Galion students give a cheer in his tribal tongue every time they go to a game. This has interest- ed Ish's people so much that they have sent him as a spy to our school to snoop at all events and return with a detailed report of the peculiar doings of a mod- ern institution of learning. A glance at annuals of bygone years will show that the Indian as a theme has 'rxff - -if A 'REQ I been used a number 4 '- Z fn - Q --qi.ns.s... of times. These Indians were all noble ancestors of Ish's. But it's been a long time since t h e y i v e looked into affairs around G. H. S. So, the little fel- low pulled on his feathers, gathered up his Wampum belt an d toma- hawlc, pulled on a new pair of moccasins and came as our little visitor. What he found will make interesting stories told around a campfire amid the tall pines of his native country. What he saw will make interesting stories for all of us to tell our children and grandchild- ren in those hazy days on calendars not yet printed. .WF This then is little Ish's work. This Spy is the report he will take back to the SSSSSSSS tribe to tell them of the achievements and of the antics of an Ohio tribe sometimes called the Galion- ites, sometimes called the Orangemen, sometimes called the Tigers. He will curdle their blood with tales of warriors who play under flaming lights before mobs who utter yells more blood curdling than any Indian war whoops ever heard. He will tell them of teachers constantly on the war path imposing sentences on defenseless students more terrible than any tortures devised by the redskins. He will demonstrate strange dancing called jitterbugging, more fatiguing than any dances done by his people to cele- brate a great victory. He will give ac- counts of peculiar rituals in a variety of organizations. He will try to describe musical instruments widely different from the tom-toms of his race. He will try to explain the queer language of the young Galion High School crowd and find it untranslatable. As a climax he will show the pictures of the beautiful young pale faced maid- ens and the dusky Indian beauties will writhe in jealousy. And finally he will impress upon the youngsters of the tribe the vast learning of these Galion students. He will awe them with tales of the rigors of studying far into the night, of reading huge volumes, of writing long papers. So, review the year with Ish as we show him in his native garb as he spies on G. H. S. ' 2' WM H i MSE' , '21-J-pm... ' If, f gm - 1 L E B7 DAY Morning sunlight on red brick walls. From all directions students converge upon the focal point of their day's activ- ity, Galion High School. They congre- gate on the steps and talk. They whistle at other students. On winter days they may throw a forbidden snowball. In the balm of early spring they do such juve- nile things as play with yo-yos or blow brightly colored bubbles. These are the sights of our school by day. A bell rings authoritatively and they rush into the building as if they were wildly eager for knowledge. The steady hum of many voices, the lilt of laughter, the clang of locker doors being slammed, the jubilant Hi to welcome a fellow student, the polite Good Morning as a faculty member passes. These are the sounds of our school by day. The quiet bell. Where's the quiet? The tardy bell. Where's McManes? The morning announcements. Classes. How long until lunch time? The rush for food. Back again. Intramural games. Romance in the halls. Activity period. Club meet- ings, committee meetings. Who'll take my home room, Mr. Pickering? Classes. How long until four o'clock? The welcome bell. Football practice, play practice, bas- ketball practice, make-up work. I can't stay for detention. I have to work. A coke, a milkshake. See you tonightf' This is what little Ish found by day. Bewildered he was as he hung up his head piece of feathers and put the picture of his favorite pin-up girl on his locker door. Sixteen nights, Ish. Read that bul- letin! Donit mind the mouse. What would a locker be without a pet? Get your schedule card, fella! Every day is a busy day in G. H. S. MORNlN6 MUDDLE Alarm clocks jangle in hundreds of Galion homes. Sleepy protests are of no avail. Yawns, sighs, the stretching of aching muscles-another day begins for the G. H. S. gang. Breakfast. For our slim co-eds that means a glass of orange juice, preferably sipped, as Veda Dysing- er demonstrates, during the ritual of the morning hair-do. For our huskies, not so slim, a man-size meal. Make it pan- cakes, toast, rolls, and fruit. From every direction they stream to- ward the mecca of knowledge. The school bus arrives, groups gather on the steps, a janitor raises the Hag. A bell rings loudly and the crowd jostles its way into the building. G. H. S. is open for busi- ness again. The quiet bell-wrongly named, we assure all the uninformed. Romantically inclined couples linger until irate home- room teachers shoo them along. The tardy bell- Good morning. The an- nouncements this morning-. A speech student is on the air to tell of the events of the day ahead. Lorrine Decker is the lady of the microphone and Juanita Da- vis is evidently contemplating a commer- cial about the youth center. Another bell-classes begin. But in one home in the city a sleepy head is just emerging into consciousness. The hands of the clock are at 8:53 and Joe Mc- Manes, champion late riser, begins to think seriously that maybe he'll get up and go about the business of getting him- self some learning. The remains of last night's lunch are by his side, the literary masterpiece which kept him reading late is in plain view. Get going, Joe. Time's a wasting! Sewing class. Learn to sew a straight seam, girls. You are the future of Amer- ica. Some day you'll be copying the latest Vogue creations. World History-and map study. Miss Tracht is asking Osborne some tricky questions, but she can't stump that chap. Van Meter with the intensity of a budding young scientist performs an ex- periment in the chemistry lab. Dozens of classes are busily at work- English, Latin, Spanish, mathematics, biology, physical education-the educa- tional machine is at work on its victims. Well, no-slight error-one victim hasn't yet reported for action. Campus deserted, silence over all and McManes arrives. Don't worry, Joe, it's detention anyway so why waste precious energy. The morning hours pass-swiftly at Hrst and then slacken as lunch time ar- rives. A first aid class learns to revive those who can't stand the gaff. Decker and Harter are working on two nameless heroes. Eleven forty-just five minutes. Books close softly, like runners getting set on their marks, students slide sly feet into the aisle, poise their bodies for the spring, one eye one the clock, one eye on the door. Then the great stampede as the hungry mob dashes for chow. The morn- ing is over. 'A AxN,,,, -Q., 9-I ...lx ,Q I 2' Q L44 N . FL M , ,nn 4' gm? 5? I1 ,K it , .YK . 'E f Sw J 5 5 if 'I X in I --.

