The staff has endeavored to make this Annual an enduring remembrance of those things which we wish to keep: the school dances, the football and basketball games, the various organizations to which we belonged, the faculty, our school friends. If this book serves to recall to our minds those happy incidents of our school days, our purpose will have been accomplished. It is also our hope, how- ever, that this yearbook will not only serve as a remembrance, but will also furnish a means of praising those people who made our high school years memorable to us. 4 QCONTIENTS Administration .

RIDER Dedicatee DEDICATION Memories and acquaintances are wonderful assets, especially when they are woven into a pattern of school life that will always be remem- bered. One of the most outstanding acquaintances of the class of 1936 is Mr. W. A. Rider, commercial teacher of the Senior High School. Since we en- tered this building as Sophomores, Mr. Rider has helped us as a class in all of our undertakings. His cheery smile and kindly manner were an in- spiration to the many pupils who asked him for guidance. Selected by the class to be a class sponsor during the Junior year, he proved invaluable as an aide at that time. His work on various commit- tees helped to make the J unior-Senior Prom the success that it was. As one of our sponsors in the Senior year, he again was an interested bene- factor, giving counsel and guidance to the officers in class problems. But not only as a class sponsor has his influence been felt. His teach- ing in the commercial department has been highly beneficial to all con- cerned. In recognition of his work for both class and school welfare, we, the class of 1936, wish to bestow upon him the highest honor that is in our power to grant. We dedicate this annual, the Hi-Echo for 1936, to Mr. W. A. Rider. Hi a iecciio KGHUR SUHIOO1. In the superintendent's oiice hangs a framed document which repre- sents the beginning of our Senior High School. It is our charter, dated December 16, 1929. Since that time our school has seen many improve- ments. The music department has progressed rapidly. In 1929, the band was made up of only twenty-four members: this year there are about sixty uni- formed musicians. Now there is a vested chorus instead of two glee clubs. In 1929 there were only eighteen in the orchestra, and the school owned no instruments. With the new building has come an increased interest in clubs and social activities. Dramatics have prospered so well that now there is a very large, active organization. Debate and public speaking clubs have become important parts of our school life. The Art club has grown and expanded into many new fields, metal craft, puppets, and weaving. The G. A. A. has proved to be a great success as have several new organizations. The literary branch of our school has been rounded out by the publication of our magazine, The Gray Griffin . The rooms have improved as they have become adapted to their re- spective subjects. They have assumed that certain air which accompanies those subjects and instructors. Bookcases overflowing with references, bulletin board displays, and pictures show the improvements which have pervaded our institution with time and the devotion of individuals. page ffm JFAMUULIIAR SQIENES page six LIBRARY GYM HALL OFFICE TOWER 209 AUDITORIUM page eight 1936 BUARD OJF EDUCATION W. H. JRIIIPS illl'l'l'2lS0lli, C. H. Young. Il. B. Waugh. VV. ll. Gernert S. S, Leiter absent when picture was taken This year, through the interested efforts of the Board of Education, the students of Bowling Green High School again have concluded an en- joyable and profitable school term. Although these men receive no mate- rial compensation for their valuable time, it is through their work that our school maintains its high scholastic and extra-curricular activities. By the careful business management of this group of men, the school has been able to run as efficiently as ever. All activities have been con- tinued as before, and the same highly trained instructors have been pro- vided. The outstanding project of this year was the complete repainting of every room in the Senior High School building including the halls, the auditorium, and the gymnasium. This renovation has given the entire high school a new and neat appearance. The board also provided a press box in the stadium at our athletic field and greatly improved the track. The Board of Education is made up of the following members: Wm. B. James, Presidentg Carl H. Young, Vice Presidentg W. H. Gernert, Clerk 3 and S. S. Leiter and R. B. Waugh.

B. CONKLIN Superintendent of Schools In his dual capacity of Principal of the Bowling Green Senior High School and Superintendent of the Bowling Green Schools, Mr. A. B. Conklin has steadily risen in the estimation of the students. During his years as Superintendent, Mr. Conklin was looked upon by the students as a vague power behind the throne, but with his coming to the Senior High School as Principal, students have had the privilege of personal contact with him. Under his efficient administration, students have experienced many changes for their betterment which have made the past school year an experience to look back upon with happy memories. :Y' page nine page ten 11936 UUE lFAClUlLTY ,. ,. , . . . , Iflrst If1iVVf'Allg'1'llt'.

Miss Halleck is in charge of the library and is well known to the student body for her splendid work. Miss Wentz and Miss Simmons, as assistant librarians also have become quite well known for the efficiency with which they carry on their work. Nlissvs II2ll'lll'li. I'iHllillS0li, llilflillill, Mrs. Box ENGINEERS Visitors to our school have prac- tically always expressed their surprise when informed that this school is seven years old. Most people are mis- lead concerning the number of years it has been giving service because of the excellent condition in which it has been kept. lBilUS DRIVERS The eight busses used by our school system serve as a means of convey- ance for approximately 335 children. The total miles covered daily by the busses for one round trip averages about 153 miles. These facts are enough to prove to us the invaluable service which these men give for our convenience.

