S, proud of us. We have tried to uphold the standards of our school and hope that it will be better for having shared with us the training it has to offer. As a mark of final appreciation, We, the class of Nineteen Hundred Thirty-Six, dedicate this is- sue of The Athenian to the faculty, the board, and all those kind friends who have helped to make a school like A. C. H. S. possible. Student Council - The 1936 Senior - LELIA MAY JOHNSON Still we gazed and still the wonder grew That one small head could carry all she knew. Maid of Athens, ere we part Pause for some the praise and credit That is found in every heart. Serene, well poised, and always ready with a willing smile for any task assigned her by teachers and equally ready to help her schoolmates, one and all. The Student Council will miss her cool, sane judgment. No class could ask for a better represent- ative of its ideals. The school as a whole is better for having known and loved her. - Junior WILLIAM ZSCHOCHE So he buckled right in, with a trace of a grin On his face. If he worried, he hid it. He started to sing, as he tackled the thing That couldn't be done-and he did it. As cool and steadfast in his daily tasks as in a crucial moment on the basketball court, Bill has yet another year in which to give freely of himself and of his many talents. Beloved alike by students and fac- ulty, he will strive ceaselessly to merit the honor conferred upon him by his classmates -that of being the most representative Junior.

Class History - - The 1936 SENIOR CLASS HISTORY We, the elfass of 1936, entered A.C.H.S. with an enrollment of fifty-eight students. Although we have greatly decreased in number since then. we have shown our talents to the ibest off our ialbvility. Now we finish our high school life with twensty-nine classmates. As freshies, it was a ihard task to become aocustomed 'to the routine of ihigh school life, and acquainted with our fellow sehooilmaites. Weiner roasts and class parties, together with school functions, helped us in our efforts to establish friend- ships. During this yeair our class was well represented in the fields of music, athletics, and elocfution. September rolled around with alarming rapidity and, with ia 'loss of eleven class- mates, we .took -our plaices as sophomores with increased 'confidence in ourselves. Having a little reszponsibiliity this year in making money for our class treasury, wie sohd pencils with the basketball isiohe-dules printed on them. In the stall of 1934, fthe daily grind blegan again for thirty-five juniors. This proved to be fan eventful year, two junior ipiliays, Here Comes Charlie and Meet the Millionaire , and the jiunfior-senior ibanquet holding the ilimeli-glut. The banquet was laid in a Japanese igarden, with colored lanterns lighting the scene. A rustic bridge and 'pool occupied one corner of the room. The garden was surrounded by hedges of willow and locust, and the sltaige was banked with flowers. A Japanese program was presented during the banquet. As we look back over the past yeair we see many achievements to our credit. The class decided to edit ia large Annual this year instead of the paimphle-t which had been edited lby the oliasses of '33, '34, -and '35. As a means of ,raising money toward this a three-pound box off -candy was raffled off ibefore Christmas. As luck would have it, the prize went 'to 'a isenioreGeorge Richter. Then the class sponsored the play A Wild Filowe-r of the Hills . In addition, the plays Hobgob'lin House and t'Oh, Professor! were presented by members of the class. As a finale a Class Night pro- gram was given. New as we look forward to igrarudition, we fee-l that we have given of our 'best to uphold ethe standards of A.C.H.S.

