When the site of the school was changed in l88Z, the commercial course was added. ln l924 the students of Pitt and Lrane townships were sent to one school which, with improve- ments, consists of the school we attend to- day. That same year, to accommodate all the students, the Senior High Building was built. A few years later students from Mif- flin township were sent here to attend the high school. ln i937 a section was built that connected the junior and senior high build- ings. lt is now known as the grade school section. The interior of most of our school house was painted in the summer of l944, which made our school the pleasant, attrac- tive one we now attend. We have seen that increase in attendance has made our school grow. From perhaps 30 students with 3 or 4 teachers, the enrollment has reached 466 plus a faculty of Zl. There are 55 subjects now taught, and 78 different courses. In spite of the snows and the coal short- age, the past year has showed a great ad- vancement in the progress of our school. For the first time in several years a Spanish Club lContinued on Page Twoi I 1' was organized, and a select choir of forty voices was chosen from a general chorus. This year our new superintendent intro- duced many novel features. First, there was the extra-curricular period, commonly known as the home room. During that period the G.R. and Hi-Y held their meetings, and the chorus groups rehearsed. Another activity in- stituted by Superintendent Rilling was the fifteen minute radio broadcast given by the home rooms over Station WMRN, Marion. These home rooms also had assembly pro- grams which included skits, plays, readings, and vocal and instrumental music. Plaques were presented at the end of each six weeks' period to home rooms with the best records in attendance, scholarship, and war bond and stamp sales. From this brief summary, it is easy to see that our school made great progress during the past year. --Joyce Clinger. 1945 ANNUAL CONTENTS Annual Staff .......................,..........,..... 4 Senior Class .... . 5 Junior Class ........... .... l O Sophomore Class ...... .... l 2 Junior High ......... .... l 4 Superintendent 20 Principals ....... .... 2 l Faculty ............ .... 2 2 Administration 24 Advertisements ..... .... 2 5 48 Music ......... .... 5 3 Sports .....,........ ....

On the following pages we of the annual staff have done our best to give you a living memorial of your school life for the past year. For our theme this year we have chosen some- thing that we believe to be representative of all our activities. Feet-that's it, just plain feet. We use them for almost everything we do. We walk to school, we walk at noon and between classes. We use our feet for sports, for dancing, and for all our work and fun. Why, our feet even have person- alityl We have happy feet, which skip merrily along, and we have tired feet, those dead ole' dogs. There are active feet, such as we see used in football or track. And of course, there is the kind of feet we all have nowadays-busy feet, busier than ever, war feet. That's the kind of feet we use when we walk to save gas, or when we work those extra hours at our job to do our bit for a lasting program of peace, founded on God-given principles. You all know about those feet and also about the feet of those away from home right now, fighting in the mud or on the cold steel of a ship, so that we can continue to have the most precious of all feet-the feet of a free people. As you can readily see, our feet are good actors and vivid indicators of our char- acter. With this in M' mind, the staff is sure that you will enjoy . reading the Annual much more. ln this year's book we have also tried to inject a bit of personal meaning for each student so that when he reads these pages, they will recall to him the pleasant days spent in, as we usually express ourselves, good old U.S.H.S. Our school has always meant a lot to us. Perhaps this is true not only because it is our greatest source of knowledge, but also because it is our best chance to make friends and learn to live, work, and play together. We owe much to our teachers who are always ready to help us no matter how much work it means for them, and we express our deepest appreciation for their showing us how. We sincerely hope the Annual holds many fond memories for both students and faculty. In conclusion . . . Thanks for your fine cooperation in helping us to get your H45 Annual ready, and for the oppor- tunity to serve as your staff. We enjoyed it tre- mendously. Cordially yours, it X.. - Tom voaEL. P FORW ANNUAL -T-F-F or '4 TRAMP, TRAMP, TRAMP. The feet of our staff were busy this year. Literally, we hoofed the way to our goal. We not only used feet as a theme for our Annual, but also used our own feet to good advantage. Yes, we footed it to sell ads, to take pic- tures, and distribute your Annual to you. It was work, brain and foot, and we loved it. Our hearts were in our iob, and as a result we really had super cooperation. Every one of us had his job to do. Our business staff did its part by selling ads, handling our finances, and distributing and selling copies of the Annual, while our editorial crew concentrated on getting pictures, write-ups of our classes, organizations, and activities, and generally preparing the book for publication. Our work began in the fall and that's when we really got-- on the ball. Mr. Todd, public relations officer of the Service Engraving Company, walked in one fine, sunny day and gave us our first pep talk. lt was shortly after this visit that our Edi- tor-in-Chief set to work on preparing the first draft of the -45 Annual. He drew, in miniature, the first blueprint, and sent it to our engraver for reproduction in full size. Before the engraver sent it back, the editor and photography staff had the Senior pic- tures and group pictures taken. By then Christmas was here, and the full-sized dummy of the Annual was back. During the Christmas vacation the busi- ness manager and her assistants began the selling of ads, and when school took up again more pictures were taken. Soon fin- ished pictures began rolling in from our photographers and the photography staff set to work mounting them for the engrav- er. All editors were on the alert for action, and copy began piling up for our typists to send to the printer. The end of February saw us just finishing our editorial work. The circulation staff was set in motion, toward the end of school, and they wound up our work for this year's annual. That's the story of how you got your Annual for 4'5, folks. Happy reading to you. P.S, The staff wishes to heartily thank our sponsor, Mr. Gottfried, for his fine guidance. He put real spirit behind our efforts.

