SUMMARY
The nBu1ldogs,u with their ranks slightly dented by the gradua-
tion of eight lettermen, returned this year with high spirits and a
will to play ball.
The season opened on the gridiron of Wapak. It was here the
NBulldogsU showed the stuff they were made of. Only after a bitter
fight did the WBul1dogen go down to a 12-7 defeat.
For the first home game of the season Ada played host to a rival
Upper Sandusky team. The battling Bulldogs proved no match for the
strong Upper Sandusky eleven and bowed out 27-O.
Ada then staged a mild come back by playing Delphos Jefferson to
B 6"6 ti9e
The always fighting Bulldogs returned the next week to play a
superior Carey team with a resulting score of 21-O.
In the big game of the year with our county rivals Kenton, the
Bulldogs reached a midseason form. Through this spectacular game the
NBul1dogsu emerged victorious over the Hwildcatsn leore 6-O.
At the last game of the year the Bulldogs 'were still giving
everything they had but the overpowering Forest team claimed the vic-
tory 19-6.
By winning two games, tying one and losing five the Bulldogs can
not claim what is called a nsuccessful season.n Even though they
came out on the short end of the score five times, in most cases it
was because they wer outclassed and not because they didn't play as
hard as they could.
The graduating seniors of the football team of N45Nx P. Bosse,
D. Irwin, W. Fisher, C. Conley, J. Dally, G. Deringer, P. Volckening,
G. Gilbert, R. Murray, N. Amey, J. Elliott, and B. Gobin, wish the in
coming team the best of luck.

TOURNAMENT
At the opening of the basketball season this year only two let-
termen headed the list of players--Niles Amey and Phil Bossa.
The first two games of the season were won with comparative ease.
In the following four games the WBulldogs,N though defeated, gradually
molded themselves into -a combination that could work together to win
games. These five weve: Bosse and Volkening as forwards, Kreglow and
Banks as guards, and Amey as center. Elliott in the sixth man posi-
tion was an able substitute for any of the first five. This winning
combination topped the next six teams with heavy scores, In the last
three games of the season the boys gave way to slightly stronger teams
The WBulldogsW entered the tournament with high hopes and a good
chance to come out on top. Although the Ada five played five games in
the tournament, they were beaten by Hicksville and dropped consohtbn
game to Wbpak St, Joseph.
Among the promising members of the reserve squad are Jim Gobin,
Dave Sousley, Bob Daft, Arthur Amey, Jack Schindler, and Dean Klin-
ger. The out-going seniors are: Niles Amey, Phil Bosse, Jim Banks.
John Elliott, and Paul Volckening.
Clyde Lamb as coach of the football and basketball teams' has
been both coach and Wpalu to all associated with him. We wish him
luck.

The G. A. A..year was opened by a scavenger hunt and potluck sup!
per in the school dining room. Other social events of the year were
a chili-supper, exchange programs with Bluffton G. A. A., a bobby-sox
dance, a box supper and valentine dance, play-night with Mount Cory

The Purple and Gold, official news voice of Ada High School, is
published every month of the school year as a result of the combined
efforts of Miss Buehler, the editorial staff, and the printing club.
Ten issues of the 1945-1946 Purple and Gold were published, in-
cluding the two special issues--the first one in the second week of
school, and the last one a big senior issue.
The aim of the newspaper staff was to bring the most news to the
most students in the most interesting manner in the least time. Nur
merous pictures of students active in schnol affairs were printed to
make the paper more attractive and more interesting to more people.
The printing class, who, without the aid of a regular instructor
nevertheless printed ten issues of the paper, included Richard Irwin,
Gene Gilbert, Lowell Umphress, and Harmon Binkley.

between the students and the faculty. Thereare four seniors, three
juniors, two sophomores. one freshman, and one each from the seventh
and eighth grades.
The councilsmarted its 1945-46 work by promoting the sale of :an
activity ticket. This lessened the cost of games, plays, parties and
assemblies for each individual who purchased a ticket. In the second
semester a magazine campaign was sponsored by the council, which en-
abled them to buy a new URecordioH for use in music classesfnd school
parties. The groupalso spvnsored the annual interclass contest and
banquet.
The council is divided into three permanent committees. who func-
tion throughout the year. The social committee, composed of three
members and class representatives, has supervised two senior high par-
ties, two junior high parties, and one combined Wall schooln party.

