We do so in the hope that Democracy will survive and per- mit the rights, life, liberty, and equal- ity, to live forever in a free America. 5 14 rg!-N l 'g Jai' 1 , Pl, r 9 rl l 4 PERSONNEL First, Ronnie, we'lI show you what makes our school tick. Naturally, the student body needs a restraining, guiding hand. We have it-in the fac- ulty and administration of Ross High. They have won our admiration and respect, and at the same time have given us the best in education. You see, we owe them a lot, which can't be repayed - even in part, but we'll remember.

IMPORTANT COGS IN THE WHEEL Try running the Fremont public school system, Ronnie, and see how easy it is. Impossible? Well, maybe so, but here are the secretaries who capably handled the secretarial work. Ancl below them are the corps of men who kept the school as slick as a whistle, and ready for use. They were all swell fellows, Ronnie. Oh, you wondered who kept saying, What can I clo for you? and He's busy now. Here they are, the schools own two secretaries. Mr. HAIL AND FAREWELL Tip your hat, Ronnie-Here come the seniors. Some of their outstanding achievements have been the Junior Class play, Young April, the Senior Class play, Spring Dance, the Junior- Senior Prom and then last but not least the Debate, Basketball, Foot- ball, and Swimming Teams. As a last tribute to them we say good luck and the best of wishes in future years. Cooper, Dick DeRan, Barbara Hilfy, Robert Hall, Grace Smeltzer. Ze Sv.

JUNIORS It is with admiration, Ronnie, that you should behold the Junior Class. They ranked next to the Seniors in im- portance to the school. With the com- pletion of the Class Play, the Junior Dances, and the Prom, they say good- bye to the Seniors and take over them- selves. Juniors find it hard to believe that they have attained the coveted positions-Seniors at last! 1. t-5 nr' .yn l iwLx,. f it ,Eli ': iiw,-q F526 5 rbi 4 ,I i t 1, ! . J A A f ll A im 'Qu' vw?

Yes, they arep but still they are envied by the Seniors who now write the closing chapter of their high school days. Before the Freshmen are pleas- ures, hard work, and interesting ex- periences from which the Seniors now resign. On their shoulders are laid the burdens of keeping the school going and of bringing to life new ideas and plans of work.

Ross High has been awfully good about fixing up its future business boys and gals, linguists, trade men, and the nations crop growers, into social clubs. Oh yes, we mustn't forget our nearly great orators, Helen Hayes' and Shakes- peares', news hawks, and the ladies and gents of Ross. They too, had their get togethers. All in all, Ronnie, it's been pretty nice. T ' 1 S-L R9 ,QQ A.-ze ir 'I lil! Q,.ia 45.73 'E lk' '- ' NN Q x '14g ?'

'AH, ME PROUD BEATEH Hold on to your seat, Ronnie, or this drayma will raise you from it. lt's a thriller! For some real excitement though, you should be back stage, watch- ing Mr. Bone tear at his hair, directing lighting, and scenery work and the actors shaking in their boots--all waiting for the curtain to go up. And you no doubt remember being down in the shop rooms watching the school's actors and actresses, in old clothes, throwing paint on scenery to get a de- ,sired effect. l don't suppose you'll forget, either, falling over those pillars in the hallway. And all tor what? To see a good show put on by Mr. Bone's dramatic groups. Amazing, isn't it? IWW 'REEL 9 pig 'iff' Nmrmg, iii 5 5.33 I 1 - 't '3 .2 . 4 ' 3 I f 40 JUNE MAD In the fall, the Junior class presented June Mad a delightful comedy of a high school girl and her difficulties in attracting an older college boy who has come as a guest of her brother for a short visit. The double casts proved to be outstanding on both nights. This was an opportunity to give way to the usual spring fever of bookish pupils everywhere. Jane Rimels- pach and Mary Jean Hunt had star roles. FAMILY PORTRAIT A prophet is not without honor but in his own Country, cmd among his own kind, and in his own house. The advent xof Easter with this appropriate dramatization by the dramatic classes added a feeling of humbleness to its audience in portraying the family life of Jesus iust previous to His crucifixion and then years later. It was quite different from the other light comedies and had laughs, fears, and tears. Jean Hufford and Renee Swint starred in this production. SPRING DANCE This story concerns several New England college girls and particularly one, Alexandra-referred to as Alex-Benson who finds it difficult to attract the opposite sex of any description. She thinks she looks like a horse with a fly up its nose, but in reality, she doesn't at all. Alex sets her heart on Sam Thatcher, who has pushed college aside to set off for Russia with a free-living, thinking, rebellious companion called, The Lippincott who knows everything about women except how to get long without them. When Alex has trouble with her courtship, her girl-friends decide to handle things themselves and secure Sam for the sad, bewildered Alex. The girls conspire to make Sam iealous as well as interested in things other than Russia, com- munism, and candid cameras and to raise Alex to the heights of popularity. Sam, a sad funny figure the world over, finally capitulates under the minis- trations of the girls, and he and Alex elope to the great delight of Alex's gang. The senior class presented a happily composed play with brightly spoken sentences and remarks that not only contain humor but depth that shows the girls have beauty and intelligence also. It is collegiate and full of slacks, making a clever play on the younger generation. Spring Dance contains spasms of merriment and pleasant dialogue that sparkles with many amusing situations. The three-act comedy was received by a very receptive audience. Because The Croghan went to press early, no pictures of the play appear here.

