Q' if niniii ,,,,,,,,, 2 Foreword IX years ago appeared the first Annual of our School, and as one has been issued each year this is the seventh. Seven is an interesting number. We have heard ofthe Seven Deadly Sinsg the Seven Gods of Happinessg the Seven Hills of Rome g the Seven Wise Men of 'Greeceg the Seven Car- dinal Virtuesg the Seven Wonders of the Worldp the Seven Years War. Sometimes it is called the perfect number. So we think that our seventh Annual must in some way stand apart from all the others-the best we hope in its portrayal of the life of our school and of the beauty of our buildings and surroundings. We are grateful for the skill, intelligence and business acumen of Mr. Clyde Fieger, a real craftsman, to whose interest and zeal is due this beautiful book. E. D.

SENICDRS HE class of '26 extends its most hearty greetings to Withrow. For four years this, our school, has been the center of all our interest. Nve have studied at W'ithrow, we have attended assemblies and clubs at Withrow, we have enjoyed the social activities at Withrow, we have thrilled in the athletics of Withroxv, and when we have taken pleasure elsewhere, it was usually with friends from Withrow. Our feet have walked miles along -A N the corridors of Withrow. And now we are fast approaching the day when we must bid farewell to Wlithrow. Thus it is that the state of being seniors brings with it varied emotions. As individuals we are happy to have successfully completed our four years' course of study. W'e are grateful for the pleasures and recreations we have enjoyed. Wle are glad for the hardships and failures which have helped shape our characters and stimulated our ambitions. Wle rejoice in the many warm friendships we have made with both students and teachers. As a class we have striven to expand and carry on the precedents of strength, honor, and integrity which the former classes have established. Our class has seen the Dramatic Club formed, and has witnessed its debut. Wye had the satisfaction of watching our athletes win the Cornell Cup, although through a technicality we could not receive it. We have taken an active interest in the clubs and other activities of the school. We are leaving behind us a high standard of scholarship. For the past few years we have had a definite and tangible aim in life-to be seniors. Beyond that the vague and unfathomable future loomed. The time has now come when we must spread our wings and fly. Some of us will go on to other schools to further our education. Others will enter the business world. It is to be hoped that we shall make the most of the opportunities which come our way, and that when opportunities are too long approaching, we may make them for ourselves, so that the class of '26 may produce some men and women to whom the world will owe a debt. And so wherever we go and whatever we do, we most earnestly desire so to conduct ourselves and so to regulate our lives that Withrow may always be proud to be our lirst Alma Mater. ALBERT E.

TORRE D'CAROL ATKINSON, Pete Annual Staff, Thalian, Kalldam, Tower Newf This attractive maid has become quite famous throughout the school because of her artistic ability. But, Torre, it doesn't seem fair,-it really doesn't-that a girl so skillful in art should also be so bewitchingly pretty. MARY KATHRYN BAKER, Bake Ifalldafa, Lalln Club, Special Chorzm Nlary is very quiet and reserved. She has many friends, because to have trlends you must he one, and Mary' IS one.

How ' 371 1' k lt well they look, coming over the bridge, two by two. The girls Y in their white dresses, each with a bouquet ofyellow roses, and I-i-X the boys in their light trousers and dark coats make a beautiful sight. There must be almost three hundred of them. They arepassing by me now. The strains of the organ, playing the march, are heard in the distance. The first ones are entering the building. How often they have done this before, but never with such solemnity as possesses them to-night, their graduation night. Each one walks with the dignity befitting him as a senior. The last have disappeared into the building, which for four long years has been a second home to them, where they have worked and played together. Never again will they enter that door feeling as though this were really THEIR school. It seems but yesterday that they came here as freshmen full of enthusiasm, and ready for the four years ahead. Little did they realize that before them was toil in the form of night-work, night-mares in the form of exams, excitement at the games, or grabbing in the lunch room lines. Poor, little Freshiesl How I pitied them for their ignorance, but how I rejoiced at their innocence. They did not know what small molecules they were considered to be by the upper-classmen. But they did know that at last THEY were going to high school, and how they looked forward to nlording it over the eighth-graders. It didn't take the freshmen more than several months to learn that gym isn't a boy's name, that detention isn't a password between teachers, and that at the games the whole school doesnlt play drop the handkerchief. ln the course of time they even learned how to salute the flag correctly, and what Mr. Lyon means when he says, Excused . Of course we couldn't expect too much of them at first. Wlhen five or six girls walked down the hall with their arms entwined about one another, talking so that l might hear them, when the boys were found wrestling on the stairs, or racing around corners, we considered their lack of gray matter, and gave them only a week's detention to make them remember the next time. There is one thing which l have always noticed about this class all through its high school course. Each year there were certain of the senior boys who were greatly admired and considered as hcrocxr by the lower classmen. Of course these boys were not perfect, and little knew of the worship rendered them, but their influence played a great part in the developing of the characters of my young friends. In '23 these hvroar were Spike Butterfield, lim Hand, Dick Bray, Ed. Wlolhwender, Dick Glazier, and George Steward. I mentioned George Steward last because l just happened to remember his orange shirt. The fresh- men used to think that he wore it to cheer them up at the games when we were losing, while we all know now that he wore it to keep himself warm. During their second year Bill Roe, lack Chomondeley, Ioe Comello, Dwight Brown, Frank Martin, Ted Brown, and Dave Shannon became the idols ofthe sophomores. The juniors looked up slant-wise at Bill Ibold, Wy'att McCall, Pinky Coleman, Bugs Race, Fred. Wrampelmeier, Bob Roose, and Rich Bauer. No junior could be prevailed upon to say that he looked up to any senior, but my seven years at school would be of no avail if l couldn't see some things without being told. ,,,,,. .... .fs .,......... ...,.......... ............, ,,,,. ......, ,......, l E 45 ....,.-1 ,,,,, if , ff1Qf fQQffiQfQ , , lfQfQfiQQfi , This year, alas, the seniors have no lzeroe.r. They are too old for such foolishness, so I am forced to resort to the freshmen to learn whom they consider the Ing men of the class. I find that there are lots of popular senior boys, but the three best known are Ioe Biondi, A1 Bollinger, and Iack Douglas. These three boys are known for three altogether different things: football captain, president of the senior class, and head cheerleader, but they enjoy almost equal popularity. VVithrow has made her name in athletics secure in the past four years. In the year '22-'23 she was champion in everything, football, basket ball, baseball, swimming, and track. The next year as the Hughes game wasn't played, she carried off the honors in everything except football. In '25 we won only swimming, indoor track and baseball. This year we are sure of indoor track and are hoping for baseball. Many other things haye happened in the last four years. In '23-'23 the Kalidasa Club, Astronomy, and Camera clubs were organized. In '24-'25 the Scribblers Club was formed. It was this club which compiled and published the WV Book, a handbook especially useful to the freshmen as a guide. In '24 the name of our school, East, was changed to W'ithrow. At first it was hard for us to become accustomed to this new name, but now, since I see it over the door, I recognize, with the pupils, the ad- vantage of having a name all our own, a name so well-known in Cincinnati, and we have grown to love it. Of course I could go on all night, narrating the events of the past four years, and the merits of this class, but the graduation exercises are over. The graduates, each proudly carrying his diploma, are coming out with their parents and friends. They gaze up at me, joy and sorrow mingled in their expressions, joy, because at last they have graduated, sorrow because of the thought that they are leaving Vylithrow, perhaps forever. No matter how often they may return in the coming years, never again will they feel as though they really belong here. They have all gone. The moon is just rising over the treetopsg everything is silent. And yet I feel as though they were still with me. I shall always feel that way. They wilf always remain my friends, and I shall never forget them.

