Within the covers of this annual, the Class of 1950 has tried to present a panorama of the Platt R. Spencer School from its beginning as just a part of the township school system, to its present status as the township school. Not until 1938 was it known by its present name. At that time with fitting ceremony it was dedi- cated as a memorial to Platt Rogers Spence1', the founder of the Spencerian System of Penmanship, whose first school was located on North Myers Road not far from Route 20. Mr. John Capretta was then superintendent of the school, and he, together with Miss Barbara Simmons, the music teacher, and a group of students, composed the words and arranged the music for the Spencer Alma Mater, which was performed publicly at the formal dedication of the school. Standing here with the world at mid-century, and ourselves on the threshold of adult responsibilities, we seniors look back with grateful hearts upon all which has gone before to bring us to this point of achievement as a class and as a school. With sincere appreciation we acknowledge our debt to the boards of education, parents, and the forward-looking membe1's of this community, whose vision and con- fidence and determination have made possible the continued growth and expanding usefulness of this school. ' We wish at this time to pay special tribute to th1'ee men, now retired from the Board, who have played an important part in the history of Spencer. They are: Mr. J. J. Bliss, who chose not to run for re-election, after more than 20 years of service to this school district. Mr. J. W. Simmons, who has served faithfully as clerk of the board for more than 25 years. Mr. Lyle Pruden, a member of the board since 1938 and one of Spencer's most loyal and energetic boosters, who resigned from the Board after his election as town- ship trustee last November. To these three, and to the present members of the Board, Mr. E. J. Hannenian, president, Mr. Howard Wolcott, vice president, Mr. O. D. Phelps, Mr. Stephen Weintz, beginning a four-year term of membership, Mr. G. W. Berry, appointed to complete Mr. Pruden's unexpired term, and Mrs. Martha Chapman, clerk, our warmest thanks and good wishes. May the future of Platt R. Spencer School be even better than the past!

There is one man to whom more than any other the parents and pupils of Platt R. Spencer School ovsie a debt of gratitude. Through his hard work, leadership, and understanding in the short three- year period that he has been here, our school has prospered greatly. In view of this fact, We the Class of 1950 wish to acknowledge our debt by dedicating to you, Mr. Ingham, our last school endeavor, this 1950 Spencerian.

Charlie, as most of us knew him, was killed July 17, 1949, at the North Myers Road Crossing. Martie,' died as the result of an accident at an Ashtabula crossing. Both boys were outstanding Spencer athletes and both had earned the respect and genuine admira- tion of all who knew them. Charlie was also president of his senior class and outstanding in dramatics and music. Among our dearest memories will be Marty's basketball hair- cut and shy grin, and the straight young figure of Charlie as James Dyke, the prisoner, in the 1948 County One-Act Play winner, The Valiant, walking resolutely toward death with Shakespeare's immortal words upon his lips, The Valiant never taste of death but once.

This year, as in the past, the Student Council sponsored noon movies during the winter months to provide entertain- ment for students at noon when the weather was too bad to go outside. An amusing though necessary emergency service was rendered by the Student Council late last fall when for several days distilled water had to be used while the school water system was purified. Members served faithfully as a patrol at this time to supervise the use of the fountains by the younger children. Officers for the first semester were: President, Jack Kerwin, vice president, Dick Hunt, secretary, Virginia Kin- digg and treasurer, Fred Martinchuk. The three members- at-large were Loretta Brazis, Fred Martinchuk, and William Friedel. The second semester officers were: President, Bill Cal- hoong vice president, Anna Mae Gawlikowskig secretary, Mary Lois Stern, and treasurer, Evelyn Luther, while the mem- bers-at-large were Jack Kerwin, Harvey Roscoe, and Victoria Gawlikowski.

Last year Fred Martinchuk served the county chapter as vice president, while this year Bob Skul was similarly honored.

Harry Stern, Carole Klein, John Clarkson. what When the new addition was ready for occupancy at the beginning of the second semester, the Hi-Lites Staff was for- tunate enough to be able to use the new storeroom as a pri- Scuott vate press room where members could work in peace on the school publication. Peace, did We say? Friday mornings of Hi-Lites day you'd call it anything but peaceful, what with the hectic scramble to meet the deadline, last minute proof reading, and pages wet from the press, we mean mimeograph! Although occasionally the deadline was stretched a few minutes because of unexpected problems, not once did the staff fail to get the Hi Lites out on time. 1' A' l r' 'Ir ' 'r n .-44,44 Circulation continued to increase this year, and make up was varied, while colored ink brightened occasional issues. For the first time, the Hi-Lites was printed on one side of the paper only, and the staff even dared to print a thirteen page issue on Friday the 13th. Under the direction of Mrs. Paine and Mr. Brainard the following staff handled the Hi-Lites in its twelfth year of publication: Editor-in- chief, Bob Skul, associate editor, Fred Martinchuk, Barbara Grabkow- skig business manager, Jack Kerwing production, Virginia Kindig, Eve- lyn Luther, Betty Jean Rudolph, Jim Woodworth, Harry Sterng sports, Adolph Tersigni, Harry Percival, David Brumagin, John Clarksong ex- change, Norma Phelps, reporters, Carole Klein, Archie Lehr, Margaret Hanneman, Loretta Brazis, Neal Crawford, Barbara Griffith, Helen Grabkowski, Marlene Glaab, Dick Berry, Mary Lou Kropf, Jack Lingle, Charlotte Tarantina, Jackie Blair, and Diana Kozub.

