Then we,ll get out the various issues of On Ottawa and remember the best years of our lives. To be able to remember our school years, we've worked hard to produce this issue of On Ottawa . It is intended to help recall, in years to come, the members of the faculty, whom we shall probably appreciate more after we have left school, the classmates with whom- we associated daily, the thrills and ex- citement of the athletic contests,-the prom that seemed even more important. This book is about you, students, and for you. We hope that you will refer to your annual often and someday you will proudly say, Look, son, there's a picture of me and my gang. Those were the daysl' Mary Io Smith, Editor -2- DEDICATION H. O. NOW Mr. Now has upon occasion been called a perfectionist. In a way this is true. But he has always tried to perfect our unit of the school system, Ottawa Public, to make it the best of high schools. We, the class of 1951, do not yet realize how important his teachings have been to usg but we do realize that we lost a good friend along with a good school superintendent when he left early in March to go to Missouri. So we, the class of 1951, are not dedicating this volume of On Ottawa to Mr. Now, our school superintendent, but to Mr. Now, our friend. -3- TO REST IS NOT TO CONQUERD With twelve years of school behind us, the seniors decided that the motto To Rest Is Not To Conquer best seemed to express the results of our experiences. When we rested, we found that little was accomplished. It seems very appropriate that we select this motto in this world made up of a mixture of dawdling and progressive people. If each one of us actually use this motto as a 'guiding light' we certainly shall be classed with the latter, and such should be our goal. So long as people are striving to elevate them- selves, civilization will progress with them, but let them get content in a mt and the world will degenerate. So you can see that it takes a little work to even stay where you are. It is my hope that each of us seniors take this motto to heart. It is also my hope that each of you who read this will list this motto along with some of the others by which you are already being guided. Mary Anne Weisenberger Assistant Editor -4- IN MEMORIAM Most of us remember Bonnie Fenstermaker who was to have been graduated with the Class of 1951. However, during her sophomore year she died in a tragic Ere which also took the lives of her brother, jerry, and her sister, Lois. We remember Bonnie as a fun-loving, intel- ligent girl, who was always ready to laugh, but could get very serious at the right times. She was a good student and had many friends. Thus, we are dedicating this page to her, our friend and classmate. . -5.. A --H WL 4 U 46' fa 4 -f WEST BUILDING X, ' u -gud ig sg: ,E Q wigs, ws K' ,d g GYMNASIUM - AUDITORIUM - 5 ..

TONER ALBERT SCHUMACHER The class of 1951 wishes to express its sincere thanks to the Board of Edu- cation for their careful attention to our needs. They help the school constantly. They found for us, in the time of our need, a new teacher to take the place of our former superintendent and teacher, Mr. H. O. Now. They keep our buildings clean and warm. They buy the supplies needed for the school plant. Remember they do this without pay. They absorb the community's complaints for us. In the days to come when we, the senior class and classes after us, are mature men and women, with the help of God, we will take our stand in striving for a bigger and better system of education, not only for our children, but for all children born to mankind.

