L. VAN WINKLE 0. R. JOHNSON Clerk President Board of Education Our Board of Education is truly one of which the students of the Delta School can be proud. As the executive body of our educational system, they have shown a keen interest in their efforts toward maintaining modern and adequate educational facilities for the pupils of this school. The welfare of the students has been the impetus in all of their movements. We who have studied in the classrooms of the Delta school are grateful for all the benefits we have received from the untiring labors of this important division of our educational system. C. E.

No annual would be complete without some mention of the faculty. Perhaps you could better understand what I'm about to say if I remind you that the faculty is an important power behind our school. The faculty, then, could be compared to a large machine in a very important factory, which would of course be Delta High School. This factory is noted for its Hrst-class products, the Seniors, which are finished after four years of hard labor. Now we have fourteen parts to this machine. The greatest of these is our superintendent, Mr. Burkholder. It is he who controls the other pieces of this machine in much the same manner as an engineer controls the move- ments of a locomotive. He also presides over two classes of Senior Survey. Mr. Heischman, our principal, is also an important part of our machine. His chief worr , which is reall no worr at all is to teach mathematics and Y Y Y w physics. Too, he presides over assembly programs and is our athletic director. Another member of the assembly line is Mrs. johnson. One usually Hnds her in her room coaching the products on debate or some part in a play, since it is her duty to direct the Senior play as well as to teach English and public speaking, which includes debate. Without a doubt, her great worry is the abuse of the English language we so often hear around school. Next on our list we find Miss Woolery. Much of her time is spent in the new gymnasium where she has charge of all the girls' physical education MISS GOLDA NAU MR. ROLAND MISS JANE MR. CLARENCE MRS. HAZEL MR.