Our class history may not be unique, but we Seniors are proud of it. Four long years ago, as Freshmen, we elected the following capable members from our Freshman Class for our class officers: Thomas Vogel, President, Jane Clinger, Vice President, Daniel Harvey, Secretary, and Dorothy Bowman, Treasurer. Aided by Miss Mamie Stearns and Mr. Fleeman, our spon- sors, these officers arranged a party in the fall that was enjoyed by Freshmen and tea- chers alike. As Sophomores, and now in Senior High, our executives who led us through the year were: Mary Alice Bastel, President, James Seim, Vice President, Mariam Swinehart, Secretary, and lsaac Walton, Treasurer. Our annual class party, held in the spring, was under the supervision of Mr. Wolfe and Mrs. Tucker, our sponsors. Busily selling refreshments at the football and basketball games, presenting a class play, Peg O' My Heart, and planning and giving a prom -you can see how busy we were as Juniors. Our prom was given in December instead of the Spring, because with many others, Edward Beard, our Junior President, left for the armed forces. Lorene Kellermeyer, elected Vice President, was the acting Presi- dent for the rest of the year. The other officers for the year were Phyllis Kuenzli, Secretary, and Thomas Vogel, Treasurer. Miss Golling and Miss Neumeister were our Junior Class sponsors. On our Senior year, we kept the scholar- ship plaque the entire first semester, an achievement to be envied by other grades. Guided by our sponsors, Miss Neumeister and Miss Erma Stearns, we c'hose James Seim as our Senior Class President, Jack Wilson as our Vice President, Jane Clinger as our Sec- retary, and Ida Smythe as our Treasurer. Our class play was given in the spring. Also, the Junior Class gave a beautiful prom in our honor in the spring near graduation time. With our graduation we end our history in this high school, when all 7l of us receive our diplomas. We go out into life with our years of high school training behind us, conl fident and ready to make our place in the world. Class Motto: Today We Follow, Tomorrow We Lead.

The rest of the officers were: Ron- ald Laack, Vice President, who left our school in December, Jane McBeth, Secretary, Robert Mowery, Treasurer, and the Executive Com- mittee consisted of James Leslie, Neva Gra- ham, and Margery Thiel. These students had a big job but made the grade with flying col- ors. The busy feet of the Junior Class started their long job of selling popcorn and candy at the first football game. Juniors have since had the concession stand at every football game and at all the basketball games. The class also sold orange and black beanies to all the enthusiastic students who wished to wear our school's colors. Several dances were sponsored by the class after the athletic events. The talented feet of the Junior students presented a three-act comedy entitled Al- most Summer on December the l9th, Radio programs on the High Reporter series were red to Columbusl Myers, J.

