University of Chicago M.A, University of Michigan ENGLISH, SOCIAL SCIENCE, DRAMA In the six years that Mr. Cooke has been at Ottawa Hills School, he has become a force for developing and liberaliz- ing our thinking. As senior advisor, he has successfully placed our First three graduating classes in colleges and uni- versities all over the country. His dramatic productions have drawn wide attention for their excellence. In his Eng- lish and Social Science classes, he has brought to his stu- dents a consciousness of the problems to be faced in the world of today and tomorrow. To Mr. Cooke, for all that he has meant to our school and the distinguished mark that he has left here, the Class of 1943 gratefully dedicates this Mesasa. I0 55 Q-aft ' '- --M ,, .,-4: 1 .N - .

Questions of any sort may be brought before the group for discussion or decision. X The major work this year was composing a constitution defining the Board's specific functions and powers.

Comprised of two student representatives from each grade, the eiqhth through eleventh, and three from the twelfth grade, the Athletic Board of Control is in its fourth year. This year it has acquired a great amount of responsibility. All important questions dealing with athletics are settled by the board under the supervision of Mr. Deardorff. This year it inaugurated a new type of varsity award, the 8-2 award, which is given to boys who deserve a much higher award than a six-inch letter, but who have not quite met the qualifications for an eight- inch letter. The board makes all Hnal decisions on students receiving varsity awards: it is in charge of ticket sales for athletic events: it sponsors the annual Var- sity Dance and the Annual Banquetg and it has organized the O.H.C1ub , a group of past and present holders of varsity awards. The students respect this board and honor its final decisions. President ....... . . Bill Taylor Secretary ............ Jean Belknap Faculty Advisers ....,.

This being a War year, the staff has worked doubly hard to portray in this year's book, life as it is really lived at O.H.H.S., that it may serve as a re- membrance to its subscribers who will be separated and scattered World-wide.

From under files book covers, posters, and typewriters, the group manages to emerge with a well-ordered, well-stocked library. This group is new this year and was created to give much-needed assist- ance in the library, by keeping it functioning properly and well. Duties are much the same as those of reguar librarians. This staff will continue to operate because of the great service it renders the school. 3' 5 Prensa t Wllxlliiia I - j f mm a -J np -. ,fs ..,,.. Bill Langley f Y 'f W7 ' Ve vice-Pregidem ....

Besides other activities, the group has promoted the collection of salvage, the Red Cross drive, and the War Chest drive. One of the largest events was buying a jeepg the Victory Corps and the junior Class sold over a thousand dollars worth of War Bonds and Stamps in two weeks. To insure more intense activity towards the war effort, the Victory Corps organized live service divisions: Air, Sea, Land, Production, and Community. Groups such as Aeronautics class, Boy Scouts, and Girl Scouts' Aeronautics class were inducted. The Victory Corps is putting emphasis on Victory gar- dens, farm and community Work, and other summer jobs. I 2 flu rg 017715 President-First Semester . . , ...,...

My it 0, Nl This is the second year that a group of O.H. males have banded together under the monicker of the Ottawa Hills Hi-Y Club. Going into a mental huddle, they came out with the practical idea of sup- per meetings followed by interesting programs and also delighted the student populace by sponsoring post-basketball juke-box dances. Not content with just local affairs, the club had a large part in planning one of the annual Toledo Hi-Y Friend- X I ship Forums. No Added to this list of accomplishments is their iw Vfnmfb assistance at Community Nights and at the an- X nual Hi-Y Dance with DeVilbiss. Mr. Fon- E taine continued as an able advisor and Mr. X., Roberts filled the advisory vacancy left by Mr. A X Bolbach. it F' , l 0 D o ,yi o President ..,. ,...

CAL The pigtails and atrocious paint jobs seen around the halls were only a small part of the activities of O. H.'s newest girls' organization, the Friend- ship Club. The rest of its activities for the year consisted of drawing up a constitution, making temporary plans, and pledging new members. The idea of the Club is to promote much-needed friendship between the different grades and with other schools. .grienclakilo President ...... ,... P eggy Ellingwood Vice-President . . .,....

The High School Orchestra has provided the audiences with music at the various plays throughout the year, While the pep band has put that extra vim, vigor, and vitality into our pep assemblies and home games. The separate sections of the music department combined in February to give the annual concert in which orchestral accompaniment for several of the chorus' songs was used for the First time. The chorus also sang for one of the series of Lenten programs at Hope Lutheran Church. 2 Front Row-Mr. Hassberg, Phyllis Rairdon, Sally Adams, Barbara Marshall, june Hall, Ted jones, Mary Boice, Bruce Belknap, Dick Hiett, Barbara Schutz, jessemae Myers, Persis Orwig, Carolyn Warner, Louise Carroll, jean Belknap, Susan Wilson, Bill Monroe, accompanist.

