TACKETT ENNIS ESTES DR. G. L. ARMSTRONG BOARD GF EDUCATION i THE DRIFT 193 P. T. WALTEBS, Prim-ipul My greatest hope, boys and girls of T. T. H. S.. is that you have ohtained more than an academic training in this school. Your school has heen Worth while to you if it has assisted you in huilding high ideals. amhitions of the right kind, enthusiasm. a sense of fair play. and that something which says. You have shown the way. Now we are ready to go. IIAA Lt T 'l. Im 1935 THE DRIFT FACULTY FACTS The administration and faculty of T. T. H. S. deserve much credit tor the success of the school in achieving its aims. Mr. Walters, his secretaries, the school librarian, Mrs. Hill, and the twenty-four capable instructors work to- gether for the advancement of the school in its various activities. They may well receive the gratitude of the student body. A brief history of each of the instructors under the classification of their respective departments has been compiled. Only after overcoming various obstacles due to biographical modesty have wc become able to gather this in- formation for the benefit of the reader. ENGLISH Mrs. Lucy Ellen Johnson DeHart, to whom this book is dedicated, is from Pana. She, the head of the English Department, is one of the two instructors in this department who are not graduates of T. T. H. S. Mrs. DeHart holds a B. S. degree from the University of Illinois. She had practice teaching under the supervision of Dr. Harry G. Paul, widely known as a literary critic. She studied Shakespeare under the famous Stuart Sherman, whose many interpretations of Shakespeare we have probably had to cope with. Before coming to Taylor- ville Mrs. DeHart taught for one semester at Paris, Illinois. She has been here ten and one-half years and is very fond of reading and gardening. Of course teaching is her vocation, but perhaps housekeeping is her avocation-or trying to fatten a six foot tournament playerf' Miss Mary Lou Holderead of Litchfield was born at Divernon and attended the Litchfield Community High School. She was a student of DePauw Univer- sity for one year and then wcnt on to receive her A. B. from the University of Illinois. During the first five of her eight years here she taught Spanish. While not at her home in Litchfield or at her local residence, the ufacultyw apartments. she pursues the hobby of traveling. Mrs. Aileen Ashbrook Clawson was born in Wayne City, and her high school alma mater we hope to he ours. While a student she was for two years joke editor of the Drift, but she insists that she became sick of jokes. She earned the A. B. degree by attending Christian Collcgc and the Universities of Illinois and Wisconsin. Mrs. Clawson taught one year in Owaneco and has been here five. This year in addition to her duties as an instructor of English she has instituted a new course in public speaking and dramatics. Inasmuch as the planning of the course required much reading it is only natural that Mrs. Clawson accept this as a hobby. Miss Marjorie Henry is another alunma of T. T. H. S. who has made good. Her early life was spent here. She then went to Knox College and Missouri Uni- versity, being given her B. A. degree and taking four summers of graduate work. Miss Henry has had interesting teaching experiences, having taught for a total of eleven years at Coshocton, Uhioz, Houston, Tcxasg Lakeland, Florida, Brevard, North Carolina, and Los Angeles. California. Beading is her favorite hobby. This is Miss Henry's first year at T. T. H. S. since she left us twelve years ago after one year on the faculty. Twenty-1 l THE DRIFT 1935 Miss Helen Broverman was born in Springfield, but she is still another alumna of the institution of learning for which this is written fthe high school English department must have been almost as good in those days as it is now to produce three such gifted instructors of the English languagel. Miss Brover- man was a student at Christian College, one course at McKendree College, the Universities of Illinois and Wisconsin, Western Reserve, and Northwestern University. She was given the B. A. degree and has had three summers of grad- uate work. She had taught five years at the local West School and the Uwaneco High School before coming here this year. Miss Broverman is interested in interpretive readings and drama. At one time she was occupied in clerical work. SCIENCE Mr. Roy L. Webb, Dean of Boys, was born in Cass County, Missouri, and went to school at Raymore. He received his B. S. in Education from the Central Missouri State Teachers' College. Mr. Webb has had one summer of graduate work and nine years previous teaching experience: two years in rural Missouri, one in a grade school, and six years in high school. He has taught chemistry, biology, physics and general science at T. T. H. S. during the last fifteen years. The physics class this year has proved to be quite a family affair through his daughteris membership. Mr. Webb's hobbies come under the classification of Htinkeringf' The game in which he takes an active part in all seasons is croquet which he plays with all the skill of a physicist. Mr. Webb is probably the cham- pion tennis player among both teachers and students. Mr. Joe L. McAdan1 was reared in Pana. He has proved loyal, however, by serving as our coach for seven years, and after leaving us a year he returned from the University of Illinois a full fledged Bachelor of Science and biology teacher which he has been for three years. He also taught two years in Pawnee before coming here. Mr. McAdan1 is working toward a Master's degree and spends his summers and many week ends in Champaign. He has had three sum- mers of graduate work. Mr. McAdan1 is active in athletics as a football coach and basketball official, being football coach of the Midland Athletic Club. He is also a good tennis player when he has the time to practice. This year Mr. McAdan1 has aided Mr. Wlebb by dealing out yellow slips to the boys after the noon hour. The peppicst man in schooli' both at Taylorville and other times in his ca- reer is Mr. Chesleigh L. Garard of Quincy. Mr. Garard was born at Burnside, Illinois, and attended the Mendon Township High School. He holds the A. B. degree, having attended Carthage College and the Universities of Illinois and Wisconsin. At Wisconsin he took one summer of work. Mr. Garard made very high grades while in school and was interested in debate, dramatics, glee club work, and managing athletics while in the University. He is a founder of the Boosters, organization at Carthage College. Because of his activities he was elected to a number of honorary organizations at Illinois. His chief interest out- side of his vocation is athletics. He is interested in wrestling and is a basketball official besides furthering T. T. H. S. athletics by selling tickets and furnishing transportation-even driving with one arm. Mr. Garard may have been employed in an ice cream store at one time. He also lived in Missouri and taught three years at Carthage before coming to Taylorville High School. He teaches general science and has been here six years.

Thompson was born at Bardolph, Illinois, and attended the high school at Macomb, where he graduated from Western Illinois State Teachers College in 1931 as a B. Ed. It is said that Mr. Thompson was so busy making an excellent scholastic record, editing the college annual, and serving as president of four organizations that he weighed only one hundred twenty-five pounds upon graduating. Mr. Thompson is an outstanding vocalist, having sung for three years in his college glee club and being active in local church music in addition to leading our glee club. Music is his avocation, chemistry his vocation. We are fortunate in having had Mr. Thompson at T. T. H. S. for the last-four years, and he must like Taylorville. Didn't he find a wife here? MATHEMATICS I Miss Margery B. Terriere was born in Minneapolis, Minnesota, where she attended high school. She studied at the Universities of Minnesota and Wiscon- sin and at Chicago and Columbia Universities. She received the A. B. degree and has taken graduate work for two summers. Before coming to Taylorville Miss Terriere taught two years at Kasota, Minnesota. She has been here twenty- two years as an instructor of the various kinds of algebra and geometry. She is in charge of many activities of the Senior Class. Miss Terriereis hobby is playing bridge, and you can be sure that she does not trump her partneris aces. She also likes to travel, having been to Alaska and many parts of the United States. Miss Terriere makes her home in Taylorville. Mr. Ralph E. Thornton, our many sided mathematics instructor, was born at Chesterville, Illinois, and attended the Arcola High School. He became a Rector scholar at DePauw University, receiving the A. B. degree. At first he wanted to become a physician but later changed his course. Mr. Thornton had one summer of graduate work at the University of Illinois. He has taught mathematics at T. T. H. S. for eight years. A few of his hobbies show his versa- tility.

