XVhy shouldnlt he have smiled? There were seven letter men hack, to say noth- ing of a scrappy squad of seconds and reserves who showed promise of giving those letter men plenty of competition for a first team berth. The old monarch must have had some method of looking ahead, for his confidence was justified. After the curtain was drawn to close the year's football activities, it was found that the team had won eight games, lost one, and tied one, scoring a total of 203 points to their opponents 70. The team would have been unable to make such a record had they not displayed fine sportsmanship in every phase of the game, ln adversity the team never lost its fine fighting spirit. This V930 edition of the Little Giantsu proved to he a team of no stars but all stars. An impatient, eager throng of Fremonters journey to Harmon Field to witness the curtain raiser with the team from YVhitmer which was rumored to have been giving some of the large Toledo teams real work in practice games. The game was a real hair-raiser and Called forth every ounce of strength which our little Giants possessed to keep the upper edge in the game.

After a week of intensive practice a greatly improved but still unexperienced team romped about Harmon Field rising to great heights to defeat the Kenton eleven by the rather impressive score of 39-0. Early in the first period the 'Purple and White tide began the scoring march which never stopped in spite of the ever-increasing fight displayed by the opponents. VVell, that looked some better-wait a minute-look whatls coming, none other than the great Findlay team. Letls be out with it right away and admit we were defeated by a good team. The score was, needless to say, Fremont 13, Findlay 32. It was not so one-sided as the score seems to indicate, however. In the first half each team had to its credit seven first downs, and when the gun barked marking the end of the first half our HLittle Giantsw were showing real power. But the third quarter was not so good. The fast Findlay eleven, led by one of Uhio's best running and passing backs, opened an end-running and passing attack that literally swept the home town boys off their feet. This outburst of whatever you wish to call it netted the visitors two touchdowns, which, added to the two they had garnered in the First half, discouraged some Fremonters. Not to be downed, however, our boys scored their second touchdown via the aerial route late in the fourth pe1'iod. Do not talce it so hard, thoughg remember this was the only defeat of the year.

Throughout the game our goal never was threatened. Next came the highly praised Oberlin team to open the league season in Fremont. lf predictions meant anything this game would have proved to have been one of our greatest stumbling blocks in the league race. But a grim and determined Fremont team took the field that afternoon and playing one of the best games of the season, displayed hne scoring strength. The first half ended 12-6. The Giants came back even stronger in the second half and pushed three more touchdowns over the goal of the college townerls, while the lndians were held scoreless. lVowl lVhat a game, what a team. lt was a well nigh perfect machine that afternoon. A favorable future was predicted by many followers that afternoon and why not, after such a showing? Another Saturday rolled around bringing forth another opponent, this time Willard High eleven. Not forgetting the previous week's performance the boys left the city in high spirits to pay the Railroaders a visit.

VVe managed to score in every quarter, although We were outplayed many times, especially in the first and last periods. The boys were indeed playing under difficulties since injuries greatly hindered the machine which ran so smoothly a week before. That game caused some of the more skeptical fans to begin their pessimistic predictions, but they proved groundless. VVhen the next game with none other than the highly respected 'liifhn Columbians was finished, Fremont was again on top. You will remember what happened a year ago when we met the Columbians: if you don't, so much the better. Tiffin had four of that team back, but we proved to have just a little more of that thing which wins football games than they, for we added a third league victory to our list by the rather impressive score of 25-o. As usual the game was made interesting by some beautiful playing and hard fighting, to say nothing of a now and then personal combat. 'liifiinls score resulted from a ninety yard run through an apparently sleepy Fremont team which was, by this time, made less formidable as a result of several substitutions. That game started a very strenuous week of football. Tuesday, being Armistice day, brought forth another game which was non-league but plenty tough. The fast Tiffin Calvert team appeared and held the Fremont team scoreless for two periods. The Fremont crowd was apparently worried, and why not?

VVe did manage to get two touchdowns across the opponent's goal to make the final score 12-0. This marked the 'flfittle Giants, last stand on Harmon Field in the 1930 season. Happy days came again, however, for after three days of preparation we met the powerful Norwalk high eleven which can always be counted upon to give Fremont a tough battle. XVell, folks, it was some contest. Our own Giants scored a touch- down and the extra point in the first five minutes of play by a constant drive down the gridiron. After recovering a punt, the boys, by incessant pounding, scored another touchdown. Before the half ended, however, Norwalk was able to score by one of her long passes. The half ended with the score standing l3-7 in our favor. Next came the nerve-racking second half. The game seemed to be on ice after we had scored on an intercepted pass, making th score lf?-7. ln just a few minutes, however. another long pass netted Norwalk 6 more points, after which they added the extra point. Now the fun ended. Norwalk started throwing those forward passes right, left and all directions, turning the Fremont fans absolutely frantic. Finally, when every second seemed an eternity to Fremont fans, the gun barked and we were on the long end of the 19-1-l score.

Nevertheless the teams waded in up to their necks, and it was a battle displaying all traditional ferocity. Neither team took a time out period. lt was such a disagreeable day that neither team could do the spectacular things that they were capable of doing. Due to fumbles we were in scoring position twice in the first quarter, but were unable to push the ball across. The Blue Streaks scored in the first play of the second quarter. After that it was a nip and tuck battle, neither team made any great threats until the fourth quarter came along and what a quarter that turned out to be. After a long forward pass Fremont had the ball on the one yard line, and in one play the score was tied. Just one little point between a championship, undisputed, and a tie. blight as well get it over, l guessg the pass was knocked down and so the score remained 6-6. ln the remainder of this period both teams played creditable ball, Fremont being on the defensive much of the time. That was the 1930 football season, and we had possession of our first piece of the championship since 1920. Let us give the boys a real handy they worked hard and deserve the credit.

It was out on the field where their qualities of leadership and character were put to a severe test. To endure such a vigorous football program and to keep up in studies, they found it necessary to keep themselves physically lit, to make the best use of their spare time, and to sacrifice many lesser pleasures. The football squad was divided into two groups, one was known as the First Twenty-two and the other as the Reserves. Under this plan each division had its own coaches and each held its own exercises and scrimmages. To make football more interesting for the Reserves, a complete schedule of games was planned for them. The schools that the Reserves played were 'iioledo Libbey, bt.

