Wood, Leona Zwicher, Margaret GRADUATE STUDY AT WESTERN The graduate study program at Western was developed seven years ago as a result of the demand that instruction leading to the Master of Science in Education be established for the residents of the area. In addition, the graduate courses are designed to meet the needs of students who Wish to become more competent teachers Without meeting the requirements for the Master's degree. Western Illinois State College offers graduate courses leading to the Master's degree in education in the following fields: Biological Science, Business Education, Chemistry and Physics, Education and Psychology, English, Geography, Mathematics and Social Science. Teachers who Wish to become administrators and supervisors find specific curriculums are available -on both the elementary and secondary school levels. Western's program of graduate study provides an outstanding opportunity in education for advanced students. The trends in education indicate that in the future the demand for persons with Master's degrees will be even greater than it is today.

Following Christmas vacation, six or- T ganizational teams started the round- robin tournament, which enabled each team to play five games. After many hard and closely-scored games the tournament ended with the lndees on top. The Alpha Sigma Tau team, losing only to the Indees, was second. The Alpha Sigma Alpha team Was third, Sigma Sigma Sigma was fourth, Delta Sigma Epsilon was fifth, and Pi Kappa Sigma was sixth. True sportsmanship and good friend- ly playing that is so essential to a Well- rounded personality was displayed i throughout the tournament. f The officiating was done by Dr. Dun- can's junior coaching class. - S VOLLEYBALL Volleyball began immediately following basketball. Nets were set up in the gym and practice sessions were held during free hours. At the beginning of spring quarter, a volleyball organiza- tional tournament Was set up. Teams which entered the tournament were: Alpha Sigma Alpha, Alpha Sigma Tau, Delta Sigma Epsilon, Pi Kappa Sigma, Sigma Sigma Sigma, Castle Hall, and the lndees. Excitement mounted as the teams, with every game, be- came more skillful and concentrated on good team play. BOWLING The bowling activity classes, which were held all year, were quite popular. The two bowling alleys, located above the swimming pool and beside the new student lounge, made this possible. Free bowling tickets were distributed among the students once a week and the entire student body was free to use the alleys. A women's bowling league, consisting of organizational teams, was formed and tournaments were held. League play ended with the Grote Hall team in first place, Alpha Sigma Tau second, Alpha Sigma Alpha third, and Pi Kappa Sigma fourth. The alleys are constantly in use, and their addition to our sports activities is certainly Well appreciated by all. SWIMMING Swimming activity classes were quickly filled with beginning and intermediate swimming and life -saving courses being offered throughout the school year. A swimming club was or- ganized With junior and sen- ior divisions. On Monday nights, instructions W e r e given to the juniors, and the seniors worked on water formations. The senior divi- sion of the club put on a water ballet in May. Officers elected for the swimming club were: Presi- dent, lane Schmid Charles, Vice-president, Phyllis Iohn- song Secretary - treasurer, Olive Kuhn. Dr. Margaret Duncan and Miss Rose Nah- ra were advisers of the club. REC NIGHT Something new came out of the Women's Physical Edu- cation Department this year. The Senior Majors were re- sponsible for the added fun and enjoyment. During the early part of the year two big recreational nights were held in the w'omen's gym. The Farmers Frolic , Where everyone came in costume with the theme, was the first of these fun-for-all nights. Square dancing monopol- ized most of the evening. With the success of the first, a second rec night was planned. This Was the Mex- ican Hat Dance . To add to the fun, the wearing of some sort of a hat, was required for admission. Square danc- ing and social dancing were enjoyed by the large crowd. Later on in the year another big rec night was sponsored by the P. E. Majors. Badminton, volleyball, table tennis, square dancing, social danc- ing, and shuffleboard were the spe- cial activities of the evening. Both gyms were opened and everyone had a good time. Our thanks to all who helped to make these rec nights so successful. X I 96 X ' , ' x6QP'+f5 IQ? ' X W I I ,Q 645,9- - V' : 9612 ' 42, 429 00 G49 2- 45 if 4 152 57 Vi. K l53 P?

