By the waters of Rock River,
By the heights of Sinnissippi,
Stood the wigwams of the red men,
Stood the villages of teepees.
Here they hunted deer and bisong
Here they lived and toiled and prospered,
Long before their pale face brothers
Found these lands so Wild and wayward,
Found these Woodlands and these meadows.
And their mighty chiettan, Blackhawk,
Bravest of all lndian Warriors,
Led the red men into battle,
Led them from the field victorious,
Like our army and our navy,
Fighting now across the Water,
Many Sterling High alumni
Are enrolled in the armed forces,
And they serve this country ably
ln a time of groivest peril.
To the courage and the bravery
Of these fine American Warriors,
To their boldness when in battle,
To their wholesome mode of living -
We, the students of this high school,
We would dedicate this yearbook.

JUNIORS
You shall hear how junior tribesmen
Sponsored many festive powwows,
Sold sweetmeats at tribal contests,
Basketball and football contests,
Getting necessary wampum
For their senior year in high school.
ln the stormy months of winter,
When the snow lay still and sparkling,
They presented to the public
Four reviews of new editions,
Latest books upon the market.
They gave dances in the schoolhouse
After games with neighboring tribesmen
When the winds of March were raging,
Classmen gathered all the students
For the annual junior war dance.
ln the spring the junior students
Promenadecl with the seniors
At the year's outstanding formal,
At the annual junior prom.

Rock Falls 25, Sterling 7
Community 7, Sterling 0.
Sterling 7, Mendota 6.
Sterling 13, Belvidere 0.
Sterling 19, Princeton 7.
Sterling 6, Dixon 0.
DeKalb 12, Sterling 6.
Clinton l4, Sterling 0.
With the overwhelming success of the 1940 eleven still looming in the minds of the players,
students, and all ardent boosters, the 1941 team faced a challenge. With cooperation and
hard work the boys turned in a successful season in the North Central Conference.
lnexperience told the tale in the season's opener as Rock Falls trounced the Sterling elev-
en 25 to 7, on the Rock Falls field.
lt seemingly wasn't in the hands of fate to have Sterling win an intra-city game this year.
The following week, Community defeated Sterling 7 to 0.
Co-Captain Harry Woodyatt finally got the Goldmen off on the right foot with a 7 to 6 con-
ference win over Mendota. Woodyatt reeled off 24 yards for a touchdown and then place-
kicked the extra point to give a thrilling victory to Sterling.
Former conference member Belvidere proved no match for Sterling in a game played on the
former's field, as Woodyatt again capitalized the scoring for a 13 to 0 win. A slippery turf
held down the score.
Princeton was next on the schedule. Sterling won the game with a 19 to 7 victory. Gallo-
way plunged for one touchdown, while Woodyatt scored the other two.
The annual tussle with Dixon ended in a victory for Sterling, 6 to 0, as Galloway circled
end to score the game-winning touchdown. This made two victorious years in succession
over the purple invaders. This game highlighted the Homecoming celebration.
With no conference defeats chalked against them, Sterling swam to DeKalb but even a
submarine would not have helped a lot in the quagmire of mud, as DeKalb annexed the
conference crown from the Sterling team with a 13 to 6 win.
insult was laboriously added to injury at Clinton, Iowa in the season's finale, as Clinton
defeated Sterling 14 to 0.
This defeat left the team with a .500 percentage, but the season was actually much more
of a success than that. It was the will to do and the fighting spirit that carried the boys
along.

FRESHMAN-SOPHOMORE FOOTBALL
The papooses of Bud Terhune fared quite Well in their tribal warfare during the football
moon, completing their season with five victories, two defeats, and two ties.
Stan Ridge staggered over for a touchdown to give the baby injuns a 6 to 6 tie with Rock
Falls in the season's opener. The freshman-sophomore squad did not play Community on
the same night that the varsity did, but twice during the year they played and defeated
their cross-town rivals. These victories were included in the regular schedule.
Mendota was met and defeated 6 to O in the first conference game. Belvidere fell before the
frosh-soph eleven 6 to O in the first conference game. A wet field proved too much for Sterling
or Princeton to contend with, and the game ended in a scoreless tie.
Dixon maintained their jinx over the Sterling freshman-sophomore group for the second
straight year with a l3 to 6 victory. Dekalb fumbled a ball to present Sterling with a 6 to U
win in the final conference game of the season. Clinton mauled Sterling in the last game of
the year, 33 to 7. The game was played on the Clinton gridiron.
Sterling landed in second place in the final conference standings and developed several out-
standing performers for next year's varsity team.

