'S 2 Il THE ACORN QQ TT O Annual Report of the Principal LTHOUG1-1 in industry this period from September 8, 1930, to June 2, 1931. has been a period of depression, in Oakwood High School it has been a school year marked by good health on the part of the boys and girls, with freedom from much sickness and serious ac- cidents. with our largest high school enrollment-552 as compared with 499 the preceding year- with a high attendance record of 94.5 per cent, and with industrious application and excellent achievement in the many curricular and extra-curricular pursuits of the school. We are all very proud of our graduating class, the eighth and the largest class to graduate from Oakwood in.the history of the school: and one of the best classes in school spirit, in right attitudes. and in Cooperation that we have ever had. An outstanding event in the history of the high school was the decision of the Board of Education and the Superintendent of Instruction to build a new junior high school. providing for the separation of the junior and senior high schools. The bond issue of 3360.000 for th: acquisition of land and for the construction and equipment of the new junior high school was carried in the November election by the vote of 1817 to 902. After the sale of bonds, drawing up of plans by the architects, and advertising for bids. construction work began in April. THE PARENT-TEACHER ASSOCIATION Nine well-attended monthly meetings were held during the year and six evening dinners. The organization gave very active support to the school program. cooperated in bringing Superintendent Beatty of Bronxville, N. Y., for the March meeting of six hundred Oakwood School patrons, and awarded the scholarship and the athletic prizes for the year to the pupils. FOLLOW-UP OF GRADUATES Of the 205 graduates to date Cexclusive of the present graduating classj, 170, an unusual number. have taken advanced courses in colleges. technical schools. or finishing schools. Thirty- five have gone directly into industry or home-making. In this school year there were 105 attending 55 different colleges. There are 64 of these enrolled in Midwestern colleges, 32 in Eastern colleges, 7 in Southern colleges, 1 in a far-Western college, and 2 in foreign schools. Oakwood has graduates in both West Point and Annapolis. with its certificate recognized by them. HOME-ROOMS In order to inculcate virtue as well as knowledge, in order to give the necessary educational and vocational guidance that modern life demands. the plan of six-year adviserships for home- rooms. men for boys and women for girls, was instituted seven years ago. Some very close relationships have been developed as a result between our youth and teachers, that, judging from the frequent retum of our graduates to see their former advisers. bids fair to be lasting. The program of home-room activities this year under each adviser has included individual private conferences, follow-up of school work to secure good results and prevent failure, talks and discussions on proper conduct, attitudes, ideals, emphasis on honesty. courtesy, courage, self- control and direction, good humor and industry, study of current events and current life, and information regarding vocations and colleges. 1 5 N I -'ggf A C 0 R N E T f' VOCATIONAL GUIDANCE For the last three years Oakwood has had an unusual course in the senior year in career- finding and in college guidance. All seniors take this course which includes: CID intensive study Q of at least one vocation and an interview with some man or woman in that vocation: C25 the l YZ I l I nh l Ten study of at least one college, including courses offered, and a budget of expenses for first year: C31 a self-analysis study, using outlines and charts that have been prepared. There is also an elementary course in vocational guidance in the seventh year and in the eighth year, in order to give proper direction to the junior high school pupils. STUDENT FORUMS In order to develop self-expression on the part of all pupils. a new project was introduced this year. The seventh and eighth year pupils met as a group of approximately two hundred during the fifth period on every Wednesday afternoon. the ninth year as a group of one hundred met the sixth period, and the tenth, eleventh, and twelfth years met as a group of two hundred and fifty during the seventh period. With the encouragement and suggestions of three respective faculty committees, these groups carried out weekly programs of expression work in vocal and instrumental music, art, physical education. parliamentary procedure, talks, discussions, debates. reports, and playlets. As high as fifty in number have taken part in one weekly program. As a result of these programs there is confidence and self-assurance and a spontaneity that gives promise of active participation and leadership in future adult affairs. This year has also seen for the first time the formation of permanent subject committees among the faculty for the purpose of studying and revising the curriculum. A complete tentative outline of the course of study has been compiled and printed. We are including in this report the summaries of the work carried on in the different depart- ments of the school as prepared by the chairman of these departments. . ENGLISH The English department has sought to develop ability to read with understanding and to write correctly. More and better creative wlork especially in poetry, has been done this year and use of the library for supplementary reading has increased. Last June three eleventh-year students and three twelfth-year students passed Comprehensive College Board English. One ninth-year girl and one seventh year girl won first prizes in their respective years in the Dayton Community Chest Essay Contest. MATHEMATICS In our schools all pupils study mathematics through the eleventh year. Students who intend to enter Engineering schools may take Solid Geometry and Trigonometry in the twelfth year. More work has been accomplished by the mathematics classes this year than previously. The x and y classes in the eighth year were able to finish arithmetic by the middle of the year and begin regular Algebra. This step-up in the course will permit the addition of Advanced Algebra to our curriculum in the middle of the tenth year. This additional course will aid our graduates in industry and give them special advantages in their freshman year in college mathematics. NATURAL SCIENCES E In the sciences, including Elementary Science in the seventh and eighth years, Biology in the ninth. Chemistry in the eleventh, and Physics in the twelfth, accuracy, thoroughness, and logical thinking have been emphasized. In Biology the pupil is trained to respect and protect his own body and all living things. The year's work in Chemistry and in Physics has been marked by drill in precise statement of theory and accuracy in calculation, together with broad .. DV.