An assembly pro- gram was also presented by the willing Jun- iors. The boys put their swift feet in action pri. the football, basketball, track, and baseball teams this past year. The class boasted of eight top-ranking football players and seven members of the basketball team. When the track and baseball season rolled around, one found many pairs of cleated shoes filled with the feet of Junior boys. The dancing feet of the Juniors enter- tained the graduating class at a beautiful spring prom May the I8th. The auditorium was decorated in a manner complimentary to spring. The class was safely and happily led through another year of high school by the dignified feet of Miss Golling and Mrs. Tuck- er, our class sponsors. They helped us in every way to be better students. We of the Junior class wish to express our sincere Thanks to you, Miss Golling and Mrs. Tucker. . -Alice Hale and Fran Henige. Ek OPHO 0RE 'bn- 1.

As we look back upon our Sophomore year, we see nine months of stutly and good times. There was our class party back in Novem- ber for instance when we reall let ourselves I I go and had a good time. Do you remember how much everyone enjoyed our assembly program in January? The play Lawdiggers and all that came be- fore and went after it? Quite a number of students from the Sophomore Class made their radio debut on our school radio program which was broadcast weekly over Station WMRN, Marion.

We elected our class officers in the fall: Gene Rite as President, Dean McAllister as Vice President, Rachel Reamsnyder as Secre- tary, and Craig Gottfried as Treasurer. The executive committee was composed of Homer Mavis, Arden Moser and Wayne Ritterspach. The Sophomore Class was well represent- ed in nearly all of the extra-curricular activi- ties: band, orchestra, high school choir, chor- us, Girl Reserves, Hi-Y, F.F.A., and the Var- sity U. These and many others were the activities of the Sophomores in '44-'45. --Janice Kellermeyer. Os V FRESHNIEN - FRESHMA ASS President Willis Harvey Sec reta ry Wanda Va natta FIRST ROW: D.

The one hundred and tive Freshmen, under the direction of Mr. Frederick Koenig, Mr. Franklin Gottfried, and Mr. Frederick Flee- man were very busy this year. Because of the extra amount of talent, two radio programs were given by members of the class over Sta- tion WMRN, Marion-one on November Zl and one on November 28. To commemorate, the entrance of the United States into the Second World War, a patriotic assembly was presented by the ninth grade on December 7, 1944, for the upper six grades. Although they didn't win any prizes for attendance, scholarship, or the purchase of War Bonds and Stamps, they were in there pitching, The Vice President Agnes Hankins Treasurer Kenneth Smythe Moll, G.

Everyone was indeed pleased with the Fresh- man Chorus and glee club, organized and directed by Miss Mercedes Blue. Both ap- peared on several occasions, and, if we do say so ourselves, they were very good. Their class party, in the middle of March, was a big success and was enjoyed by everyone. AI- though the icy roads and bad weather played havoc with their studying, the Freshmen greatly enjoyed this school year. -Josephine Gibson, Wanda Vonatta, Anna Jane Ellis 'hm UNIOR HIGH -1-vm IX? an an 'H AQ 1 an W ., Q.

