The junior high school building was completed in October and dedicated on November zo, 1931. This building, with its eleven classrooms, oflices, library, gymnasium, indu trial arts shop, home economics room, art room, and music room, has provided us with unequalled physical equipment. 2. The separation of the junior and senior high schools brought Oakwood Schools into line with the best school organization development in American education. The separation has brought many educational advantages to both junior and senior high schools. 3. On january 1, 1932, the Oakwood Board of Education ofiicially became a city board of education. The illness of the president of the Board, Mr. Edwin D. Smith, who has worked most faithfully and skillfully for many years in the interest of the Oakwood schools, has been a matter of much concern to all of us. VVe are very glad that the ACORN staff saw fit to honor our two women members of the Board. 4. By cooperative action between the Oakwood City Council and the Oakwood Board of Education, a newly-created City Board of Health assumed charge, last September, of all health matters. By this arrangement a physician gives three hours daily to the schools and a public health nurse gives full time to the schools. The new clinic in the junior high school building serves as her headquarters, and pupils of both junior and senior high schools are treated there. 5. Scholastic progress has been very satisfactory. In all objective tests our pupils have exceeded our expectations. Our record of having twenty-five out of twenty-nine students pass College Board Examinations last June convinced everyone that any pupil in our X group can enter any college in the United States. The college records of our graduates show also that any pupil in the NY group with a general average of 80 in all subjects and not less than 70 in any one can do successful work in college. Pupils with lower marks than these are not recom- mended for college. Some of these have gone to college and passed: some have failed. 6. Although 84.4 per cent of our graduates have gone to higher institutions, the remaining 15.6 per cent have not gone. To meet the needs of these students, courses in commercial sub- jects, industrial arts and crafts, and household arts have been provided that prepare for direct entrance into commerce, industry, and home life. 7. Two creative writing classes, one for the eleventh year and one for the twelfth, have been conductd this year for the first time. Public speaking has become a required subject in the tenth year and is elective in the eleventh and twelfth years. In debating, our high school won four and lost two debates with other schools in the Ohio High School Debating League. 8. Another new feature this year was the Guidance program.l Each pupil in the senior and junior high schools took part in guidance conferences and discussions one day a week, in which personality and character development, vocational information and career finding, and the best use of educational opportunities were the main topics. 9. In athletics we passed from the ranks of Class B fsenior high schools with less than one hundred and Hfty boysj into the ranks of Class A high schools. The participation in after- school sports by both boys and girls was almost one hundred per cent. ARTHUR E. CLAGGETT, Superintendent.

Of this group seven have survived the rumbling, tumbling, hair-pulling times to graduate in 1932 in a class of seventy-seven seniors. These charter members are Bob Anderson, Pete Wood, Bob Johnson, Janet Cockerill, Mary Lillian Frank, Eleanor Knight, Elsie Wietzel, and Virginia Comer. How well we remember our kindergarten orchestra consist- ing of triangles, drums and tambourines--and its capable leader, Pete Wood. The first grade brought no addition, but in the second grade, Phyllis Chryst and David DeCamp were added to our group. In the third grade came Marjorie Johnson, Mary Jane Swaninger, and Bob Landis, although Bob left us the following year to spend several years at Moraine. We felt quite grownup in our third year, although we played such games as Cops and Robbers, and the boys teased the girls by chasing them around for fifteen minutes of recess calling them 'iMaggie. It made them simply furious-unless the one chasing was Pete. Maxine Lohnes and Billy Greenfield hooked onto our wagon in the fourth grade, Maxine adding to the difiiculty of winning a spelling match, and Bill adding a needed touch of color and bashfulness. He helped to H11 the vacancy caused by the promotion of Pete Wood. Our already intelligent class was improved in the fifth grade by the presence of Helen Rounds, Phil Crowl, Milton Wagner, Kenny Bontecou, and Douglas Robinson. In the sixth grade we were too grown-up for words--or so we thought. This year brought! Ruth Brelsford, Helen Compton, Linda Dill, and Bill Eckert. With the end of the year came graduation and the childish excitement of pre- paring for the event. It could be foreseen that six more years would see us a class for Oakwood to be proud of. We must not omit the hilarious class picnics that were enjoyed annually at Jim Campbell's. And the yearly pageants, with rehearsals that so often served to take one away from geographyor spelling class, are not to be forgotten. The seventh grade found us in the high school. We were lost souls for a while, but it couldn't last long, and we soon had the reputation for being the PAGE 23 TI-IE ACORN, 1932 Class History flfonlinzwdj loudest seventh grade in the history of the school. The new members this year were Harriet Barton, Betty Courtright, Mildred Herby, Jane Rodgers, Mary jane Schwinn, Eleanor Shawhan, Virginia Weiher, Charles Allen, and William Heir- mann. The eighth grade brought Anne Baker, Enid Martin, Johnny Hubler, and Kenneth Elfrits, and we were still loud. The new members of the ninth grade enlarged our enrollment greatly. These members were Jane Boggs, Inez Cooke, Carolyn Hosier, Mary Leen, Leah Belle Mauck, Frances Miller, Evelyn Pitt, Virginia Prinz, Thelma Requarth, Mary Ellen Schumacher, Jane Tipton, Dorothy Myers, Steffen Brown, Eugene Good, Carl Graves, Bob Herkins, and Bob Karg. By this time our class had proved itself so superior that Bill Hall, Jack O'Brien, Pete Wood, Cooper Gessaman, Ed Holtson, and Apostolos Zonars, originally of the Class of '31, chose our class as their graduating class of their own volition. The tenth year brought Elaine Hart, Milton Hall, James Jones, and Ronald Reeves. We were rapidly gaining knowledge and experience. Martha Altick and Charles Merckel were added to our class in the eleventh year. I will refrain from mentioning the innumerable accomplishments of the members of our class this year, as I do not wish to depreciate those of former graduating classes. ' This, our senior year, brought Kathleen Smith and Carmen Barbulescog and Fred Kramer and Jim Kohr returned to graduate with us. The old saying of all classes of all times is true of the most highly intelligent class that has ever been graduated from Oakwood. The saying goes: A Freshman knows not and knows he knows notg a Sophomore knows nor and knows not he knows not, a junior knows and knows not he knowsg but a Senior knows and knows he knows.

