Pollock I I I I I I I I I I I I I I Q95 Purple and Gold Waite High School Nineteen-twenty-one To 5141 CPoll0ck Smile, and the world smiles with you, Growl, and you growlalonef' This might be the creed of our principal-to smile, and make the world a better, a happier place in which to live. We do not think of Mr. Pollock as the principal of Waite Highg we do not think of him as an autocrat to be approached on bended knee-we cannot think of him as that-but always do we regard him as the man, who, by his cheery, hearty greeting and optimistic advise, chases away the engulfing gloom and makes us see a brighter lining to the dark cloud. Mr. Pollock has absolute faith in Waite. He is ever ready to extend a help- ing hand to the pupils under him.He has kept thruout his position as principal, a personal touch-a fatherly touch with all the students. And with the intimate facts that he has gathered in the many heart-to-heart talks that he has had with his pupils, he knows that he can place explicit trust in them. And in this he is not mistaken. By his ready smile, his cheerful, uplifting conversations with his students, he has endeared himself in their hearts. VVaite would not be Waite without Mr. Pollock. By his sincere regard and love for his pupils, he has made school life a time of real enjoyment. The drudgery has been taken away. A And so, we cannot think of Waite or any of its many organizations and in- terests without thinking of Mr. Pollock, who, by his readiness to give to us all that he has, makes our school life one that in later years will bring back to us many sweet and happy memories.

Herbert Jenne Lillian Beckman Marie Harms C655 Purple and Gold Waite High School Nineteen-twenty-one ? 00,111 N F 1lll,'u 0 I ,xt Q! .f f-Li? ?i The sun was sinking low behind a cloud That floated slowly through yon western sky. The last fair rays of beauteous golden light Were flooding all the landscape far and near. And all around was clad in sunset rays Of gold, of red, and purple sprinkled hues, While far below the new born leaves did bow And slightly tremble to the gentle breeze- The breeze of May that comes all loaded full Of perfumes it had gathered from the blossoms. Softely it sings its melodies of spring And whispers to each lately budded flower That lifts its wakened head high to the skies, And seeks in vain for one small drop of dewg The breeze of Nlay that scurries through the fields Of newly sprouted ryeand clover sweet, 4 That casts abroad its sweetly scented breathg The breeze that bids each tiny bud to wake. Each tender blade of grass greens one by one And lifts its tiny spear point to the sky. T was here upon a mound of beauteous green, Beside a stream that sung in accents silvery, Amid the beauteous rays of the sinking sun, Bathed by the cool and gentle breeze, And breathing the sweet perfumed air of spring, I, weary of the long day's gruesome toil, Lay down to steep my soul in naturels bliss. I listened to the breezes whispering soft And low their secrets to the 'wakening flowers. l watched the last long rays of beauteous glow Grow dark and sink behind the lingering cloud. C663 pgffia Purple and Gold Waite High School Nineteen twenty one I harkened to the ex ening songs of birds, That flitted here and there, and finally When they had sung their ev'ning song of praise From off the bough that hung nearby their nests, Sank down within their downy homes of straws, And soon a solemn stillness filled the land. And then, from out the golden colored sky, A single cloud came forth before my eye. Entranced I saw a vision in the cloud That loitered dreaming in yon sunset sky, Full of fair shapes, half visible to the eye And half enwrapped by winds of fantasy In golden mist, an everlasting crowd. There, mid the unreal forms that came and went In air-spun robes, of evanescent dye, And treading o'er the streets of purest gold, And all bedecked by diamonds of the sky, The beauteous stars that guide the sailor's way, And brightly lighted by Diana's rays, Which shone like rich clad waves of silvery tone As when she shines upon the ocean's face And casts a glorious silver to the sky, A womanls semblance shone pre-eminent. Not armed like Pallas, nor like Hera proud, But clad in garments loose, and flowing trains That rippled lightly to the gentle breeze. A maiden she, half mortal, half divine, Whose presence freshened all the gloomy air. Fairest of all the fair-yet fairer still, Dwelling in hut and rich abounding hall, Heart of all Grace, creator of life out of naught, Who never turned a suppliant from her door, Whose victories are gains of all mankind. She stands unheeded 'mong the hastening throng, And nods and bids in vain to all who pass. And, like an angel sings the news from heaven. But lol the mad world dances heedless on After its butterflies-and gives no sign. But onl ye fortunate one, who hears her call And follows in her light and Winsome steps To you shall be the ever glorious prize, To you eternal fame shall always be- For the name of this fair maid is Opportunity. And when ye see her glorious face so fair Or hear her golden voice call soft and low, Speed on your foot steps to her beckoning hand And follow her, though few accompany you. Go when she calls you, wait not e'en an hour. For, like the waning stars in morning skies, When Phoebus from his watery bed does rise And fills the purple dawn with golden rays, She may forever vanish from thy sight, 4679 Purple and Gold Waite High School Nineteen twenty one And would'st thou let the maiden pass you by? But yet she stands, yes, still she calls to you, An equal chance-but one to every man. While on and ever on the ignorant Crowds Formed by our mother Nature, but to fill The streets with presses, otherwise left bare, In blindness pass her by nor know their loss. And midst the ever pressing throng of men, In vain, Faith blows her trump to summon back Her scattered troup of those who've gone astray. And like a tiny spark of struggling fire, If strengthened by a light and gentle breeze, 'Twill grow and kindle in the heart of man. Till strengthened to an everlasting fiame, Will burn forever, and forever growg So faith, e'en brought into a faithless heart If blown but by the slightest breath of aid, Will grow and prove a great and needy friend To all who open up their hearts to her. But like that tiny spark of Natur's fire, If no encouragement is given her, She'll, ne'er the less, strive on, in vain to live But soon shall die and vanish from thy breast. Now noble Truth appears in white array, As pure as snows that fall from winterls skies. She gleams as if by magic or by charm, And e'en the sunshine steals his light from off her And ever held by thongs of Falsehood back, She struggles on. Her garments once so pure. And white now bear the signs of long abuse. Her sheveled locks once golden in their hue, Now're snarled by years of everlasting strife. Though overcome by Falsehood's lying lips, Though ever weak but always in the right She labors through her bitter course of life. See! How she flings her sacred arrows high And every where they light, they leave a pain Of bitterness, and still of righteousness. They soar around Ternptation's growing heart, face Pierce Error's guilty breast, but only for the healing Truth still leads those who follow, to the skies. The hope of Truth grows stronger, day by day, And every hour new signs of promise tell That the great soul shall once again be free. For high, and yet rnore high, the murmers swell Of inward strife for Truth and Liberty. But few, how very few, her footsteps follow- They start, but soon are lost in yonder space For they must upward still and onward go Who ever keep abreast with sacred truth. And they must strive and ever on pursue 7 C689 Purple and Gold Waite High School Nineteen twenty one Who wish the noble gifts of Truth to reap. For Beauty, Truth and all that these imply, Drop not like ripened fruit about our feet, We climb to them through years of pain and strife. Without long trouble none did e'er attain The longed for post by Quiet's blissful throne. And in that cloud enwrapped in golden mist, I see the shining form of perfect Beauty Whom men and women both fight on to win. But all their struggles seem to be in vain. A wealth of dark brown locks adorn her head, Her lovely shining face attracts the crowds, The brilliant sparkle of her dark brown eyes, Her form as perfect as the beauteous one Of Helen in the days of long ago, Summons both men and women from their work And lead them on by foolish promises. But many, ignorant of the paths ahead, Follow to the only promised goal, And after years of struggle and of toil, They find no goal, but learn too late their fault. And then I saw those sad and weeping ones. They passed me by like shadows, crowds on crowds, Dim ghosts of men, that hovered to and fro, Hugging their bodies 'round them like their shroud Wherein their souls lie mourning all the while. They trampled on their youth, and faith, and love, They cast their hope of human kind away. They lost all joy and pleasure of their life, And now are sad and mourn for what they've done. They pine and weep their weary lives away, And 'round their sad and ever weeping heart, I saw the mean clad form of a weeping man. He taunts and lashes, teases and torments Their hearts by foolish and by roguish words: A His teasing words, If this had been and that, Then that would not have been the same as this, And with such half-crazed words as these, that one Does ever taunt the weary hearts of men From early day 'till late at night, and e'en Through the whole night long he is near bv. Each tear that drops from off his saddened face, And falls upon some wretched mortals breast, Brings with it memories of what is gone, And of the sad, sad faults of yesterdav. His name is Might Have Been, sad Might Have B Who weeps in vain for days that have gone by. And Wisdom from her bower so high aloft. Calls down to those who pass her heedless. by So high she is that most the world of men 4693 J CCH Purple and! Gold Waite High Sehool Nineteen twenty one To reach her even fail-so pass her by, But those who follow faithful in her path Do find it one of thorns-not roses gay. Their faces bathed by tears of grief, and too, By sorrow's bitter marks of hard earned years, They ever onward press to win the prize, For Wisdom is stern Sorrow's patient child. And know that Strength and Wisdom only Hower When we toil for all that is our kind. And Love, Oh Love, how sweet and pure you were How beautiful and shining was your face When in that mystic cloud I you admired. I saw her fair, as fair as lily pure, When only one is opened to the sky. Pure Love seems like a beauteous blooming flower, But no, it is no fading, earthly flower, lt's tiny seed once dropped from Paradise And nursed by day and night, by sun and rain, Doth every hour to freshen beauty grow. It fills our hearts with richest thoughts, and too, With cares and sympathy for all mankind. Thru Love we learn to see the beauteous things That God hath given us to see and love. And as thruout the busy, busy world Ye climb the rugged paths of weary Life, Have love for all, no matter where ye be, And smoother your own pathway you will find, And full of joy your life shall always be. The love of all things spring from love of one, Wider the souls horizon hourly grow, And over it with fuller glory spreads The sky-like spirit of Love, a hope begun ln doubt and darkness 'neath a fairer light Comes to fruitage, if it be of Truth. Without Love you'd be naked, bleak, and bare As yon dead oak that grows upon the rock, And nature's teachings which come to thee now Would be as fruitless as a stream which gently Slips thru the wheel of some old ruined mill. And ripened Knowledge ever takes away The charm that Nature to thy childhood gave, But grudge it not, for with that insight new, Each day a greater bliss will fill thy heart, E'en greater than was Wonder long ago. Then more and more each day youill learn to know, And 'twill reveal some clue to greater things, And stumbling quest will be firm-footed art. Nor will thy Knowledge of adversity Rob thee of any faith of happiness. But rather clear thy inner eyes to see How many simple ways there are to love. 4705 Purple and Gold Waite High School Nineteen twenty one And there, throughout that ever shifting crowd, I saw the form of aged Experience. He slowly winds his way. His snow white Locks Cperhaps he was some ninety years of agej Were blowing in the breeze. And on his brow As white as were his locks, I could perceive A learned look so kind and fatherly. H He tried to teach the crowds of hast'ning men But they were dumb. He shook his withered finger As if to give them good and rich advice, But yet what good is his advice to men? Think! you'd say it's naught, and nothing more. For human beings learn an hour too late That all is vanity that lies below. But ah! Experience is a dumb, dead thing, The truest vict'ry's in the real believing. And as I lay upon my couch of green As if enchanted by some charmer's spell, That shining cloud seemed toward me to move, And as I closer viewed the unreal forms, I saw the humble and more common men Struggling on to reach the vanishing goal. And ever now and then the scene was changed. I saw the humble Workman quit his toil, And Wind his weary way toward his home. I saw the rich man as he leisurely Lolled on his velvet and made o'er his gold. He seemed to own the world and nothing less, But yet,-what had he, he might call his own. No happiness there is for him who's rich, No home-like peace, no, nothing but his gold- And what is gold? But yet men worship it, their lives they give Only to clutch its hard but shining form. And when they do succeed they have no more But less, than when their hands were nak'd and poor And in the cloud I see the one who's sad, And he who real happiness doth have. And there, up in his tower, sits the poet, And daily mid his weary toil aspires, While Grief and Hunger climb about his knee. While yet fair Blisses new and strange to him Po fill his toiling heart and overHow't With a magic wonder sweet and dim. The Lone Inventor by his demon haunted, Secluded from the world, he toils away. And as I watched that vision in the cloud, Rich thoughts of Life's hard struggles came to me, And thoughts new unto my youthful mind. And for the first I realized the truth, C719 Purple and Gold Waite High School Nineteen-twenty-one Of how the busy world goes heedless by, F orsakes you, and forgets your presence there, How hard must be the tasks and toils of Life For those ten millions of unfortunate souls Who labor and strive on to gain the prize. And while I lay upon my couch of green, Lulled sweetly by the beauteous silv'ry notes Of the nearby spring as o'er the rocks it tripped, And bathed by the cool and gentle breeze, And breathing the sweet perfumed air of spring I pondered o'er these- strange and doubtful thoughts, As in the cloud I watched the vision die. Shade by shade the airy forms did leave, Ray by ray the golden mist did fall, The purple glow of the sun's last beauteous rays Had vanished from the calm and tranquil sky. And soon the last long ray of gold departed And 'left the cloud again a barren cloud, And nothing more. And left the dark'ning sky An azure blue, most like the deep blue sea. Then as the cloud itself sailed slow away, Away from yonder magic patch of sky, Where just before the magic gold did gleam, Now's lighted by Diana's silvery rays, And set with diamonds, the brightly twinkling star. At first just only one bright sparkle's there, The evening star that early up doth rise And bid the Day to leave the world to night. But soon 'tis magically enriched by more, As one by one the gleaming sparks appear. And now all trace of light has disappeared, And Luna slowly strengthens in her light, And more and more the stars do fill the sky, As on and on the wings of night do fly. And now the pensive moonlight blurs my pines, While here I sit and meditate these lines. And now that cloud of purple and of gold, Since all its secrets and its tales has told, Has gone, and now the evening shadows fall, And round these splendors midnight wraps her pall. -S.

What's the latest word from the earth ? he inquired genially. The other gave a start and looked up. lt's not very much, Waite, what have you been doing lately? I just settled a little argument between Washington and Roosevelt as to how the battle of Waterloo should have been fought. It's all right now, tho, I told them they were both wrong. I wish there were something interesting to do. I'm getting bored. You're right, agreed Jehosaphat, yawning, since this reform wave has swept over the world, things in general down below have been rather quiet. Morrison R. Waite reached over and began lazily to turn the leaves of the huge book lying on the desk in front of the angel. Well, well, he chuckled, If James Wolfe hasn't got my old position as Chief Justice of the United States. That's so,', he continued, soberly, they named a school after me down there in Toledo, Ohio, and I haven't paid any attention to it since. James Wolfe belonged to the graduating class of 1921, didn't he? ,lehosaphat inquired thoughtfully. I have the records of some other students from that class, it seems to me. Would you care to look at them ? V A Yes, indeed, replied the Judge. Do you know Whether 'any' more of them reached Washington ? The recording angel hesitated a moment and then said: , 1731 Purple and Gold Waite High School Nineteen-twenty-one No, I don't, but Eugene Pearson has just established communication be- tween the other world and this by wireless, and I can send down to Washing- ton for the latest news, if you wish. Ile dkpatched a htde cherub to the udrdess rooni and inunediadey the answer came back on a small slip of paper, that: f'Mark Shovar, Rayner Bercher and Edward Rommel had been elected to the House of Representatives, wherein a spirited debate over the enforcement of the blue laws, Mark Shovar spoke for forty-eight hours continuously. On the other side of the paper was written: The first women members of the Senate to be elected from Ohio, were Ruth Shriver and Gladys Mangold. Ruth is a leader of the reformist party and was infiuential in the passing of the Anti-Tobacco Act. Gladys was elected on her 'dress up America' principles, thereby defeating Katherine Berno's hus- band in spite of his fond wife's frantic curbstone campaigns. As soon as Jehosaphat had recorded this in the book, he picked up his long telescope from force of habit, and casually surveyed the Atlantic coast. What are all those books stacked mountain high on the counters of book stores in the East, he cried. Why they are the tenth edition of George Fur- manls latest best seller, The lllan Beautiful, published by the Herbert Jenne Pubhdung Cknnpany Now, I promised to show you some names, he said, transferring his gaze frorn earth to the liook of Ileaven. Ile turned back a fevv pages and ran his finger down the closely written sheets.

He glanced at the op- posite page and saw the reason for the popularity along Broadway, of Arthur Frautschi's Follies of 1922. It was Persis Border who always takes New York by storm when she dances on an immense keyboard stretched across the stage, and plays her own accompaniment with her feet.

