M. RAY MORRIS McDermott Faces Problems As School District Expands To Superintendent H. C. McDermott falls the task of managing the schools in the WesterviUe School District and maintaining the high quality of educational oppor- tunity to which WesterviUe has always been accustomed. McDermott has had considerable experience in the teaching end of education as well as the administrative part. Before taking his job in WesterviUe in 1964, McDer- mott had instructed courses in biology, chemistry, physics, world history, and American history. He had also been principal of Sidney High School and, later, Superintendent of the Sidney school system. A steady increase in the population of the district and Westerville ' s annexation of still more land presents McDermott with the problem of providing adequate schooling facilities for the incoming students. If and when he has leisure time, McDermott enjoys several hobbies, including music, reading, golfing, and the all- American pastime fishing. H. C. McDermott, B.S.Ed., B.E., M.Ed. MR. M. RAY MORRIS holds the position of Assistant Superintendent of Schools. It is his job to see that all the school ' s buses are headed in the right direction when they start out in the morning and to make sure that they all return safely to the fold every night. His outgoing personality has won him many friends around the school and town, and he still finds time to be active in community organizations, and to enjoy music, the theater, and sports. 18 ADMINISTRATION MR. DANA W. AUKERMAN MR. DANA W. AUKERMAN has just com- pleted his first year as principal of WHS. He came to Westerville, via the principalship of Lima Senior High, a school of over 1800 students in the top three grades, because he felt he would like to work in such a growing community as this. Mr. Aukerman was born in Olifornia, but has spent the rest of his life in Ohio. He at- tended Lima schools, obtained his bachelor ' s de- gree from Ohio Northern, and earned hi s Masters in Administration from Ohio State Universit) ' . In his first year as principal, he has initiated many changes within the school and plans for a few more in the future. No marter what happens, he strongly believes in the worth of an individual and will go beyond normal measures to earn and maintain the respect of a student. MR. HERBERT GARY 24 MR. HERBERT GARY, vice-principal, has always been respected and admired by the students as one who challenges them to set high standards pnd live up to them. He has few specific duties delegated to him, but he does carry out business from Mr. Aukerman ' s office as well as taking care of the attendance procedures. In the near future he will be the leader of a WHS orien- tation program for student teachers. Mr. Gary enjoys jotting down philosophic quotations which he likes to pass on to others. One of his favorites, attributed to the Duke of Wellington, can be applied to many situations: Don ' t shoot cannon at sparrows. 19 ADMINISTRATION MR. THOMAS BANCROFT is one of Wester- viUe High School ' s most familiar faces. He was principal here for 24 years, and he now handles the numerous duties of the junior and senior high school curriculum director. He is in charge of summer school, recommends teachers for hir- ing, and aides teachers by obtaining films and other needed classroom materials. With these responsibilities, he still finds time to collect stamps, to golf, and to go boating. MR. JON WILDERMUTH, one of the three new guidance counselors, counsels all freshman, sophomore, and junior boys. Before coming to Westerville he had received degrees from Miami and Xavier Universities. While not in conference or administering aptitude tests, Mr. Wildermuth coaches the reserve basketball team and is an assistant football coach. Under his leadership, the reserve basketball cagers took the Mid-Eight Championship. A great sports enthusiast, he be- lieves that sports relate to life in that one gets out of it what he puts in to it. MR. T. V. BANCROFT I MR. JON WILDERMUTH MR. RAY EIBE.N 20 MRS. MARTHA GRANT MRS. MARTHA GRANT, with her friendly personaliry and sincere concern, has won many friends this year in her first year as counselor to all freshman, sophomore and jtinior girls. She is happy to share in the personal, as well as academic, problems of students and she has an opportunity to help the students through prob- lems they encounter during their teeenage years. Sewing is her favorite hobby, and she makes many of her own clothes; she also enjoys listen- ing to classical music, swimming, and traveling. MR, RAY ElBEN has the frightening task of getting to know all the seniors, as he is the guidance director for all seniors boys and girls. In his conferences with students, he interprets tc-st scores, aids in completing applications of all kinds, and tries to guide the students into mak- ing the right decisions concerning their present and future. Mr. Eiben feels that schools today are too policed and that the only way that students will act like adults is to let them work together for their own good. Among other things, he would lik? to see unsupervised pep rallies: Let them relieve their feelings if they have any; and true honor srudy halls: It ' s not really an honor this year. The kids are just shoved in. ADMINISTRATION MISS ELIZABETH PASSMORE really keeps her mind on the books for a good reason. As the WHS hbrarian, she takes care of the approx- imately 9000 volumes housed in the library. Al- though this year ' s reduction of the number of study halls has cut down library use for some students, Miss Passmore hopes that in the future more students will want to use the library as a good place to work. Through gifts to two memor- ial funds and appropriated moneys. Miss Pass- more is assured that her no gum chewing, no conversations, get-down-to-business domain will continue its expansion as a much needed part of student school life. MRS. MARION FULLER MISS ELIZABETH PASSMORE MRS. MARIAN FULLER, R.N., has the privilege of caring for all the .11 and injured students of WHS. She works at the high school three days a week and is on call when she works at the junior high the other two days. Before coming to WHS last fall, she worked part time in a hospital. When she isn ' t catering to the needs of students or her four sons, Mrs. Fuller enjoys bowling, swimming, and playing bridge. MISS ZORA YOUMANS has spent 31 years at WHS as secretary. She was graduated from Otterbein College and attended Bliss Business College. She is the first to admit that working in the main office of a busy school and being close to students all day is an education in itself. In her position as secretary, she performs a variety of duties including typing teachers ' tests, running the mimeograph machine, writing checks, and straightening up the messy bookkeeping of various organizational treasurers. Home from the office Miss Youmans delights in teaching new words to her parakeet Pete. MISS ZORA YOUMANS MRS. BETTY HALL MRS. RUTH ZIMMERMAN MRS. BETTY HALL, s ecretary- of WHS, came here after working at the Jeffrey Manufacturing Company. She is kept busy by the normal sec- retarial duties, but once in a while she has to break up the social gatherings the office girls like to hold in the main office. Says Mrs. Hall, Who has time for hobbies with housework and three children? True, enjoying — and picking up after — Jill, Rick, and Mark do keep her more than occupied in her hours at home, but she does find time to participate in the activities of the Eastern Star. — -- .i . J MRS. RUTH ZIMMERMAN, or as she is more often called, the lady in the little office, is chiefly occupied as the secretary to the guidance counselors. On a regular day, she writes two dozen passes, types up an untold number of transcripts and recommendations, and, if the nurse is not in, she places ice bags on bruised heads and bandages chemistry accident victims. A Girl Scout leader for ten years, Mrs. Zimmer- man now spends her spare time caring for her family and pet dog and cat Booker and Homer. 21 FACULTY MRS. GRACE ARTHUR has the ambitious task of instmaing interested home ' economics stu- dents in the techniques of sewing in basic and advanced clothing classes. Caught up in the whirl of bound buttonholes, plackets, and hem- ming, she obtained her B.S. in home economics as well as elementary education. Mrs. Arthur feels that she teaches a subject of universal impor- tance, for, A good homemaker is the nucleus of every family. She is an avid sports fan and enjoys watching the WHS teams in action. MRS. GRACE ARTHUR MR. ROBERT AUGSPURGER MR. WALTER BAHOREK MR. ROBERT AUGSPURGER, a graduate of Ohio State Universit) ' , began teaching here last year at the beginning of the second semester. He is blessed with the job of guiding unsuspect- ing biology students along the line of incision of a wiggling earthworm or a formaldehyde- soaked frog. He also offers a steady hand when one of his students becomes a little dizzy during a blood-typing experiment. During the summer, Mr. Augspurger combines his interest in namre with teaching and counseling in an Outward Bound school, part of a national camping pro- gram for boys and girls. MR. WALTER BAHOREK can often be seen walking down the halls of school being greeted by both faculty and students. Mr. Bahorek has found Westerville High students very courteous and interested in scholarship, but he is disap- pointed in the lack of school spirit. He teaches industrial arts and in the summer, drivers ' educa- tion. There haven ' t been many accidents in drivers ' ed., but Mr. Bahorek hopes that when the sign says stop here on red, the students will some day stop instead of looking for red. MRS. JUDY BARBOUR MR. JOHN BECK MRS. JUDY BARBOUR, teacher of sophomore English, graduated from Ohio State University with both a Bachelor of Arts degree and a Bachelor of Science degree in Education. She and her husband enjoy camping and making certain that their cat is considerate of their tropical fish. MR. JOHN BECK teaches four classes of physics and one class of first yc-ar algebra. Few students are aware that Mr. Beck is also a special agent, not the James Bond type on assignment from the government, but a special agent for the Pru- dential Insurance Company. Dropping his pep rally alias of Tex Beck behind him, he leaves school to go home to his wife and two daughters. Micelle and Annette. Mr. Beck ' s interests are many and varied. As a folk song enthusiast, he is probably best remembered for leading the scnior band bus in a few choruses of Michael, Row the Boat Ashore . 22 FACULTY MR. FORREST BECKER MR. FORREST BECKER direas the school or- chestra and red and white concert bands, and also spends a great deal of time preparing the Marching 99 for its performances at football games and parades. In addition to being a fine director, Mr. B is probably one of the greatest cheerleaders that speaators have ever seen. Before a crucial football play, he always initiates a rous- ing go! go! go! with a wave of his hat, or bursts out with his own special cheers at pep rallies. For pastimes, other than promoting Joy to the World as the best Christmas carol, he enjoys golfing, and prides himself in coddling the earliest blooming roses on Walnut Street. MRS. REBECCA BERRY, chairman of the Eng- lish Department, teaches sophomores the correct usage of the English language. She sees WHS as becoming a big city school, rather than the suburban school it once was; but nevertheless, she still believes it is a good school in which to teach. Believe it or not, teen-agers are her favorite age group, and she especially chooses to teach the sophomores since they are at such a chal- lenging age level. In class, she expects students to think for themselves and not to beat around the bush when answering questions. MR. REGIS BIRCKBICHLER is the man to see if you want to know which battle was fought where, which President was elected when, or if you want to leave the cafeteria at noon for any reason. Ask any junior what the hardest job in American history is, and he ' ll tell you it ' s learning to spell Birchbichler. Mr. Birckbichler enjoys keeping up on current events and wishes his students did too; the biggest current event for him this year was his wedding. There are many memories of Westerville in Mr. Birchbichler ' s mind: his own school days, his teaching career, and his chaperoning of the eighth grade trip to Washington D.C. MR. FRANK BLACK, economics and American government teacher, is one instructor, his students generally agree, who really knows his subject. He should since he received his bachelor ' s degree at Princeton and his master ' s at Northwestern, both considered excellent universities. Mr. Black ' s chief CKCupation outside of teaching is managing to stay young. Although he enjoys tennis, chess, and rooting for the Cleveland Browns, his first love is skiing. Last winter he initiated a ski program for WHS students at Clear Fork Ski Resort, of which he was a former manager. MR. WILLIAM BROWN MR. REGIS BIRCKBICHLER MRS. LOUISE BUNCE MRS. REBECCA BERRY MR. FRANK BLACK MR. WILLIAM BROWN, teacher of vocational horticulture, has a new toy to play with this year — the greenhouse. Classwork in the green- house got off to a late start this year, but Mr. Brown hopes that next year honiculture students will be able to start off in September with the aspects of commercial production. He attended Marietta College, graduated from Ohio State, and came to WHS from teaching at Malta- McConnelsville. His favorite pastime, he claims, is trying to make room for leisure time. MRS. LOUISE BUNCE is in her twelfth year of teaching at Westers ' ille High School. A graduate of WHS. she now teaches shorthand I and II and t yping II. She earned her undergraduate degrees from Ohio State Universit ' and has done gradu- ate work at the University of Cincinnati and Columbia University. Unfortunately. Mrs. Bunce was forced to miss almost six months of school this year, but her return in the spring was wel- comed by both students and faculty. 