No?', Scene from Three Cornered Moon, Senior Class Play for 1936, staged and produced by the Play Shop, senior dramatic club. FCDREWCDQD We, the Saga-Tattler staff of 1936, take great pleasure in presenting this volume to the readers. il This book is the su- preme materialization of all our efforts. We do not claim that we have prepared a faultless book, neither do we Wish to present apologies for the edition. We say simply that it contains the best of our efforts. 'li As this book is a senior memorial, it is only flt- ting and proper that the seniors occupy a prominent place within its covers. If just one senior will take this book in some future year and use it to recall his glamorous and carefree school life, We will feel abundantly repaid for our efforts. Tl We Wish to thank all of those on whom We imposed so much for guidance and help. Q6 Leaflet! V r ' l if CAMS C llfrqlue CNJO OUR principal and guiding star, Charles C. LaRue, we dedicate this Saga, the efforts of the class of '36. Throughout our four years of high school life he has acted as a friend and counsellor, ready to give advice to any member of the student body. His advice is based on true rea- soning and impartial judgement. When we of the senior class were just beginners in second- ary education, we looked to this benevolent person as the prin- cipal---perhaps a little remote from the actual student activitiesg but as time went on, we found in him the true qualities of a sincere adviser. First impressions gave way to lasting onesg and now, as we are ready to leave Woodward, We carry with us pleasant mem- ories of our associations with our genial principal. As we think of all the merits which our principal has shown during our high school life, we feel more than justified in dedicating our year book to him. 'rm l CLASSES O SENIQD CABINET l Miss Amie Miller Theodore Nichpor Adviser President Mr R K Sheline Jessie Mathie Adviser Vice-President T WAS characteristic of the senior class of 1986 that it chose its oflicers well. Under the capable leadership ofTheodore Nichpor as president, the cabinet, together with the respective committees, planned and arranged the various social functions of the class. Committee chairmen were: Dor- othy Kaszubiak, promg Bertha Payak, socialg Rita Loerke, banquetg Walter Schulish, programg Donald Anthony, playg Eugene Zytkus, picnic, and Frederick Holtfreter, graduation. Festivities began with a Hick Party which proved to be highly successfulg it was declared by many to have furnished the most enjoyable time they had experi- enced at class affairs. After Christmas vacation, the Play Shop presented the annual class play. This year it was Three Cornered Moonf' A delighted audience again paid tribute to the ability of Miss Warner to please. Held in the spring of the year, the Senior Prom climaxed long weeks ofanxiety for both boys and girls who found bashfulness a decided detriment to securing dates. Such difficulties as this, however, are no obstructions to youthg and everyone was present at the Woments Building on that eventful night. Both the senior banquet and the class picnic proved to be smashing successes. Students who had worked through four years of high school together played in the same way for the last time at these celebrations. Then, too, an account of the activities of the senior class cannot be complete without reference to the splendid programs presented at regular meetings. They were planned to contain educational value and still remain entertaining. All in all, this fourth year of high school has been a glorious one for each of us. It was proper that strikingly beautiful commencement exercises should crown the activities of a class so triumphant in all respects. But not all the credit must go to the ohficers and students. Far from it. It was the cooperation of advisers and their willingness to Work that made these events possible. Miss Miller and Mr. Sheline deserve a great deal of credit.

As Freshmen they dis- tinguished themselves by placing many on the honor roll. High scholastic achieve- ments continued in the Sophomore year. When the group became an organization early this fall, oflicers were elected and committees which represented the fine leadership of the class chosen. The pro- grams of their meetings have been interest- ing and entertaining as well as educational. Nor has the social side been neglected, for on December the fourth they frolicked as Ukidsv again at their annual Junior Kid Party. One of the outstanding events of the year, which brought together many Juniors, was the J-Hop at the Chamber of Commerce on February iifteenth. On March sixth The Charm School, the Jun- ior class play, was given by the Little Theater Guild. Presentation of the class rings at the annual Junior Ring dance formed the climax of the year. Juniors are now looking forward to their senior year with its new experiences. They aim to realize the fulfillment of the hopes and ideals which Woodward has inspired in them. First rowz Mr. Meek, Viola Payak, Ellen Jane Scott, Eleanor Schmardebeck, Emma Berdue, Chester Zytkus, William Loerke, Daniel Krzvzaniak, Miss Cronk Second row: Dorothy Siebenallar, Lula Belle Holbrook, Marcella Micheles, Robert Falor, John Bielski, Clement Mikolajczyk Y N HTH the election of capable, compe- tent oflicers, the Sophomore class of 1936 was introducedg and the cabinet has been entirely successful in its class play, 'fAccent on Musicj' in which the talent of theclass was brought forth. In May, the class gave its annual class dance, May Frolic. The Sophomore class helped to make the Gayety Night a success by sponsoring a dance which was held in the Woodward Ballroom. It not only played an important part socially, but also proved its worth in the scholastic field, for it has placed second in the standings of the classes in scholarship. Under the able leadership of Miss Cronk and Mr. Meek, the Sophomores as an organized group for the first time since they entered the por- tals of Woodward, have shown that the class of '38 will carry on the fine traditions of the school. BOPHOMORES MCDST PGPULAR WITH THE FRCDSH Mary Jayne Frankowski Mr. A. D. Johnson Raymond Sheline FROM every school within the range of Woodward's far-reaching arms, came the freshmen last September. Each year has brought many of these eager, new stu- dents to the portals of our place of learn- ing. Seven-hundred strong they came this year, as representatives of Chase, River- side, Stickney, Lagrange, Spring, Parkland, Sherman, Hamilton, and Webster schools. What does the future hold in store for these adventurers? Already some of them have made a niche for them selves and have gained recognition among the students. Some have attained scholastic honors, while others have merited honors in music, or the various sports. Experience has taught these Woodwardites that they are considered a cog in the wheel of school life, and that they are expected to support every activity to the best of their ability. No matter what their task may be, with per- severance and diligence they have, and will overcome all obstacles and finally climb the high-school ladder of success. In 1939, when the high school voyage has been completed we expect the majority of these students to go forth to carry on their various professions in the same manner, and with as much zest, as when they began their secondary careers.

Woodward, 3 Qjgjice sststcznts in 6- Miss Barbara Smith Miss Opal Drennan Miss Florence Schindler QQC,fxmaZMeQms EMM STA F F Li FTER the selection of a persevering, industrious staff by a committee of faculty members, work was immediately begun on this year's Saga-Tattler. There was a conscientious attempt on the part of every staff member to alter the year book, but because of lack of funds, this idea had to be dismissed. If they could have continued the plans for the revised Saga, it would have involved a large sum of money which the faculty advisers and the staff members thought would have been unwise to invest. Conse- quently they are again publishing the old form of year book which contains the Tattlers. Regardless of this disappointment, they have added to and subtracted from the old style until an entirely different year book is being offered to you, the Student Body, for your enjoyment and pleasure. These changes are apparent and do not require any further dis- cussion. Keeping always in mind that the Saga-Tattler will in future years be the only memoir of happy school days that have gone forever, the staff has endeavored to prepare a volume truly representative of an entire year at Woodward High School. as-' 'lhe Alchemist Society The officers of the Alchemist So- ciety were Steven Korecki, Presidentg Wilbur Hague, Vice-President, Thad- deus Demski, Secretary, Jack Bate- sole, Treasurer, Donald Knoke, Re- porter, and Mr. Staneart, Adviser. The Alchemist Society, one of the oldest organizations at Woodward, was founded upon the intense inter- est of students for chemistry and physics outside of class-room. This year's schedule ofthe Alchemist So- ciety was full. Notable professors and competent chemists gave edu- cational talks at the regular club meetings. Trips to various factories were arranged to demonstrate the importance ofchemistry and physics in the industrial world. Some of these more interesting trips were those to the Astronomical Observatory at Toledo University and to the Toledo Edison Company. Art Klan Headed by Raymond Rojek as President, the following are officers of the Art Klan: Rita Loerke, Vice- Presidentg Martha Murzynski, Secre- tary, Alice Saba, Treasurerg Dorothy Kaszubiak, Reporter, and Zygmond Kaczmarek, Sergeant-at-arms. The dance f'Star Dust was one of the most colorful entertainments of the current year, given by the Art Klan on January 10. The untiring efforts and ingenious planning made it such. Decorations for the All Club dance and the painting of mu- rals which depict the activities of the various organizations at Woodward for the Club Room were some ofthe services rendered by this industrious group. At Christmas, a party was held at Riverside Shelter house, and etched Christmas cards were sold. The adviser of the Art Klan is Miss June Anderson. WXTTLER S TA F F 3 EVENTEEN years ago in Woodward Technical high school a group of printing students and their instructor, Hugh Montgomery, decided to name the school's three-column newspaper, L Woodward Tattler. The purpose of this newspaper was to stimulate student interest in printing. Two years later pupils in the English department formed a staff and began to write the copy. However the printing of the paper was still left in the hands of printing students. Today The Tattler is the only city high school newspaper published weekly and without advertising. It has the lowest cost and is one of the two city high school newspapers printed by students. The writing staff is advised by Mrs. Marie Ersig while Mr. Montgomery continues to direct the printing of the paper. Although the size of the school press necessitates a four-column paper, The Tattler is proud of the fact that it is an all-student project, allowing students of printing as well as aspiring writers an outlet for their creative abilities. Beginners in newswriting, recommended by English teachers, are thoroughly trained in the elements of journalism by Mrs. Ersig. At the end of the year the most outstanding are then chosen to fill vacancies left by graduating seniors. The informality of the proverbial newspaper office reigns in The Tattler oflice. This freedom of expression results in whole-hearted co-operation and the cultivation of many beautiful friendships. Meeting daily, instead of two or three times a week as some staffs do, causes every member to feel himself a vital part of the newspaper. The Tattler reflects Woodward school life, and it honestly strives to promote those interests which tend to benefit Woodward high school. l The Automotive-Aviation Club The officers of the Automotive-Avi- ation Club were Thomas Callahan, President, John Zaenger, Vice-Presi- dentg Edwin Zarn, Secretaryg Karl Werling, Treasurer. The Automotive Club and the Avi- ation Club became one organization this year under the guidance of Mr. Nuber, the adviser. This group gave 'tCollege Fraternityf' a pep meeting, for the Woodward-Lima-South foot- ball game. As in previous years, the air circus was held in the gym where models of both flying and non-flying air machines made by the members were exhibited. Several trips to Tole- do's airports were made. Many prom- inent aviators were scheduled to speak at the meetings. A social affair, the annual party, completed a suc- cessful year for the Automotive-Avi ation Club. Band The officers of the Band were Har- old Boehler, Presidentg Robert Wal- terschied, Vice-Presidentg Helen Har- rison, Secretary-Treasurerg and Mr. Sutphen, Adviser. Thirty-two members playing either horns, reeds, or drums under the batonship of Daniel Kryzaniak, its new drum major, made up our peppy band. The Band escorted the team to every football game, even to the Dayton-Kaiser game. The Engineer- ing Club made this trip possible. There is little doubt but that the band's presence helped the team win the 6-0 victory. Our blue and white uni- formed group marching down the field made a never-to-be-forgotten im- pression. In the spring, the Wood- ward Band participated in the Annu- al May Festival held at Scott High School. Engineering Society The officers of the Engineering Society were Harold Christy, Presi- dent, Casimir Obloza, Vice-Presidentg Thaddeus Demski, SecretarygJerome Janiszewski, Treasurerg Joseph Mey- e1', Sergeant-at-Armsg and Mr. Rohr, Adviser. Knowing that engineering plays an important part in the construction ofman's material world, the program of the Engineering Society has been consistent in its purpose, for many factories were visited to give the members an idea of the complicated and massive machinery employed in industry. The visit to the Ford Facto- ry in Detroit was an interesting one. This club sponsored the movie, UThe Cat's Pawj' which enabled the Band to go with the football team to Day- ton for the Wooclward-Kaiser game. Fasces Club The officers of the Fasces Club were Alice Farris, Presidentg Rita Kasprzak, Vice-Pres.g Jessie Mathie, Sccretaryg Jane Woloski, Treasurerg Elva Landwehr, Reporterg Morris Rappaport, Sergeant-at-Armsg and Mr. Phipps, Adviser. The first activity of the Fasces Club was the initiation held at River- side Shelter House. Forty pledges were inducted. A study of the an- cient history ofRome was scheduled for its year's program. Later in the fall, this club promoted the second skating party given at Memorial Hall. lt drew a large crowd and was ac- claimed a success by all who attend- ed. A Christmas party brought many of its members together on Decem- ber 21. At the close of the year, a pic- nic was held at Ottawa Park. G Freie Bahn The cabinet of the Freie Bahn was composed of Nynphiadora Funke, Presidentg Virginia Schlievert, Vice- Presidentg Emily Braunschweiger, Secretaryg Joseph Meyer, Treasurerg and Miss Wetterman, Adviser. During the year 1935-1936, the Freie Bahn became one of the most active clubs at Woodward. The mass meeting, School Daysf, which in- cited high enthusiasm for the DeVilbiss-Woodward football game, was presented with the aid of La Junta Castellana. In December these two clubs also gave the Christmas dance, appropriately named f'Weih- nachstanzfl On February 28, The Womanless Weddingf' a farce comedy composed solely of boys, was given for an activities program. Le Cercle Francais The cabinet of Le Cercle Francais was Julia Bennett, Presidentg Aaron Novick,Vice-PresidentgFrancisDunn, Secretaryg BettyLoudenslager, Treas- urerg Jeanette Damraur, Reporterg and Miss Curtis, Adviser. Le Cercle Francais completed a successful year for 1935-1936. It spon- sored the first afternoon dance of the year with the aid of the Interna- tional Club. Many of its members participated in the Armistice Pro- gram presented by the lnternational Club. A real French Christmas party was held in December to which all the students of the French Depart- ment were invited. The most out- standing event was the Eighth An- nual Coed Prom. The theme, Leap Year, was delightfully carried out in silhouettes. Sophomore Friendship The Cabinet of the Sophomore Friendship Club was composed of Ethel Crane, President, Ethel Scheidler, Vice-President, Ellen Jane Scott, Secretary, Betty Blankenstein, Treasurer: Emma Berdue, Chaplain, Dorothy Siebenaller, Hostessg and Miss Bardo, Adviser. After aiding the Freshmen to organize their own club and install- ing their ofiicers at the Annual Rec- ognition Service, the Sophomore Friendship Club began its activities. A roast held at Ottawa Park was its first social function of the year. This club sponsored dancing lessons given in the gym for the Junior Hi- Y boys. ln December, a Christmas program was given for the crippled at the Convalescence Home. The Little Theatre Guild furnished the music for the occasion. International Club The officers of the International Club were Sam Levin, President, Nathan Schwartz, Vice-President, Charlotte Essick, Secretaryg Clara Bustow, Treasurer, Aaron Novick, Reporter, and Miss Curtis, Adviser. The International Club endeavors to create goodwill internationally by correspondence with other students all over the world and by lively dis- cussions of current events. The Arm- istice Day Program was again spon- sored by this organization with the aid of Le Cercle Francais. All the members of these two clubs partici- pated in this colorful pageant called Youth and Its World.i' These two clubs also gave the first afternoon dance of the year which was a great success. Miss Cronk,was assisted in her welfare work by this club. Freshman Friendship The officers of the Freshman Friendship Club were Cloine Myers, President, Helen Trautman, Vice- Presidentg Kathyrn Braunschweiger, Secretary, Charlotte Busicker, Treasurer, Wilma Lytten, Chaplain, and Miss Woodrich, Adviser. Scarcely a year old, the Freshman Friendship Club boasts a member- ship of eighty active members. The devolopment of Personality was an important discussion at its monthly meetings. Other interests were book reviews and welfare work. Many members adopted an orphan of the Miami Orphanage to whom letters and gifts were sent. A skat- ing party was held at the Y. W. C. A. in December. A Valentine party was enjoyed On February 14. This club also sent a delegate to the Friend- ship Conference at Dayton, Ohio, held February 22 and 23. Glee Club The officers of the Glee Club were Zygmond Kaczmarek, President, Mor- ris Rappaport, Vice-President, Marie Hirzel, Secretary, Florence Gotthelf, Treasurer, Blanche Schlererth, Re- porter, and Mr. Ball, Adviser. As a class, the Glee club studied, under the guidance of Mr. Ball, the Theory of Music and the lives and works of great composers. As an or- ganization, the Glee Club presented the musical-comedy, Campus Dazefl on the. evening of February 11th. Be- cause it was a great success, another operetta was produced in the spring. The Bohemian Girl was indeed a colorful presentation of gypsy life. Junior Hi-Y The officers of the Junior Hi-Y were William Loerke, Presidentg Alfred Greenwood, Vice-Presidentg Mahlon Swisshelm, Secretaryg Geo. Spaulding, Treasurer, Robert Falor, Sergeant-at-Armsg and Mr. Duven- dack and Mr. Phipps, Advisers. The program of the Junior Hi-Y consisted mainly of talks by various speakers, some of whom were Coach Smith on sports, Mr. Miller on lead- ership, Mr. Ivan Smith on swimming, and Mr. Duvendack on travels. Par- liamentary law was another topic of interest to the Junior Hi-Y. In sports, its intra-mural team entered in all the tournaments. It lost the cham- pionship basketball game to Waite on New Yearis day. The Flying Hi, a skating party, was sponsored by this club, February 5, at Memorial Hall. La Junta Castellana The oflicers of La Junta Castellana were Ruth Devlin, Presidentg Ethel Crane, Vice-Presidentg Dora Jack- man, Secretaryg Sylvester Urbanski, Treasurerg Annette Veller, Reporter, and Miss Wetterman, Adviser. 'KWhere there is a will, there is a way, is the proud motto of La Junta Castellana, which no doubt accounted for its successful program during 1935-1936. Two mass meetings were given, one in October and the other in February, which did much to arouse school spirit. Weinacht- stanz, a christmas dance was an- other function sponsored by this club. The Silver Teaf' an annual affair of the spring, was a great success. The most colorful event which brought to a close a successful season was the Floral Games bringing togeth- er participants from all the language departments. l Little Theatre Guild The oflicers of the Little Theatre Guild were William Bloomer, Presi- dentg Violet Sheckler, Vice-Presi- dentg Laura Ellen Derr, Secretary, Juliette Sear, Treasurerg Norma Jean Allen, Reporterg and Miss Kellogg, Adviser. Participation to the fullest extent in theatre Work and its allied arts made the Ligtle Theatre Guild year a dramatic success. Noticing an in- terest in music among the boys, a twelve-piece orchestra was Organ- ized. This orchestra furnished the musical effects for all productions, besides entertaining at social func- tions. The Birds' Christmas Carol was presented on December 17 for the school. Next came the Sopho- more Class Play, 'tAccent on Musicf, an original musical comedy which was thoroughly enjoyed on Febru- ary 6.

Numerous successful activities made the Senior Hi-Y calendar a full one. Early in the fall a joint Weiner roast was held at Bay View Park with the Friendship girls. Later, a similar affair was held with the Zets at Ottawa Park. The most popular success was the skating party in November. The Ohio Older Boys' conference at Tiffin was attended by nine Wood- ward boys, the largest group from Toledo. 1 5 l l Senior Friendship The ofiicers of the Senior Friend- ship Club were Faith Eger, President, Dorothy Smith, Vice-President, Hen- rietta Rump, Chaplain, Marietta May, Secretary, Doris Rokicki, Treasurerg and Miss Nelson, Adviser. The annual Recognition Service opened this year's activities for the Senior Friendship Club. Blue and White colors were again sold by this loyal club prior to the Waite-Wood- ward game.

A splash party and a pot-luck at the Y.W.C.A. was enjoyed in January. A tea, honoring the Friendship girls of Scott High, was given in the club room, February 3. The final and im- portant event was the annual city- wide banquet held in the spring. Social Science The cabinet of the Social Science Club consisted of Robert Simmons, President, Hazel Johnson, Vice-Pres- ident: Annette Veller, Secretary, Betty Celeste, Treasurerg Morris Rappaport, Reporterg and Miss Ru- tan, Adviser. The purpose of the Social Science Club is to stimulate and promote interest in its respective fields. The program arranged for the year was built around the theme of Africa and its related subjects. An old-fashioned ball, honoring the anniversary of George Washington, was given in February.Those attending the aifair saw the first cabinet of our land come to life when the cabinet of the Social Science Club impersonated Washing- tonis cabinet. On February 10, a Neutrality Program was presented for the student assembly. 7 if -i, H.,-ff Polish Literary Society The officers of the Polish Liter- ary Society were Stanley Swat, President, Roman Stalka, Vice-Presi- dentg Loretta Barczak, Treasurer, Virginia Malinowski, Secretary, and Mr. Robie, Adviser. A newly organized club which has become most popular is the Polish Literary Society, resulting naturally from the introduction of the Polish language and the fact that many of Woodward students are of Polish de- scent. The yearis program was to gain a knowledge of the language, literature, and history of Poland. Aside from literary interest, other activities were enjoyed. It was repre- sented in sports by an intra-mural team, and several one-act Polish plays were given. It is apparent that this young club plans to go places and do things. 7 'L Quill Andwbagger The oiiicers of the Quill and Dag- ger Literary Society were Howard Francis, President, Lowell Weaner, Vice-President, Jack Batesole, Secre- tary, Harold Boehler, Treasurer, Walter Schulisch, Reporterg and Mr. McMurray, Adviser. This year the Quill and Dagger Literary Society acquired a new ad- viser, Mr. McMurray, a new member of the faculty. This club sponsored an activities program early in the fall. In January, a coasting party was held with the Zetalethean Lit- erary Society at Ottawa Park. At its club meetings, either some member gave a book review or a prominent outside speaker talked. This year's distinctions were black wool sweat- ers with orange emblems consisting of a quill and a dagger. At the close of the school year, a farewell banquet for the graduates was held, at which next year's officers were formally in- stalled. l W Club The officers of the WU Club were Emily Braunschweiger, Presidentg Betty Jane Taylor, Vice-President, Jean King, Secretaryg Clyda Lee Ridenhower, Treasurerg and Miss McClure and Miss Cornwell, Ad- visers. The membership of the UWM Club is limited to those girls who have played on an intra-mural team and have ranked high in the tests on va- rious sports. The point system makes these girls eligible to receive a KWH letter or a chevron on Recognition Day. The annual Thanksgiving dance ma-rked the first social affair of the W Club. Later in the fall, the Waite 'KWH Club entertained the Woodward 'KWH Club with a splash party and a potluck. At the close of school, the Club went on its annual week-end party, at Catawba Cliffs. Zetalethea-n Literary Society The officers of the Zetalethean Lit- erary Society were Nynphiadora Funke, Presidentg Rita Loerke, Vice- Presidentg Alice Farris, Recording Secretary, Emily Braunschwieger, Corresponding Secretaryg Frances Dunn, Treasurerg Bertha Jakcsy, Chaplaing Bertha Payak, Reporterg Henrietta Rump, Sergeant-at-Arms, and Miss Edith Murphy, Adviser. After the induction of 23 pledges, the first skating party ofthe year was held at the Coliseum, October 18. A clever farce, Who Killed Cock Rob- in? was presented at a mass meet- ing in November. Later, a roast with the Senior Hi-Y was given at Ottawa Park. In January, a coasting party was enjoyed with the Quill and Dag- gers, A Valentine tea, honoring the DeVilbiss Zets, was held in the library. The annual card party of March was a great success. .fn IF :X 1 - f W Stucfezzt Cbwzccl JC fl fl W WMM A WV ,g fvw' .QIJU The cabinet ofthe Student Council consisted of Nynphiadora Funke, Presidentg Raymond DeLano, Vice- Presidentg Joseph Meyer, Secretary- Treasurerg and Mrs. Schuler and Mr. Duvendack, Advisers. Although the Student Council was elected rather late in the fall, the chosen representatives lost no time in setting up the machinery of the law-enforcing body. The Proportional Representation Method used in this year's election proved to be very sat- isfactory. The sociology and civics classes assisted in carrying out this complicated system. The result was eight representatives from the Senior and Junior classes, and six represent- atives from the Sophomore and Freshman classes. The Court tried all cases of misdemeanor. Only fair decisions were rendered by this judi- cial body. X, fx I 5 ll:ll ATHLETICS were received for the nine sports during the past year. These games are: pass and tap football, volleyball, basketball, basketball goal shooting, basketball foul shooting, handball, horse shoes, softball, and relays. The sports are divided up so that there is a program for the entire yearg thirty-two weeks are required to run through the entire list. Over seven hundred contests were played during these weeks, taking place after school four nights a week. Arrangements for the tournaments in each sport are made, and officials for the games are chosen by the lntra-mural Managers' Club consisting of one boy representing each team. Howard Francis is president of the club. The mem- bers of the club in the picture above in the first row, left to right, are: Walter McVicker, Mayland Swisshelm, Joe Francis, Irvin Dorf, Howard Francis, Homer Hanham, adviser, Lucian Lupinski, Joseph Gajewski, Ted Shaff, Edward Mack, Henry Topor. In the sec- ond row: Richard Norris, Stanley Swat, Arthur Sievert, Julian Maxwell, Florian Liu- kowski, Ralph Knieram, Robert Bolli, Thomas McMahon, Emerson Truss, and Frank Goldie. Homer Hanham and Art Smith, gym teachers, are in charge of the intra-mural pro- gram and were assisted this year by Joe Bloom, a former Woodward student, who is taking a trainer-course to become a gym teacher. The intra-mural participants are divided into two groups, the American and National leagues, with eight teams to a league. A champion is determined for each sport in each of the two leagues, and they hold a play-off for the school championship. The team emerging in first place for the year is awarded emblems designed by Lucian Lupinski, a student in the art class. The Polish Knights were campions for 1935. Toward the end of the year a class track meet was held for the freshmen, sophomores, juniors, and seniors. Woodward has the best intra-mural program in the city, and if the number of participations were figured up, they would total well over ten thousand. In the girls' Intra-Murals there are two separate leagues into which the teams are divided, namely, American and National. There are five teams in one, and six in the other, each having either eleven or twelve members. The teams in the separate leagues play each other in an elimination tournament seasonable sport. At the end of each tournament, the winners and runners-up in each league play each other to determine the school champion. The winning team then receives a certain number of points as does the team playing second. At the end of the year, the points are totaled, and the team having the highest number of points receives, on Recognition Day, emblems upon which is printed in some form the fact that the team is Intra-Mural Champion. The sports in the succession in which they are played are the following: soccer, volley-ball, tennis, basket-ball, table-tennis, hit-pin baseball, indoor-baseball, and archery. Another interesting point about IntraMurals is that all the games are refereed by the girls, and not the gym instructors. These girls are known as leaders, and Have a special class in which they study the sports and are taught how to lead other girls. Lg N THE BOYS' intramural sports department, nine hundred and sixty entrants C7 QW 612 C CJ J Ztcct Mr. Clyde M. Meek L' S DIRECTOR of athletics for the third consecutive year, Clyde Meek arranged one of the fullest athletic programs throughout the past year that XVoodward has ever had. Mr. Meek also had charge of the Northwestern Ohio baseball tournament held in May at DeVilbiss high school. Baseball was resumed at Woodward after a lapse of six years with Mr. L. C. Clark, seated on the left in the picture on the left side below, as coach. Mr. Clark also had charge of the lightweight football team. Next to him is David McMurray, an Ypsilanti graduate, who was added to the coaching staff to assist in football and to coach the reserve basketball team. Reading from left to right in the top row, the coaches are: L. J. Robie, assistant lightweight football, fresh- man basketball, and assistant baseball coach, llomer llanham, basketball and assistant football: Arthur Smith, football and track, Howard Phipps, golf and bowling coach. Frank Duvendack, not in the picture, is the coach of the tennis team, this being the first year that a regular schedule was played. Mr. Robie is another addition to the staff this year. a graduate of St. Mary's college in Detroit. ln the right-hand picture are the members of the athletic board. Seated are E. R. Rike and Charles LaRue, on the right. From left to right in the second row are Clyde Meek, llenry Van Gorder and Lawrence Nuber. These teachers appoint coaches to fill vacancies in the staff and decide on any important moves in the athletic department. Mr. Hanham and Mr. Smith were newly appointed to their respective positions this year. Four hundred and fifty activities tickets were subscribed for by students this year. Sold mostly on the installment plan, these tickets, costing three dollars and fifty cents, if ordered last year, entitled the owner to admission to thirty-three events, athletic and dramatic programs and movies. The student representation at football and, particu- larly, basketball games was one of the largest of the six schools in the city. One of the reasons for the smaller number of activities tickets sold compared with the year before is the limited seating capacity in the gym. A movement is on foot to obtain government aid in enlarging the seating arrangements for next year. Having a large athletic debt on their hands from past years, the board decided to sponsor a carnival to raise the required funds. A contest for the student body resulted in the name Gaiety Night being chosen for the event on April 24. Tickets were dis- tributed through the home rooms, prizes being offered for the pupils in each class sell- ing the largest number. Sales were p1'omoted by using an advancement system similar to that of an army as an increasing number of tickets were sold. Programs given in the auditorium by various groups were rewards for those obtaining the different ranks in the army, llenry Van Gorder was general chairman of the carnival, and the activities and concessions were operated by the clubs in the school. Twenty-eight of these extra- curricular organizations cooperated in this enture.

The two players above and Hiltman, Schoonmaker, and Keller were the only letter men on the team, and only three others had var- sity experience from the year before. This year twenty-seven letters were awarded to as many players by the athletic department. Art Smith replaced Rol Bevan as head coach with Homer Hanham and Dave McMurray, a newcomer to Woodward, as assistants. All of the nine contests, except those with Fort Wayne and Lima, were played away from home, the Waite, Libbey, and DeVilbiss games taking place at night under flood-lights. Two out-of-town trips were taken, to Dayton and Cleveland. f j , . OACH L. C. CLARK had thirty-five boys on the Lightweigutii 'tball squad this year, sixteen freshmen, hfteen sophomores, and four juniors. The lightweight team, a training school for the varsity, has to organize practically a whole new team each year, only four of the 3 J . 1. boys were from the 1934 squad. L. J. Robie was placed on the coaching staff this year as assistant coach for the lightweights. The cubs played five games this year on the regular schedule and three practice games, two ,llfk i Q with Perrysburg and one with Whitmer high school. Results of the sched- f X l . uled games are Central 13, Woodward 0 5 Scott 13, Woodward 0, Libbey 12, ti li 1 ' it Woodward 73 DeVilbiss 21, Woodward 123 Waite 7, Woodward 14.

Only two of the members, Casimer Obloza and Bill Kowalski, had earned letters in 1935, but several of the others had experience in team play. Six members and two alternates were carried on the squad for each match. The matches were played in three foursomes, the two ranking players of each school playing to- gether, and in the same way the other two groups were selected.

In the sixteen scheduled games, Florian Tschogl, forward, established a new city record by scoring 222 points, an average of about fourteen points a game. In the order of their occurance, the score of the games are as follows: Holland 13, Woodward 39, Blissfield 12, Woodward 59, Fremont 35, Wood- ward 36 Ltherelg Scott 28, Woodward 32 qthereyg Waite 22, Wood- ward 27 CthereJg Maumee 23, Woodward 295 St. John's 13, Woodward 33, Libbey 28, Woodward 41, Central 13, Woodward 333 DeVilbiss 27, Woodward 31g Scott 21, Woodward 40g Waite 19, Woodward 41, St. Johnis 23, Woodward 27 ftherejg Libbey 24, Woodward 35 ttherejg Central 24, Woodward 34 Qtherejg DeVilbiss 25, Woodward 21 fthereb. Except for those games marked above, all of the con- tests were played in the Woodward gym. The Bears amassed 568 points to 360 for the opponents in the twenty games, inclfuding tournament contests. The record for the tournament, held at the Toledo University field house is Woodward 30, Scott 21, DeVilbiss 23, Woodward 335 Sylvania 20, Woodward 405 St. John's 21, Wood- ward 26.

All of the first string players and several others were members of the city Champion reserve teams which Mr. Hanharn coached in 1932 and 1933. The first team members, Hiltman, Tschogl, Boroughf, Swantek, and Schoonmaker, were also all lettermen on the foot- ball team.

The reserve team had a little harder time with its games but managed to beat DeVilbiss 25- 24 in the last game of the season after losing the two previous contests, to take the city championl ship for the sixth time in seven years. Dave McMurray, an English teacher, coached the team this year, replacing Mr. Hanham, pres- ent varsity coach. The reserve squad of this year was composed mainly of players from the former city champion freshman team of 1935. The schedule played by the cubs paralleled that of the varsity as to dates, the reserves playing a preliminary game each night. Scores for the sesson were Holland 13, Woodward 29, Miller Weld ers 19, Woodward 23, Fremont St. Joe 21, Woodward 33, Scott 27 Woodward 46, Waite 15, Woodward 23, Maumee 11, Woodward 19g St. John's 20, Woodward 21, Libbey 15, Woodward 17, Central 21, Woodward 26, DeVilbiss 14, Woodward 215 Scott 7, Woodward 175 Waite 19, Woodward 375 St. John's 14, Woodward 23, Libbey 31, Woodward 24, Central 24, Woodward 22, DeVilbiss 24, Woodward 25, It will be seen by the scores that most off the games were very close and the boys had to fight for each victory. Fourteen letters were awarded to the players on Recognition Day. As all but three of the varsity graduate this year, reserve players will be moved up to take their places next season. The first team was composed of Greenwood, Hoskins, Jaswiecki, Boykin, and Stack. Skip Boy- kin was the high scoring ace of the team with eighty-one points tor the season, while Jaswiecki followed closely with seventy-five, To make a clean sweep for Woodward in basketball, the Freshman team, coached by L.

Molly Meerkreb and Sam Schall received the award for achieving the highest ranking in their class respectively, while James Hope was awarded the scholarship for his work on the Tattler. One hundred and four Wood- ward graduates will enter the university this year. Woodward P. T. A. Schedules First Meeting Wednesday The first meeting of the Wood- ward Parent-Teachers' Associa- tion has been scheduled for Wednesday, September 18 at 7:45 in the school cafeteria. Mrs. Schuppe, publicity chair- man, announced that Principal C. C. LaRue will speak, and the Woodward band will supply musical entertainment. Merle Devlin is president of the organ- ization. FOUR HUNDRED BUY ACTIVITIES TICKET S2.55 Saved With Purchase Of Card Declares Clyde Meek This year's activities ticket brings a new high for the num- ber of events on one pass. In all there will be thirty-three act- ivities totaling SS6.55 when figured by simple admission prices. This card sold at a special price of 353.50 last spring and the start of this year,but now the regular price of 354.00 is in effect The thirty-three on the 1935-36 card consist of six movies, seven football games, nine basketball tilts, and eleven entertainments. Another advantage of the ticket is admission to mass meetings, those without passes will not be able to attend. Last year eight-hundred pupils bought the pass and attended only the home games of the team. This year, due to the fact that all the city football battles are being played on foreign grid- irons, the price of the activities card has raised. So far well over four hundred have signed up for the ticket this year. Fossil Display Draws Praise From Former Zoo Director C. C. LaRue and Miss Grace Cronk received letters from Roger Conant, former Edu- cational Director of the Toledo Zoological Society, at the close of last year thanking and compli- menting the biology students for their work done recently in arranging a display of plant fossils there. Biology students who partici- pated in the work were Richard Shumaker, Bob Mattlin, Herbert Bernard, John Rober, Gordon Hopkins, Franklin Shore, Lucille I Kapella, and Betty Dalzell. NEW FALL TERM BRINGS CHANGES IN WOODWARD'S TEACHING STAFF Dave McMurray, Grace Lawton, L. J. Robie Are New Faculty Membersg 3 Teachers Leave, Woodrich Teaches History Many changes noted in the Woodward faculty this year occur chiefly in the English and sports departments. There will still be sixty-eight teachers, as three instructors were acquired while the same number left. PILOTS SHIP AGAIN I A Having previously taught English III, IV, V, and VI, Miss 'cRozella Woodrich has chang d CAPTAIN C. L3RUE from the English section to the social science division and is now teaching first year history and community life. Among the new instructors is Miss Grace Lawton, formerly of Nathan Hale school, who will spend her efforts on English I and II in place of Miss Genevieve Kelly who has gone to DeVilbiss. David McMurray, graduate of Ypsilanti university and former coach of football at Tiffin Junior Order, is also teaching first year English, J. Robie of Titusville, Pa., is heading courses in Polish ! offered first, second, sixth, sev- C- C' LaRue lenth and eighth periods. Principal C. C. LaRue has launched his ship for the seventh consecutive cruise. In fair and foul weather he will guide Wood- wood safely past all shoals. May he have smooth sailing. Hi-Y Clubs Send 7 Students To Michigan Training Camp Ted Nichpor and William Loerke, presidents of the senior and junior Hi-Y respectively, were among the seven Wood- ward delegates who attended the Hi-Y training period at Camp Storer during the summer. Other Woodward students at the camp were Lowell Weaner, Walter Schulisch, Arthur Sievert ,Lewis Beebe, and Gale Weaner. This was the largest Wood- ward delegation to attend Hi-Y camp since 1930. THESE STUDENTS GIVE YOU YOUR. TATTLER Ed. Note: Charlotte Essick, club editor, and Sylvia Worshtil were absent when the picture was taken. Louis U. Bruyere and Roland Bevan are those of our former faculty who have also left Wood- ward. Art Smith is coaching varsity football with Mr. McMurray and Homer Hanham as his assistants while Mr. Hanham will be in charge of basketball this year. Extra Activities Director Planning An All-Club Dance H. Van Gorder, director of extra activities, is discussing plans for a dance sponsored by all the clubs that find the idea for such an affair acceptable. The purpose of this event, for which all organizations entering will have to work with equal interest, is to bring in sufficient funds for all the societies to pay for their Saga pictures. Any extra money earned, will probably be evenly distributed among the clubs. Further information about the dance, which will most likely be held during the Hrst semester, will be published in a later edition of the Tattler. Cabinet Members Meet At Home Of Curtis For Roast Cabinet members of the Inter- national club will gather at the home of Miss Adrienne Curtis, adviser of these two organiza- tions, for a roast Monday, Sep- tember 16, from 3:30 to 6:30 p.m. The purpose of the affair, which is held each year, is to plan events for the coming year. Any member of either associ- ation is welcome to attend. THE WOODWARD TATTLER C THE woonwlmi TATTLER I of Woodward High School for lc per copy.

Hookey---Thumbs Down N THE first day of school, Principal LaRue announced that the amount of funds Woodward would receive from the Board of Education would depend on the attendance of each pupil. Every year more is done to make school life more pleasant for us. We sit back and enjoy movie shows and educational pro- grams. Those students hard up for cash are given the opportunity of working in the building. Clubs and organizations offer an outlet for the talents and social inclina- tions of their members. As for homework, that student bugbear, we're getting off easy. Years ago, students really had to work. Today well-planned class-room dis- cussions led by the modern instructor, while imparting knowledge, require less effort on the part of the student. Not so many years from now, most of us will be through school and working. Very few people will go out of their way to make things easier and pleasant for us. School days are precious. Attend regu- larly and get the most out of every one. Another Language HIS year six languages are being taught at Woodward. The newcomer is Polish which has been added to the curriculum through the efforts of Polish organizations in the fourth ward. To speak and understand one's native tongue well is a beautiful thing. Aside from national pride, it is also a profitable invest- ment. An employee able to deal with non- English speaking clients is considered a valuable asset to any firm. Although Polish is not so widely used as the commercial languages, students who have elected this subject have chosen wisely. It's In The Tattler ID WOODWARD win at the last game?

A lovely, reckless girl, Clarice, and her unscruplous brother Ever- ardo involve him in murderous quarrels and far journeys. He returns only to be thrown into prison but in the end gains fortune and happiness. Columbus, as a boy, has a minor role to play in this exciting story by Anne D. Kyle. Lighting The Torch is a vivid histori- cal romance which not only relates the experiences of Stephen LeRoue, a French boy, but also is replete with descriptive word pictures describing the peasants' re- volt against tyrannical rule, and also bands of unpaid soldiers looting the country. These and many other interesting books are available in the school library. Everyday Etiquette Now that school is once again in session and everyone is dusting off his books, pen- cils, etc., perhaps it would be well to ren- ovate a few good old Emily Posts. For example. 1 Quiet halls and classrooms are essential to good work. Think of the fellow who wants to study. 2 The cafeteria is made to eat in. A dirty cafeteria is not appetizing. 3 Courtesy and respect to your school demands that you use the waste-baskets. 4 Our present lawn is beautiful and Well kept. Keep it so! 5 Auditorium programs are for your en- joyment. If they can't be heard, they aren't enjoyed. THE WOODWARD TATTLER 82 CANDIDATES OUT FOR RESERVE TEAM L. J. Robie, Polish Teacher, Assists Coach Clark With Duties Coach L. C. Clark is working with eighty-two boys who were out for the first practice session of the lightweight football squad on Thursday of last week. Of this number forty-eight are fresh- men, twenty-nine, sophomores, and the junior class is represent- ed by five candidates. N o equipment was distributed until the first of this week when the weeding-out process began. Only nine of this squad had re- ported at last year's spring prac- tice so an almost entirely new team' will have to be developed, especially as last year's squad has moved up to the varsity. L.J. Robie, the new Polish lan- guage teacher, will assist in coaching the team for the follow- ing schedule: Date Opponent Field Oct. 4 Central Here Oct. 11 Scott Here Oct. 18 Libbey There Oct. 25 DeVilbiss There Nov. 1 Waite Here ,, ,X 4 Vince Kelly, captain of last year's football team, has decided to attend South Carolina this year. Don McCallister, former Waite coach, takes over the head coaching duties at this southern institution. Oscar Sear, sophomore guard candidate for the football team was the unfortunate one to re- ceive the first injury of the year. He suffered a broken wrist last Friday in a scrimmage and will remain on the sidelines for some time. Tony Annello injured a knee Wednesday, but the injury is not serious. Dr. H.B. Lahnert, an interne in Flower Hospital, will take over one of the duties which were left vacant when Roland Bevan left. He will serve as team phy- sician during the games played in the city. Dr. Lahnert is a Uni- versity of Michigan graduate and is practicing in the neighborhood of Woodward. Athletic Director Engages Daughter As His Secretary C.M. Meek, athletic director, in looking for a secretary to assist with his athletic duties found that it was unnecessary to go out- side of the family. His own daughter, Mrs. D. C. Oberle, has graciously offered her services for a few weeks. In previous years, Mr. Meek used students from the study halls to assist him. GYMS ORGANIZE ' !BEARS CLASH WITH FORT WAYNE YEAEQROURAML TOMORROW ON HOME GRIDIRON Boys To Obtain Pass And Tap Instruction As Girls Woodward's four gym teach- ers, Miss Stella Cornwell, Miss Catherine McClure, Art Smith, and Homer Hanham have sharp- ened their pencils and assigned lockers to all classes.

Girl gymnasts begin the year with soccer for freshmen and sophomores while juniors and seniors, have a choice of soccer, hockey, or archery. Their teach- ers are trying to optain space in Wilson Park to erect equipment for girls' activities. Boys will start pass and tap football, the freshmen and sophomores first taking up the skills of the various branches of the game. Other sports throughout the whole year will be basketball, soccer, soft-ball, track and field events, and many more. Of course there will be intra- murals taking up these and more under the eyes of the gym teach- ers. Next semester along with basketball there will be varsity teams in golf u nder Howard Phipps, tennis coached by Frank Duvendack, and a track team will be under the charge of Art Smith.

COACH SMITH COMMEN TS ON GREEN TEAM 3 Editor's Note-Coach Art Smith explains difficulty of working with green play- ers but praises their fine spirit. Another football season has arrived, and with it comes a new coaching staff and a swarm of new lads who are out to carry on for Woodward from the football standpoint. We are confronted with avery serious problem this year, being by having only three seasoned veterans and two subs from the team of 1934. It is a very slow process working with such a green team, and after the first week, things didn't look so bright, but the boys were all back again on Monday and now that the week is drawing to a close things are beginning to take on a bright er hue. When we are on the offensive this year, you are going to see a much different type of play than has been used in the past. Come out and look it over in the games that are to come. As I stated above, the outlook is none too bright as it appears on paper, but that is not bother- ing the players or the coaching staff because we know that with plenty of hard work and good spirit anything can be accom- plished. With this feeling we are working hard every afternoon and are hoping to win your support and confidence by pre- senting a good hard going-high spirited football team for Wood- ward. 'Root and Dawson, guards, and Ace Keller will handle the cen- ter position. Tne backfield will consist of Schoonmaker at quar- ter, Gross and Whiting at half- Ebacks, and Joe Hiltman at full- back. Other linemen who will prob- ably see action during the game are Stewart, Greenwood, and Michowski, tackles, Stoykoff and Fielder, guards, Richardson, cen- ter, and Arvay, an end. Anello, lPrzymierski, Pelczarski, Bishop, and Hoskins are possible back- lield substitutions. The schedule ffor the 1935-36 season follows: Sept. 14 ........ Fort Wayne ....

C. LaRue when asked his opinion on dictators. There is nothing better for immediate action. Power- ful and economical, they speedily accomplish what they set out to do. Principal LaRue, a conformed Studebaker owner, has just pur- chased a Dictator Planar Sedan. A picture of Mr. LaRue seated in his brand-new, shiny Dictator may be found in the August issue of Studebaker News. Woodshop And Art Classes Make Decorative Screens Two screens will be made by students of S. B. Crouse's wood- shop and decorated by students from Miss June Anderson's third year art class for the decoration of the club room. The screen designs will be mod- ern to conform with the mural de- signs ofthe advanced art class. The entire third year class will submit designs but only four of these, chosen by a committee, will be transferred to the screens. Club Room Decorated By Fourth Year Art Students Under the supervision of Miss June Anderson, the advanced fourth year students will deco- rate the new club room. Figures, symbolic of the activities of every club in Woodward in the form of a mural, will be painted on the border of the walls.

VAN GORDER HEADS SCHOOL ACTIVITIES Sheline Junior, Senior Dean, Duvendack Advises The Council Henry Van Gorder has been appointed director of the extra curricular activities replacing Raymond Sheline. Mr. Van Gord- er stated that he would appreci- ate having the clubs arrange with him ahead of time for the use of the auditorium and gymnasium and to see him only during con- ference hour or before or after school. Mr. Sheline, recently appoint- ed dean of junior and senior boys and co-adviser with Miss Amy Miller of the junior and senior classes, when asked what he thought of his new appointment replied, It's very interesting, but there will be some difficulty in sifting the grain from the chaff in the line of excuses. Frank Duvendack, co-adviser of the Junior Hi-Y last year with Howard Phipps, and Mrs. Schu- ler are advisers of the Student Council. Mr. Duvendack is re- placing Mr. Van Gorder.

Thus sing our poor pedagogues since fresh- men have come prevalent. C .C. LaRue tells a sad tale to the Tattler gossip seeker. Each year, during the freshman plague, I have gotten one gray hair every time I see one. The freshies have been getting smaller and dumber until this year's crop is minute in size and infinitesimal in knowledge. A suggestion has been made to strike for bigger and better fresh. men. S. B. Crouse says, I eat my dish of Wheaties every mornin g, but after raving at a freshie, my energy oozes out thru every pore, and even Wheaties can't keep my fires hot. C. Meek rhymed, Juniors are bad, seniors are worse, but I keep away from freshmen for safety first. Como los demasf' replied Miss Anne Wetterman when asked how she felt. Which was too much for ye Tattler gossip seeker.

Pie A La Mode And Coffee Part Of Modern Meeting If all teachers' meetings were made as attractive as the one which was supervised by Miss Grace Cronk, Miss Mary Boyles, and Mrs. O'Brien on Wednesday afternoon, the dear pedagogues would have, to use an old phrase, nothing to kick about. The meeting, which was at- tended by city high school biolo- gy teachers, was a delightful affair. Room 312 had undergone a transformation which left it looking anything but a classroom. It was decorated with flowers, leaves, and bridge tables. Coffee was made in that very room and served with apple pie a la mode.

The bottle slipped from his fingers and crashed to the floor, For a moment he stood watching the jet- black fluid spread farther and farther. One wondered whether he would uncon- cernedly continue on his way or notify the janitor. He did neither. Borrowing a cloth from a near-by teacher, he got down on his hands and knees and wiped away every trace of ink. The boy is Edwin Rodeheffer 13, a stu- dent at Lagrange school last year. Woodward welcomes students posses- sing a strong sense of responsibility. Stand Up And Cheer OW many of us know the thoughts of the varsity men as they first appear on the gridiron? Football players sense the reaction of the crowd just as actors feel the response of an audience. The simplest way to let them know that we are with them in spirit is to rise when they trot out on the field. Certainly they deserve our whole-hearted support. By C. C. LaRue Once again we have emerged from the excitement and turmoil inci- dent to the opening of school and are ready to do some real work. Many events will transpire this year to claim our attention. The situation is more tense now than at any time since 1914, Russia, China, and Japan are never far from a difiicult situation, here at home we are still in doubt about the ultimate success of New Deal policies, and we are intensely interested in our govern- mentis spending four and one half billions of dollars to eradicate unemployment. Familiar- izing ourselves with these affairs is a part of our education. . There was a time and not so long ago when a student withdrew from the everyday world of books. This is no longer possible. When a pupil graduates from high school, he is supposed to be proficient not only in the studies he has pursued but to have kept abreast of world events. Therefore to our regular school work must be added the time for daily papers, good magazines, and other sources of world news. We should be intelligent upon everything that is happening in our city, nation, and world. We should try to sift the truth from news that might be propaganda. Look with suspicion upon wholesale criticism of our accepted customs and laws. Remember that in spite of defects a democracy such as ours is by far the form of government thus far devised. Remember too that you are living in the most liberal country in the world and in spite of temporary financial ills it is still the land of greatest opportunity. Your job this coming year is to be a good student and to learn to be a good citizen.

