Although we shall be leaving soon, this school will always have a place in our most treasured memories. Its influence will be with us through the years, since these halls of learning have not only been the place where we have learned our ‘‘A B C’s’”’ and higher fundamentals, but also a place where we have had many associations, where we have been glad and sad together, where we have learned to get along with one another and where we have discovered the true meaning of the word ‘‘school- Spirit.” You underclassmen will grow to understand this more and more. Make good use of your time while you are here. As seniors we say, ‘‘Keep up the traditions and preserve the goodness for which our school stands.’’ School Board J. E.

Class History HE time—a September morn in 1934. The place—L. H. S. The event—the class of 46 entered the first grade. And what a day that was. Wide-eyed and hesitant they ventured into the room and were greeted by Miss DeLong. Donna Bachtel, Helen Clinker, Mary Clinker, Pat Grannis, Marceil Jamison, Mary Jane Fetzer, Joe Reed and Duane Houston are the originals who have braved the tides and tempests of the past twelve years. Ruth Tanner and Joan Krantz entered in the second grade. Mrs. Whitney was our teacher. Miss Vanasdal was the third grade teacher. It was then that the famous Marceil Jamison—Helen Clinker feud began. What a time that was—the girls think it’s funny now—but it certainly wasn’t then. Maxine Spradling entered. In the fourth grade two men joined our class—James Underwood and Robert Sommer. Lois Indoe entered from Granger. Miss Eppley was our teacher. Miss Edwards and Miss Blust were our fifth and sixth grade teachers. Boy, were we something—we were upstairs. We ruled the roost. We were in the seventh grade, at last. After we got over being scared we began telling our friends in the grades what big-shots we were. We kept the de- tention hall teacher busy—in fact we overworked her. Mrs. Lindecamp was our home room teacher. I guess Mr. Skurvid can take his crack back about our being impossible. Look at us now! We gave a play for assembly—‘‘Pumpkin Hill Grammar School Graduation’’. The eighth grade was really something. Phyllis Yergin, Martha Hoffmeister, and Marvin Alspach came to Lodi. Miss Hazel Moore was our home room teacher. We were the most devilish class to date. Nearly everyone had to either stand in the corner, visit one of the grade rooms for a few periods, or be ushered into Mr. White’s office for the third degree. What a time! We gave our own version of ‘The Three Little Pigs’’ for assembly. The LaFayette gang entered in our Freshman year. Donn Kindig says he was scared—joke. Our class was put in two rooms. Miss Clinker had half—Mr. Lindecamp the other. Margaret Strouse reentered. The LaFayette students who still remain are—Gordon Gage, Donn Kindig, Rose Pidzyraylo, Janis Mann, Dorothy Johnson, Twila Wightman, Marion Davis, Walter Veirgutz. Jim LaFol- lette also entered.

We were robbed—ours was really the best—but the judges were blind. Our Junior year finally rolled around. We started the year with $2.87—but we were eager beavers and soon our treasury held over $300. Not bad. We ordered our class rings—and they came in our Senior year. Oh, well, they were more than worth the wait. Our play ‘‘The Uncertain Age’’ was a big success and netted us a tidy sum. (Aren’t we money-minded?) Our class ranked first in bond selling— we also had been first in our Sophomore year. George Gorey found out how to make gunpowder. He nearly blew the Chem. lab up! Rose Pidzyraylo headed our class and her hands were plenty full—banquet and all. Miss Clinker was our ad- visor. September, 1945—-we were Seniors. Lofty, dignified Seniors. It hardly seemed possible. Where had all that time gone? Ah-Government class—we had heard so much about it. But it wasn’t so bad after all— now was it? It was so much better if you could hide behind someone else during recitation. The Senior girls and the Junior boys just naturally seemed to click—. The Seniors were well represented everywhere in the school—Student Council, Basketball team, cheerleading squad, octet, sextet, detention—how did that get in here? We were really very good. Miss Sechrist will assure you that she had little or no difficulty in making us take our seats and keep quiet. Isn’t that right, Miss Sechrist? The Seniors sponsored the annual and benefited L. H. 8. by just being around. It’s been wonderful and we hate to leave—just as much as you hate to have us go. You’ll hear more from us in years to come. Who knows—one of our mem- bers may become president ? a8f Pen Prophecy HE year is 1956. Miss Sechrist is on a vacation trip on the sunny shores of «x the blue Mediterranean. This afternoon she tired of civilization