WL Campus Cwew One of the most beautiful high school campuses in the country is our own. Every student is, indeed, exceedingly proud of the grounds. lt would be a true difficulty to find an equal to them in other public high schools. Many years ago the student took pride only in our large main building, and the adjoining cafeteria and shops building. In l9l7 the boys' and girls' gym, now used solely by girls, was constructed. The need for an auditorium, the maximum seating capacity of which is l2UU, was fulfilled in l924. Recently, when the number of classrooms again seemed insufficient, the answer was found in the library building of 1933. By means of federal aid our boys' gym was added to the group. We were very fortunate to have enough campus on which to erect these buildings. Today the student feels exalted pride in each of the six plainly but smartly constructed buildingsg he cherishes every pretty tree, every fresh blade of grass, he loves the sunken garden-in short, he loves the dearest of all alma maters, Belleville Township High School.

There are physical habits intellectual habits, and spiritual habits or at- titudes. Education should aid in the formation of wholesome habits, habits that, if good, or conductive to individual and human welfare, will make lite easy to live and release the mind to a greater freedom in its adventure in the intellectual world. Correct mental habits, when formed by conscious control of the mind make for intellectual brilliancy. The secret of this mental glow is conscious control of the direction of the mind flow. Correct attitudes or spiritual habits need as much stress as correct physical habits, which are quite well and gen- erally known or correct mental habits which are the concern of all classroom exercises. To be able to get on with fellow man, to live with and for a fellow human being, calls for a broad human outlook upon life. It means forming habits of good will, although others do not entertain our views of questions, yet we must accord them their views if we want our own respected. Good spiritual habits make for good social habits and lead to a happier interhuman relationship. H. G. Schmidt, Principal AB., B.S., A.M., M.S. BOHRD OF EDUCPITION 5 ,AN 4- T . Y -X ij-K 'I ff? S. D.

ENGLISH DEPARTMENT ORENA FARMER CDepartment Headj English is primarily a tool subject. The first aim of the department is to teach the student to speak, read, and write his native tongue on the adult plane, with correctness and facility. Such skill is necessary to the individual, for his happiness and satisfaction in life depend much on his successful com- munication with others. Another purpose is to familiarize the student through the content of the course with situations of life and make him think for himself. The regular English courses are divided into two parts, literature and rhetoric. In literature the best works of American and English writers form the nucleus of each course. Composition has two aspects, form and content. Attention is given the latter to help the student to think logically and to recog- nize and consider social problems. The English curriculum has several specialized courses: public speaking, journalism, junior journalism, dramatics, and college preparatory English. THE MATHEMATICS DEPARTMENT E. G. HEXTER CDSDQFIIIISHI Headj If education is to foster the cultivation of thinking that is both critical and independent, then whatever subject is taught should promote this ideal. Fortunately, mathematics has always been regarded as a subject that lends itself best both as a tool of thinking and as a mode for thinking. As a tool for thinking mathematics differs essentially form other fields of knowledge since it is primarily quantative, precise and objective. But as a mode of thinking it differs in no essential respect from most of the other subjects. All thinking as a method involves the definition of the problem, the formulation and testing of hypothesis, and verification of results, it involves certain assumptions or meanings that control the interpretation and solution of the problem, it implies certain attitudes such as suspended judgment, precison and accuracy within the limitations of the data that may be available, it is experimental and not dogmatic in its procedureg and above all, it is individual through and through since in no Way may one be justified in saying that one person can think for another. Education should become a vital preparation for living because it is the whole of living, and consequently, mathematics becomes converted into a tool and mode of thinking as valuable as it is indispensible because it frees the individual from the limitations of routine, habit, prejudices and physical weakness. Mathematics should be a tool and a method that should help humanize education. The Department of Mathematics offers a full four-year course as follows: Elementary Algebra 1 and ll, Plane Geometry lll and IVg Advance Algebra Vg Solid Geometry VI, Trigonometry VII and College Algebra VIII. SOCIAL SCIENCE ALVIN NEBELSICK QDepartment Headj The social studies include those courses whose subject matter relates directly to the organization and development of human society, and to man as a member of social groups. Their purpose is to enable us to realize what it means 'to live in society, and to appreciate how people have lived and do live together, and to under- stand the conditions so necessary to living together well, and that in the end we may all become citizens. HOME ECONOMICS CLARA B. NEUBAUER CDepartrnent Head, The Home Economic courses offered in B.T.H.S. are planned to provide training in