But if she isnit in the gymnasium you will probably find her in the lab teaching either biology or French. Among her accomplishments this year we find a badminton tournament, intramural basketball games, and the junior class play. G. A. sponsor and adviser to the Del-Hi and to the Green and White staff should be added to this list. Next we greet Miss Nau who is supreme in the commercial department. This department is the main factor in the production of grade A steno- graphers and secretaries. By the term the commercial department, we mean the classes of typing, shorthand, bookkeeping, and business arithmetic. Besides her regular classes she is the sponsor for Commercial Club and the guiding light for the Del-Hi and the Green and White staff. Miss Williams is one of our music instructors. It is her duty to direct all glee clubs, these include clubs for girls and boys and the Choral Club, both Senior and Junior High Orchestras, and the musical operettas. Latin is the subject which we thought would be so hard and turned out to be quite readable under her guidance. Next to bat is Mr. Koppitch. The term 'to bat' fits him exactly because he is our coach, not only in baseball, but in football, basketball and track as well. In regard to studies Mr. Koppitch has charge of the industrial art classes and physical education. Among his accomplishments this year we find intra- mural basketball as well as the usual football, basketball and track teams which he so competently produces. Varsity DH is under his supervision also. Mr. Kibele is the historian in the upper four grades. Under his leadership the products are taught world history, American history, American govern- ment and sociology. In extra-curricular work Mr. Kibele is sponsor for Hi-Y and Senior class, and is assistant coach in basketball. The home economist of this factory is Miss Rhoad. The home economics cottage is her shrine and she is the supreme ruler. Under her the girls are prepared to cook and sew with the best of them, and as a side line she is the helpful adviser of F. H. A. and Girl Reserves. Mr. Ruggles is to the boys as Miss Rhoad is to the girls. It is he who pre- sides over the agricultural department and teaches them all they need to know about farming and the repairing of farm machinery. He is also ruler over the boys' organization, F. F. A. The other music teacher is Mr. Turnbull, who alone is responsible for the band. Every Monday and Wednesday he has the group as a whole and the other days of the week he has individual classes. The two who have undertaken to educate the seventh and eighth grades are Miss Davidson and Mr. Knapp. Miss Davidson also has charge of fresh- man English and Mr. Knapp has charge of freshmen boys, science. Last but not least, we have Miss Swartz who is Mr. Burkholder's secretary and general handy-man. To the pieces of this great machine, the faculty, we the products, the Seniors of the Class of 1940, wish to dedicate this page. ADMINISTRATION f TT DEL-I-II I SWIM We'1l begin right away and this much confess: We don't want any Juniors mixed up in this mess: A Sophomore introduced would surely be a crime: The very young Freshies would certainly spoil the rhyme: Only the Seniors will dare be admitted: And no other classmen will 'ere be permitted: The year is 1950. I went to call on Mr. Heischman the other day fremember him? He was our sponsor in 1940i and can you imagine, he was grey! Although it was a rather delicate question, I inquired about this little matter of his hair, and he said he thought it was caused mainly by the Class of 1940. fAnd I didn't consider that any complimentj. He then started telling some of the various reasons why this came about, and was my face red! It seems the whole thing started in algebra class. He said the very first day Robert Prentiss carved his and Hazel McArthur's initials on a desk, thereby staking his first claim in D. H. S. And every day it was the same old story! Burley Clay and Junior Williams mistook themselves for pigeons and con- tinuously perched on the window-sills. He also declared that he thought Robert Falor, Milton Langel, Chalmers Spiess and Paul Spengler should be awarded medals for their good marksmanship in throwing erasers. Then there was also science class, and every day Earl Irish, Max McArthur and Floyd Young had a race to see who could run the best scale on the revolving seats. Well, then we all became Sophomores fmuch to our surprise, not to mention many othersl. That year Mr. Heischman taught plane geometry. Even though Tom Bowerman, Earl Harris and Robert Churchill were always going off on a tangent, or getting the wrong angle, they did manage to get through. Just then Mr. Kibele came in. fYou remember Kib, don't you?l Instead of being grey, he was bald. He was feeling fine, thank you. We told him what the topic of conversation was and he had some interesting bits to add. He said although we were a rather noisy class, Ruth Essex, Lucille Vondran, Loraine Miller, Margaret Krauss, Helen Schiavone and Floyd Meridew were always rather quiet. We also discussed Frank Fraker, Burley Clay, Robert Morr, Bob Geiger and Bill Bauman who were our star members of the gridiron, not to mention Raymond Dick's and Junior Williams' ability on the basketball Hoor. Mr. Kibele said he remembered Beatrice Raker's cheerleading when she was a Senior, and he thought she was one of the best cheerleaders we ever had. And by the way, wherever there was Beatrice, there was Bernice Albin. Two other girls who were good friends were Margaret Danser and Edith Mae Horn. Mr. Heischman commented on the scholastic ability of Genevieve Bernath. He actually thought she was a genius. In our senior year there were several romances, such as Gerald Hines and Beatrice Double, and Chalmers Spiess and Mary Willey. Then ' SENIOR HISTORY SENIOR HISTORY ' CONTINUED I should mention the gang which began in our freshman year and con- tinued right up until we were graduated. There were June Harmon, Mary Willey, Lorraine Vollmer, Lois Aumend, Arlene Mann, Helen Sieren, Margaret Johnson and Kathryn Drum. Mr. Kibele wondered if Bill Drewyore's name was in Who's Who of 1950 for the poetry he wrote, and also if William Dewey's name was men- tioned in the history books because of his likeness to another historical man about whom Mr. Kibele had tried so desperately to teach us something. Toward the last of our senior year a new student, Joe Simek from Stryker, came into our class. We didn,t have much of a chance to get well acquainted with him but we hoped he enjoyed going to D. H. S. And last of all we thought of Robert Whitaker, the assistant editor of our annual, and it was unanimous that he was small but mighty. We all decided, however, even though we did have our bad points, we were a rather good class, and after all, they did build the new building just so the Class of 1940 could graduate from it. We gave a very nice banquet to the Seniors when we were Juniors, and we were paid in full the following year by the lovely banquet which the Class of 1941 gave us. I know our Senior class play was inferior only to Gone With the Wind. I do sincerely hope everyone is following our motto, Striving to see, to act, and to do our best at all times. L. A. A.

We have greatly appreciated the comfort and the convenience which we have gained through the building of this school. For you, undergraduates, we wish the same friendships and respect for the administration and the faculty in future years as we have had. Those who will be graduated from Delta High School in later years will have the same satisfaction and enjoyment of attending Delta School as we have had.

Pupils have come to Delta from various schools to replace those who have left, but these nine students may have the honor of saying that they have remained together during their years of school life in Delta.

