Wartime conditions... have caused many changes...in the lives of students of Fordson High Schoo1....The outlook on life has a different spirit...the Spirit of Nineteen-Forty-Four....This spirit differs from that of other years because...whi 1e former students were interested in winning the war...we have high hopes also of helping to make a lasting peace.... Fordson High School students...have done a great deal toward winning the war...through generous pur- chases of war bonds and stamps...through enthusias- tic responses to the various local drives.... Yet...this is only the beginning.... Many of our boys will sacrifice coI Iege...jobs... even high school...for actual combat duty....Girl will sacrifice careers for service in factories... hospitals...branches of the armed forces.... The class of 19HI...hopes that after the war is won ...an International spirit of cooperation...wi11 exist throughout the world....An end must be put to possibility of future wars....We will take our places in the rehabilitation of our world...now blasted by war.... Our school is a nucleus of the spirit...we must see operative throughout the world....With this in mind ... we... members of the OHH Fleur de Lis staff... take pleasure in dedicating this annual...to Ford- son students...who have served...and who will serve their country...in war and in peace.... 1 Administration ... One of the most active and influential men in the Fordson school system... is Harvey H. Lowrey...Superintendent of schools....Mr. Lowrey has been as- sociated with Fordson educational affairs since 1921...when he assumed the super intendency of the system.... In addition to his duties as superintend- ent...Mr. Lowrey also is active in civic and church affair s. ...He was an important member of the group which formed the Dearborn City Charter...has taught a Sunday School class at Mt. Olivet Methodist Church for the past twenty years...ho 1ds important offices with the Rotary Clubs............... Superintendent Lowrey...has earned three degrees...including his doctorate ...and has made himself an integral part of the Fordson school system.... The Fordson Board of Education has diverse duties...all re 1 ated...e ither directly or indirect1y...to the welfare of the school system and of the com- munity.... The Board appoints such officers as the superintendent of schools...the as- sistant superintendent...the director of the bureau of educational results and research... business manager...at torney... auditor... architect when needed ...and engineer.... 11 also is empowered to appoint officials necessary to the carrying out of various operat ions. ..as in taking the school census.... The Board of Education chooses sites for and builds necessary buildings... appoints the many teachers needed...arranges for and permits outside use of the schoolrooms, auditoriums, and gymnasiums of schools in the Fordson sys- and selects proper and appropriate textbooks.... ret George E. Brady President FRED BEARD Vice-President ERVIN HOWARD Assistant Superintendent Here and There • • • Fordson Faculty Men in Service Since December 7, 1941...some of Fordson's most prominent faculty members... have left for military service....Their students have confidence... that they wiH do as fine a job for their country...as they have done for Fordson....

FORDSON VICTORY SONG Hail to Fordson, Michigan's state chambion team, A rugged line without sag or seam, Punting and passing right on the beam; Down the field for touchdowns they stream. Hail to the Tractors, who with steam Ploughed under Catholic Central, rated Detroit's cream; Kith victory in 1944 again their theme. Hail to Fordson in football----Michigan's supreme. Vritten by School Board Member Homer Beadle and introduced at 1943 Victory Football Banquet. The Season in Review... In the first step of its victorious march...Fordson trounced the Monroe Tro- jans l3--9....Ted Berce's touchdown pass to Gus P1och...and Henry Haag's thirty-yard run...were the high points of the game....The Tractors were ful- ly justified in looking forward to a great season.... Although tied at 7--7 at the half...the B1ue-and-Golos tooK advantage of every opening in their second game...and vanquished Saginaw Arthur Hill 23-7.... Passing was the keynote of the afternoon....with Ploch crossing the goal line after receiving throws from Haag and Berce....The other Fordson tally was provided by Bob LaPorte's seven-yard end run.... The Tractors barely nosed out Muskegon... lt--l3...for their closest game of the season.... Once again... Ted Berce's passing to Ploch and Haag gave Ford- son its advantage.... 1n this game...Muskegon made as many touchdowns as all of the other Fordson opponents did in the whole season.... On Dad's Day ...Fordson submerged Royal Oak...I9--0....The points were made by passes from Berce to Ploch and Ray Paruch...and by LaPorte's powerful running....From the start of the game...Fordson was never headed in the wrong d i rect i on.... Fordson crushed Grosse Point e... 32--6... for its fifth win of the season.... This time ■..running predominated...with three long touchdown runs by Jim Westby providing the bulk of the Fordson scoring....Sam Gelardi and LaPorte plodded through the opponents' line for the other tallies.... The Wyandotte squad proved to be even easier to beat.... Every player on the Fordson eleven figured in the 25--0 triumph.... It was a cold evening...with snow fal1ing...when the Savage-Men encountered one of the best teams in the stat e...Detroit Catholic Central.... Throughout the game...the ball was in Central territory...but the Shamrock defense tightened in the crucial moments....Final1y...with less than two minutes to go...Ted Berce received the ball...and tried to spot a clear man....All were covered...and Ted... finding an op ening.. . ran down an avenue of victory...and scored standing up....When the play was over...few in the stands knew how it had happened...but all was excitement....Fordson won. .. 6--0...and at last possessed that cherished goal... an undefeated...untied... season.... v; Pictured above...are seven of Fordson's ranking gridmen...boys whose oomph in football... put the local team far out ahead....

