As you receive the diploma which signifies the successful completion of twelve years of study, you, no doubt, will feel a sense of pride which the moment bringsg and rightly so. For many years you have toiled and studied to assure yourself of a po- sition among the graduates of Shawnee High School. The paths you have followed in these all too short years have not been easy ones. They have been be- set with pitfalls and temptations which have trapped a few of your classmates and surely at times must have been trying for the rest of you. The temptations of worldly offers, of good paying jobs and steady employ- ment have taken their toll of your student friends. Yet, like the crafty fly in the immortal story, you were able to shun the spider's web. You carried on in spite of these worldly obstacles and completed your course. Others of your ever thinning ranks have left to join the armed forces, For all of you this represents a real sacrifice. Not the sacrifice of a diploma, but the sacri- fice of pleasant homes, life-long friendships, school pals, and the social whirl of senior activities. We, who watched you grow and develop from that small bash- ful youth in the first grade to the mature, self-confident and talented senior, have sensed somehow that you would come through with colors flying high. Our hopes have been vindicated, To all of you, the service- men who will receive their diplomas in absentia, and to the seniors on the traditional graduating stage, we say with pride, Well Done! To each of you who have thus far so nobly advanced may we part with this final toast to the Class of '45, Congratulations, Good Luck, and God Speed! SHAWNEES SERVICE RECORD When Iapan made her sneak attack upon Pearl Har- bor, December 7, 1941, awakening and solidifying our nation as it had not been before, graduates and stu- dents of Shawnee High School responded to the call of patriotism at once. All in all 6 teachers and 239 graduates and students have joined the ranks of the army, navy, marines, and air corps, and more will have joined by the time this Annual appears before the public. In addition seven of our girls have joined the Waves and the Wacs, or are active in hospital service. Many have aided ma- terially in work of the Red Cross. As a school our teachers and pupils have averaged about S400 as do- nations to the Red Cross in each of the drives. In the War Bond Drives we have sold from ten to fifteen thousand dollars worth in each drive, except one-in that we sold over 534,000 worth. Besides this we have averaged about S100 per week in the sale of War Stamps for the past several years. This is not only helping the national cause but also teaching practical thrift to the students. Aid has also been given through the Iunior Red Cross and by gifts to the Lima Canteen Much has been accomplished, we feel and hope, in building a finer, better patriotism and in battling iso- lationism and extreme pacifism We are confident that in the years to come our graduates will be a power in building for lasting peace among men, that they will think and act on the truth that eternal vigilance is the price of liberty . We hope and trust that to them the American flag will be a symbol of-freedom of the individual, right to their own religious beliefs, no sub- mission to anything remotely resembling Gestapo rule , and the opportunity to develop happy and use- ful lives.

Yes, these little troubaclourians have had their first taste of real high school drama. They liked it, too. They were among those privileged to see Friday morning movies, go to pep sessions, and generally take part in raising a riot. Some ot their number helped out in the band and orchestra. A few reached the football tield and their basketball team made a record of which they can be justly proud. - The elected oiiicers were: Patricia Hardin, President, lim Stevens, Vice- President, and Patricia Grimm, Secretary-Treasurer. Here's to next year and to you budding Barrymores and Bernharts. Long may you act upon lite's stage. 10 ROW 1.

The second part of the prologue is finished and the cast, though unsea- soned, is anticipating great things tor their tirst act next year. Things Went so very Well trom September until May that they have no fears of what may happen when they are freshmen. Ot course one reason Why they Went along so smoothly this eighth year was that Miss Beatrice Rumbaugh and Mr. Nicho- las Baca were their advisors. Helen Mayer was the class President and David Hittle the Vice President. Other otticers were Mary Alice Kerr, Treasurer, and Marilyn Ritfle, Secretary. 1 1 l FRESHMAN CLASS OFFICERS Mrs. lune Muchmore ladvisorb, Ted, lean, lohn, Barbara, Iames Vogelgesang Cadvisorj 40141 Aa!

