jim, fnmet 79 0 uh Jule JDM ll l Y X is 5 sl f HQAZS ' Volume XXIX Published by the SENIOR CLASS OF BELLEVUE HIGH SCHOOL Bellevue, Ohio I in To Miss Adeline Wright, whose en- thusiastic efforts have been of invalu- able aid to the students of BHS. To Miss Wright, who has helped make a continuous diary of the school. She has advised sixteen Comet staffs since l934. When the school newspaper, The Dial, was born ten years ago, it was Miss Wright who was instrumental in making it possible. To Miss Wright, we, the class of l95O, gratefully dedicate this Comet.

Here are ninety-two pages waiting for pictures and scribbling and records. We have lots to do, with homework, classes, and extra activities of all kinds, but we promise to put down all the im- portant events that we'll be enjoying this year and to write in our diary as often as we can. We want to make a vivid record of the i949-l95O year at BHS. And so, armed with pens, paste, pic- tures, ideas, and these blank pages, we begin our Comet Diary. 12, ' wn, ' -............... PML UMM Vi, X .ig Q K K ,A Q- af, nl, and ' ML lim ' Ache We all started talking at once with our friends whom we haven't seen all summer. After finding our home rooms, we visited each class and received brief assignments. BHS seemed to have a special welcome for us. The hall floors gleamed with fresh coats of waxy some of the classrooms were bright with new coats of paintg and the flawless study hall tables invited us to make good use of them. Such good f- grooming and care is the ,ff ' K ag reason that strangers are lr so surprised to hear BHS is twenty years old. Why, right now, a pic- ture of our school is trav- eling about the country on the wall of one of the new ,....W,,Q,, is Nickel Plate passenger me coaches.

Qtimf At school early today we stopped in the office. The two Virginias were re- ally rushed by the avalanche of students buying pencils, paper, and workbooks. Lots of our friends were sitting on the steps, so we went out to visit with them before class. Cars were lined up in front of the building for a long wait until the noon rush. lmal Soon the first bell rang and we hur- ried inside, eager to begin the first full day of school. Mr. C-lasgo made his announcements, and it was time for the first class. Some freshmen got lost, and no wonder-the corridors were like Grand Central Station! Later, in study hall, we realized the first day of school was really in progress. 'W' No.5 . 9 jvdaq, wp, . . . SUPERINTENDENT PRINCIPAL K We! r alia., When we stopped in the Superintendent's of- fice this morning we learned that both Mr. Swigart and Mr. Clasgo are graduates of Deni- son University, and both received their masters degrees at Ohio State University. No wonder they make such a good administrative team! In the superintend- ent's office we snapped a picture of Mrs. Vir- ginia Sabo, secretary to Superintendent Swigart, as she worked at the BOARD OF EDUCATION Reitz, Shumaker, Erf, Kistler, Vogel, Greenslade.

Then we took a pic- ture in the principal's office. At the desk in the foreground Miss Alice Beiler, Mr. Glas- go's secretary, was checking records. Through the open parti- tion-window, lvlr. Glas- go could be seen work- ing on plans for the year. .1 Jw ALLEN EDWARD ALLEN B.A., Denison University Boys' Physical Education, Science JOE AYERS B.A., Ohio Northern Univ.

The diary theme was suggested today, but everyone is busy thinking up more ideas until we vote to choose the one that will work out best. With the art staff drawing sketches and the rest of us writing sample articles, we are get- ting good ideas.

She was talking about the tentative plans being made today by Mr. Krumm and Mr. Rosenthal for the junior High Music Festival to be held some time in February. lt will feature a seventh and an eighth grade chorus and the Junior High band. Junior High students have been called the sub-debs of B.H.S. because they participate in many high-school activities. Several of their classes are held in B.H.S., and they attend almost all assemblies. Moreover, they have their own column in the Dial, writing the material themselves under the direction of Mrs. Glasgo. junior High boys and girls are proud of their winning basketball team and of their own band. od.. is ighth, 1 1 , , , S 2 -19 f '-' W ' 'J' N . eftf -if I lm , iL- gl,-iLf,fg..N s N ,J S 4 r, Q I I .