Will you please take that dog out- side? Any afternoon, you can hear it. The returning mob is gleefully followed by the canine population of the town. Coulter's little black cocker sneaks into the north door. Farina's crafty Caesar has been a visitor in every class. Big dogs, little dogs-they stalk the halls and romp the campus. Here Lucius has been as- signed the task of bouncer. The culprit of course will be admitted by the next sophomore up the path. Teachers resent the competition of workmen outside the building. Mr. Pick- ering, how can you expect me to have class with that noise outside my room. My nerves won't stand it and I simply can't make myself heard. Anyway, the building got all dressed up. Afternoon schedule. Activity period- club meetings, committee meetings, re- hearsals, except of course on Holy Mon- day when not a soul stirs from his home room. Line forms to the right. Classes. Speech-the awful noises are explained as voice cultivation. Here they train for posture perfection. Easy there, Muth. Salesmanship schemes. A drink of cider with every Spy sold and a look at the only red bat in captivity. Super strate- gists are Baer and Monroe. Chest testing day. Right this way for an X-Ray. Galion high cooperates in the national drive against tuberculosis. All these manly torsos and nary a T. B. germ. Bulletin boards afford pleasure and give information about a busy school. Here students are admiring the clever basketball board complete with pictures of the team and coaches, game statistics and newspaper clippings. A hand points to a sign. The sign warns Pugh and Phipps that parking will no longer be tolerated. Didn't work. Afternoon assemblies. Some are stu- dent presentations, some are presented by guest artists, some are rallies for ap- proaching games. One of the most im- pressive we have attended was the Hi-Y service honoring the Galion high school alumni members and ex-students who gave their lives in the World War II. An honor plaque with the names of our valiant dead inscribed was presented to the school and now hangs in the main corridor. Dickhart, Vossers, ancl Hublcy took part in the solemn dedicatory ex- ercises. During fifth period the Spy grows to maturity in room 306. A typewriter clicks. Pencils scratch over paper. The dummy grows in size. Veda Dysinger, after one lesson in photography, takes a shot of the editor and the photographer. See Spy page for proof of results. f The future Van Goghs of the advanced art class get down to some serious work. This class has some very talented artists -Evans, Bristow, Taylor, Beegle, Pugh and Myers to name only a few. Art stu- dents and Mrs. Liddell are always ready to contribute their time and efforts to the making of posters, the designing of pro- gram covers, or what other art work do you want done? AFTER .S'CfIO0I ACTIVITIES' Four o,clock and the day is over. What's that? Over-for how many? An- other day begins at four. Many students scurry to jobs,in factories and stores. Beecher stirs a concoction for Jim Chinni fhe of the pork pie hat, while smiling Barbara Poland and Bea Shockley look on. Tickets for the game will be sold at the box office at four o'clock.,' That announcement is good for a jammed cor- ridor any day. That basketball team certainly furnished us with thrills. Here the crowd waits to buy tickets to the Norwalk game. In a babble of conversation over events of the day, many co-eds saunter down- town for a coke. They chat to the accom- paniment of juke box music and plan what they will do tonight. Adair, Barbara, Janet, Maxine and Carol recuperate after a hard day. The schoolls brawny men of the grid- iron ancl the court have their late after- noon hours all planned in advance. It's real work, but it,s fun. What do Treisch, Vossers and Neff talk about as they dress for basketball practice? Later after a hard workout, Ramsey, Baer and Vossers sing under the showers as splashing water relaxes tired muscles. When a play is on the boards, four olclock means rehearsal. Not only does the cast work faithfully but stage crews must plan their effects. Here the sound experts, Ness, Wolf, Carleton and Seeds, experiment. Their object is to produce the sound of an old jaloppy starting. Result-perfect and decidedly realistic. That Feidner boy wields a mean cleav- er as he dissects a chicken. He's practical- ly inclispensible to Mr. Kroger. Some students like to walk and com- mune with nature. Tuscan just can't wait for spring, because spring means baseball and that's what Tuscan thinks of when he thinks of spring--mostly. Here he inspects the torn and bleeding bases and wonders if new equipment will be forth- coming before the local nine starts that tough schedule of games. Sophomore girls are usually in an in- decisive state. What'll we do? Have a coke? Go to the library? Go home? Don't be idiotic. Stand around a bit in the spring sunshine and make up your minds. Lil Georgie Triesch makes a phone call and gosh it must be good news! - In room 211 the captives sit. McManes and other late comers are there. Also a few who forgot to come at all. Also those cases of Talking after the quiet bell. - Wasting time in study hall. - Disturb- ance in classf'- Leaving building with- out permission. - Making noise like a sheep. Was that somebody you? Their day lasts until four-thirty and we hadn't the heart to photograph their misery. So, what do we do after school? We plan for the night that's coming. BBTECI x A Q19 . 4 If 3 , , A I ,.

This year, however, much to the distress of its mem- 1 bers, the club has not been able to fulfill their many clever ideas. Although the club and its sponsor, Mrs. Roth, have worked without ceasing, they were finally informed that because of the crowded schedule they could not become the active organization of their hopes.

The profits go to buy those nifty numerals and letters which these athletic co-eds wear so proudly. Hockey, bowling, basketball, volley ball, softball. archery, tennis-these are the sports in which the G. A. A. excels under the capable direction of Miss Rose Seifert. To climax their season, the girls were hostesses at Sports Day with teams from llucyrus, Sandusky, Shelby, Nlansfield and Marion as guests. The Sandusky girls took home the trophy but the Galion gals were in second place, only two points behind the winners. ln its second year of activity the G. A.

The cluhis high ideals and activities have made it one of the most outstanding clubs in the school. ln rhc parade of important events was the Nlother and Daughtei Banquet, the joint meeting with the Hi-Y, the as- sembly, and the selling of candy at bas- ketball games. The highly commviidahli- work extend- ed hy the G. R. is in lacing life squarely: linding and giving the best. Another social affair which added to the merriment of the school year was the annual Sweetheart Party held at the Jun- ior High School. This traditional party was held on Saturday, March 16. The highlights of the year came when the Juniors were initiated into the club. Attending church in a group each month and the selling of Christmas cards made up the remainder of the year's ac- tivitics. 6. R. 0fhters limi l filiapiniin. lrlarvdiiig. llv-itz inan.

Under the co-sponsorship of Miss Kath- ryn Harris and Miss Arvilla Emmenegger the two groups worked together making this year the success that it was. Both the G. R. and Blue Triangle worked together on the Sweetheart Party which everybody enjoyed. The Junior High Gym was decorated to perfection fthanks to some Hi-Y members, with blue, pink and white streamers, rose-buds and trellises. An orchestra from Ohio Wesleyan furnished some hot music for all the hep-cats. The club attended church in a body once each month and held monthly night meetings which were presided over by lrene Kottyan, their energetic presidentg Barbara Shaffer, dependable Vice-Presi- dent, and Betty Hart, always efficiently preparing notes for the minutesg with Nleroe Rick handling the money situation.

