We have adopted ' an endeavor to increase th We p an in your yearbook. sen the theme The Wild and W est ' hoping that we can portray th from east to west which coasts to f ooly e great movemen eventually connected our sea orm our great nation as it is today. We, the Saga Staff invite you to turn the pages of is, our product. We hope thatyou will enjoy read- ing it as much as we have enjoyed producing it S. uw EEEUEETUEW A real all around gentleman can truly be found in Mr. James Pollock. Jovial and 'full of 'fun his character can be found in only great people. Anyone who has as- sociated with him knows that the latter has the correct answer for practically every question asked of him. His motto is, Learn to think the right way, and with this thought he has met success every- where. For a job well done we thank you, Mr. Pollock-a true edu- cator in every field. The Builders A builder builded a temple, He wrought it with grace and skill, Pillars and groins and arches-ef All fashioned to work his will And men said as they saw its beauty: lt shall never know decay, Great is thy skill, O Builder! Thy fame shall endure for aye. A teacher builded a temple With loving and infinite care, Planning each arch with patience, Laying each stone with prayer. None praised the unceasing efforts, But 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 cunsuming rust, But the temple the teacher builded Will last while the ages roll, For that beautiful, unseen temple Was a child's immortal soul. Unknown By precept and example Miss Louise Tippett has taught us that the moral way plain and not unattrac- tive, full of grace and easy, yet methodical, that it consists of doing well each smallest task, that integrity and loyality have indefinable and endless worth. Among the possessors of the greatest qualities of life we 'find Miss Annie Wetterman. Through her leadership Woodward has ben en- riched with priceless teachings. Nearly every section of our school contains a sample of her achieve- mentshall based on kindness and generosity. With this in mind it can plainly be seen that a loss of such a person at Woodward is greatly felt-but Miss Wetterman will ale ways live in the minds and hearts of our high school. Senior Boy's Editor Senior Girl's Edi'or Editorein-Chief ROBERT JOHNSON FADWA MICKEL SHIRLEY FOXE MR. RAYMOND K. SHELINE TOM BURNEP Junior Art Editor NANCY SEIBOLD Advisor Senior Art Editor Advisor MRS. HAZEL McMANAMON Llgd Producing a yearbook that can maintain the standard set by those before cannot be accomplished by one, two, or even three people. lt takes many, all working together for the same cause, to edit a year- book that we can all be proud of. This year we had a staff numbering thirteen which included the following: Joanne Mattes, business manager, who handled the book and kept our bills paid, Ursula Cutsinger, our very capable typist, who contributed much to the edition, Fadwa Mickel and Robert Johnson, senior editors, Patricia Stickroth and Richard Steger, sports' editors, Charles Gaiewski, class editor, Duane Tigges, club editor, Marion Antonini, Assistant class and club editor, and Joanne Konop, who had charge of the faculty section. Last, but not least, is the Art Department. Often the members of this department are overlooked, but this year the art work has been care- fully planned and carried out to the very limit. The two art editors, Tom Burnep, Senior, and Nancy Seibold, Junior, deserve a vote of thanks for their months of hard and fruitful labor. Even a staff is not enough to publish an annual. There must bc advisers and printers. To say we had good ones would be an under- Staff statement for as English adviser there was the charming little lady, Mrs. Hazel McManamon. Her helpful suggestions and sound advice were a great factor in the production of this book. The printshop supplied us with two great gentlemen, Mr. Hugh Montgomery and Mr. Joseph Stobinski. Without their valuable aid you would not be reading these words now. These men spent much of their time and patience in helping us get this book to you. Give credit where credit is due, is an old motto that leaves 'this Saga staff with but one thought in mind. That thought is of Raymond K. Sheline, lovingly known as Pop who stood by us through thick and thin, advanced many suggestions, and acted as tthe guiding hand through these nine eventful and thrill packed months. To say Thanks would not be enough because our feeling for Pop is so great that it never could be put into words. With this farewell, we the Saga Staff, relinquish our positions and wish the next year's staff under Joanne Konop volumes of luck.

Life's pathway has many branches upon which we can travel. The choice of which we will take will of course be upon our shoulders, but behind each decision will be the impression left by our teachers who have served so faithfully.

Now we are ready to graduate into a world of problems that may mean the beginning or the end for a world ' d a world. of peace.

The answer to this question lies with you, the individual. ROBERT AUBRY President ERNIE SIMPSON DOLLY ROZNOSKI MARION ANTONINI mio? Class 0 jicetzs Fellow Students: This is our last year and our best year. We have looked forward to graduation with great anticipation. Now the time has come, but are we as happy as we thought we should be at the thought of leaving Woodward? l om sure that in the future we shall leaf through our yearbooks and remember our understanding principal, Mr. La Rue, our learned leaders, the Faculty, and our classmates, a splended group of boys and girls. l, for one, consider it a privilege to have attended such a fine institution as Wood- ward High School.

K K MISS AMIE MILLER anal uqclvisofzs You have come to the close of that adventure you started on four years ago when you entered Woodward High School. lt, no doubt, seemed like a long and difficult journey to most of you when you started. You who have completed the trip are to be congratulated, for you are the select of the Freshmen who started in September, 1944. At that time 290 boys and 282 girls enrolled as Freshmen at Woodward. More than 50 per cent of those 572 boys and girls have quit school or left Wood- ward to enter other high schools. The 125 boys and 160 girls who comprise the Class of 1948 can justly be proud of their success as students. We have enioyed working with this fine group of young men and women and wish you all success and happiness in the future. C. M. MEEK AMIE MILLER Advisors MR.

I was looking over a list of applicants for positions as teachers at the newly erected Woodward High School, when I noticed that Phyllis Sosnowicz, Alice Waldo, Joanne Leibovitz, and Joanne Lukasiewicz had applied. The names sounded fa- miliar, and I wondered if they were-could they be the same ones with whom I was graduated. As I looked back through the 1948 Saga, I saw that they had signed the Future Teachers of America Charter with me at a tea in the old Wood- ward Library. How well I remember that day! Forest Black had been elected President, and Joe Shibley, Vice President. Forest now edits the Sports Review, a monthly maga- zine published by the Breneman Publishing Corporation, ancl Joe heads the Shibley- Fenady Chemical Corporation. I wonder if he still preaches Shibleyism ? My phone rang, and when I lifted the receiver I saw Bob Johnson on my television plate. He told me he would be in town for a few days before he left for Texas, and would like me to help him get in touch with some of the boys and girls with whom we had graduated. I agreed, and we made a date for luncheon at the Reynold's Restaurant that afternoon. Perhaps you didn't know it, but Bob is producer and designer of the new Johnsonmobile, a car that sails, flies, and has a small compartment in it that con- verts into a miniature kitchen at the press of a button. I walked over to the window and looked down at the beautiful gardens that surrounded the building. It must have taken Joe Mosko a long time to plan their intricate designs. Why, I can remember when he sat next to me in my sociology class-but I awoke from my dreams when the clock struck twelve. I had a Board of Trustees Meeting at twelve-ten. I met Bob in front of the restaurant, and we entered, only to be greeted by Genevieve Reynolds. She and her sister, Juanita, operated the place. It seems they bought it a few months ago from Betty Lou Edwards, who flew to Texas to be head dietitian at Steger's Memorial Hospital. How did you come, Bob, by jet plane or one of your cars? I asked. On the Golden Flyer Line, the railroad that Mack Holt owns. The power unit of his line was perfected by the Verbon Engineering Company. LeRoy, Russell, and Bob have revolutionized the railroad world. I can remember when they almost revolutionized the schooI, I replied. Bob, glancing through the sports section of the paper he had brought on his way down here, noticed the picture of Bob Aubry receiving a medal for outstand- ing athletic prowess. He was, for the second time, to head the United States Olympic Team. Kenneth LaFountaine, city manager, was presenting the medal. Say, listen to this! he exclaimed, John Garcynski, owner of the Cleveland Browns, has signed up Duane Tigges and Jack Smith at 550,000 a year. Why, Bob, I thought that Duane would go into politics. He was always such a staunch Republican. Didn't they all call him Dewey 'or something like that? Before parting that afternoon, we made a date to see Pat PawIak's Scandals of 1958 featuring the charming Bobbie Bolden, whose singing would make a banana iealous when it came to appeal. Scandals was opening at the Arvay Theater on St. Clair Street, where Rivoli and Palace Theaters used to be. While walking back to the Board, I noticed all the buildings that had been built in the last few years as a part of the Toledo Tomorrow project. Davis Business College has been replaced by Joanne Sackman's Secretarial School. Dorothy Miller is in charge of the stenography department, and Eleanor Epperly, office practice machines. Louise Darali teaches typing. Last year Louise won the title of the WorId's Speediest Typist when she typed two hundred words per minute at the contest held in New York. Eugene Hollinger bought out Walgreen's Drugstore a few years ago, and had it completely remodeled. It is reputed to be one of the most beautiful drugstores in Ohio. Ernie Simpson changed Taval's Decorators into deluxe photo studio. He used to specialize in baby pictures until he found it more fun to take pictures of babes. Since it was three-thirty, and I had a conference at four o'clock, I hailed an air taxi. It was one of those King-Reissig Fly-By-Nights, piloted by Dick Bucholz. Soon after we got in the air, we had to make a forced landing while a big bruis- ing cop hurled infinitives at Bucholz. Dick gently chided back, Tch, tch, Mr. Police- man, don't you remember Mrs. McManamon's teaching, Never, never spit an in- finitive? Jack Munger, officer behind the brass buttons, came back with, Mr. Speaker, do you realize--? but he got no further. Having recognized each other, Bucholz and Munger both shouted, Don't be an Unga, vote for Munger! They never did get over their campaign speech of 1947, when Jack was running for Sergeant-at- Arms of the Senior Class. As I alighted from the cab, I glanced at the clock in the center of the block and noticed that I would be late if I did not hurry. The clock was a beautiful one, and a gift to the city from Evelyn Nawrocki, world famous watchmaker. Bob picked me up at seven-thirty in his Johnsonmobile. We sailed across the Maumee River, and then flew over to Bill Moore's Skylight Garage, across from the Arvay Theater. Bill employed girls for attendants because they attracted more cus- tomers. lt was here that we found Monna Roth and Emily Rucinski filing each others fingernails for business was bad that night. Entering the theater we came upon many famous and well-known personali- ties. Talking to Irene Nuszbaum of The Egg and Me fame was Thelma Netry, wife of our ambassador to Finland. Bob pointed to two women standing near the en- trance and said, Say, don't those two look familiar? I'd swear I had seen them some place before. Certainly you have. Thot's Dolly Rosnoski and Rita Palicki. Don't you remem- ber those silly poems they used to write? Let's go over and talk to them. They might know something about some of our old cIassmates. As usual they knew everything about everyone, and were quite willing to re- late some of the facts in-their own iingling manner: After driving a mail plane from bad to worse, Llewellyn Watson now drives a hearse. Carol McNutt pounded keys to win fame, Good work, Carol, it's sure a great game. While Betty Hoffman, with her dizzy blond hair, Can vamp her boss from his office chair. Virginia Wells makes Dad a mighty fine wife, In the Rutkowski household there is no strife. Tea will be served at the sound of a ring, When you go to visit Alberta Woodring. Dick Ubl is working far out at sea, While Rosie Smith stays home and brews his tea. Marion Sterling cashed in on her name, Sterling's silver is on its way to fame. With wives like Mary Hafner and Katherine Slates, Their husbands are thoughtful and never late. Dick Dressel was always a mighty smart lad, Now his six children all call him Dad. Elsie Rutkai is an artist I hear, She plays the accordion and not by ear. As a poet he's famed throughout East and West, For Bob Kinnear has become another Ed Guest. Pot Dynes, who loved to sing all day, Made that her career, and how it does pay. With both eyes on the girls, and his feet on the ground, Life to Bob Puls is a merry-go-round. While Leah Shaheen sails 'round the equator, Rosemarie Zulka runs an elevator. Handsome Henry Roth is a counter spy, While his Joannie Mattes stays home and cooks with Spry. Venus Geanopulos who never would shirk, Is doing her bit in social work. Now here is one who sells pots and pans. Who is that? Why, Mary Callahan.

Marilyn Leafgreen, with her knowledge and skill, Plays golf with the best, and sure drives that pill. Stumping the sticks with a campaign speech, Is Mitchell Sahadi with a political job in reach.

Jack Sobczack is an under taker fine, He undertakes iobs as his daily grind. Catherine Thabit, a lady quite fair, Now works laboriously dressing hair.

Bob Schnur when you meet him again, Will be frying eggs at Sally Davis' Inn. David Zink is an usher-an usher who treats, He tells everyone that there are plenty of seats. Since it was time for the show to start, we left the lobby and Ernie Nidek, head usher, escorted us to our seats. We were seated next to Bob Thin Man Jones, the supersleuth, who kept us entertained until the music began and flame colored curtains went up. The curtain was beautiful, and looking at my program I found that Schmidt and Rybarczyk had designed the curtains and background for the Scandals, Could that be Joyce and Bob? The show opened with Jerry Pokrywka and Ralph Wise in a comedy called Scrooge's Millions Backfiref' It was an entertaining little skit and went over well with the audience. This was followed by a chorus of boys and girls in scintillating green and black costumes, which were designed by Irene Nakos, and featuring Marvin Carnes, the Cyclone of the Keyboard. The chorus included: Lena Gibson Fred Lisk Dorothy Holly Phyliss Schiffler Paul Tarkon Anna Hille Frances Waltermeyer Yvonne Johnson Ely Willard Rita Pinski Dolores Kanfeld Catherine Harris Helen Suschik Maebell Jelks Peggy Hartz Shirley Donnells During the intermission I glanced into the orchestra pit, and saw several familiar faces. Among them were Shirley Reichlin, Phyliss Wolfe, Louetta Vorderbrugger, and Chester Habrvck. Calls for the author brought out Al Jakubowski, another of our old classmates. Flowers from Ziokowski, Van Grenton, and Zakrzewski, the attractive and well-dressed ushcrettes were delivered on stage by Zoltanski, Zukowski, and Ziehr. Art Bartkowicz slipped into the seat next to Johnson, and immediately began to tell us about his trip to Hicksburg, Texas. It seems he ran into quite a few of our classmates out there, and not figuratively either. After that run-in he had to spend a week at Richard Steger's Memorial Hospital for broken down old souls. Engraved over the entrance is the following quotation: I AM THE BIGGEST QUACK IN THE WORLD, put there by Dick himself. Shirley Foxe is head obstetrician and is quite successful, even though she doesn't get too many patients for the hospital is for broken down old souls. The art of chiropractering is known to Dave Saygers alone. After he takes out the aches where they are and puts them in where they aren't, the patient is sent to John Sinkovic in the X-ray department. If the patient is really iniured, John iust points his machine at the spot and burns it out. Art was put in the same room with Bob Schiesl, weight lifter. He was so muscle bound that he was tied up into small knots. They were beginning to untie him the day Art left. Pat Stickroth is one of the cooks out there, and tries her delicacies out on Eddie Lair. Eddie, who is a doctor, makes medicines to cure himself after eating Pat's food: and he can't understand why he never gets well. Clarence Fyffe leads the Salvation Army. Well, he always did want to be a drum major. Our attention was diverted by a commotion in the back of the room. Who is that gorgeously attired woman coming down the aisle? I inquired. The woman in question wore small placards, some of which read-Coiffure by Schiel, Gown by Schuff, Jewelry by Scott and Weiss, and Makeup by Hansen. This custom is all the rage nowadays, and it was nothing to see a woman walkin down the street so overloaded with lacards that one could not make out 9 P her attire. Bob thought it to be Katie Mikolsg and her escort resembled David Kott, world famous chemist who discovered that H20 was a deadly gas. Glancing through the audience we saw several familiar faces. A few rows buck was petite Joan Marok escorted by Ray Farmer Jones Varner. Dorothy Foss was trying to induce Dolores Hudzinski to call Barbara LaMont about their canary's insomnia. Tom Burnep, looking very uncomfortable in a Tux, was leaning toward a lovely creature who turned out to be Ursula Cutsinger. Donna McClellan and Georgette Micholak were doing their best to keep James Spross from snoring by Stuffing their programs up his nose. Rita Syzmanski, Frances Tegtmeyer, Pat Thornton, and Mary Nelson were sitting in one little group talking away for all they were worth, while Jane Pacholak was writing her daily letter to her beloved on an expedition to Mars. Marcella Hamrick and Alma Hampton were earnestly talking to Richard Harris, while Mary Pennington and Florence Nissen were adjusting their finger guards before plunging into a large box of popcorn. Johnson and I left before the final curtain to organize a supper party. We found Frank Swanson, the mad physicist, and he agreed that a little get together would be enjoyed by all, especially since we had Chuck Gajewski, the famous comedian present. Chuck and a few others eagerly accepted our invitation to Emma Oliver's Olive Club, where they served everything but olives. The club was shaped like a large Spanish olive, and the red door was opened for us by Malcolm Johnson, but not until Johnson slipped him a fin, and Christine Cottrell and Eileen Donahue'took our wraps. We soon found out that the entire staff was made up of Woodward High graduates. Margaret Pyles was setting at the piano in a secluded corner singing blues songs to herself. Nancy Penman, Margaret Querin, Ruth Elston, and Delores Ragan are only a few whom we found working there. Louis Dudek, head waiter led us to a large center table, where we could have an excellent view of the floorshow. Soon after we were seated Nosey Leon Zawisza ambles up to our table to get the latest dope for his feature column. I'II wager you he got plenty of it, for everyone, after a few shots of olive juice, was ready to elaborate on any subject, including themselves. 1 -1 I - r n l 1 The floorshow opened with Bob Patton's Orchestra playing his theme song, Oh, l.ord, Help Me Through Physics. The drums began to roll and out danced Joan Murphy in a specialty dance called Senorita Murphy's LaConga, accompanied by Ortensia Munoz, Rosemarie Lewandowski, and Mary Jane Hull. This was followed by a routine from the Zaborowski girls, Gloria, and Rita, who just returned from an engagement at the Toledo Scotch Theatre, where they put over the song God Save the String. This theatre is very popular with the men because the women have to pay the admission. One can frequently see Richard Newman and Walter Markiecki there. After the regular floor show was over, the members of our party decided to put one on themselves. Darrel Truit needed no coaxing to dance a rumba with Elaine Szumigala, while John Klackowski played some background music on the piano. Not too outdone by a mere dance, Dolores Slowinski, Dorotha Bratt, Beverly Chadwick, and Theresa Stachowiak got up and sang To Be a Woodwardite. Jack Paisie and Phil Brunskill decided that they needed another round of olive juice, if they were to continue on in such a hilarious fashion, and called upon Del- phine Blawat and Joan Bogdanski to deliver it to them. Betty Jane Steinbart, Evelyn Hero, Gertrude Vermett, and Gloria Wrobel did another song and dance to the enjoyment of everyone. Barbara Zaenger then gave the tost, Here's to a wonderful and happy future for the class of '48, which was accompanied by a loud applause. A few moments later, Lawrence Banchowski received a phone call from his wife, the former Catherine Urbanowicz, who wanted to know what he was doing here at five o'clock in the morning. Larry knew by the tone of her voice that he had better be on his way. So he left. We were all having such a grand time we didn't realize it was so late, or should I say early. Johnson and I said our goodby's to the crowd and walked out just as the sun was casting a pink haze over the sky in the beginning of a new day.

They are your representatives. The council originally consisted of fourteen members and for the first year it was considered to be a temporary arrangement. But during this first year this group proved itself to be a valuable asset. As time passed the advisers found it necessary to add four new members to the original membership of fourteen. Along with the increase in membership came additional projects. During this year they have supervised activities in the auditorium, taken tickets for most of the school affairs during the day, promoted the sale of war bonds and stamps, and sponsored the hall patrol and clean-up week. They have fulfilled their duties faithfully and so they deserve our humble gratitude. The officers of the council this year are: John Sinkovic-President Joyce Young-Vice President Helen Korecki--Secretary Andy Douglas-Executive Officer The other members include: lrene Nuszbaum, Lewellyn Watson, Frances Walter- meyer, Rudy Renz, Gloria Gaeth, Edwin Blaszkiewicz, Don Cukierski, Nancy Barne, Norma Dutterer, Richard Lewis, Billie Arnold, Suzie Rensch, Helen Marie Maika, Viola Frisch. as W!-,, ' .Nw sri A 1 J N 1' Wi' ' Kurziofz an ' 'icefzs f-:-1' Class f ff Students of the Junior Class: Again our class has come to the end of another successful year. Many students often present this question, What is meant by a successful year? Success is defined as the bringing about of a prosperous termin- ation or any enterprise by working toward that goal. The goal of the Junior Class has been to work together to form a smoothly operating class organization that will leave behind a good impression on the faculty and the students of Woodward High School. l believe our class has achieved that goal and thus has had a successful year. Now the time has come for us to look ahead. The coming year will be our last at Woodward, and we shall all want to expend our utmost efforts in making it our best. We shall be able to do this by supporting the cabinet of our class next year in all its undertakings. lf this is done, I am sure we shall make our class one of the most commemorable ones Woodward has ever had. Sincerely yours, Richard Perry, President President, Richard Perry, Vice President, Tom Papps, Secretary, Nancy Harter, Treasurer, Ronnie Barrow, Reporter, Jack DeBord, and Sergeant- at-arms, Ted Rokicki.

L-'L Li' N l i i gg b Many things happened behind the sport's curtain this year and among them was the capturing of fifth place in the city standings by the Bruin football team. They, as a group, showed courage and sportsmanship when they came off the field as well as when they came on it! A hearty cheer for coach Elmer Vorderburg and his fine team who brought more enjoyment through their clean sport than th ey, themselves, may realize. Coach Wilson Weis now has two years as head basketball coach behind him. He and his team played with zeal and annexed a berth in the city league. They played hard and to the best of their ability. The other sports were many in number but did a wonderful job by training our boys physically, morally and mentally. Their fields were varied and opened to many the feeling of competitive sports. With these fine coaches and students our athletic program was, indeed, a part of this school that no one could ever forget. 'W '- h 'w '1 I ' R x b S - sv l R C- C- LURUE A- SMWH MR. ARNOLD J.

Mlooownmo i H 12 4 TATTLER STAFF Every Friday during sixth hour we could always count on a pleasant interlude while we read four printed pages familiarly known as the Tattler. This newspaper is a working, breathing part of our school life, and the Tattler deserves an enormous vote of thanks for the production of a paper which gives us the news regularly. Again this year Mrs. Marie Ersig was at the head of things, prodding, urdging, and giving her helpful advice when it was needed. Surely no one can say anything better than, She's tops. Mr. Joseph Stobinski and Mr, Hugh Monte gomery added their assistance in the printf shop to make the Tattler an attractive paper. We can be very proud of the 'fact that the Tattler is completely written and printed here at Woodward. The staff this year included: Richard Dressel, Editor, Doris Basilius, Managing Editor, Phyllis Sosnowicz, News Editor, Leon Zawisza, Feature Editor, Rita Palicki, Special Feature Editor, Irene Nakos, Ex- change Eclitor, Forrest Black, Boys' Sports Editor, Norbert Bankowski, Assistant Boys' Sports Editor, Dolores Roznoski, Girls' Sports Editor, and Patricia Becker, Column Editor. Bl 'm ,,. woonWARD T TTLERC S.,..,.,l Co tl,Co 'tetlCo tructi -- g Days! eg gnstan y nszs n y ns ve gl Days! Ll Vol. XX Toledo, Ohio, September 12, 1947 No. 1 NEW STAFF EDITS FIRST TATTLER At the close of the first week of school in the 47-48 scholastic year, many freshman are reading their first Tattler, and all students at Wood- ward are reading the first issue of this year. To help you more fully appreciate these editions, we would like to explain a few points which are connected with, and vitally impor- tant to, the publication of the Tat- tler. l The first of these deals with the way in which the Tattler stall' is chosen. It all begins in your sopho- more year when students with high grade average are invited to attend a beginners, journalism class. In this class they learn the fundamen- tals of news, writing. Their junior year they serve as reporters and put the knowledge they gained the pre- vious year into practice. At the close of their junior year they receive posi- tions in which capacity they 'serve during their senior year. The posi- tions are voted on by the juniors themselves, and the seniors of the staff. The second point we would like to bring to your attention is the price at which your Tattler sells. While most school papers sell at ten cents, the Tattler has sold, for year after year, and will continue to sell for three cents. This low cost is made possible by the fact that the Tattler is set up and printed here in school. We, the members of the staff, write the paper, but it's Joe Stobinski and the boys in the print shop, who print it and see that it's ready for you by Friday. They are a vital part of the Tattler. Staff positions for this year are: Dick Dressel, editorg Doris Basilius, managing editor, Phyllis Sosnowicz, news editorg Leon Zawisza, featureg Rita Palicki, 'special featureg Forrest Black, boys' sports, Skeeter Bonkow- ski. assistant sports: Dolly Roznoski girls' sportsg Pat Becker, column edi- tor: Marilyn Gribbin, item editor, Marilyn Leafgreen, business manager, and Irene Nakos as exchange editor. Juniors who will serve in the capa- city of reporters are: Betty Best, Alice Horton, Sue Ignatawiz, Pat Kaczmarck, Theresa Kaminski, Helen Korecki. Barbara Kubacki, Mary Jane Miller, Tom l'apps, Ted Rokicki, Mira Slichinski, Doris Urban, and Henry Wieczorck. No Parking! Now that school has begun a law has been passed that there will be no parking on Streicher Street since the school busses stop there. Due to this fact, teachers and students will have to park their cars else- where. Parking behind the school will be checked every day as the students and teachers fail to consider each other and take up more room than necessary. 7 Student Enrollment Poor First day enrollment showed 1024 students enrolled in Woodward High School. The seniors rank the lowest in number, 302. The remainder con- sist of 426 juniors, 421 sophomores, and 475 freshmen. Brown Gets Student Help Assisting Arnold J. Brown in the athletic office during first hour are Irene Stajszczak, Dorothy Piotrawski, and Pat Felkner. Helping seventh hour is Marilyn McFarland. These girls do clerical work and sell tickets to the games and movies. THREE NEW FACULTY MEMBERS ' ADDED TO FILL SIX VACANCIES There's been some changes made and Woodward has its share. Among them we find three new faculty mem- bers attempting to fill six vacant spaces. One of the most important of these will take place in the print shop. Joseph Stobinski will divide his time :ind classes between 219 and 206. The first half of the period will be spent in 219 for book lessons and the remaining hour in 206 actually setting type. Hugh Montgomery will shoulder the remaining duties in 206 with the assistance of Joseph Blow- ers, a June graduate, leaving Mr. Stobinski free to spend more time with the Saga and Tattler. Pollock, Tippett Retire The history department has a much more serious problem to deal with because of the retirement of James Pollock and Miss Louise Tippett. Miss Camilla Savage has taken over the Sociology and World Problems, which were previously taught by Mr. Pollock. Miss Bertha Vermilya has switched from World History to the American History course, while Vir- gel Sloan, a new addition to the teaching staff, will teach World His- tory in 118. Since Arnold Brown, athletic direc- tor, spends three-fourths of his time in the Athletic Office, it was decided that he hold his classes in 154 instead Of 308. With the resignation of Miss Dor- othea Bishop from the Student Coun- cil, and the fact that Watson Wele- ver is taking over the reins, he has also left the third floor, and will now reside in 146. Van Vranken Returns The Commercial' department can boast the return of Mrs. Isla Van Vranken, who fills in Miss Dorothy Warner's absence, to 302 to teach Typing I and III. A new face will be seen in the girls' gym filling the vacancy left by the departure of Mrs. Jane Taylor. Mrs. Elizabeth Ollendorf, who has previously taught at Point Place and Waite High, will assist Miss Cath- erine McClure in 267 with the teach- ing of volleyball, basketball, and so on to the feminine half of the fresh- mafn class. ' Summer Weddings During the summer months three faculty members took that ever fatal step. Of course, we're referring to the marriages of Charles C. LaRue, principal, and Roman Scherer, auto mechanics teacher. The third being Miss Dorothy Warner who changed her name to Mrs. Charles LaRue. Best wishes to our newly weds. BURKETT ACCEPTS CLUB ADVISORYSHIP Last May, before Miss Dorothy Warner happily completed plans for her summer marriage to Charles La Rue, she spent a few weeks in search of a new advisor for the Zeta- lethean Literary Society. Her choice, Mrs. Bessie Burkett, was unanimous- ly accepted by the Zet Cabinet at a roast Tuesday, August .26, at the home of Miss Patricia Stlckroth, this year's president of the society. The first regular Zet meeting was called after school Wednesday, for the purpose of introducing Mrs. Burkett to her new society. Mrs. Burkett teaches general math and algebra in 319. - . I The entire Zetalethean society wish to extend their thanks to Mrs. La Rue for her thoughtfulness and considera- tion of them, and wish her all the happiness in the world in the years to come. On Wednesday morning C. C, La- Rue informed all studentswho signed up for this new course that they would be eliminated if they had any knowledge of driving, possessed a driving license, or prove to be under classmen, Rules 'as these wereset up because of our crowded conditions. At present two-thirds of the class are senior girls. V Freshmen To Paint Shop The industrial, survey classes of Joy E. Mohrhandt are clean1ng'up the shop by doing a little painting. Using focal colbring to paint the machines and shbp is the project.of these boys. Foqal color is to bring certain parts in gdistinction from the rest of the machdne. By psing focal colors on switches or mam parts, it will enable the Worker to find them quickly. The machine is painted vista green, which at present is a little difficult in obtaining. ' Working problems, fixing models, and painting the shoqj are all being done by the freshmen oys. B l V .. . .. .- .s-...P - :---- 414, - Hazel McManamon Takes 10,000 Mile Summer Trip Taking trips seem to be Mrs. Hazel McManamon's hobby. This year saw Mrs. McManamon take a trip, which upon termination, was added up to have covered over 10,000- miles. Reaching Seattle, Washington, by rail, she went to live with an old friend for six weeks. On week ends Mrs. McManamon, accompanied by her friends, saw various points of in- terest including Grand Coulee Dam, Vancouver, Victoria, Mt. Ranier, and the Olympian Peninsula. Another visit was made to Port- land, .where ten days were spent in enjoying the scenery and interests of the terrain. Mt. Hood, Columbia River Highway, and Crater Lake were among the interesting parts seen. Upon leaving Seattle she followed the coast route and the Redwood Highway to Sacramento. During the itinerary a tree was seen which mea- sured 29 feet in diameter and 91 feet in circumference. Another interest- ing tree was found to be 364 feet high and 200 feet to the first limb. Mrs. McManamon entrained for home -in Sacramento, California. We'll really start the year off right by giving everyone a hearty welcome, and by wishing all the freshmen good luck. Believe ine, they'll need it!! 'l' Sk The members of the staff would like to take this opportunity to thank Mrs. Vivian Ballerin. We now have three typewriters that really type down in the TRO. tshankks to her. I promised a few boys on the light- weight squad that I would put their names in the Tattler if they would donate to the BTO Fund. Beans Beiniek, Frank Mohr, Bill Krell, Francis Harris, Bob Phillips, and Ronald Thompson are responsible for the 35.44 we now have in the fund. Mostly though I would like to thank Davy Parks for helping me collect the money, and Barney Jesinowski for the sandwich he gave me. , 4 .JPL ,Y. , .. . .,...x s,g'.1i.'.. .1.,-.axe , ' 2' CROUSE TO TEACH DRIVING COURSE Sportsmanlike Driving is the new course now being offered to juniors and seniors. Correct rules and the proper ways to handle the car will be taught. Four days each week will be devoted to textbook work, with the other day being used for demonstra- tion with a dual control car. In preparation for the teaching of this course, Mrs. Mary Crouse at- tended a special class at Ohio State University. Only teachers attending this class are permitted to be in- structors. Only forty-five students will be permitted to take this course, as it is only to be given during the fourth hour. Those not able to take the subject the first semester will have a chance during the second semester. At the end of the semester a test will be given and if passed, the stu- dent will receive his driver's license. Only unexperienced drivers may take the course. Fees will be 31.50. Welcome, Frosh As the custom is to tell the greenies what's what, and who's who in Wood- ward, I shall now tell you kiddies a story. You upper classmen who are so- phisticated needn't listen, 'cuz I know you never throw your bottles on the floor, and always wait in line as you're supposed to. Of course the upper classmen al- ways co-operate with the faculty help in the cafeteria and movie. So any misdemeanor reported by Miss Ethel Kerlin, Miss Dorthea Bishop, Miss Belle Joseph, Miss Marjorie Hamil- ton, Watson Welever in the auditor- 1um or Joy E. Mohrhardt, O. M. Thompson, or Mrs. Marie Ersig in the cafeteria is, of course, the Frosh's fault. , So Greenies, just follow your older upper classmen, and you'll be sure to have 141 for your home-room. Fee Deadline Set Within the next five weeks of school student fees must be paid in full. The visual education fee has been lowered from 15 cents, last year's amount, to .10 cents. This fee will be collected in all first hour classes. ' Initial Grid Mass Meeting Held In Boys' Gym Today A mass meeting was held during the B schedule today to send the Grid Bears off to Lima in the right spirit. Principal Charles C. LaRue introduced the main speakers which included Coach Elmer Vorderburg who acquainted the varsity team with the student body. This meeting was sponsored by the Woodward Tattler. Shortly after- wards the team left for Lima by bus. The game starts at 8:00 o'clock. Miss Annie Wetterman, who was injured last year, is now in the Marigardi Convalescent Home on the corner of West Bancroft and Glen- wood Avenue. Miss Wetterman would greatly appreciate any cards or visit- ors. Visiting hours are from 2:00 p.m. to 4:30 p.m., and from 7:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. ak at is K Wedding Bells rang out for quite a few ex-Woodwardites this past summer. Among the grads were Ger- trude Steiner, Pat Raymond, Pat Janowiecki, Rosie Farran, Ralph Ga- jewski, Bonnie Bridges, and Bob Hamilton. ' - ' 7. 1 THE WOODWARD TATFLER 4 Ray Varner Exploding out of the old Notre Dame box formation shift, iVood- ward High -easily took grid honors at the Newsboys' football premiere last Friday before 17,- 000 people as defending city champion Libbey fell 13-0 before the stunning onslought of the Polar Bears. Other teams to tal- ly were Central with seven points against Scott and Libbey, who came back to score twice upon the Bulldogs. Varner Passes to Golden Immediately after receiving the kickoff from the Cowboys in the initial contest of the evening, Woodward drove 88 yards to tal- ly with Ray Varner flinging a touchdown pass to Left End Chuck Golden for the final 56 yards. Chuck White converted to make it 7-0 over Libbey. Woodward's ,resulting kickoff pushed Libbey deep in its own territory and after failing to gar- ner a first down, the Cowboys punted short and Varner raced to the South Siders 21. Little Ray rea.ched the 7 on the next play and one play later Ed Laii' crossed the final white stripe on a plunge through center. Central tangled with Scott in the next tilt and although the Bulldogs displayed stubborn re- sistance at times, MeCarthy's boys finally scored with Steve iVilhelm the ball carrier. Tiger Defense Tough iVaite and DeVilbiss hooked up in a, scoreless deadlock with the Indians pushing deep into Tiger territory on one occasion but they met a tough DeVilbiss defense near the goal line and failed to gain a vital first down in four attempts. ' After halftime, VVoodward met the Tigers and this game also was a scoreless tie although another Varner to Golden pass clicked down to the Bengal one yard marker, The Bear attack stalled at this point as the Tiger for- SWOODWARD ROUTESLIBBEY I PRE IER 'BEARS OPEN SEASON I TONIGHT AGAINST LIMA Elmer Vorderl1urg's small crew of Polar l'f ns iourn tc li1111 todu to matt t'1n I ' v v'2,, CYS l 1 2 Zn' 1 5- , A , ' , I tral s Dragons, who last year romped through . 1 1 an undefeated season tlllfl were rated third 111 the state.

Woodward A Little Short On Reserves Examining the reserve power of the North Enders, we find that Vorder- burg possesses only about 15 extra footballers to back up his starting team and therefore will have to depend a great deal on the condition of the team. Replacements on the line should be Don Reamue and Don Dominiak, tacklesg Ralph Gardner, Bob Jones, and Ray Barker, endsg George Sabbaugh and Andy Nowak, guards, and Norm Crawford, reserve center. Comprising a second-'string backfield is Fritz Henzler, hard-running sub- fullback, Paul Miller or Ted Rokicki at the quarterback spotg and Bob Thayer and Walter Wozniak at the halves. Another fullback is Ed Zawis- towski with Vince Gallo trying for a halfback position. Other Schools To Battle Outsiders 1 ' h U All of the six Toledo high schools engage outside opposition in the first games of the season with Libbey's Cowboys opening the season locally as they encounter Akron South in a return contest at the South Side stadium. Scott plays the next local game Saturday at Bulldog Bowl with Ft. Wayne South the foe, while Central starts off their season Sunday by meeting Louisville St. Xavier at the University Glass Bowl. Waite and DeVilbiss join the Bears in meeting out-of-town teams with the Tigers expecting to draw the tougher assignment at Elyria. The Indians draw an easier task at Elkhart with the boys from Indiana, who were over- whelmed by Waite's power last year. Observing the terrific advance sale at Lima of 1150 student tickets, it would seem the Dragons are really out for Woodward. Some reports say that they expect another unbeaten season if they get past the Bears. ward wall again stiffened to re- main unscored upon in the pre- IIIIQFC. Libbey and Scott clashed i11 the fifth eight-minute quarter of the premiere and the Cowboys recovered from the Bear surprise to fall on a free ball and a fum- ble, taking full advantage of both breaks to tally on each occasion. The Bulldogs again showed strenghth in the line by blocking both extra point tries. New Coaches Miake Debut Bob Carson and Steve Wilhelm took turns intercepting each oth- er's passes in the Waite-Central meeting with none of the inter- ceptions benefiting either side to the extent of a score. Carson, Bill Martin, and Joe Kovedsdi did some fine ball lugging as did Vifilhelm and Duane Wisniewski for the Irish but the final exhibi- tion of the night still wound up in a scoreless stalemate.

Fresh League Approved By Faculty Managers By vote of the school faculty man- agers, freshmen will have a league of their own this year. The schools hope this will insure a steady and more experienced group of players to advance to the lightweight and var- sity squads. All teams will have the same sched- ule as the reserve squads with all the games falling on Monday afternoon. Woodward will have no special fresh- man team but will extract fresh play- ers from the reserve squad to par- ticipate in the league. Freshman Day proved to be great fun for the upp-erclassmen. Why some greenies actually believed there were underground tunnels for bi- cycles. Oh yes, does anyone know where tickets for the elevator are being sold? ' LARGE VET LINE AND FINE BACKS FORM RESERVES Under the capable leadership of coach Ted Szelagowski, former Wood- ward gridder, and line mentor, Don Ziemke, the Polar Cubs, 60 strong are fast whipping into condition, starting their grind on August 25 for their opening game at Libbey on October 2. ' This huge turnout, largest seen in many years, will be narrowed down to about Q5 players for the coming season, with thc remainder, those who are freshmen, comprising Wood- ward's first frosh team. Mainstay of the Cubs' backfield will be 160 pound Beans Beniek, who played regular for the reserve team la'st'year. He will divide his power driving talents between the fullback and tailback slots. Frank Mohr, shifty 150-pound lefthalf, will prob- ably get the starting call at tailback, with Bob Zasada, capably handling the wingback position. Field general of the squad seems to be freshman Bill Young, needle eye passer, but he is being closely pressed by Jim Szu- ska, 155-pound quarterback. The forward wall has plenty of beef with tackles Bob Szyperski tip- ping the scales at 220 and followed closely by a 214-pound freshman, Ed Hooven. Veterans Dave Zaski, 1955 Stan Mosko, 180, and Gene Wil- cox, 155, seemed to have the center of the line pretty well sewed up. Newcomers who show enough ability to warrant regular spots are George Veller, 155-pound pivot man, and Lehr Whitney, glue fingered wing- man.. Capable backfield reserves are led by fullback Jim Berlin, 170-pound plunger, who is expected to see plenty of action. With a line of this size and ability along with a fast stepping backfield, the Polar Cubs promise to be a strong contender in the league instead of being the usual cellar occupants. Schedule: Oct. 2 at Libbey, Oct. 9 at DeVilbiss, Oct. 16 Waite, here, Pct. 23 Central, here, Oct. 30 Scott, iere. ZIEMKE T0 ASSIST TED WITH RESERVES A new addition has been made, this year, to the coaching staff here at Woodward. .Don Ziemke, Macom- ber High School teacher, has been acquired to assist Ted Szelagowski with the lightweight aggregation. Although Don is being initiated to coaching this year, he has had much experience along the lines of sports. Football, basketball, and track were his main sports at Norwalk High. He also took a great interest in baseball, playing semi-pro baseball in his high 'school days. Upon leaving Norwalk High Don attended Wooster College, where he continued in the sports field for three years, and finished his education at Ashland where hc graduated. Finishing his college career thc Army was his next call, and after serving, three years was discharged with a Captain's ranking. The lightweight coaches will be equally burdened this year, as they are planning to keep as many fresh- man tryouts as possible in order to give them as much experience as pos- sible before playing varsity ball. The freshmen will have their own start- ing eleven to compete with all other city schools with freshman teams. Speaking of freshmen, there were quite a few girls that really made a hit last Friday. Woodward is lucky to have June Managhan, Billie Ar- nold, Marilyn Vaughn, and many oth- ers whose names I don't know, in its Freshman Class. Graduates of '47 Win Scholarships Last June, at the graduations exer- cises, announcements of various schol- arship were made to students who earn- ed good grades and stood at the head of their class scholastically. The Toledo University scholarships were awarded to Phyllis Konop and Pat- ricia Dressel. Joan Kolinski received the Polish Literary Societyis scholar- ship to Toledo University while Bertha Bitznauer was given the Willa G. LaRue T. U. scholarship. Jim Wilusz, through the efforts of W. F. Rohr was presented with a four year scholarship to Purdue. Three of Miss Hazel Coy's girls who were interested in nursing as a career, were awarded scholarships to the vari- ous Toledo hospitals. They were: Mar- jorie Mann, Helen Mizejewski, and Carolyn Powell. ' Williams To Lecture An illustrated lecture of wild life in the form of moving pictures will be giv- en by Dave R. Williams. This lecture is scheduled for Thursday, September 25 during the assembly period and will take place in the auditorium. Admission will be 5.20 per person. C. C. LaRue has made arrangements with Mr. Williams to spend all day lecturing in various sci- ence classes also. New Records Purchased Records have been purchased to be played in the auditorium during the lunch hours. Lee Rynder was ap- pointed to get the new spin platters. Mr. Rynder came through with the ten top tunes on the Hit Parade. They were played for the first time Friday, September 12 during the fourth and fifth lunch hour periods. The records had to be purchased, since last year's were worn beyond use. Some of the new records are: Ask Anyone Who Knows, I Won- der, Kokomo Indiana, and Sher- wood Forest. Pictures Taken By O. M. Thompson Beginning on June 11 and ending on September 15, 10,000 School-card pictures were taken by O. M. Thompson and his helpers. Many obstacles confronted them in their endeavor to photograph every student of all public high schools in- cludin Central Notre Dame and H 9 1 Ursuline Academies. - Of 10,000 pictures only two re- turned due to improper address. All in all, only seven or eight were not classified as suitable pictures for bus- cards. All high school students who wish to ride on city busses for five cents had to have one taken. These pictures are also used in the Saga. New Door Planned Near Gym Office Miss Catherine McClure announced that the Board of Education is going to make a new door to the left of the gym teachers' office. This new door which will lead into the storeroom was in the past up by the boys. It will in the future, be occupied by the girls to play ping pong. The boys entrance to the storeroom will be closed. The room that extends from the girls' to the boys' gym will be used to keep the new bleachers in. Drive Chairman Elected During the teachers meeting held last Monday, Mrs. Eva Leu was nomi- nated and unanimously elected faculty chairman of all organizational drives held here in Woodward. She will be re- sponsible for the Red Cross and Com- munity Chest drives along with the others held during the school year. ANNUAL DRIYE IN Asvyilgc 45 Students Enroll In New Driving Class ln an effort to acquaint students with the methods of driving and the rules and regulations of the road, a new course is being offered here at Woodward.

Assisting one period a day in 141 are the following: Jane Allberg, Betty Barber, Mildred Bukowski, Mary Cal- lahan, Virginia Damazyn, Dolores Hudzinski, Barbara LaMont, Dolores Ragen, Jo Ann Sackman, Betty Stein- bart, Catherine Thabit, Alberta Woodring, Gloria Zaborowski, Betty Zakrewski, and Mary Zarn. WOMEN TO HAVE TEA Collingwood Presbyterian Church will be the scene of the School Wom- en's Tea. Miss Marie Stoll, exchange teacher, will tell of her experience in England. This first meeting will be held September 25 at 3:30. The price being 35 cents. Miss Hannah Shaw was formerly Woodward's representa- tive but during a meeting held Wed- nesday morning, Mrs. Hazel McMan- amon was chosen to take her place. Teachers from all schools will be pre- sent. Bell Telephone Company To Sponsor Stage Show A stage demonstration of the latest developments in radio and telephone communications will be shown during the double assembly September 24. This demonstration is sponsored by the Ohio Bell Telephone Company and arrange- ments were made by Harry Lamb, su- pervisor of the radio and visual educa- tion department. A film may be shown, also, in connection with this demon- stration, which will be of special inter- est to the science and physics students. Weekly Pep Meetings To Help Back Team This year, peppy mass meeting with plenty of cheers and spirit will take place every week. Fifteen to twenty minutes of the time will consist of the student body participating in the yells and singing our school song. The pur- pose of this being to really back Wood- ward's teams on to those victories. Last Friday the Tattler sponsored the first of these meetings and on October 31, the Zetalethean Literary Society will hold theirs. All other dates are open. Every club is urged to start mak- ing plans to sponsor at least one throughout the sports year. Lords And Kerlin To Head Teams, Bulova, Bicycle Offered Woodward's magazine drive started with a bang at the double assembly held Wednesday, September 17, at which Forest Robinson and W. C. Howorth spoke to the student body. This assembly was preceded by a teacher's meeting at 8:30 in 124. As in former years, Clyde Van Tassel will act as general chairman, while Miss Ethel Kerlin and Floyd Lords will once again captain the blue and white teams respectively. This year special prizes are being offered to e give students the incentive to bring in subscrip- tions. High girl and boy will have their choice of a Bulova wrist watch or a bicycle. The high- est home room per capita will attend a down- town movie on school time, while the teacher of this room will have his, or her, choice of any hat in Toledo. Which ever team comes out on top, will be treated to a C schedule movie on school time. A show is planned at the half-way 1 mark for those students who sell a certain num- ber of subscriptions. 515,000 Goal Set I . In all, a total of 315,000 is desired, and could be gained if every student sells at least three subscriptions totaling 310. , Distribution of individual prizes by the credit system has been cancelled this year. Every student has a greater chance at the squirrel cage drawing at the end of this drive. For every dollar's worth of magazines sold, a student is entitled to have his name put in the drawing. An estimated S300 was spent on these prizes by Mr. Van Tassel. Mr. Van Tassel Variety of Prizes Angora mittens, Toni permanents, red caps, ties, scarfs, bandanas, radios, a football, and wool jackets are just a few. When the 10-day campaign draws to a close, a faculty show will be p1'esented. Any student selling 38 worth of magazines will be admitted to the auditorium for this performance. If last year's total is exceeded a Sadie Hawkins Day, similar to the Courtesy day of last year will take place. There will also be a poster contest, with the entire student body acting as Judges. Prizes of 55.00, 33.00 and 52.00 will be offered. Ten Dollars will be given to the student selling the most dollars of Curtis Magazines. To help promote sales, Mr. Howorth has had 1,000 copies of the Ladies' Home Journal and Holiday shipped to Woodward for student use. In all, Woodward will receive 50 per cent of the money receipts from the Saturday Evening Post, Ladies' Home Journal, and Country Gentleman sales. A 30 per cent profit will be received from the 16-month-old publi- cation, Holiday. Woodward ranks as the second highest school in previous national campaigns, beaten only by DeVilbiss. Lucas County sold more magazines than any other county. Piano To Be Purchased At the end of the drive 351,000 will be set aside for the purchase of a. grand piano for use in the auditorium. This musical instrument has long been desired by Edgar Sorton, music director. The remainder will be added to the stadium fund. . Prizes for Thursday consisted of two free tickets to a dance to be given later for each subscription brought in. A ticket to the game with Waite tomorrow night was the prize offered this morning. Under the leadership of Miss Ethel Kerlin, the Blue Team will consist of the following rooms: First floor, 106, 116, 120, 124, 126, 146, 149, Second floor: 205, 220, 218, 220, 223, 224, 225, 226, 240, 241, 242, 248, 2545 Third floor: 314, 319, 320, 340, 348. Also on the Blue Team will be the Office Workers, Deans' Office, Athletic Office, and the Library, all four being combined into one. Headed by Floyd Lords the White Team will depend on the following rooms for its subscriptions: First fioor: 103, 110, 112, 118, 142, 1525 Second floor: 201, 206, 216, 235, 2465 Third floor: 301, 302, 305, 309, 310, 312, 318, 324, 326, 329, 335, 341, 342, 349, and 354. Mr. Lords has selected several students to be helpers on the White Team. Joan Bogdanski, Rita Radicki, Juanita Reynolds, Catherine Urbanowicz, Kathryn Slates, Mary Zarn, Charles Fyffe, and Kenneth LaFountaine were the ones chosen to assist. Miss Kerlin has not yet selected all those who she will have working with her. 7h.e Ldooduland TATTLE R Vol. XX Toledo, Ohio, September 19, 1947 No. 2 Three Represent Woodward Woodward boasts of having three of the four oiicers in the Toledo Junior Red Cross. These are Patricia Pawlak, vice-president, Betty Barber, treasurer, and Justine DuPre, secre- tary. The president of the organiza- tion is from DeVilbiss. Our Red Cross Chapter of the To- ledo Junior Red Cross was represent- ed at the County Fair last Friday evening by Betty Barber and Justine DuPre. Cheerleaders Chosen During the assembly today, girls were given the chance to try out for the position of cheerleaders. Before this year only boys were permitted to try out. Ronald Breneman and Dick Dilly are the only two leaders from last year. Now both boys and girls will assist the student body in cheers to back the team. Only freshman and sophomore girls, with the exception of one junior girl, were allowed to try out. THE WOODWARD TATFLER From the Desk . . . Edg..,...1S HOUGH our grading system at Woodward is not too difficult, it will seem so to freshmen who have had no experience with this type of grading program. Through this editorial we will endeavor to explain and clarify the basis on which students are graded at Woodward. At the end of the first five weeks in each and every quarter unsats are issued. These unsats warn the recipients that they are not doing satisfactory work in classes where unsats are issued. This gives them a four week period, at the close of which grade cards are issued, to bring their marks up to a passing average. An unsat does not mean you will fail the course, but that you are failing at the time and will unless you earn higher grades d u r - ing the next four weeks. These grades must be suf- ficient to bring your entire nine weeks' average to a passing point. Report cards are issued at the end of each quart- er, which are nine week periods. Marks on these cards will consist of A's, B's, C's, D's, F's. These letters, in their respective order, stand for excel- lant, very good, average, below average, and failing. The D grade, though below average, is a passing mark. However, students receiving these marks are in danger of failing as the difference between D and F is of a slight degree. QF PP- PF PPORTUNITY is knocking at your door if you are a senior and have no knowledge of dri- ving. For the first time, Woodward is offering a course in automobile driving. The Safety Department, a branch of the Board of Education, is sponsoring this course. The complete course will be finished at the end of the first seme- ster. Twenty-two students have already signed up for the second semester. A total of forty-five senior students are now learning the fundamentals of driving. For a few days the pupils have been reading book- lets and studying the various parts of a car. Then nine pupils from the group go out each day and put their knowledge to practice. They learn to drive in the new station wagons with dual controls. This recent device enables the teacher to prevent any accidents that otherwise might occur. With an inexperienced driver this is just one more ex- ample of opportunity lying at your feet. Take ad- vantage of it while you can! SF PF Ill HIS year as never before the student body of Woodward High School should whole hearted- ly support the football team. Our boys have practiced, hard, long, and steadily to gain honor for our school. We're not claiming to be a championship team, but we know they will do their best. Already in the previous games they have shown that they can win games. The spirit in which a team goes on the field does much to deter- mine the final outcome of the game. The students are the ones who give the team the needed spirit, so the winning ofthe games depends on the student body as much as the team. It is Coach Vorderburg's wish that the different organizations put on mass meetings every week, and that we have a large attendance at the games so that the team will go out with an abundance of spirit and hope. Vacation Memories Summer vacation! Those two words mean a lot of things. If we tried to define it by letter this is about what it would amount to: S stands for all the screwballs Who worked dur- ing the summer, instead of being lazy. d U is for the upteen things we did during the hot ays. M is for mother who could never tame me down, once I was let loose from school. The other M is for many times I wished I could have one continuous vacation E is for every one I met during those three months of bliss. R is for the restlessness of kids on their own with nothing to do. V is for the veekends that every kid made sure were packed with fun. A is for the automobiles that hauled everyone to their distinction. C is for the cold weather that was an enemy to all. A is for the army of mosquitoes, flies, and ants we seemed to attract wherever we are. T is for the time when we thought of the hours we had wasted doing homework. I is for the incidentals we spend so much money on. 0 is for the occasional mishaps that occured to everyone. N is the number of kids who really are glad to come back to school. .11. Greenie He was a small chap, much too small, in fact, to be thrown out into the cold world, upon his own resources. In his casual walk he tried to hide the fact that he was paralyzed with fear, and he stared at the passers-by with an imploring, sympathetic look in his eyes. In the distance he saw something which caused him to hurry along a little faster. Suddenly he stopped to examine a small card he held firmly in his hand. Then a radiant smile over- spread his countenance. r Alas! Another freshman had found his homeroom The WDODWARD TATTLER Published and Printed Every School Week by the Pupils of Woodward High School.

Coming back to school after summer vacation, I mean falling out of bed at 8 in the morning' You think how much nicer it is than lying in bed until noon 1 Thatis what it says here anyway. 9 By the time you arrive at school, your eyes have pried themselves open. Walking in the entrance of good old Woodward, you are greeted by our faithful distributors of knowledge Cand the shock closes your eyes again.i But, it's good to see our teachers again. Such a relief after looking at normal smiling people all summer. When you open the door of ye ole classroom, you are met by the odor of musty books. COh well, the fresh country air didn't agree with you anyways Teachers are considerate, though. They must realize how tire- some it is to lie around with nothing to do but ab- sorb the sun. So, they give us a stack of homework to take out minds L?l off the unbearable months without school. Now isn't that thoughtful?

I like them long and I'll wear them longer too! Tommy Wagner-Fr. I hate them. I think girls should wear them at the regular length. Leah Shadeen-Sr. I like them e sp e cially for dressy wear. Thelma Besase-Soph. 'There too old fashion and make girls look too old. I'm surely not wearing them. Allen Hoar-Fr. I don't like them below the knees Knee length is the best. Sylvia Gloski-Sr.- I like the idea myself. Most of my newer clothes are longer so I'll wear them. Bob Verbon-Sr. The shorter the better is all I've got to say! Girls should show all their pretty legs- to a certain extent of course? Barney Jesinowski-Soph. I think they look like tne girls are going to a formal. They should wear their skirts even with their knees. David Zink and Paula Fasnacht were a steady twosome during the past months. Paulays sister, Florine, last year grad is in Michigan recouperating from hay-fever. Summer Reminiscin g Summer 1947 is just a memory now and it's back to studies we go. First a welcome to all the fresh greenies and a hearty Hello to the sophomores ,jun iors and fellow seniors. We'll reminisceback through the summer months to see how and where some Woodwardites spent their vacation. Besides donating his time to Sylvia Thompson Rudy Renz was one of the Toledo delegates sent to New York for the annual Junior Achievement Con- ference. ' Fred Henzler 'divided his vacation between work' ing in a print shop and Dolly. Although school was out, it didn't take long for the good news to spread around about the mar- riage of our principal, Mr. LaRue, to Miss Dorothy Warner, Woodward teacher. Mrs. LaRue has re- signed her teaching position to donate her time to household tasks. Belated congratulations are ex- tended to them from the T.O. Woodward will miss your great personality, Mrs. LaRue! Wedding chimes rang for another member of our faculty, Roman Scherer, who took Margaret Lugibihl as his wedded wife. Best of happiness to the wedded pair. Dean, Clyde Meek had 20 of Woodward's mascu- line males working for him this summer as care-- takers fof grassl at Forest Cemetery. Many kids took advantage of Mr. Sunshine, refer ing to those tans which are roaming through the halls. Summertime didn't break these familiar Wood- ward couples: Jim Chubner .......... ........................... J oan Kosmatka Dick Dressel ....... ...... ...... P a t Stickroth Dick Steger ...........,. ................ B abs Kubacki Ed Houghlating ........................ Jeanette Kleinhans Smoky Mountains was the resort that attracted three Woodward teachers. Mrs. Bessie Burkett traveled with her sister, Miss Belle Joseph to veiw them. Miss Betty Nelson was also a visitor at the resort. Yes, teacher's go to school too. Proof of this was found when Miss Hannah Shaw spent vacation att- ending school in 'Washington D. C. Evelyn Hero's new nickname, Bubbles, really dis' cribes her since her summerjob consisted of blow- ing plastic bubbles. Music at Scott this summer was under the direc- tion of Edgar Sorton. The majorettes, who did such a swell job at the premiere, were attending Mr. Sorton's summer classes. Joan Marok is having a tough time deciding which one of her senior pictures she will give to Jim Hayes. Jim a senior last year at Central, met Joan at Devils' Lake. Talking about pictures, many seniors were taking their photographs for the Saga all duriug summer vacation. Those who haven't taken piciures yet, are reminded to get an appointment card in room 126. Football players, Aubry, Crawford and Chubner renteda cottage at Lakewood. They say they had loads of fun Hitting with the girls!!! Summer left us a baker at Woodward. It is Bill Bruining, who worked as one at the Vision Bakery. After playing varsity football last year without any injuries, Jim Wilusz, who played short-stop for the Close Brother's baseball team this summer, was hit by a ball which caused him to loose his front tooth. Mr. Joe Stobinski journied to Wisconsin for a few weeks. Miss Camille Savage toured the New Eng- land States and also was teaching summer school at Scott High along with Miss Bertha Vermilya. Paul Tarkon, Art Bartkowicz, and Skeeter Bon- kowski served as counsellors at Local 12 Summer Camp. T -at Babka-Tutak romance is still cooking. In fact a little birdie told me that Ray and Virgie are going on their fifth month anniversary of courtship. Saint Vincent's Hospital had Woodwardites: Theresa Stackownik, Charlotte Badas, Joan Bogdan- ski, and Katherine Urbanowicz working as assist- ants to the nurses. Hope you enjoyed our little talk of Summer Rem- iniscing and until next week have a pleasant week end! f Leon THE WOODWARD TATTLER X I ' S ' p. F mfg, 5 .

Central, 133 Louisville St. Xavier, 0 -Under fa blistering sun, the Irish put on a drive early in the first quar- ter and scored with Johnny Raster doing the bulk of the ball carrying.

Wayne South, 7- Outweighed by a wide margin on the line, Fort Wayne never had a chance as the Bulldogs rolled up 20 points in the first half before South could score. The Hoosier team displayed a nice aerial attack but Scott's superior line and the hard running of Halfback Jack Henning spelled the 19 point dif- ference. Chet Krolak, Bulldog pivot man, showed to advantage by inter- cepting a pass and sprinting some 70 yards for a scqre. v Elyria, 193 DeVilbiss, 12-All-Ohio Vic Janowicz sprinted for two long touchdown runs, one a 95 yard dash, and passed for a third score as Elyria edged out the Tigers, despite a last half rally by the Toledoans. Fritz Lauffer and Red Kaiser climaxed 54 and 66 sustained yard marches by tallying one apiece. Elyria led 13-0 at halftime as the Tigers failed to overcome the deficit and became the only Toledo school to lose in its initial game of the season. BEAR LIGHTWEIGHTS DEFEAT WHITMER BY 12 T0 0 MARGIN The Woodward Lightweights ed their '48 season defeating Whit- open- mer's Panthers in a practice game last Thursday, 12-0. Because of the few days of ohten- sive workouts the team held, they appeared rusty when in possession of ther ball, but were really Bears of the defense . The Whitmer eleven was able to garner but one first down, while Woodward made good for ap- proximately ten. The Panthers were unable to hold the on-charging Bears, with Lehr Whitney and Curtis Burn- nett breaking through consistently to hit the ball carrier for long losses each time. Dick Bieniek and Jim Suszka were the boys who erased the final yard- age for pay-dirt on both occasions, K AUBRY, VARNER AND LAIR STAR Woodward's small but aggressive varsity eleven was successful in snap- ping Lima Central's undefeated rec- ord that they carried into the game, last Friday, to the tune of 19-6. Ex- cept for an additional extra point for each squad, the score would read the same as last year, with the winner and loser just switched around. Aubry Quick Kicks Pay Off White's opening kick-ofl' to the boys of Red and Green was returned to their own 20-yard line. They were able to get as far as the 49 where Schiehsl .recovered a fumble to change the direction of the traveling pigskin. Finding themselves in as tight a de- fense as they had on Central, Bob Aubry ttquick-kicked , the ball roll- ing dead on the two. Jim Staup, 140- pound speedy left half, made a first down to the 16. At this point Aubry came charging in- to intercept a Lima aerial and raced for the goal only to be stopped at the nine. On the next play from scrimmage Varner erased the final yards for the initial score of the game. Chuck White's try for the placement went wide, and the score read 6 to 0. Steger Recovers in Pay Dirt After the ball changed hands a couple ol' times, Aubry again set the stage for the second t.d. as he beautifully executed a 62-yard quick kick that lay dead on the one. Jim Staup was hit with such an impact, by VVoodward's on- charging forward wall, the ball fumbled from his hands and lay in the end zone. Dick Steger came charging in to fall on the ball for the touchdown. XVhite's place kick was good on this at- tempt. Both squads tightened defenses at this point and Woodward could go no farther than the 20-yard stripe of their opponents in the second quarter. Bears Tally on 61-Yard Drive Coming back in the third quarter the Bears took the opening kick-off on the 39 and never relinquished the pig- skin until their 61-yard march ac- counted for another tally. Ed Lair displayed some real quarter-back sneaks, each going for approximately 8 to 20 yards at a crack, while Ray Varner and Bob Aubry alternated the ball to the 12 from where the latter bucked through the'center of Cen- tral's line to score standing up. White's try for the extra point was wide. Taking the resulting kick, Cen- tral marched 51 yards for pay dirt. Jim Allen went through center for the final 40 yards. the longest sprint for the Dragons. Jim Alder's try for the placement was blocked and the scoring for the evening ended, with the score- board reading 19 to 6. Neither team seriously threatened the last canto, both playing the game on even terms. Dick scoring on a 5-yard plunge and Jim going over from the one on a quarter-back sneak. Coach Ted Szelagowski was free in sending in reserve power, with al- most the entire team seeing action in their first encounter. HBEARS ENGAGE IN LI , 19-6 Safely past the first obstacle, NYoodward's Polar Bears encoun- ter another o11e tonight when they cross the Maumee River to clash with the big Waite indians, also successful in their first game, in the 't'eature tilt of the three-game City League card. The result of this game will probably go a. long ways toward determining the city championship, as Waite is again favored in the league race and a Bruin upset would make Wood- ward the team to beat for the title. The other games find Scott 's Bulldogs invading Page Stadium to meet Dc-Yilbiss ilflltl Central traveling to the South Side to test the Libbey Cowboys. Waite Has Fine Backs, Big Line Although the East Siders have lost Jack Mollenkopf and most of their first-string line, they still figure to be tough again this year with a flock of fine backs and a pair of the best ends in the city to back them up. Their backfield includes All-City Bob Carson, slippery Joe Kovesdi, Full- back Bill Martin, and 190-pound Quarterback Lyle Myrice. The ends are All-City Guido Tambur and ace pass snatcher Bob Dedo. u Surveying the line, 1t,S found llead Coach Frank Pauly's main hope is 220-pound George Antoine who is expected to anchor the hulking Indian forward wall. The rest of the wall has men any- where from 'ISO to 200 pounds. Schiehsl Out With Broken Wrist Turning to Niioodward, we find WAITE TOP LEAGUE TILT that the Lima triumph was costly with husky Left Tackle Bob Schiehsl sustainnig a broken wrist. Junior Don Reaume is ex- pected to capably fill Schiehsl's position, but after him the tackle ranks are well-thinned on the Bear squad which means a great deal of endurance is required of Reaume and Right Tackle Duane Tigges. Woodward's backfield will probably remain intact with Fullback Bob Aubry carrying the big job of kick- ing the Bears out of any trouble they may get into. Expected to carry a double load will be Halfback Ray Varner, who is relied on to do the bulk of the ball carrying and passing for the Bruins. Charles White, along with Left End Golden, will try to latch on to some of diminutive Ray's accurate aerials. Steger, Aubry Have Tough Job Depended on to do a lot toward steadying the Blue and White for- ward wall is veteran Center Dick Steger with Quarterback Ed Lair probably coming up fast to meet the Indian ball carriers. Aubry, a fine tackle, will back up the line along with Steger. Here is Woodward's startingseleven: Pos.

DOC , ELMER WERE 0NCE BITTER FOES Watson Doc Welever and Elmer Vorderburg, who are' now blending their talents to make Woodward a winning football team, were not al- ways on such friendly terms. Iron- ically, they were bitter enemies dur- ing their high school days when Doc threw his six foot frame of 190 pounds tnow 2203 around for the Scott Bulldogs with such power and agility he was awarded honor as an all-state fullback. Juice Vorder- burg proved to be one of those gam- bling quarterbacks who is still re- membered for his clever signal call- ing at the Libbey corral. You can rest assured that the fireworks really fiew when these former bitter rivals met on the high school gridirons. New equipment was gladly received in the gym. Now there is an ample supply for all games. Pls PIC Sli The Board of Education is install- ing a door which will be cut from the girls' gym to the small equipment room used by the boys. The table tennis room will be discontinued for the girls' use. , Be-at Waite THE WOODWARDETATFLER i , Wetterman Urges So far this year our team has really made a nice showing. With the Lima Central win still fresh in our minds we can look forward to to- morrow night's game with more hope. It promises to be a good game, so let's all be on hand to up- hold our team-wikn, loske, or draw. Hah! Hah! We know three big. senior? boys?'? who are afraid of Pop Sheline. We wouldn't think of telling anyone that they are Marion Antonini, Bob Johnson, and Charlie Gajewski.

Every Friday there are about 22 Sophomores ,straightening their ties, combing their hair, putting on make-up, and really getting slicked up. Why? To sell Tattlers of course, because they're all members of the beginnkers' llewsviriting class. Kelly Hymore has a strange ex- planation for the patch he was wear- ing over his eye.

INTRODUCING f Mr. Virgil Sloan Among the scores of new person- alities here at Woodward, is that of Virgil Sloan, who is now a member of our faculty. Replacing the vac- ancy left by Miss Wetterman, Mr. Sloan teaches World History instead in 118. A native of Henry County, Ohio, he has received a diversified education, having attended Defiance College, Bowling Green State Uni- versity, and Ohio State University. It not being an opportune moment as yet for Mr. Sloan to fairly judge Woodward and its student body, he still maintains an open, unbiased opinion of his new home. He has adapted himself quite readily to his new surroundings, a quality that is valuable in his case. In the past he had taught at Har- vard, Robinson Junior, and Longfel- low Schools respectively. Mr. Sloan's personal life is shared with his fam- ily, consisting of his wife and a five year old son, Hal. He also enjoys officiating at basketball games, re- vealing he is inclined to be sports- minded. To sum it all up, Mr. Sloan impresses me as being an intelligent, friendly, and co-operative additional asset to Woodward's faculty. Freshmen Discuss Student Council Petitions Members of the Freshman class, who were interested in becoming Student Council members, met at 2:30 in room 147 last Tuesday. Joyce Young, chairman of the elections, told of the council work and stressed the fact that the members of the Coun- cil should maintain at least a C average in their school work, and that they should be able to devote at least an hour of their time for Coun- cil work. Also, they must be able to stay after school for meetings. Petitions were then taken out and are to be returned to room 146 by today at 3:00. Elections will be held next week. Due to the resignation of two people from the Student Council the runner ups were chosen as replace- ments. They were Edwin Blaszkie- wicz, junior, and Francis Waltermey- er, senior. Long Western Trip Taken By Sheline Answering questions about the West is a simple matter to Raymond Kaiser Sheline, since he has become quite an authority on the subject. Accompanied by his wife, he spent over a period of eight weeks in that part of the country, and moved some 10,000 miles during the trip. They also drove along the entire Pa- cific Coast and visited,with the excep tion of four, every state west of the Mississippi River. Among the many well known places visited were the Yellowstone National Park, Boulder Dam, Grand Canyon, Zon National Park, Painted Desert, Petrified Forest, and the Ozark Moutains. Cross- ing the Golden Gate Bridge and the 1 six mile long! Oakland!Bay Bridge was in- cluded in the tour of San Francisco. A most enjoyable part of the trip came when Mr. and Mrs. Sheline visited their son who is a student at the University of California. Girls File Schedules Helping in the office filing ink sched ules in alphabetical order were: Eliz abeth Fox, Helen Gryzewski, Virginia H a n s o n, Peggy H. Hartz, Marcella Kledzik, Joan Kenger, Pat Mackiewicz, Rose Marie Mories, Sally Radzenka, and Ann Marie Solder. These girls work- ed during first hour study periods last Tuesday Return Of Spanish fEditor's Note: The following ar- ticle was recently received, in the form of a letter, by Mrs. Marie Er- sig from Miss Anne Wetterman. In reply, Charles LaRue, principal, stated that everything possible would be done to keep Spanish alive here at Woodward.J Spanish The study of any foreign lan- guage, be it French, German, Span- ish, or Polish must be respected as a serious and intellectual discipline. The ability to understand spoken Spanish and to express oneself intel- ligibly in the foreign tongue gives a feeling of accomplishment and self- confidence, forming an inducement to pursue more eagerly the study of other subjects. Many are the benefits derived from the study of a foreign lan- guage, one of the greatest of them, however, is that of a better under- standing of and a greater apprecia- tion for English. Furthermore, the commercial relations between North and South America having grown so rapidly for the last twenty years, it is absolutely necessary for our high school students to acquire a sound knowledge of Spanish. Spanish has become a commercial language. The typist and stenog- rapher who can also boast of being able to write and read in Spanish, has a very much brighter outlook in the business world from a social view- point as well as from a financial one. And. to those who are choosing pro- fessional careers, Spanish, by the way,.a direct derivation of Latin, is certainly indispensable on account of its musical and cultural beauty, its rich treasures of literature, art, and its interesting history. - I All of this is studied in the Span- ish department at Woodward besides making the students acquainted with the customs and manners of living of Spanish speaking people. The study of Spanish, rightly ap- preciated and.taken advantage of by the students, is sure to furnish them one more valuable tool in their equip- ment for life. Elizabeth Ollendorf To Assist In Girls' Gym Feeling a bit out of practice, I Walked into the gym, ready to become acquainted with an unknown addition to.Woodward s faculty. She is Mrs. Elizabeth Ollendorf, who is replacing Mrs. Jane Taylor, as the assistant ln. the girls' gym. Mrs. Ollendorf will aid Miss Catherine McClure with all gym activities. She bears the appearance of an outdoor woman, who is an all 'round good sport. Coupled with her per- sonality this fact makes her a very friendly and congenial member of our faculty. A native of Bowling Green, Ohio, she has lived in Toledo about four- teen years. She received her Mas- ter's Degree in Physical Education at Bowling Green State University, where a few years later she was a swimming instructor. Mrs. Ollendorf was also a gym director at Point Place Junior High School. Although she is interested in every type of sport, swimming and boating are her favorites. We hope that by this form of introduction we have aided Mrs. Ollendorf in becoming a bit more familiar with the students. Bob Caylor would appreciate it if someone would sneak in 302 before sixth hour and paste all the letters on the blank keys.

This statement is as clear as mud to you, if you were one of the 19 informally initiated into the Zetalea- thean Literary Society last night at Riverside Park Shelter House. Virginia Obertaz and Betty Barber, co-chairmen spent many sleepless nights dreaming up fantastic ordeals in which to place the following girls: Joanne Backer, Catherine Coble, Ur- sula Cutsinger, Mary Ann Debord, Mary Hargrove, Colleen Hite, Connie Hutchins, Theresa Kaminski, Pat Kor- rell, Catherine Meek Dorothy Piotrow- ski, Pat Pope, Darlene Reissig, Dorothy Stallbaum, Sally Steger. Elaine Taylor, Joan Urban, Pearl Williams, Wanda Zientek. Of course Doris Basilius, Madaline Stammber, and Virginia 'Weiss can take some of the blame ? because they com- posed the initiation committee. Patricia Stickroth is president of the organization and Mrs. Bessie Burkett is the new advisor. Hi-Y Plans Year's Activities Woodwardls Hi-Y organization held its second meeting of the year Tuesday September 22, at the Y.M.C.A. Pros- pective members for the club were in- vited to attend. A motion picture was also shown. Following this, plans were made for a mass meeting to be sponsor- ed by this club in the near future. The cabinet of the club consists Ernie Simp- son, president, Chuck Sampson, vice president, Edward Loo secretary, and Ralph Wise, treasurer. J. Mohrhardt is advisor of the group. G.M. Presents Exhibition Three Representatives from the Gen- eral Motors Company will exhibit the Napoleanic Coach during the double as- sembly Tuesday, September 30. A dem- onstration ofthe Fisher Body Coach and movies will be shown. This will be an il- lustrated lecture. Harry Lamb, director of visual and radio education in all public schools, arranged this meeting for Woodward. Students Assist Manton Boys and girls who are helping in the library this year are: Virginia Domb- kowski, Robert Puls, Helen Steiner, Na- omi Crouch, Virginia Damazyn, Betty Jane Zakrzurki, Lucille Antoszewski, Phyllis Cusino, Catherine Mikolajczyk, Wally Nowicki, Jack Smith, Duane Tigges, Eleanor Epperly, Vi r g in i a O b e r t a c z, Madelyn Stammer, Ann Ziolkowski, Theresa Zoltanski and Ruth Ruff who is a post graduate. School Becomes Member Woodward High School has sent in a membership to the Toledo Chamber of Commerce. This will entitle a member of the Woodward faculty to attend Chamber of Commerce meetings. School Becomes Member Ten Dollars was sent to the Toledo Zoological park from- Woodward's Gen- eral Fund for membership in the zoo during their current drive. TPERICLEANS INSTALL FIFTEEN MEMBERS Do you know Marie Chewialkowski, Lorraine Collins, Corine Darah, Sally Dickey, Rose Encheif, Evelyn Iwinski, Marian Krause, Josephine Kott, Carol McNutt, Beth Marquardt, Evelyn Mag- dus' Dolores Proch, Mary Tzanakis, Joan Vizneau, or Magaret Young? You do. Didn't they look a little hagard and weary this morning? They did. Well, it's no wonder. You see, these fifteen fortunate? girls are this year's Periclean Literary Socie- ty's new members. The reason for their disheveled appearances rests on the fact that they were informally initiated last night in the Wilson Park Shelter hosue. The responsibility of p l a n ni n g all those felonious antics performed last night rested on the shoulders of Marilyn Lester, initiation chairman. Pat Pawlak, Pat Kaczmarek, Joan Mattes and La- Verne Steffans ably assisted her. Fadwa Mickel is president of this club and Miss Bertha Vermilya is advisor. The initiation was called off due to the illness of the president and advisor. CHEERLEADER POSITIONS FILLED Almost eighty girls, freshmen, sophomores and juniors, tried out for three cheerleading positions during the first .hour Monday. Miss Cath- erine McClure, Mrs. Elizabeth Ollen- dorf, Lincoln Clark and Charles La- Rue were the elimination judges. Mr. Clark, advisor of the cheer- leaders, stated that the girls would be chosen for the following qualities: Ability to get students to cheer, per- sonality, sportsmanship and the abil- ity to lead the student body to back the team. The girls tried out in groups of four, each doing the locomotive yell. After every girlhad a chance to show what she could do, twelve girls were chosen to compete after school. They were: Freshmen, Esther Wendel, Ruth Alverman, Bernadine Conliss, Helen Marie Majka: sophomores, Bobby Hale, Barbara Peregoy, Virginia Walczak, Beth Marquardtg juniors, Marilyn Nagley, Mary Lou Raymond, Evelyn Peth and Theresa Kaminski. At 3 o'clock the girls niet in the auditorium for the final elimination. Miss Margaret Ann Schindler, Lin- coln Clark and Miss McClure acted as judges. Each girl drew a number and two at a time came on the stage to do the routine. Out of the twelve, six were chosen, then the final three who are now Woodward's girl cheer- leaders. They are Beth Marquardt, Mary Lou Raymond, sophomores, and Theresa Kaminski, junior. Frosh Boys Examined There they stood, approximately 300 boys, draped only in trousers a n d stockings, fanxiouslyj awaiting the mo- ment of their physical examination yesterday. Fresh-men made up the nucleus of the gathering, but scattered throughout the frosh were many upper classmen who had not previously been examined. Dominant figures of this event were Doctor Harting, physician in charge, Doctor Curl, Doctor Grodjan, and Doc- tor Pauly. The friendly smiles of Miss Brennan and her assisting nurses, Miss Ruby, Miss Blankard, and Miss Handy, greeted the inmates, ferr! boys.l These medical people were sent from the Public Health Department, to make a tour :of all the Toledo public high schools. Miss Hazel Coy's second hour home nursing class also extended their com- petent services in soothing the nerves of the jittery boys and seeing that things ran smoothly. ' . Lli TATTLER Vol. XX Toledo, Ohio, September 26, 1947 No. 3 KERLIN REPRESENTS SCHOOL AT SCO'I'I' Miss Ethel Kerlin Something new will be added! This will be a new chapter to the Future Teahers of America Organization. Miss Ethel Kerlin represented Woodward at a tea, given by this society at Scott high bchool, Thursday, September 18. Boys and girls that are in the upper half of their class scholastically, and are interested in teaching as a profes- sion, are invited to join these chapters. Woodward will eventually join the other various high schools in Toledo who have already organized. When plans for Woodward's chapter are completed, Scott's chapter, which was started two year's ago, will handle the installation. These clubs are being set up to interest more high school stu- dents in teaching as a career. Students Initiate New Bleachers At Assembly Here's one thing that came early! Al- though the new bleachers were promis' ed for delivery on December 1, they ar- rived on Wednesday, September 17. These fold-up bleachers are attached to the wall and can be used anytime. Under the direction of Milton Will and Paul Panze, the sections were com- pletly installed on the day after arrival. Assisting in the project were Joy E. Mohrhardt's classes. The six bleacher sections were pur- chased with Athletic Association money from the Horn Brothers Manufacturing Company in Fort Dodge, Iowa. Each section consists of six rows and has a total seating capacity of 350 to 400 people. After the project was completed, O.M. Thompson took a picture to be sent to the company. The bleachers were given their initial test at the Woodward-Waite mass meeting. A.J. Brown, 'aculty manager, announced that the bleachers will be marked for reserved seats before the basketball season. ' Wooden File Drawers Made S.B. Crouse and his woodshop classes have made five wooden file drawers. These new drawers are to be used in the main office to file cumulative re- cord cards, which at this time are so numerous. They will be kept in a room near the dean's oiiice. Hall Guards Assigned This year the following students have volunteered to take hall guard posts the first hour. Assisting Fracis Tegtmyer, captain of the firstfloor, is Bud White. The hall guards are Jerry West, 141: Tom Frisch, 134, Jerrie Pokrywka, 1305 Leroy Lemle, 1269 Peggy Hartz, 118, Evelyn Szewczak, 110, and Bob Mason, 103: Give out with cheers tomorrow night DRIVE REPORTS SHOW DECREASE OVER LAST YEAR After the tabulation of the money was taken, the magazine drive was reported to be approximately 34,000 behind the expected total at the half way mark.'

Manton To Handle Annual Disabled Veterans Drive Each year at this time a disabled veterans auxiliary sponsors forget-me not day. September 27 is the day chosen by this year's sponsors, The Montfaucor Division. Girls from high schools all over the city are asked to assist. The time and the place to work may all be chosen by the girl herself. The supplies are deliv- ered to the salesman and all available conveniences are given. This year the highest salesmen will be given money to buy books for their school library. First prize is 350, second 330, and third 320.

