VUE are the one example after which all of you should pattern your high school career. Thou shalt have no other inspira- tion before thee. 2. Thou shalt not make any graven image of your teachers, or any likeness of Reed S. Johnston. Hauncy Kline. Otis Flook. or John Francis Knave, for they can see all things. and in the act threof thou shalt be caught and duly punished. 3. Thou shalt not bow down thyselves to any Sophomores, nor serve them: for we the Seniors are a proud and jealous body. vis- iting the iniquities of the fathers upon the third and fourth generations of the Juniors who hate us: and showing mercy unto mil- lions of them that love us and keep our com- mandments. 4. Thou shalt not use the name of any Senior member in vain. nor shall you connect it with any vulgar language for the Seniors will not hold him guiltless that taketh their name in vain. 5. Remember Senior Tramp Day and keep it holy. very holy. Five days in each week shalt thou labor and do all thy work: but the Tuesday after the lirst Monday in May is Seniors day, in it thou shalt do noth- ing but raise whoopee: thou. thy brother. and thy sister and all thy companions who are urgder classmen of Westerville High school. For 2159 days the Seniors work hard and grope in earnest for a higher education: but on Senior day they break loose and forget that there ever was a school or a teacher. Wherefore the Seniors blessed tramp day and hallowed it. 6. Handshake thy teachers and practice teachers that thy days may not be long in the school which your superiors. the Seniors, have made pleasant for thee. 7. Thou shalt not paint Abraham Lin- coln. 8. Thou shalt not iill the gas pipes with water. 9. Thou shalt not put fire crackers in the waste paper baskets and then ignite them. But if any one should commit these acts, thou shalt not run to Super. Johnston bear- ing witness against them. for let him speak first who has not sinned himself. 10 Thou shalt not covetl thy schoolmates XV, thou shalt not covet thy schoolmates dates. nor his political pull, nor his wit, nor his physics grade nor any thing which is thy schoolmates.

There is one red letter given to the best lineman and one to the best back- Held man in football who are chosen by the squad. While in basket ball there is only one red letter which is given to the person receiving the most points. The points are calculated by voting done by the squad after each game for the best and next best player of the evening. Then the votes are counted at the end of the season and the one receiving the most votes is awarded the red letter. To obtain a red letter in Track you must break a record.

Q ' ff 1 I .W OUR NEW SCHOOL Bllilflillg Program for the Westerville Public Schools DURING the early part of the year nineteen hundred twenty-nine the Wester- ville Board of Education secured Dr. T. C. Holy of the Educational Research De- partment, Ohio State University, to make a survey of Yvesterville School District to determine whether there there was need for a School Building Program and if so just what this program should consist of. Dr. Holy made this survey and reported that a new grade building should be built in the south part of town and that an addition should be built to the present High School Building. The Board, acting upon Dr. Holy's report, asked the voters of the school district to support a bond issue of xts125.0o0.0o in order that the children of lVesterville may have better school facilities. The voters supported this bond issue by a vote of almost two to one. Up to the time of writing this article the land for the grade building has been purchased on Hiawatha Ave., the architect, Mr. Thomas lVlcLaughlin of Lima, has been employed, the plans for both grade and the addition to the High School have been accepted, and the contracts will be let May 23rd. The Grade Building will consist of six class rooms. a recreation room. office. teachers, room, and library with the posiliility of expanding it into a fourteen or fifteen room building. The addition to the High School will consist of. a study hall with a capacity of l00 pupils, a shop, a science room, increased facilities for the commercial department, boys, locker room and if funds will permit a girls' locker room and a cafeteria which will talxe care of T30 pupils. The High School addition is to be completed by October first and the Grade building by January first, 1931. qi? so .fll.,gii?SXX fa? di, j c' I 4g...i,,5,5gi1.5d' S.. sb .59 V Q I I N - .V Ar Z rf- ww uv -12' vdlliggi X i , , 7 f'fW'ixi3-W5 1 Lxfx If I f I li Lf F s QQ QQ1 lFamQnuu.ll1t'y fi H F ,J, ' , P .

She was intent and de- termined during her high school days to get the most out of school she could. Edith was very efficient in this line and gained a high mark as a reward. Through her kindness she has many friends. She has a great many activities and also holds down a job after school which takes a good deal of her time. With the exception of a few it is all that most of us can do to get fair grades without holding half her jobs.

She is a student who likes all phases of life and she's in for any good sport. lt might also be added that she is the only girl in the class who has undertaken the study of Physics. She has a wide circle of friends, being well-liked by all those who know her. Much is expected from both Edith Mae and Nlary Alice in the future. -7- . Q, rd 5 il? I I All , 'FEM' .

And a more enthusiastic class than that of '31 never entered Westerville High School. If we could look into the future, perhaps in our class of young enthusiasts, a goodly number of geniuses might be found if this adage holds true. And who can say that we have lacked ability in our school work? There are some who have made high averages and who may be called students in the real sense of the word. It is needless to say that the Junior class has also pro- duced its share of fine athletes. Among our girls as Well as our boys We have had some fine basketball timber. In the history of a class the quality and number of athletes have always been important factors. A fun-loving nature prevails among our members and we have had our share of fun. Of course, in our remaining High School life we are anticipating lots more of it. Next to the virtue, the fun in this World is what we can least spare. Both our ofiicers and class members have shown a loyalty to our class and our school-a trait which no class should lack. With enthusiasm. ability, fun, and an unfailing loyalty to our High School we have had a happy combination of all that is good in a class. MARGARET BURTNER, '31, 'Hr C-T N-.

Sarah Kathryn Kelser HE Sophomore Class entered the Junior-Senior High School in 1926 with an enrollment of seventy. Through the first two years of Junior High School, we followed the example of preceeding classes by electing class oflicers and taking part in the various extra-curricular activities of the High School. ln our Freshman year we elected Mildred Hoos for President, Kathryn Moore for Vice President and Virginia Norris for Secretary-Treasurer. That year we had two letter girls on the Basketball squad, one of whom was elected captain for this year. Being Freshmen, we were very proud of this distinction. We were also well represented in both Glee Clubs and other activities of the High School. This year we entered High School with an enrollment of over seventy, and the class of '32 is still better represented in athletics and other activities than last year. We have always had reason to be proud of our class and we are sure that in the two remaining years of High School we shall have still more reason to be proud of it.

