Howard Palmer. We wish to express our gratitude to our valued administrator for all he has done for us during the time he has spent in Maumee High School. Having taken the job in 1941, Mr. Palmer had been our principal for two and a half years when he was called to report at Fort Schuyler, New York, on December 28, 1943, as lieutenant U. g.l in the Navy. In these years he has fully earned the respect and admiration of his students. Mr. Palmer was bom in Seaman, Ohio, March 4, 1909. He received his A.B. degree from Wilmington College and his MA. from Ohio State. One can get some idea of Mr. Pa1mer's versatility when one leams the var- ied list of subjects he has taught. These in- clude physical education, industrial arts, his- tory, English, math, science, and geography. He has even directed plays. Surprisingly enough, Mr. Palmer does all these things well and he continually amazed his American Problems classes with his vast store of ex- periences. He belongs to the Chi Beta Phi, a national honorary scientific fraternity as well as the social fratemity, Alpha Tau Epsilon. 4 TABLE UF IIUNTENTS Dedication ..... Faculty .... Students .....

HAROLD EIBLING Mr. Eibling, superintendent of the Maumee Public Schools for the past eight years ,maintains his office at the high school. Mr. Eibling was born at Dola, Ohio, and .was Grad- uated from Ohio Northern University. He has done graduate work in four universities and expects to receive his doctor's degree soon. Because of his deep, resonant voice and natural abil- ity as a public speaker, Mr. Eibling often is called upon to participate in high school assemblies. Through his eight years of service here, Mr. Eibling has become an integral part of the school system. His friendliness and capability are much appreciated by the student body. PHYLLIS SHEPERD Phyllis Sheperd, a graduate of M.H.S. in 1939, has been a secretary in the school office for the past five years. Phyllis was the principal's secretary for her first three years here, but she became Mr. Eibling's secretary two years ago. Mr. Eibling rates her as the most competent secretary he has ever had, and students will vouch for Phyllis as an under- standing person. Her calmness would be an asset in any high school office. FRANCES BAUERSCHMIDT Frances Bauerschmidt, a graduate of Maumee High School in 1943, was appointed secretary to Mr. O'Neill during the early part of February. She filled her varied job ca abl for the P Y remainder of the school year. fllll I I MR. IACK O'NEILL After Mr. Palmer's induction into the Navy at semester, Mr. O'Neill became the high school principal. Mr. O'Neill was born in Chicago and was educated at Northwestern Gklahoma State Teachers' College and De Paul University. As do most teachers, Mr. O'Neill is continuing his graduate work with a doctor's degree his object. Besides performing the regular duties of a high school principal, Mr. O'Neill teaches the senior Ameri- can Problems classes and acts as advisor to the Student Congress. Mr. O'Neill has proved to be a very helpful and efficient principal, much respected by the student body. 'I MISS IEAN PELLENS From what she says when one asks her, Miss Pellens has had one of the dullest, most ordinary ot lives. On the other hand from what her students hear in class it has been exactly the opposite. Most of her life has been spent in Cincinnati, but tour years were spent in acquiring a B.A. degree at Western College in Oxford, Ohio. When Miss Pellens is mentioned the seniors naturally think of creative Writing, and the juniors and sophomores think of vocabulary Study or perhaps of transitive verbs-without. No matter what else they think of they are bound to remember pleasantly this teacher who has such a hard time keeping a straight face in her classes. MRS. IANE WILSON That charming smile in the upper hall is Mrs. Wilson's, a newcomer to our school. Mrs. Wilson teaches seventh and eighth grade English and literature, and in these classes she is trying to improve her pupils' reading as well as their grammar fundamentals. With her seventh and eighth graders she has started a Dramatics Club which Successfully gave The Little Red Schoolhouse this past winter. Mrs. Wilson is also advisor for the Girl Reserves and has been trying to introduce the spark of lite to that rather somnolent organization. She was born in Wilmington, Ohio, and went to Wilmington College. She graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Edu- cation. MISS ARDAH BROWN Ardah A. Brown is a native of Bowling Green, Ohio, with whose stamping grounds we are all familiar. She attended the local high school and then proceeded to Ohio Wesleyan University in Delaware, Ohio, where she earned her Bachelor of Arts de- gree. However, Miss Brown is a firm believ- er in doing things thoroughly, so she re- turned to B.G. and did graduate work for her Master's degree at the State University there. Miss Brown's Latin classes concentrate their efforts on grammatical foundations which always prove