QQ ,D 9 M F 3 JK xl '4 076112091 C EFLECTING THE EMOTION that one undergoes when his country emerges from battle as the victor, the 1942 Saga discloses its theme-patriotism. In periods such as this through which we are now struggling, devotion to America should everlastingly dwell in the hearts of our young people. Patriotism is not to be thought of as a shallow, boisterous act of flag-waving, but as a fine and noble emotion that is deeply rooted in the hearts of every man and woman in America, an emotion that puts thc life of a nation before the life of an individual. In this book, we have endeavored to show that patriotism depends very much on the school and its activities, and especially upon the vast army of instructors who impart to their students the concepts of national honor. t Our greatest wish is that this 1942 Saga. which is the result of a year's effort, will be accepted by the students of Woodward High School with enthusiasm and enjoyment. ,Q-ryu V ---2,1 f- - .

We'ye worked diligently tor you, preparing an annual of which you may well be proud. Now, after a whole year with little or no recognition, we shall step forth in all our glory! As assistant editor we have Royal Kerr, a good worker and very intelligent: art editor, Ethel Johnson, always obliging and eln'erl'ul: senior editors. Lois Roth and Jack Henzler, never too busy to help. Our business branch has been administered very eapably by Violet Lutite and Mary Jane Zaidel. Next, we have had a staff photographer, Edwin Vin- 1'0llI he also handled the boys' sport section. Ruth Morman battered out our letters on our delapidated typewriter. As junior editor, the only junior on the staff, we have had one grand girl, Lois Schoonmaker. Last, but definitely not least. comes llotty, Dorothy Vlouse. She has managed our club and class section: to her goes a lot of praise for constantly try- ing lo keep our gang in good humor. We have been '.'.'ell advised by Mr. Sheline. our Ja i Ja, lVlr. Montgomery. our Jrint sho 1 ex iert, Mr. Thom ison, . . , . , . . . . I , with his camera. and Miss ludlth Murphy. our capable English adviser. To them we say a hearty Merci tres beaucoupf We must not forget Robert Slater who has also worked for us in the print shop. To him we say a very big thank you. And noyv that I have finished com mlimentin f ever body, l'd like to tell you about some of the fun we've had. For . . L , 1 1 every members lnrthday. We had a little party. Babe' Roth may well remember her spanking and Violet and Mary Jane. their treasure hunt : everyone will surely remember decorating Sadie's house at her Christmas party. During the winter we had a time sledding party-ask Mr. Sheline about getting his face washed. Now the year is almost over. but we plan to have another party and just before graduation, a banquet. In our treasure chests are Stored lots and lots ot' happy memories. t ln closing. l'd like to thank everyone who had a part in the success of this book. I sincerely hope the 1942 Saga will be enjoy' d by f'X't'l'fy'0llt', for l have earnestly tried to do my best. As ever.

They bring out and cultivate our good points and watch us grow and become fine citizens They instill in our hearts the meaning of patriotism, not as a lot of words, but as a freely expressed emotion of love for our country. We are indeed grateful to these, our everlasting and untiring friends, who through joy and sorrow have remained with us to help and advise. ll ,S nnnuianulu 1' - Ollil llllll' X5 X . Pls K . l URING the last three or four years, the preservation of our democratic way of life has become increasingly important. The members of the class now graduating have learned through their daily lessons the advantages of democracy and of the tremendous sacrifices our people have made and still must make to maintain it. It is fitting, therefore, that this volume of the Saga should be dedicated to the young men and women of Woodward who are actively engaged in our country's defense. As you boys and girls of the class of 1942 join the distinguished line of Woodward graduates of other years, our best wishes for a happy and prosperous future in a world safe from tyranny and oppression go with you. 0,9466 A cJQcfn1L'nL7stfzaiZon if' N , I.

AIL TO THEE, SENIORS--you have successfully completed four years of high school. Now, the future is up to you. Looking through these glasses, you see a future of peace or war---which will it be? Everyone knows that war is useless, devastating and heart breaking. Yet, are we as the next rulers of this country, going to be held down, oppressed, or are we going to see that our government of the people, by the people, and for the people, shall not perish from the earth Seniors, it's up to you to make the final decision.

Through posters, announcements, and patrols, students were made conscious of our dirty halls, As a result, our student body, always eager to cooperate, assisted in keeping the halls and auditorium clean. The noon movies were under the supervison and direction of the council. As president this year, we have had Robert Kubicig his leadership has proved a great advantage to the school. Lois Roth was vice president, Betty Osgood, secretaryg Joe Hascal, treasurer, and Lois Schoonmaker, historian. Mrs. Schuler and Mr. Wohler were advisers, but because of the illness of Mrs. Schuler, Mrs. Upp pinch-hitted for the year. To the Student Council and its advisers we say dziekuje.

Gal. 6:7 Clubs, assuming the social activities of the school, sow seeds of friendship, honor, loyalty, courage, and sportsmanship. They also reap a bountiful harvest in the success of the projects they have under- taken-teas, dances, parties, and banquets. Club organizations develop in a student the will to make and keep friends, the ability to be either a leader or a follower, or perhaps both, as the occasion demands. Our clubs are ably advised by our faculty members: to those who help us to have a good time and still be grown up ladies and gentlemen, we say muchas gracias.

Football, basketball, tennis, track, baseball and golf-these make up our sport program for the fellows. Mr. Hanham should be congratulated on the good showing made by his basketball boys. This year they ended up city co-champs. Although our football team has still to win its first city game in seven years, Coach Taylor and his boys made a much better showing than in previousyears. The girls have intramural teams which take in most of the sportsg these are under the direction of Miss McClure and Mrs. Draves. Sports not only develop a man or woman physically, but also train their minds, and discipline their emotions, helping them to receive victory and defeat without breaking under the strain. . ig --99l p sd .

Although the results achieved by our school in athletics were not as good as we had hoped, nevertheless these results were most productive in intangible qualitiesg for in football and other sports the benefits derived in respect to the building of character and the development of the principles of fair play are of inestimable value. Our basketball team enjoyed an especially good season, and its activities also resulted in valuable gains for all participating. Besides general man- agement of athletic activities, the members of the faculty who constitute the Athletic Board also impart to those with whom they work many de- sirable characteristics. These men instill in our young people the animating spirit of loyalty and self-sacrifice, the forces which inspire all to heroic living. Woodward is fortunate in having such men as its athletic directors. L. Wamdward Woodward Wmrdwnrtl Woodward Woodward Woodward Wawqlwu rd 5 mma 1 VARSITY Libbey . Marion .

Marilyn Schoonmaker, editor, with the advisor, Mrs. Ersig, and the help of the staff and printshop, produced a Tattler each week. The Tattler staff sponsored many worth while activities and supported many others. The senior members on the staff are Marilyn Schoonmaker, editorg James Cole, assistant edi- tor, Viola Swaya, column editorg John Phillips, boys' sports editor, and Ed.

S Q fi ' gk . . E f gi. ei ii Here, in a typical pose, you see our adviser, Mr. R. K. Sheline, instructor in physics and di- rector ot' the Saga for eight years. When I men- tioned putting this picture in the yearbook, he said, Definitely no g so the statl' decided to sur- prise him. Papa Sheline, for he really is a papa to all of the Saga kids, has directed. steered. and guided us through our senior year. He has made himself aware ol' every member on the staff. and has Cer-- tainly joined in all of our fun. A person cannot be in bad humor very long around him, because Papa will tease, joke. or lecture, as the case may demand, until the cloud rolls away. All through this year, the staff has enjoyed working with lVIr. Sheline. Proof: when Papa was ill, the stafi' sent him a telegram and several cards. At Christmas time. Mr. Sheline was pre- sented with several gifts bestowed jointly by ye ol' mischief makers . Now the year is almost over. and I'm certain we'll never. never forget Dear Ol' Pappy . EDITOR.

Class Advisers Named Under the guidance of Miss Amy Miller and Clyde Meek, the girls' and boys' deans, the senior class will be- gin its activities. Mrs. Eula Upp and Floyd Lords are undertaking the responsibility of the juniors, while Miss Pasch and some able co-adviser will direct the sophomores as Mr. Fetters, the director of last year, was transferred to Waite. Since the fresh- men do not organize, there will be no advisers. Two Thousand Came CLARK HEADS AFTER But Few Tliought SCHOOL ACTIVITIES Lankenaw Fetters Leave' This week over two thousand of us returned to Woodward. Most Th h N ' students took it for granted-a matter of course. Very few really thought 1' ee 9110 ers ew: about the great educational opportunity offered here in America. Twq, Return Every continent in the world 1S engaged in some kind of active war work. They are either steadfast in their determination to cultivate the influence of Hitlerism or else to see it smashed to the earth. In America. it is the latter, for the majority of our peoples are solidly behind the Lease-Lend bill. Those nations that are actually at war either have no free educational systems due to the fact that they are at war or else it is the belief of their governments that such a system as we have in America is evil, that it has no place in their forms of government because it yields toward the zievelopment of the individual. We are fortunate in America. We are faced with neither alternative. lt is up to us to decide now that our free system of education will be maintained. lt has worked for 150 years regardless of the barriers in its path. lt can continue to work. Letls all of us-freshmen, sophomores, juniors, seniors, and faculty resolve to continue this form of education by being aware of its possibilities in our future lives, for without it we shall be no more than herds of cattle driven to feed upon another's ideas and principles that tend not to be numan and considerate but distinctly opposite. Let's come to realize that what we have here is good and honest and no one can take it from us L' C' Clark bflciluse we Wfmit let them- Lincoln C. Clark, of the science de- Bob Kubicki Given Presidency Of Student Council For 41-42 Officers of the Student Council, Woodward's governing body, who were elected for the coming year are Bob Kubicki, presidentg Lois Roth, vice-presidentg Betty Osgood, secre- tary, and Lois Schoonmaker, histor- ian. Other members are Betty Han- sen, Janet Phillips, Don Weber, Joe Hascal, Elaine Roach, Frances Bielak, and Betty Woods. Freshmen repre- sentatives will be elected in a few weeks. The Student Council makes the rules governing the school, and is in charge of the noon movies and hall patrol. Mrs. Kathryn Schuler and Harry Wohler are advisers. Student Council Resumes Movies During Noon Hour With the begining of the school term the Student Council has resumed its duties of presenting movies during the noon lunch periods. The admis- sion of two cents a day, but a pass good for the entire week may be pur- chased for ten cents from girls who will sell tickets during first hour classes each Monday. The girls are: Wilma Keebler, Eleanor Rucki, Agnes McMurdo, Ruth Scheidler, and Marian Howington. Members of the Student Council will act as ushers. Mrs. Kathryn Schuler and Harry Wholer advise the Council. Schools The proceeds from the sale of tickets here at Woodward for the Round Robin Premier will go to the school. Each school which sells tickets for this event will receive s commission to go to the school. Going Up, Going Up! What? Why Food Prices Of Course Going up! Going up! What? Why, prices of course! Mrs. Cecil Ashbrook, head of Woodward's cafeteria, told us confidentially all about it. The food will cost us as follows: Pie, all 10 centsg frozen vegetables, 73 whole meat dishes, 125 and those that were 5 will now cost 6. Orders of meat will be 155 one-half pint of milk 5:pints 93 and tuna fish and salmon salads will be 15 each. These will be served only on Fridays this year. I However, Mrs. Ashbrook said that one may still buy a 20 cent lunch for 15 cents. This is a real inducement to eat in the cafeteria. Scriptwritingg Four Other Special Classes Organized For the fourth consecutive year Mrs. Dorothy Matheny will undertake the task of conducting the oral ex- pression class during second hour. Ten pupils are enrolled. Ten students scholastically inclined, will be included in Miss Marie. Grif- fin's scriptwriting class, which meets every second hour. This class, new throughout the city, will have charge of announcements in the morning bulletin. Each pupil will be respon- sible for a certain number of original scripts. Presentation of scripts will be given through a microphone in an adjoining room. Miss June Anderson is again super- vising a class in dress designing. Be- ginners will work on dress principles while advanced students will work on historic costuming. The organization of library assist- ants is well underway. With Miss Stella Sawtelle as adviser, the com- plete class meets every Monday. The journalism class will again meet sixth hour with Mrs. Marie Ersig conducting. As before, the pupils, 30 sophomores recommended by freshmen English teachers, will study newswriting. , Photographs For Yearbook, Identification Cards Taken In order to provide the students with pictures for their indentification cards, O.M.Thompson is taking them in room 326 everyday third hour. Having them taken at Woodward servesa,double purpose since individual pictures of students will be used in the Saga. This plan is contrary to the group pic- tures that have been taken in the past years. The pictures, priced at ten cents for four, will be taken the remainder of the month. ii Three Cheerleaders Return With the return ofthe veteran cheer- leaders, Jack Wilson, Bob Durfey, and Tom Marenelli, there are yet two va- cant positions to fill. They will be filled by freshman. Auditions were held at 2:30 Wednesday for the vacancies. Sev- eral selectees will compete at the next mass meeting and the student body will make the final decision. All fresh- men were invited to the tryout. Mrs. Eula Upp is in charge. partment, will replace Paul Lankenau as director of extra-curricular activ- ities. Mr. Lankenau, former com- mercial law pedagogue, is now a rep- resentative for the American Book Company in Napoleon, Ohio. As was the rule in preceeding years, clubs sponsoring skates, dances, or other social activities, must con- sult Mr. Clark for open dates. He will be in the office every first and second hour. Evening dances will be limited due to the shortage of funds. Besides Mr. Lankenau, one other teacher has departed and five other teachers have been added to the faculty. William Fetters, former Woodward track coach, left for Waite to assist in athletics there. The new teachers entering Wood- ward are: Miss Marian Larkin, from Sherman, who will teach world history and everyday living, Miss Geraldine Hamilton from Waite will instruct commercial law and everyday living, and Elmer Vorderberg, coming here from Scott will teach general science, everyday living, and will be a mem- ber of the coaching staff. Returning after a leave of absence are Mrs. Grace Kellermeier and Mrs. Marie Ersig adding two more English teach- ers to a staff of 15, making the largest English teacher's staff since Woodward's beginning.

Brown A. J. Brown, supervisor of athletic ticket sales, has just announced the new method under which Woodward students paying cash will receive a reduction of 25 cents on the regular price. The plan which features five foot- ball games, seven basketball games, and six movies held here at school, will place every student in a financial position to buy an activities ticket and support the team throughout the year. Mr. Brown has organized his staff and began sales last Tuesday, Sep- tember 9. Sales will continue in room 308 before school for the students' convenience. The first five hundred purchasers will receive a Polar Bear sticker as a special reward for starting the sales ball rolling. Last year the price was 52.50, the only raise this year being in the new credit system. An increase in the cost of supplies necessitated the 25 cent additional charge. The six movies held here in school throughout the year will only permit the attendance of 1060 pupils. At these the activities book holders are insured admission while purchase are not certain of getting a ticket. Woodward Athletic Board ' Attends Kick-Off Dinner The annual Kick-Off dinner took place at the Sunningdale Golf Club, Thursday, September 11, at 6:30 p.m. This event, held just before the start of the winter sport season, was at- tended by the sports staff of all Toledo high schools. E. L. Bowsher, newspaper sports writers, and coaches were invited to the affair. The athletic director of Waite, Mr. Pearsall, acted as toastmaster. Mr. L. C. Cole, coach of Wooster college, was the main speaker. Those present from the Woodward faculty staff were: C. C. LaRue, prin- cipalg Homer Hanham, head basket- ball coach: Clyde Meek, Elmer Vord- erburg, backfield football coach, trans- ferred from Scott: Wilson Weis, Joe Dence, L. C. Clark, Leo Robie. A. J. Brown, Watson Welever, William Rohr, L. G. Nuber, Howard Phipps, and George Rohrer. Dr. Lehnert also attended. Where To Find Lost Articles Lost anything? Go to the office and find it. With the help of Charles C.La- Rue and the public address system, many articles of value were found last year. Through the cooperation of the honest students, this is sure to be a success again. Turn in lost articles and seek your own. Don't forget, if you pay cash for your Activities' ticket, you will save twenty-five cents. , BEAR TALES Welcome back, Woodwardites, and hello, freshman!

School-Hollywood Version Term: The school term usually con- sists of three days. The day just be- fore the all-important football game, the day of the annual danceg and the day the hero passes all his exams with flying colors. Classes: They are made up of beau- tiful, but dumb, girls and handsome men. The classes begin about two seconds before they end. Nobody does any homework because they're too busy capturing the bandits who are adways around when the hero's girl has a date. Faculty: The teachers are com- posed of a sharp-tongued, benevolent, old gent who is the principal, an old meanie who goes modern and be- comes an easy-going jitterbugg and a gorgeous young gal who falls for the football coach who consequently ignores her. Students: The pupils consist of the hero, heroine, a conceited football giant, a toughie, a sissy, and the hero's best pal, who is in love with the heroine and a hussy who trys to vamp the hero. Weather: The raw elements show up in a beautiful fall day when the team wins the big game of the season and a just too, too divine spring af- ternoon on which everyone seems ex- tremely happy to be in school. Conclusion: School is a wonderful place with pretty girls and handsome men, two second classes, football games, and dances. There's only one minor detail I forget. You see, this all happens in Hollywood! IT'S YOU Freshmen here, Freshmen there, Stuttering 'bout their many cares. Sophomores who have grown so tall, You'd never know them at all.

NEEDS YOUR SUGGESTION, STUDENTS, TO SOLVE THIS QUESTION Have you heard of the B. U. C., the most vital thing this side of the sun? It is, to us Woodwardites, the most important, the most stressed thinggin the world, next to studies of course. It has been heard of at every previous mass meeting and football game We are prouder of it than of practically any other of our scholastic ventures. This year, our band, more than ever before, needs new uniforms. Thus the B.U.C., the Band Uniforms Campaign, has been launched to insure the band's good appearance to compliment its rich music. Other schools, Libbey and DeVi1biss, have been in the same dire necessity as Woodward and, with the cooperation of every teacher and student have suc- , cessfully bought their uniforms. Our goal is 851500. However, it wont be necessary to start from scratch. The last senior class has left S100 to begin the campaign and Principal Charles C. LaRue will personaly contribute 3100. But how can the remainder be at- tained? Suggestions have been made: a certain amount required of each tea- cher and student, an appeal to parents, entertainment. What can you do to further the campaign as soon and as quickly as possible? Even though you don't toot a trumpet or beat a drum, make the B. U. C. your drive as a representative of your school and band. Put your shoulder to the wheel. Deposit any sug- gestions you happen to have in the Tatt- ler box, outside of 122. Hurry, hurry, hurry! The deadline is Wednesday, September 24. NEW STAFF TAKES OVER '42 YEARBOOK Douglas Is Editor, Kerr Is Assistantg Sheline Appvoints Others R. K.fSheline Appointed b R. K.

A student body with a winning spirit. Woodwardites who faithfully believe their team has some- thing to offer. Faith in the gridders is as essential in the game as the defenseless pigskin. For over six years the Bears have been stumped in every city contest. A school as large as Wood- ward wasn't able to produce a team with the en- during strength to hold back the other city teams. From the very beginning, school spirit has been decreasing, until now it stands at the lowest level ever known. This year the Athletic Association has Eurchased new uniforms, making the team the est dressed outfit in the city. The weight of our team is greater this season, and does somewhat compare to the weight of the other squads. The odds at the game with Libbey tonight are about balanced. However, we must face facts. Our team probably isn't as capable, but we can show them that we still have faith and spirit backing our fighting boys. Attend the showing! Don't let the Bears down.They look to you for support. Let's make that old school spirit rise to the hundred per- cent mark. We Need More Band And Orchestra Members S IN previous years, the numbers of pupils in Woodward's band and orchestra is decidedly too small for the number of students in the school. Since there are pupils who can play a mu- sical instrument but are not in either of the classes there is no reason for this shortcoming. Students who feel that they are too good to join one of these organizations should be willing to do so, as they can contribute their musical ability to groduce an artistic achievement together with mem- ers less talented than they. On the other hand, if a student feels he isn't accomplished enough, both classes oder plenty of room for his or her improvement. Either of these subjects is considered a full unit. If you are one of these slackers, join either the band or the orchestra now. Help make Woodward's musical program outstanding. Seniors Make Dates Now ENIORS SHOULD make appointments for their pictures now. The sooner this is taken care of, the sooner the Saga will be able to go to press. Dates for the girls are being given by Sadie Doug- las and Lois Roth. Handlingjhe boys are Jack Hen- zlsr and Royal Kerr. This group, all members of the Saga Staff, will gladly help any senior in se lecting a date. At the time of the appointment, a down payment of one dollar must be paid. This is necessary since this payment assures each senior of his proofs. Come on, seniors, let's be conscientious about this thing. Let's make our dates now. Into the Hall of Fame goes this week the students of Woodward who have been conscious of their du- ty to the school. They are the ones who have thrown t e refuge into the containers. Into the Hall of Oblivion goes every student who hgfdt done his part in making Woodward present- a e. Future Fantasies Completely Baflled by what to write about our Woodwardites, I made my way to my favorite fortune teller and bribed him to lend me a helping hand. As I gazed into his crystal ball, I was amazed to find myself looking into the future of 1951. Seeing a group of tents in the distance I immediately began to investigate. Upon entering the camp, for it was a camp, I saw-guess who? Principal La- Rue in a super-swell uniform, sticking pins into a map. I questioned him hes- itantly about his occupation, whereup- on he explained that the draft was still on, and after getting tired of ordering his kids ab aut , he accepted a com- mission of a general in the army. Other members of his company included Jack Taylor, Leo Robie, and Howard Phipps who were busily conducting drills. I looked about and recognized Jim Mund, Marvin Hahn, Ed Sloan, and Al Grill, among the buck privates. In a corner all by himself, sat poor Louis Kaczmarek soaking his feet and bemoaning the fact tlhat Marcella was not there to comfort im. A captain came toward me and asked me what I was doing roaming the camp without a pass. Glory be! It was Clyde Meek. I explained my mission as he took me by the ear and led me to see Captain Amie Miller. She ,was found drilling army hostessesg Ethel Johnson, Marian Mundwiler, Eleanor Nowak, and Helen Zukowski. They eagerly wel- comed me and invited me to join their corps. Unfortunately I had a pimple on my nose that made me ineligible. Finally I glanced at my watch. It said lunch time and so did my stomach. I marched back double time and came back to the present. Ethics Of A Greenie Hot off the press comes news that Miss Sassy Senior. Woodward's greatest critid, has written a book called, Ethics of a Greenie. This publication deals entirely with the--shall we be as bold as to say greenhorns? Auntie Sassy kindly summar- ized her book, using two categories, the do's and the don'ts. Every frosh take heed! Auntie Sassy is esgecislly looked upon for advice.

I'd always remember to be courteous in school, home, or on the street. I'd never let my shirt hang out from my trousers. I'd never stand up a girl for a dance. I'd always be grateful I wasn't a girl. If I were a girl: I'd never wear dark, messy finger nail polish. I'd remember not to nag my boyfriend. I'd never wear lipstick in a dark smear. d I'd keep the seams of my stockings straight all ay. I'd always be grateful I wasn't a boy. INQUIRING REPORTER When news of a gossible strike leaked out, stu bents worried, teac ers mourned, anb Papa LaRue weeped. Finally a ra of sunshine cleared t he way, and students came hack to school as usual. Darn it! Nevertheless, your reporter cornered sever al stu- dents and had them reveal how they would have spent their time if their vacation would have been extended. Here they are: Virginia Best-Sre I'd go to the Granada. Thomas Dalzell-Jr.- I wouldn't be in school, I know! Alice Nowinski-Sr.- I'd join the Navy if they'd let me. Dick Knoke-Sophf Play football. Robert Williams-Fr.- Go home and sleep. Eleanor Sieczkowski-Sr.- I'd go to the Trianon every night if it were open.

My first assignment and the feature editor says to write a feature story and have it in on the deadline. Blindly I nodded and went forth into the realms of Woodward. Gotta find feature, gotta find feature. The thought kept running thru my head. It was maddening-torturing my mind-gnaw- ing at the dusty, dusty depths of my mind. Then suddenly a thought broke through that immove- able wall. Wouldn't it be funny if the walls of the school were pink and the ceilings blueg if the ice cream and potato chips were sold for a button and two pins?mGolly, but my head feels awfully light. Wonder if Papa LaRue will let me take off the next two weeks. Maybe Miss Savage will excuse me from homeroom. Ouch! My blissfull thinking has been ended.

Ill IF IF A meeting of cross country candi- dates were held in Coach Watson Wel- ever's room Monday after school. an as as New publicity campaigns have jumped up calling attention to high school football. Due to the University of Toledo games the high school atend- ance has slumped. Considerable work is being done in trying to raise the attendance to its old mark. -x 1: It The Bears have upped their average in weight of dine. Last year they were the lowest in the city, now they are averaging about 180 lbs.

Frosh Begin Practice Under Clark, Schedule Announced Thirty-three freshmen reported to L. C. Clark, head mentor of the frosh squad, Tuesday and drew t h e i r uni- forms. Coach Clark announced that the Cubs would probably have a six game sched- ule. Although he was not positive, he named DeVilbiss, Waite, Libbey, Cen- tral, Whitmer, and possibly Adrian, as opponents. The latter has just formed a freshman squad which is a dark horse. Most of the games are to be played on the Bear's field, however some of them will be at their opponents' home ground. ' Skull practice is held if weather is bad, but Mr. Clark announced that they would work out on the gridiron every night in good weather. COWBOYS MEET WOODWARD TO OPEN LOCAL GRIDIRON CHAMPIONSHIP RACE Bear Reserves Meet Waite Cubs Tonight On Home Field Out of the 30 hopeful reserves,eleven of the crop will ehcounter the Waite Indians in a game to be played after school next Friday on Woodward's field. Of the six games to be played, this may be the hardest of the season. A good showing of fans is expected to be on hand to send them off on their try for the city reserve championship. Freshmen will be glad to know that these are the only major sports events held which are free to the public. Coach Welever as yet has been un- able to choose a team, but he expects to have a good starting lineup for the first game. E The Polar Cubs will encounter most of their foes on home grounds, having only drawn two trips the entire year. Varsity Coach Jack Taylor will no doubt be on hand to see his 1943 ma- terial work out under the cross fire of Waite. Clean Up, Clerical Jobs Are Sources Of Work For N. Y. A. About 135 young people over the age of 16 will be hired as N. Y. A. workers this year. First choice is usually given to seniors who are in need of financial help. This is not always possible be- cause of the lower classmen who are also in need. When assigned to the va- rious teachers, they are employed in many different jobs such as: door guards during the lunch hours, tool room boys in the work shops, clerical work including the correction and re- cording of class papers, and clean-up work in the chemistry laboratory.

Vorderburg Cites Team's Chancesg Krell, Captain, Submits To Interview Vorderburg With that bewildered look that con- fronts all greenhorns , Elmer Vorder- burg, newly appointed assistant to Coach Jack Taylor, stated, I like Woodward, but I think I'm still as much confused as the freshmen. Born a demon of sports in Toledo a few years back, he attended Libbey high school where he participated in football, basketball track. He obtained his final education at Carnegie Insti- tute of Technology. This athletically inclined wizard totes 205 healthy pounds around on his 5' 1035 chassis. Has brown hair and for some reason he does not know the color of his eyes, personally I think they are green. Although he wouldn't stick his neck out to make a definite prediction, he did say we had great possibilities this yeacr and hoped, me too, that Woodward would defeat Libbey in their opening battle. He comes to Woodward from Scott high where he assumed the duties of assistant football coach and taught science, shop, and physcialtraining. His first teaching assignment took him to Birmingham grade school. In addition to his coaching duties , Mr. Voderburg will teach Every Day Living and 'general science to round out his day here at Woodward. He preferred not to be quoted as to the teams we would have an even chance over, but he did say we had a Krell Whenever Woodward is in a pinch, and needs yardage, they call on Bob Krell, dynamic fullback and this year's varsity captain. Bob has been playing varsity ball for two years and sp ort s a letter in it. Cappy, as he is called by his team- mates, tips the bathroom scales at 155 and stretches 5'6!j into the air. Green eyes and corn-colored locks round out the rest of this varsity's hope's phy- sique. Bob attributes his muscles to the fact that he drove a truck this summer. But--when it comes to girls, Bob says, No sir! And besides the coach wouldn't like it: Cap would rather eat any way. incidentally he puts milk at the very op. Bob is not the only Krell that has football inclinations, his brother, Don, was also a Woodward star a few years ago. When asked about the team's chances this year, Woodward's new captain re- sponded, We're not making any title promises, but we're going to win games. chance. rFirst Intra - City Battle Opens With Libbey- Woodward Tilt Woodward and Libbey open the city race tonight when the Cowboys will face a much heavier and faster Polar Bear squad than they did last year. Nine boys returning from last year's varsity have worked hard, along with the other tryouts, in hopes that their name will be called when coach Jack Taylor reads the starting lineup to them about 8:25 tonight. 'Those return- ing are: Captain Bob Krell, Pottrezbow- ski, Zychowicz, L. Burns, B. Burns, Crosby, Frankowski. Pierce, and Golem- biewski. Members of last year's reserves trying for a regular varsity position are: Komasinski, Kaczmarek, Peasecki, Ja- godzinski, Wisniewski, Bucher, Bunker, Intagleota, Boggs, Sloan, Cramer, Reste- gewski, Kadorone, Santus, Wantke, Martin, and Puls. The Cowboys have been making a great showing in their pre-season games, but it is the goal of Woodward to lower their rating. . The Bears will go on the field with a line that will average 180 pounds, and a fast, tricky, and enthusiastic back- field. Libbey's team is much heavier than the one that put the Cowboys in third place last fall. The Libbey's back- field is fast and plenty of action can be expected when the Cowboys meet Wood- ward's city title threats under the bright lights tonight. As this will be the first game played this season, a large crowd is expected to turn out. BEARETTE FACTS Girls' swimming classes will meet at the Y.W.C.A. every Thursday during seventh hour. It is necessary to have seventh hour study and only juniors and seniors are eligible to participate. l C 0 Senior, junior, and sophomore girls will begin their intra-mural season playing hit-pin baseball and freshman with schlag ball. Girls from the leaders class will referee the games.

INSTRUCTOR TELLS ALL IN INTERVIEW Miss Maryan Larkin Reveals Dog Her Prize Possession and Chum Brownish red hair, brown eyes, and a contagious smile are the charming and unusual qualities of Miss Maryan I. Larkin, newest addition to Wood- ward's faculty. Miss Larkin teaches world history and everyday living. She formerly taught English at Sherman School. Born in Toledo, a graduate of Waite, Miss Larkin received her Bachelor of Arts degree at Heidelburg College, in Tiffin, Ohio. When asked of her opinion of Woodward, Miss Larkin replied, I like it a lot, but it doesn't seem ex- actly new to me because there are many students here whom I taught at Sherman. Miss Larkin's champion collie, Art Haven Duke, might be called her most prized possession and favorite pal. For exercise and sports, Miss Lar- kin turns to cycling on her own bi- cycle, and horseback riding at Pearson Park. One of her favorite pastimes is oainting, at which she is quite tal- ented. In college, Miss Larkin painted ill the scenery for class plays and quite a few murals. And so Miss Larkin enters Wood- .vard as a faculty freshman.

He certainly knows how to control that car ef his when he's going fast. He never thinks of obey- ing a stop sign or is he aware of a pedestrian in the street. Jo nny goes to Woodward. Everyday he drives his father's car to school. And everyday he races down that street between the school and the football field. He's done that for two years now and nothing happened. Yesterday Johnny hit someone .The person he struck was hurt rat er badly. Now Johnny isn't as careless as he used to be. That accident could have been avoided. If John- ny would have been careful, he wouldn't have hit anyone. Fortunately no one has been hit by an automo- bile behind our school. But one of these days, some- one is going to be struck. Let's kee our record clean. Every student that drives should make it his responsibility to see that a driving speed of 15mi. per hr. be maintained on this roa . Let's not be Johnny I-Don't-Cares. Everyone Should Buy A Saga Now HE SAGA sales campaign is well on its way. By now, every Woodward student should be acquainted with our year book, the Saga. It is edited by some of our own pupils, is print- ed in our own Print Shop, and is an accomplish- ment of which we are all proud. What better way could we cooperate and show our appreciation than by buying a Saga immediately? Last year's sales totaled 925. This year, 1,100 will be published to be sold. The annual should be a must for every freshman, sophomore, junior and senior. Sucha keepsake is well worth while if only for sentimental reasons. Much enjoyment may be had while reminising in the future years, to look back at the old class- mates and faculty in the Saga. It is also useful for informative reasons. The com- bination ofthe Saga and Tattler is a feature boasted by Woodward alone. So come on , kids: Let's show some of our school spirt by making this sagacious purchase today. Budget Your Time CC OSH! I can't go with you tonight because I have to do too much crammingf' Are you one who repeatedly m ake s such a state- ment? Do you put oh' your homework so you have to study until the wee hours of the morning, the night before a test? Ifyour answer is yes you can look at yourselfas a member of the tribe known as loafers. The only reason we have any so called loafers to spoil the reputation of our school is because a few stu ents insist on Batting on' their homework. The assignments given y the teachers aren't hard. The only reason you can't do them is because you don't try. These lazy students oan't be rated c a p a b l e, tolerant, persevering, or any rating which good students work hardfto attain. Of course, because no one can depend on them, they are merely outcasts in a field o activit . Come on kids, budget your time so that you can find place for both school and outside activities.And remember the old adage, Where there's a will, there's s way. PRINCIPAL POINTS I I Neighborly Notes When we analvze our enrollment this I, fall we find ourselves about two hundred students fewer than last year at this D ' time and about three hundred fewer than we expected from our choice cards - of last May. This is not due to fewer new students, as our freshmen class is as large as last year. Our loss in enrollment is in the upper classes. Boys and girls who left school last June have found jobs and feel that they cannot afford to leave them and return to school. I sincerely hope they will not regret their decision but I am quite fearful that many of them will do so. The few dollars which these boys and girls make now, can in no measure be weighed against an ed- ucation. The twenty-three hundred of you who are either returning or entering for the first time should highly resolve that nothing except sickness or death will keep you from school. There never has been a time in the History of our Country when we need education so much. It is really our first line of de- fense. Let's be serious about our school work. Let's find out all possible facts about our coun ry and other countries and about our government and other governments. Let's learn to think and make decisions for ourselves so that we may become in- telligent citizens. Our actual work in classes is of course very im- portant. There are, however, other values that are the indirect results of our organization into this great community. We have splendid opportunities to learn loyalty, cooperation and tolerance, which are foundation stones of our democracy. In The Mail Dear Million Dollar Baby, I'm spending all my time at The Big Store in Sun Valley Serenade. While there, I met Mr. Dynamite, who was with Too Many Girls. Later he was Caught In The Draft and was sent to the City for Conquest. Ringside Masie still goes with Tom Dick and Harry, but That Hamilton Woman offers stid' competition. Maisie's hair is the usual Strawber- ry Blonde but she still acts like a Very Young Lady who is Love Crazy. I came across the Ziegfeld Girl from Our Town. She keeps company with Sergeant York, who thinks of nothing but how soon he can Gnd a little Time Out For Rhythm. I have to close now, because I'm expecting Belle Starr and Doctor Kildare. All three of us are going on a Man Hunt. Remember to Kiss the Boys Goodbye for me. The Girl of the Golden West Kittie Foyle. Flashes From London This is London calling. In an effort to bring you a clear picture of London today, a chronicle from an average Englishman's diary follows: Nothing can beat fish and chips for breakfast, so off we trot to the nearest pub. Pretty barmaid, Mary Zingg, serves us, trying to get rid of that per- sistent bar fly, Robert Kubicki, who only wants two straws more feven straws are being rationedl for his coke. Then on to the store, we passed a bomb crater where Lillian Sodd is receiving swimming instruc- tions from Watson Welever. We seem to have quite a busy day clerking since Bette Davis has heard a rumor to the effect that garters will soon be classed as a luxury. Zaharo Ladas is therefore buying our entire stock of rubber bands, complaining mean- while that the bobby, Ralph Rozanski, is entirely too generous in tacking tickets for overdue parking on her bicycle, which she must ride now, since that gas, oil tycoon, Bob Domito is only selling petrol to those motorists who have no more than two fiat tires. Working overtime, because of the gas mask rush for the Halloween season, we find the blackout al- ready black as we drag ourselves shelterward. Odds And Ends My girl has naughty eyes---they're both bad. Her teeth fell out during a tennis game and so she lost the set. She's the daughter of the regiment and she's some company. It's better to be a widows second husband then her first. They call her Murine---she's a cure for sore eyes. Words of a dying Captain of a rum boat: Don't give up the ship-ment. He called his girl a wood-nymph because she was a little knotty. They find fault with the editor, The stuff we print is rot, The paper is as peppy as a cemetery lot.

Air Raid It droned overhead. I lcoked up attempting to search out the assailant. Obviously I was the only one that knew of the seemingly tiny, but bother- some aerial attacker. It must be downed, I decided, so I sounded the alarm. Brilliant lights tore the darkness into shreds as a hurried defense was pre- pared. My brother, who was in my company,han- ded me my death-dealing instrument and listened in silence. The lights searched the foe from his hea- venly hang-out as we pointed our weapons. Ah, at last he was in range I fired and the enemy dived to his death. My brother and I returned to our slu m b er, content with the knowledge that we would not be bothered by the mosquito any more.

BEARS TAKE ROAD FOR SECOND GAME Woodward To Meet Marion Tonight In First Travel Tilt The Polar Bears of Woodward will travel by bus to the Marion Harding game tonight still smarting under a 30-6 walloping given them by Libbey. Marion, usually a fast team, is just about equal with the Bears in weight, so it should be a pretty good game. They boast a 185-pound line average while the backs tote 168. Woodward's averages run about the same. Woodward didn't look too good against Libbey Friday night. How- ever, they are playing a fine brand of ball this year. Should the Bears manage to win over Harding they will have accomplished a difficult feat. However, Marion is a tough, scrappy outfit not used to also ran games.

THE WOODWARD TATTLER BEAR CUBS LOSE TO HOLLAND TEAM Local Team D e f e a t s Polar Bears, 6-0., in Hard Fought Battle The Polar Bear Reserves lost their opening game of the current season last Friday afternoon, to Holland High School, by a 6 to 0 score. Following is the starting line-up for the Bear Cubs : Left end, Malone. Left tackle, Swaya. Left guard, Komisarak. Center, Ustacyski. right guard, Mullinix. Right tackle, Rychlewski. Right end, Rose. Quarterback, Ranier. right half, Staldner. Left half, Paradyce. Fullback, Puls. Substitutes that entered the game for Woodward were Knierem, Tigges, Gust, Kestling, Knoke, Schull, Scott, Daniels, Jurski and Cramer. Taking possession of the ball early in the first quarter the Woodwardites marched to Holland's five-yard line where their attempt to score was halted by the local eleven. Fumbling of two passes by ends in the clear spoiled the Bears' second threat on the goal. In the second quarter the Reserves rushed the ball to Holland's eight- yard stripe where they failed to score on a first down pass and three line plays. Never once threatening in the last half the Woodward boys gave way to the Holland lads. Several completed passes, one good for thirty yards, took the pigskin to VVoodward's eight- yard line where a wide end run on the next play scored the winning ouchdown. The attempt for the ex- tra point failed. The game failed to yield any out- standing players among the light- weight squad, but showed Coach Wat- son Welever that a lot of condition- ing and hard work had to be done to give the Reserves a first class team. Track Schedule Announced Following is the schedule for the 1941 Polar Bear cross country squad. September 24 Libbey vs. DeVilbiss Scott vs. Waite Woodward bye October 1 Libbey vs. Waite Scott vs. Woodward DeVilbiss bye October 8 Waite vs. Woodward DeVilbiss vs. Scott Libbey bye October 15 Libbey vs. Woodward DeVilbiss vs. Waite Scott bye October 22 Libbey vs. Scott DeVilbiss vs. Woodward Waite bye Frankowski, Bear Lineman, ' Sees '42 Bears As Best Yet The persons who could best describe Cliff Frankowski are the backfield men of Woodward's foes. Only too well do they know the wallop this senior packs when he tackles. Pushing 5 feet 11 inches of blond wa- vy hair into Woodwards atmosphere this senior gives his all to Woodward except his heart, which we are sorry to report, is in the hands of a certain De- Vilbiss gal name of Mary Markwood. Cliff who holds stew on his Must have list, plays either end or tackle positions. He has played three years as a Bear lineman. This 190 pound star says that Wood- ward has the best team he has ever seen and with its new hard hitting line a game is in sight for 1942. Asserting teamwork as its mainstay, Cliff believes the Bears will show its heels to at least one foe.

NEW TEACHER TELLS OF OWN RADIO HOUR Miss Marjorie Hamilton Studied In France, Italy, Oberlin The large light rooms of Wood- ward have made a great impression on me, said Miss Marjorie, com- mercial law and every day living teacher, who formerly taught sales- manship and law at Waite for the last five years where the rooms are much smaller. As social director and publicity manager of a Chicago hotel, Miss Hamilton planned dances, games and other recreational activities for the guests, ran an art gallery, wrote articles for musical magazines on concerts held in the hotel and con- ducted her own hour on the air three times a week over station WAAF. On her vacations, she has repre- sented the Redpath Bureau in Ohio selling lectures and concerts. She studied music for several years in France and Italy after Mussolini came into power but before he led the Italian people into war. The Italians are so gay that it is a shame to see them crushed by death, war and fear, , she stated. Miss Hamilton received her degree from Oberlin. After graduation, she taught mathematics and economics at Scott. Among her hobbies are golf, riding and mystery stories. Her favorite color, as you may have perceived from many of her clothes, is red.

ARMY TO GET RED CROSS BOOKS Campaign To Gather Books To Commence Soong Novels Wanted The Woodward Red Cross is spon- soring a campaign to gather books to send to an army camp. As yet, no committee has been set up to be in charge of this. Mrs. Mary O'Brien, who is adviser of the group, intends to select pupils who have second hour free, to aid her. The books for the drive, which will start in two weeks, will be collected in each home room and sent to room 314. Those to be used should not be deep literature. Light reading of any kind, such as novels, are wanted. Miss Stella Sawtelle, head of the library, will dig out any out-dated books which are not used often and give them to the Red Cross. There- fore from classroom to the library, everyone in school will be trying to further this cause. Mrs. O'Brien stated that in one army camp there are 2,500 men en- listed and only 800 books available. Since Woodward can't send to all the camps, books will be sent where they are most needed. ' The Red Cross will also collect tin foil which is needed in the National Defense program. The money re- ceived from this will be used to buy used books.

The type of court that this school has had in the ast few years has proved not only to be poor but as far as prevention of oifenoes, it has been no good at all. This is not entirely the fault of the Student Council. It's fault really liesin the fact that very few teachers are willing to conduct penalty periods. That is the only reason for such a deci- edlydpoor system of government we had in Wood- war . Other schools have excellent student courts because they have a fa c u l t y a n d student Council who are conscientious enough to see that for good school government a school must have cooperation. Let our Student Council begin now to make plans for a good court. With the aid of the aculty, this can be done. We can have good government here if we make up our minds to the act that it is needed badly. Band Needs Your Support gg ELP THE BAND raise money to get new uniforms. This seems to be the cry re- sounding throughout the building now. The band needs uniforms and yet they can't get them. The reason being, because the uniforms are expensive, and they haven't the money to buy them. This is quite a predicament now but it could be easily overcome in a short time. The band sponsors many activities to raise funds, and with the loyalty of the vast majority of the student body the needed currency could be obtained. Therefore support the program to raise money for this cause. Attend the programs,movies,and other activities, for in the long run you will be well re- aid when you gaze at the spectacle which the band will make when it marches down the field. Let's all join in with a mighty effort to support She campaign to raise money to buy band uni- orms. Yoo-hoo! Wait For Me! CC OO-HOOL Oh, Yoo-hoo! That couldn't be General Lear's famous yoo-hoo battalion passing by ,could it? No, it's just the rumble of the mumble between class periods. Did you ever take time out to consider that we only have four minutes in which to change classes? Yet into four minutes Woodward students can squeeze enough Yoo-hoo and Wait for me to cause a major earthquake in Japan. Who would have thought that the broken record would run again in our dear old halls? But it does, each morning, noon and 2:30 P.M. the competitive spirit runs in our school, so everyone tries to outdo everyone else, if not in the matter of grades, then in the matter of speech and noise. Teachers often complain that pupils just will not speak up loud enough during recitations. If they only oould see these same pupils in the halls with open mouths, screaming at the top of their lungs, swoons would again be back in style. P ease, let's subdue our vocal cords just a little and preferably think with our minds. instead of our mouths. Woodward Whispers Now that we're back in the swing of school rou' tines, there's plenty this reporter has to relate to you worthy colleagues. as a an Already the girls are taking notice of Woodward's football heroes.

The first football game of the year, so Lily, her two girl fr i e n d s, and her binoculars, start off to attend. When Lily makes her appearance at the stadium and sees no signs of the Bears, she almost hysterically exclaims, If our team doesn't hurry, they won't have time to practice. After a little deep meditation, she came through with the brilliant idea: Maybe if the team out there practices long enough, they'll be too tired to play, Are those hats they're wearng a new style? I was just wondering because I haven't seen the boys at our school wear- ing them yet. The kick-oE-- but Lily's too busy trying to adjust binoculars to see that handsome blond in the oppo- site stands. The ball carrier is running down the field hotly pursued by the members of the opposite team. Both stands are in an uproar--but it was time for Lily to apply her make-up. During the remaining few minutes of the second quarter, Lily decides to concentrate on the game with the unanimous app roval of those within hear- ing distsnce. Just when it looks as ifthe Bears mean business, the crack ofthe gun is heard' Scream ing, Lily declares: He can't do that! Why he ought to be arrested for shooting that boy! Doesn't he know enough about the game to know that the player is supposed to run away with the ball? Finally Lily is calmed down---but only after everything short of strangulation. Then came the half. At the sound of the next whistle, the playing is resumed, but as usual Lily isn't watching. This time she's trying to get some popcorn out of her hollow tooth. At last, to the delight of those sitting by Lily, the game is over. When Lily heard this news, she was made a self-appointed inquiring reporter to find out the results of the game. She found out---then dejectedly plodded hom- ward unaccompanied by her two companions, who in some miraculous way got themselves detached during the last quarter without Lily's knowledge.

A new streamlined bus icked u the . P P Woodward group at the back entrance, already a half hour late. Before they had been gone a few moments, the motor filed, but the driver got it start- ed again, only to brake down complete- ly, yet within the bounds of Toledo. A phone call was made for another bus, and it arrived, showing only. too -plain- ly that it had been sitting idle in the garage for a long time. The players, coaches and managers made the trans- fer into the dusty old bus and started off again. Most ofthe team talked about the ensueing battle and a few of the braver ones sang. Although getting started an hour late the bus arrived in Marion only a half hour late. There was no time to spare so the boys had a light lunch and went directly to the playing field where they taped themselves up and prepared fOr the tussle. The game began at 8:00. Both teams played hard ball all the WHY through with Woodward having the advantage in the first half by five first downs to Harding's three. Although proving a definite threat, the Polar Bears failed to push the pigskin over the goal line' Harding's lone score came as the re- sult of a blocked punt. The Polar Bears, after being held fast for three downs on their own thirty yard line were forced to punt. Krell got the ball off and it bounced outside on the fifty yard line. Woodward was otfsides. The Marion captain elected to take the penalty and the Bears has to punt again after hav- ing the ball set back five yards. Again Krell took the ball but this time a Hard- ing end broke through to block the kick while a linesman scooped up the ball and ran unmolested for the score. Only two players were injured during the game. Sanderson center, in the last quarter of play and Kadrone, tailpack, in the first quarter. Observants at the game repeated that the team looked in excellant condition and much better fitted for future city encounters. The players, after the game, retired to a hotel in Marion, where a big meal had been prepared for them. Twenty- eight very weary boys returned to the school at 2:15 Saturday morning and each had checked in his suit and head' ed for home by 2:30. Reserves Tie Hard Fought Battle With Indians, 13 -13 The Polar Bear squad tied the jun- ior eleven from Waite High, 13 to 13, in an evenly fought battle last week. Early in the first quarter the Blue and White lads took advantage of a blocked kick on the Indians 10 yard line. Failing to carry the mailuthrough on the first two downs, Ken Gust finally got away for the initial score, No other threats were made on the goals till in the second quarter when Waite tied the score, 6 to 6,by scor- ing on four plays from the 5 yard marker. Not until the third period did the Pur- ple and Gold take the lead, when they ran the ball over for their second touch' down and converted the extra point' score 13 to 6, Waite. In the final period Paradyze entered for Woodward and ran the ball to the two yard line where the Bears took the pigskin over and Paradyze plunged over for the extra point tying the score. Malone, left end along with hard run- ning backs Knierem and Paradyze, played heads up football. Tonight the reserves tackle the Iriah from Central High school. Toledo's Youngest Varsity Player Reveals All In Quiz Frank Piasecki, charging Bear Tackle holds the distinction of youngest play ers in'theToledo Scholastic League.

Lois Babe Roth President Of Girls' Club, Interviewed I think the Girls' Athletic League is one of the best clubs in school because it gives every girl a chance to become active in school sports, remarked Lois Roth, the club's five foot, two inch, president. Babe, as Lois is called by her friends admits that her favorite hobby is cutting out newspaper pictures of a certain DeVilbiss lad. Dancing rates second, especially when a band plays I Don't want to Set the World on Fire, which is tops with her. Although she delights in eating ice cream, Lois weighs only 112 pounds. Either her basket ball or her never tasted spinach, accounts for this. Lois, who is seen with Margaret Ann Schindler and Ethel Johnson is notonly president of the G. A.

TWO SALES TEAMS READY FOR FIGHT Magazine Campaign Leader Expresses Optimism On Outcome Other schools can do it and so can Woodward, stated Clyde Van Tassel, chairman of the magazine subscrip- tion campaign. He added that this drive, which will be continued just eight days, not only will help secure the band's uniforms, but contains other profits. The project proves to be educational as it offers good read- ing for both children and adults, who subscribe for the magazines. Stu- dents will also benefit by the experi- ence gained in contacting people about sales. Besides individual prizes, the school hopes to be one thousand dol- lars to the good. In order to reach this goal, classes have been divided into two groups, the Blues, under Mrs. Kathryn Schu- ler, and the Whites, under Floyd Lords. The Blue group or Schuler's Sure Shots will compete to the bit- ter end with the White group, other- wise known as the Lambast1ng, Larruping Lords, when representa- tives of the winning side will receive a weekly ticket for the noon movies. Mrs. Schuler says, The S. S. S.'s are confident that they will reach their goal and hope the L. L. L.'s will run a close second. Mr. Lord claims, I hope the Blues get an enormous number of subscrip- tions, but I hope the Whites obtain more. Results of the teams will be placed on master sheets on the bulletin board in the corridor and will also be given in the morning announcements. - Lack Of Boy Guards Delays Student Council Hall Patrol There has been a delay in the organ' ization of the Student Council hall pa- trol because of the small number of boys who signed for it.

Many students area crring five subjects and gym twice a week, which leaves them only a few study hours. During exams or other tests, gym classes are usually bummed. Not because of the desire to bum a class, but because of tests for other hours that should be looked over. Girls taking bowling and swimming only have gym once a week. Why is this limited only to them? I see no reason why healthy students should waste time they could use for study in playing silly games,which at best aren't interesting, Why not let students who are physically fit choose for themselves whether they would rather have gym than a study hour. A Junior If the Junior would spend more time studying after school than bum- ming, he would have no cause for com- plant. Besides, gym is required by state law,--The Editor. Dear Editor, All this talk of betterment of schools and we students of Woodward walk around in a mess of paper, lunch, and milk bottles. I certainly don't like to be known as a student of that messy high school! Why don't we start a clean-up campaign and other schools that we, too, can have a fairly clean building during school hours. To walk over to a container is certainly not asking too much of anyone. Let's have a cleaner building. A Junior Students Choose Two New Cheerleaders At Meeting Fighting stiff competition all the way through, three aspiring cheerleaders make it difficult for the studentbodv to elect two at the mass meeting last Fri- day. Bob Hallett and Norman Abood both sophmores, nosed out Al Whitney also a sophomore. Elimination was decided by student enthusiasm, which wasjudged by Mrs. Eula Upp, Mrs. Marie Ersig, and Leo Robie. Al Whitney, though making a great showing, was tipped by Bob and Nor- man. The three finalist were the only ones to forge ahead out of seven starters. The four who dropped out were: Kenneth Eck, Bob Coon, Dorman Peck, and Bob Wysocke. The boys were coached by Jack Wil- son, Tom Marinelli, and Bob Durfey.

The advanced group is making plc- tures for recreation and bed rooms. The flowers are done in two colors and produce a natural effect. Miss Rutz was inspired by the drawings by Walt Disney and George Petty. Sloan, Newly Elected Junior President, Is Interviewed Although he is an A student, Ed- ward Kenneth Joseph Francis Sloan, newly-elected president of the junior class is definitely a he-man. Fol- lowing' in the footsteps of his father, who played football at Waite, he is a blocking back on Woodward's varsity, and is going out for basketball and tennis. Usually rather shy and quiet, this brown-eyed lad showed no hesitation when asked about his pgirl-friend. She is, of course, Ruth Schiedler, also a member of the cabinet. He is taking an enfrineer's course and is secretary of the Woodward Engineering Society. Edward hopes to become 71 teacher and coach. Preparation for this will be made in college. His mother's home-made chop suey he lists as his favorite food. Believe it or not. most of his spare time, which isn't much because of prac- tice. is spent on homework. His only hobby, he asserted, is sports. SAGA SALES DRIVE VERY SUCCESSFUL All But Twenty-Five Sagas Soldg These To Be Bought Soon Saga sales campaign has come to a successful climax with 1075 Sagas sold from a planned goal of 1100. Al- though the campaign has closed, or- ders will be taken for another week, and Raymond Sheline, Saga adviser, firmly believes that 25 more will sell themselves- Violet Lutife has been in charge of circulation. The seniors head the school with both top salesmen in that class. Dave Kornowa has the school's highest sales record, having sold over 100, and Lillian Sadd runs a close second. Both will receive a free Saga. Mr. Sheline announced that each Saga owner will have his name print- ed in gold on the cover, if they are fully paid for by February 1. Sadie Douglas, editor of this year's Saga-Tattler, feels that the campaign has been a very great success. Mr. Sheline stated that this is the largest amount ever sold. Five hundred Sagas were sold the first year they were printed, and the number has grown every year since. Betty Woods, Head of the Riding Club, Is Interviewed Five feet five of blond hombshell. Thz1t's the way to describe Betty Woods, better known as Bet, head of the riding club. Chop suey heads her food list while Tiob Blacklock tops her heart list. Wolves please her. La Wood has blue eyes and two dimples to round out her physical description. English and French head her list of favorites while history is at the top of her black list. George Rohrer is rated first on her teacher parade. Dancing is Betty's hobby and she cuts a wicked rug in case you've any to cut. South American Clubs Are Organized in History Class South American Clubs are being organized in Miss Bertha Vermilya's history classes. A committee of three will be selected every two or three weeks to quiz the class on South America. The questions are to based on the articles in the Weekly News Review called A Visit to South America. After the students read these they are supposed to be able to answer any questions put to them by the committee. After they are finished the students may ask questions of things not understood. Cafeteria Members Bake Fruit Cake For Band Fund With all the students doing their share toward securing new band uni- forms, the members of the cafeteria have decided to bake a fruit cake, giving the proceeds of the tickets sold to this worthy cause. Chances which will be sold on the cake for five cents apiece or six for 25 cents, will be distributed in all Hrst hour classes every morning of the week October 13 to 17 by mem- bers of the band.

Fathers as well as mothers should be urged to at- tend as the time has been purposely set to accom- odate them. Teachers and pupils have spent their time in preparations of interesting programs. As tickets are necessary for admittance, this year's open house will be much more organizedg providing they are distributed wisely. Both students and their parents should attend open house Wednesday night, as both will benefit from its many opportunities. Monday Is The Last Day AVE YOU DONE your bit for the B.U.C? How many sub-scriptions have you sold? Or have you been one of those slackers? One week has passed and our magazine drive has only one more day to go. If you haven't sold any as yet, you still have time to sell them over this week-end. There is no excuse for not selling any subscriptions. You can't lose anything by it, except a little ofyour time. Certainly you can do that much for your school. Our goal is 52301, that means one dollar from each student. Get out and see how many you can sell. Many of the students have sold more than one. That means we may even go over our goal. If one person can sell twenty subscriptions certainly some of you slackers can sell one. Why Take Gym AST in Voir Pop, a student sent a letter to the editor asking why he should take gym. . This student referred to gym as consisting of silly games. Perhaps the rea so n this student thought that gym was silly was because he did not know of its values. Gymis enssential. There is no getting around that fact. It teaches you respect for opponentg whether he be on the winnin or losing team. It teaches you to take defeat as weIl as victory. For the sign of a good sportsman is surely shown in his ability to uc 'apt defeat Then, too, it provides a social contact for many students who have difficulty in getting acquainted with people. It also provides a time where friends can play with one another. In reference to the letter, it states that those students who take bowling and swimming are privi- leged 1 n d 1 v i d u al s. This is not the case. Those students only have one gym period a week because that one period consist of two ordinary gym periods taken in school. Let us not take gym too lightly. It consist of a great deal more than silly games. It is just an- other factor that is helping make our characters better. A good character is an appreciative one. From now on, may we come to realize the ne- cessity of a thing that is required by state law. We now enter the finest periods of the year.