L'-H1 Himmcuo OlUlEi SPONSORS W. A. RIDER F. G. SKIBBIE M. M. MERCER Mr. F. G. Skibbie as director of our Senior play gave his generous and untiring services, helping immeasurably to make The Charm School a huge success. Mr. M. M. Mercer aided our class in one of its biggest un- dertakings. His excellent counsel and guidance have made this annual a triumph of the year. Mr. W. A. Rider has been our class sponsor for the last two years. Much of our success has been due to his wise advice and never failing inter- est in the problems of our class. We, the graduating class of 1936, wish to thank our dependable spon- sors who have played such a vital part in the progress of our class by giv- ing unreservedly of their time, patience, and thought. THE 11936 SENIOR MEMORIAL The memorial chosen by this year's class was an automatic light switch. In choosing this memorial the members of the class considered the extra work which will be saved those individuals, who, heretofore, always made the rounds in turning the lights on and off. They also took into consideration the helpfulness to the pupils of such an addition. Between classes, unilluminated corridors not only hamper sight into those dark lockers but they also dampen good spirits. The lights will automatically switch on and off between classes and before and after school. The switch is operated by the master clock in the Superintendent's office. This works on the same system that rings the class bells. page fifteen page sixteen MILDRED FETZER 'l'lw llrum Major Man Ill'2lll15llll'S 1-4 Ilnmr- Ef'0ll0Ill if-s Vluln SA RAI!

Angene, sponsors, the Sophomore class of 145 members has had an unusually prosperous year. Through the generous efforts of members of the class and Mr. M. M. Mer- cer, an Amateur Hour was presented in February. The response to the program was highly satisfactory and it brought eighteen dollars into the Sophomore treasury. This was the first successful financial venture a Sophomore class has accomplished in several years. Members of the class have been active in various school activities including football, basketball, track, tennis, golf, and various clubs. This year forty members of the class were chosen to assist at the J unior-Senior Prom and proved to be very capable. .ga i Q ! Hll . 1EfCHo THE NINTH GRADE r JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL . Bowling Green High School has for its proving ground one of the best schools in the state. This year's Ninth Grade graduating class has been exceedingly active in developing the three phases of life-the physi- cal, the social, and the mental. Under the guiding hand of Mr. Cook, the Junior High School, and par- ticularly the Ninth Grade, has produced basketball and football teams which, although handicapped by small players, were two of the best drilled and hardest fighting teams ever to represent the school. Several members of the Ninth Grade also practiced a lot at the track and will no doubt make future track stars for Bowling Green High School. This year two dances were held by the Ninth Graders. One was spon- sored by the girls and the other by the boys. Finding that some of the stu- dents didn't dance, several periods were devoted to the sole purpose of teaching dancing. The Ninth Grade was divided into two sections, the boys and the girls. Election of officers was held each semester in each section and in this way, Continzmd on page thirty-four page thirty-one W.-.! - -4-1 11936 page thirty-two lwlini-rgm-im Abbott, Chorus Ilonuld Alexander Eugvnc Allgire ICllf.Z'l'llt!

Each section held week- ly meetings to transact business or to enjoy an outside speaker or pro- gram prepared by various members of the class. Every pupil was able to enjoy the fellowship of some club as these clubs, nine in number, offered a variety of choices. Junior High School organizations consisted of Chorus, Junior High School Orchestra, Junior High School Band, Scout Troop, Rifle club, Leisure Time club, Art Metal club, Puppet club and the Dramatics club. This year thirteen members of the Ninth Grade were chosen by 'the faculty as the charter members of the Bowling Green Junior High School National Honor Society. In this way the students with the outstanding records in scholarship, leadership, service and character were honored for their good work. The concluding activity of the class was the Ninth Grade graduation exercise at which pupils received their diplomas. Now this class is embarking on a new and interesting phase of life, namely, the Senior High School years which will be climaxed by another graduation. L., il L rg.

