Always on the go, members of the JJC student body and faculty have made the country ' s oldest public junior college known and respected throughout the nation. The fact that JJCers are usually seen traveling together vividly illustrates the spirit of unity felt by all who enter the college. Travel with us then, as we recollect the year ' s events and those who took part in them at JJC, a school of which Illinois residents can rightfully be proud, knowing that JJC is doing its job well.

W. ROWLEY Dean Rowley is one of the busiest persons at JJC. He has been Dean of the college for the past twelve years. It is his responsibility to help students work out their problems, organize student activities, plan class programs, assign teachers to classes, sign requisitions, and attend about forty junior college events, such as dances, assemblies, games, meetings, during the year. Although he has a lot of work to do he is always available to students. Some students may have serious problems; others may just want to come in and talk with him. Dean Rowley wel- comes them all and wants them to know that he is interested in each one individually. He enjoys working with young people. This can be seen as he takes a direct interest in all student activities as well as in community affairs. To show our appreciation for his many hours of effort in our behalf, we, the staff, dedicate the 1059 SHIELD to Dean Elmer W. Rowley. Young people are his specialty He enjoys a good joke, too! HO MORES V mi v fl nl--- 6 MO j v SOPHOMORE CLASS As we, the sophomore class, leave the halls of Joliet Junior College we look back over the past two years with warm memo- ries. Could two years have passed so quickly? It hardly seems possible that we entered as scared freshmen such a short time ago. Remember the awful dragged-out en- trance exams we took, then that first fate- ful day of registration, the encounters with the sophomores and the silly tricks they played on us? As school settled down and became a routine for us, we found that JJC wasn ' t such a bad place after all; slowly we fitted into the pattern by attending football games, mixers, skating parties, splash parties, homecoming, the fall formal, clubs, or any of the other activities which were constantly going on. We learned though that school life wasn ' t all fun, for there was much work that went along with attending the oldest junior college in the nation. Themes had to be written, term papers compiled, tests and exams studied for, endless hours of research completed after endless hours in the library under Miss Skidmore ' s watchful eyes; but we took all these in our stride for Joliet Junior College was fast becoming dear to our hearts. As spring approached, the spring formal was foremost in everyone ' s mind, but it, too, soon passed as did our freshman year. In June we bid a melancholy farewell to the sophomores, with whom we had become good friends; as they left, we realized that their responsibilities were now ours. We began the fall semester with a newly gained dignity, for as sophomores we acquired a new status in school life. Although our number was reduced, for some of our classmates transferred to other colleges or dropped out for various reasons, the ones that remained were a compact and closely knit group. Members of our class were elected to high offices in many of the clubs and a sophomore was elected homecoming queen, a fact which made us all quite proud. Before we realized it, the first semester was over and the long hours of studying for finals began. How could we ever live through those examinations! But we all did, and we all welcomed the semester break which followed. During the break some of us went on the ski trip while others simply chose to relax at home after a tough semester. Again we found that time was flying, and spring had arrived once more. The annual spring formal was well attended and was an affair which will always occupy a warm spot in our memories. Soon we realized that we were doing many things for the very last time. Our days of sitting in the lounge or smoker were almost over, along with our daily trips over to the Lighthouse for coffee. On graduation night, as we marched in to the strains of Pomp and Circumstance, our hearts were filled with a mixture of happiness for having achieved our goal; and sadness, because once and for all our days at Joliet Junior College were over. FROM TOP TO BOTTOM: Dave Imig, president; Carole Sue John- son, secretary; Wayne Barnett, vice-president were elected to lead the sophomore class in their last year at JJC. ALEX ABRAMOVICH, JR.

The choir is one of the largest groups at JJC. Each year it sponsors a homecoming float and queen candidate, sings for the W.A.L. Christ- mas tea, entertains various civic groups in Joliet, organizes a swing hand, and presents an annual spring musicale.

Membership in the Press Club is composed of students interested in all phases of journalism. These members publish the Blazer, Shield, College Casuals, and write the Wolf Call for the Spectator. In this way, the Press Club unites the student body by means of the power of the press; however, the activities are not limited entirely to journalism. The club sponsored queen candidates, gave holiday parties, attended conferences, and was very active in all other school functions. The club is sponsored by Mrs. Kathryn Defarld and Mrs. Vera Smith.