Class History 11930 E, the Kachiquels. of the Kachiquel Tribe, were assembled around the council fire. Big Chief Baxter had an important problem to put be- fore the Indians this evening. The small children must be trained so that they may carry on the Indian traditions. A guide must be found to in- struct the children. The chief finally decided upon Princess Hill. for she loved small children. In this year we were taught by our beloved princess to read and write. We read about Mother Nature and her children. We were overjoyed when once more we were free, to roam in the big woods, our natural selves again. But we learned that our trouble would begin anew when the corn was ripe. This time we were to have a new princess, or, perhaps two of them if we were good. Finally we found ourselves back in school with the Princesses Meeker and Heil. They proved themselves worthy in time. The third year we began to get more civilized due to our teachers. Prin- cesses Leah and Helen Clapham. XVe also learned how to write with ink. ,The fourth year we had as our leaders, Miss Drum and Miss Johnston. We met many difficult foes which had to be overcome before we could progress further on our way to fame. The fifth year brought many great changes into our lives. We moved our dwelling to the Methodist Church to continue our studies. We had many wild experiences. Just ask the Princesses Beaver and Turney. Our last year before we grew up was guided by Princesses Beaver and Moses, This was the year we studied Europe very carefully, for you see that Princess Moses was going to Europe that summer. We entered upon our seventh year of learning in the new High School Building. We ceased to act like young Indians. We found it necessary to change our garb and ways to those more suitable to our positions now attained. We were almost dizzy from watching the swarming crowds and were busily craning our necks to find the room number, so that we could rest our weary bodies. All of the older ones left us to our own devices and we had a very hard time. Our class leaders were Lyla Newman, President: Fred Norris, Vice President, and Robert Barnes, Secretary-Treasurer. Under our faithful leader- ship we managed to pull through without leaving too many behind. We had our first push and behaved accordingly. Our next year was more or less a continuation of our good times. We were led by Clarence Dixon, President: Dwight Barnes, Vice President, and Hugh Glover was entrusted with all money matters. Our biggest event this year was the coasting party. We were now ready to start on the greenest year in History, for we were Freshmen. This was a very memorable year. We boasted of an enrollment of one hundred and nine, the largest Freshman Class to enter Westerville High gif ,.nPfi:g,'?3fg' sea A 'X .M-v J V f' T are I pg, fr School. We were led by Gladys Patton, President: Raymond Lust, Vice President, and Dorothy Grabill as Secretary-Treasurer. We tried our luck with Algebra and were mostly unlucky. The Sophomore year was the beginning for a new Chief--Reed S. John- ston. This was the year that the phrase Pass out in your regular order originated. Our main obstacle was World History. During our course, Mrs. Clary informed us that the story about George Washington and the cherry tree was false. All of our hopes were dissolved for the time being. But as we knew more this year than we ever will again, we finally decided that we knew enough anyway. Our leaders through all these trials and tribulations were: Ralph Sherwood. President: Robert Barnes, Vice President, and Hugh Glover, Secretary-Treasurer. A very memorable year was the Junior year, led by Hugh Glover, Presi- dent, and Fred Norris, Secretary-Treasurer. We finally survived the stormy waters of time. This year we started out right by having a Junior-Senior Hallowe'en Party. Then next came the Junior Square Dance. We were the first class to hold a dance in the High School. This year some of our humble tribe decided to try French. Part of them wished they never had seen it, but those who stuck were amply repaid. Our last year in High School was the happiest in our life, for we were now Seniors, and befitting we chose Dwight Barnes, President, and Fred Bale, Secretary-Treasurer. The ones who have stayed with us through all twelve years are: Lucien Adams, Helen Bailey, Francis Collier, Hugh Glover, Dor- othy Grabill, John Hance, and Fred Norris. After all of this is the closing chapter, Commencement For we have achieved our goal and are ready to meet the battles of life. GLADYS PATTON, DoRoTHY GRABILL. 'Nr ak Prophecy HUNDER rolled, lightning flashed, and great trees crashed across the roadway. A blinding deluge of rain made vision almost impossible. As the doctor drove along the rutted country road he ruminated as to whether he should have both his eggs for breakfast fried on the same side or one on one side and one on the other. Suddenly the motor of his car sput- tered. then wheezed into silence. Out of gas. Lowering a window in order to see better, he peered around on all sides. On his right he saw a stately mansion: on his left a lowly hut. With no hesitation the doctor chose the mansion. Going up to it he knocked on the door, and after waiting a few minutes, the door was opened slowly and silently. An old fossalized gray- beard stood in the doorway and bade him enter. ' After talking to him a few minutes. the doctor realized that the old man before him was an eccentric old inventor. Desiring to show him one of his latest inventions. the old gentleman led the physician into a large room and indicated a huge machine. He explained that it was a television apparatus by which he could see anywhere in the world. The doctor at once perceived the possibilities of such a machine and asked the old man if it would be possible to see what the members of the Class of '30 of Westerville High School were doing. The old inventor assured him that it would be possible and that he would demonstrate his invention. He turned a switch and started twisting dials on the odd mechanism. Faint images appeared on a large screen and soon they could make out a pompous wedding procession marching to the altar to the tune of The Wed- ding of the Painted Doll, which was played on the organ by Dorothy Grabill. Imagine the surprise of the doctor on seeing that the bride and groom were Helen Bailey and Jack Sprecher! The minister, Fred Norris, solemnly pronounced the marriage ceremony. Edith Mae Norris. his wife sat smiling in one of the front pews. Edwin Hessler held down the job of best man. Ruth Phillips, Helen Krebs and Neva Williams acted as bridesmaids. Myrna Alspach sang a vocal solo entitled The Prisoner's Song. After noting that these were all the members of the Class of '30 present at the wedding, the old man twisted the dials on the machine. Blurred images appeared, quickly becoming more distinct and soon the two men were able to identify the figure of a man running as Dwight Barnes. He was being pur- sued by a monstrous cop, who was recognized as Denver Scott. Officer Scott finally succeeded in capturing the fleety Barnes, and as the inventor followed them with his television, the two watchers saw the officer and his prisoner enter Sing Sing. from which place Barnes had escaped. As the turnkey. Clyde Gor- such, led Barnes to his cell they passed a cell in which were Hugh Glover and William Rhodes, notorious murderers and cut-throats, who, after years of pur- suit had Hnally been apprehended and prosecuted for their numerous misdef meanors at Westerville High School. Deploring the tragic outcome of such promising young men, the old in- ventor changed the scene. and before their eyes appeared Richard Andrus. who was exchanging violent French with the majority of his harem. namely, Gladys Anderson. Esther Baker, Elsie Fadley, Mildred Harris and Ursule Disbennett. This image faded and there floated into view a most miserable object. lt was hardly recognizable as Fred Bale, who, because of a great disappointment Lf ' -:Hs get '. 