It is greatly satisfying to know you, nearly three hundred striving, ambitious young people, who complete your high school education this year. When the rest of the world is down at the mouth, you heartily struggle on. The times are hard and many men lose faith in their fellow- men, but you with stout hearts have carried on. In the physical world even nature perversely withheld her generous bounty, but you with faces' front and optimistic courage shouted Let's go, let's finish the task. And now as you arrive at this longed-for destination, glowing with the satisfaction of work well done, you need but look about you to see other and larger worlds to conquer. May you continue to have the courage, the zeal, the energy to conquer these worlds of your future as you had them to overcome all obstacles in your past. May ignorance, in- justice, and selishness melt away before your courageous advance as the chilly mist melts away before the glowing sun's bright rays. In times like these some men grow faint and fall by the wayside, but you are the hope of the world. May your lives be successful, may your conquests be many, may your joys be full. G. F. FRANZ, Principal. I 10 l I MR. C. H. SCI-IAFER Assisfant Principal A democracy can do nothing finer than to offer its young people ex- cellent educational opportunities. In this respect, Cincinnati is one of the foremost cities of our country with public day schools, public night schools, and a municipal university. However, opportunities in themselves are not sufficient. There must be those who will accept them. The graduates of the Class of 1931 il- lustrate what can be done by making the most out of oneis opportunities. Graduation signifies the completion of a live-year course. Commence- ment should be a time for planning further endeavors, a time for en- visaging the progress they would like to make during the next five years. Cincinnati has made it possible for these students to graduate from a first grade high school. They have contributed freely of their time, energy, and money. Let us trust that the graduates of 1931 will prove to be such good citizens that the city will be repaid for its investments. C. H. SCHAFER, Assisfant Principal. llll . MR. L. STEGMAN Assistant Secretary To you, the members of the Senior Class of 1931, I express my appreciation f o r y o u r splendid cooperation and untir- ing efforts in supporting all the activities of our school. May your daily endeavors all through life bring to you as much success as you have helped to bring to West Night. LESTER STEGMAN, Assistant Secrefary. MR. E. M. BLERSCH Secretary The titles, Most Intelligent - Most Athletic - Most Witty, may bring a certain degree of satisfaction to the ones selected by the Senior Class. However, far greater than any individual classiication would be a character molded from a combination of the above groups plus a firm resolution to take advantage of the opportunities offered to you. Thus you will have a firmer foundation upon which to build your highway of life and to improve those facul- ties with which you have been endowed. E. M. BLERSCH, Secretary. F 12 THE FACULTY MR. G. F.

Let us first define an individualist. An individualist is one who has the interests of humanity at heart but Who, at the same time, has the courage to follow the dictates of his conscience under all circumstances despite the World's disapproval. The present age is in direst need of individuals, but in place of indi- viduals We have what is popularly termed, the masses, frequently ignorant and uneducated-masses which are composed of men and Women of infinite possibilities, but men and women who fail to realize their place in this world as individuals and not as parts of a mass. Individualism of men and women is needed more today than ever before, for Without it We can hope for neither good governments, World peace nor individual accomplishment. Today We stand at the place where, as Ralph Waldo Emerson puts it, Man is timid and apologetic, he is no longer upright, he dares not say 'I think,' or 'I am,' but quotes some saint or sage. When man reaches this stage the way is paved for l71l corrupt politics, brutal suppression of the many, and intolerant domina- tion by a few. Individual thought and accomplishment are discouraged to the point where only a very few persons even possess the courage and fortitude to think them. The very words individualist and non-conformist are strongly dis- approved and heavily frowned upon by society because the true indi- vidualist exposes society's shams, rank hypocrisies and false prides, by the churches because the reasoning non-conformist demands that the church prove to him those things which she requires him to accept with a blind, unreasoning faith, also, that the church permits him to use his reason in all things--reason, the most wonderful gift man could receive. That outstanding individualist and non-conformist, Thomas Paine, rightly said: The most formidable weapon against errors of every kind is reason. Whatever social order, institution, church or creed that deprives man of his right and freedom to reason for himself, is standing on a false foundation and, sooner or later, will have to fall, for man cannot be forever deprived of his rights! Let us consider the relationship of individualism to four subjects: good government, world peace, happiness, and individual accomplish- ment. We have, first, good government. I can best make you understand the necessity of personal individualism for the sake of good government by quoting John Stuart Mill, that staunch friend of liberty, who said: The worth of a State, in the long run, is the worth of the individuals composing it. Note, he says the worth of the individuals and not the numbers of the unthinking masses! The government of any country is simply a reflection of the people in that country. If the morale, the ideals, the thoughts and actions of a people are of a high standard, the government will be of a correspond- ingly high standard. If a people are degraded in mind, body and action, the government will also be of a corrupt and unworthy nature. From this it can readily be seen that good, clean government vitally depends on good, clean individuals, and there can be neither worthiness nor deep- seated goodness in people whose right to freedom and honest, upright reasoning has been taken away! K The subject of government leads us up to our second consideration: world peace. You will wonder, perhaps, what individualism has to do with world peace. Everything. It is with world peace as it is with good government-we can have none without the individualism of our people. l72l There can be no world peace until men and women reason out for them- selves the fallacy of war, until men and women logically arrive at the conclusion that war is murder, wholesale slaughter, with nothing heroic or patriotic about it. Until people the world over reach a higher ideal of patriotism, until they arrive at a higher and nobler conception of their obligation to humanity, we will have no world peace. As long as people are satisfied to remain parts of a mass, we will have war, for the masses are easily swayed by eloquent and loquacious war propagandist militarists who persuade men to sacrifice their homes, their