His latest piece, Foolish Phzzntasies, well into its third season, is being produced by Webb Tuttle, who has staged some of the most notable productions in the country. Helen Wickenden, who rose from the chorus is starred. Grace Plain is end man of the Weeping Willow Minstrel show, written into the last act 'to afford comedy relief for the tragic ending. The road company has Eunice Friend in the leading part and Luella Hill in support. They are good actresses and aspire to heavy dramatic roles. Then Jehosaphat called his attention to an item at the bottom of the page. HHoward Rowell is advertising manager for the exclusive Rinker-Helbing Company, of New York. He has complete charge of the spring and autumn style shows and has made them an institution which people flock to see. lt is his duty to select the girls who will wear the beautiful gowns on display in this fashionable store. Pauline Teft, Ruth Lee, Helen Moses, Dorothy Don- nely and Alice Thompson are only a few of the girls Howard has made famous. A singular honor has been conferred upon Wesley McKee, remarked the angel, in giving him, during his life time, a place in the Hall of Fame at the 1745 Purple and Gold Waite High School Nineteen-twenty-one University of New York. He writes the most charming and delicate love lyrics. And here, continued the angel, are some more members of this class, The Diving Girls, Hazel Flegle, Varie Faneuff, Bertha Fowler, Marian Douglas and Hazel Critzer, are the latest additions to the cast of Surprises at the Hippodrome. This also will interest you. After playing to packed houses for one solid year in a Shakespearian repertory, Marguerite Murphy and Samuel Lynn have started on a tour of the principal cities of the United States. Their greatest success is in the Taming of the Shrew. Jehosaphat started to thumb over the leaves. A name caught Mr. Waite's eye. Turn back a little, he said, I saw Toledo just as you flipped that page, and surely some of the graduates must have stayed right at home and taken up their life work. The other turned back. 4'To be sure, he said, and began reading aloud. Jane Wiles installed a huge gymnasium in Toledo, free to everyone. It is a combination of Y. W. C. A. and Salvation Army Headquarters. The insti- tution is supervised by Charlotte Quill and the various departments are in the hands of Constance Muntz, Hattie Recht, Ruth Warner, Mildred Stuck, Alta Spackey and Iris Oberle. This building was closed recently by order of the Mayor, Donald Fisher. Jane had organized a basket ball team, with Roy Young as coach, and when the girls insisted upon borrowing the English idea and wear- ing Scotch kneesfl and abbreviated suits, the scandalized citizens ordered a stop put to it at once. Toledo is a moral, upright city now. I wonder what has happened at Waite? suddenly inquired the Judge. That ought to be among these entries, and it is, too. Waite has won every game since Carl Benson, who made the All Ohio Eleven, took charge of the football squad. During the basket-ball season the dancing after the game is done to Lavanda Schlupp's orchestra, reputed to be the best in the city. 'When Mr. Vossler severed his connection with Waite, he bequeathed his position to Walter Kruse who is trying to follow in his predecessor's footsteps. The two men drew the book a little nearer and glanced at the top of the next page. HEleanor Bassett and Adelaide Kiemle have started a new idea with re- gard to beauty shops. Durelle Otten and Clarence lVIyers are employed as manicurists to bring in the fair custcmers. lt is not really necessary for Clar- ence to do this, but it increases his already large income, which he likes to spend on the girls. Sara and Kathryn Smith, who are conducting a similar establish- ment across the street, find it hard to keep up with so much competition. Ann Brouhard is recorded here somewheref' Jehosaphat murmured to himself. She is president of the Tuesday Afternoon Ladies' Club. Notorious among the members are Nora Findlay, Minnie Kohne, Rita Carnall, Beatrice Bancroft, Maxine Lyon and Lilla Brown. They are all young married wo-men of the city, and such a babble as arises when a forceful lecturer speaks on the rights of man in the home. Ann is interested in dramatics and wanted to put on Romeo and Juliet, but they all wanted to be Juliet to Frederick Schoettley's Romeo, and the thing fell thru. Some one has told Frederick that he can paint and he has gone in for Art, with a capital A, flowing,ties, Japanese dressing gown, and studio teasf, One may obtain help in making out his income tax report by seeing Bur- ton Nopper, I believe, said Jehosaphat. His early training enables him to pick up a tidy sum of money besides what he earns as sales manager for the Tilford Greenaway Athletic Supply Company. 4753 Purple and Gold Waite High School Nineteen-twenty-one Margaret Knisely took a Kindergarten course, the Judge grinned, and she finds she can make good use of her training right at home. I think a death blow has been given to Jazz, the angel ventured, since Thelma Dorr is making Victor records, and has been composing such dreamy Waltzesf' And can it be possible? In spite of the tendency of the day and age, When Felix King, nationally known humorist, spoke at the Coliseum, he drew many people away from a great revival meeting led by the famous evangelist, Merritt Metz. Clifford Barrett was scheduled to lead the singing. He helps Merritt at all his services. I can't find the record, but you remember the old Saxon Auditorium, don't you? Well, the first performance of the combined Toledo Opera and Royal Russian Ballet Company, of which Mary Ruth Boardman is the dancing- director, marked the opening of the new theatre, designed by the architect, John Davis, that takes the place of the old building. Manager Abe Goldstein came out and made a long speech. The prima donna, Margaret Sargent, developed temperament at the last moment and her understudy, Dorothy Gwen, appeared in her stead. She received eleven curtain calls. Marian Bowland and Audrey Gea executed a graceful dance called the Dream of Pale Wornezz. Margaret Brower and Reuben Goldstein received great applause in a symbolical dance representing the Call of Knowledgei Frederick Dahn was in 'charge of the stage furniture and other properties. Special scenic effects were designed by art director Lucille Hill, and Henrietta Schippers led the symphony orchestra. Mary Ruth had, with great difficulty, obtained Huburtus McLain, pianist ex- traordinary, of the Metropolitan Opera Co., for the first night, but the enthus- iasm accorded him was well wort'h the trouble. Rachel Kellar, Dorothy Lee, and Gladys Rowell, who had decided never to marry, broke the rules of their Diana Club and attended the function with Cecil Murphy, who is a great educator along the lines of scientific farming. The Mud-Hens have finally won the pennant, the' judge joyfully ex- claimed. Arland Innis' pitching is responsible for it. I am glad to see that. I always liked baseball. Just then a new arrival from Toledo walked in thru the pearly gates. Let's ask her for some news, suggested Jehosaphat, Good afternoon, Madam, he addressed her as she passed 'by them. I'm the recording angel and this is Morrison R. Waite. We want to know whether you could tell us something that's taking place in the city you just left. Do you happen to know any grad- uates of Waite? The woman acknowledged the introduction and smiled eagerly. Yes, she said, I know a few. I should be glad to tell you anything about them. Aha,',said Jehosaphat in an undertone to his companion, this is fine. She's a gossip, you can tell that. Well, began the stranger, settling herself composedly in a roomy chair, it was in the paper the other night that a rich uncle had died and left George Booth a million dollars. The strain was tco much for him. He went to a sanitarium to recover and found Dorothy Gassaway and Alice Zimmer, who had collaborated with Miss Gibson in writing Gibsorfs Latin for the Masses and its Relation to Slang, and other Common Thingr. They say this 'book is largely responsible for making Latin the universal language. And Clarence Kitchen bought out a correspondence school which taught how to become strong, and ,changed it to how to become strong-minded. His Slpgan is, 'Be lllentally Fit-Don't Depend Upon Bluflingf Kitchenism counts many followers. A 4755 Purple 'and Gold Waite High School Nineteen-twenty-one Hifhxor Clreugn she conthiued Hvvas brought up in court a short tune ago before Judge Ward Cordill, on the charge of bigamy. Edgar Stoddard was the lawyer for the defense and I heard that it was owing entirely to his elo- quence and not to Victor Crew's reputation, that the case was won. Do you happen to be interested in bowling, either of you? No? But then this concerns us women more especially anyway. Roland Leonard has invented a ball which goes straight down the center of the alley, no matter how it is thrown-it may even be thrown in the opposite direction. This is accomplished by means of a cleverly concealed magnet. Roland has retired for life, but he still owns an immense bowling alley, operated by Franklin Ben- Mer, Eugene Clvernner and CfhHord IIoHibaugh. You've heard of Professor Stowe, haven't you? When he laid down his work at Toledo University, Helen Haley took his place. She made Jeanette Tracy instructor in English and Loretta Beese and Alice Bisnette, professors of Psychology. Harry Stegenga received the chair of Public Speaking and Im- passioned Oratory, with Grace Boughton and Alta Pugh as assistants. Marana Baker, who has just completed a history of the United States in eight volumes, not to speak of her Commentary on Civics, besides, is teaching those subjects in the same institution. She paused for breath. HIsn't there anything else?H the jiidge encouraged her in his kindly way. 'fNothing I can think of just now. Yes, there is, too. I've heard it said that threefourths of the derbhs vvorn in the Ilnited States are turned out by George Keller's factory. And Helen Herbert has just had a new branch library named after her in recognition of her faithful work in the Toledo Pub- he Iibrary. That's about all the old Waite students I know, she finished. It's a beautiful day, isn't it? I really must be going. The two men thanked her and remained standing until she disappeared. They resumed their seats and Morrison R. Waite broke off a piece of cloud and fanned himself with it reflectively. Suddenly a roaring sound reached his ears, muffled by the distance. 'AThat must be from the Indianapolis tracks, remarked Jehosaphat, who had also heard it. It's that reckless speed fiend, Robert Matthews, breaking the worldls record again. A hundred and ten this time. His skilled mechanic, Edward Gogel, is still with him I trust. There's some commotion down there in Canada, too, the recording angel murmured, leaning over sideways to see better. If it isn't Lucille Scouten lecturing to the inhabitants on the benehts to be derived froni prohibidon.H He settled back in his chair and turned his attention to the book once more. Almost immediately he found this: Ruth Farrell is president of an agricultural college in Iowa, which spec- ializes in designing attractive house dresses for farmer's wives. I wonder how I. B. Swan is coming out. He was trying to reach the South Pole the last time I saw him and sure enough, he said, pointing to the place, after a long and perilous journey, he has found it. Further down the page, the Chief Justice saw an account of the new singing and dancing act of the Shamrock Sisters, known in private life as Helen Campbell, Dorotha Taylor and Dorathea Campbell. When this trio arrived in Los Angeles, they went to visit a motion picture studio where some of their friends were employed. On one set they saw Ruth Zahrly, who has made herself famous by crossing her eyes., performing in comedy. On another lot, Robert Kinker in a very quiet tone of voice, and with few words, was directing 1771 Purple and Gold Waite High School Nineteen-twenty-one Maud Upton, fresh from Lelah Holdenis Dramatic School, in a tense scene from Edith Rollo's big stage success. Glen Schick was making passionate love to hisleading vvonnan nearby. That reminds me, the angel said, Ralph Barnes is conducting a matri- monial bureau in Southern California, and since he has had such remarkable success in mating other people, it seems too bad that he can't help himself in the same manner. I guess therels no more in this book. l'll get my old one. If I remember, more names are in there. He left and returned in a few minutes with a book sinular to the other. Ile opened it at randoni and conunented on the various records as he read thenr When Lysle Griggs, the owner of the Pacific Steamship Line, was tak- ing a vacation on one of his own steamers, he met Isabella Harry, eminent sur- geon and physician, who was crossing the ocean to engage in a search for the sleeping sickness germ in the Philippines. Harold Sullwold, the newly ap- pointed American 'consul to these islands, was also on his way over to assume his duties. He was very glad to receive this post, as he thought perhaps there vvould be fevver wvornen in this part of the wvorld. Ilarold Cfook, deadly secret service operative, was on the trail of some priceless diamonds stolen from Wade Ladd, a wealthy New York financier. Hilding Johnson was on board also, going to the Htde knovvn Elands of the hdalay fkrchipelago to explore and dravv maps of the different groups. When he arrived, the first person he saw was Stuart Campbell, who is the agent for Fuller brushes in the Solomon Islands. ffhen Jehosaphatturned uithe Judge,HI overheard a conversanon beuveen two school -children in the province of Tamba, China, not so long ago. One of them said, 'I am blessed in having no home work today, as our honorable teacher, Florence Watters, forgot it.' The other one answered, 'Our most illustrious instructor, Marion McNees, has also seen fit to honor us wvnh the absence of any lessons. Bday the gods heap favors upon her and her days be HHed vvhh sunshine!'U He resumed his reading. Even Horton Lyle has felt the pervading spirit of the day and age, he read, in surprise, if you can judge by this. Accompanied by Rae Morse, who has just recently given up her missionary work among the Esquimos, he joined the expedition that is in the heart of Asia searching for the 'missing link.' De- spite their noble efforts, it wasn't found until Victor Gauthier succeeded in reaching the top of Mt. Everest, in the I-Iimalyas, by electric airplane, his own invention. Nothing more on this page, said the Judge. I'll turn the leaves slowly and you watch carefully for familiar names. HStopf' conunanded the other, ahnostinstandy. HIlere are amuef' Having found in America that it would save time and trouble to con- solidate all churches into one, Hoyt Boden is at the head of a movement in India, to bring together the many thousand sects of this land. Esther Kech and Agnes Findlay are bringing the message of universal suffrage to the women of Turkey. Now go on. Preparatory to a lecture tour, Lillian Beckman is studying conditions in Spain, the angel said, as the pages slipped by.

Three of his models are Violet Miller, Helen 1785 Purple and Gold Waite High School Nineteen-twenty-one Ruben and Helen Goetz. Violet has introduced a new style of head band to Europe, which is all the rage. Irene lVIcGinety, Helen Roberts, and Carl Nol- ler, new thought enthusiasts, are in the Latin Quarter, studying the impres- sionistic school of art. Isn,t this fine? the angel asked. Alex John, the American distance runner at the Ninth Olympiad held in Pershing Stadium, France, was the out- standing figure of the meet, easily winning the ten thousand meter race. These women are certainly taking things out of our hands, sighed Waite resignedly. Hilda Sasse is the ambassador to France. Of course she's the first, but it only paves the way for more things of this kind. I see, added the Judge, that Warren Gressley, universally known as Simonds II, is making a name for himself in Russia, where he has slept thru more revolutions than any other war correspondent. He wrote a novel about the Bolshevic upheaval in Moscow. In it he gave his own opinion of the up- rising as well as the generally accepted view, and very appropriately called it Two Tales of ll City. Now this may sound like gossip, rejoined the angel, hut it was rumored that the English Parliament offered the position of prime minister to Chester Clark if he would settle the Irish question for them, after all other means had failed. It's not known how he did it, but he's prime minister now. Helen Reese is also in London to see how the library in the British Mu- seum is managed so that she may be able to revolutionize our congressional libray at Washington, of which she is in charge. And then Morrison R. Waite and the recording angel closed the hook softly and went in to drink a rousing health to the class of 1921, over two brimming glasses of nectar. I don't know what their toast was, but mine would be: Here's to our seniors, may they accomplish greater things than have been thrust upon them in this prophecy.

