Will these football fans show their grandchildren a faded piece of the red and black crepe paper which had decorated the goal posts ,way back in '48 when East beat West, by cracky!'? 4. Enthusiastic Rab supporters roar or shriek, depending upon their gen- der, applaud or groan depending upon the action on the football field. 5. Got the right mittens? Stadium boots? These basketball devotees are homeward bound, with ears which still echo the din that had been produced by their now weak, rasping voices. 6. jims Bailey and Northrup co-operate to take one of PSPO's inimitable photographs.

FE E JX 59 'X E31 avg MH ty .Administration PARMER L. EWING, Superintendent Heading the Board of Education as the Superintendent of Schools is Parmer L. Ewing. His job is exceedingly important because he must constantly be on the alert for new ideas by which our educa- tional program might be improved. He is the main executive of the Rockford school system and is therefore directly responsible to the Board of Education for the eiiiciency of all departments and offices of the various schools. Another of his duties is making sure that the condition of the schools is good and that they are being operated correctly. Leading East High School in its daily routine of activities is our principal, Mr. Harry C. Muth. His duties are many in keeping the school in running order and in maintaining a spirit of cooperation among both students and faculty members. Among other things he has charge of planning and leading the assembly programs and directing all faculty meetings. Always willing to give his help to both students and teachers, he untiringly renders all types of serv- ices towards the betterment of our school. HARRY C, MUTH, Principal Concerning itself with the provision of the essential principles of good education for every boy and girl, the Board of Education is constantly meeting with new problems while conducting the affairs of the school system. In order for it to more effectively find solu- tions to these many problems, the Board has been divided into three committees. The Educational Committee hires teachers and all other employees, and the Building and Grounds Committee has charge cf repairing and keeping up the appearance of all schools. Approving the purchases of supplies, keeping financial records, and planning the yearly budget are the duties of the Financial and Purchasing Committee. The members of the Board of Education are people appointed by the Mayor who are willing to give both time and energy for bettering our cityis educational program.

HAZEL KOCH RUTH ANN WHITE Senior Adviser JL1I1i0r Adviser The duties of Miss Hazel Koch, senior class adviser and teacher of English, are both many and varied. Perhaps her biggest task throughout the year is checking individually each senior's program, including the majors, minors, and credits. She helps in selecting the class play and in planning the prom, the mixer, and all other senior activities. ln all of these she tries to arrange it so that every student will have a chance to take a part. Meetings between repre- sentatives of various colleges and seniors who are interested in those colleges are also planned by Miss Koch. Another of her duties is consulting with the pupil, the family, the teacher involved, or the employer about the failure notices a student receives. Finally, she takes care of measuring every senior for his cap and gown and supervises all the commencement activities for the class. Miss Ruth White, English teacher and junior class adviser, concerns herself with helping all juniors to have a happy and successful school year. She not only checks the credits, majors, and minors, CATHARINE NEEDHAM Sophomore Adviser and all subjects elected by the juniors, but she also plans the par- ents' night and helps direct the Junior Prom, their play, and their informal mixer. Besides this Miss White serves as adviser for the National Honor Society and so each year plans and arranges the very impressive National Honor Assembly. One of East High School's music teachers, Miss Catherine Need- ham, is also the sophomore class adviser and serving in that capac- ity gives her a very interesting as well as busy schedule. Helpful aids in arranging majors and minors are found in the Kruder Preference Test which measures interest areas and gives a survey of the subjects offered at East. Planning social activities, partici- pation in class committees for the sophomore party, sophomore honor group, parents' night, and Christmas decorations are just a few of the ways in which Miss Needham helps to adjust sopho- mores to the social groups. As Dean of Boys, Mr. Harry W. Kroll, East High's assistant prin- cipal, has a large group of activities for which he is responsible. Checking the irregular list and the attendance records, giving per- WINIFRED LEDGER Dean of Girls Besides teaching in the Social Studies department, Miss Ledger also serves as dean for all of the East High girls. Her duties as such are many and varied, but they serve to make her job an interesting one. Checking both attendance records and the irregular lists are two things which ,take a great deal of her time each day. Along with this she also issues late admits to those coming tardy to classes, supervises the ROTC sponsors, and gives both help and advice to anyone who is in need of it. Likewise, all of the various school activities must be scheduled by Miss Ledger. In addition to rendering all these services, she also willingly gives much of her time to chaperoning many of the school parties and proms. sonal and helpful guidance to those boys who need it, adjusting the sizes of all of the classes, and assigning lockers to everyone in school are but a few of his many duties. He also arranges for all of East High's competitive sports and contests. Mr. Kroll, like all of our other executives, is always willing to give both his time and service toward furthering our school spirit and activities.

GERALD DON ALD WISNER YVOI-D CLARA rom AUDREY wo1.rENsPERGeR wooowomn ZIMMERMAN Acting as guiding angel for the senior class again this year was Miss Hazel Koch. Shown here advising Carolyn Wagoner about her second semester electives, Miss Koch has discussed with each senior his prob- lems and ambitions, and has aided the class officers in planning all class meetings and activities, such as Par- ent's Night, the Senior Mixer, Sen- ior Tea, and the graduation exer- cises. In Memoriam Early last fall, before she had a chance to experience fully the exciting sensations of hcr senior year Fiyc Kimpcl died Her death was sudden, unexpected. One day she stopped sharing the classes the lunchtime chatter the foot ball games. That was all. While we have to grow out of these happy care-free school days, Faye lxntw nothing clsc Sht tnloycd her tl isses at Morris Kennedy, Lincoln junior high, and East high. Her eleven school years were good ones for Fiye and her youth was happy. We can remember her that way. .Iuninrs Enjn ed flntinq UPPER RIGHT: Three little maids in typical school garb. 1948-49 was really a season for long skirts and sweaters, as charmingly demon- strated by Mary Schwartz, Grace Nappi, and Mary Ann james. UPPER LEFT: What, ho! a joker in the crowd'lDick Greenland, in clown costume, with six sleepy sisters, Dick Loy, and Harvey Zeidenstein all in the Junior play cast. CENTER LEFT: Only in the play Seven Sisters could solitaire be so fascinating: Carolyn Wallin, Rose Snider, Nancy Harris, and Shirley Smith seem to hnd the game remarkably interesting. LOWER LEFT: East may well have some Miltons and Byrons in its class of '5O. Verna Wallin, Norma Jean Clapper, Corinne Palmer, John Evans, and Nancy Johnson receive awards for their original poetry-and good too-from Miss Adele johnson, English instructor. LOWER RIGHT: Physics instructor Mr. john Reschlein's theory is that nothing is as effective as graphic demonstration. junior physicists Ronnie Anderson, Ted Peterson, Roger Milligan, and Tommy Sheetz find few things more amusing than watching Mr. R. hoist himself into the air by means of a block and tackle. UPPER LEFT: Hey, you---got troubles? Need help? Miss Ruth White, junior adviser, solves scholastic problems for the class of '50, as Roger Stelma and Jeanne Stang have learned. UPPER RIGHT: Of course it'll be good, the best junior play in years, would you like to buy a ticket? asks Rose Snider at junior-Senior Parent's Night. Most students at East High have little room for anything in their wallets except bunches of tickets for school affairs. CENTER RIGHT: Say, you'd be a swell villain, l'll bet! Hc:w'd l do as the romantic lead? Harvey Zeidenstein, Roger Harmon, Evelyn lN'lagnuson, Imogene Lindberg, and Annabelle LaRose ponder scripts for junior play tryouts.

E., we can be in the same English class. Second semester program cards pose a problem for sophomores Dave Kjell and Mercedes Joles. Having barely learned the location of their first semester classes, they again have to figure out where the rooms start numbering and if the numbers go clockwise or counter-clockwise around the corridors. UPPER LEFT: Kuder Vocational Preference Tests, remembered by every sophomore as a thick blue book through which he punched myriads of tiny holes to designate his answer to such questions as: Would you rather design a nuclear fission machine, write the great American epic, or compose a beau- tiful symphony? are a help in advising Sophs as to what course they would find most enjoyable and beneficial. CENTER LEFT: Sophomores Diane Seers, Ronnie Craig, and Jean Murray would find choosing their high school courses tough going, were it not for Miss Catherine Needham, who advises them. LOWER LEFT: Intrepid is the word for these sophomore zoologists, ugh! How on earth do Roger Holmstrom, Arlene Swanson, Dale Anderson, and Charles Bergquist manage to hold the squirming, slippery reptiles in their hands without flinching? LOWER RIGHT: Junior debate members and former sophomore class oiiicers look over a floor plan of the school while rehearsing for Sophomore Parent's Night. The job of each speaker was to acquaint the parents with some phase of East High's curriculum.

CENTER RIGHT: Ho-hum, more politics at East High! Presenting sophomore class president, Jerry Patterson, vice-president, Jack Thornton, treasurer, George Sheefo, and secretary, Nancy Goodin. LOWER RIGHT: Deck the halls with boughs of holly, needs almost no correction to suit East's yuletide decoration. Perhaps deck the sophomore study hall with a Christmas tree!

U Amfiaaxwguv me 5 Bljers Sacrifice Praise in Initiation Fun With egg-smeared faces and arms, blindfolded, and down on their overall-clad knees, fifty girls crawled their way into ABL membership during the fall initiation this year. These girls, having an A or B average in English, had previously re- ceived a little book inviting them to become members in this honorary literary club. Under the advisership of Miss Elizabeth McGuire, the club used its meetings on the first Tuesday of each month to fur- ther interest and understanding in literature and drama. Such programs as a book review on Peony by Mrs. Howard Bertrand, and the annual trip to Chicago, via Greyhound bus, to see a good play made this aim a thoroughly enjoyable one to follow. At Christmas time, the model apartment was dec- orated for a party at which the new members entertained the oldtimers with a piano recital and refreshments. ABL credits its substantial treasury to dues and money made at their annual dance given this year in February. The Story- book Ball was a highly successful affair. A large attendance enjoyed dancing under a pink and blue crepe paper ceiling and inspecting Little Red Riding Hood, Humptey Dumptey, and the Cock Horse. Officers for the first semester were: jeannien Gustavison, presidentg Marilyn Molander, vice-president: Dolly Borden, secretary, and Priscilla Redin, treasurer.