To open the season the Little Giants, Bobcats, or what haveyou, dropped a game to a fast Monroeville quintet by a score of 20-16. This was our first game while the opponents had been working together for several weeks. The game was hard fought, but the visitors had the final scoring punch which enabled them to take the honors home with them. A somewhat crippled Fremont team took the floor in the next game against Bucyrus. Three regulars were unable to play because of injuries or sickness. The brilliant basketshooting of the opponents completely bewildered our team, but the home boys still displayed the never-say die spirit. The visitors returned home with the somewhat one-sided score 20-12. The next night the Bobcats journeyed to Tiliin to meet their old rivals, the boys from the Junior Order. We helped dedicate their new gym, and very obligingly let them win their first game in it. We still were hampered with mother nature's interference since some were still on the sick list. Regardless of that we lost 24-10. The following week the Erie East High team from Erie, Pa., came to Fremont on their tour and really took our boys into camp. The boys were unable to cope with Erie's fast passing and basket shooting attack and fell as the 28-11 score indicates, before the visitors' onslaught. On New Years night we met t. joe in the first game of the city series. The first quarter proved that it was to be a real battle. Fremont led 6-5 at the end of the first quarter.

The CROGHAN of 1931 Binkley Break l O'Farrell forged further ahead and were comfortably leading at the beginning of the last quarter. What a quarter that was, fast, furious. and plenty rough. St. joe tied the score and sunk a foul. In a moment the game ended, and St. joe was on the long end of a 20-19 score. The next opponent was the fast rangy Ashland team which had a very favorable past record. They came and proved to be very clever ball handlers and appeared to be out to avenge the defeat they met at our hands last year. They were able to score 21 points while we managed. to get only 11. Our league season opened, at Bellevue, with rather disastrous results. The Maroons dis- played a surprising scoring attack which really swept our Giants off their feet. Our boys did not click and were able to score only 11 points while Bellevue chalked up 22. Put that long face somewhere else and smile, for look what happened next. Nothing less than an 18-16 victory over the Sandusky's Blue Streaks. VVhat1 a fitting dedication that was for our new W. W. Ross Gym. The game was a fast and furious contest throughout. We jumped into the lead in the second quarter and never were headed, but nevertheless, the game was so close that the final result was in doubt until thc Final gun barked. The student body did its part by splendidly supporting the team. An inspired Fremont quintet journeyed to Oberlin the next week. After a rather slow Hrst half the Bobcats started sinking baskets from all angles to pile up 36 points while Oberlin could get only 18. It looks like welre off at last, folks. Napoleon came to Fremont the next night and by a last minute rally was able to defeat us by a 22-19 score. Do not get disgusted reader-remember that the night before the boys played real basketball and completely overwhelmed the Indians. WVe led Napoleon most of the time in this game.

The purple and white machine was working to perfection, and the upper Croghan street lads, unable to meet our fast barrage of baskets, went down to a 42-16 defeat. VVhen VVillard came the following Saturday night, the Fremonters continued at their breakneck pace. Our visitors were only able to hit the basket twice while we seemed able to sink them from any angle. As the half ended, the score stood 22-4. The second team which went into the game early in the second half was able to hold the Railroaders scoreless and at the same' time increased the score to 3+-4. The Giants advanced another notch in the league race by defeating Tiiiin 26-17. The boys did not play the type of ball against the Columbians that they had been playing, but the margin was comfortable enough to convince fans that we were able contenders for league honors. The Bobcats seemed to have their third Little Big Seven basketball title in four years nearly won, but as you know strange things happen in this day and age. VVe lost the game with Norwalk from the foul line as we made only 1 in 8 attempts. Fast and furious is no description for this contest. A long Tom in the very last minute of play proved our downfall. The game ended in a mad frenzy of excitement as each team was fighting for the ball. The final score was 21-19. Our last scheduled game was with Findlay. The battle proved to be one of those hcart- breakers. VVhile not coming up to some past performances, the team displayed great fight. When the game ended, Findlay was topping us by only one point, the score was 28-27. VVe went into the tournament with high hopes, but they burst like a bubble. It really was sad. The team plainly was otf form. They seemed to have slumped back into pre-league form. Regardless of the disastrous 22-16 defeat at the hands of the Columbians, the boys and their coaches must be complimented on the great improvement they showed as the season progressed.

They held daily uractices l l 3- , , l under the direction of Klr. Lauh, who drilled them in fundamentals. The Reserves played a larger schedule of games than any other team in the school. Some of the schools that they met were Bellevue, NVillard, Tithn, Toledo Lihhey, Findlay, St. ,loe's, and St, Annls. Preceding the County Tournament the Reserves played all the county teams in the new gym. This was done to acquaint the County Cagers with the large floor. The games were very closely contested.

It is one which will undoubtedly grow greatly in the future and yield rich harvests. The youthful players not only derive a great amount of enjoyment from playing the game, hut they are also early taught the meaning and demands of active competition on the playing floor. Fremont's -lunior High team, the past year, played ten games. Five games were won and five were lost. Two of the tive losses were suffered from l remont's ancient rival, Sandusky. The overtowering sive of the Sandusky team was a handicap to Fre-' mont's Junior squad that could not he overcome. The training of the .lunior team was in the compete care of lllr. Clruse, a new member to the coaching staff the past year. Fundamentals of basketball were empha- sized. By this method he hoped to lay the hasis for future sueeessful haskethall playing.

Now, although Queen Ball has given and received many a hard bump, she has been put into a locker, patiently waiting for next year's squad. By this time she may have he- gun the task of looking over the prospects for the following season. However, some- time ago we found her relating the happenings of last winter. The Huskies were off with a flying start. The first game was played with Bucyrus. The visiting team was kept on the run from the very beginning. It was indeed exciting! Each girl did her part well, and, for the most part, the team work was outstanding. Although Fremont was ahead at the end of each quarter, the game was very close and ended with a score of 41 to 41. With this fine start in mind, the girls worked furiously during the week to be ready for the next game. This was a well played game, but the Bloomville team did not fight with its old time vigor. It was a decided victory for Fremont, the score standing 42 to 24 at the end of the game. Our guards were especially fast, keeping with their girls constantly. Much credit must be bestowed on the faithful guards, but the forwards can not be forgotten. The Huskies, for years, have had Bloomville, as well as Bucyrus, on their Stull One Point Rimelspach Thirty-two The CROGHAN 0131931 Paul Handling the Ball D. Mooney schedule. A friendly feeling has always been prevalent between the teams. The first team the Huskies met in the new Ross Auditorium was VVillard. Not much progress was shown in the first half, but the second half yielded entirely different results. Both teams played with more spirit. The guards did fairly well, while the forwards played steadily. The latter worked some fine plays for the audience, which seemed to be well satisfied with Fremontls victory of 37 to 33. The next game, when the Huskies journeyed to Port Clinton, was the first that the girls played out of town. Port Clinton's forwards were fast, but Fremont sank more shots in the second and third quarters than its opponents. However, Port Clin- ton took the Victory by 30 to 25. Our guards acquitted themselves creditably all the way through, but the forwards did not come up to true form. The game as a whole was slow. Next, the Huskies went a ainst Bucyrus for the second time-this time on the y 1 1 . g ' . . opponent s floor. lhe Huskies were all set to win. Every one had plenty of hght, but the whole team was off on shots. The game was lost by a score of 2-l to 31. During the week of dedication ceremonies of the new High School building, the girls played the Liberty Township team. The Huskies were particularly anxious to win that game but luck was against them, for the score was 34 to 25 in favor of Liberty Township. The guards played quite well, considering that a regular was out Magsig H. Mooney Practice makes Perfect 5 1 .f'- rl-'ffiin si:'i! 5 -Q ' , .f 'i'- V5 3- ' n fllli ' ' - - 1 V it' . ' fl - is .

