I never felt that it was your desire To push us only through the books, to seal In us some petty notions, but to fire Imagination. We were not prepared To live in solitude, pale, shy, and blind. No, for we were always tempted, dared, To search, explore, this globe which is the mind. It is not less than universally The lesson is intended--so I've thought. And if I live, but live inquiringly, I'll live in that same spirit that you taught. For this, of all the things that I'have learned, Has to my mind most frequently returned.

THE SCHOOL BOARD lembers of the school board are elected for four year terms with never more than three members elected at any one time. The board consists of five members. The officers are the president and the vice-president. A clerk of the board is hired to do the duties of secretary and treasurer. The business of the school board is to make policies with which to run the school. Special committees, within the board, are appointed by the president to perform such duties as selection of teachers, appropriation of money for the school, repairs for the buildings and grounds, and discipline problems . 2 ' W AQQRKWTYM 2 w JFHGULTW f' V ff L A 5 5 'fl 5 l 5GT1UlTxtbb GHOLA SW' Y f s.--ff lfxlyyf Nd '51-.Wf.':.- : 1 -Il- Z 51fnW, ' . - I ..

CINCINNATI IS, OHIO Dear Class of l9L9: When June rolls around and the time for Commence- ment arrives, your class will be the 65th class to graduate from Wyoming High. As you take your place in the Passing Parade of Wyoming graduates, you will assume certain responsibilities and traditions set by the classes that have gone on before you. One of the most important ones is the responsibility of making good use of the education you have received as students at Wyoming. Whether you go on to college or not, it will still be your responsibility to so conduct your- selves as to always reflect credit on your teachers and the school that has contributed such a large part to your lives up to this time. Wyoming High is proud of you and the contributions you have made, whether they were in the field of scholarship, student activities, or in the various forms of athletics. we are also proud of the interest you have shown in the activ- ities of the canmudiy. The spiritual side of our lives needs more emphasis and we hope your interest in things of a spiritual nature will continue to grow. All such contri- butions will do much to strengthen your character and help you to be a greater influence for good in the lives of those with whom you come-in contact. You have had the advantages found in good homes, good schools and good churches. It is partly your responsibility to see to it that those who follow in your footsteps have the same advantages or eve better advantages than the ones you have been permitted to enjoy. The entire faculty joins with me in extending to yo our best wishes for success and good fortune in whatever field of endeavor you may choose to serve, and as we look at the Passing Parade of classes from year to year we hope your banner may always be looked upon with joy and pride in worth- while achievements.

Barb Sturm: ef: Ale E LFISS On a dreary day in the fall of 1936 the red brick walls closed in forever on thirteen unlucky tots...NO! NO! I just can't do it. With a change in date that same corny beginning is used every year. This time it's going to be different. It was a sunny fall day, and the leaves were dropping from the trees like dead ducks, thereby handily furnishing employment for the village maintainance men. Tripping gaily through the leaves fand some- times falling on their faces, which explains the unusual appearance of some of the seniors todayj went the class of 1949, looking forward to their first day in kindergarten. While the girls--Jean and Joyce Alexancer, Dody Coughlin, joan Ricking, Barbara Sturm, and Nancy Greider smeared paint on their faces, Don Baxter had great fun burying Dale Haller, Harold Saunders, and Dave IcGinnis in the sand pile. Steve Fischer rode a hobby horse, while Bob Busener and Bill Fischer worked with paper and scissors. We understand that they were quite some cut-ups. First grade was just oodles of fun. As a class we sent in for Ralston cereal bowls and sample packages of the wholesome western break- fast food. we were already Cowboys in spirit. There must have been a mix-up in the packaging department because Lee Weber got included with the shipment. In the second grade Dick Lavender and Bill Brandt joined our merry pilgrimage through the halls of learning. No new members subscribed to our jolly band in the third grade. Fourth grade was a red letter year. We made life-sized paper mache cavemen. This taught us lots of history. One of the cavemen was call- ed One Eye.H If the other two had been accurately named, we would have called them One Arm and H One Leg. It was all one big happy family. Paul Barkman, George Howe, Gretchen Von Bargen, and Eddie Lippman joined us that year, thirsting for knowledge. CWater!j In the fifth grade we were already begging them to let us at the calculus. Instead they gave us Imogene Wilson and Thomas Richard Halberstadt, which was almost as good. In the sixth grade, naturally, we formed a club. We forget the name, but it was either junior Workers for Democracy, junior Scientists of America, or Junior G-Men. Take your choice. During recess we snooped around the playground and then tattled on our younger play- mates. Our club meetings were very impressive. The president would open by saying, We will now sing one verse of our club song. Don would then play two verses. We always went along with him. As elec- tions were held each six weeks the turnover in officers was rather high. Don was always there however: he was the only one who could play the piano. Hu5TnHw Seventh grade was lots of fun, our only disappointment coming when we found that we couldn't take Latin for another two years. f0h shuckslj Dave Platz and Dick Cryder joined us that year, Ajlthe girl! started keeping diaries. CHow much will you pay me to keep quiet, Dody?j Slam books were also the rage, but heck, everybody knows about them, fPractically everyone knew about the diaries, too.j In eighth grade we picked up Bently Scott and Lee Schimberg. Lee started off well by bouncing a spitball off liss Stansbury's piano during his first day at school. We also gave a henomenal operetta that year. CAlways wondered why Lee didn't have a part.j Ninth grade was wonderful. Big wheels at last. fHa!j That year jo Neal Sanders, Marietta Gentry, Ernest Roberts. and Gerald Garrett joined us in our pursuit ot knowledge. Qwe almost C8Ughf it, too.j In the tenth grade knowledge was breathing hot on our necks. flt was pursuing us now.j In spite of our reputations as genuine geniuses fwhat a hollow mockery!'5 we added larcia August. Yvonne Hunt, Dick Luther, and Bob Logan to our number. Last year, our junior year, we presented an excruciatingly funny play. Everybody just howled. CWe always were pretty good howlers.j Gwen Griffith was the only new member of our class that year. lr. Betz had been home from the wars for some time. but he did not engage any of the members of our class in skirmishes until that year. In Betz vs. junior Boys, Betz won an unqualified decision, but the class is appeal- ing on the charge that he packed the jury. And now, ladies and gentlemen, our senior year! Other classes before us have been seniors, true, but if there's something to be done we can do it differently. C That class is just walking around to save funeral expenses.'D le hailed six new students fLet's quit the pre- tense, we're not studentsj--Joyce Hale, Inez Chappell, Johanna Illing, lary Lou Carnes, janet Landrum, and john Nirider. Our officers for the year were president, Dave CHarry S.j lcGinnisg vice-president, Dick Cryder: secretary, Dody Coughlin: and treasurer Lee Heber. Our members-at-large, who worked with the otticers in con- ducting class business, were Steve Fischer, and Joyce Alexander. Re- presenting us on Student Council were larcia August as president, Steve Fischer as treasurer, and Gretchen Von Bargen. Practically paupers at the beginning of the year, the seniors pride themselves as ruble-raisers. lost of the money was raised through senior concessions with the help of our advisor, liss Culp. We have held many important positions this-year as you will see as you continue to read your yearbook. On a beautiful spring day, when the flowers are popping up like ducks in a shooting gallery, the members of the class of '49 will graduate. And will those juniors be Qlad to see us go!