GRACE HILL Z ' Z f . .. lvcdl '-nn '-+1 THE DRIFT 1935 HISTORY OF YE CONQUERING HEROES Now when ye Lorde of ye Olde Highe Schoole, even ye Professyr Walters, bethought him of ye foe, Ignorance, which lurked red-eyed and fiery-tongued throughout ye surrounding country and which year after year came whiffing through ye halls of ye T. T. H. S., he gat him from his hed and sent forth a call, a plea for volunteers. Eftsoons a whole host was clean able to answer ye Lordeis summons-people from Seniorland, luniorland, Sophomore Island, and Freshie Prairies-yea, even from .lanitor Sea and Professional Mountains. Now it happened that all these peoples had met and struggled with ye dragon in previous years except the Freshies from Freshie Prairies. The afore- said Freshies were quite grasslike-i. e., vivid green-and so young and tender that the dragon devoured many of them with great relish ere they were aware of his fiendish appetite. But though they be young and green the Freshies were a noble band and mighty and right valiantly did they attack this death-dealing dragon. Sometimes by skillful strategy and military tactics fled by Pres. Wil- liam Salhaney, V. P. .loe Brasche, Sec. Albert Hendricks, Treas. Wilma Stevensl together with courage and bluff, they succeeded in wounding ye enemy hut never did they kill him. Always he came hack. Ere spring had lent her youthful smile to brighten ye Portals, ye enemy was sore exhausted-stille more sore exhausted were ye Freshies. So ye Pro- fessyrs gave each individual member of ye host long sheets of papyrus, each sentence thereon followed hy huge interrogation marks. Then ye Lorde called alle together and spake unto them thus: Right faithfully have ye fought. Go now and rest ye for a while. They alle retired with joyful hearts. Three months did they rest themselves before they returned to the battle field ready for ye fray. And behold! they found a great epidemic of sopho- moritis passing among them during which they suffered a great exaggeration of ideas concerning the vastness of their own powers and they found it exceed- ingly difficult to adjust the helmets to ye muchly increased heads. Great la- mentation was among all ye Profs and those who watched ye struggle, for while this fever raged ye fearful Fiend, Ignorance, still gorged on ye hloode of alle ye struggling people and his sway over ye land was strengthened, and verily was his prowess to he feared. Through the battle, however, ye peoples saw, spring- ing forth on ye olde gridiron, warriors of high degree-veritably, 'Snag', 'Elmerl and Gene. And when ye foe was resting yet awhile ,lack Stokes did entertain the Sewing Club to the enjoyment of all the ranks. Among those present were Tommy Hickman, Gordon Achenhach, Homer Allen, and Gail Mcward. There were also many other numbers on this Christmas program. Thenvye epidemic raged once again. Thirty T' ff SN 1935 THE DRIFT Finally in despair, ye Profs sought to check ye dreadful slaughter of ye Sophs tfor such had they been termcdb by sending them to .luniorland to re- cuperate. When they had sojourned there some hundrede days, ye tribe re- turned resolutely bearing ye name of Juniors. They came refreshed like daisies to ye Portals of T. T. H. S. to find ye halls still alle besmirched with ye bloode of ye dragon's victims. Ye dragon stille raged, with eyes aflalne and mouthe agape for ye next victims. And then ye real battele began! With ye advisors, Miss Ellen Orr and Mr. C. L. Garard, ye tribe chose Gene DeRochi, Madaline Stephenson, Marcella Estes, and Albert Hendricks to lead them in a strategetic attack against this gory beast. For months they struggled. At times tespecial- ly at ye ends of terms, when alle ye exam papers were streaked with bloode, red and dreadful! it seemed inevitable that lgnorance must win. Ye climax came on February 9th when 'LThat Lucas Family gave ye foe a fit of hysteria for a while. Ye east was .lack Stokes, Gail McWard, Helen Webb, Betty Greene, Tommy Hickman, Gail Busch, Ruth Welsh, Marcus Hertel, Homer Allen, Clo- rine Fabbri, and Laura Aull. Then ye Juniors sponsored a High-student alumni dance on December 21. And when ye end of May did approach, ye bands of noble warriors saw ye foe was most grievously wounded, so they did call forth the peoples of Seniorland unto a beautiful ballroom decorated in black and white and silver. When ye celebration was over they departed for a few weeks among ye mountains of Seniorland. Then in September, when ye red-gold of ye sunset lingered long o'er ye snow- capped mountains of Seniorland, when ye west wind blew quietly with ye sweet fragrance, and ye wild beautie of ye trees dipped and beckoned to alle-then when nature was so alluring in Seniorland-ye band of warriors left ye lovely out-of-doors and came for ye fourth time to ye Halls of T. T. H. S. to ye never ceasing conflict with ye fiery dragon of Ignorance. For months they strove mightily and nobly, and gradually was ye sway of ye demon weakened. Howbeit, it was not until ye Semester number 1I had come that ye final struggle was made. lt was not a day for war, but ye dragon seemed to be rallying from wounds he had received in recent conflicts, and ye Seniors wisely sought to strike while ye advantage was theirs. With their lead- ers-Albert Hendricks, Kathleen Ganey, Maxine Achenbach, and Bob Hopson-- ye hoste arrayed in battle against ye foe, and a long time did they fight. From early morning until much night did they fight. Fire darted in all directions from ye cavernous mouthe of ye demon, his monstrous taile lashed furiously, his eyes gleamed fiendishly, and his terrific roars shook ye building and shat- tered ye windows. They stopped only to rest while the dragon was retreating a bit and entertained great hosts of people with Ye Private Tutor . Those who were in ye Aurora Borealis were: .lack Stokes, Emory Winner, Gail Mc- Ward, Charles Filson, Betty .lane Walters, Helen Embrofchan, Helen Webb, and Leonard Burton. The Stars and Comets were Pat Shanks, Homer Allen, Everett Thirty-one THE DRIFT 1935 Peters, Marcus Hertel, Laura Aull, D. Betty Greene, Mary Stroh, and Marion Welch. Then the fray raged on again. And when ye dragon was quite breath- less, ye Seniors hurtled on him, shouting: We have met the enemy, and he' is ours. I Yea! Ignorance was conquered-nay, more, he was slain. And so allei ye studynts gathered and chose a queen for ye Feto of the May. As worthy of this high position was chosen Marcella Estes, with Madeline Stephenson as Maid of Honor. Then Professyr Walters called unto him this loyal host of valiant warriors and praised them for their diligent fight. Sir Outstanding Studynt was given the hand of Princess Hygrade and each warrior received a partner from the olde family of Diploma that they might live happily for ever after, that through the fights she represented life's larger battles might be easier. And so out onto life's battlefield went the host of '35 leaving hehind them triumphant cries and many happy memories with their friends at olde T. T. H. S.

