Capt. Robert Anderson, commander of the Nauti1is, was honored in Defiance, October 20 after having made his famous under Arctic ice expedition last summer. The Pettisville High School band with bands from other schools in Northwestern Ohio marched through Defiance in Capt. Anderson 's honor. The band also marched for the Defiance College homecoming game. Artie Ray shot an arrow into the air . . and was in the process of searching for his arrow in a corn shock when the camera's eye spotted him. He was only one of many who were moved by a desire to roam during the fall. Even second graders were afflicted with the fall disease, as the rush for coats took place after the bell had rung for recess. The high school students found the ideal temperatures for studying during fall months-- spring was still months away. Five delegates from the local Parent-Teachers Organization attended the State House Conference in Columbus. General education problems were discussed. Assembly programs were given to the student body during the year. The first of these was presented by Poodles and Gracie Hanneford on Nevember 5. This was composed of comedy and circus acts. The Hannefords formerly performed with Ringling Brothers and Barnum and Bailey. A big senior event was the personal picture-taking. Dressing up to come to school seemed silly and uncomfortable. But this was to be their final pose, so discomfort was endured for the day. The finished pictures came a few days before Christmas. Student Council members new a trash drive in the community, collecting glass, tin cans, and broken articles. This was a money-making project--a charge of '75 cents per stop was made, and donations were welcomed. The money they made was greatly needed because of the depleted state of their treasury. The senior FI' A members attended future teachers' clay at BGSU. Various fields of teaching were discussed. The Hannefords, a father and daughter team, entertain the school at an assembly program.

The state basketball champions, the Edgerton Bulldogs, were the opponents in the year 's first home game, November ll. The Pettisville boys lost 58-56. This loss was the first of the season for the team. lt was also the last until the second Archbold game, January 2. At this first home game dads of the basketball players were honored, as an added feature. The fathers were admitted free and each wore his son's uniform number. The local team fought till the last second but could not win. fAt least, we lost to the future state champslj i Pettisville's long-time foe, Archbold, held two royal battles with the local team this year. Pettisville came out triumphant in the first, but the team was defeated in the second. The display on the bulletin board served as a good luck charm- -once! The faculty with their husbands and wives held several parties this year. At Thanksgiving, they prepared their traditional dinner. In addition to the faculty, the school board members and their wives and non-faculty personnel and their spouses attended the dinner. The first Thanksgiving was recalled in the operetta given by grades five and six. Scenes of the Pilgrim story were done in an effective picture form. A chorus sang several numbers. Miss HClCI1 RCthIHCl, representative of the Toledo Edison Company demonstrated electrical appliances to the FHA at one of the fall meetings. She served refreshments in line with her demonstration to the girls. The gfildft again had as a special project the molding of leaves in clay. These leaves were glazed and baked, and given to the mothers of the artists for Christmas. Other art projects were also carried on in the elementary classes. A visitation program for the elementary grades was again followed this year. The parents were designated a specific time to visit their children 's classes.
