R E LEAEEA FREEMAN ROM the fall of 1921, The Class of Twenty-Seven has held an important place in the Westerville Junior-Senior High School. Entering with the enrollment of sixtyfflve we have steadily increased until at present we are near the eighty mark. And now we are looking forward to having the largest graduating class which has ever left the portals of W H. S. During the first two years of our junior High School career, although extremely pleasant, life was' somewhat uneventful because our timidity caused us to indulge in a half fearful, half reverent attitude of respect for upper classmen. However as Fresh' men we began to outfgrow our foolish ideas. This displeased our older brothers and sisters so much that they tried using the cool and soothing waters of Alum Creek in hope that they might check our advancement. Refreshed rather than daunted by their proceeding, we elected Dorothy Schrader as President, Walter Clippinger as Vice' President and Bernice Wilson as Secretary-Treasurer. With these capable leaders at our head we indulged in sports, pushes and extrafcurricular activities. Last year we were Sophomores. Following the examples of previous years we elected oHicers: Bernice Wilson, Presidentg Jeanette Gantz, Vice-President: and Elsie Dellinger, Secretary-Treasurer. These, as their predecessors, proved to be capable of filling their positions. As Sophomores we were proud to be represented in every phase of athletics and extra-curricular activities. This spring we pass our fifth mile stone. We are ending the most eventful and colorful year of our high school experience. The fact that we have had fewer pushes than in other years does not mean that our class spirit is diminishing, rather it shows that our work is increasing. So occupied have we been that it is diflicult for us to realize that we have completed another year's work. Undoubtedly the high spot of high spots in our school life thus far was the junior-Senior banquet. Thus have we gone through the past live yearsg sometimes losing old members and at other times having new ones fill their places. The class of Twenty-seven- who has one more lap to run, e'er we have our history finished-e'er our high school work is done. -Lloyd Chapman ,27 - .gf '19 .- o +34 3 .x - xf T '- Wfvunq C-nu!

We chose Ernest Chcrrington for President, Dorothy Foster for VicefPresident, and Dorothea Flickinger for SecretaryfTreasurer, that year. We had three enjoyable pushes during the year, one at Helen Phelpls, one at Dorothy Johnston's and the other in the Science room at the Vine Street school building. The next year our oihcers were: President, Ray Kirkpatrick: Vice-President, Ruth Miller, Secretary-Treasurer, Charles Dew. In this class many new members were added to our number. We again had three pushes. Our school year was sad' dened by the death of one of our classmates, Hazel Wood. In our Freshman year we enjoyed four class socials and many other activities under the guidance of Charles Dew, Presidentg Margaret Bailey, VicefPresident, and Evelyn Ridenour, Secretaryffreasurer. This year another great sorrow came to us in the death of Ernest Flower. This year there has been more work and less play than in former years. How- ever, as our work grows harder, we are the more willing to try to keep up our good record we have thus far maintained, both in studies and extrafcurricular activities. -Margaret Asire '28 -elif 33 -- Q34 ' ' ll - l 5. 3 nl DPIMN-pf.

Their eager faces were turned toward the vessel that was to be the scene of their activities for twelve long years. Some were clinging to their mother's hands, while other brave little souls marched fearlessly along as if starting to school was the most common of occurrences. just nine of those who started have weathered the storms of that journey: Bertha Campbell, Ruth Collier, Ralph Flickinger, Paul Hance, Gladys Miller, Audra Hursey, Louis Weinland, Harold Wohlleber, and Kathryn Gantz. Qur pilot for the first year of our voyage was Miss Acton. It was she who started us safely on our way, guiding us with a firm yet gentle hand, she who initiated us into the mysteries of numbers, reading, spelling and writing, We made cunning designs with pegs and grains of corn, and when the weather was bad and we could not go out on deck, Miss Acton allowed us to play that fascinating game of squirrel. lt was so much fun, we were really glad when it rained. Swiftly the days went by until May came bringing with it the promise of three glorious months of vacation. Then September came, and the beginning of new ex' periences for us. Miss Acton was not our captain this year but we had Miss Smith who proved to be just as kind as Miss Acton. In this year two class members joined us: Florence Cruit and Louise Noble, who have spent the remaining eleven years with us. Our play lessened and we worked a little harder this year, but it was an enjoyable one. ln our third year we had Miss Landon for our captain. Perhaps the most enf joyable times that year were spent playing store. We had paper money which looked very real, and we were allowed to go to the grocery store and purchase articles. Our ship stopped long enough to take on three passengers this year: Ruth Bailey, Marian jones, and Dorothy Bishop. They seemed to enjoy our company, for they have been with us ever since. During the fourth year of our voyage, Miss James was our pilot. By this time we had a wonderful store of knowledge and could recite without a pause, an island is a body of land entirely surrounded by water. But this was not all we could do, we worked long division problems and could spell hard words like hphysiolf ogy. In fact the state of our culture was such that the whole class could rise, iile to the front of the room and recite Lincoln's Gettysburg Address in unison with correct punctuation and expression. This year, our class showed their patriotism by making an afghan for the hospitals in France, the boys furnishing the yarn and the girls knitting the blocks. Ralph Gibson joined us this year, perhaps that had an effect upon our unusual brilliancy. -.,.,j.f 40 Ea..- 4..?1,?, .Asif-.' V.