Mr. Probst lil-,V Through the able leadership of Presi- dent Dickhart and the whole-hearted co- operation of the members, the Hi-Y proved itself one of Galion High School's finest service organizations. Some of the projects and activities of the Hi-Y club this year were: the opera- tion and management of the concessions stand at the football games, the procuring and dedication of the much debated Hldonor Plaquef' monthly night meetings, and the highlight of our activities, the Sweetheart Partyf, The officers, who proved to be great helps to Pres. Dickhart were: Vice Presi- dent John Vossers, Secretary Joe Mc- Guire, Treasurer Dick Klockner, and Sgt. at Arms Art Thoman, who was succeeded by George Stoner. One ofkthe highlights of every meeting was the reading of lVlcGuire's minutes. This is an example of a typical meeting: Fell 11, 1946 ' 43 members present Vossers opened the meeting in the ab- sence of President Dickhart. Roll was taken and minutes read and approved. Shifiey read the scripture which was fol- lowed by the Lord,s Prayer. Vossers re- minded the committees for the Sweet- heart Party and the Father and Son Banquet to get the dates set for their parties. The Vice President then read a letter from the district board informing us of the district meeting at Marion on Sunday, March 17th. He also read the delayed invitation from Bucyrus for a volleyball game Feb. 4, 1946. lVlr. Probst explained the dedication ceremony set for Friday, Feb. 14th. Klockner informed a few negligent members of default of payment of clues. He also was as usual unable to give a treasurerys report on account of the un- balanced condition of the books. W. Monroe said that we would attend church the last Sunday of the month and would the members please show up. The church has not yet been chosen. Then to pass the time Mr. Probst read a riddle about Dale Carnegie, but because of the ignorance of the group Mr. Probst was forced to reveal the answer. The meeting adjourned in confusion as usual. Joe McGuire, Sec. F0 0135 li0MfMv4KfR5' 0F v4MfRlC4 Planning menus, experimenting with home furnishings, plying their needles diligently-these are the things the F. H. A. girls do under the supervision of Miss Helen Smith. After being disbanded for a year, the organization resumed ac- tivity this year and completed a com- mendable program. Early in the season the girls of the F. H. A. gave a splendid assembly pro- gram ably assisted by a few select out- siders. The theme was romance, which we are told often leads to home making. Later in the year the members put their needlework on display in the main cor- ridor and the exhibition passed the critical inspection of student experts. Several social affairs were held, for instance, a hay ride on one of the coldest, windiest nights of winter. Four delegates were sent to the state meeting at Columbus. These girls, Ruth Richardson, Shirley Nichols, Teresa Mar- tin and Marianne Baird, enjoyed meeting other F. H. A. enthusiasts and brought back helpful reports. Two spring parties were given. At one the girls of the ninth grade were enter- tained and given information concerning the organization. The mothers of mem- bers were guests at the other and were shown the completed projects of F. H. A. girls. The F. H. A. is national in scope, being affiliated with the American Home Economics Association, the American Vo- cational Association, and the National Education Association.

The held in November are as follows' David Schultz, Presidentg John Gill, Vicle Presi- dentg and John Monroe, Secretary-Treas- urer. Evening meetings of the club are held about once a month and a constitu- tion was adopted in December regulating membership, dues, election of officers, and occurrence of meetings. An appre- ciation of mathematics is necessary for eligibility as a member and regular attendance is expected, except in the case of adult members who are not able to regularly attend weekly meetings.

Admission slips, out-of-room permits, dismissal-from-class blanks, excuses, de- tention notices, building-leaving forms, tardy notices, bulletins, eligibility lists, the program of studies, the famed Student Guidance bulletin, the schedule of daily toil, fire drill regulations, room assign- ments-they're all here to remind us what school in the machine age was like. All day long you sign your name, you answer the question Why,',-you take a slip from someone and hand it to someone else-you sign your name and answer another question. Such minutia of the system are necessary to the smooth run- ning of a school, they say. So, lest we for- get by the time the callouses on our writing fingers heal, glance at the back- ground and try to figure mathematically how much time would be saved if only- Girls of Galion high school have long advocated football for women. Do you recognize this demoness of the gridiron? Jane Place is surrounded by admiring fans after scoring on a line drive in a practice game. Coulter, strong man of many a committee is lured into helping the decorating com- mittee of the G. R. Sweetheart party. Barbara Shaffer, Marilyn Glenn and Lora Jean Hefflefinger are the luresses. First day of the hunting season and a group of our intrepid bunny chasers are off to the woods. Baer, Vossers, Thoman, Farina and Logan plan their diabolical mode of campaign before shaking the academic dust from their feet. The boys go gaily off-dozens of them, scores of them, while co-eds pine away the hours in dismal classrooms devoid of interest. 'Tain't fair, gals! Before the Honor Plaque dedicated to the dead war heroes of the school, Jim Ness pauses for a moment of tribute and per- haps a moment of fond memory, too. The name of Jim's older brother, Hugh, is one of those on this roll of honor. Visual education is an important feature of school life. Motion pictures are used for' many assemblies and for several class- es. A number of students are trained as operators and are constantly in demand not only for school movies but for service at meetings of various civic organizations. Miller and Price are pictured operating the machine for a biology class movie. A welcome G. I. returned to G. H. S. around mid-term time. Mr. Walters fBuckey to studentsl, who taught biology before his induction into the armed forces, came back for a brief stay. He taught the senior science class during the time he was with us and assisted in the study hall during several periods each day. At the beginning of the Spring quarter at Ohio State University, Mr. Walters deserted us again to resume his studies there. Although we were sorry to have him leave we hope he is success- ful in realizing his ambition to study medicine. An insidious beastie in the form of the little mumps germ invaded our pleasant precincts in the merry month of March. Dozens of students were mowed down in one fell swoop. The popular pastime was to stroke one's rear jaw regions and hope that the swelling one felt was just sym- pathetic imagination. We decided that our yearbook would not be faithful to its duty of recording the year's events if we omitted a picture of some victim of the malady. So, when we heard that Farina had taken to his bed we howled with one accord, Angelo's our man, and sent Joe hustling to do his stuff. You sure look purty, Farina! Another picture tells the story of many affairs. A crowd pours into the auditor- ium. Ushers ush them to their seats, fthe wrong ones fairly consistentlyj, ticket stubs clutter the floor, the lights dim, the doors bang shut, and another play, or concert is under way. We present with pride the junior high school basketball team. Although not in any way connected with this school, their splendid record, ten victories, one defeat, deserves recognition from their elders. These lads played with a spirit of co-op- eration that won the admiration of all who saw them. They represented Galion proudly as they encountered stiff oppo- sition. They played with zest-for the game and with a sportsmanlike attitude. We congratulate them heartily for a thrilling- ly successful season. We look ahead into the future and believe we see a state championship in about the year 1949. SENIKJRS: Ora lraclut D. Shaw. C. Lucius. lf. Sebastian. D. Potter. W. She-after. R. Nlclicnry. D.

For a number of vcars the vocational trades and industries department has been one of the integral parts of our school, training boys for positions requiring skill in machine operation and ability to do the many tasks a modern factory pre- sents. Not only does our vocational department give fundamental training in all trades, but it specializes in machine shop work and welding so that its graduates will fit into the local industrial piogram. In the shop the students get actual experience by working on products brought in by local shops and individuals. Senior boys work part time in important Galion industries. They become a real part of the shop during the time they are employed and are graded by the shop foremen. In addition to the practical work, the vo- cational students learn mathematics, shop science, blueprint reading and drafting. Piner Long is co-ordinator of Galion High's vocational department and Ora Tracht is his able assistant. JUNIURS: lu-sr Ron' R. l.illu. I.. Ross. R. Cfnrli-mn. H. Ki-llog.

