We, the Class of l957, dedicate this
Torch to the FACULTY. We feel that our
teachers, who have devoted so much cf their
time to us, deserve an expression of our
thanks.
The entire FACULTY has helped us solve
the hardest problems. They have never been
selfish in giving us guidance. Much of
their spare time is spent in helping us.
They have shown us the love and devotion of
counselors and friends. we sincerely feel
that the advice and wisdom of our teachers
will be a great influence in cur lives.
We should like to share the final goal
of our school days with our FHCULTY. This
achievement was made ossible b their
P Y
help. This book is an acknowledgment of
our deepest gratitude.

SUPERINTENDENT
Elbert Hubbard once said nBees accomplish nothing
save as they work togetherg neither do menu.
Since coming here almost two years ago, I have ob-
served how everyone has adjusted and worked toward the ac-
complishing of some desired goals.
Many changes and opportunities have come about this
past year with our new building and altered facilities ,
which our annual no doubt will show. You have shown your
enthusiasm and appreciation in many ways.
You, as students, have come to school to acquire
knowledge. Your future will depend on how well you use it.
Your future will not be successful if you plow without
sowing.
You will have a wholesome attitude all your life if
you can keep this thought in mindg 'Everyone I meet is in
some way superior.n
Congratulations to our staff and sponsor!

Congratulations to the class of 1957 upon your grad-
uation and to the Torch Staff for your fine effort in pro-
ducing an excellent yearbook. Both accomplishments resulted
from hard work and conscientious study. I feel sure you
will look back with pride upon your high school years by
means of this publication.
The class of 1957 is the finest graduating class it
has been my privilege to work with. I feel confident that
this class will produce many happy and successful adult
citizens. The school will feel its loss in their absence,
but can also take pride in its accomplishments through this
very fine graduating class.

ARION MUSIC AWARD
Each year a graduating senior band member
is awarded the Arion National Foundation Award
for musical achievement. The students are
rated according to these qualifications:
The band members elect one senior and the
faculty elects one senior. Mr. Scott, the
band director, then has the final word in sel-
ecting the winner.
Inspiration to Others Scholastic Standing
Diligence Co-operation
Personal Habits Attendance
Ambition
This award consists of three things,
plaque which hangs in the band room.
.,, .,x,.i
DAR and SAR
The Sons of the American Revolution honor one boy from each of
the A8 states, selected from the senior classes of the senior high
schools, and the Daughters of the American Revolution honor one girl
from each high school in the same manner, as excelling in the follow-
ing qualities which make for good citizenship:
Dependability--Truthfulness-Honesty-Punctuality
Service--Cooperation-Helpfulness-Responsibility
Leadership--Personality-Self Control-Initiative
Patriotism--Unselfish Loyality to American Ideals
The aim of this project is to build youthful character and to
call attention to those qualities which are desirable in good citi-
zens. The contest is not an essay writing or a popularity contest.
Each member of the senior class votes for the boy and girl of his
choice, keeping the above qualifications in mind. The top three girls
and the top three boys are presented to the faculty, which selects one
boy and one girl to represent their school in the state contest.
The winners, one girl and one boy, from each state receive from
the National Society of the Daughters of the American Revolution and
the National Society of the Sons of the American Revolution, respect-
ively, a Government Bond of.S100.00 maturity value.
American Legion Award
The American Legion Award is given to one boy and one girl in the
senior class. The students elect these two senior winners, the facul-
ty does not have anything to do with this award. The award is based
on these qualities:
Character
Loyality
Scholarship
Leadership
Courage
This award was started by the American Legion in Illinois, but it
has now spread to all L8 states. The actual award consists of a Cer-
tificate and a medal which is awarded at the end of the year.