Planning social events, non-social events, and acting on behalf of the student body are the main purposes of the JJC Student Council. Representatives on the counci l are from all the clubs, class officers, and representatives elected at large. From these representatives, the officers for the fall and spring semesters are chosen. Ron Knakmuhs served as president for both semesters. Gary Lichtenwalter and Carol Clark served as vice- presidents for the fall and spring terms respectively. Annette DiLorenzo was chosen secretary for both terms. The Student Council attends to quite a bit of non-social business. Disbursements of activity fees, proposed plans for a new JC smoker and cafeteria, and general items fall into this category. Thus, the council controls a large portion of the school ' s business, under the capable direction of Miss Susan Wood, sponsor. COUNCIL Social events for the school are planned by the social council, under the sponsorship of Mr. Eugene Bondar. Among the events planned were home- coming, fall and spring formals, ski trip, and all mixers and parties. Another committee working under the direction of the council is the lounge and smoker committee. This committee has complete charge of all changes or additions to these two vital places in the school. SITTING: Pat Ward, Carole Sue Johnson, Jack Lambakis.

SMS, or the Students of Medical Science, is an organization made up of all the students registered in the medical sciences. Its function is to further pro- fessional experience and to attract and route the better students into the various fields of medicine. It also acts as a testing ground for those who are unsure of their suitability for medical careers. Since its beginning in 1947, SMS has traveled about 65,000 miles on over 83 field trips to eminent medical institutions, has had over 77 doctors and professional people as speakers, and has been loaned hundreds of excellent films for medical personnel only from over 100 sources, coast to coast. The 1958-59 school year has brought trips to many hospitals, laboratories, and medical institutions in and around the Chicago area. Many of our members have gained hundreds of hours of priceless ex- perience in clinical training while work- ing in the local hospitals — a fact which makes SMS unique in the world.

Under the able direction of Alan Vail, Don Kuna, Rich Brandolino, and Joyce Messamore we forged our way through the trials and tribulations of establishing a functioning Vets ' Club. Our members have come from the army, the navy, the marine corps, the air force, and the coast guard. They ' ve traveled from Japan to the Suez to Germany. Movies taken during our stays in foreign countries were often shown at meetings. Diane Isberg was sponsored by the club for the homecoming queen contest and it was a fine feather in our cap when she emerged victorious. At Christmas time we sponsored a drive for canned foods for needy children. Our social event of the year was the A Night in Vegas dance held in the Elwood Town Hall. SEATED: Alan Vail, president.

BASKETBALL Under the direction of veteran coach A. A. Fizz Wills, the 1958-59 Joliet Junior College basketball team had a banner year. The Wolves met and defeated 1 8 opponents, while losing to only six. They were awarded two games by forfeit, completed a successful trip to Binghamton, N. Y., and finished second in the Illinois Junior College Conference winning two hard fought tests, the result a 20-6 record. Joliet failed to realize its hopes for a trip to Hutchinson, Kansas, for the National Juco Tournament finals. The Wolves lost their chance in the semi-finals of the Region 4 Tournament.

Freshman center, Gary I.ichtenwalter, finished with 127 points. Lichtenwalter was hampered by a heart condition that cut his playing time to only about 20 minutes each game. Rohby Greene, who played only four games before losing his eligibility, finished sixth with 76 points and a 19.0 average. Hank Jessen also tallied 76 markers and held a 5.1 average. Joliet as a team outscored its opposition 2119 to 1805, scoring 894 baskets and 331 free throws. Average-wise the Wolves ' 88.3 mark was No. 3 in the nation.

The Wolves made it four in a row by returning home and dumping Wright JC, 75-69 behind Pesavento ' s 28 points and lashing Elgin JC, 98-82 with Waddell, Ayers and Barone all hitting in the 20 ' s. LaSalle-Peru-Oglesby broke the skein with an 86-81 upset victory at LaSalle. Joliet was burdened by 30 personal fouls and Waddell ' s 29 points effort went in vain. Joliet came back from this demoralizing defeat to rack Grand Rapids JC, 97-84, blast Glenview 100-40 and smash Thornton JC 107-66 in three home court battles. Barone Joe Pesnvento fired in 32 against Grand Rapids with 24 coming in the first 20 minutes. Waddell hit 22 in his last game against Glen- view and Pesavento sparked the Thornton rout with 29.