In the picture above the officers of the society are seen basking luxuriously in the honor of mem- bership in the widely known national group. We are sorry that we cannot pub- lish a picture of the new members, who are usually inducted into membership in March, but as we go to press in the middle of April the election has not yet been held. A change in the rules made by the committee of faculty members sponsoring the organization denies mem- bership to juniors and gives seniors the honor of belonging during only the last several weeks of the school year.

These six were chosen last spring by the entire vote of the faculty and membership of their class as those best exemplifying splendid leadership, worthy character, and loyal service to Galion High School. The honor of standing so high in the opinions of classmates and teachers is a great one and the students know that although the organization has been inactive this year the officers have continuedxto be worthy of the honor which is theirs.

You sign up as a junior .1 ,sured that your witty remarks and novel ideas will malce you the shining light of the editorial stafifg your winning personality and high pressure technique will make you the financial genius of the business staff. Then you find yourself on the staff. You sit at a long table confronted with the elephantine task of putting words on paper. You try to write senior personals and find that your witty remarks are labeled corny by your literary col- leagues. Your novel ideas, you learn, were used in The Spy of 1908 or 1922! Or you go bravely forth to sell ads, and you stand shakily on the curb taking deep breaths before facing one of our local tycoons and trying to impress upon him the great advantage to his company of a page in the high school annual.

Nt-H You listen bewildered as the talk turns to proportions-you try to help lay out a feature page and end with a headache and a page queerly gone askew. You watch the art editors and marvel at their skill. Timidly you ask if there's a little typing you might do. Then suddenly you're talking the lingo, too. You write feverishly, eye on the calendar, anything to get done before the fast approaching deadline! The advertising section goes to press-the covers arrive-bills pour in to the harrassed business manager's con- fusion. The wind-up now-those last pic- tures to take, and then the mumps epidemic sweeps the school and holds up everything. Finally the day arrives when the last copy is on its way to the engrav- ers-the last literary masterpiece is typed. It's finished! But rest assured you'll be writing senior personals, balancing the budget, selling ads, selling Spys, measur- ing, pasting, counting words in night- mares for countless months. And the stench of rubber cement will be with you always when you think of The Spy. .l.

In The Lantern, Galion High School has a paper of decided merit which gives ll vivid picture of the life of the school and its students. The paper is published entirely by juniors who do this journal- istic worlc in addition to their worlc in the regular American literature course. Of course there isn't time for this during the regular school day so the members of the Lantern staff cheerfully give of their precious after-school time so that the paper may come out on time. Under the capable direction of Mrs. Earl Roth, these members of the high school fourth estate write copy, argue over the effectiveness of headline wordings, dis- cuss the editorial policy of the paper, sell advertising, and plan photographic fea- tures. Under their own power the members of the staff snoop through the halls, eaves- drop on intimate conversations, watch with ferret eyes all the newest develop- ments in the romance department, and faithfully record all the glib gab anyone tells them. Of course all this chit-chat of the school is carefully sifted and only the worst of it is allowed to sneak into the columns of the high school journal. These articles of humor, satire, and school gossip will probably be the most enjoyable of all during the years after tomorrow when the yellowed pages of the Lantern will be our most treasured link with a school career that is a de- lightful memory. All in all it's been a splendid year, and the students appreciate the labor of the Lantern staff which has its climax in that day when seventh period classes end five lflinutes early and we t1'OOP to hOfne'fO0fn where the papers are distributed. That day the students walk more slowly, their noses buried in the pages of the paper, paying little heed to red trafiic lights, chuckling over the lively gossip. Yes in- deed, the Lantern is a vitally necessary refiection of the spirit and interest of our school. 3.4. ' gn. sim :sw H' K .ms ,X ,, .it I as--, 1.

The Tiger nine is well fortified with material, having back practically the same infield as last year with I-Ieslcett at third, Tuscan at short, Rogers, a junior legion star, at second, and McGuire at first.

Art Thoman, president of the class, got us off to a good start and then deserted us for the Navy. Jim Bates stepped into the presidential shoes for the remaider of the year and did a splendid job with the aid of Max Craner and Farina. The class of 1946 has played an import- ant part in all Galion High School affairs, sports, organizations, dramatic and musi- cal activities, and has of course excelled in keeping the scholastic attainment of the school at an unprecedented level. It seem strange now that after twelve years our school days are over. The event we have eagerly anticipated for years--grad- uation-is at hand and oddly enough it gives us a queer feeling to think of leaving these rooms where so often we have chafed at the confinement. Soon the class of 1946 will be scattered far and wide and our life together as toilers in the pursuit of education will be but a memory. We leave behind a few initials carved on the desks against the rules of the Student Guidance Bulletin, a few trophies in the case in the main corridor, a few names scrawled on the scenery in the auditorium. We take with us a host of memories of cheers and laughter, brilliant classroom sallies, the solemnity of a com- mencement procession, and a Spy filled with pictures of friends to keep always as a link with these happy years now ended.

This business of class presidents leaving for the Navy seems to be contagious. Gehrisch deserted his class and joined the fleet at the mid-term. Seeds has done a mighty good job in his place, ably assisted by Barbara Shaffer and Ness. By their loyalty in supporting every school activity, by their enthusiasm dis- played on every occasion, by their incess- ant delight in doing traditional things differently, they have proved that they are well qualified to become, as Seniors, the leaders of the student body. We ex- pect great things of this bunchg cham- pionships to gloat over, social affairs to dazzle the eye, records to turn other classes green with envy. These Juniors have the pep and the ability to do great things. They're a jolly crowd and we like 'em lots. 5- ii l M 9 x :W i if QQ Little Ish spies on the Iuniors.

ADMIN!! 7 R14 7l0N The smooth funtioning of a school system depends largely upon the mem- bers of the Administrative force who decide policy, make appointments, authorize purchases, and keep the edu- cational machine well oiled. Students Seldofn See the IHCl'l1bCI'S of the board of education, yet are conscious that there are steady hands on the reins. To students the central ofhce is a place where they go rarely but when they do they have assurance that they will be courteously received and their wants care- fully noted. Miss Monroe and Miss Hocker, more often simply Issy', and Carol, are always smiling sympatheticly when bombarded by questions or asked for aid. In the inner sanctum, behind his executive's desk of shiny oak, Mr. Pov- enmire guides the destinies of the many pupils of the Galion schools and their teachers. He is never too busy for a con- ference and a bit of sympathetic advice. Occasionally he appears as an assembly speaker and student audiences have learned to respect his earnestness in his work and his balanced views on current problems. Day by day the principalas office is 21 E. R. Pickering Principal bedlam. Students and teachers dash in and out, questioning, complaining, de- manding. Usually the little room is so jammed that the waiting line extends into the hall. This suite of rooms is the hub of Galion High School. Teachers' mail boxes are hereg so are the tele- phones, which may be used for business only! Announcements are made from the little room off left. Always smilingly pleasant, Mrs. Prim, the human encyclopedia of the school, knows students and their problems and their tricks as intimately as any one in the system. She is the perfect mixture of charm, humor and efficiency. - Mr. Pickering directs the affairs of the high school from the little room with the northern exposure and the tropical tem- perature. Through years of listening to students, and teachers' grievances, hand- ling the hundreds of infractions of rules which unfortunately come to his atten- tion, ancl giving advice to puzzled people seeking help, Mr. Pickering has kept his enthusiasm for school work and his good nature. In hours off duty he still plays a wicked game of basketball and is a ping-pong opponent to reckon with. Mrs. Prim Miss Nlonroc Mins Hufkvr if 5 LUCY V. AILHR R. N.. Graduate Lakeside Hospital M.

