Quill and Scroll, being an International Honor Society for High School lournalists, set rather high stand- ards for membership, thus requiring the student to meet special requirements in order to become a member.

The chief reason for the play's being a huge success was that both students and faculty spent much time working at rehearsals to see that all the details were taken care of properly and efficiently.

Yes, it was the Bowling Green High School A Cappella Choir and proud they might be of it, too. The choir was under the direction of Mr. B. V. Hilty, whose capable leadership has made his choirs famous. During the year the choir demonstrated its talents at the Civic Auditorium in Toledo for the Northwestern Ohio Teachers' Meeting. That was the day you got out of school, remember? They also sang at the Union Services of the Council of Churches and at various places in Toledo. Tiffin was the site for the Buckeye League Choral Festival this spring, and the chorus did your old alma mater true justice. Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday were the meeting days for the choir and you could usually see the voices staggering into their classes following chorus, singing Bring Dat Sinner Home. I might add that the students who made up this choir were picked mem- bers from the student body who had especially good voices, or supposedly good ones. page sixtyeone s qw' e page sixty-two First Row-left to right: Marian Kathrens, lane Urschel, Marilyn Mercer, Miriam Recker, Elcleen Dickerman, Melba Askins, Cornie Capen, Phyllis Iones, Shirley Buchin Second Row-Ianice Davenport, Margaret Curry, Nancy Church, Paula Meeker, Mary lane McFall, Betty Raidy, Dorothy Boyles, Janice Parlette Although this was just a newly formed group this year, these girls rapidly Won approval from their demanding audiences.

