19 c O 42 CAULDRON DOROTHY McCLEERY—Editor HILLIARD FJORD—Assistant Editor BOB ELLSWORTH and SHIRLEY HILDEBRAND—Business Managers — . n a i k i r A A 1 cf r Cauldron boil and cauldron bubble, In this book forget your trouble. NI EN FO TWO THE TALE OF THE CAULDRON A cauldron is a large, soot-begrimed vessel in which, long ago, witches brewed their magic potions and barbarous Teutons boiled their meats. From its black depths the golden brown syrup of the giant maples has bubbled. It played an important part in Pilgrim households in the making of soap ond candles. Irreverent moderns have filled it with dirt and climbing ivy; which is too ig- nominious an end for one standing for so much. We have resurrected it, filled it with laughter so hat it bubbles once more, added bits of ribbon, programs, score cards ond tro- phies: mementoes of hoppy memories. New ideas have been tossed in from time to time, mixed ond become parts of ideals. Under it were kindled the bright fires of friendships. Strong hands have stirred it, putting in the wisdom they have found and the dreams they hove dreamed. If in the future it brings happy memories of these years, the Cauldron shall have truly come into its own. IN DEDICATION TO iTlkf fCatkaiine Reuthei She has ever been understanding pf our short-comings as well as our merits, helping us with our problems whenever she could. We value her friendship highly for we know that it shall endure far be- yond our school days and shall leave us with many pleasant mem- ories. She loves to travel and has done so extensively in the United States. Needlepoint and knitting occupy her time when she is not reading or enjoying as a spectator the legitimate theater or some school sport. She is in charge of the cheerleaders, and the success of Prom and Class Night are due in a great extent to her efforts. She comes in daily contact with most of us thru her duties as an American History teacher and has helped us to find the true meaning of democracy in her teachings about our forefathers and in our associations with her. Unconsciously she has set before us a standard which we hope to measure up to some doy. Thus, with humbleness and pride we offer this, our Cauldron, to Miss Katharine Reuther, as a token of our endeavor. The Class of '42. FACULTY SUPERINTENDENT GEORGE E. DE WOLF, M.A. Superintendent and Board Although Mr. DeWolf’s position as Su- perintendent of Schools takes up much of his time, he is never too busy to give some helpful advice or to help students form good democratic ideals. His natural in- terest in the students is augmented by his great interest not only in sports activities, but also in every activity that is carried on in the school. The school board is chosen by the peo pie of Downers Grove to work with Mr. DeWolf in the administration of affairs concerning the high school. This board consists of five very fine and capable peo- ple. who are not only interested in the probems of the high school but can under- stand them. Many of the board members have had children of their own in high school recently. Mr. T. O. Westhafer is president and the secretary is Mr. W. D. Herrick. Other members of the board are Mr. B. H. Groves. Mr. J. Walter Scott and Mrs. Bruce Doster. Mrs. Doster is a new member of the board this year but is well known to the students through her work as a substitute. Mr. B. H. Groves Mr. C. W. Scott Mr. T. O. Westhafer Mr. W. D. Herrick Mrs. Bruce Doster Nine Our Principal and Dean of Girls Our principal and dean of boys. Clar- ence Johnson, is well known by all our stu- dents as he goes quietly and efficiently about his many and varied duties. As ad- ministrator of the curriculum he comes into direct contact with the daily life of every student that enters our doors. This duty includes the planning of Home Room where the students may discuss their ideas of school life problems. He also has charge of assemblies and secures for us many in- structive ond enjoyable programs. Aside from these things he interviews future em- ployers so that he may bring back useful knowledge to the Life Problem Class of which he is co-instructor. It is his place to keep our school a smooth running machine —a machine into which an uncommon amount of interest ond helpfulness has been instilled for Mr. Johnson goes past his required duties to act as friend and guide to students who go out into fields of business or higher education. For this kindness and friendship we graduates are forever grateful. The ready hand which greets us so warmly os we enter our high school and the friendly, smiling face behind it are those of Mrs. Charlotte Andersen, our Dean of Girls and Junior-Senior girl coun- selor. She also has charge of Senior girls home room and this year has established a home nursing course. This same friendly guidance is proffered all thru our school years, to both boys and girls, all of whom she knows by name. Mrs. Andersen has the faculty of endear- ing herself to all who know her. She is always quite understanding and sympa- thetic as she listens to our ideas, pleas, or tales of woe. In return she offers spiritual, social, ond educational advice which seems to solve all our difficulties. Costumes, uniforms, extra shoes, boots or books find temporary refuge in her of- fice if lockers are too full to hold them. She also turns it over to groups of girls when no other room is available. In Mrs. Andersen we hove found a last- ing friend and confidant whom we shall always remember with affection. 1 CLARENCE W. JOHNSON. M.A. Principal Ten CHARLOTTE D. ANDERSEN. M.A. Dean of Girls P. T.

Through the tag days, which they sponsor, the associa- tion has been able to obtain funds with which they work toward the betterment of music in our schools. The major addition, which was made possible by the work of the band parents this year, was the purchase of a new re- cording machine. This machine will bene- fit the bands in many ways; by enabling them to hear how they play, and so open- ing the way for greater improvement. PARENT-TEACHERS ASSOCIATION The Parent-Teachers Association is striv- ing to help the student body by close co- operation between parents and faculty. Through the tuberculin tests which they sponsor, they help to safeguard the health of the students. Open House, which is held early in the year, gives the teachers and parents a chance to get acquainted. The annual Christmas concert is also spon- sored by the P. T. A. with the cooperation of the music department. The words of Odell. To live, to think, to work, to sacrifice for the citizens of to- morrow” could rightfully be used as the motto of the Parent-Teachers Association.

Maintenance and Cafeteria CLINIC Cuts and bruises, burns and frostbites, headaches and nosebleeds, all find ready solace in our clinic and their treatment gives practical experience to the girls who help there. We were sorry to lose Miss Jackson when she retired, but we welcome Mrs. Ingram and congratulate her on the skill with which she took over the problem of our health. CAFETERIA Shouts of Happy Birthday may ring out loudly and disturb not one whit the other classes for our Cafeteria hos been sound proofed. Another addition is the two types of plate lunches now offered to students and faculty. We rest assured of our good health at the hands of the excellent staff of our fine cafeteria. MAINTENANCE Mr. Irving Leverenz heads the com- petent staff of five men whose duty it is to see that clocks display the correct time, pencil sharpeners sharpen, ink spots are re- moved and that rooms are kept clean and neat. They are always ready to lend a hand to anything needed by students or faculty members. Their duties do not end inside of the school, but extend to the care of our cam- pus. It is due to their skill that our cam- pus is among the most beautiful in the state. Mr. Leverenz, Mr. Vanderploeg. Mr. Crider, Mr. Blumonshine, Mr. Rungger. A. Major, D. Himes. F. Labastille. I.