It is in the year 1942, and gif Mr. A. E. Claggett, Superintendent of the Oakwood Schools, has con- Z 'wig tinued his Oakwoodian custom of investigating the activities of the alumni. He has just completed a survey of the glamorous Class of '32. Mr. Claggett's chauffeur, Philip Crowl, did much of the research work on his spare tire. Due to the fact that the Class of '32 was not so promising when they left Oak- wood, Mr. Claggett is overjoyed to find some successful ones among them. At this point it is necessary to mention Gentle Gus Zonars and Hercules Herkins. Through that noted promotress, Ruth Brelsford, they have been signed to rassle for the championship of Hooey County. By the way, Miss Brelsford claims the women's rassling title. Robert Landis now goes under the name of Oscar G. Zilch and is associated with that educational magazine Ballyhoo.

BARRY 0,BRIEN CO O PAGE 30 THE ACORN1932 CLASS Poem G Graduation and Friendship Ah, well, each lovely day must end, The rose, however sweet, must fade, Seek not the melancholy depths As graduation airs are played. Rather, let each farewell ring with cheer, In memory of good days past, And, hetter yet, that lie ahead, Friendship makes all good things last. Let this thought warm each fond good-bye, So that this day of parting pain Will he remembered-not for sorrow, But as a stronger link in friendship,s chain. Think of the laurels won In high school's jolly, madcap race, In classroom, on the playing field, Didnit friendship each new triumph grace? This day, then, let us light anew That warming flame within out hreasts, And feel it leap along each vein With joyous strength for life's new tests. MARY ELLEN SCHUMACHER PAGE 3l TI-IE ACQRN, 1932 The lvy Oration It has been customary for each class graduating from Oakwood to plant a symbolic ivy vine as the final act of the school year. We are now gathered here in accordance with this custom. A weak, young plant is about to be placed in the earth to begin its up- ward fight for existence. Up to the present, this plant has been carefully cared for in a nursery. It has been given its start under the very best pos- sible conditions. So we, the Class of 1932, having been carefully nurtured under the best possible conditions, are about to be placed in new situations with new and greater difficulties to overcome, and to which we must adapt ourselves. We have completed one phase of our lives and, like the young ivy, must seek new heights, our grasp, like that of the vine, must be firm. Perhaps not all of the branches of the ivy will survive, certainly all will not reach the same height. But the lower part of the wall requires as much beautification as the upper part. Not all of us will reach the highest sta- tions in life. It is not necessary that we should, nor even desirable, since each high position is supported by many others which are obviously im- portant. Both the lower branches of the ivy and those who serve in less exalted positions are essential to a balanced scheme of things. Let us not be discouraged, therefore, by any past or future disappointments, remem- bering that the opportunity to serve is given to all who wish it. The planting of this ivy marks the last action of our class as a group. It is our hope that the ivy will live to add to the beauty of this wall. As each branch and tenclril climbs its way to perform its own distinct part in the beautification of these walls, so may our lives, climbing from our asso- ciations here, cling to ideals, beautify our futures, and add something to the walls of life. ROBERT LANDIS PAGE 32 4+-g QUE THE AC0l2N,193Q Eleventh Year XVirh the thought of a successful junior-Senior farewell in mind, the Junior Class launched several enterprises this year to secure funds for that purpose, the most im- portant being the junior Prom, hz-ld in llarch. The boys' money-making project for the year was a paper sale, and the girls sponsored the sale of refreshments at the home football games. Un the eve of the annual Fairmont football game the class sponsored a huge bonfire and pep meeting. Later in the spring, several other money-making enterprises were undertaken. The junior boys were exceedingly well represented in all athletic activities. A large percentage of varsity letter men in football, basketball, track, baseball, wrestling, tennis, and golf were juniors. Several girls won 'varsity hockey letters, and the girls' intiamnral team won the school hockey championship. , XVith the aid of our advisers, hliss VVise, llfiss Pope, and lN'Ir. Robertson, the class feels that it has completed a successful and worthwhile year. The class officers for the year were: jour: YoL'NG . . . . Prexizlnit Picom' PICKRISI, . . I!iL'!