P RD PH E CY il ui Calcutta, India, Iune 22, 1946 i in i,5'tw,N., MY D1-:AR MR. LYoN: l M -'-... in I have had an experience in the past six months which I think will ,X A' Y .,I,. . ' be of great interest to you. V N '.,.- f My husband, who is interested in scientific research work, took me 'Tet xxx it with him on a trip to India. No one can really appreciate the romance and f 4 r-'----- '-4------ N great mystery of this strange country, unless he has come in contact with its tg I natives. India, you know, is one of the most unique countries of the world, gel ! lp and also one of the most picturesque. Here the traveler gets the first glimpse of Indian life, the bazaar, rows and rows of narrow streets filled with shops and C0l0l'fl1l CI'0WdS- The Cl'0Wds are stranger than the shops. Here you may see Hindus, Parsees, Burmese, Tartar, and many from scores of other countries. Above the confusion of the passing throngs we hear the everlasting babble of tongues which is as astonishing as the mingling of costumes and people. Where there is an open space the snake charmer squats beside his cobras, playing on his strange pipe and putting his venomous pets through their tricksg or a conjurer is causing a mango plant to spring up and put forth its fruit from an apparently barren heap of earth. Everywhere this cabalistic atmosphere prevails, and one can hardly travel through India without having someone unfold his future for him. Naturally, being a woman I desired this very much, so my husband took me to Zakka Khels, the most renowned crystal gazer in all India. After patiently polishing the huge crystal ball, he asked me what I wished to see. I thought a while, and being rather lonesome for my old friends, I finally asked Zakka Khels to show me what my friends of the class of '26 were doing. He gazed steadfastly into the sphere, and after twisting it into various positions his face registered satisfaction, and he requested me to look into the globe. The scene that met my eyes was indeed a very surprising one. The scene depicted was that of the riotous Belgrade, the capital of Iugo-Slavia. His Royal Highness, Paul Hoon, king of the Serbs, Croats, and Slovenes, was being besieged by his rebellious subjects, led by the arrogant Sylvester Iohns, with his henchmen, Bob Fagin, Bob Crone, Charles Brown, and Carl Baum- gartner. King Hoon, tearing his blond beard in rage, ordered his brave general, Iohnny Iewett, to call out the militia, captained by Cliff Patten and his four friends, Bill Ross, Henry Wurster, Iohn Laub, and Ross Metzger. The fainting queen was cared for by Anne Price, Helen Dunn, Sarah Hebble, and Pauline Richey, her ladies in waiting. Viewing the turbulent mob from the castle walls was the Countess Olivia Perin frantically clutching the hand of Duke Pinsky, Master of the Royal Dining Tables. Nearby stood Lord VVeinstein, Chief Mechanician of the Royal Packard, and Don Michael, Regulator of the Royal Radio Set, and Viscount Tschan, Minister of the Royal Complexion Cream. The winsome Princess Florence Lindahl was weeping bitterly, for in the mob she beheld Tom Iones, brandishing a huge broomstick, set upon by the Royalists, Bob Wagner, Ioe Alice McClain, Elmer Reiman, Ray Lance, Sarah Hamilton, and Elmira Grassman, whose chief weapons were Ferger's Fancy Fire Tongs. Carl Cramer, Harold Gardner, David Kidd, and Carl Grey, as large as ever, had just succeeded in shattering the castle door and Bozo Snyder, George Lutz, Dusty Sharp, Frank Vine, and Erwin Pfingstag had just rushed in. My heart stood still, wondering whether or not these huge figures would harm the person of his Royal Highness, King Hoon. But I failed to see the rest of the scene for to my deep disappointment, the crystal dimmed and I could see no more. I picked up a newspaper the next day and found that after the revolution, the monarchy was over- thrown, and a republic, governed entirely by women, had been established. Dot Gillette had been unanim- ously elected president, and Helen Beall, Dot Rutterer, and Florence Stoecklin were her chief advisers and state executives. 54 ...I , , , , . ,, ff , , , , , , . , 1 , , , . b ,.. , ..,. .. ,,.. l I might add that the climate here does not agree with me at all and I am leaving very shortly, for a brief stay in Europe.

Yours truly, VIRGINIA ERNST ROCKINGHAM Rome, Italy, September 9, 1946 MY DEAR MR. LYON: A -4 You may remember that in my letter I promised myself the pleasure of writing to you again should I come across any interesting news.

Their excavating tools lookedsuspiciously like the forks we used to use in the Withrow lunch room. Here in Italy I have greeted an unusual number of my Withrow friends. In Florence, Minerva Clephane and Torre Atkinson were studying the works of Raphael and da Vinci. Marvin Weissman, Ed. Daly and Harry Kirschner were also there endeavoring to copy Michelangelo's David . In Venice the woman suffrage movement had resulted in the licensing of female chauffeurs for the gondolas. The most skillful of these gondoliers, I found, were Regina Engel, Ruth Grossman, Ruth Whitacre, Ruby Smith, Mary Baker, and Sylvia Estell. Cupid, Director-General of Canal Traffic, in Venice, directed my gaze to George Staley, the Chewing Gum King, who was blissfully gliding through his honeymoon in his self-propelling gondola, which Bill Iackson had recently invented for honeymooners. Bill explained that he used in the gondola the concentrated energy which gum chewers were constantly wasting. Yesterday in the papers here I discovered that Bernard XVest, the successor of Wlussolini had recently drawn up a permanent peace treaty with the United States Minister, Iohn Brunner. On Board Ship, September 15, 1946 I now hasten to complete my letter. Thursday last, I was fortunate enough to obtain passage on the S. S. Withronian, owned by Chuck Heekin and Iohnny Herron. The captain is Iohn Herschede, and Leonard Harding has been engaged as first mate. The decks are daily swabbed by the following husky gobs: Art Irwin, David Allen, George Linser, Ray McCarty, Ioe Neubauer, and Charlie Leopold. I have had the unusual good fortune of having here with me my old friend Iimmy Bing, who is return- ing from Spain where he is the head of the English department in the University of Madrid. Iimmy says that Violet Wirwille, Elsie Mae Reynolds, and Virginia Updegrove were there, too, still obtaining further knowledge of Spanish. It is interesting to learn that Dixie Brant is in diplomatic service in Madrid, and that Francis Piates, Stanley Rhine, and Clyde Rahe are the Queen's favorite bull fighters. Madame Mary Elizabeth Wallace and her co-star, Corrine Fuller, are returning from Italy to New York for their winter engagement with the Metropolitan Opera Company. Here, too, are Betty Smeth- hurst, Mary Gillette, Betty Hernstein, and Iessie Bingham, all of whom won great laurels as participants in the Olympic Games in Switzerland last summer. Professors Eleanor Hatton, Helen Hughes, and Ruth Grimm, who have been spending their sab- batical years traveling in Europe, have been entertaining us with their exploits. Eleanor Hatton said that she found Melba Phillips in the Poet's Corner of Westminster Abbey striving to gain inspiration from the well-known statues there. Ruth Grimm said that she had seen Mabel Gnoeth, la premiere danseuse, in a theatre in Paris with all the beau monde at her feet, and that Bernice Trosky was the best dressed woman in Paris. 55 On Board Ship, September 17, 1946 My other attempt to finish my letter was interrupted by the appearance of Dot Denkamp, Catherine Frazee, and Virginia Bell, who are, as you know, teachers in East High School of Columbus. They told me of your fine position as Superintendent of Ohio High Schools. We all offer our sincere congratulations. Yesterday we experienced our first unpleasant weather. A terrific storm arose, and the decks were rendered uninhabitable. As 1 was playing bridge in the lounge with the bridge sharks, Helen Stocker, Mary Reeves, and Gwendolyn Lockard, a cry came from somewhere, that the captain had sighted a hydro- plane above our ship, battling with the raging wind and waves. Despite the rain, we rushed to the deck just in time to see the huge plane fall into the angry sea beside our liner. Confusion reigned: a lifeboat was lowered, and the unconscious aviators werebrought upon deck. 1 had to look twice before 1 recognized Ioe Biondi as the captain, and Fred Busch, Dwight Short, and David Peet as the subordinate officers. The surviving passengers of the crippled plane, were Iean Hill, Florence Ingram, Hilda Eberle, and Lorna McClain. The boat is docking now, so 1 must hasten to seal this letter in order that 1 may mail it as soon as 1 enter New York. ' gg+i.,.gf i X fu I .,.