Jock Emerson THE SENIOR SAGA The class of '42 has played a large part in athletics, music, dramatics and clubs all through their four years of high school, and have done very well scholastically. As is fitting for those who are about to go on to new and greater fields they have conducted their affairs with true demo- cratic feeling. This was evident in their election of class officers. Nominees were chosen by delegates from the individual home rooms. These were accepted by the seniors following an election by represen- tatives of each. Seniors voted at polls set up in the auditorium before and after school and during lunch periods. The of- ficers elected are representative of the graduating class, for their grades have been high and they have been active in exlra-curriculor activities. They are Hilliard Fjord, president: Jack Emerson, vice presi- dent; Robert Zollinger, secretary: and Ray- mond Loy, treasurer. The president acts as chief giftatorian at Class night and, as representatives of his class, passes on the traditional wooden spoon to the Junior president on Senior Recognition Day. The care of caps and gowns for the graduation ceremonies falls to the secretary and treasurer. Some of the Seniors have offered their services to their country's armed forces while the rest have done their part in Na- tional Defense work and have studied First Aid, Home Nursing, and regulation drill- ing in gym class. The Seniors of the class of '42 have ful- filled their promise to carry on tradition. They turn over their duties to the Juniors with the echoed wish for good luck which has been handed down from the first senior class. Nineteen H. Ahlgrim M. Babcock N. Barnes R. Baumboch N.

Realizing the important part they will soon play in the educational and business world they have planned their home room periods this year to include movies, The Cleeton Vocational Interest Test, and per- sonality studies to aid them in finding what they are best fitted for and how to im- prove themselves. They have been well represented in sports, drama, music, and other extra curricular interests. As is the custom they acted as ushers for the seniors at Baccalaureate and spon- sored the Junior-Senior Prom. The class officers were chosen with due regard to ability in the same manner as the seniors. They are Edward Pietrowski, President; Fred Uphoff, Vice-President; Jean Colby, Secretary; and Shirley Diet- meier, Treasurer. The Juniors play an important part at senior recognition, for it is there that the responsibilities and duties of the seniors are formally turned over to them. This transition is symbolized by the wooden spoon with which all things that enter the Cauldron are stirred. The spoon is given to the president who promises to care for it and to carry on faithfully the school's traditions. He will act as class president until the senior class election next fall. The seniors then take leave of the juniors, confident that they shall carry on meritori- ously, and wish them the very best of luck on the last lap of their journey through high school.

The Sophomores have been divided al- phabetically into ten groups which meet for thirty-five minutes every Thursday. These groups have elected officers who cooperate with their faculty advisors to plan entertaining and educational meet- ings for their classmates. The Sophomores studied a phamphlet entitled Your Future which helped them to decide their life work and to choose their courses for the next two years. They have analyzed themselves and learned how to build their character and personality. To aid them in this they have studied a booklet entitled Understanding Ourselves. This deals with the social, scholastic and individual problems of aver- age students of their age. They took the California Standardized Test to find the strong and weak points of their person- alities. Several of the Sophomore home rooms have enjoyed frequent roller skating par- ties at nearby rinks. Scholastically, they have held a high place on the honor roll. The boys have entered enthusiastically into such sports as football, basketball, track, golf and tennis. The girls have paralleled them in participation in sports and clubs. One-fourth of the first band is com- posed of Sophomores and they are well represented in the other musical organiza- tions. They have also entered into the fields of drama and art with evident suc- cess. •. «..0 « M y ’M o 'PVM « '••ll ® 9 •►. 1 M « 0 A •« ' 11 f ' « V t ‘ 9 S ':«i® 4 l- Ol ISHf '- 4 C ■« 0 A n pO «®M V • • 1 1 ‘«twts f i 0 «S A O-OlS f 1 V-t I II M 0 '«H 4 • (•«■« 0 4 ■ •It-C'to 1-AAOI 0M09 S V- ' • ■“• • • ■ M ’Vtl'M O 'P-«P«M '1 '( 1 0 'l‘ 9' S | '(Mli A ‘MUMi V -W“ !S f 1 ■ ( 'g '|0 A M n- v .g f ' w-|g I • • «-•• • mt |- Ol OllHl .

Each year their task becomes greater as they assume new duties and responsibilities, for they have proved themselves capable of fulfilling them. The Freshmen were introduced to the different clubs and activities at special meetings. The G.R. Big Sister Tea was held primarily for the girls so that they might become better acquainted with their future classmates. After a few weeks of school they gath- ered at the Freshman party to compare notes and become initiated into High School social life. In Home Room they studied a book which helped them to adapt themselves to High School. A thorough tour of the school helped them to acquaint themselves with their surroundings. Talks on different sub- jects gave them a better idea of how to plan their school program. This year more than ever before they have taken part in dramatics, music, ath- letics, and other school activities Hi-Y, G.R. and G.A.A. boasted an exceptional- ly large number of Freshmen on their rolls. These members have all been active and their many suggestions and ideas were enthusiastically received by the various or- ganizations. They have shown speciol promise in the musical field and they had the honor of having one of their classmates receive a feminine lead in the Operetta for the first time in the history of our school. Altogether they have made a fine start and show great promise of developing into a well talented class during the next three years. Thirty-eight BOTTOM ROW—M. Oovidsmcyer, F. Uphoff, T.

The School Council The School Council enjoyed one of its most active years, due partly to council members being elected in the spring and meetings being held fourth period on Wed- nesdays instead of after school as before. Adding to the schools gala social life. Council's Social Committee sponsored the Freshman parties, the D-Club Football Dance, the Aiumni Dance complete with checkroom, the after school Sub Zero Heat Wave. and the annual School Council Party. The Cafeteria Committee aided the Cafeteria Staff in presenting students sug- gestions. in planning coke rationing along with such improvements as plate lunches. The Publication Committee presented the school with many colorful posters and wrote council stories for High Life. The Activities Committee, not to be out done, shov ed slides to freshman home- rooms. helped to acquaint eighth graders with extra-curricular activities and sur- veyed and promoted clubs including the Junior Journalism Club. Sale of Trojan stickers and candy fi- nanced Council's school projects. The boys of School Council acted as fire and air raid wardens, helping to refill fire extinguishers and furnishing directions for each room. Council also entered into over 50 mis- cellaneous activities, the most important of which were securing rubber mats, for the boys' locker room: serving as guides on several occasions: and making a recom- mendation concerning ticket sales for ath- letic events, which was later presented to the West Suburban Conference. A number of delegates attended the state convention at the Congress Hotel and the District Convention at Highland Park where the local president. George DeWolf. presided. Officers, elected by the forty Council members, are: President. George DeWolf: Vice-President. Martha Miller; Secretary. Ted Wagenkencht: and Treasurer, Fred Uphoff. Fcrty National Honor Society Scholarship, leadership, character, and their participation in school activities is the basis on which students are selected for National Honor Society. A list of all the students who qualify for the society, is passed among the members of the faculty. A vote is taken, choosing a group of the most outstanding students from this first list. After the first ballot, a smaller list is made, eliminating those who received the fewest votes, and another vote is taken. This is the final decision, and decides who are to be members. This year National Honor Society con- sists of thirteen students from the Junior class; and forty-one members of the Senior class, of whom fifteen were chosen in their Junior year. This makes a total of fifty-four members. Awards are given in a special assembly which is attended by all the students. Members are given their choice of either a pin or a charm in the same design. The Golden Torch, an emblem of knowl- edge is set on a background representing the activities by which life is rounded out. The National Honor Society is one of the goals all students want to reach dur- ing their high school career. It brings hon- or to all who attain membership, and shows that they have made a real effort to become outstanding citizens of tomorrow. STANOING—B. Towslcy. J. Finger. J. Ostcrmeicr, J. Bolton, H.