Our profits lwe hope, about SS300l will go to the Comet fund.

Tonight we played our last football game of the year. Bright lights, crisp cold air, shouting crowds, martial band music, and tense crowds, as the teams smashed up and down the field-but although the graduating seniors fought hard to win their last football game for B.H.S., the heavier Port Clinton Red- skins were too much for them. This is a good time to enter a record of the entire football season. Although one win, three ties, and five losses may not seem im- pressive, team and coaches never lost their fighting spirit, and loyal fans kept attendance at the games high. 11. 7 7 I fm, alwui, !nmi6alL SENIOR LETTERMEN Co-Captain, DON BALDWIN, end. Baldy battled his way through three years of foot- ball to become one of the most powerful ends in the league. His all-around ability was recognized when he was selected first-string all-league right end. Co-Captain, TERRY RUPPERT, full-back. Terry's battering line smashes have been hard on the enemy for the past two years. Coupled with this was his skill as a defensive line- backer. GUY BERETICH, end. California proved an exceptionally fast end, especially on de- fense. Because of his speed, he was good at making tackles behind the scrimmage line. BILL CUDNIK, half-back. Bill was a hard worker who played mostly on defense. Time and again, Bill came from his line-backer position to nab a runner behind the line of scrimmage. BOB DUNN, guard. Always a tough man to handle, You-All was especially good on defense. His ability to break through and block punts was recognized by many opposing coaches. DICK HICKMAN, half-back. Dick, the brains of the team, proved himself to be a flashy half-back, often breaking into the open for long gains. Dick also did the punting chores. SENIOR LETTERMEN MELVIN KOCH, half-back. Mel was one of the hardest driving backs in the league, and his end runs were thrilling to watch. He also was excellent on pass defense. ARDYN LONG, end. Art was on the re- ceiving end of most of the passes completed this year, often making what seemed to be impossible catches. SAN DY NASONTI, quarterback. Sandy completed spectacular passes many times this year. His ball handling was excep- tional, and he did some fine running from the single-wing back formation. RICHARD RUFFING, guard. Dopey overcame a size disadvantage to become a good guard. He often moved out bigger op- ponents on offense, and his submarine was hard to stop on defense. CLAUDE SPRINGER, tackle. Rodney could always be counted on to play a steady game. His most spectacular performance was galloping 40 yards for a touchdown after intercepting a pass in the Willard game. TED BALL, manager. Unable to partici- pate in football his last year, Ted stayed with the team in a new capacity.

