Chewing · Gum, Boxes, Cameras Show 'reachers Weak Budgeteers

\Vhether or not it has been noti ced before, John Hay students are endowed with a creative talent for drawing and printing. Thi s so-called artistic instinct is so str ong that they are feverishly impelled to di splay their creations, although it rnay be in extremely conspicuous and scarcely suitable places.

In examining the study hall desks, one curious Hayite brought to light some very interesting but al so amazing bits of information, Desk tops are literally covered with, what-issupposed to be, decorations. Findings show that the most popular celebrities of the supposedly studying students are Mickey Mouse, Joe Palooka , Lindbergh and Mae West. The motion picture which is leading as favorite is "San Francisco" and the two colors found most often hewed in desk lids (Need thi s be mentioned?) are green and gold. Data on every subject imaginable is found in what appears to have been pai nstaking carving. On one desk there even was a memorial It read, "To Tip, a dog who was born August 14, 1930 and who died October 14, 1936."

Long columns of figures run down the length of seve~·al of the desks leaving the mark of a bookkeeping or sT~i~s, 'l s~dent behind. The

t3 '73. oo

scores of ath let ic games and notes on other school activities, are not only grooved deeply, but a lso painted g laringly as well , in red, blue, green, and purple inks. Several endearing phrases, show that even love lette1·s written to sweethearts are first rehearsed upon the poor defenseless s labs of wood. Hand drawn portraits of winsome dam sels and gallant gentlemen, enshrined in hearts and roses, adorn more than one desk top, but strangely enough, profiles of maidens outnumber the sheiks ten to one.

However, the most outstanding example of all has not been touched upon as yet. This is a desk in Room 310, the last row and the last seat, which perhaps may account for the excessively bountiful design upon its surface. It exhibits drawings and printing so profuse t hat nothing making any sense at all can be read. After gazing atl it for fully five minutes one finally comes to the conclusion that if it isn't modernistic art, then it certainly is an excellent example of "Surrealism"!

In conclusion, may I repeat the words of a well-known advertising teacher who always says, "If you're worth remembering, your names on the table tops won't be necessary, and if you're not your initials only serve as a painful reminder;"

Miss Soisson ex plained that she does like to pay· John Hay a vis it now and then but for permanency she will just remain loyal to the Annex.

The "only male member of the faculty" (as he described himself) Mr. Philip E. Kaufmann, >vas loud in hi s approval of the Annex , li s ting several advantages such as fewer class interruptions, simpli city of clerical work and (this is personal) a more advantageous dash to the parking space.

In conc1usion the teachers a ll agreed that the quiet and peace of the Annex halls is most enjoyable and therefore they will remain confirmed Annexites .

Ex-Hayite Works at East Tech Georgiana Janoch, who graduated

from John Hay last June, is employed as secretary and ass istant to the Student Council adviser of Eas t Tech High, Miss Ethel Parmenter. While at John Hay, she held the offices of vic~ presidentl of the Student Counci l, Study Hall committee chairman, and secretary in the InterSchool Conference of Student Leaders.

The arrival of the monthly check is always joyously heralded by the teachers of John Hay and plans for its immediate disposal are b<>gun. Un-doubtedly in many instances it is used for a nobl e and worthy ca use , but there are so me weaknesses alias "pet extravagances" which our brilliant instmctors cannot overcome despite their economic-consumer conscience.

Miss Metha L. Wulf1 teacher of commercial geography, h·as a painful time trying to curb her weakness for boxes. A curious individua l may find her desk drawer practically littered with them, the small ones predominating. Mr. Phillip H . Kaufmann , instructor of B. I. & M., is mechanically ii;clined and would willingly sacrifice even hi s last pay check in favor of machinery tools; whil e Mr~ Harold D. Kester, wrestling coach, finds that neckti es are an irresi stible lure to him. Needless to say, Mr. Kester is the joy and pride of every local haberdasher.

Mr. William L. Moore, principal, and Mr. Loui s E. Welton, a ss istant principal, believe their downfall to be hidden in the purchase of fishing tackles and hunting guns . And to hear some of their fi sh sto ries one gets the idea that if a fi sh gets away a tragedy has occurred in the Moore and Welton families . Mr. Edward F.