Ehnir Enjn ed Ehantinq Lucia Eve Ilarnls A Cappella isn't just another singing organization at East Highg it is one of the things East stands for. It is not only the group of singers that benefit from this musical variety but all those who listen to them. Throughout the year choir sings for various organizations, Teachers, Institute, and at Christmas combines with the West high A Cappella choir to give a concert with the Civic Sym- phony orchestra. At East, the choir sings for National Honor, Baccalaureate, and the Christmas programs. Also every spring the group gives its own concert, one of the main events of the year. This years choir has 55 members, all of whom have worked hard to make A Cappella a successful group while donned in their wine colored robes. Now you may think that choir is all work and no play, but this definitely is not true. You see, now and then parties are given for them and they have their own banquet. Especially around Christmas time there is a great deal of activity circling around A Cappella. lt has never yet failed that on Lucia Night shortly before Christmas the songsters are heard carol- ing in different sections of Rockford until the wee hours of the morning.

Cheerfully working away at measuring the senior pictures are these i seldom-heard-from Gussie people, the indispensable adviser and art editor, Miss Marie Johnson and Donald Sandstrom. JANET X. ANDERSON Edifnr-iff-Chief Gussie Kills Became If you ever hear the moan, Oh, why did I go out for publi- cations?', you'll know that you have come across an Argus worker. Usually this specie of human nature can be found in a boiling hurry but in a reasonably good humor. The groans appear when, after half an hour of arranging, the poor soul has stepped back so that the photographer can snap his group picture only to find that there aren't any flash bulbs. There is also the chance of taking the wrong notes from one's pocket and reading off the ROTC copy instead of one's book report. And theres the danger of throwing the money order away and keeping the envelope when figuring up the advertis- ing, but these are mere details. Too often, however, people are led to believe that yearbook making is really all work and dull work at that. In reality there are probably few other school activities that demand more diversified talents and energy. It involves anything from designing to detective tactics including trips to cover com- panies and press conferences which add to the general hilarity. There are problems to be ironed out and a great deal of energy is used on wishing the book were finished, but when the last job is done the staff finds itself wishing there was something to do around heref' LOWER LEFTEWork covering a major part of the book was under the direction of these girls.

East Hiqh's Hand Hu s ln their familiar red and white uniforms the band may be seen adding spirit to football games, basketball games, parades and many other school activities. Aside from the swing and march tempo, however, East Highs band Lll'lLlCf the direction of Mr. Allen Elmquist is famous for the serious composition programs they perform, for here is a well- rounded organization. A spring treat for the boys is the annual band member picnic where the waving baton and horns are traded in for a swinging bat and ball, and everyone concentrates on such serious things as cokes, hot dogs, and potato chips. During the Hrst semester the band plays mostly at football and basket- ball games. Starting with the football season the blackboard of 319 is covered with puzzles composed of letters, symbols and other forms of various shapes and sizes. These are the formations that appear during the half-time of the home games. At these performances the players are assisted by drum major, Bud Lenz, and majorettes, Marcy Hirtz, Virginia Blades, Nadine Lundberg, and Myrtle Justison-this year all sophomores-who add a little extra sparkle to the organization. A combined performance and social event was enjoyed when the band made a trip out of town this year to the Freeport-East Rockford game at Freeport and presented some formations and a program at the half. All civic parades require the performance of these musicians who march and play along with other high school bands whether it's in the beat- ing sun, wet sleet, or perfectly normal weather. When the basketball season begins, this same group of boys gather in the balcony overlooking the gym and give out with everything from BACK ROW: Malmgren, Brunner, Sacona, N. Erickson, Mr. Elmquist.

Purely on the side, the seats nearest the railing are supposed to go to the seniors on the age superiority basis. It doesn't always work though, retort senior members. An addition to the loyalty songs of East High played at these affairs came from Mr. Elmquist this year with the writing of Rise and Shine. It was introduced at the pep rally preceding the East-West football game. Along about the end of the semester the band forgets about modern tempo and begins in earnest to prepare some really good music for the serious programs coming up. This year the band accompanied the choirs at the Christmas assembly given for all students and any adults who wished to attend during the morning assemblies of the week pre- ceding Christmas. Also along the serious line is the annual sacred concert always per- formed at a local church. This was given in March at Zion Lutheran Church in the accustomed afternoon and evening programs. The big spring concert in East's auditorium was held this year on April 24 to give the parents a chance to see what the band had accomplished during the year. The school band assembly preceded this concert by a week. To end the yearls duties in grand style the band provided the music at the Memorial Day service at school and played for the Baccalaureate service. The orchestra and band rotate playing for Commencement exercises and Baccalaureate. First semester officers were: Ronnie Lindvall, presidentg Bob Hubbell, vice-presidentg Ty Swanberg, secretary, Bud Lenz, treasurer.

But it was just Charlemos, the Spanish club, having una fiesta or translated, a party. They were playing a number game in Spanish and getting-oh, so confused. New members were initiated at this meeting. They had to dance the rhumba blindfolded, while the old members sang Spanish songs. When the music stopped, they were forced to grope around for a new partner. After they had slimy things put into their hands and dried apricots forced into their mouths, the initiates were fed soggy noodles. Having been told that these were various parts of a dead cat, the really harmless morsels of food did not go down too easily. But finally Mrs. Ola Bogen, club adviser, took pity on them and gave them permission to join the rest in eating tasty doughnuts and apples. One of the main projects of the club this year was a sale of small gift articles made by members to bol- ster the group's treasury. Sally Lindblom acted as president, Pat Apitz, vice- presidentg Esther Doxey, secretary, and Juanice Lamb, treasurer. Ever Du a Fulk Dance? Yes Sir!

No, you aren't in Russia, it's just the East High Dance group swinging into action at 3:30. Every Wednesday and Friday you will find twenty active students in a half poohed out attitude kicking their feet wildly as Mr. Linden Lundstrom calls out the various steps of a square dance. Yes, it really is complicated at times especially as one tries to get into the correct anchoring position for Weave the Wadmill. Now and then the girl whose partner feels unusually peppy Cwhich is most of the timeb finds herself in a somewhat ruffled state from being whirled about in such a dance as the Russian Kolimeka. Somehow or other these lads think it quite amusing to try to give their gals just a little faster spin than the other fellow is giving his. Thus you have every one trying to go just a little faster than the other and you Hnally end up not only dizzy, but in a very weak-kneed state. So on it goes for at least an hour or so. Ah, yes, there is no rest for the dancer. Dance group has a number of engagements through- out the year many of which are out of town. ABOVE: Typical of every music group at East High is the secretary's daily job of writing the songs to be sung on the board. RIGHT: One way the Glee club practices is to make recordings so that they may hear their own mistakes better and learn to correct them. Ifilet-: Favnred adriqals Glee clubs were first started in the olden days when glee men or minstrels went from place to place for their own enjoyment and for the pleasure of others. You would find that the same idea is still carried out today if you were to pass 215 during sixth hour. The members of Senior Glee sing mostly for their enjoyment, but each year they par- ticipate in the Christmas assemblies and the operetta. The senior glee was started in 1940 by Mr. Linden Lundstrom, better known as Lindy, when East High was opened. Since, it has grown to be one of the most popular music groups for boys and girls. Modern radio arrangements and old English madrigals are the favorites of this years group. Madrigals aren't new, but originated in Shakespeaies time. Then they were sung after dinner instead of play- ing bridge or knitting. If one could not sing his own part successfully, he was a failure. for each singer sang a differ- ent part to complete the total effect. In modern music, Fred Wz1ring's radio arrangements are popular with the group. Ofncers were Dorothy John- son, Bob Aden, Mary Lou johnson, and Pat Plukas as president, vice-president, sec- retary, and treasurer, respec- tively. TOP ROW: M. Baucome.

Hi-Y isitetl Stale Senate To create, maintain, and extend throughout the school and community high standards of Christian character is the purpose of the Hi-Y, stated Mr. Howard Hansis, the club adviser. Among the several important activities was a visit to the state senate in Springfield at which East was represented by a number of delegates. East also sent delegates to the state conference in Oak Park at which members from Hi-Y clubs all over Illinois met. Another highlight of the 48-49 club was the annual dance on December 18. This was held at the Y's lodge just off of North Second Street. The club, which meets every other Tuesday, sponsored several fellowship nights during the year. At these fellowships the members had the pool and the gym at their disposal. Because of the graduation of the seniors the club's main is- sue for the fall program was a drive for new members. About 30 candidates were initiated and inducted into the club. The officers were jerry Ash- ley, president, Bud Snyder, vice-president, Don Ritchie, secretary, Tom Frawley, treas- urer, and Bob Hubbell, chap- lain.

To study soil conditions, crop rota- tion, birds, hazardous bugs and insects, or any other topic of interest in the held of science, the students meet every other Thurs- day in room 523 under the enthusiastic guid- ance of Mr. Lamont Clikeman. A Tree in the Meadow which was this yearls slogan for the initiation is the very project that the club has undertaken. Al- though the conservation forest was really started by the originators of the club back in '46 when they received the land from the Board of Education, they added new timber to it this year. Some of the members ventured out to Camp Grant to take their pick of the healthiest of the young pine trees. After they had planted them in their own lot, the club felt that they had done something which following con- servants could continue and enjoy. This years officers are Meredith Thom, presi- dent: Roger Harmon, vice-president, Carol Hagaman, treasurer, and Irene Wersin, secretary. i 96 . 'sul 'U Uuverte Levee?