The Bellevue gridiron team scored 96 points as compared to 149 for the opposition. Coach Wolfe's squad placed one man on the first string Northern Ohio League team, while three grid- ders received honorable mention. Sam DeBlase and Dick Keeler were chosen as co-captains for the 1950 season. Sept. 11 : Bellevue, 6-Fremont St. joe, 6 Coming from behind, the Redmen managed to push over a tying touchdown in the last quarter. The boys played a good defensive game but did not produce enough offense when near pay-dirt. Sept. 23: Upper Sandusky, 20-Bellevue, 8 jumping off to an early lead, the Upper Sandusky boys were never passed. Our only score in the first half came when Bob Dunn broke through and blocked a punt so that the ball rolled over their goal line. Our other score came in the third quarter when DeBlase went over for a touchdown. Sept. 30: Bellevue, 6-Crestline, 0 Displaying improved ball handling, the Redmen captured their first league win before 2,000 fans at Crestline. Terry Ruppert was the hero of the game because of his good work in the last quarter. The B.H.S, gridders push- ed over in the fourth quarter for their score in the thrilling ball game. Oct. 7: Willard, 26-Bellevue, 20 A third quarter rally gave Willard the vic- tory after the underdog Redmen had held the lead for almost the whole game. Oct. 14: Norwalk, 13-Bellevue, 12 Coming from behind in the closing minutes, the Norwalk Truckers rammed over to win a close game. Because the Redmen suffered a number of injuries, they were forced to play a defensive game during the last half. Oct. 21: Shelby, 28--Bellevue, 12 Long end runs and deceptive line plunges by Shelby spelled defeat for the Bellevue boys, although thy were playing before a large home-coming crowd. Oct. 27: Bellevue, 13-Galion, 13 Again coming from behind, the fighting Bellevue Redmen team held the Galion Tigers, 13 to 13. Hickman, Koch, Nasonti, and Rup- pert sparked the backfield, while Dutch Baldwin and Siesel held the line in a rough- and-tumble contest. Nov. 4: Bellevue, 12-Bucyrus, 12 Not until the third quarter of a thrill-pack- ed contest at Bucyrus was a score made. Each time Bellevue pushed over, Bucyrus did the same, minutes later. The local gridders gained more yards than Bucyrus, but the score board showed a tie. Nov. 11: Bellevue, 7-Port Clinton, 31 Although they had tried to finish the sea- son on a successful note, the Bellevue Red- men were defeated by the power-laden team from Port Clinton, 31 -7. lt was the last game for eleven seniors. Hickman made the last BHS touchdown of the season. lf Reserve games have anything to do with it, the Redmen will have a good team next year. They beat Norwalk, 31-20, and edged Fremont St. joe, 6-0, in two exciting contests. The local JayVees piled up 37 points to the opponents' 26 in the two games. pldlp- 11 78 jim Divine, Jima, We have just arrived home from seeing The Divine Flora , a lively comedy by Flor- ence Ryerson and Colin Clements.

But the food was delicious! Chairmen were Rita Herman, Pat Miller, and Marlene Fryar, with Miss Mouser as adviser. The Future Homemakers have many plans for the remainder of the year, including a semi-formal dance in the spring and a Mother- Daughter Banquet, May 3. We are looking forward to our cherry-pie- baking contest. I wonder who will be our queen? Later: Bellevue's pie queen turned out to be Anna Wise, a sophomore. Her pies are yummy!

Ass:MsLY The minutes of today's meeting of the Zellah Bell Club of Future Teachers of Amer- ica were packed full of accounts of the activi- ties of the last few weeks and of plans for the future. Everyone is happy over the success of our special assembly, when we formed a panel to explain the needs of a four-mill levy in the support of the Bellevue schools. The people of Bellevue passed it with a good ma- jority on November 8, and we think we helped. All ot us have had the opportunity to ob- serve classes in grade buildings, as well as to assist as student teachers now and then. We received our membership pins at a re- cent meeting. Programs for our luncheon meetings include talks by several alumni as well as by members ofthe present group. When our sponsors, the members of Delta Kappa Gamma, entertained Future Teachers from neighboring towns, we were happy to assist. Guest speaker was Dr. Virginia San- derson of Ohio State University.

Crowds flocked to the fortune-telling booth, the fish pond, the ring toss, and the dart throw. How they went for that homemade fudge! High spot of the evening was the auction when all kinds of things were sold-chances to wear sweaters of some of the boys, shoe shines by Fenton Wolfe, or a cherry pie baked by the I949 champion. Most important, we counted up big profits after lots of fun! Last month our club sponsored the annual Christmas Formal at which a king and a queen of Good Will were crowned. We are now looking forward to our Easter party for the orphans. And soon we'll be electing new officers who will attend summer camps and bring back new ideas for even finer Y-Teen projects.