1 x W lf The Searchlight Publication ol: Senior Class Westerville High School Westerville, Ohio 1930 T I bif- el 4 'YES' We sci in love when Virginia Zimmer threw him over for Dow Lamson, had taken to opium. Another and more happy scenes now came before them and they saw Willard Krebs and Raymond Detrick dining in the Ritz-Carlton, which had been taken over by Lloyd Ballenger. The two were slinging their usual barn- yard line. Detrick was telling Krebs' that he was a widely known civil en- gineer. and that he had just returned home on a vacation from his present oc- cupation, which was constructing a series of bridges in the Sahara Desert. Krebs came back with even a bigger one, saying that he had a position in one of the largest greenhouses in the East, and that his only duty was that of picking buds off of century plants. In this same beer-joint where they were eating, a redf hot jazz orchestra was striking up the latest dance hits under the able direction of Lucien Adams. Wishing to find out where the intellect of the Class of '30 had gone, the doctor and the inventor turned to Harvard University, where they were indeed surprised to see Doctor John Hance futilely attempting to beat the meaning of a diflicult medical term through the thick skull of R. C. Fowler, still a Fresh- man at that school. On the spacious campus of Harvard an old pencil peddler was noticed. On approaching, it was seen that George E. Parkinson had found an occupation in which he could make use of his marvelous voice. Desiring to see if there were any national heroes in that same illustrious class, the old man turned the dial again and a View of Arlington Cemetery ap- peared before their eyes. Three tombstones side by side were engraved with the names of Raymond Schick, Robert Barnes, and Roger Huhn. Under their names was described the method of their demise. They had been assassinated in Chicago while trying to uphold the Hi-Y standards of creating. maintaining. and extending high standards of Christian character throughout the schools and community of that city. Across the screen now flitted the images of several girls. They became more and more distinct and it was soon possible to see that they were Mary Alice Mark, Loma Mann, and Marguerite Buck. lt was rather diflicult to figure out what they were doing, but it finally occurred to the two watchers that these were Girl Reserves and that they were still following the gleam. Some- how they had never been able to catch it. A View of Neil Park, in Columbus, now came before the two men, A ball game was in progress. Francis Collier. playing right field for the Colum- bus Senators, had just mised a high fly, thereby aiding the Senators in main- taining their ever-present losing streak. The next scene showed Gladys Patton, on her knees, passionately be- seeching Daniel Kahler to marry her. After waiting twenty-five years for someone to propose to her, she had taken the initiative herself and was taking advantage of leap year. A frightful noise almost burst the eardrums of the listeners and they quickly glanced at the screen to ascertain the source of such an unearthly sound. They saw that a hog-calling contest was in progress on the farm of Raymond Karns. Helen Watson had just won the hog-calling championship of the United States. She had defeated by a narrow margin Doreen Sage. ln a speech after the contest, Helen declared her intentions of competing in the f U Olympics in that event. Eew present expressed any doubt that she would lose. A billboard suddenly passed into view. On it was an advertisement for the picture of the century Her Caveman Lover starring Vida Zimmer and Wendell Little. The picture was directed by: General Freeman. The next image showed Mildred Schneider, who. after making hobo-ing her life vocation. had just hopped a freight train. A scene in a foreign country appeared on the screen before the two watchers. Alan Schrader was seen taking the oath of office as President of Mexico. Immediate action followed. Raymond Lust. overcome by jealousy, being defeated in the election, hurled a blazing half-inch Hrecracker at his gracious majesty. As the firecracker exploded the great mind of the President gave way, and he sank into a swoon from which he never recovered. Raymond Lust was immediately seized by Clarence Dixon and Robert Noble, ensigns in the Mexican Navy, who rushed him off to the hoosegow. The picture now returned to the United States where a violent argument between a woman and a well dressed man was taking place. The woman was identified as Clara Schott, who was taking in washings, and she was arguing with Jerome Miller, a wealthy hide and harness man, who had kicked over the condition of one of the shirts he had given her to wash. Prom there the setting changed to a vast plain in Argentina. Off in the distance was an immense herd of cattle. Two horsemen separated from the mass and rode in pursuit of an escaping calf. As they came nearer, the figures of the riders became more and more familiar and were finally recognized as two robust cowgirls- Half Pint Hickman and Zilpha Shaw. Replacing this outdoor scene. a luxurious apartment now came into view on the screen of thc television. Reclining on a beautiful divan was an auburn- tressed lady. It was Edith Patrick, who had grown very wealthy as an artists' model while posing for advertisements of De Luxe soap. A bell abruptly sounded in her apartment and when Edith's maid answered the door, it was to admit a telegraph messenger. Cuarland Shorter, with a telegram for her mistress. Evidently Garland had continued in his old occupation as messenger-boy. The contents of the telegram seemed to have a startling effect on Edith. To the consternation of the two watchers they found that the reason for Edith's grief was that the telegram has said that Lucille Phillippi, Wilma Saling. and Lyda Schwind had been killed in Russia while preaching doctrines more drastic than even the Bolsheviki could stand. As this vision faded from the screen, the old inventor turned to the doctor and said. 'AWe11, that's all but one. Yes, the doctor responded, that's all but one. A'But, continued the physician, how the devil did you know that was all but one? Because I was a member of that class. l'm Nolan Alexander. James Sekinger, the doctor. at once began shaking hands. While talking of old times and of their many and various escapades while in old W. H. S.. the two immediately started for the cellar.

Forly eight CR f s Briar Rose HE operetta was given by the four Glee Clubs. there were two hundred fifty characters in all, about thirty in the cast. There was a good at- tendance at the matinee and in the evening the house was packed, some had to be turned away. lt is proclaimed that Briar Rose was the biggest and best operetta ever to be given at Westerville High School. SYNOPSIS When the lovely Princess Briar Rose, daughter of the King and Queen of Lorovaine, was christened, the wicked Ranaulda, thirteenth fairy, was not in- vited to the christening feast, and so decreed that Briar Rose should die at the age of fifteen, by the prick of a spindle. The gentle Fairy Queen, in an effort to forestall the dreadful doom of Briar Rose, decreed that she should not die but should sleep for many years. The King ordered all spinning wheels in the kingdom to be burned. On the Princess' fifteenth birthday Prince Florizel of Tuscany. with whom a marriage had been arranged for Briar Rose, came to Lorovaine, accompanied by Drago, son of the evil Renaulda, and her instrument in carrying out her evil designs. Disguised as a gardner, fBeppob Florizel won the love of Briar Rose, allowing Drago to assume the personality of Florizel. Because of her love for Beppo, Briar Rose refused the supposed Prince and fled. Beppo also flees to escape the King's wrath. Returning to the garden late at night Briar Rose is induced by the wicked Drago to climb to the ramparts for a word with Beppo. Reaching the Tower Room, she comes upon the only spinning wheel left in the kingdom, and coaxing the Spinning Woman to let her have a try at the wheel, Briar Rose pricks her finger and at once falls into deep slumber, as do all other living creatures within the palace. Through the years that follow, Florizel is kept young and handsome by the magic power of the Fairy Queen. Finally he returns to the isolated garden at the charmed moment to find his sleeping love. Again Renaulda intervenes with the help of Drago, setting the villagers on Florizel. Florizal fatally wounds Drago and with his death Renaulda's spell is broken. Florizel enters the Tower Room and Briar Rose is restored to life as the entire household awakens and rejoices. QT f F Y A K ,of iff The Class Play of 11930 HE play presented this year by the Senior Class is EASY COME, EASY GO , a farce in three acts by Owen Davis. The story shows how a couple of clever crooks make their way into a fashionable circle, where they succeed be- yond their fondest hopes. After escaping from a town where they have cracked a bank, the crooks meet a millionaire and his intended son-in-law. The millionaire takes a liking to one of the crooks, telling him the secret of his success, which is nothing more nor less than bluff. But the crook finds that compared with the millionaire, he is an honest man, and in the end turns out as the hero of the play. Naturally he captures the charming girl from the pro- spective son-in-law of the millionaire. ln the end he makes everyone realize that sincerity is better than bluff and is the only way of attaining permanent success and happiness. The cast included the following members of the Senior Class: Ered Bale, Lucien Adams, Robert Barnes, Dwight Barnes, George Parkinson, Nolan Alexander, Myrna Alspach, Loma Mann, Raymond Detrick, Raymond Lust, Zilpha Shaw, William Rhodes, Vida Zimmer, Hugh Glover, Gladys Patton and Raymond Schick. William Bale is stage manager. ll ELT- Hf' X f A 5' fi X XM f ' A XX. mia X 4 X V X '35 f' Qx Q43 gf K, fl! xy X 4 ff ff vw?