JUNIOR HIGH FACULTY and ADMINISTRATION Jnflw, ' UP RI This past year was Mr. Rilling's first year as sup- erintendent here, and a very successful year it has been. Many new features pertaining to school life have been in- troduced under his help- ful supervision. The graduating Senior Class hopes that the high school may enjoy many more such successful years under his guidance. The theme of the i945 annual brings to mind an inspiring passage written by Isaiah seven hundred years before the birth of Christ: How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of him that bringeth good tidings, that publisheth salvation, that saith unto Zion, Thy God reignethl You may not recall the steps of your child- hood and early youth, but they were the steps of skipping and running feet. Longfellow, the children's poet, speaks of The patter of little feet-. You trudged to school, some- times your steps were reluctant, sometimes carefree and gay. You found yourselves in the corridors and classrooms, on the athletic field and in the gymnasium, in the study halls and on the stage, in the library and the laboratory. Often your feet carried you on missions of kindness and trips of goodwill. Do you remember the days when your footsteps took you along the creek to inspect traps or to hunt? When you were on a path to the pasture for the cows or a trip to the woods for flowers? Happy were the daysl ln man's quest for knowledge, search for riches, longing for freedom, his footsteps have been directed into every part of the world. But time and time again he has marched to TE DET v George Rilling M.A. Ohio State University war. The feet of Paul Revere took him to the tower of the Old North Church. Frozen were the feet of General Washington's men at Val- ley Forge. In the North and in the South the march of many feet has been heard, the sound of marching feet is in our ears today. You, too, are facing a period in which there will be the measured military step of youth, the quiet step of the nurse, the soft step of the teacher, the busy step of the house- wife, the steady step of the farmer. Some will record their footprints on strange soil and in the sand of faraway places, others will walk on more familiar ground. He who can be trusted to carry the bur- dens and the responsibilities of the world does not have feet of clay. Of him who is worthy the psalmist says, Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly nor standeth in the way of sinners-. May you and I join with William Cullen Bryant in the conviction: He who, from zone to zone, Guides through the boundless sky thy certain flight, ln the long way that I must tread alone, Will lead my steps aright. May our steps be lead upon the paths of peace! -George Rilling. B.A. Capital University Mr. Houpt has been the prin- cipal of the Upper Sandusky High School for twenty-six years. We seniors wish him many more such successful years. Mr, Houpt this year holds the distinguished posi- tion of President of the North- ern Ohio High School League. ln his office at the west end of the second floor, Mr. Houpt as principal, takes care of all schedules for the high school students. ln the room adjoin- ing his office, he teaches his senior social science classes. Tickets for the game will be on sale- Every student has often heard this phrase or one like it as part of Mr. Cope's announcement about the sale of tickets. These announce- ments can be heard at pep meetings or seen on the block- boards in the study halls. They are only a minor part of Mr. Cope's job as President of the school's Athletic Association. For his seemingly unceasing la- bors on behalf of the school's sports, the whole school says, Well done, Mr. Cope. Mr. Cope is one of those rare tea- chers who teach one of their subjects with the aid of a work- book which they have helped edit, ln other words, Mr. Cope is one of the co-authors of the biology workbook he uses. Mr. Gottfried, who has been a sponsor for many Annuals, this year again had the task of ex- plaining the intricacies of edit- ing an Annual to another An- nual Staff. As usual, he made an ideal advisor. His Senior English classes are very much enjoyed because of the variety of interesting subjects touched upon besides the usual English grammar and literature. He has charge of all absence and tardy excuses. Almost every stu- dent, before he graduates, sometime or other has waited in his office in room 207. In almost every school, and ours is no exception, there is a tea- cher who has the enormous re- sponsibilities of being the Dean of Girls, Ours is Miss Golling. In our school, with some one hundred and seventy girls en- rolled in the upper four grades, Miss Golling is doing a superb jab. Although she teaches mainly commercial subjects, shorthand and typing, most, if not all, of the students are well acquainted with Miss Golling. L. H. HOUPT Principal B.S.

They mean happy days spent in study. They mean days of friendship, and good fellowship, and they mean days of instruction by kind teachers, always willing to do their best to give us a better chance in the world. We can never repay them, but we will do our best to spread our knowledge to others as our teachers so gen- erously did to us. Evelyn Neumeister B.A. Asbury College M.A. Ohio State U.

She might be typing, helping someone reclaim some lost items, answering questions put to her by students, conferring with Mr. Rilling, or breaking in a new student assistant. Miss Slemmer's official jobs are secretary to the superintendent, and Assistant Secretary- Treasurer of the local school board. As we Seniors have asked our share of questions, lost at least the usual number of items, and caused our share of trouble for Miss Slemmer, we do hereby will her all the time we have wasted in study halls since we were Freshmen.

They fought hard but the experience and sheer power of Richwood was a little too much. The next game was with Bucyrus and the Rams trampled them to avenge the only defeat of last year. The following week, in a hard-fought battle, Ada beat the Rams. Although Ada dominat- ed the field, the Rams fought stubbornly and refused to give up. Upper trucked to Crest- line and proved to be too much for the Rail- roaders. Rife's four touchdowns, Smalley's broken field runs, and the fine defensive play of the line earned the victory. Next the Rams journeyed to Bellevue, where they were de- feated. The Rams managed to keep the game on an even tilt for the first half, but in the second half the aerial attack, Dudley to Green, broke up the Rams' defenses. Calvert prom- ised to give our boys a real battle but the Rams fooled them and won by a safe margin. Dave Busick stole the show in the Upper- Marysville game, scoring five touchdowns as the Rams rolled to an easy victory. The Rams journeyed to Willard to win a hard-fought battle. The Rams couldn't get going because of the many penalties called. ln the game of the year, Upper played host to Carey and de- feated them in a well-earned hard-fought bat- tle. The slippery field caused many fumbles and slowed down Upper's fast backs. This ended another successful season for our team and much of the praise should be given to Coach Sampson as well as the team. RSl-TY ji- B- -1112001111 CENTERS: J. Schultz, R.