Senior Class Pla The name of the Senior class play which was given May 9 was The Merry Haresf' The Hare family, a very eccentric one, consists of Professor Horace Hare, Diana and Phillip, the twins, and Christian. Diana is as beau- tiful as Christian is plain. Christian likes motor boats and outdoor life and worries very little about love, while Diana is trying to marry a wealthy man. When Aunt Amber, accompanied by Anthony Prather, a famous explorer, comes to visit the family she finds Christian the only member of the family free to entertain her. Diana thinks Mr. Prather just the man for her. Christian, however, mistakes him for Tony Markopopoulos, who has come to repair the motor of her speed boat for the races. Ernest Cheshire, a neighbor, wants Christian to marry him, but she will not consent. Pug Wain- wright, a famous football player, has been invited to visit Phillip, but when he comes Diana mistakes him for the Fuller Brush man, and won't let him in. Meanwhile, word goes out of an automobile theft, and the name of Marko- popoulos is linked with the theft, making Anthony Prather the suspect for the theft. In the end, Pug returns, Diana and he are to be married, Anthony,s name is cleared, and he admits it is Christian in whom he is interested. ' SENIOR CLASS PLAY Senior Scholarship Twelve members of the Senior class made up the Senior Scholarship Team. This team, together with teams representing schools from all corners of Fulton County met in Wauseon, Saturday morning, March 30, to com- pete for highest honors in the test composed of questions on English, science, mathematics, history and reading comprehension. To be eligible for the scholarship test a Senior must be in the upper third of his class. From a large group of eligible students, only twelve were able to take the test.

The story concerns an author, Stephen Santry, who inherits a farm in the Missouri Ozarks. Later he sends for his family to visit him, only to hnd that they refuse to stay in such a place. The elder daughter pretends illnessg hut when the doctor is called, he finds that she does have a weak heart. Later a neighbor girl visits the family and breaks out with scarlet fever. Being quarantined for a month, the family learns that country life isn't so dis- agreeable after all. Finally Dr. Gray and Olive get married, Dick is given the farm, and Stephen and his wife go hack to Chicago, with the under- standing that they will return firmly convinced that the real American life can exist anywhere as long as it is in the heart. The curtain closes and a thunder of applause is heard, for New Fires was undoubtedly a success. Between acts the Delta Roclcettes, better known as the Junior Jollies, made their initial dancing appearance. First Row: Sadie Njaim. Richard Falor, Elizabeth Soule.

Seventh and Eighth Grades Wlien we speak of Delta High School, we must also include those who are in Junior High School. In the two grades which are included in Junior High, twenty-nine are enrolled in the eighth grade and thirty-five in the seventh grade. These pupils gain recognition by striving to he on the honor roll and by wartici atin in extra-curricular activities such as hand, orchestra, unior P P g High Glee Club and interscholastic hasketball. This year, both the seventh and eighth grades have put forth special effort in presenting two outstanding programs. Ac the Farmers' Institute, the eighth grade entertained the public with a play entitled The Mtirder of the English Language. Much of the success of the play is credited to Mr. Knapp, teacher of the eighth grade, who was the author. All twenty-nine pupils in the eighth grade took part in the play and received praise for their fine performances. The seventh grade was invited to furnish a program in honor of Abraham Lincoln hy the American Legion. They debated on the subject: Resolved, That George hxfashington hiad Greater Difficulties to Overcome than Ahraham Lincolnf' Hearl Wliitmer acted as chairman and each member of the grade took part in the discussion. The program was well received by 'SEVENTH AND EIGHT!-I GRADES SEVENTH AND EIGHTH GRADES ' CONTINUED the audience. Miss Davidson has charge of the seventh grade and is well pleased with the work her pupils have done. As a special event to celebrate their graduating from Junior High, the eighth graders spent a day at Greenfield Village.