'V lvliss Elliot was our captain in the iifth year of our voyage. Three events stand out in this memorable year. The first was an operetta, Midsummer Eve, for which several of our boys turned goblins. On St. Valentine day we had a Valentine box and party. This was the year we learned to say by heart Abou Ben Adam. Our imaginations ran wild and we had a vivid picture of an angel writing in a book of gold. Florence Lincoln and LeVere Breden joined our crew this year. We had a dreadful time the sixth year of our cruise as the sea was very rough. First, just as we had gotten acquainted with our new pilot, Miss Moses, she was com- pelled to leave us and Ivlrs. Burton took her place. During her sojourn our conduct was not what it could have been, for we were trying to her patience. Mrs. Burton was succeeded by Mrs. Charles and she had better success. Miss Moses finally returned and peace and order reigned again. The most exciting event this year was the operetta 'Black and the Bean Stalk in which several of our members took part. Three new members were added to our enrollment, Helen Weaston, James Harris and Regi- nald Dixon. We attribute their arrival as the cause of wearing out three teachers. lt was with fear in our hearts that we started our seventh year. It was very confusing at iirst. The use of bells was strange and we felt much like fire horses must feel, whenever we heard a bell we jumped and ran. It was in our seventh year that parties were renamed pushes and we felt that this added to our importance very much. Cne of the most memorable events of our school life was the push that year with Miss Iwloses and Mrs. Noble as chaperons. This year Marguerite Knapp. Thelma Benedict, Fannie Davidson and Dwight Hanawalt were enrolled. By the time we were ready to enter the eighth year of our journey we were thoroughly accustomed to our new school life and really worked hard. During this year we paid very little attention to social activities and spent most of the year in studying. Ruth Huelf, Upal Carpenter and Robert Keyes joined us this year, Although we had become accustomed to High School, some of the palyful up' perfclassmen taunted us about being Freshmen and we were frequently referred to as being green. We became quite sociable and held three pushes Becoming more daring we elected class officers with Florence Cruit, Presidentg Louis Weinland, VicefPresi- dent, and, Ruth Bailey, Secretary-Treasurer. We were even so bold as to choose class colors-Hscarlet and gray. Many were enrolled that year: Russell Adams, Glendora Barnes, Evelyn Edwards, Vera Finley, Sarah Goldsmith, Lawrence Hall, Margaret Poole, Elsie Bennett, Mary Plummer, Harold Schneider and Karl Schott. In our tenth year we had a rollicking good time, having two pushes, one in the gymnasium and one at the home of Evelyn Edwards. We again elected oiiicers: President, Louis Weinlandg VicefPresident, Reginald Dixong Secretary-Treasurer, Walter Shelley. Louise Frost and Stanley Martin were enrolled as class members. Toward the end of the year the Seniors deemed us important enough to usher at Baccalaureate. Accordingly, some of our members decked themselves in their best and contrived to look very sophisticated at the inspiring ceremony. We entered our Junior year with the determination to work hard, have fun 41 jg..- . , .,.-'1-'L, 1,:v-73-.' .. . fi - 'J 1' 4 1 w:!-- X rx' -tZ'i:sv.:,-we f' J ' , A-f t 5 K- . .- - .,,,. J. . I, ., ,p .:,,, s 1 -v. .g-,fn .,.. . .1 A ., l-nel-:T 1 .--, . and make ourselves noticed. We succeeded in accomplishing all three purposes. The Demoschylus Club was organized and the juniors were well represented, the presif dent and vicefpresident coming from our ranks. Our social life was not neglected for we had a push at Finley's, one at Jesse Miller's and the JuniorfSenior Halloween party. We elected class officers at the beginning of the year: Louise Noble, President, Regif nald Dixon, VicefPresidentg Glendora Barnes, SecretaryfTreasurer. There is one privilege allowed juniors that is anticipated through all the years of High School- that of being excused from school for two whole days to prepare for the junior' Senior Banquet. Three new members joined us this year, John McBride, Harriett Pinney and Arthur Brubaker. Our Senior year has been a busy one and one that will long be remembered. Vv'e had our share of fun for with the juniors we had a Hallowe'en party and in the fall a weiner roast at Sarah Goldsmith's. We have contributed much to the school in athletics, being well represented on the gridiron, basketball floor and track. We have not only furnished athletes but leading musicians. Our oflicers for the year were LeVere Breden, President, Kathryn Gantz, VicefPresidentg Glendora Barnes, Secretary-Treasurer. Three members decided to finish their careers in the class of '26, Earl Miller, Emmor