In testimony we present as witnesses: ,Q QA-ga.-5 Jams ELA!! 3392215.51 -by Lois Stimmel What a time I have had the last few days way out here in sunny California working as secretary to the president of the American Radiator and Standard Sanitary Manufacturing Co., Mr. Cuganot. Work- ing as secretary really 1sn't as simple as I thought it would be. After renewing acquaintances with my boss he certainly put me to work. I am also just a little too heavy for his knee. This morning Mr. Cuganot gave me a list of things to do such as calling his lawyer and getting more data on job applicants. After putting a call through for his lawyer I was surprised to hear the un- mistakeable voice of Kenneth George, but I suppose I shouldn't have been because of the way he was always arguing with the teachers at school. He really should be experienced. Just as I was about to leave my office the telephone rang and it was none other than my pal Dorothy Webb whom I knew was interested in secretarial work and after hearing of a secretary needed at the Build- ing and Loan Tower I wrote to her and invited her to room with me. She had arrived the evening before. She called to tell me that they had accepted her and had put her to work immediately, but she d1dn't know how she could concentrate on her work with such a handsome employ ere Since Mr. Cuganot was leaving town on business he excused me for the rest of the day. Not having lived in the city long I decided to look it over. While walking down the street, with nothing special in mind, I entered a large building. Going down the hall I noticed one of the doors was labeled LONELY HEARTS BUREAU under management of Ron Ginter and Glen Hennings. I wondered at this, but found out later it was due to the fact of their previous love affair with June and Donna which proved to be great disappointments. There intentions now were to help prevent such disappointments to others. My own love life, complicated as it was, forced my steps toward advice. Seated in the room talking to the great advisors was Bill Phillips. It seems that Carol Moor and he were having marital trouble over the proceeds of the Phillips Gulf Gas Station, which was making them a name to be reckoned with on Wall Street. After relating my masculine troubles with them, their advice was for me to get in with the new fads and fashions such as cutting my hair with bangs and also wearing longer dresses, so I set out for the nearest beauty salon. There I found my old classmate La Vonna George giving a facial. After she had cut my hair and we had had a long chat I started for the nearest fashion shop. Here Doris Cekander who was a famous dress designer refashioned my clothes and made me look like a new person. kfter making myself presentable I decided to visit Carnegie Hall to my surprise and delight Elda Cohrs was giving a matinee concert. She had become very famous and pictures of her have graced the pages of many a magazine. CLASS PROPHESY fC0nt.l Tearing myself away, I dashed out to find a taxi. As I scrambled into the taxi, I found my driver to be none other than Paul Wensink. As we were driving along a beautiful palm lined drive, the motor star- ted to sputter. Luckily we were near a garage. It was the most modern garage I had ever seen. We were very glad to see Cloyce Wells to be the proud owner. The job was finished in record time and I was on my way once again. Not knowing any place in particular to go myself, my driver told me about the AFRICAN NITE CLUB. We drove there, and upon entering, I found it to be the swankiest club I had ever seen, and it was operated by none other than my old friend, Dale Kern. After getting settled at a table, I was astonished to find Irvin Kline to be the star comedian. He had gotten his start by cracking corny jokes at Jackson High and is now one of the best in the business. After the show I unexpectedly saw Jim Drummer and in the next half hour that we spent talking, I found him to be the head of a university and running it very efficiently. He had studied to be a teacher, and due to his ability he was soon promoted. In the interview with