LYON: It surely feels good to be back in the'big city. Everything seems just as busy as ever. The same people are hustling for the same things. But here at the Castillian, things are quiet and homelike. Perhaps you know that 1'1allowe'en Doherty and Corrine West are the successful proprietors of this hotel, which replaces the Waldorf Astoria. 1 was very fortunate in obtaining a room, for New York is very crowded due to the annual Elks' Convention. Here in this hotel are Iohn Iurgenson, the Grand Master, and Lloyd Grant, Gordon Rich, Bill Harris, Osborn Grever, Herschel Cohn, Russel Mayer, and Ralph Crawford, other big men in this organization. V'e all spent a jolly time last evening talking over old times. Friday Evening, September 22, 1946 This morning 1 called a taxi to carry me to the hospital where joe Biondi had been taken. On the way many times 1 thought that my life was endangered, which fear you will understand when 1 tell you that the driver was Ed. Read. One time we would have been arrested had not the traffic officer been Bob Vosmer, who let us off for old times' sake. The hospital is the famous one which Bob Stegner, the modern Henry Ford, has heavily endowed. 1 found joe much better, due perhaps to the capable doctors, Howard Wlade and Stanton Brock, and the nursing staff, of which Neva Gordon, Alberta Davis, Virginia Boian and Miriam Grad were members. As 1 passed through the accident ward 1 came upon Bill Hammond, who had almost killed himself trying ti i V t t'f' ' l . , 0 lm en an ar 1 Ima gaso me Saturday Evening, September 23, 1946 This morning 1 motored into the city to purchase a new fall outfit before my return to Cincinnati. On my way to Hazel Rahn's exclusive French dress shoppe, 1 saw in the ranks of the Elk parade, Paul Kuhn, Lawrence Schwartz, Bill Kinder, Edwin Kircher, Henry Andres, Carl Kisker, and Edwin Rose. Among the patrons of Hazel's dress shoppe were Iohn Cosby, now preparing to sing the part of Mephistopheles in Faust, and his wife, whose many purchases were throwing Iohn into despair. Three of the famous buyers of the Marshall Meadows Company, of Chicago, Laura Peddicord, Margaret Hadden, and Gladys Luckey, were selecting their latest fall fashions. Ethel Iackson, Billy Fox, and Indy Cooper the beautiful mannequins, displayed the latest bathing suit models for the year 1946, which had been designed by Virginia Rankin and Betty Foy. 1 had planned to go last night to Thelma Thaubald's dance given in honor of Charlie Stevenson, whose recent novel, The Blue Bird's Whisper , was last year's best seller, so in preparation 1 went to Iinny Foyis beauty parlor which makes a specialty of the Nora Shannon wave. jjjjw .... 1 ....... 56 nm nnunnmulll I mm nmInumnlmmlllunlnlnl lllllmllu InIInnumIlllunImllllllullIllIlllllulmllllllllllllllllllulllllulllnlllllllllnu I llnlllulm lm: ll I I n IlunullummIIIllIllllIIIulluunnlnullnll: I Q' 1 -1- z'caf f ' v at fa' , r., The dance was the last of the summer frivolities and the gayest among the merry guests were, Admiral Clair Hall, General Glenn Sleight, and Senator George Brossart of South Dakota. The Aldermen, Bill Haggerty, Lester Lakamp, and YValter Ziegler were the most popular bachelors present. Little Betty Church, following in her mother's, Betty Hezlep's footsteps, was the belle of the evening. The music was provided by Dorothy Storch's noted women's jazz band, consisting of Lucy Martin, Maxine Mains, Ruth Lutz, Eleanor Dibble, and Margaret Stanley. The Dudley twins gave an exhibition of the Boston Bounce , every bit as popular and difficult as our school days' Charleston . September 25, 1946 Yesterday we paid a visit to the Long Island factory of the Merkle and Douglas Company, which puts out the collapsible airplane for the convenience of college boys who have long outgrown the collegiate Ford. They had the following high grade stenographers in their employ: Ruth Keagy, Mary Alice Mc- Carthy, Ruth Moore, Helen Nast and Eunice Taylor, who are all quite indispensable to the Company. Bob Douglas said that Ed Krieger was one of the most efficient salesmen that he has ever employed, although Georgia Waite, Virginia Seaman, Bessie Fowler, and Pauline McBeth are furnishing Ed. great competition. On our way home a huge limousine whizzed by us, carrying Bud Porter, the famous YVall Street broker and his private secretary, Edna Kay, to his suite of offices in the Lunsford Sky-Scraper Building. I've always wanted a glimpse of Bohemian life, so I arranged with my old friend Betty Cook and her husband to go sight-seeing in Greenwich Village in the afternoon. After arriving in this curious section we sought out a tea room. Cur choice was the Cabbage Leaf Tea-Room , owned by Dot Gerdsen, Ada Wilson, and Irene Arend. Among those enjoying this free and unconventional life were: Dot Swick, a prosperous commercial artist, and Marie Brown, whose portraits of Virginia Shattuck have made her famous. lack Meyer, the well known bass, and composer of popular music, seemed quite at home there with his friend Walter Rehm. It took me some time to recognize Ed. Gomien, the world-renowned impersonator. The famous play-wright Lee Destler, and her co-worker Iean Foster, have a table permanently reserved there, we heard. They were not there then, but had kindly left word that we might use their table. Emily Fussinger occupied a conspicuous place there surrounded by Alma Hoffmeister, Virginia Bruce, Helen Lammers, and Florence Stansbury, her fellow novelists. On our way back to the city Betty and I noticed the name of lean Iohns flashing among the bright lights of Broadway, so straightway we bought out tickets and entered this theater. The curtain went up, and when the gayly bedecked chorus appeared we recognized the well known features of Margaret Peterson, Marie Forbus, Olive VVilliams, Mary Mygatt, and Elvera Yvholwender. Art Stollmaier played with great ease a difficult role opposite lean. During the intermission wc learned that Iohn Hall was the producer and that Art Kisker had recently bought out the company. In a private box we saw Dot Granger, the owner of the famous Granger Kennels, holding in her lap a tiny canine not unlike a Pekinese. This dog is quite a fad among such society leaders as Luella Barnes, Eloise Kloak, Marie Wilson, and Marie Rodenberg. This is all that I can now think of which might be of interest to you, but I hope soon to tell you in person more of my adventures, for I leave in a few days for Cincinnati. Yours sincerely, VIRGINIA ERNsT ROCKINGHAM Cincinnati, Ohio, September 28, 1946 T FRIEND HUSBAND! Well, here I am back in the old home of my childhood. I have been Q so busy renewing old associations, greeting old friends, and visiting the dear old scenes that I am hardly able to settle down long enough to write to you. 'But I shall at least make a brave beginning. U . I had a lovely time in New York and enjoyed the trip home immensely. 1 I came by way of the L. and A. line which is owned by Vance Lang and Bill nl . Ammerman. Alfred Blickensderfer engineered the train and Merrill Leach T- was the conductor. Q In the Pennsylvania Station I recognized the lusty voice of lack - Douglas living true to his old YVithrow cheer-leading form as a train gannnnnnmmmmunuuuxmuni nunmnnnunnluulu?un nmnnnnxgilullnnIlllullIIlunInuplunmulllumunuunlnn muInmumuunmnnuumiunuuunnnumnmuIuuuununnunnnnqig 51 33. A . 5 'i -9 G 4' - GQ 55 9 5 I 57 caller. At a little town, called Rogers Ford, where we stopped for water, I looked out the window only to see Constable Owen Phillips leaning, sound asleep, against the door of Ed. Morrison's general store. Among my fellow passengers were Eunice Meakin, Florence Smith, Mildred jones, and Dot Horman, who were returning from business trips, and E. G. Botts who was coming to Cincinnati, to start practising for the position of department store perennial Santa Claus. I am being entertained in Louise Kennedy's delightful home, which is quite near my old school, Withrow. The other day we paid a visit to the school and lunched with Dot Nichols, who has replaced Miss Agerter as student adviser. Roslyn Grimme is now head of the Spanish department and Norma Grimm is quite a success as a teacher of Latin. The class of '26 is well represented in other lines of teaching also. Ioe Nebolsky is now football coach there, and Nancy Neal is the girls gym teacher. Bill Lindeman enjoys teaching chemistry, and john Undercoffer is an excellent teacher of history. ' Louise's Civic Club met Tuesday last and City Manager Bob Schwartz gave us an interesting address on the subject of civic pride. Mayor Henderson and Councilmen Zimmerman, Struble, and Stillman also took part in the program. I learned there that Ruth Nash was chief librarian in the Library of Congress, and that Ethel Miller was now secretary to Albert Bollinger, President of our country. Perhaps, Clarence, you did not know that Albert was a member of my class. Isn't it remarkable to what the training of a senior high school president can lead? Evening, My letter was interrupted by the arrival of the members of the bridge club. Wle spent a very en- joyable afternoon playing cards. Iosephine Farrel won the first prize with her usual luck, and Mildred Eberhard won the second prize. The other bridge sharks present were: Eva lung, Genevieve Harper, Bernice Keegan, Ellen Kingston, and Mary Kelley. As we gossiped over our tea cups I learned that Dick Roe was captain of the life guards at Coney Island, and George Strauser was posing for Arrow collar ads. Tom Bingham has accepted the office of Postmaster General of the United States for which he is well fitted because of his experience during the Christmas holidays at Withrow. Richard Steves, Erwin Schaen, and Elsie Thompson have taken over the Zoo management, and they contend they couldn't possibly get along without Sheff Richey, who runs the merry-go-round. A special feature at the Zoo this week is the team of Clemons and Cordes, the world renowned ice skating stars. I'm sleepy now, old darling, so nighty, night until morning. Morning, September 29, 1946 Such excitement! Another big boom-but not in Florida, in Arkansas! But best of all, Stanley Whitehouse and Blanche Cook are promoting the scheme. Emily Brooks, the editor of the Times Star reports it to be well founded, because Bill Kleiman, professor in Economics at the University of Cincinnati, has invested heavily in it. The skies are darkened with airplanes of eager enthusiasts headed in that direction to make a fortune. Dot Fisher is on her way there by rail hoping to make her fortune selling evening slippers to Indians. Marvin Meerse and George Fetick hold the record for transporting two hundred and fifty people to and from Arkansas in less than twenty-four hours in their swift aero-bus. Steven Theil is carrying his famous circus to Arkansas to amuse some of the disheartened inhabitants. Some of the talented performers in this band are, Ray Harding, the tall man, Virginia Engelken and Eunice Casey, unexcelled lion tamers, Pearl Miles, Virginia McDonough, and Ruth Krehnbrink, fearless bare back riders, and Harriet Smith and Naomi Rekart, weird snake charmers, Donald McFarland and Herman Teichman swallow swords in each performance to whet their appetites, and last but not least, George Heffernon is grand ring master. Clarence, doesn't it seem strange how many of our friends can be accounted for when we travel. I was making a list the other day of all those, I had seen during my trip to and from India and only seven from my class were unaccounted for. I made further inquiry about them and found out that Dot Tieman and Flora Mae Hoff were missionaries in the Samoan Isles, and that Helen Winkler, Kate Stewart, and Elizabeth Lauder were instructors in Scheuman and Seal's exclusive school for teaching young girls them arts of flapperism. I hope this detailed account of the doings and fortunes of our friends will make you long to see them again, and that you will become so homesick you will hasten home to your loving wife, IEANNE 58 G E! , , g .