THE WOODWARD TATTLER BEARS DROP CLOSE TILT TO INDIANS Golembiewski Stands Out As Best Back On Field The Waite Indians splashed out a non too-impressive 12-6 victory over a scrap- ing Woodward squad in the Waite Bowl Friday night. Waite was forced to rally late in the fourth quarter to win over the alert Bears, who played sparkling ball. It seemed just before Waite's 89 yard touchdown march that Woodward was about to fashion one of the seasons greatest upsets. Ustaszewski recovered a fumble late in the fourth quarter but the Bears' chances were ruined when Waite in- tercepted. Nine plays later Bauman dived over tackle for the score. Woodward came through in the first stanza when Golembiewski re- turned a punt to the Waite 39. Then he went through tackle for seven and Jimmy Kaderone tore around end for a first down on the 16. Golembiewski recovered his own fumble and again floated around end to the 4. Three p sys later Golembiewski recovered his own fumble and with Indians on his heels wheeled and threwa perfect pass to Kadorone in the end zone. Wisniewski missed the point. l.e. Bucher l.t.

If it had not been for the Redskins second touchdown, the game would have been all tied up. Wood- ward has neither won nor tied Waite since 31 when the Bears defeated Waite for the first time in its athletic history. as ,F ik The Bear-Tiger tilt on the seven- teenth will be an exciting battle.

Coach Welever's charges got off to a fine start when, early in the first quar- ter Paradyze blocked a Central punt and recovered on the Irish three. A play later, Paradyze hit center for the score. The conversion failed and ended the scoring until the final quarter. Clarence Puls, speedy Reserve back, broke through center, cut sharply, and romped fifty-five yards to score. A plunge for conversion failed. Hardly had the cheers died down when Ken Ramer took aCentral kick on his own twenty-five and raced seven- ty yards to the Irish five yard line,-giv- ing a perfect exhibition of broken field running. On the next play the versatile Paradyce again plunged over for the marker. The conversion failed, b u t left the Cubs with a comfortable mar- gin of victory.

VARSITY TAILBACK SUBMITS TO QUIZ States Woodward Will Win Over DeVilbiss And Scott Lads Dynamitein a big package! Standing 5' 10 high and weighing 160 pounds, the flash who made Waite dizzy with his brilliant playing was none other than Sylvester Golembiewski, whose New Year's resolutions are made on his birthday, starting back in 1924. Sylvester is now in his fourth year. at Woodward having come from St. Adalbert's. It is no surprise to hear that sports is his favorite pastime. Last year he came up from the lightweights to play with the varsity. He also played light- weight basketball, and intends to try out for varsity basketball this year. Golembiewski backs up the Polar Bear line in the position of tailback. When asked of the team's future chances, he said that we may beat De- Vilbiss and Scott, and also put upa good game at Central. Sylvester believes that hard practice every night made possible the excellent performance last Saturday. He went on to explain that wind sprints was mostly responsible. This is runningback and forth 20 to 25 yards continuously for a numder of times. It brings about their second win which make it possible for them to last longer without their legs giving away. Golem- biewski expects the Woodward team to make the oity sit up and take notice of our gridders this year.

OUBS HOLD IRISH FROSH IN THRILLER Drozdowicz Bags Touchdown To Tie Central 6-6 Th e Woodward freshman football team got off to a good start and show- ed plenty of skill, in a hard fought game which ended in a 6-6 tie. Playing in a steady downfall ofrain, the Bear midget s held, and likewisewere held to a 0-0 score in the first quarter of play. Coming back strong in the record pe- riod of the battle, the Irish made their lone touchdown in the first few min- utes of play. An attempted run around end for the extra point failed, later in the same period the boys from Wr od- ward tied up the game vs hen Sam Droz- dowicz, quarterback center for six yards. The half ended in next two quarters threatening as Cv ntral tried mostly end runs, while Woodward hammered away at center and off tackle. Woodward's starting line up had Harrison and Ballard at ends: Oedy and Gromnicke, tackles: Mallony and Stork, guards, and Oehlers at center. Drozdo- wicz played at quarterback, Hunt at right half, Karpantey, left half and Matusiewicz, full-back. Others who also saw action were: Con- ley, Viertelbeck, Aubrey, Pappas, Bort- les, and Nowak.

It is true that faculty co-operation has at times not been what it should be. But this is not the only reason for the failure of the Student Court. One of the most important reasons is the lack of good hall patrol. 'Pupils have been slow to volunteer for this year's hall patrol. Without a de- pendable hall patrol we cannot have an efficient Student Court. The Student Council is always open to criticism and suggestions. At the same time we must have the co- operation of our school newspaper 'md students to make this the best Student Council we have had yet. The President of the Student Council. Betty Woods Selected New President of Riding Club Betty Woods has been chosen to head the riding club of Woodward and Carolyn Hainbuch has been selected as secretary. Other officers have not been elected to date. Mrs. Lucile Farrell and half of the members ride on Tuesdays between 4:30 and 5:30. Mrs. Dorothy Ma- theny and the remaining half of the students ride on Wednesdays at the same time. The students are given lessons by Barney Frazier, owner of Douglas Meadows. They are first taught to post and then to canter. They are allowed to ride five miles each week.

STUDENTS CAMPAIGN CR Y Constantly, Consistently Constructive wg i Vol. XIV Toledo, Ohio, October 17, 1941 No. 6 -E E?- BAN D FUNDS RAISED IN DIFFERENT WAYS Opening D 0 na t i 0 n Received From '41 Seniors' Activities So that every student, faculty' meni- ber, and worker of Woodward High Schol may know how money for the Rand Uniform Fund was raised, Principal C. C. La Rue has requested the Tattler to print a summary of thc various enlerprises. The first and earliest source was last year's senior class which donated approximately !li250.00. This money was collected from ring sales, the senior prom, the senior Hick Party, and other senior activities. The horse show, held on September 23 in the boys' gym, contributed 3572.75 to the fund. Two performances of Northwest Mouned Police, shown on Thursday and Friday, October 9 and 10, and sponsored by the Engineering Society, added about 33210. The foremost affair was the Maga- zine Campaign, in full swing from October 6 to 13, which netted 333452 in sales, of which Woodward is ex- ,pected to get about 40 per cent. Proceeds from the sale of tickets for the fruit cake baked by Mrs. Cecil Ashbrook and her cafeteria helpers will also go to the fund. lland members expect to wear their uniforms at the spring festival, if not before. Class Reads Dickens Book Dicken's Christmas Carol is being read by Miss Dorothy M. Warner's dramatic class. The fundamentals, make-up, scenery, and lighting effects, are to be studied. The class of 20 meets every Thursday after school. Home Living Olasses Begin Work At Webster Nursery Miss Blanche Hazelton's home living classes have begun a series of obser- vations at the Webster Nursery School. The subject of the observation is The Child In the Hime. Each pupil is required ta make five visits during the semester at 12 day intervals. The vis its take two periods of school itime and are devoteil to secret obser- vation. The students conceal them- selves behind a screen so to be out of sight of the 25 babies, all under five years of age, who attend the nursery. They watch how the children behave, and answer printed questions on the subject. After three visits they take the part of teachers to see how to deal with all possible situations. The teachers in charge of the nursery are Mrs. Ramer and Mrs. Stevis. Woodward was the first high school in Ohio to start this type ofchild study. It is popular among the students Only five schools in the United Statesgive them this privilege. The home-living classes composed of 96 girls will take this part of their subject the first semester and the boys in the Home Economics classes will have it the second semester. - Stubentls Opinions Places Woodward ChanceS High In a recnt poll taken to test students feeling towards the Woodward Bear chances of taking a city game, the fol lowing pupils were termed to be at a median with their pros. and cons. Dean Ludlow, senior, Cop a good chance to beat DeVilbiss if the Bears keep up their teamwork. Sam Shaffer, frashmang Chances just aren't so hot. Jean Mulley, junior, We should beat DeVilbiss. After the Waite game score, I'm more then sure. Ida Mae Rahe, Sophmoreg There go- ing to? And De Vilbiss is going to be No. 1 on that touchdown parade. SALES LEADERS BOB BLANK AND ELAINE ROACH REVEAL FACTS AND AMBITIONS Otlicial super salesmen of Wood- ward High School is Bob Blank, drum major of the band. Whitey, as he is better known, turned in one hun- dred dollars worth of subscriptions in the recent drive. llorn in Toledo seventeen years ago, he has spent most of his short life here, except for traveling to Michigan to spend his summers at a Boy Scout camp. He has been a member of Troop 83, Spring School, for five years and is now an Eagle Scout, the highest rank that can be obtained. Now a junior, he has been drum major here since he was a freshman. Incidentally, he was the first fresh- man drum major in Woodward. Oddly enough his ambition is to be a poultry producer. Study for this will be taken at Ohio State Univer- sity after graduation from Woodward. He also hopes to be a drum major while attending the university. Definitely sure was he of his love for a meal of fried chicken, mashed potatoes, and apple pie. The thing he dislikes the most is girls' smoking. Another sure thing is his girl friend, Marcella Flowers. About the campaign he said, It was lots of fun and for a good pur- pose. As leader of the band, I felt I had to set a good example. Rupper up in the magazine cam- paign is vivacious Elaine Roach. Elaine, at the age of 17, is a senior here at Woodward. She disclosed that her favorie sport was bicycling, and her pastime, reading. Her hobby is making money, which is proved by the fact that she managed to gain 384.00 to her credit. Elaine is 5 ft. 7 in., and when asked her weight, she replied, That's en- tirely beside the point. Her favorite food is anything eatable. R0achie, as she is sometimes called, has been a senior member of the Girl Scouts for three years. She also belongs to Zets, and the Student Council. Her favorite subject is the Tattler, on which she is co-news editor. When asked her favorite b. f. she replied that no one in particular in- terested her. Could it be that she overlooked L. K.? Upon graduating, Elaine wishes to go to Toledo University, and after- wards to Battle Creek College, where she will study a dietician's course In this year's senior elections, Elaine plans to run for senior class president.

Sellers, Ersigs Room High Per Capita With the sum total of 343490 to its credit the magazine subscription drive came to a successful close Monday, October 13. The amount of subscriptions sold by Woodward High School broke a rec- ord made by a high school in Haddon- field, N. J., that had stood for over a year. Capturing first prize on high sales was Robert Blank, who received a seventeen-jewel Bulova watch for S100 turned into the school. Coming in second place for a photo finish with S80 to her credit was Elaine Roach. She acquired a Zenith pocket radio for her effort. Based on the number of dollars turned in per capita, Mrs. Marie Ersig of the White team finished first in the home room race. For their work the students in her first hour class who have sold one or more subscriptions will be treated to a first run movie during school hours by R. Reinike, representative for the Curtiss Publishing Company. The ten high home rooms were Mrs. Marie Ersig, Guy Sutphen. Myron T. Skinner, A. R. Ritter, Miss Angela Abair, Mrs. Eula Upp, Mrs. Bianca Russell, Raymond Sheline, Wilson Weis, and Miss June Ander- son. In the daily race, the home rooms who placed first were Mrs. Marie Ersig, Guy Sutphen, and Mrs. Eula Upp, Myron T. Skinner, Mrs. Eva Leu, James Pollock, Wilson Weis, and Guy Sutphen. Each of these classes received a box of candy during the campaign. Beating out the White team under Floyd Lords by 25769, the Blue team under Mrs. Kathryn Schuler reached their goal. Representatives of the Schuler Sure Shots will receive a weekly ticket for the noon movies. Altogether the S. S. S.'s took in S2085 while Lambasting Larruping Lords only turned in iltlgilfi. The Curtiss Publishing Company will receive approximately 60 per cent of all the money collected, leaving 40 per cent for the Band Fund which totals about 551300. Seven per cent of Woodward's share goes for student prizes. Clyde Van Tassel was chairman of the magazine subscription campaign.

This is nothing new, but it always presents the fact that for some reason a minority of the stu- dents are not co-operating with the instructors to the best of their ability. Unsats do not have the meaning of failure, rather they carry s message of warning.These comments on your work, meant for your parents, are prepared with the idea of enlist- ing their aid for your own good. It is thought that perhaps you do not spend enough time on studies at home and it iscyour parents who must handle that part of your aye work. Acquaint the family with the fact that these unsats are not milestones over which there is no success. More work is a satisfactory solution. We are coming to the end of only the first quarter of school. Three more quarters remain. If you were one to receive an unset yesterday, makeup your mind now that it is the ast time. The decision is yours. Remember that an effort now will prevent worries later. The Job Is Completed ESTERDAY'S PICNIC showed, not only to our- selves but to the surrounding community, that when. we are desperate of something the stu- dent body is the group to call upon.It showed that ws can do it. This is decidedly a record. Not only have we beat the national record but we probably raised as much as or more than any school in the city in their band uniform campaign. We did a splendid job. We went into this cam- Wxgn with enthusiasm and we came out victorious. e rejoiced yesterday at the picnic for it was our reward for our work. Satisfaction is a great thing. It comes to real- ization when something is done well. We, the stu- dents, now have the satisfaction ofknowing the job we set out to do is completed. Don't Desert ' Them Now! TARTING MONDAY of last week the Student Council was in full force on hall patrol.For many years this was enacted by only the stu- den's. out this year teachers have been appointed f .r ' ch hour to supervise the guards. This plan will be efficient only if the student body and faculty c iopcrate. The students can do their part by carrying hall passes, leaving and entering the building through ihe entrance by the otIice,and by having respect at all times for the hall guards. The Student Council is the onlylaw enforcement body of Woodward, elected solely by the students. Remember, you elected these boys and girls to cre- ate and preserve the law and order every body of good citizens should have. Don't desert them now!

Woodward Smells Not only does this great institution give us a variety of courses but alsoa variation of odors. If you don't get it, read on, my fans. The Morning Scent--As you walk into this mon- ument of knowledge, on a damp, foggy dawn, the scent, better known as the prison odor, comes up and greets you. The Lunch Fragrance---About third hour that familiar pain starts gnawing at your stomach. Then along comes that smell that announces soups on. After you get weaker, as the scent plays around your none too small nose,you com- pletely lose all control and pass out. The 227 Scent--This is better known as the chem- ist's gift to the world. It sneaks up on you and stabs the appetite that arose from the former. The result is a burial without dowers. The Ofiice Aroma-This is e s p e cially made to order for the in the dog house. The Epitah of those poor unfortunates usually reads as follows: When the dean told me it was a blunder To try and be a seven day bummer To find me here is not a wonder For the safest place is six feet under. The 2:30 Freshness--This is commonly known as fresh air. When this scent comes in contact with the students,they usually lose their prison pallor. This Column Smell--Oh let's not go into that. I'm turning my job over to a skunk. r- THE :WOODWARD TATTLER FIRST PLACE GOES TO POLAR BOWLERS Strikers, Alley Cats Race Close Second and Third Positions After last Mondays bowling at the Auditorium Bowling Alleys, the Polar Bowlers pushed their way into first place.

RESERVE GRIDDERS SUBDUE BULLDOGS Woodward Hammers Scott To Submission, Led By Paradyze Another obstacle in the path of the title-bound Woodward reserves was cleared last Friday when the Bear Cubs hammered out a 14 to 0 victory over a fighty Scott team at Wood- ward's field. A biting wind that played havoc with kicking and passing coupled with a tricky T formation gave the Cubs' eleven 60 minutes of rough and tumble football before the final gun. The Cubs struck first, climaxing a 35-yard sustained drive, when burly Ed Paradyze knifed through the cen- ter to score. The conversion was suc- cessful and the half ended with the Bulldogs on the short end of a 7 to 0 count. In'thc second half the Scotters really opened a bag of tricks and bombarded the Cub secondary with passes. However, the attack bogged down on the Woodward one-yard line when Errie Rychlewski, Bear line- ma.:, recovered a fumble. Puls then kicked out of danger. lo the founh quarter Paradyze and l-Zmer1.n afernated in carrying the ball to the Scott three, where Puls tloated around end for the score. ?aradyz.e's conversion was successful. 'l he game ended moments later with Woodwardsix yards from the Scott goal line. Riding Club Lessons Begin The first lessons of the Riding Club began last week.

WE'RE GOING TO WIN TONIG-HT, STATE TWO WOODWARD BACKFIELD PLAYERS James Knierim, sophomore triple- threat backfield player on the light- weight squad, was born in Toledo 15 years ago on April 22. Jim has been an ardent sports en- thusiast since that fateful day. He is 5 feet 8 inches, totes 148 pounds around the gridiron. Giant Kewpee ' hamburgers tops the list of foods on this man's diet, is the sole and char- ter member of the Anti-Date Club, or he doesn't go out with girls. Jim intends to try out for varsity football next year. He was captain of the freshman basketball team last year and is also an ardent baseball fan and player. Graduating from Spring Grade School this versatile lad is studying for a course in engineering and would like to go to the University of Michi- gan. This lad, the youngest in the family of five, is treasurer of the German Club, member of the Engineering So- ciety, was also a member of Dave Kornowa's championship b a s e b al l team from Wilson Park this summer. Mechanical drawing tops the list of subjects for this blue-eyed, brown- haired, freckle-faced, bashful, hand- some and likeable chap. I i l When quizzed about the possibilities of the varsity squad this year Jim Stated, We'll beat DeVilbiss tonight and give Scott a good run for their money. , We're going to win that city game this year, definitely stated Harold Norman Wandtke, charging fullback of the football team when questioned about the team's pros- pects. Known as Champ he entered the world eighteen years ago on Labor Day. That's why I work so hard,' said he. Sparetime is scarce for this blue- eyed chap, with football practice after school, and work as a gas station at- tendant at night, but he did admit that his hobby was collecting pen- nies, not old or unusual pennies, but just pennies! Perhaps his love.for malted milks accounts for his six-foot frame toting 170 pounds, but during season when sweets are taboo, he'll settle for chili. The mention of eggs in any form will bring forth a sour grimace. This German descendant has had no aspirations for college, but did very grudgingly admit that he would like to take a civil service exam when of age. And he. a member of the police force. Until then I'll work ln the gas station,' he replied. His precarious driving of his '36 Ford seems to have no discouraging effect on his swarm of women ad- mirers. Usuallv. however, vou'll find him with Ray Pierce, Bing Crosby, or any member of the football team. Harold is a student and won an award last year for his essay on Clean Auditorium.

Journey Out of Low Position Still smarting under the near- victory they almost gained at Waite's expense, the Woodward Polar Bears willlclash with the Tigers from De- Vilbiss tonight at Page Stadium in what promises to be the most excit- ing game on the city league card. The 12-6 win the Indians garnered over the Bears hurt plenty. An inter- cepted pass late in the fourth period gave Waite their chance when Wood- ward was knocking at their 2-yard line. But fate closed the door in the Bears' face. DeVilbiss, on the other hand, was mowed down by a title-threatening Central team, 25-7, two weeks ago. The Bengal backs looked p'etty bad, but the line seemed all right. Bill Man, Tiger back, was just about the only ground gainer DeVilbiss had. However Rags Furney ran him a pretty close second. .The Bear line-up has not been de- cided as yet but will probably run something like this: 5575 3:2- 'lam QCDH 271: rn: : 5:2 5 bi-'ir 09755 gasses: :1rT '12gmg Q-3r'?: x'U'0 QU' :OWS 052 E 5: '5' g::m1N ima 5 - E i - 55 assess?

The iirst of these paintings was contributed in 1928, and the rest since that time. The Engineering Society, which has paid a total of 985 dollars for the pic- tures, is the oldest and the smallest club here, having only sixteen mem- bers. W. F. Rohr, adviser, said that the pastoral scene is now worth 250 dollars, while another, the winter scene, was donated by the Society Alumnae. l'hree Groups Are Working To Duplicate Colonial Style A splended example of cooperation is the remodeling of the dining room be- tween 201 and 205. The industrail arts classes are sand papering and refin- ishing the furniture and the home economics classes are making curtains lor the windows. The art department is planning the color scheme from a co- lonial patterned rug. The room is to be made into an old colonial style. The cooperation ofthese three departments is sure to beautify this little dining room, used by the home economics classes. Report On Activities Books Made By Athletic Director A. -I.

Lefty Grove Autographs Baseball For Paul Thomae After visiting in Boston, Massachu- setts, Paul Thomae, machine shop tea- cher, returned to Toledo with a base- ball. Not just a plain ordinary baseball but one autographed by Lefty Grove, the only living baseball player to have pitched over 300 games. Mr. Thomae presented it to C.C. La- Rue who has placed it in the trophy- case. That is really a success story--- from a pitcher's glove to the Woodward trophy case.

Bad Behavior At Assemblies Pointed Out By Freshman Good behavior at the assemblies has been stressed of a long time. Tom See- man, freshman, in Miss Annie Wetter- man's home living class expressed the following ideas: A list of faults in the behavior of students in assemblies arc: 1. Whistling 2. Shooting rubber bands 3. Running down the aisles 4. Yelling 5. Sitting at the first seat of the row. 6. Making sarcastic remarks. A remedy for the six above listed are that a semblies help to build up with in you a spirit of loyalty: that you are there for appreciation of the fact that you are cooperating with 'the school in hearing the speaker, and clapping alone, not yelling or whistling, shows your approval. ' POLEH BAY AH Dear Poleh: Who's been giving Christine Hukalo the rush? I've seen them together so often, but I don't happen to know his name. Could you help me? Thanks, Curios. S? Dear Inquisitive: My friends tell me it is Johnny Potts. They further add that it seems to be the real thing. Glad I could help you, l'oleh. is is as Dear Poleh: What's the matter with Ethel Hogg lately? She doesn't seem to notice me as much as before. Tell me, A Junior. Dear Junior: Didn't you know her heart belongs to a Libbeyite, Bill Davis? Yours, Poleh. ll III lk Dear Poleh: What has happened to Dave Kor- nowa? I don't see him with any girl. Yours, F. F. Dear F. F.: All his attention has gone to Sell- ing Sagas. Now that the drive is over, he will begin his campaign over again. Is that strange? P. ll. 44 Ik 41 Dear Miss llayah: Are wc going to win tonight? I'ni a senior and haven't seen Woodward win a football game in four years. Hopeful, Elevated Dear High-Up: It is either tonight or never. Be sure to be there with the rest of us. I have rather a vague feeling that we're going to win. So long, Poleh Bayah. Mrs. Eula Upp Is Speaker At Hi-Y Meeting At Y.W.C.A. Facts and figures prove that every student who attends high school is earning 59.25 a day, said Mrs. Eula Upp as she spoke at the weekly meet- ing of the Hi-Y last Tuesday at the Y. W. C. A. Her topic concerned choosing a score suitable to one's own apptitiude,physi- cal and mental compotency, personal satisfaction obtained, and the opportu- nities in the chosen field.The 39.25, Mrs Upp explained, is obtained simply by taking the average amount earned by high school graduate over a period of years and subtracting from it the aver- age amount earned by a person who has not graduated from high school. You divide this by the number of days presnt in school and get S9.25.This,you get for coming to school. The enthusiasm written plainly on the faces of the boys showed what a hit Mrs. Upp's informal manner had scored.

BLUSHING SAGA EDITOR WITNESSES PARTY SPONSORED BY WITTY STAFF A definitely surprised and blush- ing Sadie Douglas, editor of the Saga, witnessed her own birthday party in room 126 last Monday, seventh hour. The affair, sponsored by the Saga staff and Sadie's sister, Jean, was highlighted by cup cakes, which Ray- mond Sheline baked. Despite groans and bright remarks, the group de- cided that the cup cakes were really delicious and are still alive to talk about their narrow escape. A cake, made of gum drops, was topped with 17 candles. With one try, Sadie blew them all out. Other refreshments included ice cream and potato chips, both of which disap- peared rapidly. Among the gifts received by the Saga chief was a piggy bank, blue and white nail polish, a scribble-in book and bobby pins. Even witty Dorothy Clouse presented her with a candy soldier, while Jack Henzler contributed a toy tank. Lois Schoon- maker delved into the garbage can for her token of esteem, a corsage of rotten vegetables. Sadie's most appreciated gift was that of Royal Kerr. It consisted of a baby doll in a tub, along with a pacifier. Her only complaint to this was that the doll had no clothes on. Mr. Sheline assured her that they always came like that. Sadie is still blushing. i CARD PARTY, DANCE TO BE HELD IN GYM Welfare Card Party To Be Thursday., November 63 Upp Is Head Both the girls' and boys' gyms will be used for the welfare card party to be held on Thursday, November 6, at 8:15 p. m., stated Mrs. Eula Upp, general chairman of the committee.

Seventy select pupils, who will sing on the radio program, Life Story of Schubert, will be the ones to go. However, the sum of approximately seventy dollars must be raised to transport the singers. This will be done by either having each member pay a certain amount or having a fund started to which the entire school may contribute.

Advisers ................ . ............. ........................ i Mm- Marie Emil Hugh Montgomery A New American Flag ERE AT WOODWARD are a great many clubs. Heretofore they have always responded when the school needed something. Woodward needs something now. It needs a new American Flag. It has served its purpose and it should be burned. Whenever you destroy a flag another must re- place it. Consequently, somone or group must fur- nish a new one. Let one club or several clubs make it their busi- ness to obtain a new one, now. It is an essential thing. Especialy is it so in National Preparedness: for it symbolizes our patriotic feeling toward Amer- 1ca. Some club or clubs should take heed now. Let them look at our present American Flag and then act. . Save Date Now HE ANNUAL welfare card party will be held November sixth this year. The date is still a little far away put nevertheless now is the time for reserving the night. This affair, which is held to raise funds for wel- fare work, is in a way unique this year. Both gyms will again be used, but in the boys' gym there will be dancing for students along with card playing. The girls' gym will be used for card playing by adults. The new system should be incentive to you, stu- dents, who do not especially care for card playing but who like to dance. We should save the date now. Plan to have a good time, as well as enable some needy student to have help. Turn Over A New Leaf - ANY COMMITTEES are being formed at this time of year. It seems to be the time when all the social events of the year get under- wg. sually competent students are selected on these committees Students of a dependable character are always given precedence over a student who cannot be depended upon. Although the choice is made critically, many students after having been given the position, rove their undependability. They put off work or siiove it onto someone else, instead of performing their duty. Those students are therefore lowered in the esteem of committee heads. On the other hand, we are glad to say that there are many conscientious committee members who do their job and do it well. If you belong to the former groups vow to turn over a new leaf and carry out the work on your committee to the best of your ability. - Poem We do not print this for its wit Nor its poetic grace.

Probably not many of you students re- why the twenty-seventh of October was chosen. The reason is that it com- memorates the birthday of one of our greatest Americans, Theodore Roosevelt. During the administration of Grover Cleveland,Mr. Roosevelt was an Under Secretary of the Navy. The position was very obscure and looked upon as one of insignificance, but with the tireless energy and irresistable persistence for which he was so famous, the Under Secretary worked to make a real navy out of what was at that time a very weak one. As result of his work which soon began to be re- flected in the whsle Navy Department, the United States was soon equipped with a fleet of fighting ships second to none. 'l'he wisdom of their policy was shown in the re- sults of the Spanish American War when Spain's two navies, one in Cuba and the other in the Phil- ipines, were destroyed by the American Navy. It is rather odd that Mr. Roosevelt, interested as he was in Naval affairs should gain his real fame as a soldier in the land forces. Your history recalls his gallant conduct at San Juan Hill in this same war. His record here rather than his work in the Navy Department resulted in his running for Vice President with William McKinley in 1900. When President McKinley was assasinated in 1901 Theodore Roosevelt became President of the United States. Navy Day is not a holiday but a day of commem- oration so that our country will remember to pro- vide for this mighty arm of our National Defense.

Woodward gridders gained their first city vic- tory by defeating Central 7-O. Rollie Bevan left Woodward--Art Smith was named grid coach.

Woodward Clash Tonight At 8:15 A spirited Woodward eleven will clash with a humbled Central squad tonight in the Scott bowl at 8:15 in what promises to be a rough and tumble affair. The Bears go into action suffering under a 14-6 trimming handed them by DeVilbiss. Woodward, however, gave the Tigers a stiff scrap from gun to gun. Central, on the other hand. lost to the weakest team Waite has ever had. 7-6. Upon Syl Goliembiewski, Bear back, will be the responsibility of most of Woodward's running attack as well as aerial blitz. George Sanderson, star center for the Polar Bears will be watching the game from the bench. Sandy injured his knee in pre-DeVilbiss scrimmage. Woodward's starting lineup has not been given as yet, but will probably be: Bucher, l.e. Piasecki, l.t. Potts, l.g. Wisniewski, c. Zychowicz, r.g. Crosby, r.t. Frankowski, r.e. Krell, q.b. Pierce, h.b. Golombiewski, h.b. Wandtke, f.b. GAME H1-LITES I It is interesting to note that all three touchdowns scored by the Bears this year, in city play, have been via air route. Lack of a public address system at DeVilbiss Friday hampered s t u d en t conception of thhe giameg Statistics show a vast improvement in this years line. Waite won by eight touchdowns last year and only one this- year. DeVilbiss won by four touch downs last year and one this year. Re- member the Central scores last year. Maybe boys, maybe. ill 'I' ill Our Drum Majorettes were a bit nervous, but student support was ex- cellent. Super selling hasn't interferred with Whitey Blank's baton twirling. Fl' ill 'lf DeVilbiss' excellent band put on a great show before,between halves, and after the games: at it The thoroughness of DeVilbiss block- ing enabled frequent long runs from scrimmage. It at at George Sanderson, varsity center and a great ball player, attended the game on crutches. A torn cartilage kept him out. Ray Pierce, Bear Half-Back Names Favorite Food Class Yes, I have a nickname, it's Peaohlaf' Thus spoke Ray Pierce, Woodward's reliable gridder who held the position of halfiback on the varsity last year and continues to do so this season. Ray, a Woodward senior, soft spoken and courteous, was born August 7, 1923 He ranges 5' 10 tall and weighs around' 150 pounds. To complete his description, he has dark brown hair, and brown eyes. When asked his favorite food, he re- plied, Hot dogs, and plenty of them. His favorite subject is Home Econom- ics, Miss Abair's first hour class where he is learning to cook. Ray believes Woodward's chances for tonigjhts game are good and states, It will e a good game. He is interested in other sports,but it narrows down to baseball, which he played here last spring, and intends to do so again. GRIDDER RESERVES DE FEAT WHITMER Ramer, Paradyze, Reserve Backs, Pile Three Markers Woodward's talented Reserves jour- neyed to Whitmer Oct.l4 and defeated the home town boys 19-0 in a lack lustre affair. Kenny Ramer, reserve back had a field day at Whitmer's expense, scoring two ofthe Cub's touchdowns and sett- ing up the others. The Cubs drew first blood scoring in the second quarter, when Ramer roun- ded end for forty yards, to the Whitmer ten. A play later he again romped end, this time for the score. The conversion failed, but the reserve machine would not be halted. After a punt exchange they marched to the Whitmer three from where Par- adyze plunged for the score. Paradyz's kick split the uprights making the score Woodward 13. Whitmer 0. The final tally came in the fourth quarter when Ramer took a Whitmer kick on his own ten yard line and with superb down field b 1 o c kin g swept 90 yards to pay dirt. Tigge's kick was low, and the game ended Woodward 19, Whitmer 0.

In '39 and '40 the student-backer-uppers were swell, but this year they are lousy. It's no fault of the cheerleaders, they put their hearts and souls into their work. We've got the best team we've ever had this year, but the football players can only go so far and no further with- out student support. Therefore both team and students fespecially students, because we really have a good teamj should get together and watch us take a few games.

BEARS DEFEATED BY DEVILBISS TEAM Woodward Eleven Beaten, 14-6, In Attempt For City Game A fast, hard hitting Polar Bear squad was defeated by the roaring Ti ge r s from Devilbiss, 14-6, last Friday night in the Upton Avenue arena. After kicking off to the Devilbiss lads the Bears took charge of the ball after several plays. A fifteen yard penalty for holding on their first offensive play did not hinder the Woodwardites first drive to the goal. Making four first downs in their first attack on the Tiger goal, Golembiewski's pass, from the four yard marker to Bucher in the end zone, with three minutes left in the first period, started the evening scoring. In the second quarter the DeVilbiss- ites took the lead by a lone point mar- gin as their attempt for the extra point to go with their first touchdown split the uprights, 7-6. Staging an even attack in the third period after their fifteen minute inter- mission bcth squads went into the final period full of pep. During the first three minutes ofthe fourth quarter the Tig- ers pushed over the final touchdown and extra point to put the game in the ag. Between the halves the DeVilbiss and Woodward bands marched and performed many formations. The Polar Bear band led by Bob Blank and six majorettes played Anchors Away while in the formation of an anchor. Outstanding, was the chorus dancing performed by the DeVilbiss majorettes to the hit tune, Daddy, Tonight the Bears tackle Central in the Scott Stadium.

P. obably the most outstanding back on the field Friday was Tiger wingback Dick Goins. It was Goins who, on the first scrimmage, broke loose and trav- eled 58 yards to pa dirt only to have the play called back because of an in- fraction by his team mates. : a a Orchids to Irv Wisniewski, who was switched from end to center in the Tiger tilt.

Shimman Chose Right Team, See If You Can Get His Beam Out of well over one hundred return slips, guessing the results of the Wood- ward-DeVilbiss game, only ten gave the Tigers a margin over us. Out of this ten, five returned a verdict of 13-6. It must be understood that only one guess may be turned in for each person competing. Therefore any person trying twice or more will be eliminated im- mediately. Four students who tied held a drawing Monday and Ervin Shimman wins the ticket to the Woodward-Cent ral fray.

HALLOWEEN NIGHT 'Twas the night of Halloween, And through the screaming trees The witches grabbed their broomsticks Between their knubby knees. They would visit every grave- yard To wake up all the deadg Then tell them of the man they lost, But how they got his head. And thendthe horrible tales they to , Of goblins boiled in oil, And of the devil's private mines Where they made captives toil. The skeletons then would shud- der, And roll over with a sigh To pray with hollow, lonely groans, For dear God to let them die. So when you hear the witches Riding in the night, And you're so doggoned scared, That the bedposts knock with fright, You may wish in a weakening moment, That you could die right there in bed, But then think of how those skeletons shook, And remember - they were DEAD. -By Dorothea Noble. NEW PLAN TO BE TRIED AT WELFARE CARD PARTY, THURSDAY, NOV. 6 ' ' A 5lDance To Be Given In Boys' Mrs. Eula Upp Mrs. Eula Upp is general chairman of the card party.

Miss Wetterman Attends Modern Language Meeting The decline of' German and French in American high schools is only tempo- rary, stated Professor Dr. Zeydell, of the University of Cincinnati, who spoke at the Northwestern Teachers gather- ing Friday. French has been and always will be the international language, ap reciated by diplomats, educators, andp the edu- cated public. German is held in the same esteem. At the West Point Academy it is compulsory for every cadet to study German, while Spanish is compulsory to members of the Air Corps. Germany and England are at war, it is true how- ever at the University of Bristol in Great Britain German is yet being taught. In order to live up to our Good Will attitude it will be necessary for Spanish to rise again. Spanish is considered by many as the second language of the United States. Miss Annie Wetterman, instrum tor o Spanish and German at Woodwax d, at tended this meeting. Sophomore Boys Lead School With 126 Une atsg Sr. Girls-10 Last Wednesday 411 unsatisfactories were issued to students failing in the first five weeks of work.

Q Mm' Marie Emir Hugh Montgomery Not A City Game, But Something Else HE WOODWARD-CENTRAL game of last Thursday was significant in one respect. It showed to the spectators and the Central team that Woodward is no longera so-called pushover opponent. here are many land some here at Woodwardj who have no tolerance with moral victories. They are not content to be on the losing end of any game. Perhaps such an attitude is a good one. At least, it shows that they're thinking. But on the other hand, there is somevgood in Moral Victories. Before this year, oodward was looked upon by coaches of ot..er city teams and by city sports wri- ters as just another team who need not be feared because of our long losing streak. This year they have change their minds a good deal. True, we still haven't won a city game, but we still have won some thing. We've won respect. Respect is an intangible thing. It only comes to a team when it has deserved it. Our football team has shown that it has the stuff to win. Maybe, we won't win a game this year, but there is a chance that we might. In any event, win a city game or not, let's remember we have a better team t is year than we have had in past years. There is no doubt of that fact. Last Friday's game is evi- dence enough. Perhaps not today or tomorrow but some day victory is ours. Let us hope it is soon. Constructive Halloweening TATISTICS show that the amount of destruc- tion which occurs on Halloween has soared to new heights during the past few years. Of course we have all heard tales told by our parents of the cute tricks they played on Halloween. But they didn't do nearly so many destructive things as the kids today. Perhaps this is because we do not have as many restrictions placed upon us as our par- ents did, but, after all, we should be thankful that we don't, and we should have more respect for the op ortunities which this freedom offers. go, instead of going out tonight and destroying property, get your neighborhood gang together and throw a party or dance in somebody's basement. The Polish Literary Society, an organization of our own school, is giving a masked skate. Patron- ize this type of intertainment for your fun on Halloween. It is a night for fun. You will be do ing your part to cut down on this unnecessary destruc- tion and making this community a safer, more peaceful place in which to live. Dancing Card Playing VERYONE, including students as well as their parents, are urged to attend the annual welfare card party November sixth. As in previous years the proceeds of the occasion will be used for welfare work. The girls' gym will be used for adult card playing. Prizes will be offered for the player with the high- est score at each table. Not only will card playing by students take place in the boys' gym, but also dancing, a new attempt to satisfy those who do not care to play cards. By attending the card party, we will benefit by an evening of fun and possible prizes, and we will also gain the satisfaction of helping a student less fortunate than we. Let's all be there. g Woodward Whispers The Engineering Society dance is causing great confusion. All the girls are just dying to go Why don't the engineers do something about it. at s an ' Lillian Sodd's campaign motto for the senior election was Saga-Selling Sodd for Senior Student Secretary.

Now You Tell One Last night, as I was walking past Woodward, I saw a light flickering on and 0E in room 126. A1- though it was a dark, cold night and I was in a hurry. I decided to investigate. I opened the door, exactly when the clock was striking twelve. Once inside I heard a series of weird noises com- ing from C. C. LaRue's ofiice. There I discovered our principal practicing the Anvil Chorus on his chimes. ' After that, I decided that I would attempt to reach my destination without further delay. Just as I was passing the auditorium 1 heard an awful racket, so I peeked through the door. Oh, dumb me! Will I ever remember that Jack Wilson and Tommy Marinelli have accordion jam sessions in there. I advanced down the hall. Good heavens, what was that explosioncoming from 127? Looking through the hole I saw Floyd Lords attempting an ex- periment which he wanted to show his class today. fP.S. It didn't work.l Despite all the interruptions, I finally reached 126. Just as I was to enter the room, I heard a clamp, clamp, clamp. The lights went out and again I heard clamp, clamp, clamp. ................. Boo!

All of a sudden, I heard voicesg cool, calm, dreary voicesg voices with rythmic tones. Voices which made my heart skip a beat, and oold chills run down my spine. I was terror stricken.I was in this huge house alone. What to do? Where to trun? My mind didn't tell me. I sat at the edge of my chair, frosen with fright. Then, I could hear the creaking of fontfalls on the, stair case. Sudden thumps, then creaks, thumps creaks, thumps, creaks, until I thought my head wouldn't stand it any longer. Iwas about to scream In my mind I saw pictures of spooks. I kept re membering the fantastic stories of the H er m i t Could this be happening to me? The footfalls be- came more clear. They drew near.

Football Slanguage To carry the mail he sewed up the well-oiled harvester which had cracked loose and touched off the fire-works. They were in a deep hole and in order to make a smas ing comeback he had to roll up three succesive downs. Like a wirling der- wish, he skirted the right end while the team dent- ed the forward wall of the foe. He sparked the scor- ing drive when he took a lateral with a glue-finger ed catch, hoofed down the field and dove over the goal for a touchdown.

Wayne's South High School will tackle the toughest Woodward team to be sent to the Indiana town in many a year, when they encounter the 1941 Polar Bear squad in their annual pigskin-plunder tonight. Holding the edge on wins, the Taylor- ites have defeated South three times, tied two and lost two since they began their series back in 19214. Last year an over-confident Polar Bear outfit was whitewashed by the Hoosieritos, 16 to 0. The Woodwardites enter the annual affair favored to come out on the long end of the final score. Resuming of type and quality of play they have bcen show- ing, the Streicher Street boys should lgring the game back in a tightly tied a . Z The Bears have improved their qual- ity of play since their opening kick-off against Libbey in September. South High gridders are going to attempt to down the newly spirited Bears but will find that they are harder bloclzers, fast- er runners, and more deceptive passers than the eleven they tackled last year from Toledo. Game Hi-Lites The longest run of the Central- Bear. fray was made by a rabbit who started on the Central 16 cut down the sidelines reversed his field and went out ofbound on the Bear 10. is -u 1 Zychowicz, Krell, Gobiembriwski, Kad- orone, and Frankowski, were praised very highly by the Toledo Blade. They were said to have been the best play- ers on the field. 4 4- -n Jimmy Kadorone really looked good on his 52 yard sprint, which looked as if it were stated to be a touchdown, only to be hauleb down by a treedy Central lad. an -r in Frequent fumbles resulted in a low score. Both teams had a hard time hang- ing on to the ball. -r as 41 I looked as if the Bears were going to lose by another touchdown when an Irish grabbed a pass. But luck was with the North Enders. He was out of the end zone and therefore the score was void. RESERVES HANDED FIRST DEFEAT,7-6 Knierim, Bear Luminary, Out Because Of Bad Leg Injury Woodward's reserves tasted the bitter pill of defeat Friday when erroneous ball handeling and insufficient blocking combined to give the DeVilbiss light- weights a seven to six victory. The game started well enough, for the Cubs when center Joe Ustazewski blocked a DeVilbiss kick on the Tiger seven. Jim Knierim, on the first play tossed a side pass to big Ed Paradyz who swept four yards to pay dirt. The conversion failed. It proved a costly six points for the Cubs, as Jim Knierim, leading backfield lumminary,injured his leg and had to be removed. Loss of this passing wizard and field general threw the Cub's offen- sive machine out of cog, and frequent fumbles marred other scoring drives. The DeVilbiss score came when Cub halfback Kenny Ramer fumbled a wide lateral on his one yard line. A plunge scored for the Tiger Kittens and still another plunge chalked up the all im- portant extra point, which eventually proved the margin of victory. Two Woodward Lasses Win Tickets in Score-Guessing In last weeks score guessing, results were cut down to two Woodward lasses, Mary Shamer and Mary Lukasik. Of these two Mary Lukasik was the lucky winner of Bear-Bulldog fray ticket of next Nov. 8. The final computing of figures showed Central favored over Woodward in 80 per cent of the guesses with but6 per- sons giving out atie decision. Fifteen students chose Woodward to win over Central. As the Scott-Wood ward g r i di r o n session we are all reminded to begin to polish off those intellectual knobs and prepare for a bit of score guessing in this final try for football scores of this season. ' New Gym Instructor Mra.Ethel Hayes will aid Miss Cather ine McClure and Mrs. Lois Draves with their gym classes. She will be at'school all day on Wednesday, Monday after- noon, and Friday morning. She will teach freshman hygiene on Monday afternoon and Friday morning. Mrs. Hayes taught hygiene at Wood- ward several years in the past. DONALD BAKER, BERNARD BURNS HAVE PAST EXPERIENCE ON VARSITY We've got the best team and the worst breaks in years, stated Donald Baker with a positive look in his pleas- ant brown eyes. Born November 7, 1924, Donnie has been head varsity manager for two years, and is 5' 6 tall. Contrary to popular belief there is more to a managers duty then man- handling a water bucket. This genial well liked senior travels with the team, keeping them well equipped. He also has charge of the uniforms and helmets, issuing them be- fore the game and collecting them af- ter each contest. Don has charge of three other stu- dent managers whom he daily instructs, grooming them for future varsity duty. Popular with all the players lists dy- namic Harold Wandtke and little Bing Crosby as his favorites. Attributes his aloofness to Wood' ward girls to the charming Waite lassie Ethel Heinman who he shyly admits, has options on him. Always on a strict diet, as any play- er will tell you, he places huge quan- tities of ice cream and steak at top of his list. He would like the Scott game asa graduation present. V a r si t y please notice. Bernard Burns, senior bear lineman of three years experience, will top off his gridiron appearances at Woodward November 8 when he wears the blue and white for the last time. Bernard, who weighs but 155 lbs, has earned four letters in his four years, three of which are major sport letters. Splitting air to the amount of'5ft. 10 in., he keeps any kind of food just so its edible, on his want lists. Hoping to go to college for sport rea sons, as well as intellectual, his ambit- ion is to become a member of the Uni- ted Air Corps. For favorites B e r n a r d keeps auto- mechanics as number one and art a very close second. To the dismay of many beautiful Woodward girls he does not hold women as being at all important. With this blond twin of L e o n a r d Burns plugging for Woodward tomor row night, a lot of action can be expec' ted when Fort Wayne hits the line.

The Bears held De- Vilbiss and Waite to one touchdown margins and October 23 they duplicated the stunt and held a highly favored Central eleven to a 6-0 supremacy over them. For t h e three quarters the tw 0 squads battled to what seemed to be a scorless game. Then the opening min- utes of the fourth stanza found the Irish on Woodward's 26 where Bob Mc- Quillen dropped back and tossed a pass to Hasemeyer in the end zone for the lone tally of the game. After that the Bears came back and moved down to the Central 16 where they lost the ball on downs. After the Irish had fumbled on the Bear 10 the record crowd witnessed the longest run of the evening when Jimmy Kadorone started from his own 10 and ran 52 yards before Dick Naugle hauled him down.

HENLEY WANTS TO A BECOME A DOCTOR City-Wide President of Red Cross Hopes To Attend Western Reserve Ever since I was in the fifth grade I have wanted to become a doctor, stated Joyce Henley, city-wide pres- ident of the Red Cross. Western Reserve is the college she has sel- ected to attend although she is un- decided On the hospital in which she wishes to train. This five-foot-three brownette was born on June 21 under the sign of Cancer. She tips the scale at 110 pounds which is just about right for her sixteen years. Joyce denies the rumor that her heart's desire comes from a rival school, Central. She enjoys making odd jewelry but she admits that she just likes to monkey around in her spare time. This brown-eyed junior thinks red is a most alluring color. Although Ioyce is a pretty busy person with her work in the Red Cross, she says she has plenty of time to have fun and keep up in her school work. Joyce is a member of the Periclean Literary Society and is welfare chair- man of the Friendship Club. Senior To See Play Donald Bilger, red-headed senior, has Bien chosen from Woodward to attend Life With Father, a stage play which will be at the Paramount Monday.

Bob Krell and his followers were busy tak- ing all the signs and posters off the walls. Following closely behind, sweep- ing up their own campaign cards were Jack Schoenfelt, Jack Wilson,Bob Dom- ito, and Bill Marti. Jack Wilson, who didn't seem to relish the job, sarcasti- cally remarked, lf we aren't elected, I think I'll spread all these cards out again. To all the students who asked Bill what he was doing, he answered with that usual campaign smile, that he was running for janitor.

Department View Entire Teen Age Wardrobe The entire home economics depart rnent viewed a complete teen age wardrobe last Monday and Tuesday. The display, sent here directly from New York, had formerly been sent to all national exhibitions and is now be- ing sent to schools all over the country. The purpose of this showing is to teach the girls how to buy more eco- nomically. It was decided by the group that the wardrobe, which include shoes, stockings, sweater,purses,and all other accessaries, were, as a whole, too ex- pensive.

Bill Moore, freshman, was nonchalantly flipping a dime in the air. Unexpectedly how- ever, his expert flipper hit a snags The dime hit his wrist and-horrors -dropped into that grasping, mag- netized register which extends around the girls' gym. There it was, tantalizingly in sight but just out of reach. All of this has been duly witnessed and recorded by the group of teachers who gather in the gym to discuss the topic of the day. Next day another peculiar sight came forth into the gym. This time a boy was balancing something which looked suspiciously like gum on the end of a pencil. Upon closer observa- tion the gum turned out to be icing from a piece of cake and the boy, Jack Shausten, a friend of Bill Moore. He had come to rescue the dime by the process of getting the dime to stick to the icing and then pulling it out. The dime was finally retrieved and Jack Schausten was ten cents richer. - New Senior Ocfiiers The election of senior class oliicers held Thursday, October 30. brought the following result: Bill Marti, president, Nick Darah, vice-president, Li Ilia n Sodd, secretary, Irene I-Iintz, treasurer, Bob Krell, sergeant-at-arms, and Marie Ignatiowski, reporter.

It is being shipped to our District Office in De- troit and will be turned over to you and to the school very shortly.

Faculty Committee Views Band Uniforms Thursday The committee of faculty members, who will choose band uniforms, had a brief meeting Thursday October 30, to look over sample uniforms from the Fechheimer Bros, a band uniform con- cern in Cincinnati.

Only one conclusion was reached, and that was that the band uniforms should be conformative to the school colors, royal blue and white. Other companies will be allowed to show their samples and fabrics to the band uniform committee at forthcom- ing meetings.

In ac- cordance with this, Miss Stella Sawtelle and her staff displayed during the last week some of the latest books, both fact and fiction, which Wood- ward has received during the past year. Every student and teacher should have made it a point to go into the library and familiarize himself with these books. There are biographie s, true ad- venture stories, books on politcal groups, the inter- national situation and many others. These books afford many advantages to their readers. Many ot them could be used as excellent reference material 'for history and the like. The fiction, too, is of a high type and very entertaining. Almost every English teacher would welcome book reviews on these books. If ou weren't in the library this week, go soon and begin to take advantage of the opportunity it offers. Show your appreciation of books by using them intelligently and more ten.of Clean Hall Issue T THE beginning of the school term C. C. La- Rue was forced to make announcements about the conditions of our halls. After several of these reminders the halls took on a new glory. Stu- dents were more careful. Finally, Mr. LaRue stop- ped the announcements. Now the students are get- ting careless again. Once again the halls area mess of confusion. The only reason for this mess is the fact that stu- dents are careless. Instead of placing their waste in the containers they let it drop to the floor and think nothing of it. Let's all help Mr. LaRue in this campaign, so that we can take pride in our halls. Just as Mr. La- Rue said, We may not have a winning football team, but let's have clean halls to back us up. Remember Unknown Soldier UESDAY, NOVEMBER 11, we again celebrate Armistice Day. The commeorable day 23 years ago, which put an end to the struggles of the peo le of the world. This day, before September, 1939, was one of the more important holidays. People of the different countries were thankful that peace reigned in glory. Since then, we have again found ourselves in about the same situation. War, struggle, hunger, poverty, all of the unwanted worries of the Euro- pean people. The inevitable question of whether our country will en ter this conflict stands unan swered. Only time will tell, and we are obliged to wait. Even though we find some of the coutries in bat- tle again, Armistice Day should be celebrated with due pomposity. The grave ofthe Unknown Soldier should not be forgotten, as it represents an intang- ible feeling of all the soldiers who fell in the last war. Dance Of The Year N PAST YEARS the all club dance, the Shekel Shuffle, was considered one of the best dances given all year. This year it is different. It is the best! This is due to the cooperation between the dance committees and the faculty. They have arranged for Jimmy Reemsnyder's orchestra, con- sidered by Toledo as its top band, to play for them. To further this dance a raffle for a turkey will be held next week and the winner will be the leader of the band for one set. The refreshments and decorations were all chosen in view of what you, the student body, like. So attend the dance next Friday and show your appreciation. Neighborly Notes During the showing of a newsreel in , Q one of the downtown theaters I sat snellbound as the story of the making .Q-I '-i' , of a bomber was unfolded. The camera- L man had gone into the minutest detail in portraying the assembling of this X huge ship and the narrator gave us all the facts and figures attendant upon it from the raw steel, aluminum, copper. brass, etc., to the finished prcduct sraring grace- fully into the sky from some California Airport. As the plane lifted itself into the air, the narrator burst out enthusiastically There she goes, an An- gel of Death. His words sent a chill down my spine,I came out of my pleasent speculations on the beauty of the ship and the skill that had gone into her construction with a start. An Angel of Death! Yes, that was what the speaker had called it. Constructed to carry heavy guns and tons of high explosives this beautiful craft was intended for one purpose and one purpose only, to spread death and destruction over the country of our ene- mies. It is a dreadful thing to be compelled to do this. How much better if these ships could be used in peace time pursuits such as carrying cargoesand passengers to and from our country. How infinitely better if these beautiful planes were to be messen- gers of good will instead of messengers of death. But it cannot be. Greedy dictators by force have battered almost all of Europe into a snarling, surly, submission. Japan, imitating what they believe to be a winning Axis combination is determined to force us to show our hand. Under such conditions our only recourse is to arm and arm so effectively that there will be no doubt about the outcome. We all abhor war. We deplore the waste of lives and of property that results from it. But there are times when wars must be fought if we are to continue free, to live our lives as our Creator intended to live them. The crucial time is with us now. We cannot avoid it. If and when we go to war it will not be for the vindication of our honor hut for the preservation of our established way of living. So for this we build more and more Angels of Death. Sleepyheads---Attention! Havin noticed the majority of Woodward stu' dent body fast asleep at one time or another, tespecially Monday morning! your helpful reporter decided to delve deep in the depths of scientific research. If you have a cooperating friend, bring a long feather and take turns in tickling each other's necks. Why not be helpful? If you see your dear- est friend dozing off, give him a hot foot---that's a sure thing. Or else bring along some gum, chew the whole pack, and blow bubbles. Some pepper in a handkerchief is edective, or why not carry a peeled onion along? Cold water thrown on the face makes one alert A thermos bottle too, or if these fail, make it a point to sit next to a--ah person who adores big ten cent bottles of perfumes. That's a sure kill. But my dear fellow student if this has had no effect upon you, you'd better lie down, you've been dead and didn't know it. Wacky Words Today, students, we present Dr. U. R. Wackey, N. U T. N. U. T. is the degree he obtained from college for his state of' mind. And speaking of de- grees, did you know it was about 10 degrees above zero this morning? Zero! That's what the grade on my history test was last week. What a coincidence! History is an interesting subject, to some people, and it's very educational, too. So they say. But then almost anything is educational. Even talking to the girl across the aisle fabout school subjects, of course? l is educational. But just try to tell that to my English teacher. English is very simple to me, but then let me look at French. No, you look at itg I'm tired of it. That reminds me, I'm tired of writ- ing this silly stuff! It doesnt make sense anyhow. Who? Oh, yes! Dr. Wacky, I forgot all about him, where is he? Oh, he's asleep! Mustn't bother him now. Will say adieu now and let you follow his ex- ample. G'bye! Can You Imagine? Woodward---without C.C. LaRue. Bill Searles---without Jeanne Plasket. Football---without the pig's kin. Fridays--without a Tattler. Tom Marenelli---doing his own homework. Ester Zak--getting F's. Shirley McLeane-not jitterbuggini Betty Woods-without Gene Klein Bob Krell--not talking about football. Royal Kerr---doing his homework at home. Yours Truly--being funny instead of corny.

Wayne Wins, 19-0 The Bears once again suffered de- feat in their second out of town en- counterg this time under the superior Southside High of Fort Wayne, Satur- day, November 1. The Fort Wayne Archers took advan- tage of a bad kick and shoved from Woodwsrd's fifteen to draw first score in their 19 0 drive early in the starting quarter. With all kicks seemingly in their favor, Shimer, elusive left halfback of Fort Wayne, kept the Bears moving as the southerners, once again set their machine in a touchdown drive in the second quarter. The score remained at 12-0 throughout the 3rd quarter when Coach '1'aylor's charges put up a rigid resistance, but failed to threaten a tie. Striking for the last and final score in the fourth quarter, it was once again Shimer, who, cutting off yardage in large hunks, set the Southsiders in for another score. The conversion was good on this last touchdown. The Woodward boys as in last year's game, didn't score a point or get over the 40 yard stripe during the hour of a P Y- Both teams fought the elements all during the game, the field being cov- ered with water and a strong wind drawing punts out of line. General spir- its ran low due to weather, and tiring trip of 100 miles. Game Hi-Lites The trip to Fort Wayne was no new thing for Leonard and Bernard Burns. This was the third time they have gone with the varsity. It is also a fact that they have been on the varsity longer than anyone else now playing. U I I Golembiewski saw action in only two quarters because of a knee injury. l l I Krell punted against a very strong wind for 40 yards, but with the wind they got off 70: yarsds. as The gridder wearing jeresy No. 13. was the main factor in the South High team.