VARSITY BASKETBALL
The 1941-42 basketball quintet came through their rigid 22-game schedule in satisfying
style, winning ll and losing 11 for a .500 percentage. As did the football squad, the cagers
played under the handicap of a great season the year before, but consistent hard work
led to the ultimate goal of a successful season.
Rock Falls and Freeport started the season with wins from Sterling, 30 to 28, and 40 to 21.
The Sterling five managed to capture the next six games: Clinton was the first to fall in an
overtime battle, 41 to 38. Then, Galesburg was defeated 42 to 37, Community 38 to 18, Dixon
33 to 28, and East Moline 37 to 27. Princeton unexpectedly stopped the parade by an upset
won on their own floor, 41 to 39.
Boone, lowa, making a tour through lllinois, stopped long enough to obliterate Sterling 37 to
27. Waverly, lowa, provided Sterling a chance to see the country, but the lowans defeated
the lllinois boys 35 to 33. Sterling marched down to Moline and back with a 41 to 33 defeat.
The gold five defeated Mendota 33 to 28 for their second conference win on lanuary 9.
The following evening, S.l-1.S. fell at Rockford East 1-ligh, 38 to 30. Thrills abounded in
the Coliseum on lanuary l6 as Sterling won a double over-
time from DeKalb, 45 to 43. Peoria Woodruff next administered
a 45 to 35 defeat. Dixon, always rigorous on their home hard-
wood, gained revenge on Sterling With a 43 to 25 lashing.
Community fought hard against Sterling but was subdued 28
to 24 in their return engagement.
Sterling turned into the home stretch and put on the speed
as they rebuked Princeton 37 to 32, Mendota 30 to l7, and then
hit a snag: Rock Falls 35, Sterling 27. The course was quickly
recovered as Sterling gained a three-way tie for the North
Central lllinois Conference championship by defeating DeKalb
43 to 24. West Rockford rallied to beat Sterling in the regular
season finale, 4l to 37.
A tabulation of the points for all games reveals that Sterling
made one more point than their opponents. Sterling rang
up a total of 741 to their opponents' 740.

FRESHMAN-SOPHCMCRE TRACK
The Sterling freshman-sophomore track squad went through their 1941 schedule without a
defeat chalked against them in four meets. Triis string of victories included the conference
track championship.
lvlilledgeville and Freeport were defeated in the first dual meets of the year. Sterling won as
they piled up 30V2 points. Princeton was second with 34 5-6. Beecher won the 100 yard dash
and the 220 yard dash to place the only firsts for Sterling. The relay team came in second
to Princeton.
ln the final meet of the year, Dixon was defeated in a dual meet, 60 to 53. Anderson, Beitzel,
Beecher, Troye, Badke, and the relay team consisting of Welton, Beitzel, Anderson and
Beecher took first place for Sterling.
CRCSS COUNTRY
After a one year's lapse of activity, the cross-country squad went into action in 1941, under
the direction of E. E. Small. Due to lack of experience, the group did not enjoy a successful
season from the victory standpoint, but gained much track experience.
Two dual meets were held with Kewanee. The Boilermakers won both, one held on their
own lot and the other at the new S.l-l.S cross country at Sinnissippi Heights. A dual meet
with Peoria Woodruff was also held at Sinnissippi Heights. This was won by Peoria. ln a
triangular affair, competing with Peoria Woodruff and Pekin, Sterling came in third: Peoria
Woodruff was first and Pekin, second. Sterling also entered the Peoria invitational meet,
though not represented by the entire squad.
The following boys won cross-country letters: lohn Hunsberger, Kenneth Galloway, Forrest
Olmstead, lohn Scheineman, Bill Taylor, Keith Wells, and Lynn Wildman.
Keith Benson received a managers award.

The l94l golf team met with defeat throughout the regular season of play, losing all l2
matches, but they rose to the realm of glory by winning the district meet at Ottawa, placing
second in the conference meet at Mendota, and being represented in fifth place in the state
meet at Peoria.
ln dual meets with Clinton, Freeport, Kewanee, Dixon, Rochelle, and Princeton, Sterling
lost two to each. Bob Griesser placed fifth in the state meet to bring a climactic ending
to an otherwise disastrous season.

ln the ancient tribes ot redmen,
Squaws were strong and stalwart women:
Now the girls at Sterling high school
Have their organized athletics
To develop strength and rhythm,
To promote good sportsmanship.
ln the autumn months, the maidens
Played the tournament ot tennis
And ot shooting bows and arrows.
Planning with the warriors' "S" club,
They presented tor alumni
The homecoming celebration.
When the winter snows had fallen,
lndoor sports were undertaken:
Bowling in the coliseum,
Volleyball and basketball.
ln the spring they started archery,
Played at sottball, golf and tennis.
Then in May the annual banduet,
Held according to tradition,
Climaxed all the year's attainments.
Here awards were then presented
To the maidens who had earned them,
Thus the G.A.A. year ended.

When they toiled and lived and prospered,
Dwelt the ancient men called Romans,
Far across the big sea Water.
There they built a mighty nation:
There they spoke a cultured language
Studied now by Sterling students.

Meet together in the kitchen,
Where they learn to cook their dinner
Like the squaws who study cooking.
Thus the modern high school Warriors
Learn to cook without can openers
lust as well as any Squaw can.