Here in this court, welve founcl Great happiness which we are loath to leave So soon-Let us be young forever, Loving life and laughter always.

Shnmmay. Taylor. Greene. May STANDING: Mrs.DeHarl. Anil. Mr. Clausen, Walters, Locke. Williams. Stokes. Dnzier, MrW'ard. Fisrller. Montgomery, Webb THE DRIFT The 1935 Drift was made possible through the incessant labors of nineteen students and two faculty members. From the taking of senior pictures until the last page of proof was returned to the printer there was work to be done. each individual having his part to do. The Drift is financed in several ways but largely by the sale of the hooks. More than fifty percent of the students purchase copies. Business men buy Drifts to have their commercial cards inserted, and dances are a source of revenue. The staff, under Mr. Clausen's management, has done its best to make the 1935 Drift a model yearbook which every owner may cherish. A tradition of the school is the liberal decorating of the book with signatures and 'remember 1ne's'-adding to its sentimental value. The Drift was first published twenty-three years ago in 1912-1913, when the school had but two hundred fifty students and while Prof. R. G. Beals was principal, under the leadership of Frances Powel, daughter of W. A. Powel, as Editor-in-Chief. A. Hunter White, the first Business Manager., was given much of the credit for launching the first volume. After the seven members of the staff were appointed the existing name of the book was suggested by Miss Edith Lowry, a very capable English instructor tnow Mrs. Victor Miehr of Tulsa, Uklahomal. Originally few seniors were on the staff. The Drift has come to be considered the publication of the Senior Much of the history and development of the school may be found on the pages of the old, highly valued Drifts.

School Spirit calls you, loyalty demands it, and curiosity-well, we're all human, so letis stop for a visit. I wonder how much we really know about our library. If I judge rightly, we need to look around a bit. A A About fourteen years ago somebody 'athunkn a thought, and evidently such animals were rare, so he hung on to it. As a result we have our library on the second floor of T. T. H. S. and Mrs. Grace Hill is the librarian. fDo you realize that your ancestors at T. T. H. S. did not enjoy the privilege of a library?J We are permitted to use the library any time of day, besides being a refuge from study hall depression, it is a place where we may secure all kinds of excellent material and bright ideas for themes and special reports. -Yes, we know all that, but how much more I wonder. Try this for a did you know column: f . - Did you know that: l. Of the three thousand five hundred and fifty volumes in the library there is an average of two hundred and twenty-five in circulation? 2. Every student uses the library some time during the day, two hundred and seventy-five spending an hour or more there? 3. Mrs. Hill, a former student at the University of Illinois, has been li- brarian for twelve and one-half years? 4. About one dozen of the most popular current periodicals are taken for our use besides magazines for the agricultural -department? GREAT CAESAR'S GHOST! Yes, that's right too, because before the present literary ghosts inhabited it, this room was used as alrecess for people who wanted to release their thoughts and emotions in Latin and in terms of Caesar. The library was in Miss Dale's- room 'til about nine years ago, when it was moved to its present position. In addition to books, the library contains trophies representing all phases of our school life-athletics, literature, music, home economics, and agriculture. Besidesm the forty trophies in the library, there are numerous others stored in odd nooks and crannies of the school. 4 Do you know that, if you aspire to mysterious antiques and musty, dingy articles mellowed with age, you can find such a problem here in our library? A trophy-no one knows how old it is! It is preserved in a glass case that T. T. H. S. chemists couldn't duplicate if they would, let alone give its formula. Archeologists have conjured with the Great Spirit to send them a solution, but to no avail.- The general supposition is that a noble band of mighty athletes journeyed to Litchfield about thirty years ago and received the trophy as a reward for their manly efforts. Whether or not this be true, it remains in our library as a challenge to greater achievements today. Have you seen it? So whether you be a seeker of knowledge, adventure, relaxation, or of entertainment you will find the answer to your quest at the door of your own library! You will find the proper atmosphere for any indulgence with which you may care to gratify your wishes. The only thing disturbing is the incessant whirring of the wheels of those T. T. H. S. master brains. However, you will soon become accustomed to this. So see our library first! Fifty-four M 'R ' , .-..z,n.1.li:!1l -ra-'fi-...l, , ,...,. 1 l.'. 1935 ITHE DRI THE LIBRARY.

For many years there has been only one class with 10073 attend- ance. That is the class of 1894 of which there were only two members, Mrs. E. E. Adams and Miss Mabel Torrey-the first class to be graduated from this school. .lust to see how high school education has progressed during the past 45 years, notice the increase in the number of graduates from T.

The alumni association has been more active since Mr. Walters has been principal of the school. In the spring of 1929 an alumni directory was prepared. This directory was largely made possible by the efforts of Miss Terriere. It is said that Miss Terriere combed the building from attic to basement to find material for this book. It contains a short history of the school and a list of all graduates and their present addresses. It was given to all those graduates who could be located. After the class of 1935 has been graduated the graduates of our own T. T. H. S. will number over 2,000. Two thousand people are more fitted for this world's work because some pioneers in education conceived the idea of a Taylor- ville Township High School. UNKNOWN WORKERS The group of students which has probably done more for T. T. H. S. activi- ties than any other student body in the school has received little or no recog- nition for its efforts. For many school affairs these students have built stage settings and constructed objects for decorative purposes and for the use of the school. They are the one hundred twenty-seven members of Mr. Card's manual training department. These boys divide their time equally between the work shop and mechanical drawing room, and several now taking this course are the most outstanding in Mr. Card's sixteen years of teaching. The club which the department has formed and its work are valuable to boys who are interested in architectural and mechanical engineering. Fifty-six Ei.

Two diamonds were laid out on the athletic field and each team played a six game schedule on successive Thursday evenings. The L'Sod Bustersf, captained by former State Farmer Harold Noren, won the championship. This proved to be a very popular activity and will probably be repeated. Basketball was another enjoyable F. F. A. activity. The first team broke about even in its games, while the second team lost but one game. T. T. H. S. judging teams have not been particularly successful during the past year, but the boys have maintained their splendid showing in the Section Fairs. In addition to the numerous prizes and ribbons won, Frederick Warehanl was awarded the swine '4Showmanship ribbon, and Henry Berck the sheep 'GShowmanship ribbon at the livestock fair. The members are particularly proud of the showing made with Duroc hogs. Members or alumni of the club have won first in the Duroc Gilt Class in the Junior Department of the State Fair for five successive years. and during these five years have won three firsts, a second, and a third on their uCounty Exhibit of Durocs at the State Fair.