families, their chances for success in this world and all for what purpose? Nothing more than the ennobling, character-building, enriching and elevating occupation of wholesale slaughter, the opportunity to murder in the most cruel, most heartless manner possible other fathers and boys the age of your own perhaps. When patriotism is simply nationalism and not a love for all our fellowmen, patriotism is the blackest curse ever hurled at man. Love for one's country is good, but love for our brother man is an absolute necessity if we would have world peace, and there can be no world-Wide love of our fellow man without the individual understand- ing and appreciation for him on the part of every man and woman throughout the world. And now let us see what individualism has to do with happiness, that El Dorado for which all mankind strives. William Lyon Phelps writes: The happiest person is the person who thinks the most interesting thoughts. Now it stands to reason that the degree of happiness ob- tained is entirely up to the individual, for those thoughts which would prove intensely interesting to the mathematician would perhaps be of no interest at all to the musician or artist. It is therefore necessary that each person do his own thinking. Happiness is something wholly within and not without man. If We permit ourselves to be merely parts of a mass we cannot attain happiness, for we are inevitably influenced by the mass thought, and since happi- ness is something mental, spiritual rather than physical and material, it is of the utmost importance that we store our mentalities with worth- while thoughts and ideas. While the books of great minds can help us in this, yet it is entirely up to each individual to think things out for himself, else all the books and all the learning in the world will not bring happiness. It is only when we reach a certain mental state of satisfaction, within ourselves, that 'we can know any degree of real happiness. When we permit any persons, churches, or institutions of any kind to do our thinking for us we are depriving ourselves of the only possible ayenue through which genuine happiness can come-individual thought and reasoning. l75l Lastly, we arrive at individualism and its relationship to accomplish- ment. Every Work of art, every piece of literature, every scientific in- vention is an expression of some one's individual conception of the beauties and Wonders around him. Every one of us is capable of far more than We do. If We will but realize what infinite possibilities man, as an individualist, possesses We will open the Way for more extensive accom- plishment. Individual thought and logic possess inestimable value for that man or woman who would have success in the World today. And Why? Because that mind constantly subject to clear, logical reasoning paves the Way for originality of thought, ideas and ideals, and originality pays in dollars and cents the man or Woman Whose mind, accustomed to individual reasoning, can thus adapt original ideas to practical plans. In conclusion, remember this one thing: We do not Want masses of ignorant, uneducated, unhappy and dominated human machines-We Want upright, honest, free-thinking individuals with a fair chance of happiness and success for every man and Woman. We Want, and We need, men and women with fear of neither persons, church nor creed in their hearts, but an abiding love for all their fellowmen.

NVhere from the purple sky, Lights of the West Night High Beckon an eager band On to our goal. Here at the fountain side Soft murmuring, Here may We long abide By learning's springg Under the moon and stars, Nothing our purpose mars, Lending a helping hand, Nearing our goal.

Vice-Presirlenf CARL BEIMESCHE . . . , Secretary and Treasurer Senior Class History By PEGGY HYNDMAN Another five years have come and gone and again a Senior Class leaves the school Wherein much was to be gained, if energy was coupled with desire. Each individual entered West Night with some purpose in view. Some entered for social opportunities the school offers, some came for book knowledge and a diplomag while others came for the wisdom and experience to be gained by five years, constant contact with the multi- farious types of people aggregated in a school of our size. But the Wise persons were those who entered with the three of the above purposes in mind. Those people are our Seniors today. As Freshmen, life was just one hour after another of study, for the large number of people around us and the baffling mystery of that great machine, West Night, with its complicated machinery, was too over- awing for our unaccustomed minds to grasp. As sophisticated Sophomores, we had a slightly more interesting out- look on life in general. It was now our privilege to counsel and to in- struct the Freshmen in the intricacies of high school existence. Then, too, the athletics and school club activities assumed more interesting proportions in our eyes, and a feeling of school spirit arose in each heart. E771 ,, 7 L Pre-Juniors! or Post-Sophomores if you'd rather! We didn't know just exactly where we were in this third year, as we could claim neither the superiority of the Sophornores ncr the dignity of the Juniors. There was just one thing to dog to become vitally interested in the Voice, the athletics, and the many clubs in West Night. Which we did. This fitted us for our position as Juniors, as we gained much both socially and intellectually, from our interest and work in the various or- ganizations of West Night. As Juniors, we had the right to organize our class and to elect officers to preside over us. We elected the following officers: President ...,i........ ..... A LBERT BOLTE Vice-President i.....,,.. . . . ETHEL O,BRIEN Secretary. and Treasurer, ....... RICHARD MEYERS Finally, this greatest of all positions was ours. We were Seniors at last! As Seniors we had much to hold our interest. We elected our class ofiicers: President ...,.. , . EDWARD THUNING Vice-President .,........ . . PEGGY HYNDMAN Secretary and Treasurer .,.. . . .CARL BEIMESCHE Then we had our class meetings and many social functions. Finally, we began our numerous preparations for graduation. Graduation! What joys and what sorrows that hour holds for every Senior, who has made himself a necessary part of West Night, who has helped to build up the morale, the glory and honor of West Night, and who has formed strong links of friendship with his fellow students. As we leave our school we realize that we have passed through a vital stage in our lives. A period upon which we can look back with joy or with regret. It depends absolutely upcn what we have put into our work. If our whole hearts were in our school, we now take unto our- selves a more joyous wisdom than we could ever experience elsewhere. l79l 4 1 P i Last Will and Testament of the Class of Nineteen Hundred Thirty-one KNOW ALL MEN BY THESE PRESENTS, That we, the Class of Nine- teen Hundred Thirty-one, being of as sound mind and ability as may reasonably be expected, and bearing in mind the proximity of our de- parture from this well beloved institution of learning, do hereby make, ordain and declare this to be our last will and testament, annulling any and all previous similar documents ever made.

