In the rousing pep assembly given by the Oral Dra- matics Class, David Ernst, john Steketee, Paul Ander- son, and Carl Andre hold a real council of war to show how the Indians intend to deal with their foes, and just how tough they can be when they get on the war path. They proudly wear their gaudy blankets and bright headbands which symbolize the daring, courage, and bravery for which all the Ottawa Indians are known. Time Off for Variety We can be proud of the many boys from Ottawa who are in training to defend our coun- try, and we can carry on as regular soldiers here to make them as proud of us. These were the inspiring words Major MacNaughton gave at the assembly in November when he returned to Ottawa after a year's absence spent at Camp Beaureguard in Louisiana. Scalp 'im heap big enemy! The lively Indians from the Oral Dramatics Class staged a hair rais- ing war dance to rouse Ottawa's fightin' spirit in one of many clever pep assemblies given this year during the football and basketball seasons. Against a beautiful and impressive church set- ting the A Cappella Choir spread the true feeling of Christmas through the Hne selections they sang in a Christmas Program given by the Student Council in December. There is talent everywhere in Ottawa. The Senior Revue, given early in the spring, displayed that talent in an original show packed full of entertainment. Outstanding acts were a modern ballet by Sally Seven, an amusing skit, Yes Means No with Dave Shook, Lois Heldstab, Marilyn VanDusen, Dan Hill, and Reed Roberts, and a song The White Cliffs of Dover by two of our most gifted singers, Ralph Dunn and Pat DeWitt, with dancers in the background. Dave Shook is saying an emphatic No according to the wish of his father, Dan Hill, in the skit Yes Means No , a part of the Senior Revue. In the Christmas Assembly the A Cappella Choir is singing carols against a church setting, which lends a serious but impressive atmosphere. Mr. MacNaughton says a few words to the students who are welcoming his return from army duty at Camp Beaureguard in Louisiana. 12

Top row: Dave Shook, Dick Tennis, Stanley Fuehrer, Dave Gezon, Bill Jensen, Kenneth Pothoven, George Knabe. Bill McCarty, Gail Shoup. St-cond row: Betty Matteson, Margaret Wilson, Margaret Sims, Ernest Giddings CCoachJ, - Doris Kent, Patsy Allen, Rita Hanke. The orator, Bill Jensen, a regular member of the debating team, says Military training is necessary for the United States youth so that when he assumes his re- sponsibilities, he will be able to take his place capably in the modern world without faltering or hesitatingf' Bill is surely one to fulfill his words and live up to everything that he truly believes in. Trippingly on the Tongue The debating class this semester debated the proposition Every able bodied male citizen should have one year of full time military training before reaching the present draft age. For the many practice debates the members of the class were divided into groups of three to debate against each other for the experience. With facts gathered from every source, the debating teams carried on some very spirited and interesting debates with Mr. Ernest Giddings, sponsor of the organization, coaching and offering useful suggestions. The climax of the debating season of four interscholastic debates came when Stanley Fuehrer, David Shook, and Bill Jensen, members of the regular team, won over South and Muskegon High Schools. In the spring Margaret Sims, Patsy Allen, and Margaret Wilson debated against Betty Matteson, Stanley Fuehrer, and Gail Shoup for the benefit of the P.-T. A. at one of their meetings. The subject debated was Progressive Education versus Traditional Education. The debating class, though only a half semester class, affords the opportunity and the experience for the pupil to express himself with ease when speaking before groups of people. Those intending to take up law, teaching, or any other pro- fession where it is necessary to address large audiences profit greatly from debatingg and even those who do not plan to follow professions of the above mentioned type can still gain a lot for themselves in learning to think clearly. 13
