The Board of Education, composed of live members, which employ a clerk also, is the executive body forthe three elementary schools Coy, Wynn, Clay and Clay High School. It has done much for the schools and its efforts do not remain unappreciated. They decide which days we shall observe as holidays, and the amount of time we shall put in per day. The board buys the text books for the schools and sees that the necessary repairs are made. lt employs the bus drivers, the ianitors, and the teachers. In previous years, the seniors who graduated had to pay for their own caps and gowns. This year the school board will furnish them because it feels that the boys and girls that are leaving have enough of a financial burden as it is. It's efforts to make our schools modern and erhcient are commended bv all, and the pupils attending high school realize the importance of this board. 1 N F. A. BLACK Primipal OSEPHINE FASSBTT A, N.

Jewel Bricker Motto: Labor Caizqzzerf All Colors: Blue and Gold Flower: Yellow Tm Rare HISTORY We came, we saw, we passed Qby the grace of God and the facultyl. We arrived-what was left of usgafter riding miles in busses minus floating power, badly bruised by the knee action of our too vicarious companions, vet eager to start our work in the Clay Hi Knowledge Factory. I, who have always violently opposed mass production, was thrust into a room with over a hundred other Freshies and told to get to work. Our implements were textbooks, notebooks, paper, pens, and pencils. With these, the foremen Qteachersj declared we might carve our names in the Hall of Fame. I remember wondering if the Hall of Fame were made of wood and think- ing what a magnificent pile of sawdust there would be should all of us succeed with our carving. We must have shown good judgment in selecting our president, Oral Corson. We elected him to that same ofhce the succeeding three years andfwell-we've decided if he ever chooses to run for president of the United States he'll have the loyal support of all us seniors regardless of what party he is a candidate. The next year was a little better than the lirstfthe same old grindethe same old grindstone, but we needed sharpening. Our first few days were spent enjoying the escapades of the freshmenftheir missing classes or coming excitedly into ours, only to slink awayeunseen, they hoped. However, something more important than freshmen entered our lives at that time. We were working industriously in an attempt to get grades which would entitle us to a place in the honor society. Eight from our number succeeded but that comes in next year's story. As we realized that we were being looked up to, we began to grow more dignified and sophisticated. With our increasing self-respect, the upper classmen became more respectful to us. SENIOR CLASS HISTORY As sophomores we gave our hrst assembly with entertainment furnished by Irene Pocsik, Frieda Huss, Jewel Bricker, Bernice Rupp, and Virgil DeLisle. It would hardly be fair to omit that Virgil read an original and very enjoyable poem by Mary Helen Lovell. We passed from a rather quiet year into the whirl which engulfs juniors but- With the third year came the delicate process of edging-when everyone was on edgegthe edge of being sent to the othce for making one of those flippant remarks for which juniors are noted. Of course, we had the right to be somewhat superior for were we not upper classmen? W'ere we not represented equally in congress QStudent Councilj with the seniors? Several social events marked this year as the high water mark of our school lives. We gave our hrst evening play Three Taps at Twelve. It must have been goodg more screams were heard from the audience than at any other play given at Clay High. A Weiner roast was held to celebrate and did we celebrate? The end came with the Junior-Senior Prom and for what junior is this event not a triumph? Of the eleven members of the honor society eight were juniors. These in- cluded Dorothy Danner, Sylvia Henninger, Eleanor Albertson, Margaretjaschob, Oral Corson, Herbert Schumaker, Helen Heckerman, and George Frahn, The fourth year we were examined and polished4polished to such a slippery smoothness that we slipped right throughgeven though we shouldnt have. The Honor Society kept all its members and added Robert Schumaker, james Carstensen, Bernice Rupp, and Freda Dutterer. We put on another play A'Who Wouldn't Be Crazy with Oral Corson and Irene Pocsik taking the leads. This excited as much laughter as our hrst had aroused screams. We regret only that we must leave Clay School which has backed us through four long-sometimes tedious-but mostly happy years. We've slipped right into the luxurious idleness that always accompanies a prolonged depression. Its a splendid rest cure. We will never want to rest again. So you who are still on the line in the Clay Hi Knowledge Factory would do well to hang on to your jobs. You're assured of four years employment which is much better than being one of the idle poor.

