IN MEMORIAM 1 H LGWELI. EUGENE TAYLOR MARCH 28, 1928 APRIL 16, 1945 His ideas were associated with every charm of nature, we hear his voice in the echo which he once delighted to wakeng his spirit haunts the grove which he once frequented, we think of him in the wild upland solitude or amidst the pensive beauty of the valley. In the freshness of joyous morning, we remember his beaming smiles and bounding gayetyg and when sober evening returns with its gathering shadows and subduing quiet, We call to mind many a twilight hour of gentle talk and sweet- souled melancholy. Each lonely place shall him restore For him the tear be duly shed Beloved, till life can charm no more And mourned till ourself be dead. -Washington Irving Page Twenty-four

DEDICATION RICHARD CHARLES I-ILINDLEV November, 1944, brought a loss to the Class of '46 and a gain to the U. S. Army, for it was then that Red Hundley received his Greetings from the President. His position as tackle on the football team was a hard one to fill, because Red was a coach's ideal lineman. He proved his value to the team in the DuQuoin-Pinckneyville battle of '44. The expression around school Was: Red,s in the Army, so the War Won't last long now. At the present, Red is doing occupation duty on Mindanao, P. I. He is taking high school courses, hoping to return to school and receive his diploma. The Class of '46 takes this opportunity to Wish Red the very best of luck, with the hope that he' will soon be back home, attending P.C.H.S., and helping us defeat the Indians. Page Twenty-three
