Y Mothers Club
First In This Area

On February 2Sth, 1928 group
of mothers of boys of the East
Cleveland YMCA met in the East
Cleveland Congregational Church
and formed an auxiliary group now
known as the "Y Mothers Club"
They chose as their purpose, "To
promote the interest of mothers
and sons in the program Of the
YMCA and to help make that pro-
gram more effective by cooperative
effort" This was the first Y
Mothers Club to be formed in all
the Cleveland area.
The first pledge to come into
the Building Fund, significantly
came from the Y Mothers. 1t
was for $4,000.
Under the able leadership of
such women as Mrs. Catherine
Walker, who was president in
1929-30, the women carried on an
active program of money-making
to improve the Y building and its
furnishings for the use Of boys
of the community. The annual
Mother-Son Banquet was first held
as early as 1928, and in 1881 the
club was accepted as a member of
the Federation of Women's Clubs
Of Greater Cleveland.

There wasn't even an office and
there wasn't to be one for several
weeks. The city fathers provided
some desk space in the City Hall.
Later, space was shared with the
East Cleveland Babies Dispensary.
The babies became so numerous at
the dispensary, the Y finally had
to move to offices across from the
car barns. In 1929 the Trustees
of the A. M. McGregor Home gen.
erously made available the old
Terry house, rent free, at the COR
ner of Lee rd. and Euclid ave. In
1947 the property was purchased
and the house moved to the Lee
rd. frontage. The beautiful new
Y building now stands on the once
lush vegetable garden of the Nc
Gregor Home.
The East Cleveland Branch is
the heightened shadows of many,
many fine people. To name even a
few would take all the space in
this edition. Outstanding citizens
have served long and unselfishly
on the Board. A few of the original
men are still active. A succession

MRS. EDWARD Arm, chaplain,
is the only charter member still
active in the club.
AS war and army service for
"their boys" colored the activities
of the Y Mothers, in place Of fur
nishings they sponsored projects
for the Marines stationed at Ter
race rd. and Lee blvd. and for the
Disabled Veterans. The annual
luncheon for Football Mothers of
Shaw High was added to their
program.
In addition to Mrs. Walker the
Y Mothers have been headed by
the following presidents: Mrs.
Gordon Pickerell, Mrs. Carol
Brown, Mrs. L. NJ. Havens, Mrs.
Edward Arm (present chaplain of
the club, Mrs. C. w. Custer, Mrs.

Marie Dever came to the East
Cleveland Branch in the spring of
1850 to assist in the Partner-Mem-
bership Campaign, and worked on
a part time basis from then until
she accepted the position of Office
Secretary in September of 1852.
Marie is responsible for the
handling of the branch office-Fou-
tine and lends a hand at game
room supervision. All reservations
for "Y" groups using the building
and also reservations for outside
groups wishing to use the "Y"
House, go through her hands.
As camp banker at Centerville
for the East Cleveland group for
the past four summers, Marie has
had an active part in the boys ac-
tivities. At Centervilfe you would
find her assisting in the craft
shop also.
Her two sons, Bob and Paul,
have taken an active part in the
program offered by the East
Cleveland Branch.

.Hi-Y Program
70 Years Old

In the year 1885 the first Hi-Y-
Club that has had a continuous
history was formed in the Dickson
County High School in Chapman,
Kansas.
The movement spread rapidly
and became a national movement.
In 1892 the National Hi-Y Fellow
ship was formed by the boys work
committee of the National Council
of YMCA's.
Hi-Y is a voluntary club pro-
gram for boys in the 10th, 18th and
18th grades of High School, spon-
sored by the YMCA. It's name is
a combination of the term High
School YMCA." The 'Hi-Y move
ment is international in scope,
Christian in emphasis, interdeno-
minational in character and dem
ocratic in practice.
The Hi-Y statement of purpose
is, ITO create, maintain and ex-
tend throughout the school, home
and community high standards of
Christian character" The four
planks making up the platform of
Hi-Y program are: clean speech,
clean sportsmanship, clean scholar
ship and clean living.
A Hi-Y Club welcomes into its
membership any student who ac-
cepts its purpose and is willing
to work with others in carrying it
out.
It encourages members to band
together in definite cause calling
for high scholarship, physical
health, moral worth and unselfish
service. 1t does not ask, what
church do you attend? What is
your nationality? What is the color
of your skim"
East Cleveland YMCA has
three chapters of Hi-Y, three
Junior Hi-Y chapters and one
Cray for boys in the fifth and
sixth grades in the elementary
schools.

| of outstanding men have giver
the branch leadership as Chair,
men. The list includes John A
Chamberlain, F. W. Shepherd, H
d. King, j. W. Merriam, Brice
Ketchum, F. R. Anderson, Johr
Walworth, Arthur Griffith anC
Sterling Apthorp. Charles Carrar
has served as vice-chairman fol-
more than % years.
Devoted mothers by the hun.
dreds have worked like beavers in
the Mothers Club. Literally scores
of young men have served wonder
fully as volunteers. In the years
which have passed, the Alumni of
the Branch have taken their place
along side the older men. The
East Cleveland Branch has always
been an important factor in the
operations of the Great Cleveland
Y.
The staff leadership has been
excellent, Joseph Bunker, John
Greiner, Roy Fleming, cap"
North, Jim Whyte, "Bill" Markell
and Jim North all gave a great
account of themselves and went
on to greater responsibilities.
Erie Chapman and William Cum
Ter gave of themselves far above
and beyond the call of duty and
much that the branch achieved was
due to their hard work and un-
selfish devotion to duty.
You have fine new Executive
Secretary in Gordon Esch. He is
well trained and well grounded in
association work. We bespeak, for
him, the same fine backing you
have given all his predecessors.
We know, deservedly, all the fine
people both lay and staff who
labored so well, who planned so
wisely and gave so generously to
make this day possible.
Among the happiest days of my
life were those of the years 1921
to 1885 with all their poignant
memories. Yes, the years which
have passed have been wonder
full. The harvest has been truly
abundant. The East Cleveland
Branch has served this Commu-
nifty we'll and the good citizens
of East Cleveland have supported
it generously, but the past is only
prologue, truly the best years lie
ahead. On the strong foundations
of the past bigger and better
task lies in the future. We live in
a faster moving, more complex
age and the problems of young
people are greater than ever.
AS never before, the Young
Mems Christian Association, is
challenged, to make it's program
and purpose truly effective and
meaningful in the lives of young
people. As we dedicate this fine
building, we also rededicate our
lives to the service Of Him who
lived and died that we might have
Life more abundantly.