That group, potent in numbers, but showing no marked signs of future success in our dear Alma Mater, is l today the powerful and strong junior class, the most important in the whole see. Vle may liken our high school existence to human life, the freshie .f year to those of childhood, the sophomore year to those of adolescence, the . junior year to those of vigorous manhood and womanhood, and the senior year to those of brooding and saddening decay that usually accompanies old age. Everybody of any reasoning whatsoever concedes the fact that the frosh, or in vulgar terminology, the freshies, are extremely childish. Their thin, piping voices raised in wonder and amazement during the first few months of school are sufficient warrant for that. So let it be sufficient. The sophomores, personifying youthful ambition, as a rule cover this with a thick and heavy coat of cynicism and contempt, the latter being mostly for the freshies, whom they naturally despise, being but one short year removed from the same humiliating state themselves. The sophomore boys, however, lay bare their inexperience by attempting to vie with the seniors in the sartorial magnificence of their haber- dashery. The girls of this class are widely noted for the wonderful trick of widening the eyes, and of emit- ting shrill cheerful yelps in the stadium, especially during a long end run for goal in the Hughes game. The seniors, you will remember, are noted for the somewhat proud and mournful effects they produce while attempting to conceal their natural handsomeness and beauty from onlookers. I believe this is caused by their martyrlike feelings, which are in turn occasioned by associating with those of inferior powers, physical, mental, moral, and social. One realizes that they would never, no, never remain a moment with the vulgar crowd if it wasn't for the sake of the dear old school. But the IUNIORS, ahl the grandeur of the thought almost takes one's breath away. The glorious juniors possess none of these obnoxious attributes. They are far beyond the childishness of the freshies, and the snobbishness habitually displayed' by the sophomores. They are sophisticated, of course, but not to the degree of being made mournful by it. But the IUNIORS! Everybody agrees that the junior girls are ,fairest and most chic in the whole school, and the junior boys, for their part, can do more in a week than the rest of the school can in a month. More juniors are on basket ball, football, track, swim- ming, and every other team than members of any other class. Now you know why the junior class is above the childishness of the freshies, the snobbishness of the sophomores, and the decrepitude of our reverend seniors. I :gin school.

W. . ,,., 1 WM,,. ,., ,. ..,1, . ,, , Q ,..,. ..,,,., SQPHOMQRES HE freshman laugh at us, the seniors stare at us, the juniors pat our heads. We are the SOPHOMORES. Day in and day out we take ' our quiet, unobtrusive ways through the halls, knocking down what- ! , ever lies in our path. No gathering is complete without us. We are faith- .lf fully represented at the eighth bell congress, and no assembly could be a I howling success if we were not there. Our research work in the gastronomical laboratory is profound, as are our slumbers in study-hall. Our keen intellects are directed toward the greatest problem of the day, and when we learn to dance it we have no peers. We favor a World Court, for we are ardent players of tennis and believe that it should be an international pastime. Nevertheless, we are 1002 Americans, six-fourths of us having visited California, and the other three-fourths are going to Florida. Our analysis of the Florida land boom is unique, inasmuch as we know nothing about it. In fact we may say without vanity that we know very little about anything. Our only worry is that we are like the juniors, seniors, and freshmen in so many respects. But seriously speaking, the sophomore class is one to be reckoned with. In his second year the student begins to take an active interest in the various opportunities the school offers him-the clubs, the organizations, the arrangements for supplementing his course with additional studies, and the many activi- ties which are directly or indirectly associated with Withrow. The second year determines whether the student will be willing to work for the advancement of the school in the several fields of interscholastic endeavor, whether he will strive to make it a living, human Alma Mater, or let it become a mere mechanical thing. Therefore when a class CAN feel that its members are responding to these calls there is surely room for a little healthy pride, such a pride as will forbid any slackening of effort and only spur us on to greater achievements. In our senior group we have a worthy object for emulation, a startling and un- precedented confession, but a very true one nevertheless. Association with the upper class-men, as offered by the several organizations, has given us some idea of the ideals and traditions which we must live up to. We are brought into close contact with our teachers through the same medium, and thus come to realize the value of education by coming to know as friends the type of people that education develops. It is difficult to realize that our high school career is half over. As we grow older time goes far more quickly than was once his wont, and although we are not of a very advanced age, two years is by no means the infinity which once it seemed. We have but two years to prepare ourselves for commencement, we must work to keep our beloved school in the place which is rightfully hers, we must endeavor to fit ourselves for the tasks we shall be called upon to accomplish, and Hnally, to use the hackneyed but adequate metaphor, we must pass on the torch to those who will in time face the same problems and demands that confront us now.

Sometimes at night, when the breezes drop Carelessly down through the pillared top Into the sounding well, I think that the lonely, exiled gong Sings to itself a plaintive song, Tuned to the river's swell. Tuned to the laugh of the lapping waves Over the old stern-wheeler's graves, Deep in the golden siltg Keyed to a note it shall hear no more, The beat of the flood on a sandy shore, The Bell in Withrow Tower CT he bell in W ithrow fewer wa.r premenfed lo fhe .rchool by the Civic and Vocafional League in January, 1921.