Editorials NE of the biggest projects of Woodward High School is in the making. The annual magazine campaign, now in its eighth day is one of the best ways in which we may obtain the long awaited Woodward stadium. To the post graduate and sen- iors this sounds like the same old story. Some day, however, each and every student selling at least one subscription during the drive will have the feeling that they helped to lay one brick of the stadium. For many years the stadium idea had been only a dream. But each year, after the magazine drive, the dream comes closer to realization. Last year approx- imately S10,000 worth of magazines were sold. From Woodward's share, a new juke box was obtained for the students, thus repaying them for their ef- fort in the campaign. This year with a goal of 3B15,000, the school hopes to purchase a grand piano. Only by selling subscriptions during the present magazine campaign can these future plans come true. In the few days that are left, go out and talk more, perswade more and sell more magazines, Do Your Part! -r -or at NCE more the juke box dances are in full swing. Beginning last Wednesday, this early ' morning activity will continue for the remain- der ofthe school year. Many students enjoyed these dances last year and have requested that they be held on Wednesdays and Fridays of this year. New records have been placed in the juke box and all is in readiness for another season. A clean up squad has been organized and operators for the ju-ke box chosen. Last year these dances were very successful. There were a few bad spots such as failure of the boys to dance. However, as the dances continued the number of boys dancing greatly increased. By the close of the year a gre at number of boys were dancing and enjoying it, too. , On one occasion some unknown person scattered buck shot on the floor. At this time the future of the juke box dances was very uncertain. Mr. LaRue stated that if this kind of action continued, all morning dances would stop. We want to get off on the right foot this year. All persons are asked not to throw paper on the floor, If anyone insists upon doing this he will find the clean-up squad cleaning the gym of the rowdies and not the paper on the floor. These dances are for your enjoyment. When you attend them act in a mannerly fashion. Pk PK sk ACK in the Cro-Magnon days when people . wore their foreheads low and their jaws long, they had a civilization that was inferior to the lowest culture imaginable. In those days of beating women over the head with a club, men shouted in order to gain attention and to boast of their strength. Those days have gone and much has transpired since, but evidently there are some descendents of these low people who go to Woodward and show their prehistoric actions in the auditorium, regard- less if the oratory presented is good or bad. These people ruin the occasion for the majority of students who go to the auditorium to listen and get something out of it. Although we live in a democracy it doesn't look as if the majority rules in Woodward. Perhaps the teachers should watch for these troublemakers and eliminate their presence in fu- ture assemblys.

J, GRID PICKS By Sports Editor Three City League games are on this week's football agenda with Waite invading the Libbey stadium tonight and Woodward joining Cen- tral in meeting Scott and DeVilbiss respectively tomorrow night. We at the sports' desk will now endeavor to look into the future and select the winning teams. lk PF PF Waite over Libbey-We expect that Indian backfield to spell the differ- ence in this big game as the lines look to be equal. Bob Carson, Bill Martin, Joe Kovesdi, and Quarter- back Lyle Myrice should be more than a match for the Cowboy back- field composed of Ted Majewski, Bob Sarchiz, Joe Fosbender, and Dick Penrod. Waite by two touchdowns. rg: sz za DeVilbiss over Central--A tough one to pick with the pass snatching of 6'4 Jerry McCloskey and the ball carrying of Steve Wilhelm and John- ny Raster almost offsetting the power running of Fritz Lauffer, Bob Kaiser, and Don Harbaugh. As in the Indian-Cowboy fray, we would say the lines stack up about even. De- Vilbiss by no more than seven points. PF Pls 2l4 Woodward over Scott-Naturally the Bruins rule a sentimental favor- ite with all who attend Woodward but we of the Tattler Sports Staff believe the Bears will bounce back strong from the Waite defeat and go out and take the Bulldogs. The hard, fast ball carrying of Bob Aub- ry and Ray Varner at Waite was very encouraging although the line obviously needs quite a bit of brush- ing up on charging and turning end runs inside. Waite's sparkling end sweeps along with off' tackle smashes were practically 1he entire offensive gestures of the East Siders. 3: fi: fi: Last Week's Stars--Bob Carson and Bill Martin of Waite, Bob Aub- ry and Ray Varner of Woodward, Fritz Lauffer and Don Harbough of DeVilbiss, Bob Sarchiz and Dick Venrod of' Libbey, Jerry McCloskey and Johnny Raster of Central and .lack Henning of Scott. Buchholtz Looms As Star Of Distance Crew Woodward's long winded boys, better known as the cross country team, are already pounding the cind- er paths at Forest Cemetery, round- ing into condition for their opening two mile trek at Ottawa Park on Oc- tober 1. Dick Buchholtz, captain of the squad and one of the outstanding dis- tance runners in the city last season, is expected to carry the bulk of the grind along with veterans Bob Rut- kowski, Robert Puls, Ken Eble, Chuck Samson, Ernie Simpson, Dave Saygers, Ed Houghtaling, and Or- ville Kesling. Newcomers to the field are Jim Chubner, Paul Neft, August Puls, Bud Ziems, Len Palinski, Don Silka, Paul Kolasinski, and George Fenady. All boys who expect to try out for varsity basketball, excluding the fel- lows playing football, are requested to come out for the team to strength- en their wind and stamina for the coming basketball season.

' fi' H 'FKK' t . gil' -gg-50 FLEET BOB CARSON SPARKS WAITE WIN Bob Carson, Joe Kovesdi, and Bill Martin ran, passed, and plunged the Waite Indians to a 20 to 0 victory over Woodward last Saturday as the East Siders' powerladen aggregation put their bid in for the city title of 1947. The Indians took advantage of a fumble, a Carson aerial to Guido Tambur, and a 66 yard dash also by the fleet left half back to tally in each of the first three quarters. Bob also made good two of the three con- versions. Taimbur Tallies First Marker Waite's initial score came near the output of the first canto when Carson faded to mid-field, and finding Guido Tambur clear on the 15, passed com- plete for the touchdown. Bill Martin, Joe Kovesdi, and Car- son showed plenty of everything on the Indians' 73 yard march that scored the second tally. Bob again set the East Siders in scoring posi- tion as he went around his own right end, cut back, and went for 20 yards to the Bears' 4 yard line. Diminutive Joe Kovesdi then hit center for the t.d. After recovering Paul Miller's fumble late in the third canto, the In- dains were again headed for pay dirt. Skirting inside his right end, Carson wasn't to be stopped as he picked up his interference and raced un- touched 66 yards for Waite's final score. - Captain Aubry Stands Out Skip Aubry again displayed his ttquick-kicking ability, keeping the Indians away from the end zone sev- eral times. Red Varner and Aub- ry sparked the Bears on the offensive, but failed to penetrate beyond the 15 yard line through the big Waite line. Knowing that 10 first stringers will be graduated this year from the East Siders' eleven, Coach Pauly played the entire second team the final quarter. Matching statistics for the Bears' first city league encounter, we find Waite scoring 10 first downs with the Polar Bears managing 6. Woodward made good 7 out of 20 passes good for 55 yards, with the Indians con- necting 4 for 20 to give them 84 yards advancement. Tomorrows Line-up Probable starting lineups are as follows although they are subject to last minute changes. Woodward Pos. Soott Golden L.E. Kaighin Reaume L.T. Beach Wagner L.G. Allen Steger C.

OODWARD, COTT CLASH TO ORROW NIGHT 'E FAST BRUIN BACKS ZASADA MAKES LONE SCORE, AS CUBS LOSE Journeying to Fremont Monday, Woodward's Lightweight footballers returned with the short end of a 25 to 6 score. This loss balanced their record thus far, having won their first encounter of the season. Ross Rallies ln Last Half The Bears held Ross to nothing less than a 6 all deadlock at the' half's termination, but failed to stop the powerful running attacks of the second string varsity players the third and fourth cantos. Coming back after their halftime rest the boys from Fremont went on to score their tallies. Fighting a forward wall that was impenetrable to the Cubs' running offense, they had to take to the air lanes for their sole tally that came in the second quarter. Guard, Gene Wilcox set the pigskin in scoring po- sition, recovering a Ross fumble on the 15. At this point Beans Bieniek tossed to Bob Zasada in the end zone. A bad pass from center stopped- the Bears' attempt for the conversion. Freshmen Team Startedg Dave Handy, Head Coach This seems to be the start of a football era for Woodward. Now in- stead of only having the Varsity and reserves, there will also be a Frosh team headed by Dave Hardy. Dave is a senior at T.U. and he spent some time in Penn State College, the Marines and the Navy. Coach Hardy,'a DeVilbiss grad, spent three years in the armed services before taking the coaching job at W.H.S. As expressed by Dave Hardy, We need more equipment and more men. If we.can get these we may start producing good talent for the var- sity. ' The Froshs' lirst game is October 2, 'l947.

AGAINST LARGE SCOTT LINE Both Scott and Woodward go out tomorrow night in second attempts to gain their initial City League victory. The Bull- dogs failed last week against DeVilbiss and the Bears wound up on the short end of the score in their tangle with the Indians. Central also meets DeVilbiss on Saturday while Waite plays to- night against Libbey. Since each dropped their first tilt, the boys from Collingwood Avenue and Streicher Street are expected to give out with all they've got to evade being handed the keys to the cellar door which yawns wide open for the loser. ' Bear Pony Backs Set Coming out of the Waite game without injuries, the Polar Bear.pony backs are raring to go with elusive Ray Varner at the. tailback lposition, Charles White at wingback, plunging Bob. Aubry .at fullback, and Eddie Lair directing operations from the signal-calling slot. Capable replacements for these boys include halfback Ted Ro- KICKI, Fulback Fred Henzler, and Quarterback Paul Miller. Surveying the Bruin forward-wall reveals that it's in good shape but there is still an awkward tackle situ- ation resulting from the loss of Left Tackle Bob Schiehsl, who is still out with an injured wrist. Only two ex- perienced tackles, Don Reaume and Duane Tigges, are available. How- ever, Andy Nowak, 205 pounder, has been switched from his regular guard duties to tackle asignments. Scott Beasts Big Team Scott's ball club has one of the biggest teams in the city and is ex- pected to try to crush the Bears with line plays since they have no passers of a high degree. And judging from the success the Ft. Wayne team had with aerials, it would seem the maroon gridders are wide open for a passer of Ray Varner's accuracy. Sizing up the Bulldog backfield, it looks like Scott has plenty of of- fensive power with Tailback Jack Henning doing some great running in the DeVilbiss fray and Fullback Tom Duhigg along with line smash- ing Clark Cottrill supplying the power plunging. Quarterback Harold Barrett at 165 pounds is the smallest man in the backfield. t Coach Al Sacksteder's heavy line showed plenty of finesse in holding the Tigers scoreless in the first half last week and it probably will be plenty tough. End Cliff Kaighin, Center Chet Krolak, and veteran Bob Shay are main figures on this line as Krolak is a fine, alert pivot man and Kaighin is rough on defense. The cabinet for the Girls' Leaders Club was chosen Tuesday after school. Joan Lukasiewicz was elected president, Catherine Mikolajczyk, vice-president, Alberta Woodring, secretaryg Uoyce Young, treasurer. THE WOODWARD TATTLER .Pat's Patter -l'By Pat Becker - After the good showing against Waite last week, our team is really out to win a game.

Claims Sorton I believe that we have the material for a good band, said Edgar Sor- ton, and after hearing them we are inclined to agree. Although smaller than last year's, it makes up the difference in de- termination and talent. Under the capable leadership of Edgar Sorton it presents intricate formations during the halves of the Woodward football games. These formations, perfect only after repeated practicing, require much co-ordina- tion and skill. Constituents of this aggregation are Steve Kanidi, Chester Hopings, Rolland Jakubowski, Shirley Steger, Ted Gollman, Herbert Little, Alvin Wisnewski, Eugene ,Krum, Fred Hille, Bob Verbon, Kenneth Keel, John Blaszezyk, James Chambers, James Tellam, Joan Brown, Bob Whitenack, and Ray Turkington on the trumpetsg Joan Grycywski, Ralph Zaenger, and Gerald Meyers on the horns, Doris Marx, Dick Hero, Eddie Blasgkiewdski, and Herb Stockman on the saxophonesg Clarence Edwards, on the cymbal, Richard Rombkowski, Tommy Valdez, Tom Wagner, Jim DeLay, Dick Swartz, and Thomas Frish beating the drums, Delores Kanfield, Arthur Kubiak, Joe Glah, Carole Kraemer, David Wisniewski, Kenneth Rusch, Betty King, Luetta Vorderburg, Betty Durbin, Joanne Peyton, Joyce Brown, and Mary Ann Livecchi riding the reed fclarinet to youj and finishing up the musical section are Jack Remer on the baritone horn and Wilma Price on the bell lyre. Another essential part are the majorettes, under the captaincy of Shir- ley Managhan, drum majors, and flag bearers. Majorettes are Kay McLean, Phyllis Wolfe, Joyce Hennessy, Dorothy Stallbaum, Jean Couterier, Shirley Leon, Paula Fasnacht, and Donna Dawson, who acts as alternate. Leading the Vtwirling brigade are Clarence Fyfe, drum major and Edward Zylynski, assistant drum major. Keeping the nation's flag and the school flag high are Harry Collum and George A. Morris. During the half of tomorrow's game the band will present a show en- titled Moonlight Romance. Among the formations in this performance are a star formation, moon formation, and a heart formation. People going to the game will see a show well worth watching. 1 INTRODUCING ' 'J Mrs. Van Vranken Although not a newcomer to Wood- ward. Mrs. Isla Van Vranken has again assumed her position here as a mem- ber of our faculty. She had taught in the Commercial department here until her departure in 1944. During this per- iod she taught at Macomber. As is evi- dent, being at Woodward is like coming home to Mrs. Van Vranken. A native of LaGrange, Indiana, she received her Bacheloris Degree at Tri-State College in Indiana. Further continuing her stud- ies, she attended Toledo University, and Colorado University, and M i c h i g a n State University. A member of many organizations, she is an active member of both the Busi- ness and Professional Women's Club and the National Ofiice Managers of Toledo. Through these clubs, Mrs. Van Vranken keeps in close contact with business. She learns what is required of boys and girls, when they go out to work after graduation, in modern offi- ces. One purpose she strives for in her profession is to make her teaehing practical. Being a woman who corre- sponds with the modern trend in educa- tionfif it proves to be good of the ma- jorityj, she hopes the time will soon arrive when Woodward obtains office machines to be used by the Commer cial students. Mrs. Van Vranken, who by the way has one daughter, proved to be a very versatile woman by working at LaSalle and Koch's during the summer. On the part of Woodward and its members, we would like to re-welcome her to Wood- ward. New Class Progressing Driving classes, a new type of course being offered at Woodward under the direction of David Benson and his as- sistants, Mr. Long and Mr. Ingle are progressing rapidly. The students first lesson consisted of learning the parts of the engine and how to start and stop properly. . Now the classes are interested in making right hand turns. This is being done around Wilson Park because there is not much traffic in that vicinity. Ad- visor to these classes is Mrs. Mary Lrouse. - Substitute for Leo Robie last Mon- day and Tuesday was Mrs. Morgan. Mrs. Morgan acted as substitute last Dances To Be Continued Before School-In Gym Oh how I hate to get up in the morning! That once was our battle cry, but as of last Wednesday. that fa- miliar ting-a-ling seems to be a wel- come sign, at least twice a week, any- way. The greatest reason being that before school dancing has once again resumed. The first record of the morning is spun at 8:15 and the last at 8:55, in the girls' gym. On Wednesday and Friday, Leon Za- wisza takes on the responsibility of chairmanship of these dances. Assist- ing seniors are Richard Dressel, Victor Folta, Mildred Bukowski and Alice Waldo. Members of the Junior class who will set their alarm clocks a little earlier are Norm Crawford, Jim Chub- ner, Theresa Kaminski, and Paula Fash- nacht. Their job will be to inspect the gym after the dances and see that the room is put into order. Juke box operators are Leon Zawisza, senior, and Danny Wisniewski, junior. Charles LaRue principal and the entire, committee expresses the hope that this year's dances will prove as successful as last year. - Classes To Sew This year, Mrs. Lola Bowyer is teach- ing sewing class only. Making quite an array of styled suits will be the work of their advanced class during this term. Keeping up with the times, the skirts' will be of the new, longer length. Pleted and pegged skirts will be the stiles used. These smart suits will be complete when the bolero, boxed, or fitted jack- ets are made. X-Ray Reports Received During the summer all students and teachers whose chest x-rays proved normal received cards of congrat- ulations. Miss Hazel Coy, school nurse has as yet, received no report on any positive cases. These tests were taken last May 6 and 7 in a mobile unit fur- nished by the Bureau of Tuberculosis, Toledo Department of Health. Classes To Visit Library .Starting next week, Mrs. Dorothea Bishop announced that her English classes are going to the library once a week. Some periods will be devoted to assigned reading and others will be free reading. She plans to have her year for Watson Welever. 1 classes do as much reading asthey can.

Vol. XX Toledo, Ohio, October 3, 1947 No. 4 Dear Students: Considering the fact that they had only a few rehearsals, the newly organized cheer-leaders should be commended for a credible showing in their first public effort at the Scott game Saturday night. Cheer- leading is not as easy as it appears to be, as a few would be students found out when they came out of the stands to help out Sat- urday evening, particularly if they are bombarded, occasionally, by stu- dents shoes and fire-crackers. These actions are deplorable and certainly should not be condoned by loyal Woodwardites. In fact the cheer- leaders have deen instructed to with- draw from the field in case these actions are repeated. Fortunately, only a few unthoughtful ones were responsible. While there is considerable room for improvement, the cheer -leaders recognize their short comings and are practicing daily to master the routine of the current yells and will soon have some new ones to intro- duce to the student body. All they ask is your indulgence and co - oper- ation. If these are given them, cheer- fully, in the true Woodward spirit, our student cheering section will not degenerate to the level of the medieval mobs but will regain our reputation of being the most order- ly, loyal and sportsman - like student body in the city. Mr. L. C. Clark' Csponsori THIRTEEN TAKE HISTORY TEST ' Woodward seniors tried their wits on a state wide history test last Wednes- day, September 24. A total of seventy- five seniors from all Toledo high schools entered. To the winner in each county where the examination was, goes a two day, all expenses paid, trip to Ohio Uni- versity. During the tour, another exam will be given to the eighty-eight stu- dents. One hundred dollars will be offer- ed as the first prize, with fifty dollars for the second place winner. The con- testants were given one evening to pre- pare. Miss Ethel Kerlin, English teacher administered the test to the following students: Shirley Foxe, Joanne Leibo- vitz, Joanne Mattes, Rita Palicki, Rita Radecki, Elsie Rutkai, Joane Sackman, Joyce Schmidt, Frances Waltermeyer, Marion Antonini, Forest Black, Tom Burnep and Joe Shibley. The State Department of Education sponsored the test. Reports Issued Of the 228 boys, mostly freshman, ex- amined last week, 151 proved to be in good health. There were 107 notes sent out explaining the defects of the re- maining boys. Tonsils seem to be the outstanding ailment and the cause of the cold in- fections at Woodward. There were 26 urgent cases and 22 cases of tonsils to be taken care of in the near future. A- mong the other defects found were 24 cardiac condition and 19 cases of bad teeth. Examining the freshman boys last week were Doctors Rawley, Grodan, Curl, and Hartinger, who were assisted by four Public Health Nurses. Paul Thomae has reported that the enrollment of the Machine Shop is far below normal. The reason for this is not known to Mr. Thomae.

' For the advantage of the freshmen and the upper-classmen who do not know the words to our school song, copies of it were sold this morning before school.

You donit think the cheerleaders did a good job at the Scott game.Come here, Buster, I want to tell you a few things.You asked for girl cheerleaders and you got them!Now it's your turn to support them. All cheerleaders are asked to do is lead the cheer. Your're supposed to do the rest. There was nothing wrong with the cheerleaders with the exception of one fellow. He didn't know the cheers but you can't hold that against the oth- ers. My suggestion would be that you find the one cheerleader who didn't do a good job and pour out your complaints on him. If a few of you got after him I'd guarantee you that he would know his routine by next Friday night. By the way, Buster, I noticed you didn't do any cheering yourself last Saturday. Oh! You were dis- gusted with the way the game was going. You don't care if Woodward ever wins another game. If that's the case I'd suggest that you take that complaint to any boy on the football team. They would have answers to your questions. Of course you wouldn't like them one bit. You'd say they were unreason- able. Well, you condemn anyone who has done his best for you and his answers are very likely to be unreasonable. Especially if your complaint is un- reasonable. ' 0 Editorials Those boys on the field played the best ball they could. If they didn't they wouldn't be out there long. Whether they win or lose, just knowing they did their best should be sufiicient. With some sup- port from the stands these boys would play the kind of ball you want them to play. The kind that wins games. , No, Buster, you shouldn't be disgusted. It's the fellows on the team that have a right to complain. VERY worthy cause, which deserves our at- tention comes into focus on October 6. On this day the Community Chest begins its an- nual drive, which will continue through to October 17. During this time every member of the student body is asked to contribute at least twenty-five cents. This amount is comparatively small when we consider all the humanitarian agencies which will benefit by our contributions. Some 42 local agencies receive financial help from the Community Chest during each year. Without this help many of these agencies would be forced to close or greatly de- grease the amount of service they are able to ren- er. When the collection is taken, remember, those who are in desperate need of our help, and make your contribution a generous one. This Could Happen To You!

Greenie Dear Greenie, Knowing that freshmen aren't familiar with Wood- ward's system,I will be glad to pass on any informa- tion that will sid any of you. Those soft gongs you hear occasionally is to notify Mr. LaRue that he is wanted in the oflice, if by chance he's not there. They are also used to notify the teachers as to when to open the windows. , Mrs. Kuku Polar Chit-Chat Sipping out of those new paper milk bottles which is something new here at Woodward seems to be very agreeable to some.

We foresaw victories for Woodward and DeVilbiss. However, wc're still in a daze from the Bear-Bulldog fracas and will try again to pick the win- ners. df HK Pl! Scott over Dayton Stivers-Not knowing much about Dayton, it's ra- ther hard to select the winner of this tilt, but, on the basis of their show- ing against the Bears, the Scotters should come out wlith ya victory. Waite over Central-Although the Irish looked good against DeVilbiss, we still think Waite's backfield com- bination is enough to give anyone a tough evening and with a big line to back them up, they should outscore the Irish backs. It's hard to 'say how much the East Siders will win by, but we'll say two tougchdowns. Woodward Vs. DeVilbiss-After the Bulldog fray, it seems the Bears haven't recovered from the Waite loss but anytime the Bruins are ready to play the kind of ball they're capable of playing, we're ready to put in a victory vote for 'em. We would say this game stacks up even with DeVil- biss slightly favored on the basis of comparative scoresa against Scott. Last week's Stars--Ray Varner and Chuck White of Woodward, Bob Car- son of Waite, Bobby' Sarchiz and Harry Broadway of Libbey, Fritz Lauffer of DeVilbiss, Clark Cottrill and Dick King of Scott, and Jerry McCloskey of Central.

FIRST LEAGUE I BEAR GOAL TO IGHT WOODWARD WILL MAKE SUPREME t EFFORT TO RISE FROM CELLAR Woodward's Polar Bears will engage DeVilbiss tonight at Page Stadium, with the Bears having hopes of salvaging their first city league victory. The Tigers will also be all out for this affair since the victory will set them back in the win column after their defeat at the hands of the fighting Irish last week. In their opening encounter the Tigers stopped the Scott Bulldogs, 20 to 12, who last week trampled the Bears. Schiehsl Might Be Ready for Tigers Coach Elmer Vordeburg's hopes are brightened with the return of left tackle, Bob Schiehsl, 180 pounder, who the coach hopes will add needed strength to the left side of the Bruins forward wall. Bob suffered a wrist injury in the Bear's initial tilt and was therefore kept out of action until the doctor's o. k. was given. Andy Nowak and Jim Matthews will be ready to go as Bob's seconds, should the stiffness in hiswrist remain. At the left end, Coach Vordeburg will have to chose between Red Gardener and pass snatching Chuck Golden. Royal Wagner will round out this side as he will start at guard. With the outcome of the Scott game changes are sure to come in the line. Probable starts should include Dick Ubl, Duane Tigges, and Bob Jones, as guard, tackle, and end respectively on the left side. Dick Steger will fill his regular position at the pivot. Varner, Aubry Carry Scoring Punch Triple threater, Ray Varner, and Bob Aubry, hard running fullback, seein to carry the Blue and White scoring punch, along with the accurate southpaw passing of wingback, Bud White. Ed Lair, fully recovered from his army injury obtained in the Scott game, will be ready to go at the quar- ter back slot to complete the backfield quartet. DeVilbiss Has Well-Rounded Team The West End boys boast a powerful line, led by Co-captain Poger Wadsworth, 170 pound center. The Bruins should find it quite difficult to take the end sweeps against the Tigers with such fine ends as Tom Hessler and Dick Deveron to stop their advancement. Surveying the Tigers backfield it appears as though Woodward will do a lot to stop the hard line smasher, Red Kaiser, the fleet-footed halves, Fritz Lauffer and Don Harbaught, and the tricky plays that quarterback Mes- singer is known for calling. All in all DeVilbiss possesses a fine array of ball carriers. TIGGES REVEALS ALL TO TATTLER We're sure you've all heard of Dewey and the battle of Manila Bay. Well, right now we'd like to tell you of' another Dewey and the battle he hasnyt won yet. It seems that for 17 years flt happened on September 255 Duane Tigges has had the hobby of beating off women. Frankly, why would any girl want to even look twice at a six foot tDewey thinks it might be a lit- tle overj blue eyed, brown haired, flashy dressed, the feet have it, mem- ber of the senior class? Am I kid- ding? They say this left-handed right tackle is bashful, but only when in the company of a member of the fairer sex. He may not be any serious competi- tion for Bing although we must admit he does belong to the Varsity Room Chorus . In fact, along with hls talents in Physics, Personal Stand- ards, Saga, Typing, and Library work, he has written a song dedicatedhto Lydia Pinkham , his favorite girl. fJoke, I imaginell To prove that he's quite a man of the world, Mr. Tigges, who acted as captain of the Polar Bear crew dur- ing the Scott game last worked in a Chicago department store. CI think that's a joke, tool. Because he shines in the sports light, it's only proper that we tell you that Duane has 10 quarters of play to his credit without relief, 'since this football season started. , When I ask him which-tyueiof girl he preferred, he smiled intelligently, showing a full, perfect set of teeth, and answered, Blondes, brunettes, redheads, and all others. They tell me Lorraine Collins is a brunette. Woodward Lightweights Opened Season Yesterday Woodward's Polar Cubs opened their lightweight football season yes- terday afternoon, being entertained by the little Libbey Cowboys in their home corral. Last year, the Western Avenue boys inflicted a 19-0 score on the little Bruins. - Composing the reserves starting line were ends, Lehr Whitney, who returns to action after sustaining an elbow injury, and pass snatching Cur- tis Burnett. Tackle spots were filled by ambling Bob Superski, 220 pound- er, and Dave Zaski, 190 pound veteran of last year's crew. Capable men at the guard slots were Stan Moscow and Richard Ansara. Ready for im- mediate replacement was Gene Wil- cox, veteran guard or end. Starting ball carriers were Jim Szuska, at the quarterback slot, southpaw Bob Zas- ado at the wingback spot, fast step- ping-Frank Moore at the fullback position, and hard hitting Beans Bieniek ramming from the fullback position. George Veller, promising center, rounded out the regular lineup of the potential lightweight squad. Expected to see plenty of action were: tackles, Hoover and Abbajay, halfbacks, Bill Krell and Dave Parks, and field generals, Bill Young and Bob Phillips. Not much was known of Libbey's team, except that they usually turn out powerful squads. Last year's squad finished in second place, losing only to an undefeated Waite crew. The remainder of the reserve sea- son is as follows: DeVilbiss-October 9 ,,,,,..,,,,,,,,,,, There Waite-October 16 ,,,,,,., ,,,,,,,,, H ere Central-October 23 ,,,,,, ,,,..,.,, H ere SCOtt-October 30 ,.,,... ,,,,.,,,. H ere BRUIN LINE FAILS TO STOP COTTRILL, KING IN 37-7 LOSS Unable to cope with Scott's off tackle thrusts and end sweeps, the Polar Bears were buried beneath an avalanche of Red and White touchdowns last Friday to the tune of 37-7. This defeat gave Woodward sole pos- session of last place in the League standings. Cottrill Starts It Each team put up a stiff defense in the first quarter but with only 25 seconds left in this canto, Clark Cot- trill emerged free on the Bear 34 after hitting Woodward's left tackle and raced into pay-dirt. Cottrill's dash climaxed a 57 yard thrust by the Collingwood crew with Jack Henning and Tom Duhigg pick- ing up first downs in the drive. Early in the second period, Quarter- back Dick Barrett intercepted a Bruin pass on the Woodward 40 and two plays later, Dick King shot between the weakside tackle and end for a' 45 yard sprint to the payoff station. The extra point try by King again failed. Several minutes later, Halfback Cottrill capped a 70 yard march by plunging the final two yards. Tom Denman, King, and Cottrill led this attack with King successfully con- verting and boosting the score to 19-0 at the half. ' Varner Tallies Shortly after intermission, Wood- ward tallied its only touchdown on three completed aerials which covered 80 yards. Varner hurled the first two passes which carried the ball to the Scott 47 and then Chuck White tossed to End Chuck Golden who in turn lateralled to Varner and Little Ray raced 35 yards into the end zone. White split the uprights for the sev- enth point. Scott came right back and drove all the way to the Bear 1 but was finally stopped when Bob Aubry in- tercepted a pass and ran out to the 9. However, the Bruins failed and Var- ner kicked to the 48. Another Bulldog drive started and it took five plays for Scott to tally with Halfback Denman erasing the final 19 yards. Behind 25-7, Woodward pushed the ball down to the Scott 36 yard line before Right End Dick McCauley in- tercepted a short pass by Aubry on the 35 and galloped 65 yards to tally, making the score, 31-7. Another Bear march fizzled out on the Bulldog 15 and on the first play, Neil Miller skirted end and covered 85 yards for the sixth Scott touch- down. Bear Backs Sparkle Fullback Aubry with his quick kicks and hard running starred along with Varner and his running and passing. Chuck White played a good game.as his southpaw tosses and defensive work looked great. Center Dick Steger and Jack Hen- ning were ejected from the game in the second quarter while Duane Tigges also left the fray with an injured leg.

This personality plus gentleman was hatched almost seven- teen years ago in the November of 1930. His favorite foods are bananas and carrots featen rawj, while his stamp collection contributes to taking uv his time. - Energetic Rudy is now deeply en- grossed in Junior Achievement work. He is president of the Tarco Com- pany, which is composed of 25 Toledo high school students. This company specializes in rebuilding lamps, heat- ers, and other electrical appliances. This summer he was sent by the Junior Achievement to New York, as a delegate to the national convention. He remained there two weeks, at- tending convention meetings and viewing the town. Recently he spoke at a luncheon on What Junior Achievement Qan Do for Teen- Agers. At this luncheon George Vradenburg, general head of Toledo Council, was present. Each Saturday, beginning' this month the Junior Achievement holds meetings at which they discuss how to improve their product. These gatherings are held in a vacated downtown building, located on Jeffer- son and Ontario. Decorating Talents Displayed By Students On Bycycles Woodwarp,s bicycle battalion' 35 strong ' really brings out the elaborate genius of these two wheel riders. Not only are these vehicles garbed in an ar- ry of dazzling colors' but some carry a sparkling display of squirrel tails, col- ored lights, and saddle bags. Then, there are those fellows who beleive in speed and have stripped their transportation down to the bare essentials, two Wheels, a frame, and a seat. This variety of rid- ing materials helps by adding the much needed color to Woodward's bicycle court.

To make sure that we have more in the future, many defects must be elimi- nated. For instance, too many on- lookers block the front of the juke box making it almost impossible to hear the music. By now all the new records have been spun, but for the benefit of those who do not attend these dances they are printed here: Frenesi, I've Got You Under My Skin, Just Plain Love, I Think I'm Gonna Cry Again, An Apple Blossom Wedding, There I've Said It Again, Polka, Waiting For the Robert E.

This mass meeting was sponsored by the band under the direction of Mr Edgar Sorton. The purpose of the assembly was to send our team off to DeVilbiss in good spirits so that they will come back with a victory. Coy Checks School For Polio Symptoms In an effort to prevent apolio epide mic here at Woodward, Miss Hazel Coy requested each home room teacher to make acomplete check of all students, last Thursday morning. Any student with such symptoms as sore throats, headaches, head colds, and fever were immediately sent home with a letter to their parents, advising then to consult their family physician. Before being admitted to class again, these students had to obtain an excuse from Miss Coy the school nurse. All these precautions are being taken, to catch any person who may be carry- ing these germs around ,school and seriously in f e c ti n g the rest of the student body. ' Circus Ceremonies Clowns tumbling, balloons fl y in g through the air and pretty girl dancing. Does this remind you of something? Of coarse, it's the circus! During the half time tonight at the game the school band, directed by Edgar Sorton, will present a gala performance in which some of the cast from last year's extra- vaganza will take part. Encyclopedias In Library Two new encyclopedias, oneaworld and the otheraBrittanica have been added to Woodward's reference library. Teachers and classes may use the li- brary on Monday.

ENGINEEEUNG I , ,Sorton To Receive SOCIETY ACCEPTS jizz Hat, Blue Team TEN MEMBERS Going stronger now than ever be- fore the Woodward Engineering Soci- ety will begin its 27th year in early October. The society was started in October of 1921 when C. T. Cotter, who was head of vocational and in- dustrial work in Toledo schools at that time, suggested that all high schools form such a society. W. F. Rohr was advisor when the club was formed, and has kept, and capably filled, that position for the past 26 years. Although other schools formed engineering societies in 1921, the Woodward Engineering Society can proudly say it is the only one which has remained active from the day it started. The activities of the Engineering Society do not run in the rather popu- lar social trend as do other clubs. In keeping within their purpose the society has occasional meetings and a large banquet in May. The rest of their year is devoted to raising funds to help worthy boys obtain col- lege degrees. At present they are financing two boys at Toledo Univer- sity and one at Purdue. The Engi- neering Society is spending over S850 this year in helping these boys. This is truly a fine record. Money for these scholarships is raised by the boys in the organization and some received in the form of donations. Many prominent citizens give to the fund yearly as do others who fully realize the importance of this organization's work. The active members of the society collect sales tax stamps and turn them into the government for the refund. By these means the organization has beenable to financially help a good number of worthy boys. This year ten boys have been in- vited to join the society. These boys have good scholastic standards and are taking either math, science, or engineering courses. Lawrence Ban- kowski, Ted Rokicki, Frank Swanson, Wilbur Michalak Ronald LeBrecque, Stanley Krojewski, Ronald Johnson, Donald Wujciak, Bob Patton, and Dick Dressel are the new members of the Engineering Society. New Officers Elected By Secretarial Club Kate Mickols, president of the Secre tarial Club, opened the first meeting of the l947-48 school year by introducirg the cabinet to the new members. Plans were made for the formal initiation that was held on October 9. It was in the form of a dance after school in the Girl's Gym. Following this announcement, nom- inations were made for a new Sargeant at Arms. The former one, Dorothy Mil- ler, retired to act as program chairman. Jack Munger, Dick Steger Bud White and John Garzynski were nominated for this position. By a majority of votes Bud White was chosen as the new Ser- geant at Arms. He then chose his as- sistants the following boys, Wally Nowacki, Jack Smith, Bob Jones, Duane Tigges, Eddie Lair, Dick Steger and Jack Munger three future meetings have been arrange by the program chairman. They are: October 23- senior sketch given on what an Office Employer Expects. November 5- -Mrs. Constance Partee will speak on What An Ofiice Girl Should Wear. November 2l-- A Thanksgiving Dance given in the Girls' Gym. The meeting was then closed with the president reading various parts of the club constitution. Miss Marjorie Hamilton is advisor to the club. FIRE DRILLS HELD ' Practice fire drills were held last week in preparation for fire prevention week starting Oct 6. Enrollment of stu- dents, teachers, and rooms in use were also checked by the fire chief so that an unexpected fire drill may be given next week and timed according to these statistics.

CLUBS INITIATE Mary Whitenack and Joanne Konop, co-chairman of the initiation committee for the Fasces Club, set their wicked minds to work on their new members Thursday, October 9, from 6 to 9 p.m. at Riverside Park. Due to the absence of Miss Bertha Vermilya last week, the initiation of the new members for the Periclean Literary Society was postponed. The new date that was set for the initiation was Oc- tober 8, here at school. New members of the Hi-Y will be initiated on Tuesdy, October 14. SENIOR GIRL RATES HIGHEST IN TEST Honer comes to Woodward from many different directions. This time a senior girl has won laurels, not only for her alma mater, but herself, also Joanne Sackman is the winner from all of Lucas County in a recent state- wide history test. Miss Sackman rated the highest, over a total of 75 other To- ledo high school seniors. For her prize, she will receive a two day,'all expenses paid trip to Ohio Uni- versity, in Athens Ohio. During the tour gnoither exam will be given to 88 stu- en s. On October 18 Joanne will leave To- ledo at 10 p.m. for her destination. A few of the features planed for the trip will be a free airplane ride, and reded- ication at Cuttler Hall. The trip will come to an end after the second test. Ten prizes will be offered with first prizes 5100, second 550, and the last seven S10. Joanne expressed surprise and de- light when she was informed of her triumph. To See Movie I won't wait until the snowball season starts, before I buy that new hat. Those are the words of Edgar Sorton, the teacher whose home room really went out and sold those magazines and brought back, not only something for Mr. Sorton, but themselves, too. Each student in the class has his own choice as to what downtown movie he will see on school time. Approximately, 25 lucky salesmen re- ceived football passes for the remaind- er of the season, 12 basketball passes, and about 800 dance tickets were dis- tributed in all homerooms, with the ex- ception of five. Six students claimed Sagas as prizes Next Thursday, October 14, is the date for the winning Blue Team mem- bers to see a complete feature length movie during school time. Only those who sold at least one subscription dur- ing the drive will be admitted. The squirrel cage drawing was held Wed- nesday morning during the first, second, and third periods. S. B. Crouse's boys overhauled the cage for this annual event. The two radios were drawn at different times throughout the program, the smaller one going first. It's evident that Donna Bohn and Kenneth Rusch both desired watches, instead of bicy cles. The watches are 17 jewel Bulovas, with the retail value of 547.50 Donna has set the record in To- ledo with 8241. Clyde Van Tassel believ- es this to be a national record, also, but a complete check has not, as yet, com- piled. Winner of the ten dollar bill for sell- ing the most Curtis subscription was Rungus Haddad, who sold 3541 worth. Rungus was the highest salesman last year, and won the capital prize, which was a watch. Donna sold S77 worth of Curtis magazines, but she is ineligable because she won the capital prize.Run- gus' sales were mostly Saturday Evening Post, Holiday,and The Lady's Home J ounral. Helpers on the Blue and White Teams who are also entitled to see a movie downtown on school time are as follows: for the Blue Team, Peggy Hartz, Evelyn Hero, Alberta Miller, J oan Shep- hard, and Carla Williams. For the white team,Joan Bogdanski, Clarence Fyffe, Kenneth LaFountaine, Rita R a d e c ki, Juanita Reynolds, Kathryn Slates, Cath- erine Urbanowicz, and Mary Zarn. NAKOS WINS IN ' POSTER CONTEST First prize of S5 went to the artist of poster number 15, Irene Nakos, senior in the art department. She received 474 votes in the election held Thursday, October 2, with all students participat- mg. Bob McGill claimed the second prize of S53 with poster 50.'Since Irene Nakos received third prize of S2 from number 45 also, Principal LaRue decided that S1 should be given to the two people who tied for fourth place. Number 39 was drawn by Nancy Seibold and number 17 was drawn by Joyce Schmidt. ' The girls who helped count the 2,624 ballots were, Esther Welch, Alvis Bretz, Mary Lou Raymond, Carol Lou Kesler and Marcella Kleczik, juniors and Pat Dunes, Eleanor Epperly and Alice Rut- kowski, seniors. Mrs. Katzenholtz, art teacher, announced that she thought the stu- dents showed very good judgement in their voting. Movies To Be Shown Visual Education movies that were shown by Clyde Van Tassel during the week of October 1 to October 8 are as follows: The House Fly, Captain Kidd's Treasure, Science and Agriculture, Des- ert Demons, Transmission, Driveshaft, and Differential. A movie of last year's Army-Navy game will be shown on Monday, Oct. 13, and Tuesday, October 14 in Mr. Van Tas- sel's room for football players only. If this 6 reel movie can be held over, other students may be able to see it in the , auditorium for a small admission. THE WOODWARD TATTLER 0 0 0 Editgrials ITHIN a short period of time,three important elections will be held here at school. These refer to the sophomore, junior, and senior class elections. In these elections, the victors gain the privilege of representing their class in the pre- paration of all their social and business affairs. In order to vote wisely you must first fully appre- ciate the importance of electing capable oHicers. A class is just as strong as its weakest officer. A good class with weak officers may meet par scholasti- cally but find itself far below par in extra -circular activities. There are certain characteristics which any per- son wishing to hold a position should have. Among these are honesty, sincerity, perseverance, and other qualities you find in admiring persons. These general characteristics, however, are not sufliceint to mold capable class oflicials. Certain extra qual- ities are needed.The most important of these is the willingness to devote time. A class cabinet that is successful cannot be a fly by nightoutfit, i.e., it can- not plan activities on the spur of the moment when the officers have the free time. If its activities are to be successful much time and effort must be given to the planning. Another important quality is the know how. This means the know how on organizing and leading. Keep this fresh in your mind when you vote for officers to represent your class. Consider each can- didate and then vote for the best qualified. PF Ili PF gg ERE they come, shouts the crowd. Don't they look snappy in their new, oh! those aren't new uniforms! They're still wearing those old blue and white things! What a shame! Statements like these have been made numerously, at the Polar Bears grid contest by disgruntled stu- dents and the loyal adult following. Let's remember however, that a uniform doesn't make a player. This lack of grid togs is not only felt at Wood' ward, but at all the other area high schools. Cen' tral has been the most fortunate, receiving part of their football clothing while Sylvania Burnham has probably suffered the greatest setback because of the loss of their entire football clothing at a fire last spring. Woodward's athletic board cannot be blamed for this shortage of uniforms. An order for new suits has been with a Chicago firm for the past twenty three months. Don't think they aren't being press- ed for this shipment, for Woodward's colorful coach, Elmer Vorderburg, made a long distance telephone call and Cpolitelyl asked the head of the company if they are still chasing the sheep to try to get the wool for the jerseys. Elmer also promis- es that when and if the uniforms arrive they will be the classiest ones in town, being a sparkling white with numbers and trimmings in a bright blue. No matter what the team wears, give them all of your support and encouragement. - as ak ik FTER a careful physical examination of the freshmen boys, a very serious situation was discovered at school. The recent epidemic of colds both among the faculty and student body, may be the result of the tonsil ailments prevelant among the boys in 26 urgent and 22 minor cases. Notes were sent out to parents of the boys and a checkup will be kept to record the improvement in their conditions, but it would be best if the in- fected tonsils were removed immediately to prevent further spreading of cold germs around school. Although the examination was limited to fresh- men boys, any student who has infected tonsils should feel the same responsibility of having them removed as in the cases that were discovered through the examination. The Tattler Staff on behalf of the Woodward faculty and student body wish to extend their deepest sympathy to Genevieve Grant on the , recent death of her father, also to Louise Darah whose father passed away suddenly last Sunday evening. Deepest sympathies are also extended to Mr. C.C. LaRue, principal, on the death of his sister.

Waite by four touchdowans. ,F It Scott over Central-In our estima- tion, this is the toughest yet to pre- dict with the Bulldogs slightly fav- ored because of impressive showings against Woodward and Dayton Stiv- ers.

Though Captain and Chuck Samson second, respectively, tor of the meet was that the Irish harriers finished in the thirdhfourth, fifth, and sixth spots. Following this group were Ed Houghtaling, Bob Puls, a Central distance man, and Ernie Simpson. Buchholtz's time of 11 minutes for the course was the best in the city along with Bud Grogan of Libbey. j DICK GORDON SCORES POINT THAT WINS FOR BENGALS With. less than two' minutes remainmg, Bob Aubry shot a hlgh pass to Jack Smith in the end zone. Jack juggled the ball for a few steps, dropped it, and made a desperate leap to spear it as it hit the ground, incomplete. On the next play, Tiger Center Wadsworth grabbed 'another Aubry pass, his third intercep- tion. of the' game, and the final Bruin scoring threat dissolved as Wadsworth managed to reach the' DeV1lbiss one yard line, avoldmg a safety. After the Tigers had kicked out and muf- fled. the last futile Woodward scoring attempts, the gun banged with the scoreboard re- vealing. the figures. Woodward 6, DeV1lb1ss 7. Breaks Go Tiger Way That Aubry to Smith aerial was a vivid indication of which way the breaks went last Friday night as Dc- Vilbiss tallied in the first canto with a Hear fumble setting the stage and, after missing the first placement try, got another when the Woodward line was offside. The Bears were again offside on the next attempt, but Tackle Dick Gordon picked up the ball, which was bouncing on the ground after the referee's honk of the horn, and drove into the end zone for the vital point. On the opening kickoff, Chuck White had reversed to Ray Varner for a 90 yard touchdown return. However, another offside penalty cost Woodward with a sec- ond bad break following in quick succession when Little Ray was taken from the fracas with a broken arm after the first time he lugged the leather. Reserve Back Sam Kelentic scored the Bengal marker on a 20 yard dash after the Tigers set up the touchdown on the running of Fritz Lauffer and Red Kaiser. I Shortly after the half, the Tigers kicked to the Bear 47 from where the Woodward machine could only gain to the 50 in three tries. Aubry then went back to punt on fourth down but instead tossed to Chuck White on the Bengal 35. One play later, White southpawed an aerial to Smith on the 15 and Jack galloped all the way to paydirt. In a dubious bit of strategy, White's pass try for the all-important extra point fell short. Reaume, Forrester Stand Out Slashing into each others' backfields on almost every play were Right Tackle Don Reaume of Woodward and Guard Dick Forrester of DeVil- biss. Reaume, charging viciously, was largely responsible for the fail- ure of the DeVilbiss aerial attack which didn't produce a complete pass all night. Monk Henzler did some hard and fast stepping in the full- back slot, with Aubry at left half during the absence of Varner. Bear, Tiger Frosh Play To Scoreless Deadlock Woodward's first frosh team opened their gridiron season last Monday, playing the DeVilbiss freshmen to a 0-0 deadlock. Neither team showed a pow- erful offensive with the Tigers advanc- ing the ball closer to pay dirt, getting down to the Cubs' 20 yard line. Ball carriers Jack Bittle and Eddie Sczebul- ski turned in a fine all around game for Coach I-Iardy's frosh squad. Next week, the little Cubs tangle with a strong Waite eleven on the Cubs' home ground. BEARS BATTLE LIBBEY TONIGHT AFTER DROPPING TOUGH 7-6 GAME TO TIGERS CHAMPION COWBOYS LOOM AS BIG THREAT TO WOODWARD HOPES FOR INITIAL LEAGUE VICTORY TONIGHT When the Woodward Polar Bears journey to Libbey's corral tonight, they will be minus Little Ray Varner, diminutive left half and mainstay on the varsity eleven for three years. Ray received a broken arm in the DeVilbiss fray last week, and will be benched for an indefinite period, until his wing is healed. ' Henzler To Play Fullback To fill the important vacancy Varner leaves at left half, Coach Elmer Voderburg will increase the power driving in the back field, shifting Bob Aubry, regular fullback, to the tailback slot, and bringing up from the sec- ond string, Fred Henzler, a hard running full. Henzler played outstanding ball for the North Toledo Merchants last year, and should he play the kind of ball he showed in the DeVilbiss fray, he should prove quite a threat to the Cowboys. Bud White, the south paw passer, and fleetfooted Ed Lair will fill out the backfield at right half and quarter respectively. Ubl Back At Guard Post The Bears' line will also be ready for some switches due to injuries. Should Dick Ubl, right guard, fail to recover from his stomach trouble before tonight Dick Steger, regular pivot man, will be placed at his post with Norm Crawford understudy to Steger taking over the center slot. George Sabbaugh will likely start at the opposite guard with Roy Wagner a capable stand in. There will be quite a tussle for the tackle slots, with Bob Schiehsl likely to go at one tackle and, should Duane Tigges recover from his injury from the Scott tussle, he will start at the opposite tackle position. Andy Nowak, who has been playing in Tigges absence, and Don Reaume are the other big boys planning to be in there. Jack Smith and Bob Jones, pass snatching ends should get the call for the wings, with Chuck Golden and Red Gardner likely to see action. Libbey Out For Revenge Libbey's aggregation will be ready to go tonight with revenge in their hearts. They will be out to prove that the 13-O score the Bears compiled in the premier, to be a fluke. The Cowboys boast a backfield that will be hard to stop in Ted Majewski, Dick Penrod, Joe Fosbender and the triple threater, Bob Sarchiz. Looking over the Libbey line we find it one that should prove hard to penetrate with All-City Harry Broadway and Duane Loehrke playing the tackles that will be hard to move. Should the Bears try to skirt the ends, there to stop them will be regulars of last year, Co-Captain Jerry Palmer and Bob Coleman. SPORT LIGHT FALLS ON ROBERT AUBRY Our sportlight this week falls on a 170 pound senior fullback, Robert Aubry. Skip, as he is affectionate- ly referred to by his best pals Dick Steger, Ray Varner, and Dick Uble, land of course everyone else, tooj seems to be quite an interest for all W.H.S. females. To back up that statement, Skip rated higher than any other fellow with the new Zet pledges. For a few of the vital statistics, he stands not quite 6', but 5'111k , has brown hair on his head, has two blue eyes, lives at 3307 Jeannette, dials Po. 4476 when calling his Mummy, and was born on May 5, in the year 1929, which naturally makes him an old man of 18 years. After graduation he plans to go to California with his buddy-buddy Steger and spend his time somewhat like he did this summer at Lakewood Beach in Michigan, bumming, that is! I Can't Begin To Tell You was the reply to a few questions. One being his favorite song and the other his heart throb. tHe finally admitted that he and Mr. Uble both have girls from Libbey.D When he can sneak in Skip goes to the movies but mind you, Van Johnson attracts him soon- er than any other actor. Since chicken and dressing seem to be his favorite food you can bet that the next time that dish is on the menu at our house, we're going to have company. Is it a date, Skip? GYM CLASSES TO BEGIN SKILL TESTS NEXT WEEK Under the supervision of Physical Ed- ucation Director, Art Smith and Ted Szelagowski, the gym classes will start doing skill tests next week with chin ups being the initial exercise on the agenda. The 100 yard dashes were just completed this week. x BEAR LIGHTWEIGHTS ABSORB 12-0 DEFEAT Woodward's injury riddled Polar Cubs suffered their second defeat of the season, being set back by a. powerful Libbey reserve squad to a tune of 12-0 in their opening city league competition last week Thurs- day in the Libbey corral. It didn't take the Cowboys long to get started. A smooth passing at- tack moved the ball down to the Cubs' seven yard line where Simmy Harris erased the remaining yardage on a reverse to chalk up the Cow- boys' first score. The try for con- version was blocked. With halfback Frank Mohr and Beans Bieniek doing most of the ball carrying in the second quarter, the Bears moved down to the Cow- boys' 35 yard line, but the attack bogged down when Libbey recovered Bill Krell's fumble. Cowboy half- back Perry again hit Harris with a long pass and the fleetfooted back raced for pay dirt. The Cubs' for- ward wall again surged through to block the try for the extra point. Both teams stiffened on defense with neither squad making any ser- ious scoring threats in the third quarter, although the Cub's diminu- tive Dave Parks and Bob Zasada showed spurts of potential scoring punch. Zasada's fine kicking kept the Cowboys well back in their own ter- ritory. Libbey made one more scoring bid in the final minutes of the game when they reached the Bruins' 20 yard line, but the Cubs' front wall rose to stop the threat and end the game. They're not flying discs that you see in the air, it's only the girls' gym classes practising archery. Dif- ferent teams will alternate each week so that juniors and seniors will have a chance at speedball and arch- ery. THE WOODWARD TA'I'I'LER Pat's Patter Remember the premier?

REVEALED BY BOHN RUSCH Semi' Sketches By Pat Becker , By Marilyn Gribbin i- Donna Bohn 'Twas the night before the 28 of No- vember, 1931, and all through the house, cigars were burning, people were hap- py. Why? Why, Donna Bohn was born. Natch! CThis is strictly confidential, on the same night an uncle of Donna's name Lou , crashed out of stir, so they renamed her Donna Lou Bohn.2 This pretty, blue eyed, honey blonde lassie answers the phone Ma. 4532 at 1016 Ba- ker Street. Packed into her 5 5 frame is a determination to sell, and the 3241. 50 which she collected in the magazine drive gives proof. Of this amount, S77 was Curtis sales. Prizes which she would have been eligible for were a Saga, football and basketball passes, 10 dollars, and many chances in the squir- rel cage, but since she accepted the watch she is ineligible for these. Tennis and reading take Donn's time, and when she isn't doing those or mak- ing some Scrooge buy a magazine, she spends her time with Sharon Powell. Martha Malt, and Joyce and Joan Brown. Of course, there's a man in this panorama, who is the army, and remain anonymous. . Being the only girl in the family, she should be a spoiled brat, but teachers and students find Donna an interesting individual with a great personality. Boy is she lucky she didnit have an uncle named Aloysius. SENIORS PLAN COMING ELECTION The first phase of the senior elections will take place on Tuesday, October 14, with a meeting of all seniors. Immedi- ately after this meeting, petitions will be taken out for the following offices: president, vice-president, treasurer, sec- retary, reporter, and sergeant at-arms. To have a healthy election at least 3 persons should run for every position. Every student is asked to refrain from signing any petition twice because this will disqualify both signatures. Each candidate must have twenty-five signa- tures on his petition. All petitions must be turned in by October 17. On Monday, Oct. 20, there will be a senior meeting at which the candidates will present themselves and their carn- paign plans. Seniors will vote in a pri- mary election on Tuesday, October 21, in which all but two candidats for each office will be eliminated. The final elec- tions will be held in Hrst hour classes on October 24. COLORED FILM LECTURES TO BE SPONSORED For the third year the Toledo Natur- alists Association and the National Au- dubon Society are sponsoring Audubon Screen Tours, a nationwide color film lecture series which is shown to arouse an interest in creatures of the wild. There will be six tours and all except one, which is to be at Scott High School, will be held at Macomber Voca- tional High School at 8:00 P.M. The first lecture of the season was Tuesday October 7. Season tickets are priced at 551.00 and adults at 32.50. Any person wanting to purchase either an adult or , student ticket may secure them from Miss Amie Miller. i.,., . - CANTEEN TO OPEN Leo Robie announces that the opening date of the North End Teen Town will be Friday, Oct 10, at Riverside Shelter House. 1 This year seventh and eighth graders may attend on Friday nights and U high school students on Saturday nights. Paul Mabie's dance band has been se- cured for the initial opening. Mr. Robie is advisor to this organization. The can- teen is sponsored by the Parent Teach- ers Association. Kenneth Rusch Kenneth Rusch, sophomore, ,is shar- ing the limelight this week with his fel- low salesman, Donna Bohn. His accom- plishment is one not reached by many, He is credited with selling 5110.50 worth of magazine subscriptions. Not at all of backward character, it is easy to sur- mise his methods of selling. He has a winning friendliness that, I am sure, proved an asset to his selling ability. Ken used no special tricks in ac- cumulating these sales. He began with his friends and neighbors, as we all do. From these sources he received tips on others who would also be interested. Keeping his two important senses f eyes and earsj open, proved to be beneficial in obtaining further prospects. He is convinced of one thing though. The lat- ter being that once a person has the conviction he does not want a magazine subscription, it is next to impossible to sell him one. Nevertheless, this proved no impediment to Kenneth. As his award for this achievement he chose the watch. Being a person of many interests, Ken has three that rate first with him. They are music, Donna Hiles and building airplane models, Donna Hiles and oh yes, Donna Hiles. Seriously though, he plays both the clarinet and saxophone. He contributes his musical talent to both the band and dance orchestra. His one ambition is to achieve yet better results from his playing. If Kenneth pursues this as he proved to do in the magazine drive, nge may be sure his goal will be reach- e . 22 SOPHOMORES STUDY JOURNALISM Don't look now but everything, and everyone is covered.

Hi-Y Visits Radio Station If you had your radio on last Tuesday, September 30, and had the dial turned to 1230 W. T. O. L. and it sounded differ- ent, don't let it worry you. Craving for more knowledge on the subject of radio Woodward's Hi-Y journeyed to said sta- tion for their monthly meeting. On arrival at 8:00 the boys were met by an engineer who conducted the tour How a radio program is picked up aud relayed to another station was ex- plained to the group. Wandering into another room, the club saw how a net- work program, this one being Town Meeting, is cut in order to give a commercial transcription. When the tour was completed the boys were given the opportunity to ask questions. Joy E. Mohrhardt is advisor to the Hi-Y and Ernie Simpson is president. Showcases Available During the school year many organ- izations and classes like to display their handywork for the interest of the student body. The show cases on the second iioor are here for this reason. In the future the Tattler Office will be in charge of keeping the cases supplied with material for show. The committee to arrange the displays will be headed by Irene Nakos and includes Theresa Kaminski and Mary Jane Miller.

X U V01, XX Toledo, Ohio, October 17, 1947 4 No. 6 Bowyer to Fill Vacancy Left By Kerlin Mrs. Lola Bowyer, After many years of rendering much service, and being a great friend of all sophomores, Miss Ethel Kerlin resigned as advisor to the sophomore class. Filling this position is Mrs. Lola Bowyer, who promises to be as great an advisor as her predecessor was. Mrs. Bowyer is capable of assuming the numerous responsibilities as class advisor and she is willing to devote her time to the class activities. Miss Kerlin's loyalty to her duties as sophomore advisor is remembered by the upperclassmen and graduates, because she was always friendly and willing to sacrifice her time and efforts in co-operating with class pro- grams. The reason for her resigna- tion is so that she can devote all her time to the Future Teachers' Organi- zation, which she is sponsoring. This new activity will require much of her effort, but she will not lose all contacts with sophomore programs. This sophomore class is fortunate in securing Miss Bowyer as its new advisor. She stated that she is very happy to help Leo Robie with class programs and they plan to start this year's activities next month. Thirty-Two Seniors Take Out Petitions Senior petitions were given out Wed- nesday after the senior meeting. The pe- titions must be in October 17, and the candidates will be presented at a meet- ing October 20. The senior primary ele- ction will be helb Octobet 21, and the final election, October 24. Students taking out petitions for senior class president are: Bob Aubry, Jack Smith, Gene Snyder, Ray Varner Bob Jones, and Calvin Harding. Shirley Foxe, Virginia Domkowski, Virginia Weiss, Marion Antonini, La- Verne Steffan, and Ed Lair are running for vice-president. The following six seniors are runn- ing for secretary: Ernie Simpson, Alice Waldo, Rita Palicki, Catherine Mikols, Nancy Hansen, and Madalelyn Stam- mer, Irene Nakos, Joan Marok, Wallace Nowicki, Bob Puls, Fred Henzler, Dee Kanfield, and Clarence Fyffe took out petitions for Treasurer's position. Delores Roznoski, Pat Becker, and Evelyn Naeorocki are running for re- porter.

This is the firstmeeting of this type to be held at Woodward. Chair- man of the refreshment committee is Catherine Coble. Assisting her are: Helen Korecki, Irean Nuszbaum and Viola Frisch. Mrs. Lucile Farrell will have charge of the meeting. This was formerly taken care of by Miss Dor- othea Bishop. ouorri NOTFREACHED Did you give? Do you have a guilty conscience? Well, it s too late now because the Community Chest Drive ended Monday, October 13. A goal of S5400 was set, but only 3222.58 was collected. The following eight rooms were a 100 per cent: Joseph Dence, Miss Helen Marie Griffin, Mrs. Grace L. Kellermeier, Mrs. Mary O'Brien, W. F. Rohr, O. M.

Joy Mohrhardt is the advisor of this organization. FIRST DANCE OF SCHOOL TERM TONIGHT SE ' ll ' ll J Sfudeni' Council Get Acquamied jfw Dance Tonight: Paul Kur1'h and Band fo Provide Music I may not know you now, but if youre going to the dance toni ht, the TATTLER Student Council will do its all mightiestn to see that you ang I get acquainted. Another social year at Woodward gets merrily on its way to- night at 8 o'clock, when the ballroom doors swing gaily open to the mellow music of Paul Kurth and his Musical Buddies. A ticket purchased from any council member for only sixty cents enables you to while away the evening hours enjoying all the conveniences which co-chairmen Joyce Young, senior, and Helen Korecki, junior, have arranged. FALL DECORATIONS PLANNED Although the theme of the dance is getting acquainted, a Fall atmos- phere will be carried out in the decorations. Nancy Barnes, chairman of this committee. had the able assistance of the entire organization in bedeck- mg thc- gym from rafter to rafter for this gala affair. If anyone within miles d'dn't know about the big dance, it certainly isn't Rudy Renz's fault, because he put forth all his efforts to see that the publicity end of the busi- ness was capably handled. u Wear your best bib-n-tucker tonight, kids, because Gloria Gaeth is plan- ning to spend part of the evening checking. Since Gloria likes to dance, too, all the members will rotate in helping in the check room. Selling tickets for this initial social outing was dropped into the nands of Catherine Coble. Tonight will be the entire faculty's night out, also. Considering the fact that the teaching staff has been spending the last five weeks slaving over text books, Frances Waltermeyer and Irene Nusz- baum, the invitation committee, decided to invite, as guests of honor, the principal, deans and entire faculty. If you're not quite sure as to whether or not you want to come tonight, we now introduce the two co-chairmen. After reading about them we're sure that you'll agree that the dance is bound to be a success. JOYCE YOUNG Basketball heads the list as Joyce Young's favorite sport. Deciding to be different, this blue-eyed beauty's favorite hobby is eating fried chicken at 1009 Brookley Blvd. She likes all boys, but especially Bill. fDoes any- one know his last name?J Proving she is quite a leader, Joyce is the treas- urer of the Leaders' Club. She is also an active member of the Secretarial Club. Standing out in other club activities Joyce is vice-president of the Student Council and co-chairman of the Zet formal. HELEN KORECKI Favorite food is spinach. No, not Popeye, but blonde Helen Korecki. fShe likes Wheaties toolj Her first glimpse of day occurred 16 years ago on Friday 22, 1931. Football and reading are her favorite pastimes, when sister Wanda and Doris Urban aren't around, that is. For anyone who likes a cute, nice, active, and blonde girl Cis there anyone who doesn't?i her address is 2748 Lagrange Street. Helen is also kept busy as secretary of the Student Council. She attends meetings of the Peries, Secretarial, and Polish Literary Society. Last, but not least, she is a proud member of that hard working organization, the Tattler Staff. Since all the members of the Council took active parts on all the com- mittees it is only fair that they all step forward to be recognized. They are: John Sinkovic, presidentg Irean Nuszbaum, Lewellyn Watson, Joyce Young, Frances Waltermeyer, Rudy Renz, Gloria Gaeth, Helen Korecki, Don Cukier- ski, Edwin Blasczkiewicz, Andrew Douglas, Richard Lewis, Catherine Coble, Nancy Barnes, Billie Arnold, Viola Frisch, Helen Marie Majka and Susie Rensch. SPECIALPRESS l CONFERENCE TO BE ATTENDED In connection with the Northwestern O h io Industrial meetings, a special press conference for editors of all high school papers and their advisors will be held O c t o b e r 22 at the Commodore Perry Hotel. Each editor will be given the oppor- tunity to interview Earl Bunting, who is president of the National Association of Manufactures, and is a well known spokesman in the industrial world. After that, a press conference will be in the English room of the hotel at four p.m. Since Richard Dressel is editor of the Woodward Tattler, he will attend this affair. Accompanying him will be Mrs. Marie Ersig, advisor of the publi- cation. This is thought by the Board of Edu- cation to be worth while experience for the editors and is to further their jour- nalistic knowledge. PARTY HELD IN GYM Dancing and cokes always make a good team. This was proved at the Secretarial Club initiation held in the girls' gym October 9, from 3:15 p. m. to 4:15 p.m. Both old and new members at- tended and a good time was had by all. Admission was by showing a receipt of payment of dues, or by paying dues at the door. ELEVEN J UNIORS RUNNING FOR SIX OFFICIAL POSITIONS As the election day approaches for junior class officers, there are only eleven people running for six offices. President and vice-president have only one candidate apiece: secretary, treasurer, and sergeant-at-arms, two apiece. Reporter's position is the only one where the essence of competition can be detected, with three candidates in the running. Richard Perry, last year's sopho- more president, is the sole person running for junior prseident. Last year, along with Dick, Norm Craw- ford, Hugh Henly, Ted Rokicki, and Neil Rockwell ran for this highest office. Running for vice president is Tom Papps. Last year there were five candidates for this position. They were vice-president, Theresa Kamin- cki, and the losing contenders, Helen Burdginski, Jim Chubner, Rudy Renz and Jean Sloan. Fighting for Secretarial honors are Nancy Harter and Joan Kosmatka. The past election saw four running, Nannette Foran, Charlotte Schaust, Mira Slichcinski and Henry Wiec- zorek. Ronnie Barrow, running to retain his treasurer's position, is getting stiff competition from Jeannette Kleinhans. Along with Ronnie last fContinued on page 41 THE WOODWARD TATTLER e e 0 Editorials ' OMETHING new has been added! Yes, like Ra- lieghs something new has been added to the se- nior, class elections at Woodward. It may not be moisture, but it is something which will better the class. In past years campaign managers have been al- lowed to talk before the senior class on behalf of thier candidate. This was fine - - - for the candidate. Especially if the campaign manager was intelligent and had a gift for smooth talking. However, this year the candidate will appear before the class and deliver his campaign speech in person. This will enable the class to see the candidate and judge him and not the finesse and glib talk of his campaign manager. You, who are seniors, will have a chance to see the potential class officers in action at this meeting. Look them over and choose wisely. all DF 3 UN and excitement reigned in the auditorium last week when the annual squirrel cage draw- ing took place. Prizes from a miniature radio to stimulating pearls were won by deserving sellers. At the close ofthe campaign, Woodward had reached a total of approximately S6000. This amount was just S9000 short of our estimated goal. Reasons for such a downfall from last year QS10, 0003 can only be attributed to pure laziness or a let the other fellow do it, attitude. It was estima- ted that only 5072, of the student body sold maga- zines during the campaign. If every student in the other 50 per cent would have sold one subscription, Woodward would have surpassed its goal Congratulations ,are in order for one half of the school. What happened to the other half? Pls lk Pk EW additions to the first floor hall are the two new trophy cases. Credit should be giv- en to Lee Rynder and S.B. Crouse for the wonderful job they did in refinishing these cases. After waiting the whole of last year, we now have aplace where our trophies can be proudly ex- hibited. These trophies were secured through the hard work anb good sportsmanship of Woodward students. In their new place of honor in the trophy cases we can clearly see them displayed and be right- fully proud of them. Il IF 12 ANG, splatter, ouch, these are some of the sounds that we often hear in the hall after lunch. What are they and Why? Well it seems as though some people just don't know what to do with left over fruit and other things after lunch. Some fellows have the idea that food should be thrown around instead of eaten. There are too many students bringing a large lunch and then wasting it instead of saving it for later when they, are hungry, or taking it back home. President Truman urges all of us to save food and this does not only concern our parents. Here in school we can save by carrying a smaller lunch, buying less in the cafeteria, and saving what is left over. There are altogether too many hungry people in Europe who would gladly have the food we waste, for us to be throwing it around.

BEARSFHAVE EXTRA WEEK' RE T FOR WAITE COWBOY LINE STOPS BEAR CUBS GIVEN By Sports Editor A Scott romped over Central, 26-6, and Waite edged DeVilbiss, 15-7, last week to bear out our predictions of wins for the Bulldogs and Indians. The latter two correct picks added to our former season's record of three correct out of five boasts our total to five right predictions, two wrong ones and a percentage of 71W. Now, after four straight correct picks we again venture into the unknown to try to extract the victorious from the dim future. ak :R -r Waite over Steubenville - After what looked like an inevitable let- down last week against DeVilbiss, we expect the East Siders to again swing into high gear tonight at the home of the Big Red with the Indian backs running hard behind a big and experi- enced Waite forward wall. However, the Steubenville eleven is rated high- ly and although it dropped a 19-13 contest to Campbell Memorial last week, Massilon could only gain a 13-12 edge. Waite by at least two touchdowns. X 95 it Barberton over Libbey-In a battle of two teams both rated in the top ten of the state, anything could hap- pen, but we put the finger on the Magics although the Cowboys are probably rated a slight favorite in football circles. The Magics, unbeat- en in five tilts, suffered a 19-12 re- verse last year at the hands of Libbey and no doubt will welcome the South Siders with a bag full of tricks in an effort to avenge last year's defeat. And with a line averaging 180 pounds and an array of good backs, we think their effort will be a winning one. Canton McKinley over Soott-De- spite McKinley s first setback, 7-6 to Canton Lincoln last week, we think the Bulldogs of Canton have enough left to triumph over Scott's surpris- ing ball club. McKinley, rated first in the state before being stopped, has back four regulars on the line and some high-stepping backs headed by Ray Wetzel, although he may be out with an injured ankle. Fumblitis seems to be the main trouble of the downstaters, who fumbled 14 times in their loss to Canton Lincoln. Scott, with four wins in. five starts for the season, could be very tough, but we'll stick to the dope sheet and select Canton McKinlkey.v X .,. DeVilbiss over Dayton Fairmont- After giving Waite a big scare, the Tigers look to be ripe to start on the victory track although the Dayton boys may have something to say about that. We look for hard charg- ing Guard Dick Forrester and hard running halfback Fritz Lauffer to spell a win for DeVilbiss, who drop- ped a 19-13 decision to Vic Janowicz and his Elyria mates in their only other outside game of the season. DeVilbiss by ax toutchdgwn. Central over Steubenville Central Catholic-After that licking at the hands of Scott last week, the Irish don't look to be in such fine shape, but we'll string along with them in the belief that since Jerry McCloskey is probably not too well prepared for and will have a field -day in snatching short aerials over the line. How- ever, if Steubenville can stop McClos- key they've stopped practically the entire Irish offense and will be in a fine position to upset the Toledo ag- gregation. BEAR OFFENSE AS LIBBEY WINS, 27-0 - Despite the bull-like rushes of Fullback Dick Doc Steger, and the hard, fast 1'unning of Bob Aubry, the Polar Bears suffered a 27-0 whitewashing last Friday night at Libbey Stadium. The alert Cowboys intercepted six Bear aerials and recovered about five Woodward fumbles, these miscues stopping several Woodward drives and setting up two of the four Cow- boy scores. Along with Steger and Aubry, End Ralph Gardner and Guard Soupy Sabbaugh did some fast charging to stand out for Woodward in an other- wise Libbey night. Captain Bob Schiehsl also worked hard to do jus- tice to being given the honor of the captaincy and that left side of the Bruin line became mighty rough at times. On the Libbey side of the ledger, Bobby Sarchiz, Joe Fosbender, Bud Jacoby, and Dick Penrod did the lion's share of the ball carrying very well, while the Cowboy forward wall treat- ed the Bear passers rough the entire evening. , Fumble Leads to First Score Tackle Harry Broadway set up the initial Libbey tally early in -the first quarter when he recovered a Bear fumble on Woodward's 38 yard line. Joe Fosbender picked up a first down on the 28 and after Dick Stambaugh passed to End Jerry Palmer on the 10, Jack Edwards bolted around his own left end into the end zone. Sar- cl1iz's try for the extra point was blocked. On the resulting kickoff, Bob Au- bry took the ball on the Woodward 15 and sprinted 46 yards all the way down to the Libbey 39. Bob then passed to Rokicki on the 32, but the next three plays combined lost to the 33 and Libbey took over. Shortly after the end of the lirst canto, the South Siders again scored. This time the Bears kicked out of bounds on their own 43, and Joe Fos- bender and Bud Jacoby carried the pigskin for two successive first downs to the 16. Bobby Sarchiz then streak- ed over the strongside tackle of the Bruins and crossed the last white line. Sarchiz also converted to make the score 13-0 at half-time. Cowboys Put On 56 Yard Drive Starting on their own 44 after Sarchiz returned the kickoff to that spot, Libbey needed exactly nine plays to tally as Penrod, Sarchiz, and Ed- wards led the march. After being pushed to the 32 on a fifteen yard penalty, the Cowboys got rolling when Sarchiz tossed to Edwards on the Bear 42, followed up by Fosbender gaining a first on the 30. Three plays picked up another first on the 20, and then after a plunge by Fos- bender to the 19, interference was ruled against Dick Steger to the one yard line when he tackled the intend- ed receiver, Niehous, on a pass from Sarchiz. Sarchiz then reversed to Penrod for the score. Woodward then took the kickoff and drove to their own ,36, with Steger picking up a first down, before Center Paul Philips intercepted an aerial by White on the 50. Libbey was penalized for clipping back to their own 35, but fast stepping Dick Penrod made that up and then some as he flashed around left end and SECOND STRAIGHT LEAGUE LOSS, 13-0 Behind their bruising full- back, Don Blair, a lad that should give stiff competition to ed Kaiser next year for a varsity berth, the DeVilbiss lightweights stopped the Cubs of Woodward 13 to 0 last Thurs- day. Taking the opening kick off, Don returned the pigskin 60 yards, just short of a score. The Tigers scored m the first and third periods to record their win. Their first tally came on a short aerial, the second on a run by Blair. Large Tiger Line Too Tough Falling to display the type of ball capable of the Woodward light- weights, they were allowed advance- ment to the 34, and no further, by the Tigers' bulky forward wall. Dave Parks, hard running left half, and power driving Beans Bieniek turned in the best games for the day, accounting for most of the Polar Bears' yardage. 6611 l Dick Buchholz First Again In Bear Defeat Coach Watson Welever's cross country squad suffered their second straight loss to an undefeated Libbey squad, 26 to 31, even though the Bear's captaln Dick Buchholz again walked ofl' with the top laurels, cov- Cflllg the course in 10:47, the best time for any runner in the city. The loss of Ernie Simpson and Chuck Samson, due to illness and an ankle injury, greatly hindered the Bruins, chances in this tilt for Sam- son and Simpson placed second and tenth,-respectively, against Central's Irish in last week's encounter. Bud Grogan turned in the best performance for the Cowboys, garner- 1ng 'second place, and followed closely by two team mates. Ken Eble, Ed Houghtalmg, and Bob Puls finished in the fifth, sixth, and seventh spots, respectively, for the Bears. The last three positions of the top ten men were filled by three Cowboy harriers. Next week the Bruins match strides against the Scott Bulldogs over the two mile grind. romped 65 yards to the payoff land. Final Bear Drive Fizzles With the score 27-0, the Bears put on their only sustained march of the night which at one time reached the Libbey 38. This march was good for 33 yards with Ray Barker, a convert- ed end, and Steger sparking the drive. Steger returned the kickoff to the 29 and one play later Barker flipped to End Gardner on the 44 for a first down. Steger faded back and passed, again to Gardner, down to the Lib- bey 46. Barker carried to the 43' for another 'first down and after Steger passed incomplete, Dick lugged the leather to the 38. However, Barker was tossed back to the 48 on the next play and Woodward was forced to kick. Woodward managed to reach Lib- bey's 17 in the closing minutes of the game after the Cowboys punted to the 25, but the Libbey line stiffened and shoved the Bruins back to the 26. 1 Fullback Bob Aubry Has Knee Injury Due to an open date, Wood- ward's injury-stricken Polar Bears gain a two-week rest be- fore bumpmg into W ai t e ' s league-leading Indians n e x t week. This breather in the Bear schedule looks as if it were made to order for the Bruins who now have approximately two strings w1th almost half of them favoring some sort of an injury. There is no distinction between line and backfield wounds, with both the forward wall and backs equally ham- pered by injuries. I In the line, Duane Tigges' ankle injury seems to be the most impor- tant injury, although he is expected to be ready to go against the Indians if he can regain his old tackle post from Junior Don Reaume, who played terrific ball in the DeVilbiss fray. Left Tackle Bob Schiehsl is just re- covering frorn a broken wrist which is liable at any time to snap again, while Dick Ubl has just recuperated from an abdomen injury suffered in the Waite game, and End Chuck Golden has had to wear special pads for some time due to a shoulder wound sustained during the summer. Guard George Sabbaugh has been hit by injuries in the latter games with Jack Smith also sustaining a leg wound, just recently recovered from. Turning to the backfield, of course Ray Varner's broken arm is the most serious casualty. But Bob Aubry might have sustained a blood clot in his knee in the Libbey game although he is expected to be ready for the Waite tilt. Chuck White also has an ankle injury which permitted him to enter the Cowboy-Bear fray for only a limited time. Speedy Fred Henzler wore a nose guard in the Libbey game, due to a bruised nose sustained recently. . Bear Frosh Drop Close 13-6 Decision To East Side Cubs With less than a minute remaining in the game, a pass from Jim Zieroif to Dick Lassater netted the Waite Frosh team a 13 to 6 victory over a hard fight- ing Woodward eleven. The scrappy Bears held their own the entire game with the score dead- locked at 6 all, only to see the win slip through their fingers in the dying sec- onds. Thee passes accounted for the scores of the game. Lary Haddad gathered in one for the bears' lone tally, while Jim Zieroff pithed two complete to Dick Lassater, the latter of course being the game winning heave. Fred Abbelglan added the extra point for the Indians. Maybe you have been wondering too, why there are so many clean faces seen peering around school. Well, here's the secrel, after the gym class the girls, who have their towel fee paid up CHintJ take a nice soothing shower. wk Sk ll! The Indians are coming! Mistaken again, because it's only the girls prac- ticing archery. Junior and senior girls have been taught all the necessary rules and instructions beforehand. S 3 Y Because of an over crowded seventh hour gym class on Mondays and Wed- nesday Miss Catherine McClure and Mrs. Elizabeth Ollendorf had to re- arrange different schedules for the girls now in that class. i l THE WOODWARD TATTLER 1 Pat's Patter ..-........

Varsity Team, Coaches Dine At Storks's Nest How does the varsity football team and coaches spend their time when they have an open date in the schedule and donit have a game to prime for? Na- turally, they take life easy and go to the Stork's Nest Restuarant for steak din- ners, which is exactly what they did Wednesday evening as guests of the Woodward Athletic Board. Being able to put away their grid togs and show off their Sunday best and po- lished manners was quite a treat to the boys. Other guests of prestige who at- tended this gala event were Doctor Glow, the team doctor, Ted Szelagows- ki and Don Ziemke, lightweight coach- es, and Dave Harding, freshman coach. Red Cross Receives e Letters From Poland Senior Sketches INIRODUCING -2 ' Joan Sackman A quiet, intelligent irl, with a subtle persona1ity,hags brought fame to Wood- ward's portals through her singular a- chievment. Recently, she, along with fourteen other students from Wood- ward, participated ina state-wide hist- ory contest. Because of the multitude competing in this test, it was not ex- pected that a student fronr Woodward would be likely to represent Lucas County. This fact is brought out to em- phasize the far reaching value of J oan's conquest. Never known to shirk her responsibil- ities, Joan is recognized by her teachers and fellow students to be a very indus- trious worker. The honor bestowed upon her now has been well worked for. After graduation she plans to continue her studies at a business college of her choice. She laughingly admits she would like to be what is known as a career women, filling this position as an executiveubig-wig I A big wheel in oth- er wordsi. At present, she is content upon making her pin-money by work ing at Lamson's on Saturdays. In accordance with what has been pre viously mentioned, her main interest consists in books. fSee what reading can accomplish kids!l,'Besides that she finds pleasure in hiking, both of the lat- ter being healthy diversions. good for any young girl of seventeen birthdays. Climaxing her round of events will be her trip to the Ohio University at Athens, where she will compete in the final contest with winners of the other counties in Ohio. She will leave tonight for her destination, where she will spend the weekend, with her expenses all paid. The best of luck to you Joan. Weill keep our fingers doubly crossed. SECRETARIAL CLUB HOLDS MEETING On Thursday, October 23 the Secre- tarial Club of Woodward High School will hold their 2nd meeting the year. At this gathering Phillip Robinson, per- sonnel director of the Electric Auto Lite Corporation will speak on the sub- ject What the Business World Expects of a High School Graduate. Due to the fact that all the members of the Secretarial Club are to attend this meeting, it will be held in the school auditorium during a B sched- ule. Dorothy Miller, who is program chairman handled all the arrangements for the meeting. . .....-ll.. French Club To O Hold Initiation A t a n in fo r m al initiation and roast Wednesday, October 15, at Otta- wa Park the following students were initiated into the club, Glen Bollen, Shirley Brown, Jean Couturier, Hans Haselberger, Katherine Pappas, Arnold Pavlos, Jean Pratt. Elaine Taylor, Ray Turkington, Jack Perry, Ray Barker, Donna Hiles, William Loo, and Justine Dupre.' Chairman of the affair is Jean Taylor. All old members compose the various comrnittes. Society Hangs Pictures After an absence of five years, twelve oil paintaings have once more taken their place in the corridor directly outside the auditorium. These paintings were purchased over a 13 year period and have an estimated value of 231500 today. Although the Engineering Alumni Association pur- chased the first picture, the last 11 were purchased by the members of the Woodward Engineering Society. Countess Elizabeth Conrady, who was interested in the purchase of these pictures, asked to be allowed to choose pictures for the society to buy. The Countess picked the pic- tures and painted four of them her- self. - With the recent food saving proc- lamation made by President Truman before us, the following information, from letters received by Mrs. Mary O'Brien from Poland, telling of the arrival of Red Cross boxes should be of interest to everyone. The letters, which were signed by Helna Ziecinz, Bronislawa Marszalek, and Baran Janina, gave whole-heart- ed thanks to the teachers, directors and students who had sent the boxes filled with foodstuffs and clothing. One letter told of the extreme poverty and drought-which the nine- ty-five inhabitants of the village Wies Meszna Opocka faced. Two of the letters were written by teen-age girls, one fourteen, and the other sixteen. Each of the girls sadly described the school situation where they live. The fourteen year old girl has finished grade school, but fears very much that her educa- tion is at an end, because of the lack of money. Jane fsixteenj has been attending school but present circum- stances now force her to give it up. Just as each letter began-with a prayer of thanks for the help Amer- ican school children were sending, so each letter ended with the hope that these same friends would not forget them with the coming Christ- mas season. Articles that were sent in these boxes were powdered milk, eggs, meat. flour, and some butter. The Woodward box was sent through the ogggnization C.A.R.E. around June 9, Lasalle's to Sponsor Radio Talent Show Woodwardites, here's your chance to be on the radio. October 30 is the date for Woodward's first radio pro- gram for the 1947-48 series which begins October 23. This is the first time in Toledo that any program put on by high school students is to be sponsored. Each week a different high school puts on the program. Anybody who has a special talent and wants to par- ticipate may. Lasalle's auditorium, which is on the eighth floor, is the place from which the program is to be broad- cast. The time is from 4:30 to 4:45 and all students are invited to attend. The school with the largest repre- sentation will receive a prize. Dramatic effects and skits are writ- ten and done by the Radio Produc- tion classes of the school. The Radio Council at Warren school meets every Tuesday to discuss and plan these programs. Each school has two representativesg Woodward's are Pat Pawlak and Norman Tobey. Their committee here at school in- cludes Phil Hall, Jim Polites, Beth Marquardt and Joan Baker. Pat Pawlak is president of the Aeolian Club and Miss Helen Marie Griffin is advisor. . Junior Class Officers Cont'd from page 1 year were Mary Mahaley and Lucille Willard. Henry Wieczorek, Jack DeBord and Sue Ignatowicz clash in the duel for the position of reporter. This posi- tion is the only one where there are the same number of candidates this year as there were last year. Betty Best, Barbara Kubacki and Don Sam- son ran last year. Don came out on top. Ted Rokicki and Mel Sobecki are locking horns in the sergeant-at-arms race. Contenders for last year's race were Ralph Gardner, winner, Paul Miller and Hector Bolander. Twenty-three ran last year in com- petition with this year's eleven, which shows a definite lack of interest. The election will be held Tuesday morn- ing, October 21, in the first hour classes. ...

