WiTh A Bit Cf Larnin OF THE WILDCATS OF W H S W ,dx xx f In Dedication We, the Class ul' leel no other person to be more deserving ol' the l!l5Al dedifation than Mr. T. V. Banc'rolit, our prinripal. During the eighteen years which Nlr. llanfrolt has been at XVesIerville High he has easilv won the deep respect and admiration ul the student body. . , To us, he represents a llllllllllllllllg inlluenre which sees each student as an individual and an adult. His assistanfe with the l95-l Searchlight has meant a great deal to all tlmse who have had a part in its publication. None ol' us will ever look back on the six years at YV. H. S. without remembering the genial man behind the desk. Teen-age problems which seein the greatest in the world are understandably solved by Mr. B who never hesitates to say, Come in any time-be glad to help. Those who lead FACULTY 432 I1 17 JY! M.

Read all about it! T. V. Bancroft lands principal's position at NVHS in 1936 as little Vllildcats appear across the nation .... Extra! Extra! At last the day arrived when these NVildcats descended upon the halls of XVesterville High School, and little did anyone know what was ahead. The seventh grade started with a bang for future Mid-Six champions, Eddie Billrnan and Mike Hanley, who were playing hard with Tillie's Kittens. jo-Ann Holtsberry and Edna Staley cut off the cherished pigtails to create a more mature appearance while Dennis O'Keefe was playing Rudolph Valentino with all of the females and presenting his picture to all of the little lovelies. Another romance was in bloom with Wendel Miesse writing very emotional love notes to Helen O'De1l, who kept each one in a shoe box which she hid underneath her bed. Paul McIntosh seemed to have caused quite an uproar in English class by displaying his talent with the yo-yo. The Minerva Park Cats with their gang leader, Sandra Haag, came to join us in the eighth grade. They brought Glenda Berg- man, whom we discovered played the piano. very well. Miss Harley was quite disturbed, for Dean Hard insisted on bringing forth his best talents in homeroom to entertain Lillian Howard by telling his best censored jokes. In the halls Joan Smith and Nancy Tepper were running quickly to hide, for Walter Shelley just loved to hit and strangle these girls. The ninth grade brought many grown-up touches to our classes. Our newly elected cheerleaders were Gayle Davie, Rowlanda Lint- ner, Zoe Bargdill, and Marilyn Rose. Nancy Whipp and Shirley Gallogly had at last become part of the Senior Band-with all of those upper classmen. Margie Nutt and Gayle Davie were quite often seen taking the very long way home so that they could pass the fraternity houses. Great discussions were held in General Science class. It seems that Roger Bell had discovered a new species of bird unknown to mankind. Josephine Madden, Shirley McC1ary, and Marian Miller could never get into homeroom on time, and Verda Ramey spent quite a bit of time with Mr. O'Conne1l after school, New wildcats came on the scene as we entered the sophomore year. Frank Brill embarrassed quite a few people in Latin class with his loud talking. You see, he had not yet learned to whisper. Don Streets and Bill Skaates were working hard on their track records, and Don longshot Yantis 'helped the golf men to win the second Mid-Six trophy. jim Singer contracted a serious allergy to- ward girlsg and Dick Close, Dave Hall, Paul McDannald, and Bob Wren perfected a great disappearing act during the rush for Holly Prom dates. At our first class party we thrilled to the music of Norma Robbins and her accordian. Suzie Rhodes held the honor of being the attendant to the Sweetest Girl, Jackie Cooper. 23 At the opening of the junior year. the XYildcats found themselves in many organizations and other activities. Helen O'Dell and Barbara Sullivan represented our class on the Fall Homecoming court as did Marian Busic at the XYinter Homecoming. The arrival of Nancy Parsons and Tom Blakemore lengthened the list of little wildcats while the loss of Susan Allison and Don Wells otlset that gain. The long awaited class rings finally arrived and-after the distribution by Martha Hofmann, class secretaryewere proudly displayed to all. Jeanette Homer kept all chemistry students on their toes for she delighted in making mistakes and mixing up a little chemical confusion. Our Junior class play, Three Blind Dates. drew the largest audience ever. Kenny Cole really enjoyed that kissing scene in the second act, for his leading lady was-yes, you guessed it-his fourth grade Hame, Marilyn Rose. One high- light of the year was Wade Barghausen's new car. He now came breezing to school'in this luscious light green convertible while Herman better-late-than-never Jooss still bounced to school in his little red jeep. The sixth period typing class was certainly glad that Betty Sergent was born on a school day. for they celebrated her birthday with cokes for all. At the end of the semester Doris S-haw and Alice Matz were leading in typing, but a few of us re- tarded ones were still hunting and pecking. Herbert Stout talked so much in speech class that we wondered who was the teacher-Mrs. G. or Herbert. To end a great year for honors, Ruthann Stanfield won the hrst prize in the state for her essay on Tuberculosis and was also elected editor of the annual. XYhen the long awaited year came. we discovered that we didn't feel tor actj so grown up after all. Bob Edwards had lettered so many signs and posters. for Mrs. G. that he began to hang them in Senior Alley for public display. Ralph Brehm and John Zimmer were properly confusing both the physics class and its teacher with their theories on everything from .-X to Z. Fall Homecoming was a big success with Queen Joyce Miller reigning majestically over all. Shirley Metcalf ran a taxi for all girls without cars. and Emily Bale made pizza for all those with ltalian blood and big appetites. Judy Lumbatis joined our group from Reynoldsburg and was all the rage with her long curly hair. As the year progressed, Rowlanda Lintner, Phyllis Mann, and Marian Busic became the proud owners of diamond rings while Janet Slack pined away with a serious case of bell-bottom blues. Dennis O'Keefe came out on top again and added to his long list of honors a scholarship from XYittenberg College. A long desired sports record and scrapbook was at last started by sports-reporter, Larry Rood. The vocal chords of three local lovelies were being exercised to form a Senior Trio of Erna Lund, Jennie Sprague, and Emily Bale. The walls of the halls and rooms became sparkling clean as Ralph Smith with his twin buckets worked during free periods and after school under the close super- vision of Mr. Scarfpin. XVinter Homecoming, the Senior Class play and the junior-Senior Banquet and Prom brought to a close this wonderful year. Now there was only one more step to go - Graduation. As each little XVildcat marched across the platform to receive his diploma, parents, relatives. and teachers had to admit that these young ladies and gentlemen were quite a bit tamer than they had been six years previous.