The conductor. who, at the time, was eating the lunch perpared by his good wife, hastily cleared his throat and announced the station. Lakeside, he called, with the usual irouthing of the word. Imme- diately three young men, who, besides two or three chattering foreigners, re- turning from the Gypsum quarries, were the only passengers, thrust aside the newspapers and magazines they had been reading, and, each seizing a suitcase, alighted from the car. With a sigh of escaping air, the antique interurban pro- ceeded on its journey, gathering momentum each second. Soon it disappeared around a curve, leaving the young men standing alone at a deserted station. Around this trio our story centers. The station at which they alighted was Lakeside, Ohio, a well known summer resort, about sixty miles from Toledo, far-famed for its beauty. It is situated on Lake Erie a few miles east of Port Clinton. During the summer season, this colony will number in the neighbor- hood of five thousand people, but during the period of autumn, winter and spring there is no more desolate spot than this same place. As far as one can see, there is nothing but deserted cottages, hotels and pavilions, all securely locked and boarded up. The only inhabitants are a hundred or so natives who live their lives out in that beautiful spot. Some present-day Goldsmith need but to visit here to find ideal atmosphere for his Deserted Village. Yet there is a some- thing, a solemn feeling of awe that fills one as he wanders among the silent homes of deserted people. Especially is this true during the Fall, when Nature with her magic bmsh, has painted each little leaf with colors borrowed from butterflies' wings, and then, with a soft breath, sends them fluttering down to their winter's bed where they wait for the warm and protecting blanket of snow crystals. Then it is that Nature is at her best. She does not put on her finest dress during the summer, but waits until profane eyes have gone to other scenes, and no one is left but the simple native folk. With plenty of water and sunshine, she goes busily about her fall housekeeping, and when she has finished her task, an electric energy seems to rush madly through the clean, crisp atmosphere, and 1805 Purple and Gold Waite High School Nineteen-twenty-one fill one with new blood and a fresh tonic of life. The overarching heaven, sparkling and shining from its recent cleansing, towers overhead in one vast dome of royal blue. Old Mother Earth, garbed in her robe of many colors, and covered with drifting heaps of dead leaves, feels winter and the cold white death approach- ing, and waits impassively. As for Lake Erie, her beauty is beyond description. At times during the Falk her bosoni heaves uuldh'in the niad batde vhth the eh nentg and vvnh the force of a thousand giants, she hurls herself upon the rocks along the shore, while the spray rises into the air like blinding, smothering geysers. Then during the night, the storm will spend itself, and the morning sun rises upon a body of water so smooth as to remind one of a mirror-Naturels looking glass. The atmosphere, crisp and clear, brings into sharp relief objects miles away. Out in Lake Erie, over fifteen miles fromshore, Perryls monument flings its finger of granite tovvard the blue vault overhead. dfo the right Hes PCeH5Vs lsland, four miles out, but so rare is the air, that, as the natives put it, one can almost see the Hy specks on the vvhidovv panes Cln the evening of CDctober 15, 1920, this deserted sununer colony found its population increased by three-the three new additions we left at the station vvatching the car turn a curve and.chsappear. dfhey have noxv been standing there for some time and need our attention. Of the three, Ralph Langly was the oldest. He was a vigorous and healthy specimen of American manhood, just turning the twenty-fifth milestone. He had proposed the trip, and was the naturalleader of the other tuur It wvas his fathers cottage they wvere going to occupy for the next few weeks. He was the possessor of an agile brain within a marvelous body. He was an adventure-loving man, a typical American. His two companions were both younger than he. Although one of them struggled under the Teutonic name of Oscar Zimmerman, yet a more loyal Yankee could not be found. His build and features betrayed his nationality at first sight. A little, stubby figure enabled him to stand a fair chance with many a taller chap. His face were it not for the large horn-rimmed glasses, could easily be mistaken for a full moon. His was a mathematical brain, in a large measure, though he also possessed a keen sense of humor. He was the direct antithesis to Ralph, but was one of his most devoted friends. The youngest of the trio had just come of age. He was of rather delicate binld, with an IJDUSUHHY inteHigent countenance, and vvas given to occadonal day dreaming. He possessed a genius for sketching, and had a peculiar type of sketching all his own. lnclined to be sentimental, he was, nevertheless, as lively a companion as the others could wish. His apparent frailty disguised him, as many a man found who thought him easy picking. A dark skin and black eyes suggested French decent, and such he was, his name, in fact, being Jean Mer- cereau. All three had, until the last week, been employed by the Willys-Overland Company, as draftsmen. Now they were mere infinitesimal specks in the great mass of men out of work. They had been hit by the slump, being almost the first to go. Ralph knew, as did the others, that work would not be forthcoming for n1an5'vveeks at the earhesg and therefore he proposed this Htle V3Clt.OH. IX little opposition was shown, but with his persistent persuasiveness, he at last got Oscar's and Jean's asent. He assured Jean that his fortune would be made if he could sketch sonae of the marvelous sunsets and sunrises that were to be seen at Lakeside. Arrangements being at last completed, thev left the dusty and noisy city and embarked on this vacation of absolute ease and restful quiet. Tqight had faHen before they reached their desnnatunr Iltter darkness surroiuidcd theny save for a feeble incandescent bulb that served both as a street 1817 Purple and Gold Waite High School Nineteen-twenty-one light and a railway signal. They heard no sound except an occasional sigh, as the night wind swept through the leafless tops of the countless trees that make Lakeside a veritable forest. No sign of human life anywhere. Were it not for the few signs of modern life that showed themselves, one might have thought that Hume rnagic genii had carried the boys back to the days of the prhninve Indians. Skirdng the shore of the I,ake,they passed through a park and stopped be- fore the first cottage on the other side. Ralph produced a key, and soon the door swung inward, the rays of the flash light revealing bare, unplastered walls, a carpetless floor, some wicker chairs, a small library table in the center, and, in a far corner, a china cupboard vvhich contained the dishes and sdver used by the summer residents. On top- of the cupboard a lamp chimney reflected the rays of the flashlights. Taking this down, Ralph lit the wick and soon the room was filled with its light. Oscar closed the door and dropped into a chair. Home! Be it ever so humble, thereis no place like a square meal and a bed. Which reminds me that I could eat and feel better. Where's the kitchen, Ralph ? Wait a minute. I want to take my duds up stairs. It's rather musty in here, and a few windows opened up there will make the air fresher. Bring up your grips and take your pick of beds, for we've got eight of 'emf' Leaving the lamp burning on the table, Ralph took the boys up stairs, where he found another handy lamp, and soon its gleam revealed a row of beds that made the moon look like a hospital ward. Big beds htde bedsglean beds,fat bedsf' quoth Jean, as he gazed upon the great variety. It was also seen that the upstairs was divided into two com- partments by a partition. 'The other side is the ladies' compartment, Ralph explained. There are as nnany beds there as heref' Four Windows, one at each end and two on the side, afforded plenty of fresh air for the boys. Flinging all open, Ralph soon produced a lessening of the musty odor. Oscar flashed his light out of one of the side windows, and it showed him the white side of some large building, its many windows boarded up, and the whole as tenantless as a last yearls bird's nest. What's this place next door? he asked. That's 'Restmore Inn', was Ralph's explanation. It's one of the big hotels here. It is more of a sanitor- ium, for all the old people come there and stay the summer through. But they xvont bother us novv,they're gonef' Down stairs the kitchen was soon lit up, and a fire in the small range was burning brhkly. fXH three of the boys had liad a pretty strenuous day, and, after eating what they had brought with them, they unanimously decided to go to bed. The night air was becoming noticeably chilly, and the blankets with wduch the beds were provided, proved vveh1nne,indeed. Each boy occupied a bed, and soon the cool,refreshing night breeze, and the pleasant xvairnth of the blankets carried them to the land of slumber, while darkness and silence reigned. Thus several hours passed, the hands of Ralph's watch marked the hour of two. Strange noises arose on the night calm, unknown to the sleeping boys. The silent dip of muffled oars could be faintly heard coming closer, closer toward the shore. Then a twig snapped, dead leaves rustled under some one's stealthy footsteps. A moment of silence, followed by a short, low whistle. Then silence again. Suddenly a resounding boom shattered the stillness. Instantly Ralph awoke. His habit of light sleeping asserted itself. Dazed with slumber, he forgot his surroundings, and, in the silence that followed the sound, wondered whether he had not been dreaming. He heard the light breathing of his two C829 Purple and Gold lfVaite High School Nineteen-twenty-one companions. But again came a dull, hollow boom, fainter, but seemingly by his side, and within reaching distance. He knew then that it was not a dream. And still another pound made him positive. He sprang to an open window. Darkness and the damp dew of early morning greeted him-and an oppressive silence. To his sharpened ears came a faint but steady pounding. lt seemed to be directly beneath him. Then it shifted its position, now here, now there, until he became utterly confused. He remained motionless several minutes, unmindful of the cold, damp breeze. Finally the pounding ceased. Strain them as he might, his ears could catch no further sound. Suddenly he awoke to the fact that he was cold. Back to bed he went-but not to sleep. VVith puzzled brain he lay there, until, as the Hrst grey streaks of dawn flung themselves victoriously against the dark warriors of night, he fell into a troubled slumber. Over the tree-tops came the sun, giving the earth a sweet morning kiss. Nature bestirred herself and awoke. Birds with the hue of Joseph's coat, flitted here and there in ecstacy, their merry warbling and chirping Hlling the crisp air. Over the placid lake a deep silence reigned. Then came a merry whistle. and a small boy passed before Kosy Kornersf' as the boy's cottage was called, with a water bucket, bound for the well in the park. The blankets on one of the beds heaved suddenly, and the face of Oscar popped out from the depths of the pillow. He yawned, stretched, sat upright, looked at his watch, and then carefully aimed a pillow at -Iean's head. The shot went true. Jean grunted, turned over and went back to slumberland. Another pillow sailed through the air. Jean mumbled under his breath, then, with a jerk, sat up and asked the time of day. Six bells, you lazy Irishman! Arouse yourself, man, and gulp down some of this air. Yea. Uh-huh. What time did you say it was ? Time to get up. Going fishing today, you know, and have to dig for bait. Ralph, wakened by the noise of the two boys, sat up in bed and looked around him. Huh 1 Huh, what? Ralph did not answer immediately, but gazed strangely at the open window. and at the sparkling water that shimmered in the morning sun. Say, what's the matter with you? Don't you know us? Wake up, boyl It's a great fishing day, and, believe me, l'm getting cold. B-r-rr-rr-r. Who's going to build that fire? l suppose l must. l'll have your breakfast sent up to you. Say, Ralph, what's wrong? f'Did you fellows hear anything last night? Anything like pounding? Us? Not that l know of. Did you hear anything, Jean ? No, l was as sound asleep as a hibernating bear. Me, too. And l feel as hungry as a hibernating bear. Well, admitted Ralph, 'fl must have been dreaming, but l'm sure I wasn't. lt seems to me that l was wide awake, and by heavens, I WAS awake. At any rate, you fellows should know that there is something wrong in the state of Denmark. And Ralph, while dressing, related his experiences of a few hours before. He finished and went down stairs. Oscar turned to Jean and winked. Trying to scare us. He dreamed it, or else he's got some imagination. VVho on earth would want to come to this deserted place to try and see whether they could pound a nail without hitting their fingers ? Going down to the kitchen, they found Ralph starting a fire in the stove. He sent Jean, instructing him explicitly as to directions, to the store to get thc 1831 . H Purple and Gold VVaite High School Nineteen-twenty-one day's provisions. Oscar was allowed to do as he pleased. Ralph himself went after water. There is only one well in Lakeside. It is situated in the center of the park, and to it everyone must go for water. Ralph, clad in a big warm sweater, his whole body absorbing the beauty of the park and lake, swung along the path with strong, sturdy strides. He perceived that another person, a young lady, was also approaching the well. As she drew closer, Ralph stopped his sky-gazing, and his pace slowed perceptibly. His brain whirled. Stepping upon the plat- forni a htde before hen he caught a glnnpse of her face!-and forgot aH che. His manners asserted themselves, though, and he politely filled her bucket with water. In a voice of melodious sweetness, she thanked him, and passed on. Unmindful of all save her enchanting beauty, Ralph pumped on-his enraptured gaze foHoyvu1g her departnig fornf Cold water splashing on his feet brought him to his senses. He filled his own bucket and trudged back. But he moved mechanically. Before him danced a face so divinely beautiful and sublime that it seemed as if an angells face were flitting before his eyes, Who is she ? he asked himself. Am I awake, or am I still dreaming? Those eyes! That mouth! That smile-she canit be real! Who is she? That face-an angehs faceln dfhus he vvas raving as he sturnbled into the kitchen.

There, deeply imprinted in the soft soil, Ralph's startled gaze saw the shoe-marks of a broad foot. Bending closer he discovered, in the maze of foot-marks, the small, pointed shoes of a woman. He straightened up and glanced queerly at Oscar. After a brief moment, he exclaimed: I'll be hanged. When I came up here I thought I was going to rest, but Ilve had more excitement in the few hours we've been here than in a whole year in the city. Tlhese footprints! D'ye notice this womanls shoeprint? Didn't I tell you I wasn't dreaming? 'fYes, Oscar admitted. We thought you were kidding us, but this evidence dispells that theory. It seems to me that we are getting into something serious. You can't tell what we might he running into. 'AI feel the same way, said Ralph.

