HIGH SCHOOL 'I-OLED0,0HlO THE ORACLE FOREWORD IEHE ANCIENT Greeks consulted their oracles to decide grave problems concerning the future. However we wish to interest ourselves not only in the things that are to be, but also in bringing back pleasant memories of our high school life. For this purpose we, the Annual Staff, present this, the third edition of The Oracle. In Melnomzm DR. D. C. CUMMINS MARY E. XWOLFROM Page Two THE URACLE- .. . MR. CHESTER L. MESSMORE O MR. MESSMORE, our principal, we dedicate this edition of The Oracle. As the priests of the ancient oracles answered the questions of their Greek followers, so he has faithfully answered ours and has cheerfully guided us through our four years at Whitmer High School.

DAVIES MEMBER PRESIDENT MEMBER VicE-PRESIDENT Washington Township Board of Education IN THE fall of 1924 the need of a high school was felt to be neces- sary for Washington Township. To satisfy this need a high school was established. By 1927 the school had so grown in size that a First Grade Charter was granted by the State of Ohio. The great number of pupils attending the school made it evident that a new building would soon be needed. And so, in 1928, the present site was bought and the building erected. Throughout the Township there have been other improvements. Horace Mann and Westwood Gardens Schools have recently received new buildings. Additions have been made to Wernert's, Whitmer and Hopewell Schools. The generosity of our Board has been manifested by the following: Fencing the athletic field, furnishing free text books. Year after year, according to the demands made, improvements have been added. In every way Washington Township, thanks to the Board of Education, has advanced farther and farther towards the goal of higher and better education.

Solon raised up on his feathery pillow to see Eunexus standing in the door. What's the trouble? asked Solon. Your majesty, did you not request to be called early for the trip to your friend, the Oracle of Delphi? Oh, yes, he exclaimed, and hurriedly got out of bed. Eunexus brought his robe and slippers and Solon went to the dining hall for breakfast. Solon told him that he.would call him as soon as he had finished. Eunexus ordered the carriage to be ready, and proceeded to get the King's robe ready for wear. Solon soon called for Eunexus with the excuse that he was not hungry. The servant knew, however, that he was very anxious to see his friend. ,They made themselves ready for the long journey. It took them about two hours to reach the Oracle's house, but the King was not worrying about the fatigue of the journey, for he wanted very much to see his friend. The doorman asked Solon if the Oracle was expecting him. He answered to the affirmative and was permitted to enter. Solon and Eunexus found the Oracle of Delphi seated at a large table in his huge library, laughing uproariously. Solon was astonished, but became frightened as he stood for a moment and watched his good friend. Quickly he rushed over to him and seized him saying, My good friend, what's wrong? The Oracle of Delphi turned around quickly and saw that it was Solon. I have just been looking at the queerest and funniest thing that I have ever seen. Solon looked at the table and saw that the Oracle had just been gazing into a crystal. What is it, he asked. It's the prophecy for the class of 1952, of Whitmer High School. Shall I tell you what is to be seen? The Oracle began: Frances Atwell, the girl who was always chewing gum in school, is work- ing in a rubber factory in Akron, Ohio. Raymond Brown and Wilson Keeler have a business of their own-they are piano movers. Helen jablonski is a telephone operator falasj on the foreign exchange. Alice Tassell is testing scales at the Toledo Scales Factory. Bernard Wilson is an organ grinder. Margie Taylor is an old maid, and Marge Weidinger is a farmerette. Albert Morette had studied to be a lawyer for eight years, only to lose his voice the day after being admitted to the bar.' Carl Neuendorf, whose highest ambition was to be an aviator, belongs to a submarine crew. Page Eighteen THE ORACLE Mary Beals is an energetic newspaper reporter. Raymond Davis is a confirmed bachelor. Lewis Gillette and Russell Holzscheiter own a dude, ranch out in Nevada. Harold Vischer is a motorcycle cop, strictly enforcing the speed laws. Harold has married Iris Kaser. Dorothy Davis and Vivian Dawdy, who were always and forever powder- ing their noses, are both working in a flour mill. DeNell Meyers and Catherine Baus, both of whom wanted to bemission- aries and live out in the wilds of Africa and convert the heathens, are living in the heart of New York City. Virginia Pugsley has become a beauty expert, her specialty is face lifting. Alda Bodette has married a midget only three feet high. Mary Roberts is a fancy skater. John Wagner, always a whiz in chemistry, is jerking sodas in a drug store. Margie Brown is working in the Akron factory with Frances. Margie is making rubber stamps. Paul Crosby is an Arctic explorer. Alice Ranville and Evelyn Mortemore have become popular radio singers. Robert Bender and Robert Thornton, who always wanted to be great political bosses, have finally gotten a start in politics-as street cleaners. Helen Bucklew has won the women's championship for an endurance flight. Parker Corbett is an undertaker. Henrietta Harvey has succeeded Clara Bow as the It girl of the movies. Charles Blacklidge is working for a fish hatchery catching wild snails. Frieda Brown has become a soap box lecturer. Jessie Jacobs is the elevator girl in a hospital.

