Only one who has entered these doors knows what the building is really like. From the outside W. H. S. looks like a cold brick structureg but once you have entered the building and have become a part of it, you realize that it is very warm and alive. Within this building you receive an education which prepares you either for col- lege or for a vocation. The members of each graduating class that exits through the doors of W, Il. S. are educated so that they will be more capable of handling the prob- lems and challenges that they will have to face as citizens.

This year the doors of W. H. S. have been used as the theme of the yearbook. The doors to the auditorium, the gates at the football stadium, the doors to big study hall, the door to Mr. Work's office, classroom doors-these, to name a few, signify memories of many events to the students of W. H. S. ALLEN 81 HARTZELL, INC. DEDICATION Mr. Gordon Hildebrand We, the Senior Class of 1953, proudly dedicate our 1953 Whisperer to Mr. Gordon Hildebrand. Since coming to W. H. S. in September of 1946, Mr. Hildebrand has spent many hours patiently teaching each successive junior class the funda- mentals of grammar and the background of American literature. In addition to his duties as a teacher he also serves as advisor of the junior class. Each junior cabinet is deeply grateful for Mr. Hildebrand's wise and quiet guidance in planning the annual junior-senior banquet. Mr. Hildebrand will always be remembered as the teacher who re- quired several themes a year and the memorization of twenty lines of Thanatopsis. Some will remember him as the teacher of a ninth period- detention hall. We sincerely offer him our best wishes with appreciation of all the time and service he has given to our school.

These are the men who were elected by the people of Wadsworth to supervise the operation of the Wadsworth school system. Their duties include employing teachers, raising money, supervising the expenditures of tax money, planning school curriculum and determining school policies. CDFFICE STAFF . . Beulah Good, Treva Booth, Bill Heyl. Occasionally the students of W. H. S. see Mr. Heyl, who serves as clerk to the Board of Education. His job is an important one, because he records all the decisions reached by the Board, and is the purchasing agent for school supplies. Miss Good, affectionately known to everyone as Beulah, is Mr. Work's faithful sec- retary. Every student attending W. H. S. meets Beulah at one time or another. If you need a tardy slip, 'an admit to class, or an aspirin for a headache, you are sent to Beulah. In a day she can be seen doing everything from mending skirts to checking attendance: but anything done by Beulahis always done with a sincere, honest smile, and with the satisfaction of having. done something to help someone else. Mrs. Booth acts as a part-time secretary for Mr. Burkholder. Her job is, at times, taken over by the girls in office practice class. 7 ' 'Eg 'CL BATES 'AGENCY English TEACHERS OF ART, LANGUAGE, AND HISTORY Q18 DORIS BAUGHMAN Art University of Akron, B. S.

Northwestern University TEACHERS It is a well-known fact that the duty of a teacher is to teach students the funda- mentals of reading, writing, and mathematics. But the faculty of W. H. S. don't stop their work with the 3:30 dismissal bell. They use their free hours to act as advisors for all the clubs and classes. They have unending patience and tolerance. There is no doubt about it-the teachers at Wadsworth High School do an excellent job! THE BENNETT LUMBER CO. CUSTODIANS William Bassett, James Rivers, Harold Fulton, Charles Banks. COOKS Mrs. Cordrey, Mrs. Youtz, Mrs. Garcia, Mrs. Mohler, Mrs. Kissling, Mrs. West. LUNCH LINE Janet Dulworth, Pat Myers, Linda Cor- drey, Tom Flath, Theresa French, Mari- lyn Serfass, Patty Eggeman. No student who has ever stayed for lunch can ever forget the wonderful meals pre- pared by Mrs. Kissling and her cooking staff. She always has an extra lunch, no matter who forgets to buy his lunch ticket. The custodians are also essential to W. H. S. They are known by all the students as Bill, Charlie, Jim, and Pinky. No matter how often the waste basket is missed, the cus- todians always keep the floors and corners clear. Something that we'll always remember is thc clever speech Charlie gave at the Republican rally during the mock election. CHARLES W.

Leaving W. H. S., we, the Class of 1953, wish to extend to the future graduates the happiness and joy that we, as a class, had behind the doors of W. H. S. We will always remember the things we experienced while attending W. H. S.: the little things like the thrill we received in the seventh grade when we changed classes for the first time, and the superiority we felt as eighth graders-we were in the high- est grade in junior high. Then came the ninth grade. We moved down off the shelf and were permitted to sit in the lower auditorium. Remember all the new friends we made when the students from Centralized joined us? In our junior year the big event was the junior-senior banquet. We really slaved to make that a success. And in our senior year everything was special and precious because we realized that this was to be our last year in Wadsworth High School. As we leave, we take all these precious memories with us, knowing that high school is over, but that its memories will linger forever.

The members of the annual staff are the behind-the-scenes workers in producing the year- book. Most of their work goes on behind the closed door of 207 under the guidance of Mr. Cooper. Their goal is to give the students of W. H. S. a good annual that is free from any er- rors. Besides the pride in a job well done, the staff benefits in learning about the process of putting out a book, and they soon learn to appreciate the work that goes into any printed article.

