Freshman Hi-Y Strives For Unity With the purpose of creating and maintain- ing throughout the school and community a higher standard of Christian character, the boys of the Freshmen Hi-Y organized their ehih with vigor. Barry Nauts was elected to preside over the meet- ings and Bruce Steinhauer, to the position of vice- president. The minutes of the meetings were kept by Jack Mundy, while Louis Henkel collected the dues and balanced the treasurer ' s book. The meetings were very entertaining with such speakers as Mr. Tibet, Mr. Leverett, and other well known citizens. At some of the remaining meetings we had debates and discussions. The Freshman Hi-Y undertook two commun- ity projects this year. The first was to distribute Community Chest parcels. It was thrilling to go to the different business places of Toledo and to see all those who were participating in the drive. The second project was to help distribute Christmas baskets to the less fortunate people of the city and the surrounding country side. A dele- gation of fifteen boys started at 8:30 a. m. the day before Christmas and began packing about two hundred baskets. After packing, the members broke up into smaller groups and delivered bas- kets in the city while some boys went to suburban areas. Besides being interesting and lots of fun, this project gave us satisfaction by helping others. Soon after, the area Freshman Hi-Y basket- ball tournament began. As some of the high schools had not yet formed Freshman Hi-Y Clubs, our DeVilbiss team had only two opponents — Jones Junior High School and Robinson Junior High School. The first game with Jones was a hard and well-won battle with DeVilbiss ' winning by a score of 19 to 12. The second game with Rob- inson was the championship game with Robinson regarded as the favorite. We took a 6 to 2 lead and kept on playing with excellent teamwork to win, 35 to 11. The members enjoyed many other recrea- tional activities at the Y.M.C.A. throughout the year. We came to the end of this year with the ad- dition of manv new friends made through our De- Vilbiss Freshman Hi-Y. 93

Junior Y-Teens Promote Service It was meeting night! All the members of the Junior Y-Teen club raced from seventh hour classes to lockers and then to the adviser, Mrs. Mennig. The poor woman was swamped with re- quests for rides to meeting. The very lucky girls went off for the ride while the majority of us, the unfortunates, ran for the school bus. As we got on the bus, questions and comments such as Do we get a transfer? and Can ' t they move back a little so everyone can get on? were heard. On our way, we settled down and began wondering where it was that we got off. Usually we found the right stop. As we entered the home where the meeting was to be held, everyone dashed to the mirror to comb those gleaming locks. About ten minutes later the meeting was called to order by the presi- dent, Carolyn Steinhauer. She called for the sec- retary ' s report which was promptly given by Phyl- lis Butler. After that the prayer was given by the chaplain, Eldonna Seawater, and Donna Potter gave her report, the treasurer ' s report. Upon hear- ing we had money in the treasury, Barbara Price reminded us tliat we owed the Inter-Club Council part of it. Barbara represented the club at DeVil- biss and at the Y.W.C.A. The next important item was to decide upon our activities, and this was the program we plan- ned and participated in. During the year we had a theater party, hay ride and roast, and a Hi-Y- Teen party at the Y.M.C.A. Marion Stone and Patsy Goss were in charge of The Third Annual Picnic of the Junior Y -Teens of DeVilbiss High School. Our splash party was a success as was the song fest we gave for all the Y-Teens at De- Vilbiss. Nancy Neidlinger, the Sergeant-at-Arms, had quite a time keeping the girls quiet. Pat Shannon reported that we had collected food for Europe and packed food for the needy in our own city. We also sold ice cream at the DeViltries and dec- orated the school at Christmas time. At last we came to the most important part of the meeting — the refreshments. After relieving our hostess of all this food, we adjourned for two more weeks. Top Row, L to R : Virginia Parenle.

Prospective Homemakers And The DeVilbiss Future Homemakers of Amer- ica grew this year with an addition of twenty-five new members who joined after receiving invita- tions showing the chib emblem and colors. The can- dlelight initiation was held at the home of Ar- lyne Stoll while Gloria Smith relinquished her basement for the rough initiation ceremony. During November we wrapped and mailed twenty Christmas gifts to the World Festivals for Friendship for children overseas. Late in Janu- ary we received fifteen artistic, personal thank-you cards for these packages. December found us at a Christmas party at Darlene Lange ' s home. We gave up our gift ex- change in preference to entertaining fifty-two ten to twelve-year-old children at the Miami Children ' s Home on the Monday before Christmas. We also decorated a hall display case at DeVilbiss under the leadershif) of Gloria Smith and Carolyn Stein- liauer. The committee chairmen for the year were: Program — Carolyn Steinhauer; Social — Shirley Behm; Project — Ronnie Engelke; Publicity — Dar- lene Lange; Membership — Edith Upson. The home economics department of the Uni- versity of Toledo was the topic of a tour and tea in February. A conducted tour through LaSalle ' s and a St. Patrick ' s Day party formed the meetings of March. Speakers from the Gas Company and Toledo Edison Company augmented by Miss Marie Stoll talking on her trip to England held the interest of the members in later meetings. Plans were made for a dance and bake sale to make money for the treasury. The purposes of the club are to promote a growing appreciation of homemaking, to work to- ward good home life for all, to promote interna- tional good will, to develop leaders, to provide wholesome recreation, to further interest in home economics. Officers for the year were Gloria Smith, Pres- ident; Arlyne Stoll, Vice-President; Ellen Cole, Secretary; Gwen Treby, Treasurer; Janet Rees, In- ter-Club Council Representative; Nancy Terry, Historian; Miss Marie Stoll and Miss Mary Barg- mann, advisers. 94