Fuller. fSittilU T- Sllldlmfe JUNIOR CLASS All through grade school, we of the class of 1950 added to our knowledge and prestige. Now that we have reached our junior year we are almost at our peak. Last year we led the honor roll with the highest scholastic average and also upheld our athletic ability on all fields. J. Kindel, D. Smith, R. Unger, D. McGinnis, T. Skidmore, S. Black, B. jones, Cmanagerj, D. Muir, and M. Fuller were on the baseball squad. We were represented on the tennis team by H. Ryan, B. Short, and R. Shepherd. This year's champion football team boasted of 18 juniors: B. jones, B. Krumpe, B. Short, H. Bolton, D. Kent, T. Banks, S. Black, D. Gentry, R. Unger, D. Smith, H. Ryan, D. McGinnis, A. Gentry, T. Skidmore, H. Ful- ler, J. Kindel, D. Muir, and D. Daniels. Six of these boys started re- gularly. Two varsity cheerleaders, Nancy Simmons and Sally Hopple, are jun- iors. Many of us belong to such organizations as Hi-Y, Y-Teens, GAA, Youth for the U.N., Forensics, Corral, Oxford Team, and many others. So, under the leadership of our officers, T. Skidmore, president, Mark Fuller, vice-president, Lois Hall, secretary, and Dick Kent, treas- urer: along with our student council members, Howard Ryan and Betty Koehler, we hope to continue our upward progress and rate high among the graduating classes of Wyoming High School. i S!

Namely: Dick Evans, Tom Boyatt, Bill Clark, jim Eckhart, Don Bedson, Greg Hyatt, Bob Smith, Dave Dimling, Jim Gaines, joe johnson, Harvey Mullane, Tom Gaesslar, Charles Clay, Charles Green, Charles Stenson, and Bob Merrell. Most of the girls belong to G.A.A. Those on the hockey team are: Harriet Ryberg, Gloria Strohmenger, Pat Jervis, Mary Ellen Maxwell, Mary Breese, Marilyn Swisshelm, and Jean Dyehouse. Forensics is very popular with us, and those participating are: Pat Jervis, Cathy Sewell, Gloria Strohmenger, Bonnie MacKay, Susan Sid- dall, Bob Magee, Tom Boyatt, Peter johnson, Dave Dimling, Bill Bowen, Dick Evans, and Mary Ellen Maxwell. Plus a number of reporters, Bob Magee is Exchange Editor and Bob Smith is Managing Editor of the Eye.H Our boys graduated from Junior Hi-Y to Senior Hi-Y this year.

FRESHMAN CLASS We, the class of 1952, have taken the big step into high school, only to be looked down upon as measly Freshmen, but we were blessed with new members, Theresa Fox, Mildred Gorman, Margaret Gorman, Forrest Fraser, and Dave Daniels, a fact which helped to ease the pain. The boys overpowered the girls when the time came for our elections. The results were as follows: Powell Woodward, president: Mike Boyatt, vice-president, and Leslie Pitstick, secretary-treasurer. Our student council members are Brooks Wrampelmeier and Bill Kooyman. The freshman members of the football team were: Hugh Mcbiarmid, Mike Boyatt, Billy Long, Dan Willard, Forrest Fraser, Dave Busener, Bob Sears, Richard Greider, Dave Daniels, and Pete Serodino. Kitsy Mathews, Nancy Williams, and Elise joerling were chosen to be reserve cheerleaders. Our class was also well represented in forensics. One of our main projects this year was our dance, H The Turkey Strut.H Remember to tune in n us again next year, same time, same station. F. Fraser, L. Mclliilrlllid, B. Kooyman, elmeier, J.

We are represented on the new- ly established junior high council by Emily Romney, Barbara Halber- stadt, Caroline McGinnis, Dave Strain, Chuck Fischer, and Barry MacKay. These are but a few of the many activities that our class has been engaged in so far this year.