It is a difiicult task to characterize the Seniors and summarize their work, but with Lois Aumend as Senior class editor it was easily completed. The junior, Sophomore and Freshman classes were written by their editors, Bill Drewyore, Robert Lindau and Margaret Johnson, respectively. Beatrice Double, our literary editor, secured information for our faculty page and other minor clubs. Witli the aid of their cameras, Robert Prentiss and June Harmon caught many people for our snapshot pages. In the sports section you will find a resume of the year's sports by Robert Morr and Frank Fraker. Lorraine Vollmer applied her artistic hand in making our calendar. Our business managers, Earl I-larris and Chalmers Spiess, should be compli- mented for making this year's annual a financial success. The most credit, however, is due our editors, Arlene Mann and Robert Wliitaker, for their untiring effort in making this annual a success. Robert Geiger took care of the jokes. And last, but certainly not least, our typists, Mary Willey, l-felon Sieren, June Harmon, Margaret Danser and Beatrice Raker, contributed much time and effort typing the book in preparation for its trip to the press. All the members of the staff furnished various minor write-ups. We wish to thank Miss Nau and Miss Woolery for their assistance in producing the Del-Hi, and the contributions given by the various clubs and classes. -DEL-I-II STAFF Green and White The Green and White is a paper which has been published by the students of Delta High School for eleven years. It represents the school in all its activities and promotes good will among the various classes by providing a common interest. In addition it wields a powerful infiuence in improving the morale of the school. Those things which are against the good of the school are discouraged, while the desirable school life and activities are encouraged. Next year a new staff under the editorship of Joy Lehman will publish the Green and White. The Junior staff is to be commended for the excellent issue it published in February.

Approximately five hundred circulating books are found here which are duplicated in the town library. In addition we have many reference books, magazines and books which correlate with every subject taught in the school. A different librarian is in charge each period and under the direction of Mrs. johnson and Mrs. Staehling, these librarians have been taught to check out books and magazines and to keep a circulation record. We are indeed fortunate to have access to such a library and to enjoy the facilities that it offers. -LIBRARIANS Debate Witli only four practice debates, two with Sylvania, one with Lake and one with Waiiseoii, the Delta debate squad entered the tournament at Port Clinton, Nlonday, February 26. The subject for the contest debate was: Resolved, That the Federal Government Should Own and Operate the Railroads.

For their effort and excellent worlc several band members received letters at the end of the year. The band has made great progress in the last two years under the leader- ship of Mr. George Turnbull. -BAND Urchestra The aim of the organization has been to increase the number of players, yet retain a balance in instrumentation and harmony. The group has clelved into the classics this year lay playing excerpts from symphonies by such composers as VVagner, Tschailcowsky, Beethoven and Brahms. Eugene Ormandy, conductor of the Philadelphia Symphony, is deeply concerned with the competition which is facing him from the Delta High School Orchestra. First Row: Sadie Njaim.

Their first appearance was at the grade operetta where they played three selections. This orchestra not only gives the pupils good musical training, but it also prepares them for participation in the senior high orchestra. -JUNIOR HIGH ORCHESTRA Iunior High Dperetta A cast of 7th and 8th grade pupils presented the operetta Sunny of Sunnysidew on Nlarch 14. This operetta was coached by lVlr. Knapp, Miss Davidson and Miss Williams. Sunny', was an orphan in Sunnyside Home. She played an important part in the plans involving the adoption of one of the orphans and in the plot which included a theft, a kidnapping and heaps of suspense. lVluch credit should go to these young pupils who toolc part in the operetta and who helped make it a success.

