F. Alford. Homeroom activities were many and varied: during the first part of the week, Mr. Alford devoted his period to informal talks on school spirit, community life, and the desirability of concentration: Fridays were reserved for Bible readings. lust as Oakwood can never forget S-15, so S-l5 can never forget Mr. Alford. Four years ago the girls of S-13 were greeted by a new homeroom adviser, Miss Iosephine Auld, who soon proved that she could manage them capably in spite of her small size. They thoroughly enjoyed her read- ing of Seventeenth Summer and Starling of the White House. Parliamentary law was laboriously explained. At their Christmas party the girls exchanged gifts among them- selves and filled baskets with food and cloth- ing for an unfortunate family. Despite the unlucky number, S-13 is still tops. Early on a fall morning in 1940, a group of eager young students filed into I-3 to meet their new homeroom teacher. ln the spring of 1947 the same group left the presence of that same teacher, Oakwood's mathematical wizard, Earl Marsh. Mr. Marsh has guided his group through all its high school activities with a minimum of fuss, a task which would have broken a lesser man within a month. All through their high school years the girls of S-ll have been guided by our librar- ian, Miss Steindorf, whose good advice and interesting programs have helped to make the years enjoyable. The outstanding event every year has been the Christmas party with an exchange of gifts and preparation of baskets for the needy. The senior year's biggest proj- ect was packing boxes of clothing and food to send to the unfortunate families of Greece.

Hard-working officers of the class of 1947 have served us well during the past year, each in his own particular way. President Ildon Livingston has held sway over numerous turbulent class meetings and presented our case to school officials with a fervor born of his dynamic delivery and force- ful gesticulations. The commencement proceedings and technicalities have been explained to us by our garrulous vice-president, Chad Graham. GEORGE BYRON ZONARS ami Tests 2, 3. Secretary Iulie Dye has solved many knotty problems about graduation announce- ment technique in an Emily Postish manner. Silver-tongued Hank Breidenbach has somehow managed to extract enough money in dues to put on the best prom in the history of the school and purchase a beautiful class gift All in all, our class officers have served us well and represented us on every front. And why not? We elected them. G- M.. 'Cu g . -. ' - - . .. Iulie Dye. Sec.: Chad Graham. Vice-Pres.: lldon Livingston, Pres.: Hank Breiden- bach, Treas.