The game was both spirited and exciting, and both teams showed true sportsmanship. In in the middle of the following week the Huskies held a practice game with Clyde. This was the ninth game with county teams. The triumph over Clyde, to- gether with the other victories over county teams in practice games, showed the com- parative strength of Fremont's team. This game also marked the last time that many of the girls played on their home floor. The girls then prepared for their last trip which was a long one to Mediiizt. Here. especially, the Huskies showed the results of good training throughout the year. The game can easily be compared with the fast and exciting one played with Bucyrus at the first of the season. The one difference, however, struck rather hard at the Huskies because the score at the end, -F5 to 38, was in favor of Medina. When the new gymnasium was completed in the middle of the season, the girls had to change some of their tactics to accommodate themselves to the new Hoor. He- fore long they became used to the spacious gym and were very proud of it. Before the opening of the girls, season, the public did not know exactly how to receive the Huskies. In the majority of cases the public thought girls' games were slow and uninteresting. Those who witnessed the girls' games this year were ab- solutely convinced that girls' basketball can be a very exciting and interesting spectacle to watch. ln spite of a few defeats, the team played on undaunted to the very end, and showed itself as great in defeat as in victory.

After particularly strenuous pre-season workout the squad, composed of both veterans and new material, entered a triangular meet, on April 19, with Clyde and Bellevue. Led by Captain Ross, Fremont easily won the meet. The Little Giantsy' scored 82 points while Bellevue scored -18 and Clyde 31. Two days later the team journeyed to Port Clinton. Although hindered by cold winds and very disagreeable weather, they won their second meet. Fremont took six out of eleven places and scored 51 points. Port Clinton collected -1-1 points. While Track Coach Ed Weil was being married at Cincinnati, Coach Oldfather took twelve members of the squad to the Defiance Relays. The Little Giants finished fifth, scoring 1-1,VQ points. The relay team, composed of Redding, George Newton, and Jones, finished second to Columbus Central, who won the event with the record time of 3 143-1. One of the biggest surprises of the season occurred on llflay 3, when we defeated Waite High 65-57. Fremontls relay team again starred and won this race. J. VV. Miller was high scorer with 18 points to his credit. Fremont was host to the Little Big Seven Track lkleet on lWay 10. Sandusky placed first with 63M, Norwalk sec- ond with 52, Fremont third with 38 points. One state and eight league records were broken. Bettridge of Sandusky was high scorer of the day. Ross and Newton were the only event winners for Fremont, but Miller, jones, and Redding scored points. Next came the district meet at llflansfield. Sandusky won this meet with -10 points. Fremont was able to gain only 162 points, but Ross, Miller, Jones, and Newton placed, thus qualifying for the state meet.

Antesberger The Ciroghan Staff? AST September it was doubtful as to whether or not the class of '31 would have an annual. The problem was wholly financial. l-leretofore, the finances of the Croghans have been the cause of much last minute rush and worry. The class of 1931 was told it could publish an annual only if, after two weeks time, enough year books were sold to finance the project. This challenge was accepted and the require- ments were met. This was the first year that finance was the least worry of the annual staff. If it had not been for the work and co-operation of the members of thr- Senior class this year, further annuals would have been discontinued. Since the first publication of the year book in 1917, never, until this year, has an annual been published before the last' few weeks of school. The fifteenth edition of the Croghan was distributed early in May. Mr. Appleman was faculty advisor for the Croghan Staff. This was his first year of service in such a capacity. Lawrence Brokate, editor-in-chief, was indis- pensable to the success of the 1931 Croghan. Angela Burek and Norma Jane Coonrod were of very valuable assistance. They willingly and immediately typed all copy for this book. Uther members of the staff gave their hearty co-operation in performinff the multitudinous tasks incurred in publishing this issue of the Croghan.

The staff's purpose in editing the Chatter was to promote and record school life with equal attention given to each activity and organization in the school. Several new and interesting features were run in this year's Chatter, such as Historical Spots, From Dot to Don, Editor's lldail Box, and an Organization column. Many pictures were also used throughout the year. All these improvements were made with hopes of winning a First Class Honor Rating as given by the National Scholastic Press Association of which the Chatter is a charter member. Interest of the student body in this activity has been shown by the increased sales of the paper this year over sales in previous years. Staff members this year took journalism one semester last year, while students who are chosen to make up next yearls staff will have had one whole year of journalism. Each member of this yearls staff tried out for the position he or she holds, during the publication of one of last year's issues of the Chatter. Positions on the staff were given to those people who proved to advisors that they were best fitted and most capable of doing the work satisfactorily in one particular line. In order to help school newspaper staffs improve and make better their publica- tions, the National Scholastic Press Association held its ninth national convention in Cleveland. Sectional meetings were held. each in regard to some particular field of journalism and work on a newspaper. Elvira Plagman, Geraldine Knox, Paul Neason, Edward Brehm, and Lawrence Brokate of the Chatter staffg Jean Forrest, Opal Overmyer, Loretta Hench, and Henry Billow of the journalism class, Robert Roush, Fo rl y The CROGHAN of 1931 Miss Lisle, and llflr. lllarshall attended this N. S. P. A. convention on December -l, 5, 6, to gain information for the betterment of the paper. At the beginning of the present school year a class of twenty-seven journalism students set out with high ambitions to become future editors, managers, assistants, and reporters. At the very beginning each student was told to treasure his reporterls notebook into which daily assignments and results of a nose for newsn were jotted down. Assignments soon meant plenty of mental labor, the class learned. Work during the first semester by this class was devoted to the learning of general facts in journalistic writing from Ottois Uslournalism for High Schools. Features, Hilights, Whoozits, jokes, Historical Spots, and Breezes were Written by members of the journalism class. All these necessary parts of the paper were then edited by staff members. For six issues of the Chatter during the second semester the journalism class tried out for different positions on next year's staff under the guidance and supervision of present staff members and faculty advisors. Positions on next year's staff will be given to those students who, during these tryouts, prove to be most dependable and capable. The last issue of the paper in Mayf will be edited by the 1931-32 staff. Trips through the Fremont Daily News, Toledo Blade, llflaxwellis Print Shop, and a Toledo engraver's were taken by the class. Christmas and Easter issues of the Chatter lVIagazine, literary supplements to the Chatter were edited by following members of the journalism class: Associate editors, Jean Forrest, Loretta Hench, and Opal Overmeyerg assistant editors, Kathleen lwoore, Rona Walton, Helen Snyder, Helen Kistler, Alma Kiser, Doris Greenman, Eliza- beth Dedrick, llflarjorie Nlischke, Evelyn Laird, and Henry Billow.