Who could ever forget that hectic day of registering for the fall term? Those long hours of waiting seemed as if they would never end. If you were a freshman, there was the standing in line for a physical, to see your adviser, making out schedules, and paying out money. For the sopho- mores it wasn ' t quite so bad; no physicals were required, which meant one less line to stand in, but everything else w as about the same. And after you finally finished standing in lines you went to look for your locker, only to find it was on the third floor completely isolated from your classes. And with that last cheerful thought in your mind you went home to Wilmington, Lockport, Plainfield, Peotone, Minooka, New Lenox, Morris, Coal City, Yorkville, Manhattan, Crete, Mokena, Frankfort, some other neighboring town, or maybe right in Joliet, to await for the fateful day of Friday when your classes really began. All told, there were 673 of us junior collegians who registered for the fall term at Joliet Junior College. JC students counseling with their advisers and making last minute adjustments on their programs.

After those two nerve-wracking days of register- ing, making out schedules, and get- ting organized in general; it was a welcomed treat both for the students and the faculty to go to the picnic and let off steam. Over 300 students attended the event where they consumed 500 barbecues, 400 bottles of pop, and stacks of other food. After eating, the traditional tug of war between the sophomores and the freshmen was held; it ended with a surprise when the rope broke leaving both sophs and freshies on the ground with in- jured dignities. It was agreed upon by all that the JC fall picnic of 1958 will always re- main as a fond memory. Some of the committee who worked so hard to make the picnic a success are caught by the camera in unusual positions. They are: David Im ig, Jim Monce, Janet Zimmerman, Annette DiLorenzo, Nat Radakovich, Carol Sue Johnson, and Wayne Barnett is balancing in the foreground.

HOMECOMING Smidy Simonelti ' Mary Jran Appletjale HOMECOMING ACTIVITIES A group of JC students seem to be enjoying them- selves at the mixer held in Buchanan Hall after the bonfire. Mr. Waltz was the object of their merri- ment. Some fun??!! Homecoming, 1958, began on a cold Friday night with the traditional bonfire being held at the Collins Street Field. Over one hundred of us junior collegians braved the cold weather to come out and cheer for our team. Wayne Barnett acted as master of ceremonies, and as usual he was hilarious. Coach Herm Walser introduced the football team, and Dean Rowley added his thoughts on homecoming. From the field we all went over to Buchanan Hall, where a mixer was in progress. Pat Barrowman sang a song for us, and Mr. Waltz did some of his ever-popular pantomimes. Then the moment finally arrived that everyone had been waiting for in high suspense. Our Student Council president, Ron Knakmuhs, was given the envelope that held the name of the girl to reign as queen over the 1958 homecoming activities. Diane Isberg, the Vets ' candidate was announced as the winner. Allan Vail looks in wonderment at the three d u m in i a s which mysteriously disappeared during the homecoming queen campaign. HOMECOMING ACTIVITIES Homecoming activities resumed early Saturday morning on the black top as JC students came to work on the floats for the parade. Despite the cold weather the black top was the scene of feverish work all day long, starting bright and early at 8:00 a.m. and never letting up till all floats were completed at 5:30. Main activities oc- cupying the float builders time were sawing, pounding, cutting, hammering, painting, and, of course, stuffing nap- kins. Remember all the scratches and cuts from the chicken wire? Finally, after a day of labor and worry, all floats were finished and ready for judging, which took place shortly before parade time. The ques- tion in everyone ' s mind was who would win. Parade time arrived, and the floats left with a police escort for the stadium and the football game. The chilled procession got to the field with only a few minor mishaps, just in time to cheer the foot- T)iane Isbeni Queen ball team as they entered the field. At half-time ceremonies, Ron Knakmuhs, Student Council president, crowned Diane Isberg queen and introduced her court. The presentation of all the floats followed as they went around the track, and then the winners were an- nounced. JC Players and Choir shared first place honors and received the applause of the homecoming crowd. With half-time ceremonies ending, the football game was continued and the JC Wolves lost to LaSalle-Peru-Ogles- by with a score of 1 3-7. The homecoming dance was held in the girls ' gym at the school. Queen Diane cut the victory cake with the as- sistance of Joe Gariboldi, football captain. As the last song was played and home- coming ended, all work and trouble was forgotten and only pleasant memories of a wonderful time remained — Homecoming 1958. The Top One of the floats that tied for first place honors was the entry by JC Play- ers. The eighteen-foot-tall billboard listed the Wolves as the Twenty-six Angry Men. Besides being the tallest item in the parade, it also was unique in that it could be collapsed in order to go through underpasses. Bob Almasy, Pat Ward, Jeanne Williams and Bruce Binder, members of JC Players, rode on the float.— CONGRATULATIONS!!! The other float that tied for first place honors was constructed by the Choir. The large gold-and-blue trumpet depicted that we would Blow Them Down! An interesting attraction about the float was the fact that a small combo rode on it and played popular jazz num- bers throughout the course of the JC Player ' s float tied for parade.-CONGR ATULATIONS ! ! first place in the homecom- ing parade. SMOKER and LOUNGE Wi th free time on our hands, where did we JC students go to spend it? There were many places where we might have been found, — the library, cafeteria or in the halls, but two of the most popular spots proved to be the smoker and the lounge. At any time of the day, from early in the morn- ing to the end of the last period, loud voices and a radio blasting the latest rock J n roll tunes through a thick haze of smoke set the typical scene of the smoker. Remember the mad dash to the smoker for a quick cigarette between classes? Or the old friend who always appeared to bum a cigarette from you, managing to take your last one. Second semester found a new addition to the smoker. A coke machine was installed by the Student Council and proved to be successful. Many contented minutes were spent in the lounge, either doing homework or just listening to Hi-Fi music. It became a haven for all who wanted to escape the rigid routine of school life. At any time at least one of our junior collegians could be found stretched out full length enjoying a quick ten minute nap before his next class. In addition to the weekly Student Council meetings, many of the other clubs made use of the lounge for their meet- ings. These two places were, indeed, an important part of our life at Junior College and will join our many other pleasant memories that will never be forgotten. FALL FORMAL The chilly evening of November 28, 1958, ushered in the annual fall formal, this year entitled Blues in the Night. The Joliet Junior College scored another hit by having Louis Armstrong, the fabulous and world-famous jazz artist, provide the musical tones. Upon entering, couples were greeted by eye catch- ing decorations which carried out the theme in detail. Silhouettes of jazz men and buildings covered the walls, while in the middle of the false ceiling hung a sparkling Pictured above are Wavne Barnett and George Hendrick diligently working on the revolving platform which provided a unique setting for Louie Armstrong and his All-Stars.

