The journalism Classes of Whitmer High School 55 30 Whitmer Drive Toledo 13, Ohio Proudly presents for The Senior Class THE 1952 ORACLE FOREWORD The student historian occupies an unusual niche in the high school hall of fame. If his work is good it is taken for granted that such is as it should be. If his work is mediocre or below standard, he soon knows it. He cannot hope to receive the plaudits of the crowd nor the applause of the audience. His sole compensation is the satisfaction of doing his job well. The Journalism Department has, as one of its most important assignments, the publishing of The Oracle. This is a history of the current school year. The class- work has consisted largely of the work involved- gathering the material, arranging for the photographs, editing the copy and pictures, and making layouts for the printer's direction. Completed and placed in your hands as a true record of this year at Whitmer, The Oracle represents far more work and creative talent than it might seem to indicate. Only a close observer of the Staff could properly evaluate its work. We hope that our effort will be mirrored in your satisfaction and continued enjoyment of this book. Down through the many years we hope you Will treasure it as one of your choicest possessions. A. H.

But if someone were to ask you to state, in your own Words, what friendliness means, you would surely find it hard to describe. Friendliness is something that you cannot buy, beg, borrow, or stealg neither can you expect to have it Without a little work or effort. It actually doesn't take much to be friendlyg just a little common sense and respect for other people. Whitmer has achieved a goal which few schools have attainedg mainly, the reputation of being friendly. Not only is friendliness shown to the people Within its walls, but to everyone, whether they are or are not known by Whitmerites. 4 DEDICATION RALPH C. PRITT S To one of Whitmer,s most loyal fans this twenty-second edition of the Oracle is dedicated. Mr. Ralph Pritts, mechanical drawing teacher and sports trainer, is this great fellow. He was born in 1903 at Chauncey, Athens County, Ohio, and graduated from high school in 1923. He worked in a coal mine after graduation to get money to go to college. He attended Ohio University at Athens for one year and then taught a one-room school with all eight grades for one year at Morristown, Ohio. He went back to the University for a year and then started his coaching career at Green's Run High School the following year. He taught there for two years and decided to return to school to complete his work for his Bachelor of Arts Degree. He graduated from Ohio University in 1931. After graduation he taught at Hollister High School for eight years as Coach and Industrial Arts Instructor. He had several championship basketball teams there. He left Hollister to go to Caldwell High School to take a similar position. He was there three years and came to Whitmer in 1939. Mr. Pritts started the annual homecoming ceremonies and the bonfire which is usually held the night before the homecoming game. He schedules the games for all sport events, and sees that the fellows are well-equipped. Mr. Pritts belongs to the Side-Line Quarter-Backs, and is Secretary of the Athletic Council. Although he is a busy man, he has found time to build his own home. When the season rolls around, he finds time to hunt and fish. Ralph Pritts and his bow ties are a friendly, familiar part of Whitmer's life. ARDEN C. WALKER Principal of Whitmer High Looking in retrospect at Whitmer High School life for the 1951-1952 school year, we realize that our athletic teams were not invincible, neither do we claim that many of our students will become world noted scholars or leaders, but even with these admissions, our school banners of which we sing so reverently in our school hymn, have been carried to a high level of achievement. I think we are better understanding that true- education can never be adequately meas- ured by points earned in contests of physical skill, contest or oral declamation, or even by demonstration of high academic abilities on local and national tests. It is more accurately portrayed by sincere graciousness, and friendliness extended to all of our associates by a deep respect for truth, honor and justice, by emo- tional stability and strength during times of stress, by a willingness to combine our talents with hard work, that we may contribute to world progress, and by humility before God for our many imperfections. These traits must serve as the foundation of our educational program, then, facts and skills may be taught with assurance that they will be used for the betterment of mankind. It is in these areas .that I think we at Whitmer may be proud. Our homes, churches, and schools have worked hard toward this end, and you are a credit to them. It has been an abiding pleasure to have spent this year with you. Best Wishes, ARDEN C. WALKER, PRINCIPAL 6 THE ADMINISTRATION Whitmer's first principal was Mr. C. L. Messmore, who retained the position until 1936. In 1936 Mr. Earl Keller was principal, followed by Mr. Elmer Marks in 1938. Our own Mr. Arden C. Walker became principal on February 1, 1950. In 1937 Mr. Earl Keller was local superintendent. In the fall of 1940, Mr. A. N. Thurston assumed the position, followed by Mr. Earl B. Driver in 1945. Mr. J. W. Whitmer was the first county superintendent, followed by Mr. E. J. Krieger. Mr. Harold M. Ryder, one of the original 88 county superintendents from Ohio chosen in 1914, has been superintendent of this county since 1940 when he came from Fremont, Ohio. 2 l .,,.,.., as 8 141 ,,, .. ,ff- 0 4' we-MA 7 3351 vfsiif , I-W IQ?