THE PHYSICAL EDUCATION OFFICE HIGH SCHOOL FIELD THE TENNIS COURTS HE'S OVER! THE GOLFER'S WAY HI n ECHO W. B. HAMM CLAYTON COOK Difrecfor of Physical Efl1lC0fi07L Director of Physical Education Clay- ton Cook has been with us for but a short period of time, but he has already started a track team, which in its second year, has already been able to take the county championship. Cook's physical education program of written tests and a knowledge of skills in various branch- es of athletics has been popular among the students. His personality has made Coach Cook a well known individual among the students and we hope that he many develop next year's track team in the same proportion that he improved this year's track team over last year's. WILLIAM B. HAMM Athletic Director We were indeed proud to have had in our high school for the past year an athletic director as capable and efficient as Coach Hamm. Because of his distinctive personality, ease, and dignity, Mr. Hamm has made a host of friends in Bowling Green. We feel that his ultimate success was due to his likable personality, his exper- ience, and his sportsman-like attitude in his round of activities. FRED MARSH Assistant Coach Being a great athlete in his high school and college days and a keen student of the game, no better assistant coach could have been found this year than Freddy Marsh. Fred showed real value as an assist- ant coach when he helped develop one of the greatest all-tournament basketball teams ever to don suits for Bee Gee. page thirty-seven 11936 FOOTBALL page thirty-eight 1935 GRID SQUAD NORTH BALTIMORE 1. The Bee Gee Bobcats came out this year with plenty of fighting spirit and clean sportsmanship. Our game with the North Baltimore Tigers was the first vic- tory of the season. The '35 Bobcats clad in new scarlet and grey football suits, raced down the field and defeated the hard playing Tigers 39-0. Coach Hamm's gridiron men displayed excellent team- work in shutting out their ancient rivals in the season's opener. SYLVANIA 2. Bee Gee Goal line still uncrossed as Sylvania falls 20-0. Bruce Hamm's Cats successfully passed their second opponent of the season here Friday, by scoring a shut-out victory over a deter- mined Sylvania eleven. The Scarlet and Grey's victory was marred by the loss of Stanley Yoder, sophomore fullback, who suHered a fractured leg. Coach Hamm was now faced with the task of rebuild- ing his entire offense as most of his plays were centered around this powerful back. FINDLAY 3. After the two overwhelming vic- tories the Bobcats were defeated by Findlay 13-0. This was the only game of the season when our gridiron warriors played at night under lightg however, this game left a mark upon the team. Chuck Schooner, the captain of the '35 squad ended his career. Chuck' was quarantined because of sickness. Forced with the task of building a new backfield, Coaches Hamm and Marsh drilled the squad harder and later hop- ing to defeat Defiance. The team work- ed perfectly and was full of vigor but the locals were defeated by a score of 26-13. A-4' lHlI n ECHO -1 , .aff-y.. . -. LIMA CENTRAL 4. Outweighed 20 pounds to the man and using an all Sophomore backfield the Scarlet and Grey football team put up a stubborn defense before finally bowing to the Central Dragons 20-0. This was the only team to hold a three touchdown margin on the Bobcats last season. NAPOLEON 5. Displaying their best brand of foot- ball of the season the local lads held a great Napoleon team scoreless for the first half of the game before finally suc- cumbing to a 21-7 score. With the ball on Napoleon 1 ft. line Farrison inter- cepted a Bobcat pass and raced 100 yards for a touchdown. A fumbled kick off gave the Corporals their second touch- down and a third came by a great 35 yd. run by Farrison. All three came in 3 minutes time. The Bobcats then came back and scored climaxing an 80 yd. drive down the field. GENOA 6. Bobcats suffered first loss on home gridiron when Genoa won a hard fought contest, 14-7. The locals scored first after carrying the ball 65 yds. without losing it. A long pass by Avery tied the score just before the half ended. A great run by Avery won the contest in the last quarter. FOSTORIA 7. The big game of the year arrived. The fans packed the big stadium to ca- pacity. Fostoria was victorious 20-6. The Bobcats were nervous and made numerous costly errors. They thrice re- pelled the Redmen inside their own 10 yd. line in the first quarter. They were unable to stop the aerial attack of the visitors and found themselves trailing 20-0 as the last quarter arrived. A great run by Gernert of 65 yds. after complet- ing Smith's pass on his own thirty-five electrified the home fans and enabled the Bobcats to score on their ancient rivals. PERRYSBURG 8. Perrysburg, the first team to ever play Bowling Green, came last on the schedule. The Bobcats again marched for a touchdown in the first quarter. An in- tercepted pass enabled the Yellow Jack- ets to score and lead 7-6 at the half. The Scarlet and Grey warriors unleashed a furious offense in the second half to score in the third quarter and carry the ball to their opponents 3 yd. line as the game ended, with a 13-7 Bobcat victory.

Bee Gee Bobcats beat Bellevue in season's opener. The Bobcats' shooting was somewhat ragged, but they displayed excellent early season form in their pass work. Ed Wallace opened the game UE with the first 1935 basket. Stacy soon followed with an under-basket shot. The locals trimmed the Bellevue regulars 27- 15 and the Bee Gee reserves whipped Bellevue reserves 31-18. PEMBERVILLE 2. The varsity and reserves chalked up their second victories of the season when they defeated their Wood County rivals, Pemberville. Bobcats won by 45- 25 while reserves marked up 32-25 vic- tory. WAUSEON 3. Wauseon proved no match for fast Bee Gee's. The Bobcats unloosed a barrage of 24 field goals and 4 fouls for a total of 52 points, while setting up a tight man-to-man defense that allowed the Indians only 13 points. WAITE 4. Bobcats down Waite for their fourth straight double victory. The larg- est crowd so far this year filled the gym- nasium to its capacity to witness this annual classic. The varsity triumphed by a score of 22-14 while reserves went on a scoring rampage to win 49-20. FOSTORIA 5. With the offense and defense col- lapsing in a very rough game on Fos- toria's small floor, the Scarlet and Grey team lost their first contest of the season 32-22. However, the Bee Gee Reserves continued their victorious march by wal- loping Fostoria's reserves 34-22. page forty-one page forty-two Regis Echle 3 A W t , w f i 'X . may gm l 1. 7 , fiig? Richard Wilke TIFFIN JUNIOR ORDER 6. It was a greatly improved Basket- ball team that defeated the highly tout- ed Tiffin Jr. Order quint 32-17 to get back into the winning column. The re- serves were less fortunate and met their first defeat of the season at the hand of Tifiin reserves by the score 26-20. NORTH BALTIMORE 7. Bee Gee's reserve team swamped North Baltimore as regulars rested on the bench. During the North Baltimore game Coach Hamm used all second string men to win 25-13. The regular cats were saving themselves for the DeVilbiss game to be played the following night. This was to be the toughest game of the sea- son. DEVILBISS 8. Undefeated DeVilbiss team handed first reverse of season. One of the most spectacular games of the season was re- corded on the high school's books by Coach Hamm. The great DeVilbiss High school cage quintet came to town boast- ing of seven victories and no defeats. They looked to be sure of their last year's city championship. The large gymnasium was packed. The Bobcats got away to a good lead and outplayed the Big City boys to a score 37-30. LIMA DRAGONS 9. Bobcats defeat Lima Dragons 41- 20. The Dragons put up a good fight but were badly beaten. During the half, the Bowling Green High School's tumbling team gave a thrilling exhibition of their skill. Music was furnished throughout the game by the Senior High School's Band, under the direction of Mr. Win- chester Richard. Jimmie Falls, the one and only band leader, gave many start- ling exhibitions, with his swinging baton, which brought many cheers from the crowd. NAPOLEON 10. Bobcats defeated Napoleon 37-19. The varsity continued its sensational ball playing despite the handicaps of Napoleon's low-beamed floor. The Scarlet and Grey team maneuvered through their defense and scored all points with- in foul line. 1936 HI n ECHO BUCYRUS 11. Bee Gee Cats lose game at Bucy- rus. The locals took their second defeat of the season from Bucyrus to the score 32-25. The game was slow and rough with Bobcats considerably off-form. Dick Gernert, first string forward, retired from game with sprained ankle, Wayne Hickle took his place and played a nice game. LIBERTY CENTER 12. Locals swamped Liberty Center 42-25. Liberty Center was the 11th vic- tim of the Bowling Green cagers this season. Using a fast passing attack and a good defense set-up made the Scarlet and Grey team look far different than they did when they lost to Bucyrus last week. Wilkie and Echle shared scoring honors with 25 points. FINDLAY 13. Bowling Green cagers whipped Findlay 28-19. Reserves lost by a close margin 20-18. This victory was the 12th in 14 games for the locals and also kept their home record undefeated. DEFIANCE 14. Bobcats lost to Defiance 33-23. Bee Gee reserves continue to win by a score 24-21. The game was rough and fast, nevertheless both teams played good ball. Bee Gee's team was weakened in last quarter when star forward Gernert was removed from game on personal fouls. PERRYSBURG 15. Varsity downed Perrysburg in fast thriller. The locals led by 10 points at the end of the first quarter and the game looked cinched, but Perrysburg men thought differently and they went on a scoring spree and led the locals by 12 points at the half. It was a determined band of cagers that returned to the floor after the half. Passing and shooting, with the same ac- curacy which had permitted them to leave the court victoriously in nine other consecutive home games, they completely out-classed their northern neighbors and won 38-36. . ....