Widdoes and Francis Long. The only event to mar the complete happiness of our twelve years in W. H. S. was the death of one of our dearly loved class members, Ruth Cheek. We have felt her loss greatly in our activities, for no one can take her place. As we near the port and realize that we are now finishing the Senior and last year of our journey we grow more serious, for with thoughts of graduation come thoughts of the future, and we wonder if we have made the most of the wonderful opportunity afforded us by this school of learning and if we have really put forth our best efforts. We realize that what we have been able to accomplish here, will deter- mine in a measure what we will accomplish in after years. Perhaps we have not always tried our hardest, perhaps our actions have not been without censure, perhaps we have failed to show visibly our appreciation of the interest manifested in our activities by our instructors, but down deep in our hearts there is gratitude for all kindnesses shown us. Thus it is with sorrow in our hearts that the class of '26 bids farewell to the halls of dear old VU. H. S. Q. -Kathryn Gantz 42 i -uv-,i I HJ' Wh ' 8, ,- ' WA . x 1 ,D , -,Lev-'figs- ,L Virg il.

U 4 Miss Gladys Miller is sailing for Europe today, when she , expects to study the paintings of famous masters in order that she may be more capable of filling her honorable position as car' toonist for the College Humor. She is accompanied by her secref tary Marguerite Knapp and a traveling companion Margaret Poole. Prof. Walter Shelley, of Harvard, has given up his Political ' Science classes and expects to devote his entire time to the teaching I . of history. fMany of those who listen will doubtless remember X his interest in history while in High Schoolj f Strange things will happen. jesse Miller, the worlds ' ' lightfweight boxer was recently married to Sarah Goldsmith. nl After much quizzing this happy couple admitted that they had wi V g been deeply interested in each other all through High School X 5 S though they had well succeeded in keeping it hidden. Louise Noble has lately been made head of the Scrub Women's Union of New York City.

The Mummy TRCLLING down an alley in New York, 'LRed Colburn, a tramp in the eyes of the world, was singing softly to himself. Presently Red found himself walk' ing on Seventyfiirst Street. Here looking into the shop windows, he slowly made his way south towards the center of the city. Red seemed to be looking for something. Suddenly he slowed down and pausing in front of a small antique shop, took from his pocket a torn and dirty letter. It was addressed to jean C. Colburn, Hipf podrome Hotel, New York. Swiftly he scanned its contents, folded it and replaced it in his pocket. A smile formed on the lips of Reds tanned face. Swiftly noting the location of the shop, he walked on down the street. Turning into another alley he hastened to the back of an old ware house. But L'Red did not again appear. Instead a tall, elderly gentleman, swinging a cane and smoking a cigar, hurried out of the ware house up the old alley. Summon' ing a taxi at the first street he was carried to the Hippodrome Hotel. A clerk greeted him as he went on into the dining room. His breakfast over, he took a taxi and after a five minute ride was stopped in front of the small shop before which he had stood only a few hours ago. Paying the driver and telling him to wait, he entered the little shop. It was a curious and strange place. Everywhere were busts and images of ancient heroes and characters. He was startled by a voice behind him. L'Is there anything I can do for you, sir? Turning he beheld the strangest human being he had ever seen. He was a Chinaman with the eyes and nose of a hawk, not over five feet tall, and wrinkled with age. He was a hideous sight as he stood there, his eyes closed to mere slits and his arms folded. Answering the man's query, Williams replied: I don't know exactly. I was just looking. He walked around the shop and picking up objects, examined them. He seemed to be looking for something he could not und. A look of disappointment came over his face? Telling the man that he guessed he would not buy anything just then, he turned to leave. As he turned he suddenly stopped short. His eyes had fallen on an object, which before had escaped his notice. It was the image of a small golden mummy. Summoning the clerk he asked him the price of the mummy. It is not for sale, replied the Chinaman. After offering the man a huge sum for it and being refused again, Williams hurried back to the hotel. There he sent a telegram at once. It read: Have found mummy. Send Brown and Count on next train. Will be at station. jean. Williams next went to police headquarters. There, upon presenting a worn -. sql 48 Ea .- 2:1-sas. ' Wh ' .1 A -.5 5 . eta .ip , .. W , ,, Jo ---.- .