The boys al ways played with every ounce of energy that was in them and with a true sense of sports manship. Their record speaks for itself Coach Sampson and the boys deserve much praise.

The high- light of the year was the annual Varsity U Football Banquet at which Tom Snyder and Coach Carroll Widdoes of Ohio State Univer- sity were guest speakers. Following this they had a Christmas Dance in the local auditor- ium. At the conclusion of the basketball season the Varsity U honored the basket- ball squad with a banquet at the Bow and Arrow. Player awards were presented to the tol- lowing outstanding players of the year: Cap- tain-elect Gerald Thiel, most valuable line- man, and Gene Rite, most valuable backfield- man.

Whenever some lively mu- sic was needed during pep rallies and basket- ball games, our classy pep band was called upon, and it responded with great eagerness. This morale-building organization was select- ed from the Senior Band to supply the spirit of victory necessary for our boys in their bas- ketball games, the pep band was ready when the students came into the gym, and started the rallies with a snappy tune. Then, when all was over, the band would play the School Song, and the students would leave to the music ofa chaser. That night at the game, the band would play while the two teams were practicing, then immediately before the starting whistle, the members would strike up the High School Song, and the game would begin. This was the most inspiring moment for the players for they knew the student body was behind them. This spirit continued throughout the game by the band's playing between quarters. These boys and girls of the pep band were selected for their musical ability and spirit of vitality which kept festivities at the peak of merriment. The team, cheerleaders, and fans say to you, Thanks, gang l DANCERS GLIDE TO RHYTHM OF SWING FIVE. With the Swing Five playing soft mu- sic, who can resist stepping onto the dance floor? These five talented lads have devel- oped one of the most popular organizations in our school. By practicing diligently, the orchestra became very versatile and its ser- vices were wanted not only in the school, but for outside activities as well. The debut of the Swing Five was made at the Varsity U dance, and immediately the band was a success, Later the swingsters played for dances held after basketball games, among these was the G.R. dance. The band had many outside engagements. It journeyed to Bucyrus and Galion, one of the local achievements was the band's enter- FIVE taining at the Tri-Sigma play. The boys, all specialists on their respec- tive instruments, had a wide variety of musi- cal selections. For those who wished to have soft, slow music, the strains of Solitude were just the thing. The band was in the groove when it played Basic Boogie for our talented jitterbugs. Spike Jones had nothing on our own city slickers, for when novelties were needed, the boys could really put on a zany show. Can any of you who attended the Varsity U dance ever forget Avalon ? The students of U.S.H.S. wish to thank the Swing Five for its splendid job. You were a valuable asset to our high school organiza- tion, we bid you good luck in your field of music!

What would a football game be without our fine marching band en- gaging in the festivities7 Mr. Assenheimer's organiza- tion composed of 6l members turned in some spectacu- lar performances at the halttimes. lt entertained at all the games played on our athletic field, and accompan- ied the team and fans to Bellevue when we played the Redmen. By practicing diligently for an hour each day of the football season, the best known of our musical organiza- tions was able to maneuver through many intricate formations on game nights. These were performed with skill and precision that other bands find difficult to master. The spectators at the gridiron contests were always pleasantly surprised at each new formation. A well- liked feature of each program was a formation which included participation by the fans. They were asked to sing such old fvaorites as Let Me Call You Sweet- heart, Down by the Old Mill Stream, and Daisy Bell. Or the band would come forth with an unex- pected tune, like Hold That Tiger. Our band would have been lost if it had not been for someone to lead it while on the field. This position was capably filled by Drum Maiorette, Nancy Hagen- maier. Nancy led the band in all its marching and she was the key to all the formations. The band's presence was noticed elsewhere, also. lt played for political rallies and bond drives, being on call any time of day to serve the community. Open House night was also on the list of achievements for the band. lt opened and closed the program and pre- sented several selections. After the football season, practices were held three times a week. A few instruments were changed, and we had a concert band. This band concentrated on con- cert music and made several public appearances. On May 4, it iourneyed to Gallon and participated in a band festival with Calion, Crestline, and Bucyrus. On two consecutive Sunday afternoons in May, concerts were given at the Harrison Smith Park in Upper Sandus- ky. A very large gathering enioyed the music. We, the Senior members of the band, wish to ex- press our appreciation to Mr. Assenheimer for his guid- ance through the years. He gave most of us our start in music and gave us lessons. After we had learned the fundamentals, he placed us in Junior Band and we were given more training. Then we reached our goal- Senior Band. Now as we are about to leave U.S.H.S. we say to you, Mr. Assenheimer, thank you, and to the other members of the band, good luck. E IOR ORCHE TR VIOLINS: J. Seim, L, Kellermeyer, R. Swartz, R.