Treasurer SYNOPSIS: I All's Well that ends well applies to the first production staged by the freshman class. At last they reached the goal for which they had practiced eight years. ln the first weeks of school they chose their leading characters with care and thought. Sue Fisher was their sweet, petite representative in the beauty parade at the carnival. The cast really backed Susie with hard work and votes. The frosh felt mighty proud of themselves when they were allowed to get in on all the high school's doings. lt was their first year in eisteddfod singing, their first chance at school parties, and their first vote in the running of the school. ln the athletic field they too had their members. The GR., l:'.H.A., and l:'.F.A. were some of the other groups that welcomed the greenies to their midst. Next year this enterprising young cast can help to welcome the class of '49. From the wings they were lcoached by Mrs. Iune Muchmore and Mr. lim Vogelgesang. 12 ROW l.

Sally Young, their choice for queen, proved to be the best choice, as she was crowned. , These young actors found this act far more interesting than the preceding one. The plot was unfolding and they took part in many new events. During the course of the act they had two very successful skating parties. ln fact they had to turn some people away at their last one. These trouloadourians made their mark in the field of sports. Many of the star players were sophs. ln music they also shone. Mrs. leanne Laitner and Mr. Roy Crites were the stage hands who helped them with their proper- ties in the second act. As the curtain fell on the second act, we found the sophomores looking with anticipation to the next act. 14 KTOPP ROW l.

Treasurer SYNOPSIS: The season was full enough, but the junior-senior prom crowded out all else, as the casts of the third and fourth acts met together for an evening long to be remembered. The prom was the result of all the hard Work of the mem- bers of the junior class and their committees. ' Skating parties and a hillbilly party gave them a start on their final act. A few of their number have been coached on fourth act manners so the class of 1946 looks very promising to the critics. Their main production for the nine-month season was Don't Keep Him Waiting . lt was really a big hit with the high school and the parents, An- other hit Was the annual carnival Where Beatrice Barbour represented them as their beauty queen. Girls and plays held the spotlight for a While but many of the other members had their chance to shine, especially in athletics. Some of the biggest names in football, baseball, track, and basketball were Juniors. Miss Stella Mary Hiltner and Mr. Hamer Mitchell easily coached their cast through a hard year. 16 CTOPJ ROW 1.

SYNOPSIS OF PLAY: FIRST ACT: Early in September of l942, 42 pupils sat in a new room ogling their two new advisors, Karl Riker and Charles Hor- mell. They were in the first state of stage fright, but they managed to get through, with a little coaching. Don Pugh, presidentg Kent Eyler, vice-president: Clarence Dupler, home- room chairman, Shirley Kurtz, secretary, Donna Lou Miller, treasurer, were the char- acters who led the cast. SECCND ACT: Karl Riker and Darrell Lo- well guided the same cast plus a few new additions through their second act, in which Harry Butterfield acted as president, Rufus Williamson, vice-president, and Mary Frail, secretary-treasurer. THIRD ACT: This was a memorable act to all concerned with the Fiesta prom, Aunt Susie Shoots the Works, and several skat- ing parties. The cast was smaller as several boys had left to aid their country. Don Pugh, president, lane Keith, vice president: Nancy lacobs, treasurer: Mary Frail, secretary, with the aid of Miss Shirley Miller and L. C. Van Meter as directors managed a rather suc- cessful year. A FOURTH ACT: ln this act there were many dramatic moments and highlights, ranging from fun to tears. This time L. C. Van Meter and Mrs. Cosette Hauenstein were the coaches. To them the cast owes much, for without them their headaches would have been many. ln this act the senior play, the grand prom, senior pictures, name'cards and invitations held the spotlight. As we look back over this four-act drama in which we starred, we see many things to remember and to cherish. High school days are the best in one's life so they say, and we have tried to make ours the best. The curtain falls on this dress rehearsal and we step, not without hesitation and doubt, onto the stage of life. Let us do our best to make this production, in reality our lives, the very best possible, for it is our one and only chance to act our part well, since this pro- duction will be staged but once.