Not only have they done well in scholarship, but they have taken part in many of the extra-curricular activities. In athletic fields the class contributed to the varsity football team with Phil VVorman, while Dwight lllills was prominent in basketball and baseball. A number of the boys are contestants for track and baseball. lVIany of the girls competed for the hockey team, and Jane Stanley and Elizabeth Flack were awarded varsity basketball letters. The Sophomores were prominent in musical circles, having several members in the band, orchestra, and musical productions. One of our members, Fred Barr, took the leading part in the annual operetta. Though the Tenth Year Class has had no organization throughout the year, it entered fully into the spirit and activity of the school year. VVe feel that many thanks on our part are due to our able advisers, lVIiss Cartmell, lvliss Kiiller, ltlr. VVagstaff, and Mr. Nellis. V. B. AND P. VV.

Al- though it was rather difhcult to adjust ourselves to the noise that accompanied the com- pletion of the school, the pleasure of possessing an entirely new building reconciled us to any of these inconveniences. The class as a whole has been very active in curricular and extra-curricular activi- ties, including music, athletics, and others. The Ninth Year boys composed the major- ity of lllr. Nellis' .lunior High School football team. This team won the greater part of its games, and a great number of Ninth Year boys received letters. The girls were active on the -lunior High School hockey team, and received valu- able instruetion from hliss Hayner. During: the winter both boys and girls participated in basketball under Mr. lllin- ning and Miss llayner, and many of our members took part in track and baseball in the spring. Uur class advisers were llliss Bickham, Miss VVehr, Mr. lllarsh, and Mr. Johnson. 'lihe class ollicers were: l'il'GIENll2 G.KRlJNl?R . . . . Pr-vxiflmi Ilorzoriiv Liars SUl.LIV.XN , .....

Every school project has been whole-heartedly backed by our class, and many of our members have participated in numerous of these activities, including band, orchestra, ath- letics, etc. Those who have won scholastic recognition are llllary Frances Randall, lllary Elaine Arnold, Nancy Ann Ohmer, -lane Ohmer, Jack Storms, Dane Prugh, and Howard Converse. The girls, as Well as the boys, have participated in the field of athletics. Both boys' and girls' teams played well throughout the season. So far this group has upheld the high standards of the school, and under the leadership of our advisers, llliss Stilwell, llliss Harvey, hlr. hlinningl, and Mr. Black, We feel that we shall continue to do so throughout our high school years.

PAGE 37 THE ACORN,193Q Seventh Year Our first year in the new .lunior High School building has proved most profitable and enjoyable. The class as a unit has been very active and at the same time has heartily supported all the projects and activities in the Senior High School. Several of the Seventh Year classes gave plays for each other. Une of the Latin classes wrote a play to present for the entertainment of the other Latin students of the Seventh Year. ln the line of athletics, both hoys and girls have been quite active. The boys only played a few games in football, but they played quite a number ot basketball games. Among these were two games with Centerville. The Oakwood boys lost these games, hut the team played well nevertheless. The Seventh Year girls played several hockey games and many basketball games. The Seventh Year first team played lliamisburg in Klarch, and won by quite a large score. They also played intramural matches with the Iiighth and Ninth Years. NVe believe that we have profited greatly in our first year in junior high school, .uid that under the direction of our advisers, hliss VVeber, hliss llayner, Klr. Hum- mon, and hlr. Hoffman, we have become excellently equipped to undertake our future responsibilities as upper classmcn of Oakwood High School. The class oflicers were: JAMES Liars . . . . . . .