- if , ' V91 Ii if or Yi l t I i . TP C' THE FAC0,RNi 'W' A A G supplementary readings. With the cooperation of the English department, the results of this reading were incorporated in a 2500-word theme. Many essays were entered in the American Chemical Society Prize Essay Contest. SOCIAL SCIENCES The social sciences include the study of U. S. history, geography and civics in the seventh and eighth years, Ancient History in the tenth year, Modern History in the eleventh year. and American History and Government in the twelfth year. A work book was added to senior American History this year, and more emphasis placed on College Board requirements. First and second places were taken last year by Oakwood students in the Citizenship Essay Contest sponsored by the Civitan Club. Several essays were entered in the contest again this year. LATIN The value of Latin to English and the other subjects in the school curriculum has been stressed throughout the year's work. Many books dealing with classical subjects have been added to the library for collateral reading. An exploratory course has been offered for all seventh-year pupils, and Latin V, equivalent to college freshman Latin, will be added for advanced students. Twelve students will represent the Latin department in the College Board Examinations this year. FRENCH There has been a very definite effort to make the transition from the French of the elementary grades to that of the high school less marked. Great stress has been laid upon the practical side of the language through the introduction of considerable conversational material. Much more composition work has been introduced this year: the students of the advanced classes were required to read at least one supplementary classic in addition to the regular class work. An effort has been made to keep in mind the various college requirements and the usability of the language for travel SPANISH The aim of the Spanish department has been to offer a course that meets all College Board requirements and at the same time stimulates an interest in Spanish as a living language. In order to develop interest in practical Spanish a club has been organized: the outstanding accomplish- ments of this organization this year were the presentation of two Fiestas, one before the Christ- mas holidays and one in May. COMMERCIAL ARTS Typewriting and Shorthand were the only commercial subjects offered this year: advanced shorthand and bookkeeping will be added next year. In beginning typewriting two students distinguished themselves by attaining speeds of fifty-one and fifty-eight words per minute: the requirement for the first year is twenty-five words per minute. In the shorthand class, the entire Gregg manual is completed and students are able to take dictation at a rate of about 60 words per minute on straight material at the end of the year. HOUSEHOLD ARTS The aim of this department is to inculcate a realization of the basic importance of the girl's relationship to the home, along with practical instruction in dress designing and nutrition. An exhibit is held each year before the Christmas Holidays at which time the handwork of the E Y I Eleven I qi I ll' M. W ll 5 THE ACORNL CW' I girls in this department is displayed. The spring fashion revue, in which the girls model clothes made during the year, was included this spring in the original musical comedy, When Dreams Come True. INDUSTRIAL ARTS There are three divisions in this department: General Shop, Printing, and Mechanical Drawing. Included in the first mentioned is foundry work: casting in sand, ornamental wrought iron, and omamental weather vanes: electric motors: pottery: airplane and ship models: some cement projects. The printing classes turn out display matter for school projects, print regu- larly the Oak Leaf and Elementary School Bulletin. Mechanical Drawing includes freehand sketching in the seventh and eighth years and engineering, architectural, and airplane drawing in the elective classes. FINE ARTS AND CRAFTS The activities of this department have been varied and interesting. Textile designing was one of the chief projects and the exhibit cases of the school were bright for a time with beautiful material. One student enjoys the distinction of winning a national award for her design. Eight students in this department won second place in the national group award sponsored by the Magazine World. Advanced pupils have made illustrations for magazine covers and have drawn from cast and life. Beginning classes have enjoyed the crafts, particularly Woodblock printing, leather tooling, book-binding, and soap sculpture. All have gained in skill and an appreciation of liner things. MUSIC Music achievements of the year include: The performance of standard light opera by the senior chorus groups: individual and class vocal lessons to 16 individuals: instrumental lessons to 23 persons: the development of the school band into a concert organization: participation in inter-class glee club contest by all six of the choral groups of the school: establishment in the curriculum of a full-time course in Musical Theory CI-Iarmonyj, drawing full credit: introduc- tion and successful operation of a point system for evaluating achievement and credits in all music and assembly activities: successful performance in 57 appearances before the public: par- ticipation in elective music activities of 35 per cent of the entire student body and an enrollment in all elective music courses of more than 280. PHYSICAL EDUCATION Classes in Physical Education are conducted twice a week for boys and for girls. The aim of these classes is to have every pupil participate in athletics, thus fostering the all-around development of the boy or girl. Intramural sports are sponsored by this department and all pupils are given an opportunity to represent their classes on some team. Hygiene lectures are also included in this course. The Physical Education department gave its second annual demon- stration this year, before members of the Parent-Teacher Association. v Q 5 Q LAI -ll we snags: Twelve QNT'iFilV'lf!5f 4 'RTHE ACORNA- WA N i N YI 1? g N 'S' ? 0 tv P , I 0, 0 SENIOR CLASS OFFICERS President ASS,..SS... ,.S.,....SS...,SAS,......A,............,,,S,............,.