Friends we've known through the year We'll meet as men without a peer. Oral on a big white horse, A forest ranger he'll be, of course. In Eleanor a nurse we see, No gentler girl will ever be. No one knows what Hugh will do, Though to him radio is nothing new. The radio bug nipped Pauly, too, Famous deeds he is bound to do. Roy is sure to drive a truck, The Fates will give to him good luck. Dorothy now is one to travel, Her troubles easily will unravel. Along with her comes Bernice, On happiness she holds a lease. To the house of life our Lenore Holds a key for every door. Gene will become a husky golf pro, Sufficient in ideas, deficient in dough. Tom wants to be a chemist, A fellow like him should be a dentist. And Charles, a sweeper salesman on the s Like a policeman on his beat, And the policeman we'll let be Wesley with his eye on the free. And as a stewardess on a plane Gertrude K. will gain her fame. And the pilot will be friend George, Truth and honesty he'll never forge. ln our class no minister have we, But a minister's wife, Helen H. we'll see. Margaret N. claims she will be a teacher, IN QHYTHMD treer, Every good quality Margaret may feature. Jack Stoddard sometime as a dean Of a college will be seen. Robert S. now as warden, picture At a jail, a permanent fixture. An artist now we see in Jewel, An individualist-no one's tool. Warren, a lawyer, high in the world, All cases on him will be curled. A typist now is Emma Kent, Good things to her seem sent. An actress lies hidden in Vendela, She'll blossom forth like Cinderella. Helen Makra, a salesman's wife, She'll travel and travel all her life. We know where the Maloshes will land, They'll be players in a band. A pretty girl is Frieda Huss, She'll marry a driver of a bus. lf Virgil ever pulls up his anchor, He'll someday be a powerful banker. Now as jockey on the track, Robert Webb and Robert Bruggeman, And Sylvia as a 5-and-10 clerk I'lOf 0116 thing will they lick Tl-IE FUTURE IN RI-IY QBUT NOT IN RI-IYTHMD Kindness about her seems to lurk. And Ruth will run a candy store, A good companion-never a bore. And Mary Helen will write a book, If it's a flop she can always cook. And Arthur, a huckster-applesdpeaches, But then experience really teaches. Edith through life will always dance, But she will never be a free lance. Opal will marry some good man, So in school she needn't cram. Soon on the roll of statesmen's names Will appear the name ofjames. And a librarian-lvlary Coy, A little girl full of joy. A business woman is in Lil, No fields will she ever till. A soda clerk-Ruth Dohms, Happiness from her just foams. And Harold, a cleaner of the streets, A worthy heart within him beats. Ruth Durivage in the Salvation Army, But she will always look charmy. Freda Dutterer will write poems About the world's famous domes. Harold Fields, a trader of horses, One of the world's leading forces. An actress-Marian Jackson Will always manage to have her fun. Another actress4Margaret will be, And play opposite M'sieur Joel McCrea. Walter J., a cabinet maker, A man who'll never be a faker. Joyce will run a peanut stand, The best in this very land. A pianist-Ruth Mills, A player of those little trills. Sarah, a night club singer, We're sure she'll be a ringer. Vivian Motter in a machine shop She will never take a flop. And Irene as a foxy farmeress, A perfect girl, all will confess. Another farmer-Grace Nice from her toes to her face. A good cook-Mary jane, And will always be the same. A novelist too-Irving Sanks, A thinker, in a land of cranks. A baseball pitcher-Lewis Sass, And with the Tigers he has class. A Winner-Herbert Schumaker, Of life's chances he's a taker. A factory worker-Ferne Smith Meeting life with a biff. Vernice Wilhelm comes at the end, Sunday school children she will tend. So no matter what we'll ever be No better years than these four at Clay shall we ever see.

SGP!-ICDMORE CLASS I-IISTCDRY They called us green, But it remains to be seen We've become quite worldly already. With ambitions quite high We'll rise to the sky Till as seniors we'll be wise as we're steady. On September 10, 1934, a valiant crew of some one hundred twenty eager-eyed students entered the doors of Clay High School to become part of a long looked for life. The first problem of importance, that of electing oflicers to care for the very verdant-but important to us-affairs of the class, was pondered over with great ado, and accordingly, the ballots were cast, and Grover Chalet became president, Mary Ellen Nofzinger, vice-president, Lillian Kontak, keeper of the precious records, and Esther Moritz, treasurer. Throughout the year there were a few parties given during which bashfulness ebbed away and a certain amount of self-confidence came to take its place. Every- one joined one club or another. Those who had always harbored a yearning to warble sweet melodies affiliated with the glee club, Thespian minded students stormed Cap and Dagger, others aligned themselves with Friendship Clubs and the Home Economics group. Those who entertained ideas of shining in the sports world took training in basketball and baseball to their credit. A few won intra- mural letters of which they became deeply proud. So passed the first year. When school opened on their second year they were eager and not so green as returning sophomores. They greeted old friends with pleasure and added a few new ones. In the meantime, the one hundred and twenty had diminished by nineteen. This year Paul Dusseau, who had made a good reputation for himself in baseball, was elected president. Masculinity seemed to be on the upturn and the office of vice-president went likewise to a boy, Robert Sweede, whose prowess in roller skating is a thing to be envied. Esther Moritz, the only feminine oihce holder, became secretary, and Donald Shultz rounded out the executive list as treasurer. Miss Barss, Mr. Keller, and Mr. Clapper were the advisors. ln May, the class joined a group of other clubs and sponsored a roller skating party. The next delightful adventure towards which the class looks with eager and avid interest is that all engrossing one of entering into the delights of upper classmanship. With added responsibilities and renewed ambitions, the wise and steady lads and lasses of '39 look forward with hope and vigor to what the future holds for juniors. NWN Pm'fJf'11f.'

There were about 125 of us who got the boat at Clay High School. For the first week or two we got acquainted, found out what we could and could not do, und had our staterooms assigned us. We were proud to rind out that we were the biggest Freshman Class so far and for the first time two rooms were needed to take care of us. We elected Elmer Parquette to lead the class to higher standards than any class has reached so far. The following clubs claimed some of us: Dramatics, Glee, Friendship, Torch, and l'lObl'5y, We were allowed to loin the Glee Club and one of the other clubs if we wished to do so. uununnv ' Fozfrifi lwzwx Margaret Ronistadt, Hou ard Held, Marxin 'I.1qulll.1rd, YIHIUII Fling, Ernest lXllSflll-id, Earl Snyder, Norman Smith, Arlene Purser, Kathryn Kohn.

We called them intramurals, but whats the difference among friends? We elected four people representatives to the Student Council, to take care of our share of the ship's business. At the pep meetings, on the baseball diamond, and on the basketball floor, who did the cheering? Why we did, the members of the ship's passenger list. Our spirit and loyalty were shown at these meetings and games. We not only came to the games, but our pupils were represented in most of the squads. This journey on the boat, which we started in September, is by no means the whole trip. Our freshman year is only the start on a long journey. In our sophomore, junior, and senior years we will be on the same boat, but we will be respected more. Some of us will not stop then but will carry on, and advance ourselves so we can take over the control of this world. We all hope and want to be successful, but if we attain our wish we will have to work and strive to lift our standards higher. The journey will not end when we graduate three years hence. It is just starting then. Y ...QJX , 1 Sak K 4 k , X.. Q A lx I:-1' e , h X 1, W, . R ITIE ...,..,,.,. W f - flff ,.,,,,,,,, X ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,f,,f,,,,,,1,,,,,,,,f !