'46u was the only comedy to win the Pulitzer Prize. This prize was
awarded for the outstanding dramatic achievement of the year. 'You
Can't Take It With You' is the Type of play that will keep you in
stitches laughing and at the same time slip in some good sound phi-
losophy.

who in the order of their appearance, are as follows: Mrs. Sycamore,
Lucretia Johnsong Essie, Jean Main: Rheba, Alice Anspach,Agnes La Rue:

Elliott: Mrs. Kirby, Ruby Thompson: G-Men, James Carmean,Gene Gilbert,

In the First act the Sycamore family is introduced. In their
household everyone does exactly what they want to. Mrs. Sycamore
writes plays,Mre Sycamore and Mr. De Pinna make fireworks in the base-
ment. Essie does ballet dancing and makes candy in her spare time.
Ed plays the trombone and prints.
Alice Sycamore announces to her family that she has been going
with Tony Kirby Cher boss's sonj and that she has invited the family
to dinner for the following evening.
Second Act
Later that same evening the Kirbys arrive. Mr. and Mrs. Kirby
are in the wealthy social circle and inclined to be a little snobbish
Because of their early arrival the Kirbys find the Sycamores unpro-
pared to receive them. In this way they get a true picture of Alicefs
family--a noisy, carefree group. After a series of misunderstandings,
the Kirbys prepare to leave. They are met at the door by G-Men, who
put them all under arrest because of some printed material Ed has un-
willingly made. The act closes as the fireworks in the basement blow
up.
Third Act
The next day when the family has explained evervthing to the G-
men, they are released along with Mr. and Mrs. Kirby who were quite
below their dignity in a jail cell.
Alice is much disappointed because she and her family have not
made a good impression on the Kirbys. Sho therefore gives up all
hope of marrying Tony. He, however, is very insistent that Alice
should marry him regardless of what has happened.
Mr. Kirby arrives to take Tony home and in the course of events
Grandpa persuades him that their way of life is not so bad after all.
Tony and Alice receive Mrs.Kirbys blessing and the play ends happily.
BY JUPITER
,The Junior Class Play, written by Julia Thompson, is a unique
story which ran on Broadway for two years as a very popular stage
show.
The story of the play deals with the legendary Amazons, the lar
bors of Hercules, and the Trojan War. There is a side glance at a
love story between the two leads, "Theseus" a Greek warrior, and the
Amazonian Princess, nAntiope.n
The story takes place in an Amazonian Queendom where the women do
the fighting and ruling while the men are just a domestic convenience.
To their land comes an army of Greek warriors, sight seeing on their
way to seize Troy and lend a hand to half-wit Hercules. -The latter
promised Homer, his publicity man, to steal the sacred girdle of the
Amazon's queen, Hippolyta. The warriors call a truce for the night
and in the morning are the best of friends.
With his expert kisses, more than his sword and shield, Theseus
is winning over the princess.
The climax comes when Sapiens, Hippolyta's
band, is drafted into the army. Meanwhile tho
zone and Theseus takes Antiope back to Greece as
Along with love comes humor and music which

FOCAL DEPARTMENT
The Vocal Department of Ada High School is under the direction
of Miss Betty Fravel and is made up of three major divisions,-a Mixed
Chorus of Forty-five members, a Girls' Choir of forty members, and a
Freshman Chorus of thirty voices. In addition to these organizations
there ls a Girls' Ensemble. The students who participate in the first
two organizations named are taken from the three upper classes--Sopho-
more, Junior, and Senior.
During the past year the Mixed Chorus participated in many pro-
grams, a few of which were--Farmers' Institute, Joint Band and Chorus
Concert, District Contest at Bluffton, and Baccalaureate Service.
The highlight of the year was "Auditorium sessiohw in which beth
band and choir participated. In addition to the cantata 'The Legend
of Sleepy Hollown with Loretta Darnell as soloist the choir sang three
numbers which were as follows:
The Heavens Are Telling-Haydn
Listen to the Lambs-Dett Nash
What of the Night-Thompson
This choir also went to the district contest at Bluffton on April
27 at which time they sang WIf With All Your Hearts Ye Truly Seek Men
by Mendelssohn and WBluebirdsN by Leontovick.
The officers of this group are:
President-Niles Amey
Vice President-Gloria Welsh
Secretary-Treasurer-Loretta Darnell
Accompanist-Neil Davis
The Girls' Choir also entered the contest at Bluffton and present-
ed as their numbers NThe Lord Bless You and Keep Youn by Lutkin and
0A11 Glory, Laud, and Honorw by Teschnercain.
The Girls' Ensemble, made up of junior and senior g1rls,has play-
ed an important part in the music activities of the past year. At the
Bowling Green contest on April 13 both the ensemble and soloists- Jean
Main and Loretta Darnell-received excellent ratings.
BAND
Under the skillful direction of Kelly Danford the Ada High School
Band has reached a high goal. It has proved its ability by partici-
pating in several functions of the school year, among first of which
was the entertainment of the school and its guests during Farmers' In-
stitute. -
The outstanding achievement of the band this year was the choral-
band concert uAuditorium Session.H Some of the compositions are as
follows:

