Dedication
To the boys ot our class of 1945 who go forth to fight for the only way of life they have ever known, to preserve and protect the things that to them mean home, we dedicate this book. We pray that God will return them to us; for they are the living symbols of the spirit of these words by Dr. Willis Sutton: "The measure of a man is his in terest in, his willingness to work for, to fight for, and even to die for a future which he shall never see."
The Board of Education
W. J. RICHARDSON L. M. KRUMM CHARLES D. WILLIARD WM. HARRINGTON WALKER MAYNARD M. DONALDSON President
Over a period of years the Board of Education has been alert to the educational needs of a growing community. In accordance with plans worked out with Mr. Fawcett, the board asked the people to approve a bond issue in the election of November, 1944. The citizens came through with a resounding vote of confidence. Plans for an improved and expanded school system now await only the release of essential building materials. Four major changes will be made in the school plant. These include the construction of a new elementary building at Maryland Avenue and Cassingham Road, small additions to the Cassingham school, extensive remodel ing at the Main-Montrose building, and a second story addition over the cafeteria and shop at the high school. Members of the teaching staff look forward to opportunities for greater service in a vastly improved school setting.
Six NOVICE G. FAWCETT, B. A., M. A. Superintendent of Bexley Schools
Mr. Fawcett is a graduate of Kenyon and Ohio State and is working on his Ph. D. He is proudest of heading a city school system before he was thirty. He likes golf, reading, and table tennis and is peeved by lack of punctuality in people. During the past year his chief interest has been in planning with architects and fac ulty committees the new building program for the Bexley schools. At the Miami Workshop, Mr. Fawcett has assisted in the development of a pro gram for public school education in Ohio. He has also served as chairman of the Resolutions Committee for the Central Ohio Teachers' Association and as chairman of a professional relations committee of the Ohio Superintendents' Association.

Lie is often heard saying, "I have the following announcements to make this morning."

National Honor Society With the creation of enthusiasm for scholarship, the stimulation of the desire for service, the promotion of worthy leadership, and the encouragement of character development as its aims, the National Honor Society of Bexley High School has become the ultimate goal of all students. There is no honor greater than membership in this organization. The Society represents the basic objects on which high schools are founded, and while other organizations recognize specific skills or talents, this organization recognizes all factors which make for well rounded school activity. Members are selected from the upper third of the class in scholarship, and only fifteen per cent of the seniors and five per cent of the juniors can be chosen. The number selected as juniors is deducted from those chosen as seniors. This year twelve seniors and seven juniors who have met the four requirements for membership were initiated by the six seniors who were chosen last year as juniors. Officers for the year 1944-45 included: President Beverly Dring Vice-president Weldon Kefauver Secretary Nancy Moore Treasurer Barbara Hutchinson Sergeant-at-Arms Phyllis Zeiher Forty-one w\ > Buck row, left to right: Jerry Nangle, Bill Broun, Phyllis Zeiher, Beverly Dring, Weldon Kefauver, Everett Mattlin. Front row: Mary Anne Morgan, Nancianne Moore, Beatrice Luckoff, Miriam Lieverman. Truth, loyalty, enlightenment, opportunity, initiative, honor, leadership, and friendship—these are the standards of Quill and Scroll, International Honorary Society for high school journalists. This year ten members of the 1945 Torch and Bexleo staffs were initiated into the society by members of the 1944 Bexley chapter. Eligibility for this honor depends on class standing, which must be in the upper third of the class, scholarship, and contribution to journalism through the high school publications in literary, business, or art work. Candidates are recommended to national headquarters by Miss Ruth Geist, literary adviser of the Torch, and Ralph I Iowell, business adviser of the Torch and Bexleo adviser. The recommendations must be approved by the executive secretary. Initiated at the candlelighting ceremony on March 16 were these seniors: Phyllis Zeiher, Beatrice Luckoff, Beverly Dring, Nancy Moore, Weldon Kefauver, Miriam Lieverman, Jerry Nangle, Mary Anne Morgan, and Bill Brown.

This year, as last, the Council has sponsored the war stamp booth. It also took charge of the "Open House" on May 22. Because of the Student Council many improvements have been effected in the appearance of the school and in the discipline and spirit of the students. Through an extensive study of various student councils in other schools, the Council has sought always for self-improvement. Due to the Constitutional provision for student proposals and suggestions, the Council has shown an accurate representa tion of student interests. The Student Council consists of two bodies—the House of Representatives, with one representative from each homeroom, and the Senate, with senators chosen by the entire school, along with the officers of each class.