Davis, Roe, Roderick and Coach Creason ln the first game of the i946 season, the Bobcats got off to a fine start. The team, composed of quite a few l945 veterans, downed Gibsonburg 18-7. It was an interesting game, even though it was a little one-sided. Hank Shook scored the first touchdown on a 56 yard run. A pass from Simonds to Lee gave us our second score, and Harms, going around left end, made the third tally. The Cats felt pretty good when they went to play Lima Central the follow- ing week. But the team got a shellacking from a very strong, Green Dragon team and limped home with ct 38-6 defeat. CThe less said about this game the better.l ' ., Then the game of the season was at hand. Findlay, our great rival, came to Bowling Green. ln a hard fought battle, the Bobcats defeated the Trojans 20-6. Lee scored the first touchdown on a pass from Downing and lohns' placement was good. Shook made the second score. Then a pass from Simonds to Lee netted the third touchdown. Iohns again split the uprights for the extra point. A large factor toward Bowling Green's winning this game was the splendid work of the line. They did a grand job, so Findlay left Bowling Green, defeated! Bowling Green then travelled to Tiffin for their next game. lt was a sad game for the Columbians, because the Cats defeated them 38-O. ln this game, as all the boys Coach Creason took with him were used, they gained valuable experience. Touchdowns were made by Titus, who made two, Manhart, Shook, Zimmerman, and Lee. page sixty-eighi At the season's half-way point, the Bobcats stood with three wins and one loss, a pretty good average for the team. B. G.'s next game was with New London. The hapless Mid-staters were beaten by the experienced Bobcats 28-7. Quite a few second stringers starred in this game, and they showed that they could really dish out the fight that was in them. B. G.'s first score was made by Iohns, who intercepted a pass on his own twenty yard line. Iohnsie also kicked the extra point. The second touchdown was made by Al Zimmerman, and Iohns' placement was again good. A few minutes later, a safety was scored for Bowling Green when a New Londoner was nailed behind his own goal line. The third and fourth scores for the Bobcats were made by Zimmerman and Patterson, both on passes from Downing. The following Friday, the Creason men travelled to Napoleon. In a hard fought game, B. G. defeated the Corporals 13-6. B. G.'s first touchdown was made by Titus, after he had intercepted the ball and had run 40 yards to the end marker. The second score was made by Shook on a great 38 yard run. Hank also made the extra point on a line plunge. One of the things that kept the score low was the bad, rainy weather on that particular night. Next came unbeaten Fremont. The Little Giants were whittled down a couple of notches with a score of 12-0, Bowling Green's favor. The highlight of the game was the blocking of two Fremont punts by Co-captain Urschel, thereby setting Bowling Green in a scoring position. The two touchdowns were made by Harms from the four yard line and the six yard line. B.G.'s line again proved invincible, because they pushed the Fremont forward wall all over the place. The last game of the season was a dismal one for the Bobcats. We tra- velled to Fostoria and were beaten to the tune of 13-O. lt was a very bad night with rain and fog. Maybe this was one of the reasons why the Cats just couldn't get moving. Also, the officials gave some disputed rulings which didn't help matters any. 1 So, the Bowling Green Bobcat football team of 1946 wound up a great season with six wins and two defeats and a first place tie in the Buckeye League with Fremont and Fostoria. This year's line was great and really helped our strong backfield immensely. Every boy did a Wonderful job. Yes, we can truthfully say that this year's team was really great! page sixty-nine Summa: Hemp, glean fake, fmfiana 0444 Gaacfukuy. Sfaff Ott Creason Van Allen Coach Forrest R. Creason: He completed his fourth season at the helm of Bowling Green High School's athletic destinies by adding a tie for the League grid title and a second straight track championship to his growing list of ac- complishments. The Findlay College graduate also established high moral and scholastic standards for his boys to shoot at, and the trend was to live up to these marks in a Way that truly reflected Creason's aim in the coaching field. Coach Warren F. Ott: His return to the athletic department of our high school paid off in big dividends in the improved style of play of this year's Bobcat line of which he was in charge. Coach Ott, a great lover of bodily contact in athletics, taught his men to enjoy hard work. He performed a com- mendable job of tutoring this year's reserve cage squad and then took his place in the Bobcats' vast track program. Coach Richard Van Allen: He was another athlete who came from Findlay College to our high school as head basketball coach. With three returning lettermen as a nucleus, he built a fine team which copped eleven of seventeen verdicts. One of his biggest assets Was his Willingness to change a style of play to derive a more efficient brand of ball from his charges. He gave this year's ends many helpful hints and performed his tasks as scout and Iunior High Coach with the utmost ability. page seventy-one B .feffmm-en Don Lee Senior, Center: Eagle-Beak,'l as Don is known, was one of the best cen- f ters Bowling Green has ever had. As captain i of the '46-'47 team, Don sparked the team to many victo- 3 ries with his rebounds off the backboard and his excellent ' shooting ability. Henry Shook, Senior, Forward: Hank was really a great player be- . cause of his fine handling of the ball and his abiilty to put it through the hoop from all parts of the court. Hank will be greatly missed on next year's squad. Don Harms, Senior, Forward: Because of his excellent handling of the basketball, Don was a valuable link of the Bobcats' team. As we all saw, Don could put the ball in the basket with great ease too. Harold Manhart, Iunior, Forward: Because of his speed and fine ball handling, Harold was used quite a bit when Van Allen needed a player to break up a close game. Ha- rold ought to do well on next year's Bobcat cage team. lim Cranker Sophomore Guard: A boy who really showed up well on this year's team, lim sank '25 points in his first starting varsity role. lim will be used very much on succeeding B. G. cage squads because of his almost uncanny eye for making baskets. Rex Simonds, Iunior, Forward: Rex was another of Bowling Green's fine players. Known unds and his excellent shooting ability, he will be a vital link in Van Allen's for his rebo '47-'48 squad. Gene Harms, Iunior, Guard: Hoot was really full of spirit, and he could be called upon to keep the team's spirits up when they were rather low. He ought to do a good job as guard next year. Bob Nelson, Iunior, Forward: A fine passer and ball-handler, Bob was al- ways Van's number one replacement. Bob was also very good on mak- ing the sphere go through the hoop. Al Zimmerman, Iunior, Guard: Although he was one of the smallest boys on Van Allen's squad, Al was a great player. His specialty in basketball was in getting the ball down the floor, because he was one of the best drib- blers in Lee tCaptainl page seventyrtwo '32 0. Nelson kms. l T9 had X Simonds Waugh Cranker D.

He will be very valu- able in next year's team. Fred Waugh, Senior, Center: Bashful Freddie, as he was known by his friends, was a fine ball player. He was noted for his pivot shots, going either to the right or left with great ease in order to make a basket. Iohns Manhart Zimmerman Shook E.

Coach Ott's club was bolstered with the addition ot several varsity substitutes after the all-sophomore squad had dropped a number of close de- cisions. The team proved an incubator for Iimmy Cranker, Barney Firsdon, and Norm Mooney, a trio of sophomores who later in the season were promoted to the varsity to raise havoc with Bobcat opponents. The club's overall season's record showed ten games won and tive lost with the last seven straight salted away in the victory column. Firsdon tallied ll6 points in l5 games, and Cranlcer tossed in 94 in nine contests. .9 .8 Boys' intramural basketball was highly successful this year with approxi- mately 55 boys competing on eight teams which were named for their captains The following are the nicknames of the eight teams: Titus' T-Shirt Ticklers Bandeen's Bulldogs, Lee's Lunaticks, Haggerty's Hotshots, Kramp's Krums, Urschel's Undertakers, Raney's Rowdys, and Sautter's Sharks. The games were played in the gym each Monday and Wednesday afternoon after school. The refereeing was done by Coach Ott, faculty adviser of intramurals, and by several practice teachers from B.G.S.U. I The play was divided into two rounds with each team playing seven games in the first round and six in the second round. The second round play was more even competition by the adding of some reserve Bobcats to the weaker intramural teams. Although Titus' T-Shirt Ticklers took both cham- pionships, Urshchel's Undertakers and Sautter's Sharks gave tough competi- tion to the undefeated Ticklers. Members of the championship intramural team were: Captain Don Titus, Ervin Goodman, Tom Patterson, Dick Cary, Harold Davis, and Gus Snyder. The Ticklers were not pressed the entire season by any teom and whizzed through 13 games undefeated. Although it was hard to single out one player from the others as the most valuable, Ervin Goodman was the best asset to the Ticklers, being a high scorer in many of the one-sided tilts played by Titus' team. Ervin scored 77 points in the first round of play by swishing 35 balls through the nets and sinking seven charity tosses. Ervin missed many games in the second round because of sickness and work, but the games in which he played, threatened the foes of the Ticklers. The boys took great pride in the games that were played and fought as hard to Win a victory as the more skillful Bobcats did on the hardwood floor.