That morning the boys discussed at great length the perplexing situation. All three felt that it was something serious in which they had become implicated. I didn't expect to find all this hub-dub down here, Jean said. No, Ralph assented, not for us at any rate. But as a sure means of safety, we will have to set up guards during the night. And starting tonight, too. 1843 d C ld Waite High School Nineteen-twenty-one Purple an vo These strange people may not know that we are here-but safety first. Tonight l'll stay up from ten to ene, Oscar from twelve to three, and Jean from two to Hve. You see that then there will be two fellows up from twelve to three, the most 'crucial hours, and two fellows will be o. k., for, if things act tonight like they did last night, company will feel good. The Colt that I brought along. will always be on the dresser upstairs. Is this plan agreeable to you fellows? We will change our hours each night. Fine, exclaimed Oscar, and Jean nodded encouragingly. 'fAll right, then, but let's not worry until the time comes to worry. That evening, while sitting on the veranda steps, watching the sun sink in glorious profusion in the West, Ralphls thoughts carried him back to the first sight of the face that had been haunting him throughout the day. And in the golden path that stretched across the water from the shore to the sinking sun, l e saw a vis-ion, clad in robes of purest gold, with a face so bewitchingly beautiful as to seem unearthly, coming majestically down the path toward. Closer it came-and he saw a silver radiance shining from its angelic face. It was his earth-angel. He sighed deeply, closed his eyes for a brief moment, opened them -and the vision was gone. ' Toward ten o'clock that night the boys, tired from a day of hiking and fishin crept into their beds-all save Ralph, who was the first guard. At gy twelve he called Oscar, who, in turn, aroused Jean at two. But nothing oc- curred to break the stillness of the night. The following noon Ralph went to the 'store to buy food for dinner. As he swung round a corner at a brisk walk, he crashed into a young woman whose packages, shaken out of her arms, fell to the ground. With a sharp intake of breath, Ralph saw before him his earth-angel, at this moment filled with a look of surprise and not a little anger. With a Pardon me, Ralph picked up the scattered bundles and placed them in their owner's hands. 'AI beg your pardon a thousand times, he said. It was my fault-I had no reason for rushing round the corner as I did. Oh, mv pardon is granted, lim sure,U and the smile that she gave him caused Ralphgs heart to jump excitedly. He marveled at her voice, with its rich melody. You are a stranger, evidently, in these parts, she continued. f'On a visit, I presume? Yes. More of an enforced vacation, though.'Nothing to do in Toledo, e out here for a few weeks. Are making our home in the f'Kosy Kornersn cottage on the other side of the parkfy At these words a strange pallor stole over the face of the girl. It remained but for a fleeting moment, yet long enough to cause Ralph to wonder. After a few more words of conversation, Ralph again apologized for his rudeness, and left her, his brain sorely troubled by the strange paleness on the girl's face. Had he said anything wrong? He recalled nothing. Was she sick? She did not appear so. Probably the shock that she had received as he bumped into her, was the cause, and he berated himself for being so clumsy. That n'ght Oscar took the ten to one shift, Ralph the twelve to three, and Jean the last. Nothing occurred until toward the middle of Ralph's watch, about une-thirty. Jean and he had been silently sitting near a window, eyes and ears sharp and keen. The faint sound of soft, stealthy footsteps came to them. The two watchers stiffened suddenly. Jean whispered hoarsly: D'ye hear that? Sounds as if someone were coming toward the house. The steps are drawing nearer, all right. Jean turned to the open window, and, looking down, saw a huge black so three of us cam 1859 Purple and Gold Waite High School Nineteen-twenty-one bulk creep slowly toward the cottage. At his beckoning gesture, Ralph also came to the Window. The moving mass was gigantic in size, but indistinct as to shape. It was evidently carrying something long and heavy. Closer and closer it drew, with slow and careful steps. Creeping along the side of the cottage, it stopped suddenly beneath the open window. Ralph jerked Jean back quickly, and whis- pered in his ear. 'fThis means business. Wake up Oscar, and tell him to make absolutely no noise. Tell him to lie in bed and pretend to be asleep. You do the same. Watch me, and jump on this fellow when l do. That thing he is carrying is a ladder. ffear that! lies getthig the ladder up. Cluickl lA7ake up that IJutchrnan!H A few healthy shakes soon aroused Oscar, and when told what was taking place, he was all action. He followed Jean's directions, and soon, to all appear- ance, was fast asleep. Jean Hinging himself into bed, was also apparently dead to the world. Ralph, nearest to the window, sprang into his bed, and, with open eyes, watched the square of starlit sky. Slight scratching sounds coming closer and closer to the windoW's edge, were heard. Then against the stars, the out- line of a man's head shaped itself. lt was a huge head, but, when the massive shoulders came into view, the head dwindled greatly in size. Ralph's heart stood still when he saw the huge hulk of a body draw itself into the room. It straight- ened up and towered over the beds like some giant guardian. lt seemed to fill the room completely. A second later, and the rays from a pocket Hashlight Hick- ered over the walls of the room. The light traveled downward to the beds and stopped on the sleeping form of Jean. The huge figure drew near the sleeping boy, and the rays of the light beat full into the lad's composed countenance. lt was an anxious moment, but passed safely. Nothing occurred save a short grunt from the invader. Then on Oscar's face the light flashed its blinding rays. The corner of his mouth twitched-that was all. Ralph's heart seemed to choke him as the fellowgdrew nearhis bed. He felt the heat of the lamp beat in his face. With superhuman effort he kept his face straight. He heard the man's heavy breathing. lnstinctively he felt his heavy body bend closer over the bed. The moment had come. His arms, which, up to this moment. had remained impas- sive on his breast, Hung themselves with lightning rapidity around the giantls neck, and a jerk brought his head and body crashing over the bed: A quick spring, and Ralph was on his back. Oscar and Jean came quickly to the rescue. The big body was quiet for a second, then, with a strength that seemed more than human, the three boys were flung aside as if mere babes. Another spring, and the man would have cleared. the window, had it not been for Oscar, who, though half stunned, retained sufficient presence of mind to grasp an ankle, just as the intruder sprang. With a crash, the body came to the floor. Oscar, with grim determination, held on tightly, and seemed to be gaining the upper hand, when a crash against the wall caused him to lose his grip and sink into a senseless heap upon the Hoor. But this brief respite had enabled Ralph, who, by the aid of the dresser, had clnnbed dazedly to ins feeg to secure the gun, and, as the head and shoulders of the man came into outline against the stars, a shot barked out. followed by a piercing scream, as the escaping invader crashed to the ground. He lay there for a moment, then staggered to his feet, and swaying drunkenly from side to side, he departed the way he had come, leaving a trail of blood. ' All this had transpired in but a minute. But to Ralph, as he sat on his disheveled bed and gazed vacantly into darkness, it seemed like hours. Arising, and undking unsteaddy to the lanq he ht M andilooked around the roonm lt was a sorry sight that met his eyes. Chairs were turned over, broken, bedding strewvn all over the Hoor. CDscar, having regained consciousness sat dazedly on the door, holding his throbbing head. In a far corner lay Jean, white and still. 1863 Purple and Gold VVaite High School Nineteen-twenty-one Blood trickling slowly from a huge swelling on his temple. Ralph, the least in- jured of the three, carried the insensible lad to a bed, arid, procuring a little water, bathed the wound and the boy's face and neck. A faint moan came from his lips, a muscle twitched, eyelids Hickered, and then flew open and jean gazed vacantly at the ceiling. He touched his injured temple, and smiled faintly. f'Something hit me. ls that thing gone? ls this a nightmare? Boy, what a lump! A Some lumpf' assented Ralph. lt's a wonder your alive. You are Oscar were both knocked out. This place looks as if a tornado had hit it. And I feel as if something more than a tornado had hit me. I got a shot at the fellow, though, and hit him, for he fell off the laddf'. Oscar slowly arose and came over to Jean's bed. I wonder what that thing was, he said. He picked us up as if we were pieces of paper. Ralph, as he glanced at his watch, said: Ten minutes ago everything was quiet-now look at us. Yes, look at us. We're fit subjects for a hospitalf, Well, Ralph continued, since sleep is out of the question, l'll turn doc- tor, and patch you fellows up-and myself, too. Going down stairs, he procured some bandages, fresh water and ointnent which he proceeded to apply to the wounds. lt was not long until the welcome sun came up- in the East, and, at first peep of day, the boys were down stairs and outside. There they found a long ladder, evidently used for painting during the daytime, as proven by the many paint spots. Footprints were plainly seen, and huge footprints they were, too, in keeping with the invader's huge bulk of body. On the bushes and grass were seen large splotches of blood. This tell-tale path led in a zig-Zag fashion into the thick underbrush back of the cottage, Where, in the many by-paths that formed a network in the shrubbery, the trail was lost, and the boys returned to the cot- tage, entirely at sea as to the identity of their nocturnal visitor. All that day many conjectures were offered as to his reason for assailing them. Utterly exhausted by the terrific combat of the night before, and weak from sleeplessness, the day was passed in lounging around the cottage, or wandering through the cool, fragrant park. Ralph caught several glimpses of his earth-angel during thegday, and a vague wonderment asserted itself in his mind as to the reason for her apparently great interest in the park, and her frequent glances toward the cottage. She seemed to be very nervous, as if wanting to come and speak to the occupants, but still holding back for some unknown reason. Ra1ph's mind oscillated between her and the strange events that had just occurred. It was with a sigh of yearning love that he thought of her. He admitted, with a little jump of his heart, that he was in love, and would not be satisfied until he had his earth-angel for his wife. That evening he found himself alone, sitting on the rock-lined shore, wrapt in thoughts of her, and thrilled by the beautiful sunset that stretched before him. He wondered who she could be. His mind struggled in search of some reason for her strange actions during the day. Even at the distance that sep- arated them, he saw that her face was covered by the same pallor he had observed the day before. For a brief moment his whole heart and soul yearned to go to her. ln his mind he pictured scenes, built beautiful aircastles-all of which centered around his earth-angel. ln the far west the sun was slowly sinking be- hind a bank of purple clouds. Nervousness and high tension drove him on, and rising, he wandered aimlessly along the path that- skirted the lake. lt led him through uninhabited spots, through little valleys that were even then being dark- 5875 Purple and Gold Waite High School Nineteen-twenty-one ened by the falling shades of night. Still on he wandered, following the twisting, winding lane. The sun, with a last farewell, slipped away to rest. Stars came out as the dome overhead darkened into night. The last faint flush of red had melted in the West, and night reigned supreme. Stirred by a vague, queer feel- ing within him, Ralph kept on his way, impelled by some force beyond his power. He failed to hear the footsteps that silently had been following him. Not until he had been borne to the earth by three burly forms, did he know that he had been followed. Gamely and silently he fought, but it was useless. A filthy, oily rag was thrust into his mouth, a bandage cut off all eyesight, while a strong rope was tightly wound around his body and limbs. Unable to cry out, unable to move or see, the rough rope cutting cruelly into his flesh, he lay there panting, and stoically awaiting whatever was to come. He felt himself rudely picked up and carried down to the water's edge. His assailants hustled him into the bot- tom of a small boat. As he lay there, twisted in such a fashion as wrung a moan of pain from his lips, he listened to the low mutterings of his captors, but was unable to distinguish any of the words spoken. After what seemed to him an interminable time, the small craft grounded on shore and he heard the men get out. He was hauled out of the boat, and carried along the shore. A long tun- nel or cavern was then traversed, the footsteps echoing and reverberating down the long dark corridor. No word was spoken as they proceeded on their way. After a few minutes of walking, a strong, oaken door barred their path. The foremost knocked twice on the panel. The massive barrier slowly swuncf out- ward, and a Hood of light streamed onthe party, which, passing in, laid their vic- tim on the floor of a large, airy and brilliantly lighted room. Along the walls were placed numerous casks of many shapes and sizes. Save for a few stools, that was all the furnishings, besides the brilliant electric spot-light that hung from the ceiling. After depositing their burden on the earthen fior, one, who appeared to be the leader, spoke a few words of command. The next moment Ralph was car- ried to the darkest corner and there placed among the casks that lined the wall. Where'd you get him ? Ralph heard one man say. f'Strollin' along Lovers' Lane. VVe tracked him from the park, and pounced on him near the old valley. He was easy pickinl. Fought like a woman. You sure he's the right chap ?', Sure! Ask the niggerf' And the speaker pointed with a dirty finger to a big towering bulk of a negro, who, strangely enough, had an old dirty rag tied around his face. Where the rag discovered his cheek, blood had soaked through. He was a fiendish looking fellow at best, and was positively hideous when adorned with the flapping piece of dirty cloth. The wound was a fresh one, it could be plainly seen. Turning to the black man, the leader, who was a short, swarthy Italian, and whose name was famous in the annals of crime, asked, Is this the fellow ? ' Yas sah, the giant replied, pain twitching his face as he spoke. Dat am the man, an' he done me dirt. He gi' me this, and he pointed to his wounded face while his small, piggish eyes gleamed wickedly in Ralph,s direction. Well, we've got the right one, then. There's two more, ain't there ? Yas, sah, but they hain't no count. Dis guy,s the big boy. Wonder if the kid knows anything about our trade ?', one man spoke up, and glanced significantly in Ralph's direction. Huhl Don,t know. Better ask him. Take off the rags, Sam. As the rags which were strangling and suffocating Ralph were being loos- ened, a double whistle sounded outside. . ' H185 Purple and Gold Waite High School Nineteen-twenty-one Here contes Kate-she's late, but she's here, and everything is okeh for a big haul tonight, boys.

VVe're goin, to give him the third degreef' As Sam was disengaging the bonds, the gang, which altogether totaled five persons, closed around him, anxious to see the captive who had wounded the negro. Kate hung back, but was able to see the manls face. As the rag around Ralph's face was removed, Sam stepped aside, while Ralph, with eyes unaccus- tomed to the light, blinked sheepishly.

Another night descended upon the lake and Lakeside. Toward noon of the day that had just closed, big, black clouds had been piling up in the far north- west. lt was insufferably hot and sultry. The air was still and dense, and the lake heaved with long grqund swells that prophesied a coming storm. The clouds moving with very great speed, soon hid the sun from view. The wind sharpened rapidly. The lake shook itself and its bosom heaved in anger. Darkness fell early, and the gale increased until it assumed the proportions of a typical north- xvester. dfhe huge vvaves dashed headlong against the shore, and the spray rose in high, smothered sheets, and, carried by the raging wind, spattered against the boys' cottage, which shook as the awful blasts struck it. Wow! This is some change of weather, exclaimed Oscar, as the flimsy building rocked under the assaults of the storm. llave to expect this during CDctoberf' Jean explained. Ralph said but little, and the two lads did not disturb him, but talked be- tween themselves. C907 Purple and Gold - Waite High School Nineteen-twenty-one Ten o'clock came, and the trio departed for bed. Jean took the first watch. In the inn next door, the gang who had established their rendezvoux in the hidden cellar room, were grouped around an empty cask playing cards. The door opening to the cavern had been closed and barred, and the roar of the in- rushing waters filled the room Four o'clock, and not a with a continuous hollow roar. sign of that woman. Where's Kate? Six hours late. Know anything about her, nigger?,' questioned the Italian. No, sah, the negro replied. Hain't seen her since last night.

Aint suspectin, nobody-yet. Yas, sah. But look here what I found behind a barrel, and rising, he produced the rope that had held Ralph in its bondage. By the Lord,', came the exclamation from the foreigner. That,s the rope we used last nightf, f'Yes, sah-and look 'ere, it's been cut with a knifef' An ominous silence ensued, then Sam, springing to his feet, shouted: That woman did it. She's double-crossed us. No not Katef' Yes, Kate. That girl's a stool-pigeon. We're in a trap right now. We'll never get out. She isn't here tonight, because she's getting the cops. A step sounded on the floor above. The trap door opened suddenly, and the four men in the room below, found themselves peering into the barrels of an equal number of guns. Put 'em up, came the gruff command from the darkness above. Hey, nigger, reach for the ceilingfl Resistance was useless. Slowly four pairs of hands arose. Through the door a figure dropped, then another until three stood facing the criminals, cov- ering them with their guns. 'fGet in that corner, the command was barked out, and quickly obeyed. A glance around the room revealed to the raiding officers the many casks and barrels. Quite a thriving trade, whiskey, either. Fred, the Italian winced Pretty clever trick, but thought that we were so busy that you'd take a chance on us eh, Fred? laughed one of the men. Not all and turned white. not so clever that we can't fathom it out. You with whiskey stills, moonshiners and rum runners not paying any attention to you, eh? Pretty slick. Bue we watched you-you're too clever not to bear watching. You know Kate? Oh, donit look so mad, you can't hurt her now. Well, Kate isn't Kate at all. Shes- You'll find out later. Come on, now, up with you. Jean, next door, due to the roar of the storm, heard nothing outside, but his ears caught the sound of pounding on the back door of his own cottage, and he became instantly alert. Ralph, also, heard the knocks, and was immediately up, and seizing the gun, stole softly downstairs, followed by Jean and Oscar. As they neared the kitchen door, the summons became louder and incessant. Ralph flung the door suddenly open, and gazed upon the smiling glowing face of Kate. f'lVIay I come in F she asked, after a short pause. In dumb astonishment the young man stepped aside, and motioned for her 1913 Purple and Gold VVaite High School Nineteen-twenty-one to enter. She came into the room, followed by a tall, muscular man who, by his authontadve niannen appeared to be anne person of consequence You weren't expecting me here, were you? But I came because I want to clear myself. While you have been sleeping, something has occurred that now permits me to confess, and prove my innocence of all wrong doing. First, I want to introduce you to my superior, or, as you would say, my boss-Mr. Wal- ter Edwards, one of Uncle Sam's most faithful and also most noted secret ser- vice ofhcers. And really,', and she laughed away the awkward question, I do not know your name. It is Ralph Langly, was the answer, after a moment's hesitation. Ralph Langly. Is your father Judge Langly, of Toledo ? 'ffie isf' Well, she said, this is news. I know Judge Langly very well. Ralph looked his astonishment. But to go on. My name isn't Kate. It is-Mildred Nelson.

Mildred and Ralph alone remained, Mildred still with downcast eyes, her handkerchief stHl plucked by nervous hngers. Ilalph stepped to the door, and noticed that the clouds were breaking, and through the ragged rifts a few stars were slyly peeping. A few minutes later, Mildred and Ralph were skirting the water's edge, passing through the park-neither speaking, both busy with their own thoughts.