WHO MADE THAT LAST BASKET? WE SEW A FINE SEAM. JUNIOR ASSEMBLY: GIBSON GlRL MITCHELL THE BARBERSHOP FOUR OH, THOSE FLAPPER DAYS March 77 601910, ' ' lust a week ago tonight there was great excitement as the fighting Bellevue Redmen under Coach loe Ayers became sectional champions, as the result of winning three straight games in the Sandusky tourney. lSee the pictures taken just after we received the trophy.l Then tonight the Redmen brought home the runners-up trophy from the district tour- ney at Toledo, although they lost to Toledo Whitmer. Thus, this year's team advanced exactly as far as last year's team and proved once more that the Redmen are dynamite in tournament play. All this pleased team and fans, since the regular season had resulted in only seven wins to eleven losses. TH E SEASON Nov. 25: Bellevue, 33-Alumni, 40 Victims of a last quarter rally, the Bellevue boys ended on the short end of a 40-33 score. Sandy Nasonti scored the first point for Bellevue. Dec. 2: Bellevue, 43-Bowling Green, 30 Getting off to a fast start, the Redmen out- scored a lanky crew from Bowling Green by I3 points. Don Adams, junior forward, paced the attack with I4 markers. Dec. 3: Bellevue, 28-Findlay, 46 The Ayersmen ran up against a stone wall when they encountered Findlay's tight de- fense. Don Adams, Sam DeBlase, and Ted Ball were the only cagers able to make two pointers in the tilt. Dec. 9: Bellevue, 58-Upper Sandusky, 59 Despite a tremendous last quarter rally, the Bellevue boys lost a heartbreaker in their first league tilt. Don Adams, with 22 points, paced the scoring. Dec. 16: Bellevue, 42-Willard, 43 Although they had been in the lead when only two seconds remained, the Ayersmen lost their second straight one-pointer when Bob Thorton tossed in a long shot. Dec. 20: Bellevue, 43-Norwalk, 31 After a close first half, the Redmen stead- ily pulled away from the Norwalk club to win by a convincing 43-3I score. Sandy Nasonti and Don Adams sparked the quintet with I6 and I4 points. Dec. 29: Bellevue, 42--Fremont, 37 By virtue of an overpowering second and third quarter, the Bellevue cagers, sparked by Sandy Nasonti, outplayed the Fremont Ross quintet, 42-37, in the first night of the Christ- mas basketball carnival. Dec. 30: Bellevue, 33--Ashland, 39 ln the finals of the Christmas Carnival, the Redmen were dumped by a high-flying quintet from Ashland, 39-33. Sandy Nasonti led the scoring with I3 points. lan. 6: Bellevue, 34-Port Clinton, 41 Art Long and Sandy Nasonti's 21 points were not sufficient to offset a well-balanced P. C. club, and the locals were handed their sixth defeat by the lake city boys. Jan. 13: Bellevue, 37-Galion, 42 Unable to quell the Galion fourth quarter uprising, the Ayersmen lost another league contest, although Art Long, lanky center, tossed in I7 points. Jan. 17: Bellevue, 34--Mansfield, 69 ln their worst drubbing of the season, the Redmen lost to Vern Hoffman's fine five. Mansfield later went to the state quarter- finals before losing to Springfield, I950 State champs. All-Ohio Ken McCally's I9 points were too much. Jan. 20: Bellevue, 36--Shelby, 50 Art Long and Sam DeBlase tried valiantly, but Dick Utz, Shelby star, helped the Whip- pets steadily pull away from the Redmen un- til the score read, 50-36. Ian. 27: Bellevue, 49-Bucyrus, 41 Victory at last! The Ayersmen surged from behind to capture an important NOL league victory from the, then, first-place Bucyrus cagers. Nasonti paced the attack with I4 points. -- mqumb' a1L X. TOP ROW: Joe Serraino, Guy Beretich, Charles Siesel, Ralph Eisenhauer, Jim Windsor, Clem Koselke, MIDDLE ROW: Jack Drexel, Ted Ball, Sam DeBlase, S lan. 31 : Bellevue, 47-Fremont, 53 The underdog Fremont cagers pulled a sur- prising fourth quarter rally which stunned the over-confident Redmen to the tune of 53-47. Art Long and Dick Hickman kept the Redmen in the ball game. Feb. 3: Bellevue, 56--Port Clinton, '59 Playing the Redskins to a standstill in three quarters, the Redmen might have turned the tables had they been able to hold the pace in the third canto. Bill Belshaw made the dif- ference as he sank 24 important points. Feb. 4: Bellevue, 49-Elyria, 47 For once the Redmen fought off a last quarter rally to defeat a rangy crew from Elyria. Nasonti led the