It is Il1cL1iITl of all ambitious people to become elected to the Honor Society. Only by Cctiselcss worlt and study do the members obtain their appointments. The Honor Society of '55-'36 is composed of nine iiiniors and eleven seniors. These members first had to qualify by getting an A or B average in their subiects and by participating in the school activities. They were then nominated by the faculty and elected by the county superintendents. The Honor Society stimulates the interest of the students in high grades, and in taking part in extra-curricular activities. The present Honor Society and Alumni who were formerly Honor Society students were entertained by the faculty, March 27. The iunior and senior members were presented with Lucas County Honor Society Certificates which are highly prized.

In May, 1935, the Student Council elected the members of the Cqwru! stall' for the following year so that Work could begin immediately at the beginning of the school year. Besides choosing the staff the Student Council also has to obtain the subscriptions and to raise the necessary funds, A few of the duties of the Cijymz! staff are the selection of an appropriate color and design for the cover of the book, the respons- ibility of having club and class pictures taken, the arrangement of the book, choosing the type face, and the writing of articles for the clubs, classes, and special features.

Group singing is a joyous experience, and many points justify its place in school. Not only does it give the student a chance to sing, but it develops an appreciation of finer music. There are fine opportunities to become thor- oughly acquainted with the classics by radio. Our club gives the talented student occa- sion to show his abilities in operettas and similar projects. All club members have chances to work together. The satisfaction of having done so to accomplish a single harmonious purpose is itself ample reward for the effort expended. Better appreciation of theater and radio programs will certainly be a result of group singing. To be able to follow the parts and thrill to the harmony of a musical presenta- tion is true living. The club contributes to health training by the teaching of correct posture. Social well being is enhanced by the contacts made at parties and meetings. G I.

Miss Hinz The Cap and Dagger Society completed, in 1936, one of the most successful years of its existence. The group continued a plan, now three years in oper- ation, of apprenticing prospective members for a period of a year. The first plan which the club carried out brought realization of a long wished-for dream to acquire costumes for Christmas plays and eliminate the vile necessity of borrowing. Materials were provided and the students made, or had made, their own costumes. The Christmas play this year was a series of short scenes relative to the Nativity and was given before the gray cyclo- rama. Changes in scenery were effected by gradations in lighting. The club, as is customary, appeared before Wynn and Clay P.T.A.'s. At Wynn, several of the members provided the programg while at Clay, a small group presented Tlw Iflfliite Plitmtwzz. While the club is not organized for social purposes, yet on two occasions members and apprentices gathered for relaxation and pleasure alone. The first party, which was private, was a very lovely Valentine tea given in the cafeteria. This party was planned and carried out by the students who were working on their memberships. It was, by far, one of the prettiest parties ever given by the group and was exceedingly well planned. The second party, which was given for members and friends, was a roller skating party.

Its chief purposes are to better home life, and develop better taste in dress, table service, and home decoration. After the club was reorganized, an initiation was held for all new mem- bers. They were required to wear to all classes costumes consisting of various kitchen utensils. The day was enjoyed by the old members at the expense of the new. At Thanksgiving time baskets were packed by the members and were distributed among the needy families of the community. The girls were rewarded for their thoughtfulness by the deep appreciation of those receiving the baskets, The social activities of the club included a Valentine Day party. The party was planned by a committee appointed by the president, which also provided refreshments and the party was greatly enjoyed by everyone. One of the most successful meetings of the year was a hobby meeting to which each member was asked to bring her favorite hobby. Many new and interesting pastimes were discovered and the girls enjoyed comparing various hobbies. A very delicious hot lunch was planned and served in the cafeteria by the girls, the proceeds of which were used to pay for their cut in the Cqyrml. This also provided some most useful and interesting experience.

Many of these new girls, realizing that they were stepping into new surroundings among strange people, and that they were a bit too inexperienced or shy to take full advantage of their opportunities, ioined the organization and have found their social pathway considerable eased. The club's main event was the entertaining ofthe Senior Friendship Club. Miss Neal, Y,W.CA. camp director who had just returned from Istanbul, Turkey, was the speaker. fVIiss Neal gave a very pleasing and interesting talk on the customs ofthe Turkish people and displayed samples of their embroidery. Among the other activities was a St. Valentines Party and the selling of pop-corn balls at a basketball game to raise money for the cut in the Cfymzl. Some ofthe members attended Pats Party, an annual Friendship Banquet and style show at the '17.W.C.A. The club also sent representatives to the Inter- Club Council meetings at the Y.W.C.A.

Nine of these graduated and four returned to carry on the duties of the organization. As new members were admitted, meetings were held in order to discuss and plan the procedure to he used in taking care of the high school noon program. The Hi-Y Cluh has hecome well known throughout the school hecause of its elliciency in handling the responsihilities which had formerly fallen upon the teachers during the noon hour. The Clay Hi-Y is a memher of the Toledo Hi-Y Council. This council holds meetings at the Y.lVl.C.A. every month and the Clay Hi-Y is represented hy two memhers whose duty is to report to their local unit, the activities of the general council. The purpose of this Hi-Y is to create, maintain, and extend throughout the school and community, high standards of Christian character. Under the supervision of Mr. Potter, these ideals have heen well exemplified hv the 1116111- hers of this unit.

The meetings are held twice a month At the beginning of the year the members of the club decided to have the meetings social and formal, respectively. Freda Dutterer was elected as program chairman for the first semester, Ferne Smith, for the last semester. A committee of two persons was elected by the program chairman to assist her with the entertainments, which consisted of playlets, humorous but worthwhile readings, hints on etiquette, and readings on various commercial topics. To help pay for the cut in the annual, Nous Autres and the Commercial Club gave a dance, The Turkey Strut which proved successful. The girls of the Commercial Club made and sold tomato soup and used this money also for the cut in the annual.