Bobcats-31 Van Wert-25 Van Wert came to the tourney with a highly touted team. They had recently played Lima Central an overtime game on Lima's floor. They were the Bobcats' first opponent. This marked the third consecutive year that these two teams had drawn each other. B. G. won the first game by two points and the second one by three. This year's game saw an- other victory for B. G. The Scarlet and Grey boys piled up a 12 point lead in the first quarter and were never in dan- ger. Some excellent one hand shooting by the Cagers enabled them to stage a last minute rally which fell seven points short of tieing and the Bobcats were on their way. Bobcats-64 Paulding-10 The entire squad was used in an ef- fort to keep down the score in this game but to no avail. The inexperienced team from Paulding proved no match for the Bowling Green Cagers and the Cat on- slaught 64-10. The B. G. reserves played the biggest part of this game and did the greater part of the scoring. Bobcats-49 Liberty Center-33 With the return of their tall center Liberty Center trounced Napoleon in their early tourney game, and looked so good the experts picked them to put up a great battle against the Bobcats. The Cats turned on their early game heat, however, and were never behind. Their passwork in this contest caused many fans to predict a district championship for them. They led at the half, 21-10 and coasted out with all of the regulars resting for the final game with Defiance. Bowling Green-35 Defiance-25 The great night arrived. Beating De- fiance on their floor was no easy task. Especially when their first six men were all Seniors and had played together for four years. In characteristic style, the Bobcats took an early lead. Their passing and shooting was beautiful to behold. They displayed such an air-tight de- fense that the Defiance team was un- able to work the ball within scoring dis- tance. The Bobcats led from 10 to 15 points through the entire game. They were cheered on by several hundred loyal fans who made the big drive despite the ice and high water. Immediately after the game a beautiful trophy was pre- sented to the Bobcats, and each player received a gold watch charm from the Ohio High School Athletic Association. XX i'r: ... . , is , ,q,,.,..

The Napoleonetes on their own field again proved too much for the 'Cats, but this time the issue was in doubt until the last event had been run off. The score of 57 to 52 was proof in itself that the track caliber of Bowling Green had already improved over last year's-Hour first track year after a lapse of several seasons. TONTOGAN Y Tontogany proved no match for the Bobcat cinder pounders. While the invaders captured more tirsts than the locals, the Bowling Green points were garnered by our well balanced team which captured the majority of seconds and thirds. The final score was 59 to 41. BRYAN In the rain and mud at Bryan, the Bobcats ran in a meet which was more or less of a farce. Suffering from handicaps offered by poor locker room facilities, pouring rain, dirt track, and unfavorable temperature, the 'Cats lost by a count of 7516 to 1551. A few of the events in which Bowling Green was comparatively strong were omitted because of the weather conditions. LIBERTY CENTER Eighty-one and a half to 27W was the overwhelming count by which the 'Cats swamped Liberty Center. Our tracksters captured eleven firsts to the invader's two firsts. In this meet the locals put on the pressure to avenge the Bryan defeat and more than succeeded. page forty-five 1936 l page forty-six First RHVVASllll0Il1lS. SllilNV5lli4'l', Low:-ll. li2lllllN'I'l.