Cubs End Fairly Successful Season With Loss Watson Welever's reserve football squad brought a fairly successful season to a close last Friday when they bowed to an inspired Libbey team 27-13 at the South Siders' fielu. The game produced every type or unorthodox iootball imaginable. The little Cowboys scored first, using straight power plays in a sixty-yard march. The kick for the extra point was successful. L1bbey's seven-point lead lasted ex- actly three plays. Then Tim Knierim, cub wingback, hurtled center, cut to his right and romped 35 yards to score. A beautiful plunge by Para- dyze added the typing point. Libbey fought back and in the clos- ing minutes of the first half a long pass clicked in the end zone for an- other score. Failure to convert sent the reams to rest with Libbey sport- ing a six-point lead. The second half was an aerial battle with Libbey scoring and converting once in the third quarter. In the final minutes of play Libbey intercepted a Wood- ward pass for the final score of the day. Many of the boys stamped them- selves as future varsity material. finds: Madras, Kerny, Malone, Rose: tackles: Swaya, Rychlewski, Cramer: guards: Mullinox, Tiggesg center: Daniels and Ustazewskig all played great ball in the line. Ppls, Paradyze, Knierim, Ramer and Gunt carried the mail in excellent style in the back- field. The final lightweight statistics for 1941 are: Woodward Opponent ' 13 13 Waite ................

TRIP TO FORT WAYNE UNEVENTFUL FOR VARSITY MEMBERS, COACHES Leaving Woodward at 8:15 on a cool Saturday morning, 28 drowsy gridders traveled to Fort Wayne for a muddy afternoon game which ended disastrous- ly. They were accompanied by five fac- ulty members, Joe Dence, Arnold Brown, and Watson Welever, head coach Jack Taylor, and backfield coach Elmer Vorderburg. With them also were manager Don Baker and Bob Har- ter. During the hundred mile trip, the boys read magazines, talked or slept. They arrived at Fort Wayne, 10:15 their time. Before 2:00 game time, the Bears played pool, ping pong and checkers at the Y.M.C.A., where they i also ate a light lunch. I A short while before game time the players retired to South High where they donned their suits in perparations for the play. The game lasted opproxi mately one hour and fifteen minutes. The North end boys, after a warm shower, returned to the Y.M.C.A. With about twenty-minutes to waste, somejust wandered about, while others went back to ping pong and pool. They went immediately to the bus. and de- layed for a short while waiting for Doc Welever and Mr. Taylor who had taken Bill Santus and Alfred Ustaszew- ski to a docter for injuries received in the game. The bus left Fort Wayne at 7:15. Most boys slept on the return trip. They reached Woodward at 11:15, deposited their suits in their lockers, and 28 very tired boys started for home. To See Who Keeps Cellar J ack Taylor Tomorrow night the Woodward Polar Bears, battered all seas-on by teams not too much superior, but with more breaks, meet the Bulldogs of Scott who are in the same position of underdog. The Bear gridders enter the game with no wins, either city or out oftown, while the Scotters trounced one outside team. Both teams lost to their last opponent, Central, by one touchdown. Woodward has been playing fine foot- ball all season with the exception of the opener. The Bears have a very capable back, and with our line opening up the Scott's line, he should do his best job of t e year. Woodward has others it can depend on notably, Krell, Kadorone, Wisniewski,Crosby, Frankowski, Buch- er, and the Burns brothers. All have the intention of making that Bulldog lose his grip. Both teams will be fighting to get out of the cellar position this year. Jack Taylor promised us at the first mass meeting of the year that we would take a city game this year. This is the last opportunity to fulfill that pledge. According to figures the two oppo- nents are about evenly matched, but Woodward should come out of the tus- sle with the higher score. This is the last game many ofthe Bear gridders will play in because of gradu- ation. The line-up next year will missg Crosby, Frankowski, Zychowicz, Leon- ard Burns, Bernard Burns, Bunker, In- tagliata, Komasinki, Potrzebowski, San- derson, Ballmer: back fielders Golem- biewski, Krell, Cramer, Martin, and Pierce. -l -.im Woodward To Whip Scott Tonight, States Lineman An outstanding member of the Polar Bear football squad is, lineman, Ralph Zychowicz. He is 5 feet 956 inches tall and transports 180 pounds around the gridiron making good tackles and hard blocking. Ralph was initiated by the stork on May 5, 1923. He formerly at- tended St. Hedwig's School before coming to Woodward. Polish is his favorite subject and Leo Robie, his favorite teacher. Commercial law i the top-notcher on his black list. Zyche has earned four letters to date from sports: three of them from bowling and the other from football. He intends to play basketball and baseball before graduating in June. Bowling occupies most of his spare time and he has an average of 175. Ralph wants to attend Toledo Uni- versity where he would study to be a physical education teacher and coach. During the summer he was shipping clerk for a large factory and spent leisure hours playing baseball on a federation team. When asked about this year's varsi- ty squad Ralph statedg I think we'll get the breaks tomorrow and whip the Scott Bulldogs by at least one , touchdown.

SENIOR PRESIDENT GRANTS INTERVIEW Bill Marti Insists He Likes Lois Ann Frankowski Fried Chicken Although we're off to a late start,we hope for a glorious finish, stated Bill Marti,newly elected senior president, when asked what he thought of the sen- ior class achievements for the coming year. When first asked to make a state ment, Bill immediately replied that he wasn't going to say that he thought this year's senior class would be the best because, although we hoped it would be, all his former colleagues had made that remark and he wanted to be different. This brown eyed lad not only pos- sesses a mass of wavey black hair, but also a very sparkling and alluring smile. Five foot ten inches of mischief'Bill is really sometimes serious and promises to be a good president. While campagin- ing his slogan was Vote for Bill Marti and make Lois Ann Frankowski first Lady of Woodward.

When questioned about favorites, Norman's serious side stated that heavy literature and opera top his list. He add- ed that mass murder intrigues him and hence, his pet, a black cat, he approp- riately calls Spook. Writing short-short stories and com- posing cowboy songs are among his many accomplishments. Being musical- ly inclined, he finds great enjoyment in playing a guitar. Hop-a-Long Cassidy pictures and The Ford Sunday Evening Hour stirr Mr. Wolfe greatly. He very confidently replied that his secret ambition is to be heard on a coast to coast hook-up.

For getting up at 5:30 or 6 o'clock is anything but dramatic. But the sleep-laden eyes and the general tired appearance soon left the group and they piled into cars with renewed ' enthusiasm. The trip to Columbus proved rather uneventful except for the period of gas refueling, when the group spent their money on everything from pea- nuts to pop. During this time, Elaine Roach took the prize for consuming the greatest variety of things. Per- haps the most fun was had in the Deshler-Wallick Hotel, convention headquarters. The girls, along with Mrs. Ersig, were in one room, while the boys ocupied the room next door. The general scramble for the best bed followed in the girls' room, with Betty Giha getting the worst cot of them all. Her cot not only was Ill?- sided, but it made such a ter 'ic noise when she turned over that Viola Swaya said it sounded like a German tank offensive. Later in the day when the girls were supposed to be lying down, an effigy of Mrs. Ersig was made by them. This supposed adviser of the Tattler consisted of Mrs. Ersig's coat neatly covered by a sheet, her hat, Marilyn Schoonmaker's make-up ar- ticles for the eyes and mouth, and Betty Giha's shoes. It was quite a sight and after seeing it herself, Mrs. Ersig invited the boys in to view the masterpiece. On Friday evening occured the ban- quet which necessitated the Tattler members to don party dresses and bow ties fwhich, by the way, were looked upon with much admiration and much dislikej. Before and during the banquet, school yells were given by the representatives of each school. Macomber, DeVilbiss, Whitney and Woodward yelled together first for one school and then for the other. Then Johnny Phillips and Eddy Vin- son got a brilliant idea and screamed, Where is Edie Kay? Where is Edie Kay? Johnny wants to know ? ' Edie Kay being some pretty girl whom the boys encountered in their many visits to the lobby. Unfortunately, no one answered their interrogation and this saved the day. For heaven knows, I don't know what would have happened if she had responded. After the ban- quet, a dance was held in the grand ballroom, but the majority of the Tattler members atended a picture show. The curfew rang at 12, so all of the group retired. Getting up early Saturday was an- other ritual that was disliked by the group, but after a prod in the stomach by some unknown being, they awoke. The morning was spent on the Ohio State campus, hearing discussions on journalism. After a quick lunch, ev- eryone journeyed to the stadium for the Ohio-Wisconsin game. Ahong the 59,523 spectators that shivered through the game were eleven would- be journalists. And shiver we did. So much, in fact, that Mrs. Ersig had trouble overcoming her lisp. Choco- late was munched for heat but little results did it give, except to offer quick energy which was needed when Ohio State scored a touchdown. The return trip was halted in Ma- rion for dinner. Following this nour- ishment, eleven Tattler members and their adviser settled in their seats for the remainder of the journey with a tired feeling. But underneath this feeling was the deep satisfaction in everyone that a good time was had by all. J.

Guides In Health Education Printed In Woodward Shop Guides In Health Education is the title of the book which Hugh Mont- gomery's print shop has just run off the presses. The books, written by a committee of elementary teachers and members of the Department of Health Educa- tion, is, as the title indicates, about health. In it E. L. Bowsher, superintendent of schools, states, Health should be considered the first objective, and the health of the school child should be definitely a part of the general health program of the whole community. This book also makes clear the gener- al necessities of health. The print shop has printed fifteen hundred copies and has been working on it since school began. Custodian To Retire Fu l l fi l l i n g his duties for the four- teenth and last year is Ernest Mack, custodian, who after June 30, will retire on pension. Ernie has been here since the school opened in 1928, and will be missed when he leaves. When asked what he was going to do with all his spare time, he rep ied, I'm going to take it easy. A witness to this state- ment added that he would grobably entertain his three grand cbil ren.

' ' l ... ................................. .. ........................ Mrs' Mane Emil! Adv 'en li Hugh Montgomery Give Thdught To Tomorrow HE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES has once again set aside one day of the year for general thanksgiving. This is now be- coming an act of tradition. The day is peculiar to this nation alone. It is, we believe, a time to be compared with Christmas. While other nations have but the one holiday, we have two. We are well aware of the fact that we have, more than any 0 th er country, everything for which to to thankful. This Thanksgiving is all the more important for us at the present time. The world is in the midst of a catastrophe, the like of which has never been known before. It seems that even our principles of life are in grave danger. Freedom of speech,we still have it, pray that we keep it. Freedom of the press, it must be maintained, should we lose it, it would be like groping in the dark for a lost companion. Yes, we still have the complete set up of e democracy as we see it. Give it careful consideration. We need the clear thinking of the voters of tomorrow and their parents of today, to remain' in the United States of America, as we desire it, and as we know it. Give a few seconds of this day to pray: God bless America--May it stand always the champion of the opprgssed, the brother of all and the hope of the wor . Thankful For Education EXT WEEK has been set aside as American E d u c a tio n Week. This will be observed throughout the nation and heads will get together in order to plan ways to improve the work which is being done in the schools. Little do the students realize all the advantages derived from going to school and all the things done to improve the methods of education. We should be thankful for these benefits we re- ceive and also the pleasures that come by going to public schools. Just stop and think of what all the children in Europe are missing with their schools bombed and closed. Think of this and be grateful that you can go to Woodward. Take your education seriously kids because you'll never regret it in the years to come. We Appreciate Your Efforts AST WEEK FRIDAY the Zetalethian Literary Society gave the last mass meeting of the football season. Before them other clubs have put forth their best efforts in order to present to the student body of Woodward an interpretation of our future games. In these presentations, mys- teries, The Li e of Krell, The All American Boy, and many other imaginary ideas were used in order to nourish the school spirit. 'Before every game girls and boys look forward to the mass meeting, cheering and laughing if it is good, k n o ckin g it if it isn't. Let's pause a moment to realize the amount of hard work and hope that went into these short skits. Students, from the club rehearsing, would spend an hour, at least, after school every' night practicing their parts. The bogs or girls t at wrote the script tore their hair an racked their brains till that fateful Friday when they listened eagerly, wondering if the kids liked it. And so for these students who tried and succeeded in making our school spirit live a more enthusiastic life, the Tattler, in behalf of the student body o Woodward, thanks them.

Tall Tales Do you like ice-cream, Bud and Lukes butter- scotch pie, boys, Qorgirlsj, feature movies, mass meeting,football an basketball games, or ham- burgers at Kewpees? I don't, really. After all what good do they do? When you eat ice-cream, pie, or hamburgers efore you go to bed, you either have nightmares or can't sleep at all. Feature movies are noisy, full of static blurred around the edges, and the boy next to you insists on holding your hand. Mass meetings are such terrible temptations when you have last nights homework to do, that your conscience bothers you during the entire pro- gram. So, why go? And- football and basketball games only leaves you with hoarse throats. So!.what's the use??? The Eyes Have It Ouch! I have a cinder in my eye. What'll we do? Gee, but it hurts.

BULLDOGS VICTORSg TAYLOR IS LAUDED Goldstein, Harshman Prove Factors In Defeat Of Woodward ' The Armistice Day game started with a two o'clock kick o which threw the switch for the Bulldog's moves. Scoring came early in the lst quarter when O p a k a and Goldstein lugged leather from the 43 yd. marker to t.1e nine which set the stage for the elusive Goldstein's plunge for a tally of 6 points. The conversion was blocked by Wing, Bucher. The first play of the second stanza proved the most thrilling for Wood- ward fans when substitute Ray Pierce broke off for a 53 yard run. Spirited by this move, the Bears continued to drive by air and long runs and soon had pay dirt within easy reac . On the four a fu m b 1 e killed all chances of a marker. Scott relentlessly kept up the ham- mering until in the third quarter King Harshman scored to clinch the fray. The conversion was wide. The last stanza looked like another for the Bulldogs, but in the finest showing. of defense of the year the Bears fought heroically on the goal line and prevented the Scotters from another tally. Sylvester Golembiewski sprinted 46 yards in a last minute attempt but time was too short for any scoring. This team was Coach Jack Taylor's third at Woodward and reacted under his guidance and training excellently. In all games his charges showed improvement and came closer to vic- tories than in the 6 previous years. Judginlg from this team and its polish th e aylor-Vorderburg combination should turn out a winner in the next year of league play. If you want to play football in college you may be interested in the statistics on this year's football squad at Northwestern University. Thirty-five of the 62 players on the squad were captains of their high school football teams, two of the wrestling teams, and one each of the track and ice skating teams. Don Clawson, star fullback on the team of Northwestern University, killed a rattlesnake with a golf club and wears its skin as a belt. An average football player in col- lege is 20 years old, is six feet in height and weighs 185 pounds. They range, however, from 160 to 230 pounds and from five feet seven inches to six feet five inches. All you have to be, is a good ball player. FORMER VARSITY HEAD COACH CITED Roland Bevan Credited With Keeping Army Team In Condition Earl Blaik, Army's coach, stated re- cently that the one man responsible for transforming the West Pointers from the sick man of the plains into one of the strongest Eastern teams was the former Polar Bear coach and trainer, Rollie The Beaver Bevan. Roland Bevan after leaving Wood- ward soon secured a college birth and made his connection with Coach Blaik, whom he's been with for the last half dozen years and is one of the best in the business to keep players fit to play. The nickname of The Beaver was bestowed upon him because he is built close to the ground. Rollie believes that a tired boy is more easily hurt than one who is in good shape and for that reason he keeps his eyes glued on the playing field for lagging gridders. Receiving his appointment to the academy in early spring, Bevan didn't take over till four weeks ago. But since that time after each game a report has come that Army came through the contest without injury, and that all players will be fit for next week's game . The Beaver graduated from Beth- any College and coached football, base- ball and basketball at minor Ohio colleges and high schools, including Woodward, before he was first signed at Darkmouth with Earl Blaik.

The November call to the fields was heartily answered last Saturday when a few members snatched guns hickory sticks hunting. Leading the Dan'l Boone LaRue our principal, the opening day consist- of Woodward faculty and boots in place ol and chalk for a day of army ofpedagogues was whose bag for ed of one pheasant and four rabbits. Taking an example from Dan'l was Hawkeye Crouse who invaded the fields at Liberty Center, Ohio, and was rewarded with the limit in pheasants. Both were not to be outdone by one shot Hanham and his son Bill, found luck in the Pemberville district. Their 'bag was two pheasants apiece. Hugh Montgomery traveled west of Toledo for his catch. He got one pheasant and two rabbits. O. M. Thomsom and Jack Taylor caught rabbits. We're both pretty poor shots, said Mr. Taylor. Amidst weary muscles and stid' joints all replied that It was worth a little walk for those beauties. Girls may be interested that Clark Gable was nearer to many than he will ever come, The noted film star traveled from Hollywood to Bowling Green to participate in his favorite sport. POLAR BEARS GET PRINCIPAUS LAUD Many Gridders Leaving While Others Of Note Are Returning Coach Jack Taylor's Polar Bears came in for their share of glory last Thursday when Principal C. C. Le- Rue praised them over the public address system. The team work of the squad was voiced by our principal and hopes for a great next year team were expressed. Jimmy Kadorone, brilliant Junior back, heads a large field of returning stars. Coach Jack Taylor will also have such stellar backs as Irve Wis- lll0WSkl and Marvin Bucher also will return along with Center Lou Kaczmarek. Probably the most outstanding player returning is 15-year-old tackle Frank Piasccki. This Sophomore, the youngest varsity player in the city, has shown great promise all year. Going Out BOB KRELL-Captain and all around swell player. Bob's hard hit- ting and drive sparked the Bears to many magnificent rallies. Bernard Bums-Fast end who was responsible for stopping many touch- down plays. Bern's glue-covered fingers never seemed to miss. Len Burns-Guard but just as im- portant as a back. Len was always there when a hole had to open. Bing Crosby-Stellar tackle who fought every inch of the wayg 199 pounds of hard-hitting tackle. Cliff Frankowski-Cliff's magnifi- cent body blocks were one of the high points of each game. Syle Goliembiewski-A truly great back, whose running ability definitely stamped him as college material. Ray Pierce-Whenever the Bears needed ground Ray came through. Besides being a consistent ground gained, Pierce was noted as a fine, scrappy, hard-to-get wing back. Johnny Potrzebowski-Little need be said about this running guard. J ohn's hard blocks and vicious tackles were a high point in every game. George Sanderson-Tough breaks were a dime a dozen for Sandy. Up to the time he was benched because of a wrenched knee, George played one swell game at center. And to those who did not sce much action, to such men as Tom Boggs, Paul Bunker, Paul Cramer, Joe In- tagiliata and Ad Martin, we say, nice going, gang. Jim Kadorone Sophomore Makes Spectacular Gains And he is brought down on the Central 38 yard line after picking up 52 yards. Thus it had happened again. Once before Jim Kadorone had broken loose and brought the ball deep into enemy territory when the Bears faced the east sides, so it must be a habit. Also he was on the receiving end of a pass that made the only score against Waite. This fellow, who is none too big--he stands 5' 8 high and weighs 150 pounds ---will be back next year to try for posi- tion of tailback and he should make it easily. He is shifty enough to be able to take advantage of openings capably. Sub, this year, he relieved both Pierce and Golembiewski handling both places in a fine manner. Jim, who tops his height with brown hair and matching brown eyes, intends to try out for bas- ball, but he rates football as tops. In the way of favorites, it's just meat for food, musicals and comedy in movies, and Comercial law in his sub- jects. An enthusiast of Toledo, he was born at St. Vincents hospital in 1923. When asked about the team he said, For this year we had a swell team, but the breaks were all against us, but next .year we'll have a real winning team.

Of the books collected thus far, mystery stories rate the high- est. Magazines such as Readers Digest, Science Digest, and Life were brought in. Possibly the eight most interesting books are the Omnibooks . They are a digest of the latest best sellers and are equivalent to 40 books. Take books and magazines to your Saga reprsentative or to Mrs. Mary O'- Brien in room 314. All books are to be sent to the boys in Camp Shelby.

JANET WOZN Y IS CHAIRMAN OF DANCE Tattler's Feature Editor Likes Trianon, Music, Everything Students! Do you know what this is? This is an interview of Janet Wozny. Janet Kathleen Wozny, to be exact, is the chairman of the Polish Literary Society's Scholarship Dance and that is why she is being interviewed. Of Chicago, Carl Sandburg once said, City of the big Shoulders, but he for- got to mention that Janet was born there 17 years ago on the 29th of Feb- ruary. Aside from being born in leap year, she possesses the remarkable fea- tures of having blue eyes together with long brown wavy hair which somewhat resembles Deanna Durbin's. Janet has a sweet tooth for sweet corn and doesn't give icecream the cold shoulder. As for favorites, Janet lists Wilson Weis, Glenn Miller, Piano Con certo in B Flat, Jim, anda Saturday- night date at the Trianon with Walter Duszynski, whom she calls the one and only on her heart parade. Since she is the reporter for G. A. L., Johnny, ia nickname she didn't want mentionedl, gives her all to basketball, football, and baseball. Other positions she fulfills are reporter of the P. L.S,. feature editor of the Tattler, and a member of the Peris. Seen with Corinne Kalinowski, Jean Marzec, and Florence Matuszewski Janet is the one who is chiefly respon- sible for their names breaking into Tattler print. Eighty Frosh Boys Report For Tryouts In Basketball Eighty freshman boys re orted to Watson Welever for basketball prac- tice at the first call. This was almost too large a group to work With, but they were divided into eight squads of ten each. The boys will take turns playing every other night in the girls' gym. At least sixty of these freshman will be dropped and this will be done by a slow process. Half of these were elim- inated by Wednesday and in two more weeks it should be down to the desire- able number of twenty. Although twen- ty will comprise the squad, only fifteen will travel to games played on foreign floors. The sixty who will not succeed are to be organized into basketball intra-mur- al teams and Mr. Welever will keep his eye on their progress. Mr. Welever announced the schedule for the year as follows: Fri. Dec. 5, Scott, Here. Thurs. Dec. 11, Macomber, Here. Fri. Dec. 19, Libbey, There. Fri. Jan. 9, DeVilbiss, Here. Tues. Jan. 13, Waite, There. Fri. Jan. 16, Central, There. Fri. Jan. 30, Scott, There. Fri. Feb. 6, Macomber, Here. Wed. Feb, 11 Libbey,Here. Fri. Feb. 13, DeVilbiss, There. Fri. Feb. 20, Waite, Here. Fri. Feb. 27, Central, Here. All games will be played on the after noon of the varsity tilts. - VOXIKH' Dear Editor During the last few years other city high schools have been letting their bands play at the basketball games. Each year one or two students from Woodward state their opinins for the band that is having it at the games, but that's as far as it goes. During the fall we the students earn- ed money for band uniforms to keep our band equal to the other bands in the city. Then why not have our band play at the basketball games. This being my senior year, I would like very much to see us keep up to the other city high schools. So let's have lots of opinions and may- be our band will be playing at the bas- ketball games this year. A Senior.

McClure, Draves Visit Gyms Of Two Toledo High Schools Miss Catherine McClure and Mrs, Lois Draves visited the gym classes of DeVilbiss High School and Harriet Whitney Vocational last Friday. At DeVilbiss two men sponsored by Henry Ford were teaching freshmen boys and girls to square dance. One of the men played the piano and the other did the calls. An attempt has been made to have these men come to Woodward for the second semester. If they come, this will probably be open to Juniors and seniors. At Whitney they witnessed a stu- dent style show which consisted of different models made of rayon. .,.. The Cubs had 53 points scored against them, while scoring 83 them- selves. 'Coach Welever built his attack around the passing of Jim Knierim, ace wingback. Constantly, Consistently Constructive TICKETS f - e - MEETING SELL YOUR OOD RD TATTLER Vol. XIV Toledo, Ohio, November 28, 1941 No 11 SPEEDY SELLERS OFFERED SURPRISE Faculty Program Offered Mrs. Mary Crouse Featuring Woodward's annual sale of Gayety Nite tickets will be a surprise mass meeting for some assembly peri- od next week. In order to attend this, a student must have sold two tickets. Individual prizes which will be award- ed to the highest student salesman and the highest home rooms for the sale of Gayety Nite tickets were announced by C.C. LaRue at two general assemblies yesterday. An intensive campaign will ensue, because this year, contrary to previous years, the students will have only two weeks in which to sell their tickets. Hear ye! Hear ye! H e ar ye! Do you want to attend a suprise mass meeting? Who knows what it will be about? It may even be a murder mystery. Of course, this is just a wild idea. Even we do not know the answer to this deep, dark, mysterious secret. One thing is certain, however, only students who sell two or more Gayety Nite tickets will be admitted. Get busy, everyone. Let's have a larger attendance than ever before at a first Gayety Nite mass meeting. There will also be the usual Gayety Nite prizes. The 25 highest h om e rooms and ever student who has sold 4 or more tickets are entitled to at- tend a movie in the auditorium, sched uled for a later date. Those who have sold 4 or more tick- ets durin the entire sale will receive a free ticket for every four sold. In addition they are privileged to see the faculty program in the auditorium on Thursday, December 11. Twenty dollars will be given in in- dividual prizes. The highest salesman will receive S5g the second highest, 54g third, S35 fourth, 52, and the next six highest, one dollar each. As in previous years, Mrs. Mary Crouse is chairman of the ticket com- mittee.

Card Party Huge Success Despite the disagreeable weather, our Annual Welfare Card Party was a huge success. According to last year's statistics, only S100 pro t was made. This year we raised our quota by S55 or a total of 5155. Many of the students, who were not interested in playing cards, took advantage of danceing in the boys' gym. This money! will go into various wel- fare uses suc as glasses, clothing, etc.g for the needy stu ents in Woo ward. 4 BLIND XYLAPHONIST THRILLS AUDIENCE Pierce Knox Gets Deafening Applause From Upper Class Group Pierce Knox, noted blind xylaphon- ist, rendered his v e r s i o n of Home Sweet Home , Twelfth Street Rag, and I Don't Want to Set the World On Fire during the assembly period Monday morning, the deafening applause of the junior and senior stu- dents showed their appreciatin for this fine musical program.

Magaret Botzenhart received the tal- lie in the first hour class, and Harriet Korski, Patty Wood, Delores Perna and Helen Ross were others who were given these tickets. New Engineer There has been a transfer of chief engineers between Macomber Vocation- al and Woodward. Ray Parcell, who- held this position at Vocational for one and one half years, and at DeVilbiss for ten years, before coming here has replaced Mr. Atkinson, who is now at Macomber. Mr. Parcell stated that the only ne- cessity, besides being capable, for this job is to have state license. Mr. Moser, in charge of all engineer position a ppointments, made the change. PRIZE DISTRIBUTION, COMMENTS BY POST, CLOSE MAGAZINE DRIVE T'was the day before Thanksgiving, and all through the school, everyone was stirring and there was much confusion. Woodward played Santa Claus a month early. The prizes awarded for the magazine drive were distributed. In every room in the building, pupils were open- ing packages. The kids received gifts from foot- ball pins to loud noisy clocks. Jim Cole was thoughtful. He chose a red compact to give to his girl friend. Just like a boy. Chuck Mann took his flashlight apart and couldn't put it together again. R. Collins announced that in 20 years of work, with 6,000 schools over the country, Woodward was the first to go over the 53,000 margin. In the cam: paign carried on by Scott High School for band uni orms, a new record was made. The total exceeded Woodward's by 5400. Waite's established total was 51300. The purpose was to raise money for the school evaluation. The blue and white banner, with the W On the Novemeber 15 cover of the Saturday Evening Post, did not have any connection with Wood- ward. The cover was selected some months before the new record was made. However, Charles F. Turner, in his letter SHYSZ I do point out this! Had the artist intended to commemorate Woodward's magnificent success, he would have put a much happier expression on the subject's face,-do you not think so.

We are too con- cerned about the future and what it holds in store for us than we are with the things in life that count. True, we should be interested in the future for it is a natural concern of man. But very seldom does one of us realize the importance of such things as sight and hearing,and our attitude toward them if we should by chance lose them. Last Monday we saw a wonderful demonstration given by a man who is blind. The event was signif- icant in one distinct respect- it showed to every- one in the audience that this blind man had re- signed himself to the world of darkness and he had made the most of it. One single grlaring question remains out of his performance. hat question is simply this-How would we react if we were to lose our sight or our hearintg? This is a question for thought. It needs lots o thought. This is a question that perhaps can never be truly answered until we meet this situation face to ace. Let us hope that we shall never have to. Let's Get Started, Now VERY YEAR, as a means of raising funds for worthwhile purposes here in school, Woodward presents its annual carnival, Gayety Night. Formerly the proceeds were divided between the athletic department and some other project. This year all of the money will be turned over to the athletic association in an attempt to clear Woodward of its athletic debt. The Woodward coaches also have agreed to contribute 50 percent of their salaries. Ifour coaches are willing to do their part, then it is up to the students and faculty to show their interest. We can do this by making Gayety Night e huge success. We have three weeks yet. Sell tickets!Arrange for concessions! Secure donations! Now is the time to get started to make this Gayety Night the best Woodward has ever held. This Game Called Basketball SQUAD OF BOYS, who voluntarily render their 'leisure time to practice, make up our plromising basketball team. Ent usiasm prevails before every sport season. Each and every individual h old s in his bosom an honest belief that his team has something to offer. We have! Woodward is known city-wide and also beyond our gates for its splendid showing in this lie d. It has produced in previous years cagers of extraordinary qualities and this year will continue to turn out these fine specimens. Basketball is one game which brings spectator referee, and combatant in a much closer contact An on-looker is able to see every play in the game. and, can follow the team to its victorious end. The game is clean, p r ov i d e s enjoyment, and is most interesting. Let's get acquainted with our new team, and the only way to accomplish this is to attend the games We open tonight, fighting, with a winning spirit' and a hope of support from a most necessary source--, the student body. - In observance of National Education Week, Charles C. LaRue has substituted the following -oem by an unknown author, for his Principal Points. BUILDING A TEMPLE A builder builded a temple, He wrought it with grace and skill, Pillars and groins and arches All fashioned to work his will. Men said as they saw its beauty It shall never know decay. Great is thy skill, O builder: Thy fame shall endure for aye. A teacher builded a temple With loving and infinate care, Planning each arch with patience, Laying each stone with prayer. None praised his unoeasing efforts, None knew of his wondrous plan, For the temple the teacher builded Was unseen by the eyes of man. Gone is the builder's temple, Crumbled into the dust, Low lies each stately pillar, Food for consuming rust. But the temple the teacher builded Will last while the ages roll, For that beautiful unseen temple Is a ohild's immortal soul.

Conclusion: Ain't it sad? X THE WOODWARD TATTLER n BOY INTRA-MURALS BEGIN VOLLEY-BALL New As Major Sportg Smith Expects Competition To Be Stiif Intra-mural teams started a round- robin of volley ball this week, after having the Polish Li ts swipe top honors in pass and tap football finals. Although the Polish Lits tramped off with top position in the preceeding sport, this does not necessarily give them an edge in the present one, be- cause volley ball requires a different type of skill,from pass and tap football. Art Smith, di r e c t o r of intra-mural, sports stated that it would be difhcult to predict the probable high ranking teams until they are seen in action in the new game. Mr. Smith also ex- ressed the opinion that there would Be a closer contest in volley ball this season because the gym classes have stressed this sport more the last two years than ever before. This promises higher developed skills in all the teams. This year, for the first time, intra- mural volley ball is classed as a major sport on the intra-mural list. H Teams participating and captains are: Team Captains Adams Township, Jack Seymour Americans, Jim Ballmer Auto Mechanics, Bob Hunt Frosh All-Stars, Robert DuMounte Machine Shop, Frank Siwajek Polish Lits, Dan Kozakowski Printers, Richard Alex Renaissance, Bob Brent Nats Triumph In One Game With Managhan As High Man The National League bowling team won one of their three games with the Nats from the Libbey Cowboys.

Kornowa, Team Captain, Predicts Spirited Season Dave fno nicknamej Kornowa, the the captain of the varsity basketball team, proved to be an interesting, reg- ular fella to his interviewer. He is the fifth of the Kornowas in Woodward having had two sisters and two broth- ers preceed him. He is following his two brothers who were also on the varsity basketball team here. Dave, 5 feet '7 inches tall, hails from Hamilton grade school where he also played for- ward in basketball. Next to basketball, baseball and bowling rate high in sports. Dave was on the champion knot-hole team of the city which won a 22 inch trophy. He plays second base. It is his ambition to become a second base professional.

Wilson, Cheerleader Head Leaves Job For Basketball After serving three and one half yrs. as a cheerleader, Jack Wilson, captain of the cheerleaders, has left his position for a birth on the basketball team. Jack has served faithfully and Mrs. Upp said of him, He deserves a lot of credit for keeping up the enthusiam of the stu- dent body, and for training the cheer- leaders as they came in each year. Tom Marinelli will be appointed by Mrs. Upp to aot as captain during the basketball season. The captain duty is to place cheerleaders and decide what cheers to call. Any complaint falls on his sholders. Jack believes Tom will prove capable of his task. This is Tom's second year as a cheerleader. Others of this group include: Bob Durfey junior, Norman Abood, sopho- mor, and Bob Hallett, sophomore. WOODWARD TO MEET ROSSFORD IN BASKETBALL SEASON OPENER K ' .BiZ'N74l J' -Al?-ev All gym classes this week started volley ball as their pre-basketball sport. Single A learned fundamental skills, double A started a round robin. Triple A have choice. wk if :lf lk The varsity room was the scene of much action as the football squad- moved out to make room for the basket ball squad. HK 'li BK Pk The new suits and shoes are reported on the way and will be shown in the first game. lk Pk FII rr New baskets will be put up for the nearing basketball season. Former Bear Player Guest Speaker At First Meeting Rollie Boldt was guest speaker at the G.A.L. mass meeting during the assem- bly this morning. Mr. Boldt, a fo r m e r Woodwardite, played on our team at the old build- ing. After his graduation he p l a y ed professional basketball with the Toledo Red Men and now teaches at Point Place. Included in the assembly was a rous- ing pep talk by C.C. LaRue, and the introduction of the players by coach Homer Hanham. Janet Wozny and Isabelle Bieniek were co-chairmen for the first student assembly of the basketball season. BEAR CAGER TELLS ABOUT OWN SELF And at center for Woodward will be Irvin Wisniewski. You will hear these words at almost every basketball game as Irve takes the floor in the pivot spot for the Bears. Wiz, as he is better known, played varsity ball last year as a sophmore and again will take over this year. His six feet three inches served him in good stead, as he got almost every tip-off in last year's games. Irve has brown hair and green eyes which belong to a Scott girl w h os e name we were unable to obtain. This shy, quiet Junior rates algebra and machine shop as his favorite subjects while Mr. Thomae and Mrs. Upp head his teacher parade. However, there are no subjects or instructors which Wiz really dislikes. Rounding out his sport parade, we found that Irve was a center on the foot- ball squad and a member of the basket- ball nine. Irve cl o s e d the interview stating, Woodward will really go places in basketball competition this year. Hanham Hi-Lites Homer Hanham, varsity basketbal coach, this year begins his sixth season in that position. To liven interest in this part of the athletic program,a few facts about the results he has produced are given here. 3 if if Before taking over the varsity coach- ing job Mr. Hanham led the lightweight to four city titles out of five years. n s 1 The first year saw Woodward hold on to third position in city standing and go to deteat Central and Scott in tour- nament play. 1 lk It The Bears traveled that year to Co lumbus to play for state championship, but lost to Canton. Kornowa To Start Homer Hanham Tonight Woodward opens this 1941- 1942 basketball campaign against a strogg Rossford team on Bear hard- woo . As in past years Woodward goes in a heavy favorite over the light but fast River squad. With such veterans as Dave Kornowa, sharp shooting forward and fast tricky Bern Seymour, return- ing the Bears should score an easy vic- tory over the Rossford lads. The fast-break of Coach Homer Han- ham's Polar Bears which has proved so fatal in foregoing years will be the basis of the Woodward attack. Veter- an Irve Wisniewski, will probably start in the pivot slot where you can be sure he will give a good account of himself. .Wilso n, Seymour, Kornowa, Wis- niewski, and Jackson, veterans of last year, will form the probable starting lineup. Polar Bowlers Hold Top For Ninth Week In Girls' League Kathleen Moungie bowled an indi' vidual high score of 136 to take top honors in the Girls' Bowling League last Monday.

FACULTY, STUDENT FAVOR STATE TEST Fate Of Tests Depends On Decision Of Toledo Principals This year, as in previous y e a rs, an annual state test is to be given the first Saturday in May at Bowling Green. .Toledo high school students partici- pated in these tests until three years ago, when at a meeting of all city high school principals, it was decided to dis- continue sending Toledo pupils to take the exams. In an attempt to revive this practice the following poll was taken from Woodward faculty members ofthe v a rio u s academic departments and students with high scholastic ability: 1 l I Mrs. Kathryn Schuler-- The state tests are beneficial to the pupils in that it gives them a chance to see how their work compares with that of pupils from other schools. However, I do think that certain pupils should he tutored es- pecially for tests. 4 B I Floyd Lords- Since it's becoming more fashionable to place a premium on knowledge and brains the Bowling Green scholastic contest should aid in helping such a condition a1ong. 1 1 i Howard Phipps-- State tests help to give pupils recongnition for their work, 1t's good practice for them, and I cannot see any argument against it. 4 4 4 Mrs. Mary Crouse-- I am in favor of the Toledo high schools again entering the state tests at Bowling Green if there is uniformity through out the city in selecting the contestants. I am not in favor of making it a Cram test for afew. Each student in each high school should have an equal chance until the final selections are made. Then a couple of weeks immediatedly preceding the state tests, the contestants could be given special instructions. U C I Lois Frankowski--I believe the Bowl- ing Green state tests are beneficial to both the student participating and the school represented. As to extra tuor- ing, I think it very necessary because in any length of time a student is bound to forget some material. IVOXIKH' Dear Editor, Here is a problem confronting the Tattler staff. How can funds be raised for the purpose of sending Tattlers to boys in the United States service? Letters upon letters are being received from boys in the army and navy who had attended Woodward and still like to be up on school news. However, there is one difficulty. The Tattler staff is willing to donate Tattlers to these boys, but the mailing expense totals too great an amount for them to handle without some sort of aid. Any suggestions from the students about raising funds for this cause will be appreciated. A member of the staff. Dear Editor: This is another opinion regarding the band's playing at basketball games. The band just doesn't fit in with bas- ketball season. Are we going to sing A touchdown sure we ask today when we want them to make buckets ? Where are we going to put them-in the middle of the iloor? We can get all the music we want after the game at the dances in the girls' gym. The band helps to pep kids up in cold weather, but in a warm gym it would not be necessary. Let the band do their formation on the field, and let's keep the gym floor clear for basketball. A Woodward student. Editor's Note: Let us have more opin- ions from you students on whether the band should or should not play during basketball games. LEADER OF soPHs ' FOUND INTERESTING Zakolski Admires Cabinetg Would Like To Join Tattler When asked for a statement, the new sophomore class president, Norbert Zakolski, replied, Oh, put down the usual stuff. But I really do have a swell cabinet. That couldn't be because Betty Hansen is the secretary, could it. This brown-eyed, brown-haired sopho- more's favorite color is brown That is why he is usually seen in a brown swea- ter and brown trousers. Teachers maty complain, but Norbert still says his avorite food is chewing gum. Although he isn't interested in athle- tics, his favorite sport is basketball. He stands five feet nine inches and his weight varies between 140 anb 142 de- pending on what he eats the day before. Strangely enough, Norbert's ambition is to be a member of the Tattler staff. The only club he belongs to is the Hi-Y. He is one of the few boys in school who has received 3 A's and 1 B on his card. He must have a changeable mind for he has no hobby at present. He is frequently seen with Don Weber and Glen Weaner. Health, Tuberculosis, Press Associations Plan Project The Ohio Public Health Association in cooperation with the National Tu- berculosis Association and the Columbia Scholastic Press Association is sponsor- ing a School newspaper project in health education. The idea is to write an article on Tuberculosis for the school newspaper and ask the editor to publish it. The winner will receive an all expense trip to New York City in March. Anyone in Woodward may participate. News stories, feature stories, and edi- torials on the general theme of The Christmas Seal at Work are the type of articles wanted. Accuracy of medical and statistical information w i ll be considered important points by the judging committee. The entire newspaper with the story should be submitted to the local chair- man not later than January 12, 1942. Butterick Representative Talks To Home Ec.

Slides, depicting the steps from de- signing a dress to the completed pat- terns, were shown with comments given by Miss Gilray. Miss Gilray will return next year to price clothing and determine the high school girl's budget. Boys Sell Radio Tickets Chances on a radio valued at about twenty-dollars, are now being sold by A. R.

The boxin matches lanned are to take place Between Vtflbodward boys and outsiders chosen from various sport centers. Mr. Robie is asking for volunteers from Woodward boys to participate in the boxing matches. It has been planned that boys be chosen from Toledo Boys' Club, newsboys organization, Douglas Center, organiza- tion for colored boys, and the former Knights of Columbus to oppose the Woodward volunteers in the ring.

Mrs- Mane EWU? Adv sen l Hugh Montgomery Christmas Spirit Has Descended Here HE CHRISTMAS SPIRIT of Woodward is al- ready springing forth. The Dramatic club will present Mr. Scrooge, an adaptation by Ash- land Miller of Dicken's A Christmas Carol, De- cember 18-19, during the assembly period. There will be no charge since the Periclean Literary So- ciety has started its presentation of ifts by pay- ing the royalties for the rights to roguce the play. he success of the production diepends upon the hard work which is put on it and the support of the student body. As to the hard work, ask any person who has a art or Miss Warner. They are all preparing Mr. Scrooge to the best of their ability. They are re- linquishing hours of their free time after school in order to present this play in an unequaled fashion. Now, for the student body. We always express our appreciation for a Christmas gift, don't we? We gitgfr thank the giver or give a gift in return-or o . We can thank the Dramatic Club by giving our gersonal thanks whenever we see a member and y turning out an enthusiastic attendance at the two performances. Hear Our Appeal To You HE time has come when the student body is again called upon for the purpose of aiding their school. Gayety Nite, our annual carnival, is to be held next week, December 12. In the past years, the athletic expenses have been increasing. This year as before the fund is short approximately 52000. The carnival is sponsored for this purpose, to aid the dilinquent fund. Gayety Nite provides entertainment for each in- dividual personality. Theater lovers, will enjoy the movie in the auditoriumgwhile rugcutters willthrill to the jive masters in the girls' gym. The rugged type will find pleasure in the new athletic show to be held in the boys' gym. Food, drink, music, games, and rafiies, are on y a few of the concessions opened. We have stated our appeal. We now need your help, and it is help we need. The carnival must be a success. Go out and sell your tickets, come to the carnival, and help your school in the time of need. Our Business, Good Programs TTENTIVE audiences are always brought about by good programs. Especially is this applicable to high school audiences. There seems to be a tendency for high school students to talk and disturb during a program. Perhaps it is because these students sit with their friends. During a performance given several weeks ago by Pierce Knox, blind xylophonist, one of the most attentive audiences this year sat in Woodward's auditorium. This shows that good porgrams com. mand good attentive audiences. It should be Woodward's business to have good programs. With this done, good audiences will result- I Woodward Whispers I Much talk about the Zet-Peri dance is amongst the boys as well as the girls. 4 Ill If Someone shouting Oh, Royal! outside of 220 caused laughter to its occupants Efth hour.

Dave Kornowa, captain a n d for- ward, looked pretty good a g a in s t Rossford last Friday. He dumped in five field goals and two charity tosses for a big twelve points. This was a big factor in Wo0dward's 29-16 win over Rossford last Friday. Scott has a fast sure-shooting team of lads noted for their deadlineses, es- pecially under the basket. Woodward, on the other hand, showed up in fine style against the Rossford team. The Bears threatened constantly and looked especially good on foul shots. Although Coach Hanham hasn't given the starting lineup, it will probaly find Seymour andKornowa at forward, Wis- niewski at center and Jackson and Wil- son at guards. Twelve Tests Passed By G. Malkowski In Swim Classes The girls swimming class of Novem- ber 27, brought the following resultsg heading the girls is Gloria Malkowski with 12 tests passed. Following closely is Hanna Serafin with 11 tests to her credit. Janice Bartlebaugh, Frances Lathrop, Ruth Mormon and Kathryn Rudolph,have each passed 9 tests. Those that have passed eight tests are: Betty Timmons, Peg y Ball, Lois Ley, Ruth Spaulding, ang Lenore Wolcott. Doro- thy Hollopeter and Dorothy Pokrywka have completed seven and Helen Clark has six. The remaining number of tests passed are as follows: four girls, five, one girl, four, four girls, threeg and four girls, two. LONG-SHOT EXPERT HELPS WIN OPENER .-....,,,,4 F., W.. l ,.,, T... ' f 0 gf., t'i!Qi'fLi1g ix I ' Jack Seymour As might be expected, the favorite sport of Bernard Seymour is basket- ball, and has been for a number of years. This is based on his word and the fact that he has been active in this sport every year he has spent in Woodward. He first played with the freshman team, then the light- weight, and finallv for his second year on the varsity. This lad, who is six feet tall, was born in Toledo back in 1923, and now weighs 146 pounds. When Woodward opened its basket- ball campaign against Rossford, Bernard was in there at the opening whistle and nroved the spark which started the Bears attack on the basket. His first long shot failed, but the next two dropped through per- fectly. Bernard is different in two respects, he does not have ans' particular like in subjects and he efinitely prefers a good stage show anytime to a Hollywood production. As for food, Mexican chili tops the list. This cager, who handles the posi- tion of forward, has dark brown hair and blue eyes. He reports that he has no definite nlans for the future. When asked for his opinion of the Bears' chances in inter-city contest, he said, If we keep up the spirit and work together, we'll have a winning team. Bernard will be in there fight- ing all the way, and enthusiasm is contagious. 'iaossroao LOSES TO RESERVE FIVE Reserve Squad Looks Good In Fir t Tiltg 34-15 I Score Wilson Weis' re s erv e basketeers opened the 41-42 court campaign Fri- day with a sparkling win over the Rossford reserve five, 34-15. The complexion of the game was apparent from the opening w h is tl e when the fast passing Cubs hit the net twice for a four point lead. From then on the Cubs had things their own way. The enthusiasm of both squads led to the unintentional com- mitting of many fouls. Both Ted Miller and Bill Morlock of the Cubs retired early via the personal foul route. This failed to stop the smooth function of the Weis-men and half time found them leading 15-4. The second half was a repetition of the Hrst with the Cubs scoring freely. Bob Long, pint-sized forward, flayed the net relentlessly throughout the evening and wound up with 12 points to his credit. Others scoring luminar- ies were Payak 4 points, Seymour 5 points, Carns 4 points, Morlock 3 points, and Managhan, DuPont, Knier- im two points each. ,. EMBIWIUQ Captain Dave Kornowa sparked his team to a 2619 win over the Rossford Bulldogs last Friday. Dave scored the first point of the game on a charity toss. From there he ran his night total up to 12 markers. ll lk ll Syl Golembiewski, charging wing- back, was named on the first Toledo all-star squad. Bill Crosby, Bear tackle was named on the second team while Bob Krell, Frank Piasecki, John Patrez- bowski, and Ralph Trychowicz received honorable m e n tio n. Congratuations team. 3 III Pk Tonight Woodward battles Scott in the first game of the current cage cam- paign. The Bears have an edge on Scott having engaged in one game already this year. s o 1 The Baby Bears looked pretty good last Friday night especially when Peanuts Long had a habit ofdropping in shots from all over the floor. The small one is undoubtly the sparkplug of the whole Reserve attack. Peanut's 12 points against t h e Rossford light- weights was a definite threat. Girl's Athletic League Gives Awards From Fall Season Members of the G. A. L. who had earned athletic awards at the close of the fall season received them at the meeting in the auditoruim on Tuesday. Isabelle Bieniek, senior, was the only girl to receive her second chevron. Earning their first chevrons were three juniors: Eva Bankey, Dorothy Kaczo- rowski, and Lillian Truss.

Miss Hazel Rex, head of the Physical Education department of Toledo, spoke before the Girls' Atheltic League in the School auditorium, Tuesday, December Her subject was What Is the World Asking the Modern Girl To Do Today? Bits from her talk are as follows: There are 54 things that young women are called upon to do in this threatening emergency. Among them are: li g h t manufacturing, goverment work, firstaid, diet and canteen work- ers, social workers, child development, food preparations, nursing, education, and citizenship training. Boys, have no choice in these matter, they are told what to do by serving in the army. A definite place is marked out for them. The girls have the advan- tage of making their own decision. s s 0 Girls should learn self-management and self-direction. They should manage themselves according to the direction in which they want to go. F Ili Sk Young woman are facing the chal- lenge of mending and building up things while their men are facing the danger of war. an if :- If you take all the girls and women who are working for this emergency and have them join hands around the world, our universe would be surrounded, by serving, loving, living. providing, doing and building up. While their men are serving in the army, they are keeping the home fires burning! Mang Bears In Lead All The Way Woodward opened it's basketball sea- son last Friday when they handed the Rossford quintet a beating of 29-16, be- fore a capacity crowd. The Polar Bears entered the gym looking much the classier of the two, and held the upper hand all the way. Kornowa started the Bears attack on the basket when he made the first point of the game on a foul. Seymour's first try at the basket failed but his next two dropped in perfectly. Four more points were registered the first quarter, placing the score at 9-2. Both Rossford points were scored on fouls. The second canto saw the same type of ballhandling. The Bear cagers kept out in front of the Rossford Bulldogs adding seven points as against an add- itional four of the opponent. In the first, half, all field goals were long shots.The midway score read 16-6. In the third quarter, a scrappy out of town team returned to the field and. fought in even basis with the Bears Woodward's passing attacks were ex- cellent, but the Bulldogs fought stub- bornly and ended the third frame hav- ing made the same number ofpoints as Woodward. The score was 22-12. The last minutes of play Woodward once again surged ahead, looping in sev- en more points, while Rossford made another four. Homer Hanham made use of substitutes to finish the fray, the game ending 29-16. B. Seymour, J. Wilson, D. Jackson, I. Wisniewski, and D. Kornowa started the game. Sylvester Golembewski and Bob Brent were prominent as substi- tutes. Captain Dave Kornowa was high point man with twelve points, while Carvenec led the opponent attack with eight. Woodward G. F. T.

This year Jack plays guard and center. This hand- some lad has been seen three years on the track squad hurdling, broad jumping, and high jumping. His hurdling was classed as about second best in the city. When asked how he thought Woodward would come out in the city race, Jack stated, I won't predict anything definite, but we should go fairly well. Jack stands six feet and one inch above the playing floor and pushes 155 pounds of bone and muscle behind his passes. Upon graduating from Woodward, Jack hopes to attend T. U. and study chemical engineering. His flashing brown eyes match his hair and when they spy a plate of steak and french fried potatoes, J ack's mouth fairly waters.

HENZLER ON CASE Editor Reaches Ropes End, Knifed In Backg Quite Dead R N 'W D. Svouglas Come the happy seventh hour Thursday, December 11, while all the school was rejoicing because another day was ended, umpteen Saga mem- bers were dealt a shock upon enter- ing the Saga office only to see the corpse of their beloved editor, Dadie Souglas. How this tragedy came about is still a mystery to Ellery Queen Henzler and other members of the F.B.I. who have been assigned to this case. Inspector Henzler has disclosed the following clue: the victim was suspended from the chandelier with a rope tied about her neck. A jack knife in the middle of her back was shrewdly discovered by Mr. Henzler. The only finger prints on the knife were those of Raymond Sheline, Saga adviser. As a suspect, Mr. Sheline is entirely out of the question for outside of a fist fight he exchanged the day before with the now very dead editor, the two were the best of friends. Dadie Isn't Lady Now, Sadie wasn't a lady, there- fore she had few boy friends and no girl friends. So, who was the in- genious person to exterminate this uncouth creature? At the age of two, Sadie made her will leaving her entire fortune of 5.13 to two of her lifelong crushes, Nick Darah and Royal Kerr. The heirs are debating over the extra penny. Royal claims he should have it because he saw the corpse before Nick did. If anyone could possibly be inter- ested, the body may be seen in the Saga office just as it was found three days ago. Any clues discovered that could in- criminate somebody, should be turned over to Inspector Henzler because he don't know who done it! Woodwards Majorettes Given Future By Directors If you will recall the excellent per- formance of the drum majorettes at the DeVilbiss game, this will probably be of no surprise to you. Among the spec- tators at that game were se v eral of Hollywood directors. After seeing the girls dance and strut, they immediately insisted they be in the movies, and as the girls consented they will leave for California tomorrow. They claimed that Judy Justine was another Shirley Temple and asked her where she'd been hiding. As for Dora Young, the directors said that she was a dead image for ZaZu Pitts while Beverly Palmer, looked just like Greta Garbo. The other three girls will serve as stand-ins for the Man: brothers. SETTLES SETTING Woodward Bags and Wolves Will Entertain, Free Admission To brighten up the Christmas holi- days the Zelalethean Literary Society will sponsor a formal Christmas Eve dance, December 24, at the Bubble Bar . The place chosen was highly recom- mended by Miss Louise Tippett. A number of Woodward's most promis- ing students are employed as enter- tainers. The chorus holds four girls: Marie Holmes, Ruth Schiedler, Sus- anne Leorke, and Donna Surgeson. Sidney Adams and Ernest Wolden are two of the waiters. Although the affair is to be formal, the girls whose wardrobes do not hold long gowns are invited to wear their bathing suits. The boys can either wear tuxedos or their greasy over- alls. The Zets are not fussy! Guests of honor and chaperons in- clude: Howard Pipps escorting Miss Louise Tippett, Clyde Meek taking Miss Annie Wetterman, fwhat is she doing, two-timing Georgej, Miss Dorothy Warner as the guest of George Rohrer, and Miss Blanche Hazelton escorted by Myron T. Skinner. To assure the dance of being a great success there will be no ad- mission cost excepting the usual cover charge of one penny. Paul O. Thomae is Worthy adviser of the Zets. and Aniese Seed is the capable president. Confusin' But Not Amusin' A special announcement concern- ing all Woodward clubs was given by C.C. LaRue a few days ago. The Tattler considered it of such grave importance that it was immediate- ly placed in this issue. Mr. LaRue said that due to the fact that Friday will be on Satur- day this Sunday, the regular Mon- day club meetings scheduled for Tuesday will be held on Wednesday instead of Thursday this Friday. All club members are requested to remember this so that there will be no confusion. P D. SOUGLAS DEAD, ,SIZZLING SOCIETY STRAWBERRY BLONDE BEATS KATIE IN CONFLICT OVER GEORGIE ROHRER ...T,. After Years Of Hard Labor Messmer Is Duly Rewarded Dick Messmer, 42 graduate 'if Woodward, has accepted the position of advertising manager for the Boospie Breakfast, Food Co. He received this after years of hard work. As Mr. Messmer loudly asserted, Day after day, month after month, year after year, I ate Boopsie's every two hours. It got so I looked like a Boopsie. Finally, what I had strived for happened, muscles began to appear, I put on weight and became the image of vitality and energy. A man wrote Superman for me. Little babies were named Massy by wishful parents, hoping they would attain my beautiful physique. Now I have achieved my am- oition, advertising manager of the Boopsie Breakfast Food Co. with an office in the penthouse of South Street Asylum where I will teach all their little immates to eat Boopsies and become as intelligent and imposing as me. Rohr Purchases Comics As a result of numerous requests on the part of Miss Stella Sawtelle, W. F. Rohr recently took up a collection from the sweet 16 members of his Engi- neering Society and purchased the fol- lowing books for the lib rary. King Comics, Adventures of the Super- man, Little Red Riding Hood, Es- quire, Peek, Tip Tap Comics, and Dime Detective Novels. Pupils are urged to read these as they are examples of the highest type of literature. Temperatures Change A ghastly atmospheric change has taken place in the universe which is astonishing scientists all over the world. Due to the reversing of the axis, the weather has changed and hereafter,the customary temperatures in the north and south will be rev e r s e d. This of course meets with the satisfaction of the student body, for due to the heat the school term will be shortened. This information has been obtained from a very reliable source, Professor Loon Atick. SADIE HAWKINS DAY RACE PROVES FATAL TO JACK TAYLOR, CROUSE With a bang from C. C. LaRue's shotgun fpreserved from the Spanish- American Warj the annual Sadie Hawkins day faculty race has begun. This practice originated when, back a score of years or so, Mary O'Brien's pappy, Aloysius Romaine Bitter, de- cided it was time to marry his datter off to one of the handsome young members of the faculty. The men had their split-second start, and the ladies began to run, since this is the easiest way to hook a man. S. Csurefirej B. Crouse de- determinedly pauses to tie his shoe- string when he spots Miss Helen Ma- rie Griffen close behind him, but to his surprise he was pounced upon by Mrs. Hella Anderson, who has just narrowly nosed out Mrs. Marie Er- sig fsurprising with that nosej and Miss Grace Cutler. I-Iugh Montgomery is suddenly at- tracted by a devil's-food cake that Miss Angela Abair has planted on the path. George Rohrer trots at a slow rate, while silently praying in French that one or the other, Miss Dorothy Pasch or Miss Betty Nelson, catch him. Miss Annie Wetterman brings up the rear with the two blood-hounds that John Grodi loaned her to help her catch Leo Robie. As the sun drops low in the west the women-folks drag their prizes to the finishing line to tie the knot. Aloysius' datter, Mary, got the prize, however-J ack Taylor stubbed his toe on a suspicious looking log which suddenly fell across his path and was immediately grabbed. Dis- regarding his cries for mercy, Mary dragged him off to the finish line where they were hitched by Mar- ryin C. C. LaRue after Mr. Taylor was finally quieted by a delicate bop on the head from his loving fiancee. GIRLS DESERTEDg ANNIE WINS Dashing Hero George Rohrer Woodward's French teacher and most elegible bachelor has gone and done it! He's deserted all of us girls, wailed Ruthie Damraur in a high shrill voice. He had a hard time deciding be- tween that dashing brunette, Miss Catherine McClure, and the beautiful strawberry blonde, Miss Annie Wet- terman, Woodward's German and Spanish teacher. But of course, Annie used all her womanly wiles and beat Katie to the shall we say- draw. She did not win out, however, with- out a terrific battle. The grim con- testants fought bravely and furiously. Don't get us wrong-it wasn't a hand to hand combat. Catherine won the first round with the purchase of a startling red dress. Since strawberry blondes can't wear red, Annie had to think of one better trick. Consequently Georgie asked her to the Zet-Peri dance. Sooooo, Annie came forth in a beautiful, blue velvet, Schaperelli designed gown. Switching his flags again, George and Annie came forth triumphantly at the Senior Prom. These little tussels continued for several weeks until Georgie finally broke down the was completely worn outj and proposed to Miss A. Wetter- man. It was a delightful little wedding in a Bowling Green alley. Congratulations, to everyone con- cerned. Don't give up Katie there are other fish to fry. Tobacco Juice Spitter Ann To Be Starred In A Western It has just been learned from un- reliable sources that Warner Sisters movie company will make aWestern in Woodward. It will be called Dead Eye Dick Smashes the Scottish Pin Ball Rocket or Don't Tilt That Kilt. The title role will be played by Wat- son fwhich way did they gol Welever. The part of Klamity Ann will be play- ed by Miss Angela Abair, the only gal in the West who can blow smoke rings with tobacco juice. The audience must check their pistols and sawed-off shot guns before entering the set, as Mr. Welever is allergic to hardware. All persons throwing tomatoes will be asked to join the Anti-Vegetarian League. The movie willbe presented to ggudents on a D schedule, December However, those students having lunch fourth or fifth hour will not be ad- mitted. This is to avoid confusion. Attention Defense Priorites have made wood scarce so C. C' LaRue wishes to an- nounce that every girl will be compelled to knit three home-made hall passes.