The occasion was the annual orchestra festival an April 20. The orchestras were entertained by Bucy- rus High School because unfortunately there is no or- chestra in the school, and the festival was able to arouse interest. Other schools participating were Gal- ion, Crestline, Norwalk, Bellevue, and Willard. A great deal of difficulty was met when the question of trans- portation were presented, but it was successfully over- come, and the orchestra accomplished its purpose. A large following accompanied the organization and great- ly enioyed the program. T. Reber, P. Wagner, J. Kellermeyer, J. Constein, BAS- SOON: F. Fleeman, CORNETS: E. Kuenzli, A.

Rehearsals were held on Tuesdays and Thursdays immediately following the homeroom period. Because of the band's using all the periods during football sea- son, these rehearsals were not begun until November. With careful practice, this diligent group developed into an accomplished organization which won the ad- miration and praise of fellow students, teachers and visitors. During the year the orchestra, composed of thirty- one members, played for several school functions. We, the Senior members of the orchestra, wish to say thank you and goodbye to the remaining members. We shall never forget the years of practice and close association we have had with you. Continue your fine labor, and you will never regret it. MEMBERS OF JUNIOR BAND B. Arter, E. Beaston, D. Crum, L. Dillon, C. Fleeman, H. Hale, W. Harvey, R. Irvin, P. Kimmel, T. Kimmel, N. Kinley, W.