James Wilson and the two alternates will be the nucleus of the next year's team. The following, Gladys Patton, Loma Mann, James Wilson, Lucien Adams, James Sekinger, and George Parkinson were the first debaters ever to receive letters for debating at Westerville High School. 51 Fifty-six Q Q Z,-V The Affirmative Debate Team This year was the first that W. H. S. has belonged to a debating league. We competed in the Ohio State Debating League and although were eliminated in the first round. effective debating was done by all those on the team. The aflirmative team was composed of James Wilson, Gladys Patton, and George Parkinson. Jimmie was a real verbal fighter and should go very good next year. Good Luck. Jimmie. Gladys Patton was second speaker and we were always quite sure Gladys would hold her own when on the platform. Parkie was last speaker and tried to do his best for the team. Vile consider our season a success because we were able to beat South High of Columbus. None of the major Columbus schools were able to cope with W. H. S. teams. We, the Seniors leaving the squad this year wish Coach Arnold and his next years squad plenty of luck. -GEORGE E. PARKINSON, '30. The Negative Debate Team W. H. S. had a very unusual line-up for the negative team as the team consisted of two boys, a girl. and a man. besides the alternate, Lucien Adams was appointed captain at the first of the season and showed real promise as a debater, holding up the speakers position as a veteran and captaining the team with real skill. Loma Mann held the second speakers position and did some real debat- ing, and in spite of her inexperience made a very good showing. James Sekinger was the third speaker and did his best to hold up his end of the argument. Velma Near was our alternate and although she did not get to speak, gained experience in the season's work. The Debate Question was. Resolved: That trial by a Judge or board of Judges should be substituted for trial by petit jury in the United States. Our first debate was against Vvlorthington at Worthington and we came home with the bacon. This debate was one inexperienced team against another. The Second debate was with Prazeysburg at home. and debating against an experienced team we met with defeat. Our third debate was with Pickering- ton, Violet Twp.. at Pickerington, where we met with defeat again and so passed out of existence. Good luck to next year's team. -JAMES SEKINGER. '3O. ply!

In Memoriam Of the work of Nlr, Ballenger who has endeavored hard to teach us high ideals and true sportsmanship throughout our years in High School. , -if Senior Girls' Glee Cluh Since the Cilee Club was organized in l9Z3, it has continued to increase in size and importance with each consecutive year. This year, under the supervision of Nelle B. Mills, an operetta, Briar Rose, was presented, in which all the Glee Clubs participated. In 1924, the first prize banner for glee clubs in Franklin County was awarded to Westerville. Many successful years are anticipated. -lVlll.DRED SCHNEIDER, 730. Girls? Junior High School Glee Cluh The Junior Girls' Cilee Club was organized to give the Junior High girls who want to sing. a chance to develop their vocal ability. This year' the Junior Glee Club took part in the operetta Briar Rose, and also participated in the program during Music Week. -ANNIBEL CLYMER, Girl Reserves We Girl Reserves started out this year as a group of gypsy maidens on a quest-seeking the way to live an all-round life-one that would develop mind, body, and spirit. Our trail led us through new and strange places so we learned much and had many good times together. Before we started, The Caravan Assembled, and planned the route. We took to The Cpen Road in September. At Thanksgiving, we were in the Land of the Thankful Heart, and at Christmas our trail led To the Christ Child. At the new year we took A New Trail, which has brought us to other places: now we are coming to The End of a Sunlit Trail, and soon the Tribe will be home. Wiestiervill-e High School Commercial Cluh The KNIGHTS or KOMMERCE KLUB is a new club that has just recently been started for the benefit of those who are commercial students, Commercial teachers, business men, and all others who are in sympathy with the objects of the club have been asked to join and the charter membership shows something over sixty. The main objects of this club are: To provide social gatherings for the promotion of fellowship and good will among members: to unite the students of commercial courses in a movement tending to uplift the profession: to in- crease the efliciency of members of dictation classes and lectures, and by having the members acquainted with leading books and periodicals of their profession. May others who are interested, join next year and help carry out the ob- jects of the club, and make it a better and greater organization in the years to come. -ESTHER BAKER, '30. gil? kiwi:---.. uf. ,555 Student Couneill The Student Council for this year.is composed of Betty Jones, Warren Fulton, Eileen XVilkin. Richard Busic. Mary Harsha, Martha Shelley. Buddy Williams. Rachel Jones. Virginia Norris, Anita Bundy. Thoburn Robinson. Alan Schrader, Hugh Cilover. and George Parkinson. The purpose of this body is to promote school spirit. and to make closer contacts between teachers and students: also to represent the ideas and plans of the school. This. being the iirst year, there have been obstacles to overcome. However. we hope that in the following years this will be of more value to our High School. -VIRGINIA NORRIS, '32 The Agirieulltuire Club The Westerville Agriculture Department is a member of the National or- ganization of vocational agricultural schools in the United States. This or- ganization, The Future Farmers of America, has become one of the leading organizations of farm boys. -LLOYD STOCKDALE. '31. The Bantl The Band has become a permanent organization in Westerville High School. Its appearance at athletic contests and pep rallies was appreciated by the student body. The Band has done much to give both the players and boosters the pep necessary for a winning team. Although the membership was small this year. the Band under Mr. Miller's able instruction has accomplished much. lt gave its annual spring concert and also participated in the program during Music Vyfeek. Although many of the present members will be lost by graduation, the Band will un- doubtedly continue as one of the foremost organizations of the High School. -WILLARD KREBS, '3O. The Student Prints Westerville High School, seeing this year the need for a school periodical. organized the staff for and published for the first time 'iThe Student Prints. lt was the Hrst time in several years that Westerville had had a paper and it was also an innovation in having it printed instead of mimeographed. Assisted by the Faculty Advisor. Miss Dorothy Roberts, the Staff published thirteen issues. which appeared every two weeks. -ALAN SCHRADER. '30, Junior Boys? Gllee Clluh The Junior Hi Boys' Glee Club was organized along with the other glee clubs. There has been no noticeable increase in enrollment since its organiza- tion. This year the Junior Boys' Glee Club contributed to the program dur- ing Music Week. and also took part in the operetta Briar Rose. which was given in the High School auditorium, April 3. under the supervision of Nelle B. Mills. -MILDRED SCHNEIDER, '3O. ga A'-4AN,L1's4 W.. I --C , E Y --K-. 2 - S fi I er vfrf- -3 . X X Rf' 1, f' -'iPf-'QQ-52' Thc: Orchestra The orchestra was somewhat handicapped at the beginning of the year by a shortage of players, but under the direction of Mr. Frederic Miller, it has proved to be a successful organization. From time to time it has played at various programs and in chapel. The orchestra also played in a concert with the band held in the High School auditorium and from part of the proceeds new music was bought. As a large number of the players are graduating this year, it will be necessary to have several new members if it is to be successful next year. -MYRNA ALSPACH, '3O. HEY Club Hi-Y Club membership was nearly doubled this year owing to a new method of admitting members. This shows to some extent the aspirations of the fellows of W. H. S. toward the higher things of life. Some of the more interesting events of the year were: The Older Boys' Conference: joint meetings of the Hi-Y and Girl Reserves: meetings at Colum- bus Central Y, with other Hi-Y's of Franklin County: and meetings with Y. M. C. A. of Otterbein. This year, under the able leadership of Lloyd Chapman, the Westerville Hi-Y Club has made a slow, but nevertheless sure progress, toward its ideal. Which is: To create. maintain. and extend. throughout school and com- munity, high standards of Christian character. -PRED NoRR1s, '30. The H-omte ll-llygieriiic Class The Home Hygiene Class was formed this year by Miss Dawson. There were about twenty Senior girls in the class, and they met the sixth and seventh periods every Friday afternoon. About the middle of the year a play was given at a P. T. Pi. meeting, illustrating some of the things learned in class- how to make a bed with a patient in it, the proper way to fill a hot water bot- tle, how to improvise a bed table, back rest, etc.-and mentioning others-how to prevent spreading of communicable diseases, how to keep oneself well, etc. The class has proven so interesting and profitable that its continuance is probable. -lVlARY ALICP lVlARK, '30. Senior Boys? Gllec: Club This year the Senior Boys' Glee Club attained a very successful season, The Glee Clubs gave as an operetta Briar Rose, which was the most difficult operetta ever put on in Westerville High School and fthe most successful. Our leader, Miss Nelle Mills, effectively kept us going on the right tune and as a result, the club attained the most successful year since it was organized. It is hoped that in the future more boys will join the club and help make it a bigger success. -RALPH SAMSON. I l fM'af'L l 'btw ,lx X .C X In ,,a f .- J, T e 1. g x...J cf. 71,2 ,- 4!F'f?5sf57?