ITEM: Your turn at being Cock-of-the-walk and bossing the underclass- men around. To you we give the opportunity of being boss. ITEM: The honor of sitting in the front rows in assembly and of having the whole school stand at attention while you take your good old time in march- ing out. ITEM: Senior study hall as your home room with its long rows of windows which give such a fine view of your America. With -the study hall we give the noise of the Chief room on Fridays, the pencil sharpener that won't, the picture of the I-lorse Fair , and that super View of the library which makes you glad that you don't have that many books to study. ITEM: The fun we had in being seniors, also the hard Work and responsi- bility that goes with it. Remember that the underclassmen copy your every move, so move warily. ITEM: To the boys: a finer appreciation of the fairer sex and their many and varied accomplishments. The girls are the ones who will wait for you to come home, Iohnnie. ITEM: To the girls: a better understanding of the masculine gender with faith in their courage, their strength, and their skill in winning this War. Also we give them the patience that it takes to wait for the men: for the men are worth the waiting. ITEM: A feeling that you are all working toward one goal and for one cause-that of making Shawnee a better school for the future seniors. The desire to make Shawnee a school of which you can be proud. You are the only ones who can do that. ITEM: To all the school: the desire to better yourselves and your country, to build your given corner of this earth into a place fit for your returning heroes and a place that those who will not come back would have wanted to build themselves. We give to you the will to live full lives that your exit may be as glorious as your entrance and that your life may serve as a model for others. We give you the power to make your alma mater proud of you. IN WITNESS WHEREOE, on behalf of the Class of 1945, We, the class offi- cers by popular election, do hereby set our signatures: DON PUGI-I, President CARL LANGE, Vice-president MARIORIE SCHLEGEL, Secretary NELDA I-IARDIN, Treasurer 24 og - SW Al Y 'al Z Q9 5 L T- 3'33fffj3 ,jf wifi yf n gg, jf if QL Yf ff At gum- A5 Jfflgv! y 7415 YV' ' Jim ' ..1 f f If .

You kids take Plezol and Meadow Gold . . . Boy. did we get soaked! The progress of the theater was recorded in the annual Quilna. Members of both staffs worked diligently in order to prepare it for the students. The girls on the business staff often had to go out in Weather that wasn't fit for a dog to be in, but they trudged on. The editorial staff gave up many at study hall in order to complete the dummy. The library workroom was the scene of the ultra-secret meetings of the editor and her staff-or rather, they were supposed to be secret. After both staffs managed to hurdle a few headaches and weary feet, the annual went to press. The business staff, headed by Mrs. Muchmore, was composed of Shirley Blauvelt, editor, Charlene Harber, Shirley Strasburg, Nelda Hardin, Ann Town- send, and Kathleen Ebling. Patricia Clayton, editor, Don Pugh, Mary Frail, loan Kershner, and Shirley Iarnes comprised the editorial staff with Mrs. Waltz as advisor. As a result we give you another Quilna showing the progress of this great drama. We truly hope' that you enjoy it as much now and in years to come as we enjoyed preparing it for you.

For the first time there were sub-editors to lighten the editor's load. About every two weeks a paper was delivered to the students during their last period. Classes were suspended momentarily while the Shawneeites caught up on the latest gossip. The ink was hardly dry on one issue when the scribbling scribes were busily at work on the next issue. Mrs. leanne Laitner proof read all the write-ups and then passed them on to the typists who pre- pared them for printing. This part went to Miss lean Bowman and her capa- ble staff. Hours of weary toil were spent in getting the paper out on time, especially when the school Weeks were cut. Anyone who has ever spent a tiresome hour in study hall on Friday could tell you that the staffs really work -eat least they sound as if they do. Let us give praise where it is due, to the Chief staffs for their unceasing work, and their advisors for their excellent publicity.

