The courage of these men of America and the sacrifices they make in behalf of Democracy shall be forever engraved upon our memories. Life in a Miniaiure Democracy-Qur School Since Life Magazine has gained such vast nation-wide, even world-wide popularity in the short time in which it has been published, we realize that pictorial-journalism is what the people want. Their enthusiasm for Life, with its abundance of photographs, has caused it to be the most looked-at magazine in our school library. As the old proverb goes One picture is worth a thousand words, so we Americans who believe in stream-lining everything from literature to the automobile, make pictures take the place of words. Since Whitehouse High School is a little America in itself, the students are typical Americans who love American things. Our school might be called a miniature democracy: We have a Chief Executive four superintendentl, a Supreme Court four school boardl, a Chief Justice four county superintendentj, a Vice-President four high school principalj, a Senate four teachersj, and a House of Representatives four student councilj, and last but not least We, the People Cus kidsj who enjoy a varied life at school. Within the covers of this book, you will find pictures of it all. Behold, we give you the Whitonian! Incidentally-if there is any similarity between this 1942 Whitonian and the currently popular Life Magazine, it's quite intentional-honestly I We are proud of our cover, and why not, for we have never had one like it before. Through the latest methods in making book covers, we are able to make OUR Whitonian quite unusual and pleasing to the eye. If you find the book a bit thinner than usual, remember we had to conserve paper for defense. We, the Seniors, hope that you'll find the book as filled with goodness as have been our years spent at Whitehouse School. Behold-this is the entrance to our school! Yes, its a very important door because we have passed through it daily for several years. Even after our graduation, we will still think of this as our entrance, and our building, for it is a part of us and our love for the American way of Life.

RYDER Lucas County Superintendent of Schools i. ! 1 14:11 Our Chief Executive Mr. McCabe's Message: Splashed over the pages of this Annual of 1942, is a panorama -of pictures describing your school career. 'l'he bright colors of the cover serve to remind us of the loyalties and friendships of school days. Should this volume in some small measure bring to you a realization that school is more than studies, more than activities, more than work and play, then the work of the Whitonian Staff will notfhave been done in vain. It must impress upon you this one important fact, that School is LIFE. May it ever serve to remind that it is your duty to face LIFE'S PROBLEMS with the courage and loyalty of those who fight with McArthur on Bataan Peninsula. The vision of what tomorrowmay bring .is clouded with uncertainty. Listen 'then to the words of an ancient poet: The Salutation of the Dawn Listen to the salutation of the dawn. For yesterthy is already a dream, Look to this day! And tomorrow is only a visiong Forlit is life, the very life of life. But today well lived In its brief course lie all the verities Makes every yesterday a dream of happiness And realities of your existenceg And every tomorrow a vision of hope. The bliss of growthg Look well, therefore, to this day! The glory of action: Such is the salutation of the dawn. The splendor of beauty. -From the Sanskrit. si ,F s,.Qw.w-smwnw winamp Q-1 'fd JIU Left to right: Mrs. Mary Koenigseker, Mrs. Ivah Frye.

The activity program was carried on, as in other years, under the supervision of the Student Conmcil. The purposelof thefcouncil 'are as follows: 1. To offer training for life in a Democracy. 2. To give opportunity for initiative and responsibility. 3. To teach the pupils to 'work Tfor thefcommon good of all. 4. To promote understanding in school, home and community. 5. To develop desirable traits to be used later in a democracy. 6. To offer training for leadership in later life. The council supervises the handling of all activity funds, provides for auditing treasurers' book of the school-organizations at 'thefclose of the year, administers the point system and also acts as the clearing house of student opinion. A few of fthe 'outstanding things idone by the Student Council throughout the school year were: 1. The purchase of two new megaphones forfour cheerleaders. 2. The sponsoring 'of two educational lectures. 3. The revision of the three-year-old point system. 4. The talking over of the responsibility of the stencils from the commercial department. 5. The selection of one member, Anna Allman, to represent the student body on the Committee of Evaluation now active in the iWhitehouse School.

