  • A Summary of One Hundred Years of Withrow History 1920 in September 1919 the New East High School Opened to Students in Grades Nine Through 12
    A Summary of One Hundred Years of Withrow History 1920 In September 1919 the new East High School opened to students in grades nine through 12. There were no clocks in the Tower, no lockers in the halls and although the cafeteria was up and running, students had to bring their own knives and forks. The football stadium was incomplete and there was no football field so the fledgling Tigers had to play all their games away. Mr. Edmund D. Lyon, who had been principal at both Woodward and Hughes High Schools, was named principal of the new East High. Mr. Lyon remained as principal until his retirement in 1933. 1921 Students at East High publish and print a bi-weekly student newspaper, The Tower News. It is the only public high school newspaper in the City of Cincinnati. Containing articles about athletics, school clubs and activities, and stories and poems written by students, the paper also had an agricultural report. Agricultural subjects were part of the East High curriculum at that time. The large Wulsin estate, which adjoined East High on the west, was classified as a working farm up until its sale in 1967 and the construction of the Regency high rise and townhouses. 1922 The completed football stadium was opened for the East High vs Hughes High game in October 1921. 8,000 people attended the game, the largest high school attendance ever in Cincinnati. The stadium was built to hold approximately 10,000 so some seats were still available. The rivalry with Hughes , which many East High students would have attended but for the creation of East High, was paramount.

  • The 1989 Annual Report of the Cincinnati Historical Society
    32 Queen City Heritage 1989 Annual Report of the Cincinnati Historical Society Presidents' Reports At the close of my final year as president of the Society, it seems appropriate to review very briefly what has been accomplished in the time. In 1974 when I became president of the Cincinnati Historical Society membership stood at 1,543 and the annual budget was $154,000. During my fourteen year tenure we have grown at a lively but prudent pace. The membership now stands at close to 4,000 including a heartening increase in business members and the annual budget exceeds $850,000 with a substantially increased endowment. Our staff has doubled to thirty-nine very capable persons. Extensive and valuable additions to our superb collections have outgrown the capacity of our present quarters. We continue to grow in patronage of the library and usefulness to the community. We have attained a solid visible presence in the region. Most satisfying is the prospect of the Society's new museum. It began as a tenuous, hopeful wish in 1975, went through a long series of discussions, planning, and fortunate circumstances and is now on the very threshold of reality. The move to Union Terminal will provide not only ample space and facilities for an enlarged and greatly enhanced library, with plenty of room to grow, but also a world-class history museum that will tell the important, fascinating story of the Cincinnati area in a wonderfully exciting, visual way. This remarkable progress is due to the cooperative effort of a legion of devoted people.