Asbury, Conductor Oscar Huyghe, Student Conductor CONCERT BAND At the national band contest at Des Moines on May 30, June 1 and 2, 1934, the T. T. H. S. Concert Band was one of three placing in second division. As only one band was in first division, this is a very high rating. April 6, 1935, the band won its seventh consecutive district contest in its eight years of existence. Under Mr. Asbury's leadership Taylorville has never lost a district contest. The state contest on May 4, 1935, became the third state contest to be won by the band. There will be no national contest this year, but it was hoped that the band could qualify this year for next year's national, probably to be held at Washington, D. C., thereby not being required to com- pete in the district and state contests next year. This was accomplished in 1932, but stiff competition prevented its repetition, two other bands, also ranked in first division in 1935 at the state contest, were given this eligibility ranking. According to these results Taylorville should be the leading contender next year and will have greater chance to reach the national. Three members of the band were chosen to play in the All-state Orchestra in November-namely: ,lack Scott, trombone, Mary Purkes, bassoon, Ruth Martin fsubstitute for Wilma Stephensl , French horn. Jack Stokes was cymbal player for the clinic band which played for the National Band Masters Meet at Urbana and was selected from Illinois high schools. Taylorville was asked to play for the student directors contest while at Urbana. After three and one half hours of following the different techniques of the future 4'Sousas the band was dismissed, its members having learned that student directors are not always polite young musicians. Mr. Nearing, instructor of eornet and clarinet, and Mr. Asbury have been very patient in working with the band and trying to perfect it to a high degree. It has been said that 'ano band can play over its director, but our director does make the band play its very best. GERMAN BAND The most important function of this group of musicians was to furnish the musical setting for the Senior play, '6The Private Tutor. The members of this well-known band are: Marcus Hertel, Corky Stuart, Bob Stroh, Dale Durbin. and Leonard Burton. ORCHESTRA, The only duties which the orchestra was called upon to perform were those of playing for the Junior and Senior plays. The orchestra was placed under great handicaps this year because of the lack of violinists in the school. It is interesting to note that the violin and cello are the only instruments used in the orchestra which are not present in the band. We will have to leave it to the classes of '36, '37, '38, and '39 to furnish the school with good orchestra music. it F i fly-nine THE DRI FT 1935 Wooflwinrl I nstru nwntatiun I E Flat Clarilwl 25 B Flat Clnrinvls fi .Hin Clarilwrs 2 Bass Clarilwts 2 Ulnws -1 Bussuuns 6 Flulvs I l,il'l'0IU CU CERT BAND 2 .-Illo Sal7IIllhllllf'S 2 Tvnor Sfuvzphulws I Bnritmw S!l.X'0lIhUIIl' FIRST ROW: I .

It is through this organization that the foundations of study for the development of real musicians are presented. Here they first hear about precision, releases, attacks, a round, full tone, and many other technicalities of music, but the greatest lesson to be learned from any organization of this kind is whole-hearted co-operation with the director and with each other.

JAMES September 15 The Purple and, Gold started their football season' by playing the St. James School of Trades. Taylor- ville won by a score of 12 to 6. The touchdowns in this game were made by Lambert and Barra. This practice game gave Coach .lohnson a chance to look over his material while in action. CLINTON September 22 The T. T. H. S. came through with another victory. Again touch- downs were made by Lambert and Barra. The team as a whole showed much improvement, especially the linemen. The boys won revenge against Clinton because Clinton beat Taylorville 13 to 0 last year. DIVERNON September 29 Taylorville won their t h i r d straight Pre-Conference tilt from Di- vernon by exactly the same score they beat ,k,, us the year before, 25-0. The feature of this game was the 85 yard run by Barra, when he intercepted a Divernon pass. Touchdowns were made by Barra, Delilochi and Lam- bert, Barra making two. Barra also kicked the extra point after the touch- down. AUBURN October 5 The local team met its first defeat of the year by taking the small end of the 31-0 score at the hands of Auburn. Auburn caught the local crew nap- ping and beat them but not without a vicious battle throughout the game. STAUNTON October 12 Johnsonis lads lost their first Con- ference game by a narrow margin of a point after a touchdown on Staun- ton's lighted field. Connolly, Taylor- ville quarterback, made Taylorville's touchdown, but the try for extra point failed. Sly HILLSBORO October 19 The T. T. H. S. dedicated the new lighted Athletic field with an appro- priate program. This was the first football game ever played at night on the local field. It was attended by a very large crowd despite the fact that a heavy rain fell an hour before the game. The Purple and Gold Gridders played the best game of the season that far against their fast step- ping opponents and made the only mar of Hillsboro's season, a scoreless tie. NOKOMIS October 20 Taylorville lost another Confer- ence game when Nokomis took the big end of a 25-0 score. Nokomis, playing by far the most powerful of- fense they had played all year, proved too much for the locals. Fer- fecky, the Nokomis star, did the high scoring for the Nokomis team, ASSUMPTION November 2 Taylorville handed Assumption a tamping by crossing the goal line 5 times and making good 3 extra points after touchdowns. This game was played on the local field at night. As- sumption failed to score against the Taylorville team. Again Coach John- son let almost his entire crew partici- pate in this game. As the final whistle blew, Taylorville had a score of 33 points to Assumption's nothing. PANA November 12 The T. T. H. S. gridders met their rivals of all sports and defeated thein 13 to 0. This evened things up as Pana defeated Taylorville in '33 by a similar 13 to 0 score. Lambert and Barra made the touchdowns for the locals, and Barra kicked the point after the touchdown. This brought to a close the 1934 Purple and Gold football season. , QVQQCA vr , , .. . , ' , , - T 1' Ah' Y VYVV KV ight , Y is Q- E . .. . .Q ' -.J fi:-1 -1 'lei -IlhIi 'ItI-fm 1935 THE DRIFT VIEWS OF PANA ARMISTICE DAY GAME Ready for Battle!

A lighting system was installed, c o s t i n g approximately 55l,500, to illuminate 11 acres of ground, making outdoor sports pos- sible at night. The field contains bleachers, with a seating capacity of 1600, a baseball diamond, football field, a quarter mile track, and space for tennis courts. Our athletic field, laid out in 1928, is modeled after that of the University of Illinois. Hlts facilities make it one of the best in the entire state, the Assistant State Superintendent of Public Instruction, Mr. Belting, wrote in his report of inspection. Mr. Belting recommended to the high school hoard the construction of a new high school on additional ground at this site. ,, A AA THE DRIFT 1935 Couch , HAROLD E. JOHNSON Captain GAII, M1'WARlJ.