23 FACULTY MR. CHARLES BURNER MRS. MARY ALICE BUSICK MR. CHARLES BURNER is seldom seen around school anywhere but in the gymnasium and on the practice field. As teacher of freshman health classes and physical education, he also serves as the head coach for the Wildcat football and wrestling teams. It is no surprise that Mr. Burner places a great deal of emphasis on athletics and feels that sports are a good teacher of life. When he is not concerned with gridders and grapplers, he enjoys traveling. MRS. MARY ALICE BUSICK can be found behind piles of papers and books in her room whenever she is needed. Mrs. Busick is a busy person, teaching journalism and Junior English and advisin.g the Whekat and Searchlight staffs. She was in the first class with over one hundred students to graduate from Westerville High. After she graduated from Otterbein, she taught at Marion-Franklin High School in Columbus. In comparing Marion-Franklin and Westerville, she believes that Westerville students have more de- sire to learn and are much more eager to be educated. MR. JOHN CAMPBELL MRS. MARY COCHRAN MR. WALLACE CONARD MR. JOHN CAMPBELL, a new addition to the physical education department of Westerville High, also serves as assistant football coach. A graduate of Otterbein College, his interests out- side the locker room include all sports, music, and children Lisa and Kyle. This combination of interests might lead one to expect musical football at some future date. Or maybe it could be a football musical. MRS. MARY COCHRAN left Westerville after her graduation from Otterbein but returned to teach freshman English. She enjoys life in general, but is particularly fond of ceramics and needle- work. Mrs. Cochran tries to instill in her stu- dents an appreciation for literature by great authors and poets. Probably all teachers have found humor in something turned in to them during their careers, and Mrs. Cochran has had her share. Only recently someone wrote in his paper that, Pheasants were walking along the road to Camelot. MR. WALLACE CONARD is leading the dis- tributive education department of WHS through its second successful year, and he also teaches two one-semester courses of salesmanship. His big goal as a teacher still remains to build up the D.E. class of Westerville High so it will be one of the best in the state. Mr. Conard ' s schedule also demands that he oversee the work of all his students in their respective jobs in order to see that they are performing to their full capacity. MRS. INEZ CURRY teaches English I and II. She is a friend to many students of all grade levels, having earned their respea by her won- derful capability of being an easy person to talk to and also a gcx)d listener. Although she teaches only English at WHS, she has taught many other subjects, ranging from mathematics to French in other schools. Mrs. Curry is also a published writer, having had several of her poems printed in magazines. Besides reading and writing, she also knits, evidenced by some of her beautiful sweaters. MRS. INEZ CURRY 24 FACULTY MR. JOHN DAVIS keeps his students learning and laughing in his geometry and chemistr ' classes. He likes Westerville and enfoys teaching at WHS, but he believes that the school would improve if more students would take an aaive part in sp)orts. Much of his spare time and his summers at Purdue are spent working on his Masters ' degree. Mr. Davis and his wife like to spend their week-ends taking short trips. If he can find the time, he plans to do a lot of garden- ing since a house without shrubs just isn ' t attrac- tive. MR. D. L. DECENZO is the school ' s mechanical drawing and woodworking teacher, golf coach, and assistant wrestling coach. He is also the line football coach for Otterbein College. Busy as he must be, he also finds time for golfing and gardening. He believes Westerville has a good cross-cut of students and there are other schools that are wilder . Many students have gotten to know Mr. DeCenzo this year when they tried to sneak into school from the parking lot at lunchtime. But no one, absolutely no one, can get past the watchful eye of Mr. DeCenzo. MR. DONALD DELANEY is teaching sociology for the second year at Westerville High. His direct, enthusiastic methods of teaching have made sociology a course that is out of the ordinary realm of lecture classes. This year the Debate Club, under the supervision and guidance of Mr. Delancy, has gained the status of a team, and through his encouragement has participated in several tournaments. Mr. Delaney enjoys the tech- niques of debating because he feels they develop the self-confidence that is lacking in most students. MR. WILLIAM DODSON, the economics teacher, racked his brain at the Searchlight interview but could not think of anything to say except what he said his two previous years here. He did, how- ever, repon that he is no longer looking for a girl and he no longer bowls. MR. JOHN DAVIS MR. NICK DECENZO MR. DONALD DELANEY MR. WILLIAM DODSON MRS. JANE EDWARDS MRS. JANE EDWARDS is the good natured instructor of raping I. She came to Westerville and the world of asdfghjkI;C after teaching in Chautauqua, New York and Miner ' a, Ohio. She likes teaching here at Westerville High School and has found her classes to be composed of friendly, cooperative, hardworking, normal teen- agers. ' Among her hobbies are knitting, attending sporting events, and taking in the school ' s dra- matic produaions. MISS MARY LEE EIGENSEE is one of the two new girls physical education teachers; she also teaches health to freshman. A recent graduate of Ohio State, Miss Eigensee is a favorite with her students because she doesn ' t forget what it ' s like to be a teen-age girl. With her accomplice Mrs. Gantz. she has helped the physical education department take giant strides forward; late in the wrestling season when the mats were beginning to emit a noticeable odor, she and Mrs. Gann improved the situation by perfuming the mats, causing WHS to have the only sweet-smelling mats in the wrestling league. 25 FACULTY MR. JOHN EVANS successfully fulfills the duties of teaching general science and physical educa- tion, coaching the cross-country and track teams, and chasing wandering students off the parking lot at lunch time. This busy man does find time, however, to keep in shape by golfing, bowling and gardening. He stresses the importance of an education and believes that participation in sports is just as important to students as academic classes. He would like to see more pep rallies at WHS, as long as the studen ts want to support the team, and he wishes more students wanted to back his hard working track boys. MRS. DORIS GANTZ is enjoying her second time around as a physical education teacher at Westerville High. She taught here for one sem- ester four years ago until her husband was transferred; nevertheless she accomplished a lot in the short time she was here: she formed the Girls ' Athletic Association, which is now the biggest organization in the school and which she now advises. All totaled, Mrs. Gantz has taught for six years, including three semesters in San Diego, California, and a year at the Ohio State School for the Blind. MR. JOHN EVANS MRS. DORIS GANTZ MRS. LILLIAN GOSSETT has been on the faculty of Westerville High for twenty-two years, teaching everything from English to drama and advising the Blendon Township Junior Historical Society. This year, she teaches Ohio history and serves as Dean of Girls. In this multi-colored world of blue, yellow, white, and pink passes, Mrs. Gossett also keeps the attendance records in order and hands down final verdicts on deten- tion victims. In past years she has taken students on trips to such places as Nassau and New York City. MR. GLENN GRIFFITH, who has been a mem- ber of the WHS faculty for sixteen years, in- structs vocational agriculture. In addition to his, regular classes, in the evening he teaches an adult education course called the Young Farmers As- sociation. He is also the advisor to the Future Farmers of America, which has taken on a new dimension this year with the addition of five girls to the organization. His leisure time is occupied with his family and his small farm on the outskirts of Westerville. MRS. LILLIAN GOSSETT MR. GLENN GRIFFITH MR. GEORGE HYRMER has been with Wes- terville High as an Algebra I teacher for the past three years. He not only attends many of Wes- tervilles sporting events, but sells tickets to everyone else who wants to attend. Commenting on whether or not relationships between teachers and students have changed since he was in high school, Mr. Hyrmcr feels that his teachers demanded more in the way of discipline. He does believe that students and teachers should discuss differences of opinion using facts rather than emotions and that they should stay within the bounds of respect for each other. MRS. LOUISE JEFFERS began her teaching at WHS just this year. She received her Bachelor ' s Degree in education from Ohio University and, after graduation, returned to her home town of Wakefield, Ohio, to teach at the high school there. Though her Algebra II and general busi- ness classes keep her pretty busy, she finds time to enjoy mi sic. Before her marriage early last spring, she also kept fairly busy insisting that she was not trying to hide her last name, that Jayne was her last name and not her first. But now that she is Mrs. Jeffcrs all her name problems are solved. MR. GEORGE HYRMER MRS. LOUISE JEFFERS 26 -J FACULTY MRS. RUTH KEMPSHALL MR. HARRY LACY MRS. RUTH KEMPSHALL instructs Latin stu- dents through their first amo, amas, amat to their final readings of Ovid and VirgiL She graduated from Illinois State University with a major in Latin and a minor in mathematics and can sometimes be seen helping a student with a math problem hist to keep in practice. While away from her verb conjugations, Mrs. Kempshall attends classes at Otterbein, knits, and plays bridge. MR. HARRY LACY is a true blue WesterviUe High School instructor, having never taught any- where else in the six years he has been teaching. Over the years as he teaches geometry and algebra, he has witnessed the continual growth of the WesterviUe school system. By maintaining a re- laxed atmosphere in his classes, Mr. Lacy helps college bound students to realize early that some- one isn ' t always going to be standing over them to make certain they are doing the work. When he isn ' t proving to students the practicality of the Pythagorean theorem, he enjoys photography, fishing, and hunting. MR. JAMES LANIER greets his Spanish I and II classes each day with a cheery, Buenos dias, senores! and sometimes greets his French I class the same way. Mr. Lanier was graduated from the Ohio State University with a B.S. in Educa- tion, and he is presently working hard on his Masters ' there. His English speaking time away from guarding the doors in the cafeteria is spent with his family and devoted to work in his church. MRS. PENELOPE LAUGHLIN is one of Wes- terviUe High ' s algebra teachers and a Y-Teen advisor. In the classroom, Mrs. Laughlin stresses the importance of doing homework — especially those terrible word problems. She enjoys teaching here and finds much more to work with within our student body than she had at other schools. The homecoming courts have appreciated her helpful advice, and her toy poodle, Phillippe, rendered his beautiful velvet pillow for the queens ' crown. Mrs. Laughlin also enjoyed her participation in the WHS skiing program. MR. JAMES LANIER MRS. PENELOPE LAUGHLIN MR. HOWARD LONGMIRE MR. DALTON LOTZ MR. HOWARD LONGMIRE has the duty of conducting all the choral groups at WesterviUe High School and preparing them for concerts and contests. In his second year at WHS, Mr. Longmire was the anchor man for last year ' s musical Bye Bye Birdie and this year ' s The King and I. In addition to those momentous tasks, Mr. Longmire led his groups successfully through the ordeal of spring contests. In the summer, Mr. Longmire is an avid baseball fan. MR. DALTON LOTZ. Wcstenille ' s French teacher, is thought by most of his students to be one of the most interesting teachers in the world. Mr. Lotz enjoys nature at its best, hiking rough style in the Great Smoky Mounrains. watching the sun rise at sea, or observing the vast .Sahara Desert. He likes to listen to good symphonic or ballet music or the scores from musical comedies. Fads generally don ' t disturb him, but Mr. Lotz commented that some of the girls ' hair-do ' s look like mohair out of a sofa pillow. He finds some of the crazes attraaive. though, and thinks each student should decide what is best for him. 27 FACULTY MRS. NANCY E. LOWREY Judge Short was hailed by all for his decision in Cowpunchers vs. Sadler MRS. NANCY E. LOWREY served as a full-time substitute iti Mrs. Bunce ' s shorthand and typing classes for inost of the year. Coming here from Gahanna Lincoln where she taught home econom- ics the previous year, Mrs. Lowrey was somewhat familiar with teaching shorthand because she had taught that subject during her stint as a student teacher. Mrs. Lowrey, who graduated cum laude from Muskingum College, prefers sub- stitute teaching to full-time instructing because she does not like to be away from her two young daughters, Kristen and Beth Ann. MRS. MARTHA MacKENZIE has taught Eng- lish at WHS for three years. A graduate of Ohio State University, this is the first school in which she has taught. She believes she is lucky to be teaching in Westerville and that this year ' s classes have been better prepared in their homework than those in years past. Her after-school activities include advising the Y-Teens, playing bridge, playing the piano, and