R. award. Each Senior voted for three girls. These girls represent the four fold standard of patriotism, dependability, leadership, and service. The three taking top honors were Janice Baxter, Betty Towsley, and Jene Finger. After much consideration, the fac- ulty chose Janice Baxter as the girl whom they believed best filled the qualities. Our D.A.R. chapter will enter her name along with those from other sections of the state, from which three will be drawn. A trip to Washington, D. C., with those chosen from the other forty-seven states will be awarded to the girl whose name is drawn first. If she is unable to attend, the second, and then the third may go. Janice, Jene, and Betty will receive awards and pins of Good Citizenship in recognition of their achievements. Good girl, Janice! The students and faculty all congratulate you on your grand spirit and success. ACTIVITIES The Annual Carnival A jovial Uncle Sam winked a greeting at all comers to the Carnival on February 27 and 28. Patriotic decorations in red. white and blue claimed attention on all sides. Sailor capped girls dealt out yummy hot dogs, hamburgers, doughnuts and all kinds of beverages at the Mobile Canteen of the G.R. Marksmen in the making, after throw- ing darts at varicolored targets and pop- ping at Big Game or bull's eyes with BB guns, cooled off at the G.A.A. Ice Cream Booth or the Hi-Y Concentration Camp, where hair raising sights greeted them. The stage show, containing a variety of music and drama, entertained a crowded house and performers retired with the din of an enthusiastic audience in their ears. The enlarged Gym Show was one of the main attractions and later, amateurs were invited to try their skill on the equipment. Dance music for young and old was sup- plied by The Rhythm Aces, an orchestra from our own school. The cries of telegram messengers ming- led with the terrifying screams from the Concentration Camp, an occasional tingle- ling as some marksman made a bull's eye, soft strains of a waltz and the general clamor, formed a pleasant buzz in the ears of tired but happy celebrators as they turned homeward. Forty-five The Operetta H. M. S. PINAFORE Cast of Characters The Rt. Hon.Sir Joseph Porter Dick Turner Captain Corcoran David Wolfe Ralph Rackstraw Dick Deadeye Boatswain Boatswain Mate Josephine Hebe Little Buttercup . Don Mitchell . Joe Sutter Alfred Reed Jim Duquette Nancy Kunath Agnes Johnson Pat Nolan W. S. Gilbert, as a brilliant satirical thrust against the British government's naval reforms, wrote the words to the op- eretta, H. M. S. Pinofore, which was given on March 26 and 27 by the choruses under the direction of Mr. William G. Pohl- mann. The story deals with the rivalry between Sir Joseph Porter, Admiral of the navy, and Ralph Rackstraw, a common sailor, over the hand of Josephine, the captain's daughter. Josephine is in love with Ralph so they decide to steal ashore at night and be married. Dick Deadeye, the vil- lain, learns of the plot and after revealing it to Sir Joseph and the Captain, succeeds in his plan of having Ralph thrown into the dungeon. Little Buttercup, a bumboat woman clears up the problem by revealing the secret that as she cared for the two babies, Ralph and the Captain, she had mixed the children up. After Sir Joseph re- arranges the offices of the two the oper- etta ends with a quadruple wedding. Forty-six Orchestra and Music Club The orchestra, conducted by Miss Elsie Adams, consists of thirty-five members. Fourteen violins and a piano have been added to the orchestra's property. During the year the orchestra has fur- nished music for three ploys and the oper- etta. H.M.S. Pinafore, and partici- pated in the Christmas Program and a program for the Woman's Club. In a special class, Miss Adams taught beginners to play string instruments. After one semester these students were eligible to join the regulor orchestra. For her master's degree. Miss Adams wrote the first movement of o symphony, which she conducted last spring at the Sherwood Music School. The Music Club, under the guidance of Miss Elsie Adams, was formed by students who are interested in general music. It provides on opportunity for those who do not actively participate in musical or- ganizations to find an outlet for their ap- preciation and interest in music. At these meetings, held twice a month, reports on the lives of famous composers were given, members entertained the club with musical and vocal selections, and recordings were played. The members received instruction in har- mony and musical value, and enjoyed sev- eral trips to Curtis Hall in the Fine Arts Building. ORCHESTRA STANDING—R. Smith.

Forty-seven The Downers Band Due to Mr. Shoemaker’s ill- ness during the first port of the year, the band was under the direction of Mr. Clyde Miller, who filled in so splendidly that we were able to have the band at fall assemblies and games. Besides the many concerts Mr. Shoemaker and programs, our band has had the unusual experience of playing at 6:30 in the morning, for the many groups of draft- ees leaving from this district. The changes in contest rulings which lim- it the state finals to only two bonds from each section, and prevent out of state competition, hove caused much disap- pointment for they eliminate all hopes for National Championship, and have forced the band into even stiffer competition than before. Mr. Shoemaker encouraged the organiz- ing of ensembles to build future bands. In addition to the National Champion brass sextet, we now have a drum quintet, a drum trio, and a clarinet quartet. He has also done a great deal of work with the second and third bands to condition them for first band and to instill in them a greater appreciation of classical and semi- classical music.

The increasing demand for the choir has brought them a full program of concerts. Be- sides the annual concert given at the end of the school year in the Methodist Church, and the annual Christmas program, they have sung at the Armis- tice program, Lincoln's birthday, the Home Defense Rally. High School and Lincoln School P.T.A. meetings, Baccalaur- eate and Commencement programs. The Girls' A Cappella has been an active group for a comparatively small number of years. The members meet three times each week, on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, and have, through diligent prac- tice, acquired a large and varied reper- toire. An evidence of the fine work the girls are doing, under the direction of Mr. Pohlmann. was seen in their performance at the annual Christmas program. The training and experience in chorus work, which is gained by the giris through this group proves valuable to future A Cappella Choir membership. Mr. Pohlmann A CAKKfcl.LA- BACK ROW.

Its purpose is to bring the girls in closer contact with the theatre and enables them to see more good plays at less cost. A group of eleven girls ac- companied by Miss Franke attended a performance of Blossom Time, a tale of Schubert's life. No officers were elected this year so Virginio Vogele is the unof- ficial treasurer. Any who hove interest in the world of drama whether as participants or onlook- ers: or who wish to uncover some slumber- ing talent are welcomed warmly to the Dramatics Club.