The theme was further carried out by using different shades of blue as background material. Satchmo was showcased in the center of the combined gyms atop a revolving platform decorated so as to typify a traditional American jazz group in action. None of us will ever forget the tremendous show put on by Louie and his All-Stars as they blasted through the night with jumping musical vibrations. So ended one of the greatest fall formals in the annals of the Joliet Junior College. At the right couples are enjoying refresh- ments which were served during the even- ing of the dance. CHRISTMAS PARTIES Bruce Rungaitis, caught by while doing his hula dance. As December finally rolled around on the calendar Joliet Junior College students began to think in terms of vacation and parties. Two of the parties that proved to be the most popular were the ones sponsored by the Business Club and the Social Council. Bruce Rungaitis served as chairman of the Associated Business Students ' event which was held at Marquette Hall. The hall was decorated with a typical Christmas theme and the entertain- ment consisted of dancing, refreshments, and a program which proved to be quite hilarious. Bruce entertained everyone with his special adaption of a genuine hula dance. The other party given December 19 at Buchanan Hall by the Social Council had Pat Ward and Jack Lambakis as general chairmen. After dancing and group singing a program was pre- sented which was highlighted by a visit from the three chipmunks singing their hit recording. Santa Claus made a surprise entrance and brought ap- propriate gifts to some of the deserving JC students who had written him letters. These two parties and the many others that were held all helped to make Christmas at Joliet funior College a memorable one! Santa Clans (played by Ron Knakmuhs) dropped in and surprised everyone with a cheery Ho! Ho! Ho! and MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL.