At the end of its second year of existence as a chartered organiza- tion, the Spencer Key Club can look back: with justifiable pride upon a record of real achievements. Officers elected last May for this school year were: Bob Skul, presidentg Ed Dubsky, vice presidentg Fred Martinchuk, secretaryg and Bob Kozub, treasurer. The club's advisers were Mr. Bert Peterson and Mr. Julius Horvath, Geneva Kiwanis members, and Mr. Ingham is their sponsor. Delegates to the National Convention of Key Clubs at Columbus in April were Ed Dubsky and Jack Kerwing Bill Calhoon and Dave Van Steen were alternates. Special honor came to the Spencer club through the election of Lenny Rose as Lieutenant Governor of this Key Club district. Standards for membership in this organization are very high, re- quiring qualities of leadership and citizenship similar to those demanded of the parent Kiwanis organization. Last fall the Key Club boys helped the Kiwanis with their annual White Elephant Sale. Local activities included noon dancing periods for the high school, public dances after the home basketball games, the printing and sale of basketball programs, and scrap drive. LIBRARY .

Eighteen girls, with Mr. Parmigian as adviser and Virginia Kindig as head librarian, have done a splendid job this year of handling the Spencer library. The School Board bought not only the Teachers' and Pupils' Read- ing Circle Books, but also 25 fiction, non-fiction, and reference volumes. Twice each year the Ashtabula Public Library Extension circulates new books in our school library and in grades one through six. In addition to the much expanded selection of books, Spencer students have for their enjoyment and use a variety of current maga- zines and periodicals as well as the most up-to-date encyclopedias and dictionaries. The task of caring for the library, especially under the present crowded conditions, is not an easy one and the entire library staff is to be commended for its success. Y-TEENS .

In the traditional candlelight service they initiated 23 new members, giving a total of 33 members. The Y-Teens with the Hi-Y this year packed baskets for needy families at Thanksgiving. As money projects the Y-Teens sold stationery and made plans for a dance to be held in April. With the help of the mixed chorus the Y-Teens presented the Christmas program for grades 7 through 12 under the di- rection of Mrs. Paine and Miss Shaulis. Barbara Grabkowski, Betty Jean Rudolph, and Virginia Kindig acted as master of ceremoniesg Evelyn Luther portrayed the Virgin Mary. The Y-Teens also presented the Easter Service at school. As a sponsoring organization the Women's Council as- sisted the Y-Teens in all their projects. At the recognition service, elections were held and Mrs. Charles Tarantina was elected chairman, Mrs. Frederick Blair, secretary-treasurer. -Y This year the Hi-Y initiated seven new members. Mr. Brainard served at adviser, while officers were: Bill Calhoon, presidentg Adolph Tersigni, vice president, Ed Dubsky, secre- tary, Jim Woodworth, treasurer. The club didn't schedule its usual noon volley-ball games, but members enjoyed swimming at the Ashtabula Y. M. C. A. The group also helped the Y-Teens pack Thanksgiving bas- kets. BAND...

Music is happiness of the heart, according to Miss Shaulis, and judging from the volume and quality of sound swelling forth from rooms 38 and 31 at various periods during the day and even after school, Spencer students are in com- plete agreement. The chorus groups have increased steadily in size through- out the year. The girls' chorus has remained around the 35 mark, while the boys' chorus has doubled, and the mixed chorus numbers about 45. Fine balance of harmony and good interpretation characterize the work of these groups. Achievements of the choral department this year have been a Christmas program and a spring concert, while the increase in number and variety of voices points to an even better future. In fact, plans already are being made for a high-school oper- etta next year. The instrumental department, though small in size, has also done a splendid job, and the progress made by beginners as well as veterans is commendable. Indeed, the twelve mem- bers can make a lot of music-good music! Their major public appearances of the year were concerts in March and May for the P. T. A. THESPIANS .

Mr. Ingham once again served as adviser of the group. The Thespians did not enter the one-act play contest this year because of a crowded schedule and the illness of one of the faculty.