The predominance of comedy may be attributed to the desire to laugh and to be lightly entertained in times of strain and worry. In early October, the Freshmen under Miss Bartholmew presented the gay comedy Skidding by Aurania Rouverol. This play dealt with Andy Hardy and his troubles in growing up. Mr. Cooke directed the Sophomores in Oliver Goldsmith's comic masterpiece She Stoops to Con- quer . This play, presented in November, delighted our audiences as it has delighted audiences for one hundred seventy-Eve years. In December, the Senior Speech Class under Miss Sager presented the one-act tragedy The Va- liant by Middlemas and Hall. This play was given in an assembly and was very well done. It is the psychological study of a criminal just before he is executed. .7I'0JAllll?ll ' H 5?0l!0CA- 31155 ' ' cj! Iljakantil, Q. .

The junior play in March concerned itself with the legendary and actual appearance of The Ghost Train . Arnold Ridley's play was very successfully directed by Miss Sager. For the Seniors, this year in May Mr. Cooke directed joseph Kesselring's high-powered comedy Arsenic and Old Lace . This play, a nation-wide success for the past three years, was enjoyed thoroughly by all who saw this production, and greatly augmented the list of Senior successes.

Everyone who has ever watched an athletic game will know that athletics help in developing a strong body. No one without a strong and healthy body could stand the strain and the beating of a severe game. The player knows that every practice counts in working towards the goal. Few people realize that the mental side of athletics is just as important as the physical side. Every player must learn his plays and know how to exe- cute them well, for if one player slips, the play is doomed to almost certain failure. It is said that in a game each player must make some 250 decisions and all of them must be made in a split second. A player must have courage and determination. Through participation in athletics, a player learns the value of team work and sportsmanship. The player learns never to be satisfied with himself, but to continually strive for improvement. He learns from hard experience that when every- thing seems to be going well, he suddenly gets demoted. He knows he has to fight to stay at the top. An athlete also learns not to complain, but to take the breaks as they come. Many bad breaks come in every game, just as bad breaks occur in life, but a true athlete learns to take the hard knocks smiling. 45 eniom .garb ,E S?

In the second half, through hard drives and good breaks, the Cowboys were able to score the only touchdown, winning the game 7-O. OAK HARBOR-An outweighed, outclassed, but not outfought team went down 40-6 under the tremendous pounding of a Fine Oak Harbor team. Oatie's beautiful 40-yard sprint chalked the score for Ottrvva Hills. DEVILBISS-Getting rolling for the first time, Ottawa Hills pushed the DeVilbiss Lightvveights all over the Field to 24-0. Taylor scored from the 10-yard line on a short Bill to Bill fOatis to Taylorj pass in the second quarter and again in the third, catching a pass from Pittman. Oatis scored the next touchdown after a beautiful 40-yard run. He then scored from the 6-yard line for the last score of the game. CLAY--Slipping and falling before they got started, Ottawa Hills fell to Clay , 18-0, in the muddiest battle ever fought. HOLLAND-Ottawa Hills, scoring in every quarter, trampled Holland 32-6.

Our freshman star, Frank Bailey, plunged 15 yards for the next touchdown. Oatis threw Taylor a pass for the last tally. 48 1 2 WHITEHOUSE-After a scoreless first half, Whitehouse scored twice to defeat the hard-fighting Green Arrows, 14-0. CENTRAL-A nip-and-tuck game all the way, Central scored first. A Pittman-to-Bailey pass set the stage for an Oatis-to-Taylor touchdown pass. Fireball Fran- kie scored the second touchdown after he covered 80 yards in four plays with magnificent running. After Central scored a safety, Zapf threw a pass from his 35- yard line to Taylor on Central's 35-yard line, and Taylor ran the remaining distance for a touch- down. On the following kick-off, Central scored and the game ended 19-14. WHITMER-A highly favored, un- beaten Whitmer team defeated Ottawa Hills, 14-6. Doing this, they received the worst physical beating they ever had. They scored twice the first half but never threatened again. Ottawa Hills, though outgaining and out- playing them the second half, could score only once on a long pass from Zapf to Taylor. . Fireball Frankie makes a hard, driving tackle. .

Only three B teams, those with the best sea- son's records, could enter the tournament. Because the Ottawa Hills B squad had the toughest schedule of any school in the county it was really a feather' in its cap to get into the tournament.