If we clip things out of other papers, we are too lazy to write ourselves. If We stick to the job all day, we ought to be out hunting news. If we don't print contributions, we don't know genius, and, If we make a change in the other fellow's write-up, we are too critical. If we don't we are asleep.

THE WOODWARD TATTLER POLAR BEARS HELD TO SCORELESS TIE Light Woodward Gridders Keep Hoosiers On Defensive A husky hoosier team, out- weighing the home boys consid- erably, were kept on the run to defend their goal last Saturday but managed to hold the Bears to a no-score game. The Hiltman- Tschogl pass combination failed to click, but several sizable gains were made with lateral passes. Woodward, in much-too-hot- for-football weather, received the first kickoff and immediately set the stands howling for a talley with a long march over half the length of the field where they finally lost the ball on downs on Fort Wayne's one yard line. Four attemots were made from the three but the light backfield lacked the power to penetrate the opponent's line. The visitors played most of the game on defense, making only one threat at scoring when the fullback missed a field goal from the twenty yard zone in the third quarter. Hiltman attempted two field goals in the fourth period for Woodward but they were short of the big H. Big Boyi' Borough did much to discourage the opposing line while Schoonmaker showed some flashy running. The blocking at times was quite poor and many of the passes were too hurried to be effective. Never-the-less the possibilities of the lateral were demonstrated and will probably be a big factor for the season. Rita Nooney Awarded Pass To Waite-Woodward Tussle Ticket to the Waite-Woodward game was awarded to Rita Noo- ney after drawing straws with Franklin Rydman and Edwin Szopie who had guessed the clos- est score to the Fort Wayne game. Since Woodward plays Cleve- land Central tomorrow at Cleve- land, there will be no blank for the game. Save your wits until the Waite game and see how close you can come to getting a ticket to the Scott-Woodward game. Four Woodward Teachers Plan To Hear Coach Speak On Monday, September 23, George fPottsyJ Clark, who is the coach of the Detroit-Lions pro- fessional football team, is going to be the speaker at a Luncheon of the Round Table Club. Art Smith, Homer Hanham, Clyde Meek, and L. C. Clark have re- ceived invitations to hear him. Pottsy is going to bring sev- eral of the players of the team and at least one hundred men are expected at the meeting Monday noon. Mr. Clark is one of the outstanding personalities in athletics today. ' r STELLA CORNWELL TEACHES LEADERS McCLure To Have Class Next Semester, 28 Girls Have Joined Supervision of the girls' lead- ers class for the first semester will be handled by Miss Stella Cornwell. At the end of the peri- od Miss Catherine McClure will take over that duty. In the class this year are en- rolled seventeen seniors and eleven juniors. Senior names include Clara Bustow, Emily Braunschweiger, Betty Dalzell, Ellen Follas, Viola Jones, Ann King, Jean King, Kathryn Ma ska Annie Mueller, Mildred Nassar, Margaret O7 Connell, Dorothy Pink, Mary Pritchett, Dorothy Ragan, Dorothy Smith, Betty Jane Taylor, and Epthemia Vos- doganes.

Thus spoke Art Smith as the Polar Bear team got the ball in the oppo- nent's territory. Then Gus Schoonmaker, Bear quarterback, got the spirit and proceeded to make a nice gain. But Gus found that the heavy opponents were quite tough and was injured when he was brought down. He had the spirit though. Joe Blum, a graduate of Wood- ward and lately a student of Michigan State Normal, is taking advantage of his opptorunity to work with the coaches for twelve weeks. He is helping David McMurray with the line and will be active in intra-murals. This work will count for a year's ex- perience' with the Board of Education. . Trying to watch the close Fort Wayne game, Clyde Van Tassel found much opposition in Hal, his two year old boy, who per- sisted in walking a window ledge. He did it, too.

Group Takes Field Trip Miss Grace Cronk's fourth hour botany class went out on its first field trip Tuesday, Sept. 17, during second, third, and fourth hours for the purpose of securing wild flowers and weeds suitable for pressing. INTRA-CLUB SPORTS BEGIN NEXT WEEK Smith And Hanham Announce Events, Boys Meet Next Week Following the program of past years,Art Smith and Homer Han- ham, gym teachers, are inaugu- rating another series of intra- mural events. Last year there were sixteen teams entered in the two leagues. This year there will be as many as possible and How- ard Francis, the manager of the intra-murals, is holding a meet- ing next Monday of managers of teams wishing to enter one of the leagues. Any club or group of individ- uals wishing to enter a league for a year of' fun may do so by asking either Mr. Smith or Mr. Hanham about the particulars. At the end of the year ribbons will be awarded to each member of the teams winning the sepa- rate events. Letters will be awarded to the members of the championship team. The aim of the organization is to get every boy to participate in sports of some sort. Events for the year will be pass and tap football, volley ball, basket ball, handball, indoor baseball, horse shoes, basket ball foul shooting, basket ball goal shooting, and relays. Pass and tap contests will get under way the week after next. .1 .- Hiltman Out And In Confronted with the problem of showing a better spirit or quitting the t am J R di' H'lt b e , oe e 1 man y maintaining silence, chose the latter course and was requested to turn in his suit by Coach Art Smith. This occurred Tuesday morning in Princi- pal LaRue's office with Coaches Art Smith and Homer Hanham present.

If so, here is your chance. The Toledo Blade and the University of Toledo will present the second annual foot- ball clinic and demonstration Monday, September 23 at eight o'clock at Swayne Field. Coach Jim Nicholson plans to omit a few phases from last year's program and demonstrate more plays and types of offence and de- fence. A special feature will be a pagent showing the history ofthe game of football and the changes which have made the game what it is today. Making his first appearance of the season, John Kappel will lead the University of Toledo band and show some of his newest tricks. Chuck Wertz, backfield coach at the University, will describe the demonstrations through a , loud speaker. POLAR BEARS PLAY CLEVELAND SQUAD Revised Team May Be Sent Into Cleveland Game Saturday 1 Cleveland-Central will pit a strong, veteran team a g a in s t Coach Art Smith's Polar Bears when Woodward meets them on the Cleveland field tomorrow. As some of the boys didn't per- form as they should have in the Fort Wayne game last week, lCoaches Smith and Hanham have quite a problem in revising the lineup in order to make the team click. Quite a bit of spirit was shown in practice last week with candi- dates trying to win a starting position on the team and others working to retain their places. When this story went to press, an accurate line-up was not avail- able, but to all present appear- ances, Olin Boroughf, Florian Tschogl, and Ace Keller are the only ones who are sure of start- ing places, the rest of the posts are wide open to anyone who can fill them well. Last year's game with Cleve- land-Central found the B e a r s emerging with a 27-0 win, but this year with an inexperienced team, Coach Smith's gridders might find it tough going against this heavier and more experi- enced foe. Pupils Applause To Select New Cheerleaders Monday Woodward's new cheerleaders will be selected at a mass meeting Monday with Miss Hannah Shaw, Miss Eleanor Murphy, A. R. Bitter, Frank Duvendack, Mrs. Schuler, Miss Dorothy Warner, and Howard Phipps, as judges who will determine the winners by the amount of applause they receive. Gale Weaner is master of ceremonies.

ROMAN STALKA IS NEW JUNIOR HERE .. Polish Student Is In America Two Months, Likes Woodward New sounds, strange surround- ings, uncertainty, and thrilling atmosphere can be used in de- scribing the sensations felt by Roman Stalka, Woodward's new junior student. Coming to the United States just two months ago, Roman was veritably a stranger in a strange land---saved from complete ignorance of our language by his ability to learn quickly. The methods of teaching and the curriculum of Woodward are quite the opposite from the modes of teaching in his country, for at the private school he was cohmpelled to take subjects. No choice was permitted. Here at school Roman is studying alge- bra, machine-shop, English, and Polish. Mr. Robie, Polish teacher, is instructing him in English. As his ambition, the student chooses engineering, his chief interest is music---the violin his favorite instrument. An interesting character, a will- ing conversationalist, Roman Stalka ended the interview by saying in English--- I am glad to be interviewed. Twenty-Nine Pupils Study I Elements Of Newswriting Twenty-nine students have en- rolled in the seventh hour begin- ners, newswriting class.

How many of us are acquainted with the preamble to the United States' Constitution? This para- graph embodies the ideas and ideals of our ancestors. Do we of today realize to the fullest extent its import? j With Tuesday, September 17, marking the 148 anniversary of the constitution it is well to give serious thought to the changes that have been and will be made in this manuscript. Though there should be modifications to meet changing needs, let it be remem- bered that after standing the test of a century and a half of ever shifting government the funda- mental thoughts expressed in the constitution are undoubtedly sound and stable.

It is the aim of all home economics teachers to enrich curriculum by adding all inter- ests that an possibly be con- nected witch Home Economics, stated Miss Hazelton. l HHATS OFF! THE BAND IS PASSING BY! I Students, fortunate enough to be on the South side of the build- ing, pricked up their ears and unconsciously sniffed the air first hour last Wednesday. A sound not unlike the distant roll of thunder reached their tensed or- gans of hearing, but the clear sky did not warrant such an as- sumption. Ah, there it is again! The rum- bling of the drums! the band is making its first appearance on the field. A few heads bobbed up and down on the upper floors. Up because of curiosity, down because---well you know these teachers. They're lined up! The snare' drum begins with the bass keep- ing strict time. The cornets and clarinets suddenly burst forth with the melody of a stirring march while French horns, saxo- phones, and oboes lend it melo-! dious accompaniment. The students begin tapping time with the nearest thing handy, usually the feet, until fi- nally our most august propound- ers of knowledge are carried away by the superb rendition of a familiar air. But who and what are origi- nating those piccolo-like trim- mings? Closer examination re- veals a rather long flute, perpen- dicular to which is a slightly longer boy. Raymond Sheline is the name, Yessir, he's the son of our popular physics teacher. But look! there's the chip off another professorial block, Everett Lords is still puffing on the cornet. Saturday night---student sec- tions packed with masses of noisy, carefree humanity. The rumbling of the drums, and the color guards and trumpets announce the advent of the band into the brightly illumed field. There they come, legs swinging in unison, up to the Woodward section. The students rise and bellow out the Woodward Field Song. That's what awaits those who attend the game.

They wonder what might happen if suddenly they would completely ignore their respective duties and offices. Who would fill their shoes? How indespensable are we? f Today's leaders in class and club activ- ities, publications and other school pro- jects, will be forgotten tomorrow. New re- cruits, equally capable, are eagerly wait- ing to take charge, some to improve upon their predecessors. In athletics, the wise player realizes that the team as a whole is more important than he. He will consider himself just a cog in the machinery, replaced without difficulty, if necessary. Time spent in school is comparatively short. To be entrusted with an office or position during that time is a privilege. To execute that office ably and amiably while one has it is one's duty. Support The Shekel Shuffle OR THE first time in history, Woodward clubs have combined their efforts to give a dance. On the evening of October 4, they will present the Shekel Shufflel' for the student body. Fine results can be expected from the committees. Headed by capable club advi- sers, they have contributed valuable time and energy toward making this first even- ing affair a gala event. In past years, clubs have found it diiii- cult to pay for their Saga picture. This year, the shekels which are expected to roll in from this all-club dance will provide every club with a cut. Support your clubs in this worthy cause. Attend the Shekel Shuffle. The First Real Test TOMORROW our football team has the toughest assignment of the entire season, namely, that of conquering the Indians. The fact that the game will be fought on Waite's gridiron under lights gives the Indians a slight advantage, so that if the Polar Bears ever played foot- ball it will have to be now. In the past two games we have seen the sturdy spirit and fine mettle of the team, tomorrow it will be tested to the extreme. Last week they defeated a first class eleven with practically no Woodwardites to cheer themg tomorrow night they'll need whole sections of loyal Woodward rooters waving the Blue and White colors and hoarsely cheering them on to gains and touchdowns. Let's give them a hand! BE AT THE GAME!

TEACHERS' TRAVELS I Sixty-seven days aboard a freighter, cruis- ing across the Atlantic ocean and through the Mediterranean seas. Adventure and thrills aplenty. A delightful way to spend a vacation according to Miss Rozella Wo od- rich, sophomore history teacher. On her inland voyages the traveler was particularly interested in the mosques with towering pillars viewed at Istanbul Turkey. Salonika, Greece,offered ancient books with wooden covers. A priest showed these vol- umes to Miss Woodrich, telling her that they have been preserved for many cen- turies. Dark skinned natives wearing bright or- ange burnous fhead-dressl presented a striking picture to the Voyager during the time spent in Syria. Roman roads built by the ancients are still in use here. Ethereal moonlight enhances the beauty of Athens, making it simply breath-taking, although when seen in the sunset it is equally as beautiful. The color effects are beyond description stated the informant. Included in the itinerary of the adven- turess were the islands of Malta and Cyprus and Casa Blanca in French Morocco.

The Bear's oupcnents gained their point early in the second quarter on a sustained march from the Woodward 30 yard line with Williams plunging from the six yard line for the tally. Clark's attempt at the line for the extra point failed. Olen Boroughf blocked quar- terback William's punt on Cen- tral's fifteen yard line. Orville Swantek tossed a pass which bounced off Paul Brooks into the hands of Gus Schoonmaker for a touchdown. A perfect place kick by Swantek put the Polar Bears in the lead that proved to be the winning margin. Ed Pelczarski, Don Whiting, and Gus Schoonmaker stood out in the Bear backfield while Bill Wheaton, Bob Root, Olen Bor- oughf, and Florian Tschogl were outstanding in the line. Orville Swantek's punts which he kept placing outside around the oppo- nent's ten yard line played an important part in the victory. Williams, Clark, and McGinnis in the backfield and Oliver in the line were towers of strength for the opponents. Lessons In Score Guessing Given To Woodward Pupils Hear Ye. Hear Ye.

BEARS MEET WAITE IN FIRST CITY GAME Polar Bears Depend On Few Remaining Veterans To Gain Win Again the time draws near when the Polar Bears from Wood- ward invade the soil of the Waite Indians with the determination to return with the Redskins' scalp. The clash finds Woodward's lineup the same with the possi- ble exception of the fullback po- sition which Hiltman or Pelzar- lski will fill. The brunt of the attack and defense rests on the shoulders of Olen Boro ughf, Florian Tschogl, and Ace Keller on the line and Gus Schoonmak- er, Red Hiltman, and Orville Swantek in the backfield. Red Snider is the principal Waite threat aided by Al Price, Willis Gabriel, and Bill McCallis- ter, the quarterback who scored Waite's touchdown in its ,last game.

Behind closed doors comes the sound of busy feet and chattering voices. Now and then a worker slips out only to return laden with strangely-shaped bundles. Occupants of classrooms op- posite the gym observe with interest the antics of this industrious crew .climbing to precarious heights on towering ladders with amazing agility. The commotion continues until late this afternoon. Then, after onelast, critical survey, the be-smudged and tired toilers Wend their way homeward. Silence reigns supreme, but only for a few hours. It is 8:00 P.M. Woodward is ablaze with shining faces. Happy voices mingle delightfully with soft strains of music. The doors of the gym are thrown open wide revealing breath-taking trans- formations. A wave of the wand and a bleak, empty room has una- ,Ebecome a sophisticated fairyland.

Marie Ersig I Ml' ty f Wil 5 ' A ' ' I I Iugh Montgomery Let's Sing Together HE FIRST mass meeting of the year was held last Friday attended by one of the most spirited groups of young people ever gathered together in the audi- torium. Responding wholeheartedly to the cheerleaders and receiving speakers enthu- siastically, they seemed to welcome and enjoy moments when they could give vent to their emotions. During the course of the program, popu- lar college field songs were rendered on the stage. Out in the audience, tapping feet be- gan to keep time. Students found it difficult to keep from humming. As the stage pro- gram continued, a repressed feeling surged over the listeners. The enthusiasm with which the meeting began was almost lost. The same songs, flashed on a screen and sung by everyone' would have produced a different feeling. Pep meetings are intended to arouse the interest of the student body. Participation of the audience is one way to retain that interest through-out the meeting. Get In The Running NECESSARY element to student gov- ernment is the student council. This body, in assuming the task of supervising student conduct, produces the difference between elementary pupils and those in high school. Elections will soon be held for these positions. Doubtless, as in former years, those who are fit for the office often do not contest, hence the voters have little to se- lect from for their ruling body. This one fact is the reason that many of the student body will not co-operate with the council. If you think that you are fit for office or that one of your friends is deserving, have yourself or him nominated. A wide field of selection will produce executives who will have the full support of their class. s For A Safer Student Section QQ HIS IS positively the last time I'll sit in the student section! vowed an irate football fan at the Waite game last Satur- day.

You can't buy loyalty they say, I bought it though this very day, You canit buy friendship, firm and true. I bought sincerest friendship too, And truth and kindliness I got, And happiness, Oh, such a lot! So many joyous hours to be, Were saved with that commodity. I bought a life of simple faith, And love that will be mine till death, And two brown eyes that I could see Would not be long in knowing me. I bought protection.

Vivid scenes are brought to the reader's mind with swiftly moving word pictures painted by Cherry Keaton in his new story The Animals Came to Drinki' Mr. Keaton has studied wild animal life in Great Britian, India, Borneo, America, Canada, and all parts of Africa for the past forty years---he is well aquainted with the haunts and habits of every jungle creature des- cribed in his story. The animals in the tale seem to be almost human with their many trials against ene- mies and the elements. A raging prairie fire is described vividly---relating the actions and twhat seem to bel thoughts of the jungle creatures when trapped by this enemy. Locusts swarming down on civilization cause untold suffering and damage---how these animals cope with just such a plague is set down on this little volume. Almost every story has a heroine and a villian---the author has chosen a dainty and delicate gazelle or an impalla for the hero- ine, while a sinister crocodile provides the villainy--- Every student interested in animals will enjoy this jungle romance and actual photographs taken by the author.

The Cubs are out to vanquish the Centralites. L. C. Clarke, head lightweight coach, in an attempt to give all candidates a chance in the games, as yet has not chosen his regular lineup. The following list includes all Cub gridders in uniform: Robert Birr, Clement Cybulski, Frank DuPre, Ted Gosciniak, William Haffelder, Ray Keesecker, Paul McKinney, Dan Novak, Ted Novak, Leonard Snyder, Richard Turrittin, Thad Wilson, Joe Yancy, Nassiflfiardwell, James Childers, Chester Walczak, Ted Klonowski, and Edward Krzy- minski, freshman.

Bears Lose First City Tilt To City Champion Gridders Woodwardls gridders suffered their first inter-city defeat from the city champion Waite football team by a 34-0 score. Captain Red Snider scored four touchdowns from inside the Polar Bear 5 yard line. Al Price scored the other on a 33 yard off tackle play. Snider and Younkin made four of five place kicks for the remaining tallies. Florian Tschogl, Bear captain, Ace Keller and Noel Dawson played fine games in the Wood- ward line while Gus Shoonmaker and Lennie Lamont were out- standing in the back field. Next week the Bears tackle the Scott team on the opponent's field in their second inter-city struggle. Woodward's Football Team Scrimmages At B.G. College A severe test was given the Woodward football team when they journeyed to Bowling Green Wednesday afternoon to scrim- mage the B. G. College Varsity. 16 TEAMS PLAYING IN INTRA-MURALS Two Leagues Play Fifty-Six Pass And Tap Games This Season Having already played sixteen games in the pass and tap intra- murals, the two leagues of eight teams each are well started on the 1935-36 program. In all, there will be fifty-six pass ad tap games, each league playing eight a week. At the end of the series, a play-off of the league winners will be held to determine the championship. All of the games begin promptly at 2:45 p.m. and are held in Wilson Park. Teams entered in the National league are the Art Klan, Peiuper club, Pencil Pushers, Aviation society. Machine Shop, Latin club, the Printers, and the Quill and,Dagger. The American league is made up of the Renaissance team, the Ramblers, Junior Hi-Y, Polish Knights, General Shop, Senior Hi-Y, Polish Literary so- ciety, and the All Stars. A schedule is kept in the gym office of the games in which the Auto Mechanics will try to de- fend its last year's championship. The gym teachers are in charge of this program. Every Monday the managers meet to plan the program and select officials for the coming week, with Howard Francis as president ofthe group. Tattler Students Attend Press Association Meeting The first meeting of the Toledo High School Press association was held Wednesday, October 2, at DeVilbiss. Students from the Tattler of- fice who were present were Rita Loerke, Norma Jean Allen, Robert Kieter, Julia Bennett, Virginia Ignatowicz, Doris Shortt, Martha Murzynski, and Nathan Schwartz. SCOTT, WOODWARD MAKE SECOND ATTEMPT FOR INTER-CITY VICTORY Coach Art Smith Plans To Use Pelczarski, Dawson, Stack, and Marok In Revised Lineup For Second City Encounter i111-i-1 Remembering last year's defeat at the hands of Scott, Wood- ward Polar Bears enter Scott stadium tomorrow afternoon to avenge this setback. The Collingwcod avenue boys are as lacking in experience as Art Smith's team which makes them more of an even match though Scott has the edge in weight. Scott has a strong line which offers a good defense against line plays but which is offset by its poor defense on an aerial attack andglack of a good punter. Richards SOCCER TILT ENDS IN SCORELESS TIE A furiously fought exhibition soccer game between the junior and senior girl leaders Monday, conference hour, ended in a score- less tie. All freshmen girls were invited to view the game. Those who played on the jun- ior team were Beatrice Carter, Esther Gust, Anna Mary Ried, Norma Jenn Allen, Florence Nas- ser, Clyda Lee Ridenour, Eleanor J acksy, Theola Rodefer' Mildred Nassar, and Virginia Rayman. The senior team was composed of Betty Dalzell, Ann King, Emily Braunschwieger, Mary, Pecksa, Edna Mae Kelly,Dorothy Pink, Dorothy Smith, Ephthemia Vosdoganes, Dorothy Regan, Viola Jones, Margaret O'Connell, Annie Mueller, and Mary Prit- chett. Referees for the first half were Eileen Vizneau and Mary Prit- chettg for the second half, Anna Mary Ried and Emily Braunsch- wieger. . Grad Holds T. U.

While the first and second teams made the trip, the third and Schuette, Scott backs, are the principal threats for the Maroons. If the Bears fail to g ai n through the line, they can fall back on their passing attack which proved effective when used against Waite. It is hoped that the Hiltman, Tschogl pass com- bination will cause much trouble to opposition secondary defense. Coach Smith has been working the boys hard this past week to bring the offense and defense nearer perfection for this annual tussle. Last year Scott defeated Wood- ward 14-7 , but the game was for- feited to Woodward because of an over-age player in Scott's lineup. Lineup Revised Stack and Pelczarski will work with Hiltman and Schoomaker in the backfield tomorrow while Dawson replaces Fielder at a guard position. Marok will per- form in the place of Brott at end who is out because of a broken finger received in a scrimmage before the Waite game. The remainder of the lineup will be the same as used before.

This took place at the Capitol theatre where the football squads of Woodward and Central were the guests of the management last Monday night. The team saw the current fea- tures, The Band Plays On and Blackstone, the magician. During his program Blackstone gave a salute to Olen Boroughf, Red Hiltman, and Old Man Schoon- maker. 1 THE WOODWARD TATTLER BAND WILL CHEER TEAM AT DAYTON Engineering Club To Sponsor Film, 1200 Expected To Attend Thanks to the Engineering society, Woodwardites will see The Cat's Paw starring Harold Lloyd, and the band will visit Dayton.

Obloza Wins Scott Ticket, Some Students Optimistic We hereby pay tribute to the small body of loyal Wood- wardites who favored Woodward to beat Waite and to the super- optimist machine shop teacher, P. O. Thomae, who picked our team to win, 43-0. Casimir Obloza and Thomas Goldie tied for the free ticket to the Scott tussle, and Obloza was chosen by picking his score from a hat. Among the ranks of the pessimists, Richard Durham sub- mitted a guess of 70-0 in favor of Waite. Win aticket to the DeVilbiss game by guessing the correct score to the Woodward-Scott game.

T. A. ESSAY Senior Boy Will Represent Woodward In P. T. A. Contest Robert Sarvis, senior, received the award of three dollars and fifty cents from the Parent-Teach- er Association for submitting the following essay: Why My Mother and Father Should Join the Parent-Teacher Association. New educational aims and ideals have brought with them the opportunity for parents to actively assist in the training of their children. Parent-teacher associ- ations have arisen to fill a very real need. What better way could be devised to acquaint parents with the persons who are responsible for the education of their children? A proper parent- teacher understanding of the mutual problem of rearing youngsters and young men and women will go far toward the educational ideal. Parents with this personal teacher-contact can better sympathize with the educators' problems and assist with moral and often practical support. When a parent shows enough interest in a child to participate actively in parent-teacher functions, the student receives a new incentive to continue his school work more enthusiastically. From the teacherts standpoint, parent contact will furnish a pupil background which will assist in his academic train- ing. Confidential talks between the two may bring to light individual differences of students which can be capitalized on by the teacher. Pupil likes and dislikes as well as speci l interests if known by the teacher will help mold the method of personal teaching. There is a purely practical side to this question also. A strong unified group of this sort, if ably led, may be able to procure additional material benefits for th s h l. e c oo So it can be easily seen that a parent- teacher organization, if properly sup- ported by both sides, will be of great value to the teacher, the pfrent, and the pupil. Each parent owes it to his child to show at least this type of inter- est toward the schooling which equips the future generation for adult life. This essay will be entered in the city wide contest in which the winner is to receive five dollars. Sheline, LaRue Select Boys For Excaliber Membership Seven junior boys have been selected by R. K.

War Again AR is imminent they tell us. We hear it in our classes, we read it in the newspapers, we can't help but hear it over the radio. We ask, why does war in East Africa or Europe concern us? There is no need to tell why, for we have all probably heard how the confiagration may spread and soon entail us. We are taught the supposedly true reasons for armed mass conflict between nations. With all our present education, how will we come out of the bombardment of prop- aganda that we may soon undergo? Land! Land! ITH THIS exultant cry, valiant Christ- opher Columbus and his hardy sea- men hailed the shores of America looming out of the mist. That was four hundred and forty--three years ago. Tomorrow, men, women, and children the world over will remember and admire the staunch courage and unmov- able faith of Columbus. Students of today encounter much the same obstacles as did the famous dis- coverer of America. Aims and purposes in life, once so enthusiastically conceived, are often thwarted by disapproving ship- mates. Hold fast to your convictions and be resolute. Sail on unswervingly through the mists of uncertainty, never halting until the land of your ideals is freached. Be a modern Columbus. P. T. A. Week TARTIN G Sunday, the 13th, and contin- uing through Saturday, the 19th, the Parent-Teacher Association sponsors a campaign for new members. Thousands of words expressing its multitudinous mer- its were written inthe recent essay con- test. The main value of this organization, however, is that it acts as a bridge between home and school life. On Wednesday of next week the first meeting of the Wood- ward Parent-Teacher Association will take place. Students, urge your parents to attend! 4-A ' ANCY THAT Dazzy Definitions Mr. LaRue ......,.... ........... ...... E v erybody's pal. A friend ,....,...... Someone who lends you his homework.

This And That Well, children, here comes an account of a trip through the dark and unknown alleys of Woodward---have you ever heard of them?--- neither have we, so here goes nothing. Whoops m'dear---what makes you double up like that?---oh, you lost a bet and were forced to eat a bag of delicious, honey-sweetened confetti at the Waite game---well we can't win all of the time---Hold your hat, a gust of wind has arisen on this nice, warm day---no it's only Betty Morgan heaving a sigh of re- lief on finally opening her locker--Suitcase Schulish, will you please step on these ants, they give me the creeps---but wait, did I hear them talking? oh, it's Clyde Loofborough and John Johnson ---what we need is a microscope ---this is the Ku-Ku hour signing off with the four musketeers---Louis Rabideau, Frank Scott, Albert Johnson, and Jack West singing our theme song, Every Morning at Eight Thirty ---so, my children may your nightmares be long and horrible. I INQUIRING REPORTER Students and friends attending the f'Shek- el Shuffle Friday night impressed the Inquiring Reporter in such a manner that this busy person raised the following question: What do you think of holding an all-club dance? Harriet Janiszewski, a freshman, re- marked, I think it's a grand idea---an all- club dance enables new students to get acquainted with upper classmenf' I believe, that if made an annual affair, the venture would prove very profitable as both a social and a financial enterprise. William F laum, sophomore. The idea of the clubs combining their efforts into one large evening affair is a good idea because it stimulates the interest of a larger number of people and creates a feeling of co-operation between clubs. Alice Frankowski, junior. I U I The 'Shekel Shuffle' was a lovely affair, and on the whole, a success. Having an all- club dance, I think, is an excellent way of solving the important problem of paying for club pictures in the Sagaf, Rozella Woodrich, History I. Floyd Lords, science teacher, sanctioned the idea with the following answer: A suc- cessful affair and I hope it will become an annual event. I believe that everyone en- joyed himself and would support future dances like this.', - I .lust Among Friends The enrollment of Vocational high school, 1138 students, is the largest in the history of the school.---Vocational Hi-Crier.

KISER EN TERTAINS BEARS TOMORROW Woodward To Use Passing Attack In Game At Dayton, Ohio Saturday, October 19, Wood- ward Polar Bears travel to Dayton, Ohio to meet the grid- ders of Dayton Kiser high school on their home field. The Panthers' line averages about 157 pounds and the back- field 151 as compared to Wood- ward's 160 pound line and 1401 pound backfield which makes the teams about even on weight, Dayton has only one veteran and five substitutes left from last year's team which puts the two teams on an equal as to experience, as a whole the teams are evenly matched and should provide a thrilling contest. Handicapped by injuries, Ki- ser's record for this year is two games lost and one a scoreless tie. Because of the lightness of their backfield, the Polar Bears must depend on their aerial at- tack if the opponent's line offers a stubborn resistance.. Coach Art Smith has been working this past week with the sophomore and junior gridders and has been planning to use them against Dayton tomorrow. His object is to give them play- ing experience and help to build- a team for next year. The probable lineups are: DAYTON WOODWARD POS. Tschogl .............,...,......... L.E ..............,......

Gus Schoonmaker and Ace Keller are suffering from sore which they injured in ankles the Scott game. Lennie Lamont still has his ribs bandaged. He cracked them in the Waite game. Although ordered not to play in the Scott game,Olen Boroughf played a fine game despite his injured leg. Coach Art Smith, assisted by Coaches Hanham and McMurray, caught one of Joe Hiltmanis punts which came near the right end of the bench during the Scott game. Gale Plush by injuring his knee in the Central tilt has the mis- fortune of being the first light- weight casualty. . THE WOODWARD TATTLER POLAR BEAR CUBS LOSE FIRST GAME Irish Intercept Pass, Make Steady March For 13-0 Win Opening their Inter-city Light- weight League season against Central, Woodward's reserves ended up on the short end of a 13-0 score. This game was the first regular tussle for both teams. The Bear Cubs held the Cen- tralites in check throughout the game except for the second quar- ter when Central made a sus- tained drive for their first tally, with an intercepted lateral pass accounting for their s e c o n d touchdown. Central failed to con- vert the second point after touch- down. The Cubs fought valiantly against a team which outweighed them many pounds per man. Though defeated, Woodward's backfield had four stellar per- formers in Ted Klonowski, Leo Banasiak, Ted Szelegowski, and Edwin Bialorucki. They were handicapped by a line which was weak both on offense and defense. Red Ervine was the main- spring of the Central machine. The Woodward team was also defeated in a practice game with the Whitmer eleven. German And Spanish Clubs In Charge Of Mass Meeting The German and Spanish clubs combined will have charge of the Woodward-DeVilbiss mass meet- ing Thursday, October 24. They will give a skit called School Days. Ruth Ann Devlin, N ymphador- ia Funke, and Miss Annie Wetter- man will have charge of the pro- gram. Polar Bears Suffer Defeat At Scott In Inter-City Tilt In their attempt to stop a ram- paging Scott team led by Kurtz, Woodward's team members con- sumed a goodly portion of their alloted peck of dirt and inciden- tally came out underneath an l8- 0 score last Saturday. Playing at its home field, Scott kept the ball in Woodward territory through- out, although two of the touch- downs were made by runs of over half the length of the field. Woodward, with its lightest backfield in its history averaging 139 pounds, was unable to gain through the line at all and made most of the yardage for six first downs with ashort pass attack. The opponents seemed to gain ground at will on off tackle plays. Throughout the contest, the Bears put up a scrappy fight but were unable to squelch the wild dashes of Richards and Kurtz. Scott made a tally in each ofthe first three quartersg but in each case the attempted place kick for the extra point failed. Tiny Anthony Anello saw action for the first time in this game but FOOTBALL ARE FUN ESPECIALLY IF WON Puzzle Of Article Is To Find Unauthored Verse's Lost Riming Football, being what it is, a combination of war in Ethiopia, murderin all degrees, and arson, is no subject for poetry. The coaches, always burning up, are the subjects of the arson. If you pay two bits and chance to see a lot of numbers from one to infin- ity on lots of boys who all are lame, chances are it's a football game. These numbers don't affect the score unless one becomes very fast, for if he takes the ball across the goal, it is a loss of six points to the other clan. Always there is one man, Schoonmaker in Wood. ward's case, who yells out num- bers 'n makes a face 'n grabs a ball 'n runs all over and maybe finds a four leaf clover after some- oixe slams him to the ground which, as all know, is where theyire round. Then there are two ones called ends and each of these boys some- times lends a bit of baseball and other sport in their adagio hereu- lean effort to catch a cowhide en- closed piece of air which seems to be never thrown just where Tschogl is at the same time so he canit run across that last line of lime. I read where foreigners would ne' ken of best eleven in the big ten. Maybe the meaning is somewhat hazy, but after all, the whole thing's crazy. Girls' After-School Sports Tournament To Begin Soon Girls' intra-mural games which are to start next week will begin with archery and soccer. The fol- lowing teams will compete in an elimination tournament for soc cer: Seniors, Jinx, Juniors, Go Getters, Vikings, Huskies, Cubs, Fasces, Blue Comets, All Stars, Zets, and Junior Friendship. The purpose of' the elimination type of tournament is to save time, for cold weather will soon prevent outdoor activities. For the archery tournament which will be held after school at some future date, each team will choose one representative. If a team should win first, second, third, or fourth place in any sport, each girl on that team who is woz king for a letter will receive points toward that goal. Zets Hold First Skate The first skating party of the school year, sponsored by the Zetalethean Literary society, will be held Friday, October 18, from 8 p.m. to 11 p.m. at the Coliseum. The cabinet is in charge of the 'skate with Emily Braun- didn't have a chance to do much. schweiger acting as chairman. CUBS COMMENT ON ACTIO-N-iXT SCOTT Scott Usher Discloses Plans To Confuse Fans Of Woodward Cub comment on the Scott game---It was reported by a Scott usher that the Woodward signs on the Scott stadium were painted by Scott students to confuse Woodward's fans---We trust that our new drum major, Dan Krzyzaniak, will strut with more dignity and natural grace than the former leader---Why must our band rush from the field before the final gun when the Maroon musicians marched up and down the field playing until the crowd left?---One of us sug- gested a 3510 fine for feeding the band members peanuts at foot- ball games---Inefliciency of the stadium guards was shown when about one hundred non-paying guests swarmed up into the sta- dium---Do the bands of the two competing schools have to play at the same time?---Could the cheer leaders use a greater vari- ety of yells?---Inability to under- stand the Scott leaders led to their cold reception by the Wood- ward cheering section. Robert Hall Wins Ticket To Woodward-DeVilbiss Tussle Robert Hallwon a free ducat to the DeVilbiss game by guessing the correct score of the Wood- ward-Scott tussle, 0-18. It seems that loyal Wood- wardites need lessons in this an- cient art of guessing scores. Thirty-two girls handed in the wrong scores, only 12 of them favoring Woodward. Ninety boys also guessed wrong, and 56 cf these were in Scott's favor. There were also four ties. Rest your tired brains until October 25, when, if you have recuperated sufficiently to choose a score for the DeVilbiss game you may get a ticket for the Lib- bey game. Sixteen Games Arranged For Intra-Mural Leagues Sixteen games are scheduled in the intra-mural league. Officials for the games will be chosen from the managers.

October 6 to 12 Set Aside As Fire Prevention Week The week October 6-12 has been set aside as fire prevention week. All over the country extra precautions are being taken, and drilling for rapid exit from public buildings is being done. In the fire drill held at Woodward Wednesday, October 8, it re- quired 2 minutes and 14 seconds to empty the building of its almost 2000 occupants. The results of the drills are sent to the state fire marshal. Tl-IE WOODWARD TATTLER Minute Interviews Future Happinessv---a song that could and might have a definite meaning to Marguerite Vergiels, sophomore composer of the selection, if she continues to write songs---is Woodward's new school song which was intro- duced recently by the Friendship girls. Point Place high sings Margueriteis song composed es- pecially for that school. Blue Eyes is another ditty that came from the store in this little miss' brain---hasn't taken the trouble to think seriously of making song writing her profession---has taken piano lessons---can make the ivories talk very melodic- ally---incidentally, prefers play- ing the piano to composing---in tends to write a lyric for the Junior Friendship Club. This diminutive person is full of pep ---- prefers blue, but rarely feels that way ---- loves to eat everything except spinach ---- is a great tennis fan ---- all in all, Marguerite Vergiels is a charm- ing personality.

TWO STUDENTS HEAR LECTURE ON CHINA 1Editor's note: This is a resume of the Open Forum lecture attended by Ruth Devlin and Frederick Holtfreterj A grey-haired New Yorker, John W. Phillipps, editor of the monthly magazine, China To- day, opened the Friday night forum by stating that Chinals fate lies entirely in the hands of its ever, must take an offensive rather than a defensive stand. He pointed out that United States took only a selfish interest China which is the one onl Red army. This group, how- in y remaining country that is open exploration by stronger na- tions, there is no reason for im- perialistic powers to take advan- tage of her inferiority such as most nations are doing, espe- cially Japan. Mr. Phillipps concluded by saying, Why should the world ermit Japan to invade China, d apparently ignore it, when Japan becomes so enraged at the fact that Mussolini is invading thiopia'?

A set or ofiicers was chosen which may or may not secure the full support of their class. Where was the other half of the class? Weren't they satisfied with the candidates? If not, there was no reason why they should not have nominated one of their nu mber. As upper-classmen they should realize the power held by their executives and how their future life will be influenced by the de- cisions rendered. Sophomore elections will be held in the near future. Every sophomore should vote, not only to display interest in govern ment, but also to produce a ruling body with the full co-operation of the class. Cultural Opportunities URING the school year 1933-34, ap- proximately thirteen educational as- semblies were sponsored by Woodward organizations. Last year there was a slight decline in both the variety and the number of these programs while this year none have been given to date. A varied and colorful parade of interest- ing speakers, glorious pageants, education- al films, and open forums may be brought before the student body if each club makes it a point to present one good program. Woodward has twenty-six clubs. How many educational assemblies will Wood- ward students be able to attend this year? Profits Put To Use REE from financial worries, the Tattler feels that it is investing its money wisely and well in sending twelve staff members to Columbus today. The benefits derived in attending discussions on various phases in newswriting with the ideas im- bibed in associating with fellow journalists make these expenditures very much worth while. Good Luck UN IOR and senior class officers and the student council have recently been se- lected by the student body. Cabinets with their committees are busy planning class activities, while the council is again resum- ing the diflicult task of student govern- ment. May they have a successful year with the full co-operation of their classmates! ........J0hn Piotrowski PRINCIPAL POINTS By C. C. LaRue We have a large number of pu- I I pils that are making the serious , , -r: mistake of over loading their sched- L ,., ules. The normal load of classes for V all pupils in all departments is four. p. ' , This leaves two periods that may I L be used for gymnasium, laboratory, or study. By taking this moderate number the pupil has time not only for his school Work but time to take part in the extra cur- ricular activities which are a really necessary part of his school life. Any thing over the normal number of classes cuts down the pu- pil's time for study in school and adds to his burden of home work. Common sense tells us that adding twenty percent to our load and cutting twenty percent from our time makes us about sixty percent efficient, a sixty percenter? is a failure. Space does not permit a long dicussion of the differing intelligences of pupils and the ability on the part of some to do more than others. Unfortunately it is not usually the pupil of extra ability that feels the need of taking extra work. In many cases the pupil who wants to carry more than he should is driven to it by what he thinks is necessity of keeping up with his class. Many times he is urged on by his parents for no other reason than this. For them, staying in school an extra year has a stigma attached to it. As a matter of fact it is the wise boy or girl, who falling behind his grade for some reason or other, is willing to take an extra year to do extra work. After graduation is too late to do this. The post graduate is no longer admitted to school. But one may come as long as he wishes provided he does not graduate. I In an ideal situation all thought of marks, promotions, and graduation should be kept in the remote background. The pupil should be encouraged to study and work for the cul- tivation of his mind. He should be required to work up to his capacity but he should never be overloaded.

I g Book Briefs Mary Chase, in her novel Mary Peters, shows her intimate understanding and sympathy for New England life. I 1 This new book will be enjoyed by seniors and faculty members especially. It is a tale of life on the Maine coast, covering a period of sixty years and dealing with a seafaring family, which has as its last member Mary Peters. For fifteen years the heroine of this in- triguing novel spends all of her time on the Elizabeth, her father's sailing vessel., Her travels through foreign waters are varied and thrilling, the author describes with unfailing vividness, foreign ports and strange sights at sea. Many old sea chant- ies are interspersed throughout the selec- tion, making it actually take on life. Within the experiences of Mary Peters after she permanently leaves the ship, one readily sees the changes that are brought about with the advent of world trade and summer visitors to a small sea-port town. This fiction novel is a new addition to the Woodward Library. 1 A New song QTo be sung to the tune of America the Beautifulnl O Woodward, lofty, strong, and free, Our hearts thy merits see, We who have come from everywhere, From lands across the sea. Thou claim'st a football team so fine, A stalwart eleven they, May they today acquire more fame To glorify thy name. O Woodward, lofty, free, and strong, Within thy spacious span, Thou givest knowledge, love, and song To every race and clan. May I forever try to be A worthy member thine, At work, at play, at every game Help Woodward truly shine. ---Miss Anne Wetterman, THE WOODWARD TA'I'I'LER whif- COMMENT IS GIVEN ON TEAM'S JOURNEY Woodward Football Squad Stays Over Night At Dayton Y.M.C.A.

American League Is Behind In Scheduled Pass And Tap After the second week of intra' mural competition, the Polish Knights are leading the pack in the National League with four wins and no defeats while the Art Klan and the Machine Shop are tied for the first position in the American division. Because of rain preventing them to play, the American League teams are a game behind their schedule but will make it up at the end of the pass and tap season. The standings are: National League Team W L Pct Polish Knights 4 0 1.000 Renaissance 3 1 .750 Sr. I-Ii-Y 3 1 . 750 Jr. Hi-Y 2 2 .750 All Stars 2 2 .500 Polish Literary 2 2 .500 Ramblers 0 4 .000 General Shop 0 4 .000 American League 3 0 Art Klan 1.000 Machine Shop 3 0 1.000 Printers 2 1 .666 Peiupers 1 2 .333 Pencil Pushers 1 2 .333 Latin club 1 2 .333 Aviation club 1 2 .333 Quill and Dagger 0 3 .000 212 GIRLS ENROLL IN INTRA-MURALS Fasces Club Tops With 23, Jinx Next With 20 Members Of the two hundred and twelve students enrolled in the fourteen teams comprising the intra-mur- als, the Fasces club with a total of twenty-three players has the largest squad. Gladys Dimke is the manager of this group. The twenty girls on the Jinx are managed by Mildred Raymer. Other teams, their number of players are Huskies, eighteen, Junior Friendship, seventeen, Cubs, fifteen, All Stars, Juniors, Seniors, and Vikings, fourteen, Polar Bears, thirteen, Woodward Tigers, twelve, and Blue Comets and Zets, eleven. An elimination tournament in soccer which started Monday, October 14, is the first sport that these pupils will undertake. After the completion of this tourna- ment, volley ball will be played. At this time new teams may be entered in the intra-murals. Any girl planning to work for a letter must join an intra-mural team. Students in the leaders' classes have charge of refereeing all of these after-school games, which are under the direction of Miss C. McClure and Miss S. Cornwell, gym instructors. Woodw aid Band Marches From Bus Station To Field Dan Krzyzaniak, Woodward's new drum major, led the mu- sicians to a truimph in the minds of the Dayton citizens last Saturday. People along the curb, the man at the hot-dog stand, and a policeman com- mented freely on the fine ap- pearance they made. Guy Sutphen and William Rohr, adviser ofthe Engineering society, which sponsored the trip, accompanied the band, and cheer leader Lawerence Macie- jewski was tal-:en along. They marched from the bus sta- tion along nine city blocks. Be- tween halves the bands paraded as usual, but this time only one group appeared on the field at a time making the music listen- able and improving the enter- tainment one hundred per cent. Boys' Gym Classes Learn Skills In Football, Soccer The fundamentals of soccer will be drilled on by freshmen boys after they have been taught the skills of football under the super- vision of instructors Art Smith and Homer Hanham. Sophomores are working on types of offensive football for- mations, next week these will be- gin drilling on various defensive tactics. Junior and Senior classes are competing in a pass and tap round robin tournament to determine the best team in upper class gym groups. L SCOTT BEATS CUBS IN INTER-CITY TILT Improved Woodward Squad Vanquished, Singer Breaks Leg Although they went on the field a much improved team, the Woodward lightweights suffered their second inter-city defeat with Scott emerging the victors by a 13-0 count. The Woodward squad had more polish offense and defense than in previous encounters. Edwin Bialrucki, halfback, was the mainspring of the Wood- ward team as he made most of the tackles of Scott backs who filtered through the line. The other Woodwardite who held the limelight was Ted Szele- gowski who saved Woodward from many embarrasing situa- tions by doing some fine punting. Szelegowski looks like a fine back, who, with a little more practice should develop into the ball carrier needed to bring a much desired win to Woodward. The Bear offensive threat came when, in the second quarter after ripping off many good gains, the line bogged down and left the Scott team in to Woodward's backfield, hence the Bears failed to score. The Bear Cubs were found very weak in the defensive de- partment. The Scott Bulldogs lost many substantial gains be- cause of their lack of a good passer. The second serious lightweight injury in the city was suffered by Melvin Singer, Scott end, whose leg was broken. Gus Schoonmaker, Bear quar- terback, is still complaining about his bed partner, Bert Stew- art. Olin Boroughf also had quite a time with the small beds. Six former Woodward stu- dents are members of the two leading lightweight football teams, the North Toledo Mer- chants and Polish Merchants. Bill Donovan, and Dick Davis belong to the North Toledo team while Lawrence Roberts, Nick Zaremski, Gene Roman, and Ed Kocosinski are members of the Polish eleven. I I I Joe Barbara, junior center, and Joe Wichkowski, sophomore tackle, saw service for the first tiine this year during the Kiser ti t. Ralph Brott, Bear end, had to remove his cast to play in the Dayton game and he was first thought to have a broken finger but a closer examination proved it was all right. KWOODWARD Bows TO DAYTON KISER Old Statue Of Liberty Play Spells Defeat For Woodward Dayton Kiser's city champion- ship football team members evened last year's 32-13 defeat when they fooled the Bears last Saturday with the bewhiskered Statue of Liberty play for two of the three talleys of the Kiser 21, Woodward 13 score. Woodward led 13-7 at the half, Hiltman scor- ing seven points and Pelczarski making the last Woodward touchdown. Soon after Dayton kicked off in the first quarter, an exchange of punts found the Bears on Day- ton's 35 yard stripe. In two more plays they fumbled and Kiser took the ball on the 18, but after two- plays they fumbled and Woodward captured the ball still on the 18 yard line. In seven more plays a Swantek-Hiltman pass from the four scored. It was after this talley that the point was con- verted. After the next kick off, Siebert, Kiser fullback, punted over VVoodward's goal, Wood- ward ran the ball from the 20 to the 32 where a short pass was intercepted and terminated in a Kiser touchdown. Pelczarski ran the kick off back to the Bears' 35 where a Hiltman-Tschogl pass on the first play put the ball on the blue and white 36. In six more plays Pelczarski crossed the goal on a pass from Hiltman. Dayton's touchdowns were made one in each of the last three quarters. Sports Editor Ill Norma Jean Allen, girl's sports editor of the Tattler staff, is confined to bed due to inflamed glands in her leg. Doris Shortt, cub reporter, will fill the vacated position until Norma Jean returns. Hiltman Heads Polar Bears' Scores With Seven Points Red Hiltman, with seven points leads the Woodward scor- ing this year with Gus Schoon- maker and Ed Pelczarski follow- ing with a touchdown apiece. Orville Swantek has one point, made by a placement in Cleve- land Central game. There is an open date this week but the Bears have four more games on their schedule in which to improve these figures. Students Examined During the past week, five doctors have taken 913 medical examinatins of the students in the school including 508 girls and 405 boys. Infected tonsils, decayed teeth, and heart ailments have been fcund in more cases of the girls than the boys. Several cases of anemia and malnutrition have been found among the boys. M-mf THE WOODWARD TATTLER 2 LANGUAGE CLUBS PLAN PEP MEETING Skit, College Songs, Guest Speaker, Featured October 24 Combining their efforts, the German and Spanish clubs will .sponsor the WoodWard-DeVil- biss mass-meeting Thursday, October 24. Besides a pep talk by Dave MacMurray, the group will pre- sent a skit entitled SchoolDays, with the audience participating in singing football songs. Taking part in the program are Ruth Malikowski, Bernard Green- baum, Ethel Crane, Joe Meyer, Annette Veller, Dora Jackman, Louis Beebe, George Spaulding, Arthur Baum, Edmund Goscin, students from the Spanish clubj and William Bloomer, Frederick Holtfreter, Harry Miller, Joseph Sterling, Emily Braunschweiger, Virginia Schlievert, German club members. Nymphiadora Funke, German club president, Ruth Ann Devlin, president of the Spanish club, and Miss Anne Wetterman, ad- viser, have charge of the pro- gram. . Classroom Clippings I 'What are the principal parts of the verb send? asked Howard Phipps of one of his Latin classes. Send, sent, and sended replied a student. The effect on the class was startlinga ' . The steam that blows a whis- tle never turns a wheel, said Emily Strachan toa loud whis- tler in the barck pf the room. One fine morning as some stu- dents were reading books, Grace Cronk said to her biology class, You are all worms. As all of the class looked up, she added, book- worms. . . ' 'fPlease walk on your toes! exclaimed Miss June Anderson to her fourth hour art class. May- be Woodward students need toe- dancing instructions. Central, Waite Undefeated, Tied For First In Standings Central and Waite top the city standings with the unmarred record in their games so far this season. The Irish have won two games While the defending champions have downed only one city foe. Libbey, DeVilbiss, and Woodward have yet to win their first tussle. The Polar Bears have an open date but will resume relations with DeVilbiss the following week. Libbey ver- sus -Scott is the only city game scheduled for this weekend. The standings are: Team W L T Pct.