First row: Ward, B. Geiler, Web ber, Yoder, Maier. Kennedy, M Williams, Kleinhenz. THE STUDENT ASSOCIATION To familiarize students with self-govern- ment and democratic living, most modern secondary schools provide some form of stu- dent government. At Oakwood, the entire student body comprises the Oakwood Student Association. The O.S.A. elects twelve student council members and four officers each sem- ester. First semester officers this year were lack Ward, president: Glenn Walters, vice- presidentp Betty Geiler, secretary: and Tony Mantia, treasurer. Second semester officers , X. lack Ward-O. S. A. President were Iack Ward, president: Glenn Walters, vice-president: Betty Geiler, secretary: and Virginia Cornish, treasurer. Mr. Lewis replaced Captain Brown as faculty advisor this year. The council's first act was to appoint stu- dents to supervise the cafeteria and lunch line during the noon hour. The appointees were lim Buchanan, Bob Klein, and Tom Wells, with whose help much unnecessary confusion was avoided. Another council task was selling season tickets for the football and basketball games. Urged on by Faculty Manager Ed Bigelow, the council members hawked their wares with vigor and dispatch and racked up an impos- ing sales record. Spectators at the Oakwood football games were greeted by the sight of councilmen and their assistants peddling programs. These lit- erary masterpieces, decorated with art work by Hay Spiller, sold like hot cakes: the pro- ceeds went to the fund for the purchase of a new electric scoreboard for the athletic field. The annual O.S.A. Hallowe'en Party, held on October 31, was a smashing success. After weeks of crafty plotting, the door prize committee - G. B. Price, Marilyn Smith, Gretchen Kennedy, and Mary VVilliams-ar- ranged that the startled winners should be presented with tiny kittens. The entire council O. S. A. COUNCIL Second Semester Second row: Mr. Lewis. Weller. Maier, Neumeister, Ha einer. Webber, Burke. First row: I. Price, DeMarse, V Cornish, Ward, B. Geiler, Wal ters, Stork. m -. KEEPS THE WHEELS TURNING helped decorate the gym, and G. B. Price headed the refreshment committee, which, tra- ditionally, served cider and doughnuts. Bruce Stutson and Ierry Gurnick had charge of the tickets, and Betty Kleinhenz and Virginia Web- ber handled the publicity. In spite of rainy weather for the night of the party, the crowd was dense. The council also appointed the cheer- leaders, who were to be seen at every game, leading the crowd in noisy yells for the moral support of the team. Head cheerleaders were Kelsey Marechal and Dave Tate, both veter- ans of three years behind the megaphones. Other cheerleaders were Ioan Schadel, Nancy Nutt, Marilyn Smith, and snappy little Ben Hur. A group of junior girls did the cheer- leading for the reserve team's basketball games. These were Lida Whitesel, Chris Davis, Gretchen Kennedy, Ioan DeMarse, Iulie Zimmerman, Ruth Iohnson, and Marcia Heid. The council appointed Chuck Huber and Helen Wills chairmen of the senior and junior high Community Chest and Pied Cross Drives. Under the leadership of these two students, Oakwood came through with flying colors in both campaigns. In the senior high assembly on March 5, Helen Maier, acting for the student council and the O.S.A., presented Mr. Lewis with a new service flag and a matching American flag to be hung in the auditorium in honor of Oakwood students who died in World Vxlar ll. The band concerts, presented during the second semester, were given a helping hand by council members, who aided in the sale of tickets in the senior high. And so the Oakwood Student Association, represented by the student council, brought to a successful conclusion another crowded and active year of service and accomplish- merit. Mr. Lewis, Helen Maier and Martha Weller display the new service flag. GIRLS LEAGUE COUNCIL First row: I. Smith. P. Light, I. Wurtz. Second row: W. Webb. K. Koehring, D. Lenning, M. Cornish, S. Tomlinson, C. Davis. GIRLS KEEP CHUGGIN' ALONG Girls' League, of which almost every girl in the senior high school is a member, puffed into the station at the end of the year with a whole carload of good accomplishments be- hind it. First on the schedule was a party on September 17 to acquaint the new members with the actives. Pantomimes, heading the entertainment, sharpened wits and provided a good chuckle. The result of the girls' desire for original and new programs was the Chit Chat in November. At the Chit Chat, along with play- ing bridge and other games, the latest news and fashion notes were exchanged. The first party proved so successful that in Ianuary another session was held. Although Mrs. Thomas D. Brown, Ir., fac- ulty adviser, was ill for the annual Christmas dinner, the committees and officers-Dottie Lenning, president: Chris Davis, vice-president, and Janie Wurtz, secretary-worked to com- bine a turkey dinner and a skit presentation of Why the Chimes Rang into a perfect Yuletide party. As all mothers enjoy a friendly afternoon tea, the girls gave one for their mothers on March l8 in the library. Preceding the tea was an amateur show. Bringing up the rear of our train parading the year's activities came the big sister party on April 22 and the junior-senior farewell on May 23. Then the train passed out of sight, leaving a feeling of a job well done behind it. l 1 V Senior girls exchange the latest news at Chit-Chat. if Charles Huber, Chairman of Red Cross and Community Chest Drives. CONDUCTORS OF GOOD WILL The annual Community Chest Drive, con- ducted during October, was headed by Chuck Huber in the senior high and by Helen Wills in the junior high. The student body, recog- nizing the importance of the Community Chest's work, contributed generously. The president of the Montgomery County Chapter of the American Iunior Red Cross this year was an Oakwood senior, Chuck Huber. When the Red Cross Drive began in March, the students were shown a movie which de- picted the work of the Bed Cross throughout the world. The response to the organizations appeal for financial aid was prompt and lib- eral, as usual, with Chuck Huber and Helen Wills again heading the campaigns in the senior and junior high schools. The junior high drive was sponsored by Mrs. Emma Bongartz. Student participation in community proj- ects like these is encouraged by the school. for they help the pupils to understand social problems and development. Carol Ruckqaber and Margie Owen bring Christmas Cheer to the needy. Cinnie Smith, Bonnie Herby, and Ann McDorman make Christmas trees for the Red Cross. .'

