.BLUE AND GOLD EDITING STAFF The task of producing an annual under the cir- cumstances made necessary by the prevalent business conditions is indeed a difficult one. However, the staff has made every effort to produce a volume of some literary merit,and of some historical signifi- cance. Some of the mechanical completeness of pre- vious books has been denied. With the cooperation and assistance of other senior students, we have done our task to the best of our ability.

BLUE AND GOLD SCHOLASTIC HONORS While honors came to the members of the senior class in many different fields of activity, probably none meant more to the school than those earned in scholarship in the Ohio Senior General Scholarship Contest on March 19th. In the county alone two of our representatives placed in the upper 10% of the fifty- two candidates taking the examination. Ralph Short won the first place and William Winzeler tied fbr 4th place. The 10th place was captured by Beverly Bacon and the 24th by Daryl Frey. When the results were checked by the State Su- pervisor of Scholarship Contests,Ralph was given the sixth place in the Bowling Green District which can- prises about one fifth of the State. William was ranked seventy-first in the district but was still in the highest 10% of--thos-e- taking the examination in this district. These are indeed signal honors for the boys. Since these examinations are to be used for the exprding of university scholar ships the final re- sults are anxiously awaited.