Although office records show that there has been a slight decrease in number, faculty members issued 429 unsats, Thursday, October 16. Thirty-eight members of the senior class received these warning signals. Twenty-four went to the boys and 14 to the girls, thus making it the smallest number to be received by any of the four classes. Juniors were given 1235 boys, 893 girls, 34. The sophomore class received the most which was 1365 boys, 79: girls, 36. The freshman class came in third after receiving a total of 1323 boys, 72, and girls, 60. Four hundred and twenty nine stud- ents got off on the wrong foot during the first five weeks of this school term. Students Preparing For Christmas Jobs ln preparation for the approaching Christmas shopping season, twenty- four Woodward students are enrolled in the Retail Merchants' training classes.

According to Mr. Sorton they use eight microphones and have their own engineer, which should be interesting to watch. Mr. Sorton and George Rohrer will attend the morning broadcast. Happy Birthday! Another year has made its exit, and Charles LaRue is one year younger. Starting on October 17, he will try to cut off another year in only 365 days. On behalf of the Tattler, and anyone associated with the paper, and on behalf of the entire stu- dent hody and the faculty, may we express our joy in wishing you a Happy Birthday, Pop, and may you keep on holding the reins till you are sweet sixteen again. STUDENTS TO AID CLUB WITH BOXES Once again under the leadership of Mrs. O'Brien the Junior Red Cross of Woodward High School is holding it's annual drive. This campaign consists of filling boxes for needy war torn coun- tries. Among the groups who have volun- teered to do this charitable work are the classes of Miss Katherine Tobin, 3 boxes Mrs. Marie Ersig, 3, Mrs. Dorthea Matheny, 4: Mrs. Hazel McManarnon, 23 Miss Blanche Hazleton, 35 Miss Camilla Savage, 23 Miss Ethel Kerlin, 33 Miss Mary Boyles, 23 Mrs. Bianca Russell, 1, and Mrs. Isla Van Vranken, 1. Doris Marks, sophomore student of Mrs.McManomon, has volunteered to fill a box herself. Each box must contain 3 pencils, 3 small pads of paper, cake of toilet soap, toothbrush, ball, and toothpaste or pow- der. Along with these articles one might add: crayons, a compass, needles, thread, thimble, pocket comb, and many other additional articles. Students are asked not to include: breakable items, liquids in glass containers, candy or gum, patriotic or religious symbols and toy- weapons. All boxes must be turned in by Oct- ob-er 29 so that Mrs. O'Brien may in- spect them. They will be taken to Mon- roe school and later will be sent to New York or San Francisco, depending upon whether they will be sent to Europe or the far East. Any clubs wishing to use-the win- dow curtains for dances in the girls' 5:53151 should contact Mrs. Lucile Far- re . ' Eugene Wilcox and Paul Vourdouris, and freshmen Richard Swartz and Bill Leddy, were among fifty members of the Boys' Club who were able to take a sight seeing tour to Washington,D. C., as guests of the fellows from the Boys' Clubs of Detroit, Seybogan, Pontiac, and Dearborn, Michigan. Ho- mer Hanham, former Woodward bas- ketball mentor and now director of the Toledo Boys, Club, accompanied the boys on this affair. The Toledo boys boarded a special train,already occupied by fellows from the respective Boys' Club of the afore- mentioned Michigan cities, at 2:45 p. m. Friday afternoon. Upon arriving in Washington at 9:30 the next morning, they were met by ten sight seeing bus- es. which first took them to view the Capitol. During the next two days the boys visited the Washington Monu- ment, the Lincoln Memorial, the Ford theater, the place of Lincoln assasina- tion, various foreign Embassys' the Pentagon, the largest office building in the world, Mount Vernon, the Navy Building, the Smithsonian Institution, and the young tourists also witnessed the elaborate, but solemn, manner of the changing of guards for the tomb of the Unknown Soldier. As for living quarters, the visitors stayed at the Annapolis Hotel, one of Washington's finest hotels, where they received the best of food and the ut- most of hospitality, not only there, but throughout the entire city. Much to the displeasure of the boy, they again boarded the special train. leaving Washington at 5:00 Sunday evening and arriving in Toledo about 2:00 p.m., Monday afternoon. Each boy had to pay ten dollars for the trip in order to help meet the cost of transportation, living quarter, and food When asked for a comment on the trip Eugene Wilcox replied' I liked the entire trip, especially visiting the Smith- sonian Institution. Paul Vourdouris cmment was, We really had a grand time and I'd like to go again next year. Richard Swartz's reply was, Everyone had a wonderful time. I especially en- joyed the ceremony at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier and also the good meals Bill Leddyis favorable words were, If they plan a trip of this type next year, Pd really like to attend it. It's really worth the money. Judging by these favorable comm- ents, the trip undoubtedly was a fine experience and educational event for all those attending. Woodward Plays Host November 11 at 1:30 p.m. in our school auditorium, Woodward plays host to Lake Township for its first Jun- ior Town Meeting of the air, for this year. The question to be discussed will be Should we return to O.P.A. to re- duce the high cost of living? Students who are interested in writing essays for participation in the program must have their scripts of, from 250 to 300 words,in at the Board of Education by November 6 at 1:00 p.m. Harry E. Lamb, director of radio ed- ucation in public high schools, acts as moderator of these weekly broadcast. Band To Accompany Team Many of you would like to attend out of town games. If the demand for tick- ets is great enough the Athletic Board will secure busses for all those inter- ested in attending, the Defiance foot- ball game on November 14. Tickets may be obtained from Arnold J. Brown. ' Band members will receive a special treat by being allowed to accompany the team to Defiance. THE WOODWARD TA'I'l'LER From the Desk . . . Editgrials N COMPLYING with the request of numerous students a new idea was tested in the senior elections this year. This suggestion promoted the holding of a class meeting at which the princi- ples of the elections were discussed and was con- cluded with the distribution of petitions for the various class offices. It is now possible for the re- sults of this meeting to be fairly analyzed and a conclusion drawn as to the success of the meeting. Our only means of measuring the success of this meeting is by comparison--comparison with the junior election. The junior class which did not holfl any meeting prior to the distribution of petitions, has eleven people competing for six offices while 32 seniors are competing for an equal number of offices in the senior class. The elections in the sen- ior class may well be labeled healthy. Whether the large number of candidates for senior positions is due entirely to this assembly cannot be said. But it is quite evident that this assembly did much to arouse enthusiasm among the seniors and convince many to take out petitions. In our opinion a meeting of classes before peti. tions are distributed should be added to the an- nual calender of the sophomore, junior, and senior classes. As in the senior class, this meeting would arouse the students of their respective classes and help advocate healthy elections. PIC SK ill NCE again the season of pumpkins, black cats: and ghosts has arrived. To many Halloween is a time of happy occasions to bring back pleasant memories, but there are some of us who recall nothing but destruction and ruin when we think of Halloween. Unfortunately for the rest of us who enjoy the celebration of Halloween as a time for social gath- erings, there are a few people who take pleasure in destroying property and damaging premises. This results in expense for the property owners and causes adults to consider the younger generation frivolous. Such things as ringing doorbells, tilting rubbish cans, and soaping windows are juvenile tricks which no high school student should spend his time doing. These tricks are far from amusing and are a source of anger and disgust to the public. Instead of annoying people, a pleasant Halloween could be spent at costume parties, roasts, and other events. These would provide fun without injuring people or property and would gain a better rep- utation for the young people.

THE WOODWARD TATTLER GRID PICKS By Sports Editor Waite's powerful Indians journeyed to Steubenville last week and ab- sorbed a 19-6 lacing at the hands of the Big Red which not only took your forecaster unawares but un- doubtedly most all of Toledo. This upset along with Central's drubbing, also at Steubenville, knocked over our dope bucket but Barberton, Can- ton McKinley and DeVilbiss won as predicted to give us three out of five, and an overall season's record of eight hits and four misses for a percentage of 67W-.. Read on and dis- cover this week's picksag ' Dk Libbey over Central-Both these teams lost by large margins to out- siders last week and naturally both are eager to regain winning ways with the Cowboys picked because of their large veteran line' and fast backfield. However, the Irish aerial attack could still function and an up- set would be possible if it did. Libbey by three touclldowlis. ,F DeVilbiss over Scott-This looks like a very close game with, in our opinion, the running of Fritz Lauffer and the all-around ability of Center Roger Wadsworth, who is especially clever at intercepting rival passes, to spell the difference between victory and defeat for the Bengals. On the other hand, the ball carrying assets of .lack Henning, Porter King and Dick Denman might also be the dif- ference. The ,Tigers by a touchdown. Pk Woodward vs. Waile--With the ln- dians seemingly in their worse fix of the season, it looks like an opportune moment for the Bears to spill the Waiters and this might be done if the Bruin line smears the Indians' backs and the Bear aerial game is clicking. Opening a few .holes for the Bear backs- wouldn't hurt either although Dick Steger frequently made his own holes against Libbey. Inspecting the Waite situation, we find that Bob Carson and Bob Dedo might not play much which would be a big break for Woodward, but the Bears seem to be in a similar position with Bob Aubry and Chuck White on the casualty list. While on the subject of bowling, Bar- bara Lamont bowled a high score of 160, but her name was not printed in the last weeks Tattler. We truly regret that this happened. ALIGHTWEIGHTS DEFEAT scorr Fon INITIAL LEAGUE VICTORY Breaking out of the T and single wing formation, the Polar Bear cubs rocketed to a 12-0 victory over a stubborn Scott crew. Woodward started slow, as they were unable to penetrate the Scott de- fense, but gained yardage on exchanges of kicks. The Cubs garnered their initial first down as Parks moved from the 50 yard stripe to Scott's 41 and Bieniek plowed to the 30. Except for this power, neither team could score nor bend the other team's impregnable defense in the first half. Thompson, for the Bruins, made some sensational tackles throwing potential Scott gains for losses. Bieniek Plunges For Score Early in the third canto Scott kicked to their own 25, from the end zone. On the first play Phillips cracked to the 24, on the second play Woodward bulldozed to the 125 on the third play the line opened up and the cubs rammed to the 2, from where Bieniek blasted over the goal. The kick was low and the score read 6-0 in favor the the Bears. Woodward Drives 45 Yards In the fourth quarter Scott took to the air in an effort to overcome Wood- ward's commanding lead, only to have a pass intercepted by Beans Bieniak on the 45 and run back to the 36. Bieniak dashed to the Bulldog's 31. On the next play the big powerful Bruin line again pushed the Collingwood boys back allowing Bieniak to pummel to the 28. Phillips moved the pigskin to the 20 on a quarterback sneak and the Bruins were again deep in the hostile territory. As the Scott defense tightened up to stop the line plays, Zasada took the ball on a hand-off and raced around left end for a score, taking a few Scott men with him on his back. led 12-0. The kick was blocked and Woodward After the ball had changed hands Woodward took it on their own 15 and moved to the 50 yard stripe in 3 plays, with Red Mohr doing some fancy runningbehind tremendous blocking by the line. Here on the fifty yard line time gave out and the Woodward Lightweights had won their first City- League game after 2 previous defeats, by a 12-0 score. Saviano and Wise looked good for the opposition but could do nothing against the powerful Woodward line, which showed finesse in every play. CINDER TEAM LOSES ALTHOUGH BUCHHOLZ AGAIN TAKES FIRST Although Dick Buchholz again took top honors, winning by the time of 10.46, the Hear cinder crew suffered its third consecutive defeat Wednes- day by a 31-24 count. Scott's crew grabbed the next three places. About the time, 11:30, Put Put Houghtaling came in to take the fifth spot. Placing for seventh, eighth and tenth places were Ken Eble, Bob Puls and Bob Rutkowski. The victors took sixth and ninth spots, bringing in a 31 count to beat the Bears' 24. High bowlers this week are Rita Pin- ski with a score of 165 and Pat Becker, scoring 155. Rita and Pat are on the Michery Mates team. TWO BEAR HARRIERS HONORED IN THE DISTRICT RUN Falling behind in finishing stretch of the district cross conutry meet last Sat- urday, Dick Bucholz finished a close second to the long winded harrier of Mansfield to lead the Polar Bears to sixth spot out of a field of 12 entries. Finishinf second, Dick garnered gold fod that was awarded the top ten run- ners. Ed Houghtaling ran second for the Bears and finished 13th in the meet to receive a silver medal for being in the second 10. I Toledo schools demonstrated their superiority in the long distance run, occupying six of the seven top places. Behind first place Mansfield they finish- ed as follows: Waite, Scott, Libbey, Central, Woodward, and DeVilbiss. First of the after school tournaments began Thursday. Soccer baseball is the game played and members of the Girls' Leaders Club will referee the games. FORMER LIBBEY LAD ENTERS SPORTLIGHT Bob Schiehsl now steps forward into our Tattler Sportlight. Bob, who hailed from Libbey last year, held the position of captain of W. H. S. football team last week when the Bears played said school. When asked how he felt playing against his former school mates, Bob replied, I felt good but I don't think the Libbey team liked me too well. To get down to the bare facts Bob resides at 957 Curtiss Street, stands a little over 6 feet tall Cwe proved ith weighs 185 pounds, has brown hair and brown eyes. Weight lifting and wrestling at the Y. M. C. A. fill his spare hours II decided not to use the word hobby Boblw Shyly? Mr. Schiehsl told me he had no girlfriend, but thanks to Bob Thayer, who was, iI'm quite sure he still is ja good friend we can print the following name in this interview in connection with Bob's heart Betty Barber. fPlug! he sort of wishes he had one of those bee-ut-a-ful sen- ior pictures.i In the cafeteria Bob is greeted with Milkman keep those bottles quiet every lunch period. Simple explanation he sells milk. His best customer, and fa- vorite teacher is Mrs. Hella Anderson. Or haven't you nocticed how Bob obe- diently? sets aside cow juice every day for her.

VIKLSZQQ Sl-IVKTS Someone is in for a gala time Satur- day night. Girls' Leaders Clubiis having a roast at Pearson Park. There are fonr- teen couples going, including Miss Mc- Clure and Mrs. Ollendorf. Joan Luka- siewicz is chairmen of the roast. BRUI , I Almost equally hampered by injuries, Waite's mighty In- dians and Woodward's scrappy Polar Bears hook up tonight in a game which both clubs are striving to hit the comeback trail. In the absence of fleet-footed Bob Carson and veteran End Bob Dedo, the East Siders were stopped for the first time last Friday by the Big Red of Steubenville, and now, with the status of Carson and Dedo still doubtful, the Indians will aff tempt to climb back on the vic- tory wagon at the expense of the Blue and White, who have suf- fered four consecutive league re- versals since their opening win over Lima Central. Aubry, White May Not Start Halfbaeks Bob Aubry and Charles White are both dubious starters t o n i g h t although White's ankle should be ready by now if it has responded to DIANS MIX AT WAITE TO IGHT treatments. However, Aubry's knee ailment was more serious and cmight bother the hard run- ning 175 pounder if he is able to play. Replacement for these boys probably would be Ray Barker and Ted Rokicki with Fred Henzler also fitting into Coach Vorderburg's plans. Plunging Fullback Dick Steger along with reliable Ed Lair at quarterback will probably be the only sure starters in the back- field. Bear Line Looks Intact Right tackle Duane Tigges' condition still seems to be a little doubtful and if he is not able to play, Don Reaume is ex- pected to occupy the position as he has done in recent games. The opposite tackle looks set with husky Bob Schiehsl, recov- ered from a broken wrist, in there. Lanky Jack Smith, a good pass receiver, will start at right end with either Ralph Gardner or Chuck Golden play- ing at the left wing. Both guards seem pretty well fixed as Dick Ubl will start at right guard and either Soupy Sab- baugh or Royal Wagner should solidify the left guard spot. Jun- ior Norm Crawford will again hold down the pivot post as he is the only center due to the ab- sence of Steger at that position. Capable reserves include End Bob Jones, Tackles Andy Nowak and Wally Nowicki, Guard Jim Matthews, and backs Ed Zawis- towski, Vince Gallon and Paul Miller. Waiters Still Look Tough Despite their undefeated rec- ord gone by the boards, the East Siders remain a potent scoring machine with Bill Martin, Joe Kovesdi and Lyle Myrice all powerful backs who can take up the slack left by Carson if he should not play. Steve Katich, Carson's sub, is a good back who is particularly adept at sweep- ing the ends. Dedo's wing spot on the line will be held down by Dan See- mann if the first-string end's shoulder is not sufficiently healed. On the other end will be Guido Tambur, all-city candi- date, while the tackle spots will be manned by Dick Hamrick and Tom Bumbera. Situated on either side of center are big George Antoine and Momany with John Wagoner anchoring the Waite forward wall. , City League Standings W. L.

With the junior and senior elec- tions over everybody is looking for- ward to the sophomore elections. Pe- titions will be issued Mxonday. One varsity football player thattis no longer unattached is Eddie Zawis- towski. I know 'cause I saw him walking down the hall hand in hand with Rose Maarie Edunyezyk. To help them understand more clearly the United Nations, the American History classes of Miss Bertha Vermilya are studying the UN and all its, activities.

PK Pk Two rooms omitted from the list of those that took Red'Cross Boxes were Mrs. Ruth Lloyd's and Miss Camilla Savage's rooms. Hope this makes up 'for our mistake. PF iii it Much to the amazement of all, Dick Ubl was actually dancing last Friday at the canteen. Incidentally, the boys on the football squad were all invited to the surprise birthday party given Dick by his mother last Sunday. PF lk ik Since a few of Mrs. Kellermeier's boys attended the trip to Washington with the Boys' Club, the discussion period last Tuesday was used to give talks about this trip. ik . Among much laughter and con- fusion last Tuesday during the as- sembly dance stood Beans Bieniek bravely clutching a girl's purse. Boy, was his face red? What's the ex- planation, Beaans'l? X In previous years the advanced chemistry classes were mostly boys, Charles Staneart reports that this year the class is pretty evenly di- vided. ils Pla :lf Tattler names aren't supposed to be mentioned, but Doris Basilius just received a beautiful diamond from her man, Bill Blowers. Congratula- tions, Doris X Y ' - vt Visiting old friends and teachers last week were Mr. and Mrs. fLina DeHayJ David Gribbin and their little girl, Cathy Jo. It was really pleasant to see them again. A variety of live stock has been acquired for the biology classes of Miss Catherine Tobin. F . :le : Frank McLeary, Toledo's weather- man, will have competition if he doesn't watch his p's and q's. Lincoln Clark's science classes are going to study the weather maps and weather observations. NOW YOU'VE Doiisifr JUNIOIRSJIMIIIJKWI-I RICHARD PERRY Well, if you like your men dominant' you're jealous of Joan Mattes. Yep' that's what Dick Perry is. He served last year as President of the sophomore class and now is President of the jun- ior class. After dragging him reluctant- ly?from his French class, we got down to the bare facts. First, he hangs his coat at 935 Bricker. and answers wrong numbers at Po.5497. From February 22, 1931, till now, he has acquired some habitsg some good, some bad. Among the good are sleeping and eating, the bad is working. When he isn't doing his homework for French, Alge- bra, English, Chemistry or History classes, he's probably talking to his many buddies, Lawrence Bankowski, Ted Rokieki, Tom Papps, Kenneth Lemke, Don Parker, only to mention a few. He plans to go to T. U. for a while after graduation to get a basis for Chemical Engineering. After his educa- tion at Toledo University his future is indeinite. After I asked him if he liked to dance he waltzed around the hall a few times until I stepped on his toe and he ans- wered Yes. His favorite band is Stan Kenton 'plug for Bankowskil and Mr. Rohrer ranks high on his list of tea chers. He has greenish-Bluish-Br'ow- nish eyes. K If you don't believe me take alook, and he has brown hair.'i Now he's getting tired of da n c i n g with me so-so long Dick, and as a mem- ber of the junior class I know you'll be the finest president we ever had. THOMAS PAPPS A great comic an intelligent debater fills the post as 'this year's junior class vice-president. Tom Papps is the gentle man in discussion. As everyone has probably discovered, Tom is loaded with personality. In fact he is so loaded he is considered a big gun. He is the best looking, most talented, thrilling and engaging young man in Woodward. I know because he told me so. He is quite an amor'rnous fellow, di- viding his interest between women and cutting out paper dolls during his spare time. Commonly called Cousin Tom, this name for Tommy has a story be- hind it. He is a friendly sort, of achap, so 'when Snoz claimed him as her first cousin, he let Tessie be his second couis, and now I rate as his third cousin. That makes us one happy family in the Tattler Office and lends to harmony? He plans upon continuing his educa- tion at Ohio State University, where he will major in law. If I know Tom, he will be a whiz at this, because he is al- ways in an argument disputing some fact, and trying to prove his point. Used wisely, these certainly are char- acteristics that will be an asset to him. Tom served on the program commit- tee last year, which will enable him to know his duties as program chairman. He also is a member of the Latin club and a ready and willing, hard worker on the Tatter Staff. Among his artistic abilities, master of the 88 keys, plays the Hawaiian guitar, and has been shav- ing for two years. He cut himself both times. He asked me to mention that he is buddy-buddy with Dick Perry, Don Parker, and Don Bauman. Tom told me they all went to the same nursery. NAVY TO SPONSOR TRAINING PROGRAM Our Navy recently announced that the second nation-wide competative ex- amination for its College Training Pro- gram has been scheduled for December 13 l947, and will be open to all male high sehoolseniors, or graduates, who are between the ages of 17 and 2l,and a citizen of the U.

Upon graduation they may apply for retention in the Regular Navy or Marine Corps, or trans- fer to the Reserve and return to civilian life. Anyone interested please see Miss Ethel Kerlin 224. M-,ml..ii Edgar Sorton Sports New Hat If you, too, have been wondering why a certain handful of students were humming the familiar tune, Where Did You Get That Hat, we now take the space to explain the reason for the outburst of song. Last Thursday, for the first time, Edgar Sorton wore his new hat to school. After much thought and concentration, a light tan, Lee Hat was chosen. Mr. Sorton was entitled to this purchase because his first hour class came out on the top of the heap, with the highest per capita per person, during the magazine dr'ive. Although the agreement stated that any hat, even if it should be a 560 one, could be pur- chased, Mr. Sorton payed close to S13 for his new chapeau. Mighty' becoming, Edgar! NEW TROPHY CASES DISPLAY AWARDS Two new trophy cases are now in the halls of Woodward. These are to dis- play the various awards, which the dif- ferent athletic teams have won and which to this day, have been kept in the main office because of the lack of space. S.B. Crouse's classes did the carpen- try work and Lee Rynder's classes did the electrical work. Charles C. LaRue, principal had hoped to have these cabinets in the halls before graduation last June. Glee Club Announces Plans For Coming Yearis Activities One of Woodward's busiest teach- ers is Edgar Sorton. Mr. Sorton is filled by the band, 'special chorus and glee club, all of which are active organizations. At this time the band is learning the difficult precision drill. This will be performed at Defiance, the only out of town game the band will at- tend. WoodWard's special chorus is being kept busy planning their dance, which will take place November 7. Harvest Rhythm is the title of this event and Paul Kurth will furnish the music. Chairman is Virginia Weis who, aided by her committees, will handle the business details. Another gala affair being planned is the Sadie Hawkins Day dance. This is scheduled for November 14 and is sponsored by the glee club. Credit should be given to Mr. Sorton and the officers of these groups for their interest in the school activities and their efforts in keeping them active. SUPPLIES ON SALE Wilson Weis, who has charge of the station er's desk on the second floor before school, would like to encourage more students to buy their school sup- plies there. Since a complete line of supplies are carried, it saves all stu- dents a lot of time and bother to buy their supplies before school. Girls from Mr. Weis' classes who help him handle the sales are Doris Basilius, and Nancy Hansen. The desk opens at 8:45 a.m. and closes at 9:00 sharp.

Lasalle's auditorium on the eighth floor will be the scene of this program. The theme will be Halloween. Talent will consist of Fadwa Mickol singing t'Star Dust, Raymond Haddad playing the Minute Waltz, and Elsie Rutkai playing an accordian number, park Avenue Fantasy A Woodward quartet consisting of Mike Zydel, John Sexton, Jack Munger, and Ronald Brennamon, will sing the Woodward Field Song. The narrator was Phil Hall, and the owl's part will be played by Sam Weanes. Supporting cast consisted of radio students from the third, fifth, and sixth hours Radio Production classes of Mis s Helen Marie Griffin. Bunting Discusses American Problems At a press conference at the Commo- dore Perry Hotel on Vfednesday, Octo- ber 22, representitives from several high schools, both public and parochial, in- terviewed Carl Bunting, who is pres- ident of the National Association of Manufacturers. The N. A. M. is com- posed of some 40,000 firms which firmly believe -in the objective of the N. A. M. This objective is to recover America's faith in its own destiny by restoring the belief of all the people in the individual enterprise system and its vital free- doms'. Although the' name of this associa- tion indicates a probable interest for the good of the capitalist, the N.A.M, in whole heartedly behind the ordinary working man. Among the advocates of of the N.A.M. are: high wages based on high productivity, and safe working conditions. ' Outside of explaning the functions of his association, MrLBunting also dis, cussed a few of the prodlems which cauae the major worries of the Amer- ican public. He stated the Americans are worried mainly adout three prod- lems today These areg high cost of living, possible depression, and the possiblilty of a war with Russia. It was Mr. Bunting opinion that these problems are closely related. He pointed out the fact a serions depression results only after a high rise in the cost of living. A depression would make the U. S. very vulnerable for the Communists of Russia to establish their views in America. Mr. Bunting said he did not think Russia would declare a state of war between Russia and the U. S. but merely continue to carry on the idealogic war which has existed between the two countries for the past several years. From tnis we find the U. S. has only one serious problem. That being the high cost of living. To d e f e a t Russia we merely need more faith that ever in the American System. Woodward was represented at this con- ference by Dick Dressel. As this week draws to a close,l advisors pack up their ballot boxes for another year. The purpose of this column is to recognize and con- gratulate the winning candidates, and the runner-ups. 44 PF PF Members of the senior class held their final election Friday, October 24, in all first hour classes. All the candidates elected, with the exception of one, are boys. Robert Aubry edged Ray Varner out in the race for the presidency of the graduating class. Marion Antonini won over two femi- nine candidates for the office of vice- president. We hope Bob Aubry has a strong knee or Ernie Simpson, sec- retary, may have to equip himself with a chair when he takes notes at class and cabinet meetings. Fred Henzler will balance the books of the class, since he now fills the office of treasurer. The one and only girl on the cabinet is reporter, Delores Roz- noski. In the race for sergeant-at- arms, Jack Munger came through on top. The only committee announced by the junior cabinet 'so far, for this year, is the ring committee. Chair- man is Edward Zaskin. Working with him are Ruth Cobb, Harry Collum, Joanne Konop, Kenneth Lemke, and Dorothy Steverls. ! V Just like all politicians offer some- thing in return for your vote, Bob Aubry offered to kiss all babies fno age specifiedb and Gene Snyder agreed to give all seniors Friday's off. fWonder if Pop knew this?j ' Fil all Probably the most expensive cam- paigning of the season was that of Irene Nakos, candidate for senior class treasurer. Last Wednesday the ambitious managers of Irene passed in and out of the dancers at the before 'school dance and distributed candy suckers. The slogan attached to these read Don't be a sucker. Sweet, isn't it? ali 211 PK Another name for Bob Jones could easily be Little Lulu, since his cam- paign notices consisted of a small picture of Little Lulu and a. card saying Don't be a Lulu, vote for Bob Jones. Another idea was added to the sen- ior campaign by Shirley Foxe who purchasedsballoons which had painted on them Vote for Shirley Foxe, via a bottle of nail polish. ali 9? The sophomore election will be held sometime next week. A meeting will take place before the elections so as to introduce thse candidates. PF Pls Students taking out petitions for the sophomore offices are as follows: President, Barney Jesiononski, and Don Wujciakg vice-president, Jean Couturier, Mary Ann DeBord, Joyce Drudzinski, Mike Gusses, and Sally Stegerg treasurer, Catherine Meek, Dorothy Piotrowski, Adeb Sadd, and Dick Skaffg reporter, Sally Dickey, Evelyn Magdus, Pearl Williams, and Margie Young, and sergeant-at-arms, Seymour Eget and Lehr Whitney. if Sli :li Members of the junior cabinet have been meeting every morning for the past week to discuss the committees to be had this iyears. PF An attractive poster hanging from the wall in the cafeteria which says You've seen the rest, now vote for the best! belongs to Don Wujciak, who is running for sophomore presi- dent. all P14 lk Another cute idea for campaigning was thought up by Lillian Nickols who put her poster on her locker. iii 14 lk Did you ever see a cabinet walk- ing? You did if you paid any atten- tion to the 8 by 10 inch white cards with who for what neatly printed on them that most students were wearing. Some displayed a card for the candidate of their choice for each office. Pk Pl! Plf Skirts are getting longer these days. One of the reasons could be that girls pinned all sorts of cam- paign materialk togtheir hems. No, your eyesight i'sn't failing you. Those were walking bill-boards you saw. Gene Snyder, Dolores Roznoski, and Rita. Palicki depended upon cam- paigning of this type to get your votes. ANNNUAL FACULTY PARTY Nov. 5 Each year the teachers of Wood- ward High School hold an evening of entertainment at which they Welcome newcomers and present gifts to those who have retired. This year's gala event will take place Wednesday, November 5, at 6:00 P.M. Fort Meigs Shelter House will be the scene of the gaiety. Guests will include Mr. and Mrs. Charles C. LaRue, Mr. and Mrs. James Pollock, Mr. and Mrs. Jack Taylor, Miss Louise Tippett, Miss Annie Wetterman, Mr. and Mrs. Car- roll Lyman, Mrs. Isla Van Vranken, Mr. and Mrs. Merle Ollendorf, and Mr. and Mrs. Virgil Sloan. Committees Announced In order to make this affair a success all teachers are asked to combine their efforts and serve on the various committees. Com- prising the gift committee arc: Mrs. Dorothy Matheny, Mrs. Marie Ersig. Miss Catherine McClure, Miss Edith Murphy, Miss Edna McLaughlin, Mrs. Bianca Russell, Miss Bertha Vermilya, Mrs. Mary O'Bi-is-n, and Mrs. Mary Crouse. Invitations are being taken care of by Mrs. Hazel McManamon.

For what? Why to sponsor a dance of course. Who will be next? Woodward's Special Ghorus, under the direction of Edgar Sorton, is planning the second dance of this year, for November 7 from 8:00 to 11:00 p.m. All the plans for the Harvest Rythm will be handled by Virginia Wiess, chairman, and the following committeesg Decorations, Wanda Zientekg tickets, Nanette Forang checking, Phyllis Losekg'Posters, Mary Ann Lewandowskig inivitations, Sally Snellbaker. Paul Kurth's band has been obtained and the price of admission will be 55 cents. A Joyce Poole is president of the Girls Special Chorus. Varsity Sells Pins I Using their salesmanship to get the students to buy the Woodward Polar Bear pins, the members of the varsity football team, managers, and the Stu- dent Council are selling pins. The mo- ney from these pins will be put into a fund to be used for the varsity football squad's annual banquet. If you bought a pin, you helped the fund grow! OHIO TEACHERS TO MEET Raymond K. Sheline- Commemorating its seventy-fifth anniversary, the Northwestern Ohio Education Association and the Uni- versity of Toledo, will hold its annual meeting tomorrow. Since all the teachers cannot be accommodated for the morning ses- sion by either the Civic Auditorium or the Macomber Auditorium they will have their choice as to which meeting they would like to attend. The same speakers will be used for both of the assemblies but they are scheduled to speak at different times. The afternoon session will be con- ducted in the same way. Raymond K. Sheline is the only Woodward teacher serving on a com- mittee this year. - There will be no program on Thursday evening as in former years, but there will be a musical on Friday evening instead. Music will be pro- vided by the Bowling Greene State University A Capella Choir under the direction of Dr. James Paul Kennedy. An interesting fact to note is that Woodward High School has paid in more membership dues than any oth- er school in the city of Toledo. Three quarters of a century ago, the curriculum in our schools was especially meager when compared with the enriched procedure of today. The high school, as such, was prac- tically nonexistent. The salary of teachers ranged from 3315 to S25 per month, and except in the larger cities and villages, pupils were taught in one-room and two-room schools, in which the teachers often met as many as thirty or thirty-five classes each day. The student who today spans the past three quarters of a century mar- vels at the changes that have taken place in the social, economic and educational life in our area. CLUB SELLS FLOWERS In order to obtain funds to fill Christmas boxes, the Red Cross of Woodward sold blue and white chrys- anthemums Friday, October. 24. Girls who sold these fiowers during first and second hours were: Alice Cum- mins, Joyce VanBorg, Gretchen Togwp, Dorothy Davis, Virginia Dorn, ue Burchett, and Mary Jane Addison. When an emergency call came to Woodward to make 100 menu covers for the Navy, to be used at Christ- mas time, Mrs. Phyllis Lentz gladly accepted the assignment. The menu covers will be made by her beginning art classes. Leo Robie should also receive re- cognition for translating the letters which came from Polish children. These letters, -which were sent to the Red Cross, gave thanks for the C.A.R.E. boxes of last spring. THE WOODWARD TATTLER SPIRITS ARE SEEKI G YOU'?? From the Desk . . . Edliutgrials gg THINK my candidate is the best, I think you should vote for my candidatej, these were the words of the campaign managers at the Senior assembly at which the student sponsor introduced and campaigned for his or her respective candidate. You will notice that the word think is most prominently mentioned in their speeches. No one used the words I know. If the campaign manager doesn't know, who should? On the other hand if the candidate himself pre- sented and delivered his own campaign program,the voter would have the opportunity to form his own opinion, not that of the sponsor, as to the character and leadership ability of the person running for off- ice. There is the opinion that the canidate delivering his speech in the first person singular tense would form the opinion of self-conceit on the voter's mind. This is not so. A candidate can present his speech without self praise and conceit. He can state his qualifications Without being accused of inflating his ego. Stating the truth can scarcely be called self exaltation. Let's hope that in the future, election programs will include a campaign speech delivered by the canidates themselves. This will form an impression of the candidate on the voter's mind and result in better elections. ITH winter approaching, the need for food from abroad will be greatly in C r e a s e d through out Asia and Europe. What meager crops people of these continents did raise will now be stopped for the remainder of the winter months. They will rely on quantities of food from the United States and others countries for their livelyhood. Whether or not the United States can afford to ship food abroad is determined on the home front. While we produce great quantities of foodstuffs we also have a reputation for being the most wasteful country in the world. This wasteful policy of the Americans does not coincide with the present times. What the Americans waste each day could bring relief to many starving Europeans. Here in school, students waste large quantities of food each day. Many of you bring lunches larger than you can comfortably eat. The result? you throw sandwiches, etc. away. The food wasted each day at Woodward could relieve the hunger of quite a few Europeans. When President Truman asks you to save food, he doesn't want you to eat less but merely to save more. Don't prepare larger quantities of food than you can eat. Europeans are starving. Its up to us to relieve this situation. You can do your share by starting to save food right here in school. OBLIN'S OBBLE Tomorrow is Halloween a time of gaiety, and pranks, when kids fthis means youu play in make- believe at being witches, ghosts, and fairies. a day of masquerading by dressing up in old clothes or putting on disguises. Halloween time is even tempting to some of the grown men and women, who also dress in carnival costumes and recollect thoughts of their childhood days. For these reasons we are dedicating this weeks feature page to HALLOWEEN. With a touch of supernatural thrown in for good measure, let's hop on a broom stick and fiy through the halls to see what kind of Halloween spirit Woodward has. Ugh, what just flew past us? Oh! my gosh!!! It's Irene Stasiak dressed in a witche's costume, gliding along with a broom stick. Beware Woodwardites! The goblins will get you if you donlt watch out. Many leering witches and ghosts are scheming to scare anybody they can. So I repeat BEWARE! Look what's haunting in the best of style! It's Elizabeth Kaspersak anb Danny Kosinski scaring everyone out of his gray sheets Born during the ghostly week in around the year 29 or 30 were Ralph Gardner, Chuck Samson, and Emily Rucinski. But the real McCoy Halloween baby is Barbara Nodine who celebrates her's on this day. Every year she invites her fellow mates, goblins, witches, and spirits. They have a- ghostly of a time celebrating. At the mention of Bill Bolander's name, -many Woodward femmes turn pale as ghosts, explaining some of those spirits that we see. Here's a helping hint for the neighbors who live around the Wisniewski house. Jane and her friends will spend Halloween night by playing Tick-Tick fl hope yon know what this is.l They also proved to be very masculine in moving house steps. Mel Groszewski has his Halloween fun by scar- ing the wits out of girls, while last year, Joyce Young's pranks ended up with the cops chasing her mob. So sheys going to refrain from playing pranks this year. What have we here -- Don Cukierski and Rita Burford floating around in their own private pump- kin. fMust be love?y Look at Lois Schiel bewitching Mel Sobecki! I wonder what Lucille Antoszewski and Mary Jane Pachola are going to do with those two tin cans filled with water and tied with a string right in the center? Be careful girls, the trick might back fire. Be sure to have some food on hand because when you answer your door tomorrow night you proba- bly will hear this: - We are the beggers of the street, Do we starve or do we eat? Won't you please give us a bite to eat? Suzie Marok sure was in the Halloween spirit. She walked through the halls with a little kitten up- on her shoulder. Damp, dismal, and rain. These are the thoughts of Halloween remembered by many. Here's another Halloween poem - - - When the night is dark and scary, And the black cats jump over the moon - - - And when there is nobody near you, Then all the ghosts croon - - - When the witches ride the broom-sticks And yo'knees knock in fear And when you get scared like I am Then you'll know Halloween is here! We come to the end of our broom-stick trip hoped you pulled through it without being scared to death? Watch out for those skeletons and ghosts, etc.'tomorrow night. Have a ghostly Halloween Day.

Ghostville i As the hour strikes midnight in the small town of Ghostville a shadowy figure lurks near Goblin Street. It is none other than Krazy Kat Kolacki lTessiey searching for her next victims. Three inno- cent? spooks trod happily down the street their naive minds intent to play. They are: Goofy Ghould Gravius fBillb,Pumpkin Pietrowski fDorothyQ, and Poor Pranks Pawlak' Path. Closer and closer creeps Krazy Kat planning his attack. Suddenly Kolacki strikes! A terrific struggle takes place. First one side then the other gains the advantage. Finally the brave police force in the persons of: Haunting Hassenluburger QI-Iansj, Mo- ronic Munger fJackJ, and Vicious Vincent fBobJ, bring order to Ghostville and the city returns to a normal Ccrash, bang, ping,l Halloween. Prankster's Holiday As the dark blanket of evening settles o'er the city, When the jolly laughter of children has come to cease, 1 Older folk sit and wait with pity For the time of the inevitable showdown with peace. They realize that behind every bush and tree, Lurks a keen witted youngster ready with a scream, Filled with plans sardonic glee, Ready to celebrate the prankster's holiday, Hallo- Ween. After your nerves are completely worn, You picture these desperadoes of the dark, And curse the day they were born. Wgasily, these workers of the night trudge home to 9 , To receive the fond caresses of mother's and dads, Little do they know what evil lurks in his hand, While they praise the of innocence of their little lad. Elmer Vorderburg We used to take the neighborhood wagon apart and disposed the parts on thevictims barn. And we also turned the chicken house. George Rohrer I was a bad little boy! Besides ringing door bells and throwing corn in the people's faces, my friends and I thought about burning down the neighbors barn. But we never quite got around to doing it. THE WOODWRAD TATTLER GRID PICKS By Sports Editor After the trouncing that- Scott ad- ministered to DeVilbiss, all so-called proguosticators who took DeVilbis's should close shop. However, Libbey beat Central to give us an even split :ind at record of nine out of 14 for the reason and a percentage of 6475. With an eye toward improving our percentage, we give you this wcek's picks. I ak K Waite over Chillicothe--It doesn't take much masterminding to select the winner of this tilt as the Indians are out to regain prestige after the Steubenville lacing and probably will roll up the points. Wa1te's prestige is not espesially high now as Canton McKinley did a 48-6 job on the Big Red of Steubenville last week. Hard to tell the margin of victory. 51 rt Detroit Central over Central--Cen- tral has been responsible for two wrong predictions of the desk thus far-winning against a favored Tiger team, and losing against a weak Steubenville Central ball club. .We don't think the lrish will cross us this time as the Detroit boys have a peculiar habit of winning which. has carried them to many city titles. Detroit by twg tolichcslowns. Libbey over Hamilton-Out on a limb we go, as Hamilton rates high in state rankings. However, Hamil- ton can be taken as demonstrated by Springfield to the tune of 19-0, and we look for the Cowboys to try hard to make up prestige lost in the Bar- berton affair. ak 96 ak DeVilbiss over Sandusky-Although not any too certain about this one, we cast a vote for the Tigers in the belief that they will be able to come back after the Scott massacre. The Tigers by a touchcxlowg. HF Woodward vs. Scott-There isn't any doubt in my mind that the Bears have the stuff to upset the Bulldogs if they put it out. The Bruin line easily outclassed the Waite forward wall in the first half and the Indian line can match any in the city league. The Woodward backs also looked good with the aerials of Chuck White and Bob Aubry finding consistently, while Eddie ed operations nicely and did some good running. sell the Bulldogs short. their mark Lair direct- Dick Steger But don't BUCHHOLZ LEADS PACK IN INITIAL BRUIN WIN Captain Dick Buchholz, running the two mile course in the amazing time- of 10:29, again romped home in first place as the Polar Bear cross coun- try crew copped their initial league victory at the expense of the DeVil- biss Tigers, 25-41. N Woodward's harriers held the con- trolling hand throughout as the Tigers were able to garner only three places from the top eleven spots, finishing in the second, fourth, and fifth positions. For the Blue and White, Ken Eble walked off with third place followed by two DeVilbiss runners. The deciding factor of the meet came when six Bruin distance men, Ed Houghtaling, Bob Puls, Chuck Samson, Don Samson, Bob Rutkowski, and Ernie Simpson, crossed the finish line in that order, grabbing the laurels from the sixth through the eleventh spots. Though Buchholz has taken first place in every city league contest for the Bears, they still have only a mediocre record of one win and three setbacks. The Bruin thinclads end their sea- son next week against a powerful Waite squad. The roast scheduled for last week Saturday was canceled because of lack of transportation. Members of the Girls' Leaders Club were giving the roast. WOODWARD BATTLES BULLDOGS TOMORROW AT SCOTT STADIUM Out to redeem themselves for the first round defeat, 37-7, handed them, the Bears will en- gage a fast improving squad in the Bulldogs of Scott. Both squads will be at top condi- tion when the schools clash tomorrow night at the Collingwood Horseshoe. Heads up ball will be required of the Bruins to cool down the fast stepping Bulldogs who soundly beat DeVi1biss last week 38 to 7, while Woodward, who dominated the first half of play at Waite, was beaten 41 to 9. Bears Still Have Injuries Should Bob Aubry's leg heal com- pletely for tomorrow night's encoun- ter, Scott's forward wall will have all they can do to 'stop the hard driving tail back, who has been slowed up in the past two games because of his hurt. Bob will be combined with powerful Dick Steger at fullback, Chuck White at wingback, and Ed Lair who will be at the quarter slot. The Bears' line will be ready to match the huskies of Scott, going into the game with all first string- ers in fair shape. Royal Wagner and Dick Ubi will be at the guard posts to stop the line bucks of Tom Duhigg and Jack Henning. Bob ' Schiehsl and Duane Tigges are slated l for left and right tackle spots, re- i spectively, to halt the strong off i tackle thrusts that Scott has found very successful. Manning the end positions will probably be Ralph Gardner and Chuck Golden, both good defensive men, who are. capable of stopping the fast end sweeps of the Bulldogs' Porter King. E1ther.Soupy Sabbaugh or Norm Crawford will hold down the pivot post, depending on whether Crawford's arm injury is sufficiently healed. Bulldogs Have Title Hopes Coach Al Sacksteder will throw a beefy forward-wall the Bruins with Cliff Kaighin and Robert Shay to start at endsg Willys Kimmones and Ray Beach at tacklesg Allen and Ringle at guardsg and alert Chet Krolak at center. This tilt stacks up as an important affair for both the Bulldogs. and the Bears with the Collingwood boys trying for their fourthdeague victory in order to stay close to loop-leading Waite, and the Strelcher Street crew expected to go all out in a spirited bid for their first league victory. INSPIRED BEARS PUSH WAITE AROUND BEFORE SUCCUMBING IN SECOND HALF For nearly the entire first half last Friday, Woodward's hard- fighting Polar Bears, fiashily dressed in their new white uniforms, not only held the strong Waite machine scoreless but built up a 9-0 margin and were heading for another tally with but approxi- mately two minutes left before the intermission. Kovesdi Saves The Indians Then, Joe Kovesdi provided the turning point of the game when he intercepted a short aerial by Aubry on the Waite 5 and raced 95 yards down the sidelines for a score. Carson converted and the score was 9-7. With but 30 seconds left the Indians got the ball again when an Aubry punt was blocked and recovered by the Indians on the Woodward 31. Time for only one play remained but that play was a touchdown pass from Lyle Myrice to Bill Martin, who eluded three over-anxious Bear tacklers and scored to make it 13-9 at the half. It was that same elusive and hard running Martin who broke loose for some 90 yards on the second half kick off and tallied to all but sew up the game for the East Siders. Carson again converted. Waite scored three more times that quarter with Katich plunging for one, Kovesdi tossing to Tambur for a touchdown, and Martin getting his third tally of the night from 4 yards out. Late in the initial canto, the Bruins started on a long march into Indian territory with Chuck White passing to Bob Aubry for a 43 yard gain and a first down on Waite's 11. On fourth down, the Bears were on the 3 but White was stopped just short of a first on the 2. The quarter ended and at the start of the second canto, Martin went back to punt. However, Guard Geforge Sabbaugh broke through and blocked the kick for an automatic sa ety. Waite kicked off from the 20 and Aubry punted when the Bears failed to advance. With the Bear line rushing furiously, the East Siders could not make yardage and finally Waite fumbled with Dick Ubl recovering for Woodward on the Waite 9. An Aubry toss was intercepted by Kovesdi who ran for a score but the play was called back and the Indians were penalized to the 1 for holding. Aubry then scored standing up on a handoff. White's extra point kick was good. The definite superiority of the Bears up until the Waite touchdowns was demonstrated by the 125 yards gained by Wood- ward in rushing and passing as compared to the Indians' 27. All of the Woodward boys performed well with that Bruin line showing particularly good in the first half. Most of the Indian ball carriers were tripped up before they could get started by the rushing tactics of Woodward. Backs Bob Aubry, Eddie Lair, and Dick Steger played good hard ball with the Aubry-Lair passing combo clicking more than once. Aub-ry Is Passing Threat AWOODWARD CUBS TROUNCE IRISH Showing power on every play, Woodward's Lightweights, who look like heavyweights, pushed over a big STFOIUI Central team by a score of 9-0, last Thursday. The Blue and White drew blood early in the iirst quarter. With the ball on the Central 10 yard stripe the Irish kicked, but CenterfGeorge Yellar blocked it and the ball sailed into the end zone to give the Bears a safety. ,In the second quarter, Zazada, Bie- niek, Waller, and Dave Parks alter- nated taking the pigskin on a 57 yard drive that was terminated by Wal- ler's run from the 2 for the 6 points and a 8-0 score. Beans Bieniek kicked the extra point and the scoring for both teams ended, although the Blue and White put on three other marches which ended just short of a touchdown. Two ended on the one foot line and one on the .10 yard line. Woodward almost had another tal- ly when Curtis Barnett went into the end zone for a pass which was block- ed and bounded into the air. Curtis leaped for it and had it in his grasp but could not hold on to the ball. Throughout the game, Bieniek and Zazada demonstrated their abilities as griddersg Beans by running and punting, Zazada by his ball carrying. The big Polar Bear line again showed its power by stopping Irish gains and opening tremendous holes. Don Balish, for the Shamrocks, proved outstanding on defense as he repeat- edly broke in through the blockers for tackles. l-lit.. Tattler Reporter Interviews Eddie p After thanking all the gentlemen in Miss Abair's Personal Standards class for rising, I ventured into the hall with my chosen victim, Ed Lair. Finding a comfortable position on the nearest radiator, he then proceeded to tell all. Not satisfied with my hyro- gllphics, he started interviewing him- self by putting out all the data about his favorite person. This being his third year on the varsity football team, he has faith in his team-mates. Ed believes they just haven't warmed up yet, but are liable to let go soon. With a straight face, he confided that he keeps training very diligently. Elmer rates tops as coach with him. This swivel sway-back bruiser's position is quar- ter-back. Being sports-minded, he zlsirf goes out for, basketball and base- a . Not being able to stop Ed from catching the flies whizzing by us, I had to keep my eyes away from the poor struggling fiy caught between his fingers. With this pleasant thought in mind, he joined the list of chili mac lovers in Woodward. I'll have to try that favorite dish of the players some day. Among his favor- ites are Stan Kenton, Personal Stand- ards, split collar shirts, and Eddie Lair. He definitely dislikes long skirts and giggling girls. Ed plans upon going to college through the NORTC. VIKLSZQE Sl-IVKTS What struck the girls' shower room? Not an earthquake, we hope. We may be exaggerating a little, but you would come to the same conclusion if you saw what the shower room looks like with towels littered over the entire place.

THE WOODWARD TA'I'I'LER - 9 TOWN HELL SERIES Pats Patter -2 OPENS SATURDAY Senior Sketches ...ii By Pat Becker l Everyone who attended the game last Friday will remember the won- derful showing our team made against Waite. It was the first time that a team has ever led Waite in the Hrst half. Now we have some- thing to bolster our spirits for to- morrow night's game with the Bull- dogs. H1 fl! Pk It must have been the excitement of the game or 'something-anyhow Hal VanTassel and Pat Thornton were holding hands last Friday! They say it's wondearfulsl! ak Two former Woodwardites making a name for themselves at T. U. are Andy Fenady and Marvin Hascal.

Last Sat- urday a Hallowe'en Party was held at Swing Inn, but not one person wore a costume. Pls vlf ill Many teachers, and perhaps a few students, may recall the days when Myron T.

Ernie is cute, but do you think he looks like a typical secretary ? That's all right, Ernie, we all know you'll do a swell job as Woodward's first boy secretary in many years. Skip Aubry Coming through victoriously, Skip Aubry achieved his determined goal of obtaining oneof the most highly-honor- ed positions, senior class president. Stiff competition was given him by pop ular Ray Varner who held this position in his junior year. Coinciding with our opinion, Skip thinks this was one of the best elections he has yet witnessed. Being probed by the Tattler F.B.I. 1Find Better Interviewsj upon many an occasion, Skip is far from an unknown personality in Woodward. With his in- itiative, backed up by the student body, our class will go far. He is anxious to have every senior back him up by bringing their ideas and suggestions for class activities to him, or to the Tattler Office to be published. Skip has been active in extra-curric ular activities since his freshman year. He has ,played varsity football for 3 years, basketball, and tennis, and holds membership in the Engineering Society and Secretarial Club. He is as yet unde- cided if he will attend Bowling Green State University or not. If he does Skip will probably major in engineering. When famous politicians are elected they usually make a lot of promises. Not wanting to be any different, he claims he'll kiss babies every Tuesday for publicity. He doesn't say how old the babies have to be.-Line forms on right, girls. Keeping up to his reputa- tion, Lover-Boy Aubry's main hobby is women. The other one is boating. Both of these combined, he tells me, make a wonderful combination. At pre- sent, he has a girl from Central. Her name il dont believe ith is Petunia Lakashpetter. Seriously, the moral of this little sketch is onel hope you'll recognize Everyone plays a part in electing. your president and representative. Keep that in mind by backing Skip up wholeheartedly. Together, we can ei- ther make or break our class. THOMPSON TAKES BLEACHER PICTURES O.M. Thompson, school photographer, took pictures of the new bleachers in the boys' gym after they were com- pletely installed. These pictures, 20 in all, ranged in size from eight by ten to three by five. These photos were taken for the Horn Brothers Manufacturing Company, Fort Dodge, Iowa to use for advertising purposes. Pictures were tak- en with the bleachers closed and open- ed, and with a pupil standing by to show the height of the bleachers.

Starting the series of Town Hall pro- grams will be a lecture at the Commo- dore Perry Hotel on November 1 at 11:00 AM. The speaker will be Gwen Dew, noted newspaperwoman. Mi s S D e w chose as her subject, MacArthur's Ja- pan. This is a topic on which she is well qualified to speak, because she spent much time in the Orient and can relate the true picture of the conditions in Japan. In 1940, her newspaper sent her to the Far East to get a story behind the war. In Hongkong she was taken prisoner for six months and suffered the maltreatment common to prisoners of the Japanese government, here she wit- nessed the horrors of Japanese occu- pation. In her lecture Miss Dew will re- late the true picture of the Orient. This season tickets are the gift of Mrs. D u a n e Stranahan, Perrysburg, Ohio, who purchased a Memorial hun- dred dollir membership in memory of h e r mother, Mrs. Suydan. Richard Dressel, editor, and Phyllis Sosnowicz, news editor, will attend the lecture as the subject is connected with news- paper work. Tickets are given only to those who will appreciate the Town Hall series. Distribution of tickets is handled through the Tattler office, and they are given to teachers in the field to which the subject pertains. The teacher in turn, gives them to students who she thinks are most interested. A report is turned in every week to be printed in the following week. BOXES TO BE PACKED Packing boxes for the Red Cross is the chore undertaken by Miss Dorothy Matheny's first, third, and sixth hour orientation classes. These classes, combined, will fill four boxes and will probably fill more than their quota. A commitee was chosen in th e first hour to fill these boxes. Members of the group are Eileen Caldwell, Flor- ence Anderson, Helene Hertszberg, John Tashen, Don Kenny, and John Fitzpatrick, In the third hour, the committee members are Jane Szydlowski, June Wyatt, Delores Zawisza, and Joan Am, borski. Members of the sixth hour committee are Barbara Lueall, Eleanor Kewodz, and Jacqueline Pinney.

SPECIAL CHORUS HARVEST RYTHM ww Wwduwd TONIGHT IN SCHOOL BALLROOM Vol. XX Toledo, Ohio, November 7, 1947 No. 9 TOWN HALL OPENS EIGHTEENTH SEASON WITH JAPAN AS TOPIC 41041, Nou-1 Tho Grst lc-cturc of the Town Hall series was attended by llivliard Drcsscl and Phyllis Sosnowicz, who have submitted the following report for publicationj. A Given Dew, noted newspaper woman and correspondent, opened the eighteenth season of the Town Hall series Saturday, November 1, in the Commodore Perry Hotel at 11:00 a.m. Her chosen subject was MacArthur's Japan . Miss Dew started out on her career ten years ago with only 350, a type- writer named Taflie, and a camera, which she calls Snoops, and since then has journeyed around the world. When one country refuses to accept another country's money, it is a sure sign that things are amiss. This bit of philosophy enabled Miss Dew to sense the on-coming war when Japanese immigration officials refused to cash her American Express Checks in December of 1941. A day which our speaker, and some 300 other persons, will never forget is the one on which they were taken Japanese prisoners and forced to watch the taking down of the Stars and Stripes and the sending up of thewhite unconditional sur- render banner followed by the Japanese Rising Sun. After being taken captive, the group marched ten miles at the point of bayonets to a small hotel where they spent Christmas Eve laying on the floor desperately trying to create the holiday spirit. Then on December 25, 1941, they witnessed the downfall of Hong Kong. JAPANESE CHARACTER As to the character of the Japanese pcople, it is an type which will never be understood. A Jap interprets truthfulness as politeness. For instance, in their eagerness to co-operate, the Japanese made many promises which were never carried out. This does not bother the Jap because, at the time, he succeeded in making you believe him. There, his part of the bargain ended, to his Way of thinking. D The Japanese are a determined, industrious, non-complaining people. They are also a hungry, but not a starving people. They are allowed 750 yens fabout S145 monthly. They can purchase a chicken for S183 second hand kimona, 5'gS22g one egg, 40cg orange 500. Occupation forces issued one bar of soap, two light bulbs, one metal lunch box, and an umbrella to each family when they entered the country. Each family is allotted three matches a There are three groups making up these teams: the combat soldiers who month. Living conditions must still be greatly improved since, at the present time there are iifteen to sixteen subjects living in one room. Japan is one of the best places for an American G. I. to be stationed. The Japanese do not resent his being there. The MacArthur policy in .lzmpan is to make the .laps do for themselves. America is the only country trying to make a country remold itself for its own good. GOVERNMENT TEAMS The Eighth Army fund 150 thousand 'soldiersl form thc Military Gov- ernment Teams who are handling all social, domestic, and political problems. actually fought against the Jap and respects him, the group of soldiers, who thought they were going to be the heroes, who are kicking the people around, re-enlisted combat men, who are doing the finest job of all thc three groups. Onc of the things that we must do to help this country is to re-educate approximately 12 million children. Newspapers print six days a week and save paper on the seventh, for the purpose of new text books. Teachers are facing this problem with only a S12 a month salary for their ediorts. Two of the human interest stories related by Miss Dew are the amus- ing scene of a six-foot, red-headed marine teaching a tiny four foot, bare- footed Japanese girl how to jitterbugg the Japanese described a jeep as A non-charcoal-bu rning vehicle. lKathleen Krell and Charles Hutchins will represent Woodward at this WUJCIAK ELECTED SOPH PRESIDENT The class elections of 1947-48 came to an end Wednesday, November 5, with the sophomore class electing a capable cabi- net to plan class activities for the co- ming year.

Corning out on top in the election results was Don Wujciak, who was elected to the highest office of president. Planning programs for the sophs will be Mike Gusses who takes on the job of vice-president. Gayla Parks will take down the minutes for the classes. Hold- ing the money bags is Dot Piotrowski who will Hll the treasurer position. Keeping the sophs in the news will be reporter Pearl Williams elected by his classmates as sergeant-at-arms is muscle man Lehr Whitney.

EQUIPMENT ADDED TO DEPARTMENT Edgar Sorton, director of the music department, announced the purchase of a phonograph and combination am- plifier for use here in the school. This equipement was purchased with funds from the various dances sponsored by the Special Chorus, Band, and Glee Club. This amplifier will run two micro- phones. By putting the speakerin an adjoining room, pupils sitting in the opposite room can listen, as if it was a radio. It will be used in the auditorium and gyms for concerts and by the school dance band for assembly dances. Various classes in the field of music will use the turntable for music app- reciation and educational purposes. The combination will also be used dur- ing the try outs of students for the vocalists position with the Swing Band. CApproxi1nately twenty students have already applied to Mr. Sorton for the position.l When ask their opinion of the new addition, music students Eddie Tellum, Alvin Wisniewski, and Tom Frisch, re- plied that the equipment was very handy because it is so small, and it also brings out the tone in the music being played. The ampliher will be used after the basketball games for the dances given in the girls' gym. L ee Ry n d e r and the electricity classes helped to set up the equipment. Students To Hear Lecture T.J. Parsley will give a lecture and show a movie on bees for biology and science students during the assembly eriod, November 12. An addmission of .05 will be charged to every student. THE WOODWARD TATTLER Leon's Earsays I l Let's all pitch in and buy a polar bear pin. Fhese stunning new pins which have Woodward Polar Bears inscribed in blue, are made of plastic. Be sure to purchase it from either a football player or a student council member. Here's a chance for us to do something for the players because all the pro- ceeds from these pins will go towards the annual football banquet. Mr. Van Tassel and Miss Abair showed their rc- spect to the team by purchasing one of these new blue and white plastic pins. HIP-HIP HOORAY GRIDDERS!! lt was a great game last week when we took honors over Scott. Let's go to Springfield tonight and repeat our vic- tory. Loads of luck! Friends of John Kubiak have nagged him with the nick name Kabasa which is defined as a Pol- ish sausage. Maybe it's because it's his main dish. He can't wait till he has the chance of cooking it in personal standards. Gloria Gaeth has lost interest in Woodward boys. She seems to be going with a lad from Macomber. Willys Overland sponsored a Halloween dance last Saturday in their Administration Building. Prizes were awarded to the best costume dress. Three Woodward boys were awarded prizes.

JACK MUNGER IN A Vv'HITE SHIRT AND TIE!! No wonder he had all those girls following him last Thursday. He wanted to make sure he looked sharp for the radio program. After last week's game, Bob Verbon was minus a trumpet which was stolen from him. Now Bob has to pay for it because it was the school property. Orchids should be given to Bob Johnson for his blowing ability. At the game he blows plastic bal- loons that are immence, Just call him Blow Hard Bob. Perhaps the worst punishment one can get is having to serve penalty in the dean's ofiice before school where most of the teachers pass gazing ques- tionly at you.

Hi-Light From the Desk . . HE first of the Junior Town Meetings of the Air to be broadcast from Woodward auditori- um will be held next Tuesday, November ll.. This year, as in past years, the program will be open to only those pupils who have work connected with speech, radio, journalism, or other classes which are in some way associated with the subject. This ban is placed on the audience to keep students away from the broadcast whose only interest is to get out of class. Despite the efforts taken to attain an active, in- terested audience, many non-interested students do obtain admission to the auditorium. Though small in number, it is difficult to get much response from a small audience if all the students don't pay attention, and try to keep the platform flooded with intelligent questions when that portion of the pro- gram arrives. If you attend the program Tuesday conduct your- self in and orderly fasion.Have respect for the speak- ers and give them attention they deserve. Remem- ber, the program is being broadcast and many peo- ple are listening. Show Toledo that Woodward can furnish an intelligent attentive audience and an act- ive one when questions are asked from the floor. TRANGE, but we always considered high school students to be civilized. That is we did until our victory over Scott last Friday evening. At that time many vicious attacks were made on students of Woodward by revenge seeking mobs that claim to posses enough intelligence to attend high school. These mobs had previously seen their school go down in defeat to an underdog eleven and were out 0 Editorials to seek some sort of satisfaction. They evidently thought that revenge would serve as salve to soothe their injured pride. Maybe they hoped to prove Scott a better school by bullying members of our band. What they hoped to attain we don't know. This, however, we do know. Through their actions they proved Woodward to be a better school not only on the football field, but also in the ranks of citizens. These mobs did nothing to raise the Scott's stan- dards Friday night. On the contrary! All they did was show that they are not yet mature enough to suffer defeat and come up smiling as sportsman- like people should. To these rowdies we say but one thing. Shame, shame. ' HAT would you do if you went to a Wood- ward football game and did not see a band - neatly clad in blue and white marching be- hind eight prancing majorettes and two stately drum majors? Or if you went to an assembly and were not greeted by the spirited K music of the band? It would seem strange not to see these things which we have become so accustomed to. Yes, Woodward's band is always there ready to add to the school spirit. The members of the band are always ready, on the spur of the moment if necessary, to perform at assemblies and mass meetings. Under the capable direction of Edgar Sorton our band has proven itself a valuable asset to Woodward. At this time we wish to pay tribute to a very deserving organization, whose work is appreciated by the entire student body. THE wooDwARD TATTLER woonwann Dow s scorr 6-0 Grid Picks Sports Editor We again failed to boast our aver- age last week as Hamilton upset Lib- bey and DcVilbiss was held to a dead- lock by winless Sandusky, 7-7. Waite was the only team that conhrmcd to predictions as the Indians trounccd Chillicothe, 41-7. Our SGRSOIFS record now 'stands at 10 right picks, G wrong ones, and one tie which gives us a percentage of GSW. We'rc game so here wc go again out on the prover- bial limb. Waite over Libbey---Well aware that thc Cowboys will shoot the works in this one we cast our ballot in the East Sider's favor in the belief that the Indians will have a counter attack for the South Side fireworks. Halfbaek Bob Carson should be ready to go again and Carson, combined with powerful Bill Martin and Little Joe Kovesdi, will enable Waitegto throw a 'smooth precision-like running machine at the Cowboys, with the lines stacked up about even. DF 11 221 Alliance over DeVilbiss-With al- most an entire new line in there for the Tigers, the Alliance boys figure as favorites because of their fine showing against Canton McKinley. However, the Bengals still have a good backfield intact and could cause trouble. Alliance by at least a touch- down. Pi' ,lf PF Detroit Central over Central-De- spite a much needed rest of two weeks, the Fighting Irish don't look to have enough to cope with the powerful Detroiters who have had one of the top teams in Detroit for many years. Jerry McClosky might help the Irish but we'll select Detroit Central by a subsltantsial margin. Woodward vs. Springfield-If the Bears give another fine exhibition of football such as they did against Scott, there are very few teams in the state of Ohio who could take them. Dick Steger is a definite find at the fullback spot and despite his injured leg Bob Aubry was all-city calibre in the Bulldog game. How- ever, this Springfield aggregation is a big strong team according to re- ports and will have the weight edge although they probably will need it against the fine Woodward forward- wall. Bears Defeated By Waite In Last Meet Running over a wet course and in a drizzling rain last Thursday, Wood- ward's cross country squad suffered a decisive defeat in their last meet of the season, being turned back by the score of 41-20, by an unbeaten Waite crew, now city champions. Buchholz Again Victor Captain Dick Buchholz, having first place in every other city meet, was not to be denied in this tilt either, as he stepped off the two mile course in 10:38, considerably 'slower than his record breaking time of 10:29 set two weeks ago. Buchholz, however, was the only Polar Bear to place in the first six spots, as the Waite Harriers garnered the laurels for the next five positions, the deciding factor of the meet. Ken Eble managed to salvage the seventh spot for the Blue and White with Put Put Houghtaling Hnishing in third place among the Bear runners. In City League competition, Coach Watson Welever's boys were only able to win one meet, while absorbing four defeats. KMIGHTY BRUIN LINE THROTTLES BULLDOG OFFENSIVE GESTURES Outplaying the big powerful Bulldogs in almost every faze of the game, Woodward's small band of Polar Bears upset the highly touted Scott ball club, 6-0, last Friday in a game in which Col- lingwood supporters saw Scott chances for the U City League championship all but ruined. Playing in a slow drizzle of rain throughout the fracas, the Strei- cher Street crew demonstrated a clear-cut superiority by racking up 16-1 yards in total offense to the Bulldogs' 104, and collecting 8 first downs as compared with Scott's 4. Only in punting aver- age did the Collingwood squad have an edge, with Jack Hennig surpassing Skipper Aubry in that department. Both teams erected stiff de- fenses in the first half with the only real scoring opportunity of either squad being a Scott drive which was halted on the Wood- ward 9. However, midway of the third quarter the Bears wound up on the Scott 47 on an exchange of punts and from there Woodward started to move. Fullback Dick Steger, who wrecked the middle of Scott's forward wall, plunged for a first down on the Scott 37 on the first play and then Bob Aubry, running with an injured knee, romped around his own left end down to the 10 yard line, before End Bob Shay flipped him out of bounds on a beautiful tackle. Steger again plunged, this time to the 7, but Aubry could only take it to the 5 in two tries. On fourth down and goal to go, Ray Varner went into the game apparently for a field goal attempt. But, little Ray tried a pass to Eddie Lair out in the flat which fell incomplete. Aubry, Steger Lead Touchdown Drive Taking over on their own 5 the Bulldogs twice cracked that solid Bear line and were still situated on their own 5. This stub- born Bruin resistance necessitated a kick, and Hennig went back. and punted to Aubry on the Scott 40 from where Bob returned all the way to Scott's 22 yard line. Bulldozing Steger promptly set up the Woodward tally when he ripped straight over center for a Hrst down on the 10. Steger repeated to the 6, but Aubry was thrown on the 11. Then, Aubry faded back and hit lanky Jack Smith with a bullseye in the end zone and Woodward led, 6-0. Varner failed on a drop kick effort. Woodward Line Smashes Final Scott Surge Woodward's impregnable line was such a stone wall during the entire game that the Bulldogs had but two serious scoring opportunities. One, early in the first quarter, terminated when Duane Tigges fell on a Bulldog fumble on the Woodward 9. The other drive was stymied with but a minute left in the game when that Bear front line rose up and limited Scott to but six yards in four downs. The final play in this drive found Jack Hennig tripped up by a swarm of Blue and White tacklers on the Bear 10. Steger and Aubry definitely put in their bid for All-City consideration as they each accounted for three Bear first downs and tore off some 130 yards between them on the ground, while the hard hitting Woodward linemen established themselves as one of the better lines in the city. Ends Jack Smith, Chuck Golden, Ralph Gardner, Tackles Duane Tigges, Don Reaume, Bob Schiehslg Guards Royal Wagner, Dick Ubl, Soupy Sabbaugh, and Center Norm Crawford, all contributed their share toward mold- ing that vicious, slashing Woodward defense that 2,000 people were amazed at. New Bear Uniforms Flashy But Costly After waiting for two years, the new white uniforms have arrived. These uniforms were purchased from the Covert Ohio Athletic store who in turn bought them from the O'Shea Manufacturing Company in Chicago, Illinois. Purchasing the uniforms from the Athletic Association Fund, the school ' has paid for these uniforms, not a few hundred dollars, but 31,036 for thirty-three of them. Coming down to facts and figures for one of the grid togs, a jersey costs S12 and a. pair of trousers between S12 and 515. BEARS TO MEET STIFF OPPONENT AT SPRINGFIELD After knocking off a favorite Bull- dog eleven last week, Woodward's scrappy Polar Bears will journey to Springfield today to engage a Springfield aggregation that has de- feated such powerhouses as Massilon and Hamilton with comparative ease, and was beaten by Middletown, sec- ond place ranking in the state, by a sliin two point margin, 9-7. The Polar Bears will be trying to keep the Springfield team in the loss col- umn, as they were beaten last week by Dayton Roosevelt, 20-1.3. Springleld Boosts Large Team Lflflklllir over the oppositions for- ward wall we find it at college weight, averaging approximately 185 pounds, that should prove hard to push around for any team. Running behind this larger line, Springfield boasts a bulky backfield, weighing in at 180 average, that has proven hard to stop to many of the top teams of the state. Woodward will be out for their second out of town victory, their first coming at Lima Central in their ini- tial appearance. Our final road fray will be next week when Woodward clashes with Defiance. The hard charging line, that told the story at Scott last week, will be at full strength, with no serious in- juries derived from the Scott fray, to duplicate the brand of ball they showed against the much heavier Bulldog forwards. Bear Line Ready Royal Wagner and Dick Ubl will be ready to hold up the center of the line, and will combine with tackles, Bob Schiehsl and Duane Tigges, to stop,the hard line plunges that the Springfield team is noted for. Pass receiving Jack Smith will be handy to alternate on the offensive with Chuck Golden and Red Gardner, two fine defensive ends. Norm Craw- ford will hold the center slot. Ready to match the Springfield backs will be Dick Steger, a hard driving fullback with plenty of pow- erg Ed Lair, a quarterback that is useful on offensive and defensive alikeg Skip Aubry, Woodward's triple-threat , and Bud White a fine blocking right half. WHITMER LACED BY POLAR CUBS Crushing a powerful Whitmer ag- gregation, Woodward's rampaging Polar Bear cubs racked up their 4th victory against two defeats. Making the margin of victory was up to the terrific Bear line, and it came through to outcharge and outplay anything Whitmer had to offer. Woodward started off early in the second period with Zazada- taking the ball on a naked reverse, going nine yards for a touchdown and a 6-0 score. This margin seemed safe as the fourth quarter got under way. Whitmer tried futively to make some sort of a scoring threat but to no avail. Then as time narrowed to a few minutes, Dave Parks added an- other touchdown terminating a pow- erful drive. Beans Bieniak then proceeded to kick the extra point and Woodward held a comfortable 13-0 lead. With hardly a minute to go and the ball resting on the Whitmer 10, the second string came in. On the first play from scrimmage Whitmer tossed a 30 yard pass which was caught on the 40 yard line by Bohn, and he ran the remaining distance for the score. This ninety yard play climaxed one exciting football game and a repeat victory for the Bear cubs over Whitmer.

A native of Middle- town, Ohio, four rivals in basketball, she commented! she received her education at Miami University. From there she taught at Lima and then was transfered to Scott. She has been at Woodward since 1941. Specializing in clothing, she practices whatshe preaches.The majority of her wardrobe is the result of her sewing. Being no mere amateur, she succeeds in creating a well-finished piece of work, that would be a credit to any fashion designer. Mrs. Boyeris chief interest, along with sewing, seems 'to be music. Her household boasts the proud ownership of a Hammond organ and a grand piano. At present, she is taking piano lessons to improve upon her technique. Other diversions she enjoys taking part in are bridge and tending her garden, each of these being a hobby in themselves. As advisor of the sophomore class she, as yet, does not specifically know h e r duties. Sympathy must be lent to her because ofthe extra duty she has taken upon herself during a time of strain. The latter being Mr. Bowyer's illness which has resulted in his hopsitilization Thus, it is easy to realize that her new position is an added responsibility. Upon being questioned, she made the statement I'm very happy to be ap- pointed. I think we'll have a wonderful year. Her spirit seems to portray evi- dence clarifying her statement. ,iii..... - GROUP VENTURES TO SPRINGFIELD Garbed in their Sunday best and in high spirits, Woodward's gridders, twenty-five strong, along with assistant coach Watson Welever, members of the athletic board, Art Smith, Lincoln Clark Clyde Van Tassel, and Arnold Brown, and three varsity managers, departed this morning at 11:00 for their overnight trip to Springfield, Ohio, a distance of a 140 miles. Equipment manager Joseph Dence and Forest Black, Tattler Sports Editor, also made the trip. Upon arriving at their destination around 4 o'clock and making accomoda- ations at the Bancroft Hotel, this travel- ing troupe will naturally relinquish it's hunger. Following this, comes the main purpose of making this jaunt, the en counter with the Springfield wildcats. Saturday morning the entire group will journey to Columbus to witness the clash of the Ohio State and North- western football teams. Plans have b e e n m a d e to eat in Worthington,, Ohio following the game. From here the last lap of the journey home will be undertaken. Transportation for the team and those connected with it, will be in the form of a thirty seven passenger Short Way Line bus. Coach Elmer Vorderburg and his b r o th er will make the trip to Springfield by airplane in order to at- tend a Booster's Club meeting being held early in the afternoon. They will make the trip home along with the rest of the group. ..l.-.i..1l- District Meeting Held Woodward's Student Council played host to ten area high school Student Councils, Tuesday, October 28, in the school library.

Money for this project is kept in a jar and each class will send it's own box. They will not count the mone until the banks are full. It all startedxfhursday morning when Margie Leslie and Faye Stacy put the project before Mr. LaRue who immediately, whole heartedly con- sented.

Almost ev- eryone received a souvenier el e p hant. QWhite ones, I thinkll All in all, it was a gay affair as teacher after teacher arrived in their caravans. This party linformal, was held in honor of retired teachers and the new faculty members with gifts presented to the retired, and sympathies extend- ed to the new. Miss Louise Tippett re- ceived a traveling caseg James Pollock was given a shick injector razorg Mrs. Jane Taylor became the proud owner of a wool blanket: Miss Annie Wetter- man was presented with a purse, and Mr. and Mrs. Charles LaRue were be- stowed, by their guardian a ngel s lmeaning the teachersl, with an elect- ric roaster. Guest of honor was Mrs. Carrol Lyman. New teachers, who were presented with loud Hee Haws , were Mrs. Isla VanVranken, Mrs. Merle Ollendorf fattired in her short sy and Virgil fSoc.atesj Sloan. Since the old saying goes When good fellows get together the dice roll the teachers gathered around and played 1 if you'll pardon the expressionl Bingo. The prizes were white elephants which were shot and skinned by Doc Welever and his cohorts, Wilson Weis, Clyde Van Tassel, Elmer Vorderburg, and Skinner Dence. As soon as the party concluded the cuspidor dept was called out to clean out the mess. This second onslaught was led by Arnold Brown, Lee broom stick Rynder, Ro- man candle Scherer, Joseph pics Stobinski, Ted Csweep floors instead of stakesl Szelagowski and O.M. Thomp- son. This gay affair turned out a complete success with approximately 65 present. Orchids should go to Mrs. S. B. Crouse and Mrs. Eva Leu and 12 roses to every one. who did his share to make it a success: QAlso 4 roses? to Watson Welever for his shooting abilityj Rohr's Son Engineer A picture appeared in the November 1947 issue of Popular Science of the Po- wer Tests Rotors, acone at the Langley Field in Virginia. This device is used for testing performance of helicopters without sending them afloat. William G. Rohr, and a graduate of 1936, acted as engineer in this construction.

PALICKI, VARNER HEAD SENIOR PROM CABINET ANNOUNCES COMMITTEES Tears' ffshots It Up On Out of Town Trip On the trip down to Springfield, the football score of 7-6 brought joy and sadness to the Polar Bear gridders. Joy, when Northwestern's Wildcats came through for Ray Varner, Dick Ubl, Wallace Nowicki, Mike Gussis, and Forest Black on their respective foot- ball tickets, as they lost by only one point to O.S.U. Buckeyes with gamblers spotting the Wildcats six points Sad- ness, when they were defeated by that same close score of 7-6 by another team nicknamed the Wildcats. But outside of the loss to Springfield, the journey to Springfield was a lot of fun with the boys giving way to their feelings by exploding cap pistols, crack- ing jokes, and playing card games in their leisure time. Card shark of the trip proved to be Soupy Sabbaugh,who also demonstrated a craft slyness by donning rib pads, elbow pads, tail pads, knee pads, head pads, in addition to the regular football outfit and did a good job of hiding himself from the Wildcats. After the Springfield game, the team decided to spring a surprise on Joe Dance, whose birthday fell on that day, and so Ed Lair led the project of se- curing a nice birthday cake for Joe, but it wasn't a difficult task as the proprietor,ofa Springfield confectionary refused to accept Eddie's offer to buy the cake. Birthday Celebrated Later, in the cocktail lounge of the Bancroft Hotel, Joe Dence was pre- sented with the cake along with a birth- day serenade from Henry Wieczorek, Ray Barker, Vince Gallow, Norm Craw- ford, -lim Mattews, Don Wieczorek, Royal Wagner, Andy Nowak, Butch Miller, Ted Rokicki, Ralph Gardner, Chuck Golden, and Bob Jones. At I0 a.m., Saturday, the troupe de- parted for Columbus and Jack Smith brought out his water pistol to quell the cap-gun wielders of the team. When Don Reaume and Bob Aubry saw the close crew cuts of the Buckeye and Wildcats. they immediately issued a proclamation stating that they origi- nated these hair cuts and demanded recognition of their now country-wide fad. During the game, Ed Zawistowski endeavored to set up a network of his own as he gave a play-by-play descrip- tion of the game. After the game, the group stopped at Worthington, a few miles outside of Columbus, to eat the last meal before hitting Toledo. Here, Dick Steger and Duane Tigges caught up with Fred Henzler and gave him a sample of the new water pistol Steger purchased. Tell the kids about it some- times Fred Chuck White and Bob Schichsl were good little boys on the trip, while chaperones Lincoln Clark and Clyde Van Tassel along with Coaches Elmer Vorderburg, Doc Welever, and Elmer's brother, Skip, failed by not keeping the wolfish gleam out of the b6y's eyes. Program Attended Attending the Fred Waring broad- cast were Edgar Sorton and 60 Wood- ward music student. This broadcast took place Thursday, September 30 at the Paramount Theater. Mr. Sorton was particularly interested in seeing Fred Waring in action because Woodward,s glee club and special chor- us use a lot of Fred Waring arrange- ments. He said that the students who attended got a lot out of the program. An interesting part of the program was the way that the choral group was dir- ected and the fact that the chorus con- tinued rehearsing until just one minute before the performance began. K After the weeks of anxiety before the annual class elections, another week of anxious waiting always follows. During this week the newly organized cabinet spent a great deal of its time listening to the pleas of their buddy-buddies to Please put me on a committee. The most important of these nomina- ations of committees are those made by the Senior Cabinet. Last Friday, Nov- ember 7, a formal announcement was made to the Senior class of students who will serve on the various com- mittees throughout the year. Graduation Plans To Be Made Probably the most desired position is that of Prom co-chairman. Rita Pa- licki and Ray Varner will serve the graduation class in that capacity. Stu- dents Who will be working closely with them to make the prom a success are Nancy Hansen and Caro McNutt who will handle the invitations, while Pat Becker and Doris Basilius will handle publicity. Clarence Fyffe has been giv- en the job of securing the orchestra' Phyllis Wolfe and Richard Dressel will make all the arrangements for dancing classes during the week before the prom. Ed Loo and David Kott are in charge of tickets and Irene Nakos and Tom Burnep will plan the decorations while Leon Zawisza will handle the program' The second highest honor goes to Shirley Foxe and Dick Steger, who will be the co-chairmen on the Banquet committee. Their committee includes Pat Felkner, Mona Roth, Joanne Sack- man, Bob Patton, Duane Tigges, Forest -Black, and Dave Sagers. - Plans for Graduation will be handled by Fadwa Mickel,Marvin Carnes, Mary Lou Shuff, Bob Schiehsl, Bob Verbon, Jim Matthews, Cal Harding, Shirly Managhan, and -Joanne Leibovitz are her committe members.