SULLIVAN In selecting a college to attend, the first consideration of the average Senior boy is: Are there many pretty girls there? If so, that's just the place for him since he should have a chance to succeed-or has he? The average Senior girl always wants to know if there are a few handsome men on the football team, and if they attend the dances that are put on by the college. Last but not least the boys and girls want to have subjects which will give them the most credits for the least work. As a rule a college has two semesters of eighteen weeks each. During this time the professors of the many classes will think it necessary to hold exam- inations. These exams are for the good of the professor, to see how much he has been able to teach you during the time preceding the test, so why worry if you Hunk. Much grief could be avoided though if the good professor would take the good exams himself. Morning classes begin at 8:00 A. M.-practically the crack of dawn. However, the policy of Early to bed and early to rise, somebody said, makes you healthy, wealthy and wise. Personally, I think, if a student were wise he wouldn't have an 8:00 class, furthermore in the hurry to be on time, one can,t do full justice to breakfast, thereby endangering his health. Last of all, if a student were wealthy, why should he bother to come to school. Of great importance, of course, are the subjects studied in college. These subjects will enable all to be successful in any profession they may choose. A little information on the requirements of these subjects will interest all. English is a subject in which you are sure of a credit. You need only learn to spell spelling, and write writing. If you are a little weak in composition, the college has a library filled with books containing essays and themes. You stand a 50-50 chance the Prof hasn't read all of them. In case you are weak in spelling, keep away from a typewriter. Scrawl your penmanship even more scrawlier than usual. In correcting the assignment and not being able to decipher it, the Prof may give you the benefit of the doubt-maybe. Mathematics is the collegiate's favorite. This subject is guaranteed to con- fuse and confound even the best. What it will do to the dull or the easy-going student in one semester is shameful. This math is bad for the peace of mind but excellent for the brain. To know how many degrees are in a right, obtuse, perpendicular, square, or circle will be of great value ten years from now, while selling insurance or counting trees on the P. W. A. The subject of history, divided into ancient or modern, European or American, tells of wars, inventions, and discoveries. The dates of all -events from the dawn of this so-called civilization until the present can be found -KOLLEGE KURRICULA KOLLEGE KURRICULA ' CONTINUED inside a history book. Until such priceless bits of knowledge as to what famous document did R. U. Dull write in the year 1313, or how many Tbs. of coal did the state of Pennsylvania send to Washington at Valley Forge are known and understood, a student can't be classed as educated. The knowledge of phenomena as explained and resolved into causes and reasons, posers and laws, is what is known as the subject of Philosophy. Philosophy, as a rule, is as clear as mud to collegians, and as easy to wade through as quicksand. Worst of all no pony comes with this book. You're on your own, or at best that guy in the next seat may be able to help, but chances are it's a case of the blind leading the blind. But chin up, stiff upper lip, and all that sort of thing-students have been known to pass it. One of the most necessary of the unnecessary subjects required is language. Outlandish dialects as French, German, Latin or Spanish must be learned, for no telling when a foreigner will ask you for the time in one of these languages, or some other equally important question. This study of language which is interwoven with declension and conjugations of foreign extract will givegyou culture. Then when dining in a high-class restaurant you'll know what you're ordering. Why can't foreigners learn English like civilized Americans? The English language is quite easy to speak. Ar least everyone I know at college can talk English, the ability and comprehension varying of course, with different students. Science leaves a choice between biology, physics and chemistry--which doesn't give an undergraduate a chance. Any one will take care of your spare time for the coming year. Biology is a study of bugs and leaves. To be frank, the only bug the college students know is the bug of the jitter family. And as far as leaves go, the important thing is the time to leave. Physics is a study more dangerous to the student's family than himself. After a short lecture on electricity, Junior will proceed home to straighten out and go completely dead. Papa will have to go to work without his toast in the morning, and Junior will have to go without his allowance. A study of chemistry is a great training for a young man intending to take up the profession of soda-jerking. By the way, H20 makes water, did you know that? If you're ever without water and are thirsty, pick up a cup of hydrogen, add two cups of oxygen. Mix well and serve. Extra-curricular activities such as dramatics, glee club, athletics and proms scattered throughout the school year, lessen or increase the ordinary boredom of everyday attendance in school according to your own personal opinion. KOLLEGE KURRICULA - Assembly Programs The purpose of the general assembly is to give educational entertainment to the student. It is held every Tuesday and has proven very successful. This year we have the opportunity of using our new auditorium whereas, in the past years we were handicapped by the lack of such facilities. The chapel program opens with a scripture reading and the Lord's Prayer. The varied programs consist of interesting lectures, plays, and music pre- sented by the various organizations and classes in the school. Our first program, pctober 9, was given by the Sophomore class. Several pupils presented a skit using the theme Columbus and readings were given depicting important events in the life of this great man. On October 16 the Varsity D sponsored a program on hunting. Mr. O. R. Johnson and Mr. C. G. Koester gave interesting talks on this subject. Several members of the club gave the laws of hunting. The G. A. A. on October 30 gave a Professor Quiz program with questions pertaining to the sports world. Answers were supplied by students selected from the assefflbly a.UdienCe. On November 10 the Farm Bureau demonstrated how safety can be practiced even among the students of our school. Tests were made with students participating. The Hi-Y Club gave us an interesting program on The Behavior in Democracy. Different reports were given concerning this topic. Music was furnished by two of the students of the club. The Commercial Club presented a play on November 28, A Saturday Morning in an Office. The F. F. A. on December 12 showed two reels of films on different types of tractors. The Christmas program, sponsored by the G. R., was in the form of a Christmas play entitled, Christmas Comes to Posyvillef' The Freshmen on January 9 showed two interesting films on The Out- standing Places of Ohio. January 16 the Boys' Glee Club rendered several songs and then gave a demonstration of hypnotism. On January 25, Mrs. Raina BoycheE, born in Macedonia, now a resident of Toledo, gave an interesting talk on How Fortunate We Are to Be American Citizens and to Live in America. Starting the second semester the Speech Class presented two consecutive programs, January 6 and January 13: a play, She Ain't Done Right by Nell, was presented on the former date and a debate by several members of the class made up the latter program. - ASSEMBLY PROGRAMS ASSEMBLY PROGRAMS ' CONTINUED A Washington's Birthday program was sponsored by the Seniors on February 20. The main feature was a quiz on different events on Washing- ton's life. February 27 a film was given on the Automobile Industry. An advertis- ing campaign was also sponsored by several members of the Del-Hi staff. On March 12 films were shown concerning the expeditions of Admiral Byrd by a Mr. Cox who has been with Byrd on most of his trips. An Easter program, sponsored by the Girls' Glee Club and Choral Club, was held on Thursday, March 21. An enjoyable sermon was given by Rev. Bussard on the Easter theme. Mr. George Everett, lighting expert of the Toledo Edison Company, gave a demonstration on phases of electrical science. The Speech Class gave a radio variety program, April 9, to which the student body responded very highly. The Band recital, April 23, proved to be both interesting and entertaining. On May 7 the Juniors presented their Farewell program dedicated to the Seniors. May 21 was the final assembly program of the year. This was devoted to the presentation of awards to students who did outstanding work in various activities during the school year. ASSEMBLY PROGRAMS ' Extra-Curricular Certainly a very definite part of our school life is the extra-curricular activities program. In addition to giving us a closer contact with our fellow students these activities leave with us many pleasant memories. One of these activities is the Northwestern Ohio Scholastic Press Associa- tion composed of students interested in journalistic work. The first meeting was held in Perrysburg, October 28. The after-dinner program consisted of a speech by Grove Patterson, editor of the Toledo Blade, and an original mystery play and dancing in the gym. The next meeting in Maumee on December 18 was a representative meeting consisting of two representatives from each school. A tea dance and a panel discussion at Whitehouse made up the third meeting in February. The final business meeting in the form of a cabinet meeting was held at Delta. C. R. P. Waltz, representing the Delta Atlas, was the main speaker and gave many helpful criticisms to the editors. An all-day conference was held at Sylvania on April Z7 where a series of talks were given by newspapermen on editorials, sports and other items of interest to journalists. The Boys' Glee Club had a hilarious time on their way to and from Brailey where they sang for the Farmers' Institute. They had a still better time when the Girls' Glee Club accompanied them to Bluffton to participate in the annual musical contest. A new organization that deserves mention is the Choral Club. Their initial appearance was on the dedication program of the new school building. The group also sang at the Farmers' Institute in Delta, at the music contest in Bluffton, and the Baccalaureate service. The Debate Team made an extended tour of Sylvania, Port Clinton, Millbury and Wauseon. Debates were held with teams representing these schools. Collaborating with the glee clubs the debate class held a joint drama and music meet at Wauseon. Some time should be devoted to High School Day in Columbus. Only juniors and seniors and members of the football team were permitted to attend. They saw a grand football game, strolled at random over the campus and returned home late and fully convinced that the time was well spent. In addition to the annual junior-Senior banquet, three other important banquets were held during the school yearg these included the F. H. A.-F. F. A., the football, and the basketball banquets. The F. H. A.-F. F. A. banquet and party was a family affair to which parents of the members were invited. The football banquet at the close of the season was served at the Methodist Church with the members of the team and their fathers participating. As a climax to the basketball season, the basketball banquet, held at the Valley- wood Golf Club, was attended by members of the basketball teams. Mr. Bill jones and Mr. Chuck Chuckovits were two of the principal speakers. Later the teams were guests of the High School Athletic Association at the ' EXTRA-CURRICULAR EXTRA-CURRICULAR ' CONTINUED benefit basketball game between the Chuckovits Collegians and the Easley Morticians. Between halves of the professional game Coach Koppitch made the D presentations to the following baslceteers: four seniors, Raymond Dick, Frank Fraker, Robert Nash and Junior Williams, two juniors, Kermit Hatheld and Clifford Leu, and two! sophomores, Charles Radabaugh and Eldon Wiley. The pupils in Shorthand I and II classes carried on an interesting project by writing letters in both shorthand and longhand to other shorthand students all over the world. Several of the students in English and French classes also carried on correspondence with other students in various foreign countries. Although not a regular school club, the Booster Club, composed of busi- ness men and residents of Delta who are interested in the athletic activities of our school, should certainly deserve mention. This group of business men has united for the purpose of promoting athletics and boosting the teams whenever possible. In addition they supplied transportation for members of the band to all out-of-town football games. For the benefit of the team, their friends, and Mr. Koppitch, a football party and dance was held in the new school auditorium. As a part of the program, silver and gold footballs were awarded to the following team mem- bers in recognition of their I-IHC work and good sportsmanship: CARL BRATTON ..... ..,..