THE ACCRN STAFF Work began on the 1947 Acorn as soon as school opened in the fall. The first prob- lems were the selection of a theme and the appointment of the staff. When the co-editors, Chad Graham and Kelsey Marechal, had out- lined the overall plan of the book, work began in earnest. Martha Weller, in charge of the senior section, Worked With infinite patience to get all the senior pictures taken and activity rec- ords completed, While Sally Brunn handled the class section. Elizabeth Wiese put in long hours juggling the layouts for her faculty section, and Iudy Griswold as circulation manager eagerly counted over the sales re- ceipts. Ioey Smith and her assistants Worked feverishly to assemble a mass of facts, fig- ures, and pictures into an attractive activities section. Bob Smith constructed the impressive feature pages, and lim Mee and Kathryn Koehring handled the boys' and girls' sports divisions. Iohn Williams and Carol Bausch had charge of the art work with Miss Lou K. Weber as art advisor. Clare Hollister had the unpleasant task of figuring the number of lines of copy necessary to fill a given space. Stenography chairman Nancy DeCamp spent a hectic few Weeks in late March as she worked desperately to complete the copy on schedule. Babs Rauch balanced the books, while Gloria Gould and Bob Wilson provided the funds to balance them by buttonholing pros- pective patrons. Bob Smith and Kelsey Marechal planned the skit which started the sales campaign off with a bang. Bob Smith also came up with the Acorn king and queen contest to promote sales. In spite of skepticism on the part of some staff members, the scheme Worked out satisfac- torily. Special praise goes to Miss Mildred A. Campbell, faculty advisor, who has been to the Acorn what the staff was to Moses. With- out her untiring efforts, the Acorn could never have reached publication. The entire staff would like to take this opportunity to congratulate itself on a good year's work Well done. Quill and Scroll, honorary journalistic society, continued its Work this year under the direction of Miss Campbell. Three new mem- bers were enrolled at the beginning of the year, and three others were initiated later in the year With an impressive candlelight serv- ice. A group picnic concluded the year's activities.

A familiar sound in the halls every seventh period Was the band diligently practicing for a football game or concert. Tom Varble was elected president of the band for the 1946-47 season. Other officers Were Ted Eichelberger, Vice-president, and Iohn Snyder, secretary-treasurer. The chief activity of the band during the fall was entertaining the football crowds at half-time with various intricate formations and many Well-played tunes. Attention often cen- tered on the three flashy drum rnajorettes- Donna Leupold, Marcia Van Blon, and Iean Woodford-who made their first year with the band cz tremendous success. The girls were trained in the art of fancy baton-twirling by George Leupold. Later in the year our band joined With other bands from this region to participate in the Montgomery County Fair. Spectators at the Armisice Day Parade also heard and saw the organization in action. The group attended the annual band festi- val held at Celina, Ohio, on May 9, during National Music Week. This is a yearly excursion for the band, Whose members in- variably have a wonderful time and turn in a creditable performance. Third row: Conrad, Spanogle, Neumeister, E. Woodford, I.

Selections of well-known composers were played, and the girls' choir and the orchestra also participated. The concerts were highly successful and will probably become yearly events. The Oakwood Girls' Choir, composed ot thirty-five senior high school students, had an active year. During the Christmas season it appeared on Bike's Soda Set Program, at the Ohio State Hospital, at the Veterans' Admin- istration, and at Brown Hospital. The girls also took part in the band concert on March 8. The choir is directed by Phil Gates and ex- pertly accompanied by Helen Maier. Six girls from the choir composed a sextet which sang at various churches and on Rike's Soda Set program. Members of the group were Marilyn Smith, Marilyn Yoder, Nancy Nutt, Dottie Lenning, Kathryn Koehring, and Mary lane Wills. Although forced to practice after school, the orchestra assisted capably in the band concert, the junior and senior plays, and the Oakwood Follies. Oakwood's music department was well- represented in the Dayton District Music Contest held February 28 ot Westminster Presbyterian Church. Superior ratings were won by three students and excellent ratings by tive others. Nine students also won ex- cellent ratings at the district contest at Oxford. Third row: Varble, I.

