THE ANNUAL STAFF
Man has his limitations and his faults. Ko single person or thing is
absolutely perfect. So this book has not attained perfection, but it re-
presents the best efforts of the staff. Love's labor is never lost,
and if, in the years to come, when the burdens of life are heaviest, this
humble volume shall aid in recalling to mind the activities end friend-
ships of youth, our labor shall not have been in vain, and the work in
publishing this annual will be repaid.

THL PURPLE AND GOLD
Volume XVII of the Purple and Gold, the nofficial news voice of
Ada High School,U was published throughout the school year by a selected
staff with the co-operation of the administration, faculty, students,
the Ada Herald, and the printing classes. Its form was changed this year
from a small, three-column, eight-page monthly, to a larger four-column,
four-page bi-weekly newspaper. Staff members met monthly to discuss
problems, methods, and styles of writing, and to evaluate their work.
Because of financial difficulties, the P Q G had a bake sale on
January 31. The students responded enthusiastically to the appeal for
their support in this project. A sophomore team and a junior team tied
for first place in the amount of baked goods contributed to this highly
successful sale.

Special issues during the year included the
Fool's,UVWho's tho,UVSenior,n and UThank Youu issues. The latter was the
first paper published on the new press given by Mrs.

The paper attempted to emphasize individuals
to cover the activities of all organizations and important events. News
of the future, rather than the past, was stressed. A poll of student
opinion on controversial and timely subjects was made under the sponsor-
ship of the paper. The results of the poll were turned over to the Stu-
dent Council and to the administration for their consideration and
action.
Members of the classes which printed the paper include Lowell
Umphress and Harmon Binkley, student instructors, and George Parshall,
Charles Moore, and Everette Swinney.

The senior class play,uLena Rivers,n was given on the evenings of
May 6 and 7. The nlay, which covers a year's events, concerns Granny
Nichols and Lena, who have come to live in the Kentucky 'home of
Granny's son, John Livingstone, and his socially-ambitious wife. There
are three children: Caroline, who is like her mother: John Junior, her
typical teen-age brother: and Anna, who is as warm and kind-hearted as
her sister is not. Frank Graham, a neighbor, is mysteriously ,in-
terested in Lena, but his jealous wife cannot bear to see her son Cby
a former marriagej, Durward Bellmont, become interested in the girl
when it has always been taken for granted he'd marry Caroline.
Anna, unknown to her parents, is in love with Malcolm Everett, a
tutor in the Livingstone home. Aunt Milly is a colored servant who
does not like to be bossed: but who likes to boss the other servants,
especially Old Caesar, who is always Nfixin' to do.n John and Anna
become friends of Lena, who in turn helps Anna and Malcolm in their
cause. Mrs. Livingstone tries to ruin Lena's life by gossip and a
scandal she starts. I
In the happy ending, however, Frank Graham reveals himself as
Lena's father, and Anna and Malcolm, Caesar and Milly, and Durward and
Lena are united.

ACT I.
Olarice Borland, ambitious for her daughter's marriage to Tish's
nephew, calls on Madame Gasparilli, who, after surreptitious prompting by
Clarice, locates Tish's brooch. Then, bribed by Clarice, Madame prophe-
sies Gil will marry Trudi, so Tish is satisfied. Gil returns home and
reveals that he has suffered amnesia while roaming the world. Tish loses
no time in telling him that he must propose to Trudi, the girl of her
choice, or be disinherited, Fifty grand looks good to Gil, so he pro-
mises. Trudi, already in love with Hap, is heartbroken, and Hap and Fats
decide that to prevent the marriage, they will pose as foreign wives whom
Gil is supposed to have married while he was an amnesia victim. '
AGT II.
To Trudi's dismay, Gil proposes and because of her mother's high
blood pressure she has to accept. Sue thinks that Gil is her former fi-
ance who suddenly left her. Soon Hap enters as Lolita, a Whot tamalen
from Mexico, who says she is Gil's wife, Before Gil has recovered from
the Shock of Lolita, Fats as Princess Boogie-Woogie, a cannibal, makes
his entrance as Gil's wife, too. To settle the wives' quarrel over Gil,
lolita decides to take only his heart and Boogie-Wbogie will eat the rest
of him. Gil suddenly makes a break for the door and dashes out with his
wives close at his heels.
ACT III.
The whole household is bewildered over Gil's wild acting wives and
GVGTYOHG tries to keep out of their way. Tish becomes so thoroughly dis-
gusted with Hotchkiss and his aching tooth that she calls a dentist, Dr.
Jonesby. Before the deaf doctor can be told who his patient is, he tries
to pull several persons' teeth, among them Gil's. From this shock, Gil
regains his memory and recognizes Sue as his fiancee. Madame Gasparilli
and Clarice are made to confess their plot by Hap and Fats, so Trudi and
Hap announce their engagement. Sapolia. the hill billy cook, who adds
many laughs throughout the play, finally snares Hotchkiss who in the end
attacks the dentist and pulls his tooth.