Latest reports disclose strik- ing facts about the ambitions of members of our school faculty. It was rumored that our own Mrs. Mary Catherine Schuler would love to play an accordion just to make Frank Duvendack lj e al o u s. Incidentally it was learned from an authoritative source that Mr. Duvendack's ob- ject of desire is that manly art of wrestling with a mouth organ. To teach Latin from a book written by himself seems to be Howard Phippis big objective. Miss Edna McLaughlin looks forward to the time when her idea of installing loud speakers in 216 will be carried out, thus en- abling the teacher in charge to rinake himself heard above the in. Information was gathered con- cerning Miss Louise Tippett's ambition which is to be able some day to induce all of her students that those A's and F's on her small cards mean something. Barrage Of Tests Expected As Faculty Buys Duplicators The word Duplicator has an ominous ring in it somewhere and this scribe was delegated, for various reasons, to locate it. From the definition given by Webster we can see no harm in this word for Noah says that a Duplicator is a copying machine. Where, then, you ask, is the dreaded meaning? In its use, my dear Watson, in its use! It seems that several Wood- ward teachers have acquired a number of these contraptions and are using them to ill advan- tage, for a teacher can reel off enough tests and quizzes for a whole class in about five minutes. To whom it may concern: Miss Rozella Woodrich, Miss Mary Ward, Miss Adrienne Curtis, Mrs. Marie Ersig, and Henry Van Gorder, and the entire English department are the malfeasant instructors. Students who are pupils of these teachers have many a test in store for them. French Students Purchase Books Direct From France With the purpose of providing low-priced classics for advanced French students, Miss Adrienne Curtis purchased a number of pa- per bound French forms of lit- erature direct from France. The books have an intrinsic value of about ten cents which is about a fourth as much as they cost cloth bound. Wrapped in a SOPHOMORE CLASS BEGINS ELECTION Primaries Are October 295 Advisers in Charge of Election Petitions for nominations of the sophomore class were avail- able during the past week in room 308.

K Q U With the dissolving of the Girls' Athletic League, girls work- ing for letters become associate members of the W club. Clyda Lee Ridenour was elect- ed treasurer of the club at the meeting held last Tuesday. Unnecessary Hall Running To Be Curbed By Teachers Holding a faculty meeting last Monday evening, the teachers de- cided to curb the unnecessary running in the halls. This precau- tion is being taken as a protec- tive measure against another ac- cident like one which knocked a teacher unconscious in one of the high schools recently.

As One Of The Greatest To see the Woodward Parent- Teacher association one of the greatest organizations of its kind in Toledo is my ambition, said Merle Devlin, president, when interviewed recently. A goal for a membership of 350 has been set by this group for the coming year. Mr. Devlin is an enthusiastic Sportsman, and when asked ifhe had any particularly interesting experiences, he scratched his slightly bald head. Yes, I sup- pose I have, he answered. I can think of many 'fish stories,' but we'll skip those for some other sport. His account of a deer hunt in the Adirondack mountains proved extremely interesting. In 1912 the president was a professional football player, for three years he was a semi-profes- sional basketball, football, and baseball player. Born in Toledo, Mr. Devlin spent a large part of his youth on the shores of Lake Huron in Port Sanilac, Michigan. He recieved his education in Old Central high school in this city. His summers are spent either at Houghton or at Devil's Lake, Michigan, with his family, fishing, swimming, and golfing. A business-man, Merle Devlin has been in the shoe business for twenty years, and at present owns a store in Toledo. The Woodward Parent-Tea- cher group meets every third Wednesday at 8:15 p. m. at Woodward. The next regular meeting is on November 20. . , 27 Organizations Benefit By Receipts Of Club Dance Twenty-seven clubs in Wood- ward will benefit by the all club dance, the Shekel Shufiief' which was held Friday, October 49 the approximate sum of S50 net will, with a small additional amount from each club, pay for the Saga cuts which cost each organization 554.50 each. T Although 300 persons attend- ed, the attendance was not as large as expected. Woodward Band Plays For Crippled Children Monday Dressed in full uniform of blue and white, the members of the Woodward band played on the lawn at the Crippled Children's Home on Collingwood and Cen- tral avenues, Monday, October 14. The purpose behind this plan was to provide entertainment for the crippled youngsters who sel- dom have an opportunity of hear- ing music. Guy Sutphen, band master, selected Woodward to entertain. After the program, the mem- bers of the band were served cake and a photograph of them was taken. W OODW RD T TTLER EE-IRS Constantly, Consistently Constructive g Q-IGEERS Vol. VIII Toledo, Ohio October 24, 1935 No. 7 SOPHS ADD TWELVE TO NOMINATION LIST Campaign Managers Boost Candidates At Class Gathering Petitions nominating twelve more students for officers of the sophomore class were taken out since the last issue of the Tattler. A petition for the oflice of president was taken out for Ben Sliwinski, with petitions circu- lating for Eugenia Chrzanowski and Bessie Maverkos for treas- urer. Virginia Bocian's name will appear on the ballot running for office of secretary. Reporter of the sophomore class will be elected from Ellen Jane Scott, Frances Borcowski, and Eleanor Myers. The names of Theone Worthington, Helen Danielewicz, John Bielski, Harold Ingle, and Helen Gibbins have increased the list of candidates for the execut- ive committee. At the meeting of the soph- omore class, Tuesday during con- ference hour, campaign man- agers spoke for their candidates. Primary elections will be held October 29, and the final election on November 5. Annual Tattler Luncheon Takes Place In Cafeteria With the return of twelve staff members from the state press convention in Columbus, the annual Tattler luncheon was held last Tuesday, fifth hour, in the cafeteria. After the luncheon, a meeting was held in the library at which time each representative student gave a short talk on one phase of the trip. Guests were all newswriting students, Principal C. C. LaRue, Miss Mary Hutchinson, super- viser of high school English de- partments, Miss Adrienne Curtis, Miss Hazel McManamon, Rosa- line Pazarzycki, Robert Root of the print shop, and the Tattler advisers, Mrs. Marie Ersig and Hugh Montgomery. Twelve Sagas For Sale Twelve last year Sagas which were uncalled for are to be sold, for the regular price, to the first who ask for them. It was also announced by the staff that plans are being made for a sales campaign to begin in the near future. Grade Cards Out Soon Students will receive their grade cards Monday, November 4, Principal C. C. LaRue an- nounced. Unsatisfactories have not been sent to parents of students this term because students were late in securing text books. ENGLISH CLASSES SPONSOR CONTEST Woodward Pupils Are Asked To Enter Essays On Red Cross W o o d w a rd English depart- ment will ask students to turn in themes on Value of the Red Cross. The entries must be sub- mitted to the judges before Oct- ober 31. This contest is being held in conjunction with the annual Red Cross roll call Armistice Day,Nov- ember 11. There will be no prizes except for the honor the winner will derive. As the subject has been well known through the school careers of Woodward pu- pils, instrutors are expecting thorough and comprehensive pa- pers. Each English teacher may have the entire class write themes or appoint a group to write and select the best three. Every in- structor is expected to turn in three which will make a total of thirty-six for the Woodward judges, Miss Edith Murphy, Miss Frances Sivers, and Miss Han- nah Shaw, who in turn will sel- ect the five best. At an English teachers meet- ing last Monday, it was decided to co-operate with the request of the Red Cross to hold the con- test. Senior Dramatists Present Violin Maker Of Cremona The Play Shop will present The Violin Maker of Cremona at the November senior class meeting, Thursday, November 21.

Thank You T THE 1935 convention of the journal- istic association of Ohio schools at Columbus last Friday and Saturday, Wood- ward was represented by twelve pupils and Mrs. Marie Ersig, Tattler adviser. There is no doubt that Woodward was well represented by these people. In fact, they constituted the largest delegation of any Toledo school and probably of other places outside of Columbus. Much know- ledge and journalistic atmosphere was gleaned at the meeting by the pupils. To you who have made this trip possible by purchasing a Tattler each week, we ex- press our whole-hearted appreciation. Two Mill Levy Religion, morality, and knowledge being necessary to good government and the happiness of mankind, schools and the means of Education shall forever be encouraged. --Thomas Jefferson. N DECEMBER 31, 1935, the Two Mill Levy for school operation expires. The renewal of this levy, which has been in ex- istence since 1920, would cause no increase in taxation but would continue the present educational opportunities given to Toledo School children. Should this levy fail to carry, S772,000 would be lost for the schools. This loss would undoubtedly necessitate the closing of many Toledo schools, or the reduction or the school year to less than six months. With election day nearing, the Board or Education is making an urgent appeal to the citizens of Toledo to vote for the levy. Acquaint your parents with the sample ballot printed in this copy. Take a lively interest in this most important issue. Ad- vocate its renewal. Faithful LMOST everyone gazed dreamily out of classroom windows today, planning how that precious day of vacation would be spent tomorrow. That is, everyone except the printshop boys. They had their backs to the windows. All week they have been setting up type for the stories you are now reading. Today they fed the hungry presses, with the result that seventh hour, on Thursday instead of Friday, you received a complete Tattler, hot off the press. To Hugh Montgomery and his printshop lads may we say---many thanks! FANCY THAT Hello everybody!

This chance was not muffed by Libbey, and they converted it into a touchdown and emerged from the game ahead by a 12-7 Count. The Cubs after working the ball into the Cowboys, territory, sent Ted Klonowski over the last chalk line for a tally. Seconds later Ted Szelegowski split the bars for the extra point. The improvement of the Cubs was noticeable. The forward wall, after failing to help their backs in former games, seemed to more efficiently support the backfield with better blocking and tackling. The Bears still have games on schedule with Waite and DeVil- biss in which to end their season successfully. Movie Pays For Trip Payment of the bill contracted when the Woodward band jour- neyed to Dayton to play at the Dayton Kiser game, will be paid for out of the receipts of the twelve reel movie, The Cat's Paw, starring Harold Lloyd. It was announced recently by William Rohr that the price will be ten cents and it will be shown Monday, December 9.

Gil Harre Gil Harre, all-city tackle from Woodward a few years ago, is playing right tackle on the pow- erful Ohio State football squad. After being selected on the Big Ten all star team last year, Gil is one of the outstanding candi- dates for an All-American berth this year. Special Cards Allow Boys To Bowl At Reduced Price Woodward boys are able to go bowling again as last year at half price if they secure one of the high school bowling association cards from one of the teachers in the boys' gym. These cards are available now to anyone. Later in the season a high school league will be formed and, if enough in- terest is shown, a league may be formed within the school. Any group of five boys may form a team. Fasces Club To Give Next Skating Party November 1 The second skating party of the year, given by the Fasces club, will be held at Memorial hall from 8 p. m. to 11 p. m. on Friday, November 1. Marietta May, chairman of committee arranging the skate, will be aided by Agnes Nasta, Walter McVicker, JaneWoloski, and Rita Kasprzak. Alice Farris is president of the organization with Howard ,Phipps, adviser. .mint .Woodward's offensive started clicking against the Toledo University freshman squad when they scrimmaged last Thursda y. Each team scored three touch- downs. Al Greenwood, sophomore tackle, will undoubtedly be lost to the football squad for the year as his leg is still in splints. Tough luck, Al. Plans are beihgtmade for the third annual Hi-Y-Quill and Dagger football game. Gym Classes Indoors Girls' gym classes under the rection of Miss Catherine di- Mc- Clure and Miss Stella Cornwall are playing soccer, hockey, and taking archery. Since bad weath- er does not permit outdoor sports, teams are competing in line soc- Cer. Scott Defeats Libbey And Advances To Second Place As there was only one intra- city tilt,last week-end, Scott and Libbeyjthere is little change the standings as reported la in st week. Scott advanced to second place while Libbey is tied with Woodward for last. The on ly other city tilt this week besides the Woodward-DeVilbiss game is the Central-Waite clash tomor- row under lights.The ever chan ing standings follow. Team W. L g.. . T. Pct. Central 2 0 0 1.000 Scott 2 0 1 1.000 yWaite 1 0 0 1.000 1DeVilbiss 0 1 1 .000 Woodward 0 2 0 .000 iLibbey 0 2 0 .000 WOODWARD MEETS DeVILBISS TON IGI-lp Change In Schedule Made To Avoid Conflict With Other Games Instead of playing Friday as scheduled, Woodward will meet DeVilbiss tonight at 8:15 P.M. in the new Page stadium. Because of the Waite-Central tussle Fri- day and the University of Toledo g-ame Saturday, this change was made in order to draw a larger crowd. Last year the score was 13-0 in favor of the DeVilbiss team when the Tigers unleashed a lateral pass attack that com- pletely baEled the Bears. DeVilbiss' main threat is Ford- ham, their shifty, hard hitting half-back. Gee and Patterson in the backfield present the other main opposition with Rae, the lanky end, receiving most of their passes. Scott battled the Tigers tc a scoreless tie and defeated Woodward 18-0 which gives the Upton Avenue team an edge on any betting, but the unexpected sometimes happens. Ralph Brott's broken finger is not yet healed and Lennie Lam- ont broke his thumb last week in practiceg both may be unable to participate in to-night's game. Marok or Arvay will start in Brott's place at end if he is un- able to play. The probable lineup will find Root and Dawson performing at the guard positions, Wheaton and Boroughf will work at tack- les, Tschogl and Arvay or Marr-k will take care of the flanks, Hilt- man will fill the fullback position with Swantek and Pelczarski tak- ing care of the halfback posts, while Schoonmaker will call the plays. Ace Keller will center. I Shop Notes I Members of the Aviation soci- ety tried out for parts in a play that the club is giving soon. It is named Going Through Col- lege in one Day. The scenes are laid in a menls fraternity house. I I O P. O. Thomae, machine shop teacher, refuses to let us print the fact that he made a new belt for one of his lathes Monday. Boys in the auto shop bought a two cycle, two cylinder marine engine with shop funds, and are experimenting with it. Instructor Nuber hopes that it won't scare students in 216 with its roar. Joy Mohrhardt, general shop instructor, has mounted in the shop a job planner. This divides the work into jobs, and the jobs into operations. It helps the stu- dents to form better work habits and to do better work. l I I Electricity classes taught by A. R. Bitter began shop work out of textbooks.

THE WOODWARD TATTLER DVENTURERS RETURN FROM TRIP A THRILLED BY SIGHTS AT CAPITAL Stately Neil House, State Capital, Ohio University, Husky Grid Players, Journalists Hold Attention Of Tattler Staff 'tWas it a dream? chanted twelve lusty voices owned by twelve Woodward Tattler students as they rolled homeward from the Journalism convention held in Columbus last week. No, it really wasn't a dream, for so many thrills could never be packed into one fantasy of the mind. For many days to come, these delegates will be, in memory, twelve of some 41,635 people rising to their feet as old glory majestically waves over Ohio State's stadium, and the band softlym plays the national a n t h e m. State's rousing chant mingling with Northwestern's cheer will ever ring in their ears. At the convention, held in the Neil House, every minute brought something new and fascinating-U Jean James---famous newspaper woman journalist convinced Ber- tha Payak, Colette Jenson, and Rita Loerke that the fair tribe really has its place in the news- paper world. Robert Keiter vows that feature is his all in all after hearing Adrien Fuller state that humor adds spice to a paper. Nathan Schwartz and Aaron No- vick have come to the conclusion that being a football player and a pledge to a Frat isn't so much after all, while Wayne Romer and Donald Knoke think that they'll take their own alarm clock the next time they visit a fraternity overnight. Right this way! here's the best hamburger factory in Col- umbus ---it's Doris Rokicki and William Phifer who tell you this. Charlotte Essick and Julia Ben- nett are going to start a danc- ing class since they have added steps from many Ohio cities to their repertoire. All together this jaunt to the Journalism Association of Ohio was thoroughly educational and entertaining. .1-.....?....i-.- Amateur Archers Prepare For Forthcoming Contest A large number of students have been practicing with bows and arrows for the coming arch- ery tournament. D Girls who have begun practic- ing are Lucille Kapela, Betty Jane Taylor, Eftheniia Vosdo- ganes, Edna Mae Kelly, Mildred Nassar, Dorothy Lewandowski, Marietta May, and Agnes Nasta. Boys who are shooting are Henry Toper, Edward Pfefferle, Robert Boyles, Harold Luce, Evelyn Grubb And F. Tyrrell Hear Brandt At Open Forum Evelyn Grubb and Frances Tyr- rell, students in Miss Edna McLaughlin's American Gover- ment class, attended the Friday night Open Forum lecture of Dr. Albert Brandt, exile of Germany, who spoke on The Most Danger- ous Alliance of the World---Ger- many and Japan. Right now Hitler is trying to marry the German princess to King Karol of Rumania to keep the two countries on friendly terms. He has also promised Austria and Hungary that if they declined economic sanctions he would help them unite. This week Mr. Pollock is send- ing Dorothy Kaszubiak and Bertha Payak, students in his Sociology class, to hear Dr. May- nard Kruger at the next Open Forum lecture. English Students To Head Papers According To Form Mrs. Hazel McManamon, head of Woodward's English depart- ment, announced at a meeting on Monday, October 21, that all pa- pers handed in to English teach- ers are to be headed the same way. The correct form is shown here. John Smith English V Hour 4 October 25, 1935 This will eliminate nameless papers, and will make them eas- ier to file. COOKING TEACHER n CHAMPIONS BOYS Congenial Miss Abair Thinks Male Species Make Fine Cooks g'Boys are much more interest- ed in cooking than most girls, explained Miss Angela Abair, teacher of home economics, while being interviewed Monday, Octo- ber twenty-first, during the fifth hour. This jolly instructor went on to say that cooking is only a small part of what boys learn while taking home economics. They learn manners, appropriate dress for every occasion and many other useful matters, deal- ing with everyday life. When cooking failures occur, boys are more disappointed while girls seem to regard failures as an ordinary occurrence. i'Being tidy while cooking and washing dishes depend largely upon the pupil's environment at home,', she went on to state. She went on to laughingly say that boys usually like to eat everything they cook and any- thing else they find in the room. I like to teach boys home economics and I believe that they benefit very much in taking this subject,', Miss Abair con- cluded. School Closes All Day Because of the Northwestern Ohio Teachers' meeting tomor- row, school will be closed all day. Miss Blanche Hazelton, home economics teacher, will speak on 'Better Citizenship Through Bet- ter Buying at the Women's Club in Toledo. Boys Try New Game Pleased with the outcome of his experimented game similar to soccer, Homer Hanham expects to use this game instead of pass and tap football on rainy days. The game is called line soccer and is being used to teach the students the skills of soccer.

He comes forth once again this year to roam about the corridors, haunt your classes, and generally make a pleasing WD nuisance of himself. We include in this edition a portion of the T. G.

She doesn't seem to be interested in even George F inkler any more. Lucille Kapella and Eleanor Klapp still stick to Woodwardites---they are both wearing some lucky alum- nus' class ring.

Soap Agent Demonstrates To Home Economic Classes As a representative of the home economic and chemical division of Proctor and Gamble, famous soap company, Miss Kathryn Martin has been demonstrating to girls in the home economic classes for the past days the art of laundering articles of apparel. In showing the exact way to wash knit wear, hosiery, and the like, this charming demonstrator uses a good brand of flakes and then washes another identical ar- ticle in a cheap soap. By this method, definite proof is shown that when care is taken in laun- dering the clothes keep the ap- pearance of being new at all times. OOD ARD T TTLER Two-Mill The .

If the Two Mill Levy for school operation, which has been in effect, is renewed, we will have no increase in taxes. But there will be a change if the levy is lost, for the lack of funds will eliminate all our addition- al school activities such as kindergarten for youngsters, gymnasiums, medical services of doctors, dentists, and nurses, music and art, manual training classes, cooking, sewing, home planning, nursing for girls, and a host of others. Are we going to allow all these extra but necessary subjects to be taken from us and leave a tedious school life? Coincidence OOTBALLS are sailing back and forth in the boys' gym. Suddenly one soars up- ward straight as an arrow, headed for the window. The boys stop breathing, fearfully awaiting the crash... Smash! All is quiet save the tinkling sound of broken glass. Every upturned face below wears an incredulous expression. For the third successive time, a football has chosen to shatter one inconspicuous pane of glass. There are five windows in the gym with four hundred and forty-one glass panes. We Like It Signed FEW DAYS ago a criticism of last week's Tattler was deposited at the Tattler ofhce. The critic kept his identity concealed. Appreciating constructive criticism, the Tattler feels justified in accepting only that which contains the writer's signature. Beginning next week, space will be pro- vided for a Letters to the Editor column. Readers are urged to present their criti- cisms and views of various school problems in the form of signed letters. Good breeding consists in concealing how much we think of ourselves and how little we think of the other person. ---Mark Twain. ANCY TH T THINGS THAT WOULD HELP Spaces in ink to save lifting the pen at the end of a word. Jumping beans in footballs for punters who don't punt very well.

Teachers' Travels Canada? Miss Adrienne Curtis, French instructor, settled back dreamily, her vivid blue eyes alight with unhidden enthusiasm. She leaned forward and started to talk with avid interest. We, that is Miss Stella Cornwell, Miss Bertha Bishop, a school principal, a kinder- garten teacher, and I motored through the more picturesque parts of Canada. Over- night we stayed at small rustic French ho- tels. I was interpreter-in-chief of our party as in those backwoods regions hardly any English is spoken. Conditions in Canada, she remarked, pausing, pursing her mouth, and glancing around the room as if in deep thought, are as bad as in the United States. In Quebec the poor people receive so much per day on which to subsist. In the Gaspe peninsula, which was opened publicly to tourists in 1928, the people are much like those in old France. Their chief industry is cod fishing, which reminds me, a little smile lit her face and she regarded me ruefully, that I've done a little deep sea fishing myself. At Grande Valley, I caught a 15 pound cod. From the tone of voice one would gather that she was rather proud. The story of course, hardly anyone believes. They think it's another one of those 'fish storiesf Adventures were plentiful she recalled, too plentiful, she remarked as an after- thought. The most nerve-wracking experi- ence was crossing the St. Lawrence river in a ferry large enough to hold one car. Two small square wooden blocks separated the car from the seething, turbulent St. Lawrence. At times it seemed as if the car were about ready to fall into the river, but luck was with usg and after what seemed ages, we gained the opposite shore. I had a marvelous time and someday I hope to go up there again. this time to see the Dionne Quintupletsf' she concluded.. THE WOODWARD TATTLER WOODWARD TEAMS LOSE CITY GAMES Cubs, Varsity Lose Games As End Of Season Draws Near Bears and Tigers met in mortal combat in the tiger cage at DeVil- biss last Thursday when the Bengals conquered Woodward by a score of 31-6. The Polar Bears were very much in the game during the first half as each team scored one touchdown. In ci dentally the Woodward tally which was the first posted by the Bears against a city opponent came as the re- sult of a Hiltman to Schoonmaker pass. The Bears' defense seemed weak until the Tigers neared the goal line where the Woodward team held off several threats. Passes by the opponents con- tributed largely to their victory since the DeVilbiss team com- pleted thirteen of its attempted twenty-four passes, most of which were thrown to the speedy Maher. Lightweights Play After pushing over two touch downs in the first half, the Wood ward Cubs were downed by Libbey by a 21-13 count when the Cowboys tallied three times in the last half. Al Wagner tallied on a pass and Zig Chwialkowski plunged over for the first counter to put the Bear Cubs in the lead. The first half was all Woodwad and the second period ended 13---0 in favor of the Cubs. This lead was dwindled away and the Cowboys took advantage of a general letdown and crossed the last chalk line three times and converted three place kicks. This was the fourth intra city defeat suffered by the Woodward lightweights. Their lone remain- ing game comes this Saturday when they tangle with Waite on Woodward field. .L. -i1-1 Statistics Show How Polar Bears Lost Third City Game Possibly these statistics will tend to prove why thirty-one points were put on the Tiger side of the scoreboard and but six counters added for the Bears. Of the thirty first downs amassed by the Tigers, ten were through passes, and only ten were made in the first half. Woodward made only four first downs and three of these were by passing. Thir- teen forward and lateral passes were completed while only elev- en hit the ground for the win- ners. The Bears completed only five passes during the tussle. Joe Gee punted for an average of 45 yards in two tries while Red Hiltman was rushed and could only reach 31 yards from scrim- mage in ten boots. The Tigers fumbled three times but recovered twice themselves while the Bears gathered in the other one. DeVilbiss was penaliz- ed fifteen yards for clipping while the Polar Bears were set back 5 yards for off sides. CROWD'S ACTIONS CAUSE COMMENT Woodward Cheering Section Shows Many Faults At DeVilbiss DeVilbiss should be compli- mented on the fact that it is the first city high school to distribute programs free of charge to the spectators---Why didnlt Wood' ward's cheering section respond to the hello cheers from DeVil- biss?---The Woodward student body does not co-operate with the visiting cheer leaders---Congratu- lations to our new drum major for the dignity and leadership he displayed at the game---Where did students get the idea that the cheerleaders and several mem- bers ofthe band must be fed with peanuts. Lack of co-operation was shown by the cheerleaders when each signalled different yells at the same time---A weird effect was produced when smoke from a bonfire flooded the already foggy gridiron---It was reported that Woodwardites were rude to the DeVilbiss ushers---Contrary to the usual procedure, the bands played at different intervals dur- ing the half and marched from the field in formation at the termination of the game. 5 FET M v ..1I'PA M ,H Bill Wheaton, Bear tackle, was unable to practice for or par- ticipate in the DeVilbiss game. Bill had poison ivy on his face and hands. Bert Stewart took his place in the Tiger tilt. I I V Roger Schulz has been ordered not to practice football because of a dislocated bone in his wrist. Coach Art Smith has been try- ing Jim Richardson, a center, at a tackle position because of the lack of tackle candidates. The bottoms of the old red practice jerseys have been cut off and are being used to dis- tinguish the offensive team from the defensive team in a scrim- mage. Bowling Takes Place Among Woodward Varsity Sports Bowling takes its place this year as a varsity sport when the High School Bowling League be- gins its reign November 9 at 10 a.m. at the Auditorium Alleys. There will be two teams entered, one in American and one in the National league, and each squad will carry ten men, five of them playing. Eligibility rules will be the same as those for all other major sports. Bob Bolli and Art Sievert at- tended the meeting at which this sport was discussed Tues- day night, October 29. 'twooDwARD ENCOUNTERS LIBBEY IN SEASON'S LAST NIGHT STRUGGLE Woodward Polar Bears Tangle With Libbey Cowboys Under Incandescents Saturday Night Instead Of In Afternoon At 8:15 tomorrow evening, Woodward meets Libbey in an at- tempt to break its losing streak. The Cowboys have two losses and no wins charged against them, while the Bears are at the bottom of the heap with three defeats and no victories. The Polar Bears will be trying extra hard to win as defeat will put them in the cellar for the rest of the season. Libbey has a much heavier and more experienced team than Woodward but has ' 'fnot been showing the type of Leonard Snyder Wins pass Ifootball. expected from them in To Woodward-Libbey Game l the beginning of the season. Optimists and pessimists en- tering their scores in an effort to win that elusive ducat to the Woodward-Libbey game totaled 105 guesses. Seventy-eight were sent in by those pessimistic souls in favor of DeVilbiss. Harold Jaffe was the chief offender with a 74-0 score. Dolores Joseph took the middle road being the only one to see a scoreless tie in the offing. Earle Ardner headed the optimists,twenty-six in all, hav- ing chosen Woodward by a slim margin of 61 points. Ah but to get down to the good news for one person and this lucky recipient of a pass to the Libbey tussle is none other than Leonard Snyder fno relation to Red,'J with his 34-7 score.

' Holds Office The annual election of the Ath- letic division of the North-west- ern Ohio teachers' meeting re- sulted in placing one of Wood- ward's faculty members in a re- sponsible office. Miss Catherine McClure, girls' gym instructor, is now secretary-treasurer of that organization. ' DeVilbiss Victory Is Only Change In City Standings Central, Scott, and Waite are tied for first place in the city high school league, the same as last week, while Woodward and Libbey claim last, neither having won a game. The only change was the win registered by DeVil- biss over Woodward. The latter team and Libbey will try to climb out of the cellar tomorrow, but there is a strong possibility of a tie game as it was last year. Until tomorrow the standings are: Team W L T Pct Central 2 0 1 1 .000 Scott 2 0 1 1.000 Waite 2 0 1 1.000 DeVilbiss 1 1 1 .500 Libbey 0 2 0 .000 Woodward 0 3 O .000 The Western Avenue boys were defeated 21-7 by Scott, while the score of the Woodward- Scott game was 18-0 in favor of Scott. A stronger offense was shown by Libbey against Cen- tral than in any other game when the Cowboys pushed across two touchdowns, but the defensive work was so poor that they came out on the short end of 20-14 count. Last year the tussle ended in a scoreless tie after the Bears had worked the ball down to the three yard line where with four at- tempts they were unable to push it over. As both teams have not shown a very strong offense or defense, the tussle again may end in a scoreless tie. Coach Art Smith plans to use the same lineup as used in previ- ous games. Possibly Bill Whea- ton, who is recovering from an attack of poison ivy, may be able to take over his post at tackle. v-l.lT,...i Smith Speaks On Radio Amiable Art Smith made his debut over the radio when he was called from the street by Radio Don on his weekly pro- gram last Saturday. Woodward's coach was ap- proached on the subjects of the Central-Waite tussle and the next Woodward game. A Popular Sport So many students desired to compete in the archery tourna- ment this year that three days were required to complete the contest. By drawing lots each contestant found whether he was to shoot Wednesday, Thursday, or today. Each person was re- quired to shoot 18 arrows in groups of 6.

Of the ten pupils represen- ting various schools, it was my lot to study under Earl Grebe, chief of the copy desk. This position seems to be one of the most interesting but diffi- cult positions on the staff, for all' news except theatre, sports, and radio must ass throu h the 1 P g hands of the copy men to be headlined and read. Here also, news gathered by the lnterna- tional News Service and the Associated Press is selected by Mr. Grebe for use in the paper. More than twice as much is de- stroyed than is used. The make- up for the home edition is made each day at a meeting of various department heads under Charles R. Corbin, managing editor. The ells About Visit To Blade placing of stories for the street editions is done by the men at the copy desk. In all there are seven who work at the semi-circular desk.

He enjoys being impudent, cutting classes, and neglecting assignments. In the back of his mind is the vague intention of . settling down, but he shies at the thought of giving up his good times. In the meantime the number of little white cards kept by his dean grows. Each card contains a complaint from one of his teachers. Some are of minor importance, others are serious offences. Years fly by. The gay, carefree days of high school are over, and X is hunting a job. He hears of an opening and applies. Woodward High School? A keen-eyed business man appraises him and tells him to return the next day. Meanwhile he com- municates with Woodward High School. The oflice gives him X's record as disclosed by the white cards. The next dayXreturns and is informed that the vacancy is filled. And X wonders why it is so hard to find a job. A J unior. Red Cross VERY year, for a period of time,Wood- ward becomes 'QRed Cross conscious. English students resign themselves to the task of writing a Red Cross essay. They are supplied with the facts, and it is their problem to present them in a different manner each year. As soon as the essays are completed, the Red Cross is forgotten until next year. The Red Cross can be kept before the student body throughout the entire year. With the organization of a Junior Red Cross, students are fascinated by the valu- able national and international contacts it provides, in addition to the long list of local activities. A Junior Red Cross exists in three Toledo high schools. Will Woodward respond to the annual roll call by joining the ranks? We'd Like To Oblige CC HY DOESN'T the Tattler contain more student pictures? The use of faculty cuts costs us nothing, thanks to the Saga staff which loans them to us. A few student cuts were purchased last year: for every additional student pic- ture about S4.50 must be expended. We would like to give every deserving student recognition, but the strain on our pocket-book makes this impossible. , but at the same time to be tolerant in their attitudes and fair in their judgement toward every other nation on earth. In other words the ideal toward which education should tend is the cultivation of an international mind in our coming citizenry. Similes CNote: These little similes are provided by the twen' ty-nine cubs in seventh hour news-writing class. We commend them for their far-reaching imaginationsj School bus---as packed as a theater running Mae West pictures. Grade cards--as telltale as jam on little brother's face. Homework---as welcome as a second dose of cod liver oil. Cheerleaders---as expressive as Zasu Pitts. Last bell at 2:30---as disliked as strawberry shortcake. Student council---the cop on the beat. Dismissal bell is like a gunshot at a track meet. Conference hour is like a family reunion. An apple third hour---like gold to a forty- niner. Borrowing money at lunch period is like trying to get blood out of a turnip. 8:30 bell as well liked as being sent to bed on Christmas Eve. At football games---jolted like a solitary penny in an iron bank. Assignments---as welcome as rain at a foot- ball game. Study hour---as noisy as the six day bicycle race. The mysterious Who's Who of the last edition was none other than Jessie Mathie. WOODY WOODWARD Dear Woody: What makes Martha Partykowski giggle so much? Snokes. Dear Snokey: Shels probably eaten chicken more or less and the feathers are still tickling her. - . . Wood D. Dear Woody: I've noticed that a certain sophomore lad whom we took to be a Woman hater is getting absent minded. Who is the girl? Ima Noseygal. Dear lman: If you mean Allen Coleman, the object of his affections is the beautiful blonde. Bonnie Jean Zirwes. Have you ever stopped before the shelves in Woodward's library that contain biographies? These sections hold stories of romance and adventure of which one would never dream. If you crave adventure, why not peruse the biography of Captain John Smith written by Vernon Quinn, or perhaps ad- venture in the frozen wastes of Alaska would whet your imagination---let Eliza- beth M. Ricker recount amazing deeds for you in her Sippola, Alaskan Dog Driver. For those interested in the fields of in- vention and science The Life of Thomas Edison is recommended, while William Crawford Gorgas is a thrilling biography of the hero who conquered the deadly ma- laria in Panama---Francis A. Jones, and Mrs. Gorgas, aided by Hendrick, the great biographer, are the respective authors of these two books. Sea stories are always adventurous and refreshing---especially the tales of the sea- devil Count Von Luckner written in the inimitable Lowell Thomas style. - Letters To The Editor I Dear Editor: In last week's Tattler, there was an arti- cle concerning the amount of money do- nated by school organizations to the club room fund. As yet no club has made use of this room. True, all the plans for dec- orating are not yet complete, but it still offers many more conveniences for holding a meeting than can be obtained elsewhere. Why don't these organizations who con- tributed take advantage of this opportunity in reward for their payments? N. S. Dear Editor: As a junior, I believe that something should be done about our hall patrol system. It must seem strange to some people that an opinion like this should come from a student, but in view of the fact that we all desire to see Woodward tops , something should be done. Students do not respect pupils who have given up periods to serve the school. There is also too much laxity in demanding dis- play of permits, by all means we must break up the conference periods of privel- eged students in the halls. With the establishment of this year's hall patrol let us hope that there is a great imprcxfeflnent. THE WOODWARD TATTLER TOLEDO HIGH SCHOOLS ORGANIZE BOWLING LEAGUE FOR STUDENTS Woodward, Libbey, DeVilbiss, St. Johns, Vocational Enter Teams In Both Leagues, howard Phipps Heads Bear Bowlers . Tomorrow morning at ten o'clock the hum of the ball and th9 crash as it strikes the pins will announce the opening of the High School Bowling League at the Auditorium Alleys. if I P, Each school may enter a team in each of two leagues, the American and the National.

If The team score for each game will determine? A -A f the winner and loser, city standings are to be LLM MMQQ,,g,,,,mg, figured on a percentage basis of games won and H. Phipps lost. Each contestant pays thirty cents for his own three games that he must bowl each Saturday. At the conclusion of the season, the teams in first place in the two leagues will play a series of three games to determine the city championship team which will receive an award through the courtesy of the Toledo Blade. Larry Gazzolo owner of the Auditorium Bowl-G - '- ing Alleys, will present a medal to the highest individual scorer. This league is sponsored jointly by the Toledo Blade, Auditorium Alleys, and the Physical Educa- tion department. Probably letters will be pre- sented to the members of Wood- ward's teams by the Athletic Board. Howard Phipps, bowling coach, plans to use the rating system to choose a team. Anyone who wishes to gain a position on the team must bowl against some member above him in the rating, if he can defeat him two games out of three, he will replace this man. The teams expected to compete this week include Fred Skaff,- Eugene Fielder, Robert Bolli, Ralph Brott, and Dan Marok in one team and Amos Kelting,l Roger Schulz, Bill Wheaton, Andy Arvay, and Robert Woz- niak in the other. Woodward's Cubs Conquer Perrysburg For First Win The Polar Bear Cubs conquered the Perrysburg eleven on the Woodward field by a 12-6 count. This was the first victory scored by the lightweights in five starts. The Bears pushed over the first touchdown in the initial period, and again in the final quarter' when a score was needed to win. Both kicks for points after touch- downs were blocked. The eleven from Perrysburg scored their touchdown after two consecutive off-side penalties gave them a first down on the five yard line from where they pushed it over in four plays. The Cubs are scheduled to tan- gls with the Waite Papooses at' 3:00 Friday afternoon. Girls Keep Cards A notice has been posted by Miss Stella Cornwell and Miss Catherine McClure to the effect that all girls working for a letter should have begun a health card record on Monday. If any letter- worker does not have a card, it, would be advisable to obtain one. ' B 1 Russ Erdmann, sophomore center, broke the little finger on his left hand in practice last week. Tough luck, Russ. Many a sore shoulder and hip has shown a careful inspection of the football squad. The extra weight of the Cowboys shows up in black and blue. Gus Schoonmaker, Bear quar- terback, broke all records and wore a shirt to school for the first time this year. Hurrah! Gus Schoonmaker Leads In Polar Bears' Total Scoring Gus Schoonmaker, Wood- ward's scrappy little barker, leads the Polar Bear scorers with four touchdowns for a total of twenty-four points. Incidentally, Gus has scored the three tallies pushed over by the Bears in their intra-city frays. Joe Hiltman's seven points are the results of a touchdown and a point after. Red, though he has scored but once, should receive credit for his passing and run- ning which have paved the way to the opponents goal line. Ed Pelczarski is the only other Bear to cross the goal of the opponents, but Orville Swantek booteda point after the touch- down in the Kiser game. Roll Or Flop Sponsored By Sr.Hi-Y At Memorial, Nov. 15 The Roll or Flop, the third skating party of the year, will be presented by the Senior Hi-Y November 15, from 8 to 11 P. M. at Memorial Hall. The committee arranging the skate consists of Eugene Zytkus, chairman, Gale Weaner and Ray Delano. R. K. Sheline and L. J. Robie are advisers. fKNIGHTS WIN PASS, TAP CHAMPIONSHIP Machinists Are Toppled By Polish Knights In Final Tilt Woodward's two intra-mural leagues, American and National, finished their pass and tap tourn- ament last week and started volley-ball last Monday. In the American league, the Machine Shop won out in pass and tap but were defeated by the Polish Knights, champions of the National league, for the pass and tap football title. The Polish Knights are high in number of points with fifty-five. Volley-ball games will be played until Thanksgiving rolls around and then the intra-mural teams will have a rest for a while, as the varsity basketball team will need the floor for preliminary practice. After Christmas will come intra- mural basketball with sixteen teams entered in the tourney.

Three of the guessers climbed the fence and called tie scores. This seemed to be the week for first time as the largest score was 67-7 in Woodward's favor. But to get down to the facts you have all been waiting for, Charles Kosbab is the lucky re- cipient of a ducat to the Wood- ward-Lima game as his 13-12 score, though in Woodward's favor, was most nearly correct' Tigers Beat Waite, Bears Remain In Cellar Position As a result of their 31-7 victory over Waite, DeVilbiss climbed into the third spot in city stand- ings. Woodward as the result of its last minute 13-12 defeat, dropped into the sole possession of the cellar which it seems destined to hold for the rest of the year. The standings follow: T W L T eam Pct Scott 2 0 1 1.000 Central 2 0 1 1.000 DeVilbiss 2 1 1 .666 Waite l 1 1 .500 Libbey 1 2 0 .333 Woodward 0 4 0 .000 POLAR BEARS LOSE TO COWBOYS 13-12 Libbey Overcomes Twelve Point Lead In Last Quarter After holding a 12-0 lead at the beginning of the fourth quarter, Woodward's gridders lost their fourth intra-city game when Libbey scored thirteen points in the last few minutes of the game to win. Incidentally, this was the Cowboy's first city victory. The Bears scored in the initial period by a Hiltman to Schoon- maker pass after Ralph Brott had snagged another aerial to place the ball in scoring terri- tory near the Libbey 20 yard line. Hiltmanls placekick was partial- ly blocked. Threats were made by Woodward in the second and third quarters when forward lat- erals, Hiltman to Tschogl to Gross, penetrated deep into the South Enders' territory. Fum- bles spoiled their chances on both occasions, but the Polar Bears scored despite this sad break in the third period. After regaining the ball, Red Hiltman passed to Gus Schoonmaker who raced 63 yards for the tally. Once again Hiltman's kick was no good. Libbey scored near the middle of the last period when George Parker carried the ball over on an end sweep. A few minutes later Pinnegar gathered in a pass in the end zone to tie the score. A pass to a substitute end crossed up the Polar Bear defense and tallied the winning point. Gus Schoonmaker and Joe Hiltman were the main cogs in the offense while Florian Tschogl and Olen Boroughf stood out in the forward wall. --Til,T. Boys Begin Indoor Spor ts, Start Achievement Tests With the advent of wet and cold weather, the boys' gym classes have started their indoor sports, the upper classmen be- ginning with volley ball. The freshmen boys have started their achievement tests this week to check their ability, and later in the year the tests ill be repeated to find their imprgvement. There have been a few changes in the tests this year. The boys will run seventy-five yards instead of eighty-six, and the push-up will be substituted for the dip. Also the target for the baseball throw will be changed. --i ,., Did You See It Too We wonder who the small lad was who quite evidently was mocking our band leader. Novel benches for the players were used at Libbey, with canvas backs shielding the bench warm- ers from the wind. Although Libbey's band rushed from the field immediatly at the end of the game, Woodward's band marched off in formation. Libbey goal posts were nicely decorated in the school colors.

TWO SENIORS HEAR V OPEN FORUM TALK Kaszubiak And Payak, Cover Professor E. Ross Address tEditor's Note: This is a resume of the lecture attended by Dorothy Kaszubiak and Bertha Payak.J People of America must hold on to freedom of the press, speech, and association with a death grip as another Civil War can be averted by keeping Amer- ican principles, stated Professor Edward Allsworth, Ross head of the sociology and anthropology departments of the University of Wisconsin speaking on the Outlook for the Social Futurei' at the Progressive Open Forum, Friday, November 1. Discussing the depression,Pro- fessor Ross, author of twenty-two books, remarked that in 1893 the depression was blamed on Pres- ident Grover Cleveland, Demo- crat, but in 1935 there is no alibi because both Coolidge and Hoo- ver are unresponsible. H.C.Engelbrecht, co-author of Merchants of Death,', will lec- ture on Propaganda In Peace and War November 8 at which Walter Schulisch and Arthur Sievert will be present. Classroom Clippings I An unusual assignment was is- sued by John Grodi when he told pupils in his fourth hour adver- tising class to measure the amount of advertising space in a thick edition of one of Toledo's metropolitan neyvspapers. Constructing quaint figures from orange and black paper is the project carried on by Miss Annie Miller's sixth hour geome- try class. It furnishes the stu- dents practice with the compass and the straight edge. To learn the value of color contrast, Miss June Andersc-nis second year art students are mak- ing surface patterns in black and white. The original compositions were drawn from still-life studies. ,--.-.iii Here's The Reason If Germany hadn't started War on France, if the Archduke of Austria hadn't been murdered, and if the Lusitania hadn't been sunk, the United States wouldn't have been drawn into the World War. If we hadn't started fight- ing, we couldn't have stopped to sign the Armistice on No- vember 11, 1918. ln case you havenit guessed the purpose ofthis flow of hist- ory, it all means that there is no school next Monday. Will Aid Hicks Six junior boys who have been selected to help aid at the senior Hick party are Earl Balsmeyer, Lewis Beebe, George Finkler' Franklin Pohlman, and Gale .. Weaner. CALF BRAIN ADDED TO LAB COLLECTION Mrs. O'Brien's Students Ex- periment With Pick- led Brain h Spongy, oozing gray matter in- side an interesting green-brown skin---this is the portrait of a pickled calf brain, on display in Mrs. Mary O'Brien's laboratory. Last Monday the most courage- ous of her students, Ruth Linker and Ceslano Makulinski, under- took to cut it in half. After it has toughened in lilac-scented alcohol, they will let the strong- stomached public view it in per- fectly cut slices. The outer struc- ture next to the skull is a tough membrane covered with wrinkles which even Edna Wallace Hop- per couldn't eradicate. Just in case you lose your sense of equilibrium, Mrs. O'Brien is willing to give you the back section of the brain where balance is controlled, upon receipt of your garage roof cover- ed with rose petals. Installation is free. - Radio Guild Players Present Shakespearean Plays On Air With the cooperation of schools throughout the country, the Radio Guild players will pre- sent Shakespeare's plays dealing with the lives of kings of England.

Reading should not be a drowsy delight, but should be a most definite and joyous occu- pation, stated Edward Weeks, author and editor-in-chief of the Atlantic Monthly Press, in the course of his lecture, The Im- portance of New Books, Satur- day, November 9. Mr. Weeks said that more books have been read during the depression than ever before. The majority of women read for love, but men read for self-improve-1 ment. Entertainment should not be our only motive for reading. Rita Loerke will attend Theo- dore Dreiser's lecture on Life Sources of aRealist,', on Nov. 16.

TO SUCCEED in life---readg so people who have succeeded tell us. To become interested in books---read. To obtain one of the cheapest means of recreation and edu- cation---read. Shelves of our school and public libraries are full to overflowing with fascinating books. Old books and new, classic and modern, all stimulate the mind, widen the vocabulary, and create a broader outlook on life. You might form a personal library. Sev- eral publishing houses L are organizing Dollar Book Clubs where members may purchase one interesting book each month for one dollar. National Book Week is November 17-23. What could be a more opportune time to begin a new reading progam? Town Hall Tickets S WE are all attending school to secure an education, it is interesting to note that eleven Woodward students have been given the opportunity of attaining knowl- edge not found in the classroom. Reference is being made to those who have been selected by various teachers to attend the Town Hall Series of lectures. As these talks are being given by world famous personalities, that fortunate eleven will see . and possibly acquire the views and attitudes of those who are making history. Paul Block, publisher of the Toledo Blade, is the man who has made this a reality through the donation of tickets. May those attending take full advantage of this wonderful opportunity. For Seniors Only HICKS from Cornerville gaped at hicks from Toonerville last Friday evening in the gym. But best of all, seniors met seniors at their annual Hick party. With no outsiders present, they cavorted, clowned, and visited with members of their own class. New friendships were formed while the old were strengthened. The amicable atmosphere which prevailed proved that an affair of this sort can be a success. Bertha Payak and her committee is to be commended on the fact that there was not one dull moment throughout the whole evening. Floyd Legron trying to get out of his bi- cycle---prank playing motorist and Jess Min- inger saying You're right, I'm wrongv or Ruth Tooman following a certain junior wherever he goes. Nick Allen not handing in his short story---and the shock Miss Cronk receives when Art Schlievert recites in his botany class. Imagine Louis Essick learning how to dance the Rumba Henry Cromer hunting ducks and not his lessons While Frank Pohlman sings over Laneis program and knows nothing about it.

