They are probably discussing the gym class, last night's play, a foot- ball game, the debate, the dance, and oh yes-there is one girl studying her history for the afternoon. STUDENT LIFE SUR SCHOCI. TI-IE BUILDING Etched against the blue sky is the graceful, dignified sweep of structure-our own South High. The shrubbery and trees make us feel right at home as We approach the portals to enter the building and begin study- ing. In our minds we will always remember the interior with its many classrooms where courses in history, mathematics, Eng- lish, physical education, home economics, science, art and music are offered. STUDENT RUNABCDUTS With the ringing of the bell at 11:30 and 3:45, there is one mad rush to the parking lot pictured above. These faithful limousines are always waiting to carry their owners home so that they may appease their hungry appetites. Who says young America isn't inclined to speed? Two hundred of the fourteen hundred students enrolled here come to school on these two-wheeled affairs in search of knowledge. These machines are now parked near the bottom of the giant smokestack, but who knows-how many who now place their vehicles around the base of that high structure will some day through constant striving attain the heights for which their present school work is fitting them. MEMORIES Stored with treasures of bye-gone days And priceless memories of old, . I found my high school diary, The thirty-eight Pot O' Gold. The cover is soiled, the back is spread But the pictures are clear and true, Recalling the friends of my early youth And the school of the Gold and Blue. And South-the pride of our loyal hearts, Where battles were fought and won, Still strives and--twill always attain the best Till she knows that her work is done. I carefully fondle the pages worn, As I flick away lingering tears, Reminiscing and relieving the happy hours Of my fleeting high school years, A S S CD C I A T E S cl of Educafton 7LL4,,e7 We wish to express our appreciation to the members of the school board for their splendid cooperation in helping to make our stay at South High a pleasant one. Sl,lpEl2lNlENDEN'l- ol LIMA SCHOOLS Mr. Reed Mr. J. lVlcl.ean Reed. the new super- intendent of Lima schools. came to our city from Fostoria where he was superintendent ot schools for seven years. Although we aren't very Well ac- quainted with Mr. Reed, his pleas- ing personality has already won US. Not only his manner of speaking to the student body, but also his con- tact with individuals made him our friend. ' ww A ' 9: N, fx Q 'Wh J' 9, 1, C4 .1324 'N .f A ' 1 'X?3u1 5, .

Kwan lrmafz z if pw uf .fr CDUR SCHCDOL , In summer time it silent stands, A dreary, forlorn, deserted place: People passing give it a hasty glance-- i It's merely a symbol of a civilized race. When September opens wide its arms, Half sadly, half gladly life to it returns: Gradually stronger the current grows To a bright active flame that steadily burns. Generations have so kept it alive, They've come and gone-some serious, some gay, Taking what they would of its many gifts, Leaving only memories that will not fade away. Each of us is a drop of life: Some larger drops make her glowing and bright Others so small we scarce know they are there: W She's satisfied, she knows we've done right. We gladly accept her just reward- Education to help us face mankind: With sadness again-we turn to look. Then desert her once more--'tis the last time. Summer again, it silent stands, A dreary, forlorn, deserted place: In passing we'll give it a reverend glance- It's more than a symbol of a civilized race. 4 . x ll 'fl tx 'sk m 1-I' -179 1' -- M, ,,,,','.v.r. if ,.. .w V, 4 U. , ,,, : 5 M .1 ii, 'f fs.. is 'A Y ,,,ff Offxce September 24+Permit please!