These are but a few of the trite Expressions we managers put up with. At the start of last year we Thought our job to be a cinch. Jurk's first brainstorm was that the Balls needed cleaning every day. We thought this quite a job Until the beginning of this year, jurk had another brilliant idea. Wyoming would look just too chic In flashy white shoes. WALKING BY PAT CLARK junior I like to walk in spring Through long rows of trees, For there's something about walking That sets my heart at ease. I like to walk in autumn In a drizzling kind of rain, For there's something about walking That frees my heart from pain. I like to walk in summer When the sky is clear and blue, For there's something about walking Seems to give me life anew. So now every week we joyously Await the cleaning of the shoes. I jjke to wa1k in winter And feel the nip of cold, For there's something about walking Manager! Where are my keys? Coming, Jurk! Oh well, I guess it could Be worse. That makes me strong and bold. WHEN TWE WIND IS BLOWING BY BARBARA BROIN junior When the wind is blowing here, Does it blow in China, too? Does it rustle the leaves on Scottish trees, And whip the sea of blue? Then I am in kinship with all the world, And the world's in kinship with me. No matter how far from friends I go, Alone I'll never be.

YEARBOUK STAFF The yearbook staff, soon after being selected, endeavored to plan to make this year's annual the best that Wyoming has ever had. They spent many hours of hard work on it, but it was well worth the effort. Heading the industrious staff was the editor-in-chief, Dorothy Coughlin, who was aided by the hard working faculty advisor, Mr. Naugle, and the assistant editors, Nancy Simmons and Rolfe DePuy. The intro- duction was written by Jane Taylor, and the senior section was in charge of Don Baxter. The editor of the other class write-ups was Betty Koehler. Lee Weber headed the section of activities, and Howard Ryan was in charge of the scholastic events. Editing the sports section was Dave McGinnis, varsity sports. Marcia August planned the G.A.A. section: and Bob jones, junior high and intramural sports. Doing the typing for the staff and also acting as head copy reader was Lee Schimberg. Others who did no writing for the yearbook, but who were still an important part of the staff, were the business manager and his assistant, Dale Haller and Bill Bowen. Jack Kindel was in charge of the advertising end of things, Don Thomas was head photographer, Betsey Eckey did the illustrations, and Gwen Griffith assembled the pages, be- ing make-up editor of the entire yearbook.

STUDENT COUNCIL This year's Student Council which will be remembered for the manY interesting programs and projects which it sponsored' was headed bY Mafcia August as president, Howard Ryan as ViCe'PfeSident' Beffv Koehler as sec' retary, and Steve Fischer as treasurer. Other members were Gretchen Von Bargen, senior: Bill Yorgen and Bill Bowen, sophomores, Brooks Wrampel- meier and Bill Kooyman, freshmen, Garvin McClain and Sharon Greer, eighth grade: and Peter Holzman and Penny Freedman, seventh grade. Among those presented in assembly programs of the Student Council during the past year were Jack Rank, 'The One Man Theater'Q and john Sloan, who gave a scientific demonstration. The blue and gold Wyoming notebooks, pencils, pens, and math tablets were among the numerous articles which the Council sold in order to make extra money for their activities. One of the changes which the Council made this year was to raise the required average for Honor Study Hall, so that only those students with a straight 2 average may enter. This proved to be an incentive for scholarship, because those students who had previously slipped by on a 2.5 average worked harder, so that they might again have a high enough average to get into Honor'Study Hall. The Student Council was under the excellent supervision of Mr. Harold Bush again this year. SITTING--C. lcllinnis, E. RUIIIBI, B. Halberstadt, C. Coughlin, C. Zitt, C. Sanders STANDING--l.

Boss JUNIOR HIGH STUDENT CULNCIL The junior High Student Council was organized last year so that the seventh and eighth grades might have more authority over their own activ- ities. It is composed of twelve members--six from the eighth grade and six from the seventh grade. This year the officers were the following: president, Emily Romney: vice president, Barry Mackay: secretary, Connie Coughling and treasurer, Caroline McGinnis. The members at large from the eighth grade were Barbara Halberstadt, Chuckie Fischer, and David Strain: those from the seventh grade were Cyn- thia Sanders, Carol Zitt, Wally Holzman, David Lyons, and Jon Boss. The council has sponsored several dances and a hayride during the year, and they have had other types of entertainment so that the seventh and eighth grade students have had more to occupy their time and have had much more fun.

If the innocent bystander on Wyoming Avenue hears this song echo- ing from the second floor of Wyoming High School on alternate Thursday nights, he knows that the 'Eye staff meeting is under way. It usually begins thus, with Don Baxter and Lee Weber singing 'Tt's Magic for the benefit of Miss Pellens, their faculty advisor. After Miss Pellens re- covers from the shock of hearing her favorite song ruined in such a way, things settle down a little and the mad rush to get the news typed and the copy read begins. Don Baxter and Nancy Simmons, the sport's editors, usually have the luck of having all their news in fairly early, so they roam around helping other editors less fortunate than they. Among these less fortunates, sometimes, are the feature editors, jane Taylor and Lee Schimberg, who need just a few more features to fill up their space. So, the combined editors set to work writing more 'hewsn for the Super Snoop- er. There are always old standby remarks to put in the Snooper, such as items about Don Baxter's harem and Lee Weber's Indian girl, so the space is gradually filled. Janie Fischer, the news editor, is not heard from too much during the evening, for most of her news is usually in. and she spends all her time rewriting it so that it will be presentable for pub- lication. The business manager, Dick Halberstadt, after he has typed his English theme for Friday, and the managing editor, Bob Smith, can be found, usually, lending a helping hand to everyone, including George Howe, the head typist. The photographer, Don Thomas, doesn't come to the meetings, as he has already taken his pictures and sent them to the engraver earlier. When the news is all typed, Nancy Greider, editor-in-chief, and Lee Weber, literary editor, frantically read it, correct it and count the inches on it. Nancy, who is the big boss, can be identified by her 'Eye meeting sweater, which is an ageless affair of billious green. The others a ways make unkind remarks about it and threaten to take up a collection to buy her another one, but it has no effect.