The invaders had previously been considered champions of Wood county because of previous wins over other teams of this county. However, with this victory over the county champions, the Bobcats proved themselves the best track team in Wood county. 1937 PROSPECTS This year with the graduation of Bob Lowell, dash, relay, and broad jump many Waldo Shawaker, dash and relay mang Jack Angerman, 440 man, and Wayne Wood- bury 880 man, we will lose four members of the track team, and their leaving will leave a hole in the Bee Gee track team, but several lettermen will be back, along with a number of experienced members of the squad to make our third year more success- ful than either 1935 or 1936. The prospective cand'dates for next year's team are: Loyd Shelton, mile relayg Thomas Lahey, discus, high jump, 880, and mile relayg Edward Lambert, 440 and relayg James Onofrio, mile and relayg Don Bell, shot putg Harry Smith, shot put, discus, and javeling Richard Gernert, relay, discus, javelin, and dash, Nelson Alexander, mileg Richard Stoots, 440 and 8805 Alan Richards, high jump and pole vault, Ralph Spears, shot put and discusg Jim Hunter, broad jump, and Jack Simons, 440. AH L -M 1 1+ ll-lIlI 4 ECHO TENNIS Dunipacv, Wilcox, Sit-bm-ns, VVilke, Amos, Mason This year, as in the past three years, the Bobcats have proved an outstanding net combination. This is the fourth consecutive year that the Bowling Green tennis squad has sent representatives to the state tournament and the third consecutive year that Bowling Green entered players in both the doubles and singles at state. The tennis team easily overcame all opposition in netters with other schools, never dropping more than one point a match. At the district tournament the Bowling Green entries again came through to win with Wilke in the singles and Wilcox and Siebens in the doubles. Two weeks later the netters went down to the state tournament where they met with grief. Wilke met the scrappy and clever Bobby Fought from Columbus in the first round and was eliminated 6-1, 6-1. The doubles combination of Siebens and Wilcox survived the first round by beating Zanesville, but were unfortunate enougn to meet the potential 1936 state doubles champions, Cincinnati Purcell, in the quarter finals to lose 6-3, 6-2. The 1936 tennis schedule is as follows: B. G.

Captain Richard Gernert will again be back with Kenneth Kidd as his partner. Both of these boys have had two previous years of experience on the squads of '35 and '36, The third, fourth, Hfth and sixth men will be selected according to their qualifica- tions next spring. The boys who will probably fill these four open positions are John Halleck, experienced one year on Senior High School squad, Bob Williams, experienced one year on Junior High School squad, John Garno, experienced one year on Junior High School squad, Meredith Davis, experienced one year on Junior High School squad. Raymond H. Rubrake has shown his ability in coaching and managing golf teams for the past several years.

The Scarlet Parrot was published regu- larly every two weeks. Several times the Scarlet Parrot was the first Bowling Green paper to publish certain news and accounts of evening sports events were published in the paper the next morning. The class had a definite Working policy, with a semi-professional attitude, because the members of the staff realized the financial responsibility. The publish- ing of the paper depends entirely on sales and advertisements. The paper co-operated with the other school organizations and its editorials always advised maintaining the right school attitudes and doing everything to im- prove the school in general. In order to be on the staff' a pupil must have at least a B average, and be able to work independently, because the class is like the regular staff of a newspaper, with the responsibility resting on the editor and business manager. This year three different pupils were editors. Allen Siebens, Bill Rothe, and Irma Stevens were all editors at different times. Irma Stevens was the first girl editor in seven years. The staff took field trips to the two newspapers here and the Toledo Blade. Allen Siebens, Bill Bothe, Don Bell, and Jack Angerman attended the Journalism Conference at Columbus this year, representing the staf. Mr. Mercer is the adviser to the staff. page fifty-one page ffty-two Vfiinef-4 ,. I 1936 THE HONOR SOCIETY First IUPVV-Hllflllill. Holt, Munn. Bam-s. Parr. Tyson S4-coiid Row-Lowell.

The candidates for election to the society consist of the upper third of the class in regard to scholarship. The faculty chose fifteen stu- dents from this group to be initiated into the society, basing their judg- ment upon scholarship, character, leadership, and service, the ideals of the high school. An impressive ritual was written and adopted by the faculty and the initiation was held in the cafeteria on April 16. The room was beautifully decorated with two candelabra burning against hangings of red silk on which were the words scholarship, character, leadership, and service. The emblem of the society which had been skillfully made by Mr. Swigart was one of the chief points of decoration. The music was furnished and the ini- tiation ritual conducted by the charter members of the society. Dr. H. B. Williams, President of Bowling Green State University, gave a masterful address upon the responsibilities that accompany honor. The members were given many enjoyable privileges, they were ex- empted from all final examinations and they were given great freedom in the use of library permits. Officers elected by the society were Allen Sie- bens, President, Margaret Munn, Vice-Presidentg and Mary Louise Gibson, Secretary-Treasurer.

Gl'l'lll'l'l Foremost among those organizations of Bowling Green High School which have projects of real value to our school itself is the Hi-Y Club. During the year the club carried out its various activities which have aided our school in many ways. The bookstore was opened at the begin- ning of the year and made it easy for many students to obtain second- hand books. In the fall a large group of boys were initiated, and the club held its yearly picnic. At the Fostoria football game and the DeVilbiss and Waite basketball games programs were sold. Don Bell and Jack Angerman were largely responsible for the publishing of these splendid programs. The club estab- lished a free check-room and also furnished ushers for the basketball games. The Hi-Y all-school dance always a big event, was given in Janu- ary, and was very successful. Delegates from the club attended the State convention at Tiffin, and also the district meeting in Toledo. Richard Amos, Quentin Bowers, Paul Ladd, Bill Rothe and Allen Siebens were the delegates to the State conven- tion. The officers of the club are Bill Rothe, president, James Sheffler, vice-president, and Paul Ladd, secretary-treasurer. Mr. L. O.

