.Zecficwfian CLYDE HARR ACOMBER VOCATIONAL High School's splendid ath- letic program is regarded with admiration by all persons. Es- pecially, do the Alumni feel proud of the progress which has been realized in the creation of our Athletic Department. Fourteen years ago Clyde Harr, a mathematics teacher, joined the faculty of Vocational. Realizing that the craftsmen needed athletics, Mr. Harr exerted his efforts in organizing an Intra-mural program. In 1934, when Vocational received its First Class High School Charter, the foundation for a real athletic program was laid. Funds were raised, teams were developed for out-of-school competition, and complimentary newspaper publicity was ob- tained. Mr. Harrls sincere efforts won him the admiration and respect of his fellow teachers who joined him in the promotion of his worthy project. Now, Macomber's athletic program includes many intra- mural sports, gymnasium work for ever student, and compet- itive city league teams in baseball, basketball, golf, tennis, and bowling. At the present time Mr. Harr is our Athletic Director and our baseball coach. During his coaching career, Macomber has won three city league championships in baseball and the To- ledo Blade Sportmanship Trophy in the school year of 1936- 1937. In recognition for his valuable work of the past, which now provides the students of Macomber with a variety of ath- letic activities, the Senior Class of 1942 dedicates their yearbook to Coach CLYDE HARR. - mucous: Page four
