I ATALANTA 1933 djimior (Class History On a fine September morning in 1930, thirty-five Freshmen wandered aimlessly lip the walks leading to the old brick building, now so familiar to us, to start their high school career. In our first class meeting the following officers were elected: Lyle Paulsen, president; Weldon Frantz, vice-president, and Kenyon Bevan, secretary-treasurer, and Miss Hieronymous, class advisor. Despite the great number of toilsome weeks we ended the year with the usual hilarity. Next came the Sophomore year and along with it the following officers: Weldon Frantz, president; Jack Freeston, vice-president, and Kenyon Bevan, secretary-treasurer, with Mr. Price as class advisor. The year proceeded despite trials and tribulations, however, our work was a fraction of a degree harder and we bravelv battled on. Here we are again for the Junior year. It is sad to relate that we have lost so many members. Our grief was somewhat modified by the appearance of some new members. The officers this year are, Winton Hoose, president; Helen Adams, vice president, and Lawrence Howe, secretary-treasurer, and Miss Langston was elected to Ik our guide. The year is progressing and we are anxious for the class of ’34 to be able to prove again the brilliancy of its members. Throughout our entire career we have been the backbone of the school. In fact, our class has contributed ninety per cent of the star athletes, and outstanding talent in music and literary contests. It we get several more students next vear we will be sure to shine. —Bernadi ne Thompson. Seated: Zollars. Watt. Htibncr, Miller. Thompson. II rad way, Franklin, Younkers.

I i-t I ATALANTA 1933 ■ nplununri' (Class Histuru We, the class of ’35, now distinguished and highly renowned from our previous remarkable and extraordinary work in A. C. H. S., are sufficiently ready to carry on even further our outstanding and magnificent work. In the year of our Lord 1931, we entered the portals of our eminent and famous high school for the first time amid the cheers of our upper classmen. Under the capable supervision of Mr. Kush we did thereby nominate and elect the following officers: President, Albert Hieronymous; vice-president. Naomi McCombs; secretary, Emily Jean Crihfield; treasurer, Robert Judy. Well represented in athletics, glee clubs, and other school activities, we exceeded by far the efforts of our honorable but inferior class of ’34. Leaving our initials forever imbedded on the desks that later classes might remember us, we terminated our rare success by journeying to Miller Park, climaxing the year in due form. Refreshed greatly by the summer vacation we came back with renewed fervor, prepared to undertake the task before us. With teachers and students gazing upon us with awe we swept on with determination. Choosing Mr. Riley as advisor; Marvin Hamilton as president, and Thomas Tuttle as secretary-treasurer, we carried forward, expanding our knowledge daily. It was clearly evident at the end of the first six weeks that we were surpassing all previous records. Our ranks were made even more stable by the arrival of Lynn McClure. It was not without our help that the baseball and basketball teams were successful. The glee clubs would not have prospered had they not have been enchanted by our melodious voices. We added greatly to the success of the band and orchestra and also to literary achievements. The cheering sections would have been listless and dead had not our booming voices inspired them to cheer the team forward to victory. We cooperated with our teachers at all times and defended and assisted the Freshmen, groping blindly for light. W e are now therefore prepared to undertake our third year and feel sure that we will l e even more successful than ever before. —Albert Hieronymous, 35. Standing: Mouser, Spencer, Rein miller.

I 15 J ATALANTA 1933 iFrcsljnmt (Class Hi stary On the fifth day of September, we, the class of ’36, marched into the assembly of the Atlanta Community High School. We composed one of the largest classes that has ever entered this school. Nine of our number were from rural schools, three were from outside of the county but twenty-four of the pupils were from those graduated last year from the Atlanta Junior High School. Since most of the class had been together for the past two years in Junior High we felt fairly well acquainted from the start and felt quite at home after the first few weeks of school. In due time we discovered the fact that it would be necessary for us to organize our class in order to carry our affairs in a systematic manner. Therefore, we stayed one evening after school and elected the following officers: Harold Paulsen, who had been our president in Junior High, was reelected to the same office; Johnson King was elected secretary-treasurer, and Mr. Price was selected as class advisor. We eventually discovered that in order to make an “impression” on the teachers we would have to subdue our favorite pastime, “giggling”. We also found it necessary to resort to the thorough study of “Webster Unabridged” in order to fathom the chatter of the classmen. However, much to our dismay we found that even this old stand-by was incapable of explaining many of these terms, but time and experience only would reveal their mysteries. Thus far our activities as a class have been limited, but some of our members have taken part in school activities and have made an excellent showing. We were represented in the vocal contest, the Boys’ and Girls’ Glee Clubs, baseball, basketball, track, band and orchestra. Before the year was over some of our members dropped by the wayside. But most of the class have weathered the storm and will be anxiously awaiting the opening of school next fall when they will enter as Sophomores. —VI KG IN 1A | F, N K INS.