Portrait of The Sweetheart of Sigma Chi 1. Her teeth are like the stars---they come out every night. 2. Her hair is like the night just before dawn---a good shampoo would turn it gray. 3. Her figure is like a geometrical design--- all angles and no curves. 4. Her eyebrows are like the crescent moon-- somtimes you can hardly see them. d 5. Her hair is as wavy as a lake---on acalm ay. 6. Her ears were a baby curiosity---she was two years old before her parents could tell if she would walk or fly. 7. Her feet would float on water---they're young gunboats. 8. Her nose is the object of much conver- sation---as prominent as F. D. Roosevelt. That's What You Think THE LADY IN RED was DANCING THE PRIZE WALTZ with the LONELY GON- DOLIER, IN CALIENTE when up walked SWEET LUCY BROWN who said to the gondolier, SUGAR PLUM, I'VE GOT A WARM SPOT IN MY HEART FOR YOU and IIM COUNTING ON YOU to be at the CASINO DE PAREE at ABOUT A QUAR- TER TO NINE, tonight when THE LIGHTS ARE LOW. Then says he THE LITTLE THINGS YOU USED TO DO are a bunch of garlic to me I'M A FUGITIVE from you so GO INTO A YOUR DANCE. Lucy answers, WITHOUT A MAN TO LOVE there's no MUSIC IN MY HEART. WHAT DO I HAVE TO DO to make you LOVE ME FOREVER? I NEVER HAD A CHANCE, said the gondolier.

Letters To The Editor I Dear Editor: Two weeks ago I noticed in your paper that a ten dollar fine should be charged upon all those feeding peanuts to the mem- bers of the band. We tried to correct this cause by buying our own peanuts and not accepting those thrown to us from the audience. When I picked up your last week's Tattler, I noticed that the same article appeared in it and we do not know how to correct this unless we stop eating peanuts. Yours truly, C. Z. P. S. I believe that the audience mistook the band for monkeys. That is a bad optical illusion. . ' . Dear Editor: I have observed that a few of the foot- ball players, both varsity and lightweights, have been selling their extra tickets which they are given for their service on the team. It is proper that they should receive these tickets, but they should not be sold. By selling these tickets, they are depriving the school of the sales . E. S. Dear Editor: Congratulations to the power', which has noticeably aided in the decrease of speeders in Woodward's corridors. There are, of course, a few students who insist on running in the halls, but these are becoming very scarce. Have pupils at Woodward finally learned that the halls are not the proper place for track meets and relay races? F, Z, X. Henry Page Gives Jackets POLAR BEAR CUBS DEFEAT PAPOOSES Woodward Scores In First, Third Quarters For Second Win By trimming the Waite high lightweights 14-7 last Friday, Woodwardis Bear Cubs secured their first intra-city win. With their touchdown and successful place-kick in the first period, the Blue and White led at half-time 7-0. Utilizing a se- ries of passes, VVaite registered six points plus one for the extra point through aerial means. Aroused at the thought of losing the game, the young Bears marched to a touchdown, and a plunged-point to assume the lead which they maintained to the end of the tilt. Success of the team in this battle should be attributed to the sparkplugs of the backfield, Ted Szelegowski and Leo Bana- siak. This was the last game on the schedule of the cubs. s g 1 L if .YV feral. . Ace Keller, regular center, hurt his shoulder in the Libbey game and hasn't been able to scrim- mage for the past week. He may not be able to play in the Lima South game tomorrow. During a scrimmage with Waite last week, Ernie Gross banged up a shoulder, but it is hoped that he will be able to participate in tomorroW's tilt. Other boys on the injured list include Bob Root, with a sore side, and Lennie Lamont, who hurt his shoulder in the Libbey tilt. This column may seem to be an alibi but it is nojoke to the players who are injured. Ticket To Central Tussle Given As Prize In Contest You optimistic pessimists are offered a chance to win a pass to the Woodward-Central tussle, the last game of the 1935 season, to be played at Central next Saturday. All that is required is that you write the score in the blanks provided below and put the slip in the box which will be found in front of the Tattler of- fice. Chuck,' Kosbab was the winner of a ticket to the tilt to- morrow because of his almost perfect guess of the Woodward- Libbey score. This contest will be continued throughout the basketball sched- ule and we hope the optimists will win every time. Woodward ............,........................... Lima South ........... ....

THE WOODWARD TATTLER WOODWARD, LIMA PLAY TOMORROW W o o d w a r d Bears Attempt To Duplicate Last Year's Win After their tough struggle with Libbey, Woodward's Polar Bears will be all set to go in their strug- gle with Lima-South's squad tomorrow. Woodward's luck has not been of the best this year, and the Bears' squad is after a duplication of last year's game which they won by a 14-0 score when Hiltman and Tschogl fig- ured in the scoring. Woodward, though meeting with very little success in the way of games won, will attempt to set next year's team out on the right foot by winning its remain- ing games. The Bears have steadily im- proved and during the last weeks have been working on their ma- jor weakness, defense on passes. As in their former games, the Woodward hopefuls will line up with Ace Kellerat the pivot po- sition and Bob Root and Bull,' Dawson at guards holding down the center of the line. Bill Whea- ton and Olen Borough or Bert Stewart will undoubtedly patrol the ground around tackle while Florian Tschogl and Danny Marok will be at the Hanks. Gus Schoonmaker,Woodward'sscrap- py quarterback, will be barking signals, and Red Hiltman and Ernie Gross will fill the halfback posts with Don Whiting playing at the fullback position. This is the squad which undoubtedly will take the field for the open- ing gun against Lima South. Lima South is not a tough team this year, and the game should be just the thing to put the Bears in trim for the Central game. -t..l.,. ., Girls May Bowl Woodward girls now have an opportunity to bowl at the Audi- torium Bowling Alleys on St. Clair Street for the same price as the boys, ten cents a game. They may bowl Monday after school. Mrs. Gozzolo, the pro- prietress, will be present at these times to give instructions. Central Beats Scottg Irish Rest Alone In Top Position Central climbed to the top of the heap in the city football race by defeating Scott 12-7 last week. The Irish have only one more city game this season, that being with the Polar Bears on November 23. Scott dropped into a tie wtih DeVilbiss for the second spot by its defeat while Waite is close behind in the fourth position. The standings follow: Te am W L T Pct.

Hanham Coaches Passing, Dribbling, In First Week's Practice, Basket- Ball Schedule Announced Preparing for the 1935-36 basketball season, Coach Homer Hanham called practice during the latter part of this week. Elim- ination practices were held for juniors and seniors on Wednesday, for sophomores on Thursday, and for freshmen this afternoon. Until the football season ends, practice will be held but three times weekly. During these practices, the fgndamentals will be tau ht. The T HANHAM TO COACH BASKETBALL TEAM Homer Hanham After a very successful regime as reserve basketball coach, Homer Hanham will take over the reins of the varsity squad with confidence that he cn pro- duce a winning team for Wood- ward as he has many Veterans left from last year. The reserve coaching position vacated by Homer Hanham will be filled by Art Smith. Varsity Beats Waite Woodward's varsity s q u a d atoned, in some measure, for their defeat at the hands of Waite by ending up on the long end of a 19-13 score in a practice game with the Indians last week. To Members Of Bear Band Thanks to Henr y Page, the Woodward band will be provid- ed with thirty-six blue and white jackets. Waite and Scott are the other recipients of these accesso- ries. Other high schools who alrea- dy have similar outfits will not be given jackets. In all probabilty the jackets will be worn first at the Central game, November 22. Seniors Win The girls' soccer tournament victory has been awarded to the Seniors whose manager is Ellen Follas. Team lists must be handed in to the gym office by Tuesday, November 19, as the volleyball tournament is ready to begin. Any girl working for a letter must belong to a volleyball team to be eligible for an award. g will include passing, dribbling and shooting for the first week. Last year the Polar Bears, un- der the tutelage of Rol Bevan, placed second in the city race. They were sectional winners, but lost out in the district meet at Findlay. Members of last year's squad returning for competition this season are Florian Tschogl, Joe Hiltman, Gus Schoonmaker, Orville Swantek, Walter Bojan- owski, Olen Boroughf, and Paul Kornowa. Alex Rapp, formerly a star St. Johns forward, entered now as a senior at Woodward, will be eligible for active competition when the Polar Bears take the floor against their first oppon- ents. Holland invades the Polar Bear gym on December 6 to open a 15 game schedule and Blissfield comes here on the following Fri- day. The first city opponent Woodward meets is Scott on January 10 in the Collingwood Avenue gym. Waite entertains the Polar Bears four days later in another city tilt. The schedule follows: December 6 Holland Here December 13 Blissfield Here January 10 Scott There January 14 Waite There January 17 Maumee Here January 24 St. Johns Here January 28 Libbey Here January 31 Central Here February 4 DeVilbiss Here February 7 Scott Here February 14 Waite Here February 18 St.Johns There February 21 Libbey There February 25 Central There February 28 DeVilbiss There Girls' W Club To Sponsor Gobblers' Wobble Friday Presenting their third annual dance, the Girls' W club will sponsor the Gobbler's Wobble on Friday evening, November 22.

In former years this event has been a presentation ofthe Girls' Athletic League but since this club has merged with the Girls' W club it is being given by that organization. Furnishing danceful ditties from 8to 11:p.m. will be the duty of the Roosevelt Rythm Ralers. Waite Invites W Girls The Girls' W club of Waite high school is inviting the mem- bers of Woodward's W club to a splash party next Wednesday, November 20, at Waite. xx. AL HI COACH t .LL SPEAK HERE .zksteder Is Principal Speaker For Zet's Pep Meet oach Al Sacksteder of Cen- .l Catholic high school will .dress the Woodward student ody for the first time at the Jentral-Woodward mass meet- ing, Friday, November 22, spon- sored by the Zetalethean Literary society. A three-act play, The Great Football Murder Case, written by a committee of Bertha Payak, chairman, Frances Dunn, Bertha Jakcsy, Fern Striggow, and Mar- jorie Kuenle, will be presented. Enacting the principal roles in the play are Dorthy Kaszubiak, Victory, E lvina Smorowski, Woodward, Esther Gust, School Spirit, Carolyn Camp, the Judge, Julia Bennett, the Prosecuting Attorney, and Emily Braunsch- weiger, Virginia Schlievert, Henrietta Rump, Frances Dunn, and Dorthy Siebenaller playing the roles of Waite, Central, De- Vilbiss, Libbey, and Scott respec- tively. Coach Art Smith, Principal LaRue, and the captain of Cen- tral's team will also speak. Principal LaRue's Retentive Memory Shown In Geometry What can equal the memory of a principal? It was with deep and profound surprise that the stu- dents of Miss Amie Miller's sec- ond hour geometry class heard Principal Charles C. LaRue eluci- date on the new theorem with which the class was working. A strong will power was exercized by Miss Miller in eliminating the temptation to call upon Mr. LaRue for recitation. However that worthy gentleman volun- teered and not only proved the theorem but suggested a simpler method of solving it. So study your geometry, little ones, and some day you may be a principal! Candy Sale Planned To complete the sum necessary for the Saga pictures, the Senior, Junior, and Freshmen Friend- ship clubs will hold a joint candy sale. The profits of the sale will be divided between the clubs. Miss Dorothy Bardo, Miss Bet- ty Nelson, and Miss Rozella Woodrich are advisers of these clubs. Woodward Friendship Clubs To Hold Recognition Services Annual Friendship Recogni- tion services Will be held at Woodward Monday, November 25, at 2:30 p.m. This is the first time the ser- vices will be held at separate schools. Formerly a joint pro- gram was held at the Y.M.C.A. Mothers of Friendship Girls are cordially invited to attend. THE WOODWARD TATTLER I Minute Interviews Among the new teachers at Woodward this year we have Miss Grace Lawton. Before Woodward claimed this demure faculty member, Nathan Hale and Central High schools were the scenes of her teaching endeavors. A native Toledoan, Miss Law- ton attended St. Ursula's Acad- emy and Mary Manse College and has been teaching for nine years. Her hobby seemed to be swimming, but as the interview proceeded the informant re- marked, Perhaps I should have said that travel is my hobby, for I am exceedingly interested in it From the east to the west coast of Canada and the United States, fwith the exception of Florida and Californiaj, this young lady has gone. Europe also has been in her itinerary while the colorful countries of Palestine and Egypt were in- cluded in her foreign travels. Here at Woodward Miss Law- ton spends her time instructing freshmen in English. Judges Choose Eight Red Cross Essays In Contest Five best essays submitted in the Red Cross essay contest were by Rosalie Corman, Mildred De- Pew, and Virginia Schlievert, sophmores, and Sylvia Hirsch, and Paul Schimmel, freshmen. The three next best essays were by a senior, Julia Bennett, a junior, Elvina Smorowski, and a freshman, Raymond Sheline. Only five were to be selected but these eight were turned in to Miss Mary Hutchinson, head of the Englishdepartment in Toledo High Schools. The committee choosing the essays was composed of Miss Edith Murphy, Miss Frances Sivers, and Miss Hannah Shaw. Radio Dramatists Announce List Of Plays For Students Using their regular period, the Radio Guild Players will present several of Shakespeare's dramas for the benefit of high school students over the NBC-WJZ networks on Thursdays at 4:30 .m. p The schedule of plays that are to be given is Henry the IV,', December 12, Henry VI part I, December 19, part II, December 26, and part III, January 2, Richard III, January 9, and Henry VIII, January 16.

The Senior Hi-Y is the first organization to display its distinction which is a blue jacket with the crest of the club on the left side. Blower Causes Gas Blaze At Jones Jr., Is Repaired Here Under the direction of Paul Thomae, machine shop classes are repairing a blower which re- cently caused a blaze at Jones Junior high school. The blower, attached to the gas furnace in the machine shop, had been con- nected wrong to the motor, and sucked in gas instead of blowing out air, causing a fire, and, inci- dentally, a fire drill. Flames blew back around the gas valve, seri- ously hampering efforts to quell the fire, which, however, was put out. . Woodward Bowlers Lose To Scott And Vocational Members of Woodward's bowl- ing teams were unable to tumble the hardwoods consistently last Saturday with the consequence that they were defeated by Scott and Vocational. The bowlers, coached by Howard Phipps, will compete again this week and with the practice secured last Saturday should be able to make a better showing. -- HICK CONVENTION A GRAND SUCCESS City Slickers, Country Bump- kins An Attraction At Senior Affair While walking down the street the other p.m. I met the funniest couple imagineable! Following them, I soon found myself one of a crowd of bantering bumpkins--. they are known as our senior class any other time. Incidentally lrene Wilusz, fthe funniest singlel, grandma to you, was shyly posing for the benefit of a dandy from out of great-grand- father's album fEdith Schwabj, while Annie Mueller, that win- some little German country gal, peeked coyly out from her bon- net at Marion Blackman Cthese two were the most original cou- ple among the hicksl. Julian Maxwell had all city slickersf' put to shame when he strutted about the barn to be awarded the horse and cart for the most orginial single present. Man Hopkins had a busy eve- ning protecting fair Susabelle from this villian, upon investiga- tion, I found this funny twosome to be Julia Bennett and Rita Loerke, in the order of their appearance, incidentally they were voted the funniest couple at the hoe-down. Hi, farmer, do you belong to the 'Dog Patch Wonders,' the Excelsiorsf or maybe its the 'Hinky Dinks,' or 'Skunk Hollor' gang? No matter, its just a sam- ple of the jolly jargon heard at the annual senior hick convention which turned out to be the Jol- liest of Jolly barn dances that we've seen since the last one. Prof. McFarland Lectures Before Open Forum Group lThis is a resume of the lecture at- tended by Art Sievert and Walter Schulisch.J . Professor Edward W. McFar- land, substituting for H.C. Engel- brecht at the fifth lecture of the Progressive Open Forum series, spoke on A Day In Court For the Consumer and Taxpayer. Mr. McFarland expressed the opinion that the government should determine the price range which would best fit the pocket- books of the consumer. When- ever a man makes something every man can afford to buy, there will never be over produc- tion, the cause ofthe depression, observed Mr. McFarland. James Pollock, sociology in- structor, is sending Eugene Zyt- kus and Thaddeus Demski to hear Z. F. Calverton who will address the series November 22 with the topic of Sex and Econ- omicsf' On Lane Amateur Hour Florence Gotthelf, treasurer of the Glee club, will be heard Sun- day, November 24 at 1 p.m. on the Lane Foundation program for high school students.

Students To Get Two Days Vacation For Thanksgiving Two days of freedom for the students of this century provided by their forefathers whose main idea was freedom. Feasting and festivity will take the place of study and school Thursday and Friday, November 28 and 29, because of Thanksgiv- ing. TOWN HALL HEARS THEODORE DREISER Noted Am e r i c a n Novelist Relates Realistic Opinions They didn't believe in my phi' losophyg they told me---I had bet' ter quit. That was the way publishers dealt with an aspiring young writer who was later to become America's foremost novelist. To- day that man, Theodore Dreiser, is recognized as a true genius. When I was young, he recol- lected, I was taught that people were either radically right or radically wrong. These principles which were expounded to him in his child- hood constantly conflicted with his own experiences and obser- vations. He clerked for a firm in Chicago and was puzzled why the dishonest succeeded, he sold junk in a furniture store and observed how the dealer took ad- vantage of his costomersg he was a reporter on a crooked Chi- cago newspaper and saw how the owner of the paner ruled the underworld. 'iChurches do not influence life,', he claimed emphatically, disclosing his study of various re- ligious denominations in Chi- cago, they only fix it up for a few people who want to do right. Thinking that the rest of the United States differed from Chicago, he drifted from one large city to another, observing slums, politicians, and people. Exactly the same things were going on,'l he stated, the thieves were running the cities and the honest men were outside. And so he wrote of what he saw, fearlessly and forcefully. Again and again his books and articles were rejected. Still he kept on doggedly, Suddenly the American public's taste and opin- ions changed, and his books were enthusiastically accepted. Just as suddenly, Theodore Dreiser, the fighter courageous, was declared a genius. Junior High Students Visit Hotel,Edison Co., And Bank Miss Catherine Brown's Spring junior high class visited the Com- modore Perry hotel, the Toledo Edison company, and the Toledo Trust company last Friday. At the hotel the pupils viewed the pictures of Oliver Hazard Perry and the Battle of Lake Erie. New stoves and refrigera- tors were inspected at the Toledo Edison company, while pupils were shown equipment at the bank including two large safes, safety deposit boxes, canceled checks, and fifty and one hund- red dollar bills. 'STUDENT ASSEMBLY CHOSEN, BE- GINS WORK ASSISTING COUNCIL Pupils Who Were Selected Will Attend Meetings Once A Month To Suggest Opinions And Improvements In order to bring about a close contact between Student Council members and Woodward pupils and to report activities of the Student Council to the home rooms, one pupil from each class was elected to represent its room at the Student Council Assembly. This group meets once a month during third hour. At these meetings, suggestions for improvement and opinions on activities attempted are solicited from assembly members. Students from the first hour classes who were elected to the Cm' ' M ' -T ' 4' nqslllldent Council assembly are: TEACHER PRAISES JUNIOR RED CROSS Mrs. O'Brien To organize a Junior Red Cross in Woodward is my great- estintention at present, heartily stated Mrs. Mary OlBrien, in- structor of biology and physi- ology. Strange as it may seem we are the only high school in Toledo that has not already organized a Junior Red Cross. I sincerely want to teach Wood- ward students the real meaning of service, to give freely without being asked and to try to relieve the suffering of mankind about them. By forming an international correspondence with other na- tions, clubs recieve as gifts beau- tiful hand-wrought objects of art. In these curios are woven the dreams and hopes of the makers. Accompanied by Russel Jack- son and Juanita Tegtmeyer, Mrs. O'Brien attended a meeting of the Junior Red Cross at Scott high school where Miss Lewis, head assistant of the Junior Red Cross in Washington, was guest speaker.

T Hugh Montgomery The Tattler extends its deepest sym- pathy to the Huber family on the death of their youngest daughter, Beulah. Beulah, whose death occurred last Sunday, was a senior at Woodward. She is survived by three sisters and three brothers. Seniors will well remember Beulah's love of activity. It was this ceaseless flow of energy which brought about illness, and finally---death. Woodward mourns the loss of one of her best citizens. I Scholarships OODWARD'S chapter of the National . Honor society, which is composed of upperclass men of high grades and char- acter, his organized a scholarship com- mittee. This group has the task of investigating college scholarships available to high school students. Procuring this informa- tion, they will classify it and place it on file in E. L. Clark's ofiice. In the past, Woodward has graduated pupils of the highest merit, yet scholarships to universities other than our local estab- lishment have seldom been awarded to alumni of this school. With the possibility of scholarships at graduation, Woodward students will have an incentive to spur them on in the matter of classwork. The Ranks Are Growing A AST Friday another club performed be- fore the student body for the first time when the Automotive group, advised by Lawrence Nuber, successfully sponsored the Woodward-Lima mass meeting. Every year the same clubs generally take charge of pep meetings. To see other clubs taking an interest in these activities is gratifying. To The Team ISTEN team---nine out of every ten score guessers favor you. That means that nine out of every ten of us are squarely behind you. Whether you win or lose doesn't alter the fact that we're classmates. You're our team, and we're your loyal fans. Tomor- row you'll be fighting on the field, and Weill be cheering in the stands. , - ---The Student Body. The Saga staff adn-o-digg: that it has now obtained every senior's picture. Let's hope their order-book will contain every senior's signature. ll l IF I WERE PRINCIPAL Among Our Friends As the principal of Woodward, I would have pity on the dear students and request the teachers to call for each child every morning at 8:30 in a 1936 seven passenger Lincoln Zephyr. At regular intervals, an ice cream bar would be served to each pupilg and during classes, homework and recitation could be left for the teachers. Coffee and doughnuts would be served during third hour to hungry students, while instructors might receive a stick of gum and a nourishing glass of water. On movie days, when double features would be shown, all classes would be shortened twenty-five minutes. Every other Friday would be a holiday. Elevators, escalators, and stop and go sig- nals at hall corners would save shoe leather and collisions. I'd have all rooms in the vi- cinity of the cafeteria odor proofed' to ex- clude all mouthwatering aromas during fourth and fifth hours. I would shorten the football field so our boys would not have so far to run, and would install heaters, soft upholstery, and a roof over the bleachers. Flooding one of our courts would make a lovely swimming pool, and as an aid to good health, roller skating would be permitted in halls. Teachers could have their choice of a scooter or streamlined wagon for transporta- tion from room to room. When all of this was accomplished, then I could sit back and ad- mire the principle of the thing. i.-.l..ll. Amateur Hours Amateur hours are quite the go, They turn up everywhere. First Kate Smith, and then Town Hall, And schools---yes, even there. '4All right, all right comes to our ears, Three guesses who it is, He rings the gong Sometimes, does he, And repeats All right tsome fizzlf' So in Woodward High, we follow the crowd, To recognize talents unknown. And after auditions, and signed petitions, Their talents are still unknown.

Heavens Above i The signs of the Zodiac are always of interest to students, especially those whose heads are forever in the clouds. For in- stance, the sign of this month is Sagittarius, or the archer. This sign is effective from November 23 to December 20. People influ- enced by this phase of the Sun are always trying to make a hit. Could this sign be un- der which Beatrice Carter was born? Of course, we are only surmising. But take Aries, the ram, which is preva- lent from March 21 to April 19, always butting into other people's business. Of course, that couldn't be Benny Kaminsky. Not at all forgetting Cancer, the crab. We suspect a good many teachers of be- ing born under this sign which swings in the heavens from June 21 to July 21. One of the sweetest signs is that Capricornus, the goat, from December 21 to January 19. A bit stubborn, perhaps but on the whole very well liked. A different story is that of Gemeni, the twins. If you are born under this sign, from May 20 to June 20, you are apt to be a twin if anyone else in your family was born at the same time. All this starry stuff is making our heads whirl so we gotta say soooo long. See you when the Moon comes over the Mountain. Letters To The Editor To the Editor: In the English department, many times creditable original stories, paragraphs, and poems are written by the students. At the present, these interesting compositions are read and enjoyed by only a few,whereas, if published, the whole student body would be given this opportunity. Why canlt these outstanding pieces of literature be printed in the Tattler? The publications would furnish a means of re- cognizing the students of the English classes who are talented. It would also en- courage those pupils who are interested in literature. Humorous, spicy bits of work frequently written would add variety to the feature write-up. i I hope that sometime in the near future this type of work would appear in the Tattler. Sincerely? POLAR BEARS WIN FROM LIMA SOUTH Ernie Gross, Red Hiltman Lead Woodward To Second Win Woodward's Polar Bears swamped Lima South under a deluge of touchdowns to register a decisive 52-0 win last Saturday. Many players figured in the scoring with Don Whiting, dim- inutive fullback, pushing over the first touchdown and a point after by his plunging. In the second quarter, Red Hiltman duplicated Whitingis feat, Ernie Gross scored on a line buck, and Orville Swantek added six on a sweep around end. This put Woodward ahead 26-0 at the half. Bob Root, left guard, took up the scoring in the second half when he recovered a Lima fumble in the air and ran for a touch- down. Gross added six points and Hiltman one to boost the total in the third stanza. Florian Tschogl scored the only touch- down scored on a pass in the final quarter and Red followed it with a kick for the extra point. The final score was made by Simon Hodge,a back who saw service for the first time. Many entered active competi- tion for the first time last Satur- day. They were Harry Zaremba and Leonard Nareski, ends, Al Greenwood and Charles Kotow- ski, tackles, Ray Stoykoff and Bob Shuff, guards, and Chuck Hoskins and Simon Hodge, backs. Five Players Score Initial Touchdowns Against Lima After a scoring spree of eight touchdowns in the game last week, the individual scores of Woodward players were changed considerably and may be found below. Gus Schoonmaker, quar- terback, is in sixth place for in- dividual scoring honors of the city and leads the Bear counters with 24 points while Hiltman is second with l6. TD PAT Total Schoonmaker 4 0 24 Hiltman 2 4 16 Gross 2 O 12 Swantek 1 1 7 Whiting 1 1 7 Tschogl 1 0 6 Root 1 0 6 Hodge 1 0 6 Pelczarski 1 0 6 Miss Komarowski Rolls 147 To Win Girls' Bowling Meet With a score of 147, the high- est made when fourteen Wood- ward girls competed, Regina Ko- marowski won the bowling meet last Monday after school. This was the first time she ever bowl- ed. Miss Catherine McClure and Miss Nettie Claytion, instruct- ors, kept score. Any girl interested in this sport may bowl with the Wood- ward group any Monday after noon at the Auditorium Bowling Alleys. I THE WOODWARD TATTLER B Q-FKCT . ?iiZ.--,..,,,a.LiDn Ray Stoykoff, so pho more guard, was kicked in the back in the Lima game and had to be helped off the field. It is hoped that the injury will be better by game time tomorrow. Homer Hanham, assistant foot- ball coach, did not join the rest ofthe coaching staff on the Wood- ward bench as he was officiating at the Waite-Libbey game. Ace Keller was not in uniform last Saturday because of his in- jured shoulder which has not had time to heal, but he will be able to play in the Central tilt. Because Lima South also wore blue jerseys, the Polar Bears changed to their old white ones during the half. The blue jerseys were quite confusing as the news' papers gave Olen Boroughf credit for Bob Root's touchdown. Robert Shuff, Tattler reporter, was the first member of the Tat- tler staff to ever participate in a varsity football game when he competed in the Lima South tussel. Oscar Sear, Not Related To Sears Roebuck, Wins Ticket Oscar Sear, that chubby little rascal of football near fame, believed in his team mates in-so- far that he struggled and toiled and triumphed above all in conjecturing the nearest correct score, that is to say, 39-0. Even his unbounded faith could not encompass 52 points. I am gratified and, what is more, highly pleased, said Woodward, to observe that most of the entries placed Wood- ward on the long and of their score guessing last week? It is a matter of debate as to what will be the guessing on tomorrow's contest of skill and science. Fill this out and you know the rules: into the box in front of 122 before nightfall sometime. The winner will see the first basket- ball game with Holland, Decem- ber 6, as a guest of the Tattler. Woodward ........................................ Central ........... Name. .....,....... Home Room ....................... ......... Many Candidates Report For Initial Cage Practice Woodward's basketeers, due to the large number of candi- dates who reported when elimi- nation practice was called, will not be ready for regular workouts for another week. Coach Homer Hanham is still working with the grid squad and has been able to do little work on the hardwood. Dave Weisberg will continue giving the cage candidates pointers. WOODWARD POLAR BEARS MEET CENTRAL TOMORROW AFTERNOON Blue And White Expects To Use Passes To Repeat Last Year's Victory, Teams To Wage Battle On Scott Gridiron b Their overwhelming victory over Lima South last week should give the Woodward gridders the confidence they need to duplicate last year's 7-0 win over Central when they meet the Irish on the Scott field tomorrow afternoon for the only city contest of the week. The game was changed to expected. Scott's field as a large crowd is As both teams .depend much on their aerial attack, the air should be full of flying balls which will provide plenty of thrills for - i'0the spectators. Central has had Light weight Football Team l Ends Season With 27-0 Win Coach L. C. Clark's lightweight squad finished up its season last Friday with a decisive victory over the Bradner, Ohio, high school eleven of 27-0. The line clicked exceptionally well on the defense and made four touchdowns. The scorers were Keesecker, on a reverse, from the twenty-five yard, Bolback, around end for 40 yards, Chmilkowski, on a plunge, and Cochran, a pass over center for the final coup. Thirty of the cubs were used in the game which consisted of ten-minute quarters. Last Tues- day half of these boys moved up' to the varsity for the remaining week or two of practice. College Of Wooster Holds Football Day November 23 Woodward students will be guests of Wooster College at the sixth annual High School Foot- ball Day which takes place on Saturday, November 23, at Wooster, Ohio. Students attending will be received in the recreation rooms of Douglass Hall, freshman men's dormitory. After visits to the Wooster campus, classrooms, library, chapel, laboratories, and dormi- tories, the guests will be ad- mitted to the stadium for the Baldwin Wallace and Wooster game at 2:15 P. M. and a reception will follow. Gayle Lathrop of Wooster an- nounced that Visitation Day will be held March 21 at which time many scholastic events will be conducted. ...1 .1 Effects Of Tobacco, Alcohol Told To Juniors And Seniors 'iThere are eighteen different poisons in tobacco, stated Rev. Virgil Finell when he spoke to juniors and seniors on the Effects of Alcohol and Tobacco l on Youth, last 'Thursday at the junior class meeting. Rev. Finell, who has given 2000 lectures and has spoken in' 41 states and 4 Canadian prov- inces, said, Almost no famous athletes use tobacco and if their names appear on cigarette adver-1 tisements itis because they were 5 paid large sums of money by thel tobacco companies. a most successful season this year, Woodward offers the only obstacle between them and their first city championship. Perz, halfback, will take care of the passing, while Zilba, the shifty halfback, will cause plenty of trouble with his running. The rest of the Central backfield -is made up of Czarnecki at full and Hentges calling the signals. As was the case last year, the Polar Bears are given little chance for a win over Central, but the team is very much improved since it played its first game against Fort Wayne and may be able to turn the tables as it did last sea- son. Coach Art Smith has been drilling the team on defense against passes which will be very much needed, as this has been the Bears' weakness throughout the season, and the Central team uses plenty of passing plays. The Bears will probably line up in the following way, Tschogl and Brott at the flanks, Bor- ough and Wheaton at the tackle positions, Root and Dawson will take care ofthe guards, and Kell- er, center. The backfield will be composed of Hiltman and Gross at halves, Whiting at full, and Schoonmaker calling signals. -i-g-1-.i- Waite, Scott, And DeVilbiss In Tie For Second Position By virtue of its 18-7 victory over Libbey, Waite forged into a second place tie with Scott and DeVilbiss. E ach team has two wins, one loss, and one tie game. Central, Scott, DeVilbiss, and Woodward tackled out of town teams but will resume inter city competition either tomorrow or Thanksgiving Day. Red Fielder Leads Bowlers To Three Consecutive Wins Red Fielder led the National League in individual scoring last week with games of 175, 190, and 162 for a total of 527. As teams, Woodward's bowlers had fair success in their games when the Nationals toppled Waite in three consecutive games, but this was nullified by three defeats in the American league at the hands of St. John's. The standings find Woodward fifth in the National league with three won and three lost, and tied with Central for sixth position in the American league with one lwon and five lost. THE WOODWARD TATTLER PLAY SHOP TO GIVE FIRST PRODUCTION Violin Maker Of Cremona Scheduled For Third Hour Mon. Members of the student body will have an opportunity to see The Violin Maker of Cremona conference hour Monday, No- vember 25. The play takes place in the Italian town of Cremona, where Ferarri, portrayed by Harry Mil- ler, announces a contest to de- termine the master violin maker. As the prize he promises the hand of his daughter Giannina, Frances Dunn, and an appren- ticeship in his shop to the win- ner. His secretary, Giovanni, is enacted by Wayne Romer. San- dro, William Phifer, a handsome young man, and Filippo, Robert Keiter, a hunchback, are two of the contestants who love the girl and try to win her hand. This production, presented by the Play Shop and directed by Miss Dorothy Warner, adviser, and Steven Korecki, student di- rector was given at the senior class meeting, last Tursday. Board Of Education Gives Printshop Electric Punch Board of Education has provid- ed the Woodward printshop with a new electric punching machine to punch holes in paper. This machine punches five hundred sheets in the same time three could be done by hand. The in- creasing amount of work turned out by this group made this piece of equipment necessary. ...1-- g Our Mistake Due to an error which oc- curred in the grade story ap- pearing in the November 8th issue of the Tattler, the names of Gladys Dimke and Dorothy Smith, seniors, who received 4 A's, were omitted. . Honor Society Head Selects Scholarship Research Group With Nathan Schwartz and Aaron Novick as chairmen, the newly appointed Honor Society committee will conduct a re- search covering all information about neighboring and national colleges which should be useful to any Woodward student wish- ing to enter. These records will be kept on file in E. L. Clark's office. Alice Ferris will secure infor- mation about Toledo U, Joseph Meyer, Ohio Northern, Dorothy Smith, Wittenberg, Jack Bate- sole, Ohio Wesleyan, Lillian Churski, Heidelberg, Sam Lev- ine, Oberlin, and Charlotte Es- sick, Bowling Green. Ohio State has been charged to Nathan Schwartz, and Case, to Aaron Novick. Reports will be given at the next Honor So- ciety meeting. I Minute Interviews I Fortunate was Woodward on the day when David McMurray entered its stately portals. This very likable teacher, al- though one of the newest in our school, is fast gaining the .admi- ration of the student body The name Ypsilanti always quickens Mr. McMurray's pulse for it was there that he majored in physical education and mi- nored in English. After leaving his alma mater. with a B. S degree, he held a position as assistant coach at Tiffin Junior Order. Here at Woodward he is mak- ing his first attempt at teaching English and feels that both he and the students are enjoying the course. Assisting Art Smith and Homer Hanham with the varsity, he holds a position on our coach- ing staff. In the coming cage season he will coach the reserve team. When asked his impression of Woodward Mr. McMurray re- plied, I like the attitude of the student body toward their work and teachers. They have also shown a fine spirit toward the team in spite of the off season. Finals In Woodward Archery Tournament To Be Arranged Weather conditions permit- ting, the finals in the archery tournament will be held in the near future. Anyone interested in archery was entitled to compete in this tournament. Elimination has brought the competitors down to the following people: Norma Jean Allen, who had a score of 62 lfourteen arrows out of eight- een hit the targetlg David Dewood, 59, Walter McVickers, 52, Lucian Lupinski, 50, Edward Pfefferle, 49, and Marietta May, 19. The tournament will deter- mine the person who is the champion archer of Woodward. Eighteen arrows will be shot by each contestant with the highest final score winning. Advanced Art Group To View Murals At Commodore Perry Miss June Anderson's fourth year art students will visit the Commodore Perry Coffee Shop today after school to study the murals illustrating the history of Ohio. The advanced art classes are painting the murals representing club insignia for the club room. Girls Attend Meet Nine members of the Junior Friendship club are planning to attend the Inter-club council Monday, November 25, at the Y. W. C. A. at four o'clock. These girls are Ethel Schiedler, Ellen Jane Scott, Charlotte Shug- arman, Bettie Blankenstein, Em- ma Berdue, Marcella Patrick, Virginia Meyers, Mae Kaseman, and Ethel Crane. POLISH LIT SOCIEI Y TO PRESENT COMEDY Mirthful Play Scheduled For Presentation Tuesday Polish Literary society, under the direction of L. J. Robie, will presenta one act comedy entitled Unlearned Servants, during conference hour, Tuesday, No- vember 26. With a setting in a Polish American home, the plot con- cerns the difficulties that the servants encounter while work- ing in America. Included in the cast are Gertrude Sudek, Vir- ginia Ignatowicz, Aurelia Kuch- arski, Ursula Sobiniak, Jeanette Czerniewski, Albert Porozinski, Victor Sankovich, and Julia Kot- owicz. Eddie Urban and Virginia Novak will provide the musical entertainment. The play is planned to be pre- sented also at Falcon's Hall, Sun- day afternoon, December 1, be- fore a gathering sponsored by the Central Committee. Drum Major Doldrums ' Toledo's seige of soupy weather not only makes it unpleasant for the football team to get in shape for the Central game, but affects other lines of practice as well. If you see a tall, dark soph- omore wandering over the city's darkened areas with a Sherlock Holmes magnifying glass, and a worried expression, it's probably Dan Kryzaniak, drum major. Lately he's been doing just such a thing, hunting a dry molecule of ground to chase his band around on. It begins to look as if thcy'll have to be towed in mud scows. Two Seniors Hear Lecturer Tonight At Forum Meeting Thaddeus Demski and Eugene Zytkus will hear V. F. Calverton speak on Sex and Economics at the Progressive Open Forum in the Roi Davis Auditorium at 8:30 p.m. tonight. Mr. Calverton, editor of The Modern Monthly and author of The Liberation of American Lit- erature, is a psychologist. an- thropologist, and sociologist of national repute. A brilliant lec- turer, he has debated with many prominent Americans. James Pollock, sociology in- structor, has selected these stu- dents to attend. Theater Guild Members See J. Staiger In 'Young Woodley' Accompanied by Miss Dorthy Kellog, several members of the Little Theater Guild attended the presentation, Young Wood- ley, in which Jane Staiger had the leading role, last Thursday, November 21. The play was giv- en by the University of Toledo Dramatic Association in the Hen- ry Doerman Theater. Jane was vice-president of the Little Theater Guild last year. 'STUDENTS FooLED BY PHOTO- REFLEX Camera Surprises Seniors With Its Beautiful Portraits Through that new innovation, Photo-refiex, we will now give you a comparison between a photograph of then and one of now--- When grandma was a young- ster she was very uncertain as to what the results would be---if she opened her mouth to smile the picture was sure to resemble a fish out of water, and if she looked solemn it was a near relative to a dying calf---in the end the picture was pretty fishy because the artist falways give the photo- grapher the benefit of a doubtl put in his own idea of how you looked in the camera. Now---smiling seniors just look into a mirror---lo and behold, when the proofs are completed you expect the Virginia Bearss, Eugene Weed, Juanita Mitchell, Henry Lynn, or who have you to tell you all about it.

Freshmen English Students Do Creative Work For Class In connection with the study of Robert Louis Stevenson's Treas- ure Island, Miss Dorothy Bardo's seventh hour freshman English class presented a dem- onstration of creative work on Monday, November 18. Songs with original words and music were written by Dorothy Swaya, Vivian Galliers, and Ray- mond Sheline, Jr. Bonnie Jean Zirwes and Robert Smith read original poems. The remainder of the program consisted of reading letters, themes, and bi- ographies by other members of the class. Virginia Midas presid- ed as chairman.

A. when he spoke to them on The Evolution of the American Newspaper in the school cafeteria. This interest- ing fact has been proved many times, I have canvassed the read- ers of our paper for this informa- tion. He informed his audience that, with modern printing devices, exactly two minutes and forty, seconds after the last bat is drop- ped in a world series game, before one-tenth of the crowd has filed through the gates, the paper bear- ing the final score and story of the game are selling on the streets. Two Former Woodwardites Remain in Sport's Lime Light Web Etter, former Woodward coach, holds the record for high scoring in Ohio. During his play- ing career at Wittenberg, Web had two very successful seasons, the first he totaled 116 points, and the next year he garnered 160 points. Yet Woodward's most famous graduate athlete is not Etter but Fred Merkle who is famous for the much publicized bonehead play which he made while with the New York Giants ina World Series game. He failed to touch first base after he had hit a home run, and thus lost the World Series for the Giants. , , :V '- A glllili fififilliii ' Ni THE TURKEY'S LAMENT f W i?- ll ' ' -Wt 'ff I X il I R K1'1'lL,2,,'-' ks Thomas Gray .

Cagers May Appear In New Regalia In Coming Contests Woodward's Athletic associa- tion is attempting to raise funds for the purchase of new basket- ball equipment consisting of a full set of suits and knee pads. So be not surprised, you who attend the Woodward cage tilts if the basketeers appear before you in strange regalia, for it will, not mean that they have deserted their alma mater but merely that money enough will have been 1 found to buy them new suits.

Hen- selman addressed members of the Woodward Alchemist socie- ty last Wednesday after school. Interested physics and general science students were guests. Mr. Henselman stated that the glass industry is undergoing the most change in research activity of all industries. Glass was first discovered by the Phoenicians who heated soda and sand to form it. In the manufacturing of pl a t e glass, the fundamental principles are almost the same although the advanced is mech- anical. Sand, silica, soda ash, and lime are used in the making of it. The Libbey-Owens special- izes in its making. Among Mr. Henselman's col- lection of the different kinds of glass which he displayed was the Tuf-Lax, the strongest of all and most difficult to break.

I Hugh Montgomery The Last Game LAST SATURDAY marked the close of the 1935 football season. The Central game meant much to Wood- ward. To the student body it meant belief-- belief that the team would show the world what it, the student body, already knew: that it was a fighting team, capable of making glorious either victory or defeat. To the varsity it meant the finish. And they were out there on that field to glorify that finish with clean, hard football. And on the bench sat Schoonie. Un- able to play his last game, he had the satis- faction of watching his team-mates finish the season fighting courageously. We'll Work Overtime THATS the reply Hugh Montgomery gave when asked whether he would print the Tattler this week. The printshop boys made good his prom- ise. Despite the fact that their working time was cut exactly in half, the Tattlers rolled off the press this afternoon. The staunch student support at the Central game is one kind of school spirit. This is another. A Literary Supplement IN THE Letters to the Editor column last week a letter was printed inquiring whether it would be possible for the Tattler to print literary contributions submitted by students outside the staff. Believing that student literary incli- nations should be encouraged, the Tattler is planning a literary supplement to be published later on in the year. A committee chosen from the Tattler staff and the seventh hour newswriting class will be in charge. Students with a yen for writing will now have the opportunity to see their literary efforts, if accepted, in print. Be Thankful That You are not a millionaire.

Yet these people, intensely religious as they were, felt the spirit of a munificent and a merciful God who had spared them and provided the means of subsistence. Gratefully they set apart a day after the harvest time as a time of Thanks- giving and prayer. Living as we do amid the luxuries of the present era, it is almost impossible for us to catch the spirit of these ancestors of ours. Today the poorest citizen of Toledo has a far greater number of the comforts of life than any one of that little Pioneer group. We are supposed to get our lessons for present living from men and events that have gone before. Our dim and uncertain peering into the fu- ture can be only by conjecture and the faint light thrown over our shoulders from the past. But we gaze upon the heroic figures of these Pilgrim Fathers, are thrilled for a mo- ment by their indomitable spirit, then shrug our shoulders and pass on. Have we lost the spirit of these men of old? What does the Thanksgiving which they originated mean to you? To me? Let's forget our cares, and our griefs. Let us for very shame cease grumbling over petty disap- pointments for this one day at least, let us gratefully remember some of the countless blessings that have been showered upon us throughout the year. There IS something for IIgOU to be thankful for on Thanksgiving ay. Notes To The Lovelorn Dear Kernel, Every time I take Lula Belle Holbrook out once, she never goes out with me again.

We have a fine orchestra and chorus, yet not enough of this talent is ready to display itself in the weekly radio broadcast for high school students. The other Toledo high schools are represented every week, with not only one, but two or three talented pupils. Does it mean that we haven't courage to stand up before the microphone and show our talent to the audience as well as to the pupils and teachers of Woodward High? Imagine my disappointment when on November 3, there was no pupil to repre- sent the spirit of Woodward. On the other Sundays there were at least one or two. Come on! Wake up and show them that we have plenty of talent here too. Sincerely yours, - G. M. S. THE WOODWARD TATTLER POLAR BEARS LOSE LAST TILT OF YEAR Central Downs Woodward 12-73 Wins City Grid Championship Woodward lost a football to Central, the city cham- last Saturday by 12-7. But you have only part of the of Woodward, the under playing the best game of game pions, there story dogs, the year. The other part of the story includes savage tackling, Boroughf running a kickoff back so fast that when he was tackled, turned a complete somersault in the air to land on his back, and that the game being played with- out quarterback Schoonmaker and center Keller. Gus was forbidden to play by the doctor because ofa slight case of appendicitis, and Keller's shoulder was still too sickv to allow him to enter the game. Stack substituted for Schoon- maker, and Hiltman called the signals. There were only two substitutions in the whole gruel- ing contest, Swantek for Stack and Marok for Brott. Otherwise the usual lineup was presented with Richardson playing center. In the first quarter Hiltman and Perz engaged in a punting duel, Perz outdistancing Hilt- man, but the latter ran the ball back to make up the difference. Root, Tschogl, Boroughf, and Whiting led the Bears in show- ing Central a bit of tackling. All the touchdowns were made on passes, Hiltman running forty yards to score in the last quarter and then kicking the point. Swantek thrilled the crowd with the longest run of the game, a fifty yard dash after kickoff to the twenty-five yard line. Twelve of the thirteen players are seniors, Stack being the only one to return next year. Sixteen 'W' Club Members Attend Waite Swim Party Brrr, chilly, no chili. A warm- ing repast of chili con carne was served to the sixteen W girls of Woodward who attended the splash party given by the girls' W club of Waite. Those in the social swim were Gladys Dimke, Jean King, Viola Jones, Ellen Follas, Betty Dalzell, Betty Jane Taylor, BettyCeleste, Sophie Kud- linski, Emily Braunschweiger, Aileen Vizneau, Marcella Pat- rick, Beatrice J arzynski, Annie Mueller, Regina Komorowski, Clyda Lee Ridenour, and Jane Fink. Both girls' gym instructors, Miss Steel Cornwell and Miss Catherine McClure, attended the affair. Davis Enters St. John's Dick Davis, former grid and cage star, has entered St. J ohn's College and is considered one of the leading guard candidates. Dick will be eligible for basket- ball, as St. Johns does not abide by freshman rule. . GROUP OF WORKERS ASSIST C. M. MEEK 'Group Is Efficient, Depen- dable,' Declares Manager Twenty-five students, unknown to the student body, have assist- ed Faculty Manager Clyde Meek, at his work as head of the Wood- ward Athletic Department. These pupils work as guards, ticket salesmen, and clerical workers. Mildred DePew, Ruth Linker, Beatrice Jarzynski, Ruth Mayer, Virginia Bocian, Genevieve Toch- man, Viola Jones, and Bertha J akcsy are listed as clerical work- ers spending many an hour tak- ing care of tickets to all kinds of affairs and checking attendance. Running the scoreboard, put- ting up and taking down of the canvas, and guarding the outer fence around the football field are the duties of Chester Chelminski, Leonard Grochowski, Walter Baranowski, Marion Sutton, Teddy Krempa, Joe Mista, John Delikat, Anthony Boczkowski, Stanley Mista, Harry Zielinski, and Al Porazynski. Annette Veller, Harriett Shea, Kathryn Masta, Lois Whiting, Betty Loudenslager, and Lois Smith sell tickets for movies as their bit of work for the Athletic Department. As a reward for their services, these people re- ceive activities tickets. Mr. Meek also hires Angla Grachek as his stenographer. Discussing these people in an interview, Mr. Meek stated, This is an efiicient and very depend- able group. Cagers To Take Trip Out of a conference between Clyde Meek, Woodward athletic director and the representatives of Fremont St. J oseph's, came news worthy of a bit of rejoicing by Woodward cagers. This bit of news is the scheduling of a tilt between the basketeers of Wood- ward and those of St. J oseph's on the Fremont hardwood. As the schedule stands, this is the only game scheduled for an out of town floor. Henry Slawinski Wins Free Ticket To Holland Cage Tilt The football season ended successfully for one Woodward student when he concocted the exact score to the Central-Wood- ward tilt to gain a pass to the basketball game with Holland. The recipient of the ducat to the initial cage battle is Henry Slawinski of Room 329 who en- tered the score of 12-7 on his blank. At the termination of the grid season, it is found that boys dominated the guessing with five boys winning to one girl. Does this mean that girls are less in- terested in sports than boys or that boys have more natural ability? Maybe the basketball season, will tell. . H TWENTY-ONE BOYS END GRID CAREERS 15 Drop From Athletic Circle Six Will Play Varsity Basketball Curtains rang down on the high school football career of twenty-one Woodward boys last Saturday. Fifteen of these termi- nated their period of participa- tion in a major sport while six will play on the Polar Bear bas- ketball team. Those who are dropping from the Woodward athletic circle are Ace', Keller and Irish Richard- son who played at center, Bob Root, Bull Dawson, and Gene Fielders, the boys who controlled the guard positions, Bill Whea- ton, Bert Stewart, Charles Ko- towski and Roger Schultz are the tackles and Don Whiting, Lennie Lamont, and Ed Prysmierski were performers in the backfield. Florian Tschogl, an end, Olin Boroughf, a tackle, and Gus Schoonmaker, Red Hiltman, Orville Swantek and Ernie Gross, all backfield men, will probably fill positions on the cage team: Along with these boys Ray Parker and l'Wiggs Leininger, senior managers who have helped the coaches and players in taking care of the equipment. The cage season will end their term as student managers. Miss Hazelton To Help Plan Unique Thanksgiving Feast Thanksgiving! That word cer- tainly means a lot. To children it means turkey, cranberries, pumpkin pies, candied sweet potatoes, stuffing, and everything else that goes with it. It's a typi- cal American Thanksgiving din- ner, but think of going to a din- ner where every course repre- sents a different nationality! Miss Blanche Hazelton, cook ing instructor, is a guest and is helping the hostess prepare the menu for this dinner which will be given in honor of visiting pro- fessors. The host, Dr. Krishna, is a Hindu, the hostess is Hungari- an, and the guests are German, Austrian, Mexican, Hindu, and American. It sounds like the League of Nations, but with such a combination of guests and foods, it will undoubtedly prove to be an immensely interesting dinner.