the various activities of home life needed as a foundation to good homemaking and an introduction to courses a student may be interested in studying in college. Home Economics in our high schools and colleges no longer consists of just cooking and sewing. It provides courses needed to meet the growing demand in professional and commercial field for Home Eco- nomics trained women as well as for the Homemaking profession. The Homemaking III includes study of the home and family, home man- agement, study of wise expenditure of the income, relation of home to com- munity, child care and development. Homemaking IV includes planning and furnishing the home, care of the home, planning the wise use of time, health and care of sick in the home, education and training of little children, our responsibility to all children. Foods I, includes a study of the composition, selection and preparation of foods, planning and serving breakfast and luncheons. Foods II includes a study of food preservation, planning and serving dinners, marketing and special diets in relation to health. Clothing I includes the study of the selection and care of sewing equip- ment, fundamental processes for all sewing, personal grooming, a study of fibers and qualities of materials, planning, selection and construction of simple undergarments and dresses, and care and repair of garments. Clothing Il includes the study of design and color in relation to planning and selection of garments, simple tailoring, remodeling and construction of children's garments. Clothing III includes a study of principles of design in relation to dress hygienic principles underlying dress and the economic aspects of dress. The making of a handsome garment or article for the home, selection of household textile articles, make over garments, afternoon and tailored garments. Clothing IV includes the study of pattern making and fitting, simple costume designing, dyeing of materials study of selection of furs, textile fab- rics and laces, study of problems in consumer and other current clothing and textile topics according to needs and interests of the class. BIOLOGY DEPARTMENT F. I. FRIEDLI CDepartment Heaclj The Biology department offers courses in biology, botany, and zoology. The course in biology is required by all freshmen and botany elective to sophomores and zoology to juniors and seniors. Each course extends through- out the year. These biological subjects are of great cultural value as well as of wide practical application. There is noperson who does not come in contact with them daily in some of their phases. The home, the farm, the Wayside, the wood, the lake, the stream, and even the air contain living materials which are both interesting and instructive. Our furniture, our food, our clothing are largely of a biological nature. Our gardens, our lawns, our field crops, our industries, and our health are indispensable adjuncts of everyday life. Not only do they possess cultural and aesthetic values, but at the same time they represent much wealth. So significant and universal are the applications of biology in education and life that a study of these great branches of science has unusual educational importance. COMMERCIAL AND SOCIAL SCIENCE DEPARTMENT IAMES E. TRABUE CDepartment Headl The Commercial Department is faced with a twofold responsibility in education: first, to offer the students a fundamental vocational training that will enable them to support themselves according to a good standard of liv- ing. secondly to give the students the social and economic background to develop a knowledge of social conditions and needs, a consciousness of be- longing to a cooperative society, and a sense of responsibility to that society. To fulfill these obligations a four year curriculum is planned in which vocational courses and social sciences are offered. The vocational work is as follows: two semesters of General Business training, eight semesters of sec- retarial studies including office practice and advanced transcript, five semes- ters of bookkeeping including cost accounting and bank accounting, two sem- esters of fundamental business arithmeticg one semester each of salesmanship and advertising. The social sciences offered include one semester's work in each of the following subjects: Social Problems, Commercial Geography, Commercial Law, Economics and Sociology. THE LATIN DEPARTMENT PEARL IOHNSON CDepartment Headl A four-year course in Latin is offered in this department. This affords a student the opportunity to present a major in a language as a University entrance requirement. The first year of the course is devoted to the study of forms, fundamental principles of grammar, and simple translation. Roman customs, religion, and history up to 44 B.C. furnished material for translation in the third semester. Iulius Caesars Commentaries are studied in the fourth semester. Cicero's life and literary works furnish the basis of study in the third year. In the fourth year the student reads in the original Virgil's Aeneid. The Latin Club which meets once a month gives its members an oppor- tunity to study rather informally: vocabulary, forms, customs. Card-games, cross-word puzzles, informal discussions, papers prepared by members of the club are some of the means employed. INDUSTRIAL ARTS DEPARTMENT H. R. BRILL CDepartment Headj The Industrial Arts Department offers two years work in mechanical drawing, two years work in machine shops, three years work in wood shops, one and one-half years work in auto mechanics and one semester of shop mathematics. The department as a whole has the following aims: To teach