The Club elected the following officers: President, Earl Hayter; secretary-treasurer, Joseph Mountjoy. Miss Josephine Beverly was accompanist for the club. Regular practice was held before school on Tuesday and Thursday, and two numbers, “Whispering Hope” and “Sweet and Low”, were prepared for the preliminary contest. The Club had hopes of winning the Preliminary contest, and by so doing, winning the honor of representing the school in the County contests. However, the Girls’ Glee Club again carried off the honors. The boys concluded their year’s work by repeating their numbers before the Atlanta Woman’s Club on the eighth of March.

Loretta King was elected president and Edna Mae Brandt, secretary. With a nucleus of thirty members from last year’s Club and with the addition of some excellent material from the Freshman class the organization started out with enthusiasm. Practice was held on Monday and Wednesday afternoons of each week. The girls first appeared in public at the convocation service held at the Methodist Church the latter part of September. Other appearances were on the occasion of Homecoming, a meeting of the Parent Teachers Association, and at the “Night School”. At Christmas time they sang a group of carols at the Christmas programs of both the Christian and Methodist Churches. Following their participation in the Preliminary contest they sang their winning selections before the Atlanta Woman’s Club. The Club was entered in the County contest held at New Holland, the Sub-district contest at Normal, and the District meet held at Normal the week following the Sub-district. The Club won first in the County and Sub-district meets. Everyone had hopes of winning the District, which would have given t em the honor of representing this district in the State contest at Champaign. Their efforts fell a little short of winning that distinction. However, much credit is due this group of girls and their capable directoress, Miss Knowles. The year’s work was concluded with numbers on the Baccalaureate and Commencement programs. It was a busy and profitable year for the members of the Club. —Emily Jean Crih field, 35. Hack row: Ambers.

The Club elected Madelyn Curtis, president; Paul Adams, vice-president; Joseph Mountjoy, secretary; Edna Mae Brandt, treasurer. Leota Younkers and Samuel Turner were chosen sergeants-at-arms. The board members named were Susie Irish. Elizabeth McClure, Mildred Phillips, Sarah Watt. Mary Zollars, Buell Cluck, Weldon Frantz, Lyle Paulsen, and Lyman Rogers. The meetings were scheduled to be held the first Monday of each month. The purpose of this Club was to promote the interest of the students in the Commercial work, also to gain the interest of those who had graduated from high school and had taken up Commercial work. These people were invited to attend the meetings. Some of the speakers of the year were Reverend McClure, Mr. Bevan, Mr. Montgomery, Mr. Haines and Miss Lucy Coe, of Urbana, Illinois. At one of the meetings a debate was held. Resolved—That Roosevelt was better qualified to be President. Joe Mountjoy took the positive and Earl Hayter the negative. There was no judge present to decide who won; it was left up to the national election. At the end of the first semester keys were presented to the following by Miss Langston for having a grade of A in a Commercial subject and averaging B in all other courses: Madelyn Curtis. Susie Irish. Edna Mae Brandt, Inez Douglas, Marjorie Carlock, Helen Adams. Myrtle Atnberg, Bernadine Thompson, Paul Adams, and Joseph Mountjoy. —Mary Zollars, ’34. Hack row: Odom.