J crrow, !wad of the soc ia l science department:, will r eadil y dec lare voluntary bankruptcy and forego his villainous enjoyment of changing pupil's five-hour program s for the opportunity of s moking hi s peace pipe.

Miss Frances E. Frazer, teacher of Engli sh, has a pet- extravagance which runs in gallons- in short, Miss Frazer is· trying to wear t he old "bus" out in order fo prepa re for the coming •ag model. Mr. Leonard R. Schneider, biology teacher, has a seasonal extravaganee of buying ice crea m cones for t he wife; while Mr. John C. Everard, economi cs teacher, just cannot pass up a drugstore without indu lging in a package of chewing gum. He does not (of course) chew it in class, although hi s pupil s are a bit sarcastic on the subi ec t.

A f ew of the i~ structo rs like Mr. John W. Craig and Mr. Karl 0. Suessenguth looked decidedly glum and maintained that no extravagance could be afforded (but spec ulations have been made a s to the cost of the fees which Mr. Suessenguth pays for the privilege of belonging to the Camera Quorum).

The other faculty membe1·s listed their extravagances a s : gardening, theatre, horse-back riding and other conservative (?) items which will probably deflate the forthcoming check considerably.

Mary's excuse was that it looked as though it were going to rain. Jean became angry saying that this was the last time she was ever going anywhere with her as she was always late or breaking appointments without notice. Mary was apologetic and they remained friends.

They graduated from high school and both got excellent situations in offices. Jean was promoted for her good work to a responsible position. Mary happened to be lookirig for work at this time and asked her if there were any places open. Jean knew there were but could not risk recommending an unreliable person.

Come Behind the Scenes; Get First Hand News of Plays By AI Ru:.s

At the risk of a li enating the affections of several of my colleagues and some very important school officials (well , school officials, anyway) I have gone through fire ~1nd water to bring to you, my readers, both of you, probably the g r eatest story that ever hit this column, or ever will , as a matter of fact.

What 1 a.m, about to disclose to you is ·rea.lly a t?·emelldous scoo]j, if you happen to care fo ·r that sort of thing. What is it? Yu1~ want to know? Sltnuld I tell yon? Well, he1·e it is: They have chosen the ]Jlay which will be {]iven ns the Senim· Pla11 for this se111este r.

After much controversy (I clare say), the play finally decided upon was "Tommy," by Howard Lindsay and Bertrand Robinson. It is a highly hilarious comedy in three acts a nd that's about all I can tell you about it at this early date except, perhaps, that it is a very fine play.

And, oh yes, the cast has not yet been chosen. But as soon as the cast is announced, in fact, before · it is announced, as soon as it is chosen, you'll read about it in this column. Detectives Are Loose

Mr. Gebauer is being called "Sherlock" by his Stagecrafters, for some uncanny reason which we have not been able to disclose. He usually retaliates with a "Mr. Watson." The only reason that I can think of for such unfitting titles is that they a ll may be looking for "The Lost Chord" which, it is rumored, Mr. Rambo lost last semester somewhere on the stage.

And now, I guess that's about all the "hash" I can feed you at one sitting so I guess I'll just stick my typewriter in my pocket and mosey along. I'll be seeing you BEHIND THE SCENES.

A scrappy Benedictine eleven struggled to a scoreless tie with a heavy John Hay t eam in a tough battle at Thomas Edison last Friday. Hay's defensive ability was again proven, for the plucky boys in blue were unable to make any serious threats; Hay, however, was unable to score even once. The Hallmen tried line-smashing until the latter moments of the game when, in desperation they resorted to passing.

The first quarter found both teams playing conservative football and only one serious threat made. Zimlich punted high to t he Benedictine 3-yard stripe, and Lou Trabitz swept clown the field dropping· quarterback Mahall in hi s tracks, but Vassilly immediately punted out of danger to his own 45-yard line.

Benedictine uncorked the old 'Sleeper Play" and gain ed 25 yards when Schmidt passed to Vassilly .

