As this, the final step, is taken, one finds himself momen- tarily blinded by the brilliance of the opportunity for success loom- ing before him. With graduation he stands before the open gates and realizes this life is his. Heretofore it has been moulded by expert hands, with delicate lines sculptured upon itg he must now show of what quality the raw material was made. The high school student has pushed through many doorways, some in haste, some without struggle, but always those same doors have closed after passinga man who has proved himself worthy of going beyond. We believe that the doorways of Hicksville High School are symbolic of these arcades of life.

Today there is a moimting tide of sentiment in behalf of more and better educa- tion. This desire is prompted by our entrance into a new era in the history of man where intelligence must be guided by the unselfish concern for the common good. The American people have had a great faith in 'what the schools could do for the individual. Your board of education is fully aware of its great responsibility and endeavors to provide every possible opportunity for the youth of this community. A successful school program is more than the responsibility of the board of education and faculty. The responsibility and interest must be shared by all parents and citizens. The unification of the community in the school is the only way which will truly make the public school the public's school. All of our hope for the future rests upon the training and development of the children in school today. Let us dedicate ourselves to a better tomorrow through the training of our youth. Mervin B. Applegate ,gn lalarecia fion Miss Lois Smith With the opening of our junior year came our most perplexing problems. We had appreciated Lois, the secretary, but it was then we realized to what extent she had helped in our school activities. The printing of the Spoondrift made itnecessary for us to work in the office under her direction. She patiently labored with us and taughtus to use the facilities provided. At the beginning af the senior year we began to wonder how many credits we had. It was Lois who dropped her work to help us. These are a very few of the many things she has done to help us through our trying times 'without a word of thanks or appreciation from us. It is our desire that she might realize that we will always remember her efforts. .xgclminid fra fion MR. R. C. FOX Our able superintendant, Mr, Fox, received his B.S. degree in Education at Muskingum Col- lege in 1929, and in 1938 he received his M. A. degree at Ohio State University. Mr. Fox certainly shown himself capable of his many varied duties and has won a lasting place in hearts for his kind, sympathetic cooperation wise guidance in all class activities. MR. H. R. HINTON has and our and Mr. Hinton, who for the past three years has been principal of our high school, received his B.S. and M.A. degrees at 0hio State University. Besides his official duties he also finds time to teach classes, and to offer helpful guidance when- ever necessary. One of the most interesting classes in H.H.S. is Civics, where through Mr. Hinton's untiring efforts and patience, we ar e taught to think for ourselves and are prepared to take our places as the citizens of tomorrow. ic.. fy MRS. MARY CULLER The head of our commercial department is Mrs. Culler who attended Office Training School at Columbus in 1923-1924, Ohio State University in 1925, and Extension Division of Ohio University in 1943. Besides her regular duties, Mrs.Culler is Spoondrift advisor and gives unsparingly of her time and energy in working toward the success of this publication. MR. PAUL DAVIS Mr. Davis, our Senior class advisor, is one of the most popular members of the faculty. Be- sides his science and mathematics classes he also is advisor of the Hixonian which is a big job for one 'man but Mr. Davis certainly is equal to any task. He is always willing-to help us make our activities a success--you have viewed the results! He attended college at Huntington, 1922-1926 and the University of Michigan in 1932 where he re- ceived his B.S. degree. MISS VESTHER HOWENSTINE Without Miss Howenstine many of us would have gone hungry--and I do mean hungry! Through her supervision we had warm, nourishing lunches at the cafeteria. She was also in charge of all the Home Economics classes. She received her B.S. degree at Ohio State University in 1923, and attended Chicago University in 1925-1928 and Ohio State again in 1941. 