One of the fun-loving, hard-working groups of our school is the stage crew. These boys work behind the scenes of every play, assembly, and concert. It is up to the stage crew to see that the lighting is correct, that the stage curtains open and close at the right time, that the microphones are adjusted, and that the stage is set. When everyone else has left the auditorium, the stage crew can be found taking down sets. When all their work is completed, the crew usually goes to the home of Mr. and Mrs. Sears for cokes and sloppy joes. Mr. Sears is the faithful and patient advisor of the stage crew. He selects and in- structs the crew and works with them. MAKE-UP CREW ROW 1: Schreiber, Motzko, Swagler, Marmaroff.

Make-up helps to set the atmosphere of the theater world on the stage. The crew works with rouge, base, mascara, putty, and crepe hair, trying to create the character. Back of the curtain, with the stage crew and the cast of the play, you will find the make-up crew do- ing touch-up jobs throughout the play. With Miss King's professional guidance and as- sistance, the make-up crew does a wonderful job. COMPLIMENTS OF THE NEWS-BANNER 58 STUDENT COUNCIL AND N. F.

Each had the honor of attending the Rotary meetings for the month to which he was assigned. Every Tuesday Mr. Sears accompanied him to the meeting which was held at the Methodist Church. While attending these meetings, the boys made many new friends, enjoyed wonder- ful meals, and heard excellent speakers. It is indeed an honor to be an Honorary Rotar- ian.

PLANK ELEVATOR DELEGATES Ramon Smith Berniece Heath Sidney Kreider Janice Christian Bill Elsass Mr. Schaffer Donna Dye Bill Elsass BUCKEYE STATE Every individual who has ever attended Girls' State has an idea of how an ideal government should be run. The girls run for offices, have gigantic campaigns with big rallys and political speeches. The election is climaxed at the middle of the week by the inaugural banquet where the governor is installed. After the officers are elected, the girls carry out their individual duties. The entire grounds is considered as one state and is run as such. Each day the girls hear speakers who give them definite ideas as to what good government really is. One outstanding feature of Girls' State is the spirit of friendliness which prevails everywhere. Many lasting friendships are gained through living and working together. Boys' State is conducted essentially in the same manner as Girls' State. Because of unfortunate circumstances Boys' State could not be held in 1952. To compensate the boys for missing the experience, a gift of luggage was presented to each of them. WORLD AFFAIRS INSTITUTE A junior boy and girl are chosen by the Rotary Club and sent each year to repre- sent Wadsworth High School at the World Affairs Institute in Cincinnati. This convention is held to further youth's knowledge of problems and affairs of the world. Representatives from high schools in Ohio, Indiana, and Kentucky meet each year for a two-day convention. During this time many famous speakers give their points of view on a prescheduled topic. Tours of various businesses, delicious food, dancing, accommodations at the beautiful Netherland Plaza Hotel, and the opportunity of meeting so many new people are only a few of the attractions offered. It is an unforgettable experience. PRINCE 8.

VARSITY BASKETBALL W. H. S. can be justly proud of its basketball team. After losing the first four games of the season, the varsity team began a winning streak which was not to be stopped un- til the close of the season. The total number of games won was 15. Never in the history of W. H. S. basketball has a team won so many consecutive games as our team did this year. The team scored a total of 1352 points, compared with 1131 scored by their oppon- ents. This is a record number of points to be scored in a single year. In tournament play at Kent, Wadsworth returned victorious after defeating their first opponent, St. Vincent, 57-50. During this game Tom Marrin broke the all-time tourn- ament record by scoring 30 points. The second game was lost to Cuyahoga Falls by a 59- 45 margin.

WOLF, OPTOMETRIST 85 ALMA MATER Have you ever wondered about the history of the school song of Wadsworth High School-how it was written, why it was written, when it was written? Last fall the annual staff was curious to find the answers to these questions, and eager to make the informa- tion known to the students of W. H. S. in the Whisperer: so the search for information began. The staff members have pieced together the bits of information that they found and have discovered that our school song has quite an interesting history. The music was written in 1933 by Gloria Lester, who was then a senior at W. H. S. At that time, it was the custom for one of the seniors to write a class song. The music, with different words, was originally meant for that purpose. Three years later, in 1936, Mr. E. K. Bennett, the band and orchestra director, sug- gested that W. H. S. have a school song. He sponsored a contest among the students in which they were to write new words to Gloria Lester's music. Among others, Magel Wil- liams submitted an entry in the contest, and she was declared the winner. The words that we sing today were written by her. For several years the Alma Mater was used only for special occasions. Then in 1941 a copy of the original manuscript made its first appearance in the Whisperer. This origi- nal version was used until 1946, when Mr. Kingsley Sears arranged it for four-part sing- ing. Since then the alma mater song has become an important part of each event at W. H. S. Yes, our Alma Mater is truly a school song, for it was written by two students of our school. The seniors join all the alumni of Wadsworth High School in singing the words, To you, Alma Mater, we always will remain so true ..... THE WRIGHT DEPT. STORE Alma Majei' g . , S?