Alun Hiclisirds Under the direction of Winchester Richard, the band was a valuable asset to the school. This year a newcomer, Jim Falls, was the drum major, and his baton twirling was a major attraction at the football and basket- ball games. The band played at all these athletic contests, at pep meet- ings, and presented a series of concerts. The main accomplishment of the band this year was its fine showing in the sectional and state contests. Last year the band did not do so well at the district contest, but this year's band received a superior rating of one, and went to the state contest at Columbus with Fostoria. Here they received ratings of four, two, and two, by the three judges, and a rating of three in sight reading, a thing which none of the band members had ever done before in a contest. However, the band once again tied with Fostoria for third place in the state, as there was no second place because of ties, although the B. G. band outpointed Fostoria. April 28 the Band Mothers' club gave their banquet to the band, and eight letters were presented to Seniors who had earned them. Mr. Walter Sells, conductor of the Fremont band, was the speaker, and he brought his first trombonist, Jack Stierwalt, with him. Jack is the state champion and ranked very high in the national contest. The band gave one more concert before the school year was finished. This concert climaxed a drive to get funds for new band uniforms. Hll 1 ECHO THE ORCHESTRA Ln-ft to lliglit-Holly lluutm-r. lil4'llZlI'll Green, Juno Kieffer.

The orchestra played at most of our assembly programs, and also played at several joint Parent-Teacher Association meetings. When the Dramatic Guild presented their plays, the orchestra also entertained the students. Although they did not enter the orchestra contest at Bowling Green University, the members practiced diligently under the direction of Mr. W. H. Richard, and deserve commendation for their work.

Woodbury, Mutheuy This year the chorus, under the direction of Mr. R. V. Hilty, brought new honors to our high school. The group of singers participated in the sectional contest for high school choruses at Bluffton, and received a rating of two, which means excellent. This rating gave them second place and qualified the chorus to enter the state contest at Columbus. Here they came through in fine style, receiving ratings of one, one, and three from the judges, giving them second place again. This illustrates the type of work which is done, and much credit is due the group and Mr. Hilty, This year, because the auditorium was being re-decorated, the cho- rus was unable to present an operetta, which is always a line performance, and the school was keenly disappointed. The operetta chosen was The Gypsy Rover, and the group practiced for about a month before it had to be discontinued. During the year the chorus was composed of about sixty-five members, and rehearsals were held twice a week. In December the group presented a fine Christmas program in an assembly.

But this year a dramatics club was organ- ized, and took the name Dramatics Guild. During the first semester two plays were presented. While the Toast Burned, directed by Mary Louise Gibson, and More Blessed, a Christ- mas play, directed by Margaret West, were very successful, and were given in the assemblies. Play production was only one activity of the club. At its monthly meetings, skits or pantomimes were put on and a speaker was obtained for each meeting. Mr. Ivan Lake, Mr. L. E. Angene, and Miss LeVier were among those who talked on the relationship of dramatics to their particular fields or experiences. The club elected Bob Gerding, president, Mildred Wolfe, vice-president, and Dorothy Rothrock, secretary-treasurer. Mr. Skibbie is the club sponsor. page fifty-seven 11936 THE HOME ECONOMICS CLUB page fifty-eight First Row-Ellen .lane Kl'2llll1i.

Almost all the members of the club attended the sectional conference at the Toledo University, and Glen- dora Woods was their delegate to the state conference at Columbus. At the meetings of the club various speakers talked and gave demon- strations. The most important activities of the club are the May Day breakfast, and the exhibit of Kentucky Home-spuns and the tea which is given with the exhibit. When the Home Economics club at the University gave their annual dance, the officers of the high school organization were invited, showing the fine spirit of cooperation which exists between this club and the one at the University. Another important event of the club is the initiation for new girls which is given at the beginning of the year. The club elected the following officers: President, Glendora Woodsg Vice-President, Wilma Holtg Sec- retary, Helen Tysong and Treasurer, Helen Sweet. Miss Klepinger is the club sponsor.

This club gives vocational aid to its members through the many and varied activities in which it engages. There are two programs, known as long-time and short-time programs, which the club has. In the long-time program, the members try to build up their vocational agriculture department by taking in new members. Also they endeavor to build up corn growing in Wood county. In the short-time program the boys help with the corn husking con- test, have a candy booth there, and participate in a contest for F. F. A. boys. During the year the club had two banquetsg one for their parents, and one for the Eighth Grade boys who are going to join the club. Delegates from the F. F. A. attended the convention at Ohio State University, and also the dairy cattle judging contest at the Toledo State Hospital. John Vermilya was the club's representative in the public speaking contest at Liberty Center. His subject was The Conservation of Our Natural Resourcesf' Vernon Blair was elected presidentg Jerry Carter, vice-presidentg John Vermilya, secretary, and Fred Haskins, treasurer. page fifty-nine 11936 VARSITY lLlETTlElRlMllElNVS ClLlUlB5 page sixty First Row-Sinus, l'llllllilll.

This organization is sponsored by Coach Hamm, and is the first of its kind in Bowling Green High School. The main purpose of the club is to further good sportsmanship and in order to express this idea letters were written to various schools on the athletic schedules. The lettermen are encouraged to maintain high scholastic averages. The club wrote letters of congratulations to a few schools that won the dis- trict basketball tournaments and went to Columbus. The members also endeavor to encourage other school activities, and these various projects are discussed at their monthly meetings. The following officers were elect- ed: Richard Amos, Presidentg Edward Wallace, Vice-Presidentg Tom Buchman, Secretaryg Richard Sams, Treasurer, and Richard Wilke, Re- porter. ll'lIlI n lEfClI'lI0 G.