Les Goldstein NEW YEAR ' S EVE DANCE The Freshman class again sponsored the an- nual New Year ' s Eve dance which was held this year in the combined gyms. Approximately 500 couples came to welcome in the New Year by at- tending the dance. Buddy Everett ' s orchestra pro- vided the musical background for the enchanted couples as they dreamily whirled their way through the evening. As the magic hour of mid- night arrived, the whole gym was transformed into a wild scene of confetti and confusion as hundreds of bright colored balloons floated down from above the dancers. With a bit of sadness we said goodbye to 1958 and its good times, and all its troubles were forgotten with the arrival of the new year. Nine- teen fifty-nine began with new hope for a bright future and more fun to come. Joan Shepley, Irwin Mann, Connie DuBois, and Miss Wood, seated in front, plan the New Year ' s Eve dance. W.AL. CHRISTMAS TEA W.A.L. gave their first annual Mother-Daughter Tea for the members and their mothers. In previous years the tea had been presented as one of the W.A.A. projects, but since the organiza- tion was terminated this year the job was taken over by the newly formed W.A.L. The tea was held in the dance studio, which was decorated appropriately along the Christmas theme. Donna Line wel- comed all the mothers and daughters present and introduced the program which consisted of Christmas selections by the JC Choir, under the direction of Dr. Hal Dellinger. Following the program, refreshments were served. Thus ended another ac- tivity enjoyed by JC students. Mrs. William Zimmerman and daughter, Jan, are being served by Mrs. E. W. Rowley, and pictured below are some of the offi- cers ' mothers: Mrs. John Line, Mrs. Donald Johnson, Mrs. Bernard Ward, and Mrs. Albert Clark. SKI Jim Agazzi, Rosemary Ariagno, Bruce Rungaitis, Nat Rada- kovich, JoAnn Ulrick, Bev Berta, and Donna Line are shown here on the bus as it carried them up to Iron Moun- tain. Part of the JC group that went skiing for a week end, as they looked just before boarding the bus to leave. IRON MOUNTAIN OR BUST! — with these challenging words, a merry group of thirty Joliet Junior College students set off for a week end of skiing and fun at Iron Mountain, Michigan. As the final bell rang ending semester exams, the would- be skiers and sponsor, Mr. Bondar, loaded suitcases and equipment on a bus and pre- pared to trade the level Joliet terrain for the hilly, mountainous scene of Michi- gan ' s Upper Peninsula. Early Saturday morning found the skiers some- what bewildered but bravely buckling on their skis at the bottom of famous Pine Mountain. All the ex- perts said the skiing conditions were ideal, but then who out of the group was an expert? After much hesitation the skiers began slipping and sliding their way down the slopes; by midday there was boasting and some of the over-confident JC wolves decided to try their skill (or should I say skis?) on the steeper slopes. By some miracle all made it safely through the first day of skiing and were ready for an evening of ice skating, tobogganing, dancing, or any one of numerous activities offered. Mr. Bondar, the sponsor, and Ted Latz chat outside the motel just before leaving for a day of skiing and fun. This happy group was caught eating a hearty breakfast one fine early morning. Jim Agazzi, Carole Johnson, Nat Rada- kovich, George Hendricks, and Jan Zimmerman make up the smiling group of five. TRIP Nat Radakovich and Jim Agazzi were caught in a typical position as they ■ fell for the forty-second time while at- i % tempting to climb a hill. Sunday morning dawn- ed brightly, but much too early for most of the tired and sore junior collegians. Somehow we all managed to limp out of the motel to the bus which again delivered us at the bottom of Pine Moun- tain. Although many muscles were strained and bruised, we all were veterans now and bravely headed for the rope tows or chair lifts which carried us to the top of the mountain. The time finally came when we had to say fare- well to Pine Mountain and start the journey back to Joliet. The group that dragged on the bus wasn ' t the same as the group that had left; this group was tired and sore, but very happy in the knowledge that the memory of skiing on Pine Mountain and the closer friendships that were formed would last through the years. After buckling on her skis outside the Chalet, Pat Ward bravely prepares to approach the rope tow and ascend the mountain. JoAnn Ulrick, Nat Radakovich, and Jan Zimmerman are inside the ski lodge adjusting their equipment before challeng- ing Pine Mountain. John Muncy, critically surveys a map of the different slopes trying to decide which one he will conquer next. 3 ONE-ACTS or Mr. Mallary congratulates Jeanne Williams, student director of The Terrible Meek, which was one of the three one-act plays presented by the JC Players. Mary Lou Fletcher and Annette DiLorenzo look on. The JC Players, with the able assistance of Mr. Robert Mallary, presented their annual Three One- Act plays, again this year. The student directors and the plays chosen were as follows: Jeanne Williams directing the Terrible Meek; Carol Clark directing Overtones; and James Padley directing The Fish- erman. Tryouts were held and talent was canvassed from the whole student body. Competition for parts was keen and after much discussion and thought the casts were selected for the plays and all settled down to a strict routine of re- hearsals. The weeks leading up to opening night were filled with much hard work, but finally the nervous actors took their places and the curtain went up. As usual there was no need to worry, for again the JC Players scored another hit with three memorable performances. Thus another activity took its place in the annals of JJC dramatic history. One of the many hilarious scenes from Overtones, directed by Carol Clark. Here the haughty innerselves of Sharon Rumchak and Barb Dunn, played by Janet Briese and Karen Boland, have an argument over a handsome man. MISCELLANEOUS ACTIVITIES Traffic congestion in our halls.