C -' 'Wu MID-YEAR CLASS I-IISTCDRY---1938 The second mid-year class entered South High School in January 1932. For the first three years of school life, this class was not organized apart from the regular classes, but each year at least one member of the group held a class oflice. In the seventh grade Carl Evans served as secretary, Robert Tussing as reporter. Carl Evans was president, Sara Miller, vice-president and Robert Tussing, reporter during the eighth year: while Robert Tussing was vice-presi- dent in the ninth. Robert became tenth grade president, while Carl Evans was secretary. In the Senior year students chose Alfred Tomlinson, president: Rob- ert Tussing, vice-president: Betty Sullivan, secretary: and Sara Miller, treasurer. Dramatics attracted many of our group. Active in Ye Merries plays were: Carl Evans and Evelyn Fritz in Growing Pains g Thea Hilyard, Alice Sauer, Evelyn Fritz, and Sara Miller in Remember the Day : Carl Evans, Evelyn Fritz, Winifred Hodde, and Sara Miller in Saturdays Children . In the Junior play Fly Away Home , Alice Sauer, Carl Evans, Evelyn Fritz, Doris Smale, and Thea Hilyard participated while Sara Miller, Betty Sullivan, and Doris Smale served on committees. In the Senior play, Seven Chances , Carl Evans, Evelyn Fritz, Alice Sauer, and Sara Miller had parts. Kenneth Myers, also lured to the stage, became a motion picture operator. Musically inclined, Evelyn Fritz and Doris Smale had parts in an oper- etta. For the past four years, Alfred Tomlinson, Quincy Dray, William Hilty, and Dorothy Lee were members of the band. In Glee Club and Chorus, Ruth Morton, Norman Sellers, Dorothy Lee, Wiiiifred Hodde, Virginia Bowers, Evelyn Fritz, Doris Smale, Sara Miller, and Thea Hilyard were active. Library Club members included Lorna Smith, Leviathan Huff, Ruth Baughman, Winifred Hodde, and Dorothy Lee. Lorna Smith and Alfred Tomlinson represented the class in debate. We were quite proud of Alfred who became a member of the varsity team. Betty Leffler, Richard Shaw, and Catherine Settlemire were active in sports during their high school years. Lorna Smith and Doris Smale did the art work for the Pot O' Gold last year. Dorothy Lee, Marjorie Clark, and Betty Sullivan were typists for the Rainbow and the year book. Chosen by the president for final class affairs at South were the following committees: class day-Carl Evans, Alice Sauer, Evelyn Fritz, Quincy Dray: announcements--William Hilty, Marjorie Clark, Ruth NaPier, dress-Betty Sullivan, Kenneth Myers, Doris Smale: class will---Sara Miller, Dorothy Lee: history--Virginia Bowers, Ruth Baughman: prophecy-Winifred Hodde, Thea Hilyard: poem-Frances Stowe, Betty Lefller: social functions-Robert Tussing, Ruth Morton, Milburn Hinds, Lorna Smith. The last informal appearance before the student body was made by the class on January 21, when the Class Day program was given. Baccalaureate services were held on January 23, while a dinner and a theatre party were en- joyed on January 24. Commencement exercises were held on the night of Janu- ary 26 at Central High.

Miss Helen Shanahan supervised our class. As the year progressed, we elected the following officers: Juanita Rumer, president: Robert Tussing, vice-president: Robert Crider, secretary and treasurer, Flave Balliet, reporter. As mere freshmen we felt very proud to have Ruth Shindledecker, Anna King, and Charles Fralick as part of the cast of the Ye Merries' play, Growing Pains . 1936 After a delightful summer vacation, we resumed our studies as sophomores under the direction of Mr. C. F. Sinclair. Juanita Rumer, Vera Converse, Warren Cremean, Robert Deniston, and Charles Fralick sang in the operetta, The Ghost of Lollypop Bay . The Ye Merries' play, Remember the Day , had three sophomores in its cast: Charles Fralick, Ruth Shindledecker, and Robert Deniston. Jeanne Cloore and Alfred Tomlinson were the only sophomores who participated in debate. Class officers for the year were: president, Robert Tussing: vice-president, Juanita Rumer: SOCretary, Carl Evans: treasurer, Warren Cremean. The death of one of our classmates, Joan Nesbitt, was the only bit of unhappiness which marred our sophomore year. 1937 Moving up to fill the vacancy left by the juniors of 36 , our class was supervised by Miss Marie Bowlus. During