'PWM Q. X 'at-zfifg, !555k...M,...S.,,., 1: jmuffg MR. BURL SNORF Our varsity basketball coach and gym class director, Mr. Snorf, after finishing his first twelve years of education in Verona, Ohio, where he was born, went to Defiance College for four years. After taking post graduate work at Defiance he joined the army and served for six months. After working one and one-half years at Convoy and one at Ney, he came to Hicksville, in 1944 and has taught and coached here two years. MISS CAROLYN MOORES Miss Moores, our Kentucky Miss, handles the English and Speech Departments. She is also Junior Class advisor and Director of all dramatic productions. The huge success of the Junior and Senior Class plays alone speaks for her abilities. Miss Moores is genuinely interested in all student activities and is never too busy to offer assistance. She received her B.L. degree at Cincinnati Con- servatory of Music, 1927-32 and her B.S. degree at Eastern Kentucky State Teachers College. MR. GERALD SAPP Mr. Sapp, after completing his elementary and secondary education in Garrett, Indiana, and then taking 4 years at Manchester College, went to Purdue University for one-half year where he secured his M.A. degree. He taught for four years at Hicksville High School before the army called him, and then came back to Hicksville to teach again, when the army discharged him after 4 years of service. Ult- Q' f acu fy Mn. o. c. RoDocKER We must have mathematics. The importance of 'math' in modern life cannot be underestimated. It is of prime importance and the teacher who handles this department is none other than Mr . Rodocker. He received his A.B. degree at Lima College and has been doing a splendid job here for many years. Mr. Rodocker will always be associated with all our happy memories of old H.H.S. MISS BERENICE SAUERS Miss Berenice Sauers, who has always been a ready friend, as well as a very efficient teacher, will never be forgotten by us Seniors. Under Miss Sauers we were given our first dose of U.S. Civics and our Eighth Grade Scholarship Test. Miss Sauers received her educationfromOhioUniversity, Miami University, Tri-State College, and received her B.S. in Education from Defiance College. MR. CARL ZIMMERMAN Music makes the world just a little bit nicer to live in. H.H.S. is very fortunate in having such an excellent music department and such an able director as Mr. Zimmerman. Mr. Zimmerman, indeed a busy man, devotes his efforts to the training of our band, chorus, and various instru- mental groups. He received his B.S. degree at Wooster College 1919-1933 and attended Kent State University 1936-1937, and American Institute of Music at New York. jgcu fy MISS LOIS HOLTMEYER Miss.Holtmeyer, who has come to H.H.S.from Fort Wayne, ably teaches Freshmen and Sophomore English and Freshmen and Sophomore Latin, as well as assists in advising the seventh grade. She also supervises the G.A.A. Miss Holtmeyer re- ceived her B.S. degree in Education from Bowling Green State University. Before coming to Hicks- ville, she taught at Hoagland junior High School in Fort Wayne. . MR. GERALD MASSIE Mr. Massie comes to our school every after- noon from Edgerton to conduct his vocational agriculture classes. -Much of his time is spent in working with F.F.A. which engages in many interesting and beneficial activities. He attended Ohio State University in 1939-1943 where he re- ceived his B.S. degree. A MRS. BLANC HE DAVIS This year the new position of visiting teacher was added to the faculty of Hicksville Schools. Mrs. Davis, who ably fills this office, visits the various class rooms so that she may watch the progress of each pupil. Then Mrs. Davis visits the homes of the pupils who need special attenf tion and thoroughly discusses the children with their parents. Mrs. Davis received her A.B. de- gree at Northland College in Ashland, Wisconsin, and later attended the University of Wisconsin and the University of Colorado. tr . ,. ,. ,,,l,f, Mr. Don Evans: Grades 5 Sz 63 Hicksville High Schoolg Bluffton Collegeg Defiance College, Bowl- ing Green State University.

