Daubing themselves with paint, working out new dance routines, trying out songs, or rehearsing skits, these committee members stayed late after school to insure the success of class parties. Seniors bore the greater part of the work for the junior-senior party in November. For the first time in the history of McKinley, seniors had their class parties with the juniors. This was done because of the exceptionally small senior class of 1944. Page 45 Hallguard Chairmen First Row: Hilda Schotsch, Barbara Howell, Lucille Hyman, Mary Guist, Minnie Schotsch. Second Row: George Gravilla, Bob Poffenbaugh, Tom Graham, Octavian Cozocar. These are the students who assisted visitors in finding their way around McKinley. Two of these chairmen served each period and with the help of 12 pupils, who were stationed at each corner, they maintained order in McKinley's halls. They stopped those who didn't have hall permit slips and saw to it that no one wandered around unauthorized.

Page 60 Junior Girls For the first time in McKinley's history Juniors held their parties with the Senior class. The themes of these parties were Skinning the Tigeti' and Canbeen',. The prom at which these juniors played hosts to the seniors was held at Nazir Grotto Hall. Those who excelled in various fields were john Lauritzen in dramatics, Bob Pratt and Pat Wfilson in music, Gordon Cook and Joe Pujazon in athletics, and Bill Heller and Patricia Foltz in speech.

Supplying their homerooms with information concerning action taken by the council was one of the major duties of council- men. On these students rested the responsibilities of plans for social activities. Highlight and most important task of the year was the planning for the junior-senior prom. When general plans for class parties had been made, com- mitteemen got to work on programs, refreshments, and decorations. This year responsibilities of the first two class parties were shared with senior class committeemen. Mr. R. Barnes was chairman of the junior council.

Conscientious studying placed these juniors at the head of the scholarship list. Most of them showed not only scholastic ability, but a capacity for leadership as well. The accomplishments of next year's senior class to a large extent will be made by this group. From it will be elected those who will carry over the National Honor Society to next year.

Responsibilities assumed by the council include the collection of class dues, decisions concerning class activities, and the distri- bution of tickets' for social affairs. Problems were solved and activities were planned by the council with the help of officers and guardians. . Sophomore committees are divided into five parts including decorations, entertainment, refreshments, tickets and games. With- out these Workers there would be no parties but because of them the parties were a great success.

The praise they have won has been highly deserved.

Council members collected dues and took charge of any work connected with class activities including the distribution of tickets for class parties. Presiding over his class was Eddie Cobbett, while Lee Howell was vice-president, jean Masters handled the position of secretary, and Ralph Pucci, treasurer, looked after class finances. Page 75 Freshman Boys This is one of the largest freshman classes that ever entered at McKinley. These newcomers outnumbered the junior and senior classes combined. Leading this class was a group of faculty guardians. As chair- man of this staff was Mr. J. W. Clementsg other members were Miss Ruthana Davis, Miss Lucille Domer, Mr. F. W. Swant, Mr. Arthur Rittersbaugh, Mr. C. M. Schindler, Miss Alma Zinninger, and Miss Emile Zurcher. Page 74 Freshman Girls .MQ at QM, GMQH .Ip ,y7,f As a result of conscientious work with these advisers the two parties, one given in January and the other in April, were a big success. In this class of freshmen, there are several who made names for themselves in various activities. In the speech department, Nancy McDevitt and Gene Shackle were outstanding. Frank Kousaie claimed the title of class genius while Mary Hodel and Billy Harokopus excelled in scholarship. Those outstanding in different fields of athletics were Bill Warren in track, Harry Shearer in swimming and Lee Howell in basketball, also Eddie Cobbett in football.

His untiring work, managing all of McKin1ey's sports, has been of untold aid. Truly i produced in the past year.

After getting off to a slow start in the first period of play the Bulldogs took to air and rolled along the ground with considerable speed to overpower their intra- city rivals 54-12. AKRON SOUTH McKinley rang up its second victory of the season by whipping the Akron South Cavaliers 46-0 in its most decisive victory of the campaign. The scoring honors were widely distributed with Tony Rotunno and Hank Smith accounting for two touchdowns each. Both Pujazon and Korosedes made touchdownsg the way was cleared for them by Dick Kempthorn. Dick Meacham tallied the final touchdown as the Bulldogs made their most im- pressive exhibition of the season.

The only scoring in the third quarter was on a Pujazon to Hatting pass. ln the final stanza Smith climaxed a 55 yard match. Then Lincoln began a sustained march which resulted in the Lions' lone tally. Rotunno and Korosedes accounted for the final markers. WARREN The highly under-rated Warren Presidents stayed off the powerful McKinley attack by handing the Bulldogs a 13-13 tie, in one of the most exciting games of the season. The McKin1eyites did their entire scoring in the second periodg Pujazon scored on a 10-yard dash and three minutes later Pujazon passed to Rotunno, who ran 45 yards for the Bulldogs second tally. The Presidents scored in the third stanza on a long pass. With the score tied, both lines tightened up and throughout the rest of the contest put up on a solid defense.

The first McKinley rally came in the second quarter when Pujazon displayed some brilliant broken field running to tally on a 96 yard dash. Late in the same period, Pujazon passed to Kistler in the end zone. Pujazon again took to the air and passed to Cook for the third marker. Then, with about 5 seconds remaining in the game Pujazon intercepted a pass on his own 4 yard line and galloped for final score.