We know the struggles they have experienced to reach the end of their high school career. They are so proud because they have attained their goal despite tremendous obstacles. We, too, should participate in this acclaim. Have we not come three-fourths of the way on the rocky road to the diploma? Our posi- tion on the threshold of our Senior year was not gained in one sudden brilliant spurt, but by three years of hard labor. Night after night We have attended school, sometimes pinching ourselves in order to stay awake, often omitting dinner so as not to be late, frequently missing some wonderful dates, thereby losing the best friend, plodding through the snow and slush on cruel winter nights, and sometimes yearning for the park bench as We dutifully tried to assimilate the precepts laid down by the teacher. No, it has not been easy. Still, as we look back over the years, we would not change them if We could, for We find that the little unpleasantnesses were eclipsed by our happy memories. Perhaps we visualize the cute little blonde who sat be- side us in our class of mathematics, or the venerable gray-eyed instructor who made history a pleasure instead of a bore. Among the people We met at West Night, We found many true friends-often our soulmates. But through the thick and the thin, the good and the bad, We have kept our chins up, our heads clear, and our eyes fixed upon our goal. We are proud of the work We have accomplished and of our position on the home stretch. Only one more year of toil, and We shall have gained our objective and then it will be time to set a new one. lS7i 1 'LL I QWVVIQJZ, ,I X W 41 X 'fxfgf 22 A Q.

' PRE JUNIGRS ll 1 wwf 'E ' ' 35 4 A- + 1 K Pre-Junior Class History By RUTH EHRHARDT Why you shall say at break of day, Sail on! sail on! sail on! and on! What dauntless courage, what perseverance, and yet this is the essence of the spirit of West Night. Especially we, the Pre-Juniors, must have this embodied in us. Do you suppose Columbus would have had to urge his men onward if their goal were already in sight? No, it was the un- known, the hardships, the privations they had to endure that made them revolt. It was after they had lost sight of their Motherland, their pro- tector, that they faltered. But under a man such as Columbus with that indomitable spirit that marks a leader, they were bound to succeed. Even if they had never seen land, they would have returned fortified with the knowledge that they had succeeded in disproving the tales of the terrors that awaited those who ventured too far into the unknown regions. How like Columbus's quest for long-sought India is our search for knowledge! We, the Pre-Juniors, feel now as his men must have felt when- Behind him lay the gray Azores, Behind, the Gates of Hercules, Before him not the ghost of shores, Before him only shoreless seas.' We have lost sight of our Freshman year and our Senior year is not even on the horizon, but that ever-urgent desire for education spurs us on, on, and on. , Despite the scoffers, Columbus was true to his ideals. They were the forces that drove him ever onward to his goal. They are the same forces which urge us on to our Senior year. And when the voyage seems a bit rough to the Freshmen and Sophomores, let them remember the advice of Columbus, Sail on, sail on, sail on, and on. ' i911 I 4 1 l 4 1 4 1 M.