The squad was cut after several weeks of practice--one of' the hardest things a coach has to do. Being cut from the squad does 1101 mean there is no chance to make next year's team. Be one of the first to report next season. Although T. T. H. S. finished fifth in the South Central Conference, an all time record was set in finishing second in the Decatur Sectional. Four tournaments were entered in which Setfenly we won ten games and lost only two: Litchfield Blind Tourney, second place: Christian County, firstg Pana District. first, Decatur Sectional, sec- ond. A sizeable sum of money was received for this success in tourna- ments. As to the Sectional-we can al- ways say it took a state champion to put us out of the running. Baker and Hendricks were placed on the all- sectional team. Next year Baker, Davidson, Long, Moler, Gancy, B. Mcwarfl, and Coch- ran will be outstanding among the experienced candidates. ' sm. , ,,B Ai 'Et' ' . 4' V... X THE DRI BASKETBALL GAMES By MERLE AHLBERG OWANECO November 23 Taylorville opened the Cage season by defeating Owaneco in their annual Homecoming by a score of 19 to 12. The locals showed fine form and seemed to be in good shape de- spite the fact that they had only one week's practice before the game. OVVANECO November 27 The Purple and Gold again trounced Owaneco in their return game on the local floor. The home boys showed much improvement, beating their opponent by a 26 to 8 score. VA NDALIA December 1 Taylorville High's next foe was Vandalia. This game turned out to be a thriller with the locals coming out on top 17 to 16. The game was nip and tuck from the starting whistle to the final bang', of the gun. MT. AUBURN December 7 Taylorville won their first con- ference game from Mt. Olive by a score of 30 to 23. The local second team won their game by a 34 to 4 score. Iron Man Baker led the lo- cals in scoring in the main game mak- ing 17 of 30 points. CLINTON December 14 Taylorville lost its first game to Clinton by a one point margin. Clin- ton won the game by its stalling type of basketball playing. The game was hard fought from start to finish. Fail- ing to make good all of its free throws cost Taylorville the game. BEMENT December 21 The Purple and Gold cagers rapped Bement by a score of 32 to 9. Again Baker led the locals in the scor- ing making a total of 13 points. Bob Mcwiard and Connolly were next with 4 and 6 points respectively. WITT December 22 The ,lohnsonites lost their second game in 7 starts when the Witt team left them on the small end of a 27 to 22 score. The second team came through by defeating the Witt seconds 31 to 9. KINCAID December 26 Both the Taylorville first and sec- ond teams' won over the Kincaid first and second teams respectively. The first team won to the tune of 48 to 6 and the seconds to the tune of 49 to 6. AssUMPT1oN 2 Detgembel- 28 T. T. H. S. defeated Assumption on their home floor by a score of 24 to 22. Baker again led in scoring for the locals piling up 11 of the 24 points. The seconds were also victorious, win- ning by a score of 29 to 19. LITCHFIELD TOURNAMENT January 1 Taylorville received an invitation to participate in the tourney at Litch- field, taking place on New Year's Day. There were four teams entered, nam- ely, Hillsboro, Greenville, Taylorville, and Litchfield. The teams entered didn't know whom they were to play until an hour before the first game. Taylorville drew Litchfield, and Hills- boro was placed against Greenville. Taylorville won from the host 34 to 24, and Hillsboro won from Green- ville by a score of 38 to 20. Paired to fight it out for the finals, Hillsboro emerged victorious by a score of 35 to 17. Hillsboro was first, Taylorville, second, Litchfield, third, and Green- ville, fourth. CLINTON January 5 The Taylorville lads again went down to defeat at the hands of Clin- ton. Once again they were beaten by a one point margin. This time both Sly Alxtk ,,,, .. s wx xx -3 w THE DRIFT 1935 teams raised their scores, and when the final shot was fired the Taylorville Lads were trailing 16 to 15. Taylor- ville was unable to break up the same old stalling method Clinton had used in the first encounter. VANDALIA January 11 The T. T. H. S. basketball squad drew two games, both away from home, on the same night. Coach Johnson divided his squad and in re- turn they split games. The squad that journeyed to Mt. Olive came through leading by a 20 to 13 score. This made another Conference game to Taylorville's credit. The team that went to Vandalia under the super- vision of Mr. Garard did not come out so well. They took the small end of the 37 to 22 score. NOKOMIS January 15 Taylorville lost its first Conference tilt to Nokomis by a score of 23 to 17. A strong third quarter rally proved too much for the locals and cinched the game for Nokomis. PANA January 18 In football as in basketball! Tay- lorville defeated its rival, Pana, in basketball by a score of 25 to 22. Baker and Moler led the scoring for the locals. With this victory another Conference game was added to Tay- lorville's credit. HILLSBORO .lanuary 25 The local high school advanced to second place in the South Central Conference standings by winning the fast Hillsboro game. It took an over- time period to decide, but Taylorville emerged Victorious 21 to 20. Baker and Hendricks led the scoring, each making 6 points. The Hillsboro sec- onds defeated the Taylorville seconds 35 to 12. GILLESPIE January 28 Taylorville and Gillespie battled the whole evening to come out a tie. The first overtime period left them still together. The second did like- wise, and so did the third. This is the first time in the history of the lo- S I cal high school a game has been called a tie! The game was called off until a later date. CHRISTIAN COUNTY TOURNA- MENT February 1., 2 Taylorville High won the Chris- tian County Tourney by defeating Pana in the final game. Taylorville was in the hardest brackets and won all of its games by narrow margins, defeating Assumption, Morrisonville. and Pana. NOKOMIS February 8 Taylorville High defeated No- komis on the local floor by a score of 28 to 24. This game, being a con- ference tilt, brought Taylorville up to a tie for first place in the South Central Conference with Staunton. The Taylorville seconds held their reputation also and conquered the Nokomis seconds 31 to 8. PANA February 15 Pana preps outplayed the locals to win by a score of 28 to 21. This loss gave Staunton the undisputed claim on first place in the conference, as the locals dropped back to second place. Baker was high point man with 10 points, and Dellochi was next with 6 The Taylorville seconds lost a thriller to the Pana seconds by a score of 19 to 17. lt took three over- time periods to decide. Long and Mc- Ward did the high scoring for the Taylorville seconds, each getting a total of 5 points. BEMENT February 16 Taylorville preps added another victory to their credit when they handed Bement the short end of a 19 to 15 score. Both teams took every scoring chance possible, but the locals outplayed Bement to win by 4 points. Baker led the locals in scoring by ringing up 5 field goals for a total of 10 points. HILLSBORO February 22 The Hillsboro crew upset the Purple and Gold cagers by a score of 28 to 24.

