Study Hall Between 9:00-4:00 1943-1944 ilello, Can you remember as far back as the year this dignified t?l bunch of seniors started their career? I certainly can, and it doesn't seem long ago. Colly, it was a funny, wonderful, feeling--being a freshman. Harold Bloom was our class president, James Robeson, vice president, Edward Lamb, secretary, Evelyn Michael, treasurer and Miss Hahn and Mr. Baker, sponsors. We had quite a year--even took first prize on our Corn Festival float! By the spring of '40 our greenness had worn off enough to rate the title of 'fsophomoresf' This time Earl Cearig was president, Edwina Jud- son, vice president, Phillip Kinney, secretary, Ralph Vaughan, treasurer, with Miss Walbolt and Mr. Baker as guiding hands. We put on a pretty good play for the stu dent body--something about utter relaxation and a game of hearts. Well, here's something I'm sure we'll never forget--the thrill a junior gets when he really owns a seat in the study hall! There is certainly lots to tell about this busy nine months. Let's see, that's the year Betty Lou Spaulding was president, Ellen Ad- ams, vice president, Evelyn Michael, secretary, Edward Lamb, treasurer and Miss Wulbolt and Mr. Baker still on the job. Our play, Mama's Baby Boy went over with a bang. Then came the excitement of our shining new class rings, say were we proudf We put on some dances to help keep up student morale tand besides we need- ed moneyy. At last spring came and with it plans! We wanted as nice a banquet as cver in spite of priorities. Our theme was 20th Century and there were rocket ships. planets, stardust, and moon beams. Clavera Kreuz was crowned queen for the even- ing. ,Ieepers it was fun! That brings us almost up to present. Janice Overmyer is president, Bonnie Hill, xice president, Bob Poole, secretary, Earl Gearig, treasurer, Miss Hall and faithful Mr. Baker, sponsors. I suppose you knew, some of our fellows have already gone in- to service with Uncle Sam. We certainly miss them. We've decided to have blue and silver as class colors, a white rose as flower, and our motto is We live in deeds not yearsf, Our senior play is Along Came Peggy . Of course, we're all eager for our final high school activities. There'll be the banquet, baccalaureate, and then gradua- tion. These four years at Swanton Hi have certainly been memorable. We have a lirm basis now on which to stand and as we go out into a war swept world we're thankful for the training we received at S. H. S. It's almost time for the last bell --so guess I'll sign off.

Here goes- What junior of this year can't remember that September 8, 1941 when 96 people started in as freshmen? We greenhorns elected Kenny Born as presidentg Don Eicher. vice presidentg Ed. Suther- land, secretaryg and Terry Hallett, treasurer. Miss Edgar and Mr. Vaughan were the sponsors. Our float was a boat with a huge V on top. Uur sophomore year was even better than our freshman year. Kenny Born and Don Eicher were again elected president and vice president, respec- tively, for another year. Jack Ballmer was secre- tary and Bruce Sharples, treasurer. Miss Joslin and Mr. Vaughan were the sponsors. That year we had the privelege of putting on our first class play for the student body. It was entitled Youth and Uncle Sam. We all thought our other years were fun but our junior year has topped everything. This year Terry Hallett took over the responsible job as QQ . . . junior History presidentg Don Eicher, vice president: Ed. Suth- erland, secretary and Lois Vollmar, our first girl member on the cabinet, as treasurer. Our sponsors are Miss Curtis and Mr. Eaton. At the first of the year we sponsored the Hallowe'en party. which was a lot of fun. The proudest day of this year was when our class rings arrived. Who wouldn't be proud? On the evening of December 3 we pre- sented Cross My Heart. That was-our class play and it was very successful. During the football season our class had an eats stand at the home games. Many a student of S. H. S. was warmed up by the steaming coffee and hot dogs sold at the stand. The members of the class gladly donated the needed meat points. Our class came out on top in the war bond contest in high school, buying the cnormous sum of ll59 dollars worth of stamps and bonds. All this has been wonderful and wc have our biggest event yet before us. the Jr.-Sr. Banquet. It gives you a thrill to think that you will be able to participate in this grown-up affair. Al- together we have had three very successful years. There, gosh, I didn't realize we'd been so busy. But, now you know--that's the History of the Junior Classf' Junior Class . . .