and with- drew to her room to rest. She is listening to a symphony orchestra over the radio when the news comes on. The election returns have just been tabulated. Gordon (just call me Jiggs) Gage is the new president of the United States. He defeated the other candidate George Gorey, by a thin margin. (Gordon and George always were fascinated by government. They fairly ate it up.) Lois Indoe, the well-known coloratura soprano, is forced to take an extended trip to South America because of failing voeal cords. She will be accompanied by her maid, chauffeur and six dogs. Robert Sommer, crack pilot, was scheduled to leave today on a hop around the world. While hopping, he will drop supphes into the Belgian Congo for Martha Hoffmeister who has dedicated her life to doing missionary work among the natives. (Time out for a commercial) ‘‘Well-Dressed men say—’’ ‘‘Buy your hats at Houston’s Hat Haven. Special today—With every hat, two (2) pairs of cow socks—they moo you down. (laugh here). (Duane also has a trading center. He exchanges class rings every week.) ’’ To continue with the news—Here’s a fashion note. Those nationally known hat designers, Janis Mann and Dorothy Johnson, have concocted something ex- tra flavorsome. It consists of ten yards of veil upon which is a live rabbit eating a carrot. Joan Krantz and her advisor, Rose Pidzyraylo, recently returned from a speaking tour of Russia and the Balkans. Their topie of discussion was ‘‘Shall Lodi High School Have A Longer Noon Hour?’’ Clarence Cook, star of the new picture, ‘‘Strong Feathers,’’ was severely injured this morning when a camera shot him. The company doctor, Walter Viergutz, rushed to his aid but Clarence said it only tickled. Walter concluded that it was all a big mistake. Word -was received by carrier crow today that James E. Underwood, meat packing magnate, would arrive from the South Seas soon. He has spent two years in the Kaluri Islands, trying to find a native who will wash his windows for him. Phyllis Yergin, national diving champ, is not competing in the Olympics this year. At a press conference she said she had sprained her left eyelash severely. It prevents her winking at the photographers. Dr. M. Jane Fetzer, professor of buffoonerology at Lunny Uny-versity, made the statement that all is not right with the world (that indeed is a pro- found thought) and she is going to discover a curative. More power to you, Doc! The partnership of Kindig and Alspach, makers of Paper Plates for Polished People, has been broken. Alspach charges that Kindig struck him-and caused him to sprain an ankle. (Ten years don’t change a thing.) Marceil Jamison has opened a twenty room restaurant at the corner of Sunset and Vine in Hollywood. Her Special is boiled ice cream with iced Choco- late topping. The new hit show ‘‘Setset On the Water Tower’’, co-starring Margaret Strouse and Joe Reed, has completed a ten week run. The plot of the story is the eternal triangle with Mary Clinker as the other corner. Critics say that Maxine Spradling, who plays the part of Harriet, the hat check girl, is the find of the year and will soon be on top. The Ice Follies is back in Cleveland and Helen Jean Clinker (an Ohioan, by the way) is the most sensational thing on runners. She does a triple flip in the air and lands on one skate, with perfect rhythm. Marion Davis, Twila Wightman, and Martha Bowers have been appointed superintendents of the huge insane asylum near the town of Twisted. Their main job is to prevent inmates from climbing up chimneys. A message has been received from Donna Bachtel and Ruth Tanner, Artic Explorers. They say theyre cold and please send some new records. Spike Jones gets monotonous. That world-famous skier, horseman, and traveler, Pat Grannis, is now in- structing would-be skiers at St. Moritzi, Switzerland. It’s cold there, too. That’s all the news for now folks, but be sure to eat your Carpenter Corn, it builds you up! Page 17 Page 18 Senior Class Will of 1946 E the Class of 1946, being in as good mental condition as possible, and in much better temper than usual, do hereby make this last will and testament SECTION I To the school we leave, not of necessity, but of our own free will—our bless- ings and tender memories of the pleasant times spent within its halls. To the faculty, free from all inheritance, luxury, or income tax, our entire store of knowledge (except 1% which Mr. Lindecamp says we must retain.) From them it came and to them it should be returned. To Mr. Wood we bequeath all our government books (just like new) and a sense of relief that we have at last graduated. To the Juniors we leave all examination questions we have been given in the past years. The answers, never owned in entirety, have long since been mis- laid