Since that time the club has continued to use the same charter that was in elTeet when it was still the Hi-Y Club. Thirty members, freshmen and sophomores, is the maximum, and the membership has remained at this mark for the past several years. The main purpose of this organization is to deal with school and social problems which confront its members throughout their school life. Every member must abide by the following: to lead a clean moral life, to be a good sport, and to have at least fair scholarship marks. Every year three committees are selected for the purpose of arranging the athletic progra ms, the entertainment and the social functions of the club. Regular meetings are held every two weeks, and once a month the club is represented at the Y.M.C.A- by two of its members. Through this means, the school club is kept abreast ofthe activities of other Toledo Torch Clubs. Mr. Clapper, who has so kindly helped the boys and their organization, is given a hearty vote of thanks, for without his help, the club could not have been the success it is.

The hero of the piece, jack Marshall, is accidentally confined in this institution. The so-called accident took place when jack, who was being madly chased by Hard-Boiled McCarferty, changes place with Reggie Mortimer in the latter's home. McCaf'ferty catches the speeding car and finds that he has the wrong person. In the meantime the over-solicitous attendants of the Sanitarium mistake Jack for Reggie and bring him protesting to the hospital. Evelyn Winslow, a patient at the Good Samaritan is confined there because she has lost her reason due to the unexplained disappearance of her sweetheart. The unfortunate girl shortly becomes the victim of thieves and her costly jewels are stolen from her. At the same time a mysterious abduction takes place in which Lois Meredith is the victim. She has been present at the Sanitarium in the capacity of dramatics director. Members of the Board of Directors institute a search for the missing girl and the missing jewels, Miss Lavelle and the hospital superintendent, Mr. Higgins, give their aid. Reggie Mortimer tells MCCHlTCfCy' that 'lack is hiding in the sanitarium. The irate and justly indignant patrolman storms in to the upset hospital soon after the theft ofthe jewels has been discovered. Complications are eventually ironed out. Edward Gordon, Evelyn's long-lost sweetheart suddenly enters into the scene and the girl recovers her mind in surprisingly short order. The chief miscreants of the play turnout to be the usual apparently ' 'innocentu parties. Much of the burden of supplying the comic relief rests on the shoulders of black Pluribus, general utility man at the hospital, and equally duslcy Pendie, personal maid to the beauteous Miss Meredith. , Sound effects were in use during various portions of the play.

Betty Ann linds out through Spud and Mickey that he has tricked her so as to get out ofa scrape he is in. Betty Ann makes him do everything she wants him to do or else she threatens to have Cal put him in the calaboose. Cal, the village constable, affords much comedy by always trying to get Polly, the cook, to marry him. Polly, however, takes it as a joke and lets him talk on. Charlie Lawrence and Nancy Prescott are an excellent example of love at tirst sight. Malvina, Spud, and Mickey provide much entertainment as they try to untangle their private love affair. Annabel, the village old maid, pursues the handsome young hero, and Mrs. Forrest, a typical villainess, is finally thwarted and the play comes to a happy ending. Other years, this page has always been devoted entirely to the play. This time, however, we have induced our very able business manager, Edwin Jaquillard, to give a resume of the extra work, beside that of the cast, connected with giving a play. The job of stage manager, as told by Edwin, has its place in a play. Not only does a play need actors but also it needs others to carry on the work behind stage. Of course, almost any one who hasn't a part in the play is willing to help in this way. The stage manager and his helpers have much of their extra time absorbed by this work. Not only do things have to be built but also careful planning is needed for the operation of the scenery. One of the strict requirements is no noise behind the curtain. And with no lights behind stage one seems to overturn many things that fall and make a noise. Of course, there is also pleasure in stage work. The last week, before the play is to be given, all the cast and helpers stay for practice and usually have a potluck supper served by the girl members. A person may not realize the value of being behind fwith sweat on your facej but from such a position the mistakes of the actors and actresses are seen and therefore it becomes an asset. Whereby we Qmeaning members of all committeesD profit by the mistakes of others. Mdlllflfl' P! t'17J'!lllf . . Roger C7'0Jh'V, . Harry Blythe- .Yuma Silffkv. .

An old gentleman named West, who was reputedly eccentric, had died twenty years before the opening of the play. His will stipulated among other things that the heir should bear the family name. A codicil warned that in the event insanity cropped up in the heir, the estate was to go to the heir whose name was sealed in an envelope. The lawyer, Crosby, signed his own death warrant, literally, when he put the third envelope in his pocket for safe-keeping. His disappearance through an unsuspected panel and the discovery of his body in still another secret passage- way caused, in mid-Victorian speech, strong men to paleeeand women to faint. After a few glimpses of an escaped maniac and the interesting discovery by the heroine of a diamond necklace in a hidden hreplace recess, the play reached a startling climax and an ending which satisfactorily cleared the mystery. A darkened stage with pale blue moon-light streaming through a partially opened window furnished an excellent setting for the exciting moments of the play. Scenery used in the second act was newly purchased by the club.