Fifty-one All School Play JANE EYRE Magnificent Thornefield Hall shadowed by mystery and echoing with strange screams and cries shall long remain in the memories of those who attended Jane Eyre. Jane enters Thornefield Hall as gover- ness to Mr. Rochester's ward, Adele. Here she finds happiness and iater love. Her marriage to Rochester is halted when the manioc in the West Wing is revealed as his wife. The curtains drop as Jane, now an heir- ess, and Rochester, blinded in a futile at- tempt to save his wife, again plan their marriage. Thrill climax comes when the maniac at- tempts to murder Rochester and the men- acing figur6 of Grace Poole supplies shiv- ers throughout. Laugh interest is supplied by Leah and Hannah, the two maids. Mrs. Fairfax, the kindly housekeeper, acts as friend and ad- visor to Jane. The fine cast was under the direction of Miss Catherine Wood.

The story revolves around the Hope family, Geneva. Hilton. Claude, and Mrs. Hope. Mrs. Hope, who is the maddest of the mad Hopes, is a frivolous English ma- tron, living with her three children in Nice, France. By investing in insecure securi- ties, the Hopes have been made penniless. Mrs. Hope, who has never been so pov- erty stricken before, keeps right on buying jewels, millinery, and other luxuries as though nothing whatsoever had happened. Things come to a head when Henry Frost, an American, comes to visit with Claude. Mrs. Hope tries to make light of the situation, but Claude tells Henry of the circumstances. Henry knows a He- brew, as Mrs. Hope calls him, and asks him for 80,000 francs for the Hopes. The first act ends with Mrs. Hope going out to spend the money she hasn't yet received. Mr. Klein advances the 80,000 francs. Geneva and Henry Frost marry, and Mr. Klein and Mrs. Hope become quite good friends as the play ends happily.

Though the smile of fortune seems mis- directed for a while, happiness, love, and success ultimately come to those who de- serve it. The memorable performance of the fine cast was under the direction of Miss Wood. Fifty-four Debate Resolved, that every able-bodied male citizen of the United States should have one year of full-time military training be- fore reaching the present draft age. Sponsor of the arguments, pro and con. on the National Debate Question was the Debate Club organized in the first semes- ter speech class which was open to upper classmen in lieu of a semester in English. Mr. Ivan Rehn, teacher of the class, is also the advisor to the club and coaches the debate squad. The club offers opportunity for practice in speaking and also encour- ages comprehensive research on current topics. The varsity debate squad, made up of the four most competent speakers, enters competition with many schools in this part of the country. Teams from Indiana. Michi- gan, and Wisconsin were met in a tourna- ment held at LaPorte. Indiana, from which Downers emerged with a tie for first place. The Augustana tournament at Rock Island. Illinois, awarded the local team with a tie for third place. Burlington, Iowa, won the tournament. This year, the West Suburban standings were decided in a round-robin tourna- ment on March 2 I. The home team missed first place by losing one debate to the champions, LaGrange. The conference banquet was held that night at the Green Shutters Tea Room in LaGrange. The Downers debaters also entered the Illinois High School Association tourna- ment beginning with the Sectional Contest on March 28 and winning third place. This qualified them to enter the state finals at the University of Illinois on April 24 and 25. Many other students gained experience in practice debates with Elgin, Dundee, East Aurora, Sandwich, and New Trier High Schools. Various civic organizations, such as, The Downers Grove Women’s Club. The Congregational Men’s Club, The American Legion and the Parent Teachers Association, asked the club to fur- nish programs for their meetings. DE8ATE CLUB FIRST ROW—J. Baxter, M. Hartrler, Z.

Fifty-five Art and Commercial Clubs This year has been a busy and interest- ing one for the Art Club. They sponsored an exhibit of craft work by the Art De- partment and another from the DeKalb Teachers College, which were open to everyone. Meetings were held twice a month and members had the novel experiences of making masks and sketching to music. Cos- tume designing, jewelry and American fur- niture were the topics of some of the en- tertaining and instructive talks given at the meetings. Other meetings were spent on subjects not taken up in the art classes and a visit to the Art display at the Pub- lic Library. This display was gathered from the various art classes Jane Allen, Virginia Pease, and Jeanne Kidwell were chosen as President, Program Chairman, and Vice-President-Secretary, respectively. Miss Gillmor was advisor. Views of many varied and interesting phases of the women's business world were presented to the Commercial Club this year by means of outside speakers. Mrs. Roy Schubert gave a very interest- ing talk on the general office work de- manded of a secretary or stenographer. She also compared such work with that of a factory worker. The Club President, Helen Zolotar, re- viewed the subject of women in business, which was taken from Fortune Magazine. At the dinner, which the club gives year- ly. Miss Erma Shotola demonstrated the equipment in the Main Office of our High School. A favorite pastime at the meet- ings was the construction of cross word puzzles with the use of shorthand words. Meetings were held monthly. There were no dues so collections were taken up when necessary. The officers were: Helen Zolotar, Presi- dent: Kathleen Lockett, Vice-President; Mary Tee, Secretary: June Niedner, Treas- urer. Miss Frush acted as advisor to the twenty-five members. MODEL—J.

All those who take Bi- ology and attend half of the gatherings throughout the year are members of the Biology Club. Mr. Daigh, as faculty advisor, has en- couraged students to develop interest in either amateur or professional biology for it offers a background for almost any field a student may enter in later life. Enrollment has reached a new high this year with one hundred and eleven mem- bers. Roy Dosselman was elected Presi- dent; Pat Kelly, Vice-President; and Phe- obe Wiliis, Secretary. The members have enjoyed several skir- mishes through the surrounding fields and woods in search of strange and interest- ing insects, animals and birds. A hike along the DuPage River to find marine life with which to replenish their aquarium pro- vided entertainment for one of the meet- ings. A visit to the rare collection of the Field Museum and a tour of the fine labs at St. Procopius College in Lisle offered a novel experience. Members were thrilled by Rev. Albert Pitman's tales of fishing and seal hunting in Newfoundland. They also took their annual trip to the Interna- tional Stock Show in Chicago. The dog show which is sponsored by the Biology Club has become a special affair in our school curriculum. Members are in- vited to display the talents of their pets and ribbons are awarded to the best in their individual classes. Another event the students look for- ward to with pleasure is the Biology Club picture which is presented every year. Members vie with each other to see who can sell the greatest number of tickets and the proceeds are used to buy new books and equipment. This years' movie. Cou- gar the Killer, was thoroughly enjoyed by the many students who saw it. Fifty-seven t Hi-Y Club The Hi-Y is a boys' organization, whose endeavor is to build and maintain high standards of Christian character, provide opportunities for leadership training and group organization. It is divided into two groups. Freshman-Sophomore and Junior- Senior, under the direction of Mr. Ralph E. Cressey and Mr. Earl C. Wolfe. Freshmen wishing to join must file appli- cations with Mr. Cressey. After attending a required number of meetings, they are entered on the roll as members. Juniors and Seniors are subject to dues of $.50 a year. During their last two years they are formally inducted into the National Hi-Y Fellowship by Mr. Wolfe. Election of officers is held in the Spring, and those chosen are asked to attend the State Hi-Y training camp for a week, with expenses partly paid. A representative has also been elected to attend the National Hi-Y Congress to be held this summer. The Older Boys Conferences are es- pecially well liked by the boys, for there they may hear nationally known speakers on such subjects as Boy and Girl Relation- ships, Personality Developments, Priorities on Youth and other matters of national importance. The Hi-Y cooperates with the G.R. to sponsor one of the best liked affairs of the year, the G-R Hi-Y dance. Funny paper characters were the theme of the party this year. The two clubs also combined to collect, repair and distribute toys to chil- dren of needy familes at Christmas time. The Concentration Camp was Hi-Y’s contribution to the Carnival this year. Visitors were conducted through intricate passage ways by uniformed guards, and were shown caricatured conditions in such camps. Fifty-eight Hi-Y Cabinets SEATED—D. Wolfe. H. Fjord.