Late in the seco nd quarter, s uperb blocking by Beskid, who exhibited a keen brand of in te rfe rence throughout lhe game, gave Hay a ga in of 17 yards. Zimlich carried t he ba ll on thi s play, but it was lost on downs. After Bened ictine r eeled off a first down, the Hay line held and the Lenschmen lost the ball on down s. On the next play Paul Beskid s lashed through the middl e of t he line for 21 yards and a f irst down on the Benedictine 47. The half ended afte1· Zimlich passed to Bars ic for 8 ya rds

Hay Takes to Air

As the third pe riod s tarted, Bijik r eeled ofl 15 yards on an off-tack le s lant. On the next play Vassilly ran to the Hay 42 f o11 the second down in two plays. He r e the Green andt Gold tightened theit· defe nse and .Benedictine lost the baH on down s.

After half the final quarter had elapsed , the Carneg iemen took to the air. A short pass to Mi chael who late ralled to Margoli s netted a first clown on the midfi eld stripe. A play s imilar to the former, but worked from the right s ide of the line, ne tted another firs t down. After two line smashes n etted the Green and Gold nothing, Beskid passed to Zimlich f or thirteen yards . H owever, thi s spurt was quiet ed when Schmidt intercepted a long pass from Zimlich.

The 'Sleepers Last week the Leclget· football

scout made a statement to the effect that the local eleven would lose if t hey did not look out for a certain play call ed the " sleeper."

Although Hay did not lose, they did look rather childish, when one of the oldest plays in the hi story of football was executed agains t them by the small Benedictine team. That one play was good for a twenty-yare! non-inte rferen ce by the Hallmen .

Thi s ve ry sa me play was attemptecl a second time without s ucce ss, but its fai lure was t he r es ult of a poor pass,

Cl?:nt's accurate kicking enabled the Local boys to get out of a very embarrassing situation late in the third quarter in the game against ' St. Benedictine, last Friday.

The picture was snapped just as the ball left Zimlich's cleated toe. On the extreme left Bob Michael, playing end, is running down the fielc4 to recover the ball. No. 30, No. 3-~, and No. 25 are Benedictine men racing backJ to block the kick. Paul B eslcid, fullback, is guarding Z.imlich from any enemy that might have sneaked through the fast and low changing line.

This game was played at Thomas Edison field and was the first S ena te tilt for both teams.

300 Needy Students Seek N.Y.A. Aid 125 Chosen; Must

Two Periods to Maximum Wage Dollars

Work Earn of · Six

"Approximately 300 N. Y. A. app-lications have come in so far, and of these, more than 1?5 have been accepted," revealed Mr. John B. Zulauf, supe1·v isor of N. Y. A. work last weelc

"Those who are in need of money and would lik e to join the N. Y. A. must fill out an application stating theii.· need for work," he added. Must Carry Three Points

He specified that these students must be 16 years of age ot· over and must carry at least three points.

From these applications we take those who show ability to do things_:_ that is , those whose grades are good, and those whose need is greate r than the rest. These have preference over the other s," Mr. Zulauf further di sclosed.

H e added that N. Y. A. students must work two periods a day, and for thi s they will receive $6.00 a month.

"The two periods in which they work are not included in their eighthour day program. In other words, they must have a ten-period program," he explained.

"One set-back thi s year is that we r eceive only 75 % a s much money a s we did last year and the refore we cannot place a s ri1any students. Appropriation Drops

"I want to warn the N. Y. A. students that th ey must notify me when they get N. Y. A. work by bringing me the signature of the teacher for whom they are wot·king and the s ignature of th eir homeroom adviser who arranges their schedule of work. If they fail to do this , they will not get their pay," concluded Mt·. Zulauf, as he set to work on the stack of remaining applications in the N. Y. A. office, located in Room 10D, where he can be found regularly the ninth hour.

Flying Course at Y. W. Intrigues 62 Hay Girls

The s mall girl who worries about not being tall enough to be accepted for employment in the retail store course has an opening for her in the aviation field , fo1· the maxiinum weight of girls employed as air hostesses on the air transports is 110 pounds.

Sixty - two aviation- minded Hay girls signed up at th e school office to study to be transport hostesses and learn ait·plane flying in the courses, which are being taught at the Young Women's Christian Association. The girls held their fir st meeting Tuesday, October 5, at 7:30 p.m.