In seventeen games...during the regular schedule and regionals...only two losses were sustained...and in both of these encounters...the fine sportsmanship of Ford- son High School was displayed....The quintet concentrated on defense...a fact manifested by low scores of opposing fives.. ..When Fordson's men had the ball...they took few chances.... and thus our scores were never very high.... It has often been said...that too many games on edge are not good for any team....But this was the string of events...that led up to the Fordson-Catholic Central fracas.... Came the Regionals.... Then the basketeers were surprised by the Wyandotte aggrega- ti on... who. .. a 11hough having suffered two previous defeats at the hands of the Tractors...he Id the lead for the first three quarters____Against Ecorse our quintet amassed a large early lead...which was slowly whittled down to four points at the finish....The Shramrocks then handed the Tractors the heart- breaking 18-15 setback that ended the season---- Fordson's basketeers...were rated tops by Coach Russell Catherman ...who has only praise for the fine attitudes and sportsmanship displayed by the 1941 squad....PIctured here are...(top row)... Ted Berce...Jlm Came ron... Ros s St eggl es... (and Lower row)... Bob Wolff ...and Aldo Bonamlcl.... Could Fordson be beaten?.... Even during the first half of the sea- son...It didn't seem that way...for the Tractor aggregation had enough first-class players to make two full teams.... Consequenti y ...the lineup was jumbled from game to game to permit all to play... Len Mazur captal n ed- the cagers during the first semester... and al- though he played very little because of InjurIes...he provided the fire that made the squad play to its utmost....He...with Gus Ploch and Henry Haag...was lost at the time of January graduation.... Ploch and Haag were valuable assets to the team...and their loss was a considerable one...as shown by Royal Oak's victory at the offset of the new season.... Now the team consisted of Ross Steggles...co-captain and center... Ted Berce and Jim Cameron at forward pos i t ion-s... and Aldo Bonamici and Co-Captain Bob Wolff at guard....

Earning their way easily to the regionals... the Tractors climbed higher and higher. . . unti 1 the fateful Saturday night when they bowed to Catholic Centra1...after a record of thirteen wins in fourteen games in the regular season....Success of the team de- pended on the ability of Coach Russell Catherman...whose never- failing good sense...took the boys to the top.... Fordson 20--Jackson 18 Despite the injury of Captain Len Mazur in the opening min- utes of the game...Fordson led all the way and withstood a late Jackson rally....The team showed promise of a fine sea- son. ... Fordson 38--Saginaw 27 Ted Berce paced a fast Tractor five by tallying twelve times ....Fordson gained throughout the contest...and pulled away at the finish to win against a formidable opponent.... Fordson 3l--Grosse Pointe 30 Although Len Mazur again was injured at the start of the fracas... Fordson established an 18-11 lead at the half.... The Grosse Pointe five then built up a six-point margin... which was slowly whittled away ....With the score standing at thirty-al 1. . . a free throw by Gus Ploch counted for the fin- al marker of the thrilling en- counter. ... Fordson 37--Monroe 18 A strong Fordson quintet... swamped an outclassed Monroe f i ve. ... Fordson 27--Royal Oak 21 Two powerful undefeated squads ...faced each other on the Oak court....At the start of the first quarter... wi th the score at ten-al1...Mazur entered the contest...and the Tractormen showly forged ahead until the close of the game.... Fordson 30--Lincoln Park 13 The Fordson cagers. . . e asi 1y overwhelmed a feeble Lincoln Park five.... Fordson 24--River Rouge 16 At times...the Rouge squad ap- proached the Fordson lead... but the final decision never was in doubt.... Fordson I9--Wyandotte 14 Allowing the Bears but two field goals...Fordson easily vanquished the Wyandotte hoop- sters in a slow game.... Fordson 23--Royal Oak 24 The Royal Oak basketeers...de- veloped an early lead...and strengthened it until the tal- ly read 20-13 with six minutes left in the final quarter...At this point... goals by Aldo Bonamici... Bob Wolff...and Jim Cameron... evened the score at 23 points....An Oak free throw in the last fifteen seconds... gave them the margin....The Tractor performance lacked its usual bri11 i ance because of two factors: They had lost the services of Len Mazur.•.Henry Haag...and Gus Ploch through mid-year graduation...and the weak opposition of their three previous games had slowed them app reci ably.... Fordson 30--Monroe 16 A determined Fordson quintet for the second time this sea- son...went onto the floor to outplay a slow Monroe five.... Fordson 1 0--Lincoln Park 18 Once again...the Lihcoln Park five proved no match for the mighty Tractors....For the first time in the season...our boys reached the forty-mark... demonstrating their offense in full swing.... Fordson 15--DeLaSal 1 e 15 The Tractors looked very good as they trounced a weak DeLa- Sa11 e f i ve.... Fordson N7--Wyan dotte 28 Ted Berce led the way...by scoring twenty-two tallies in Fordson's best-played game.... Wyandotte couldn't get started ...and our squad couldn't be stopped.... Fordson 30--Grosse Pointe 25 The 81ue Devils put up a good fight for three quarters...but the Tractors furnished one of their last-minute rallies... and it was all over.... REGIONAlS AT FORDSON Fordson I 7--Wyandotte II A surprising Wyandotte quintet held a slim lead...until the last quarter when Fordson drew away....The Tractors were de- finitely off for the most part of the game.... Fordson 28--Ecorse 21 The Tractors built up a large lead against the lofty Ecorsj basketeers...and maintained it throughout the game....Our quintet showed improvement... and the fans anticipated an exciting battle with Catholic Cent ral.... The Shamrock hoopsters main- tained a slim margin through- out the contest.... At any spot in the game...the Tractors could have captured the lead.. ..but the Shramrocks' defense was too tight... .
