At the Mardi Gras there is always lots of fun and excitement. Students at Norwalk High comprise a small group in compar- ison with the gigantic throngs at a Mardi Gras, but they have just as good a time. Activity-wise, the students of Norwalk are on a pretty even level witl New Orleans. Back of all the excitement are the people and their organized activities. Also an out- standing feature of the New Orleans Mardi Gras is its splendid traditional background. Norwalk likewise boasts of a fine tradition - of learning, of courage and honor. These are the qualities that High School a great school. Editor .... . . Business Manager Theme Copy . . Division Page Art. . . Queens Page . . Photography . . make Norwalk . . .Tom Lane . .

Every pupil from the seventh grade to the eleventh has an individual picture taken . To keep in trim for all the activities coming up, gymnas- tics are an important phase of school life. Of course, there is a certain amount of play to ease the school work. Some- times it is just meandering glances, and other times it is practical jokes that are laughable to everyone.

This gave most of the students an opportunity to find out more about the tra- dition of Christmas through the stories and Scriptures that the girls read. Easter time also found the members of this club busy preparing an assembly which they presented before the student body.

Girls, chosenby their ability to play. This year Ohio State won for the first time in seven years with a score of 21 to 20. Port Clinton, Clyde and Willard girls were guests for the basketball sports day held in February. Sports days are held not only to give girls a chance to participate in sports with other girls but also to make new friends. The c1ub's year came to a close with the annual Mother - Daughter Ban- quet in the spring when the new officers and leaders for the following year were announced. A girl may join Girls' Athletic As- sociation by taking part in sports being played outside of the physical education class during her four years of high school. In this way, she may obtain points for each game she participates in, until she has enough to eam her an award of an emblem, a letter, and a pin, in that order for outstanding achievement.

The band also featured formations representing each of the seasons, winter, spring, summer, and fall to the melodies of Winter Wonderland, Easter Parade, The Good Old Summer Time, and School Days . The Pep Band can always be heard and seen at the home basketball games with their rousing versions of Birth of the Blues, Alexander's Rag Time Band, Blue Moon, Seven Lonely Days, the NHS Fight Song, and last but not least The Alma Mater.

This year's first squad was composed of mostly green players, with Dave Hunter and Karl Trace being the only vets. The first two games proved successful for the Truckers. In the preview game the Truckers met Port Clinton and defeated them by a score of 9-0. The winning touchdown was set up by Center Dom Caprara, who recovered a fourth down punt kicked by Dave Hunter. Dick Heaston carried it across for the TD. Karl Trace raised the score to 9 by making a field goal. Norwalk took Oberlin by surprise with a 19-6 victory. Trace proved himself of great value to Truckers by his all-around perfonnance. On September 24, Norwalk again met their old time rival, Shelby. The game proved to be thrilling, but the breaks were against the Truckers and the powerful Whippits downed Norwalk 28-7 . Bucyrus came to Norwalk October l and took home a surprise victory 6-0. Tiffin 14- Truckers 6 was the concluding score of Norwalk's third away game . The score was close for the greater part of the game and the fans were held spellbound in their seats. The Truckers tried hard, Karl Trace made the TD. Homecoming on October 15 saw the Truckers playing knee-deep in the mud against a hard rival, Bellevue. The Truckers gave all they had by scoring when everyone believed they were finished. The scoring of the Truckers took the Redmen by surprise when the use of single wing, Nor- walk's secret weapon, came into use. Hard as the Wallsmen tried, the gun went off and the score went 9-7 in the Redmen's favor. Willard took the Truckers for a 39-14 defeat October 28 and although the morale of Norwalk was growing weak the boys still hit with everything they had, which was proved by the Willard injury list. November 5, Upper Sandusky reigned over the Truckers 42-20, in what was the most thrilling game played yet. The Uppers thought all they had James Spalsbury, Don Zureich, Mike Cronk. to do is show up for the game, but they were mistaken, for the Truckers Dave Hamer' Captain as usual gave it everything they had. lt was in this game that Heaston with the combined blocking of his teammates ran 90 yards for a kickoff TD.

Basketball ECEMBER 3, was the opening night of the 1954-55 basketball season, as the Truckers in their new gold satin uni- forms met Fremont Ross in a thrilling game which ended with the Truckers being downed 53-48. Outshadowed by height on December 10, the Truckers again took S another defeat 75-52 from Elyria. ' January 7, the Wallsmen began to roll, as they steamed over Port Clinton 71-51 and on a cold Friday, january 14, 1955, trounced the Willard Flashes 77-62. Dave Hunter, Trucker center, tied the school's record of 37 points set by jim Spettle in the Galion game of 1954. But again for an instant the Truckers fell out when on january 15 they lost to Sandusky by a very close score of 66-64. january 21, the Walls- men again struck their colors to Galion 42-26 and on january 28 Shelby came to town to hand the Truckers a 89-64 defeat. The following evening, january 29, the Wallsmen, whose morale was starting downward, took another beating from Lorain by a score of 68-62. These close ones were the hard ones to loose. But the defeats were over and Coach Walls pulled his boys together to meet Tiffin Columbian on February 4. They handed them a licking of 59-53. By February ll, the Truckers really began to drive as they drove Upper Sandusky to their knees with a 51-54 victory. February 18, the Norwalk Five almost caused a riot by tramping Bucyrus on their own floor by a score of 68-62. The big day came on February 25 when the Truckers met an old rival, Bellevue, and rode them home on a rail by defeating them 71-66. This was the first time since 1944 that the Truckers took two games in one season from the Redmen. The Wallsmen were red hot by now and marched to the finals to de- feat Willard, Tiffin and finally to meet Sandusky High for the honor of first place. But Sandusky took the game in the last three minutes by a score of 59-49. Though the Truckers dropped the finals, they did take the second place award. Assistant Coach Ike Owen and Coach Grant Walls. 86 R erve Basketball ERFECTION is gained by experience, and experience is sought by long and hard practice. This is the basis for the Reserve training which some day will help them to qual- ify for the varsity team. Coach Ike Owens this year has taken the job of teaching the J-V's . Through his guidance they have shown great im- provement. The J- V's had a poor season, having won only 2 games out of 16. They have, however, gained experience which will come in handy at a later date.

Since it first originated in 1857, it has built up a reputation of being the most outstanding camival in the world. Norwalk High School, like the Mardi Gras, has built a fine reputation over its years of exis- tence. Tradition is principally background. The background of Norwalk High has always been of the best character. Its tradition is based on honor, courage, leadership, and service. J. H . MCBRIDE Superintendent R. J. H.