When his daughter, Alice, be- comes engaged to a Harvard man, Andy Goodrich, and his wife has not only ice-cream but Harvard men to dinner, Herbert nearly goes out ot his mind with rage. Herbert's home becomes sate for Harvard men only after his family has embarrassed him by embracing his plain traditions literally. The sight of his wife in an old wrapper and a supper consisting ot Irish stew and apple pie destroy this curmudgeorfs resistance.

Come into the library some free period-if you are lucky enough to have a free period and aren't on the four minus' list, and you will see the girls sur- rounded by mountains of books. It you can manage to find the girls behind all of these books, you will find them busily at work checking books in and out, filing magazines and doing other little odd jobs to make the library a more enjoyable place in which to study and work. One ot the brightest rooms in the building is our library. Sometimes it was too inviting and people were ordered not to loaf there, but to study. Without the help of all the books and their guardians' we would have been destitute when it came to extra class work. Every two weeks the lassies had to dust away the sands of time, and we do mean sands. Their hardest job, though, was to get their library lessons in on time, The keepers of the tomes were always cheerful' and willing to help any persons who became lost in the maze of cards in the catalogue. Mrs. Waltz, head librarian, and her thirty helpers made Shawnee a better institution of learning. 32 ROW 1.

Snowy December found the Thespians working on a mammoth Christmas party which aided the holiday spirit of ye olde Alma Mater. A spring semi-formal topped their year. Each month some seventy budding actres- ses, gathered from all four acts, met to relax in one another's company. Mrs. Pearl Cohee and Mrs. Iune Muchmore, the advisors who directed the Girl Reserves through their sea- son, were aided by the back stage mana- gers.

But you can't blame the boys for trying though, tor the girls had lots of gay times this year with an early fall hayride, a big Ha1lowe'en party, a Christmas exchange and some sprightly spring activities.

One of the most popular musical groups in Ye Olde S.H.S. is Mrs. Pearl Cohee's girls' glee club, which meets Mondays and Wednesdays in ye olde music roon'1e. If by some miracle, you haven't heard them, you have missed the thrill of the year. The girls worked hard preparing for the an- nual eisteddiod and their other programs. At Christmas time the young ladies sang in the cantata. March 2nd the prima donnas participated in the assembly concert with pleasing results. Among their favorites were In My Garden , America My Own , All For You . The girls warbled their way through an- other successful season. From the number of girls trying out for eisteddfod solos, next years chorus will really rate as one of the best. Of course the seniors claim it will never be better than it was when they were around, but we shall wait and see. This page sponsored by the MR. AND MRS. SHERMAN ABRAHAMS ROW l.

Nothing makes a person feel better than singing. Perhaps that accounts for so many husky, carefree actors about this theater. Many of our boys took a lively part in presenting the musical extravaganzas- between scenes at S.H.S. Hamer Mitchell coached them up and down the scales, producing some spine tickling low bass and high tenors. Any of the cast who have heard them can testify that the boys' labors were not in vain, especially after hear- ing them sing Sky Anchors Away. They had their part in the Christmas Cantata and not such a small part in the April eisteddfod. Anytime and every- time they sang they received many compliments. The glee club of l9-45-1946 should really send the feminine hearts, since most of the boys will be back in there singing again next fall. This page sponsored by the I. H.

The last two periods every Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday strange land sometimes lovely! sounds emanate from the music room. lt you were able to weather it, you might have seen behind locked doors, a very interesting sight-the mixed chorus in rehearsal. For hours the choruses practiced to make those protessional sounds which were heard often in the auditorium. There were ninety some voices in both sections ot the chorus which Hamer Mitchell directed. At Christmas time the choruses presented the cantata, Babe ot Bethlehem, in assembly and PTA. Soloists were Nancy lacobs, soprano, Doris Lee, altog Ruth l-larshman, soprano, Patricia Clayton, alto, and Wallace Scheidt, baritone. ln March they presented a pre-eisteddfod concert at the school and then in April the Voices Went to Spencerville and won the annual eisteddtod. All in all they had a tairly busy year with short concerts and programs in assemblies and other special meetings. Accompanists were Donna Lou Miller, Louella Bowsher, Emmagene Burt- chin and lean Esten. 40 Drum Majorettes: LaDonna Layton, Donna McClain, Ianet Burget, Mary Miller. ROW l.