tne work on a problem solving basis, to promote industry, co-operation and the worthy use of leisure time outside of school hours, recognition of value in buying and insight into allied trades and knowledge of trade products. The mechanical drawing section offers work in the fundamentals of drawing, lettering and sheet metal development in the first year. The third semester consists of machine design. Architectural fundamentals and design are taught during the fourth semester. The wood shop offers beginning bench work the first semester, ad- vanced bench work, turning, band saw, mortiser and belt sander work the second semester. The third and fourth semester consists of mill work. Wood pattern making and shop foremanship is taught the fifth and sixth semesters. The machine shop offers two years work which includes bent metal work, use of the drill press, power hack saw, lathe, shaper, milling machine and planer. The work of the first semester is principally lathe work. The dif- ficulty of the work advances from one piece tools the first semester to small machines the fourth semester. One and one-half years work is offered in auto mechanics, which in- cludes a study of the construction, care operation, and repair of the modern automobile. PHYSICAL EDUCATION DEPARTMENT EDGAR GUNDERSON CDepartment Headj Physical training in the High School gives the pupil the opportunity to indulge in self-satisfying, interesting activities, which will develop organic vigor and motor control. It plays a large part in the development of leader- ship, cooperation and sportsmanship. An adequate knowledge of body struc- ture is necessary to a complete understanding of exercise, its reasons and et- fects and for the formation of good health habits. The desire to indulge in some kind of physical stunts is inherent in most people, but this desire must be directed into the proper channels. In some cases, however, it is necessary to overcome a certain amount of physical las- situde and timidness to create an interest in play and physical activities and to actually teach pupils to play. In securing this interest, such pupils are given every opportunity to achieve a certain degree of success in physical activity. Yearly physical and medical examinations are given to every pupil, and he is shown the value of such periodic examinations so that he will will- ingly continue the practice. These examinations are placed at the beginning of the Sophomore, Iunior and Senior years. Classes are organized into sections and section leaders are appointed. Leadership is developed not only in the section leaders, but within the sections by giving the pupils opportunities to handle groups in activities and games, and, perform such duties as may fall within their abilities and capacities. THE MUSIC DEPARTMENT E. H. PETERS C. FRITZ tDepartment Headsj Edwin H. Peters, directs the band, orchestra, clarinet, saxaphone, French horn, flute, brass and string quartets. This year a new ensemble was orga- nized, a Woodwind quintet. The various quartets have brought State and National honors to our school by winning contests in their respective groups. The band plays at all of the home football games, parades, picnics and various civic functions. In addition to this the band competes in the Class A division of the Illinois School Band Contest, plays in assembly pro- grams and presents a concert featuring some of the band members as soloists. The orchestra presents several programs during the year including the operetta score and also furnishes the music for the school plays. Several members are selected each year to play in the Illinois All State Orchestra. Musical courses taught by Mr. Peters are: Music Appreciation, Harmony, Theory, and History of Music. The department presented a Musical Nov. 20, which was a tremendous success, and a Radio Concert over KMOX February 28 and April 9, at which several senior members of the band were soloists. Miss Fritz is in charge of the Voice and Piano, ensemble, training is received through the girls' sextet, boys' quartet, and double quartet, and the large glee clubs and choruses are trained in group singing. The Girls' Glee Club sang for the Southwestern District Teachers' meet- ing held in our school last fall and for several meetings held in the city during the past year. The sextet and quartets have appeared frequently at various school, civic, and church affairs. A Musical was given in our Auditorium on November 20th, 1935, by the combined music department, which also gave several Assembly programs. The combined Glee Clubs made up the singing chorus for The Count and the Co-ed which was given April 30th. THE ART DEPARTMENT IEAN SNYDER QDepartment Headj The study of art is intended primarily to raise the standard of taste in the average pupil and to discover and develop talent in the gifted student Design-the basis of any art-is taught through a variety of media: metals, wood, Watercolor, pencil, charcoal, clay, plaster, leather, tempera. The art department now offers four courses: Introduction to Art, Draw- ing, Painting and Illustration, and Crafts. Introduction to Art is a prerequisite to any of the other three. A student wishing to major in art may take a third year of advanced work in any course he chooses. Besides the regular class Work, the art classes design and paint scenery for some of the plays design, cuts for the school paper, and make posters and program covers for school functions. THE AGRICULTURE DEPARTMENT L. F. LENTZ QDepartrnent Headl The aim of vocational agriculture is to prepare boys for the work on thc farm. The vocational law sets up certain