C. H. S.. namely the Class of 1933. It was in September, 1929, that about thirty-five merry pupils were found on the south side of the assembly room. As this was quite different from the grades, we were considered as “green” by the upper classmen at that time. After awhile we held a class meeting and finally agreed upon the following officers: Joseph Mountjoy, president; Madelyn Curtis, Vice-president, and Earl Hayter, secretary-treasurer. As Freshmen we did our share along musical, athletic and other lines. In our Sophomore year we had about the same number of members enrolled but we lost several before the end of the year. Another class meeting was called for the purpose of nominating class officers. There were many nominations, but in the end Merlin Warrick was chosen president; Madelyn Curtis, vice-president, and Merlin Adams, secretary-treasurer. This year seemed to hold some real enemies for us. Two of the worst were Mr. Latin and Mr. Geometry. Many times it seemed as though our efforts were useless, but we finally came through safely, with a feeling of relief. In September. 1931. we took our places in the assembly and enrolled as Juniors. We decided at the beginning of the year we had a great task ahead of us, that of financing the Junior-Senior Banquet. This time Madelyn Curtis was selected as president. Marjorie Carlock as vice-president, and Merlin Adams, secretary-treasurer. Most of our spare time was spent in earning money to finance the banquet. We arc proud of the fact that we entertained the Seniors and Faculty so well at the banquet on April 20. It was directed by Miss Sutherland and was served by our mothers. At last came the Senior year with all its dignity and importance. A class meeting was held early in the fall and Earl Hayter was elected president; Omar Blankenship, vice-president, and Edna Mae Brandt, secretary-treasurer. We, the class of 33, then decided to publish an “Atalanta”. The staff and annual advisers were chosen. In order to finance the affair, many methods for raising funds were put into use. After much consideration, the play The Girl in the Fur Coat”, was chosen as the play to be given by our class. This proved to be a huge success. The Junior-Senior Banquet was a complete success this year and was thoroughly enjoyed by the Seniors. The Juniors were exceptionally good hosts and entertainers, and we appreciated this very much. And now, dear friends, I have completed our exciting history of the past four years. As for our future I cannot say. but watch us. There may be a President or a Senator of U. S. among us. who knows? Only time with all its joys and sorrows can bring these hidden possibilities to light. —Mauki.yn Ci ktis. ATALANTA 1933 Mentor Charge We, the distinguished and honorable Seniors of the class of ’33, being about to graduate, do hereby wish to offer some very good advice to the class that will try to follow in our footsteps. We realize that the advice we will render will not help a great deal since we know that the Juniors are greatly inferior to the renowned class of 33. The first example of your bad judgment was the choosing of inton to guide the affairs of your class. We realize that Winton spends more of his time in Lincoln than working for the betterment of his class. We know that Sonny” Howe’s motto must come from the student Mariners Oh sleep, it is a blessed thing beloved from Pole to Pole.” We wonder which Senior Sonny” is dreaming about. If you want to know anything about Pete Frantz, ask Narola’s sister, Mary Louise. She informed us that Pete kicked” Narola one night. Shame on you. Pete. We understand that the twenty-one day diet is coming back. You might try th s, Lorietta, it might have some effect on your averdupois. Helen, we admire your studious example but you really should get out and enjoy yourself sometime, you will find it stimulates one to do even more. Lyle, we know that Wilma is a nice girl, but why don’t you stick with her, don’t go flirting with other members of the fairer sex. We thought the gravel trucks had quit frequenting Atlanta. But the charms of Sarah and Mildred have again attracted them. Girls, why don’t you distribute your charms among some of the eligible bachelors of Atlanta? Bcrnadinc sure docs rate. A college man! But don’t let it go to your head, Berna-dine, and keep him out all night. His father might not approve, you know. We thought the age for being mamma’s little boy was past. William. We hope you realize that before you can become a dignified Senior you will have to dispense with your childish habits. We know it is quite the style to go in for college boys, Mary, but why don’t you make him go to church with you once in a while? Delber, we think it is about time you went in for the girls a little bit. Seniors must, you know, and we recommend that you take Joe Mount joy as an example of what girls expect in their he men. Paul, don’t you think of anything except studying and playing your cornet. Get out sometime and raise Purgatory and put a chunk under it. Seniors should have a little life, you know. Narola is our idea of what a Senior should be. Remember, Seniors, don’t go steady. Love them and leave them, that is our motto. Louise, it seems to me that you act too much like a Freshman. You will have to be able to contain yourself before next year. Urbel, don’t you think it is about time you woke up to the fact that you arc now a Junior? Don’t be so modest about yourself, get out and tell the world your accomplishments. We understand that Hester charms the Lawndale boys. But Hester, couldn’t you have picked out some town a little smaller, such as Chicago. Myrtle is going to be a great stenographer some day. We want to warn you against some of those fresh bosses. Myrtle. We can not say much about Clinetta. because she used to be one of us. We can see that our influence has made her far superior to the rest of the Juniors. Bernice and Georgia, why don’t you get out and run around a little? We know some good looking boys