Selling Christmas Cards, and numerous paper drives throughout their high school career helped l'atten the junior piggy bank. Combining work with lun, the Juniors proved they could tackle any job assigned to thein. The Happier XfVe'll Be, a comedy in three arts. starring an entire Cast ol' Juniors combined work and play and helped our cats earn the money which will be used not only lor the junior-Senior, but also the l955 Scurflzliglfl and other events in the Senior year. A nlenlber ol' the Class, Dawn XVattern1an, was Chosen from a group ol' Fine young would-be-writers to be editor ol' the next Senrflllight. In the fields ol' sports, the class ol' '55 contributed a great deal to XVHS. Track, baseball, basketball, and football teanis benefited from the assistanfe of the Junior nienibers ol' the squads. Many other momentous occasions oreurred this year for the Class. The terrifying tryouts for the class play and choosing the representatives for both Boys' and Girls' State were packed lull ol' suspense. Tops on the list ol' activities will always be the 'Iunior-Senior, when they play hosts to the graduating class-planning, arranging, and preparing the entire event-assisted by their advisers, Mrs. Nlary Belle Clary, Mr. Kenneth VVeiss, and Mr. Virgil Ashcraft. 26 D 0 iff .x ' 7 5. , S If X in preparation for the Row 1 Anna Ballard, Jennie Bossetti, Mary Lou Baker, Becky Beaver, Nellie Brofford, Joann Dowell, Shirley Dusenbury, Eileen Bunnel.

For the first time, some very lucky Sophs found their lockers were right up to the top floor, where the seniors used to be. The dreaded task of being initiated into Y-Teens, will long be remembered by the ladies of the class. Two class parties, the Sophomore Hop and a scavenger hunt, made sure it wasn't all work and no play for our growing 'Cats. The final important event of the year was ordering class rings, which will be anxiously awaited by our Sophomores. 'WWF id SS? Q v 2' , s 5 I g ,,. I Bvame Gum 'Z l..

Dick Close led the scoring with two TD's, one on a 30- yard pass-interception. Don Yantis and Don Townsend each claimed one touchdown while Don Keyes and Ed Smith had safetys. Paul Mc- Intosh looked very sharp at quarterback in throw- ing two touchdown passes. HAMILTON TOWNSHIP W'esterville's first home game, September 26, resulted in a 7-0 decision over Hamilton Town- ship. Don Townsend scored the game's only touchdown on a l-yard plunge after Paul McIn- tosh had passed to Dick Close for Sl yards. In the fourth quarter the WVildcats had a 41-yard touchdown pass from Dick Close to Neil Gor- such called back. FOOTBALL N y f :L . ir ,,,-.