It is quite difficult to make the Senior believe that, for the last twelve years have been so lilled with adventure that time seemed to fly like magic and twelve years was really no time at all. It's a glorius thing, being together for twelve years, and growing up together. We were timid and sorta scared in our first year, but we managed to get through all right. The class was so big that it was divided into two groups, so we didn't have much of a chance of getting acquainted then. Our teachers were Miss Serelda Slimp and Miss Gladys Knarr. Our third grade teacher, Miss Geneveive Coulon, gave us our first examinations, and oh, what examinations! In the fourth grade, when Miss Mildred Long taught us, we had our try at dramatics in the operetta, JACK AND THE BEANSTALK. After we had been told of our success in this operetta we considered ourselve old troupers along' this line and many plays followed. Now that we are on top of the hill and looking down, we can think back with fond memories of the days we spent on the stage. Following JACK AND THE BEANSTALK came THE KING SNEEZES, THE GALLOPING GHOST, CHERRYBLOSSOMS, CHISELING CHISLERS, OH DOCTOR, and GIRL SHY, which was presented as our Senior play. Our fifth grade teacher was Miss Dorothy Keener. The sixth grade was an exciting- year because it was the last year before we becare full- fledged members of the High School. Again we had two teachers, Miss Ethel Neitz and Miss Nettie Belle Clayton, who taught us the fundamentals of being young ladies and gentlemen. Catchinglon quickly to these lessons fwith a few slips here and therej we became quite dignified and stately in our doings and less dependent on teacher. Because of our developing independence, Miss Jane Libbe, our seventh grade teacher, became merely our advisor in the class meetings which we held. By this time Roland Studer and Vemor Bucher displayed their ability as leaders of the flock, and 'were elected president and vice-president respectively. CLASS OF 1942 AS FOURTH GRADERS The eighth grade, the grade which brought us close to Senior High, made us still more inde- pendent and again we elected class oEicers, the leaders that year being Willis Finical and Vernor Bucher, who became the president and vice-president. This was an especially good year for higher education because we were invited to attend the trials promoted by T. W. Thomas, our eighth grade teacher. Not only were these trials educational in teaching us to obey the laws made by our fellow citizens, but also we learned how to make them, thus relieving the teachers of ome of their burdens. We, the graduates of 1942, have always admired the high school, and were eager to become a part of it. This we did eventually, becoming Freshmen in 1938 with Mr. Daniels as our sponsor. Several students showed talent in leadership and were elected class officers. The president was again Rolland Studer and Vernor Bucher was elected vice-president. Mary Bucher learned to take notes by being elected secretary, and June Cochenour learned the meaning of the word money, by col- lecting it-she was the treasurer. junior Heller ably represented the class in Student Council. The Sophomore, junior and Senior grades were whirlwinds of excitement that never subsided throughout the entire three years. Ball games, plays, operettas, dances, scholarship tests flook below and see the beauty, brown, and brains of our Senior Scholarship teamlj, religious programs movies that we made ourselves, candy sales and numerous other things kept us dashing here and there-never an idle moment. The excitement that accompanies the coming of the class rings, banquets-especially the very formal junior-Senior Banquet-were all a part of becoming a Senior in Whitehouse High School. Oh, yes, twelve years is rather a long time from a chronological viewpoint, but it hasu't seemed long at all to us, the Seniors. And what of the future? Of course, that remains to be seen: but we can say that three of the girls in our class, June Cochenour, Roberta Sprink, and Geraldine Townsend, have already said Yes to the important question, an dare now wearing engagement rings. Our only hope and wish is that our future be as bright and as full as our past has been. Sincerely, THE CLASS OF 1942. OUR BRAIN TRUST l. A 1 , .if A QQ3 ' i' , , f.

Let's take the love affair first. Dick Barry Uohn iStruhsakerl is very much in love with Lindy Lou Evans U-Ielen Greenj, and vice-versa, but Lindy's uncle, T. Jlfimothy Tweedsome 1Da.n Telemaj has certain objections. Tweensy as he is affectionately called by beauties Patsy, Patricia, and Prunella Uune Swineheart, Fritzie 'Sipher andabouella Ryerson! tells Dick that until he has earned 51,000 Lindy Lou will remain single. Dick, who realizes the?S1,000Iisn't hay, is in a quandry until he and his pal Big Boy Roberts fWilbur Perryyput their .heads together. Now enters the beauty contest, and for the time being Dick disappears andsimlhis place steps another Lindy Lou, who also is stepping into the beauty.contest. Of course you and I know that the second Lindy Lou is really Dick, incognito, but the only person in the cast who knows it is Big Boy. Meanwhile, let's not forget the jewels. These .very valuable jewels belong to Tweedsy's fiancee, the Duchess of Londonberry 1Faith Weberl. They are the attrac- tion ,which brings Benjamin Blockstone 0Melvin Noakerj and his secretary, Ethelburt 1 Freeman Ireanj gto the Tweedsome Long Island Estate. These two gentlemen are really a couple of jewel thieves, disguisedwas an important movie producer and company. How- ever, unforeseen dilficulties to these crooks arrived inthe form of Delores Del Monte QKathryn Sprinkl, who is peeved at 'the real Blockstone because of a few broken prom- ises concerning a movie career. This is 'a merry mix-up if ever there fwas one, but all's well that ends well. Dick wins the 51,000 beauty contest and Lindy Lou. ,He helps Delores Del Monte, who is really a G-woman, capture the crooks. The duchess retains her jewels, and gets Tweedsy. 'Then the curtain comesdown as Big Boy, who has made a proposition with Patsy, Patricia and Prunella that he would marry the girl who took first prize in the beauty contest, rejoices that heican still remain a bachelor.