It tells of the Creoles' frail canoes That darted out from the dank bayous, To roll in the steamer's wake 9 Of gray moss, studded with crystal beads, And the rustle of rice birds in the reeds As the day began to break. It sings of the Northern waters, too, And the hills the Ohio wanders through, And the ports it used to know, Of barges, loaded with coal and sand g Of wee, white towns on the great, green land, VVhere the planters' wharves were built. Like patches of sheltered snow. VVhatever is loved must have a soul 5 Old gong, when the rust devours your bowl, When your voice is memory You'll find a vessel that churns a stream Which rises out where the far stars gleam And flows through eternity.

However, we should not be blamed for our timidity, for we could not be expected to understand the ways of a school so entirely new and strange to us. It was not very long before we ceased to be so humble and fearful. In a few days we adapted ourselves to our new surroundings, and took up our new work as true Withrowites. We smiled bravely at the dignified upper classmen when they passed us, although down in our hearts we were secretly overcome with awe. New and unlocked-for difficulties confronted us every place we turned. It was extremely perplexing to find our way around the building. Many a freshman became so bewildered in his futile attempt to find a certain classroom, that he was forced to bury his pride and call on an upper classman for aid. It was equally hard to get acquainted with our new teachers, and as soon as these difficulties were overcome new ones faced us. Probably the most disturbing of these were examinations, which after all, proved to be less of an ordeal than we had anticipated. On the whole, however, we freshies are as interested in, and as contented with our life here as we could ever expect to be. We not only excel in our studies, but we take great interest and pride in athletics and the other activities of the school. For the first time in the history of this institution, the freshman home- rooms organized football teams and played many interesting and exciting games for the championship of the D grade. The girl-s, too, are doing their part in athletics. They have taken part in all of the games and events, and we guarantee that the upper-classmen will have to watch their step in order to keep ahead of us. In fact, one of the cherished desires of Withrow Freshmen, both boys and girls, is so to develop and excel in an athletic way, as to be able effectively and with marked distinction to close whatever gaps graduation may make in our school teams, and by our participation aid in maintaining the enviable prestige of Withrow's athletic endeavors. We are truly unhappy when we think of the time when the seniors must leave us and depart from the school to which we have all become so attached. We shall miss their familiar, happy faces, and the thought of a new class coming next year does not compensate our loss in the senior's graduation. We hope, however, that Withrow will always be loved and honored by these graduates, despite the fact that they may become active and faithful workers in other schools.

Faculty Advirer N Friday, March 19, the Alumnal Association held its sixth annual reunion at which about five hundred were present. An informal get-together was held in the front corridor, followed by a banquet at which the high spirit of the grads was evidenced by class yells and Withrow's favorite songs. Class meetings next occupied a half hour, after which all adjourned to the auditorium for a program. The Reverie of an Old Grad, in which Charles Duncan, '24, took the lead, was the surprise part of the program. Leonard Dempsey as Mr. Surdo, Bill Keck as Mr. Peoples, Miss Marshall as Mr. Lyon, and Frank VVedig as Mr. Brubaker, were especially successful. Two solos by Iohn Cosby, speeches by Principal Lyon and President Grosse, the playing of the organ by Donald Winget, and clog-dancing by Misses Brady, Fennekohl, Philippi, and Hubbell completed the auditorium program. Dancing in the girls' gymnasium completed the program of one of the most delightful reunions ever held at W'ithrow. ik 5l4 Bk Pk PK 9?

The Library Thai plan' ffm! dum l'0IIA1l'I1 my lmnkm, lhe hem! compam'on.r, im Io me L1y!0I'l.0llJ' courlf' N this age of opportunity, books are taken as a matter ofcourse. They are so common that few high school students stop to consider the long chain of events that has brought the book within the reach of all and made the library a part of the public high school. Considered as members of a great family books can show a noble lineage, traced back to the dim past, with a splendid record for service in every age. If the members of this celebrated Book family were to form a pageant, the figures in the first episode would be the papyrus rolls of the ancient Egyptians, closely followed by the distinguished company of Greek and Latin manuscripts. As the procession moves slowly along, forming the episode of the middle ages, the group is very small indeed. A few beautifully illustrated manuscripts in heavy board covers are to be seen, dragging their chains as they pass by. ln this period, when the lamp of learning was very dim, the Book family had a hard struggle to maintain an existence. Those who survived the hardships of the times were copied, cherished and carefully guarded by the monks. For safe-keeping they were chained to the lecterns in many instances. ' The next generation of the Book family, forming the episode of the Renaissance, seem a happier lot. Though still in manuscript form, their numbers have greatly increased and they are all treated with great consideration and respect. As the next episode comes into view, the Book family appears to be very large and flourishing and much more cosmopolitan in appearance, due to the invention of printing from moveable types, a discovery of almost incalculable service to man. ln the last episode, that of modern times, the Book family has become a great orderly procession, depicting the development of public libraries. This goodly company, in great numbers, ministers to the needs of all kinds of people, old and young, craftsmen, merchants, and scholars. The members of the Book family are no longer merely the associates of the privileged few, the nobles and clergy, but are seen to be friends and companions of all the people. As the pageant draws to a close, the high school student sees his own school library with new appre- ciation. He realizes that although the high school library is one of the youngest branches of the fine old Book family, it is making a large contribution to the education of the young people. The beautiful Wlith- row library and others of its kind are striving to be of service in develo ing reading tastes, enriching the text-book work and inculcating and fostering appreciation for fine and, worth-while things. Only as a school library performs such service can it be worthy of its fine heritage and really appear to those who use it as a Glorious Court. 45 ..'.

The meetings were held every week on Friday during the seventh period. The programs were arranged so as to stimulate interest in astronomy beyond that of classroom study. Besides these programs there were trips to the Observatory where opportunity was given to study the stars through the telescope. The different constellations of the heavens were studied on similar trips. The last, but not the least feature of the club, was the much anticipated picnic which was held at the end Of the year' FLORENCE LINDAIII. ..............................

The aims of the organization are to encourage public speaking, to provide a source for practical cul- ture, to afford a means for practice in extemporaneous speaking, and to develop poise. The topics used for the weekly debate are such that they prove to be incentives to the study and investigation of subjects of scholastic or general interest.

This year the natural dances, which were studied by the girls, were thoroughly enjoyed. The club's annual program, given April first, was rather unusual and very interesting. In the first part of the program a festival to Hyacinthia, and the other Greek customs, were presented. The Latin Clubs of the school co-operated with the Dancing Club in this work. An original number, Fantasy of Autumn, which was composed by the club, was also given. Miss Taylor and Martha Strauss, the accom- panist, gave valuable assistance.

There was a general feeling among them that an organization which would stimulate interest in good plays would he of great value. A try-out was held at which twenty-three students from the junior and senior classes were chosen. They were chosen on the basis of their character, merit, voice qualities, expression, and poise. On October 7th, the first meeting was held, for the purpose of electing officers. It was decided to name the organization the THALIAN DRAMATIC CLUB. Yvithin the first semester, three plays were given: THE KLEPTOlVlANIAC, a little shit given on Parents' Day for their entertainmentg GREEN STOCKINGS, played hefore a public audienceg and YVHY THE CHIMES RANG, a Christmas play given before the school. Before the second semester was hardly a week old, a call for new members was sent out. A try-out was held at which fifteen new aspirants were chosen. The chief work of the cluh during the second semester consisted in the staging of IJIMA BEANS, THE NEIGHBORS, and TXVO CROOKS AND A LADY. These plays were given before various au- diences.

The past year has lieen more than successful in comparison with the preceding year. There are three times as many depositors, and the deposits are much greater. The Savings Bank is a wonderful opportunity for the pupils, giving them a chance to form the habit of saving early in life. Three mornings of each week the bank is open to receive any amount which the pupil and teachers may care to deposit. One ot'America's foremost financiers said, lfyou cannot save, you will never succeed. The Savings Bank is endeavoring to teach the pupils of NVithrow to save in orderithat they may succeed in future years. The idea of saving is to put aside the amount one wants to save, and to live on the remainder, not to save what is left, for many times there will be nothing to save. YVith this in mind one can determine to save whatever amount he may wish. Nlany of the students ofthe school are saving with a definite purpose in mind, for graduation expenses, a vacation, college, or university fund. The scholar who wisely saves his money is building for future years. High school years are years in which the hest habits should he formed'-thrift is one of the very best habits any student could form in his high school course.