The ability of the students on the squad this year to extemporize effectively and to think clearly while on their feet is seldom found in high school debate teams. The question for debate this year was: Resolved, that chain stores are detrimental to the best interests of the United States public. The aihrmative team, captained by Virginia Reeves, participated in four debates. They won from Carey, lost to Perrysburg, and debated a no-decision debate with Tiffin. They also went down to defeat against Gibsonburg. This latter debate was for district championship. Burton Jonson and Thayne McDonald were also on this team. Robert Anderson headed the negative team which debated six times. This team lost no debates. It won from Milbury, took Greenwich and VVillard by forfeit, and debated St. johns College, Gibsonburg, and Tiffin in no-decision debates. The other members of this team were Bernadine Horning and Earl Rosenberger. The captains of both teams were veterans of one season at the beginning of the year, but this was the first experience for the other four members. The prospects for next year are very good as only one is a senior, Robert Anderson, who has debated for two years and has been a team captain both years. P All the members of the A and B squads earned sufficient points to become members of the National Forensic league, the national honor society for debaters. The members are divided into four ranks according to the number of points won. Robert Anderson and Virginia Reeves both attained the highest rank, that of Distinction. VVe placed four students in the third highest place, Burton Jonson, Thayne McDonald, Bernadine Horning, and Earl Rosenberger reeciving the degree of honor. The members of the B-squad that won the degree of merit are Robert Norton, Jane Wright, and Naomi Bloker. I This year a state speech and debate contest was held. The captains of our teams entered and debated both sides of the question.

Student: Council HE Student Council is probably the most potent group in Ross High School. It is repre- sentative of the student life of the school and has much to do with building school morale and good school spirit. lt is composed of students elected in their respectise home rooms as representatives to the council and also as presidents of the home rooms. This includes all grades in both junior and Senior high schools. Undoubtedly the most important work of the council this year was the establishing of a Point System. This is a system by which points are given the students for participation in extra-curricular activities. Points are given for exceptional scholastic work, and all work not covered by the regular school credit system. Honorary diplomas are given to all Seniors who make application for them, and in some cases are valued more highly than the regular school diploma. A typical project carried on by this group was Courtesy NVeek. This week was set aside at the first part of the year to create a better feeling and understanding among the students and between the students and the faculty. It also taught the students to be courteous in the corri- dors and on the school grounds. This undertaking had a profound ellect on the student body which was evident throughout the rest of the year. The Council as a whole was behind Pep meetings and all student activities carried on by the clubs of the school. It cooperated with the members of the Senior Class in making the dedication vaudeville and open house a most enjoyable occasion for the patrons of the school. It is designated in the constitution of the Council that the president should be a member of the Senior Class, the vice-president a junior and the Secretary a Sophomore. The highest ol-lice that can be conferred upon a student is to be elected to the presidency of the Student Council. President .,,,, ,,.,,.. . Robert E.

This has been accomplished through various activities conducted at the regular meetings. The president wore a Roman toga at all club gatherings. Interesting talks on the life and customs of the Roman people were presented by the members of the club. Plays and Latin songs were other enjoyable activities. Twice each year a social gathering was held. All Cicero and Virgil students are eligible for meinhership and also the Caesar pupils, who have a high rating.

This year for the hrst time a Home Economics district conference was held in Sandusky for the purpose of discussing problems relating to home and school life and of making future plans for the carrying on of the club's work. Two girls repre- sented Fremont at this meeting. During the year the members sponsored a bake sale, a llfiothers' and Daughters, banquet, and a faculty luncheon. The girls also helped spread cheer among the less fortunate by collecting spring flowers for the hospital and by distributing food at Thanksgiving and Christmas time to needy people in the community. The qualifications for membership require that a girl take two periods of Voca- tional Home Economics. A C average in that subject and passing grades in all others are necessary.

These boys were chosen on a basis of ability, personality, and habits. The Hi-Y has been a leading club in the school since 1926. The Hi-Y strives to create, maintain, and extend a high standard of Christian character throughout the school and community. lt tries to uphold clean living, clean speech, clean scholarship, and clean athletics. This year the Hi-Y Club was composed of thirty members. lt met every Monday evening at 7:30. Any boy in the junior or senior class is eligible to come to the meetings. Mr. Ogden and Mr. VVeiler are the present club advisors. Many things have been accomplished this year. The club published football programs and sold refreshments at all the home games. The Father and Son banquet, which is an annual affair sponsored by the Hi-Y was gaiety itself. For a while it resembled a carnival in Venice, with the air full of Water-filled balloons, with whistles blowing, and youthful voices loud in gay banter. Songs were sung and addresses were given by noted speakers. Nearly all the football boys and their fathers attended this banquet. To become a member of the Hi-Y club, the student must attend three meetings in succes- sion. During this time he must find out what the 4 Pls are and learn the creed. ln attending the third meeting, the club has a roundtable discussion of the student involved. The student becomes a temporary member if the club feels that he will adopt its standards and give his service to all Club activities. lf the student shows good intentions in the following six weeks, he is eligible to the formal induction. At this time he receives his pin, triangular in shape, hav- ing a white cross on a black and red enamel setting. Orlicers President . .. . , ..,,. .... . .. Robert Bowlus Vice-President . .. ....

The club was formerly called the Hi-VV, a local club, but is this year aiiilizlted with the national Girl Reserve organization. As the work of the club is symbolized by a triangle the girls Chose the Blue Triangle as the name for their chapter. The purpose'of the Club is to face life squarely and to tind and give the best. To develop leadership, friendship, and to help raise the standards of living among the members that they might be an honor and to bc of service to the school and community is the aim of the club. This year a constitution was written and work was begun on the club projects. The club is divided into groups or workshops which study and carry on the activities of the organization. Following are the workshops which were most popular with the girls: Dramatics, sewing, art and literature. The girls choose their own workshops, but are allowed to work in only one at a time. There are also standing committees such as, service, social, finance, program, music, and membership. Through these workshops the organization is made worth while and gives each member a better chance to do individual work. Before becoming a member each girl must state why she wishes to be a Girl Reserve and what she expects to gain from joining the organization. The original club, the Hi-WV, had thirty-six members. The new club now has one hundred and eighteen. Members are received twice a year from the Sophomore, junior and Senior classes. Any girl who is in one of these classes is eligible if she is willing to live up to the standards of the club. President., Clarissa Stull Seoy and Treas. ...Kathryn Struble Vice-President .