reading. MR. DONALD McMEEKIN can be found be- hind a sculpture, under a mobile, or advising one of his students on his most recent masterpiece. Mr. Gomer McMeekin enjoys working with three dimensional designs and painting which give him the chance to express himself in something other than words. He is most interested in helping his high school students in art, but also enjoys teaching the adults in evening classes. He wants his students to think for themselves, though, since creating one ' s own ideas plays an important role in being a successful artist. MR. CARL MILLER, another new face in the revamped social studies department, guides stu- dents through the mazes of American history and government. Although he specializes in events of the past, not-so-ancient history for him is his attendance at Milligan College and Uni- versity of Tennessee, and the two degrees he earned at Ohio State. During the summer Mr. Miller finds himself in the role of the student, as he is working toward his Ph.D. His head isn ' t always buried in books, however, since he enjoys going to the movies and is learning to like smoked sandwiches, possibly because he keeps his lunch in the men ' s faculty lounge. MR. DONALD McMEEKIN MRS. MARTHA MACKENZIE MR. CARL MILLER 28 FACULTY MR. ROBBIE MILLER MR, ROBBIE MILLER has the rough job of trying to point out the importance of studying government to the senior students. He is well known for the advice he gives the seniors when they arc able to pull him away from the facts in the text book. He teaches such revolutionary morals as; Join the army and become a man; don ' t run away and get married — you can get too much loot at a wedding; and just be- cause a Volkswagen is small and meek doesn ' t mean the driver is the same way. Mr. Miller is advisor to the Key Club, National Honor So- city, and the senior class. MRS. NANCY MORGAN has been a senior English teacher at ' W.H.S. for the past three years and this year is also a senior class advisor. Her leisure pastimes include reading, swimming, painting, and eating. She likes animals, especially her cat Herb. Her present goal is to eatn her Masters ' degree and then to teach at the college level. Known to all before this year as Miss Staats, Mrs. Morgan is famous for her interesting, sometimes hilarious, class discussions and for her ability to keep the seniors under control when the discussions get heated. MRS. NANCY MORGAN MRS. NANCY NEAR, fondly known as la profesora , indoctrinates interested smdents in Spanish II, III, and I ' V. A graduate of Hanover College in Indiana, she has also attended Mexico City College, and University of Valencia in Spain, and she often uses her own experiences and colored slides to better acquaint students with the Spanish way of life. Mrs. Near enjoys working with students in extra-curricular activi- ties and serves as advisor to the cheerleaders. She also enjoys knitting, reading, golf, and los Burger Muchachos . MRS. NANCY NEAR MR. ROBERT NEVEL MR. RONALD NOCKS MR. ROBERT NEVEL is concerned principally with passing on knowledge of the business world to Westerville High School ' s future entrepreneurs. He has taught as Westerville for three years, and this year has taken on part of the responsibility of accounting for the funds of various schcKil organizations. Most treasurers of school organiza- tions, who have learned that it isn ' t easy to keep books balanced, have enlisted the aid of Mr. Nevel at some time during the school year. MR. RONALD NOCKS signs the attendance slips presented him with a flourished REN. His students agree that the £ must stand for Exhaust- ing and Enthusiastic. He works his students in speech and dramatics to their full capacirs , but they never notice it because Mr. Nocks himself is so caught up in the subjeas; it is rather like osmosis. Osmosis isn ' t a strange work to Mr. Nocks, either, because in addition to majors in speech and drama at Ohio State, he also majored in biological sciences. His outside interests include advising the Thespians, water skiing, music, sports, and directing the school plays. 29 FACULTY I MRS. SARAH OTT is well-liked by all her world history and government classes. Unfortunately for Westerville, Mrs. Ott will leave Ohio next year to teach in Wilmington, Delaware. Here at WHS, Mrs. Ott is the head of the social studies depart- ment, advisor for the Future Teachers Club, and is also known for her attempts to make Robert E. Lee ' s birthday a school holiday. When she isn ' t talking about her two trips to Europe, she enjoys knitting, her evening school course in painting, and admiring new Bonnevilles. MR. JOSEPH RALSTON is one of the jovial but hard-driving chemistry teachers. He is also advisor to the Bi-Phy-Chem Club. He leads junior and senior students with experience and dedication through the rigors of hydrocarbon structures and weird concoctions of bromine. Mr. Ralston is celebrating his fifteenth year at Westerville High School, and no matter how hard he tries, he just can ' t keep the chalk dust off his coat sleeves. MRS. SARAH OTT MR. JOSEPH RALSTON MRS. LUCY RAVER MRS BERNICE RUCKER MRS. SHARON REDICK MRS. LUCY RAVER enjoys teaching world his- tory because she believes that it helps the sopho- mores to become aware of the rest of the world, to recognize patterns in history, and to be better citizens of their generation. One of the greatest rewards Mrs. Raver has found in her teaching of tenth graders is seeing them later as seniors and graduates and noting how much they have matured in the two years since she taught them. MRS. SHARON REDICK, in her sixth year of teaching, is the family living instructor in the home economics department. During the school year Mrs. Redick and her husband are very busy, but their two-month trip to Florida proved to be an enjoyable summer vacation. In class Mrs. Redick ' s students practice being young adults, as she stresses that the family is still the most important institution. Mrs. Redick has found Westerville ' s girls to be nice, enthusiastic, and well-dressed. MRS. BERNICE RUCKER, a three-year veteran of WHS, instructs seniors in the intricacies of office practice and business law and English. A graduate of Ohio State University, Mrs. Rucker has four children, two of whom were seniors here this year. In addition, to advising the Future Business Leaders, she enjoys bowling, boating, and pink coats. I guess it all started when the South lost the war . 30 FACULTY  Just one more box top, Dave, and you get the A. MR. WILLIAM SADLER MR. ROBERT SHADE MR. MAX SHEETS MR. ROBERT SHORT MR. WILLIAM SADLER is WesterviUe High School ' s nominee for the greatest cross country-basketball-baseball coach in the League. Like most coaches, his mind is occupied with sports; however he does find time to teach physical education and drivers ' education, to work in the fascinating attendance office, and to study for a Masters ' degree, which he has almost com- pleted. In his spare time around school, Mr. Sadler is campaigning against shaggy-haired boys because he fervently believes, Every boy should have a hair cut like mine. MR. ROBERT SHADE, better known as ' Wester- ville High School ' s most confirmed bachelor, en- joys watching the Andy ' Williams Show and Run For Your Life when he gets tired of listening to his stereo and wants to see some action. When passing by one of Mr. Shade ' s American history classes, one can generally ex- pect to hear an Oh. no! echoing in the back of the room. Naturally, this outburst is the unseen soul ' s response to one of Mr. Shades funny jokes. MR. MAX SHEETS, teaching in his third year at WesterviUe High, received his Bachelors ' de- gree in education from Ohio State University. Seeing that freshmen understand the rigors of general science would be problems enough for most people, but Mr. Sheets is also able to handle being an advisor to Smdent CounciL His summers are well-filled, for he coaches the reserve baseball team and sometimes mounts a tractor to help mow the school lawn. MR. ROBERT SHORT is undoubtedly one of the best-liked teachers in all of WesterviUe High. A facult) ' member of this school for 15 years, he is greatly appreciated by his students for the abilit) ' to explain a problem without losing patience. In order to keep up with chang- ing methods. Mr. Short attends extra classes at Ohio Wesleyan. He delights in the instruction of modern math in his algebra and trigonometry classes and gladly accepts the responsibility of teaching in high school the work that has been shifted down from college. He has rwo leisure pleasures, being a gardener and a grandfather. 31 FACULTY MR. LEE SPADE has the responsibility of pre- paring the freshmen for the road of science that is ahead of them. When he isn ' t teaching, he spends his time working toward his Masters ' degree in Educational Psychology with hopes of gaining his Ph.D. and teaching at the coll ege level. Since he admittedly used to wear clod- hoppers to school when he was young, he realizes fads come and go, so he finds little cause to disparage the modern-day fads. As a relief from all the hard work he is doing, Mr. Spade enjoys chasing a little white ball around a big grassy field. MR. RICHARD SIMS MR. LEE SPADE MR. RICHARD SIMS teaches first year algebra and readily admits that he is constantly snowed under by the paper work he must grade. Popular tnth his students because he makes algebra ieem not so dreary a subject as they expect, this instructor worked in the field of civil engineering before coming into the teaching profession. When he does find time to take a breather from the strains of a teacher ' s life, he enjoys photography, cave explorations, and eating out at Dunkle ' s. MR. DALE STARR teaches many Westerville High School students the thrill of dissecting a frog sometime during their science days. Mr. Starr enjoys sports of all kinds, and hii latest adventure is golf. He is an advisor for the Hi-Y and coached the Hi-Y basketball team through a successful season this year. After leaving Mr. Starr ' s biology class, students appreciate the unique mechanism of the human body and have a greater understanding of all forms of life. ? Mr. Starr helps a student witk a skin problem. MR. DALE STARR MR. STEVE TOBIAS MR. STEVE TOBIAS, the friendly tyrant of junior and senior English classes, is following in the footsteps of his wife, who left WHS last year to take care of their new son Andy. The Man in Brown is experiencing his first year teaching and is convinced that the profession is just as great as he thought it would be. Assured that he plans to continue teaching, Mr. Tobias intends to begin work soon on his Masters ' in English. Besides being entertained by Andy, Mr. Tobias enjoys retreating to his private study and restocking his classroom bulletin board with new cartoons. 32 FACULTY MRS. MARILYN WAGNER teaches basic foods and nutrition, advanced foods and twelve weeks of senior home economics to the prospective homemakers of WHS. In the summers when she isn ' t teaching, she and her husband have traveled to the forty-eight adjacent states, Canada, and Mexico. Since she spends most of her day in the kitchens of the home ec. wing, it is easy to see why she ranks eating out as her favorite indoor sport. MRS. MARILYN WAGNER MRS. HELEN WILDERMUTH MRS. HELEN WILDERMUTH attended Stephens College and received her B.S. in Education from Miami University-. This is her first year at WHS, where she teaches freshman and junior English. Probably her hardest job of all is trj-ing to keep her senior home room from starting an insurrec- tion against authoritj ' . Mrs. Wildermuth is half of WHS ' s only husband and wife team; her only comment on this situation was, Isn ' t he cute: She always enjoys reading, sewing, and her Pekinese puppy, Ming Lin Yu. MRS. CLORIS WILLIAMS, who hails from Wadsworth, Ohio, teaches Spanish I. In her first year of teaching, Mrs. Williams graduated from Kent State University with a B.S. Degree in Education. Mrs. Williams, who in her leisure time enjoys reading and viewing sporting events, shares with many other teachers the pet peeve of students who come unprepared to class. MRS. ANN WILLIAMS MRS. CLORIS WILLIAMS MRS. ANN WILLIAMS, the friendly general math teacher, can often be heard telling her freshman classes, For goodness ' sakes, THIMK! At home, she takes care of her three daughters and her husband, who is Chief Deputy of Pro- bate Court under Judge Metcalf. Mrs. Williams believes in quite an impressive philosophy, and she tries to pass it on to her students: If we could see ourselves as others see us, our actions and our attitudes would change. So practice courtesy and respea; then it would be a better world. For, sometimes we are the only Bible some people see. 33 CUSTODIANS Left to right: Franklin Crowe, John Hinnigan, Howard Stockdale, Bernard Keefer, Hubtr Wilcox, George Bailey. Keeping a building the size of WHS in good condition seems an almost endless job, but Wes- tervillc ' s custodians have managed to keep the school in tip-top shape. Undet the leadership of Mr. Glenn Day, the janitors work in shifts so that some one is in the school all day long; one janitor even spends the night here. A little-knowi. fact is that in order to keep the boilers safely heated, all the custodians are required to be licensed firemen. Inconspicuous as they sometimes seem, the janitor corps of WHS is a vital part of the school. CAFETERIA STAFF Cooking for hordes of hungry teen-agers is a job from which most women would run. But this task is diligently taken on by the cafeteria cooks of WHS. Meals are planned a week in advance, then prepared for cooking perhaps a day before. Under the supervision of Mrs. Mary Davison, meals are served two hours a day, five days a week to the streams of students and teachers who pass through the lunch lines. m h I etha Dill Mr, Vinl« r atk.nson.