Employment Adviser Stresses Posture

"Because posture is so important in securing and keeping a job," says Mi ss Helen M. Beaumont, employment adviser, "it is only fitting that John Hay students should read at least one book on posture. A good one is Yonr Crl.?'riage, Madame."

She also reminds the students that on page 112 of the John Hay handbook is a list of books to be read.

Ledger Regrets Omitted Nam'es The Ledger wishes to apologize to

the three Student Council cabinet officers whose names were omitted from the list given in the September 24 Ledger. Those three are Margaret Mullen, director of finance; J ohn Cimich, director of athletics; and Geraldine Raddatz, secretary of Student Council.

Familiar Names Flourish Abundantly Among Annexites

Not wishing to accept privileges because of famou s brother or s ister's merits, Annex students are a lready planning to be remembered in the annal s of John Hay.

Miss Frances Schildhouse, new secretary of Mr. Louis Welton, ass is tant principal, has a staunch admirer in cousin, Leo Schildhouse, Room 321. His main obj ection to the Annex is having to come over to John Hay during the lunch hour. He hopes to be a member of the track team and a reporter on the John Hay Ledger.

Dorothy Jtircisek, Room 322, will not be as unobtrusive as brother Anthony. She is a corridor guard at present and when she comes across the way, will be the noise of every football game-as cheerleader.

Agatha Lukpetris, Room 120, had two ideal sisters to look up to: Barbara, former Student Council member and Isabel, former Lovejoy member. He r interest lies in being th e "best of retail store clerks."

According to the director of servi ce, th is :';emester's outcome is favorable in co mparison with the previous one, because less time was ava il able for training.

Solemn Ceremony Marks Memorial Presentation Council Entertains New Vice Presidents

The solemn ceremony which marked the presentation of the late Mr. Earl Keevan's memorial to John Hay was an assembly not soon to be forgotten.

"Calm a s the Night," by Carl Bohn as sung by Mrs. Frank Grant, seemed to spread a hush over the audienc<'. The sympathetic si lence of understanding deepened as Mr. William Moore told the students in simple narrative what Mr. Keevan had meant to hi s students and friend s.

Upon receipt of the picture presented by Student City Manager Irene Lapham to Anne Vorobel, president of Mr. Keevan's former home room, 214, Anne said t hat the officers of the home room would try to pass on to succeeding officers the history of the memorial which was to adorn the walls of their room.

Mr. Moore's speech follows: "Earl Keecan - an associate- a

Are You a Conscientious Voter?

W ITH th e primai: ies duly disposed of , the at

t e nti o n of the multitude of voters is turned

toward e lection day.

Many a consc ie ntious voter who voted at the

p rima ri es will again be at the poll s in an honest

e ndeavor to se lect, what h e believes , a man able

to fill the o ffi ce open to him.

As always, there will be that group who did

n ot appe ar at the primaries but will at the elec

tion strive to c h oose a man of whom they know

littl e o r n othing.

The students of John Hay are for this reason

urge d to study t h e ir candidates when voting in

school e lection s and , not to choose rashly or be

cause of prejudice or favoritism. There is no

greater harm exis t ent than that of putting a per

son in power who does not know how to use that

power advantageously and within certain restric

Students Try Out for Senior Play "Behind the Scenes"

All the. would-be Clark Gables and Robert Taylors in the school have tri ed ou t fo r the Senior Play. Last week when Miss Gaines held t ryo uts , these aspiring young dramatist s flocked fo r t h, a ll in t he hopes of getting into this, John Hay's biggest and most important play.

Especially a fter r eading ove r portions of t he play, (which, you will remember, we told you was a i·omantic comedy ) did the boys pecome particularly enthusiastic. Because t here is some fine r omancing going on between the boy and girl in this play. All the Beau Brummels around he re seem to think tha t they're just cut out for a part like that.

The girls !)ave been trying out for the play this week, too, and from all appearances- although the cast is no t yet definite ly selected- it should be a r eally fin e group of people who will finally participate in the Senior Play.

Swing It John Hay was well represented at the Trianon last

week when Benny Goodman was appearing there. Almost all the "cats" (swing fans, to you) in the school showed up there that night and there are quite a number of them in the school.