These were very successful, and have been given a per- manent place on the schedules for forth- coming years. The Social Service Club has done ex- cellent work this year helping the school nurse distribute gifts to ill persons, giving seven glorious Thanksgiving baskets, visit- ing the Old Folks Home in Wheaton, and working with the Hi-Y on the annual Christ- mas Toy Project. The entire student body participated in preparing the toys which v ere distributed to 100 families. Hostesses for social meetings are pro- vided by the Charm Club. In May a group of these girls were hostesses to our moth- ers at the installation of new officers. Thirty Charm Club members modeled beautiful foreign costumes accompanying a talk by Miss Rebecca Parrish who is a missionary to China and who has been around the world several times. The Craft Club has done beautiful work with leather and twisted crepe paper. This group also made the purple and white pom poms for the LaGrange-Downers football game which the G.R. sponsored. Every year the new members are in- vited to the Big Sister Tea where they meet old members and are invited to join. Introduction games assure new girls of making lots of new friends, and learning about G.R. Miss Fronk. Freshman-Sophomore G.R. advisor, and Miss Bales. Junior-Senior ad- visor. have been very successful in joining the two . sections by having more joint meetings and combined cabinet meetings. The 1942-43 cabinet members have been elected and appointed in compliance with the complicated election plan of the organization. Sixty Girl Reserves The G.R. Chorus is an active addition. Its membership of 35. composed mainly of A Cappella members, is open to all Girl Reserves. The chorus performs at the so- cial meetings adding much to the pro- gram. The fathers at the Dad-Daughter Coffee enjoyed hearing the girls sing and considered the organization quite an ac- complishment. Each year a carnival booth is managed by the Girl Reserves, who this year dec- orated it as a mobile canteen. In follow- ing the patriotic theme, red. white and blue predominated. The volunteer wait- resses were dressed as sailors and worked in three hour shifts. A pleasing profit of forty-five dollars was made on the sale of hot dogs, hamburgers, cheeseburgers, pop, coffee, and doughnuts. STANDING—D. Hancock. M. Kinnu. J. Pentecost, J. Bcsscr. J. Mozurek. P.

Sixty-one o W A ni A A Ofirt G.R.-Hi-Y Party The always new and novel G.R.-Hi-Y Party afforded entertainment to the over- worked comic characters. They stepped out of their respective papers into an at- mosphere of fun and funnies on the eve- ning of March 13. They adorned the walls, the dance programs, and occasionally ap- peared in person. Tonto (Bob Webb) and Minnie Ha Cha (Rita Conrad) walked off with first prize, while Popeye s Twin Goons (Fran Iverson and Ed Petrowski) were run- ners-up. A nurse from Don Winslow (Char- lain Cook) and the burn victim from Ella Cinders (Joe Diener) took third prize. Dancing was the main attraction al- though many other features such as dart- throwing, Chinese checkers, and card games, were played at random. Other en- tertainments were: a Smilin' Jack airplane race, in which contestants had their choice of height, distance, or spot landing com- petition, a Harold Teen guzzling contest, in which peach sodas were guzzled without the use of hands, a Wimpy race, like the guzzling contest with hot dogs in place of sodas, a Balloon relay race, and a Bath- less Groggins bareback race. All winners were awarded tasty candy bars. Through- out most of the evening popcorn balls, punch, and lollipops were served. Sadie Hawkins customs were observed during the intermission when four couples took part in a sack race, each girl trying to capture her male. Following this the funny jokes were read to all the kiddies in manners of various radio-speakers. Some of these were Walter Winchell, Jolly Joe. Quin Ryan and Red Skelton. Then a thrill- ing comic-strip-tease took place. Don- ald Whitlock and Ed Gibbs, the perform- ers, were lauded by peals of laughter. Al- though Donald, doing the comic-strip- ping, discarded many, many garments, the true climax was never reached. These amusements were terminated by a Sadie Hawkins dance which saw males being pulled down out of the rafters. Sixty-two SPANISH CLUB FRONT ROW- B. Dundas, C. Clarke, B. Hannon, J. Prescott, D.

Vons etiez un grand general Napoleon, n'est-ce pas? The scene is a monthly meeting of the Cercle Francois, the French Club. Mem- bers played French games, saw movies of French Canadian children, and conversed in French. A picnic for all members was held in the spring. Amici Boni, the Latin Club is held monthly during class period. Members play games, using Latin words and questions. The officers who plan and take charge of these meetings are: Toni Hedges, Ronnie Gansberg, Ted Wagenknecht, Leonard Groat, Jane Duncombe, Howard Mann, Bernadine Swanson. John Mochel. and Jane Ryden. In October, the three language clubs, French, Latin, and Spanish had equally important parts in making the Internation- al Dance a success. Sixty-thrco LIBRARY CLUB BOTTOM ROW —M. Weis. B.

Under the direction of Miss Celia Natzke. the members take charge of such routine work in the library, as shelving, reading shelves, mending books, and taking charge of the loan desk. Mary Jane Wolf is in charge of addressing post cards and ordering pamphlets. Open- ing and sorting of mail keeps George Hum- mer busy at least an hour a day. Yarmilla Roit reviews magazines and notifies the teachers of any articles which she thinks might interest them. The club holds monthly meetings, the first of which was a dinner in the cafeteria. At this meeting Shirley Hildebrand was elected President; Anne Koster, Vice-Presi- dent: Hazel Eastman, Secretary; and Don- na Marie Schaffner, Treasurer. At a later dinner meeting, the club entertained the West Suburban High School Librarians. Jessica Nelson North, noted writer, of Downers Grove, acted as speaker. A book review provides the entertain- ment at the monthly meetings of the Book Club, which are held at the members' homes. One of the most interesting re- views, given by Miss Franke, was on Keys of the Kingdom. The club also has a novel roll call. As each member's name is called, he must answer with a short review of some book he has read that month. The student leaders are: Dorothy Himes, President: Shirley Dietmeier, Vice-Presi- dent: and Genevieve Carlson, Secretory- Treasurer. Miss Pearl Blackwell is faculty advisor. Sixty-four Trojan ’41 and ’42 Celebrating its eighth birthday by dis- carding the customary plain covers of brown, yellow, or green, the 1941 Trojan burst forth in patriotic red, white and blue. Composed as usual of stories, essays, descriptions, and poems written by the student body, the Trojan material was se- lected by ten staff members chosen by the advisors. Miss Marguerite Poole and Miss Pearl Blackwell. The Trojan, published annually, is the only school publication written by the en- tire school. Students in every class con- tributed material through their English teachers. The themes were then read and marked ’’Excellent, Good. Fair or Poor by the staff members. The better material is put together to make Trojan. Several notable changes were made in this year's Trojan. Miss Poole and Miss Blackwell chose a staff almost twice that of the previous year, and divided it into two groups: Freshman-Junior and Sopho- more-Senior. By this method each staff member had only half as much reading to do. The most outstanding change was that every student was asked to submit a cover design. Of the many submitted the staff chose the one they thought best and the winner received a prize. As a result of these changes, the hun- dreds of themes and poems turned in were read quickly and easily. The students were brought into even closer contact with Tro- jan because they not only wrote it, but also designed the cover. 1941 TROJAN STAFF Miss Blackwell, 8. Hart. B. Hacker. 1. Wells. E. Cook.