THE BEXLEY HIGH lotck Last minute assignments, galleys to be read, deadlines, Sunday afternoon make-up collaborations, lost copy, and too busy typists: here is a picture of the Torch which is known only to the staff. This publication has provided for the student body a record of school activities as complete and correct as possible. Phyllis Zeiher, editor, has published a paper which seems to meet the require ments of two essential tests, popularity and style. The advertising staff provided the Torch with the much needed funds. With their help, the staff was able to publish one six-page edition.

Here words, pictures, and drawings are woven together in the pattern of Bexley. Here you may see yourselves, your classmates, your teachers, all as a unit, as Bexley. For those who will soon be far from home, serving in the armed forces, we would, have it stand for a big part of home. We hope that each person, especially the seniors, will keep this book and turn to it often remembering with happiness his high school days. We have enjoyed all our work on the Bexleo and we are grateful for the oppor tunity to work on it.

Bill Brown took charge until his entrance to Ohio State University at the end of the first semester; Scott Knisley took his place during the second semester. The members of the club distributed attractive football programs at all home games. A committee led by Bob Hays completed an honor roll, to be placed in the high school hall, in memory of all Bexley boys in the armed forces. The Hi-Y basketball team proved themselves champions by winning first place in the city Fli-Y league.

Girl Reserve Club Members of the Girl Reserves began the year with a "Little Girl Party'' for the purpose of introducing the organization to the new students of the school. The membership for 1944-45 reached 142, after the new members were initiated at the recognition service and tea. The club was responsible for the Morning Watch Services at Easter time in cooperation with the music department. The G. R. purpose, "To find and give the best," was carried out during the year by numerous service projects and Red Cross activities. Slippers for soldiers, and valentines for the children at Nightingale Cottage were among the projects for the regular service meetings. The Girl Reserves also sponsored dances including the annual "Sweetheart Dance" with the Hi-Y. By attending service meetings and completing their own projects, eighteen mem bers received their G. R. ring certificates from headquarters. Seniors were honored at the annual farewell party which brought to a close activities for the year. An additional honor was brought to the Bexley Girl Reserves when President Ann Tarrier was elected city-wide G. R. president.

The mixed chorus of approximately 100 members under the direction of Miss Ruth Eberhart, vocal music supervisor, began activities for the year 1944-'45 by presenting the Thanksgiving chapel program and by providing music for the Christ mas pageant, "Nativity." In the spring the group furnished music for the Easter Sun rise Services, the Easter chapel service, and the Parent-Teachers' Association program for Dr. Willis Sutton, lecturer. Members of the chorus along with choirs from all over Columbus participated in the choir festival at Capital University April 14 and the National Music Festival May 9 held in the Bexley High School. The chorus ended the season by singing several numbers at the Baccalaureate Service, June 3.

It has presented interesting and varied programs at each meeting, with members of the club taking part in plays and pantomimes.

Girls' Athletic Club The Girls' Athletic Club, organized for the purpose of promoting fellowship and stimulating interest in girls' ath letics, has, in the past year, accomplished this aim by i #»» sponsoring tournaments in hockey, basketball, badminton, and track. The GAC has participated in several playdays "X2fr':- with other schools. Bexley sponsored a hockey playday for Arlington, Grandview, University School, and Columbus School for Girls on her own field. In this way inter-school relations are strengthened and a friendly rivalry develops. Offering points for participation in intramural activities, the club awards a Bexley "B" to any girl who earns 500 points in a varietv of sports.

Each year, in every Spanish class, with the advice of Miss Selma Hamman, Spanish teacher, students form a club which meets once a month during the regular class period. The clubs present programs which are both educational and entertaining. Spanish plays, radio programs, talks, and movies depict the life, the habits, the cus toms, the architecture and homes, and the history of the Spanish-speaking countries of the world. Spanish is not a school-room language—it is a language alive and necessary for a progressive nation. A member of the "circulos de espanol" by active participation in the activities of the clubs increases not only his knowledge of the Spanish language, but also his background knowledge of Spanish in the world today. The students pictured above are the officers of the various clubs, for each class operates as a separate unit with its own officers and programs.