Small is their number, but not so their fame, They have inspired this story I proclaim. Early one September mornin i 1917 g n , any passer-by might have seen a non- d . . . escript crowd of youngsters Wending their way toward Waite High. Some, Judging by the appearance of the lunches, might have mistaken the procession for '1 picnic art b h l 1 p y, ut t e arge number of note books denied that theory. In truth th f ' 3 at was the embryo class of 1921, taking another turn in their educational journey. We were typical Freshmen, true to all the old traditions of innocence and verdancy, eager to explore the mysteries of High School but fearing and dread- 7 ing the consequences. After sitting on the doorstep for Hfteen minutes waiting for the door t H'l s o open, ida Boden and Marion Howland were granted admit- tance, and gazed with wonder down the long corridor But to their dismft . . cy, the janitor informed them that the architects had neglectfully forgotten to pro- vide ' bl l ' a suita e p ace for their roller skates. The crowd collected in Room 178, designated as Freshman Study Room. Here with wide and vague eyes, We listened to Mr. Pollock's oft repeated in- structions as to solving a puzzling class schedule. After Wrestling half the morning with this situation We emer ed from th . . , g e scene of our struggle, only to be confronted with a greater one-that of finding our class rooms. F ' h ' ew t ere were who found the correct room at the first trial. Even Sam Lynn, wearing short trousers, and a green necktie, seated himself C945 igh School Nineteen-twenty-one Purple and Gold Waite High School Nineteen-twenty-one' in a Latin VII. class, positive that it was Physical Geography. ln about a week the general school routine had established itself, and we Freshmen having grown inore sure of ourselves,scan1pered about niore freehz Very soon after the opening of school, the influence of the Great War was made evident. The Freshmen girls, not to be outdone, took up knitting also. lylore than once the silence of the study room was broken by the Hclick, click of knitting needles, as some girl knit a few more stitches on the sly. Painfully the boys entered into cadet life, and although the struggle to dis- tinguish one foot from the other was hard, they kept at it. Both boys and girls conscientiously contributed to the Liberty Bond and Thrift Stamp funds while they counted more than once the 185 stars that hung in the second floor corridor. 'However, the war did not interfere with the presentation of the Belles of Corneville and Trial By Juryfl the cleverness and charm of which was the subject of Freshmen conversation for weeks. About this time some of the more progressive of our members found that by handing in their nanus to a ceruun teachen they could spend one of then study hours in a large, restful room on the second fioor, where more freedom was allowed than in the study room. But this was nothing compared to the anticipation of final examinations, whose very proximity filled us with fear. We struggled through somehow, and afterward we were amply rewarded for our strenuous and nerve-racking labors by learning that we were no longer Freshmen. ' Soon September came again, bringing together a wiser and older assemblage than had left the previous June. They whose minds were still confused by x's and ys and Iaann nouns and verbs had stdl Knstruggle udth planes and parab lelograms and Caesar's wars and bridges. This year of our school life we were under the guidance of Mr. Travis, and found him a pleasant taskmaster, although he insisted that duty come before pleasure. Every month was full of work and play. It was this November that the armistice was signed, bringing a long de- sired peace to the world and an ever welcome holiday to us. However, all things could not go thus fortunately, for a dreadful epidemic of influenza spread over the city, with the result that school was closed. lt is an ill wind that blows nobody some good, quoth Mary Ruth, Hfor now I escape geometry and ancient history exams. Queer as it may seem, there were many of our pxupils who were of the same opinion. Schoollie agahiin hdlswnqfand noshadowsrn Hnalexannnadonstocdoud the year, everyone entered heartdy into the social hfe The Swiss Bell Ringers filled our auditorium with delightful music that niade us forget ah our troubles and the clever htde Japanese fantasy, Princess Kama K,ura, exhibited very well the talent of some of our well known Friend- ship Club girls. Change seemed to be the keynote of this year, for Mr. Gayman, our prin- cipal, left to take a position at the Toledo Scale Company, and Mr. Pollock, who had acted as father to hundreds of Waite Freshmen, was selected to fill the vacancy. YVe have aH,renuuned at VVaMe long enough to aopredate hir Pollock's leadership. Then came the enjoyable entertainments for the heroes of the late war. At an impressive memorial service, trees were planted, one in honor of Waite's sol- dier dead, Cdeorge Fisher and lhfaher Cloorley, and the other for Iaeutenant Roosevelt. Hut'Wempusfughn and behne ww knewfig June had conw and uw wmre ready to start on our third year. 4953 l l i Purple and Gold Waite High School Nineteen-twenty-one At last we were upper classmen, and those who had tormented us when we were Freshmen, were now seated beside us in 126, where Mr. Mathias held sway. The Sophomore stone may be the A'Blarney Stone, but truly the Junior may be called the grindstone. These were the blissful days of Chemistrv or Physics, or both, days when our very lives were in jeopardy, lest Margaret Kins- ley or Arland lnnis attempt some new and more disastrous experiment. January arrived and the class of 1921 made its debut into social activities at the J Hop. lt was indeed the crowning success of our Junior year. ln the spring a Field Day was enjoyed, at whichthe boys displayed some clever ,military training. dfhen the Hflppeal to Claesarf' a rehghous play,svas presented in a very elaborate style. Who does not remember Hoyt Boden as the haughty king of Judea, and our class poet as the little nephew of the Apostle Paul? The com- plete success of this presentation was due to the able work of Mr. Van Duesen, and the loyal support of the four literary societies. But it was not all play for Juniors, for again final examinations were used to deternnnc the survival of the Httest Vacation came and went as vacations do, and the next time we walked up the steps at old Waite, we were Seniors-real Seniors, demigods before whom aH Fredunen bomfin subnusdon. This was a year of social events, studies and books being delegated to back seats. Nevertheless we were sorry to learn that Miss Dunlap had been trans- ferred to Scott, although the celebrated English Vlll. class was assigned to Miss Spayd. Journalism, for members of Retina and Annual Boards, Dramatic ln- terpretation and Music were new features of thekcurriculum. Of course there was the usual American History and Civics classes, in which among many other things, we learned from Mark Shovar, that the battle of Manasses was called Bull Run because the Yankees were the bulls and the Cfonfederates run. But lessons occupied a secondary place in the year's course, we were much more interested in the well presented Frindship Club play, A Southern Cin- dereHaH and in those given by the IDTHUIHQC fart pupds for the beneht of our class. Dances, banquets, and luncheons made their appearance in quick succession. The very successful Four Lit Dance at the beginning of the year, followed by the parties of each of the literary societies had paved the way to the climax of the year, the Senior Prom. This enjoyable function was held at the Wo'nan's Building, cleverly decorated for the occasion. Splendid music and other added features helped fix in our minds the memory of our last class day. Besides this, there was the banquet given in the Refectory, where the evening was spent in feasting, gazing into our future, dancing, and having a general good time. flovvever, none of this seenaed to Hll us so full of pride as that day xvhen we sailed down the Maumee, past the library of Waite High. The boat fairly shone with the vainglorious smiles of the Class of '21, while Waite seemed to take on a greenish hue as the looks of envy spread over the faces looking at us from the windows. For three years we had been in the same position and now that cur chance had come, we were determined to make the most of it, A glimpse of the gay, but tired crowd, as they journeyed home from this gala day, did not leave any doubt in our minds as to whether or not we had carried out our de- termination. After May Days and Field Days and Class Days we were willing to settle 4969 Purple and Gold Waite High School Nineteen-twenty-one down and become serious long enough to enjoy our very interesting Baccalau- reate Sermon, given by Reverend Mahon. ' ' y ' ' ' ' But the best remembered day was that on which We received a roll of parch- ment as a reward for our four years of perseverance and labor. It was with mingled emotions that we received our sheepskins. A certain indefinable sad- ness spread over Hs, while at the same time our hearts were filled with joy at the thought that , part of our work was over, and that before us stretched the World, where, from now on untiltthe decline of life, each one's 'accomplishments would depend on his own efforts. Where those fair suns are set, as set they must, And all these verses shall bellaid in dust. Your Works the world shall consecrate to-fame, And midst the stars inscribe Waite High School's name. Persis Border, '21 C971 Purple and Gold Waite High School Nineteen-twenty-one President? Farewell Mddress Qian ,aa-sea. ffeeeeaffwsaf Fellow Classmates : 5 A When the high heart we magnify, li' 5 1 And the sure vision celebrate, And worship greatness passing by, t Ourselves are great. i So say the Chroniclers in John Drinkwater's play, Abraham Lincoln. How many of us during these first years of life, have learned to magnify the high heart? How many of us hold within our souls a vision that will serve as our guide in the years that are to come? How many of us recognize great- ness in the life about us-in our homes, our schools, our churches, in our national life and in international relations gin history, literature, and art of the past and present, in all life both secular and spiritual? Each of us has been guided by ideals, certain standards of excellence in thoughts, words and deeds. These ideals have affected our studies, our school activities, our home and .our spiritual life. The hope of a noble reward has caused us to study. The spirit of truth and sacrifice has made our school activities a success. Our ideas of duty, love, faith, and justice have infiuenced our home and spiritual life. Yet, perhaps many of us have weakened at times, have put aside our ideals in order to perceive only the small gain of the present, which is easily acquired. Let me refer again to the Chronicler who says: Coveting the little, the instant gain, The brief security, And easy tongued renown, Many will mock the vision that his brain Builds to a far unmeasured monument, And many bid his resolutions down To the wages of content. Let us, though the temptations be great, be guided by our ideals in our efforts to realize our ambition. What is the vision that is carrying you and me onward and upward beyond the little, the instant gain, the brief security to the higher levels-to the crest of the mountain of ambition? Our progress will be determined largely by the character of our experiences during these years of preparation. We are, in reality, pilgrims similar to Christian of Bunyan's Pilgrim's Progress. He passed through the Slough of Despond, over the Hill of Difficulty, through the Valley of Humiliation, through the Wilderness. That he might not follow one of the by-ways leading to destruction, he held his vision constantly before him. He finally reached his goal, Heaven. What could be more modern than the obstacles and rewards of this solitary traveler? Solitariness now as then ir experienced by the one who follows directly a thigh vision. Yet, although the 4987 Purple and Gold Waite High School Nineteen-twenty-one way is not easy, the one who persists and perseveres in his efforts to overcome the obstacles in his path will find a reward even more valuable than the effort put forth. Abraham Lincoln was a man with a vision. His ideals, acquired in a log cabin, were inspired -by his mother. Upon her death -he was very lonely-lonely ,because of his great loss and because no one about him understood his thoughts and ideals. His father took away his books and was not in sympathy with his desire to educate himself. His sister was too young to 'help him. Thus he was alone. Later, when President, his entire Cabinet many times opposed his plans. He was forced often to act by himself. Unfortunate it was that others did not understand him, but, as the Chronicler in Drinkwater's play says: Lonely is the man who understands. Lovely is the vision that leads a man away From the pasture-lands, From the furrows of corn and the brown loads of hay, To the mountain side, To the high places where contemplation brings All his adventurings Among the sowers and the tillers in the wide -- Valleys to one fused experience, That shall control The courses of his soul And give his hand Courage and continencef' 7 Biographers, historians, and statesmen tell us that Lincoln was a great man. Upon what principles do they base their judgment? How can we rec- ognize greatness in the life about us? The Chroniclers tell us that we who worship greatness passing by, Great men are able to distinguish between that which is chaff in life and that which is as wheat. They recognize the things of value and apply them. Our parents and teachers have tried to help us distinguish between that which is worthless and that which is worth while. They have tried to impress us with the idea ever present in Keat's poetry: Beauty is truth, truth beauty. We have gone to school, because our parents showed us it was worth while. We have studied the best in literature because the teachers realized the value of the message contained within the classics. Thus, both at home and in school we have been encouraged to do the things worth while-to see and to be able to recognize greatness in the life about us. Classmates, this is a farewell address in the sense that it marks the close of our activities as students within the walls of Waite High School. We can now look forward to the reunions which we as alumni of the Class of 1921 may have in the refectory-that room which will mean more to us as the years pass by. Each, then, will be anxious to know the progress the other has made toward that vision 'he holds now. In following this vision let us remember the words of the Chroniclers: When the high heart we magnify, And the sure vision celebrate, And worship greatness passing by, Ourselves are great.

Then up she Hew, and as she left, She drove from off the maiden's brow The tiny frown that once was there. Upon her lips a smile shows now.

Of the forty members of the society more than half of this number rep-re- sented Waite on the gridiron, court and track. The class organizations, the Retina and Annual Boards count among the members of their staffs many Quill and Daggers. During the past year the society has realized' more than ever before that intellectual and cultural development are of the paramount importance, and as a consequence music, public speaking, current events in literature, art, and ' ' ors to our programs. But in the strife for development along scholarly lines social activities have not suffered. The Quill and Dagger Dance, the Mock Inauguration and Dance in conjunction with the Pericleans, and the Banquet are the social functions the society has enjoyed. The Quill and Dagger sp-irit is inextinguishable. lt lasts and is carried on. Alumni of this organization are glorifying the name of their society and Old Waite High Schol at Ohio State, Michigan and Dennison. Boni Petcoff, presi- dent of his Freshmen Class, captain of the Freshman Basketball Team, is as- sured a place on States' football team next year. Frank Young, Herbert Colvin and Thurlow Wilder are the Quill and Dagger representation at State, While Charles Traut is at Michigan and Malcoln Mclnnis is at Dennison. Those men left us something to aim at and' it has been our desire to do the same for future members, and we feel sure that they will uphold the standards that have been set. 11481 Purple and Gold Waite High School Nineteen-twenty-one S o L.

At East Side Central School, a small group of girls desiring a closer acquaintance with literature, music, art, and various questions of the day, formed a society under the capable leadership of Miss Grace Gibson. lt was at this time called the Margaret Fuller Society, but a few years later the name was changed to its present name, the Zetalethean Literary Society. Later it was moved to Cen- tral High School and finally to Waite. Since that time the society has improved each year, and this year has made more progress than ever before in maintaining the standard set by the original society. Among our members are the foremost girls of the schoolg members of the Retina and Annual Boards, members of the Girls' Basketball team, officers in other organizations, and of the Senior Class. All these are among our ranks. In addition to the benefits derived from orations, debates, and current events, We have enjoyed many social affairs, such, as, spreads, parties, informal dances, joint meetings with other societies and theater parties. Besides these, the mem- bers and critics enjoy the dance of the four literarv societies, the annual dance and the banquet. The programs during the past year have been very interesting and instructive due to the cooperation of the girls, the program committee, and the critics, to whom We are indebted for their kind advice and willing service. VVithout a doubt the year, 1920-l, has been the most successful in the history of the Zetaletheans. 11521 Purple and Gold Waite High School Ni neteen-twenty-one i W 0 6? ji gf? fwlllw f A W oo 043 i7Z ,- ff ,, , Q V ' fx 2 0 , N. 1 XM, L 5 'XR KK gl N E : I , i f N X X fm K W lx E ll 4,,:A ,f':, f- V 11531 l l Purple and Gold I Waite High School Nineteen-twenty-one C1541 MEMBERS Purple and Gold Waite High School Nineteen-twenty-one Periclean Literary Society Founded l90l COLORS: VVHITE AND GOLD MOTTO: NULLI SECUNDAE OFFICERS HELEN REECE Preszdcnt ................... - -' ...... we ......,-.....-. - - V156-President ........ ...... w Lenser ......,e.., Refordzng St?L'.TFfIlI'j' .E.... --- .......... ------ Corresponding Secrrftrlry ..... ,.... .E.. 1lTFI1.5'lU'l'7' -.,...

The programs were arranged by the censor and have been carried on with great interest on the part of the members. But it is quite evident that the social side of' the Periclean program was la mellieure moitie, so to speak. Theater parties, the joint luncheon with Scott, a meeting entertaining the Scott Peris, the dance, April 20, the annual banquet, the excursion to Sugar Island, and many spreads form the social functions of the Waite Pericleans. With our competent and interprizing President, and the help of our critics, 'we have accomp ' ' , ' ' ' future. The following program was one of the most interesting.

Since its forma-- tion in 1905 at East Central High School, it has always been regarded as a leader' in schood activities. The main purpose of the society is to develop fellowship and leadership in its members. A glance at the class officers, at the Retina and Annual Boards, at' the athletic leaders and at other prominent pupils will reveal the fact that an amazingly large percentage of them are Forum members. Although the Forum has ever been regarded as a society which places great' stress upon its literary work, it has never been left behind in social events. The- Dance given in April was an affair not soon to be forgotten. Joint meetings and inter-society debates have aided in a social as well as a literary way. The Forum also enjoyed the Four Lit Dance which showed an excellent spirit of eo-opera- tion between Waite's literary societies. During the past year our society has accomplished much in a beneficial way. Besides the splendid programs on such subjects as, Burbank, Pershing, Sports, andl present day topics, we have studied the people, customs and products of many distant lands thru our programs, However our own country has not been: neglected and has formed the basis of many interesting topics. One of the things that the Forum has done for Waite was the purchasing of a bust of Abraham Lincoln for the school library. It is hoped that when the- future members of the Forum look at this bust, that they will remember the goodl work accomplished during the sixteen years of the Forum's existence, and will. f1G0l Purple and Gold Waite High School Nineteen-twenty-on W III II K N FRI E ND s nl l l ' X 5 3 X 4 D ' 5 4 we Y, C ,i C IQ n11nmllllllllllmxxxxw ll! 7 , , , ' - V4 Q I- ..... qW1i.mQ'i'i:ilifffg'!ilHf:!ff5 ' ' .flgigj llglgi-.,l!g'-,lf-.l IS X' 'f-fHW9:gg52EIiHg!SIf:g's3E!Hg '-i.i,l!IIu:.lbll ef H611 Purple and Gold Waite High School Nineteen-twenty-one 11625 Purple and Gold Waite High School Nineteen-twenty-one The Friendship Club GFFICERS President ..... ........l..N .....

The unusually large membership during the past year was no doubt the result of the clever membership campaign at the beginning of the year. The Friendship Club now holds a place near the top of Waite's liveliest organizations. The very interesting and instructive programs were changed' somewhat this year. The Bible study, in charge of Miss Paine, was carried on very interest- ingly in story form. The regular Welfare work of previous years was con- tinued vvith beter results than ever before. In addition to this the proceeds of the afternoon performance of the annual play, A Southern Cinderella, were converted into a fund for unemployed girls of the city. The members have also heard many special talks, which were greatly enjoyed. Then too, the social side of the club life was crowded with good times. Numerous clever parties were given, some of which Were, Splash Parties, Roller Skating Parties, a A'Turkey Party and several with the Hi-Y. The annual play was a great success and also the banquet given in May. We have made great advances this year in more ways than one, and we hope that those who take up the work in the future will continue to keep The Waite Friendship Club in the high position it now occupies. 11631 Purple and Gold Waite High School Nineteen-twenty one Nina Barron Josephine Cardot Esther Carstersan Ellen Chetister Gwendolyn Dush Marion Dauer Marcella Echart Constance Epker Ruth Ehlyss Gertrude Epmyer Elsie Forquer Lucille Ford Cecile Huebner Arline Innes Harriet Kellog Mary Kline Harriet Koofer Gertrude Kanney Lois Lark Marie Micksell Florence Morgan Velina McGlove Evangeline Murphy Helen Majeska Elizabeth Nauts Hazel Oberle Helen Pettys Grace Ryan Harriet Sheppler Leona Stoll Hilda Smith Elizabeth Scott Dorothy Walkner Elizabeth Schyn Edyth Wells Naomi Yeslin Cecile Rhodes Alice Schaefer Emma Bruggemier Dorothy Brewster Ruth Allen Hazel Taylor Helen Austin Frances Buerstrom Dorothy Black Helen Bennett Phyllis Brooke Martha Dushane Beatrice Dauer Alice Douglass Marion Ellis Ruth Farmer Marie Harmon Marie 'Hug Doris Hibbs Mary Hammond Florence jackson Friendship Members Marion Reed Anabel Richardson Doris Scharf Burnadette Snyder Verdilla Smith Helen Stvenson Elizabeth Wright Margaret Weitzel Antoinette Zelner Ruby Thompson Hazel Travis Ruth Ahlfois Mae Luetha Marion Carrel Welma Burgess Charlotte Logel Virginia Bote Velma Orweiller Clara Bruggeman Edythe Burnette Thya Brussdicker Kathryn Burnep Esther Bruggemier Anabel Babcock Kathryn Compo Bertha Dennis Phyllis DeVerna Dorothy Krumm Kathryn Killian Luella Lavender Louise Lacheke Helen Mauson Margaret Moon Helen Maur Rosamond Outwater Verna Reed Adelaide Sampson Mabel Strayer Anna St. Clair Helen St. John Beatrice Thayer May Torrence Helen Williams Elizabeth Wolf Alta Wertz Althea Vogt Persis Border Liela Brown Hazel Critzer Audrey Gea Esther Gladeau Isabella Harry Lelah Holden Helen Haley Helen Herbert Dorothy Lee Eulalie Hoffman 41645 Florence Finker Lida Gibbs Louise Goggel Mildred Haley Lucy Hand Dorothea Henderson Clarice Heilman Florence Fisher Marjorie Kirby Bernice Koper Maude Kuebbler Frances Kuhleman Hazel Krieger Evelyn Lynch Ruth Meinhardt June Matthes Eunice Molton Helen Miller Martha McCalla Alice Nauts Mary Ottsen Geraldine Perkins Lasetta Pickard Grace Robins Helen Robinson Kathryn Reed Mae McClure Constance Muntz Margaret Murphy Rae Morse Dorothy Owen Merisha Palmerton- Grace Pluin Charlotte Quill Lorena Rinker Loretta Rinker Helen Reese Helen Roberts Edith Rollo Gladys Rowell Mildred Struck Alice Thompson Jane Wiles Helen Wckenden Ruth Warner Florence Watters' Ruth Lee Margaret Knisely Beatrice Bancroft Hattie Recht Minerva Schroeder- Mildred Krieger Theresa Lemming' Laveda Foster Dorothy Bulman P pl d G ld Waite High Sch 1 Nineteen t ty 1 Z f W A f 'ff . 1 Q , f WZ ,-Qffx mf Z MZ Z X WZ W X X X X X xe LJ x X N N X N 11655 Purple and Gold Waite High School Nineteen-twenty-one' The Hi-Y Club The Hi-Y Club was organized in October, l9l5. At the time of its or- ganization it was known as the Waite High School Boys' Club. In 1918 it changed its name to the VVaite Hi-Y Club, and under this name has gradually grown in membership until it can now proudly boast of about a hundred members. Under the excellent leadership of Mr. Pearson, the Hi-Y Club has passed thru a very succesful year, both from a beneficial as well as a social standpoint. This year our program have been based on one general theme, Choosing Your Life Work, and all the talks and discussions have been formed around this topic. Various phases of this subject have been taken up, such as: The Young Man in Business, in Law, in lndustry, etc. Besides these interesting talks, given by prominent citizens of Toledo, the club under the leadership of Mr. Rupp, M1'. Pearson and Mr. Winchester has had discussional study on many vital subjects. But this was not all, for social times have also held a prominent part in the Hi-Y Clubys activities. The members have enjoyed the social times after the meetings, and the parties given by the Friendship Club in return. The final Social event of the year and probably the most enjoyable was the annual banquet held the later part of lVIay. The past years have indeed bern a success. The aims of the club have at least in part bc en realized, and we liope that those that follow will carry on the good work already started. 0661 Purple and Gold Waite High School Nineteen-twenty-one President ......