The young mentor has a real technique and idea back of each move he makes. He alone deserves much credit for the many victories this year. The better you know him the more you like and respect him. He has a true understanding of boys and is one of the biggest factors at Vifesteiville High in building boys into ideal young men. He has many characteristics which build up the morale and spirit of his successful teams and gives the boys determination to light for the Wildcats. He is sponsor of the Senior Hi-Y Club and through this creates sportsmanship in his athletics. Next year we should be able IO see the coach on a new high school athletic Held, which should help our school spirit. The Staff wishes Ballenger many successful seasons and much good luck in his years to come. LThe trophy pictured above was won by his basketball team.j -1 ,of ,ii-vu Qi? gg Sixty-six A f TX fc . sail! g ' ,-'Q- COACH STEUMPEL This is Miss Steumpel's second year at WesterX'ille and she has made a lot of friends and has gained the respect of all, the basketball squad, the student body, and the faculty. Although not having a winning team, the girls all had the right spirit and fight, There was much improvement in her team during the season. She has an equal individual interest in each and every interest. XVe hope her much success in the coming seasons. ASSISTANT COACH FOWLER Coach Fowler tried hard to do his bit toward the athletics of the school. He especially looked after the backneld in foot- ball and was a big aid in the medical field, helping the boys to keep in shape. He took charge of Ballenger's second squad in basketball. and besides Winning about fifty per cent of his contests, he developed the boys a good deal, which is really what is needed in this squad. f Wyf Assfociiatiion President 7,. ,,, ,,7, ,7,,, , , ,Hugh Glover Vice President e.eeee ,,eeee T hoburn Robinson HE Association was formed in 1927 primarily for the purpose of arousing more interest toward athletics and for creating a better school spirit. This organization is composed of only those fellows who have received in some major sport in High School. At present the enrollment is twenty-five. The association has progressed more rapidly this year than in previous years and the High School has great hopes of it becoming one of the out- standing organizations of W. H, S. The club held one meeting with the Varsity HO association at King Hall, at which Dr. Willaman, Ohio State football coach, gave a good talk. 68 Ri Gin A - - The Season of QQ HE season of '29 was one of the best in the history of the school. The fellows had a line spirit and the morale was carried throughout the year. Having a nice bunch of veteran material, the mentor succeeded in shaping up a deadly attack and developing a powerful eleven. The team was noted for its puzzling aerial attack, having perhaps the best in history. The Wildcats downed six good teams and were overpowered by only two, defeating Centerburg, Columbus Y Day School. Newark, Circleville, Co- lumbus East. and Mt. Vernon, and being defeated by Coshocton and Dela- ware. Our total score was one hundred and five against the opponents' sixty- Eve. Ll KR' -if N 'XAL T x QR- F TX df ' ,ragge- The 11929 lFootlba1llll Season CENTERBURG - After getting off to a slow start in the first half, Westerville came back to a fast finish. Our scoring was started after a long run made by Rhodes through the right end of the Centerburg line. After this run the Westerville lads played a good brand of football. At the end of the third quarter, Coach Ballenger put in his substitutes, who made a fairly good showing. The score at the end of the game was twenty-six to two. Y DAY SCHOOL The game started off very slowly and sluggishly, the Wildcats seeming to have met their equal, Each team battled up and down the field, but at no time was either team in danger of scoring. Finally by a quick break, the Wild- cats went for a touchdown. The rest of the game was an even battle and Westerville won with the score of six to nothing. DELAWARE Delaware made the game lively for the VJildcats in the early part of the game by a quick break for a touchdown, The Wildcats then settled down and held them until the last of the first half. By another fast break, Delaware ran for a touchdown and kicked the goal. The second half started with both teams battling for ground. The Delaware eleven scoring once more in the final quarter. The game ended with a score of twenty to nothing. NEWARK With the loss of the Delaware game as a black memory, they being our old rivals, the Wildcats entered their stride and walloped the Newark eleven to the tune of twelve to nothing. The game started off with the Westerville lads the stronger and continued that way throughout the game. The XVesterville brigade made both of their scores via the air route, -fe.. , A-. - ,,. '- g ,gratis COSHOCTON On a very dry stony field. the Westerville machine went down to defeat at the hand of the husky Coshocton eleven. The Wildcats, letting down in the first half, were heavily scored upon by the Coshocton brigade. But coming back in the second half and scoring two touchdowns and both goals, they seemed to be outplaying the Coshocton boys. But the scoring done in the iirst half by the Coshocton team was too great a handicap, and the game closed with a score of fourteen to twenty-five, CIRCLEVILLE Entering the game with a strong determination to win, the Westerville boys outplayed the Circleville eleven throughout the game. With many fast runs by our back Held and the holding of the Wildcat line. the Circleville boys were beaten and came out at the short end of a nineteen to nothing score. This game, although not close, was very interesting to the spectators in watching the tricky playing of our backfield. COLUMBUS EAST At the new Harley Field and Stadium of the East team. Westerville played their best game of the season. With an even battle during the first half and without either team making any gains, the game promised to be a very close one, if not a tie. But East. making a fast run for a touchdown in the last of the third quarter, seemed to point to defeat for the Wildcats. However, Ballenger's boys were not to be defeated, for by scoring a touchdown and goal in the final part of the last quarter, they beat the East team by a score of seven to six. MT. VERNON With the last game of the season and our oldest rivals, Westerville walloped the Orange and Black team for the first time in history. Being led at the half by a twelve to nothing score, the XVildcats came back to their old form and chalked up twenty-one points in a series of fast runs and passes, defeating the Mt. Vernon team by a twenty-one to twelve score. This game had a very large attendance of W. H. S. rooters. who enjoyed it thoroughly. ,,.