J oe Salerno, who leads the J ohn H ay Jazz Band, was t here w-ith ]Jenc-il and 1Jad a.n d got the autog1·a.7Jhs of B enjamin himself, (tnd Gene Krupa, that 1·.emaTk a!Jly to?··rid &rummer boy. Maybe J oe ·go t some' ideas j"rom Goodntan , too.

Which reminds me: ·Those boys playing in the John Hay Jazz Band deserve a lot of credit fo r the fine work they've done in such a short time. Of course, if they would really get in the groove , that is, r eally give out, or what you call "swing it" a. little more, instead of trying to pull that Gene Beecher business, we can't help feeling that the boys would then have a really elegant outfit. That is, if you care anything about the .way we feel.

Hy Dick Veres 1 Football fans are now specu lating as to who will win the J Senate Championship under the new structural setup.

John Hay was a member of the recently dissolved ~ G. C. C. The Parochial schools, Cathedral Latin, Holy Name, Benedictine, and St. Ignatius, competed in their own small league.

At the close of la st season, plans were laid for the fo rmation of a newe r senate. The teams we re diYid ed into East s ide a nd West s id e groups. John Marshall, Holy Name, Rhodes,

Betty H ebusen and Norma Schn E' iderman; and from the Girl Gym Leaders, Anne Liss, president, and Leona Cassidy, secretary.

The meetings w hi ch are held every other Wednesday alte rnating with the teachers' meetings, con!"ist la r gely of di scussion. Each group represented will have half of a meeting to E' xpla in i t$ flims, pmjects, and di fficulti es.

A>< Mr. William L. Moore s tated, "It is fl co-operative enterprise on the part of students and faculty to give gu id anc~· to everybody concerned and interested in John Hay and a lso to solvP it.R problems."

John Hay Boy Wins Praise "Boys from Other Schools

Are Not as Neat as Hay's," Says Adviser "The other day a group of boys

came to me for jobs," says Miss H elen M. Beaumont, employment adviser, "and you could tell immediately that they weren't from John Hay.

Their hair wasn't combed as carefully as it could have been, their ties were slightly awry, t heir collars we re open, and their nails were filthy."

Miss Beaumont beams as she tells of a J ohn Hay boy who came to apply for a job. She describes him as perfe ctly immaculate . His clothes were clean and pressed neatly, his eye glasses were sparkling and as he filled out hi s application , she noted hi s well-scrubbed hands and nail s.

He fi lled the bill admirably, and she told him so. Then he explai ned that he had learned the value of neatness by taking t he Retail Store course.

" I wish all t he boys would take this boy as an example and realize the value of a n immaculate ;o~pnearance , " Miss Beaumont concluded.

A Bicycle Answers Little Lad's Prayer

Have you a "24" frame bicycle in good conditi on that you would care to sell ? Then see Mr. Raymond E. R a nsford.

It seems that Philip Liston who will be eight in January has whispered into Daddy's ear that he'd like a bicycle very much and so Mr. Ransford, like t he good Papa he is, asked t o have an advertisement inserted in the John Hay Ledger in search of one. Perhaps you still have t he bicycle that little brother tucked away last year? Look for it in your attic tonig ht.

Have you ever wondered who took most of t he fine pictures that appear week ly in your Ledg·er?-W ell , Don Danhauser, it's your turn to take a bow!

Being an ace cameraman for the John Hay paper is not onlY' a duty to this lad from 218 but a plea sure a s well. The Kodak he uses is a borr owed one belonging to James H ussey of Room 42. It has a fast shuttel' lense (F 6.3) and takes action pictures in 1/200 of a second.

Surpri s in g as it may seem, a thletes fuss more over their appearance before being snapped than pretty g irls do. Invariably, t hey want to comb and slick back th eir hair, even going to the extent of borrowi ng parts of each other 's uniforms to complete a perfect outfit.

Some of those who are approached and a sked to pose are most reluctant, not beli eving that the Ledger reall y wants thei1' picture. Or else fear ing ing t hat it is some hoax of a practica l joker , they walk away leaving pOOl' Don to chase them and explain that he is sincere and that i t truly is for the Ledger.