With many experi- enced players from last year back again, he hopes to produce a team that will give the other city teams plenty of competition. The cage squad will be all set to go when they meet the Holland team here on December 6. Some of the candidates who have had previous experience are: Tschogl, Bojanowski, Hiltman, Swantek, Schoonmaker, Boroughf, Kudlin- ski, and Kornowa from last year's varistyg Gross, Waite, Sterling, Toper, Dorf, Hodge, and Goss from the reserves, and also Alex Rapp who played formerly with St. Johns. When Dave McMurray, re- serve coach, called practice last Monday he found these candi- dates who had experience on last year's freshman squad: Hoskins, J aswicki, Miller, Greenwood, Sze- lagowski, Stack, Klocko, Erd- man, and Bishop. The reserve cagers will open their season the same night as the Varsity when they meet the Holland lightweight team. L. J. Robie, replacing Red Zylka, will coach the freshman squad, the purpose of which is to provide a chance for the first year candidates to gain experi- ence. Woodwfg Mentors Turn Efforts Into Other Fields Coaches of Woodward will re- ceive no rest this year as Homer Hanham takes over the reins of thevarsitybasketballcoach, Dave McMurray works with the re- serve cagers, and L. J.Robie as- sumes control of the freshmen b a s k e t e e r s. These versatile coaches have a good record to live up to as the varsity finished in second place in the city league and the reserves and freshmen topped their respective leagues. While Coaches Hanham, Mc- Murray, and Robie work with the basketball players, Art Smith will keep his gridders in the best of physical condition with wres- tling and boxing included in their work, and when track season rolls around, Smith will also work with the tracksters. L. C. Clark will continue work- ing with the lightweight foot- ball players throughout the win- ter. Shop Note . Ray Wroble, Alex Czarnecki Bob Bollinger, and John Wilko- lek have been squaring the draft- ing triangles for William Rohr's classes. They will work next on O. M. Thompson's.

BROWN ADDRESSES TOWN HALL fEditor's Notej This is a resume of the Town Hall lecture reported by Dorothy Kaszubiak. This season Shakespeare is just as popular as Beatrice Lillie, stated John Mason Brown, hu- morous dramatic critic of the New York Evening Post, in his talk at the Town Hall assembly, Saturday, November 23, entitled Broadway in Review. Using his charming English accent, the critic added that the most important thing was to save Shakespeare from teachers and admirers who attempt to glorify him by changing his works from what he originally intended, but instead they are making things obscure. The famous Juliet whom Skakespeare had intended to be a young, beautiful girl has been played by fat, thin, tall, short, young, and old women and even some who looked able enough to carry the balcony around with them, declared Mr. Brown, much to the amusement of his listeners. Mr. Brown also confessed a great liking for Beatrice Lillie because of her ability to make her audience feel guilty for laugh- ing at her rolicking chatter thus giving the impression that she is not conscious of making laugh- provoking statements. The critic's explanation for the dislike of many people for such comedians is, Comic people are like spinach, either you like it or you don't. Joan Elmer, appointed by Miss Edith Murphy, senior English teacher, will attend the next lec- ture Saturday, November 30. Christopher Morley will talk on Literature, Pure and Simple. M. TWAIN HONORED BY 1st CENTENNIAL November 30 Is Birthday Of Famed Writer, Humorist Down through the years Tom Sawyer, Huckleberry Finn, and Becky Thatcher have come to us. They never grow old nor tire their audience, for they are human, youth personified, and youth never dies. These charac- ters have woven their way into the hearts ofQevery reader, a me- morial to their creator, Mark Twain. Born, on November 30, 1835, in a humble abode in Hannibal, Missouri, this universally loved author patterned the characters of his stories from acquaintances he made in his associations on and around the Mississippi river. Any person was copy to him. His keen imagination, humor, and knowledge of human nature were great assets in his profes- sion as a writer. Mark Twain was a humorous, animated conversationalist, he was known in every country for his wit, and was loved for his hu- man interest. A famous carica- turist once said of him that every- body in England enjoyed Mark Twain hugely until he really cracked a joke---and then, accord- ing to the artist, they were puz- zled. We remember and esteem this great artist of the pen. L. T. G. Scenery Committee Works On Christmas Play Ripping canvas, painting and sizing flats, making church win- dows, building bushes, that be- comes the duty of the committee on scenery who are working on the Little Theatre Guild's presen- tation of The Birds' Christmas Carol. The Guild is fortunate in hav- ing the help of a post-graduate and former member of the Little Theater Guild, Gus Brickman, who is supervising the work being done on this scenery. On his committee are Max Davis, Michael Jakcsy, and William Bloomer. Strictly Presidential Eugene Zytkus and Frederick Holtfreter, both esteemed ex- presidents of their class received a summons a week ago to appear in court as defendants in the case of school vs. ex-presidents. The plaintiff, Chester Zytkus, al- so president of his class adds still another presidential tinge to this affair. The three charges of malfea- sant and nonfeasant nature are: walking in the halls minus a hall permit, resisting arrest, and threatening an officer ofthe law. The above illustrates quite clearly what happens when a president meets two ex-presi- dents. 1 i I ....L-L111 . U.. OOD ARD T TTLER FOR THE h . H CLUBROOM SAGA Constantly, Consistently Constructwe FUND Z V01, V111 Toledo, Ohio December 6, 1935 NO. 12 PURCHASES DRAIN CLUB ROOM FUND Clubs Must Give Additional Money To Complete Work Although funds for the decora- tion of room 141 are nearly de- pleted, the club room is being transformed by the art classes from a dreary classroom into a room of fresh charm. Murals, illustrating VV'ood- ward clubs, the work of the fourth year art class, are being ap- plied to the walls. Instead of be- ing assigned regular class prob- lems, the third year art class is painting forty club room chairs a soft shade of green. Before these chairs are painted, the students must scrape and sandpaper each one. Students who are not en- gaged in refinishing the chairs, are making modernistic screens designed by Verna Greene, Joseph Cieka, Thomas Goldie, and William Klap. Additional contributions to the fund must be made in the near future, however, or the students will be obliged to halt work. A project carried on entirely by stu- dents, the decorations probably will be completed soon enough to give Woodward seniors an oppor- tunity to make use of the room. Recent contributions to the fund include five dollars from the Tattler staff, four dollars, Mu- nicipal club, and one dollar, Jun- ior Hi-Y. Woodward Mothers' Group Plans Yuletide Celebration The Mothers' club, at its next meeting December 11, at 1:30 in Room 141, will celebrate Christ- mas in a festive mood with the presentation of the second act of Wiggins' Birds' Christmas Car- ol by Little Theatre Guild mem- bers. Instead of holding the bake sale as originally scheduled,Jello will be distributed for sale. Library Collects S15 In commemoration of book week recently, the Library As- sociation collected an amount of 3515 selling miniature book tags. The money will be used to purchase books needed in the library. W Girls Usher At Games Each basketball game this season will have as usherettes six members of the Girls W club. These will alternate from game to game until all girls have had an opportunity to aid. C. M. Meek, director of athletics, an- nounced this system which is to work on the same principle as in former years. LOFFENDER TRIED IN SCHOOL COURT Efficiency Of Student Court Revealed In Recent Trial Here An innocent looking apple core dropped quickly to the tiles on Woodwaidis first 4 r thrid fic cr, is spotted by the eagle-eye of an efficient hall patrol. Scene two discloses a court room and jury with Elvina Somoicwski as the sober judge who demands the victim's name, offense, and a what-have - you - to - say -for-your self statement. The jury adjourns to decide on a verdict and to dish out penali- ties. Swiftly but silently, a group of home nursing students sur- rounds the victim who inevitably collapses with a melodramatic moan upon hearing his penalty. He is transported to his home room on a folding stretcher which is magically produced from the top hat of Judge Elvina And so, this being his first of- fense, he learned his lesson, and ever afterward when he chose to eat an apple, he ate the core, stem, seeds, and wrapping paper. But all kidding aside, Wood- ward has a Student Court and Council of which to be proud. Their work is carried on with a feeling of duty toward the school laws. When difficulties arise, they are straightened out with the help of two able advisers, Mrs. Mary K. Schuler and Frank Duvendack. L.T.G. Orchestra To Enter Finals For 55200 Lane Prize Receiving the largest amount of votes on the Lane Foundation program of November 24, the Little Theater Guild Playboys will compete with the other win- ners for the grand prize of S200 offered by the sponsors of the program. As the result of being one of the three winners of the amateur contest sponsored by the Municipal club November 18, the orchestra was given a chance to show its talent on the high school program. The twelve boys in the orches- tra are Robert Walterschied, Bruce Lumley, William Mund, Nick Verano, Daniel Krzyzaniak, Chester Zytkus, Arthur Bryw- czynski, Wilfred Soldwish, Eddie Urban, Delbert Bickel, Harry .Nakos, and Ed Berdelski. . Game Time Changed Freshmen basketeers will not play before the reserve and var- sity games as was the procedure last year. The first year men will probably tangle with opponents 'at four o'clock on various days. l This was an announcement of , the Toledo Athletic Manager. 'SAGA STAFF INAUGURATES A1xinUAiJ ,J?B!Y1Ll19I'EIPl12ENT SUEERIBERS LITERARY ADVISER Miss Bardo Miss Dorothy Bardo, freshman and sophomore English teacher, is supervising the literary work of the Saga. R. K. Sheline, dean of senior boys, has charge of fi- nances while Hugh Montgomery, print shop instructor, advises the printing of the book. R.K. Sheline Ill Woodward faculty and student body misses one of their best friends who is undergoing an ap- pendicitis operation in Robin- wood hospital. R.K. Sheline, dean of junior and senior boys and science instructor, will be con- fined to the hospital for at least ten days and will not return until after the Christmas vacation. Mr. Sheline's duties are being taken over by Mrs. Ila Reisler. Saga Begins Sales Campaign With Mass Meeting Monday Saga salesmen will be intro- duced at the double mass meet- ing Monday first hour. Seniors and freshmen will attend the first meeting while juniors and sophomores, the second. Principal LaRue will give a short talk, and Eugene Zytkus, Saga editor-in-chief, will discuss the various improvements and changes wrought in this year's annual. Art Klan Will Etch And Sell Christmas Cards This Year Following the traditions of previous years, the Art Klan has begun its work of making etched Christmas cards, to sell to the student body and faculty for two for 15 cents. Lucian Lupinski heads the committee in charge with ,the as- sistance of Rita Kasprzak Mar- tha Murzynski, and William Ko- walski. Raymond Rojek is president of the club with Miss June Ander- son advising. Class Teams Replace For- mer Home Room Agents The Saga sales drive, begin- ning Monday, brings to light many new innovations in this year's annual. The entire sales campaign will be conducted on a different plan, a card with five coupons attached being used for every purchaser. The coupons will be used as re- ceipts. A fifty cent deposit is required on all Sagasg and if the complete cost of one dollar and fifty cents is paid by a certain date to be announced in the fu- ture, the buyer's name will be printed in silver letters on the cover. D , tes for regular payments will be published in a later issue. flass Competition Each class will have tea ms with which to place orders instead of electing home room represent- atives as was done last year. Junior and senior class teams will consist of fifteen members while freshmen and sophomore teams will each have ten mem- bers. Each member of a team will have some mark of identification. Dorothy Kaszubiak and Joe Nachman, circulation and assist- ant circulation managers, are in charge. This year's Saga will be devoid of class histories, and the class prophecy and poem, although a story will run with the faculty pictures. It will, however, contain more action pictures than last year. Instead of enumerating the many clubs to which seniors be- long, a short discriptive state- ment will accompany each senior's picture. Attend Kiwanis Luncheon Principal C. C. LaRue, Rita Loerke, editor of the Tattler and Aaron Novick, assistant editor were guests at the luncheon held Wednesday, December 4, spon- sored by the Kiwanis club, at the LaSalle and Koch's.

Only too often, in striving to obtain an outstanding yearbook, siclgjools pay the price and acquire a heavy e t. ' Each year the Saga staii' has presented the student body with an annual the cost of which is in keeping with the community pocketbook. The fact that it is printed here at Woodward greatly reduces the expenses, while careful planning in other lines also helps to lower the cost. The 1936 Saga is economical and yet at- tractively modern. Wise students will or- der now. Do We Measure Up? AST MONTH the Scott Thistle an- nounced that two students topped the honor roll with 5-A cards. Woodward also listed honor students recently. Heading the group were two 6-A cards followed by thirteen 5-A cards. Often considered a technical school, an idea carried over from old Woodward Tech, Woodward has never really been recog- nized as having a very high scholastic standing. The proof is here. Contribute Now S A unified project, the clubs of Wood. ward have been decorating room 141 for use as a fitting place for affairs. Most clubs responded immediately with the needed financial aid. The art classes have furnished all the labor required. Yet there are societies at Woodward who have failed to make contributions. 'Woodward organizations are accorded a special privilege in keeping their money. At most high schools everything is turned over to school authorities who then supply the clubs with money when they see fit. We are indeed fortunate to do as we will with the money we earn. -With these facts in mind, the backward societies should realize the benefits of a club room by contributing now. i On Age It is the man who stops learning, whether he is 20 or 80, who is really old. --Henry Ford.

THE WOODWARD TATTLER AN CY THAT Because there are no keyholes in lockers, the Tattler Gossip Seeker now resembles a Chinaman ta result of looking through those convenient slits.J It isn't Christmas yet, but gifts are in order. One goes to the blonde in the little green hat. It's a compact! Our X-ray eye reads notes upside down, backwards, and wrong side out. This one says, To Ruth C. from Bernard G. HHPDV Fourth of July! Just lately Woodwardis water boy, Bob Leininger, whispered to Eddie Mackowicz, a fellow conspirator, l'll give you two tickets to our next game if you can fix me up a date with that cute little junior girl in the Art Klan. You guess her name. Did you know that Raymond Sheline teaches physics for the fun of it? And had you heard that Grace Miller and Arthur O'Callahan plan to attend the Junior Kid party disguised as rattle and baby bottle respectively? Well, Bill Raymond is trotting down the hall to stop this nonsensical flow of words. Let's go home and write a letter to Santa Claus---he'll understand. Things We Can Do Without Things we repeatedly say we can do without could well include Florence Gotthelf s chewing gum, or Lowell Burke's wisecra cks. Then too--- there are those noisy soup slurpersf' during the lunch hour, and half the crowd around the lunch counter. Mae iVest,s smiling face on the inside or a locker is a dash of cold water on a sunny day, while Lois Whiting's bright an- swers, Dorothy Rappaport's contirtuous bab- ble, and Carl Gilgallon's love-making ure a continual source of irritat ion. And last but not least tsaid in a stage whisper just in casel is that dear old bugbear-homework. True classroom item: Miss Mary Boyles: Do you know of any other purpose for which sponges are used? Pupil: Yes---er---ah---sponge cakes. Pet Aversions Note: These aversions are cub collect- ions? Members of the seventh hour news- writing class have gathered thoughts of many Woodwardites.

The principal characters are found in the Hummer family circle, two lovable old people with their three children, Mamie, Jesse, and Stanley. Written at the turn of the century, the novel pictures the trials and tribulations that Mamie, the beautiful daughter, experiences in her endeavors to keep the tale of vice and degradation of her brother, Stanley, from the parents. By conversation and description, Miss Singmaster has drawn perfect character sketches, not only ofthe leading personal- ities, but of many lesser figures hovering in the background to add zest and romance to the tale. Mrs. Hummer portrays perfectly the trusting German housewife who leaves the contact with the world to her children, believing in their ability to get along. Stanley, the mislead son, is a weak youth easily influenced by a promise of richesg while Mamie, with a shrewd knowledge of human nature, becomes the backbone of the family. Elsie Singmaster pours all of her deep understanding and love for these simple people in her book The Magic Mirror. Song Similes Lovely To Look At ---Report cards con- sisting of E's and F's.

Kasmarek Draws Male Lead Florence Gotthelf plays the leading part of Carrie in the opperetta, College Daze, which the glee club plans to present February 10. Florence, a senior girl, was given the lead in last year's opperetta. The male lead is taken by Zyg' mund Kasmarek who has the part of Spencer Goodman,', a spoiled son. The supporting cast includes Violet Sheckler, Morris Rappaport, Bob Bucher, Eleanor Southwick, Edith Schwab, Dick Bader, Irving Glassman, Jimmy Parker, and Norman Zimmer- man.

'U. S. Can Deter European War,' Says Emil Ludwig fEditor's Note: This is a resume of the Town Hall lecture atte nded by Aaron Novick. J True to the topic of his speech, The Fate of Europe 1914-1940,'l Emil Ludwig predicted another European war in two years in his address to a Town Hall audience last Saturday afternoon. Mr. Ludwig, an exponet of lib- eralism, is a voluntary exile from Germany. Having a dictator in America would be very unlikely, stated the speaker, for a dictator sym- bolizes gloom, while the Amer- icans are so cheerful they would fairly laugh the demogogue out. Mr. Ludwig explaned that the speeches made by dictators would be senseless to American citizens as they deal with war, glory, and death, without any intelligent argument. Germany was described as a people taught obedience as a law? consequently, there will be no revolution against Hitler, but the demagogue will go when he loses a war. Today Germany is armed, or- ganized, and ready to avenge her- self for the post-war treaties, con- tinued the aesthetic but dynamic lecturer. Providing the United States, which always shows more inter- est in Europe's affairs than Euro- peans, should invite foreign na- tions here to arbitrate, she could change the modern trend that will find two war-like and imperi- alistic nations, Japan and Ger- many, a matter of hours ove rthe oceans which she thought se- cure, concluded the notedbiogra- pher. SIX SOCIETIES GIVE YULETIDE PARTIES Woodward Clubs To Sponsor Christmas Affairs Next Week The International, Municipal, Periclean, Polish literary, So- cial Science clubs and the Tattler staff will hold Chrirtmas parties next week. The French club held its party last Wednesday, De- cember 11, in room 141. Three clubs, the Periclean, Pol- ish literary, and the Internation- al, have chosen next Wednesday, December 18, as the date of their parties. After the regular busi- ness meeting, the Peris will at- tend a social get-together in room 230 during third hour. Aurellia Kucharski is arranging the Pol- ish literary club's party which will be held after school in the club room. The International club will hold its party during third hour in room 141 with Fred- erick Holtfreter acting as chair- man. With June Bodeman actin as chairman, the Social Science c ub will have its party after sc ool today in the club room. xt Thursday, December 19, the u- nicipal club will have its p rty in the club room with Frances Tyrell in charge. Using its regu- lar period, the dramatic class will have its party next Friday, De- cember 20, in room 152. Eva Ganch is in charge. Exchange of gifts will be the feature of the Tattler party, next Friday, dur- ing first and third hours in the club room. Students in the sev- enth hour newswriting class are invited to attend. Club Plans Display A display consisting of dolls, busts, pottery one hundred years old, a cookoo clock from the Black Forest, and many other in- teresting things will be shown by the German club next week in the Tattler display case.

I I Ad .1 Q l Mrs. Marie Ersig fu ty Vhels ' 7 Hugh Montgomery Gain Or Loss HIS FIRST week in December ushers in the great American shopping season. With Christmas holidays approaching, gift- hunters are beginning to storm the down- town stores. This year again, many Woodward stu- dents will miss classes in order to fill clerk- ing positions during the holiday rush. Some, of course, need the money badly: but to others it will be pin money, to be spent for gifts or personal luxuries. Are the long hours of standing on aching feet during the day, coupled with the vain struggle to understand unexplained les- sons at night, worth the pay check at the end of the week? Can pin-money be com- pared with knowledge and rich experiences drawn from school life which pay in larger checks later on? The N. Y. A. T ITS last session, Congress voted a sum of money for the high school and col- lege youth of America. Recently Woodward began to feel the effects of this legislation. Students, whose parents were on relief, were assigned teachers for whom they per- formed various duties for an hour a day re- ceiving six dollars a month. Conveniently relieved of routine work, teachers can put more time and effort on daily classroom assignments and recita- tions: while the needy students doing this work earn money so welcome especially at this time of the year. Fill A Basket T THIS time ofthe year most of us are filled with thoughts of joyous Christ- mas holidays---of gifts and good times. We often forget that for many families the Christmas season will not be a happy one. Some clubs failed to donate a basket at Thanksgiving. These organization will sure- ly wish to help a needy family at Christ- mas. Worry is a thin stream of fear trickling through the mind. If encouraged, it cuts a channel into which all other thoughts are drained.---A.S. Roch. Wisdom is the knowledge of one's own ignorance.---Socrates. Heredity is an omnibus in which all our ancestors ride, and every now and then one of them puts his head out and embarrasses us.---Oliver Wendell Holmes. ,. . in our attempts to be fair, it is almost impos-l sible to present both sides of a controversy! without impartiality. Therefore, except in their proper places and at proper times, such 3 questions should be avoided. These proper places and times can be arranged for in the classes after the pupils have had a chance to do some reading and study for themselves. If this is not done, a debate too often becomes a mere dispute in which prejudice and ill feel- ing rather than good sense and reason prevail. It is never wise for a teacher, a pupil, or a group of pupils to take up the time of a class discussing controversial issues that even the wise men ofthe nation disagree on. As stu- dents it is our business to use our time in becoming better informed through text books and library readings about all the affairs of the world. Academic freedom is nothing new. It has had splendid and courageous champions down through the ages. Socrates died in its defense. Our only business as good teachers and good citizens is to see to it that no cults, creeds, or isms hidden under the folds of its cloak work their insidious way into the lives of our students.

Inquiring Reporter Would you prefer a longer school day and no homework to the present system? Nol Because I have more time to do my homework at home. John Suess, freshman. I I I I think a longer day and no homework would not be satisfactory, for the simple reason that no outside school activities could be carried on. I do, however, believe that a little less homework would be a great help. Ethel L. Schudler, sophomore. I I I No,I would not. Young people should associate the process of learning with the home as well as the school. Learning and studying should continue throughout the life of each intelligent individual and not be confined to the school room. Miss Grace Cronk, Instructor. I I I I prefer a longer day and no homework because when I get home I want nothing to worry about until the next day. Everett Lords, sophomore. I I I If lengthening the school day would do away entirely with homework, I would be highly in favor of it, for often times a person has a great deal more than he can do if he is not a good student. I believe that with the cooperation of the teachers and a longer school day pupils could ac- complish more. Henrietta Rump, junior.

Eggl of Teachers College, you must know a great deal about your city government, speaking at the recent meeting of the Municipal club. Professor Eggl stated that the pioneers paved the way for our many advantages of today. This generation should add something to these achievements or it will be a failure, added the educator, author of A School History of the Maumee Valley. Q I I 13 T ' ' f. f El-111 as as-W -. af it!

Motorman's Holiday OU often hear the joke about the mo- torman taking a street car ride on his free day, or the mailman taking a walk, but have you heard the one about the two students? The studious student looks forward to vacation. For now, he says, he will be able to do more extra-credit work, a little re- viewing, and perhaps some homework in advance. The frivolous student looks forward to vacation. For now, he yawns, he will be able to go out every night and not have to be called out of bed at the unearthly hour of seven a. m. Doctors and teachers recommend a change during vacation, but we still go on taking a motorman's holiday. Attention, Movie Fans! E,RE movie conscious. Just pass by any group of students. Girls, attired in copies of Hollywood frocks, are sighing over Frances Lederer as they dress theif hair in the latest Joan Crawford fashion. Boys either fancy themselves crooning Crosbys, agile Astaires, or grinning Gables. We like movies. They attract us because they entertain us. Our main difficulty is, with the hundreds of pictures released each year, to select the best. The East and West Coast Preview Corn- mittees issue a monthly pamphlet contain- ing current cinema ratings. Every four weeks the Tattler will reprint their list of the most outstanding pictures of the month. Students will find it a reliable guide in attending the movies. Have You Paid? VERY day, second hour, art students may be seen in the club room working on the club murals. A design for every club has been made. About eight have already been transferred to the walls.

IN OUR LIBRARY Christmas Eve. Many stories have been written about this season. Lady Eleanor Smith has writ- ten a delightful book entitled Christmas Tree,', a collection of stories telling of the destination of seven people buying Christ- mas trees in London: a temperamental Russian actress, a German governess, a maitre d' hotel, a magnate, a young wife, a hilarious nobleman, and an obscure young man. The plots of the stories are revealed in the swiftly moving prologue in which the leading characters are two shop girls who in their conversation reveal various traits of the seven tales. You receive intimate glimpses of varied types of London people characteristic of that English town. This book has just been added to the Woodward library and is recommended for vacation reading. The -Ride Listen, dear Woodwardites, And you shall hear Of the midnite sleigh ride Of Santa and his 'deer. On the 25th of December, in '35, From above the tree tops his sleigh will dive, Carrying a message of joy and cheer To children who are good thru out the year. ---Oscar Swaya. A Most Interesting Person This person is a teacher who is jovial, patient, and sympathetic. A man who de- spite physical handicap comes to school every day regardless of the weather smiling and ready to work. He is well liked by everyone he comes in contact with. A man whose knowledge of mathematics is end- less and who is ever-ready to help you 'with this subject in whatever way he can. If you ever want to meet a most interesting and courageous teacher and man, I recom- end you to E. R. -RikeLA 'iCub. The most interesting person I know is a teacher here at Woodward. She is quiet and sympathetic, yet jolly too. Miss Edith Murphy is her name. Miss Murphy is the adviser of the Zets, and they think she is tops. Why? Because she is not a stick in the mud but neither is she unconventional. She has every requisite for a well balanced personality and a good teacher. A Cub SEVEN WOODWARD GRIDDERS HONORED All-City Rating Given Florian Tschogl, Olin Boroughf By News Papers Seven Woodward grid players were honored on All-City football teams selected by Toledo Times and the News Bee. Olin Boroughf was selected as right tackle on the Times' first team and the News 'Bee's second. Florian Tschogl was placed at end on the News-Bee first squad and the Times' second. Red Hiltman gained second team honors on teams selected by both papers. He was placed THE WOODWARD TATTLER VOLLEYBALL WON BY MACHINE SHOP Two Teams Require An Hour To Play Champion- Ship Games Having held the final playoff last Wednesday placing the Machine Shop team on top as winners of the volley ball champi- onship, intra-murals for 1935 are over and not until leap year will the sixteen teams of the two leagues again compete. The Machine Shop boys won the first and last of a three game playoff lasting nearly an hour, to clinch the title. Eddie Mackiewicz is the manager of the defeated at quarter in the Times and half Polish Knights while Henry in the News Bee. lTopor heads the Machine Shop Gus Sch oonmaker and Ace Kel- ler were chosen for honorable mention by both papers. This meant good work by both of these boys at the first of the season as Ace was out of the last two games, due to his injured shoul- der, and because of an attack of' appendicitis, Gus was unable to participate in the Central tussel. Noel Dawson, guard, gained honorable mention in the News- Bee squad, as did Bill Wheaton, tackle, in the Times. Basketball Rules Changed For Current Cage Season Two slight changes passed upon by Northwestern commit- t ee rules will be used for the cage season this year. The rulings are the three second pivot rule, and if fouls are made, the team scored upon gets possession of the ball outside. Where these rules are used, spectators will find the game speeded up. This will be due to the time eliminated by not using the center jump after fouls are made. The three-second ruling means that the offensive player may be in the pivot circle for three sec- onds only,whether he has pos- session of the ball or not. If he does not obey this rule, the op- posing team gets the ball outside under the basket. Schoonmaker Holds One Point Lead Over Hiltman Red Hiltman came within one point of tying Gus Schoonmaker's total when he scored the Bears, only points against Central. Thus the peppery Gus finds himself in sole possession of the scoring lead, having tallied four touch- downs for twenty-four points. Red, with three touchdowns and five conversions, has twenty- three points. The final results are listed be- low. Players Td. Pts.

Because of his aggravating shoulder, Ernie Gross will be un- able to play for a while. There is the danger of bumping the in- jured portion and adding to the seriousness of the case. A Woodward followers will prob- ably find Florian Tschogl, Red Hiltman, Orville Swantek, Gus Schoonmaker, Olin Boroughf, Q and Walter Bojanowski compos- ling the starting quintet. All of these boys are lettermen from last year and should furnish Woodward's opponents w i t li plenty of competition.

Q The basketeers will be out 'to 'keep up their good record of the Bevan regime when they did not 'place lower than second place. This is an excellent record but the teams should fulfill expecta- tions and again place high in the standings. Woodward is favored to repeat the convincing victories of form- er years. Some of their scores were in 1934, 58-8, in '33, 44-18, and in'32, 42-14. Scott is the first intra city foe to face the Polar Bears.

Telltale Reflections How would you like to come face to face with yourself? Would you enjoy seeing yourself as others see you? That is ex- actly what happened in the girls' gym. u Up the stairs came a group of laughing, talking girls only to stop short in open-mouth amaze- ment for no other reason than coming toward them was an- other group of girls, familiar faces, familiar attire. It took a full minute to realize that what they saw was their own reflec- tion in a full length mirror, placed at the head of the stairs for the purpose of making each girl more conscious of her pos- ture and her appearance. North End Character Old Blind Jerry, a dog, is known by practically everyone who lives at the north end of the Ash-Consaul street bridge. He has an acquaintance with every- one whom he ever took a shine to. Although blind, he is able to find his way around his respec- tive block without mishap, un- less something has been mis- placed. Jerry can almost always be found at one of a few privi- leged homes, cleaning up choice morsels and bones that have been left over from the preceding meal. This unlucky dog for maybe he isn'tl has been blind for six yearsg he is now nine. So if you happen to see a short, fat, red- dish-brown cocker spaniel dubi- ously picking his way along the side walks of lower town and fre- quently stopping to receive the friendly greeting of a passer---by point him out as '4Old Blind Jerry. THE WOODWARD TATTLER MORLEY ADVISES WRITERS TO DIS- REGARD CRITICS AND USE INTUITION tEdit mr's Note: This is a resume ture as described by J c-:in Elmer.J On rare occasions, when I of Chistopher Morley's Town Hall lec- ist's workl and asked the taxi-dri- ver what river that was.

From that humble start, he has risen to become one of America's fore- most writers. He writes in a log cabin tdesigned by himselfl in a pine forest on Long Island. The viewpoints of literary critics are as silly as women's hats, Mr. Morley stated. We should disregard the critics and use our own intuition.

But Literature Pure and Simple was hardly touched. Art Klan Hears Miss Conlin Speak On Home Decorating Home furnishings follow the trend of women's clothing, stated Miss Julia Conlin of the interior decorating department of LaSalle 8a Koch's store, Wed- nesday, November 27, in room 141 to Art Klan members and second and third year art stu- dents. Many dress fabrics are used for draperies and furniture of which shantung, corduroy, and moire are very popular. Cellophane is also used for draperies. If the wall paper of a room is figured, the draperies and rug should be plain in order to have a pleasing contrast, Miss Conlin asserted.

Minute Interviews Having graduated fr o m Woodward, I feel at home here, and consider myself fortunate to have been ablc to do my training at this schoolf' stated Winsome Miss Norma Wintermantle, who can be seen instructing the fresh- man science classes. Two smiling eyes first saw the light of day right here in Toledo, Norma was a student in River- side and Hamilton grade schools, and graduated from Woodward in '31. Toledo University, where she received her major in biology, was the scene of her further edu- cational activities. Last year this young lady was a practice teacher in Mrs. Mary O' Brien's biology classes, and at present she is fulfilling the two year experience requirement under the supervision of Floyd Lords. In answer to the query concern- ing her ambitions, Miss Winter- mantle replied, I would rather teach than do anything else, and am interested in sociology toog especially in its connection with the child, the home, and the school. Dancing Unde r Difficulties To most masculine members of the lower classes, dancing seems to be a sort of modified wrestling match where the win- ner is the owner of the worst pair of scuffed up shoes after the tussle is over. No matter how large the floor, most boys are unable to step on anything but their partner's feet and are continually bumping either into a wall or some other struggling couple. Although the feminine participants usually emerge with more scuffs than their brave partners, there are a few fast-stepping males who seem to have conquered this so called art and are quite successful in keeping their dainty gunboats on the bottom of the pile almost every time. I Saga Notes I The staff decided to use cari- catures of teachers who do n0t submit pictures for use in the book. It was learned that the Saga this year will have 25 per-cent more pages Woodward's year book is the only city annual to employ a colored title page. Action pictures of the coming basketball games will be printed in the Saga. Design for the annual draws its inspiration from the Chicago World's Fair.

Polar Bears' Second Game Is In Gym Tonight l At Seven P.M. After a successful debut into the 1935-36 basketball season against the Holland squad, the Polar Bears will be hosts to the quintet from Blissfield at seven oiclock tonight. This is the second encounter between these teams, Woodward having emerged from the former tussle on the long end of a 46-14 score last year. Although little could be obtained in the way of information about the Blissfield cagers, the Bears should win this game. Florian Tschogl, who did such a good job of amassing nineteen points in the Holland game, will again be at one of the forward positions while Gus Schoonma- ker will perform at the other. Wally Bojanowski or Olin Bor- oughf will take chage of the cen- ter jump. Red Hiltman and Orv ille Swantek will start at guards. Players who entered a varsity game for the first time last week and will probably see action again in the Blissfield game are Sterling and Waite at forwards, Gross and Topor at guards, and Dorf at center. The reserves will start the eve- ning games again. The lineup will probably be Jazwieki and Haddad at forwards, Greenwood at center, and Stack and Hoskins at guards. Reserves Score 29-13 Win Over Holland Last Friday Coach Dave McMurray,s re- serve basketball squad made its debut last Friday night when it defeated the Holland reserves by a score of 29-13. Al Greenwood, Sylvester Jaz- wiecki, and Moses Haddad led the Bear Cubs in scoring as they piled up a 17-11 lead at the half. Thirteen players of the Woodward squad contributed the ir part to the victory. A large, part ofthe squad is made up of l the 1934-35 freshman league champions. Greenwood, center, was high scorer with ten points! to his credit. The next game will be tonight with a team of Woodward boys,4 the Miller Weldings, consisting of Ralph Brott, Bill Wheaton, 1 George Loucks, Walter Schultz, Ifevsgs Beebe, and Walter Schu- ISC . 1 Bibs For Girls l 1 1 1 Bibs of bright yellow are being 1 made for the girls' gym classes by Josephine Konopka, National I Youth Movement worker. 1 These bits of paraphernalia are 4 used to distinguish the playersl on one team from those on anoth- i er.

They are Joe Barbara, center, Tony Anello, and Harry Zaremba, ends, juniors, and Bob Stack, back, Joe Wichowski, tackle, Oscar Sear, guard, and Al Greenwood, tackle, sophomores. Woodward's Bowlers Get Match With U. of M. Team Bowling is taking on a major sport aspect at Woodward with the announcement by Gene Fielder, captain, that the Univer- sity of Michigan team, captained by Ralph Sidman, has arranged a two match series with our team, the first game to be played Jan- uary 11 at Ann Arbor. Febuary 1, the Michigan team will come to Toledo for a match. Red Fielder Robert Bolli, Dan Marok, Fred Skaff, Bob Boyles, and Charles Sherman compose the Wood- ward Bowler-overs. They are coached by Howard Phipps. Score Guessing Richard Buckoush wins the free ticket to the Woodward- Blissfield game by putting Wood- ward on the long end of a 39-14 score, for the Holland game miss- ing the correct figure, 39-13, by one point. Most of the guesses favored Woodward, that shows that we still have some school spirit. Place what you think will be the correct score to the Blissiield game on the blank below, to- gether with your name and home room number, and put it in the Tattler Box in front of room 122 before 2:30 tonight. If your guess is right, you will receive a free admission to the Maumee tussle, to be played here January 17. Woodward ...................................... . Blissfield ......... ........

The entire group must be sifted three times before being placed in classified groups, first on health, next on structure, and finally on functinn. After the school doctors disqualify the unhealthy, the rest POLAR BEARS WIN INITIAL CAGE TILT With Florian Tschogl count- ing nineteen points, Woodward's basketball squad successfully opened their 1935-36 season with a 39-13 victory over Holland. Orville Swantek opened the Bear scoring by sinking a foul, and with the assistance of Hilt- man and Tschogl, Woodward gained a substantial lead at the quarter. A basket and foul by Borsos were Hollan d's only points at this time. Tschogl con- tinued on his scoring spree dur- ing the second quarter and in- creased the Polar Bear lead to 19-5 at half time. Shortly after the second half started, Coach Homer Hanham inserted nearly every man on his squad into the game. During this time, Olin Boroughf, Wally Bo- janowski, and Norm Waite car- ried the scoring burden while Ernie Gross and Joe Hiltman offered outstanding defensive work. Besides Tschogl's nine baskets and a foul for his nineteen points total, Walter Bojanowski's six points, and Swantek's five points were high for the Bears while Borsos, speedy Holland forward, scored eleven of his team's thir- teen points with four field goals and a trio of fouls.

M. Meek replied, This includes all passes issued to the faculty, former players, and extra complimen- tary tickets for newspapermenf' One of the reasons for this rule was the deplorable financial sit- uations in the athletic depart- ments of the schools. Season passes issued by the principals will still be good, but parents' passes will be given to varsity members for games on home floors only. Reserves will not receive 9w1ll be classified as follows: structure, including factors of age, height, and weight, deter- mine this second classification which has been worked out from a formula scientically arrived at by Frederick Cozens. Many schools use this as a system of classifying but it is not reliable as it does not take into consider- ation the functioning ofthe body in action. The third means of classifying is decided by tests which always have been given to the lower classrnen and new are given to all groups to decide this rating according to function. Percentage Basis The final rating is given in points and the classification is decided on a percentage basis with the first 33 per-cent as the triple A group, the next 35 per- cent makeup the double A class, and the last 32 per-cent compose the single A group. The triple A is the superior class and probably will contain boys participation in outside ac- tivities such as varsity and intra- mural sports. This group will meet but once a week. The double A is the average group and will be taught normal class work twice a week. Empha- sis will be placed on exposing them to as many different sports as possible. The single A group which is below will meet twice and will need much attention from the instructors who will put more stress on teaching the funda- mental skills of various sports. This scheme of rating tends to equalize size of classes, meets needs for individual differences, and aids in instruction. , , . 1 , B F A it I 5, if Alex Rapp, until he is able to obtain his credits from St. John's, will be unable to play basketball.

THE WOODWARD TATTLER Minute Interview I Miss Luella Nevers---practice teaching under Miss Ward--- quiet, industrious, and dignified with a pleasant smile...attended East Side Central Grammar School, Waite High school, and Toledo University. At the university ,she majcred in math...would like to attend Michigan University next sum- mer and work for her Master's degree. This ambitious young woman stated that she enjoyed 'football games very much, and her favorite pastime is tennis playing. She likes to-read books with educational value and to lis- ten to the radio. Even though I attended Waite high school, my stay at Wood- ward thus far has been exceeding- ly interesting, and I hope that some day I may be able to have a permanent teaching position here, was Miss Nevers' closing statement. Hurray! A and B students of Woodward will be exempted from exams, Principal C. C. LaRue announced after attend- ing a principals' meeting Thursday morning. Mr. La- Rue's decision was based on the fact that the majority of the faculty favored the plan. The final decision for each high school, however, is left to the respective high school princi- pa . Superintendent Ralph Dug- dale presided. Mrs. 0'Brien To Form Red Cross Organization Here At the suggestion of Miss Gene- vieve Riley, head of the Junior Red Cross and principal of Mon- roe School, Mrs. Mary O'Brien will not organize the Red Cross until the first of the year.

Barnes Believes Cultural Lag Cause Of World Situation 1Editors'Note: This is a resume of fan Open Forum lecture as described iby Frances Dunn and Bertha Jakscy.J We cannot go on with one foot in an airplane and the other in an ox-cart, announced Dr. Harry Elmer Barnes, outstand- ing American sociologist, in his Progressive Open Forum lecture on Education for the Present Crisis, last Saturday. The world is in a state of cul- tural lag, he stated. This cultur- al lag, which is the period be- tween non-materal culture and materal culture, has caused the present crisis. The non-materal culture is too ancient and little- changed to control the materal culture which is far advanced in natural sciences and mechanics. Dr. Barnes said that within the next fifty, five, or ten years the world will have become either an undreamed of Utopia, or a bar- baric land. Adult education, es- pecially for the labor class, gov- ernment by experts fCivil Ser- vice examination for those who desire a government position,J and organization of all teachers so they can use combined infiu- ence over the prescribed by Dr. Barnes in order to maintain a high standard of living. Democracy and capitalistic system have failed in the United States. We are living in a day more critical than ever before, and a new world social order is inevitable, were Dr. Barnes's closing words. Dr. Samuel D. Schmalhausen will speak on Freud: Marx: Len- in at the next meeting December 13. Nynphiadora Funke and A Ferne Striggow, from James Pol- lock's sociology classes will hear this psychiatrist and author. WRESTLERS WIN Three Woodward matmen won titles in a City Novice Wrestling Tournament held last Saturday at the new Y.M.C.A. Roy Johnson won his title in the 135 pound class. After pin- ning his first opponent in one minute and thirty seconds' he took almost complete time ad- vantage to win his second match by judges decision. His last op- ponent was George Welsh of Waite Whom he pinned in one minute and forty-five seconds. Art Purone was acclaimed the winner in the 126 pound class when no other contestant in his division appeared. Chuck Wachtell, former Bear gridder who is working out with the Woodward students, won the BRONZE MEDALS 175 pound championship by pin- ning a Waite gridder in less than two minutes, and after nearly knocking out his opponent with a slam, finally pinned Francis Donley in seven minutes. Ray Stoykoff was entered in the 155 pound class, but after a hard struggle, he suffered a de- feat in the last few minutes. Of the eight titles offered, Woodward copped three of them and was the only city school, aside from Scott to come through with victories. The winners re- ceived Bronze medals emblemat- ic of their titles. Noel Dawson, who has charge of building up boys for next year's football team, handled the Woodward matmen in the tournament. FRIDAY, 13, DARKENS OUR HORIZON AGAIN lv.. Unlucky Day Strikes Terror In Fearful Hearts Of Students Three months ago supersti- tious people shivered in their boots while pessimists like Roy Coss fnow maybe he isn't, who knows?l predicted a gloomy fu- ture if it happened again. Well it has and optimistic pessimists have been walking down the halls backwards with their fin- gers crossed and such---why, Joe Boes and Margaret LaPlante could hardly eat lunch today be- cause of having to keep their fin- gers crossed! You would like to know what it's all about. If the coast is clear fl mean if Rita Kasprazak or Robert Sarvis isn't behind mel I'll tell you, dear readers---it's Friday the 13th! The last time this happened was in September. Miss Amie Miller and Raymond Sheline were sure they'd have to hire some secretaries to take care of the absentees. Billy Sfaelos, Al- wyn Keller, Noel Dawson, Alice Frankowski, Wilma Siebrasse, and gobs of other Woodwardites didn't come to school that day--- but today we notice the class mortality was reduced---so, my dear children, if I succeed in passing the remainder of this day whole fno, I'm not supersti- tiousl I'll tell you a Santa Claus story next week or something.

WOODWARD BEATS BLISSFIELD SQUAD Entire Squad Sees Action, Boroughf, Tschogl Top Scorers Blissfield High's basketball team went home from Woodward soundly trounced, 59-12, by the fast moving Polar Bears. The snappy method. of cornering these points along with the ex- ploits of a newcomer to the team, Alex Rapp, gave the cheering section hope for future city con- quests. Coach Hanham sent fifteen players, the entire squad, into the game before the final gun to make twenty-eight field goals and three fouls for a total of fifty-nine points. Boroughf led the slaugh- ter with fifteen points while Tschogl tallied fourteen, increas- ing his total to thirty-three. Paul Kornowa came next having gone around the Blissfield guard for three field goals and o ne foul. Rapp, while making only two baskets, aided the others by his guarding and faking the ball The others can be found below- and it will not be until January 10, when they meet Scott, that these highscozing guns can be turned on a city team.

THE WOODWARD TATTLER -HENRY PAGE PRESENTS ELEVENTH ANNUAL BANQUET FOR GRID TEAMS .....l.l-.1 1Editors note: Dave McMurray, newest member of the Polar Bear coaching staff, reports on the Henry Page Banquet.J Thursday, December 11, teams from Woodward, Waite, Central, Scott, Libbey, and DeVilbiss at- tended Henry Pageis annual ban- duet held in the Chamber of Commerce auditorium. Toledo is fortunate in having such an outstanding citizen who thoroughly enjoys doing some- thing for the youth of the city. Mr. Page enjoys these parties more than anyone else and plans to continue this fine addition. Etiquett was discarded as in- formality reigned when the play- ers began eating. The menu was a choice one beginning with a cocktail and ending with cake and ice cream which was molded after football players of a bygone era. Woodward's tricksters includ- ing Ace Keller, Olen Boroughf, Bull Dawson, and Ray Parker drew a hearty laugh, for when they received the ice cream they promptly placed it in their laps and politely asked for more. Needless to say, more ice cream was not forthcoming. The food was followed by the speakers of whom Don Peden was the principal one. Mr. Peden, coach at'Ohio University, Athens, O., had one of the few undefeated and untied college teams this year. He characterizes football as a very good way for boys to blow off steam and said that three things were necessary to have a successful team: first, 1 good material, second, good coaching, and third, good luck. Jack Patterson, DeVilbiss cap- tain, presented Mr. Page with a gold football in token of esteem from the teams present. Dusty Miller, noted humorist and editor from Wilmington, O., topped the program and sent players and coaches away from the great feast with many funny stories. Paul Evenstad, managing edi- tor of the News Bee, John Dunn, editor of the Morning Times, and Plummer Whipple, Blade sports writer, also addressed the players. Reserve Basketball Squad Wins Second Game Of Year Woodward's reserve basketball squad won its second contest' of the year last week when it defeated the Miller Weldingsr 23-19. Bob Stack started the Bears off to an early lead, and with the help of Chuck Hoskins and Moses Haddad, held a 12-6 advantage at g half time. With an early second half at- tack, Ralph Brott and Bill Whea- ton gave the reserves a scare, but Clifford Boykin and Simon Hodge put the Bears in the lead which they held until the final gun. For the winners Bob Stack, Chuck Hoskins, and Clifford Boy- kin led in scoring with seven, five, and four points respectively while Ralph Brott with eleven points and Bill Wheaton with four points, paced the losers. 1 1 Bob Root and Bert Stewart, former Bear gridders, kept score for the Blissfield game on a blackboard as the electric score- board has not been installed yet. O O O Joe Bloom assisted Pinkie Pittenger with the varsity game after handling the reserve tilt himself. He's becoming a handy man around Woodward. When Olen Boroughf tallied fifteen points last week, he set a new high total for himself. Don't stop now, Olen. lFormer Bear Star Athlete Instructs S. C. Wrestlers Vince Kelley Vincent Kelley, former Wood- ward star gridder, wrestler, and boxer, holds the position of wrest- ling instructor at the University of South Carolina at times when he is not participating in fresh. men football. Vince makes his expense money by making use of the training he received in wrest- ling at Woodward and the Y.M. C.A. Kelley, while attending Wood- ward, won the amateur wrestling championship of Ohio and West Virginia. Bob Root, Former Gridder Wins Ducat To Maumee Tilt A member of the '35 football team comes into the limelight again as the winner of the ducat to the Maumee game. Bob Root, former guard, is the recipient of the pass for his 60-10 estimate of the Woodward-Blissfield game. Three points was the margin by which he missed the correct 59- 12 score. The next blank will appear for the Maumee game. The winner will receive a ticket to the St. John's game. BEARS, STREAKS TANGLE TONIGHT Fremont Squad Possesses Formidable Record For '34-'35 Woodward's cagers tangle on the hardwood for the last time in the year 1935 when they travel to Fremont to match shots with the Crimson Streaks of Fremont St. Joseph's tonight. St. J oseph's is the possessor of a formidable record, for last year this team dropped but two games, the first, to Toledo Central which was tied with Woodward last year in the city race, and the sec- ond, to Waterloo in the state semi-finals. Four lettermen from this squad who form the nucleus of the Crim- son and Gray's present team, are Fischer and Miesle, forward, Mosser, center, and Chudzinski, guard. Smola rounds out the team as the other guard. Hauck, Oberhauser, Schneider, and Rechtenwald, promising reserve material, will probably see action in the tilt. Bucking up against this quintet will be Gus Schoonmaker and Florian Tschogl at the forwards, Red Hiltman and Orve Swantek at guards, and Bojanowski or Boroughf at center for the Polar Bears. The reserve basketeers will get a taste of battle when they clash with the Crimson reserves in a preliminary tussle to the varsity struggle. Homer Hanham Checks Cage Squads With Chart System Homer Hanham, head basket- ball coach, is keeping a chart on which the weight of each player is marked each night and also the number of foul shots he makes out of twenty-five trys. The purpose of this data is to en- able the coach to see at a glance if the player is improving, de- clining, or is consistent. If he loses weight steadily and is un- able to make foul shots consist- ently, it may be a sign that the player is going stale. Woodward Bowlers Topple Pins To Defeat Vocational National league bowlers gave Woodward a perfect average last week when they toppled Voca- tional high school in three straight games. Woodward's American lea- guers did not play as they had previously drawn a bye. Aids At Fun Night Miss Catherine McClure, Woodward physical education instructor, will have charge of games at the Chase school Parent-Teacher association fun night to be held at the regular meeting in January.