Naomi Trainor Delbert Pnimm. Class Prophecy - - The 1936. CLASS PROPIIECY Dear Miss Spe-lbring, For the past rtlhree years I have been employed at Athens Community High Sachcol as teacher of Latin. I know you can appreciate my interest in my job as it is your place that I have ciilled. Something I did this summer has prompted me 'to write you, reminding you of the year at A.C.H.S. when I was graduated. I have just returned from my vacation and was both surprised and delighted lto see all of imy former classmates during the trip. I went from Athens to Springfield iby an automilbile 'driven by fa you-ng doctor who had just .startd into business in Athens. I exrpe-ctied to be accompanied by Sylvia Szerknas, but she felt that her pupils in piano would not profit by her absence. Upon 'arriving in Springfield, as there was yet time, I decided to do some shopping and to patronize a beauty parlor, as my hair was badly .in need of attenition. It so happened that the beauty salon that I entered was owned and operated hy Margaret Eckler, another classmate. I told her of my intention Ito go North and she was almost ready to accompany me. Later, in buying gloves and hose, I found Lucille Forden and Wilma Powell to be employed in Herndons' Store. 'Ilhey ltold me that ftwo more of my former iclassmates are working in Springfield. They are James Daley, working in a florists shop, and James Follis, employed as clerk in a grocery store. I went 'by bfus from Springfield and upon stepping in, I found my driver to 'be Leslie Beaver. He, too, reflected my joy at seeing an old classmate -and informed me that he had held that position for two years. Once out of Springfield and on ia clear road, everyone .seemed more realm. The excitement of bidding goodbye and of istarting was over. In passing a Wheat field, I saw a ftraetor, the driver of which appeared strangely familiar. After closer inspection, I found the driver to be Ellis Dirks who owns 'a. farm in this vicinity. My first stop was in Champaign. Here I saw George Richter Jr. who is employed yor 'the coming year as basketball coach at the University and Charles Fisher, employed as gym teacher. I journeyed next 'to Chicago, where, of course, I desired 'to visit Sahedd's Aquarium. But even the pleasure of the hours I spent there did not .supass my great joy at seeing another classmate, Audryn Cline, who is working as a stenographer and book- keeper for 'this Institu-tion. I asked her if she had he-ard from any o-ld classmates and she told me that Otto Lllblby is playing baseball in Saint Louis. Upon returning again to the sidewalk, I collided with someone and after making the proper apologies savw that the woman was Harriett Culver, now an instructor of dramatics in Northwestern University. That evening I went to the theater. The vaudeville was especially enjoyed Paz: Sixteen Athenian - - Class Prophecy Page Seventeen because I again had the pleasure of hearing the voice of Helen Killion. She sang several selections and I was later told that she is one of the mozt popular singers in Chicago. I heard that Carolyn Tobias was living near the hotel in which I was staying, so the following day I decided to visit her. I was very much disappointed to learn that she was out 'taking her daily toe-dancing lesson. Continuing northward I next stopped at Racine, Wisconsin. Off course my first desire was to go swimming in Lake Michigan. While I was walking toward the bath house after my swim, someone shouted my name. Turning, I saw two persons running toward me. The sight of them brought hack memories for they too were old class- mates, Robert Council and Harry Smith. Robert, I learned, is a Farm Bureau Adviser nearby and Harry was preparing his campaign speeches 1he's running for coronerl while vacationing in the North. Harry told mc that hc had recently received a letter from Edwin Walkup, who is now a noted electrician in Peoria, Illinois. After leaving Racine, I pursued my northward course to Milwaukee, where I saw another formelr classmate, Leila May Johnson, who had been living tihere for three years. Her husband is a salesman and Leila May found much comfort during her solitary hours with the many beautiful cats for which she is noted and of which she is very fond. She had recently been visited by Dgrthe-lene Barr, now a. nurse i.1 Columbus, Olhio. My return journey was not eventful until Joliet was reached. Here, Vera Hart is a. dressmaker -and stylist of great ability. I asked her if she had heard from her cousin, Evelyn Hopvwood, recently and 'she informed me that Evelyn is private secretary to the govemor off Missouri. In Bloomington I stopped to see a cincus. I was indeed surprised -to see that James Ford was in it as the :tall -man. After the performance, I talked to him for some time. That evening I -heard a familiar voice over the radio. It was the voice out Delbert Primm, now a radio announcer for station ALS of Athens, Illinois. On the same -program I heard Joe Spragg sing two vo-cal solos. Before leaving the next day. I salw Arthur Pautsch. He owns a restuarant in Bloomington at which I arte my morning meal before departing. I was very glad to return once again to Springfield. Before coming out to Athens. I saw George Engel who was vacationing in Springfield. He is an Ag teacher at Lincoln High School. I am very glad that I took this trip because I learned of ihc whereabouts of all my former classmates. Of course my whole tr ip was cnjoyezl but my memories mcun more 'than the newness of lthe places visited. If you have heard from any of my former teachers, will you please let me know?

After becoming acquainted officers were elected, and by their endeavors the class passed a most successful ye-ar. Mlany members laid a foundation for the following foin' years by -being active in exltra-curricular activities. At vthe beginning of the sophomore year thirty-six students registered. Officers were elected for the ensuing year soon after school began, and under their direction numerous Weiner roasts and parties were held. 'Ilhe class achieved great heights that year as many of its members participated in band work and dramatics and were active in athletic events. 1935-36 has been even a more successful one under the careful guidance off the adviser, Miss Raisty. lt is the 'aim of the juniors 'to lbanquet the seniors in Springfield year instead of the 'usual banquet held at 'the high school. This plan has been materialized :through the eitlforts of the entire class in selling candy throughouut the school term, and by the presentation of the Class play, For Pete's Sake. Th-is was one of the outstanding features of the year and was supported by a splendid cast. Ift is .the hope of every memlber of the cl-ass that their senior year will lead them still higher in fthe achievements of their school life.