would appreciate your charms. John Hubner also used to be one of our class and takes his athletic ability from that source. We hope you won’t let it go to your head. We know that visitors are always welcome at school, Margaret, but don’t you think it would be a bit more becoming if you would visit a little more often. The milkmaid type is all right in the country. Leota, but we think it would be a bit better to act like a person who has been about while in the citv. Wilma, why don’t you receive Lyle’s affections graciously? We don’t think the match will go wrong. Now we hope you will receive this kindly advice from those who are interested in helping you to try to live up to the high standards of the classes that have gone before you. W e feel certain that you will do your best and be the better for following our advice. Lorktta Kino. Phii.mp Crihfiku� I 30 | ATALANTA 1933 HJiminr lu'sjnnisi' Dear Seniors of the class of ’33: We wish to thank you for the good advice you have given us and now if you will kindly take heed of our advice we will guarantee that you will decide to adopt it in the ensuing years. First we will begin with your president, Earl Havter. Earl, if you would pay less attention to Susie’s teasing, life would he much more enjoyable. Now as for you Ethel, if you would use a little more personal charm and not concentrate so much on one person it would make life more pleasant for the young men around A. C. H. S. Omar, why don’t you spend your evenings in Atlanta instead of dashing off to Lincoln? Sue, we are afraid that peculiar sneeze of yours will spoil your chances in the business world. We think it would he a very good idea if you would try Paderewski’s style, Elizabeth (that’s using both hands). Joe, the advice we would like to give you is too much to write at one time, but we believe that the first thing we should mention is your “sax”. We have listened to it for four years now. don’t you think it’s time to stop that “racket”? Mildred, we know that you are a most unusual girl, but why don’t you try bc;ng still for a while? Our advice to you. Inez, is that you substitute a bicycle for that steed of yours because a bicycle is much easier to ride. Dorothea and Susie (I).), the hair-dressing business is gett:ng more profitable every day. Merlin, you have studied biology diligently and know well the habits of insects, why not organize a flea circus as your future career? Loretta, we know you have been afflicted with that terrible d:sease, “heart trouble”, and we recommend that you marry some promising young doctor as a sure cure. Sammy, we are afraid you arc doomed to be a thief. You have been stealing the young ladies’ hearts so long that ypu have surely contracted the habit of stealing. Madclyn, we feel that the rest of the class should take you for an example as you really are an exceptionally good student. Jimmy, your old “Chivvy” has lasted miraculously through all these years of school, but for courting purposes why don’t you get you a new one and let your brother finish the old crate? Marjorie, we know you are a Senior but don’t carry dignity too far. Buell, think of your Senior dignity when you arc on one of your Sophomore escapades. Edna Mae, we think you should turn your talents as an actress into a paying proposition. Josephine, we think that in this time of depression you should not insist upon your boy-friends spending so much money. Last, but not least, is Firp. Firp, you might have amounted to something if you hadn’t thought you were going to, however, the best advice we can give you is to try and overcome it. And now as a parting word let us tell you all to always remember the excellent training you were subject to during your high school career and we feel sure that you will benefit by doing so. —Helen Adams, ’34.

ATALANTA 1933 (Class Irnplicnj Having been inspired by the crystal-gazing of Joe Mountjoy in our Junior Class play, I decided that that would be a very good way to discern just what this particular Class of ’33 will be doing ten years from now. So I got down ye old crystal from the attic and proceeded to crystal gaze. First. I see the interior of a court room and pleading before three austere looking judges is the world famed lawyer. Elizabeth McClure. She is pleading a breach of promise case for Merlin Adams. Merlin is now a world famed actor.—Even actors have trouble. The scene shifts and we see the hall of the House of Representatives. The Speaker of the House from the seventeenth district of Illinois is none other than our Democratic representative, Samuel Roosevelt Turner. They are still trying to make the world safe for democracy. As the picture changes. I see the interior of a television studio. Susie Irish is starring in the newest drama of the television world. This is an outgrowth of her wonderful acting in the two class plays. Next the scene shifts to the wide open spaces of New Mexico. Here we see a dude ranch with Joe Mountjoy a proprietor. Too many wild western shows, Joe. Once again the scene shifts, this time to the interior of a country school. Now who do you suppose the “dear teacher” is? None other than James Odom. He is entertaining the pupils with choice selections on the mouth harp. The next scene is the front of a large, imposing building over the door of which are the words “Brandt Hospital for the Insane.. Chief Physician, Edna Mae Brandt; Superintendent of Nurses, Mildred Coddington; Head Undertaker. Susie Deavers. The picture fades and next is a newspaper, “The Atlanta Town Crier”, edited by Josephine Beverly, with a picture on the front of “ ‘Blushing Hayter’. the Prince of the Skies”, inventor of a new type of airplane and holding the world's speed record for aviators. At the bottom of the front page is the daily comic strip, “Snickey Mouse and Sculpto”, by Cartoonist Omar Blankenship. The next picture is in the President’s office where Madelyn Curtis and Marjorie Carlock are employed as Secretary to the President. Marjorie finds it rather