The girls interested in athletics returned last fall to find a very interesting program mapped out for their pleasure. It was soon discovered that the fall activities were to he divided into four iieldsetennis, indoor, archery, and horseshoe. Tennis enthusiasts was divided into two groups. Harriette Coy CLIP- tained one group assisted hy Lana Duhhs and Evelyn Zemnicki. Ethel Moritz led the other group with the aid of Clarahell Bricker and Margaret Nelson. The girls played often during the fall although had weather did not permit them to hnish their tournament. Our prospective group of Robin Hoods were also divided into two squads under Jewel Bricker and Marian jackson. The girls mastered the art fairly Well, showing that they possessed lirm arms and steady aims. The girls that went out for horseshoe held many tournaments, both singles and douhles, among themselves. Mr. Keller had charge of lwoth horseshoe and archery, Indoor was the drawing card this season. Ten teams were chosen, each of which elected a captain and assistants. Team nine, Dora Schaneck, Cap- tain, had the greatest percentage of games won, and team seven, under Dorothea Schmidlin took second place. Cecil liennaw, Cora White, Wilma Sass, Freda Dutterer and Dorothea Helle umpired the games. We feel that the girls ought to he commended on their fair play, good sportsmanship, and cooperation. BOYS' INTQAMURALS Not very long after school began in the fall of 1935, the proverbial f'bug began to bite and it was necessary to organize the enthusiastic sportsmen of Clay, for the success of a sport depends upon its organization. After explaining the program for intramural athletics with regard to points toward letters, selection of teams, and the division and duration of the various sports to the newcomers and to those who had forgotten, the intramural program was placed in operation. Captains and their assistants were elected by the various teams which contested in archery, indoor baseball, horseshoe, and tennis. This organization was effective until the coming of colder weather in late October, when it became necessary to resort to soccer and tap-football for those who still insisted on outdoor play. ln brief, organization of the intramurals was very good, a great amount of enjoyment was afforded to all who participated, and our system is worthy of all the praise and support that we can give it. GET-ACOUAINTED DAY Freshmen in short dresses and knickers, sophomore boys in aprons, girls in boys' coats and ties, juniors in various costumes, senior boys in girls' dresses, and girls in overalls mingled in one large group October 30, 1935, the day set aside by the Student Council for the students to take time off and get acquainted. During the morning, classes were held as usual though very little actual studying was done. The festivities began at noon with the Grand March led by Oral Corson and ,jack Stoddard. Seniors had chosen partners among themselves while juniors and sophomores drew freshmen for the event. The students were led through the halls and around the schoolhouse several times. At the end each one are lunch with his partner. During the afternoon the chief event of the day, the volley ball tourna- ment, was held, resulting in i ictory for the junior boys and the senior girls. Although this day is planned especially for freshmen, it is enjoyed by upper classmen as well. BUYS' BASKETBALL T-fi1f'ifi'f1z4'.' Edwin klaquillard, Asst.