Security is the last six weeks with an A average. Responsibility is remembering to see Mr. Eiben. The future is a one- way ladder going up. Life is independence. High School is a diving board with lots of spring. Today is adolescence: tomorrow is adulthood. ACADEMIC VARSITY ACADEMIC VARSITY Row 1: Karen Zipperlen. Janet Raver, Diana Delaplane, Sharon Beighey, Bonnie Barrows, Katiiy Wildman. Row 2: Mike Rliodebeck, Kevin Noonan. Jim Scarfpin, Charles Cobb, Eric Zeiters. The Academic Varsity is compKJsed of the top ten or eleven students of the Senior Class. The 1966 Academic Varsity was honored at a Kiwanis spon- sored banquet, and each member received a certifi- cate and a share of stock in The Avco Company. GIRLS ' STATE Karen Foltz, Janet Raver, and Marilyn W ' hipkey were chosen from among a dozen of their classmates to attend the 1965 Buckeye Girls State. Their two weeks at the session, held at Capital University, earned for them an insight into the workings of government. Alternates were Mary Jo Arnett, Diana Deleplane, and Sandra White. BOYS ' STATE Jim Scarfpin and Eric Zeiters were Westerville ' s representatives to the 1965 Bovs State, held at Ohio University in . thens, Ohio. Thev were selected from a group of five students nominated by the school. . lternates were Kevin N ' oonan. Mike Rhodebtck, and Steve Salter.