REDWAY Summer was drawing rapidly to a close as the reopening of West Night approached. To attend or not to attend was a question that did not need much meditation, and again we found ourselves in the halls of West Night. Our Freshman year at this school was something of an adventure to see if we really desired an education, a thing which would be beneficial to us in our later years. In the life of every man or woman there is one thing that should never be neglected, that is, education, and the attain- ment of higher intellectual values for life is empty without them. These are the only things that will enable us to appreciate and realize the beauties of life besides benefiting us materially. The first week of our Sophomore year was all hustle and bustle. At the end of that week West Night emerged as the largest of all high schools in the city. This great mass of students was most admirably handled by the faculty, who carried out this diflicult and tedious work with a smile of encouragement to every one. The faculty advised the students in the choice of subjects, and the term began in a miraculously short time. Student activities of every kind, whether academic, social, or ath- letic, have always found the Sophomores well represented. We have done everything in our power to carry on the traditions of West Night, and, in our remaining years at school, it is our wish to do even more and greater deeds for our Alma Mater. To summarize the accomplishments of the Sophomore Class needs a worthier pen than mine, but in the years to come we shall be able to look back with pleasant memories to the time, though only too short, we were permitted to spend at this wonderful institution, West Night. wi Y The Schoolgirl That I Hated By A. J. WATERHOUSE Sometimes when memory draws the veil, and I look back a way To where the sun was shining in my happy youthful day, I catch the scent of lilacs as they blossomed by our door, And I hear the robins chirping as they used to chirp of yore, And che oriole is flitting like a ball of living fire, And the river's sort o' whispering just as though 'twould never tire. And then, amid the faces that on memory's screen I see, Comes the schoolgirl that I hated when she sat in front of me. Somehow I see her plainly now in scanty dress of blue, With eyes in part coquettish and in part serene and true, With curls that liked to catch the light and twist it in and out, And lips just right for kissing, if they were inclined to pout. I knew that she was pretty, but I said she was no good- Though I couldn't help admiring her, no boy that's human could- But she made up faces at me, and she could a vixen be, The schoolgirl that I hated when she sat in front of me. She wouldn't play at marbles, and she couldn't play at ball, And I often intimated that she was no good at all. I dropped a cricket down her back in cheerful boyish way, And she yelled firstg then I yelled next, when teacher was to pay. She wouldn't Coon a melon, though I asked her oftentimes, And she ridiculed my first attempts at poor and broken rhymes. Oh, she was a thorough failure, as any boy could see, The schoolgirl that I hated when she sat in front of me. She beat me at the lessons that we found within our books, And when she went above me all scornful were her looks, But when the teacher whipped me I saw her cry one day, And I said that girls is better than what some fellers say, And I sort of half forgave her for her lack of hardihood, Though I even then insisted that she really was no good, But times have changed since then, for I-I'm married, don't you see To the schoolgirl that I hated, when she sat in front of me. liool C T -ir ' - :' f S-F 2 11, -'i '--' ' - e .xr ,..., . - :fx -'if f - - fix r Q , 1 ' :- :Q -- -i T?-I - ,. ,, l .Q - 1 - f-- --iq f ,TTPLA7--N,4 X- .U -'pfh -4' ,NvffAK, -. fwikla, W- ' ' 'KQV' fx .. ,, 1'-li -.- -.

Equipped with keen enthusiasm, we started our travel over the road of higher learning, which paves the way to accomplishment. After our enrollment, we found innumerable courses from which to choose and the best of facilities offered. We carefully made our selection with the able assistance and guidance of the intelligent faculty of West Night. The rapid assemblage of classes started us to diligent work at an early date with our future comrades and classmates. The edifice itself, a mark of distinction, contributes much to in- crease the interest of the student body, and the tributes of former stu- dents serve as an incentive for the newcomer. After a short time we found a number of our fellow-students tarry- ing by the wayside, not having sufficient courage to combat the difficult tasks encountered and not willing to make the necessary sacrifices to gain achievement. The students who remained made constant advances. The excellent support of our teachers helped to raise our ideals to the pinnacle stage and many times materially lightened the more irksome duties. Also, the numerous social activities were seemingly arranged so as to give us renewed energy and ambition when essential elements were at a low ebb. The spirit of good fellowship so prevalent at West Night is greatly influenced by the privilege given new students to take advantage of membership in various clubs. We have ended our first year at West Night. May we forge ahead steadfastly during the remainder of our journey until we reach SUccEss. lioxj W - - Keep Cut By B. Y.

It deals with everyday occurrences, and we ind its principles used in running elevators, automobiles, and electric dynamos. The aim in understand- ing the behavior and characteristics of different substances is not to convert all of us into physicists, but to appreciate the value of the prac- tical application of this science. In hoisting a fifty-pound safe up a plank twenty feet long and five feet high, a man does not need to exert a force of fifty pounds, but, disregarding friction, he exerts a force of only twelve and one- half pounds. This is the law of levers, or the comparatively small amount of force needed to overcome resistance by lengthening the dis- tance through which the force acts. Then we have the principle of Archimedes upon which depends transportation by water. An im- mersed body is buoyed up by a force equal to the weight of the fluid which it displaces. By reason of the fact that sound is carried through the air and is sensitive to certain metals, We have our radio, telephone, and wireless telegraphy. Due to the earnest efforts and splendid methods of presenting the subject in such a Way as to enable us to understand the most intricate phenomena and make them as plain and clear as performing our daily duties, We have passed another milestone in our education. In closing, we Wish to extend our sincere thanks and appreciation to Mr. Bauer and to Mr. Whinnery, our beloved teachers. l1091 'V I l L 1 1 5 A w lr Y N By LLOYD MCNEAL Those of us who have completed the course in Botany have cer- tainly been enlightened by the many changes that occur in plant life. After we finished a study of leaves in general, learned how to distinguish them, one from another, and discovered why leaves fall from the plant after a certain period of time regardless of freezing temperatures, we made an artistic collection of them. Then followed a brief course in the study of plant life. With the aid of the microscope