As we look back over the three years already past and the fourth one nearly gone, we realize how much our high school days have meant to us and how badly we shall miss them in the future. Many thanks should be given to Miss Miles and Miss Bowers for their time, patience, and ideas which they devoted so willingly to the ASTRUM in an effort to make this book ll pictorial meni- orandum. And you remember our candid cameraman, Fred Ziegler, who is now in the Navy. Take a look at that picture of the school house across the page. Pretty spiffy, isn't it? Well, you can thank Fred for that picture as well as several other grand pictures throughout this hook. It has been our desire in this twenty-fifth volume of the ASTRUM to illustrate the good times we had, the knowledge we acquired, and the school spirit we attained. Sometimes when there wasn't anything else to do, we even studied for a change. If this annual will help you to recall these things, we will have accomplished our purpose.

Phyll 'tl C u ' n S T U D E N T Since the early nineteen twenties, Aledo Community High School students have successfully edited a school paper. In the beginning the paper was called THE A and was published about three times a year by volunteer students. Later a journalism class was organized by Miss Hazel Vanatta. When the paper was changed to a monthly in 1934, the name was changed to THE STUDENT. In the school year 1942-1943, the journalism course was combined with the senior English course, and the editing of the school paper was taken over by the members of the English class. x This year the editors-in-chief of the paper are Shirley Balmer and Marje Durning. Other staff members are: Phyllis McCaw, Anita Johnson, Helena May, Martha Spence, Marilyn Carlstrom, Iris Lang, Florence Barnhouse, and Patsy Greeves. During the first semester CXN Betty Marie Hutchins and John Emrick also acted as reporters. f' Agric 'F ,Q ulr 'O , 0,6543 o Overalls, Gingham On Prunliilg G0 Qi 4561 OYQQIK9 Go To Barn Dance qwee S -3 'Q Q lg 09.456668 e fakes' Qxeiv A 'Z' Eve S 41.86 cpl fig:-Ealgients, Sent To New eww Ga ,O gf 2 Navy Iinlbrs P 059 ,3 tgxeiocee s In Service Conte OO-266 32 Q . . ,Q 'O 0 1' ,. 5 fesfass 6 9' 961,090 Phyllis Macaw Heads def 556. fir 1 Xe Astrum Staff des ynsmlv was 0-Jgbog .

Synopsis For three days six persons have been trapped in a family air-raid shelter, a building having erumhled over the entranee. lfaeing what seems inevitable death, these six persons react differently. Esther Hale tShirley Balmerj, a woman whose sueeessful dress shop has lmeen homlmed out of existenee, is dominated hy fear and hatred. Her sister, Mary tlleen Neshittl, widowed hy the war and now earing for her siek son, Ilanny tl"red Ilrakeb, maintains her poise and eourage. The others, Peggy tliaura Blaze-rl, Mary's daughterg Alec tliill 'l'aylor7, l'eggy's fianee and a lieutenant in the Royal Air Foreeg and Stephen Hale tllonald Brownj, the father of Esther and Mary. are swayed he- tween these two. To drive away the gloom the family try to play games. They begin hy recalling their happiest memories. Under lCsther's domination. however, this is soon disearded for an alphabetical game in which each person tells why he hates the dictator, The game of hate mounts toward a elimax until l7anny's nerves give way. Mary, the mother. now takes command in order to save her son and to prevent the whole group from sueemnlwing to fear. Out of the mood of hate she leads them in singing a Christmas carol and in repeating, in verse-choir fashion, some of the great promises of the Bible, until faith and hope are restored, ami spiritual dignity reasserted. "Eternal Life" won first at the Sectional Con- test at East Moline on March 255 and then was entered in the State Contest held April I4 and 15 at Urbana.