FOOTBALL
The football season opened on August 20 with forty-two boys eager
to play ball. Bbr the next three weeks the team literally nsweat it
outn under a blazing sun in order to get in shape for their first game
with Wapak.
The Wapak game was unique in several ways. Besides being the first
game of the season, it was also the first game to be played in Memorial
Park under the new field lights. The Bulldogs made a good showing in
their new uniforms and beat Wapak 6 to O.
At Bluffton it was a different story. Over-confidence was the
cause of the Bulldog's first and only defeat.
The Bulldogs again started playing their good brand of football
and defeated their next three opponents--Hicksville, Carey, and Delphos
Jefferson. It will be especially remembered that the defeat of Delphos
Jefferson, 38 to 7, climaxed Queen's Day.
A week later the Bulldogs went to Kenton and played in quite a
thriller. The Wildcats came up from behind in the last quarter and
turned our apparent victory into a 13 to 13 tie.
Ada's last three victims showed little resistance to the Bulldogs'
drives. Paulding did not cross the line once and was beaten 19 to O.
Squad members' fathers sat on the bench on Dads' Day to watch their sons
beat Forest 14 to 7. On November 7 the Bulldogs completed a very suc-
cessful season by defeating Elida, last yeaI's champs, 27 to 12.

GIRLS' ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION
President-Jackie Lamb
Vice-President-Sara Jane Kreglow
Secretary-Janice Howbert
TreasurereMaxine Deringer
A Adviser-Mrs. Marjorie Omler
The G. A. A. which is known officially as the Girls' Athletic
Association is composed of all girls in grades nine through twelve who
are interested and take an active part in school athletics.
Meetings are held the first Monday night of each month. The first
meeting in September was a freshmen initiation when all freshmen and
new students were taken into the club. In October a volleyball plays
nite was held followed by a potluck. A skating party was held at the
Lima Skating Rink in November. The rest of the meetings included a
Valentine Hop at which a King and Queen of Hearts reigned in February,
a basketball playnite and potluck in March, and an All-Sports night in
April with Shawnee High School. The year's activities closed with the
annual farewell banquet in May in honor of the seniors. New officers
were presented and the awards were made. Gold pins were given to Doris
Clum, Jo Ann Hays, Janice Howbert, Anne Michael, Patty Moore, Ruth Ann
McMillen, Patricia Thompson and Sara Jane Kreglow. Letters were award-
ed to Maxine Deringer, Agnes Garver, Jane Gilbert, Lois Harris, Janet
Harrod, Audrey Hover, Sara Jane Kreglow, Marcia Marshall, Florence
Miller, Patty Motter, Evonda McMi1len, Norma Romiek, Mary Stuber, Sara
Willeke and Avonelle Burman.
The G.A.A. sponsors tournaments in basketball, kickball,softbal1,
volleyball, deck tennis and shuffle board. The class winning the most
tournaments receives the G.A,A. cup. The juniors were presented the
cup this year for 'victories in kickball, softball, volleyball and
shuffle board.
There are two awards which the girls may earn-a letter for 600
points and a gold pin for 1000 points. Points are earned by competing
in the tournaments, selling at football and basketball games and
tournaments, and attending the functions of the club. This year three
medals were added to our list of awards to the girls who excel in
basketball, softball, and volleyball. Janice Howbert and Doris Clum
were awarded basketball medals: Jackie Lamb and Ruth McMillan were
given volleyball medals and Anne Michael received the softball medal.
. CHEERLEADERS
At an election held at the beginning of the year 'four active
members of G.A.A. were chosen as cheerleaders for the year. They are:
Doris Clum, Jackie Lamb, Anne Michael, and Audrey Hover. ,

FRESHMEN EPITAPHS
Here lies the body of Maurice Murnmr,
The monitors caught him when he got in a hurry.
It took something like this to teach Juanita Keller,
Never to pick on a great big feller.
Shirley Main, who sang like a lark,
Got lost in the suburbs of New Stark.
Here lies a favorite, Robert Cross,
He never found out who was the boss.
Poor Joyce Smith, who was so adorin',
But her nose stopped up while she was a snorin'.
Here are the remains of Poor Norma Wright,
It's too bad that she never learned how to fight.
Poor Carolyn Rayl never got over
That cactus she sat on in a field full of clover.
Betty Dodge - didn't.
Chuck Moore, will you never learn just what to do,
Whenever a baseball comes flying to you?