Don's hobby outside of school is a lso photography and he spends most of hi s spare time tak ing candid camera shots. Following t he trend of t he rest of the boys, he's fond of pretty g irl s fi nd has acquired quite a collec -

ti on of fema le pul ch ritude by snap ping un suspecting models.

Confidentially, Don says that the boys who are desirous of obta ining p ictures of their uncoope rative "girl friends" appeal to him fo r assistance, and thi s leads him to think . tha t eventuall y he may realize his ambition, to commercialize on hi s photography.

Getting back to a more serious a ngle, this month's bouquet of orchids goes to Mr. Karl 0. Suesseng uth who has been helping of late w ith the photographic work on the Ledger. The spl endid picture of the Keevan memoria l which appeared on the front page of a recent Ledger

Dramatics being definitely in t he vogue with the anival of winter, Miss Margaret Downing, head librarian with this thought foremost in mi~d selected Maxwell Anderson's "High Tor" as the current play of the season. The play, written in the same verse form as the playwright's stage success "\Vinterset," is based mainly on the study of character development a s affected by economic demands at present. A magnifice nt headla nd bearing- the old Celtic name of "High Tor" supplies the background for this whimsical story.

Baroness Shidzue Ishimoto's "Ea st Way, \Vest Way ," is the ideal story for those whose li terary interest li es

in the autobiographical department. i The book contains a viv id de~c ript i on of the simple li fe led by .Japanese 1

girls, authentic in every detail from childhood to marriage. The r eader is presented with. a clearer understanding of Japan , a country vastly different in a spect from the usual conception of it.

For a hil a ri ous, s ide-splitting, button-popping no,·el, Miss Down ing select s ''Excuse It , P lease!" by Corneli a Ot is Skinner. The story in r eality co mpri ses a series of gay littl e sketches, dealin g with a " number of poor m ortal s" in compromis ing s ituations.

The ~:>ocial season al so dema nd s its share of the spotlight and "The New E t iquette" by Margery ·wil so n, will undoubtedly prove invaluable to those planning a whirl in the socia l activities . The book is not merely a guide to etiquet te, but it als o serves a s a key to the problem of how to live smartly. co rrec t]~· . a nd a ssuredly amid :·,t th e ever cha nging policies of the social world.

System Reinstated; Passes Easily Secured; · Keeps Students Out of Trouble

Because so many students have abused the privilege of freedom, the exit permit system has been rein

stated. Mr. William L. Moore explained

that "Going back to the permit system does not in any way inconvenience any pupil who wants to do the right thing. Every pupil has a definite place, a study hall or a classroom, to r eport to each period of! the day · and those with short programs ca~ 'always secure exit pennits.

"The permit is des igned wholly for th e protection of those students whose will-power is so weak that ~hey cannot conform with school a ssignments or school requirements ."

Anyone wishing to go home for lunch. must g et an exit permit ~ro~

1 Mr. Louis E. Welton, a ssistant prmc:pal. In order to get Mr. Welton s fin al approval , pupil s are requested to bring their parents to school, in accord wi t h a long-established rule.

A Student Council member at the information desk in the foyer will be in charge of seeing that all who

\

leave the building have properly s igneel permits.

Safety Drive Continues This Term Committee N o w Student

Project; Pupils' Ideas Welcomed

"Of course the safety work in John Hay will continue," declared Mr. Phillip H. Kaufmann , supervisor of the Safety campaign, now working in the Annex.

"With the h elp of Rosalyn Lightman, my assistant, we hope to make this a student project with new ideas. We feel students will be more interested in it thi s way," h e continued. Not Connected With Council

The Safety Council has no direct affiliation with the Student Council thi s year except to have Council members pass out the bulletins on safety.

"We will try to remind students of the necess ity of safety in play, in the home, in industry, and on highways by means of ha ll signs, posters, broadcasts, bulletins , and safety hints in the Ledger," Mr. Kaufmann explained.

H e said that reminders of fundamental rules will be given from a new I angle, since the principles of safety seldom change. Ideas Welcomed

Dorothy Fuldheim, Pacifist Extraordinary, Speaks Here Soon By Grace Rubin

In an interview last Sunday, Mrs. Milton H. Fuldheim, world traveler, pacifist and popular lecturer, briefly touched upon the topics that she will discuss in an address to the· Student body on Nevember 9. Her personal experiences and her opinions of the ex is ting conditions in Europe will provide the material for her talk.