The future is taking over next September. Today is a mold of wet cement, ankle-deep, and tomorrow it hardens. Good luck . . .

Scholarship is spelling Pythagorean theorem— much less learning it. Security is a date for the homecoming dance. Life is a couple of Rolling Stones albums and getting to- gether at the Dairy Queen. The future is only two more years and being proud of it.

Happiness is a successful trip through the halls unharmed. Scholarship is a passing grade in econom- ics. Achievement is being able to see over the office counter without standing on tiptoes. Challenge is the daily dash to the cafeteria in quest of nourish- ment and the race back to class without losing it. Maturity is hair) ' legs or lipstick. Responsibility is sharing a locker. Life is the right key to a locked door. . nd high school is a new pair of shoes with plenty of room to grow in.

When the Marching 99 steps off down the football field, their appearance represents at least eight hours of practice, not including the individual responsibil- ity of memorizing music. Under the direction of Mr. Forrest Becker, the band performs at all football games and also marches in Westerville ' s holiday parades. Practice for all mem- bers, new and old, begins in August, and uniforms cannot be put away until the following July. Two events marked the highlights of this year. One was the night when the Marching 99 performed at an Otterbein football game, and the other when the band was asked to play at an Ohio State basketball game. Many senior band members will also remem- ber that rain prevented them from marching at the final home football game. Marching Band means a conglomeration of things to its members. It ' s the excitement of cheering the team; it ' s the fear of making the wrong turn and ending up alone on the field; it ' s the rides on the band bus; it ' s rain on the last home game; it ' s the friendship; it ' s the work: it ' s the fun; but most of all, it ' s the pride in supporting the school. 116 MAJORETTES MAJORETTES Kneeling— Lynn Berry, Nancy Nelson, Diane Townsley.

The Red Band participates in district contest each spring and this year entered the A-1 class, joining the largest schools in the area. They came back to Wes- terville with a superior rating, a remarkable achieve- ment for the first year against the most difficult com- petition. In preparation for its winter concert, the Red Band participated in a joint concert with AV hitehall- Yearling at Westerville. Then, at the winter concert, the program was recorded for a long-play album. The White Band joins with the Red Band each year in the spring instrumental program. At this con- cert, the John Phillip Sousa . ward is given to the individual voted the most valuable member of the band. In its third year of existence here, the award was presented to Susan Wenzel.

After participating in the Thanksgiving and Christmas assemblies, a variety show at Otterbein College, and a concert with Canton Glenwood High School, the 60-member group earned the right to compete in the state choir contest by re- ceiving a I rating at the district contest. The choir chained a II rating at the state contest. Other officers of the group are: Jessica Jacober, vice president; Carolyn Anglin, secretary-treasurer; and Kathy Pennington and Cheryle Eberhard, li- brarians.

Director Howard Longmire made the selection. Choralettes stole the show at the school ' s Christmas . ssembly as they sang the 15 minute-long Night Before Christmas in their nightgowns. Some girls wore their hair in rollers, while some carried pillows or stuffed animals. Their number was a pleasant sur- prise to all. In another attempt to be distinctive, the group wore long, pastel-colored formals as they sang in their spring concert. The group also participated in the spring vocal music contests.

The Thespian club is a very large and popular or- ganization composed of theater-minded students from all four grades. Under President Doug Allton ' s lead- ership this year ' s club had several successful activities. It is the Thespian club which takes care of skits for Homecomings and other school assemblies. Well- remembered will be Bonni Hyatt as Jamie Bond flip- ping Evenjob (Paul Beeney) who was trying to steal the envelope containing the name of the Fall Home- coming Queen. Gary Shuster will not be forgotten as the very modern Santa Claus of the Christmas Assembly. It was the idea of the Thespians to black out the gym and use traveling spotlights for the Frac- tured Fairy Tale skit at the Winter Homecoming assembly. Besides helping out with the major dramatic pro- ductions of WHS, the Thespians also perform three one-act plays each spring. Only Thespians may par- ticipate in this project. Cathy Cryan for Trifles, Nevalyn Fristche for A Marriage Proposal, and Gail Snyder for Tea for Three were this year ' s student directors. . n extremely scccessful dance, The Eve of Des- truction, during the football season featured the popular Dantes and fattened the Thespian bank ac- count for the year ' s activities. 124 RB.L.A.

To better aaiiiaint its members with the business world, the Future Business Leaders of . merica pat- tern their club after a regular business. One of the re(]uirenients for membership is that the person be enrolled in one of WHS business courses. This year ' s club took field trips to several ])laces of business, and some of the members attended a convention in Toledo. Each year the club takes on a selling project, and this year sold Wildcat mascot pins during the basketball season. This years officers are: president, Mary .A.nn Phil- lips; vice president, Marianne Burwell; secretary, Peg- gy Wolverton; treasurer.

It is the council ' s job to run all the school elections, plan school as- semblies, promote school spirit, and sponsor the home- comings. This year ' s Fall Homecoming was decorated in the theme of Some Enchanted Evening, and the Winter Homecoming Dance was decked in Queen of Hearts. The Student Council, under the direction of Stu- dent Body President David Lehman and advisor Max Sheets, also supported the purchase of an emergency vehicle for Westerville. It sponsored a successful Emergency Vehicle Week within the school to raise money. The Council also planned and carried out a community ice skating party. The Student Council consists of eight representa- tives from each class. These are not necessarily the class officers. At the end of the 1964-65 school year, the council adopted a new system of electing its mem- bers. Under the new procedure, jjersons desiring a class office or a Student Council seat must submit a petition of a prescribed number of student and fac- ulty signatures. 126 KEY CLUB The Key Club, a Kiwanis- and school-sponsored service organization, became the first student organi- zation to donate a gift to the school when it pre- sented Principal Dana Aukerman with a delu :e bul- letin board to be used in the main lobby for an- nouncements. Among other activities, the Key Club purchased three wastepaper cans for the hallways, presented the junior high school with an Ohio Flag, participated in several charity drives, sold WHS booster stickers, sponsored the King Neptune dance, and joined with the Y-Teens to carol some of the teachers near Christmas. Under the supervision of Mr. Forrest Becker and Mr. Robbie Miller, the club promotes an interest in service and scholarship. To become a member of the club, each applicant must be approved by the advisors and the principal and be voted on by the existing members. This assures that the club is com- posed of the most interested and talented students.

RED CROSS COUNCIL Last year the Vesterville Red Cross Club was changed to a council consisting of two delegates from the Sophomore, Junior, and Senior classes to the Co- lumbus City-wide Red Cross Council. . ltliough the membership was cut do •n consid- erably because of the change, the council remained active in community affairs. After sponsoring a dance, which earned them S200, ihe council was able to pro ide refreshments for a party at the State Hospital and send gift packages to the children overseas.

Danny Hamilton. At their first meeting, the 20 members of the Na- tional Honor Society voted to become an active or- ganization. Their goal was to earn enough money to pay back the student council, which had purchased pins for NHS members. A bake sale held in the fall yielded some money, but it was not enough. Finally, after countless ideas were kicked around, the group decided that a stu- dent-versus-faculty basketball game might do the job. The club got busy immediately, recruiting mem- bers of the faculty and student body as players, plan- ning the refreshment stand (there were dry runs to see how many people one bottle of Coke would serve, using small cups and enough ice) , and publicizing the game. One poster read: Think your teachers are perfect? See your ideals destroyed at the student- faculty game. Both the faculty and the National Honor Society were winners at the game; the teachers boasted an overwhelming victory, and the NHS made a profit big enough to pay the debt several times over. About 40 juniors and seniors were inducted into the National Honor Society in an assembly held in April. These people were voted by the faculty from a list of students in the top two grades who have at least a B average. Character, leadership and service were the other considerations. 133 (j.A.A.

The Future Farmers of America, advised by Mr. William Brown and Mr. Glenn Griffith, is the club composed of VV.H.S. students inter- ested in agriculture or farming. The purposes of the chdj are to practice brotherhood, honor rural opportunities and responsibilities, and to develop the qualities of leadership every Future Farmer shoidd possess. Besides many fund rais- ing projects and banquets sponsored by the club, F.F.A. members added to the list of W.H.S. accomplishments by winning various events in state and local farm competition this year. Ralph Aisel, a member of the class of ' 66, won the State Horticulture Award and was selected as one of the top 5 student horticulturists in the nation. .Among the clubs activities for the year was a ten day trip to Canada. Approximately 25 boys, accompanied by Mr. Brown and Mr. Griffith, made the trip. The club also had a demonstration at the Ohio State Fair and the Westerville Fair. 138 BLENDON TOWNSHIP JUNIOR HISTORICAL SOCIETY H Q «N O BLENDON TWP. JR.

Under the direction of advisor Mr. Joseph Ralston, the club enjoys speakers and scientific demonstrations at their monthly meetings. This year the group took a field trip to Olentangy Caverns. The principal duty of the club is to organize and direct the annual Science Fair, in which all its members must participate. Many Wester- ville science projects have achieved superior rat- ings in local and district contests, and one am- bitious WHS scientist, Greg Koski, competed for national awards. 140 OFFICE GIRLS The office girls act as intermediaries between the students and officialdom. While doing small jobs, such as checking the schedule of a student or teacher, answering the telephone, and dis- tribiuing lost books, the office girls make the office a less formidable place for wary students and visitors. GYM ASSISTANTS A physical education teacher finds it hard to l)e everywhere she is needed during class — in- structing a novice in the finer points of field hockey, finding knee pads for the goalie, and making certain that no one sneaks back to the locker room. It is the job of the gym assistants to lighten the gym teacher ' s work by caring for equipment and helping with the class. LIBRARY ASSISTANTS The library assistants work during their stud) halls to help Miss Elizabeth Passmore keep the library in order. Vhen they aren ' t stacking books, checking passes, or memorizing the Dewey Decimal System, they can often be found sniffing the iioral arrangements which grace the main desk.

CHESS CLUB The purpose of the chess club, now in its third year of existence here, is to activate an interest in the difficidt game of chess. Its mem- bers, advised by Mr. Robbie Miller, hold regu- lar meetings after school to discuss chess and to compete with each other. The club has bought a chess set with dues collected, and its members hope to enter compe- tition with other schools in the future. The enthusiasm of the club for chess can be expressed in this quote from one of the mem- bers: Chess is one of the most profoundly re- leasing games of strategy ever created by man.

