Early one September morning four years ago, a passerby might have seen a non- descript group of youngsters mounting the two steps which led to the east door of Clay High School. Today the same people are seniors, soon to go down those two steps for the last time in their high school days. We were typical freshmen coming into high school with the teachers knowing only too well what was in store for them. Looking down the long halls we were soon to learn that we would have to leave our skates at home for these were halls of learning and were not to be used for skating. We were ushered into four rooms conducted by Mr. Pyle, Mr. Hartsook, Mrs. Spears and Mr. Stevenson. We wrestled the first morn- ing with finding numbers on doors and so forth. There were one hundred and thirty-five in our freshman class. Our officers for the year were Ruth Thomas, jim Klotz, Shirley Lang, and Richard Warkentein. The Student Council members were Rita Hastings, Rollie Gahler, Kenneth Villhauer and Bill Hagen. This year was one of pure luck when it came to having mid-year exams. The cause was a seige of influenza which came as a visitor to Clay High. We have not been so fortunate as to miss exams since. Our first year we made money by selling magazines. This fund helped us to a good start and we kept up the good work, becom- ing one of the wealthiest classes in Clay High School. Again in September of the following year one hundred and twenty-nine of us returned to Clay. We never could have imagined all that was to come to us in this eventful year. We were allowed more parties and had exciting amateur programs given by the students of Bowling Green University. One of the first events was the Sophomore Halloween Party, but far more exciting was the surprise which came to us in May of our Sophomore year when it was announced that the war with Germany had ceased, many of us, of course, let our joy run away with us. Even the summer of that year was thrilling with the end of the whole war. During this year one of the most impressive assemblies was put on by the Student Councilin its presentation of the memorial plaque. Reverend Hackenberg was the chief speaker and provided inspiration to all of us. Our class officers were jim Muir, Joanne Moritz, Rita Hastings, and Donna Navarre. Our Student Council members were Emil Reisner, Joe Veselka, Alton Brown and Jim Klotz. Miss Boles, Miss Barss, Miss Bodle, and Miss Hinz were our advisors. What the junior year stands for in other schools we do not know but in Clay we think it stands for ugrindstone year. There were one hundred of us to keep our noses firmly pressed against it! Of course we had our fun, too. We ordered and received our class rings, presented a successful junior Play, gave plenty of parties to afford us good times and climaxed the year with a gala prom at the Woman's Building. It was during our junior year that our dreams for a new school and a big, beautiful football stadium began to come true. Assemblies and plans kept us in mind of it all year and the campaign for funds for the stadium kept us busy. Officers for the junior year were joe Veselka, joe Simon, Bill Kleine, and Rita Hast- ings. The Student Council members were Emil Reisner, jim Muir, Alton Brown, Karl Loveland, and Donna Navarre. Class Advisors were Miss Ray, Mr. McCabe and Mr. Greenler. V Our senior year was filled with many events beginning with a senior hay-ride and continuing with the senior play, banquet and assemblyg it, too, was climaxed again with the senior prom. 'Ah, was it all a dream or was it true? The ofiicers for the year were Karl Loveland, Emil Reisner, Rita Hastings and jim Stretchbery. The Student 'Council members were Bernard Wenzel, Alton Brown, Jim Klotz, Bill Kleine, and Ray Dippman. Of course all good things must come to an end and so with our high school days. As we hear the last word at the service which leads us out of the school which has been our favorite meetin' place for the past four years we will have a feeling of mingled emotions, an indefinable sadness, and yet a feeling of joy that part of our work is done. Yet one lesson was learned that will remain, each one's accomplishments depend upon his own efforts. And when the sun will set, as set it must, And all these verses will be dust, Among the works the world will set to fame And inscribed among the stars will be, Clay High School's name. 14- HARLON ADAMS Ili: 10111 Illljtbllf l111l1l1e1f1. 1'l1li.i 1 lvief 11111'l1et15.