The in- formation is compiled by members of the National Honor society. The writer of this week's article is Aaron Novick.J Case School Of Applied Science Case, located in C levela n d, Ohio, is one of the finest technical universities in the country. Regu- lar courses of study offered are: Civil engineering, Metallurgical engineering, Physics, Chemical engineering, Mechanical engi- neering, and Electrical engineer- ing. The Bachelor of Science degree is conferred after four years of study. Five prize scholarships, each of the value of 3200 a year, are awarded upon competitive ex- amination to candidates for ad- mission to the freshmen class. The total value of the scholar- ship can be considered as 35800, as the award is usually contin- ued for the four year course of study. In order that a student may continue to receive the ben- efit of a scholarship, he must maintain the high standing in scholarship for which it was originally awarded. Prize scholarship examinations for the Cleveland school scholar- ships are held at Case on June 17, 18, and19, 1936. The following are the subjects of these examina- tions: algebra, thru binomial the- orem, and progressions: geome- try, plane, solid, and spherical, physics, chemistry, English, Ger- man, French, Spanish, or Latin. There is a good chance for an able student to secure one of the numerous fellowships. There are also numerous loan scholarships available. f iy 'W' I it it U, I attests, i i il il-- i -- ij- il1 i'1 Q' 'Tis the hour before midnight, and all through my brain run things to remember for Tom and for Jane.

Upon receiving the sig- nal, a flock of tiny helpers trip gaily from his whiskers, each carrying a balloon. Santa blows up the balloons, his helpers eag- erly gulp down the air,and there they are just like the original Saint Nick as big as life. That is the secret, little ones, of how Santa Claus gets from Tiedtkeis to the Lion Store so quickly. New Pastime Fails To Meet Principal LaRue's Approval Alas and alack! What will come next? A new, but decidedly unhealthy pastime has been ,contrived by the inventive minds of two male Woodward students---six footers, by the way. Leaning over the stairway rail, and calmly watch- ing bits of torn paper float to the once-clean hall, they created a terrible furor on the telephone wires as Principal LaRue was notified. This Sherlock-ish personage decided that punishment was due, and as he always pays his debts, he proceeded to pay this one full force Cwith paddleslg L.C. Clark acted as legal witness. A little while later, two very serious boys walked stifily from the oiiice toward the stairs. They glanced around, then sheepishly picked up the bits of paper that caused all the trouble. It pays to be good. CLASS OF '35 GIVES GIFT TO CLUB FUND 870.69 Donated At Recent Meeting Of Class Officers Work on the club room decor- ations will progress with added speed since the fund was aug- mented by 57069, a gift of the class of '35. The money, the bal- ance in the treasury, was voted for this purpose by the cabinet which consisted of Justin Hering, president, Leo Jankowski, vice- president, Virginia Stackowicz, secretary, Richard Pease, treasur- er, and Virginia Shuster, reporter. The money was retained by the office until the books were bal- anced and audited. This mone- tary gift, of course, does away with the necessity of an all-club skate, contemplated by the dec- oration committee as a means of raising money. iiEarlier in the year the class also donated 8676.27 to the library with which was purchased the World Book Encyclopedia. Miss Amie Miller and Raymond Sheline advised this class. Congratulations! The saying goes, In the spring a young man's fancy lightly turns to thoughts of love, but unless we change spring to winter, the diamond on Miss Barbara Smith's left hand might object with a vehement southetn drawl. Our office girlis lucky young fiance hails from Atlanta, Georgia, which is 'way down thar' as you enthusiastic geography students and faithful followers of Lil' Abner already know. All of which means best wishes to both of them.

Seventeen In All Many happy Woodwardites dashing down the hall. all very, jolly as they shout, Seventeen in all! The reason for all this gaiety is well known by now---they've all counted the days in every way they know how, and it still amount to seventeen long, glori- ous days for this Christmas vacation. 'I'ATTLIEi Riii56RffIET ENCOUNTERS SANTA Ol' Saint Nick Reports Queer Behaviors Of Several Scholars Here Well, well, little freshman, where did you get such a beaut- iful crop of snow white whisk- ers? inquires the Tattler Gossip Seeker of a rather buxom boy who is hurrying down the cor- ridor. Sh-h-h,', he shushes, don't tell anyone, but I am Santa Claus in disguised have been told of queer goings-on in Woodward, but I wouldn't believe it ,til Ihad seen it with my own eyes. I would like to know about some of these students. 'Frin- stance, here comes Juliette Sear. She always seemed like a quiet sort of person, but I hear she's in love,', slyly says Santa Claus. Y.T. G.

I hear that the feel- ing is mutual with them, and I think that is just ducky. Yes it may be ducky, but it's not what it's quacked up to be. They are just good friends. I hear that Arthur Schlievert is having a terrible time trying to decide whether it's Henrietta Rump or Doris Liliquist that he wants hanging on his Christmas tree. Then the good saint ran down the hall and as he went he heard Carmen Rovits and Marian CMikeJAnello saying, Merry Christmas dear. We know that it wasn't to him. Doctor S. K. Mahon Speaks On Spain To Student Group As guest speaker ofthe Student Council and interested members of the student body, Doctor Steven K. Mahon, a member of the board of directors of the University of Toledo, addressed the assembly on Toledo, Spain, in the auditorium, third hour last Monday.

The play is under the direction or Miss Dorothy Warner, Play- Shop adviser, who is assisted by Julia Bennett, student director.

Many Woodward Students Lack Right College Credits Through the recent question- naire filled out by seniors, it was learned that many college-bound students do not have the correct credits for college entryf, ex- plained E. L. Clark. guidance di- rector, in a recent interview. For most universities one must have two years of mathe- matics, two in science, two in language, and three or four in English, besides the required courses by specialized schools. Students planning to enter college are urged to consult Prin- clpal C. C. LaRue or Mr. Clark on the various college require- ments. P. T. A.

Aside from differences in political views every one will agree that the President is an outstanding orator, that his speech de- livery was exceptionally remarkable. His varying tone of voice, the clever use of brilliant figures of speech and Bible quo- tations, and the smooth, dignified flow of effective, simple words played a large part in eliciting those wild bursts of applause. In times like the present, training in public speaking is being recognized as a necessity. Woodward offers to upperclass- men an excellent public speaking course. Most liberal colleges require, or strongly recommend, courses of this nature. The student planning to further his education will do well to avail himself of these op- portunities. 7 r Consult The College Corner ENIORS filled out college information blanks recently. Questions concerning the type of college preferred, courses, and money matters puzzled the majority of col- lege - bound students. It is hoped that the information contained in the College Corner articles on page four every week will be of help. A Drop In Club Attendance EVERAL clubs are complaining of the growing number of absentees at regular club meetings this year. Possibly freshmen and sophomores. re- cently admitted to clubs, or lax upper- graduates, may not fully realize their atten- dance obligations. Most club constitutions state that a club member's first duty is to his club, regardless of other activities tak- ing place at the same time. It is thought by some that too many necessary activities or perhaps special meetings called by clubs, have been unin- tentionally disrupting regular club meet- ings. This could be avoided to a certain ex- tent, if clubs would hold all special meet- ings after school. The club schedule has been planned to cause as few confiicts as possible. A con- siderate student body and faculty will abide by it. One's eyes are what one is, one's mouth is what one becomes. ---Galsworthy. PRINCIPAL POINTS By C. C. LaRue On January 16 in the Civic Audi ' torium, Toledo will open her In- ' ,, dustrial Progress Exposition. It will be the first of its kind since 1919. During the past few years, so many disastrous things have happened to us that it has become quite the fashion to think that our city, industrially, is on its way to the Morgue. That this is far from the truth will be proven by this exposition. Too often we center our interest on the mor- bid and sensational affairs and forget the hun- dreds of fine constructive things that are being carried on quietly and effectively. Toledo todav, as in the past, is the greatest natural port on the Great Lakes. She is still a great railroad center, the place where iron ore and coal meet. She is still a city of beau- tiful churches, schools, and homes. Her Art Museum still excels that of all other cities from New York to Chicago. The products of her more than one thousand factories are used wherever you find civilized man. Many of us are ignorant of the variety and volume of our industrial products. This expostition will give us this much needed education. Look at it, study it and gain new inspiration for living in a greater Toledo.

THE WOODWARD TATTLER POLAR BEARS BEAT CRIMSON STREAKS Olen Boroughf Wins Tilt For Bears In Last Few Seconds Olen Boroughf tipped in a field goal with twenty seconds to go in the final period to give the Bears a one point win over Fremont St. Joseph, 36-35, on December 20, and the third straight victory for the Woodward team. After Red Hiltman and Florian Tschogl led the Polar Bears to an early 19-1 advantage, the St. Jos- eph team in the second quarter started a scoring spree holding the Bears to three points and making the score 22-11 at the half. After the intermission, the Streaks continued to score against the second stringers, who had been inserted near the end of the second period, although Paul Kornowa and Norm Waite added to the Bears score, and with one minute to go, Center Mosser tallied from the field to put his team in the van for the first time during the contest. Then came Boroughf's shot bringing victory to the Bears. The summary of the game fol- lows: Woodward G. F. T. St. Joe's G. F. F.

The senior team was composed of Bill Wheaton, Ralph Brott, Roger Schulz, Walter Schulisch, Bert Stewart, and Bill Phifer. The sophomore squad, after defeating Libbey, was well on its way to the championship but was beaten by Waite in the finals.

Eugene Haddad, Meyer Greenbaum, and Ferris Skaff were outstanding in their performance for the freshmen. The junior members of the Hi-Y club failed to enter a team in the tournament. Florian Tschogl Leads Polar Bear Teammates In Scoring Florian Tschogl, flashy for- ward, leads the Polar Bears in scoring with forty-three points which he has collected in the first three games of the season. This gives him an average of just over fourteen points a game.

INTRA-MURAL CAGE SEASON IS OPENED Odd Fellows Replace Peiuper Cagersg N. Y. A Workers May Ofliciate Last Tuesday the first games of the intra-mural basketball league were held, Renaissance boys playing the Ramblers and the Polish Knights opposing thePo- lish Lit. five. Thursday the Art Klan played the Odd Fellows, and the Pencil Pushers were next. The Odd Fellows, mentioned above, is a new group taking the place of the Peiuper club which has been dropped from the league. Officials for the games have not been selected yet, but Art Smith, in charge of intra-mural basket- ball, may use N. Y. A. workers in these positions. lf this is not done, four managers from the American League will officiate at the National League games and vice versa. Games will be played four nights a week, with the excep- tion of examination week, until the first week of March. Howard Francis is president of the mana- gers who arrange the details for the league. Gil Harre Chosen As Tackle On Elgin Midwestern Team Gil Harre Gil Harre, all-city tackle while attending Woodward, made the All-Star ranks of football this year, which is his senior year at Ohio State University. Harre was chosen as tackle on the Elgin Midwestern team on basis of his weekly performances during the last season, his third for the Scarlet and Gray varsity at Ohio State. All members chosen on the Elgin All-star teams received El- gin watches in recognition of their outstanding ability. Hop, Step, Hop The rather tired voices of Miss Catherine McClure and Miss Stella Cornwell are heard saying, Step, run, leap, glide. Ex- hausted girls step like drum majors, run like track stars, leap like gazelles, and glide like Junior's model airplane. Folk dances are executed with grace Q1 and gusto. Two days later the tired voices are a bit more so and some of the gusto has gone out like the flavor of two-day-old gum. Exhausted muscles ache and the once enthusiastic females go limping down the hall. If taken as a steady dietf' remarked the instructors, it is really not hard. But it's like eat- ing too much peach ice cream after a long diet of hash. WOODWARD, SCOTT CLASH IN CITY TILT Woodward Favored To Beat Bulldogs In Opening City Game After winning three successive games against out of town oppon- ents, Woodward's Polar Bears enter their first city game favor- ed to win over the Scott Bulldogs tonight on the Scott hardwood. The Woodward quintet tan- gles with a team which annually gives a tough struggle and which is led this year by DeBord, Kemp, and Leonard, all of whom are vet- erans of last year's team. In three years Woodward's cagers have topped the Scotton- ians five times in as many games but dropped two tilts in 1931 and 1932, one of which was tourna- ment game. Woodward's combination of Boroughf at center, Tschogl and Swantek at forwards, and Hilt- man and Schoonmaker at guards has been clicking in the games to date. Florian Tschogl, flashy for- ward, and Olen Boroughf, husky center, have carried the scoring thus far with 43 and 23 points respectively. Bear basketeers are in good shape after practices which were held throughout the Christmas vacation to keep them fit for their game tonight. The reserve team plays the Scott seconds in the city re- serve league opener at 7:30. 1l .,.,,i. liffrrwa .... . Although he injured his ankle a few days preceding, Red Hilt- man had his ankle taped and contributed seven points toward Woodward's victory. That's the spirit, Joe. l if 1 In their three victories so far this year, the Polar Bear basket- ball team has scored an average of forty-four and two-thirds points per game to twenty for their opponents. G i If Florian Tschogl was appointed captain for the Fremont St. J oe's tussle and ably justified the se- lection by tallying five fielders to lead the Bears to victory. Bear Cubs Defeat Fremont St. Joe's For Third Victory In a rough game of 27 fouls, Woodward's reserves scored a one point victory over Fremont St. Joseph's by a 23-22 to keep up their undefeated pace for this seasonj Jaswiecki led both teams in scoring with nine points while Greenwood and Hoykin followed with five and four points respec- tively. Gracheck and Reineck shared the honors for St. Joe's with six points apiece.

Where is your hall per-N mit? Why---no---yes---very sorry, I didn't know you were Miss Cur- tis' practice teacher! Thus we are introduced to pe- tite Rosaline Pozarzycki who is gaining her two year experi- ence in the French 'department here at the family school. Her education at Woodward Tech, Bowling Green, and Michigan where she received her A.B. and M.A. degrees in the Romance Languages. Practice teaching was done in University high school at Ann Arbor. Please don't ask me my favor- ite color---I've never outgrown green! sighed the interviewed. Incidental ly, green is an extreme- ly becoming color even though she professes a dislike while wearing it. Hobbies are too nu- merous to mention, was the rejoinder to this pertinent ques- tion, but I do have collection manias, and enjoy making rag tugs. Now you've been introduced, just ask Miss Pozarzycki to dance the next waltz, or join you in a game of ping pong and you'l1 have her ready acceptance for, she loves both pastimes. Mrs. O'Brien Will Organize Junior Red Cross Society After the new semester starts, the Woodward Junior Red Cross will be organized by Mrs. Mary OfBrien with the assistance of a small group of students who will act as a nucleus in the formation of plans for a larger organization at a later date. The first work will be to initiate correspondence with a Junior Red Cross unit in some foreign land. Other phases in this work are to entertain crippled and wound- ed soldiers, supply infant cloth- ing for needy families, put on pro- grams for the crippled children, Orphans' Home, and Home for the Aged. A new ruling has been made concerning this nationwide or- ganization's convention. It will be held in Washington D. C. one year and Chicago the next year. This will enable more western members to attend these meet- ings.

EMPLOYS 124 , WOODWARD PUPILSL Various Departments Aided By Students' Work Done Here Since Roosevelt's National Youth Administration projecthas gone into effect, one hundred and twenty -four needy Woodward students are regularly benefited. A total of twenty hours a month, helping teachers in various ways, brings these students a monthly check to be used for books,school supplies, or whatever the recipi- ent may need. 1 Most of the jobs are clerical work, typing, and filing, with some exceptions. A portion of Mr. Clyde Meek's fifteen assist- ants act as guards at basketball games, Miss Grace CrQnk's six aides help with welfare work, the three who work under Mr. Stan- eart's direction make solutions and clean laboratory equipment. In the line of shop work, sever- al boys repair apparatus, and arrange and clean equipment. Mimeographing, grading papers, and cleaning cupboards are other odd jobs that turn up in almost every department. Beside helping the students financially, teachers' after-school work becomes lighter and less tiring. Indians Practice Here Repairs on the Waite High school gymnasium might have forced the East Side basketeers to drop practice for a short time Woodward courteously allowed the Indians the use of the Wood- ward girls' gym for their cage practice during the last week However the teams did not scrim- mage because of the game to be played between the two schools on January 15. The Woodward Tattler Staff on behalf of the student body and faculty, extends its deepest sym- pathy to the following on their recent losses: Bertha and Micheal Jakcsy, Florence Schindler and Miss Hazel Coy. Woodward Honor Society Contemplates Party Soon Bertha J akcsy and Faith Eger will be in charge of a party given by the Honor society in the near future.

FAIR VACA'I ION ISTS SEE FAMOUS SPOTS Bermuda, New Orleans, New York, Florida, And Chicago Visited That the traveling teachers during the holidays found diver- sion is quite apparent from the remarks made about these trips. Returning from a sojourn at Bermuda, Miss Grace Lawton was delighted o v e r spending New Year's Eve on the S. S. Manhat- tan. Entertained at luncheon at the Rainbow Room atop Rocke- feller Center in New York, M i s s Dorothy Warner, stated that she received a wonderful view of the city from it. Though it was the coldest there in forty-five years, it was much nicer than the climate here, remarked Miss Emily Strachan, about her drive to vari- ous parts of Florida. Journeying to New Orleans and the great metropolis of New York filled vacation time for Mrs. Hazel McManamon. In New York the head of the English depart- ment viewed six current hits on Broadway among them Win- terset, Victoriz Regina, Dead End, and The Children's Hour. Miss Amie Miller saw the perfor- mance of The Great Waltzv while in Chicago. , 1-l....-,i..,. 1 1 Mrs. Ben Johnson To Talk 1 To Several Societies Here 1 Mrs. Ben Johnson, who talked iabout books at a program here f last year, will review The Twen- ities, the last of a series of six books by Mark S.

They lived this life of conceitedness, and mischievousness too, Until that awful day came when the grade cards were due. One glance at them and the sophs in horror did exclaim, And vowed that ever in the future, brilliant fame they would obtain. Rise So now behold the sophomores, so ambi- tious and so true.

England, who failed to make him poet laureate, should remember him for his Recessional which begins--- God of our fathers, known of old--- Lord of our far-fiung battle line--- Beneath whose awful hand we hold Dominion over palm and pine--- Lord God of Hosts, be with us yet, Lest we forget---lest we forget! U l U NOTICE: This is just a gentle reminder to those who failed to turn over the pro- verbial new leaf at the New Year con- cerning homeworkg the beginning of the second semester will do just as well. The Winning Battle WO freshmen recently had a fight in the hall. In contrast another freshman won fourth prize in a national contest. In both instances the freshmen were fighting. But the boys in the first case were fighting each other with no progress- ive end and at the same time creating a social disturbance, while the other lad was fighting objectively. Whether the latter wins or loses, he will be nearer success. Perhaps you too are fighting. Are you sure you've picked the right opponent? - Worthy of Support THIS edition of the Tattler is dedicated to Woodward's sophomore class. Much of the material was written by sophomores outside the Tattler staff, in the newswriting class. This second year class is considered by both students and faculty to be one of the best.

In Our Library Little Era in Old Russia by Irina Skar- iatina is one ofthe most charming books on the sophomore reading list in Woodward's library. A vivid account of Miss Skariatina's own life in Russia in the days of the aristocracy, this interesting book is written in a style fresh and spontaneous. With wonderful clearness, she recreates a scene exquisite and idyllic, a fairyland that was once real but now has disappeared. Her memories have not been dulled by time now tarnished by sentimentality. It is as though a door had been opened upon the past, and it all exists again as once it was. In Miss Skariantina's own words--- A color, a smell, a word, and I'm off. Now old Russia is vanishing for ever, and when my generation disappears, there'll be no one to tell the story? 1- -LT.

POLAR BEARS WIN THREE GAMES TO CONTINUE UNDEFEATED PACE Woodward Defeats Scott, Waite In Inter-City Tiltsg Bears Drop Maumee For Sixth Straight Victory Of Current Season ,lliil Woodward successfully invaded Scott and Waite on January 10 and 15 and beat Maumee quintet in the Bear gym January 17. Scott fell by 32-28 score, Waite was downed 27-22, and Maumee ended up on the short end of a 29-23 count. with three victories. The reserves also came through Accuracy at foul line proved the margin of victory for Wood- ward when they caged ten out of seventeen free tosses against the Maroons. Florian Tschogl talligd nine points to lead the Bear attack while DeBord, with eleven points, topped the Scotters al- though Scott threatened in the closing minutes of play. Tschogl High Scorer Florian Tschogl led the Polar, Bears to their fifth straight vic- tory by overcoming Waite last Wednesday on the Indian fioor, although the latter team had an advantage in height. Al Price and Alex Urban kept the Bears on the run, but Hiltman and Kornowa tallied in the final minutes to give Woodward its lead. The Bears lead at half time was 16-13. Though rather tired from the Waite game, the Bear cagers were able to trounce the Maumee quintet 29-23 last Friday night. During the first minutes of the game, Maumee cagers swept the Bears off their feet to gain the lead, but Woodward settled down and behind accurate shoot- ing of Florian Tschogl, was able to outscore its opponents and gain the lead which it held throughout the game. The raging Maumee quintet again made a bid in the closing minutes of the game but was unable to over- come the handicap before the gun ended the tussle. Miss McClure Takes Charge Of Girls' Gym Leaders Class For the second semester of work, the girls' leaders class will change hands. Formerly under Miss Stella Cornwell, the girls will now be led by Miss Cather- ine Mc Clure. The duty of these junior and senior girls is to officiate at intra-mural games and assist with third hour and regular class work. The class will continue to meet each Monday, third hour. Efforts in this direction will also help the members to gain points toward earning a letter.

This system will take effect be- ginning Monday,January 27, and continue until spring vacation. Sophomores Are Active On Woodward Reserve Squad Members of the sophomore class have been very active in Woodward athletics during the past years and this year's class is upholding the standard set for them. Of the fifteen members of the reserve basketball squad, eleven are sophomores which is about 76 percent. These second year athletes are Clifford Boykin, Al- fred Greenwood, Ervin Klocko, Charles Hoskins, Sylvester Jas- wiecki, John Golembieski, Jack Birdsell, Julian Jordan, Ralston Leininger, Robert Stack and George Miller.

J OHN'S TONIGHT Bears Fight For Third City Victory Opposing Knights Tonight will find the Wood- ward Bears, who are fighting for their third city victory, meeting St. Johnfs which is trying for its first city win. This game promises to be fast and furious for although the Knights are noted for their smallness, this handicap is overcome by their speed and accuracy on shots. St. John's attack is built largely around Emery Alex and Captain John Higgins, while Florian Tschogl will give the opposing team plenty of trouble. Waite and DeVilbiss have de- feated St.John's, while the Bears' record shows wins from Waite and Scott. By comparison it seems that Woodward should be able to down the St.John's five. The Knights will probably start Captain Higgins and Hewie Whelen at guards, with Bill Thompson at center, and Ray Sullivan and Emery Alex at for- wards. Coach Hanham will use Swan- tek and Tschogl at forwards, Bor- oughf at center, and Schoon- maker and Hiltman at the guard positions. Polar Bears, DeVilbiss Tied For Lead In City Cage Race After the first few weeks of competition in the intra-city basketball league, we find De- Vilbiss and Woodward tied for first place. DeVilbiss has played three games compared to Wood- ward's two which gives the Tig- ers the edge. Central, Scott, and Waite are tied for the next po- sitions with one win and one de- feat apiece.

Both have had sev- jeral years of experience as fresh- I men deans. 4'My greatest hobby, confided the jovial Miss Cronk, is boys and girls. Of course, as every- one knows, flowers are another of my interests, she added laughingly Mr. Meek's side-line is sports. He participated in baseball, and tennis some years ago. Lately he has taken up golf. However, he professes no special ability in any one of these. Welfare work is another of Miss Cronk's many activities, while Mr. Meek gives an equal part of his time to directing 1 Woodward's athletics. ' In connection with their work las class deans, Mr. Meek and Miss Cronk feel that the class cabinet should make its own de' cisions about such things as the class play and social affairs.

Mrs. Johnson stated that the books of Mark Sullivan, the last of which was completed in Oct- ober, 1935, are a constant remind- er of things we have forgotten and cover a period of twenty-five yr?-ars in the average American's 1 e. Such trivial things as the be- ginning of the quick lunch, sim- plified spelling, the revived art of bicycle riding, and even the steps of the Charleston, are mentioned in his books. I can't begin to tell you all ofthe histori- cal and humorus material con- tained in these volumes,'l she said, so I advise you to read them.

Breezy Plot Margaret O'Connell plays the role of Mrs. Rimplegar, the dazed rattle-brained mother who tries to be sugary to her children but can't, her children being what they are. Douglas, played by Ted Nichpor, thinks he has dramatic talent and every once in a while he pulls what he thinks is a gag.

Although being the youngest of the boys, Ed, Norman Zimmerman, is the only one who wants the house to be a real home.

A murmur of ad- miration comes from the group of mothers and fathers, aunts and uncles assembled in the Little Red Schoolhouse to hear your parents and mine show their skill in spell- mg. Teaching methods and curricula have changed since those days, but the spelling bee remains. Many accomplishments are being made useless with the advent ofthe machine, accurate spelling will always be required. The Blade spelling contest, open to high school students, affords an excellent op- portunity for the ambitious to brush up on his spelling. Leading With Judgement ' HIS issue is devoted mainly to the senior class---the group charged with the responsibility of leading school activities with good judgement. The first major senior event this year will be the classplay, Three-Cornered Moon. Although criticized by some, the play com- mittee has chosen a merry, modern comedy instead of the usual more dignified drama. In either case, the cast would be able to display dramatic ability. How pleasant it will be, then, to remember one's class- mates by the rollicking roles in Three- Cornered Moon. The Best Reward TARTING yesterday and continuing until next Wednesday, the Internation- al club is receiving clothing donations from Woodward students and faculty. In the past, students have had the op- portunity to giveg but usually they have received some material gain, either in the form of entertainment or prizes. The In- ternational club will enable us to follow, in part, the doctrine of the doctor in The Magnificant Obsession. He didn't receive anything in return for what he gave, and neither will we, except that greatest gift of all---human happiness. The only difference between a rut and a grave is in their dimensions. ---Ellen Glasgow. pal? . . .

Senior Spotlight When you page through the Saga next spring, a dark-eyed senior girl will gaze interestedly at you from numerous sections of the book. Her piquant face with its fiashing eyes is so animated that you imagine she is speaking--- As she avidly discusses a wide range of sub- jects with you, she deftly puts you at ease. She has quite definite likes and dislikes, but her appreciation of things of an aesthetic nature is extremely acute. Although she leans toward dramatics and the fine arts, outstanding ex- ecutive ability is also hers. Even though she spendsa good deal of her time on the annual, in clubs, and in dramatics, she could show you a perfect grade card if she wished. Surely you won't have to wait for the 1936 Saga to discover who she is. Irate Father: What do you mean by bring- ing my daughter in at this hour?

Central defeated Scott by three points in an over- time period and topped Waite by a single point. Woodward de- feated these teams by four and five points respectively, and thus Vffoodward gains the slightest edge on previous records. Bears Meet Tigers Q DeVilbiss' championship Tiger quintet minus Jim Rae will have Marshall Carlson in at the tipoff position while Bill Luther and Roy Lee will pot shots from for- ward positions. Maynard Simon and Jack Patterson are the Tiger guards. . Scott's .Bulldogs fell before the Tiger attack by a 33-30 count, While Woodward toppled them 32-28. This should give Wood- ward a one point advantageg but the game played against Central three days before, makes the DeVilbiss tussle a tossup. 1 To Speak At DeVilbiss An invitation extended by Peggy Downing, program chair- man of DeVilbiss Girls' Athletic League, will take Emily Braun- schwieger to DeVilbiss on Feb- ruary 3 at 2:45 to address that organization on behalf of the Girls' W club of Woodward. The afternoon's program will contain talks by representatives of all girls' high school athletic clubs in Toledo.

WRITER ADDRESSES TOLEDO TOWN HALL Dorothy Thompson Sees Need For Religious Change In Country The college youth in this country is more radical than ever before, asserted Dorothy Thompson, journalist, before the Town Hall audience last Satur- day morning in the Commodore Perry hotel. She believes, how- ever, that this radicalism is not communism but simply a dissat- isfaction with the present system due to growing social depend- ency. Miss Thompson, who is the wife of Sinclair Lewis, strongly urged that leaders be educated to meet future depressions suc- cessfully, instead of blindly plan- ning when it is too late. As an example, she cited the Adminis- tration which is trying every medicine in the chest to find a cure for the nation's ills. The country could choose two directions as a solution, she de- clared. They are planned econ- omyf' which would lead to Fas- cism, and a complete religious conversionf' which would bring about freedom and independence. You can build horizontally, or you can build vertically, she said expressively, then abruptly con- cluding--- and that is for you to choose. - IF Shop Notes Hugh Montgomery's print shop is starting to print the new 1936 Saga, which will be bigger, better, and more elaborate than ever before. . . .

Diary R iymond Sheline 1 After breaking through a bar- rier of modesty, one is pleasantly surprised in learning the achieve- ments of Raymond Sheline,jun- ior and senior boys' dean. After earning a degree in chem- ical engineering at Tri-State Uni- versity, Angola, Indiana, he en- tered the University of Michigan and received his A.B. and M.A. degrees. Hunting and fishing are his favorite sports while a roving spirit has led him through the eastern parts of United States. A teacher at Tri-State, princi- pal of Port Clinton high school, and Superintendent of Genoa public schools are some of the positions held previous: to his joining Woodward's faculty in 1928. Plus tea ching freshman science, he is adviser of the Saga, a posi- tion which he enjoys very much. His work as a dean, he adds, affords an excellent chance to study not only the personalities of the students but also those of their parents. J-Hop Signers Attend Daily Dancing Class In Girls' Gym Dancing classes for signers of the J-Hop petitions started yes- terday, third hour, with Wilfred Soldwich's orchestra playing for the students while Mrs. Kathryn Schuler, Miss Dorothy Bardo, and Miss Marian McDonough taught the steps to the amateurs. Wilfred is a junior at Woodward. Programs, printed in royal blue on hammered silver metallic pa- Der, with blue pencils will be off the press in a few days. Tickets are printed to match the pro- grams with blue on silver and will be distributed by the holders of the petitions. Decorations for the dance, giv- en at the Richardson building, will be furnished by the junior class. Sophomores Plan Amateur Contest For Next Meeting The sophomore class meeting, Thursday, February 13, will con- sist of an amateur contest in which only sophomores are eli- gible. Aspiring performers must signify their intentions of enter- ing by depositing their names in room 312. D Miss Emily Strachan, Miss Dorothy Warner, Miss Amie Miller and John Grodi will act Walter Winchell may hand out orchids, but the old Tattler Gos- sip seeker has learned to hand out nothing more than hot scoops and headaches, and look- ing into the G. S. diary we find that he fshe or itj intends to present Orville Swantek with a pair of pneumatic knee pads for making Woodward's ball find the basket so many times during the St. John scramble---Yowza--- we hear that a certain popular senior girlie whose first initial is J has heart trouble when he's around too! Can you imagine, Betty Mae Dalzell is absolutely sitting on a i'Three Cornered Moon when she reads those letters from Chuck Riker, a former Wood- wardite---and does Don Anthony only sit on his ear when Betty smiles at him. The gift of copper plated ear- muffs will have to be split be- tween Roger Schultz, Bill Wheaton, and Walter Schulisch because they all enjoy rumble seat riding---and hamburgers---of which Joan Elmer and Marian Blackman partake after basket- ball games. Peeking at page 999 we see that Annette Veller is wearing a pin which denotes senior class presidency---but she and Ted say it's only platonic fbeginning to use two-bit words eh, T.G.S.?J as do Dorothy Kaszubiak and the donor of her particular pin--- Well, well, we see by the same page that Roy Coss is talking baby talk to Lucille Kapella who seems to enjoy it as much as Bert Stewart does when Annie Muel- ler tells him good-night---and as for that Dorothy Hoskins affair, it's still veddy, veddy close be- cause she changed her schedule to be in all of his classes---woe is all of the gals---here the diary breaks off abruptly---no more gossip---you may all have your sigh of relief. 'Accent On Music' To Be Given Next Thurs. Morning, Feb. 6 Despite a necessitated post- ponement in the presentation, Accent On Music, sophomore class play, will be given Thursday, February 6. Around the background of a supper club develops the romance of Michael, orchestra leader, and Mary, hat-check girl, aided by the hostess. Those who take the leading parts are Dora Jackman, Arthur Brywczynski, and Emma Berdue. Student To Hear Lecture Miss Edna McLaughlin will send Frances Dunn to the Town Hall lecture, Saturday, February 1. The speaker will be J. Frederick Esseray, a famous Washington correspondent for the Baltimore Sun, and speaker and commentator on American politics. His subject will be as judges, 1 Lifting the Lid in washington. FACULTY, STUDENT COMMENT ON PLAY Miss Warner In every finished production, there is always a corps of unseen artists to whom the applause comes but faintly because they are the back-stage hands, de- clares Miss Dorothy Warner, director and adviser of the cast for the senior play. She wishes to extend her sin- cere appreciation to this staff of modest, willing workers, glad to sacrifice the glory of personal acclaim. Without them, the play would be an unfinished picture--- a daub of meaningless figures on a sheet of blank paper. As further praise of the unseen, Miss Warner states, Those who gaze beyond the scenes see a staff of faithful boys and girls willing to have their work eclipsed for the moment by the action of the cast. Julia Bennett, student director, gives further praise by saying, The play is the thing, and it must go on! But how could any production be a success without the unfailing assistance of those silent workers back stage. On their capable shoulders rests the ultimate success of their co- workers, the actors. Municipal Club To Provide Mothers' Entertainment Because the date of the Febru- ary meeting ofthe Mothers' club falls on Lincoln's birthday, the organization w i ll h a v e its monthly meeting next Wednes- day, February 5, in room 141.

Dr. Naismith invented the? game of basketball, and for this reason local faculty managers voted the money to be collected at all games tonight. Group To Take Trip Members of Woodward's Al- chemist society will make a trip to the Astronomical Observatory of the University of Toledo, Thursday evening, Feburary 27. Aaron Novick arranged the tour and William Hiltner, a stu- dent assistant to Prfoessor J. B. Winslow, will conduct it.

A prize of 32.50 is offered to the winner of the naming contest which is under-the direction of Mrs. Hazel McManamon who has selected A. Dean Johnson, Miss Louise Tippett, and Miss Adrienne Curtis, as jud- ges. Each student is allowed but one entry and the word Hcarnivall' must not appear in it. This contest, which begins today and ends Monday, February 24, is open to all Woodward students who, on their entry, must print plainly their classification, name, and only one title which they wish to enter. This may be deposited in the box in room 230. Clubs are urged to select various activities which they wish to sponsor at this event.

Rita Loerke will be in charge of the program. Julia Bennett heads the com- mittee in charge with Dorothy Kaszubiak, Bertha Payak, Rita Kasprazak, and Allen Jane Scott assisting. Requisites Of Cartoonists Elucidated By Port Saylor To be a cartoonist, one must have a good sense of humor to make a serious question into a comic, stated Port Saylor, head of the art department of the Toledo News-Bee, in his address, Art Work in the Newspapers, at the regular Art Klan meeting during third hour Wednesday. He said that most of the car- toonists' ideas are taken from the original sketches of Thomas Nast Sr. who originated Santa Claus and various other imaginable objects. Advertising differs from a car- toon as it is drawn exactly as the article advertised, Mr. Saylor stated, but a cartoon is exagger- ated. Judd Budd-Jack, News-Bee sil- houette artist, who was at the Toledo Industrial Exposition, made silhouettes of the Art Klan members in room 335 after the program. Woodward students are the only high school pupils in the city that had theirs cut. Boys' Athletic Department Sponsors Post-Game Dances Dancing from 9:30 to 11:00 P.M. in the girls' gym after the Scott and Waite basketball games will be sponsored by the boys' athletic department.

Like the national government, Wood- ward too is harassed by a debt. The total sum of 32914.01-3, expenditures necessitated by yearly athletic programs, has not been incurred recentlv,but has gradually mount- ed over a period of many years. But Woodward believes it has hit upon the solution. By staging a yearly carnival in which the whole school would partici- pate, it is believed that the athletic deficit will eventually be wiped out. The first of these affairs will be held in April. Through the clubs, many students are already volunteering for Work. Is your club among them? Are you helping to bal- ance Woodward's budget? A New Playground ECENTLY the Board of Education bought the vacant lot on Otto street opposite the football field. This lot, to be used for play and practice purposes, will be annexed to the football field. Woodward is sadly lacking in play- grounds. If it were not for Wilson park, the boys would have no space at all. The girls, having but a small, rather incon- venient lot, often play on the gridiron which in most high schools is used only for regular football games. The football teams, too, have to practice on their playing field. The Board's purchase will help some- what to alleviate Woodward's need for more adequate playground space. Restored Rights T THE Woodward-DeVilbiss game last Tuesday, the bleachers were reserved for higher-paying spectators while students were forced to sit in the balcony. A verbal protest was made to athletic authorities at the game by several stu- dents, but nothing could be done at the time to alter the situation. However, at all of the remaining games, Woodward stu- dents will be permitted to sit either in the bleachers or the balcony for the regular student price. Since basketball games are played for them, and not for commercial interests, students should have the privilege of sit- ting where they please. tions that they have been unable tc check the rising lists of accidents, injuries, and deaths. Our capabilities in the matter of preserving life have not kept pace with the progress made in the refinement and perfec- tion of our machines. The safety program in the schools should in time materially decrease accidents and death caused by traffic violations. It will never be possible to reach perfection because of defects in old and nearly worn out ma- chines, physical defects in drivers, and the inherent selfishness of individuals who are unwilling to inconvenience themsevles momentarily to avoid accidents. They prefer to stake their automobiles and even their very lives against a few moments of time. Everyone is agreed that something drastic should be done. Traffic laws should be rigidly enforced. Private citizens witnessing viola- ations should have the authority to cause ar- rests. Finally everyone, pedestrians and driv- ers alike, should be taught the true meaning of safety in trafiic.

WOODWARD MEETS BULLDOGS TONIGHT Polar Bears Are Favorites Over Scott Quintet Ii City Tilt Woodward begins the second round of city league play in first place. The first obstacle in its march towards the city basket- ball championship will be the Scott Bulldogs who meet the Bears tonight at 7 o'clock in the Woodward gym. Scott held the Polar Bears to a four point margin when Wood- ward toppled them by a 32-28 score, but the Bears should an- nex another win to their string of victories. Florian Tschogl will again be the leading light in the fast Bear offense with Red Hiltman and Orville Swantek as his main scor- ing aids. Olen Boroughf will be in getting the tip off while Gus Schoonmaker will be the ace of the defense. Incidentally, this is the reason Gus has not scored so many points this season. Paul Kornowa will undoubtedly see service at forward while Walter Bojanowski and Alex Rapp will probably enter the game at center and guard respectively. Joe Kemp, center, and Harold DeBord, forward or guard, will be the Scotters' threats towards bucketing enough shots to top the Bears. Tatum, Brown, and Wearley round out the starting quintet, but the Bulldogs will probably insert Leonard and Pey- ton as substitutes. New Type Light Cages ' Installed In Gymnasium How many times while busily playing hit-pin, volleyball, or any sport which uses power behind the ball, has that sphere soared to meet with the lights in the girls gym where a heart-rending smash would announce that an- other bulb was broken, another cage torn loose from its bearing. Well, girls, those days are gone forever. A new shock-absorbing cage has replaced the old style but whether or not it can repulse our type of shock remains to be seen. Bear Cagers Rest At Loop Top At End Of First Round After the completion of the first round of play in the city basket- ball loop, Woodward is in undis- puted possession of first place with six games won and none lost for a thousand percentage. DeVilbiss, Central, and Waite are in a second place tie with four victories and two defeats. The standings at the end of the first round of play are: W L Pct. Woodward 6 0 1.000 DeVilbiss 4 2 .666 Central 4 2 .666 Waite 4 2 .666 Scott 2 4 .333 St. J ohn's 1 5 .166 Libbey 0 6 .000 THE WOODWARD TATTLER 13 GIRLS' TEAMS FORM 2 LEAGUES Intra-Mural Court Tourney Expected To Start Next Week Ushering in a girls' intra-mural basketball tournament is the en- rollment of thirteen teams in two different leagues. The American league consist- ing of six teams ificludes Jinx, managed by Mildred Raymerg Go- Getters, by Jeanette Levineg Huskies, Virginia Maverkosg and Seniors, Ann King. The Polar Bears and Zets have not yet cho- sen leaders. Seven teams comprise the Na- tional league, namely, Jinx, whose manager is Marcella Last- tong Go-Getters, Mary Jayne Frankowskig Junior Friendship, Helen Trautman, Woodward Ti- gers, Loretta Ignatowski, All Stars, Catherine Langloisg Polar Bears, Gladys Dimkeg and Husk- ies, Rita Hallett. When the tournament begins next week, four games will be played every night until each team has played every other team. This method will take ap- proximately two weeks. Tschogl Attacks Bill Reeves' Scoring Record of 180 Points Florian Tshogl continued his march on the present school's scoring record of 180 points es- tablished by Bill Reeves in 1934 when he was captain and center. Tish will undoubtedly top this record as his toatal for the games played this far is 133 points and there are six games remaining on the schedule. Red Hiltman still holds the second spot with 55 points while Orve Swantek's 44 point total boosted him from fifth to third position. Gus Schoonmaker ad- vanced from seventh to sixth place.

Wenslau, Board of Education business manager. This lot will be used by Woodward as an ad- dition to the present field. Cinders will be removed from the Central end of Otto street and grass will be allowed to grow. The fence at the end of the football field will be extended to enclose the lot which will be principally used for boys' and girls' gym classes. Plans for a new balcony for the boys gym are being made. This will make use of one of the light courts and also will enlarge the seating capacity for the basketball games. Score Guessing Armand Duquesne was the lucky boy who won the ticket to the Wood ward-DeVilbisscontest. He missed the correct score by nine points, but that margin was sufficient to defeat all other aspir- ing score guessers. The winner of this weekis contest will be awarded a free ticket to the Waite-Polar Bear tilt which will be played on February 14.

Journalist Declares N.R.A. Fine Piece Of Work fEditor's Note: This lecture was re- ported by Frances Dunn.3 Washington is in a state of turmoil due to the Supreme Court decision of the AAA, but this is not an unusual state these days, stated J . Frederick Essary, speaking on Lifting the Lid in Washington at Town Hall last Saturday, February 1. Essary, dean of Washington correspondents, mentioned that he had seen seven presidents come and six go, and that of all of them Teddy Roosevelt was the only one to leave happy. The speaker felt that the honor of being president was too expen- sive, costing much in grief, dis- appointments and doubtful re- wards. N. R. A. Declared Fine Concerning the N. R. A., the writer declared it the finest piece of legislation seen in his lifetime, but it was not given a fair chance. Its objectives were fine in theory but not in practice. And where are we going? Mr. Essary didn't know, but he re- ported that the morale of the country is improving, bank de- posits are swelling, bank failures are reducing, and the dividends on stocks are increasing. Bertha Payak, selected by Mr. Pollock, will hear Vash Young, author and philosopher, speak on New Actors on an Old Stage at Town Hall, Saturday morning February 8. Pupils Draw Figures First year art students under the supervision of Miss June Anderson are drawing figures from models. Different pupils are selected to pose for the various positions. I College Corner I fEditor's note: This is the fifth in a series of articles on information about Ohio Colleges gathered by the Honor society scholarship committee. Joseph Meyer has written this article.l Ohio Northern University, lo- cated at Ada, Ohio, has as its aim the development of cultural and professional objectives from the scientific and humanistic points of view. This institution is excellently equipped in the Liberal Arts Col- lege, and the field of education unit. It also has splendid facilities for the study of law, pharmacy, and engineering. The opportuni- ties for field work are notable, especially in the field of engi- neering. The library is steadily adding to its stock of books. Six endowed scholarships are offered each year, varying from 51950 to 8125. Students who belong to the Methodist E p i s c o p al Church may secure loans of S100 to S2000 from the Student Loah fund of the church. Minute Interview I Giving programs is very dif- ficult for me, but cooperation with some of the students is marvelous, stated Miss Mable Rutan, adviser of the Social Sci- ence club, in connection with the Washington Ball held last night in the girls' gym. Square dancing was the main feature of the evening. Mankato, Minnesota, is the birthplace of this history teacher. She attended grammar school and high school there, receiving her B. A. degree at the University of Minnesota and M. A. honors at the University of Chicago. Miss Rutan became adviser of the Social Science club five years ago when it was organized. This is her eighth year at Woodward. Before coming here, she taught school at Kankakie, Illinois, Liv- ingston, Montana, and Ashland, Wisconsin. Homeopathy, reading, and traveling are her chief hobbies--- and speaking of traveling, Miss Rutan remarked, I have enjoyed visiting the Canadian Rockies because of the lovely sunsets, and the chance to get out to Mother Nature, away from the noise of the city. Lucille Thabit Wins Letter Contest In Murphy's Class Lucille Thabit won the first prize in the letter writing contest sponsored by Miss Edith Mur- phyis seventh hour junior Eng- lish class, last Monday. Also sharing honors in the con- test were Zebalee Harper and Martha Murzynski, standing sec- ond and third place respectively. The three winners each re- ceived a box of stationary do- nated by Miss Murphy. Judges were Ruth Wegner, Ernest Swan, and David Davis. Hanham Selected Homer Hanham, Woodward gym instructor and varsity bas- ketball coach, was appointed to the position of athletic director of the Sam Davis health camp. This camp was originated to care for underweight children of grade school age. The age limit is twelve years. Do You Know That There are about 24 per cent more pupils in the halls having a good time conference hour than any other hour?fLunch time not includedl Four and one-half per cent of our student body is working for the Student council? Each hour approximately four pupils keep vigilance on each floor? If every teacher gave two hall passes during an hour there would be about one hundred and twenty of our illustrious students wandering around the building which is over one hundred per cent more than the busiest hour ---fConference hourl. BOYS ASSEMBLE AMPLIFYING UNIT A. R. Bitter A. R. Bittter and his radio and electricity classes have com- pleted the puplic address system for the auditorium. This port- able outfit consists of two loud speakers in varnished boxes, one for each side of the stage, two microphones, a fioor mike on a tall stand, and the other for use on a table, and an amplifying unit with a maximum output of 1 six watts. The microphones are connect- ed to the amplifier which is sup- plied with a 110 volt current and is in turn connected to the speak- er units. This outfit may be in- stalled in a few minutes in any room. Work on the loud speakers was done by Mr. Bitter's boys who recently assembled the am- plifier unit used. Miss Mable Rutan will use this system in her neutrality program Monday. Spelling Finals Are To Be Held Friday, February 14 Continued From Page 1 witness the finals.

The senior class production was de- cidedly of a light nature, the size of the audience fconsidering bad weather? clearly shows that Woodward enjoys this type of play. The players lived up to the ex- pectations of their fellow student. Margaret O'Connell drew a good many laughs with her ingenious portrayal of the fiighty Mrs. Rim- plegar. Several times Dale Os- walt saved an otherwise bad break by improvising in words or action. His clear, strong voice pleased the audience. Fine Performances Given Norman Zimmerman repeated his fine performance in Seventh Heavenn last year by his sympa- thetic portral of Ed in Three Cornered Moon. However, some of his best lines were missed by the audience. Bertha Payak should be mentioned for her unique interpretation of the Czechoslovakian maid. Although a minor part, her amusing ac- tions were the mainstay of the first act. Betty Dalzell was sophisticated Elizabeth to perfection, William Phifer and Theodore Nichpor were delightful for their boyish naturalness. Robert Keiter and Helen Raszko also gave fine per- formances.

Soph Class' Presentation Gets Numerous Criticisms Accent on Music, sophomore class play written by Norma Jean Allen, a junior, has been loudly proclaimed and criticized since last Thursday by the 545 observers. Champions of the production claim the musical entertainment to be unrivalled and the original hits Only a Kiss and Maybe It's None of My Business, sim- ply swell! Critics point out the names of freshmen, juniors, and even graduates listed in the cast. Orchestrations ofthe songs by James Moll, graduate, contrib- uted much to the success of the lyrics. The German band, Eddie Urban's accordion solo, song by the chorus, and the waitresses' dance were very entertaining. ,-i...-......l.. Q. D.