to be very valuable to them, although they never realize it at the time. The second year classes have made notebook projects consisting of classical references they find in everday reading. The first year classes make such art ob- jects as calendars and valentines, and thus utilize some of their newly acquired know- ledge. MRS. LUCILLE GREEN Mrs. Lucille Green, new to our school this year, was born in Toledo, cmd was graduat- ed from Scott High School. She received her degree from Denison and did post- graduate work at Toledo University and Michigan University. She teaches freshman and sophomore English and first and second year Spanish. Her Spanish classes are small and very in- formal. She may often be heard addressing her first year class as gir1s and Norman. Mrs. Green believes the purpose of teach- ing literature is to help develop in the student a taste for good literature. As for grammar, well, it is just a social necessity. In her spare time, Mrs. Green conducts the detention hall. She introduced a new punishment- -no talking or studying in de tention hall. This method helps reduce the number of servers. MRS. RUTH BROWN Mrs. Brown is a native of Toledo and a grad- uate of Toledo University. She was gradu- ated with a Bachelor of Science Degree in Education and has been here in Maumee three years. ln her classes, Mrs. Brown is trying to provide a good foundation for her Qirls by stressing the practical side rather than the theoretical. Mrs. Brown has inaugurated the Home Nursing Course in our high school and next year intends to follow the Bed Cross Nutri- tion Course. While these are very worth- while at any time, during this war they are especially commendable. Congratulations, Mrs. Brown. MR. ELDON COX lf you have ever noticed a bunch of fellows gathered together telling jokes, the center of attraction might be Mr. Cox, our new in- dustrial arts teacher. Besides having mas- tered this art, for a sideline he also coaches junior high football and basketball, and B- squad basketball. The success of the B- squad this year was a result of his good nature and fine spirit. He is always willing to bet on basketball shots and incidentally does rather well for himself. Mr. Cox received his education at Bowling Green University. His home town is Weston, Ohio, and he has a family of three: mamma, papa, and a little one. His pet peeve seems to be basketball players who have drib- blitisf' Sounds contagious. MISS ANNE L. PHILLIPS Miss Anne L. Phillips is a newcomer as of September, 1943. Iudging from her birth- place, which is Denver, Colorado, she is a native Westerner, but l guess the cowboys were too much for her and she came east. Miss Phillips got the general idea of readin', 'riting and 'rithmetic at Weston High School in Weston, Ohio. From there, Bowling Green State University claimed her, and after a certain length of time agreed to give her a degree of Bachelor of Science. But that wasn't enough, so she settled in Ann Arbor, at the University of Michigan and came out with a Master of Arts degree. Miss Phillips' field is commercial, which includes bookkeeping, commercial law, in- surance and general business. Included in these are such things as budgeting and in- terest computation. Miss Phillips explains that a commercial course in high school, is more or less an exploratory course, designed to give the pupils an insight as to what business is like. MRS. ROSALIE HOUSEL Mrs. Rosalie Housel was born in Toledo in 1920. She was graduated from De Vilbiss High School and received her Bachelor of Education degree from Toledo University. At Maumee High, Mrs. Housel teaches typing, shorthand and office practice. She sends for the international Gregg shorthand and typing awards for the most skilled stu- dents in each field. Mrs. Housel advises the Ioumalism Club, which publishes the Static monthly, and the Reflector annually. As a field trip this winter, Mrs. Housel took the Static staff tof twenty-fivel to the Blade building where the interested stu- dents saw every step in the process of pub- lishing a large newspaper. By the way, Mrs. Housel has only one ambition-to have a new mimeograph machine. H6 MISS MARGARET O'DWYER Miss Margaret O'Dwyer, Maumee High's new history teacher, was born in Toledo. She attended Notre Dame Academy, was grad- uated from De Sales and received her Mas- ter's Degree from the Catholic University of America. Miss O'Dwyer teaches eighth grade his- tory, world history and American history. She always looks worn out after the eighth grade classes, but her appearance after a sessicn with the juniors is almost indescrib- able- ea look of sort of hopeless resignation. The sophomores in World history made quite a few maps this year, as well as a very colorful time chart to hang on the wall. Miss O'Dwyer is also the very competent advisor of the Student Court. 