This year when they started con- cert practice they hoped to pull down a nice rating from the National Con- test. However, they, like all the other schools in Ohio, were not allowed to attend. Mr. Walter Sells, conductor, and Mr. Mark Osbun, assistant conductor, have a right to be proud of these musicians. They have worked hard this year. This summer they are planning to give a concert for the men in service. That's pretty nice of them, isn't it? You know, Ronnie, there's something pretty exciting about a marching band. It stirs a deep feeling of loyalty and patriotism down deep inside of you. The colors of the suits and the marching music really make you feel great. 44 TSCHAIKOWSKY AS IS In a few years hence, Ronnie, you may have a fiddle tucked under your chin, or may strum the keys of the piano or blow a horn in the high school orchesra, and you will be proud to be a member of that organization as the present members are now. They're smooth and are carrying the traditions of good music. lt is they, along with the band, who are always on hand to furnish music for the various school and civic functions during the year. Under the direction of Mr. Sells and Miss Baxter, the high school concert orchestra has not only been of service to the school but has derived a better appreciation of fine music and a real pleasure for its bi-weekly practice periods.

STRINGS ALONE The conductor raised her arms, the bows poised over the strings, and there was music. Ronnie, this is iust a descriptive way of telling you what hap- pened at the vesper service one Sunday spring afternoon in a Fremont church, when the String Choir, conducted by Miss Elizabeth Baxter player. You have no idea, Ronnie, what beauty can lie in strings alone. ln March, the choir went to a Heidelberg Educational Conference and as special guests played the dinner music. Although the choir is still young, Ronnie, it is definitely an asset and pride to the Music Department of Ross High for the fine work it has done in developing the string section of the orchestra.

With twelve members in the band, led by Terry Burke, the school was frequently entertained by assem blies, at which popular pieces were played. During these assemblies there was one additional bass player. Mr. Walter Sells directed this group of music minded minstrels. LaMar Russel, cornet player, was absent when this picture was taken, but his playing added much to the band's melodious perform ances. Violinists did not appear at all performances of the band, but they were received enthusiastically in assembly.

These are the A Cappella Choir of Ross High, Juniors and Seniors, under the supervison of Mrs. Elsie Green Datesman. The choir gave a concert at the Christmas Assembly and sang at several churches in Fre- mont. The Girls' Glee Club, composed of freshmen and sophomores, headed by Carol Hodes, as president, Jean Hughes, vice-president, and Betty Notes- tine as secretary-treasurer, also gave a concert in May, Ronnie. Joining forces with the girls in giving the concert was the Boys' Glee Club, with Jack Armor, president and .lack Courtney, vice-president. They added much to the vocal choruses and will, with the girls, become future members of the A Cappella.

CAPERING CUBS Week after week, Ronnie, these seventeen students of the Sophomore Press Club trudged to the room of their instructor, Mr. Tooley, and very dili- gently set themselves to learning the right and wrong way to edit a news- paper. With the help of their president, Nancy Carroll, ably assisted by Alice Ann Butman as vice-president and Jean Hughes as secretary-treasurer the group successfully learned how to write. They finished their year by pub- lishing an edition of the one and only school paper, the Chatter. Next year these now experienced newspaper reporters will take regular seats on the Chatter staff replacing those people who are graduating this year.