the early part of the year we chose the following officers: Paul Hudson, president: Max Kozek, vice-president: Robert Crider, secretary: Max- ine Ross, treasurer. Our junior play was presented to raise funds with which to finance our annual Junior-Senior Prom. The play, Fly Away Home , was a three-act comedy with the following cast: Phyllis Tissot, Jack Weech, Charles Fralick, Warren Cremean, Violet Dunham, Harvey Groman, Robert Deniston, and Gerald Bowersock. Jeanne Cloore and Alfred Tomlinson carried on their ine debate work with another junior, Dewey Bowyer, on the squad. At the close of this year our class entertained the seniors at the Junior- Senior Prom which was held in the Springbrook Gardens. 1938 Ah, at last came the long awaited year! XVe were seniors. Our class, occupy- ing the favored home room 227 and the front rows in assembly, was super- vised by Miss Hazel Baver and Mr. H. C. Roberson. Our officers elected for the year were: Robert Crider, president: Floyd Spahr, vice-president: Charles Fra- lick, secretary: Maxine Ross, treasurer. Mary Helen Lawson, Phyllis Tissot, Rosemary Frost, Florence Byrd, Jeanne Cloore, Charles Fralick, William Coby, Robert Deniston, Warren Cre- mean, Marvin Lubinsky, and Calvin Workman composed the cast of the senior play, a three-act comedy, The Boomerang . Those who selected the play were Calvin Workman, Juanita Martin, and Jeanne Cloore. Other committees for senior activities were as follows: dress-Marie Wood, Ruth Shindledecker, Richard Davis, Howard Ritchie: announcements- Richard Rohr, Glenna Flager, Adeena Miller: will-Juanita Martin, Warren Cremeang poem-Glenna Flager, Mary Ellen Chenoweth, Robert Newland: prophecy-Glenna Fager, Charles Fralick, Calvin Workman: history-Adeena Miller, Maxine Ross: Class Day--Robert Deniston, Rosemary Frost, Betty Brodbeck, Juanita Rumer, Bruce Sims, Paul Irwin: memorial-Max Kozek, Robert Nulf, Floyd Spahr, Myra Shepherd, Amber Conrad, Florence Byrd. Jeanne Cloore and Alfred 'Tomlinson completed their successful season in debate by winning the district championship at Findlay. Treasured memories of the year were the crowning of the Carnival king and queen, Robert Crider and Mary Helen Lawson, Class Day, the senior Wiener roast, Junior-Senior Prom, girls' tea, Baccalaureate service, and Commencement, which climaxed our happy days in South High School. fr 1 .r ,, elk 4. . ...Q ri 5 2 gsemora Jagnuafrq ,mm Row I lleft tn rightb: Robert Ambrozn, Richard Baxter.

W MID-YEAR CLASS HISTORY---1939 The graduating class of January 1939 entered its senior year at South High School with an enrollment of thirty-eight students. Under the supervision of Miss Marie Bowlus the following oiiicers were elected: president, Marvin Lubinsky: vice-president, Mary Eileen Jacobs: secretary and treasurer, Avonell Miller: reporter, Dick Wilson. Although a small one, this class participated in many activities. Mary Eileen Jacobs, Betty Miller, and Mabel Hill were members of the Ye Merries dramatic club. There were three girls who played basketball: Betty Plummer, Lois Sprague, and Mary Eileen Jacobs. A number of the boys played intramural basketball: Jay Waggoner, Rob- ert Ambroza, Nathaniel Clark, Richard Wilson, Lester Woods, Bill Gilmore. Dick Baxter, and Richard Whisler. Marvin Lubinsky was a member of the reserve basketball team. Many students in this class were musically minded. Betty Miller, Mary Eileen Jacobs, Mabel Hill, Margaret Dray, Helen Schneider, Avonell Miller, and Betty Schneider sang in the Girls' Glee Club. One boy, Dick Baxter, was in the Boys' Glee Club. Margaret Dray was the only student playing in the band, Mary Jane Haliena and Martha Williams were typists for the Rainbow. Three students were on the special honor roll more than once during the year: Mabel Hill, Mary Eileen Jacobs, and Israel Tinianow. Three members of the class, Mary Jane Haliena, Marjorie Cochran, and Mabel Hill, had roles in the junior play, New Fires . Mary Eileen Jacobs showed exceedingly good acting ability in the one- act play, Two Crooks and a Lady , which was presented by the Ye Merries dramatic society. This class proved to be a valuable asset to South High in studies, activi- ties, and sports. Our school can indeed be proud of it. 1 1 -1 l' uqior: Row 1 tleft to rightl: James Adams.