Williams left the station with a smile on his face. Tonight, if everything went alright would be his night, his victory! It was dusk when Williams left the hotel. He hurried along the streets and turned into the alley out of which he had come that morning. Proceeding to the rear of the ware house, he entered. At this point let us go ahead, say two hours. Leaning over the edge of a large freight box was a tramp with nery red hair. The eight o'clock train from Boston had just arrived and, glancing over the faces of the crowd that had gotten off of the train, Red Colburn suddenly straightened and pushed his way to the side of an elderly man. As he touched his shoulder, LRed' Colburn came from the lips of the man whom we have called Brown. Brown introduced him to his companion, the Count of Ivlarconi. Acknowledging the introduction, L'Red gave Brown some instructions and left them saying he would meet them at the appointed place at eleven o'clock. Down town in a small antique shop on Seventy-first street, a small, wrinkled Chinaman was standing at a desk in the rear of the building. In his hands was a small golden mummy. With a knife he was prying on the bottom of it. Suddenly the image fcll into two pieces and with trembling fingers the Chinaman picked from one half of it a large Kimberly diamond. After examining it he put it in its place and resealed the image. The old man had just finished when the clock struck twelve. Suddenly he straightened. There, standing not ten feet from him in the shadow of the curtain, was a tramp with fiery red hair. The Chinaman, recovering himself started for the door, but in the doorway was a man wearing a U. S. Secret Service badge. Almost instantly the room was filled with policemen. L'Well, Sing Lee, the game is up. We have hunted the world over for the stolen diamond of Marconi Castle. I now take great pleasure in restoring it to its rightful owner, Count Marconi. Brown then glanced around the room. Red, he called. -There was no answer. At this moment his eyes fell on a piece of paper pinned to the curtain. The note, fastened by a Secret Service badge, read: Brown: The reward is yours, I don't need it. Tell the Chief that if he needs me again I am at his service. Until that time I shall do as I have always done in the past, just wander. I will keep in touch with him. 'Redi Colburn. The next morning, if one would have been riding along the South Baltimore road, one would have seen a tramp with fiery red hair, strolling along singing. Redi' was happy for he was doing what he loved best--just going! -Margaret Bailey '28 -. gg 49 ..- wg X-4: -141 ..-Qs.. f . .

We may well be proud of our band. It was uniformed this year, largely through the efforts of persons interested in music and some of the mothers of the community. It was an inspiring sight to see the band in full uniform manoeuvre on the football field before the game and was a helpful factor in bringing so many victories to W. H. S. A concert was given in March. The difliculty of the selections proved their ability. The Dramatics Club is a comparatively new organization, this being its second year. This year the club presented three onefact plays with great success, due to the efforts of Miss McBride. The plays were Three Pills in a Bottle, Where But in America and L'Two Crooks and a Lady. The characterizations were exceedingly well portrayed by members of the club. Gur Girl Reserves is the youngest organization in W. H. S., having been or' ganized in April. Although new, the benefits of the club can be foreseen. There has been a need for some sort of organization that would care for the physical, educational, spiritual and social welfare of the High School girls and this club fills the need. If its work continues in the future, as it was begun, it will be one of the main factors of Westerville High School. The Hi-Y Club has much the same purpose as the Girl Reserves it fills the need for spiritual, social and physical activities of the High School boy. The club was especially of service at Christmas time. Clothing and food were contributed by the High School students and distributed among needy families of the community by the HifY boys. The boys have given many social affairs during the year. The Junior High Glee Club is especially beneficial to the Junior High girls. There they may receive training that will not only benefit the individual girl but will provide excellent material for the Senior Club as well. The Senior High Glee Club. in conjunction with the Junior Club and several boys presented an elaborate opcretta entitled The Gipsy Rover. Under the efficient direction of Miss Swepstone and M1'. Shaw it was a complete success. The High School Orchestra furnished accompaniment for the operetta and has proven its worth at many other high school functions. A weekly paper was started this year which has been very successful. Its up' tofthefniinute news, features, and jokes have been appreciated by every member of W. H.