Since students who pile theorems upon ypotheses and syllogisms in their heads often find that the logical positions have become somewhat precarious, why not obtain back-and-forth v i b r at io n s to counterbalance forget.ul gravity? According to Einstein motion is analogous with matter, so teachers, by merely imparting motion to pupils, posess the means to create brains rivaling genious. Even the enunciation of poetry would acquire a graceful swinging motion characteristic of rhythmic ndulmic ductuatins r a r e l y obtainable. Miss Warner's class might reach high C even during the anabatic period. Besides scholastically helping students, swings would also aid obesse persons in minimizing protrubatory tendencies. No Night Dances After 9 o'clock gg ECAUSE of various reasons, no night dances here in Woodward will be held after 9:30, stated Charles LaRue,lprincipa1. The above statement was given to the attler just before it went to Press. Upon urture inquiry, Mr. LaRue gave us what he termed as various reasons. The janitor cannot keep the building open after this time because he has to put his siok cat to bed at exactly 10 o'clock. The other reason given is that teacher-guard, Dean Johnson, must leave early so he can be on time at his popcorn stand. This is in deed unfortunate but we must make the most of it. We as truly Woodward students must be mindful of other people. Our hearts must be opened to the sick cat, our mouths closed to the popcorn. Let us adjust ourselves to the condition and hope that soon the cat will be well and the popcorn sold out. Halls Too Quiet T HAS come to my notice that the student body has been entirely too quiet. When one walks down the halls, all he sees is slow, unlifelike, walking figures. The halls during the lunch hours are no longer filthy or strewn with refuse. What has happened to cause this change in actions? The teachers are no longer nagging. The princi- pal is no longer threatening. Do we want a school of angels? We want kids who do just as they pxlease. Students who don't obey rules, just because t ey're told to do so. Come on kids! Don't let the teachers rule you.Do as you please. Throw refuse in the halls and make our school have that occupied look again.

Swiped Moldy Moments Delving into the World Problems of the moment, your news commentator Toweel Lhomas, sponsored by Iam A.Drippy Toothpowder, the toothpowder with a personality, will now bring you all those little nerve wracking problems that make your day a little more dreary. Japan---The Japanese army has decided to in- vade and conquer Hollywood. General Eiki Tojo decided this after seeing Lana Turner in her latest movie. Incidentally, if that new plate is dirty just try Iam A. Drippy Toothpowder. It. cleans plates, dishes, knives, and forks.

The Third Degree Now is the time to confess. Who shot Mr. Meek? Did you do it' Bob Blank? Your motive? There you were, telling Marcella Flowers how too, too divine she is and Mr. Meek overheard you. Afraid he would hold this over your head, you shot him! O, No, It must have been, Betty Davis. She was just about to talk to Bob Beattie when Mr. Meek walked up and spoiled it all. Frustrated love,that's it I! Wait a minute! Who's that hiding behind the bookcase? Come out you, book worm, and confess. Yes, I admit it shrieked Billy Searles, I'm the crumb you,re hunting. I didn't mean to shoot him but when Lucille Foley asked me to the Zet-Peri dance I was so happy I forgot where I was shoot- ing. Poor Mr. Meek. Here you take it, it's too dangerous a weapon for me to handle. Believe me I'll never even touch a beanshooter again.

Under The Mistletoe According to an old tradition, a person standing under a sprig of mistletoe is permitted to be kissed. Remembering this, Margery Sharer placed a por- tion of the forbidden fruit in one of Woodward's most popular entrances and waited there for her dream-man Alas! The lucky victim approached and by a winking of the eye, Margery caught the distin- guished Howard Phipps under that fatal spot and bingo---smack dab on The Fly's Paradise or, to you who know Howard only slightly, his forehead. In the meantime, spying the disguised poisen as she and Bob Domino entered the building, Frances Lathrop wildly shrieked, Well what are we wait- ing for? and the inevitable once more happened. At this time Ed Sloan, who, as usual. was ap- proaching the dean's office, came face to face with Clyde Meek directly under our little mis- chievious heroine.Immediatel Edward fell to his knees and daintily kissed Meek's hand. fl-Ie later explained that Ruth Schiedler had taught him this.J This act resulted in the Junior Class president receiving no more blue slips. However this proved to be too much for Miss Mistletoe as she curled up and died and in a few days smelled as bad as the story you just read.

THE WOODWARD TA'I'I'LER TAYLOR TOO ROUGH IS SAVAGE DECREE Women Haters Get Defeat At Hands Of Hensg Cooped Tweeeet-as the whistle shrieks, Miss Hannah Shaw, lanky center on the Woodward Women Wizards, jumps at center against Doc Welever commonly known as Wolf Welever. Something seems wrong with the men teachers for the women are run- ning away with the game. At this point Jack Taylor comes into substi- tute for Art Smith who now has a broken back and a scratched arm. fl-le got in a fight over the ball against Mrs. Hella Andersoirl Like a splurge of lightning, Camilla Savagc tears down the floor, inter- cepts a pass intended for Taylor and starts dribbling gracefully. Jack Tay- lor' temper, aroused because of Sav- age intercepted pass, runs wildly after her and throws a beautiful roll block so as to have the official say jump ball. How the Women Haters caught up with their opponents is a mystery, but maybe it is due to the fact that Joe Dence controlled the scoreboard. Savage seems to be the whole team for the Wizards and with the able assistance of cure-shot Schuler, the feminine wonders again go out in the lead. After the performance was over, the athletic board seeing the won- derful qualities Miss Savage has in basketball, named her coach of the 1942-1943 squad. Upon asking her to say a few words she stated, I will do my best to teach them to be ag- gressive and be good ball handlers like myself. And furthermore to be able to sidestep a block such as was thrown by Mr. Taylor. Opportunity Club To Have Handkerchief Concession The Opportunity Club, made up of students from the Everyday Living classes are having a handkerchief booth for Gayety Nite. The booth will be in front of room 127 and the price of the handkerchiefs will be ten cents. The handkerchiefs will be placed inside Christmas cards. The com- mittee includes: Patronella Zakrewski, Betty Miller and Fred Laderman. Miss Annie Wetterman is a d v i s e r of the group. FAMOUS PRO GIVES TIPS ON BOWLING Unknown Girl Bowler Tells How To Bowl And Like It This is the first in a series of articles on bowling etiquette for ladies by an unknown professional bowlerette, and after writing this I wish to remain unknown. Wearing apparel can either make or break a bowler. The first step in the breaking is helped along by the toeless, spike heeled shoes required before you are allowed to enter the allies. Formals are the preferred at- tire, but lavender and pink are ban- ned because they cause too much glare on the eyes of the pin boys. To get the best results glide up to the foul line to the tune of Roll, Roll, Roll Your Ball and follow through with Gently down the alley. If by chance you light the little light that rings the little bell, you get ten little points added to your little score. The best way to bowl your ball is to steam it down the gutter-I mean the alley, the object being to see how many times you can knock out the pin boy. After each delivery of the ball, you should take a fifteen minute intermission, for after all you should be sporty enough to allow the pin boy time to be revived. During this intermission hot dogs and cokes will be served free. Three Varsity Players Hurt In Rough, Rugged New Sport Whats game! Whata gamelI've nev er seen anything like it before. Oh hel lo, you're just in time, it,s just started. Oh look, there goes Golembiewski throwing the ball to Krell, who catches it in his eagerly awaiting hands. Krell, who is shaking like jelled jello, cautiously looks at the ball, bounces it, catches it, bouncesit,catches it, bounces it--and he missed it! With a look ofutter disgust, he passes it to Wandtke. Wand- tke is throwing. It hit the ground, You're out yells Frankowski, snatching the ball. And you're cheating, why should I be out? yells Wandtke back. Look at them, they're fighting now. Jumping catfish! Wandke has just given Frankowski a black eye. It s disgusting. I'm going home. It's murder playing Jacks with those guys. CHARLIE INSTITUTES CHAIN-GANG TO QUIET N OISY WOODWARDITES - U A To Be Shackled Charles lsometimes called Mr. La- Ruel, said that due to the unruliness of the students here, that the chain- gang must be instituted. At first his brain-storm fgood and cloudy brain- stormj was met by disapproval by our loyal alma mater, but the up- rising was quelled by the announce- ment that boys and ffirls in the line would be alternated. Charles Wymer was still in doubt about the worth- iness of the plan until our principal- dictator added that partners would be changed every 45 minutes. Things were going O.K., with the plans for the chain-gang progressing and useless expenditures being made with seldom more than 73 percent graft, but there were still a few more wrenches in the mechanism. Isadore Gralak was one of them. He demand- ed that girls should not wear kiss- proof lip-stick because that way, the boys wouldn't be able to determine who was the champion kisser for quantity. Another barrier to be overcome was the majority of girls over boys in Woodward. LaRue said this wasn't a major difficulty, because he said that he may be coaxed into enter- taining them in his office. Calvin Lemerand, one of the more restrained boys at Woodward, offered a solution which was accepted with an amendment. Mr. Lemerand said the extra. girls could go off in a corner with him for a nice quiet game of . . . rummy. The amendment was that LaRue would be allowed to join them. , POLAR BEERS WALK OVER GOONS FROM SCOTT, MACOMBER, YEA TEAM F , , K Bears Bare Teeth In Brutal Wilson Buys Shots, Cigarsg Gets Lightweight m Soused Wilson Weis, lightweight basketball coach, gave this Tattler reportera hush- hush scoop on his new training meth- ods. He said he didnt want it to get around, so don't tell anyone. His plan is based on the strategy of surprise. First, he will start Duhart and Calahan smoking strong black cigars. Then he will buy drinks fincluding Three Roses, various cocktails and winesl and pass them around to his squad. When the boys get soused he will take them up town to publicize the fact that the Woodward reserves are all breaking training. In fact, Bob Long and Jim Kinierem were out on benders for the last three nights, Mr. Weis told rne. Then comes his strategy. All the lightweight squads of the city will feel that Woodward will be a push-over, but when Bear squad act- ually plays, they will beat them due to their over-conidence. Mr. Weis stated the boys are getting to like his idea. Polar Bears Invited To Play Notre Dame New Year's Day Woodward's unvictorious, u n t ie d football team has been invited to play Notre Dame in the Assorted Nut Bowl on Newis Day. It was no surprise, as Frank Leahy and Jack Taylor attended Vassar to- gether. Several of the players e x p r e s s e d their opinion as follows: Marvin Bucher: We'll moider em! Syl Golembiewski: Wait'll I get that Bertelli. Cliff Frankowski: Boy, those Cali- fornia girls. Kate McClure's Wicked Eye Trick Climaxes Beanie Drive Due to the surplus of beanies Boating around in the girls' gym, every loyal Woodward student is expected to buy one immediately. To start this Get rid of the beanie drive, the football play ers are each purchasing two, one for themselves and one for their best girl. Al Ustazewski, better known as Mr. Smith, is furtively hunting for a pretty little head to wear his extra beanie. As an extra inducement, each stu- dent who buys a beanie, will ba allowed to see Miss Catherine McClure do her 'sh eyes act. Take it from me ---- she really can do it. . Wrestle Royal Will Be High Spot During Athletic Show An unusual feature of the athletic show in the boys' gym on Gayety Nite will be a wrestle royal with six boys participating. 'Ihe athletic show will give two performances and the wrestle royal will take the high spot in one of performances. At which performance this fray will be fought is a secret among the supervisors. This will excite more enthusiasm in favor of the athletic show. SPORTS STUFF At a recent meeting of the Riding Club a proposal was made by which the members will ride Polar Bears instead of the usual horses This is due to loy- alty of its members to our school. The members here after will meet on Blue Monday, and will be required to wear heavy snow suits of blue and white, due to the icy cold of the bear weather. il HF K Due to the extreme weather condi tions swimming classes will meet at the Maumee Riverfor instruct.ons. Instruc- tress Know-it-all And-more-too says that this will also improve their swim- ming ability 100 percent, for they are taking the students in boats, and then when they reach the waters with depth of 50 feet over they go, to swim, or else-- Battle, Badly Beating Bulldogs, Etc. Homer Hanham The Woodward Beers, after cover- ing the gym fioors with a coat of icing, easilv pushed ahead of the Scotters and Mac's, who were left behind with a certain slipping feeling. The Bears looped into the basket one snowball after another. Before too long the sons of the Northern Iceberg had a figure of points that even Morgan would be proud of. The opponents, ten men, five Bull's and five Mac's fwe challenged both teams at oncej just fell all over themselves. Wilson and Seymour kept them- selves busy making the balls while Kornowa and Wisniewski often acci- dentally beaned some of the goons who had decided to have a game be- tween themselves. Reemsnyder's band made an appearance and began play- ing the jumping jive. Each eager chose a partner for a jazz session. Hanham stood in the sidelines pull- ing his hair out because Miss Griffin was dancing with Art Smith, and he had bet his monthly pay check that she was that wav about W. W. Golembiewski soon got tired of the booglv wooglv with his partner and clipped him when he was sure no one was watching. Referee LaRue finally called an end to the spree at 11:30, declaring the present age of youth was too fast for him.

WOODWARD'S HIGHEST SALESMEN REVEAL TICKET SELLING- TECHNIQUE I never really expected it, said Mary Hoffman, Woodward's highest Gayety Nite ticket seller up to Thurs- day, when told she led the student body in ticket sales. Upon inquiry on how she sold 36 tickets, this very excited sophomore said that there was no special technique, it was just a matter of selling them to her friends. Win or lose, Mary will be among the crowd at tonight's carnival. Richard Coy, a freshman, and Wil- liam Crosby, a senior, tied for the second place prize and led the boys' sales for Gayety Nite tickets Thurs- day at the end of first hour, with each turning in money for 12 tickets. However, awards are made on totals turned in Friday morning. Besides his brilliant football career here at Woodward, William Crosby combines salesmanship with his sched- ule. That Bing exercised his sales technique on the customers in the drug store where he works is proven by the fact that he tied for second place in the Gayety Nite sales. Bill lists Miss Angela Abair as his favorite teacher. Maybe, Bill is her favorite pupil for upon hearing that he was one of the highest salesmen, she exclaimed, Whoops, are we the highest? This senior's further cooperation for the success of Gayety Nite will be shown when he works in the con- cession operated by the football boys under Jack Taylor's direction. Regardless of the fact that Rich- ard Joy is but a freshman, he may win the second individual award of 54.00. Richard's sales methods were practiced on his friends. His leader- ship is proved by his holding the posi- tion of president of his everyday liv- ing class. Although he is a super- salesman, his ambition has nothing to do with salesmanship. Dick is deeply interested in the raising of domestic animals, which he does dur- ing the summer on a farm willed to him, and of which he has full charge. Dick is in the home room of Miss Ethel Kerlin. Mr. Montgomery Hugh Montgomery's print shop boys with 119 per cent led the school in Gayety Nite ticket sales which on Thursday amounted to S350.40, ac- cording to Mrs. Mary Crouse, faculty member in charge of sales. This is an increase of 372.90 over last week's report. Money for 2125 tickets was turned in when this story went to press. Final reports on ticket sales cannot be made until after col- lections on today and Monday. Principal Charles La Rue expressed the belief that the intemational situa- tion was partially responsible for the decrease in this year's sales over last. The fifteen highest home rooms fol- lowing in order are: Elmer Vorder- burg, 62le per cent, Miss Anne Wet- terman, 58 per cent, Miss Angela Abair, 52 per cent, Mrs. Mary O'Brien, 50 per cent, Mrs. Mary Crouse, 47 per cent, Miss Ethel Kerlin, 47 per cent, W. F. Rohr, 44 per cent, Wat- son Welever, 41 per cent, Charles Staneart, 39 per cent, Miss Katherine Tobin, 37 per cent, Mrs. Marie Ersig, 37 per cent, Leo Robie, 36 per cent, Miss Helen Marie Griffin, 34 per cent, and Jack Taylor, 33 per cent. New House of Magic To Be Given By Electrical Society One of the most outstanding conces- sions t oni g h t is the House of Magis, constructed bythe Electrical Club under the supervision of A.R. Bitter. Demon- strations of fiuorescrnt lights, electric eyes, movie sound tracks, oscilloscopes, phonographs, color exposition, and the world's largest radio, w h ich is seven feet long and four feet high, will be shown. The most interesting demonetra' tion is the production of a quarter of a million volts made harmless by scien- tific methods, from an original coil built by Nikola Tesla. These demonstrations were construct- ed by the following members of the Electrical Club: Dan Muszynski, presi- dent, Fred Fadell, vice president, Jim Davis, secretary, Lowell Kilman, treas- urer, Frank Komisarek, sergeant-ab arms, Glenn Williams, reporter, Bob Kubicki, Heonard Fronczak,J im Swaya, Dole Bernath, Jan Jaciejewski, Alfred David. and George Abdelnour.

Of course, this is much better for the family when it comes to the purchasing of Christ- mas and birthday gifts, but think how the doomed ones must suffer. Any- way Happy Birthday children!

Merry Christmas Happy New Year ESPITE unfinished w o r l d conditions, the Tsttler staff, together with its advisers, ex- tends a most hearty Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to Woodward's faculty and the student body. Peace on earth, good will toward men may seem impossible to achieve this Christmas with all the world in such a turmoil. The birth of Christ was a result of a disturbed hemisphere and was brought about to bring peace, not just to physical conditions but mainly spiritual. Living in a country with free- dom of religion we have already secured this peace and while praying for preservation we can truly have a Merry Christmas. Knowing that God knows right from wrong our prayers will be answered, and thus we have a Happy New Year. This year, as never before, we can exchange sea- son's greetings not just as a mere formality, but with a certain fervor of hope that will he fulfilled. - Good News For Unsat Receivers RE you bubbling over with exuberance from the knowledge that you are going to have a lot of fun over the holidays? You know of course that unsats are supposed to come out before Christmas vacation. Because Mr. LaRue doesn't want us to be down hearted for Christmas and New Year, however, the office is not going to circulate them until we get back. Examinations come January 21-22. We can bring those grades up ifwe try. Make a New Year's resoluion to work harder and really accomplish something. You may get an unsat, but take it on the chin and buckle down. With these trying times you can't be irresponsible and neglectful. Every boy and girl in the nation must be ready to do his duty when and if the time comes for them to be called. In the meantime, we can prepare ourselves for that duty by being faith- ful to the small everyday things that have always confronted us. This means our education. It isn't so hard to get. All it requires is a little steady work We can do it. Recognition For Hard Workers HUSH has reigned over the school for the past week. The rush is ended. Gayety Nite and the work connected with it has been finished for another year. The carnival was a great success. We give not to be recognized, but from the depths of our hearts. People behind the scenes who forfeited their plea- sure to work in booths should gain their due recog- nition. It was not an easy task, but the outcome of the carnival was due partly to their labors. The clean u committee did a splendid piece of work. These boys came back to school on Saturday to make the school more presentable.The student body should also be credited for their hundred per cent backing. Their spirit was wideopen for succses.The faculty members are not to be forgotten for their lasting assistance. The cooperation surpassed that of many other affairs. The yuletide spirit has come, but we are going back to the days of November. We are extending our thanks to you who so willingly rendered your services in promoting Gayety Nite. 1 Neighborly Notes g On December fifteenth our bill of rights 1, was exactly one hundred fifty years old. J f For some reason the Constitutional Con- vention in formulating the constitution if I did not see tit to embody these princi- ples in the original draft of that docu- Q .,,. , ment: However, we had barely started to I bi '..- function as a government when agitati in in the various states resulted in the amendments to the constitution that have always been referred to as the bill of rights. These statements of the rights of citizens to free- dom of speech, freedom of worship, freedom of the press, and freedom of assembly were not just fab- ricated by our forefathers and added to the Consti tution. Every one had come down to them out of the years through the struggles, the sacrifice, and the blood of martyred champions. In a country such as ours, to use the langugage of the Declaration of Independence, Conceived in lib- erty these principles constitute a sacred trust. Since they are handed down to us for our enjoyment so must we in turn see that succeeding generations enjoy the same liberties. Not all peoples have been privileged to have such governmental protection. All along during the past century and a half nations have risen and fallen. Just in the last decade we have witnessed the downfall of liberty in nearly all of the countries of Europe. While this has been happening to our neighbors we have for the most part taken our own liberties for granted. It is human nature not to be too appreciative of any good thing until it is taken away or its loss theatened. Now that we have seen what has hap- pened to the civil liberties of our European neigh- bors our own become more precious. Citizens who have never thought about the terrible implication of the loss of these liberties are now becoming extremely conscious of their value. They realize as never before that all the zest and glory of living are wrapped up in the spirit of these principles and that since they are a part of life itself they must be defended and preserved with our lives. ,Milil- Trimming A Tree 1. Acquire a tree. Now this can be accomplished by various ways. Are your neighbors home? Get your little hatchet out and try Washington's tech- nique but not on a cherry tree. Crummy looking, isn't it? Well, what do you want free of gratis? 2. Paint it silver.lthat's the stylej Borrow some paint brushes from your favorite house painter and then go to town. Needles come out don't they? But then, a needleless tree is rather unique. 3. Put little balls on it. These can probably be obtained from the attic. Can't you find any? Don't you have any? Did you break them? Then do all your buying at the five and ten store. While you're there do the rest of your Christmas shopping. Don't you know what to buy that rich aunt or the brat next door? The only thing to do is send a telegram to Santa Claus, Qcollectl. ,lili- Party Pranksters Twas the night before Christmas and all through the house--there was a big party going full blast.

Kornowa Breaks Left Arm, Continues Playing Until Gun Dave Kornowa, captain and for- ward of the Woodward Polar Bears, will be out for an indefinite period because of a broken left hand suf- fered in the Scott-Woodward tilt. Korn broke his port arm late in the third stanza, but kept playing up till the final gun. This was not the only injury so far in the season, however. Irve Wis- newski and Dan Jackson, both Bear squadmen, collided. Wis came out with a chipped tooth while Danny came up with a cut head. Despite these wounds, Woodward is really out for a win tonight. WEIS CAGERS LOSE TO SCOTT, MECHS M a c Reserves Down Bears 31-28g Scott Wins 33-19 Woodward's plucky R e s e r v e s dropped another heartbreaker to the Macomber seconds, 31-28, Thursday on the Mechanics' floor. The Cubs, hampered by the loss of Bob Long, high scoring forward, played hard clean basketball and led till the closing minutes of play when two baskets turned victory to defeat. The game started slowly, but reached fever pitch in the second quarter when both teams began hit- ting from all parts of the floor. Lanky Ted Miller led the scoring .vith 10 points to his credit. He was followed by Dick Seymour with seven and John Payak with five. Carns had four and Knierim and Morelock one each. The excellent floor play of Kneirim and Payak stood out during the game. The Scott Reserves poured a 33-19 count at the Woodward Baby Bears to win the decision by a big margin two weeks ago. Captain John Payak led the Bear lightweights with 9 points while Mc- Grayle paced the Bulldogs with 11 markers. The score at the half was: Scott 15, Woodward 8.

Doris bowled a 155. Norma Wildey raised her usual 117 average to 119. Frances Olszewski's 185 brought her into third place with a 104 average. Second and fourth places were taken by Betty Giha with 105 and Helen Bunner with 103. Monday's bowling brought little change in the team standings. BOXING, WRESTLING SHINE AT CARNIVAL Twelve All-Star Bouts In Boys' Gym Attracts Large Crowds King Fistanna reigned in Wood- ward Friday night as the annual Gayety Nite boxing card was pre- sented to enthusiastic squarred circle fans in the Boys' Gym. Twelve all-star bouts, including a boxing and three wrestling matches, were staged for the immense crowd that thronged the Boys' Gym for both cards. In the first show after Frank Dallas of Woodward and Ed Barker from the North Toledo Community House had both notched easy vic- tories, the boys settled down to the business at hand. Jim fKangaroo Kickj Swaya de- feated Ted fAli Ba Bal Abood in five minutes 40 seconds of a one-fall com- edy wrestling match. Other first show results found: Maciewjewski defeat- ing Malinowskig Tuffy Zurob scoring a technical knockout over Bill Ormis- ton of Libbeyg Paul Varwig defeating Warren Wannamaker of Libbey in the feature bout, Joe Ustazewski and Louis Kearney fighting a furious draw, and Bukowski and Kwasniak also drawing. A rassle-royal opened the second card, and Stevens and Matusiewicz emerged victorious. Then in the re- maining course of entertainment Haddad defeated Daniels, McFarlane drew with Merce of Libbey, DuHart outpointed Jeffries of Libbey, and Bud Carr dropped Jack Baker. Joe Dence and Leo Robie served as third men in the ring, 'and Ralph Zychowicz announced the bouts. .tenaissance Hold High Place By Conquering Americans The Rens topped the Americans to hold their lead in the Intra-Mural league. Other games and their re- sults in the volleyball play offs are as follows: Adams Township beat the Printersg Auto Mechanics topped the Machine Shop, and the Frosh All Stars lost to Polish Lits. Because of failure of announce- ment, the games were not run off Monday night, however, next Monday will find the league-leading Rens pit- ted against Adams Township, the Ma- chne Shop vs. the Americans, the Polish Lits against the Auto Mechan- ics, and the Frosh All Stars vs. the Printers. JOHN PAYAK, DAN JACKSON, GUARDS, REVEAL INTERESTING FACTS IN QUIZ Springing from a family of intel- lectuals, Johnny Payak will probably enhance the family record not only with his attainments in learning but with his ability in the athletic de- partment. Speaking of J ohnny's fam- ily, Johnny has three sisters who at- tended Woodward, all of whom were members of the Tattler staff, and winners of scholarships to Toledo University. Speaking of athletic ability, Johnny is a member of the lightweight bas- ketball squad and was acting captain at the Scott game. Johnny is that stellar guard you see dashing up and down the fioor with the ease of a Chuckovits. In respect to basketball and without any disloyalty but merely the viewpoint of an impersonal ob- server, Johnny picks the Irish from Central to be city champions. Come spring, Johnny is going to try out for the track squad and the baseball team. He will attempt to fill in the hole at second base when Dave Kornowa graduates. l Johnny has one hobby, bowling. This takes up most of his spare time. Next year he would like to become a member of the H-Y. Johnny is study- ing to be a draftsman and would like to attend college, preferably Michigan He is seen with John Calahan anr' Jim Knierim, once more proving that football and basketball players nat- urally graviate toward each other. Introducing Dan Jackson, versatile basketeer of four years' standing on the Bears' squads, who has been doing a great deal of A-1 guarding this year. Dan, an 18-year-old senior who formerly was one of Homer Han- ham's mainstays in previous battles, will no doubt pile up more glory in tonight's fray at Libbey. This 66-inch boy of only 130 pounds contributes his speed each spring to the track team and will probably end up with five letters when he grad- uates. Having his time taken up by sports, he reports no hobby. With Dan in tonight, Libbey can expect plenty of trouble around the guard position. BEARS DROP GAMEg WIN ANOTHER 30-29 Woodward Loses Thriller To Scotty Topples Mechanics Defeat and victory have been de- cided by a one-point margin in Wood- ward's last two games with victory over Macomber and defeat by the Bulldogs. The varsity basketball quintet de- feated a like number of net shooters from Macomber Vocational last Thurs- day night in an overtime game, 30 to 29. Led by Wiesniewski with eleven points, the Bears managed to lead the Mechanics a merry chase. Danny Jackson and Bernard Seymour followed lrv's precision and made six points each. Jack Wilson ended up with three, Bob Brent and Syl Golem- biewski two each. The downtown floor fiushers were led by Kerr and Whitacre with seven points each. The Woodward Polar Bears tasted lefeat for the first time in the season when they were dropped by a tough Scott team, 31' to 30. The Bears took an early lead and held it till the fourth quarter when a field goal by Scott clinched and spelled victory for the Bulldoggers. Kornowa led the Polar Bears with five points. . Polar Basketeers To Travel To Delphos, Ohio, For Game The Woodward Polar Bear Basket- eers will make their initial trip De- cember 26 when they move to Del- phos, Ohio, to undertake St. John's High School. The trip, a 91 mile trek, will be taken in the four cars furnished by the coaching staff and athletic board. Coach Hanham, Joe Dence, Arnold Brown, Wilson Weis will pilot the squad in their own cars. Twelve squad members will go to Delphos to undertake a suspected hard game. Captain Kornowa, who will be out another month with a broken hand, will probably take the trip to watch his teammates bid for their first out-of-tovim win.

Rohr, Miss June Anderson, Miss Hazel Coy, Miss Blanche Hazelton, Mrs. Kathryn Schuler, and Art Smith. Joe Dence, Proud Father-Boy If Jack Taylor is still coaching Wood- ward's team in 1958, a proud father will watch his son become one of Wood- ward's football stars. These are the hopes of Joe Dence, business arithmetic teacher, whos e son, weighing four pounds and seven ounces, was born December 16, 1941. Mother and son are both feeling well and happy in the Toledo Hospital. Mrs. Dence does not wish to disclose the name to be given to him until announce- ments are sent out to her friends. 'Twas the night before Christmas and all through the house not a creature was stirring--except Santa Claus. The gunny sacks were hung by the furnace with care, in hopes that Saint Nicholas soon would be there. The brats were hiding all snug in their corners, all visions of robbery danced in their heads. And Mama in her straight jacket and I in my cradle, had just settled our brains for a winter's murder. When out in the alley there a r o s e such a clatter, I sprang from my hide- out to see what was the matter. Away to the window I flew like a snail, tore opeln the shutters with no hammer or na1 . When what to my greedy orbs should appear, but an old model T and eight tiny mice. With a big clumsy driver so dumb, yet slick, I knew in -a moment it sd vel-5-V -J must be St. Nick. As he whistled and yelled and called them by name, slowly but surely, on they came. The victim was dressed in rags from his head to his foot, and his clothes were all tarnished with ashes and soot. A bundle of bombs he had flung on his back, and he looked like a gangster opening his loot. His eyes how they bulged, his cheeks were like potatoes, and his nose was like a cucumber. His droll mouth was drawn up like a prune, and the beard on his chin was just like a broom. The stub of a stogie he held tight in his teeth, and the smoke en- circled his head like a wreath. He said not a word, but went straight to his work. Then robbing the gunny sacks he turned with a jerk, then laying his finger aside of his head, he discov- ered that he was dead.

Woodward Students Jarred The only thing the kids didn't mind was the fact that they were half hour tardy for school Tuesday morning. The North End Crosstown bus, de- scribed by one passenger as a udinky affair, struck a telephone pole at Columbus Street. Most of the riders were Woodward pupils with a few Cen- tral attenders. No one was injured but it was a mighty jar. Special Price For T.U. Play Sydney Howard's The Late Christ opher Bean will be presented by the Toledo University Theatre January 8, 9, 10, 1942.

In other words, we have been trying merely to get by on the least possible work, sort of putting our homework on the culT, hoping to get out of doing it rather than clean it up. Just so we would get by. Let's stop that, not with New Year's resolutions, because they are only words. Action, as the old proverb goes, speaks louder. Let's take our work on the chin and get it done. Clean up your old cuffs to start a new year with a clean cuff, and then let's keep 'em that way. In Appreciation Of The Ohristma Carol ID YOU say courtesy? To a great many stu- dents in Woodward high school this word means little more than a word spelled right on a test. At the Christmas play Mr. Scrooge given in our own auditorium the 17 and 18, the kids, ' in every sense of the word, laughed at serious scenes where the players put forth performances worthy of their undivided attention. Most of the students, however, realized this, and so on their behalf the Tattler extends its congratu- lations to Miss Dorothy Warner, the director who helped put it over , to Kenneth Zimmerman who played Scrooge like a veteran: to Philip Mansour who portrayed so faithfully Jacob Marley, and to every participant who spent hours after school towards the goal they reached, when they gave us a good show done well. . REMEMBER! EMEMBER PEARL HARBOR! A new slogan for a new war. War! Something we have read about: we have thought and talked ofit. But now, for the first time in the lives of us students, we are participating in it. Never before have we lived through a period of wariunity. Now is the time when so called Hag waving is notjust an act of a Vociferious patriot. In Woodward we have our school spirit. Now we must add the great spirit of Nationalism. The power of a nation truly united-is derived to a great extent from the youth of that country--who realize the value of the principles for which that country fights. We stand firmly for nothing less than an undenia- ble victory against our adversary. We students of Woodward will do to the best of our ability what- ever we can, to bring that about. The United States government has here a loyal group of young citizens. Zoological Woodwardites Rabbit .....,..............................................

Anyway, while you've been gone, lots has happened--so here goes. l l l There's no doubt that Jean Marzec and Lois Roth believe in Santa Claus. For further details, ask them about what they found in their Christmas stockings. s o a You probably heard, but the Peri-Zet formal was one gala event. a o u I don't know whether to blame it on the holi- day season or the weather, but Eleanor Sieczkowski and Lillian Sodd are a few of the idle dreamers who hate to get back to the school routine. Do you blame them? 1- -u as Corrine Kalinowski and Florence Matuszewski are certainly taking the Trianon boys by storm. It looks as if two more girlsare deserting Woodwards por- tals. Whats the matter boys?? 4 an 1 At the time of this writing, Arthur Katz was say' ing Ahhhh! when he saw a certain Helen. Have their been any changes made? I K l Some of the girls who smiled to us from across store counters during the holiday season were Dorothy Wolfe, Esther Zak, Thelma Birr, Helen Bunner, and Lois Esxsakzk Sli If you want any news published, kiddies, re- member the old faithful Tattler box in front of 122. . Rousing Resolutions I resolve that in 1942 I will: Improve my slang---which needs it. Clean out my locker and throw away all the precious notes I've been hoarding. Definitely cease window gazing during class periods. Acquire a habit of attending literary lectures. Try very hard to do my homework in the study ha ls. Refrain from talking through my hat about the war situation. Read a good book every week. Understand my lessons for try to anywayl. Interest myself in classical music. Be found dead before I break any of the above resolutions. Wishin' i wish i wuz a little rock a sittin' on a hill doin' nothin' all the day but just a sittin' still i wouldn't sleep i wouldn't even wash i'd just sit still a thousand years and rest myself by-gosh!

Art Of Boxing Tom Tint, authority on boxing, kindly agreed in letting me, a society columnist, to watch a boxing match. I feel that my observation will be of value to aspiring young boxers. First of all, one needs a silken bathrobe with his name embroidered on the back of it. A pair of tights, shoes, and socks complete the entire uni- form. His hands are tapped to prevent chapped hands, no doubt. He entered a padded platform with unique decorations of heavy ropes. Two men bustle him to a chair and put on a pair of gloves which look like footballs. The other person comes in and everyone cheers wildly. The two men shake hands and go to opposite conrers where they put in their dental plate. Stupid of them to have for- gotten them before they left their homes--and such an ill fit. They begin by hitting each other and then the bell rings, They hit each other and the bell rings again. 'Ihis goes on for some time until one gets mad at the other and knocks him out. A mathema- tician then comes up to the outstretched man, counting to ten. The one remaining standing waves to someone at the rear of the huge room and everyone cheers. Rather silly game, isn't it? 1-- 1.,i. Did You Ever See--- a moth ball? a pipe dream? a Ford Truck? a vegetable shop? a radio wave? . a mail box? a horse fly? an ear ring? a bed spring? a sword fish? a post graduate? a lamp smoking? the salad dressing? a hat band? anything cornier than this? Well, did you? Champeen Chumps Ladies and gentleman, we announce the winnahs of the super-colossal show which was given here in the Madison Round Gardens on a certain with- held date. Following are the lucky contestants: Red Aubrey--'champeen carrot buncher. Winnie Buckley--best stamp licker. Herb Watson--fastest skirt-chaser. Janice Bartlebough---famous nut cracker. Louie Kaczmarek--bestest shoe lace tier-upper. Jean Muller--speediest speaker. Bernard and Leonard Burns---most look-alikes. Betty Carlson--most forgetful memory. Bob Harrison- -champeen wit sharpner. F-ollowed the girls around the halls. A-lso practiced throwing spit-balls. I-never bothered to listen in class. L-ittle did I care whether I failed or pass. U-nsats were given to me galore. R-ecitations were such a bore. E-xams of mine were always poor. S-uch a record I'll never endure. THE WOODWARD TATTLER BEARS VICTORIOUS IN ONLY ROAD TILT Irv Wisniewski Big Gun In Bear Offensive With 12 Points Woodward's rejuvinated Polar Bears journeyed to Delphos, Ohio, December 26, and there swapped the eighth game wi n n ing streak of St. John's High School 36-25. The game pitted the offensive speed o' the Bears against the deadly accuracy of St. -lohn's ong shots, and in the end the speed survived. Starting the second half the Bear high-tossers had a comfortable lead. They built this lead all through the third quarter. Then in the final stanza, St. Johns, finding themselves unable to penetrate the solid Woodward defense, took to looping in fielders from beyond the keyhole. Two minutes to play found Woodward a scant two points in front. The Delpos cagers then threw defense to the winds, in thier eagerness to score. This probably cost Delphos what chance they had of winning. A few sharp passes turned in to coax lay-up shots, coupled with one or two charity tosses pulled the Bears hopelessly ahead of the tiring home town five. The Woodward offensive was lead by the lanky center, Irv Wisniewski, with 12 points, and forward Bern Seymour, with 11. Captain Dave Kornowa, back in har- ness for the first time since the Scott game, managed two fielders. Jackson with s x points, Wilson, two, Brent, one, rounded out the scoring. Americans Tie For Second Place In League Standings The local American league bowling team is tie for second place in the league standings having won 17 and lost 4. The National league pin-pickers are the undisputed h old e r s of last place, having wen 5 against 13 defeats so far this season. Last week the Nats. were defeated by the Rainbows 2342 pins to 2181 of the maple sticks. Managhan's 184 was the high game of the day followed by Abdelnour's 176 pins. Individual scoring was as follows: lst 2nd 3rd Total Abdelnour 176 132 164 472 Getz 112 166 147 425 Bonkowski 169 132 123 424 Kreger ..,,.. ...... 1 24 124 Swaya 150 107 ...... 257 Managhan 164 131 184 479 771 668 742 2181 Baby Bears Win Woodward's Baby Bears trounced a heavier, faster Libbey squad Dec. 19, 37-24 in a game which showed that the future varsity has got what it takes. Dimunitive Peanuts Long was the big boy of the tilt as he chalked up 12 markers. BEARETTE FACTS Starting the next semester, dancing will be taken up in all girls' gym class- es. Mrs. Naomi Leonhart will accom- pany them. ll l I Intra-mural teams are finishing the volley ball tournament which is to be followed by basket ball: Blue and white beanies are still being sold in the girls' gym office for fifteen cents. I I C The Girls, Athletic League will meet in the auditorium, Tuesday, January 13, after school. l l Doris Parks, junior, actually bowled 'em over with a bowling score of 184 ast Monday. . WOODWARD BEARS TO BATTLE TIGERS Kornowa Returns To Lineup In Important League Decision Tonight Tonight the Woodward Polar Bears meet the DeVilhiss squad on Tiger hard- wood in a game which may well be a determining factor in the city league st ndings. The Bears hold undisputed posession of second place with two wins and one loss. This gives the North Enders a .666 percentage. A win for Woodward would boost them into a possible tie for top honors, providing, of course, Central and Scott drop tilts. The Irish and Bull- dogs now are on top with three wins and no defeats. However, should DeVilbiss manage a win over Coach Homer Hanhams charges, the Tigers will go into second place and the Bears will drop a place. As it stands, DeVilhiss now is in third spot, having won one and lost one fora .500 percentage. Captain Kornowa will be in harness again and will probably team with Sey- mour at forward while Jackson and Wilson will probably hold the guard spots down. Irve Wisniewski will be a likely candidate for oenter slot. After this scrap comes one on Tues- day night as the Bears meet the Waite Indians on the former's fioor. Waite and Macomber are in the cellar with two losses apiece. The position of the Bears will be decided tonight how- ever. Norma Wildey Paces Co-ed Bowlers With 118 Average Norma Wildey rated highest in bowling scores this week with 118 average. Betty Giha came second with 104.

WOODWARD BEARS SMASH LIBBEY QUINTET IN CLOSE CONTEST, 22-19 if Bears Have Very Difficult 5iZ'N79!ll ' With intra-mural volley ball tourna- ment finished, the boys are now swing- ing into basketball.

All of them came from out-of-town- places to see the game. 'F ll! ll Although the dark shadow of a strike threatened to disrupt the scholastic curriculum, the athletic program was prepared to continue regardless. To- ledo schools received orders to go on with their games as scheduled before- hand. U l I Dave Kornowa, varsity basketball captain, was seen working out with the team preeceeding the Libbey tilt despite a broken arm. We hope you can see act- ion soon again, Dave.

SPORTING EVENTS SPOTLIGHT AS A OF 1941 HOLDS NEW YEAR DAWNS l-l The year 1941 in review-- High School sport seasons come and go, football is no exception. The wind- up was the same as years before in results, but actually Woodward gained for itself the respect it really deserves. There wasn't an outfit in town that didn't worry about and give a great deal of consideration to an approach- ing game with the Polar Bears. The games were hotly contested affairs with final decision coming only late in the game. We can even go so far as to call it a successful year. When success is present there is also presnt a responsible source. We can attribute ours to excellent ability of players, and to skillful handling of limited material. The latter by Jack Taylor and Elmer Vorderburg. A little overshadowed because they were only reserves, but never out played were the boys who trained un- der Watson Welever. They turned in a fine performance before turning in their suits. Basketball soon followed. This season is still quite early but the 4l , part is gone. The reserves opened the sea- son playing th e preliminary game against the Rossford secondary. They Handled the ball like polished profes- sionals. Due uvdoubtly to the handling of Wilson Weis. The varsity copped its first game Loutside competitionj by a m irgin of thirteen points. The ratings n iw show Woodward in third place with two wins and one defeat. Coming 1942---Beginning where we left off basketball. With three more city opponents before starting the round again and knowing the enthusiasm of the squad, hopes for a very successful season may not be dimmed to a great extent. Homer Hanham gets the thanks for this. Our basketball team should again be at the top of the ladder. For football we hold greater hopes than ever before. 1942, be good to us. Time Getting Points Homer Hanham , The Wo :dw ird hird .vood on Friday December 19th, was the scene ofone of the hardest sc iring games the Wood- ward Bears have yet encountered in league competition. Pitted against a tight defense which kept scoring to a minimum, the Bear Quintet won from the Libbey Cowboys in a 22-19 decision. Coach Homer Hanham started Sey- mour at left forward, Wilson at right forward. which was Kornowa's ground before luis irtjury, VVi:enieWski at center, Jackson at right guard and Brent at left guard. Hard playing with defense the main issue closed the first half with Wood- ward having but a two point lead over the South Siders' eight markers. The final half proved faster when Wiz' Wisniewski began to find the range and wound up with the high total of 11 points. This game pushed Woodward up into third place with two wins and one loss and permited Libbey to slip to Hfth place with two losses and one win. Adams Townshippers Bow To Unbeaten Renaissance On December 17, the wind-up game of the intra-mural volley-ball tourna- ment was played. The Renaissance and the Adams Townshippers were contest- ingg the fomer coming out victorious, giving them a perfect slate, seven wins out of seven games played. Bob Brent is the team captain. Second position was occupied by the Polish Lits with only one loss against their 6 victories. The Americans marched out in third place with two defeats in their seven game campaign. Adams Township swiped fourth place with four wins and three losses. Number five position is a contested race with the Auto Mechanics and the Printers with two wins apiece and like- wise five losses. Sixth place also has a tie. The Freshman All Stars and the Machine shop both won one of their seven meets. Hasketball in the intra-mural leagues is to start Monday,January 12, with two games scheduled.

ZIMMERMAN LIKES COLMAN, HAMBURGS Kenny Tells Of Life Long Ambition To Attain Stage Fame Between devouring attacks on a most appetizing looking hamburg, Kenneth Zimmerman, who had the lead in the dramatic classes redent presentation of the Christmas Carol, revealed all to this reporter, who hungrily watched on and recorded the following facts. I Kenny, literally born with a script in his hand, entered the world here in Toledo, March 8, 1923. Practically a life long ambition has been his desire to act, and in this field, and radio produc- tion, he has been quite active here at Woodward. An admirer of Ronald Col- man and Ingrid Bergman, he hopes some day to follow in their footsteps to the stage. To accomplish this end, he has for the past four years been studing at the Repetoire Theater. Another thea- ter to which he is connected, but in a diiiirent capacity, is the Pantheon thea- ter, at which he take s tickets every night. eflnite likes has Mr. Zimmerman, among which are tabogoning, ice skat- ing, and chow imein. Also on that list is a four foot, eight inch little blonde, resembling, quote Mr. Zimmerman, Betty Grable.

The gun goes off for the beginning of a thrilling game and among the throng of spectators is Suzie Q, sitting bewildered and open mouthed. My gracious, yells Suzie, what a perfectly rough game. Well of all things! Did you see that boy grab the ball away from No. 14? And the referee didn't even say a word! After her escort explains to Suzie, she decides that it's time to repair her make-up. After pulling everything from soup to nuts from his pocket fand missing the most ex- citing part of the gamej her escort finally, victoriously, draws forth the precious lipstick. Now why did you put everything back wails Suzie, I need my mirror. Oh dear, my lip- stick rolled down the aisle. Will you please see if you can find it for me? Thank you. Now will you please hold my mirror? No, not up quite so high. Now it's too low. There, now, hold it right there. For hea.ven's sake, don't try to watch the game now. You're moving the mirror. Can you find my comb for me? Well, really. I should think that you'd want me to look my best. I never can understand it. If a girl doesn't look her best blah blah. Why you're not even listening to me. Boo hoo, I'm insulted. What! You Want to go already. Why the game's noteven over. Well! This is the last time I'll ever come to a basketball game with a boy. They never want to stay 'til the end of the game. I just can't understand it. CALL TO ARMS I Bob fCasanovaJ Clucke , Harold tDon Juanl Luce, and Joe Qiochinvanl King, the Three Musketeers of the Class of 1937 are all in the service of their country as enlisted men. Inseparable cam anions during thier high school days, tlie boys are now scat- tered over the face of the earth: Bob, a radio and teletype operator, has been stationed at Howard Feild,Canal Zone, since September, 1940. Harold, a shilp- fitter, is aboard the battleship, Co o- rado, somewhere in the Pacific and was stationed at Pearl Harbor six months last summer. Joe enlisted in the navy in October, 1941, and after extensive training was assigned to his ship. He was home on leave last month. If the boys ever pass through the canal zone Bob hopes to be reunited with them. He called his parents by gzlephone November 2, from Panama it . Abt present he is in the hospital at Baboa with an infected foot. This information was sent to the Tattler Editor by Bob's mother.

Let's Keep The Halls Clean if T sEEMs THAT ws, the students ofWoodward, have always been reprimanded in some way or another about the disorderly condition of our A s. However, this time that is not the case. This e we are to be congratulated on the neat and orderly apgearence of them. The Stu ent Council in the past years has under- took the task of sponsoring a clean-up week about this time of the year. This year, due to its present condition they have indefinitely postponed it until such a time when it is needed. So, let's keep up the good work, and make our halls the pride of Woodward. Save sponsoring a clean-up campaign. Let's go, Woodward! Avoid Last Minute Cramming IS YEAR. it is compulsory that every student in the school take semester exams. So again we must prepare ourselves to do the best we can. For two years we have not taken official exams. This means that we must et back in the harness gain with the idea of making a success of these sts. Let us all avoid night-before cramming of which we are usually guilty. To get the best results we should begin studying now. So let's go into these examinations wholeheartedly and prove to our- selves that we can really do it. An Example To Follow NOBLE AND PATRIOTIC GESTURE was Bgrformed by the Polish Literary Society. To lp defend America, they purchased a United States Defense bond. This gesture is one which can be done by more clubs. We can find no better in- vestment than the U. S. government. The protection of citizens and country is a most vital point to making and keeping what we all have made, to safeguarding the ideals. customs, and fun loving natureg those things which make A me r i c a, AMERICA. Our friends, closest chums, and acquaintances are gone. They have answered the call which takes them away from theirloved ones. Some shall never return. These boys need help as well. Let's do the best we can to help our count1y's bravest lads. Remember kids-help them and we help ourselves. Stop That Rumor! TOP .that rumor! In school today you heard gossip about either a friend or an enem ! on't repeat it. Two or three thoughtlessly spoken words will injure the best reputation for a lifetime. An inferiority complex plus unhappiness resulting In delinquency may be the iinish of a goss1p's patter. Suppose what you heard were true. Is it in your place to enlarge on it and then pass it on to other gfople? You don't know the whole story and if you d you would probably realize it would be better not to say anything. The petty emotions of jealousy and anger are the basis of almost every slam. After all the harm nas been done you're sorry you said it, but in Will Carlton's words: B:y's iiying kites, P lin their white wing birds, But you can't do that when your iiying words. Thoughts unex ressed May often fall Track dead, But God, Himself can't kill Them when their said. PRINCIPAL POINTS I I Neighborly Notes i .r Since returning from our Christmas , M A- vacation many earnest students have been asking their parents and teachers 1 T i , What can I do to help our country now ff that we are at war? ' L ' , There are many things that should be if 5 done. However, they will not be romantic or heroic and perhaps will not catch your interest at all. Nevertheless they are of vital impor- tance, and should be done if we really want to do our part. Following are a few things students can do. These are not necessarily in the order of their importance except the iirst one. First: Since our public schools are called our first line of defense in times of peace, they certainly must be cons dered as a vital defense force in time of war. This means that our first business as stu- dents is to become increasingly earnest about con tinuing our education just as long as we can re-- main in school. Second: We can contribute money or work or both to the Red Cross. Third: We can buy defense stamps and bonds. These will not only aid our country but will pro- vide fine lessons in thrift. They are, too the best possible type of safe investment. Fourth: We can learn all we can about fire pre- vention in case of air raids. Fifth: We can become proficient in first aid. All these things are ve ry commonplace but they are very important. Think them over if you want to do something in this war emergency.

Cronin In this, his greatest novel, Dr. Cronin presents a vital human theme through the life story of a simple man who will be loved and remembered as long as the printed page is read. The Keys of the Kingdom will hold readers because of the story, rich in the dramatic scenes for which Dr. Cronin is famousg and still more because of its chief char- acter, Francis Chisholm, Scots priest, a curious mix- ture oi childlike simplicity and logical directness, who believed that tolerance was the highest vir- tue and that humility came next. By conventional standards a failure as a curate, he was given a vicariate in China, and there for thirty-five years, a thousand miles from Tienstin, he labored to es- tablish and maintain a mission in a Chinese village. There he stuggled against indifference, famine, plague, bandits and civil war. There he searched for the eternal truths. Many other people throng the nwel--his relatives, the girl he loved as a boy, the nuns who came to help at his mission, priests and doctors, Chinese merchants peasants, and ofiicers. Father Francis, in this newest novel written by Dr. Cronin, labored to make life more worth living and his story, his ability to see beyond creeds and orthodoxy, his love of decency and justice, will stir readers deeply.

THE WOODWARD TA'1'I'LER BEARS ENTERTAIN CENTRAL TONIGHT I. Wisniewski and A. Hasmeyer Probably To Have Scoring Duel Tonight the Woodward Polar Bears, under Coach Homer Hanham, will entertain the league-leading Central Irish in the Woodward gym. This fray, the most crucial yet to develop in the red hot city loop, will decide whether the quick shot experts of Jim McCarthy can maintain their supremacy, or if the oncoming Bears can replace them at the top of the rung. With the Waite game safely under their belts, the Blue and Whites will unravel their entire bag of tricks in a supreme effort to stem the hereto- fore unequaled Irish onslaught. Coach Hanham, recognizing from the first that Central was the foe to contend with, has been priming his charges for tonight's tilt, and pre- dicts, lt will be a pretty tough pull. Both squads will he at full strength. Captain Dave Kornowa and Bern Sey- mour will answer the opening whistle at forwards with Danny Jackson and Jack Wilson filling the guard posts. Irv Wisniewski will handle the pivot s ot. pThe Central lineup is never a cer- tainty but the probable five will con- sist of McQuillen and Hickey at for- wards, Dahn and Gilhooey at guards, and big Al I-Iasmeyer at center. An individual scoring battle is ex- pected between the rival centers as both are excellent tip-shot artists. Bowlerette Norma Wildeay Still Holds Highest Average Monday was the last day for the bowlerettes this semester. It found Norma Wildeay still in top spot with a 119 average. Four other girls managed to keep their averages above one hundred. They are Betty Giha with 1045 Helen Bunner, 1013 Doris Parks, 1015 and Frances Ols- zewski with an even 100.

Having won three and lost one in leagiue play the first stringers have the onor of holding second place in the City League standings. ictories over two out of town teams makes their record show won five and lost one. A review of the scores show that three of the six games played by the varsity were very close: Woodward 29 Rossford 16 Woodward 30 Scott 31 Woodward 30 Macomber 29 Woodward 22 Libbey 19 Woodward 36 Delphos 25 Woodward 31 DeVilbiss 24 l TAKING DE VILBISS Woodward Takes Second Place As Kornowa Leads Field The Woodward Polar Bears moved into second place as a result of their 31 to 24 win over the DeVilbiss Tigers last Friday in the Upton Avenue layout. Paced by Captain Kornowa the Woodward squad never was behind. Korn dumped in 8 fielders and a charity toss for '17 markers. Woodward drew first blood when Kornowa went in for a coax-up shot and two points. The game was close all the way, the Bears leading 5-4 at the quarter, 17-14 at the half and 31-24 at the final gun. Wohlstadler of DeVilbiss led the Tigers with four fielders and three fouls for 11 points.

Zientik's 195 pins in the first game aided by Wysocki's 162, enabled the Bears to garner 753 pins to the Scotters 682. Paced by Aubry, Zychowicz, Wy- socki and Zientek, they managed 824 pins to the Collingwood boys' 678 for their second win. Ralph Zychowicz's 203 in the third game helped the Woodwardites to sweep the series as they downed Scott 864 to 631 in the final. Scott's high game for the day was roled by Dashner as he managed a 182. Individual scoring was as follows: Total Wysocki ....i....... 475 Aubry .....,.......... Wisniewskil ......

In the first half, the Reserves played conservative basketball gradually get- ting the range of the DeVilbiss baskets, and leading 18-8 at the half. Then after the intermission DeVil- biss, obviously a second half team, really gunned the throttle, fought the Cubs point for point, and closed the third chapter 27-27. The Hnal quarter was a test of endur- ance and the well conditioned Wood- ward Five coasted to victory. Bob Long, high scoring forward who sustained minor head injuries in col- lision with the towering DeVilbiss center, helped himself to 15 points for the Bear cause. Johnny Payak, lanky guard contrib- uted 12 points, and Bob Dupont, with six Dick Seymour with four, Knierim two, and Miller with 1 also helped in t e Reserve win. .-....