CUB SCOUTS . . . Initial plans for a Cub Scout program at Spencer School, begun in October 1949, soon materialized into Pack 58, thanks to the efforts of: interested parents, the Spencer P. T. A., which agreed to be the spon- soring organizationg Mr. Harry Fleming, Cubmaster of Geneva Pack No. 543 Superintendent Clyde Ingham, Mr. Lyle Pruden, Chairman of the Arcole Scout District, Mr. A. J. Polkow, Neighborhood Commis- sionerg Mrs. Wayne Hopes, and Mrs. Frances Webb, who served as an initial organization committee. The Cub Scout Committee meets with the den mothers monthly to discuss the theme and make plans for the following month's work. Pack 58 is divided into five dens, each of which meets once a week separately, and once a month jointly, the last Thursday of each month, for a Pack meeting. Committee members are: Mr. Carl Burhanna, chairman, Mr. Wayne Hopes, secretary-treasurer, Mr. Ralph Dorman, achievement director, Mr. Daniel Tirabasso, activity director, Mr. James Gleason, publicity directory Mr. W. E. Reynolds, Cubmasterg and Mr. Richard Myers, assistant cubmaster. Den mothers and assistants are: fContinued on Page 831 BOY SCOUTS . . . Boy Scout Troop 58, which is sponsored by the Spencer P. T. A., has thirty registered scouts. Their present scoutmaster is Gordon Polkow and his assistants are Willard Starkey, Roger Polkow, and Bill Craw- ford, who recently returned from the army. Several boys spent a week at camp last summer and one boy, Dick Puckrin, plans to go to the National Jamboree, which will be held at Valley Forge, Pennsylvania, this July. The troop attended several rallies during the year, held regular swims at the Y. M. C. A., and had a parents' night at which the boys were awarded the badges they had earned. Perhaps the most colorful event of the year was a Hallowe'en party with games and refreshments. Also, a Tenderfoot Investure Ceremony was held in January in which the older members of the troop painted up as Indians and wore Indian costumes. At this ceremony fourteen new boys were taken into the troop and given their Tenderfoot badges after repeating the scout oath. GIRL SCOUTS . . . Girl Scouts of Troop 8, with Mrs. Lewis and Miss Cross as advisers, elected the following as their officers for the 1949-50 school year: President, Donna Prentice, vice president, Virginia Price, secre- tary, Bette Jeanne Weintzg and treasurer, Rose Pretz. Activities of the year included a hike, a swimming party, and the annual April birthday party. The girls are anticipating a camping excursion in late summer. 4-H CLUB . . . Row 1 Jessie Sloan.

Variety is the spice of life might well have been the motto of 'the Spencer 4-H clubs this past year. For example young Art William's Junior Farmers -including three girls--went in for sweet corn, gardens, beef raising, dairy products, market pigs, and poultry. Mem- bers took the results of their projects to the fair and came home with quite a crop of first and second-prize ribbons. The three brave girls were Bette Jeanne Weintz, Mary Williams, and Marilyn Polkow. The last two named attended 4-H camp in the summer. The Baker's Dozen was under the leadership of Mrs. Fritz with Mrs. Lingle as assistant adviser. Officers were: Eva Fritz, president, Jackie Blair, vice president, Charlotte Tarantina, secretary, Shirley Beck, treasurer, and Nancy Brown, news-reporter. The girls made at- tractive pot holders and towels for the new home economics room and baked rolls for the county fair. Some of the members also took up knitting in Ashtabula. The entire group enjoyed the spaghetti supper provided by Mrs. Fritz and Mrs. Lingle, as well as the skating party which followed. Mrs. Stowe, assisted by Mrs. Baker, had charge of the North Center Ramblers, and the officers of the group were: Jerry Rea, president, Janet Silvestro, vice president, Rose Pretz, secretary, Carol Baker, treasurer. Among the sewing projects selected by the ten mem- bers were dresses, sports clothes, and tailored suits. The girls enjoyed an outing at Thompson Ledges, a picnic at Township Park, and several swimming parties, besides holding a bake sale to raise funds. The Stitch-Snip-and-Rip was directed by Mrs. Joseph Lucas and the officers were: Marlene Glaab, president, Joanne Lucas, vice presi- dent, Eva Fritz, treasurer, and Mary Phillips, secretary. Members chose as their club project to outfit a complete wardrobe for a poor girl. Eva Fritz's dress won third place at the county fair, and the group was represented at camp by Doris Cox and Gloria Lucas. Mrs. Rudolph's Busy Bee Club elected the following as officers: Kay Friedel, president, Jackie Blair, vice president, Betty Rudolph, secretary, Charlotte Tarantina, treasurer, and Virginia Merrill, news- reporter. Mabel Rudolph and Marianne Harvey assisted Mrs. Rudolph. For a community project the girls made and donated a complete baby layette to the Geneva Memorial Hospital. All members exhibited their sewing projects at the county fair, and ten girls were chosen to model their garments. Virginia Merrill also gave a county health dem- onstration, How to Pasteurize Milk at Home. Emphasizing the fourth H, Health, the club not only won the county health certificate for the second time, but also was awarded 20 dollars by the state for having onelof the best health programs in the entire state. Marilyn Polkow won a trip to the state fair for having the- best health record in the county, and Betty Jean Rudolph was chosen delegate to the 4-H Club Congress at Columbus by the County 4-H Council. HOT LUNCH PROJECT . . . The hot lunch project has again done a splendid job of preparing an average of 320 meals a day for the students of Spencer School. This accomplishment seems all the more remarkable when we realize that the serving is done within a single hour. The women who are credited for this job are Mrs. Lingle, Mrs. Wolcott, Mrs. Pollitt, and Mrs. Phelps. The girls who assisted them are: Victoria, Anna Mae, and Louise Gaw- likowski, Barbara and Ada Griffith, Mary Phillips, Mabel Applegate, Barbara Stowe, Dorothy Berry, Shirley Beck, and Doris Clutter. Mrs. Wolcott, who for the second year served as hot lunch clerk, was also in charge of the ice cream sales. New equipment purchased this year included yellow plastic dishes and a meat slicer, while paper milk containers replaced the glass bottles. When the home economics classes were transferred to their new room in January, it became possible to bring the ice cream cabinet from the hall into the hot lunch room. However, even with this improved arrangement, the present room is still inadequate in size, and the hot lunch cooks were hoping that the proposed new bond issue would make it possible for them to have a larger cafeteria. SPENCER CLUB . . . The Spencer Club was organized February 7, 1950, with the ex- press purpose of putting Spencer School on the map as the Heart of Geneva Township. Officers of the club are: George Penzenick, president, Paul R. Kerwin, vice president, Russell T. Stern, secretary, Ralph Friedel, re- cording secretary, James Puckrin, treasurer, Ray Lange, Russell Run- yan, Carl Burhanna, trustees, committee chairmen-membership, Andy Cashen, athletic, Michael Marko, transportation, Ray Lange, band, Fred Bailey, publicity, Carl Burhanna. THE JUNIOR RED CROSS . . . The Junior Red Cross Membership Drive held last fall netted a total of 32135. Out of this was paid the five dollar membership nec- essary to enroll the entire school. Although no regular officers were elected this year, Wesley Gaul and Ervin Hawes represented the group at the Ashtabula Red Cross Chapter meetings. This organization again packed ten overseas boxes at Christmas time, as well as ten similar boxes for the County Home at Kingsville. Favors were made for the County Home and for the Geneva Memorial Hospital at holiday seasons. CHEERLEADERS . . . ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION .

Officers of the Athletic Association, elected early in the year by grades seven through twelve were: president, Archie Lehrg vice presi- dent, Jim Woodworthg secretary-treasurer, Carole Klein. Mr. Marko again served. as adviser. This year the association resumed the practice of electing a carnival King and Queen to reign over the festivities. Victors of this rousing contest were Bill Calhoon and Margaret Hanneman. Although from the standpoint of attendance, there have been more successful carnivals, in entertainment value, the 1949-50 addition of the A. A.'s annual effort to raise funds was outstanding. Cheerleaders elected by the student body were: Varsity, Mary Lois Stern and Donna Prentice, Reserve, Norma Phelps, Carole Klein, and Barbara Grabkowski, and Junior High, Wanda Wolcott, Claudeen Slater, and Carol Phelps. For the second consecutive year all home games were played in Muny Hall, and proceeds from these games as well as from the carnival, were used to purchase basketball equipment and uniforms, and school- yard and baseball equipment. Post-season fun was provided by the annual Cage Carnival. n 41 VARHTY...

The Wildcats started off the 49-50 season like a house-afire, win- ning the first 3 out of 4 games: dropping the Alumni in their opener, and Andover and Kingsville in the third and fourth contests. Only Rowe made things unpleasant by dumping our Green and Gold pride 51-28 in the second game of the season at Muny. After that, Spencer lost five games consecutively to Jefferson, Austinburg, Geneva, Edge- wood, and Rowe, before coming from behind to trim Andover for the fourth win. The only bright spot in all these losses was the game fight our hoopsters put up against the highly-rated Geneva Eagles on Jan- uary 7. Geneva won the game 55-42, but this score doesn't come close to the real story of the battle. Following the Andover win Spencer again hit the skids, this time for three games, to Kingsville, to Jefferson, and Austinburg. An inter- esting note on the Jefferson game was that the 46-37 score was identical to the score of their first encounter when Jefferson also won. Then in an exhibition game with Perry, Spencer got hot, and for one of the few times all season really looked like a basketball team. February 10 found Edgewood on the Muny floor in quest of a much-needed victory to clinch a tie for the Big Seven championship. Well, they got it, but not without a fight. So, regular play at Spencer came to an end: five victories and ten losses. Tournament time rolled around and Spencer drew Andover as its first opponent. Although the Cats had dropped this team twice in pre- vious encounters, Andover turned the tables on the local lads and gave Spencer its first tournament loss, 34-30. Now in the loser's bracket, the Cats turned in an unimpressive 39-30 victory over Colebrook, but two nights later were eliminated from further tournament play by a heartbreaking defeat at the hands of their traditional Austinburg rivals. Although Spencer didn't lack the material this year, it just seemed that Coach Marko c0uldn't find a winning combination. Most of the games found the Wildcats ahead, or at least holding their own, through- out the first three quarters. But the spirit seemed to weaken in the final frame, and so did Spencer. In addition to the Varsity players pictured on the preceding page, Lenny Rose and Buddy Wolcott also saw action either in regular or tournament play. RESERVE . . . Although they won but four games this season, the Reserves looked impressive in their losses as well as their victories. Their worst defeat, and the hardest of all to take, was a 34-19 loss at the hands of Edge- wood in the final game of the season. On the credit side of the ledger, the Wildcat understudies racked up beautiful one-sided victories, twice over Austinburg, 35-7 and 30-11, and once over Andover 33-8. The boys played inspired ball all season and if they can continue next year in the role of varsity members with the same spirit they dis- played this year, Spencer will be sure of a good season.