Blueprint Reading Nl6fl7 Crisp autumn weather-a harvest moon low in the sky-a tumultuous roar from frenzied thousands-a glare of light in the Heise Parlc region of Galion. A football game is the center of attention. Brisk signals-the thud of bodies clash- ing, of toe meeting pigslcin-another cheer. Snow covers the campus. Light streams from the windows of the gym. Swing music Hoats faintly on the wintry air. A party is in progress. Halls filled with people. A line at the box office. Pretty girl ushers Hit up and down the auditorium aisles. A play is in progress-or perhaps a concert. Mobs stream into the junior high school. They wait impatiently in the ticket line. They charge into the gym and scramble for choice seats on the bleachers. A mighty cheer as a splendid Galion team comes onto the Floor. A basketball game is our dish tonight. Games, parties, night meetings of the Math Club, the G. R. or Blue Tri, the Hi-Y, the F. H. A. Typewriters click as the Spy staff works late. Laughter from the stage where a play is in rehearsal. Time to go home now, everybody. All out of the building. Are you sure that we've left no lights burning? This is Galion High School by night. Ish states in his report that he finds little difference between our tribe and his in respect to night life. Everybody wants fun, laughter, lights and music. All are reluctant to return to the tepee for a rest period. In these activities students learn to lcnow one another far beyond the limita- tions of classroom acquaintance. When you laugh together, dance together, cheer a team together, you get a feeling of kin- ship nothing else can give. Friendships here made are held for life. Good times now become the golden memories of the future. These jolly nights of pleasure convince us that school means far more than assignments, examinations, research pa- pers, recitations-it means learning to know people, planning a party, following a committee chairman, taking responsi- bility for a program, leading a team. It's not only school, it's life-this complicated pattern we find so interesting, so vivid. ...ff .5 Wg ? Little Ish waits until nightlall to raise some whoopee Q as ,g, Q far lgigglkfiww i .i V .. . K spa' ' la! Q ' .M JACK BAER-senior This fullback accomplished a lot on the G. H. S. gridiron. Anybody who followed,,,Tiger athletics knows that jack was not a big boy as fullbacks traditionally are. Jack was one of our leading ground gainers in the past season. JOHN VOSSERS-Senior John was taken from his home position and moved to a spot where his talents could best be used. One of the best centers in the N. O. League a year ago, John was converted into a much needed end. His edu- cated toe brought the tigermen out of many a tough spot. GEORGE STONER-Senior Always kidded about being slow, Stoner really changes once on a football field. George played a lot of tackle this year and can give and take plenty. He is a good blocker and loves to rough it up also. JOE MCMANES-Junior Small but mighty. Yes, Mac was the man who was called upon when our redheaded first stringer wasn't in there. Many a back found out about his vicious tackling when Sheff took out his wrath on the squad in some of his pet tackling drills. . DICK LOGAN-Senior Dick was one of those good guards that is so necessary to a successful team. When paired with Thoman on defense we had an unbeat- able guard combination. But this redhead was a great blocker on offense too. DICK EICHLER-Sophomore Ike proved to be one of the hardest work- ing linemen on the squad. At the first of the season he was a third string end but through his persistent hard work coupled with the breaks of the game won a starting varsity berth. HAROLD RAMSEY-Sophomore Chunk started the first game of the season as a quarterback. However, because of his somewhat impaired eyesight he was moved to a halfback position. Toward the end of the sea- son he showed an exceptional throwing arm and a., nice kicking toe. WILLIAM MONROE-Senior Willie was one of those four good Senior tackles that we had this year. GHS followers will not soon forget those smashing tackles and devastating blocks that he executed so efficient- ly for Galion High last fall. HARVEY COULTER-Senior Speed is a new name for old Harv after that Ashland game last fall. Fans won't forget how he took out after an Ashland player who intercepted a pass, and caught him from be- hind. He played a great game of ball and -de- serves a lot of credit. A DON PUGI-I-Senior ' i Although somewhat hindered by an ailing knee, Don played a great game of football last fall. Being Captain, he led his team through a good season. He's not very big but runs low and hits hard. Teamed with Joe, he gave us a very good defense. ' 4 . l t 6,4 1 I ' b ': 5 This lootball stuff is heap : better than going on war- path, says Ish. Me-l like cleats better than tomahawksf' fm 'F E DICK BRITT-Sophomore Brittish is only a sophomore but proved to have plenty of punch. He worked hard and by his aggressiveness won a starting guard posi- tion. He did his share of dishing it out, and proved able to take a good bit too. We expect a lot in the future, Dick, so keep in there working hard next fall. BILL DORIAN-Senior Good natured Bill may not have had as much actual playing time as some of the other senior members of the squad but the coach and every ball player will tell you that he had one of the best attitudes of any of the athletes. Fans will remember how Bill carried the mail that night over at Bucyrus. ART THOMAN-Senior -and Thoman knifes into opponents backfield for another sensational tackle. This was the remark spoken so often by spectators and quoted quite frequently by the press. Art was truly an outstanding defensive player. He's in,the Navy now. ANGELO FARINA-Senior Calm to most people, Angelo is no Angel when he dons a football uniform and takes the field with 'dem Tigers. As the boys on the team found out in many a game, hc never quits when the team's behind. LYNN HESKETT-Junior Being built long and lean, Lynn was natur- ally assigned to one of the ends. Although he was bothered somewhat with a recurring back injury, Hesket played a lot of fine end in the past season. Having another year yet, Lynn should blossom out into a great wingman. JOSEPH MCGUIRE-Senior Big, hard-hitting Joe, moved over from an end position, called the signals in quarterback slot this year, and executed his duties very well. I-fis main assignments were passing and off- tackle plays. Being able to get up in the air enabled Joe to knock down many passes while on defense. He can pass, kick, run, and do just about anything with a football. ' LEO TUSCAN--Sopho more Little Lip, as he is affectionally known by his fellow athletes, showed great possibilities as he won his first varsity football letter as only a sophomore. F007Bv4lZ RJESUME The Tigers started the season with a bit of bad luck. The boys seemed to be ready too early in the season as they out- scrimmaged Nlansfield High a week be- fore opening game. Tiffin Calvert opened here and taking full advantage of the breaks handed Galion ai 13-0 setback. Recovering from the loss with a bobbled line-up the orange-clad warriors trounced Crestline 34-0. They moved to Norwalk next for their first road trip. Rain slowed down the field as the boys, fighting val- iantly. were tripped 6-0. Although very close to 6 points several times during the Shelby game it seemed as though the goal was just too far away. The Tigers over- powered and out-played the Whippets in every department but the score remained deadlocked 0-0 until the final gun. Wil- lard here the following Friday proved a tough opponent although the Galionites trounced them well 23-7. A Marion St. Maryls team, appearing for the first time on the G. H. S. grid calendar, brought a fighting, hard-hitting team here Qct. 18. The Orangemen set them down in fine fashion 13-0. Rated as one of the best teams in the state, Upper Sandusky in- vaded the home gridiron to find a hard- fought, scrappy battle awaiting them. Previously having a utrackn record of 55 points per game Upper had a hard time beating a determined hard hitting Galion ball club 20-0. Their flashy backs were slowed down considerably as we gave them a very reputable battle. Moving to Bucyrus, Galion scampered to an easy Z-'Z-0 victory. The gridders from the county seat gave very little competition to our rampaging ball toters. Finishing the schedule at Ashland, the Tigers played a team which had been up against plenty tough competition. Our boys had just about every bad break in the books thrown at them that night. Within inches of scoring several times, it just wasnit to be had, as they dropped the Orangemen G-0. Row I Mliiiiirv liwr foultcr Pugl lhoman. Britt. Parma. Logan. Vosset Row 1 -Hr-skett. Eichlcr.