The Del-Hi staff, speaking for the entire student body, appreciates the support and the splendid cooperation that this group of Delta business men have given us in the past year. EXTRA-CURRICULAR- HMWQ Beatrice Ruker, Sadie Njaim and Rose Emma Wiley Cheerleaders Come on . . . Delta! That's the mood the cheerleaders give us when we want to win a game, which means every basketball and football game scheduled. This year the cheerleading squad was rejuvenared under the direction of Miss Woolery, who did a splendid job. Wirh their new suits, new yells and renewed pep, these girls got behind the team and did their parts to cheer the boys on to victory. -CHEERLEADERS Football FRANK FRAKER QF. BJ Frank played the fullback position and was the sparkplug of the whole team. He was great driving power through the center of the line, and his passes found their mark to win many games. Frank was also an able captain during the season and was elected honorary captain for the year. BILL BAUMAN QL. GJ Bill was a left guard and one of the toughest guards to be found on any football team. His specialty was getting through the line to block punts. He was a very good blocker and was always out in front of the ball carrier. Bill also tied with Frank Fraker as the most valuable player of 1939. ROBERT Monk qcg Bob played center on offense and left end on defense. He played good ball all the time, rarely making a mistake. Because of his ability in playing left end, Bob prevented many touchdowns. This is Bobis second year to receive a letter. The team will have a tough job hlling his position next year.