BEATS AND PUNK DUE TODAY Oh, oh-Chatter is out this morning! Look quick, Janie, did I make the Punk column? . . . Such were the remarks of the student body on early Fri- day mornings, Ronnie. As you may know, the Chatter was the only school paper at Ross High . . . published every two weeks. Although Mr. Tooley was the faculty adviser, the actual writing, editing, and distribution was done by students. Phil Schultz and Harold Schelkopf were at the helm this year, while Saranne Evans manned the position of feature editor, and Emil Seminick captained the sports section. Able crew members were juniors and seniors, former mem- bers ofthe Sophomore Press Club. Barbara Hilty, ad manager, and Marilyn Boyer, business manager, watched the financial end of the paper. They were assisted by eight seniors. 51 Row 1-Harold Schellkopf, Martha Kaufman, Fae Zickefoose, Gladys Tolhurst, Shirley Keating, Helen Burkett.

Ron- nie, this is our staff of seniors for this annual. They have put forth their best efforts for you so you can always vividly recall this year and this class. They hope you enjoy looking at it as much as they enjoyed making it. Editor-in- chief of the staff is Gladys Tolhurst and her able assistants are Martha Kaufman, picture editor, Shirley Keating, copy editor, Harold Schellkopf, sports editor, Fae Zickefoose, business manager, and Helen Burkett, individ- ual picture editor. Oh yes, Ronnie, Mr. Tooley was the advisor for the book. MY FRIENDS, TODAY WE - Ronnie, I hear you like to talk? Well it might be a good idea to ioin the speech club, a well-organized group which was coached by Mr. Weaver. It consisted of the debate squad who did constant research work in prepara- tion for tournaments that occur throughout the year in practice for the final elimination tournament that comes in the spring. Then there were the people in the individual events such as dramatic declamations, humorous declama- tions, and the Prince of Peace speeches which were learned, practiced, and perfected. Pat Carroll, a senior, was outstanding in that she won medals in Prince of Peace contests and was a leader in the debate squad. Alertness, self-expression, self-confidence, and the ability to think clearly were some of the character values derived from these activities.

THE GCOD NEIGHBOR POLICY El Nino-that's only a little Spanish this El Sociedad Espanola club of the Spanish class taught me. You know, this club was iust begun this year with the idea that since, at this time, the possibility of traveling in Europe is unlikely, and Americans will have to confine their traveling to this hemis- phere, the knowledge of the Spanish language will come in handy. With Fred Vultee as president, Bill Thomas, secretary, and Connie White, treasurer, El Sociedad Espanola frolicked though the year with Spanish games, making Spanish valentines, and enioying Spanish movies. Leaving this page, the Spanish class calls, Adios amiga, hasta manana. 57 FRANCE THAT WAS AND SHALL BE These students, Ronnie, are keeping the spirit of free France alive. They kept this spirit alive in others also, by their presentations of teas, dinners, and programs to other groups. Points of interest were pictures of France, learning French games, songs, and customs. Officers ofthe senior's club were Mary Alice Heid, president, Harriet Edgerton, vice-president, and Dick De Ran, secretary-treasurer. The object of these clubs, Ronnie, was not merely to entertain but also to make the student's interest in French greater. Their thought is that France will rise again! Their motto is Vive la France!

The Ninth and Tenth Grade Latin Clubs are made up of members enrolled in Latin classes, and if you intend to sign up for Latin, you will be eligible to become a member. Six or seven meetings are held a year during class periods. Latin games are played, and readings, re- ports, and plays are given at these meetings. Officers are elected in each class. The artistic touch is added when the members make Christmas cards and Valentines. At Thanksgiving time, the clubs fill several baskets of food which are given to the needy.

