. . So Much Attention On September 5, 1939, the doors of opportunity opened up to the class of '43. Some of this group will lag and fall by the wayside, but others will take advantage of this opportunity afforded by the people of Wapakoneta, who maintain the schools. Blume High's gates of knowledge were opened not only to a class of considerable scholastic aptitude but to a class which has been active in almost every extra-curricular activity offered. Even now Blume High may be proud of this class of '43, for in this short school year the members of the Freshman class co-sponsored the annual Freshman-Sophomore dance, by many considered the most successful dance of the year. The '’Frosh and the rest of the student body have had weekly occasion to be proud of their rookie Lantern reporters, Donna Lee Parlette and June Elaine Presar. The freshmen were well represented in the School Council by Bert Urich, Irene Berg, Koneta Jacobs, and Bob Parlette. Not only the school, but the whole town should be proud ot the freshman representatives in Blume High athletics. Next fall you may expect to see Bert Urich, Dick Walker,, Bill Ferguson, Joe Elder, Max Schlatter, Widdie Miller, and Paul Butcher clad in the red and white football togs carrying the victory banner for dear old Blume High. You will find Bert Urich, Dick Walker, Cliff King, Max Schlatter, Widdie Miller, and Don Weitz on the hardwood, thrilling Blume High lads and lassies with their consistent goal tossing. Proof of this can be seen by the record set up at the freshmen tournament at Lima. Wapak beat Celina in their first game then to have their victory flag lowered by a 27 to 25 defeat at the hands of Kenton. That night they came back to beat the boys from Lima South. Wapakoneta freshmen have many representatives on the baseball diamond, namely, Gunther Christian, John Ochsner, Bill Ferguson, Alpheus Bishop, Bill Dobie, Bert Urich, Virgil Baber, Bernard Cruse, and Widdie Miller. Wapakoneta, Blume High School, and anyone who is interested in the achievement of the youth may well be proud of this class of '43.