attack with 16 points, followed by Adams with ll. 4' 1? CHAMPIONS andy Nasonti, Glenn Hire, Louis Smith. BOTTOM ROW: Tom Adams, Coach Ayers, Art Long, Don Adams, Dick Hickman. Feb. 10: Bellevue, 61-Crestline, 54 In their sixth win, the Redmen rang up a season high, as nine players entered the scor- ing column. Don Adams led the list with 16 counters, mostly accounted for by brilliant drive-in shots. Feb. 14: Bellevue, 47--Sandusky, 61 With tour players scoring in the double digits, the Sandusky Blue, Streaks pulled away from a determined Bellevue five to win by 14 points. Art Long's eight fielders were high for the Ayers-coached squad. Feb. 17: Bellevue, 77-Norwalk, 58 The Bellevue Rockets literally exploded on a hapless Norwalk five who could do noth- ing but watch the ball go through the hoop. Apparently Sandy Nasonti couldn't miss, for he rang up a seoson's high ot 23 points in the last regular game of the season. ,--- mtcthclw --- THE TOURNAMENT ' Feb. 28: Bellevue, 47-Tiffin Columbian, 38 The Bellevue Redmen sprang a surprise on favored Tiffin, as the BHS cagers played aa- gressive heads-up ball. Sam DeBlase sank I3 points in this important tilt. March 2: Bellevue, 60-Port Clinton, 56 Sparked in a late rally by Ralph Eisen- hauer, the sensational Bellevue hardcourt squad outfought a red-hot P.C. entry. Dick Hickman, ball handling specialist, came through with l3 important points. March 4: Bellevue, 44-Willard, 40 Redmen Upset Top-Seeded Willard. So the headlines read as the Cinderella team came through again. Adams, Nasonti, Long, DeBlase, Hickman, Eisenhauer, and Ball, all contributed as the unpredictable Redmen ac- complished the impossible, winning the Sectional Championship. March ll : Bellevue, 43-Toledo Whitmer, 68 Unable to overcome a 27-point first-half deficit, the Bellevue entry rang down the cur- tain on the 1949-1950 season. Whitmer's first-half shooting percentage of 73M was too much to overcome. DeBlase and Eisen- hauer sparked the Redmen with lO each. THE LETTERMEN Nine players received major awards this year. Six were playing their last basketball game for B.H.S. ART LONG-center,-- Captain Art, the tallest man on the team, was noted for his control of the backboards and his left hand push shots. An on night for Art meant trouble for opponents. TED BALL-forward,-Ted always turned in a praiseworthy job in the pinches, and his cool ball handling and accurate shooting helped the Redmen out of many a jam. RALPH EISENHAUER-center, - Ike starred in the Sandusky tournament games, pulling two of them out of the fire, Although this was his first year of basketball, he came through with his tricky hook shot when he was needed. DICK HICKMAN-guard,- Hicky also starred in the Sandusky tournament, but his tricky ball-handling and dribbling, together with his long shot, were threats throughout the entire season. CLEM KOSELKE-guard,- Old reliable Clem, backed by experience, was always calm and cool when called on to play. He was at his best when the going got rough. SANDY NASONTI - forward, - Sandy's sure-shooting and control of the backboard helped the Redmen win many a fray. His best game was against Norwalk when he chalkcd up 23 points. These juniors turned in very creditable playing during the past season. DON ADAMS-forward,- Bo was elect- ed captain of the l95O-5l club and was named most valuable player for the I949-50 season because of his consistent playing. His drive-in shots were beautiful to watch. SAM DeBLASE-guard,-Sam's deceptive passing and tricky ball handling helped our boys considerably this year. Sam will be O mainstay in the attack next year. IACK DREXEL--guard,-Jack didn't play too much this year, but was a sparkplug of thc second team. He will be valuable next year. GUY BERETICH - manager, - Guy took care of the balls and was always ready for other tasks. His accurate charts were a help to the coaches. IOE SERRAINO-manager,- Pena was Coach Ayers' right hand man. He followed Coach's orders to a T , LEWIS SMITH-manager,- Louie took care of the towels and sometimes kept the shot chart. The following boys received minor awards and will, in all probability, be on next year's roster. juniors-G. Hire, I. Tibboles, W. Todd. Sophomores-T. Adams, P. Drewes, P. Miano, J. Moore, C. Siesel.