There were sixty-eight commercial students who belonged to this club. All Juniors and Seniors who had an average of CH in three subjects, two of which were commercial. and the other a major, were eligible for membership. The club met on the first Thursday of every month. The purpose of the club is to promote higher scholarship, to broaden minds, and to get the business manls point of view of the practical side of commercial work. lt is also to demonstrate new devices in the commercial field. To improve the spelling of the members, the club had spell downs during club meetings. This tended to make the organization very beneficial as well as interesting. The Commercial Club was organized in the fall of 1926 and has been active in school life ever since. VVhen it was first organized it had only thirty members. This year there have been the initiation of new members, election of ofiicers, and the regular meetings. There have also been some parties.

Banking took place on Tuesday mornings during the homeroom period. Every member acted as teller in one homeroom and received deposits of the students and teacher. A captain, appointed by the advisor, Miss Reuter, was in charge of each grade. The money was checked with deposit slips in the bookkeeping room during oflice practice class period. A record of each homeroom and grade was kept. The Senior class averaged 1009? for most of the school year. The entire school averaged 9052 or more each week-a record high in comparison with other schools. The purpose of banking was to instill ideas of thrift and to encourage each pupil to open a bank acocunt. Thus the student learned the principle of economic management earlv in life, and formed the line habit of thrift necessary for success. It was surprising to Il0te how the deposit of a small amount of money each week soon grew into a worthy sum. On the wall of one classroom was a card which said Someone will bank your money, why not you? Similar bits of advice had been placed in all rooms by the banking association. ln service to the school, this organization ranked among the highest for it aided every member and teacher during the entire year. Its sole object for the future is to obtain ex en a higher percentage in banking than the present.

VVainwrightg now it is in the capable hands of hir. VValter Sells. To create and extend a deeper appreciation for good music has been the aim of the band since it was organized. The students are chosen according to their musical ability, and their qualifications for membership are determined by the director. A pupil who has been in the Band all four years of his high school career is given a credit toward graduation. The Band has played at all home football and basketball games and also has followed the team to some out of town battles. The winter concert of the Band was ably presented and was very well received. The most important musical event of the year was the Band Festival held in Fremont lVIay first and second. There were ten bands here and over four hundred high school musicians participated. The members had new purple and white uniforms this year, and they looked very handsome when they were on parade under the direction of the drum major, Francis Welsh. The president of the Band for the past year was Harland Anderson, the student director, Richard Barron: and the librarian, Norman Huss. The school also has an organization called the Junior Band. The members of this group are without suflicient experience and have had little opportunity to demon- strate their ability. They hope to become members of the Senior Group next year.

VV. Ross School celebrates its tenth anniversary. The club was organized in 1921 by Mrs. Datesman with twenty-two girls as members. This number has been increased at various times to that at the present time the club has sixty active members. The former members were the guests of the present club at the annual program which was given April 24 in the Ross auditorium. Several of the songs sung on the first program were repeated this year. All the former members were invited to the platform to sing the last song with the club, A birthday cake carried by a child of one of the former members was presented to the club and a candle ceremony followed. Mrs. Esther Bradley Schneider who was the student accompanist for the original Glee Club again accompanied the girls. The outstanding numbers on the program were the cantata I Hear America Singing by Koontz, and the two religious numbers Oh Divine Redeemer by Gounod, and Oh for the Wings of a Dove by Mendelssohn-Bartholdy. The cantata was accompanied by two pianos, Margaret Mae Engler, a student, playing with Mrs. Schneider. Several girls of the club played two piano selections and solos. This was the first year that Freshmen have belonged to the club. This was done because it gives the girls a year's more experience and so strengthens the club. Any Freshman girl who has a voice suitable for this special work and who is likely to remain in the glee club until graduation may become a member. The members are chosen through tryouts. The organization gives the opportunity for part singing in a more elaborate form than in the ordinary choruses. lt also perfects the sense of harmony and prepares the student for continued work after leaving school.

The Spanish Club is. accordingly, a rather recent enterprise, being only five years old. One of the major purposes of this organization is to promote interest in. and understanding of Spanish-speaking people. especially in the Latin-American countries. ln order to facilitate the learning of Spanish, songs are sung and games are played in that language. lncidentally, students are brought together in good social contact. The membership of the club consisted of second year Spanish students and those in the first year Spanish class whose grades averaged A or B. Seven members of the first year class in Spanish met that requirement, and were initiated into the club at the Marcli meeting. They were: Harland Anderson, Edgar Bender, Jean Forrest, Loretta Hench, Lois l-letrick, and VVilliam NVolf. Regular meetings were held in the evening on the fourth Tuesday of each month. The emblem of the club is a rectangular pin. VVorked in silver are a lion and a castle, mounted upon yellow and red background, respectively.

It aims to promote further practice in the use of conversational French and to create interest in that foreign nation and its people. True to the clubls name, which means The Terrible Childrenf' the members sought a good time at all the club meetings. During this year the motto was changed to a more characteristic one-f'Etudions pour passer, or in English, 'fLet us study to pass. Students of the second year French class are eligible to this organization. After three unexcused absences a member is automatically dropped. Twenty-five cents must be paid for each absence unless a good excuse is given to the attendance committee. At monthly meeting attempts to entertain in Parisian style were carried out as far as possible. Bridge was played in strictly French terms. Naturally everyone looked forward to the close of the meeting when refreshments were served. Through the advisor, llliss Ellsworth, French correspondents were obtained, and interesting communications were conducted through the mail. Some students received pictures, cards and odd souvenirs from their European friends. The biggest thrill was to read the letters, usually written in French. but often in English, which contained many laughable mistakes.