we analyzed the plants to learn more about the leaf and root structure, and how the living cells carry on their work. With this instrument we could readily discern the movements of the living parts of a cell, which are invisible to the naked eye. Finally, we made many interesting experiments with seeds and seedlings. , These are the subjects which have held our attention throughout the year. Not many students gave up this subject of natural science after once becoming acquainted with the different facts. The study of Botany appeals to many of us because such gifts of nature as flowers, trees, and numerous other plants have influenced in some manner our everyday lives. i Aside from the hikes and our own efforts, the class received the greatest part of its botanical knowledge in the classroom. Through the combined efforts of Miss Stephenson and Mr. Baird, We have gained much knowledge of a science which does not pay big dividends in the com- mercial world. Since our love for the beauties of Mother Nature has been greatly stimulated, we feel that our evenings have not been spent ln valn. lllll 1 By J. W. TANSEY Every one seems to be more or less inquisitive. We desire to know, to probe, to discover, and to learn the causes and secrets of the laws and relations that make up the earth and her nature. This innate curiosity is expressed in various manners and frequently leads to great work and progress in the fields of science. The nature of this impelling force differs within the individual and generates great variations of interest. To those who are perplexed by the changes of matter and laws of the elements, the science of chemistry holds forth its arms and invites these inquiring minds ,ro enter the sanctuary to partake of the esoteric laws and principles. Within the laboratory the students are granted unconditional freedom of study and research, but the novice socn learns that this is different, exacting, and hard work. A' Modern chemistry was born out of alchemy, but it had to bury its progenitor before becoming a science. Superstitious and conjectural hypothesis was discarded. The truth was separated from the false- hood. The remaining facts were woven together, and, by addition from time to time of new discoveries and positive theories, chemistry has been built into one of the basic sciences. The advancement has not ceased, greater knowledge will crystallize out of the future. The present-day student beginning this study is not confronted with the myths and falsities of yesteryear. He can learn in one short year that which took centuries to prove or discover. Elementary students are now taught truths which frustrated many great scientists of the past. The nature of the science, which deals so directly with the lives of all, causes the early devotee to worship at each new shrine of genius and thought. He is carried away by the romance which permeates the science-the fiisl tranquillity of decomposing mercuric oxide to the violence of decompo- sition of Water by sodium. The imagination is aroused and is combined with his inquisitiveness which projects the investigator on the Wings of fancy and carries him deeper and deeper into the caverns of chemistry. The study takes on more the avatar of a great adventure rather than the absorption of mere facts and statements. When his inquisitiveness leads the scholar into other fields of science than chemistry, he is often confused by the great differences of opinion and teaching. The ,different camps Wage continual War against each other, belittle and refute the theories of the opponents in such Ways that the uninitiated student wonders in quandary and in disgust. This does not happen in chemistry. There is but one school, and every new truth which yields undiscovered facts is applied in a constructive manner to eliminate any possibility of false doctrines. Chemistry requires study and relinquishes knowledge only to those who H11 this specification. The night school student driven on by the impetuous acquisition of learning must set aside his pleasures and give himself over to the rule of the gods of erudition when he enters the study of this enchanting science. Wearied by the toil of the day and Worried by the chimeras of life, this is almost an insurmountable task, but the character which prompts the thought expands to carry the student through to a glorious victory. The impulse has been satiatedg the regions of chemistry have been explored. The reward is Worthy of the labor. fll4l p Civics By MARIE HUMMEL This is station C-I-V-I-C-S, West Night, broadcasting for ninety pupils from seven to ten o'clock every Friday night. Perhaps you have never heard of this station, for empty barrels make the most noisef' but this isn't the case with the Friday night Civics Class. One really does not appreciate the Constitution of the United States and the men who helped to form it until he has joined the membership of station C-I-V-I-C-S. Civics is a most interesting subject and one on which every citizen should be well informed. It is surprising how time flies on Friday evenings as the students become involved in the intricacies of our government. Then, too, Mr. Andrews and Mrs. Martin never allow our interest to wane. Our in- structors have taught us to respect the Constitution of the United States, and we have decided to have a constitution for our Civics Class. Our preamble reads as follows: We, the students of the Civics Class, in order to form a more perfect student body, establish intelligence, insure un- derstanding, provide for the common knowledge, promote the general interest, and secure the respect of humanity to ourselves and our fellow students, do ordain and establish this station C-I-V-I-C-S as instrumental in making us better citizens. We are now signing off, but we hope to have you visit this station next year. liisl w 1 I 4 F V K Special Classes The Special Classes include several that meet twice a week, either Monday and Wednesday, or Tuesday and Thursday. If one could peep into these various workshops or classrooms, he would be amazed to see the interest displayed among the students. The purpose of the Cooking, Dressmaking, Art Needle, Batik and Design, and Interior Decorating Classes is not to produce expert cooks, dressmakers or Parisian modistes, or model housewives, but to encourage a love for the beautiful things in life, to assist the prospective brides in preparing appetizing meals, to make the home more attractive by con- forming to color schemes in combining different hues and shades in draperies, furnishings, and carpets. The object of the different types of drawings taught in the rooms and the cabinet work completed in the shops is to acquaint the students with the valuable everyday problems and to offer suggestions in plan- ning and in carrying out their part in the equipment of their homes. A very important one is to create the desire within the young people to cooperate with the members of their families and the business world. If all the opportunities listed above are utilized to their best ad- vantages and favorable results are obtained, the students of West Night will have gained their objectives. lll91 BATIK AND INTERIOR DECORATING CLASS HOUSEHOLD ARTS CLASS ARCHITECTURAL DRAWING CLASS MECHANICAL DRAWING CLASS INDUSTRIAL ARTS CLASS Wx-4 , ,, - 2fp7w2ftiq,l?QAIm F' Q-' f' v K ' ' ' H.