Coach Sheffer. i.'5.JA CH SHEFFER Coming to Galion in 1941 from Perrysburg, Ohio, Sheff started his athletic duties at Galion as assistant football coach and Jr. Varsity basketball coach. The following year he was appointed head basketball coach and Jr. High football coach. Many of the graduating members of this year's team will remember when they started their football career under Mr. Sheffer in their Freshman year. Then in 1944 Sheff was given the job as head coach in both football and basketball and also in baseball. During the following years Galion has enjoyed some of its finest years on the gridiron as well as on the hardwood. Those boys who played on Coach's cage teams will long remember the ever open front door at his house and those freezers of ice cream on a Sunday afternoon. COACH HIXON B-b-b-but Bob, we can't do that! This was a typical expression heard by our head coach over the telephone on a Thursday night before a Friday contest. Hix', was always ready with a suggestion at an opportune moment which was a constant help to Mr. Sheffer. Coming from Parkersburg, West Virginia, and a high school of over 3,000 students, Mr. Hixon brought a lor of new and valuable ideas to the Galion athletic scene. At present, while not engaged in athletic duties, he instructs the shop students at the Junior High. MR. DEPPEN Mr. Deppen is one of the most important men in the coaching system. With his job as Junior High football and basketball mentor goes the responsibility of starting the younger boys on the fundamentals of games. The Galion High School administration firmly believes in having a sound athletic program for the younger boys who must, in the near future, fill the shoes of the boys now representing Galion on the fields of play. Notable on the Jr. High athletic calendar of the past year was the excellent basketball team which turned in a record of 10 wins against a single loss. Evidence of what can be expected in future years in varsity play. MR. BROWN What say, Sergeant? Many of the Galion thin-clads have heard this remark in reply to almost any of their inquiries. Major Brown has returned to the Galion coach- ing staff after a five year leave of absence to serve in Uncle Sam's tank forces. Since his return he has been instrumental in the rejuvination of Galion track program. This year for the first time in many springs G. H. S. will be represented on the cinder paths. Any - warm day if you visit the park you can hear his thunderous Army voice booming across the oval. l l 1 0ar Cheerleaders Vivacious and energetic, our four cheerleaders keep the mob yelling for our fightin' Tigers. At student rallies and at games you constantly hear their urgent pleas, Come on, kids! Let's yellly' Adair Durtschi and Nancy Myers have been at the task of drawing cheers for three years. Irene Kottyan and Carol Goodman were chosen at the fall try-outs as possessors of great potential ability in the noise inciting art. The prediction proved true. After a period of training under the tutelage of the senior leaders, these girls made their debut and were praised as being right on the ball. Good work, Adair and Nancy. Keep the noise coming, Carol and Irene. It's been a great year and personally we liked the cartwheelsl BOB PRICE'-Sophomore Being speedy and light on his feet enabled Price to be one of GZlliOI1,S best defensive men. Bob always has lots ol iight and vigor as he showed in most of the games. His underhand layup shots should be a big scoring aid in future years. GERALD THATCHERY -Sophomore Thats four in a row., was heard at the tournament games. Thatch could hit from the middle of the Hoor as though he were right under the basket, He didn't get started early in the season or you can be sure he would have been in there more often. Here's hoping you clon't lose that eye, Thatch, BOB NEFF4Senior Captain Neff led his team through one of the best seasons Galion has had since '38. He is a good offensive man and ai ballhawk on de- tense. Nipper's foul shooting eye gave GHS many needed points. JOHN VOSSHRS- Senior John, although he sometimes disagreed with the referees decisions. was generally a cool, level headed ball player, John moved from guard to forward and back again, whatever the situation called for. John really caught fire in tournament play and scorched the hoops for many precious goals. JOSEPH McGUlREvSei1ior Joe always played a cool, cautious game. He was very active under the baskets and was one of our best defensive men, blocking many sure shots. He worked in the pivot spot and could hit on over-the-head shots from either left or right. Hooping them in from the middle of the Floor was another of Joe's talents. LYNN HESKETT-Junior Lynn, being one of our neatest all-round ball players, is only a Junior and has another season ahead of him. One of his worst habits was fouling out of the game when it was still young. Although Lynn didn't do much scoring this year he has a good eye and can hit on one-handed shots from the foul circle. GEORGE TREISCH-Junior 6 ft. 4 inches-yes, that's big George. He worked in under the basket when Joe was out and gave a good exhibition of ball handling. He can hit on pivot shots, which should be a big asset next year, as he is only a Junior. Good natured and carefree, he was the pride of the team this year. Row l---Powers. Mgr..

Mgr. 3145165731411 Although Coach Shelter was somewhat skeptical about the ability of the boys who reported for practice at the begin- ning of the 1945-46 basketball season, this group turned in the best record of any Galion cage team since 1938. Al- though admittedly laclcing in an abun- dence of first class round ball material, the Tigers came through with twelve wins against seven losses. possessing that intangible something that holds a team together, they gained this record mainly through their never ending fight and determination. The abil- ity to practically live together and stick up for each other was an unusual quality that this ball club possessed. Although ending up in the third posi- tion in the Northern Ohio league stand- ings, this year's Tiger Quintet enjoyed traveling farther in the tournament than any of their league opponents. Although riddled by the mumps at tourney time, they managed to come through with wins over St. Maryls, Kenton, a highly touted aggregation, and Findlay, a perennial tourney favorite. However, they met their downfall when they toolc the floor against Wapakoiieta in the district finals. On the night of April llth the team was banqueted by the P. T.