- - 1 li, XJ, I jf,- f ' 'H GLOVER captain of our team this year, he was his best playing at center and shifting m that position to tackle and also half- k. In his three years of football at W. S., he has played in every game except Centerburg tilt of this year. Glover i been a big asset to our team and his :ition will be hard to fill. NEIL SHORT Neil was elected captain of the l93O Wildcat football team and should p-rove to be a capable leader. He played his third year at left end and this has been proclaimed as his best. As for offense, Short is a plenty tough blocker, and he is hard to beat on catching passes. He has scored many touchdowns on passes. He has to bear the blame of scoring the touchdown against the East brigade. Neil is also a good tackler. We are looking for- ward to a big year for him next season. DENVER SCOTT Scott is another Senior, having played three years at tackle in a very effective way will be missed by next year's team. With a height and weight unequalled by the rest of the team, he was a ter- ror to the opposition. His ability to guess plays and to break through opposition was unsur- passed. RAYMOND SCHICK Raymond was Westerville's one outstanding backfield man. He ob- tained a red letter for being the most valuable man on the team. Schick did practically all the punting and passing for the Wild- cats and was one of the principal reasons for the great aerial attack of the Wildcats which brought home many victories. Schick's punting ,was above average and he was one of the most dependable groundf gainers. Being a Senior and possibly the only real triple threat man, his absence will cause Ballenger much worry. CL, J R FRED NORRIS Having already a year of football experience. Ted was very valuable at the guard position. Playing twenty-six out of thirty-two quarters, Ted showed himself a good line man. His shoes will be hard to iill next season. ROGER HUHN Being a veteran this year he was one of Ballenger's right hand men. His size and weight were a big help to the Wildcat line. Being in- jured a good part of the season, he was handicapped but nevertheless he played over half the quarters and was very dependable in helping to hold the line. He is another Senior. WILLIAM RHODES Rhodes, although handicapped in . weight was full of fight and de- termination to win. He is also one of the graduating members of the eleven. Playing full back. Rhodes held up the line and made many gains around the Hanks and through the center. Rhodes has been out for football for three years and his light and ability will be missed next season. FRANCIS COLLIER Although waiting until his last year to try for the Red and White eleven. Collier became a very effi- cient end. Although playing his lirst year, he attained twenty-six out of a possible thirty-two quar- ters. His position will be hard to till. FRED BALE Not coming out for football until his Senior year, Bale was a great help to the Red and White eleven. Playing the guard position he was a valuable man. His ability to stop plays was his greatest asset. His determination and spirit throughout the season kept up the morale of the team. fx? ff 'J4'L- . an lug Y . la F z '1 ig E 'Ei as I5 ,,..,. 1 lu A --' , A 4' .1 ik , A4 .ig HARRY WEASTON Weaston played a good game at half-back throughout the season, not missing a single quarter of the whole thirty-two. His ability to carry the ball and to pass was deserving of great credit. Harry has another year at W. I-I. S.. and together with his ability, experience, and future possibilities, he is expected to do great things. JACK GOULD Playing his second year of football Gould became a very capable guard, breaking up plays and tak- ing out his man on offense. Gould has two more years at W. H. S. and we are expecting great things of him in the following seasons of thirty-one and two. FREDERICK NUTT Fred, being handicapped by his weight and height. made up them in his courage and his enthusiasm. He was one of the Wildcats' best tacklers and was known to have missed but few attempted tackles. Fred will be back with the Wild- cats next year and he will bear the ' brunt of our expectations. GEORGE DUSENBURRY Playing his first year of football this year, he was a big help as a fast driving fullback. Being a good trackman. he proved his worth in hitting the line. Next year should prove the real good of Dusenburry in the Wildcat back Held. ROBERT BARNES k '91 As manager of Westerville's football team, he was very elicient in doing the regular tasks of managing. He was well liked by all of the fellows and was known as a good fellow. BLT- as Girlls' 1Ba1s1ke:t1ba1l1l Season CENTERBURG The '29-'30 cage season began when the Wildcats journeyed to the north. Being the first game of the season it is hard to decide the kind of team the Wildcats could Produce. The game was fairly well in their hands most of the time, but the girls had the fight and determination, thus making it an exciting game. The score ended in Centerburgs favor 19 to 16. CIRCLEVILLE This was the only game of the entire season played on the home floor. The Red and White girls were in much better shape and really looked like a pretty fair ball club, but the superior southern team had little trouble in taking the game. They were superior in probably all phases of the contest and when the game was declared at an end. the locals were somewhat in the rear, the tally being 30 to 18. OTTERBEIN VOLUNTEERS This was a good practice game, giving Miss Steumple a chance to really take a deep breath and feel ambitious. A good many combinations were tried but the game was leaning our Way all of the time. This being the girls' first victory. it cheered them up and gave more determination and self-conndence to them. The scorebook looked like it was a closer game than it Was, being 22 to 18. Q spa, -if as Xe-of S j',f1QTr UPPER ARLINGTON The team of Wildcats went to Columbus with high hopes and ambitions. This was probably our best game of the season. Being played at the same time as a boys' game it was not witnessed by many followers of the Red and White, but it was a nip and tuck game throughout. We had line pass work and for- wards hardly missed a foul. Although we thought we had won, when the books were balanced it seemed to be a tie-24 to 24. GRANDVIEW Another game in Columbus. A hard fought battle was given to the West Columbus team. Not being used to as large a floor somewhat handicapped the greatly determined Wildcats. The game was finally dropped after a rough duel. The final tally was 35 to 17. The game was witnessed by a big fol- lowing of hilarious Wildcats. CIRCLEVILLE The girls' quintet traveled south for a return with Circleville. The locals put up a real battle in an attempt to avenge the defeat given them earlier in the season. The game was exciting, the lead varying throughout, but the whistle blew at the wrong time, when Circleville was in the advance, but the score was very close being 21 to 20. DELAWARE Traveling northwest this time, the girls were decided on the outcome of this duel. After having suffered two defeats in a row, the morale and spirit of the girls were greatly enraged. The game, though fairly interesting, was put well out of danger at the start. Accurate passing accounts in a large part for our victory. The game ended 22 to 7. This looks good for the tournament. DUBLIN fTournamentI In the first round of the Franklin County Basketball Tournament, we drew Dublin. Our girls' real ability was shown in this game. After a slow start, the machine started clicking and the points rolled up much in our favor. The game was witnessed by a good group of followers with high expectations. The final score was 24 to 9, our girls being much the superior team. CANAL WINCHESTER W I The second round, Westerville played the powerful XVinchester quintet. The local team was a good match for the Brown and White bunch and deserve credit, although they were not victorious. This duel brought the season to a close. .Ii fy DOROTHY PARSONS Parsons CCaptainj Parsons is known to the members of the squad for her pleasing disposition. In her two years as guard she has been successful and we wish her the best of luck. ROXABEL COON Roxy Roxy has been elected 1930-1931 cap- tain and we wish her success by the car- loads. Roxabel plays forward and is also an excellent guard. VIRGINIA FREEMAN Pete Pete was the high scorer for the team this year also making the all-county team. Much is expected of Pete in her Junior and Senior years. HELEN WATSON l.Vatson Helens height and quickness was a great help to the team. She played center and really knew how to handle the middle of the floor. She is a Senior this year thus adding another Worry to Miss Steumple's next year. RUTH KENT Kent Kent plays a good game as guard and is a very consistent player. She promises to be good material for the future basketball season. ,A 'S+ ESEN N ,Wei MARIAN HANCE Handsome The little one who was always there to receive the