Treasurer The Dramatic Club By MARGUERITE EcKEs Never before in the history of the Dramatic Club have so many stu- dents desired to join the organization. As the membership was limited to thirty members, it was necessary to require a special grade in the Eng- lish language. Consequently, the students who had not attained this standard were not accepted as members in this activity. Life is short-too short to get everything. Choose you must, and as you choose, choose only the best in friends, in books, in recreation, in everything. The members of the group on the opposite page have chosen the interesting work of Dramatic Art as one of their forms of recreation. During the course of the past year the club has produced many plays. Since the acting in these productions was so efficiently per- formed, we found it very diilicult to decide which cast produced the best play. Most of our time during the last two months was devoted to the four-act play, The SPY, which was given for the student body on the last night of school. The graduating class of the Dramatic Club wish our worthy di- rectress, Miss Niedermeyer, and their fellow-members u A little Work, a little play To keep us going-and so, good-day! A little warmth, a little light Of love's bestowing-and so good-night! A little fun, to match the sorrow Of each day's growing-and so, good-morrow! A little trust that when we die We reap our sowing! And so-good-bye! ll331 I HARRY SLATTERY ..AA. ,,...... P resident MCDONALD BENSON . , .,.. Vice-President ROSEMARY WEBER . . . ...,A. Secerefary LLOYD MCNEAL ,......,,..., ........ T treasurer The Science Club By ROSEMARY WEBER The Science Club of West Night has for its objective the advance- ment of scientific knowledge. Any student of the school is eligible who has earned at least one-half credit Ca grade of eighty or above? in any of the following natural sciences: general science, physics, chemistry, botany, zoology, geology, or astronomy. All teachers of West Night, who teach the subjects mentioned above, automatically become members of this club. Meetings are held on alternate Tuesday evenings in Room 102 at nine-forty o'clock. Any student, having been a member of the club, may retain membership after graduation as long as the regular dues are paid, which entitles him to all privileges this club extends to its members. We have had several interesting and instructive lectures this year by men prominent in the scientific field. A new plan has been devised which is of interest and benefit to our group. Any member who has a special hobby is encouraged to speak on same before the club members at one cf the meetings. Another very interesting event was our visit to the Observatory. Since many students had not been there, the trip was en- tertaining as well as instructive. Although the Science Club is not primarily a social organization, it had several social events during the year. At the close of the school year a banquet is given. These events always prove a great success. The Science Club, while not very old, has been increasing in mem- bership, and is considered one of the important activities of West Night. ll3Sl V 1 i , ,, 3 1 ALLEN STIENKAMP . , . ...........Q. President MARIE WESTRICH . . ........ . Vice-Prcsidenf JOSEPH FISCH . t . .... Secrefary and Treaszzrcr El Club Espanol By JOSEPH FISCH On October 11, 1930, the Spanish Club saw the first ray of light. About iifty enthusiastic students of Spanish assembled in Room 106 with the premeditated idea of forming a club. Out of a veritable hodge- podge emerged the youngest club in the school. The members of the club met every other Thursday. Although the first few meetings were called to organize the club, we soon began short programs of Spanish dialogues and song. Senor Valles of Argentina and his friend, Senor Cruz of Porto Rico, displayed their interest in our at- tempts to learn their language and endeavored to aid us in using it. The main purpose of this club is to give ambitious students an op- portunity to expand their knowledge of Spanish through dialogues, reci- tations, reading, and debates. Another purpose is to give all a greater knowledge of the Spanish-speaking countries of the world. Miss Bass, who has taught in Chile, gave an interesting talk of her travels in that country. She enhanced her story by exhibiting many Curios which she had collected during her stay in South America. We hope that the Spanish Club shall be perpetuated and that it shall grow to be one of the foremost organizations in West Night. l1371 ' FRANK MICHAEL .......4........,A...

RUEHLMANN While the phrase Bigger and Better does not prevail in one sense of its meaning, it does in another. For the first time in the history of the West Night Glee Club it has been necessary for a prospective member of this organization to have his voice tested. By this process of elimina- tion, only those who have good strong voices, which will lend themselves to a betterment of harmony and volume, are qualified. This condition denied membership to many students who did not qualify or Whose self-consciousness kept them out of the organization. Regardless of this elimination, the club has an enrollment of sixty members, and, al- though the membership is not bigger, the volume is better. At the end of last year, Mr. Carl Abaecherli, a faithful director of this organization for Hve years, resigned as leader of this activity to devote more of his time to legal affairs. The members heard with regret that he was giving up his work at West Night. This year we have been under the direction of Mr. H. A. Dunkel, who deserves great commendation for his Wonderful work as director of the club. His efforts, in promoting the welfare of our organization, were untiring. During the course of the year we made several changes in the Con- stitution, which were done for the benefit of the Glee Club in the future. ll39l 0 LIBRARY Book Talks BY FERN LUTHER, Librarian zz For books are more than books, they are the life, The very heart and core of ages past, The reason why men lived, and worked and died, The essence and quintessence of their lives. -A m y Lo well. If you have a bookcase in your room in which you keep the bat- tered treasures of your early reading, try to add new books. Reading is the door to learning, the gateway into that garden of the Hesperides where golden fruit hangs ready to be plucked within the reach of him who has the will to take and eat. More important than how to read is what to read. We find the process of reading is merely a skill, whereas the thing read is a possession which affects character and life. The best books for young people have certain influences. They can be read again and again and the one who reads them develops a desire for Wider reading. Most books are conveyed from one person to another. Many of the books you are reading at present have been handed to you by some one who wanted to transfer a pleasure. Be sure there are several books among the ones you have read that you can reread and still find companionable. After you have read Lorna Doone, Quentin Durwardf' Puck of Pook's Hill,', Rip Van Winkle, you will want to read books similar to them. 11411 A I 1 l CLARENCE ASPENLEITER, Lmulrr The Band Another school year has passed and the West Night Band has dis- banded until another football season comes around. Then with the flashing of the orange and the black, we again shall find the band faith- ful to the end. Win or lose, the musicians furnish the necessary spirit for the team and stimulate the student body during the fall months when the gridiron rules. Another year could not pass into history without referring to that eventful day when East Night and West Night clashed on Thanksgiving morn at Withrow Stadium. Although sub-zero weather, the boys turned out thirty-five strong and struggled to furnish those invigorating band numbers because they were handicapped by the freezing of their instruments. The pep meeting must also be mentioned, for our staunch friends again exhibited themselves in gala array as they marched down the aisle of our school auditorium led by their director and drum major, Mr. Clarence J. Aspenleiter, in full dress outfit. As we again close the doors of good West Night, let us have pleasant memories of the year and look forward to the fall of 1931 when We again shall find the band assembled for regular band rehearsals. . 11431 LESTER STEGMAN ..,.,.......A...,A.4A President DONALD STITH . . . ...A Vice-President JOHN HENKEL .. ...,..