Behind their high-stepping drum major and their vivacious majorettes, the band swings along with martial stride- a gorgeous flash of orange and blue Linder the high powered lights of the Heise gridiron. A hushed moment and the strains of the National Anthem bring the crowd to their feet as Old Glory is raised. Between the halves the hand gives a demonstration of intricate marching and complex figures. We especially remember that Halloween exhibition where the hand became a giant pumpkin face with blink- ing lights producing an eerie effect. This is Galion's marching hand of seventy-eight strong. A hushed audience packs the auditor- ium, Mr. Liddell mounts the podium. Strains of melody pour forth-the con- cert band begins a program. During the successful year now ended. the hand has more than ever added to the color of school life. In addition to appearances at games and concerts, the band has taken part in band festivals and has served the community by playing for a number of affairs and marching in numerous civic parades. In the band,s repertoire are some numbers we especially like-Oklahoma. Snowwhite and the Seven Dwarfs, and Showboat. 0RCfif5'7R!l The orchestra has had a busy year appearing on concert programs at home and abroad. The exchange programs with Crestline and Bucyrus were interesting experiences for our enthusiastic musi- cians. In addition to their home concert, which proved that weeks of practice under capable direction will produce ex- cellent results, they were guest perform- ers for the P. T. A. Founders, Day cele- bration and for the district P. T. A. con- vention held in our auditorium March 8. The local music makers joined musi- cians from a number of other schools for two festivals, one at Norwalk, April 12, and one at Fremont, April 27. These opportunities of meeting and listening to other school orchestras is both valuable and enjoyable. Their final appearance of the year will be Commencement night when theyill play as we march down the aisle for the last time. Row I---Schultz. Bet-gle. Decker. Englehart. Kihler. Nlurplly. Poister.

In their new robes of maroon with stoles of white they are an impress- ive sight. The choir is a mixed group and although they have done splendid work, Mr. Liddellis constant plea has been for more men. Schedule difficulties have proved an obstacle this year but already a campaign has been started to get more of the boys of the school to plan to be a part of this singing group next year. The choir appeared at the P. T. A, dis- trict meet and gave a fine home concert ed numbers. The Girls? Chorus went to the music festival at Fremont and made a success- ful appearance there. Singing numbers both of sacred and secular nature, the girls showed decided enthusiasm in their worlc and by their tone quality and sym- pathetic interpretation show an under- standing of their music. They have been chosen for special musical numbers at the Baccalaureate service. Both choir and chorus groups will assist in the observance of National Mu- sic Week, which will bring to the school several programs emphasizing the values of truly fine music.

A number of splendid musicians have been given the opportu- nity of appearing on local programs and competing for honors at district meets. Mr. Liddell has also trained several small ensemble groups which have worked to- gether until their playing has reached a very high standard. During the past sev- eral years a number of these young people have won the coveted rating of superior in state competitions. This season the largest number of soloists Galion High has ever sent to the district auditions will go to Oberlin for one of the major musical events. Ted Rehl is piano and oboe soloistg David Schultz is the violin soloistg Carol Pickering is the clarinetistg Morris lVlartin of the junior high school plays cornet: joanne Bonsteel is the soloist on trolli- bone, and Eileen Barrett also of the ninth grade group is the saxaphone entrant.

That, at any rate, is the theme of the play which the juniors presented on the night of November 15. The play with that arresting title, EVER SINCE EVE, is a comedy in three acts by Flor- ence Ryerson and Colin Clements, and tells the humorous story of a group of high school students and their difficulties in editing a school paper. When the boys who manage the paper get measles and the girls take over, the plot really thickens. The capable cast of juniors present- ed the play in excellent style, and the play was well staged and beautifully costumed. Joan Dougherty gave organ selec- tions between the acts. The play was directed by Miss Miriam Sayre, and the committee chairman who worked with her on production details were: Prompters, Martha Cook, Mary Davis Stage and Lights - George Seeds Furnishings - - Carol Pickering Box Office - - James Gehrisch Tickets - - Herbert Helfrich Malce-up - - Joyce Durtschi Publicity ---- John Gill Properties, Costumes - Barbara Poland Program - - - Ann Thoman - Joan Anlccr Marvin Derfler - John Monroe - James Seevers - Pat Schmitt Carol Lou Klingel - Patricia Finney Wilbert Englehart David Schultz Ann Deaton - - - - - - Charles Karnes Football Players and Students - - John Trautman, Dick Ginder, Bruce Rogers, Don Rogers.

D057 With a cast of nearly fifty characters, the Senior play CHALK DUST, by Har- old Clark and Maxwell Nurnberg, turned the spotlight on a large metropolitan high school and exposed the drama, comedy, and heartbreaks of school life. The play showed the best and the worst in students, teachers and educational procedures in general. It satirized the red tape, the machine-like routine, the stereotyped wor- ship of a system. It upheld and lauded the high ideals of those in the teaching profession who believe in the freedom of students to express their own opinions, follow their own inclinations, and become individuals in their own right. The play was in three acts and fourteen scenes and presented difficulties in staging and lighting which gave the seniors ade- quate experience in handling a really diffi- cult stage presentation. The class had expressed its desire to give a play entirely different from the usual class production and the play committee consisting of Juanita Davis, Joe McGuire, Dick Klock- ner, Marian Crissinger and Alice Miller really found the answer to that wish in CHALK DUST. There were u p r o a r io u s classroom scenes, realistic chats among teachers, thrilling moments of high drama, and a variety of characters such as is seldom seen in a high school offering. The play was given under the direction of Miss Miriam Sayre and was presented the night of April 30.