difficult to keep her mind on affairs of state though with so much poetry popping into her head and almost screaming to be written. Next I see a woman drawing pictures for the entertainment of some children. Why, I do believe that it is Dorothea Eoercher and those children bear a resemblance to Ethel. She turned out to be a farmer’s wife after all those years of commercial work in A. C. H. S. Perhaps they keep the family budget balanced as a result of her training. The scene changes once more and I see the Atlanta High School Athletic field where the State meet is being held with Buell Cluck as manager. This is an outgrowth of the successful and popular Atlanta relays. As the scene changes once more, I see the interior of a large theater in Lincoln with Loretta King seated at the console of the largest organ in Logan County. At the same theater is Inez Douglas, successor to Clara Bow as the “it” girl and “red-headed woman”. The last scene is back in Atlanta and I see an immense new building, designed by Philip Crihfield, which is the Atlanta Community High School. —Edna Mae Brandt. Josephine Beverly. 133] ATALANTA 1933 « (Class .lornt Here is our clan of ’33, The class known all too well, And of its many characters I shall now attempt to tell. Earl Hay ter holds the President’s chair, And he holds it with a will. Let his black hair stand up in ire. And there’ll he a funeral bill. There is our somber Susie I)eavers, One of our pastoral maids. And behind those horn-rimmed glasses, Sparkle eyes of deepest shades. Sam is our “bashful barefoot boy” W ith grinning cheek of tan. And when no one is watching, He plays his Pipes of Pan. Yc have one Cinderella, Our own sweet freckled Ed. From her long curls and laughing eyes Cheer and happiness are spread. As the Speaker of the House, Joe fulfills all “Hie” hopes; He also gets the blame for mischief, And with other problems copes. Lorett’ wishes to take a business course. Rut we do not think ’tis wise. We'd gladly give her all our aid And furnish Home Ec. supplies. I)orothea is our wonder artist. She draws such pictures rare. That even the solemn Gardener Is proud of his maiden fair. Mary had a little lamb. He was a Raker’s son. They are two happy song-birds. And here they compare with none. Omar is generous to his friends, Especially on Valentine's Day. He would even walk to Lincoln To give his heart away. We have a Douglas in our clan W ith a good school-girl complexion. She is always up and ready W hen it’s a daily examination. Jimmy is our “Honest Abe”, A lean and towering lad. Yes! Shaking desks :n time of school Is his most favorite fad. Speaking of Alcott’s Little 11'omen, W e have one of our very own, Her name is Susie Irish. Throughout the country she is known. Like in the days of long ago We have a gallant knight. “Firp” wanders far away from home And brings back treasures bright. From the House of Lancaster Our maiden Ethel comes. Her usual smiling Irish eyes Show she is far from dumb. Josephine is our famous typist, All honors she did take. Won’t you show us how you did it. And give us all a break? Ruell came from the good old country Rut his ideas were citified. He has a weakness for brunettes, Though others he has tried. Madelyn is our fairy princess With her golden, curly crown. She’s the only dignified one In this class of great renown. Merlin will be our Edison W ith his knowledge of chemistry, If all depends on smartness He’ll reach his goal, you’ll see. Although she spends her idle time Eating in grocery stores, Mildred will be a great night nurse And serve in many wars. Now as the author of this poem Come to me with your charge, I won’t mind a single bit Because T am just “Marj”. Our helper, Miss Hieronymous, Has given us her advice. And we have taken it gladly For our judgment would not suffice. At last we’ve reached the great cross-road, Life parts and goes its way. Though we’ve all worked hard together To keep the onward sway. —Marjorie Cari.ock. (34) ATALANTA 1933 3UasclialI When Coach Price sounded the call for the baseball candidates about twenty reported for practice. There were a few missing from the team of the previous year but these vacancies were filled with very little difficulty. The pitching staff was composed of Jack Freeston and “Lead” Hamilton, with Hubner behind the bat in every game. Freeston bore the brunt of the burden with Hamilton pitching two games. The infield was composed of Paulsen at first, Crihfield at second. Kirby at short, and Baker at third. Paulsen was a weak hitter hut was excellent defensively. Crihfield. although not a long distance hitter, could be counted on to hit often, and played well in the field. Kirby was famous for his bullet-like pegs and also poled some long hits. Baker at third was a good defensive man and also could be counted on for his share of the bingles. The outfield was composed of Hamilton, Adams, and Cluck. These boys snagged most of the Hies that came their way and usually came through each game with their portion of the hits. We were also well fortified with utility men. Frantz, Mountjoy, and Haning breaking into the lineup frequently. Our best game was played against Beason on their field. The conditions were not the best, but a good ball game resulted. Standing: Mack, Spencer. Frantz. Cluck, CrihfieM, Haning, Coach Price. Seated: Kirby, Freeston, Paulsen, Hamilton, Mountjoy, Adams. 137| ATALANTA 1933 The game was an airtight affair with neither team scoring until the fifth when Atlanta pushed across one run. Reason went scoreless until the seventh when a desperate rally tied the score. This sent the game into extra innings. Atlanta scored once in the eighth and held Reason scoreless, winning the game 2 to 1. The fielding feature of the game was a beautifully executed double play by Atlanta in the seventh inning. With the winning run on third, the batter hit a grounder to the pitcher who held the man on third and threw to first to get the runner, then threw to the plate to double the runner there.