CLASS FLOWER - Wine Carnation CLASS COLORS - Wine and Gray At last we are graduating and can call ourselves the mighty Seniors. We have worked willfully for twelve long years and are finally reaping the fruits of our labors, the joys of graduating from high school. Perhaps the most memorable of all have been the last six years. Thinking we were ubig stuff, we began the seventh grade as being the second class to start in the new building. In the eighth grade we took the state test and came out on top with 33'Z, of our class being in the upper 1096 of the state. Our Freshmen year was begun by sponsoring a dance which put the first money into the class treasury. The class officers for that year were: Fred Malott, presi- dent, jo Ann Beerbower, vice-president, and Melba Deardorf, secretary-treasurer. We began our Sophomore year by electing our leaders with Rosalyn Daub as presi- dent, Fred Malott as vice-president, and Io Ann Beerbower as secretary-treasurer. The Latin students of our class were instrumental in the organizing of a Latin Club which held several parties. The highlight of the year was the participation of many members of the class in the Junior-Senior Banquet. Our first project of our Junior year was the production of Don't Take My Penny. Under the direction of Miss Althaus, we made this play a great success. This at last was the year when we could write what we wanted in the Spoondrift. Our able editors, Io Ami Beerbower and Dick Beree were assisted by nearly every member of the class in the publishing of the fifteen issues. The gala event of the year was the junior-Senior Banquet. The whole class worked for weeks in advance on decorations and plans for entertainment. When the evening finally came, every junior was well repaid for his efforts by the great success. That year we elected Max Grover as president, David Van Horn as vice-president, Willadean Turner as secretary, and Maurine Tuttle as treasurer. Finally we have come to the last chapter of our high school history. We have chosen Grover Culler as president, Fred Malott as vice-president, Willadean Turner as secretary, and Maribeth Mentzer as treasurer to lead us through this year. We are sponsoring stands at the basketball games and are publishing and selling programs for score-keeping. Our big project for the year, the Senior Carnival, was held'on November 30. The coronation was the highspot of the evening and was followed with a complete midway and side shows in the old building and later by a danceinthegym- nasium. Now we are beginning the huge task of publishing the Hixonian. This brings us to the realization that our school days are soon to be over and we'1l be saying goodbye to H.H.S.

Cid 55 pI'0l9L QC? Greetings from the Golden Age of 1956! The world is a glorious haze of new modes of transportation and work saving machines. Last night I visited one of the new ultra-modern theaters, and had an experience that inspired me to look up the members of the good old class of '46, Ifound the theater'to be owned and managed by one of them, Pete Culler, of all people. Starring in the glorious technicolor picture was Maribeth Mentzer in her current hit, 'Dolly with a mmpie in her chin. ' Having seen these two so successful, I prepared my jet-propelled plane for a 'world- wide journey, and am now ready to start. Won't you join me? First, let us drop in on New York. As we walk down Fifth Avenue we meet a strikingly blonde Bowers Model, Why, it's Jo Ann Beerbower. She informs us that she has won national fame for her absurd and daring manners of dress, and has revolutionized the fashion world. On over to Buffalo we fly low over the falls and catch our breath as none other than the inimitable Carol Campbell attempts to cross the falls on a tightrope. She successfully reaches her goal, and, relieved, we pass on. From there we travel on down to Pittsburgh, and are astonished to find Bob Shafer as a steel magnate. He owns the largest factory in that famous city, and has a medal for the most efficient management. just the same old Bob! In Baltimore we find the people cheering a famous artist who is appearing in their city. We're proud to know the celebrity as Genevieve Hauter. On down to Atlantic City, we are just in time to see Margaret Panasuk chosen as Miss America. She will go on tour of every city in the nation, and a statue of her will be put in New York harbor, with the Statue of Liberty. Let us go on to Miami, where we will leave our plane at the airport. As we start down the street, we see a crowd of excited girls pursuing their favorite crooner. We force our way to the front of the throng, and are indeed startled to see Dick Beree in full flight. We hail him and he breathlessly tells us that he is late for a personal appearance. For a rest from our speedy plane let us board one of those 1l1X111'y liners and go to South America, shall we? At the water-front we are greeted by the liner's Captain and Chief Stewardess, Omar Arrants and Betty Neidhardt. So far, this seems to be a worthwhile trip. Our ship docks at the Brazilian city of Rio de Janeiro. Everyone is excited over the bull-fight for which we seem to be just in time. Bill Kuhl meets our startled eyes as bull- fighter. He tells us that he has an advantage over the bull, he just ducks and goes right be- tween the bull's legs, which of course bewilders the beast. We visit a coffee