LIFE AND MUSIC BoYs' GLEE CLUB' 'This is a man's world and we must make our own music. Thus a group of high school boys met and organized a Glee .Club in September under the direction of Miss Kear. . A new experience for most of us, we iirst had to learn to sing together. It is our arm to grow and to enrich our musical repertoire. We gave proof of our potentialities when we presented a spring concert for thefP.-T. A. We are proud to have a boy's quartet, Carlton Bauman, Dan Telema, John Strauh- saker and Ira Ackerman, fwho sang for -various occasions. Roger Crosby, Joe Ritenour, Rolland Studer, Carl Wilson, Olin Ryerson, Rodney Farthing and the members of our quartet represented us in the County 'Chorus at Whitmer. Our officers for the year were President, Dan Telemag Vice-President, Stanley Cheskig Secretary, Vernow Bucher: Treasurer, Carl Wilson. UGIRLS' GLEE CLUB W D Passing down the hall, I heard sweet strains of music. Wondering where it came from, I stopped at the first doorway, and what do you think I saw? Fifty girls, with their mouths opened wide, and being directed by Miss Helen Kear. I stood in amaze- ment, for I could hardly believe that the music was coming from them. One informed me that they sang at a P.-T. A. program, and that sixteen of them were selected to sing in the All-County Chorus, May 8, at Whitmer I-ligh School. Soon six pretty girls stood lbefore me and sang. That was our sextette, announced one of the members. Their names are Ruth Benson, June Swinehart, Helen Green, Mary Wittes, Louella Ryerson and Kathryn Sprink. Staying a while longer, I discovered that it was an organization with the following officers: President, Mary Bucher: Vice-President, June Swinehart, and Helen Green and Kathryn Sprink, Secretary and Treasurer respectively.