4K MR. IACK O'NEILL Mr. O'Neill, principal, teachers the two senior American Problems classes. In these classes, the affairs of the United States are discussed and its problems are solved . . . sometimes! More often, violent arguments occur and each member of the class leaves with the opinion he held when he came. Regardless of the many seemingly futile arguments, the class did accomplish at least one worth while thing--it taught its members to think before they spoke. After semester each member of the class was obliged to speak for at least half a period concerning some phase of American life. Both listening to and delivering these talks was an ordeal, but Mr. O'Neill felt the ordeal profitable. MR. ROBERT BAKER That man who stands at his door between classes stopping dash runners on the second floor, is Mr. Robert Baker. Formerly the junior high math teacher, Mr. Baker was moved up- stairs when Mr. WVebb left, as the physics and general science teacher. He now teach- es pre-flight aeronautics and pre-induction along with these original subjects and con- sequently hasn't much spare time. Mr. Baker is also head of the Visual Education Club, Hi-Y advisor, and the Honor Society Trea- surer. He was reared in Bryan, Ohio, and re- ceived his B.S. degree at Ohio Northern. His experiences While traveling with the university choir are very plentiful and amus- ing. Mr. Baker is especially proud of his fine collection of airplane models and says that the freshmen are planning to raise every- thing from tropical fish to white mice in his room. And Mr. Baker says that he's busy now! MR. MARION L. LAWRENCE Marion Leyde Lawrence iirst saw the light ot day in Newton Falls, one ot Ohio's steel centers. He was graduated from Newton Falls High School and then satisfied his yen for higher education at Wooster College in Wooster, Ohio. There he obtained the de- gree ot Bachelor of Science and Mrs. Law- rence, who he claims, is the best thing he has got out ot lite. Mr. Lawrence has charge ot the chemistry and biology classes of this high school. In chem , besides the usual concocting of those unbearable odors the students have been learning the use of the slide rule, which has helped them immense- ly. Even though Maumee boasts of the best equipment in these parts, Mr. Lawrence isn't satisfied. He wants a microtome for the biology lab. We hope you get it, Mr. Law- rence. it Wilt' ss.. gvnt -' MR. ARTHUR C. ZUELZKE The town lucky enough to be the birthplace of Arthur Charles Zuelzke is Fostoria, Ohio. He was reared there, and after attending Fostoria High School, Went on to the Univer- sity of Cincinnati and Cincinnati Conserva- tory ot Music, and at the end of it all re- ceived a Bachelor of Science Degree and a degree in public school music. The musical activities of M.H.S. consist of band, orches- tra, dance band, two girls' glee clubs, boys' glee club, and A'Capella choir. The band performed very nicely during the football season and brightened things up at the Christmas concert. The orchestra positively outdid itself at the spring concert. Some re- ally solid swing was given out by the dance band at various dances and other occasions. We certainly appreciate it. The various glee clubs have done an excellent job this year, the Thanksgiving, Christmas and Spring con certs being the main highlights. The A'Cap- ella choir is a new addition to the music. de- partment. Although it has been organized for only a year, the director proudly states that it has done the work of one in organiz- ation for at least three years. Maumee High School is as proud as you are, Mr. Zuelzke. MISS SUE SCHROEDER Everybody's friend and the keeper of the world's most untidy desk is an apt descrip- tion of Miss Sue Schroeder. She was born in Toledo and went to the University of Toledo where she acquired her degree of Bachelor of Education. Miss Schroeder has introduced several new things to Maumee for which we are duly grateful. Among them are the new system of girls' sport credits, modern dance and the very popular swimming classes. Surely no one but Miss Schroeder could have kept her good nature while trying so hard to get the girls to put their faces in the water. And yet the senior girls are being very patient while waiting for that certain day in May when they will first be able to safely call Miss Schroeder Susie MR. ROBERT WREN When coach came to Maumee this fall the pressure was on him because he had to fill the shoes of our former, much admired coach, Mr. Conrad. Thus far this year Coach has proved his ability by building one of Maumee's best football teams and a very good cage team. Coach graduated from Ohio University an all-around athlete and played baseball for the Toledo Mud Hens last summer. His athletic experience has ac' counted for his excellent coaching ability. Everyone admires his curly hair and flashy combination suits, CWonder how he would look in a zoot suitl Oh, yes, sorry, girls, Coach is a married man. Yes, sir, he's the man of the house. He was married just before he started teaching. Coach has sign- ed a contract to play baseball again this summer but we hope he will be in Maumee next fall