Let's go to press! The newly elected president of the United States, Neal Nightingale, was inaugu- rated into oliice this ..,..,.. day of june, 1957. Chief justice Charles Pautz administered the oath of office at the exact hour of three o'clock in the morning . The President immediately announced changes in his cabinet, many of whom are well known to the former students of Clay High School, The Secretary of War, james Chikadrolf, who was the manager of Sadie's Tea Shop a few years ago, the Secretary of the Treasury, Dick Lutzmang the Secretary of Agriculture, Bill Burnside, who has recently won the title as the nation's most prosperous farmer, the Secretary of the Navy, Willias Schanke, and the Postmaster General, Milburn Baker. I leave it to you folks, what is this world coming to? And now, we switch you to Harlon Adams, who has a message for you from Ander- son, Sanderson, Henderson, and Potts, makers of Maumee Pollution hand lotion. Do your hands feel different lately? Do they look clean and well kept? Well, if so, try just one bottle of Maumee Pollution hand lotion. XVC guarantee results! If you are not satisfied with this lotion send back your half-used bottle along with your name and address, and ten cents to cover postage, to us and we will not refund your money. And now our Maumee Pollution's famous Stinky Trio , those three beautiful girls, Margie Henninger, joyce Meyers, and Nancy Bratschi, sing our jingle for the day. tTune of Archie's Little, Love Songj Maumee Pollution, that's for me, It's something like D.D.T.! And now for the sports of today! Kenneth George and james Klotz have just signed contracts with the All-American football team, the Brooklyn Dodgers . News from our local team, the Oregon Terrors, is dim tonight! They were walloped by a score of 76 - 6. The reasons given for this defeat are that Paul Kiggins fumbled all the balls, Rollie Turnow tripped over his own feet, jim Keene was carried off the Held too many times and Carl Armstrong dropped all the wobbly passes. Our Hollywood columnist, josie Patznick, reports that the great screen lover, joe Veselka, has just married the Bamboo Blonde , Shirley Susor, after his recent separa- tion from the Sarong Girl , Bonnie Lou Teems, who I might add has just eloped with the Swoon King , Bob Mathews. And now to the homefront news! A few of our prominent housewives have actually gone on a strike. They are striking for a more adequate allowance from their husbands. The strikers are Doris Bosch, Esther Eddinger, Frances Harris, Lois Menter, Marilyn Miller, Donna Navarre, joan Moritz, joan King, Nancy Thomas, and Mary Catherine Ten Eyck. The Grapevine contends that there are frequent visitors at Sunny Solitude Orphan' age these days, that answer to the names of Dick and Gordy. This orphange, as you have heard, is under the supervision of Marian Mathewson and Cathryn Klebold. The Daily Times reports that the Advice to the Lovelorn column is doing very well under the mighty pens of Dorothy Douglass and Ruth Rohr. They have mated over one thousand forlorn, dejected, and lonely old men and women. Two of our prominent Times reporters, Lucille Hurm and Irene Schrader, attended the national reporters' convention in Washington last week and were highly praised for their outstanding newspaper work by President Nightingale. Flash! Attention, drivers of the Stiff Ambulance Corps ! You are to report to headquarters at once. Information has just been received at our studios that two of your fellow drivers, Bud Wenzel and Tom Fazekas, have just been kidnapped by il patients of theirs. Come at once and prepare for a search! 24 Senior Prophecy Our local Ladies' Aid Society has just elected its new officers. jane Brundage was elected President, Marie Clifton, Vice-President, Phyllis Haack, Secretary, and jean Heintschel, Treasurer. Congratulations to these new officers! We hope they don't celebrate their election with an ice cream social again, as they did last year. They nearly poisoned the many people who attended. It is said that someone accidentally mixed a bottle of arsenic in the ice cream. They thought it was vanilla flavoring Y ! ! News from our campus is great tonight! Professor Hagedorn has just Hnished his experiment of the mighty B-Bomb and has stated that this bomb will prove a great help to society. He declares it will kill any bug in the vicinity of the bomb's explosioni A great discovery, professor I 3 I Kathryn Mahl, professor of English, has just released her new book