The '49 baseball opener found Spencer on the Pierpont diamond September 16, eking out a close 7-5 victory. Kozub and Cowger be- tween them held Pierpont to six hits while Woodworth, Dubsky, and Kerwin each contributed two hits for the Cats. September 20, Spencer played host to Rock Creek, trouncing the visitors 14-3, thanks to a beautiful pitching performance by Rad Cowger, who fanned 11 and limited Rock Creek to four safeties. A bitterly contested game at Kingsville September 23, brought the Wildcats their third straight victory. The score, 8-6. Now tied for first place in the National League with three wins and no losses, Spencer took on Austinburg on the home grounds, September 27, for what proved to be their worst game all season. However, the Green and Gold finally edged by the Pioneers, 12-11. On September 30, with the championship of the National League to be decided, Rowe came to town. Both the Vikings and the Wildcats laid their 4-0 record on the block, but after a hectic battle the Rowe nine came out on top, 12-8. It was Spencer's first loss and the last game of regular season play. In tournament play, Spencer and Andover squared off against each other under the lights at Morrison Field in Ashtabula on October 3. The game was played in the rain and mud, and after a slam-bang brawl Andover eliminated Spencer from the tourney 11-7. Members of the squad were: Woodworth, Carlin, Tersigni, Dub- sky, Kerwin, Hunt, Dick Berry, Skul, Rose, Clarkson, Lehr, Kozub, Rad Cowger, Bob Berry, and Turner. Next year's prospects look fairly bright for the Wildcats, with two returning hurlers and several starters from last fall, plus many new- comers from the freshman and sophomore classes, and all of these with some baseball experience. Still, only time can tell the tale. TRACK... Last year's track team was probably one of the greatest that Spen- cer has ever produced. With five letter-men returning from the previous season to form the nucleus, Coach Marko shaped up the entire group into a hard-to-beat combination. The letter-bearers were Frank Caj- hen, Les Klein, Bill Klaue, Ed Dubsky, and Bob Skul, while Gerald Todd, Dale Hemphill, Russ Mohney, Charles Grabkowski, John Clark- son, Fred Inman, and Dick Hunt rounded out the rest of the '49 team. Our thin-clads started the season off in fine style on April 5, 1949, by trouncing Perry 5615-3615 in a 2-way meet at Perry. Ironically enough, the following week Spencer suffered its only defeat at the hands of this same team in a triangular affair at Geneva, although the Wildcats did get some consolation from edging out Geneva for second place. Spencer romped over Austinburg and Kingsville in two more fContinued on Page 875 JUNIOR HIGH BASKETBALL . . Row 1-Mr. Ingham, Bernard Schupsky, Ed Hillier, Russell Runyan, Norman Morgan, Bobby Burton. Row 2-Fred Bailey, Bob Billman, David Gleason, Jim Braunbeck, Howard Starkey, Donald Van Steen, Tony Tersigni, Carlos Cowger. Displaying potentialities of future Spencer basketball stars, the seventh and eighth grade cagers under the direction of Mr. Ingham turned in a creditable record this year of eight wins and eight losses. Playing for the third year in the Grand River League, the Wild- kittens compiled a four-four league record, losing twice to both Austin- burg and New Lyme. The height-advantage of these two clubs was doubtless the deciding factor. Schupsky and Burton were the mainstays of the team all season, while Runyan, Van Steen, Billman, Tersigni, Morgan, Cowger, and Braunbeck contributed their share. True sportsmanship was displayed by all. Mr. Ingham commented later that he really got a great deal of pleasure from Working with the team. He appreciated especially the fact that so many boys turned out for the team and felt that they showed fine co-operation. Spencer Opponents Spencer Opponents Dec. 1 20 N.