plantation, which we find to be owned by Bruce Doub. Ieanne Laub is employed as his secretary, and she finds the business more complicated than she thought, as she must keep a record of the number of beans exported each day. We go back to our liner, and are prepared for a restful trip back to the states, but lo and behold, we meet David Van Horn, who is an absent minded professor at Harvard. He has just completed a survey of Brazil, and is preparing a series of lectures to be given in America. Guess what he reveals. His students call him George! Our liner ports at Vera Cruz, and we are given three hours to view the city. We stop at the enchanting Tampico restaurant. As foreign visitors we are greeted by the owner, Max Ginther. We eat a delicious Mexican dinner and enjoy the music of the all girl orchestra. Then, to om' amazement, Vyrle Hinsch is introduced as a guest singer, and she entrances the Mexicans with her blond hair. From Vera Cruz we sail on across the Gulf of Miami and there return to our plane. We travel on north till we come to Chattanooga where we find Fred Malott as ubig boss' of the Chattanooga-Choo-Choo. We stop next at Nashville where Frances Kees is a nationally famous hill-billy-hit-song singer. She is working with Roy Acuff. M In Louisville, Kentucky, Max Peters is the owner of a tobacco company. His brand is Sir Max. ' As we continue north let us first swoop low over good old Hicksville. There we see a mother madly dashing down High Street after her run-away children. After taking our plane to the airport we return to offer our assistance, and behold we find the distressed mother to be none other than Maurine Tuttle. A rodeo is scheduled to appear in Hicksville on this day, so let us attend. As we take om' seats in the familiar old grandstand, the governor of Ohio is introduced, and he meets our startled eyes as Bill Easterly. He makes his speech on the subject 'Are American Rodeos Degeneratlng? Then, as the rodeo proceeds we recognize their star performer as Willadean Turner of -all people. From there we pick up our plane and start west. We fly low over, the neighboring farms and decide to land and visit a dairy farm. There we are amused to find Luella Scott trying to learn the intricacies of a milking machine. Next we stop in Ft. Wayne, and visit the business college. We are introduced to the dean who proves to be none other than Dorothea Jones. From there we set our course for Chicago. We are in time to drop in on a symphony which Rosalyn Daub is conducting. She has written her own symphony which she calls Sun- light Sonata. y Walking down the streets of Chicago, after the delightful symphony concert, we notice the lovely photography studios of Dick Ray. Still at the old hobby, I guess! We are forced to land in the Rocky Mountains as we continue.. west, and wholcomes to our assistance but Lynn Smith in person. He informs us that he is Chief of the Forest Rangers in the Rockies. For the sake of a new experience, we stop at Reno, and are amazed to meet 'Max Grover coming down the street. We stop to offer our sympathy to his bad luck, but he quickly ex- plains that he and Mrs. Grover are on splendid terms, but that he works here as a lawyer. We notice Virginia Elliott's dancing school and also that Helen Gessner is employed as her secretary. Wish we had time to visit and learn the latest steps, but Reno is bad for the reputation, so we decide to travel nn. Wavering from our course a little, we start south. We stop in Arizona, and visit a ranch. What good luck! We find Bob Evans as the rough and tumble owner and manager of the Bar X, After a quick ride we board our plane again and start for San.Francisco. Once in San Francisco we see a little hut built out close to the water front, facing the Golden Gate. We stop to investigate, hoping to find a hermit, but of all people we find Dot Donaldson, who is, as usual, waiting for the Navy to port. Coming down the street we see a very smart-looking colonel, and after inquiring we find it to be Douglas Miller. We then hurry to meet him and find that he likes the army well and intends to devote his life to it. We swoop out across the Pacific Ocean, and in a little while we find ourselves over Hawaii. The temptation is too great, so we land. We stop at a charming cottage where we find'Melba Deardorf teaching a small girl to do the hula, American style. She informs us that Darrell Heffelfinger owns a pineapple factory nearby, so let us go over to visit him. He owns the largest factory of this kind in the world, and says he owes his success to the fact that he keeps his wife and children busy at work for him, thus saving a lot of Wages. From here we go on across the ocean to China. In Tsingto we see a charming place, The American Shoppe.' For a sight of the good old States again we drop in and nearly drop again to find that Barbara Blosser is the owner of this and several other shops of its kind all over China. It seems to be a very successful chain. While we are in the shop Paul Jones saunters in. Apparently he too is looking for a sight that will remind him of home. He is in China as the American Ambassador to that country. I guess that concludes our search for the old class, but it was very enjoyable, wasn't it? Everyone seems extremely successful and happy, so now in om' own success and peacefulhiess let us go back to our own homes. Good Bye!