A great many were missing from the previous year’s squad, but the vacancies were filled from the ranks of the hopefuls. The coach had but two weeks to prepare for the first game with Kenney which was played on Murphy Hall court November 16. A strong team took the floor and took all the opposition could give and finished strong on the long end of a 27 to 22 count. Among the most important games were the Mt. Pulaski. Clinton at Clinton, and the Hartsburg Invitational Tournament. Mt. Pulaski, one of the strongest teams in the state, invaded the Atlanta stronghold January 20. Atlanta stayed with the invaders until the middle of the last quarter when they pulled away from the home boys. The final score was 37 to 23. The climax of the season came at Clinton when an inspired team from Atlanta outlasted the Clinton Maroons to cop a 23 to 22 decision. In this game, Clinton led all the way until the last two minutes when baskets by Paulsen and Crihfield shot the visitors across the finish line in front. The Hartsburg Invitational Tournament was staged January 14. Atlanta was unfortunate in drawing Hartsburg first. However, Atlanta pushed the Stags to the limit before succumbing, 39 to 26. Atlanta’s downfall may be contributed to the fact that they blew numerous “sleeper” shots. However, they came back to defeat New Holland in the third place game. Standing: Cluck, Reinmiller, Fulk, Crihfield, Frantz, Coach Price. Seated: Duffield, Mountjoy, Hamilton, Freeston. McClure, Paulsen. 139] ATALANTA 1933 Hamilton started the season at forward and played there till the last two games when he was shifted to center. A dead eye and one of the best rebound men in this part of the state. Two more years of competition. Dick Reinmiller, relegated from the scrubs at the middle of the season. Fast, and a good dribbler. Two more years of competition. “Pete” Frantz, played forward most of the season. An accurate shot and a cool, heady player. One more year of competition. Jack Freeston played center most of the season. He was a good shot, an excellent man on the pivot point. One more year of competition. Lyle Paulsen acted as captain and played guard for most of the games. He was a good, heady ball player. He usually was up among the leaders in the scoring. One more year of competition. John Hubner was a guard for most of the year but was out on account of illness for a while. He was fast and a good shot. He has one more year of competition. “Firpo” Crihfield was the only Senior on the squad. He broke into most of the games at guard. He could be depended upon for a basket now and then, and kept his head in a tight game. “Sausage” Fulk broke into some of the games. He was an excellent defensive man and came down the floor for several baskets. He has one more year of competition. vElic isrlirtiulr Atlanta...............27 Atlanta...............25 Atlanta...............33 Atlanta...............24 Atlanta...............23 Atlanta...............41 Atlanta...............13 Atlanta...............28 Atlanta...............49 Atlanta...............63 Atlanta...............23 Atlanta...............23 Atlanta...............31 Atlanta...............42 Atlanta...............33 Atlanta...............23 Atlanta...............24 Atlanta...............28 Atlanta............... 5 Kenney ...............22 Reason ...............16 VVaynesville .........26 Hartsburg ............53 Armington ............18 Minier ...............29 Clinton ..............31 Hartsburg ............39 Waynesville ..........18 Latham ...............17 Mt.