'Soon aifter school started the class was warmly welcomed to the tune cf upper class paddles. But soon these newcomers became accustomed to their new surroundings: new :friends were being made, 1tlhin,gs were much easier than they first 'aplpelared to be. The class was represented on the track and 'baseball tealms, in fthe -band, in the literary and music contest, in the glee -clubs, and in several of -the other activities. In -the falll of 19305, 'the second round of 'thle 'battle for knowledge was on. This year we find the class doing lbegfger and better things. Two of our members, Ernest Gollalday and Warren Hughes, were on the basketball squad. Several were in the band and on the .tralck tealm. Betuty Primm carried 'a 'levadin-g part in Pink and Pa.rt:ches, the very successful one-alct contest play.

Braeunirrger In the fall of 1935, forty-nine adventurous students arrived at A.C.I-LS. to embark upon a four-years' journey-their high school careers. During the first 'lap olf the journey eight classmates were lost: Al-ta Bu-shong, Opal Yoakum, Eloise Mylers, Ellen Pierceall, Thomas Davis, Billy Power, John Haggard, and Bernard Forester. Duties 'of the journey were many, but the days were not too full for social activities. One of thle most eventful entertainments was 'that of the freshmen fparty, September 9, when the forty-nine were finally accepted as deserving Altlienilans. A weiner and lrnarshallow roast was enjoyed in October as was the masquerade panty at Halloween. Duty can walk :hand in hand with lpleasure. One dulty was llearning to spell. 'llhe boys' section challenged the winners with la party in the high sohool gymnasium. Many freshmen rose to the heights in various svohool activities: Kathryn Kincaid, Dorthy Perkins, Evelyn Dirks, William Grant were active in lthe- band: Glenn O'Nea1, Lawson, Floyd Rollings, Donald Parrish, Walter Pautsoh, Ingram, George Cline went out for basketball, Henrietta James Lawson, Orville William Gnant, Charles Forden, Loraine Boylan, Lea Etta Ferguson, Dorthy Stott, Lillis Eddy, Mae Sexton, Evelyn Dirks, Charlene Croft, Maxine Denton, Opal Yoakum, Alta Bushong, Donthy Perkins, Floyd Rollings, Bernard Ivey were 'active in glee lolwb work.

Although track is rated much lower than basketball or baseball, quite a few of the boys are interested in it. The team showed up well in a triangular meet with Petersburg and Greenview. Richter starred, taking first in everything he entered, except one which was a second. He collected a total of 33 points for Athens. The results of the meet are: 100 Yard Dash: Richter, Athens, firstg Winterbauer, Athens, second. 440 Yard Run: T.

D elbert Primm Ma ....,.............. ...... H arriett Culver Mrs. Allan .......................A.,.,................,,........................,.... Helen Killion The setting for the play is amid the mountains of Tennessee. Texie is a little mountain girl who has always had to wear brown, patched calico dresses because of the family's abject poverty. She longs for a new pink dress. Mrs. Allan, a woman from the outside world, presents Texie with a dress to repay her for bringing her some flowers. Texie opens the package in the hope of finding a pink dress, only to be bitterly disappointed because it is another patched brown one. The performance of the play is noteworthy for the faithfulness to the moun- tain dialect. In the character of Texie, Betty Primm achieves an almost professional interpretation, such is her sympathetic and charming delineation. Delbert Primm with his usual excellent technique gives us a fine performance. Ma was portrayed with a fine understanding by Harriett Culver. Helen Killion very adequately played the pvart of Mrs. Allan. The judge complimented the players on the sustained char- acterization and the excellent dialect. This play was given at the Sub-District Contest at Canton where it competed with five other pl-ays and won third place. It was then taken to Macomb where it was in competition with nine others. Though it was not successful in placing among the first three, the rating was relatively high. It was planned to present the play at the Wesleyan contest but a full school calendar prevented this. The play has also been presented at Honeyhart, Damascus, Indian Point, Tilson, and Wiggins schools. Luft in right: lf. 1,l'lIlllll. Clllvvr. Killimi, ll. l'rimm Pau Thirty ,--J ww.