The club meeting were held on alternate Fridays in the rSEctive classes. A joint meeting of the three chapters occured monthly at which a literary program followed by some other form of entertainment was enjoyed by the members of the club and their guests, the senior class. The work of the organization of this year was very interesting and We hope will be very beneficial. A book of information was sent to each elementary school in Waite's district. The purpose of this 'book is to interest the pupils graduating from these schools in higher education and to acquaint them with high school life. Co-operation has been the keynote in the work of the English VIII Club. C1681 Turple and Gold Waite High School Nineteen-twenty-one The English VIII Club LYLE GRZGGS ...., ELEANOR BASSETT ..,.

The Faculty advisors are Mr. Stirling, Mr. Dannenfelser and Mr. Klag, to whom we owe a great deal. With the help of the students, the Faculty, and the Board of Education, this society hopes to accomplish a small part of the great possibilities in this line nof work. 11721 Purple and Gold Waite High School Nineteen-twenty-one CHARLES IRVING WINTERS March 22, 1903 - October 25, 1918 Charles was just beginning his second year at Waite, being an honor student of the Freshman Class of the year before. He was a member of theujunior Naval Reserve, members of which took part at his funeral, a white-uniformed boy blowing Taps at his grave. 'Tis true, now is a time when Death stalks far And wide o'er Earth's broad-reaching fields, and war And pestilence E11 our hearts to over- flow With grief for loved ones sharing world-wide woe. Death came near her proud mother of the boy, And near the loving father, who, with 305' Lived with his son a wholeosme life and free 5 Pale, silent Death, shrouded in mys- tery. All we who knew him loved the wil- lingness To serve, the sympathetic cheerfulness Of soul, which oft was hid 'neath careless mien, And so loved him in whom these traits were seen. For us, 'tis sorrow's lesson, so to spend Our days that when our sojoum here shall end We may, like him, be unafraid, and say- Serene, lt's all right, mother, either way.

Q K -W H755 Purple and Gold Waite High School Nineteen-twenty-one Coach Rupp Let us pause momentarily before reading the history of our athletic teams and think of Nelson G. Rupp, our coach-a man that has touched the depth of every boy's heart, whether athlete or student, Nocky, as the fellows called him, possessed a way that would make the worst of students take a brace and pull for the good of things. He never shouted at you for making a mistake but corrected you in a way that no other man knew how. Coach Rupp ex perienced a 'lhardluck Jinx when about live of his varsity men were injured at the very beginning of the season. He never complained of hard luck, but took it like a real man, setting example' for other fellows to follow, Since Coach Rupp has come to Waite there has been a general feeling of getting ahead among the student body. School songs made their appearance, the 'lljurple and Goldl' became a doc trine for all. One of the many useful things Mr. Rupp introduced to our school is the song entitled Waite- Loyaltyng this is the first school song that has become officially attached to the student body, Besides being coach of the foot-ball, basket-ball, and track teams, 'KNocky', was an active mem- ber of the Hi Y and Quill and Dagger Clubs. He would sit in consultation with anyone at any time and discuss problems that are vital to young manhood. We know the students of Waite will miss 'LNocky,' more than we ever realized, but since- he has left us to assume duties in a new field, we wish him all the golden success in the world. The imprint left on the hearts and souls cl the young men who worked under him will be one t1lQat liven age cannot wear away. Once more we say, Good-bye, Good luck, God bless you oe y-U 11767 Purple and Gold Waite High School Nineteen-twenty-one Fred W. Klag, Faculty Manager Athletics and nuances go hand in hand. They are inseparable. With- out the proper financial backing no team, it matters little how line the mater- ial or how good the coach, can succeed. The faculty manager is the man who buys equipment, schedules games and in short, handles the money end of the game. Fred W. Klag is the holder of that responsible position in VVaite High School and it is a tribute to this popular man to say that since he took charge ofthe business affairs of the Waite Athletic Association, the yearly debt has been done away with and the athletic team is now a paying proposition. As popular in the class room as he is on the football field, Freddy is truly the closest link between the faculty and the student body. 11771 Purple and Gold Waite High School Nineteen-twenty-one I: BALL 11785 Purple and Gold Waite High 'School Nineteen-twenty-one Y The Season Waite 9-Alumni 7 V Our opening game was staged in the bowl against the Alumni, Sept. 18 The ex-VVaite squad was Hsorneu team. VVhen they came on the field they looked formidable enough to beat anything. They greatly outweighed our gridders and were the more experienced. Gur men were attacked by buck feverw at the beginning of the game and it was only after the Alumni had rolled up seven points that they woke up. From this point on it was a great battle. VVaite desperately trying to overcome the lead and the Alumni try- ing equally as hard to prevent it. In the last quarter the ball was toted across the goal line and kicked over the bar for seven points and a tie game. The team played well as a whole making remarkably few mistakes and gave promise of a very strong aggregation. Nothing but straight football was used which makes the result of the game the more remarkable. We are certainly going to have a world-beateri' this year. Waite 83-Bellevue 0. Around the school Friday, Sept. 25, it was rumored that Bellevue, our opponent of the morrow, had a better team than popular concensus gave them, so the afternoon of Saturday, Sept. 26,found quite a good-sized crowd 11791 Purple and Gold A Waite High School Nineteen-twenty-one gathered to witness the struggle. When Bellevue lined up against our men on the field it was apparent that we were right in our surmise for the Bellevue team, man for man, was a husky bunch, fully as heavy as our men. The game started at three o'clock, Myers receiving the kick and cleverly dodging his way to their 40. An end run by Domhoff and 10 yards through center by Haynes brought the ball to the 1 yard line. View took it over but Cully missed goal. Schultz kicked off to Wright who was downed in his tracks. The Waite defense was impregnable and Bell punted to Haynes, who dodged his way down the field for our second score. Cully,' kicked goal. Wright agam received the Waite kick-off and made little progress. Bell punted to Farrell who returned 15 yards. On the next play Domhoff made 6 points, Cully,' missed goal. Vic received the kick and lopped off 30 yards. On the next play Haynes, our speed merchant, planted the pigskin between the goal posts. From now on the spectators witnessed many a fine sprint and many touchdowns were made. Bellevue, though an even match in weight, did not have the fight and foot-ball knowledge that the East-Siders had and left Toledo on the short end of a 83-0 score. Waite 42-Tiffin 0 Our third engagement was with Tiffin, a school that usually turns out a good team. Waite needed a battle to put them in shape for the Athens game, so Faculty Manager Klag scheduled this crowd to provide it. Everybody thought that they would provide a sort of light workout for Coach Rupp's crew, preparatory to the coming battle with Athens. Well, to make a long story short, the best our gridders could do in the first and second quarters of play, was to score one touchdown and kick goal. During the intermission Coaches Rupp, Ellis and Sheets literally called the gods down on the heads of the Waite gridders, and the result was that in the second half Tiffin thought that they were experiencing a combination tidal wave and earthquake. VVhen the final whistle blew, the Waite steam roller had rolled over the goal line just six times and five goals had been kicked. This score does not in any way indicate the real class of Tiffin, but rather the fighting spirit of Waite, for the Trolley-Leagues, man for man,were just as heavy as the East- Siders, and in addition had been playing together for three years. It is cer- tain that Tiffin will not soon forget this game. Waite 2-Athens 0 , ' The first real test of the calibre of Waite's foot-ball machine came on the afternoon of Saturday, Oct. 10. Athens High, last year champions of South- ern Ohio, and strong contenders for the state honors this year, brought a formidable aggregation to Toledo. Among the victories they claimed were ones over lVIassilon amd Nlarietta, two of the strongest schoolsin the State. They had not lost a game in two years and did not intend to lose this one. Everything seemed to be in their favor, for they had the same team as last year, the same coach, and in addition hailed from a college town. Benson, our star guard suffered a broken shoulder on Thursday and this lowered our chances greatly. 1 The large crowd that viewed the contest saw one of the hardest fought games that has ever been played in Toledo. Captain Oldfield of Athens won the choice and chose to receive. Schultz kicked to Dow who returned it to Wyaites 40. A series of forward passes and end runs placed the ball on Waite's 3-yard line, but here the Purple and Gold braced and with the cries of the rooters ringing in their ears held Athens for four downs. A wonderful punt by Schultz took away the down-staters only 11801 Purple and Gold Waite High School Nineteen-twenty-one chance of scoring. At this point the team stiffened and the quarter ended with the ball in midfield. During the second quarter all of the play was in Athens territory due to long end runs by Berndt and Haynes, and plunges by Domhoff. The oval was carried to Athens 10-yard line, but the whistle robbed YVaite of its best chance to score. The third quarter found both teams unable to gain and often forced to punt. The loss of Farrell, early in the second quarter seemed a staggering blow, but Dick hflugfor, who took his place, proved the find of the season. Bothiat piloting his crew and running back punts he showed wonderful ability. Athens started the last period with a succession of line plunges. Barrett and Sharpe, both centers, started to swap punches, but Referee'Sperry would not allow this side attraction to interfere with the main show, and banished the two participants from the field. Waite failed to gain on three attemps and Schultz got off a punt that sailed far over the head of the Athenis quarter- back. VVise tried to pick up the ball on the run but fumbled, sending it spinning over the goalg he recovered it but Kinker nailed him for the only score of the game. There was some argument but Referee Sperry ruled it a safety and brought the ball out the 20 yard line. By means of passes the ball was worked down to Waitefs 30. With but a few minutes to play Wise tried to drop kick. lt was blocked but lVise recovered it. Again and again he tried to boot over the bar, while the rooters sat breathless, but all at- temps failed. VVaite, upon getting the ball, kicked far into Athen's terri- tory where the game ended. Waite 3-Lakewood 16 ' On October 23 the Waite squad accompanied by about fifty loyal rooters, journeyed to Cleveland to play the strong Lakewood High team of that city. This game promised to be harder than the Athens affair but most Toledoans expected YVaite to win. Close followers of the team were not so optimistic for Fud Farrell, our star quarter, had his shoulder broken in the Athens game, and Cliff Barrett, our center, was suffering from infections which however, did not keep him from playing. A large crowd viewed the contest which was one of dedication, this being the first game on the new field. Lakewood won the toss and decided to receive. On the first play they pulled off their famous triple pass which resulted in a touchdown. This seemed to take the pep out of our team and before they got it back another touchdown had been scored. Waite now began to fight, and foot by foot worked the ball up to Lakewood's 10 yard lineg here the whistle for the end of the first half robbed us of a certain touchdown for the Forest City defense was crumbling. The third quarter found Lakewood going great guns and the Toledo team just about equalled them. Plunges by Stamman, Domhoff and Kinker, aided by circling runs by Cully, brought the ball to the Cleveland 15 yard line. Klinck was sent in and neatly booted a drop-kick. Early in the fourth quarter Lakewood also received 3 points when Sweeny made a beautiful 30-yard boot. VVaite desperately tried to come from behind but the final period passed too quickly and Lakewood took the contest. One of the features of the game was the exceptional work of Cully,' Berndt, who repeatedly tore through the opposition for big gains, one of them being good for 55 yards. This defeat was a most disastrous one for it descended like a thunderbolt and wiped out our chance for a championship eleven. VVe all felt blue but it's all over now and it is as they say, Tomorrow is another day, and 1921 is another year, so cheer up for they come here next fall. Then we'll show them what we really can do. 11811 Purple and Gold Waite High School Nineteen-twenty-one Waite 1,7-Bryan 18 Bryan was our next opponent. ln former years this team has always given Waite a good fight but never succeeded in beating us. The Bryan squad was composed almost entirely of experienced men, gridders that very nearly equalled Waite in weight and speed, while the VVaiters were for the most part inexperienced. Everybody thought that the game would be inter- esting but nobody thought that Bryan would win. The unexpected happened however and we lost 17-18. The game started promptly at 2 o'clock, Churchman kicking to Mugfor. Schultz punts on the first down and lylyers nails the receiver in his tracks. Bryan is unable to gain and punts. Again Schultz punts on the first down gaining about 15 yards on the exchange. Bryan finds the Vlfaite line a stone wall and punts. Schultz is sent in for Mugfor. Waite started to go and in four plays carried the ball to Bryanls 5-yard line. The ball is fumbled on an attempted cross-buck and Lovejoy picks up the loose oval and races 95 yards for a touchdown that was perhaps the greatest fluke that ever happened in the Bowl. The Purple and Gold gridders were greatly incensed over this little gift and receive the kick-oli' and crash down to Bryanls 21 when the quarter ended. Mugfor is sent in for Schultz. Bryan holds and receives the ball. VVaite holds and gets the ball taking it 30 yards in one play, Berndt being the ball-toter. Mugfor takes it over and Schultz kicks goal. Waite then lines up and by means of end runs and bucks takes the ball to Bryan's 20. A pass, Schultz to Myers, results in a touchdown and Schultz kicks goal.

Saturday morning, Nov. 6 the Waite squad, accompanied by about one hundred rooters went to Detroit to play Northern High of that city. The Eskimoes had a very strong team, meeting Waite with a clean schedule. The held upon which the cont.est was staged was a cross between a southern swamp and a northern dump. Thick muck with now and then a tin 'can showing, and here and there a bit of stick or wire, made up the surface of the playing field. A good-sized crowd was there and witnessed a much closer game than the score would indicate. A, Northern won the toss and chose to kick. Allen lffiked to Stamman on Waite's 23-yard line and he was downed in his tracks. After two attempts .