PAGE 38 ATHLETICS get r OAKWOOD This year Oakwood ranked as a Class NA high school for the first time in its history. Although many high schools of the state were forced to curtail their athletic activities, Oak- wood fortunately was able to continue its regular program. Both the Senior and the Junior High School had extensive schedules in the various sports. With a new football field beckoning to them, our varsity gridders didn't lose a game on the home soil and climaxed the season with a crushing 29 to 0 victory over Fairmont - our first football victory over Fairmont in all the years the two schools have played each other. This win gave us second place in the Little Threei' League. Oakwood also finished in the runner-up position in the Little Three basketball competition. Continuing its Branch Rickey Farm Systemf, Oakwood is now on the threshold of a new era in the field of athletics. The youngsters in the ' elementary and Junior High schools will be mak- ing their presence known in the various sports very soon. No longer will varsity aspirants require painstaking drilling in the fundamentals, as has been the case heretoforeg nor will plenty of good reserve material be lacking. Competitive athletics at Oakwood share the spotlight with inter-class and intra-mural activities. In this manner, every girl and boy takes part in some form of physical exercise. An intra-mural basketball league was formed by both boys and girlsg games were played every Friday afternoon during the winter months. The gymnasium of the new Junior High School, with a seating capacity of l,000, was used for all the home games and exhibitions. Several interesting wrestling exhibitions were staged during the year by the varsity wrestling squad. A few boxing bouts were also in- cluded as part of these exhibitions. As usual, track and baseball were the major attractions during the spring season. Green and inexperienced material was a source of worry in each sport, but very creditable teams were turned out. As the AcoRN went to press, several track men showed promise of real ability, but little was expected of Oakwood in the State Meet this year as it meets Class An opponents for the first time. Several matches were scheduled this spring in the two minor sports, tennis and golf. Girls of both Junior and Senior High School boasted varsity teams in hockey and basketball. The Junior High boys were represented by teams V in football, basketball, and track. Many exciting games marked the schedules of H A A the football and basketball teams but the following seem to stand out above the rest: Football: most exciting game, Fairview, 13, Oakwood, 12, best played game, Oakwood, 29, Fairmont, 0, Basket- ball: most exciting game, Steele, 28, Oakwood, 27, best played game, Oakwood, ll, Wilmington, 10. Each year there graduates from Oakwood a , few outstanding athletes, but seldom so great a trio . as Jack O,Brien, Bill Hall, and Bob Landis. These boys, who most certainly will be missed next year, deserve a place in Oakwood7s myth- ical Athletic Hall of Fame.

Under the leadership of Miss Pope, the girls won their four scheduled gamewg a return game with Antioch College, which had been planned, did not materialize lveeauwe of unfavorable weather conditions. 'l'he most outstanding players of the season were: Marjorie Johnson and The'ma Requarth in the forward line, Anna Baker and Captain janet Coekerill at halfbaek positions, and Eleanor Shawhan at fulllvaek. The most ditheult gzune was that played with the Columbus School for Girls, at Columbus, in the pouring rain on an extremely soggy field. The most spectacular play was made iw Ruth lirelrford, as goal- keeper, during the C. S.

Senior High Girls' Basketball During the 1931-32 basketball season the girls played ten games, winning seven and losing three. The spirit of the team, under Miss Pope's direction, was unusually fine, and that the team made a favorable impression outside of Oakwood, too, was evidenced by the fact that Miss Pope received a very complimentary letter from a basketball fan in Highlands, Ky., after our team had played there. All the regular players will be lost by graduation this year, and the squad will have to be completely reconstructed next fall.

Although losing their games with other schools, all hy close scores, the Little Lumherjacksu displayed a good brand of basketball throughout the season. The hest played games were those against Xenia, Centerville, and Butler junior High Schools. The team also played in the intra- mural league and were defeated only by the Eleventh Year team.

Of seven games played with other schools, only two were lost. The Oakwood girls scored 172 points to 105 for the opponents. Captain Sarah Jane Kimmel and Martha Jane Porter showed ability as steady forwards and good shots, while Sarah Ashley and Marion Huffman played a fine game in the center court.