The president is elected from the student body as a whole and the members of the council from the various school organizations. The council, after due investigation and deliberation, again voted in favor of the Athenian Sun, and chose Naomi Trainor to be its editor, and Delbert Primm, the business manager. The council also elected the other members of the staff. This year the council effected a great change in the Honors' Night program They voted to have all senior girls act as attendants upon the Queen, who is chosen from the senior class by the entire student body. Such a plan enables every girl at A.C.H.S. to be in the Queen's court at least once before she is graduated. Stnmling: Smith. Zsclioa-hc, Mi: Austin. lYi1m-1'Imm-r. l'. I-'ishr-r.

This club is the largest in several years at A.C.H.S. This year's club combined their talent with that of the boys in several pre- senbations, the operetta and a Christmas Pageant, on December 19. The girls also sang Christmas Carols before the Woman's Club at its December meeting at the home of Mrs. J. O. Austin. On March 21, Athens Community High School was host to the I.S.I-I.S.M. sub- district contest. From the Glee Club, the following girls were chosen to sing in the Class C Chorus: Nellie Barnes, Wilma Canterbury, Harriett Culver, Evelyn Dirks, Mar- garet Engle, Jean Graham, Glenith Hurt, Mary Jones, Leila May Johnson, Emily Jane McCorkle, Hulda McCutcheon, Wilma Powell, Bonnie Richter, Marcella Schneider, Naomi Trainor, and June Van Meter. They offered as the required number Carew's Spring Comes Laughing , and wa selected number Clouds by Ernest Charles. The chorus, competing with Divernon and Waverly, was awarded third place in Group 1, which entitled them to compete in the District contest at Normal, April 17. Because of an extremely full calendar the club was unable to appear at Normal, however. The Judge spoke highly of the appeanance of these sixteen girls, and they should be highly commended for their fine spirit of co-operation. Fllllftll Row: Nl. Johnson, Tobias, lf. llopwooal, I..

Twenty-eight boys were enrolled in the Club under the able leadership of Miss Rickard. The boys made their first appearance at the Ag Fair, presenting an entire evening's entertainment in the form of a minstrel show. Soloists for the evening were Joe Spragg and Harold Hawkins. Joe sang Old Man River, and Harold offered Old Rockin Chair's Got Me and On Revival Days. Junior Basso and Eliott Fisher harmonized a medley of popular tunes. Jaybird Primm and Jim Ford's interpreta- tion of That's What You Think was received with a storm of applause. A typical jazz band, featuring Junior Basso, Emory Eden, James Pierceall, Joe Spragg, Orville and Gerald Lawson, provided the instrumental portion of the program. The boys' club appeared with the girls' club in the operetta Oh, Doctor and in the Christmas Pageant. On May 4, at the time of the Eight Grade Visitation Day, thc Boys' Glee Club sang The Bells of St. Mary's and The Anvil Chorus from Verdi's Il Trovatorei' Joe Spragg represented Athens in the Illinois State High School Chorus, in Urbana, November 22.

A band summer school was held last summer, with individual lessons given at all hours of the day and full rehearsals at night. A concert was given on Main Street every other Saturday night. As a final to the the summer's labors, Ka concert was given on the high school campus on August 5. The proceeds from a freewill offering were used for new music and an ice cream party. As a further incentive toward bigger and better things in band work, the com- bined school boards of the grade and high schools very generously purchased four French horns and two baritones. The activities of the year included playing for the Ag. Fair, for the basketball games, including Honor Night, for school plays, and graduation. On December 13 the annual band concert was given. The band entered the District Band Contest held at Pekin, and tied for first place in Class D, which is a group of beginnng bands. Their pleasing tone quolity and intonation were highly praised by the judges. The instrumentation of the band is as follows: six cornets, four French horns, two mellophones, thirteen clarinets, three saxaphones, two baritones, two basses, three trombones, one snare drum, and one bass drum. The band, under the capable leadership of A. T. Pursglove, is backed by the recently formed Band Boosters' organization. 'l'hi1'4l Row: Fitsclien, ll. Iingn-l, K'Illlll'llH, .xlllljlfll ll.