Mrs. Fuldheim, better known ·a s Dorothy Fuldheim, has returned recently from abroad. Among the countries she visited were Spain, Czecho>;lovakia, Roumania, England and France. Although her plans also included a visit to Germany, she was prevented by the government from entering the country.

She stated that war preparations are much in evidence over there, and cited as an example the situation in Paris. In advertising apartments for rent, gas and bomb-proof basements are offered as an added inducement, just as frigidaires are often featured in order to secure tenants he r e in the United States. "Signs pointing out safety cellars in case of a gas raid are everywhere," she commented.

"In England," she said with a shake of her head, "there is a great deal of talk about the "death ray" which can · destroy any machinery within forty miles. ':, ' ' l '·, --r· . ', d

Blue-eyed, auburned-haired Mrs. Fuldheim is a Cleveland Heights resident and a graduate of Wiscon sin Univer sity. Originally she taught school in Milwaukee, later becoming an actress playing in Chicago and Canadian theatres. When a play in which she was cas t was forced to close· because 9f its anti-war theme, her growing· dis like of war was confirm ed and she became a staunch pacifist.

She then decided to drop her other work, turning to the medium of speaking, wher e in a remarkably short time she reached success and wide popularity. To date she .ha s given 3000 talks in many parts of the world and 750 in Cleveland alone.

Her glowing personality is revealed in her lectures as she expresses herself in living, vivid pictures. In a straight-forward and power-driven manner, she not only succeeds in her purpose of denouncing war but also in imbuing the· audience with her enthusiasm.

In conclusion Mrs. Fuldheim confided that she didn't like to visit many high schools because of the difficult audience she had to contend with. "But," she added, "I do like to come to John Hay, where I am so warmly welcomed and so very well received by the students."

"The reason for this," said Miss Kunz, "is that the Commercial groups are not fully organized until the second half of the term and the smaller groups find it difficult to finance the making of their composites until their treasury is better established. Therefore it seems only fair and advisable to insert the group pictures in the June Memory Books only." Two Books a Year Preferred

The idea of having one Memory Book a year was presented to the class, but was un animous ly di sapproved. The Memory Book committee is accepti ng the fact that the class would rather have the abbreviated book and the plans are now well under way. It is beli eved that it is poss ible to reprint the faculty pictures I which appeared in last June's book, I however.

The committee consists of Shirley Feldstein, 117; Marie Kamen sky, 205; Julia Klin e, 310A; Angelina Manzo, 30!.J; Jeannette Marhas in, 215; and Mary Zabski, 325, chairman. Photograph Committee Helps

The photograph committee consisting of Josephin e Schuster, 303; Norma Casey, 115; and Lucille Hercsik , 116; are cooperating with the Memory Book l'ommittee by taking cai·e of the arrangem ents for the compos ites.

As heretof ore, the S. J. W ebb Stuclio will make the composites for the Memory Books. Members of t he class who have their pictures taken ther e and presen t their· member ship card will have their pictures in the Memory Book without an additional charge.

Hallowe'en Superstitions, Bogeys, Hand .. Me .. Downs from Grandma's

Corridor Guards Elect Vice President

By Elsie Krojco

A night when all supernatural influenc es prevail, when ghosts in that "tattle-tale" gray float alon g in t he air, when nothing is impossible, such a night is All Hallow Even, commonly called Hallowe'en.

During this eventful night spi rit ;o; of the long-deceased wander in company with witches, dev il s, and a ll

The newly-elected vice pres ident .of things unearthly. It is not unu l'ua l the Corridor Guard organization is to find the spirits of li ve individual s Kenneth Smith. The election took joining in a merry escapade. place at the last meeting, which was Many of ou1· modern customs and held on Tuesday, October 12, in the superstitions are hang-overs from Annex auditorium. the bustle and bowler hat days. Since

The outlining of the social, mem- \ one of the most popular superstitions bership, clean-up, and attendance was the belief that all children born committees were othe r matters of imon thi s Eve automatically acquired the portance that were taken up at this power to converse with these supermeeting. The pin pledge was also given. This pledge serves as a sort Teachers' Picnic Is Chagrin of initiation when the whole guard organization meets, at the beginning of th e new term, to proclaim their loyalty to their job.