HBEARS MOVE UP BY 'WOODWARDITES DEFEAT INDIANS IN CLOSE GAME BY 38-35 SCORE 'Polar Bears Led, 22-20, At SEYMOUR BOYS ARE TERRIFIC TOSSERS Seymour stars as Woodward fresh men defeat DeVilbiss. Seymour stars as Woodward light weights defeat DeVilbiss. Seymour stars as Woodward varsity defeats DeVilbiss. From the looks of these three head- lines one would imagine that Mr. Sey- mour is a very busy lad. However, closer observation would reveal that Mr. Seymour is notone, but three. Ranging from Bernard, senior forward, through Dick, reserve forward, down to Paul, freshman forward. the family of Seymours are upholding the Blue and White's court campaign. Bern, the varsity shot expert began his net career as a freshman as did Dick and now Paul. Heredity would seem to be the only logical answer, but while the explana- tion is in doubt, the basketball ability is definitely not, as is proven every time the bears take the court. l BEARETTE FACTS The sophomore and junior girls are practicing foul shooting in anticipation of the basketball season.

Frush Squad Blanks Kittens From DeVilbiss, 27-17 Spotting both height and weight to a De Vilbiss Frosh squad Woodward's recruits rolled to a 27-17 conquest Fri- day on the Bear's home floor. Both teams started slowly, gradually slipping their respective machines into high-gear. The little Bears sported a six point lead at the end of the first quarter, but trailed 9-8 at half time. In the second half the Bears began to find the hoop regularly and slowly gulled away from the Tiger kittens.The ear Frosh also strengthened their de- fense and in the final quarter held De- Vilbiss to three points. Sunny Lentz, Bob QBelieve It Or Notl Harrison and Dick Kellmar with six points each led the Bear attack. Seymour three points, Windhovel, Nelson, and Vertlebeck with two com- pleted the scoring. EMBIWIJ - -, .uv ,- Woodwood has a crack at the pen- nant. That's the word that's been go- ing round since the Bears moved into number 2 spot by taking a 31-34 deci- sion from the De Vilbiss Tigers. 1 1 1 Dave Kornowa looked even better aft- er his broken wrist as he made 17 points in the Tiger-Bear fray. Here's to bigger and better breaks. K I I A plea to save the floor was issued by Art Smith and Homer Hanham. There are all together too many boys in street shoes on the door. stated Mr. Smith.

The Half Time In ' Hot Contest ...M The varsity five representing Wood- ward against Waite High School in the boys' gym Tuesday night handed the East Siders their fourth defeat of the current season, dropping them 38 to 35 in one of the hottest games of the year. Led by forward Dave Kornowa, with eleven points garnered from four goals and three foulsg Irv Wisniewski, center, scored ten points by sinking three goals and four sucker shots. Seymore and Wilson scored six points eachg Jackson, chalked up four points: and Brent managed to sink a charity toss for one point. Waite's Indians were paced by Flash Flegle, who was also the high man for the evening dropping in two free throws and six field goals for a. fourteen point total. A close game from the start, the contest was tied up three 'times before the half way mark. The Polar Bears were leading at the midpoint 22 to 20. Long shots from far points on the hardwood became very popular dur- ing the second period when the teams tightened their defense. Danny Jackson, Woodwardite sub- stitution, broke the monotany in the last few minutes of play when he sank two field goals, good for four points and. a lead for the Woodward squad during the tense moments of the colored affair. The win over the Waite squad finds the Streicher Street boys in second place a half game behind the league leading Central squad which has been scheduled for tonights fracas. The Bears have won four and lost one while the Centralites have a perfect record of four wins. The standings to date are: W. L.

The first bout pitched the Adams Township team on the same hardwood as the Americans. The Americans strolled off with a decisive 38-3 victory. Battling in the last game of Monday afternoon was the Auto Mechanics and the Frosh All Stars. This game was also one-sided, with the score nearly the same as the preceeding tilt. The fresh- man All Stars trounced the grease mon- keys 38-4. . Reserves Up To Date Looking over the reserve squad score book finds the Woodwardites lightweight team also on the lead- ing end of points scored and games won and lost. The Polar Bear Junior five have scored a total of 161 points- to the 131 marks sunk in by their opponents. Woodward's re s e rve boys have won three out of five starts, having lost to Scott and Macomber.

It is my opinion that there is not enough discussion in our classes. Why wouldn't it be possible to start a club at which there is inteleient debate of such af- fairs? Some istory teacher, who would be willing to give up her time my idea to have more of a discussion. In class there is a tendency to agree with the teacher because she is the teacher. In this club we could have some friendly agruments about things we disagree on. Isn't it possible to have such a club.

BY MAGAZINE DRIVE Christmas Play, Open House, And Gayety Nite Among Big Events of 1941 Older people tell us that someday we shall recall our school days with gladness and hum Thanks for the Memories. Even though we haven't yet reached the stage of a rocker by the fireside, knit one, purl two, it nevertheless seems appropriate to usher 1942 in by reminiscing a mo- ment and recalling events in which we have participated. The one BIG affair of 1941 was the Magazine Drive. Not only did this treat us to a rodeo and show what expert salesmen Woodward High is producing fwe broke a national rec- ord, didn't we?J, but it also gave us the parade and picnic in celebration. And we still haven't heard the last of it-- the new band uniforms are to be worn at the concert on Wednesday, January 28. These, together with the Christmas play, which has definitely niched a place for itself in Wood- ward's almanac of annual affairs, were comparative newcomers. Old standbys are the activities ticket sales with A. J. Brown rushing about: the Saga campaign with Raymond She- line doing the same: Open-House, when teachers are busy tying a string around a wayward pupil's finger and when Principal LaRue is busy invit- ing all unwelcome onlookers to stay away from my door g the Welfare Card Party, which provides fun in shuffling cards: the Shekle Shuffle, which shuffles feet, and- last but cer- tainly not least, Gayety Nite, the carnival of the year when Wood- ward's halls resemble the Mardi Gras tied with an extra red ribbon. We've done all right by the mem- ories, now what about that crystal ball? The Sophrolic, when all good little sophomores beam and dance, looms up out of the fog on ? ? ? 'I Juniors with J-Hop jitters are re- minded that a big red Valentine marks the spot on February 14. And seniors! Your prom, banquet, and commence- ment are all events yet to come. .

Besides appearing with the chorus here, Eddee has made public ap- pearances as a member of the Toledo Choral Society when she sang in the Messiah, recently presented at the Art Museum. She has sung the solo part in Ave Maria, by Schubert at the Kiwanis Club, over W.S.P.D., at an assembly period concert here, and she will sing that part at the com- bined Band-Orchestra-Glee Club Con- cert Wednesday, January 28. She has been playing the piano for seven years and has the hope of going to Oberlin College where she would like to study voice. Orchestra President The president of the orchestra is red-haired, blue-eyed, senior, Ruby Landrie. Ruby, who is an admirer of H. Leopold Spitalny, has played the violin in the orchestra for four years and confesses that she loves to play swing tunes on that instrument. She was rather hesitant about revealing her attachment to modern swing, for fear that Miss Bessie Werum might not approve. Ruby says that she didn't take any lessons on the violin but insists that she just picked it up. When asked whether she intended making music her career, Ruby answered that she was uncertain. As for the Woodward orchestra, she says, It's pretty small, but all the members are really good players. Band President A man and his horn! That is the best phrase that can possibly describe trumpet playing Iver Petersen. As- sociated with the band by holding the title of student leader, he also holds another position in the same organi- zation and of equal important-that of president. Upon further inquiry into his other musical interests, he very modestly replied that he plays in the Adams Township Fire Depart- ment band and in a swing band called the Stardusters. Oddly enough, he said his favorite tune was the band's theme song Stardust Iver enjoys classical music and thinks Hungarian Rhapsody No. 5 is super. As to the band's preparation for the combined concert with the Glee Club and Orechestra, he smiled very confidently and said We're ready. Payak Stars As Reserves Grab Game From Papooses Pacing a fast break attack with 16 points Johnny Payak led the Wood- ward Reserves to a 37-23victory over the Waite Reserves Tuesday on Central Avenue Floor. Grabbing an early lead, and then easily holding it the Cubs were never in danger. Half time found them leading 21-9. Bob Long, Hasy foreward banged home nine markers before going out on fouls. Ted Miller with five, Dick Seymour, four and Eaton and DuPont, two each completed the total in the Cubs third straight win.

Before we start we remind you that the opinions ex- pressed herein are not necessarily those of the Tattler. What fools these mortals be. To me, this quotation has come up in my up to the minute mind. Why, when fingers were given to us by the grace of providence, should we take the time to lift forks and cut with knives and then change hands, and finally, after much unnecessary waste of en- ergy lso valuable now because of National Defensej we get the food in our mouths? Now I think the students of Wood- ward are broadminded enough to do away with all this foolishness. Let us conserve soap, water, and labor, and do away with knives and forks. We'll revolutionize the country. Com- rades, we must strive together to abolish this. If you are in sympathy with this cause, write to this station and ask for further particulars. This is Throckmorton J. Horsecollar Smith signing off. And don't forget, friends, ask your Grocer, the next time you see him, for Shine-Em Up Cleaner. 'Bye now!

The members of the band had come back to have their new uni- forms fitted. Each precious uniform was tried on, fitted, and handled as if it were gold. The appreciation and pride shown by the band for their new uniforms was unbounded. As each article came forth, everyone became happier. First, came the uniform itself 3 then, the snappy hatsg then, oh, delights of de- lights, the white pom poms, and next, the white service cord for the sleeves. After each article was tried on, it was duly admired in a much used mirror for several minutes. Finally, when everyone was assem- bled, the band performed a grand march through the empty halls of Woodward, ending with a procession through the office so that all of the teachers who were recording grades could admire them. A great round of applause went up as the parade ended. Thus Woodward's band received the long awaited and much needed uni- forms. They appeared resplendent at the concert Wednesday night. C. C.

This year, as never before, the Red Cross drive is not only asking you to give generous- ly, but dig down and give till it hurts. Floods, fires, earthquakes have all been cheated of fatalilities because ol the merciful and quick work of the Red Cross. All these catastrophes have at recent date been minimized by just one major combination of all catastrophes, War. The American Red Cross forsees that its work is to be continued on even a larger scale because of this turn in world events. To continue its work, an annual call for funds has been sent out. More than ever before help is needed. Give, give until it hurts, hurts your fun, your coke after school, hurts the luxuries you're accustomed to. It's a wonderfull cause---do your bit by giving---giving until it hurts. , Student Duty To War Effort HE GODS OF war artin triumph over a bloody world. Men die and nations rock. Cannons roar and bullets fly. The war is on and America is a part of it. We, the students of Woodward, are a part of it, too. Those men fighting out there are fighting to preserve Americas freedom-to assure Americais future. They are fighting for us, for we are Americans tomorrow's citizens. Before much more time will elapse, we will be America's lead e r s, fighters, laborers, doctors, lawyers- We will be America! Therefore, let us dig in and help!Some of us may question, What could I do? Well, there are many ways to help. It is possible to join the Red Cross Civilian Defense, and the U. S. O. which have done and will continue to do very good work helping de- fend our nation. Those men who are lighting over there are willing to sacrifice there lives so that we may live. Why can't we sacrifice a little time so that they may not have to die! Then, of course, there s money. Money is the root of all evil, it's true, but it may be used to root out evil, too. Let's sink alot of money in defense stamps and bonds. In that way we can help sink some Jap ship as well. Appreciate Good Novels HAT HAS Superman comics got that our library hasn't got? We have books of come- dy, drama, mystery, and tragedy, fiction, nonefiction, biographys, auto-biographys, reference books and best sellers. What more would you want? If you read Pulp magazines when you are young and your mind is orming,you will,without a doubt, read the same thing when you're ninety. Don't let this happen to you. Read those books gathering dust on the library shelves. Learn to ap- preciate real story. Discard those trashy novels and ten-cent comic books, and when you begin to climb the ladder of success you'1l discover that the big men in the big oliices in the big buildings don't read Superman Comics.

Air Raid Precautions The following suggestions should never be forgot- ten in case of an air raid. Place this item in a con- spicuous place and go over it thoroughly several times a day. 1. When the air raid siren rings, run like the dickens to the nearest shelter. Don't let old ladies or anything get in your way. 2. Become frantic and scream and holler as much as possible. These always scares the life out oflittle kids, which just adds to your fun. 3. Don't follow the instructions of any oflicers. They're probably as scared as you are and don't know what they're talking about. 4. If you are to go to a crowded air raid shelter be sure to eat garlic and onions etc. before leaving your home. Then see if people won't make plenty of room for you. 5. Don't pay any attention to any demands for a blackout. How in the world could an air plane way up in the sky see one little light?

On The Book Shelf They Went On Together---R ibert Nathan Knopf Publishing House. For a truly tender novel of childhood romance, one should not miss reading They Went on To- gether. The plot is concerned with the happenings of mother and her two children who have had to evacuate their home because the enemy is selling their town. Many of the problems of life such as starvation, fear, and cold present themselves to the family. But their courage exemplifies them as a group who can take it. Especially good is the tender romance between the young boy, Paul and the girl evacuee they take with them. The book will leave you with a feeling that it was well worth reading. ' THE WOODWARD TATTLER HANI-IAM'S CAGERS DOWN WHITEHOUSE Wisniewski, Kornowa, Pace Scoring, Each Having 16 Points Coach Homer Hanham led his Wood- ward Polar Bears back into winning ways Saturday night with a 56-18 win over Whitehouse High on the latter's floor. The Bears, current holders of second place in the city league, gave the rur il ads a complete lesson in sharpshoot- ing. With Kornowa and Wisniewski hit- ting early in the game, the Bears built a commendable lead and were never overtaken. Whitehouse fought gamely through- out the first quarter, and trailed 11-6 go- inq into the second canto. From then on the Woodward superiority began to show, and they lend 28-9 at the half. In the remaining half, Coach Hanham, eager to give his entire squad a work- out, rushed replacements into the gam e. Captain Dave Kornowa, who left the game in the fourth quarter d ie to por- sonal fouls, and Irv. Wisniewski, lanky center, paced the scoring with sixteen points apiece. Although this alone was enough to win, others contributing to the score were: Golembiewski with se- ven, Jagodzineki. Sheline and Brent with three, Wilson with two, and Sey- mour with five. Bears To Meet Sylvania Saturday night the Woodward Polar Bears meet the basketball squad from Burnham in a preliminary to the T.U.- West-minister game at the University's field house in a nonleague game. The 7:15 whistle will probably find Kornowa and Seymour at forwards, Jackson and Wilson at guards, and Irv Wisniewski in the pivot slot. Woodwards last encounter with the Sylvania bunch was last year. Despite the Sylvanians advantage of the home floor the Bears won in a double over- time tilt. ' in---5 lf- f - - , , .,..ii:...' ' . Not only was the Woodward gym over-crowded with 1829 people exclusive of pass-holders at the Central game, but a considerable number of people were turned away because there were no seats, A. J. Brown reported. ll li ll' Art Smith, boys' gym instructer here wasa referee at the Scott-Waite battle 'll 'F Ill Central was the second team out of six met by the Bears to triumph over our quintet. It so happens that our two losses, the other one being to Scott were games where our boys w ere pitched against a zone defense. I 1 l The light-weight team, although trained most in man to man defense, lost to a counter man to man set-up. When the cubs changed to a zone de- fense in which they are not so well trained, they always jumped out in the lead.

IRISH FIVE SMASH BEARS LEAD HOPES Maximum Crowd Saw Bears Hopes For Leadership Fade In 43-34 Tilt Woodward's hopes for leading the city league at its halfway marker were smashed by a quintet of representa- tives from Central High, who dubbed them 43-34, on the Bears' own hardwood Friday, January 16. Playing to a record crowd which filled the gym to maximum capacity, Bern Seymour opened the scoring with a foul shot which gave the Bears the only lead they held through the entire glllnr-M The first period was fast passing good defensive play and all around pro fessional looking all the way. The quar ter ended 14-9,with Central in the lead Kornowa and Seymour found the best means to break the Irish rock-hard defense were long shots and began to dump them in from outside the defense until the gun ended the half, 22-17. In the second half Central proceeded to demonstrate its reason for not losing a game by setting up an unpenetrable zone defense. Homer Hanham's boys showed what made and still makes them the best contenders for the league lead by fast passing and a good per- centage of shots made. Throughout the last half it was a close score made possible by Wiz Wisniewski's work under the back- board. The Central team then turned things over to Gilhooley who clinched the lead in a six minute scoring spree. Dave Kornowa kept his high point title with 12 markers to his credit. Bern Seymour followed with 11 points. Spider Brent, Bear Cager, Apes Copeland In Cage Tilts The flashy foward that you see piling up points isn't Bill Copeland ex-Bear luminary, it's Bob Brent who looks and plays very much like him. A star in his own right is Brother Brent or as he is m ore commonly known--Spider. Six letters already gar- nish Bob's walls and three more will be added at the end of the year. Not only does Spider hold down the hard- wood but plays football, is on the track team and runs on the cross country squad. There is nothing about Bob to indi- cate that women are on his mind. How- ever a certain Ernestine takes up most of his spare time. Spider lists typing as A-1 in subjects and Mr. Pollock as his favorite teacher. When asked adout the Bear team Bob simply stated, We're after the championship.

RESERVES DEFEAT CENTRAL FIVE, 51-21 Bear Cubs Swamp Central Squad All The Wayg Seymour Tops A highly touted Central Reserve squad became the fourth consecutive foe to fall before the Woodward reserves when they bowed 51-21 Friday January 16 in the North End gym. Th - Central lads were never really in the c mtest trailing 27 12 at the half. Th -Cubs presented a fast sharpshoot- ing quintet led by Dick Seymour, who in the course of the evening banged home eight fieli goals and two free throws for 18 points. The relative s t re ng t h of the re- spective squads was evident from the opening whistle, when Johnny Payak slipped through the Irish zone to score a quick fielder and add afoul. TheriTed Miller stood beyond the zone and hit two long shots to give the Cubs a seven point lead. From then on it was a case of pass, shoot and steal the ball as the Irish got a lesson in offensive and defensive tactics. Acting captain Bob Long followed Seymour in scoring with ten markers, Bob DuPont contributed eight, Miller and Payak, each fiveg Jack Eaton, fourg and ilim Knierim, two, to complete the tota . Freshman Squad In Three Way Clinch For Top Honors The fr e s h m a n cagers of Watson Welever dropped into a three way tie for first place by absorbing a 33-27 defeat at the hands of Central January 16 in the Cherry Street gym. Woodward got off to a flying start with Harrison and Seymour pacing the attack and lead 13-9 at halftime. In the second half the little Irish opened up and gradually slipped into the lead over a stubbornly fighting Woodward quintet. Center Bob Harrison was the How- itzer in the Wo o dw ard attack as he collected ten points. Paul Seymour fol- lowed with seven. Bulldog Bowlers Beat Bears Out Of Champion hip Race The American league bowlers were defeated by the Scott Bulldogs, three games out of three, for the champion- ship of the league, Saturday, January 17. A 237 was rolled by John Schafer, Scotterg with Zychowicz 210 and Wis- niewski 209, the Bears also broke the two hundreds. Bob France, also of Scott rolled a 203. Following their big brother, the America ns, the Nationals were dropped by the Irish from Central. Managhan and Swaya were high men with 181 pins each. Bonkowski rolled a 172 and Levee 165. The Nats have won six against their 16 defeats.

After the fiying foot cases have efec- tively silenced Mr. Seymour, the suH'er- ing victors are treated to a duet by Dave Kornowa and Jack Wilson, nei- ther of whom will replace Caruso. Then at mealtime Syl Golembiewski and Dave Kornowa play cards through the first three courses and Dick Sheline eats everybody's salad. Danny Jackson is busily asking for things not on the menu while Irv Wis- niewski orders coffee to Coach Han- ham's surpr.ze. Ed Sloan and Curt Ransome play hot records while Bob Brent tries to hit the jackpot in a gum machine. By this time Dave and Syl are accusing each other of hidden aces, and Dick Sheline has finished his fourth salad. Ray Jagodzinski, who never tries when he takes a shower, has by this time warmed up and is amazing Wilson Weis with his knowledge of intricate culinary achievements. After which, a faculty member dick- ers with the waitress over the price, and everyone yells for more pie. P. S. They don't get it. BEARS MEET SCOTT IN REVENGE BATTLE Teams To Fight For Second Placeg Facts Favor Woodward The Scott Bulldogs will invade the Woodward gym to encounter five mem- bers of the Blue and White team to- night at eight. The game may prove to be a furious affair since the second place under Central is the victor's prize. Last time the two teams tangled, it was on Scott's hardwood, and the Bull- dogs squeezed over to victory with a one-point m a rg i n. Homer Hanham's boys were faced with a zone defense when they met the Collingwood Avenue five, and they lost. The next loss, which was to the Irish, found the Bears fighting another zone defense. Scott lost to the DeVilbiss Tigers, which our North enders humbledg they bowed to the East-siders of Waite, over- which the Woodward five triumphed, and the Bulldogs found themselves in a similar position under Central Irish, the latter of whom topped Hanham's men. These facts seem to point to a vict orious Woodward for tonight, pro viding Coach Hanham has dreamt up a counter move to take care of Scotts so far successful zone defense. However, with the game on our home hardwood, it automatically gives our cagers an edge. After what Woodward did to White- house's tight zone defense, Woodward seems to have a counter action per- fected. All in all, it seems very proba- ble that the Bears will hand Scott the latter's fourth city loss. Woodward Reserves Beat Whitehouse Quintet 34-18 Paced by Bob Long and Ted Miller the Woodward Reserves rode to an easy 34-18 victory over the Whitehouse quintet. The Cubs lead 12-4 at the quarter work and were never really in trouble as they annexed their fourth straight win. Ted Miller broke the ice early in the opening stanza by looping in a lon shot. Knierim, Payak and Long followed out to give the Cubs a flying start. The entire squad saw action and sev- eral players contributed points to the scoring barrage. Bob Long with 11 points and Ted Mil- ler with seven were the scoringleaders. Johnny Payak and Jim Knierim hit six and five points respectively, while Dick Seymour and Harold Managhan dropped in a fielders apeice and Jack Eaton contributed a free throw to round out the total. Bob Heft lead the Whitehouse aggre- gation with six points. Bearette Facts Mental orchids to the G. A.

Two of the classes have already been held but two more have been scheduled for next week. These classes take place during the assembly periods on Wednesday and Thursday, February 11 and 12. The gym teachers, Mrs. Lois Draves and Miss Catherine McClure, and Mrs. Dorothy Matheny are aiding in this effort to teach the students to dance. Essay Results Marlyn Schoonmaker, senior, and Charles Myneder, junior, were the two pupils selected by a majority vote as Woodwnrd's representatives for the Town Hall of the Air Con- test.

Refreshments for the meeting will be served in the tea room. All schools will be represented. TALE OF WOODWARD ELLA PROVES TO BE FAKE, BUT HAS GOOD MORAL Once upon a time there lived a girl named Woodward Ella. Although she was very pretty, February 14 found her sitting at home Uknittin' for Bri- tain, instead of at the J-Hop. The story book said her cruel sisters made her stay home, but actual facts prove that it was because not one of the bashful Woodward males had asked her to go. When her Fairy Godmother arrived at the scene she didn't send Woodward Ella to the prom. Instead she told her that it was her own fault, because she hadn't given a boy any encouragement or made any prep- arations for the affaiir. On the other hand her sisters, who Went to the J -Hop, didn't have a good time. Their one complaint was the fact that no one exchanged dances. Thus the dance had been a very for- mal formal rather than fun fun. As for the glass slipper, it wasn't glass at all but proved to be an ordi- nary slipper. It had been taken off and left behind by a girl who had a date who hadn't attended any of the dancing classes. And so the story ended very unhappily. Moral-Fellows, ask your girl today and girls, start to get ready now. Both of you attend dancing classes and while at the prom be sure and exchange dances. Finally, prove that the foregoing fairy-tale is untrue by putting the moral into practice. To Keep Cafeteria Spotless To enable Woodward to find some method of improvement for its lunch periods, one Tattler representative and three Student Council members accompanied by Mrs. Marie Ersig, visited Waxite High School Tuesday, February 3, during its lunch hours. Marilyn Schoonmaker, editor, repre- sented the Tattler while Robert Kubicki, Lois Schoonmaker, and Lois Roth represented the Student Council. Since it was felt that interesting ideas might be obtained from all the Toledo high schools, the plan will be repeated weekly. Two members from the Tattler and two representatives from the Student Council, along with an advisor, will visit one high school each week. Waite employed a rather unique plan. The lunch period is conducted during fourth hour, which is one hour in length. At every fifteen minute intervals one-fourth of the student body goes to lunch. All eating must be done in the cafeteria. As soon as a student is finished, he goes immedi- ately to his fourth hour class. In this way, the entire student body is accommodated in Waite's rather small cafeteria. There is teacher supervision in the cafeteria and the halls. This method eliminates a great amount of noise and confusion. Both faculty and students were questioned upon the popularity of the plan. Most students like the plan in preference to the system used last year, whereby one-half of the student body ate at one time. On a whole, the teachers of Waite dislike the plan in that the lunch period is only fifteen minutes long. They also admitted that despite this, the cleanliness of the building is much greater. Woodward's representatives noticed less noise and confusion than is at Woodward. They also observed the cooperation on the part of the stu- dents in carrying their trays to the food carts, putting milk bottles in crates, and depositing paper in the containers. Ring Sales Excel 1941 Start: Choice Of Rings May Be Had The junior ring sales started off Tuesday, January 27. The total sale for the first order nearly doubled that of 11555 year, 5581.30 for 1942 and S362 for This large sale is primarily due to the fact that the juniors can obtain their choice of two rings and any stone or set they prefer in the ring, The vote for rings was so close the committee decided to please everybody by giving them their choice.This is the first time this plan has ever been tried in Woodward. The rings of the Hrst order will arrive in about six weeks. - Government Man To Speak Mrs. Eula H. Upp received a letter from J. C. Hoover, head of Investiga- tion, in reply to a request to have a speaker from this bureau speak to the juniors and seniors on March 12 during the B schedule. He refered her to L. W. Boardman, special agent in charge at Cleveland, Ohio, who, if at all possi- ble, will make available a speaker at that time.

They have been given out with the understanding that they will receive the very best of care. L. C. Clark, who has been placed in charge of uniforms, expects every band member to do his best keeping his suit immaculate. It is only right that these uniforms should be kelpt as clean as possible. Band members should ta e into consideration the fact that those uniforms are theirs only temporarily and will be used time and again by future members of the Woodward band. This fact should prompt them all to be very careful of the suits and keep them free of dirt. Band members, remember you've been given a trust. You are responsible for those uniforms! Keep their' appearance top-rate! Keep those uniforms d ean. Attend Class Dance HIS year, as before, the sophomores, juniorsn and seniors, will each have a class dance- .These dances are carefully planned by ener- getic committees who spent much time in prepar- ing an enjoyable evening. Every year the same type of students are found present at these aifairsethose students who take pride and are active in school activities. But where are the others-those who sit back and complain about how boring school is? The girl will insist that she isn't going because no one as asked her. Perhaps if she gave a boy en- couragement and began preparing for the dance she might be asked. On the other hand a fellow will say he doesn't have any idea who to take, but the previous statements settle that. Go to your class dance. Make it successful, prove yourself a worthy Woodward pupil, and your efforts will be duely rewarded in the pleasure derived from attending. Take Defense Precaution Seriously OW that the preliminary sparing is definitely past, and the main event is underway, Uncle Sam has rolled up his sleeves and pitched in with that whole-hearted spirit that has always marked Americans. We, you and I, and our families must get behind our Soldiers. We must not let the enemy catch us unpretpared. The fact that we are an inland city shoul not dull our caution. The- war has just begun. Perhaps air-raids and bombings are yet in store for the American people. What would you do if an alarm was sounded? Hysteria is apt to run high in people not accustomed to the horrors of modern warfare as even the British can testify. Is America going to be caught half asleep? Is the Toledo Civilian Defense Program, a wonderful organization in itself, going to wither and die for fresh enrollment? You have been given letters ask- ing your parents to become our civilian soldiers, actually our reserves. One can even compare them to the famous minute men of Concord. Has the spiritlthat opened the west utterly perished, or will America once again prove the strength of democra- cy. Again I am writing on what you -X young people and older ones too, can , ' lo to aid our country in war. One of 3 the worst phases of a war such as we l are in now is caused by the false ru- ,.'VV,,. mors circulated innocently or mali- ciously by the people. ii' We have always been warned not to repeat gossip or idle rumor when we have no more authority for our statements than the ever recurring They say. No one ever knows who They are. As members of a school we know how easy it is to adversly criticise things that are done. In our football for instance, the fellow in the stands or the hanger-on at the corner drug store always knows the proper method of handling the team or of calling and running the plays. These fellows know nothing of the circumstances surrounding the play, but that means nothing to them. All this of course is just innocent talk and does no partic- ular harm. In fact, the Drug store quarterback usually makes himself ridiculous with his after the play wisdom. However, in the matter of our national welfare criticism is not always so harmless. Whispers about what happened at Pearl Harbor, the whereabouts of our Pacific Fleet, why expeditionary forces, why we don't hear of the destruction of submarines, etc., are to timid souls that are not wholeheartedly in the war, just plain morale breakers. Then there are the vicious whispers of shortages of this and that commodity and you'd better lay in a supply of so and so before it is gone or the prices go up. We can help definitely by, first of all, refusing to repeat any unauthentic statements that in any slight degree might aid in breaking down the civilian morale. Second, we should trust fully our leaders in Washington. We are sure that they of all people wish to conduct this war just as ex- peditiously and wisely as possible, and we are cer- tian that for wisdom and courage they are the world's best. Let's give them our unqualified support. Personalities Petite ............................................ Stella Sido Glamorous ......... ....... F rances Lathrope Handsome .......... ..........

THE WOODWARD TATTLER BEARS TO BATTLE MACOMBER, LIBBEY Bear Quintet Seeks Second Win Over Vocational Cowboys Friday night the Woodward Polar Bears meet the Craftsmen from Macom- ber who have only one win: that being from DeVilbiss. At the same time the Central squad meets Libbe . Should the Cowboys top the Irish wlio incidentally have a 14 game winning streak, and the Bears manage a win over Macomber Wood- ward would move up a game placing them a game out at first place. The Woodward squad has met and defeated the celler holding Crasftsmen in the first round. Macomber hadlthe home fioor advantage and this Friday the Bears will be on familiar hardwood. Coach Hanham will probably start Kornowa and Seymour at forewards, Jackson and Wilson at guards and Wesniewski in the ivot slot. The following weeli on February 10th the Bears travel to Libbey to meet the third place Cowboys. U In the first round encounter with the Libbey squad the Bears came out vic- torious. This tilt was on Bear Hard- wood. Tuesday however, finds the Cow- bo s on home floor. 'llonight the Irish meet the South- Siders. The Central squad is riding the crest of a 16 game winning streak and the surprise Libbey team may be the ones to snap it. The starting lineup for the Libbey game will probably be the same as that of the Macomber tilt. Girls Taking Intra-Murals Divided Into Various Teams New teams for girls' intra-murals have been announced. The freshman who play on Mondays are divided up into the following teams, Marines, Das- hounds, Woodward Wizards, and All Stars.

With less than a minute to go in an overtime period, Jack poured a long shot through the hoop to bring the score to a 37-37 deadlock. Came a sudden death pe- riod. There was a violent struggle under the Woodward bucket and out flashed Jack Wilson for a push shot. The ball went up and in and a new hero was borf. 1 at Saturday night the Woodward five traveled to T. U. hardwood and trounced an unbeaten Sylvania team, 39 to 28. at at 8 Who said thirteen is an unlucky number? Dave Kornowa proved this was wrong Friday night when he got 13 points against Scott. The very next night he met Sylvania and again the Mighty Rlylitexnailead 13 markers. The proceeds from the Faculty- Polish Lit tilt which came to a 25-25 tie amounted to S93.60. This money wrill go to the Woodward Athletic As- sociation. ,K at ,F At the last meeting of Scott and Woodward, the Bulldogs walked off with victories in the freshman, light- weight, and varsity games. Last Fri- day saw the Bears cop high honors in the latter two, although they dropped the freshman tilt. SYLVANIA STREAK SNAPPED BY BEARS Irv Wisniewski Looks Good On Backboard Work The Woodward Bears met the non- league Sylvania Burnham quintet and annexed another win to their nine games won by turning the little town giants back, 39 to 28, last Saturday, January 31, in the T. U. Field House. The Bears found a very well schooled quintet as their opponent. Sylvania had won 10 straight before meeting Woodward. The Bears turned in a game per- formance very satisfactory to the spectators which filled the Toledo University Fieldhouse for the Rocket- Westminster feature tilt. Playing a close man-to-man defense the Bears met a quick breaking of- fense which specialized iin hook shots. Wisniewski found the fieldhouse floor to his liking and Worked Well in taking them off the backboard. The first half ended, 16-10, dn favor of Woodward. The Bears began to Work better in the second quarter and each boy hit the bucket with much better effect. The Scott game the night before may have warmed them up for this sudden splurge of shots. Every man saw action throughout the battle which turned into a sucker shot battle in the closing mdnutes. The luck stayed with Toledo throughout the evening when the Rockets bowled over Westminster. National Bowlers Defeated In ,Encounter With Indians Defeat was in the air for the Na- tionals as they encountered the Waite Indians. Rolling a 2245 against the oppon- ents' 2302, Woodward bowed three times. The first by 31 pins, the sec- ond by 15 and the last by 11 of the maple sticks whlich proved to be the closest games thus far this season. These defeats have not put the Nats in the cellar for the previous week Ottawa Hills suffered defeat at the hands of the Bears at which time Bonkowski rolled a 233. Blasting a 168 opener, a 187 and a 198 final, 553 total, Skeeter Bonkow- ski grabbed high singles and three- game total.

The local wonders knocked out 2482 sticks while Libbey punched 2211 with Captain Qelkey shooting a 495 high series for the Cowboys. Bob Wysocki led the brood with a 573 which included games of 192, 179 and a 202 closing effoxt.

At the opening whistle the Baby Bears took command and held it throughout, although the Collingwood toast rs gamely tried to cash in for victory points. At the end of the first stanza the score was 18-4, and at halftime 27-13. Scott was outscored from all phases of the game with the locals garning 42 markrs from the field and 11 from the foul strip. While the vanquished netted but 30 points from the Held and 5 from the foul line. In the last three tilts 138 points were gained while the oppon- ents rounded but 73 markers which proves the future varsity to be a fairly high scoring quintet. Peanuts Long was the big man ofthe game with 18 markers, followed closely by Payak and Seymour with 15 and 12 points, respectively. Miller and Knierlm did their bit with a fielder and a charity toss apiece while Bob DuPont playing more of a defensive game add-. edtwo, which rounded out the scoring Three Girls Pass Swimming Testsg Enrollment Grows Swimming classes last week fell down low when only three girls passed any tests. Peggy Ball passed her twelfth test, Lucille Foley her eighth, and Frances Lathrope, tenth. Total enrollment this semester in- cludes 31 girls.

Frosh Five Lose To Scott In Bulldogs' Last-Half Rally A jinxed Woodward freshman squad lost their second game in two starts to the Scott Frosh 33-18 Friday in the Scott gym. The Lil' Bears, who seemed unable to hit their stride away from home, took the lead at the opening whistle and held it throughout the first half. When the third quarter opened Scott trailed 18-10. However the Bear attack began to falter, and slowly the Bulldogs took the lead. Once again Bob Harrison topped the scoring as he looped in five fielders for a total of ten points. The Scott Freshman now lead the city league. BEARETTE FACTS l Intra-mural basketball began this week.

WILSON IS HERO OF GAME - The very essence of ---- ----L spectacularism was wit- , A , nessed by about 1200 ' ' people in the Wood- igl Q ward gym last Friday, where Jack W il so n ...-...-,.....,. ,- -1 earned himselfthe title ' of hero in the double overtime tilt between Scott and Woodward, at which time Wilson gave his teamates the sweet taste of revenge and victory over the Maroon and White five, which hum- bled the Bears at their previous meet with one point surplus Captain Dave Kornowa of Woodward opened the game with a field shot, but was equaled and assed by invaders. lt was give and take, but the home cag- ers seemed to have a counter action against the Scott zone defense which overpowered them last time. Kornowa brought the first period to a close with another field marker, giving the Bears a seven to six lead. The second stanza saw the Bulldogs draw first blood and out-score the Blues with long distance fire, giving them a 17 to 14 lead at the half-time. Kornowa started the quarter with a free throw. Bob Brent hit the ring twice in a row to give the home boys a one point lead, but this was over-taken by the fast moving Bulldogs in the last score of that quarter, which granted them a 27 to 26 lead as the horn sound- Wilson ed. For the third time of the ame, Kor- nowa started the scoring of the quar- ter, where he connected for two charit tosses. Before a literally wild crowd: Wilson connected for the tying point Just as the horn signaled the end of the regulation time with the score knotted at 33-all. Overtime The three minute overtime period began very fast, with the invaders starting things rolling. But their lead was vanquished by the Bears. As the overtime was announced over, the score board revealed another dispute for champion. Each quintet had 37 points. Following this, the' sudden death agreement was made, which gives vic- tory to the first scoring team. The Bears snatched the sphere and eased up their fast motion, looking fora sure- iire opening. It was Woodward's Jack Wilson who found this opening. I-le ran through the accumulation of Ma- roon and White and chalked up the decisive two markers. -l.. . Boys To Get Clas ification Because of an increase in weight of certain boys and a decrease of others, Homer Hanham and Art Smith have again taken the height and weight of the gym classes, to determine in what specific group they belong. This is done semi-annually so that the boys may be graded more or less according to boys in their own classification.

NAVY Lawrence Nuber Answers Call For Model Planesg Prize Offered The Aviation Club of Woodward Hligh School took up the urgent re- quest of Secretary of Navy Frank Knox for model war planes by swing- ing their entire program into a drive to manufacture these small exact models for use by United States Air Cadets. The Secretary of War issued this call when it was found that there was no other means for cadetsito identify enemy planes except by using models. Lawrence Nuber, Aviation Club ad- visor, plans to conform to regulations of the government on this model building, which will include all types of bombers, pursuit ships, and all types of ships in the Axis forces. Production of these minute crafts will begin immediately and a great number is expected from Woodward youths who are enthusiastic but are unable to fight because of age limits. The Theory of Flight class mem- bers now only number 11, and no new members were expected to date, but due to the new turn of events, the club will be expanded. Classes have met on Thursday of every week, and will continueto func- tion as before. Mr. Nuber reports the class was ready for this call and had already put much thought and time into developing better model anrcrafts. Air raid wardens of Toledo will probably receive some of the Toledo youth ships for study. The Navy is offering a prize for the best model of any type ship built. Mr. Nuber expects to go after thus prize. Present Enrollment Much Less Than First Semester The following statistics compare the student enrollment of the first semester in September and the sec- ond semester starting in January. Freshman enrollment in September was 8213 in January, 811. Sopho- mores totaled 6223 now, 599. Juniors had 4719 now, 443. There were 408 seniors in September, there are 400 now. The entire number of pupils in school in January was 2253. This is a decrease of 69 pupils since Septem- ber. In every class except the freshman, there are approximately 100 more girls than boys. Toufy Zurob Battles Way To Cop Lightweight Crown Boxing, minus its cauliflower ears and bent noses, has taken on new colors and skyrocketed from a thing unknown to a featured position on the Bear sport program the last few months. The recent popularity of the fistic sport was due to the way the fans went for it last gayety nite when the four cornered game was put on as a special event. Toufy Zurob, the Bear representative in the high school lightweight division, cupped the crown January 28 from George Bellkoph, the Waite slugger. Toufy, who can rightly be called toughy defeated comers from DeVilbiss, Scott, and Libbey to gain his crown. Toufy weighs in at 135 and hails from Friendly Center where he takes part in athletics the year round. A boxing club has been put under wayby C.C. LaRue, Woodward principal, to which- all boys are invited to Join. An adviser has not as yet been selected but Joe Dence and Leo Robie are likely candidates for the job. Any boy interested in learning the manly art of self-defense can watch for an announcement and sign up as directed. ZDRAVJE, SHEMAS, HOWINGTON LEAD No Special Way To Study, Reveal Honorable Students Leading the senior class with a per- fect six A grade card to her credit is Ruth Zdravje, who has been on the honor roll every year since she en- tered Woodward. Before that she was an honor student at Sherman grade school. Her ambition is to be a labo- ratory technician. Upon graduation from high school she plans to attend Toledo University. Ruth claims there is no special tech- nique which she follows in studying, hut she studies approximately two hours a day. Due to her scholastic achievement, Ruth is a member of the Honor So- ciety and the Peris. Howington At the top of the junior list is blue eyed, blonde curly-haired Marion Howmgton. Her ambition is to travel around the world although she has no idea how she will earn the money. After she leaves Woodward, she in- tends to go to Toledo University. Maman has held a record of A's and B's all through school except in the grades where she received C .in conduct. She studies approximately one and one-half hours a day. .Marian belongs to the Peris and the Glee Club. Shemas Even though she has an all A rec- ord, Elaine Shemas, junior, stated, I don't study any special way. I study Just like other kids. I do my home- work whenever I have time, some trimes after school and other times at two in the morning. Since her future ambition is to be a Pan-American' Airlines hostess or stenographer, it is required of her to have good grades. Her favorite sub- Jects are Spanish and Glee Club, but she .doesn't have any definite dislikes. Elaine is a member of the Peri's, French, and Spanish clubs, St. Valentine To Be Theme Of Polish Lit Skate, Feb. 11 With St. Valentine as the theme, the Polish Literary Society is sponsoring a skate at the Coliseum, February 11, from 7:30 to 10:30. This date was given because it was thought that there would be no school on Lincoln's Birth- day, February 12. Heading the committee are Virginia Lewandowski, and Mary Ann Szofer, co chairmeng Geraldine Wisochi is tio- ket chairman, while Catherine Duszyn- ski is in charge of publicity. Any senior member of the club selling five or more tickets is allowed to attend the senior banquet at the expense of the Polish Literary Society, which is sponsoring this skate for that purpose. Leo Robie is adviser of the group. LIBRARY NOTES Several students have taken books out of the library and have never re- turned them. Three of the most impor- tant books missing are He Heard America Sing by Purdyg Sam Hous- ton Patriot , by Seymour, and Physics in Everyday Life , by Henderson. It would be appreciated if the students holding these books would return them immediately, Stated Miss Stella Saw- telle. O Q l Last week the library sent 75 or 80 books of fiction to boys in camp. The librarian chose books of which she had duplicate copies. U 1 8 Every Monday second hour library assistants have A class. For this reason library will never be open this hour. POLEH BAYAH My dear Miss Bayah, Why has Tillie Ochs been seen con- stantly in Room 228 getting her ring size. Please tell me, Bob Why Bob!

Your adviser, Msms Faculty Makes Good In Late Rally For Great Comeback The ufaltering faculty tied the Polish Lits 2525 J a n u a r E 29 in the wildest game st a g e d on ear Hardwood in many a year. Watson which way did they go Wel- ever paced the lpedagogues with seven markers. Doc's ong shots were by far the high-lights of the game. Not only did Brother Welever hit for two longs but of the eight he tried he only missed by more than two feet. The Polish Lits paced by Joe Kaso- kowski went into an early lead. They led 13-8 at the first stanza and 19-14 st halftime. Jack Ta lor then made good on s free toss and' a fielder to make it 16-19. A good one from the charit strip and a sucker shot by Smith an1Robie respectively tied it at 20 all ss the third quarter ended. In the fourth quarter spills were plentiful and baskets few. The Lite man- aged 5 points while the teachers got as many. The faculty had 25 chances for fouls and connected with eight while the Lits had but six and got three. Jack Wilson and Dave Kornowa were the extra two men on the floor. Draves, McClure Give Girls In Gym Classes Workouts Left, back right, back. All right girls, you can rest now. Amid the groans and aches of pains is heard the voice of Mrs. Lois Draves or Miss Catherine McClure in their work of directing some exercise sessions with the girls gym classes. Maybe they are in answer to defense needs but t h e majority, of the girls find it rather difficult to walk limberly. In echo to these cries, the answer was more workout. And you'll see the girls, accompanied on the piano by Mrs. Naomi Leonhardt, turning left, right, left, right. .. --.1-t Rtimsra GOI? ARD T TTLER SATURDAY . Constantly, Consistently Constructive .I-HOP - - 9-12 Vol. XIV Toledo, Ohio, February 13, 1942 No. 19 FIVE WOODWARD STUDENTS VISIT HASELBART'S BAND WILL FURNISH SCOTT TO OBSERVE LUNCH HOURS MUSIC FOR J-HAQP TOMORROW 9-12 F0111' Teachers .Have .Charge J,H0p COMMITTEE Ed Sloan And Ruth Schiedler Of Cafeteria During Each Period Scott, the second in the series of visits made by the Student Council and the Tattler during the lunch hours of the Toledo high schools, was visited Tuesday, February 10. E. H. Wohler accompanied three Student Council members and two Tattler representa- tives. Betty Osgood, Elaine Roach, and Donald Weber represented the Student Council while Jim Mund and Adele Loehrke represented the Tattler. The system employed at Scott is quite similar to Woodward's. There are two lunch periods, with a fifteen minute intermission in between. The periods are each thirty minutes in length, during which time the pupil must either go to the movie or the calfeteria, where he must stay until the close of the period. There is no loitering or running around the halls, as there is a teacher patrol system in effect, not only during the lunch hour, but every other period. There are always two teachers on duty in the auditorium. At the end of both periods, there was little proof of the large number of people who had been as- sembled there. Near the end of the movie, all waste paper is passed down to the end ofthe aisle, where it is collected and taken away. When the delegation viewed the auditorium at the end of both periods there was little proof of the large num- bter of people who had been assembled t ere. In the cafeteria, however, each person is responsible for his own waste paper and dishes, and for that few who don't cooperate, there are two teachers there to r e m i n d them. When questioned about cooperation in this manner, O. B. Kirk, director of student activities, said that most of the students were helpful in this way, and that the system worked very satisfactorily. Woodward's lunch system varies from Scott's in that one man, Arnold Brown, instead of four, supervise it. Mr. Brown stated, lf everyone would do his part by carrying his or her tray or milk bottles to the table used espe- cially for this purpose, there would be less trouble in solving our lunch peri- od problem. - Plan Presented To Seniors By Reserve Representative A representative from the U.S. Naval Reserves spoke to Woodward senior boys last Monday during second hour in the auditorium. Mr. Seeberg, the representative, pre- sented the following plan which was designed lor high school seniors. The seniors would sign up now in the Re- serves but remain in inactive service until June 5, when they would graduate. At this time they would enter the ser- vioe training, and not before. Mr. Seeberg's oiiice is at 411 Customs House, his office phone is ADams 6793. .i. Chorus Prepares For Opera Season With f'Trial By J ury With the joint concert a past event, the Woodward chorus is now prepar' ing for their opera season. The officers of the Glee Club and C. R. Ball chose to have two one-act operas rather than one two- or three-act musicals, so all the members of the large chorus will be able to take part. The featured opera will be s Gilbert and Sullivan favorite, Trial by Jury. The second opera is not fully decided upon. . Participants in the planning of the J -Hop included: seated, left to right, Evelyn Cieslewski, Hanna Serafin, Bill Searles, general chairman, and Jeanne Plasket. Standing on the left is Dick Foran while Ed Sloan, class president is overlooking on the right. Jr. Red Cross Volunteers To Help With Crosstown Woodward's Red Cross members vol- unteered to mimeograph and staple the Red Cross magazine, 'fCrosstown. Tom Fabrium of Macomber was elected edi- tor-in-chief of this project last Wednes- day at Scott, where representatives from all junior and senior high schools met. Whitney Vocational is to make the cover, and DeVilbiss will cut the sten- cil. The idea of the magazine is to devel- op closer contact with various schools to find out about their Red Cross activ- ities. Since the delegates from each school were chosen as associate editors, Woodward's representatives are Joyce Henley and Verly Collins. The following students, who are all freshman will act as reporters to con- tact the grade schools in the Woodward district: Rosalie Burton, Chasey Kath- ryn Keiter, Hamilton, Stella Gussis, La- Grangeg Doris Kempski, Parkland: Mar- vin Ellsworth, Stickneyg Alice Kosm- ider, Websterg Marilyn Arps,Shermang and Emma Hoff, Riverside. Mrs. Ersig Speaks To P.T.A. Using Motion Pictures as her topic, Mrs. Marie Ersig was the guest speaker of the P.T.A. meeting at Stickney school on Wednesday evening, Febru- ary 11. Mrs. Ersig, who worked as a movie censor for the State of Ohio, spoke principally about the movies, and their effect on school children. Her advise to the parents was, See the movie first, then decide whether or not to allow your children to see it. Defense Bond To Be Rafiled Oif By Alchemists At Dance A twenty-tive dollar defence bond will be awarded to the person holding the lucky ticket at an afternoon dance which will be held Thursday, February 26, by the Alchemist Society. A W.P A. orchestra will furnish the music in the girls' gym from 2:30 until 5 o'clock. Bob Unstine and Aniese Seed are in charge of publicity for the affair, and Marjorie Sharer will take care of tickets. Only persons having rafiie tickets will be admitted to the dance. Tickets may be secured from any Alchemist for ten cents. Nick Darah is president of the society and Charles Staneart is adviser. Health Speaker To Address Classes At Two Assemblies Mrs. Bertha Hess from the health department of the Ohio State Depart- ment of Education will speak February 18 and 19 to all Woodward students. Her talks will deal with sex and hygi, ene. On Wednesday, F e b r u a r y 18, the assembly period will be held during the regular B schedule and the third hour. During the first half of the assembly seniors and freshmen will meet, while the Juniors and sohopmores will go the second half. The assembly on Thursday will start second hour in order to be fair to third hour classes and continue through the B schedule with the boys meeting the first half and the girls the second. Mrs. Hess speaks at all Toledo high schools and various P. T. A. groups in the city. These assemblies are held in con- nection with National Hygiene Week. T. U. Personnel Head Speaks At First Friendship Forum Mr. Donald Parks, head of the person- nel department at Toledo University, spoke last Sunday at the first ofa series of four Hi-Y, Friendship forums, Mr. Parks' topic was Bringing Up Father. In the nearfuture, students will be completing college courses in two and a half years, stated Mr. Parks. This is of course excluding medical coures and their like. Bringing Up Father is to educate fathers that they cannot expect their sons and daughters to follow the same occupation that they themselves have followed. Mr. Parks also discussed what effect the war will have on the youth of today. Refreshments were served at the close of Mr. Parks talk. Woodward, Rossford, and DeVi1biss were in charge of this first forum. Clark Helps With Uniforms L. C. Clark, in charge of activities has been appointed custodian of t e band uniforms and instruments. They are checked in and out of room 305, by Mr. Clark. New clothes cupboards are being con- structed by S. B. Crouse and his wood- shop boys to insure protection of the uniform against dust and moths. To Lead Grand March At Junior Prom The junior class of Woodward high school will hold their fourteenth annual junior prom in the Woman's Building tomorrow night from 9 to 12, with music furnished by Stan Haselbart. The gala affair of the evening, the grand march, will be led by Ed Sloan, class president, and his guest, Ruth Schiedler.

Each week, two Tattler members and two Student Council representatives will visit one high school and report their findings. These four stu- dents are to bring back to Woodward information on lunch hour regulations and on order and clean- liness in the building. After all the high schools in the city have been visited, there will be a discussion of the various techniques found in other schools to insure a well- managed lunch hour. From these ideas, it is hoped that Woodward will be able to decide whether we need a new schedule or whether we will retain the old plan we are now using. Along with the efforts of the Student council and the Tattler, Woodward must have the cooper- ation of the Student body. The student body must shoulder the majority of the responsibility. Only through conscientious endeavor can our halls be made clean. Do we possess such desire? J-Hop Manners UNIOR PROM COMMITTEES, junior officers, and their advisers have all cooperated in one big-Iaifort to produce an outstanding and enjoy- able J- op tomorrow evening. Their work is to be commented upon for it has truly been a job well done. However for an entirely successful prom it is necessary for you who are attending to also make contributions. Since the dance is a formal, leave your barbarian customs at home and in their place bring your best manners. Be reserved, polite and above all courte- ous. Exchange dances with other couples, follow instructions in the grand march, and converse with the chaperones. Don't spare the compliments, for a formal is a rare occasion when everyone looks their best. Finally go to respectable places after the prom is over. Where ever you go, once more be well-mannered and keep Woodward's reputation. Let's make the 1942 J-Hop one never to be for- gotten. Has Woodward No Gentlemen? HE DAYS of chivalry are not dead. Some boys still get up to give the girls a chair. They even are so kind as to open a door for them. Not one of these boys who make a practice of per- forming these little courtesies would ever think of barging down the hall with his strong shoulderup, running into everyone including girls and teachers. This, however, is grecisely what ie being done. The rowdyism of the oys and some girls too, during the lunch hours and between classes has got to stop. Do wehwant Woodward to have the reputa- tion of housing a gang of rufiians and hoodlums? No, things are going to change. It isn't because we don't know the simple rules of etiquette, it is because we do not practice them and for some in- sane reason consider people who do sissies. Come on, boys and girls, let's be ladies and gentle- men. Woodward Whispers I Woodward whispers are loud and clear this week, and of course everyone knows what they're about, don't they? But those who don't just aren't hep to jive. Because everyone should know that all the whisperin' and talkin' is about the great event to take place tomorrow night, the J-Hop. s o n Fred David, junior, is really in a pickle. Says he, and I quote, Do you know where I can End a nice girl to take to the J-Hop? All the girls I've asked already have dates, unquote. And all we can say is, and again I quote, the early bird gets the worm, and you're too late, Fred, unquote. 1 sf if Here's a patiotic and useful suggestion, instead oi spending your dimes and quarters on Valentines with sentimental, sweet nothings written on them, buy defense stamps. Let's do our part to defeat the axis. 4 8 Sl Mystery ofthe day. Is Chuck Mann going to the J-Hop? And if so, with whom?

Armed To Kill Yes, it happens everytime, You know what I mean. You go around with a girl three months, six months, aYyear. It doesn't matter. Your fate is all the same. ou spend your hard-earned money on a girl and what does she do? You all know. Yes sir, the first sailor b l o w s into town and your girl be- comes your ex-girl. At the sight of a uniform all the girls swoon. A soldier or a sailor is deadly but a marine is just plain murder. You spend a small fortune every week-end on the one and only and then she coyly, Isn't that sailor cute ? Well, brother, that is the time to start looking for somebody else. If a soldier learns any- thing in camp, it's how to kill a girl withouta gun. There are several types of boys who are safe from this danger. First, we have the fellow with a big car. If the fleet anchored in the Maumee Riv- er, he would still be able to get a girl. Next comes the football hero. As long as this fellow keeps making 95 yard runs and passes that can be caught, he's safe. Even during the off season the girls will string him along for fear he won't look at them next fall. Of course, we have the basket-ball hero who's in the same class. Just suppose your girl is immune to the army. What happens? You will walk down the hall and there is your former dream-girl confering with that tall, handsome, blond drip that sits across from her in geomet . Besides it isn't hard to see that they're not talk- ing about triangles squares or anything like that. Believe me, I speak from experience. When that corporal stole my girl, it was the only time in my life I wanted to sabotage the marines. Sob Sister Sal If you were allowed to be cupid this St. Valentine's Day, who would you work on?

The wild partisan crowd that packed the Libbey gym saw a Woodward quin- tet stubbornly hold on when defeat was eminent, and then stage a Frank Merriwell finish to pull the contest out of the fire. It was evident from the opening whistle that the Bears weren't hitting and Libbey was. The Cowboys split the Woodward defense, broke up their offense and in general had things their own way for three fourths of the battle. The score stood 16-13 Libbey at half time and the North End lads hadn't shown a thing. Hampered by the poor- est oflicialing yet seen at a city con- test, the teams took the floor for the second half. It was then that Coach Hanham's charges came to light. They held the vaunted Libbey quintet to four points in the entire second half, them- selves compiling eight. With two minutes to play Libbey sported a two point lead. Then Bern Seymour took charge. He looped in a ons- handed fielder from beyond the foul line to knot the game. Seconds later he hit a charity toss for the margin of victory, The final minute saw wild mix-ups as Libbey endeavored to score. Kornowa with seven, Seymour five, Wizniewski four, Wilson three, Jackson two, made up the Bear total. Henning paced Libbey with nine points. Craftsmen Five Defeated By Woodwardites, 39 to 33 Macomber's Mechanics breezed into the Woodward G m Friday night with a do or dis attitudye and battled the sec- ond place Bears on even terms for two quarters only to fall away in the final half and wind up on the short end of a 39-33 count. Lead by Jim Krantz, the Craftsmen got off to a fast start and, to the sur- prise of everyone, kept coming. The Polar Bears sported a 15-13 lead at the halftime, and the outcome was really in doubt. In the third quarter, however, the Bears began hitting. Bern Seymour hit two of the prettiest shots ever seen in the North End gym,and Woodward was rolling. Wisniewski and Wilson began controlling the backboard traffic using their height to excellent advantage. Jack Wilson and Irv Wisniewski each connected for nine points to lead the scoring. The former left the game early in the fourth quarter due to personal fouls. Kornowa looped in seven points for runner-up spot. Spring Sports Sked To Open April 10 With Baseball Nines The initial appearence of the 1942 s ring sports participators will take pl,ace on April 10.