Next comes thefun. French songs, games and skits are com- bined to contribute to a better expression and understanding of the language. Sometimes there are refreshments. First semester officers were president, Marcia Anderson, vice- president, Ginger Skoogg secretary, Charlotte Arnquistg and treasurer, Roger Beckett. First string debaters gather 'round with their mentor, Mr. Gov Burlend, to discuss a recent word battle. Left to right: Mr. Burlend, Avis Johnson, Roger Harmon, Mary Lou Carter, and Mary Weber. This year's individual speakers were preparing for the sectional tilt held this season at East High when this group was photo- graphed. In the usual order are Mary Carter, Harvey Zeiden- stein, Lowell Pearson, Avis Johnson, Dick Malmgren, and Mahlon Burbank. East Cups Third in Speech Sectional We of the affirmative maintain that-. We of the nega- tive contend-. No, it isnit a new language class or a course in writing speeches. lt is simply the debate team prac- ticing for an important tournament. This year's question Resolved: that the United Nations now be revised into a federal world government gave the team members an added impetus to study world affairs. Often around the lunch table during a tournament the discussion would center around how the mornings headlines had af- fected the two cases. The first tourney of the season at Geneseo high school caused happy smiles not only on Coach V. Burlend's face but on every team member's countenance as well, for winning the year's first meet meant a lot. Placing third in the Big Eight conference meet at Freeport, the varsity squad went on to again place third in the state sectional tournament. Augustana! The very word brings joy to the heart of every debater, for this two-day tournament means an overnight trip to Rock Island and a chance to meet twelve of the thirty or more schools represented there. The team tied for eighth place with a 7-5 record. Participating in the Lake Forest college invitational tourney March 19, East's team took second place, receiving a certificate of recognition. Professor Schlipp of Northwestern Univer- sity, a world government enthusiast, was the guest speaker at the luncheon following the morning rounds. Professor Schlipp, who is a well-known lecturer and philosopher, pointed out the crises in the world today and offered world government as the solution. Following the presentation of the certificates after the final round, debaters from East, West, New Trier, Waukegan, and Niles were guests of the college speech cle- partment at a tea. Since all work and no play is not a motto of the team, time is found during the year for social activities as well. The annual Christmas party and the spring picnic are the high- lights of the side of debating. ' .

After somewhat of a baffling pro- cess they emerge with stacks of papers and tear down the hall. What has happened? just another issue of the High- lights has come out. But those papers don't just slip mys- teriously into 202 each Friday morning. No, thereis more to it than that. First it was nothing but typed papers here and there, faith- fully turned in by staff reporters, after this they were handled, read, headlined, and read again by Editors johnson and Carter, Feature Editor Stoner, Clubs Editor Molander, and Sports Editors Cowlishaw and Lemke. Finally, by 5:30 Monday night they were sent to the typesetter and came back Wednesday morning in the form of galleys which were proofread, cut, pasted, and marked exactly as they were to appear in the final copy along with the ads so faithfully gathered each week by Ad Manager Clara Wolfensperger and her assistants. Again Wednesday night the copy took another trip downtown to the printer, returning as finished papers Thursday night to be folded and stacked by Circula- tion Managers Frankenberg and Aldeen and their staff, ready to go out to their readers on Friday morning. Thus goes the story of the East Highlightsas it completed an- other year of service to its readers.

The members of this service organization assist you by checking out books, writing fine slips, giving you books and magazines which are kept in the reserve room, and issuing library cards. The members of this club usually meet for the sole purpose of working, but about three parties are held at school during the year. If ever in doubt about an author, you might find your information in a scrapbook of authors kept by the girls. The information is taken from book jackets and collected for future reference. Besides doing this, the girls shellac books, keep the card catalogue up to date, and shelve books. The only male member of this club is a fat little Dutchman named Dirk. He is in reality a cookie jar and is continually reached into for a delicious morsel. Each member is responsible for bringing cookies for Dirk on a prescribed date. With Miss Eleanor Heuver as adviser, the ofhcers were: Juanice Lamb, president, Beverly Munson, vice-president, Muriel Tanner, secretary, Charlene Marshall, treasurer, and Barb Fairgrieve, social- chairman. JHII Sent Delegates te Summer Camps Wanted: Toys, washcloths, soap, needles, thread, tooth brushes, paper, pencils, and other much-needed articles for war-torn Europe's children. This familiar notice was read in East High's homerooms during the past year in a drive to fill gift boxes abroad. Each student in the school donated either money or some of these items. Homeroom representatives bought gifts with the money which was contributed. 41 boxes were filled and sent overseas in time for Christmas. Under the direction of Miss Vera Hunter, a membership drive was sponsored in November. Most of the money was used to help the less fortunate children of Europe. The half-pint bottles with the Red Cross label in every East High homeroom last fall served their purpose well in collecting 315457. The club, besides doing its splendid work, sponsored a Red Cross technicolor training camp movie on Novem- ber third. These camps help senior high school students prepare for future Red Cross work. Two girls, Pat Lund- vall and Carolyn Brandt sent to camps last summer learned much about health, sports, and helping others. Not all the efforts of the club were devoted to foreign countries, many services are performed in our own region. The group gives some money to the childrens home and sends gifts to the boys in the armed forces. Their purpose is to help those who need help. Meeting once a month, the representatives gather to make sug- gestions for donations for those who need help. The club gathers clothes for those poor families who have fear of freezing during the winter months. Old sweaters coats, dresses, and scarves can be cleaned or fixed to fit some person who needs them badly. Calling the meetings to order was Carolyn Brandt, presi- dent, assisted by Pat Lundvall, vice-president, Martha Ramsey, secretary, and Robert H. Carlson, who served as treasurer. LOWER RIGHT: K.

Prnclnr Lad Engineers at Plant Trips The major purpose of the junior Engineers is to develop a cleaner understanding of engineering as a vocation by bringing information to the membership from the engineering field, stated Walter Boguski, the club adviser. A secondary purpose of this club, which is officially known as the East junior Engineering Society, is to provide an opportunity for closer fellowship among students who are interested in en- gineering. As in past years, an out-of-town trip was planned for the second semester. The two places to be chosen from were Nash Company plant at Racine, Wisconsin, and the Museum of Science and Industry in Chicago. The boys were to have visited several com- panies in Rockford. The Bell Telephone Company, National Lock, L. Clark company, and Sunstrand Machine Tool company were the ones to be chosen from. The purpose of visiting these places was to learn about the different types of engineering. The junior Engineers, who meet every Tuesday night after school in room 128, require that those eligible for membership have a concrete background of higher mathematics and physical and industrial sciences. An applicant for membership must be rec- ommended by his faculty adviser and three other teachers. After being voted on, all boys who qualify are then notified. The first semester officers were Don Proctor, president, Roger Jones, vice-president, Tom Woodworth, secretary, Bud Nielcen, treasurer, and Ed Von Driska, sergeant-at-arms.

The members of Publications Staff Photographers Organization have exercised plenty of patience this year, while, under the wise direction of Mr. Harvey Anderson, they have been busy taking all Argus and Highlights candid shots.

Around the first of May each year the top ranking students of the junior and senior classes of East high school are inducted into National Honor Society during an impressive assembly. At this assembly it is customary for the girls to wear white dresses. Sophomores who were in the sophomore honor group first semester and who placed on the honor roll second semes- ter, second quarter, usher at this assembly. The parents of the students who are inducted into the organization receive special invitations to one of the double assemblies. The main speakers are Mt.

The choice is based upon observations of his stu- dent classmates and teachers. The purpose of this society, as announced by its founder, is to create an enthusiasm for scholarship, to stimulate a desire to render service, encourage worthy leadership, and to develop character in the pupils of the schools in which a chapter exists. The National Honor Society was founded by Mr. Edward Rynearson of Pittsburg, Pennsylvania, who was also its first president in 1919, although the organization did almost noth- ing until 1922. Its constitution was written and adopted in 1921 in Atlantic City, New jersey. Only a few chapters existed TOP: Self-explanatory is the word for these words and the torches that flank them. Familiar to every member of National Honor Society, they epitomize the whole organiza- tion. ABOVE: Elected honorary oflicers for the class of 1949, Susie Stoner, Beverly Carlson, and Bill Rudelius filled the positions of vice president, secretary, and president, respectively. at the very beginning, but there are now over 3,300 chapters in large and small cities in every state of the union. For many years athletics and debating societies received the lion's share of the attention and publicity in high school activities. The athlete and debater were the school's heroes. There was little honor left for those not so favorably endowed with muscular strength and dexterity or with oratorical apti- tude. The hardworking pupil who kept to his books and as- sumed the real leadership in later life received comparatively little recognition and encouragement during his school days. For this reason the National Honor Society was founded to give recognition to the hardworking student in high school. -Q g Kp. BACK ROW: Mr. Bornor, Gilmour, Hartje, Greene, 1. Anderzon, Cryer, DI.

With Mr. june E. Bornor up there on the podium with his white baton orchestra members need never worry about suffering from all work and no play, for Mr. Bonor does plan some wonderful times for his kids as he fondly calls them. At the beginning of the year, the annual informal tea was given to wel- come all the new members and to give everyone a chance to become acquainted. A program of local talent, cider, and doughnuts, dancing, plus a special feature of using brooms for dance partners to make up for a scarcity of boys made everyone agree that it was a wonderful party.

Then of course we mustn't forget that gay costume party, also for com- bined orchestras, at which this year West High was the host. This is called the annual orchestra banquet and is celebrated by the giving of speeches and IOQISES, dancing and the awarding of medals to those seniors who have given three years of service to the orchestra. At lasting tradition and one which every senior looks forward to is the day Mr. Bornor brings his sixteen millimeter camera to school and records the face of each senior, Each has a couple of minutes in which he may talk, play or do anything that he wants. This prize film is shown at the orchestra banquet amid many shouts and the inevitable groans of That can't be me. A great help this year was the fairly new wire recorder on which the orchestras playing was recorded and then played back so that all mis- takes could be heard and the playing criticized. All in all the white-sweatered boys and girls in 519 wear those emblems with a feeling of pride in remembrance of a lot of satisfying work combined with parties and good times and the memory of a swell leader in Mr. Bornor. Officers for the hrst semester were jack Blankfield, president, Bill Spickerman, vice-president, Beverly Carlson, secretary, Pat Rutz, treas- urerg and Russell Erickson, Marilyn Molander, and Bruce Anderson, librarians.

Then, after the yelling dies down, the pupils descend from the balcony to the gym floor where they dance to melodies played by a popular orchestra. Who planned all this? Why, one of the various committees of the Student Council was behind it all--the East-West rally committee. They hired the orchestra and ar- ranged all the other details. Council members also work at after-game parties, taking tickets, serving cokes, and supervising the ping-pong tables. The Student Council bought the brightly colored juke box in the cafeteria which is used for dancing. Student Council members are the governmental repre- sentatives of the whole student body.