Not in picture: Bessie Vollmsr. After the summer's vacation, we located and polished our homs, practiced a few scales, gathered together our music ,and met early in September for our first band rehearsal of the year. Although our group was small, we tried hard to improve ourselves individually as well as to learn to play well together. By the end of the year, the group felt duly proud to have accomplished this good. Our plans are to build a larger organization and a well-balanced band. We played for various occasions throughout the year, the most important being our Spring Concert in conjunction with the Toy Band May 1. One of our valuahle.members, Bessie Vollmar, will be lost by graduation. . Kathryn Sprink, Doris Bucher, Bessie Vollmar, Jerry Kiger and Louella Ryerson were members of the 100-piece All-County Band which played for the county musical at Whltmer High School LUCAS COUNTY MUSIC FESTIVAL After an enjoyable yearfof singing with the Glee Club and the Chorus, the following students were chosen to represent Whitehouse High School in the Lucas County Music Festival which took place May Sth at Whitmer High School: Ira Ackerman Ruth Aldrich Carlton Bauman Eva Benson Ruth Benson Annabel Bucher Lillian Bucher Lois Bucher Mary Bucher Roger Crosby Doris Sieja Rodney Farthing Fritzie Sipher Helen Green Roberta Sprink Emestine Jason John Struhsaker Joyce Packer Joe Ritenour Jean Royster Olin Ryerson Rolland Studer June Swinehart Dan Telema Carl Wilson Mary Wittes S-I PRINCE OF PEACE CONTESTENTS Standing: Robert Sprink, Lois Reed, Margaret Studer. Sitting: Bessie Vollmar, Kathryn Sprink. THE PRINCE OF PEACE PROCLAMATION CONTEST Not only is Public Speaking taught at Whitehouse, but also the students go forward in oratorial activities outside of school to prove that they can ably represent the school along this line. Never before has Whitehouse shown such enthusiasm as was shown this year in the Prince of Peace Contest and never before has a student of our school come through with such llying colors as did Margaret-Studer, a Junior, who not only won the local contest, but also took first place in the Lucas County Contest, and went on to even greater achievement. After Margaret had received her second medal, she competed against a large group of talented students in the Northwestern Ohio District Contest and starred above them all by winning first place. Margaret Studer has proved to us that perfection is attain- able through persistent elfort. Our hats are off to you, Margaret, and it is our hope that Whitehouse will continue to tum out orators like you. We can be proud of our whole group of contestants, Roberta Sprink and Lois Reed, who won second and third place in the local contest and Bessie Vollmar who also gave good proclamations. GOING TO SCHOOL!ONE BR GHT MORNING PQI! N I I ,. an-, J-, f,,f,. fc. 3 1 J , .xii .wnmmr f LIBRARIANS ' As I entered the doorway of the study hall, I noticed the students were as .quiet as mice, except for the people going toward the 'rear offthe room. Where were they going? Why, to the library, of course. I sat where I was prettyfwell concealed 'and then said to myself, I'll see just what goes on in here. Oh! There goes a student, my first victim. He now stands before the librarian. Shl I .want to hear what he has to say. I would like a Chemistry book by Black and Davis, please. The 'librarian took only a few seconds to get the book. She handed the boy a slip lofmr to sign, and then removed the card from the book. A complete llle ls kept of all leaving the library. As I was about to leave, I ran into a young lady. I smiled and said, I beg your pardon. She stopped to talk a few minutes and I found out that she was -Miss Harriet McKnight, the chief engineer of ithe library. She explained how proud she was of the library and of those who helped to make it what it is. Let Me Remember Beauty The tender curve of little moons, A Bock of birds against the blue, The Game of peach trees in the Spring, The monntain's far extended view. The gracious smile, the gentle word, The kindly action-let these be Within my heart a well of joy Symbolic of LIFE'S harmony.

This year's football practice started much as it has in years gone by, with all the stiff joints, lame musclse, sore, blistered feet, etc., except that there was something in the air, something which seemed to put the boys through their paces with more pep and spirit. This spirit, combined with the hard work of Coaches Thomas and Rathbun, produced a team that will be long remembered in the football history of Whitehouse High School. The first game was with 'Wayne here. The boys really got started this game and ran up the highest score for a football game in W. H. S. in the last four years. Off tackles, reverses, sweeps, guard bucks and passes were combined in an attack which netted a score of 42-0. The following Friday the boys traveled to Liberty Center for a game in their lighted stadium. Liberty had a very scrappy team, and they gave the Tigers quite a run before the final whistle blew. The Liberty boys had the ball on the one-foot line as the result of a penalty, but in four tries they failed to push it over. On every play tried, the whole Whitehouse team rose up and moved the Orange and Black team back. After the storm had passed Whitehouse ,walked off the field with their second victory in two starts, 6-0. The touch-down coming early in the first period with Wilson scoring on an off tackle. Next in line was Holland. The boys had evidently been scouted at Liberty Center by the Holland team for they strengthened their line to hold off our crashing formation. After a few plays the team found they could.n't go through the line, so they went around it. The results being Struhsaker scoring twice and Wilson once for a score of 19-6. On Friday, Oct. 10, the team traveled to Swanton in quest of their fourth victory. The teams seemed to be very evenly matched in weight and height. The field was very muddy and softg but that didn't slow the Tigers up much. The first half saw Whitehouse score three times, twice on reverses with Struhsaker scoring and once when Bucher intercepted a pass and raced 60 yards for a touch-down. The rest of the game was pretty much in favor of Whitehouse, as they threatened to score twice. The final gun sounded with a score of 18-8. This being the fourth straight win of the season The next Friday Whitehouse traveled to Wauseon. All was merriment on the way for the boys were out after their fifth game in five starts. After everyone had pulled and tugged his suit on, the coaches convinced us that Wauseon was going to be no pushover. They also made it clear in our minds that if we wanted to win, we had to take charge from the beginning. This we proceeded to do, the sum total being 19-0. The touch-downs were scored in the first and second quarters. Struhsaker and Bucher crossing the goals with the pigskin.