You see I'm a sophomore and our class has had an interesting, though brief his- tory. Would you mind hearing about it? This year our class was a little more com- posed on the first day of school. We had very little trouble in finding our classes and felt much better to be calling people green. than to be called that ourselves. Last year, when we were in the receiving line. our officers were: Robert Adams. presidentg George Tavitigian. vice presidentg Joanne Beard. treasurerg Marie Stick- radt. secretary: and sponsors. Miss Curtis. Miss Palmer, and Mr. Eaton. For Corn Festival we made our very patriotic float out of newspapers and gave the money for crepe paper to the U. S. 0. Our elections this year resulted in the following officers: Albert Langenderfer, presidentg Robert Barnes. vice president: George Tavitigian, secretaryg Alice Elton, treasurerg and sponsors. Miss W'albolt and Mr. Shaver. Since Mr. Shaver's leaving for the Navy, we now have the teacher who is so efficiently taking his place. Mrs. Cunningham. We gave for the annual sophomore assembly program. a play entitled Love In Bloom , a comedy which I believe, provided a few laughs for all. We also spon- sored a leap year dance because we lost the War Bond Drive. I believe that we, as sophomores, have learned much more about education and about what it means to be educated. We feel that we are better prepared to meet the future. C975 . . . Sophomores First Row: Jeri Harding, Alice Elton, Velma Degenfelter, Phyllis Keller, Keith Clay. Joanne Beard.

Freshman History SWANTON, OHIO Cherry Street 1943-1944 Greetings: Un Septemher 7. l943. eighty-three confused freshmen entered Swanton High School for the first lime. Since then our class has been increased to eighty-six. After being directed to our home rooms and from there to the large study hall, we were introduced to the teachers. We then started on our way to our classes. Miss Curtis helped us get acquainted by explaining the different systems of the school to her English classes. Within a few days the class officers were elected under the direction of our able advisors. Mr. Daniels and Mrs. Carpenter. The officers are: President, John Hillg vice president. James Kreuzg secretary. Caroline Pilliodg treasurer, Beryl Ov- erniyer. Now that the school year is almost over, we feel much more at home than at the beginning of the year. l am sure we are looking forward to when we will no longer he l reshies .

Sports '43 - The Coach -'44 The school spirit which prevailed in i939 and I9-110, but which for some reason or other has not been prevalent in the last few years, has once again returned to Swanton High School. One of the main reasons for this is our new coach. Andrew J. Kan- dik. Coach Kandik came to us from Delphos St. John's where in three years his teams compiled a record of 68 wins and ll defeats. In the nine years, record previous to this he coached at the East Side Neighborhood House in Toledo where his teams won ll7 games and lost l3. Mr. Kandik came to Swanton highly recom- mended and his work this year has been excellent. Although our teams this year havenit been howling C4 successes as far as relative scores are concerned. nevertheless they are the best to represent Swanton in recent years. Coach Kandik deserves a lot of cre- dit for what he has done. Coach Kandik started out his athletic career at Central Catholic in Toledo where he played three years of basketball. From there he went to Toledo University where he played football and basketball in his sophomore year. After that he went to night school and did not participate in ath- letics. Coach Kandik has a lot of promising talent re- turning next year and we wish him and his teams the best of luck. Football . . .