CYA- ACORNWAY IT Class lfilisitory EVEN members of this wondrous Class of 1931 started together in kinder- garten: Dale Mitman, Charles Dille, Bob Blank, Jack Runyan, Bob Bunn, Ruth Mary Kurz, and Rosemary Cowden. It was in this year that Bob Blank started his long career of supplying lumber for class enterprises. Two stout bulwarks in the class reputation for womanly beauty came in the first grade in the persons of Marjorie Kilbourne and Lillian Steen. In the second grade, two more were added to our ranks: Evelyn O'Neill and John Olt, the latter having added much luster to our name by his brilliance. In the third grade we lost Ruth Kurz, who went to Moraine and then returned to us. This year we added Mabel Gibson and Mary Lenore Whyte. In the fourth grade came Dorothy Barr, Nancy Worman, and Betty May Nevin. Even then Dorothy played the piano. Nancy quickly won the Girls' Wrestling Championship of the fourth grade. Betty May's hair was as red then as it is now and she thought Bill Hall was the handsomest boy she had ever seen. Another notable event of that year was Brewster Kemble's proposal of marriage to Marjorie Kilbourne one day in the cloak room. Jane Gray, Rich Wilcock, and the class president, Dan Prugh, came in the fifth grade. None of the girls who were present will ever forget the fight Jane Gray and Betty May had one noon coming home from school. None of you younger people, who see them now as beautiful, dignified senior girls, can imagine how they looked when they flew at each other with their fists. Skating parties were organized during this year and the whole class participated. This custom endured until we entered the seventh grade. On entering the high school we felt we were too dignified to permit the good people of the village to see us on roller skates. ' In the sixth grade came Katherine Matthieu, Janet Gunter, and Catherine Brundrett. Can't you just see Gunter's beautiful long, brown curls. The spring of that year will long be associated for all of us with the pleasant memory of long hours of escape from school to go over to Runnymede and practice for the pageant. Wasn't Charles Dille a devilish-looking Pluto? A tragic accident happened to one of our members in this year. The class wasgenjoying the customary picnic at the Dickerson farm when the girls, walking in a group through a field, saw a ferocious 'lbull not far away. The boys chased this animal down upon us and, in our frantic haste to escape being gored, we had to climb a barbed wire fence. .Mabel Gibson, customarily late, this time was in too much of a hurry and ripped the entire skirt from her dress. The bull later proved to be a cow, but that didn't make Mabel feel any better. Margaret MeLampy, Jean Hodgson, Buddy Trimmer, Irene Wilder- muth, and Frances Mangold came in the seventh grade. And weren't we proud Twenty me N r Rl rv THE ACCORN i,f'i'YC to actually be grown up and over at the high school. There were at least two secret societies organized to explore the building and find places no one else knew about. In the eighth grade the class grew greatly in number and brilliance with the addition of Boyce Hatfield, Charles Campbell, Paul Shawhan, Ed Gravett, Roland Reich, Jack Boyles, and Frank Heilig, our star track man. In the ninth grade twenty new people were added: Mary Marshall, Mary Keller, Violet Manney, Clinton Courson, Robert Kuhns, Jack Moore, Herbert Baker, Charles Corwin, Harry Wilkerson, Kermit Riegel, George Neal, Fred Weaver, Janet Smith, Jim Connelly, Hastings Baker, Ruth Coleman, Irene Krouse, Bob Ferneding, and Jane Ditzel. Ruth Kurz, realizing her mis- take in leaving us, came back from Moraine. These people have worked so suc- cessfully throughout their high school careers that today the class of '31 is generally conceded to be one of the best ever to be graduated from Oakwood High School. Charles Black, who, with George Neal, has added so much fame to our glorious reputation by his exploits on the gridiron, came in the tenth year, as did Paul Kennett, Virginia Bange, and Calista Riegel. The tenth year marked the advent of the class into high school athletics. This was the last year that we ever had a picnic but we firmly believe that no class ever had more fun on its picnics than we did. Woodtli Grandin, Joyce Rinderknecht, Marianna Kiefaber, and Bob Daily came in the eleventh year. At the end of this year we gave a farewell to the senior class at the Miami Hotel. This farewell was made possible by the work of every person in the class in selling tickets for a Victory Theater party. It is in this, our senior year, however, that we have blossomed forth into our full power and beauty. The names of Robert Maclean, Jane Whitmer, and Cedric Donado were added to our roll and with them to swell the rank we have risen to our present state of supremacy. The Class of 1931, always noted for its forward looking attitude decided to agree with the School Board and adopted caps and gowns for graduation wear This is a major example of the class many virtues To the members of the faculty of the school who have taken such a sincere have guided us for the six years that now seem so short we the Class of 1931, offer our deepest gratitude and appreciation To you Juniors we leave an example of a fine class and you will have to strive greatly to equal us We also extend to you our best possible wishes for as pleasant a senior year as we have had Rosemary C owden. 9 1' Q and helpful interest in us, and especially to Miss Weber and Mr. Hummon, who Thirty Q31 ' Q l xxx YI L l Q5 lr l s S THE ACORNA- 'W' The least Will and Testament OF The Senior Class OE Oakwood High School In the Year of Our Lord . 1931 Know AII Men By These Presents and To Whom It May Concern, We, the Class of 1931, being of minor age and unsound mind, do hereby appoint Edmund J.

Article I LANDS, BUILDINGS AND ACCESSORIES All the land, beginning with a fixed point, designated by an imaginary chalk mark on the cement walk on the S.E. Corner near a street light, running thence in an easterly direction to an iron post near Neg Schaeffer's house continuing north 10 rods and 3 degrees to an unknown garage, thence west. past the rear of Mr. Claggett's home to an ant hill near a maple tree, and thence south 10 rods and 3 degrees to original starting point, comprising in all approx- imately two acres, same being improved with a brick high school building completely furnished with statuary, 1 Superintendent and Principal, 28 teachers C15 male and 13 femalej, an athletic field with sundry coaches, and a lot of other good things too numerous to mention: and all land on the east side of Schantz Ave., surrounded by a high wire fence, to be improved with a Junior High School. All these together with the blue sky, the bright sunshine, the gentle breezes, the leafy trees, the beautiful flowers, the singing birds, in fact, the whole wonderful world, and the blessed advantages of this High School, we leave to the boys and girls of Oakwood that they too may develop into physical and mental giants to take our individual places-for we certainly will be missed. ff J I so IIE illi- Thirty I I I Y I Thirty-t WCf'Xx6V:lTHE ACORN wwf' A -2.

Article 3 GRATUITIES, HONORARY AND OTHERWISE To the Junior Class, who think they're so all-fired hot, we leave the city fire department: may the hook and ladder wagon help them to reach the high marks set by this class, may the siren arouse them to greater deeds, and may the helmets crown them as they need to be crowned: and with this goes our Senior dignity, if any.