SECRETARIES BETTY CONRAD Secretary to O. K. Benton, Board Clerk ALICE SEGUIN Secretary to Arden C. Walker, Principal of Whitmer 8 CATHERINE LONGNECKER Secretary to Earl B. Driver, Superintendent ADMINISTRATION May I congratulate Whitmer High School upon its steady growth. New buildings, added teachers, and increased effort show the cooperation of the community. May I congratulate the school again upon its high ideals which are keeping pace with this steady growth. I vision Whitmer as one of the outstanding schools of the state. MR. HAROLD M. RYDER Superintendent of Lucas County To Our Many Friends: I am happy to comply to the annual request from the Oracle Staff to write a brief message for the Oracle. This is being written in .the early fall, but I am already impressed with the promptness and energy with which the Annual group are applying themselves to their task. I predict that you will be reading and seeing the many fine things in the Oracle much earlier than usual. The many hundreds of people who are con- nected with Whitmer, either directly or indirectly, are proud of the school and its achievements. Such agencies as the Oracle are among the fine attributes which serve as reflectors for what such institutions as ours are doing. I want to praise and thank, in advance, the entire Staff and their sponsor, Mr. Rice, for the fine ac- complishments which I am sure will be theirs. With best wishes to all subscribers of our great Yearbook, and with high hopes that you will always continue to be Whitmer boosters, I am Sincerely yours, Earl B. Driver MR. EARL B. DRIVER Superintendent of Washington Township CAF ETERIA Rofw 1: Ruby Mosher, Olive Stratton, Marjorie Henderson, Lillian Starkey. Rofw 2g Hazel Briggs, Madelaine Huffer, Doris Bird. There are quite a few faces seen around Whitmer but none are as familiar as the maintenance men and the cafeteria workers. What would Whitmer do with- out them? Who would keep the halls clean, make repairs, keep the students well fed, and keep the school warm. These people are seen day in and day out, during the whole school year.

In 1925 the faculty increased to four teachers, teaching two grades. In 1926, Whitmer had five teachers and three grades were taught. The first year for a com- plete, four-year high school was 1927. The new Whit- mer, at its present location, was opened in 1928. In 1929, the new wing was errected. During the present school year, 1951-52, the faculty consists of thirty teachers. , , I M, 1 ll x 2 P fp as B if .-si-.,.,,. .,-Q vs: ,aa .. . 11: ' and 3 '7- 3 F Q -if if . 'll K.

It seems only a short time ago that we were green freshman. Like all the classes before us, we were rather scared when we first began but we soon got over that. By the time our sophomore year began, we felt quite at home and became more active in school activities. Then suddenly we were upperclassmen and went plunging into a year of exciting events. The first was the arrival of our class rings, a big moment in any student's life. In February we gave our junior Prom at the Secor Hotel and everyone seemed to have had a wonderful time. Then of course, we gave an assembly. just like all the other classes we believed ours was the best of the year, but then, wasn't it? To top off the year we presented our junior Play, Our Hearts Were Young and Gay. It was a rollicking comedy which every- one enjoyed. Most wonderful of all of course, has been our Senior year. In the fall we had our Senior pictures taken and presented our class play, Good Bye, My Fancyf' Again, in our senior year, we presented what we considered a very good assembly. May was really a busy month for the Senior Class. First of all came the senior prom and the choosing of our Prom Queen. Then came our trip to Washington, D.C., - - - a trip we will remember the rest of our lives. Towards the end of the month came bacculaureate, Senior Day, and last but far from least - - - Commencement. Yes, time goes by very quickly. These four years at Whit- mer have passed swiftly and have been four of the most wonder- ful years of our lives.