LUCKEY The boys began the basketball season with a win over Luckey by the score of 26-14. This was the first home game, and the students were present to support their team. Luckey took the lead, and it looked as if it would continue this way. The fighting spirit arose in Clay's players, they surged ahead and kept the lead throughout the game. Oral Corson left the game in the second quarter because of illness. With every player proving that he w as worthy of the suit given him, fighting spirit was plentiful. Scoring honors for the evening went to Elmer Reihing who had a total of 10 points to his credit for his Alma Mater. ALUMNI A victory was what the students wished for and the team fulfilled that wish Wednesday, November 27, by defeating the Alumni in the final quarter by 23-22. Early in the first quarter the Alumni took the lead and at the end of the first quarter the score was 7-2. The second quarter was in favor of the Alumni too, with the score 13-5. Substitutions were numerous. In the second quarter the second team was put in and held their ground. The second half began with the varsity and more fight- ing spirit. Shots at the basket were plentiful but it was lust as if the basket had a cover over it. Suddenly the tide changed. The team began to cooperate and enlarge the score. The third quarter ended with Clay behind. The fight kept up in the fourth quarter. The team seemed to come out of a daze. 'lille gap in the score tightened. Clay took the lead and the spectators came to their feet cheering. A few minutes to play. Could Clay hold that leade They did hold that lead by the best they had. WAITE Friday, December 6, the Clay boys were the guests of Waite. Clay's attempts for a win proved unsuccessful against their host, a much larger school. Clay scored the first points against Waite's second string. The first string was then put in and the quarter ended with Clay in the lead 6-8. ln the second, third, and fourth quarters Clay dropped behind and could not check Wa1te's attack. The boys were also handicapped by Waites floor which was much larger than their own. The final score was 34-20. WALBRIDGE Saturday, December 7, the boys changed about and were hosts to Walbridge, an undefeated team. When the game was over Walbridge was still undefeated From the beginning neither the offense nor the defense was working right on Clay's team. They couldnt seem to get started. Meanwhile Walbridge began to score. They drew Clay's men toward Clay's basket and then made a long pass to one of their open men under their own basket. They worked this play throughout the whole game. The first half ended with a fairly close score of 16-12. Clay was still puzzled by Walbridge's setup and the game ended with Walbridge in the lead 35-22. LUCKEY Friday, December 13, proved a lucky day for the Clay team and an unlucky day for Luckey. The basketball floor which was much smaller than Clay's did not handicap our team at all. Clay took the lead from the first tip-off and kept it throughout the game. The team seemed to cooperate better than in previous games. Very seldom did Luckey get a chance to shoot. The score at the half w as 15-3 in favor of Clay. In the second half, Clay remained ahead the same as before but seemed to slacken in cooperation Shots were numerous but many of them hit the low' ceiling. In the last few' minutes of play the second team had a chance to show its ability and held them almost equally as well as the first team. The final score w as 28 to 13. Elmer Reihing captured the honors with a total of 10 points. The Clay Reserves won over the Luckey Reserves by the score ot 23-12. MONCLOYA Saturday, December 14, Clay was host to a strong team. Monclovii began the scoring on the first tip-off by a long pass, it maneuver which was frequent thereafter. Clay fought hard the first half and managed to take the lead for it few minutes. The half ended in atie, 16-16. The third quarter witnesses both teams about evenly matched and ended with the second tie 25-25. The fourth quarter Clay fought hard but when they did obtain the lead they could not keep it. Clay began scoring too late and the game ended 35-'57 in favor of Monclova. BOYS' BASKETBALL sr. 3oHN's December 20, 1935, the boys tackled not only a swift team but also a tricky and well drilled team. St. john's gave Clay its worst defeat of the season. The final score was 49-14. From the beginning St. johns broke through Clav's defense. Clay while on the offense very seldom broke through the defense to score. St. Johns did most of their scoring in the first quarter. The score at the half was 26-5. In the second half Clay seemed to pick up for a late start. With St. john's so far ahead, no spirit was left in the Clay team. Clay scored better through in the last half than in the first half. The St. john's Reserves won also by the score of 20-26. PEMBERVILLE December 27, 1935, Clay suffered defeat under the hands of their guest, Pemberville. The final score was 28-30 with Clay on the short end. The first half looked bad for Clay. The Pemberville quintet scored eighteen points while Clay remained behind with seven. In the second half, Clay's team seemed to click, but the points made were not enough to win the game. Clay's accurate shooting gave them 21 points to Pembervilles 12 during the last half. In the Reserve game, Clay nosed out Pemberville by 2 points. The score was 19-17 in favor of Clay. LAKE iThereQ On Friday, january 3, Clay played Lake for the first time in the season. The final score was in favor of Lake 47-27. Clay's opponents were all as tall as Clays players and some taller. From the beginning Lake took the lead. Clay had many good playing spurts but did not last long enough to alternate the score. The score at the half was in favor of Lake. The last half seemed even more defense- less than the first. Many times the players were able to sink them from the center because the floor was shorter in length than our own. The Reserves game turned out just the opposite with Clay in the lead 18-17. The center of Lake's team, while trying to get the ball under Clay's basket, hit it, the ball going through the basket for the winning points. WHITEHOUSE Friday, January 10, the team from Whitehouse came to Clay only to suffer a defeat. The final score was 3G-24. The game began with each player thinking of the rest of the team instead of only himself, meaning there was more cooperation. Clay took the lead and remained there. Both defense and offense worked well. In the first half Clay interce ted many of their opponent's passes which usually ended in a score. Elmer Reihing stood out in front of all others for honors of highest scorer on Clay's team with a total of 10 points. VOCATIONAL Friday, January 17, the Clay quintet met the Vocational cagers and lost the game by a close margin of only one field goal. The two teams showed about equal talent throughout the game, one of the best played games ever witnessed on Clay's own floor. The score was tied four different times during the game. The first quarter ended 7-7. Clay showed up very well in the first half by making 11 out of 13 free throws. Again, at the half, the scores were tied 13-13. The third quarter proved a replica of the second quarter. Toward the latter part of the game with both teams nearly equal, the spectators were standing up cheer- ing for their teams to win. The noise was so great that the referee's whistle could not be heard. The Hnal score was 25-27 in favor of Vocational. The Clay Reserves also gave up under the heavy attack of the Vocational Reserves and suffered defeat. MONCLOVA Friday, january 18, Clay lost to Monclova making the eighth game lost by Clay this season. Clay, seeking revenge for the victory of Monclova in the first game, began to show how to make the baskets count. Meanwhile Monclova was doing its best. The quarter ended 7-9 in favor of Clay. The second quarter began about the same except that Clay lost their pe and Monclova saw to it that the score was tied at 14 ali at the half. Clay began to get weaker in the third quarter while Monclova seemed to improve. The fourth quarter Clay only scored two points to Monclova's ten. Clay lost all hope and gave up under Monclova's attack. The final score was 23-35 in favor of Monclova. PEM BERVILLE Friday, january 31, the Clay quintet gave up under the crushing attack of Pemberville. The final score was 33-14. Pemberville started with speed and began to tie the Clay boys up in the first quarter. Clay just didn't seem to get started. Pemberville had 10 to Clay's 3 at the end of the first quarter. The second quarter Clay went on a spree and held Pemberville to 2 points while they chalked up 3. The third quarter reversed and Pemberville claimed 8 more points. Clay at a slow pace took only four points. The last quarter that Pemberville was really after the honors and took 13 points. Clay put up a stiff fight but Pembervilles attack was too much for them. The Reserves lost by a swamping score of 7-36 in favor Of Pemberville. WHITEHOUSE February l witnessed a loss at the hands of Whitehouse. The final score was 21-30 in favor of Whitehouse. Whitehouse took the lead over Clay who was unable to check the fast attack. Clay unable to gain the lead gave a hard try but the try came too late. The lead of Whitehouse was too large for the time remaining. In the preliminary game, the Clay Reserves nosed out the Whitehouse Reserves by 22-21. WALBRIDGE fTherei ln a return game with Walbridge, on February 11, Clay came out at the short end of the final score, 38-8. Clay, hampered by a much smaller floor, showed ability the first quarter but thereafter showed no success. Mean- while Walbridge, being accustomed to a small floor, made shots at the basket count. When Clay would get the ball usually they would step over the outside line. Shots by Clay were numerous but few were accounted for. In the preliminary boys' game, the Clay Reserves defeated the Walbridge Reserves 15-16. GENOA fliherel Friday, February 14, the Clay quintet played Genoa for the first time. Genoa, boasting several championship teams and having several varsity men from last year, defeated Clay. Genoa took the lead immediately. Clay, although accounting for some baskets, could not get the right hold on the ball. Their passing was not clicking as it should. The score, 6-22 at the half, was in favor of Genoa. At the third quarter Clay entered the game with more vigor and pep. The ball was really going places when Clay obtained it. But the Start was too late. Genoa having a high score began to falter. Just when the Clay five were ready for the winning points the game ended. The final score was 11-36. ALUMNI ln the return game, on February 21 with the Alumni, the Clay boys showed the best basketball played on Clay's floor, in spite of the fact that Clay lost 25-27 in an over- time period. The Alumni began the scoring and totaled up 5 to Clay's O. Clay soon retaliated with 6 free throws to take the QC0nti1z1zcd on Page 743 GIIQLS' BASKETBALL 'I-l7I7'uJI'0Ll'.'