At the end of one and one half years, it had fifty-two members, and at present it has sixty-eight, an amazing number when you consider how small the total enrollment is at Wyoming. Those in the Wyoming Forensic Club belong to several leagues. One of these is the Greater Cincinnati Speech League to which nine other schools belong. They compete every two weeks, in addition to having two large tournaments each year, one in the spring, and one in the falL Last year, 1947-1948, Wyoming had several winners in these tournaments. The Forensic debators are Betty Koehler, Bonnie MacKay, Pauline Marx, Nancy Greider, Don Baxter, Howard Ryan. Bob Logan, Gerald Garrett. john Nirider, Dick Daniels, Bill Bowen, and Bob Magee. The team has won al- most every debate in which it has participated. During the 1947-1948 season, Wyoming was privileged to receive its National Forensics League Charter. This entitles those who have twenty or more points according to N.F.L. regulations to wear its pin, and also gives to Wyoming the privilege of attending various tournaments through- out the state. At present Wyoming chapter has twenty-one members. In state competition in 1948, the club had several winners who were its pride and joy. These were Marcia August, dramatic declamationp Barbara Burke, humorous declamationg Cliff Swan, oratorical declamationg Mark Fuller, oratorical declamationg Tom Skidmore, extemporaneous speaking, and Nancy Greider, extemporaneous speaking. Each of these persons placed in the upper seven of the state. But to the person to whom goes an even greater honor has been saved until last. She is Pat Elliott, who won first place in the state in dramatic declamation. One of the events in which forensic members took top honors was the Prince of Peace contest. Virginia McConnaughey won first in our school and progressed to the state finals. Pat Jervis was triumphant at the in- vitational meet at Dayton Oakwood. The Forensic Club does other things besides participating in com- petitive c ntests. For example, they have carried on coat-hanger drives, sponsored dances, and held bake sales and rummage sales in order to fi- nance fheil' f1'iPS to Dayton, Columbus, Springfield, and other out-of-town competitions. All in all, forensic members have done very well under the direction of Mr. Betz their faculty sponsor, and we expect them to do even better in the future. Griffith, G. Strohnenger. S-ICON! J.

While striving for this goal, the club has endeavored to help the girls become more useful members of their community. Last summer, the president, Patty jo Elliot, attended a state con- ference at Denison in preparation for assuming her responsibility of leadership and improving her club, with the assistance of the other of- ficers, Gwen Griffith, who was vice-president and worship chairman 5 Marilyn Easton, secretary: and Patsy Seebohn, treasurer. Again in the fall, Patty jo Elliot, with Marilyn Easton and Barbara Brown, attended the inspiring conference at Camp Lenmary, where they received many new ideas for their Y-Teen club. Then under the friendly guidance of Miss Craven, their new advisor, Circle W Y-Teens were prepared to start the year. The first event was a big bonfire at the athletic field for the potential new members. Two weeks later, these girls were inducted into Y-Teens at the impressive candlelight recognition service. Several hard-working girls sold school pennants at the football games to aid in raising money for contributions to various funds. Packing and sending Red Cross gift boxes to Europe was another service project. At a mneting with the Yueltide spirit, the members made Christmas cards to take to the old people at the Hamilton County Home when Y-Teens caroled there with Hi-Y at Christmas-time. At the first few'meetings in the new year, Y-Teens and Hi-Y ex- changed a questionnaire on boy-girl relations. The answers of the two clubs were tabulated and compared. This was the first time that a pro- ject of this type had been undertaken between them. During the year two excellent speakers visited Y-Teens. One was an experienced beauty councelor, and the other, a speaker from the Red Cross who offered some helpful hints on the art of baby-sitting. These programs were greatly enjoyed by the members. While these projects were being carried out in the regular bi- weekly meetings, several members were engaged in other activities spon- sored by the Y. W. C. A., such as writing club news to be published in the Gleam, the Y-Teen newspaperg attending vocational guidance meetings, ' - hoir- and working for leadership rings. belonfigegeniohblis :jig-:.eIi'aientine dance and also a closed barn dance with Hi-Y in the spring. To conclude the year's activities, the girls held 3 tea for their mothers, at which time the officers for next year were an- d. . nouncihis year we have tried to make the need for Y-Teen work evident not only to the high-school girls, but also to the community. It is hoped that, as a result of this year's efforts, Circle W Y-Teens has be- come, and will continue to be, a more vital part of the school and com- munity. ple, M. Breese, S. Siddall, S.

Gr HI-Y With forty-five enthusiastic members, under the leadership of their officers--Tom Skidmore, president, Dick Cryder, vice-presidentg Don Baxter, secretary, and Bob jones, treasurer--the Hi-Y has concluded an- other highly successful year. Two years ago, the club was given a quota of 3100 to fill for the World Youth Fund. At our Thanksgiving assembly, Tom Skidmore, on behalf of the club, presented to Mr. Grimm, general secretary of the YWCA in Cincinnati, a check for 3100, the full amount of the quota. This was of special significance because the boys filled their three year quota in only two years, and they were the first club in the entire Cincinnati area to complete their pledge. The World Youth Fund was set up to help rebuild the Y's all over the world, which were destroyed by the war. In order to reach their goal, the club conducted a clothespin campaign during the last week in October, using the proceeds for their World Youth Fund pledge. It was felt that in this way each boy could best realize the true meaning of the gift. The club hopes to make this campaign an annual affair. In the field of yearly projects, the club continued to operate the profitable and convenient hat-check at the basketball games. The football field too, found the Hi-Y at work, as the boys sold prograns and operated the scoreboard1 Through the medium of regular discussion meetings, constructive projects, and stimulating worship services, the Hi-Y of Wyoming is attempting to bring to the boys a true feeling of Christian brother- hood and service. 1' F AU CW? l f af . 49 I .