Those living in the east attended the East Building while those in the west, went to the West Building. There are only 7 members of the class who have gone to the Ottawa Public Schools for their 12 years. They are: Donna F undum, Doris Fought, Betty Hazelton, Carol Douglas, Mary Anne Weisenberger, John Schimmoller, and jack Schierloh. ' When the third year began, both groups were at the West Building. Our fourth and fifth grades were quite large, however, many later dropped out and moved away. Our sixth year of school started at the East Building where We were under the supervision of Miss Watterson, now Mrs. Helwick. Entering junior-high made us seem quite grown up. Our teacher was Miss Alta Thrapp. Our freshman year, long waited for, was a thrill to enter. Finally in high- school, we were able to choose our activities and subjects. The sophomore year started with our class trying to build up our treasury. Then we lost a school pal, Bonnie, when she died in a fire at her home. Of course, every junior year starts with everyone busy as bees. We presented our class play, The Girl With Two Faces , in November. Then we began work- ing on the prom in the spring of the year. The theme of our prom was Some Enchanted Eveningf, It was made to look like a walled garden with a border- ing brook. We were in the senior year now and were we excited. Individual graduation pictures were taken. We presented our class play It,s A Date on December 8. Then work on the annual started with everyone participating. Two class projects, a bake sale and a paper drive, were undertaken to raise money for the class trip. Baccalaureate services were held May 27th at the Presbyterian Church. The next night we had our commencement exercises at the auditorium. These two events ended our school activities. -18.. CLASS PROPHECY May 28, 1961 Dear Shirley: Seems ages ago since we have seen each other. Come to think of it, ten years ago today, our class of 1951 was graduated. Remember Betty Hazelton, you probably know she got married. They sure have a nice little home near Clandorf. They also have four cute youngsters. Have you heard Dave Corels latest radio program? He is over station W.F.R. You know, I think he will be the next Frankie Laine. Oh, how I love to hear that guy sing. No, Mary Io Smith doesn't own any lumber-yards anymore. She sold them all and decided to become a nurse. She is working out West someplace for Doctor Wishbar . Donna F undum looked me up when she was in Ottawa the other day. Gee, I was surprised to see her. She sure has changed. She is working as a secretarial nurse for a doctor in California. Long ways from home, isn't she? You know, I havenlt seen Lowell Perkey for some time. The last I heard though, he was working in the Chevrolet garage. He also has a great hobby in racing. He owns his own midget autos. He probably will be down your way someday. He travels all over the world. Did you say Mary Anne Weisenberger was getting married? I heard she was quite a famous wrestler. I haven't seen her for a long time. Do you know where she is going to live? I received a letter from Doris Fought the other day. She tells me she is still busy deciding what other brides should wear, hoping her time will come soon. She still loves playing the piano and is still playing for a lot of the famous weddings. Oh, yes, jack Schierloh just lives a couple of blocks from me. He is now Pres- ident of the National Bank, and he still has his love for money. Martha Pargeon now lives in Findlay, Ohio. She and her husband own several restaurants. We drop in and see them every now and then. The latest restaurant has been called Marti's Place . I read an advertisement in the paper pertaining to Charles McClure. It read like this-Do You Want Your Home Designed? If so, please contact Charles Mc- Clure, the most famous Interior Decorator in the world. I haven't heard or seen him since we graduated, but, he must really be going places. No, Shirley, I haven't seen Carol Douglas for almost a year. She has gone in for the modern business in a big way. They say she types 150 words a minute and takes dictation faster than the boss can speak the words. I just knew Carol would be a great success. Iack tells me Iohnny Schimmoller is still in the Navy. He said john torpedoed 15 enemy ships during the last war, and for that he was promoted to Captain. How are you making out as President of the Nursing School? Did you say you were instructing 150 student nurses? Gee, that is wonderful. Thank you for the invitation to come to Florida to meet your family. I hope I will be able to make it real soon. Yep, Shirley, I have finally hooked a man. He is the cutest guy you've ever seen. We have the sweetest little house in Ottawa. We were married in Feb., but we couldnlt have our honeymoon until his vacation in Iune, so we may see you all then. Well, I expect to hear from you real soon.

In the months preceding the prom, the seniors tried hard to guess our theme. They would walk into our room while we were having a meeting or else they just accidentally stayed after school while we were making flowers. The juniors, how- ever, kept their secret pretty well until the invitations were sent out. They gave our theme away because they had a little Dutch boy and girl on them. Yes, the juniors had chosen the Dutch theme. After many weeks of planning, ordering our invitations and favors, the big night arrived. Though it was not one of those balmy, spring evenings, one could not help but be excited. The dance started at 9:00 and the grand march began our wonderful evening. There were many ohs and abs as the couples walked onto the floor. The band was playing the theme song, The Little Dutch Mill. In front of the band was a wood- en shoe covered with flowers. The floor was divided by a lattice work decorated with yellow roses, the senior's class flower. The sky was a deep blue and the walls were a bright yellow. Pass- ing to the other side of the floor, the couples saw a huge wind- mill where the refreshments were served. On the table were memory books and wooden shoes filled with colorful tulips. The wonderful evening ended at 12:00, but the memory will always linger in our minds. -24- A Q F' ig X 'u 5 2 I . 22 QM n iw xi A , ,xii fnuga x y.. Y. : 'u.,1gjfE' Q.-rf,, 1's 5s 1 w.

