The 1955 football season marked the fourth consecutive season without a defeat for Ann Arbor High School. We have had only one de- feat, in 1951, since Hank Fonde, the most popu- lar guy on campus , ioined the faculty in l949. This past season was our greatest. Captain Bob Correll led our fighting eleven through eight straight victories, which made Ann Arbor the State champions and won for us the 6A League Trophy. The picture above shows the players cele- brating at the 1955 Championship Banquet. The other picture shows how elated our boys were by carrying Mr. Fonde oft the field when Ann Arbor came from behind to win from Battle Creek, T9- l3, in the last tive seconds of the game, and proved beyond any doubt our superiority. Bob Lewis was deservingly voted the most valu- able player of the season, and iunior Jim Baughn was elected to take over Bob Correll's iob as cap- tain for 1956. Long hours spent in the training room brought Paul Smith the Double A Bucket. Other awards were presented by the Detroit Times and Free Press, as well as recognition by the Associated Press. Happy team carries Coach Hank Fonde oft the field after the exciting Battle Creek game.

7:21 eentczda dme ide '56 D Vita Louise, what's wrong, girl? HARVEY I'd like to introduce you to a very good friend of mine. His name is 'Harveyf These familiar words mean trouble as the easy going Elwood P. Dowd, played by John Klein, introduces the six feet one and one-half inches high invisible rabbit to the distinge uished but startled Mrs. Chauvenet, portrayed by Susan Himler. Nancy Carroll, as the aggressive Myrtle Mae Simmons, is convinced that her uncle should be locked up in a sanitarium. Hilarious con- fusion results when Elwood's sister Veta Louise, por- trayed by Denise Miner, tries to commit her brother and finds herself locked up by the sanitarium strong man Wilson, played by Tom Lillard. The young psy- chiatrist Dr. Lyman Sanderson, portrayed by John Courte, and Ruth Kelly, the pretty nurse played by Judy Gilson, realize their mistake in committing the wrong person iust as the family lawyer, Judge Omar Gaffney, portrayed by Allan Schreiber, sues the sanitarium. Dick Bartels, as the authoritative head psychiatrist, Dr. William Chumley, disappears with Elwood and Harvey, to the distress of Mrs. Chum- ley, played by Betsy Underwood. Others who ap- peared were Eleanor Leland as Miss Johnson, the maid, and Charlotte Davis as the crude and philo- sophic cabbie , E. J. Lofgren. Elwood soon leaves the sanitarium to return home with Veta Louise and Myrtle Mae, and finally Harvey becomes an ac- cepted member of the family. Where did he go, Mrs. Chumley?
