THE TATLER Published by the SENIOR CLASS of Alton High School Alton, Illinois 1933Foreword We seniors take this opportunity to express our appreciation to those who have helped make our high school days successful and happy. To those who are yet to attend high school we sincerely hope that you will receive as much benefit and as great pleasure in your high school days as we have in our four years that end this June.Dedication We, the members of the Tatler Staff, dedicate the 1933 Annual to Luther L. Myers, Sponsor. Mr. Myers, teacher in Sociology and English has been sponsor of the Tatler for the past six years. Nothing we can say could fully express our appreciation of his faithful and loyal cooperation. He has long been a true supporter and admirer of all activities, including athletics and arts, presented in the school. Mr. Myers has been found to be a friend to many students who have had perplexing problems to solve. He has been interested in each and every one and his advice has been acted upon to great advantage on many occasions. The staff invites the student body to join in wishing him a prosperous and happy future.Contents Introduction Administration Classes Athletics Organizations Advertisers and FeaturesAlton Senior High School 1928-1933ADMINISTRATIONW.

He had little to work with, no school spirit, no interest in athletics, and but little material. Since then he has built up and developed one of the best football and basketball teams in the conference. Along with this there is also a growing interest in track, which has not been felt for a period of years. As a supplement to Jackson's success in coaching, he has taught good sportsmanship and character along with athletics. This he has made his business, and it has resulted in giving Alton High School that reputation all over Southern Illinois. This has been Jackson’s most successful year from all standpoints, placing second in both football and basketball. Prospects for next year teams are just as good in football and our hopes are strong for basketball. Assistant Coach James F. Stage It was through the efforts of Mr. Stage that the Redbird eleven possessed one of the strongest lines in the conference. He put in hour after hour of hard labor training the boys for their positions. His efforts have been highly appreciated in that two of his linemen, Kodros and Cravens, were selected for places on the all-conference eleven last fall. 49Top Row: E. Brunnworth, M. Cheers, K.

This was Sonny's third and last year. He was small but played the game like a giant. The team would not have been the peppy eleven that held a high place in the conference had it not been for Sonny. CENTRAL Opening the season in perfect form, the team uncorked a bag of tricks, which re-suited in a victory over the strong Central High eleven from St. Louis.—20-6. MADISON It was at our pleasure and their regret that the team started off the conference race with a victory over Madison.—27-0. COLLINSVILLE l' With conference title hopes in mind, we pushed the ball three times into the shadow of Col's goal but lacked the punch to push it over. We were forced to be satisfied with a tie.-—OO. EDWARDSVILLE To show that they were not to be put down by a tie, the Red Birds made Edwards-ville dance to the tune of defeat.—19-0. WOOD RIVER The boys fought hard. Blame was laid on the referee, but no referee can defeat Alton 19-6. It was Wood River's day. GRANITE Our hearts were torn out in the last eighteen seconds when Granite scored on a pass.—6-0. We find that had we held them to a tie we would have won the conference championship. BELLEVILLE The team took spunk and ambition to Belleville, after fighting on a hard clay field, brought back the spoils—7-0. EAST ST. LOUIS The Red and Gray again waved supreme over the gridiron, this time over a field covered with snow. All this was at the expense of our old rival. East Side, by a score of 6-0. WESTERN With a milder Turkey Day than usual, the Birds showed complete football sense, by defeating Western, our oldest rival, by a score of 13-0. Yea! A crowning event for a successful season! ! ! ! ! Last season proved without a doubt to be the most successful in many years. The boys had the fight and endurance of a championship eleven, but that pass in the last part of the Granite Game robbed us of a well-earned championship. 51Football Squad First Row: I. Crouch, R.