They represent the Student Council on a faculty board which recom- mends all athletic, debate, and ROTC awards. The memorial garden, developed by the Council, is kept up by the building and grounds committee. These students also plan an appropriate tribute to our gold star boys on Memorial day. Checking all hazardous areas in and around school, arranging dates for special safety movies, and plan- ning posters for the hall bulletin boards are the duties of the safety committee. Different committees prepare bulletins which are sent out to all homerooms. The executive committee issued one explaining clubs offered at East, and several were put out by the building and grounds and safety groups.

Trellle Chair Prnjeeted ew Hehe Fund Treble Clef, where could that name have been derived from?'l you may ask. Since the little curlicue figure placed at the beginning of each line of printed music is called a treble clef, and since this group sings song music written only in the treble clef, the name fits perfectly. Girls carefully selected after voice tests compose this ex- clusive group who sing only sacred and secular music, usually in four part harmony. Besides singing, members learn how to direct a chorus or group, learn key signatures, notes, sight reading, and other mechanics of music. This year Treble Clef began their activities by giving a concert at sophomore parents' night. They also undertook the project of purchasing robes, giving other concerts to raise the necessary funds. Until they could afford white ones of their own, the girls were given permission to use the wine-colored robes of the A Cappella choir.

Shame! No, they're not being punished for some misdemeanor, but are members of one of the busiest and largest clubs at East High. This is the Mono club. These efficient students reside in the halls while their class- mates are busy studying in studyhalls. While trying to get in a little study themselves, they have the job of regulating the hall lights, directing visitors through the building, and keeping an eye out for wandering students. To fulhll these duties, and carry the responsibility, and to use wisely the authority which is imparted to them, it is necessary that each monitor be dependable, patient, and hard-working. Perhaps you have ventured down the halls inquisitively peep- ing into some classroom and found yourself quite tonguetied when asked why you are in the halls. If students cannot produce an admit or give a convincing reason, they are quickly ushered out. Other than the hall monitor, there is another very active and important member of the club who is known as a traveling monitor. He is properly named so for he goes around to the different posts to check on whether or not the person is at his assigned position. The ofhcers for this year are Jerry Ashley, president, Bill Hills, vice-president, Mary Schwartz, secretary, janet Palm- quist, treasurer. TOP ROW: R. Carlson, J. Moore, Stewart, Hills, Aldeen, A.

Under the leadership of Miss Margaret Swanson, the purpose of the club is to promote interest in Swedish customs, the language, dress, work and amusement. Program chairman janet johnson and social chairman jane Kiell plan for the club such pleasures as smorgasbord and radio broadcasts. Following last year's procedure, the club and Swedish classes again presented a radio program of Christmas carols and the Christmas presents at one meeting. The initiation party, the Christmas party, and the Mothers' tea held in May, were the main attractions of this year. The officers of this club, under the supervi- sion of Miss Marion Whittle, are Barbara Fairgrieve, president, Joyce Baucom, vice- president: Marjorie Baucom, secretary: and Lorraine Lockner, treasurer.

Of course this club has smorgasbord, but even members of this group like to turn American when hot dogs and mustard are mentioned and a weinie roast was planned for a future date. The new name picked for the group has an appropriate trans- lation, for in English Skall vi prata? means Shall we talk?

They have taken many after school hikes to neighboring parks about Rockford. On No- vember 26, the club took an all-day hike to the White Pines. They met first in the recre- ation room of Miss McEvoy's home, the scene of many previous Zoo parties, for a before the hike breakfastf, Projects in the room will fill the winter program. Preparing a project for exhibition at this year's meeting of the Jr. Academy of Science in Galesburg was another objective of the active members of the club. Serving as adviser of the club is Miss Aleta McEvoy, and those holding official positions during the first semester were: james Steven- son, president, Carol Keister, vice-presidentg Marilyn johnson, secretaryg and Shirley Par-- ker, treasurer.

From an organization of artistic people called Pa Bru, standing for the words paint brush, the Triple Arts club has evolved. This club differs from the original, because it is open to anyone interested in any part of the entire field of fine artsg painting, music, and drama. The first club was for art students only. With their adviser, Mr. Richard Martikonis, these people meet after school, usually on Tuesday nights, to discuss various phases and new developments in this field. One of this year's best liked meetings featured the showing of a movie purchased by the Visual Aid department of the Rock- ford Board of Education for the benefit of students interested in fine arts. Upon payment of semester dues, each pupil receives a pink, billfold-sized card certifying membership. These are filled out and distributed by the club secretary. One of East highis youngest organization, the Triple Arts club is continually growing. Its membership has increased during the few years the club has been in existence. Members have planned socials and other events for coming semesters. Virginia Skoog was elected president at the club's first meeting of the year. Joan Peterson held the office of vice-president: Nancy Johnson, secretary, and Colene Anderson, treasurer. R.

East, West urge Each Wednesday night at seven o'clock girls from both East and West high schools meet at the YWCA in an organization known as the Y-teens, under the direction of Miss JoAnne Schowalter, their adviser and friend. Alternate meetings are Activities Nights at which the mem- bers may participate in crafts, music, radio plays and other things which interest them. Business meetings are conducted separately by the sophomores, juniors, and seniors, but in most of the activities the groups are together. At the business sessions the members discuss dues, future dances, friendship, dating, and schemes to raise money for the treasury. To grow as a person and to grow in friendship with peoples of other races, nationalities, and religions is the purpose of Y-teens. To further their purpose each year the girls organize a council made up of the officers of all the clubs to plan the meetings and iron out all the problems. Members wear small triangle-shaped pins with a globe super- imposed on it, representing the world-wide function of the Hi-Spot was founded by the activity-minded girls of the group.

Mr. Harry Palmer, head football coach, was helped by assistant varsity football coaches Mr. Steve Polaski and Mr. Art Wilson who, in addition to their regular coaching chores, also scoured the opposing teams, mapped strategy and ran the Hilltop offense throughout the season from the now-com- mon T formation and varied the Rab defense by using live, six, and seven man lines. Coach Wilson, a new addition to the East High athletic department, also headed the junior-Varsity squad, a team composed of juniors and seniors who were not quite ex- perienced enough to make the varsity squad, In its third year at East, the 1-V's opened their limited schedule at home against their younger brother, the East sophs, pre- liminary to the Moline-East Varsity tilt. The sophs scored once in the second and once in the third quarter to hand the j-V's a 12-O loss. In the next two encounters the East- ites met the Beloit gridmen, first at Beloit and then at home, and received respective Z5-O and 24-O trouncings. After traveling to a 27-O loss at Mount Morris, the Rabs returned to Rockford to meet the West I-V's. East's only Looking over the ninth season's record are East's coaches and captains.

Although they lost their five games, these tilts gave valuable game experience to boys who may come into their own as members of the Rab varsity next season. Opening the I948 varsity football season at home on Septem- ber IO, the Rabs sailed over, through, and around a hapless Fast Moline eleven in the hrst quarter to rack up an impressive Z0-O victory. All the scoring came in the opening quarter as Phil Vella, Hilltop right halfback, plunged over for the ini- tial Red and Black touchdown of the I9-I8 season. Bob Bog- donas, left halfback, converted to push the Rabs in front 7-0. Hardly had their home town followers found time to settle themselves comfortably in their seats when the Rabs notched two more T.D.'s. Bogdonas crossed the double line into pay dirt both times, first on the 57-yard interception of a Moline aerial and then on a -I6-yard quick opener. Mr. Bogdonas wound up the nights scoring by kicking the extra point fol- lowing the second touchdown, but he saw his third attempt narrowly miss as it bounced off the crossbar. Action in the last three quarters slowed down to a walk as the Rabs' offense stalled with the stilfening of the out-of-towners' defense, and both teams battled the remainder of the game on nearly even terms.