To make more interesting and to encourage the study of French is the aim of the French club. This club constitutes an essential part of the French course. It gives to its members further instruction and knowledge pertaining to the lives, cus toms, and habits of the French people. Club meetings are held once a month. Throughout the year, various French plays, songs, games, talks, and other sources of entertainment are presented at these meetings. The outstanding contribution to the school on behalf of the club was the talk given in chapel by Don L. Demorest, professor of French at Ohio State University. He spoke on the contribution of the young people of France to the present war, and also on the French underground. Another program of merit featured a talk by Felix Smith, French speaking native of Haiti.

LATIN CLUB The Latin Club of Bexley High School has long been an important part of school activity. The Latin Club was established as a mutual meeting place for all second, third, and fourth year students for the development of common cultural interests. This year the Latin Club has sought to make the study of Latin more vivid and interesting to its members. Through its varied programs of movies, discussion, and pageants, the club has brought items of interest other than those offered in the regular curriculum to classi cal students. Highlights of the year were the annual Christmas program, depicting in Latin the birth of Christ, and the showing of movies by Ralph Trivella, supervisor'of art in the Bexley schools, showing the effects of Roman life on the nations of Europe.

Membership is open to any student who is willing to promise to study facts, principles, and causes, to respect the rights of others to express their opinions on 'Jnhxb. '/ scientific matters, and to apply scientific principles, methods, reasoning, and logic. The aims of the group, as stated in the constitution, are: "to increase our knowledge of science; to learn to perfect our skills in science; to give service in our com munity and nation; to understand the importance of science in our lives; to help carry out the program of Science Clubs of America.'' Through the affiliation with Science Clubs of America, the Bexley club receives ideas for meetings, topics for discussion, samples for experimentation, and a weekly scientific magazine. Thus the members are actively increasing their scientific knowledge. President Kathryn Davenport Vice-president Jack Thornbury Secretary John Jones Treasurer John Hausman Faculty Adviser Ross B.

ART CLU Although this is the first year in the existence of the Art Club, already it has widely influenced the school. The idea of forming an Art Club in Bexley Fligh School was first conceived by Ralph Trivella, the new Fine Arts Super visor for the Bexley Schools. After the constitution was adopted and a specific aim established, officers were elected and membership was opened to any Art student. The Club's monthly sessions in the Art room consist of meetings, both business and entertainment. This year was highlighted by an address by Philip R. Adams, director of the Columbus Gallery of Fine Arts, on "Modern Art." A sterling silver pin of a pallet and brush design and bearing a blue crest was designed and chosen by the club as their official membership badge. A special feature of the club has been the workshop meetings. These meetings provide students with an opportunity to do extra and more extensive work in Art than is permitted by the time given to regular classroom work.

The purpose of the Freshman-Sophomore Book Club, to promote an interest in good books among its members, was well fulfilled during this year by the club's many and varied activities. Meetings were held on the first and third Wednesday of every month. Programs consisted of reviews and discussions of books by members of the club. A number of guest speakers reviewed books, and Mrs. Vinton McVicker, book editor of the Citizen and local author best known for The Queen Was In the Kitchen, was presented in the final program of the year. As its outstanding activity of the year, the Book Club sponsored the War Bond Auction. As a result of this auction, $26,660 was raised in bonds. The program met with the unanimous approval of the students and was rated as one of the year's best. At the close of the year attractive gold pins were ordered for those members wishing them.

Because of the graduation of most of the lettermen in all sports last spring, we did not expect much .3 from any of our teams; but they have been surprisingly good. This is a tribute to the fighting qualities and hard work of the boys on the teams. _. The football team lost the first two games and then won four league contests before bowing to the superior weight and experience of the Arlington team. Bexley took second place in the League, which was far beyond expectations. The final two games were lost to City League teams with a very fine exhibition of football. The basketball team won the championship with eight league victories out of ten starts after all the "experts" had picked Arlington to win the C.B.L. Our boys defeated four out of five of the best teams in central Ohio during the pre-League season. They will be remembered for winning the championship on fight and brains. The baseball team has lost only one game so far and has a chance yet to win the championship. It is showing the same spirit as the football and basketball teams and may surprise everyone and win the championship. At least it will have a very fine record. The track team seems to be the weakest of all the major sports, but its members are working hard and we hope to have a surprise for our followers when the C.B.L. meet occurs. The tennis team is undefeated again and has 75 straight victories over the past few years for an all-time Bexley and Central District record. It expects to win the League, District, and State Championships, and well it may. The golf team is very mediocre as usual and probably will win only half or its matches. In conclusion I would say that this year has been one of the most interesting and satisfying years in all sports. The teams have not all been champions, but they have played in such an inspired way that they have been interesting to watch and have looked like champions very often.