Perrysburg came to town with a veteran eleven and had little trouble rolling over Swantonis green team 25-0. Holland t Sept. 28l Swanton cashed in with their first victory of the year taking the measure of Holland 14-6. The llulldogs garnered two points via the safety route to start things rolling. Not long after, Curly Mil- ler, our star halfback. unleashed a pass into the arms of Johnny Mitchell for an additional six points. J. B. Carter banged over for the other touch down . Maumee ttlct. ll We then journeyed to Maumee to engage their grid machine and suffered a 40-0 defeat. They ran our ends all over the field and bucked the line with equal success, and the Purple and White just could not stop them. Whilmer lflct. Sl A much improved Swanton eleven faced Whit- mer, than the one which played Maumee. Swanton pushed Whitmer all over the field for four quar- ters but were unable to score. Whitmer finally capitalized on a fourth quarter break and won out by the score 7-0. liossford Uct. 15h After holding Whitmer to a standstill a week before the Bulldogs relaxed. so to speak, and were defeated by an inferior Rossford eleven I9-6.

After four quarters of tough football mingled with all the mud Wauseon could muster. the Purple and White came out on the short end of a 32-18 score. Miller passed to Mit- chell and Melotik for two scores and lugged it over himself for the third touch down. llryan 1 Nov. 5D The next engagement for our grid machine was at Bryan where we came out second best. 20-0. This game featured not only llryan's scoring po- wer but lots of mud to make it nice and slippery. Miller broke loose ou a couple of 50 yard runs but slipped in the mud. Delta tNov. l2,l Delta had the misfortune of running up against the Swanton grid machine when the Bull- dogs were hitting on all cylinders. As the whistle blew to start the game. the snow began to fall and it continued throughout the first quarter. The six minute mark of the second quarter found the ball on Delta's l5 yard line from where Curly Miller chucked a pass to Johnny Mitchell for six points. ln the third quarter Emerson Cole lugged it over from the two and Albert Langenderfer split the up- rights for the P. T. U. and made it I3-0. Delta made a futile attmpt to score in the last quarter on a lateral pass inside their own twenty which was intercepted by Johnny Mitchell who scampered the remaining twenty yards unmolested for six more points. The final score was S. H. S. l9. ll. H. S. 0. Football Letterman . . . Johnny Mitchell Crazy Legs was a very val- uable end. He helped make the pass combination of Miller to Mitchell a password in Swanton High School Athletics. Johnny scored four touchdowns via this method and make Delta's passes look good by intercepting one of theirs and turning it into a touchdown. ,lohnny's only a Ir. and he will see lots of action next year. Donald Eicher Ham played a lot of tackle for the purple and white. After the death of Dale Paul, Eicher took over the punting duties. This was quite a task but Ham's punts kept the Bulldogs out of a lot of trouble. He's only a Jr. Richard Barnes Dick was a forty minute man at the guard position. He was one of the main- stays of the Swanton line and when he hit an op- ponent the opponent usually went down. He's only a sophomore and a lot will be expected of him next year. Earl Gearig a'Squirrel was another forty min- ute man holding down the center of the line. Earl was a good defense man and will be lost by gradu- ation. He will be missed next year. Robert Ashenfelter. Supporting Earl on the other side of the line was a good guard in the per- son of 6'Bob', Ashenfelter. 6'Bob's a senior who will be missed next year. Terrence Hallett Sherm proved to be a very valuable man at the other tackle post. Terry 'was a fine defensive player and excelled in dropping the opposition over his shoulder. Sherm will be back next year as he is only a Ir. JL Howard. JL rounded out the Purple and White at the end position. He had the task of replacing Dale Paul. He worked hard un- der the strain and did a very commendable job. He is only a Ir. and will help out a lot next year. Harlan Miller Curly was the sparkplug on offense and defense operating from the left half- i442 hack position. He did all the passing and most of the ground gaining. His passing resulted in four of Swanton's nine touchdowns and his running in an- other one. Miller is a Jr. but due to his enlistment in the Marines he will not be available next year. This is a loss that cannot be overlooked. Emerson Cole l'Dynamite was