Traveling to East Madison in their first out-of-town tilt the fol- lowing week, the Hilltop crew, saw the decision of the previous week exactly reversed as they got trounced by the same identical score, 20-O. The two teams see-sawed back and forth during the opening quarter, but both Madison halfbacks notched a touch- down in the third quarter to leave the score at halftime l3-0. The linal six points came in the Hnal period as Gene Eldred, Madison right halfback, scored his second touchdown of the night on a short line plunge. Short, light, 140-pound scatback Jim Kish of Gary, lndiana's Lew Wallace High School was the big factor in making the Rabs' return home not overly joyous the following week. The Eastites lost 21-6, Mr. Kish crossing the goal line twice himself and setting up the third Gary touchdown via a pass interception. The Pal- mermen, however, might have received some consolation in the fact that when Frank R, Big Sonnyu Calacurcio hauled an oppo- nent's pass out of the air and jogged 26 yards to a T. D., it was the hrst time the out-of-towners had been scored on during the '48 season. Capitalizing on a Hilltop fumble and an interception of a Rab aerial, Joliet's Steelmen scored in the first and last quarters to give them a 13-0 decision at Joliet. The Rockford injury list of Jerry Ashley, Phil Vella, and Jerry Nichols had three new additions following the Rab-Steelmen tilt, as starter Kenny Greene and Bob Bogdonas found themselves decorating the sidelines before the end of the nrst half. Reserve back Bill Hills replaced the injured Bogdonas and the following play left the game with a broken arm received while tackling an enemy ball-carrier. Al- though all the rest of the boys eventually returned to the line-up, Greene, who had seen no action until this game because of a broken hand sustained in practice, wrenched his knee and re- mained on crutches the rest of the season, while Hills' broken arm did not heal until too late in the season for him to be of any further use. Rabsl Calacurcio, Stubborn Line Upset LaSalle-Peru Squad, 14-OU headlined the East Highlights account of the Rab-Cavalier en- counter, and that just about told the story. ln previous encounters the injury-ridden East forward wall took massive punishment, but against the LaSalle-Peru eleven it played superbly on both defense and offense. Defensively it stopped four last-half Cavalier drives deep in Rab territory, while offensively it held long enough to give Big Frank plenty of time to get off his booming punts and fine passes that eventually paved the way for the two first-half Rab touchdowns. Crossing the goal line only in the second quarter the Pretzels at Freeport handed the Rabs their second Big-Eight loss the next week, 6-0. Although the Rockford boys drove deep into Pretzel BOB ADEN RUSS JOHNSON PHIL VELLA ROGER KAISI JERRY NICHOLS -haf! X-sa Y ,ff K... L. .c ll!! DON BOGDONAS ROGER PEARSON JERRY ASHLEY LLOYD SONDELL RAY AKELAITIS territory on several occasions, they saw all their scoring possibil- ities nullified one after another by tumbles and pass intercep- tions. Back home for the next encounter Rab followers saw their eleven nearly upset West Aurora, the conference leader and eventual Big Eighty champion. The Hilltoppers matched their opponent touchdown for touchdown and even led, 12-7, at the start of the final quarter, but the Blackhawks, following a 64-yard touchdown drive, punched across their second six- pointer of the evening to give the one-point advantage, 15-12. The annual East-West grid encounter, the high point of Rock- ford football interest, saw the Rabs trounce their cross-town opponents, 27-6, to give the Palmermen a 5-4 edge in the nine intra-city tilts played since the opening of the two schools in 1940. Also of interest was the half-time ceremony at which time the field, previously known only as 15th Avenue Stadium, was officially named Beyer Field and dedicated to Mr. Charles Beyer, coach of Rockford teams for over 50 years. Although the Rabs scored in the second and the Warriors counted in the fourth period, the first, second, and fourth quar- ters were played on nearly even terms. The third quarter, however, was when the roof literally fell in on the Rabs' cross- river rivals. Bogdonas returned the kick-off opening the second half 88 yards to the Braves, six-yard marker from which point Big Frank Calacurcio plunged into the end zone to give the Rabs a 15-O lead. After a short series of kicks Bogdonas scamp- ered 24 yards for another score to increase the margin to 20-0. Less than a minute after the Hilltoppers kicked off following their third touchdown, end Don Bogdonas inter- cepted a Warrior lateral behind the West line of scrimmage and sailed 28 yards across the opponents goal for six more points. Cal- acurcio made his third conversion of the evening and the Rabs led 27-O. The fourth quarter Sunsetter T.D. came when Dick Mc- Laughlin plunged over from the one-foot line to wind up the evenings tallying and leave the scoreboard as the final gun sounded: East Rockford 27, West Rockford 6. ln the remaining two conference games. the E-Rabs received a sound trouncing at East Aurora by the powerful, second-place Tom- cats, 18-2, and then returned to muddy Beyer Field and the finale of the 1948 football season where they lost to Elgin by another one-point margin, 13-12. The Red and Checking in equipment after the season are Wayne Dahlgren, Kenneth Carlson, and Armour Swanson, varsity managers. Warming up before practice is one of the jobs of the players. Here the team is going through its exercises in its warming up formation. A.. ,rg 1.13.14 z TOM ERAWLEY Kei i Blacks took the lead early in the fourth quarter, l2-7, but saw it nullified with only two minutes and 57 seconds left in the game on a lfl-yard touchdown pass into their end zone. The Lut-risk boys won one of three non-conference battles and two of their seven Big Eight encounters to hold a season record of three wins and seven losses and to notch sixth place in the final conference standings. At the close of the season guard Cliff Brees and halfback Bob Bogdonas were elected honorary co-captains while five boys were given first string berths on the second annual all-city football squad and three more Rab gridsters merited second team recog- nition. The all-city squad was composed of members of the St. Thomas football squad along with the boys from East and West high schools and was chosen by the various coaches gags? FRANK CQ. CALACURCIO KEN GREENE LENNY ALDEEN NORMAN BRYAN and sports writers from the Rockford area. These men chose Bob Aden, Roger Kaisi, Cliff Brees, Big Frank Calacurcio, and Bob Bogdonas for the first team and Dick Cogswell, Mel Pearson, and Jerry Nichols for the second. Although the Big Eight coaches agreed that no official all- conference team should be made public, a Chicago news- paper published an unoHicial listing which mentioned all five Rabs that were on the all-Rockford first team. Only Bogdonas was given first-string rating, while Calacurcio, Aden, and Kaisi weer placed on the second team, and Cliff Brees was given honorable mention recognition. In the football awards assemblies on November 23-24, major letters were given to 22 gridsters, minor numerals were awarded to 20 boys who played .I-V football, and one minor and two major letters were given to the varsity foot- ball managers.

Allenmen Buck Strung Uppnsililm Posing for the cameraman, Bob Allen and Dick Lake, ccach and captain respectively, are looking over this year's Sophomore record. The East High sophs, under the coaching of Mr. Bob Allen, compiled a won-lost record of three wins, hve losses, and a tie. The team's Big Eight record was two victories, four defeats, and a tie. In their initial tilt, the Rablets faced East's jayvee squad and beat them 13-0. Paul Maurici scored both of the touchdowns for the sophs. The team showed plenty of speed and class in shutting out the upperclassmen. The next week, East took a trouncing from the J-V's of Madison East, 25-O. Maurici was again the offensive sparkplug for East while Angelo Lazzerini and Dick Lake starred in the line. The sophs drew a tough assignment for their opening Big Eight game as they met Joliet, which eventually won the conference championship. At the end of this one-sided game, Joliet had shut out the Rablets, 52-0. Recovering from the pasting they received the week before, the Rablets squeezed out a 7-O victory over the Cavaliers from LaSalle-Peru. Both teams fought through an even, scoreless half but in the fourth period Lake went over from the one-yard marker for the score. Short passes by Lake and jerry Patterson set up the pay-off play. The next week East held Freeport, the pre-season favorite, scoreless until the fourth quarter when the Pretzels pushed across two quick TD's to win 13-O. The Rablet line held the speedy Freeport in check throughout the first half, but their own offensive drives failed to materialize. Meeting the Blackhawks of West Aurora the next week, the Rablets won their second Big Eight tilt of the campaign, 6-0.

For the second straight year, West Rockfords Papooses ran rough- shod over the Rablets, this year to the tune of 19-6. West spe- cialized on line smashes and end runs to go ahead 19-0 after three periods. The lone Rab tally came in the final quarter on a pass from Lake to Howie Weyberg. At East Aurora, the Allenmen lost a heart-breaker to the Tom- cats, 7-6. During the third quarter, Dick Lake raced 58 yards on a beautifully executed play for the tally. The plunge for the extra point failed. Midway in the final canto, the Torncats climaxed a 60-yard march with a three-yard plunge. The try for the all- important extra point was good, clinching the game. In the final game of the season, East was held to a 7-7 tie by Elgin's Maroons. joey TeeVan set up the Rablets' scoring chance on a 41yard sprint to Elgin's 14-yard stripe. On the next play, Lake passed to TeeVan in the end zone. The Maroons tied the game on a one-yard plunge in the fourth quarter. SOPH.

Bob Moore, listens to Coach Allen's plans for the team's next meet with West High. 42 By combining eight consecutive dual meet victories with an eighth place in the state meet held at New Trier, February 25 and 26, Coach Robert Allen's 1948-49 East high swimming squad wound up its most successful tank season in the Rabs' nine-year history. Although meeting such powerful squads as Clinton, Iowa, the 1948 Iowa state champions, and New Trier of Wfinnetka, the school that roared to first place in this seasons Illinois state meet, the Hilltop tankmen com- pleted their schedule with a dual meet record of eight wins and two losses and a second and third place in their only two triangular swimming en- counters. With only three of this yearls lertermen, free-style sprint man Bob Moore and divers jack Nielsen and Bob Bogdonas, being lost by graduation, Coach Allen's boys are looking forward to-and hoping for- an even more successful season next year. In the grand finale to the 1948-49 season, the state meet at New Trier, East placed a backsrroker and relay team to give them four points and eighth place in a field of 32 competing schools. The backstroker who placed was the Rabs' sophomore speedster Jack Hoaglund who notched fourth place in the 100-yard backstroke in the state meet and who also set a new East high pool record in that event with the excellent time of 1205.0 minutes. Hoaglund then teamed with Moore, Nielsen and Milt Ellis to streak to fifth place in the 200-yard free-style relay at New Trier to gain East's remaining downstate points. Much credit, however, should also be given to other Rab nararors who narrowly missed placing down- state or who were consistent point winners during regular season compe- tition. , Relaxing before the time trials in the 100 yd. breast stroke event are Jack Nielson gracefully performs a one-half gainer with a one-half twist to Roger Janson, Tom Bartels, Jim Bailey, and Stan Mattison, capture the highest honors in the dQving events during the East-LaSalle-Peru Downstate, Nielsen finished seventh in the pre- liminary diving competition that saw the first six boys dive in the finals, and Bob Kevetter, swim- ming in a new event in state competition, the in- dividual l50-yard medley swim, missed being one of the five boys to qualify for the finals by only .I of a second. In addition to those already men- tioned, other Rab mainstays all season long were free-stylers Dick Seeburg in the 50 and relay and H200-men Vern Doyle and Dick Wisocki.- The Hilltop tankmen with three of the state's best back-strokets on their squad also had Val Kru- konis, who placed eighth in the state, and Kevet- ter swimming in that event, while in the breast stroke Tom Barrels and Jim Bailey headed the field. The 1948-49 season also saw, for the first time in the school's history, a separate sophomore swim- ming squad hold competition with other schools, and in seven dual meets the Rablets came out with a record of two wins and five losses. One difhculty that the soph team encountered in their schedule was that several of their best swimmers, Hoaglund, Seeburg, and Wisocki, competed almost solely in varsity encounters, while other sophs-Arvid Bloom and Stan Mattison-also saw a good deal of varsity action which greatly limited the amount of sophomore competition for these five boys. At the close of the season Bob Moore was elected captain of the varsity squad by his teammates. mect on February 11.

The Palmermen opened the season by downing Sycamore to the tune of 35-22, and then proceeded to knock off Waterman and Niles Township with scores of 50-25 and 48-23 respectively. In their first conference game of the season the Sophs were humbled by a powerful Freeport live 50-28. Early in the game, the Pretzelettes began driving around the Rockford defense for lay- ups thereby building up a 25-12 lead at half-time. ln the second half Rockford was held to 16 points while Freeport racked up a total of 27 more rallies. CThe Pretzelettes later became the Little Eight champsj. ' The next week the Palmermen chalked up their first conference vic- tory by defeating West Aurora 57-45 in an out-of-town game. This game was highlighted by the Rablets' ability to hit the hoop. They made 21 out of 45 shots for an average of 45 per cent.