Its purpose was to encourage and develop a keener in- terest in all the activities of West Night. Membership is limited to the letter men. The social committee planned a number of social events which the club hoped would be the needed stimuli necessary to arouse the students. Although this organization is still in its infancy, it shows great promise in the near future of developing into a prominent club of West Night. .

The boys on the football team displayed a plucky spirit and an unequaled determination 'tto fight to the last. This season the boys played an eleven-man-team football, with splendid cooperation in the execution of their plays. I believe that With last year's experience behind them, the remaining men will form a nucleus for a winner next year. The basketball team again enjoyed a successful season, although they broke one to one with our rival, East Night. Our players were alert and shifty, and they gave their best in every game, regardless of their opponents. After the unfortunate and undeserved defeat by East Night, the boys rallied and gave the next team with Whom they played a ter- rible drubbingf' for the 'EO1d West Night Spirit had been aroused, which made them more determined to Win. f146l ERNEST BLERSCH Faculty Managcr l J DONALD STITH Assistant Football Coach l147j LESTER STEGM AN Student Manager ALBERT SILBER, Capinin Football B31 THOMAS MAXVHINNEY Summarizing the activities of the football team during the current season, we regret that we are unable to sing praises to a successful year. Our team met their first opponents, the St. Bernard Merchants, in the Miami Valley Football League. Although this game did not afford a victory, the boys deserve credit, as they played a remarkable style of football. The second game of the season was played at Sayler Park. The score resulted in a nothing to nothing tie. The following week our team met the Reading Merchants at Reading. The boys were denied a vic- tory in the last few minutes of play because their opposing team made the extra point. Ulland Tinners were the fourth contenders. The game was the most strenuous one of the year. Our boys showed very good form, and forced their opponents to a nothing to nothing tie. The last official game in the league was played with the Valley Merchants, Club. The loss of this game was largely due to injuries received by one of the most efficient members of the team. The following weeks were devoted to strenuous practice in prepara- tion for the annual classic between the East Night and West Night High Schools to be played Thanksgiving morning at Withrow Stadium. The game was played quickly, due to the cold weather. Having the heavier ll491 team, East Night had a slight edge on the orange and black team. This amounted to nothing compared to the pluck shown by the XVest Night men. A most excellent brand of football was displayed throughout the entire game. This was due to the earnest and untiring efforts of Coach Bradford and Assistant Coach Stith, who drilled their men to play the best football known. The efforts of Messrs. Bradford and Stith to make a winning football team cannot be expressed in these few lines. The style of playing used by the West Night men in the first quarter of the game with East Night completely baffled the latter's team, and the East Nighters did not find a way to curb this attack until the second quarter. With the advantage of a heavier line and greatly assisted by their letter man, Bohl, East Night men took advantage of a few costly fumbles and they were awarded the game. We are looking to a more successful season next fall. The only loss of valuable players in our present team will be that of XVinebrenner, who played the quarter-back position. We are fortunate in having only one loss, for, in the past few seasons, graduation has usually deprived the team of its best players. The members of the team who were successful in winning the coveted letter of the school are: Carl Beimesche, Charles Day, Larry Gallager, John Henkel, Harold Kessler, Irvin Kombrink, Arthur Leiman, Thomas Mawhinney, John Mayer, Robert Neal, Robert Sicking, Albert Silber, Clifford Steinke, Ralph Tolle, Philip Wenger, and Wilbur Winnebrenner. W llsoi Basketball By THOMAS MAWHINNEY During the basketball season of nineteen thirty-one, we were again honored by a successful team that well upheld the glorious standards of West Night. Of the fourteen games played this season, our basketeers were successful in gaining eleven victories. The schedule this year was not as large as previous years, but the op- posing teams were somewhat superior. Our basket tossers lost to those teams that had established a very prominent record. The most outstanding games of the year were the annual ones with our old rivals, the East Night Owls. Our quintet was forced to share the winning honors this year because it lost three points in the second game. The return of Ralph Derby, john Mayer, and David Moschowitz to the team this season formed the basis on which Coach Bradford organized his team, and, with the addition of Ben Brown, Oscar Casagrande, Bob Davis, Richard Martin, and Edward Pfirrmann, formed the team which carried our school through many victories. The players who received the coveted letter were: Ben Brown, Oscar Casagrande, Ralph Derby, Bob Davis, Richard Martin, John Mayer, David Moschowitz, and Edward Piirrmann. The following members, John Henkel, Harold Kessler, Peter Kramer, and Clifford Steinke, deserve much credit and praise for their efforts displayed in attempting to help win the games for West Night.