NO | ATALANTA 1933 (Track When the first call was sounded for track candidates, a large number responded. The squad was hampered in spring practice by inclement weather dished up by the weather man. Notwithstanding this the boys made rapid progress and were ready for the first meet. This meet was held in Lincoln, where the “Railsplitters” soundly trounced the Atlanta thinly clads. They copped fourth place in the special events of the Atlanta Relays, when Freeston took three firsts and Hubner took a third. At the time of writing several important meets remain on the schedule. With continued training, the boys have high hopes to add a number of trophies to their collection. The following members are putting in some strenuous work in preparation for these events: Lyle Paulsen in the dashes, broad jump, and high hurdles; Dick Reinmiller in the dashes and high hurdles; Joe Mountjoy in high hurdles and pole vault; Pete Frantz in the pole vault; Lynn McClure in high jump and pole vault; Harley Duffield and William Spencer in the distance events; Jack Freeston and Johnny Hubner in the weights; Earl Hayter in the 440-yard dash and half-mile run. [41] ATALANTA 1933 Atlanta lU'laus On April 22nd, the third annual Atlanta Relay carnival was held. This event brought together the cream of Illinois track stars. Such athletes as Chal-berg of Pekin, Lehman of Pontiac, Englehorn of San Jose, Cummings of Lincoln, and Freeston of Atlanta. All contrived to make this year’s meet one of the best in the state. The weather was not of the best, however, sixteen records went by the boards in the greatest wholesale record smashing ever seen in high school competition. The special events were divided into two classes and the relays into three groups as in previous years. The outstanding performance of the day was turned in by our own Jack Freeston when he smashed two records, heaving the shot over fifty feet and hurling the discus a hundred and twenty-eight feet. Englehorn of San Jose turned in two firsts in the dash events. In group A of the special events. Pontiac was first with 35 2 points, Pekin was second with 30. Decatur was third, and Monticello fourth. Bradford was first in Class B with 29] 2 points, San Jose was second with 25 points. Illiopolis finished third, and Atlanta fourth. Pontiac also took honors in the class A relays, with Pekin second. Monticello and Tuscola finished in a tie for class B relays, with Fairbury and U High of Normal finishing third and fourth. In class C relays Bradford tied with Illiopolis for first and Waterman took third. One of the outstanding performances of the day was the mile-run in which the Rideout twins from Tuscola finished one two in the record time of 4:48. On April 29th Atlanta entered the Urbana Relays and tied with Urbana for first place and will receive a handsome cup for their efforts.

It is a pleasure for us to realize that we have so many thoughtful friends. With the pleasure comes also a feeling of seriousness. We have looked forward with eagerness to the day when we should have completed the work of the past eight years and should be prepared to continue our education in the Atlanta Community High School. Yet it is with regret that we realize that we shall not meet again as pupils of the A. J. H. S. and as members of the Booster Club. To the teachers who have directed our studies, to the Board of Education, and all others who have contributed to our training, we wish to express our thanks. We appreciate the interest you have taken .in us and our activities. We trust that you are not disappointed in the results of your efforts. Again, speaking for the class of 1933, I bid you welcome. —Bob Applegate, President, Class of 33. (Reading from left to right) Front row : J. Baker, B. Applegate, R. Paulsen, I.. Kindred, I).

As we went along bothering our teachers, learning different things, we lost classmates and gained some until we entered good old A. J. H. S. with thirty-four pupils. When we first entered the seventh grade we were initiated and made members of the Booster Club. The first meeting was held at the end of two weeks and Juanita Taylor elected vice-president from the seventh grade. This year we furnished nine pupils for the Junior Band and under Mr. Larison’s direction progressed rapidly. Five of our classmates were in the chorus which won first in the county contest. Seven of our members were on the basketball team which won third place in the County Tournament. Six were on the track team. The last day of school was celebrated with a picnic at Miller Park after which we were then turned loose and given three months to get over the excitement and assume a little of the dignity that is only fitting and proper for one passing into the eighth grade. We entered the eighth grade with twenty-five pupils. Charles Baker dropped out of school, leaving us twenty-four to carry on the year. The first class meeting was held and the following officers elected: President, Robert Apple-gate; vice-president, Jeanne Knecht; secretary, Russell Kurth; treasurer, Maxine Baker. We were waiting for the night when we would initiate the seventh grade and make them members of the Booster Club. The first Booster Club meeting of the new year was held and the following officers elected: Juanita Taylor, president; Madeline Coddington, vice-president; Tom Hieronymous, treasurer; Harold Leach, secretary, which office was later taken by Gerald Colaw. This year three of our boys are on the track team which won first in the County. Six were on the basketball team and twelve of our members were in Miss Knowle’s chorus. This year a Girls’ Orchestra was organized, consisting of seven members. This year the following things are to be given at Commencent: Class Poem, Jeanne Knecht; Class Prophecy, Thomas Hieronymous; Class Will, Russell Kurth; Charge, Maxine Baker; Welcome, Robert Applegate; flute solo, Celia Garrison; saxophone solo, Juanita Taylor; cornet solo, Maxine Baker; clarinet solo, Robert Applegate. We are now leaving good old A. J. H. S. with all our fame and honors that we have won. -J- T. ATALANTA 1933 Class History of Oirabe jScOcu In the fall of 1926, there were enrolled in the beginner’s class, twenty-six pupils. This number has increased until now there are enrolled in the seventh grade thirty-six pupils. The initiation party was held the sixth day of September, sponsored Ly the pupils of the eighth grade, and their instructor, Mr. McCullough. From the seventh grade, the following are in the Junior Band: Robert Crihfield, Charles Jones, Donald Mouser, Albert Applegate, Doris Ludlam, Frances Deuterman. and Ruth McClure. Mr. Larison is the director. Soon we expect to join the High School Band. All pupils in the seventh grade are members of the Booster Club. In the Intramural Volley Ball Tournament, the winning team was composed chiefly of pupils from the seventh grade. Those who participated in track and field events from the seventh grade are: Lester Pruitt, Jack Brown. Weldon Johnson, Leland Pruitt, Harold Johnson, Lawrence Kindred. The Junior High School was first in Light Weight and second in Heavy Weight in the County track and field meet. In the Literary Contest, held at Lincoln, the seventh grade was represented in music by Doris Sullivan, who secured second in piano solo, and in dramatics by Mary Ellen Fulk. School will close for vacation on May 26th. Commencement exercises will be held on that evening at Murphy Hall. The three girls and the three boys having the highest grade average for the year, will be given the honor of being ushers. Our final social event will he in the form of a picnic, to which we are all looking forward. —A. V. A.