Hay Student, Bank Winner Kathryn ·French, assistant director

of recreation, had the good fortune to have her name drawn on Bank Night at a local theater. The prize money amounted to $115.00.

Chagrined were the t eachers at the picnic that was to be held at Chagl'in Reservation on Tuesday, October 12, chagrined was the co mmittee because they could not, after many attempts, light a fire in the rain (they say the rain was too wet for a fire), and the few brave teachers who did show up were also chagrined because there was not a picnic at North Chagrin Reservation.

natural , airy creatures of the beyond, any bom on Octobe r 31 probably chose a s thei1· life 's calling the p1·ofess ion of witch cmft so commonly prac ticed in those days. Families built large fi1·es, a nd . then eac h membe r threw into it a white ~ tone marked with hi s nam e. If, during t he course of the night the sto ne di sappeared, th e owner was destined to di e within the year. N uts thrown into t he fire had to e ithe r crack o r burn. In the former case , the owner's prospe rity was indicated; but in the latter he was doom ed to poverty.

As ide from being a night of divination, Hallowe 'en was also t he bes t time of the year to di scover just what sort of wife or husba nd one was apt to be blessed ( ?) with. The maiden who hung a wet garment in front of the fire was certain to glimpse a picture of her future spouse sometime during the night (that is if she s tayed up long enough). Or a certain verse sa id backwards was the ideal mean ~ to b1•ing the beau down the chimney.

Today, although our superstitions are not as ridiculous as those of the past, we still are firm believers in haunted houses, unearthly images appearing on graveyard stones, and the proverbial black cat and ladder.

Althoug h outplaying a big Glen-· vi lle team for four quarters, a fig·hting Hay team had to settle for a scoreless tie.

The playing was continually done in t he Tar-Blooders ' te l'l'ito ry, with the Hallmen tht·eatening several times. Hay s tarted out in fol:midable s tyle, tearing off t hree firs t downs in a row, and ripping the Glen ville line to shreds in the firs t quat·te r , on a seri es of line sma shes . Habbys haw Ga ins

Glenville 's firs t first down came mid- way in t he second canto on smashes at the Green a nd Gold line by the two Luxenburg boys. In t he latte r moments of the fir st half, BesJ.:id a nd Ha bbyshaw, a lte mating, blasted the Glenville line for three first downs, t hen Mat Hahbys haw snake-hipped hi s way to t he Tar-Biooder s ' 32 befor e being knocked out of bounds by three Glenville backs.

Hay's passing was the only f eatur·e . of the third quarter, Zimlich throw-

Harold Kester, Hay's builder of mas te r wrestling teams, is now undertaking· the ta sk of building a freshman team.

He is asking that t enth graders of all weights r eport to him for tryouts. Thi s is giving t enth graders an excellent opportunity to prep for the school t eam.

If enough boys turn out, a schedule will be arranged and meets held.

No actual wres tling will be undert aken until all boys are in tip-top s hape. More boys are out this year than have ever before reported, but a s no positions are certain, there is s till plenty of chance for newcomers to join the wrestling ranks.

Complaint DepartmenL One of two complaints circulating

among· t he students the past week is: Why doew 't t he band play so that they can be hea rd at th e f ootball games? The students claim that the opposing school's band can be heard much more clearly than our own band.

And then they'd like to know wha.t happen ed to the football rallies? Several of the students are led to l:)elieve that sin ce the school has ma de such a success of the act ivities ticket, the authorities do not care much ahout giving any more rallies . I do nc:>t believe that the office had any such thing in mind, but I do believe that the student body would f eel a lot better if a rally were given every now and then.

A closer look di sclosed that th e "bear" wa s an ari stocratic, black chow dog-drinking milk out of a pint bottl e.

H ow he got the milk bottle and opened it will have to r emain a mystery. Maybe he wa s trying to drink all th e milk he could get hold of bef ore the milk s trike occurred.