tip-off and furnished her op- ponent with a hard fight. MARTHA I-IOWE Mart Martha is a swell foul shot. Being a successful forward she took part in nearly all games. lVlart is also a Sophomore and can display her basketball ability in her remaining years. MILDRED WHITEHEAD Wh1'tehead Whitehead was put at a disadvantage by having her nose broken but when she did play she always played an excellent game, Much is expected of her next year. MARGARET BUCK Buck This was Buck's first year on the team. She always played hard to win and was a good loser, A basketball player who will be here next year. HELEN KREBS Krebs Krebs was a peppy guard and always got the tip-off when jumping at the foul line. Her place will be a hard one to ill. MANAGER Mary Barnes was the much appreciated manager and the girls would like her com- panionship again 'hext year. A i -ki E 4' vb T ,Q r ,,'x., if 7,-Q-J' The '29-530 S5315-OH HE basketball season this year was also an exceptional one. The mentor had a tough time in picking five men for his team. and it is very doubt- ful if he could tell you now who was on the first five without hesitation. In other words he had so many good men that it could never be known with any assurance who was starting. The competition and the mentor's technique developed the five on every floor. The team ranked second in the Central Buckeye League standing, running a close race in winning six and losing two. The Wildcats defeated Circleville twice, Grandview twice. and Granville twice. but lost both games with Bexley. ln non-league games we won two and lost three, bumping up against some of the toughest teams in Central Ohio. Vkfe won the Centerburg and Newark tilts and lost to Mt. Vernon, Athens and Delaware. The tournament count was five wins and two losses, winning the consolation trophy by losing to Upper Arlington and then defeating Dublin, Groveport, and Worthington. The boys defeated Hebron and Circleville and then were stopped by the state champs, Lancaster St. Marys, in the third round of the District Tourney. The grand total of points was 503 to -ll7 in our favor for the season. rl? igaixiliy, 5 QXGE-T gg f ,.P,,ff gf? Iflqhlq Central Buckeye League UR first game in the new league was with Circleville. Jauary 10, at Wes- terville. The prospects looked bright for a thousand per cent season. The game was in our hands all the time and looked like an uninteresting one. but the last few minutes proved quite interesting and when the gun cracked, we were one point ahead. the score being l9 to 20. Having won our Hrst. we met Bexley the following Friday at Bexley. This was the toughest team in the League. even though they had lost their first game to Granville. Our game with them was nip and tuck all the way. but Bexley led most of the time. Scott ran into some tough competition and Westerville came out on the wrong end of an l8 to l-f score. After seven days of recuperation, we slaughtered the masterful Granville quintet on our home floor before a good crowd of enthusiasts. in revenge for our first defeat. The game was well in our hands throughout, and it looked as though the mentor had given them something to think about during the week. Next week. we journeyed to Grandview. There was a good deal of pep in the followers and the school bus was taken. Pivenging the defeat of the girls, the boys jumped into a big lead after a fast warming-up period, and never cooled off. We'll have to admit most of the boys were rather warm. They brought home the blue ribbon for the Red and White cagers. The final score was 37 to 17. Starting on the second round. we were tied for first place with Bexley. But still going well, we traveled south to the cross-roads of Circleville and conquered their quintet. holding the lead almost entirely through the game. The game ended much to our favor with a score of 32 to Zl. Scott went pretty fair and the next game looked like it might be rather good. This. you know. was with Bexley. lt was held at the College Gym. The attendant crowd was the largest and most enthusiastic that ever witnessed a Westerville game. The battle was fierce throughout. The Columbus quintet took the lead at first and always held a big margin. At the half. the Wildcats were way in the rear. ln the second half, they came back and outscored Bexley, but because of the tremendous lead of the rival quintet, the final score was 33 to 22 in the favor of the opponents. This gave Bexley the undisputed first place, never to be lowered. The Westerville boys. being slightly down-hearted. were determined to keep undisputed second place. meanwhile ever hoping to see Bexley beaten. Vxfe conquered Granville with little trouble. This was Huhn's first game. Scott being injured. The last game in the League for the season was with Grandview in our gym. The mentor used the second team about three fourths of the game. for we played at the tournament the following night. The game was rather close but we led all the time. Thus ending our season in the League in second place. eff Hitters. A. cr e, X It f'1...1 uf? if K., T 5 il Nonslcaguo Games and Tournaments HE season opened at Centerburg. Although the boys did not hit their stride until about the third quarter, the prospects looked very good. The followers went home content with a 22-12 score. Many boys got to play in this game and it was rather difficult to say much about the future. After returning to school from vacation, the cagers played the strong Newark quintet. The game was played in the Alumni Gym as a preliminary to Otterbein's game. The game was held well in the Wildcats' hands through- out. This win made up for the one point loss of last year. This year's score was 25-13. Athens was our next non-league game. Being in the heart of winter and a long distance from home, the followers were few. but the boys fought hard and put up a mighty ine battle. The game was a hard one to lose as our boys worked like a clock, but it seemed as if the opposition never missed their shots, and the game ended with us on the wrong end of a 22-30 score. Mt. Vernon was our next stumbling block. The game was played at Mt. Vernon. The Gold and Black were too much for the Red and White. and after taking a quick start. the Mt. Vernon quintet was not to be stopped. The game ended 20-25. The tilt with Upper Arlington was our first conflict in the Franklin County Tournament, and although our boys tried hard, they just didn't click. We should have won the game. but this 18-10 loss didn't throw us out. To avenge the defeat. the boys easily took the consolation series by first defeating Dublin 33-ll in a one-sided game the next afternoon. The following after- noon. they had little trouble in taking the Groveport cagers into camp by a score of 23-12. Our final game of this tournament was with Worthington. After taking a rather slow start, things seemed to click, and we had little trouble in downing Worthington 29-17. ' After winning a nice sized trophy, we progressed to Otterbein's Gym for the District Tourney. We drew Hebron as the first game. lt was played on Saturday morning. Our boys took an early lead and were never halted. the game ending 38-24. Our next game was played that evening with Circleville. this making the third time that Westerville had played them this season. The opponents took the lead at the beginning of the game and held it for a good while, but finally Westerville pulled ahead and kept the lead until the final shot was fired. The score was 26-15. ' Thus the Wildcats entered the third round, meeting Lancaster St. Marys, the toughest team of the tournament. The hopes looked good in the first few minutes. but the Lancaster St. Marys quintet displayed superior basketball and defeated the Westerville Wildcats 33-18. Lancaster St. Marys not only won the District but also the State Tournament. Thus Westerville closed a fine season of basketball.