A- gain Baker leads the locals in scoring by dropping in 4 field goals and 3 free shots for a total of 11 points. GILLESPIE February 26 The Gillespie boys nipped Tay- lorville by a margin of 4 points win- ning the game 21 to 17. The Johnson charges held their own the first half of the game, but they were unable to stop Gillespie in the final part. This game gave Gillespie the undisputed third place, while Staunton and Hills- boro tied for first place in the confer- ence. Baker was high point man for the locals with 6 points. Moler, Deflochi, and Hendricks were the next high scorers. GILLESPIE March 1 Gillespie h a n d e d Taylorville its second defeat of the week when the local lads dropped a 24 to 21 tilt to the lads from Macoupin county. Taylorville led by 4 points the first quarter, but Gillespie was ahead by 4 points at the half, a lead which Tay- lorville was never able to overcome. This was the last game before the dis- trict tournament at Pana. PANA DISTRICT TOURNAMENT Taylorville High won its first round game from Kincaid by a score of 44 to 25. All men taken to the tournament were used, scoring when- ever they wanted to. In the semi- finals against Nokomis Taylorville took a lead of 8 to 7 at the end of the first quarter, this making the contest look like everyone's goose. The score at half-time was 15 to 7 in favor of Taylorville, the third quarter ended Springfield 46 20 to ll: the final score was 28 to 16. Taylorville captured its second straight district basketball title, by de- feating its old rivals, Pana 23 to 21. This was one of the best games the fans have witnessed in many years on the Pana floor, with almost every kind of basketball being played. Tay- lorville overcame a ten point lead by scoring 15 straight points in the third quarter. Pana again led 21 to 19, but two more baskets defeated them. DECATUR SECTIONAL Coach .lohnson's Purple and Gold cagers staged a stirring rally in the last four minutes of the first round game at Decatur to defeat Urbana, 17 to 13, and thus won the right to play Bement in the semi-finals. The Taylorville preps defeated Bement by a score of 20 to 19. For the first time in the history of the Taylorville Town- ship High School they appeared in the sectional finals. Johnson's cagers held the much larger Peterman crew on even terms until Taylorville wilted in the latter part of the third period, and lost by a score of 37 to 12. Despite its final score, this game was by far the hardest test the Peter- man coached lads had thus far en- countered in their march toward the state championship. While the local lads put up a marvelous defense and took advantage of every scoring opportunity, they were extremely unfortunate in their free throws as they accounted for only 2 points out of 14 attempts, while Springfield scored 9 times out of ll throws.

Many schools such as Quincy, Decatur, Pana, Hillsboro, As- sumption, Petersburg and Stonington answered the notice to compete. Our boys getting away to an early start showed up very well for such little practice. The Purple and Gold team scored 30M points and went into a tie for third place with Assumption. Quincy won the meet with 'ww points. It is understood this meet will bc an annual affair at the Taylorville athletic field. FIVE WAY MEET April 20 ln the second meet of the season Shelbyville placed first, Pana, secondg Taylorville, thirdg A s s u m p t i o n, fourth, and Nokomis, fifth. A travel- ing trophy, that goes to the winner each year was won by Shelbyville from Pana, who won it the first year this meet existed. When a school wins this trophy three years in a row. it gains permanent possession. CHRISTIAN COUNTY April 26 A new plan was used at the Chris- tian County Meet which seemed to work out successfully. The prelimi- naries were run in the afternoon and the finals at night, under our new lights. Of course the usual rain storm came up and scared the people away. Much improvement was shown in the track events, while T. T. H. S. had little success in the field events. Taylorville, with 26 points, placed second to Pana, which had 36, among the eight schools that competed. Tay- lorville won the relay and four first places: Bechtel., the 220 and 440g Baker, the milcg Picchi, 220 low hurdles. FUTURE TRACK MEETS May 3, the South Central Meet is to be held at Taylorville. May 11 the T. T. H. S. track team will leave home for the first meet held away, the district at Jacksonville. The state will be at Urbana, May 18. Plans are being made for a Relay Carnival to be held here May 25 at night. One hundred invitations are to be sent to schools in this vicinity. d I A 4 K X 'vrvlrlv-lnur ...H ..

BETTY GREENE To the girls who have graduated and to those who are graduating, the Girls' Athletic Association and its activities are sure to be one of the most pleasant memories of high school days. The sports, plays, and parties are always a lot of fun to the girls, but, while participating, thev are unconsciously developing a spirit ot fair play and good sportsmanship that will last them throughout their whole lives. The main sports of this year were baseball, basketball, and volleyball. The Freshmen trampled down all opposition and strode to victory in baseball, even defeating the post graduates. The Seniors were champions in basketball. The volleyball tournament was not completed. The aim in these sports is to develop grace, poise, and skill, to play hard and fair, and not least of all, to learn how to 'Atake it', when being defeated. The officers of this year were: president, Marcella Estes, vice president. Louise Stephenson, secretary, Maxine Achenbachg treasurer, Marie McClughan. The activities were cut short in April by the death of our teacher, Miss Alice Baker. She was the most dearly loved teacher of the girls, and her sin- cerity and sweetness endeared her to everyone who knew her. To the girls she was at once teacher, friend, and confidante. Although she is gone, her influence on her pupils, both boys and girls, will live on,' and be a living tribute that is more fitting than any stone memorial could be.

The bookkeeping class is now held in another room of the school. These changes enlarged the facilities of the commercial department, where courses of immediate practical value are taught by Miss Eaton and Mr. Dorris. COUNTY CONTESTS By HELEN WEBB lwith apologies to Williatxl Shakespearcb Friends, Romans, countrymen, lend me your ears: I come to bury contests, not to praise them. The evil that men do lives after them, The good is oft interred with their bones, So let it be with contests. This noble author Hath told you the entrants were ambitious: If it were so, it was a grievous fault, And grievously hath the entrants answer'd it. Yet the author says they were ambitious And surely she is an honorable woman. I speak not to disprove what the entrants spoke, But here I am to speak what I do know. You all did love them once, not without cause: What cause withholds you then, to mourn for them? U judgment! thou are fled to brutish beasts, And men have lost their reason. Bear with me, My heart is in the depths with the entrants, And I must pause till it comes back to me. Eighly ., .'.... ,. . X, M 'WH 1 if9f3f5 THE DRIFT COMMERCIAL TEAMS FRONT ROW: Kaslelic, Welsh.

Mrs Smythe-Kerscy tried to promote the wedding of Larry and Vivian., thinking Larry had a fortune. Uncle Aleck stood by Charlie throughout her experiences. There was rivalry between Vivian and Charlie for Larry's affections. Charlie went to college and returned completely changed from a mountain girl to a co-ed. She, of course, then won Larry's love.

Betty Greene Hans Dinklederfer Gail McWard Pat Shanks Richard Leonard Burton Marian Welcli Miss Snap Helen Embrofchan Mary Stroh This was the first year that Mr. Thorntonis idea of two casts has been tried, and we feel that it worked favorably. The play begins at Clearfield College, where Fred and George have been suspended for thirty days. When Mother and Dad appear unexpectedly, they hire the leader of a German band as private tutor, and there is a uhot time in the old town tonighti' itil Dad and Mother find that the German is neither a count, nor a private tutor. George, becomes interested in Dolly, complicating matters somewhat. Then the detective, Miss Snap, appears with a warrant for Fred's ar- rest for killing Germany.'7 The truth of the whole matter is learned. Fred is put to work at the oil well which keeps the Spencers' in affluence. Dad tells George to come back after he is through school, and 'LGermany is taken back to his position as leader of a little German band. Fgly .f ,.., 1 :....r'2f?' lem.