Edmund Johnson Gravett, '31 g Y Laf1rlw-unwqfvr-Q 1 Thirty th 4, Y 7 ,sf THE ACORN Q. The Class Prophecy Mr. A. E. Claggett, principal of the Oakwood High School, in keeping with his policy of looking up the records of the graduating classes ten years after their graduation, has delved deeply into the lives of the members of the class of '31, and has made many astounding discoveries. Through the assistance of his very competent private secretary, Joyce Rinderknecht, Mr. Claggett was able to get in touch with, or receive informa- tion about, every member of the class. This illustrious group of people is represented in almost every important field of activity. The class has quite a large representation in the world of athletics. Kermit Riegel reached such heights in his pole-vaulting that, out of necessity, he invented a parachute for pole-vaulters. His loving wife, Violet, Kenny says, is his chief reason for wanting to get off the ground. Marjorie Kilbourne has gone in for athletics in a big way and her manager, Calista Riegel, is confident that Marge will enter the women's Olympics next year. Last year's winner of the National Bunion Derby, Edmund Gravett, is in a sanitarium trying to recover from a bad case of fallen arches. Marianna Kiefaber and Janet Smith have become famous as the country's foremost welfare workers. They recently founded an asylum for foundlings, The Reverend James Connelly has just started some extensive missionary work in the darkest corners of Dayton's East End. All the graduates are planning to send their children to Janet C1unter's Collegiate School for Young Boys, where their morals will be properly taken care of: a noble and hard task indeed. Dr. and Mrs. Dan Prugh, nee Jean Hodgson, are doing a great and distinguished piece of work in the Hawaiian Islands. They are teaching the natives how to be calm. Mr. Claggett was shocked beyond words to find that little Charles Black has become one of the famous gigolos of gay Paree. Charles is continually pestered by Jane Ditzel, who is just dying to dance with him. Robert Kuhns, Elinor Glyn's latest rival, has just completed his newest novel, The Passions of Youth. Marie Dressler and Polly Moran have at last been put out of business by that famous comedy team of Nancy Worman and Betty May Nevin. They are featured together with Mickey Mouse in a two-reel comedy, Cheesed Ta Meetchaf' Paul Shawhan is also in the Cast. An interesting bit of news came to Mr. Claggett from Vienna, when he heard that Corwin and Mangold, famous dancing team had decided to dance through life together. .. -Y.- Th ty-four a .r it .

Charles Dille, champion flagpole sitter of Montgomery county, is now trying to hatch the ball on the pole of the U. B. building. T Mr. Claggett had no trouble in hearing about Irene Wildermuth. as her daily chatter on timely topics can be heard any time over the radio. This profession has attracted other graduates of this famous class in the persons of Jack Runyan, -Bob Bunn, Bud Trimmer, and Bob Daily, better known as the Pasty Yeast Pesters, who broadcast nightly from Campbell's Catsy Cafe. on the roof of the Hotel National, CDayton's Finestj. Fred Weaver and Paul Kennett have bought out Mr. Gallagher and are now running one of the largest drug store chains in the country. Mabel Gibson is quite successful as one of the best dog doctors this vicinity has known. McCrory's live and ten cent store consider themselves very fortunate in having Dorothy Barr at the piano in the music department. Catherine Brundrett sings and sells. and it is reported they do a rousing business. The class is having its little troubles in the sea of Matrimony. Mrs. Boyles, nee Lillian Steen, finding Jack lingering too long over the glistening molars of Evelyn O'Neill, has decided to sue for alienation of affections. It is rumored that the former Ruth Coleman is again suing for divorce. This divorce grant will make Ruth one up on Peggy Joyce. The defendant is Boyce Hatfield: poor Boyce never could resist a Woman's smile. A few of the members of the class have turned to politics. Mary Lenore Whyte is matron of Dayton's police station. Katherine Matthieu, whose work along the lines of extended woman suffrage has been deeply appreciated, has decided to take another step in furthering the emancipation of woman. Miss Matthieu is accepting the position of Ambassador to Japan. From Chicago comes the news that Fighting Bob MacLean has been elected mayor of that great city. He is reported as having said he is going to fight to the death, Chicago's leading rival gangsters, Scarface Woodtli Grandin, and Bugs Mitman. Here's luck to Bobby. The great philanthropist, Jane Gray, has given another proof of her benevolence. She has opened a charitable institution in which beds and break- fasts are supplied for worthy individuals who have not the means to enjoy these luxuries. Harry Wilkerson, as editor of the Woman's Magazine, has writ- ten some interesting articles on The Rights of Women in the Home. Mr. Claggett was glad to find that Cedric Donado is professor of psychology at Columbia University. One of his pet subjects is Modesty in Youth. M S Q mmm nv. QAJKTHE ACORN Q, CY- Miss Irene Krouse has a very important position on the staff of one of the leading newspapers of New York. Miss Krouse writes eight pages of comics for the Sunday paper. Irene very graciously gives all the credit to her divine inspiration, Frank Heilig. Virginia Bange, Ruth Kurz, and Mary Marshall are said to be the most graceful and beautiful mannequins in Mr. Herbert Baker's Modiste Shoppe. Robert Blank has made a name for himself through his ability to pose as a model for Fashion Park clothes. Aided by the cooperation of his two models, Mary Keller and ,Margaret MeLampy, Alfred Worthington has risen to the heights as a magazine illustrator. Jane Whitmer is going to .move her undertaking establishment to Chicago, where, she has heard, business is booming. - Roland Reich has secretly left for Germany, where he is going to aid the Kaiser to regain his lost empire. Rosemary Cowden has also suddenly be- come interested in foreign affairs. She just recently became the wife of a Rus- sian diplomat. Clinton Courson's new newspaper column Can It Be True? threatens to put Ripley and all others out of business. All the world is honoring that daring adventurer Jack Moore and his mechanic, Robert Ferneding for their feat of flying around the world in a rocket. Upon their return to Oakwood they were welcomed by City Mana- ger John Olt. Mr. Claggett is very proud of the noble and varied branches of work undertaken by this class and said his only hope was that the outlook on the other classes could be as favorable. Richard Wilcock.