At different times throughout the year, hayrides, swimming and skat- ing parties, trips to lashington and Detroit, and the annual banquet are planned for the members. The biggest event of the Corral season, how- ever, is the Hite Club. This is an annual affair which is given by the Corral members for their parents. All the members work hard on the night of this event, serving as waitresses, waiters, cigarette girls, or putting on a show for entertainment. Among Corral's projects are the following: contributing to the Community Chest and the Red Cross, and at Christmas time having a Christ- mas party for a number of foster children at the Oak Street school. All these activities are planned and carried out by the Corral Board under the supervision of the new acult advisors, Hr. and Hrs. Muir. The officers of the organization are Dave McGinnis, president, Dick Cryder, vice-president, Nancy Simmons, secretary: and Mary Ann McIlwain, treas- urer. Other board members are Steve Fischer, Happy Fuller, Bonnie MacKay, and Dave Dimling. Lee Weber, Betty Koehler, Howard Ryan YOUTH FUR THE U. N. Youth for the United Nations is the newest organization in the high school and was founded to create more enthusiasm for, and more under- standing of, the United Nations. Even though it was begun Just last year, it has already brought worldwide fame to WYOMIHQ-Hlgh School through the transatlantic broadcasts from a Paris high school bY Rfibelzt Qdalfj During these broadcasts, Hr. Adair. who was representing the C1nC1Un8t1 United Nations Organization in Europe, mentioned our high school and re- peated several questions which students from our school sent for him to ask French students. Our organization has also received national notices, from time to time, by reports about it in the Scripps-Howard papers. Several other schools in this vicinity have, through our aid and encouragement, started chapters of their own. This group includes Lock- land High School, and Hamilton High School, among others. A chapter was begun even in faraway Korea. The officers of the organization are the following: Howard Ryan, president: Betty Koehler, secretary: and Lee Weber, treasurer. BAND The Wyoming School band has made a splendid comeback this year under the able direction of Hr. Charles Benner, the new instructor. Nearly thirty students participated in this excellent activity and took part in many programs. Among those activities were the following: march- ing at the home football games, playing for assemblies, giving concerts, and performing at the junior and senior plays. At the basketball games, a small group of the band members played as a German band. This was de- finitely a new and novel attraction and was very well received. Several of the band members attended a 'band clinicn at the Uni versity of Cincinnati for a weekend, at which they learned many inter- esting and educational things. Wyoming School has reason to be proud of its band this year, for it has, more than usual, taken an active part in making the school pro- grams and activities more enjoyable and complete. 18 r ,t G L I 'K 4 E ' fp f hum? . ,. wp .jf pt., ,iz 3 QA 'UJIJQLQQ T' .1 - 1 g xi t 32 I a I, at g g ff.

They have enlarged their scope of ac- tivities to include promoting worthwhile projects in the entire village, rather than limiting their efforts to the school welfare alone. They have nevertheless, continued to support school activities with as much enthu- siasm as ever. The competent officers of the club for this year have been the follow- ing: Philip S. Willard, presidentg Gilbert Lortz, vice-president, James Hunter, secretary: and William Meyers, treasurer. The Wyoming Boosters is certainly a worthwhile organization and de- serves much praise for the help they have given to our school and village. P. T. A. During the l948-1949 season, the theme of the Wyoming P.T.A. was Hy Child in Our Community.H The speakers consisted of representatives of local groups which sponsor child welfare projects. Throughout the year, the programs were built to acquaint the parents with the activities of of the Wyoming Schools outside the regular curriculum. Several student programs were also presented. The mothers were very interested in the discussion groups held once a month during the morning. Mrs. Claude M. Lotspeich of Cincinnati was the leader of these groups and she discussed child training and family life. ' Among the many P.T.A. projects were contributing to Corral, the sum- mer playground, band, forensics, and grade school programs, and sponsor- ing adult classrs in ceramics and typing, and children's classes in tap dancing and ballet. The P.T.A. had six hundred members, from whom were drawn the follow- ing fine officers: Hrs. G.T. Addis, president: Hrs. Ed Kruchemeyer, Hrst vice-president: lr. Ferol E. Betz, second vice-president: Irs. Conrad Williams, treasurer: Mrs. j.S. Hclath, recording secretary: and Mrs. Fred Townley Jr., corresponding secretary. Hrs. C.j. Robertson and Hrs. Willard are the members-at-large.