The track team of l946 was one of the greatest Bowling Green ever had. The team won the Buckeye League Championship for the second straight year, won the newly-formed Port Clinton Relays by a wide margin, and placed 5th in the Northwestern Ohio District Track Meet. The team also won four regular meets and lost one. We defeated Sylvania and Tiffin in a triangular meet, conquered Findlay and Lima Central in another three way meet, and beat Napoleon and Maumee. Also, the team beat Fremont in a dual meet. We lost to Scott High School of Toledo in a dual meet at Scott Stadium. The l946 team, as we all saw, was a very strong one. The dashes were always taken care of by Don Harms, Don Titus, and Harold Manhart. The hurdles were handled by Iohn Gillespie, Al Zimmerman, and Don Lee, and the 440 yard dash was covered well by Don Titus, Don Kramp, and lack Scott. In the half mile, we had Fred Waugh, Hank Shook, and Hoot Harms, and the mile was run by Tom Patterson, Smoky Williams, and Iohnny Scharf. Our two relay teams were very good too, winning trophies in the Buckeye League Track meet with both teams placing first. Our field events weren't weak by any means either. In the shot-put we had Harold Urschel, Fred Waugh, Don Espen, and Art Miller each putting the weight out quite a few feet. ln the discus we had Dick Cary, who broke the school record in this event, and Urschel, who was not far behind hirn. The high jump was taken care of by Don Lee, Don Espen, and Bob Nelson. Mel Sautter and lack Weissbrod did well in the pole vault, too. Last but not least, our broad jumper, Don Harms, went to the state track finals last year. Don won the broad jump event by leaping 21 feet, 344 inches. lust by entering one man, B. G. tied for sixth place in the state. Considering everything, Bowling Green's l946 track team was by far the greatest in our high school's history. At the time this yearbook went to press the team had l2 lettermen back, and some new boys in track had been doing good work. We hoped that this year's team would soar to even greater heights. i Front Row-left to right: Tom Kayser, Gene Bowlus, Herb Wyandt Second Row-lack Weissbrod, Bill Evans, Ioyce Meade, lim Schwarz, Ralph Fortney, Bob Nixon This year something new was added to the school sports, namely, a tumbling team. Under the supervision of Coach Warren F. Ott this team aimed to give boys who had good coordination and athletic ability a chance to show it. These musclemen learned to do many stunts, and they performed for the public between the halves of some of the basketball games. They worked well together and acquired a perfect sense of timing which is so necessary in order to keep from getting hurt. Some of the individual stunts consisted of various types of flips, backward and forward rolls, handsprings, and many other nerve testing feats. The team was well received by both students and the public, so tumbling will probably continue to be popular for many years. page seventyvnine lEII2L'5 AH TICS I XX X P if S W X Z! A?-' f f?