We were asked, Will it be thick? What color is the cover going to be? May I pay the full two dollars now? but we just grinned and said, You wait and see. The choice of the theme brought for- ward hazy, half-formed ideas and some thoughtful frowns. After lengthy debate and a few disputes over technicalities it was decided that a Cauldron would be the theme. This was but the beginning. There loomed before the business managers the enormous task of selling the annual. They kept a complete file of the hundreds of subscription blanks and an accurate ac- count of the money. Meanwhile things began to hum—type- writers and pencils flew as the literary staff produced copy, pictures poured in and out again, misty designs were created, and the dummy gradually grew more plump. From the beginning the staff realized the invaluable help and suggestions which were readily given by Mr. Paine, our fac- ulty advisor. We also wish to thank Miss Gillmor for her interest and effort in the Art work.

Organized as several col- umns of the local Downers Grove Reporter in 1927 it has developed into a bi-monthly newspaper of high rating. Among the projects undertaken this year by the paper was the organization of a Journalism Club. The annual spring flower sale was again held and a number of en- joyable suppers were arranged for the members of the staff. Another project was the selling of 10 and 25 cent defense savings stamps. It was thought that by selling defense stamps the paper and school could do a little more to further our war effort. The policy of less advertise- ments and more news was successfully con- tinued throughout this year. Although the student body as a whole benefits from the paper the greatest bene- fits probably are distributed among the members of the editorial board and staffs. The responsibility involved does much to develop worthy standards of leadership. The actual writing, copyreading, head- line writing and proofreading as done by the editorial board and the reporters is supervised by Miss Grace Hennis. The business staff under Mr. Fred Daigh main- tains the sound financial standing of the paper. HIGH LIFE BOARD Editor . . JANICE BAXTER Assistant Editors ALICE KAUT BETTY TOWSLEY Feoture Editor...

Math and Model Clubs Drama has at last crept into the Math Club with the advent of Mr. Chips Teaches Geometry. The play was written and produced by members of the club be- fore all of the geometry classes, in order to arouse interest in the subject of mathe- matics. The fourteen members became seers for a day and prophesied future events based on the mathematical construction of the Great Pyramid of Egypt. Reports on subjects related to math were also given. Mr. Paine acted as advisor, Alan Hult- man os President. Dean Ford as Vice-Presi- dent. and Harriet Lewis as Secretary- Treasurer at the meetings which were held twice a month. More models for defense. was the un- official theme for the Model Club this year. Many of the meetings were spent in discussing the types and the number of model Navy planes needed by the govern- ment. though little time was spent during meetings on their actual construction. Plans for the club's indoor and outdoor model airplane meets were discussed, and good and bad points of the individual planes were noted and outlined by their owners. The boys also talked among them- selves about their other hobbies. Dues were used to purchase plans and various information obout model planes and their construction. Mr. Riddlesberger served as advisor to the fifteen boys. Club officers were as fol- lows: Frank Kakuska, President: Bob Welch, Vice-President: and Lowell Hayes, Secre- tory. Sixty-eighf Radio and Camera Clubs Dot—dot—dot—dash ... — Sponsored by Mr. William Headen, the Radio Club meets every first and third Monday of the month. At these meetings, they learn and practice Morse code and the theory of radio. The club's purpose is to train members for future emergency work, defense work, professional work, and hobbies. President. Hal Feltcher: Vice- President. Wayne Larson: and Secretary- Treasurer, Leon Larson, preside over the club of eight members. Many members have been so well trained that they own their own amateur operat- ing licenses, secured from the government. Some former Radio Club members are now in the army and navy from training in this club. Members of the Radio Club are preparing themselves for a valuable and interesting hobby leading to a suc- cessful future. The Camera Club’s purpose is to increase interest in photography in school, to teach correct methods of taking pictures, and how to develop and print pictures. The club meets twice a month: one meeting is edu- cational. and one meeting is entertaining. Mr. Everett Holt and Mr. William Cleve- land are the sponsors of the club. The club of twenty-five members has as of- ficers: President, Charles Walker: Vice- President. Robert Baumbach: and Secre- tary-Treasurer, Beatrice LaVoie. During the year, a snapshot contest was held which had approximately fifty entries: however, there were three members in first place. They were Charles Walker, Val Claus, and Allen White. If someone steps up to you with a fierce-looking weapon, you might as well stand still and smile: they're probably camera fiends. RADIO CLUB V. Larson. S. Sccgmiller, N. Jerlagc. H.

The Junior-Journalism Club was organ- ized by High Life to train underclassmen for positions on High Life Staff. Members of the club participated in a writing contest and the best story was published in High Life. They visited the Reporter office and at one meeting saw movies. Members of the Journalism Club ere invited to the monthly suppers of the High Life Staff. The officers are: President, Zora Hartz- ler: Vice-President, Norman Yost: Secre- tary, Mary Jane Engen; and Advisor, Miss Hennis. The Make-up Club was organized to give its members the opportunity to learn the tricks of stage and every day make-up. Miss Poole was the advisor of the new branch of the Dramatics Club. The result of their work and diligent practice was evident in the excellent make-up jobs in the plays and the oper- etta. JUNIOR JOURNALISM CLUB STANDING-J Boxtcr. A. Kout. M. LoPicrrc, L. Holler, P.