Former Graduating classes have planted their ivy at other parts of this building and their vines have added beauty to it as their achievements since leaving have added further glory to the institution. Let us consider why the ivy has been chosen to represent our class. Today, this small plant has scarcely started to grow. Its branches are now collected at the main stem, but soon they will leave each other. So are we about to leave each other and branch off to other parts of the world. A branch of this ivy as it leaves the main stem, will select the brick on which it chooses to cling. Possibly some branch will meet a brick which might hinder its progress, but, if that branch has the necessary grit and determination, it will keep on going, unimpeded, to its goal, The ambition of each branch, as it leaves the stem, is to gain the top. But only the best will do so, and those who haven't the power to attain their ambition will have to be content to live below the others. We are now leaving this school for higher things. We have our ambitions and hopes of success, but some may not achieve them. Let us all try to possess the grit and determination to overcome all rough bricks that may be in our path and gain the heights of success. And yet, whatever success the future holds for us, let us remember that, as the roots of this ivy are placed in this ground, so are the roots of our learning embedded in Oakwood High School. And then, the planting of this ivy means that another class is graduating from Oakwood. It means that another body of students is breaking up. leaving each other, possibly never to assembleagain. Most of us have enjoyed four years of happy companionship and some have been friends even longer. We have cherished each other's friendship, worked unitedly, and helped one another with our problems. It will be a pleasure in the years to come to be able to look back on the time we have spent at Oakwood and may our thoughts for- ever cling to the school as this ivy does to its walls. We have acquired our roots, let us plant them firmly and start climbing. As this ivy will grow upward, seeking light, so let us climb, seeking the best in life, striving to obtain those things that will be of benefit to ourselves and to our friends. Charles C orwin.

Many different types of sports made this splendid showing possible, Oakwood having one of the most complete athletic programs of any high school in the state. The major sports engaged in by Oakwood were football, basketball, baseball. and track: the minor sports in which the school was represented were golf, tennis, wrestling, and swimming. The girls were also busy throughout the year, having varsitl teams in hockey, basketball, and tennis. The sports in which the lads of the Junior High School participated were football, basketball, track and wrestling. Although Oakwood failed to win any Suburban League titles, the Lum- berjacks were strong contenders in both football and basketball: they finished a close second in football and took third place in the basketball race. As the Suburban League has been dissolved, Oakwood will be in but one league next year-the Little Three. Suffering its only defeat of the season at the hands of Fairmont, Oakwood was forced to take second place in the Little Three football race. There was a three-way tie in the League at the close of the basket- ball season. An intramural basketball program was arranged for those students who did not play on school teams. Many interesting games were staged in both boys' and girls' intramural contests. Mr. Wagstaff and Miss Pope handled the gymnasium classes of the boys and the girls, respectively, and had charge of the intramurals. Much credit is due them for their success in developing the students in the various sports as well as in the gymnasium activities. An ex- hibition, which included demonstrations of all the gymnasium activities, was given for the Parent-Teacher Association on the evening of April 10. For the first time in several years Oakwood did not have a cross-country team this spring. It was thought best to abolish this sport because there are not many school represented by such teams and also because the training for this sport somewhat hinders the condition of the athletes for the regular track season. As the ACORN was going to press, the track and tennis teams were still undefeated. Our track team-last year's Class B state championship team-succeeded in getting off to a flying start in the meets held in the early part of the season. Oakwood has established its athletic teams in almost every line of sport and has shown a remarkable degree of proficiency in all of them. The reason for this is obvious to those familiar with our athletic system. Individual in- struction is begun in the lower grades and every student is given an opportun- ity to try his hand at all sports. By the time a pupil reaches high school, con- stant drilling in the fundamentals of each sport has enabled him to become fairly proficient in those activities he has selected. Forty M Nl l l RI 'w K R K Fifty ' THE ASCORN S., TT llfootballl Coaches: MR. Cook, MR. WAGSTAPF. MR. HUMMON, MR. MARSH HE most successful football team in Oakwood's history represented the school on the gridiron last fall. Wading through a schedule of nine games, The Lumberjacks achieved a record of eight victories and one defeat. The defeat was a surprising one and came at the hands of our traditional rival, Fairmont, in the annual Thanksgiving Day encounter. The greatest scoring combination we have ever had romped through the schedule to score a total of 4l l points: a total of 13 points were chalked up by our nine opponents. The highest number of points scored by Oakwood in a single game was 75. Excluding the Fairmont game, the lowest number of points made in a single game was 33. Prospects for next season are bright, despite the fact that a number of vacancies are left through graduation. The regulars who graduate this year are: Black, Neal, Corwin, Riegel, Baker, Shawhan, and Worthington. The f'l1T'l of having four coaches for football this year worked splendidly and it will la' continued next year. The success of this year's team was largely due to the 'lent coaching received.