Swanton's fast charging fullback. He ripped off a lot of yardage that helped the Swanton cause considerably. Due to his speed and pass snatching ability he may be converted into an end. He's only a sophomore and should be a big help next year. Bruce Sharples Gang was Miller's running mate at the wingback position. He is a shifty back and in another year he'll be a fine back. He's a .lr. Joe Raab Speed was the only freshman to make the squad, taking over the close back or quar- terback post. ,Ioe is a triple threat star being able to kick, run and pass with equal ability. A lot will be expected of this young man next year. Robert Barnes Bob , the other half of the Barnes twins, alternated at the guard position with Ashenfelter. He was an excellent line backer. Ile- was exceptionally fast for a line man which helped in catching the opponents back behind the line of scrimmage. He's only a sophomore. Keith Clay Porky won his letter at thc tackle and center posts. He was the heaviest man on the squad and his weight came in handy in bringing down opposing ball carriers. He also is a sophomore. The 6'S', A. A. letter awarded annually by the Athletic Association to any member of the squad who had, in the opinion of the athletic staff, shown the greatest willingness to cooperateg was awarded to Warren Judson. Warren never missed a practice with the exception of one and that was due to an illness. Warren is a freshman, and a credit to S. H. S. athletics. xx. . . .Varsity Basketball Team Standing: Gearig, Bloom, Howard, Blake, Severin, Melotik Adams Seated: Mitchell, Sutherland, Langenderfer, McClure, Clay Born Kandik SHS UPPONICNT 27 Fidlon 2l l'errysluirg I0 Wlnwhouw 26 Meta rnora fill Delta 29 HoHand 20 Maumee S32 Delta ll! l'vrrysluirg 27 Fulton I-52 lVletamora IW Holland Ill Wliitelioiise I0 Nlauinee 22 liheny Cenwr 25 llossford 26 Tonrnainent-Vlaiiseon -'la-I9 Totals IWHN I7 lleleziis g45l TH I-Il I-125 32 30 -17 2-I4 23 -J 0 .Nl - ll- I3 .0 ulxl .1-1 26 5-l 3-lv Al-5 lil -16 003 Basketball . . . VARSITY '43 - Basketball Lettermen -'44 Ed. Sutherland, Capt. Sud , as well as being a good defensive man, led the offense with 119 points. Edis long shots were something to watch. He will be a valuable man next year. Albert Langenderfer. Bud , in his first year out earned a berth on the varsity, thanks to his speed, his defensive ability, and his good sense. He rolled up ll4 points and was very effective under the bucket. He's only a sophomore. ,lim Blake, Happy , was the only freshman to make the varsity. He played 7 games for the reserves until he was advanced. Due to his height lsix feet four and one-half inehest. he was very effective under the bucket. In his eight varsity games he made 39 points. Bill McClure, Butch',, like Blake, started out on the Reserves squad but after rolling up lfj points on Delta li team, he was advanced. Bill is a very good defense man and a good shot. In the l2 games he played he made 45 points. Bill is a junior and will see lots of action next year. Keith Clay. Porky , also started with the reserves but he soon convinced Coach Kandik that i463 he was made of Varsity stuff. Porky's special is down the middle of the floor, stop, and shoot. He is only a sophomore. Ken Born, Speed , after playing two years on the reserve squad, was advanced to the varsity. Kenny, after a slow start, got on the ball towards the end of the season and played some good bas- ketball. He is a junior. Joe Melotik, Meloy , playing his first year on the varsity after serving the reserve for two years, played good basketball in the pinches. Joe is hindered slightly by bad eyesight but was quite effective unde the basket. ,loe will be lost by grad- uation. Harold Bloom: Harold also was advanced from the reserve to the varsity. but due to an early season operation he didn't see much action. While in there he played hard. inspircd ball. He is also a senior. Earl Gearig, 'lSquirrel , like Bloom and Mcl- otik played two years on the B team. This year he was advanced to the varsity and played good ball while he was in there. He will not be back next year as he is a senior. . . .

They were Bob and Dick Barnes, Eicher. Terry Hallett, Haynes, Howard. Kreuz. Severin and Archie Vaughan. Coach Kandik was not interested in winning games as much as he was in developing plays. ln spite of this, their record was the best in S. H. S. in recent years. Coach Kandik has some fine play- ers in this groupg and they are the makings of fu- ture S. H. S. quintets which will once again make Swanton a power in high school athletics.