We, the class of 195 3 are upper classmen! It hardly seems possible that just two years ago we were timid little freshmen entering Whitmer's halls. Our freshman year we sponsored a skate and a dance, The Freshman Frolic. Our Sophomore year we presented an ice skate and a dance. Under the capable supervision of Bernard E. Frost, we completed our first two years of high school. With Lois Loehrke as our advisor, we began our junior year by choosing our class rings and pins.'We then presented our attendant for the Annual Homecoming, selected our Class Play, produced our assembly, sponsored our Junior Prom and honored the seniors with a junior and Senior Party. As the year draws to a close and we look back on all the fun we have had and the new friends we have made, we can truthfully say that we are proud of our three happy years spent at Whitmer.

There was only one small class, which published The Oracle and The Flying W. The following year, 1948, Mr. Arthur H. Rice came to Whitmer and taught journalism to a class of eighteen. In 1949 the journalism class had 28 students, in 1950, there were 3 classes, totaling 69 students, and in 1951 for the Hrst time Mr. Rice, who formerly taught journalism and English, has had nothing but journalism classes. This program has enabled more students to understand and appreciate the importance of the written and the printed word.

Robert Mustain, Bill Pence, Bill Francis, Bob King, Bud The Varsity XV, which is made up of XVhitmer High's shining athletes, is one of the KHOSF respected clubs in the school. Mr. Mustain, new advisor this year, has done a com- mendable job. Initiation to the Varsity VV club is strict, and separates the men from the boys. There are three degrees. The first degree is a week of informal meeting in the boys' gym, the second degree is one night of heck , and the third degree is a formal dinner when pins, oaths, and other formalities are taken care of. The club's main source of income thus far has been the selling of concessions at the . .C. PLAYER. This year WVhitmer placed four seniors boys on the G.N.C. mythical football squad. Headed by Bill Francis, who made first team end, the group included Danny Kramer, and Bud Gose made the second team in the backfield, and Dick Kurth who made honorable mention as a lineman. Danny Kramer made the Hrst team his junior year, but was hampered by injuries this year. Players on the first team received a gold foot- ball and a certificate.

Ik i C ll Panther cagers receiving advice from Coach Alvarez during a WVhitmer time-out Andy Zimmerman, 'Senior, 5' 11 , forward, has a one-handed shot with which he makes most of his points. He takes his posi- tion at forward seriously. Zimmie is one of the better foul- shooting artists on the squad. J. D. Donath, Senior, 5' 9 , guard, is the scrappy guard who never says die. When others are tiring or becoming discour- aged, he has just begun to fight. Bill Francis, Senior, 6' 1 , forward, has been one of the lead- ing factors in helping Whitmer this year. He has perfected a good one-push shot. Bill is consistently taking the ball off the backboards. 94 Dan Kramer, Senior, 5' 7 , forward, continued his good ball playing in his fourth year on the hardwood courts. His speed and clever ball handling made him of great value to the team. Gene Knauss, Sophomore, 6' 3 , center, uses his height to good advantage, for he is often high scorer. His best shot is a hook. He has two more years to continue his good playing at center for Whitmer. Gordie Lynch, junior, 5' 8 , guard, is a hoopster with a bright future in basketball at Whitmer. From his position he makes many important points with his one-handed push shot. Gene Knauss, sophomore center, scores for the Panthers in a cage battle against Burnham.

Basketball was the only sport that existed for girls until 1941 when the Girls' Athletic Association was organized through the efforts of Miss Elinor Fischer and Mr. Donald Stacy, to give the girls of Whitmer opportunities to participate in athletic activities. When the war broke out in 1941, it was impossible to continue this organization. ln 1943, girls' bowling began at Whitmer. The girls were very interested in this sport and now the bowling team is a strong organization. It was not until 1949, that a girls' softball team was organized under the direction of Miss Nancy L. Butler, girls' physical education teacher. In 1950, Miss Butler formed not only a softball team, but also a volleyball and hockey team. The girls had a very successful year. This year and last, the same program was followed and again the seasons were successful. ,go ll fl S S K 105 GIRLS' BOWLING dl Rofw One: Mary Nofziger, Helen Murdock, Judy Tcsch, Joyce limerick, Sally Brown, Patsy Burtscher, Nancy Nicely, Bea Herbster, Lois Hartsel.