For the first time in several years a district instrumental and:
vocal contest was held at Bluffton College. Our band participated by
the playing of WMantilla Overture' and Wfhe Trave1er.n This completed
the public appearances for the Ada High School Band of 1945-46.
ORCHESTRA
The orchestra under Mr. Danford's supervision has done well this
year but has not made as many public appearances. It has gained sev-
eral neoded string and clarinet instruments and thus greatly improved
its vo mme and tone quality.
Among its activities was the appearance in commencement exercises
in May. At this time two numbers were played. 'PavanneW by Gould and
'Andante from Surprise Symphony' by Haydn.
A string ,ensemble of twenty-one students worked on Shubort's
' uartet,' WRosamund Overturen and Tschaikowsky's NTheme from the

ODE to the SENIORS
by
Willa Creps and Chester Neff
O' Seniors we are, and we longingly gaze
At azure horizons: our youth being drawn
To fire the great world with ambition and song,
And try to renew what has weakened and gone.
Through the long centuries from medieval ages
What thoughts have arisen to your mind and ours
Concerning the heritage coming as in showers
From long-dead ancestors and eternal sages?
O' that the coming age will have done as well
Toward leaving to earth culture eternal
As our forbearers have enlightened the ages
By their undying wisdom, phi1osophy's immortal.
So have we entered, so shall we leave our experience
Which then becomes memory--bitter and sweet.
Let us remember those memories, for l1fe's street
Will be enriched by memories' essence.
O' Seniors we were and are new prepared
To face the temptations and uncertainty of life
To the fullest extent that we overcome strife
And can pit our will against fate and be spared.
So when we embark on 1ife's voyage we must think
Of Him who helped us as sheep in the fold.
Let us come unto Him and let ue behold
The blessed message which the Master brings.
Then as some of the mysteries of life unfold
We wait with anticipating joy for the morrow:
Always impatient until age and thought o'er takes
Us on the path we follow for knowledge and gold.
So as in youth we seek the glowing and wondrous star
Sparkling like a fiery diamond on draped velvet
We are now ready to reach yon shining star
O'er the broad and pure highway heralding success.