The members of the Jun- ior Band have set for themselves a goal- -Senior Band. These talented younger members of our school wish to fill the shoes of the graduating members of the band. The Junior Band is seldom seen in public, but those of us who are leaving can assure you that we are confident of their musical ability. This can be attested to by anyone who has had the privilege of hearing them prac- ticing during their assigned period. We wish the greatest luck and success to our young musicians. Their goal of Senior Band includes following in the footsteps of their predecessors and main- taining the high standards that have been set. We have great faith in you, boys and girls, so continue your fine work. 55 CHORUS LARGEST ORGANIZATION OF ITS KIND IN SCHOOL'S HISTORY When Mr. Assenheimer issued the call for chorus, he was very pleasantly surprised. His call was answered by IZO students from the upper three grades. This was very gratifying to the director, for it showed a definite increase in the students' interest in music. The first task was to try out the voices and put them in the section for which they were best suited. Those persons who had previous experience in choral singing, or who were better singers were placed in the select choir. The remaining singers were not discouraged, and continued in the chorus. This group met twice a week during home room period. At first, it was difficult for such a large number to sing together, but with diligent practice and help from the choir members, the voices were soon blended together surprisingly well. Because of the choir's using all available practicing time, the chorus did not really begin serious rehearsals until February. New books were purchased especially for the chorus's use. Most of the singing was of Ameri- can folk songs. The members who were not in choir received valu- able training, and we are sure they will make able re- placements for the Seniors who are leaving. Much cre- dit is due Mr. Assenheimer for his patience in working with such a large group. We hope that the students will continue showing such interest in chorus, and we are sure they will receive valuable training for future work in the choir. JUNIOR CHORUS RENDERS OL' MAN RIVER FOR OPEN HOUSE BROADCAST As one of the features of the Open House program, twenty girls from the Freshman Class sang OI Man River and Springtime. They were part of the larg- est musical organization of its kind in the history of the High School. When Miss Blue asked for members for the Junior Chorus, she was answered by l23 eager students. Since all of these young singers could not practice at the same time, because of the space required, they were divided into three choruses. One chorus was begun in each of the seventh, eighth, and ninth grades. The seventh grade possessed the largest of the three choruses, forty-eight members. Part of the seventh grade chorus sang for the radio program pro- duced by Miss Mamie Stearns. Another section of this chorus presented some selections for Mrs. Tucker's ra- dio program. The whole seventh grade chorus sang for the community institute. There were thirty-six members in the eighth grade chorus. A group of these from 8B sang when their home room presented a chapel program, and another group sang three numbers on Miss Neumeister's radio pro- gram. The Freshman chorus was composed of thirty-nine members. This group sang for the Freshman chapel program. A few boys and girls from the chorus presented selections on Miss Blue's chapel program in March. The choruses met once or twice during their activity periods. They encountered one, two, and three, and some four part singing during the year. All of their time was not used in singing, for they received valuable study in music appreciation. Miss Blue has proven herself to be a very capable director for the young people. She has given them two goals-senior chorus and choir. Because of her fine work, the Seniors are assured that there will be compe- tent replacements for them in next year's chorus and choir. F.F.A. WINS COUNTY JUDGING CONTEST The Future Farmers of America organized with the fol- lowing set-up: President, Eugene Plott, Vice President, Donald Sweigard, Secretary, James Leslie, Treasurer, Wayne Ritterspachp and Reporter, Donald Clabaugh. Early in the fall the new members were thoroughly in- itiated, this brought the total membership to forty- five. At the country fair the local F.F.A. had the most entries and the largest representation over other county F.F.A.'s. Monthly meetings were held at the school in the evening. At noons they participated in the intra- mural sports. Six local boys competed for State Farm- er, an honor given to boys with high scholastic and farming records. First place in the County Judging Con- test was awarded to this group for their fine iudging ability. The Parlimentary Procedure Contest was an- other goal strived toward. The Parent-Son Banquet, which was one of the finest ever held, was a feature of their mid-winter activities, while a radio program was presented in the spring. During the summer months the boys used a sheep-dipper which they had made to help local farmers. Mr. John Borton faithfully led the group through these and their many other activities. CHOIR OF SELECTED VOICES LEND BEAUTY TO CHAPEL PROGRAMS Our choir has sung during many chapel programs, and it has greatly added to the beauty and dignity of the festivities. Many people have expressed their pleasant surprise at having heard the way these young voices have been blended to such a high degree. These young people, forty in all, were chosen from the larger chorus. They sang very difficult melodies, and gained a wide variety of musical selections. On April 6, our choir entertained the choirs of Bucy- rus, Galion, and Crestline in a choral festival. A very large number of music lovers attended the festival, and left thrilled by the beautiful music they had heard. lt is seldom that the opportunity comes for our school to be host at such an event, and we wish to thank all those who helped make possible such an occasion. Practices were held on Mondays and