UXFURD TEAM Above is shown the well-chosen team selected to represent Wyoming High School in the state-wide scholarship examinations. On May 1, 1948, at Oxford, Ohio, we showed both what had and had not been learned during the year. Again the results were admirable. Four students aAnn Lockeman, Carolyn Meyers, Bob Logan, and Dick Halberstadt--received second place in the state regardless of the size of our school, thus doing better than almost seven hundred competitors. CLM LALDE Immediately following the annual scholarship banquet late last year, the first initiation ceremonies of the exclusive Cum Laude Society were held. This honorary high school organization has a membership of only a few more than one hundred high schools throughout the nation. The fol- lowing are the requirements for admittance into Cum Laude: flj to have spent at least two years at Wyoming High School. C21 to have earned at least 15 academic units in the departments of English, Social Science, Science, Foreign Languages, and Mathematics. C3j to have 1.9 as a min- imum average. C4j to rank in that portion of the senior class which is eligible for election according to the set scale. To graduate Cum Laude is a rare distinction, and those that have done so are given proper recognition after graduating from high school. NATIUNAL HONOR SUCIETY National Honor Society is a purely honorary organization under the National Education Association. Only the upper third of a class scholas- tically is eligible, and then only five percent is chosen in the junior year, and ten percent in the senior year of a class. This society, spon- sored by Miss Williams, bases its selection of members on character, leadership, and service. The active members are Dody Coughlin and Nancy Greider, as well as those selected in February. This organization spon- sored an assembly on world affairs, bv Miss Miriam Urban. a professor of political science. Also, on March 29, it offered scholarship exam- inations, in which the ten highest people in the United States receive three-hundred dollar scholarships. This honor society, with its members and activities is indeed a credit to our school. 4 N Left to right--M. August, T. Skidmore, N. Greider, G. Palmer floderatorl, B. Ryan. JUNIOR TOWN MEETING On November 1, 1948, a junior Town Meeting was broadcast from our high school auditorium. The question discussed was: Should the United Nations Be Revised Into a Federal World Government? After a short speech on the subject Marcia August, Tom Skidmore, Nancy Greider, and Howard Ryan presented their arguments, the former for a federation of nations. and the latter decidedly against it. Subsequently the speakers were questioned intelligently by the student body which seemed very compre- hensive of the topic. Following-the comparatively placid program, two of the speakers were seen practically coming to blows. After the fine showing by our school, everyone, including the junior Town Meeting re- presentatives from WSAI, seemed well pleased. HELLO B Left to right--B. Brown, G. lcconnaughey, T. Skidmore, J. Kindel. The prominent junior Class represented our Alma Mater on the Hello Teacher Program October 24. Virginia McConnaughey, Barbara Brown, Tom Skidmore, and jack Kindel participated, while alternate Hap Fuller sat in the audience equipped with the-Encyclopedia Britannica and a semaphore flag. They all did well, although reprimanded for not knowing the dif- ference between an iceburg and a potato. The outcome was that Wyoming defeated Highlands High School of Kentucky by a safe margin. Thus, Ginny, Barb, and Tom received pencils for their contribution to the program. The high scorer for our team was Jack Kindel, whose score was just less than that of the high scorer from Highlands. For this, Jack received a key chain. The winning streak of the present junior class on Hello Teacher was extended to four years out of four. TEACHER Left to right--C. Fischer, E. Romney, G. Meyer, D. Strain. Sunday, December 26, was marked by another Wyoming victory on the Hello Teacher program broadcast over WKRC. This time it was an eighth grade team composed of Gretchen Meyer, Emily Romney, Chuck Fischer, and David Strain. For defeating a Glendale team, Gretchen, David, and Chuck received repeater pencils, and Emily received a beautiful Gruen wrist- watch by merit of having the highest score on either of the two teams. First rol--R. DePuy, P. Elliott, B. Brom, J. Taylor, B. Koehler, P. larx, D. Ooughlin, D. Halber- stadt. Second row--D. Thomas, J. Kindel, B. Logan, H. Ryan, S. Fischer, D. Bartels, B. Bowen.

It has really become an honor to belong, for one must have at least a 2 average, as well as to be approved by a large plurality of the Stu- dent Council and of the faculty. As yet Honor Study Hall has no permanent room: the study hall must be held in rooms vacant during the period. Everything is running smooth- ly though, and much is accomplished.

True, we share this honor, being co-champions along with Lock- land and Reading, but we had as much claim to the title as anyone else. This three way tie resulted when the three teams finished the season with identical 4-1 records. Wyoming suffered its only loss to Lockland, 13 to Og Lockland lost only to Reading, 12 to 05 while Reading bowed only to Wyoming, 19 to 13. Wyoming's usual starting lineup consisted of co-captain Dick Cry- der and Dave Smith at ends, Paul Barkman and Dick Kent at tackles, Don HcGinnis and Bob Busenet at guards, and Dave Gentry at Center. In the backfield were jack Kindel, Don Bedson, Hap Fuller, and co-captain Dave McGinnis. IYOIING ON TIIE UFFENSE AGAINST IALNUT HILLS McGinnis was the team's leading scorer with 65 points for the sea son. In addition to his fine running he also handled most of the pas sing and punting. Barkman, Cryder, and McGinnis were selected for the All-Valley Team because of their outstanding play during the season It is unfair to single out these three as the particular stars as the whole team played well and as a unit.

VARSITY BASKETBALL With the return of five lettermen to the first basketball practice, Coach Jurkovic's prospects were the best in recent years. The boys lived UP to expectations and had very little difficulty in winning the MVIL championship for the second straight year. The starting line up was formed with Dave McGinnis, captain, Dick Cfydeff Troy Banks: jack Kindel, and Ernest Roberts alternating with Ron Unger most of the season. Howard Ryan, Hap Fuller, and Don Bedson were all excellent subs. During the season the squad won 13 of the 16 games played, two of The games were lost to Class A schools, and one of those, the Walnut Hills game W8S 10st by the narrow margin of one point. The league record was 9 and 1. The only game lost was at St. Bern- ard by one point. With only three boys graduating in june, Coach jurkovic will be in line for his third straight championship, we predict. Dave McGinnis, playing his third year for the varsity led the team to their second straight EVIL League championship. Dave's floor generalship, accurate passing, and consistent scoring ability has placed him on the Greater Cincinnati All Star teams. This is his last season at Wyoming. Troy Banks, a junior, had another good season and will be tops next year. Troy's speed, rebounding, and work at the center position has earn- ed him recognition in high school basketball circles. Troy was a member of the City All Stars team this winter, Dick Cryder playing his last year turned in an excellent defensive job. His passing and floor work will be greatly missed next year. Dick was the scrappicst and one of the best rebounders on the squad. He was also chosen on the City All Star team. Ernest Roberts was probably one of the smoothest and most underrated boys on the team. Ernie was great on defense and he was a good-point ma- ker. He could always be counted upon when needed most. This is his last year. jack Kindel will be around next season to help bring Wyoming their third straight championship. Jack is outstanding for his coolness, pas- sing and long shots. We will be hearing big things of him in his senior year. Ron Unger, the big boy with the natural ability, should be one of the top scorers in the league next season. R is a dead shot on the foul line and holds second game scoring honors with 19 points in the Reading game. Howard Ryan is another big boy who will be heard from next season. u Howien came through with the long shots when we needed them. Don Bedson, the smallest boy on the squad, is a sophomore and he will make basketball fame in the next two years. Weed's defensive work was excellent. Hap Fuller, another junior responded admirably whenever called upon and should develop into a long shot artist. He will be 8 Valuable player. Don McGinnis, Bud Short, and Dick Muir will be heard from next season as they all turned in good work when they had the opportunity. They are all juniors. Dick Cryder, Daae McGinnis, and Ernie Roberts will graduate in June, but the rest of the squad will be back next season.