Waite received and began to play better football, holding Northern in the middle of the field and repeatedly marching far into their territory only to lose the ball on a fumble. When the final whistle blew, the score stood, Waite 0-Northern 27. Waite 0A-Ann Arbor 32. November 13 Ann Arbor came to the Bowl a stronger team by report, than Northern, and as we found out, a stronger team in action. As was the case in almost every game the Purple and Gold gridders were outweighed. In addition to this, more men had been added to our injured' list, or rather cripple army. However, our valient subs went in and fought with all they had, and that was all anyone could ask of them. Waite won the toss and elected to receive the kick. but as two attempts: to gain failed, Schultz was forced to punt. Ann Arbor took the ball down' the field in a steady march, Yutzy doing the major gaining. and brought it up within VVaite's l0-yard line. Schmidt, their 220 pound half, hit the line twice in vain, but on third attempt he was successful. Waite received and by some excellent work made first down twice, but lost the oval on a fumble. Then the famous Crippen, aided by Gregory, their speed merchant, worked the ball down the field and across the last white' marker. They repeated once for each of the remaining three quarters witfr out team bravely fighting. Not only once but many times did Waite march near the Ann Arbor goal only to lose the ball when a few yards would have meant a score. The punch was lacking in the critical moments, but our team seemed to improve as the time passed. Unfortunately, lowering darkness cut off our chances of scoring and the Ann-Arborites departed the victors. Waite O-Ann Arbor' 32. Those who got in the last few minutes did some excellent work. Brendt was the major ground-gainer for Waite until an injured shoulder compelled him to leave the game. 4 C1831 Purple and Gold Waite High School Nineteen-twenty-one Waite - Scott Game. It is Saturday morning. Next Thursday is Thanksgiving and the annual game with Scott. Everybody is full of pep and light scrimmage is under way. Our crippled squad is there too, watching. Suddenly it is noticed that some- one is hurt. Who? Surely not Schultz? Yes, it is Joe. Scarcely a word is said but everybody realizes that this, on top of all our other misfortunes will sadly mar our chances of victory in the coming battle. Monday morning the news spreads about school causing much speculation as to whether or not Schultz will play. No one seems to know. This state of uncertainty lasts all day Monday and Tuesday. Wednesday morning the announcements read Mass meeting after lunch. Shortly after we had en- tered our fifth-hour classes the auditorium signal sounds, we all rush down the hall and into the auditorium. VVe feel full of pep and respond eagerly to the cheer-leaders exhortations. After a rousing Rupp Rah everybody quiets down and a breathless silence ensues. Out from the wings steps Nocky, the coach. Schultz's shoulder is not brokeng it is only bruised, he will play tomorrow. Instantly the tension snaps, pandemonium reignsg we are sat- urated with enthusiasm. Everybody promises to be at the game. Thursday morning dawns warm but grey. This seems an ill omen for rain and mud had spelled our Wiaterloo before. Nevertheless we get up and hustle off to Scott field and join the eight thousand other Toledoans who have assembled to witness this annual classic. After a short time the two teams trot out on the field and run through signals up and down the field. Even to the most prejudiced Scotter it was evident that the East-Siders were greatly outweighed. A whistle thrills. Referee Trautman calls the two Captains, Schultz and Vick, together and a coin spins in the air. Schultz called the toss and chose to receive. After a word from Coaches Rupp and Dwyer the YVaite and Scott grid- ders take their places. The whistle sounds and Vick sends the ball high in the air. Schultz receives and returns the kick at once to Caldwell who is downed on Scottis 40. Vick hits the lfVaite line twice for 6 yards and Flues makes it first down. Vick makes 5 yards but Scott takes too much time talking over the next play and YVaite receives a 2-yard gift. Vick and Flues attempt to pierce the fighting East-Siders' line but no gain is noted. Vick punts to Dow who fumbles, Shuey recovering. Waite tights desperately but the inferior weight and crippled condition of our men cannot stand against the rush of the much heavier Scotters. Vick makes first down on three plunges. Flues makes 9 yards through tackle. The far-famed Vick is nailed for a 5-yard loss on Scott's famous reverse play, but on the next play Flues tears around left end for a touchdown. Vick kicks goal. Scott 7-Waite O. Scott kicks off, Berndt receives but fumbles, Stamman recovering. In vain Cully and Dutch try to go through Scott's two-hundred pound line, so Schultz is forced to punt, Vick receiving and returning 5 yards. Hello, what's the matter? Kreitz, one of Scott's mercenaries ac- quired from Detroit, seems to be in distress. The Star Spangled Banner is flying inverted from his crosstrees and he has a decided list to starboard. DocU Berlin, Scott trainer, rushed out on the field accompanied by Ted Keller, the unexcelled side-line coach, and little Fritz is induced to come in drydock. Stahl takes his place. Play is-resumed and Vick is stopped in his tracks. Flues circles left end for 20 yards. Waite stiffens and holds. Cully lopps off a yard. Stamman gains one on a fake kick. Cully heaves ra pass to Haynes who dropped it. Schultz punts to Caldwell who is downed Qin midfield where the quarter ends. The second quarter began with the Purple and Gold eleven fighting hard. Vick is stopped in his tracks. Scott is offside, 5 yards penalty. A forward pass C1847 , Purple and Gold Waite High School Nineteen-twenty-one fails. Vick makes 9 yards but Waite receives the ball on downs. After two ineffectual attempts to gain, Schultz boots down the field. Vick and Flues cannot gain. Cilff Barrett being the big reason, he being in every play. Waite's ball. Cliff makes his only bad pass of the game and Schultz is nailed for a 10-yard loss. Joe punts to Caldwell who returns 20 yards behind splendid interference. Flues dashes through right tackle for six points and Vick boots across the crossbar. Scott 14-Waite 0. Captain Faber of Scott is sent in for Clash. What a big fellow he is! Waite kicks off. Scott marches the ball to midfield, a whistle trills, the half is ended. During intermission it is discovered that Schultz's shoulder is in such bad shape that he cannot continue, so Steinecker takes his place. Cully kicks off to Vick who returns 10 yards. After three unsuccessful attempts to gain, Shuey, the grand kewpie, heaves- the oval fa-r over Vick's head and a 10-yard loss ensues. Waiteis ball. Here occurred the brilliant play of the game. Cully calls for a pass but Scott covers up all eligible receivers. He whirls in his tracks, dodges Luke,' Hunt, and speeds up the field toward the goal. Will he make it? Everybody is on their feet, wildly excited, but the slipperiness of the field keeps him from dodging and he is nailed just 15 yards from the goal. Had the field been dry he undoubtedly would have made a touchdown. Scott stiffens. VVaite fails to gain and Scott receiving the ball, punts out of danger. Cully tries a pass but is downed for a l0-yard loss. A pass, Cully to Kinker, is good for 10 yards. Haynes punts to Scottis 20. Vick punts immediately and big hfeyers, one of Scott's 200-pound linemen recovers after Dow and Berndt collide trying to catch the punt. ln two plays Vick crossed the last White marker and then kicks goal. Scott 21. Waite 0. Berndt kicks off to Vick who comes back 20 yards before being molested. Vick and Flues make another march down the field and seven points are counted. Scott 28. Waite 0. Scott kicks off to Dow who re- turns 10 yards. An attempt to pierce the line fails and the quarter ends. The fourth quarter starts with Haynes punting to Flues who returns 30 yards. VVaite is fighting hard, Cliff Barrett being the outstanding figure with Pauley a close second. But as Scott outweighed our team forty pounds to the man and in addition were an experienced team, it it easy to see why Purple and Gold is loosing. Vick and Flues, by means of off-tackle bucks, annex another touchdown. Scott 35.-Waite 0. - VVaite kicks and Scott works the ball into Waite territory. An in- completed pass over the goal linegives the ball to Waite on the 20-yard line. A pass, Cully to Kinker, gains 12 yards. Another pass is tried but Shuey intercepts it. Scott tries the passing game but this is a department the YVest-Siders cannot gain in. Dutch intercepts one and Haynes punts out of danger. Edwards, the champion battler of Scott Hi, tries to put one over on Buddy Kinker,but this little man comes right back and musses up the Scotter. Referee Trautman seemed interested in the affair, but as the rule book states that fisticuffs are neither part not parcel of football, he called a halt to proceedings and banished the participants from the field. This interesting little engagement was not provided for in the program but the spectators appreciated highly the efforts of the boys to create a diversion. Incidently Trautman did not state who was the winner but we know. You bet. Scott fails to gain, pass and plunge netting no advance. The other two mercenaries, York and Scheible, are sent in but even these great men cannot gain. What,s that noise? The whistle. The game is overf' Although we all were downhearted over the outcome of the game, the rooters never gave up and as they filed out of the gate they astonished every- body by singing Loyal, loyal to old Waite Hif' Spirit like that is the thing that is most desired and is the thing that will put us on the other end of the score next year. 41851 ' Purple and Gold Waite High School Nineteen-twenty-one Schultz Captain Joe, our captain, and one of the few veterans on the team proved an able leader, though handicapped by injuries a large part of the season. Even when the odds were overwhelm- ing, he neither faltered nor lost hope, but fought with a spirit that was an example to the rest of the team. Early in the season he was shifted from full-back to tackle Where he played a fine game, taking care of his man at all times. Joe has an educated toe, his punts having distance and unerring placement. This Worthy Warrior will be with us again next year, and if he lives up to our expectations, he will undoubtedly be one of the best high school Clifford Barrett Alternate Captain and Center CliH'7 was a veteran and one of the main- stays ofthe team. His level head and accurate passes 'made possible many a gain, while his fighting spirit and deadly tackling made the center ofthe line a place Cto be avoidedj by the enemy. '4Clilif will leave old Vllaite and foot- ball this June for the bigger game of Life, and We all Wish him as much success in the future as he has had in the past on the gridiron at Wiaite. 11861 tackles in the middle West. Purple and Gold Waite High School Nineteen twenty one Howard Farrel Captain Elect and Quarterback l ud,' was the smallest of lfvaite gridders, that is in size, in spirit and pep he was second to none. His generalship was marvelous, and up to the time of his injury, he was good for at least ten yards on a quarter-back sneak. lVhen this little giant was out of the game, the team seemed to be lost. However, he will be back next fall as captain of our gridders, and with him in that role, victory will be certain. c'Jerry. 11.871 Gerald Pelton Jerry is the kind of lineman a team must have. Full of light and foot ball knowledge he proved a valuable co in the VVa1te machine He could pierce any line that he met and was a 'lbearn on opening up holes This stalvs art gridder missed but one game for injuries our pet jinx, bothered him but little erry will l be back next fall to don the moleskins and 1t N ought to prove his best year Good luck, Purple and Gold Waite High School Nineteen-twenty-one Carl Benson Guard '4SWede was our steadiest lineman, and one of the flrst to be caught by the jinx. He was going strong when his shoulder was broken in practice, just before the Athens game. Carl is not a spectacular player but his opponent was never known to break up a lVaite formation. His coolness, coupled with his bull-dog deter- mination made him a valuable man on Coach Rupp's machine. Unfortunately, graduation robs him of his chance to play for Wlaite next fall but we all have to leave sometime. So long, Carl. Lester Brenot Center Les was a new man who showedjwhat he could do when given a chance. A guard by choice, he volunteered to take center when Barrett Was injured and promptly made good. Les,' is one of those modest, friendly fellows that believe in doing rather than saying, and could, be counted upon to do his part thorough- ly in every play. VVe hope to see him back next fall, for his experience this year should make him one of the mainstays of our 1921 team. 11881 Purple and Gold Waite High School Nineteen-twenty-one Carl Burndt Half-back. Cully7' was our best ground gainer. He could circle the ends at breakneck speed, pick a hole or heave a pass with equal facility. His stocky build rendered him practically immune to injuries, so he was bothered but little in this respect. VVhen shifted from half to quarter near the close of the season to fill a gap made by our jinx, he showed a level head and invari- ably selected the right play for the moment. This is Cully,s Hrst year on the varsity, and as he has yet several years to attend school he should be a real foot-ball star before he grad- uates. Milton Carr Guard Brick came from hlonroe where he had Won fame as a gridiron performer, to play for the best high school in the United States. His position was guard but in a game he was al- ways found near the ball. This husky redhead was full of fight and could be depended upon to do his part every time. Unfortunately for us, the roll with the ribbon makes it impossible for Brick to come back next fall, so the best We can do is Wish him the best of luck in the future. So long, Brick, f189l Purple and Gold Waite High School Nineteen-twenty-one Merrill Haynes Half-bac k Merrill was the fastest man on the squad. Besides speed, he possessed a wicked stiff arm and the ability to punt forty-five yards con- sistently. As a ground gainer he had few peers, for no end could turn him, nor could any de- fensive half catch him. Haynes will be back next year to fill a Waite uniform, for this is his iirst year on the grid. Champions next fall, Merrill. Victor Domhoff Full-back. Vic was another of the jinx victims. He was going strong until the middle of the season when an infected leg put him in the hospital for three Weeks, and on crutches for the rest of the fall. View could spin through the line, run the ends and stick to passes. In fact, he was so consistent a performer that many per- sons believe that had he been in line-up all season, the outcome of many of the games would have been different. However, this val- uable man will be back with us next year to help to put VVaite on the foot-ball map. The old zip, Vie 11905 Purple and Gold Waite High School Nineteen-twenty-one Richard Mugfor Quarter-back. Dick is the little barrel-chested fellow who barked signals. His speciality was returning punts. This he could do to perfection and many a yard did he reel off in this fashion. Dick', was a hard worker and showed the stuff that was in him by making the team the first year out. The experience he gained this fall will no doubt be of great value next fall both to him and the school. 0915 ,,,..s mi...-.-, eww.. . 1 l 4 i , ,Me mv., --,, l Frank Pauley Guard Frank, the tallest and heaviest man on the team, was without previous varsity experience Wfhen Benson was injured in the early part of the season, Frank was put in his place and proved himself worthy of the honor. He is a man of tremendous strength and we have yet to see the line that he could not pierce. H handled his man at all times and was a tower of strength on the forward wall. With this year's experience Frank should be one of the best guards in the state next fall. Purple and Gold Waite High School Nineteen-twenty-one Carl Kinker f'l5ud', was a fighting fool, always charging in and nailing anyone who attempted to circle his end. He was a good man for defense for he could not only catch any pass that came his Way but in an emergency he could also be called back to pass or plunge. ln all respects he is a good man. and will no doubt be a member of Clarence Myers li n d. Nlyers was a light man who held down the difficult job of end in a very capable fashion. He could break up end runs, hurry up punts, and last but certainly not least, catch passes. His uncanny ability to grab the oval out of the air, coupled with his Cshoe-stringj, tackles made him a regular. Myers says that he will be back next year to play end on the best team that ever represented VVaite. Atta boy. the squad next fall. As this is Bud's flrst - year on the varsity, great things are expected -1 V - of this versatile man before he leaves us. 41921 ' Purple and Gold Waite High School Nineteen twenty one Karl Stamman ruiisack Dutch was a smashing plunger and a speed merchant on end runs although this was his first year on the gridiron. VVhen this husky young roughneck hit the line, the opposition thought that they were trying to stop a steam engine, while many an end has stretched his length on the hard ground in a vain effort to nail him. He was also a tough one on the de- fense, breaking up and intercepting passes. 4'Dutch will bring his books back next fall and incidently, his uniform. Next year should prove a wonder year for him. Earl Klmck Half-back Red,' came out at the beginning of the season determined to make the varsity. He plugged away steadily until at last he got his chance and made good. Although this was his first year, he showed up well on both the de- fensive and offensive, being in every play. His position was end but numerous injuries to back-fielders caused Nocl:y', Rupp to shift him to the back--field where he proved his worth. He was good at a plunge, end run, and drop-kick, this last being a valuable asset to any team. Red,, was a January grad and is greatly missed, for his spirit and fighting have made him many friends. H931 K X Purple and Gold Waite High School Nineteen-twenty-one Irving Steinecker Center Irv', was a man who could be sent in at any time to play any position on the forward Wall. He fought every minute he was in there, but his lack of Weight and experience kept him from a regular position. Next fall Irv Will be back after a regular berth and With this year,s experience behind him, he ought to land II. William Alexander Half-back Bill was another green man who did his bit for the Purple and Gold. This young rnan played tackle and half with equal facility. Although he sat on the bench the first half of the season it did not dishearten him and he kept on lighting. Finally he got his chance and made good. Next year 4'Bill', will doubt- less be a regular. 11941 Purple and Gold Waite High School Nineteen twenty one Walter Dow Half-back. Dow is 'the little half that by pure plugging worked his Way up from the third team to the varsity. Plunging was his strong pointg he could go through the biggest line like a shot out of a gun. Dow did not get in until the last ofthe season, but this is his first year so We may expect more of him in the future. Edward Carsten L .Guard Cars,' was a scrapper and although light and inexperienced, played an excellent guard. He could Worm his Way through a brick Wall, and was a terror on blocking punts. He is com- ing back next fall and we hope to see him make the varsity as he has the right stuff in him. 11955 Purple and Gold Waite High School Nineteen-twenty-one I Kenneth Ward E n d Hlienny' fought every minute to get in there as he often did and played a great end. His lack of vveight'and experience was more than balanced by his speed and fight. This young f man could be sent in at any time and be count- ed on to do his best. Kenny Will not be back next year as the graduation list bears his his name, but we all wish him success in What- ever he undertakes in the future. Bernard Stiffney E nd Still was another man whom the gods of the gridiron designated to be held in reserve- He could play either tackle or end, but it Was at end that he showed up best being fast, alert, and a sure tackler. This was his first year on the grid but judging from his playing one would think him a veteran. 'LSrifF' will also return to school next fall. 11961 Purple and Gold WaiteiHigh School Nmeteen twenty one Stuart Campbell S tudent Foo t-ball Mgr. In addition to a coach and a faculty manager, a foot-ball team must have a student manager, one who can act as a connecting link between the faculty and the players. He must be able and willing to work hard and put in long hours or the team will suffer. He is responsible for the playing field, takes care of the equipment and in general is assistant to the faculty man- ager and the coach. Stuart Campbell, better known to those around school as Stew, was selected for this work and proved himself in every way an efficient worker and has won the appreciation of everyone who was associated with him. l l l workers. C1971 2 Caesar Auerbach 2 Student Basket ball Wlgr l The job of looking after the needs of the basket-ball team was given to Caesar Auer bach, our hard working assistant foot ball manager.