Not only did he receive a red letter in football, but also one in basketball. He has played in basketball, football, and track sports for the last three years, and will be missed by the Wildcat five of 1931. He was not only a fast forward and pivot man, but also a very good guard in the indoor sport. WILLIAM RHODES Having two years' basketball experience to his credit, Rhodes played his best in his final year. As a good shot at the basket and a very good guard, he became a very valuable member of the Wildcats. Play- ing at guard, forward, and center, Rhodes was a well developed player. Rhodes had the best average in shots of the whole squad and so won a ticket to the state finals.. He will be a hard man to replace next year. FRED BALE Bale was a very capable and valuable man on the local boys' team. His ability as a guard and as a good shot was unsurpassed. He was chosen on the first team of the All County Quintet. Also, he missed the red letter only by a five point margin. Bale is another Senior. DENVER SCOTT ' Scott, another triple sport man will be missed next year on the VVildcat quintet. Scott, because of his height, was a very valuable center, getting the jump on nearly every team and being able to control the tip was a great help in making the baskets. Scott was handicapped in the last of the season by a bad knee, which kept him out of the play, ' Q HARRY WEASTON Weaston, playing a very good brand of basketball, was very valuable to the Red and White team in the past season. He was a fast forward and was a sure shot. He has one more year on the Wildcat five, for which he has been elected captain. With his determination and experience, great things are expected of him in the coming season. HAROLD CHEEK Cheek was a very valuable man to the Wildcats in his guarding and his average at making baskets. He is a Junior and has another year on the quintet. He has been out but one year, in which he has already received a coveted NV. He will be one of the three veterans to remain on the Wildcat team for the coming season. NEIL SHORT Short was a very capable guard with a method of passing that made him an out- standing member of the team. His ability in shooting baskets was also very valuable. Neil has one more year of High School and he is expected to do big things in the sport line. Neil and two other veterans will be the only experienced basketball material left to make up next year's team. JCHN HANCE, Manager Coach Ballenger had as his right hand man, Manager John Hance. His wit and good nature made him ever popular with the team members. John always per- formed his innumerable duties promptly and well. YVithout his presence. many of the practices and trips would have been dismal. Next year's team will be fortunate to have a manager as good as Blimp. He is an all round good sport. lWith emphasis on the round. j Msg. .J sip? J. Eigbly-fo Track for 11929 HE Gahanna, Groveport, and Westerville Meet was the first meet of the season and was held at Otterbein Field on April 19, l929. It was a very close meet with all three teams getting a score of forty or above. The Westerville runners were held to a forty-eight to forty-eight tie with the Groveport team and Gahanna coming in with a close forty-one. This meet, being the 1'irst in the season, brought out the Wildcats' ability and shaped them for the remainder of the year. Coming out with four lirsts showed the ability as trackmen of the Westerville boys. On April 29, l929, the Westerville tracksters met with a group of four other schools in a League Meet at our home field. lt was a very interesting meet, in which Westerville took first with a score of forty-one, Bexley second with thirty-four, Grandview third with twenty-five, Circleville nineteen. and Granville last with eleven. Although Westerville tallied up only two firsts, they placed in nearly every event. The tracksters of the Wildcats started out with a lead and were never approached to the end. In this meet the scoring was divided between all of the participants, making it the more interesting to the watchers. On May l8, l929. Westerville tilted with Delaware in a Dual Meet at Otterbein Held. The Westerville outfit ran up seven firsts, leading the Dela- ware men all through the meet. This contest. although not a very close one, was interesting to the spectators because Delaware is one of our oldest rivals. The Westerville boys show up true to form in bringing out their best to beat Delaware by a score of 86 to 41. On May 22, l929, Westerville met the North High runners on Otterbein field, in a dual meet. There was a large crowd at the field to see the two teams clash. The Westerville men kept up with the North men in the iield events, but were beaten in the track events. Although Westerville received six hard earned firsts, they were beaten in both the relays. Th Westrville tam put many fast steppers on the cinders, but they were overpowered by the line material of the Polar Bears. This meet being the last of the season, the team suffered a loss of Doty, Davis, Secrest, Miller and Harsha for the l93O season. The score of the meet was sixty-six and two-thirds to fifty-nine and one-third. Track Season of 11930 HE Westerville Track Team will begin their season with the Liberty Union team on April l7. This meet will take pla-ce at Otterbein lield. The home team is expected to take over the boys from the southern town, and it is predicted that it will be a one sided meet in our favor. On April 22, the Wildcats meet up with the Delaware trackmen. From last year's meet, it looks as though the Wildcats have a good chance of beating the Delaware boys. On April 26, there is an open date. Following this date, on May 2, there comes the Ohio Relays. And on the third is the County Meet. The Red and White team has a good chance of coming out near the top in this meet. The District Meet on May 10, promises to be a good one, with high hopes of the Wildcats taking first place. The Central Buckeye League meet, some time in the middle ot May, should prove to be the best of the season, with good chances for a win by Westerville. On May 23 comes the last meet of the current season. the State Meet. All the Westerville runners should be in their best condition to carry off the honors. CAS this article was written on April 15, it is impossible to give the results of the track meets.J Q ,XV ' ii! a GEORGE DUSENBURRY Dusenburry has another season in track at W. H. S. and be is one of Coach Ballen- ger's right hand dash men. Dusenburry received six Hrsts last year and also broke one of the High School records. He is ex- pected to go strong in the coming season. He is very well built for track and he should break more records. RAYMOND SCHICK Schick. a veteran track man, spends his last season at W. H. S. this season. Entering in the 100 yard dash, and in the two twenty, in the running races, and in the javelin throw in the field events. Schick is expected to be one of the Wildcats' best men. With his two previous years of ex- perience and his ability as a runner, he will be a terror to all visiting track men. ROGER HUHN In the 1929 track season, Huhn made many firsts in the high jump. He will probably be entered in other events this year. His year of experience and his evi- dent ambition as a track man should carry him through the coming season with high honors. This is Roger's last year with the Red and White track men and his position will be hard to fill in the following season. HARRY WEASTON Weaston is a Junior on the Wildcat team. and has one more year of track after this season. He is going in mostly for the running events and the hurdles. He is a very valuable aid to the Red and White team and should do a lot of classy run- ning in the coming season. li ,faq J hh ,fwjs Rv F-'le' cf. 4 rf 5 .L JA,-gg' CLARENCE DIXON Dixon is another Senior who has already won a letter in track. He goes out espe- cially for Held events, including high jump and shot put. He is a Well developed athlete and much is expected of him in the coming season in the Way of a point getter and trackster. THOBURN ROBINSON Robinson's track ability in the 1929 sea- son was shown by his ability to run in the mile and half mile events. He was very determined to run against and Win from his opponents, putting all he had into his running. Thoburn has another season in school and is expected to go strong in the running races of next season. DENVER SCOTT Denver, having been out for track the best part of his High School period, is one of Coach Ballenger's right hand men, taking part in many different events. He is an- other Senior who is running in his last season. Although handicapped by a bad knee, Scott is expected to take a high place in the season's standing. 'N Q2 f'SC7' T ffl ' Diet?

The W. H. S. team was greatly handicapped as they had no pool in which to pre- pare for meets with teams that were fortunate enough to have a place to practice. ln both meets, however, our team won second place. They were close runner-ups to Upper Arlington in the Franklin County meet and to Bexley in the Central Buckeye meet. Both events were held at the Central Y. M. C. A. in Columbus. ln the League affair the Red and White team showed much improvement over their first showing. The final score was one point in favor of Bexley, who has caused much trouble to athletic teams of W. H. S. in the past year. The swimming season, as a whole, was a very successful one and team members deserve much credit for the remarkable record that they made. lf the same improvement is made in coming years as was made between meets this year, W. H. S. should boast the best swimming team in Central Ghio. As this enterprise is not regarded a major sport, letters were not awarded the swimmers. Medals were awarded to winners of the individual events in both meets. Hugh Clover, XVilliam Rhodes, Cieorge Meyers, and Evans Jones com- posed the team this year. Meyers, who was an outstanding performer the past season, and Jones will form the nucleus for next year's team. The Annual Staff offers its most sincere congratulations to those who made this team a suc- cess and its heartiest wishes for a winning team in coming years.