The school had been without one for the year and without an organized department for several years. It was decided to give the first semester to public speaking and the fundamentals of speech and the second half of the year to dramatics, under the direction of Mrs. Clawson. Two classes, a total of about thirty students, enrolled and studied hard that they might learn to speak when spoken toi'-as well as other forms of speaking, impromptu, extemporaneous, etc. Each Friday was devoted to open forum discussions, mock trials, debates, and other side lines of public speaking which already have proved valuable to us many times. The class has used the library for public speaking reference books and to read plays. The first public presentation was given as a drawing card to the Thanks- giving alumni dance. Two short skits from the movie HThe Gift of Gab were presented and heartily enjoyed. Next the class took up debate. Two teams were organized in each class. The subject debated was, '4Resolved: that the United States should strengthen her national defenses. In the second hour class the affirmative team was George McClughan, Mary Stroh, and Alice Webber, the negative was Leland Mont- gomery and Dorothy McCormick. Sixth hour class teams were: affirmative- ,lack Stokes, Gail McWard, and Harrington Shaw, negative-Charles Filson, Helen Webb, and Richard Locke. Debates were held before the Rotary Club and the American Business Men's Club. These were non-decision debates. Dramatics proved to be just as interesting. The second six weeks was spent entirely in producing plays. The first one, 5'One of Those Days, was presented at a tea given by the Home Economics and Dramatics Departments. The cast was composed of Chlorine Fabri, Laura Aull, Nina Lambert, Dorothy Mc- Cormick, Marie McClughan, Helen Embrofchan, Dorothy Cook, and Espar Law. The second play, 'L0n Vengeance Height, was used as the county contest play. It won over three others in the preliminaries at Assumption and again was victorious in the finals at Pana. The reward of this victory is another cup for our library. The third play, 'fThe Florist Shop, is to be given with the other two at a public production on May 17. The cast is composed of Lois Durbin, George McClughan, Gail McWard, Richard Locke, and Lucille Waters. This presentation of the three plays is to be called the First Dramatic Festival. If the Festival is a success this year the credit will also be partly due to several student officials who have been appointed. They are: Jack Stokes, business manager, Leland Montgomery, publicity and tickets, Charles Filson, stage manager, flast and least, we hopel Mary Stroh, prompter. Marcia Williams and Myma Salander are aiding the publicity. Plans for a dramatics club are bein made whereb it is ho ed that mem- : g 0 Q I y p u bers of this year's classes may continue their interesting study of dramatics and public speaking-a course that is thoroughly practical as well as cultural.

The gym was decorated in black and silver, with silver balloons. They had a grand orchestra from Beardstown called the Joy Boys. Some of the girls' formals were stunning. I stayed until everyone went home-at 12 o'clock. I'll be glad when I canlgo to the prom, but I won't even be a freshman until next fall. October 27, 1935 My first high school dance! The G. A. A. sponsored this one just for stu- dents and faculty, and everyone had a perfectly swell time. We had two or- chestras-Mjan Garber and Hal Kemp lrecordings, really! but is was such fun. I learned a lot of things I never knew before about the etiquette of dancing. I suspect some of them apply only to high school dances. November 22, 1935 The Junior class gave us another party. More Mcanned musicf, but I heard someone say he'd rather listen to a recording of a good orchestra than dance to poor music. The boys in this school are the funniest things! They stalk around the edges of the floor and let the girls dance with each other. I wish someone would tell them to get out there and dance. November 30, 1935 Another dance tonight, but this one was different. It was the Thanksgiving home-coming sponsored by the P. T. A. A big crowd, of course, and Johnny lVIoreland's music was especially good. The gym was decorated in purple and gold. Alumni dances are fun, but you can have more fun at a school party. December 27, 1935 The Drift gave us a Christmas dance. It was alunmi, but we did have a nice time. The high school boys are loosening up a little. They actually danced to- night. The gym was all red and green, but the poor decorations didn't last long. They always get torn down. January 25, 1935 Something new to me-a matinee dance sponsored by the Junior class. .lust recordings, but everyone had such a nice time that we're all hoping for more. Came home about six oiclock and do my feet hurt! March 19, 1935 I never had so much fun for a nickel in my life! The G. A. A. gave another school dance, and this time we had Gus Cieslar's orchestra from Springfield. There were crepe paper streamers and horns and confetti and a swell program. The Juniors had a bingo stand and the Seniors a fish pond. We Freshies and the Sophs took care of the eats with a pop and ice cream stand. May 10, 1935 The Drift sponsored another dance with Gus Cieslar's orchestra. I enjoyed this one because I got in free. All Freshmen did because we bought the most Drifts. It was open to the alumni and everyone I've talked to had a perfectly t'splendiferous time. Here's hoping I have as much fun at next year's dances as I have at this year's. May 24, 1935 Watched this year's Prom tonight. It was even finer than last yearis. The same orchestra, and blue and silver decorations. lt'll be two more years before I can go!