Myrtle Brown and George Mallett, true to all our expectations, have married, Myrtle is a fortune teller and George is an Egyptologist. Alma Stephans is the owner and the manager of a minstrel show. Delbert Robison and Williain Thomsen have opened a detective agency. Page Nineteen THE ORACLE Doris Mock has won first prize as the best dairymaid at the World's Fair. Roy Melber is the ribbon clerk in XVoolworth's Five and Ten-Cent Store in Toledo. C john Bonawit is a mountain climber, he is the first man to climb Mount Everest. Robert Davies has succeeded Mr. Lincke as math. teacher at dear old Whitmer. Helen Shatelrow is a member of the Civil Service Commission. Adeline Warrington, who was always entering beauty contests, has a position posing for a cartoonist. Clifford Welever, our football star, has a job at Notre Dame making hundred yard runs down the gridiron-behind the lawnmower. Solon burst out in laughter when the Oracle has completed his reading and had turned around to join him. Fate surely played some queer tricks on those people, but I suppose they are all succeeding in whatever they are doing. Solon replied with a laugh and bid the Oracle a fond farewell, forgetting the many questions he had come to ask. ALDA BODETTE 32 ROBERT THORNTON SZ CLASS HISTORY Early in the fall of 1928 the present Senior Class began their high school life proper. At that time the class was composed of ninety boys and girls, all eager for a higher education, and most of them were willing to work and to work hard for it. Leah Jones was chosen the president of the Freshman Class. She proved to be a very capable and industrious leader. During the sophomore year many of the fellows held important positions on our athletic teams. A sophomore play and several successful parties were given, but best of all, Whitmer's place in County scholarship contests arose. Under the leadership of Charles Blacklidge, we passed a very interesting year. DeNell Meyers was our president the third year. Be an Optimist and the junior-Senior banquet, given in honor of the graduation class, were out- standing attractions. The ball room was decorated in oriental style with pyramids and sphinx to make it realistic. Now, in our Senior year, we have exceptional confidence in our leader, Harold Vischer. For the last four years we have worked together, played together, studied together, and perhaps even sorrowed together. The class has dwindled to almost sixty, but the spirit we had when we were freshmen still prevails. We are on the threshold of a new life. The world is expecting the best that we have. We are willing, even anxious to go on. -DENE LL MEYERS. Page Twenty THE ORACLE WHITMER'S ALPHABET A-is for Annual, our blue and gold, We'll like it better for the years untold.

XV e elected as our oiiicers Amy Van Wormer, president, Leona Welton, vice-president, Laura Smith, secretary, and james Travis, treas- urer. Miss Blackburn was our class advisor. One of the most outstanding events of our senior year was a dance held in the Trilby Log Cabin the first part of the year. Under the supervision of Mr. Krieger and Miss Zindler, we pre- sented a play called Betty's Last Bet. With the co-operation of the student body and the cast this was a great success. As we neared the end of the year, we looked forward with anxiety to the closing events. First came the prom. Excitement reigned supreme that evening and all who attended enjoyed themselves thor- oughly. In May was given a banquet sponsored by the juniors who entertained us royally the whole evening. Lastly came graduation. That evening, as we thought of leaving dear old Whitmer and our high school days behind, a lump rose in our throats, and it was hard to choke back the tears, however, realizing that new students should come to take our places, we bade our teachers and friends good-bye with a smile. This year a few members of our class have returned to take up post-graduate work. This group includes Ralph Meeks, Oliver Horn- ing, Louis Grenon, Edna Dewey, and George Baker. -EDNA DEWEY 31', Page Twenlyvllaree t ... l........,,,,,.,,A ,,,, ..... ,... --A.,.,,..V Y ,.. ----:J - -W --V--v--my 1 ' E49 if X TQ rr HE ORACLE f P1'w'2:fc11f,..