HISTCRY OF THE CLASS OF 1948
Twelve years ago, on September 8, l936, the forty-eight seniors
sitting before you started on their long road of adventure through
school. Twenty-eight of this group began their school life in Ada,
fourteen at the south building and fourteen at the north building.
Miss Reese and Miss Hehe were the kind teachers who guided us through
our first year.
Proud but still unexperienced we advanced to the second grade,
where Miss Povenmire and Miss Whitworth tried in vain to teach us to
spell. The students of the north and south building met for the first
time at a spelling bee held at the north building.
Under the able supervision 'of Miss Kelly and Miss McBride we
learned the difficult fundamentals of multipication in the third
grade.
In 1959 we entered the fourth grade eager to learn more as we ad-
vanced through school. Miss Armstrong and Mrs. Tallman were our
capable advisors. The following year in the fifth grade, led by Miss
Wagner and Miss McWilliams we were at last united. Under the direct-
ion of Miss Titus the operetta UThe Fbrest Court,U which was presented
here recently, was given by the grade school.
At last our dreams were fulfilled as we entered the sixth grade
and became upper-classmen. During this year Mrs. Tallman and Mrs.
Underwood prepared us for the day so long looked forward to when we
would graduate and enter junior high.
In 1942 ,with six years of school behind us, we approached Ada
High with great anticipation for the years to como. Miss Mills, Mrs.
Tallman, Mrs. Coleman, and Mrs. Hawk helped us through the difficult
years of junior high. Much competition was shown in the eighth grade
tests with Sara Lou Dobbins receiving top honors.- A
The ninth grade found us entering many more activities, joining
new clubs and preparing for our life work by choosing our own courses.
Miss Benroth and Mrs. Anspach were our faculty advisers and we elected
James Gobin as our class president.
Our sophomore year found us in the study hall with Mr. Pfeil as
our adviser. This year our interests turned more and more toward
athletics as our boys began participating in basketball and football.
Later in the year our class united with one main purpose in mind--to
win the Interclass Contest. Although we lost the contest we surely
gave the class of '46 a Wrun for their money.' James Gobin again was
our class president.
Under the leadership of Shirley Hindall and sponorship of Mr.
Pfoil, we started the many tasks that confront a struggling junior.
One of the most outstanding events of our junior year was our class
play nLittle Women.n We were all proud of the talent the cast showed
and thev all received the backing of the entire class. Under an azure
sky and twinkling stars tho theme of our junior-senior prom,nStardustf
was carried out. This is one of the memories of our school life which
we will always cherish. It was during this year that we won the Inter-
class Contest and the much-desired cup.
Although most of our school years were filled with joy there were
times of sorrow. Two of our closest classmates, Luther Campbell and
Jack Schindler,werc taken from us during our sophomore and junior year
respectively.
As our school life came to a close and we began our senior year,
we found the pages of our book of memories becoming rapidly filled.
The first week of school we elected Karl Spar as our class president
to lead us through our last year. He was aided by Robert Daft, vice-
president,Shirley Hindall,secretary, and Patricia Thompson, treasurer.
A successful football season was high-lighted by the dedication of the
new Memorial Park drew to a close with the election of James Gobin and
David Sousley as honorary co-captains. Jackie Lamb, attended by Anne
Michael and Doris Clum, reigned as football queen on Senior Day. Our
class was well represented in basketball by having five senior boys on
the varsity team. Dean Klingler was elected honorary captain. For
the second consecutive year we were the honored guests at the Inter-
class Banquet because of our victory at the contest the night before.
We chose as our senior class play VLena Riversn which was presented on
May 6 and 7 and directed by Miss Edna Buehler. Jean Snyder and Sara
Lou Dobbins were chosen as co-valedictorians,the second in the history
of Ada High School, with Shirley Hindall as salutatorian. They were
named because of their exceptional grades throughout school.
New we come to the fork in the road, with our school years behind
us and our journey into life, before us. It is up to us to choose
which road we will fellow. No matter how far we may drift apart no one
can take the wonderful memories of each other and Ada High School from
us. With this thought in mind we leave Ada High wishing the best of
luck to the rest of you.

AS WE EMBARK
Twelve years have passed since first we walked
With eager footsteps turning
Toward strange new paths and happy days
Within the halls of learning.
We've worked and played, we've laughed and cried
Together through the years.
With friends who've been so dear to us
We've shared our dreams, our fears.
In music, scholarship, and sports,
Our class has made its mark.
And now we turn toward higher goals--
For other ports embark.
Our lifelong journey has begun.
Whate'er the course may be,
We'll set our sails for what's to come-
For calm or stormy sea.
We say nFarewellH to Ada Highg
Our school work here is done.
Tonight we launch, and as we go,
nGod bless us, every oneln