Aledo, Illinois June 21, 1954 Dear Marje: Well, I received your letter the other day and am glad to hear you still like California as much as ever. We often see your name in the pa- pers. So you want to know what happened to your old classmates? Well, I'll tell you all I know. Of course, you know Junior and I got married as soon as I graduated. In fact, we were married exactly ten years ago day before yesterday. Last night we went to the show. Yes, the Opera House. By the way, Betty Berg is owner of the Opera House now. Winifred Burns sold us our tickets, and we were ushered in by the chief ushers, Lyle Fassett and his wife, the former Rowena Scranton. They've been married a year now and are still as much the lovebirds as ever. We sat up in the balcony, as is still our custom, and sat right behind Mr. and Mrs. Howard Fender. You remember, she was Rachel Smith. They brought all their children, and, honestly, they took all one row. We have a big rolling pin factory here in Aledo now. Dub 8z Dub, Inc., owned by Fred Drake and Paul E. Robinson. Fred and "Red" live to- gether with their families and wives, Barbara and Nancy, down on South College Avenue in a big white asbestos house. They really throw some parties, too. We went to one last Saturday night. Bill Taylor was there with one of his numerous blondes. As you no doubt know, Bill is running for governor-on the Republican ticket, of course. Patsy Greeves, the fa- mous Chicago artist, was down for the week-end, and came to the party escorted by that man about town, Ralph Spence. Spence is certainly a playboy these days. There isn't an eligible girl in town that he hasn't been out with. We never see much of Marilyn Carlstrom any more. She's always go- ing to Paris or London or some place on a trip. She's really a woman of the world with all that money. Shirley Bistline is her secretary and al- ways accompanies her. Do you remember Eleanor Schmidt? She and Bob were married as soon as she graduated, and now they have a prosperous farming business of their own. Eleanor usually has Barbara Haney over for the week-end, and they sit around and giggle just as they always did. Barbara is in the fish bait business. Could you ever imagine her picking up a fishworm??? Well, she sells them by the bucketsful now. I read in the paper the other day about Claudia Hampton coming to see you while she was on her personal appearance tour on the West Coast. She's certainly made a name for herself as a magician, hasn't she? Did you know that Dave Jackson had married a rich Russian countess and is living on an alligator farm down in South America? Well, he is, and his old buddy, Bob Miller, was so broken up about it that he lost eighty pounds. Dwight Welch is employed as a shoemaker down in Sea- ton by the Hudson and McCreight Shoe Company. Dwight has been try- ing to court Katie Kisler, who is bookkeeper for the company, but Katie will have nothing to do with him. The phone just rang and it was your old girl friend, Alyce Ricketts. She's Alyce Jackson now and the proud mother of two boys. I told her I was writing to you, and she said to give you the best of her love. PROPHECY... Ruth Elliott, the famous blues singer, was up in the cities at the Or- pheum a while back with Lee Damp and his orchestra. We all went up to see them. They were very good. Between songs, Dorothy Denning and her husband, John Shelley, did a tumbling act. Wayne Stead was master of ceremonies. Still the same old "Grinny". He had the audience in stitch- es. He also did a tap routine by popular request. Last night I saw Eileen McEwen and guess what she told me!! Phyl- lis McCaw eloped night before last with an Italian ballet dancer. She told Eileen that he just swept her off her feet. My! Say, we have a new doctor in town, and it's none other than Ileen Nesbitt. She is known to have a great secret cure for biting of the fingernails. Her first patient was Alice Stead. Leave it to Alice. Harold Board is driving in the midget auto races and has won sev- eral championships. Florence Barnhouse owns a big estate down by Keiths- burg, and Marge Griffin and her husband are caretakers. Florence says they really do a nice job. Marge keeps the hedge trimmed, and Wayne mows the yard. The other day I was shopping down town and ran into Jerry Swank of the Swank Motor Sales. We stopped to chat a while, and whom should we see coming down the street but Robert Cooke McBride. Mr. McBride is a big man these days with his chain of theaters. Aledo is proud of him. You'd never guess who's teaching English classes up at the high school! Richard Monts! And Anita Johnson is teaching solid geometry. Betty Snell is their office girl. I read in the Peoria paper that Georgia Staley is going places with her own roller-skating rink. She's quite a skater. I also read about Martha Spence opening up a grocery business there. I got a letter from Helena Whitman the other day. She used to be Helena May. She and her husband are missionaries down in Africa. Clif- ford Hadley is a traveling salesman and is really making the money. Our mailman is Iris Lang, and she takes her work very seriously. Dave Downey, now known as "Slippery Dave", is owner of quite a number of apartment houses in Chicago, and he's known to be quite tough about collecting his rent. One of his gunmen is "Dead-eye" John Emrick. - Well, Marje, I really must close. I'm having Ladies' Aid this after- noon. and I must get ready for it, Don Brown is going to speak on his tour of Asia. You know he's a great opera singer, don't you? His accom- panist is Florence Bonynge. Why don't you come back and visit your old home town some time? We certainly would like to see you again, we've read so much about you in the papers. 'Bye now, all my love, Shirley Holman. P.S.-I just saw Betty Hutchins through my new television set while she was singing over an Egyptian radio station from Cairo. Rumors are that Betty plans to marry the junior assistant director of the Egyptian Radio Corporation as soon as she has made her name known throughout all Africa and the rest of the world.