Pieconversion Was the cry in the Lumberjacks' camp as it was all over the country. Only three veterans from last year-Iack Graef and Bill Cass, both first- stringers for the two previous campaigns, and junior Bart Mantia-Were on hand in August for Coach Sam Andrews and Assistant Coach Mac Huminon to use in building a Winning ball club. Three juniors and eight seniors formed the starting eleven when the first game rolled around. On the line, Bo Polk teamed with Bill Cass to provide a pair of fleet-footed ends while Bob Myers and G.

Hobart Ingle and Iack Ward caused the opposition considerable worry from the guard slots, and Iim Buchanan, place-kicking specialist, worked in the pivot position. Later in the year Iack Rogge returned from the Navy to take over the left guard job. Behind this forward wall, a quartet of speedy, tricks backs-Iack Graef, broken field artist at right half: Bart Mantia, triple- threat left half: Iack Nash, T formation quar- terback: and Dick Miller, hard-running fullback -moved with clock-like precision.

Both Bart Mantia and lack Graef crossed the goal line to upset the Stivers' applecart with a 12-6 victory. Under the new lights at the Oakwood field, Cincinnati-Plainville tried its luck at downing the Blue and Gold, but was turned back with a decisive 20-0 beating. Hillsboro was next to invade the lacks' home grounds, and was promptly routed 48-18. All fifty members of the Oakwood team saw action in this fracas, since the starting squad spent the second half on the bench. For the first time in the '46 season, Oak- wood hit the road to take on the Buccaneers at Xenia. Undoubtedly the toughest team the Iacks had faced, the Bucs fought all the way but were finally subdued, 12-6. Bo Polk's blocked punt recovery produced the touch- down that saved the day. Lebanon furnished the opposition for the Oakwood eleven as the season reached the halfway point. Graef, Bart Mantia, Johnson, Miller, Nash, and Tony Mantia shared the scoring honors as the Warriors fell, 39-12. ln a rough-and-tumble contest, the Roose- velt Teddies found the Lumberjacks' axe too sharp as they lost out by a 6-2 count. Boasting a six game winning streak, the Blue and Gold moved into Wilmington to meet the champs of the Southwestern Conference.

Putting its undefeated season on the block, Oakwood invaded the Dragons' stronghold at Lima Central. Although the Iacks never stopped fighting, the Lima buzz-saw rolled relentlessly on to a 54-6 victory. Unable to hit the comeback trail in their final game, Oakwood dropped a 7-6 heart- breaker at Norwood. At the end of the regular season, the annual football banquet was held at the Wishing Well in Centerville. Ray Nolting, former pro back with the Chicago Bears and present coach of the Cincinnati Bearcats, was the guest speaker. Coach Andrews afterward presented letters and miniature footballs to the following: Captain lack Graef, Bill Cass, Bob Myers, G. B. Price, Iack Bogge, lack Ward, lim Mee, lack Matthews, Hobart Ingle, lack Nash, Dick Miller, and Hank Breidenbach, Stevens. Walters, Graham seniors: Bart Mantia, Tony Mantia, Iim Buchan- an, Bo Polk, and Ted Floridis, juniors: and Dick Iohnson, sophomore. Managers' letters went to Chad Graham, Glenn Walters, and Alex Stevens. lack Graef was elected most valuable player and Bill Cass was chosen honorary captain. In a poll conducted by the Iournal- Herald, Hobart Ingle was selected first-string guard on the all-city team, and lack Graef and G. B. Price were second-string halfback and tackle. Word has been received at the Oakwood camp that the Lumberjacks will be playing in the Miami Valley League a year from next season and that our traditional foe, Fairmont. will appear on the schedule. High hopes are held for another top-notch season next year. Floridis. Breidenbach, Ward. T. ltllantia Il :x5hW sn A U Q If ' ' , '73 xx! ' ,QC . .. ,V , s ,' N' i ' I OQI5' w Ntf .' 'Q A .-Mn Lx.