INTRAMURALS Intramural games were set up principally to give boys athletic training and to provide -enter- tainment for the rest of the high school. Participants were able to secure credits for honor awards. The football intramural games are held the eighth period of the day and are run as a tournament. This year there were six teams, a total of 60 players, coached by senior boys. Cal Wilson's team copped iirst place honors and the blue ribbons by defeating Bud Haynes' team. Intramural basketball games are held during the noon hour and provide interesting after-dinner entertainment for all who attend. Marv Big Sherm Sherman's team walked away with the undisputed first place honors by defeating each and every comer. An inter-class tournament was held this year, the seniors taking first place honors. In an effort to pin the seniors ears back, an all star team was formed and a game was played the night of the B. A. A. Banquet. The All-Stars' quest failed to the tune of 30-32. The final game was with Ottawa Hills on their Held. The way it was all doped out was that we should run all over them, but before the game was over everyone had his share of thrills. Whitehouse scored first and failed to add the extra point. In the third quarter Ottawa Hills scored and added the extra point. This was the first time that the Green and Gold was on the tail end of a score. The boys were apparently not satisfied with this score, for they took the kickoff and roared down the field to pay dirt. It took exactly six plays to put the pigskin uver the goal line. The extra point was added making the score 13-7. Later in the third period the Tigers took over the ball on their 30-yard line and in iive plays scored again and added the extra point. The score, 20-7. The foe was held at bay remaining time and Whitehouse ended their football season undefeated, un-tied and running their victory string to 10 straight wins.

The team had a very successful season and won nine out of fifteen games. Throughout the season the Whitehouse cagers seored'478 while the opponents scored 439. This gave the Tigers an average of 31 points per gameg theilr opponents .averaged 29 ipoints per game. Although the eagers hit a low percentage of their shots, they won games because they were strong fdefensively. Plenty of scrap and a strong defense brought 'the Tigers through the season with a good record. On the :team were: Captain Carl Wilson, Rolland Studer, Bud Haynes, Vernor Bucher, Clit! Bucher, Zymont Strzelecki, John Struhsaker and Herbert Myers. These are the boys who were runners-up in the Lucas County Class B Basketball 'Tourna- ment at Maumee. Five of the carsity members will graduate. They are Carl Wilson, Roland Studer, Vernor Bucher, Bud Haynes and Him Bucher. These boys did a good job and should be congratulated for their good playing and fine sportsmanship.

They won 11 games and lost two. Because-the cagers had a. good combination bof speed and height, they were able to out-class and out-play 1-nearly all of their opponents. The Tigers scored 394 points during the season while their opponents scored 179. The B squad averaged 30 points per game and their opponents averaged 14 points per game. Coach Rathbunqwas very proud lof the players on his team and was justified in being so because the players were the best sports and the finest players that have ever played on the B squad 'for Whitehouse. Members of the team were: Wendell Low- rence, Marvin Sherman, Danny Telema, Gale Heft, Stanley Cheski, Gerald Hall and Freeman Irelan. Even though most of 'theJ B squadpplayers will move to the Varsity squad next year, the school expects to see a fine second team for the coming season ddue to the good :record set by this year's Junior High team. JUNIOR HIGH BASKETBALL TEAM Coach lhthbun and Coach Thomas.

They lost but two games out of six, making a season's1avera,ge of .667. In the regular season, they defeated tWaterville twice, Monclova twice and lost once to Holland. In the tournament game, Ottawa HiHlls emerged the victor. The team is composed of a 'large number of boys whoshould, in time, develop into a very good team.