It originated in the sophomore English classes, under the direction of Miss Hay. At this time the classes became interested in writing newspaper articles, editorials, and advertisements. So great an interest was shown that a staff was elected and work was started on the first edition, That year there were several editions issued. In the next year circumstances were such that publication was discontinued for a time, but this year work was again started. A new staff was elected. This year is the last that the members of the class of '52 will participate in the publication of the newspaper they originated. Wfe hope that in oncoming years members of the other classes will derive enjoyment we have from our paper, THE FLYING Wi Page Tlvi1'l.1'-fm MEMBERS OF THE SENIOR GLEE CLUB . HE ORACLE THE WHITMER GLEE CLUB This is the fourth year of our iWhitmer Glee Club. This organization has been steadily growing and improving so that now we can boast of a representation of forty singers in the select All-County Chorus. Early this year the All-County Chorus, under the direction of Mr. Ralph Runyan, and the All-County Orchestra, under the direction of Mrs. Florence Kukuk, gave a very creditable joint concert at the Civic Auditorium for the Northwestern Ohio Teachers' convention. The W'hitmer Glee Club also gave a concert in November for the West Toledo Masonic Lodge. Both the orchestra and the glee club have entertained several times for the Booster's Club this year.

The club was the result of the efforts of Ray Schuler and several other boys to start an organization of this kind in our school. Seven boys were initiated to membership at the Y. M. C. A. by the Scott Senior I-li-Y Club. Oliver Horning was installed as our first president. Mr. Marks was selected as advisorg other officers were chosen and our club began to funtion. Several weeks later, six new members were initiated by our own group. The first year's work of the club was considered a success, as several projects were completed.

Welever scored with a place kick which won the game for us. The score was 3-0. The following week we journeyed down to play Bowling Green. Whitmer played with determination that was a little outclassed. The score was 12 to 0. Everyone was looking forward to our next game, which was with DeVil- biss, and was to be played at Libbey. The game was very thrilling. We scored several times only to be called back. The game ended a tie, 0 to 0. Our next game was with Rossford and was played at Whitmer, our first game at home. Everyone was looking forward to a victory, but were defeated by a strong Rossford team. The score was 10 to 0. The next week we were to play at Perrysburg. Wet and rainy was the day, and the field was very muddy. The Perrysburg team was not fast enough to stop the powerful Whitmer team, and the game ended with the score of 21 to 14. Our second game at home was with Sylvania. There has always been keen rivalry between Whitmer and Sylvania, and though we looked forward to an easy victory, at the end of the game we were surprised to find ourselves taking the small end of the score which was 12 to O. The next week we were to play Blissfield and we were determined to win, as Blissfield had beaten us last year. But the Blissfield team was a little too strong for us, and the game ended with a score of 21 to 13 in Blissfield's favor. The following week we traveled down to Tiffin to play Tiffin Calvert. Here we met another stone wall, but this was no disgrace, as Tiffin scored more points than this against other high schools of Ohio. The score was Whitmer 12 and Tiffin Calvert 27. Our next game was with Findlay, at Findlay, on Armistice Day. Our team was clicking again, and the Findlay team didn't have a chance. The game ended with Whitmer 25 and Findlay Reserves 0. Our last game of the season was with Point Place, another rival. Our team said they would win this game and they did, after displaying a wonderful running attack and unusual pass work. This was the last game for nine of the players and they ended the season with a smile on their faces and a victory to their credit with a score of 19 to 6.

It was only by meeting these emergencies and by means of a good deal of hard work that they could present such a record as we see above-a record of which any school could be proud and which many schools do not equal. The reserve varsity team deserves to be commended for the fine playing they did in the time of need. Some of these fellows will repre- sent Whitmer next year, and gauging by their team-work, they are very capable of upholding the high standards that Whitmer has previously set. Taken as a whole, this season is very gratifying. In all the games the boys showed excellent sportsmanship, team-work, and an earnest- ness to be the victor when the final gun was fired.

Of the twelve games played, Whitmer won seven and lost five. The most exciting game of the season proved to be the one with Clay. It was only in the fourth quarter that Clay succeeded in making the winning basket in the very last minutes of play. The girls' team-work was one of the outstanding features of all the games played. It will be noticed that the opposing teams never scored over four points against our girls. But, on the other hand, they defeated their opponents on an average of nine points for the games won. This alone would indicate that they had excellent co-operation. Page Fifty-three E THE ORACILE AUTQGRAPHS 7g rrQW www? fW,1.wLlD1f' X . . Awww? ,.