Basketball 1932-33 CAPTAIN CAMPBELL Our Basketball team was captained by Enos "Tote” Campbell. Enos has earned four letters in Basketball, two in football and four in tennis. He trains hard and plays the game fair and under his leadership we climbed to second place in the final conference standing. We need more athletes like Enos. The Basketball season opened with much promise. Coach Jackson had five letter men at the start of the season, around which to build his conference entry. The first game ended in disaster at the hands of Benton, the down state team that entered the state semi-finals this spring. The conference opened with a defeat by Belleville, but the Birds then retaliated to defeat Madison, and proceeded to take Wood River and Granite in the same manner. This was the first time an Alton team had won over Granite in either Football or Basketball since Coach Jackson has been here. This put pep into the boys and they advanced another notch by defeating Collinsville. Bubbling over with pep, but lacking the eye for the basket, we were defeated at E. St. Louis. The next week the team finished the first half of the schedule by downing Edwardsville after giving them a 15-0 lead. 53At the half of the conference schedule we were well up in the standing. In that short recess, we hurdled Bunker Hill, with a decisive score. The second half started with a victory over Madison, and we continued to win over Belleville, Wood River, and Granite. Conference title hopes i ran high, when we played Collinsville. With a team that wouldn't shoot, it is needless to give the result. We were defeated. In order to stay at the top we must down East Side. It was a hard fought contest, but they held the upper hand and by defeating us held a tie for conference honors with Collinsville. The last game, a i rough and tumble contest with Edwardsville, was won 13-12. Fouls predominated. Our district tournament hopes were blasted by Collinsville in our first game, so the suits were put in the moth balls.

This big four was present at all home football games and some of them were with the fans on the road. They always did their best to instill in the players and spectators that spirit and pep so necessary to ultimate victory. In basketball, Peek and Edsall were always present to lead the cheering. Peek took the west side of the gym and Edsall the east. Many a yell was made better in an effort to do better than the last yell from the opposite side of the floor. This season is the last in school for Gary and Peek. “A-A'A-L'T T-T-T-O-N A-L-T-O-N Alton! Alton! Yea!” Managers Nothing that we could write here would speak for the many hours of hard work by our managers, Howard Karns and his assistant, Henry Barnard. They took the blame when things didn't go just right and if no other reason could be given they were blamed for the team losing a game. It is said to be the hardest position on our squads. 55First Row: Miss McCausland, Jane Watkins, Shirley Stiles, Nell Gere. Second Roto.

Track has become a very interesting sport in our school. The following won letters for placing first, second or third in various meets in which our school participated. Harris—Javelin Schuessler—100 and 220 yard dash Mundell—mile Crouch—Broad-jump At Springfield, Alton placed first in Javelin, fourth place in J £ mile, second and third in 100 and 220 yard dash. In conference competition Alton placed, third in braid-jump, third in shot put, first in javelin. 57Sports Summary All athletics of Alton High School in the season just finished were on a higher standing in the conference than they have been for the past six years. The Red Birds are now recognized as a strong competitor in all sports except track, which will develop in a short time. FOOTBALL In football Alton finished with undisputed second place in the conference, having four victories, two defeats, and one tie. The strong scoring machine that the birds possessed is shown by the fact that we were held scoreless in only one game. On the other hand, the defense was just as effective by keeping the goal uncrossed in all but three games. The non-conference game at the first of the season was won from Central, and the other—the greatest achievement of the season—was that on Turkey Day, when Western was downed 13-0! YEA! ALTON! Coach Jackson awarded 19 letters at the close of the season. Three of these men, Gus Kodros, Cravens, and Schuessler were chosen on the all-conference team. BASKETBALL Basketball was on a high level this year, the team holding second place in the conference standing. E. St. Louis and Collinsville were tied for first. The score book shows eleven victories, and six defeats. This has been a most encouraging season, being the best since Coach Jackson has been here. At the close of the season, ten men were awarded letters for their work on the team. TRACK Track, the weak sister in Alton High athletics, has shown some remarkable achievements this spring. The thirty-five men that reported were hard workers, and did all they could to revive the sport in our school. Only four of these, however, received letters for their efforts. Although the team did not win a meet, the out-look for the future is very bright. Seniors are lost by graduation and it is the duty of each Freshman and Sophomore to work hard to take the places left by these men. Let’s see Alton shine in track in the future. TENNIS As a whole, Tennis has not been quite so encouraging this season as before. The boys’ singles, played by Enos Campbell, were the most successful, losing only one match, to Madison. Enos won the Southwestern Illinois Championship tournament at Collinsville. The doubles team was not as successful as had been expected. The girls showed every effort, but lacked the necessary punch to win a high place in the conference. 58ORGANIZATIONSJoe Voss, Business Manager, Dorothy Dodge, Editor an Chief, Luther L.