Minnihan and Benson were high scorers in this game with 11 points each. Belvi- dere was the next to fall before the Palmermen in the Sophs' second contest with the Bucs. The following week the Freeport quintet once again steam- rolled over the Rablets, this time with an impressive 75-56 score. The Rablets handed an undefeated Elgin live their first loss of the season by topping the Maroonites 55-45, and then proceeded to top the LaSalle-Peru and Sterling underclass- men. In the second crosstown game West Rockford once again defeated the Sophs. This time the Braves triumphed 49-47. In their last game of the regular '48-'49 season, the Hill- toppers fell to Joliet 55-55 thus placing them squarely in hfth place in the Soph Conference.

Lautlemen iss Sweet Sixteen Although their won-lost record C13-105 shows a medi- ocre year, East high's basketball team played good bas- ketball and showed flashes of a championship squad. Their record is not a fair reflection of their ability, since Coach Laude's charges met some of the top cage teams in the state. Opening their season on Thanksgiving Eve at Sycamore, the Rabs had to overcome an early Spartan lead to win, 55-26. Bob Hubbell sparked East with 10 points. Re- turning home two nights later, East sailed past Water- man after piling up a 17-2 lead in the first quarter. Playing their last game before entering conference com- petition, East played host to Niles Township and beat them in a rough affair, 56-45. A total of 52 fouls were called on both teams. East opened their Big Eight warfare with a bang as they nipped Freeport in an overtime battle, 49-48. Bob An- derson was the hero of the game, tying the score on a free throw with only seconds remaining in the fourth quarter and then potting three more important points in the overtime. A week later at West Aurora, the Laudemen suffered their first defeat of the season, 46-54. The Blackhawks, paced by veteran johnny Biever, took the lead in the first quarter and never relinquished it. Returning to the East Emporium, East uentertainedi' Mo- line and was trounced 59-39. Moline, a member of this year's Sweet Sixteen, was rated eighth in the state by the Associated Press at the time. After winning the Clinton Holiday Tournament for the two previous years, the Rabs entered the East St. Louis meet this year. In their first round game of the eight team affair, the Rabs nosed out Benton, 43-42, on Bob Hubbell's last minute long shot. In their second round game, East had the misfortune of meeting Kankakee, which was rated second in the state behind Elgin. After posting a 24-11 first half lead, Kankakee survived a late rally by East to win, 47-36. The boys from Kankakee went on to win the meet, whipping South Shore of Chi- cago in the final game by two points. Returning to conference play, East traveled to LaSalle- Peru and edged the Cavaliers, 32-28. Coach Laude ini- tiated his slow, possession style of playing in this game. The Rabs marked up a 17-8 lead in the first half but were outscored in the second half, 20-15. The next night, the Lutfisk Lads met a determined Belvidere five but finally won 44-40.

The next week, the Rab cagers found themselves under- dogs to West Rockford in the first crosstown tilt of the year, but bewildered the Warriors with their stalling tactics and won 29-28. With 15 seconds remaining and one point behind, Gene Lenz potted two gift tosses for the victory. Running up against one of the tallest quints in the state a night later, East lost to Oak Park, 41-33, on the lat- ter's home court. . The Rabs won their fourth Big Eight tilt in five starts a week later when they scored a 56-45 win over the Tom- cats from East Aurora. This win put the Rabs in a sec- ond place tie with West Rockford, behind Elgin. Gene Lenz highlighted the game when he converted on all of 10 free throw attempts. The next night East avenged an earlier close call and beat Belvidere's Bucs 50-39. Bob Aden and Frank Cala- ROGER NIELCEN DICK JOHNSON curcio led the Rabs' scoring attack with 11 points each. The next Friday, East treked to Freeport only to fall victim to the Pretzels' home court jinx, 48-33. The Rabs were in the game only during the first half.

East held the Ma- roons to a six-point advantage at halftime, but Bob Pet- erson and Co. iced the game with a 20 point splurge in the third period. All hopes for a share in the Big-Eight championship were killed a Week later when LaSalle-Peru upset the Rabs on the latter's home floor, 44-39. It was their fourth conference loss in eight starts. The next night East almost ended Sterlings 18 game winning streak before losing 23-22. The Rabs were ahead for the largest part of the game but their inability to connect on long shots in the late stages cost them the victory. In their return match, East lost to West 46-38, with most of the blame going to Jim Allen. Allen hit from all angles in scoring 21 points. West picked up a 10 point lead in the second quarter, which they kept throughout the game. Winning their last conference game by the same mar- gin that they won their first, East beat Joliet, 27-26.

JERRY STOCKWELL DICK LAKE hook shot by Roger Nielcen in the last 15 seconds gave East the victory and a .500 percentage in the Big Eight. This game ended the regular season play for the Rabs and gave them a won-lost record of ll-9. East was assigned to the Wlest Rockford Regional and was seeded second behind the host team. Amassing the highest total in recent years, East trounced Harvard, 85-29, in their first round game. Gene Lenz was high scorer with 17 points, but all ten players hit at least once for East. Kirkland gave East a stubborn battle before being elim- inated 37-33, in their semi-final game. The margin of victory was not produced until the final canto. This win sent the Rabs into the Regional finals against West, which had defeated Harlem and Belvidere-the latter by a single point. After a ding-dong battle, which saw both teams take large margins only to lose them, W'est finally subdued East in the Regional Championship, 52-30. East took an early 9-2 lead but the Warriors quickly tied it at 12- up.

This victory marked the hrst time that a West High team has defeated East in a tournament game and the nrst time that West has defeated East twice in the same season. In eight years of Crosstown rivalry, East has won 18 times, while Wfest has won only five times. The loss eliminated East from further tournament par- ticipation, ending their streak of state tournament activ- ity at four years. The over-all season record for this year's team was 15 wins and 10 losses. ln Big-8 action, the Rabs split even with hve wins and as many setbacks. They tallied 929 points for an average of 40.4, while their opponents gar- nered 907 for 39.4 average. Gene Lenz was high scorer for the year with 187 points. Bob Aden followed with 166. Frank Calacurcio had 1255 Roger Nielcen, 1205 and Bob Hubbell, 106. Lenz was named to the second string of the Big-8 all-star team while Aden and Cala- curcio were given honorable mention. To build teamwork and gain experience was the an- swer Coach Polaski gave to the question-what's the purpose of the junior-varsity basketball team. This year's squad has been exceptional-it lost only one tilt OLII of a nine game schedule. Although this list in- cludes only one Big-S member, Wfest Rockford, the main body of teams are from local cities which compete in our regionals and sectionals. The scrappy East Rab J-V's downed the West Warrior gl-V's, 44-45, on January 27, but on February 14 the potential varsity boys were topped by their crosstown rivals in the last game of the season, 51-46. The J-V hoopsters have been specializing in a fast-break ball game which has met with much success. Composing the 1949 junior-varsity crew were: Russ Johnson, jerry Stockwell, Ernie Vowels, Ronnie Ander- son, john Ericson, Wayne Lenz, Roger Stelma, Dick Lake, Ed Brockmeier, .lim Flodin, Tom Sheetz and Carl Dickey.

This seasonys squad, under the supervision of Mr. Art Wfilson, won two matches out of a possible eight, pushed its way to a close second in its first triangular meet, and brought home very fine state and sectional individual records. This year the Rabs faced a very tough schedule with some of the top ranked teams on its list. New Trier of Winnetka, Proviso, Moline, and Elgin offered the strongest contenders. Although the matmen won only two of their contests, they gave their opponents a scrappy battle and something to think about. Bill johnson finished the season with a fifth place individual state award and a second place New Trier Sectional medal. Bill has been East's only wrestling representative down state in two years. He has also been the only major letterman on the team-he has won two wrestling majors. Ralph Wahlberg, 105 pound junior, had the best individual report in team competition with 12 wins, one tie, and one loss. His only loss was in sectional competitiong it was the only match that blocked his downstate journey. Roger Mitchell, the most developed man on the team, won seven matches while losing only four and tying one. This year was his second but last on the crew. Coach Wilson will be losing many experienced wrestlers like Bill johnson, Roger Mitchell, Tom Frawley, and Wayne Popham, His hopes will rest on the shoulders of Ralph Wahlberg, Dean Anderson, Dick Grace, Ronald Johnson, Peter Chabucos, Neal Bishop, and Gordy Thorell. With wrestling in its fourth year at East, Mr. Wilson will have no trouble in producing a championship squad next year. TOP ROW: L. Olson, Psaltis, Christiansen, Popham, Grace, R. Johnson, D.

The Oak Park track fiends once again ran away with the East- West-Oak Park triangular meet, which this year took place at the Fifteenth Avenue Stadium on April 23. Many East and West fans saw the Rockford athletes lost in the dust as Oak Park won with 97 points. East's Rabs wriggled through to take second place with 49 points, six more points than West's Warriors. Oak Park showed their power when they easily won first place with only one-half of their first string competing in the contest. Last year, Oak Park's terrific track- sters won the State Track Title.

Although the 1949 version of the Rab tennis team con- sists of only one returning letterman and eight candidates from last year's team, the Palmermen should nety' them- selves a good record. Heading this year's team will be Bill Rudelius, number three man last year. The other returning racketeers ate: Jack Beckstrom, Gordy Lucas, Bob Hubbell, Ty Swan- berg, Bill Spickerman, Bergen Nelson, Chuck Carter, and Bill Bjork. Last year's netmen won eleven dual meets while suffer- ing no defeats. They handed losses to such teams as Dixon, Freeport, Belvidere, Rochelle, Beloit, and Elgin. The West Warriors could only tie the Hilltoppers in their two meetings of the season. Gordy Stang, 1948's number one man, won the districtls single championship to earn his major letter. West Rockford came out on top in the district meet with 15 points. East was runner-up scoring eleven tallies. Lenny Hallen and Bill Rudelius teamed up in a doubles set to take sec- ond place in the Big-8 conference matches, thereby capturing their major awards. West Rockford again emerged victorious as they won the Big-8 championship with 8 points. The Warriors were followed by Elgin, 6 points, and East Rockford with 4 points. When Mr. Palmer called for recruits this spring, 26 boys reported: he therefore has plenty of material to work with. The season began in the usual manner of conditioning, practice in the gym, and finally court practice at Churchill and South East End parks. The first competitive playing began with the ladder tournaments held on April 4, 5, and 6. At the finish of this tournament the team standing was as follows: Rudelius, Beckstrom, Lucas, Hub- bell, Kjell, Nelson, Spickerman, D. johnson, Swanberg and Carter. In their first match the Rabnets defeated West High 18-15. 22 singles matches were played in which East copped 12 to win 12-10, and out of the 11 doubles matches East was victorious in 6. Hoping to keep their dual record clean, Coach Harry Palmeris charges will seek to return the Big-8 title to East Rockford.