Long hikes and swims broke up the monotony of the rollfblocking and tackling. A trip home at some time during the week helped to keep up the spirits of the twentyfhve boys during these long, hot six days of hard and tiresome practices. These practices helped the boys to be in fine condition for the irst few games of the season. When school opened Sept. 8, the team started their rgular practices on the Otterbein field with only four of the seven eligible letter men to fight on the red and white eleven. They were Duncan, Dixon, J. Miller and E. Miller. After three weeks of hard and steady practices the Red and White squad was rounded into shape, by Coach Parks, for the Hrst game of the W. H. S. schedule. GAHANNA 0-WESTERVILLE 47 The 1926 football season was opened by a win over Gahanna on our home field. The game was very interesting although the score would indicate otherwise. This was Kinsell's first game with W. H. S. and showed his ability by snagging some long passes and making long runs to the end zone. The team had not yet started its hard Eghting. CENTERBURG 0-WESTERVILLE O This was another interesting game although much of the time one was unable to tell one player from another on account of the muddy Held. The boys fought hard but this was their first game on a bad day and they were unable to cross the scoring line. This game was played at home on the Otterbein field. MT. VERNON 7-WESTERVILLE O This was the only game lost by the Westerville eleven the entire season. This was also the only game lost in the Central Ohio League by the NVesterville boys. They fought hard but were unable to overcome Ivlt. Vernon's lead in the second half. Sevf eral times Westerville threatened Mt. Vernon's goal but the Orange and Black line held the Red and White warriors for downs. TRADE O-WEsTERv1LLE 14 This game was played on a very muddy tield. The two touchdowns were scored by Klee Duncan. Trade was an extremely large and heavy team, but the boys with the red and white striped jerseys were quick and fast and at no time did they slacken their attack on the Trade team. NEWARK O-WESTERVILLE 14 In what proved to be a very interesting game, the Red and White team once proved itself victor by defeating the heavy Newark team by a score of 14 to O. In the first quarter the spectators were thrilled by one of Jess Miller's speedy runs that netted the first touchdown for Westerville. Later in the game Klee Duncan per' -. 65' - THE SIEARCHLJIGHT Nineteen Hundred Twenty-six 3 PUBUSHED BY THE CLASS OF IQ26 WESTERVILLE HIGH SCHOOL WESTERVILLE OHIO - arf 3 .- ,. . . . -1 , '.

LANCASTER O-WESTERVILLE 7 With both teams fighting to the finish and with Lancaster trying to seek bitter revenge for her former defeats from W. H. S. the Red and White team was once more triumphant. This game was probably one of the closest of the season. In the flrst half Lancaster made many long gains the local team lighting hard to keep the foe from their territory. The half ended with Westerville only a foot from scoring. In the second half Westerville made its only touchdown which was bucked over by J. Miller. COSHOCTON 12-WESTERVILLE 13 In a steady downfall of rain the Red and White eleven triumphed in their last conference gridiron siege. Although Coshocton outfplayed W. H. S. in the second and third quarters the Westerville boys shoved a victory from one of the best teams in the League. Kinsell and Miller showed up especially well. With the goal posts thirtyffive yards away, Kinsell smashed his way through the line for a touchdown. The goal point was made by one of Miller's end runs. Coshocton made theu touch' downs in the second and third quarters but they failed to make their points which they attempted by passes. LONDON O-WESTERVILLE 7 - A good crowd followed the team to London where the last game of the season was played. A special car was scheduled for the entire squad, the band and the loyal rooters of W. H. S. This was not a League game and did not count in Westerville's Central Ohio League standing, but it was a hard game with the Red and White ag' gregation stopping the mighty plunges of the London fullback. The W. H. S. eleven after threatening London's goal several times finally pushed over their one and only touchdown, making the extra point. Near the end of the game the spectators ex' pected the group from Westerville to add six more points to their score but the London ends repeatedly broke in on Jesse's end runs and held W. H. S. for downs ending the game. The successful season was partly due to the faithful cooperation of the second team. ff Much of the success of the 1926 football season is to be attributed to David R. Parks, coach and friend of the W. H. S. Red and White gridders. A banquet was given by the Chamber of Commerce of Westerville to the W. H. S. football squad to show their appreciation of the hard work put forth to make the 1926 football season successful. A word of appreciation is due H. O. Weaston for his services to the team and band. We wish to thank Otterbein College for their kind cooperation in providing a place for Westerville High School football games. -R eil 66 E+ -- if-S33-., .. 