Over 200 eager fans witnessed the action, suspense, and comedy presented to them Friday evening, March 31, in the Spencer auditorium by the senior class in their interpretation of the 3-act mystery-comedy, Lucifer's Lodge, by Jay Tobias. This well-cast play, which was authentic in sound-effects, as well as sight-effects, gave the audience thrills, chills, and laughs. The plot centers around novelist Ogden Crandall fRichard Berryj, who needs peace and quiet to write a mystery story, his nephew Ross Crandall CRobert Skulj, who always seems to have a remark, Ross's friend Chesterfield CEd Dubskyj, who lithps g Felix, Mr. Crandall's colored chauffeur fArchie Lehrl, who definitely does not like were-wolves and the like, Dr. Lucifer CWilliam Calhoonj, who wants revenge, Emil, the old German servant fRichard Huntj, who likes the taste of human bloodg his tough son Karl CHarry Sternj, who don't take nothin g Squiggs fF'red Martinchukj, who don't want to be decapitootedng Kuku, the savage head-hunter, CLarry Springjg and last but not least, the wolf-man Uames Woodworthj. Crandall, his nephew Ross, and Chesterfield come to Luciferis Lodge in the Black Hills for solitudeg Ogden to write, and the boys to hunt. They find themselves taken in by Dr. Lucifer, who offers them two alternatives-one, to subject themselves to his animal experiments, or two, to be turned over to Kuku, who would enjoy decapitating them and preserving the specimens. When they try to bribe Karl, they are caught by Dr. Lucifer who orders Karl's head cut off. The visitors do not believe that Lucifer has really had Karl decapitated, so he proves it. The method by which the cast did this was so realistic that the audience fairly raised the roof. To top this off, the wolf man gets loose, and the boys think Ogden is dead. When Ogden comes to, he finds that he has been tricked, and that all these characters are just Ross's college friends, trying to stir up a plot for the elder Crandall. fContinued on Page 835 GRADE 3 Row 1 Morlestino Romeo, Carolyn Petro, C l a u ll e Sherlock, Kenneth St. John.

These included selling Christmas cards, sponsoring all special assemblies, and handling refreshments at home basketball games. A class play in the spring concluded the money-making pro- jects. New members of the class included Lee Clutter, Beverly Lyon, and Theresa Gawlikowski. Later on in the year Theresa withdrew. SENIOR MEMORIES . . . l.

Moody, teasing, mellow-voiced Eddie! what memories crowd his Spencer past? Hours of effort on the basketball floor: baseball, track, band. chorus, voice tran- scriptions in speech class, moods of indigo, mischievous moods: a line for thc girls, a lisp that scored in Lucifer's Lodge. And now that it's over, one thing remiins- -the question, What of the future? ROBERT SKUL llB0'b9! What's that mean? Baby picture and senior portraitehow many years lie between? Yet the same tilt of the head is there, the same eafzer and questioning air, the same alcrt gaze. Memories? P-Sam, Boys' State, Key Club convention, Echoes from Muny, Thursday nights on the Hi-Lites, last-minute stories, Spencermn candids, plaid hunting shirts and rifles. Scholarships, clubs, editorial responsibilities, sports: all get the same concentration of effort, the same deter- mination to see the job done and done right. ' RICHARD HOUSE HUNT HDick!! What are you looking at me for? Noisy cut-up of the class of '50, master of dialect, comedy, and cartoon, chief pro- jectionist of noon movies, and grease monkey at Weinstock's, where many of his after school hours are spent. Who could it be but Dick Hunt! VIRGINIA RUTH KINDIG I Ginger If it makes me happy to be happy, let me be happy. Indiana, George, and wrestling Knot with Georgej via television are the stars in Virginia's sky. Add a few other things like abounding good humor, an immense capacity for work fthe work-horse of the senior class-no lessl, a fondness for hill- billy music, and you have her-the future Mrs. George Salway. SENIGRS . . . LARRY LARUE SPRING nLarryn What's the answer to the fifth one? Broken nose, machete, horrible gurglingr Koo-Koo's -why, of course, it's Larry Spring! It's Larry, too, who stands at the press till play programs and school songs are all printed. Quite a handy person to have around, in fact! EVELYN ELEANOR LUTHER Evelyn Bill .... In the two years she has been with us, golden-haired Evelyn has made a real place for herself in the Spencer Family. We'll remember her as Daisy Mae, as financier for noon movies, and play tickets, and as general manager of Y-Teen Pot-lucks. We'll remember, too, her sunny blue eyes and sweet smile. WILLIAM EUGENE CALHOON Bill Arr you mad, Evelyn? Master of innuendo and subtle satire, suave of manner and able with pen, Bill is one whose presence is felt wherever he is. He may also be labeled hot rod of the senior class, nor can we forget the sinister threat and venomous fury of his performance as Dr. Lucifer. DAVID HARRY VAN STEEN ccDave!! Gd mc' out of study hall, will you, Bill? Little but mighty and blessed with an impish smile, Dave enjoys getting into mis- chief and out of class. We'll remember too the hours he's spent setting type and printing programs, his quiet efficiency as athletic manager, and his welcome voice prompting from under the desk in Luci- fer's Lodge. I A SENIORS . . . ROYCE RUSSELL EVANS xaROyceyy Heh, heh, he'h! Mild in appearance though he may be, get Royce aroused and he's anything but the quiet member of the class that most people think him. A mischievous gleam often lights his blue eyes, and when it does--watch out! For Royce in a teasing mood is something to cope with. BARBARA ANN LEWIS uBarbyn Oh, brother ! Shy, quiet Barby with the unassuming way may be counted on to do her best at whatever she undertakes, witness her way with Delisha in Good Gracious, Grand- ma. What a time-bomb of coyness she exploded to the surprise and delight of the audience. And need we mention her fond- ness for Mr. Brainard's classes? JERRY JAMES SPRING uJ'eI,I,yH Do you want me to fix your nose like La.1'1'y's ? Jerry of the handsome profile and the stubborn, teasing ways seems to have a strange and disastrous fixation upon fin- gers and noses, having fixed first his own ffinger, that ish though he doesn't seem to miss the ends he left behind him: then his bi-other's nose iNote the hand- some mask adorning Larry in many of these annual picturesl. By the way, Jerry toiled hard and long on the dummy for this yearbook. HARRY TWING STERN lCTwing7! What are you-a hot rod? Sharp clothes, letters from Cleveland or Ashtabula fsame girll, old desks, opera, wall paper, Fords, P. O. D. argumentsf these are some of the preferences of the '1'wing with the Toni, Tough guy though he was in Lucifer's Lodge, toughness is only a mask for genuine in- terest and helpfulness when need arises.