DEBATE The Debate Club. under the supervision of Mr. John Slipp, has been one of the most active clubs of the school year. The club entered sixty-four debates with a total of forty-five victories and nineteen losses. This is the best record South has ever obtained and the most debates held in a year. The society participated in eight inter-school debates as follows: Piqua twice, winning two debates: Ada once with victory: Kenton twice with one victory and one loss: Wyoming twice with one triumph and one loss: Central once with a defeat. The members of the squad were: liirst team-Alfred Tomlinson, Jeanne Cloore, Sophia Yessenow, captain, Dorothy Carl. Second team-Betty Toy. Mildred Johns, Shirley Caughman. Gene Rousculp. Leila Gaberdiel. Being in this club meant a lot of hard work and many hours of getting material, preparing the speech, repeating it, and practicing it so that one was able to get up in front of a huge audience and speak smoothly and distinct- ly. When the students leave school, this training in debate will prepare them for further oral work. The squad began practicing in October and continued until the latter part of March. During this period, the debate society participated in five state debates. The record of the tournament debates was forty victories and sixteen losses. The record of the years debates was as follows: Marysville. ten victories and six losses: Wyoming, fourteen wins and two losses: Port Clinton, eleven victor- ies and Eve losses: South. five wins and three losses: lfindlay three victories and Eve losses. The team lost .leanne Cloore and Alfred Tomlinson, seniors, who took a great part in debating. Through the good worlt of each of the nine debaters, South won the district championship.

The South High Parent-Teacher Association is a newly organized society with this pur- pose: To bring into closer relationship the home and the school so that parents may understand the aims and objectives of the high school curriculum. The oflicers chosen included faculty members and parents: president, Mr. A. L. Simmons: vice-president, Mrs. Harry Freet: assistant vice-president, Mr. J. H. Davison: treasurer, Mr. A. Craft: secretary, Miss G. Craig: membership chairman, Mrs. Leo Swick: room mother chairmen, Mrs. R. C. Beaumont and Mrs. C. D. Cremean. Meetings were held on the last Wednesday of every month. At each meeting different mem- bers of the faculty gave reviews of high school courses offered to students at Sowth. To illustrate their ideas. the teachers had students demonstrate the work of the different departments. For eighteen years the mothers of the Varsity football and basketball boys, cheer leaders. and student managers have entertained the boys with a banquet at the end of the season. This year. with a membership of seventy-five mothers, the Mothers' Progressive Club had a very en- joyable and successful year. The purpose of the club is to promote a clean spontsmanship in out- side activities as well as athletic games. Mr. E. C. Miller, president: Mrs. A. N. Workman. secretary: Mrs. E. W. Hudson, treas- urer: Mrs. L. Swick. flower: and Mrs. A. Dupes, reporter, were the officers elected for the year. The Wyse Mothers' Club was organized for the main purpose of forming a liner co.mpan- ionship among the mothers and daughters of our school. i Approximately fifty mothers met the third Tuesday of every month in our school cafeteria to carry on their plans for further good work. This club elected the following officers: Mrs. Gilbert Clum, president: Mrs. R. C. Beau- mont, vice-president: Mrs. Shindledecker, secretary: Mrs. Carl Corrello, treasurer. Formed through the Y. W. C. A., the society completed a successful year. At the beginning of this year a mother and daughter wiener roast furnished much entertainment. During the year funds secured were given to the school to help lessen expenses. Membership in the South High School Boosters' Club. confined to fathers of students and men interested in the welfare of South High School, consisted of approximately one hundred twenty-five members. With Mr. A. L. Simmons as president, assisted by Mr. Harry Hackenberger, vice-president: Mr. Arthur Howard, secretary: Mr. C. A. Lee, treasurer: Mr. George Williams, chairman of Boy Scout Troop No. 7: Mr. Arnold Fisher, newly appointed Scout Master of Troop No. 7: Mr. C. E. McClain, and Mr. Harold Newcomer, assistant Scout Masters, the club had a very successful year. From membership dues. the Minstrel Show, and concessions at football games, this club secured almost eight hundred dollars. This money was given to South for band uniforms. l 1 -J Masquersi fm Cl u b .

The play has its setting in the office of a young American doctor who attempts to cure a lovesick and jealous young man by telling him that he is full of bugs and that if the patient is willing to place himself in the doctor's hands for a month, he can be cured. The doctor and his newly acquired nurse keep their patient from seeing the girl and make him believe he is being made well. However, the disease turns out to be contagious: since the doctor, who had always considered love a game, falls in love with his nurse while trying to cure his patient. Mean- while, matters become more complicated when the nurse is discovered to be a million dollar heiress. Everything turns out all right in the end as the two lovesick men win their girls' hearts. Miss Marie Bowlus directed the production. The proceeds from the play were used to leave a memorial to the school.