Trailing 7-0 into the final quarter, having been outplayed throughout the first half, the Red and Black unleased a powerful ground attack and chalked up two touchdowns by joe Pujazon. The backfield turned in an outstanding per- formance with Korosedes clicking off considerable gains. MASSILLON BOB PARKS Center JOHN COBETT Before a thrill-packed crowd of 23,000 the hard- fighting McKinley Bulldogs were stung by the fang of the Massillon Tigers who avenged their 55-0 defeat of last year by whipping Rearick's boys 21-0. The main stave for the Bengals was their line which charged and out-fought the Bulldogs decisively. Throughout the first half the game was scorless, but immediately in the third quarter the Tigers started marching. The Bengals tallied once in the third period and once in the final quarter. Get Jet! 91-93-95 . . . HIKE! Page 84 '43 Varsity Basketball '44 At the beginning of the season, McKinley's chances of having a first-rate team looked rather slim. Only one letterman from last year, Hank Smith, would be with the team, the rest were green and inexperienced. As usual McKinley had a tough schedule. But as the season progressed, the squad developed ability smoothness, and the right form, which all tend toward making a good team. During the season, the team beat several teams, going in as the underdog , but coming out on top. Massillon proved to be too much for McKinley the first time, winning by a score of 47-42g but the Bulldogs came back with plenty of fight and took the second game by drubbing them 48-59. The close of the season showed the Bulldogs had won ten of their eighteen games, Hank Smith being the leading scorer with 186 points. In sectional play the Bulldogs played fine ball, drubbing Girard 56-26 and trimming Youngstown Chaney 53-28. Lehman was too tough for the Bulldogs in the finals of the sectional tournament and won by a score of 44-38. Coach Bup Rearick deserves much praise for the fine players he turned out this year. All but one of the team are juniors or sophomores and will return next year.

The team Won but one of their three games, that being a 13-0 defeat administered to Lincoln reserves. The squad is made up of fresh- men and sophomores only and consequently all of the boys will be back next year, some of which may show enough promise to make the varsity.

Organization began with the enrollment of members. All girls in the three upper classes who had successfully completed three subjects during the year preceding were eligible for membership and all freshmen and new girls in the school were invited to join. The campaign began with an all-girl assembly at which time the general plans and ideas of the club were explained. Then followed three days during which the girls signed up. More than half of all the girls in school became members of the organization. Page 108 Junior Girls Boosters With the opening of the football season the girls turned their attention to that sport, endeavoring to give to the team the support which it earned by its season's showing. Special attention was given to teaching the new girls the McKinley songs and cheers. They were also encouraged to get the habit of regular attendance at the games. This year, for the first time, the Girls' Booster club sponsored the football dance. This affair was held on Wednesday evening after the close of the football season and was given in honor of the coaches and the team, all of whom were the special guests of the event. Some six hundred McKinley students turned out to pay honor to their team. The following week the girls sold tickets for the student football banquet which was held in the cafeteria of the Timken Vocational High school. Page 109 Sophomore Girls Boosters T in glxallllli' The Girls' Booster club was in charge of several pep assemblies held before im- portant basketball games. Members formed a large part of the cheering section at all games and many followed the team on its out-of-town trips. Large mirrors were placed at the mezzanine floor entrances on the girls' side of the building and smaller ones were placed in the girls' lavatory in the basement and in room 14, as gifts of the club to the girls of the school. Two parties furnished the social side of the organization. In October a Hallowe'en party was held at which time all members of the club were invited. This was an all girls party. Page 110 Freshman Girls' Boosters asa in In April a party was held jointly with the Boys' Booster club. This was a Patriotic party, and programs and favors followed this theme. Only the girls who had shown their loyalty by their support of some school activity were eligible to attend. In order to obtain money for projects of the club the girls sold pencils at the beginning of the basketball season. They also sold address books at the beginning of the year. Before the McKinley-Massillon game they sold red chrysanthemums which were worn by all loyal fans to that game. The final gesture of the club will be the presentation of a medal during the Class Night exercises to the senior girl named as the outstanding Booster of the class.

They also check on their members and turn in the names of girls who plan to attend the parties. They served as committee members for the first big Booster party of the year. They have been willing and faithful workers during the entire year. Much of the success of the group depended on the efforts of these girls. Without such a group a club of the size of the Booster club would be unable to carry on.

The call met with a ready response. The sales girls sold more than ten thousand programs during the season. For the first time girls were ushers at the games. A group of twenty girls were on hand at every game during the early part of the season, but at the McKinley-Massillon game more than one hundred girls served. While some served at only one game many served at all of them. They proved themselves to be capable of handling a crowd for they seated twenty thousand people at the final game.

Six hundred tickets were sold for the football dance in honor of the team. The response to the call for salesgirls for tickets for the senior class play was more than three hundred dollars. Sales for the operetta tickets went over the five hundred dollar mark. In the McKin1eyite campaign more than eight hundred yearbooks were sold by the Boosters. In all of these campaign prizes were awarded to the individual girls who recorded the highest sales. The group pictured above in- cludes the prize winners for the year.