(Small compensa- tion) 142 WIZEKAT The school newspaper, The Wizekat, has matured in its second full year of publication. It has grown in size from a four page to a six page publication, published every two weeks by the journalism class. It has grown in journalistic approach, abandoning constant displays of baby pictures and funny picture captions for varying kinds of humor. The Wizekat has also grown in respect from the student body, for this year it has set new sales records and leaves a sizeable deposit on hand to start off next year ' s staff. Writing for the newspaper was not all work and no play for the newspaper staff, for this vear one issue of the Wizekat changed its name to the M ' lzf- krak, a parody issue specializing in playful stabs at the school and administration. The satirical articles ranged from the cancellation of spring vacation to a feature story on the Mid-Eight Dixie Cup Smashing Champion. Fittinglv enough, the U ' izekrak made its first appearance the day before .April Fool ' s. The newspaper ' s masthead includetl Editor-in- Chief Sandv While. Sports Editor Francis Dusenburv, Feature Editor Sharon Beighev. and Photographers Carl Rippel and John Stewart, along with the 24 other staff reporters. 143 RTA. FTA Row 1; Cathy Cryan.

LAB ASSISTANTS The purpose of the Future Teachers of America club is to acquaint the participating students with all aspects of the guidance and teaching professions. This year, with Nancy Cooke as president and Mrs. Sarah Ott as advisor, the members heard many in- teresting programs and talks by persons already in the teaching profession. These speakers included Mr. Robert Short, Mrs. Nancy Near, Mr. Steve Tobias, Mr. Jon Wildermuth, and Principal Dana Aukerman. Members considered the best program the one in which a speaker talked to the club about Project Headstart. At the last meeting a skit was written by Sharon Beighey, vice president, to honor Mrs. Ott, as she is leaving WHS. Besides helping teachers with their classwork and performing other duties related to teaching, Wester- ville ' s Mary Belle Clary Chapter of F.T.A. gives a scholarship to some deserving senior member. This year Sharon Beighey was honored with the grant. The lab assistants are always on hand to supply that needed chemical, biological specimen, or physics experiment kit.. Working in those supply rooms brings special privileges: a private study hall when things are slow, and experiment lab, and the freedom of an early lunch. LAB ASSISTANTS Row 1: Gordon Smith.

SEARCHLIGHT Work on the 1966 Searchlight began in the spring o£ 1965, when the upcoming senior class elected Jim Scarfpin as the Editor-in-Chief of the class yearbook. Selection of a compatible staff and other initial duties carried on through the summer, and into the begin- ning of school. While at school, one hour a day was set aside for principal staff members, in order that they might talk over their duties with the editor, the advisor, Mrs. Busick, or the .American Yearbook Com- pany representative, . Ir. George Lindsay. The jobs of a staff are many: the selling of advertising as well as annuals, the taking of pictures, the writing of all write-ups for seniors, teachers, activities, and candid photographs; proofreading and proofreading again of all copy; the list goes on endlessly. Early in the school year, the plan for a Complete Yearbook (CY) was formulated and confirmed. When the summer supplement of the previous annual did not fulfill the expectations of most students, it was decided that with the CY, all spring events could be given fair coverage, and then Iwund with activities of the rest of the year. For this reason, the 1966 an- nual will be a fall-delivered book. Putting together an annual that the entire school can take pride in is not a task that can be carried out smoothly. The 1966 staff had more than its fair share of trouble and rough spots, but detours were substituted when the assigned route seemed impass- able, and a better path was found. Now the trip is. over; more than a year of work is completed. There is nothing left but the relieved staff members, an- xious customers, and the knowledge that the 1966 Searchlight can never be replaced. 145 ACTIVITIES • Time Out for Ginger, the fall play, delighted audiences at Cowan Hall on November 19 and 20. This was the story of the Carol family: Ginger, a 14 year-old would-be football player; her father Mr. Carol, a not-so-conservative banker; her warm and un- derstanding mother; her two older sisters; and Lizzie, the family ' s sports-minded maid. Bonni Hyatt, as the zany Ginger, romped through the show with characteristic zest. Her portrayal of the tomboy-heroine was wholly believable and thorough- ly enjoyable. A very good performance was turned in by Gary Shuster as Howard Carol. In one hilarious scene Howard re-enacted an entire football game for his perplexed wife. He acted out all the parts, playing first himself, then Ginger, the coach, the other team, and finally, the cheering squad. Carole Johnson did a wonderful job as the gentle Mrs. Carol, who could solve any problem with a bit of love and motherly advice. Other members of the cast included Penny Kinnear, as Lizzie, who was often Ginger ' s only ally; Cherry ■ skins as Joan Carol, a teen-ager with problems of the heart; and Cathy Cryan as Jeanie Carol, a stage- struck 16 year-old. 148 m Qi mi n H The Holy Terror, produced and directed l)y Mr. Ronald Nocks, represented one of Wes- terville High ' s most difficult and rewarding dra- matic presentations. The play was based upon the life of one of the first female contributors to the nursing profession, Florence Nightengale, and her difficulties in fulfdling her career. The Holy Terror, requiring one of the largest and most demanding casts in the history of W.H.S. dramatics, ninnbered over thirty actors and actresses playing roles ranging from nobility to mental patients. Sets were simple. Most of the scene changes and emotional effects were emphasized with lighting and 18th Century costumes. Produced in Cowan Hall, the action took place upon three levels of platfonns which added continuity and yet separation of action as the scenes varied from the royal palace to the Crimean battle front. All the technical advantages of Cowan Hall and the authentic costumes, however, only ac- centua ted the su] erb j erformances of the cast. Each character, no matter how small a part he played, was of significant importance and repre- sented distinct individuality. Cathy Cryan, who was the leading lady as Florence, won the Best Actress of the ear for her excellent {perform- ance. Tom Carlisi as Sidney Herbert and Greg Koski as the hard-shelled surgeon Dr. Poole, shared the male leads with outstanding perform- ances. Much hard work on the part of everyone connected with the play proved that a prac- tically impossible high school undertaking could be produced and jx rformed successfully. 149 J 4 To theater people, the initials S.R.O. can only mean one thing— standing room only. S.R.O. described the size of the crowd that VVesterville ' s production of the King and I drew to Hanby Auditorium May 19, 20, and 21. This musical, directed by Ronald Nocks, tells of the efforts of Anna Leonowens, an English school teacher, to educate the court of Siam. Anna ' s conflicts with the King of Siam provide the plot of the story. Carole Johnson gave an appealing performance as Anna. Her many musical numbers included I Whistle a Happy Tune, Hello, Yl)ung Lovers, Shall We Dance, and Getting to Know You. Danny Hamilton received the dramatics department Best Actor award for his outstanding portrayal of the domineering King. Jay Denton as Louis and Woody Searles as Chclulonpkorn, the sons of Anna and the King respectively, provided an interesting contrast. Chris Lafferty and Doug Allton were excellent as Lady Thiang, the King ' s head wife, and Kralahome, the King ' s right-hand man. Barb Johnson was Tup- tim and Gary Shuster was Lun Tha, the young lov- ers of Anna ' s song. Not to be left out is the show-stopping ballet, in which the dancers, led by principal dancer Marlynn Singleton, performed a Siamese rendition of Uncle Tom ' s Cabin. Technical difficulties as a result of Hanby ' s anti- quated theatrical facilities interrupted two of the performances, but it was generally agreed that King and I was the most-enjoyed and best-attended pro- duction yet given by Westerville High School. 150 The Seniors were treated to the first of the end-of- the-year activities by the teachers with the presenta- tion of the Facuky Follies. The teachers did their stuff after first enjoying the fellowship of the Senior Banquet, closed to all underclassmen. Then, after the comedy of watching their respected, sedate, eru- dite pedagogues transform themselves into typical short-skirted, madras-shirted teenagers, the seniors and their dates proceeded to the Desert Inn to enjoy the music of Chuck Selby at the Senior Dance. While visions of combed hair and cocktail dresses were still fresh in the seniors ' minds, their thoughts turned to- ward the coming Friday, officially proclaimed as Grub Day. 151 The Junior Class led the Seniors up a Stairway to the Stars when it sponsored the Junior-Senior Prom, held lor the second time at the Otterbein Campus Center. Alter three hours of dancing and star-gazing, the couples traveled to Northland Cinema to view the star-filled film, The Unsinkable Molly Brown. For those who were still awake, a break- fast was served in the cafeteria, completing a truly heavenly evening. 152 With a final smoothing of gowns and flipping of tassels, the class of 19()(j began its first of two trips down the ramp toward the gjninasiiim. The Rev- erend Mr. Richard Ellsworth delivered the baccalaur- eate sermon, challenging the seniors to make their addition to the ailidt world an honest one. The graduation processional was the last of many things for all the seniors. It was the last lime that everyone woidil be together as a class, the last time to talk to many friends, anil the last time that the seniors woukl ever have to worry about lining up in alphabetical order. . s the diplomas were awarded to the anxious graduates, they realized that this was really a conuncntenicnt. for after twelve years of shelter, they were finally commencing on a life of their own. SPORTS VARSITY CHEERLEADERS What would a football game, or pep rally be like without the presence of Willy Wildcat ' s cheerleaders? They have worked closely with the ir advisor, Mrs. Nancy Near, anci the various coaches to introduce new cheers and to write special skits for pep rally produc- tions. All the cheerleaders have succeeded this past year, through hard work, in encouraging school spirit and heightening team morale.