CLASS HISTORY FOR CLASS OF 1946
Tonight there sits before you one of the greatest classes ever to
graduate from Ada High. Out of this class, eleven of the present
thirty-nine students started their school days at the south building
fourteen at the north building--and nineteen of that same twenty-five
have completed their entire school career in good old Ada. Six that
started back there in 1934 later CamG back to graduate with us. Miss
Gallant and Miss Wehevvwith a bangu started us off towards the goal of
graduation which we have attained. In the second grade Miss Reese and
Miss Whitworth taught us some of the things a second grader ought
to know. In the third grade, Miss Kelly and Miss McBride taught us not
to tease the younger boys and girls by means of cracking of hands with
a yard stick. In the fourth grade Miss Rundell and Mrs. Tallman took
over and tried to teach us just how multiplication and division was
SUPPOSED to be done. During this year the Hspelling been between the
north and south buildings proved to be the cause of loads of excite-
ment. In 1938 we were pretty well grown up--we thought--getting to go
upstairs and use Miss Wagner's and Miss McWilliams' rooms. During our
fifth grade we were taught how to get out of the building in case of a
fire--down those strips of iron, better known as fire escapes. At the
beginning of the year, the two buildings were united into one fifth
grade. At first this caused a lot of rivalry. In the sixth grade we
were really growing up fast. Now each class was given the opportunity
to change class rooms instead of the teachers doing the changing. Mr.
Miller and Mrs. Underwood were our home room teachers. We can all re-
member how Mrs. Underwood gave true and false tests and all the ans-
wers were true and how Mr. Miller taught us how to make snow forts and
play baseball. On rainy days we could go into the auditorium and play
checkers, dominoes, and so forth. Near the end of the school year we
were invited by the seventh graders over to the high school building
to visit for a WHOLE day. We were bewildered by all the various bells
and even more surprised at the noise and confusion when the classes
moved. Our sixth grade graduation exercise was the greatest event we
had known. We all had new clothes and spoke our pieces just so.
From the sixth grade, fifty lost and exceedingly stupid kids came
stringing out to Nthe old brain factory,H better known as Ada High
School, where they began their notorious careers. Many of the high
school teachers thought it was a useless attempt to keep such fugi-
tives from Wthe house of correctionn under control--but look at us
now, the greatest class ever to graduate from this great school. Dur-
ing this seventh year we had as able sponsors Miss Baum and Miss Mc-
Donald.
Under the sponsorship of Mr. Hoops and the ever-faithful Mrs.
Hawk, we managed the eighth grade. Most of the year was spent in pre-
paration for the eighth grade tests which came in April. Dorothy Rod-
gers, of course, led the group as she has through her entire school
years. For our eighth grade assembly we gave a short play from Shake-
spears.
Fifty-one students began their high school life under the leader-
ship of Robert Gobin as president and Mr. Zimmer, class Sponsor. To
swell our ranks, Roger Murray and Niles Amey joined our class. Our
boys were allowed to participate in a few sports, as were ourrgirls
permitted Bo Join the G. A. A. We were also honored -by attending the
high school parties.
In the sophomore year we were honored by having the big study
hall for our home room and Mr. Roy Iams as our sponsor. Jean Main
reigned over the class as president. We are now taking our place in
the Interclass Contest for the first time. Dorothy Rodgers, Chester
Neff,Patty Bice and Miriam Dearth CWillekel represented us and brought
us to victory. Our original stunt also won top honors, and so the
great sophomore class ruled the Spanish Banquet on the following
night. During this year Chester Neff and Lucretia Johnson joined us.
Our boys were members of the Hi-Y and our girls were taken into the G.
R. for the next year. The F. H. A. and F. F. A. also attracted a num-
ber Of Our group. The football and basketball squads showed that
there were a good many Sophomores interested in sports.
Under the leadership of Paul Volckening and sponsorship of Miss
Edna Buehler, we started the many tasks that confront a struggling
Junior. This year was one of great excitement as we thought of pro-
ducing a class plan and sponsoring a banquet and prom for the seniors
of that year. WBest Foot Forwardn was selected for our debut in act-
ing--and what a debut--by POPULAR demand we presented our play the
second time. Class assignments were forgotten and we later thought
about the junior-senior prom. The gymnasium was cleverly decorated
with the theme of WThe River of the Roseau being used throughout all
designs. We had a real river and bushels and bushels of roses. The
interclass contest is nothing to speak of as we lost, but nevertheless
our contestants put a lot of time and effort oniheir projects. Doro-
thy Rodgers, Chester Neff, Patty Bice and Miriam Dearth Cwiiiskeb rs-
presented us again this year. The stunt was our shining point, howw
ever, s we took it foroar second year.
To perfect the perfect, the class of '46 undertook their senior
year with an enthusiasm which has never before echoed down the halls
of Ada High School. With practically all the boys represented on the
football squad, six on the basketball squad and baseball we once
again started,-you can see that sports were one of the greates high-
lights of the entire year. INCIDENTALLY, the seniors won the inter-
class contest for the second time, and the stunt for the third conse-
cutive year. Dorothy Rodgers, Chester Neff, Lucretia-Johnson, and
Robert Gobin Represented us, As the year drew to a close the clall
was very sorry to lose one of its classmates, Roger Murray, to the
U. 5. Navy. However, here's the best of luck to you and navy blues,
Roger. For the senior play, we produced the three act comedy entitled
WYou Can t Take It With Youn which proved to be a very great success.
The only new recruit added to our ranks this year was the one and only
Mark Anthony McPheron. We were honor guests later in the year, at the
annual Junior-senior banquet and prom. We had a grand evening and
wish to express our gratitude to the junior class for all their
efforts and co-operation with Miss Huber in planning this gala affair.
Piloted by Niles Amey as president, Robert Gobin as vicedpresi-
dent, Joyce Underwood as secretary, Richard Irwin as treasurer and
under the sponsorship of Miss Evelyn Smith, we completed the senior
year safe and sound and present ourselves for your approval. '
Now with sad hearts we say goodbye to Ada High and start along
1ife's way. We thank you for the greatest days of our lives. May we
soon reach our goal of success and look back and say that Ada High was
