The new high school was formally dedicated November 5, 1972. The high school band and chorus provided the music for the occasion. The main speaker of the day was Dr. Ben Hubbard, Chairman of the Educational Administration at Illinois State University. Also, during the program the school board and the architects were introduced. Following the presentation of the building by the architects to Mr. Futrell, guests were allowed to tour the building and enjoyed refreshments in the commons area. The football field was also dedicated during halftime of the Homecoming Game, October 6, 1972. The football field and a surrounding track were dedicated to Mr. Charles Sprague. Mr. Sprague was honored for his many years of service to the school as head of the Ushers Club. He is also the owner of the grounds of the old football field. Even though in ill health, Mr. Sprague was able to attend the halftime activities. 6

We would like to dedicate this yearbook to Charles Lehman, the most amiable teacher on the faculty. He began his illustrious career at CCHS in 1964 after graduating from ISU with a major in Biology. Mr. Lehman would rather teach than do anything, yet he does many other things. Mr. Lehman is the wrestling and baseball coach. The wrestling team has flourished under his direction and have received many distinctions as a result of their fine performances which point to his coaching ability. He also drove the bus for football. The Uniserve, governing body for teachers in this area, has Mr. Lehman as a building representative. The church of his choice is the Baptist. Mr. Lehman enjoys hunting and fishing with his boys. Ice fishing and ceramics are also his favorites. And he is the favorite of the CCHS students. 8