Baseball Oakwood's baseball team appeared to be one capable of having a very successful season at the time the ACORN went to press. But two games had been played, and both were recorded in the win column. Eaton was walloped in the season's opener by a score of I7 to 6. Loose Helding by both teams was conspicuous in this game, but the Lumberjacks made up for their miscues in the field by doing extra duty at the plate. The features of the game were a home run by Mills and three hits from Ed Holtson's bat. Oakwood showed greatly improved form when they defeated Miami Military Institute in the second tilt of the season, 9 to 5. Bobby Servis limited the visitors to but four meager hits and no earned runs. Ed Holtson again was the main cog in Oakwoodls attack by virtue of his long home run and two singles. Taking the two initial games as a criterion, it appears that, with more practice and experience, this spring's ball club will develop into a real team. The battery was Al. CAPTAIN O,BRIEN PAGE Sl perhaps the strongest of any of the positions with the exception of shortstop. The outfield of the Lum- berjacks was an experimental one, but appeared to be making consid- erable progress as a result of the practice sessions. Next year's baseball team should be one of excellent strength, as only four members will be lost by grad- uation this year. These are: Holt- son, O'Brien, Berry, and Bontecou. Al.

Senior High Track As in previous years, Oakwood stood head and shoulders over its track rivals this Although the above statement is based on the results of the first three meets of the season, it then looked as it Oakwood had great potential strength in many Last year Oakwood retired, undefeated, from Class HB track competitiong spring. events. this year we competed with Class AU schools. The opening meet of the season was staged on a track closely resembling a lake, but the Lumberjacks were an easy winner over Fairview, 74 to 35. Due to the weather conditions, no outstanding marks were set, though many events were won in creditable times. Oakwood handed everyone a big surprise the following week by overwhelming Greenville, 82M to mth, winning twelve of the fifteen events. Pete VVood outdid all others when he set a new school record in the 440-yard dash with a record time of 52.7 seconds. Other team members who bade fair to be outstanding point-getters for Oakwood were Landis and Cook in the dashes, Barghoorn in the hurdles, Hall in the jumping events, Good in the weights, and Crowl in the distance events. The 880-yard relay team figured to be one of Oakwood's best sprint relay quintets in recent yearsg the baton passers for the mile distance also showed promise of some exceptional work. llr. Cook, assisted by Mr. Illarsh, has turned out some remarkable track teams in the past and should have another crack squad next year. He will, however, be with- out the services of Crowl, Gessman, Greenfield, Hall, Habit-r, Landis, lVagner, lVood, and Good after this year.

A good many of the boys looked like varsity prospects for next yearg they received very able coaching at the hands of lN'Ir. Cook and hir. lwarsh. lNIeets were held with other junior high schools during the season, including Greenville, VVilbur VVright, and Belmontg the first meet, with Greenville, was lost by a small margin only. At the time of going to press no other meets had been held. Some unusually good marks were set by members of the Junior High squad and, by continuing to improve, these lads should be outstanding track men in a few years. Passing the baton was given more than ordinary attention in order to strengthen one of the fundamentals of relay racing. Some of the most promising candidates who worked out this year were: Prugh, Stein, Cline, Nelson, Smith, Seamans, and Gowdy. O PAGE 53 TI-IE ACORN, 1932 I-lrst um: Klnrsll, Uupzslzxll tfmli.

Meetings are held every VVednesday evening throughout the school year. Speakers from Dayton and Oak- wood feature most of the programs. During the past year, the club was addressed by Mr. Cook, Chief of Police VVurstner, Captain Brown, Mr. Hummon, Prof. Frank D. Slutz, Mr. Marsh, Mr. NVagstalf, Mr. XVillard Marquardt, General G. H. VVood, Mr. Rowan Greer, jr., Mr. Zook, and Mr. Lewis. Mr. Nellis, the club adviser, led frequent discussions at the meetings. At Thanksgiving and Christmas the club members distributed a number of baskets of food to the needy. It was also instrumental in securing speakers for the high school assemblies at various times throughout the year.

Each of these clubs was represented on the Council of the junior High School League. Ar Christmas time the Junior High girls joined the Senior High in their en- tertainment of the crippled children, furnishing part of the program for this occasion. In lllarch, the mothers of all junior High School girls were invited to the school one afternoon to witness a play sponsored by the Dramatic Club and to attend a tea in the library, following the play.

'l'hese representatives, Martha Altick and Virginia VVeiher, spent the week of April 3 in fleve- land at the Music Supervisors' National Conference. Une of the new features of music activity this year was the A Capella singing by the Senior Fhorus. A selected group from the Senior lligh choruses will give the Commencement anthems, one of which will be sung A Capella. The main musical event of the year was the performance, on two nights, of the light opera, Pirates ol' l'enzanee, by Gilbert and Sullivan. This performance was given by an orchestra of thirty and a cast and chorus numbering about sixty. Both performances were successful and were played to full houses.

Nobody seems to have a care in the world, except Ed Holtson, who always has his lessons so well that it worries him. A bell rings.