Mix quiet voice, curly hair, teasing' eyes, cowboy shirt and boots, a fondness for mink, not to mention girls, and you have Dick Berry, novelist Ogden Crandall, to be exact. He's a misrhty handy man to have around, too, when it comes to setting a stasze or arranging special lighting ef- fects. In fact, he's a handy man, period. SYDNEY ARCI-IIE LEHR aaAI,chyr I don't get it. ' Lil Abner, corset-donning.: Grandma, carnival M. C., and all libber par excel- lence, that's Archie of the long tongue and the droll, derisive wit--life of those famous senior parties. And who can for- get his capers and his Oh, Lawdy's as Felix in Lucifer's Lodixen? Spookish was the word for Archie on his knees! JAMES ARTHUR WOODWORTH HJiml, Whore aw' uw' going? Ambitious in everything' but school, fond of farming' and girls, Wolf-man Wood- worth is a mighty useful person to have around when a stage-set is in the making or a car is needed for an errand or a trip to the Free Press. That wooden Indian expression Jimmy usually wears hides a lot of dogged determination, too, as his opponents in sports have many times dis- covered. CLASS HISTORY . . Even though ours is the thirteenth senior class to emerge from Spencer School, we feel that we are indeed fortunate to have enjoyed the tremendous improvements in our school. When our class entered the first grade, there were twenty-six students. From this number, there are ten remaining. David Richard Berry, born September 9, 1931, in Geneva, Ohio, has been enrolled at Spencer for all twelve years. After graduation, Dick plans to go into the mink business with his father. William Eugene Calhoon, born August 8, 1932, in Willoughby, Ohio, started his first grade in the Mentor Elementary School, stayed there for two weeks, then moved to Geneva to finish his first year. He returned to Mentor Avenue School for the third grade, but he came to Spencer the next year and has been with us ever since. Bill is one of the two boys from our class who are National Guardsmen. Anthony Edwin Dubsky, president of the senior class, was born December 9, 1931, in Cleveland, Ohio. Eddie, as he is usually called, spent the first grade and part of the second at Union Grade School in Cleveland, Ohio, then moved to Geneva to finish his second year and continue his schooling. Eddie has participated in all sports at Spencer. Royce Evans, the boy who wouldn't bring his baby picture, was born September 15, 1932, in Geneva, Ohio. He, too is one of the origi- nals of our class. Royce as yet does not have any plans for after-grad- uation. Vice president and also comic of our class is Richard House Hunt, born in Geneva, November 6 ,1932. He has been with us all twelve years. After graduation, Dick plans to continue working for Wein- stock's until he has earned his second million. Our senior class secretary, Virginia Ruth Kindig, opened her blue eyes on September 17, 1932, in Geneva, Ohio. She has been with our class all twelve years, also, and we might add that she was Spencer's mascot when she was in the first and second grades. After-graduation plans include marriage and a Home in Indiana. In the past two years, Virginia has been very active in extra-curricular activities. Sydney Archie Lehr made his initial appearance in the world Jan- uary 3, 1931, in Saybrook, Ohio. He started school in Geneva, then came to Spencer, only to return to Geneva for grades two through ten. However, he rejoined us for his junior and senior years. Barbara Ann Lewis, better known as Barb, was born in Madison, Ohio, June 16, 1931. Barbara started her school career in North Madi- son, where she stayed until the fourth grade. Then she came to Spencer to complete her school career. After graduation, Barb plans to find a job. Evelyn Eleanor Luther uttered her first cry on July 23, 1931, in Geneva, Ohio. Although she spent her first ten years in Geneva School, Evelyn has participated in many Spencer activities since she joined us in our junior year. After graduation, she plans to secure a secretarial job. Evelyn was elected Daisy Mae of the Sadie Hawkins Carnival in 1948 and was a candidate for Carnival Queen in 1949. iContinued on Page 791 CLASS PROPHECY . Hickman Field Hawaii May 24, 1960 Dear Mrs. Paine, While on a tour of the world in my hydro-atomic rocket ship I looked up all my old schoolmates and thought you would like to hear about them. I found Jerry Spring in Chicago, where he is the owner of the largest trucking company in the United States. He calls it, You Call Em, We Haul Em. My next stop was St. Louis where I found the skinless Wiener, Archie-I mean I found Archie Lehr, the head of the greatest Wiener factory in the world. He plans to retire when he makes his second million. From St. Louis I took a jaunt to Alaska, Where I found Royce Evans still digging for gold. He has been at it ever since he got out of school and hasn't had any luck yet. I then went to Arabia, and there I found Bob Skul working secretly on the new carbon-dioxide-oxygenatomic bomb. He expects to have it completed before the Russians. We hope. By the way, I saw Fred Martinchuk in Russia. He told me he is a United States ambassador to the Iron Curtain country and likes his job very much. After that I went to Ethiopia to meet the gang boss of the Ethio- pian oil drillers, the one-and-only Dave Van Steen. He hopes to get back home soon. I stopped in Monoeville, Indiana, and guess whom I found-Yes, it was Virginia Salway-not Kindig any more. She has quite a family now. I think it's nine or teng I'm not sure which. Next on my list was the annual mink show in Lorain, Ohio. There I ran into Dick Berry and Ed Dubsky. Dick said he and Ed have gone into partnership in the mink business, now own a big ranch, and enjoy their business very much. From Lorain I went to Detroit to find Harry Stern, who is now in the automobile manufacturing business. He is making two models, the Stern Custom Special and the Stern Twing Standard. Harry hopes to build another plant in Cleveland. After leaving Detroit, I took a short hop to Geneva, where I picked up my wife who was visiting her family. In case you don't know who my wife is , she's Evelyn used-to-be, Luther. By this time we needed some fuel for our hydro-tatomic rocket ship, so we stopped at a Sunoco Rocket Fuel Station and guess who was there! Yes, it was Dick Hunt, who says he bought out the Sunoco Company and is doing very well. While he was putting fuel in the rocket I turned on my built-in television set, tuned in the fights, and there was none other than Larry Spring. He won the fight, and it appears that he is Well on his way to the top. ' fContinued on Page 771 as-. warn .ln H il S R , J ff in as asian .YN fav I J af . . . 1 v- .. r Q' If ,. f'::.Jf ...