L! all ef, unior C ada ajvhaforg Way back in 1941, there entered into the portals of the new high school building a group of frightened, but anxious, youngsters. We were frightened, because of the newness of the building, and the thought of going to school and studying with the older students, and anxious because we were eager to get started and earn our niche in the H. H S. 'Hall of Fame. We managed to finish out the year however, and came bouncing back the next year, full of vim, vigor, and vitality. In 1943, we moved up another notch, and could really call ourselves high school students. We chose, as our officers for our initial year, Waldo Keller, president, Bill Lower, vice-president, Jeanne Lehman, secretary, and Micheal Hicov, treasurer. Two members of our class were chosen as cheer- leaders, Eudora Reitz, and Barbara Koch. We were also well represented in the basketball squad by Waldo Keller and jack Straley, who showed the mak- ings of being valuable assets to our school. In 1944, we came back-to school, more eager than ever for school to begin. For this year, Waldo Keller was chosen as president, Bob Panasuk, as vice-president, Pat Miller as secretary, and Martha Keller as treasurer. Eudora and Barbara were back again as cheerleaders. Some of the boys made great progress in basketball. The pictures for the 1945 Hixonian were taken, in part, by three of om' classmates. We had done little to really distinguish ourselves that year, but we were always looking forward. Full of high hopes, we entered H. H. S. again in 1945. We startedthe year with a bang by producing our class play, Peck's' Bad Boy, which was such a success that we were called to do it again the following week. Now we can really stick out our chests! Also this year, we are trying our hand at journalism by putting out the Spoondrift. The class colors, blue and gold, the class motto, B2 Qbe squarel, and the class flower, American Beauty rose, were also chosen this year. Bill Lower was chosen president, 'Mickey Zimmerman, vice-president, Eleanor Hauter, secretary, and Martha Keller, treasurer. This year we hope to rent a part of that niche to which refer- ence was previously made. Also, we have a chance of earning money, by holding our stands at basketball games, etc. Next year, as Seniors, we hope to burn the mortage on that niche, and really take it over as a class that has earned it.

West I. Weeks aggolallomore C4144 ,Nia for? September 5, 1942, a group of sixty-eight, bashful, wide4eyed Seventh Graders entered junior High. The first few weeks we delighted in telling each other how they had us going all over the building to our classes, and how we would have run it if we had been at the head of the whole thing. Someone from the elementary building would mention something to us about their hard arithmetic, English, or spelling and we would answer with some- thing like this, 'Oh yeah, just wait 'til you get in the seventh grade and have some of the problems we have! Nine out of every ten of us were too bashful to even go to the pencil sharpener or waste basket! Slowly but surely, one by one, we adjusted ourselves to the curriculum of the new building. We elected Ora Miller, Ir. as president, Floyd Kimple as vice-presi- dent, and Carol jean Sackrider as secretary-treasurer. Our supervisors were Mrs. Culler and Mr. Kimkle, We had two class parties which in- cluded recreation, dancing, and refreshments. In 1944, as Eighth Graders, this year a total of fifty-nine, we could look at the Seventh Graders and know just about how they felt. Most of us, however, offered no sympathy because we were agrown up Eighth Graders and we were once in the Seventh Grade ourselves, so if we got through it, why cou1dn't they? We had Miss Sauers and Mr. Rodocker as supervisors. Our class elected Betty Tomlinson as president, Patricia Wyckoff as vice- president, and Deloy Preston as secretary-treasurer. Our class parties were practically the same as in the seventh grade. As Freshmen, some of our total fifty-eight felt as if we were being shoved around by the Sophomores, Juniors, and Seniors, so to make up for the feeling we told everyone about our tough algebra equations, forgetting that all of them had had algebra themselves. Our president was Ora Miller, 1r.gvice-president, Naomi Lantzg and secretary-treasurer, Anna Neidhardt, and Mr. Snorf our supervisor. Some of our class were active members of the band, mixed chorus, G.A.A. and F.F.A. One of our class parties was held in the gymnasium, one a skating party at the Sherwood rink, and the other was at the Roadside Park. This year fifty-six enrolled in the Sophomore class. We chose as our class colors, green and white, class flower, white carnation, and Life is but a picture, so paint it well' as our class motto. Dick Moore was elected as president, Bill Cleland, vice-president, and Anna Neidhardt as secretary-treasurer and Mrs. Culler is our advisor. We are looking for- ward to several swell class parties, one of which has been planned for November 16. Now, in the years 1945-46, we, the Sophomore class, can look back on those so-called 'dreadful' years and realize that we had quite a bit of fun after all.