Jim I learned that Donna Bollenbacher was now a housewife for Don and lived on Second Street, so I decided to pay her a visit. I found her and her home both looking like a million dol- lars with her husband and seven sweet little children. I was glad to see that her dream had come true. Meeting so many of my old class mates and having had such an ex- citing day had tired me, so I decided to rush home and tell Dorothy of my experience. ausaeaaees 9.25.22 5152252 lb started our first year in school with 31 members in our class: These were: Harold Decker, Deloris Courtney, Elmer Heffinger, Jimmie Martin, Paul Wensink, Tommy Perkins, Vonnie George, Dorothy Kaughman, Leoma Kirkendall, Elda Cohrs, Marilyn J. Hunter, Marilyn Trutt, Jack Milliron, Mary Jane Saucer, Norman Herringshaw, Grace Harrington, Helen Snyder, Jim Thomas, Glen Hennings, Kenneth George, Lavonna R. George, Donna Durliat, Lois A. Stimmel, Donna J. Bollenbacher, Irvin Kline, Doris Cekander, Ronald Ginter, Cloyce Wells, Patty A. Meyers, Treva Freeman, and Raymond Donaldson. Miss Herma Buhler greeted us on our first day at school and many of us were a little afraid, but soon got over it. The first to leave us was Treva Freeman who was killed in an auto- mobile accident. In the course of the next few years we gained a few members. These were: Howard Davis, Dorothy Webb, Phyliss Bowser, Joan Mitchell, Richard England, Lawrence Kirkendall, Jacqueline Coolidge, Teddy Bauman, Gerald Spence, and Patsy Ann Leaders. We also lost some of our number. The teachers we had during the first six years were Miss Buhler, Miss Catherine Alban, Miss Kathryn Sockman, Miss Lois Mercer, and Miss Lois Van Dorn, in this order. CLASS HISTORY fC0nt.J Seventh Grade After the lower grades were through, we were glad to get on to the Junior High. Our sponsor for the Seventh Grade was Kate Leathers. In this grade we acquired 4 new members who were: James Drummer, Mildred Payne, Dale Kern, and Glen Hennings. Eighth Grade This year we again chose Kate Leathers to be our class sponsor. Our class was strengthened with new members, who were Robert Williams and Robert Newcomer. The class had a few parties so we d1dn't fair too badly. FI'6Shm9R Ah! We have finally made high school after eight gruelling years in the lower grades and feel pretty cocky now. Robert Williams, Rob- ert Newcomer, Grace Harrington, and Mildred Payne left our class in the latter part of the year. This year we chose Miss Reba Wagner our class sponsor. Nothing much happened this year and we d1dn't get to have our Initiation or Scrap Day as is usually done, although we did have a school party and a few of us skipped out when we were supposed to do the dishes. Sophomores This year we chose Mr. J. P. Merrill as our class sponsor and had a lot of fun with him. We were very happy to have ordered our rings so that they would be here the next year. Juniors When we came back to school, Harold Decker did not answer to the role call, but Bill Phillips, a new member from Cleveland, took his place. Our most exciting events were receiving our r1ngs,Kof which we were very proudl, giving our class play 'The Great Ben A1lah', and giving the seniors their banquet. Our sponsor for this year was Miss Ruth Hitchcock, and we thank her for her help in all our activities. Seniors This is the final year that we seniors have been waiting for now through 11 hard years in school. Since Patty Myers got married, she didn't return this year, and we only have 15 members left in our class, 6 girls and 9 boys. Mrs. Imogene Fenimore was chosen as.our class sponsor and the following are class officers: President - Donna Bollenbacher Vice-Pres. - Irvin Kline Sec.-Treas. - Lois Stimmel Reporter - Cloyce Wells Most of us had our pictures taken at Boles-Dandurand Studio at Tiffin, and later B111 Phillips and Dale Kern had theirs taken at the same place. Dorothy Webb has been in the hospital most of the year, but hopes to return to school in April. Our class play has not been chosen yet, but we hope it will be a success when we have it. We chose our class graduating caps and gowns to be blue and white.