and it promises to be a great success. The title, 'Iohn's Other Wife . Emil Reisner, professor of Civics, reports that his book which he has been working on for the past ten years is almost finished. We are still waiting, professor. Many men and women are coming back to college these days. And what for? A Master's Degree, of course! Four debuantes striving for their degrees are Anna Mae Wilson, Billy Van Gunten, Shirley Witty, and Betty Lou Sloan. Best of luck to you girls! Are you planning to attend the Policemen's Ball this year? If so, obtain your tickets this week from Sergeant Simon, Captain Reif, and Lieutenant Vilhauer. These Hatfoots will be selling tickets in Grinnel Brothers or the Boys Athletic Supply Com- pany. Hurry now before they are all sold. Elsie Solberg, Shirley Lang and joy Meeks, officers of the Y.W.C.A., are campaign- ing for donations for the new Y.W.C.A. which they are planning to build in the near future. They already have donations from Reverend Muir and Reverent Pingel, who are highly in favor of the new building. lt has just been announced that Alton Brown has won the National Trophy of the Auto Races. Congratulations, Alton! Rita Hastings of the Acme Publishing Company was voted, in a recent poll, the most popular secretary of the city. Betty Trisel was voted the most efficient bookkeeper. Miss Trisel is an employee of the ' Book of the Year Club . Our local Veterinarian, Karl Loveland, will close his office next week for a much needed rest. Dr. Loveland will be back with us next year. We hope you have a nice vacation, Dr. Wfe are fortunate in having Dr. House, world famous psychologist, join our Medical Staff at the local hospital! We hope his advice to our patients will be right and that many of them are cured soon. His assistant, Dr, joe Hollo, will do all the work. A new cab company is being organized in our city. The name of the company is Suicide Cab Company . Glen Diefenthaler was elected President, Ralph Taylor the Vice-President, Bill Schmidlin the Secretary and jim Stretchberry the Treasurer. Newly installed firemen at the Oregon Volunteer Department are Bill Kleine, Donald Cordell, Ray Dippmann, Jim Harrell, and Norman Mackey. These men were installed this morning at the Hrehouse. We also have a new branch of the City Department, called the Street Cleaners Association. Harold Russ, Richard Warkentein, Calvin Meyer and Lyle Ames are officers in this association. The Style Show recently appearing in our city was sponsored by the Singee Sewing Center . We are also told that Carole Varner designed all the clothes featured in the show. Evelyn Chikadroff, Ethel St. john, Alice Reynolds and Jewel Crews added spice to the show as models and Margie Bury furnished the music with her Hotshot Rhythm Band . All in all it was a great success. This is all the news for now, ladies and gentlemen. Listen in again next year for the next broadcast over station C-L-A-Y. This is your announcer, Clay' Hi, signing off until then, and wishing you all a good night. 25 Senior Clary WZ!!

It wasn't so very long when we were Freshmen. At that time we numbered one hundred fifty-three. The lirst day the members of the Student Council squired us around the building. Wlien we were more familiar with the schedules and other items in our daily program, we elected ofhcers. Selected as president was Maurice Vonckg vice president, Irene Meyer, secretary, Helen Browng and treasurer, Dick Freshour. Student Council representatives were Don Breese, Dick Livingston, Nancy Fox, who was replaced by Kenneth Ritter, and Patsy Lewen, suc- ceeded by Martin Freshour. In our sophomore year a mass meeting was held in the auditorium to promte the raising of funds for the lights in our football field. We, as the sophomore class, raised the largest sum. That year we were the rulers of the lower halls. Kenneth Ritter reigned supremely as president with Gene Mills as vice president, janet Hintz as secre- tary, and Dick Freshour as treasurer. Don Breese and Dick Livingston were re-elected as Student Council members with Betty Parker and George Hauter. Dances! Rings! The Prom! All these things we have had in our junior year. Ah, what a wonderful time we did have. Oh, yes, our very able Student Council mem' bers were janet Hintz, jane Smith, Betty Parker, Edith Rabbitt, Kenneth Ritter and Don Breese. Now we are lookinff forward to our senior 'ear at Cla Hi fh. If it's half as ex- zp I Y ab citing as our junior year, we will be more than satisfied.

