This is our TirsT Holy Year. This is our iniTial annual. BoTh of These
"TirsTs" have a proTound significance Tor us, The sTudenTs of Alleman.
One is a record of The pasTg The oTher, a promise of The TuTure.
The Two combined reTlecT our CaTholic heriTage which we have
received: our CaTholic obligaTions To which we musT give ourselves.
WiTh our idealism undimmed, we are sTriving To make This yearbook
The besTg This Holy Year, The holiesT.
The Holy Year will pass wiTh our youTh, buT The eTTecTs oT iT will
be wiTh us ThroughouT our lives. TwenTy-Tive years Trom now, in The
year l975, There will be, if TradiTion proves True, anoTher Holy Year.
Our dreams and hopes oT Today will have been realized Then, and
we will look back wiTh nosTalgic remembrance upon our TirsT Holy
Year-The year when our Alleman days became acTualiTies, when
we prayed Tor The peace +ha+ The world cannoT give, when we Turned
our eyes Toward The Holy CiTy and uniTed wiTh Pope Pius XII in
pledging our TideliTy To his five maior inTenTions Tor The Holy Year.

lndusTrial arTs is one of The pracTical arTs wiTh
characTer and purpose. ln The indusTrial-arTs

ience which will inTeresT him in indusTrial life and
enable him To do eTlecTively The Things ThaT mosT
boys and men are called upon To do regardless
oT vocaTion.
During The course oT The hisTory oT indusTrial
arTs, The name and Teaching obiecTives have
changed considerably. ln The beginning iT was
called craTTs, and laTer The name manual arTs
was adopTed due To The TacT ThaT The craTT work
was done by hand.
As The years progressed and The nineTeenTh
cenTury advanced, The name manual arTs was re-
placed by manual Training. The principal purpose
oT manual Training was To enable boys To go To
The various shops and develop skill by making
ioinTs. ln ThaT ouTmoded Training, boys made
complicaTed ioinTs which were never used.
WiTh The TwenTieTh cenTury, The name inclus-
Trial arTs gained a TooThold. lT was ThoughT-
as iT sTill is-ThaT indusTrial arTs should be a
course in The pracTical arTs where knowledge,
skills and apTiTudes help inTegraTed individuals
live more usefully and happily in home, shop,
and socieTy.
AT Alleman l-ligh, The indusTrial arTs program
consisTs oT Two courses: mechanical drawing and
woodworking. lT is TelT ThaT These are Two basic
and mosT imporTanT courses in The Tield. Man in in-
dusTry needed a meThod oT collecTing his ideas
and revising Them. The Task was accomplished by
mechanical drawing. ATTer an idea, plan, or
blueprinT is adopTed, The immediaTe sTep is The
consTrucTion oT The obiecT.
All in all, indusTrial arTs means The science OT

Fourth Petition
In a world whose sense ot values seems to be so unbalanced,
Catholic students depend on the Holy Father in this Holy Year to
adjust the scales ot right and wrong, ot justice and prejudice.
Youth tinds the answer in the l-loly Father's "that everywhere, but
especially in Palestine, tranquility reign through a just solution ot
problems, so that diverse social classes, smothering hatreds and
putting aside disputes, may join together in justice and traternal
concord . . . that the impoverished may obtain wherewithal to live
decently trom their own labors, and when these tail, may receive
the necessities ot lite and suitable assistance trom the liberality and
charity ot those who are better ott."
The Fifth Petition ot our l-loly Father was tor peace. The otticial
holy year seal is the symbol ot peace.