The '44 football team experienced four wins and five losses in their brilliant and spectacular season which placed them in second place in the Central Buckeye League. Due to the loss of Captain Herb Pollock, Bexley played a not totally successful season. The light, fast squad relied on speed and »' exceptional team work to place them as victors. The Lions opened their season playing the more experienced St. Charles Caro lines. Bexley showed great power on the offense and defense, but was unable to score. This gave St. Charles a 18-0 victory. Greenfield McClain overran the determined but overpowered Bexley eleven with a final score of 7-6. Bill O'Donnell's interception in the second quarter started Sixtv-one the Lions on the march. Tom Williard made the touchdown which gave Bexley a lead of 6-0 at the half. Williams made a touchdown and extra point for Greenfield at the beginning of the second half, giving them a lead which they held throughout the game. Bexley's first C. B. L. game was played on Westerville's gridiron. Following two defeats, Herb Pollock led the newly experienced team to its first victory of the season. The greatly improved Lion team chalked up three touchdowns, winning 19-6 The Pollock-Williard combination scored three touchdowns against the powerful Grandview team. Scott Knisley made two conversions, sealing the score at 20-0. Al though the Bexley line was greatly outweighed by the Grandview line, it proved superior throughout. All in all the Lions gave an unparalleled exhibition of deter mined team work. Kenny Kauffman led the Lions to a spectacular victory over Delaware Willis, scoring 19 points for Bexley. A pass from Pollock to Shriner scored another touch down in the last quarter, finishing the game 25-13. The Lions fought valiantly against the heavier and more experienced Upper Arlington team, but the absence of Captain Herb Pollock proved fatal to the Blue and White. Bill O'Donnell went over for a touchdown in the first quarter, and a pass from Lewis to Shriner was successful for a touchdown in the last quarter. The game finished with the Bears having scored 41 points to the Lions' 12 points. Bouncing back from their defeat at Arlington, Bexley outplayed Academy be fore a capacity homecoming crowd. A pass from Williard to Shriner over the goal gave the Lions their first touchdown. Then a touchdown by Milt Taylor of Academy tied the score 6-6. In the fourth period Kauffman made a touchdown and extra point, gaining a 13-6 victory for the Lions. The impressive team work of the Lions reaped a touchdown in the first play of the East game. The touchdown by Bill O'Donnell was followed by a sensational comeback with the Tigers completing a pass for a touchdown to tie the score 6-6. The Lions were unable to check the aerial offensive that scored 12 additional points for East, but tried desperately to overcome the Tigers' lead. In the final moments of the game Tom Williard went over for a touchdown, ending the game 18-12. The final game of the season was played with North on the Bexley gridiron. Due to a flurry of bad breaks and the sheer power of the North team, Bexley lost 6-27. During the first half North marked up 14 points, following fumbles by the Lions. Bexley began the second half with a passing offensive lead by Lewis, Shriner, Williard, and Knisley, netting 95 yards and a touchdown.

Though the Lions were defeated by Central in the State Class A Tournament, they ranked as one of the best teams in central Ohio with an overall record of 14 wins against four losses. In the pre-league play Bexley defeated Findlay, Marion Flarding, Mt. Vernon, and East, but they were set back by North. Bexley opened the CBL play by beating Grandview 39-21, Academy 42-19, and overwhelming their arch rivals Arlington by a 33-30 count. They went on to finish the first round undefeated, with victories over Delaware and Westerville. Midway in the Delaware game, Bexley's ace, Flerb Pollock, left for the navy. In the second round the Lions cinched at least a tie for first by defeating Grandview and Academy. A victory in either of the remaining three games would have won an undisputed title. At this point Bexley slumped, as they lost 20-12 to Arlington and 32-26 to Delaware. But the Lions were far from beaten. They roared back against Westerville to win to the tune of 50-25. In the tournaments Bexley won from South before succumbing to Central 40-36. The line-up was Capt. Tom Williard and Pinky Shriner at guards, Tom Chappell, the leading scorer, at center, and Herb Pollock and Jack Lewis at forwards with Scott Knisley and Tom Reeb pinch-hitting for sailor Pollock. Adequate reserve strength was furnished by Bud Susil, Leonard Schiff, and Co-Captains elect Bob Zimmerman and Jim Gramlich. On the mythical all-CBL team, Tom Williard was elected captain.