The Coronation, Friday night, November 30, 1945, was a formal and very gala event. The ceremony opened with a processional led by Rosalyn Daub and Dick Beree whose attendants were Barbara Hinton and Merideth Little. Twelve members of the Senior Class and the crown mistress, jo Ann Beerbower, followed. Rosalyn was crowned Queen Rosalyn I, and Dick, King Dick I, to reign over the High School throughout the school year. The Crown Mistress then bestowed upon Margaret Panasuk and Fred Malott the honor of having the Best Personalities. Dorothea Jones and Grover Culler were chosen Most Likely to Succeed while to Jeanne Laub and David Van Horn went the coveted honors of Most Studious Girl and Boy. Most Athletic were Maurine Tuttle and Bruce Doub. Carol Campbell and William Kuhl were chosen as Wittiest Girl and Boy.

The members were elected by the student body to help govern the school. Each member serves a term of one year, with the Senior representatives becoming honorary mem- bers the last half of the year. The Council was the sponsor of numerous activities during the year. They in- augurated the program of having different speakers at assembly meetings, had a t1u'key raffle in November, bought records for the juke box, finished paying for the juke box and the fixing of it, and paid for the cheer leaders' uniforms. Under the guidance of President, Fred Malottg Vice President, Bill McCa1lag Secretary-Treasurer, IoAnn Cromwell, it proved to be a very successful year. ommercia! u 6 lain ce This year the Commercial Club set a new precedent by sponsoring a formal program dance.

A large audience was in attendance on both evenings to witness twelve seniors literally romp through three acts of heart-warm- ing comedy. The plot of the play was centered around the 'trials and tribulations of a flighty American family undergoing ,a series of emotional explosions, romantic mis- understandings, thwarted ambitions, and violent bickerings. Those taking part in the play were: Mary Hutchinson, Melba Deardorfg Lucy Davis, Margaret Panasuk, joe Hutchinson, Fred Malottg Eileen Hutchinson, Dorothea Ionesg Paul Hutchinson, Max Ginther, Kay Hutchinson, Maribeth Mentzer, Ralph Hutchinson, David Van Horn, Lorraine Roberts, Rosalyn Daubg Joyce Wells, Willadean Turner, Davey Burnside, Max Peters, Minerva, Carol Campbell, and Mr. Jackson, William Easterly.

PEcK's BAD Boy t The Junior Class presented a three-act farce comedy, Peelis Bad Boy by Charles George, on November 9 to a packed house. So well was this play received by the public that a second performance was given before another large house on November 16. The story was concerned with the pranks Henry Peck, Jr., aided by his two pals, played on the entire Peck household, including the guests. How the terrible trio got revenge on Heru'y's father for marrying Junior's stepmother, Hannah, how they got even with Mrs. Peck for being so ubossy' and how they finally brought the two lovers together made hilarious comedy throughout the play.