Returning squadsmen included such stalwarts as Don Munch, Dick Miller, lim Buchanan, and Bo Polk. After dropping the first tilt Oakwood picked up steam, and Springfield Catholic became the first victim of the '46-'47 season. From then on throughout the following eleven frays the blue and gold clad cagers fought hard and, although losing several contests, overcame such formidable opponents as Chaminade, Kiser, Parker, Newport, and our own Alumni who, naturally enough, can al- ways be counted on for a good scrap. Captain Don Munch, a senior who played his third season of high school basketball this year, racked up an impressive total of 165 points in the thirteen game schedule. Close behind him were sophomore Dick Iohnson with 87 talleys and junior classman Bo Polk. Munch particularly starred in the Charn- inade tussle. Chaminade, long Oakwood's unofficial rival, had tied up the game with not more than ten seconds to go.

When play began again Don took an excellent pass from fellow senior Dick Miller and rang up two points with a likewise excellent bunny shot. As he was fouled on the play, Don tried and swished in a foul shot for one point insurance and thus the game ended Oakwood 40, Chaminade 37. Previously in the season Munch had shown his skill by racking up sixteen points in the hard-fought Newport, Kentucky, fray. In the annual junior-senior game the sen- iors overcame the underclassmen as Dick Miller sank baskets totalling 22 points. The game ended in an overtime with senior talleys equalling 58 to the juniors 54. Veteran seniors, Keenan, Munch, Miller, Zonars, and Price: junior classmen, Polk and Buchanan: and sophomores, Iohnson and Rambo, make up the much honored group of nine 'lack cagers who by their excellent play earned for themselves a '47 basketball letter. With this season's record in the books, Coach Sam Andrews and the student body look forward to a highly successful season next year when a fine squad of returning sophomores, who played quite a bit this year as a unit, and juniors like Bo Polk and lim Buchanan return.

The regular season was a race between the Honkers, the Hobblers, and the Wonders. At the end of the nine game season the Honkers and the Hobblers were tied. Then followed the tournament. At the end of the quarter finals the remaining teams were the Honkers, the Vlahos, the Hobblers, and the Atomic Kids. The Honkers eliminated the Vlahos and the Hobblers defeated the Atomic Kids. The final game between the Honkers and Hobblers was close all the way with the Honkers finally coming out on top by a 35 to 24 score.

After the Chaminade contest will be matches with Wilbur Wright, Fairmont, Fairview, and Stivers. After the regular season ends, the team will enter the district tournament, the site of which has not yet been determined. The team Winning the district tournament will go to the state tour- nament in Columbus. Since the present squad has only two sen- iors, eight team members will be back next year to form the nucleus of another squad. Coach McGowan also expects a good crop of freshmen to turn out next spring. GOLF Dave Rambo. George Zonars, Dick Riecken. Coach McGowan, Ed. Schneider, Gil Smith. When Coach Mac Hummon called for try- outs for the 1947 tennis squad, the largest group in the school's history reported. With five re- turning lettermen-Bill Cass, lack Graef, lack Keenan, Don Mudd, and Pete Mullin-the lacks hope to repeat last year's feat of becoming city champs. The team has been strengthened by the arrival of several promising sophomore recruits, including Blitz Creager, Iim Sagebiel, Bruce Stutson, Iack Stockum, and Logan Burke. Two other seniors, lack Matthews and Hobie Ingle, will round out the squad. The team faces a tough schedule, which includes matches with such outstanding teams as Fairmont, Middletown, and Miamisburg, so that the going will be far from easy as the season progresses. Never before has the outlook for a cham- pionship squad been so promising, and the Acorn joins with the student body in expressing high hopes for an undefeated tennis team this season. With so many outstanding players and such expert coaching, such hopes are not likely to prove ill-founded in the coming season. TENNIS Third row: Leakcls, Sagebiel T. Creager. Stutson, Burke.

Their lone win came at the expense of Xenia Iunior High, 6-O while their losses were to Osborn, 7-6: McKinley, 18-O: Northridge, 20-7: and Franklin, l4-O. This year's team featured a quartet of hard running backs-Gene Folkerth, Taki Anagnostan. Bob Morris, and Brother Stumm-plus a hard charging line. Despite this year's unlucky record the fresh- men should furnish next year's varsity with some sturdy material.