During fhe pasf year of Alleman afhlefics, fhe
local sporfs enfhusiasfs came upon one of fhe big-
gesf and yef one of fhe mosf pleasanf surprises of
fhe year when fhe Pioneer's firsf foofball squad
furned in a season 'af amazing and wholly unex-
pecfed performances on fhe field of pigskin com-
pefifion. They posfed a respecfable 6-won and
2-losf record, and gained fhe hearfs of many fans
during fhe lasf confesf of fhe campaign when a
fough Sf. Ambrose academy eleven was forced fo
come from behind fo eke ouf a narrow 7-6 verdicf.
The work done by l-lead Coach Bob Maloney
wifh fhe boys could be seen fhroughouf fhe
season as fhey progressed from game fo game
wifh ever-increasing finesse.
Maloney, aided by fhe capable assisfance of
Line Coach Roc Carbone, changed a gang of
Alleman Team
unfried buf willing boys info a feam which was
forced fo fake a back seaf for no one.
The loyal followers of fhe Green and Whife
saw fheir feam progress from a narrow 7-6 de-
cision over a Rock Falls high ouffif in fhe season's
opener fo fhe moral vicfory gained af fhe hands
of fhe fough Ambrosians. The acfual progress
of fhe squad mighf be realized fo a higher de-
gree if one remembers fhaf a week affer fhe
Ambrose game, fhe same Ambrose feam defeaf-
ed a perennial powerhouse, Davenporf high, by
a fwo-fouchdown margin.
The imporfance of fhaf firsf win over Rock
Falls can hardly be oversfressed, however, since
fhe experience and fhe confidence gained by
such a green feam in fhe game lafer proved fo
be invaluable.

The I949-50 baskeTball season Tor Alleman
was noT as specTacular as The TooTball season.
In TacT, The Pioneers were able To posT only
an eighT-won, ThirTeen-losT record Tor The sea-
son. BuT There was one Thing oT which The
Pioneer dribblers could boasT, and ThaT was
The TacT ThaT They were able To Throw aT
leasT a scare inTo any one oT Their opponenTs.
The compleTe season could be divided inTo
Two eras. The TirsT era, ThaT period up To The
end oT The TirsT semesTer, could adeguaTely
be called The Mike-Corken era. The resT oT
The season could be called The Bill-Dye era.
In The Corken era, Mike scored 219 poinTs ouT
oT a Team ToTal oT 555, while in The Dye era,
Bill had I2I poinTs ouT oT a Team ToTal oT 270.
Corken appeared in I4 games, while Dye ap-
peared in 7, and TogeTher The Two Torwards
ToTaled 340 poinTs ouT oT a Team ToTal of 825.
Along abouT The Time when The TirsT semes-
Ter was coming To an end, Coach Bob Ma-
loney had a dream. In his dream he had Two
Torwards, Mike Corken and Bill Dye, working
TogeTher To bring home The bacon aTTer every

eligible Tor The TirsT semesTer, buT aTTer +ha+
Maloney could use his services indeTiniTeIy.
As IT Turned ouT, MaIoney's dream proved
To be iusT ThaT and noThing more, because
Mike Corken broke a bone in his IeTT elbow
in a game wiTh Corpus ChrisTi high. The nexT
game Dye became eligible and was Torced To
Take on The burden IeTT by Corken, who was
ouT OT acTion Tor The resT oT The season.
OT course, when Dye Took over, The oTher
members oT The Team were Tinally beginning
To show some consisTency, and The load car-
ried by Corken Tor I4 games was IighTened To
a cerTain degree. The TacT remains, however,
ThaT a sophomore who is able To Take over a
ball club, musT have Tremendous possibiIiTies.
The Team as a whole goT oTT To a slow sTarT,
and aIThough The boys showed pIenTy oT

never seemed To maTeriaIize.

Americans are born with a wealth that money
can't buy. No matter whether we are reared in
mansions or log cabins, we inherit man's great-
est treasure-the silver spoon of freedom!
Freedom is everywhere in America. Poor
youngsters can and do become rich and famous
men. Folks speak the truth as they see it because
opinion is molded by the public rather than by
politicians. Freedom of worship and freedom
from fear are accepted as a matter of course in a
country bossed by the people.
Unfortunately, freedom isn't free. General
Washington and his men made the down-pay-
ment at Valley Forge and Yorktown. For almost
two hundred years, brave men have met the
installments with sweat and blood. But keeping

our land free is no task for heroes a1one-"Free-
dom is everybody's job!"
You strengthen America and make it more
productive by mastering your job and giving a
few extra licks to your daily tasks. You show
your faith in the American way when you take
time to vote in local as well as national elections.
You make democracy work when you respect
your neighborls right not only to disagree with
you, but to have his say.
Don't be content with flying the colors on
Flag Day and parading on the Fourth of July-
help to make our democracy a living, working
reality 365 days of the year. We have inherited
priceless freedomg as long as we keep it, the
poorest of us is rich!