The sportswrit- ers of ten different papers have chosen Woodward 's Fighting Gals as the All American Football team of the year. These players have been outstanding on their respective teams, they have fought for their school and have made a name for themselves the world around. The line has an average of 224 pounds, that has not yet to be equaled with any college or pro team. On November 21, the Fighting Gals will engage with the Toledo Red Hots, a pro team that took championship in this section last year. The Red Hots have won 20 games and lost one. Their line averages 200 pounds, a wee bit less than the all stars. Don't miss this exciting, thrilling game between Wood- ward's Fighting Galsl' and the Toledo Red Hots at the Rose Bowl on November 21. The Fighting Gals are: L.E. Shirley Donalds 200 lb. L.T.

Sorry, try next month, Mrs. Kuku -if Pl: S4 Dear Mrs. Kuku, Everytime I date a certain girl, instead of her talking about our dates she tells me about her previous beans. She also has nerve enough to tell me her future dates with fellas. After doing a little investigating, I found that I'm not the only one, confronted with this problem of GIRLS BEING FALLACIOUS. What makes them this way. Love-sick My poor Love-Sick, You no doubt haven't had enough experience with girls to see that when they make stories up about previous dates, or future dates, that they are tel- ling you this to make you jealous. I say make-up stories because 9 out of eve? ten girls that go on dates must like the boy she ates for if she didn't, she would refuse his date. Girls spend three-fourths of their time scheming how to gain a date and then- when they have one, what do they do .... spoil it for themselves with fibs. Girls, you do a big mistake if you're one of these so called popular gals on the so called dating list.'l Mrs. Kuku From the Desk . . DON'T know how you feel but I'm getting sick of people looking down at Woodward's football team. I'm also getting tired of watching Waite monopolize football in Toledo. Why can they do this? It's not because they have better material. There are two important factors which enable them to do this. First. and foremost, they are football concious. Their entire sport year is judged on the basis of the success of their foot- ball team. The second reason is that they have the support of the entire East Side. This large booster club enables them to do many extra small things for the game at Waite. Both of these help build a stronger better team. The campaign stressing football has been on a larger scale this year at Woodward than it has for a good number of years. Both freshman and light- weight football has been emphasized. In this way they hope to educate Woodward to become football concious, and get morepvarsity material coming up from the lightweight squad with experience. This sounds swell to me as far asit goes,but why be satisfied with a half job. Why not go all out for football. Letis get a good booster club to back our team The merchants of North Toledo certainly back their city federation teams. Why wouldn't they 0 Editorials back a high school team? Not only merchants but many ordinary citizens would be glad to pledge one or two dollars a year to a Woodward booster club. They're tired of watching Woodward as an under- dog and would like to help. All many are waiting for is to bc asked. It's an idea, why don't we work on it? URPRISING as it may seem, the Woodward boys have finally gotten into the spirit of the dances, and actually dance with the girls. How- ever thesc boys are still at a minimum compared to those who purchase tickets. The majority of the stag line still refuse to indulge in this popular art. If it were not for this fact, the school dances would be perfect. Rowdiness has almost completely disappeared and the crowd's behavior is usually a credit to Emily Post. Attendance too, is favorable, with the students supporting and cooperating with the activities of the school. The club who sponsors the dance is responsible for the decorations, checking, orchestra and other details, but only the students themselves, can make the affair a success by buying tickets and attending the dance.

Our percentage is now ti.3'hi so here we go again, trying to increase it. Fil iii S1 Libbey over Scott -- After their well-earned 7-ti victory over Waite, it looks as if the Cowboys will be all fired up for this one due to the fact that they can get a tie for the City Championship if' they conquer Scott and DeVilbiss, and have an outside chance of winning undisputed posses- sion of the crown if the Indians fall before the Bulldogs. But the Bull- dogs also have a great deal to gain, possibly a tie for the crown, if they take the measure of both Libbey and Waite. 1: 54 rl: El Paso over Waite-Austints Pan- thers of El Paso, Texas, have a rc- markable winning streak of fifteen straight games which is 'still unbro- ken and we d011,t look for the Indians to be in such good shap after their gruelling struggle with Libbey. How- ever, the East Siders may have ideas of breaking that streak and could cop the decision. Looks like a close g 3.1110 . :iz 1: :ia DeVilbiss over Central-This tilt is just about as even a battle as any prognosticator would want to have to pick, and on this one, we might have just flipped a coin and may the up- turned face triumph. But, we will not do this and will try to select a winner on previous showings. There- fore, the Tigers should come out on top. :ga 4: :gz Woodward vs. Defiance-Although the Bruins lost a tough one at Spring- field, our sports' desk installs Wood- ward as the favorite due to their sterling performance against the heavier Wildcats. But the Defiance lads aren't any pushovers as is prov- en by their second place position in the Buckeye League. We anticipate a close contest with the Bruins hav- ing a slight edge on the terrific line play of the Bear forward-wall and the sparkling performances of the classy Woodward backs. SOBECKI, ROSE TOP BEAR BOWLERS IN WINS Iilasting the ton pins for a grand total of 2407 pins, VVoodward's Amer- ican bowling team swept a three game series from the Libbey lacglors who were only able to spill the wood for a total of 2229 pins. Following in the footsteps of former Woodward championship teams, the Polar liear bowlers now have six 'straight vic- tories, having toppled the Central five two weeks ago. Captain Mel Sobecki again proved to be the guiding light in the Bear's conquest racking up a high game total of 561, and garnering the top single ame of 230. For the Cowboys, Kina grabbed the honors by garnering 5137 for his efforts and also the best single score for his team with 206. In the National League, the Blue and White team also brought home a three game victory over the Waite Indians, turning in a total of 2,147 to the East Siders' 1802 over the three game span. Gene Rose copped high honors for the Streicher street crew, compiling a score of 535 and also, Waite, Libbey Claim, City Reserve Title Proving to be a trying problem is the matter of who is to claim the lightweight championship of the city. Waite, with four victories, but not having completed their schedule, pre- sents herself as champions while Lib- bey, with a four won and one lost record, stoutly denies this claim. Arnold J. Brown, Woodward Ath- letic Director, presented to the mem- bers of the Faculty Managers at a meeting, November 5, the most im- pressive argument against Waite's claim to the title. Mr. Brown in- formed the members that Frank Pauly, Athletic Director at Waite, called him a week before the sche- duled Woodward-Waite lightweight game of October 16, and stated that the schedule had been changed so that the Indians would meet Central that night before a paid admission crowd in order to send their band to El Paso, Texas, along with the var- sity football 'squad on November 14. This change also affected Scott since they were to play the Irish that day, so arrangements were made for the Bulldogs and Bruins to clash Octo- ber 16 instead of the originally sche- duled October 30. Following this, the Woodward-Whitmer tilt was moved from November 6 to October 30, thus leaving the former date vacant. When Mr. Brown asked to have the Woodward-Waite contest made up on that day, Mr. Pauly re- fiased, saying the team had disband- e . A letter stating very definitely the facts of this case has been sent to T. G. Keller, secretary of the Athletic Council. An amendment has been added to the constitution of this or- ganization stating emphatically that no team may claim a title without having completed its full schedule. FULLBACK STEGER INFORMS TATTLER An important cog among our big wheels ffootball playersj is Dick Steger, the Bear's brawny and brainy fullback. Talented in more than the sports field, Dick has gained recogni- tion both scholastically and athletical- ly. In the latter category he is credited with 4 years of varsity foot- ball, 3 years of basketball, and active participation in Woodward's tennis team. Besides this, Dick is Sports Editor of the Saga and a member of the Secretarial and W Clubs. At the time of his interview Dick remarked that the many injuries hin- dered, as we all agree, a good team. A hard driving determination must have driven him along with his team- mates to play that unquestionably fine game of football against the now growling Bulldogs. The future goal of this versatile personality is college, where he will seek to place an M.D. after his name. Another of Doc's ambitions is to be a good American citizen, a thing that our country could use more of. At present, he is content with spending his spare time at 417 Strei- cher, where he pays social calls to his dear friend, Babs. He occasional- ly drops in to say hello at his ori- ginal residence, 3310 Jeanette St. The best of luck to this outstand- ing fellow who has earned for him- self a place of honor among the note- worthy students of Woodward. chalking up the high single game of 202. Waite's Bud Drizik turned in the best performance for the Indians with a 467 total andnthe top single game of 181 pins. Woodward's Na- tional Leziuers now have a 5007 average, having lost their first three games two weeks ago. Bears Go To Defiance After Tough 7-6 Loss Smashing back from a 7-0 deficit at the half, Wo0dward's gallant grid- iron warriors outplayed, out-fought, and out-gained a big, tough Spring- field eleven in the final half, last Friday, only to dro their second game of the season by an identical 7-6 margin. The hard hitting Wild- cats piled u 6 first downs to the Bears' 0 and, amassed 125 yards in total offense against a Bruin total of 5 meager yards in the initial half. But after intermission it was Wood- ward's ball game with the Blue and White accumulating six first downs, five on passes, and clicking for .106 yards on the ground and in the air to overshadow the three first downs and the 80 yards gained by the down- staters. Wildcats Beat the Gun Struggling on a mud soaked field, the Bears failed to muster up an ofl'ens1ve drive in the first two quar- ters but the Wildcats headed by Half'- back Dick Snyder, Fullback Clive Rush and another halfback, Jim Pow- ers, plowed up and down the gridiron in off tackle smashes and end sweeps and finally tallied with approximate- ly 5 seconds left in the half when Snyder squirmed over from five yards 'out on an end jaunt. Bill Standley then split the uprights for the victory point. Snyders scoring run came shortly after a Wildcat drive had fizzled out on the Bear 6 when a brace of five yard penalties hel ed Woodward to stall the Springfield machine. Wood- ward proceeded to run straight power plays in an attempt to use up the remaining time left in the first half but a fumble of the slippery ball by Dick Steger was recovered by the Wildcats on the Woodward six and Snyder tallied on the second play. Aubry Unlimbers Pitching Arm Both teams refused to yield in the third canto but at the start of the fourth quarter Quarterback John Wheeler booted into the end zone and the Bears gained control of the pigskin on their own 20 from where they proceeded to uncork an 80 yard march which ended in a Blue and White touchdown. Tailback Bob Aubry was the big gnn in the Bear attack as he cocked his pitching arm and hit the target five times, four of the aerials bring- ing first downs. The first successful Aubry aerial bit End Chuck Golden on the Bear 34 for a first down while the next was again complete to Golden who was downed on the Wild- cat 36. After three plays gained to the 30, Aubry put on a great passing exhibition as he rified the pigskin to Ed. Lair on the 25, to Chuck White on the 10, and a third consecutive time to End Jack Smith 'in the end zone for six points. Ray Varnerls attempted drop kick for the extra point fell a few feet short. Woodward started another t.d. bound march with three minutes left in the game but was stopped when Ed Roberts intercepted an Aubry aerial with a minute to go. The Bears had driven from their own 35 to the Wildcat 40 with a fifteen yard penalty against Springfield and an Aubry toss to White highlighting the drive. Defensive play was once again a strong point of the Bears as line- backers Dick Steger and Ed Lair and the entire Woodward forward-wall piled up the Wildcat ball-carriers be- fore they could get moving, while Coach Elmer Vorderburg will take his small Woodward aggregation to Defiance tonight and will meet an- other out-of-town opponent that has a good record, ranking second in the Buckeye League. In the tussle, the Polar Bears will be out for their second victory against outside com- petition. Wildcats Have Good Record Playing against a heavy favorite last week at Springfield, the Bruins displayed a good brand of ball that brought them within two points of victory. Should they again exhibit that 'solid brick wall defense on the line, and should the backfield attack of recent games materialize, the Bruins will end the game on the long end of' the score. Defiance has but one loss in their league competition, playing teams of such calibre as Findlay's Trojans, Fremont Ross and Fostoria, all teams of fair strength. Woodwardts line will be set and ready to crush the plunging backs of the Panther ball club. The Strei- cher crew returned last week with no serious injuries to keep anyone out of play, hence the entire team is ready to go for this fray. Crawford Doubtful Startei Starting at guard positions will be Dick Ubl and Royal Wagner with Soupy Sabbaugh a capable replace- ment. A swollen leg kept Don Reaume, 190 pound junior tackle, out of action against the Wildcats, and should his limb heal, he will be able to alternate with Duane Tigges and Bob Schiehsl at the starting tackle slots. Norm Crawford is a doubtful starter at center because of an arm injury received earlier in the season, and Andy Nowak, 205 pound handy man, will iill the pivot spot if Craw- ford fails to start. Flanking this hard fighting forward wall will be Red Gardner and Jack Smith with Chuck Golden ready for the relief role anytime. Key man in the Blue and White backfield is Ed Lair, calling the sig- nals from the quarterback spot, While Bob Aubry, the Bruins' chief ground gainer and ace passer, will occupy the tailback position. Either Fred Henzler, fieet back, or Bud White, accurate southpaw flipper, will start at right half and Fullback Dick Ste- ger should provide the power plung- ing for Woodward. Amerks Top Irish In League Opener Toledo's High School Bowling Con- ference 'commenced last Saturday their winning ways from years of the with Woodward's defending champs taking three games from Central in the American League to continue past. The Amerks had a 2548 total as compared with the Irish sum of 2160 as they annexed an easy victory. Ed Siminiak led in the individual honors with a high three game total of 545 while Stan Berezowski accumu- lated top single game with a 224. Berezowski was second in three game totals with 531 while Dick Bieniek had a 509, Mel Sobecki a 500, and Paul Miller, a 463. Bud Hankenhof managed a series of 474 for the Captain Fred Henzler proved a mighty mite in tackling by coming up fast to knock down Wildcat backs who broke into the clear.

A two tone, choc- late and vanilla cake with pink a n d white frosting, and the inscription ra- ra lightweightsn was presented to a few of the previously mentioned players who sit at the same table in fifth hour lunch. These future gladiators of Wood- ward donate a nickle a day to be put in a fund for buying or to pay for the ma- terial and trouble it takes for the two females of the aggregation, Lillian Eck- man, Jeanette Klienhans to have a cake present after each team win. At t h e present the boys have S9 in their trea- sury kept by an able defender Beans Bieniekn. Who knows maybe the thought of the cake has inspired the boys to the best season a polar bear lightweight eleven has ever had,taking second place in the city with three wins and two losses and an all around record of 5 victories which heavily out- weighs the three ties they went down gloriously to defeat. Students Go Crazy Over Looks Karloff Was it true? Was it human? That horrible looking face? The girls scream- ed a couple of them almost fainted, some milk bottles crashed to the Hoot, the boys didn't know weather to laugh or run for the nearest exit. And what caused all this excitment? Just a movie that was shown in the auditorium lunch hours last week. But what a movie it was. Boris fHandsome,i Karloff, with his friend, Peter Lorrie, were looking for people to kill. Two sweet old ladies poisoned old bachelors and buried them in the cellar. The confirmed bachelor, Cary Grant broke down and married Pricilla Lane, a preacher's daughter. While all during this, a character, who thinks he is Teddy Roosevelt, keeps run- ning u the stairs shouting charge Yes alfjthis happened in a movie under the title of Arsenic and Old Lace. If you happen to ask some of the stu- dents what they thought -of it, they would probably all give the same ans- wer Ugh! Plea to Chuck Samson: Please, Chuck quit reading notes that don't concern you, It can be very embarrassing to others, can't it Katie. He frequently appears on the Metro' politean Opera Quiz. He has found that a great many people get aquainted with classical music through popular music. Some illustrations are: Tonight We Love and Boogie To a Concerto are taken from 'l'schaikowsky's fifth sym. phony. Moon Love and Our Love are taken from the Romeo and Juliet Overture. Mr. Spaeth said the chief reason people don't like concerts is because they don't know what to listen for. When they do go to concerts they sit ina comfortable comma and come out of it only to applaud. The definition of music given by Mr. Spaeth is, the organization of sound toward beauty. Five ways to organize sound toward beauty is with rhythm, melody, harmony, tone, color, and form. The average life of a popular piece is six weeks. Mr. Spaeth said that music teachers plan to make too many pro- fessionals out of the students and not enough good ameteurs. To conclude the program he decomposed the popular piece Yes, We Have No Bananas and found it to be a composition of four diff- erent songs which are: Halleluha, My Bonnie Lies Over the Ocean, Bohemien Girl, and Aunt Dinah's Quilting Party. WOODWARDITES INVADE SWING INN I wonder who's here tonight? Let's go over and see. What? Oh, no, it can't be! But it is. Why are they up here! Did they have to come all the way over just to see me? Oh, They're the chaperons for the canteen tonight. Who? Why Mr. and Mrs. Charles C. LaRue, Mr. and Mrs. Floyd Lords, Mr. and Mrs. R. Scherer and Mr. and Mrs. Virgil Sloan. Yes. this was a familiar conversation at the Swing Inn last Saturday night as Woodward students took over. The Woodward Dance Band, in everyone's opinion, provided excellent music for the many canteeners that night. Just a few of the Woodward students who are serving on committees at this club are, Wanda Zientek, Chairman of the publicity and her committees con- sisting of Mary Ann DeBord, Pat Korrell, Phyllis Sosnowicz, Tom Burnep Lehr Whitney.

No, it's not a raid it's only Watson Welever with his elephant gun. It seems as though everyone had a bang-up time at the teachers' party last week. Almost ev- eryone received a souvenier el e p hant. QWhite ones, I thinkh All in all, it was a gay affair as teacher after teacher arrived in their caravans. This party finformal, was held in honor of retired teachers and the new faculty members with gifts presented to the retired, and sympathies extend- ed to the new. Miss Louise Tippett re- ceived a traveling caseg James Pollock was given a shick injector razor, Mrs. Jane Taylor became the proud owner of a wool blanket: Miss Annie Wetter- man was presented with a purse, and Mr. and Mrs. Charles LaRue were be- stowed, by their guardian a n gels Imcaning the teachersl, with an elect- ric roaster. Guest of honor was Mrs. Carrol Lyman. New teachers, who were presented with loud Hee Haws , were Mrs. Isla VanVranken, Mrs. Merle Ollendorf fattired in her s h o rtsp and Virgil CSoc.atesQ Sloan. Since the old saying goes When good fellows get together the dice roll the teachers gathered around and played tif you'll pardon the expressionl Bingo. The p r i z e s were white elephants which were shot and skinned by Doc Welever and his cohorts, Wilson Weis, Clyde Van Tassel, Elmer Vorderburg, and Skinner Dence. As soon as the party concluded the cuspidor dept was called out to clean out the mess. This second onslaught was led by Arnold Brown, Lee broom stick Rynder, Ro- man candle Scherer, Joseph pica Stobinski, Ted C sweep floors instead of stakesp Szelagowski and O.M. Thomp- son. This gay affair turned out a complete success with approximately 65 present. Orchids should go to Mrs. S. Bl Crouse and Mrs. Eva Leu and 12 roses to every one who did his share to make it a success. fAlso 4 roses? to Watson Welever for his shooting abilityj .

Catherine Mikols is president of the association and Miss Marjorie Hamil- ton is the advisor. l PALICKI, VARNER HEAD SENIOR PROM CABINET ANANOUNCES COMMITTEES Team Shots It Up On Out of Town Trip On the trip down to Springfield, the football score of 7-6 brought joy and sadness to the Polar Bear gridders. Joy, when Northwestern's Wildcats came through for Ray Varner, Dick Ubl, Wallace Nowicki, Mike Gussis, and Forest Black on their respective foot- ball tickets, as they lost by only one point to O.S.U. Buckeyes with gamblers spotting the Wildcats six points Sad- ness, when they were defeated by that same close score of 7-6 by another team nicknamed the Wildcats. But outside of the loss to Springfield, the journey to Springfield was a lot of fun with the boys giving way to their feelings by exploding cap pistols, crack- ing jokes, and playing card games in their leisure time. Card shark of the trip proved to be Soupy Sabbaugh,who also demonstrated a craft slyness by donning rib pads. elbow pads, tail pads, knee pads, head pads, in addition to the regular football outfit and did a good job of hiding himself' from the Wildcats. After the Springfield game, the team decided to spring a surprise on Joe Dence, whose birthday fell on that day, and so Ed Lair led the project of se- curing a nice birthday cake for Joe, but it wasn't a difficult task as the proprietor,ofa Springfield confectionary refused to accept Eddie's offer to buy the cake. Birthday Celebrated Later, in the cocktail lounge of the Bancroft Hotel, Joe Dence was pre- sented with the cake along with a birth- day Serenade from Henry Wieczorek, Ray Barker, Vince Gallow, Norm Craw- ford, Jim Mattews, Don Wieczorek, Royal Wagner, Andy Nowak, Butch Miller, Ted Rokicki, Ralph Gardner, Chuck Golden, and Bob Jones. At 10 a.m., Saturday, the troupe dc- parted for Columbus and Jack Smith brought out his water pistol to quell -the cap-gun wielders of the team. When Don Reaume and Bob Aubry saw the close crew cuts of the Buckeye an d Wildcats, they immediately issued a proclamation stating that they origi- nated these hair cuts and demanded recognition of their now country-wide fad. During the game, Ed Zawistowski endeavored to set up a network of his own as he gave a play-by-play descrip- tion of the game. After the game, the group stopped at Worthington, a few miles outside of Columbus, to eat the last meal before hitting Toledo. Here, Dick Steger and Duane Tigges caught up with Fred Henzler and gave him a sample of the new water pistol Steger purchased. Tell the kids about it some- times Fred Chuck White and Bob Schichsl were good little boys on the trip, while chaperones Lincoln Clark and Clyde Van Tassel along with Coaches Elmer Vorderburg, Doc Welever, and Elmer's brother, Skip, failed by not keeping the wolfish gleam out of the boy's eyes. Program Attended Attending the Fred Waring broad- cast were Edgar Sorton and 60 Wood- ward music student. This broadcast took place Thursday, September 30 at the Paramount Theater. Mr. Sorton was particularly interested in seeing Fred Waring in action because Woodward,s glee club and special chor- us use a lot of Fred Waring arrange- ments. He said that the students who attended got a lot out of the program. An interesting part of the program was the way that the choral group was dir- ected and the fact that the chorus con- tinued rehearsing until just one minute before the performance began. After the weeks of anxiety before the annual class elections, another week of anxious waiting always follows. During this week the newly organized cabinet spent a great deal of its time listening to the pleas of their buddy-buddies to Please put me on a committee. The most important of these nomina- ations of committees are those made by the Senior Cabinet. Last Friday, Nov- ember 7, a formal announcement was made to the Senior class of students who will serve on the various com- mittees throughout the year. Graduation Plans To Be Made Probably the most desired position is that of Prom co-chairman. Rita Pa- licki and Ray Varner will serve the graduation class in that capacity. Stu- dents who will be working closely with them to make the prom a success are Nancy Hansen and Caro McNutt who will handle the invitations, while Pat Becker and Doris Basilius will handle publicity.

A surprise guest will appear for this meeting. 1 Station, employee, Walt Markiecki, home from the Sohio Stationis banquet withan addition to their glassware collection plus a nice white napkin. Snatch! ' It isn't often I get a letter in ink, dropped in the Tattler Office. So for this I want to reward t h i s freshman who wrote the letter by putting in her item. In Mrs, Lloyd's first hour Home Ee, c l a s s, Vernice Smith, Coleen Roters mixed their biscuit ingredients wrong and the results were-an upset stomach. If your name hasn't appeared in the Tattler, drop a line or two about yourself or your friends in the tattlerbox, and we'll have it published. Gym inslructoi, Art Smith, was very energetic last Friday during seventh hour. He p l a y ed football with the boys out in the practice field. Dick Uble got the surprise ofhis life last Sunday when he found all his team mates invited to h is surprised birthday party given by his mother. A be lated birthday Wish, Dick. Did you ever see Red get red? If this doesn't make sense now, it will, if you mention Beatrice to Bill Welles. We were honored in the Tattler Office last week by the visit of Dalvin Serrin. Dal, misses us so much that we came to a conclusion that he should come back and start as a freshman all over again. Whenever they Win a football game ,lightweights that fifth hour lunch in the cafeteria, chip in and buy a cake to celebrate their victory. Last week the cake had Rah! Rah! Lightweights decorated on it. A piece went to Ted Szelagowski, Miss Kerlin, and Mrs. Ersig. The rest was rapidly devourd by the boys. Mrs. Anderson should purchase a can of oil to give to Joan Baker for every day after fourth hour tardy bell rings. Joan gallantly walks to the desk and tells Mrs. Anderson that her lock stuck. Yes, I think oil would do it. What a surprise canteeners got last week, Wood- ward day, when Mr. LaRue, Mr. Lords, and Mr. Scherer attended the canteen. Dorothy Whitenach, a graduate of last year, just received a diamond ring for her left hand. The lucky man is Jerry Bostwick. Maybe it sounds odd to you, a girl roaming the halls with a pairof size 95 football cleats on,but to Lois Lyons they feel very comfortable. .Jack Sobczak has his heart in two because of his love sickness for Delores Proch.

This ia hot off the press. The sportswrit- ers of ten different papers have chosen Woodward 's Fighting Gals as the All American Football team of the year. These players have been outstanding on their respective teams, they have fought for their school and have made a name for themselves the world around. The line has an average of 224 pounds, that has not yet to be equaled with any college or pro team. On November 21, the Fighting Gals will engage with the Toledo Red Hots, a pro team that took championship in this section last year. The Red Hots have won 20 games and lost one. Their line averages 200 pounds, a wee bit less than the all stars. Don't miss this exciting, thrilling game between Wood- wardls Fighting Gals and the Toledo Red Hots at the Rose Bowl on November 21. The Fighting Gals are: L.E. Shirley Donalds 200 lb. L.T. Evelyn Narocki 300 lb. L.G. Evelyn Magdus 235 lb. C. Sally Steger 212 lb. R.G. Eleanor Bodner 250 lb. R.T. Rose Ann Crosby 310 lb.

DON'T know how you feel but Pm getting sick of people looking down at Woodward's football team. Pm also getting tired of watching Waite monopolize football in Toledo. Why can they do this? It's not because they have better material. There are two important factors which enable them to do this. First. and foremost, they are football concious. Their entire sport year is judged on the basis ofthe success of their foot- ball team. The second reason is that they have the support of the entire East Side. This large booster club enables them to do many extra small things for the game at Waite. Both of these help build a stronger etter team. The campaign stressing football has been on a- larger scale this year at Woodward than it has for a good number of years. Both freshman and light- weight football has been emphasized. In this way they hope to educate Woodward to become football concious, and get more varsity material coming up from the lightweight squad with experience. This sounds swell to me as far ssit goes,but why be satisfied with a half job. Why not go all out for football. Let's get a good booster club to back our team The merchants of North Toledo certainly back their city federation teams.

She also has nerve enough to tell me her future dates with fellas. After doing a little investigating, I found that Pm not the only one, confronted with this problem of GIRLS BEING FALLACIOUS. What makes them this way. Love-sick My poor Love-Sick, You no doubt haven't had enough experience with girls to see that when they make stories up about previous dates, or future dates, that they are tel- ling you this to make you jealous. I say make-up stories because 9 out of every ten girls that go on dates must like the boy she dates for if she didn't, she would refuse his date. Girls spend three-fourths of their time scheming how to gain a date and then when they have one, what do they do .... spoil it for themselves with fibs. Girls, you do a big mistake if you're one of these so called popular gals on the so called dating list. Mrs. Kuku 0 Editorials back a high school team? Not only merchants but many ordinary citizens would be glad to pledge one or two dollars a year to a Woodward booster club. They're tired of watching Woodward as an under- dog and would like to help. All many are waiting for is to bc asked. It's an idea, why don't we work on it? URPRISING as it may seem, the Woodward boys have finally gotten into the spirit ofthe dances, and actually dance with the girls.How- ever these boys are still at a minimum compared to those who purchase tickets. The majority of the stag line still refuse to indulge in this popular art. If it were not for this fact, the school dances would be perfect. Rowdiness has almost completely disappeared and the crowd's behavior is usually a credit to Emily Post. Attendance too, is favorable, with the students supporting and cooperating with the activities of the school, The club who sponsors the dance is responsible for the decorations, checking, orchestra and other details, but only the students themselves, can make the affair a success by buying tickets and attending the dance.

Our percentage is now 6.392 so here we go again, trying to increase it. iif iii Si Libbey over Scott -- After their well-earned 7-6 victory over Waite, it looks as if the Cowboys will be all tired up for this one due to the fact that they can get a tie for the City Championship if they conquer Scott and DeVilbiss, and have an outside chance of winning undisputed posses- sion of the crown if the Indians fall before the Bulldogs. But the Bull- dogs also have a great deal to gain, possibly a tie for the crown, if they take the measure of both Libbey and Waite. ii :i- Q: El Paso lover Waite-Austin's Pan- thers of El Paso, Texas, have a re- markable winning streak of fifteen straight games which is 'still unbro- ken and we don't look for the Indians to be in such. good shap after their gruelling struggle with Libbey. How- ever, the East Siders may have ideas of breaking that streak and could cop the decision. Looks like a close game. :iz pl: :gr DeVilbiss over Central-This tilt is just about as even a battle as any prognosticator would want to have to pick, and on this one, we might have Just fiipped a coin and may the up- turned face triumph. But, we will not do this and will try to select a winner on previous showings. There- fore, the Tigers should come out on top. kv 0 Woodward vs. Defiance-Although the Bruins lost a tough one at Spring- field, our sports' .desk installs Wood- ward as the favorite due to their sterling performance against the heavier Wildcats. But the Defiance lads aren't any pushovers as is prov- en by their second place position in the Buckeye League. We anticipate a close contest with the Bruins hav- ing a slight edge on the terrific line play of the Bear forward-wall and the sparkling performances or the classy Woodward backs. SOBEIIIII,-ROSE Tor ne.-in BOWLERS IN w1Ns Blasting the ten pins for a grand total of 2467 pins, Woodward's Amer- ican bowling team swept a three game series from the Libbey keglers who were only able to spill the wood for a total of 2220 pins. Following in the footsteps of former Woodward championship teams, the Polar Bear bowlers now have six straight vic- tories, having toppled the Central five two weeks ago. Captain Mel Sobecki again proved to be the guiding light in the Bear's conquest racking up a high game total of 561, and garnering the top single ame of 230. For the Cowboys, Kina grabbed the honors by garnering 537 for his efforts and also the best single score for his team with 206. In the National League, the Blue and White team also brought home a three game victory over the Waite Indians, turning in a total of 2,147 to the East Siders' 1802 over the three game span. Gene Rose copped high honors for the Streicher street crew, compiling a score of 535 and also, Waite, Libbey Claim City Reserve Title Proving to be a trying problem is the matter of who is to claim the lightweight championship of the city. Waite, with four victories, but not having completed their schedule, pre- sents herself as champions while Lib- bey, with a four won and one lost record, stoutly denies this claim. Arnold J. Brown, Woodward Ath- letic Director, presented to the mem- bers of the Faculty Managers at a meeting, November' 5, the most im- pressive argument against Waite's claim to the title. Mr. Brown in- formed the members that Frank Pauly, Athletic Director at Waite, called him a week before the sche- duled Woodward-Waite lightweight game of October 16, and stated that the schedule had been changed so that the Indians would meet Central that night before a paid admission crowd in order to send their band to El Paso, Texas, along with the var- sity football 'squad on November 14. This change also affected Scott since they were to play the Irish that day, so arrangements were made for the Bulldogs and Bruins to clash Octo- ber 16 instead of the originally sche- duled October 30. Following this, the Woodward-Whitmer tilt was moved from November 6 to October 30, thus leaving the former date vacant. When Mr. Brown asked to have the Woodward-Waite contest made up on that day, Mr. Pauly re- fgsed, saying the team had disband- e . A letter stating very definitely the facts of this case has been sent to T. G. Keller, secretary of the Athletic Council. An amendment has been added to the constitution of this or- ganization stating emphatically that no team may claim a title without having completed its full 'schedule FULLBACK STEGER IN FORMS TATTLER An important cog among our big wheels tfootball playersj is Dick Steger, the Bear's brawny and brainy fullback. Talented in more than the sports field, Dick has gained recogni- tion both scholastically and athletical- ly. In the latter category he is credited with 4'years of varsity foot- ball, 3 years of basketball, and active participation in VVoodward's tennis team. Besides this, Dick is Sports Editor of the Saga and a member of the Secretarial and W Clubs. At the time of his interview Dick ri-marked that the many injuries hin- dered, as we all agree, a good team. A hard driving determination must have driven him along with his team- mates to play that unquestionably fine game of football against the now growling Bulldogs. The future goal of this versatile personality is college, where he will seek to place an M.D. after his name. Another of Doc's ambitions is to be a good American citizen, a thing that our country could use more of. At present, he is content with spending his spare time at 417 Strei- cher. where he pays social calls to his dear friend, Babs. He occasional- ly drops in to say hello at his ori- ginal residence, 3310 Jeanette St. The best of luck to this outstand- ing fellow who has earned for him- self' a place of honor among the note- worthy students of Woodward. chalking up the high single game of 202. Waite's Bud Drizik turned in the best performance for the Indians with a 467 total and the top single game of 181 pins. VVoodward's Na- tional Leaguers now have a 5007 average, having lost their first three games two weeks ago. Bears , Go To Defiance After Tough 7-6 Loss Smashing back from a 7-0 deficit at the half, Woodward's gallant grid- iron warriors outplayed, out-fought, and out-gained a big, tough Spring- field eleven in the final half, last Friday, only to drop their second game of the season by an identical 7-6 margin. The hard hitting Wild- cats piled u 6 first downs to the Bears' 0 and, amassed 125 yards in total odense against a Bruin total of 5 meager yards in the initial half. But after intermission it was Wood- ward's ball game with the Blue and White accumulatin six first downs, five on passes, and: clicking for .106 yards on the ground and in the air to overshadow the three first downs and the 80 yards gained by the down- staters. Wildcats Beat the Gun Struggling on a mud soaked field, the Bears failed to muster up an offensive drive in the first two quar- ters but the Wildcats headed by Half- back Dick Snyder, Fullback Clive Rush and another halfback, Jim Pow- ers, plowed up and down the gridiron in off tackle smashes and end sweeps and finally tallied with approximate- ly 5 seconds left in the half when Snyder squirmecl over from live yards out on an end jaunt. Bill Standley then split the uprights for the victory point. Snyders scoring run came shortly after a Wildcat drive had fizzled out on the Bear 6 when a brace of five yard penalties hel ed Woodward to stall the Springfield, machine. Wood- ward proceeded to run straight power plays in an attempt to use up the remaining time left in the first half but a fumble of the slippery ball by Dick Steger was recovered by the Wildcats on the Woodward six and Snyder tallied on the second play. Aubry Unlimbers Pitching Arm Both teams refused to yield in the third canto but at the start of the fourth quarter Quarterback John Wheeler booted into the end zone and the Bears gained control of the pigskin on their own 20 from where they proceeded to uncork an 80 yard march which ended in a Blue and White touchdown. Tailback Bob Aubry was the big gun in the Bear attack as he cocked his pitching arm and hit the target live times, four of the aerials bring- ing first downs. The first successful Aubry aerial bit End Chuck Golden on the Bear 34 for a first down while the next was again complete to Golden who was downed on the Wild- cat 36. After three plays gained to the 30, Aubry put on a great passing exhibition as he rified the pigskin to l'ld Lair on the 25, to Chuck White on the 10, and a third consecutive time to End Jack Smith in the end zone for six points. Ray Varner's attempted drop kick for the extra point fell a few feet short. Woodward started another t.d. bound march with three minutes left in the game but was stopped when Ild Roberts intercepted an Aubry aerial with a minute to go. The Bears had driven from their own 35 to the Wildcat 40 with a fifteen yard penalty against Springfield and an Aubry toss to White highlighting the drive. Defensive play was once again a strong point of the Bears as line- backers Dick Steger and Ed Lair and the entire Woodward forward-wall piled up the Wildcat ball-carriers be- fore they could get moving, while Coach Elmer Vorderburg will take his small Woodward aggregation to Defiance tonight and will meet an- other out-of-town opponent that has a good record, ranking second in the Buckeye League. In the tussle, the Polar Bears will be out for their second victory against outside com- petition. Wildcats Have Good Record Playing against a heavy favorite last week at Springfield, the Bruins displayed a good brand of ball that brought them within two points of victory. Should they again exhibit that 'solid brick wall defense on the line, and should the backfield attack of recent games materialize, the Bruins will end the game on the long end of the score. Defiance has but one loss 'in their league competition, playing teams of such calibre as Findlay's Trojans, Fremont Ross and Fostoria, all teams of fair strength. Woodwardfs line will be set and ready to crush the plunging backs of the Panther ball club. The Strei- cher crew returned last week with no serious injuries to keep anyone out of play, hence the entire team is ready to go for this fray. Craw ford Doubtful Starter Starting at guard positions will be Dick Ubl and Royal Wagner with Soupy Sabbaugh a capable replace- ment. A swollen leg kept Don Reaume, 190 pound junior tackle, out of action against the Wildcats, and should his limb heal, he will be able to alternate with Duane Tigges and Bob Schiehsl at the 'starting tackle slots. Norm Crawford is a doubtful starter at center because of an arm injury received earlier in the season, and Andy Nowak, 205 pound handy man, will nil the pivot spot if Craw- ford fails to start. Flanking this hard fighting forward wall will be URed Gardner and Jack Smith with Chuck Golden ready for the relief role anytime. Key man in the Blue and White backfield is Ed Lair, calling the sig- nals from the quarterback spot, while Bob Aubry, the Bruins' chief ground gainer and ace passer, will occupy the tailback position. Either Fred Henzler, fleet back, or Bud, White, accurate southpaw Hipper, will start at right half and Fullback Dick Ste- ger should provide the power plung- ing for Woodward. Amerks Top Irish In League Opener Toledo's High School Bowling Con- ference commenced last Saturday their winning ways from years of the with Woodward's defending champs taking three games from Central in the American League to continue past. The Amerks had a 2548 total as compared with the Irish sum of 2160 as they annexed an easy victory. lild Siminiak led in the individual honors with a high three game total of 545 while Stan Berezowski accumu- lated top single game with a 224. Berezowski was second in three game totals with 531 while Dick Bieniek had a 509, Mel Sobecki a 500, and Paul Miller, a 463. Bud I-Iankenhof managed a series of 474 for the Captain Fred Henzler proved a mighty mite in tackling by coming up fast to knock down Wildcat backs who broke into the clear.

He frequently appears on the Metro' politean Opera Quiz. He has found that a great many people get aquaintcd with classical music through popular music. Some illustrations are: 'f'onight We Love and Boogie To a. Concerto are taken from Tschaikowsky's fifth Sym. phony. Moon Love and Our Love are taken from the Romeo and Juliet Overture. Mr Spaeth said the chief reason people don't like concerts is because they don't know what to listen for. When they do goto concerts they sit ina comfortable comma and come out of it only to applaud. The definition of music given by Mr. Spaeth is, the organization of sound toward beauty. Five ways to organize sound toward beauty is with rhythm, melody, harmony, tone, color, and form. The average life of a popular piece is six weeks. Mr. Spaeth said that music teachers plan to make too many pro- fessionals out of the students and not enough good ameteurs. To conclude the program he decomposed the popular piece Yes, We Have No Bananas' and found it to be a composition of four diff- erent songs which are: Halleluha, My Bonnie Lies Over the Ocean, Bohemien Girl, and Aunt Dinah's Quilting Party. WOODWARDITES INVADE SWING INN I wonder who's here tonight? Let's go over and see. What? Oh, no, it can't be! But it is. Why are they up here! Did they have to come all the way over just to see me? Oh, They're the chaperons for the canteen tonight. Who? Why Mr. and Mrs. Charles C. LaRue, Mr. and Mrs. Floyd Lords, Mr. and Mrs. R. Scherer and Mr. and Mrs. Virgil Sloan? Yes. this was a familiar conversation at the Swing Inn last Saturday night as Woodward students took over. The Woodward Dance Band, in everyone's opinion, provided excellent music for the many canteeners that night. Just a few of the Woodward students who are serving on committees at this club areg Wanda Zientek, Chairman of the publicity and ber committees con- sisting of Mary Ann DeBord, Pat Korrell, Phyllis Sosnowicz, Tom Burnep Lehr Whitney. Making up the program committee we find Frank Swanson, Jim Spross, Nanette Foran, Jean Sloan, Paula Fasnacht. Theresa Kaminski is the new chairman of the snack bar committee and capably assisting her is Alice Rutkowski, Wanda Zientek, Mary Ann DeBord, -loan Sublecki, Jim Chub- ner, Phyllis Aumillcr. Ted Rokicki is bead ofthe riot squad with a committee assisting him. The present membership expires Dec- ember 31 but new cards will not be is- sued until almost a week later. Plans for a New Years party are now being made. Only members now belonging during 'this past drive will be admitted into the canteen that night. No guest fees will be accepted. On November 22, Woodward will be the first high school to sponsor a va- riety show, which will consist of all Woodward talent. Jean Sloan is chair- man of the program and Nanette For- an co-chairman. Some of the talent will consist of Woodward graduates. John Clarehout sponsor, Florine Fas- natch and Andy Sares. Also in the show will be Dorothy Stallbaum and the Woodward Trio. Each school has a different night to sponsor a show. Many new rules have been made and anyone cought disobeying them will have their cards taken away indefinitely and will not be allowed to buy a new card. The Swing Inn is open four nights a weekg Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday. On Tuesday, and Wednesday, it is open from 7 until 10 and on Friday and Saturday from 8 until 12.

The following are some of the scenes to be found on the four busses that went down. m 4: -of On the Short Way Bus that carried the Woodward football team to Defian- ce, silence prevailed. Words were few and far between on the way to the Bulldogs stadium because the boys were all resting for the game they had to play. With Defiance scoring two touchdowns ahead of our team, the trip back found a disgrunted crew, even less disposed to conversation. wk ill it It was very gay on the students bus: and all the kids had ice cream, candy and coke, when the bus stopped at Napoleon. Jerry Kwiatkowski didn't go hungry, either, for every time any- one glanced his way, he could be seen devouring one tid-bit after another s -at ik Students who went to the game did- n't arrive home until 2:30 A.M. It seems that the bus broke down twice and it was 45 minutes before another bus came to take the travelers the rest of the way home. PK 12 IF Everyone had a good time on the student bus even though it broke down. While waiting for another bus to come, Pat Pope and Nancy Harter led the group in singing Christmas Carols.

OODWARD students have the opportunity of competing in the N a ti o n al Pepsi Cola Scholarship test this year as in p r e v i o u s years. Fifteen of twenty-five seniors wanting to take the test were chosen by the senior class through ballots. These fifteen, why were they chosen? Were they selected on the merit of their mental ability or their popularity? After looking over the list of those who were elected and those defeated, we feel many voted for popularity. A few of the seniors who were defeated are far more capable of taking thc test than some of those elected. Is this fair? This test is graded on the score the student makes and not his personality. If occasion to vote in this respect comes up again, votc for the stu- dents' mental abilities.

Irish Beaten, Cagers Meet Bryan In Opener SMITH SNAGS TWO TOUCHDOWN X K PASSES IN 12-7 BRUIN WIN Pictured a b o v e are halfbacks Bob Aubry fleftj Ray Varner Crighty who threw the touchdown passes to End Jack Smith. Aubry also did a bang-up job in running, pass defense, and tack- ling. 55 Coach Elmer Vorderburg's P o l a r Bears fought their way to their third victory of the season last Thursday, at the expense of the Irish of Central Ca- tholic, in a 12-7 scrap. It was perhaps the most important v i c t o r y of the year for the Blue and White as it marked the first time in the last 13y e ars thatthe Bearsh ave emerged victorious over the Irish, and also served to enable the Bruins to es- cape the celler in the city standings. Statistically, Woodward has about the same edge as the score of the game would indicate The Bears managed eight first downs to Central's six, while they also held the upper hand in total yards gained, compiling 180 to the 134 made by the Cherry Streeters. Neither ball club could muster a sus- tained offensive drive in the first canto, but early in the second quarter Half- back Bob Aubry intercepted an aerial by Central's Steve Wilhelm on the Irish 46 and twisted and fought his way down to the 26. A Steger plunge and a five yard penelty against the Shamrocks put the pigskin on the 19, from where Ray Varner picked up a first down on the Irish 13. Quarters Ed Lair carried to the 10. and then Varner flipped a pass to Jack Smith in the end zone for the tally. Smith juggled the ball but caught it before it hit the ground. The pass from center went wild in the try for the extra point. Another Bear score was racked up shortly after the initial one when Jerry McCloskey fumbled on the Irish 34 and Woodward recovered his bobble. End Chuck Golden picked up a first down on an end-around reverse to Central's 22 yard line. Aubry faded back and sent a long, high pass to Smith, who caught it deep in the end zone. White's extra point attempt was blocked. Irish Rally In Last Half A few minutes after the second half started, the Irish got their offense clicking only to be halted by Norm Crawford's interception of a pass by Tom Keubler on the Bear 32. However, Central threatened several times in the thrid canto, and finally scored in the final quarter, with six minutes left in the game, when Wilhelm tossed an aerial to Al Ball for 26 yards and a touchdown. The score was set up by Bob Recker's return of an Aubry punt to the Woodward's 47 yard mark- er, followed a few plays later by John- ny Raster running 16 yards for a first down on the 26. Joe Weston kicked the extra point for the Shamrock. Woodward Forward-Wall Sparkles Woodward's entire line played a good game as it bottled up the Irish running attack and rushed the Central passers quite a bit. Linebackers Dick Steger and Norm Crawford were always there to stop Central backs from breaking into the clear.Chuck White made some timely tackles to save possible scores. For the Cherry Streeters, Halfbacks Al Ball, and Steve Wilhelm did good jobs while John Raster was a definite offensive threat in the limited amount he played. This was thc final game for Wood- ward and Central, but Libbey tangles with DeVilbiss and Wait's Indians en- counter the Scott Bulldogs in Thanks- giving games which find either Waite or 'Libbey deadlocked for first place in the city league or will see one of these teams take sole possessions of the crown. Happ Thank giving ll BEARS scoRE TWICE IN LAST CANTO BUT LOSE A junior substitute halfback, Ray Os- born, led the Defiance Bulldogs to their 26 to 14 win over the Bruins of Wood- ward, scoring three of his teams four tallies on sprints of 51, 38 and 2l yards. It was the Polar Bears' second defeat in three out of town contests. Defiance took the opening kick on the 18, and on the first play from scrimmage they made the only threat of a first quarter score of both teams, when Glenn Bayliss raced 59 yards toward the Bears' goal. It appeared as though hard driving Glenn would go all the way for the touch down avoiding tackler after tackler,only to be brought down by the last Wood- ward player that stood between him and the payoff station, Chuck Golden Osborn Tallies First Of Three Osborn put the Bulldogs ahead at half time, skirting the end for the first score. Dick Zeschke made good his first of two placement out of three attempts to set the score at 7 to 0 at the second score quarters termination. Early in the third quarter he set the stage for his second tally, coming up fast to intercept Bob Aubry's heave to the 21. On the next play Ray hit the right tackle for pay dirt. Gambling a fourth down with 2 yard s to go, the Bears failed, turning the ball over to Defiance. At this point, sub- Osborn was inserted and scampered 51 yards to set the scoreboard at 20 to 0 at the end of the third quarter. The final Bulldog t.d. was started later in the third and ended at the out- set of the final canto when Tom Schlos- ser climaxed a 55 yard sustained drive, piling over from the two. Schlosser's attiemped kick for the extra point went wi e. Smith, Miller Score On Passes Near the close of the final canto the Bruins set up a pass ba.rage that worked to perfection for two Woodward touchdowns. With three minutes to go, Bob Aubry completed one to Jack Smith, covering 43 yards. Smith erased the final 10 yards, after a fine overhead catch. The extra point was made by Dick Ubl, converted to the backfield for the point after touchdown try. In the last minutes of play passes alone brought the Woodward team from their own 26 yard line to the pay off sta- tion. Bob Aubry again passed, hitting Paul Miller on the 1 yard stripe, with Paul stepping over to register the sixer. Dick Steger plunged the five yards for the extra point. Stand out on defense was Fred Henz- ler, whose hard low tackling brought down three defiance backs headed for touchdown territory. Ray Varner saw action limited against the Bulldogs, his first since the Devilbiss tussel early in the season His injured arm was evident in the game, as he managed but a few short gains, while his passing wasn't up to early season par. -xiii. Amerks Beaten By Macomber's Mechs Led by Dick Bak's dynamic three game total of 639, the Macomber Ameri- cans swept two games from the Bear keglers, these two losses being the first defeat the Woodward five has suffered this season, previously having taken six victories in a row. Stanley Bererowski and versatile Paul Miller were the main guns in the Bear attack, with Berezowski blasting the pins for a 536 score and Miller Woodward's defending ci t y champs go out seeking revenge next Tuesday night when they clash with Bryan- in their open- ing game of the infant basketball season. Last year's Polar Bears got off on the wrong foot against out-of-towners when they were edged 43-42, in a hotly fought con- test. Coach Wilson Weiss will again try to repeat his feat of cop- ping city honors, and takes his Bruin charges over to the DeVil- biss hardwood on Tuesday, Dec. 12, in Woodward's initial defense of its title. Smith Is To Be Key To Offense Inspecting the potential varsity, we find that Jack Smith seems to hold the key to the Bear offensive manuevers as he is the sole returning first stringer from last season's squad. Jack stands around 6'3 and the attack is expected to, revolve around him at either the center position or at one of the forward slots. Another candidate fighting for the honor offilling center is 6' 5 Dave Saygers, while Norm Crawford may be used at either the pivot spot or for- ward. Returning varsity lettermen Bob Rutkowski, Fred'Henzler, and Edward Houghtaling are battling for forward spot again this year, but Ted Rokicki, Bob Aubry, and Butch Miller up from the Lightweights, should provideplenty of opposition for these monogram win- ners. With Ed Lair and Ray Varner avail- able, the guard positions look allright as both Ray and Ed are capable vet- erans who saw action last season.How- ever, they also are pressed with George Fenady, varsity reserve of 46-47, return- ing along with Jim Chubne r, Andy Nowak, and Ralph Stewart, members of the 1946-47 championship Lightweight aggregation. Bryan Team May Be Tough If for no other reason than the fact that were defeated last year by a fine Byran quintet we are a trifle wary of what the downstaters may have. Bill Raymond, Jim DeGroff,'LeRoy Thomas were Bryan mainstays and if any of these boys return, the Bears can ex- pect quite a scrap. Woodward's basketball schedule is as follows: DATE OPPONENT PLACE Dec. 2, Tues. Bryan Here Dec. 4, Thurs. Alumni Here Dec. 9, Tues. Fremont Here Dec 12, Fri. DeVilbiss There Dec. 19, Fri. Scott Here Dec. 26, Fri. Norwalk There Jan 3, Sat. Monroe There Jan 6, Tues. Sandusky There Jan 9, Fri. Waite Here Jan 16, Fri. Libbey There Jan 17, Sat. Central There Jan. 23, Fri.

Serving as the secretary of the Polish Lit, she is very active in its do- ings. It is to be expected that she would thus be the head of this annual affair. Her main interest seems to center up- on music, the latter being proved by her membership in the band and Spe- cial Chorus. She also studies in the Bach Conservatory, under Mr. Gerber, a Scott teacher. Joan holds the position of secretary and treasurer of the band and is robe mistress for the Special Cho- rus. Corresponding with her other acti vities, she is a member of the Toledo Symphonic Choir, which meets in Ma- comber. Although she is as yet undecided, her future might include graduation in Jan- uary. Until that time, she is content with enjoying the pleasures of life. She stressed the point that she doesn't smoke, drink, or swear. Well now, we didn't expect anything different from her. Among her achievements areg play- ing the melophone, horseback enthusi- ast, and being a hard worker. Along with the members of the Po- lish Let, she hopes for the success of tonightis dance. She especially stressed the fact that they were honored to have the football queen at the dance. CLUBS VISIT RADIO STATION It seems as t h o u g h Woodward's clubs are becoming radio conscious. Monday, November 17. fifteen members of the Y-Teen, accompanied by Miss Belle Joseph, toured the studios of W.S.P.D., under the guidance of Mr. Jackson, station program director.This same station was once again invaded by Woodward students, Tuesday, Nov- ember 18, when our Hi-Y, thirty strong, guested at the Cole's House Party pro- gram. . Joy Mohrhardt, advisor to the club made his radio debut at this program as a contestant. He didn't let his boys down, either as a matter of fact, he walked out of the studios at 126 Huron street, S11 richer. Mr. Mohrhardt walked off with the jackpot of the evening by answering the following question, when do the two days Monday and Tuesday, fall on the same day? we don't have any money to offer for the correct answer, so we won't tell you the answer. If you didn't hear the program, we suggest you ask Vanderbelt Mohrhardt. He's an expert on the subject. These two tours took the place of the regular club meetings. Dramatic Society To Be Re-Oganized Under the capable leadership of Mrs. Isla VanVranken, a new Dramatic Society has been organized here at Woodward last Wednesday, November 19. All pupils interested in joining such a club were asked to report to 302 at three o'clock. The group that turned out proved to be large enough to con- sider such a club. so they then and there elected, a cabinet. PatriciaPawlak, senior, was elected president with Phi- lip Hall vice-president, Phyllis Sosno- wicz, reporter, Ralph Wise treasurer. No definite plans have been set for the future but watch for some action from these inspired Shakespearians.

It is said that his reading adds up to twenty million words a year. His lec- tures combine first-hand information about American life, which he receives at his desk in Boston, and American lit- erature, which he picks up in his coun- try wide travels. One important thing that Mr. Weeks stressed throughout the lecture was the effect of war on literature. The men, coming back from war are w r i t i n g mostly short full of sadonic h u m o r, loyalty and fe e l i n g of guilt for their buddies' deaths. They want no part of any country they have seen, only their own. They are also repeating the bro- ken heart lines in their writing, Re- pent in Haste . Mr. Weeks recommend- ed a book called Back Home by Bill Maudlin as an example. Saturday, November 15, his speech was deeply concerned with the wars' effect on men and books and he relat- ed his talk to the tempo of the time.Mr. Weeks told of some of the authors who had written stories in the French Army around 1917. He said at this time short stories had dried up. The books were all long and of one story. However, the short stories are now coming back. Mr. Weeks said that the veterans who have been through this war, will in two or three years, be writing on three sub- jects, humor, loyality, and sympathy. Humor, as you would expect of men who have been through tough times. Loyality, as known by men who have served together through hardships and fears. Third, sympathy as that of the young people being separated from their futures.

The following are some of the scenes to be found on the four busses that went down. 4 l 1 On the Short Way Bus that carried the Woodward football team to Defian- ce, silence prevailed. Words were few and far between on the way to the Bulldogs stadium because the boys were all resting for the game they had to play. With Defiance scoring two touchdowns ahead of our team, the trip back found a disgrunted crew, even less disposed to conversation. FF Pk it It was very gay on the students bus, and all the kids had ice cream, candy and coke, when the bus stopped at Napoleon. Jerry Kwiatkowski didn't go hungry, either, for every time any- one glanced his way, he could be seen devouring one tid-bit after another ff- ik -r Students who went to the game did- n't arrive home until 2:30 A.M. It seems that the bus broke down twice and it was 45 minutes before another bus came to take the travelers the rest of the way home. Pk nk HK Everyone had a good time on the student bus even though it broke down. While waiting for another bus to come, Pat Pope and Nancy Harter led the group in singing Christmas Carols. Sli Ili Pk Jack Munger and his friends proved obliging when they gave their assis- tance by getting some telephone num- bers to go ahead and call the parents of the late comers on this bus.

On the girls' bus, Jean Armstrong kept flashing a beautiful compact a- round. All she would say about it was that John gave it to her.

Of course he was blowing plastic balloons for all the babies on the bus. 11 an 11 Everyone managed to get a bottle Qdon't be alrmed, Pop, it was only gin- ger alep aboard the boys' bus. Judging from the high spirits of the boys, gin- ger ale affects some people strangely. When the busses of the band stopped ik PF 'li at Napoleon, so that everyone could eat the girls of the band made a mad rush for the Moose Cafe where the players were supposed to be eating. They were disappointed to find that the place was very crowded and they couldn't find any one not even a table. BK PF PF In spite of the cold weather the ma- jorettes and the band put on their show at the half. The band was invited to at- tend a dance that evening but they couldn't because it would have delayed them in getting back to Toledo. HF PF ik The entire band and Mr. Sorton wish to thank the,Athletic Board and any- one connected with the trip for making it possible, and extend their apprecia- tion for efforts made to insure its success.

OODWARD students have the opportunity of competing in the N a ti o n al Pepsi Cola Scholarship test this year as in p r e v i 0 u s years. Fifteen of twenty-five seniors wanting to take the test were chosen by the senior class through ballots. These fifteen. why were they chosen? Were they selected on the merit of their mental ability or their popularity? After looking over the list of those who were elected and those defeated, we fecl many voted for popularity. A few of the seniors who were defeated are far more capable of taking the test than some of those elected. Is this fair? This test is graded on the score the student makes and not his personality. If occasion to vote in this respect comes up again, vote for the stu- dents' mental abilities. THE VJOODWARD TATTLER Irish Al Beateng Meet Bryan In Opener SMITH SNAGS TWO TOUCHDOWN PASSES IN 12-7 BRUIN WIN Pictured a b o v e are halfbacks Bob Aubry Cleftj Ray Varner frightj who threw the touchdown passes to End Jack Smith. Aubry also did a bang-up job in running, pass defense, and tack- ling. BL Coach Elmer Vorderburgis P o 1 a r Bears fought their way to their third victory of the season last Thursday, at the expense of the Irish of Central Ca- tholic, in a 12-7 scrap. It was perhaps the most important v i c t o r y of the year for the Blue and White as it marked the first time in the last 13y ears thatthe Bearsh ave emerged victorious over the Irish, and also served to enable the Bruins to es- cape the celler in the city standings. Statistically, Woodward has about the same edge as the score of the game would indicate The Bears managed eight first downs to Central's six, while they also held the upper hand in total yards gained, compiling 180 to the 134 made by the Cherry Streeters. Neither ball club could muster a sus- tained offensive drive in the first canto, but early in the second quarter Half- back Bob Aubry intercepted an aerial by Central's Steve Wilhelm on the Irish 46 and twisted and fought his way down to the 26. A Steger plunge and a five yard penelty against the Shamrocks put the pigskin on the 19, from where Ray Varner picked up a first down on the Irish 13. Quarters Ed Lair carried to the 10, and then Varner flipped a pass to 'Jack Smith in the end zone for the tally. Smith juggled the ball but caught it before it hit the ground. The pass from center went wild in the try for the extra point. Another Bear score was racked up shortly after the initial one when Jerry McCloskey fumbled on the Irish 34 and Woodward recovered his bobble. End Chuck Golden picked up a first down on an end-around reverse to Central's 22 yard line. Aubry faded back and sent a long, high pass to Smith, who caught it deep in the end zone. White's extra point attempt was blocked. Irish Rally In Last Half A few minutes after the second half started, the Irish got their offense clicking only to be halted by Norm Crawford's interception of a pass by Tom Keubler on the Bear 32. However, Central threatened several times in the thrid canto, and finally scored in the final quarter, with six minutes left in the game, when Wilhelm tossed an aerial to Al Ball for 26 yards and a touchdown. The score was set up by Bob Recker's return of an Aubry punt to the Woodward's 47 yard mark- er, followed a few plays later by John- ny Raster running 16 yards for a first down on the 26. Joe Weston kicked the extra point for the Shamrock. Woodward Forward-Wall Sparkles Woodward's entire line played a good game as it bottled up the Irish running attack and rushed the Central passers quite a bit. Linebackers Dick Steger and Norm Crawford were always there to stop Central backs from breaking into the clear.Chuck White made some timely tackles to save possible scores. For the Cherry Streeters, Halfbacks Al Ball, and Steve Wilhelm did good jobs while John Raster was a definite offensive threat in the limited amount he played. This was the final game for Wood- ward and Central, but Libbey tangles with DeVilbiss and Wait's Indians en- counter the Scott Bulldogs in Thanks- giving games which find either Waite or Libbey deadlocked for first place in the city league or will see one of these teams take sole possessions of the crown. Happ Thank giving !! 35 K BEARS SCORE TWICE IN LAST CANTO BUT LOSE A junior substitute halfback, Ray Os- born, led the Defiance Bulldogs to their 26 to 14 win over the Bruins of Wood- ward, scoring three of his teams four tallies on sprints of 51, 38 and 21 yards. It was the Polar Bears' second defeat in three out of town contests. Defiance took the opening kick on the 18, and on the first play from scrimmage they made the only threat of a first quarter score of both teams, when Glenn Bayliss raced 59 yards toward the Bears' goal. It appeared as though hard driving Glenn would go all the way for the touch down avoiding tackler after tackler,only to be brought down by the last Wood- ward player that stood between him and the payoff station, Chuck Golden Osbnrn Tallies First Of Three Osborn put the Bulldogs ahead at half time, skirting the end for the first score. Dick Zeschke made good his first of two placement out of three attempts to set the score at 7 to 0 at the second score quarters termination. Early in the third quarter he set the stage for his second tally, coming up fast to intercept Bob Aubry's heave to the 21. On the next play Ray hit the right tackle for pay dirt. Gambling a fourth down with 2 yards to go, the Bears failed, turning the ball over to Defiance. At this point. sub- Osborn was inserted and scampered 51 yards to set the scoreboard at 20 to 0 at the end of the third quarter. The final Bulldog t.d. was started later in the third and ended at the out- set of the final canto when Tom Schlos- ser clirnaxed a 55 yard sustained drive, piling over from the two. Schlosser's attsamped kick for the extra point went wi e. Smith, Miller Score On Passes Near the close of the final canto the Bruins set up a pass barrage that worked to perfection for two Woodward touchdowns. With three minutes to go, Bob Aubry completed one to Jack Smith, covering 43 yards. Smith erased the final 10 yards, after a fine overhead catch. The extra point was made by Dick Ubl, converted to the backfield for the point after touchdown try. In the last minutes of play passes alone brought the Woodward team from their own 26 yard line to the pay off sta- tion. Bob Aubry again passed, hitting Paul Miller on the 1 yard stripe, with Paul stepping over to register the sixer. Dick Steger plunged the five yards for the extra point. Stand out on defense was Fred Henz- ler, whose hard low tackling brought down three defiance backs headed for touchdown territory. Ray Varner saw action limited against the Bulldogs, his first since the Devilbiss tussel early in the season His injured arm was evident in the game, as he managed but a few short gains, while his passing wasn't up to early season par. - .. Amerks Beaten By Macomber's Mechs Led .by Dick Bak's dynamic three game total of 639, the Macomber Ameri- cans swept two games from the Bear keglers, these two losses being the first defeat the Woodward five has suiered this season, previously having taken six victories in a row. Stanley Bererowski and versatile Paul Miller were the main guns in the Bear attack, with Berezowski blasting the pins for a 536 score and Miller Woodward's defending ci t y champs go out seeking revenge next Tuesday night when they clash with Bryan in their open- ing game ofthe infant basketball season. Last yearis Polar Bears got off on the wrong foot against out- of- towners when they were edged 43-42, in a hotly fought con- test. Coach Wilson Weiss will again try to repeat his feat of cop- ping city honors, and takes his Bruin charges over to the DeVil- biss hardwood on Tuesday, Dec. 12, in WoodWard's initial defense of its title. Smith Is To Be Key To Offense Inspecting the potential varsity, we find that Jack Smith seems to hold the key to the Bear offensive manuevers as he is the sole returning first stringer from last season's squad. Jack stands around 6'3 and the attack is expected to revolve around him at 'either the center position or at one of the forward slots. Another candidate fighting for the honor offilling center is 6' 53 Dave Saygers, while Norm Crawford may be used at either the pivot spot or for- ward. Returning varsity lettermen Bob Rutkowski, Fred Henzler, and Edward Houghtaling are battling for forward spot again this year, but Ted Rokicki, Bob Aubry, and Butch Miller up from the Lightweights, should provideplenty of opposition for these monogram win- ners. With Ed Lair and Ray Varner avail- able, the guard positions look allright as both Ray and Ed are capable vet- erans who saw action last season.How- ever, they also are pressed with George Fenady, varsity reserve of 46-47, return- ing along with Jim Chubne r, Andy Nowak, and Ralph Stewart, members of the 1946-47 championship Lightweight aggregation. Bryan Team May Be Tough If for no other reason than the fact that were defeated last year by a fine Byran quintet we are a trifle wary of what the downstaters may have. Bill Raymond, Jim DeGroff, LeRoy Thomas were Bryan mainstays and if any of these boys return, the Bears can ex- pect quite a scrap. Woodward's basketball schedule is as follows: DATE OPPONENT PLACE Dec. 2, Tues. Bryan Here Dec. 4, Thurs. Alumni Here Dec. 9, Tues. Fremont Here Dec. 12, Fri. DeVilbiss There Dec. 19, Fri.

Serving as the secretary of the Polish Lit, she is very active in its do- ings. It is to be expected that she would thus be the head of this annual affair. Her main interest seems to center up- on music, the latter being proved by her membership in the band and Spe- cial Chorus. She also studies in the Bach Conservatory, under Mr. Gerber, a Scott teacher. Joan holds the position of secretary and treasurer of the band and is robe mistress for the Special Cho- rus. Corresponding with her other acti vities, she is a member of the Toledo Symphonic Choir, which meets in Ma- comber. Although she is as yet undecided, her future might include graduation in Jan- uary. Until that time, she is content with enjoying the pleasures of life. She stressed the point that she doesn't smoke, drink, or swear. Well now, we didn't expect anything different from her. Among her achievements are, play- ing the melophone, horseback enthusi- ast, and being a hard worker. Along with the members of the Po- lish Let, she hopes for the success of tonight's dance. She especially stressed the fact that they were honored to have the football queen at the dance. CLUBS VISIT RADIO STATION It seems as though Woodward's clubs are becoming radio conscious. Monday, November 17, fifteen members of the Y-Teen, accompanied by Miss Belle Joseph, toured the studios of W.S.P.D., under the guidance of Mr. Jackson, station program director.This same station was once again invaded by Woodward students, Tuesday, Nov- ember 18, when our Hi-Y, tnirty strong, guested at the Cole's House Party pro- gram. Joy Mohrhardt, advisor to the club made his radio debut at this program aa a contestant. He didn't let his boys down, either as a matter of fact, he walked out of the studios at 126 Huron street, S11 richer. Mr. Mohrhardt walked off with the jackpot of the evening by answering the following question, when do the two days Monday and Tuesday, fall on the same day?'l we don't have any money to offer for the correct answer, so we won't tell you the answer. If you didn't hear the program, we suggest you ask Vanderbelt Mohrhardt. He's an expert on the subject. These two tours took the place of the regular club meetings. Dramatic Society To Be Re-Oganized Under the capable leadership of Mrs. Isla VanVranken, a new Dramatic Society has been organized here at Woodward last Wednesday, November 19. All pupils interested in joining such a club were asked to report to 302 at three o'clock. The group that turned out proved to be large enough to con- sider such a club. so they then and there elected, a cabinet. PatriciaPawl ak, senior, was elected president with Phi- lip Hall vice-president, Phyllis Sosno- wicz, reporter, Ralph Wise treasurer. No definite plans have been set for the future but watch for some action from these inspired Shakespearians. Miss Meeker, from the Home Service Department of the gas company, came and demonstrated the use of the new stoves in Miss Ruth Lloyd's class room. Iii PK all For being 100 percent during the re- cent magazine drive, the senior boys in Miss Angela Abair's class were served a turkey dinner. The chefs were none other than the junior boys who didn't do quitc as well in the drive. ture was given by Edward Weeks well know editor of the Atlantic Monthly. It is said that his reading adds up to twenty million words a year. His lec- tures combine first-hand information about American life, which he receives at his desk in Boston, and American lit- erature, which he picks up in his coun- try wide travels. One important thing that Mr. Weeks stressed throughout the lecture was the effect of war on literature. The men, coming back from war are W r i t i n g mostly short full of sadonic h u m o r, loyalty and f e e l i n g of guilt for their buddies' deaths. They want no part of any country they have seen, only their own. They are also repeating the bro- ken heart lines in their writing, Re- pent in Haste . Mr. Weeks recommend- ed a book called Back Home by Bill Maudlin as an example. Saturday, November 15, his speech was deeply concerned with the wars' effect on men and books and he relat- ed his talk to the tempo of the time.Mr. Weeks told of some of the authors who had written stories in the French Army around 1917. He said at this time short stories had dried up. The books were all long and of one story. However, the short stories are now coming back. Mr. Weeks said that the veterans who have been through this war, will in two or three years, be writing on three sub- jects, humor, loyality, and sympathy. Humor, as you would expect of men who have been through tough times. Loyality, as known by men who have served together through hardships and fears. Third, sympathy as that of the young people being separated from their futures. Sophomore Cabinet Elects Committees Activities of the sophomore class this year are under the direction of the following committees. The annual soph- omore dance will be under the capable chairmanshipof Connie Hutchinson and Richard Lewis. Assisting them on var- ious committees are: Josephine Kott, Nancy Barnes, Catherine Coble, Joan Urban, Dave Zaski Kenny Rusch, and Andy Douglas. This list is not complete as some names will be added to this com- mittee. Providing the sophomores with inter- esting programs will be chairman Bar- ny J esionowski, and his committe con- sisting of: Vera Sackman, Sally Dickey, Mary Ann Debord, MarionKrause,Billy Krell, Bob Syperski, Adeb, and Howard Lampley.

To all Woodwardites she says, I hope the dance will be a success, and many of the students attend. With such a nice invitation, who could refuse? Pl .

How can any student attend- ing Woodward High School or any other school for that matter, deliberately walk out of the gym where the school song is played? It sounds absurd doesn't it. Well, that's exactly what happened on November 21, during the seventh hour mass meeting. Just what is the mass meeting for? In this case, it was to celebrate our victory over Central. Mr LaRue offers such meetings so the kids can get together, have fun, and congratulate the team for a swell job done. That assembly was the last time the senior members of the football team were to be in front of the school as a group. What a fine a u di e nc e you were. Y o u really proved that you appreciated their victories during the 1947 school year. And believe me, the football team, and the coach are really grateful. U n d e r no circum- stances is our principal compelled to have these get togethersfl Showing disrespect while speakers are talking is plain ignorance and selfishness. But l ea v i n g the place where our school song is being played is in- describable. Our school song stands for everything that Woodward is and everything it means, If you were one of these so called loyal Woodwardites? that walked out of the gym on Friday, if getting out of school ten minutes earlier than usual is more im- portant to you than your own school is YOU DON'T BELONG HERE. We don't want you as an exampel ofa true Woodwardite, JUST HOW MUCH DOES 'WOODWARD MEAN TO YOU? 0 Editorials oodward's thoughts once again turn from those of the gridiron to the hardwood floor. Last Tuesday the Bear Cagers swung into a twenty-one game schedule by entraining Bryan and then meeting an alumni crew Thursday. This com- ing week our cagers play Fremont Ross here on Tuesday and then journey over to DeVilb1ss for a Friday night tilt. Our basketball team has a fine reputation com- piled over the past years and will find it diflicult to live up to it. You, the student body, can do your share by giving our team all the moral support they need. With this support our eagers will play better ball and keep Woodward among the form- idadle cage powers in the state. FF 11 111 HREE newclubs have been formed here at Wood ward recently showing that the student body has become more interested in group activities. The three newly organized clubs are the Pica Club, The Aviation Society, and' the Dramatic Society. These organizations cover a varied scope ranging from aeronautics -and printshop principles to drama- itic works. The formation of these new clubs show the students are eager to cooperate and work together to achieve an ultimate goal, whether in social or scholastic programs. Under capable advisorsthese clubs join the list of worthwhile organization at Woodward, and we can look forward to many act- vities and programs from them. 1 Leon's Earsays 1611232 Monday following the turkey holiday, most everyone returned to school with scornful faces. One reason was because of over eating and the other main reason was the dull idea of returning back to school with that fresh fallen snow on the ground Due to the milk delivery strike last Monday, bot- tle kids had to substitute ice cream bars with their lunches. But with the strike settled now, long lines have resumed around the milk counter. Adam Township bus is playing cupid for Dorothy Foss Jane Bucker and Carl Hass. Betty Oien makes sure she gets here ear-ly in the mornings so she can walk the corridors with Gene Snyder. This also applies to the Ash-Hollinger love affair. Recently having found herself witha stuck lock Theresa Szies discovered that she was at another person'slocker after several unsuccessful tries to open the lock. A reminder: There is only 16 shopping days left before Christmas, and only 17 days until the annual Zet Christmas formal. Also a big event on the cal- endar for this month is the football banquet sched- uled for December 16. We're very proud to have two of our senior grid men on the Times 1947 All- City high school team As you prodably know, they are Bob Aubry, full back, Dick Ubel, right guard. Why not come early before school and see Leon- ard Brooks exhibit his wrestling ability in the halls with David Harvey. It's very interesting to watch. . Thanksgiving Holidays gave many college stud- ents free time to return to their Alma Maters, Bear personalities who returned here for a glimpse were Jack Kennedy, Bill Leon, and Marion Ellsworth. Polish Lit's Harvest Moon dance turned out to be a big success. Among the many strangers who were seen gliding to the music were Virgie J akabowski, Jim Wiluz, Nancy Phillps, Rosemary Krajewski, Don Dilly, Pat Urban, Milly Ludlum and Joan Kolinski.

THE WOODWARD TA'I'I'LER K 9 1 PACE 54-40 WIN OVER BRYAN Coach Wilson Weis Abandoning the conservative type of ball that has character- ized Woodward teams in the past, the Polar Bears opened up with a firewagon attack last Tuesday and held the upper hand throughout as they blasted a good Bryan quintet, 54-40. The issue was never in doubt after the half, and the Bruins coasted in the final quarter to lessen the margin of victory. Bryan Assumes Early Lead With Jim DeGroff, Jim Bell and Bob Koller leading the attack, Bryan s Bears got to an early 7-2 edge in the first few minutes of the game, but then Center Dave Saygers and For- ward Bob Rutkowski got hot and led Woodward to a 12-7 quarter lead. Big Jack Smith cut loose in the second canto for eight points to give the Bruins a commanding 22-14 mar- gin at halftime, despite a brace of field goals by Jim DeGroff. Woodward Sews Up The Game lt was Saygers' turn to shine the third quarter as he added three field- ers to his total, while Ed Houghtal- ing chipped in with a couple of vital two-pointers. DeGroff continued to pile up markers but the Woodward lead was 39-25 at the third quarter's end. Saygers scored another two fielders near the basket in the final canto and Ed Lair, Rutkowski, Norm Craw- ford, Jim Chubner, and Ted Rokicki each tallied a field goal to offset the last quarter splurge of Jim DeGrofi', who connected for nine markers, and Center Bob Koller, who garnered five. DeGroff's final splurge along with 12 points made in the first three quarters gave him 2,1 tallies, on eight fielders and five gift shots, and high scoring honors for the evening. Say- gers was best for Woodward with 14 points on seven field goals while Jack Smith and Bob Koller tied for third place honors with 13 markers apiece. llob Rutkowski was next with 10 points.

Leading the Waite club to victory the two games was Walt Segman who was the high bowler with 565. High kegler for Woodward was Glen Rose with a score of 483. Totaling the pins for the three games gave Waite 1972 pins to Woodward's 1688.

FREMONT, WOODWARD CLASH ON TUESDAY Coach Wils-on Weis will match his Polar Bear quintet against four re- turning first stringers and one light- weight starter of last year, when Woodward meets the Little Giants of Fremont Ross, Tuesday night in the home court. Both squads will be out for their second win, Ross having soundly de- feated Scfott 55 to 23 while Woodward defeated Bryan by a 14 point mar- gin. Baron, Weinhardt, Spark Ross Dick Baron and Walt Weinhardt, forward and guard respectively, head the Little Giants as the pace setters, along with Tex Frey a good set shot. Ralph Grubbs and Bob Beck will al- ternate at the other forward position. Sam Sims will hold down the center positions, and his accurate pivot shot should provide a lot of trouble for the Bruins. With hopes of repeating the defeat Woodward pinned on the Ross team last year, Coach Weis will start Dave Saygers at the center, with Bob Rut- kowski and Jack Smith at the for- wards to provide the needed height to overcome a fast moving and highly improved Ross squad. Jim Chubner and Ed Houghtaling are the probable starting guards. - Hooray For Gus Hooray for Gus, Hoory for Gus .... The words of that familiar song rang out from the throats of Woodward's footballers as they paid their tribute to their favorite and most ardent fan, Gus As those words echoed again and again, that Thursday night, Gus sat there with tears in his eyes, his face full of happiness, telling everyone the world was good and it was wonderful to be alive. For here were his boys, the boys that he had seen go down to defeat to many times, battle their way to victory for Woodward, for Elmer and for Doc, for the students and for Gus.', His crowning moment came on the trip home when Woodward's warriors had started their song and Elmer had patted him on the back. His joy knew no bounds. Players will come, and players will go, but Gus will still be there cheer- ing his boys on to victory. And once a- gain the song Hooray for Gus ..... will be sung and he'l1 get patted on the back his memory will take him back to the first time that happened and maybe, we'l1 be city champs then. Elnlc, Stewart Sparkle As Bear Cubs Triumph Breaking through a tight man to man defense, the Bruin basketball lightweight outfit spanked Bryan's hapless cubs to the tune of 34-19. Completely outclassing the Bryan- ites in executing their set-up and sparked by Ken Eble's sterling play and 13 points at center, the Polar Bears racked up their first win of the season with comparative ease, and with every member of the team, all 16 of them, seeing action. The closest that the Bryan Bears could come to taking the lead was the first quarter score, where they ended at 7 apiece. After that the Polar Bears had no trouble as they built their lead to 20-13 at the half and 33-16 at the three-fourth mark. Stewart came second in the point parade with 10 markers, followed by Weber of the visitors at 7 and Lehr Whitney with 6. 'K 'Iialfback Robert Aubry and Right Guard Dick Uhl were giv- en deserved recognition of their football talents on the Times All-City team as Aubry grabbed the fullback berth on the first team while Ubl occupied the right guard position. There were no Bruins on the second team but eleven gridders from Wood- ward received honorable men- tion for their grid prowess. Dick Steger, who was a terror at the fullback slot for Woodward, was one of the eleven, but Dick was given a greater honor when he won honorable mention, along with Wa1te's Bob Carson, on the Associated Press All-State team. Harry Broadway grabbed a sec- ond team slot and he was the only Toledoan to gain a spot on the first or second string. .Aubry, a hard runner and a fine kicker, was outstanding for Wood- ward all season long and never stopped trying. He was also a capa- ble blocker, a great defensive man, and an accurate passer of much abil- ity. The Skipper , as he is called, connected for six touchdown passes to End Jack Smith and saved sc-ores on several occasions with vicious tackling. Guard Ubl was a defensive giant', although he is small in stature. Dick, combined with Royal Wagner to give Woodward one of the toughest guard combinations in the city, and along with being a deadly tackler, he was a hard blocker. Like Aubry, Ubl never quit and st-ood out among his teammates for his unquenchable spi- rit. . Teaming with Aubry in the first string backfield were Waite's high scoring halfbacks, Bob Carson and Bill Martin, with Dick Penrod of bey in the signal calling slot. End Guido Tambur of Waite Tackle Jack Crooks of Libbey on the right side of the All-City with Ubl, and Roger Wadsworth of DeVilbiss anchors the forward-wall. On the left side of the wall, Guard Jack Momany of Waite, Tackle Harry Broadway of Libbey, and.End Cliff Kaighin of Scott hold sway. Waite and Libbey also dominated the second team with Libbey placing four can- didates and Waite managing three positions. Included among the 11 gridders who received honorable mention for Woodward were Duane Tigges, Royal Wagner, Bob Schiehsl, Eddie Lair, Dick Steger, Jack Smith, Charles Golden, Chuck White, Fred Henzler, Norm Crawford, and Ray Varner. Tigges was a fine offensive tackle and he and Bob Schiehsl, a tough man defensively, formed a rough tackle combo. Wagner, as we men- tioned before, bolstered the center of the line and no doubt will receive plenty of attention next year on the All-City lists. Eddie Lair was an all-around good football player and will be missed next year, while Ends Jack Smith and Chuck Golden were a couple of excellent pass snatchers. White, Varner, and Henzler all were good runners with Varner and White especially effective in passing. Cen- ter Crawford did a wonderful job of filling Steger's big shoes.