JUNIUR-.S'L'Nl0R RECIFPTIUN Headlining the year's social activities, the Junior-Senior Prom takes the spot- light for the month of May. Co-eds think for months of what they will wear to outdazzle competition. Sturdy lads medi- tate for months on the weighty subject of whom they shall ask. Wise you are if you get a date in October for the big event-although, of course, there's a better than even chance that you'll be speaking only icily by the time May blos- soms blossom. If youire just naturally in- dependent or bashful, you needn't go with a date at all. There's always a big stag line-whoops, we mean wolf line. We must talk a modern language. For the Juniors who are hosts at the affair, there is much more to think about than dates and dresses. With their spon- sor, Miss Josephine Tracht, they work and worry months in advance. When the worry gets a bit heavy, Miss Rose Seifert, assistant sponsor, lends her helping hand. Decorations, orchestra, favors, programs, food, waiters, chaperones, invitations- will we ever be ready! Somehow the night arrives and all is ready, down to the last little carrot and radish on ice. A swirl of fluffy frocks, low sobbing tones from the saxaphones, a hoot of laughter from the crowd around the punch bowl. The Prom is at its height. The Gallon Country Club was the setting for the Prom of '45. Charlotte, Don, Alice and johnny are caught in a smiling mood. The gentlemen in the classy white coats are the sophomore waiters-Ness, Mc- Manes, Heskett, Ventrone, McCormick, Ramsey, Gehrisch and Treisch. Efficient -they invented the word. The concocted punch, cut cakes, served relishes with the suavity of professionals, and gave a defi- nite touch of the Waldorf to the party. There always has to be a dance scene from the prom. Stoner and Betty Ten- nant are in the foreground-Betty looks up so happily at her partner. In another picture they join Marian and Chuck for a bit of a chat. Some guests prefer card playing to dancing. Here we see such games in pro- gress. Corrine Durnwald and Forence Metzger watch a bit of exciting play. Another May-another Prom. A snatch of song to hum for a few days, a dance program to put into a scrap book, a few flowers from a corsage to press between the pages of a volume soon forgotten. Always, too, the conviction- Our Prom was the best of all Promsf, P14571 0N.S' 01 '46 This page is planned to amuse you twenty years from now. Then with your own teen ager looking over your shoulder at the Spy of T46 and exclaiming, Really, Nlom and Dad, did you really dress that way? you can look at the pictures with a nostalgic tightening of the throat and launch out into an enthusiastic upholding of the fashions of the Ugood ole days. Get any group together and let them look over the annuals of bygone years and hear their squealing at the outlandish styles. This page is for others to squeal over some time midway in that atomic age that's upon us. How do the lads and lassies of T46 wear their hair? Well, here are a few to show you. Pat Rhoades, Pat Thompson and Adair Durtschi model the feminine trends while Yochem, Shifiey and Povenmire make their debut as models showing the masculine vogue. Wliat do we wear for working? This group snapped while decorating for the G. R. Sweetheart party plainly gives the answers. Shirts, slacks and sweaters, and the sloppier the better. Guess whose feet? They show the types of footwear seen day by day going eager- ly to school. Saddles, moccasins, harau- ches, and boots that suggest the para- troopers. Seldom cleaned, seldom brush- ed, never polished. For school-anything goes. Slacks. jeans, dresses, suits, sweaters, overalls- a fad lasts a month and another takes its place. A typical campus shot shows a group of students in approved attire. Joan Boyer, Alice Ritzhaupt, Dorian fplaying with the yo-yoj and john Beecher make up the party. Not a picture from an old, old album, but a quartet of co-eds all dressed for a Sweetheart party. Carol Klingel, Barbara Benbow, Margery Herr and lVlarilyn Glenn give proof that the formal styles of I946 are patterned after those of long, long ago. The last picture was our photograph- er's brainchild. About how much jewelry can you collect from the average class? Will anybody in twenty years believe that we carry around such a quantity of junk? The speech class aided in the experiment, and this conglomeration is the result. Rings, pins, watches, bracelets, beads, compacts, gold footballs, chains, hair or- naments-itis the gypsy in us! ...,.....,,,-. . -- ki, 'I MJ Si ..

Dances after basketball games. Class parties and club parties. Mother and daughter affairs. Father and son dinners. Banquets to honf or the football team, the basketball team, the band. Juke-box music and real or- chestra music. Full course dinners and lunches served on paper plates. Or per- haps just a bottle of coke. There are plenty of parties to relieve the routine of school life and to practice that contortionist's art called jitterbug- ging. The approved formula is a sure enough orchestra, decorations, soft lights, and a thrilling date. However, some of our most enjoyable social events have dis- regarded that formula in every particular. Formal dresses or just school togs. It doesn't matter much. Get the gang to- gether and there'll be fun. It 'is impossible to give a pictorial ac- count of all of the pleasant affairs of the past year, but here are a few that little Ish sneaked in on and found unusually interesting. Ar the Christmas dance given by the Spy staff, old Santa made his appearance. fThanks, Tiny.j He distributes gifts to good little boys and girls and here he gives a present to Vossers. Yeah-did we say GOOD-but Santa doesnit get around very much. Another shot taken at the same party shows Master of Cere- monies Coulter greeting the fat fellow. from the North. The Blue Triangle girls entertained their mothers at a delightful party which was given in the school library. Long candle-lit tables were beautifully decorat- ed in the Blu Tri colors and the mamas enjoyed a splendid program and a late lunch. Nothing is more enjoyable to students than the regular after-game dances. After gridiron battles the shindigs are held in our own gymnasium, but after basketball f games we frolic in the junior high barn. You can dance if you like, but there are many who just prefer to sit on the side- lines and talk over the game as they drink coke and munch potato chips. Here are some 'typical scenes at such an affair. Seeds and Beverly Login are sitting out a few on the blezffj 's and seem to be engrossed inf-impo t con- versation. Notice the other couples there- abouts. Beecher buys a chocolate bar from Margie Herr, and you can chalk up an- other nickel profit for the G. R. .The rubber-stamping process is our handy method of keeping a check of those who pay admission. You pay your dime and one of the pretty girls at the desk stamps the back of your hand with Property of the Galion Board of Edu- cation and you are free to enjoy the evening inside. Pay up, Monroe-you're next. Another engrossed couple, Lois Berge andiiTuscan, watch the dancers with criti- cal eyes. Although Leo is one of the school's most accomplished gentlemen of the ballroom, he prefers to sit them out many times. The G. R. Christmas party is always a gala event. Here they gather around the Yuletide tree to sing carols and distribute that pile of gifts. For taking the picture we got some of the lunch which is being p r e p a r e d by an energetic committee shown just below. The seniors gave a novel Dutch Dance in March and the gym took on the ap- pearance of an old Dutch garden for that memorable evening. There was a windmill, of course, and a wishing well, and tulips blooming profusely. Programs were in the form of wooden shoes. The King and Queen of the party ,Joan Boyer and Beecher, were crowned with quaint Dutch caps and given wooden shoes to wear. DAY 15' DONf Day is clone. The lights of Galion are going out one by one. Somewhere nearly four hundred students are winding up another day. What do they do in those wee small hours? Here we check on a few. Before hundreds of doors good-nights are being said-the end ol a perfect date. The time varies depending upon the ages of the participants. If you're a cradle snatcher such as jim Ness you bid your little junior high girl such as Beverly Dickerson a fond bye-bye at a fairly re- spectable hour. If you're a soph-why, you're home, of course, idling in bed pretending to study as Beverly Logan so pertly pretends.

IJ T5 stance-is open and above board. He makes no pretense of studying. He fills a tray with lunch and enjoys a sandwich as he improves his mind with a comic book. Yeah-12:17 and all is well. Get a little shut-eye, Joe, and try to make it on time in the morning. Serving as examples to their younger friends, the three senior boys show the spirit of the real academic mind. Time marches toward dawn but these inspired scholars keep the torch of knowledge brightly burning. Late night cramming is just routine pleasure for Spiggle, Lo- gan and Yochem. Faculty members have been having pleasant dreams for hours-dreams of tricky questions to ask clespairing pupils. Spy staff members have fallen into a sleep of sheer exhaustion-the first in months. Little Ish, his report finished, puts his feet up on the editoris desk and says in the language of the SSSSSS tribe 'kGood night, gang- gee, hasn't it all been fun? ,,,.-,gs , .4 It MAAL 1, , , A ' .-W., V, x.u, I P, .