Waite 'High.School - Nineteen-twenty-ont The Season The out-look for the 1920-21 No. 9 basket-ball season was truly a bright one. lVIost of the last year's Squad returned to school and the raw material was fine, as evinced by the showing of the various class teams in the inter- class tournament held just before Christmas. The tournament pennant was taken by the Sophomores with the Juniors second. , Our opening game on January 21 was with Bluffton, a team that plays. a very good brand of basket-ball. Their guards were tall and husky, their center taller, and there was a couple of streaks of lightning where forwards- usually are. The Waite five had never played together before and little was known of the strength. Consequently the crowd was a bit dubious as to the outcome of the struggle. The Bluffton center got the first tip-off and all others, after making it doubly hard for the Purple and Gold to get the ball. Nothing daunted, the Waiters started with a rush and soon had Bluffton on the short end of the score. Our visitors then seemed inclined to rough it upv and our men werenlt a bit bashful in doing their part after it was started. Bluffton got the worst of it both on the score and the rough-stuff. lt is a cinch that this team will never again try to put anything over on a Waite team in the future. Goldstein was the hero ofthe affair with five baskets to his credit. Stamman couldn't get the jump but he played rings around his opponent, tossing in three fielders. Carson accounted for two while Berndt made one from the field and one from the foul line. Carr played a good defensive game and smashed up many a Bluffton play. Score VVaite 23-Bluffton 14. Saturday evening, January 29 the Waite gym was the scene of a stirring battle. The Alumni, composed of such stars as Phil,' Clemmons, Cy Foster, and :'Emmy Sheets was forced to take a 32-29 beating. Our men weren't supposed to know any remarkable basketball or to do any more than to fight gamely, but to the surprise and joy of the spectators Waite started in right at the tip-off and played such good basketball that it the end of the Hrst half, the score stood 23-14 in our favor. In the second half, however, the Alumni, by means of clever passing and phenomonal shooting, gradually crept up on the Purple and Gold quintet and tied the score at 29 all, with but two minutes to play. Immediately after the next tip-off Referee Fox caught Clemens holding and Goldstein tossed the leather' sphere through the hoop and put us in the lead. just to make the margin- safer Du1ch', Stamman dropped in a neat short shot just before the whistle' blew. Everybody was excited and elated for it looked like we had the mater- ial for a good team, something that has been woefully lacking these last few years. This game also terminated Nocky,' Rupp's athletic activities at Waite, his resignation taking place at that time. The student body was sorry to see him go, as his upright, clean character, his loyalty to Waite and? his devotion to duty made him loved by all who associated with him. Friday morning, February S, the team took the 9:05 train out of the T. 81 O. C. depot. It slowed up at the East Broadway crossing and Auer- bach got off to survey the scenery. The train started without warning and Caesar was forced to equal the world's record for the one hundred yard dash to catch the train. At Bucyrus the party had a two-hour Wait, then spent two hours more on the dirtiest, roughest railroad in the United States. Finally it was over and they arrived at Granville where they were met by several Waite grads. The players were assigned to frat houses where supper was served. C1991 Purple and Goldi D Waite High School Nineteen-twenty-one The contest started at seven o'clock, Waite putting up a poor game. According to Denison students Doane had never played so good a game, anyway they performed like wonders, making fourteen of their points by over-the-head and one-handed shots. Waite fought hard but the score at the end of the first half was 19-l0,favor of.Doane. In the second half Waite couldn't find the hoop, while Hla, the Burmese Baby, made 'em from all angles. The final score was 33-12. Waite's fight was there as Nocky Rupp, out popular coach had resigned and we hadn't yet had time to get aquainted with our new coach, Punk Packer. After the game the bunch the bunch was royally entertained by the Denison students. The morning after the Doane game the team went to Newark by bus and took the train to Cambridge. Goldstein and Oten found two young ladies from Ohio State on the train and enjoyed their company until Cam- bridge was reached at 3:30. The party proceeded to the Hotel Berwick and stayed there until time for the game. Cambridge gym is smaller than ours, the ceiling not so high and the playing surface was smaller. A large crowd viewed the contest. The game was very fast and exceptionally clean. Both teams fought hard but Cambridgeis seniors were too experienced for the Purple and Gold and had run up nineteen points to VVaite's eleven in the first half. The second half VVaite played a better brand of ball but when the final Whistle blew the contest was theirs. Score 33-19. Once again Scott handed us the diminuative end of the score but they did not have as easy a time doing it as they had anticipated. The crowd was a disappointment, that is, in size. In cheering, they proved a revelation. Waite out-rooted Scott as usual, but where they got their practice no one knows, for they hadn't had a mass-meeting since Thanksgiving. Both teams put up a good defensive game, long shots being the counters. It took eight minutes for Scott to score , Dutch', Vick dropping the ball through the hoop. Goldstein and Carson contributed then, Pencheff took Carson's place. The first half ended with Waite in the rear. Monetta and Packer used the inter- mission to good effect for Waite put up a much better game in the second half. Mac lVIcLean was playing a whale of a game, and Domhoff took Stamm- anls place and Carson Went in for Goldstein. Staley and McLeanalmost came to blows but Referee Crouse prevented any entertainment along this line. Scott beat us fairly and squarely but we meet again and in our gym. We hope to turn the tables. Friday, February 18, the team went to Dayton to play Stivers. They put up at the Hotel Gibbon and rested there until game-time. The Y. M. C. A. was 'used as a dressing room and they taxied to the Memorial Hall where the game was played. Stivers jumped into the lead right away and by the time the first half was over had annexed a 50-10 lead. The second half saw an entirely different brand of basket-ball. VVaite got started and made seventeen points to Stiver's eighteen. However, Stivers copped the game, 68-27. McLean and Carson with three buckets apiece were the heroes of the affair. On the morning following the Stivers game the team took the interurban for Troy where they met the high-school of that place. At seven-thirty the game started and lo, the East-Siders made their opponents look like fish and annexed the contest, 19-14. McLean and Goldstein looped two while Stam- man, Carson and Berndt got one. Domhoff put up a good floor game. February 28, Waite went to Youngstown to meet Rayen Hi. The con- test was staged in Rayen gym before a large crowd who expected to see Waite walked on. Imagine their surprise when the Toledonas jumped into the lead and held it all during the first half. Score Wvaite 12-Rayen 10. A, 12001 Purple and Gold Waite High School' Nineteen-twenty-one Rayen came back in the second half and heaved long ones through. Jones and Butler being responsible. The Waite defense deserves a word of praise for Rayen did not make a single short shot. Goldstein and Mclsean with three fielders and Stamman with two were the shining lights for Waite. Score Rayen 31-Waite 18. Leaving Youngstown the next morning the party went to Cleveland where they met Lakewood. The Forest City quintet was disposed to think that YVaite would treat them roughly so they had three officials. Wvaite took the lead and were leading 13 to 11 at the end of the first half. McNines had four personals called on him and Siewert took his place. During the course of the game twenty-four fouls were called on the Waiters and ten on Lakewood. Berndt made eight out of ten while Grossman only made ten outof twenty four. McLean caged four and Goldstein two. lyiarch 7, Kenton Hi came here and met Waite in the Waite Gym. The down-staters had a big, fast team with good reputation but they couldn't keepthe pace set by the speeding East-Siders and after twenty minutes of play the score stood heavy in Wiaiteis favor. In the second half Kenton showed some of their vaunted form, but save for an instant when they were but three points behind, they did not greatly bother us and we annexed the game. Score Wiaite 34-Kenton 21. The Friday following the Kenton affair saw Catholic Central ready to do battle in our gym. Central presented a classy team and put up a great battle, especially in the first half when Waite led but by one point, 18-17. The second period saw Waite going great guns and they counted nine points before you could say Jack Robinson and eventually took the contest, 33-22. 1Nf1arch 18, Archbold, down-state champs, came to whip us. They had a fast squad but they didn't have any McLeans or Berndts in their line-up and bit the dusti' as did Goliath. Whipple of the visitors shot live fielders and was their best man. McLean, our lanky center, looped five, Berndt four, Goldstein four, Stamman three, while Schultz counted two and Carson three. SOcre 42-17. Two weeks later we bowed down to Scott in our gym. We had hoped to win and up to the middle of the second half it looked as if we could, for we completely out-passed Scott. Our inability to find the basket sadly marred our chances and although McLean, Schultz and Berndt repeatedly took the ball up the Hoor, no gain was recorded and Scott took home the bacon to the tune of a 30 to 9 score. The Reserve Squad. , The Reserve Squad composed of Roy and Ray Herman, Simons, Cooper, Mulinix and Ray Domholi is the bunch that deserves much credit. Every night they got the hard work conditioning the varsity and none of the glory that usually goes with a basket-ball team of this caliber. Their season may be called successful for they beat St. 1VIark,s Church, Lakeside High, Central Reserves and Archbold Reserves. They lost but one game and that to the Scott Reserves in a close, hard-fought game. The Reserves are all loyal Waiters. C201 J Purple 'iand P-Gold Waite .High School ' - Nineteen-tiwenty-one lo if Edward Packer Coach. Punk Packer, former Wlaite basket-ball star and more recently of Denison, was se- cured to coach the Waite basket-ball squad to fill the vacancy left by the resignation of Nocky Rupp. His unflagging efforts to pro- duce a Winning team have won the admiration of the Whole student body. Although inex- perienced at the coaching game his basket-ball knowledge enabled him to put out the best team that We have had in three years. He and Sam Nlonetta, our advisory coach, Work- ing together, formed an admirable tutoring system and one that surpasses any that We have had for some time. Sam Monetta V Advisory Coach. Vlihen the Vvaite Athl t' A ' ' e ic ssoclation secured Packer as coach they also obtained the services of Sam Nlonetta, former Old Central athlete, as advisory coach. Sam was a VVaite basket- ball rut - th ' ' or ree years ago and IS well known in Toledo athletic circles. His cool head, coupled vvith his scathing criticism, has turned th e tide of many a doubtful battle in our favor . . n , 7 while his sound advlce has been the basis of many an improvement in the performance of the team. Sam is in a large part responsible or the impiox ement in basket-ball at Waite. 12021 PWPIG and -Gold-f 'Waite':HighfSchnol Nineteen twenty one Carl Berndt Captain. Cully,,' our captain and speedy running guard, was aneexcellent floor man as well as a sure shot. He also tossed free throws and many a point did he add in this fashion. He fought hard every minute and by his example inspired the rest of the team to give' the best that was in them. This husky young man will be back next year and will no doubt be heard of again in athletic circles at Waite. Abe Goldsteln Abe is a scrappy basketeer. Although small er than most of his opponents, his tenacity and ability to follow the ball enabled him to take the ball away from much larger men with apparent ease, while his speedy floor work and accurate eye allowed him to team the ball down the floor to many an easy shot. Abe will never again don a VVaite uniform as graduation calls him from us, but the example he has set by his hard work will not soon be forgotten. 12033 Purple and Gold Waite High School Nineteen-twenty-one Carl Stamann Dutch', was a hard Worker. From the min- ute of the first tip-off to the blast of the linal Whistle, this able Hoor man was in there lighting every minute. Not only is he fast but he has also sound judgment and scarcely ever made a bad pass. His basket shooting was rarely of the spectacular type but he looped them often. Dutch,' will also be in school next year, l l l 1 Harold McLean Nlac,,' our lanky center, was our chief point getter. He seldom missed a shot short and occasionally slipped a long one through just to show that he could do it. His passing and floor work were surpassed only by his abili- ty to score. Mac did not enter school until January but his ability was soon recognized and Won him a place on the Varsity. With him in the pivot position the team improved greatly. Nluch credit is due him. lVIac,' is coming back next year. 12041 Purple and Gold Waite High School Nineteen twenty one Joseph Schultz Joe is a new man on the VVaite basket-ball squad alH1ough well known in other branches of athletics. He could play either forward or center, but it was at forward that he played his best game. His ability to handle and pass the ball, coupled with his shooting, made him a dangerous man at all times. Joe will be with us next season. John Mclnnis Red', was our dependable standing guard. Always fighting, he proved himself a hard man to get by, and an able guardian of the basket. He did not make many points for he did not have many chances, but his a bility to break up plays and get the ball off the back-board won for him a position on the varsity. This was his first year on the Hoof so we expect to see him in uniform next year. 12051 Purple and Gold A Waite High School Nineteen-twenty-one Howard Carson V Bud has the makings ofra basket-ball play- er. He can pass cleverly, is a sure shot and knows the game. When he gains in Weight and experience he W-ill undoubtedly rank with the best of themj Bud', will be out again next year. Irvin Siewert Irv', was our utility guard. He fought hard while he was in there and la ed a ood Game l P Y 3 Q for one handicapped by the green mlsts of the upper floor. Irv will also return next fall. 12061 Purple and Gold Waite High School Nineteen-twenty-one Girlt Gym The girls' gym work has certainly gone forward with leaps and bounds and this year probably more so than ever before. This is due perhaps, in a great measure, to the untiring efforts and the able leadership of our instruct- ors, lVliss Armbruster, Nfiss Lecklider and hliss Brobst. The girls on their part wisely took advantage of this instruction and did splendid Work during the past year. lVednesdays and Fridays are undisputably girls days in the gym. On each of these days the Freshmen and Sophomores devote one school period to gym work. Every lVednesday afternoon the Advanced Class meets and, though really intended for Junior and Senior girls, only, some of the wiser youngsters have taken advantage of this privilege. Dancing, marching, games, drills, etc. make up a period's work in the gym. After school every Friday the gym is open to all girls for dancing. This lasts for about a half an hour. Afterwards the team Cduring the basket-ball seasonj has its Weekly Work-out. After the basket-ball season is over the Advanced Class meets both Wednesday and Friday afternoons., The ability of the girls and the results of hard work and careful training were certainly very clearly demonstrated in the annual Gymnasium Exhibi- tion. This event took place on Wednesday evening, Nlay 4th. The Indian Club Drill, the marching and clever dances of the Advanced Class were marked numbers, while the more simple dances and drills of the regular classes com- pleted the excellent program. One had only to Witness this sight in order to be convinced of the beneht and personal satisfaction which may be derived from such a course. The hlay Day exercises, which were held at both Scott and WVaite, were also big events of '2l. 12075 Purple and Gold Waite High School Nineteen-twenty-one Helen W1ll1ams Esther Fritz Esther Fritz, our captain, proved to be a very successful leader. She was the chief point getter this year and well deserves the title of a sure shot. She had plenty of pep and laways played till the end. l ritzi'7 was easily the star on the scoring end of the team. Helen Williams was a new man at the forward position but she showed a world of talent. Helen played a line floor gamg and is rapidly developing into an accurate shot. She will, with this yearis experience, be valuable mater- ial for 1922. C2085 Purple and Gold Waite High School Helen Bennett Helen Bennett, our clever center, was sel- dom out-jumped. As manager of the team she performed her duties in her usual efficient manner. Bennie,s', good sportsmanship made her a great favorite with the team. Helen, We are glad to say, will still be haunting the gym next year. Nineteen-twenty-one i 1 I 1 4 E I Jane Wiles Jane lViles, our side center, has nlled her position remarkably well for three years. Jane is very speedy and alert, two essentials that label her a good player. Regardless of her small stature she manages to get the ball with as much ease as her tall co-partner. Jane will be lost through graduation. . 12091 Purple and Gold Waite High School Nineteen-twenty-one A Grace Plain Grace Plain was our stone Wall when it came to defense. Her wonderful ability at guarding made the success of the team a com- mon occurence. Graceys ability to stick and her record as a clean player made her a popu- lar man with the team. Unfortunately, she will be lost through graduation. Anne St. Clair Anne St. Clair was one of the finds of the season. This was her first year on the Vllaite varsity and we will be glad to look forward to her next year. Her unfailing sense of humor made her invaluable to the team. Herels Wish- ing you a World of success for next year. f2l0J Purple and Gold Waite High School Nineteen-twenty-one Girl's Season in Basket Ball The team made a very late start this year and for that reason played only live games during the entire season. Due to the first-class coaching and also to the hard work of the girls the success of the team was a common thing. Their fine pass-work was very evident in all games and this, coupled with our two forwards' ability at putting them in, produced a first-class team. Waite has every reason to be proud of its girls' team and this years' sextette has lived up to the usual Waite standard. Miss Lecklider, our coach, deserves a great deal of the credit. She did her utmost to teach the team the way to play a winning game. 'The fine points as well as the general rules were Worked out in her usual systematic way. Miss Brobst also did a great deal toward instilling a spirit of fair play in the girls. We wish to thank them both for their wonderful work. For three years now the girls have received letters of appreciation of their work. The following is the line-up as the girls appeared in most of the games. They also are the ones who received the W's.

The Waite team certainly started out on its 1921 career in the right way. Friday, Feb. 11, out team journeyed down to North Toledo and succeeded in putting over a 36 to 3 win. Our opponents were outplayed throughout the game and the Purple and Gold sextette came out with colors flying. Waite 29-Instructors 18. Once again Waite brought home the baconv. On Friday, Feb. 18, our sextette won from a picked team of Toledo Gym instructors to the. tune of 29 to 18. The game, however, was not so one-sided as the scoreseems to indicate. Good naturecl rivalry existed throughout the game and both teams insisted that it was the best ever. Waite 19-Central 14. Feb. 19 Central journeyed across the river only to meet with defeat, for once again Waite added a win to its records. The visitors were fast and full of pep and the game was a close, evenly matched contest. Once the visitors got a two-point lead but VVaite quickly recovered and the game ended with Waite holding down the big end of a 19-14 score. Waite 19--Central 21. I The unexpected happened. Waite went over to Central this time and playing only five men instead of the accustomed six, bowed down to defeat. The game was nip and tuck from start to finish and ended disastrously for Waite. Central succeeded in putting over a 19 to 21 win. We are con- fldent, however, had the game been played under the usual six men rules, the result would have been different. Waite 21-Central 10. Again VVaite and Central met and each having one win to their credit, did much to put each team on its tip-toes. Once again Wiaite came forward with the usual dash and captured a 21 to 10 win. The game was staged on the Y. VV. floor. The Central sextette seemed to lack its usual force and its f211J Purple and Gold ' Waite 'High School' Nineteen-twenty-one shooting slumped noticeably. The Fine work of ljsther Fritz showed up especially well in this game. So the little contest between Viiaite and Central ended two and one in favor US.