MICHAEL In choosing a play for the West Night Theater Party the committee endeavored to secure one which would so engross the minds of the hearers as to completely obliterate, for the present, any thought of the cold, hard world of reality. It would appear to be an impossibility, in this age of shallow plots and light drama, to satisfy the desired qualifications for the occasion. However, the National Players at Cox Theater solved the problem by presenting a melodrama in a similar manner as it was per- formed fifty years ago. To start an evening with ecstasy, the torch was applied to the tallow footlights and the children of West Night were requested to join in the spirit of the event and act in a similar fashion as the audiences of the eighties acted. From this moment the hero was cheered and the villain jeered, while the others amused themselves by throwing cheap candies, old silverware, paper boxes, and shelled peanuts fthe management requested that only shelled peanuts be usedj in the direction of the stage. The program was progressing under these trying conditions when suddenly we realized that it was time for the intermission. During this period the actors and actresses gave the candy and soft drink venders a helping hand by distributing their wares among the crowd. Suddenly an old time snops', band began to torment every one present with a vol- ley of hideous shrieks and moans that put to shame any back-fence con- cert. Having obtained a fresh supply of shelled peanuts and paper boxes, the audience drove the insurgents from their point' of disadvantage be- fore much damage was done. The second part of the play was performed in the same manner as the preceding one, the actors and actresses being very stiff and not at- tempting to dodge the refuse hurled by the patrons. The time between the scenes was spent in reciting moss-covered poetry and singing songs of long ago. Many of these recitations and songs had never been heard by most of the younger revelers. The junk tossing continued until the villain was forced to use an umbrella in order to maintain his immaculate appearance which had remained unrufiled throughout the evening. The end came too soon and we were reluctantly brought back to the realm of reality. As the crowd was passing slowly from those pleasant surroundings many words of commendation were heard about the cast and about all those who made the event possible. llS61 By JAMES MCGILL Hello, folks! Here we are! Was West Night's fifth annual boat ride a success? I'1l say it wasg in fact, all the boat rides since 1927 have been a financial success. Formerly, money was raised by a series of six dances during the year for the publication of the Annual. However, for the last four years theater parties and boat rides have generously supplied the necessary funds. The boat ride of Saturday evening, April 4, 1931, is now only a memory, but it will go down in our history of social events as one of the most pleasant rides West Night has ever had. The committee composed of Charles Wiebold, John Henkel, Clifford Steinke, William Leng, George Boehringer, Frank Michael, Norman Michael, and Edwin Rudder certainly worked hard to make this 1931 event a success. The occasion was very well advertised by thousands of throw-aways and bumper cards. It was gratifying to see the splendid support given by the entire stu- dent body and friends. The teachers of astronomy were delighted to see so many students take a sudden interest in the stellar system, which they viewed from the upper deck. The top deck was occupied by a large crowd, and those who couldn't find seats strolled about. No doubt chairs could have been sold at a profit. Every ,deck had its share of happy people, but most of che crowd gathered in the ballroom, which was filled to its capacity and was unsur- passed in the beautiful decorations. The myriad soft-colored, changing lights had a pleasing effect upon the throng as they danced to the alluring strains of the orchestra, which provided with untiring effort the most popular fox trots and waltzes.

The ideals, the plans, and the standards of yesterday must be bent, twisted, and molded into a form which will fit har- moniously into the lives of our modern youth of today. Useless items must be weeded out from time to time and replaced with better ma- terial. Economic conditions give rise to many problems which must be met or avoided. Perhaps this may be called progress. The very nature of our work has made it interesting and enjoyable. We have endeavored to publish an Annual which will bear evidence of new ideas and original thoughts, literary and art ability on the part of the students, and, above all, an Annual Worthy of the school which it represents. We feel, as we finish our task, that we are indebted to the following persons, and We take this opportunity to express our gratitude for the guidance, assistance, and help we have so richly enjoyed: To Mr. Franz, Mr. Schafer, and Mr. Blersch for their safe guidance and conservative counsel. They were always willing to help and co- operate with us. To Miss Niedermeyer for her unfailing dependability and devout enthusiasm in the literary work. Her generous help and interest were indispensable. To Mr. Vogel for the inspiration and direction of the Art Depart- ment. His influence is well exemplified in our book. To the Senior Class, the various school organizations, and other stu- dents for-their liberal and unselfish time and energy. To Mr. C. Stricker, Mr. E. Reister, Mr. Speller, and their respective organizations for their kindly consideration and hearty cooperation. We are very grateful for the manner in which this help was given, and We feel that, if the Echo,' of ,31 is accepted by our fellow Seniors and classmen as a book Worthy of them and our Alma Mater, our labors and efforts were surely not in vain.