J'U N I 0 R P A G E The Junior Class composed of eleven members started the year out by electing the following officers President Marilyn Smith Vice President Robert Dahms Secretary Nancy Leatherman Treasurer Donna Godlove News Reporter Esther Patton Mr. Moorhead was appointed our sponsor. We tried to figure out how to make money for our class so that we could give the Seniors a ban- quet and could take a trip next year. we finally arrived at the following conclusions. 1. Sell Christmas cards, wrapping paper, stat- ionary, etc. Well, as you people know about every night there were some Junior boys and girls hound- ing your door steps. We really made money on this though. 2. Put on a class play. we presented a hill- billy play, entitled 'Feudin In The H1lls'. We really enjoyed working on it. The play was well attended. It was directed by Mr. Moorhead and Miss Miller. 5. Collecting Sales Tax stamps. These were slow in coming in, but we made quite a lot of that 'green stuff' from this idea. 4. Selling refreshments at basketball games. This is where the money rolled in. we fixed up the room that used to be the 'Manual Training Room . We sold pop, popcorn, cnady, gum, and potato chips. We began to sell refreshments on Nov. 25, our first home game until Feb. 3, our last home game. We had a lot of fun doing this, but oh, were we ever tired each night! Our class was quite active in contributing to the American Red Cross, March of Dimes, etc. We d1dn't have as many parties this year as we did last year, because we were too busy making money I guess, and then most of the boys were play- ing basketball. We did have a Christmas party though on Dec. 18 at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Moor- head. We played games, and exchanged gifts, Hrs. Moorhead then served a very nice lunch. Everyone enjoyed themselves immensely. On May 14 we honored the Seniors with a ban- quet at the Phoenix Hotel in Findlay. I guess that takes care of our activities until next year, when we will at long last be seniors. S O P H O M O R E P A G E On September 2, 1947, a group of very anxious boys and girls en- tered the Sophomore Class. All in all there were nineteen members, four of whom were new. The new members were: Wanda Faye Moffitt, who had been with us in her earlier years and who came back from Carrizo Springs, Texas, Raymond Helberg, who also had been with us in his ear- lier years and who came back from Bowling Green, Ohiog John Karfit, who came from Green Springs, Ohiog and Dolores Yockey, who came from Dayton, Ohio. Some new teachers were hired to teach high school courses this yearg they are: Miss Shawley, Miss Killer, Mrs. Fenimore, and Mrs. Lyle. Of these, Kiss Shawley was appointed our class sponsor. On Sept. 4, a meeting was called at which time the following class officers were selected: President - Bea Noykos Vice-Pres. - Gerald Moore Treasurer - Edna Kline Secretary - Ruth Gopus Reporter - Wanda Moffitt Le also decided to collect sales tax stamps as a way of making money and also to pay 25d per month class dues. he had a few parties during the year which were enjoyed by nearly everybody in our class. The first one was at Edna Kl1ne's. It was a Halloween masquerade party held in the latter part of October. In December we had a Christmas party at Gerald Hoore's house. We had drawn names and everyone received a nice gift. In the first part of January we had a party at Cloyce Stotts and we celebrated his and Tom Drummer's birthdays. It was also a farewell party for Cloyce Stott, who quit soon after. In the first part of February we celebrated Val- entine's Day with a party at the schoolhouse. During the year three boys left our class. First part of the year Raymond Helberg went back to Bowling Green, Ohio. Then in the first part of the last semester Kenny Nutter moved to Bowling Green, Chic, and Cloyce Stott quit school. when the baseball season started, some of the sports-minded Soph- omore boys went out for baseball. They helped in winning the games during the rezular season and they finally ended up as being members of the Champion Wood County baseball team. Then the basketball season came up and two of the Sophomore boys male the Varsity team. Q In the first part of the year the girls helped make up the soft- ball team. We played Liberty there and won. he then played them here and lost. When the law was passed'in favor of girls' basketball, a team was formed which consisted mostly of Sophomore girls. he played McComb here and lost by a score of 52 to 25. Finally the last day of school was here. Some were gladg others were sadg but we were all happy to be on our way to the Junior Class. F'R E S H M A N P A G E The Freshman Class of 1947-48 start ed off the school year by selecting Mrs. Leatherman as class sponsor and the fol- lowing people as class officers: President Mildred Nutter Vice President Merrill Harmon Secretary Joan Brown Treasurer Kathleen Funk Class Reporter Donald Reed Later in the year our Vice Presi- took over the job of president when Mildred Nutter moved to Bowling Green. dent We have had only one party so far this year and that was at Christmas time Because of bad roads we had it at school during the day. We all enjoyed the game and the good eats that followed them. We pay class dues once a month and we are planning to save all the money we can to go on a trip when we are Seniors. 1, , 7 .

There we suc- ceeded in capturing the Wood County Class 'Bn Baseball Championship. This is the first time that Jackson has won the Wood County Baseball Tournament since 1951.