The purpose of the club is to develop friendship among the girls, and to afford opportunity for them to ship, self-reliance, initiative, and social poise. and ia spirit of cooperation develop personality, leader- Last summer eighteen of the home economics girls, accompanied by Miss Irwin, Park in Indiana. This tour went on ia three-day camping trip to Turkey Run State was made possible by the proceeds from ice cream suppers and food sales. The girls went by bus and greatly enjoyed the outing. Several times during the past winter the club, in cooperation with the foods class, served hot lunches at noon. The receipts from these will be used as part of the finances for another trip this summer. Although the club has not held regular monthly meetings, they have had several meetings to take care of the business. In addition, they held one joint meeting with the Future Farmer Boys, at which the home economicie girls furnished a part of the program. In the spring the club, with the aid of the foods class, gave a tea for the mothers of the members and interested friends. Aside from their regular duties, the girls played an important part in the Ag. Fair. They were placed in charge of the textiles, culinary exhibits, snapshots, and flowers.

Braeuninger The Future Farmers of America is the national organization of farm boys studying vocational agriculture. There are more than 3500 chapters in the United States. The Athens chapter is one of about 250 in Illinois. One of the activities of the local chapter is regular monthly meetings. These are opened and closed with a regular ceremony. The programs consist of business, talks, and recreation. Many special meetings are also called during the year. Each boy belonging to the F.F.A. has one or more crop and livestock projects which he owns and cares for. Careful records are kept and the projects are operated in the most scientific manner possible. Many of the products which are a result of these projects are exhibited at fairs. Boys in the F.F.A. participate in Sectional and State judging contests. The teams that take part are corn, grain, poultry, ratstock, and dairy. This year the corn team placed first in the sectional contest. As a school, Athens got the highest score in the judging of corn, grain, and poultry. Another feature of the work is public speaking contests. Joe Spragg is repre- senting the local chapter this year, and is speaking on The Soil Thief . To enter such contests the speeches must be original and based on some agricultural topic as well as written by the speaker. One of the main projects of the Athens chapter is sponsoring the local fair. A good portion of the organization and operation of this fair is carried on by the F.F.A. boys. 'I'hir1I Row: NY.

The newspaper was born of economic necessity and designed to give students more complete accounts of school activities. The final issue of the 1932 Athenian Sun carried pictures. The class of 1933 was first to present the pamphlet instead of the final pictorial edition, a practice continued by the classes of '34 and '35, This year the Athenian Sun was again issued monthly by the staff under Miss Anthony's direction. Slight changes in size and quality of paper, and in the head designed by Don Wilcox, were noteworthy. Slalulilvg: Iluxxsmi, il, His-vii. 11. lfugvl, ll, ifislxigr. lf. XY:ilkup. Smith, lwrrwl.

Spelbring For the first time since 1931, the Senior Class is publishing an annual instead of a pamphlet. The 'advent of the Ath-enia-n Sun in the autumn of 1931 pushed the Athenian aside temporarily. 1933 saw the first volume of Campus Clicks, edited by Gladys Sanders. This pamphlet was designed primarily as the pictorial section of the Athenian Sun. The Classes of 1934 and 1935 also issued pamphlets, that of the Class of '35 asserting its own individuality with a new name, The Little Athenian. The Class of '36 has made every possible effort to assure the 1936 Athc-nian's success, by sponsoring four plays and a Christmas Candy Raffle to earn, in part, the wherewithal for the book's publication.

C arolyn Tobias At the beginning of the school year freshmen were divided between the two societies, X and Y. The Xs received all of those whose last names began with the first eight letters of the alphabet. After having welcomed the new members, each society elected its officers for 1935-36. To date the X-society has sponsored no program. Plans for an X-Y track meet had to be called off because of inclement weather. Despite the fact they had made no previous appearances during thc year, the X's made an excellent showing in the X-Y contest. Fourth Row: li. Juliiismi, Y. Barnes, lvvy, ll. llraliam, Turner, Grant.

Audryn Cline Reported ........,.,.,..,,,,....,...... ..,... On December 11, the YgSociety opened the series of XWY programs, with a play, entitled Grandma Pulls the String . in this play Wilma Powell, Lucille Forden, Eloise Zook, and David Beaver showed exceptional ability. On the same program, Betty Primm presented an excellent dramatic reading, An Object of Love . Naomi Trainor proved that chalk-talks are not a forgotten art at A.C.H.S. The musical part of the program was contributed by Joe Spragg who sang Word's Here is a Love Song , and Sylvia Szerkans, who offered as a piano solo Paul Revere's Ride by E. T. Paul. It is the hope of alumni, faculty, and students that the old and enthusiastic spirit of the inter-society contest may be revived. This year's contest, scheduled for May 22, promises to be an interesting one, and the Y's are eagerly anticipating a fine representation and showing. Fourth Row: ll, Hr.-zn'c1', AI.