Here let me carry your pitchfork. Those 57 Future Farmers of America at Ross High surely would be dis- appointed it they could see you now. Let me tell you, those boys are hustlers. Why, this year the boys, by the way, the largest chapter in the state, had 154 proiects including cattle, potatoes, poultry, etc. ln addition to that they had judging teams in apples, cattle and agricultural engineering, entered in the spring contests at the State University. Then, too, in March the Future Farmers with president Dwight Magsig, vice-president Bernard Schwartz, secretary Donald Schlegel, and treasurer Harold Knipp, held their annual Parent and Son banquet which was a great success. You see, Ronnie, me laddie, you're way behind, so hurry up. 6'l BY THE STUDENTS, FOR THE STUDENTS What's this? Well, here we have what we call the student council, Ron- nie, which was made up of all the home room presidents, and under the supervision of Principal A. C. Stokes and Mr. Sylvester Kohr. Now hold your horses, I'm getting to that. You see this group, of which Lucile Hirt is president, Connie White, secretary, and Dick Pence, treasurer, governed the student body of Ross High and accomplished many worthwhile tasks. Among those were the highly successful Magazine Drive, and the Red Cross work of knitting. The council worked hard at settling student problems and are to be congratulated on their work in Keep the School Clean Campaign, and the Locker Clean Up.

SERVED BY BOOK WORMS So you like efficient people, Ronnie? Well, here you'll find them in the Library Staff-Miss Kuntz's capable, and efficient assistants, who were other- wise known as the Book Worms and who were important individuals at Ross High School. They were the ones who doled out the books and helped us to get tomorrow's history, Latin, etc. We all looked forward to their annual assembly, and remember still the literary characters who were portrayed on the stage by the various competing groups. The February dance sponsored after school by the staff, and appropriately dubbed Heart to Heart was a huge success. Those behind the staff were Grace Smeltzer, as president, Susie Scran- ton, vice-president, Margaretta Jenk, secretary, and Carol Hodes, treasurer.

STENCILS, SHORTHAND, HEADACHES, ETC. Did you ever try to cut a stencil, Ronnie? I don't imagine you have, but the office practice students have cut scores of them and they'll be only too glad to show you how. As a matter of fact they could show you all you wanted to know about stapling, running the mimeograph or ditto, filing, or working the comptometer. These students learn all that and much more in their Office Practice class. Some of the girls were chosen to assist the police in defense work. They were glad to give their time for such a cause.

When you hear these words pass from the lips of one of the students, Ron- nie, you are sure to know that he was of the new Retail Class, under the supervision of Mr. Donaven Young. According to a new set-up, students this year were allowed to attend school one half of the day and work the other half. ln the morning the students learned methods ot selling, retail selling, merchandise facts, and other things in connection with the retailing of goods. During the afternoon the students worked at their iobs in one ot the down- town stores. This class was organized in order that the boys and girls in salesmanship would have actual experience. 65 Row Row Row Row Row 'l-Eenny Plagman, Frank Swably, Dale Reed, Warren Rhodes, Oais Rakes, John Winwright, Billy Hetlinger. -Harry Cooley, Robert Sampsell, Jack Huddle, Joe Pasch, Joe Wasserman, Kenny Smith, Charles Hasselbach 'I-Bonnie Linton, Mary Sprunk, Myrtle Hausman, Marion Keykun, Sally Keckler, Joan Guenther, Sylvia Linder Jean inks. 2-Sue Carroll, Patsy Billow, Mary Lou Lesher, Joan Prige, Betty Boyce, Martha lee Lesher, Helen Sipsma, Joyce Dodway.

They supported our annual by buying one even when they appear only this once in its pages. They are a little young to get into organizations and gain letters and other recognition, but when we sent out the call for help, they were there and willing. Let's wish them luck and hope that they keep school spirit right to the finish. WITH OUR HAIR DOWN Go ahead, laugh if you will, Ron- nie, but it was worth it, every minute. Of course, we didn't know we looked like that when our mouths were opened, all we knew was that we were having plenty of fun, enjoying our- selves in school, at leisure hours, at social affairs, and at extracurricular activities that Ross gave us. Laugh, and we'll laugh with you. I Q l l' IH --'Qi it J, s ' e RU! fb fm -Q -, els: ei ...mayb ' za: E . I We xi x K OFF AND ON DUTX Ronnie, these pretty Misses are anythin but dumb.