In this game we got our revenge for the two defeats suffered at their hands the previous year by winning 58 to 28. On Nov. 25 we continnued our winning ways by defeating Liberty Glancockl in a home game 46 to 21. In our next game we initiated the loss column by losing to Cygnet 41 to 56. This game was played on Dec. 2. North Baltimore handed us our second defeat on Dec. 5 in a very close ballgame. The final score was North Baltimore 26, Jackson 25. I We defeated Liberty on Dec. 9 by a score of 40 to 24. We won this game without the help of Kline our tall guard who injured his ankle in the Cygnet game. On Dec. 12 Portage Twp. came to our home floor where we defeated them by the score of 65 to 46. Bloomdale,the team that always gave Jackson a rough time came to Jackson to play on Dec. 16. We had it fairly easy in winning this game by a score of 68 to 44. After winning three games straight, we went down to defeat at the hands of Cygnet, 48 to 58. On the night before Christmas vacation we journeyed to Malinta, and in a very closely fought game lost to them, 47 to 45, in three over- times. After Christmas vacation we played a game with undefeated N. Bal- timore, and lost in one overtime, 40 to 58. Next we took on Holgate on our home court, and after trailing at the intermission, we defeated them, 59 to 56. We played Hamler on our own court in the next encounter, and they hung a defeat on us, 50 to 42. Liberty came to our gym for a league game and we sent them back with a 68 to 45 defeat. Then we took to the road for games with Van Buren, Portage, and Bloomdale. We lost to Van Buren on their small floor, 57 to 54, but defeated Portage, 66 to 47, and Bloomdale, 65 to 29. We then returned home to play McComb. After leading the half, 57 to 8, we defeated them, 62 to 40. Grand Rapids made the long journey to Hoytville, only to be upset by the Wildcats of Jackson, 55 to 44. In our final game of the season we went to McComb, and after having a rough time for while, we defeated them, 56 to 40. The Wood County Basketball Tournament was played at Bowling Green University Gym on Fridays and Saturdays, Feb. 15, 14, 20, 21, 27, and 28 Our first game was on Sat., Feb. 14, with Cygnet, one of our league op- ponents who had defeated us twice during the regular season. In a hec- tic finish, Jackson was leading, 40 to 59, in the final minute with Cyg- net shooting a foul shot. However, the shot was missed and Jackson scored four quick points in the closing seconds to sew up the game. Our next encounter was a week later with our arch-rivals, N. Balti- more, who had also defeated us twice in league play. In a close game all the way, Drum er broke a 55-all tie in the final minute and Jackson foiled N. Baltimore's attempts to score and won, 55 to 55. On Friday, Feb. 20, we met Walbridge in a semi-final contest. Their height advantage proved too much for us and after leading most of the way, they defeated us, 58 to 55. Our first start in the District Tournament on Wednesday, March 5, was against a highly touted Rossford quintet. In a fairly close game, we upset them, 41 to 51. On the following evenin we took on New Haven Huron County champs. After leading almost the entire game, we won handily, 65 to 45, tg entgr the semi-finals. JACKSON FG FT F TP J. Kline 5 5 1 11 I.

We had an easy victory, as the girls were out to win. A few weeks later Liberty gave us a re- turn game, but we were not so lucky this time, and they defeated us by one run. That conclu- ded our softball games for that season. Although the girls cannot have official basketball games, we had a few for fun. We played our first game with McComb, and they defeated us, 25 to 52. The teams and also the officials did not know the rules too well, but the game was played fairly well. The girls who participated in the soft- ball games were: Lillian Kline, Shari Allison, Stella Copus, Dolores Kline, Edna Kline, Wanda Moffitt, Ruth Copus, Bea Noykos, Vivien George, La Vonna George, Doris Cekander, Mildred Nutter and Deloris Dishong. Those who played basketball were: Alvina Hartman, Ruth Copus, Vivien George, Bea Noykos, Wanda Moffitt, Dolores Kline, Edna Kline, La Vonna George, Doris Cekander, Mary Leatherman, and Deloris Dishong. Our coach for both softball and basketball was Mrs. Fenimore, and we want to thank her for directing our teams. We all hope that there will be girls' basketball again in the years to come. ill- 'f??E?i9if5Q i 'f : ,f5?1??2iMEZ?4' ' ' 4- X ig' ' . .-.
