In the late twenties and early thirties, sports and music were becomming an intigral and important part of education in the Ohio schools. Vaughnsville had become a center of baseball, and boys' and girls' basketball had become crowd pleasers for the community. The girls played the exact same game as the boys and with the use of the same sized ball. Girls' games usually preceded the boys' games on the same night and in the same town. The entire Sugar Creek township community was filled with musicians, making music an intigral part of every service and program. School and community compeitions began producing more and more excellence in musical, athletic, and academic performances, and encouraged the determination and work ethics to strive for continuing betterment. The small community size, necessitated and encouraged the valued involvement of everyone; thus bringing to life talents that may have been hidden in a more populous locale.