Now calm yourself, Ronnie me boy, tha lovely blue-bonneted babe has had us a on the ropes for four years. lt's our Aggie You can't flirt with her because that's MI Sells and Mr. Osbun standing guard to he left. Boy would Rosie Chio have been put oL if she had known to whom she was pra posing! Yep, that's the Principal's son, Ror nie, and that is Sue Wolf looking as thoug it's all a good ioke. Just one of those clan parties we have around here, Ronnie, s don't think there's anything wrong. Two reasons for some of that good ol Ross High school spirit appear in this picture Remember Jackie and Bernie? They le cheers throughout the year and we followe them. That's the band in the backgrouna Must have been an assembly. That bottom picture iust proves that teact ers and administrators have to eat as we as the rest of us. That's Laub with his back t' us, Mr. Stokes and Miss Bowlus. 1 RUG CUTTING AND OTHERS Rug cutting was one of the things that we liked to do at Ross and it looks as though these two were putting their best foot forward in this picture. The lad you see, Ronnie, is Jitterbug Zyski. We think the girl is Marilyn Boyer. Now me lad you're really seeing something. We're tempted to call this the Beef Trust, but we wouldn't be so unkind. For your information these ladies are members of the faculty in an athletic moment. They called themselves the Bloomer Girls, can't imagine why either. The man with the apron is Mr. Gruse who tripled in brass this year. Here he is doing the thing he likes to do best-showing boys in the shop how to work the ma- chines. Second in his iob came the swimming team and he turned out some fine Junior High material. On top of all that, he taught a first aid class to prepare the town for defense. The two lads behind the book look as though they were studying, but don't let that fool you. There's probably a note in that book. Yep, there are many sides to this school, Ronnie, and chances are these pictures give you a truer idea of what we are than the staid posed pictures you saw in the organization section. SOME EVEN STUDY Watch the pencils fly! They can work when they set their minds to it, Ronnie, but they do a little better when the teacher is looking at them. You're looking at a scene in the study hall here and there isn't a boy or girl that ever sat here that doesn't wish he could come back and do it again, although they didn't see the point when they had to. There was a war on and all teachers used maps more frequently than ever before. That's Mr. McClintock at the maps probably showing the class where the battles of the world are being fought. For some reason the students paid a great deal of attention when the subiect of war was brought up. Did you ever see one of those nimble fingered typists go to town on the keyboard? Looks easy, doesn't it? Well there's quite a trick to it and there's a long road ahead of the girl or boy who wants to do that kind of work. Miss Cooper appears in this picture showing some of the would-be typists how it is really done. Perhaps Jack Smith is making a speech here. We've forgotten iust what he was say- ing. Anyway, Pat Bodenlos seems to be drinking in all that he says. The lad with the smug look standing back of Smith is Fred Vultee. He's probably thinking of something he can do to make Pat admire him, too. We're sure of one thing, all of this happened at a party held in the study hall. GIRLS AND BOYS TOGETHER Now here are three girls we're really proud of, Ronnie. They should be on another page with a group of seventh and eighth grade boosters but they weren't here when the picture was taken. They helped the class get this book out by loyally buying one. Maybe you'll want to buy one, too, I have a ticket here in my pocket. The gal in the shko and the strut is a drum maiorette and all Ross glows with pride when we think of maiorettes. This one is lretha Nord and she graduates this year. The picture was taken at a football game where the band was always a welcome sight. Here are three Musty steers or is it musketeers? They are singing as you can see from the picture, but had you been at the party you would have disagreed. Berlincourt, Unsinger and Burket are putting on the dog here in fine style. All three will go dramatic in iust a moment and then there will be ham for all. There's some one missing from this picture. He's the little fellow with the bow and arrows. He started the whole thing, but the two in the picture are carrying on from where he left off in fine style. Bill is enjoying himself and come to think of it, Virginia is do- ing all right, too. They are at a dance and we believe they are holding hands. Mzgggs EARTHQUAKES AND SINGERS This time the student is showing the teacher or is it the other way around. The man in the picture is Mr. Croxford who knows more about machines than any man we ever saw and he is telling Teifke how that wheel should be used. Now here is a gang that really does some earth shaking things. They don't even come to bat until half the world has shifted its position and then they are tickled to death for then they can record the catastrophe on that Seismograph machine they have built. Mr. Marshall is the man in the picture and he is the man that taught the boys all they know