We gained three, however, Audrey Carrick, Dorothy Neal, and Norbert Drum, but lost Audrey and Mary Lou before the year finished. Norbert Drum was chosen treasurer to fill Mary Lou's position. Cathern Radabaugh was elected secretary. Athletics, as well as other extra-curricular activities, was a part of our year's work. Bill Pope was one of the first five on the basketball team and also went out for baseball in the spring. Don Croy was on the track team and Annbeth Sommers was chosen varsity cheer- leader. Annbeth and Don were elected president and vice president, respectively, at the beginning of the term. We juniors were confronted with money problems as every preceding class had been. To solve these problems we sold pencils, hats, and emblems. Selling various greeting cards was another money-raising project. We received our class rings on October 20. What a wonderful day that was! We have never stopped admiring them. The junior-Senior Prom, held on May 11, was the result of honest, hard work. It was fun, though, working to please the seniors. We also sponsored a Halloween Assembly and a Thanksgiving Chapel. We wish to thank Miss Stauffer, our advisor, for the help she has given us throughout our wonderful junior year.

Nine of the boys were active members of the Hi-Y club and took part in all of its activities. Mr. Bell was our home room advisor, and was liked by all. We all enjoyed working with him very much.

This year of 1950-51 has proven a trying year for the new club. Mr. Now, the re-organizer of the club in Ottawa, has left us and our new advisor is Coach Wheaton. The strength of the club is now being tested. The Club played a very active part in the Christmas program. The Hi-Y fellows put up exterior Christmas decorations on the school building. They also sponsored a Christmas party. They had a good turn-out. The HiLY Club took on as a project the painting of the first grade room at the West School Building. In financing the club's activities this year, the members got together to take the school census. The purpose of the Hi-Y Club is to create, maintain and extend through-out the school and community, high standards of Christian character.

The girls' chorus of 1951 has done it again. Yes, again some part of our music department has gone to the state finals to bring back the rating of one. The girls' chorus did just that. We tender congratulations to the chorus and to Mr. Bell, our music teacher. This year the girls' sextets and chorus got around in this mean old world. In order for me to bring you up-to-date on this matter, I shall have to show you their schedule. The Hrst public performance was made by the girls' sextet at the Methodist church. At the P.T.A.

In the senior class, David Core came in at the beginning of the school year. David is the tenor with the golden voicev which you have undoubtedly heard. Iohn Schimmoller is the senior boy who entered the chorus in the middle of the year. When he entered the boys' chorus he formed the missing link which we needed for a quartet. From the freshman class, the new members we gained were john Howe and Ronnie Wilson. The two main activities of the boys chorus were the boys' quartet and solos of David Core. The foursome really went places this year. They were the one division of the boys, chorus that really stood out. The quartet singers were David Core, tenorg Iohn Schimmoller, second tenorg Bud Smith, leadg and john Howe, bass. At some of the places where these people sang, they were accom- panied by the chorus. Such a place was the Christmas program. The quartet sang spirituals, and the chorus sang Bells of Saint Mary,s . David Core also sang a solo on this program. March 23rd, the boys' quartet sang for the Missionary Youth Revival. April 6th, they sang a couple of numbers at the W.C.T.U. Party. David Core sang a solo there, also.