MELKUS LAYING a schedule of nine games, the Junior High School football team, or the Third Team as it was frequently called, acquired a record of six wins, two losses, and one tie. ' The team won its opening game from Col. White School by the score of 13 , to 7, showing potential strength. However, the next two contests furnished Q surprises, Lincoln handing Oakwood a 6 to 0 defeat and Hamilton Junior High , holding the Lumberjacks to a 0 to 0 tie. Starting out anew, Oakwood set 8 'l back Belmont, the Fairmont Seconds, and Wayne Township by the scores , of 20 to 6, 19 to O, and I3 to O, respectively. A return game with Hamilton netted the visitors a 6 to 0 victory. Follow- ing this defeat, Oakwood closed its season by vanquishing the Osborn Seconds 8 to 0 and walloping Belmont, in a return game, to the tune of 26 to 7. A total of 99 points was piled up by Oakwood to '52 for the opponents. A The Third Team continually feeds the varsity grid team with material. U 'AGreen youngsters acquire experience and polish by competing on this team l and have little trouble in winning a place on the varsity when they become eli- gible for it. The outstanding player on this year's Junior High team was ' 5 Eddie Shuey. By reason of his moving to California, the varsity team for next year will lose a wonderful tackle. .Q ff ' , LJXDYEH-BIZ 77- gg 1 Nxgh Fifty-ive I, T og Y' ' i sql Mi le, ff Jiw A Hockey HE hockey team this year made a good showing, losing only one game during the entire season. The first game was with Antioch College, at Yellow Springs, and ended in a O to O tie. Next the Villagers encountered the Fairview team here and came out on top with a 4 to O victory. A week later Fairview returned to be downed again, this time by a 5 to O score. ln this encounter Jane Fitzgibbons played an outstanding game, dribbling the length of the field and scoring by a beautiful, hard drive. Next, Oakwood went to Columbus to play the Columbus School for Ciirls and met their only defeat of the season. The Villagers made a poor start and C. S. Ci. scored two goals in the first half. Oakwood came back in the second half and scored one goal. The star of this game was Calista Riegel. who dribbled, time after time, the length of the field, getting by all the Colum- bus team only to be stopped from scoring by the goal keeper, Antioch came here for a return game but was again defeated by Oakwood. A number of girls on the team were seniors and their loss will be keenly felt next year. Among these are: Calista Riegel, Mary Lenore Whyte Ccap- tain of this year's teamyj, Jean Hodgson, Jane Ciray, Ruth Mary Kurz, Jane Whitmer. and Rosemary Cowden.

ROBERTSON W WRESTLING team was organized at Oakwood this year under the super- vision of Mr. Robertson. This sport is a new addition to our athletic roster, and from all indications, it will be a successful one. Because of the fact that only one other Dayton school had a grappling team, the Oakwood matmen participated in but one real meet, Although they lost by a very close score to Stivers, the Lumberjacks gave an excellent account of 'I themselves. A return engagement scheduled with this school failed to material- ize. Many enthusiastic boys received valuable coaching from Mr. Robertson, who worked untiringly with them throughout the year. Some interesting wrestling exhibitions were staged during the course of the season: there were matches between boys of all ages and sizes, beginning with seventh graders. At Oakwood only good clean amateur wrestling is taught, the professional style is being kept entirely out of the picture. For recreation and fun, wrestling is one of the best sports known: and there is no doubt about its keeping athletes in excellent physical shape. V ff J -Bl ' 30 Fifty th as F gTHE ACORNL 'AT ll33a1sllso1tlba1llll Coach: MR. MARSH UT of a schedule of eleven basketball games, Oakwood won seven vic- tories and suffered four defeats. The team started out like a whirlwind at the beginning of the season, winning the first five games. West Car- rollton broke the ice by handing the Lumberjacks their first defeat. Lebanon and Fairview were then defeated by Oakwood on successive weeks with identi- cal score resulting in each contest, Led by Slagle, who accounted for 20 points, Centerville easily downed the Lumberjacks the week following the Fairview combat. Oakwood played an excellent game against Fairmont, the Big Purple barely winning by a one- point margin after being rated heavy favorites, The final game of the regular season saw a complete reversal of form by the Lumberjacks with the result that Miamisburg scored an unexpected win. Oakwood was put out of the Regional Tournament in the first round by West Milton. However, the conquerors of Oakwood on this occasion then waded through both the Regional and District tournaments to enter the State Tournament.

The first game, with Dixie, was won by Oakwood, 28-7. ln the next game with Osborn, the girls met their Hrst defeat by a 14-8 score. During the Christmas holidays the team played the alumnae and won by the decisive score of 30 to 8. This was followed by a runaway victory for Oakwood over Germantown, with a 42-16 score. The next week, after an exciting game. the girls defeated Franklin 25-23. The next two games also proved to be ex- citing ones. ln the West Carrollton game, Oakwood lost by a score of 19 to 17: the next week we defeated Wapakoneta 19-18. The two succeeding games were losses for Oakwood: we were defeated by Highlands, 37-30 and by Center- ville 20-15. The most important game of the season, that with Fairmont, ended victoriously for Oakwood with an 18-13 score, Fairmont being out- classed in every department of the game by the Oakwood girls. The last game of the season was lost to Wapakoneta, 27-14. The total points accumulated by Oakwood at the end of the season was 216. Honors for individual scoring go to Marjorie Johnson, who made 108 points, and to Calista Riegel, who was second with 98. Jane Gray, Violet Manney, and Katherine Matthieu, who graduate this year, are deserving of a great deal