CHEERLEADERS When attending a football or basketball game one of the first things we saw was the cheerleading squad in their new blue satin trous- ers and shiny gold satin jackets. By leading snappy cheers and executing many novel formations they worked up a great deal of enthusiasm among the watchful spectators. South was very fortunate this year in having Bob Deniston as head cheerleader because he originated many new yells and varied the formations. Senior high members of the squad who assisted him in carrying out his ideas were Cleora Fisher, Virginia Bowyer, Byron Howe, Fred Hold- ridge and Jay Welty. The junior high was represented by Jean Pugh. Letters were awarded to Bob Denis- ton and Cleora Fisher as special recognition for their excellent work. STUDENT MANAGERS The student managers, who hu- morously labeled themselves The Forgotten Men of Sports, con- stituted an active group of boys. Early in August they began prepara- tion for their season which ended only with the school term. They worked early and late, before and after every game, taking care of the equipment and doing the hundred and one little things necessary in their line of work. The following boys were managers this year under the supervision of Mr. Rusler, faculty adviser: Fred Cook, head manager: Albert Nave and Harry Shriner, assistant managers: Bob Lawson and Bob Reiff, sophomore managers. For their cheerful cooperation and untir- ing efforts, Fred Cook, Albert Nave, and Harry Shriner reached the goal set by every manager, that of receiv- ing a Varsity US manager's letter. smaent vlvmaiev-sp Mr. Joe Bowers, a former athletic star of South, was Freshman coach of football, basketball, and baseball. His untiring efforts were undoubtedly instru- mental in laying the foundation for better future varsity teams, Mr. Craft, as Nlr. Sinclair's chief assistant, performed numerous duties, which the athletic department imposed. Mr. Figgins acted in the capacity of assistant football coach during the '37 football season. He turned out a better than average football reserve squad, which will probably see action next year. Mr. C, E. Gaskins, assistant principal, was basketball coach of the Bengal cage team. In the past years, he has always been able to turn out a good team and did not change his record this year. Mr. C. A. Rusler, Jr., equipment manager, holds a year around position. Doing the work of two men, he takes care of all athletic equipment and super- vises the student managers. Mr. M. F. Seitz, assistant basketball coach in the winter, was seen in the early spring putting the varsity nine through their paces. The many games won by the Southerners on the diamond were proof of his able coaching. Mr. C. F, Sinclair, faculty manager of athletics, held a responsible posi- tion which required many hours of hard work. His duties included booking all athletic contests, taking care of transportation, buying equipment, and super- vising the cheerleaders. Mr. M. D. Varner, football and track coach, this year developed a team that piled up a good score. Furthermore, the Bengal team had seven of its men placed on the All-City Eleven, which was proof of his ability to produce a team that can drive. Athletic Advisers First Row: Donnie Hnhbel, mnseot.

Under the capable leadership of Captain Paul Hudson, the Ben- gal Tigers broke even in their gridiron season, winning four, losing four, and climaxing the season with a 6-6 tie with the Dragons. Playing the first game of the season under the new lights at the stadium, the Bengals rode roughshod over the plucky Pandora eleven. The game ended in a 31-0 victory for us. Journeying to Troy the next week, the Bengal eleven dropped a 14-7 decision to the Trojans after a hard fought game in which the whole line distinguished itself, by playing hard driving football. On October the first the Shawnee Indians invaded the stadium for another night game only to go home minus their own scalps, the victims of a 25-0 scalping party by the Tigers. With the score 12-O in the last half of the Marion Harding game in favor of Marion, Paul Hudson converted a kick off into a touchdown through his own A'drive and excellent down field block- ing by his team-mates. Outstanding of the blockers was Bob Roberts, end, who personally accounted for three men. However the game ended before the Bengals had a chance to reach pay dirt again. The Fostoria eleven came to Lima with the reputation for hav- ing a team that could trample any line and go through for a touchdown. The fighting Bengal line would not be trampled and the only way the visitors could cross the double line was to take tu the air for their only touchdown, the one that put the game in the bag for them. Stopping Kenton's triple threat man, Renfrew, the Tigers were at the same time able to avenge themselves for last year's defeat by making a touchdown and the point after touchdown. Despite the fact that the time keeper's watch stopped for approximately four minutes, the Bengals were able to maintain their seven point lead, and win the game. Playing their best offensive game of the year the Bengals rolled up a thirty-one point lead before Wapakoneta was able to make one touchdown. The final score was 31-6 in favor of the fighting Bengal Tigers. Although the Tigers lost the game in the last quarter, their playing surpassed that of Piqua during the entire game. In this quarter Marvin Lubinsky, South's diminutive quarterback, was badly injured and had to leave the game. Up to this time the score was 0-O, but a few minutes after 'lMarv left the game, Piqua scored. South was severely handicapped as they had no one to take Marv's place, and we dropped a 6-0 decision. Dick Davis's interception of one of the many Central passes was the outstanding thriller of the climaxing game of the season, the Tiger-Dragon battle. However, the Dragons' famed aerial attack clicked in the last half and they were able to reach pay dirt after many unsuccessful attempts. The Turkey day title ended in a 6-6 tie, the first time that scoring has ever figured in a tie between the Bengal Tigers and the Dragons. l First Row tleft to rightl: Bill Corwin, Howard Ritchie, Paul Hudson, Max Kozek.