Voss Originates Paper To prove that journalism isn't a waste of time, here's something that should be of interest to everyone. Ed- ward Voss graduate of '46, who won the Tattler Achievement Cup that year, put his journalistic training to good use. Ed and two of his roommates, who are attending Dennison Universitg, got tired of scanning the bulletin board of the fraternity house every morning for important notices. So the boys went to work as reporters? Ed serving as typistl and the Granville Gravel went to press. In this little paper there is an ama- teur weather forecast and barometer reading. There are important notices of meetings and coming events. There is also a poem or joke at the end. This makes a very fine showing for VVood- ward. Council Members Attend Meeting Central Catholic High School was the meeting place for the Toledo Dis- trict Council meeting on Tuesday, Nov ember 18.

Mrs. Lucille Farrell and Watson Welever are advisors to this organization. McNutt, Fyffe, Patton, Marks Represent School At Town Hall CEd. Note. Due to a two day vacation last week. Town Hall lectures are printed below. The lecture of November 21, Raymond Swing, was attended by Carol McNutt and Clarence Fyffe sen- iors.J ' A summary of the history of the United States from George Washing tons' time up to the present, was given by Mr. Swing, showing the numerous struggles and unforseen survivals which have taken place to make us one ofthe two great powers in the world to- day. Providence, like the Marshall Plan, helps those who want to help them- selves. Our indifference to foreign policies and ideologies since the eighteenth century, and through the First and Sec- ond Vv'orld Wars, and after them, has in no way helped to curb war. Instead it has only helped to encourage them, Instead of eight powers as in 1919 there are now two, and no important third power to maintain a balance. Mr. Swing does not think Great Britair is a great power any longer, which leaves Russia and the United States as the two great powers. We must realize therefore that if there are only two great powers in the world, the security of one is the insecurity of the other. Mr. Swing thinks our trusteeship of the Pacific Islands, and countries such as Iceland, for the exclusive use of our defense, is a reason for Russia to feel insecure. If one hundred million Americans insist that the U.S. government invite Russia to join a world goverment which would increase the Soviet sense of security, we will have accomplished the first steps towards peace. Russia and the United States working together, could prevent another war. Now that the United Nations has the atomic bomb we have become striken with a power neurosis. The ato mic bomb is a factor of life which has short- ened the expected span of all of our lives. This is the reason why power pol- itics must be abolished and a world government controling law must be set up, Only the people of the Unit ed States can insist on a world govenmcnt where all military power, including the atomic bomb, be surrendered to a World Court. We should think seriously about this because if there is a Third World War there won't be enough left worth saving. Mr. Swing criticized the Truman Doc- trine by calling it aggressive action, not preventive. This doctrine has launched us on an embittered battle with Russia, one result of which has been, that the victimized Greeks have had little chance to become Democratic. The Marshall plan will help Europe, and Mr. Swing believed that if Europe can be healthy and strong, a federation of Europe can be formed to serve as a restraining induence on both the Unit- ed States and Russia i'The Marshall Plan is desperately needed, states Mr. Swing, because although there a r e two million more people in the world today than in 1939, there is ten percent less food. Certainly, unless something is done and done quickly, millions will perish from starvation. Ed. Note: Woodward was represented by Bob Patton and Andrew Marks at the Town Hall lecture given by Edward D. Dunn last Saturday. About fifteen minutes b e fo r e Mr. Dunn's lecture started, Les Dana gave a short biographs of the lecture in the spacious ballroom of the Commodore Perry Hotel. Mr. Dunn has spent most of his life in the capitals of Europe. Russia has been his home for quite a number of years, and through his vari- ous friends has been able to see the people and also their faults. Thus he can truly say, Americans Can Be Proud. Mr. Dunn began by saying that many times countries are old and do not rea- lize it. Europe-has reached that stage and has not even lifted her little finger to do anything about it. He then pro- ceeded to give an example of a man who was sixty eight years old when he married a girl of eighteen. His grand- son said to him Grandad, just think when you are 78, she will be only 28 ! But the grandfather answered: My boy, when I am 78 I shall divorce her and marry another girl of 18 again. By this example he meant that al- though Europe is very old, she can still revive her' resources and once more carry on free and independent trade as Hourished during Europe's in. fancy. f There are many different ways 0 having Europe keep up to American democratic standards. One of these are the spiritual values. The Americans have achieved the greatest of all values That is the willingness to work. This constitutes happy and sanitary con- ditions. The American people have been send- ing aid to most of the countries in Europe and while our aid is generally accepted, we as a nation have been smeared across the pages of papers of Europe as War mongersf' Mr. Dunn goes on to say that if they accept our aid, why not us? The way that foreign papers print articles, one would think that we had started the war. He concluded by telling the story of the man who was handed a ten dollar bill and on the side was another ten dol- lar bill and asked to make change. His problem, was, should he tell the man a- bout the extra ten dollars? What do you think? Mr. Dunn emphasized the fact that we should be constantly guarding against Communism. The Communist are well organized and believe fn their ideas. We are closer to Communists in this coun- try than we realize. It is their goal to establish another group with himself as leader. Creating minority g r o u p s is against our way of Democracy. In conclusion, Mr. Dunn stated that we should guard against Communism at all times and work together for a free and proud America. A Edgar Sortonis classes have nothing on L.C. Clark's silence classes. The only difference is that Mr. Sorton teaches how to play the' musical instruments, while Mr. Clark teaches the science, of N of the instruments.

Even though a ban has been put on parties, Christmas programs are permissable. . One day has has been set aside for these parties. On Wednesday December 18 only, during first hour, Christmas activity may take place.Reason for this one and only day is that on Thursday of that week there is a C schedule and on Friday there is a double assemble devoted to a Christmas program spon- sored by the music department.

Club Activities Rewarded By Picture Last Spring the Red Cross Chapter of Toledo made a survey of all in- stitutions in Toledo. With this proj- cct completed, a Red Cross delegate informed every grade school and high school to choose an institution for which their school Red Cross organi- zation hcould give help. WoodWard's Red Cross members decided to turn their interests and activities on the Toledo Day Nursery and State Hos- pital. Since that time the Red Cross workers of Woodward have been busy making scrap books, doll clothes, and bedding for the Toledo Day Nursery, while their accomplishments of favors and candy will be donated to the State Hospital. A 'Toledo Times photographer came out last week to take pictures of Woodward's Red Cross members, because W-oodward and a grade school were the only Red Cross clubs that had begun work on their projects.. The students who had their picture taken are as fol- lows: Mary Lichon, Pat Bocian., Lu- cille Marzic, Leona Damazyn, Janice Willard, Mary Lou Gardener, Shirley Jean Brown, Carol Hay, Dorothy Rice, Ruth Danner, and Justine Du- Pre. Mrs. Mary O'Brien directs the Rod Cross work at Woodward. , 6 Band Receives Check For their participation beteen halves in the annual Glass Bowl game, the Woodward band will receive a check amounting to S11 from the Glass Bowl committee. This recompensment will go toward the acquiring of musical pieces, or any other need of ourband. Edgar Soaton, directorof the band, receiveda letter from the president, James M. Ashley, of the committee, comlimenting Woodward's harmonious accomplishments. In this letter Harry Wismer, who broadcasted the event, was quoted as saying that in all his experience he had never seen anything to compare with the between halves' show. Mr. Ashley expressed the feeling that the playing of The Star Spangled Ban- ner was very inspirational, and to all who spent their childhood here the half, time playing of 'We're strong for Tole- do,' was nostalgic. ' Edward C. Ames, the treasurer of this committee, also presented a similar check to all the 'high schools that par-, ticipated in this memorable event. Woodward's Band was the first to ac- cept to play in the half time ceremony.

Now that they are installed and basketball season is here, students are filled with bitterness over the new set up concerning these bleachers. They feel it is unfair to restrict the use of these bleachers to only those holding sixty five cent tickets. In order to obtain the reason behind this restrict- ed use, your editor talked to Arnold J. Brown, who is on the athletic board at Woodward. Mr. Brown was well aware of the hard feelings among the students. He said the board had considered the arguments. both pro and con. decided to reserve the bleachers for those holding the higher priced tick- ets. The argumenss were varied and about equal for each side. Upon weighing them all up there were a few arguments which definitely decided the final decision. You are familiar with the arguments a- gainst this present policy, for they probably repre- sent your own personal views, so we will give you the bo1rd's arguments for this restricted use. First, you will undoubtedly agree that the major- ity of people buying sixty five cent tickets are adults. These adults are satisfied to arrive ten min- utes before game time and not a half hour early in order to find good seats. At a good game all seats would be filled twenty minutes before the game and these fadults would be forced to stand, with others coming late, in the balconys above the floor. It isn't fair to ask someone who paid more than the average person to stand in the back of the gym while you sit in good bleachers and at a lower cost. This higher cost in tickets also entitles them to the better seats. When you go to a football game you expect to get a seat proportional with the amount you paid for it. The more you pay. the I Borrowed Boners L---l--- Bylrene Nakos i In Stockton, California elections were held re- cently for officers of the newly formed Ski Club.

One of the newest clubs here at Woodward, the Future Teachers of America, is the group responsi- ble for this exhibit. The purpose behind the organi- zation of a F.T.A chapter here at school is to further the interest in teaching as a profession in the stu- dent body. The club is not being organized for so- cial reason, in fact, only two social meetings are planned, one, later this month, for installation, and one in the spring to welcome new members. Just a few of the tasks to be undertaken by Miss Ethel Kerlin and her club are: establishing a col- lege reference room in the library which one club member will supervise each period ofthe dayg keep- ing all scholarship test new before the student at all times, visit elementary class room for actual experience, last, but not least by all means month- ly round table discussions on the pros and cons of instructing. D A A small group of juniors and seniors, who have expressed the desire to become teachers and whose grades are acceptable, are about the charter mem- bers of this worthwhile club. If you have not been invited to join and are sincerely interested, today is the day to contact Miss Kerlin. Our hats are off to a group that is bound to join the ranks of the clubs who have added the W.I-LS. reputation.

From a re- liable??? source the following information has been squeezed out of these poor, helpless victims. Kenny Berkel- Jr. . I'll let you know after the first game. CJust like himl Dora Ellen Sayger- Sr. Pretty good this year, I think. Ralph Wise- Sr. We have some very good material and a good coach so we should have a good team. Eugene Watson- Fr.

Forward Jack Smith was the entire offensive show for Woodward in the initial quarter as he collected 5 points. Center Dave Saygers picked up five markers in the second canto to give the- Bears an 11-9 margin at the half. Frank Sloan made a foul shot for the only Alumni score in that quarter. Starting fast after the half, the Alumni grabbed the lead as Ted Mil- ler and Jack Wilson whipped in three fast fielders. Midway in the quarter, Miller provided the turning point of the game when he hit for three one- handers to give the Alumni a 22-16 bulge. Bob Rutkowski connected for six points in the third quarter to keep Woodward in the game. Final quarter action found Bernie Seymour fiipping in three baskets to maintain the Alumni lead. High for the night were Miller and Seymour with 8 points apiece, while Jack Smith, Bob Rutkowski, and Dave Saygers all collected 7 markers each to pace the Bears.

The lads of the Club were unable to hit the hoop last Thursday, and failing to complete 11 foul-shots can easily be counted the margin for their loss. Leading at half-time, 12-6, the Bears met a team with aroused spi- rits the second half, only to be slowed down by Ken Eble who hit for six points the third canto. Ralph Stewart was high for both teams, scoring four goals and 3 gratis shots for an 11 point total. Ken Eble, who controlled the back board quite well, was second with nine, followed closely by Irv Precht of the Boys' Cliib whose hook shots netted him 8 In ies.

After beating the highly touted Little Giants of Fremont Ross Tuesday, the Polar Bears are primed to set their fangs in their first city league opposition tonight, when they invade the DeVilbiss gym to tangle with the Tigers. The DeVilbiss quintet will be sparked by Jim Maher, a lad who has played first string Varsity since his sophomore year, and Bob Eikost a starter of last year's aggregation. These boys will team with Tom Mc- Williams, Bob Karczewski, guards, and Malcolm King, a forward, for a fast and sharpshooting five that has their keen eye on the Bears for a DeVilbiss win. Thus far the Upton- Avenue crew has shown well in their first two con- tests, taking each by comparatively easy margins. Teams Evenly Matched in Height Jack Smith, Woodward's sharp- shooting forward, will be guarded closely in this tussle, for the Tigers still remember Smitty's foul shot in the last second, and all around play last year that pulled the game out of the fire for the Polar Bear's victory. Bob Rutkowski and Dave Saygers, forward and center respectively, will give the Bears the needed height to overcome DeVilbiss. Coach Wils-on Weis will start two fast and good ball handling guards in Ed Houghtaling and Red Varner. Libbey, Central, Waite and Macomber will also have their first city league competition, Libbey meeting Central at the Irish hardwood, and Waite moving over to Macomber to match the Mechs. Of the four schools, the Irish of Central boast the most impressive records thus far in the sea- son, having compiled five straight wins. Bear Reserves Topple Ross As Williams and DeBord Star Woodward's lightweight squad has gained another win as it downed the Fremont squad. Holding the team down to one field goal and three free throws at the half, Woodward led at the half, having five field goals and five free throws. The score was 15-5 at the half. The Polar Bears sparkled in the second half. The Little Giants could not hit and the squad was doing its best to keep the Little Giants from scoring. As the third quarter ended, the Polar Bear squad still led by a score of 20-7. Tallying for the Bears were Wil- liams and Debord with 7 points each. Ralph Stewart rang up a score of 5 points. Jones, who made 4 foul shots, was high scorer for the Giants. Williams, who was a substitute for the Bears, played a bang-up game and was quick to take advantage of shooting whenever he could. The team as a whole clicked all the way until the game was over. The final score, Woodward 31, Fremont 10. Sobecki Bowls 538 To Lead Amerksg Glen Rose Tops Nats With Captain Mel Sobecki's 538 score leading the way, Woodwardis American bowlers swept three deci- sive victories from Rossford's keg- lers. Sobecki chalked up his high three game total on scores of 185- 172-181. Sophomore Dick Bieniek of the Bears amassed the top single game, tumbling the pins for a 192 sc-ore and a 513 three game total. Key man in Rossford's attack was Jerry Koperski who garnered not only the high single game of 175, but also was awarded the top spot for his three game total of 483.

INTRODUCINGS' Forest Black As the first president of the newly formed organization in Woodward, The Future Teachers of America, Forest Black rates recognition. Even before he was elected, Forest contributed to the club's beginning by helping draw up it's constitution. As a part of his newly acquired position, he plans to try to fulfill the club's goal by acquainting students with the teaching profession. A fellow not easily understood, he's a true friend to those who have gotten to know him. He has a mind that registers actively and takes interest in his first love, sports. Being Sports Edi- tor of the Tattler coincides with this. Although shy or shall we call it bored withwomen, his social life is constant- ly being coached by his guardian angel, Mrs. Ersig. Proving that he does notice that the opposite sex exists, he made the revelation that he also dislikes long skirts. His southern drawl is a characteristic that has remained with him as a result of his home state, Kentucky. A born critic, he usually tries to get the best of any technical argument, and often does. One of his sidekicks, Joe Shibley, can vouch for that. At present he has no definite plans as to his future. He will probably attend T. U. for a couple of years, and from there continue with his chosen profess- ion. Two fields in which he considers undertaking are journalism and law. Not adhering to Battery, Forest seems capable of aiding the F. T. A. in its in- itial purpose, and doing a good job of it. Cooking Classes Display Abilities Oooh! does that smell good! Yes, I was just entering Miss Angela Abair's first hour cooking class, which is filled with boys :and cooking srnells.w There are 112 boys in these classesfNo girls except 35 who do not take foods.J Right now they are making a chemical com- pound consisting of carrots, flour, nuts, raisens, water, and some mushy stuff. English translation: Carrot pudding, or just fruitcake that doesn't have much fruit. While takinga stroll through the room, I noticed the different chores that the fellows were occupying them- selves with. Melvin Dunlap was eating the nuts, Richard Clay dreamily gazing out of the window, Jim Cunningham was mashing carrots in a bowl. tHe calls it gratinggl call it niashingj Then I saw a group standing around Ronald Breneman, who was washing dishes. Be- tween crashes and yells I could disting- uish these great chiefs: John Blaszeyk, Ken Zielinski, Kelly Hymore, Jim Thompson, Ernie Nidek and Jim Koral- ski. Bill Bolander was watching Larry Kazior kneeding a gooey mess, with Don Silka giving back seat instructions. Another culinary group was com- posed of Roy Ravany, stirring a mix- ture, with Paul Kolasinski and John Sinkovic watching. While he kneeded the dough, a piece of dough fell to the floor. I looked away for a moment and John leaned over to pick it up. I don't know what happened to the piece on the floor, but I'm not accepting any cake from them. Therels a story around that Ted Gallman'lost two things while cooking, a ring, and a tooth. It seems he lost the ring while kneeding dough for a cake, and he lost his tooth when he found the ring. Don't forget fellows. you promised me some cookies next week! Girls whose boy friends play on the basketball team are usually seen sit- ting with the latter's parents at the game. Theparents cheer as loud as the girls when the boys first make their appearance. ' fEd. note: This Town Hall report was written by Donna King on the lecture given by Mrs. Maxine Ber- litz Vollmer.j Mrs. Vollmer was named for her famous grandfather, Maxmallian D. Berlitz, who founded the internation- ally known school for languages. The' most impressionable years of her childhood were spent in Paris. Upon her return to the United States, she graduated from Vassar at nineteen and took post-graduate work at Columbia. She began to be in demand as a speaker in critical Westchester Coun- ty and the demand has grown until now, Maxine Vollmer's field has wid- ened to the whole United States. Speech is a subject that has no end. She gave different examples of how other countries pronounce some of their words differently than we do. The word 'tnice , years ag-o, really meant stupid, so when you tell some- one how nice he is you are really in- sulting him. You would be surprised to find out how many different languages there are in your kitchen: tea is Chinese, cinnamon is Hebrew and vanilla is Spanish. The year 1066 was the beginning of our English language. English is the most important lan- guage to us and thermost difficult. As mentioned before there is no end to speech. Company To Make Anniversary Awards In celebrating 60 years of continuous operation the Home Builders and Sav- ings CQ. will give 10 two hundred dollar, scholarships to 10 Toledo seniors. This year a senior student will be chosen from each school by its principal and deans and will receive this scholarship which is good at Toledo University and Mary Manse College. One recipient of this scholarship will come from each of the 7 public high schools and one each from the three par- ochial high schools. These students must graduate in June 1948, and have average grades. Other points to be considered are financial standing, ability, and sociability. An alternate will be chosen in ' case of reversal of mind of the person chosen. Harold S. Myers is secretary of this organization.

The poor office workers, they won't have any Christmas Vacation. They're going to stick to the old grind while we're having fun. lk PK lk W. F. Rohr is planning to spend his holidays with his son and entertaining his two year old grandson. Mrs. Hella Anderson is also intending to do some entertaining. Her sister is coming up from Cincinatti to spend the Yuletide Season. 1 LITERARY CLUB TO HOLD FORMAL AT TRILBY On December 22, after a lapse,of one year, the Zetalethean Literary Society will once again resume the custom of sponsoring the annual Christmas for- mal. As in former years, Trilby Log Cabin will be the scene of this holiday dance. Lou Little and h is orchestra, which specials in Frankie Carle arrange. ment, will provide music for the joyous couples who will attempt to hasten the approaching Chrismas day. Sally Steger, chairman of the bid committee had the assistance of the following club members: Pearl Willi- ams, Joanne Baker, and D o r 0 t h y Stallbaum. Each member of the Zets received two bids, priced at 52.75 each. Chairman of the group who handled the ordering of souvenir programs for the evening, was Francis Tegtmeyer, Pat Pope Virginia Weiss Phyllis Sosno- wicz. Pat Stickroth also worked on this comittee. The painstaking process of writing all the invitations was ably taken care of by Irene Nakos, chairman, Juanita David and Ursula Cutsinger. Invitations were sent to the entire faculty, parents of the zet cabinet and dance committee members. All presidents of Zetalethean Society's in the other Toledo high schools have also been invited to at- tend. The decorations will consist of one Christmas tree as the cabin is usually decorated by the owners. Pat Becker, senior, headed a committee to plan all necessary decorations. Other girls in this committee a r e: Wanda Zientek, Mary Ann DeBord, Dorothy Pitrowski, Alice Vv'arr, and Pat Korrell. ' Guests who will act as chaperones are Mr. and Mrs. Floyd Stickroth, Mr. and Mrs. Robert Harter, and Mr. and Mrs. Lenord Burkett. Guests of ho n o r are as follows: Mr. and Mrs. Charles C. LaRue, Miss Annie Miller, Mr. and Mrs. Clyde Meek, Mr. and Mrs. Leo Robie, a n d Miss Bertha Vermilya. Mrs. Bessie Burkett is advisor of the literary society and Patricia Stickroth is president. Christmas Projects Numerous This Year Christmas projects are certainly num- erous this year. The oiiice girls decora- ted the ofhce under the chairmanship of Mrs. Margaret Ann Russel. Deleciuos C h ri s t in a s cookies were made by Miss Angela Abair's cooking classes. Don't think these boys didn't enjoy them. Another project in the making were Christmas cards made by the silk screen method. This was done by Venus Gea- nopulos, Andrew Marks, PatPope, Joy- ce Schmidt. One of the most interesting of these projects was done by Miss Betty Nel- son's first hour English class. They sent a ten dollar CARE box to Germ- any for Christmas. On Wednesday the girls' gym class' es had a party, games and dances Music was furnished by the juke box. The same was done Thursday since there was a C schedule. Friday, the gym classes danced. . The boys in Joy Mohardt's wood- shop classes carved out Christmas trees besides their regular shop work which really kept them busy. Classes of S. B. Crouse worked on Christmas gifts this past week after they completed their regular class pro- jects. 1 w l l w l w l l i .. .LTL ,JI -IL .i-1 -42-H, -Q- l .A 445. 52 Rib!-ny ,il- THE WOODWARD TATTLER W WR .. .. - A v-,. .,i K V lui' 1- ' -'--- I If fr!!

TMAY come to you in a white 6 by 5 envelope, or it may hit you between the eyes while youire watching the tiny snowflakes gently fall to the ground, or maybe the familiar strains of some Yule-tide song may command you to open your heart and release that supply of tradition holiday spirit. Sleigh bells, snow, holly, mistletoe, trimming the Christmas tree on Christmas Eve, and the exchang- ing of presents on Christmas morning, these are all traditional things that go together, and, when mixed with a few jiggers of holiday spirit, help to create that Peace on earth, Good will toward men, feel- ing that reigns throughout the rapidly approaching two weeks of celebrations. There are other factors also aiding in the effort to create this spirit. The little things that are present 365 days a year in a small minority of people, but are never recognized until the remaining majority of citizens decide to smile awhile. Maybe you never notice that cheery good morn- ing , or looks like a nice day , during June or Ju- ly, but nevertheless they're there. It just takes a little effort on your part to recognize, and keep that Peace on earth, alive all year. Let's try to make it a Merry Christmas 365 days a year. 8 1 U FTER fourth hour lunch, I recently ventured into one of the boy's rest rooms on the sec- ond iloor. The smoke that clouded the rest room there, was almost as thick as the fog that Welcomes anyone entering the same room during the halftime of a basketball game. Believe me, that represents a lot of smoking. All you boys in Woodward know there is a state law against any smoking in a public school. Why, then do you persistantly sneak cigarettes and smoke them between the lunch periods? Can't you live the six hours you're in school each day with- out smoking? I hardly think so. If you can't you certainly have my sympathy, for you are.then a true- ly sympathetic case. Another thing I noticed,was the fact that the floor was littered with all types' of refuge. The majority of this refuge consisted of scraps of paper, cigar- ette butts, and even an occasional orange peeling. If cleanliness is next to Godliness, it must be pret- ty hot were you stand. Why am I telling you these things? Because I don't want the entire school to get a bad reputa- tion because of the selfishness and slovenly habits of a few. Anyone visiting our school would certainly leave with a very low opinion of Woodward. Sure, we could tell them it's only a small minority that smokes in the rest rooms, but it wouldn't do any good. Too many people let the least defect, no matter how small, overshade all the good principles in a thing. It may not be fair, but you can't say you are being fair when you dirty our rest rooms. Snoopy Q's Q. What are you going to do on New Year's Eve? Eleane Margaritis- -Fresh. I'll probably stay at home or go to the show with my mother. PF SIC 14 Tommy Valdez -Fresh.

YULETIDE TREE Oh hear the hoofs of the A Letter To Santa Dear Santa: We are entering the nineteen hundred and forty reindeer upon the roof so clear, Santa Claus is coming for Christmas Eve is here. He comes sliding down the chim- ney with his pack upon his back, full of toys for little children to make them feel so glad. He is a fat, jolly man with whiskers white and fair. He plants his toys around the tree and fills the stockings there. Then he wisks up the chim- ney and off he goes to fi l l m o r e stockings for other children. We Far For Next Year We present Droopy Earson, famed authority on world affairs who will attempt to lift the veil from the future, and show us what 1948 holds for us. He predicts: fly Gasoline will rise to fifty-six cents a pint. Due to this dates will drop off. Due to that marriage will drop off. Due to the preceding, the birth rate will be nil. Due to that, race will commit a mass sui- cide-all over a pint of gasoline. Q23 Skirts will get longer. Due to that boys will be cautious about asking for dates, because a long skirt may cover a multitude of faults. Due to this marriage will fall off, and the birth rate will drop,and the population will die, all because of an extra six inches on a ballerina skirt. 139 Sinatra will get the axe. Due to his advan- ced age, his high-school fans will drop him for youthful Vic Damone. Due to this, an era will have been closed. Due to that a lot of ancient hags who moaned over Frankie long ago in high school will realize their added years and desperately crowd the rivers in hopes of undoing it all. Due to that, the population will suffer another decline, all over an over-age moaner. C45 Uncle Joe Stalin will keep on acting like a fa- mished boarder at a boarding house-table. Due to that, the draft will be renewed. Due to that dates will fall off. Due to that, marriage will-- Ye gods! Do we have to go through all that again? Thank you Droopy Earson.That will be enough and remember folks, our speaker has the reputation of being 4M per cent right in his cheerful predictions-- and four per cent of that can be explained by acci- dent!

This great birth is celebrated every year at Christ- mas time, which is the time of the year that is meant for goodwill and rejoicing, when one sees glistening white snow, ornaments and decorations, mistle toe and we hear Christmas carols and Jingle Bells. On this greatest holiday season, we exchange presents with our friends and relatives and this gets to the fact, why I'm Writing you this letter, so you could supply the following W.H.S. students with gifts. First on the list is Dick Lepper and Dick Tiller, who roam the halls with beards, so for them, I wish you wouldbring two Schick Injector Razors Cwith the sharpest edges, ever known.D Since the dancers are getting bored with those old juke box records, could you please see to it that we get twenty-four new hits? Please try to bring a porta- ble Singer sewing machine to enable Cora Belle Turner to do her Home Economics in seventh hour study hallg to Adeb Sadd, bring a tiny red wagon in which to carry his books. Mr. Thomae could use a new saddle for his horse, Trigger . A girl who would appreciate a pair of roller skates is Anna Mae Hille, so it would enable her to get to school on time. Santa, be sure to bring Miss Tobin a hand writing idenifer, to make out the writing of her students! Woodward's Al Jolson. Phillip Hall to you, c e r t a in ly could use a big box of burnt cork to use when he sings Mammy, To Mr. A. J. Brown we hope you'l1 be kind enough to gift him with a scooter because he's wearing himself out running from his room to the Athletic Office. Each member of Miss Savage's Sociology class are wishing to find under their tree, an answer book to all the exam questions. Lucille Antoszewski's stocking wants to be filled with Sam Marzec. Santa, the kids here at school in general, would be very greatful indeed if you brought enough money to aid in building the long-life dream, a sta- dium. This is all Santa, and please see to it that these gifts are fulfilled and to you as to everyone else, I extend my wishes for the sincerest MERRY CHRISTMAS and a very properous NEW YEAR! I remain, , Thimothy Junior' Double Holiday Did you know that Woodward has four members of the student body that were born on Christmas Eve? Yes sir, Mary Meach, Constance Czapczynski, Dick Dosch and Sue Ignatowicz are the lucky per- sons who have a double holiday on this day. We also have three students who were born on our Lord's birthday and they are Christine Cottrell, Gene Bartholomew and Don Dragon. Before the bell stroke 12 midnight back to New Year's Eve in around the year 1930 or 31, there was an added mouth to feed at the Barber and Welch household, because of the birth of Mary Lou and Esther. Yep, we even have a New Year's baby here at school and it is none other than Harold Hazard, who celebrates his birthday on the iirst day, of the first month, of the New Year. We end this story by wishing you all a very Happy Birthday. Exams Constantly, Consistently C0fL8t7'ltCfiU6n L I Study .

Thompson, Plans For January Include Movie, Exams It was as bad as I thought it was. for was it?lWell anyway, Woodward's doors swung open Tuesday. January 6, 1948 to admit all students eager to get back into the routine of school days. Coming back wasn't too bad with a C schedule in store on January 22. But as the saying goes, Take the bitter with the sweet, exams will be held on the fatal days January 27 and 28. While teachers, with pens in hand, rack their brains over our test papers and grade cards, students will be calmly enjoying a two day vacation, biting their nails, and wondering about that A that might easily become 7a D . But don't fret kiddies, you will be able to strive for higer marks during the second se- mester which begins on February 22. That's just about the end of our news except the one thing that the Tattler doesn't know, the answers to your exams. Oh, well! we can't always please.

Irene Nakos was in charge of the ordering and distribution of the sweaters, which were purchased in the Hi-Ho Shop of the Lion Store. NEW CLERK ADDED TO OFFICE FORCE A new face has been added to Woodward's office force. She is Miss Barbara Stajszczak, who is taking over Miss Norma Bukus's job of as- sisting the deans. Norma, in turn, will replace Mrs. Eleanor Mieczkow- ski as book clerk. Eleanor is taking a year's leave of absence. Woodward is very familiar to Bar- bara, since she graduated last year. Her sister, Irene, is a junior in school. RED CROSS, SEWING CLASS UNDERTAKE WORTHY PROJECTS As a special project, Woodward's branch of the Red Cross, under the direction of Mrs. Mary O'Brien, has collected used Christmas cards and sent them to shut ins. Some of these cards have been sent to the Saving Children Federation of Park- ersburg, Virginia. The students have now written to Kate Smith asking for names of unfortunate people to whom they may send cards. Mrs. Lola Bowyer's girls have been making dresses for girls between the age group of 12-14. These will be sent to the mountains to aid the girls who are poor in that region. Another worthy task has been taken over by Mrs. Bowyer's students. They have volunteered to make 100 towels to be used in veteran hospitals. These groups have offered their time and talents to aid less fortun- ate people and especially those af- flicted by war. Number Of Unsats Issued Decreases Once again unsats were issued to students on Thursday, December 18. This time unsatisfactory reports proved to be less than in the previous part of the year. English students were given the most, while history, typing, and science students were not far behind. Unsatisfactories are a warning to im- prove work and give students a better chance to bring up' their low standards in classes in which they were issued. To the senior 'class 62 unsats were issued: 19 to the girls, 43 to the boys. Juniors received 148 in all: Girls, 41, boys 80. In the lower classes Sophomores received 148: The girls 693 boys 96. Girls in the freshman class were given 69, and boys 96, which makes atotal of 165.

Dave Rubka and Jerome Zackman were the boys who came to Woodward to secure thisfpicture. EXAMS TYPED During the Christmas vacation, Mrs. Margaret Ann Bradley, and Mrs. Elinore Mieczkowski were busily engaged in typing the mid term examinations. They had asked that all teachers turn in exams at this time. Not hindered by the usual office routine the clerks devot- ed their time to typing the tests. The re- mainder of the exams not already hand- ed in must be in the office by January 21. Bryan To Speak Teachers and members of the admin- istrative branch of Toledo schools will have an opportunity to hear Julien Bryan, Executive Director Internation- al Film Foundation Inc. on Monday, January 12, 1948 at Macomber Voca- tional High School. HALL ADVANCES ,IN CONTEST FINALS Woodward's students and faculty eagerly await the results of the ora- tion of Philip Hall, who will attend the district meeting of the Prince of Peace contest at the Methodist Church in Bluffton, Ohio, Sunday, January 11, at 7:30 p. m. Y Four thousand boys and girls par- ticipated in the opening contest on Armistice Sunday and all have been eliminated but 138. Philip, who re- ceived a silver medal for the county contest, is striving for a gold medal and the privilege of entering the state contest. Other counties contesting in the district meet besides Lucas are as follows: Auglaize, Logan, Mercer, Miami, Shelby, Union and Wyondot counties. Philip's topic will be: Question For Now, Forever. Phil- ip, a junior, entered this contest through Mrs. Dorothy Matheny's ad- vanced speech class. Triple Header Planned Ai' New Sports Arena Alterations of the city high school basketball schedule, arising from dif- ficulties in acquiring playing sites, were made Tuesday night by the fac- ulty managers of the seven, respec- tive high schools at their regular monthly meeting at the Willard Hotel. Last year a vote was taken con- cerning playing a triple header at the University of Toledo fieldhouse on January 17, 1948. Ballots were 4 to 3 in favor of the plan. How- ever, matters arose this season to make the fieldhouse unavailable on this particular night. Finally, ar- rangements were made to move the triple header to the Sports Arena for Friday night, January 23, with Woodward meeting Macomber, De- Vilbiss encountering Scott, and Waite engaging Central with Libbey draw- ing the bye. This move will relieve a burden from the Polar Bears' shoulders be- cause they were scheduled to play Libbey January 16 and Central the next night on January 17. The. Libbey engagement will be held, but the Central skirmish, with the approval of both coaches of the respective teams, has been changed to Tuesday, January 20. Lightweight games on the day of the triple header will have to be played in the afternoon. Prices of admission for the triple header have risen very little, con- sidering former prices of admission for one game. Students' tickets will be 50c, instead of 35c, adults will be 51.00, instead of the former 65c, and reserved seats will sell at 51.25. Van Tassel Cheers Team Before the Norwalk game, Wood- wardis basketball team was cheered by a telegram from Clyde Van Tassel vis- iting in Florida during the holidays. Mr. Van Tassel, who isamember of the Athletic Board, attends all the games both at home and on the road. Miss Edna McLaughlin's classes were taken over on Tuesday, January 6, by a substitute teacher who is a director of program and entertain- ment activities at a community house. From The Desk .... OODWARD'S faculty and student body showed again the spirit they have in sup- porting worthy organizations. On December 17 of last year, you were asked to give contributions to CARE for food boxes to be shipped to Europe. Realizing this was a cause for the good of humanity, you came through with 59654. Students of various classes also contributed enough money for four or five more food boxes which is not included in the sum previously mentioned. This money was sent to CARE headquarters where they prepared food boxes with goods pur- chased by your contributions. Each box contains SIO worth offoodstuffs which is sent to the country designated by the contributor. CARE has been checked by the government and is now their legal agency for sending foodstuffs abroad as gifts from individuals in our country. You can rest assured that all your money will be spent for food and none of it will line the pockets of agency officials. Our government is behind CARE and contributions from you showed that Woodward is also backing CARE. Congratulations. Circus Comes To Town Suppose a circus came to town looking for new talent. If a talent scout should venture over to Wood- ward he would no doubt see the following possibil- ities: He would probably choose Dorothy Davis as bare- back rider because of her grace and charm. He would pick Dcn Cukierski as sword swallower because of his daring ways He would put Jeanette Klienhans under contract as fire eater becau e she is such an imp. Kenny Ber le would be chosen as snake charmer because of his fascinating ways. Evelyn Peth would be spotted as knife thrower after the t lent scout saw her performance in gym class. Pfickles Dilley would be billed as rubber man be- cause of his amazing dexterity. Alice Cristobal would be starred as tight rope walker because of her unusual sense of balance. The scout would see possibilities in Paul Skaff as a clown because of his zany antics. Yes, the talent scout would have a field day at Woodward.

Tues- day was the fatal return to school work again. Be- fore I start this column, the Tattler Staff wishes everyone a 'tHappy Leap Year and what a year it should be?? Instead of giving the fellas a little advice about hurring to secure their dates for the senior prom, May 21, I'm going to change that custom a little since it is Leap Year--Girls, the prom is not far off, so hurry and grab your pardner before it is too late! Remember girls, during Leap Year it is said that girls ask the boys for the dates! While on the subject of Girls' Year, Leap Year to you, I want to take time out for this little poem. Leap Year comes but once in four years, But brother, those 366 days are already here, So hibernate yourself until it disappears, For if you don't she'll have you snagged before the end of the year. Lucky Gloria Wrobel! Her Christmas gift from her boy friend, Eddie Offet, consisted of a portable typewriter. Home on leave and roaming the halls as usual, is Felix, Cupy-doll? Cristobel. John Francis, who was recently discharged, is also seen in the halls. John will be returning here to finish his senior year in a couple more weeks. Thursday, January 22, the first C schedule of the new year will be shown. There is also news that exams are scheduled for the 27 and 28 of this month. Is this a new friendship- - -Bob Jones and Dor- othy Piotrowski who are seen in the halls together? Now for the lastest dope .... Lois Schiel was very happy Tuesday when she returned to school. It was because she was wearing a sparkling diamond ring which she received from former grad, Jim Morlock. Do you blame her for the happy look? Students came to schdol Tuesday displaying their Christmas gifts. Dan Wisniewski and Harold Rogers both received wrist watches, Ed Lair was a lucky owner of a table model radio from his one and only, John Sinkovic received a gabardine jacket from his girl. George Fenedy is sure going in for the Texan dress look. He wore a sharp cowboy shirt with a wide cowboy belt during the past week. No wonder everyone seems to repeat hi-ho Silver eh, George? Our sympathies are extended to Norma Hall, freshman. it seems Norma, on her way home from a church council meeting, found herself flat on the icy pavement.

We are starting in this edi- tion, a feature serial written by a junior reporter, Tom Papps. There are four serials to this story and they will be printed weekly for four weeks, so be sure to get a Tattler each week and follow this thrilling mystery feature story! CEREAL 1 Stethily he approached. The wind howled in a low meloncholy, monotonous tone. Each tree limb 'seemed to be a giant's hand, crooked and grasping always looking for that clutching chance. The clouds were low and the chill ran through his body as if it were an electric current reaching to every membrane and penetrating the soul. Yes, alone he stood in the center of a cemetary, which is situated between two marshes, but the marshes aren't the only danger, there is the legend of Crooked Pine to be considered and what a legend it is. Suddenly something glitters as the moon looks through a crack in the wall of clouds. Itls a knife, itls raised, poised, down it comes slowly at first, gaining momentum, as it makes its deadly arch and then the air is pierced by a grotesque click, and a toenail drops to the ground. Don Parker gets up and says Well I better start finding a way to get out of here. But little does he know what lies be- hind the nearest gravestone, waiting for its chance to live up to its name as a vampire. As he Walks it gets up on one knee rises to its feet and we see it a girl vampire. After him she goes, slowly, stepping in step with him as to make as little noise as pos- sible. Now that her face is visible, with long pointed teeth, cruel mouth and pop-gun bangs, the fact is brought out that is none other than Babs Vamp Griswack. As the two walk quietly through the tombstone one intent on killing the other an unearthly screech is heard and Don Bauman, waving a small '72' poc- ket knife, jumps in front of him. His appearance is swartly and gray, his clothing blue, his hair brown his eyes bloodshot red and his nose purple. Parker is startled and loses his balance, just then Vamp Griswack dives. Parker falls in the quicksand and it looks blue for our hero. Now its up to his ankles soon it'1l be up to his knees. He can't get out and even if he could, Kar- loph Bauman and Vamp Griswack would get him. For the solution to this dillema read next weeks Tattler in this same slot. Will Don be killed? Will Man eating Karloph Bauman get Vamp Griswack? Will the Vamp kill Karloph7 Will Parker save himself? Will he marry Griswack and live happily ever after? Will Parker do my homework? Read next weeks Tattler for the thrilling answers. To be continued next week DISC NE WIES By Jukie Box Hello friends, this is Jukie Box again to tell you about the new record releases of the month, but be- fore I get started I would like to extend my best wishes for the new year, although I am a little la- ter...

JUKIE -1 1 ,- CAGE CORNER By Sports Editor Down in southern Ohio, two power- house basketball machines are roar- ing through opposition, piling up over 40 points every contest. One is the state champion Middletown Middies who are undefeated and still have all-state Shelby Linville at a forward post while Center George McChesney is another veteran from last year. And over at Hamilton Central Cath- olic, Coach Harold Mouch has coached his squad without a defeat thus far, including an overwhelming victory over Toledo Central's Irish, whom he formerly coachyed. X Y Predictions: Libbey over Scott-This will prob- ably be a close battle with each squad having about a 50-50 chance to come out victorious. However, we look for pivot-man Paul Geyer to be the decid- ing factor in a Cowboy win. The Bulldogs, sparked by Cottrill, may upset the applecart. ig: 4: .11 Central over DeVilbiss-Another game which stacks up as evensteven is this Irish-Tiger fracas, the desk giving the nod to the Irish because of better all-round team playy The Irish have any number of men who may pace the scoring but the Tigers have depended mostly on the brilliant Jim Maher to gain their victories. But this may be one of the many upsets we expect to see in the city this year. Woodward over Waite-Frankly, we look for the Polar Bears to subdue the East Siders by at least 10 points. The Bears not only have a big height advantage, but have a wealth of vet- eran material as compared to very few experienced Waite cagers. ln addition, the Bruins are playing on their home court. These three factors should add up to a decisive Woodward win although the Waiters are just the sort of a team which could spring an upset. Reserves Stop Norwalk By 24-22 On Dec. 27 Paced by .lack DeBord's 8 tallies and Ken l+lble's 6 markers, Wood- ward's once-beaten reserves eked out a 24-22 victory over Norwalk last December 27. The Bears trailed 20- 19 going into the final quarter, but Eble bagged a fielder and Jim Suszka dropped in three straight foul shots to give the Bruins the two point Udgc. Quarter scores found Woodward ahead 10-5 in the first canto, but be- hind at intermission, 15-12. Ryan and Meagrow of the Red Raiders were high for the night with 9 count- ers apiece. Rego, Henry Lead Frosh To 32-23 Win Over Scott The Woodward frosh won a hard fought contest, 32 to 23 over a stub- born Scott crew. The game was ac- tually closer than the score indicates as the Bruins scored 16 points in the final quarter to clinch victory after the first three cantos had been nip and tuck. Playing sharp and heads up ball, the frosh took advantage of every break to score. Bob Rego made some nice hook shots while Bill Henry let loose with a pair of buckets. Each had 12 markers at the end. Shayan and Atkins garnered seven apiece for the Bulldogs. THE WOODWARD TATTLER of L. x 4 a, .V . ' 4 4. -: 1'-'-' 5- , 6 . . x , . 1' . s . .Mr ut p I.

BRUINS SUBDUE NORWALK, 43-41, AND MONROE, 45-23, OVER HOLIDAY llecovering from an 1 early halftime deficit of 6 points, Woodward's Polar Bears defeat- ed the Norwalk quintet by a slim two point margin, 43 to 41. It was Butch Miller that sup- plied the game winning goal for the Bears after Eddie Lair had knotted the score at 41 all with a fielder and a pair of gratis throws. . ' Norwalk took an early lead of 10 to 8 the first quarter, and led most of the game, building their lead to 33 to 27 at the third quarters termi- nation. Bob Rutkowski led both teams at scoring with his 14 point total, fol- lowed closely by Forward Moore who sparked the Norwalk team with six baskets and one free throw for 13 tallies. Blue Streaks Hand Woodward 42-29 Loss Sandusky's Blue Streaks handed the Polar Bears their first out-of- town defeat Tuesday night when they beat the Bruins by the com- paratively large margin of 42 to 29. The Streaks led all the way, holding the first quarter lead of 12 to 6 and building their advantage to eight points at half time. The .Bears were slow to start and were able to count for only two buckets in each of the first quarters. Sandusky hit the hoop with most ac- curacy in the final canto when they acquired 14, eight of this total com- ing at the hands of Bob Barth a sub- stitute forward. The game is one that should be long talked of since the Blue Streaks were beaten by Norwalk 37-31, a team that the Bruins have previous- ly defeated before encountering the Sandusky aggregation. Boasting a team with a slightly better than six foot average, the Bears opposition did well to control the rebounds off both back boards, thus limiting them to mostly a single shot for the bucket. Center Nim- mons, although slightly shorter than many a team's towering center, did well to get his share of rebounds, and gave Woodward quite a bit of trouble as he hit his left hook shots to keep his team moving along. Ed Houghtaling and Ray Varner did well on their defensive guard shots, staying close to their man and in some instances stealing the ball and breaking down the fioor for a lay-up shot. High scoring honors were divided as Nimmons and Barth collected 10 markers, while their team mate Homberger and i Ray Varner for Woodward each accounted for nine points. Lightweights Annex Initial League Tilt Woodward's Polar cubs gained a 32-25 victory over the Scott reserves as Jack DeBord and Lehr Whitney paced the scoring with 10 and 9 points, respectively. A last quarter splurge that netted them 13 mark- ers enabled the Bears to win by a safe margin. High for the night was the Bulldog center, Oiler, who col- lected 11 points, while Forward Weyant amassed 10 tallies to tie De- Bord for second place honors. Another out - of - town foe, Monroe Central Catholic, fell victim to Woodward's cage crew as the Bears chalked up a de- cisive 45-23 triumph. The Bruins have now racked up four wins against one loss competing with out-of-town foes. From start to finish, the Blue and White held a commanding lead, pull- ing away to a 14-5 lead at the end of the first quarter and then increas- ing this advantage to 21-12 at half time. Monroe was able to garner only one point the entire third quarter as the Bears, led by Jack Smith, were mesh- ing 16, giving them a comfortable margin and enabling them to coast the last canto. All the Bears saw action, with 10 of the 12 players getting in the scoring column. Jack Smith dropped in 11 marks following closely by Guard Paul Miller, who swished the nets for 8 points, six points coming on long set shots. Center Basile tal- lied 9 points, the best performance for the Monroe lads. THIRD CANTO SCOTT RALLY EDGES BEARS After a furiously fought first half, Woodward's Polar Bears slowed down in the third quarter long enough for Scott to grab a commanding lead, and then failed to overcome the Bulldog margin with a desperate rally, finally bowing, 36-33, in a City League con- test three weeks ago. Both teams were in possession of the lead numerous times in the initial half with the first quarter 'ending finding the score knotted at eight all and the half terminating with the Bulldogs on the long end of a close 16-12 margin. However, Clark Cot- trill got hot in the fatal third period and netted eight markers on four pivot shots. Jack Smith and Bob Rutkowski led the Bruin rally in the final period but fell short as the Col- lingwood crew just managed to score often enough to keep ahead of the Bears. Inability to cash in on free throws probably cost the North Enders the game as they missed twelve gratis shots, making good only seven. Smith and Cottrill tied for scoring honors with 14 markers apiece, close- ly followed by Bill Geiger with 11 tallies and Bob Rutkowski with 10.

This tilt offers the Bruins the opportunity to jump out of the cellar and to start a drive up- hill back into the thick of the city title race. A loss to the Indians would all but ruin Woodward's championship hopes and would make it a tough job to finish as high as third place, which is the lowest position any Polar Bear squad has ever occupied. Bruins Have Height Edge One thing can be counted on before game time and that is that the Bears will boast a decided height advan- tage, Forwards Jack Smith and Bob Rutkowski and Center Dave Saygers all towering over the six foot mark. Forward Dan Seeman is the only East Sider who comes near six feet. Other Indian starters will probably include Center Ray Yenrick, Guards Ray Spencer and Bill Martin, and Forward Bobby Horst. Horst and Yenrick are average size but Martin argl Spencer are a little on the short si e. All Schools Still in Race Besides Woodward's three six-foot- ers, Ed Houghtaling, Ray Varner, George Fenady and Ed Lair are all in the race for the other two starting posts. Ready to go into the game at Coach Weis' call are Bob Aubry, Norm Crawford, Ted Rokicki, Butch Miller, and Jim Chubner, all juniors with the exception of Aubry. Due to the equal distribution of strength in the city this year, all schools still have an excellent chance to advance, even with more than one loss against them. This can easily be seen by observing the close scores of City League game thus far and the lickings Toledo teams have been absorbing over the holidays at the hands of out-of-town opposition. Bear Reserves Triumph In Overtime Battle, 26-25 Cracking through a. tight man-to- man defense, the Woodward cubs racked up another win at the ex- pense of Sandusky. Trailing 9-7 at the end of the first quarter and garnering only one point in the secondg the half ended 11-8 with the Polarites lagging. Then Sandusky got hot and at the end of the third quarter the score stood at 21-14. Woodward rallied desperately and with seconds to play the Blue Streaks led 24-22-. Then Dick Bieniek, a sub for Stewart, dropped one in to tie it up. A few seconds later Dick had a chance at the foul line but missed the winning point. In the overtime period, Ralph Stewart pushed one in and Wood- ward led the Blue Streaks for the first time. In the last hectic seconds, Sandusky's Cottery sank a foul shot but it only made the final count closer, the Bears winning, 26-25. PAT'S PATTER -I guess now that everybody' has pretty well corrected the error of writing 47 rather than 48, we can once again settle down and really start working. Well, at least we can stop writipg 171 31 Snow wonder they caught a cold. lt seems Jean Armstrong and Mary Lou Raymond had loads of fun play- ing in the snow during the vacation. All in all they built tlgree snowmen. S1 New Year's Eve really brought lots of fun for a few girls here at Woodward. Lucille Bubacz, Virgie Borzsiak, and Judy Gust had dates with Jack Mayer fScottJ, Ray Kos-- mider, and Paul Knapinski, respec- tively .... Nuff saidllk Defense stamps and bond sales dur- ing the month of December amounted to approximately S600. Keep it up, kids! PF PF iii Mrs. Marie Ersig was, as she says, Agreeably surprised and definitely pleased , when Dick Tiller, junior, mailed his auto-biography to her dur- ing the vacation. It seems that Dick forgot to turn in the assignment of the last day of school. That's hon- esty for you. 1: ,F Z2 Let's see now, is that an upward stroke or not? Ah, yes, vacations can make one a little rusty on their shorthand. Am Iqright, girls? Mrs. Mary O'Brien is really against gum-chewing in school. So much that she has made a New Year's resolution to penalize everyone sqhe sees with it. 711 . Joe Dence started the school year out right! Tuesday morning he left his home minus his wallet and keys and proceeded merrily on to school without realizing what he had done. That's all right, Joe, everyone had a good time NEW Yeaqifs Eve. Pat Sawyer is now wearing a ring on her third finger, left hand. A present from her steady, Davy Parks. Don't get excited, it's not an engage- ment ring, but a very beautiful zir- con. 13: :ga :iz While on the subject of rings, two other girls also received rings for Christmas. Marilyn Llewellyn was gifted with a birthstone ring from John Bradner, her steady sincethe seventh grade. Pat Korrell received a school ring from Ernie Simpson. Two cute couples-nice going.

VISITS WOODWARD FOR TEA Miss O'Brien, Scott's F.T.A. advisor handled the program at Woodward's F.T.A. tea which was held in the school library directly after school on Decem- ber 17 The program, which was direct- ed by three of Scott's F.T.A. members, administered an oath to all Woodward's members who then signed a scroll. E. L. Bowsher, superintendent of schools spoke on benefits of teaching and how the methods of teaching have changed. Following Mr. Bowshers speech, tea was served by Mrs. C. C. LaRue and Miss Amie Miller. All the food was pre- pared by Miss Ruth Lloyd's cooking classes. Miss Ethel Kerlin is in c h a r g e of Woodward's F'T.A. and Forrest Black is president. - SCHOOL FILLS CARE BOXES A collection for CARE boxes was taken December 17, 18, and 19 in homerooms. These boxes cost 8510.00 each and are delivered directly to persons addressed. Working on the committee were Mrs. Lucille Farrel, Miss Betty Nel- son, and Mrs. Mary O'Brien. The following rooms filled one box them- selvesgMiss Nelsonts first hour class Miss Marjorie Hamilton's first hour class, Miss Hazel Coy's home nurs- ing classesg and Miss Bertha Ver- milya's first hour class Total money collected was 35118.98 The collections daily were as follows: December 17, 396.543 December 18, 38.73, December 19, 31371. One care box weighs 2l'g ponnds and supplies 40,963 calories. Eleven Bruins S-core In Lightweight Win Eleven Bruins figured in the scor- ing as Woodward's lightweights an- nexed an easy 53-20 victory over Monroe Central Catholic of Michigan last Saturday. The Bear cubs spurt- ed for leads of 11-1, 28-2, 42-14, at the quarter poles. Coach Szelagowski cleared the bench as the score mount- ed with Ralph Stewart and Dick Bieniek leading the point parade with eight markers apiece. For- wards Kane and Swartz managed six tallies to lead the Monroe team. First Semester Driving Course Ends Something new was added to Woodward at the beginning of this school year. It was a driving class under the direction of Mrs. Mary Crouse. Last semester the course was only open to seniors because so many wanted to take this new subject. This semester the class will be open to juniors and seniors. In the last class there were 41 students. In the com- ing semester a class of about 45 to 48 students is expected. Students have been signing up for this course during the last semester. The students go out one day a week for actual driving and the remaining days are spent in classroom study. Nine students go out each day for actual driving. Students finishing the course will have approximately 5 to 6 hours of driving to their credit. OH! PROMISE ME Ding! Dong! Ding! You bet your hear- ing bells. But not because Pussy is in the well, but because one our senior staff members who took that fatal step on December 2, 1947. Best wishes for the years to come to Mrs. William Blowers. Maybe you remember her bet- ter as Doris Basilius. Doris is back in school to graduate in January. Dunsmore To Speak Philo Dunsmore, Assistant Superinten- dent of Schools and David Pugh, Super- intendent of High School instruction, will be the guest speakers at a teachers meeting which will be held Monday, January 19, at 3:00 P. M. in room 124. The discussion for this assembly will be on the curriculum ih all of the high schools. Plea to tlie teachers: Please, when you send out unsats, send them tu the right parents. When there is more than one student in school with the same last name, it's easy to get them confused. One teacher made this error, and the boy's parents were very much disappointed, because he had never before received an unsat, and did not deserve the one he un- intentionally got.

So did I, but I found out. Taking a notebook and pencil I staggered out of 119 and started through the hall, look- ing for my first victim, Then I saw one. She kept saying, Where is it? Where is it? That was Rita Palicki looking for the lost interview. While I looked at her I passed a hall guard, who insisted on seeing my hall pass. Since I didn't have one, I ran while Jean Cottrill came in hot pursuit. The chase ended when I ran in the room across the hall from 205. After this episode I heard a familiar saying again Where is it? Where is it? Only this time it was Dolly Roznowski looking for the lost Senior Sketches. One of these days we won't make the deadline. A deadline is a deceased king of the cat family.5 Irene Stajsczak and Dot Piotrowski greeted me with their pepsin smiles. They sell you your tickets in case you didn't know. Today's haul was 60 bucks. Just think, 30 a piece. My n e x t interviewee was Morris Reichlen, a hall guard who guarded the halls well, by sleeping at his post. Have you ever wondered who stacks the milk bottles up in the case so you can pull the bottom one out and let them fall? Well it's a fellow who gave his name as Sunfish. He's been piling bottles for nigh onto 8 yars, so with men who know milk bottles best, it's Pages' two to twain.tFooled you didn't I?

After speak- ing to him l went down by the office to hear the groans of the tardy pupils. First to file out was Sally Radzinskig she was late. Next James Kowalski, who had taken a book report down. Following James came Jean Studdard, trying to get a building permit. Faculty Makes Debut Pat Szachta. Joyce Williams and Jerry West were the next people I met. Who came next? Well it was Lincoln C.

Don had a gun and Will- iam had ameat block. They had made them in wood shop. I didn't stay to talk to them long. So with Doris Urban's paper full of names and Alice Horton's pencil down to the eraser, I brought my weary bones back to write this.

RADIO STUDENTS I TOUR STATION During the iirst semester of school the Board of Education has been building a new radio station situated on the third floor of McKinley School, which is located on Upton and Cen- tral Avenues. An amount of fiS25,00l' or more has already been spent to build this project. This station, to be called W.T.D.S., meaning Toledo District of' Schools. will be in operation during the second semester. Miss Dorothy Kellorf in- vited advanced radio pupils of Wood- ward High School, who will be on the staff of this new radio station, to visit it last Tuesday, January 12. Advanced pupils of radio, who wanted to attend this school for fur- ther training, had to take a test last year in order to participate in this program. Its purpose is to acquaint the pupils with- the fundamentals of radio, engineering, and announcing. Stu- dents themselves will write and pro- duce the scripts.. Two hours of each day will be spent there by every pupil taking this course. They will receive two credits for their work. The station will supposedly be in operation from nine in the morning till three in the afternoon. All schools will be represented. It will take the place of the Warren Radio Shop at Warren School, which produces scrint for the program, What's This World Coming To'! , which was produced every Saturday afternoon. iMitchell Sahadi was a member of the Warren Radio Shop. Others who visited besides Mitchell were: La- Verne Steffan, Ray Barker, Ronnie Brennamen, Jerry llokrywka, John Sexton, and Mike Zydel. Society Accepts Member Carol McNutt, a senior was recently elected to membership in the Wood- ward National Honor Society having a scholastic index of 3.50.

Woodward Students Questioned On Exams Question of the month is Are you going to study for exams ? The Tattler Staff thought it would be in- teresting to ask just that question of several different people in Woodward. The result was surprising and inter- esting. We'll show you just what we mean. 'Here are the 'statements of 12 students: Francis Tcgtmeyer- Yes, I am going to study because I need all the information I can get. Also I have to help Bud White. This may surprise you but Ralph Gardner came out with a brilliant statement, Dub, who me? Now we come to the students who are consid- ered the brains of Woodward: Dor- othy Stevens, Certainly, where would I be if l didn't? Peggy Hartz, I always study for them because so far I've gotten good grades but only through studying! Then there's the student who gives a long drawn out speech when asked such a question. Such is the case with Jean Sloan: she opened her mouth and said Natch! MANY DIFFERENT ANGLES There are seine students who have a completely different angle on study- ing for exams. Who else but Bud White could come up with a state- ment like this, I think boys and girls should co-operate evenings and study together. You get more done that way! fHa, ha.l Here is the optimist who never worries about exams. Jerrie West, I haven't done anything all year so I think it's too late to start now! Sally Radzinski said, I fooled around all year, but when it comes to exams, l'm really going to study. Joyce Cottrell, a hall guard on sec- ond fioor first hour, when asked said. That's what I'm doing right now! She's really going all out. Ambitious, this is the -only word I can think of in regard to the follow- ing two people. Wilma Schuldt, t'I'll study a little but not much! Jerry Pokrywka, No, I never do! Last but not least is Alice Warr who came out with, Well, I'd better study! We hope we have showed you what we mean by 'surprising and interest- inff. What are you going to do? Study, we hope! COUNCIL ATTENDS DISTRICT MEETING The Toledo District Student Coun- cil meeting was held at Whitney Vo- cational high school on January 13 at 2:00. Miss Wooden, principal of Whitney, welcomed the delegates from the various schools. A report was given by DeVilbiss high school on the removal of the amusement tax from school affairs. Then followed a prolonged discussion on sending six delegates to the Na- tional Meeting of Student Councils in June. It was decided that expenses would be payed for this trip. The next District Councilmeeting will be at Clay high school in February. Woodward sent three Student Council members to this meeting. They were Joyce Young, Helen Marie Majka and John Sinkovic. Mrs. Lu- cille Farrell, advisor, accompanied the group. Due to the resignation of Cather- ine Colbe, sophomore member of the Woodward Student Council, the Council voted Norma Dutterrer, who was runner up, to take ber place. iHall To visitstate Capitol For Finals When Nancy Everyingham withdrew from the Prince of Peace contest, be- cause of illness, her position as local winner was taken over by Philip Hall. Since that time Philip has won the si.l- ver medal in the county contest and the district contest. Philip, along with twenty other pu- pils from Northwestern Ohio, will go to Columbus Sunday, Januaryf18, to com- pete in the state finals. There will be 6 students chosen from this group as the finalist . First prize will be a 4 year scholarship and 5200. Secand prize will be a two year scholarship and S100. A one year scholarship and S50 will be awarded to the third place winner. Each of the other three finalists will receive 525. MARCH OF DIMES DRIVE SCHEDULED FOR JANUARY 26 The annual March of Dimes drive begins this week in the city, while the Woodward drive -is set for Monday, January 26. Collections will be taken in first hour classes with each student expected to contribute at least ten cents. ' li ' - The Kwianis Club has taken over the March of Dimes booth on Huron and Adams Streets, and passersby will recognize the faces of Charles C. LaRue giving his time to this worthy cause. His partner is Gorden Jeffreys, clerk of courts. They will have charge of the booth on three consecutive Thursdays: namely, the 15, 22, and 29 from 2 to 2:30. DRIVING CLASS VIEWS SLIDES A series of lectures and slides, 'given and shown by state patrolman Rohrs, came to a climax today during fourth hour. Students who were to drive on these days were kept in to hear these lectures. In order to become a licensed driver: driving students are required to attend' three hours of lectures given by the state. Last Friday, January 9, was fthe first of these lectures in which Patrolman Rohrs lectured on the hazards of driv- ing. Students were also questioned on state laws regarding signs, speed limits, and etc. The second of these lectures was held Monday, January 12. Patrolman Rohrs stressed the need for more high- way patrolman, and the fact that there is more loose driving since the war and more accidents. The essential parts of the car were also shown. Speech Classes To Entertain Providing the entertainment for Wat- son Welever's Orientation classes will be students in Mrs. Dorothy Matheny's first, third, and sixth hour classes. This event will take place in the little gym Wednesday, January 21. Justine DuPre is chairman of the first hour class, Joan Clark the third, and Edward Marks the sixth. The entertainment will consist of speeches, music, and dancing. Mrs. Mary Crouse's driving class were lucky to have Roman Scherer devote some of his time to them to explain the mechanism ot' an auto- mobile. PK Pk lk Mary Helen Jones gave a report on the Romans during the F.-,sees Club on-ating yesterday. From The Desk . . . FTER the gay festivities of the holiday season I have come to an end, we are faced with a new year, in which the future looms bright before us. It is up to us, as individuals, to make that future a productive oneg one that will benefit us in the years to come. As we change the number seven to eight in writ- ing the date, we should also change our habits from good to better. The door of opportunity is open a little wider each year, and each year we must strive to attain a goal better than that 01 the year before. In so doing, we can use this opportu- ity to our advantage. Right now is the time to pre- pare for the future while still in a position to do so. We should get all we can out ot' our high school education and work to make this education pay dividends. With the New Year, let us all resolve to work a little harder and exert a little more energy in all our attempts, whether scholastic or social. The Tat- tler Staff has made one resolution it intends to keep. That is to work a little harder and produce a paper that will surpass all past publications. HE situation is, to say the least, becoming very alarming. We mean the number of stu- dents walking about the halls every first hour. To a visitor entering the school, the halls would seem more like Grand Central Station than the corridors of a high school. In high scheol the stu- dents are supposed to know that the halls were not built as loitering or strolling places, and the place for every one of us is in our first hour class. True! occasions will arise when you'll be out in the halls,but limit your errands to the miuimum of time and return to class as quickly as possible. This will help out halls to look as they should and keep more students out of the deans' offices. IRST it was l5c, then 20c, now itls 25c. What's all this about? Well, it concerns the price of the dances after basketball games. For 35c, you can see two games packed full of ex- citement and action. With the Woodward Dance Band supplying the music and only an hour of danc- ing these dances cost almost as much. If the Polish Literary Society, who sponsors these dances, will lower their prices they will find they are losing no money and will have a much better attendance. Formerly clubs could sponsor after game dances for 150 and I'm sure it can be done now. Let's keep inflation down in school, at least. Hounds Are On The Chase Crawling slowly to school, Bill 'tgo getum Welles just about opens his big blue eyes when he reaches the portals of Woodward High. Upon opening the door, he realizes something must be wrong-it's quite! Something drastic must have hap- pened, because the only thing Bill can see through his blood shot eyes are girls. Suddenly Bonnie Skaff spies Bill and yells, a man. With 20 girls behind him, he gallops down the hall to see---30 girls coming the other way. In the nick of time a frail, thin, arm reaches from a locker and pulls him into safety. Bill immediatly recognizes Put Put. Waiting tensly, the brave males hear the ive mi- nute bell which will call off the hounds-oops girls. The boys will be safe for a while anyway. But, upon slouching to their classrooms it is discovered that all the intelligent?male members of the teaching staff are missing. Well, we will forgive the anxious women.

When what does he find but a dead body.What a place for a dead body, you'd think murderer's would at least throw it in the river instead of in the cemetary. On closer exam- ination the fact is brought out that the corpse is Dick Perry. Obviously a suicide, thinks Parker as he looks at 47 bullet wounds, lbuck shots! and 14 knife stabs. Just as he is about to leave he notices that it isn't Perry after all, it's Norman Tobey. So he picks up the body and starts to take it with him to the police station when all of a sudden a crooked looking character comes up behind him looks in his eyes and lovingly says, Hi Ya Big Boy, put up your hands and Honey Stickroth won't shoot you. So you decided to kill him did you, well I caught you in the act. Then turning away she calls, Come on Gun Moll Mattes, I've got two men. One for you and one for me. The quiet one is yours.

Stickroth- Someone stole my two way stretch girdle that night. Judge Stickroth shouts, Guilty or not guilty. Parker said, I want a fair trial. Stickroth says, Quit changing the subject, I find you guilty of Z degree murder. Hanging on the 24 and the electric chair on the 25th of the month are in store for you. Will Stickroth change her decision? Will Parker die? Will they find the girdle? Will Perry be in this story again? Is Tobey a suicide? Will Parker do my homework?

' .r WOODWARD STOPS WAITE FOR FIRST Sobecki Rolls 561 As Amerks Triumph Smashing the tenpins in true Woodward American bowlers' fash- ion, the Bruins grabbed three more games at the expense of the Central Irish. By virtue of this three game triumph, the Blue and White keg- lers have now taken a comfortable lead over the second place Macomber five. As usual, Woodward's contribution to the bowling world, Captain Mel- Sobecki, again led the boys home to victory. Sobecki started off with a poor 131 but came back to blast the wood for scores of 215 in his second and third games, giving him the high total of 561. Following Sobecki was teammate Ed Siminiak with a 488. Dick Heban's 203 single game and 507 three game total was the best performance for the Cherry Street bowlers. Second best effort for the Irish was turned in by Bud Hanken- hof with a three game total of 467. Woodward's. Nationals, however, didn't fare so well as the Central Irish swept three decisive triumphs from the Bears. Bob Filipiak, roll- ing games of 184-171-193 for a total of 548, was the top showing for the Irish. The best team total for a single game compiled by the Bears was 725, still 23 pins shy of the Red and Gray's low game total. Top scorer for the Bruins were turned in by the Rose brothers, Gene and Glen, on scores of 461 and 447, respectively. Gene also had the high single game, rolling a 173. In last week's competition, the Amerks swept three games from the Waite Indians, paced by Mel So- hecki's 534. Glen Rose, of the Woodward Na- tionals, led the way to a two out of three advantage last week from the Macomber keglers, as he racked up an even 500 total. Bear Cubs Beat Waite For Second Loop Win Holding their East Side opponents to a 11 point deficit at the halftime, Woodward's Lightweights defeated the Indians of Waite by a nine point advantage, 33 to 24. Led by Jack DeBord and Ralph Stewart who each connected for a pair of goals the first canto, the Polar Bear Cubs built their lead that lasted the entire contest. Guarding their men closely, in a stiff man-to-man defense, the Wood- ward team kept the Indians at a comparatively safe distance away from the bucket and the deuce of points that accompanies the goals. Bob Griffin, Waite's sub-center, did a good job in getting more than his share of rebounds, although the Waites were unable to part the net on most of their shots. Jack DeBord paced the victors with four goals and a pair of free throws for 10 points. Jim Suska and Ralplh Stewart accounted for 8 each of t e Polar Bears' total. For Waite, Bob Griffin was high as he was able to connect for 7 tallies. We see that the'gir1s have used their better judgement lately and have put the towels away after taking showers. The girls realize that an orderly, clean shower makes a better impression on visitors. BEARS INVADE LIBBEY COURT I TO MEET LAST-PLACE COWBOYS X . .....,. .... , . A . so s rf., - t U x , . 5, JACK SMITH With an eye toward improv- ing their position in the city title race, . Woodward's Polar Bears tangle with Libbey's luck- less Cowboys tonight at the South Side court. Macomber's second place Craftsmen take on DeVilbiss at the Upton Avenue stronghold and Central travels to Scott in other league frays tonight, while Scott invades Macomber's gym and Libbey tackles Waite on the East Side court in games tomorrow night. If the Bruins can get by the Cowboys, they are assured. of no worse than fifth place in the standings with a chance to go higher, depending on the out- comes of the games tonight and tomorrow. For example, if Cen- tral's Irish are upset by Scott the Bears can go into a tie with Central for fourth place. There also is a possibility of Wood- ward gaining a tie for the third spot in the league standings if Macomber drops both its week- end games and the Bulldogs stop Central. League-leading DeVilbiss' clash with Macomber looms as an important indication of how the title chase will go, because a Tiger victory would mean that the Upton crew has conquered all league opposition with the exception of Scott. In case of a Mech win, the Craftsmen could go into a deadlock for the league lead by bumping Scott tomorrow night. Cowboys Still Seeking First League Win Libbey's golden Cowboys have encountered plenty of opposition in the league thus far, dropping four straight contests, and will be primed for an all out effort against the Blue and White. To back up this effort, the South Enders will send high scoring Center Red Geyer along with their tricky guards, Jerry Palmer and Bobby Sarchiz. Forwards Timm and Young com- plete the Libbey lineu . Geyer is a big redliheaded cager, up from last year's lightweights, who, combined with Sarchiz and Palmer, handle. g should give the Bears all they can Bear Starting Lineup Uncertain When big Jack Smith, the Bruins' chief offensive threat, failed to start the Waite game Coach Wilson Weis indicated that none of his first string cagers can be sure of their jobs. However, Smith and Bob Rutkowski should occupy the forward posts with junior Norm Crawford filling the ivot spot. As has been the case most of the season, Weis' starting guardjs are un- known, although Ed Houghtaling and Jim Chubner seem to have the inside track. Other potential starting guards are Ray Varner and Butch Miller, while Dave Saygers, Ed Lair, George Fenady, Bob Aubry and Ted Rokicki form the reserve corps. Freshmen Cage Squad Drops First Contest Woodward's freshmen bowed de- cisively to a rugged Waite quintet, 32 to 20. The Indians, paced by Zieroff, held a commanding lead throughout the contest and were al- most impregnable on defense. Hobbs, a substitute forward, was the big gun for Woodward with 11 points. The game being rough all the way, it reached its climax when Waite's Gunner was ejected for brawling with Woodward's center, Kwiatkow- ski. The blue and wh.ite made 335 per cent of their charity throws, while Waite made 4 out of 15. FEDERATION LOOP COMMENCES SEASON Woodward High School's Federa- tion basketball aggre ation opened this year's season witI1 a 28 to 23 victory over Waite last week Thurs- day in the Safety Building gym. This season should prove to be quite a tough one for the team, with all of the opposition set on beating them, since last year's quintet ca - tured the pinnacle position in tlile league standings. llud Kesling and Dick Shuff led the team to the victory with 8 and 6 points respectively. All the city high schools are again entered in the league this year, which LEAGUE WIN KRUTKOWSKI, sMrrH LEAD BEAR RALLY IN 35-26 VICTORY Six footers Jack Smith and Bob Rutkowski ignited a Wood- ward uprising in the final quar- ter last Friday which gave the Bears a substantial 35-26 vic- tory over Waite's hard-fighting Indians. The win, Woodward's first as against two defeats in the City League, was clinched in the middle of the last quarter after a pair of fielders each by Rutkowski and Smith. Leading only 21-19 at the termination of the third quarter, the Polar Bears started to move when Smith was finally inserted into the game with the third period practically over. Bears Lead Most of Game Guard Bill Martin looped in a foul shot to start the night's scoring but after that Woodward led all the way, except for a few brief seconds at the start of the second quarter. Norm Crawford scored a fielder after Mar- t1n's foul shot and the Bears went on to leads of 3-1, 5-1, 5-3, 7-3, 7-5, and finally 7-6 at the quarter's end. Seeman connected for the Indians at the second period's start but Ed Houghtafing swished three straight set shots to give Woodward a 13-8 margin which it maintained up until intermission. Woodward led, 16-11, at halftime. Martin and Jim Nauman netted fielders to start off the second half to narrow the Bruin lead to one point, and the East Siders managed to tie the score, 19-19, late in the quarter but Rutkowski dropped in a pair of gratis throws to put the Bears aheadat the period's end. Rutkowski took scoring honors with 11 markers while Houghtaling with 9 tallies and Martin with 7 points were close behind. Woodward FG. FT. T.

Riverside Plans Tea It is with a great deal of pleasure that, this is the way a letter from Riverside hospital read to each mem- ber the offemine half of Woodward's senior class. In this letter Fred J. Pick- nell, director of Riverside, announced the plans for a tea Saturday, January 17, 1948, at 2:00 p.m. at the New Nurses Home located at 1541 Summit Street. Each year such a social get-together is planned to acquaint prospective stu- dent nurses all senior high school girlsi with the duties of this profession. A catalog telling of the history of the hospital since it's establishment in 1883 and also the choice of subject material for the three year training accompanied the letter. There is such a great demand for nurses that this tea might prove inter- esting for any senior girl who has not quite decided what to do after graduat- ing.

A A JUKE BOX COMMI'l'l'EE 'REPORTER ToURs SHOPS FOR NEWS Accmplishment of the shops, as the first semester draws to a close, are de' serving of reconition by the school. Joy E. Mohrhardt's industrial survey class' es are beginning wood and electrical project. The classes' aim to get the boys acquainted and interested insome kind of work so he can continue in that line of shop work after he is through school- A few of the projects his classes have completed so far this year are magazine racks, table, lamps, and ashtrays. The boys also help in doing repair work whenever a techer or the school desired it. S.B. Crouse's in woodshop have com- pleted some fine projects, also. The boys woodshop ranged from table to desk' and shelves. Coffee tables and book- shelves were made by a number of boys. Joe Stobinski's print shop students are 'the boys who handle the printing of the Tattler each week. They also make the diplomas, print tests and do various types of work for the Board of Education. Printing of the annual yearbook is also taken care of by these classes. ' Lee Rynderls electricity classes have taken part in B and C schedules by putting up the microphones and taking charge of the lights and noon movies. These do repair work for teachers and the school. Roman Scherer's auto mechanic classes have repaired the cars of teachers and those belonging to mem- bers of the classes. As we get to the last of shops we come to Paul O. Thomae's machjne shop classes. Mr. Thomae and his boys are doing secret definitely underground, work and does not care to disclose the nature of it because it is important as that of the Atomic Bomb. Of course if you would like to know what each class has accomplished, you need a secret pass word to get into the room, and after that you still would be in the dark as to the nature of the work. Just the same it sounds interesting, in fact, we might even look into it. Radio Stations Aided By Editors Sport editors of the seven respective high schools are, this season. playin an important part in supplying the sport departments ofthe Toledo radio stations with interesting facts concerning high schools basketball competion. After each Home game, the sports editor of the home team telephones to WSPD the results of the game and the high scorer of each team. This Informa- tion is then used by the stationts sports commentator, Bob Evans, on his even- ing sporting broadcast at 11:30 P.M. Once a week the school sports editor mails in the results of home games to station WTOL for their weekly broad- casts concerning igh school basketball. As a reward for this service, WSPD has promised a prize for the best cover- age ofthe news by a high school sports editor This reward will robabl be - P Y presented at a banquet in honor of the. sport departments of the seven high schools.

Membership Drive On At Swing Inn Canteen A new membership drive is now in full swing at the teen age canteen lo- cated on Huron Street.

Mr. Pugh suggested that all courses in high schools e examined and re-examined in order to minimize some subjects and put in or take out others. His speech went on further to suggest that a organization of a new committee be made up of teachers who will represent every department in To- ledo high schools. The ob'ect of this committee is to study and make any changes that are needed in the high school curriculm. C. C. LaRue is planning to hold a meet- ing of all Woodward teachers on Janu- ary 30, at which time they will discuss and elect one or two faculty members to represent Woodward on the newly or- ganized committee.

She was well liked by everyone. Patricia was the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Stanley Pawelec of 911 Bricker Street, and was the sister of Barbara, who is now enrolled at Central Cath- olic High School. Patricia passed away after an illness of three weeks at St. Vincent's Hospital.

CLUB PLANS WORK Always on the job and ready to help really describes our Red Cross. A recent letter received by Mrs. Mary O Brein, tells of the joys ex- pressed by the children in the Ozarks when they received clothing from Woodward. Besides this work, the club has been making scrap books and plans to make bed clothes for doll beds to be sent to the Day Nur- sery near the Board of Education, THE WOODWARD TATTLER The Tattler staff, on behalf of the entire student body and faculty, wish to express their deepest sympathies to Maexbell and igllztidine Jelks on the recent death of their at er. An active member of the Board of Educa- tion was lowered to his final resting place Monday. The late Fred Lewis occupied the position of attendance officer in the Wood- ward district since the building was comple- in 1928. Miss Amie Miller and Clyde Meek attended the funeral. The Tattler Staff, on behalf of the entire student body and faculty, wishes to express its deepest sympathies to Joyce Hudnal on the recent death of her father. From The Desk . . . AVE you ever wondered how Woodward's Tattler came to bc? Many students ask this question when they enter Woodward as fresh- men. The Tattler was founded about 30 years ago in the old Woodward Technical Building by Hugh Montgomery. The newspaper was started to arouse interest in printing. After it's birth in the print shop the newspaper had to be named. Students submit- ted different titles for it and the name Tattler was finally chosen. After several years the English department took over the job of gathering and reporting the news. The print shop devoted all their time to printing the newspaper. These two departments combined have given us the Woodward Tattler of today. NLIKE others, Woodward will hold its annual Extravaganza this spring. Since a program of this type would take much time, work, and ex- perience, it would be almost impossible for the new advisor of the Dramatic Club, Mrs. Van Vranken, to take over such a big responsibility. Mrs. Van Vranken replaced Mrs. C. C. LaRue as the advisor to the Dramatic Club this year. Other public high schools in Toledo are planning some sort of musical program to present to the public this spring. Woodward has just as much talent, if not more, as any other high school. There is no reason why Woodward shouldn't display her talent along with the rest. This problem could easily be solved if one or more teachers would take enough interest in this difficult situation and be willing to take over the job of presenting an Extravaganza. If a member of the faculty would take on this task, I am sure he would receive the full co-operation of the students, for they are really willing to work for an Extravaganza. HAD alwavs been proud to point out that there were no sororities at Woodward. Now I am aware that sororities are slowly, but surely, infiltrating into our sccial life. Believe me, soror- ities are not desirable in high school. The state realizes this too, for there is a state law existing in Ohio that prohibits sororities and fraternities in high schools. Why am I against sororities? Because they can very easily disrupt the social activities of a school. True, they're established to advance social life- - - but for only the few that belong. In high school, you have to think of 1,600 pupil and not a select few. The few that belong to these sororities, or cliques. become, quite often, so wrapped up in their club that they will not attend any function that is not associated with their sorority. This has a definite effect, and not a good one, on all the social events in a high school. Another disliked feature of these snobbish clans, is their influence on the girls not belonging to them. Many girls would give their right arms, to use a phrase, to get into a sorority, If they are not pled- ged into one, they go around sporting brand new inferiority complexes. It's a shame that sororities mean that much to some girls, but they do and you can't overlook that fact. How do I know that there are sororities at Wood- ward? Several weeks ago I bluntly asked some girls if they belonged to sororities. Their answers were very definite yeses. I asked them if they had Greek letters for their name. More yeses greeted this query. I then retalliated by asking the pur- pose of their sorority. They replied it was for the advancement of their social life. Their social life and, believe me, they mean theirs and not yours. These are the existing facts at Woodward. Let's put a stop to these selfish, and rather snobbish cliques before they get a grip on Woodward as they have on DeVilbiss. ORTHY of our consideration is the annual March of Dimes which takes place on January 29. This work of President Roosevelt is being carried on to benefit the little children stricken with the dread disease of infantile paraly- Leon's Earsays 222235 Warning: Persons reading this column, and hav- en 't any strong humor, are advised to have a box of bicarbonate handy. There are only three days left to study for exams. So better get busy kids, and work like beavers over the week end. Majorette of 45 , Elaine Lykowski, known by the name of Inky , has recently became betrothed to Al Pirczynski. Anniversaries: Charlotte Schaub and Bill Haney celebrated thier first year of going steady todayg Corrine Allen and former Polar Bear, Red McMillen have been going together for a month. Due to the exams, andatwo day vacation next week, no Tattler will be published, until the week of February 6th.Although it is a bit too early, here's a little advertisement--If you like to dance polkas, then be sure to attend the Polish Lit's Polka Frolic, on the 29 of this month. A birthday wish is extended to a Cantralite Duane Spain. He celebrates his eighteenth birthday on January 30. Many happy returns of the day, Duane. ' Your name doesnlt appear in the Tattler? Don't blame anyone but yourself if it doesn't. For all you have to do is to get some gossip about yourself and drop it in the Tattler box and boom--- your name will be published. Mary Jane Pacholak just can't forget her Christ- mas vacation even though it happened so long ---long--- ago. It was because her beau, Carl Stover was home on leave. Question of the week: Will Cupcake discover Sonny Brewnski's highly guarded secret?? Time will tell. Glancing through the senior ink schedules, I found Dick Easton was born during the fifteenth monthg Georgette Mickolak during the twenty-first monthg and Dick Tiller came into the world during the seventeenth month. This would make headlines f or Believe It or Not by Ripley if it really hap pened. . Senior girls were the receivers of applicant let- ters that stated that there is a great shortage of nurses. Girls who wish to become student nurses are to fill the applicant out and send it to River- side Hospital. Many of our girls are responding to the letters. I Contribute to the March of Dimes. Give as much as you can toward this dreaded disease. Someone by the name of Wondering would like to know what's Paul Neift's main attraction at the Meyer's house: Patsy Meyers or her sister, Jo-Ann? What's the answer Paul? Bonnie Schassburger and Josephine Price seem to be interested in only Scott boys. QWith a few exceptionslj Servicemen who would like to hear from the kids here at school are: Donald A. Gorsuch A. S. 993-81-56 U. S. Naval Training Center Co. 151, Great Lakes, Illinois Glenn Duane Parkinson A. S. 993-77-02 Co. 151 U. S. Naval Training Center Great Lakes, Illinois sis. Surely, if we had the opportunity to help an in- valid to walk again we would not hesitate a min- ute. Now laced before us is this opportunity to help those cliildren lead a happy life and walk again as other normal children. Let us not hesitate to make our contribution to the March of Dimes a generous one. We shall re- ceive in return the satisfaction of knowing that our donation is being given the hospitals and clinics to supports this humanitarian and beneficial work. He Was Shot By A Woman Cuz I Smell Powder CEREAL 3 Now that he's out of danger from being imprison ed, Don Parker is walking merrily down the halls of Woodward when out of the blue he sees an old famliar face, It's none other than Clyde Meek. As it is customary Don got down on his knees and said Allahl', Allah! Allal1l', rip! If you're wonder- ing about the rip , it's his pants. Now what will he do it's 8'55 and there's no time to trouserize. Only five minutes to do something. He backs away toward the wall - -- inches along sideways till he meets the stair - - - crash - - - he didn't see the - - - again down the hall he inches until he comes to the gym. He rares across the hall, opens the right door, goes in in and looks for his gym shorts. Now he remembers that he took em home to Washington. Again he inches sideway along the hall - -up the stairs -- sideways down the hall when he meets Phyllis Losak selling tickets. After a long conver- se tion he finally gets out ofthe garbage can and runs madly down the stairs to Mrs. Bowyer, a sewing class where Mildred Bukowski accepts the task of stiching his pants. Now he's behind a screen. The Woodward band under the direction of Mr. Sorton plays A Pretty Girl. Will Milly sew his pants on time? Will Parker get them back? Will Phyllis sell her tickets? Will Don be late? Will Mr. Meek be mad? Are his gym trunks clean? Read next weeks Tattler for the ans- wers to this dillema. - Snoopy's Q's Q-Do you approve of having Woodward's basket- ball games played in the Sports Arena or on the home door of either school? Bob Panos-Fresh. - Atthe S p o r t s Arena, because it is large and more people can see the games . GloriaZaborowski---Senior. At the Sports Arena since it is larger, more peo- ple will attend the games. James Lee---Jr. On the home floor, I don't like the Sports Arena for high school games. Marcella Kledzid--Jr. The home fioor would be better because it' closer to the students homc and the team would play better. I I Kenny La Fountian---Senior. ltd rather see them on the home floor because the boys have more confidence on their own floor and the arena is too large. Dorothy Piotrowski---Soph. . It would be better for the team if they played on the home fioor because they are better accustomed to the surroundings. A Don Abbajay--Jr. U In the Sports Arena because the game will be a triple header and you'll be able to see all the schools in one night and the Sports Arena will hold all the people.