So it is with summer vacations. Saying good-bye to our summer-time romances and coming back to school were hard tasks for most of us. However, when registration day finally arrived we didn't seem to feel too badly about it. Gradually we fell back into the schedule of daily classes. This picture illustrates a typical registration day line. Don Titus and Dale Otley are working industriously over their schedules, supposedly, while lim Hagerty willingly poses for the camera. Another thing we usually associate with the first day of school is the long line at Principal I. W. Parlette's office for changes in schedules. Why is it that during the summer students always change their minds about their schedules? Look at that line! I think I'd rather go without a lock. Well, to leave you with a happy thought, going to school every day keeps Bud Gallier away! Let's go, Let's fight, Let's win. Yea team! The first pep meet of the year started off with a bang. There we were out there yelling with all the spirit that was needed. lt was at this pep session that we first heard our new fight song. With the cheer- leaders and the band leading us, we were ready to tackle anybody. And so our first pep meet ended with our cheers ringing out. Oh boy, We have to win. h.m,,,,. page eigh ty-six Patiently agreeable to the likes and dis- likes of the student body, Mr. D. G. Organ, along with his mechanical band, willingly furnished the music for the after game dances and for other special occasions. Since the students disagreed as to Whether fast or slow pieces should be played, Mr. Organ compromised by playing a selection of each kind. So we present to you Maestro Organ. Shall we have music? Do you remember the last football dance? Bev Krausa busied herself all day dressing the gym up for the occasion. Soft lights, a moon, and Alec all combined to make the dance an enjoyable affair. Yes, stretched between two goal posts was a life size picture of Alec and all over the walls were smaller pictures of him. Near the end of the dance everyone dashed to get a part of poor Alec for a souvenir. After the cheers had died down and the final gun had sounded there was at once a mad dash to get in line at the dance. Those popular after game dances, sponsored by the junior class, were held in the gym. Hold the first dance for me will you, Mary? One, two, three, four. As the lights were dimmed, Char Schwind and Bob Nel- son make a droolsome twosome. page eighty-seven page eightyveight The Christmas Assembly was such a devotional and reverent service that it left us with the true Christmas spirit. It was built around the hymns that the chorus sang. After the processional, which was Adeste Fidelesf' Rex Sirnonds read the prayer. Following this, the Iunior High Chorus sang a humorous rendition of The Night Before Christmas. They sang other songs from the balcony where they were seated. Solos by Virginia Searle and Edwina Raydure added to the enjoyment of the audience. The Scripture reading concluded the program which was pre- sented on the stage made beautiful by evergreens and an attractively decor- ated Christmas tree. Merry Christmas was the original but appropriate name for the Senior Girls' Christ- mas formal, Which was held in the Rec Hall on a snowy, December evening. The music of Stan Hesselbart's orchestra was thorough- ly enjoyed by many couples. The decorations consisted of a roof of red and white streamers, a wreath of evergreen large enough for couples to dance through, and a picture window covering the entire west end of the hall. Punch and Christmas cookies, served from a push cart, offered a pleasant interlude from dancing. During the last dance, as the picture shows, the streamers were pulled down. The annual Hi-Y Carnival was held on Saturday, February 22, in the high school gym. There was dancing, penny pitching, the shooting of foul shots and darts, fishing, and throwing shots at a target. There was also a trip in disguise through the boys' locker room. The darkened hallway and the steamy showers gave the appearance of an errie poolroom. Two men, called the killers, could be seen in the foreground, puffing on cigars and engaged in a poker game. Suddenly, before our eyes, one man became enraged and shot the other. The excursion ended with everyone tearing for the door and safety. - Wrestling and boxing matches climaxed with the wrestle royal, established another means of spending money. The wrestle royal which started as a free- for-all among Harold Urschel, Fred Waugh, Mel Sautter, Bill Downing, and Dana Haney finally included the two referees, Don Titus and Don Iohns, surprising not only the crowd but the refs also. Hootie Harms attracted large crowds by calling off door prizes. Everyone was hopeful, but there were only a luckey few. Finally we staggered home happy but penniless. page eighty-nine A page ninety The Easter assembly sponsored by the Hi-Y and Y-Teens groups, was held in the auditorium on April l. Master of ceremonies, Tom Klever, intro- duced the speaker, Dr. W. A. Zaugg, from Bowling Green State University, who showed us the importance of religion in our lives. A prayer, and scripture reading, and songs by the A Cappella Choir completed the program. i Hi-Y and Y-Teen members combined their social activities this year with a pot luck supper held in the cafeteria, followed by a round table discussion on the problems of a high school youth. Mr. F. G. Skibbie was chairman for the discussion. While subduing some of the speakers, Mr. Skibbie attempted to keep the talks on the topic to be discussed. After the program members folded crippled children's seals. Shure and it was a true bit of old Ireland in the gym on March 13 when all the lads and lassies dressed in their brightest green stepped out to dance at O'Hooligans Hop. The gym was decorated in green streamers and high black hats, in keeping with St. Patrick's Day. ' Seventeen seniors made up the cast which on March 21, presented a laugh- rich comedy, Snafu. Sound effects and stage equipment were handled expertly. With the able direction of Miss Virginia Mallory and Mrs. Paul Stark the play was a sure success. The Kampus Kats were at their best the night of the Hi-Y formal. Spring formals were the mode for the affair. The Hi-Y deserved orchids for their effort. The long awaited night arrived the night of the Iunior-Senior Prom. The Iuniors, who had been working for weeks beforehand, had transformed the Rec Hall into dreamland. Everyone enjoyed himself at this magnificent dance. May 29-Graduation day. We walked across the auditorium stage for the last time to receive those much anticipated diplomas. We were ready to go out and meet the World, so they said. What a day with our caps sliding around! XG Up -WW A , .X xWf L Q. X V7 if A X , 'Q-i 11 'XX f 24 h I.