by us and are not included in this legacy. To the Sophomores we leave our example of patience. It will be useful as an only means which they can endure the Juniors! To the Freshmen we leave any over-looked cuds of gum we may have left adhering to the underside of desks, banisters, assembly seats or any likely or un- likely places. They may also have any old apple cores, crumpled notes or unfin- ished lollypops. SECTION II Marvin Alspach wills his manly physique to Junior Dague. Donna Bachtel wills her long fingernails to any girl that can get away with them in typing class. Martha Bowers wills her long blond curly hair to Emma Burkey since boys always seem to prefer blonds! Helen Clinker wills her ability to get along with sophomore boys to anyone that may profit from it. Mary Louise Clinker leaves her seat on the bus to Buddy Raisig in hopes that he likes Kathy Smith’s company. Clarence Cook wills his personalized excuse blanks to anyone who manages to miss school at least three times a week. Marion Davis leaves her job in the cafeteria to Kenneth Wood since his noons will be comparatively free next year. Mary Jane Fetzer wills her ‘‘little blue Ford’’ to Don Bloomster, so that he can tour the town on Sunday afternoons as she did. Gordon Gage wills his ability to get through government class without pre- paring but one assignment a week, to any Junior that feels the need of such a bargain. Patricia Grannis wills her ability to go whistling through the halls without being detected, to her friend, ‘‘Tubby’’ Warnes. Martha Hoffmeister wills her ability to carry on a conversation with Mr. Lindecamp to anyone that finds their last period free—he’s in his office at the time ! Duane Houston leaves his half of the ‘‘Blue Flash’’ (car) to his brother, Curly, and hopes he gets it out of the habit of automatically heading for Chatham. Lois Indoe wills her bright red coat to Mary Jane Bartholomai in hopes that Mary Jane can catch a man as she did. (At least that’s Mr. Skurvid’s theory !) Marceil Jamison wills her ability to beat the bass drum and keep time with her gum at the same time, to Frank Clover. | Dorothy Johnson leaves her ability to take shorthand at 1000 words a minute to any first year shorthand student that wants to become famous. Donn Kindig leaves his ability to get around his ‘‘old man’’ to all junior boys. They ll probably need it next year. Joan Krantz leaves her typewriter to the school (from whence it came!) with due compliments. Janis Mann wills her quietness to Bob Skimin. Rose Pidzyraylo leaves her ‘‘secret gum chewing and talking at-the-same time technique’’ to Lenore Tomes. Joe Reed leaves his front seat in governmnt class to whoever is brave enough to accept it. As an added attraction he guarantees the occupant can get a first- hand view of Mr. Wood’s ‘“‘snazzie’’ ties. Robert Sommer leaves his Sir Galahad mannerisms to Frank Szikula. Maxine Spradling wills her ability to get along with out of town boys to Delores Horner, if she needs it! Margaret Strouse wills her senior home room seat to her sister Jean. Ruth Tanner leaves her Physical Education health book to any person that will accept it and hopes they can learn as much as she forgot. Jim Underwood wills his bright sox and ties to Tom Leatherman so the girls can spot him miles off. Walter Viergutz leaves his answers to all physics problems to Bill Manke with hopes that Bill will prosper by this advantage. Twila Wightman wills her pictures of Van Johnson to Janice Carlton. Phyllis Yergin leaves her ‘‘little black book’’ in the hands of Vanda Mann, and hopes it will prove of value to her. The above stated is the Will of the Class of 1946 witnessed and signed this Ist day of May in the year 1946. (Signed) THE CLASS OF 1946 Witnesses: W. 8S.

The juniors began their successful year by immediately finding means of earning money for the great event of the year—the Jr.-Sr. Prom. They found various ways to do this. First they sold magazines, then at the fall fair they erected a basketball set-up. At the games they sold hot dogs and cokes. The juniors received their class rings before the seniors. This was probably the first time this happened in the history of the school. The junior class play, ‘‘Saturday Evening Ghost’’ was first scheduled for presentation in December, but was postponed because of illness and accidents of the cast. It was finally given on February 26. In the athletic field the juniors also shone. On the varsity they had Tom Sabo, Kenneth Wood, and Dud Fetzer. On the reserves were Bob Seifert, Jeff Mohn, Frank Szikula and Don Bloomster. The fitting climax to the successful year of the junior class was the event of all events—the Junior-Senior Prom, when the juniors played host to the de- parting seniors.