Young Advises Audience To Make The Most Of Life Be kind to yourself, stated Vash Young, author and lecturer, speaking to a Town Hall audience on New Actors on an Old Stagef' Saturday morning at 11 o'clock in the Commodore Perry Hotel. The speaker declared that he likes himself 'iswell,', treats him- self abundantly, and is so selfish that he won't fret or get angry because it interferes with his poise. In his younger years he led a wretched life, even willing to attempt suicide, but suddenly he realized that he was his worst enemy and decided to practice All you can have out of life is today. Greatest prizes that life has to offer are as free as the air that we breathf' commented Vash Young. Not money but all endur- ing traits of character and the art of making apologies are the things he considers prizes. In conclusion, Vash Young urged that people think of today as the last day of their lives and be kind to themselves. Miss Mabel Rutan will send Robert Adams to hear Col. W. Stewart-Roddie speak on Mat- ter of Moment, February 15.

I Hugh Montgomery His Memory Lingers On AST Wednesday, Woodward, in conjunc- tion with the entire nation, paused to honor the memory of a man born on that date 127 years ago. Throughout the width and breadth of the land, programs were sponsored proclaiming him the Great Efnancipator, the simple philosopher, the gaunt and haggard president, and above all, the humble man. Pupils, acquainted with his early life, should appreciate their own educational advantages more fully when they realize that Abraham Lincoln never attended school a complete year. His entire early ed- ucation was comprised of the three R's, taught by his mother, and reading ex- cerpts from the Bible and Pilgrim's Progress. Viewing these and many other impedi- ments which confronted him, the student of today will contemplate more thought- fully his own privileges and advantages offered in modern educational institutions. Every J uni0r's Duty OMORROW evening the junior class will hold its annual J-Hop. This dance is secondary in importance only to the sen' ior prom. The committee has worked hard over a long period of time to make this dance possible. First they were confronted with the task of securing signatures and collect- ing the money. Then came the bickering with hall authorities. To top it all, the cham- ber of Commerce ballroom will be decora- ted. This has not been done for a number of years. In appreciation of the committeeis work, and in loyalty to his class, every junior should be present at the dance tomorrow night. A Full Sports Program OODWARD will have a full sports program this spring. For the first time in four years, baseball will be repre- sented by a regular team. Tennis and track will be developed to greater extent while golf will continue as an excellently organ- ized sport. This rounding out of the sports program will give more students the opportunity of specializing in the sport in which they are interested. Woodward is also fortunate in having capable faculty members who are willing to coach these sports without pay.

In Our Library South Moon Under by Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings is the first tale describing the phase of American life which depicts the simple, uncuoth white people of the South. It is well for the young people of America to become acquainted with such obscure groups as the characters in the novel. Quite the opposite from the belligerent mountaineers we hear so much about, these people are gallant, brave, and peace- ful. One is completely lost in the tale and its characters, coming back with some re- lief and no reluctance to the modern thoroughly civilized every day life. The main characters in the story are the Lantrys who typify the slow moving habitants of the scrub of Florida. Life and death is all the same to Piety Lantry for she, like all scrub-dwellers, had learned in early childhood to bear all hardships, and this simple, hard-working little person will gain the reader's sympathy. Marjorie Rawlings writes with utter sim- plicity, weaving her tale with a strange, en- chanting setting for a background. The reader is introduced to scenes primeval that seem impossible to exist in such a for- ward country as America.

WOODWARD DROPS 'BULLDOG QUINTET Coach Hanham Puts Entire Team Into Scott Tiltg Tschogl Stars Behind the sharpshooting of Florian Tschogl, Woodward con- tinued its undefeated pace when Scott fell before the Bear offense 40-21, last Friday, in the Wood- ward gym. After a slow start, the Polar Bears consistently penetrated the Scott defense for a fifteen point lead due to Tschogl's work at forward when the gun sounded at the half. The second half found Wood- ward rapidly piling up points even when Homer Hanham put his entire squad of fourteen play- ers into the fray. The second team did exceptionally well, for. with the exception of Walter Boj- anowski, all were shorter than their Scott opponents by several inches. Tschogl bucketed seven from the field and five from the foul line for a high total of nineteen points. Red Hiltman, who ac- counted for six points, was sec- ond for Woodward while Don Wearley was tops for Scott. Woodward's reserves, though not displaying the speed and deception shown formerly, de- feated the Scott reserves. This was their seventh straight victo- ry in the city reserve league.

Meek an- nounced that Woodward will be represented by a baseball team in the city league. Connie Clark will be the mentor of the Polar Bear nine with L. J. Robie, his assistant on the lightweight grid- iron, aiding him. The Bears play each of the eight schools entered in the loop once. Schools entered in the league besides Woodward are Waite, Scott, Libbey, DeVilbiss, Central, St. J ohn's, andVocation- al. The season begins on April 27. Tracksters, who have already begun working, will toil under the leadership of Art Smith, Dave McMurray, and Homer Hanham. Howard Phipps will again be the coach when the golfers tee off this spring on April 28 with eight teams participating in this sport. There will be less competition for Frank Duvendack's racquet swingers as only six teams are entered in the city tennis league which begins play on April 28. All in all Woodward will have a busy spring sports program. Peiuper, Faculty Game Thurs- Will Help Pay Athletic Debt Third hour Thursday, Febru- ary 20, the Woodward faculty will meet the Peiuper club in a basketball game. The proceeds will go to help pay the Athletic debt. The faculty team will be com- posed of L. C. Clark, L. J.

POLAR BEARS MEET INDIANS, ST. JOHN'S Woodward Tackles Largest Obstacle In Advance For Cage Title Woodward's undefeated bas- ketball squad will try for its twelfth straight victory when it meets Waite's fast stepping In- dians tonight in the Bear gym. After a disappointing start, the Indians started to click near the end of the first round of play and upset the defending champion DeVilbiss quintet. Although the Bears hold a 27-22 win over the Waite team in the first round, a tough battle is expected. Al Price and Alex Urban will at- tempt to cutscore Florian Tschogl, the Polar Bear power- house forward. Durwood Wight, Jim Bauman, and Bill Ryan fill out the remainder of the lineup. Knights Injured Without the services of most of its regular squad, St. John's will meet the Bears Tuesday, Feb- ruary 18, in its own gym. Al- though they have the advantage of playing on their own floor, the Knights will miss Captain John- ny Higgins and Bill Thompson who are out because of injuries. This will add to the odds given to the undefeated Polar Bears. The lineup for Woodward, which probably will be the same for both games, includes Tschogl and Hiltman, forwards, Swantek and Schoonmaker, guards, and Boroughf at center. Reserve games will precede both of these contests as Captain Boykin leads his undefeated team against the Papooses and the junior Knights. Score Gues-sing I Whereas Edwin Rodeheffer submitted a score guessing en- tree last week and whereas he, among all contestants guessed Woodward 40---Scott 20, and whereas no person came closer than one point off, certain privi- leges are attached and accompa- ny the Rodeheffer slip. Chief among them is one ticket to ex- change for one seat at the Waite- Woodward fray this evening. Perhaps you people not named Edwin Rodeheffer are not too downhearted at losing and if so try your luck again by using the blank below, depositing it in the box at room 122 tonight. Score guessing will be continued for the away-from-home games to- night's winner receiving a pass to the St. Johns game, Feb. 18. Name .,........ .,.. .,.....,... , .,....................

THIS YEAR May 2 Is Date For District- State Scholarship Contests With the hope that interest in scholastic endeavor will be in- creased, the District-State Schol- arship tests will be given Satur- day, May 2, at Bowling Geeen University to which Woodward department heads expect to send a full team of 30 persons. The subjects in which the stu- dents may compete for district and state team honors as well as for district and individual honors are as follows: chemistry, general science, physics, first year alge- bra, plane geometry, American history, world history, 9, 10, 11, and 12 year English, first and second year Latin, and first and second year French. The adviso- ry committee voted to eliminate Spanish and German from the subjects of the contests because of the very small number of par- ticipants in the languages in 1935. Two members will be enteredin each particular subject. Since the primary objective of the contest is to stir up a large body of students to greater inter- est in education, a new ruling states no student shall be se- lected as a representative of a team prior to April 1, 1936. This will eliminate the intensive drilling of a few as has been the custom in previous years. A pupil entering can take a test in only one subject. Culver Military Academy Awards Two Scholarships Two 5153300 scholarships are be- ing offered to Ohio high school students by the directors of Cul- ver Military Academy including all expenses for board, room, and tuition for three school years. The winning student must have sufficient funds for uniforms, text books, and personal needs which will amount to 35450 the first year and about S5250 each year thereafter. To be eligible for these scholar- ships the pupil must not be less than thirteen nor more than fif- teen years ofage on April 1, 1936, must be in the ninth or first half of the tenth grade, must not be less than five ft. one in. in height, must be in good health and phys- ical conditiong must have resided in Ohio since January 1, 19355 and he must have the recom- mendation of Principal LaRue. Anyone desiring further in- formation may gain same by con- tacting E. L. Clark.

Physiology Students Test Strength Of Arm Muscles While studying the muscles of the human bodv in Mrs. Mary O'Brien's fourth hour physiology class, a contest was held last Fri- day, February 7, to see which stu- dent could hold a two pound book the longest at arms length, even with the shoulder. After one minute, arms went down, more after two minutes, still more for every minute. After a ten minute period, Bruce Lumley, Walter Fulmer, and Donald Herr still remained with the weights uplifted. Although very fatigued, the veins on the face showing terrifiic strain and the lungs gasping for air, the remaining contestants continued to hold out for 11 minutes and 15 seconds when the contest was called off because of lack of time. This beats a former physiology student, Bull Dawson, by one minute 15 seconds. Do you think you could hold it that long? Try it sometime. Scholarships Open To Girls At Pennsylvania Institute Drexel Institute of Philadel- phia, is offering five scholarship grants, valued at 95200, to young women in the states of Connecti- cut, Ohio, Vlest Virginia, Vir- ginia, North Carolina, and South Carolina.

These plans willprobably be utilized to make presses for botany rooms all over the city. LOCAL BEAUS SEND GIRLS VALENTINES Everything From Candles To J-Hop Invitations Are Received Lacy valentines are in order for many fair ones in the dear Alma Mater---these boys do change their minds so often. Walter Bishop spent an hour picking one for Carol Ericson, and Dorothy Smith is going to send Eddie Pryzmierski a comic valetine since that spat. James Richardson would be showered with valentines from every girl in Woodward if we tried to name his heart's inter- ests---Blanche Ruhland would love to receive a message from Chuck Hoskins. Oh say, have you heard that Mildred Parks is waiting for a heart belonging to Frank Scott. Martha Murzynski can't decide what kind of valentine she would like to receive from Gale Wean- er, but maybe the J-Hop is enough. Colette Jenson received a very flowery missle from a cer- tain person called Ben, but he doesn't attend Woodward, worse luck! Cupid has been helping Clement Mikolajczyk with his newest romance---Viola Payak. By the way, Lula Bell Holbrook and Gail Plush find time to ex- change valentines too, while Frieda Sederenke and Alex Ewanchuck are bringing up the rear bearing their hearts---are they exchanging? Billy Blocnier nearly burst laughing over the comic valentine he received from Juliet Sear. Ethel Schiedler tells us Billy Bondy is very generous with his valentines tshe ought to know since she received a box of candyo lf this chatter doesn't stop soon, I'll be receiving brick bats instead ofvalentines--- O, if I had wings of Dan Cupid!

The production will be shown in the Doerman Theater at the university. Letter To The Editor Dear Editor: What kind of a reputation does our school have in the eyes of those not acquainted with us? This question should vitally in- terest every loyal Woodwardite. At the close of the recent J- Hop, a member of the junior class was told by the head floor man that the conduct ofthe group that evening was the best of any school dance ever held at that ballroom. Yet the age-old truth that there are two sides to every story holds true in this case. It seems that seldom have students ridden home on the street car from bas- ketball games held here at Wood- ward that they have failed to break a window or tear down advertisements. Certainly reports like the lat- ter can do us no good as far as our reputation is concerned. Gale Weaner Junior class president. Scholarships Open In a recent communication from Chicagf University received by E. L. Clark, guidance director, it was learned that there are a number of scholarships open at that institution. For further de- tails see Mr. Clark. Miss Ward Tickets for WoodWard's fest- ival, April 24, will be sold on a competitive basis with each class, home room, and individual com- peting.

Judging from his farewell message to Congress, we feel he would emphatically avoid all foreign entanglements. That much is certain. Vandalism ECENTLY a complete row of lockers in the boys' gym was broken open and plundered. This action has prevented sev- eral students, financially unable to replace the stolen articles, from participation in class work. An investigation may help to clear up the matter. - Orchids To You HE Engineering society has paid thir- teen bills from the proceeds of candy sales. The Peiuper club also has aided the athletic commission by devoting the re- ceipts of the Peiuper-Faculty basketball game to this same purpose. Think It Over HIS year the Tattler will again award an achievement cup to the most out- standing senior. Although this student will be chosen by a faculty committee, every senior will be asked to recommend a can- didate. We hope that fourth year students will begin to consider the matter now, so that unbiased, helpful suggestions can be given ater.

Thus we do not have one without the other. There is something fascinating about the above facts and strangely enough, the prin- ciples underlying them may be applied to human behavior. During the World War the American soldiers were always kept in the very best physical condition that their posi- tion would allow. They had to bathe, shave, keep their teeth brushed, and their clothes clean. This was often accomplished under the most trying circumstances. The leaders knew that a lapse into careless and uncouth habits of dress or bodily care had a direct bearing upon soldier morale, and the latter was counted on to win the war. As a usual thing filthy, unkempt, littered surroundings portray a similar type of mind. Outside of a natural pride to be seen always at our best, we keep our homes and places of business clean and orderly for the stimulat- ing effect upon ourselves. It is j ust as important in our school.The neat- ness of our halls and classrooms react upon the thinking, the habits, and the morale of all of us. It is a community job. Each one of us should strive to attain a perfection of order and cleanliness in our building and each of us will share in the benefits and the pride of at- tainment. 1 Woody Woodward Colonel Woodrow Woodward ATTENTION!!

Woodward Punctuality was one of Washington's strong points. When company was invited to dinner, he made an allowance of only five minutes for variations in watches. Punctuality is also one of Henrietta Rump's strong points. She always sets her watch five minutes fast to make it look as if she's on time. ' . . The pleasant side of Washington's char- acter was shown with his step children. He was often found ordering from London articles such as N10 shilling worth of toys, six little books for beginners, one fashion- able dressed baby, and a box of ginger bread toys or sugar cakes. The pleasant side of Richard Schumak- er's character was shown when he was found in VJoolworth's Five and Ten buying china dolls and Valentines, not for his step children but.for himself. The popular idea that Washington never laughed is well nigh exploded when Nelly Curtis said I have sometimes made him laugh most heartily from sympathy with my joyous and extravagant spirits. The well known fact that William Klat- zel never smiles is blown to bits when one watches him indulge in his noon-day meal in the school cafeteria. Those Little White Lies 3,-128,79 little white lies are told daily in and about Woodward---the Cochran-Wag- ner quartette seems to have signed an un- breakable peace pact---Sylvia Kisiel and Louis Sieczkowski are slashing all records for truthfulness---the effects of the fibsf?l on last week's comic valentines have just about worn off, but Dorothy Wise and Virginia Otto still remember those Hatter- ing caricatures---Charlotte Wood is a direct descendant of the famous George Wash- ington---we wonder if the trio of Virginia Slupecki, Edna Taylor, and Stella Radon are really the man-haters they pretend to be---we hate to spoil illusions, but Georgie Washington really didn't cut down that famous cherry tree---the C.C.C. boys did it. 4 POLAR BEARS WIN EIGHTH CITY GAME Waite Redskins Fail To Halt Woodward's March To City Title Woodward's Polar Bears moved one step nearer the 1936 basketball title last Friday, with eight wins in the city league, bv defeating the Waite Indians in the north end gym, 'ithe Tschogl scoring only two points less than the whole nineteen for the Red- skins. After the 41-19 Woodward victory, the Waite team found Wight high with four baskets. Al Price only managed to get one score through the close guarding of Gus Schoonmaker, and the two centers, Boroughf and Bojan- owski, kept the elongated Urban to one goal and one foul. Players See Action Swantek, Woodward, tossed three fouls and made two goals to follow Tschogl. Schoonmaker opened up once and tied Swantek with seven points. Hanham's boys got off to a slow start but were leading 15-8 at the half. The score ofthe first game with Waite, played on its own floor with Snider in the lineup, was Wood- ward 27, Waite 22.

Woodward Continues Hold On City Cage League Lead Woodward still holds a wide margin over Central and Waite, its nearest competitors, in the city basketball league standings. The Indians and Irish still re- tain a mathematical chance to tie and one of them might win THE WOODWARD TATTLER COWBOYS DEFEAT BEAR TRACK TEAM Thinclads Scheduled To Meet DeVilbiss Team This Afternoon Woodward tracksters were de- feated 79Pg-30LQ by Libbey in their first indoor meet, which was held on the Libbey track last Friday after school. Most of the Bear points were scored in events that were run in the hall. The Libbey track is small and caused the runners from Woodward, who were not used to it, much trouble. The Woodward thinclads were able to gain 3 first, 4 second, and 4 third places for a total of 302 points. Szczepaniak Leads Edward Szczepaniak gained a first in the high jump, a second in the low hurdles, and a third in the high hurdles for a total of 9 points to lead the Bear scorers. The other Woodward tracksters that scored were Lucian Lupin- ski, first place in the shot putg Earnest Swan, first in the 65 yard dash, Morris Rappaport, second in the 220 yard dash, and third in the 65-yard dash, Lowell Weaner, second in the 880 yard rung Charles Kosbab, third in the 440 yard dashg Anthony Milan- owski, tied for third in the high jump, and Robinson, second in the 65 yard dash. After school today, the Bears will meet the DeVilbiss squad in a dual meet at DeVilbiss. With the experience gained last week the Woodward track team should be able to give DeVilbiss more competition. Florian Tschogl Leads City In Individual Scoring Race With plain and fancy shooting, Florian Tschogl has run his total to 169 points to lead the city in individual scoring. 'Tish' has 76 goals and 17 fouls to his credit. Red Hiltman still clings to the second spot while Orve Swantek has a strong grip on third place.

This trophy was a partner of a similar trophy given for football which now rests in the Waite trophy case. Woodward Cagers Add Ninth Straight Victory Of Season Behind the basket tossing of Florian Tschogl and Red Hilt- man, Woodward remped to their thirteenth consecutive win of the current season when they top- pled St. John's Knights by a 37- 23 count. The Polar Bears broke into an easy 16-3 lead and at half time the score was 22-9, for Wood- ward held St. John's to but 12 shots. Red Hiltman with twelve points and Tish Tschogl with nine points led the Woodward basketeers while Thompson was high man for the Knights. The Bear reserves won over the junior Knights by the 23-14 count to run their string to twen- ty-nine straight wins. BEARS TO TACKLE LIBBEY, CENTRAL Blue And White To Attempt 5 To Repeat Former Victories Entering the final week of com- petition, Homer Hanham's league leading Polar Bears face some stiff opposition when they meet the rejuvenated Libbey Cowboys Friday, February 21,and on the following Tuesday, February 25, they tackle Al Sacksteder's Cen- tral quintet. In Libbey, Woodward has a foe, though easily beaten in the first round, to be respected. The Cowboys dropped six straight league games before toppling Central, Scott. and DeVilbiss in order. Libbey will have Big Bill Hoff- man and Ed Schmidt as its main threats while Ernie Pinnegar, Al Jachimiak, and Hemsoth fill out the squad. P'lay Irish At Home Central, one of Libbey's victims and toppled previously by Wood- ward 33-13, will be host to the Bears in their next to the last game. Iggy Drzazdrzynski after a poor beginning is showing some of the promise of last year and teamed with George Holtgrieve, tall center, should provide Wood- ward with some competition. Carl Costell, George Zilba, and Norb Miller round out the Irish squad. Captain Florian Tschogl, city high scorer, will again lead the Bears into action. Olen Borough, at center, Gus Schoonmaker, and Orve Swantek, at guards, and Red Hiltman at the other forward post, will be out to clinch the city title. The Bear Reserves who have a lengthy string of victories will again start the evenings off' with the preliminary battle at 7:00. Score Guessing I Bob Stack, member ofthe Bear Reserves, is elevated to the score Buessing hall of fame for his per- fect guess on the Woodward- Waite tilt. For this act he re- ceiiveda ticket to the St. John's ti t. Bob was the first to enter a per- fect score this year for either a basketball or grid tilt. Maybe you guessers are not as expert as Bob Stack who has the advantage of being a participant in the cage game, but you can endeavor to win a pass to the Central tilt by placing in the blank below the most nearly cor- rect supposition as to the score of the Woodward-Libbey game tonight.

WOODW HD POL H BEARS CLI CH CITY CH IVIPIO HIP DWOODWARD TOPPLES COWBOYS, Q IRISH FOR UNDEFEATED STATUS Championship Is First Since 1930, Fourth Official Title Of Athletic History, News Bee's Trophy Accompanies Title With ten straight victories, Woodwardls 'basketball team crowned itself champion of the city league after defeating Libbey on the Cowboy's floor, 35-24. The following Tuesday, February 25, Florian Tschogl made eighteen points against Central to help win the eleventh victory and the hardest earned game of the current season. The final score was 34-24, but this lead was not gained until the last part of the final quarter, since Central used? g'- 'i'- '-'-m'- its small fioor to advanta e the' 8 first three quarters, going into the last stanza leading 24-18. From then on the Irish did not make a basket while the Bears proved themselves of champion- ship calibre by adding sixteen points to their score. Guard Schoonmaker was the sparkplug of this fourth quarter rally and made one ofthe most spectacular plays of the season, dribbling through a horde of Central arms and legs to score from an impos- sible angle, and landing on his knees with a thud several feet beyond the back-board. Bears Defeat Libbey Starting slowly, the Bears were held by the Libbey Cow- boys to a three-all count at the end of the first quarter in their game last Friday. Red Hiltman then popped two goals to give Woodward a lead which it never relinquished, and at half time the Bears had registered an 18-6 lead. In the final half the Cow- punchers outscored Woodward by one point, but it was insuffi- cient to overcome the Bears. Florian Tschogl was again the leading light in the Polar Bear attack with fifteen points while Olen Boroughf stood out on de- fense. Hoffman's nine points were high for Libbey. Practice Teacher Here Peter Skalkos, a Toledo Uni- versity student, is doing practice teaching in Miss Adrienne Curtis' seventh hour first year French class.

The identity of the royal couple has not been disclosed and those who ,Lattend the dance tonight are in for a big surprise. Each year the Co-ed Prom has been set aside for the girls to have a good time without the impediment of boys, but this year is leap year and besides it's been a strain on many a teacher at former Co-ed Proms to figure out Whether this ticket holder is a girl or that one is a boy in mas- querade, so boys will be allowed in after 9:30, at which time the king and queen will be officially crowned. Novel Decorations Jack Bustow and his orchestra will give you music from 8 to 11 and there will be refreshments and prizes.The decorations which carry out the leap year idea in black and white silhouettes, will give the girls a few pointers on how to get their men.

The team has acquired the News Bee trophy and is now eager to capture the district title. The team can't be mentioned without the coach.

He let them play their own game. They did---and won. A combination of Homer Hanhamfs coaching and excellent basketball mater- ial won that championship. Vocational Guidance IX years ago, the Hi-Y clubs of Toledo organized annual vocational guidance programs for junior and senior boys. These programs are in keeping with Hi-Y ideals of service.

Name ............... .. ..... .. Home Room ......... ....... POLAR BEARS PLAY FINAL TILT TONIGHT DeVilbiss Quintet Attempts To Upset Undefeated City Champions Homer Hanham's warriors of the hardwood will be fighting to maintain their undefeated record when they meet the defending champion DeVilbiss quintet in the Tiger gym. The Tigers are tied for second place with Central in the city league at present and will be striving to hand the Polar Bears their first defeat of the season to maintain their position. If the Bears down DeVilbiss, they will be the first team in many years to boast an unblemished record throughout a complete season. This also will add to the prestige of Homer Hanham as a cage mentor. Coach Harry Rice will depend upon Marshall Carlson for a great deal of the point getting with Roy Lee assisting at the other forward berth. Jack Patterson and May- nard Simon will attempt to hold Woodward's high scoring offen- sive in check. Dick Haag will bat- tle for the tip off to complete the Tiger lineup. In the final regular scheduled game of the season, Woodward will take the fioor with the usual team of Florian Tschogl and Red Hlltman at forwards, Orville Swantek and Gus Schoonmaker at guards, and Olen Boroughf at the pivot position. Rules Gommittee Changes Grid Code For 1936 Season Changes made by the National Football Rules committee in the 1936 grid code were disclosed Monday, February 17, after three days of secret meetings. The first change is A blocked kick which does not pass the scrimmage line may be advanced by either team. Previously the kicking team could not advance the ball. Second, the slow whis- tle was eliminated because it resulted in too many injuries. More Rules The board decided that the use of 'screen' players should be tight- ened. Screen players are those ineligible for a forward pass, and they may not advance beyond the point where the pass is caught, intercepted, or falls incomplete, nor may they obstruct the view of any opponent. Violators are pen- alized the same as for pass inter- ference. No warning will be given to teams to return to the field during the rest period between halves. A recommendation asks that six-inch block numerals be worn on the front of the jersey, with eight-inch numerals on the back. This will not be enforced by penalties.

In- spired by the view, she took out her water colors and painted a sketch entitled Winter Scene. The result was that it was en- tered in the Toledo Women Art- ists display at Mohr Art Galleries. This picture, which shows snow-covered yards, was- pub- lished in the Toledo Sunday Times, February 23. Tattler Members To Attend Journalism Lecture At T. U.

I Minute Interview Miss Curtis Dashing madly back and forth, dodging ladders, and holding rolls of crepe paper while a di- minutive little lady answered questions, I gradually gleaned the following pointers on A. C. C. fMiss Adrienne Curtis to you.J Although it appeared that her hobby was carrying out orders concerning decorations for a Co-ed Prom, she soon disclosed that a secret passion was com- posing poetry. Not that I can, but I used to be moderately suc- cessful until I began teaching school---now that is my biggest interest? Nevertheless, her two loves are poetry and music. Her blue eyes fthe kind we read about in romantic booksi twinkled when this inquiring person asked Miss Curtis what she thinks of Leap Year. The answer was quickly given, I Welcome it, but donit think I'll do anything unusual---why, if it were in me to really do anything out ofthe ordinary, I would have done it a long time ago, without wait- ing for L'Annee Bissextile 1Leap Year.J', Travelling has always inter- ested the adventuresome peda- gogue. fl can call her that because she has a Masters degree from Columbiaj From France, Mexico, Germany, Austria. Switzerland, Czechoslovakia, and Canada she chooses Switzerland as her favor- ite---purely for the beautiful coun- try itself. 'iNo, my ancestors didn't come over on the Mayflower my grandmother is from Brittany--- my mother and myself are full- blooded Toledoansf' was the re- ply to the age old question of or- igin and birthplace. I I WINNING DEBATERS ENTER CITY FINALS Knoke, Schulisch Declared Best By 3 Judges In Contest Walter Schulisch, adirmative speaker, and Donald Knoke, neg- ative, were selected winners from a group of five contestants by judges C. C. LaRue, Miss Emily Strachan, and Miss Mable Rutan to represent Woodward in the city finals of the debate Should Ohio Adopt a One House Legis- lature sponsored by the Scripps- Howard interests throughout Ohio. The city-wide debate has been scheduled to occur during the week of March 28 in the auditorium. Economy and rapidity of legis- lation were main points of the affirmative while greater deliber- ation, tradition, and centuries of experience were the mainstays of the negative. It is evident from the decision that delivery and force of manner played a major part in it. Material, research, originality, delivery, diction, and force of opinion were details con- sidered by the judges in deciding the winners. Other sneakers were Arthur Sievert and Elva Landwehr, af- firmative, and Rita Loerke, nega- tive. Miss Edith Muryhy, public speaking instructor, selected the contestants and provided refer- ence material. Clubs Give Skit Third hour today, boys of the German and Spanish clubs pre- sented a comedy skit entitled A Womanless Wedding for holders of activities tickets. The production was under the direc- tion of Miss Annie Wetterman. To See Play Play Shop is sending Betty Mae Dalzell, Shirley Oswalt, Dale Oswalt, and Donald Anthony to view Three Men On a Horse Monday evening, March 2, at the Paramount Theater. The club aims to send mem- bers to all the productions which play here. Town Hall Hears L. Lewisohn Literature is national rather than universal, stated Ludwig Lewisohn, noted author, in a Town Hall lecture last Saturday morn- ing, February 22. The speaker remarked that writing must be rooted in ethnic soil and then it may achieve universitality. He told of Homer, who wrote for a handful of Ionic speaking persons, but never dreamed that his Odyssey would be the most -thrilling piece of poetry today. There is no such thing as an abstract human being and so there can be no such thing as a ,book in the abstract, the speak- er asserted. A book must be in' digenous to the people from which it springs. Just as a tree grows in soil that nourishes it, a book gets its root in some spe- cific land, Lewisohn continued. Although America has no lan- iguage of its own, it is building up a literature that must be based on national heroes, he pointed out. 5 Dr. Alfred Adler, world famous ,Viennese psychologist, will con- clude the Town Hall series, next Saturday, with his talk on Prob- lems of Personal Conduct, to which Charles Worf is sending Evelyn Grubb. CONTESTS SWAMP WOODWARD PUPILS Charm Girl, Spelling Champ, Debate Title Sought By Students Are you charming? Or hand- some? Perhaps you're clever. Or could it be that youlre a great ora- tor? Whatever you are, whatever you do, there's a place for you in a contest. Major Bowes may have start- ed amateur hours, but the Little Theatre Guild has launched the most charming junior girl con- test. For days certain darling dol- lies have been brushing up on their particular charms---Lucille Grubinski rolls her eyes for min- utes at a time, my dear, while Mary Helen Trame is fiashing her dimples right and left! Virginia Baker CGinger to you? is tops when it comes to blonde tresses ---whoa if this keeps up we'11 have the perfect junior miss. Now, if you don't think you're charming you can always join a spelling bee. It seems to have stung everyone on purpose! Steve Slandzick and Charles Koss were found in a remote corner trying to out-do each other in swallow- ing huge dictionaries, but we couldnit catch Eugene Weed do- ing anything like that unless he took it in small doses. Yes, yes, yes, shout Walter Schulisch, Art Sievert and Alve Landwehr---what is it? Why they're developing their oratory powers for the debate to resolve that Ohio should have a one- house legislature. There are contests too numer- ous to mention ready to take you in so donit hesitate to bring forth your light from under the bushel and get in the contest swing! Gayety Night Gayety Night has been se- lected as the name for Wood- ward's festival, held April 24, by Miss Louise Tippett, Miss Adrienne Curtis, and A. Dean Johnson who judged the con- test. The winning name was submitted by Jennie Nowak, a senior girl, who will be awared the prize of 82.50. Confronted with the query as to what she would do with the prize, she blushingly re- marked, Oh, I'll probably add something to it and geta new dress! .

Head Advises Boys , To Choose Vocations Early In twenty years from now you will just be entering the most interesting and energetic part of your life, asserted Philip Nash, president of Toledo University, as he spoke to the junior and sen- ior boys last Monday at the first in the series of vocational guid- ance talks. Mr. Nash said that there are so many accidents, both good and bad, that it is impossible to pre- dict any one boy's future. In gen- Qeral, it is those students in the fupper half of their class scholas- 'tically that later are in the top ,half of the salary bracket. To come to a vocational decision as jearly as possible is very impor- tant, and to do this, one must study himself in relation with other men. Advice On College In answer to the question ShouldI go to college? Mr. Nash spoke of a study of sixty- three government executives. Fifty-six of these had a college education representing forty dif- ferent institutions. About Toledo University, Mr. Nash said that it provides a chance for an educa- tion for any student who is will- ing to work. Dr. Paul Hohly, well known physician, will speak at the second in a series of Hi-Y voca- tional guidance programs on Monday, March 9, during third hour. In his talk Dr. Hohly will enlighten all interested junior and senior boys to the educa- tional and financial needs of be- fcoming a doctor 3 , . FACULTY SENDS LETTER T0 SENATORS Through the efforts of Miss K. D. Brown, Spring Junior high in' structor, members of the Wood- ward faculty sent a letter to Senator Victor Donahey and Senator Robert Bulkley, last Fri- day, February 28, urging them to support the Kerr bill, protesting against the Alien Deportation act now in force. Miss Brown, who is on the board of the Cause and Cure of War council, representing the Women's Trade Union league, learned at the annual banquet of the council, that the Kerr bill was in a precarious position be- cause not enough interest was shown by the people to make the congressmen realize the impor- tance of it. If the Kerr bill is passed, it will prevent the unjust, needless, and tragic family separations when one foreign-born member is de- ported. After Miss Brown had interested some of the faculty members in the matter, James Pollock and Frank Duvendack drew up the letter which was signed by Principal LaRue and Edna McLaughlin, director of social studies, and sent to Wash- ington by air-mail. Monday morn- ing Mr. LaRue received a letter of acknowledgement from Sena- tor Bulkley. SALES ARRANGED Principal.

Follow The Team AST night marked the beginning of the district basketball tournament which closes Friday, March 13. Although the Toledo University where games are being held is not conveniently located, Woodward students should try to attend as many of these tilts as possible. A rousing cheering section often spells the difference between victory and defeat. ii-iT., Hurray! An Excuse HERE were 121 more unsatisfactories issued this year than last. In past years when the number of unsatS was dutifully deplored in this column, to make excuses was unheard of. This year we dare to be different. This year may we timidly suggest that the zero weather pos- sibly had a hand in it?---that frequent ab- sences on the part of students caused a general lowering of grades? To appease the indignation of those who disagree, we obediently publish in brief our well-known quarterly exhortation: You've been bad children. We hope you'll do better next time.

Thirty musicians performed their best in repre- senting Woodward at events this year. The graduation of seven members will lessen efficiency of this musical organization. Will the band be able to encourage and help the athletic teams spread the spirit of Woodward throughout the city and state next year with only twenty-three members? A lot depends on the incoming freshmen in supplying the missing links. The student body should encourage freshmen musicians as Well as other Woodward students playing instruments to join. Plans for making the best playing and marching unit in the city will not be suc- cessful unless sufficient material is acquired to make it so. Student body, the band needs your atten- tion and encouragement! Musicians, the band needs you! tsignedl Dan Krzyzaniak Drum Major. In Our Library The Bright Land by Janet Ayer Fair- bank is a delightful story covering the period between Andrew J ackson's presi- dency and the years of Reconstruction after the Civil War. Abby-Delight, the chief character in this new novel was given the peculiar name because Abby stood for her New England inheritance and Delight was the fruit of her romantic mother's ideas. Abby was born in New Hampshire when Jackson was president, and traveled westward by stagecoach, primitive railroad, and roman- tic canalboat to the Mississippi Valley. During the Civil War she experiences the heartaches and thrills that all women of that period lived through. This novel is outstanding because it de- picts vividly and realistically the changing civilization and a woman's realization of her true place in life. It is a thrilling nov- el written in such an interesting manner that the reader is held spellbound through- out the story.

The frosh have defeated all city teams once After dropping two consecu- tive games in league play the first to Libbey and the second to Central's Irish, Woodwa1'd's re- serves pulled themselves to- gether in the closing minutes of their game with DeVilbiss to top the Tigers by a single point, 25- 24, to bring the fifth reserve championship in six years to Woodward's portals. The game which was exceed' ingly rough found the Cubs trail' ing at the half when DeVilbiss after a first quarter spurt coasted to a 17-13 lead. The Bears put themselves ahead with a last quarter rally. Chuck Hoskins, Johnny Ford, and Sylvester J aswiecki were the pace Setters for the Woodward quintet while Gene Schaefer, former Woodwardite, topped the Tigers.

DeVilbiss took advantage when the Bears cracked under the ter- rific st-rain of completing an un- defeated season and downed Woodward by a slim margin of four points when they met in the seasonfs finale Friday, Feb- ruary 28. The Tigers held a 25-21 advantage when the final whistle was blown. DeVilbiss jumped into an early lead before the Bears could find themselves and get their power- ful offensive started. Roy Lee and Marshall Carlson set the pace for the Tigers while the Bears' passing was erratic and their fouls were numerous. A final spurt by the Polar Bears brought them within strik- ing distance, but time cut the rally short by four points. Flor- ian Tschogl, the city's leading scorer, added eleven points to his season's total while Jack Patterson was high for the Ti- gers with nine points.

ADLER ADDRESSES TOWN HALL GROUP Famed Psychologist Classes Humans Into Three Divisions lf one can learn a personls style or personality, one can pre- dict his future conduct, emphat- ically declared Dr. Alfred Adler, eminent Viennese psychologist, before a receptive Town Hall au- dience last Saturday morning. Dr. Adler stated that there are three types of individuals. The personality of a child is deter- mined and fixed at the age of three to fcur. The first type is ex- termely aggressive, always try- ing to get ahead, and although very active, has little or no social interest. Examples of this class usually become delinquents, or, if confronted with seemingly insur- mountable obstacles, suicides. These, he claims, can be corrected in early childhood by merely giving them more social interest. The second type is exactly the opposite, being timid, quiet, self- conscious, always leaning on others, and expecting things to be done for them. Pampered children would come under this classification although, contrary to a prevalent belief, a neglected child can pamper himself. These usually suffer nervous break- downs when facing the crisis of later life and eventually become neurotics. They also could be cured in adolescence if parents could teach them independency of thought and action and would try to overcome their inferiority complexes. The third, or, as it is often re- ferred to, the ideal type is as its name implies. Courageous, hav- ing an interest in the welfare of others, the person with this per- sonality is most generally a success in life. Principal, Wife Crowned As reigning sovereigns at the Co-ed Prom last Friday evening, Principal and Mrs. Charles C. La- Rue were crowned royal king and queen. The following students were chosen by the new rulers to receive costume prizes: single, Bille Craig, funniest single, Cath- erine Berry, most original single, Mildred King, prettiest couple Marcella Wlodarczyk and Alice Wozny, most original couple, Ruth Isaacson and Lois Liebes, funniest couple, Mary Williams and Wilma Cole. Red Cross Lays Plans Junior Red Cross associa- tion, supervised by Mrs. Mary O'Brien, will start correspond- ence with France, Hawaii, Bel- gium, and Ireland as soon as the group is well organized.

Here is our answer: Tattler news editors make a religious, unbiased collection of news. In fact, their list of stories is so large that there is an overliow of copy every week. The question then is, which stories to select? That problem is not ours. Since we are spared the labor of counting words, the print shop assumes all responsibility of making the stories fit the page. Often one article fits the space where another would not. For this impartial reason only, one story is printed in preference to another. Future Tattlers will contain shorter arti- cles. With more news and more stories, we hope to please more of our readers. Follow Suit EMEMBER those zero weather days? Remember when the ground was frozen so hard that everyone, without evoking reproach, took a short cut across the cam- pus now and then? A few faculty members even parked their cars up over the curb. But now everything is different. Warm- er weather has transformed the earth from a crusty, unresponsive old man into a soft, dimpled baby impressed by everything, including feet and automobile tires. Teachers immediately removed their machines from the grass. Are we going to do the same with our feet? A Good Omen OODWARD is collecting titles this year. Both varsity, reserve, and fresh-I man basketball teams hold city champion- ship titles. Last Saturday at the spelling contest, our entrant emerged from the struggle with a championship title in spell- ing. The latter part of this month will find two senior boys trying to acquire another title for Woodward in the Scripps-Howard de- bating contest. Perhaps the four titles al- ready acquired will prove a good omen and Vtiflqodward will soon find itself holding a fi t . ' , ' PRINCIPALIPOINTS By C. C. LaRue K In the February, 1934, number of the Atlantic Monthly, Johnson I Q O'Connor contributed an article en- titled Vocabulary and Success. ' ,. The gist of this production is a de- scription of a vocabulary test de- vised by the author while at Stev- en's Institute. It is a list of words, one hun- dred and fifty in number, printed in italics and used in a short phrase. Following the phrase is a list of four or five words each of which will fit the phrase but only one of which is the exact synonym of the test word. In the thousands of tests conducted over the country, high school freshmen average seventy-six er- rors, college freshmen, forty-two, college grad- uates, twenty-seven, college professors, eightg and major executives, seven. One of the conclusions drawn from these tests is that a large vocabulary is typical of successful individuals. Even major executives who had worked their way to the top in their businesses without the aid ofa college educa- tion invariably made a high score in the test. It is not hard to understand the correlation be- tween exact diction and worldly success. Our mother tongue is our only successful means of communication. No matter how valuable our messages to humanity may be, if we can- not ably express ourselves, we are unable to make much of an impression upon our envi- ronment. Speech is an exact science. It is worthy of the hard and laborious hours spent in it's perfection. Wide reading with a good dictionary at one's elbow will result in a broadening vocabulary and better chance for success. Woody Woodward Dear Woody, It seems to me that a certain former Wood- wardite this name is Fred Leightoni spends sooo much time tramping our fair halls--- why? D. F. Dear D. F., I won,t tell, but if you said her name was Nynphiadora tour popular seniorl I wouldn't say no. W. W. Dear , Bob Miller looks awfully happy, is it be- cause school will soon be out? I Wonder. Dear Wondering, No, he doesn't want school to close unless he can see Rita Nooney during the six hours when he could be in the school. I. See Woodward. Who's Who A flashing, vivacious personality, an ability to wear clothes well, a perpetual smile, and an infectious laugh are a few of the notations to the credit of a charming brunette junior miss. She is to be seen in the halls during sixth hour with her three constant compan- ions. Conscientious in all she undertakes, her brief but effective appearance in the ju- nior class play was evidence of more than one of her talents. A versitile pianist, a hand at knitting needles. and an agile clog dance are just a few of them. Her almost shy modes- ty makes her a silent cog in the wheel of many organizations. Here is a hint as to her identity: the initials of the other three horse- men are J.E.S., ES., and N.J.A. You guess who it is and we'll tell you next week.

Norma Mottet, a dark haired junior dam- sel, celebrates her birthday today and smiles at the superstitious which are re- vived from the past---and blue-eyed Betty Morgan, junior sister, adding the dreaded day to her birthday list, says breaking mirrors is her favorite pastime. Just imagine!

Instead of walk- ing under a ladder as Tony Anello would do, they walk around. Joe Barbara, the smiling lieutenant, thinks stepping on sidewalk cracks is bad luck. He was discovered hopping on one leg to keep from stepping on Woodward's tile fioor cracks.

'APPLE CHARLIE' G Hey, Charlie! How about an apple? Whc hasn't heard this wheedling cry at basketball games each year? And who hasn't f seen a twinkling-eyed gentleman 1 reach into his sack and good- naturedly toss apples to hungry Woodward lassies? Just who is he---this jolly old codger so fondly nick-named Apple Charlie? i I picked VVoodward from the beginning, and I've stuck with her ever since, said Charlie, when interviewed recently. Why, I even remember her first center, Skin Keezer. To most people Apple RANTS INTERVIEW Charlie is Mr. Fitch. With his spectacles sliding down his nose and his delighted, spontaneous chuckle, he reminds one of the late Will Rogers. In 1929 it was Apple Charlie who organized a baseball team of Woodward girls known as Fitch's All Stars. They were champions for three years. When asked why the boys got apples this year, Charlie ex- plained, The boys got apples this year because Woodward's team is on top, but the girls--- WOODWARD BEATS DeVILBISS CAGERS Tschogl, Kornowa Star As Polar Bears Stage Late Rally Woodward cagers advanced to the semi-finals in the district basketball tournament by virtue of their 33-23 win over DeVilbiss last Friday. The DeVilbiss cagers threw a scare into the Bear squad when they broke out witha barrage of baskets in the first half which were scored from all parts ofthe floor. Woodward broke into the scoring when Boroughf sunk a foul and a few minutes later dropped the ball through for two more points. At the end of the first half DeVilbiss was leading 16-11. In the third quarter the Bears came back and were able to outscore the Tigers by nine points and were leading 24-20 at the end of this period. In the final stanza Woodward cagers scored nine more points and held DeVil- biss to three markers which made the final score 33-23. Florian Tschogl again starred for the Bear squad with six field goals and two fouls for a total of fourteen points. Paul Kornowa closely followed Tschogl with eleven points. .Roy Lee was high scorer for the Tigers with nine points and Carl- son was a close seven. second with Woodward FG F T DeVilbiss FG F T Tschogl 6 2 14 Carlson 3 1 7 Hiltman O 1 1 Lee 2 5 9 Kornowa 4 3 11 Haag 0 4 4 Boroughf 1 1 3 Simon 1 1 3 Swantek 2 0 4 Patterson 0 0 0 Schoonmaker 0 0 0 Gross 0 0 0 Totals 13 7 33 Totals 6 11 23 Bear Grapplers Break Even In Inter-Scholastic Match Bear grapplers broke even with Waite in what was probably the first inter-school wrestling meet ever held.

Bull's win was a twofold one as Alex Cerney, the man he defeat- ed, was the one who beat him in last year's tournament.

Leo- nard Stubby Krell, Joe Wich- owski, Len Nareski, Bob Shuff, and Ray Stoykoff are the present entrants while several others may be signed before the match- es start.

THE WOODWARD TATTLER EXECUTIVE TALKS TO BOYS MONDAY 1. Reynolds Boosts College Education In Guidance Talk You will succeed in business in proportion to your energy and intelligencef, stated Irving C. Reynolds, executive of the Frank- lin Ice Cream company, as he spoke to junior and senior boys on vocational guidance last Mon- day. Representing the business world in his talk, Mr. Reynolds said that one half of all high school students will be demand- ed in some phase of business. As to education, he asserted that a college education greatly increas- es one's chance for success and that time spent between high school and college in working is a good chance for one to deter- mine his vocation. Next Monday all junior and senior boys interested in avi- ation will be given the opportu- nity to hear Frank Hackett speak on aviation as a life's work. This meeting will be held third hour in room 216. To Give Concert W.P.A. orchestra will give a musical concert next Friday, March 20, third hour in the au- ditorium.

St. John's took a 22-21 victory from Waite in their game. SPELLING WINNER GRANTS INTERVIEW We--1 Eugene Weed lt wasn't so particularly diffi- cult until they started in on the dictionary---then I didn't know what was comingli' was Engene lVeed's laughing rejoinder in reference to the spelling bee. Strange as it seems this quiet, scholarly senior never was one hundred per cent in spelling when he was a grader. In fact, he confessed, I was usually in the middle, and therefore I really had to study for this con- test. CWe apply the motto Per- severance conquers all things. It will be remembered that Eugene brought fourth place laurels back to Woodward last year when he travelled to Bowl- ing Green to tackle the junior English exams. Now if you would like to take a peek into the private life of a champion speller, come along. The tranquil little town of Shaw- nee, Ohio, was the donor of this boy with a southern accent---he came to Toledo, and consequent- ly to Woodward, just one year ago last fall. His ambition is to make an extensive study of vocal music, and of all his studies Latin places first. My hobby is read- ing, my favorite author, Wode- house, and I enjoy spectator sports because I do not excel in any myselff, stated this retiring champ. There you have his story, but the chapter won't be finished until he brings back the city spelling crown. Aids C. Meek E. K. Legron is doing Dractice teaching in C. M. Meek's first year algebra classes, since Jos- eph Dence, former practice teach- er has gone to teach regular classes in business arithmetic at Libbey.

THIRD YEAR PUPILS GIVE ANNUAL PLAY Juliette Sear Voted Most Charming Junior Girl By Play-Goers Selected as the most charming junior girl from nine entrants in the charm contest sponsored by the Little Theater Guild, Juliette Sear was presented with a bou- quet of flowers by Miss Amie Miller between acts of the junior class play, '4Charm School, last Friday evening. Esther Gust deserves special mention for her portrayal of the flighty Miss Carter, the secretary. Robert Walterschied and Wil- liam Mund received many laughs in their dramatization of fortune- hunting twins who tried their best to gain the affections of fas- cinating Sally Boyd, play by Lau- ra Ellen Derr. Bruce Lumley, William Bloomer, Violet Scheckler, Juli- ette Sear, and Lucille Grubinski deserve honorable mention for the portrayal of the roles which they played. James Moll, a Woodward alum- nus, is credited for his excellent work in designing the scenery and Max Davis for his help in the lighting effects. First Lieut. And Capt. Miss Annie Wetterman, German and Spanish instruc- tor, was announced to the Tat- tler as Woodward's first lieu- tenant, since she sold between four and nine Gayety Nite tickets. The first to receive a free ticket was Edward Erndt, freshman, a student of Dave McMurray's home room. Nor- man Wolf, freshman of home room 124, was the first cap- tain selling between ten and fourteen Gayety Nite tickets.

SEASONAL DISEASE OVERCOMES PUPILS School Swept By Epidemic, Serious Cases May Prove Fatal With everyone singing I Feel Like a Feather in the Breezef, and with a warm wind blowing from the west, that intriguing, illusive feeling called spring fe' ver is gradually creeping into the bones of every student in Wood- ward. It seems that ol' man spring has caught up with Betty Harri- son and Jimmy Dunn. Mae Kase- man and Art Sievert are none the worse for warm weather. We wonder how many sheets of pap- er Alberta Carpenter and Walt- er Fulmer have used up during their recent study correspond- ence. Maybe these things are due because Dr. Sheline has desig- nated March as Spring Fever-- month of the first stage, which he declares is young love blos- soming in the halls. The second stage, sleeping during classes, comes during April and May, but William Ashenfelter is a little ahead of schedule. According to eminent authorities, the only suit- able remedy is chloroform. - Hi-Y News Speaking at the Senior Hi-Y meeting Tuesday evening, March 10, members of the Y. M. C. A. told of college life.