AMERICANS HOLDING SECOND SPOT WITH NATIONAL S TIE FOR GUTTER -. .- Howard Phipps gCoach Howard I Phipps' blo:w'lli'n g squads administered double setbacks to two teams sporting DeVilbiss colors. These two wins aided the Americans to maintain their hold on the runner up spot, while it proved the Amerk further up the ladder, and to pull the Nats ont of the anchor position. Central and Scott are tied for first place with 29 victories against 4 defeats, .879 percentage, followed by the Bear keglers holding a .697 percentage with 23 wins and 33 starts. Two game prove the onlydifference between the second slot Woodward bowlers and the third place Macomber five who sport a .633 percentage. The National gutter boys are tied with Ottawa Hills for the cellar position with 9 wins and 25 starts for a .273 per- centage. Directly above the cellar hold- ers are the DeVilbiss Tigers who have won 14 and lost 19. Listed below are high individual con- tributions: American--High Single Game lst Bob Wysocki-N235 2nd Irv.

The squad will limber up nightly in ,fthe boy's gym. IF lk It is interesting to note that Scott's Bulldogs, pre-season favorites to cop the crown, have now slipped below the 500 per-cent mark. Central, Woodward, Libbey are the only teams above the middle line. 1 8 1 The Polar Bears have built up a con siderable reputation for snapping win ning streaks. On December 26th they snapped the eight game streak of Del- phos High. Then on January 31 the Blue and White humbled Sylvania, previous winner of ten straight games. s 4 Regardless of the team standing a' the end of the city race, all teams will participate in the annual tournament to be held at the T. U. Field House. Primary Training Stressed In Spring Football Practice Jack Taylor, coach of the Woodward football team, made a call for freshmen, sophomores, and juniors who are inter- ested in football to go out for spring practice in that sport which started last Monday. Four weeks of practice are planned on for the boys this spring, and which four weeks depend on the weather. Pri- mary training will be a principal part of the schedule because so few exper- ienced ones are returning. Callisthenics are to be stressed to help smooth out the future gridders quicker. That no other sport would be inter- ferred with was emphasized by Mr. Tay- lor in order to free more boys for spring practice. Freshman Quintet Breaks Jinx To Trounce Macomber Coach Watson Welever's Freshman squad broke a jinx that has been dog- ging their appearance on alien floors, and came up with a 30-26 overtime win at Macomber's expense in the down- town gym. The Mechanics started strong and lead 7-9 at the first quarter and 12-11 at the half time. The hectic battle con' tinued throughout the second half with the Bears splnrging in the last 30 sec- onds of the game to deadlock at 24-24. The overtime was fast and furious with Macomber scoring first, but una' ble to stop Harrison, Lentz and Sey' mour, as they tallied the winning points- Harrison with 13 and Seymour 11 paced the attack. Rens Stoop To Polish Litsg Polish Lits, To Americans Only one of the two intra-mural meets scheduled for Monday February 2, was played, and that game was be- tween the Polish Lits and the Ren- aissance with the former being vic- torious. The one-sidsd basketball tilt ended with the Polish Lit having 31 points while the Rene garned ll. Two cager pairs met on Wednesday, February 4. The Americans humbled the Polish Lits in a 17-13 game, while the valient Adams Townshippers were faced with another defeat when the North Enders came out on the long end of a 19-16 score. The Auto Mechanics were handed a forfeit win over the Printers on Feb- ruary 9 On the same date the Frosh All Stars took a close battle from the Rens with a 17-15 score. Variety Show Visits Naval Armory, Sailors Enthused The Naval Armory was visited by Mrs. Dorothy Nicklin's variety show group on the evening of January 27. The Woodward students who gave the show Gayety Nite, again performed be- fore the sailors at the armory. Kenny Zimmerman was master of ceremonies. The variety show was much the same as when it was given on Gayety Nite, except that it was adapted for a presentation to the men in the serw ice. .Mrs. Nicklin was complimented very highly on the show by the officers in charge The sailors received the vari - ons , acts ofthe show with much enthusiasm. BEARS TO TACKLE DEVILBISS TONIGHT Polar Bears Will Attempt Second Victory Over Tiger Five Tonight the Woodward Polar Bears meet the Tigers from DeVilbiss in a game which will be one of the sport- light' games of the current league cam- paign. The Bears strengthened their hold on top honors by defeating the Libbey Cow- boys last Tuesday. This left Woodward but a half game out of a tie for first place. By the time this is printed, the Central-DeVilbiss tilt on February 11 will have become history. Should by some twist of hardwood fate, the Tigers manage a win over the Irish, Woodward will go into a tie for the league lead. In the Bears' first encounter with De- Vilbiss the Woodward squad hung up a 31-24 victory. This was mostly due to the 17 markers Dave Kornowa chalked up during the course of the evening. Wohlstadter led the Tigers with nine points. In the first Bear-Tiger tilt the DeVil- piss five had the home-floor advantage. Tonight the Bears take the field on familiar hardwood. DeVilbiss had supremecy of the foul stripe as they dumped in 10 charity tosses out of a possible 17. The Bears, however, speared 3 out of 8. Coach Hanham has not as yet an- nounced the starting line up but the opening horn will probably find Kor- n o w a and Seymour at forewards, Wisniewski at center and Danny Jack- son and Jack Wilson at gaurds. Game time is set for 8:15, with the Reserves playing the preliminary. Bear Cubs Manage Win Over Mechs To Take League Lead Woodward Bear Cubs Took over un- disputed position of first place from Macomber as they defeated the Mech- anics by a 29 to 25 margin. The downtown quintet drew first blood but Knierim flipped in a lay up shot to knot the score at two all. Afew seconds later Bob Long sunk a charity toss to put the Baby Bears in command and gave them a lead which was held throughout. At the intermission the Cubs were on the long end of a 24 to 14 count. The second half was more or less a defensive battle with neither team put- ting on a scoring show. Although the locals were outscored 9 to 5 in the final half they glided home safely on their ten point halfway lead. John Payak captured high individual honors with 11 points, while fallin one point short of that mark was BobI.on with 10. Miller garned 3, Knierim and DuPont netted 2 apiece, and Duhart con- tributed 1 to the lightweight cause. --. ...

They are: All Stars, Patricia Moore, captain and Joan Grynszak manager, Dashonnds, Dorothy Best manager, Anne Kornowa, captain, Woodward Wizards, Betty Clum, manager, and Voila Sibald, captain, Marines, Gloria Aberling manager, and Mary Jane J asiak, captain. Due to the use of the gym on Wed- nesday and Thursday the junior and senior teams were unable to meet and therefore could not select their man- agers and captains. .. Girl Swimmers Catch Man A dimpled, wavy haired man invaded the girls swimming classes at the Y. last Thursday. Wolfesses Hanna Ser- aiin Ruth Spaudling, and Lucille Foley, took special care of this trespasser. It should be added that this handsome romeo has already reached the ripe old age of five. THE WOODWARD TA'I'I'LER PETE PEN-A-QUIP This week is quite an eventful one with the advancing of clocks on Monday, the Polish Lit skate Wednesday, cele- bration of Lincoln's birthday Thursday, the Woodward - DeVilbiss game occur- dngion Friday the thirteenth, and the J - op on Valentine's Day. I I I Noon movie for next week will be In the Navy, a rip-roaring comedy starring Abbot and Costello. I I I The Spanish Club's contribution to the Red Cross fund totaled 55.25.

Dean Johnson was puzzled by the laughter of his students when he informed them that there would pro- bably be a shortage of bags. When the class didn't stop laughing, Mr. Johnson, thought he would clear their confu- sion, so he called them sacks. Expla- nation to Mr. Johnson: boys have the odd habit ofcalling all girls bags. I I I Irv Wiesnewski will escort Joyce Hanham to the J-Hop. Joyce, who at- tends Scott High, is the daughter of Homer Hanham. I I I Mrs. Bowyer's fr e s h m a n home economics classes are now studying textiles. February 9, they used micro- scopes to study the fabrics and the way they are woven.

The final contestant was selected on the basis of his essay, the recmmenda- tion made by the faculty committee, and his voice recording. Marilyn Schoon- maker, senior, and Charles Myneder, junior, werechosen to representWood- ward by the committe which included C.C.LaRue, Miss Camilia Savage, Miss Helen Marie Griflin, Mrs. Hazel Mac- Manamon, and Mrs. Marie Ersig.

Best Speaker Of The Week To Receive Gold Honor Pin In order to further the perfection of extemporaneous speaking, Miss Doro- thy Pasch's third hour English class has decided to award a 10 karet gold pin to the best speaker at each weekly meeting. The pin, a gold scroll with an H for honor on it, will be worn for one week's donation. At the end of the school year it will be given to the person who has won it the greatest number of times. The committee selecting the pin in- cluded Bob Hunt and Josephine Skaif. The regular oiiicials are chairman, Sidney Adams, vice chairman, Norman Wolfeg Clara Spath, secretary, Jose- phine Skaif treasurer. Polish Army Oflicer Tells Experiences On Visit Here Young in years, but old in experience, 21 year-old Leon Watorowski visited Woodward last Wednesday with a for- mer Woodwardite Genevieve Luszczak. Serving in the Polish army in Can- ada as a corporal Cadet, Mr. Wator- owski is visiting the United States for the first time. Though he admitted the United States is very nice, he reluc- tantly added that the people were not as cultured or appreciative as those of other places he has visited. He also mentioned a dislike of make-up on the girls. While in Scotland one year and three weeks, Mr. Watorowoki soon learned to regard it as the most wond- erful country with the finest people he has met in the war. He also saw active duty in Norway. Bil1's List Due to the excellent cooperation which I have received irom my com- mittee, the prom, no doubt, will be a great success. Since my committee is a very good representative of the junior class, the juniors will indirectly receive everything they asked for or could want in the J-Hop, declared Bill Searles, general chairman of the prom. Breathless after such a long state- ment, this intellectual chap stated that he is escorting Erma Makely, a Central junior, to the prom. This, of course accounts for his eager anticipation of the big event. Bill, president of the Hi-Y, maintained an all A average for the first semester. When asked his height he pulled out his drivers license and with a very embarrassed look replied, 5 feet, 6 inches. This bland lad, who is usually seen with Bob Domito or Charles Mann, works as a gas station attendant after school and on Saturdays and Sundays. Perhaps that has something to do with his favorite food, which is beef-steak. A prominent member of Woodward's Engineering Society, Bill hopes, some day, to become an engineer. Superstitious Simpletons Scared Of Friday Thirteen Like all other things, the bad luck spirit must have its holidays, but in- stead of resting, it makes a gala affair ofFriday the 13th. This year seems to be a favorite of the spirit, because 1942 possesses three of these doomed Fri- days, February 13, March 13 and No- vember 13. This is probably for the sole benefit of us super-superstitious. Our slogan for today is BEWARE! Your rabbit's foot, horseshoe, or good luck charm will prove useless. Nothing any human can do will unsuper this superstition. This year the Sophomores are forced to face the in ev i ta ble. What will happen? Or didn't you know the date for their prom is the jinxed 13th of March. Woe be to S vphs who soften. Take heed, you can't be too careful at a time like this. Your actions might make you or break you. So prepare yourself, for this spirit will break you if you don't watch out. Tea Given At Nurses' Home A tea was given for junior and senior girls interested in n u r si n g at the Nurses' Home at Toledo Hospital on January 29. Thirty girls from Wood- ward, accompanied by Miss Hazel Coy, attend the te a. Vesper Handy and Wanda Jane Sitek, iormer Woodward girls who are now probationers at Toledo Hospital, acted as hostesses. After the tea, the visitors were shown through the hospital. ANCIENT PROVERB PROVEN WRONG BY BOYS HOME ECONOMICS CLASS Spare the rod and spoil the child. This ancient bit of proverbial advice was really proven erroneous to the boys in Miss Angela Abair's home economics class, when they visited the Day Nursey at Webster school. Close observation revealed that ia pleasant taotfullness is the keynote in dealings with children from two through four. Miss Cameron and Mrs. Ramer, super- visors, handled their young charges with a firm but gentle and encouraging attitude. Light recreation and balanced meals constitute most of the children's day, but creative work is encouraged. A bit apart from the sunnyside is the fact that each potential little citizen 18 given a glass of fruit juice and cod liver oil. However, the children soon accustom themselves to it and grimaces are rare. In a general round table discussion, several interesting facts were brought to lig ht by the observing boys. The character of e ac h child was taken up and it was pointed out that ad ults conquer virtually the same problems only on a larger scale. It was further pointed out that little habits must be erased and turned into better channels. All these children have many years of school ahead, and this training will probably prove invaluable in future . years of study. .- L F' Call To Arms Wilfred Soldwish, rad of '37, has been stationed at Fortgenjamin Harri- son, Indiana.

Art Museum Takes Survey To Find Scope of Influence The Art Museum questionaire Hlled out during the first hour Tuesday was to find if the museum has any influence on the pupils. For the past few weeks a visual dis- play on line, form, and color has been placed near the showcase by Mr. Barkin from the art musem. The purpose of this was to gain the interest of the students not taking art, for it is believed that the rinciples of t h i s subject should be known to all. Another displa yon line will be exhi- bited here soon. .. .a- A - - 'na BUY WOODWARD TATTLER LEARN I Constantly, Consistently Constructive STAMPS B - - - RULES Vol. XIV Toledo, Ohio, February 20, 1942 No. 20 FACULTY QUINTET TO ENCOUNTER LITS Robie Coaches Pedagogues In Oncoming Tilt l Leo Robie The, powerful fa c u lt y quintet will make its second bid for victory against the fast moving Polish Lit five in the assembly period next Thursday. Aided by the addition of Ted Szelag- owski, student teacher and former Polar Bear and Toledo University star, to their squad marks the old timers the the favorites. Squads will be the same fB tihe last game which ended in a dead oc . Proceeds of this payoff game will be turned over to the athletic fund to sponsor the spring sports program this year. During the past nine years track has cost Woodward an average of 585.00 per seasong baseball tops the spring sports expenses with 592.00 per year and golf and tennis have averaged 531.00 annually. Charles C. LaRue, principal, has esti- mated that the total cost for this year will be about 5250.00. As 584.00 was made on the last game, a capacity crowd Thursday morning, which means 1800 students will net department 5162.00 or four dollars shortof the esti- mated expenditures for the current year. Do to the lack of funds some schools in the city are curtailing spring sports. Let that not be thesame at Woodward. Lincoln Day Program Marks Presentation Of Old Glory The program commemorating Lincoln's .birthday opened with the presentation of an American flag to our school by the Pond American Legion Auxiliary. A service flag which was also pres- entend at this assembly is now hanging over the troph case on the Brat door. The flag made by the Opportunity Club represents the former Woodwardites now in the service. Students participating in the pro- gram were: Eugene Glezinsla, Jane aidel, Dorothy Martin, Wanda Burke, Estelle Szymansky, Kenneth Zimmer- man, and Grace Iabuzinski. Two Clubs, Ofiice To Save Stamps To Buy Scholarship Collecting sales tax stam s for scho- larships and a general tundi, has been taken up by, the Engineering Society, Polish Literary Society, and the oflice. The organizations which are under the supervision of W.F. Rohr, and Leo Robie, respectively, are using these stamps to provide a scholarship to some worthy member. The office, with Mrs. Betty Brinkerhoi' in charge, has a general fund. Students are ked to save all theirut stamps and tuashem in to anyone ofr the three mentioned places.

THIRD SCHOOL ON INSPECTION LIST VISITED BY WOODWARD COMMITTEE Libbey, the third school on Wood- ward's lunch hour inspection list, was visited Tuesday by Mrs. Eula Upp, temporary adviser, and Betty Hansen of the Student Council, and Betty Ann Buyea and Sydney Adams of the Tattler. Libbey's lunch schedule is the same as Woodward's but the lunch system is entirely different. Many students who bring their lunch eat in the bal- cony of the cafeteria. There is no dirt, rowdiness, nor any confusion whatsoever. A new system is being used since war time was adopted. Instead of going to lunch according to floors, as formerly, one wing of the building studies while the other goes to lunch. w nl-A' .. ..- Pupils must remain in the cafeteria or basement until the next bell rings. There is no eating in any place except the cafeteria or basement. One teacher is on duty in the cafe- teria and one in the basement. The faculty member on duty in the base- ment made the remark that the kids were terribly embarassed if they had to stoop over to pick up a piece of paper. Even though there is a large crowd, there is little paper strewn about because waste containers are placed every few feet. The cafeteria is swept between lunch hours, but the basement hall is not. Even then it is not half as dirty as Woodward's second floor after . lunch. AIR RAID WARDEN APPOINTEE NAMED Clyde Van Tassel Prepares Bulletin for Teachers 1 i Clyde Van Tassel Clyde Van Tassel, who has been appointed air raid warden of this particular district by C. C. LaRue, will be responsible for not only the pupils in Woodward, but since the school will be opened to passers-by also, the inhabitants of his neighbor- hood in case of an air raid. Having been tutored at meetings sponsored bv the Board of Education, Mr. Van Tassel, along with Mr. LaRue, has assembled a number of rules into a bulletin which has been distributed among all teachers. These bulletins were published in an elfort to give Woodward instructors a deeper un- derstanding of such an activity and are subject to their criticisms. All students will be given a speci- fied place to go according to the room which they're in at the time of an air raid signals They will leave their equipment behind and teachers will close, but will go to ing while stationed The boys with male The third not lock, their doors.

Once in the halls, pupils will stand two abreast beside the walls, permit- ting a wide aisle between those on each side and through the middle of the halls. They are urged to stand quietly and the P. A. system may eventually be used for singing. The air raid signal will be the class bell, which will give two short rings close together. The first drill is expected to be early next week. Sailor Donates Tax Stamps Just before leaving to join the Navy James Tucker visited Clyde Meek and presented him with two full cigar boxes of tax stamps. James left with Robert King and Robert Kopp, all graduates from last year, for the Great Lakes Naval Training Station. Principal C. C. LaRue urged every student to follow his example and bring in tax stamps. Edison's Birthday Observed A. R. Bitters' electrical classes cele- brated the birth ofThomas Alva Edison by seeing a movie which showed the invention ofthe first electric light bulb. The general electric corporation fur- nished the movie and also old wax rec- ords which were followed by some of Edison's later records the latter, about M inches thick, played for forty min- , utes, twenty minutes on each side.

HE STUDENT COUNCIL and Tattler have been visiting the different high schools in Toledo to observe the behavior of the pupils and plans of the lunch hours. Scott has been found to have closed periods working out very successfully while Waite has a period compelling students to eat in the auditorium or cafeteria, after which they are allowed to roam in the halls. The responsibility of keeping the cafeteria, halls, and auditorium clean is shouldered by the students. This cooperation has been brought about by strict supervision of faculty members, averaging three in every lunch room. ls Woodward thus equipped? Have we this needed supervision? Carelessness has arisen because we are lacking on this one point. The lunch problem is serious. It has even brought to the attention of many people, and the final decision is to be put into effect. Woodward should expel-ment. Why not try closed lunch hours here? Youth, Be Prepared! HE AMBITIO US YOUTHS of today will be the leaders of tomorrow--a tomorrow that will be filled with that inevitable post-war strife. Re- gardless of the victors of this World War II, the picture of the future will not be painted in bright oolors. Being a confident generation we look ahead with the idea of our nation and the allies dictating to the dictators, establishing universal peace, and pre- serving our hard fought-for democracy. The last is our most important aim, to maintain democracy for posterity. May our youth truly realize what severity will accompany these unpredictable events that are doomed to follow this unrneroiful killing---this youthful killing called war. Will this realization inspire us to plan adequately? Our attempts must succeed. To succeed, it will be necessary for America, and all it stands for, to have its roots of stren th planted with such depth so as to insure for ali time the ideals that many an American has heroically died for. Are we strong enough for this task? As tomorrow's leaders, we must prove that we are broad shouldered enough to face the future 'Em Playing NOTHER tussel between our he-man faculty and the rip-roaring Polish Lits is on the pro- gram for Thursday, Febuary 26. The profits will help finance the spring sports program which offers many opportunites for boys who do not participate in varsity football or basketball. Since the expenses of this program are so great, every student should go to help it out. Scott has already stepped out of spring sports because of their embarrassing financial state. Woodward does not wish to follow their example. Turn out in a large number to see this game. Thanks Committees UE RECOGNITION should be bestowed upon those who served on the various Junior Prom committees and more than did their part in presenting a successful J-Hop. Our thanks go to the chairman for his excellent contribution and to his cooperative committee, espescially to the head of the invitation group, who alone, wrote all the invitations by hand. Special credit should also be given to the decorating com- mittee which spent endless hours in completing preparations. Last, but far from least, is the much needed advice rendered by the class advisers, Mrs. Eula Upp and Floyd Lords. Congratulations to each and every member of fahe prom committee. It was truly a hard job well one. We are constantly being urged by our , government to conserve various articles for national defense. I think it is also in line with educational policy to urge Q35 everyone of you to save material of all , kinds whether it is used directly in X national defense or not. vi For years the people of the United States have had an international repu- tation for waste. Our resourses were so rich, our means of manufacturing were so prolific and cheap that it has become almost a universal policy to discard with reckless abandon food, clothing, or articles of machinery. The contents of the garbage can of the average American family would furnish sufficient food for the constant maintenance ofthe lower class Chinese family of similar size. In the matter of clothes we are even more prod- gal. The average American never literally wears out his clothes. They change with the changing styles and the styles change at least twice each year. In the matter of machinery as in clothes the changing styles of automobiles led us to turn in the old and buy the new even if there were thou- sands of miles of good service left in the old car. Perhaps in normal times we are able to make a case for these extravagances, but times are not now normal. We find ourselves in much the same condition as a once rich family that has lost its fortune. We must economize and cut corners and save things that formerely we gave no attention to. Let's be good soldiers in this. If giving up our tires, tin, gasoline, sugar, or anything else is nec- essary to win this war the quicker we do it the quicker the war will be won. Probably you boys and girls will soon be asked to use your school as a center to collect all kinds of waste material such as metal, paper, cloth, etc. When that time comes sieze it as an opportunity to do your bit to help your countryfand that means youj to win this war. ' Star-Spangled Banner For you students who felt a tinge of embarrass- ment because you didn't know the words to the final verse of the National Anthem at the last assembly rogram, the following words are printed for your advantage. Oh, thus be it ever when freemen shall stand Between their loved home and the war's deso- lation: Blest with vict'ry and peace, may the heav'n rescued land Praise the Pow'r that hath made and preserved us a nation. Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just, And this be our mottu: In God is our trust. And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave, O'er the land of the free, and the home of the brave.

It started about a month ago, but it seems like ages. Gnawing, gnawing, until it seems to reach the very core of my brain. I vowed I'd get even- and I did!

She ca m e nearer to the window, where I stood in the shrub- ery. I wasn't good enough to attend the J-Hop with the gang. No, I was considered low brow. She came nearer, nearer.

Here are a few unguarded opinions: Freshman: Grace Mitzki, Makeup is O.K. if you put it on sparingly and not that real red stuff. Sophomore: Jim Thie, I think a girl isn't fully dressed unless she has a little bit nn. Junior: Frances Bialek, Lip rouge is a necessary accessary and any girl of high school age should wear it.

The Bears, winners of ll out of 13 games, and current occupants of second place in the city league, were never threatened in annexing their fourth straight tilt. After a slow third quarterin which the Bears managed a six-five lead, Jack Oads began hitting and the Tigers pulled within four points ofWoodward. The third quarter began with the score 16-12 but from then on the Blue and White pulled away. Seymour, Brent and Wisniewski hit constantly as the Upton Avenue fell hopelessly behind. Irv Wisniewski earned scoring honors with six fielders but it was Bern Sey- mour who stole the show. The sharp- shooting forward brought the crowd to their feet with sparkling one-handed iielders from beyond the foul line. He was runner-up with eight points. Bob Brent with five, Kornowa and Jackson, fourg and Wilson, three, com- prised the point total. Jack Oads led the Tigers with seven tallies. Polar Bears, Fighting Irish To Battle For High Honors The Woodward Polar Bear basket- ball quintet have moved into an un- challenged sedond place spot in the city standings. With but two games left on their schedule the Bears are looking at a possible championship, Ifg the if is, if we beat Waite and Cen- tral, and Central losses to Scott and Woodward. Central has the experience of seven more games played over the Bears, having won 19 out of 20. The Blue and Whites have taken 11 out of 13. i The Woodward lightweights are in first place in their league. Second place is held by the Craftsmen from Macom- ber. Standings to date G.P. W L Pct.

NATIONALS WIN ONE High 610 Shot by Wysocki Includes 190, 209., 211 Games Howard Phipps' bowling squads, the Amerks and the Nats, maintained their hold on third and ninth place respectively by defeating Ottawa Hills thrice and proving themselves the mightier ones over the Cowboys from Libbey. Woodward's American pinners won three grames by forfeit from the Ottawa Hills alley five. Bob Wysocki topped the Amerks with a big 610 for his second 600 of the season. Including games 190, 209, and a smashing 211 closing effort, Bob also gained honors for high sin- gle game. Zientek followed with a 190, 146, and a 205 for a 541 total, while Sylak hit a 508 with high games of 177 and 185. The team three-game total was a 2,093 which was quite high when tak- ing into consideration that only four men made up the Bear team. National Bowlers Libbey, the National League leader, won two and lost one to the Wood- ward Nationals. The second game the Bear pinsters took the Tigers by 76 maples, while the 747 opener and 731 final game proved to be 49 and 47 sticks short. Bob Levee cornered high series with a 488 which included games of 180, 161 and a 147, while Abdelnour cap- tured high single game with 197. The one setback handed Libbey did not drop them from the top position for Waite defeated Macomber a sin- gle game to keep the Mechs in a tie with Libbey National scoring. lst 2nd 3rd 4th G.

CAPTAINS OF BEAR, INDIAN SQUADS PROMISE EXCITING GAME TONIGHT Woodward Captain I'm not saying we'll win and I'm not saying we'll lose, but I can assure you we will be in there scrapin' till the last gun, stated Dave Kornowa, cap- tain of the highly touted Bear quintet. Not to break training rules and when you're in the game to fight with all your heart and might seem to be this five foot eight inch fast breakingforward's idea of a good way to win a game. He credits all the team's success to the superior coaching of Homer Hanham who is not only a coach to these boys but really a rest pal g . Nothing more would like to be had than a city championship, but win or lose these boys will enter the Annual District Tournament with the pep and vigor of previous Blue and White repre- sentatives. This curly headed lad enjoys teaming with the 41-42 squad and be- lieves them to be swell pals. He didn't predict anything but said, We'll be in there fighting for Homer, the team, and the sc ool.' Waite Captain- We don't want last place and we do want to be high in the scholastic basket- ball race so we're out to crush Wood- ward, replied Harry Wright, captain and forward of the Waite Indians. Wright believes they can subdue the Bears not only because they have a com- paratively new team mate named Whit- man, but because they will be battling on familiar hardwood. This blond haired, blue eyed lad towers six feet into the air, is a member of Waite's W club and also plays football and baseball. In his opinion Kornowa and Wis- niewski are the boys to be stopped in the Bear attack and which will prob- ably be the most guarded cagers in the fray. Being captain is a very highly honored position to the East Siders even though they are not at the top of the league. Although handed a drubbing by Central, Bill believes that he and his team mates will redeem themselves by defeating the Blue and White. We've got to beat Woodward, was Wright's last statement. WAITE INDIANS BAR PATH OF BEARS' TITLE, HOPES GOX Woodward Reserves Knock DeVilbiss For Tenth Victory The Woodward Reserve squad took on the DeVilbiss light-weigts on home hardwood last Friday, and enjoyed their tenth victory out of 12 starts with the 19-points margin in a 43-24 final. Woodward's right forward, Payak, out-paced members from both quintets in connecting with nve field markers, and seven fouls out of seven attempts, a total of 17 points. At the half-time, the Bears held the long end of a lopsided 22-6 score, and the DeVilbisss quad faced certain de- feat. In the third and fourth frames, the Tiger machine began to warm up, but not to the extent ofoif setting their 16-point disadvantage from the first and second stanzas. Witt of DeVildiss and Knierim and Miller from Woodward were taken out on personal fouls.

Girls' Gym Enrollment Hits New High in Various Classes The total amount of girls entering the two basketball tournaments is 125, of which 75 are sophomores, juniors and seniors, the remaining 50 consisting of freshmen. The leaders' class, having only juniors and seniors, holds 45 girls. Participating in the bowling class this semester are 545 swimming, 32. Enrollment in the regular gym classes are: Monday, 4129 Tuesday and Thursday, 4145 Wednesday, 401', and Friday, 245. The largest class during the week is second hour Monday with 94 girls. Third hour Wednesday has the small- est with 33 girls. Freshman Yearlings Defeat Tiger Kittens By One Point Woodward's Freshman squad contin- ued their winning ways last Friday by copping an uphill battle from the DeVil. biss yearlings 19-18 on the DeVilbiss court. Both teams started slowly with the Tiger kittens leading 6-5 at halftime. Close to the finish the DeVilbiss crew lead by two points.Then Dick Kellmer, Woodward guard crouched in the mid- dle of the iioor and made a towering shot which split the hoop for the win- ning points. Alex Vertlebeek tallied 6 points for the winnersand was followed by Sey- mour with 5 and Harrison with 4. It seems that most good things come in ones, for Woodward's basketball team anyway. The Bears' wins from Macomber and Libbey were snatched by Just one point. Scott's victory over the Bear cagers was garnered by one point ON BLOCK TONIGHT BULLDOG-IRISH TILT TO DECIDE FATE OF BEARS Tonight the second place Woodward Polar Bears invade the Waite Indians tepee in a game which will decide whether or not the Bears will have a crack at the city championship. As the whistle sounds for the start of the Bear-Brave tilt, another whistle will. blow. The latter will mark the beginning of the. Scott-Central game. l'h1s struggle will find the Bulldogs entertaining the Irish. Last Wednesday DeVilbiss provided the rung for the Irish to step on in order to strengthen their hold on first place. Central turned the Bengals back 52-27. On Friday of the same week the Bears downed DeVi1biss by a 36-25 count to remain in second place. Central has a one-game lead on Woodward but should Scott turn on the heat and win the Bears will go into a tie, providing they manage a win over the Braves. -In the Bears' previous encounter with Waite, the Hanhamites came out a two-point winner. Should the same thing occur tonight, Woodward will be 1n a position for a possible tie should they have wins over the Braves tonight and Central the following Friday. Although the starting lineup for Woodward has not yet been an- nounced it will probably be the same as in previous contests. Game time is at 8:15 with the league-leading reserves playing the preliminary. Intra-Mural Quintets Near Half-Way Mark In Activities Intra-mural teams are nearly at the half way mark in their basketball ac- tivities with no one eager five positive of top positions.

LaRue Monday proved to be a day of re- joicing for not only faculty members, but also various sophomore English classes. The cause for all the merri- ment was the return of Miss Eleanor Murphy, who having taught for only the first five days of the first semes- ter, had been suddenly stricken with appendicitis and confined to her home until this week. In the midst of hand shaking and greetings, Miss Murphy insisted that ner classes felt that she was the sub- stitute instead of the teacher, for her long absence had made them forget her. She related that it was just like September for her since it was nec- essary to become acquainted with her classes again.

SOLD TO STUDENTS Saga In Charge Of Defense Stamp Drive. First Sale Nets 553.90 More than 125 students purchased defense stamps during the first of the campaign, Tuesday, February 17. According to statistics, 353.90 was secured from this sale. Fifteen dol- lars of the total amount was due to the sale of twenty-five cent stamps, and the remainder was sold in ten cent stamps. The highest purchase recorded, which was made by Gloria Oberling, amounted to 55.10. A total of 63 books was also distributed. Due to the insufficiency of twenty- fice cent stamps, the latter was also sold on Wednesday. Tuesday of every week has been selected as the official Defense Stamp Day. Any student or teacher who wishes to purchase stamps may do so at the booth across from the office. Sales will be made before and also after school, during the assembly periods, and during both lunch hours. The sale of the stamps is sponsored by the Saga.

UN T0 OOD ARD T TTLER A LHEEAT F Constantly, Consistently Constructive PLACE l - , CENTRAL Vol. XIV Toledo, Ohio, February 27, 1942 No, 21 ENGLISH GIRL PENS LETTER OF THANKS Yvonne Perrin From London Requests Letters From Pen Pal In a letter to her American Friends et Woodward,a girl from London, Eng- land, stated her appreciation for a Christmas box which she received. Following are parts of the letter: I must write to thank you very much indeed for the lovely presents you sent to England. I went to a party yesterday which was given by the local Air Raid Wardens and received one of your American Junior Red Cross boxes. It contained a green tooth brush, a pretty handkerchief, a green face flannel, a tube of tooth paste and not forgetting a green bar of soap in the shape of a tortoise. Please would one of the scholars at Woodward be my pen friend as it would be nice to hear from you. We are some of the fortunate people in our road who have only lost the windows by blast from the bombs. We have l mst a lot of shops round our way, and I am sorry to say, a good many people we knew were killed by bombs. I am eleven years old and I would very much like a pen friend about my age please. Once again I must thank you very much for your gifts. Yours Sincerely, Yvonne Perrin. Woodward students filled seventy- live Red Cross boxes before Christmas. The appreciation shown by this girl re- pays many times Woodward's contri- butions, and the same appreciation is no doubt felt by every child who re- ceived one of these boxes. The Tattler wishes to express its deepest sympathy to William Rogers and his family upon the death of their mother. William was sports editor of last year's Tattler and is now in the Marines. We also wish to express our sympathy to Gerald Johns upon the death of his mother who passed away February 18. Defense Stamp Sales Drop At the second sale of defense stamps in the school, 330.90 was taken in, which is 3523 less than the amount collected last week. Of this 530.90, 37.50 worth of twenty-five cent stamps and 823.40 worth of ten cent stamps were sold. The Saga is in charge of these sales. Students Wishing To Serve See Toledo Defense Council The best advice I can give young people below military age who want to serve their country, explained Samuel Ericcson, Coordinator of Junior De- fense Programs for the Division of Youth Activities of the Oflice of Civil- ian Defense, is to see members of the Defense Council in your town. Mr. Ericcson expressed his opinion when questioned by many boys and girls throughout the nation as to how they can do the most for National De- fense. He also pointed out that the Youth Defense Auxiliaries will be very glad to receive any new ideas from patriotic boys and girls. The spirit of sincere patriotism that American girls and boys are inspiring, Mr. Ericcson said. We appreciate the loyalty of every young personiin our great country for this fight against the evil forces opposing us across the oceans. 1 Our group here in Woodward has felt that it was time we decided to do our part to help improve the lunch system, which is becoming very critical. For the past week we have been trying out a new system in the noon movies, to clean up the mess which usually remains after each show. But to carry this plan successfully, we need the coopera- tion of you pupils. We're not asking you to do anything difiicultg simply place your refuse in the containers as you go out the door. We think that by now e v e ry o n e should be instilled with the desire to help clear up this situation and save the name of our school. We're ask- ing that each and every one of you cooperate in this manner. The Student Council. Clyde VanTassel Supervises First Air Raid Drill Practice Woodward's first direct experience with actual war activities was begun today with a practice air raid drill at the beginning of the sixth hour, which was under the general supervision of Clyde VanTassel, School Defense Di- rector. Students and teachers were in- formed of rules, regulations and pre- cautions concerning the practice drill over the public address system. The third floor will be completely vacat- ed, and the boys and girls in gym will be given time before the drill to change to street clothes. Of course, the latter will be impossible in case of a real raid, but because this is merely a practice drill, it will be allowed. In all cases, the boys will be lined up two abreast along the south hall on the first and second floors, while the girls will follow suit in the north corridors on the first and second floors. In all cases, both groups will face the near- est exit. Pupils are not to use lock- ers and are to leave all equipment in classrooms. These rules may be changed slight- ly, but the changes will be made known. Feltman, Braatz, Bialecki Doing Advanced Woodwork Robert Feltman, William Braatz, and Donald Bialecki, freshmen in Joy Morhardt's general shop, are working on modern end tables, and book rack, respectively. These boys are only allowed to make this fur- niture after they have completed the required articles which are pin-up lamps, telegraph sets, garden trowels, and wall vases. Twenty of Joy Morhardt's general shop boys are on a clean-up commit- tee which means that they keep their shop clean. The remaining boys are assigned different jobs, such as re- pairing tools. Committee Chooses Band For Annu-al Sophomore Hop Dale Gray and his orchestra were selected by the sophomore orchestra committee to play at the annual Sophrolic. Mr. Gray, a DeVilbiss student, is known throughout Ohio and furnished the music for the well known DeVil- biss Deviltries. A talented vocalist will accompany his 11-piece orchestra. A floor show will be given during the intermission at which time Wood- ward students will perform. Tickets will be on sale this week and may be purchased from any com- mittee member. Don Weber is gen- eral chairman of the dance. INSPECTION TOURS END AT DE VILBISS Delegation Reports Fair On Fourth Lunch Hour Observed in Drive Woodward's lunch hour inspection tour of the various Toledo high schools closed last Tuesday, February 24, when four delegates representing Woodward traveled to DeVilbiss High School. The delegation included Mrs. Marie Ersig, adviser, Mildred Bogdanski, representing the Student Council, and Lucille Foley and Charles Mann from the Tattler staff. ' DeVilbiss's dunch hours mirror Woodward's lunch system in that stu- dents are allowed to eat in the cafe- teria and auditorium, Although the lunch period is not closed, students are not expected to eat in the corridors. However, it was noticed that there were students eat- ing in the halls. No teacher super- vision of the halls was in evidence. Two study halls during the second lunch hour are opened to the overflow from the cafeteria and auditorium. One teacher is present in each of these places to maintain order. The auditorium, after careful in- spection, proved to be superior to Woodward's previous auditorium con- dition before the recent change here made by the Student Council. Wood- ward may never be ashamed of its auditorium if the students continue to respond in the movie as they have this past week. The DeVilbiss floors were far from the goal we are setting for Wood- ward's. This is perhaps due to the lack of student and teacher super- vision in the halls which was not in evidence during either lunch hour. Noise was far from a minimum as the period neared the end. Although DeVilbiss was not per- fect, it did surpass Woodward. Per- haps this was due to the conscientious attitude of the students in feeling that the lunch hour was not a time to frolic, but a time to eat and visit until the bell without undue noise and confusion. Woodward needs a change, what it will be, or how drastic it will be, de- pends on you students. Let's knuckle down and show the faculty it can be done without any monitorial system being set up at Woodward. Whitney Principal Speaks At Assembly in Auditorium Miss Ethel Wooden, principal of Harriet Whitney Vocational School, spoke to freshmen and interested girls in the auditorium Wednesday, February 18. The school offers five courses to sophomore girls, and these are: office p r a c t i c e, retailing, dressmaking, foods, and household management. Junior girls may enroll in cosmotol- ogy. Should a sophomore desire this course she may enroll in other courses then as a junior take up cos- motology. Girls filled out questionnaires Thursday morning, making a choice of a course. Tests will be given in the near future here at Woodward by Miss Wooden or an assistant. Miss Wooden stated that she was very much pleased with the girls be- cause of their interest in the work offered. MRS. HESS FOUND TO BE INTERESTING Lives In Jackson Michigang Has Three Degrees, Husband, Son Certainly one of the most interesting and popular speakers ever to a ear at Woodward was Mrs. Bertha I-lless, who lectured here recently, and just as interesting as here talks is the saga of her life. She has two Masters degrees, both obtained from the University of Michigan, one in public health, and the other in mental hygiene. Also to her credit is a Bache- lor's degree in home economics, obtain- ed from University of Oklahoma, where, incidentally, she was on the faculty for sixteen years. For the past fifteen y e a rs she has done v a r i e d kinds of guidance work with college students, parents,teachers, and high school pupils. For three years she was a full time member ofthe Uni- versity of Michigan faculty, and since then has taught there art time. Ten years ago she served on President Hoo- ver's Whitehouse Committee for Child Health and Protection. In addition to that, for the past two y e ars she has served as special consultant to the Kel- logg Foundation. Just as interesting are the other mem- bers of her family. Her husband, a vo- cational guidance worker, is completing work for his Ph. D. degree, and plans to do personnel work in the army, after obtaining his degree. Her son, a high school senior, last year was the Michigan champion in oration. Mrs. Hess's home is in Jackson, Michigan, but she works through the State Board of Health in Columbus. When questioned about her opinion of Woodward, she replied that it is a tirst rate school, and that it was aplea- sure to be able to speak here. Model Airplanes To Be Used By Naval Department Soon Lawrence Nuber has received infor- mation from the Naval Department that any boy or girl in high school may begin constructing airplane models of solid wood, instead of the light wood and paper which was formerly used. As yet, Mr. Nuber has not received the blueprints from the government, but fighting planes such as bombers and torpedo planes will be made. The scale to be used when making these ?'l0?9l planes is one inch to every six ee . The government requests that ex- treme care and attention be given concerning the details of this work. Three prizes will be awarded to the pupils who make the best models. The Aviation Society, and Theory of Flight classes of which Mr. Nuber is the advisor will also make these models. The Aviation Society is beginning its annual display of models in the display cases on the second floor. New models will be added daily. 8 ll Twelve boys and eight girls attend- ed the Theory of Flight classes, Feb- ruary 19. The students are getting acquainted with the compass, alti- meter and other instruments. Class Plans Gardens Miss Grace Cronk's botany classes are planning war gardens. Material re- lating to gardenin and its various kindred aspects is icing discussed by the pupils. The gardens will be composed of a , variety of vegetables.

The success of these drills depends entirely upon the im- mediate obedience and behavior of each and every student involved. One disobedient person could bring disaster through ignorance of directions when reality actually faces us. Toledo, as Cleveland and Detroit, is s vulnerable point in U.S. defense and is subject to an air raid almost as easily as are the coastal cities. For this reason we must have practise air raids. Strict obedience and explicit following of directions may mean the difference between li e and death. It is wiser to have a good defense and not need it, than to need it and not have it. Consider . U. S. A. Needs EMEMBER PEARL HARBOR! The battle cry of the World War II rises above the loudest clamor of today. We are in a warg a war which must be won in order to save the entire world from tyranny and hate. The priorities list has been increased greatly since the outbreak, and probably will continue to grow larger. These enumerated articles are valuable, and should be preserved. Preserving articles is most necessary, but, the government also needs funds. By buying defense stamps and bonds we will help in the cause more than one can say. High school students as we are, stop and think. Let us consider our country's needs. We must do our share. As citizens, it is our duty and privilege Permit Cleanliness Reign VERY STUDENT IN Woodward should be thoroughly ashamed of himself. Circumstances are pretty bad when our principal has to patrol the corridors during lunch time and pick up papers. This is precisely what he has been doing while able-bodied but evidently feeble-minded boys and girls stand around nonchalantly. Ste s are being taken to completely change the Woodpward lunch system. Unless conditions in the halls improve, it may be very restricted. Eating in the halls will be stopped---there is an excess amount of room in the cafeteria. This means that the freedom so generously given us and of which we so foolishly have taken advan- tage will be impaired. Drastic measures will be and should be enforced when rowdyism, filth, and confusion reach the point that they have attained during the past few months. There is no reason whatsoever for such conditions. Pape LaRue has been more than fair in the past. Why can't we show a little gratitude and a little common decency by cleaning up the lunch periods-- both dirt and noise. If we succeed in accomplishing this, drastic changes will not have to be made. Beware Of Unsats ARCH 5 is the day unsats will be issued to those who are doing failing work. In a previous Tattler editorial, many pupils were led to believe that because they didn't receive an unset, they couldn't receive a failing grade. But this is not true. At the time the unsatis- factories were issued, several may have just es- caped getting one. An unsat serves as a warning of poor work and does not determine the student's grade at the close of the quarter. Remember if you don't get one, it doesn't mean that you cannot receive a failing grade. Woodward Whispers I Glenn Munch astonished his friends by walking down the hall with a girl last week.

F, THE WOODWARD TA'I'I'I.ER BY BEARS, 39 TO 28 Victory Gives Polar Bears Chance For Crack At Cage Title Coach Homer Hanham's Woodward Polar Bears cleared the last hurdle be- fore the Big One with Central next Friday, to determine where the 41-42 title will rest, when they de-toma- hawked the Waite Indians 39-29 in the East Side gym. The opening whistle found the waite zone defense failing to stop the Bear long shots and Woodward lead 15-2 at the quarters end. Irv. Wisniewski was the star in the first frame, netting the major portion of his thirteen markers in the period. Later it was Dave Kornowa who fur- thered the Blue and White cause and as the halftime gun barked, the Bears were on the long end of a 23 to 7 count. This victory placed the North End five within half a game of the league leading Central Irish. Captain Dave Kornowa led the brood in scoring with six fielders, and as many charity tosses for an 18 p oin t to t a 1. Wisniewski followed with 13, Wilson, Brent and Sheline netted two apiece. Seymour and Jackson both gar- nered one. Allin all, the Indians were outscored 13 to 10 from the field, and 13 to 8, at the foul strip. Flegle was Waite's top scorer with eight points. Spring Sports Parade Set To Start Rolling In March Woodward's spring sports program will get under way as soon as possible in the next week or two with the basketball season over. Jack Taylor, Leo Robie, Howard Phipps, George Rohrer, and A.J. Brown will have charge of football, baseball, golf, tennis, and track respectively. Uniforms will be issued to boys going out for football next season and prac- tice will take place two weeks before and two weeks after spring vacation under the guidance of Coach Taylor. Mr.Robie has nothing definiteplanned for baseball. Preparation will begin as soon as basketball is completely taken care of. Golf courses, under the supervision of Mr. Phipps, will begin sometime during the middle of April. Practice will start the latter part of March. We usually don't start tennis until the snow's off the ground, stated Mr. Rohrer. Practice will begin as soon as possible. Some members of last year's team graduated, but Dick Sheline, Don Weber, Don Ruff, Eddie Sloan, and Dick Hawkins still remain to take up where they left oii' last year. At a meeting of Toledo faculty man- agers, April 7 was set as the date for the first track meet of the season, al- though this date may be set ahead a week or two. Inside spring training will begin as soon as basketball has been taken care of, moving outside with favorable weather. SKYROCKETS HERE Robie, Smith Assist Former Woodward Athlete, Sylogowski Boxing, the new sport which has skyrocketed to popularity about Wood- ward, gained new laurels and attention this week by having a class taught for its benefit. Principal C. C. LaRue first noted the boxing interest and sent out a call for all boys who should like a few pointers in the manly art of self defense to re- port at a special meeting in the gym. 35 boys attended, and immediate plans were moved under way to have a box- ing class which would meet after school. Tuesdays and Thursdays of each week were selected as days most appropriate and a few hours after school on these days will be devoted to instructions. Ted Sylogowski, a former Bear ath- lete, who is doing his practice teaching course at Woodward will handle the group. Leo Robie and Art Smith will assist Mr. Sylogowski in organizing and direct- ing the class. Any enthusiast ofboxing may see any of these three men and obtain further information regardingjoining the class. The boys' gym will be the scene of the class's activities for the rest of the season. Woodward, so far, has no represent- ative ln the Y. M. C. A. boys' boxing tournament which is now in session. All other high schools are represented and it may be too late for Woodward to enter a contestant because of its late interest in the fistic sport. Freshmen Take Tight Tilt From Papooses In Overtime One of the tightest games on record was played Friday in Woodward's gym with the Bear Freshmen squeezing out a 14-10 overtime win from the Waite Frosh. The teams fought through four dull quarters, each managing to score eight points. It was the overtime that provided the game's thrills. With each point doubly important the team went all out. Win- dy Windhovel looped in a long shot to give Woodward a 10 to 8lead. However, a desperate Waite goal once again knot- ted the score. Then Seymour hit afoul, Lentz fiipped a beautiful fielder, Sev- mour made another foul and the game was on ice. Sunny Lentz nailed seven points to lead the scoring. He was followed by Seymour with 3, Harrison 1, and Wind- hovel 2. Ex-Woodwardite Bill Fetters was at the helm of the Indians. Dutch Tscherne, Central coach, and Gilhooley, McQuillen, and Skeldon all witnessed the Bear-Indian tilt and were heavily impressed. FRANK GILHOCLEY, CENTRAL CAGE I STAR, EXPECTS BEARS TO BE TOUGH Frank Gil h o ole y, one of Central's crack basketball stars, was interviewed primarily to obtain his opinion of the game tonight. But because of the many other interests and experiences of this 6', 160 pounds, green-eyed athlete, this story will be more personal than other- wise. Well, here goes as to comments on Woodward. He believes that our team will be tough---plenty tough, as he puts it---that our coach, Homer Hanham is one ofthe best g that Seymour, Wis- niewski, and Kornowa are players to watchg that Watson Welever is a very nice fellow , and that McQuillen is the tops in city high school basketball players. One of his acknowledgei character- istics, being his inability to remember names, he nevertheless does all right for himself by personally knowing Charley Gehringer with whom his father played basketball as a professional, which, incidentally is Frankie's ambition, Lou Gehrig, whom he greatly admired, Ted Williams of the Boston Red Sox, and Joe E. Brown, with whom he once shared a roof. Even though sports occupy most of his time, the plays the outfield on the Central baseball team in addition to basketball,J Frankie still finds time to belong to the C-Clan and the Student Council.

INDIANS AMBUSHED BOXING INTEREST CHAMPIONSHIP HOPES GO ON STAKE IN POLAR BEAR-IRISH GAME TONIGHT K CAPACITY CROWD Cubs Retain High Position With Victory Over Indians Waite's Indians made a futile at tempt to check the league-leading Woodward reserves Friday in the Waite gym, and ended up by absorbing a 47-24 shellacking. The Fearful Five were never exerted in hammering the hopeless East Siders to submission. With Long John Payak and Bob Long pouring an avalanche of fieldeis through the hoops Woodward eased into a 17-7 at the thc quarter and 27- 13 at the halftime. The Indians put on a great scoring drive in the third period and managed to score three points and trailed 39-16 when the final quarter began. Coach Weiss then gave his subs free reign until the final whistle. Payak had a great night, banging home 23 points to lead his mates. Others contributing to the point deluge were Long with 13, Seymour six, Eaton two and Miller, Dupont, Scharer each one. Terry lead the losers with five fielders, Strikers Lead Woodward's List Of Girl Bowling Teams After six bowling games the Strikers wound up in first place with five wins and one loss.

AN TICIPATED Homer Hanham The hopes of a city championship for the 1941-42 edition Bear hardwood squad will face a crucial test tonight when they face the Irish from Central in the latters gym. The Bears moved up a half game at the expense of the Indians from Waite last week. Central, the same night, drew their bye. Consequently W o o d w a r d moved a half game nearer the lead. Central is riding the crest of a 21 win streak. Lima, Delphos, and Rossford proved victims of the Irish' fast break. The Bears on the other hand have won 12 and lost two, these losses being to Scott and Central. Tonight a capacity crowd is expected to view one of the most vital games in the history of Toled0's hardwood scramble. Coach Dutch Tscherne will place his hopes of penant in the hands of his big three, Gilhoole , Mo- Quillan, and Hickey. Coach I-Ilomer Hanham, on the other hand has no outstanding stars.

FEE FEVER If you happen not to get a grade in a subject at which you feel your- selfto be at least halfway good, don't heap coals of fire on your teacher's head. You may have been at fault, suffering perhaps from fee fe v er which leaves the victim unconscious of all money matters except those concerned with movies, games, and candy. Students are therefore re- minded that grades will be with held if class fees are not paid. This is the fourth week of the second semester, so rob a bank or break a pig, but pay your fees!

CZARNY, REFUGEE OF POLAND, HERE Wolf Czarny Takes Special Course To Learn More English Enrolled here at Woodward as a special student is Wolf Czarny, twen- ty-seven year old Polish refugee. Wolf 'was a member of the Polish army, and came to Toledo to live with an uncle. He was first discovered by William Rohr, while standing on a street corner, .awaiting a bus, and five weeks ago l came over to Woodward to learn more about the English language. First hour he is a member of Leo Robie's Polish classg second and iifth hours he is taught oral expression and phonetics by Mrs. Dorothy Mathenyg while the remainder of periods, he is enrolled in Mr. Rohr's mechanical drawing class. His journey from Lithuania to Toledo took thirty-three days, not including the four weeks he spent in Moscow waiting for his visa. Four days were spent in Japan, and one in Honolulu, where incidentally, he said he would like very much to live because it is so beautiful. When questioned about what he thought of the United States, he said he was very glad to be able to live in a democracy such as we have. Our principal, C. C. LaRue, Mrs. Matheny, and Mr. Rohr rate high with him, and he is especially grateful to the students in his classes who help him out.

He hopes to comeback to Woodward after the war and he is look- ing forward to the printing of as many if not more, Tattlers. Intending to become a full time in- structor, his spare time is to be spent studying for this work. Mr. Montgomery expressed his re- grets in losing Mr. J ankowski by saying, After I raised him from a pup! In conclusion, Mr. Jankowski reiterated his desire of letters from the kids. FATAQJ' Cleanu rive Next Week KGOVERNING BODIES SEEK SUPPORT OF STUDENTS IN COMING CAMPAIGN Woodward faculty, the Student Council, and the Tattler have banded into one mighty army to help the students battle their common enemy, uncleanliness, which has invaded Woodward. They have selected the week of March 6 to 13 as the period in which every student will be asked to get behind this cleanup drive and help secure a lasting tradition of cleanliness at Woodward High School. This campaign is being run primarily to see if Woodward can be cleaned up without a strict faculty: supervised lunch hour. Principal Reverend Timaee Begins Lenten Series With Speech Reverend Timaee from Apostle's Lutheran Church was the speaker today at the first in a. series of Lent- en talks sponsored by the Junior and Senior Friendship Club. Just those students who are interested are in- vited to attend these assemblies. His subject was on the relationship of youth to present day affairs, and the part played by the church. The club is sponsoring four such speakers. They have asked Father Harrington, Principal of Central High school, to speak on March 13, and Reverend Benedict Williams of Trin- ity Episcopal church, .and Reverend Russell Humbert of Epworth Meth- odist church, to speak on March 19 and March 26, respectively.

He will show slides on the screen pertaining to the work of the service. As his subject will probably include the entire time of the program, no business meeting has been planned. The senior class has also been in- vited to attend the meeting. Mrs. Eula Upp and Floyd Lords are ad- visers of the junior class. LET'S BE CLEAN Office Gets New Machine The Woodward mimeograph ma- chines have been running a regular cycle. The Board of Calucations present- ed the Woodward ofiice with a new ma- chine thst produces ninety copies per minute. The office, in turn, gave their old machine to Miss Grace Cronk who in turn gave her very, very old machine to Joy Mohrhardt. Laltue is anxious to test the students and find, if through their own demo- cratic spirit, they can maintain clean- liness without supervision from the jaculty. With hopes of discovcrin a lunch system which would remedy Wood- ward's faults, students from the Tat- tler and the Student Council were sent to Waite, DeVilbiss, Libbey and Scott to study their methods and means of obtaining a clean school. Each was found superior to Wood- ward. With this result in mind, many of the faculty decided a. strict- er system must be set up. Clean-up week is to prevent the monitorial system, which is present in all four of the visited schools, from being set up at Woodward. The Student Council, under H. F. Wohler and Mrs. Eula Upp, have set an' excellent example in the audi- torium for the second floor lunchers to follow. Since this situation has been publicized in the Tattler, A. J. Brown.and O. M. Thompson, faculty supervisors in the cafeteria during the lunch hours, have noticed an ap- preciable improvement in the cafe- teria. However, the bad condition of the' second floor necessitates some action. At the sophomore class meeting next Tuesday and at the junior class meeting next Thursday, special stu- dent speakers will ask for class sup- port. The Art Klan, under Miss June Anderson, has lent its support by making attractive posters emphasiz- ing clean-up. Dorothea Noble has planned a display with the help of Anne Korecki which will remain in the showcase throughout the week to help remind pupils to clean up. The Tattler and the first year jour- nalism class seeing that support must come from the students have volun- teered their services to the campaign to help clean ufp the second floor. Next week 21 o these students will place themselves at various spots and politely remind students to make cleanliness a tradition. Do we want a closed lunch hour or will we make cleanliness a tradition? no YOUR PART: T. T. A. Appoints Miss Cronk To Visit Dental Dispensary Wednesday, February 25, Miss Grace Cronk, appointed by the Toledo Teach- er's Association, visited the dental dis- pensary and the day nursery. Miss Cronk asserted that the dental dispensary has a very fine stad of den- tists and the very best material and equipment. Supported by the Commu- nity Chest, it has benefited about 60,000 patients, which include children and adults with low income. Approximately eight Woodward stu- dents, which is more than any other school, are sent weekly to the dispen- sary. Any pupils in need of dental care are urged to see Miss Hazel Coy for appointments. :pq- aa ' I , ..,, . z 1 1. ' 1.