Music Lee High School is very proud of its music department this year. Every Monday the Special Chorus, a picked chorus chosen by Mrs. Hobart, met for rehearsals. Their outstanding accomplishment was the presentation of a spring cantata, seventy one pages long, entitled ‘‘ Rosamunde”’. On Tuesday of each week the orchestra met, directed by Mr. F. W. R. Behrens. Their first appearance was for the Spring Music Festival, and their last performance was given for the commencement exercises. Wednesday the glee clubs had their turn. Mrs. Mildred Hobart supervised the boys while Mrs. Evelyn Schmidt led the girls. From The Boys Glee Club was chosen a quartette consisting of Bob Seifert and Don Bloomster who sang tenor and Bob Sommer and Bob Blackburn who carried the bass. A sextet was formed from a few members of the Girls Glee Club; Marceil Jamison, and Rose Pidzy- raylo sang soprano, Pat Grannis and Mary Jane Bartholomai—second soprano, Donna Bachtel and Betty MecGarvey—alto. From both glee clubs was chosen an octet, included Marceil Jamison and Mary Jane Bartholomai—soprano, Donna Bachtel and Pat Grannis—alto, Alan Krantz and Don Bloomster—tenor, Bob Sommer and Bob Seifert—bass. All groups participated in the county ensemble contest and the Girls’ Sextet also sang for ‘‘Pie Plant Pete’s’’ program held here in the fall. On Thursday, Mr. Graff journeyed to Lodi to instruct the largest band Lodi has had for the last several years. The band elected the following officers at the beginning of the year. President, Bob Sommer, Sec. Lois Indoe, Stage Mers, Ralph Tanner, Don Houston, Librarian Mary Jane Fetzer, Student Di- rector, Bob Seifert. Their first appearance was for the Christmas program, and they also played for the Spring Music Festival. A system was set up, whereby juniors and seniors who had been in band and orchestra three years and had met all the requirements of the regulations set up by the cabinet, received letters. Outside musical groups included a saxophone octet composed of Lois Indoe, Eva Indoe, Mary. Jane Fetzer, Phyllis Esselburn, Joyce Barth, Betty Berry, Betty Young, and Laura Cash. They played for the ensemble contest and their selection was ‘‘A Perfect Day.’’ The brass sextet, including Kenneth Wood, Richard Cash, Pete Reynolds, Dick Rice, Bob Seifert, and Don Houston, played ‘‘On The Road to Mandalay.” Lodi was represented in the Medina County Symphony Orchestra this year by Bob Seifert and Lois Indoe. Six Lodi students were given the privilege of participating in the annual Messiah Chorus at Medina on December 16. They were Donna Bachtel, Marceil Jamison, Pat Grannis, Don Bloomster, Bob Sommer, and Bob Seifert. Let’s keep up the fine work, and make a bigger and better music department next year.

The members of the select group are chosen by the faculty. They are not only chosen for having grades above a ‘‘B’’ average, but they are also selected on the basis of character, service, and leader- ship. They must have attended Lodi High School one year previous to initiation. The Honor Society exploited the field of cleaning and polishing when they undertook the task of polishing the trophies and cleaning the trophy cases. Other than their regular meetings, they have gone to various outside entertainment. The initiation of members for the school year of 1945-46 was held during the month of April.

Under the supervision of Miss Clinker, it has gone far in providing programs and entertainment for the students. Many enjoyable programs were planned for this year, some of those being as follows: Harry C. White performed some remarkable feats with electricity on his program. He caught one million volts in one hand and with the other lighted various tubes and bulbs. The experiments, coupled with a good lecture, provided entertainment as well as education. Well, ‘‘pipe the bag pipes’’ here they come, it’s the ‘‘Caledonian Kilties’’. The quartet is directed by Chief W. L. Nimo, who is an authority on bag pipes. Ballads, popular program numbers, classics, and bag pipe solos by Nimo com- posed the program, which was indeed unique. Miss Jessie Rae Taylor gave impersonations of various people and char- acters in fiction and history. Two of her remarkable impersonations were Louis Pasteur and Mrs. Wiggs of the Cabbage Patch. She changed from one character to another with agility and ease right before our eyes. The Student Council has done well indeed; they deserve recognition.