A. HIS club was newly organized this year. Heretofore, there was a local Agricultural Club in this department, but never was the F. F. A. Chapter brought into Ross High. The letters F. F. A. stand for Future Farmers of America. Early colonists in Virginia were called First Farmers of Virginia, and from this phrase originated the title of Future Farmers of America. This is a state and nation Wide organization with 150 chapters in Ohio and many thousand in the nation. The organization consisted only of boys taking Vocational Agriculture, who were interested in the development of agricultural work. The F. F. A., being' a national organization, followed a regular course of procedure in its meetings There are four degrees which all members are Capable of ob-taining. The first degree to which all members belong is called Greenhand. The second degree is the Future Farmer. All members who have a year of supervised vocational Agriculture are eligible. The third degree is the State Farmer. To obtain this, one must have two years of Vocational Agri- culture and must be voted in by the state at a state convention. The fourth degree is the National Farmer. About three or four are voted in at a state convention. The club has done a great deal of work this year. One of the projects was the testing of seed corng another was the conducting of a pest hunt in which thousands of sparrows and other pests were killed. A livestock judging team was also sponsored by the Club. Officers President.. ,, . Earl Rosenberger Vice-President ,. ,Merle Pearson Secretary ,Y,,,,,, ,,,, , ,,,,.

The next year it was placed under the guidance of Miss Ruth Robertson and later under Miss Louise Bell who supervised the club until this year. Mr. Timmons and Miss Meade were the able advisors of the club this year. The othcers for the current year were Clarissa Stull, president, Raymond Zweilly, vice presidentg VValter Strohl, secretary and treasurer. The members are chosen by competitive tryouts which are held each year to determine the dramatic ability of the students. The club's aim is to interest students in drarnatics and to teach those interested to express themselves dramatically. ln this way it fosters the dramatic activities of the school. Only Sophomore, junior, and Senior pupils arc eligible for membership, Because of the lack of stage facilities during the tirst semester the club was hampered 'in its work.However during the last part of the year the club made up for the lack of activity during the first semester. A one act play, Peanuts, was produced at the dedication of the VV. VV. Ross building. Three one act plays were produced for the public in April. They were Good Medicine, The Valiant, and an original play written by a high school student for the tirst annual play contest sponsored. by the Masque. This play was the ullntinished Story by Catherine Haas. A tive dollar gold piece was offered as a prize in this contest. For the formal initiation program each member took part in one of three one act plays which were directed by the former active members. These plays were Sparkin, directed by Clarissa Stull and Loretta Henchg A'The XVedding Rehearsal, Raymand Zweilly, WValter Strohl, and Robert Anderson, and Saved, Maynard Corlett and Karl Antesberger. Fifty-nine 9' , The CROGHAN of 1931 Wlpeanutsw CHN SIMPSON, Walter Strohl, and Emma Simpson, Loretta Hench, would have led a very happy married life if it had not been for John's desire for peanuts. Emma feared for John's health and hysterically implored him to realize what their situation would be if he died. John, being quite meek, finally submitted to treatment. Dr. Cutter, Maynard Corlett, an imposing quack with a prodigious vocabulary prescibed for his patient. As the doctor was diagnosing, Mary Simpson, Anna May Delp, the daughter, entered and is discovered to have eaten peanuts. The doctor soothes the overwrought Emma and she succumbed to his cleverness. John's mother-in-law, Dawn Perkins, now appeared on the scene. The doctor left and the mother seized the situation and ably abused poor John. John, always having resented his mother-in-law's interference, became the agressor and frightened them with a sudden display of temper. Emma's mother left by the nearest exit. A very satisfactory Good Nighti' resulted and John cautiously returned to his pea- nuts, at last master of his home. Dramatic Club Program 1 HE DRAMATIC CLUB of Ross High set a precendent this year by present- ing to the public a program of one-act plays. The actors received much praise for their work, but the real success of the program must be given to the club advisors, Mr. Timmons, Miss Mead, and Mr. Bone. The program was composed of three plays which were at times serious and dramatic and at other times exceed- ingly humorous. The first presentation Was Good lNIedicine,l' a comedy sketch. This play told the story of a young doctor honest, serious, and very emotional and his wife. energetic, cheerful, and a real helpmate, who were trying to make a start in the world. ' At a time when both were highly discouraged Hetty Sage, a large, mannish Sixty 4 l The CTROGHAN of 1931 business woman arrived to be examined. The doctor refused to substantiate any of her imaginary ills, among which were Bright's disease, heart trouble, and tuber- culosis. Hetty then changed character and revealed herself as an eccentric millionaire and amply rewarded the doctor for his honesty. The parts of the young doctor and his wife were played by Burton Johnson and La Vonne Youngman while the part of Hetty was cleverly played by Mary Stokes. The next number on the program was 'fThe Unfinished Story. This play was written by Catherine Haas, a Sophomore. lt won first prize in the first annual Dramatic Club play-writing contest. The scene took place in the home of Mr. Trevelyan, who was an English nobleman. When the curtain rose, lWrs. Trevelyan, played by Antoinette Brehmg Mr. Trevelyan, Raymond Zweilyg lhliss Egerton, Clarissa Stull, Lord Arbuthnot fher fianceej, Karl Antesbergerg Lady Arbuthnot, Francis lVIagsigg Philips, Henry Billovvg Sir Henry, Richard Pelto, and Countess Berchtold, Antoinette Walters, were assembled in the drawing room. Gordon Tremont, an explorer, impersonated by Harland Anderson, was announced by the Butler, Robert Bowlus. To settle an argument whether truth was stranger than fiction, between Philips and Sir Henry, Tremont related the tragic story of a young adventurer who really was Gordon himself. However, this fact was known only to lwiss Egerton, the girl with whom Tremont had fallen in love before leaving for Africa. He told how the fellow was found after being beaten and left almost dead by his assailants, and how for months he lay raging with fever. At first Tremont said that the man had died, but' on further questioning admits sorrowfully that he did not. The evening's entertainment up to that time had been comparatively humorous. lt was now time for some gripping drama. VVithout a doubt The Valiant was the high spot in the evening's entertainment. The play was a production that de- pended upon the atmosphere which was built around it. The scene was laid in the YVarden's office in the State's Prison at VVethersfield, Connecticut. The play dealt with the incidents an hour previous to the execution of the prisoner, James Dyke. One was forced to hope for the criminal's pardon, but the man was finally executed. The cast included Robert Anderson as James Dyke, the prisonerg Anna May' Delp as Josephine Paris, his sister, Maynard Corlett as VVarden Holt: Robert Bowlus as Father Daly, VValter Strohl as Dan, the Jailorg and Robert Roush as VVilson, an attendant. Sixty-one f The CROGHAN of 1931 The Uperetta ff ARAVANH was presented in the high school auditorium on hiarch 27, under the direction of Nlrs. Elsie Greene Datesman. lllrs. XVilliam Schneider played the piano accompaniment. This operetta was different from those of previous years as it included pupils from practically all departments of the school. Over one hundred students were in the cast of Caravan. Teachers of the departments who assisted lvlrs. Datesman were: lVIr. Sells, orchestrag lldr. Timmons, dramaticsg llliss Tennerstedt, dancesg Klr. Flinchpaugh, drill of guardsg bliss VVilliams, art postersg Kliss Jackson and Bliss Hafford, costumesg lVIr. Bone, stage manager. The operetta was looked forward to by students as well as townspeople as one of the most brilliant events of the school year. In this one entertainment the best dramatic and musical effort of the school was represented. It required much Work and patience on the part of lwrs. Datesman, the teachers who helped her, and the cast. Action of the story centered around a group of American and British student- tourists who met in Cairo, preparatory to a journey across the desert. In a pro- logue brimful of fun and surprises, a street scene-the famous Street of Camels- in Cairo was seen. While slaves put the caravan in readiness for the trip the young folks amused themselves. A group of little lllohammedan urchins tumbled for coins and a Nlohammedan Dragoman told a tale of Cairo. Finally, just before the caravan was ready to move, the Guard drilled for them in stirring fashion. The whole was interspersed with action songs. Act l pictured the arrival at the oasis, where, at sunset, the Guard was posted Sixty-two The C R O G H of 1931 and the tourists were entertained by Arabian dancers. Here they were witnesses of a Klohammedan twilight prayer, when, without warning, they were surprised by an attack of wandering Bedouins. Guards saved the day and with the rising of the moon, peace settled over the oasis and the tourists composed themselves for slumber. In the morning, spirits of dawn, in an airy, elf-like dance, awakened the tourists to the new day. The cavalcade began its journey again and the scene closed with a stirring action song, l'Forward and Onf' Hritishers and the lNIohammedau overseer-who turns out to be a good old southern darky-furnish much of the comedy.