Greg Koski, Mitch Alvarado, Lou Lord, Steve Hilller Doug Fuller Contrary ' to the belief of many people, a high school football team does not begin its season on the night of the first game. For two to three weeks before this opening game, the players and coaches have been enduring the arduous drudgery of two-a-day summer practice sessions. This year at Westerville High School, the summer practices began on August 20, 1965. On this date, the new head coach, Charles Burner, and his assistants, Carroll Meadows, John Campbell, and Jon Wildermuth, began instructing approximately fifty varsity candidates in the finer arts of football. These summer sessions lasted until September 7, three days prior to the opening game with Whitehall. Friday night, September 10, was the kickoff of the 1965 Westerville football season. The opposition was the AVhitehall-Yearling Rams of the Central Buckeye League. Things started booming right away for the Wildcats, as Darrell Ballinger took the open- ing kickoff and returned it eighty-seven yards for a Westerville touchdown! The try for the two point conversion was successful and Westerville led 8 to with only ten seconds of time gone in the first period. Westerville ' s kickoff was then returned by Whitehall some seventy yards for a Ram touchdown. The extra point attempt was stopjjed by the Cats. With barely twenty seconds gone in the first quarter, the score was 8 to 6 in favor of Westerville. The W ildcats ' luck did not hold, however, and the game progressed into a one-sided affair with AVhitehall taking the vic- tory by a 36 to 8 margin. The following week, the Cats were as;ain at home, playing host to their country neighbors from Big Walnut. Westerville has never lost to the Eagles, and they used this jinx and some hanlnosed footliall to hang a 12 to defeat on the Eagles. On September 2-1, the Wildcats journeyed to Ga- hanna-Lincoln for a game with the defending .Mid- Eight League C;hampions. It was the optener for both teams in the .Mid-Eight pennant race. For Westerville, it jjroved to be a night of frustration. It seemed that every time the Cats got something started, either a penalty or a fumble would pop up and halt progress. Though Gahanna won .SO to 6, the Vesterville team showed some signs of jelling into a football ma- chine, if they could just eliminate the costly and needless mistakes. The ' ildcats were away from home again the fol- lowing week for a game with the highlv regarded London Raiders, a team which had allowed only six points to be scored against it in three games prior to this encounter with Westerville. The Cats tcK)k the ojjening kickoff and promptly marched for a touchiiown. Imi London roared right back and took a commanding 22 to 8, half-time lead. Westenille ' s Darrell Ballinger had a good night rushing and the team looked good as a whole although losing to London . ' i6 to 1-4. . fter these two disheartening road loses, the Wild- cats came home on October 8 to play for a tremen- dous Homecoming crowd. The team ' s record was an unimpressive one win and three losses. Coach Burner and the team knew that tliis game was a must win situation. The team took the incentive and tattooed the hapless Grove City Greyhounds with a 44 to ])asting. Darrell Ballinger. iK-hind great team block- ing bv Paul Beenev, Jeff Briggs. Frank Hance, Lou Lord. .Mike Rluxlebeck, Tom Town le . and . lan Wolf, tore through, over, and around the Hounds for five touchdowns. Westerville lolleil up SIS yards total offense in running up the biggest score since 1960, a 51 to smashing of Big Walnut. This was the night that everything fell into perfect positior for the Wildcat team. 157 Mr. John Cambell, Mr. Carroll Meadows, Mr. Charles Burner, Mr. Jon Wildermuth, Mr. Al Bowen, Mr. Larry Kershner With the first league victory of the 1965 season under their belts, the Cats made a jaunt to Mifflin the following week. The game turned into a rout for Wseterville as the Cats rolled to a 46 to 22 victory. Greg Koski, at quarterback, was a passing whiz as he connected on all eight of his attempts. Wingback Mike Rhodebeck caught six for 110 yards. Darrell Ballinger was a standout in the rushing department again as he bulled his way for four more touch- downs, thus scoring leader. After these two straight victories, the Westerville team journeyed to Mai7sville for an important league encounter with the Monarchs. The game was billed as a battle of equals with both teams showing a 3 win, 3 loss record. The contest, played on a rain- soaked, soggy field, was a defensive battle with neither team being able to score in the first half. Then in the third quarter the Monarchs broke away a 54 yard touchdown run. This proved to be the deciding factor as neither team could cross the goal line again. The 6 to defeat was a bitter one for the Cats; a victory could have boosted them into second place in the league standings. The succeeding week ' s game with Hilliard was selceted as the High School Game of the Week by Channel 4, WLWC-TV, in Columbus. Films of the game were to be shown on local television the fol- lowing day. Things looked promising for the Cats when Mike Rhodebeck returned the opening kickofF 55 yards to the Hilliard 25 yard stripe. Westerville went on in for the score and took a 6 to lead. By halftime, however, Hilliard had come back to lead 14 to 6. The second half was a nightmare for Wes- terville as a fumble and an interception were used to great advantage by Hilliard. The Cats went down to edfeat by a 37 to 12 count. The next Friday night, November 5, was the last league game for 1965. The Wildcats ' opjjonent was Grovejxjrt. The Cats needed the win badly to boost this season ' s record above that of 1964. The Wildcats played together as a team and they played very well. They handed the Cruisers a 36 to 8 shellacking. This was a fine ending to the Mid-Eight careers of 15 Westerville seniors. Coach Burner said, This was the best game, and greatest team effort put forth the entire season. The final game of the 1965 football season was with Reynoldsburg on Westerville ' s home field. The Purple Raiders came into the game with a 7-1-1 record and the County League Championship all wrapped up. It was supposed to be parents night at Westei-ville, but the weather had other ideas. The rain fell and the field was drenched and looked like a sea of mud even before the game started. The Parents ' Night festivities and the band ' s final per- fomiance were cancelled as a result of the downjx)ur, but the game went on, in six inch deep mud. Neither team was able to score in the first half, but the Rey- noldsburg power wore the Cats down in the .second half. The Purple Raiders took home a 22 to victory. As a team in 1965, Westerville rolled up 1926 net yards in 10 games. Darrell Ballinger, 5.41 yards per carry, alone accounted for 1098 yards. The team aver- aged 4.63 yards per carry. Ballinger led in kickoft returns with 6 for 170 and an average of 28.3. The team totalled 178 points with Ballinger the individual leader with 94 points. He got 15 touchdowns and two extra points.

These factors provided the Cats with a respectable eight win, six loss slate for league play. The team practiced in earnest for two weeks prior to their opening game with perennially tough Linden McKinley of the City League. During many of these sessions the cry of You donkies, put the ball in the hoop! could be heard echoing through the hallowed halls of W. H. S, November 24, 1965 came and went and enough said about the opening game with Lin- den. On December 3, the Cats journeyed to Mifflin for the first Mid-Eight game of the new season. The Westerville team proceeded to down the Cowpunchers 44 to 38. Senior captain, Jim Scarfpin, led all scorers with seventeen points. Gary Limbach, junior forward, added ten more. The following week the Cats were host to Gahanna Lincoln in another league battle. The Wildcats came up with a big twenty-two point second quarter to put the Lions down by a 60 to 56 count. Junior Craig Hall had the hot hand, bagging nineteen points to lead all scor- ers. The next night the team journeyed to Lon- don where they absorbed a disheartening 78 to 49 beating. Hall led Westerville scorers with ten points. The week of December 17 to 24 the Cats played two home games. It was a joyous week- end for Westerville round ball fans. On Friday night, the Wildcats trounced Groveport 56 to 44, with Hall leading the way with sixteen fol- lowed by Rick Hitt with fourteen. On Wednesday, the Cats pulled an upset by beating Grove City 64 to 57. Down by four points going into the final quarter, the Cats held the Greyhounds to ten points while burn- ing the nets for twenty-one of their own. Jim Scarfpin ])oured in twen ty points and Craig Hall added nineteen more. However, it was a tremendous team efTort that brought the vic- tory. This game was one of the highlights of the season. These two victories raised the Cats ' league record to 4 and 1. Things looked bright but the worse was to come. After losing two games, to Pleasant View and Linden again, (Holiday tournaments) the team got back to league play on Januai7 7, 1966 when they traveled to Marysville for a meeting with the Monarchs. The Cats fought hard, but went down to a 63 to 51 defeat. Craig Hall and Sen- ior guard, Dan Keating led the team with four- teen and thirteen points respectively. The following night the Cats played host to league-leading Hilliard. Our team was game and never quit, but Hilliard had too much and handed Westerville a 75 to 62 loss. Senior John Barr led the Wildcats with fourteen points. 168 Westerville toured to Grove City for their return game the next week. The Cats were handed a fifth straight defeat by the Grey- hounds, 5-1 to 43. John Barr again led Wester- ville scorers with twelve points. Nothing seemed to go right for the team. On January 21, the pieces fell back into place, and the Cats defeated Mifflin for the second time, 70 to 59. Craig Hall led with twenty j oints and Jim Scarfpin collected eighteen. After dropping a non-league meeting with Reynoldsburg, the team went to Gahanna for a game with the Blue Lions. It proved to be a wild one, lasting through two overtimes. Craig Hall made a fifteen foot jump shot to tie the game at the end of regidation time. At the end of the first five miniue overtime, nothing had been decided, so another was necessary. The Wildcats scored four big points while holding Gahanna scoreless to take the shakey victory 51 to 47. Hall scored seventeen points, Scarfpin thirteen, and Hitt twelve to ice the win. London then came to Westerville for a re- match and this time things were different. The Cats outplayed the Raiders all over the floor and came away with a convincing 61 to 49 vic- tory. It was another example of fine work as the scoring was balanced and the defense strong. The Wildcats went to Groveport riding a three game win stretch in the league. Craig Hall turned in another sparkling twenty point per- formance and coupled with the rebounding of Jim Scarfpin it was plenty to give Westerville a 60 to 49 victory. It was a fourth straight win in league competition and upped the team ' s record to eight wins and four losses in league play. February 11, 1966, was the date set for the 1966 Homecoming at Westerville High School. Marysville was to provide the opposition and the team was up for this one. Captain Jim Scarfpin got into early foid trouble and the team had an uphill struggle, but they came on and lost by a heartbreaking single point. The loss hurt, but no one coidd blame the team. They gave it all they had. The final league game was no picnic either as the Cats an 87 to 67 drubbing at the hands of league champion Hilliard on the Hilliard floor. Thus the Wildcats closed league play with an eight and six record ami a tie for third place in the league, a sizeable improvement over last year ' s fifth place finish. In the opening round of the Central District AA Tournament the Cats were defeated by Worthington 62 to 42. The team ended the sea- son with an eight win and eleven loss record for all games. Craig Hall and Jim Scarfpin were . 11-Leaguc selections with Hall being third leading scorer in the Mid-Eight with a fourteen points-per- game average. Other members of the team, all of whom are important were: Seniors, John Barr, Paul Been- ey, Rick Hitt, Dan Keating, and George Raica, and Jim Wallace; Juniors, Rick Clapham, Rob Coad, Steve Jennings, and Garv Limbach. With the aid from retiuning lettermen and the help of the Reserves, who were league champs, the Westerville squad for 1967 shoidd be improved.