The necessary funds were raised, and Downers Grove became the third educational institution in the State of Illinois to possess a Trampoline. After four years of intermittent practice, the Gymnastic Club was given three prac- tice periods per week during the fifth class hour. In 1938 Mr. Barkdoll organized a Tum- bling Club at the request of Willie Ma- tuzas for an activity for football players during their off-season. Unused appara- tus was brought out of the store-rooms of both the High School and Lincoln Schools, and the name of the club was changed to Boy's Gymnastic Club. In 1940 the Gym- nastic Club was opened to both girls and boys. At the 1941 Carnival, the Gymnastic Club gave an exhibition in which the New Trier High School Gymnastic Club and Joe Giallombardo, former national inter- collegiate tumbling champion, displayed superb form. Success is the greatest motivator known. Lynne Wells, 43. put that idea in rhyme, as the club slogan: If you try something and the results are good, it will spur you on as nothing else could. For seven years after the Lack brothers gradu- ated, the only back somersaults seen around school were performed by Gloria Mares and Shirley Dourlain, who learned the stunt at dancing school. After learn- ing the difficult feat on the floor, with a few trials on the Trampoline. Harry Smith was the first to achieve success. Wayne Hanes, Jack Wilbur, and Richard Duncan were quick to follow. The Gymnastic Club needs several pieces of heavy apparatus before it will be able to compete with other schools. Some money towards that end was raised on January 16. 1942, when the New Gym was packed for the first time, to watch a combined exhibition by the local club and the New Trier High School club. Interest in the club has increased so much during the past year that parents have asked that a similar club be formed for them. Seventy-one The 1941 Prom A Hawaiian atmosphere added unusual charm to the annual Junior-Senior Prom on May 4th. One felt as if he had come upon one of the enchanting islands in the far-away Pacific. As the dancers walked onto the floor through cane huts, their eyes fell upon a mural of a typical volcanp shaded in purple shooting out hot lava and clouds of smoke. Beneath this painting, surround- ed by graceful palms, played Charles Brinchley's fine orchestra. During the intermission, soft tones of two Hawaiian guitars entertained the dancers while refreshmnets were being prepared. Following the serving of the food the girls departed to the lounge for a dash of powder while the fellows went outside for a breath of cool air. A group of Sophomore girls who were dressed in Hawaiian styled skirts, and gay- ly colored hatters went about thrusting pretty flower leis over the heads of the girls and silk leis over the heads of the boys. They also served pineapple punch and pineapple ice to the dancers, who de- clared the refreshments delicious. A picture of a dancing girl dressed in the traditional Hawaiian costume was printed on the salmon and brown pro- grams. Each year the Juniors invite the Seniors to the prom which is given exclusively for these two classes. The Freshmer. and Soph- omores .look forward to the time when they can be upperclassmen and go to this dance which is an important event in the lives of every Downers High graduate. After corsages and collars had wilted and Father Time said that twelve o'clock hod rolled around, the dancers departed. Some went home, but the rest dined and danced into the wee hours of May 5th, dead tired but happy. Seventy-two DOWNERS GROVE COMMUNITY HIGH SCHOOL ALMA MATER Wm.fi.

Neon lights blinking off and on at 42nd Street and Times Square, added to the atmosphere. Programs were made of black, suede-like paper with several sky- scrapers in one corner. Music for the danc- ing was furnished by Chet West's or- chestra. Refreshing punch was served throughout the evening by the Sophomore waitresses, and an attractive lounge in the sewing room provided a convenient place to rest between dances. The highlight of the evening was a lucky spot dance. The couple standing on the lucky spot when the music stopped was awarded prizes after they had performed the conga, rhumba, and waltz. The Prom is one of the social highlights of the year, given as a farewell party for the Seniors by the Juniors. As in former years, each member of the two classes was given two tickets with which his parents were admitted to the balcony, where they could watch the festivities and dream of their own prom days. Seventy-four ATHLETICS Mr. Borrows, Mr. Barkdoll Mr. Trygg. Mr. Bossier Mr. Udc. Mr. Ingles. Mr. Cressey Athletic Staff The triumphant three and one-half year stay of Coach Richard Dick Barrows v as abruptly terminated in mid-term this year by a call to the Army of which he was a reserve officer. Coach Barrows de- veloped a fine year-round athletic sched- ule for our school. We miss his jokes and eagerly await his new supply. We feel sure that the success of our lightweights this season was largely due to the great interest Coach Orman Barkdoll has in them. His year with the Tumbling Club has been a busy and progressive one. He also had charge of the Trojan thinclads. Donavan B. Ingles again coached the cross-country squad which brought home third place. In his four years at Downers he has made a fine record with three first place cups and this year third place in the conference. E. Frost Bossier, who had assisted Coach Barrows with the heavyweight football and basketball teams, took complete charge of them after Mr. Barrows left and did very well with them. Harry O. Trygg developed a hard hit- ting lightweight basketball squad which took second place in the conference. Coach Trygg also proved to be a valu- able assistant to Mr. Barkdoll during the football season. The success of the golf team may be duly credited to the able coaching of Ralph E. Cressey. Mr. Norman Ude, in addition to help- ing with football, did a very fine job with the intramural teams. Coach Halik. who replaced Mr. Barrows, has introduced a set of army drills to further civilian defense by training our boys. Mr. Herbert L. Adams assisted Coach Barkdoll in managing the track squad this year. Mr. Gorden Norden, who left us for National Defense work, has set a record for which future Frosh - Soph football coaches shall strive. The grade school coach. Mr. Eric Ras- mussen. very ably assisted the other coaches with heavyweight football. Seventy-seven 1941 Football HEAVYWEIGHT FIRST ROW—P. Rosen. Mgr ; H. Schicbel. F. Vocke, D. Wilson. K. Doty, 8.

When some of our teams were losing it was always encouraging for us. and the team, to know that we had the student body behind us at all times, re- gardless of what the score happened to be. The Coaching Staff. A round of applause should also go to the Band and the Majcrettes for their fine performances at the games. There is noth- ing quite like a gay and brilliant march to help cheer up a tired team and also pep up the rooters into giving all their energy in attaining the ultimate goal of victory. A new era in football achievements was attained this year with Mr. Cressey broad- casting the home games over loudspeakers for the benefit of the student body. In this manner the game was brought closer to the student body. Also the painstaking method of identifying the players via the numbers and scorecard arrangement is done away with. This method of identification was a great help to parents and friends who didn't know the players by name. This year Hinsdale gained possession of the Old Oaken Bucket by a score of 19-0. It has resided in our trophy case ever since it was presented by Hinsdale. Mr. Crcssoy—R. Grush, V. Clous, J. Besser Sevenly-nino Heavyweights LETTERMEN Nome Position Year J.

Out of the twenty-one games played this season fourteen fell easy vic- tims to the offense of the Trojans. Of the seven defeats suffered, four were dealt by conference rivals. The Trojan cagers chalked up a total of four hundred and thirty-eight points against their conference rivals' three hun- dred and fifty-four, equalled only by the fast York squad. The heavyweights lost nine out of twenty-one games. Seven of these defeats are credited to conference teams. There were three changes in coaches for the Heavies this year. The first coach was Richard Barrows, the second E. Frost Bossier and the season finally ended under the supervision of Harry O. Trygg. Three hundred and fifty-seven points were totaled against the opponents' four hundred and four in heavyweight competi- tion. HEAVIES TOP ROW—E. Pietrowski. J. Du- quette Mgr. Goltry, C. Mrvicka, K.