Whitehouse scored early and took a 5-0 lead. The lead was diminished to 5-3 as the game progressed, but was unchanged as the final ball was pitched. Wilson and Noaker took up the pitching chores and turned a good performance. Friday, April 24, found Whitehouse baseball team at Monclova. By this time we were having pretty good baseball weather and the whole team was in pretty good shape. Wilson and Noaker pitched good ball, and with the whole team slugging the ball all over the lot, we coasted to a 7-2 victory. Monday, April 27, was the Lucas County Tournament. This year only four teams were entered: Whitehouse, Holland, Monclova and Ottawa Hills. Monclova easily defeated Holland 17-3, but Whitehouse in the second game, was forced to go to 10 innings before defeating Ottawa Hills. Now left in the tournament were Whitehouse and Monclova. Thursday, April 30, was the final game of the tournament. Whitehouse scored one run in the iirst, seven in the third, and added live more in the sixth inning. After obtaining a good lead, Coach Thomas substituted in his lineup, thus giving almost everyone a chance to play in the championship game. This is the first time since 1937 that Whitehouse has won the baseball tournament. The boys who helped to win were: Wilson, Studer, Sherman, Struhsaker, Lawrence, Haynes, Strzelecki, Talmadge, Bucher, Heft, O. Strzelecki and Noaker. With the District tournament still to be played, we can well assume that the Tigers baseball season was as successful as the team of '41 which lost but one game. BOYS' ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION . At the September meeting of the B. A. A., we chose the following olficers for the year: President, Carl Wilsong Vice-President, Kenneth Haynes 5 Secretary, Dan Telemag Treasurer, Vernor Bucher. The need for new baseball uniforms was discussed and, as a result of this, the organization sponsored a drive to raise money. Skull caps and license plates were sold by the members throughout the school and the community. ' On Friday, April 10, the annual banquet climaxed the year's activities. After the dinner the usual speeches were made by outstanding members of dilferent team sports, and the various athletic awards were presented by Coach Thomas. The main speaker of the evening was Mr. Harry Straub of Toledo, Ohio. The evening was rounded olf in true athletic style with a fast and furious basket- ball game between the Seniors CChampions of the Interclass tournamentj and the All-Stars la team composed of the best players from each classy. , GIRLS' ATHLETICS The girls' Intramural and Interclass Tournaments held at noon were especially popular this year. Some record-over 50 girls came out for each noon tournament. Lillian Longnecker and Vivian Lybarger, head of sports, were in charge of keeping time and score. Miss Wernert and some students were officials. SOCCER Ouch--boy, did somebody kick me? Skinned shinsl Come on girls, get in there. Kick that ball in the goal. Keep your arms up! Don't touch the ball!

I thought I would like to put in my two cents worth, so I hope you will print the following Cif it is printablej. This is a dream I just had: As I stepped up to the airliner, I just happened to glance at the stewardess. just a matter of business, as I was chief talent scout for Warner Sisters Film Company. Well, anyhow, she interested me for I was sure I'd seen her somewhere before. It couldn't bel It wasl Mildred Whalen! I hadn't heard anything about my classmates for a long time, so Mildred told me that June Cochenour was abroad with her arch-duke husband. Just then somebody came up behind me and slapped me on the back. I turned around and found the owner of the hand was Nelson Rader. He was co-pilot on this airliner. Did I trust myself to ride with him? He added quickly that Melvin Andrew was the Captain. Melvin shulfled up just then, all excited. He had just come from a wedding. I quickly congratulated him but he said he was the best man at Wayne Fisher and Betty Sherburne's wedding. The airport announcer announced that our plane would take off in one minute. We all climbed aboard. As the door was about to be closed, a woman dashed in and took the seat next to me. She was Dr. Anna Allman, Chief Chemist of Dew Pond Laboratories. She was so surprised at seeing me that the only words I could make out were chemical formulas. Finally, she was able to talk and believe me she could talk. Her husband, Joe Lipinski, was over in Africa as a mis- sionary to the Pygmies. Anna also added that Ruth Karns was private secretary to the president of LaSalle Motor Company and that C'arlton Bauman and his wife, Geraldine Townsend, were starting up a plant to manufacture cars of Carlton's design. By now our plane was high in the sky. Suddenly squadron of fast army planes came up so close that I could easily see the leader. It was Cliff Bucher! I waved at him, but he didn't see me. Our plane soon arrived at our destination. Bidding Anna adieu, I hailed a taxi. I happened to notice the driver, who proudly showed me his badge for being the safest driver in America. fThe name engraved on the medal was J. Hellerj. As we sped along, he asked me if I had heard about Franklin Miller. Junior told me he was now chief engineer on a coast-to-coast streamlined train. Junior added that joe Ritenour had a large airplane factory and Ken Haynes, that man about town, was Joe's chief sa esman. I just happened to glance out the window at a farm. The name on the barn was Rolland Studer. I told Junior to stop and we went in. Rolland said his wife, Bessie V., and their two children, Mary and Harriet, had gone to town to shop. I asked him if he meant Whitehouse and he said Yes . Whitehouse now had a population of 5.000 and still growing. Mayor Ted Montion was running the town very efficiently. Rolland said Uncle Carl Wilson had just bought the ad- joining farm. Carl and 'his bride, the former Mary Bucher, were going to raise pigs. We left Rolland and went to Whitehouse. Myl How large it was. Passing down the main street, I noticed a large building. The sign said, Ruthy's Bowling Alley -Ruth Aldrich Talmage was manager. I stopped in to talk with Ruth and she told me her husband, Dewey, was up north on his vacation. Ruth asked me if I had heard that Mr. and Mrs. Roger Crosby fthe former Ruth Steinbrecherj were going to Alaska' to prospect for gold. She also told me that Loretta Bucher and Lila Lee McGilvery were owners of a large dress shop in New York. I gave Ruth some inside dope on Hollywood. Lola Mae Roach was starring in a new iilm, The Iceman Who Came to Dinner. The radio newscast told us of the appointment of Ira Ackerman as head football coach at Ohio State University. Ruth told me that he and Josephine Struth were planning to be married right after Junior won his first football game. Glancing at a newspaper, I noticed an article about Russia's minister to the U. S. A. Reading further, I noticed the name of Florence Faith Smith. Why, Florence and the Minister are to be married next week and her friend, Viola Rygalski, is making her debut at the Metropolitan Opera Company in New York, A week later back in my olfice in Hollywood, I turned on the radio. A wom.an's voice started pouring out of the loudspeaker. I knew that voice couldn't belong to anyone but Roberta Sprink. As I listened. she was saying that she was very happy to be president of Tibet! Well, well, welll Suddenly another voice started talking. This time it wasn't the radio. It was my father telling me to get up. With a sigh and groan I arose. Some dream, eh, Editor? Dreamily yours, VERNOR B. BUCHER.