SE l0R CLASS HISTDRY
In the fall of 1953, the fifty-eight members of our
freshman class entered the Arcola High School. At our first
class meeting we elected Audrey Landreth, president, Billy
Perkins, vice-president, Joan Sanders, treasurer, and Brenda
Biggs, secretary. Mr. Soelzer and Miss Olson were our class
sponsors. At Homecoming time, we elected our class presi-
dent, Audrey Landreth, as the queen's attendant. Her escort
was Tim Monahan. Before the year ended our class had grown
to sixty members.
Fifty-eight silly sophmores crossed the threshold in
l95h. As class officers, we elected Larry Anderson, presi-
dent, Bill Perkins, vice-president, and Janet Smart, secre-
tary-treasurer. Our class advisors were Mr. Dunn and Mrs.
Shields. At Homecoming we elected Brenda Biggs as our
queen's attendant. She chose Bill Perkins as her escort.
Although we did not win a prize with our float, WWe'll Pin
Them Down,W we all had fun. As our sophmore year drew to a
close, everyone was looking forward to becoming an upper-
classman.
We began the year of '55 with fifty-six members in the
class. Our officers were Dave Herrington, president, Dave
Upholf, vice-president, and Brenda Biggs, secretary-treas-
urer. Mr. Crist and Mrs. Willmann were our class advisors.
For queen's attendant at Homecoming we chose Peggy Phillips,
escorted by Tom Romine. Our class play WGirl Crazy' was a
huge success due to the fine directing of Miss Whitson. The
Junior-Senior Prom was held at the Kaskaskia Country Club.
It was a lot of work, but one of the most outstanding events
of our junior year.
Only forty-eight seniors managed to Sneak back to
classes in the fall of 1956. As our class officers we
elected Joe Gaylord, president, Jack Browning, vice-presi-
dent, Diane Myers, treasurer, and Brenda Biggs, secretary.
Our class sponsors were Mr. Dunn and Miss Jokisch. Peggy
Phillips was Homecoming Queen and Pat Cox was her senior
attendant. The girls' escorts were the two senior co-cap-
tains of the football team, Dave Herrington and Dave Upholf.
The play, NGuess Againn was lots of fun, but we couldn't
help looking forward to the juniors wonderful send off--the
Junior Senior Prom. The highlight of our high school car-
eer was the trip to Washington D. C. and--at last--our grad-
uation day. When we started our senior year, there were
forty-eight members, but only thirty-eight remained to grad-
uate. We had a big four years at A.T.H.S.--we'll never for-
get these wonderful memories.
QUEEN PEGGY
SENIUR CLASS POEM
How do they really rate with us,
These seniors as we know them?
We'll try to put our thoughts in verse
And--forgive us--call it a poem.
Stan Allen is one of the very best friends
A person ever had.
We wonder if some day he'll choose to pursue
The medical path of his dad.
Dave Upholf is quite a nice muscular chap,
A football captain he,
We know he's approaching the real farming whiz
He hopes one day to be.
Now Robbie Arrol's an old car fan
And the Riders' basketball star.
A doctor's life will be his choice:
Never doubt it, he'll really go
There lives in town an Irishman
Who's kingpin in our gymg
This Monahan's a jolly guy
Known widely as WBig Tim'.
A real cute gal's
Peggy Phillips,
far
Especially when leading our yells,
She'll make some man a good little wife,
Ring out, ring out, wedding bells.
A brown-eyed Biggs named Brenda,
With long and dark-brown hair,
Has pleasant smiles and manners
For all of us to share.
Audrey Landreth's
future's knowng
A wife she plans to be.
Her many capabilities
Aren't hard at all to see.
Marquitta Herrington--newspaper gal,
HSI' C0lum1'1, Scraps and Scratches ,
A lucky guy the man wi 1 be
That WSkeeterW fin'lly catches.
A job to do? Get
She's ready,
Our Marge is full