He started his education in Geneva, Ohio, where he completed his eighth grade, coming to Spencer in the freshman year and finishing here with our class. After Davy is graduated, he plans to travel. Harry Twing Stern was born June 10, 1931, at Beaver Falls, Pennsylvania. He completed the first grade in Valley School, moved to Prospect for his second grade, to McKinley for his third, and to Forest Street School through the sixth grade. For the seventh grade he came to Spencer and has remained here throughout the rest of his school career. Harry is the second member of our class who belongs to the National Guard. Larry Spring, born October 7, 1931, in Geneva, Ohio, has been another of our loyal members, having been with us for all of his school career. Larry's twin, Jerry, was of course born October 7, 1931, also, and in Gen- eva, Ohio. Also, of course, he has been with us for his entire schooling. After he is graduated he plans to do some truck driving with his brother. James Arthur Woodworth was born at Geneva, Ohio, December 4, 1931. Jimmy, too, is one of the original 26.

May 7 brought the Big Seven track meet at Edgewood, and Spencer's first big test, which the Cats passed with flying colors, col- lecting SOMZ points to Rowe's 509 Edgewood's 36V23 Austinburg's 28, and Jefferson's 10. Jerry Todd broke the high school high-jump record with a 5' SW leap. The following Saturday found the Wildcats in the keenest competition that they had encountered all season-the county track meet at Wenner Field in Ashtabula. With more than 12 schools entered, Spencer really had its work cut out, but as champions do, so did Spencer, and the Cats became the Ashtabula County Track Champions. Todd gained two more school records in discus and shot- put, while Cajhen was beaten in the 440 for the first time that season. May 21, the entire track team journeyed to Orange to compete in the District Meet. Dubsky, district defending champion in the pole- vault came through in his specialty, while Todd tied for second in the high jump, Cajhen took fourth in the 440 yd. dash, Skul placed fifth in the broad jump, and the half-mile relay team of Skul, Cajhen, Hemphill, and Klein took fifth in that event. Dubsky and Todd were the only two cinder men to qualify for the State Meet in Columbus May 28. How- ever, Spencer's two color-bearers failed to finish in the show there, both boys placing sixth in their respective events, the pole vault and the high-jump. Still it is worth noting that Dubsky broke his own record with an 11' 2 leap. Other records broken during the season were the 440 yd. dash by Cajhen as he sprinted the quarter in 52:8 seconds, and the 220 yd. low hurdles captured by Skul in 26:7 seconds' time.