The season opened with a night game, the first night hockey contest in Oakwood's history, in which the Iills defeated the Antioch College team. In the next two weeks victories were scored over Fairmont and Fairview. In another night game, Oakwood out- scored the University ot Cincinnati squad, and a few days later edged Fairmont in a return game.

The Iills won a return game from Fairview November 5, and four days later swamped Western College. Western lost again in a return contest. With a record behind them and playing their hardest game of the year, the Iills lost to a powerful University of Cincinnati eleven, the first Oakwood hockey defeat in seven years. The loss was hard to take, but the team congratulated the fine Cincy players and hoped for better luck next year.

The Iills pictured above were the first team for this year. After much hard practice and many laps around the track they came out as the top eleven. Backed up by our never-failing goalie Willsey, the team crushed almost all oppon- ents. Brightening the field were the titian- haired beauties, Anne Focke, Helen Focke, and Marilyn Smith. Anne is also remembered for her big spill in the mud at Cincy, and Smitty for her embarrassing moments there. Three cheers for Helen and her timely goal, which broke the tie in the Fairmont game. Poor Nutty and Betty were always calling for the ball, but when they got it they really carried it down. And then there was Spilly always trying to make a goal: she should get E for effort anyway. Speaking of trying to make goals, even our determined fullbacks tried, especially Wisey: but something always got in the way-usually the other team. Another cheer goes to the center forward, Mary Frances. She was high-point girl of the season, scoring l6 points. Remember our faithful inner Dottie, who always pepped up the game with witty remarks? The other inner was DeDe, the only junior on the first team. We were mighty proud of her and hope she will keep up the good work next year. All together they make the first string varsity, a grand bunch of girls who worked and played together. On the hockey field they learned teamwork and the high ideals of sportsmanship. To Hayner, our swell coach, we want to say thanks-thanks for her fine coaching, her understanding, her patience. She's always ready to help or to have fun: she's just a plain good sport all around. Thanks, Hayner, for a fine hockey season in '46. Coach Hayner A W':E'fFg Upper: Iudy and Sally Center: Kay-Kay and Yodie Lower: Nutty, Betty, cmd Willsey. Wisey, Spilly and Dottie Unusual events have highlighted this year's season. The departing seniors can look back to a schedule full ot entertaining and memorable hap- penings. First of all, who would have thought that Life would visit Oakwood? But that is just what hap- pened this year when Hank Walker, Life staff photographer, came to the school on November 12 and 13. The entire student body was in a state of extreme excitement, especially the hockey girls as they posed on the field for the cameraman. Of course, the pictures haven't been published yet, but it was an honor nevertheless. The varsity also got local publicity when reporters came out tor inter- views, and when Banny Daley talked with members of the first team on Bike's Soda Set Program one Saturday. 72 Upper: Helen, Smitty, and Ann. Lower: Cynt. Lulu, and Nancy. Another important event for the seniors was their overnight trip to Cin- cinnati. The original purpose of the journey was a game With U. C., but when the contest was called oft be- cause of rain, the team and Coach Hayner went anyway, just for the ex- perience. And quite a time they had, what with getting lost in one-way streets, dining at the Netherlands Plaza, and eating a midnight snack. Taken all in all, it was a wonder- ful year. The seniors are sorry it had to end and will always remember the experiences and activities which made it uniorgettable for them. 2 H f, 7:4 -.ifzr-.-la: .

Fairview Game The games were exciting, the trips were fun, cmd the season ended traditionally with the junior-senior game followed by the annual hockey banquet. Following another tradition, the seniors played the junior-senior game to a 2-2 tie. The banquet, held in the school library, was a sad affair for the seniors, since it was their good-bye to hockey at Oakwood. To offset the atmosphere of gloom, the table was gaily decorated with place cards made to re- semble the cover of Life magazine, with a hockey player featured on the cover. In the Center of the tables were three miniature hockey fields, complete with stick-figure play- ers. Marilyn Smith furnished the decorations. The senior mothers provided an excellent meal, and Nancy Nutt and Mary Iane Wills, co-captains, acted as toastmasters. Liz Iones and Frannie Smith spoke about their former hockey days, and DeDe DeMarse and Mary Iane Chenoweth gave short farewells to the seniors on behalf of their classes. Coach Hayner awarded hockey letters to outstanding players, fifteen miniature hockey balls to the first team and four other seniors, and three gold hockey sticks to third year letter winners. The girls gave their coach a lace tablecloth and napkins. Thus ended the 1946 hockey season. All indications point to another winning season for Oakwood next year. Coach Hay- ner has a large group of experienced players in the class of '48, and several likely candi- dates from the class of '49. With their help, the Iills are expected to carry on the Oakwood tradition of sportsmanlike victories and few defeats. Varsity substitutes take time out for fun. i Wx 1 .Jn t. x tg 'X N, y-.ij 'I .'