GIRLS' BASKETBALL LUCKEY The first game of the season started ol-T with a bang for both the boys and girls. The girls led all during the game. Luckey's forwards were held down very well by our guards. Mary Helen Lovell, a new player on the regular squad, did well for her first game of the season. Wilma Sass, an old palyer, per- ormed as efficiently as ever. Lillian Diefenthaler, who was our sub-guard last year, sticks with her opponent which is very essential for a guard to do. All of our forwards are veteran players. Marcella Shock was clicking and she made uite a few of the baskets, especially those short, sucker shots. Sarah Momenee at the beginning ocf the game fumbled the ball but after she got started she made hne long shots. Bernice Rupp was the same old steady player. Freda Dutterer is our chief sub-man for either position, she played both guard and forward. The Hnal score was Clay 37eLuckey 19. ALUMNI Our second game was with the Alumni. Two of our players were late. Freda Dutterer went in as a substitute as did Eleanor Albertson. They both Cplayed their positions very well. During all of the game we led as in the last game. The former stu ents of Clay tried to down us but were unsuccessful because the score at the end of the game was Clay 27-eAlumni 17. WALBRIDGE Our third game was the hardest game that we played to date. All the regulars stayed in until the last quarter. With a big lead in the score, the coach then put in substitutes. Every player did good work for the team. This was the lirst game of the season that we did not have to wear stockings. Maybe this aided us to win, Mrs. Bradford's presence at the game was an added incentive. The team deserves praise for the way it worked in this game. The score was Clay 31-Walbridge 12. LUCKEY Luckey was our first game away from home but that didn't change the girls' playing a bit. The Luckey girls played a hard, rough game, on a floor which was smaller than ours. Every player got a chance to play. Marcella Shock and Sarah Momenee made 13 points each. Clay 33-Luckey 16. MONCLOVA The girls played as good a game as usual and came through with another victory. This game was similar to the Luckey game as all the subs played and our team won by the same margin. The only brilliant play was Slarcellais beautiful foul shots. Freda Dutterer played both guard and forward. Clay 30-Bionclova 16. PEMBERVILLE This was the second game away. The girls prepared for a very dillicult game, but they soon led the score and kept ahead throughout the game. The subs again got a chance to play. Clay 27-ePember- ville 9. LAKE The third game away from home turned out to be the hardest game up to date. We did not lead in the score at any time. The girls were defeated for the lirst time this season, due partly to the small floor. Clay 28-Lake 33. MONCLOVA We trailed in the first half of the game but during the last half we went around Monclova. Through the help of Bernice who did some nice shooting in the last quarter, the game ended thus: Clay 29- Monclova 16. PEMBERVILLE In this game the coach put in the second team for the first quarter thus letting Pemberville climb in the score. The regulars came in about the middle of the second quarter but they were unable to catch up in the score. Clay 17ePemberville 20. This was our second defeat of the season. WALBRIDGE At Walbridge, although the Hoof was comparatively small to ours, our girls soared on to victory. Walbridge had a shooting streak that almost upset the game but the girls came through with a score of Clay 32-Walbridge 25. GENOA At Genoa we suffered our third defeat of the season. Their floor was larger than ours and the backboards and baskets were to our disadvantage. Freda Dutterer was the high scorer of the evening for Clay. She made eight of the twelve points. Clay 12-Genoa 38. ALUMNI This game was the second with the Alumni. Both teams had one grand time. While endeavoring to plav, the Alumni and Clay girls were laughing or giggling. Miss Shultz put in several substitutes. Regardless of all the nonsense and substituting our girls came through with a victory. Clay 28- Alumni 21. SYLVANIA The game at Sylvania was a great surprise to them for we were tie with them in the first quarter, the half, and in the third quarter. In the last quarter their center forward put in the winning baskets. Sarah Momenee and Freda Dutterer crossed the line several times but to no avail. The number 13 was prominent in this game for the captain was number 13, we had room 13, there were 13 members of the squad present and it was our 13th game. Clay 31+Sylvania 35. LAKE Our game with Lake here was the most exciting game of the season. We were out for revenge and our girls showed that they really had some Hght in them. Throughout the game the playing was close. The girls were glad that they tied, especially for the senior girls. This was our last game and our first tie game ofthe season. Clay 19wLake 19. B A S E B A I. I.

I. September 15 Vocational 9 Clay 6 The lirst game of the season was certainly a close one and worth seeing. The game was played in high suspense, being tied up the last inning, six and six. Unfortunately Clay ended with the low score. There were many hard hits in this game, and Clay put in several relief pitchers without much success. As a whole this game was the best of the season. September 18 Walbridge 4 Clay 7 The Walbridge game was another close battle with the score tied up when Richard Smith hit a single that brought the winning runs in. Reihing, with four double baggers out of four times up to bat, certainly did help out in bringing up the score. This, the tirst win of the season did much to cheer up the team and give them hopes of future successes. September 24 Alumni 10 Clay 5 The Alumni were rather out of the Clay teams class, being much older and more experienced players and so, as one might expect, Clay lost this game. The graduates proved to be tremendous hitters with several three baggers and a home run to their credit. Clav scored on several hard hits and put fine competition for the older fellows. This game gave some of the second string players a chance to get in at the end when our coach could see that all was lost. October 1 Lake 0 Clay 2 The Lake game was the best played game of the year. Clay shut Lal-te out with a no-hit, no-run game. Clay made only four, safe hits, so it can be easily under- stood that it was a pitchers battle. Paul Dusseau was Clay's star. October 9 Walbridge 15 Clay 0 The next game was played on a cold, blustery day. Only freshmen and sopho- mores played for Clay which explains the unequal score. The freshman team of Clay had held Walbridge at another date, but for some reason or other they didn't click in this game, October 8 Vocational 4 Clay 5 The next game was also won by Clay by one point. It developed early in the play into an exciting game, with the score hanging in the balance. No one really knew who would Win until the very close of the contest. The Vocational boys are a fine group of hard hitters and deserve full credit for the game. I. E SEPTEMBER School begins with freshmen and teachers present. Sophomores enter today.

