45ActivitiesHomecoming
One of the biggest events of the fall season is homecoming week. This year the bonfire really psyched up the students and team as the homecoming court spoke and a Bearcat was burned in effigy. Friday, the fire department led a parade through town to add to the excitement.
The crowning of the homecoming queen was the culmination of the week's events. Queen Laura Lite and her court looked radiant as they were escorted across the field by members of the team. The Bulldogs lost a close one to Spencerville but it was an exciting and well-played game.
Saturday, to finish off the festivities, numerous couples swayed to the music of Sirrus at the dance sponsored by Student Council. All in all, homecoming week was a success and enjoyed by all.

Homecoming 49Music Feast
The Music Feast has always been popular and successful and this year the fourth annual Music Feast, held on November 7, was no exception.
As show choirs from Bluffton,
Cory Rawson, as well as Ada's own Varsity Singers, the girls ensemble, and several other local groups displayed their talents, music patrons dined on steak and sandwiches. Later in the evening a dance was
held in the multi-purpose room.
A large number of people attended the Feast, and, as one patron said, “Everyone always has a great time. It's one of the most entertaining events of the year.”

V-l-C-T-O-R-Y, that's the Bulldog battle cry! And the Bulldogs were victorious with a 72-58 win over the Hardin Northern Polar Bears. The sophomores were also victorious, winning the Spirit Week competition.
Spirit Week got off to a slow start
because of the many days of school missed due to bad weather. Activities were postponed to the week of February 8-12.
Students in grades 7-12 decorated the hallways and each class presented a skit at the pep rally on Friday. The different classes were
judged on their decorations, skit, and spirit shown at the game.
Though the freshmen won first prize in the spirit category, the sophomores won first prize in the decoration and skit categories and were the overall champions.

A lot of hard work and time go into the presentation of a musical, as the 50 member cast of "Hello Dolly” discovered. The chorus, orchestra, and stage crew directed by Mrs. Knoble, Mr. McDowell, and assistant director Jeff Bowman, worked for nearly three months on the delightful musical presented on March 26 and 27.

The Annual Staff is an organization of students with the same goal: to produce a quality yearbook. Every Thursday after school members gather in the business room and draw up layouts, write body and copy, choose snapshots and crop pictures to meet deadlines. Photographers can be seen around school and at most sports events and other assemblies taking pictures.
The staff finances the yearbook by selling advertisements to area businesses, selling calendar, and working concession stands at basketball games. The Annual Staff is open to any student in grades 9-12 with an interest in preserving the memories of Ada High School in the pages of "We".

The Youth Advisory Council to the School Lunch Program consists of five members. Throughout the year the Council samples new foods, names them and decides whether to add them to the menu. Members visit other schools and make comparisons of our program to the ones visited. Also, a survey is taken of the student body on our lunch program. This enables students to let us know their likes and dislikes and to make suggestions on how we can improve our lunch program.

The 1981 Ada High School Football Team had a successful season this year. This success was due to strong senior leadership, the fine coaching of head coach Carey Clum along with his assistants Bruce McConnell, Greg Grimslid, Jim Hay and Dan Mathie, and hard work and continual effort put forth by the entire team. The varsity team closed
the season with a 6-3-1 record and ended up third in the Northwest Conference.
Throughout the season the Bulldogs provided contagious excitement for fans by using a wide open offense that established several new records. Two of Ada's losses this year came by a combined total of three points.Junior High Football

The 1981 Ada Bullpups finished their season with a very respectable five wins and one loss. The team of eighteen eighth graders and fifteen seventh graders had allowed only one team in five to score. While showing complete defensive dominance, the Pups' offense racked up a season total of 65 points. In their last game under the lights of the Bluffton High School football field, the Dogs went down to their only defeat, at the hands of an exceptionally big and fast Priate squad. The book has not closed for our gridiron hopefuls of the future.

The cheerleaders of the 1981-82 sports season feel that they have put forth their best effort in promoting school spirit throughout the year. Not only do they cheer at football and basketball games, but they also make signs, candy buttons, organize caravans and plan pep rallies. Mrs. Sleesman was the advisor for the Varsity, Junior Varsity and Freshman squads and Mrs. Cathi Kent was the Junior High advisor. These women have worked hard to make the squads successful. The cheerleaders would like to thank them for their efforts.

The tennis team for 1982 had a record of 3-10. We played a very tough schedule and showed a great deal of improvement said Coach Byers. It took a great deal of hard work due to not having a tennis team for the past three years. Our only letterman was Bill Chase, a senior. In the A-AA Bill made it to round three in singles, and Kent and Karl Oliver, Paul Saffell and Jim Barker all made it to round two in doubles. With seven returning lettermen for next year the future looks great.

The 1982 Baseball season was a great disappointment in terms of wins and losses as we compiled a 2 and 15 final record. This record does not necessarily reflect the type of young men on the team but it better reflects their inexperience and youth. We in the baseball program are optimistic in looking at Ada’s future, as the 1982 team will graduate two seniors in Jay Hood and Alan Risner. We will be back in 1983 ready to move on and improve.