S1'.1'lU-sfweri A The CROGHAN of IQI Mr. Hudson R. HUDSON has been Superintendent of the lfremont Schools since W27. During his superintendency he has done much to enlarge Fremont High School and to promote the best interest of the students. VVhile the student body does not come into immediate contact with hlr. Hudson very often, it realizes that his is the hand which guides the policies of the school. His executive ability is highly respected. All thinking students recognize that the results of his efforts touch them every day, in many ways, throughout their school life. Klang of the comforts, conveniences, modern accessories, and pleasing features of the school had their inception in his brain. The latest triumph of Xlr. Hudson has been the completion, and the equipment, of the splendid new junior High School building. 'lihe spacious and wonderful audi- torium, the delightful swimming pool, and the desire to provide the best in educational facilities will be remembered as monuments to llr. H udson's constructive efforts. .Sixty-eigflzl rife C Rode H A N of 1931 Mr. Church HIS was hlr. Churchs first year as principal, in Fremont High School. Already he has gained the respect and confidence of the student body. Because of his personal interest in each student and teacher and his readiness to help others at all times, he has won our admiration. VVe have enjoyed cooperating with him in all our school activities. YVe feel that we have made rapid strides toward making Fremont High the best in the state. Bluch of this we owe to our principal who held this up to the student body as a worthy aim. He worked untiringly toward achieving that goal. He has endeavored to teach us the real meaning of true school spirit and honest sportsmanship. He has shown us the need of cooperative ehcort between all the pupils and teachers. Above all. by his admirable conduct and his dependable qualities, he has established a notable example which each student might do well to follow. Sixty-nririr The CROGHAN of 1931 NUISS FANNY Ji. DAY T is htting that the students of Fremont High School, at this time, and in this way, pay tribute to one who has served them so devotedly, She, Whose face has been so familiar in the corridors and classrooms of Fremont High School for more than a generation, elects to pass the torch to other hands. Miss Day has served her last year as a teacher in the public schools of Fremont. llliss Day seemed to emanate the spirit of the old Romans whose language she taught so long, Erect in carriage, kind and yet stern in countenance, her silver hair portraying years of accumulated wisdom, one felt that here was a teacher who was just and honest. Miss Day has taught during forty-two years of her life. Thirty of those forty- two years have been in Fremont schools. She is to he congratulated upon having done her life work so well. Friends, old and young in school, extend Wishes for a happy and indulgent future to their former companion. 0+ f V ,TY -, 4 D, 7 WDW? ,Y ,, A ,WW W, , A.

Zilles Senior Class Uififfiicers UR motto, Ad astra per asper Cto the stars thru didicultiesj, has brought us through with flying colors from insignificant freshmen to venerable seniors. Our freshman year was uneventful, but we tried to live up to the standards placed before us. We selected Lawrence Brokate as our president during our sophomore year. NVe presented the play, Twig of Thornsf, directed by Mr. Timmons. lt was a big success. The same year we won the magazine contest by selling more subscriptions than any other class. Two sophomores had principal parts in the operetta during our second year in High School. William Beach was chosen president of the class during our junior year. This year four of the leads in the operetta, Iolantbe, were held by our classmen. One of the best proms in the history of the school was given to the seniors at the lVIasonic Temple. We tried to set a standard seal for the school, but did not succeed in our junior year. Our last year has been the most eventful and successful of all our years in high school. We have accomplished the work of setting a standard seal and a better or more original ring cannot be found. VVe proved that we wanted an annual by sell- ing seven hundred subscriptions in two weeks. Previous classes have worked all year on the task of financing their annual. During our four years, we were well represented in athletics and all school activities. The class can well feel proud of the splendid cooperation it has given in every- thing that has .been undertaken. Our class is going to establish another precedent for other classes to follow. We plan to leave a permanent memorial to the high school, that has given so much pleasure and opportunity. We hope that future classes may be as successful and as happy as we have been. It is now time to bid farewell. We shall always cherish the memories of our school life in Fremont.

Ninety w I Before the roming of the white man the Wfyanzlots had a Kzfillage on the present site of Fremont. The above drawing, marle from an original painting, dated 1853, shows Fremont at the age of forty years. It had been given its present name only four years earlier. The first hardware store in the town was three years olzl. The first bank in Fremont was an infant, only two years old. Ar that time Fremont was a thriving town of the west, espevially busy in parking pork and buying wheat. It was a lasty, growing youth. A--F-T:-f The CROGHAN of 1931 Jltuunnioir' Cllass History HE Junior class was very well satisfied with its achievements during the past year. Being led by adventurous minded and ambitious young people the undertakings of the Juniors were characterized by dash and vigor. This class traveled a new road when it presented t'Skidding . This play was a highly successful comedy drama. The Juniors capitalized on their Thespian ability. ln previous years the Junior class had not attempted to present a dramatic production. The class sponsored a number of well attended dances. The dances were held in the gymnasium. The major purpose in giving the dances was to secure money with which to finance the greatest social event of the year-the Junior-Senior Prom. This climaxed, success- fully, the many accomplishments of the Juniors during the year. The Junior class cooperated with, and helped the Seniors to establish, a standard seal and crest for. the school. The standard crest will he a lasting token of the interest of the Senior and Junior classes in their school. The Junior class contributed a large number of valuable players to the athletic teams of Fremont High School. In the field of oratory and debate the juniors did equally well. Mr. A. C. Stokes, the Assistant Principal, was the trusted and popular class advisor. . OFFICERS President ..... ,..... ....... . ,....,,,,,. .