During the last few months ofthe school year, the boys and girls alternately meet on Friday morning at 7:45 to add the finishing touches to the most difficult passages in preparation for the concert. In these extra rehearsals they accomplish much toward the pertecting ot' a composition. As everyone knows, however, any undertaking must have a leader, and the Special Chorus could wish no better one than our efficient and painstaking Mr. Surdo. It is under his direction that we have achieved such great success, as the concerts given in the past have proved to all who heard them. Our friends who heard the number, Ring Out, Vwlild Bells, at Christmas time were ready to admit that it was both wonderful and thrilling. To us, who had a part in its rendition, it was more than thrilling. The compositions which Mr. Surdo selects are such as to create in us a desire to render them with all the beauty and feeling possible, thus accomplishing the purpose Mr. Surdo has in mind in choosing them Therefore we say in all truth and sincerity that the Special Chorus is highly beneficial to every mem- ber, and we trust that next year's chorus will exceed the present one in both numbers and accomplishments.

Aside from several incidental trips and engagements, the orchestra directs its school year endeavors toward the annual June Concert. Last year we played successfully several big numbers, but we feel that in the school year just past the orchestra reached heights beyond its past work. During the year the orchestra played Chabrier's Spanish Rhapsodyn, Thomas' Raymond Overture , The Song of Victoryn by Percy Fletcher, and The Viking , by our own Mr. Surdo. The numbers are all of particular depth and beauty. YVe have, at present, the personnel of a symphony orchestra. The oboe, weird but effective, adds much to the blend of qualityg the tuba is another unusual instrument of which the orchestra boastsg the bassoon also is an instrument which we are proud to possess, besides these are the flutes, whose soft trills and runs make beautiful our many difficult pieces, the clarinets and cornets, and the stringed instruments kconsisting of the bass viol, 'cello, viola, and violin. Our beloved leader, Ioseph Surdo, is the one who makes our successes possible. It is he who strives to maintain our high reputationg it is he who makes us strive for the good and the beautiful in music. Xve are proud to claim Mr. Surdo as our leader, for he is known to all the musical world as a genius in directing orchestras and choirs, and also in composing music. ,EAN HANDY . 4 , unlor Orchestra 0 U A 1 o o O what IS the wonderful success of the Xvlthrow High School A Senior Orchestra due? Certainly it is due, in no small measure, to the thorough training received by its members in the Iunior W .X Orchestra, for it is in this orchestra that they learn the fundamental principles of orchestral work. The value of this training cannot be overestimated. , Although the Iunior Orchestra is similar to a preparatory school B in its relation to the Senior Orchestra, it is also an active organization in itself. It has one rehearsal each week under the direction of Mr. Surdo, whose ability cannot be questioned. At present the Iunior llj Orchestra numbers about twenty members. The training received in this orchestra is very complete and thorough. Each member receives careful instruction in every phase of the work,-'both individually and as a group. Thus the pupils who are promoted to the Senior Orchestra are more advanced and better equipped to uphold the high standard already attained by that orchestra. ' The Iunior Orchestra collaborates with the Senior Orchestra for the annual concert. This combined orchestra of seventy-five members opens the concert with two well-chosen selections. At the end of the year each member is presented with a pin in recognition of his services. Fmxmcrs Russeu., '27 ..... ..,,.. 121 E3 li wx L am ag? ff s WF E ' if? QfffIHfffQfEfffQfQQfQQf1E?fffffffQQfS?ffQQQfQ The Band LITTLE more than two years ago the YVithrow High School Band was organized, and began a career of untiring labor for the benefit of the school. From a membership of about twenty-five it has grown to practically twice that number. However. quantity is not the only measure of its development, for at present the band is playing compositions heretofore thought to be beyond the ability of high school talent. The first year was rather difficult, for throughout the entire football season the band was without uniforms, without sufficient music, and without a permanent meeting place for rehearsals. However, as the basketball season drew near, the students, realizing the worth of a good band, dug deeply into their pockets, or purses, and extracted a goodly sum which went for the purchase of uniforms and music. In appreciation of this splendid generosity the band gave a free concert in the auditorium. Another and finer concert was planned, but owing to the illness of Mr. Horton, the able director, this project had to be postponed. The second year started off with a bang. The band was a whirlwind of pep and enthusiasm from start to finish. The boys were present at almost every game, and gave the teams a hearty backing. A concert was given at the close of the season, which not only delighted greatly everyone present, but also provided sufficient funds to supply the band with uniforms and music for the ensuing year. This year, as everyone well knows, the band has far surpassed all expectations. No football team ever had a more loyal bunch of supporters than the members of the band, and a great deal of credit is due this faithful group of fellows, who regardless of the weather were present at every game. The basketball team, although not quite so successful as the football team, was equally well supported by the same old band. In addition to these activities the band played at several assemblies, and gave its annual concert to a large and appreciative audience. At the close of each year honorary letters are given to all members of the band who have not missed more than three rehearsals, and who have performed their work faithfully and to the best of their ability. To Mr. Horton, the leader of the band, is due the greatest measure of gratitude for whatever degree of success the band has attained. He was responsible for its organization, and throughout the three years ofits existence he has given freely of his time and talent for its welfare. All students and friends of Wlithrow are deeply indebted to him for his faithful and efficient service.

On holidays, and days noted in the activities of the school, the clear, treble tones of the girls can he heard resounding from the platform. in celebrations of sacred events the group renders selections in a manner which stirs the soul with their profound reverence. On gay holidays the girls sing their melodies in a light, ethereal fashion which makes one's heart heat faster, and his spirits rise. The clulx takes an active and effective part in the annual Iune concert. This club not only animates and inspires the school as a whole, hut it benefits the individual girl. This is accomplished not only by increasing her knowledge of the cliatonic scale, and by developing her voice, hut by developing her soulg she learns to interpret music, to use it as a means of expressing her emo- tions. Above all, she is made to feel the Divine Power which inspires all music-lovers. To our competent director, Mr. Ioseph Surdo, who, hy selecting excellent music, hy training the girls, liy illuminating their understanding of music, and by opening their hearts to that which is beautiful, has done all in his power to make the organization a success, we wish to express our thanks and appreciation.

Girls' Select Chorus HE fifth successful year of the Girls' Select Chorus has drawn V T1 Y f to a close. This is made up of a group of girls who love and appreciate the higher grades of music enough to stay and practice after the regular rehearsal of the Girls' Glee Club each XVed- nesday evening. , N These girls have been very faithful in their attendance throughout the year, and all feel that they have been amply repaid for the time and effort spent by the splendid instruction they have received through Mr. Surdo, our most eFlicient leader. , The chorus had the good fortune to have a string quartet accom- 3 6 pany them at the Iune concert which went far toward enhancing the - beauty ofthe numbers.