Woods The Girls' Athletic Association has always been one of the outstand- ing organizations for girls in Bowling Green High School. Besides its ac- tivities in our own school, other schools have been invited to come here and participate in games with the teams of the G. A. A. December 14, the club sponsored a Sports Day .here and the volleyball teams of Findlay, Napoleon, and the University were invited. Afterwards a Christmas tea was given for the visitors in the cafeteria. The G. A. A. dance, an important event on the social calendar, was also given in December. Among the most important of the spring activities was the annual banquet at which shields were awarded to those girls who had earned seven hundred points by participating in the various games. Most of the club's meetings are of a business nature, but on several occasions speakers were present to address the members. The Athletic board is composed of Nellie Wittenmyer, presidentg Mary Louise Gibson, vice-presidentg Anna Laura Beck, secretary-Treas- urerg Clarabelle Long, chairman for basketballg Madeline Warren for base- ballg Doris Clingo for volleyballg and Catherine Echle for outings.

Phillips S1-cuiid Row-Iluth, Leggett, Burkhaltor, Porter Among the clubs of our high school whose activities deal with crafts- manship, the Art club is outstanding. Every year a different project is undertaken. This year's project was art metalcraft. The club met week- ly with Miss LeVier, the club sponsor, and the members made various use- ful and decorative articles of silver, copper, and other metals. Most of the members made jewelry such as rings and bracelets, but many paper knives, bookends, trays, pins, ash trays, identification bracelets, handbag tags, and statuettes were also made. The different processes of metal working were taught by Miss LeVier, and a general knowledge of metalcraft was acquired by the members. Several members of the Art club were also active in making puppets and were members of the Puppet club of the Junior High School. LeVaun Ordway was elected president of this organization during the year. The club presented the courtroom scene from The Merchant of Venice which was a very successful show. Special mention should be made of the fact that four members of the Art club worked on the Art Staff of this yearbook. They were: Rachel Phillips, Fawney Koontz, LeVaun Ordway, and Harry Burkhalter. i gg 1 page sixty-four 1936 STATUION B. G, H, S. PRESENTS In this age of radio the editors of the feature section think it ap- propriate to give you their ideas of how the people in our school would fit into a typical program put on any day of the Week by a representative broadcasting station. There isn't space to offer suggestions of all the sorts of radio talent we possess, but in the cuttings from programs put on the air by Station B. G. H. S. in the following pages, you will recognize many of your friends we hope. You may find some bits of this section rather puzzling, but what radio broadcast isn't? Editorial Note: After reading the many heh heh heh's interspersed in the elements of this program, we conclude that some- thing at the station must have gone heywire. lHIlnlEClHl0 MlRllSlE AND SlHlllNlEN 7:15 a. m. Announcer: At this time we present to you Miss Kay Ruh who brings to you her daily morning sermon on Keeping Fit -take it away, Miss Ruh. Miss Ruh: This morning, accompanied by Miss Donna Carr on the zither who will play The Music Goes Round and Round we will resume our exercise if you will kindly unbend from yesterday's position. This morning, as a bracer upper, we shall do the following exercise: At the count of one, raise your right hand, solemnly swear that you'1l tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, so help you. At the count of two grab the nearest infant and raise your arm swift- ly up and down without bending the elbow, thus exercising the brat and at the same time producing that good old muscle on that good old right arm. Ready: one, two, one, two, who who oh oh oh oho-oh-and we sign off here. UNCLE ABE 9:30 a. in. At the blare of the trumpets it will be about 9:31 and 5f10 seconds. At this time, all you little kiddies, cluster about your radios and your Uncle Abe will read the funnies to you. Enter Abe.-Hello kiddies fPutting arms around microphonel How are you all today? Last week we left Uncle Wigley fOrganD penned in his tree house by Volpone the fox QDevlinJ and I'll bet you can't guess how he escapes. Well, sir, along comes a wild boresey woresey CHammJ who thinks to himself, here's where I add a few razors to my back and so-o-o-o-0, little kiddies, we leave the boresey woresey chasing Volpone the fox and Uncle Wigley now can go to the store to get the molasses to give Jimmie Ford as an antidote for the spring weather. So if the button sews itself on Pratt's skirt and the thimble gets lost in Cook's hair, we'll find Uncle Wigley hunting books in his room to give back to their owners next week, and all you kiddies, don't forget to get your tardy excuses from the Isca Maysea business firm, and until next week toodle-ooo. page sixty-five . ,.,.. . page six-six 11936 BURN flEM UP BUWERS 2:00 p. m.

Eat a big dishpan full of delicious crispy crunchy Weedies flavored with milk and sugar or just milk if you haven't any sugar, and if you haven't any milk use any other good mixer and now what We've all been waiting for. You remember when yesterday's episode closed, Burn-em-up had just entered the haunted house in search of Annie Laurie who had been carried away by the arch-villian, that wolf-in-sheep's clothing, that nasty man, Hank Stump. Remember to listen closely at the end of the program for that important announcement and now here we go: Burn-em-up : Gee, this is a funny house. C A blood-curdling scream is heardj Gosh, maybe I better go home. Announcer: Oh, no, you don't, kid, remember you're getting paid 28c per hr. for this job. B. Gimme 30c or I quit right here. A. 26c. B. 29c. A. It's your for 27c, now come on. B. Gee, it hardly seems worth it-it's only a 15-minute program, but O.K. Is this a buzz-saw that I see before me? And there is that arch fiend, Henry Stump, by the switch. My goodness there's my Annie tied to it. Unhandle her you naughty boy. Hank. Heh, heh, heh. Stick-em-up-Bowers.

For carefully blended tobaccos and finer flavor, there's nothing like Roll Your Own. So there! and now for the personalities 1. Margaret Pratt-Torch singer and Dean of women at Sing Sing University. Her favorite likes and dislikes are pets like Plymouths, dogs, horses, trained fleas and Reynold Brown.