The management of the Courier is in the hands of journalism students under the guid- ance of cr faculty sponsor. Learning not only the principles of journalism in gathering and writing the news, they also learn something of the mechanical skills of newspaper produc- tion when the Courier is set up at the Macomb Iournal Printing Company.

By presenting their activity cards, students are admitted without cost. Seasonal tickets are sold to the Macomb public and surrounding vicinity. Without the excellent cooperation the school enjoys between the towns- people and the college administration, such quality performances would not be possible. This year's season was opened by the Revlers, a vocal quartet. Leonard Rose, a cellist, presented the second concert, followed by Herman Godes, Latvian pianist. The Denver Symphony Orchestra also presented a program. The season was concluded with the annual concert presented by the chorus and Western's orchestra.

X Pl 1- gi in JI fit- JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL The members of the Western l-ligh School have had a very busy year. They participated in many activities besides the regular routine. They began the year very patriotically by giv- ing to the National Children's Clothing Cru- sade, the Red Cross, and contributed to the less fortunate for Christmas. In honor of Education Week the eighth grade gave a tea for the parents and faculty members, and the seventh grade had a hobby show and tea. The seventh grade and the eighth grade alternated in having two dances each quarter. ln May the seventh grade went to Hannibal, Missouri, and saw Mark Twain's cave and other famous landmarks bearing his name. The eighth grade visited the Macomb Waterworks in general science under Miss Terrill. They went also to Springfield and had a tour of the government grounds. The boys had a very successful season of basketball and both grades participated in selling food at concessions adding a considerable amount to their treasuries. GRADES FOUR TO SIX The intermediate grades of the Training School, grades four to six, have participated in many interesting events during the past year. The classes under the direction of their home- room teachers and their student teachers spon- sored various activities. Some of these were in connection with classes and some were in connection with the different holidays. Each grade invited parents and other guests to share some of these occasions. Other festivities were purely for the enjoyment of the groups. Iunior Red Cross and the March of Dimes gave these children cm opportunity to show their concern for others. 1 5 if .. 1 . xx ' +7 N ,xr . . df, -,:. . fm, X 1 -. ,1 , . I . 1 ee. - .

FOOTBALL - . XJ Allan Spiller Western High finished one of its most suc- cessful football seasons in recent years with a record of seven wins and one loss. Coach Sockler's boys finished the Lamoine Valley Conference race as co-champions with Harn- ilton and Northwestern. Three players were selected for the Little All-State squad. Al Spillers was placed on the first team as center, and George McGrath and Ted Rob- erts made honorable mention. Al Spiller was chosen also for the All-American High School Football First Team as center. The l952 Cardinals also had the distinction of setting one of the highest scoring records in the school's history. The All-Larnoine Valley Conference line- up found end Ken Chandler and fullback Ted Roberts on the first team, and tackle George McGrath and halfback Ken Morley on the second team. At the annual All- Macomb Football Banquet Al Spiller re- ceived the most valuable player award. Under Coach Harry Soclder's direction Western High is looking forward to the coin- ing football season with well-founded hopes of another successful year. ALLAN SPILLER Allan Spiller, senior center and co-captain of the Western High football team, received the honor of being selected on the First Team All-American High School Squad.

BASKETBALL The Western High basketball team, under the able guidance of coach Harry Sockler, completed another successful season. Al- though most of the boys were inexperienced, they showed signs of improvement as their record indicates. This season's record was 18 wins and eight losses, but those of the Cardin- als losses were in overtimes. Coach Sackler built his tearn around Ted Roberts and Kendall Chandler, his two high scorers for the year. Other high scorers were Miller, Morley, Kutcher, Logan, and Goldburg. ln the county tournament Colchester forced the Cardinals to accept the second place tro- phy. However, the Cardinals easily won the Lamoine Valley conference as they were the only team to go undefeated in the conference play. Next year Western High should have an even better team. Morley and McGrath were the only seniors graduating on the team, and the experience gained this year should provide for a great ball club next year.