Think I'll et out m monocle and see what makes these words so g g Y hot and sweet in some places and so cold and bitter in othersf' fOswald assumes grave dignity with the assistance of his monocle.l Well, blow me down, as my grandpap used to say. Hit's a five year diary- that explains a great deal, but live a hankering notion to read further. fOswald buries his inquisitive nose in my diary-the nosey thingll '6Geel This stuff isnit so literary as the author's latest book, but itis about as gossipy. Humph! This was written while she was a Senior in high school! Wonder if she knows how that class of hers is getting on. Pretty brilliant class, I reckon. At least they all go a long way in a short time. fOswald tells us of the progress and whereabouts of the old class.l Take Ruth Welsh for instance. She was quite a vocalist back in '35. Al- ready she has made her debut in light opera and critics proclaim her the most promising present day contralto. There are several others of the old class in New York, too. Betty .lane Walters and .lack Stokes are playing at the Mont- gomery theater this week in Miss Wisovaty's most recent play-a'Carnetta. The play was reviewed in the Theatre Arts Monthly last issue by Ho and Marcus Hertel, new dramatic critics. Marcus Hertel is also sponsoring a big chicken farm, criticizing plays being merely an avocation. Fashions from Marciais Salon have replaced the fashions from Paris now. She has surpassed anything Adrian ever created, and her art is becoming quite a sensation among the popular cinema actresses: W' s, Maxine Achenbach, Marcella Estes, and El' on. They recently starred in Hearts or Spadesw with the famous Step-us, all girl orchestra led by Theodore Steffes! The orchestra is composed of Della Burton, Olga Baltokus, Dol re Oyler, Leona Leinen, Mar a 'cak, Mary ,lane Thomas, Bert 1, Marianmnan, and Olive Campbell. fOswald falls into a trance-what could it be? Ah! Here we have itl Well, welll Who would have thunk it? World famous engineer-C. W. Filson. So he was a member of the old class too, eh? He's the fellow who's just finished his great construction, bridging the gap between now and then. Quite an achievement, I reckon! ' Ha! Hal And so the writer of this esteemed selection knew Mr. Locke, did she? He is quite a professor now! .lust written a new set of encyclopedias fpronunciation of all proper names includedj-g'Encyclopedias de Lockes I One Hundred Ten .. .. : -.-.uu...-' 45.5, , ' 1935 THE DRIFT believe. He accredits a great deal of the success of these prolific volulnes to his secretary, Miss Laura Aull-who, by the way, is also Uncle Samis speediest typist. Soohl Guess everyone sees Elmer's and Gene's names in print often enough as coaches of Harvard and Yale. They have produced the greatest football teams in a blue moon. I believe a great deal of their popularity is due to their modesty in accepting their many laurels. I saw where Mrs. Madeline and George McClughan were guests of honor at the last game, dining with Coach McWard afterwards. McClughan is quite a prominent lawyer these days. 'Also as guests at the dinner were Dorothy Chlebus, new reporter for the Metropolit' n Dailyg Leland Montgomery, president of the state university, and WillflQlJP'5s- nigh, gentleman of leisure. Leonard Burton performed a most ad of Nbuttlin the dinner. At a conference in Washington last week many of our countryis outstanding business men met to discuss Uncle Sam's economic status. Present wer .lack Boll, Cl in, Wa ne e , William Hardin, and nivkeke y. President Carl Michels of Wall Street Bank opened the meeting. Professor Paul Lambert of Northwestern gave an address in the morning. This was followed by a round table discussion led by Senator Marion Welch, chairman of the finance committee. The meeting was adjourned at the motion of Morgan Milligan. An international volf tournament will be held in New York next week. l Uncle Sam's representative is Edgar Walton, whom critics proclaim the best prospect for the cup. Farmers' institute for Christian County was held last week. Outstanding exhibitions were made by Philip Ransdell, ,Iohny Rigg and Claude White. The Women's Home Economics division was supervise b Maggrk. As- N . slstants and contributors to the meet were Chris ' er nna Nolan, CEEL Haig, and Grace Stebbins. Taylorville as noudgglnized a home talent dramatics association. Presi- dent Helen 1 nd Secretary orl i report that the club is making rapid progress. They have been asked to broadcast over WGN. The program is as follows: Reading by D. t reeneg a 1 ' luding Enhill' Qnderburk, Rose c, lH31Lgu t, Maurice Sewell, ks Emor ner WQ and Albest gon Achen Novclt Qinoli, Elizabeth Mason, and Ruth Grace.

THE DRIFT 1935 Marinello beauty shop run by Mu aymond and Cleo r is gaining business. Anot e new feature in the district is a new delicatessen being opened by Alic er, elen Warnelis, and Mary .lane Thomas. Mr. James Jamison has o new plumbing office here and Marie Pinney, Floren'6?! mpLi5on, Nellie Hile, and Mary Kiers, his secretaries and office girls are busy arranging things today. This new district challenges Taylorville proper to new civic achievements. Miss Mary Stroh has recently opened a large goat farm. She has a gift for getting people's goats fgift or what have youi . Alexander Godat has been hired to care for the hallucinations. Miss Stroh is at Hilton Lawn at present where she is entertaining several members of the old class. Miss Pauline Podcschi, famous world traveler, has recently endowed Tay- lorville with money for a girls' recreation building. Sadie Noren has been placed in charge of organizing basket ball teams, with Aldora McMillan as her ' ssistant. Other leaders throughout the building will be Emma Swedick, .Kat ryn aplon and Agnes Wright. The DeHart auto syndicate has replaced the general motors. At a recent anniversary display was the DeHart '6Model T de luxe of away back when. The crowd was enthusiastic over the style of the odelg so Mr. DeHart has conferred with his assistants Thomas Kadis, Art n, Robert Lee, Warren Rosengrant and Albert Von Achen, and they will place a half million of these sport models fwith improvements! on the market in three weeks. Since Beulah Griffin, Helen Warnelis, and Eva Trost are acting as air hostesses on the good ship Lollypop the passenger list has doubled. It is rumored that Ted Durr-owner of the line-has plans for building a new plane, and it will be as nothing you have even seen-for when bigger and better planes are built, Durr will build them. There was a large fire in the Chicago stock yards the other day-nothing like the one in '34 though. And to chief Darrel Long goes the credit for keeping the fire under control. lt is said that he warmed up to the situation at once but kept his head cool enough to give orders. He had only one small difficulty. People would not stay backg and he mistook one of his own men, Bob Hopson, for a mere onlookerg when Fireman Hopson refused to get behind the ropes, Chief Long swung his hefty right, and Mr. Hopson saw stars. Now to return to T. T. H. S. I wonder how many of the old class returned to the alunmi reunion last spring. There are a few of them on the faculty. Professor Everett Peters CPete, the Prof. to youi has charge of the science de- partment. He is teaching chemistry. T. T. H. S. is fortunate in having so splendid a chemist. Oscar Huyghe is leader of the band, which has achieved new heights now holding first in a contest held between U. S., England, and France. Gertrud 1y Taylor, and Mary Elizabeth Purkes are teaching English. Emmxe 1ch is girls' athletic director, while Albert Hendricks is lilihi OHldTl mz um re we ve - .1 . v Ang - .Q -sing add: 1935 THE DRIFT coach of an undefeated football team. Mabel Banks with assistant Mina Mason has made a splendid success of the Home Economics department. Pete Freitik, Howmell, EarF'G'i'ETtb Merle Ahlberg, Bob Madison, and Max Rambach, members of the school board, have voted to send the girls' Glee Club to the national contest. The club, under the patient guidance of Mis , has won the state contest for the third successive year. Now that national C011- tests are organized the board feels that in all honor to Miss Griffiths, untiring efforts the club should be sent. T. T. H. S. was presented this year with a banner for being the best all around school in the state. Dear old T. T. H.

WOMAN'S CLUB LITERARY CONTEST The annual WOUIHHQS Club literary contest for senior girls was won by Helen Webb with her familiar essay entitled H011 Writing Essays. Inasmuch as Helen is literary editor of The Drift, and since The Drift has adopted a literary theme, it is exceedingly appropriate that she receives this prize. Mary Stroh placed second with her essay, Scrapbook, A prize of five dollars is given the senior girl winning this annual contest. The winners and types of literature for the past four years are listed below: Marcell Ettinger, '34-Essay. Eleanor Waddell, '33-Poetry. Constance Hay, '32-Poetry. Mary Martin, '31-Play.