Q Golfers ln Irun Things Uul Wait 'til you see the golf team go to town this seasonf has always been the cry of East High sports fanatics in recent years, for no matter how the Rabs' other athletic teams fared, the golfers have always found clear sailing and have really gone to town. Defeated in only one dual match in their eight years of competi- tion Cat Beloit in 1946 by a 7-8 scorej, the Hilltoppers captured the state title for four consecutive years, 1942-5, and again in 1947 and took the Illinois runner-up honors last season and in 1946. For the past seven years the Rabs have annexed the district golf title, and in every year but one they have found the Big-8 conference trophy in their hands. This season, however, the boys will have a much tougher job laid out for them. Losing eight of last year's nine lettermen, including captain and Illinois's 1948 State medalist Dean Lind, by gradu- ation, Coach Jim Laude will form the 1949 squad around his sole veteran, Russ Johnson, who last season when only a sophomore captured seventh place in the individual scoring in the Illinois state meet. Seniors who played on last year's team and who are expected to be among the top men are Dave johnson, Don Olson, Fred Beck- nell, Don Buell, Dick Wakenight, and Russ Erickson, while an- other boy, sophomore Howie Weyberg, has shown promise dur- ing the early part of the season. Coach Laude in announcing the golf schedule, which includes at least 15 dual matches in addition to the district, conference, and state meets, also explained that his tee-toters will not suffer from a lack of keen competition this season for the Eastites will face such strong teams as Beloit, Moline, and West Rockford, the lat- ter sporting three returning lettermen to form a powerful nucleus for their squad.

Snasnrfs Prospects High fur nuntlmen Coach William Aleks and his baseball team are in their third year at East and chances for their copping the state title are higher than they have ever been. Practically all of last year's great team has returned, forming a nucleus for this year's squad. Beside these returning veterans, other diamond enthusiasts report for practice every night in an effort to break into the line-up. The only real losses from last year's team, which won 15 out of 16 games, are Gene Tarabilda, pitcher, who later entered the professional ranks, Captain Harold Samorian, flawless fielding first basemang and Chuck Davis, outfielder, who led the team in batting with a .343 mark. Back from last year's squad are pitchers jack Blankfeld and Bob McKay. Blankfeld tossed a no-hitter against Aquin last year and is considered the best major league prospect in this area. McKay is also an able flinger with a wealth of experience to add to the mound staff. This one-two punch has been bolstered by the addition of Don Sandstrom, right hander from Englewood of Chicago. Other hurling prospects are Ernie Vowles, junior, and Roger Milligan, sophomore. Behind the plate will be Dick Cogswell, topnotch reserve from last year. With one exception, the inheld is the same as last year's. The exception is Ray Akelaitis, who was understudy to first baseman Harold Samorian. The Calacurcio boys will again hold down the keystone positions, Little Sonny at second and Big Sonny at short. Last year this combination formed one of the best double-play units in the state. Little Sonnyn was one of the top hitters on the squad, belting the ball at a .342 pace. Dick Murphy will again defend third base. Although no lettermen are back to roam the outer gardens, Coach Aleks has many two and three year veterans to choose from for these spots. Bob Bogdonas, last year's catcher, was switched to the outheld to provide more potent stickwork in the line-up. The other two positions will probably be hlled by Jim Flodin and Lefty Manson. Also vying for outfield posi- tions are Jerry Nichols, Dick Gustafson, and Fred Zoeller.

They have had a bit of practical experience and can handle themselves in almost any diamond situation that may come up. An- other trait that will make these boys hard to beat is their hustle. Whenever they get on base, they will give any pitcher a headache. It is not uncommon for Coach Aleks's boys to pilfer as many as eight bases in one game. To tune up his charges for the state tournament grind, which starts in the middle of May, Coach Aleks has arranged a fine 12-game schedule. The card includes games with West Rockford, St. Thomas, Freeport, and Belvidere--all tough teams with good records. Of the 12 tilts, East is host in seven. These are to be played at Rox Park. Last year's nine swept every game of the regular season and then went on to take the District crown. It was in the Sectional that the Aleksmen lost their only game. Leading Niles, 2-O, to start the ninth Tarabilda fanned the first two men to face him. But then the next two got on base on a walk and a scratch hit. The next batter sent a Hy to left field, but the ball got away from outfielder Hubert Hefflin. All three men scored snatching the sectional crown from East's grasp. 1949 BASEBALL SCHEDULE April 8-Aquin .......,... .....,..,......,,.,.,.,......... ...... ,.,.

Anyone who has won a letter in some sport is eligible to become a member. The group, which is under the direction of Coach Steve Polaski, was begun with the in- tention of bringing all the sports interests of the school to- gether in mutual fair play and to set an example of good sportsmanship for the school. The activity that attracts the most attention to the club is the annual lettermen's ball with its traditional red, black, and white decorations. At one time this year it seemed doubtful as to whether the club would continue to sponsor the dance, but because it is a tradition, the members voted to have it again next year. During the sports year the club served as ushers and bolstered the treasury by the sale of Rab pins. Also, in the spring a big picnic was held for all members.

Dolphin ametl llnrnth Jnhnsnn Uuenn Crowned queen of the annual Dolphin Club show this year was Miss Dorothy Johnson. In her election and that of her attendants, Miss Patricia Apitz and Miss Barbara Ericson, the swim club carried out an event that has become a tradition at East High. Each year the school votes for a group of girls nominated by the club. The winner becomes the only member of royalty at East.

His success is evident in the packed natatorium for each per- formance. This yearls show, School Daze, was pre- sented on March 17 and 19. It consisted of comedy in the water and out, fancy diving, swimming exhibitions, and water ballet contributed by the girls' swimming club, Dorado. Because almost all the boys in Dolphin Club are active members of the swim team, the weekly meetings are usually devoted to practice in the pool or to some activ- ity related to it. When the boys are not brushing up for the events they enter during a scheduled meet, they can always find plenty in the way of activity by adding to the number of lengths they have swum in view of win- ning one of the small emblems that represent twenty-five and fifty miles of stroke, stroke, stroke. One of the most gratifying meetings for the old mem- bers each year, is the initiation of new swimmers. Great pains are taken to assure the thoroughness of member- ship with blindfolded initiates walking the ledge around the pool and experiencing new taste thrills from the concoctions stirred up by their seniors.

The East High School battalion of the Reserve Officers Training Corps awaits your inspection. As you watch the cadets standing at attention, try to fathom the amount of instruction and training they have had in good citizenship, precision drill, orderliness, courtesy, correct posture, and re- spect for authority to be ready for their annual Argus report. The ROTC program, which follows the pattern prescribed by the US War department in Washington, is executed by Colonel john W. Britten, who is in charge of both East and West High, with the assistance of Captain Fred Pickering, Warrant Officer Charles R. Hamm, and Master Sergeant William Sherrill. Of these, Captain Pickering and Sergeant Sherrill are new to East High this year. Mr. Hamm and Sergeant Sherrill devote full time to the East High unit, while Captain Pickering travels between East and West. THOMAS WOODWORTH C apzain MISS GLORIA CARLSON 5P0'U0f ham, Foley, Kemp. After the usual beginning-of-the-year uniform fitting, drilling, and scrutinization of personnel in view of promotion, the bat- talion settled down to follow a pattern of study, lectures, and training. A major part of the first semester for the sophomores is an extensive study of marksmanship. Cadets spend many class hours on the rifie range employing the coach and pupil method of two men teaming together so that one may advise and criticize while the other goes through the actual manipula- tion. Cadets also receive extensive training in military organization, history, and teaching methods, weapons, and drill and exercise of command. Besides the regulation 900-page manual and War Department pamphlets, the course has been widened to include numerous visual aids. The department boasts of its own sound projector, and Colonel Britten requisitions films from Chicago. TOP ROW: Lodin, Schneider, Crull, Bengston, Bredholm, Hagstrom.

Enmpan Since most of the ROTC course is covered in the sophomore and junior years, third year cadets take on the added responsi- bility of teaching and command. With this in view, plus a basis of previous record, ability, scholarship, and competitive examinations, this year's officers were chosen. Commissions were made public for the second semester at the annual mili- tary ball. At that time Richard Beckenbaugh was appointed battalion commander with the rank of major. Under Major Beckenbaugh, Captains Thomas Woodworth, Bradley Howe, and Alden Orput served as heads of companies A, B, and C respectively. Captain Russell Erickson served as adjutant, and Second Lieutenant Wayne Cowlishaw took over the duties of supply officer. Commanding the platoons of Company A were Second Lieutenants Roger Heabler, and Wayne Popham, of TOP ROW: Lundgren, Rosenquist, Covert, Alexander, Cook, Reum, McGraw.

Also honored at the Military Ball were the four girls chosen battalion and company sponsors. Miss Marilyn Elam was ap- pointed battalion sponsor with Companies A, B, and C spon- sored by Miss Gloria Carlson, Miss Marilyn Sundquist, and Miss Carolyn Wagoner. These girls have achieved one of the highest honors that can come to any junior or senior girl. Character, poise, and per- sonality are top requirements along with good scholastic aver- age and extra-curricular activities. Sponsors are chosen by the battalion and company commanders with the approval of the principal and dean of girls. They are required to be present at parades, inspections, and other formal ceremonies, and to repre- sent the battalion with their officers at non-school affairs. xv' .