If any of these possessions, valuable or otherwise, have been omitted, we pass them on together with our eighth grade dignity. This last will and testament is hereby signed by the class of ’33. TA 1933 (Class :)Jncm As I take up my pen in hand, I’ll try to make you see The brilliant members of our class, The class of ’Thirty-three. First comes our teachers, Joe and Phil, W ith might and main they worked, To teach us, school is a place to study, And not a place to shirk. Introducing Miss Knowles and Mr. Lari-son, My, what a lot they go through! W ith all the sour notes we make They ought to feel down right blue. Next, Bob Applegate, our class president, One of our smartest lads is he. He’ll surely make his way in fame For a famous man he’ll be. And now I must name Cecilia. A modest, timid creature. But we expect great things of her, A nurse or a college teacher. i Let us not forget our Joseph. W'ce, curly headed lad, W ho fought the girls off all the time To keep from being bad. Grace Baldwin, so tall and so fair. No one with her can compare, W hen she comes down the avenue All the class cry out “How do you do!” Juanita dear, you’re getting thin! Advice—that you may win— My child you must drink Ovalt ne, W ayne likes a double chin ! Leonard Ludlam is studying early and late. May he acquire his knowledge and fame To become an orator, noted and great, W hich we all know he’ll later claim. Josephine Miller, our girl athlete. Is very good indeed; In basketball togs with a ball in her hands. She’s nonchalant as a queen. Mary. Mary, quite contrary. How docs your school work go? With A’s and B’s and not any C’s, And Gerald’s help—don't you know? Maxine Baker, spirited and gay, With gestures wild and profuse; Talks all the night and most of the day. Parading her mighty views. Dale Smalley with his appealmg voice. Makes the flappers heart go pitter pat. Do you suppose Listcrine gargle Had anything to do with that? A girl that’s always so sweet and clean Vivian Gresham, our own little dear. W hether it’s Lifebuoy or Lux, We’ll ne’er be informed, 1 fear. W’e will never forget Bill Thompson, The smartest one in our class; How he did lugg those books around. For his exams to pass. Next comes Jerry Colaw, Our smallest boy is he. If he but drank his milk each day, A taller man he’d be. Barrett Coddington—gee, what a man. When runn'ng he cavorts like a deer. Swift and fast, though not always so sure. Whether he’ll land on his feet or his ear. Florence Foley, our rural girl. From the country comes smiling each day. Now because on her face you’ll ne’er see a frown. Like Grape Nuts—there’s a reason, I’d say. Russell Kurth, our shiekicst shiek. Ruffles his hair in a most excellent way, Kids the girls, and trys to look tough. Nurtz to you, Russell, is all we say. Ivol Young can readily be told, Any place you chance to be. By g:ggling fits and her merrv laugh. And spasms of humor, you sec. [61 1 ATALANTA 1933 Evelyn Leach in her quiet way Very seldom makes any noise, Makes us all ashamed of ourselves. And we try to accomplish her poise. Tom Hie. a most expert horseman. Rides with pride and vim all his own. All turn out when he comes Riding his spirited roan. Another good athlete is Raymic Sullivan, In basketball he’s a whiz. He guards his man without a fault. And tends to his biz. To sleep in all his classes. Julius Hubner takes the cake. But when Lorcna comes in the scene, Julius is very much awake. A merry whistler is Harold Leach, He whistles from morn ’till night. If only the neighbors didn’t complain, Everything would be all right. James Baker in volley ball is pretty good. So I’ve heard from boys in this class. If in this he makes his fame, Don’t forget us—friends of your class. ’Tis I who wrote this poem, And had a dandy time, To jumble up the words so-so. And try to make them rhyme. -J. K., ’33. These things come to all men: death, taxes, and final examinations.