It has been the custom in the past for one coach to handle the squad but with the new coaches has come a new system. Track events were under the guidance of Coach Barkdoll. Field events were under Coach Adams, who was well fitted to take Mr. Norden's place for he had previously been track coach at Pekin High School. Instead of traveling to Naperville dur- ing the winter months to train the boys, a new system of developing an efficient and winning team was devised. The boys climbed ropes, lifted weights, chinned themselves and performed other stunts to develop much needed lung capacity. Old records held no fear for track men this year as was evidenced when Burke Dundas broke the standing record of 25.1 seconds for the 200 yard low hurdles with a new low of 24.8 seconds. The high jump record was broken by Martin Scranton, but as in Burke's case they are not official because of existing school rules. The relay team composed of Ed. Wad- ington, Chuck Wagner, Burke Dundas, and Martin Scranton, brought home the third place trophy from Class B of the Medley Relay held at Proviso. The Trojan thinclads' first victory over Naperville had the added prestige of deal- ing them the third defeat in a dual meet in eleven years. They also brought in a close second to Naperville’s coveted first in the triangular meet at Hinsdale. It has been the urgent wish of the foot- ball coaches that all boys wishing to enter that sport would also go out for track, for it gives them the added speed and en- durance so valuable to star grid men.

To become a member of the D Club an athlete must have earned a major let- ter in a major sport, such as basketball, football, cross-country or track. Honorary membership is granted to managers and persons receiving letters in minor sports. Every year the members of this club are invited to an annual banquet sponsored by the Downers Grove Lions Club. This year the Trojan Fathers Club also had a banquet. When this club was organized it was intended only for boys who had earned their letter in a sport. However three girls were admitted last year for their part in cheerleading: they were Shirley Dietmeier. Rosemary Grush, and Gloria Mares. Coach Barrows was the advisor for the D Club until he was called into service, after which Mr. Barkdoll became the leader. I Coach Barrows Eighty-five CROSS COUNTRY Paced by Captain Chuck Trout the Trojan harriers sailed over the Cross- Country course to end an eventful season with a third place position in the Confer- ence. Highlight of this year's Cross-Country schedule was the Proviso Relays when the Trojans came in to capture fourth place. Only three big schools edged the harriers out with Proviso, Palestine, and Morton taking first, second and third places respec- tively. Out of all the Conference teams entered we were undefeated until a few weeks later at the Conference meet. Next year's squad stands a very good chance of winning the coveted trophy and fulfilling the school’s dream. GOLF Several of the boys on the golf squad played their last season this year. They have entered into practice with the de- termination of making it their best. They will be missed, but the coach feels that several of the underclassmen have a prom- ising future. The fairway boys had an eventful sched- ule arranged for them by Coach Ralph Cressey, highlight of which was the Con- ference meet on May 22. TENNIS The Trojans were fortunate this year for a large number of veteran net toppers were here to answer the roll call. These were supplemented by an eager group of underclassmen who made up for their lack of experience by their enthusiasm, interest, and hard work. Because of the poor condition of the school's courts only a few games were played at home: the others taking place on the opponents' courts. The lads were divided into two groups, one playing singles, the other doubles. They have worked well this year and greatly improved their skill under the able direction of Coach Halik.

Eighty-six FROSH-SOPH BASKETBALL Frosh-Soph basketball teams coached by Mr. Barkdoll and Mr. Norden have proved their mettle in the four years of their existence. It is in these boys that hopes for future teams are placed and this year we have an especially good bunch from which to choose. Frosh-Soph basketball was first intro- duced to arouse interest in the game and to give underclassmen the experience and training needed for a champion varsity squad. These two years of training are a great help to the boys when they become varsity men for it teaches them cooperation and enables the coach to familiarize himself with them. All who some day hope to be basketball players are urged to join Frosh-Soph basketball teams in their first year. INTRAMURAL BASKETBALL Organized bosketboll has entered our high school and with it c system of cycles. This system has been very successful and is heartily approved by the senior and junior boys. A cycle consists of four teams, each of them alternating and play- ing two gomes apiece. High honors as Intramural Champions go this year to Bob Logan's hardwood team, who came through unbeaten and, un- tied to take first place in the senior di- vision. Running a close second, with the loss of only three games, was Joe Stack's team. The junior championship was carried off by Frank Kryzak and his hard-hitting team which had only one loss. We congratulate both Mr. Ude and Mr. Adams on their excellent work as coaches and the fine system they have introduced. FROSH-SOPHOMORE BASKETBALL TOP ROW—D. Jenkins. N. Yost. L. Monfrcis. T.

The Girl's Athletic Association is an or- ganization in which interest in athletics and the out of doors is promoted. Healthy living and good sportsmanship become a constant factor in the lives of the girls. A large number of the girls in school belong to the club and each year many more are initiated after they have passed the preliminary requirements. These are, that they must earn a hundred points by participation in athletics and following health charts. Besides the athletic functions of the club there are many social affairs throughout the year, including a Christmas party and a Spring dance. At the end of the year, the girls who have made enough points are given awards.

Phelps Girls’ Sports The sports program of G.A.A.. car- ried on throughout the year, includes soc- cer, hockey, speedball, and archery in the Fall, basketball and volleyball in the Win- ter and baseball, tennis and archery in the Spring. The supervisor of the athletic program this year were Lois Leibunguth, head of sports. Bee Ridsdale, junior assistant, and Barbara Phelps, sophomore assistant. These girls did a fine job of planning and carrying on the tournaments which are played during the year. A soccer tourna- ment was played in the Fall, intra-mural and class basketball tourney in the win- ter and also volleyball and baseball tour- naments. Girls who help the sports supervisors in playing off these tournaments and also in refereeing are formed into a group called the Leader's club. This club was organ- ized a few years ago and now is proving to be quite successful. In order to join the club the girls must pass an examina- tion concerning the rules of the various sports so that they are able to referee a game. Each sport is played for an eight week period and the girls must come out each week in order to get points for G.A.A. The girls who participate in this widely varied sports program usually find at least one sport which interests them particu- larly and many of the girls like all the sports equally well. Many friendships are made on the athletic field and a girl learns to cooperate with the group in order that her team may win. And those that are defeated earn something, too. in the way of good sportsmanship and how to take a defeat gracefully. All of these things add to a girl's character and improve her ability to make friends and get along in the world. The G.A.A. realizes all these things and so urges each girl to partici- pate in athletics and to become a more healthy, wholesome individual. Ninety-one Champions All WINNING SOCCER TEAM KNEEUNG-M.

Ninety-two Joon Lindsey The Spring Dance Cherry Blossom Time was the theme of the dance which was, os usual, a great success. White columns adorned the band stand which represented the Lincoln Memorial in Washington. A great number of G.A.A. members worked gathering trees, tying the blossoms to the branches, and doing all the other jobs connected with sponsoring a dance. Those in charge of the decorations were Mary LaPierre. Betty Derr. Lois Leibun- guth, and Eva Cook. Barbara Phelps planned the intermission program and Virginia Vogele served the refreshments. High-lighting the spring dance was the annual presentation of the silver cup to the most outstanding senior G.A.A. mem- ber. Jean Lindsey. 1941-42 President, was chosen by the faculty as the girl to be honored by having her name engraved on the cup. Jean has been outstanding in sports all through high school, and this, combined with her competent leadership as Presi- dent of Leaders Club. Head of Sports, and finally President, and her high scholas- tic record, have made her the most all- around G.A.A. girl.