BASKETBALL LETTERMEN DAVE lime old jughaidu BoC,ART, a happy-go-lucky sort, was an essential part of the Tiger team. HARRY BUSHONG, Dave's bosom pal, playing his last year of basketball was a good long shot. BILL CORWIN was a consistent scorer and consequently was high point man for the season. BOB CRIDER, guard, could keep his man from scoring when the game was close and played a sullicient number of quarters to receive a Varsity PAUL HUDSON, captain, who played an excellent game at guard and center, Was the best player on the team. MAX KOZEK, playing his second year on the Varsity, could be counted on to hold his opponent down to a very low score. Bora Muscle NEWLAND, the red- headed flash of the Varsity, had a hook shot that was hard to stop. HOWARD RITCHIE, a fast, elusive play- er, had a keen eye for the basket and was especially good on sucker shots. GLEN STOKES, who broke into the Varsity line-up at the mid-year, proved to be the quickest, trickiest player on the Bengal squad. CAL WORKMAN, high point man in several games, Was the best all around shot on the team. 1 W WmW t Wm 'l W On December 3, the Bengals opened their 1937-38 bas- ketball season with a 21-13 victory over the Blume High basketeers from Wapakoneta. The next night they downed a plucky live from Vaughnsville by the count of 36-29. Bluffton's cage team invaded the Southern lair on December 10, but went home after having met a 25-17 defeat at the hands of the Ben- gal Tigers. After winning from Bluffton on Friday night, South's players journeyed to Greenville for a cage encounter but were taken to town by a fast breaking, tricky team. A trip to Springfield the following Friday netted the same results and we came home much sadder and a little wiser after experiencing a 25-15 setback. In a free-for-all scoring contest the Bengals handed the Shawnee Indians one of their few defeats of the season by the score of 42-30. Our luck again deserted us when we landed in the town of Piqua and were met by a rather hostile welcoming committee in the form of an excellent, fast breaking, cage team that handed the Bengals their worst defeat of the season, 34-18. Ada bowed twice to the more eflicient, accurate, and faster team of the Tigers by the scores of 39-33 and 32-12. In the last game the Tigers were greatly improved and played a much better offensive game. The Bengals were unable to do any good in overtime periods and lost three games because of this by a one basket margin-the decisions going to Central, Kenton, and Findlay. Fostoria and Dayton Roosevelt also overcame us by a small margin making a total of 6 victories and 9 defeats in the regu- lar season. The Bengals opened the Northwestern District Basketball Tournament at Findlay by riding rough shod over the Rough Riders from Memorial High School, St. Marys, and winning the race-29-1 1. Avenging a former 28-30 defeat by the score of 51-17 was quite a feat, but the Tigers turned the trick in their second tournament game. Bill Corwin, sharp shooting center, ac- counted for 23 of the points and was high scorer at the tourna- ment. As you know, all good things must come to an end and thus it was with the Bengals' winning stride. After keeping ahead of an accurate, tall, fast breaking team from Galion for twenty-eight minutes the Tigers were defeated by the Hnal score of 32-27. The 1937-38 season drew to a close with the lighting spirit of the Bengals still unbroken and hopes high for the coming year. Girls' Sports . awe U I , , .