WORTHINGTON On October 2, the Cats journeyed to Wor- thington to open Mid-Six play and held the Cards to a 0-0 tie. Both teams had two scoring opportunities, but all were broken up. Midway in the third quarter the Cards had the ball on the Westerville 7-yard line only to have Paul Mc- Intosh intercept a pass and return it 32 yards. In the fading minutes with Close and Townsend carrying the ball, Westerville moved to the Wor- thington only to have time run out. 38 HILLIARDS Hilliards came to town, October 9, and the Cats proved victorious, 6-0. The score came in the second quarter as Don Townsend cracked over from the I I. Ed Smith had recovered a fum- ble several plays earlier on the I6 to set up the score. Townsend again highlighted the game in the final period as he rambled for 42 yards to the Hilliard l8. Guard Hans Schneider threw a beautiful key block. MARYSVILLE XVesterville's victory string of three wins and one tie and their unscored-upon record ended at mid-season. Marysville's Monarchs proved to be the spoiler as they handed the Cats their first setback on October I6 by a score of I3-0. The Cats' only real scoring threat came in the first quarter, but they were stopped on the Marys- ville l8. Dick Close prevented another Marys- ville TD in the final seconds as he intercepted a pass on the XVesterville 2-yard line. GROVE CITY October 23 the Cats journeyed south to meet undefeated Grove City in their homecoming game. The Greyhounds remained undefeated as they gave XVesterville their second loss to the tune of 2-I-20.

Senior Girls Glee Club Let's try it again, girlsf' says Mrs. Betty Keig, vocal director of the Senior Girls Glee Club. The songsters have experienced a year of significant musical endeavors. Talent and training paid big dividends in satisfaction and achievement for members of the XVI-IS glee club, for both the school and the community took pride in the group. In addition to many performances at assemblies and other school affairs, the group sang, by invitation, at local churches and before many organizations. Some of the most outstanding features of the year's activities were: the Christmas assembly, the Masonic Temple Christmas program, the District Contest, Easter program and Baccalaureate. Glenda Bergman, aided by Eileen Bunnell Noble, vice-president: Iirna Lund and Barbara San- ford, secretaries: Shirley Metcalf, treasurer: Donna Iibright, and Dawn YVatterman, librarians, and Emily Bale, publicity chairman, presided as president. In former times it was necessary to arouse an interest, whereas today, interest is so great that members must be chosen from a large number of candidates. Thus, two divisions of the glee club have been formed-each practicing on a different day. Otterbein College honored the girls by asking them to sing at a special assembly on campus in the spring. Their N'Vomen's Glee Club returned the favor by appearing before the high school the following week. 62 --A 'Ir --Mi ' -1- 1'r'j1n'.s'1'l1Ii11g Ihr' fAl'I'.S'lllll!lII 1'lr1.r.s' u'r1.s' H10 . .

Tradition has it that students can yell louder if they have a band blowing in their ears and so it was during the sports seasons when this inspiring organization added greatly to the spirit of the NV H S students. The band serves as three units: a marching band for the football season, a pep band for the basket- ball games and pep rallies, and a concert band. Mr. Forrest Becker, the conductor, spent nianyhours preparing these many projects with the help of the band oflicers, who were: lim Singer, presidentg Pete Frevert, vice president: Larry Millikan, sec- retary-treasurer: .lo-Ann Holtsberry and Alice Matz, librarians: -lack Sanford, Alvin Budd, and Lloyd O'Keefe, managers: and Shirley Gallogly, uniform chairman.

T'S the one on the right because it's a door of an American home. No one can get through without permission. Not even a police- man, unless he has a search warrant. Here, in America, your right to freedom from search without warrant is guaranteed by The Constitution itself. How dilferent behind the iron curtain! There, the people have no such protection. And even a solid oak door, strong enough to guard a fortress, can't keep out the secret police. When they want in they get in, eventually, even if they have to use a battering ram. But the flimsiest screen door in America can keep out the police unless they have a search warrant. Because we Americans take our rights for granted, it's hard to believe that there are pinkos and fellow-travelers amongst us who want to take away our freedom from search without warrant. It's just part of their plan to steal all our rights, like the right to own property, the right to work wherever we please, the right to vote secretly and all the rest. The best way to protect a right is to use it. So if you ever hear anyone come out in favor of permitting arbitrary search and seizure on some pretext or other, set him straight! Remind him that freedom from search without warrant is a right guaranteed every American by The Constitution. Remember, they're your rights, so treat them right! DO YOU KNOW YOUR RIGHTS? As Americans, we have the greatest freedom and the highest standard of living in the world. Help keep it that way by knowing your rights and guarding them well. Some of them are: Freedom of worship Right to secret ballot 'Right to know how your union :prndr your dues Freedom of .ipeerh Freedom ol the preu Right lo criticize obirials iRight to know .valarin of your union odirery Freedom from iearrh without warrant Right to petition government lor redrerx ol grievance: 'Right to know if your union officerr are Communists 'IRighl to know how your union ix run Right to ,speedy and public trial hy fury Right to help of a lawyer 'Right to hear your ernployrfx side of disagreement!