HE NEW SYSTEM in the auditorium has proved successful. The cafeteria has shown a great deal of improvement in cleanliness and order. But why can't the halls of the second door show this desirable change? p Mr. LaRue thanked the students for cooperating in making the lunch hours the best they have been in many years. He commented that it was almost perfect--apparently meaning that the condition of the door wasn't up to par. As we have stressed before, containers have been placed at intervals in the halls for the students to use for their waste paper and not to practice suck- er shots for their basketball team. But these con- tainers don't solve all the problems. They have'n't helped in cutting down the dancing and yelling which accompanies both lunch hours. As usual, we ask your cooperation.-Why not? You have everything to gain and nothing to-lose. Among other rewards for your cooperating will be more sanitation for your personal bene t. Let's help! Improve Air Raid Practices AST FRIDAY, Woodward had its first air raid practice. Although the drive proved success- ful, much improvement could be made. Too many students thought it was a time to visit, they failed to realize the importance and significance of the practice. The students also crowded together instead of standing apart, as instructed. Why don't students follow directions, especially for such things as are for their own benefit? Time is taken during classes to acquaint the students with the positions they are to take in case of an air raid, therefore, it is for their own good. Let's hope that the future air raid practices will go like clockwork, and everyone abide by the directions given. Only with unity can success be attained. Boost Defense Stamp Sales HE SALE of defense stamps started with a big ban . Practically every person in Woodward dug deep in his pocket and helped Uncle Sam with his contribution. Then, somehow, the sales slackened and dropped off sickeningly. They have remained at a low level ever since. Have our students suddenly decided that buying defense stamps is aworthless gesture? Have they lost their patriot's zeal so suddenly? War is a long and arduous thing as a rule. The people of a nation at war must not stop their ef- forts to help for a second. If they did stop, that would spell tragedy 'for their country. We must not stop our contributions! Little as they may be, compared to the huge sums our coun- ' try needs, they do heap! Come on, Woodward, Iet's get up to the peak o perfection as patriots. Let's buy more defense stamps and show the Japs that the land of the red, white, and blue is aland united and strong! Sophrolic Needs Cooperation NCE AGAIN the sophomore class will under- take the sgonsoring of its annual Sophrol.xc. Being uni ed in such a large group is a new experience for these sophomores, but much can be expected from this conscientious group. This being their drst responsibility of this kind, they naturally want it t m be successful. Only with the cooperation of the student body will this be possible. The various committees are doing their part in planning this afairg it is the duty of you students to make the most of it. Plan to attend the Sophrolic for an enjoyable evening. Support the sophomores' success. I.. . PRINCIPAL POINTS' ' ,, of the Tattler Staff and the Student Council have visited all the public high schools in Toledo to observe the con X v . 'W , f duct of the pupils at the lunch periods. ' ,E It is rather disturbing to dnd that we . ' do not compare very favorably with any W' of them. Their halls and cafeterias were not only cleaner but quieter than ours. It is true that in some of them there was more of teacher supervision than we have but the point is that no matter bow obtained, the re- sults were better. Paper and scraps of lunch on our doors at any time make a bad impression on one. Every person in the building has heard repeatedly the plea, Help Keep Woodward Clean. To me the attitude of dedance taken by the pupils is worse than filth. The pupil who drops his lunch paper or part of his lunch on the door is showing just as plainly as if he were shouting it over the P.A. system, I don't want to be a good citizen g I don't want to co-operate with others : I don't want to have a clean building to work in , I don't care what others may think or want, I'm going to satisfy my own selfish ideas about how things are to be run. Many good suggestions have been given about how to clean up the halls, cafeteria and auditori- um during the lunch periods, but all of them run, more or less, to a type of policing. Now policing is all right if it is done by the members of the organ- ization themselves, and the less we are compelled to have the better off everyone is. I would like to think of a time when we could throw out all restrictions about the place where lunch could be eaten and be conddent that every pupil was so responsible that not one scrap of paper or one crumb of lunch would be left on the door. To reach this ideal every home room in school should constantly work on the problem of our personal responsibilities in a democratic group. When an active majority of the group is convinced that one of the big things in our school life is to be clean, cleanliness will become a tradition and no one would dare to violate it. Our keeping clean then is a matter of education, education carried to the point that action is nec- essary to satisfy what we have learned. Let's make cleanliness a tradition. Dizzy Definitions It is o. k. to chew gum in class as long as you put it under the seat so the next person may en- joy it. Don't rush to class. When you get there your're all out of breath and besides your teacher prob- ably won't appreciate your efforts. When you go to a game, sit on the opposite side and then cheer for your team . This is bound to gain you popularity. Don't bother to do your homework. Your're so smart that education can't teach you any thing anyway. Why keep up your grade? If you don't graduate when you're a senior, you can always find a job as a ditch digger. Don't follow directions. This becomes monoton- ous, and its fun to be different. If your class is especially boring you can catch up on that extra sleep you need, and stay out later that night. If you want to amuse yourself in class, shoot spit balls. It may mess up the door, but after all, why do we have a janitor? If your eating lunch, don't bother to throwwaste in the papper containers. This takes extra energy no one thanks you for. Why act as a good citizen during school hours? If you're loud and boisterous you're bound to at- tract attention. Cat Nips Holy Smokes! It's 8:30 a.m. andl have to have a feature story finished by 9 and I don't know what to write. I guess I'll zip around the halls and see if I can dnd an idea laying around some place. Well, there's Dois Schoonmaker trying to get a book out of the bottom of locker 1l24, which if you've ever seen locker 1124, is impossible. Whoops! I should have warned her, but its too late now, she's buried. Well! Molly Flaherty and Gerald Baldwin together again. There's a woosome twosome. I just heard Alfonso Philop and George Skaff while speaking of Woodward woman say, We like 'em all. O. K. girls, now you take over. Here comes Donna Clark and Frankie Piasecki again. They make a cute couple, don't they? ' There goes Mr. Thomae with a girl who looks all excited. I'll bet he's just ask her to ride his horse Sunday morning. He says that to all the girls. Imagine that! My snooping brought results but curiosity killed the cat. Bang! Bang! I'm dead. ,. . Military Molls According to a proclamation of Congress the Draft Bill for Women has been passed. Oh me! What will the Woodward femnes do? We know very well none will disclose their true age. Some want to be older and others younger. Teachers long past 45 will be clamering to join the defense unit. Horrers--every girl will have to be weighed in. Another war will then be declared. What will hap- pen when the well-dressed girl slips into her uni- forms, is another thing. The opposite sex doesn't go for uniforms like the feminine ender goes. Signs of stray curlers, mudpacis, and make-u will predominate in the early line-up. Barracks will not be so spick and span as the men's arm . Extra rooms will have to be added to hold excesshaggage such as magazines, candy boxes' and other senti- mental nothings. Then too, there will be the ever- present draft dodgers who would appeal to the local draft board because the heavy schedule would be fatal to their figures. If we're gonna win the war, we had better keep Woodward women out of armed forces and into arms. Tragic Teens Poor little Nell, bashful and shy, Is uncertain how to get a guy. He's a blind date prospect, everyone knows, His topic is Me with whomever he goes. Pint-sized, tousle-haired, and barely fourteen, Her antics are surely not those of a queen. He's the world's greatest lover, so they all say, But when the girls see him, they go the other way. She's a demon dater with a fatal glance, A So the boys overlook her while attending adance. How to win the female and make her care, Is the only conversation poor John can share. Too young for beaus, a juvenile terror, Its been rumored 'round, the boys can't bear her.

Well, there is a rumor going around that the awful odor that e s c a p e s through the keyhole comes from a dead body lying on the door. Yep, and that ain't all!

It was a close, well-fought affair, with the squads deadlocked nine-to-nine at the half. The team's leading scorer, Bob Harrison, then began combing the hoop and Woodward gradually pulled away. Bob Harrison lead the lil' Bears with 10 points. If Central should defeat the league leading: Scott Frosh, then Woodward and Central would be tied for sec- ond place. SUPPORT CAMPAIGN Senior Boys Combine With Freshmen In Gym Classes Senior and freshmen gym classes have been combined so that the boys may h-ive three days of active physical gducaiion instead of the previous two a s. Xlthough this makes the classes rather large, all obstacles have been overcome by giving the seniors one half of the gym iioor and the freshmen the other half. The challenging ofthe cham- pionship senior team by the top fresh- men team at whatever sp wrt occupies the season is the factor that made this new program the success thatit is. Besides the three days of active phys- ical education the freshmen go every Monday to a hygiene class. Don Fisher is instructor of the hygiene classes. Standings Of Three Teams Sponsored by the Tattler and opened by Marilyn Schoonmaker, the first special mass-meeting of this year at Woodward celebrated the high-stand- ing basketball teams of three catagor- ies here, the Freshmen, Lightweights, and the Varsity teams. John Phillips, sports editor, intro- duced Joe Dence, equipment manager, who introduced t h e second-place Freshman team that came through with nine triumphs to three defeats. With Bob Harisson high point man of the season for them, the Frosh Eve made an average win of 25 to 21. The active coach, Watson Welever, was absent. The lightweight coach, Wilson Weis, was introduced next, and he announced that his men scored 532 points through- out the season against 336 points of the opponents, giving them first place in the city league, they lost only two games. Homer Hanham was then introduced. Mr. Hanham praised the student sup- port, and stated that it was their backing that led his quintet to it's present position on top of the once- dreaded Central live and thus to first place in the city race. Those 63 points his boys chalked up against the Irish exceeded any former score their disad- vantage. The team and not the individ- ual was responsible for the 582 markers accounted for this season, Mr.Hanham remarked as he informed the students that only 463 points were scored against them.

Woodward Reserves Pound Out A Victory Over Central Woodward's Reserves closed a high- ly successful season in a highly success ful manner by pounding out a 6294 victory over the Central seconds last Friday in the Irish gym. The banner quintet which gaveWood- ward 12 out of 14 victories made its last appearance a memorable one by completely overwhelming the game Irish team. The new champs began slowly but gradually picked up momentum. They led 12-6 at the quater, 24-12 at halftime and 35-20 at the the third quarter. Payak grabbed off 23 markers to lead the fast break exponents. He was followed by Long with 15 points, Miller, Knierem, DuPont, Seymour, each nailed two points to further the cause. Kronbach lead Central with ten points to his credit. WE NEED YOUR COOPERATION Teams Tie For First Place In Inter-Mural Basketball Although the scheduled games have all been played in the intra- mural basketball race, one extra struggle will be fought to settle the dispute for first place between the Polish Lits and the Americans. Holding a close third place are the Rens, thanks to the drubbing they handed the game Adams Town- ship five on February 25. The freshman All Stars tripped the Printers on March 2, deadlocking them with the North Enders for the fourth spot. With a loss on the lat- ter date to the powerful Polish Lits. the Auto Mechanics dropped to sixth position. The Adams Township quintet, al- though in there fighting every game, were humbled to position number seven in the league. In the undisputed cellar position is the eighth-place Print Shop Cagers. This winds up intra-mural basketball except for the play-off for first place. KEEP WOODWARD CLEAN Game Hi-Lites Two championships in three years -that is Coach Hanham's record. Woodward is now in the lead in bas- ketball. The battle for seats almost equaled the battle for the championship, as swarms of people poured into the Irish gym.

These se- niors saw their last of battle with flying colors: Kornowa, Seymour. Brent, Jackson, Goliembiewski and Wilson.

Seymour Nail 50 Points Over 1000 thrill mad spectators jam- med the Central gym to overflow Fri- day night and saw the Woodward Polar Bears clinch at least a share of the title by topping a gallant Central five 63-51. The ushers and roped oh' sections failed to stem the human tide and the game began with spectators sitting on the floor, in the aisles, on the windows, and in every possible space. The game itself was fast and rough in keeping with the mood of the assem- bled crowd Wisniewski hit for a beau- tiful fielder and Seymour dropped in a charity toss to give the Bears a three point lead. Then Skeldon hit two iielders to give Central the only lead they enjoyed during the game. Wisniew- ski constantly brought wild cheers from Woodwardites as he dropped in amazingnltrick shots from all over the court. eroic work by Skeldon and McQuillen kept the Irish up there and the quarter ended 16-14 Woodward. The second quarter was even hotter than the first with the Bears just man- aging to stay ahead. Close guardin and reckless work off the backboard had cost Bob McQuillen and Jack Wil- son three fouls apiece when the half- time gun barked over the uproarious din showing Woodward 29, Central 26. Fired by pep talks and riotious cheer- ing the teams squared off in the second half. About mid-way in the third stanze both Wilson and McQuillen left the game on personal fouls.

Kornowa, Seymour, and Wisniewski kept burning up the boards with beautiful shots and excellent floor-work It was 45-41 when the final stretch opened and from then on the Irish be- gan to drop. Jackson and Seymour had intermittent hot streaks to bolster the Bear lead. In an eifort to close the gap, Dutch Tscherne rushed in replacements, but Woodward would not be denied and wound up 63-51 and in first place. Wisniewski, Seymour and Kornowa collected 50 points all told. Wiz earned top honors with 20 points to his credit. Kornowa and Seymour nailed 15 points each.The former was deadly at the foul line hitting seven out ol nine attempts. Jackson collected nine points, Wilson two and Brent two.

He speaks eight differ- ent languagcs, among which are French, English, Italian, German, and he is now studying Spanish. After spending ten years as a newspaper reporter in Philadelphia and working in an advertising busi- ness, he developed his interest in a musical career. When asked if he liked swing mu- sic, Mr. Eddy asserted, Certainly! There is a time and place for all music. He thought when at a dance one would not expect to struggle through a difficult operatic aria, nor would a gay, fast piece be appropri- ate for a church ceremony. Commenting on his acquaintance with Jeannette MacDonald, with whom he co-stars frequently, he stat- ed that her acting ability, singing and beauty were magnificent. He described his hobby as Making mud pies out of clay. Seriously, he has shown an interest in amateur sculpturing during the last three or four years. Although he didn't mention it, Mr. Eddy was awarded sixth place in a poll conducted by Feg Murray, of Seein' Stars fame, to determine the most popular stars of 19411 He has a concert tour schedule which takes him to 25 cities.

VERY SUCCESSFUL Slight Misunderstandingg Meeting To Be Held For Discussion The Air Raid Drill held last Friday during sixth hour was successful in its main purpose, to show both students and teachers where to go and how to get there. It was believed that the students would be able to stay near the interior court windows as a bomb concussion would not shatter them but now it may be to their advanage to use the end halls. Other schools have been sitting down during these precaution air raids but Woodward will not do this unless there is an actual raid. Then pupils will lay down. For this reason students are in- structed to stand shoulder to shoul- der and arm's length apart so there will be sufficient room. After the raid several people did not understand or follow their in- structions so a teachers meeting will be held this week to discuss and clar- ify instructions. The purpose of Woodward High School is not to protect us from a bomb dropped on us but from one dropped near us. Clyde V. Van Tassel Defence Director stated, If there had been an actual raid, we would have been quite safe. D0 YOUR PART!

SOPHOMORES ARE DOTTY, WOTTY, T It is advisable that all sophomores read no further in this article. The re- mainder ofthe student body doesn't have to continue, either. This piece of literature might come under the heading of an interview, then again it might not, mostly might not. For the sake of those who may still be interested, which is doubtful, it con- cerns Dotty and Wotty tMiss Dorothy Pasch and Watson Welever to youl, the mama and papa of the sophomore class. When asked how they like advising the sophomore class, Dotty and Wotty both chimed in at the same time with Why those punks are soo-o fthe re- mainder of the sentence is censoredl. At this point your roving reporter thought it best that the subiect ble changed so Wotty was asked why Fri- day the 13th was set for the date of the Soph Frolic Why I knowd all da ALL BRATS, SAY O POOR REPORTER so dat's why we picked dat date. We don't want nothin' to turn out right for those tahemj brats, added Dotty. Isn't there anything good about the sophomore class? ventured the half-scared-to-death r e p o rte r. One loud No chorused by both advisers answered the question fully. Well, maybe you could give me a hint concerning the pet peeves you have for the sophomores, asked the reporter, getting bolder and bolder by the minute. Oh sure, we kin tell you plenty of stuff like dat dere, replied Wotty. ' At this time the words were flowing out of the mouths of both mama and papa so fast that it was impossible for the poor reporter to get a word in side- ways. The bang of the door, slammed by the reporter, did not interrupt the fury ,that still raged. CHOSEN TO PLAY FOR AFFAIR The fourteenth annual S o p h rol i c sponsored by the sophomore class of Woodward high school will be held in the girls gym from 8 to 11 tonight.

Keep Working For Cleaner Halls ORTHE PAST WEEK students working for the T attl e r have been guarding the condi- tion of the halls during lunch hours. If some refuse was dropped on the lioor, these kids, with a kind rebuke, picked it up. The visits to other high schools were a revelation to our visiting students. But Woodward's halls, too, can be clean without sacrificing sociability. Stu- dents in these schools were enjoying themselves, without noise and confusion reigning supreme. Let us, too, strive for a more human lunch period. When eating in the cafeteria, in the auditorium, andin the halls, avoid unnecessary noise. Use con- tainers for refuse. Woodward too can have model lunch hours. Let's make our's perfect! Shine Tonight Sophs HE SOPHROLIC GIVES you a fine opportunity to shine as an agreeable well-bred Woodward- ite.

Tonight at the Sophrolic get in the swing of good manners! It is easy--just as easy as swinging to Dale Gray's music--and then watch your popularity rock- et skyward! Be At Tournament LTHOUGH A SCHOOL is an institution for learning it is very doubtful whether it could maintain a very high degree of morale with- out a sport program. A team itself would be of low morale if it were not for the spectators, that is the followers, the cheering section, the people who bolster the spirit of a team to victory. The above paragraph was proven correct and even more so when Woodward defeated Central in one of the most important games of the season. As before credit was given to the team playing the game but if it were not for its loyal followers the lade headlines may have read otherwise. Now that the high school league games are over, the tournament is in session and the team will go out on the university Heldhouse iioor and do their part with every ounce of strength. Therefore it is the duty of every student to again help win the game. ' So keep the team fighting! Q Woodward Whispers l Hi'ya sophomores.

When you arrive at the studio you are confront- ed by Miss Annie Wetterman, Macs private sec- retary, and Miss Grace Cronk,the oliicial bouncer, who tells you to wait a moment for elsel for the dancing instructor to finish off another victim. Then your turn comes. You listen quietly 1 you have to, there's a gag in your mouth! to directions... You begin by raising your right foot ..... now you raise your left foot ..... now you pick yourself up and begin all over again. As time drags on, you have progressed enough to try the Conga. Clarence Ball accompanies your rythmic kicks on the pianoforte, Watson Welever assists on his grindorgan, and Miss Hazel Coy plays the mandolin. You swing to starboard and sway to leeward, until the aforesaid bouncer, with her own little one, two, three kick, quietly extricates the future Fred Astaire from the room. .mmmmi-1 Sophomore Skit Sally Smith accepted Singing Sam's suggestion to swing at the Sophrolic. Sam saved his spending cents successfully for sometime so he could spend it on Sally. Sam called for Sally at six. Sally's sisters sought to scrape the saucers so she could swish into her sweater and skirt. Sam suddenly decided that she should scurry. So soon two sprightly sophomores arrived at the swing session. So sorry, she caused a sound of silly smirking. She was surprised to see she still wore her slippers. mmm..- Faculty Fiction Wouldn't it be wonderful if the following were true? Miss Grifin--allowed more gum-chewing in class. Miss Tippett--gave fewer tests. Mr. Crouse--told less fish stories. Mr. Johnson--raised another mustache. Mr. Thomae-was less playful. Miss Kellogg--never made a resolution. Mr. Vorderburg-remembered he was once a boy. Mrs. Leu-taught less shorthand and told more stories. Mrs. Crouse--gave less unsats.

The game was never close until the final quarter for the Bear couldn't hit with any success. The Jackson Five with Smith, state high hurdle champ, leading the way ran up the score on the amazed Blue and White. At one point in the contest the score was 15-2 Jackson. At halftime Jackson still led 22-17. In the second period the Bears warmed up and Kornowa was unstopable as he wrested away the lead. In the final minute of play Seymour dropped in a long shot from the side to provide the margin of victory. Captain Dave Kornowa showed his mates the way by clipping 16 points. Seymour managed six, Wisniewski,twO Wilson three, Jackson one, and Brent one. Smith topped the losers. SUPPORT CAMPAIGN Tigers Humble Nat Keglers Two Games In Three Starts The National bowling squad handed one setback to the highly touted De- Vilbiss pinners. A 2210 was kegged by the Nats while the Tigers tapped the maple for a 2241 which p oved to be tall enough in the first two tilts. It was the middle game that proved to be the exciting one, although it was dropped by but four pins. Games of 729, 743, and 738 were shot by the Bears, The scores of the middle game could have and should have read different for going into the last frame the Upton five were one mark down. But marks by Managhan and Bonkowski were not enough to cope with the DeVilbiss squad. A 465 series was tops for the Nats. which was rolled by Skeeter Bonkow- ski. This series included games of 183, 149, and a 133 closing effort. The 183 opener also proved to be high individu- al game. Bob Levee held second series with a 459 while Managhan rolled a 167 for runner up single effort. Petree was high for DeVilbiss with a 547 series. Individual scoring: 1st 2nd 3d Total G.

Facts Of Self To Reporter SHOJAPIIGJEWIN If you see a handsome, brown eyed, brown haired teacher strolling around school with an expanded chest, you will immediatly know it is Wilson Weis. The reason for this current bit of happiness is the fact that Mr. Weis has just coached the '41-'42 reserve squad to the city championship. Before his one year coaching job at Wood- ward, he trained the Rossford light- weights who won 13 in 13 starts. Coach, as he is called by his boys, graduated from Elmore high school, and attended Miami University, where he earned his B. S. and obtained an M. A. from the University of Michigan. As can be expected, our star faculty forward played at this cager sport in his high school days. Having no favorites, he believes the glory of the championship should go evenly divided to each and every mem- ber ofthe squad. Blue and white are his favorite colors, Woodward his favor- ite school, and he has been married a year and a half. That is a favorite, too, When asked how it feels to be the coach of a championship team, Mr. Weis modestly said, All I can say is, I'm very fortunate to have stepped in at the time when we had such a fine bunch of players. KEEP WOODWARD CLEAN Faculty Downs Polish Lits With Final Score Of 35-23 The faculty outlasted the Polish Lits February 26 during the assembly period in a game which had all the earmarks of a professional cage struggle.The final score was 35-23. Weis broke the ic: for faculty with a foul shot. This charity toss was follow- ed up by a iieilder banged home on a hook shot by Weis again. The Lits then went ahead on fielders by Koza- kowski, Blachowski, and Bielski to lead 7-5 at the quarter and 14-13 at halftime. The final two stanzas saw the faculty begin to pull away from the faltering Lits with several b a s k e t s by Doc Welever who was high point man for either equad with 10 markers. Two buckets for Ted Szelagowski and as many for Weis, Robie, and Welever in the second half proved enough for the teachers to hold their lead through the rest of the tilt. Top scoring honors for the Lit s was divided among Zychowicz and Al B 1 a- chowski w ith six markers apiece. In- cidentally, the Lits only scored five buckets to the faculties 12 during the last half. Dave Kornowa and Bern Seymour were the extra men in white with Dan- ny Jackson and Bob Brent holding down the scorekeeper and ti-ner posi- tions, respectively. The proceeds from this game will be turned over to the athlectic department for the furthering of the spring sports program.

It was a typical Woodward-Libbey contest with the Cowboys leading three. fourths of the way. The game was a rough battle, with Wizniewski and Wilson of Woodward, and Vinger and Henning of Libbey all fouling out. The Cowboys led 8-4 at the quarter, and 17. 14 at the half. In the third quarter Wisniewski was forced out and Wilson took center. He played magnificently connecting fo r two shots in a row, before four person- als forced him out. With the teams tallest men out, the Bears were up against it. They switched hand fighting Bern Seymour to center, inserted Bobby Brent at forward, and prcfieeeded to battle Libbey to a stand- sti . The Blue and White led 25-19 at the quarter, but Libbey came roaring back. With a minute to play, the Cowboys led 27-26. Then Syl Golembiewski hit a charity toss to even the count, and Bob Brent hit a beautiful long shot, exploding the ball game. Both Brent and Wilson rate praise, but it was Bern Seymour whose great defensive skill and sparkling shots showed his teammates the way. He led the Bears scoring with 10 points. Wilson had five, Kornowa four, Brent three, Jackson four, Wisniewski two, and Golembiewski One. Rol Henning of Libbey collected 21 points. Other games on the card found De- Vilbiss topping Sylvania and Central beating Waite.

Clark, head of the extra- curricular activities, spent March 3, 4, and 5, serving on the Science Sub- ject committee for the evaluation of Waite. Here are some of the comments made by Mr. Clark: The three things the standpoint cleanliness of conduct in the and the cafe- which stood out from of the students were halls and lockers, the halls, the auditorium teria, and the conduct of classes at the end of class periods. The clean lockers and halls may partially have been due to the knowl- edge that they were having an in- spection and the fact that all eating is done in four short lunch periods. No shouting, whistling or running was carried on in the halls or cafe- teria. Five minutes before classes are dismissed, a warning bell is rung. This gives the teacher time to make assignments. Since these comments seem so fav- orable to Waite, Mr. Clark suggested that perhaps Woodward can follow their example and tone down a bit. Woodward is to be evaluated in the near future. BUCKLE nowN Woodward Girls In Junior Membership Day Program Joan Gigliotti, Lois McCown, and Betty Lica are the three students chosen to represent Woodward to sing in the chorus at the city-wide Junior Membership Day program at the Y W C A on March 22 from 3:00 to 5:00. DRILL HELD DURING B SCHEDULE THURS. Miss Coy's Sixth Hour Class Serves As First Aid Nurses Yesterday, the second air raid prac- tice was held during the B schedule. It was held then so as to give more time to work out the details. Teach- ers were given permanent stations and the students were instructed as to the positions they were to take. All were reminded not to rush but to go quietly and calmly. They were also told to stand far enough apart so that during a real air raid they would have enough room to lie down. Miss Hazel Coy, school nurse, is going to have her sixth hour home nursing girls serve for first aid dur- ing the drills. This class includes Betty Ackerman, Sylvia Bielski, Mary Bueter, Sadie Douglas, Thelma Har- ter, Alice Kanic, Hyacinth Kwiatkow- ski, Lois Ann Ley, Josephine Lempke, Betty Lica, Gloria Lindley, Jean Mc- Farland, Christine Lewandowski, Phyllis Wolvertin, Dorothy Owczar- zak, Eleanor Rucki, Lois Roth, Pa- tricia Skiver, Stella Smolinski, Dorothy Turski, Jeanne Velker, and Florence Widlund. These girls will be distinguished by red arm bands with g a. white cross. First aid kits will be kept in the home rooms of Miss Blanche Hazel- ton, Don Fisher, and Miss Hazel Coy. Money for the kits has been appropri- ated by the Board of Education. BUCKLE DOWN Red Cross Furnishes Funds For U. S. O. Projects, Favors Under the organized supervision of the Red Cross, Woodward is doing its share toward making the boys in mili- tary camp happy. :Projects are being conducted by various classes which will contribute something toward occu- pying the leisure time of the armed forces. S. B. Crouse's boys in the woodshop are going to make ping-pong tables for the U. S. O. Miss Angela Abair's class is making favors for the boys. The sew- ing classes are making bedside bags in which personal articles will be kept. The Red Cross is furnishing the funds that make these projects possible. Mrs. Mary O'Brien, who has charge of all this work, stated that a civilian's personal contact with some object that will help win the war gives them a feeling of supreme satisfaction and thus bolsters morale.

Tests for office practice and retail- ing were given on Tuesday. Dress- making, foods, household manage- ment and cosmetology tests were given on Thursday. Thirty-five girls signed for office practice, 10 for re- tailing, 10 for dressmaking, 8 for foods, 5 for household management, and 5 for cosmetology.

WE NEED YOUR COOPERATION Sgt. Merle Gladieux Proves Interesting Speaker Here I really believe they will dro a few bombs on Toledo, stated Sgt. Merle Gladieux, when he spoke to the sophomore class on civilian de- fense last Tuesday, March 10, during the assembly period. He took an imaginary trip through Ohio, point- ing out the places likely to be bombed. Other points brought out in his speech were the important jobs that each and everyone has in this civilian defense. Another interesting item was that 17 per cent of the people who have app ied for civilian defense have police records. KEEP OODW RD CLE . 1 , ,ii-?

Father Harrington, the second in the series of Lenten speakers, spoke on Lent and the Spirit Of Sacrifice, during the assembly period. Some of the reasons for sacrificing things for Lent, Father Harrington said, were that everyone had at sometime committed sin, and, a body must be refused something to check it. The Lenten speakers are invited to attend Woodward by the Junior and Senior Friendship Club, advised by Mrs. Dorothy Matheny.

LOCKER CLEAN-UP TO END CAMPAIGN Discarded Waste Paper To Be Collected For Red Cross To close the clean-up campaign be- fore spring vacaticn, next Friday all the students of Woodward will have an op- portunity to clean their lockers during a general assembly period. Every student will be asked to save discarded paper which will be turned over to Mrs. Mary O'Brien and her Red Cross workers. Hows-ver, no wrinkled paper will be accepted. A system of placing a small red cross on every tenth locker will designate to the owner of it which student will be responsible for collecting the waste paper in each section up to the next marked locker. The student collectors on the first fioor will bring all paper to the Tattler office, room 122. On the second floor, it will be collected in room 229. Room 314 will be av a i 1 a ble to third floor col- lectors. Students from the every day living classes and also from Miss Mary Boyles' room will assist in the stacking and tying of the paper. 'Ihe results of the first week of the clean-up campaign were successful, but the last few days showed room for im- provement. n t il the beginning of spring vacation, there will be a few Tattler students stationed in the halls to encourage cleanliness. Adams Township Students To Have Choice Of Schools Charles C. LaRue, E. L. Bowsher superintendent of schools, M e ri t t Nuats, principal of DeVilbiss, and Harold Williams, principal of Libbey, met with L. H. Elmer and William Gravius, president and clerk, respec- tively, of the Adams Township school board, to decide which high schools the township students will attend. Due to the decrease in the enrollment of Toledo high schools, these eighth graders will be allowed to go to any school they choose, but will be encour- aged to go to Woodward or Libbey. Since DeVilbiss is still overcrowded, the students will be discouraged from going there. Students who have already started at Woodward, that is the sophomores, juniors, and seniors of next year, will be required to finish here. McMurray's Theater Guild Formedg Officers Chosen A new clu-b called The McMurra 's Theater Guild was formed Tuesdyay in David McMurray's third hour soph- omore class. The ofiicers chosen are: Harold McFarland, presidentg David Wynn, vice president, Marjorie War- ren, secretaryg and Harold Weckerlin, treasurer. It will be held every Friday.

Mrs. Marie Ersig Advlnrl' ' ' ' 'ni Hugh Montgomery Support Spring I Sports Program HE ARRIVAL of Spring announces the oom- ing of the spring sports season. After a fair- ly successful football season and a highly lauded basketball season, we should look forward to making our spring sports program just as outstanding. This cannot be done,however, with- out the definite cooperation of the students in addition to their enthusiasm towards the various teams and sports. This cooperation does not per- tain to a few students but to the entire school, as well, faculty included. If our teams know that they have the whole hearted support of the en- tire school, we can depend upona successful spring season. Continue Cleanliness Drive HE FIRST WEEK of the clean up campaign was highly successful, that is with the exception of the last two days. In the first day it egan to look as if the stu- dents of Woodward were finally waking up. The second day could have stood a slight improvement, and after the third day the students became entire- ly lax on their efforts toward cleanliness. The first five days proved, however, that the students are capable of keeping the halls free of all refuse. When Principal LaRue viewed the results, he commended the students on their suc- cess. This campaign daes not terminate until March 27, when all students will be given the opportunity to clean their lockers. However, this does not neces- sarily mean that cleanliness should end. We should keep up our efforts. Improve Air Raid Drills HE RESULTS of the air raid drill last Thurs- day, March 12, were much improved over the initial drill. However, there is still much room for improvement. lt seems to be the case in every drill we attempt that we cannot fully impress the students of the necessity of silence. As soon as the alarm rang, students thought this was the signal for talking and immediately they proceeded to discuss the latest fashions and the basketball games with their neighbors. The students are not aware of the seriousness of a drill of this kind. Perhaps there will never be the necessity ofan air raid drill. Still this does not permit students to take it for means of amuse- ment. Remember, the slogan It is better to have a good defense and not need it, than to need it and not have it, applies to war time activities, which includes air raid drills.

One group such as the Nazis, the Facist and the Japanese are imbued with the phil- osophy of the state supreme over allg the individual does not count. Mothers in Germany Italy and Ja- pan are expected to raise their sons for service in the stateg the children themlves are taught that the most heroic thing in life is to forget self, and live and die for their father land. The philosophy of the ,democratic countries is directly opposed to this. Here we believe that the individual is important: that the state exists for one purpose and one purpose only, the enrichment of the lives and opportunities for its members. The teachings of Christ are just that. Time after time in his short ministry he strove to con- vince the people that the individual, no matter how humble, is eminently worthwhile. One of His most moving parables, that of The Prodigal Son proves this. Previous to this He had related stories of the joy of the return of the lost coin, then of the sheep that strayed away and was foundg but these were as nothing compared to the joy occa- sioned by the son's return to his father's house. This is a climax to show the immeasurable worth of the soul of just one individual. No people who allow themselves to be submerged in a blind mass subservient to a blind leadership can understand this philosophy. For this reason one of Hitler's first moves was to attempt to de- stroy the Christian Church. When his final historic chapter is written this will be pointed out as his most vital mistake. Christ's exaltation of mankind's in di v i d u a l worth was not new but his teaching was so clear and so convincing that it will never perish. ,.il..l. i My Da V By Ellie Roosieveltie Today, as usual, I traveled,I traveled and traveled and traveled but I didn't get nowhere.

CHARITY TOSS TILT TO GET UNDER WAY Sixteen Students in Finals Of Annual Tattler Contest The annual Tattler Foul shooting contest will get under way Tuesday, March 24, with a Saga going to the boy and girl with the highest number of fouls.

Third Floor Used By Track Boys In Workout Practise Track hopefuls are now working out on the third floor with the exception of the Held event men. Because of an unconditioned track and a bit of cold weather these boys were confined to the third floor but it is expected that they should go out doors within a week. Boys going out for hurdling will begin practice on their form this week while the dashers and relay men will just workout on starts. ALL MEMBERS OF VARSITY TEAM PROVED A NECESSITY FOR SUCCESS Jack Wilson-A guard who never stops Hghting. It was Jack's bucket in the overtime of the Scott game that kept us up for the championship. Not enough can be said about Wi - son's Hne floorwork. 1 I U Dan Jackson-Wilsun's running mate. A dependable man in pinches with enough Hght to enable him to be a consistent point gainer. Danny's fine ball handling was a major factor in every game. U O U Irv Wisniewski, junior-- Wiz is the boy who, as a junior was, to many, the best center in the city., A star this year that will shoot higher next ear. Not enough credit can be given Hot his part on this year's team. I 1 i Bernard Seymour--A senior with a fine shooting eye which will be rnissed.A hard and good ball player that was instrumental in all of the Bear's vic- tories. One of the best forwards in the city. F l i Syl Golembiewski- Syl , the ,football star who took basketball with the same stellar showing at evere game. A vital cog in Woodward's point making machine. One of the best. if il 1 Frank Arbinger--A good reserve man. It's to boys like hink , that Coach Hanham owes a wining tea ' A con- scientious player with a golgql eye. 'Dave Kornowa--The Bear captain and our choice for all city forward. Davy was a consistent point-getter all year, Despite a weak right wrist as a result of breaking it, Dave turned in a Hne game every tilt. A player in the high scorers of the city, Dave will be surely missed next year. ik HK if Bob Brent-The smallest man on the squad, Bob made up in fire and iight what he lacked in heighth. Bobby was consistent from past the keyhole and could handle leather with the best of them. . X . Dick Sheline,--A junior who proved a mainstay in the strong Woodward reserve squad. Great things will come from Dick netxt ygeari Ed Sloan, junior--A a good ball handler with a quick mind. A four year man for whom Coach Hanham has a good spot on next year's squad. lk if IF Curtiss Ransome, junior--Only will be back next year with a year's varsity experience.

Good material BEAR RUNNER- P I DI TRICT EET FIGHTING BEARS SUCCUMB UNDER POWERFUL CENTRCAL AGGREGATION WOODWARD BEARS GAIN TWO HONORS Kornowa Receives Trophyg Players Awarded Silver Medals The Woodward Polar Bears, al- though falling short of the tourna- ment championship, took home 11 medals and two trophies from the University Held house last Monday, March 16. The ten players who were selected to represent Woodward at the tourna- ment each received a medal. The ten, Wilson, Jackson, Brent, Golembiewski, Kornowa, Seymour, Sheline, Ronsome, Wisniewski, and Jagodzinski were all presented silver key medals bv Edward Evans, presi- dent of the school board. Captain Dave Kornowa's excellent foul shooting eye garnered him a trophy. Ned Skeldon of Central over- took and tied Kornowa in the last game and the keeper of the trophy was decided by flipping a coin. Dave made 16 out of 22 possible tries. Coach Homer Hanham received a handsome trophy for placing the Bears in the runner up spot. Captain Kornowa took his third award of the evening by being chosen forward on the all city basketball team. Dave was the only member of Woodward's quintet to receive this honor. Although the Bears fell short win- ning the tournament, they did tie for the city championship which cannot be taken away. Woodward is proud of their team and every member on it. All Woodward would publicly like to thank Coach Hanham and his twelve basketeers for a successful season. Polish Lits Top Intra-Mural Contest With 175 Markers The Polish Lit Intra-Mural team gained another ten points on the second place Renaissance group by winning a first place in the goal shooting contest and a second in the foul shooting tournament. Following the Lit's record of 175 markers are the Rens with 155 points. The Americs come next, in a close third, with 110 marks. The standings of the two contests are as follows: G.S. F.S.

National League Pinsters Roll Season's Highest Total Coach Howard Phipps' National league pinsters handed a squad sport- ing Libbey colors two defeats in three starts. Some very handsome series were rolled and the highest team total thus far this season, a 869 in the final game. Although this final game start- ed rather slowly, Harold Managhan struck out in the tenth frame to give him a 186. Skeeter Bonkowski and Bob Levee both went all out from the seventh frame to give them five strikes in a row apiece, thus giving them a 180 and a big 204 respectively. The Bears kegged a 2405 to their opponents' 2230. Harold Managhan captured high series total with a 538 while Bob Levee hit 204 for individual game honors. 15 35 50 25 20 45 20 10 30 10 15 25 FIELD HOUSE SCENE OF ENCOUNTER Homer Hanham The gallant crew that bore the Blue and White banner through a violent and stormy court campaign wrote Finis to a colorful chapter in Wood- ward basketball by succumbing to the powerful Central aggregation 42-34 in the District final at the Field House. The two quintets, co-champs of the city league and bitter rivals, threw every known trick into the Fray in an attempt to cop the bunting. Coach Tscherne's Warriors led all the way, but the ever dangerous Bears never stopped fighting. They faced an 11-6 margin at the first quarter and a 22-17 handicap at halftime. What with Wisniewski having a bad night, and the crafty Central players drawing frequent fouls, our lads fought a losing fight. They trailed 30-21 at the third quarter, and despite a gallant effort in the final stanza, they failed to bridge the gap. Kornowa and Wisniewski rammed home 11 points apiece to top the point getters. Seymour produced six points, Jackson four and Wilson two. Bob McQuillen was high for Central. Scott defeated Rossford in the pre- liminary. Bears Defeat Rossford Coach Homer Hanham's basketball charges took the last hurdle before the big one with Central by chalking up a 45 to 34 triumph in a semi-final game with Rossford. Although the Bears were outscored 15 to 14 from the field they held a topsided 17 to 4 margin from the foul stripe. The score at intermission time showed the Bears leading bv a 22 to 11 count. The final stanzas furthered the Bear cause by a total of 23 markers. Dave Kornowa, Irv. Wisniewski, and Bern Seymour garnered 15, 13, and 12 points respectively. Danny Jackson made four markers and Syl Golem- biewski racked one. Macomber Loses Macomber's luckless Mechanics once again felt the bitter sting of a close defeat when they bowed 28-26 to Woodward's Polar Bears in the second round of the district tournament, last Friday. The score stood 22-11 at halftime but from then on the Crafts- men began rolling. The Mechanics were holding the ball a short distance from the Blue and White basket when the gun went off ending the battle. Wisniewski got nine points to lead the Bears while Jackson collected 7 for runner-up. Coach Watson Welever requests all boys with interest in shot-put, discus, Jr other Held events to come out for practice every night after school.

TWO SENIORS HOLD PERFECT RECORDS Afraid Of Missing Material Reason Unusual :Kids Attend School Jennie Kozlowski and Robert Lee, two very abnormal people, will be recognized at the next senior class meeting. Reason: perfect attendance for their four years of high school. Im- possible as it may sound, both Jennie and Robert have not missed one day of school since entering four years ago. Reasons given by these two freaks of humanity are not very convincing. Both assert that they have no special liking for school, but Robert is more positive about it. Although he stated that no particular opposition from his family prevented him from submitting to the lure of humming, he didn't think he would meet too much opposition there, if he so desired, Theres nothing else to do, so I might as well come to school, he stated. Jennie, on the other hand, merely sta- ted that she hadn't had any sickness or reason to keep her out. Anyway,I'm afraid I'll miss something if I stay at home, she said. Almost as remarkable as these peo- ple are Betty Ackerman and Ethelin Braur, who have only missed one day of school in four years. Last. but not least, are the following seniors who have not been absent this year. They are Jessie Goldie, Minewa Kalell, Mary Rusch, Dorothy SchuE, Patricia Skiver, Donna Surgeuson,Mary Jane Zaidel, Frank Arbinger,Alex Cuk- iewski, Joe Dviedvie, Bernard Kreger, Don Ruff, Aniese Seed, and Ernest Wolden.

PARCELL, GIVES EXPLANATION OF AIR SYSTEM Did you know that there's another way to be blown to Hades, besides by a bomb? Well, at least you can get a good wind-blown by merely stepping into one of the many air tunnels which wind around underneath the school. After winding your way through these caverns, one is suddenly struck with the idea that here is an ideal place for an air raid shelter. Although he con- firmed this statement, Ray -L. Parcell, chief engineer, stated that it was un- likely that they would actually be used, .due to the difficulty in getting in and out of the tunnels. It would be nice and air conditioned, though! A very interesting explanation of the air system here at Woodward was given by Mr. Parcell. The air comes through a shaft on top of the roof, which from the outside looks like a square house .It measures about twenty feet in length, and six feet high. The air is filtered through hot water pipes, and goes down to a huge shaft where it is blown in the various tunnels. From there it travels up through coils into the rooms. The foul air goes up to the attic, and from there, outside. Call To Arms Fred Dames, grad of '36, is now a member of the United States Air Cor s, stationed at Chanute Field, Illinois.

Mrs' Mane Erug l Hugh Montgomery Interest Yields The Glorious Product ODAY AMERICAN high school youth is facing the greatest challenge of its existence. The world is in a turmoil. At this writing, the Allied Nations are being beaten back on every front exoe t one. It seems as if no matter where outh loo s, the outlook is the same--dark and lio eless. R Words probably will have little effect on American youth at this time. The great challenge which they must face cannot be conquered with words. But perhaps there are a few which we American youth might regard as mainstays in our lives. Such words as democracy, freedom, and liberty surely cannot be taken lightly. They are the fundamental princi- ples of our very lives. We high school youths are the citizens of tomor- row. In us rests the future. If we are to continue our way of life, we must realize and hold these foundations of the future. Let none of us say we are not interested. Remember, interest today will yield the glorious product of America, the Americ- an way of democratic living. Reality A Necessity HE FOLLOWING WEEK will be given to spring vacation. There is much to be thought ofin connection. School should not be forgotten and above all, the observance of Holy Week. Holy Week is one ofthe most important weeks of the year Your creed or religion makes no difference. G0 to church. Be a Christian, for in these troubled times, we need religion. The doors of the school will be closedg the minds of the students, the same. Let's remember, school will continue after the vacation and none of us can afford to forget the material we were taught. Ponder over the facts: dont let your mind lapse into a day dreamer. Reality is a necessity in the life of a learner. Attend Mystery Play HE FIRST AND ONLY evening play, The Eyes of Tlaloc, of this school year will be presented by the dramatic class, under the direction of Miss Dorothy Warner, the Wednesday and Thurs- day following spring vacation. In previous years, the senior, junior, sophomore class each gave a play, but now, due to other activities, this is not done. Therefore, it seems a privilege, as well as a noveltp, to see a production in which fellow stud- ents are taking part. Local talent, especially that of people you person- ally know or have heard about, is much more enter- taining than professional talent, which through more expensive, is not so enjoyable. The people in this production have been employed for some time in an effort to bring you something worth- while. Not only the acting, but the wardrobe, the scenery, the tickets must also be under the man- agement of capable persons. The wonderful spirt shown at football an d basketball games by Woodward students be trans- formed into applause and support of this play. Peeking Through The Porthole Sailin' along the deep blue sea, we run across some famous words ofa certain junior miss, Oceans of love, and a kiss on every wave. Cute, is'nt it? At starboard point! There's Georgia Szczepanski and her Libbey grad, Mel, sailin firmly at full sail.

D-A-N-G-E-R-Seems like someone is coming toward us with guns uncovered. Full speed ahead-some thing tells us we're going to be massacred, but what did we do??? Spring Fever Spring is just around the corner---and, now is the time when a young man's fancy lightly turns to love. There's George Aubry,--my what pretty red hair--hmmmm--but why does he look so dreamy. Golly, he must be thinking of his one and only. Guess I haven't a chance with him. Roses are red, violets are blue, sugar is sweet, and Irene Hintz too. My, that fellow on the varsity bas- ketball keeps on repeating that poem. It must be ove. Here's a case where a young lady's fancy has turned. That young lady is Kate Holton and her thoughts are turned to that handsom lad, Louie Toms.

Pandemonium In all my years at Woodward I had never wit- nessed such pandemonium. The very rafters seemed to creak and shake with the thundering sound. Shot rang out!! Bodies fell, one by one, toa heap on the floor!! The air was dense with smoke from the rapidly firing guns. It seemed as if the awful din would never end. Oh! At last it had ceased and the smoke was beginning to rise. What a ghastly scene lay before my eyes. Not a single human left stand- ing. Then my horror filled eyes turned to some- thing white that stirred in the corner. It was a girl! Thank goodness that someone had survived that awful adventure! Suddenly my heart stopped beating. Just behind the girl, not ten feet away, an Indian crouched, with a knife held high. Closer and closer he crept to unsuspecting girl. Now he was almost upon her. He raised the knife high into the air, ready to plunge it into her back when .......... darn those noon movies! They always stop at the most exciting places.

DUE FOR BEAR NINE Baseball Hopefuls, Coached By Robie, To Defend City Title Under the expect coaching of Leo Robie, baseball hopefuls are now lim- bering up in the oys' gym and are expected to go outdoors within a week, if the weather permits. A successful season is sought by the defending city champions, not only because they have a number of boys returning, but also a group of newcomers who handle the sphere very efficiently. Unlike other years, the pitching staff is short of' mate- rial and Coach ltobie may use his second baseman, Dave Kornowa, as his starting twirler, or he may resort to a newcomer, left-handed Bob Du- l'ont. The catcher is also a doubtful ques- tion, but Ray Pierce, last season's third baseman, is the likely candi- date to that position. lf liornowa should pitch and Pierce catch, Mr. Robie will turn to sophomores or juniors, but with this experience they may prove to be valuable material in the future. Candidates for infield positions are: Pitchers, Dave Kornowa, Bob Dullont and .loc Carnes: basemen, lrv Wisniewski. Ray Pierce, George Aubry, Walter Bonkowski, Jim Knie- rim and Don Baker. Tryout for the outfield will not be known until the boys report to Wil- son Park practice grounds. Boxing Tournament To Be Held After Spring Vacation A boxing tournament will be held during an assembly period sometime after spring vacation. There are only fourteen boys training for this tournament and there should be af least fifty! stated Leo Robie, box- ing instructor. Mr. Robie expressed the wish that more boys would turn out for these boxing sessions. Every boy, if he's American, should know how to handle his hands and be physically fit, stated Mr. Robie. No definite date has been set for the tournament but it will h l , be ed soon after spring vacation. The fol- lowing boys are in training at Dres- ent: Bud Carr, Al Grill, James Wha- len, Dale C. Bolton, Ed Barker, Frank Zientek, Jack Baker, J. D. Calhoun, Billy Sares, John Yakumithis, Paul Jarwig, Clifford King and George Andros. IN FOUL SHOOTING Both Garner Fifteen Points In Annual Contest For Saga Dick Kellmer, freshman, and Chris- tine Lewandowski, senior, triumphed in the boys' and girls' foul-shooting respectively, each having sunk the sphere 15 times out of 20 attempts, to earn the first prize of one Wood- ward Saga apiece. Giving Dick a run for his money in the boys' contest, was Roger Weiher, who trailed by one small point, having attained 14 out of the regular 20. Only two points behind Weiher and three behind top place was Stanley Lewandowski with 12 successes. Kellmer, in the first round, connected eight times out of ten, and seven times in the second bout, giv- ing him the high total. Weiher rang the bell seven times in the ten tries both times, while Lewandowski dropped in seven the first time around alld five the second. Foul Shot Winner The girls' foul shooting contest came to a close March 24 in the girl's gym. Christine Lewandowski, senior, winner of the preliminary bout, proved her ability when she made 15 buckets out of 20 to win the finals. Evelyn Stincheond and Joan McClean tied for second place by putting in twelve buckets and Patricia Little- field came in third with 11 hits. Individual scoring for the boys was as follows: First Second Contestant Bout Bout Total Paul Seymour .............. 9 4 13 Louis Zink .................-.- 7 4 11 Gene Wasielewski ........ 8 2 10 Walter Dombkowski .... 7 4 11 Don Weber .................... 8 2 10 Dick Kellmer .............. 7 8 15 Stanley Lewandowski.. 7 5 12 Stanley Netry ......i....... 7 2 9 Roger Weiher .............. 7 7 14 Norman Wolfe ............ 7 3 10 Intra-Murals Boys' Intra-Mural teams which have been idle for a week will swing back into action immediately follow- ing spring vacation. The teams, all with a fighting chance to come through, will participate in handball and ping-pong in an attempt to win important points. WATSON WELEVER Today's interviews are on two members of the faculty. They hold coaching positions in Woodwardg but the reason they are in this column is because they are truly great guys. Question: What member of the Woodward faculty has held the Northwestern Ohio District shot-put record for the past thirteen years 'I Answer: That jovial man about School. lravk coach Arthur Weston Welever, who aside from his extra duties teaches several every day liv- ing classes during his leisure time. Doc, as he is known throughout the entire school, is one of 'the most active teachers in Woodward today, chaporoninr club dances, act- ing in faculty-student plays, coaching football, basketball, cross-country and track, besides his regular teaching duties, and co-adviser of the sopho- more class. Track is the greatest sport to coach, related Watson Welever, who as a student at Scott made quite a record for himself in that sport. Doc was active in field events Cshot and discusl, as is shown by already quoted shot-put record of 48 feet, 7.5 inches, which also was the Ohio , GEORGE ROHRER state record for three years. An- other record which he attained and held three years was the Northwest- ern Ohio discus record, also made in '29, of 121 feet '10 inches. George Rohrer Woodward's tennis team ought to go far this year for it is the first time that we've had so great a num- ber of net hopefuls returning, stat- ed George Rohrer, tennis coach. Mr. Rohrer, aside from being the only French teacher in the building, also teaches everyday living. At pres- ent this tall, brown-eyed, brown, haired tennis coach has one degree to his credit, that being a Bachelor of Arts degree. With the opening of school next September, he also ex- pects to have a Master of Arts de- gree to his credit which he will have received from Penn State University. Although he never played profes- sional tennis or participated in any sort of competition, he does play at this soeedy sport for his own enjoy- ment. A very successful season is looked for and much is expected be- cause a large number of netters are returning. FROSH, SENIOR WIN 'FOOTBALL COACHES WCRIIINGWWPIII GRID TURNDUTS AIN SPRING PRACTICE THIRTY-SIX HE-MEN TRY OUT FOR TRACK Eight Boys From Last Year Squad Return To Run Again Thirty-six wing-footed lads an- swered Coach Watson Welever's call for track try-outs for the coming track season. The initial appearance this spring takes place on Tuesday, April 7, in the Scott stadium. Of the three dozen tryouts, eight are returning from last year's squad. They are: Jack Wilson, Leonard Burns, Herbert and Paul Cramer, Ray Cukierski, Bob Brent, Danny Jackson and Jules Duhart. Coach Welever expects great things from two of these lads that were up on top last season. They are Jack Wilson, one of the best hurdlers in the city and who is out to make the the best hurdler in Toledo, and Jules Juhart who is out to break the shot-put record set by Coach Welever back in 1929 when he was captain of the Scott High track squad. . A freshman squad is to be or- ganized with the purpose behind it to enable the boys to work together through their four years of high school and give Woodward stronger material from which the varsity squad is to be chosen. Track meets may be attended by any and all students interested, free of charge. A good turnout to all meets would give the thin-lads plen- ty of winning spirit. Wysocki Leads Americans To Victory Over Scotters Bob Wysocki was high scorer, tak- ing both teams into consideration, when Woodward's Americans rolled an easy three-game victory over the Scott Bulldogs last Saturday, March 21, on the Auditorium alleys. Dashner of Scott was high point man for his bowlers with a 519 total in three ames but W socki's 555 g v Y points overshadowed him. The Polar Bears' individual scoring is as follows: 'a B.

SCRIMMAGE GAMES WILL BE PLAYED IN FUTURE Coach Jack Taylor's call for spring football candidates was answered by 65 more or less inexperienced boys. Coach Taylor, with the help of Elmer Vorderburg, backfield coach, and his assistant, Ted Szelogowski, have been conditioning the boys through daily indoor workouts. Outdoor practice till three weeks after vacation on running of plays with the fundamentals of football fully stressed will turn the green bunch into a pretty fair group of football players. Two or three scrimmage games with other Toledo schools have been arranged for the spring offensive. The squad is to be built around the returning varsity players with the line expected to weigh more than in previous years. Training of juniors and sophomores in an effort to secure a stronger reserve power, than in previous years, is one of the policies to belcarried out this season. Spring training in this fall sport unables those chosen for the varsity to come back next fall work out on their respective positions and enter the 1942-43 season in a precision like manner. Twelve Boys Out for Golf g Seymour Is Team Captain Twelve swinging lads answered Coach Howard Phipps' call for golf stars last Monday afternoon. Jack Seymour was elected captain of the Polar Bear par four boys by his fellow colleagues. Those re- turning from last year's squad are John Phillips, Sam Eckhart and Bob Harter. Richard Chapman, Ralph Gajewski, Leonard Grow, Dwight Lee, Harold Moores, Thomas Os- berger, Bob ltnff, Guy Wiseman and Captain Jack Seymour are new- comers. The sphere chasers will encoun- ter the Waite High Indians in their first match on Thursday, April 16. . Schedule for the entire golf season IS as follows: Tuesday, April 21, Central, Thursday, April 23, Ma- lf0lT'lb8I'Q Tuesday, April 28, Libbeyg Thursday, April 30, DeVilbissg Tues- gaygt May 5, bye, Thursday, May 7, co . B l FACTS ... i t Central's Fighting Irish and To- ledo's District Champs reached the State Finals in the Class A cham- pionship cage scramble. The Irish knocked ofi' a highly touted Celina squad in Findlay, 36-35. After this victory, Central met and defeated Mansfield, 36-34. We wish to con- gratulate the Irish and sincerely hope that they will bring back a state championship. Hli Y Y Captain Dave Kornowa was high point man for the cage season. Davy turned in a big total of 199, five bet- ter than runner-up lrv Wisniewski, who garnered 194.

T. U. entered the semi- finals of the national cage meet by knocking off Rhose Island U. The West Virginians' tight zone limited Big Bob to 14 points. THE WOODWARD TATTLER PETE ATTENTION CALLED ACTORS FORETELL PEN-A-QUIP Dick Hawkins is escorting Virginia Peppers to the Senior Prom, while Judy Justin has accepted Bob Un- stine's bid. Mrs. Kathryn Schuler's third hour English class is sending Mrs. Schuler, who is convalescing in Toledo Hos- pital, a daily diary of their class work. Those who know Howard Phipps will agree that it was most unusual when Mr. Phipps asked his third year class's fthree pupilsj permission not to assign any homework. In order to graduate from any Ohio high school it is necessary that a pupil have one of year of science. Everyday Living is not a science course, therefor, according to the state law, many pupils will be forced to enroll in a science class next year. Betty Buyea was surprised on her birthday Tuesday, when Don Weber and Robert Zaloski presented her with a beautiful corsage of pink roses. Kenneth Zimmerman handed out programs at the Toledo Symphony Orchestra concert, Monday, March 23. The committee for the annual Fas- ces club banquet is made up of Betty Timmons, chairman, assisted by Royal Kerr and Dick Foran. The Student Council will present the most deserving club in school with a plaque at the end of the school year. Junior rings were given out this week. Students were very eager to get them because there were only 170 rings to be paid for on Tuesday. The Board of Education has al- lotted 50 cents per pupil for library books for the next year. A list of books suggested by teachers will be gone over by Miss Stella Sawtelle who will make the final selection. The script writing class is produc- ing a play Women's Courageous, with the plot centering around wom- en's suffrage. The production is un- der the direction of John Hasty. The French club would like to thank Marion Howington for her splendid work in helping to prepare for the Co-ed Prom. Although Mar- ion is not a member of this club, she has been invaluable to it. Miss Betty Nelson has spent the last two Saturdays collecting maga- zines for the U. S. O. The first Sat- urday she was helped by two River- side boy scouts. Last week Gene Winters, Woodward freshman, accom- panied her.

