In Kenton, Ohio, on April 8, 1926, a tiny girl, Kathryn Scharf. found her way to this earth of ours. Until she was six years old she kept out of mischief quite well, but then her troubles began. First of these was a scalded foot when she fell from a chair, her foot landing in a pail of hot water standing nearby. As a tot not quite five, she found a pair of scissors and gave her little sister a real hair-cut. Being rescued from drowning, having her lip badly cut with a fish-hook, being left behind after a picnic at Meadowbrook, were only a few episodes of Kathryn's early life. Kathryn was a member of the Mission Society and of the Sodality all through high school, and of the Bonhi Club during her senior year. She carried a part in the playlet Camp Controversy when she was a junior, and in All Gummed Up, the senior class play. Early Saturday morning, January 9, l926, Alice Thom was born in Fellows, a small town in sunny California. Soon after, the family moved back to Fostoria. Always ready for fun, Alice one day climbed, via a tree to the roof of a shelter house in a park. Then, following the example of the boys with whom she was playing, she jumped to the ground .... a sprained ankle .... a badly cut lip .... infection .... a very sick child. A trip to California followed her freshman year. As freshman, Alice was class Secretary: as junior, cheerleader, member of the Wendelette staff, and of the Mission Society. She belonged to the Glee Club and to the Sodality all four years, and to the Bonhi Club during years one, three, and four. She was also a member of the sophomore debating team and took part in Cell work. She was givenlhonorable mention for scholastic excellence at the ,close of her sophomore year. Recently, Alice Was awarded a scholarship for Notre Dame College. On the bright day of May 8, 1926, at the Fostoria City Hospital, baby Jane Ziegman made her, first appearance. Her childhood, she says, was rather uneventful. As a freshman, lane was thrilled to make a three day visit to Cincinnati with several of her classmates. While there they attended a convention for Camp Fire Girls. At the present time, Iane is the treasurer of her group. As a sophomore, she lead in the Wendelette subscription drive. As a senior, she carried one of the leading roles in A1l Gummed Up, taking the part of Mrs. Hemming, the head of the family. She also played in a number of skits for student assemblies. While in high school, Iane was an active member of the Sodality and of the Mission Society. She likes to read, but in the summer spends much of her leisure time swimming and playing tennis.