about earthquakes. Did you ever meet Mr. Kohr and Miss Reuter, Ronnie? Well, here they are. Both are invaluable around Ross. Kohr is the man who puts over those magazine drives and Miss Reuter handles the account for all organizations in the school. That, Ronnie, is no small job. Our Christmas assemblies have come to be a tradition and the kids who are usually boisterous as all kids are, settle down to enioy this special occasion. Without the A Cappella Choir these assemblies wouldn't be the same-not half as good. The Choir has been snapped here in the recessionol. If you ever hear one of these programs you'Il never forget it. NIURSES, SPEAKERS, DANCERS These girls are going to come in handy me of these days if we ever have an emer- gency. They are two of the girls taking Jurses' Aid training at the hospital. They vent out twice a week and stayed all morn- 'ng learning the ropes in hospital care. Here hey are shown in the children's ward. This vork was real fun and the kiddies thought hey were grand. No, Ronnie, that's not a baby. That's Bob -iall taking the consequences because he lidn't tell the truth. Yep, it's a bottle with a iipple he's drinking from. Doesn't look like I star basketball player here, but he was. -ie's a star anywhere. Ask Mary Jean. When you grow up, Ronnie, don't you lare ioin that chronic stag line that devel- rped at all dances. These boys are part of 'and they are no help to the girls at dances. -ome of them will be coaxed clown to dance. 'Vhen it comes time to go home, all of them fill get a girl and won't be bashful any- 1ore. These smiling lads and lassies are in the frocess of distributing Chatters. That took 'lace every two weeks through the year. ight hundred Chatters into the rooms in ive minutes was the record these workers 1ade. Here's a luncheon where we entertained r were entertained. We have the big peo- le here or they have usp we don't remem- er. Anyhow, that's our Principal on his feet. Parquett's doing all right for himself, eh onnie? Another pair of dancers and an- ther banquette. Eat and dance, that's us, te lad. MEMORIES Y was ONCE IN A LIFE TIME There are a lot of things that make a sport season a success: a state cham- pionship in swimming isn't to be sneezed at and a swell basketball team makes glad the hearts of Ross- ites but the one thing that Will stand out in the memory of every man, woman and child in 1941 is the vic- tory over Sandusky in football. Ron- nie, you should have been there. It was wonderful. However, here's our sports record for the season. ,fi .N x I Q If Q .f ,' I :Glu If HERE'S THE GIANT TEA The 'I4-7 gridiron defeat of Sandusky by the Ross Little Giants, an occasion for which Fremont's football fans waited 'I6 years, was perhaps the outstanding event in the 1941 football schedule, through which the Rossmen thundered with five wins, three de- feats, and one tie. Walloping Bellevue with a score of 34-7, the Binkleymen opened the season in fine shape. Captain Bob Hall, Jim Wisbon, and Pete Michaels proved their mettle in the tussel and pulled the boys through with flying colors. After losing a hot and hostile game to the Jr. Order lads with a score of 13-6, Bink's boys drove the Findlay boys out of the spotlight by beating them with a score of 'I4-13. This first Buckeye league win was brought about by the cooperation of the whole team plus the educated toe of Pete Michaels and the brawny back of Ed Fox. Sandusky and her hefty sailors didn't show up so well that October night as the Rossmen got into full sway and put the power to them. Ed Fox made both of the touchdowns and Pete Michaels twice nudged the oval through the uprights for the extra points. Stub Myers, Joe Biggs, Norm Weiser, Darwin Reichert, Dave Brockseiker, Bob Hall, Del Kane, Frank Wernig, Howard Teifke, and Jim Wisbon also gave their best to make the scoreboard read 14-7. Defeating Fostoria with a score of 27-0 proved to be easy meat for the Little Giants and the whole team took hold of the Redmen and brought in the scalps by the fistful. AT BEAT SANDUSKY After whipping the weak Fostoria team, the Purplemen were given a stunning defeat of 14-6 by the Tiffin Columbian team which shattered all hopes for a Buckeye League championship. The Binkleymen found a weak adversary in the form of the Norwalk gridders and slaughtered the Maple Leafers with a score which read 33-O. When the smoke and dust settled after the Bowling Green game, the Little Giants found that they had made their only tie of the season, the score being 13-13. The 1941 grid team ended their season by receiving a 26-O defeat by the Mansfield Tygers. The Mansfield boys, however, did not make the blood fly as thick and fast as was expected and the boys from Fremont put up a pretty stiff defense. Coach Les Binkley, who started his varsity coaching in 1941, awarded letters to Dave Brocksieker, Stub Myers and Elmer Nickel, ends, George Biggs, Bill Lantz, Darwin Reichert, and Bob Pence, tackles, Norm Weiser, Delbert Kane, Bob Kelly, Wendelle Miller, and Harold Frey, guards, Lue Wernig and Howard Teifke, centers: Jim Wisbon, James Michaels, Bob Hall, and Ed Fox, backs. ., -nu ' l 77 4 I Row 1-Delbert Kane, Elmer Nickel, Norman Weiser, Bob Hall, Bob Kelly, Darwin Reichert, Bill Lance, Ed Fox.