Arlington Pupils Send Plea To Keep Toledo Cleaner City A letter and a copy of an ordinance of the city of Toledo on Public Convey- ances, etc.. was sent to C. C. LaRue by Patricia Hitchcox of Arlington School. We pupils of this school should make a habit of keeping Toledo a cleaner, healthier place to live in. This ordinance states that any per- son within Toledo who discharges anything from his lungs, nose, mouth, or throat upon the sidewalks or any other public building or place shall be guilty of a misdemeanor and shall, up- on conviction thereof, be fined from one i511 to ten 1510i dollars for each and every offense. He will also have to pay the cost of prosecution in the court. -English Classes To Sponsor Reading Material Collection A magazine drive will be staged by tive freshman and two sophomore Eng- lish classes to provide reading mater- ial for travel soldiers. In the part cipating classes, recent magazines will be collected and taken to the Union Station to a reading room. Traveling soldiers will be invited to read there or select for the trip back to camp. The drive is associated with the Civilian Defense Program. A gen- eral committee consisting of achair- man or co-chairman from each class will meet with Miss Dorothy Pasch. instigator of the drive.

McMurray's fifth hour class has not, as yet, Chosen a chairman. Virginia Shiffler of Mrs. Grace L. Kellermeiefs third hour class and Al Whitney of Miss Betty E. Nelson's first hour class will be the sophomores on the general committee. SUCCESS OF PLAY Weaver Enacts Senoritag Hobbs, Professor In Program The Eyes of Tlaloc will be a de- cided success and will be well worth the price of admission, predicted Gloria Weaver and Robert Hobbs, two of the characters in the play. Gloria plays the part of a Spanish senorita in search of her husband, and Robert will portray the role of Professor Hallet. Both students had a part in the Christmas Carol , Robert portraying the Spirit and Gloria assistant di- rector of the play. Gloria, who was the secretary of the Dramatic Club last year, has been a member since it was begun two years ago. Neither of the students have ambitions toward the stage as their future career upon graduation. Both are confident that the success of the play will be due to the capable direction of Miss Dorothv Warner and the excellent cooperation of the various characters in the play. The Eyes of Tlaloc will be pre- sented in the Woodward auditorium on the evenings of April 8 and 9. Members Of Women's Club Sponsor Dancing Classes The School Women's Club is sponsor- ing lessons in square dancing once a week at Robinson Junior High School. Teachers from Woodward who attend are Miss Amie Miller, Mrs. Eula Upp, Mrs. Lois Draves, Miss Gertrude Kan- ney, and Miss Dorothy Pasch. Miss Mary Dwyer is the instructor. The group from Woodward is hope- ing to have a square dance in school. Squa re dancing tor students is taught in Woodward everv Friday dur- ing seventh hour in the little gym for students who have a study period at that time. Woodward Sells Forty-Five . Dollars in Defense Stamps Na' ional Defense-minded Woodward purchased 545.00 worth of Defense Stamps Tuesday morning at the booth just outside the main office which is under supervision of the Saga. Leonard Fronczak, senior, made the largest purchase of the morning when he changed 514.75 to 25c saving-- stamps. Jim Jarchow, freshman. bought 100 ten-cent stamps which was the second largest sale here Tuesday. Bob Sheline, freshman, bought five dollars in ten-cent stamps and Evelyn Shames apparently broke her piggy bank to bring 125 pennies with which she obtained five 25-cent stamps. Sadie Douglas is in charge of the booth. Profit Shown in Statistics On Woodward Cage Season A total income of 51,399.25 was gained throughout the current basket- ball season in which Woodward par- ticipated in twelve league games and five suburban tilts. Total expenses reached 5810.99, leaving net gain of 557926. The Central games, both here and in the parochial gym proved to be the biggest money makers earning 5166.80 here, and 5127.60 in the Irish gymnasium. Woodward was repre- sented by 1150 students on all visiting games and held a 3248 attendance on all home games. Of the total attend- ance of all Woodward games, 4859 out of 10,120 persons were Woodward students.

The school will be divided by sec- ond hour rooms instead of by classes to accommodate teachers with mixed classes. MYSTERY-COMEDY SUCCESSFUL ON BOTH NIGHT PERFORMANCES Midst a welter ot' grease-paint, bald-headed wigs, and man-made- thunder, the cast of The Eyes of Tlaloc performed to an applauding audience on Wednesday and Thurs- day evenings. Since this play was primarily a mystery, Nawa, the tall, silent In- dian, stole honors for contributing chills and spine tingling terror. Phil- lip Mansour very impressively en- acted this part and Sadie Douglas, as Amanda, did her share of scream- ing and scolding. Her husband, Ezra, was portrayed by Vernon Baer, who was totally unrecognizable beneath a white wig and beak-like nose, with a pipe dangling between his Lips. His W iskers, or more decisively, the Professor, found an able interpreter in Robert Hobbs, who was convinc- ingljy mysterious and could be classed as a heavy when he fell on Jack Miles sleeping so peacefully on the sofa. Ruth Bernard, as Nancyg Eve- lyn Cieslewski, as Virginia, ,with a southern accent, and Frances QBie1ak, as Pat, enhanced the stage decidedly with appearance as well as acting ability. Si Senor Zimmerman, al- ways ready to help a damsel in dis- tress, defended the honair of heez seeztair, Gloria Weaver, who had so unfortunately married the professor. Nick Darah, as Tommy Tinker, man- fully solved the mystery which ended as Tlaloc fell on Robert Hobbs, who consequently fell through a trapdoor. Then John Wayne returned and can you imagine who he was? Marvin Hahn, of course, who had seen and heard everything through secret pass- ages. The ingenious direction of Miss Dorothy Warner, the realistically Mexican rancho set made entirely by the students and principally Vernon and Kenneth, the usherettes and pro- duction staff, and the Woodward Or- chestra, led by Miss Bessie Werum, all deserve the highest praise and ap- preciation for a play so successfully produced and managed. CHARLES MYNEDER RATES FIRST PLACE Two Students Tie For Second Placeg Marvin Hahn Ranks Third Charles Myneder rated highest among the contestants who wrote es- says on the subject, Should Com- pulsory Military Training Be Estab- lished in Our Schools? Kathryn Rudolph and John' Hasty tied for sec- ond place, while Marvin Hahn came in third. The selection was made Wednesday afternoon during the sixth hour when the students read their essays over the P. A. system. The classes interested, listened and then graded the speaker according to thought content, originality, voice, and compositon. ' Charles Myneder, who ranked highest, was also among the two highest from Woodward in the essay contest held here for the Town Hall of the Air series. He and Kathryn Rudolph are members of the Radio production class. John Hasty, Charles, and Kathryn are also members of the script writing class here at Wood- ward. All four students attended a meet- ing at the Board of Education, Thurs- day, at 1 o'clock, where Harry D. Lamb, supervisor of the radio de- partment, made the final selection. The one chosen will read his essay Monday night on the fourth in the senies 'of forum broadcasts. Com- peting against Woodward will be Libbey and Whitney High Schools. The broadcast will take place in the auditorium of Macomber High School. Rip Van Winkle Nets S89.27g Pupils Enjoy Presentation Mr. and Mrs. John Ellis found an auditorium filled to the capacity with an attentive audience when they pre- sented their own version of Rip Van Winkle Wednesday, March 25. Vanda Geordt and Francis Szpila, Woodward students, cannot be given enough cre- dit for their performance since these pupils were selected a short time before the curtain went up to act in the play at which time they learned their lines. A screening committee, made up of several grade school principals and teachers, who make reports on such programs regarding their fitness to be presented in other schools, was includ- ed in the enthusiastic audience. Hefore the play began, L. C. Clark and the audience joined in singing the national anthem, and during the long intermission Mary Rickard pl aye d several piano selections. Money collected totaled S89.27. This amount will be added to the Public Address Fund. Eyes Of Tlaloc Proves Very Exciting Off Stage And On The mystery play, the Eyes of Tlaloc, was a mystery, but a comedy behind the scene. After going out 65 miles in the country to get an oil lamp, it was broken during spring vacation re- hearsal. The night of the first perfor- mance one of the actors carried it out carefully to save it, but he too broke it. Vernan Baer was credited for saving the day by coming in with an extra line, while Marvan Hayn almost didn't come in at all, he stumbled over a ohair backstage. The entire cast celebrated their ex- cellent performance by going to Goon's and having a great time. BASKETBALL TEAM WILL BE HONORED Faculty Members, Oiiice Force To Be Hosts I I-IomerIHanham Woodward's city league co-champion basketball team will be honored Thurs- day, April 16, at a banquet sponsored by the faculty and office force of Wood- ward high school.

Our faculty is sponsoring a banquet as a tribute to these deserving boys. Under the able supervision of A. G. Brown, athletic adviser, two teachers from each floor have been chosen as a committee. The entire staff has contributed their share to the sucess of this noble enterprise. Such a venture is tobe highly commented upon. Thank you, Woodward faculty, for seeing that ample credit is given to our basketball team. They've earned it an we're pleased that you've put our sentiments into action. Choose Cup Winner Wisely VERY YEAR the Tattler awards an Achieve- ment Cup to the most deserving senior stu- dent. On the fourth page of the paper today is s blank on which any purchaser may make his choice of the student he believes worthy of this award. Every senior who votes Tuesday in his first hour class s ould consider seriously the qualifications of his fellow members that he may make a wise selection. The results of this voting aid materially the faculty committee who makes the final choice. Remember no Tattler students are elligible.

Gossip In The Tattler??! Gossip is idle personal talk,gr-oundless rumor or tattle says Webster. It has often been said that no good school paper depends on gossip to make it popular. However, this scribe would bet her last dime that you're reading this article because you think it might contain some gossip about you or your'friends. For example I might say that several freshmen girls are wondering why Ernie Klipfel is so bashful, when he's really rather cute. Again I might tell you thatJimmie Gernheuser should give the Woodward girls a chance rather than center all of his attention to a blond freshmen at Scott. Bern Seymour would probably buy a Tattler if he thought thatlwould mention that beautiful yellow sweater of his. If he isn't careful he will ruin his reputation for shyness and turn into a common wolf. Betty Davis would rush in the Tattler office and buy us out of papers before anyone saw that we'd printed something about her collection of pictures of several handsome local males. But of course, I'd never write anything like that. That would be gossip and you'll never find any gossip in the Tattler.

In an effort to raise funds to pay for their picture in the Saga, the Swim- ming class will sponsor a splash party at the Y. M. C. A. on April 25 from 9 to 10 o'cIock. There will be a limited num- ber of tickets distributed, two to each member of the class. Betty Timmons, Virginia Clarke, and Duanne Lentz are in charge of the af- fair and Mrs. Lois Draves is adviser. GOLF TEAM OPENS 1942 TOURNAMENT Captain Jack Seymour, recently elec' ted to head the 1942 golf team in its tournament drive, expects great things lrom all the members of the squad this year. Jack, a 19 year old senior who majors in mechanical drawing has earned one letter in golf, that being last year. The problems of trying to get a match game between the Bears' new squad and a team of faculty players is his latest worry. The faculty may fear this team which sports 4 returning players and has a watchful eye on the cup. Coach Howard Phipps plans to in- augurate the season April 16, when he will send his boys out to encounter Waite's representatives. This first game will find Jack out and trying to bring that cup to Woodward along with his 6 teammates. BEARETTE FACTS The Girls' Athletic League, sponsor- ing the Skirt and Sweater swing, will give to the first 65 people favors which are to be great surprises. I l U Spring sports for girls will be: indoor for sophomores, while juniors and sen- iors have their choice of archery, base- ball, or individual sports. li Ili at Girls started holding gym classes on the outdoor field this week.

For the next three weeks Coach Taylor has issued orders for outside work. Al' though baseball and track have crippled the attendance of future gridmen Coach Taylor along with backfield coach Elmer Vordeburg have had their men scrim- maging for the past week. Suits have been issued 'o all men out for the squad. In order to prepare the team for their fall encounters, several scrimmage games have been arranged. A powerful line is expected with many regulars on the 'returning list. The rest of the squad is to be built around this line. Eight Boys Sign For Tennis Tryouts At Meeting, April 6 Eight boys signed up for tennis try- outs during meeting held Monday, April 6. The boys are: Richard Sheline, Bob Sheline, Ernest Klipfel, Don Ruff, Allyn Rollo, Robert Tuite, Charles Pauken, and Dick Foran. George Rohrer, French teacher, is tennis instructor. The tennis schedule is as follows: Thursday, April 16--Woodward Waite Tuesday, April 21---Woodward Central Thursday, April 23---Woodward Macomber VS VB VS Tuesday, April 28---Woodward Libbey VB Thursday, April 30---Woodward DeVilbiss Tuesday, May 5---Woodward Bye vs Thursday, May 7---Woodward vs S :att BEAR LINK'S SQUAD TO OPPOSE WAITE The 1942 edition of the Woodward links squad will face their initial test next Thursday when they oppose a strong Waite squad at the Ottawa Park layout in their first encounter. Captain Jack Seymour has a strong squad behind him. Every man is cap- able of firing low scores and picking up points. Last year's squad, you will re- member, wound up in second place and garnered a third placr- in the district meet. Sam Eckhart, Bob Harter, and John Phillips are the three last year veter- ans returning. The Bears fell prey to only DeVilbiss and Libbey last year. These tilts were decided by but three points. -Should the Bears nose out the In- dians on the 16th they will have erased a strong contender for the city title. The Indians have, like Woodward, three stickmen returning for the match. Howard Spackey, mentor from Libbey has been appointed golf commissioner for 1942. Mr. Spackey will have com- plete control over the various school- Eoyif squads during the reign of King o . Though Coach Phipps has not given the lineup for the match, April 16th will probably find Jack Seymour in number one spot, John Phillips at post two, Bob Harter at three, and Sam Eckhart at the four slot. The other two will be decided at a later meeting of the team. Former Bowling Members Are On Famed McGee Team It seems that bowlers, more than any other sport groups, stay together after graduation. This statement is more than proved in a visit to the Mercury Bowling Al- leys. They were members of Wood- ward's bowling team while in high school, and now are one of the best bowling teams in the city. The McGee Brothers is the name of the team and the members are Captain John Powell J rg Ray Zielaskowski, Ed Durka, Lefty Marok and Clem Shubarga, who all are Woodward grads with the exception of Mrs. Shubarga. Air Raid Precaution Movie Shown Students Tuesday A movie showing the work carried on during an air raid was shown to the students during the first hour Tuesday. The movie sponsored by the Ohio Bell Telephone Company and the Ohio Council of Civilian Defense showed the complications of communication dur- ing a raid. It also showed how to ex- tinguish an incendiary bomb. Some points from the movie to re- member are. 1. Don't use telephone during raids. 2. Learn how to extinguish incendiary bombs. 3. Safest place is home. 4. Lie on the side-walk if you are caught outside. 5. Remain calm at all times. Final Plans For Convention To Be Completed At Waite Final plans for the spring conven- tion of the Northwest Ohio Journal- ism Association will be made at the next meeting to be held at Waite, April 14. The editors of 11 Toledo high school papers and Sylvania will assemble to plan the convention issue of the Tattler. Their picture, which will appear in this issue, will also be taken. Marilyn Schoonmaker, president of the Northwestern Ohio Journalism Convention, will preside. Mrs. Marie Ersig is adviser of the Tattler group. UN TRIED PITCHERS IS BIGGEST QUESTION Woodward's baseball club will open its season today, weather permitting, against the so far unencountered Lib- bey nine on our home diamond. The shortage of veteran pitchers may become a major hinderence to our chances in the leag u e race. Last year the team made a fair showing in the league meets, but turned up excelling in the tournament by copping the play- QH' crown. The Polar Bear sluggers seem to be in good shape this jear ex- cept for the lack of pitchers. Baseball coach Leo Robie announced that the season is opening five d aye earlier than it did last year cutting down the amount of practise to one week. . Dave Kornowa will be the propable captain but no team positions have, been definitely decided. The team mem- bers, including reserves, are: DuPont, Wisniewski, Arbinger, Aubry, Pierce, Knierim, Getz, Golembiewski, Kelmer, Berkel, Rogers, Trzaskowski, and Rom- berg. W. P. A. Concert Orchestra To Present Program Here Meyer Shapiro and his orchestra sponsored by the Workers Progress Administration will present a program, The Negro and American Music, to the sophomores and juniors, Tuesday, April 14.

CAMPAIGN PLANNED Miss Grace Cronk Directs Campaign Drive At Woodward Under the direction of Miss Grace Cronk, this annual Community Chest drive will be launched next Monday. This year the campaign will be doubly important, and students will be asked to be doubly generous. It is a fact that the Toledo Com- munity Chest indirectly or directly aids every person in Toledo. The 41 benefited agencies include Health Agencies for the prevention and cure of sickness and Child Care, which protects homes and prevents depend- ency in many cases. Woodward stu- dents use many Recreation Centers, such as the Community Houses, and Boys' Club. Scouts and other forms of group work receive aid from the chest. These institutions help mould character and build better citizens. The present conditions will make this campaign doubly important for all the above mentioned agencies have a greater need for supporting funds. As yet these funds have not been granted, but it is hoped that a large scale drive may bring the necessary results. Miss Cronk urges each stu- dent to give as much as possible. The collection will be taken in the first hour classes Monday and will con- tinue through Thursday. The Community Chest greatly aids the morale of our country through its entertainment and recreational in- stitutions. ln closing Miss Cronk stated that Woodward students received more aid from the chest than any other Toledo High School. Frosh Intra-mural Teams Start Basketball Leagues Newly formed freshman teams for the intra-mural basketball race met March 26 and April 6 starting the new league.

Teams participating were: the Wiz- ards with two wins, Midgets, one loss and one win, Panthers, 'two de- feats, Buckeyes, one win and one for- feit, Sure Shots, one win, one loss, Bears, one win, one loss, Wildcats one loss, one forfeit, and the Rockets with two victories. In the other intra-mural league which is now participating in hand- ball and table tennis, a series of for- feits gave the Americans, All Stars, Polish Lits, and the Renaissance wins over the Adams Township, Auto Me- chanics, North Enders, and Printers teams. No games were actually played out, but the forfeiting teams are discredited with a loss and the others were granteda regular victory.

Small Though It Mav Seem OODWARD'S contributions to the Commu- nitgr Chest campaign have been surprisingly de cient. P er h a p s the reason for this is that the students are not familiar with the ser- vices rendered by this agency. The Community Chest provided homes for those who are unable to support themselves and for the parentless children. It provides day nurseries for those children whose mothers work. These are on- ly a few of the charitable deeds done by the Com- munity Chest. There isn't an organization who is more justified in receiving our help, small though it may seem to carry on its activities. Those Students Behind The Scenes ONIGHT IS the senior's dance. It is a yearly event, and every year it is looked forward to with great anticipation. Many students, espe- cially seniors, quickly sign petitions. Girls talk about their new dresses. Boys argue witl' their dads to get the family car. Everywhere in Wood- ward there is the growing concern about the Senior Prom. In all this atmosphere of anticipation, committees are quietly working cooperatively. They had planned each job carefully and are now executing their duties. These behind-the-prom committees have worked hard for tonight's success. To them goes the appreciation of everyone who will attend tonight's Senior Prom in the Trianon. These mem- bers can well be proud of their work when they see tonight the good time that will be had by all. America Needs Salvage Ma terials ADIOS, MAGAZINES,newspapers, and govern- ment pamphlets have been advocating the conservation of materials necessary for the war effort for sometime.People of the United States have also been asked to conserve waste materials about their homes for exactly the same purpose. This great country of ours is in one of its most crucial periods since its beginning. The war must be won, won to preserve free do m, liberty, and justice which are now staggering in open space and need allied victory to stabilize them. To assure victory our country needs materialsg those which are necessary to meet the enemy on their own level. Woodward, under Mrs. Mary O'Brien, is asking our students, the youth ofAmerica, and the citizens of tomorrow, to help. Bring in your paper, that is asked of you. Can you permit yourself to forget this little deed? Your country is seeking your help! Be gracious in your readiness, for there ie but one America. and that America is yours, to have and to hold. Help, now! PRINCIPAL POINTS' I Neighborly Notes When you boys and girls of Wood- only seven short weeks of school left X , ward read these lines, you will have 5' 'A il? A Q in this school year of 1941-42. To some - A, of you that may. seem too long, but for ,N is ,. . . ' the great majority it will be extremely ' - short to do things you should do before ' school is over. All the events of' the past year make it apparent that you must take seriously this business of getting an education. There are two important things for you to do before the close of school in June. First of all, no matter what sort of grades you earned during the first half of this semester you should make up your minds to do better work in school. If your grades were low or even failing there is still time for you to get down to the serious business of studying and pass in your work. The world today has no room for fail- ures and absolutely no patience with them. If your grades were average try to make them better. Many boys now in the service of our country are finding out that school records mean something in this struggle to get ahead. Vain regrets will get you are out in the thick of the struggle. The second important thing is that all of you must look ahead and thoughtfully plan for next year. Study your own possibilities and the offer- ings of the various subject fields and choose your subjects as wisely as you can. Do not detour around subjects that you think difficult. All the courses have certain values. Try to choose the ones that will do you the most good when you are through school. Your teacher, your parents and older friends that are genuinely interested in your future will give you good advice. Consult them. Find out all you can about the type of work that you think you want to do and then earnestly and intelligently prepare yourself for it. ,-l Let's Pretend Woodward seniors are playing a new game.

Some dates for this great event are Betty Timmons and Swede Widlund, Honey Serafin and Jack Tolford. Betty Giha and Tom Boggs, Jacqueline Bartolett and Ted Nowak, and Mildred Bogdanski and Don Bialecki. ll 1 U It seems that Pat Janowieski and Ralph Gajew- ski have fmally broken up, or so they say. The proverb In spring s young man's fancy turns to- the thoughts of other girls. We really wonder if this is the case. Anyway, they are attending the dance tonight because of a previous set date.

His uniform was krispy and new, giving him a military bearing When he arrived, crowds were milling about, panic ran high. He shoved and shouldered his way through the mass. He must quiet them. He straightened his shoulders, Hicked a speck of dust oh' his coat, cleared his throat and offered the statement which was to rank with Hamlet's soliloquy and Carton's last words.

MEET Physical Education Faces Wartime Was Theme Of Convention Homer I-Ianham, Woodward basket- b all c o a c h, represented the High School Physical Education instructors of Toledo in a nationwide convention at Milwaukee to discuss the theme. Physical Education Faces Wartime. Learned physical Ed. teachers from all over the country spoke on the var- ious plans. The adaptation of German methods of instruction was opposed by Dr. 'Delbert Obeitueffer who stated that it was doubtful if the Brute strength of the German youth was the American goal. The war he believes will bring a new emphasis on the democratic admini- stration of physical education, on more consideration for the individual and on development of mutual respect among buys. and girls. The well rounded in- dividual who is fit not just physically fit will be the ideal of such programs. The convention attenders were treat ed also to discourses by Frank O. Halt Wisconsin Dean, who spoke at the ban- quet and Lloyd Larson, of the Milwau- kee sport staff was toastmaster. Ross Allen of Michigan U. also spoke, and Harry Stuhldrerer, football coach at Wisconsin and quarterback of the fam- ous Four Horseman of Notre Dame, spoke on offensive football. Other notables included Dr. Clarence D kstra president of the University of Vlfisconsin, and Grace M. Grifhn from West Virginia. Bay Rum Boogie Pinsters Tie Strikers For First Spot The Bay Rum Boogies last Monday tied the Strikers, breaking for the first time the Strikers monopoly on first place laurels.

FROSH ENTER LAST LAP IN I-M LEAGUE Series Of Forfeits Prevent Predictionsg Bullets Lead Teams Woodward's ne wly-formed Freshman intra-mural league is at the half-way point in its closely contested campaign, with no one team having a lease on top honors. A series of forfeits have complicated any possible prediction,but those teams which meet, always make a good show- ing. Tuesday night the Panthers top- pled the Wildcats with a nine point margin at the final gun with a total of 27-18. The Wizards flew over the out- paced Sure-Shots in a decisive 32-19 tilt. Forfeit wins were granted to the Midgets and Rockets with forfeit losses marked against the Bears and Buckeyes In the other intra-mural league the Polish Lits with Dan Kosokowski as captain bowed to Bob Brent's Renaiss- ance boys in handball and table tennis. The Freshman All Stars took the high score in a handball and a table tennis fight from the Americans. Bear Swingers Play Waite, 5 Boys Named For Positions At a golf meeting during the as- sembly period last Monday Coach Howard Phipps announced the lineup for the Bear Indian fray which was played yesterday.

A newcomer, Dwight Lee will hold down number five spot. As yet, no one has been named for number six posi- tion but it will be either Grow, Osber- ger, or Heath. These boys will play a round of golf late this week inan elim- ination effort.

RED AUBRY, RAY PIERCE, VARSITY BASEBALL BACK-STOPS' QUESTIONED All you scholarly students who have had occasion to absent yourselves from fourth hour classes will be interested to know that the smiling hall guard who gently kicks your teeth out and drags you to the dean's office is none other than Raymond Pierce. Ray, an 18 lyear old senior, is one of the returning letter men upon whom Coach Robie will bank Bear diamond hopes. He was last years guardian of the look-in-con ner but this year he will don the mask and pads to go behind the bat. 1Riva1 base-stealers beware! Our hero' a generous soul' has also 'ven the football and track coaches a E-i'eak by participating in both sports. He likes Coach Robie because of his big shot act, and staff will not be so had with Kornowa, Golembiewski, and DuPont bearing the burden. Ray, who was recently conceeded the richest man in Woodward because of his owning four tires, lists among his favorites, driving and Irene Ciew- ewski this prom datej. I. 1. When asked about the world condi- tions Ray replied seriously in his cul- tured tone, I tink slacks are here to saty. I think we've got a first place team. These words issued from George Aubry better known as Red, varsity baseball backstop. Red has had plenty of catching ex- perience. He caught for both the champ- ionship knot hole squad and the Eddie Collins league champs. But baseball is only a sideline with Mr. Aubry also a member of the lightweight football and bowling squad. It is also pleasing to note that Red played a hard hitting forward on a first place basketball spuad. Dimpled Joan McLean and ice cream top George'a other interests. This grey eyed senior, however, makes it known that the girl rates higher. When questioned about coach Robie Red , who incidentally, gets his nick- name from his firey red hair, stated He's a good coach because he works with you. BEARS DROP FIRST TILT OF SEASON g TO LIBBEY 6-43 DAFPONT GOES LIMIT z. rms I ti I The 1942-43 edition of the golf squad boasts four sophomores, four seniors, four juniors, and two freshmen. sa if The first casualty of the base ball sea son came last week when Red Aubrey caught a ball on the end ofhis finger in practice.

Jane Searles To Debate Jane Searles, former Woodwardite, is a member of the Toledo University debating squad which is making a tour to several eastern colleges. Among the cities they will visit are Pittsburgh, Philadelphia, and Brooklyn. The squad consists of seven members and will return Sunday. Erratic Base Running Costs Bears Chance To Win Leo Robie King Baseball officially ascended his throne last Tuesday and in the course of opening day battles through-out the nation, Woodward's Polar Be ars, dropped an extra inning affair to Libbey six to four. Coach Leo Robie pulled a surprise by waiving experienced pitcher Kornowa and Golembiewski to start his rookie southpaw, Bob DuPont. After Libbey had gone scoreless in the first half of the first inning, Wood- ward jumped off to s two run lead on singles by Kornowa, playing second base, Arbinger, Wisniewski and Russ- e . Libbey came bouncing back in the second frame to combine ahit with Woodward errors and tie up the ball game. The Bears picked up a tally in the third and one in the fourth but Libbey counted twice in the fourth to knot the game again. It was thus that the regulation seven innings were played out. In the eighth, the Cowboys got to DuPont and drove two runs home. Woodward made a gallant effort in their half, but an erratic bit of base running cost them what chance they may have had. Kornowa and Arbinger with three pokes each in four attemps led the hitting attack. However the Bears were a little off in timing and as a re- sult the Libbey hurler was credited with 12 strikeouts. Tennis Team Opened Season Against Indians At Libbey The Woodward tennis squad has been working out nightly in preparation for the current season. Under the expert coaching of George Rohrer the netters have been working out daily at the Bayview Courts. This practice was to find the teams weakness. These workouts are of the general type with coach Rohrer work- ing on the teams weaknesses. Serving was stressed mostly. Those out for the team are Dick Sheline, Bob Sheline, Ernice Kelpfel, Don Ruff, Allyn Rwllo, Bob Tuite, Charles Parken, and Dick Foran. The net men opend April 16 with Waite at the Libbey Courts.

'F PF 'll Correction - There was a mistake in last week's Tattler concerning girls' bowling. Ruth Damraur was the top notcher with 155 pins to her credit.

But Marvin defers it to Quite a remarkable committee, feel- ing that they deserve the credit.

BEAUTIES STRIDE TO GAIN TOP TITLE Miss Personality Contest Sponsored by Sylvania Strutting their stulf before a row of solemn judges, namely, genial C. C. LaRue, Woodward's principalg serious C. M. Meek, Woodward's boys' dean, and the handsome George Hammer- smith, adviser of the Macomber Hi- Crier, one representative from each school attending the convention at- tempted to gain the title Miss Per- sonalityf' In the first few rows of the audi- torium sat a group of enthusiastic journalists who were selected to write the personality contest up, thus the composers of a second race. Immedi- ately following the opening session, this group retired to the library where they interviewed Miss Person- al1ty and then settled down to their writing. The best story was decided upon by Miss Mary Hutchinson, di- rector of English of Toledo Public Schools: Mrs. Hazel McManamon, head of Woodward's English depart- ment, and Clayton Tooley, guest ad- viser from Fremont. The highlight of this affair was the entry of Macomber Vocational High School, under the name Meri Mac, who proved to be not only a vivacious bruette, but Russell Lehman. Arrangements of the opening ses- sion were made by Miss Maxine Gor- don and the Sylvania staff. .For the contest results, see the mimeographed sheet, which is in- cluded in all Tattlers distributed to journalists. Mrs. A. J. Brown Presents Husband With Baby Girl Mrs. Arnold J. Brown, wife of faculty member Arnold J. Brown, presented a baby girl to the secretary of the ath- letic board in the Toledo Hospital last Monday, April 20, 1942.

Betty Giha WELCOME, DELEGATES Welcome, delegates to the North- western Ohio Press Convention. I Woodward is happy to open her portals to such an active group of Journalists. We have tried to plan the conven- tion so as to have it rank on the same level with those held in past years. Our one thought was of you, our enjoyment, an comfort. It has been a pleasure to act as host, to have you come into our school Qand city. Thanks To All Who Helped Today's convention was not the Work of one person. It was the com- bined effort of many students, teach- ers and other people not connected with the educational system. These boys and girls, men and women, in- dividually, have given much time and work to the fifth Northwestern Ohio Journalism Convention to enable all of you here today to enjoy your- selves, both educationally and so- cially. Of course, all those who did help cannot be cited here because of the s ace element: but there are some wlhom we must reco nize because of their contributions. lWiss Rose Bloom, adviser of the DeVilbiss Prism, was responsible for all the round tables. To you, Miss Bloom, our many thanks. Another person who truly deserves a great deal of credit is Mrs. Cecil Ashbrooke, cafeteria head. She and her helpers planned the en- tire luncheon for today. Mrs. Ash- brooke did a fine job. Burnham high school, Sylvania, who wrote and for- mulated the opularity contest, cer- tainly must We thanked wholeheart- edly for their contribution to today's event. To all of our speakers, teachers and students who in other manners aided the convention, we offer our gratitude. You have given Woodward a great deal of satisfaction in the way you so readily and cheerfully responded to our call for help. ,11... ll- Senior Prom Transcends All Dances The annual senior prom, which was an affair of last Friday evening at the Trianon, proved to be a tremendous SUCCOBB, socially as well as financially. Not only the students were respon- sible for the social success ofthe prom, but the members of the faculty as well. There were more teachers present at the dance this year, than any grevious Senior Prom. This is justifle by the fact that the faculty was constantly interrogated by the members of the senior prom committee as to their intention of attending the prom. Everyone who attended, faculty and students, will a ree that this prom transcended all Elie dances held this year --Woodward Whispers I A Woodward lnvaded Neighborly Notes Today Woodward is swarming with good looking lads and lassies here for the convention.

My opponent immediately came to close quarters and the bat- tle was on. We wrestled to and fro. My legs felt like leaden weights. I realized that my best plan was to keep moving, but would my tired muscles respond. I seemed to hear dim music in my ears, and I Won- dered if I was lapsing into uncon- sciousness. I knew that there couldn't be much time left and I struggled to last. My big and brawny opponent was gradually overpowering me. Then at last. The sharp, clear peal of the bell. I was saved. The couples broke up and another dancing' class was over. Do you feel a strange sensation coming over you Qinterrupting your snooze in study hallj? No, it's not love or spring fever, but it is a. gasp- mg, slimy feeling. Know what? Snakes, yep, there's snakes in these here parts! Don't get me wrong- the Japs are still over there. These are the real thing. First sign of their invasion came during the air raid last week. He was discovered by two feminine members of our noble faculty, who nearly caused smelling salts to come on the run, dangling from a locker on the first floor. Our gentle friend was later identified by Russell Henning, freshman, who declared his pet would leave the premises on his person. Alas, later in the fateful day the omnipresent member of the reptile category again put in his appear- ance, and since has been flittin' here and there, along with his rumors. Who knows? Maybe he's a special agent for Hirohito. If you see him, tell him Russell is looking for him.

Jumping over puddles and side- walks, we enter by the main en- trance, it is rarely used since the deans train their eyes on all way- ward tardy students. The auditorium, decorated by a tribe of wild Indians, who founded Woodward's primitive education, seats a capacity crowd of 250 people. Across the halls, we find two doors on either side of the tro- phy case. Those are the portals thru which we enter Woodward's prize possession--the elevators. .Don't you believe we have elevators? Why not try them sometime? il.1L.T..l.- Nine Sewing Students Help Repair Auditorium Curtains Nine girls from the advanced sew- ing class and the beginners' class are repairing the curtains in the audi- torium.

Lost Soul Today, while wandering about in Woodward halls, I was deeply shocked to find that our beloved school had changed hands or been captured by the enemy. Not one face did I see that I could recognize- not .one person that I could tag a. monicker onto. Perhaps the government was using our portals as a concentration cam for the Japs. No, they didn't look very slant-eyed. Or perhaps Warden LaRue had finaly permitted his Woodward prisoners visitors. But where were the Woodwardites the prisoners were visiting? It was a rather strange time of Year 110 be importing new freshmen. No, they looked too Wise. Still, they walked about the halls like freshies. Suddenly, 8 thought occurred to me-maybe I-was in the wrong building. Yet, it looked like Wood- Warsl--It had to he Woodward! Finally, the light dawned on me and. I was nearly blinded by my in- telligence. I knew who these people were. These strangers were journal- sist, just like I sometimes am in my more brilliant moments. They were guests .of Woodward attending the convention. Relieved, I wiped my brow gnd .went forth to welcome them. .. . .?ir.Hnz4li.-ilu. .. -- . J THE WOODWARD TATTLER BEAR CINDETR. SQIILXD BULLDOGS, MECHS f BEAR CIN-DER SQUAD GARNER WIN WINS OVER LIBBEY' VICTIMS-OF BEARS 'OVER WAITEQ LOSE T0 FREMONT -- an Track Team Garners Places In Almost Every Event The surprising new Polar Bear track team added new laurels to their skyrocketing season by traveling to Libbey and reverting the Cowboy thinclads to the tum- of 6212 to 55lEi last Tuesday. X Special credit should hc given to Jack Wilson, Tom lloggs, Jim Davis, and Jule Iluhurt, who took four tirst places from some of thc toughest competition in the city league. Teamwork Shows The whole team worked as one ma- chine, beating down opposition and coming close: or winnng in every event. Jack Wilson took first in the 120 und 220-yard hurdles, while Tom Boggs captured the long 440-yard run with llurns taking the third plan-c in the same event. Dallas, lloyd and Bunker placed second in the 220-yard run, 220-yard hurdles, and the 880-yard run, re- spectively. Cramer submitted two third places in the hurdles and the mile run while Burns and Davis brought in third places in the 440-yard run and low hurdles, respectively. Woodward also clasped the mile relay and a second in the 880 relay. Field Events Won The Hold events were once again dominated by Jule Duhart, who cap- thc discus throw and shot put. Wisniewski placed second in and C. Duliart third makin it tured Irv. these , . ,fr a one-way Woodward affair.

I 1 l Jim Knierim Smashes First Four Base Poke Of Season Coach Leo Robie's baseball squad handed the Scott Bulldogs a sound 9 to 4 spanking April 20, on the Bears' home field. The Bear nine put their hits to a good advantage, chalking up nine runs on as many hits, while the Col- lingwood boys crossed home plate four times in twice as many hits. Momberg was the heavy offensive man for the Blue and White, blasting the sphere Ain safe territory three times in three trips to the plate. Arbinger and Kornowa also got two hits apiece. Bob DuPont was the winning hurler who pitched an excellent brand of ball. The only time getting into any difficulty was in the sixth frame when he was hit three times but he retired the side before too much dam- age was done. Also Beat Macomber The Bears also stopped Macomber at an earlier engagement, 9 to 7. Dave Kornowa took over mound duties and released but five hits while the Hearts hit for seven. Jim Knierim was the heavy hitter of this battle, getting two hits and the latter a long drive into left field which proved to be the first home run of the season. The seven walks issued by Pilas- zvnski, Macomber twirler, really proved to be his downfall. The sec- ond inninaf was the big one for the Bears for besides getting two singles in that frame four of the walks helped the local nine to get five of their runs that frame. Ransome, Wisniewski Are Co-Captains Of Basketball Curtiss Ransome, forward, and Irv Wisniewski, center, were chosen co- captains of the 1942-43 Woodward High School basketball team, at the faculty suonsored banquet in the school last Thursday. Varsity letters were awarded to sen- iors Dave Kornowa, Bern Seymour, Jack Wilson, Dan Jackson, Bob Brent, Sylvester Golemhiewski, and Frank Arbinger.Juniors Curtiss Ransome, Irv Wisniewski, Dick Sheline, Ed Sloane, Ray Jagodzinski and the managers Jim Thie, Normon Wole, and Wally Murray. Guest speaker of the evening was Harold Anderson, former Toledo Uni- versity basketball coach and new Ath- letic Director at Bowling Green Uni- versity. With him was his record break- ing center, and all-American for two years, Bob Gerber. Guests of honor were Mr. and Mrs. Charles C LaRue, Mr. and Mrs. Homer Hanham, Mr. and Mrs. Wilson Weis Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Deuce, and Mr. and Mrs. Watson Welever. Varsity Seniors Win Over Juniors In Furious Battle Hopes for a championship basketball t e a m next year were considerably heightened by the excellentshowing of the Junior squad as they dropped a bitterly fought game to the seniors, 21-19. The juniors surprised everyone by jumping oii' to a fast start and leading 106 at the end of the first quarter. Wisniewski and Sheline kept hitting and the juniors led 15 to 19 at half time. The second halfsaw the upperclassmen come into their own and sweep to vic- tory. Wisniewski and Sheline with seven points led the losers, while the winners were paced by Brent and Kornowa. The total proceeds of the game were 84000. This will be added to the intake of the other events which included 593.62 for the first faculty Polish Lit game and 868.55 for the second clash. 836.10 was gleaned from the boxing show and the entire total,tax deducted, , will be used to further spring sports.

Bob Sheline was the only member able to pull a match out of the Indian fray, winning 4-6, 6-2, 6-0. The other two points came when a Waite player was injured and the number two doubles match was forfeited. The number one doubles team, Bob Tuite and Don Weber, lost to Milks and Johnson 2-6, 6-8. Co- captain Dick Sheline playing first sin- gles lost to Littlefield 2-6, 4-6. The Irish matches, play ed on Libbey courts last Tuesday, found the Bear netters unable to come through with the necessary points, consequently being shut out 8-0. Don Weber in first singles position came close to ruining Central's shutout, as did the number two doubles Charles Pauken and Don Ruff, the for- mer's score being 5-7, 2-6, and the lat- ter's, 5-7, 4-6. Skeeter Bonkowski, a new- comer to the team played number two singles, but went down, 0-6, 0-6. Bob Tuite and Allyn Rollo dropped their match 0-6, 3-6 to complete the scoring. rxc S . ,tif it Woodward's golf team won their first game by a forfeit over Waite, Ap- ril 7. IK Sk tk Jim Knierim hit the first home run of the season when against Macomber he blasted the sphere deep in the heart of left field. Incidentally, the Bears won 9-7. Bk lk lk The Bear gridiron squad is diligent ly practicing. It is now rumored about Woodward that with our heavier line and speedy backfield, the Bears will undoubtedly break that city game losing streak. , Jack Wilson Stars In Both Meetsg Jackson Places The Bear thinclads traveled twice last week and met with one victory and one defeat. The victory was held over the Waite Indians April 17, when the Bears trounced the opposing Redskins, 58 to 50. The Bears on their second venture for a win met Fremont and were set back 75 to 43. At the Waite meet, Jack Wilson cap- tured laurels by coming in first in the 120 yard high hurdles and 220yard low hurdles. In the 100 yard dash and the 220 run, Dan Jackson proved out by bringing in two more first places. Tom Boggs came in first in the long 440 en- durance run. Golembiewski Places Syl Golemhiewski came in second for both the 100 and 220 yard dashes while Bunker and Cramer filled in with two third places in the 880 and 120 yard hurdles, respectively. The Polar Bears were given most of their trouble by Stewart of Waite, who did much to bring the score down to a close margin. In the field events, Jule Duhnrt proved Woodwardis star hy finishing first in both the shot put and discus throw while Wisniewski supported with asec- ond place on the discus. Jack Wilson also proved a broad jumper by taking a second place from Waite. Final score: Woodward, 58 5-6g Waite, 50 1-6. Reversing luck brought the Bears a spanking from Fremont, April 18. Wilson Shines Jack Wilson once again gave a stellar performance, bringing home the only two first places in the runs. Jack captured the 120 yard high hurdles and the 220 low hurdles to give the Bears the only leads they had. Syl' Golem- biewski found two second place spots in the 100 yard and 220 yard dashes. Tom Boggs rated a second on the 440 yard run while Paul Cramer took three third places in the 120 hurdles, the miler and the 880. Burns found third in the 440 and Stevens third in the 100 yard dash. Harold McFarland, a second year man, pole vaulted 9 foot 3 to take Hrst in the pole vault event. Jule Duhart took two first places in the field events by taking the shot put and discus throwing events. Wilsons seconding in the high jump helped to lessen the final 75 to 43 throwback. Central Golf Squad Beats Woodward In Close Match The Bear golf squad dropped their initial encounter to a strong Central squad last Tuesday at Ottawa Park, 1495 to 12175. Bob Harter and John Phillips were high point men as they picked up four points apiece. The match was closely contested allthe way with both teams in a deadlock until the eighteenth and final hole. Johnny Phillips was low for both teams when he carded a 7 over par 79. Woodward, Central Coaches Hold Joint Grid Scrimmage Coach Jim McCarthy of Central and Coach Jack Taylor of Woodward held ajoint football practice last Friday at Woodwai-d's field. The Irish and the Bears labored wil- lingly, picking out flaws in each others' offensive and defensive tactics. With most of the boys kept under wrrps it was rather difficult to single out any possible stars. The Irish aerial attack showed in6- nite promise while the running of Paul Varwig and Captain Al Ustazewski gave promise for better things next year. L 1 'f- '.l uv-' - 'r-.5 ----, ,. ,Blu. -,,, , ,.

We failed to reach our quota, by 867.78, even though the Spanish and German clubs each contributed 85.00. The total amount turned in by the teachers was 841225. This, together with the student money, makes Wood- ward's total contribution to the Com- munity Chest, 562.97. Last week Mrs. Isla Van Vranken's name was omitted from the list of rooms which were leading the school.

Chief Yeoman To Speak Chief Yeoman Seeberg, representa- tive ofthe United States Navy Recruit- ing Office in Toledo, will speak to the Junior and Senior boys on Opportun- ities in the Navy on Monday, May 4. Mr. Seeberg spoke to the boys early in the semester after the attack on Pearl Harbor.

Benjamin Franklin High School of New York, a boys' school of 1500 pupils of thirty-five nationalities, was visited by Mrs. McManamon. The study of Americanism plays is an important part in the school life. The extensive study of remedial read ing and the work of Americanizing the community through the school made a great impression on the visi- tor. Miss Savage was impressed with the business-like attitude of the stu- dents and the cleanliness and order- liness of the lunch system of Hugh's High School of Cincinnati. Their two lunch hours are forty-five minutes long. While half of the students are eating the, other half either study or visit in the auditorium.

A number of pupils have submitted essays and a capable committee has selected the best papers to be broadcast. A program has been carefully plan-- ned and finally an invitation is being extended to all pupils to attend. - In the past the audience has consisted of a few pupils, namely radio students. To make the pro- gram sound successful to the radio audience it is necessary for the auditorium to be nearly filled with the pupils present, clapping when instructed to do so. There is no admission, no collection, but there is an iteresting experience awaiting you if you attend. Students, this is your own program. Why not do your part in making it a success. I Make Out Choice Cards Wisely RIDAY THE freshmen, sophomores, and jun- iors will select the subjects they wish to carry next year on their schedule. Their choices should be carefully considered before preferences are picked. Speaking generally, it seems that most students choose their subject with reflections upon the credits they will yeild, and not upon subjects themselves. The initial purpose for choice cards is to present an opportunity to the students sc they may select the studies which will prove to be the greatest asset in realizing their ambitions. In making your choices, consider the future possibilities of the subject, and their relations to your career. Choose solicitiously and wisely. Two Operettas For The Price Of One OMORROW night, the Woodward Glee Club will offer a program of two operettas in the auditorium. This offering of the organization will be doubly important this year,because not one operetta will be given, but two. Every production put on requires time and work. Our choral group has put their utmost in trying to make this musical program a success. The support of the student body is most necessary to complete their goal. There has been continuous practice, stage sets, and tedious minor details which had to be carried out, now it is our duty to show our apgreciation. uy your tickets now, and come out to hear one of the Guest glee clubs in the city. Personalities Marian I-Iowington--Zazu Pitts--always talking. Mary Rickerd--Fats Waller--keys-tickler. Jerry Lenning--Red Skelton--I do'd it. Janice Bartlebaugh--Martha Raye--Ohh Mann.

I Q The Japanese War against us was hardly a week old before the whole Uni- ,f , . ted States was ringing with praises of General MacArthur, the gallant de- fender of Bataan. The fact that he with X f his small army although outnumbered if . ' about ten to one was able to hold od' the viscious attacks and even in some in- stances counter attack held the admi- not only all eople loyal to the United States butlthat of all flair minded people every- where. As time went on and he and his army were able to maintain themselves week after week in the face of fierce assaults the admiration rew to hero worship that transcended that of gee, Grant, or Dewey, who had fought so gallantly before him.. It is not the intention in these lines to recount the story of General MacArthur. However, it does make us wonder, what are the qualities of a hero. It is not so much what one does under fire. As a general in the United States Army familiar with all its duties and traditions he performed his difh- cult task just as we would expect. The qualities of heroism are really enhanced or detracted from after the greatest danger is past. You young people should watch the career of this great man in the events to follow. Notice that he has not been boastful or egotistical. When leaving Bataan to go to a greater held of duty and danger he merely said quitlely, I shall return. It was not a boast but a sincere promise to his men made by a sincere leader. The small man is boastful. He is always will- ing to tell you how good he is. When circumstan- ces place him in aposition of power he becomes the arrogant egotistic type that turns all fair-min- ded people from him. We all admire a real hero, a modest hero. Such a one is General MacArthur. Let's pledge our help to our country and to him in order that he may keep that solemn promise because when he returns the Japs will be forever driven from the Phillipines.

P. - Una Poo-- cub reporter was so anxious to jump a scoop that would stick the public solid that she proceeded to cover her beat very thoroughly. By the deadline on the first day, she had accomplished exactly nothing. Of course, we admit she was a dope with a'boxed head who thought more of make-up than of having her caption on the masthead This daily process of nothing accomplished qon- tinued. One day UU. P. decided that she would do something about dead beat. She proceeded to hire a dummy to be her stooge. The following day Una rushe into the citiiroom with the following spectacular story: Slug artin confessed this afternoon to the slaying of George Brice after viewing the dead man's form in the local morgue. Snake Eyes Brice, a prominent leader of lower town crap games, was found dead in his swanky layout early this morning. His body was cut up considerably with his boldfaced head slightly to the left of it and his ears deposited on his stomach. The following day this scoop appeared in head- lines on Una'sEpaper.

Intra-Mural Teams Swing Into Spring Sports Monday The intra-mural teams swung into the spring sports program Monday, with two softball contests. In the first encounter the league-leading Americans dropped a tight ball game to the Rens, 3-2. Captain Bob Brent twirled an air-tight ball and struck out 14 batters to lead his mates to victory. A home-run by Paul Cramer featured the hitting. The other game was exactly the opposite, being a free-hitting with the Polish Lits banging out an 18-6 victory over the Frosh All-Star. A seven-run outburst in both the sec- ond and fourth innings wenp the highlights. Wysocki was the winning pitcher, Sloane the loser. 5 E ON FRANK ARBINGER Left Fielder Tells Of Like For Baseball Coach And B. B. Woodwardites who follow the base- ball games all know that Frank Ar- binger, the Polar Bears left fielder, has been knocking his way to glory in the Toledo High School Baseball league. Chink, as he is called by every- one, sports three letters which he garnered from having berths on both the lightweight and varsity basketball teams. Two years on the Bear nine gave Frank the practice he needed to be a high batter with 7 for 13 hits made. Against Scott Frank clouted 4 for 4, although he failed to score a home run. Standing 6 feet 1, with brown hair and a distinct dislike for chickens fthe ones with feathersl, he believes that the Polar Bear nine has an ex- cellent. chance of coming out high on the final play-offs. Mr. Robie, baseball coach, stands high in his line of swell people, along with a certain B. B. Good luck, Frank, and keep 'em flying! Central Scrimmage Brings Spring Practice To An End Spring football practice ended last week with a scrimmage at Central where the Bears made a good show- ing and exhibited an improving ma- chine. No positions have been picked out except fullback, which will be filled blyi next year's captain, Al Ustaszu- s Despite limited material, Coach Jack Taylor expects a successful year if the boys continue to improve as they have been. The lightweight squad has been cut to 22 members, and the scarcity of reserve material for the varsity team will probably constitute the most important hin- drance. Football practice will be resumed about September 1, while school will open September 8. - FRC SX. Johnny Phillips racked up the low- est score made in the 1942 city league last April 21 against Central. He was 7 over par with a 79 at the Ot- tawa course. ik HF 3 The heavy hitters on the Bear nine since the season opened are Arbinger and Wisniewski. These boys have done much to make Woodward a tough team to beat. HF lk 'F The frosh league champs for the current season are the Wizards. Paul Seymour captains the crew which con- tains: John Anderson, Tom Clayton, Bob Dumonte, Bill Jacobs, Stanley Curwin and Howard Haynes. 'll IF Ill The boys' gym classes have taken to the great out-of-doors and are once again causing feminine hearts to flut- ter as they perform on the indoor diamond. 'F lk IF The annual DeVilbiss night relays will be held May 2, which is next Sat- urday. The preliminaries will be at 3 o'clock and the finals at 8:00. Woodward will participate. AWOODWARD NINE DRoPs 10-5 COUNT TO LIBBEYg BEAR EERRORS Loss GAME BATTER CHATTER Coach Robie's lads have finally hit their stride and have coupled good pitching and power hitting to cop the last two games.: playked. Bob DuPont chalked up his second win at Central's expense, and Dave Kornowa threw a four-hitter at Lib- bey. ' Sk Ulf if The Blue and White have now copped four tilts against losing three. Scott's Bulldogs lead the league. Ik lk lk When Central played Woodward many faces were familiar to basket- ball fans. Among the leaders were Frank Gilhooly, Ned Skeldon, Dave Kornowa and Irv Wisneiwski. Ili HF lil Arbinger and Kornowa continue to pound the ball for a fat average. Jim Knierim's buck fever seems to be a thing of the past and the youthful shortstop has been playing steady ball around the keystone sack. ill HF HK The entire pitching staff has now seen service. Joe Carns lost his first start to Waite, but looked good enough in spots to warrant his being used in relief work in the future. ' 'li 'lf Ik Coach Robie has been relieved of an extra worry by the excellent serv- ice of his backstoppers, Ray Pierce and Red Aubrey. While not long ball hitters, these two have come along fast and now make up one of the best catching staffs the league can boast. Woodward Downs Burnham As Track Squad Hits Stride Led by Jack Wilson the Woodward track and field squad defeated the thin- clad boys from Sylvania Burnham High School, 77 5-6 to 40 1-6. Coach Watson Welever's lads won ten first places with the versatile Wil- son chalking up three first places and one second for an 18 point total. Other Woodwardites winning first place in their events were: B. Burns, 440 yard dash, Bunker, 880 yard run, Duhart, shot put, MscFarland, pole vault, and first place in the half mile and the mile relays. P. Cramer, H. Cramer, Jackson, Wil. son, Boggs, Ressler, Stevens and Wis' niewsk came in second in their events- Golembiewski and Davis ran third in their respective events. Bear Tennis Squad Upsets Libbey Last Tuesday, 5-4 The Woodwr rd tennis squad finally broke into the win column Tuesday with a sparking 5 4 upset over Libbey. Dick Sheline started the point getting by winning the first singles 6-3, 1 6, 6-4. Bob Sheline then dropped a tough set in the second singles 4-6 and 4-6. The first doubles team Bob Tuite and Allyn Rollo swept to victory 6-1, 6 4. The second doubles was won by Clziuck Pauken and Don Ruif, 6-4 and 6- . .

Eighth Inning Rally No Goodg Cowboys Get To DuPont In Fourth The Bear Baseballers gallantly went down before a tribe from Lib- bey last Monday by a 10 to 5 mar- gin. Although the Bear pitchers, Du- Pont and Carnes, allowed but six hits the fielding was exceptionally poor for seven men reached first base on errors. The offensive on the local team was led by George Aubry who connected for a pair of singles. Frank Arbinger got the longest hit of the game, a double, in the fourth with Aubry on first. A rally was started in the sixth by the North Enders but the lead built up by Libbey in the earlier stages of the game proved too big an obstacle to overcome. The sixth frame was opened by Kornowa who fouled out. Aubry then lined a hit to left field. After Arbinger flew out to the cen- ter-fielder, the Libbey moundsman made an error on a ball topped to him by Wisniewski. Momberg and Getz in rapid succession lined hits into left field to help along the four runs brought in that inning. The side was retired when Whier flew out to centerfield. Only one man reached the initial sack in the last frame, Getz on a walk, but his teammates were unable to bring him around the diamond. Also Win One The Woodward Polar Bears at a previous engagement humbled the Central nine, 8 to 2, on the Bears' home field. Bob DuPont, Bear hurler, put on an excellent performance when he held the fighting Irish to but four hits. Hits were plentiful to the Bears for 12 hits were collected throughout. The first and third innings were the big ones for the locals for seven hits were hunched to give them six runs in those two frames. Dave Kor- nowa was the heavy hitter for the Bears, connecting for a double and a pair of singles. Batting Averages A.B. H. Ave. 11 6 540 G. Aubry ...,..,.....,,......,. , B.

Libby, last years league champions, garnered a close win by a 4 point ad- vantage last Tuesday April 28, at the Ottowa Hill course. Woodward proved itself an opponent to watch and fear, as a possible league champion to other high school teams. John Phillips, repeating his steller showing captured a low 82. Bob Harter followed closely with an 84. Seymour came in with 92. Lee with a 90, Gerow with a 94 and Osberger with a 104. - Spanish Club Enjoys Tea Yerba Mate tea, which comes from South America, was thoroughly enjoy- ed by the members of the Spanish Club, April 28.

Arlene, a vivacious, brown-eyed, brown-haired senior, will play the leading role of Jane Jackson, the heroine, in the operetta tomorrow night. After a long period of interroga- tion, the facts leaked out that she liked all kinds of sports, all her sub- jects, dancing, singing, chow mein, and that she will attend Capitol University in Columbus to study music upon graduating this year. This lassie seems mighty easy to please, as she lists no dislikes. She is seventeen years old and celebrated her last birthday on Octo- ber 16. Her 5 feet 6 inches of vitality is usually seen with Miriam Brotje. Dick Miller I always liked to sing, stated brown-haired, brown-eyed Dick Mil- ler, playing the part of the judge in Trial by Jury. This six feet two inches of he-man weighing 165 pounds claims chicken, mashed potatoes and gravy are his favorites along with a certain Miami University lass. As a member of the Orpheus Club, a men's organization of singers, Dick has been singing minor roles in the Civic Opera Com- pany for the past two years in his second bass voice. Because this is a Gilbert and Sul- livan production and another operetta added, I think tomorrow night's show will be a success, stated the vice- president of the advanced chorus.

A com- mittee from the Polish Club judges the applicants on their scholastic standing, activity in school affairs, and various other things.