He had plenty of weight and speed behind him and the opponents recognized the fact when they came in contact with him. The team will miss him considerably next year. BURLEY CLAY QR. TJ Burley played right tackle. This was his second year and he has improved greatly during his career on this D. H. S. team. Burr weighed about 180 pounds and used his weight to the best advantage. He was often seen in the opponents' backfield. BLLSWORTH SAGER QQ. BJ Moose was the handy man of the team. He had the ability to play any- where in the backfield and did so when a player was injured. Although this was only his second year out for football, Moose proved to be an all-around good player, and a hard one to stop. ROBERT GEIGER fR.E.j Bob had the ability to reach in the air and pull down the passes. He also had the ability to play end on defense and he was often responsible for breaking up many end runs that were headed his way. His blocking ability helped to back up many of this year's successful plays. This is Bob's second year and he proved to be one of the best and toughest ball players to receive a letter.

The boys have fought earnestly and have always displayed good spirit and clean sportsmanship on the floor. The first division of the team is composed of three seniors, Frank Fraker, Raymond Dick and Junior Williamsg two juniors, Clifford Leu and Kermit Hatfieldg and two sophomores, Charles Radabaugh and Eldon Wiley. Among those on the reserves who contributed their playing ability are Robert Lindau, Ellsworth Sager, Buster Smith, Tom Emch, Curn Richard, Clifford Knapp, Stanley Bruner, James Bower, Paul Osterhout and Junior Shelt. The splendid performance of this ,year's squad created a spirit of enthusiasm that followed the team throughout the entire season. We should indeed thank Mr. Koppitch for his splendid work in coaching this year's team.

Track This is the first year in several years that Delta High School has had a track team. Witll the above crew representing Delta, a fine team participated in the Devilhiss night relays and the Adrian meet. An added incentive for this year,s team was the new cinder and clay track which surrounds the athletic field. This track is one of the finest in north- western Ohio and is approximately one-quarter of a mile in length. -TRACK Intramural Basketball The girls' intramurals were conducted by a simple elimination tournament. The classes were divided according to age groups and when a team was once defeated it was eliminated from the tournament. The Seniors were winners of the upper bracket and the Freshmen of the lower. These two teams then became eligible for the championship. The Seniors won by the score of 14-7 over the Freshmen.