Thursdays dur- ing the homeroom periods. These rehearsals lasted for only one-half an hour, but these young vocalists made the most of their time, and produced many pleasing hymns and folk songs. Because the members were chos- en by Mr. Assenheimer himself, only the best singers were in the choir, and rapid progress was made with each song. All of this would have been impossible without the untiring efforts of our director, Mr. Assenheimer. He molded the voices together and showed a wise selection of music. We seniors hope that this music society will long be continued, for some of our most pleasing memories will be those of chorus and choir. EL CLUB AMISTAD ORGANIZES The Spanish Club was organized under the efficient lead- ership of our Spanish teacher, Mrs. Katherine Tucker. The name El Club Amistad was chosen and Adelan- te, Siempre Adelante, which means Forward, always forward, is the motto. The officers were elected as follows: President, Joyce Clingerj Vice President, Phyllis Kuenzli, and Secretary, Helen Logsdon. The monthly meetings are held during Spanish Class, and the mem- bers must speak in Spanish. SENIOR G.A.A. SPONSORS INTRAMURAL TOURNAMENTS The Senior Girls Athletic Association elected the follow- ing officers for the i944-i945 school year: President, Joan Ulrich, Vice President, Annabelle Mills, Secre- tary, Mildred Russell, and Treasurer, Deon Rowland. The executive committee was composed of Mariam Swinehart, Social Chairman, and Neva Graham and Shirley Blaser, Intramural Managers. Miss Helen Hull promoted the work to a great extent. Semimonthly meetings were held during the activity period. The main diversions of the year were the girls' intramural tour- naments in volleyball, basketball, and bowling. The teams were composed of girls from the physical educa- tion classes. The G.A.A. participated in other indoor sports suchas- badminton, ping-pong, and shuffle board as well as in outdoor sports such as softball, soccer base- ball, and horseshoe. Several hikes were enjoyed during the fall. In May the organization held its annual May Day program at which the king and queen, a senior boy and girl, presided. Boy and girl attendants were chos- en from the upper six grades. The purpose of this or- ganization is to promote an interest in athletics and to develop skill in the various sports for girls. JUNIOR G.A.A. ORGANIZES The third year of the Girls Athletic Association under the leadership of our instructor, Miss Helen Hull, has been successful. The membership consists of girls in the seventh, eighth, and ninth grades. Meetings were held during the activity period. In May this organization helped make the Moy Day program a success. The of- ficers were: Mary Lou Myers, President, Jackie Gillen, Vice President, Carol Fischer, Secretary, and Barbara Arter, Treasurer. The executive committee consists of Wanda Vannatta, Ruth Ann Orians, and Lavern Wil- liams. G.R. HOLDS CANDLELIGHT SERVICE Under the capable guidance of Miss Lucy Hetzel and as- sisted by Miss Helen Hull, the Girl Reserves enjoyed a very good year. Our officers were: Lorene Kellermeyer, President, Joan lams, Vice President, Jane Clinger, Sec- retary, and Beatrice Arnold, Treasurer. These officers efficiently led the group of eighty-two senior high girls. G.R. Susies, the average Girl Reserves, strove toward our motto, To find and give the best, and our slogan, To face life squarely. Our semi-monthly meetings were held during the activity period, and were conducted by the various members on selected topics for each month. These meetings have included skits, round table discus- sions, guest speakers, a birthday party, and a Christmas party. All members were given G.R. pins at the induc- tion service in the fall. Many of the girls ordered rings, too. Highlights of the year were the gypsy hike, the rally held for the officers and cabinet member at Tiffin, the very beautful candlelight induction service in the school auditorium at which our mothers were present, a G.R. and Hi-Y party in the spring, and the Senior Fare- well given by the younger members in honor of the grad- uating Seniors. Although our social affairs were limited, those we held were very excellent. We who leave the G.R. with the class of '45 are glad for what it has meant to us. May this character-building organization never lose sight of its high ideals as expressed in our code. Gracious in manner Impartial in judgment Ready for service Loyal to friends Reaching toward the best Earnest in purpose Seeing the beautiful Eager for knowledge Reverent to God Victorious over self Ever dependable Sincere at all times. THE HI-Y GIVES A ROUSING INITIATION TO ITS NEW MEMBERS The Hi-Y, an organization formed for the purpose of promoting Christian character, creating and maintain- ing high standards of living in the community and the school, was led through another successful year with the following officers: Lloyd Eatherton, President, Jack Mc- Eldowney, Vice President, Daniel Harvey, Secretary- Treasurer. Mr. Russell Wolfe was the capable advisor for the first semester, while Mr. Earl Shaffer guided the club during the second semester. A rousing initiation was administered to the new members, who brought the total membership to fifty-five. Meetings were held every two weeks during the activity period. The Hi-Y enjoyed a picnic in the spring. UNIOR PL Y ON THE STAGE IT' AQMPQT SUMMER The first act finds Paul Stephenson in a dith- er. He is told that he can't go to the lakes un- less he gets a 95 in the final history exam. lf he does not, off to summer school he must go to prepare to enter the university in the fall. Jane, his girl friend, tells him to get busy and get a recommendation from Mr. Smudgely, the headmaster of schools. That is exactly what he tries to do. Instead he gets a bill for a smashed fender! In the second act Paul and Jack, his schoolmate, who also is in the same predica- ment, cram like fury for the indispensible 95. Jack decides that he will go with King Kram- er, a pal, and steal the marked teacher's copy and get the answers that way. He borrows CAST Paul Stephenson ...,,.,.........,.........
