March 2, 1949 Mr. Ralph E. Lin Weber 1916 Cone Street Toledo 6, Ohio Dear Mr. Lin Weber:
The assembling of detailed information on former students over a long period of time is a considerable undertaking. This is par ticularly true in an undertaking such as the present one, wherein you present data on graduating classes over a period of eighty years.
I know personally of the extreme care you have exercised, and the extent to which you have gone in order to obtain accurate in formation. It has been a heavy task and it will be appreciated by former students who are fortunate enough to possess a copy of your book. It is a reference work that will bring back fond memories to "old grads."
I compliment you on the thorough job you have done so unselfishly for the enjoy ment of others.

Yours very truly, Cordially yours, Page 6 GRADUATION CLASSES OF THE OHIO SCHOOL FOR THE DEAF Page 7 BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH Ralph Elliott LinWeber, whose likeness is reproduced for this sketch, is of German and English extraction. The place of his birth is in Rossford, Ohio, a southwestern suburb of Toledo, in the year 1908, on March 6th. An oddity noted is that Ralph and his mother were born in the same farm house on 138 Glenwood Road which house was built by his grandfather in 1875. Jotted down here are a few facts of interest pertaining to the family history. Harvey M. LinWeber is the name of his father who migrated to Toledo from Pennsylvania around the turn of the century The rest of the paternal relatives, presumably remained in their native State. It is different on his mother's side whose forebears were pioneer settlers of Wood County. The grandparents, Elliott Martin Warner and his wife (Margaret Ellen Brown), owned a fruit farm at the nearby site of Rossford, even own ing the site of the present stately Rossford High School. Ralph can point with pardonable pride to the fact that a member of the line, Marshall Bay Brown, a cousin, was professional baseball catcher for Toledo in 1888. Things began to change in 1899 when the Edward M. Ford Plate Glass Co. built a plant and later combined with the world famous Libbey-Owens-Ford Glass Co. Houses had to be built to shelter the workers and that brought into being the little town of Rossford. The problem of Ralph's education was, at first, attended to by the Toledo Public Schools. Then it was discovered that his hearing was slightly defective, enough so, to necessitate taking, him out and to try placing him in the Ohio School for the Deaf at Columbus. The try out resulted in a better fit because he remained there from 1918 to 1928. By the time he left school, he had reached the eleventh grade. While in High School he had, at different times, been under the tutelage of James M. Steward, Lyana L. Dyer, Mary M. Frost, and John C. Winemiller. It is on record that at present his hearing residue is sufficient to carry on a close conversation,, to listen in on the radio, and, also, to use the telephone. He married Betty Jean Landis of Dutch ancestry and from Piqua, Ohio. RALPH E. LIN WEBER She is the daughter of Mrs. Raymond Landis, nee Mary Edith Armstrong, of the Class of 1918. Upon the death of Mr. Landis she remarried to Thad- EDITOR OF THE GRADUATION CLASSES OF deus Death Anderson of the Anderson Lumber Company of Franklin, Ohio. THE OHIO SCHOOL FOR DEAF At work preparing 80 years of the Graduating Classes Ralph's hobby is stamp collecting, but he later included writing base material into one volume. ball history which pastime he has pursued ever since. It was a big accom plishment to finish the compilation of a 385 page book on baseball entitled: "The Toledo Baseball Guide of the ' Mud Hens." 2000 copies of this work have been sold. The volume covers the records of 1340 names of Toledo professional baseball players from 1883 to 1943, a period of 60 years. OHIO SCHOOL FOR THE DEAF Page 9 Page 8 GRADUATION CLASSES OF THE A cherished ambition was to compile a complete record or as com plete as possible, of the rolls of the graduating classes of his Alma Mater. This meant much work since commencement exercises were started as an annual event as far back as 1869; it meant grinding work to collect, compile, and condense this bulky data. Deaf friends urged and prodded him ' to shoulder this worthy task, more so, since the School has never attempted any such work. It is a big inconvenience, and no mistake about it, for an outside searcher for information to have to go to and delve into the back files at the school for a little fact that may now be found within the covers FOREWORD of Ralph's book. Ralph rose to the situation and accepted the challenge. To this end search was started through the back files of the Ohio Chronicle in the June "The Graduation Classes of the Ohio School for the issues of each year. Graduation took place in that month and the names Deaf" is a directory of students who have graduated from in the class rolls were accordingly published. In addition, the Institution the Ohio Institution for the past 80 years. registry was checked in order to get the correct names in full.

A few of the well known are: Bert Tussing, Frank Neal, Arnold Deak, William Morehouse, Wilbur Ketcham, James Parker and Larry Cook. An effort has been made to have the manuscript finished and in the hands of the printer early. The book has to be off the press before the next Reunion which is scheduled for the summer of 1949. The merits of the book can then be judged by the many in attendance and where constructive criticism is solicited.