One of Toledo's newspapers stated that Woodward's cage team works together bet- ter than any other quintet in the city. All Woodward knows that this fine teamwork will bring results in Columbus. Drama In Spelling HOSE who attended the spelling match last Saturday at Scott were impressed by the dramatic finish. Excitement and expectation, misspelled by the two final contestants, are comparatively simple words. Yet their meaning in connection with a contest is significant. Realization of this significance probably brought about emotion, fatal even to the ablest speller. However, Woodward and the city recog- nize in Eugene Weed remarkable spelling ability. His preformance at the Civic audi- torium showed that. Just as outstanding was his quiet dignity. Woodward is indeed proud to have had him as its representative. Make Up Your Minds, Boys E AMERICANS are noted for our reluctance to purchase tickets in ad. vance. This situation exists quite often here at Woodward. Just now it is the senior prom. It seems therefare gentlemen, either bashful or indifferent, who haven't quite made up their minds to attend. Not only is this harrowing for the com- mittee, but also for those fair damsels who wish to plan their clothes ahead of time. Boys, why not give the girls a break and ask them today? Support The Chest HE annual Community Chest campaign began at Woodward last Monday with the program sponsored by the dramatics class. Three more programs will be given. Last year our school contributed 240 dol- lars to this organization. At the first pro- gram this year, seven dollars were taken in. Taking this as a basis, four programs would net 28 dollars. Students will have to support the three remaining programs to the utmost to dupli- cate last year's record. Just Imagine .lust Among Friends What makes Woodward boys so shy? Even though it is leap year, Senior Prom invita- tions seem to be hard to utter. lf you see a shy boytCasimir Szymczak or one of the Walton twinsl wait for hours outside a classroom or the home of his Lady Fair CEllen Follas or Dor- is Liljequistl and then dash madly out of sight when she appears, you can make sure he wants to take her to the Senior Prom but can't get up enough courage to pop the question. Wee Willie Winkle, who peeps in keyholes, informs us that Clara Bustow and Dorothy Kaszubiak have headaches, from wonderin g what to wear. Speaking of headaches, white spots before your eyes will cause them---white spots on the feet of Betty Leon, Loretta Barczak, and La- Verne Kirkpatrick.

As a result of numerous interviews with Mussolini, the man whom the world watches, Ludwig has written the book Talks With Mussolini. By means of these conversations, Ludwig is able to describe in Mussolini's own words the Italian dictator's rapid climb to power. The author, who resides in Switzer- land, is a true internationalist, and so does not restrain his queries, and asks such questions of Mussolini that, by their frank- ness and the answers of the black shirt leader, one readily sees the character of the man whose will influences so many ives.

'- '-: : 855' 1 '.'.',2N:.'.' 1 1-: BY FIRST CLASS team work and flashes of individual starring, Woodward's basketball squad won eleven of twelve games to finish in first spot in the city league. With the first place goes the above pictured trophy presented by the Toledo News-Bee. The trophy has been circulated among the schools which have won the city titles and will come to stay in the Woodward trophy, case since the Bears have won the title for three years. Woodward won the first leg on the trophy in 1928 and after a lapse of a year they won another leg. Then for five years they tried in vain but this year were rewarded with success. Peiupers Beat Scott Woodward's Peiuper club precipitated the junior league into a three way tie when they beat Scott 22-20 last Monday. Benny Hoiman and Sanford H Schwartz starred for Woodward. Bears Have Rooters Woodward had at least two rooters at the state tournament as Mrs. Homer Hanham and her son Billy were present when the games started. BEARS ENTER RACE FOR STATE CROWN Woodward Drops Saints As . Teams Close N . W. Tourney After three nights of tourna- ment play in which they won three games, Woodward elimi- nated St. J ohnis, the last obstacle in its way to represent North- western Ohio in the state tourna- ment. Team work featured the Bear's 26-21 victory last Friday. U Orve Swantek started the scor- ing with a fielder followed closely by a shot from Flo Tschogl. The Saints offset this by two fielders and a foul to lead five to four at the quarter. Red Hiltman, Tschogl, and Swantek hit the hoop to give the Polar Bears a 15-10 advantage at half time. The Bears got two points and the Knights three in a slow third period. Johnny Higgins, St. John's guard, who kept the Saints in the running, was eliminated and with him went the Knights' chances for a victory. Hiltman caged a foul for the last point of the game just' before the gun was shot, ending the game and tournament for another year. Tish Tschogl, the tournament high scorer, led Woodward with 1.0 points, while Higgins' 13 tal- lies were tops for the Knights. O ?5? 'EmEE?

Class .,...... ....... , ' Minute Interview Miss Stella Sawtelle, Wood- ward's keeper of the books, needs no introduction to the pa- trons of the library. This efficient lady has been the librarian here at Woodward since its creation. Now, my biggest ambition, she confided, is to fill our shelves with every book that is needed for each study, and also the latest worthwhile fiction . From various conversations the inquirer learned that Miss Sawtelle enjoys travelling, and it seems that her favorite destina- tion is New York City. Just ask her for pointers---she knows her New York! As for likes and dislikes---any- one knows that our librarian cer- tainly does not enjoy a noisy li- brary---and can you blame her? It might be said that her favorite color is blue---that she likes potato chips--- new books--help- ful assistants--and a good movie.

As Mr. LaRue mentioned at the presentation meeting Monday, the present trophy case is filled. Both the News-Bee trophy and the district award, which we may keep for one year, should be on display. A drive for a new trophy case would be a fine project for some public-spirited club or organization. 1. The Last Lap ITH the issuing of grade cards, the last quarter of the school year begins- That means there is one more chance to raise a grade---one more chance to dupli- cate a high mark. We're entering upon the last lap. For seniors it is the very last. Let's summon up all our reserve strength toward a glorious finish. 1 Support The Debaters HIS evening at Scott high school Don, ald Knoke and Walter Schulisch, sen. iors, will represent our school in the Scripps-Howard debate. A contest of this nature is seldom held among high schools. It will be worth your while to see and hear these boys compete against eight other teams. One Of The Few THIRSTY sophomore, stopping at one of the hall fountains to drink, found it full of sopping waste paper. Before he drank, he carefully removed the paper and took it to the nearest waste container. He is Burton Secord, one of the few sitliilents really offended by waste-littered a s. Vote Today HE BACK page of this issue contains a blank which every freshman, sopho- more, and junior should fill out. It is a ballot to determine which, senior in the students' opinion, should receive the Tattler Achievement Cup. The committee of faculty members, which makes the final decision, will appre- ciate student suggestions. comes distasteful. There is a strange stirring of dormant emotions, an unrest and a dis- content. The lure of the outdoors becomes so great that weak-willed persons neglect their tasks to wander by some stream or baskin the sunlight. The whole world becomes a paradise for the indolent and unambitious. However, we who have work to do cannot lend ourselves to the soft blandishments of a season. We may enjoy the freedom of the out of doors as much as anyone, but a certain sure and unremitting punishment awaits us if we cut our tasks. We must live: and for the great majority of us that means that we must work. The truant tries to secure his happiness by running away from his duties, but the vision of these unperformed tasks spoil his expected happiness, by appearing like Banque at his feast. Those of us who fol- low through our routine of daily work, no matter how galling it may be, enjoy with double measure our leisure hours. Truancy never pays. True happiness can never be sto- len: it must be earned to be enjoyed. Woody Woodward Dear Woody: Who is Ray Delano's new female admirer? Nosey. Dear Durante: It seems that Nellie Knecht follows him with her eyes---and maybe he does likewise. . ' . Woody. Dear Woody: Virginia Carpenter thinks the juniors this year are raw-ther good looking.

Dear Wood-doy: It's gotten .around that Bessie Maverkos' heart thumps for a football sophie---is it true? Inquisitive Sis.

It's a wonder Agnes Nirshel and Morris Rappaport haven't worn out the second fioor halls by now---Jane Fink and her bas- ket ball hero, Schoony, are practicing their constant walk backwards, since they know it so wel1--- The two women haters, Donald Whiting and Freddie Moll, find the young ladies rather uninteresting---although they do en- joy watching the other boys with their best girls---Agnes Liwo says she is going to get herself a speedometer to see how many miles of walking she does around the corri- dors. tPerhaps she had better count the shoes.J Ah!

Silly Sayings Did you ever stop to think how silly some of the things said around school are? Frin- stance: What's this mass-meeting for?', inquired Fanny Cohen last Monday morning when everyone gathered in the auditorium to cheer the basketball team for gleaning two championships. Then again, there are a few alibis told to class deans that could be one for a Munch- ausen's nightmre. Says one for is it two dozenl senior boyfsl after a hectic night, My alarm clock didn't go off, or tragedy of, I couldn't find my lipstickf' Quite the funniest we've heard for ages was the quip by a certain junior who, when she saw the center of our basketball team walking around with his junior girl friend, said, Why, I didn't know they were going together! Since the end of the space has come, it seems quite unnecessary for us to say Goodbye, but it's just another of those dizzglf things that are said around Wood- war . THE WOODWARD TATTLER POLAR BEAR GRID SQUAD PRACTICES Johnny Golembiewski Stars In Early Scrimmages With Running The crack of leather on leather, and the bark of the quarterback came into its own as Woodward's Polar Bear gridders got down to using their plavs in actual com- petition. Homer Hanham, now that bas- ketball is through for another year, is added to the group which is coaching the team. The boys returning from last year are showing promise, and several boys coming up from the lightweights should go places next fall. Johnny Golembiewski is to date the outstanding player of the teams. His end running and line bucking have featured each scrimmage. Were the grid season to begin immediately, Johnny, Bob Stack, Ed Pelczarski, and Chuck Hos- kins would be the probable start- ing backfield with Harry Zarem- ba, Len Nareski, Joe Wichowski, Al Greenwood, Oscar Sear, Ray Stoykoff, and Joe Barbara would be a good bet for opening the holes for the backs to go through. Other boys who would un- doubtedly break into a game are Tony Anello, Simon Hodge, Walt Bishop, Honey Klonowski, Bob Shuff, and Stubby Krell. 1 Two Woodward Tracksters Will Enter Scholastic Meet Tomorrow the Toledo Univer- sity will hold its fifth annual scholastic invitation track meet, the preliminaries beginning early in the afternoon. Coach Art Smith will enter only two men in the meet from Woodward. They are Lucian Lupinski, who throws the shot-put, and Ed Szczepaniak, high jumper and high hurdler. The Scott high team of Toledo is the defending champion of the Class A section while Delta won the class B title last year. It is expected that Sandusky will give Scott a hard fight for this year's laurals. An entree fee of 25 cents is required of each entrant. H. Townsend Sends Meek Letter Commending Squad In a letter to C.M. Meek, Wood- ward's athletic director, H. R. Townsend, commisioner of Ohio high school athletics, included the following paragraph: Your boys made a fine impres- sion in Columbus. They were eliminated by Marietta which many think was the strongest team in the tournament. These contests are peculiar affairs in which the element of chance is a big factor. In Newark's first game it came very close to being elim- inated, but it went ahead to win the tournament. You had a very smooth-working outfit. CHAMPION TEAMS, COACHES HONORED Coach Hanham Presents Gold Basketballsg Green, The Trophy Gold basketballs, donated by Grant Murray, were awarded to the 14 members of Woodward's championship basketball team by Coach Homer Hanham as a reward for outstanding work this year at the program sponsored by the Tattler Staff last Monday, third hour, in the auditorium. Principal LaRue presented Coaches Hanham, McMurray, and Robie with gold basketballs for leading their respective teams to city championships. Deke Green, sports writer of the News-Bee and a former Woodward student, presented the News-Bee trophy, which is to remain in the permanent posses- sion of Woodward. Present Scroll In honoring their coach, mem- bers ofthe team presented him with a scroll which reads as fol- lows: To Our Coach---whose untir- ing efforts, inspiring talks, unfail- ing confidence, patience, and im- partiality enabled us to become City High School Champions and an outstanding basketball team to represent Woodward. To Our Friend---whose view of life has helped us not only to keep the rules ofthe game but to understand and follow the prin- ciples of honorable living. Coach Bechtel introduced Joe Smith, the only member present of the 1928 squad, and Randolph Smith, James Hodges, Clarence King, and Fred Weisberg of the 1930 team. Clifford Stubblefield, assistant coach to Bechtel, also was present. H.. .Eff 2 1 H Woodward lost two things at the tournament in Columbus--- the basketball game and Law- rence Nuber's cute mustache. S. B. Crouse threatened it with a razor one morning, and Mr. Nuber shaved it off. fGoodbye, old faithfulj. ' 0 Although the weather has been against them during the last week, the Polar Bear gridders carried on their practices as had been previously planned. Tues- day afternoon the rain failed to halt their activities. Even though the basketball season has ended, Woodward's cagers continue to practice night- ly to keep themselves in condi- tion. Recently the school purchased a first baseman's mit and catch- er's mit for the school team. Four War clubs have been added to the new equipment of the base- ball squad. POLAR BEARS FALL IN MARIETTA GAME Opponents Gain Lead At Half, Flo Tschogl Makes 11 Points In a game which was sprinkled with numerous fouls, Woodward was dropped from the race for the state title by the Marietta five by a 43-35 count. The Bears were guilty of 12 personal fouls while Marietta committed 17 offenses,each squad having two players evicted from the game. Marietta led by Hill, lanky for- ward. gained a 27-15 lead at the half and all efforts by Wood- ward failed to gain enough in the second half to top the down- state team. Florian Tschogl again led the Bear tossers with eleven points but Hill and Mills, forward and center respectively of the Mari- etta team, overshadowed him with 13 points apiece.

Wrestlers Lose Out Woodward's representatives in the city amateur wrestling meet held last Saturday in the Y. M. C. A. were all topped by their op- ponents.

Directly in line with last year's convention where the representatives were all work- ing together as one unit to estab- lish standards whereby all camps would be benefited, this year's convention found ways to em- body these standards in the camp program, he concluded. - Senior Notes The senior prom committee has selected Jack Spratt's ten- piece orchestra, with a blues singer as an added attraction, to play for the senior prom to be held April 18 at the Women's Building.

TEACHER RELATES FANTASTIC STORY This Incident Should Give Tall Story Writers Plot Ideas A young masculine member of the faculty, and a young man were parked in Mr. Thomae's coupe on Monroe Street. A young lady dashed across the street, opened the door of their car, and with a hasty Move over and get going! she climbed in. This faculty member looked at his friend, and his friend looked at him. So our hero started the car and drove down the street. Meanwhile, the im- perious feminine intruder, who had been chattering incessantly, paused to glance casually at the driver. Oooo! she wailed, Fm in the wrong car! That's all right, lady, assured the faculty member companion- ably, as he stopped the car, you're with two gentleman. So thefair lady hopped out as quickly as she had jumped in. It appeared that the faculty member thought she was the young man's girl friend, the young man, in turn, was under the impression she was the fac- ulty member's Wife. And the good-looking cause of all this trouble took the faculty mem- ber's green coupe to be her boy friend's car. The driver of the green coupe swears this is true, but the writer believes it would make excellent material for the Tattler's Tall Story contest. At least, this rol- licking tale of mistaken identity should give you aspiring tall story writers ideas.

Sex GAIN an answer appears to the ques- tion of the relative capabilities be- tween the SSXBS. In the sales campaign for Gayety Nite, statistics show that seventy-five percent of the free tickets given for the sale of four ducats have been given to girls.Also three- fifths of the high ranking home rooms are decidedly feminine classes. What's the matter, boys, have you an overused excuse or has the weaker sex proved its name to be a misnomer? Study, Students OW that students have been selected by various teachers to represent Wood- ward in the Northwestern Ohio Scholar- ship tests held annually at Bowling Green college, the real work begins. Coaching by teachers and concentrated study should tend to send a thoroughly prepared team to Bowling Green. Last year's scholastic team placed Wood- ward among the highest in the district. Why A Track Team? ERE there any Woodwardites who hoped or expected that our two entries in the Toledo University track meet could win for us the championship? Cer- tamly no two tracksters could ever perform such a feat. Then in our minds is raised the question of why there were not more men entered in the meet. Can it be that the twenty-five cent entry fee would be too burdensome for the athletic fund? Or perhaps none of our trackmen are capable of such competition. In answer to the latter of these sugges- tions it might be well to bring to mind the fact that Woodward has no coach who is able to spend enough time in giving the team sufficient training. To coach a football and a track team at the same time is a very difficult task. I Breathing Spell ITi spring vacation starting next week, two thousand students will suddenly find a large amount of leisure time on their hands. For some it will mean a breathing spell so that they can complete the school year. This short spell of vacation may mean the successful completion of many a stu- dent's high school course, so vital to one's success.

In Our Library For over twenty-five years Joseph Lin- coln has produced tangy sea-stories of the Cape Cod district. His characters personify the sea-farer and his intimatesg with deft strokes of his pen, he produces character descriptions which depict sea life as it is. In the collection of short stories entitled i'All Along Shore, Mr. Lincoln has gath- ered salty tales from everywhere to com- bine them into an exceedingly interesting book. A light-fingered gent known as 'iPinky finds himself a hero of a shipwreck in the tale entitled The Castaway. As the story continues we find this connoisseur of jailsi' the object of romantic attentions that prove very amusing. This and many other tales of sailors and salts are found in this recent collection. There is a story to suit every reader's fancy. April Antics Splash!

POLAR BEARS END SPRING PRACTICE Smith, Assistants Prepare Bear Gridders For Next Year Woodward's gridders ended their spring workouts for anoth- er year with scrimmages show- ing the final results of the prac- tice in preparation for next fall. The Bears, under the unfailing eyes of Art Smith, Dave McMur- ray, Homer Hanham, Joe Bloom, and Dick Davis, a grad who is very helpful to his alma mater, run signals with the skill and pep of mid season. Cybulski, Kusima, and Wilson are boys showing plenty of fight in an attempt to break into the prospective first string. Other boys who will be back next fall fighting for a spot on varsity are Allen, Barbara, Bor- kowski, Cochran, Donaldson, Erdmann, Greenwood, Haffelder, Klocko, Kaczmierczak, Krzymin- ski, Krell, Navarre, Nowak, Nar- eski, Pieron, Plush, Sear, Shuff, Stoykoff, Turrittin, Wichowski, Wagner, and Zaremba, linemen, and Anello, Banasiak, Bishop, Bialorucki, Boykin, Davis, Hodge, Golembiewski, Hoskins, Klonow- ski, Lind, Pelczarski, Robinson, Stack, and Szelagowski, backs. Five Veteran Golf Players Return For Team Positions Trying out for the golf team this year are fifteen players, five of whom played on last year's squad. The five candidates who participated last season are Casimir Obloza, John Struk, Bill Kowalski, William Phifer, and Ed Pfeiferle. Casimir played first position last year and won every game but one. He will hold down that position again this year and will be acting captain. I like to have them play as much as they can and turn in their scores, said Mr. Howard Phipps, their adviser and coach. The boys have not practiced because the ground was too soft, but they expect to practice after vacation. Bear Athletes Pledge Quota Of Tickets For 'Gayety Nite' After short talks by C.M. Meek, Henry Van Gorder, and Miss Mary Ward before Wood- ward's athletes, Florian Tschogl, stellar athlete, presented the following resolution: 4'We, the athletes of Wood- ward High School, pledge our- selves to sell our quota of tickets for Gayety Nite and urge all other members of the student body to do likewise. One hundred and fifty mem- bers of the football, basketball, baseball, track, tennis, and golf teams pledged unanimously to carry out this resolution last Monday conference hour. At present Joe Sterling leads all athletes in selling tickets with sixteen sold. THE WOODWARD TATTLER BEARS FACE TIGERS ON OUTDOOR TRACK First Outside Track Meet April 153 Lupinski Scores At U. Having completed the indoor season, Woodwardis track team, coached by Art Smith, are work- ing out on the oval in prepara- tion for the first outdoor meet of the season, with DeVil biss on the Polar Bear's home field, April 15. Although losing the first meet, the Woodward boys made 27 points against the Tigers a few weeks ago in a dual indoor meet. In the Toledo University meet last Saturday, which Scott, de- fending champion, won again, Lucian Lupinski was the only one to score for Woodward, tak- ing fourth place in the shot put. Fordham, DeVilbiss star, set a new record in that event, topping Holmes'fWoodwardJf'ormer 47 ft. record by an inch and a half. Szcypaniak qualified for the high jump at the 'l'.U. field house, but missed on five ft. ten inches in the finals. Two others, Charles Kosbab and Lloyd Cates, were entered in the quarter and mile trots respectively. In the DeVilbiss meet coming up, Coach Art Smith will get a line on the boys' ability toward selecting Woodward representa- tives to enter in the Mansfield relays on April 18. There are eight outdoor meets scheduled. Th.irteen Boys Enter Joe Bloom's Tumbling Classes Due to the efforts of Coach Joe Bloom, the tumbling team is coming along in fine shape. Thir- teen boys are working out in the boys' gym conference hour every Wednesday and Friday. Tumbling is not a competetive no means a Joe Bloom's to develop the and body in no fierce con- it is necessary sport and is by sissy', sport in opinion. It helps boys' arms, legs, general. There is tact of bodies, but for long practice to get all the tumbling maneuvers working smoothly. No definite plans have been set for the team. It was not formed with any definite exhibition plans in mind but for boys who wanted to enter a sport which would provide plenty of exercise. Boys Given Athletic Tests In Gym To Determine Class Spring athletic achievement tests are being held in the boys' gym this week. These tests are given for the purpose of classi- fying students according to their physical ability, not to determine their grades. Classification is as follows: sin- gle A, lowest 33 percent of the class, double A, middle 35 per- cent of the classg triple A, high- ast 32 percent of the class. Frequently, Homer Hanham and Art Smith, coaches, ind prospects for Woodward athletic teams as a result of these tests. GRADUATES TACKLE PROSPECTIVE TEAM Coach Art Smith Arranges Scrimmages For Next Year's Gridders Woodward's senior gridders merely scrimmaged next year's squad last XfVednesday, Thurs- day, and will meet them again tonight after school.

She is Bertha Payak, the spontaneous, energet- ic girl recently announced as hav- ing an average of 97 percent, the highest in the senior class. Bertha has had her hand in many activities at school this year. As chairman of the senior social committee, she planned the Senior Hick party, and the senior Gayety Nitei' program given today. She managed both to direct the recent Zet mass meeting and to steal the show with her comic role. If you admir- ed the decorations at the Art Klan dance last February, you'll now understand why they were so charming and original. It was Bertha Payak who was in charge. But let's have a word with this remarkable senior miss. Let me take you to room 141 where she is busily engaged in painting one of the most outstanding murals in the room. How does it feel to rank high- est in my class? she repeated abstractly, cocking her eye at a certain color she had just painted on the wall, 4'Why, I really don't know---I've never thought about it! ' And therein lies the secret of her charm.

Providing sufli- cient proceeds are made, Principal LaRue may be able to have our creditors accept the money as full payment and abolish the debt. This would enable the athletic department to start next year free from financial embarrassment. As integral parts of Woodward, students have been asked to co-operate individually as well as in clubs. The clubs have responded by arranging the mechani- cal details, and pupils have been asked to distribute tickets, the most important job. Here's Our Chance T THE present time Woodward may have one of two things: the lot on Otto street as a playground, or an enlarged boys' gymnasium. The Board of Education is now debating which project to select. In Woodward's opinion there is no choice. The lot on Otto street may be pur- chased any time, but this is the only chance to enlarge our gym with governmental assistance. The school's executive board favors the gym project, teachers and students have voiced their approval. Still hesitant, the Board of Education has asked the VVood- ward P. T. A. for its opinion. We hope the P. T. A. will approve Wood- ward's choice and that its decision will be emphatic enough to arouse an immediate course of action. 1- Our Club Situation COMMITTEE has been appointed by Principal C. C. LaRue to scan Wood- ward's club situation with an eye to im- provements. One probable result will be a limited number of organizations to which a student may belong. Vacancies caused by this step would be filled by reticent pupils who have no club afliliations. Under this plan more students will ben- efit by club programs and activities, more persons will be eligible for offices as no pu- pil Would hold more than one office, and finally, the roster of all organizations would be considerably enlarged. It would facilitate matters if the rulings ofthe com- mittee could be publicized before elections are held and plans for next year made. By C. C. LaRue g The following lines appeared in a fi if recent number of the magazine de- Q voted to the interests of Kiwanis ln- ' ,. 4, 1-,L ternational, author unknown.

With a ho-heave-ho and lusty yell They swung a beam and the side wall fell. I asked the foreman: Are these men skilled? And the men you'd hire ifyou had to build? He gave a laugh and said: No, indeed! Just common labor is all I need I can easily wreck in a day or two What builders have taken a year to do. And I thought to myself as I went my way, '4Which of these roles have I tried to play? Am I a builder who works with care, Measuring life by the rule and square? Am I shaping my deeds to a well-made plan, Patiently doing the best I can? Or am I a Wrecker, who walks the town Content with the labor of tearing down.

Who's Who The object of this week's Who's Who is acertain athletic senior boy who, when de- scribed by Woodward girls, results in being tall, dark, and oh, sooo handsome! They know, of course, that all their hopes are blasted because a senior miss, D. H., and he roam through the corridors together every day ........ and, as Winchell would say, are that way about each other. He isn't our champion speller, but Toledo basketball followers saw him lead Wood- ward's cagers to victory and the News-Bee trophy. In speaking before large audiences, he becomes very shy. Surely you've guessed his identity by now, but if your mind isn't functioning properly today, you can find the answer in a future Tattler. in The famous detective arrived at the scene of crime. Gracious, he said this is more serious than I thought. This window has been broken on both sides. ---Guard and Tackel, Stockton, California.

Things I Never Knew 'Til Now Since the doctor of the senior class play had a split with his blonde girl friend, a sparkling sophomore, none other than Blanche Rhuland, fills his time. Basketball heroes are the cake, at least Alice Allen thinks so, and Ernie Gross is no exception. Now that Bettie Jane Long goes round and round with Noel Dawson, Francis Abbe is spending his spare time walking the halls with Ruth Yeager. Bill Kowalski doesn't mind dancing now that Rita Kasprzak has taken the pains to teach him. Eating lunch sitting on the floor is a lot of fun to Bob Bucher with Eleanore South- wick and Wilma Sibresse beside him. George Stenberg waits impatiently around corners for Mary Louise McDowell to happen along. . If Ruth Linker keeps up her study hall conversation with a prominent senior, some one will be thinking it's love in bloom. Vacation Varieties Vacation thoughts flow thick and fast--- while little eaves-dropper's pencil flew faster---with the following results. Gee! If this shine doesn't please Vir- ginia Wendel, sighs Al Greenwood as he polishes his bus, I'll give up! ---Doris Liljequist was almost in tears as the blonde bleach ran into her eyes, and she sighed, So Bob Walton likes blonds ---Gail Plush was seen strutting down the street to show Lula Belle Holbrook his new Easter suit---while Ethel Scheidler almost broke her neck trying to see what Jean Harlow's got that she hasn't KP. S.---Bob Rippenger likes Jean.l Tom McMahon is the originator of the most original sighs when he thinks of the Senior Prom---wonder if Ethel Crane has anything to do with that?---Blanche Ruh- land must have learned by now not to say nice things in French to Dale Oswalt over the telephone---she discovered that he took French in the sweet long ago. Curiosity killed the cat, but we would all like to know if little Virginia Schlei- vert is the cause of Bob Pohl bumming his classes from DeVilbiss? WOODWARD OPENS BASEBALL SEASON Bears Tangle With Tigers For First Game In . Five Years baseball team will DeVilbiss its first game several years next Monday in Wilson park after The line- for the opener as yet indefi- but the pros- p e c t s W e r e t o L- C- Clark have received a looking over in a practice game.

Woodward's go into action Sports Committees Amend Basketball And Indoor Rules When Woodward's gym class- es and intra-mural teams begin softball, they will operate under the new rules of the Ohio State Amateur Softball association. The principal changes are the change of distance from the pitching box to the plate from 37 Z feet to 40 feet, and an ille- gal pitch will be termed a balk, and the runner will be permit- ted to advance a base. Spikes,f though legalized, will not be used by Woodwardls soft- ballers. Three changes were made by the National Basketball Rules committee. They are a six foot restraining circle for center jump, allowing substitutes to talk with team- mates on entering the game, and four timeouts instead of three will be allowed. .im-1,111 Trackmen Buy Needs With the money received from the Track Trot, which was 810, the track team bought 20 pairs of track pants, a pole for the pole vault, and helped buy the shoes. l.. 1q Girls Hold Contest The girls began their foul shooting contest last Wednesday and will complete it Tuesday, April 21. All girls who wish to compete will be able to do so in their regular gym classes. Each contestant will be given twenty attempts and ties will be broken by giving extra shots in braces of five as the boys are doing. The girl winner will receive a Saga-Tattler as a prize. THE WOODWARD TATTLER DeVILBISS TAKES DUAL TRACK MEET Ed Szczepanek Places First In Four Events, Final Score Is 80-47 The United States weather bureau cooperating to the full by giving warm weather, Wood- ward opened its outdoor track season last Wednesday after school in a duel meet with De- Vilbiss, the Tiger tracksters winning by the score of 80 1-5 to 46 4-5.

Dawson, Lupinski, and Szczepanek, all point win- ners in the DeVilbiss meet, will represent the Blue and White at the relays. High School Golf Mentors Attend DeVilbiss Meeting Coaches of all high school golf teams met yesterday at DeVil- biss to find out definitely about the suggestion that each school team be sponsored by a certain golf club. Instead of having all matches played over the same course at the same time, the games will take place on the courses which sponsor the high school teams if the suggestion is adopted. There has also been some talk about playing each team a sec- ond time, but nothing has been decided as yet. Coach Duvendack Polishes Net Squad For First Game Frank Duvendack took the tennis team over to Willys' park courts yesterday after school for the first outdoor practice this year in preparation for the first match which is scheduled for April 28 with Vocational. Several of the boys have been practising in the boys' gym, lay- ing out a court in the middle of the floor.

Roy Coss, George Loucks, Tom McMahon, James Thompson, Lewis Beebe, Sanford Schwartz, Donald Knoke, Moses Haddad, and Morris Rappaport are the players who are trying out. TO SPONSOR FOUL SHOOTING CONTEST Tattler Plans Annual Event For Boys, Prize Is 1936 Saga Plans for the annual Tattler foul shooting contest for boys have been completed, and the event will take place Tuesday, April 21. Instead of the elimi- nations being held during the reg- ular gym classes, the foul shoot- ing will take place in the boys' gym after school.

The prize that the winner will receive is a 1936 Saga-Tattler. lr, ll .s Out of moth balls for the first time in five years came 14 uni- forms for the use of the baseball team. The regalia appeared to be in good shape, but fears were voiced for what might happen on the first slide. I C I Woodward's nine began round- ing into shape for the DeVilbiss opener with two practice tilts. One with Sylvania on Wednes- day and the other with Holland on Thursday. Club Inspects Plant Sixteen members of the Wood- ward Alchemist society inspect- ed the Libbey-Owens Ford plate glass company Monday, April 6. Mr. Charles Staneart, adviser, headed the group which was guided through the plant by Clarence Stubblefield, former coach at Woodward, but now connected with the glass factory. Tourney To Start Girls' intra-mural hit-pin tour- nament will be organized in a different manner this season as compared to other years. A meet- ing was held in the gym for all girls who wished to join a hit-pin team. Teams were organized from that group, and the tourna- ment will begin next week. Cookers Pay Debt In order to help pay the athlet- ic debt, Miss Angela Abair's home economics classes have served 275 luncheons to the teach- ers during fifth and sixth hours. The material for these luncheons has been donated by members of the cooking classes. Miss Abair would not disclose the amount of money already taken in. , BEAR GOLF TEAM OPENS SCHEDULE DeVilbiss Tigers Are Bears' Opponents In Golf Opening Tilt Coach Howard Phipps' golf squad opens its 1936 schedule Tuesday, April 21, when it meets the DeVilbiss linksmen. The course over which the matches will be played had not been deter- mined when this story went to press, but last year all matches were held at Ottawa Park. At a meeting held third hour last Monday, Casimir Obloza was selected acting captain for the coming season, and rules about winter golf and stymie were discussed. Winter golf rules allow a player to better his lie by moving his ball with his hand or club not more than six inches. Stymie rules will be omitted this year as they have been in pre- vious high school matches. The lineup for the opening match will be selected at a meet- ing Monday conference hour from the largest group of try- outs in many years. Casimir Ob- loza, John Struk, Ed Pfefferle, Bill Kowalski, and William Phi- fer are left from last year's team and other promising candidates include Don Norris, Ted Nichpor, Charles Schultz, Bob Bolli, and Earl Barrett. , Twenty-Eight Lightweight Gridders Receive Letters For playing eight quarters or more, 28 lightweight football players received their letters last Tuesday, conference hour, in room 323.

Crouseis wood shop is rush- ing an order of twelve bats made of white ash to be used by the baseball team for the first time against DeVilbiss. With a W for a trademark, the team should be able to tell easily which way the grain runs. In early practices 3 out of 4 bats were broken. The wood shop is also con- structing 25 reference tables for .the Board of Education. SENIORS GAIN LEAD IN SALE OF TICKETS Total For Classes Is 2800, Juniors Are Close In Second The senior class has strength. ened its hold on first place by ad vancing to 40 percent of its quota' 2 percent higher than its nearest rival, the juniors.

Ever since this smiling, brown- eyed, brown-haired senior en- tered Woodward she has been constantly organizing and aiding in class and club projects. Under her efficient leadership, the sen- ior prom is sure to be a success. In addition to being prom chairman, Dorothy is president of the Honor society and the Play Shop, and an active member of the Art Klan and Zetalethean Lit- erary society, however she finds spare moments for a young gentleman outside of school. Her ambitions are to be an inte- rior decorator and to enroll at Ohio State next fall. Her eyes light up when you mention clothes. Nothing delights her more than to be neatly and prop- erly dressed for an occasion. This enterprising, vivacious young miss, who will do any- thing within reason for a friend, should go far in this world. Hi-Y Notes I The programs for the five re- maining meetings of the Senior Hi-Y were outlined by the mem- bers present at the meeting last Tuesday. Programs will consist of movies of Camp Storer and fishing on the northern lakes on April 21, a discussion of boy and girl relationship, April 28, the election of next year's officers, May 5, a guest speaker, May 12, and the banquet and farewell meeting on May 19. Woodward's delegates to the Maumee Valley Older Boys' con- ference held at theToledo Central Y. M. C. A. last Wednesday were Bob Waltershied and Gale Wean- er. Checking coats will be the sen- ior Hi-Y club's project for Gayety Nite. Basketball has had many new developments that make it fast- er and more interesting to the spectators, stated Coach Homer Hanham in his talk to the Jr. Hi- Y club at its weekly meeting, Tuesday evening, April 14 at the Y. M. C. A. Various phases of the game were discussed after the speech. Club advisers are Howard Phipps and Frank Duvenback. Teachers Buy Cars Who doesn't believe in the Easter bunny? That famous lit- tle bundle of hops has induced Miss Betty Nelson and E. R. Rike to keep in step with the spring by investing in new cars. Miss Dorothy Bardo was appointed chief chauffeur for Miss Nelson as a precaution against broken bones and smashed fenders. Mr. Rike has displayed good taste in buying a car the same color . of his hair. THE WOODWARD TATTLER STATISTICIAN GIVES STARTLIN G FIGURES Amazing Facts On Lockers, Candy Sales, Prom Computed After long hours of tedious and nerve-wracking computa- tion, ye old official Statistician frefer to Webster? has arrived at startling conclusions. If the 21, 168,000 cubic inches of space in Woodward's 2100 lockers could be filled with ice cream lollypops, each person in Toledo could have 1345 lollypops a day for elev- en days including Sunday. If the 4,910 candy bars which the Engineer society sold were laid end to end, the rattling of paper would make enough noise to raise six roofs seven inches into the air. Although horse lin- iment is good for stiff necks, we notice that not many students have looked at our new flag. Senior girls' faces have lost that dark look since the dresses, shoes, wraps, etc. have been se- lected. Gertrude Stark very of- ten finds herself dreaming of soft lights and sweet music as the big day draws closer, right now Annie Mueller tells us that it's less than 30 hours away. P. S. The above figures and data are only approximate, and we are not responsible for mis- takes in figuring. Flowers Will Be Presented For Best Bookkeeping Sets A bouquet of flowers will be presented to the senior turning in the best of the bookkeeping sets being done in M. T. Skin- ner's second year bookkeeping classes, first and eighth hours. Miss Dorothy Warner and Mr. Skinner will judge the sets, and the bouquet will be awarded at commencement exercises.

Rechecking the districts may be done again next week, accord- ing to Floyd Lords, chairman of the donation committee. Committee Of Instructors Named To Re-Vitalize Clubs In order to re-vitalize Wood- ward's club program, a commit- tee of teachers was named last Tuesday to study and report on the club situation in various schools. The aim in view is to arrange the club programs so that more students will be mem- bers of at least one club. To make this possible, it may be necessary to limit the number of clubs to which a student may belong or to base the enrollment on a point system. As chairman of extra-ourricu- lar activities, Henry VanGorder heads the committee which in- cludes Miss Dorothy Bardo, Frank Duvendack, Miss Louise Tippett, Miss Stella Cornwell, and Miss Adrienne Curtis. It is hoped that this group will have its report before the middle of 11312311 when club elections will be e . Hurry! Only Few Days Left To Enter Writing Contest Going up!

FUN W OOD W RD TATTLER FUN ISSUE Constantly, Consistently Constructive ISSUE lg Vol. VIII Toledo, Ohio, April 24, 1936 No, 28 CLARK TO SPEAK AT INSTITUTIONS Feeble-minded Folk To Hear Talk On Tape Friday E. L. Clark, vocational guid- ance directcr at Woodward, has consented to give a series of talks in all the Ohio institutions for the feeble-minded. His speeches will cover related information and instructions for the reduc- tion of the sticky substance on adhesive tape. Adhesive plaster, as it is some- times called, states the eminent authority, is a promoter of foul language, and if the amount of glue were reduced, the morale of all public high schools would be benefited. I am of the opinion that this evil was a direct cause of the revolutionary War, one purpose of my delivering these speeches is to prove this point.

Reporter Interviews Brrrr! was I feeling bilious! The editor had assigned me to interview the man who makes the heat go round and round Woodward's rooms. Here's the buildingf' he said, now go to the bottom of the thing and get the dirt. Skat! I didn't know how far down in the coal-bin the fireman lived, so I grabbed the nearest Sunbeam and climbed hand over hand up to the top of the chimney. Then I gently slid down through the dust into an empty shovel with an overcoat of soot. With a piece of sunbeam that was in my hand, Ibrushed myself off, crawled un- der three wheel-barrows of coal, and called for the head janitor in G fiat. Finally I peeked around a double-barreled radiator and saw him hauling out ashes with a teaspoon. CHe said the WPA wore out all his shovels for himl. He was working like the devil. W00dward's Fireman fFires sizzled all around him, and therein lies the tale. , What do you do for a living? ilasked. O.G. N.R.A., I make it 1 hot for teachers, and when I don't the teachers make it hot for me. I First Mr. Phipps yells down the I w chute for me to fill up the mer- cury in his thermometer and then Mr. Meek whispers that I should send another gob of heat up to his room. Miss Edith Mur- phy always wants the hot air for her class sent up in two gallon champagne glasses set on the iescalator. They all roast me when I get these orders mixed, ras if I'm not burned up enough down here in this hotboxf' Then I asked him, How do you get rid of all the ashes here? That's simple, he jingled. I've got a big picture of the Sahara desert here next to the coal-bin and during the winter I just pile the rubbish out in the desert till springf' TEACHER REVEALS LIFE-LONG SECRET , , , , Miss Cronk Amazing the gayety giddy world, Miss Gracie Cronk, alias 312-313 and supervisor of sopho- more boys, disclosed a secret of vast unimportance while at a down with non-biologists meet- ing held at the rear of Wool- worth's five and ten. Before a small but large au- dience, Grand Gracie did not ex- plain that her twelve hopes were to-guess what! Thelow-lights of her soap-box oration contain it. Give me a drink or give me nothing, she dramatically start- ed. Having quenched her thirst with a gallon of rain water, she again Huey Longed, I have al- ways wanted to have twelve little rascals, boys, to whom I could teach biology. ' At this point she toppled over because of the lightness made by the relief of the heavy secret. At fifteen years, Gracie had the wardrobe of her 12 Percy's all picked out including green checked trousers, red bows under dimpled chins, and floppy sailor hats decked with carrots. In their lapels would be dandylions. fWoe to themll The event has happened! But instead of boys it's seven little rabbits. Her pal, Miss or Mrs. Blank gave them to her as a to- ken of hate. Tut, tut. Already the tikes are showing off their wealth by strutting around with fur coats---Huh-huh I !!

Or are you a sourful cuss, needing ex- tremes to instill mirth? By these pages of fun, the Tattler staff is attempting to fool all of the people some of the time. Possibility of success has been acknowledged by the famous saying, You can fool some of the people some of the time, but you can't fool all of the people all of the time. Nevertheless, you are reminded that this is all in fun, so be among those fooled and take it as such. 1- Halls Too Clean! OODWARD'S halls are too clean! Something must be done about it. Pupils who used to be careless of waste paper, banana peels, and other miscellan- eous articles are now in a painful state of cleanliness. The good old days are slipping away, so if you earnestly want all the joys and com- forts of dirty halls again, get behind our Ustrewing up the halls campaign and work for the honor of the school. The Art Klan is circulating a series of posters bear- ing the motto, Keep Our Halls Dirty, which will be used in study rooms. This exhibition of loyal school spirit should drive the rest of the pupils to help in this campaign for the elimination of waste con- tainers. --1-..-ii Just A Novelty EDNESDAY, seventh hour, several hundred Woodward students viewed the last carnival program, that given by the faculty. Naturally, students thought it a unique experience to be able to see these men and women minus their usual pedogogic garb. It should be explained, therefore, that the undercurrent of excitement and the com- mendable display of interest was not due to the ability of the actors nor to the con- tent of the play. To students it was just a novelty. We hope the faculty will be misled bv the frepuent outbursts of applause and other seemingly favorable signs and so decide to follow stage careers instead of their chosen calling. A thousand dollars be given to the big- liar at Woodward chool on the night 30, 1928. All and students eligible. Rose J ablonski. Rose Jablonski . . .

The situation is tense. Specialists attending the victims, have been unable to determine the origin of the malady. No one seems to know the initial victim or where he might have become exposed. ---The Empty Bottle. Blushing prettily like a sixteen year old maiden at a truck driver's picnic, Dr. Craft Williams gave an illustrated lecture con- demning immoral practices on the parts of the students while classes are in pro- gress. The outburst, begun when a shy little girl innocently inquired the origin of little puppies, came as a complete surprise to the assembled students. ---The Spagetto.

In Our Library Mrs. I.Tellum Storeys, well known book critic and reviewer, reviewed the book, Trees of Red, at the bi-monthly closed meeting sponsored by the Periletheans in the auditorium last Tuesday. Although most of the listeners were sleeping soundly at the end of the second paragraph, Mrs. Storeys bravely continued and raised her voice above the snores. Trees of Red is a tale of pioneer Indians who make their livings by digging graves. The big chief's daughter falls in love with a wild bear while eating honey, and wakes up only when the grandfather clock strikes four attackers down to save Little Neck, the Indian princess.

MEEK PLANS BICYCLE CONTEST Race Will Last 5 Days, Joe Bloom Is Official Announcer The sight of all the bicycles be' ing driven to and from school by Woodward students put an idea into the head of a faculty mem- ber and the director of athletic, Clyde Meek, who carried out this great idea with the permission of C.

BLOOM TOPPLES TISH IN TOURNEY Dark Horse Crowned Champ - After Hard Day At Marbles Shooting with the uncanny ac- curacy that has made him fa- mous, Florian Tschogl topped all opponents in Woodward's mar- ble tournament. Popping them from all angles, he had such worthy opponents as Paul Kornowa, Red Hiltman, Gus Schoonmaker, and Norm Waite virtually in tears as their chances for a lollipop, the first prize, faded. Between games when the play- ers were taking a refreshing drink of lemonade, the ambu- lance arrived on the scene to take away the remains of Olen Bor- oughf who had broke-n his ankle trying to shoot a peewee. Joe Bloom, the dark horse of the tournament, came out of the shadows to be crowned champi- on with a mallett. The gallery, composed of the female admirers of the contest- ants, was disrupted by violent riots and though few were in- jured, many were killed. Interview Of Dentist's Wife Shows Good Feet Conditions Where are my keys! the familiar battle cry of the ener- getic, blond shadow who lurks in corners of the Tattler office, is a call to the eyes of the staff. Mrs. Marie Ersig, whose title is adviser, reveals that her favor- ite color combination is orange, pink, and purple. In the line of food, she favors broiled ham bones served with cream of ink sauce. Having a husband for a dentist keeps my feet in good condition, she declares, He keeps me on a diet of malted milk and oranges, and sometimes I get so hungry I chew on the furni- ture. He threatens to buy all metal chairs if I don't stop.

All necessary information blanks and fees have been submitted. Transportation is assured for every entrant. Teachers have coached, students have studied. All that is needed are clear, cool heads on the shoulders of Woodwardls team. Frolic Tonight HE annual Sophomore dance, one of the year's friendliest affairs, will be held tonight in the girls' gym. For weeks in advance, energetic second year students have been carefully planning every detail of this, their first social function. Sophomore dances are noted for their charming decorations and their atmosphere of good cheer. Won't you upperclassmen atteigd, and help make it afinancial success a so. - Thanks HE Board of Education has decided to enlarge Woodward's gym instead of creating the vacant lot on Otto street into a playground. Woodward preferred the gym enlarge- ment to the playground project. The school, therefore, is grateful to Merle Devlin representative of Woodward P. T. A., and Grant Murray, Board member, who used their influence in this matter. .1- -l. Elect With Wisdom URING the past week and in the next few weeks, Woodward organizations are selecting oiiicers for next year. As everyone knows, efficient officers mean a successful club. If voters keep in mind the requisites required to run a group, Woodward's extra- curricular season should be a success. But we must remember that even an able person cannot fulfill his duties if he hasn't the time. By C. C. LaRue Ou' Gayety Nite is history. The - noise and confusion attendant upon p ivvte rg its arrival have given way to the , g peaceful quiet of classroom routine. il, ' '53 ' It was a huge success. Financially it exceeded our fondest expecta- tions. In other ways it proved its value. We are a more unified organization than ever before. We had a common purpose and with everyone working toward one ac- complishment we came to know and under- stand each other better and appreciate each other more. We commend the teachers who worked so cheerfully and cooperatively, the pupils whose untiring efforts rolled up a stupend- ous ticket sale and a mountain of donations, and our neighbors and friends who supported us so loyally. We are glad the hard work and the worry are over but pleasant memories are left.

March fThis is the best translation of the French poem Mars, by Charles Reynaud, submitted in a contest conducted by the French classes.J Oh March is a happy month, A month of many surprises. From early morn until the night, From all of nature joy arises. The soft breath of the south wind, Has melted the stream's icy cover. And thawed the ground to prepare for, The growth of plants in the summer. The nightingale is here- His soft song is in the air. And heard from the bare birch tree, The linnet's song so rare. Beneath the long dormant hedge, Awakening flowers upward shoot. The red buds of the peach tree follow The notes of the sun's magic flute. Rain and snow, sun and wind, Of these things March has all. With the sun to act as a smile. To dry her tears as they fall.

Errors proved a great help to the Tigers in the DeVilbiss tilt while the inability to hit George Holtgrieve, Central pitcher, was the leading factor in the down- fall of the Bears in their game with the Irish. Schoolboy Schoonmaker, who pitched three innings against Central allowing only one hit, looked good in the box, but er- rors gave the Irish two runs.

THE WOODWARD TATTLER W, -A .4 T77 4, F SENIOR SELLS MOST CARNIVAL TICKETS William Rohr Why shouldn't I be a loyal supporter of any Woodward ac- tivity---I've been here for six years counting my junior high atten- dancef' countered William Rohr, the senior boy who sold the larg- est number of carnival tickets. Coming out from behind a bar- rage of interviewer's questions, the seriou s-appearing the is loads of funj fourth-year man informed the questioner that his favorite hobby is reading---that he goes for all sports, especially baseball, and that he thinks Woodward has a good baseball team. As for ambitions---my, my after an intensive six-year college course in engineering and law, his intentions are to pass a civil service exam so that he can be in the U.S. patent office. Now do you wonder why such an ambitious fellow could sell eighty tickets?

SIGHS WEARY KARL Bike Rider Awaits High Sign To Blow Siren But Is Forgotten A bright red velocipede, a rider, and a shiny siren greeted my weary eyes as I gazed at this strange feature perched on the red tiles of the first iioor corridor. I stood there and inquired of this modern Paul Revere if I could help give the alarm of the coming of the British. 'Tm not waiting for no British group. What l want is someone to stick his hand out of that door, as a signal for me to blow my siren. And he pointed to the stage door with a weary sigh. The faculty play is over and the doors are opened to reveal a laughing crowd of people. Well I'll be a son-of-a-freckled- cockroach!