Personal Problems Mrs. KuKu Komments Dear Mrs. Kuku, It's been rumored that one of Miss Boyle's sixth hour biology student struck gold. Is this true and who is this luckey gold digger ? Q Douggie Dou ie, D315-u misggderstood the rumour that concerns the gold digger , who was Bob Mason. The only gold he has ever had is his gold fishes. Sorry, Mrs. Kuku i,.....-.--1- Dear Mrs. Kuku, l . Could you please get in touch with the noon movie operators and tell them that they should finish Wlth weekly films on Fridays, because if they carry the, ending till the following Monday, I can't enjoy the. week end because the climax always has me worried F. L. Jr. Dear Jr. , You poor kid, you no doubt are getting all ner- vous and this in turn probably keeps you awake over the weekend, just because the movie operators don't conclude the reels on Fridays. I suggest that you discontinue eating your lunch 1n the auditorium. Pleasant week ends, Mrs. Kuku THE WOODWARD TATTLER HIGH SCHOOLS IN TRIPLE HEADER AT ARENA TONIGHT NVoodward's luckless I? o l a r Bears. who seem to have devel- oped an undesirable habit of los- ing close basketball games, jour- ney over the Maumee River to the Sports Arena tonight to hook up with Macomber's Craftsmen in a game that will start a night of action in which six Toledo high schools will participate. After the 7:00 Mech-Bear tilt, Central will match cage tricks with NVa.ite at 8:15 and the finale at 9:30 of- fers DeVilbiss' league leaders against Scott's ambitious Bull- dogs. This gala three-game af- fair will mark the close of the City Iieague's first round with Libbey the only team already completing its first round sched- ule. Juniors Help Weis Although Coach 'Weis watched his team drop two straight games by the same slim margin of two points, it seems hc has discovered two dangerous scoring threats in juniors Norm Crawford and Ted Rokicki who took turns in lead- ing the Bear scoring in the recent losses. Added to the tallying po- tentialities of Center Jack Smith, Forward Bob Rutkowski, and on their nearest competitor. This tilt will also offer a fine individual contest between the opposing een- ters, Clark Cottrill and Jim Brubaker with a total of 43 points is Paul King while Center Kenny tluard Ed lloughtaling, Crawford and Rokicki' have rounded the team into a high-scoring aggrega- tion which could hit top scoring production tonight. tluard Ray Varner is Weis' ace in the hole while George Fcnady. lid llair. Bob Aubry, Dave Say- gers. Butch Miller, and -lim Chub- ner form the reserve corps. Miller Is Only Mech Vet f luard Denny Miller is thc only veteran the Craftsmen can boast of but the Monroe Streetcrs have gained a tie for second place in the league with a team composed mostly of last year's fine Light- weight squad. The other guard BEARS LOSE IN CLOSE CONTEST Woodward 's Polar Bears trailed Libbey practically the entire game last l riday and when the fray ended they still were trailing as they dropped their third league game, 50-48. It was a field goal by substitute forward Jim Root which spelled the Bruins? doom, Root connecting with a minute to go and the score tied at 48 all. Scoring Duel Devel0DS Center Red Geyer and Guard Bobby Sarchiz hooked up in a scoring duel with the Bears' Ted Rokicki and Bob Rutkowski and when the smoke had cleared it was the 31 points collected by the two Cow- boys which edged out the best efforts of Rokicki and Rutkowski and e n a bled the South Siders to gain the final verdict. First quar- ter action found Rutkow- ski and Ro- kicki tallying 9 markers be- tween them but the only other Bear point was a foul shot by Norm Craw- ford and the Cowboys zoomed to a 16-10 first period margin. Ed Houghtaling chipped in with two baskets in the second canto and the Bruin scoring machine worked smoothly as they pulled up to a slim 25-28 deficit at the halfp Then, in the third quarter, Ray Varner got hot and poured in a couple of quick fielders and Wood- ward narrowed the Libbey lead to 36-38 at the third quarter's end. Midway of the fourth period, the Bears managed to grab the lead briefly but the Cowboys spurted again and it was anybody's ball game. Varner stole the ball twice in the final 60 seconds but failed both times in his bid for the tying basket. Geyer led the scoring with 16 points with Sarchiz second at 15 markers, and Rokicki and Rutkowski tied at 14 points. Tiller Leads School In Semester Gym Tests Dick Tiller, junior, led thc school in thc semester gym tests with 469 points out of a possible Goo. These tests are comprised of 100 yd. dash, broad jump, 20 ft. rope climb, basketball dribble, chins, and potato race.

We wish to thank the gym instruc- tors, Miss Catherine McClure and Mrs. Elizabeth Ollendorf, for their splendid cooperation with supplying the material for this' column. Lightweights Annex ' Another Win By 31-27 Another victory was added to the Lightweight squad last Friday, as the Polar Bear Cubs defeated Libbey, 31-27. The season's record for Wood- ward now stands at nine victories against a single blemish. DeVilbiss' Tigers put the only mar on the Cubs' record, that coming by a two point margin. The tussle was a close contest all the way with the Bears holding a slim two-point margin at the first quarter, and falling into a 16-point deadlock at the halftime. Holding the Cowboys to no goals the third canto, Woodward gained two points on Libbey in each of the last quar- ters, to account for their 4-point mar- gin of victory. The ofi'icial's whistles interrupted quite frequently, as they sounded for 36 fouls, 22 of which were called against the Bears. is tied for seventh place in the league scoring race. Forwards Woody Gearhart and Nick Ro- mano also are up from the light- weights. Tigers Rapidly Widening Gap lJeX'ilbiss' clash with Scott is almost certain to bc a battle as the Bulldogs will shoot the works in an effort to haul down the high flying Bengals, who have a two game advantage Maher, who are in the third and first positions, respectively, in the city point parade. Each has meshed 27 field goals but Maher holds the edge due to his 21 suc- cessful foul conversions. Cottrill has only 8 gratis throws. AMERKS EXTEN D WINNING STREAK Winning three grames from the Lib- bey Cowboys, Woodward's American bowling team remains in first place with a' three game advantage over second-place Macomber and current victory streak of 19 straight games which has already set a league rec- ord. Stanley Berezowski and Mel Sobccki figured prominently in the Libbey triumphs as Berezowski posted a 561 and Mel came through with a 517. For the Cowboys, Kevin Steiner with a 523 paced his teammates, fol- lowed by John Spence and his 503. Only in the second game did ,the Amerks have to extend themselves to preserve their streak, taking this game by only four pins, 782 to 778. Individual marks are as follows: WOODWARD 171-125-180-476 145-121-147--413 150-159-179-488 166-202-193-561 186-175-156-517 FROSH WIN No. 3 AIN CITY LEAGUE The Woodward Frosh gained an easy victory over Libbey to the tune of 31-15. The South Siders drew first blood but the Bears forged ahead and never relinquished their lead. Woodward's chief threat was Bob Rego who led both teams with 13 tallies. Bill Henry took runner-up honors with 8 points while three men each had four apiece for Libbey. Very few fouls were called on either team although the game was rough at times. Coach Leo Robie almost cleaned the bench as he piloted his boys to their third loop win in four tries. The Bears' only setback was at the hands of Waite. Olficiating the con- test was the capable line coach of the Lightweight football team, Don Zicmke. Ed Siminiak .........,.. Dick Bieniek .......,.... Don Reaume ............ S. Berezowski ..........

Federation Team Wins In Overtime It was the second straight victory for Woodward's High School Federa- tion team last week Thursday as they dropped Scott in an overtime contest, 318 to 26. At the end of the regula- tion time limit thc score was knotted at 26 all, but the Bears hit the hoop with accuracy in the extra period, scoring seven points while Scott was unable to tally. The Woodward entry is now tied with lilacomber for the top spot in the league, each recording two wins against no defeats. CENTRAL STOPS WOODWARD, 40-38 Jerry McCloskey spelled the difference of victory and de- feat for Central last Tuesday as he meshed 24 points to lead the Irish to a 40-38 edge. Jerry used his height to good advan- tage as he worked well off the backboards and accounted for more than half of his team's' total on shots under and around the basket. Both teams started slowly as Smith and Rutkowski were the only Bruins to tally in the first period which found the Bears trailing, 7-4. Mc- Closkey poured in eleven consecutive points in the second period and this enabled the Irish to leave the fioor at intermission ahead, 23-20. Crawford Keeps Bears in Game In the third quarter, Norm Craw- ford added three fielders to the Bear total but McCloskey did better as he marked up 8 more points for' him- self to enable the Cherry Streeters to lead, 37-33, going into the final period. Ted Rokicki sank the only goal for Woodward in this quarter and added a foul shot for three of the five points the Bruins scored. Then, Jack Smith fouled McCloskey and went out of the game on per- sonals. McCloskey make the gratis throw good and the Shamrocks led by two points with a minute to go. As in the Libbey game, the Bears had several tries at the basket in the final minute but none were suc- cessful and Central held its edge till the end of the fray. Reserves Clipped, 41-21, By Surprising Irishers Completely bewildered by a. tight zone defense, Woodward reserves ab- sorbed a sound drubbing at the hands of Central's Irish to the tune of 41- 21. The Blue and White crew have now lost two city league games while winning three. Their overall record for the season thus far is much more impressive with eight victories and two defeats. Erratic ballhandling and unsteady shooting showed up throughout the contest as the Irish controlled the backboards and then swept down the floor for one basket after another. At the end of the first quarter the score was 8-1 as Jerry Lohmeyer was able to make one foul shot. The Irish continued on their merry way as they pulled ahead to a comfort- able 23-7 lead at halftime and then went on to outscore the Bears in the second half, 18-14, to annex the game by a comfortable margin. Donoher paced the Irish attack with 12 mark- ers while DeBord and Suszka each tallied 4 points for Woodward.

Walter Markiecki Presiding over the Polka Frolic, spon- sored by the Polish Lit, is the senior chairman, Walter Markiecki. Althouhg it is an outside affair, being held at the Security Hall, recognition should be acknowledged to the backers of this affair. Walter or Junior, as he is often called, has been quite an active member of the Polish Lit. It was his job to undertake the entire affair in his hands. Besides this he is kept busy working part-time at the Sohto Station. Entering another field, he is very much interested in elec- tricity. The latter is one of his favorite subjects under the supervision of Mr. Rynder. As all males usually do, Walter in- dulges in the sports field as his main di- version. Basketball, fishing, and foot- ball are the most prominent of these. He also joins the long skirt con- demners. In the vital statistics department, he is 5'8 , weighs 160 pounds, lives at 3125 Mulberry, and his alexander's number is Ad. 9097. Walter can usually be found at his favorite hangout, Curley's, with his buddies, Ernie Nidek and Bob Bialecki.

Tickets alloted to the schools are generally used by pupils, but since this speaker and topic held special interest for Mr. Rohrer he accompanied Jean Taylor to this lecture. He has submitted the following report.D ' Countess de Fels who has recently arrived in the U. S. from her native France- asked Winston Churchill in Paris not long ago, What do you think of Paris now '? His answer might summarize the c-ountess' talk last Satur- day at the Commodore Perry Hotelj Said Churchill of the best loved city in the world, lt's still my Paris. - The hardships of war have scarcely diminished during the past few years. Food is scarce. Food prices are exorbitant. The rise in the general cost of living has far exceeded that of wages. Recent strikes curtailing gas, egecgrlc and transport services have further taxed the fortitude and patience o arisians. OLD SPIRIT STILL PREVAILS Yet it seems certain that such a fiercely individualistic people, despite their miseries, will not submit to any plan of regimentation. That courage- ous, proud and gay spirit of Paris which transcended the hardships of war is prevailing the present agonizing circumstances. The Montmartre and Montparnasse quarters, as of old, teem with intel- lectual and artistic activity. The opera is brilliant as ever, though perform- ers, like their audiences, are cold. People still walk along the Seine in the shadow of the Notre Dame Cathedral, the Louvre and the other grand monu- ments. The historic book stalls on the quais attract as always. Numerous flower markets still evidence the Parisian's traditional love of flowers. As may be expected there is a strong interest in fashions. The Countess herself sported a brilliant red hat cocked over her right ear. The bell-shaped skirts prevalent on the Champs-Elysees find favor even with the men. HIGH SOCIETY ACTIVE V In elite society the salon fosters intellectual activity as it has since the 17th century. In her own salon, Countess de Fels has been hostess to Andre Maurois and Edouard Herriot, both well known to Americans. During the occupation the German governor succumbed to the spell of Paris and ignored' Hitler's order to blow up the city just before the liberation. Parisians, always moved by sentiment, were deeply touched when General Bradley of the American Forces arranged to have General Leclerc and the Fighting French lead the Allied column into the city.- I bring the honor roll to an end for the first semester. Q Students Discuss Military Training Woodward was host to Ottawa Hill High School for the Junior T o wn Meeting of the Air last Tuesday, from 1:30 to 2:00, over WTOL when students from both schools presented their ideas on the much debated subject Should Congress Enact Compulsory Military Training as Contemplated?', Barbara Parks, a senior from Ottawa Hills teamed with Rita Pinski, a Wood- ward senior,inasmuch as they were both for Compulsory Training. Very much opposed to the idea were Hayden Ben- nett, Ottawa Hills senior, and Ray Barker, Woodward junior. Comprising the panel were Martha Mault, Virginia Bell, Jerry Pokrywka, Marion Antonini, Philip Hall, and Dick Dimwiddie. All ex- cept Dick are Woodward students. The girls on the panel were for compulsory training, and all the boys agianst it. After each student had expressed his veiws there was a brief question period with audience participation. Special guests included Sylvester W. Hoffman, from the Indiana Y.M.C.A, who is starting a Youth Forum there, and two members of the Youth Confer- ence, Marvyn Reams of Libbey, and Thorrel Humphry, T.U. Lee Rynder an his boys were in charge of the small audience microphones. Harry Lamb is moderator for these meetings, and the announcer is Don Miller.

Paul Kolasinski seems to have another interest besides painting, she is a Libbey lass by the name of Ella Mae Lawson. Sparkle, glitter, and shine!! This gives you an idea of what the engagement on Irene Stajszczak's fin- ger looks like. Irene got the ring from Dick Gles- mer, last year Central grad. Peanuts Pokrywka has been called many things in his life but now he claims his name is Ivan Prefabshatz. He wants all his friends to get ac- customed to calling him Ivan. Mr. and Mrs. Duvalle are happy to announce the birth of a 7 pound 5 ounce baby girl who born to them on January 24. Mrs. Duvalle is the former Evelyn McDougal graduate of 1946. In case you manless females are interested Stanley Wysowaty, junior is on the lookout for an interesting, intelligent girl who will be willing to do all his homework for him. Can any of you qualify for this position. I Nannette Foran comes marching through!! When the Adams Township busses didn't run be- cause of the cold weather, Nannette couldnit be stopped. She made her way to school anyway. That's what we call being ambitious. Phyllis Achinger, don't you know you shouldn't be chasing Tommy Wagner? It should be just the opposite way. Tommy is this a big enough hint for you. Ester Wendel and Jim Suska are being seen to gether very often lately. Watch out fellow, you know this is leap year. 'IRide em cowboy! Come on Gat Garson, kill that tiger, lion, and that flea. This is the phrase that you may hear if you happen to be near Calvin Harding for he is the original Gat Garson. Don't worry though he won't hurt anyone. The Tattler Staff wishes to extend the best of luck to its editor Dick Dressel who graduated in J anuary. Our assistant sports editor, Skeeter Bon- kowgki, also is one of the graduates of January. We will all miss you both. During the slippery weather last week Clara Mak- ras just couldn't stand up. When she fell, she hit the back of her head, which kept her at home for a day. ' As you probably know, our managing editor, Doris Basilius is one of the seniors who graduated during the half. Doris will be missed by all of us, especially be me because she typed all the mater- al for this page. Thanks a lot for your marvelous typing, Doris and to you and Bill, we wish the best of luck. Donald Dominiak, junior is in St. Vincent's Hos- pitalsulfering from an infection on his chin. PK ik if Bonnie Ducat was recently discharged from the hospital. It seems that more people have caught the flu or some other catchy bug. Jimmy Wilusz last year graduate stopped in to visit Mrs. Ersig and the Tattler Staff last Monday. Welcome back Jim, it was nice seeing your cheer- ful face again. The Campus Capers show was put on by Wood. ward last week and it was loaded with talent Especially that of Alven and David Wisniewski Their clarinet polka was super. Joe Bobak claims that the reason why you see the smoke out of a gun before you hear the report is because the smoke comes' out of the gun before the noise. Why is it that Ruth Bogdanski goes around the halls 1n such a daze? Is this due to her romance with Mike? A romance that has really lasted is that of Ruth Cobb and Jim Ricard. Love. is really grand. ,W ,,. L ,,, , ,. Y.. THE WOODWARD TATTLER i From The Desk . . . RISING to our mind now is the unbalanced be- A havior of many students toward their instruc- tors and their studies. These selfish students, who hardly ever appreciate the time and effort the patient t e a c h e r gives them, are most certainly following the wrong path to their future life. Teachers have a hard job. Students make it even harder when they don't co-operate, as coming to class without the assignment done, being tardy, chewing gum, and being noisey and discourteous. These so called citizens of tomorrow ought better make up their lost moments and become more ac- tive in classwork. Most teachers are good sports. Students can be doing what the teachers want and still enjoy doing the work. School is a place in which you learn and are instructed, not a three ring circus. Start out the new semester right. Get right down to business when entering a classroom. Work, con- fide, and above all listen to the adx ice the superior will give. After all, you, the students, should realize that you are only depriving yourselves of a better education and a chance to succeed. Bear in mind that by really listening, observing and participating in class work you will certainly prosper. ECENTLY the Dramatic Society has been reorganized under a new advisor, and the club wasted no time in getting down to work on a production for this year's presentation. The announcement of tryouts' for the cast brought a flood of enthusism and response on the part ofthe members of the club. After various tryouts in which every member had an opportunity to try out for.any part they desired, a cast was chosen by a vote of all members. Natu rally it was impossible for everyone to receive a part, but those remaining are willing to work on the various committees essential to the production of a good play. This fact shows us that the interest in Dramatics grown and the students are willing to work to- gether in the cast and on committees to make the play a success. Those who were fortunate enough to receive parts in the play should realize their good fortune to perfect their characterization. With both the cast and committees cooperating the Dramatic Society's presentaton is certain of success. O FAR there have been very few school dances- Now that Spring is not far away, the season for these social affairs will begin in full swing. Students are urged to attend these dances, as they are a wholesome form of entertainment. It is also showing the spirit of a loyal Woodwardite, a person who cheers for a team is not always the best spirited person, it's the one who backs all of its social functions. ' Clubs are also urged to put on these dances, bc- cause it gives restless pupils something to do after the sport seasons. It also helps the student body get acquainted with each other and promote a friendly feeling.

Dear Mrs. Kuku, With Leap year present, is it alright for a girl to ask a boy for a date? If the girl does, who should pay the expense? Blondie Dear Blondie, Not only is it allright to ask a boy on a date dur- ing Leap year, but I think it would be a good thing to carry out at least once ever year. Boys usually get tired of doing all the asking. Even though a girl asks for a date, the boy should have enough of sence to pay the expenses, but there are a few exceptions- one is if a girl askga boy on a roast, this is when she should pay the fare. If a co iple has been going steady for a long time, it won't hurt the girl to treat a boy on at least one date. Mrs. Kuku Have you seen the' pin Vera Sackman is so proud of??? But the fellow who belongs to it is not from Woodward. What's wrong Vera, don't you like Woodward boys? Girls you aren't'the only ones who have trouble with your hair.

The game stayed close the first few minutes, as llokicki, ltutkowski, and Smith combined for a 9-8 lead, but Henning sent a bucket and Scott took the lead they never gave up. At the first quarter mark it stood 18-105 Scott, and 29-12 at the half as Cot- tril scored seven points in a row. I Phenomenal a c c u r a c y in their shooting to the extent of luck , Scott continued hitting everything and drew slowly' away to 30-10 at the iii mark. Reserves Do the Scoring Here both teams substituted freely and Rutkowski and Aubry, who had just gone in, brought the score to 137-23, and now Woodward was scor- ing wild, with Aubry, Miller, Fenady, Smith, and Crawford putting their nickle's worth in. Up to'this point Woodward had been using a slow deliberate offense. ln the fourth quarter it seemed they used the fast break and scored 21 points, 11 by Aubry. Scott offset this total somewhat, by putting in 19 in the same quarter and with the score reading 54-40 the buzzer rang -on a determined Woodward crew. Craftsmen Trip Bruin Frosh By 27-15 Score The freshman dropped the only game out of the three by the score oi' 27 to 15 to Macomber. The Crafts- men were paced by Dale Badyna, for- mer 1Voodwardite. The contest was close at the half with the Bears out front by one point, 11 to 10. The Mechanics pulled ahead while holding the Frosh scoreless the third quarter. lflobbs was the only man to score for Woodward the second half, dropping in two field goals in the last quarter but the lead that Macomber had built up was too commanding. This game does not count in the league as Macomber plays sophomores for the lack of freshmen. Amerks Lose First Place After Defeats Woodward's Amerks saw their 20 game winning streak go by the boards Jan. 24 when they dropped two out of three games to Macom- ber's bowling aggregation. And then last Saturday the Amerks found themselves knocked out of first place in the High School standings as they absorbed defeat in three straight games at the hands of DeVilbiss. In the Mech losses, Ron Langa paced the Macoinber attack as he fired a 508 total while Jim Benedette and Dick Adamski rocked the pins for 500 scores. Stan Berezowski's 211 enabled the Amerks to gain an edge in the initial game and he finally finished with a 545, high for both teams. Robert Milne had a big day against the Amerks and ended up with a 208-192-214 series for a blistering G14 as DeVilbiss managed to take three games by the margins of 10, 28, and 5 pins. Teammate Buettner led off with a big 236 and continued on to a 571 total as he annexed second honors. Mel Sobecki's consistency gained him a 552, the best for the Amerks, and Ed Siminiak was close behind with a 551. A Giving DeVilbiss its biggest scare in city competition, the Woodward Polar Bears fell to a strong Tiger crew in Wood- wardls gym by a score of 38-30. Rutkowski and Smith teamed up to make the score 8-8 at the first quarter mark. Rokicki hit two long one-s from the side to open the second period followed by a lay-up by Smith, bringing it to 14-8. , Jim Maher kept from scoring, too much by ltutkowski. then went in a streak and scored mne successive points to put the Tigers to a 17-14 lead. From here on. the teams traded buckets with Woodward always in the game against the loop-leaders. At one point, after Rokicki and Smith had connected the score read 24-23, but DeVilbiss always had that extra push to keep them just out of reach. With three minutes to go and the score 33-30, DeVilbiss froze. Wood- ward went out to steal and the Tigers kept coming in for two points, hnally gfflllilli to :AS-3o. Maher was high with 21 followed by Smith at 12. League-Leading Tigers Stop Bear Cubs, 27-24 Fighting every inch of the way, the l'olar Boar cubs fell to the Light- weight League leadcr, DeVilhiss, by the score of 27-24. DeVilbiss commenced the scoring with Haggerty hitting and at the first quarter pole the Tigers had an 8-4 edfre. Pulling away fast in spite of Lehr Whitney's four points the Upton Strceters moved into an 18-10 margin at halftime. Stewart and Suszka scored to open the second half as Woodward domi- nated the play, but foul shots kept them out of reach of the Bengal to- tal, and the Bears lagged 25-18 at the three quarter mark. Desperately, the reserves tried to overcome that lead but the Tigers did a good job-of defending their bucket in the final minutes and Wood- ward bowed for the third time in the City League. Bulldogs Fall Victims To Woodward Cubs ln a game decked by superiiuous fouls, the Woodward lightweights victimized Scott by 31-16 on the Bull- dogs' small floor. Starting fast the rough reserves from Streicher Street moved away and with Whitney and Lohmeyer hitting, moved into a 14-8 lead at halftime. Holding the Collingwood boys to one point and garnering eight themseves, the Bears opened up a third quarter gap of 22-9. Some of the players were getting a little rough and were excluded from the game by the referee. Suszka kept the scoreboard grow- ing larger in the space marked visit- ors as he hit consistently in every quarter, finally ending up with 7 tal- lies. Todak for Scott meshed 6 points to lead his teammates, while Whitney alsoigot six markers for Woodward. Jack DeBord and Beans Bieniek managed four apiece for the Bears. , Definitely showing more fin- esse than in any other previous game, the Polar Bears, playing at the Sports Arena in a triple header, racked up their second league win at the expense of Macomber. Brubaker Starts Scoring Playing cautious ball, both teams started slow, until with two minutes gone Brubaker connected on a lay-up and followed with a foul shot, and the score read 3-0. Woodward drew out the Mech's de- fense and Smith tallied twice to put the Bears into a lead which they never relinquished to a game and clean crew. Rutkowski looked good in his fioor game but was bottled up by Brubaker and Gearhart when he tried to tally under the bucket. First quar- ter score, 7-5. Rokicki and Put-Put moved the Streicher streeters away in the second quarter and with Chubner's tighten- ing in the defense the Blue and White held a 10-10 half time score. Changing buckets the Polaritos moved ahead quickly, with Smith. Rokicki. and Hougtaling scoring in succession. VVith five minutes of the first half gone W.H.S. led 25-15. At this point the Long Belt riders started to hit and with the termination of the third quarter the score road 25-10. The surge continued into the fourth quarter with a bucket by Brubaker making it 25-21. Then lt-okicki lit a scoring spark by hitting from the :aide and Woodward again pulled away to 33-25. Romano joined Brubaker in scor- ing as the 'score read 33-29. Here Brubaker fouled out, joining' Rokicki who had fouled out earlier. A foul shot by King ended the scoring, as Woodward froze the ball the remain- ing ininute and a half. Bruin Rese1'ves Edge Mech Quintet, 24-23 A single point, a foul shot by Lehr Whitney, proved the margin of vic- tory for Coach Ted Sczelegowski's reserve crew as they outlasted a threatening Macombcr quintet for a 24-23 triumph. Captain Ralph Stewart paced the Bruins with nine tallies, with his last two pointer being the final Woodward bucket. For the Macomber cause, Center Shelly turned in the best per- formance, garnering eight points for his efforts. The lightweight crew now has a record of four wins and two losses in city league competition. After going 'over 740 exam papers which the girls' gym classes corrected themselves, Miss Catherine McClure and Mrs. Elizabeth Ollendorf issued grades they thought the girls earned. Grades were determined by skill and written tests on volleyball. Dress- ing and the payment of the towel fee also played a part in the grades. From the 740 grades 33 A's, 276 Hs, 391 C's, 20 D's and 2 F's were recorded. To girls taking modified gym 24 credits were given in all. Intramurals in basketball will be played after school on Mondays and Thursdays. Unlike volleyball the tourney will be 'strictly feminine and not co-ed. Out-of-town opposition in the form of Monroe Central Catholic moves in tonight to encounter the Polar Bears on their home court. The Blue- and White rank as a heavy favorite, having clashed with the Monroe quintet earlier in the season and hand- ing them a 45-23 shellacking. ' Bear Lineup Changed ' Coach Wilson Weis has made some changes in his starting lineup since the Scott tilt. Bob Aubry, a potential scoring threat has taken over a for- ward p-ost along with dependable Bob Rutkowski at the other spot. In the center slot will be Jack Smith with George Fenady breaking in at the spots along with Ted Rokicki, With the reserve corp of Norm Crawford, Ray Varner, Put Put Houghtaling, Dave Saygers, Butch Miller, and Jim Chubner expected to see plenty of action. Main gun in the Monroe offense is center Basile, who meshed nine points in the first engagement with the Blue and White. I Port Clinton Topped As Woodward Romps Paced by Center Jack Smith and Forward Bob Aubry, Woodward's Polar llears romped to a 61-48 tri- umph over an outclassed Port Clinton quintet last Tuesday. Cavorting in their new blue red-trimmed uniforms, the Bruins blasted the hoops for 28 fielders and 5 foul shots, while the Redskins lagged badly in fielders but converted 16 out of a possible 25 free throws to prevent the game from becoming a complete runaway. Getting off to a fast start, Wood- ward rocketed to a 20-10 first quarter lead as Bob Rutkowski, George Fen- ady, Aubry and Smith kept the Blue and White attack running in high gear. Smith broke loose for seven points and Aubry added five, in the second canto but Guard Dave Krupp and Forward Migala got hot for Port Clinton and the Bears had only a 32-26 margin at halftime. In the third quarter, Aubry couldn't be stopped on his pivot shots and split the cords for four iielders while Fenady chipped in with two baskets to guide the way to a 51-32 third period score. The Redskins dropped in 10 foul shots in the final quarter to narrow the margin of victory. Aubry led the attack with 19 mark- ers while Smith scored 16, and Fen- ady and Rutkowski each notched 8 apiece. Krupp grabbed the evening's honors, however, with 22 for Port Clinton. VIKLSQQE Sl-IVKTS To start oif the second semester, regular and line basketball will be played in the gym by the girls of.all classes.

He will take part in the matinee and the three evening performances. This is the second time Mr. Rohrer will parti- cipate in a performance of the sort. He also aided when the musical Car- ousel was in Toledo. ' When these performances come they bring only a 'skeleton orchestraof about 25 members. They then call upon the local talent to aid in furnishing the music. In order to becoine better qualified in refereeing a game of basketball, the girls of the Leaders Club met on Monday and Thursday of this week to learn all the rules and regulations of the game. sl 5 Danny Thomas Contributes To Fund A Toledo, but better yet, a Woodward high school product, has joined the ranks ofthe successful, is not, as yet ready to forget his home town and even though he thinks they have defi' nitely let him down. When William F. Roh:, advisor to the Engineering Socic' ty, tuned in the Danny Thomas program two weeks ago, he heard Danny jestmg about the fact that he did not receive very much fan mail from Toledo, Ohio, his home town. Mr. Rohr immediately wrote Mr. Thomas assuring him that Toledoans do listen and at the same time told the radio comedian about the 80 fund of his Edgineering Society and asked him to become a member. A check for live dollars was receive from Danny for this fund which enables the club the send members on to Toledo University after graduation Mr. Thomas was a member of the class of 1931 and might possibly be re- cognized by member of the faculty as Amos Jacob.

Teachers Ban Visitors Because too many people have been roaming Woodward's halls and disturb- ing classes, it was decided that there would be no visitors allowed in Wood- ward. This ruling was made al the last teachers meeting January 30. However, the following Monday the halls were filled with college students anious to see their former teachers and school- mates. Of course, Pop LaRue didn't have the heart to make them leave. Dance Schedule Announced In the following months ten dances will be put on by various club and classes. A schedule of these dances has been put on the bulletin board. Of these dances seven will be in the girles' gym.

Dreams Do Come True When the football Season ended this year, the principal, the coaches and members of the Athletic board kept in mind the hope of every Woodward fan that some day this school might see the dream of a stadium be- come a realization. Through the efforts of' the members, with the additional help of Frank Grill, Sam Gallo and Clarence W. Luelf, a peti- tion, in the form of a request, was circulated among the citi- zens living in the Wilson park vicinity. As a result of their work, the petition was present- ed to City Council Monday night, and an architect's draw- ing now rests in the first floor show case. Bellman, Gillett and Richards, the architects and engineer employed, have com- pleted plans for a stadium that will seat 3,500 on each side of the field with no one sitting be- yond the ten yard line, having a track for practice and still have enough room for the facilities of VVilson park as they are now. There are other stadiums of this unique design in the country but not in this section. Backing from everyone 1n- terested is now needed to get this request passed by Council. Students and parents are urged to voice their opinions for this project loudly as the few who oppose it will. Write or phone a councilman today and tell him why you think it's time for Woodward to have its stadium. Trip To Ford Plant . Being Arranged Making plans for their annual Ford trip the Engineering Society under the supervision of W.F. Rohr, has re- ceived from Mr. Fisher, a letter stating details of the 'ensuing trip. Last year 6 buses with 230 boys visit- ed Greenwich Village and the Ford plant. This year the village inspection will be excluded with more time spent at the strip and bar mill. Mr. Fisher, who will have a party will meet the group at the Rotunda at 10:30 A.M. on April the 15, has outlined an interesting tour, for approximate- ly 200 boys. Tickets last year were 852.00 and will probably be the same, but persons wishing to participate in this excursion would benefit by paying at their ear- liest convenience for tickets may be limited. Ford's steel facilities will not be in- spected due to safety hazards. Music Stands Purchased Edgar Sorton has purchased thirty all metal music stands for the music department. Two hundred and fifty dollars was taken out of the music fund for this cause. The orchestra is composed of twenty one players. Mr. Sorton has high hopes for a better orchestra this year. Classes Study Dishes Miss Blanche Hazelton's Home Liv- ing classes are learning how to buy din- nerware and glassware. Some of the most prominent companies considered are Crown Derby, Lenox, and Minton. These girls are taught to buy dishes by their quality, design, and pricef This phfse of the course should prove help- u . Life Con Be Beautiful: ' Or, We Enter Sing-Sing As the 9 o'clock bell rang on the morning of Friday the sixth, 30 cour- ageous seniors walked slowly to their doom! No, they weren't put before the firing squad for skipping class or chewing gum in history, but were given a state scholarship test to determine their qualifications for going to college. We entered the library each trying to sit nearer the smarter, so that's why James Spro-ss sat near Lawrence Bankowski and Frank Swanson fol- lowed Marion Antonini to his seat. Was I surprised to see .Pat Pope there. She must have had Frances Tegtmeyer tutor her during the summer to be- come a senior in three years. N0 wonder Joanne 'tMuscles Leibovitz broke her newly sharpened pencil on the first answer, she told me later that she had a seven pound T-bone steak, 4 pork chops, 8 eggs, and 3 cans of spinach for breakfast. CShe's on a diet you know.J Forrest Black and Joe Shibley The lnseparablesv had it smooth going when it came to the math and science sections, respectfully. Joe said he missed only one CYD science question. Henry Roth wasn't worried a bit about the test. Every timel looked up from my paper, I would see him staring at the ceiling. Joyce Schmidt and Joanne Sackman looked as if they knew all the answers, with their brains I would too. No Cheating Allowed They say that tests do things to people. Now I believe it after seeing Fadwa Mickel with a box of kleenex next to her. Maybe they were for her cold. Corrine Darah sat there devouring the eraser on her pencil. I won- dered why she wasn't hungry at lunch time. All during the test Irene Nakos kept staring at her watch as if it had the answers on it. Maybe thatis why Rita Palicki and Carol McNutt tried to sit near her. Bob Johnson looked as though he had been on a lost weekend with Edward Loo. When Chuck Samson and Ernie Simpson finished their test, they began reading Little Lulu comic books. Chuck Gajewski found Orphan Annie more interesting. After answering a few questions Elsie Rutki and Eleanor Bodner weren't so sure they wanted to go to college. A question that asked, What school in the State of Ohio has the Saga as their yearbook? really stumped Shirley Foxe. Rita Raidecki was quite contented chewing her nails. Near the ned of the hour Phyllis Sosnowicz looked two years older, while Joanne Lukasiewicz lost 30 pounds from starvation. Bob Aubry was puzzled about a question that read, Who presides over a Senior Class meeting? He wasn't sure but he put down, A sophomore. By this time, the clock struck 12 and the 3-hour test was over. We all scrambled to our next hour class except for the few including James King who enjoyed the noon movie. Woodbury - F15-'ligollywood Gossip Everyone Loves To Read California here I come , but, unlike the second line of the ever familiar song, it isn't where we started from . Maybe not, but even so, the mem- bers of the junior and senior classes and their advisors came a little closer to that heaven on earth Tuesday, February 10, when Mitch Woodbury, famous theatrical columinst, spoke at the monthly senior class meeting. A few facts about Mr. Woodbury's personal life, that were not given during the assembly, were unveiled'to your T.N.T. 1Tattler news trotterj immediately after the address. It seems that Mr. Woodbury can be classi- fied as a bulldog . Don't get alarmed! We only mean that he became a freshman at Scott high school the year it opened. He started his journalis- tic career then and there by earning the enormous sum of ten cents an inch for athletic news about said school. fSometimes he had as much as 32.50 a week.J The summer before his senior year he was offered the position of assistant to the sports editor of the Times. Two weeks after school started that September, while at Swayne Field, Mr. Mitchell was offered a still better office with this paper. In our opinion Mr. Mitchell might be temper- mental at times, because when he told me Being an only child, I got my way, he had a smile on his face. Once a year Mitch goes to Hollywood and intends to go to Chicago soon. As to the actual locations of the studios, they are miles from the center of the city, some being as far as 10 to 15 miles away. To get into one of of these, and we quote, You have to know somebody who ,knows somebody who knows somebody . CI'll stay home.J Work on the sets of the A pictures proceeds very slowly. At times only three scenes are shot each day. When making a tour of the studios, Mr. Mitchell looks for something unusual, humerous and of human interest. An example of such an item follows: On the Universal set of Singapore, the scene required a. fervent kiss between Fred McMurray and Ava Gardner. When the act was success- fully completed, the director asked, Do you two know each other? The answer was, Noi The technical process shot , which dominates in the scene of tidal waves in Green Dolphin Street , was explained as scenes shot on the screen behind the actors to disillusion the public. Actors' agents also play an im- portant part in the daily life of the stars. When Ivan Conn, who is now talent scout for Warners, was Joe Brown's agent, he tried to negotiate with producers who were considering Joe for Mid Summer Night's Dream . Joe was to receive a Packard. Since Ivan received ten per cent, he wondered if he would be presented with a bicycle for his services. Mr. Mitchell believes there is a future in journalism if you are inter- ested in it. He stated that when he last talked to Danny Thomas CToledo rahlj the star said he thought he was on the way up. In fact, when Danny waved to his director passing in a car, the director permitted the chauffeur to wave back. T.A.C. PLANS ARE UNDERWAY As in previous years, arrangements are now being made to select the out- standing senior to receive the Tattler Achievement Cup, to he awarded on Recognition Day, June 11. Chairman of the ifaculty committee is always C.C. LaRue, with Clyde Meek and Miss Amie Miller also permanent members because of their positions as deans. Miss Ethel Kerlin, representing the English Department, Mrs. Lucille Farrell, historyg Lincoln Clark,-scienceg Wilson Weis, commercialg Joy Mohr- hardt, shop: and Ted Szelagowski, physical education department, are the faculty members sewing on the commit- tee this year. The student who receives the cup is chosen for distinguished service in all fields and general all around service. All four years are taken into consider- ation. Each senior will have an opportunity to vote for the classmate of his choice on Thursday, February 19, when ballots will be distributed in all first hour classes. The ten or twelve highest de- termined by this vote will be asked to submit a list ot all their activities dur- ing their four years at Woodward. Be- fore being given to the faculty for con- siderationg the lists are t y p e d, thus making them all uniform. The li nal decision is made by the faculty com- mittee. Students comprising the T a t t l e r committee are Phyllis S o s n 0 W i z, Dolores Roznoski, Forrest Black, T om Papps, and Mira Slichinski. Being editor of the Tattler, Phyllis will act as chair- man ofthe committee and Mistress of Ceremonies at the Recognition Day Assembly. As the Achievement Cup is sponsored by the Tattler Office, the senior stad' members are ineligible for this award. Students are requested not to vote for Irene Nakos, Dolores Roznoski, Rita Palicki, Phyllis Sosnowicz, Patricia Becker, Forrest Black, and Leon Zawisza. Students are urged to use the ballot found in this issue of the Tattler. Board Of Education Discontinues Fees By the action of the Board of Educa- tion at a meeting on December 1, 1947 several of the regular school fees will, be discontinued, beginning with the se- cond semester.Those falling into this catagory are: home economic fees, fine arts fees, industrial art fees, commer- cial fees and all science except chem- istry, where students are required to pay a fifty-cent fee covering breakage of equipment. The fees which are still in existance are: a twenty cent rental fee supple- mintary books in the English classes, a fee of 81.50 in the driver's classes, a fifty cent soap and towel fee for gym classes. In history, fifty cents for the American Observer and Weekly News Review will be collected. Any students making articles in the shops are required to pay for the ma- terial they use in the construction of the article. Chorus To Sing Woodward's Special Chorus will sing at the first of the Lenten Services to be held at Trinity Church. Various speakers will be engaged for each of the services that begin at 11:45. Contributing the musical selections will be the responsibility of each high school. Schools have been assigned as follows: Woodward, February 16, March 8: DeVilbiss, February 17.

Because of illness Yvonne Thompson, senior, had to drop out of school. Everyone, including teachers and students, will miss Yvonnes presence. With all these handsome males at Woodward why do the girls have to go to other schoolsfor boy friends? An example of one such case is Pat Kock who tripped over to Libbey roped Cowboy Bill Gregory. One happy romance must be that of Bill Moore and Mary Anne Coburn, grad of Waite. Rumors have it that they keep telling each other I Love You Truly.

P at Becker same, imagine that you are living in the days ofEnglish and French medieval history. After a lit- tle research on the subject o Valentine day, my guess would be that you definitely would receive the idea with enthusiam. Yes, if you would have lived through a few Valentine days in that dec- ade, you wouldn't be satisfied with the usual custom we employ in celebrating it today. The circumstances that led to it's connecting with cupid, bows, and arrows, hearts, candy,flowers, lacy card with sweet and sentimental verses and, strangest of all, the name of St. Valentine are still quite confusing The only logical explanation lies in the following notes from history: It seems that during the earlier days of England and France, the young people would gather on a particular eve- ning to dance, sing and draw names by chance from a receptable. The person whose name was on the slip drawn immediately became the valentine and sweetheart of the holder for the ensuing year. Now we ask you, girls, wouldn't that be an easy solution to all your problems? But of course those things, as we said before, happen in story books and on the screen. We do have a similar solution, though, because this Valentines day falls during a Leap Year. Need we say more? Please, fellows, we're only kidding! Don't get the wrong idea and wait for a box of candy from your girl as she un- doubtedly will be awaiting the same from you. Our only hope is that you have already mailed that little declaration of your true love and purchased that box of chocolates, because the Tattler stali' doesn't want to be considered the cause of a school full of broken romances. Love and kisses to all .,...................... , OO many students have taken the attitude that the basketball games have been held for rowdy purposes. Just because of a few people who do not know how to behave in public, this privilege has been taken away. You know, if you want something, you have to give something in return. The trouble here is that too many people want something for nothing. A The faculty, student sponsors went to a great deal of trouble to secure permission to have these dances. A contract to keep the gym open, and se- curing permission for the orchestra to play were only a few of many things necessary. You had to pay 25c to go in and dance, you com- plained about the price, and then once inside, you lined the walls of the gym, only caused trouble. Now, instead of paying to go to a dance after the games and misbehave, you can save it or give it to a worthy cause. We hope you learn a lesson by this act and learn a little bit about common decency, too. NE of the most beneficiary assemblies ever to be sponsored here at Woodward are the Len- ten services held each year at this time. These assemblies will once again belpresented by the Y- Teens and the Hi- Y clubs. Speakers of dif- ferent denominations are featured during these pro- grams. Anyone intertested may attend but those who intend to be present for the purpose of acting rude, are to stay in their classrooms. These pro- grams are not compulsary and are for the benefit of the students interested. Everyone should try to attend, as the value of these services is one that can not be found any- where else. We commend the Woodward Y - Teens and Hi - Y who have combined to sponser these splended programs for the betterment ofthe school and the students. HE seniors will have the opportunity of voting for the senior they consider most deserving of the Tattler Achievement Cup. The winner of this annual award is determined by his or her con- tribution to the school in scholastic, athletic and social leadership. After the voting the ten seniors receiving the most votes will submit essays listing their activi- ties during their four years here at Woodward. These essays will then be judged by a committee composed of faculty members, each a representive of their respective department. This committee make the final decision in making the award. The Tattler achievement cup is the highest award a senior can receive in high school. Because of the importance ot this award it is necessary that you consider your choice very carefully before voting. All Tattler members are ineligible for the award because a committee composed of senior Tattler students plans the program at which the award is presented.

' Our story takes place in the little town of Spook- ville. The time is Friday the thirteenth when the inhabitants of the village delight in making that strange species know as human being miserable. As we approach the town excitement prevails for today a contest is taking place between Goofy Ghoul and Silly Spook to decide which is the most fearful and gruesome character. To the victor be- long the spoils a tender dish of roasted bats wings and pickled brains. To the defeated goes the most horrible of tortures- life on the planet earth. Their faces contorted with agony as they think of the plight in store for the defeated, the two creatures enter the packed arena Ctwo ghosts and one bored skeletonl. The duel is to be fought with whips and willcontinue until one of the contestents is downed. A hush comes over the crowd, then a tremendous yell as the two brave warriors began their boister ous combat. A terrific battle ensues with first one weakened, then the other. After 17 hours, 12 min- utes, and 3 seconds of this, the climax is reached!! Silly Spook is weakened-he falls. The crowd roars and cheers madly for Ghoul. They turn to hiss at the defeated-but wait-before their eyes he is trans- formed into a horrible monster-a human being. He waves a sorrowful goodbye and begins his journey- for earth. To this day he dwells there and each Fri- day the thirteenth weeps bitterly at the awful plight which is his. Vouching For Valentine Back in the third century AD a Roman later known as Saint Valentine formed a partnership with Cupid, which has proven prohtable for the greeting card industry. Valentine inspired by the romantic Cupid began the custom of penning poetry'such as the follow- ing: Roses are red Violets are blue- Whatever made me Fall for you? Your nose is hooked Your teeth are buck Your eyes are crossed- That's just my luck! In our sophisticated day St. Valentine is stil held in high regard. Those who vouch for Valentine are David Miller who is smitten with Martha Hall, Nancy Harter who thinks Eddie Knepley from Scott is grand. Bill' Long Ends Carolyn Puckett al cute valentine. Here's hoping that cupid's arrow finds its mark in your heart, too. THE WOODWARD TATTLER ite 46-4 . Coweor-BEAR,1R1sH-BULLDOG Bears Defeat Wa ' 3' FRAYS Tor ARENA TRIPLEHEADER Monroe Central Also Fall, Ray Varner's insertion into the game with time running out and the score 40-35 in favor of Waite, proved a smart and stra- tegic move by Coach Wilson Weis. For little Ray promptly hit two long shots to put the Bruins back in the game, and then dropped in two foul shots in the overtime period to clinch the game, 46-43, for Woodward. Paul Spencer, a sophomore up from the lightweights, meshed a fielder to tie the game at 43 all and then missed a gratis throw to send the contest into overtime. Third Quarter Splurge Waite started fast and led 11-7 at the end of the first quarter as most of the Bears seemed to play disin- terested basketball. The Indians proceeded to capitalize on the ap- parent lethargy of the Bruins and held a 23-16 edge at the half. However, in the third canto the Bears burst out in scoring fury as Bob Aubry netted eight points and Ted Rokicki came through with five. This spurt gave the Bears a 33-29 margin going into the final period and they needed it. Jack Smith and George Fenady stood out for the Blue and White as Smith was the only Bear who played a good backboard game for Wood- ward, while Fenady gave the Indians plenty of trouble with his aggressive guarding tactics. Jim Nauman of Waite scored 16 markers for high man with Aubry and Smith each tallying 12. Carr, Baker Box Their Way To Gloves Championships In the annual Golden Gloves box- ing tourney, sponsored by the Old News Boys and Toledo Times, three Woodwardites and four former Po- larites were entered. Carrying the colors for Police and Fire, Kelley Hymore, a fast-stepping fiyweight, punched his way to the finals only to lose by decision to Howard Freimark. Davey Parks brought his lethal uppercuts to the finals and he, too, lost a decision to Troy Johnson. ltex Rucker, another Woodward product, was handed a technical knockout by Harvey La- Plante after hc had advanced to the quarter finals wearing the banner of Police and Fire. Tom Osberger, grad of '45, teamed up with his former classmate, Cliff King, and they blasted their way to Mondayys finals where Tom was halt- ed by Champion Art Rae and Cliff was setback by Jack Baker, another tourney winner, and also a former Woodward lad. Buddy Carr turned in the best per- formance as he copped the light heavyweight championship of Toledo. Carr battled to the finals where he won on default from Norman Smith, who was unable to compete due to a twisted knee. The champions will go to Chicago for the midwest competition, and if victorious, will advance to New York for national recognition. The girls' intramural basketball tournament is scheduled to begin on Monday, February 16. The games will be played on Mondays and Thursdays after school. Roaring up and down the fioor in a nerve-wracking fast break, Woodward's Polar Bears piled up an impressive 64-18 count against Monroe Central Catholic of Michigan with the llear total being well 'distributed among nine playe1's. Last Fr1day's tus- sle found the Bears throwing caution to the windst' in wild scoring dashes the length of the hardwood. Bears Start Fast Guard George Fenady scored, after taking a pass, to start the evening's fireworks, and the Bears rolled on to a 13-8 first quarter margin with Fen- ady and Bob Aubry setting the pace at four points each. Center Pat Basile, also hit 4 markers for Mon- roe in the initial Canto but Forward: St. Bernard was the only other Irish- er to tally a field goal. Ted Rokicki arched a couple of long fielders in the second period as he led the Bruin attack which put Woodward out in front, 25-10, at halftime. Basile tallied two foul throws for the only Monroe points in this quarter. In the third canto, Jack Smith and Aubry each swished three two-point- ers as Woodward ran up a 43-13 lead at the third stanza's end. Still going at top speed, the Bruins ran wild in the last quarter as they tallied 21 points, Ray Varner's nine markers heading the assault. Monroe scored but 5 field goals in the entire game while the Bears tal- lied 26 times from the field. Varner's last quarter splurge tied him with Smith for scoring honors as each of them racked up 11 points. Aubry came close behind with 10 markers while Rokicki and Monroe's Basile each managed 8 counters. Waite Zone Defense Stymies Bear Cubs Once again the jinx of a zone de- fense stymied Coach Ted Szelagow- ski's lightweight cagers as the little Waite Indians squeezed out a 35-33 triumph over the Bears. Previously, the Bruins had been defeated three times in the league, each time against an opponent sporting a zone defense. Intermission time found the Bears and Indians deadlocked at 18 apiece. ln the third canto, the East Siders pulled ahead of the Streicher Street lads as guard Jim Fitterer meshed eight points for the Purple and Gold. A fourth quarter rally of ten points failed to offset the commanding third quarter advantage the 'Indians had run up, once again sending the young Bears down in defeat. Scoring honors for the evening went to Jim Fitterer, whose 12 tal- lies, ten in the last half, paced the Indian attack. For the Bruins' cause, Jim Suska and Ralph Stewart hit for nine and eight points, respectively. Due to absence of girls from the bowling tournament, which was held at the Auditorium bowling alleys, the tourney has been discontinued. How- ever, on Tuesday afternoons the al- leys will be opened to girls of Wood- ward who wish to bowl. The bus, which was chartered for the girls, will no longer provide transporta- tion. F,-,,,,,,, S-, . ... ...... . -.. ... After a close shave against Waite, Woodward's Bruins en- gage Libbey's Golden Cowboys tonight at approximately 7:45 in the second contest of another triple basketball bill at the Sports Arena. The llcars will be gunning for re- venge and their fourth league win against the South Siders while Cen- tral and Scott, who meet in the final game on the card, will be putting out plenty in efforts to better their title chances. Aubry Is New Scoring Ace Coach Wilson Weis made a couple of changes in his starting lineup since the Bears' defeat at Scott, and now has George Fen- ady at guard in place of Ed Houghtaling and Bob Aubry at' forward replacing Norm Craw- ford, with both innovations evi- dently strengthening the team. Fenady has been of valuable as- sistance in team play and has shown a lot of fight, while Au- bry has blossomed into a scor- ing threat with 52 points in his last four games. Other starters will probably include'Bob Rutkowski at forward, Ted Rokicki at guard, and Jack Smith, who did practically all of the backboard work against Waite and also contributed 12 markers. Cowboys Are Dangerous Looking over the South Siders, we find that the last placers have plenty of potential scoring artillery and are certain to give the Bears a tough scrap in effort to repeat their first round decision over the Blue and White. Cen- ter Paul Geyer is one of the top scorers in the city with Jerry Palmer and Ilobby Sarchiz a couple of very effective guards. Irish Scrap Is Important . Central's clash with Scott looms big as the Irish can gain a tie for first place with Devilbiss if they emerge victorious. In the event of a Bulldog victory, however, a three way tie for the city championship could result. In the initial game of the evening, Port Clinton's Redskins will tangle with Waite. Freshmen Defeat Waite In Repeat Encounter The frosh revenged their only set- back by thoroughly trouncing Waite. The Bears took an early lead and never were behind, leading at the quarter 17-2. Forging ahead steadily they held the 'Indians to a foul shot in the second quarter while only gar- nering 7 themselves as they pre- vailed at the half 24-3. Coach Robie started putting in his reserves and Waite started scoring, but the North Enders were still ahead 35-18. Waite got over twice as many points in the last quarter as they did in the rest of the game, but Zabrowski hit con- sistently and helped to keep up the scoring for Woodward. Bob Rego was high for the blue, followed by Larry Hadded. Moe played a sterling game at guard and frequently took the rebounds. Wat- son Welever was the official. Additional members who were re- ceived in the Leaders Club this se- mester are Nancy Harter, Theresa Kolacki and Marilyn Nagley, all jun- iors. The club is now composed of 39 members. LIGHTWEIGHTS ROMP IN 52-7 VICTORY Slaughter reigned king last Friday night as Woodward's lightweight crew virtually blasted a hopelessly outclassed quintet of Monroe cagers right off the court. When the smoke had cleared with the Bears gasping for breath from scoring so many times, the story telling score board read 52-7. ' Every Bruin saw action as Coach Ted Szelagowski cleared the bench in hopes of sparing the Monroe team miserable embarrassment. The Mich- igan boys were only able to garner two points, both foul shots, the en- tire first half as the Blue and White were rippling the nets for 26. The second half was a replica of the initial fourteen minutes with the reserves duplicating their first half score and Monroe finally finding the range for two field goals and a foul s ot. Lehr Whitney proved to be top man in the scoring colunm as he col- twelve markers for his eve- chores. Substitute center Dave came through with 8 tallies. man on the Bear team scored mayhem. lected ning's Zaski Every in the Tied for scoring honors on the Monroe crew were Hoffman and Swartz, each With two points apiece.

Merle Miller States Views On Magazines Merle Miller, one of the youngest men ever to speak at Town Hall, stepped forward Saturday morning at 11:00 a.m. onto the stage of the Com- modore Perry ballroom. What's Wrong With American Magazines? was the topic chosen for the lecture. The young ex-soldier shows promise of becoming a great leader in literature and the publication field. At the age of twenty- eight the brilliant Mr. Miller has been on the best seller list many times, is on the Harpers' payroll, serves as book editor of the Saturday Review of Lit- erature, works as a free'lance writer for Readers Digest and was the founder of Yank magazine. In Mr. Miller's opinion, United States magazines are too opinionated. They represent the ideas and opinions of one man. Too often these onesided opinions influence people who know noth ing of the other side of the story. Ex- ample of such magazines are: Time, Readers Digest and Saturday Evening Post. Magazines are afraid to print the truth. They are forever printing stories of what happens when there is another war. They should be printing stories on what must be done to keep the peace. Mr. Miller states that people cannot imagine the horror and devestation that another war will bring. At this time Miller stated that he did like two magazines -- Harpers and Atlantic Monthly. These magazine still do not fill what Mr. Miiler calls a necessity for a good magazine. He be- lieves that all magazines lack the courage to tell the world truth. Now when the talk l of war is uppermost, people should be informed about the disaster that a third World War would mean. The Atom Bomb is now outmod- ed by bacterial warfare and the world could not withstand another war. In other words, Mr. Miller feels that American magazines have failed to tell the people that civilization has out- grown war and must find some other way of settling difficulties. V CThis combined report was submitted by Joanne Sackman and Shirley Fox, two senior students of Mrs. Hazel McManamon,s Senior English class.J if INIRODUCING -i Electro-Matic Stepping into the Tattler spotlight this week is a character which will play a vital part in the future of Woodward's typing classes. We wish to introduce Electro Matic who now resides in Mrs. Isla Van Vran- ken's room and will spend most of- his time cutting stencils lajob at which he is most talented 1. Mr. Matic lor Electro as he is known to friendsl was born in Rochester, New York. He was brought to Woodward through the courtesy of the National Office Managers Association in which Mrs. Van Vranken is an active member. Although such typewriters are com- monly used in oflices througout Toledo, Woodward has the honor of being the only academic high school in the city to have Electro's services. We would like to express our thanks to Mr. Wiley and Mr. Brown for their efforts in ob- taining Electro for Woodward. . Realizing how much genius and brill- iance Electro posesses the future for him means errorless and speedy typing for Mrs. Van Vranken's students and brings another addition to Woodward's office machines. Council Attenids Meeting The Toledo District Student Council met at Clay high school on February 10. The main topic for the meeting was the formation of a new constitu- tion. It was decided that it would be more convenient if the council met each third Tuesday of the month in- stead of the second Tuesday as has been the policy of the organization. Joyce Young, of Woodward, with a committee is working on a letter to our Congressman that pertains to the tax on school dances and amuse- ments. The next meeting will be held at DeVilbiss high school on March 16. Woodward Student Council represent- atives were: Joyce Young, Helen Korecki, Rudy Renz, and Richard Lewis. Mrs. Lucille Farrell, advisor to this organization, accompanied the group to Clay. Whitney Principal Heard By Frosh Miss Ethel Wooden principal of Whit- ney Vocational High School spoke to the Freshman girls during the as- sembly held today, Friday the thir- teenth. She presented the coures that are now available at Whitney. On Monday the sixteenth at 9:00 A.M., in our cafeteria, tests will be given to any girls interested in attending Whit- ney. Mrs. Florence Wells coodinator at Whitney will supervise these tests with Miss Ethel Kerlin assisting her. At a later date the girls who took these tests visit Whitney. Tattler Members To Attend Meeting The DeVilbiss high school Prism has invited the Tattler staff to attend a meetimg of all high school journalists on Monday, February 16. Paul W.

During Saturday's performance Seymore Eget, Jack Hamb- lin, Rita Burford and Viola Fritch were four of the twelve selected from the audience to sit on the stage through till the end of the show, but when Frank- enstein arose from his lying place, they immediate- ly decided they would rather sit in the audience. They still are having quite a time taming their hair after that hair rising experience. Pat Becker's main interest is a lad wav at Colum- bus Grove High School, Dale Warrington, a senior. Dan Cupid sure has a lot of miles to cover. Those insurance business cards that are found in the Tattler box weekly, don't seem to interest anyone on the staff. So whoever drops them in the box, better give it up. My, My, My, such silly nicknames that are flying around W0odward's halls lately, the newest one to date is the one of Mary Callahan. How 'bout that Bumps ???? Satisfied BAIBA!!! Mel Majewski will celebrate his seventeenth birthday, Saturday, February 21. He's planning a little get-together at his house for the evening, and it would be nice if some of his friends would phone him up and wish him a very happy birthday. Just think, crusing around the Eastern' ports of th Carribean Sea in the winter time. Dick Steger is the lucky one. As a result of belonging to the Naval Reserve he was fortunately able to exper- ience this cruise for l8days. He left the fourth of February. Senior Barbara Louis LaMont celebrated her eighteenth birthday two weeks ago. Babs was accidently shot in the head fourteen years ago and still carries the bullet, which is lodged behind her car. Happy birthday Bab! . In one of last weeks Blade, a UN report written by Woodward's Bob Verbon, appeared on the edito, ral page. It was based on the statement, To Make UN work. By the time that Okie Okorowski and Red Blackowski get out of school they will each have enough of hand made furniture to furnish one room. That is because. they are both members of Mr. Crouse's wood shop. ' From The Desk . . . OR years now, the dreams of every Woodward' ite has been a stadium. Much time and energy, of both students and teachers, has been put forth to obtain the necessary money. Through var- ious drives and projects our dream is coming closer to reality. Plans must be made, however, to obtain a site for Woodward's stadium. One of the most favorable spots is Wilson Park. Petitions have been signed by the people of the Wocdward area, either for or against building the stadium there. It is the re- sponsibility of every student to talk to the neighors of Woodward and write to the councilmen to show them that the majority of the people approve of a stadium on this site. We donit want to see our plans for a stadium crushed by a few selfish people. Let's all work together to achieve our ultimate goal-a stadium for Woodward High School. fr an 4 ID you ever stop to think what a big word if is? When you hear people talking ofwhat they are planning to do do, that little word if al- ways manages to sneak in. For instance, if we had the money we could build a stadium. If we won more games, we could cop the championship. If we had the support at the games, we could win more times. If we had more people at Campus Campers, we could win that prize offered for the largest student attendance. Sometime just stop and think how much of our everyday lives is based of if. This insignificant little word is more important than the largest, most difficult word in Webster's dictionary. On it is based a large portion of our every day activities. l U 1 . HOOSING the student who is to receive the Tattler Achievement Cup on Recognition Day is an important job which takes place at this time of the year. The senior who will receive this Cup is the one who posesses scholastic or athletic qualities and has done most for the prestige of Woodward. Each senior has voted for the person they believe should receive the Cup. Students receiving the ten highest votes are to submit reports listing every school activity in which she or he has engaged. These reports will be read and discussed by a special committee of teachers chosen by the Tatt- ler Staff. Final decision of the recipient of this Cup is made by this committee. 4 4 -a ELL, here is another editorial on the same old thing: Your behavior in the auditorium. It has improved, but as you know it is not as good as it should be. The Lenten Service last Thursday was conducted very well, but there are always those few who can't act like human beings. It would be appreciated if those people who go only to talk, would please re- frain from going to the Lenten Services which are scheduled for the next few weeks. lQ?l'DlflitZ!l?

Whit Miss Snoopy's Q's To Woodward students and rooters, the most vital topic being discussed concerns the site of our football stadium.

Jack Smith scored a tip-in to put the Bears out in front, 29-27, in the final minute of play and Bob Aubry clinched the game when he dropped in a free throw. Faulty playing characterized the contest and Libbey took advantage of the Bears' miscues to gain a 5-2 edge at the end of the Hrst quarter. Paul Geyer of Libbey and George Fenady of Woodward each netted 5 markers in thc second canto and the score ran to 13-11, in the Cowboys' favor at halftime. Aubry Paces Bears ln the third period, Aubry and Ted Itokicki paced the Bruins in an up- hill battle which gave the Blue and White a slim 21-20 margin going into the final quarter. Aubry connected for another 5 markers in the last canto and Smith added 4 as the Bears finally won out by freezing the ball in the final seconds. Geyer was best in scoring for both teams as he hit for five fiielders and three foul shots to total 13 counters. Aubry came next with 11 points, while Rokicki and Smith each had 7. Cubs Trounce Libbeyg Stewart Leads Assault Playing in new uniforms the Wood- ward cubs trounced Libbey on the Bruin homo fioor by a convincing 46-25 score. Starting slow both teams found the hoop evasive and with the culmina- tion of the first quarter the Bears were ahead, 5 to 2, getting all seven joints on foul shots. Then Wood- ward clicked and cracking through with their devastating attack poled up a 19-7 half time lead. In the second half the Bruins piled up points and with their attack cen- tering on Stewart and DeBord ram- med to a 32-15 three-quarter mark. After this point with substitutions coming in and out, the team traded buckets until Woodward finally show- ing a last minute surge rose their margin to 21 points and a 46-25 win. Everyone on the team saw action in the romp. Stewart led with 13 points, followed by Suska, DeBord and Bieniek with eight points apiece. Allison was the only opposing player to score with consisting piling. University Senior Viewing Gym Classes Fred Piepcr, T. U. senior majoring in physical education, is receiving practical experience in this field by observing the Woodward. gym classes each Tuesday and Thursday. Under the capable guidance of Art Smith, Mr. Pieper will observe meth- ods of instructing for about five weeks, after which he will be given the entire responsibility of conduct- ing a physical education class. The next step is the important one of planning lessons for the groups to undertake. Bob Rutkokski game finds Macomber and Scott hooked up in a duel which will give the victor an opportunity to gain a tie for the city crown, with a battle between Libbey's last place Cowboys and Waite's Indians completing tonight's high school schedule. Larry Bondy's cagers have swept six straight games after losing two in a row, and now occupy the top spot in the league, with DeVilbiss a half game behind. On the other hand, the Bears have but four wins in ten' starts. However, Woodward has copped its last two league starts and will be primed to upset the Shamrocks. Added incentive to the Blue and White is the fact that the Bruins stand a good chance to tie either Scott or Macomber for fourth place if they can knock off' Central tonight and Macomber next week. Fenady, Aubry Aid Bears Guard George Fenady and Forward Bob Aubry, both re- serves earlier in the season, have earned starting jobs in Coach Wilson Weis' lineup and have been two of Woodward's main threats in recent games. Fenady doesn't score much but is a top defensive player, while Aubry has been the No. 1 scoring threat in the last three city games. Bob tallied 11 points against Scott, 12 against Waite, and 11 more against Libbey. Aubry's forward mate, Bob Rutkowski, has slowed down in his scoring game but if he should show his earlier season form, the Irish will have their hands full trying to stop him. Other Bear starters will include Guard Ted Rokicki, a good long? shot artist, and Jack Smith, high scorer and chief backboard specialist for the Bruins. McCloskey Brothers Are Dangerous Central's McCloskey brothers, Jerry and Dick, have been the big guns in the Irish attack lately and along with Gene Hickey, a fast guard, comprise practically all of Central's scoring punch. Jerry almost single-handedly beat the Bears in the first meeting between the two teams when he piled up 24 points, and he will be out to duplicate his performance. Tom Keubler, the spearhead of the Central fast break, occupies a guard post with Forward Al Marchal the other starter. John Raster may start in place of Keubl er. ROBIE'S FRESHMEN SQUAD CLIN CHES TITLE BY TROUNCING LIBBEY, 34-22 Coach Leo Robie's powerful Freshmen squad, garbed in their new uniforms, clinched the F1'osh cage championship last Monday as they overwhelmed the Libbey boys to the decisive score of 34-22. The Blue and White cagers still have Central to play in league competition, but no matter what the outcome, Coach Robie's boys will still be loop titleholders. Henry, Rego Sparkle Sparkled by Bill Henry's two buckets, the Frosh stepped off to a 9-6 first quarter lead. At halftime the Bears were still holding their three point advantage to the tune of 13-10. A blazing third quarter rush, paced by Bob Rego and Bill Henry, the Bruins forged ahead to a commending 24-14 edge. Fourth period activities still went in the favor of the Bruins as they out- scored the Cowboys, 10-8, thus earning the freshmen a well deserved championship. In the driver's seat of the Bears' offense were Bill Henry and Bob Rego who collected 12 markers each. For the South Siders, Guard Arnold cop- ped scoring honors with 6 points. Both Mr. Robie and his team should be praised for their fine showing, which in the future seems to insure Woodward of its share of cage glory. f Featuring a blistering first half attack, paced by Skip Aubry and Jack Smith, the Polar Bears completely h u m b 1 e d an out- classed Sylvania quintet for a decisive 61-32 triumph. The Bruins have now ran their con- secutive victory string to five. Guard Bryzezinski of the Wildcats opened scoring with a long fielder but this lead was soon erased as the Bear offense began to click for a 21-6 first period lead. The gap at intermission time found the Blue and White cagers with a comfortable 36-15 margin. After the first three minutes of the third canto, with Aubry hitting for six quick points, Coach Wilson Weis in- serted the reserves, with Dave Say- gers being the only Bruin not able to garner a point for the evening's fes- tivities. Aubry Adds to His Total Bob Aubry increased his point total to 79 points in the last six games as he again led the Bears in scoring with a total of 16 points. Jack Smith and Ted Rokicki came next in line as each picked up 8 tallies. Continual sore spots for the Bruins were Center Wise and Guard Brzezin- ski who collared fifteen and ten points, respectively, for their efforts. Lightweights Rack Up Easy 48-29 Triumph Woodward's lightweight c r e w marked up another victory as they breezed past a game Sylvania Burn- ham outfit, 48-29. Forward Jim Suska had a hot night for the re- serves and tallied 14 points on six fielders and two foul shots. However, Guard Rodebaugh of Sylvania grab- bed scoring honors as he split the nets for 8 field goals and 2 gratis throws for a total of 18 markers. Eight foul shots comprised the to- tal scoring both teams managed in the first quarter, the Bears tallying six for a 6-2 margin at the first per- iod's end. Suska then starting hit- ting and paced the reserves to a sub- stantial 17-9 lead at the half. Rode- baugh matched Suska's scoring out- put in the first half but Woodward gained its edge as Jack DeBord -join- ed Suska in the scoring column, to- taling six points. Third quarter action found the Bruins pulling away as Ralph Stew- art meshed 7 points and Suska tal- lied 6 to enable the cubs to maintain a 34-15 lead going into the final quar- ter. Rodebaugh failed to score in the third quarter but broke loose for 10 points in the last period to prevent Woodward from increasing its lead. Stewart came next to Suska in point production with 9 markers while DeBord garnered 8 points. Federation Bears Stop Macomber Aggregation Woodward's representative in the High School Federation League col- lected another victory last Thursday as it racked up the Macomber entry, 30-24. Ed Lair, former varsity play- er, took scoring honors for the night as he hit the hoops for 13 markers. Bud Kesling was second in the scor- ing as he meshed 6 points. Pat's Patter Somebody was in step with St. Valentine. Monday, six girls locker- ing on the second floor near the li- brary, opened their lockers and found insulting comic Valentines.

Sumwrt Support Constantly, Consistently Constructive QROSS . - J s -A TONIGHT Vol. XX Toledo, Ohio, February 27, 1948 NO- 21 ARE YOU AGING SUCCESSFULLY? fThe following report on the Town Hall Lecture was submitted by Elsie Rutkai, senior in Miss Camille Sav- age's class in World Problemsj When Dr. Lawton asked this ques- tion he is not only directing it at people in their thirties or older but also at people in their teens such as yourself. llr. Lawton, one of the few real authorities on the vital problem age, is a psychologist in private practice whose clients range in age from nine- teen to eighty-five. Originally he was :i specialist in adolescence but in 1936 he began to concentrate on the prob- lems of maturity. Many of his popu- lar articles have appeared in the Saturday Evening Post, Ladies Home Journal, New York Times and the New.York Herald Tribune. Dr. Law- ton is also the author of How to Grow Old Successfullyz and two forthcoming books, one entitled Ag- ing Creativelyn. Dr. Lawton's in- formal, vigorous, and witty style of speaking makes his lectures pleasing to listen to. Forget Your Lumbago Dr. Lawton is more concerned with people growing old mentally rather than physically. Everyone at some- time grows old physically no matter what they try to do to prevent it. He told of a grandmother in her eighty's who never complained of be- ing lonely or unhappy. She followed all sports and happenings in the world. She went to baseball games and kept a 'scrap book on them. The reason she was never lonely was everyone came to see her to get the scores of games and other data. She never bored people and so was never lonely. Dr. Lawton said he would much rather see a grandmother with a lunch box in tow going to her rivet- ing job, she would still be mentally young, than to see one like Whistler's grandmother. There are many beautiful, neon lighted, chiomemplated ruts that peo- ple fall into and never get out of. Dr. Lawton believes that these people actually die when their about forty although they are not buried till they are seventy. We must keep our observation pow- ers alive. Meet people of different political, religious, and social groups than our own. Just because a per- son is your friend isn't any sign he is the only good person in the world. Willingness to go on living and have new experiences keep a person men- tally young. Dr. Lawton said that Ohio is the most progressive state trying to help older people stay mentally young.

Letters of appreciation were re- ceived by Mrs. O'Brien, in regard to the CARE and Christmas boxes sent by the students of Woodward. Many of the letters from Finland were writ- ten in that language. Soap rated high on the list of desirable articles that were sent. This is evidence of only a small portion of the good re- ceived from these boxes. Another worthwhile project is be- ing undertaken by the club. This organization has purchased material which will be made into dresses. Mrs. Lola Bowyer's a d v a n c e d sewing classes will make the dresses which will be sent to residents of the Ozark mountains. Letters have been received from girls who have benefitted by clothing sent to this section. Without the clothing sent by the Junior Red Cross, these unfortunate children Would be unable to finish their schooling. Renz Attends Luncheon After Visit To N.Y. Rudy Renz, junior here at Woodward, attended a luncheon which was held Wednesday, February 18, at the Com- modore Perry Hotel. Mr. Lewis ofthe Owens Illinois Glass Company, who is also on the advisory board for the Jun- ior Achievement of Toledo, was chair- man.

From The Desk . . . g RUE school spirit shines through when you resent the mentioning, with praise, the name ofa school, other than the one you are at. Well, that's just what we're going to do. But wait! We're directing our little talk to the members of the freshman and sophomore classes who are con- sidering attending Whitney or Macomber next year. Vocational guidance is the chief aim of the two schools. In some cases, jobs are found for students when they graduate. Very often, positions are obtained for s udentsg not only for the years after their text books are packed away, but while they are still studying. One week you work, the next, you s t ud y. An interesting feature you'll agree and one that demands quite a bit of consider- ation. A So, for the saftey of your own future, cosider all possibilities very carefully before- making your final decision. A -1- -1- flf -If ATIONAL Brotherhood week ....,.. what's that? Does it have anything to do with me? You probably have a dozen other questions you could ask us about it, but to make a long story short, its a week for you to get on your tip top toes! A week to be extra nice to your neighbor, instead of just plain nice like you usually are six days and twenty-four hours out of every other week. Look at the fellow sitting across the aisle from you. What did you say when he picked up the pencil you dropped? Now that girl in front of you, didn't she let you borrow some paper in English? And who held the study hall door open as you slid in under the wire? We know those are simple everyday courtesies that your accustomed to. But how do you feel when you're on the end thatts giving out these little Daily Deeds and not receiving any compliments? During the week of March 22 1948, lets all give and then we'll all receive , But don't stop there, its a good deal to practice this policy from one March 22 until the next. OURNAMENT time is fast approaching for the seven city high schools and their suburban competitors. Once again this gala event will be held at the University Field House, where Wood- ward will reign as defending tournament champions. We realize now that this year's team hasn't fared as well as last season's quintet, which swept both the city crown and tournament banner. This is all the more reason for the need of the loyal support and encouragement of the student body for the team so that Woodward again can take the top spot. Remember, in the tournament, all teams entered start out with the same chance as the other. Natur- ally the league champions rule the favorite but ma- ny times before the league leaders have gone down in defeat in the tournament. This one may be no exception. With the students strongly behind the team, they will probably make a showing that all connected withtWoodward can justly be proud of. .,. 2. .,. ONESTY is the best policy! This famous adage is applicable in all walks of life. In the class ' room it is especially evident. Not only in honesty pertaining to material things but also in regard to relying upon your own intelligence connection with tests and school work. These are all forms of honesty. Fortunately, the majority of students arehonest and sincere, there is however, a small minority who have little or no regard for the property of others. In the future let us all make an effort to be more careful of our own property and also that of our fel- low classmates. Let the Golden Rule be applied to everything by everyone and then honesty will certinly thrive.

Another asset that Weis can offer is depth in the form ot' six good supporting players, Crawford, a bul- wark on defense, Varner, Put Put, Miller, and Chubner, all capable of plugging instrumental gaps and tall Saygcrs always ready to lend his height under the basket. The Monroe streeters will rely much on the scoring ability of Kenny Bru- baker, to offset the tough hurdle that Woodward offers. King, Gearheart, Miller and Romano all are members, indispensible to the Mech attack. Game time is 7:15. Bears Meet Scott Woodward's Polar Bears open play next Thurday in the North- western Ohio Class A district tournament when t h e y tangle with Scott's Bulldogs, twice vic- tors over the Bruins in City League competition. If the Blue and White stops Scott they will meet the Central Irish on March nineth. THE WOODWARD TATTLER BEARS QE TRAL, 41-3 RALLY - Norm Crawford The pace increased in the second c anto as the McCloskey brothers, Jerry and Dick, along with WINS FOR BEARS A determined band of Wood- ward Polar Bears pulled one of the biggest upsets of the season as they bowled over Central by 41-37 to knock the Irish into a first place tie with DeVilbiss. Never more than four points sepa- rated tl'e two teams up until the start ol' the fourth quartet, when Center lack Smith broke a 25-25 tie with a fielder followed by Forward Bob Au- bry's three straight baskets and a field foal each by George Fenady and Norm Crawford. 'TE-is scoring spree gave the llears a 37-25 bulge midway in the final quarter and the Blue and White held a 10 point lead until the final 6'I seconds when the Irishers hit three last ditch baskets in a row. Aubry's terrific key hole shots in the final period easily gave him scoring honors for the night as he sunk eight Held goals and two foul shots for an 18 point accumulation. Each team s t a r t e d slowly and at the first quarter's t c r m i n a- t i o n, the score stood at six all. Gene Hickey, put the lrish out in front, 16-15, at 1 halftime. Then, in the third quarter, Aubry poured in two quick Iielders and the Bruins led practically the entire period until the McCloskeys combined for a couple of 2-pointers to knot the score going into the final quarter. Bears Outplay Irish Bob Aubry - Assoon as the contest started, the crowd could sense the fight- ing spirit of Woodward as the North Enders fought doggedly for every break. Smith consistently beat Jerry ' ' 'i 7' 7 ' McCloskey to the ball in backboard scrambles, addition. Jerry and while Forward Bob Rutkowski, playing with a stomach disorder, was a constant threat as he savagely followed up his goal attempts from side court to tally eight markers. Guards George Fenady and Ted Rokicki were constant thorns in the Irish offense with their ag- gressive guarding tactics. Fenady totaled four points and set up many more on accurate floating passes to his teammates. Junior Norm Crawford also turned in some hue ball playing as he collected four points and contributed a lot of good backboard work in Dick McCloskey collected 12 and 11 points, respectively, but failed to stem the Blue and Ted Rokicki standout as he for an excellent floor game. White tide. Guard Gene Hickey was another Central meshed nine markers and accounted Robie's Cagers Knock Off Theilrish, 25-14 Proving beyond a doubt their right to the freshmen basketball champion- ship, Coach Leo Robie's cagers added another victory to their impressive record by displaying stellar basketball in turning back the Central frosh, 25-14, on the Irish hardwood last Friday afternoon. - Once again, Bob Rego, the Bears' ace forward, paced the llruins with eight points, followed closely by his teammate, Forward Christopher, who garnered six markers for his efforts. Main gun in the Irish attack was Don Lujica, with hve tallies to his credit. A nip and tuck battle ensued for the first three quarters with the Bears holding a slim five point mar- gin at the end of the third canto. The last quarter turned the tide as the Reserves Rack Up Seventh City Win Lagging until the middle of the third quarter, the Woodward cubs took a lead and broke away from the tough Central Irish for a 32-24 vic- tory. Behind by scores of 8-6 at the quar- ter and 13-12 at the half, Woodward found the range and with Lohmeyer leading the onslaught and excellent teamwork adding to the cause, the game was pulled out of the fire. Lohmeyer's efforts continued into the fourth quarter and with the com- bined efforts of Stewart, Central found it an overwhelming lead that confronted them. Doreher hit eight for the Shamrocks but was led by Stewart at 10. Lohmeyer had eight. Whitney and Suszka had six apiece. Bruins swept through for nine points while the Irish managed only three. Jack Smith AMERKS STOPPED IN PLAYOFF FOR CROWN Following three decisive triumphs over the Waite Americans to end the regular bowling season, the Amerk keglers were still denied the cham- pionship because of a league tie with the Macomber bowlers. This made necessary a playoff three game series to decide who should cop the crown. In true championship form, the Woodward team, paced by Ed Simi- niak's 186, swept the first match by eight pins, the score being 817-809. From then on, unfortunately, the Mechs took the situation well in hand and blasted the pins for a three game total of 2621, eopping the last two games, while the Americans chalked up a 2423 three game total. Thus the Macomber Americans now reign as the kingpins of their league, taking the title from a game defending championship squad from Woodward. Mel Sobecki, Woodward's sensation- al young bowler who rose to city-wide fame two weeks ago by rolling'an amazing 707 to lead the entire city, once again proved the pace maker of the Bears with a 555 three game total. Mel also set the pins down for the high single game of 190. Instrumental in the Mech's triumph were Richard Bak and Jim Benedette, the former smashing through for a 574 and the latter making a 551 score. Benedette proved to be the high single game bowler with a rousing 215. In the Waite encounter, the Amer- icans completely blasted the Indians off the alleys with a 2565 total to the East Sider's 2183 pins. Once again, sparkling Mel Sobecki led the three triumphs with a torrid 611 total and a terrific single game of 243. Best man for the Indians was J. Lippert with a 512 total. In the National League, the Wood- ward keglers fell to the wrath of the Macomber five, dropping two of the three games. Paul Kolasinski led the Bears' cause with a 459 total fol- lowed closely by Glen R-ose with 457. Top man in the Mech's attack was J. Bagrowski with 484 pins.