It became the only reserve team to win an undisputed Mid- Eight title. The team also compiled a 14-4 record during the season. Losses came only from Linden McKinley, London and twice from Grove City. First year coach, Jon Wildermuth, directed the team on sound basketball principles throughout the season. He stressed defense and rebounding, because strength in these departments produces a consistent winner. Oddly enough, the defense minded Wildcats set a new league season scoring record, averaging al- most 42 points per game. Consistent performers were Alan Wolf, Chris Longhenry, Jeff Wenzel, Steve Jennings, and Trevor Newland. Good balance came from the bench con- sisting of Frank Hance, Greg McDermott, Ron Schorm, Dave Collins, and Phil Adams. 174 FRESHMAN BASKETBALL FRESHMAN BASKETBALL Row 1: Harry Schutte, manager, Dave Sproul, Steve Traylor.

All these were in preparation for the Mid-Eight Wrestling Tournament, held in Grove City ' s Gymnasium. The Cats finished third in the tour- nament but the team felt they could have done better. Paul Clymer, Jerry Hatcher, and Jim Head all finished second in their respective weight classes, and Rick Knapp, Tony Zingarel- li, Guy Moffitt, and Jim Williams took third places. Rollie Lambert and Dick Meyer were the big winners for Westerville, who took Mid- Eight Championships in their weight classes. The team then competed in the District Tour- nament and finished in tenth place out of some forty teams. Paul Clymer made an outstanding showing by finishing second in the district in the 127 lb. class and advancing to the State Wrestling Tournament where he finished among the top sixteen wrestlers of the state in his class. 176 177 i Lynn Berry, Senior Chervl Reich, Senior Leslie Eagrlen, .Tunior Barbara MacKenzie, Junior Diane Wall er, Sophomore HOMECOMING PRINCESS AND COURT A new idea in production of school assemblies was initiated by the Thespians at the Winter Homecom- ing Assembly.

They were preparing for the opening doubleheader with Hartley of the Central Catholic League. The team battled bad weather through these begin- ning sessions, but came through prepared as they defeated Hartley on April 2 by a 2 to 1 score. Senior Mike Meyers was the winning pitcher. Tom Carlisi led the Wildcats with two hits. Westerville dropped the nightcap l.S ,to 5. Before league play began, the Cats defeated Brookhaven of the City League. Mid-Eight League play began on April 9 when the Wildcats journeyed to Mifflin for a doubleheader. In the first game the Cats, behind the three-hit pitching of Mike Meyers, defeated the eventual league leaders, 3 to 2. The team dropped the second game 5 to 2. The Cats then lost to DeSales, split a double- header with Gahanna, and lost to Whetstone. Westerville then swept a douijleheader from league foe, London. The Cats won the first game 7 to 1 with Meyers as the winning pitcher. The Westerville team escaped with a 7 to 6 decision the second time aroimd. Third baseman, Jim Scarfpin had two hits and Rick Hitt did the mound chores. The Cats then lost to Whetstone, Brookhaven, and Marysville; defeated Marysville in the sec- ond game of the doubleheader, and split an- other two game affair with Hilliard. 182 The Wildcats lost a close one to Groveport 1 to 0, but came back to trounce the Cruisers 13 to 4 in the second game. John Barr and Jim Srarfpin both got three hits to lead the team to the win. The Cats continued their big hitting by bombing New .Albany 15 to 5. This time it was Dan Keating leading the attack with three hits. Mike .Meyers was the winner on the mound. On the final day of league play, the Cats split a doubleheader with Grove City, losing the first game 3 to 1 and winning the second -4 to 3. The Cats finished league play with an eight and six record which was good for a second place finish behind .Mifflin who was at nine and five.

All were seniors. For all games the Cats :ecord was a respec- table twelve wins and eleven losses.

The 1966 VVesterville track year began as if it would be a promising and improved track season. The returning 1965 lettermen started three-a-week practice sessions as early as January. Head Coach, John Evans with his assistants Carroll Meadows, and Phil Detamore wanted to work the returnees into shape for the Central District Indoor Meet held at the French Field House on the Ohio State University campus. The trackmen were eager and they made a good showing in the meet held March 12. After the indoor meet Coach Evans moved prac- tice sessions outside and the rest of the students in- terested in trying out for the team were called to prac- tice at the track. Practices were hard ' and sometimes long, but the runners knew it was necessary if they were to compete with the tough teams cbming up in the schedule. The first outdoor meet lor the 1966 Wildcat team was . pril 5 with defending .Mid-Eight Champions, Gahanna, and arch-rival, Mifflin. The meet was held on the Gahanna track. The Westerville cindermen did not make a good showing as they finished with 29 points to 32 for Mifflin and 96 for Gahanna. Coach Evans was quick to say that his team needed much more hard running in practice. So the runners and throwers and jumpers practiced. Westerville was better prepared for a meet on April 12 with Grandview. For the participants it seemed much more like a swim meet than a track meet. The rain poured down throughout the event and the track was a sea of sloppy mud. But not even this could stop the Wildcats today as they defeated Grand- view by a 70 to 57 margin. Steve Pearson scored a first in the 120 yard high hurdles and a second in the 180 yard low hurdles to lead the VestervilIe track- men. 186 Two days alter iheir win at Grandview the cinder- men ot Westerville racked up their biggest win of the season when they tromped Cohinibus Academy by a whopping score ot 104 to 23. The Cats took first ]jlace in every event but the 2 mile run. Steve Pearson and Mike Rhodebeck led the team with two first place finishes each. In the next two meets the Wildcats split. They defeated Hamilton Township 70 to 48, but lost to always strong VVorthington 92 to .S5. The team ' s next encounter was a real thriller with Mifflin. The meet was a tight battle all the way with Westerville winning on the strength of John Paulus ' 2 mile run victory and a winning performance by the mile relay team of Wally Ervin, Dave Lehman, Dan Mault, and Mike Rhodebeck to cinch the deci- sion. The final score was 64 for Westerville to 63 for Mifflin. Coach John Evans was the happiest of all. Westerville competed in the Gahanna Relays on .April 22 and the Whitehall Invitational on April 29. The Cats finished 10th at Gahanna and 8th at White- hall. Dave Lehman set a new meet record at White- hall in the 880 yard run. His time of 2:00.4 was also a new Wseterville High School record. The Wildcats then defeated Olentangy and Ohio Deaf in succession before losing a tough one to White- hall by a score of 66 to 61. On May 7 the Cats competed in the Mid-Eight Track Meet at Gahanna. The Wildcats finished in fourth place improving on last year ' s fifth plate fin- ish. .Mike Dawley won the pole vault event and Dave Lehman copped the 880 yard run to give Westerville its only two first place finishes. Lehman set a new league and school record in his event with a time of 1 min. 59 sec. flat. Lehman went on to win the 880 at the Sectional Meet, finish fourth in the Central District meet, and seventh in the Regional Track Meet which is only one step away from the Ohio State Track Meet. Dave ' s best time was 1:57.9 which now stands as the school record. Other school records were set this year by Mike Dawley who did 12 ft. in the pole vault, and by Lou Lord who threw the shot put 48 ft. 61 2 in. Mike Dawley also received the golden track shoe which is presented to the team ' s leading scorer every year. The 1966 Westerville Track Team has established some records and standards which will stand for at least a year and probably longer. It couldn ' t have been accomplished without the coaches, team, and most of all the desire and spirit of the boys.

Of course you didn ' t and we at Otter- bein don ' t know it either because it just isn ' t true. However, we wish it were true,- we wish these stately towers could tell stories. We know they would recall the days when students from Wester- ville wouldn ' t think of going to Otter- bein and perhaps even tell of the time that Otterbein didn ' t really care about these local students. Naturally, these towers could relate many success stories, and some tragic ones too. The towers could probably tell some great stories but there is really no chance of this happening. Times have changed from the days when Westerville High School students weren ' t interested in Otterbein and from the days that Otterbein took a rather indifferent attitude. Today, top-notch students from Westerville, are becoming active merri- bers of the student body,- they are leading the way in campus life and are meeting with tremendous success in the fields they pursue. These stu- dents are choosing Otterbein because Otterbein offers a strong educational program, has a well balanced social program and because Otterbein is recognized as one of the finest small colleges in the midwest. And Otterbein is especially Inter- ested in Westerville High School stu- dents because from experience we have found them to be top quality students, genuine leaders and well ad- justed individuals. Otterbein knows first hand that a Westerville High School student has received excellent training from an exceptionally fine faculty, has had the use of modern facilities and the ad- vantage of a good administration. Otterbein College is proud of the Westerville City Schools and is happy to extend its congratulations to the graduating seniors . . . we hope we will continue the warm, friendly re- lationship we have with the Wester- ville school system and their fine Stu- dents for many years to come ... at least until our towers start talking. 199 ( onaratulati ' f Lon6 an d Eed Wlsk e6 ELLIOTT-COOPER-BARR INSURANCE AGENCY BLENDON REALTY 39 N.