Blossoming boughs, a splashing fountain, garden furniture and white picket fences made couples feel as if they were actually dancing under the stars. Paul Mabie's fifteen piece orchestra supplied the music. Master-of-ceremonies, Alton Frisch, intro- duced the Junior Sextet which sang ln An Old-Fashioned Garden. Nancy Mitchell set all the girls dreaming by playing The Man l Love. Couples then joined in singing such old favorites as Let Me Call You Sweet- heart and When You Wore a Tulip. Seniors concluded the program in traditional way by singing their class song. Committee Chairmen, l95O: Invitations ................................ Pat Sberna Decorations ......... ............

Highlight of the year for vocal music stu- dents was the Spring Music Festival presented tonight under the direction of Arch B. Krumm, vocal music instructor. The Prelude Choir, Mixed Choir, Boys' Chorus, and the Treble Clef all did their part to make the annual event a success. The Prelude Choir girls, dressed in their light formals, added a touch of spring in color as well as in song. Attrac- tive maroon choir robes were worn by the Mixed Choir. The Mixed Choir has sung in another fes- tival this year, the N.O.L. Choral Festival at Upper Sandusky, last month. The Treble Clet group, composed chiefly of freshmen girls, is a training ground for the other choruses. The junior class boasts ot a sextet that has sung for many audiences during this school year.

Dual meets will probably be scheduled with Norwalk, Tiffin, Ashland, Galion, Fremont, and Port Clinton. There is a possibility of a triangular meet between Bellevue, Bucyrus, Gnd Ashland. The l950 thin-clads are scheduled to com- pete in most of the big relays in the state, in- cluding DeVilbiss, Miami, Newark, Fremont, and. Mansfield. District and State meets will also be attended by the crack members of the squad. Coach Fenton Wolfe is at the helm of the Redmen tracksters and over thirty boys are out for the sport. Coach Wolfe has six boys back from last year's team to form his nucleus. They are Don Adams lbroad jump, mile relay, 220l, Don Baldwin l880, high jump, mile relayl, Dick Hickman lhigh and low hurdlesl, Ted Ball lhigh and low hurdlesl, Dick Keeler lshot putl, and Sam DeBlase lhigh jump, 4403. Other promising prospects are Guy Bere- tich, Dennis lrons, Dave Dailey, jim Windsor, Frank Belfiore, Tom Adams, Dick Ruffing, Chuck Siesel, and Chuck Wright. Last month the first meet was canceled because of a strange freak of weather - a snowstorm in April! Even at the second meet, the boys wore heavy jackets between events as chill winds blew across the field. Jim PM 1 nzqhtwam Dear Diary: jerry and l were proud to work behind the scenes tonight when the seniors presented Ramshackle lnn, a former Broadway play. lt made a real hit, with the amusing old maid owner of the inn, the dead bodies, the muffled screams, and the humorous complications of plot.