C1951 'C C Sophomore Qllass History HAT group of students could better typify the advancement and promotions made in high school life than the Sophomore class! This year we have stepped from the Freshman year and junior high to the ranks of Senior high. Here we have engaged in its activiiies with an enthusiasm and ability which caused us to be proud that we belong to such a group. Although one of the members of our class was out much of the fall and winter athletic season because of injuries he nevertheless won letters in the two major sports, football and basketball. VVe are also proud of and wish to congratulate the other six boys who participated in athletics. VVe are also elated with the showing which our girls have made in basketball. The future outlook of the Huskies is very promising for eleven ot the girls on the squad this year belonged to our class and will be with the team for two more years. These girls helped the Huskies through to victory many times. We were well represented in both the boys and girls glee clubs, the orchestra, band, and other organizations. Several of our members had important parts in the plays presented by the Masque. , On April 10 we gave a very successful dance. The money made started our fund for the annual junior-prom which is given the Seniors by the Juniors. Our officers for this year were: Harry Binkley, president, James Miller, vice-president, Donald Brokate, secretary, john Sherman, treasurer. Mr. Bone served us well as faculty advisor and much credit is due him and the officers for our successful year. VVe students have progressed far this year and shall continue to do so until we have reached the top. VVe uphold the school spirit and ideals, and above all, we are dependable. SOPHOMORES Row 1-la.

We feel that we have not failed in our purpose, for although ,we have not taken an active part in school activities this year, we have promising athletes, musicians, and leaders in all phases of school life who will be the willing and capable sucessors of their upper classmen. We believe we have shown an admirable spirit at assembly programs and pep meetings and have thereby shown our loyalty to and our interest in Fremont High School. In the future we intend to carry on as we have this year, always working together for the betterment of our class and the school so that when we graduate we may say that we have done our bit to create a worth while tradition for Fremont High School.

Our goal is success and this can be attained only through cooperation on the part of each and every student. The first step towards the goal of our class was made this year by placing various students of the class of HSS in several of the lines of school activities. The majority of the members of the boys junior high basketball team were from our class. Two of our fellow-classmen were also on the tumbling team. Both the eighth grade boys and the eighth grade girls did very well in intramural games and in personal intramural com- petition at the annual indoor track-meet. Our class is musical as well as athletic. One of the members of our class was eligible for the orchestra whlle two secured positions for themselves in the senior band. Many members of the junior band belonged to our class, and we hope to see them soon in the senior band. Our principle hobbies at present are readin,, writin',,' and 'rithmetic . Our motto is If at first we do not succeed we try, try, and try again. just be patient and the class of H353 ' will prove to its admirers that it can and will reach its goal. ETGHTH GRADE Row 1-F.

There was not much chance for our class to enter into the affairs of the school this year, but the future is very promising for us. The iirst four months of this year we attended school in the Sunday school rooms of the Presbyterian and Methodist Churches. Although we were under an unusual handicap, we have Fitted ourselves into the high school program well. We are now i11 the new Junior High School building of which everyone is very proud, and none are more proud than the members of our class. We have participated in all of the various activities that have been open to us as an unorganized class. We were represented on both the Junior High football and basketball teams. Several of our boys were regulars. VVe hope that when it is our time to keep up the fine spirit that Ross High School possesses, we will be able to do our part in carrying it on to its best.

Ross Bulillfdling HE formal dedication of the XV, VV. Ross High School was held in the new auditorium Tuesday, Fehruary 17. Beautiful purple curtains and new chairs adorned the immense stage. The auditorium, which seats eighteen hundred people, was more than half full for this impressive ceremony. The lnyocation was given hy the Rev. bl. R. VValters, pastor ot the First Preshy- terian Church. Superintendent Hudson gave a hrief history of school expansion in Fremont, hringing his talk down to our new Junior High School huilding. Klr. Carl Steinle, a partner of the Steinle XVolfe Construction Company. presented the keys of the new huilding to Dr. Kreilick, who accepted them in the name of the Board of Education. ln his response Dr. Kreilick thanked the puhlic for making such an achievement possible. Captain A. Otto Baumann then hrietly reviewed the life of the late VV. VV. Ross for whom the huilding was named. This honor was accepted hy Harry H. Ross, son of the honored VV. VV. Ross. Dr. bl. L. Cliftonc state director of education, highly praised the hoard of education and the superintendent for their work in the great undertaking. Uther speeches of the evening were made hy Harry S.

A Varied and humorous pro- Um' Iiunrlrezl four The CROGHAN of 1931 gram was presented by over two hundred pupils to an admiring and enthusiastic audience. The big program was started by the orchestra playing A'New lVIoon by Romberg. Sell's Purple and VVhite Band Varieties followed this. lXIr. Sells was the big hit in this as an old fashioned German band master. One hundred and twenty girls, dressed in green gym suits performed under the name of Tennerstedt's Klever Kapersf' They impersonated rowers, baseball players and other athletes. The large audience was completely baffled by the clever display of magic which was presented by Jack Zink, The Magical VVizard. Jack literally pulled gold fish from the horns of the orchestra and with many other tricks was one of the stars of the evening. Flinchpaugh's 'Tumbling Teamn justly received much credit in making this evening history to Ross High. The boys were well trained and gave an excellent showing. Several clowns appeared and amused the people by their funny antics. Four mummies, imported from the South, came to thc auditorium and entertained the crowd with song, dance, and humor. Two advanced students of art under Miss VVilliams, masqueraded as Trader Horn, direct from Africa, and a noted American painter. These two talented boys gave an exhibition of rapid fire caricature sketching with pencil and crayon. What seemed to be a horse, rather dilapidated in appearance, with hoofs that would not track, a disjointed neck, and a tail that acted as a. danger signal, ambled faithfully across the stage in the wake of Trader Horn. The Accordionist Supreme was one of the best received acts of the l'Vanities.,' Faust White, accordion teacher from Toledo, entertained with one of his pupils from Ross High. They played popular songs of the day and were encored many times. Girls of the Home Economic's Department gave a clever style show, representing styles of all ages starting with Eve and ending with 193l. The Fashion Reviewu was presented well and enthusiastically received. llliss Myers' Junior High girls gracefully performed a beautiful Colonial dance. The evening of entertainment was brought to a successful t conclusion by the Farce-Comedy Peanuts.,' Students of the Dramatic Club presented it to an ape- preciative audience.