Linda had forgotten that she had promised to take care of some neighbor children until she was reminded by her girl friend, Nadine Wilson. Mrs. Rogers had seen an ad for baby- sitting jobs in the school paper. She suggested that the girls call and see if they could get someone to take their job for the night. Two girls, Kay Phillips and Ilka Marsh, came to see Valerie before she left for the dance. They found Linda was going to the dance with Austin Farrell and rushed to tell Austin's late girl friend, Diana Gordon. A short time before Austin and Jay arrived at the Roger's house, Diana came in with Kay and Ilka. When the boys did arrive Diana walked in with Kay and Ilka and walked off with Austin. The two baby-sitters turned out to be boys. They were Hal Montgomery and Buz Stevens. They had come to the Roger's house to tell Linda that Mrs. Herman had decided to stay home after all. This gave Linda and Nadine an idea. They hired Hal and Buz to take them to the dance. Linda also talked Hal into running for class president against Austin. Patsy Fisher and Shirley Yeats, members of the Dark Secret Club, helped Linda and Nadine make posters to get Hal elected class president. VVhen Austin apologized to Linda, she decided to support him. Linda also promised to go tothe next dance with him. The night of the dance Diana showed up at the Roger's house with Hal. When she thought Austin was going to be elected, she tried to get him to go with her. The two boys had a fight over whether Austin was going to take Linda. Linda refused to go with Austin and both Austin and Hal refused to take Diana. Hal was elected class president, and Queenie the maid, who had already furnished the comedy of the play, announced she was going to be married, much to the surprise of all.

STORY OF THE PLAY In a house on the Ohio River, Grandma Darris, Mrs. Helen Lester, Carlton Lester, and Barbara Lester are trapped in an upstairs room during a spring flood. Grandma Darris is amusing herself by playing solitaire, Carlton is trying to get the latest news over the radio, Barbara is painting her fingernails, and Mrs. Lester is packing. Sud- denly they hear over the radio that there has been a bank robbery. As the river continues to rise, there is a knock on the window. A man breaks the glass and unlocks the window. He enters carrying another man who has been shot. One of the men is George Cummings, Barbara's boy friend. The other is Bill Hooker, who forces Carlton, a doctor, to remove the bullet from George's shoulder. A man in a relief boat arrives on the scene. In the mean time, Carlton seized the gun from Bill and Grandma takes it from him and forces them all into the boat except Barbara, whom she leaves with George. Grandma says that she is going to return the money to the bank ,and tell them that she found it floating in an empty boat. With the reward she is going to build herself a home and get away from all the turmoil of this household. Compliments of Compliments of Compliments of I-IOLTKAHP-FORTRAN QUINIYS 51035 KOHLS LOCK!!!

You must remember, that where other teams played freshmen on their Iunior-Hi team, we used mostly seventh and eighth graders. Because of the Way these young fellows played this year, we expect a winning club in future years. GAME SCORES OUR Scoru: OPPONENT THEIR Sconr: 21 ................ ........

SENIORS Lowell Perkey- Perk , a co-captain, was the fastest man on the team. In his position as guard, he was a good ball handler and a high scorer. He loved to steal the ball from the opposing team. John Schimmoller-John, a co-captain, was an aggressive member of the team. He was an excellent rebound man and a high scorer in every game as center of the team. Charles McClure- Macy was a smart guard and won a place on the eight. He obtained this distinction by good-handling and steady improvement. He was famous for his back-hand hook shot in which he doesn't even look at the basket. David Core-His earnest effort for improvement made him a member of the varsity, his clear thinking made him a skillful player. JUNIOR Bill Pope-Bill, the only junior on the squad, has truly done justice to his class. His quick passing and excellent shooting made him an outstanding forward. SOPHOMORES Louis Kibsgard- Louie was an up and coming basketball player. He saw a lot of varsity action, and proved his ability by good team-work. Bud Smith-Because he was a quick re-bound man, he played the position of center. His very accurate shooting made him a potential scorer. Terry Cambum-Terry, a steady member of the first live, had good passing and dribbling at his command. These abilities will be of great value next year. FRESHMAN Ronald Wilson-His keen eye for shooting, his height and co-ordination for rebounding, won for him a place on the Hrst five. As a forward, he was a dead shot from the sides of the court. -54- 0 for 21 flings nd. 1 HIGH SCHOOL BASKETBALL itting: Dave Core, Bill Pope, Ronnie Wilson, John Schimmoller, Lowell Perkey, Terry Camburri, Bud Smith.

How many keys to achieve- ment are needed? Enough to keep one busy for a lifetime, fashioning them out of knowledge, reason and experience.