CAP AND DAGGEIQ QCofzrinaedD From a financial standpoint it was astonishingly successful and left the mem- bers with the pleasant realization that funds were at last available for the long-cherished plan to buy scenery. The scenery gift made by the club to the school was first shown to the public in their major production, The Car and the Candy. Pieces included double French doors done in cream and walnut with a French window similarly designed, a iireplace complete with basket and andirons, a secretary with secret panel included, drapes and curtains to match, plus smaller items such as vases, etc. Still another project which the club carried through was the establish- ment of a Play Collection in the school library. In it were placed all manner of individual play books which have been collected by the committees in search of suitable vehicles for yearly production. Technical books on make- up, acting, scenery design and constructions were also included. The club intends to enlarge this collection from time to time. All interest of club members during the year crystallized on the year's play The Car and the Cmzmy. Making their final appearance in high school draniatics were the following: Eugene Melick, Irene Pocsik, Oral Corson, Dorothy Danner, Herbert Schumaker, Robert Schumaker, Margaret jaschob, Ruth Mills, and Robert Bruggeman. Edwin Jaquillard was the only under- classman in the cast. High-lighted amongst the many preliminary activities was an experiment in mask making. The so-called monster in the play was modeled in clay. A papier-mache mask was made. BQYS' BASKETBALL lead. The ame was close every minute of lay. Each 8 , P . time one team scored the other retaliated. The regular time ended with the tie score of 24 all. ln the over-time eriod the Alumni scored two held oals to Clav's one, P 8 . winning the game. SYLV AN IA February 28, Clay played Sylvania. Sylvania took the lead and held the honor of winner through the game. Clay showed many good playing spurts but did NOK continue them. The second half, Clay showed up better than the first. The hnal score was 21-39 in Sylvania's favor. The Clay Reserves took the preliminary game by 22-21. LAKE Clay played the last game of the season with Lake on March 10. The linal store was 31-41 with Lake tive held goals ahead of Clay. Lake got an early start and tallied twelve points for the lirst and made the store 9-25 at the halt. Clax's spirit began to show in the third quartet. Clav took seven points to Lakes eleven. ln the fourth quarter, Clay held Lake to lixe points xx hile Lake gained fifteen. 1 ln the preliminaties, Clay Reserves overcame the Lake Reserves by the store of 31-17.

I llama x ff 1 WI-IAT'S NEW AT CLAY Life is ever changing, according to those learned folks who spend their waking moments in making sage observations about such things. How many of us students are aware of the changes our school has witnessed this year? First, theres the matter of NEW noses. Prominent through quantity are the freshmen probosces. Outstanding because of royal pre-eminence is that of the Potter heir, a resident of this plane since November last. NEW Little Women added to the faculty this year are Miss Barss and Miss Ray. NEW coaches are Miss Shultz and Mr. Deter. A NEW cook among the teachers is fwliss Newman. The curriculum added a NEW subject with the adoption of Junior Business Training as a freshman commercial subject. Then there's the matter of NEW cars. Overlands, Fords, Chevrolets. Speaking of new cars brings to mind NEW romances. For example, consider the interesting alignment betweeniffffand-N-M A . A perfect match if ever there was one! NEW honors and awards came to the school through the efforts of Louis Toth in speech, Elmer Reihing in athletics, and the freshman basketball squad in that sport. Added from time to time throughout the year was NEW equipment. How for- tunate we are in having the fine electric stoves, ample refrigeration, lovely stage scenery, excellent books! No wonder astrologers call '36 a lucky year! For entertainment, several NEW innovations took place. One was in the excel- lent debut which members of the French Club made into assembly work. Another was the trend toward Amateur Hour entertaining. The freshmen added their bit by producing a small and amusing paper called The Magnifier. Final mentioned names should include John Keller's NEW brown suit bought under Washingtonian influence. AFA new Annual trickffill the blanks yourself! REPRESENTATIVES-AT-LARGE Washington isn't the only place in these United States where representatives, con- gressmen, and senators congregate. Clay has an imposing collection of her own and proud indeed she is to recognize them. Consider the Senate. lt is true that there are no gray-beards amongst our Senators, but there is plenty of pulchritude to make up for the missing silver hairs. Prominent senior senators, elected to represent their brethren, included Robert Schumaker, James Carstensen, Lenore Metzger, and Helen Heckerman. Individual achievement throughout the high school courses of each of these students have been fine things to observe. The House of Representatives this year was an august and earnest body of people from many and varied pursuits. Outstanding among the scientific members were Louis Toth and Florence Schuffenecker, eminent junior chemists, Paul Wagner and Hugh Krumeich, noted physicists, and two rising lights in science whose initial work elevated them to a position high in the more general fields-George McCroskey and Anna Krivak. The Representatives welcomed to their ranks famous linguists such as Mae Carstensen, Delores Dysert, Mary Millen, and Henry Weiss, who excelled in Latin, and Dorothy Danner, Eleanor and Lillian Albertson, and Cora White whose interests lay in the tongue of the diplomats, French. Clay historians sent Robert Stevens, Clara Schumaker, Ivan Heckerman, and Marjorie Perry. The mathematicians offered Warren Johnson, Helen I-leckerman, Claribell Bricker, and Margarete Romstadt to the House so that future knotty problems could hold no terrors. Englishmen amongst the Representatives included freshman Rose Mary Powers and Audrey Shaneckg sophomore Charles Whitacre and Mary Mills, junior Harriette Coy and Ruth Som- mers, and senior veterans of three years' experience, Lenore Metzger, and Sylvia Henninger. Congressmen Cby and largey who shouldered a very real burden on their eager and more than willing shoulders were sent by stenography, bookkeeping, and legal authorities to snare a lion's share of honor for their respective districts. ln- cluded in this interesting list were Virginia Hammond, Ruth Sommers, Kathleen Sloan, Margaretjaschob, Vendela Lind and Grace Reihle, white hopes of the expect- ant stenographers. Congressmen who will, through their accountant proclivity, become watch dogs of the treasury included Freda Dutterer, Grace Reihle, and Harold Dreier. Nimble lingered artists Qtypists to youl sent Helen Makra, Muriel Harlow, Lillian Albertson, Virginia Hammond, and Ruth Sommers. Speakers of the House, Louis Toth, and Warren johnson, were backed by loyal constituents. Speaker Toth captured both money and medals in verbal skirmishes at home and abroad. Arfrfendzz: Representatives-at-large in the world of sport, Elmer Reihing, was instrumental in getting a handsome trophy for the folks back home. Freshmen basketball boys matched Reihing's trophy with an equally beautiful one of their own secured in' a contest with Lucas County schools. Do you have a major commercial problem badly in need of solving? Write your congressman todayl Do you have an academic quirk to straighten out and which seems to defy your honest elforts? Call on your senatorsf they'll help you. Ffzwzffy Azzfocgmzphf -. QI ll v 1, ,V l .