A. and any other students interested in the teaching profession. In the movie was brought out the fact that low wages, over crowded con- ditions in the classrooms, and lack of respect for teachers, were the greatest contributing factors for the shortage of teachers. Also brought out in the pic- ture was that the situation was bright- ening and that in the future teachers would h a v e better w a g e s and conditions. Mr. Clyde Van Tassel showed the film in room 307. A short business meet- ing was held before the movie was shown, which reminded the meember of an important meeting to be held March 9.

MEANING OF PARENTHOOD IS TOPIC The meaning of parenthood was the topic Mr. and Mrs. Willard Smith discussed to the personal standard classes in room 124, Tuesday, March 2. Miss Angela Abair started this first hour assembly by introducing the guest speakers. Both speakers alternated in telling their opinion of parenthood. There always have to be two people to han- dle the job of developing a personal- ity for their children, stated Mr. Smith. Responsibility, privilege, and joy are the three aims that each par- ent should thrive for in raising a child. Mrs. Smith told the students that there are two important facts which has to develop in a child. They are: self'-respect and self-confidence. Both parents agreed that it is a privilege to have children and develop them into good citizens. Questions were asked by the students after the discussion. Mrs. Smith is a former teacher of Libbey, and Mr. Smith teaches at the University of Toledo. Councilman Galvin Guest Speaker Toledo's youngest councilman, Willi- am Galvin, was the guest speaker last week Friday at the junior class meet- ing. Also invited as guest was the sen- ior class. 1 Mr. Galvin clearly explained the func-I tioning of the city council body. He then expressed his opinion of the Woodward students writing letters to the council, urging the passing of the proposed stadium plan. Mr. Galvin thought this was a splended plan of revealing the affirmative side of the issue, a definite change in the proced- ure from the usaul trend of letters writ ten to the council. Usaully, he stated, that the council only received letters voicing the negative side. George Rohrer's boys chorus enter- tained the audience by singing two selections. WHITNEY VISITS Woodward will be host to Whitney on the Junior Town Meeting of the air March 30. Are Civil Liberties Endangered? will be the topic. All essays must be turned in by March 15.

DEBATE HELD A debate was held last Thursday, February 26, the question discussed was Do you think we should have a world federal government? There were four speakers on the subject. One of the four was a graduate of W-oodward. Two were opposed and two were for the world federal government. Juniors and seniors were invited. Hi . Grand-Pop! If anyone has noticed our principal C.C. LaRue with an exceptionally happy air about him and and grinning from ear to ear, you'll know something wonderful has come into his life. Yes, on Monday March 1, Mr. LaRue was put into the category of new grand- pops and from now on can proudly boast about hi baby grandaughter Willa Lee. This little future Woodwardite fwe hopel was born to Mr. 8: Mrs. Leland Shanteau's at St. Vincent hospital weighing all of seven pounds. Little Miss Shanteau was named after her grandmother whose name was Willa and her proud papa Leland. Mrs. LaRue's only comment on the new addition to the family was It's awfully small and hasn't opened it eyes yet. Mrs. Shanteau is a graduate of the class of 1932. Heartiest congratulations go to Mr. LaRue and his family and when are you going to pass the cigars out, Grandpa?

Welever Calls For Track Men Coach Doc Welever has announced that all boys who are interested in track should report after school at 3:00 for practice. THE WOODWARD TATTLER F.T.A. Plans I Progressing - LTHOUGH the Future Teachers of America has just begun its climb to recognition this year, its many ideas are already flourishing and taking root in the enthusiastic and co-operative minds of its members, advisor, and followers. This group has come up with the idea of a ref- erence room , containing all the available material on colleges and universities, to be set up in the room located between 216 and the library. The members of the club will take charge of the di- rection and up keep of this room throughout the day. In this way they will be able to keep all of the college-conscious students up to date on information pertaining to these institutions. Anoth- er idea of the F. T. A. is to post all ofthe in-coming college pamphlets on the bulletin boards of junior and senior study hall, 219, . In the eyes of this writer, this is a vast step in manifesting literacy into clubs and a cultural gain to Woodward, for with reference material posted andQon hand to who ever seeks information regard- ing a college, it will offer an imaginative viewpoint concerning college entrance. In this organization we can see a group striving together for higher positions for themselves, for others, for their school and for their country. Are You Eligible For Membership? BOUT this time every year the taking of juniors into the honor society is begun by W. F. Rohr. Members of this organization are not selected by anyone, or are they chosen according to person- alities, characters or features. A 3.3 scholastic index must be had to be eligible for this group. Such an average is acquired in this way. An A is equal to four points: B,3g C 25 D,l. Af- ter the semester grades have been posted, they are added up and an average is found, this is called the scholastic index. ' There are no activities connected with this orga- nization except a luncheon in May. when the ju- niors, who are to be members, are invited. Chorus Attains High Position ITH George Roher's return from the armed services, a boy's chorus was organized under his leadership. After two years the chorus has been improved by eliminating some voices, and culturing others, until now it is composed of a pick- ed group that ranks in musical activities of our school, and is beginning to find a place, and a name, in the city. Congratulations are in the offering to Mr. Roher for his fine work and laudable sayings bestowed to each of the boys who compose this outstanding group.

Jack cashed in 95 mark- ers in the City League to finish in the top ten scorers while gar- nering 79 points in the eight non-league games. Capturing second place on the Bear point-getting list was liob Rutkow- ski who accounted for 79 markers in the city and 57 against the out-of- towners to achieve a season's total of 136 tallies. Bob scored the majority of his points on his hook shots and keyhole push specialty while Smitty ac- cumulated his total on dribble-in-layups and pivot shots. Next came Bob Aubry who gained all but 4 of his points in the final 8 games. Aubry fashioned 56 points in five league games and tallied 49 markers in only four non-league contests. However, junior Ted Rokicki amassed more tallies in the City League than Bob did as Ted swished 74 points to come close to Rutkowski's second place mark. Rokicki capitalized on accurate- long shots for a good deal of his counters. Fifth place was taken by Ray Varner as he hit for 59 tallies with Ed Houghtaling taking sixth spot on a 57 point mark. Next in order comes Norm Crawford with 445 George Fenady, 38g Dave Saygers, 365 Paul Miller, 313 and Jim Chubner, 29. In the scoring columns, L denotes total in City League and NL gives the points against non-league opposition. Stewart, DeBord Pace Lightweights Juniors Ralph Stewart and Jack DeBord, both veterans of last year's championship cage team, were the one-two punch in the reserve's scoring attack for this season. Stewart, a classy ballhandler and adept shot, is at the top of the list with a grand total of 142 points, while DeBord, a special- ist in the set shot, racked up 115 markers. Next in line for scoring honors is Sophomore Jim Suska, also pushing over the century mark with 107 tal- lies. Coach Ted Szelagowski's other three regulars-Lehr Whitney, Dick Bieniek and Jerry Lohmeyer-are well up in the scoring race with 90, 50 and 47 points, respectively. The lightweight team's record for the season was seven wins and five losses in city league competition, while against non-league foes they col- lared eight triumphs without a single setback. SMITH SELECTED ON ALL-TOLEDO Versatile Jack Smith, Woodward's rangy center and the team's leading scorer, received a berth on the To- ledo Blade's second team in the all- city basketball selections, the only Polar Bear to place in these awards. Along with Smith on the second team were Gene Hickey, Central, Nick Romano, Macomber, Ken Bru- baker, Macomber, and Eddie Elliot of Scott. First string selections were, oddly enough, all centers from their re- spective teams. Jim Maher, DeVil- biss high jumping center and the leading scorer of the city along with Jerry McCloskey, Central's 6 ft. 3 in. center and the second top scorer of the city were the first two selected. Clark Cottrill, Scott's colored hook shot artist, Dan Seeman, fine defen- sive player from Waite, and Paul Geyer, southpaw pivot man from Lib- bey, were the other three players who received these coveted nominations. McCloskey and Geyer of the first string positions are juniors, as is Gene Hickey, a selection on the sec- ond team. Lightweights Lose To Mechs In Final Game Losing to the Craftsmen reserves, the lightweights went down to a score of 34 to 29. The Craftsmen held the advantage by playing on their own door. In the first game between Woodward and Macomber, the Craftsmen lost by one point as the score was 24 to 23. In the first quarter, the Bears trail- ed when the score was 7 to 10 and after that trailed all the way. Sieler of Macomber sparked the Mechs with 11 points and Shelly was next as he got 8 points. The Bears' sparkplug was Jim Suska with 7 points and Jerry Loh- meyer was high also with 6 points. nce the game was underway, the Mechs led and never lost the lead. The Bears have won 7 and lost 5 games during the season. Central Cops Crown As Bears Lose, 37-29 Playing listless ball from start to finish, Woodward's Bruins took a 37-29 lacing from Macomber last Friday on a three game card at the T. U. Field House which saw Central cop the city championship by tripping Waite, 39-29, finishing ahead of DeVilbiss' Tigers who were edged, 45-43, by Scott in an overtime battle. Scoring was slow in the first quar- ter of the Mech-Bear tussle as only Jack Smith was able to tally for Woodward. Wootie Gearheart and Kenny Brubaker paced the Crafts- men attack as Macomber managed a 7-2 edge going into the second period. Gearheart continued to lead the scoring in the second quarter and at one time Macomber had a command- ing 15-4 lead. However, Smith, Bob Aubry, Ray Varner and Ted Rokicki combined to cut the margin to 19-12 at halftime. In the third quarter, Woodward couldn't hit a scoring kick and the Bears lagged badly at the three- quarter mark, 28-18. Finally, in the final period, Rokicki waxed hot for the Bruins and his three long field goals pulled Woodward up to a 29-33 deficit in the final minute and a half. But the Mechanics rose to the occa- sion as Paul King and Center Bru- baker dropped in fielders to clinch the contest for Macomber. Gearheart was the big scoring gun as he connected for 10 markers while Brubaker and Rokicki each had 9 tallies. Jack Smith proved he de- served all-city honors by controlling the backboards and totaling seven points.

Amerks Eliminated In Bowling Tournament Paced by Mulopalos and his 572 to- tal, the DeVilbiss Tigers edged the Amerks in the bowling tournament by winning 2 of 3. In the first game it was close with Malopalo's 'l90 giving the edge to the Tigers. In the second he hit the pins for a 217 but was second to team- mate Buettner, who had a 223. In the third game Sobecki showed his stuff with a 190, along with Bieniek's 179, to give the Bears their only win: 843-810. By the result of these games the Amerks were eliminated from any further competition. Stan Berezowski had the high three game total for the Bears as he hit the pins for a 502. Mulopalos had 572, Buettner, 508. I FACULTY TILT FEATURES LAME DUCKS . AGAINST THE BALD HEADED BUZZARDS Fueding, fussing and fighting will reign in the Boys' gym, Monday, during the B schedule when the faculty will present its annual cage thriller. Typical names for the teams have been selected with Captain Leo Penquin Robie leading the Lame Ducks into battle against the powerful Bald Headed Buzzards, led by Captain Watson Jughead Welever. Each team is loaded with star studded material, all eager and ready to do or die for a triumph. Along with Captain Robie on the sparkling Lame Duck crew are Mauler Joe Stobinski, shy Elmer 'fJuice Vorderburg, the Trenton Terror, Joe Dynamite Dence, Lincoln Smiley Clark, Arnold Moneybags Brown who swears he has not bribed the other team, Lee Dynamo Rynder, and the Ducks' ace in the hole, Ted Twenty-One Szelagowski. Floyd Lords will be the Florence Nightingale of the Lame Ducks. In other words, the waterboy. The Ducks will be under the capable guidance of their cagy mentor, Betty Ollendorf. . Turning the spotlight on the equally powerful Bald Headed Buzzards, we found a menacing collection of stellar cagers. Besides Captain Doc Welever are such prominent cagers as Wilson Buckets Weis, Arturo Smith, typical of his team nickname and chief competitor of Szelagowski for the 21 title, Virgil Slugger Sloan, Roman All-Over Scherer, Charlie Pop LaRue, Joy To the World Morhardt, Paul Poison Thomae and George Atlas Rohrer. Keeping the boysf '21 in tip top shape will be every- body's pal, jokester S. B. Crouse. Directing the Buzzards in the skirmish will be Coach Catherine McClure. Cheers will be led by peppery Tessie Kaminski and her deep voiced partner, Mrs. Eva Leu. To add the legal touch to the contest, Skip Aubry and Lehr Whitney will be the whistle toting referees. Last year found the Polecats, paced by Doc Welever's sixteen points, taking a close contest from the Wildcats. Price of admission for this spectacular event is twenty cents.

Teachers to whom a student goes to during an assembly period, will have to acknowledge that the student came to her and to no other place. Teachers will have pads of paper to be used starting next week. Every time a student leaves the ro-om dur- ing the assembly, he will carry one of these slips. Joe Stobinski and his print shop boys printed these slips for the teach- SYS. Unsats To Be Issued Unsatisfactories for the first quarter second semester are being written by the teachers and are due in the office Tuesday, March 9. These unsats will be issued to pupils on Thursday, March 11. Representatives To Be Council Guests In order to explain the functions and activities of the Student Council, a special assembly with all homeroom representatives and their alternates attending, will be held the first week after spring vacation.

Konop and Schaub To Attend Girls' State Again this year a junior girl will at- tend the Buckeye Girls' State. She will be sponsored by the American Legion Auxiliary, Department of Ohio. The purpose of Girls state is to ed- ucate our young women in the duties, privileges, right, and responsibilities of American citizenship, to give to these future citizens in a realistic manner, and opporunity to learn the problems of government with special emphasis upon the contribution women can make to the welfare of the city, country, state and nation. E v e r y member of Girls' State will have a dednite function in the government of the state. A board consisting of a Director, Assistant Director, the Dean of Govern- ment, Assistant Dean of Government, D i r e c t o r of Counselor, Director of Health and a Director of Pulic Rela- tions will supervise. Girls' State is located on the campus of Capital University, Columbus Ohio. It will be open from June 20, to June 27, 1948. An alternate will be chosen, so if the case arises that if the first gial cannot attcnd, the units priviledge of sponsor- ship will not be forfeited. This year two units of the American Legion are sponsoring a girl, thus two girls from Woodward will attend. These girls were chosen by the History teach- ers and Miss Amie Miller. Joanne Ko- nop and Charlotte Schaub will attend this Girls' State. Shirley Foxe was sent last year. She was elected Mayor of the of her city. Rohr Planning Annual Ford Trip Every year about this time plans for the annual Ford trip are made by W.F. Rohr. This year the trip will take place on Thursday, April 15, and the factory, not the museum, will be emphasized. Last year about 240 boys took the trip, but this year Mr. Rohr hopes to have 300. The buses will leave school at 9:00 and return about 4:30. Lunch will be eaten in the factory cafeteria. Mr. Nullaly, director of guest rela- tions has made the arrangements with Mr. Rohr and Mr. Fisher will plan the tour through the factory. Although it was hoped that the Bar and Strip Mill would be visited, this will be im ossible because of reconstruction work being done there. Price of this trip is 32.00 and reser- vations are being made in room 325. Accompanying the boys will be O. M. Thompson, Joy Mohrhardt, Joe Stobin- ski, Charles Staneart, Roman Scherer, Lincoln Clark. Clyde Van Tyssel, and W. F. Rohr. These trips are sponsored by the En- gineering Society under the direction of Mr. Rohr. SENIOR STUDENT TAKES VACATION How would you like to spend three weeks aboard a United States aircraft carrier sailing the high seas to South America and basking in the golden rays of the sun while on the way? Sounds inviting, doesn't it? Well this was the fate of a senior, Dick Steger, during th period from February 5 to the 26. Fortunate Dick, a member of Naval Reserves, left early Saturday morning, February 5, aboard a modern Pullman train bound for Norfolk, Virginia. Fol- lowing customary Navy details, Dick and the rest of the crew boarded the U. S. aircraft carrier, Saipan, and from Norfolk deported for Caracas, Venezue- la. The voyage lasted six days without a stop, after which the ship docked in the South American port for five days. Much to the despair of Mr. Steger, he was only permitted six hours liberty on shore. While in Caracas, Dick marched in an elaborate parade in honor of the Venezuelan president. Newsreels were taken of the gala affair so don't be sur- prised if you see Dick Steger in the mo- vies in a few weeks. Departure time arrived and allowing for only one stop at Trinidad, the car- rier followed its course straight back to Norfolk. Purpose of this cruise was to give the boys in the Naval Reserves a practical training cruise, while at the same time being a good will token from the Uni- ted States. When asked his opinion of the cruise, Dick calmly replied, The trip was all right except for the food, the fact that we didn't get paid, and we didn't have enough liberty. 'English Students To Compete . In City Wide Letter Contest BOOKLET PREPARED FOR LaRUE VISIT Assembling a seven page mimeo- graph booklet to be sent to grade schools in the Woodward district was the task undertaken by Barbara La- mont, and Delores Ragan, seniors, Alberta Miller and Carla Williams, juniors. Containing information for incom- ing freshmen, the booklet will be ex- plained to eighth grade students by their teacher before Mr. LaRue makes his annual visit to grade schools in this district after spring vacation. Going over this booklet will enable the students to understand better what Mr. LaRue will say. Miss Norma Bokus ran the booklets off and Mrs. Eva Leu's typing classes typed the stencils. Sophs To Take Over In preparation of the sophomore is- sue of the Tattler which will be pub- lished on May 14, the sophomores in the 6th hour journalism have decided which staff position they would like to have. After deciding, they are given a chance to work on their position. Since the sophomore class dance is on May 14, the sophomore journalism class puts out the paper. If your paper reads different on the 14th of May, don't give the credit to anyone but the sopho- mores. K Letters, based on the topic What It Means to Live in America, are being written by freshman, sopho- more, junior, and senior English classes. Students are to write 300 to 500 word letters to a real or ima- ginary person living in a foreign country. The two best letters from each grade will be submitted to the Board of Education by Mrs. Hazel MacManamon. Mrs. Phyllis Lentz and Miss Dor- othea Bishop will screen freshman letters, Miss Eleanore Murphy and Mrs. Marie Ersig, sophomorelettersg Miss Edith Murphy and Miss Han- nah Shaw, junior lettersg and Mrs. Hazel MacManamon, senior letters. This is a city-wide contest with each high school participating. Open- ing date of the contest was March 8 and all letters must be turned in by March 19. Two prizes are offered for the best letters from each grade. First prize is a radio with a world- wide band, and second prize is a table model radio. The letters are not to be signed, but name, grade, and school, will be put on an attached sheet of paper so that the judging will be impartial. 1 - Xl G9 1 ITII edu mme 7 li 1 Yfw Woodward TATTLE R Vol. XX Toledo, Ohio, March 12, 1948 No. 23 City-Wide Zet Meeting Attended Members of Woodward's Zetalathean Literary Society's cabinet attended a tea and lecture, sponsored by the De- vilbiss Chapter of Zets, at the Toledo Museum of Art Sunday, March 7 at 2:00 m. p At 3 o'clock the girls heard a lecture by Miss Kathryn Bloom, Museum in- structor, on the Grand Manner in Eng- lish Painting in gallery 35. Paintings o Sir Joshua Reynolds, Hogarth, Gains- borough and Blake were discussed. At approximately 3:45, the entire group assembled for tea and cookies. Each school present gave a report of the act- ivities of their clubs. Plans for a city- wide Zet dance were also started. Woodward was represented by the followin : Patricia Stickroth, president, Phyllis Sosnowicz, vice-president, Phyl- lis Wolfe, secretarygNanette Foran, re- porterg Nancy Harter, Chaplaing and Joanne Konop, sergeant-at-arms. Mrs.Bessie Burkett, advisor, was un- able to attend. Two Seniors To Appear On Interview Program Would you like to be on the radio? Well, P h y l li s Sosnowicz and Forest Black are going to be. On the sidewalk interview program, I mean. They are goin to be excused from sc h ool on Monday, March 15 to appear on the pro- gram. They will then sit through a mo- vie at the Paramount Theater while we are slaving away here in school Qnice huh?J In co-peration with radio station W. S. P. D. , Mr Bowsher, superintendent of schools, sent a le t t e r to each high s c h o o l principal requesting that two pupils from each school attend this pro- gram. The program is held in the lobbey of the Paramount Theater at 12:15 p. m. The topic of the discussion will be cur- irent events. Freshmen Journey To Vocational Schools Journeying to Whitney and Macom- ber Vocational High Schools were all freshmen interested in attending these schools. These students were to report to the school auditoriums for attend. ance checking at nine o'clock. At Whitney, Miss Wooden, principal, related plans for the day and then sen- ior girls gave informative talks on the different courses offered. These voca- tions range from foods to cosmetology. Tours of the school was conducted by sophomore girls. A recreation period followed for a half hour in the gym. After lunch, each girl was requested to make out a choice card. Teachers interviewed each girl personally to determine .f the gir would profit by attending Whitney. This system is necessary since there is such a large group who wish to enter next year' ards will then be sent through the mail to all girls who have been accept- ed. All visiting girls were dismissed at two o'clock. Taking attendance was the first thing of the agenda at Macomber. One of the most interesting events was a visit con- ducted of seventeen various shops. This gave the boys a chance to see the shops which pertain to the vocations they have chosen. Following, all those who intend going to Macomber next year assembled in the library to take a required test. A thirty minute period was devoted to the seventy-five question test. While the test were being conducted, the re- mainder of tne boys saw some educa- tion movies on Ohio, Michigan, and India. Following, lunch, which was served in the cafeteria the principal of Macomber spoke on the advantages of the courses offered. Grades determine if the boys will be accepted to that school or not. Dear Editor, It seems that we students that eat in the cafeteria fifth hour don't get a chance at the foodthe 4th hour does. It is this, or else the cafeteria doesn't fix enough food to supply the demand of the students. One day last week by the time the end of the lunch line came around there were no more lunches left, and what little was left contained no meat or anything else substantial. Now we realize that this is Lent and it is difficult to plan meals at such a time especially when some students are Catholic and some aren't, but we think the students who are of Catho- lic Religion and have fast days can watch their own diets. It isn't fair for the students Catholic or otherwise who don't Fast on these days to have to be deprived of a good lunch for the sake of those who don't have the will power to refuse a lunch that contains meat. Up till now we haven't had a com- plaint against the Student Lunches. They've been fine, and bes..de you can't please everyone. Since Lent the lunches have been small and not as good as thety usually are. I we have been misinformed as to the cause of the conditions of the lunch- es as they have been recently, we would appreciate it if you would clear up our misunderstanding. Sincerely, Some of the boys in ' fiifth hour lunch Larsen Speaks At Lenten Service s In the second of the three Lenten services which are sponsored by the Hi-Y, Reverend Larsen spoke to the students wishing to attend these meetings. The service was held Thurs- day, March 11, during the assembly period in the auditorium. Father Harrington, principal of Central Catholic high school, will bring these services to a climax at the next Lenten service which will be held Thursday, March 19. Being yearly Lenten meetings, either the Girls' Special Chorus or the Boys' Chorus open the program and a member of the Hi-Y or Y-Teen clubs introduce the speaker. Bob Johnson is chairman of these lservices. THE WOODWARD TATTLER l 9 Leon s Earsays In case you have wondered why the juniors are wearing those wide grins, well they will soon be the sole owners of the 1949 Senior class rings Oh Hap- py Day! Pat Cigileo wanted his name in the Editorial Section, but the Tattler Staff didn't seem to like the idea. Will this do, Pat? Congratulations are extended to Cora Jane Doran- A former student at Woodward, Cora Jane recent- ly became a mother. Rudy Renz and Phillip Hall have done it again! They have written a sketch for the Junior class play. It's really a killer. Clarence Fyffe has now obtained that new look. Of course, you have seen those sharp glasses. For the latest in hair styles see George Morris- The girls sure love that butch. If you know the answer to the following question. please put it in the box outside the Tattler Office. Who is Dick Ubl's new Hedy Lamarre? Did you know that Pat Pawlak likes- - - - - Opps ' can't tell. Ed Wisniewski, former Woodwardite, is now home on leave after two years of navy life. Ed was seen roaming our halls last week. This must ac- count for. the- happy smiles of Helen and Jane Wis- niewski Last week Ernie Simpson was passing out cigars to members of his Physics class. Congratulations Ernie! This master mind recieved the highest grade on a test in his class. Did you know there is a shortage of notebook paper in Woodward? Mr. Sherer happened along when Forrest Black and Joe Shibley were working a Trig problem on a locker. Mike Zarn has fat lasth gone mad. Last week she was ransacking every available locker. Mike was a little too careless with a baby picture. One of those on a bear rug, you know! I can't do a thing with my hair. These words are familar to Jack Armstrong. It seems Jack didn't have very good luck with his Toni Wave. Students! Please compliment Steve Kania on his. Woodward sweater. Steve recieved a letter for run- ning track. Is he proud! Just because you can knock the boys off their feet, Sally, a wall is different. While playing basket- ball Sally Steger bumped into a wall. She is now the possessor of three stitches. Again this week, the Tattler adds two more names to the list of Steady Shmoes . This lucky couple is Ray Barker and Carol Heath. Have you seen our new member on the staff? He's very small, has feathers and enjoys sitting on the T. O. window sill, outside in the cold weather. It's Stormy our pet pidgeon. Pat Pope is really worried! Poor Pat hasn't re- cieved an invita ion to the Junior Prom. If you want some one to worry with just come to the T. O During the morning dances the strangest things can happen. Sally Dickey and Marion Krause were dancing backwards! Well, maybe they got up on the wrong side of the bed. Mrs. McManamon is going to be locked out of 216 some of these days. It seems Jack Hamblin is going to turn the lock. Wonder why certian juniors are calling Mike Zydel Diaper Boy. Did you hear the latest? Bob Johnson is a wolf! At least that's what Marion thinks. Contributions to the Dramatic Society would be greatly appreciated. The money would be used to purchase glasses for Ralph Wise. He just can't seem to read his lines rigth in the Tin Herof' Some basketball players never quit practicing. Jack DeBord devotes half his lunch time throwing paper wads in the cafeteria baskets. Keep it up Jack and you will make Varsity. Don King doesn't want it known that he has a slight interest in Norma Hall, freshman, so don't tell anyone. Personal Problems .......-.......-i Mrs. KuKu Komments Dear Mrs. Kuku, Rita Melczak seems to like to go up to the canteen very much. Is there any special reason for this?

Q11-mn-11mm.11. r..r mrmmrm..-..M. I- I A The Choice Of 320 Can't Be Wrong! O YOU, we proudly present the largest music department in Toledo public high schools for examination. You may not be aware of this, but beyond a shadow of a doubt, the fact that 320 students are taking part in this school's musical curriculm, enables W. H. S. te claim that honor. How does this happen year after year? A great deal of the credit goes to Edgar Sorton who makes an annual spring tour to each district elementary school, acompanied by his present musical aggre- gations. The object of these concerts is to inform and interest the eight grade graduating classes in the. Woodward music department. This year our orchestra is composed of 26 members, the band 54, 82 are enrolled in chorus, mixed chorus, fifth peri- od,62, the special chorus has a total of 39 aspiring, potential Rise Stevens' on its roll callg 10 stuents are striving to master the fundamental studies of popular dance bands. We also have a group of 41 boys, the newest and most rapidly improving musi- cal group in the school, that is directed by George Rorer. The work of a six piece beginner's band is also supervised by Mr. Rohrer. Certainly Mr. Sorton and Mr. Rohrer deserve re- cognition for t h e s e wonderful achievements and for their efforts in advancing the musical standards in Woodward. We appreciate it and we hope that the majority of next year's freshmen class will plan to Say it with music on their choice cards. Dear Councilman: I Think--- i T SEEMS that the letters we wrote to the mayor and the city councilman, on March first and sec- ond have had some effect on the council's sched- ule, for there had grown in the last few days a question of uncertainty centered about the validity of some of the lots that compose Wilson Park. An- other issue as illustrated by Mike DiSalle, mayor, is: Although new park area has been bought, it is unknown whether old park land can be sold. Six of the lots, forming the greater part of the area needed for the stadium were obtained for play- ground purposes. If they were purchased by bonds designating for playground purposes they could not be used for any other purpose. Evidently, our letters have stirred the councilmen to the realization that we don't haye a stadium, we do want one and they are beginning to see our side. Since our letters have made such a result, the practice of group writing should be employed more often. School committees also could be formed to go to council and state our views so that we may some- day realizes our goal a home stadium . Unsats: One Strike And Your Out! NCE again the time has arrived for the issu- ing of unsatisfactories and this is your opp- ortunity to bring those failing grades to at least a passing, or an average level. VV hen an un- satisfactory report is received by a student it does- n't mean all hope should be abonded, it is merely a way of warning the pupil that if he doesn't get on his toes a failure is probable. Above all else, teachers should not be blamed for the distribution of these unfair reports, since they are only following rules, which state they can- not fail anyone without giving out these unsats and warning the student. It shoud be realized that these unsats are for your own benefit and when one is recieved we should work harder to see that it doesn't happen again. First Hour Classes Or---Duh - h - h After dodging erasers, pencils, and the mad clutches of the Feature Editor, I made my escape tinto the quiet Woodward halls. With nothing bet- ter to do, I decided to glance in at some of Wood- ward's brilliant? students.Upon glancing in room 126, Fadwa Michel Dave Saygers, and Jim King were going through the morning ritual of kneeling and singing hail our teachers to the most out- standing fplugj teacher in the Polor Bear region. Mr. Sheline of course. Turning up my collar and crawling past the dean's office, I glance inquisitive- ly into Miss Edith Murphy's class. Now here is an interested group of people! Ray Varner and Red Gardner are straining their brains over a close game of Tick Tack Toe. Leaving them to their English, it isn't until I reach room 3102 that I can find a student awake that is! These speedy characters have just finished a time test, and Raymond Haddad who received the,high- est speed is putting on his shoes and socks. Then came the fatal moment. The second hour bell rings and all the sleepy Shmoes come to life-- ane third I come to life. THE WOODWARD TATTLER 1 4 ,- A L. x s, 1 246 V- . f . . 5 . 2 'Tl- ' , p..e'LY-2 11.

'fri'i:.', IRISH STOP BRUIN S IN TOURN EY FRACAS Central's Irish romped into the semi-finals of the district tournament at the expense of Woodward's Polar Bears as the North Enders fell, 46-32, before the blistering last quarter at- tack of the city champions. Jerry McCloskey led the Irish onslaught with 16 points, mostly on unorthodox shots under the basket, while Gene Hickey rang the bell for 14 markers on set shots to the right of the foul circle. - Due largely to Bob Aubry's long swishing fielders from side court, the Bears stayed but a few points behind the Cherry Streeters up until the start of the final period. Then, however, after Woodward had pulled up to only a 28-30 deficit, Hickey put on a one-man show and slipped through the Bruin de- fense for four field goals on the fast break. The McCloskeys, Dick and Jerry, along with Al Marchal also chipped in with one fielder each to place the game out of reach of Woodward. Aubry connected for three 2-point- ers in the initial quarter and two more in the third period but could garner but one p-oint in the final canto as the Bears lagged 9-13, 16-19, and 25-30 at the end of the first three quarters. Ted Rokicki was the only other Bear to score consistently as he hit for 8 points as compared to Aubry's 12 total. VIKLSj:,-5 Sl-IVKTS The Leaders Club is planning to give their annual dance on April 23, in the girls' gym. It will be called the Leaders Leap. The following chairmen of committees were chosen for the dance: Joyce Young in charge of tickets, Irene Nakos, decorations, Pat Becker working on invitationsg Alice Rutkowski taking care of check- ingg Wanda Zientek heading pub- licityg Nancy Siebold in charge of clean-up. Pat Korrell and Kate Mikols are co-chairmen of this affair. 121 all PF Results of the after school tourna- ment are posted on the girls' gym bulletin board. The following two teams are tied for first place: the Reynolds Rockets, led by Dorothy Foss, and the Senior Skylarks whose captain is Dorothy Miller, coming in second are Tessie's Teamsters led by Theresa Kaminski, and third place goes to the Buckettes led by Judith Gust. H This week basketball skills tests were held in the girls' gym, These tests were composed of the following skills: fowl shooting, shooting for one minute, and test for passing accu- racy. For the accuracy tests, under hand and single over hand passes were used to hit a target. twenty feet away from the person. A perfect scort for the whole test is fifty points. ANNUAL JUNIOR - SENIOR CAGE ' GAME TO BE PLAYED WEDNESDAY Varsity basketball seniors will be displaying their cage tal- ents for the last time in Woodward uniforms when they engage their junior team mates in the traditional Junior-Senior clash to be played Wednesday, March 17, during the B schedule. Price of admission is twenty cents. Composing a formidable crew of seniors led by rangy Jack Smith, rebound specialist, Bob Aubry, high powered scoring punch, Southpaw Bob Rutkowski, also quite an adept backboard man, diminutive Ray Varner, and fleet-footed Put-Put Houghtal- ing, the senior class men rate the favorites. Expected to see plenty of action in the tilt are the other two seniors, cool George Fenady, now almost fully recovered from his shoulder injury, and skyscraper Dave Saygers, who is all set to lend his 6' 6 frame to the aid of the senior crew. Reserves Move Up To Varsity A Though lacking the superior height and reserve power of the seniors, the future varsity packs plenty of scoring power in aggressive Norm Crawford, 6' 1 center, agile Paul Miller, floorman Jim Chubner, and Ted Rokicki, lending aid to Crawford and Chubner for the backboard chores. Since there were only four juniors on this year's varsity squad, two reserve players, high scorers Ralph Stewart and Jack DeBord, both juniors, are being moved up on the underclassmen squad for this tilt. Proceeds of the encounter will be used to purchase warm up shirts to match the new uniforms bought this season. A wide selection of referees has been acquired for the game. Only two from a group of Elmer Vorderburg, Watson Welever, Leo Robie, Ted Szelegowski, and Virgil Sloan, will be picked to handle the whistle blowing task. , SPRING GRID PRACTICE TO COMMENCE SOON WITH EIGHT VETS RETURNING If the weather permits, the Woodward Polar Bears will have spring football practice about March 15. Teaching. football fundamentals and getting the boys into condition, will be the task of Coach Elmer Vorderburg. Through the capable leadership of Coach Vorderburg, the Bruins will again strive to take a better city league standing. Watson Welever will coach the backfield. Getting the boys to carry the ball and to understand the backfield tactics will be Coach Welever's job. Another important figure is none other than Joe Dence, equipment man- ager, who will get the boys into practice equipment. Mr. Dence will be assisted by his staff of waterboys. Equipment managers, who assist Joe Dence, are Henry Wieczorek, head managerg Mike Gusses, assistant head manager, and Don Wieczorek. Eight Veterans Return First string veterans are Royal Wagner, Don Reaume, Norm Crawford, Ralph Gardner, and Andy Nowak who play on the line. Backfield veterans are Ted Rokicki, Paul Miller, and Vince Gallo. Along with the veterans will be some of the lightweights who will be up to varsity this year. Nationals Advance In High School Tourney In the play-off games of the bowl- ing league, Woodwards Nationals, led by Gene Rose and his 537 score, took two out of three games. The Tigers took the first game very easily, scoring 809 to the 699 pins. In the second game, the keg- lers of Woodward took that game, 876 to 714. In the final game, the Bears took the game without much trouble. Leading the Bears for a two game victory was Gene Rose with 537 and followed by Glen Rose with 480. Sparking the Tigers was Harry Padebaugh with a score of 526 and Dick Shambaugh was second with 468. During a Leader's Club meeting the club decided on having pins for this year's distinctions. Barbara Lamount and Florice Keel took the girls' or- ders for the pins. FEDERATION BRUINS TIED Fon Tor SPOT Deadlocked at the top of league in the Downtown High School League are the Polar Bears of Woodward and the Tigers of DeVilbiss, each with six wins and a single blemish on their records. The Bruins' single defeat came at the hands of DeVilbiss while the Bengals were setback by the Macomber quintet. Last week's encounter with Waite proved to be a hectic battle with the Bears. finally edging out the Indians, 33-31. Intermission time found the Bear boys with an eight point mar- gin by virtue of the 15-7 halftime score. With Bob Carson, stellar Waite gridder proving himself' an adept cage man, the Indians closed the gap by six points, but were not able to overtake the stubborn Bruins. Scoring honors for the evening went to the Indian's Bob Carson with BEARS KNOCK SCOTT OUT OF TOURNAMENT Woodward's Polar Bears, who have built up quite a reputation as a great tournament team, took the first step toward the district finals in Northwestern Ohio Class A competition last week when they breezed past a surprised Scott squad, 36-23. In the other tilt on the card at the Field House, Sylvania tripped Clay, 49-38, to advance to the quarter - finals. Other tourney games last week found DeVil- biss drubbing Macomber, 57-46, and Whitmer upsetting Libbey,- 45-37, with both of the victors leaping to the semi-finals. In the Bear-Bulldog fray, the Blue and White zoomed in front at the start of the game -on Bob Rutkowski's long push shot, and proceeded to maintain an 8 to 10 point lead the entire game, never relinquishing the ea . Aubry Connects Twice Scott didn't threaten once while the Bruins piled up 11-4, 17-9, and 26-16 quarter scores with Ed Houghtaling pacing the first half attack and Bob Aubry taking over after intermission. At the beginning of the final period, Aubry virtually clinched the contest for the Bruins as he connected for two consecutive long heaves against the dispirit- ed Bulldogs to up the count to 30-16, Bears' favor. Noticeable throughout the fracas was Jack Smith's control of the back- boards aided by Bob Rutkowski and the scrappy Put-Put Houghtaling. Aubry, with six points in the final fanto, took point-getting honors as he amassed 12 points to top Ed Houghtaling's second place 9 total. Bill Geiger was high for the Bulldogs with 8 markers. Frosr Advance To Tournament Finals Rampaging to a stunning 40-16 triumph at Port Clintion in the Junior High Open tournament Leo Rob1e's Frosh catapulted to the finals by tramplmgthe hap- less Port Clintion Jr. High. Woodward was leading by 17-14 at the termination of the initial half but high scorers Frank Kwiatowski and Larry Haddad gained their shooting eyes in the second half and turned the game into a rout with every Bear see- ing action. In the other semi-final tilt Perrys- burg clipped Fremont St.,Joe 37-19, to qualify to meet Woodward in the 'dnals next Monday. Miss Catherine McClure received a letter from the DeVilbiss Girls' Ath- letic Society welcoming ten senior members of the Woodward Girls' Leaders Club to a Playday. The affair will be held on Friday, March 19, at 3:30 p.m. Girls are requested to bring their own suits and shoes. 14 markers.

QEd: The following report was sub- mitted by Mary Whitnack on the lecture given by George Freedley, New York dramatic critic, at the Town Hall Lecturel. lk 254 The lecture given by George Freed- ley, New York dramatic critic, Two Seats -on the Aisle was informative as well as entertaining. - In discussing the plays of the cur- rent -season, Mr. Freedley divided them first into two groups, revivals and new plays. Medea starring Judith Anderson is one of the popular revivals. Though the story of Medea is a rather depressing one, the acting of Miss Anderson is so superb that she surpasses any of the great leading ladies such as Helen Hayes, Katherine Cornell, -or Lynn Fontaine. The first of the new pictures that Mr. Freedley discussed was Com- mand Performancen. Despite the fact that it is a military and war picture and has an all male cast, it is being highly praised in New York. It is a play of mixed characteristics as you first see the hero, Paul Kelly, through the eyes of the villain, Jay Fassett- As the play progresses, one begins to realize that Mr. Kelly is a very wonderful person and Mr. Fassett is zz scoundrel and a coward. K'Tonight at 8:30 is a series of short plays written expressly for Noel Coward and Gertrude Lawrence. Since Mr. Coward was unable to take part and his substitute is not quite up to par, the burden falls upon Miss Lawrence. At one time she has to go through a very strenuous comedy routine, and as she is no longer young, this is no small feat. After she finishes the routine, she looks at the audience with such an appeal that you can almost hear her thinking, Don't you think l'm wonderful? I really did it! The two best plays of the season are A Streetcar Named Desire and Miz Roberts . Streetcar is a story of a family with -one good daughter and one had one, but because of the wonderful ability and acting, it turns out to be very unusual. Miz Rob- erts is the story of a tyrannical sea captain and the way in which his men seek revenge. It stars Henry Fonda, and I might add, several Hol- lywood players are now appearing on Broadway. Both -of these plays are candidates for the Pulitzer Prize. Other ones are the musical Al- legro 5 the ballet, - High Button Shoes g Angel in the'Wings g Make Mine Manhattan , with Sid Caesarg and Look Ma, I'm Dancing with Nancy Walker. The latter is espe- cially amusing and her song Pm Tired of Texas is said to be causing considerable talk in the Texas State Legislature. At this time, Mr. Freedley informed us that he was going to follow the actions of the two original 'stars of I Remember Mama and retire. Mr. Freedley's lecture was made even more charming by his New Yawk drawl. . A Nurse To Sponsor Movie ln order to interest girls in the nursing career a movie emphasing the importance of this vocation will be shown on Tuesday during seventh hour. Miss Hazel Coy, school nurse, is sponsoring this movie to be held in the auditorium for all girls. Stadel's Letter Praised ln a letter addressed to Joy li. Mohardt, Lieutenant M. Gladieux of the Toledo police, expressed grati- fication at receiving many interesting letters from the frosh here at Wood- ward. He especially commended Adolph Stadel for his extraordinary ,fine letter. ' After seeing that exciting basket- ball game UD this afternoon, it's hard to settle down to studying again.

Councilmen Answer Student Letters ' Letters from the councilmen were re- ceived Thursday, March 4, answering the students who wrote letters express- ing their wish for the proposed Wood- ward Hi Stadium. Thomas H. Burke answered each stu- dent individually. In order to bring the students who wrote him up to date on the matter, he pointed out the three im- portant factors that must be accom- plished before the stadium can be built. Mayor Disalle addressed his letter to the entire student body because it would have been impossible for him to answer each one individually. since he received so many. Locker Clean-up Planned On Friday of April 2, the Student Council will sponsor a clean-up day during the B schedule. The Student, Council will have a meeting on the pre- ceding Monday to make plans.

Teachers Hate To Leave Us , But Make Vacation Plans Anyway Some students think that the teach- ers of Woodward hate to leave them. Well, maybe you're right, but it seems they have already made plans for spring vacation.Even though Woodward's tea- chers should probably spend a week in some quiet rest home, here are some of the places they plan to go: Mr. and Mrs. Crouse ---will visit Ash- ville, North Carolina and the Smokey Mountains. Clyde Van Tassel--is going to Des- Moines, Iowa. G Mrs. O'Brien--this traveling lady will journey to Charleston, West Virginia. Joy Mohrhardt.-will visit relatives near Battle Creek, Michigan. Watson Welever-- Doc is looking forward to helping his wife with house cleaning? Mrs. Isla Van Vranken--just to prove typing isn't the only thing she is fast at , Mrs. Van Vranken will visit Ken- dallville, Indiana, Coldwater, and De- troit, Michigan. Miss Belle J oseph--will visit New York Mrs. Farrell-will fly to the capital Washington, D.C. Floyd Lords--this man isn't the' lazy type. He will be running errands for his wife. Miss Betty' Nelson- -this lady will be taking life easy. She plans to sleep away most of her vacation. Art Smith- -Chicago and Grand Rapids, Michigan are the destinations of Art and his wife. I was stuck for a way to end this story until I discovered Fred Reiper will spend his vacation working at the Plaskon Company in the glue depart- ment. H. Brown of N.O.M.A. Heard By Commercial Students A program by the lo cal chapter of the National Office Managment Asso- ciation wa s presented at -Woodward H i g h School on Monday, March 15, at 10:40 a.m. for Junior and Senior stud- ents enrolled in the commercial class- es.

Katie Mickols is president and Miss Marjorie Hamilton advisor. ,-,.......-..-.-1- Club To Curb Absence As a result of the many unexcused absences of Peri members at their meet- ings, it has been stipulated that they must present written excuses, contain- ing a valid explanation, when they are unable to be present. The latter should be given to the pres- ident of the Periclean Literary Society, Fadwa Mickel. She will determine the validity of the excuse. The omission of three consecutive meetings without a written excuse will result in the for- fiting of membership in the Peris. ..l,li...-i Meeting Scheduled All home room representatlves and alternates will be invited to attend a meeting, held on March 29, given by the Student Council. Each Student Council member must give a speech on how the Student Coun- cil operates and the duties of a Student Council member. After the day of the meeting the home room representive will tell the class about the meeting and will tell how the councils work. Since most people don't know about the works of the council, this will help the students to understand the council's duties to make the school a better organization.

One Third Of Student Body Recieved Warning Issues Unsatisfactory reports were given out last week Thursday with close to one-third of the entire student body receiving them. To be exact, 303 boys were presented with these warning issues while 166 girls received unsats. Even four veterans were given these slips. Leading the school for unenviable honor, were the freshmen boys with 95 having received unsats. Closely follow- ingwere the sophomore boys with 93, the junior males with 83, and last, the senior boys with 32 receiving unsats. Turning to the other half of the stu- dent body, We End the sophomore girls at the top with 65 having been presented with unsats. Other classes in their re- spective o rd e r are the freshmen fe- males with 48 recipients, the juniors with 36, and the senior girls with 17 on the unsat list. The record is even worse than the number of persons receiving these unsatisfactory reports, for many of the 469 recepients receiving two or three unsats apiece, truly a disgraceful record. English Class Collect Stamps Mrs. Hazel McManamon, at a recent teachers' meeting, announced her plan for the collection of stamps in all the English classes in order to buy a pho- nograph that can be used inthe English departments At the same meeting Mrs. McMana- mon announced that the freshman class had S185 for outside reading books. Miss Dorothea Bishop is chairman of the freshman classg Mrs. McManarnon, sophomore and senior classes, with S150 and S50 respectively, and Miss Hannah Shaw with S150 in the junior class. The player will be used by any Eng- lish class and an album of records is hoped to be secured. Clown Sign Arouses Interest To arouse interest in the Aeolian Club dance which is to be held April 30, the club has posted a clown on the bulletin board outside of Miss Helen Marie Griffin's room. Every- day 'that elapses, an article of cloth- ing will be added to the clown named Clippo. , Beneath the clown, a sign on the bulletin board stated that The Aeo- lian Club presents Clippol Guess what he will wear tomorrow -'pn i THE WOODWARD TATTLER Robie And His Squad Triumphant N CONTRAST to last year's cage situation when Woodward's varsity and lightweight teams cop- ped city championship and the freshmen failed to win the crown, this year's team standings were reversed in order as the freshmen, under the tute- lage of coach Leo Robie, smashed through to reign as kingpins in the City League. The varsity and reserves came far from capturing their titles. Unlike the other Woodward cage mentors, Coach Robie doesn't have any hand-picked talent placed at his disposal. When Ted Szelagowski starts look- ing for talent for his reserve squad, he has an en- tire freshmen class to choose from plus some jun- iors, who fail to make the varsity. Similarly, Varsity Coach Weis had an experienced group up from the reserves also a few veterans which isa tremendous help. However, Mr. Robie is faced with the problem every year of choosing the calibre of W.H.Sfs fu- ture varsity teams. But I'm sure that Mr. Robie will agree with us when we say that the freshmen themselves deserve the lion's share of the credit for coming through in such grand style. It's just like the old adage which says, You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make him drink. Coach Robie could teach his squad all he knows about the game but there's that elusive something referred to as fighting spirit which makes a winning ball team. However, we would like to do what we have taken three or four paragraphs to lead up to. And that is to sincerely congratulate Mr. Robie and his freshman team for winning the city championship. Spring Vacation Anticipated By All N APPROXIMATELY one hour, the usual three o'clock bell will ring. We're not try in g to be brainy, but this dismissal bell holds more signi- figance then that of just bringing another week of school to an end. Monday m o r n i n g, March 22, when you get up, scratch the frost from your bedroom window and gaze out onto the white wide W o r l d on the first morning of your spring vacation. Maybe we'll be wrong and yet we might be right. At any rate, we know you'll be on vacation. Whether or not the spirit of spring is evident in the weather, it will he present in the mind, heart and spirit of every student and t e a c h e r. The at mosphere of relief will be overwhelming. The tea- chers will be relieved of the students for one week and that most certainly will be a r e lie f for them. On the other hand, the kids will be relieved of the teachers and I don't think we need to explain any more a b o u t that. At any rate we hope everyone takes advantage of this vacation because once it's over, there's one long, hard grind until June rolls around. Really enjoy ourselves! Don't eat much Easter and donlt forget to wear all your holiday finery when you come back Monday, March 29. Faculty Game Has Serious Side AUGHS, smiles, and wise remarks filled the gym last week on Friday at the expense of the daring faculty members who performed in the colorful faculty basketball game. Without any doubt, everyone who witnessed this spectacle thoroughly enjoyed it. But have you ever thought of the serious side of this event? Remember, the participants aren't in the pink of condition as you must have noticed. Still they ignore the chance of injury and undue embarrassment to benefit the school. Maybe you didn't know, but the proceeds of this game are used to purchase the necessary equipment for the spring sports, track, golf, tennis, and baseball. So the next time you gaze upon the physical features of your male pedagogues and begin to smile, think of what a wonderful sport he was to provide you with a hilarious show and at the same time do a creditable service to the school. Advantages of Services Recognized URING the season of Lent, the Hi-Y and Y-Teen clubs sponsored a series of services through which students, no matter what their denomi- nation, received spiritual guidance. At each of these sessions it was arranged to have ministers of the various religions speak. The talents of the Boys' Chorus were also employed to add a musical touch to the services. ' On the days these activities were held a religious atmosphere was added to the school. Through the work of these two organizations it was once again proven -that Catholic, Protestant, Hebrew, and Ne- gro can work together in peace and harmony. Eleviation Of John Doe l ' Everyone has wondered who J. Q. Public is and what the average John Doe thinks, or in order to eleviate this profoundly difficult question Dr. John Heinrich Von Poof of the Polytechnic institute of horses decided to follow an average person to see what he acts like. First Mr. Doe got off the bus at Adams and Hur- on, and stepped in that open chute next to the street, After climbing out he waited for 50 minutes across the street from Lasalles' just to see the pretty models go by. Yep, you gussed it, just 'as they came out, 6 busses rolled up and he missed them. Then our hero decided to walk d ow n the street and look at the windows. This window had Easter chicks, this window had Easter clothes and this window - oops! Having seen the town, Mr. Doe went back to the bus station. After waiting for 20 minutes in the cold air his bus came and he was just about to get on when the driver yelled That's enough and slam- med the door. Pulling his nose out John Doe wait- ed for another 20 minutes for another bus and another broken nose. Did he eX er get on the bus and go home? We don't know for Dr. John Heinrich Von Poof, caught a case of pneumonia, and kicked the scalped. 1You thought I was going to say bucket! So-ends anoth- er saga ofthe topsy turvy life of John Doe. And in memory to Dr. John Heinrich Von Poof and his great scientific work every building in the city is required by law to dedicate one room to our friend John.

THE WOODWARD TATPLER I ' JU IORS HA D IORS SURPRISE DEFEAT iaEAR Fnosl-I CAPTURE Pom cuNToN MEET Coach Leo Robie's Freshmen squad heaped more laurels on themselves and Woodward last Monday as they came through with a convincing 30-19 victory over a classy Perrysburg quintet in the finals of the Port Clinton Jr. High Open Tournament. The game was closer than the score indicates, as the Yellow' Jackets were confused by the 3-2 zone defense the Bears threw at them. It was a hot fight in the first quarter as the Bears led by only 8-7 going into the second canto. Then, Forward Bob Rego waxed hot for the Bruins and Woodward moved into a substantial 15-9 lead at halftime. With Larry Haddad and Bill Henry chipping in with some vital long shots, the Bruins increased their margin to 24-12 at the three quarter pole to give them a comfortable lead which they held to the end. Rego, with his long side shots, paced Woodward with 10 points while Haddad and Henry garnered 8 and 7 tallies each to follow close behind. Perrysburg's man-to-man defense failed to stop the freshman attack as Coach Robie's boys worked the ball around till an open- ing occurred and then made good. BUZZARDS TRIUMPH IN FACULTY GAME Scoring started fast and furi- ous in the annual faculty basket- ball game as Fred Pieper, T. U. senior, imported for this clash, dropped in a quick deuce but Dynamite Joe Dence matched this bucket making it two all. For three quarters this nip and tuck battle followed but in the last canto, the Lame Ducks be- gan waddling and the Bald Headed Buzzards swept through for a stunning 41-35 triumph. First half activity ended without any casualties and Leo Robie's Lame Ducks holding a slim one point lead, 17-16. Carrying the bulk of the Buz- zard's attack was Fred Pieper with ten points the first half aided by a sensational two pointer by brawny George Rohrer from well out. A ver- bal outblast by Elmer Vorderburg en- sued following a tricky shot by Virgil Sloan just as the half ended. He was cooled off, though, by the Buz- zard's water boy, S. B. Crouse. Third Quarter Attack Clicks A blistering third quarter attack wore the Lame Ducks out and with Fred Pieper meshing. 12 more points in the last half, aided by Captain Welever's 7 tallies, the Buzzards had the game sewed up. Elmer proved top man for the Duck's the last half, dropping in 7 points. Fred Pieper led the scoring for both teams with twenty-two, followed by teammate Doc Welever with seven. For the Duck's cause, Elmer and Joe Dence each managed 8 apiece. Many of the teachers who did not score many points turned in some fine fioor games. Wilson Weis, Art Smith, Ted Szelegowski, Leo Robie, Lincoln Clark, Joe Stobinski, and Arnold Brown all fall in this cate- gory. Money Used For Shirts This gala affair was not only a success from the entertainment stand- point, but also from the financial side of the ledger as the faculty stars attracted enough fans through the turnstiles to boost the receipts to 8205.86 This money will be used to buy warm-up shirts for the varsity basketball squad. Credit also is duo to the referees, Ed Lair and Bob Aubry, along with the gayly garbed cheerleaders, Tessie Kaminski and Mary Lou Raym-ond, for the part they played in the pro- gram.

X . KAGGRESSIVE UNDERCLASSMEN ' WIN, 46-36, IN ROUGH GAME Playing heads-up, aggressive ball, Wood- ward's varsity juniors turned in a stunning upset last Wednesday during the B sched- ule. The juniors trailed most of the initial quarter but pulled up to a tie at the quarter's end, and then pulled ahead to stay, finally end- ing up on the fat end of a 46-36 score. Ted tal in the junior victory as Ted split the cords for 15 points while Norm controlled both back- boards and contributed seven tallies to the cause. f Rokicki Explodes In Second Quarter Senior scoring was divided between Bob ' Aubry, Ed Houghtaling, Ray Varner, and Dave Saygers in the first period as the seniors clung to a two or three point lead up until Crawford hit a basket and Rokicki added a foul shot to send the game in- to an 11-all tie at the quarter's termination. Paul Miller dump- ed in a free throw to give the juniors a lead at the outset of the second canto and it was nip and tuck until the final minute of the first half when Rokicki exploded for two push shots and a short set-shot to propel the underclassmen into a 23-16 lead at intermission. . During the halftime period, Captain Bob Rego of the Wood- ward Freshmen presented Prin- cipal Charles C. LaRue with a gold-inscribed trophy the Frosh earned by winning the Port Clin- ton Jr. High Open tournament. Coach Leo Robie then intro- duced nine Freshmen cagers to the student body. Juniors Increase Lead Coming back strong in the third quarter, the juniors upped their lead to 27-16 before Jack Smith and Dave- Saygers con- nected for fielders to shorten the margin. However, Rokicki and Jim Chubner hit before the quarter ended and the juniors held a 31-22 edge going into the final period. r In the last quarter, the upperclassmen put on a brief rally after trailing 36-22, but the Juniors, paced by Miller and Chubner, came back fast to maintain their ample lead until the final buzzer. At one time in the final period, Bob Rutkowski's hook shots pulled the seniors up to a 32-38 deficit but the juniors continued to find holes in the upperclassmen defense and had little trouble in stay- ing in front. In contrast to the usual 32 minutes of high school basketball, this contest was shortened to 24 minutes, the first two quarters containing 7 minutes each and the final quarters consisting of 5 minutes each. Ted Rokicki Norm Crawford Seniors End Cage Careers Seven seniors ended their high school cage careers with this game as Bob Rutkowski, Jack Smith, George Fenady, Bob Aubry, Ed Houghtaling, Dave Saygers, and Ray Varner finished their four years of eligible basketball.

Communism ls Topic Chosen As Subieci' For Losi' Lecture fEd. Note: The last Town Hall Meeting was attended by Tom Papps and Joanne Konop, who submitted the following reportj America, the Next Target of Communism was the topic chosen by Martin Ebon for the last lecture of the eighteenth season of Town Hall lectures. Mr. Ebon, a widely known columnist, is well versed on communism. Mr. Ebon began by telling of his experience at Lake Success when the Czech foreign minister committed suicide. We cannot compromise with communism, he said, 'ffor communism is tyranny and it is impossible to compromise with tyranny. METHODS RECOGNIZED We ask the question: ls communism right? We don't know. We know little about communism because of its Trojan horse methods. : In order to explain how the communists have gained power in gov- ernment, Mr. Ebon had to portray the beginning of communistic prestige, its development and present policy. He centered his oration on the seven periods in Russian development. The first was the revolution in Russia under Lenin and the Kindly attitude toward their nation afterwards. Second: The government was disguised behind a cloak of goodness. This second policy was abruptly ended when Stalin beat Troshy in a political race and started his policy of alienating all countries and helping the Germans. The fourth period showed that Stalin realized his mistake and changed to the same policy as the second period, only adding the term democracy. Then, at the commencement of the second World War, Russia fell into the sixth period. This was a three cornered war, meaning that Russia fought Germany for protection, fought the United States econom- ically, and was allied with the U. S. in self preservation from the common enemy. The seventh period is the strategic fight against the U. S., for we are the only obstacle between Russia and complete world power. SOMETHING MUST BE DONE Mr. Ebon added that the government of the U. S. has realized that something must be done and done firmly. Russia has been able to keep troops in many of the European countries because she didn't sign peace treaties with these countries. By this method the communists have been able to convert several countries to communism. The communists also gain power through infiltration. Trained leaders get into organizations, such as women's groups, labor unions and youth organizations. These communists then win the whole group over to their way of thinking. In the case of labor unions this might become very dangerous in the event of a war with Russia. The communists' aim in the United States is to make all labor unions one long trade union as they have in Russia. The columnist stated that it is impossible just to try communism. The campaign of the party might sound good with the frequent mention of democracy, bift once communists are elected into office it is impossible to remove them for communism is really not democratic. Mr. Ebon continued saying that the communists, although always in the minority, are not to be underestimated for they have trained men who are expert revolutionists. The Czechs are a good example of the under- mining these men are capable of doing. 5 . -2 Trio Invalifsu. For visit Making a visit on grad Jim Wilusz, three boyts, along with Mr. Wilusz's Ernie Simpson 4 father, drove to Purdue. Leaving on A blushing, bashful secretary, of the senior class that is, is the object of our detection this week. Although the dis- cription of a blushing secretary sounds as if it would be a female, I assure you Ernie Simpson is as much of a.man as any other male. Proving his capability as a leader, he is president of both the Engineering So- ciety and Hi-Y. He also takes part In track and cross country. A quiet but active part of the school, he is well known for his dependability. . Now that we have bolstered his ego by presenting a picture of a perfect personalityj we can safely .relate his vices. After probing into his inner life, we found that he had no vices, UIIISSS his intrest in the fairer sex could be considered one. The Women in quest- ion here is Pat Korrell. . He is an avid Chili-Mac enthuS1aSt along with other Woodwarditea. Also in the category of what he prefers, EF' nie approves of the new look of the young women, although he doesn't like it on some females. ' Ernie plans upon attending the Tole- do University to continuenin the field of Engineering. Besides this, his future is as yet unpredictable. Class Rings Arrive Have you noticed how proud the jun- iors are? Well, it is all due to the fact that the 1949 class rings arrived Wed. All juniors who had the balance of the payment recieved their ring the part of the day. When the rings were odered, a deposit of 353 was made. Friday and returning Sunday the boys saw many points of interest. Union Hall, which is a student union, was the first stop for these eager spect- ators. Within, they have bowling alleys, libraries and many other things. This trio consisting of Bob Johnson, Eddie Loo, and Marion Antonini, then saw the enormous Field House. T.U. field house can be placed inside Purdue's with much space left over. Another stop was the Music Hall that seats 6,000. Other facts are: out of the 14,000 students enrolled there, 6-7ths are boysg The only entertainment afforded to students is the movie. This trip was under the auspices of the Woodward Engineering Society. ' Principal And Two Boys Invited To Dinner Not everyday is, someone given a chance to attend a dinner. Principal C, C.

The Seabreeze From The Desk . . . ntertainment was not the only interest in pro- moting the annual faculty basketball game and also the junior-senior cage title, A defi- nite plan had b e e n established for spending the proceeds of the two games in a manner to benefit the spring athletic program of the school. Money from the faculty game amounted to 3212. These funds will be used to purchase the necessary equipment for the baseball, track, tennis, and golf teams. Total gate receipts from the junior-senior clash were 35151.20 for which plans have been made to obtain warm up jackets for the varsity basketball squad. The new uniforms purchased this year have been sent back to the manufacturer because of the poor color scheme and inferior material. They pro- bably will be replaced with new uniforms. The ba- lance of the money f r o m the junior-senior game will also be used to purchase spring sport equip- ment. The welfare of school in spring competition seems to be well taken care of thanks to these two fine games. ERE we are again back in the same old col- umn, but this time we're going to talk about something new . What's new? Well we'll tell you. , . Last week we had a spring vacation: that's old. This week we're back in school with homework, B schedules and dances: that's old. We could go on mentioning old matter-of-fact, everyday routine things but those are all old, how about the new ? The one thing that we're interested in is the man- ner in which you came back to school. That should be new. Yes, the weather during y o u r spring vacation was extra-specially nice: that's new. You didn't have to get up early every day after staying up half of the night doing homework to go to schoolgthat's new . All of these things certainly should have given you a new interest to really get busy. It really isn't long until another vacation-time. That one will mean many new things for the Wopidwardites who will be leaving these halls for goo . To sum up what we've said we said we would like to quote, Work for the night is coming. It's a good idea , so what about turning over new leaf. OON the series of spring dances sponsored by the varions organization of Woodward will be- gin. Dances are scheduled for every Friday ex- cept the week of April 16 and will take place in the girls, gym. V Each club with the assistance of it's committee members and itis adisor will do itts best to make these dances a success. However, this can only be achieved through the support of the student body.

THE WOODWARD TATTLER JWOSTRI SPORTS JPROGRAM STARTS Soo Q J S Q 1 1 'E BUCHHOLZ, TILLER ARE CHIEF TRACK ' .i9lZ'N76ll J' .Cdl-vv By Sports Editor ltunior has it that Jim Kneriem, former Bear grid and cage star, will take up teaching and coaching duties at Woodward after he graduates from llowliiig Green. 'l'lioy call him Gon- ileinan Jim . .11 5 iz Findlay High's lerrilic cave quintet has all of' its first stringers back from last year's team which barely nosed out Woodward, 33-32, in a dis- puted contest. Jack Kennedy made a last second basket to apparently win the game for the Bruins, but down in the locker room, after some persuasion from Trojan Coach Carl llachman, the timekeepor ruled the game was over befone Kennedy shot. Pole Vaulter Dick Tiller of Wood- ward is reported to be able to hit 11 feet, which is a better-than-aven age vault for a high schooler. In this rcporter's opinion, there's a couple of deserving athletes in Woodward who rate the Michigan Plaque and the Tattler Achievement Cup. They -are Bob Aubry and Dick Steger with B-ob a good bet for the Plaque because of his outstanding athletic feats in both football and basketball, and Dick deserving of the Cup because of his tremendous suc- cess in four years of varsity football and also because -of his high scholas- tic standing. Jules Rivlin, coach of Toledo's pro basketball Jeeps, was quoted as say- ing that dead-eye John Kornowa, former all-'state Bear guard, was the best man on the Toledo University freshmen squad which is packed with star-studded material. Kornowa tal- lied 204 points in the City League last season to lead all scorers and top Jim Maher's 177 total of this year. -+,?i W W 1. W, , FEDERATION TEAM REIGNS SUPREME lWoodward's defending cham- pions in the Downtown Coaches Federation Basketball League gave a repeat performance of last year's championship crew by again roaring to the top of the league with an impressive record of eleven wins and one loss. Their closest rival for the crown was DeVilbiss with eight wins and four losses. Bears Clinch Title Early -The Bears quintet clinched the title with still one game remaining on the schedule. They wrapped up the title against the DeVilbiss Tigers as they swept to an easy 50-39 triumph. Ed- die Lair, former varsity cager, led the Blue and White with eleven tal- lies, followed by teammate Orville Kesling, with ten points. Tied for scoring honors with Lair was Joe Badyna with eleven markers for the Bruins' cause. Central was the final opponent of the season and they too fell before the Bear attack as the Bruins inflict- ed a 34-29 defeat on them. Orville Kesling and Ed Lair again were lead- ers on offense, racking up 12 and nine points, respectively. Woodward Meets DeVilbiss By virtue of their fine play, the Woodward crew has .been asked to clash with the light- weight cage team from DeVil- biss, now reigning as city and district king pins. The skirmish will be played tonight, as a pre- liminary to the Amateur Federa- tion play-offs, at 7 130 P. M. Coach Doc Welever and his team deserve the congratulations for keep- ing Woodward at the top ofthe list. Members of the squad include Ed Lair, Orville Kesling, Joe Badyna, Fred Henzler, Herb Lit- tle, Don lteaume, Fred Lisk, Bud White, Dick Steger, and Bob Jones. If It Was True!! THREATSQ VETS RETURN IN BASEBALL Woodwardf, 1948 spring sports program gets underway next Wednesday when Docl' Welever takes his cinder men over to DeVilbiss to do battle with DeVilbiss' perennial city champs. Baseball will commence next April 16 while tennis and golf launch their campaigns on Thursday, April 15. Buchholz ls Chief Bear Threat Welevci-'s scantily-clad athletes were scheduled to don their track gear last Tuesday in preparation for their city league opener with the Tigers, who are again expected to be on or near the top. V Outstanding among the Bear candidates at this writing seems to be Miler Dick Buchholz who also can pick up plenty of points in the half-mile and broad jump events. Dick was gener- ally rated the top mile runner in the city last year and one of the best men in the state. Another promising point-getter is Richard Tiller who excels in the pole vault attraction and is expected t-o develop into a fair dash man. Veterans Jack Smith and Chuck Samson return to help out in the pole vault and hurdles, respectively, while Steve Kania, Cal Harding, Jim Waller, and Jim King are relied upon to carry the relay and dash jobs. Gridder Ralph Gard- ner is a mile relay man who is relied upon by Coach Doc Welever. Bob Rutkowski is the only veteran in the shot put event with Jack Smith expected to help out in the discus throw. Don Reaume and Dick Ubl also are slated to discus. , However, in the Bengal meet, DeVilbiss seems to have the shot put and discus throw contests sewed up with Harry Edding- lton reputed to be able to heave COACH SZELAGOWSKI PLAYS HOST TO TEAM Treating the lightweight team at his house, Coach Ted Szelagowski with the help of his wife played host to his polite, courteous, and mannerly team. First, cards were shuffled for amusement, with Ted saying only for fun. Well, Ted cleaned quite a few of the fellows and not with soap. Finally after much coaxing Ted was persuaded to show his scrapbook. Modestly he displayed that instead of only kicking extra points as he says, he was an all-star, playing football, basketball, baseball, and track. Food was the next item on the program and Andy Nowak excelled by eating 8 sandwiches, 2 hot dogs, 2 pieces of pie, potato chips and pop. And we do mean t'pop . The boys at the conclusion of the party presented their coach with a gray corsair, zipper shirt. the shot put 43 feet and the discus 117 feet, both marks eas- ily topping Woodward's best ef- forts. Robie To Pilot Veteran Squad Turning to baseball, Mentor Leo Robie has a number of veterans re- turning with Second Baseman Ted Rokieki and outfielders Paul Miller and Jack Sobczak counted on to bol- ster the squad. The other outfield spot ha'sn't been filled with Coach Robie expected t-o try hard to find an adequate replacement. In the infield, freshman Sylvester Smith is out to fill the first base vacancy left by Lefty Wozniak while Al Jaku- bowski, George Veller, and Ed Lair are slated to plug up the shortstop and thirdlbase worries. D Handling the catching chores will probably be Larry Kasior with hurlers Glen Rose, Ralph Stewart, and Gene Roselprovid- ng plenty of ammunition for his catcher's mitt. Below is a complete schedule of all ik of Woodward's spring activities.

THE WOODWARD TATTLER SENIOR CO-CHAIRMEN DATA TO REPORTERS Juanita Reynolds Along with Shirley Foxe, Juanita Reynolds shares the task of supervis- ing tonight's dance. Besides being ac- tive in the Fasces Club, she also claims membership in the Secretarial Club. Juanita is more active out of school.

To fill her leisure time and to assure her that her purse is not empty. she works at LaSalle's after school, al- though nursing is hcr favorite work. This explains her wish to go on with nursing after graduating. Juanita hopes to be able to get n position at Flower Hospital, where she will be able to carry through in this field. She chums with Rita Radecki and her sisters since there are no men in her life. Interested parties may take advantage of this situation. To reach her for this purpose, her phone number is Po. 4020. The success of tonightfs dance will be part of the accomplishment ofthis young lady, who along w th the other co-chairman Shirley Foxe, has worked to make this event a long remember- ed one.

Electricians Visited WSPD Visiting radio station, VVSPD, on Tuesday, March 16 was an interesting v i s i t because it wasn't an ordinary showing of the station. Through the time of Harry Prue. rad- io engineer, the boys of Lee Rynder's classes were shown all of the television equipment and how it works. The boys were shown cameras, controls, t e s t rooms and panels of television. The visit lasted about tw hours of which Mr. Prue took advantage and showed the boys of things to come in connection with radio. Someone who really enjoyed the visit was Ralph Wise. Iwonder why? Dictaphone Added To Department Another ofhce machine was added to Woodward's collection with the dona- tion of a dictaphone by H.M. Brown. This machine is to be used for the en- tire typing department and will teach future stenographers the feat of typing from plastic or wax rolls. Mr. Brown was able to donate this dictaphone through th e courtesy of Toledo Steel Products, to whom it form- erly belonged. Mr, Brown was the main speaker on the program, put on by M.O.M.A. for the Secretarial club. Heis deeply inter- ested in public education and intends to keep on working for the good of the business departments of our city high schools. Congratulations and best wishes are extended to Alice Rospond, grad of 1946, and llerman Szymanski who will be married Saturday, April Zi. Alice was a former member of the Student Council. , Ju-mug REVEAL i . 1 Shirley Foxe Well known for her many accomplish' at Woodward, Shirly Foxe is a student, in the true sence of the word, that is recognized for her b:ain power. A digni- fied young ladyg she gives the impress' ion of being a bit reserved, but in reali. ty when engaged in a conversatisn pours forth with. her amiable geniality' Shirley is one, among many of us, who appreciates the liner things oflife, such as Shakespearian plays, attending the Town Hall, and the Michigan foot- ball tcam. English is one ot her favorite subject, which explains her liking for fine literature. She has a rather inter- esting hobby which yours truly thinks rnigth prove expensive at times. It is her interest in old typewriter which makes her an owner of several of the species. The oldest typewriter she has in her collection is an l899 model. It must be quite an ancient relicr Active during her four y e a r s a t Woodward, she claims membership in the Periclean Literary Society, Fasces Club, and the Honor Society. She attend- ed.

Constantly, Consistently Constructi -- f Milkman Vol. XX Toledo, Ohio, April 9, 1948 No. 26 JUNIOR CLASS PRESENTS ANNUAL PROM 1- . .. ..- Everything, in order to be a suc- cess, must have support from all sides. This year, with the Junior Prom only one day away, the Tattler adds its support, by having an all junior staff. It is the one issue where- in the Juniors can use their ideas and exploit them, 'iding their big day of the year, become a thrilling mem- ory. A staff was chosen by ballot and has, of course, done its best to pub- lish a better paper than any of their predecessors had, but there are thanks to be sown on the people be- hind the scenes. The seniors, who have set aside this day for us are not 4 to be forgotten for without' their aid this publication would have seemed an insurmountability. Mrs. Marie Ersig, our teacher, and best report- er, is another principle element in the compound to say nothing of the print shop. Although it is called a Junior is- sue , these, all, are contributors in their own way and will feel a satis- faction when seeing the completed product.-JUNIOR EDITOR Four Students Attend Convention Four representatives, two from the student council and two from the Tatt- ler, went to DeVilbiss Tuesday, April 6. The purpose of this visit was a con- ference on the topic of Serving Youth So Youth May Better Serve. The main speaker was Dr. Frank A Liddle, execu- tive at the Y.M.C.A. in Indiana, ably assisted by his wife. Opening the pro- gram, Doctor Liddle told about his work and the purpose ofhis visit, which was to help young people on any problems the ma have. .Y Y Questions were submitted and then the speaker attempted to answer some of these. The question asked most was. Do you approve of steady dating? , another popular question was What do you think of sororities and fraterni- ties? Dr. Liddle did not answer these outright but gave the students differ- ent angles to think about. The four representatives from Wood- ward wereg Nancy Barnes, Andrew D0Ugl3S, Tom Papps, and Mira Slich- c1nsk1. LaRue To'Tour Grade Schools Every year Charles C.

The WALDO AND CRAWFORD TO LEAD MARCH: LANTZ ORCHESTRA T0 PLAY AT WOMEN'S BUILDING Her first prom-his first big date--both waiting tensely for the moment to arrive. She's excited-he's nervous. What kind of corsage will he bring her?

Miss Edith Support Class Committees OMORROW night is the night! The long await' ed Junior Prom, which has been the chief topic of conversation among Woodwardites for the past few weeks, will be held at the Woman's Build- ing. As a junior, it is almost your duty to attend this dance to support your fellow classmates who have worked hard since Se tember making all the ne- cessary arrangements for the shindig tomorrow night. This is the only way you can show them that you appreciate the fact that they have given freely of their own time in order that you might enjoy an evening of dancing with other juniorites. It has long been a problem to encourage the boys to put forth their bids for dates, but of course they, too, have their side to the question. They may be shy financially embarassed or they may not have the means of transportation. As loyal members of the junior class or a con- stituant of Woodward, and for your own pleasure, you should go. Fellows if you havenlt been able to get a date so far, you still have 24 hours in which to try to get one. She's probably dying to go with you. Keep The Grass' Green On Our Side HREE years ago, when I first came to Wood' ward, the surrounding grounds were 'If you will excuse the expressions a mess. A path cut across the grass in two places, and in other places the grass had been worn away by people who used the ground as a playground. That was three years ago. Have you noticed the grounds lately? The grass is green and even, the paths are extint. Although it still is not the pic- ture they paint on a postcard, it is an enormous improvement. This was brought about after Mr. LaRue asked us not to walk on the grass. We did'nt, and now we reap the harvest of a decent looking school. ' - Now that the ground is drying, and will again af ford a few second's convenience, we must not for- get that it is our school, for our benefit and run by our families taxes. If we remember these things we will not only make it an equal school, but sup- erior to all others schools. - Q ' THE WOODWARD TATTLER Murphy became a victim of one of Red's April Fool's jokes. 244 P21 HK Have certain junior girls looked tired lately?

Well, by now we're all calling him Pop and think he's pretty swell. Again the time has come when Mr. LaRue will visit the neighboring grade school to give the fu- ture Woodwardites a glimpse of what they can ex- pect to find. In this visit Mr. LaRue explains high school requirements, majors and minors, our grad- ing system, and how our school is run in general. Also brought out in this talk are the extra cirricu- lar activities around school. This talk help student decide what course they would like to follow when they come to Woodward. All in all it helps the future of Woodward by guiding and interesting the in coming student in the right fields of training. ' 'And gosh how passionate!

Sparked by Jim Maher, Ed Harri- son, Malcolm King, and Eddington, the Bengals dominated every event of the meet with the exception of Eas- terwood's win and Dick Buchholz' first in the mile run. Maher took firsts in the high hurdles and high jump and sec-onds in the 100-yard dash and low hurdles, to earn 16 points for himself and his team. Next in line for scoring honors were Harrison and Eddington, a couple of specialists, who grabbed the 100 yard and 220 yard dashes along with the shot put and discus throws. Malcolm King ran to victory in the low hurdles and placed second in the high hurdles for a total of eight markers. For Woodward, Buchholz cap- tured honors as he copped five points in the mile run and one point in the half mile event.

New Woodwardite Interviewed Would you like to go to Germany and then find that you weren't permitted to return to America? Well, that is exact- ly what happened to one of the fresh- man students.

Nine years ago he, along with his parents, went to Mannhum,Germany on a visit. When the war broke out the were forced to stay there. He learned the German language and gradually forgot the Eng- lish language. During the war they livcd in a place called Neubusshum. It wasnit a concen- tration camp. but they were not per- mitted to leave there. He finished Folk school in Germany, which is similar to our junior high. Fredrick and his mother returned to this country on February 21 of this year. His father died while in Germany. He likes America better every day, likes his teachers, and also likes school.

I wonder what the big Wrestling Veteran Exibits Skill During B-Schedule Bertrand Shurtleff, battle marked veteran of the grunt and groan pro- fession presented his unique program of Wrestling Revelations in an enter- taining but highly informative manner. The program was given last' Thursday during the B schedule before a filled auditorium. Nonchalantly Mr. Shurtleff removed his shirt and displayed his powerful physique. He then explained some of! the persuasive fatics he used in grid- iron live play while at Brown Univer- sity and also while performing in col- lege wrestling. Througout the entire program, Mr. Shurtleff exposed the fakery used in professional wrestling just to please the fans taste for brutal cruelty. Four VVoodward boys, three fresh- men and a senior participated in the show. To show strength ofhis abdom- inal muscles, Mr Shurtleff had Ed Hoo- vin carrying on Duane Abbajay on his back, stand on his stomach. He then bounced the boys gently up and down by merely flexing his stomach muscles. Incidently each boy weighs well over two hundred pounds. Following demonstrations were with Duane Abhajay helping to expose the flip in hold wrestling, the scissors hold with senior Forrest Black being the guinea pig, the fakery of the split hold with Ed Hoovin lending his assistance, and the finale with Sonny Smith, 215 pound Frosh, easily carried on his shoulders for an airplane ride. Not only is Mr. Shurtleff an accom- plished wrestler. a former pro football player, a former school teacher, and a fine speaker and showman,but he is the author of four fine books, three of them available in our school library which he autographed. The three in the library are A. W. O L. , K-9 Commando, A. W.O.L. Musters Outv, and Short Leash. His latest book is Short Lash. Jim Chubner . . .