Coach lvalke, with six letter men left from last year, started to mould into shape one of the best teams Yvithrow High School has ever turned out. This team won six games and lost two. The team traveled to Piqua and was beaten 25-6. Piqua's crack team afterwards turned out to be South-Wlestern Champions. The team, learning much from their defeat by Piqua, beat Hamil- ton in the game played the following week. Sparling's wonderful judgment and Biondi's off-tackle smashes won the game. This is the first time Hamilton has lost to Yvithrow since 1922. Newport came next with a crash and smashed over a victory. In this game a Newport player ran seventy yards, but only to his dismay, because it was the wrong way. Lind brought him down behind his own goal. Then came the game with Yvalnut Hills. The Tigers were too fast and heavy for them, and over- whelmed them by the score of 31-0. After a week's rest the Tigers tackled their old rivals, Hughes. lt was the game which would decide the ownership of the Cornell Cup. The one idea of the school was Beat Hughes and beat Hughes we did, 13-6. The day was bright and the air invigorating. The game was to begin at 3:00 P. M. and by 2:45 P. Nl. the crowds were packed into the stadium. The two schools made their cheers resound against the lndus- trial Arts building. Bands played and pennants were waved. Then the Hughes team came on the field and were given a big welcome by the Hughes students. After they had had their practice, Yvithrow Tigers came dashing out amid the shouts of their loyal supporters. Cheer after cheer went up for the Tigers. Tommy Barrett was making the Hughes team take notice of his practice kicks and punts, some of which were sixty-five and seventy yards. The Yvithrow Band played the Star Spangled Banner and the game was on. Such a gamel Never will a student who witnessed this fray forget it. ln the first few minutes, Hughes, who received the ball on the kickoff, marched down the field and scored a touchdown, but missed the try for goal. The score was 6-0 favor Hughes at the end ofthe first quarter. Hughes kicked off then to Withrow, and by passes and line plays in which Big Ioe Biondi showed himself a real captain and star, Withrow crossed the goal. Barrett kicked goal. Hughes 6, Wlithrow 7. After the kick-off they exchanged punts in which Barrett lead the advantage. Yvith about four minutes to go in the first half, Big Ioe again broke loose and ran twenty-five yards for the last score of the game. Barrett missed the try for goal. During the second half Hughes threatened many times, but the Tigers held, and Tommy with his educated toe would kick out of danger. A wonderful game and a great victory fscore 13-63 for Coach Walke's Tigers. Big Ioe Biondi and Tommy Barrett were stars for Withrow, while Lee starred for Hughes. Next came the game with the Bulldogs of Wloodward and the YVithrow boys took them into camp with ease. Score 32-6. The final game of the season was with Norwood. Again Tommy Barrett's toe made six points for Wlithrow. Tommy kicked two field goals, one from the forty-seven yard line, and the other from the forty-nine yard line. Wurster intercepted a pass and raced thirty-five yards for a touchdown. Score I2-0. This year's football team has had a very good year. Coach XValke is entitled to much credit for the team's success, and hopes to turn out another championship team next year.

Home Room Sports 192526 has shown greater accomplishments in intra-school athletics at kvithrow than any previous year. This tlvpe of ath- letic work has been fostered in a measure ever since the school was founded, but this is the first .vear that we have had enough instructors to extend the work. This .vear some of the time that might have been given to developing what might be called a varsity team has been given to encouraging the formation of teams in the various home rooms of the boys. To give some idea of the number of bo-vs who have taken part in the various activities the following list is given: Football- 11 teams 165 boys taking part Basketball' 23 teams . . 175 bo-vs taking part Cross Country . 50 boys taking part 1ntra-school track . . 100 bolvs taking part YYrestling . 1 12 boys taking part Boxing .......... 150 boys taking part Perhaps we may come to believe that the success ofa school in athletics should be measured by the number of pupils taking part and not by the number who watch from the stands. This extension of athletics has done much to give an opportunity for competitive sports to a group of boys who may never have the chance under the scheme of inter-school contests. Aside from the athletic feature these contests have been the means of providing an opportunity for the boys to form a larger ac- quaintaneeship in the school, and very frequently bringing to the front the boys who will be leaders.

After six weeks of fundamental training, the Tigers played their first game against the strong Highlands team from Kentucky. Although the Tigers lost, they gained much from the game. Next they played the Ludlow High School, also from Kentucky, winning 18-14. The Tigers were made up of small but fast men, and when they played the Alumni they went down in defeat only because of the superior size and strength of the graduates. On Ianuary 9 our team traveled to the U. C. gym to play the strong Hughes team. Hughes had the better team, and there are no excuses to give for the loss of the game. The Tigers fought and played hard throughout the game. The Woodward Bulldogs, on their own floor took revenge for football by running up the score of 49-14. After the end of the first quarter the score was 5-6 Vtloodward, but after Welsh, Seegars, and Bur- wanger started dropping the ball through the hoop there was no hope for victory. Xvalnut Hills was defeated in a close game 21-20. Harding as guard in the last thirty seconds dribbled the length of the floor after getting the ball off the back board and made a field goal and saved the game. Hamilton, one of the strongest quintets in southwestern Ohio, beat the Tigers on their own floor. Bird Marsh starred in this game bringing a roar of applause from the Hamilton rooters by his sensational floor work and basket shooting. The second game with Hughes was played on our own court, but Hughes was too good and fast for the Tigers. Hughes won 30-10. Although the score was poor, the Tigers put up a good fight. The mid-year exams helped to strengthen the Tiger's court team. Diz Marsh, and Munson, the red-headed flash, were regulars as soon as their grades were up. Although the Tigers fought hard against the Bulldogs, they were again unsuccessful. Fast Red Munson was by far the best player on the court at that time. Covington High won the game played at Covington. The Tigers were not up to form, or this game would have been better. By losing their first game in the Dayton fstatej tournament, the Tigers were eliminated from the contest. Walnut Hills pulled the greatest surprise of the season by beating the Tigers on their own floor. Munson and the Marsh brothers played a bang-up game, in spite of the fact that Munson had a bad ankle. Everybody saw the Faculty game in which the Tigers won 28-24. Youth told its tale in that game for in last quarter the lads forged ahead of the worn-out teachers. Tiny Pfeiffer, last year's coach, played a good game for the faculty. Norwood won in their own gym. Norwood beat VVoodward and that's enough said about any basket ball team. Without much material Coach Abrams has developed a good team. This team does not lose a man by graduation, so watch their smoke next year.

In two meets, both of which were held at the Y. M. C. A., we were defeated, a result which was both surprising and unusual to us. A call for candidates was issued in September and a large squad turned out to try for the team. The weeding-out of the less skillful men narrowed the squad down to the several who made up the team-Roe tcaptainj, Vosmer, Brown, Ballman, Bohler, Groppenbacker, Firestone, and Drackett. l With only two letter-men, Roe and Vosmer, and mostly new material in the others to work with, Coach Duning had a difficult task to develop a team to beat the veterans of the other inter-scholastic teams. Coach Duning deserves much credit for his efforts with the team. The fact that we were beaten this year means that we will only tight harder next year. Next season the team, strengthened by experience, will climb to its true form and duplicate the flashing feats of our former victorious teams. En. MORRISON, '26 137 SIEBENTHALER.

Baseball HE usual early spring work-out of the team was seriously retarded because ofthe slow spring, while the new eligibility rules played havoc among the ranlcs of the aspirants. Cautiously and judiciously our new coach, Mr. Duning, moulded an excellent team-first baseman Andres, shortstop Ed. Daly, and pitchers Sparling and Thompsoniethe only remnants of last yearls letter men. The team was off to a bad start, losing the first game to the Bulldogs of Woodward by the close score of 5-3. Quickly reviving from their previous defeat, the Tigers pounced upon the Walnut Hills Eagles, sweeping them away by a 19-1 victory due to our exceedingly heavy sticlc-work and the air-tight twirling of Thompson. With the same impetus, the Orange and Black wiped up the universe with their ancient enemy, Hughes, in a lop-sided game, I5-I. Again the renovated W'ithrowites assailed Wloodward determinedly, seeking to retrieve their loss. The Tiger boys maintained a considerable edge on the Blue and Whites until the ninth inning, when three errors spilled the game into XVoodward's yearning lap, score, 9-8. The next day, the Tigers instituted a new march of victory, overwhelming Miami Nlilitary, 5-2, by the excellent brand of hurling proffered by Sparling. VW: have suffered two defeats which, altho seriously endangering our hope of the championship, do not totally eliminate us from the winning.

Hockey OR the first time in the history of our school, hockey games were participated in by all four classes this year. This made competition very keen, and many interesting games were played. The field was generally rather muddy, but the girls soon grew accustomed to this hindrance. The seniors and sophomores were the chief contestants for the championship. The thrilling game between them was played on Parents' Day, and the seniors were victorious with the score 7 to 0. The Seniors should get special mention as they have never lost a game in their two years of hockey. The following girls who played at least six quarters received letters: lNlARlE KELLERMAN MILDRED CLEMUNS IESSIE BINGHAM THELMA TIIAUHALU IEAN Fos'rER ELizAisE'ru HERIINSTEIN lVllLDRED CORDES LOUISE KENNEDY IUDITH COOPER BETTY SMETuURsT LAURA Pi-:oo1coRu NlARY GILLETTE ELTNICE Mi-:ARIN RUTH GRIMM The teams had the following girls as captains: FRESHMAN . .