In the Valley League their re- cord was seven wins and three losses. The usual starting lineup for the Little Cowboys was Greg Hyatt, Pete Ray, jim Gaines, Bob Smith, and Bill Yorgen. Mr. Fread was the coach of this team, and he did an excellent job. Next year many of the boys who played most this season will be members of the varsity squad. There are quite a few freshmen remaining though, and with the new freshmen next year, the team should be good. These are the scores of the season's games.

However, under the excellent guidance of their new coach, Mr. Sheppard, they are showing definite signs of improvement, and with more practice will develop into a first class quintet. The players on the team are Gerry VonBargen fcaptainj, Harry Hoffman, Don Hauser, Chuck Fischer, Warren Hagen, Ted Marty, Don Langefeld, Barry MacKay, Garvin McClain, David Strain, john Kingsley, Wally Holzman, Bobby Holzman, Peter Holzman, Clinton Wagner, Louis Rauh, Dick Kindel, Barney Burke, and Jack Spangler.

BASEBALL The Wyoming Cowboys finished the baseball season in a tie for se- cond place in the MVIL League, having won 4 and lost 4. They also suf- fered two defeats at the hands of Plainville and Country Day School, both schools being outside the league. The first time out the team split a doubleheader with Lockland, Biggs of Lockland winning the first game 14-2, and McGinnis of Wyoming pitching a fine game to win, 9-2. Both games with St. Bernard were won by Wyoming, 3-1 and 8-7: McGinnis notching his second win in the first, and Skidmore gaining credit for the second. Reading then took two games from the Cowboys, 17-6, and 10-0. North College Hill got an even break, beating McGinnis 4-1, while Unger turned back the Trojans 7-4. Plain- ville with a fine team beat us 12-0, and then Country Day outlasted Wyom- ing, winning 12-8. Graduation took Bob Bell, Ed Hopple, Neil Staib, Dick Smith, Bob Kramig, Bill Dunn, and Eddie Glaser. Much is expected in 1949 from Dave lcGinnis, Dick Muir, Sandy Black, Ronald Unger, Hap Fuller, Dave Smith, jack Kindel, Bill Yorgen, Don McGinnis. and Paul Barkman. Coach jurkovic has 1 the boys some fine base- ball and there is no reason why the Cowboys should not have an out- standing team. With the interest shown and the improvement continued, baseball might well be- come a major sport at Wyoming. lst ll0W--Don McGinnis, R. Unger zna now--s. suck. D- Smith. Dive McGinnis, 3rd ROW--M.

TRACK Last year, for the first time in many years, Wyoming had a track team of which it could be proud. The Cowboy cinder-men placed in every meet in which they entered, and piled up a total of 311M points during the year in the various meets. Responsible for most of the points during the year were four boys: Don Bedson, C51 5f8jg Troy Banks, C45 3f4jg Dick Halberstadt, C40 1f2jg and joe johnson, C29 3f8j. Hubert Mynatt, Jim Gaines, jim Arnold, Pete Ray, Ernest Roberts, Al Gentry, Don McGinnis, Dick Kent, Dave Dimling, Bob Taylor, Rolfe DePuy, and Don Harvey were the other boys who added points to the team total. There were two outstanding features of this year's track team- These were the 880 yard relay team and the junior division team that won the MVIL championship for the second year in a row. The relay team, composed of Troy Banks, Pete Ray, Joe johnson, and Don Bedson, after taking second place in the district went up-state and came out of the conflict with a fourth place in the state of Uhio. This team will be back for two more years. The junior Division boys walked off with the honors in the MVIL meet as they piled up a total of 56 points, including firsts in the 100, 120 low hurdles, half-mile, broad jump, 880 yard relay, and the 50 yard dash. In the District meet, in addition to the second place garnered by the relay team, Banks took second, and Bedson fourth, in the broad jump, Hynatt placed third in the discuss, and Halberstadt took a fifth in the 220 yard low hurdles. Mr. Bush ekpects to have even a better record this year than last, as he is planning to add a mile relay team and other events which were lacking last year to the team.

Although the record of 13 wins as against 9 losses doesn't seem too impressive, it isn't too bad, considering that 13 of the 22 varsity matches were against Class A schools and that only one of the matches was lost by a score of worse than 2-3. Among the larger schools which fell to the Cowboys were Purcell, St. Xavier, Hamilton Catholic, Hamilton Pub- lic, Covington Holmes, and Norwood. Wyoming, as usual, dominated the play in the MVIL. Two Cowboy teams were entered in the Valley League tournament and the one composed of Lee Schimberg, Howard Ryan, Don Baxter, Bob Smith, Dick Halberstadt, Dale Haller, and Bob Logan came out on top by defeating Lockland in the finals. In the district tournament the Cowboys didn't do so well. Howard Ryan entered in the singles, and Don Baxter and Bill Bowen in doubles. All were eliminated in the early rounds. None of Wyoming's entries in the Metropolitan tourney won but Bonnie MacKay reached the finals in the fifth singles bracket before she was eliminated. Wyoming was also represented with a reserve team. Their record of no wins and six losses wasn't very good but the boys also gained needed experience. Coach Naugle is looking forward to another fine team this season. No seniors were lost and lettermen Dave McGinnis, Lee Schimberg, Don Baxter, Howard Ryan, Bill Bowen, Bonnie MacKay, Ronnie Shepherd, Bob Smith, Bud Short, and Steve Fischer will all return. This team should certainly im- prove on its 1948 record. VARSITY WYO. OPP.