Literally he's in the iifth or sixth gradeg figuratively, he's in every grade from kindergarden to the senior class. Hmm-must be a pretty smart bird, you say. Well, yes, Oscar is a pretty smart bird. Oscar's our pet crow. . Don't think that he's just anybody's crow though. No Sirl He chooses his associates even as you and I, of course, he's courteous to everyone. Every person that passes by can hear his cheerie Caw--caw Cwhich is crow language for What's cooking, good looking? j but only a favored few can ever get close enough to pet his small, blueblack head. Oscar's no ordinary crow either. Now I ask you, what ordinary crow would come to school? What ordinary crow has a hobby? Or rather, several hobbies? For our Oscar has more than one means of passing his spare time. Oscar is a connoisseur of rare objectsg he plays baseballg he tames wild animals, and he sings. Sings! Why, who ever heard a crow singing! Is that what you're asking? Well, to tell the truth, Oscar can't carry a tune very well, but he does hop to the lowest branch of a small tree lOscar' been grounded, you know. His left wing is brokenj. Well, as I said before, he hops on the lowest branch of any small tree and gives out with Caw-caw. Haw-haw. Ah-qua! QThis is really a hot arrangement of the Hut-Sut Song in code., As for taming wild animals, Oscar's a regular Clyde Beatty in minature. Any of the school kids can tell you how wild about birds Old Tom, the cat, is. For a while everyone was rather scared that Oscar would turn up missing one day, because every time Tom Cat looked at our poor, little innocent Oscar, his eyes would burn with a hungry light and he would slowly lick his feline chops. But now! Oscar takes one look at Tom, and Tom turns and walks in the other direction. Now about the collection of rare objects. Oscar is just and about shiny thing and simply cannot resist picking them up and taking them to his private bank, or perhaps I should say banks because he never uses the same one twice. Oscar is quite athletic, too. The other day he made quite a spectacle of himself on the practice Field in back of the school. The fourth graders were having a very line time when up walks Oscar, who parked himself on home base and stayed therel That is until one of the players ran from home to second base instead of to first. Well, our Oscar knew that wasn't right so he chased the boy all the way to second. Then he parked there for the rest of the game. Yes, sir, our Oscar is quite athletic. There is also a miscrievous streak in Oscar. He loves to untie children's shoestrings, and chase them, and tease them. Sometimes he even scares them, but he is so sweet and apologetic afterward that the youngsters cannot possibly hold anything against him. No, sir. Our Oscar is no ordinary crowl 'fw' I snNDwncH SMI-I op I Z uNc.l-15.5 ' SHORT ORDERS - Pop ' I fce CREAM -' CHNDIES I XM:-n'rEHousE,Omo Pnopaasmess - .L.sAH BUCHER.