of praise also for their splendid work on the team. Fifly fl A' 'i T H E A oo R Nix? i Junior High Basketball HE Junior High School court team did remarkably well this year con- sidering the fact that they were seldom able to obtain the use of the floor for practice. Although the season was not a success in the won column, it more than served its purpose by giving aspiring youngsters valuable experience. The opposition in their games was always furnished by another Junior High team. Oakwood always gave their opponents a real battle for every game, the team as a whole always fighting just as hard at the end of a game as at the beginning of one. Had our Junior High team not been handicapped by lack of practice many of the games might have ended differently. However, this condition will be remedied next year by the addition of the new school, which will house a large gymnasium. Undoubtedly many of the lads who played on this year's Junior High team will be contestants for next year's varsity squad. The experience gained by playing on the Junior High combination will be invaluable to those going out for the varsity team next year. F1 f ty-six THE ACORNEEQGVE if Vu x l X! l Junior High Girls? Basketball HE Junior High School girls' basketball team has shown excellent ability this year, Three games were played with teams from other schools. The first game, with Southern Hills, was easily taken by Oakwood, l3-4. In this game Elizabeth Flack made 5 out of 6 foul shots. In the second game, with West Carrollton, Oakwood was again victorious, this time by a 17-14 score. Margaret Ellis played an exceedingly line game and was responsible for I4 of the l7 points. The third game was a return engagement with West Car- rollton: this time the Oakwood girls were on the short end of an ll-9 score. Of the forwards, Sue Smith played the most outstanding game. Jane Stanley made a splendid jump center and shows promise for the future. Good guarding was displayed by Dorothy Coolidge, Doris Eitzgib- bons and Virgiania Huckins. The girls of this team will furnish some real competition for places on the varsity next year. QIi9 6 Fifty-seven CNQYT' THE ACORN lv 'Tfffi Track Coach: MR. COOK ACH year brings forth statements that this year's team has been the best in the history of the school, etc, but we believe that we can truth- fully say that Oakwood has never been represented by a finer track team. Mr. Cook has produced some mighty line track teams at Oakwood but the one this year is undoubtedly without a peer in the annals of Oakwood track history. The first big victory of the year was the State Indoor Championships for Class This meet was held at Cleveland, and many surprising marks were made by members of the Oakwood team. Perhaps the most outstanding mark was the leap of 5 feet HM inches made by Charles Corwin in the high jump event. Likewise the showings of Neal and Riegel were exceptionally good, The first outdoor meet of the season furnished a big surprise. Coming here favored to Walk away with an easy victory, Columbus East was vanquished by more than ten points. George Neal copped the shot put event with a heave of more than 47 feet. The next two meets, against Greenville and Miamisburg, were easy vic- tories. As the Acorn went to press, the Stivers Relays were being held. Oakwood's chances, for repeating their victories of previous years in the State Meet seemed to be exceptionally bright. Undoubtedly the one who deserves the credit for this year's excellent track team, is Mr. Cook. He has worked untiringly with the boys to accomplish results and have a successful season. As long as Mr, Cook is coach of an Oak- Wood track team, you may rest assured that Oakwood will be well represented with a team of excellent character. F fty ight f.THE AC0RNQQX.1CVi x I Junior High Track Coach: MR. MARSH OMPETING in numerous meets throughout the season, the Junior High track team proved to be one of high calibre. Quite a number of good marks were made by various members of the squad during the season. When the call is issued for candidates for next year's varsity track team the material developed this year will be right on hand. With a large number of the varsity team graduating this year, Mr. Marsh's Junior High team will form the nucleus of next year's varsity team. The Oakwood youngsters showed their heels to most of their opponents during the season. Perhaps the outstanding member of the team was 'I'ifTy Cook, son of the varsity coach. Tilly set some outstanding marks during the course of the season. At the beginning of the season, the Junior High lads vanquished the track teams representing Wilbur Wright and Greenville Junior High Schools. fi- . ad.

WAGSTAFP by . . l PTER a shaky start against Eaton in the first game of the season, Oakwood tb came back to defeat Osborn in a close contest by a 7 to 6 score. The next game with Fairmont was rained out, but the faculty was set back 4 by the Lumberjacks by a 9 to 7 score. 7 As the Acorn went to press, the three games mentioned above were the l only ones which had been played. The initial encounter with Eaton saw Oakwood lose by a 10 to 3 score. Several glaring weaknesses were found as the result of this contest. The Osborn I game found a much improved ball club as the Lumberjacks won in an extra I inning. Mr. Wagstaff had to develop new material at first base, in the outfield, and at the pitcher's box. Despite these handicaps, he succeeded remarkably well. Bobby Servis proved to be an excellent pitcher, and he may be counted l upon for next year. Next year's team will need refilling at several gaps, due to , graduation of several members this June. 4 i x 1 -alla 1 TVTA Sixty Charles Allen Herbert Bahl Hastings Baker Herbert Baker Elso Barghoorn Loren Berry Charles Black Robert Blank John Boyles Robert Bunn Charles Campbell James Connelly Robert Connelly Charles Corwin Clinton Courson Robert Daily Robert Ferneding Harriet Barton Ruth Brelsford Janet Cockerill Rosemary Cowden Linda Dill Betty Fitzgibbons Jane Fitzgibbons Dorothy Flack THE ACORNL W- II If O Association J.