Chumbley--
willing, able.
of talent and
stable.
A Daily we'l1 subscribe to
Is Ethel, trim and neat,
A pal to Marge and Shirleyg
That trio's hard to beat.
Down by the old root-beer stand,
Working hard through the hot summer days,
Who's the nice friendly smile belong to?
Shirley Carlberg deserves our praise.
He loves to read, he loves to drive,
He learns by asking 'Why?W
Our Monte Stump's a real,quiz kid,
With him it's do or die.
She always wears a pretty smile,
It's warmth we really feel.
For lovely voice and High School Band,
Remember Ruth Ann Keal.
As football star, as hubby, friend,
Our Billy Perkins' topsg
We send to him our best regards
And luck--we send him lots!
So nice, so quiet, so polite,
The keeper of our money--
seniors know this Diane Myers
Is really quite a hgney,
We
A sweet young thing from the country
Is amiable Patsy Cox,
With a friendly smile and eyes that beguile,
And pretty auburn locks.
Our rootin', tootin' trumpet king
Is Gaylord--Joe's the name.
A high-stepping twirler that everyone likes
Is dark-haired Virginia Connor,
Who, on our school paper, the good Arco-Lite,
As editor shared the top honor.
In winning smile and posture straight
He puts his claim to fame.
This Ashley boy is good at art,
Though a 'lefty' Roy may be.
At summer camp his talent showed
For all his friends to see.
A genial guy who makes us laugh
And farming wants to try,
Works hard and long with tools and
He's Tom Cox--quite a guy!
A friendly gal and first-rate pal
Are found in Janet Smart.
Her quiet ways and manner sweet
Are really quite an art.
We have a WTruman'--famous, too,
And liked by everyone,
He shares his Ford with all of us,
This gen'rous Jerry Thompson.
A Shonkwiler senior named Myron
Has found him a pleasant young wife,
Now works hard and well to support herg
May each know a happy long life.
A smile to remember, exceptional poise,
IA beautiful, beautiful voice,
Ann Laymon, we feel, will be quite wise indeed
If music she makes her first choice.
things--
She's full of giggles, full of life,
In band she plays the drum,
And all who 'Woody' know will say
That Donna Rae is fun.
Janet Cox is going to collegeg
A teacher then she'll be.
We wish for her the very best,
A worthy goal has she.
A tall blond gal we all know well
Is slender Patty Harris.
She loves to dance with pal Joang
A really fun-filled pair, this.
To work while you learn and learn while you work
Is a plan that suits Dick Prout.
He finds a garage a good place to work
Whenever school is out.
Basketball, football, track or girls,
This lad has ways to thrill,
A hep-cat dancer--any beat,
Tom Romine fills the bill.
For Betty Laley, school's a cinch,
Especially in commerce--
A teacher's joy in every way,
A very special charm, hers.
So quiet one would scarcely know
That she's in class or hall,
A trim and tidy McAvene,
Our Linda's liked by all.
A deaf'ning roar, a streak of red,
A motorcycle's tire gratesg
With camera poised, Jack Browning halts
To photograph his nTorchW-mates.
Our WLittleW farmer, quiet Lloyd,
Can blow a sax real coolg
He studies Ag, he works quite hard
And makes the most of school.
Dame Matrimony claimed some girls
From this year's senior class.
One changed from Idleman to Mood,
Blonde Mary Jane's the lass.
Another cyclist riding by,
Just going for a spin,
Is one who fits his nick-name well,
It's Moler--Charles, or WSlimW.
Our Beverly Guyot changed her name,
,The new last name is Hess.
A fine little wife this girl will make,
Unless we miss our guess.
A youth with electrical leanings
Inherited, prob'ly, from dad,
Is a whiz on the WTorch' with a camera,
Bob Curry's the nsnap-shootingn lad
Then next came Reta Vandeveer,
It's Headrick now, you know,
We thought her cute and likeable,
But so did hubby, Joe.
She's stepping high with measured tread,
Our loyal majoretteg
For Harriet Miller well-earned praise
Is never hard to get.
We've one more senior girl to give
To matriomony soon,
For Donna Perkins plans to wed--
Perhaps in May--or june?
We've one more girl, a Sanders Lass,
Joan, we'll recommend
As being such a lot of fun
And such a loyal friend.
And last of all, a chap we know
As David Herringtong
An alright guy, a year-'round friend
In either work or fun.
Did you see things that we have seen--
Some good in everyone?
Do you agree with all these traits?
well, it's been lots of fun.
We've had four years of
It hasn't all been
But joy and pride we've
The class of fifty

The Class of '57 Have These
MOMENTS TO REMEMBER
The Homecoming Dance we did the towng
The day we saw our grades go down.
We will have these moments to remember
The noisy halls, the laughter and fun,
The championship we almost won.
We will have these moments to remember
Though Freshmen turn to Seniors
And the school days disappear,
The memories we were glad to share
will linger through the years.
Though other nights and other days
May find us gone our separate ways,
We will have these moments to remember