These curtains are to be made of shimmering white fibre glass pur- chased from the Owens-Corning Fi- berglass Company. Last Friday Mrs. Lola Bowyer, Mrs. June Kastenholz and Principal C. C. LaRue visited the glass company to look at material that would be suit- able for curtains. This project will be quite expensive since 28 curtains will be needed and each window will have two which will be six yards long and three yards wide. These curtains will be Suspended from traverse rods. Whevn not being used the curtains can be drawn to the side and held in place with tie backs. This type of fibre glass material is very durable since it is material that is fire-proof, and can be washed by merely putting it in water. This material requires no ironing. The fact that no decorations will he permitted to be hung on these new curtains is stressed for the materials beauty would be marred by any rough handling. Since these hangings will be used by all clubs sponsoring dances, it is expected that these organizations will donate some money to help pay for them. Career Forums To Be Sponsored Career Forum is the name given to the series of radio programs sponsored by the Board of Education over the new radio station at McKinley School. The first program will be held on Mon- day, April 19 and the subject will be Opportunities in Radio. A different occupation will be discussed each week on the fifteen minute program. One student from each school, interested in that occupatiqn and who has done some research in it, and a local adult, successful in the same field will act as the panal and guest, respectivly. Robert Pana of Mrs. Bianca Russel's first hour class will be the rep.esentative ofWoc d- ward High School. The record is to be made on Monday morning at 9:00 and broadcast each hour on the following day so that any interested classes may listen. One' teacher from each school will act as moderator. Miss Camille Savage and Mrs. Dorothy Matheny will handle the selection of our representatives for these programs. Tattlerites Head For Bowling! Green, Ohio Youth Of France Is Speaker's Subject Speaking on The Youth of France during the B schedule last Thurs- day was Robert Granger, a native of France who has been in the United States for nine months, working as a chemical engineer and bringing his message to as many Americans as he can. The speaker brought out very clearly the two choices which confronted the youth of France during the last war. They could follow Marshall Petain and collaborate with the Germans or they could follow De Gaulle, the French lead- er exiled in England, who asked them to fight against German occupation. If they chose the latter course, they w re arrested and se n t to concentration camps in Germany. This happened to many youths of high school age. Because of this necessity of youth to make such a decision, he urged all young people to study and take a great interest in American History and poli- tics so that when great world problems arise, each individual may make a wise choice. Mr. Granger mentioned t h a t in France, prices have gone up 13 times since 1940 while wages have gone uc 8 times higher. During his interesting talk he very charmingly handled two interruptions. First, a small boy tried to sell him a ticket to something or other, then, a boy came in to sharpen his pencil. Clerk Of Courts Senior Guest v At its monthly meeting today during the B schedule, the senior class had not only one guest, but over 300 of then'-. Gordon Jeffry's, Clerk of Courts here in Toledo, spoke to members of the senior class and their guests, the junior class. On April 26 the seniors will have a business meeting. Marion Antonini and the program committee will begin work on a skit for the following meeting. The date has not been chosen as yet. Sell- ing of prom tickets will be the purpose of the assembly. The vice president, Marion, is corre- sponding with Danny Thomas w h o plans to visit Toledo in the near future. If he arrives before the school year is over, there is a possibility of his being a sen- ior class guest speaker. He 'is also communicating with Robert Weiland the executive vice-president of t h e Willys-Overland Motors.

The sec- ond annual contest is being held this year and the Anthony Wayne Chapter is handling the local elimination with the cooperation of the Toledo Public Schools. The purpose of the contest is to fur- ther the knowledge of American history among our young people and especially to have them do some intensive think- ing about the things we think are fun- iigmental about our American way of 1 e.

Judging of the contestants will be based upon these factors: compostion, delivery, logic, signifigance of document or event selected, clarity, general over --all appra sal. The awards are: first 5100, second 550, third 325. The contestant from the Toledo area will be the dinner guest of Anthony Wayne Chapter at the annual Banquet of the Society the evening of April 23, unless he wins first, second or third award, in which case he sits at the spea- kers table as guest of the Ohio Society, and again delivers his speech.

Staff To Attend Eighth Annual Convention Spring is here and to Tattlerites and t h e sixth hour journalism class it means more t h a n the old saying a young man's fancy turns to love. Their fancy turns to a trip to Bowling Green State University for the annual North- western Ohio District Journalism Con- vention, which this year is the eighth in this series. The bus leaves at 8:30 in front of the school and is scheduled to a r r i ve in Bowling Green at 9:00. From 9:00-9:45 a registration will be held in the Admin' istration Building. Opening ofthe Con- vention is held in the auditorium from 9:45-10:15. A movie will be held from 103 15-11:00. At 12:00 everyone will go to lunch. A general assembly under the direction of L.F. Newmyer, Public Rela- tions, Toledo Blade, will be held from 1:15-2:30. Awarding of prizes in writing contests will be presented from 2:30 3:00. An aquatic show will be held from 3:15- 3:45. Refreshments and a variety show will last from 4:00-4:30. Four samples of writings have been sent in from the Tattler to be judged by the Toledo Blade staH.

The bus fare is not in- cluded in the 51:00 and each s t u d e n t must pay for his bns fare. This will all take place on Saturday, April 17. The following students plan- ning to attend: Nancy Barnes, Pat B e c k e r, Betty Best, Sally Bruning, Denorah Burns, Sally Dickey, Norma Duttrer, Nancy Everingham, Rose Enchoff, Peggy Gil- bert, Sue Ignatowicz, Pat Kaczmarek Theresa Kaminski, Helen Korecki, Ma- rian Krause, Barbara Kubacki, Cather- ine Meek, Frank Morh, Irene Nakos, Ri- ta Palicki, Tom Papps, Gayla Parks, Dolly Rosnowski, Vera Sackman, Mira Slinchinski, Phyliss Sosnowicz, Pearl Williams, Margie Young, Leon Zawisza- and Mrs. Mary Ersig. Junior Class To Sell Tin Hero Tickets Now is the time to dig into that old sock, in order to purchase a ticket for the comedy-drama Tin Hero, which is being put on by the Playshop. Only 12 days before the first performance, tickets will go on sale Monday, April 19. Tickets will be sold for 85.50 per per- son on first floor in the ticket booth. Chairman of the ticket committee is Marion Antonini, who will ably be assis- ted by the junior class. Under the sup- ervision of the class advisors, Miss Belle Joseph, and Floyd Lords,mem- bers of the junior class will take the responsibility of selling the tickets. Ushering for the two eventful nights will be the following girls: Dolores Houghtell, Alice Miller, Pat Szachta, Phyllis Pawelczak Kate Slates, Evelyn Peth, Joyce Drudzinski, Joan Querin, Norma Hall, and Irma Dorn. The ush- erettes are in charge of Alice Miller, chairman of the ushering committee. Senior Students Write 31 Letters Thirty-one letters, not received, but written for Democracy. Not so very long ago every English student had to write a letter on this for a contest. They were eyeing prizes as they wrote, but these 31 letters were not even entered into the contest competition. Marion Antonini, senior has been very active writing letters to Italy and translating letters for his neighbors. He spent not only his own time and effort but also his own money for stamps and paper. We think this is something that should be recognized by the rest of the student body. Take a bow, Marion. - l THE WOODWARD TATTLER LOVE THY NEIGHBOR IS WEEK'S THEME OMEONE is constantly creating weeks We don't mean that they are adding days to the calendar year but that someone is always set- ting aside seven days in which to emphasize a par- ticular subject. ' For example, next week is World Fellowship week. How can we, as Woodwardites, concentrate on this subject for one week? We have a great need for fellowship right here in our class rooms, maybe not quite as much as the rest of the world needs in order to keep going but enough to establish friendly conditions throughout our halls. b For the most part, Catholic, Protestant, Negro, and Jew are Buddy-buddies in our midst. Occa- sionally we hear this complaint: We're not wel- clams at the school dances? Who can agree with t is. It's up to everyone to try to get along with some- one, but that someone must also try. If you think that 5ou're being left out of something take a step forward, you might see that someone else has done the same thing. READY OR NOT, B. G., HERE WE COME Very year, as the birdies go, we pack our pencils and pads, and take off for a little town with a big school for the annualjournalism convention at Bowling Green, Ohio. In order to give the coming sophomore Tattlerites experience they are allowed to tag along the condition that don't make to much noise. So sophmores, juniors and s e n io r s, along with Mrs. Marie Ersig, our advisor, and a bus driver leave to go and see how other school papers are operated. Through the various things we see there, we shall acquire a thesaurus of ideas that we will return and exploit on Tattler material, so that we may better our paper. By using these conventions that we go to, not backed by school or T a t tl e r funds, but on our very own, we endeavor to K E E P the WOOD- WARD TATTLER on the same level or higher than any other paper in the state of Ohio. SAVE APRIL 28, 29 FOR TIN HERO? ' INGING in the minds of the cast of the Tin Hero is the wordurehearsalf' These students have been striving diligently to become per- fectid the play soon to be presented. Spring va- cation was forfieted in order to obtain more practice. ' Also devoting much time is Mrs. Isla Van Vran- ken director of the Tin Hero and advisor of the Dramatic Society. Members of the cast have done everything pos- sible to produce a good play. They are now depen- dent on Woodward students to support theirwork. The enthusiasm they show and the work they put into this, warrants its success, and your satisfaction on a ticket. The Tattler on behalf of the entire faculty, student body and office workers, extends deep- est sympathies to Miss Annie Miller on the re- cent death of her brother. Evelyn Iwinski on a summer night, Turned down the parlor light, The judge, beside her, whispered things, Of wedding bells and diamond rings' He spoke his love in burning phrase And acted forty foolish ways.

The Peri Formal is just around the corner so girls take it from here! Lucky Nanette Foran had her picture in the pap- er last week Wednesday for being Co-Chairman of the Prom. Some people get all the publicity. If you want to spend an entertaining day just stay with Andy Douglas. He really kept the other three students who attended the DeVilbiss Confer- ence laughing.

Rumor has it that a certain junior boy on the Tattler Staff has been taking quite an interest in Delores Proch. From where I stand I can see his point. If you've wondered where Joan Milczak got that pretty little silver basketball she's wearing it's from John Nowak. Could this be a new romance. Rita Pinski, Theresa Kolecki, and Evelyn Czer- minski can finally relax now. Theseupicket queens 'ad to picket in front of the Fanny Farmer Candy stores for more than two weeks. Now that the weather has warmed up the season for roasts will begin again. The old familiar wail of who am I going to ask will respond through Woodwardls halls once more. Attention all couples going steady!! At the DeVilbiss conference Dr. Liddleexpressedthe opi- nion that high school students should go with many different boys girls therefore steady going was not good for a person's personality. So what are you going to do about it? While on the subject of going steady, you can't say the Junior girls are slow workers Already many of the Junior boys are minus their. class rings.

Robie's second baseman, George Veller, showed hitting power as he exploded a home run with the bases loaded while Seymour also blasted a four bagger for the alumni. al' 'l' Pl' ' The four graduates mentioned above have been giving Coach Wilson Weis' future varsity cagers some stiff competition. Weis is expected to have a short but fast team next year with vets Jim Chubncr, Norm Crawford, Ted Rokicki and Paul Miller counted on to the nucleus around which the team will be built. Not much height is expected from the reserves so the Bears will have to compensate for their lack of height with plenty of fight. H' Coach Elmer Vorderburg's '48 foot- ball team should have one of the biggest lines in the city. Coming up from the lightweights are such 200 pound giants as Duane Abbajay, Ed Hooven, Sylvester Smith, and Stan Moskowhile varsity vets Don Reaume and Andy Nowak return to add more beef to Elmer's forward wall. Coach Vorderburg will probably'have trou- ble in lining up some big, fast back- field men, however. Dick lluchholz, Woodward's ace miler, would probably be collecting points in the broad jump event if it weren't for a weak ankle he has sus- tained. However, Dick Tiller is get- ting plenty of distance in his jumps and also should develop into one of the finer pole vaulters in the city. Jim Maher, generally regarded as the best high school cagcr in the city, is reaping more glory over at DeVilbiss with his feats on the cinder track. Jim is one of the top high jumpers Toledo has and also is a l LETTERS AWARDED TO ELEVEN BOYS AT CAGE BANQUET Woodward staged its annual bas- ketball luncheon in the school cafe- teria last Tuesday at 11:30 with all 11 members of the varsity receiving their letters. Managers Mike Gussis and Henry Wieczorek were presented their letters by Equipment Manager Joe Dence. Brown Acts As M. C. Athletic Director Arnold J. Brown acted as master of ceremonies for the informal get-together and intro- duced Principal Charles C. LaRue who stated that the city league was a tough one and therefore the Bears' fifth place standing was nothing to be ashamed of. Seven Seniors Honored Coach Wilson Weis and Mr. Dence handed out the monograms with Mr. Weis bidding a final farewell to sen- iors Bob Aubry, George Fenady, Jack Smith, Ray Varner, Bob Rutkowski, Ed Houghtaling, and Dave Saygers. Coach Weis also expressed the hope that next year's team would have a more successful season than this year's squad, which boasted juniors Ted Rokicki, Norm Crawford, Paul Miller, and Jim Chubner. All four juniors were honored with letters. Faculty Members Invited Various prominent faculty members sat in on the turkey dinner. Among these were Head Football Coach El- mer Vorderburg, Assistant Coach D-oc Welever, Lightweight Coach Ted Szelagowski, Dean Clyde M. Meek, Lincoln C. Clark, Physical Edu- cational Director Art Smith, and Clyde Van Tassel. Freshman and sophomore gym classes are now practicing skills and playing hit pin baseball, while the junior and senior classes are apply- ing their lessons in shuffleboard, table tennis, and badminton. as :iz :iz A surprise is in store for Miss Catherine McClure when she returns from her illness. lt seems Mrs. Ol- lendorf and Mrs. McClure decided to do a bit of redecorating.

Music Notes Woodward was well represented at the P.T.A. meeting of Hamilton school when the Melodetes sang and Dorothy Stallbaum danced. The meeting was held last Thursday night, April 1. Harold McClure, director of music at Libbey, and his special chorus group was here to perform during the assem- bly. Thursday, April 15.

Trip Attending the lfliglith Annual Northwestern Ohio District Journal- ism Convention last Saturday, April 17, were members of the Woodward Tattler stalf and the sixth hour jour- nalism students along with their ad- visor, Mrs. Marie D. lirsig. Scheduled to leave at 8:30 a.m., the hus was five minutes late in starting out because Rita Palicki and Dolly Roznoski were late. fJust like womenll Finally we were on our way. The juniors and seniors oc- cupied the back of the bus while the 'tshmoes Csophs to youj sat in front. Tom Papps insisted on telling jokes, but Mira Slihcinski finally persuaded him not to. After serenading the bus driver and all the babies lbe- ginnersl the back of the bus was di- vided and a game started. The ob- ject was to find a Marathon gas sta- tion sign which would count as -one point. But, if a red barn with an ad- vertisement for Mail Pouch Tobacco was sighted, all points were taken away. Helen Koreckiis side won. See, there, Irene Nakos, I told you! The bus arrived in Bowling Green at 9:00 a.m. Tom Papps and Forest Black were chosen ? to get badges, pins, programs and lunch tickets. CI wonder why Tom had two lunch- es'?J Everyone then went to the auditorium for a general session in which we were all welcomed and told the program of the day. A movie was then shown entitled Magazine Magic. After this session was over, the students attended various round- table discussion groups. Denorah Burns couldn't see why they called it round tables, because after all, they were all square! Pat Becker en- joyed the talk on feature and col- umns. fDidn't you, Pat?J After dragging Pearl Williams out of Mr. Dyeris room, we all went to- yese-luneh! This was held in the Commons Building on the campus. Awards Made Another general session was then held, at which Don Wolfe, the Blade state editor, gave a very interesting talk on newspaper people. Following this was a question period handled by Gordon Ward, university senior. Just before this get-together, Leon Zawis- za. was snatched by an inquiring re- porter, and was actually on the radio. Frank Mohr was caught, too, but managed to sneak out. While visit- ing in town, Katie Meek bought a squirt gun. After the last general session, there was a presentation of awards and prizes offered by the Toledo Blade. Forest Black, Sports Editor of the Tattler, received honorable mention for one of the best sports stories. Phyllis Sosnowicz was pre- sented a certificate stating that the Woodward Tattler was the best weekly printed school paper. Coke and cake were then served in the Recreation Hall. Marian Krause and Sally Dickey took enough to last all of us for the entire trip home. During this time, Pat Kaczmarek and Sue Ignatowicz exchanged shoes. Ask them why. I don't know. Later, we all attended a modern dance concert in the auditorium fol- lowed by a fatiguing block walk back to the bus. On the way home, the sophomores were peppier than the upper classmen. P. S.--Only four B.T.O.'s were present QBOYS OF THE TATTLER OFFICEJ at this convention. Candidates Chosen Candidates for the the sophomore queen, who will reign at the annual Sophomore Dance on May 14 were cho- sen by vote of all sophomores in their first hour classes. Those were: Sally Dickey, Dorothy Stallbaum, Pearl Wil- liams, Mary Lou Bunker, and Marian Krause. Three Aoi' Comedy.

We do not think this is at all fair. We worked hard on the magazines sales, mostly for our sta- dium, and we think the least the teachers can do is to co-operate. If the show does not go on it will be remembered, and we don't think the kids will work as hard next year. Please do what you can. We think we earned it. Thank you. Sincerely, Two Students. tEditor's above note, his opinion self felt as Notezl In answer to the Charles LaRue was asked and replied that he him- the two students did but had encountered difficulties in round- ing out an all faculty cast. Due to this fact a faculty show won't be held but to offset the disappointment a show, with professional talent, will be presented in the near future. Paul Epor may be contacted for this af- air.

The featured, flying bird specie discover- ed him on August 26, almost eighteen years ago. This blue eyed, blond hair lad ranks algebra as his favorite subject with Miss Joseph receiving high honors as his esteem teacher. He claims all girls rank with him. Donates his time to the Hi-Y, Play Shop, Boxing, and of course the Dramatic Club. Because of his friendly personality, he has many friends and will always be a success wherever he goes. PAT PAWLAK KMRS. GOODYEARI Student Director Does her dramatizing as Mrs. Goodyear, the exag- gerating mother of Douglas, very well.5Has changed her brown hair into a style of a butch. Her yellow eyes, beautiful complexsion, and sparkling persona- lity makes her a charming girl to know. Collecting classical records seems to be her happiest joy. Will enter nurse's training soon after graduation. Usual- -ly seen with Patty Kaczmarek and former grad, Joan Kolinski. Has no specisl heart interest fAt least that what she saysl Good luck, nurse Pawlak! PHYLLP5 SOSNOWICZ - QGRACE GOODYEARE Miss Sosnowicz portrays the part of Grace, Doug- las's sister. Dramatics, F.T.A., Zets, Y-Teens, and editorship of the Tattler take up much of her time. Soz refuses to reveal her heart interest but did tell us the startling fact that carrots are tops with her. Phyllis's brown hair is perfectly matched by her big brown eyes. Her address is 1403 Noble and her phone number is Po. 2362. JOHN SEXTON CBUNNY VVHEELEB7 D Since the role of Bunny Wheeler called for a ty- pical boy, John Sexton was the person who was. accepted. He plays Grace Goodyear's lover boy Here's something interesting, even though he play's as Sos's boy freind in this play, he claims that she also is secret love interest. This tall lad of 5'1Oyj states that besides belonging to the Dramatics Club, he also has membership in the McKinley Y. M.C.A. where he picks up his wrestling ability. Mom Abair is his No. 1 teacher. Is called Ray by his buddies and by the way, he can be reached through Grambell's invention, Ma. 1210. PAT KACZMAREK CADELAIDE YOUNGD Her talent is shown off as Adelaide Young, one of Dougla's admirers. Miss Kaczmarek is noted for doing her shorthand in the Tattler Office and do- ing her Tattler work in English. Patsy dislikes very much to be called Patsy.

She is none, other than Mrs. Isla Van Vranken, director of the Drama' tics, who lives at 2603 Maplewood Avenue. Shortie stands in front of kids who wander into 302 during the day practicing one of her hobbies making her commercia teaching practical. Mrs. Van Vranken got her training at Tristate, in Angorla, Michigan and Colorado University. After seven years here at W- H. S., she journeyed to Macomber for three years and now is back once more to the home of the Polar Bears. We won't mention her weight or height but we will say that she likes fresh fruits, stage plays, concerts, traveling, new books, and the color green. She sets some real cutev hats on top ofher reddish colored hair and looks out on the world through blue eyes in which you can almost read what she told me in reference to the play. All I can say is I've got a very slendid cast to work with. I left as the quarters started rolling in. SOMETHING NEW HAS BEEN ADDED OODWARD will soon seem different, at least in the girl's gym for with the acquisi- tion of glass fiber material. curtains will be made. Undoubtedly, these will be a great asset to Woodward, and a convenience to school organiza- tions, since they will save time and effort, in deco- rating. Every club or class, that sponsors a dance will enjoy these curtains and their appearance, but these, like other good things, are not had for the asking. Of course they cost money, and money, as usual, is a problem. It's only logical that the pay- ing of these should be done by the ones that bene- fit by them, obviously the clubs. Now before you say Let the school pay, let me tell you something else. A club is a part of a school and is dependent on the school. Without the school, the club would have no members, thus no officers, thus no dances, thus no treasury. So it seems only fair that each club should contribute for these curtains and through the combined effort they will be had by the school, yet owned by each and every cluh. On behalf of the entire student body and members of the faculty, the Tattler Staff ex- tends deepest sympathies to Dorothy O'Neal on the recentdeath of her mother. Sympathies are also extended to Mrs. Phffllis Lentz on the passing of her brother- in- aw. Many happy returns to Alice Horton a fellow Tattlerite who celebrates her birthday today. - x Act II of Robot Man -The Tin Hero- The curtians part and the cast starts knocking itself out in the second act of Robot Many. The scene gets started--whoops--what's this? N o r m a Hall, Lilian Nickols, Pat Pope, Frances Tegtymeyer and Vera Sackmanlall of the make-up committee: are running on stage. lt seems they forget to paint a musctahe on Douglas. Venus Geonopolus and Andy Marks, of the scenery, rush on stage thinking the act is over and signal Betty Barber and Joan Querin on stage to help clear out the debris. Grace, who has tired of waiting for her clue comes in swinging a 'tennis racket and hits Marg- uise Bordoni, who had just stepped into the room after her continued knocking has been unheeded. The noise and confusion on stage sends Alice Miller, Phyllis Pawelazak, Kate Slates, L e o na Kolinski, usherettes from the left aisle, and Evelyn Peth, Joyce Dzudzinski, Irma Dorn and Delores Hough- tell, usherettes from the right aisle, tripping gaily the stage Shhhhhhhhhhing the cast so that the guy in the third row, first seat on the aisle, can talk to his neighbor. James Poletes and Herman Wrede, of the stage and house committee flash the lights od' and on signaling in'Morse code to the p o l i c e that everything is alright. In the midst of all this, Leon Zawisza, chairman of publicity, calmly walks on stage and asksifthere is anyone who knows of a good place to put the one remaining poster advertising the play. Just about now, Mrs. Goodyear comes in to clean house and sweeps everyone off their feet, thus clearing the stage. Back in one corner, though, we find Andy Marks and Vera Sackman still 'ftwistingn ipaper that isi for the 'fWelcome Hero'. sign supposed to have been used in the first act They only got a ' far as Wei he and Mrs. Van Vranken thought they had better iisnish it.

I Why-that the Senior Prom is only 28 days away. Congradulations to Mary Lou Bunker, Sally Dickey Marian Krause, Dorothy Stalbum, and P e a r l Williams who were chosen as the five candidates for the queen to reign over the sophomore dance. Loads of luck girls. Everyone starts preparing for for the banquet to be given in honor of Spike. Mr. Esmond discov- ered that he got there before the Russians. They donlt know where because he hasn't started yet but that's just a mere detail. In the midst of all this Marion Antonini, emcee, interrupts the program to announce that a celebrity has just arrived. Elaine Szumigala and Doris Marx usher Rudolph Shomoe- hopper on stage. 'iGads, says Mrs. Warner, As you say my dear, utters Mr. Warner. Bunny runs on stage yvith his hand bandaged, he cut it opening a can of asparagus. The audience goes M-A-D. Her- man and James S. O.

TWO Woodward's baseballers, with a .500 average so far in the City League, go out for victory No. 2 today when they engage Scotts Bulldogs at the Bruins' home grounds, Wilson Park. The Collingwood boys absorbed a beating at the hands of W2lltC'S indians in their first loop fray while the Bears gained their initial win last Tuesday by defeating the East Siders. Robie Has Three Hurlers Ready Coach Leo Robie has three hurlers to choose from with Stanley Bere- zowski, Ralph Stewart, and Glen Rose all in the running. Berezowski sli-rwvctl streaks ol' wildness in his 'starting roles against DeVilbiss and Waite so Rose, who did excellent relief pitching in both city games, may get the starting nod. Stewart was knocked out of the box in the Indian clash but showed hitting prowess by blasting a triple. Larry Kasior is the first-line backstop with Fred Henzler held in reserve. Outfield Sports Hitting Power Most of the Bruin hitting power is concentrated in the out- field where Paul Miller, Andy Nowak, and Jack Sobczak cavort. llowever, there are several boys in the Bear infield who are capa- ble of good stick--work with Ted Rokicki, George Veller, and Al J akubowski listed in this category. Ray V arner is the other regu- lar while First Baseman Sylvester Smith, Catcher Eddie Rutkow- ski, Outfielder Chuck White, and Third Baseman Bill Okorowski form the reserve corps. For the Bulldogs, Clark Cottrill, Porter King, Tom Duhigg, and Dick Denman are the main threats with King a pitcher of some reputation. An- other possible hurling choice is Bill Geiger. RADABAUGH HURLS No-HITTER AGAINST BEARS: WOODWARD Bmrs WAITE, 6-4 Southpaw Harry Radabaugh made Wo0dward's initial league game a dismal failure last Fri- day at Wilson Park as he hurled himself into the high school hall of fame by twirling a no-hit, no- run game to give DeVilbiss a 7-0 victory. Radabaugh faced but 23 men and gave up only three walks in fashioning his near-perfect game. Ted Ro- kicki's long drive to Outfielder Fritz Lauffer was the nearest came to a hit. actually clinched the con- first inning when Bear Berezowski gave up four the Bears DeVilbiss test in the twirler Stan runsg two coming on wild pitches, one on a walk with the bases loaded, and another when Radrabaugh singled to send Jocko Gordon across the plate. In the second inning, the Tigers added another run on errors before Glen Rose came in to relieve Bere- zowski. Rose proceeded to retire the next two batters and the score stood at 5-0 until the fourth when the Ben- gals hunched a double, a triple, and two singles to tally two more mark- ers. Rose gave five hits in the six innings he pitched and shot down eight Upton boys -on strikes as he turned in a good relief job. Rada- baugh mowed down 12 batters with his fast ball. One of the best plays of the game came in the seventh inning when Bear Centerfielder Jack Sobczak went far back to pull down Lauffer's long clout. Most spectators had already conceded LaufTer an extra-base blow when they saw the ball sail high and far straight out centerfield. Coach Leo Robie's baseball nine exploded an eleven hit at- tack against the Waite Indians as they squeaked out a hard- earned 6-4 triumph Tuesday night at the Indians' home- grounds. The hitting and field- ing of the Bruins was in com- plete contrast to last Friday's tilt when they were held hitless and dropped a 7-0 verdict to DeVilbiss. Miller Sparkles At Plate Leftfielder Butch Miller sparkled at the plate with three hits, two doubles and a single in four trips to the plate. His double, sandwiched in between liasior and Nowak's singles drove in two runs. Continuing at this pace, the Bruins romped for two more runs in the next inning as Jack Sob- czak blasted a line drive which the Indian gardner let get past him for a four-base hit. Stewart then brought home the singling George Veller as he smashed a long triple. The Indians' cause was helped along by a two-run error in the second in- ning on Bob Yenrick's punch single to left behind Hogan and Scheafl'er's two consecutive singles. Rose to the Rescue Pitcher Glen Rose again turned in a fine relief role as he rescued the victory for Ralph Stewart after hav- ing taken over in the fourth inning. Stewart had to relieve starter Stan Berezowski, who hasn't been able to round into form as yet. Waite's twirler, Andy Molnar, went the route for the Indians and suffered the defeat. The trio of Bear hurlers gave up only three hits between them, but two errors marred their perfor- mances. LIBBEY BREAKS BENGAL STREAK DeVilbiss' incredible track record ol' not having lost a city meet in nine years came to a halt last Wednesday as Libbey's Cowboys captured I0 of 14 first place positions to down the Tig- ers, 64-54. The Bengals' win- ning streak stood through 61 consecutive track meets over the 9 year period. Bob Coleman and Lynn Allison paced the Cowboys as each accumu- lated 15 points. Coleman annexed the high hurdles and low hurdles in addition to aiding in the 1600-yard re- lay conquest, while Allison took the 220-yard dash, broad jump and was a member of the 800-yard sprint relay squad which came within a second of tying Mansfield's relay mark of 1122.6 in 1939. Coach Chuck Robin- son's South Siders dominated all of the dash and relay events and also took first in the high jump and broad jump contests. Harry Edgington of the Tigers continued undefeatedin the'shot put and discus throws as he easily captured both events. Pole Vaulter Jim Baughrnan also continued unbeaten for DeVilbiss as he won with a vault of only 9' 9 . ' In the other city meet, Scott drubbed Waite's Indians 92242 to 2516 as Bob Sciplin and Clark Cottrill took scoring honors for the Bulldogs. This victory enabled the Collingwood crew to gain a tie for second place with DeVilbiss as Libbey took over undis- puted claim of firse place. Due to these results, Woodward will have a chance to go into a three- way tie for second place if it defeated Waite yesterday. Results were not available at press time. CITY STANDINGS W. L.

TILLER, BUCHHOLZ AMASS 29 1-4 POINTS IN 70-47 VICTORY Woodward's victory - starved track team feasted last week Thursday on a hapless Central crew, 'as they ran the Irish into the dust by an impressive score of 70-47. After six long years of trying for a victory, this one was indeed a satisfying meet for Coach Doc Welever and his thinelads. Tiller, Buchholz Star Dick Tiller and Dick Buchholz were the outstanding individuals for the Bear tracksters. Tiller gathered 15 points as he completely outclassed his opponents by winning the discus throw with a heave of 122' 9 , then coming back to tie for the pole vault with 8'6 along with Bud Ziems, and also the broad jump with a leap of 19' 9 . Just to add further prestige, Tiller copped a third .place in the 220-yard run. Blazing close behind for scoring honors, was Captain Dick Buchholz who swept home in first place in both the mile and half mile events. Dick added four more points to his total by taking a second place in the broad jump. Other first place point getters for the North Enders were fleet- footed Steve Kania, who tied with Central's Al Ball in the 100-yard dash in 10:6 seconds, ln the quarter mile event, Wood- ward's Don Silka racked up a first place with teammate Kenny lflble finishing behind him. High hurdler Chuck Samson stepped to the top place in his event by copping an easy first spot. Woodward's two lap team of George Sabbaugh, Cal Harding, Jim Waller, and Vince Gallo, however, didn't fare so well as the Cherry Streeters chalk- ed up a hrst place against them. The tables were turned, however, in the four lap event as the Bears got back the five points with Jack Easterwood, Dick Buchholz, Ralph Gardner, and Don Silka teaming for a win. Bruins Grab Eight Firsts Central managed five Hrst places compared to the Bruins' eight. Top performance for the Irish cause was dash man Al Ball, who tied forgfirst in the 100-yard dash and then took a first in the 220-yard run. Central's Pietryzkowski grabbed top honors in the low hurdles, while Todd tossed the shot put 42 feet and Jerry McClos- key copped the high jump for the other two firsts that Central gar- nered. More top scorers for the Bruins were Eddie Houghtaling, who copped six points by virtue of his two sec- ond places in the half mile and one mile trek, Bud Ziems with 4 pointsg Harvey, 4g Ken Eble, 33 Bob Rut- kowski, 33 Jack Easterwood, 21115 Red Gardner, lkrg Jack DeBord, 1, and Kline, also with one point. f I Pat's Patter Tonight the Girls' Leaders Club is presenting the Leaders' Leap.

The answers received were very unusual and surprising. When the Wood- wardi-tes were confronted with the question of work, their first reaction was one of surprise and their reply was usually: Work? Who, me? There were quite a few, however, who admitted that they were work- ing at some job or another. The most.common occupation was that of clerking. Others included: office worker, stock boys, nurses' aides, and even baby sitters. The first working man we dues- tioned was Wally Nowicki, senior, whoiis employed as a clerk at No- VV1Ck1,S Market. Wally stated that he loved his work Cjokeb, especially the beautiful women who come in and the. only disagreeable feature was their husbands who come in with them. fTough luck, Wally.l ' Next on our list is Gloria Wro-bel, senior, who works in the office at the Demaline Truck Sales Kr Service. Gloria, who is easy to please, says she enjoys everything about her work. fThey must pay her well.J Mary Mahaley, junior,,also lfkes everything about her job of office worker at Lasalle's. When asked what she liked best, Mary replied: The money. fDon't we all?j Now we have an employee of Tiedtke's. Al Jakubowski, senior, works there as a stock boy. Al en- joys his work and finds only one thing wrong with it, and that is the stuffy rooms, and the lack of fresh air. fMay we suggest, you try street cleaning.l Another employee of Tiedtkels is Shirley Managhan, senior, who works at the wrapping desk., Shirley's only comment was that she likes her work but dislikes her boss. flf Shirlev's boss gets to read the Tattler, Shirley won't be working for very long.l Andy Douglas, sophomore, who works as a stock boy at Joseph's market, gave his opinion of his job. Andy likes the money, but dislikes the work. This same opinion is shared by Mary Jane Miller, junior. who works as sales clerk at the Home Furniture. fTo these two all we can say is money isn't everything, or is it?J Bob Synder, freshman, spends time at the Jankowski residence where he is employed as a baby sitter. St. Vincent's Hospital claims Phyl- lis Sosnowicz, senior, as one of their nurses aides. Phyllis likes her work because there is Unuff to eat! and dislikes the part of not nuff pay . Rita Palicki, senior, gets hor salary from the Board of Education where she does office work. Annette Pyle, junior, wants to make some man a good wife. She works as a housekeeper on Elm Street, but it's really just as practice. She doesn't like the work. , Lamson's keeps its customers happpy by employing Joan Kosmatka, junior, as sales clerk. The only as- pect of her job Joanie dislikes is the disagreeable people on whom she has to wait. So there you have the opinions of several ofthe Woodwardites on une Subject of work. This poll prove-2 conclusively that 99 people out of 100 enjoy working for money, but I am the one person who enjoys working for nothing. After all don't I work in the Tattler OfTice?'?

A panel made up of experts from Toledo Chapters of Future Teachers of America spoke on subjects ranging from opportunities in the teaching field to teaching as a challenge, at a confer- ence held at Toledo University Thurs- day April 22, 1948. Thirty members of W H S. 's chapter and Miss Ethel Kerlin turned out for this program at which Ted Rokicki, junior, acted as a panel member. . President Wilbur White welcomed the group in the Doerman Theatre by explaining the need for better and bet- ter people in this profession. Ten stu- dents of Brancroft Hills school then gave four choral readings. Harold J, Bowers, State Department of Education, fhen stepped to the mi- crophone to innumerate the iields that hold greater opportunities. These are business education, music, physical ed- ucation, home economics and vocation- al agriculture. E. L. Bowsher, Superin- tendent of Toledo Public schools, told the audience in his talk that he can pro- mise everyone entering the elementary field a job in the next six years, pro- viding they maintain high scholastic re- cords throughout their college days- The convention ended as tours were conducted through the various depart- ments, with everyone meeting at the Student Union for a tea prepared by the Home Economice department of the university.

Abair Receives Honor ' Today during the first hour, pupils of Miss Angela Abair's classes, headed by John Sinkovic and Fred Henzler pre- sented her with a certificate that enters her in The Best 'Teacher of the Year Contest . These two boys with the assistance of Mrs. Mary O'Brien, and other stud- ents of Miss Abair's classes, submitted an essay on why they consider her the best teacher. First prize in this contest which shall be judged at the termination of the school year, will be S2,500, with two second prizes of 551,000 each. Rumor has it that Mrs. Dorothy Ma- theny is cherishing one of these certifi- cates too. Aeolians Sponsor Spring Dance B.B.B.

Yes, tonight at 8:00 o'clock, in the Woodward Ballroom, you circus fans will have a chance to attend the Barnum and Bailey Bouncef' Music for this aiair will be furnished by Paul Maybe and his orchestra. Through the efforts of the Aeolian Club members, everything in the line of circus decorations have been made. To carry out the circus atmosphere, the decoration com- mittee cleverly designed lolly-pops, ice cream cones, animals, cages, and even barkers. The windows will be blocked by blue satin curtains. Prom Plans Discussed of the senior class as- thc auditorium, Monday, ll schedule to hear dis- cussions concerning the senior prom and banquet. After a short introduction, Bob Aubry, president of the senior class, turned the meeting over to C. C. LaRue. First, Mr. LaRue read a letter addressed to all senior girls in- viting them to attend a program on Sunday, May 2, at Mary Manse Col- lege. A boat excursion is planned for all seniors in the senior high schools on June 3. The trip will be along Lake Erie. Fees were also discussed for graduation. Diploma fee will be twenty-five centsg corsages for the girls will cost fifty cents. The sen- ior banquet and bid for the senior prom will be 332.50 each. Ed Lair, chairman of the senior so- cial committee, announced that a sen- ior party and dance would be held in the girls' gym on May 4, during the B schedule.

Phillip really did quite well portraying an old farmer with his blue jeans, straw hat, and corn cob pipe lnot to mention his double barrel shot gunli Ronald Brenneman has alittle supporting ,role there, which the audi- ance enjoyed, especially the buckshot he pretended to have received in the seat of his pants. A gayly decorative living room was in view as the first curtain went up for scene one. Patricia Pawlak entered the stage with the motherly, and gossipy attitude which was just fitting for the part of Mrs. Blanche Goodyear. Pat really made the play go over big as she was the character who caused all the confusion with her flair for ex- aggerating rather small events. We even enjoyed her grey hair and tears which made her like a typical mother. The daughter of Mrs. Goodyear was acted by Phyllis Sosnowicz, who had the a u d i e n c e rollicking about her troubles with her Big mouth lover, Bunny Wheelenplayed by John Sexton. The audience enjoyed the scenes when Grace gave Bunny back his ring and picture. Douglas' girlfriend, Virginia Fergu- son, could not have been played any better than it was by Laverne Steffan. She knew just the right way to make him propose. fEven though it is Leap Yearn Annette Cloverdale and Adel- aide Young were both well acted by Sue Ignatowicz and Patricia Kaczma- rek, respectfully. Being the only female member of the Hero's Club we won der if Sue got her fraternal kiss. President of the Hero's Club, Baxter Warner, played by Ronald Brenneman should have acted more hen-peeked when he re eated the line As you say my dear. l-Ire could have been more tim- id. His wife, Mrs. Baxter Warner, was unrecognizable as Mary Zarn. Her part as a nagging wife added more laughter to the play, Finally our HERO, Douglas Good' year returned from France. The audi- ence was very anxious to see this he- man and was very pleased when small and very cute Ralph Wise entered the stage. He fitted t h e role excellently and received m a n y congradulations for his wonderful acting. A nose for news and just like a re- porter was Philip Hall who did well as Victore Esmond in the plav. The poor boy got all the blame for printing the stories of a hero which were told to him by the hero's mother. l Mlle. Claudette Bordoni, alias Virgi- nia Weiss, had the audience in sus- pense until she appeared on stage. An accent and slinky dress really added to the success of her part. With his broad shoulders and athletic appearance Mike Zydel did well as the champion swimmer Spike Ryder. Between acts the audience was enter- tained with a fine piano solo by Ray- mond Haddad - and dances by Mary Jane Hull a n d Dorothy Stallbaum. During intermission Jaunita Tarki sang Memories of Franceuwhich was very timely. In conclusion the playended success- fully and was due to the cooperation received from everyone participating. Mrs. Isla Van Vranken deserves much credit for her tireless service as direc- tor of the play. Engineering Society To Present Father And Son Banquet Once again Woodward's oldest or- ganization, the Engineering Society, will present its annual father and son banquet. As usual the banquet will be at the Toledo Women's Building on Wednesday, May 5, at 6:30 p.m. This banquet, under the capable guidance of William F.

Miss Helen Marie Griffin is the advisor of the Aeolian Club, but due to illness, Mrs. Peterson substituted. President of this organization is Pat Pawlak. FOR FUN, MUSIC, AND DANCING, ATTEND THE BARNUM AND BAILEY BOUNCE TONIGHT! Fashion Preview Held Garnering good points in grooming was the result of a fashion preview which took place Tuesday in the aud- itorium. This was sponsored by the Simplicity Pattern Company. Miss Heinz, representative of the business, served as speaker and discussed the costumes as they were modeled. These costumes were supplied by the company and were brought here from New York City. Students from Mrs. Lola Bowyer and Miss Blanche Hazleton's classes served as models.

The nominating commit- tee was composed of Ernie Simpson, Bob Aubry, and Bob Johnson, along with Mr. Rohr. THE WOODWARD TATTLER I LETS COMPARE FOR A SOLUTION O CREATE a comparison we must have two opposing factors. For instance, lets take two assembly periods offering two different types of programs, but both are given for the benefit of the same audience. Our first program is a musical one. From various View points, we gather that members of the listen- ing audience were very rude. But then someone else tells us that the director of the performing musical organization made excuses for the unsuccessfulness of their musical renditions, such as, We need more practice on that one. On the other hand we hear the c o m pl aint , Gee, they didn't even sing any good songs? Also, They didnit pay any attention to their director. Well, now'let's bring our second program into the picture. Mind you, the same group of students have been invited but a different type of entertain- ment has been planned. This assembly promises to be just a speaker, no music and maybe not even a joke since his topic is European Conditions. Yet what do we hear in all third hour classes the same day, 'fThat's the best B schedule weive had in months. We need more of them. Does that sound like reasoning done by a rude, discourteous audi- ence? Weive had many complaints about our first pro' gram. Complaints saying that we should write an 'editorial and bawl the student body out good and proper. What we'd like to say is as follows: have you considered every angle: the type of program, the audience, the individual in that audience? And the person participating in that program, his ap- pearance, his attitude, and his contributions to the Program? We suggest that everyone attending auditorium assemblies consider the fellow next to him and the fellow up there on the stage. If there's something on the program that you don't like, take it in your stride because it might be just what your neighbor is listening for. Remember, its possible tha he doesn't give a hoot for what you came to hear. YOU COMPLAIN BUT DO YOU WORK? CC DONT LIKE TO READ THE TATTLER ANY MORE commments one of Woodward's stu- dents who not only speaks for himself but for everone who reads the school paper. Why? For the simple reason that the same names are con- stantly being printed. V Is this the fault of the Tattler staff who try their best to put out a paper that everyone will enjoy reading? News is printed as it comes and from week to week the same students are in the news be- cause they have prove their capability to take charge of anything assigned to them. Given full charge of any affair is quite a task and is there- fore given to someone who can be depended upon. Thus, since there are not many students taking interest in school life, the few who do, find them- selves, time after time, being chosen by thier fel- low classmates to represent them in class or club affairs. Getting down to facts, not even one half of Wood- ward students participate in school activites as they should. Do you think these students deserve to have thier names printed in the paper? Everyone likes to see their name in print. So stu- dents, why not take more interest in your school so the Tattler may proudly print your name in connec- tion with hard work, dependability, and most of all .honor. Our hats are off to the few who are in the lime light week after week. Its to their own credit if they are the choice of their classmates for leader- ship. STOP! THINK! . YOU PAY IN THE END ROUND this time of year an old saying we hear a lot of is ln Spring a young man's fancy turns to love , well, in Woodward we have a diferent problem. Many students, girls too, begin to think of cutting classes. We know it is difficult to keep your mind on school when the weather outside beckons, but it is worth it? When a class is skipped you just have to make it up after school, when you could be outside enjoying the weather. All in all it doesn't pay in the end. It makes a bad impression on the deans of the student and t 'e missed time must be made up. So next time yon think of bumming a class remember there is only about a month and half left of school, after that we can be outside as much as the time and weather permit. Those big brown eyes of Vince Gallo really charm the girls. Right Tessie? 1 Leon's Senior Prom Is Only 21 Days Away All you circus fans rclowns included J come to the Barnum 8: Bailey Bounce tonight.

Crogham Chatter How To Skip Class In Four Easy Lessons Now that spring is here, summer too, for that matter, kids find it harder to spend the lazy hours of the day in class. If you areone of these kids we suggest you skip a class here and there. It will be hard to get into the swing of it, but once you try it you'll easily slip into the habit. ' ' First your choice of the class your going to skip: not the hard subjects like lunch, study hall, and three o'clock class, but the easy ones like trigono- metry or chemistry. h Second, what to do when you skip, don't go. any- place where you'll be seen such as in a closet in the Tattler Office or the rest rooms on the fourth floor. Try someplace where they would never think to look for you, like the deans' offices or better yet just stand in the hall. No-one will see you. Third, the alibi, if there's one thing a teacher doesn't like itls someone who is constantly giving excuses. So you be different. Tell what you did and she'll be proud of your originality and you'll come sailing through fthe doori without a penalty. . Last, but not least, have faith and confidence in your ability to succeed. If at first you don't succeed, try, try again. Snoopy Q's What scheme do you follow to keep your mind on your homework during study periods on beau- tiful spring days. .

Woodward Loses To Waite, 66-52 4 In quest of their second con- secutive triumph, Woodward's thin-clads were bitterly disap- pointed as the Waite Indians smashed the Bears' victory hopes by pounding out a 66-52 win last Thudsday on the Waite cinders. Once again ,Bearmen Dick Buchholz and Dick Tiller led the Bruins in point-getting, and managing 11 markers. Tiller copped first in the broad jump with a leap of 18 ft. 4 in. and the pole vault with 9 ft. 9 in. He also garnered a third in the discus throw. Captain Buchholz again swept home in iirst place in the mile event, and took two second spots, one in the half mile and the other in the broad jump. The only first positions the Blue and White gathered were Chuck Sam- son's victory in the 120 yard hurdles, the mile relay triumph, and the half- mile relay team of Cal Harding, .lim Waller, Steve Kania, and Vince Gallo. The Indians, paced by Lyle lVlyrice's two firsts in the shot put and the discus and Thomp- son's duo victories in the 100 yard dash and 220 yard jaunt. romped for eight first places. Waite's other top spots came in the 440 yard run, the 220 yard hurdles, the 880 yard trek, and the high jump. Samson, Kania Tally Coach Doc Welever's other top point men were dashmen Steve Kania with 514 tallies, Samson with 5, Bob ltutkowski with 3, and Don Silka with 2-IA. Woodward's Bruins now sport a record of one victory in three starts, their only win coming against the Central Irish. Ha1Va11TaSSe1PaCeS ISCHOLASTIC BASEBALL Woodward in Swim Win In the recent high school Hi-Y meet, Woodward, swimming only in the senior group, due to lack of natators, copped the meet by ammassing 36 points, a- gainst 10 by Scott, their nearest rival. Ralph Wise took second in diving with teamate, Francis Harris coming third. In the 25 yd. breaststroke Chuck Samson took a third. In five other events, Wood- ward was first, 3 ofthese were taken by Hal Van Tassel, the fast developing freshman. Copping the 25, 50 and 100 yd free style events, he ammassed 15 of the 36 point total. Don Samson took the 25 yd. backstroke and the relay teams composed of Chuck Samson, Ralph Wise, Francis Harris and Lee Studer took first. DeVilbiss won the junior event. 'Woodward was not entered.

I .1 ENDS IN EIGHT DAYS Toledois seven high schools swing into the final eight days of the baseball season today with six of the schoolboy teams seeing action. To date, league competition has been very tough as can be verified by the fact that every ball club has met defeat at least once. ' DeVilbiss, Macomber in First Place Deadlock DeVilbiss' Tigers became the final team in the league to have a loss chalked up against them when the Irish of Central Catholic handed them a 12-1 drubhing last Friday, knocking Harry No-Hit Radabaugh out of the bok. However, the Bengals still managed to gain a tie for the top spot, de- spite the Central defeat. Macomber is the other co-holder of the league lead, sporting a 2-1 record. Battling for second place is hot and heavy as three teams, Libbey, Scott, and Central, now are knotted for the runnerup position with 1-1 standings. The other two squads, Woodward and Waite, each have records of 1-2, but the competition is so game separates the nrst and last place teams. Glen Rose Slated To Pitch battles finds the Bears traveling over to Willy's with the hustling Macomber Mechanics in a game which promises to be a thriller. In an effort to beat the Craftsmen and gain a tie with them in the league standings, Coach Leo Robie will probably send Glen Rose to the mound. liven though Rose took a battering from Scott, he is the only Bruin hurler who has shown any ability thus far. ln the Blue and White hitting department, Paul Butch Miller seems to be the top man with the stick while other potential swatters are Ralph Stewart, Larry Kasior, and Jack Sobczak. Held in reserve on the Bear pitching corps will be Stanley Berezowski, Red Blaha, and Gene Rose. With hopes of bolstering his staff, Coach Robie has added southpaw Bud White to his twirling department. Craftsmen Try For Undisputed Possession Taking a look at the Macomber roster, we find such stars as pitchers Dick Bak, Bill Sieler, and Norm Kubicz, Second Baseman Wootie Gearheart, Catcher Bob Kubicz, and Outfielder Louie Kwader. These boys form the nucleus of the Craftsmen team which will be out for its third loop win and a chance for undisputed possession of first place. DeVilbiss draws a bye, therefore leaving the top spot wide open if Macomber defeats the Bears. In other league frays, Scott and Central will clash, with each team having a chance to tie DeVilbiss, while Libbey takes on Waite in a game which no doubt will be hotly contested due to the rivalry which has sprung up between the two schools in recent years. The Cowboys also have a chance to gain a deadlock for the loop lead if they can get by the East Siders. scoTT srors BEARS, 11105-io, - AS EACH TEAM GETS 6 Hrrs Sc0tt's Bulldogs tallied three runs in the Iirst inning last Friday and never relinquished the lead as they romped to a 15-10 victory over Woodward. The Bulldogs gained two of these runs on walks with the bases loaded and the other on an error as they set the scoring pattern for themselves and the Bears for the re- mainder of the contest. Both clubs managed only six hits each and they also committed three errors apiece as ragged fielding was prevalent throughout the fracas. Stewart, Cottrill Hit Homers Woodward came back with one run in its half of the first as Butch Miller singled and then stole three consecutive bases, in- cluding home plate. However, the Collingwood crew breezed into a 6-1 lead in the second frame when Second Baseman,Clarki Cottrill rammed a terrific home run over Left Fielder Miller's head with Bill Hart and Bobby Graver on base. Fighting hard, the Bruins smashed across four runs in the last of the second with Larry Kasior's double and Ralph Stewart's four-master featuring the assault. Stewart's homer was a wicked line drive to left center which bounded over Jim Bailey's head. Five Hurlers Fail To Stop Scott lt was close up until the third inning, but then the Scotters collected four more tallies on a base on balls with the sacks jammed and a long triple by Len Plunkett, also with the bases loaded, to clinch the contest. The closest the Bears came after that was in the fifth inning when they pulled up to only a two-run deficit, 12-10. But the Bulldogs promptly came bar-k in the sixth frame with another three tallics as Paul Miller let Bobby Giaver's single to left center go through him for a home run on an error. Coach Leo Robie sent hurlers Glen Rose, Stan Berezowski, Red Blaha, Gene Rose, and Ralph Stewart to theimound in a vain attempt to stop the Bulldogs. i I . keen that only one One of the top Park for a tussle THE WOODVVARD TATTLER Four Students - Two Girls Attend Pat's Pattel' Attend Stassen F.

Stassen at Macomber high school. Before the program everyone talked politics. The assembly began with the singing of the National anthem, with everyone parti- cipating. Following this W il lia m J. Wade, chairman, greeted everyone and intro- duced the various guests. Each speaker, who was either a delegate or alternate of the Lucas and Ottawa Counties in- troduced the next. Of the four intro- duced, Clint D. Whitaker, alternate, was the only one with any political experience. The next speaker was Mrs. Lois Cos- sitt, delegate.

Everyone in the packed to its seat- ing capacity auditoriumf' stood and re- mained on their feet till Stassen began to speak and then resumed their seats. The stately speaker began by telling the attentive audience that the eyes of the Nation are upon Ohio on the Re- publican Nominee. He stated that Ohio is playing a part in the Republican de- cision in America, which is of great importance. Mr. Stassen then firmly stated that all men and women have concluded that three years of the pre- sent policy is enough and that a new one is needed.

The Republicans are for strengthen- ing the U.N. and establishing a World Police Force, and they are against Uni- versal Militarfy Training. They are for helping countries that are at peace and want to be free, send them goods and material and stop sending supplies to countries that are secret in their doings such as Russia.

ITH the end of the 47-48 school year drawing to a climax, the clubs, organizations, and lit- erary societies of Woodward are beginning to hold their annual elections. But are these elections to be held as they should? That is, based on character, and other traits which a student should posess in order to hold any cabin- ent position. Although this may not seem import- an-t to you now, the failure or success of an organ- ization depends largely on the people who run it. Of course, the members at large also have much to do with it running smoothly, but the officers are given responsibility to select chairmen and com- mittees for the various social and literary event , according to what the organization is engaged in doing. Past experience shows that sometimes half of the club officers were elected because of the stu- dent's popularity and not capability. Surely you students who participate in these club activities want someone in office who will be an asset to the club in which you claim membership. Electing officers wisely is for your own good, and for the good of yonr organization if you want it to succeed So think it over and when the time comes for you to make a decision make sure in your mind ,that you will vote as you think best. To those who will be elected to hold offices for the coming year, we sincerely hope you will con- sider your job important and carry out duties to the best ot your ability. ' TEACHER'S rewards are few and far between. i But when they do come they are usually well X 'worth the waiting. One .of our faculty members who has the thank- less job of teaching boys every hour of the day, 0 Editorials with the exception of one class, has received such an honor Known as Ma to all her students, this teacher has wor ed her way into the hearts of these boys. When a unexpected visitor enters her room, the boys stand which is just one example of her practical teaching. Most everyone would think Oh well they just do that in class. This fortunately is false. The fact that the boys appreciate what Miss An- gela Abair is doing is evident for they not only claim her as a constant favorite but are endeavor- ing to do something for her in return by entering her nam r in The Best Teacher of The Year con- test. We're sure that Miss Abair feels as we do that everyone behind this action should take a bow. You too,Miss Abair. Our congratulations to you and we know it's a memorable event, one that will not be soon forgotten. HE time will soon arrive when juniors, sopho m o r e s, and freshmen will make out their choice cards for next year. Too many times students are apt to select the subjects that are easy just so they can get by or else they take them because their friends do. Neither one of the reasons above is a good one for picking out a schedule for next year. What should be considered is if that subject will do us the most good in future life. Whether or not a per- son is planning to go on to a higher school has nothing to do with it. If going to college is being planned by a pupil his subjects should betchoosen accordingly to prepare him. . Whatever your course is after you leave high school remember your education is free and your years at school arenit very long so don't look back at them with regret. I i Leon's I Senior Prom Is Only 14 Days Away Today I'll start off by sayirg io all gru readers that ifyou haven't had your name appear in my column, you have only about four weeks to do it in, So better hurry up and letis fill that Tatt- ler box with gossip. It's up to you! While fishing at Port Clinton Sunday, Eugene Hollinger almost fell in the drinks lwater,. Gene was so excited because one of his companions caught a fourteen inch carp, and while running with the fish to put it on the stringer, he slipped and almost fell in.Gene also celebrated his birthday on May 2. Birthday greetings, CASSANOVA! Well boys, seniors, only, it looks like they put up that ole' yearly sign-ONLY 14 DAYS TILL THE SENIOR PROM .This signwas put up by Red Varner and Jack Smith. Catch your bait now fellas. Apologies are extended to Dan Wisniewski, who was omitted from a news story that appeared in last F riday's edition of the Tattler. Dan is the new sergeant-at-arms for the Polish Lits. Congratula- tions Dan, and we're awfully sorry for the error. That spring fevor bug has bitten the hearts of Charles Richard and Tessie Stachowiak. Ah, what spring can do to some. What's this I've been hearing about the first and second hour auto mechanics sponsoring a rol- ler skate. Good idea boys-at least that's one way of securing money for a good cause. Instead of having a party after the last perform- ance of The Tin Hero, the cast and committees de- cided to have a roast. This roast is scheduled for May 22, day after the senior prom. ' Ralph Wise and Pat Pawlak, as well as the other members of the cast should be complimented for the fine dramatization of The Tin Hero. Pat took the Academy Award for her fine portrayal of the moth- er. Orchids of congratulation are extended to Mom Abair for receiving a certificate which enters her in the Best Teacher of the Y e a r Contest . She really deserves an honor like that. At the first day performance of The Tin Hero John Klockowski was seen with Evelyn Huston. Evelyn is wearing his birthstone ring which merely means that they also are on the long list of steady couples. X M. We were greatly honored by the recent visit of our former Tattler editor, Dick Dressel. Dick grad- uated in January. It was really good to see you back again.

Her typing skill really comes in handy, doesn't it Sue? Two sharp seniors have developed the new look in a big way.

The llruins now have two wins matched against two defeats. t ' Woodward's two doubles team again came through with five wins out of' a possible six in their matches. Seniors Dick Steger and Bob Aubry copped two of three matches, 6-4,6-6, and 6-4. The Bears other duo of Lehr Whitney and Don WuJC13k took the measure of their opponents easily, making a clean sweep by scores ol' 6-2, 6-3. and 6-l. Iieon Schwartz and Morris lteichlin, however, could only gain one victory apiece in their single matches. Schwartz's scores were 6-2, 4-6, and 2-6, while Reichlin had to come back in his last game to salvage a win. The scores were 0-6, 1-6, and 6-5. Central, Macomber Defeat Bears As Gilmore, Sieler Twirl Wins Macomber's Mechs took undis- Glen Rose, Bear hurler, baf- puted possession of first place as they handed W oodward's Bears a decisive 14-5 drubbing in the city high school base- ball league last Friday. Four Bruin hurlers paraded to the mound, but none could stop the bats of the Craftsmen. Starter Glen Rose suffered the loss as the Monroe Streeters racked up three runs in the initial inning on Louie Kwader's long triple with the bases loaded. In the fourth frame, the Bruins finally mustered enough stick work to load the sacks and when a pitched ball eluded the Mechanic catcher, Georgie Veller raced home with the Bears' first tally. Butch Miller then singled to send two more Bruin runners across the plate. However, the Craftsmen promptly came back in the fifth to romp for seven runs, en- abling them to coast the rest of the way. In this inning, the Vocational boys batted around, with Kwader's single and triple and Third Base- man Holtfreter's four-master being the big blows of the inning. Miller Blasts Homer To add a little luster to the Bears' efforts, Paul Miller blasted a four ply swat behind the doubling Ray Varner for the Bruins' final brace of iallies. Once again, however, the Macomber lads came back with a Mluece of markers to match the Bears' tr-y. Sparkling in the Blue and White hitting department were Butch Miller, ,lack Sobczak, Larry Kasior, and George Veller. Each of these four boys rapped out two blows with Miller's homer and single pacing the attack. Power boys of' the Mechs were in- fielder Louie Kwader with three hits, including two triples, and Holtfretter with his home run and one-bagger. Winning hurler was Bill Sieler with the iid of teammate Dick Bak's relief 'wor . Boys' Here Army Talk Senior boys, who are eighteen and will graduate,were given a talk about enlisting in the armed forces during the assembly on May 11. The Army re- cruiting officers asked the boys to sign a paper if they were interested in 'oin- J -ing the Army. fled Central batters for four in- nings, pitching no-hit ball along this route. But the Irish were determined not to be shut out as they plated two runs in the fourth inning to send Coach Leo Robie's crew down in defeat, 2-0, Tuesday night at Wilson Park. Catcher Dick Hoppe of the Irish got the first hit for the Irish behind a walking teammate. Rose then got himself into more hot water as he is- sued the next man a pass to first, loading the sacks. Butch Gulyas, Central pivot man, proved to be the ace in the hole as he punched a sharp single into left, plating a run and sending Stan Berezowski in to re- lieve Rose on the mound. Berezowski, unfortunately, uncorked a wild pitch and the damage was done. Bears Fail In Clutch The Bears had a couple of golden opportunities to wrap up the ball game, but no one could come through with a bingle in the clinch. With the bags jammed in the second inning and two down, diminutive Butch Miller poled one into left field only to have it gobhled up by left fielder Lawson, a 6'4 gardener. ln the hitting department, the Bears outhit the Irish, 5-2, but the Cherry Streeters' ability to bunch them proved the difference. Dick Hoppe and Butch Gulyas were the only Irish to get hits. The Bear hits were pretty evenly divided, with Miller, Jakubowski, Veller, Kasior, and Rokicki each getting one. How- ever, three miscues marred the Bears' defensive playing though they did chalk up their second double play of the season. VVinning hurler for the Irish was southpaw Jack Gilmore who went the route for the Irish triumph. DATES TO BE SET As soon as the date is set by the Board of Education all F.T.A. members who intend to teach elementary schools, will visit grade schools, and see how the actual process of teaching young children is carried on. OODWARD ENDS BASEBALL EASON TODAY XDOUBLEHEADER SLATED FOR SWAYNE FIELD 3 TOURNAMENT STARTS MONDAY All but two City League teams close their seasons today at Swayne Field, home of the Mud Hens, with the initial game of a doubleheader scheduled to start at 2:00. Central's third-place Irish will tangle with Ma- comber's Mechanics in the first contest, while Woodward tackles Libbey in the second game slated to begin at 4:00. In the other league tilt, DeVilbiss trav- els to Scott to engage the Bull- dogs in the final fray of the year for the Bengals. Wood- ward, Central, and Libbey also end their season today but Ma- comber and Scott still have to clash before they can terminate their baseball season. Waite ended its season yesterday when it clashed with DeVilbiss. The Craftsmen were the league lead- ers, up until our press time, but if Scott managed to top Libbey yesterday then the Bulldogs would gain a tie for the lead. Rose or Berezowski To Pitch Coach Leo Robie's Polar Bears still could elude the cellar, the difficulty of this task being largely determined by yesterday's Waite-DeVilbiss game. If the Tigers won, Woodward could deadlock the Indians for the cellar if they defeat the Cowboys today. How- ever, if the Indians won, Scott would have to upset the Tigers today in order for the Bears to have a chance of tying Deifilbiss for last place. The Bruins have indicated a deficiency at the plate through- out the year with Leftfielder Paul Miller's sterling slugging power being the only bright spot in the Bear offense. But Wood- ward has shown sparks of plate power with First Baseman Ted Rokicki, Second Baseman George Veller, Catcher Larry Kasior, and outfielders Jack Sobczak and Ralph Stewart all having good batting days at least once. Third Baseman Al Jakubowski and Shortstop Ray Varner complete the regular Bruin lineup. In the hurling department, Mentor Robie has to rely on either Stan Berezowski or Glen Rose, the only two Bear pitchers to show anything throughout the season. Gene Rose, Red Blaha, and Ralph Stewart also are twirlers but none are likely to pitch unless Rose and Berezowski get knocked out of the box. Tournament Begins Monday Drawings were held Tuesday at the Y.M.C.A. for the district baseball tournament with Wood- ward getting Waite for its first opponent next Tuesday at Wil- son Park. Tournament play is slated to start Monday, May 12, with Maumee meet- ing Scott at Willys Park, Perrysburg tangling with Libbey at Highland Park, and Macomber encountering De- Vilbiss at Merrill Field. Play con- tinues Tuesday with Whitmer clash- ing with Central, Sylvania hooking up with the winner of the Maumee- Scott fray, and the winners of the Macomber-DeVilbiss, Libbey-Perrys- burg games meeting. Semi-finals are scheduled for May 12 at Merrill and Wilson Fields, while the finals will be played Thursday, May 13, at Mer- rill field. Tiller, Relay Team Score At DeVilbiss ln the recent DeVilbiss Night ltelays, Woodward's representa- tives tallied 7 IX5 points for the highest total compiled by a Bear team in five years. Pole Vaulter Dick Tiller and Wood- ward's relay team of Ken Eble, John Easterwood, Ed Houghtaling, and Don Silka combined to accumulate the Polar -Bear markers. Tiller earned :ik points by tying with four other vaulters for first place, while the re- lay squad placed fourth in their event for the other 4 tallies. DeVilbiss' poleuvaulter, Jim Baughman, failed to.w1n his speciality for the first time this year as he vaulted only 10'6 , a mark which he has topped several times this season. Libbey Surprised Libbey's Cowboys were surprised when the final score was marked upon the board because DeVilbiss had retained its title in defeating previ- ously unbeaten Libbey. The Cow- boys were also edged by Sandusky as their favorite role failed to gain the win for them. In the class B division, Lakeside captured victory honors over second-place Oak Harbor VIKLSEE Sl-IVRTS We now have celebrity in our midst Miss Catherine McClure is now 1 mem ber ofthe Blade 5l0 club for women. This means you must bowl three games 170 or over. Miss McClure accomplished this with a high game.-of 201. She was awarded a pin from the Blade. Congratu- lations, Miss McClure! if 41 if This week Soo's Sluggers and Ray- mond's Riorts are on top wlth three wins and no losses. 11 is PF A very small- profit was made from the Leaders'Club Dance. It was approxi- mately 52.85. in a last-minute photo finish. Going into the final event, Lakeside trailed by 256' counters but James Smorgola, voted the outstanding class B track- man by the Blade, soared high in the pole vault competition and captured first place to give his team a 176 point margin over Oak Harbor. Jim Maher, DeVilbiss' outstanding athlete, was awarded the class A, honor for be- ing the top cinder man of the evening. Days Gone By While the av-:rage student of Wood- ward were attending meetings during the B schedule last week, the Tattler Staff members decided to visit t h e r e favorrite hangout, the T. O. Being tem- porarily out of my mi n d, I suggested that we study. Like a fiash, I was cramp- ed into one ofthe file cabinets. But luck- ily it was one containing Sagas of long ago. So I switched on my pocket flash light -- anything can happen in a story and began to read of Days G o n e By. A 1 I Upon turning to ode ofthe Tattlers We find in bold type: T a l kie to be in stalled here. At last Woodward is pro- gressing, just t h i n k movies with talk- ing. November 4, 1932 PK 22 211 1936 Tattler under the headline I pre- fer a Dictator we find the following articles. The best of them all assert- ed C.C. LaRue, when asked his opinion on dictators. There is nothing better for immediate action. Powerful and economical, they speedily accomplish what they set out to do. Principal LaRue, a confirmed Stude- baker owner, just purchased a Dictator Planar Sedan. vi: 721 is Proving the superiority of the Tatt- ler to the Saga, the astounding fact comes up that on February 22, 1939 the T. O. met the Saga on the cage floor and soundly trounced them 18-12. lk fl! Sis In the 1940 Woodward l'arent.Teach- eris Association started plans for an- other membership drive with the win- ning home room receiving a free trip to the Woodward-Marion football game. The drive ended with 540 memberships. The Tattler Staff won the trip. :is :Qc Il: Believe it or not with apoligies to Ripleyl Woodward had a football team in 1921 that never played a game. The team worked out at Ottawa Park every evening although they didn't play one game during the year. Saga Tattler Oct. 31, 19301 1 14 ik In 1930 the Commerce Club sponsored noon day nickel d a n c e s which were similar to the dances we now have be- fore school. The music was provided by the sophomore orchestra.

Profits from this event helped pay for club pictures in the Saga. Not a bad idea, what say? P24 1F Pk Back in January 15, 1932 issue of the Tattler, we find an interesting article on a father-son combination. The father was freshman boys' advisor while the son was reporter of the j u n i o r class. The father was S. B. C r o u s e and the boy his son, Ray. if HK if Leafing through the 1932 Saga Tatt- ler, this headline in bold type struck our attention: Miss Hazel Coy, New Nurse, Replaces Miss Faye Miller. If you take time to subtract, you'll find that Miss Coy has been with Woodward for umpteen years. In the .1945 Saga Tattler we made the discovery that a Woodward student, Bessie Papps, wrote a song which she sent to General Dwight Eisenhower. General Eisenhower sent Miss Papps a letter thanking her for sending in her song. THE WOODWARD TATTLER Aboir, Motheny Entered In Best Teacher Ot The Year Contest Two teachers in Woodward have been honored in the past two weeks by receiv- ing certificates that enter their The Best Teacher of the Year Contest which is sponsored by the Quiz gram.

INTRODUCING , - 3 J oan Mattes A lovely lass with a radiant persona lity is none other than Joanne Mattes, co-chairman of the Peri Formal. Beau- tiful brown hair and blue eyes top her 5'6 , 115 lb. frame. Her main heart in- terest is Henry Roth, who will escort her to the formal. By the way, she loves to dance. , Toledo University is her main object after graduation, where she plans to take Business Administration. When questioned about the outcome of the dance she replied, I am confi- dent that the Peri Formal will be a successful affair for the committees have worked hard to make it so. She has a nickname fTom and Dick gave it to herb which she will not dis- close. Anyone wishing to know her better, may get an introduction to her through her friends, Pat Stickroth or Ursla Cutsinger. After you secure the introduction, you can call her at Po.70 69 or even go to see her at 1004 Brick- er St. Mira Slichcinski Acting as the junior co-chairman of tonightfs annual Peri Formal is Mira Slichcinski, who is an active participa- tor of many activities here at Wood- ward. A privileged character around school, she goes steady with Don Pretty-Boy Reaumes. One of her favorite diversions is to go riding in Joan Kosmatka's car. Mira likes the things all we teen-agers seem to have a liking for, namely: ten- nis, swimming, barbecued hamburgs, Mr. Virgil Sloan as a teacher, going to the canteeng and confidentially she likes to play baseball with Evelyn lwin- ski. Another love of her life is Jim Chubner's dog Tiny, who I hear is just crazy about her. Looking ahead, Mira hopes for the position of managing ed- itor for the Tattler Staff next year. Being a member ofthe F. T. A. Mira plans to continue her education at Bowling Green State University where she will train for the teaching profes- sion. At the present she is looking for- ward to her senior year. LaRue Spoke At Club During a meeting of the Lagrange School Motherfs Club, principal Charles C. LaRue spoke. Mr. LaRue based his speech on a quotation of Robert Brown- ing's: 'Tm a part of all I've ever met.

Editor Invited to Luncheon Editor, Phyllis Sosnowicz, was invit- ed toa luncheon to be held in the English room of the Commodore Perry Hotel on May 8, where prizes will be given to the winners of the Letters for Democracy contest. Phyllis was first in the Senior devi- sion and will receive a radio. Allen Saunders, chairmang Felix Gentile, treasurer, and the honorable Micheal B. DiSalle, are on the committee that sponsored this contest. In the 1936 Tattler we find that the Polish Literary Society was a newly organized club. 111 ,ju pg: Clyde Meek, former athletic director and now dean of boys, is really deserv- ing of undue praise for his fine idea. Yes, Soft Hearted Clyde is the orig- inator ofthe activity tickets for mov- ies, programs, and athletic contest way back in 1934. PAT'S PATTER Tonight's the big night! Yes, at Trilby Log Cabin the Peri Formal is sure to be a success. Among the Eouples gliding across the floor 'will ez Nancy Seibold-John Francis.

Former Teacher Expires Henry Gerber, who tought in Wood- ward's commercial department prior to his retirement ten years ago, died last week.

Hall Representative To all schools participating in Junior Town Meetings' an Annual Rotary luncheon is to be given Monday, May 17, at 12 noon, in the Commodore Parry Hotel Ballroom. The topic to be discus- sed is, How can we make Toledo a more progrssive city? Each school in the Toledo area is ask- ed to choose its own representative. Mrs. Dorothy Matheny, advisor of the speech classes, has selected Philip Hall to represent Woodward. Four main speakers will be chosen to give a two and a half minute speech, while the remaining students serve on the panel. Philip was chosen to participate be- cause of his active work in they speech classes. , 1 .mmwmr 1- L I THE WOOD WARD TATTLER Experience Is The Best Teacher SWAY back in 1863 when Lincoln made his speec h freeing the slaves, Mrs. Marie Ersig in 1948 made her speech freeing the slaves namely the sophomores in the beginners journalism class, for one week. This was made in accordance with the annual Sophomore Tattler which you are now raed- ing. The sophomores took over the T. O. lock, stock, and barrel. Amid the jeering and leering of the sen- iors and juniors, we went to work thinking we knew it all. The seniors and juniors called us babies and said we were too stupid to put out the paper by ourselves. We boasted that We could put out just as good a paper as they could and didn't need their help in doing it. But, alas,we were wrong. We found out with hurt prides, that writing headlines expert- ly, planning pages, and other details such as typing, etc., were not learned in one year. With a hurt look, one of us would go up and say Soz, will you help me with this headline? or go up and say Where do you think Committee Corner ought to go? or countless other things. Then there are the two seniors that typed up the copy. These and countless other things were done by these sen- iors for us, the sophomores, who published the soph- omore Tattler. We learned the hard way that no matter how good a beginner is Experience is the best teacher. So now, on behalf of myself, the staff, and reporters, for this sophomore issue, I'd like to say, thanks. Though we may talk cocky, we appre- ciate the help you've given. Thanks especially to Soz', the headliner, Pat the typest, who were al- ways on hand, and all the rest who helped type and passed on tips for success. Now last but not least to our advisor, Mrs. Ersig, who has given us a chance to show our talents and helped us in every possible way. THE EDITOR Course's Discussed, ChooseWisely RINCIPAL Charles C. LaRue spoke to juniors on Monday of this week, sophomores on Tues- day, and freshmen on Thursday. These very worthwhile discussions were held over the P. A. system for the purpose of deciding which subjects are best for the students to take. The different classes were given a list of the subjects which may be taken. Mr. LaRue stressed the fact that students should take subjects which will benefit them most after graduation from high school. Choice cards will be made out by the students on Thursday, June 3. This will give the student ample time to take the lists home to discuss them with their parents. Easiest subjects or the subjects with the so call- ed easy teachers are not the ones to choose, for the harder something is, the more you get out of it. Thanks, For A Job Well Done ONIGHT, the sophomore class will present its annual dance. This social affair has been plan- ned for a long time and is the most important activity undertaken by the sophomore class as a whole. Much of the success of the dance is dependent on the work already done by the members of the dance committee. They have given mach time and effort toward making this dance one that will not easily be forgotten. They should be rewarded for their labor. Everyone can show his appreciation by attending the Daisy Dip and making sure that it is a finan- cial as well as a social success. A grand time is in store for you, don't miss it! Nosey Hi everybody! Here we are a g a i n with another interesting and informative question and answers. Since this is Annual Sopomore Weeknfplugl no freshman, junior, senior will forced to give their views or opinions. The following sophs have been asked to give their opinion on this question. .... If you could be president of the sophmore class now, what would you do to make this year an out- standing one? Lillie Czebatul -- H a v e more meetings so that we could discuss more plans and activities. Adeb Sadd -- 'Td think of more ways to earn mo- ney for the sophmore class.

Bound, Fifteen Tlf3.CliHleIl x-Tv-AYYYWTMC-,bmi---I AA--V -1 W To Compete At B.G. Some of the finest trackmen in Ohio are expected to turn out for the Bowling Green district tournament to be run today, starting at 3:00. Woodward's representatives, fifteen strong, took leave at approximately 1:00 in order to prepare for the tough competition. Preliminaries are to be run off today with the finals scheduled for tomorrow in all but the shot put, discus throw, and broad jump events. Buchholz, Tiller Relied On Coach Welever will probably rely on Dick Buchholz and Dick Tiller for the bulk of the Bruin points since these two have been the only consistent winners on his squad. Buchholz gave an in- dication of what to expect to- morrow when he placed fifth in the Miami Relays with a mark of 4:41 for the mile run, shav- ing almost nine seconds off of his previous best time of 4:49.7. Tiller also is expected to make a good bid for points due to his tie for fourth place in the pole vault at Miami. Tiller vaulted 11 feet, knocking six inches off of his prior record of 10 ft. 6 in. Other potential point-getters are Chuck Samson, a good hurdlerg Steve Kania, dash mang Jack DeBord, hurd- lerg Vince Gallo, relay man, Jim Jack Smith, jumper, Don Eble, relaysg Waller, broad jumper, pole vaulter and high Silka, relay man, Ken Ed Houghtaling, relays, Cal Harding, dashesg John dash mang Jack Kline, Easterwood, half-miler and relay man, and Bob Rutkowski, shot putter. A Woodward also has a track meet to make up with Libbey's first-place Cowboys next Tuesday, due to the ',fact that quite a few meets have Hveen cancelled this year because of tkhe inclement weather. X . . . Aubry, Whitney, Riechlm ' To Play In District Meet Although the results have not een announced yet, Bob Aubry aknd Lehr Whitney are playing dioubles on the Bowling Green tennis court today in the North- lwest district meet in which ten Schools have entered contest- nts. Morris Rie c hlin has as stepped out of his usual role its a partner in tennis to com- pete against the best singles in this event. The contest started this morning at 9 a.m. sharp for the drawing of competitors. Seeing that the field of competition is not too wide, the con- test should not last more than 6 hours. Coach George Rohrer was unable Kto attend the district meet with his three contestants. VARSITY LAGERS EAI' AT WEIS HOUSEHOLD Coach Weis, as is his annual custom, held a get-together for the varsity basketballers, managers, Ted Szelagowski and Arnold Brown at his home in Elmore, Ohio, last Thursday. Arriving at about 6:30 the boys sat around talking, awaiting the serving of the meal. In this time Ted Rokicki made use of his snatching ability by snagging tid bits such as olives, celery, radishes, etc., without being caught. i Smith Winner At Cards Finally the meal was served and Put Put Houghtaling lived up to his name by put-putting his way through some four different servings of chicken. Eating his share of chicken, potatoes, peas, George Fenady really relished the greens dish. The reason he doesn't catch scurvy he claims is he eats so much green vegetables. l After the main meal came the desert of ice cream and cherry pie. While 'everyone was loosening their belts afterwards, Butch Miller sat in the kitchen gouging out the last of the ice cream. The boys then sat down and played some cards which at the end found Jack Smith well-heeled. Saygers Lends Assist To Mrs. Weis Q Afterwards they all went across the street to do a little bowl- ing, thanks to Mr. Weis and Mr. Brown. The feature game was between Jim Chubner and Bob Rutkowski with Norm Crawford keeping score. This was for a prize which Bob won. Incident- ally, Norm .was keeping score for the first time. . Returning to Mr. Weis' home the boys prepared to leave. Mrs. Weis thanked Dave Saygers for wiping the dishes and Jack Smith thanked Henry Wieczorek for playing cards with him. On the way back the boys in Jack Smith's car persuaded him to stop at a roadside place so as to play the . . . excuse me get a sandwich. On their way out it seemed they had eaten heartily for Bob Aubry, Ray Varner, Mike Gusses, and Jack Smith came out with a lot less money than they had gone in with, Finally the boys arrived home and all heartily agreed that it was worth remembering for the seniors who are to graduate to look back on and to the Juniors VIKLSLQQZB Sl-IVKTS Anyone wishing some pointers on gardening should consult Mrs. Eliza- beth Ollendorf.

PLACE AT MIAMI Dick Tiller and Richard Buch- holz received a tie for fourth and fifth place respectively in the pole vault and mile, in the Miami relays held last Friday and Saturday in Miami. Tiller vaulted 6 inches higher than he had ever previously done with 11 feet, while his constituent Buchholz ran the fastest mile in his life, but only took a fifth. His timing was 424125. Tiller fouled out in the broadjump while Buchholz jumped 19 feet, 4 inches to take a seventh, which wasn't good enough to place. Only one ribbon is given for a place and seeing that three boys tied for fourth in the pole vault they flipped a coin to see who gained possession. Lucky Tiller won. 33 Schools Entered In Meet There were 33 schools from Ohio and Kentucky entered in the meet. Coach Welever said it was an honor even to take a place in this event. Both boys proved they were the best entries from Toledo in their winning events as no one from this city placed higher than they. The two boys made the trip with Coach Welever, Clyde VanTassel and his son, Hal. BRUINS BOW AT FREMONT, 62-56 With Bob Nighswander ram- paging for 15 points with firsts in the 120 yard high hurdles,220 yard low hurdles, and the broad Jump, Fremont Ross' Little Giants nosed out Coach Watson Welever's Bear thinclads, 62-56, last Wednesday at Fremont. Woodward put upua battle all the way but' the Little Giants were determined to win and they finally gained the victory when some of the Bear favorites failed to come up to expactations. Kania, Buchholz Big Guns Dich Buchholz, Dick Tiller, Steve Kania, and Kan Eble stood out for the Bruin cause with Kania and Buchholz the big guns. Buchholz annexed the mile run, placed second in the broad jump, and ran on the mil relay team while Tiller took first in the pole vault, third in the broad jump, and a second in discus throw competition. Kania was the only Bear to triumph in two events as he raced to victory in the 100 yard and 220 yard dashes despite a bad case of skin splints. Eble surprised as he romped to victory in the quarter mile and anchored the winning mile relay squrd. Rutkowski Wins Shot Put Kania was top scorer with 10 points while Buchholz grabbed 9K tallies and Tiller scored 85. Eble managed GM counters to finish fourth in the Bruin scoring. Bob Rutkowski came up with a win in the shot put on a toss of 43' for a totalof five points. 'I I.. i xx 1 v , t -l fl- - -IH l .

Besides thsi position he has time for Student Council work fun at the Boy's Club, and delivering telegrams. During his soph year he's learning all about biology, world history English, and public discussion. He claims he is that way about Phyllis Kellerhaur from DeVilblss. Dick dosen't like other girls, says they bother him -hmmm I wonder? Besides Phyllis his main inter- ests are sports and slumgulian. Having confidence in the Daisy Dip he says, If all the sophomores co-operate it will go over big.