Little thought is given to the reserves, but a look at what Coach Gabel's football reserves have done will make the small Giants show up in pretty good light. The reserves won four and lost three during the season. They were unable to score ' at all against Columbian, but the varsity lost that one foo. Libbey edged them one point and the Clyde game went the wrong way for us. Bellevue, Junior Order, Findlay and Fostoria were on the winning side of the ledger.

W wffniyw X II fff SMOOTH WORK, FAST Under the coaching of Ed Gabel, the 1942 Ross Little Giants basketball team won 14 out of 17 games and also survived as far as the semi-finals in the district tournament, when they were defeated by Mansfield. After losing their opening game to Hamilton with a score of 33-37, the Rossmen settled down to some high-class basketball and won twelve games until they were again forced to bow before the onslaught of the Tiffin Columbian quintet. Following this, they beat the Jr. Order team with a score of 50-46, and then came a defeat by Bowling Green, the score being 25-34. The Bowling Green game put fire into the blood of the Ross boys and they trounced the Findlay basketeers to a fare-ye-well with a score of 42-25. The winning streak of twelve games included the defeat of Bellevue, Port Clinton, Sandusky, St. Joe, Elyria, Fostoria, Tiffin Jr. Order, Bowling Green, Findlay, Norwalk, and the second defeating of Sandusky, Tiffin Jr. Order, and Findlay. In the district tournament, the Rossmen defeated Willard with a score of 48 to 14, but were defeated by Mansfield in a long, hard-fought game. They had fought for the . 9 Ziff ' fb ww ff ffl! JD A REAL COMBINATION lead in the first half and gained the upper section of the 24-22 score. The Mansfield quintet came back in the second half to win with a score of 45-35. If there was any outstanding player on the 'I942 basketball team it was William Snooks Jenkins, who broke Jack Carroll's scoring record of 246 points in the regularly scheduled games by adding up 278 points. The colored forward was the most spectacular player in the history of Ross basketball. His lightning speed and quick shots made him a drawing card for the Ross team, Snooks will never be forgotten by Ross basketball fans. Outstanding also were Bob Hall, who netted 128 points, Dick Myers with 94 points, Dave Brocksieker with 88, and Glen Bingman with 66 points. Jim Michaels, Jim Wisbon, Norm Porzac, and Rusty Overmeyer also did creditable work by substituting during many of the games. Glen Bingman and Dave Brocksieker were elected to captain next year's team to victory. lf this year was any indication of their prowess, they will succeed.

A look at the record will show you some close ones that might just as well have been on our side of the ledger, but without those close ones the season was still a good one. The thing that made the season a good one is the material developed to feed the next year's varsity. In that department this year's reserves stand out. There are some real players there. lt looks like Ross is set for some time. Coach Binkley can throw back his chest on this season. RESERVE BASKETBALL RECORD Fremont 29 ....,. ...........