to celebrate his first wedding anni- versary. MISS RUTH HONOR Besides being our very able all-around math teacher, Miss Honor is admittedly the only one in Maumee High who really knows the difference between precision and accuracy. The seniors were drilled for two weeks to distinguish between the two but still no one seems too certain of the difference between them. Like most of the other teachers, Miss Honor has a very crowded war time sched- ule and free periods are very few, if any. Besides teaching, Miss Honor works with a branch of the F.B.l. on her daily lunchline beat. lf anyone gets unruly, she sends him to the end of the line and justice prevails. Miss Honor majored in math at the Univer- sity of Chicago. ln short, she has always been, and always wants to be mathemat- ically inclined. MR. ALEXANDER KONIECKO Mr. Alexander Koniecko was born in Racine, Wisconsin, in 1909. He received his Bach- elor of Arts Degree at Youngstown College. At present he is doing graduate work for his Master's Degree at Miami University. At Maumee, Mr. Koniecko instructs sev- enth, eighth and ninth grade mathematics classes, in which he particularly stresses practical math. He teachers math as applied to aviation, and the detailed metric system. In Mr. Koniecko's classes, students learn arithmetic with application to trigonometry and surveying. Mr. Koniecko could very Well substitute for several teachers, as he has teaching majors in social sciences, physical sciences and mathematics. Before coming to Maumee, Mr. Koniecko taught at Youngstown and Boardman, Ohio. S7 STUDEN TS Apple. luck Appleiack Basketball 1 Hi-Y 3,4 Intramurals 1,2,3,4 Bateman.

C x JUNIUH CLASS NEWS This year's Iuniors wisely selected Tom Ashe as their commander to steer them through the storm of carnival, picnic, prom, parties, and dances. The carnival was a greater financial success than ever before, A dance, sponsored by the Iuniors, was held after the first home football game, that with Swanton. The other Iunior class officers were: Galen Gongwer, vice president, lohn Beaber, secre- tary: and Mary lane Hoag, treasurer. The lun- iors were represented on the Student Congress by Maudie Farthing, Norman Plass, Norman Kuhlman, and Galen Gongwer. The class was well represented on the foot- ball, girls' and boys' basketball, hockey, and track teams. Iuniors also belonged to the Hi-Y, Girl Reserves, G.A.A., Honor Society, and Stu- dent Congress, and to the Visual Education, Iournalism, Varsity and Dramatics Clubs. Several luniors participated in the Dramatics Club fall production, The Admirable Crichton. Norm Plass and Ella Marie Brahier played major roles, while loyce Terrill, Rachel Brell and lim Pauken had smaller parts. lt was quite obvious, soon after school began this year, that everyone would be Working harder than ever before. Everyone did work more, and no one appeared to be suffering from the effort, Miss O'Dwyer received many amus- ing cartoons and editorials from the members of her American history classes. At the end of the first semester, each and every Iunior compiled an anthology of American poetry, complete with introduction and bibliography. Miss Pellens seemed rather pleased with them, too. In December, in time for Christmas, the class rings came. Everyone seemed well p' Xased with his ring. These, by the way, were ordered before the organization of the B.O.N.D.'s of which the Iuniors are nearly one hundred percent members.

Carolyn Linnard and Frank Micka are not pictured. The student government program has been completely revised. Under the new plan the Congress is directly responsible to the administration. As it is most convenient for all problems concerning the school to be turned in to the school office, the principal and faculty advisor to the student govern- ment will decide which problems can be handled by the Congress. They will be turned over to a committee of eleven, chosen and appointed by the faculty from the senior class, who will choose committees from the Congress to investigate the problem. The Congress itself is made up of the entirejuniorand senior classes. When the committees are ready to report, a general meeting of the congress will be called, at which the recommendation will be discussed. If accepted by the Congress and approved by the school administration they will go into effect as school law. The eleven members of the appointing committee will also act as a stu- dent court for cases in violation of school law. The entire set-up is very flex- ible and if weaknesses occur they can be remedied by a change in the by-laws. 35 HUNUH SUCIETY FIRST ROW, lf-tt to riaht: Mr. Baker, trofxsiireig Torn Corn, Hott hi if ttww, iw n- Et rvrwri, Uxrcriyri I.1ItH-ltfix Vir nne Shinnors, Don Sutor, Mr, P-itnior, Ativisnnp EQIKTONIU VVint--. titiitit iii WJ i. :'.4.':+i:t 1' it Ein ff: izzvt it tif 1 1 W: Katherine Vortrif-do, Gloria Evvrsolo, lime Hurley, Gort-uri, Aririv- H :tiff fniiii., It f- it 1' :.- E.II.1i' F' 1 ' M nit t imp zy iii tzsivr.