With the drawing of the curtains on another busy season Miss Esther Gil- lette, girls' physical education instruc- tor, can boast of a tremendously suc- cessful season. lt opened early this fall with inter-class soccer. A great numa ber came out for this sport and showed rare enthusiasm for it. The rivalry was very intense as each team was deter- mined to excel. The season ended with the junior and the senior girls tying for inter-class championship. Basketball, which was very popular among the girls this year, started out with a great deal of competition in the tryouts. After six weeks of practice, the class teams were chosen and inter-class games were begun. The sophomore girls opened this series of games by defeat- ing the freshmen 22 to 12. ln the game played between the juniors and seniors, the seniors came out on top. The third game between the freshmen and the juniors went to the juniors, and fol- lowing that the sophomores upset the seniors by defeating them 23 to 22 in a very close game. To close the first round of inter-class games, the seniors ran away from the freshmen with a score of Z8 to ll while the sophomores took the juniors in an exciting battle with only one point difference in the JUNIOR TEAM tlt fl. to Fil. w I - fhtl: it tty liirlilimzvr, lit-tty Jost-ph, Mary Eileen Jacobs, Martha owls-r. livlty Blank, H1-I4-n Armt-ntrout, Lois Sprague, Net- ii Miller, Putty Rev:-ie, Doris Hunt, Betty Jo Hollingsworth. 4 'nv M hirr lh-tt l'l mm-r W liin Hostettler, Vir- uxi D aw: , y it t, at e mm Line, Dorothy Caivanaugh, ,Vldl'Cl1 3 GOLD Q1 BLUE Q4 March 7 YALE 6 PRINCETON 15 Adeena Miller, Captain Estelina Crooks Mary Jacobs Alice Schafer l,ois Sprague Betty Jo Hollingsworth Billie Collins l.ucille Hensley Helen Ream Edith Hollar Mary Jane Felver, captain Eileen Buxton Roberta Sheets Betty Plummer Anna l.ouise Howard Vera Converse Mary Miller Martha McWhorter Mary Kathryn Hager Maxine Mawhorr Betty Biddinger.

Helen Barrett, Juanita Clevenizer, score. Now the girls began to settle down to work in earnest as each team wanted to carry off the laurels of being class champion. The senior girls gained this honor as they lost only one game during the entire season. During home room period on March 3, the Ciold team captained by Adeena Miller de- feated the Blue team, led by Mary Jane Felver, with a decisive score of 22 to 21. Then came the battle to which all looked forward with much enthusiasm --the Yale-Princeton game on March 7. The Princeton team, guided by Anna King, was victorious over Betty Biddinger's girls from Yale. This game climaxed and closed the basketball season. In the spring the girls were kept busy with ping-pong, volleyball, tennis, and badminton. This was the first season for playing badminton but it became one of the favorite pastimes. Five girls received letters for their participation in athletics-Juanita Clev- enger, Rosemary Frost, Helen Barrett, Betty Joseph, and Anna King. BASEBALL In the 1937 season the Bengal Nine enjoyed a better than average year, winning ten games and losing six. They also placed second in the Western Ohio Baseball League composed of six teams. The following boys received letters: Paul Hudson, Sam Howard, Bill Neumeir, Glen Stokes, Bob Ferrall, Bernard Sibert, Howard Ritchie, Gene Douglas, Max Kozek, Harold Barring-- ton, and Harry Bushong. TRACK A new addition to the 1937 teams was that of a track squad. Due to the fact that this was the first year for a track team we did not enjoy a very successful season as far as winning track meets was con- cerned, but we had several boys that made a good showing and we should have a much better team in 1938. INTRAMURAL BASKETBALL Thirty-six teams with from five to ten players each made up the Intramural Basketball League. These boys played during the lunch hour, home room periods, and after school. This year there was also an interclass tournament held with the best players from the intramural teams participating. The seniors won the senior division, and the ninth year won the junior division. GOLF A second addition to the 1937 Southern athletic teams was that of a golf squad. This team participated in three meets winning two, both from Central, and losing one at the district tournament held in Toledo. The mem- bers were: Don Pendergast, Bob King, Dick Davis, Don Main, Robert Brod- beck, Don Maley, Robert Tusing, .lack Morris, and Bob Ambtoza.