CONSISTENTLY STATE CHAN Again showing that Fremont Ross has the best swimming team in the state, the T942 Ross Natatoriumites ended a successful season with six out of seven victories, exclusive of the exhibition meets at the Findlay Y, the State Meet, and the Northern Ohio Inter- scholastic Relay title, both of the latter being won by Ross. The meet with Canton McKinley, usually the toughest meet of the year, did not prove to be as tough as was expected and the Bulldogs were scuttled with a score of 4'l-25. Fremont's meet with Western Reserve Academy proved to be the only defeat for the Rossites. This, however, was not a defeat from the start to finish, the home town boys having lost in the last two events of the meet. The meet ended with a score of 34-32. In the State Meet, Jim Martin successfully defended his title by taking first in the diving. His protege, Del Rakes, coppecl second place by winning with 63.33 points to the next lowest of 63.03. Dick Pence and Ken Reed also showed their prowess by winning the 'IOO yard breast stroke and the 'I00 yard backstroke respectively. Second to Ross was Canton McKinley with 25 points. Retaining the N.O.I.R. title also proved to be a victory for the Ross Tankers. The D A REALLY SWELL GANG Fremont boys copped first place in the 200 yard backstroke relay, the 75 yard individual medlay lWaldonJ, and the 400 yard free style relay. The team filled in the rest of the score with hard-won seconds and thirds. Those starring for Fremont in 1942 were Bob Waldon, Bob Thomas, Dick Pence, Dean Hess, Ken Reed, Stan Gilberg, Will Lantz, Bill Wise, Bob Pence, Jim Martin, Del Rakes, Ralph Hipp, Lue Wernig, and Leo Lehman. The 'I942 season marked the last season to be coached by N. Bauman CBimJ Stults, who resigned his position here to accept a commission in the navy. In his ten years of service to the Ross swimming team, he coached five state cham- pionship teams out of seven. His teams also won 273 medals, 35 trophies, and held numerous titles throughout the state and country. It is probable that Bim will be succeeded by George Gruse, who gave Bim valuable assistance in his coaching here at Ross. ., - - ,sfgf 85 Row Row Row Row Del Rakes, Ralph Hipp, Dean Hess, Dick Pence, Bill Lontz, Bob Thomas, Ken Reed, Bob Walden, Jim Martin.

Ross Pool GRUSE'S FUTURE CHAMPS In the swimming set-up at Ross High School there is no reserve team. The varsity carries all men capable of big time competition and the boys with the slower time are utilized only in meets where they are still good enough to win. There is, however, a feeder organization, the Junior High squad. These boys have no regular meets with a record compiled for the season. Occasional meets scheduled with nearby schools give them their only taste of the regular competition, but the meets are in the nature of exhibitions. George Gruse is responsible tor this gang and anyone connected even remotely with swimming at Ross will realize that the flashy performance of the varsity and the winning of state championships begin back on the Junior High squad. In Fremont they build carefully.

'11, 1 Jim, JL- i WA' 'Ml WELL COACHED, WELL BALANCI Although Coach Whitey Althoff's thin-clads had only participate in two dual meets, one tri-angular meet, and the Wesleyan Relays at the time this book went to press, it was evident that the boys were off to a good start. Althoff sallied forth with his tracksters in the beginning of the season to defeat Port Clinton and Bellevue in the tri-angular with a score of 72, 62, and 'I6 points respectively. In the tri-angular meet, Chuck Robertson and Jim Wisbon showed up as perhaps the outstanding men on the field. Dave Brocksieker and 'freshman Bob Demmel also showed considerable talent in this meet. The Fremont-Woodward meet brought the Rossmen again into the spotlight as they ran up ci score of 75 points against Woodward's 43. Chuck Robertson again proved himself the most valuable man on the field when he coppecl second place in both the high iump and the pole vault. Bob Walker, more or less a dark horse in the meet, earned his spurs by winning the I O XID A SQUAD WE'RE PROUD OF 220. He also led the successful 880 relay team. In the 100 yard dash, Jim Wisbon finished a scant yard ahead of the Woodward man with a time of 10.7, good time considering the weather conditions. In the Bowling Green meet, the last meet held before this book went to press, Chuck Robertson again gave an outstanding performance with the winning of four events in four entered. He also ran the high hurdles in :16.8, a new record, and the low hurdles in :27.1, also a new record. Also in this meet, Nickle took first in the discus, Walker took first in the 220, Robertson took place in the broad iump, Davisson took first in the Mile and Wisbon took first in the 100 yard dash. Brocksieker, Demmel, Druckenmiller, Siebert, Miller and Schlea also showed promise in this meet. Having entered in the Wesleyan Relays, the Ross harriers failed to place, Chuck Robertson practically running a one man meet. He finished first in the broad jump with a leap of 20 feet, nine and one half inches, and cleared five feet, six inches in the high iump for a first.