Under the excellent coaching of Mr. Naugle the team did very well, winning three games and losing two to larger schools. Jane this Kiss BOKS The girls' junior high tennis team was composed of Pat Curtis, Mary Robinson, Hartha Krehbiel, and Nancy Williams.

Roosevelt Wyoming Roosevelt SENIOR HIGH INTRAMURALS Shortly after the basketball season got under way, the senior high intramural teams were chosen. Under the able guidance of Mr. Ruley, five captains were elected: the sixth team was made up of members of the faculty. The teams were captained by Dick Halberstadt, Larry Eller- horst, Dick Kent, Burnice Davis, and Tom Skidmore. Each team played five Friday afternoon games in the first round and five in the second round. A tournament was held after the second round. At the end of the first round, Dick Kent's team and Tom Skidmore's team were tied for first place. J I U N N T I R U A R M U H R I A G L H S When the Weather started turning cold and all of the football equipt- ment had been put in the attic. the junior high boys had an intramural basketball meeting. They elected four captains, and the captains chose their teams. The captains were B. MacKay, G. VonBargen, D. Strain, and G. McClain. The schedule was posted and the teams started battling it out in the gym every Wednesday afternoon. Mr. Sheppard was in charge and kept everything running smoothly. The boys played a tournament starting on Wednesday, February 23, and finishing the following Wednesday, March 2. 2:1 U . .x f '--:Eta G 'a:::sii'E5:: :::- I ,W ll A Q V l?E-I.

The G.A.A. officers are elected by the girls in the organization the spring preceding the term of office. The president must be from the sen- ior class, the vice-president, from the junior class: the secretary from the sophomore class, and the treasurer from the freshman class. This year's officers were Dody Coughlin, president: Lois Hall, vice-president: Bonnie MacKay, secretary: and Kitsy lathews, treasurer. Miss Williahson was the faculty advisor. T The G.A.A. sponsored the girls' intramural sports, entertained the interscholastic teams from other schools after their games had been play- ed, gave several dances, and provided varied activities for the members.

Marilyn Swisshelm was forced to drop out because of a severe head injury. Harriet Ryberg and Lois Hall were sporting bandages on chin and ankle respectively, and jinny Mathews was sporting two black eyes, but, other than that, the team was in pretty good shape for its first game. Finally the big day came. On October 25th the following girls took the field against Terrace Park: Lois Hall, Charlotte Harvey, Nancy Joerling, Sue Siddall, Gloria Strohmenger, Patsy Jervis, jinny Mathews, Kitsy Mathews, Harriet Ryberg, Mary Breese, Mar- ilyn Easton, and Marietta Burns. Although Sue Siddall scored a goal for Wyoming, Terrace Park came out'on top in the end, 4-1. After the game milk and cookies were served at Terrace Park. For the next week the girls worked hard and ironed some of the dif- ficulties out which had been discovered in the previous game. On November Ist they journeyed to Maderia. The same girls played with these few exceptionsg Sue Siddall was out with a painful nose injury Knot suffered in hockeyj so Mary Ellen Maxwell and Joyce Hale went in her place. Wy- oming again scored, this time Lois Hall taking honors, but again this was not enough as Haderia won 2-1. VOLLEYBALL r ,V V , . k g L Y A S c ,215 c FIRST ROI--lleft. to right!--I. Slisshelm, J.

Now let's give three cheers for the cheerleaders! The four var- sity cheerleaders well deserve this applause for doing such a good job of leading the school in its cheers for victory! The girls are not no- vices in this activity either. All of them, except one, have had at least years experience in this field. Dody Coughlin, who is a senior, has been a cheerleader for four years, and is well qualified for the position of head cheerleader. Dody does not end her accomplishments with being a cheerleader. She is also Editor of the Yearbook, President of G.A.A., President of National Honor Society, and secretary of the senior class. Nancy Simmons, a junior, has been a cheerleader for two years. This year, however, is her first on the varsity cheering team. Nancy works on the Eye and the Yearbook and is also active in G.A.A. and Forensics. This year she is the juniors' representative on the Corral board. Sally Hopple, also a junior, started cheering with Nancy two years ago. This is also her first year on the varsity team. She works on the u Eye and is in G.A.A. Marilyn Swisshelm, only a sophomore, is participating in her first year on the varsity cheering team. Because of an illness jane Taylor, a cheerleader last year, was unable to cheer this year, and so the other three cheerleaders got their heads together and chose Marilyn to take her place. She has done a swell job this year and will undoubtedly be a varsity cheerleader next year. Along with cheerleading, she is also active in G.A.A., being on both the interscholastic vollyball and basketball teams. jane, who will be a senior next year, hopes that she will be able to take up her old job of cheerleading then. These four cheerleaders have a job that is not easy. Besides cheer- ing at the games, they plan pep assemblies, practice, and work out new cheers and cheering formations. Wyoming has always been proud of its cheerleaders, and this year is no exception. The school couldn't ask for four better girls to represent it in the roll of cheerleaders. LEFT T0 RIGHT- -Marilou Neltnor, Kitsy Mathews, Elise Joerling, Nancy Williams. The reserve cheerleaders were chosen in about the second week of November. Those chosen were: Marilyn Swisshelm, Elise joerling, Nancy Williams, and Kitsy Mathews. The latter two were junior high cheerlead- ers last year. Marilyn moved up to the varsity, and Marilou Neltnor also a junior high cheerleader last year, took her place. The girls have had three practices a week during the basketball season and have helped plan some of the pep assemblies. Each member of the quartet is active in many other extra curricular activities. They are going to try out for cheerleading again next year in hopes of cheering the Cowboys on to victory once more.