E l0R CLASS PRUPHECY
Good evening! Welcome to another presentation of WAlfred Hitch-
cock Presents'. Tonight, I wish to enlighten all of your hearts with
another of my mirthful tales of sober suspense and beautiful bloodshed,
which always occur in this ghastly game. As you know, there has always
been one drawback which I have encountered during my attempts to enter-
tain my audience, that rogue, my sponsor. Fortunately, he will no
longer be able to be with us. He was suddenly overcome with a bad case
of displeased viewers just before we went on the air. We have decided
to use his remains as a prop in the show as a mark of respect. Should
anyone fail to enjoy the show, please feel free to come to my Inter
Sanctum after the show for a Wconferencen. I will now refrain from
breathing into your faces and present the Meller Drammer, WLife in Las
Vegas--With Death?W I shall not be present after the show for I must
catch a train. Where? To Las Vegas, of course!
As the scene opens, the High School Class of '57 from Arcola, Ill-
inois is having a class reunion at the Golden Nugget Casino in Las Ve-
gas, Nevada. The time is the summer of 1977. A huge crowd has gath-
ered at the various gambling devices. The operator of the roulette
wheel is none other than Jerry 'Log' Thompson. Jerry seems to be very
successful in the gambling business, he tried the aerial spraying busi-
ness but had to give it up because the Spark Knock Special gasoline
that Roy Ashley sold him couldn't get the plane off the ground. Roy
gave up the gas station to become the pay teller here at the casino.
Monte Stump is dealer at the poker tables. He finally learned how to
play cards after four Wlean' years at school. 'Cat Man' Cox is chief
mechanic for the countless slot machines. 'Cat' has used his mechani-
cal knowledge to set the machines so that the customer never loses.
The casino loses money that way but Tom likes for things to run effi-
ciently. Jack Browning, Bob Curry, Lloyd Little, and Dave Uphoff are
running a hot dice game in the corner. 'Black Jackn, Lloyd, and 'Cob-
bie Bohn are now famous professional hoods from Chicago, but Dave is a
successful farmer turned gambler for the night.
As the stage curtain opens, Pat Harris Young and Joan Sanders
swing across the floor in their familiar dance routine originated at
the Arcola Sweet Shop. They have on beautiful ballerina costumes for
their number. Ruth Ann Keal is the big hit of the show, she sings
opera while playing the flute. Peggy Phillips makes a good living as
cigarette girl specializing in snuff. Janet Smart works in the Casino
also, she is the strong armed bouncer of the Golden Nugget.
Among the group of enthused gamblers are Donna Rae Wood, Virginia
Connor, and Harriet Miller. Donna Rae, who is quite a cackler anyway,
is running a poultry farm in Lower Sloblovia. Virginia feeds and
waters the chickens and Harriet is in charge of the sales department.
The smoke clears as 'Married Mann Myron Shonkwiler rushes in. He
keeps shouting to the world, 'I'm the son of a seven pound fatheri' As
Joe Gaylord slips through the door, a shot rings out, barely missing
him. Chief Marshal Charles Moler and his policewomen assistants, Shir-
ley Carlberg and Marjorie Chumbley seize the would-be killer. It turns
out to be Pat Cox. She cries out, 'I don't care what happens, Gaylord
you will never find out my freckle remover formula.' The Honorable
William Perkins bursts through the swinging doors to bring order.
Being the judge, he demands that the case of Joe Gaylord versus Pat
Cox be tried at once in the casino.
Stan Allen, M. D., and his nurse, Betty Laley, check the condition
of the victim and find that he is in perfect shape except for a black
eye. The court clerk, Tim Monahan calls for order in the court and
swears in the first witness, Tom Romine. The plaintiff's lawyer, 'Con-
vict 'emn Dave Herrington, starts the questioning. After a thorough
questioning, it is found that Tom was not in Las Vegas at the time of
the shooting and he is then released from further questioning. The
defense lawyer, 'Rabid One' Robbie Arrol, calls Brenda Biggs to the
stand. She argues to the court that Pat had every right to shoot Joe
for the embarrassment that he had caused her. Janet 'ShagW Cox is
called to the stand and refuses to testify for she is distantly related
to Pat Cox and would not want to be partial. Because the last witness,
Ann Laymon, is too excited to talk fbelieve it or notil, further ques-
tioning is dismissed and the fate of Pat Cox is put into the hands of
the jury, composed of Ethel Daily, Marquitta Herrington, Audrey Lan-
dreth, Linda McAvene, Diane Myers, and Donna Perkins. Only six jurists
are used because they are all womeng women talk things over twice as
long before making a decision.
After a heated debate the jury arrives at a decision. Head jurist
Audrey announces to the court that Pat Cox is to go free on probation
if she publishes the results of her freckle remover research. Wild
cheers are heard as the smoke again fills the room and the intense
gambling is resumed.

HISTORY
The Student Council is an organizing group which keeps the school
running smoothly. It is a non-profit organization which receives its
funds for operating expenses from the school board.It sponsors various
kinds of programs and entertainment throughout the year.
This year they sponsored a dance after the Arcola-Tuscola football
game to improve the feeling of sportsmanship and to lessen the rivalry
between the two schools. Hot chocolate and doughnuts were served and
the high school dance band provided the music. The get-together was a
big success.
The council also sponsored a safety program concerning a dr1ver's
reactions to different driving conditions. A guest speaker and local
and state police officers took part in this program along with the
students and teachers.
The officers of the council this year were President, Dave Herr-
ingtong Vice-President, Georgia Herringtong and Secretary, Peggy Phil-
lips. The students representing them at the state convention at Chic-
ago this year are Ed Hein and Art Beazley.

History
The Lettermen's Club was first organized in 1953 by Coach
Lou Baker. The purpose of the club is to encourage better re-
lationship between athletics and the school,
In order to be eligible for membership, a boy has to earn
a varsity letter in some sport.
Each year the club has several projects which they try to
complete during the school year. One of the projects is to
have pictures made of all distinguished basketball or foot-
ball teams and to hang them in the new gym. Also we decided
to have enlargements made of the players who have made all
area or all conference. Under the pictures will be all the
honors that that player has received during his high school
career.
A project completed this year, with the help of the
school board, was hanging a large welcoming blanket and one
pennant for each school in the Okaw Valley in the new gym,
Each spring the Lettermen's Club tries to save enough
money to go out for a nice dinner and to have some sort of
entertainment. The extra money always goes towards new pro-
jects for the next school year,