THE OHIO SCHOOL FOR THE DEAF OHIO SCHOOL FOR THE DEAF Page 19 Town and Washington Streets Columbus, Ohio AN HISTORICAL SKETCH Gathered briefly for this book most particularly to observe the founding of the Ohio School for the Deaf, one hundred and twenty years ago, this occasion is seized upon to give a little history. Our school was the fifth school for the Deaf in the United States. This brings to memory the Reverend James Hoge, D.D. To him more than to any other man be longs the credit for bringing about the realization of a school for the Deaf in Ohio. Too much can not be written in praise of him. In 1822 when appointed one of the commission to look after a school system for the State he became interested in education for. the Reverend Deaf, having heard about such schools in other States. James Hoge, D.D. Rev. Hoge could not rest until he saw such a school Founder of O.S.D. established in his own State. His vision of education for the Deaf has probably been realized to a fuller extent than he could ever have believed it would be. What a grati fication it would be to him could he see the Deaf of today in comparison with those he first knew. Ohio owes so much to him. It seems it was no easy task which he went about. He was obliged first ADMINISTRATION BUILDING to get approval of the Governor of the State, then to go before a committee Cornerstone Laid—1864, During the Civil War Completed—1868 appointed by the legislature and debate the good points of his plan. The bill for incorporating the Institution was passed January 30, 1827. The first Board of Trustees consisted of eight members, of which Rev. Hoge was secretary. It was decided to locate the school in Columbus, to be near the legislature and also because Columbus is conveniently situated for intercourse with every part of the State and in 1829 the legislature allowed $500.00 for the purchase of a suitable site in Columbus for the school. Again Rev. Hoge proved a "a friend in need." Three lots of about ten acres, then half a mile east from the town, were bought for three hundred dollars, a price much below true value. Rev. Hoge owned one of the lots, Peter Sells owned the second and John A. McDowell, the third. They are now worth over half a million dollars today. Just think, one hundred and twenty years ago our beautiful school grounds were farm lands devoted to crops and divided by ugly fences. These farm lands were landscaped in 1868 by a skillful landscape artist by the name of F. R. Elliott and thus he made possible the beautiful lawns, drives and walks. It was not possible to obtain enough money to erect buildings for the school at first and, wishing to lose no time, the Board of Trustees rented a small frame house at the north-west corner of Broad and High Streets, the place where stands the present Deshler-Wallick Hotel. The school at Broad and High Streets opened on October 16, 1829, with only one pupil, a boy of twelve. His name was Samuel W. Flenniken. Other pupils entered during the year and at the end of the first year there were SCHOOL BUILDING ten pupils. Today we have an average of over three hundred and fifty pupils Cornerstone Laid—1898 Completed—1899 The Institute was originally called the "Deaf and Dumb Asylum". The name being a year. Horatio N.

OHIO SCHOOL FOR THE DEAF Page 21 Page 20 GRADUATION CLASSES OF THE The first Superintendent was Horatio N. Hubbell. His superintend- ency lasted twenty-two years. In one hundred and twenty years the School has been under twelve superintendents. Our present Superintendent, Dr. Edward R. Abernathy has been Superintendent at the school since October 1, 1930, soon after the death of Supt. John W. Jones who was killed in an automobile accident when his car overturned in a ditch because of the poor ! condition of the gravel roads in those days, near Ellis, Kansas. He was enroute to a Teacher's Convention to be held at Olathe, Kansas. Dr. Abernathy first came to the Institute in 1924 as Principal of the School soon after his grad uation from the Ohio State University. It was in 1832 that money was obtained for building on the present site. The first building which was only three stories high was made to house from sixty to eighty pupils. It was ready for them in the Fall of 1834 */A* tyeankf, but it was not large enough for very long for in thirty-one years this build ing was torn down and a new and much larger one erected. This new build ing- was opened to pupils in 1868 on the same grounds. The style of the architecture of the present building is called Franco- Italian because the towers are of the form and appearance peculiar to the Italian order and the steep roofs and dormer windows are of the French style. It is one of the most beautiful brick structures in the country consider ing its size and the purpose it is used for. The school is supported by the State of Ohio but this was not the case always, not until 1854 when a law was passed extending free education to all deaf children, rich and poor alike. In the winter of 1927-1928 a bill was passed removing O. S. D. from QaUcuidet GoU&je. under the State Welfare Department and placing it under the administration of the Board of Education. This makes O. S. D. equal to any other educational school of the State. We are no longer in the class with the Penitentiary and Insane Asylum. It is no longer Ohio State School for the Deaf but becomes, with the change, Ohio School for the Deaf. The Ohio Chronicle Building is the oldest structure still standing today being erected in 1856. The Conservatory which stood on the site of the School Building was removed to its present location in 1898. It was es tablished in a WILL left by Matthew Russell in 1879. The long Industrial Building, next to the alley, was built in 1883, the Hospital Building was built in 1908 and the new Power House Plant was built in 1927 replacing the old Laundry Building, which stood on the site. Few people know that the Board of Administration Building on Oak St. behind the school grounds belongs to the school. The iron fence around the campus was transferred there from the State Capitol Grounds in 1873. NOTICE For more than half of the one hundred and twenty years speech was taught only to semi-mutes who had acquired speech before losing their hear Those who have helped to complete this voluminous work are as follows :- ing. Oral teaching to the deaf children was begun in 1891. Dr. Percival Hall, of Washington, D.