Coached by Miss Iosephine Auld, the mighty mites from the ninth grade displayed plenty of tire and vigor in games and practice sessions. In the year's first contest, the junior Iills met Fairview. ln a hard-fought game, Oak- wood racked up three points to FairvieW's one, getting the season off to an auspicious .start. Lois Kraft, outstanding center forward. scored two of Oakwood's points, and Sally Coleman, playing inner, accounted for the other. In the second string game, the contest- ants battled to ct scoreless tie. The other fray was with Oakwood's tra- ditional rival, Fairmont. Lois Kraft starred again by making three goals, and Nell McGary scored another to make the final count 4-0. In the second string game, Oak- wood emerged victorious again by a four point margin. Miss Auld gives pointers to Carolyn Cass and Marilyn Sargent. The veterans of this year's junior high games should furnish promising material for the varsity team in the next three years, and this year's eighth grade squad is ready and willing to take over the junior high hockey leadership next year.

The season began immediately after Christmas vacation, when many of the girls signed up to partici- pate in the tournaments. The senior high gym was a beehive of activity after school during the tournament playoffs. The senior class displayed a greater inter- est in winter sports this year than in the past, as several senior teams showed great activity. In the gym classes Sally and Ioan were often seen playing against Durtzo and Dottie, while DeDe and Chris Anne F. and Spilly took on Helen F. and Cynt N. Mary Frances, Kay-Kay, BeBe, Sally, Ioan, Helen, and Anne were often out after school practicing with juniors Chris and DeDe and sophomores, Dolores May, Susie Huber, Susie Geiler, and Margie Cornish. Tournaments were held for singles and doubles in both badminton and ping-pong. Tournament results were eagerly awaited by all contestants as they waited to find out their next opponents. As the Acorn goes to press, final winners have not been determined. ' Dottie and Iudy ' Sally and Ioan, one of the outstanding senior high doubles teams. pose for the camera after a fast practice session. JUNIOR HIGH TOURN AMEN TS The junior high girls entered whole- heartedly into their winter sports, spending long hours in diligent practice. The ping-pong balls and badminton birds flew so hard and fast that the junior high tournament was over before the senior high players got fairly started. With so many enthusiastic players, future competition will be stiffer than ever before. Topping the junior high players are the ninth-grade champions, Marilyn Sargent and Mary Bimm, in badminton and ping-pong, re- spectively. Freshman competition was un- D'Ann and Shirley Mary Lloyd usually tough this year, so the winners deserve high praise. Emerging Victorious from the vigorous eighth-grade tournament were D'Anne Mc- Henry in badminton and Shirley Stork in ping-pong. Star seventh grade player is Mary Lloyd Hunting, who Won in ping-pong and reached the finals in badminton. She was edged out in the last game by Norma Slack. ln accordance with Oakwood's policy, all girls are encouraged to participate in extra- curricular athletics. Mary and Marilyn Lelt: Sally Heathman Helen Focke Dottie Lenning Right: Virginia Wise Nancy Nutt loAnne DeMarse After getting an early start for practice this year, the tennis team is well prepared to meet its first opponents, and the prospects for this season look good. There are seven girls who won letters last year returning to this year's team. They are Helen Focke, Dottie Lenning, Nancy Nutt, Mari- lyn Smith, Virginia Wise, seniors: and IoAnne DeMarse and Salley Heathman, juniors. Other promising players are Ruthie Williams, a jun- ior: and three ambitious sophomores, Ianey Wurtz, Betsy Hunting, and Dolores May. Games are scheduled with Fairmont, Fair- view, Middletown, and Wittenberg College. With such fine players out on the courts the season should be successful.