That first day when we entered Clay High way back in the fall of 19-ii is still fresh in our minds, though. We numbered ISO and were seared to death When we had recovered from our fright, we held a meeting to elect class officers. They were: President, Donna McClintockg Vice-President, John Cavasg Secretary, George Ackerman, and the Treasurer, Dale Seckinger. After a short year of both work and play, came summer vacation and a chance to recuperate. All too soon, though, came September again with a repetition of last year. Only this time we were sophomores. Our new officers were: President, jim Liptaekg Vice-President, Roland Schumakerg Secretary, Virginia Tank, and Treasurer, George Ackerman. With these and our Student Councilmen, Nancy Hindee, Lester Meier, Tom Keckstein and Helen St. john, we progressed very well.

' 35 Freshman Clara' History Last fall one hundred and fifty-tive atoms were found floating around Clay High's halls and classrooms. Mr. Needles, Miss Boles, Mr. Schaller, and Mr. Huyck played the leading role in harnessing these little atoms. We were still in the experimental stage and, therefore, not very well developed. . The second Freshman Class meeting fsimilar to the U.N.O. Security Council in that it was held to draw up a constitution for the Freshman Class and secure peace within the portals of Clay Highj took place to elect officers: Alvin fBuddyj Barga- hiser, presidentg Don Mercer, vice-presiclentg Mary Lou Klebold, secretary, and Bonnie Sibberson, treasurer. These atoms had to have money to finance their development, so it was proposed we should sell magazines on a commission basis. The amount of money earned was three hundred and ten dollars and fifty cents. Before I go further I should mention these atoms were divided into two groups, male and female. Since the men are supposed to be superior in all respects, it wasn't unusual when they won over the females. The result was a V. Day with the males as victors. It would be difficult to control these atoms if they were in one room we were divided into four rooms. The room that sold the most subscriptions entertained the losers with a party. Those previously chosen to represent us at the Student Council fsimilar to the U.N.O. Assemblyj were janyce Blessing, Alvin Bargahiser, Neal Crews, and Jennie Szuch. The traditional Sadie Hawkins Day was our first real social adventure fit took place after the unveiling of Lena The Hyenanj. Everybody had a wonderful time. The Student Council made this possible and we thank them heartily. Well, the atoms have had their ups and downs, but it wouldn't have been interest- ing without them. Now we are ready Cas a bombj to explode into our Sophomore year. We hope it will be as packed full of fun and work as our Freshman year. 36 I A f Q 1 I 1 3 37 HHHHNIZHHUNS... 1fU5 U 3 P' Hag EJ 5 .I ga- Hui 5-fJ.E' T'F:'f,,-fi u'-+P: fr- mf-M4 . 112: W1 -at --rx'-YL 'FL' NL R-, 1: 242 em, '- w Q-'11, , ...i-.z - ' '- F'-'Q b- wk-fri-.5bwu 4.N1lJL, : -mm .

The Aeronautics Club membership really took a nosedive this year due to a few new requirements. Members had to present a stick model to join and only those who already knew how to make models were permitted into the club. The planes were displayed in the library as a part of the ye-ar's activities. They also scheduled a model meet and a contest to find the best model in each class. The purpose of the club is to get the young people of today more familiar with the fundamentals of flying and building planes so that in the coming air-age they'll be ready to fly and understand their own planes.

Dunberger Unit 557 has sent one boy from Clay High School each year with the exception of 1945 when, due to the war, no session was held. Representatives from the entire state meet in a place where the boys can be housed conveniently and where they can assemble in one group. For one week these young men are trained in the duties, privileges and responsibilities of American citizenship and are given, in a realistic manner, an opportunty to learn the problems of government. At the same time they have much fun under the guidance of trained counselors. The representative must be a junior in senior high schoolg he must be recommended by the high school principal certifying that he possesses high qualities of scholarship, moral character, an interest in government, courage, mental alertness and a willingness to take initiative and to assume responsibility. Boys from Clay High School who have been sent to Buckeye Boys' State by Dun- berger Unit S37 are as follows: Charles Wliitilcre, Berthold Fleitz, Melvin Arnold, jack Klotz, David Grove, jack Vlfidener, Robert Douglass, Richard Bourdo, james Klotz. This year a Girls' State was established at Capitol University. Nancy Fox was chosen to represent the school. Don Breese was the boy elected as a delegate to Boys' State to be held at Wittenberg University. 78 5 3 3 1 4 I I I SU 1 ki' ,. 1. N 2 1. W i W . P'- x . fs 1 .