The federal inspection takes place in May when inspectors from the Fifth Army Headquarters visit and scrutinize the school. The unit is graded on a basis of school interest and support, facilities available to cadets, and all general knowledge of cadets in application to field training, achievement in class- room learning, drill ability, and neatness. Also in May the competitive drill takes place. This is an event open to the public wherein the superior company and platoon are chosen in regard to smartness of appearance and drilling ability. Drills are pre-planned by the respective officers. as ra. 'xi ALDEN ORPUT Cupmbi MISS CAROLYN XVAGONER S,twr1,rm' Among the requirements for ROTC units is participation in parades and ceremonies. The Rockford battalions take part in the Armistice Day and Memorial Day parades, and special pre- sentations such as the drill and rifle teams, Memorial Day ob- servances and assemblies at the junior high schools. These are held mainly to stimulate interest in future cadets and oder some introduction to all incoming students. Besides the drill and rifle teams, there are competitive tryouts each year for members of the color guard. This consists of four cadets who precede the battalion at official functions and ap- pear in assemblies requiring a special presentation of the colors. This year's guard was composed of Donald Proctor, commander, and Roger Kindstrom, Walter Schneider, and Gene Garthwaite. TOP ROW: Brown, Skorborg, Oldigs, Hamm, Edwards, R. johnson, Collins.

DONALD WOLD Lieuzemmr EDWARD VON DRISK A Ijenfemzm Ilrillers Shunned ud Another phase of extra activities in the ROTC is the fancy drill team. This group is made up of fifteen cadets who have dem- onstrated their ability in dismounted drill. At school they can be distinguished by the small red emblems bearing the words Drill Team and black and white braid they wear on their shoulder. This year the team exhibited their prowess in precision drill at both football and basketball games besides marching at the head of the battalion during parades. Members like to joke a little about the team's always picking the wettest and muddiest game at which to perform. Soggy ground is not the most com- fortable thing on which to execute a kneeling Queen Ann salute. Commanding this year's team was Captain Alden Orput. Under his jurisdiction were Cadets Sheilds, Farr, Cameron, D. John- son, Buell, Dahlgren, Kinstrom, and Benson. Also part of the team were Cadets Stewart, Wisner, and Thoreen.

Ilralil-1 Paced Hiflemen One of the extra activities that an ROTC cadet can participate in is the rifle team. This has the added attraction of offering major and minor RM letters to the qualifying members. This year the team competed for both the Fifth Army Area Intercollegiate and the Hearst trophies. Regular matches in- cluded bouts with Green Bay, Beloit, Waukegan, West Rock- ford, Northwestern Academy, and Central Catholic. East com- pleted the season with a record of three wins and five losses. However, the record of wins and losses does not show the marked improvement in the team as the season progresses. Scores averaged higher both individually and as a group. Rifle team members spend a great deal of time practicing for their matches. The fifteen men chosen through competitive tryouts can be found working at their marksmanship after school many nights a week and during vacations as well. Qualifying for the first team were Jack Drake, Ed Von Driska, Ed Deardoff, George Kasper, and Walt Farley. Sergeant Sher- rill acted as adviser. TOP LEFT: Checking scores with their sponsor, Sgt.

To the members of GAA who have earned a required number of points by participating and helping out in the various sports of GAA, ISC, and Dorado, major awards of 1200, l600, and 2000 points are presented in the annual girls' sports assembly. These awards are obtained on the basis of four points for each hours participation: 100 points for being in the water ballet, and l00 health points acquired by dental okeys, in- oculations, and a general physical check-up. A black shield with the letters East R. GAA printed in red is the first award. Because of the number of points required to achieve this award, usually only one or two GAA'ers obtain it in their sophomore year. The sec- ond award, a navy blue I with GAA writ- ten in white letters, is awarded when 400 points are added to the original 1200. An emblem shaped like the state of Illinois constitutes the highest possible award of 2,000 points. Special awards designating of- cials ratings are earned on the basis of prac- tical and written exams including the basic rules of the game, ability as an ofiicial, and general attitude of sportsmanship. These must he renewed each year in order to be valid. K The GAA calendar is di- vided into four major team A A sports and numerous minor individual sports. The first semester is devoted to speedball and volleyball, and the second to basket- ball and softball. Wheiiever possible, the spring and fall sports are played out of doors to give the girls an opportunity for more vigorous activi- ties. The individual sports, swimming, archery, table tennis, bowling, badminton, and track, come under the auspices of Dorado and Individual Sports Club. In order to be an active member of GAA, each girl must participate in two major and one minor sport per year. Points given for each hour of activity go towards awards.

BELOW: Spiking often means the difference between a point and side out. VOLLEYBALL, a sport involving both teamwork and individual skills, has the largest enrollment of any activity on the GAA calendar. Overhand serving and spiking the ball are two of the individual accomplishments involving quite a bit of practice. An overhand serve is ex- tremely hard to return, as it comes with speed and force. This is done by tossing the ball in the air, and batting it with an over-arm swing as the ball reaches shoulder height. Spiking can be accom- plished by a girl near the net who jumps high into the air and gives the ball a strong downward thrust into the oppo- nent's court. This yearls team chose their names to represent various types of dogs. In the mixed tournament composed of girls from all three classes Marilyn Sundquists Cockers Mary Morsbach Carolyn Norman Carol Peterson Jean Peterson All came in Hist, and Virginia Skoogs Greyhounds took second place honors. When the mixed tournaments were over, eight girls from each class were chosen to compete in the intraclass games on the basis of sportsmanship, teamwork, and ability.

Carolyn Dorothy Janet Jayne Polly Donna Hirtz Johnson Johnson Kjell Laude Shattuck 155 A BASKETBALL-minded GAAer's of East A high opened their tournament with the first round clash in February. Chosen from the list of girls who signed up were twelve teams which competed in tournament play on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays in the girls' gym. Exceptional ability and clever ball-handling during the high-spirited games proved that good basketball isn't limited to the male sex. Even the referees were students who had passed tests and taken training for the job. The feminine version of basketball differs from the masculine. Six girls form a team composed of three forwards and three guards each playing in different halfs of the court. A player may bounce the ball only once before she passes it, and must at no time except when shooting a free throw hold the ball more than three seconds while on the court. Of the several different types of defense, the one most commonly used is the man-to-man zone, in which the as- sumption is made that the forwards are not dangerous until they are within striking distance of the basket. Therefore, the guards hold their positions between their chosen forward and the basket in order to prevent the forward from entering the striking circle. In this manner, many personal fouls are avoided and a much cleaner game is achieved. Accuracy in shooting, quick thinking, and team coordination are all essential in an exciting GAA basketball game.

SOFTBALL not only provides for vigorous outdoor exercise and activity, but presents an opportunity to show individual skill and teamwork, and to develop good muscle coordination. In the spring, teams com- posed of ten girls are chosen, and the rules and tech- niques of playing are discussed. At the end of the season, the soph, junior, and senior girls who have had the hest records in attendance, attitude, high ideals of sportsmanship, and outstanding playing abil- ity, are chosen to represent their respective classes in the interclass tournament. The rules used are similar to the general softball rules prevailing all over the nation. Refereeing and the handling of equipment is taken care of by student olficials. Sunshine and good healthy exercise make softball an ever popular sport among GAA members. rnafions and an ornamcntcd cane EI-l Featuring a side show, va- riety booths, circus clowns, and a wild woman, the GAA presented its hrst carnival in the gym on january 7.

After this, carnival goers enjoyed dancing, movies, and a style show. 'Qv-M -Www .

Individual Sports llluh Originally a bowling club, lSC has developed into an established organiza- tion including such sports as bowling, golf, archery, table tennis, bad- minton, tennis, and track. Each division of activities is led by a sport head whose duties are to check attendance, work up sport interest, call meetings, and plan a bulletin board display for their event. Each year the lllinois League of High School CvAA's sponsors a telegraphic bowling tournament in February, and a basketshooting tournament in March. Five bowlers and ten basket shooters with the highest averages are eligible to enter the contests from each school that is a participating member of the league. Trophies are awarded to the three schools sub- mitting the highest scores in the state. East's individual honor went to Louise Swanson, whose average was 134. Mary Ann Newton, secretary, and joan Frang, president, look on as Miss Bennett records activity points in the ISC record book. Absent is treasurer, Jeanne Stang. The regular meeting night for club members is Friday, but due to the numerous activities, games are played before and after school other nights of the week. Each sport sponsors a tournament wherein a first place medal is presented to the winner in the annual sports assembly. The winners of the first semester events were Joanne Anderzon, golf, Mary Rieken, archery: Jackie Stohr, table tennis: and Louise Swanson, bowling. Under the direction of Miss Elizabeth Bennett, the club is doing an ex- cellent job of stimulating interest in individual and minor activities that will carry into post-school life, and providing a variety of wholesome competition in everyday life. UPPER LEFT: Careful aim and good posture help to hit the bullseye in this popular sport. LOWER LEFT: Table tennis requires coordination and concentration. LOWER RIGHT: Three members of the ISC bowling club have just released the ball for what they hope is a strike. Under the supervision of Miss Elizabeth Overby, the Dorado girls spend an hour after school each Monday either in earning various swimming badges, acquiring the 72 lengths necessary to become a member of the Mile Club, practicing their diving, perfecting strokes, or just swimming for the fun of it. The ballet group's participation in the Dolphin show, and a yearly swim- ming meet are the annual events of the club. The former takes place in March, and since ballet swimming is the most difficult of all types, approxi- mately two months are spent in preparation for the show. Two teams of eight swimmers each take part, one doing straight swimming, executing different strokes and a few stunts, while the other specializes in various formations, such as a star fioat. The swimming meet, open to all Dora- doites, includes racing, form swimming, and diving. The girls compete against each other and vie for honors as to which class receives the most points. Each individual event gains points for the participant, first, sec- ond, and third places receive 5, 2, and l point respectively. Dorado does much to promote the interests of various water activities. Each year the girls have a chance to pass the Red Cross swimming tests and various other tests such as beginners, intermediate, and advanced. In ABOVE: The first semester Dorado officers: Dorothy Johnson, vice-president, Beverly Bengtson, presidentg Dorothy Matheny, treasurer, and Kay Johnson, secretary, BELOW: Dorado girls splash busily in various activities in East's blue-tiled pool. addition to this, a life saving course is offered. Forty points are given for each of the first four tests, and one hundred for the latter. These give another opportunity to promote good sports- manship and develop abilities that are of infinite value in Swimming provides wholesome exercise as well as healthy fun. times of 6Il16fg6I1Cy- JUNIOR AND SENIOR DORADO MEMBERS BACK ROWS Miss E.