These two defeats were handed out to them by their everlasting arch-rival Perrysburg. The team this year had an entirely new coaching staff. Head Coach was Robert Wren who is professionally a baseball player. But Mr. Wren showed that baseball was not his only capacity by leading the team through one of its most successful years. Assistant Coach Cox, industrial arts teacher, also proved his football ability. lt is sad to see that eleven members of the squad will be graduated and will not be here to see next year's team, for most of them will leave for the armed services this summer.

A SUUAB BASKETBALL The Maumee Panthers basketball team had a rather good season this year winning ten games and losing six. Maumee was off to a good start in win- ning the first four, but was tripped by Rossford and then forced to swallow a string of four defeats in Ianuary. The remaining games on the schedule were all victories with the last a rousing triumph over the Yellowjackets of Perrys- burg. The Panthers registered 577 points this season with their opponents making only 504. Much credit should be given the boys for their splendid work and each team member should be individually congratulated on the part he played to give M.H.S a team that rightfully can be called a good team, The whole school was deeply shocked and grieved by the death of one of our star players, Elmer Wheeler. He will be remembered not only for his abil- tty in basketball, but as an all-around good fellow. Last but not least we must applaud Coach Robert Wren and Assistant Coach Cox who have given their time and guidance and high spirits in order to make our team a success. B SUUAB BASKETBALL The Maumee B-squad had a better season than the scores admit Not out for victory but rather experience, the team was composed mostly of freshmen and sophomores. Although the team was short their speed was a distinct asset Their losses were by just a few points and their games usually were quite as exciting as the Varsity games. If they keep playing the calibre of ball they played this year Maumee need not be Worried about the success of its future A squad. 48 dv x 0 X - W4 49 h When the birds began to sing, the cinders began to fly around Maumee this year. Track is the least appreciated of the three major sports but it can be easily understood and made quite' interesting, especially when a school has such a fine team as Maumee had this year. This is a sport of individual performance and Mau- mee was not short handed Hin any department. Most of our team has been together for the last four years and its record speaks for itself. 'It is the custom in Maumee High to have good track teams and this year was no exception. 51 GIRLS' INTHAMURALS Under a new plan, qirls' sports have flourished this year. They have been put under the GAA. and the qirls who participate in intramurals are workinq for awards provided by the G.A.A. A qirl is required to come out a certain number of times for each sport in order to qet a credit for that sport. Three credits earn a G.A.A. pin, eiqht earn a jacket, ten, a letter, and fifteen, the numerals of the qirl's qraduation year. The qirls have all approved this plan and have shown much in- terest in the awards. Field hockey was a very popular addition to the list of sports this year and those who participated in it enjoyed two qames with Maumee Valley Country Day School as well as the privilege of havinq Mrs. Bamford, our local expert in hockey, here to help them. Basketball is always a favorite and this year was no exception. The season was topped oil very successs fully with a play-day qiven in our qym February l4 for Rossford, Perrysburq, and Country Day School qirls. On February l8, a team from each of our classes journeyed to Ottawa Hills where the Maumee teams won every qame. Individual sports and volleyball were also very popular. 52 BUYS' INTHAMUHALS Each year towards the end of football season there seems to be an abundance of blistered feet, blackened eyes, and twisted limbs. This could mean only one thing, and that is that boys' intramurals have begun. This year six senior boys chose teams to compete among themselves. The Daffodils, Daisies, Flashes, Bachelor Buttons, Lilies, and 'Sweet Petunias are the colorful names that were given to the squads. When each team played a tournament game there was plenty of hard play and one might even say that the games were a little rough at times. Although the boys know' they are not stars, quite a few showed up remarkably well, which was an accomplishment against such players who prided themselves on not letting their opponent take a shot. These intramural games provide exercise and team work which trains the boys to work and play together. They not only have fun but gain valuable lessons in sportsmanship which is necessary in every game. 5Wifx.t,,- .f . 53 f tx X x 54 N 'T PATRONS C. C. Bigelow Clarence G. Brell Home Federal Saving A.