The Girls' Athletic Association was organized in September under the super- vision of Miss Lois Holtmeyer. The main purpose of this organization is to pro- vide some recreation for the girls of our high school. This organization is also to teach sportsmanship and co-operation among the girls. Forty girls joined to take part in activities which included basketball, table- tennis, hiking, bowling, badminton, and bicycling. The meetings were held every other Mnnday night in the gymnasium. The officers were: Maurine Tuttle, president, Margaret Panasuk, vice-president, and Betty Neidhardt, secretary-treasurer.

Sponsored by Fuller Oil Company ea Jon, lljarriify Although the Aces didn't have an excellent record for their regular season they did play some very good and some very exciting games. No less than eleven games were won or lost by a five or less point margin. To pick the most outstanding game would be a hard task but a majority vote would, probably find the Defiance encounter at the top of the list. Any number of contests afforded plenty excitement as a glance at the scores would readily indicate. The Christmas Tournament played in Hicksville's gym brought something new in these parts as lfar as basketball goes and crowned Farmer its first champion. Farmer defeated Hicksville in the finals by a two point margin. The Aces entered the finals by defeating a persistent Edgerton five the previous night. Sherwood was the fourth team and they were eliminated by Farmer in the first round. The offensive power of the Aces could be and was carried by various mem- bers. The most consistent man being jones, although all of the first men did, dur- ing the season, lead their team in scoring. Any good basketball fan will tell you that basketball isn't all scoring. A team has to play defense, too. In this depart- ment the Aces were especially effective having Keller, Culler, and Cleland to cope with either speed, height or unusual ability. Cleland and Culler also did some ex- cellent rebounding. Ginther, an early season regular, did some fine relief work as did Kuhl and Arrants. eff 211125 The Reserve squad under the able guidance of Mike Sapp again turned in a year of superb performances. Their greatest accomplishment, without a doubt, was the defeat they handed the Defiance Reserve squad. This was the first defeat the Class A quintet had suffered this season. This, of course, was not the only good contest as they turned in a creditable performance whenever and wherever called upon. . The second team was without its usual help from the varsity as both squads carried a full complement of p1ayers.'

UNDEAFEATED The Hicksville Midgets when through their five game season without being beaten. They rand over all their opposition with none of their contests being close. So Hicksville High can look forward to a brighter fut1u'e went these players come into high school! Sponsored by the Hicksville Greenhouse lotta! With the end of the war and a prospective return to normal, Hicksville again took up the grand old game of football. The Aces took on only a practice season, and Mike Sapp was again back as coach. The opposition was afforded by the reserve teams .of Garrett, Auburn, and Defiance and one encounter with Payne, who is also just resuming football. Since the object of these games was to build a team for next year no Seniors were included in the squad. Nevertheless some thirty boys came out for practice and did Hicksville mighty proud as they defeated both Garrett and Auburn and gave Defiance and Payne a good run for their money. gadegaf 1 94 5 Under the able leadership of Burl Snorf, baseball is being resumed at H.H.S. As any newcomer, the team has had a tough time and has yet to win a game. They have, however, been improving greatly, offering increasingly tougher opposition for their opponents. In the spring baseball tournament, held at Defiance, the Aces played Lyons, win- ner of the Fulton County tournament. Because Defiance's diamond was muddy, the game was held at Jewell. The Lyons' club provided the needed strength both at the mound and the plate and thus ended Hicksville's tournament hopes and another year of baseball. ' ja. There have been several track enthusiasts in the high school for the .past four years but the spring of '45 saw the first supervised track team. Under the guidance of Burl Snorf, the boys entered one meet, a triangular affair with Butler and Water- loo. As expected the Aces ended in third place, but they did collect 7 points. They managed these on third places in the pble vault, shot put, and half mile relay, and a second in the 440 dash. The most promising Hicksville participants, considering the lack of practice and experience, were two boys, then Sophomores, Jack Straley and Waldo Keller. These two were especially effective in the field eventsg jack in the shot put and Waldo in the pole vault.