Basket Ball ASKET BALL started off unusually well this year as there were enough girls out from each class to make a couple of teams. The freshies were out in great numbers, and as a consequence had a very strong team. Basket ball is really our major sport as several months are given to it. More time is also given to practice before the final games are played, than in most of our sports. This year all the teams were fine, and it was only after a struggle that the seniors beat the freshies lS to 9, thus winning the championship. The winning team did not have a chance to play the faculty, as was done last year, because baseball had to be started. For the first time the girls were awarded letters.

I. Thou shalt not violate thy vows of bachelorhood but if thou hast been already unfortunately lured into marriage, make the worst of it. l, II. Let no false, prevaricating adage, such as the following, influence your decision in regard to matrimony: ,, . ,, . . . . . . . Two can live cheaper than one. This adage is veracious only when the following substitution is made: She can live cheaper an you. IH. Exercise a wise, cautious judgment and solicitous regard for your future welfare when selecting a wife. Avoid all biconjugate women indiscriminately as you value your life. A widow always makes a termagent for husband number two. Beware of all ultra-effeminate women who practice the subtle ruses of deceit, flattery, acquiescence, rouge and lipsticks. Evade all aspiring females who display verbose or pugnacious tendencies. Choose thou no hulking, bulky, brute or bulgv muscles and Iuno-esque propor- tions-remember the woeful lot of Iupiterl Take exceeding care that the lady of thy favor is phlegmatic, not vivaciousg reticent, not loquaciousp veracious, not prevaricativep timid, not obtrusiveg pretty, not uglyg and above all, of a kindly and sympathetic nature. Take heed that she be not bicephalous, so that while fawning upon you with one head, she may not knock you with the other. IV. Never allow your emotions to gain control of your will-power--many a strong man has become in- extricably entangled in the enfolding meshes of the demon marriage when unduly influenced by the subtle, persuasive charms of the fickle sex. V. Always select a homely woman when stepping out that her bulldog cast features may emphatically eradicate all traces of emotion from thy throbbing heart when thou, in an unguarded moment, art too in- tensely actuated by the charm of the stellar firmament. YI. Never remain in close proximity to a beautiful or charming woman for more than thirty seconds- nine-tenths of all cases of heart failure in a young man are directly traceable to the tempting allurements of woman. VII. Abhor all things bearing the slightest resemblance to. orange blossoms, many a good man owes his downfall to the seductive properties of these evil harbingers of marriage. VIII. Always maintain a discreet distance between yourself and moonshine, especially if a young member of the feminine genus be present. This aclmonishment is meant both literally and spirituously. The dazing effects of natural moonshine are well known--but consider well the additional peril when the moon and that obnoxious concoction vulgarly, but truly, named moon-shine, unite in their pernicious efforts against the ease, peace, and security of man. IX.. Heed and beware: That's the insidious thing about love'-one never knows when one has been bitten until too late to flee or extricate oneself from foreign entanglementsf' X. This is the last and most potent commandment, violate it but once, and the author will be irresponsible for the results: Eternal vigilance is the exacting price paid by the masculine race for its securitv, happiness, and liberty. V ..... T fffffffiQliiff .,.. 147 1 , . , , A DIANA'S ADIURATIONS TO SINUOUS SIRENS The following admonishments constitute the laws of the Protective Society for Incipient Spinsters. lu. Thou shalt not violate thy vows of spinterhood, but if thou hast been alreadv ensnared bv strategv into the uncertain state of matrimony- get the most out of thy spouse in theishortest space of time. 2. Before thou art joined in holy wedlock remember the paradoxical assertion: All that glitters is not gold. Conduct an intensive examination into the tinancial resources of your prospective Benedict. Frat pins do not a living make, nor jazzy cars a millionaire. Q Y 3. Avoid the lounge-lizzard type of young man, forever haunting your dreams. Discard the slender sheik with dreamy eyes, for he will make his consort do all the work. 4. Insist that your spouse be able to swing a wicked foot in dancing the Charleston, so that when baby cries he'll be able to lull her to sleep. 5. Never ride in an auto where the seats are joined. Your mental balance might be disturbed. 6. Always select a man with a pocketful of currency regardless of how empty his head is of sense. 7. Practice refrigeration when in the company of a handsome bachelor whose mother thinks that his every demand must be fulfilled,--because you might be one of his phenomenal whims. 8. Demand that your husband furnish his own initialed hand towels so that they will not be mixed up with the guest towels needed for weekly session of the bridge club. 9. Give your husband-to-be some chance to demonstrate his culinary achievements, and thereby lessen the prospects of an immediate visit to a lawyer's office. 10. Lastly, my sisters, if you have lzound a man who measures up to all these requirements, he is the Per- fect Man, so spike him to the tloor, and send for the minister, caterer, and florist.

A few of us have mastered, with laborious effort, the secret of wielding our dangerous cutlery, quietly, adeptly, and efficiently, fewer of us are cognizant of the first rudiments of the art of eating certain articles listed as food. Of all the most deceitful articles for internal consumption, the most egregious conscientious objector, by far, is grapefuit-No one can veraciously dictate the proper manner of eating this malicious fruit, the more voracious consume it in vast quantities, the more audacious devour it, the ignorant eat it , the foolish masticate it, the polished absorb it , the topers imbibe it, and the wise-allow it to remain em- phatically alone and undisturbed. Illustrating the versatility of the grapefruit we notice that some grape- fruit assume an aqueous state, some turn to the solid state, and are acetous in the extreme. One, if in- experienced with this deadly fruit, might think from the misleading name that it bears some resemblance to the grape, but that theory is wrong, grapes are harmless, at least in their original form. The utmost discretion must be exercised in handling the grapefruit, no matter in what manner one advances to the attack. Yvhile speaking of manners, it might be appropriate to state that the manners of the grapefruit are absolutely negligible, it has been the direct cause of more mortification and embarrassment that any other fruit or vegetable, except soup. All needless vulgarity should be dispensed with, because vulgarity in tackling objects requiring delicate tactics, is not amusing, but nauseating. The gra efruit is a most pugnacious and loquacious fruit addicted to retaliating in a watery fashion when attaciied by man. It is also very epicene in character, for it will often prolong a tantalizing encounter for hours in the approved feminine fashion, and then abruptly put a stop to the conflict by deluging its hapless o ponent with a vicious straight-to-the-eye in the accredited masculine manner. The reputation of the grapeguit has now assumed such alarming proportions that only the most mundane and cosmopolitan will dare to challenge its social position. Wlhen a mere amateur has the audacity to attempt to eat one of these deadly boomerangs, it would be well for him to remember the following cursory conjurations, that the attempted conquest of grapefruit is not yet an acceptable excuse for tardiness at school, that the aqueous tendencies of a grape- fruit dispense with the need of a shower and render the bath-tub an ideal spot for controversy, that the grapefruit has violent propensity for ejecting stinging streams of smarting, bitter, irritating juice at the noncombatants surveying the titancic struggles, and which renders it imperative that all on-lookers be adequately provided with durable slickers, hip-length boots, and especially with glasses, as the eyes are most attractive to the vindictiveness of the grapefruit. Many an excellent man's tranquility has been disturbed by the terrorizing aspect of a grapefruit, huge in structure, and alarming in its saffron hue, pur- suing him relentlessly--with the most modern and effective juice-squirting apparatus. Indeed, often when I meditate upon the irritating properties of that most retrograde of fruits my mind instinctively reverts to that apt definition by Wlebster. Unabridged of the word edible something that can be eaten by the human race. 14 I just burned up a hundred dollar bill. You must be a millionaire. UNO. It's easier to burn them, than to pay them. Tell all you know, it won't take long. I'll tell what you know too, it won't take any longerf I know a guy who's so lazy he gets up at five o'clock so he'll,have more time to loaf. Dum: Why do you call your car the Regulator? Dummer: All other cars go by it. Ma: Son, how did you get that black eye? Bud: I was protectin' a little boy. Ma: That was noble, son. Who was he? Bud: lVle. Con: YVhat were you doing at the accident. Clave: scraping up an acquaintance. Consider the fish, he never gets caught. as long as he keeps his mouth shut. 152 ,pinning-.14 :: ul-.54 1:-1-.Q..i..i..1.n.-.p.....1..