Those red and black uniforms add ar lot to their appearance on parade. This season offered many opportunities to parade, not only at school acti- vities, such as football, basketball and pep sessions, but also tor various com- munity celebrations. ' Hamer Mitchell, musical genius, conducted the 5U-piece band, that is, when the drums and bass horns could tollow him. tNo ottense meant to any person living or dead.J ' The bad notes they gave out With during rehearsal vanished when they had an 'audience. Prophets and bands are without honor in their own coun- tries, but not so our band. Actors and actresses from all acts'and even the prologues were responsible for such a musical organization.

By some mistake l wandered into the music room the fifth period one day and was greeted by some strange and weird sounds. l wondered for a mo- ment where I was and then it suddenly came to me. Of course-it was the orchestra rehearsing. Many rehearsals were 'needed before the music-makers were ready for their overture. Come to think of it, they had several overtures to play plus a semi-concert. Then there was the big epilogue known as commencement for which the Krislers and lameses played. There were many Wrong notes hit, lots of gray hairs gained, and several years added to each member's age before their final performance. When the year was finished, however, everyone was satisfied with the results of Hamer Mitche11's arduous labors. 42 Dew S Sh? 2l C U SY Oh. Say Can You See?? Ahhh, Come on Doggie. Walk!

Whenever our matinee idols were on the field playing their souls out tor dear old Shawnee, three classy little lassies came dashing out onto the iield to lead the grand stand in cheers. Their blithe spirits and cheery per- sonalities guided the boys through many a hard game. ln their neat red skirts and white sweaters they made the oldest and the youngest feel like giving a cheer for the home team. The girls did a super job ot getting every- one to exercise his lungs. Connie Kraft, sophomore, was the dark little lady that led the trio and a swell piece of work it was too. Blond Peggy Io Gossett, another sophomore, brimming full of vitality, shared it with the spectators. Last but not least came the treshmen's own little girl, Marilyn Detrick. Side by side the girls made a sharp trio that would be hard to meet. fi , if vi lu..

But with the great help of Shawnee's school spirit, we had a spunky little team. On September l6th our inexperienced team was broken in by the big Lima Central eleven when we were swamped by a score of 52 to U. Again when our braves traveled to Elida on September 22nd, We were beaten by the Elida Bulldogs by a score of 27 to U. But Shawnee is noted for its spirit of never-say-die, so when the Delphos Iefferson Wildcats tangled on our gridiron on the 29th of September, our bold team took over with a 6 to O score. On October 5th the huge Coldwater team, outweighing us greatly, was surprised by the ruggedness of our little team. But we were defeated on our field by a total tally of 20 to O. With injury being our great handicap, we were inevitably conquered by the Pandora eleven on October l3th by the sum of 38 to U. When we were overrun by the Paulding players on October 20th by a score of 53 to 2, it looked as if we were losing our school spirit. But our immortal vigor showed the greatest this year during the home- coming game on October' 25th when we tied the rough Rockford team U to U. Although both teams came close to a touchdown, neither was able to score. Then the cocky Wapak eleven traveled to Shawnee on November 3rd, thinking the game would be easily won, but to their surprise they ran up against a tough team. Although our rambling redskins played hard, they were unable to hold the visitors. We were defeated 27 to O. The day of November lUth was one Shawnee will long remember, for we drove to Columbus Grove to run over the host by a total score of 32 to 6. As amazing as it may seem, every senior that was then playing made a touchdown. Although we won only two games and tied one out of nine games, each team had a battle on their hands when they tangled with the Indians. We had a grand team who fought for all they were worth and never knew what giving up meant. Next year all but Eyler, Wetzel, Spyker, and Scheidt will be back. So come on fellows, we are expecting great things from you. 49 UI CD TI cs .-CI O L: CD ,M pq Q. U1 s: O Q si .E 3 CJ s: 4: O ..