As usual the season opened with the annual Fall Floor Show and Dance which drew a capacity crowd. A number of musical novelties were offered. The music was furnished by our own dance band, the Oakwood Melodymakers. now in its third season. That the dance band is constantly improving is indicated by the fact that it has played a number of engagements this year out- side of the school. These include three dances, a broadcast program from WSMK in the fall, programs at three of the downtown luncheon clubs, includ- ing the Civitan, Cooperative and Fellowship Clubs. The band also furnished the dinner music at the Americanization luncheon of the Civitan Club. The school band has enjoyed the best year of its history. Improved in both instrumentation and ability of the players, the band has made real progress toward concert band performance. As usual the band played for all of the football games, a few hockey and basketball games. the wrestling match. Physical Education Demonstration, one P.-T. A. meeting, Shafor Boulevard School Pet Show, every athletic assembly and one public concert at the Com- munity Chest Drive dinner at the Miami Hotel. At the time of this writing the band is hoping to enter the state band contest. The real event for the year will be the concert in the Spring Festival. The orchestra has twenty-eight players and also has shown considerable improvement in the quality of music performed this year. The orchestra played in the broadcast in the fall, at the Senior Class play in December, and the score of the opera The Chimes of Normandy in March. The orchestra acquitted itself in an admirable way in the performance of this somewhat difficult music. Other appearances for this year will include the score of the Spring Show, When Dreams Come True, the Spring Festival, and the Com- mencement. The Senior Chorus opened its season in the broadcast in November by a performance of a medly selection of melodies from the opera Martha by Flotow. The big event of the year for this group was the performance of the light opera The Chimes of Normandy by Planquette, in March: the performances were so successful that two invitations were received to repeat the Chimes down town. The performances were full of action, excellent climaxes, good acting and a lot of professional atmosphere. The Spring Show, When Dreams Come True is Oakwood's second venture in the performance of original musical comedy. The lyrics and libretto were written by Miss Stillwell and the music score by Mr. Gatwood. This year will see, in May, Oakwood's first attempt at anything like a Musical Festival type of program. In this event the music department will give a concert consisting of Band, Orchestra, and Choral music featuring the com- bined music groups from all grades in the Junior and Senior High School. lm 5 if Sixty five THE ACORN CI-HMES OF NORMANDY A LUCKY BREAKM ACORNQ T A Dramatic Art HE work in dramatic art includes speech training, character interpretation. and stage conventions, as well as the problems of stage setting, lighting, costuming, and make-up. In brief, the course stresses the practical aspects of Dramatic production. Twelfth-year students may elect dramatic art during either the first or second semester, as a semester's work in vocational guidance is required of all. This year for the first time eleventh-year students were permitted to elect dra- matic art, which increased the class enrollment each semester to more than thirty. During the class periods scenes from standard and contemporary drama were discussed and interpreted. The two public performances were: A Lucky Broak, a three-act comedy by Zelda Sears, on December 13: and Drums of Death, a mystery play by Howard Reed, on May 8. These were presented under the direction and supervision of Mr. Harsh. Those students taking part in A Lucky Break were: Rosemary Cowden, Frances Mangold, Mabel Gibson, Horace Huffman, Richard Wilcock, Jane Whitmer, Jane Rodgers, John Hubler, Paul Shawhan, John Olt, Mary Jane Schwinn, Milton Wagner, Mary Lenore Whyte, Nancy Worman, Betty May Nevin, Charles Black, Philip Crowl, and Robert Landis. ' Members of the cast of Drums of Death were: Evelyn O'Neill, Robert Daily, Janet Gunter, Cedric Donado, Irene Krouse, Calista Riegel, Janet Smith. Edmund Gravett, Marjorie Kilbourne, and Jack Moore. Suit: swan C' THE ACORNF 'TYR fi i I Debating and Public Speaking MONO the activities of this year's Public Speaking department were de- bates, devotionals, and oratorical contests. The department has progressed a great deal this year and many students have been given opportunity to participate in activities Oakwood held debates during the year with lVlcC1uffey High School of Oxford: Troy High School, Miamisburg, and Fairview. Three questions for debate were employed during the yearg these were: Resolved That Chain Stores Are a Detriment to the Community, Resolved That the State of Ohio Should Adopt Some Plan of Unemployment lnsurance, and Resolved That the Eighteenth Amendment Should Be Repealed. The following pupils represented Oakwood in these debates: Apostolos Zonars, George Huff- man, Paul Shawhan, Janet Cockerill, Anna Baker, Fred Weaver, Robert Harsh, Elaine Hart, Harriet Barton, Marjorie Johnson, Herbert Bahl, and Mary Ellen Schumacher. Quite a few Oakwood students entered the Prince of Peace Declamation Contest this year. Fred Weaver, Paul Shawhan, and Elaine Hart were winners in the contests held at their respective churches: Fred Weaver won the district contest. Two Oakwood seniors, Paul Shawhan and Richard Wilcock, repre- sented the school in the Shakespearean Reading Contest held at Ohio Wesleyan University this spring. -All ' Q 101 S ty-eight QXAKTHE ACORN QQ CT Journalism EMBERS of the Journalism class, composed of juniors and seniors, are responsible for the publication of the school's bi-weekly paper, The Oak Leaf. In addition to the preparation of news articles, editorials. athletic write-ups, and special columns for the paper, members of the class are given work in the fundamentals of journalism: newspaper ethics, the classifica- tion of material, the editing of copy, writing of headlines, etc., are taughtt. A staff is elected by the members of the class to be responsible for the various departments of the publication of the paper. A sales manager is re- sponsible for the subscription campaign: this year there were about 360 sub- scribers to the Oak Leaf. An advertising manager sells the advertising space in the paper, the revenue from which helps to defray the expenses of linotyping The editor-in-chief is responsible for the collection of all material for each issue. A new staff is chosen at the beginning of the second semester of each year. This year Charles Corwin and James Connelly served as editors-in-chief, Dan Prugh was sales manager, and Peirce Wood and Charles Shuey sold advertising. Exceptional work in sports writing was done by Loren Berry. Others who con- tributed to the Oak Leaf throughout the year were: Jane Ditzel, Jean Hodgson, Harry Wilkerson, James Jones, Richard Ragar, William Eckert, Robert Landis, Philip Crowl, John I-Iubler, and Clinton Courson. The class was under the supervision of Miss Smith. ' Lafax -some snags: l Yi N 'r I F 1: U s 8 A 'THE ACSORN W3 A Calendar fwlnth apologies to Mz'lt Grossj De 8th from Saptamber Hock Ye!

League HE formation of the Girls' League at Oakwood High School this year, under the direction of Miss Lou Weber, came as a result of the realization of the need for an organization for girls in which they could become better acquainted with each other, and where there could develop a closer rela- tionship between the girls and the women teachers. ln addition, it offers an X, opportunity for development of talent and character. Every girl in the school is eligible to membership in the League: meetings are held every two weeks. The meetings of the League are usually featured by musical selections and speakers, Among the speakers who have addressed the organization this year are: Miss Anna Bird Stewart, Mrs. Jane B. Marlay, and Judge Robert R. Nevin. All programs and activities of the League are planned by the various committees, the membership of which is made up of girls from each year. The first big project undertaken by the organization during the year was the Christmas party and entertainment given for several pupils from the Gorman School for Crippled Children. This spring the League had a tea and entertain- ment for the mothers of the members. Two of the mothers, Mrs. Horace Huff- man and Mrs. Alexander Reed, were among the speakers on this occasion.