3-.gp ., I-ps. any-,., 8 A 1 5.,:' - sg 1.23 , '- 1 ' 14'--I ' - A 'f '-:-I'-' '-' -fi-'Fr fgirf , 1... ...Q-,A if 'ivan-if wr' 7 A HERMAN SANDFORD Manager Oot was unable to play on the team this year but loved the sport so well that he took the position of Manager so he could stay with the team. He sometimes filled positions during practices and was always ready to serve his team mates. EARL MILLER .Quarterback Curly could Hll two positions on the team. He was taken from his place at center and put in charge of the W. H. S. eleven at quarterback after the first few games. Miller was given the place of center on the Central Ohio Conference Team. This is Miller's last year in NV. H. S. and his place will be hard to lill next year. REGINALD DIxoN End Dick made his third letter on the NV. H. S. gridiron this year. This is Dick's last year and although there will be other ends to take his place on the line next year the team will miss his steady lighting. Dixon played quarterback in the forepart of the football season. DALE KINSELL Fullback Kinney is a Sophomore this year. He is very well known for his long runs through center and his speedy end runs. Dale will be among the best material for next year. We are hoping Kinney has good luck in his next two years of football. WARREN DUNCAN Halfback This is Klee's second year of football. Alf though Duncan is little and light he is very speedy and full of fight. He has a way of picking hard passes out of the air and pivoting his way through the line. RONALD FULLER Guard This is Ron's first year of football but he has still another year in which to show again his ability to 611 a position on the Red and White line. --si 67 ya ucv'-ax. ,,,,,.,, . ., E1 'rf T :rs , A l l 3:-'wr ' F .. 1:2' ' I' L46 . 1- .1 ,.,, - i v...'i. -0.1-f v.'.,':g:f.

The local girls were defeated 13 to 5. Although Center Village had the advantage of a good many more weeks of practice the W. H. S. team gave promise of something good, january 'Znd the second game was played at home with the fast Munk Floral team from Columbus. W. H. S., outclassed, showed lots of fight but lost to the visitors 38 to 9. Bliss College was the next opponent and also victor because, on January Sth they defeated the local girls 29 to 14. This was a hard fought game and one of the most interesting played on the home lloor this season. ..... . The Grandview game, January Zird, was the best and most exciting game ol' the whole year. For the Westerville girls made a come back of which everyone was justly proud, and defeated the snappy Grandview team by a score of 35 to 34. The next week the W. H. S. team went to Ivlarysville. Here they played a hard game but, fighting to avenge the defeats of former years the Marysville girls rc- doubled their elforts and won 17 to 10. The second outfofftown game, February 13th, was with Coshocton. The score itself tells the story or part of it for the score 1944 can't tell the amount of fight that was shown. In the Franklin County Tournament, W. H. S. girls played two games, the first with Gahanna. W. H. S. showed the same old fight and determination which has always characterized a W. H. S. team, and won 1848. The second game, with Bexley, was a well played game, both teams showing good team work. However, when the final whistle blew the score was 13 to 6 in favor of Bexley. -. if 74 .- DORTHA BISHOP Bid Biddy Bishop who has played guard on the W H S ttam for the last couple of years. was elected captain of the 1975 1976 squad but because she carried Freshman College work at Otterbein. was ineligible She was greatly missed on the floor but OPAL CARPENTER Carp Opal was the only letter girl on this team. having won letters the two previous years Opal played forward and was a pretty sure hot She did not hit her stride until the last part of the year when she showed up to better adxanta e Cpal was act' GLEIXUORA BARNES Bamesy' This was Glendoras first and last year with the W H S team for she is a Senior this year.