But in the second game the Braves were defeated by Beaverdam 37 to 34, and again the third game by the strong Gomer team 32 to 24. Losing to Buckland was a heart-ache, for the Redskins were ahead until the last seconds of play. The score-33 to 32. We were also defeated the next two games by Spencerville and Criders- ville with the former beating us 55 to 36 and the latter, 39 to 31. The powerful Bulldogs of Elida whipped the Indians 50 to 31. Shawnee came back to down Lafayette for the second time by a score of 48 to 37. We challenged the rugged Buckland quintet a second time and were over- run 33 to 38. ln our next game with Harrod, we swamped the opposers 45 to 24 with the reserves seeing much action. Although Beaverdarn proved to be tough, we won with a small margin, 35 to 33. Nevertheless, the second game with Gomer broke our winning streak with a score of 38 to 28. We also lost our next game by bowing to Spencerville, 50 to 36. We then walloped Harrod 32 to 23 and Cridersville 36 to 33, which aroused our spirited Braves to ruin the excellent record of Elida. The Redskins fought for all they were worth keeping close to them until the last quarter when the Bulldogs added up points, defeating our quintet 37 to 30. In the Allen County Tournament, the Indians could not seem to get started. They were beaten by the Gomer five 4l to 36 and later eliminated from the Consolation bracket by Spencerville 58 to 37. Those reserves who played a great deal and helped Shawnee win its games were Stewart, Thedieck, Copus, Kerr, and Marshall. 51 '1 l by K V Nl ffm 5 U ...I sl CD ,-4 2 GJ ,-I .E Q 5.

The lndians were edged out the first game by their guests, the Elida Bull- dogs, on April 13 by a small score of 9 to 8. However, the Redskins came pouncing back on April 17, when we travelled to Gomer and won in a close game by a score of 2 to l. ln a practice game with Cridersville on our diamond, our Braves were badly defeated when the Rams scored 18 points to our 4. The game was played on April 19. Again Shawnee came back to wallop Spencerville on our own field on April 21 by a score of 9 to 2. In the tournament game on the 27th of April, we were defeated by the Lafayette nine by a total of 7 to 4. But in the last game of the season, which was played on May 5, the ram- bling Redskins really went wild when they walked over 1-larrod on their own diamond by a score of 14 to 5. The subs saw some action in this game. Next year we will have only 3 letter-men back, but if I know Shawnee, we'll come out on top. 53 Winger! Mwwuu Since this was the first year for 13 years that Shawnee has had track, our sprinting braves did very well indeed. Although we never came out first in total points, the opposing teams really had a match on their hands. Our first meet was at the Lima Stadium on April l9th against the Class A schools of Central and South, with Central coming in first, South second, and Shawnee third. Even though we lost in total points, we sprinted in first in the lUU-yard dash and 440-yard dash. The second meet was again held at the Lima Stadium against the South team on April 27, with the Tigers totaling 84 points and the Braves totaling 34. May 3 we were host to the Leipsic team, which defeated us by a total of 441f3 to 722f3. The Redskins then traveled to Greenville for the Treaty City Relays on May 5. l3 teams competed in this meet, out of which we ranked ninth, coming in first on the 120-yard low hurdles. Again the spirited Braves of our Alma Mater were beaten when we visited Bellefontaine on the lUth of May. Another track meet was held May l2. Pandora and Leipsic overran us, their hosts, with Leipsic scoring the highest. The Redskins ranked first in the pole vault and 100-yard dash. Our last track meet for the '44 season was the Northwestern Ohio District Track Meet, which was held in Bowling Green, May 20. In this the Indians ranked l5th in the list of 20 competing schools. Next year we expect to have a better and more experienced team. So, what do you say fellows? Let's come out on top in all our meets. 55 Whoa!! Nellie! 4- Miss America- 1898 and 1945 -V Legs! Legs!