John Devlin-Famous scholar and Dean of Murphy's Iron Works. In a special to a newsboy on the corner of Main and Court Sts. he once said, Here's two cents, I'll take one. 3. John Halleck-Famed author of Two Nights on a Barroom Floor or Gosh, What Hit Me ? Although usually unwilling to be inter- viewed because of his shy and bashful nature, he has been quoted, Let's all have one on me just this once, boys. Marguerite Aeschliman-Beautiful cinema star, recently appear- ing in That's No Lady, That's My Wife or Gosh, That's an Old One , when questioned concerning the rumor about her receiving an 4. anonymous letter from Fred Chamberlain, Of course, there's noth- ing to it-we're just good friends, that's allf' 5.

Are your arches fallen and do your molars tickle? Well, then it's time you try Stout's MgS04 and we guarantee that if you succumb your relatives will be sent full signed packages abso- lutely free with 5 covers from the boxes, wrapping paper, stamps, and one dime to cover expenses. And now we bring you Buck CDunipaceJ and Wilma QHoltJ arguing ferociously with their parents to let them take a trip to Janus. Wilma now has her permission and is talking to Buck. B-Naw, I can't go-maw won't let me 'cause I didn't whitewash the back fence. W-Well, that's a shame, but fear not, I'll not look at a single other man on Janus and I'll write you every hour. So, my friends of the radio audience, We leave Buck and Wilma until next Week at this time and don't forget to keep yourselves fit by taking Stout's wonderful new discovery, MgS04. Did you know of the great throw-a-way sale at Sammy Goldstien's haberdashery? Tomorrow it begins and lasts indefinitely. You young men, here's your chance to get your J r.-Sr. outfit at great reductions. An example is any color, sportback, burlap twill weave, suit with topcoat to contrast for 313.538, extra pants 51.95. Don't forget to come to Sammy's 7:00 p. m. Good Evening everybody, this is Broke Carter bringing you the latest news through the courtesy of C. Moore Optical Company. There is no need for your not seeing in the dark any more with our Tiptop Devisable Trifo- cal lenses at the new price of 33.50. Come in and see the Doc. Italy made a new drive today through Ethiopia and Il Duce likes it very well. He is even thinking of bombing around tomorrow but then we all know that Italian balm is good for things, so we leave Ethiopia to visit Southwick fNorthtwineD and his harem in Istambul but we learn that he is in a sad state of affairs as someone kidnapped his harem. We suspect Gerding and Lowell as they have fiendish gleams in their eyes. Jerry Craft is now show- ing his great invention to all Physics students. When you place your books on your desk over a secret button you can now feel assured that they will not be misled, as a bell rings every time they are moved. In this way the culprit can be caught and the teacher hates to hold classes because of the ringing of bells. It is thought that he is now trying to invent a silent bell to do away with this unnecessary noise. We're with you, Jerry. ABC has finally caught the culprits who persisted in using the women's faculty room for a smoker. For particulars, write to this station. Thank you. Don't forget to see Moore.

Youth Marches on ...... Twelve suicides and three attempts were made recently by Seniors who failed to understand Chaucer and the books on the reading list assigned by Miss Waugh. Is youth getting dumber or have the books always been too deep? Lloyd Shelton shocked the Civics class on Tuesday, May 1, C?J by handing in a daily paper. A double catastrophe happened that day as Rothe walked into registration before the tardy bell. He must have had an argument with Barbara. Love is that way, Bill. Tomorrow evening at this same time we will again bring you the March of Youth. Good night. Youth Marches On! page sixty-nine page seventy 11936 MJIURY TlRlIAlLS 10:00 p. m.

West: Yes, and What's more I caught him with another woman yes- terday. Judge: What's that? Another woman? M.

Announcer: And now, everybody, we bring to you the most popular pro- gram on the air, Waldo Shawacker, the Voice of Experience, present- ed by the makers of that good old Goo Hair Tonic scented with that delicate perfume derived through extensive and expensive refining from skunk-cabbage picked in the prime of its old age and grown expecially for that purpose. Remember, Even babies say goo, and so should you. And now, the Voice of Experience. Here he is-. Voice of Exp.: Yes, folks, here I am. Heh, heh, heh. And now for the first letter. Here it is: Dear Voice of Experience: Listen, you big pain in the neck, if you think I'm going to sit at home all day and listen to you mind other people's business, you're crazy. I'm sick of hearing your silly prattle while the dirty dishes are lying in the sink, the rugs need beating, and the baby is crying. As a matter of fact, I think I'll come up and give you a little experience in minding your own business for a change. Your loving wife, Harriet. Well, ah, yes. Harriet the dear soul, must have her little joke, heh, heh, heh, heh. Pardon me, there seems to be a slight disturbance-excuse me, folks. Bang, Zowie, Ouch, etc. Announcer: Due to concussion of the brain, a broken arm, loss of teeth and a few other injuries, I fear that We must discontinue this program for possibly six months, but remember for a reliable hair tonic, chicken feed, axle grease or salad dressing, ask for Goo everytime, Abbysinia. page seventy-one page seventy-two 11936 RESULTS OE THE POPULARITY CONTEST lst Place 2nd Place Most Popular Girl PPPPPP PPPPPP,PP M argaret Munn and Bee Williamson Most Popular Boy eeeeeeieieieeeeieieePieiieiiieieieieieieiieeeeeeee Bill Rothe and Bob Lowell Nearest Married Couple, Biggest Gossip ,e,eeee A 4 Most Bashful Boyer C, Most Bashful Girl is , .