requirements for the local schools, which in agriculture are sane and practical. Each boy enrolled must carry on six months of farm practice under the supervision and instructions of the teacher of agriculture. Work is done, records are kept, studies are made and instruction is given, both in school and out, based upon the project. This department has a room equipped primarily for instruction in agri- culture. It has a farm shop for teaching of farm mechanics . . Farm Mechanics work includes all of the unspecialized mechanical activities that should be done on the average farm such as farm woodwork, home conveni- ences, forge work, motor work, soldering, harness repair, rope work, and farm machinery. The school offers three years of agriculture. One of soils, crops and horticulture, one in animal husbandry and a year in farm shops. ACADEMIC DIVISION THE TOWNSHIP HIGH SCHOOL Belleville, Illinois GENERAL REGULATIONS Relative to Division, Curricula, and Courses of Study Curricula are arranged in the various divisions to facilitate choice of majors. Each curriculum provides for a major in addition to English, which is required of all students for four years and provides a major in the curricula of all divisions of studies. I A student may transfer at the end of a semester from one curriculum to another in the same division or from a curriculum of one division to a curriculum of another division. The latter change may be had, but often with a loss of credits because of the necessary sequence of subjects. Before making a chanae from one division to that of another, a student should consult his adviser, the special counsellor, or the principal, as well as secure the approval of his parents. English 7 is divided into three sections. Section I is regular English, rhetoric and literature. Section II is journalism and literature. Section III is public speaking and liter- ature. All parts offer the same credit. lunior Iournalism is offered in English as an elec- tive with credit equal to the regular course of English. General agriculture is a first year science and may be substituted for biology with the same credit. This course may be more interesting than biology to boys and girls from the rural or near rural communities. Algebra and geometry are pre-requisite to any one who takes chemistry or physics. No language can be taken for less than two years. No history can be taken for less than one year, except English history, which is given for one semester only. ACADEMIC DIVISION English is required of all students for four years, and is provided for in all cur- ricula. American History and civics are required of all students, third and iourth years, and biology the first year. A mini- mum of two years of mathematics is re- quired for all curricula of this division ex- cept the general curriculum. All curricu- la in the Academic Division except the general curriculum are planned to meet all entrance requirements of colleges and universities. Students should consult with their class advisers, the academic coun- cellors, or the principal, relative to the ad- mision requirements of any particular col- lege or university. The Classical Curriculum provides tour years of work in Latin, the modern lan- guage curriculum three years in German, French, and two years in Spanish. A stu- dent may take two years of German and two of French or two of German and two of Spanish, or two of French and two of Spanish. No credit will be given in any language for less than two years work. Colleges and universities do not accept less and many require more.

The Scientific Curriculum stresses sci- ence and mathematics and provides enough languages and the social studies to meet the admission requirements of in- stitutions of higher learning. Not less than three years of mathematics can be taken in this curriculum. Mathematics may be elective the fourth year. Science must be taken for three years. The Social Studies Cucciculum provides a major of three and one-half years his- tory and a minor of two years in social sciences. Taken with language and mathematics this curriculum will meet general college admission requirements. Each of these curricula stress a particu- lar field of interest or a major. A student following up this field in college or uni- versity will find his high school prepara- tion very helpful. A student must have at least two majors and two minors and may at times need three majors for some col- leges. A major is three years in the same sub- ject, a minor is two years.

The Commercial Curriculum provides a major in accounting. The Secretarial Curriculum majors in stenography and typ- ing, transcript and office practice which later provides for filing. Transcript oi- fers abundant exercises in dictation, stress- ing speed and accuracy. The General Business Curriculum is in- tended for those who plan to prepare for general office work. Students should always consult their teachers, adviser, special commercial com- mercial councellors or the principal in all matters pertaining to their studies. While many courses in these curricula are acceptable for admission to colleges and universities, these curricula are not designated for college entrance. They plan to give the student a training that will help fit himself into Business life. The four year curricula gives a student ct well rounded training and no one should be satisfied with less.

Non Duci. Sed Ducere THE CLASS OF '39 We, who are now tinishing our second year ot high school, are much wiser. We learned so many things when we were Freshmen, but we know still more now that we are Sophomores. We want to live up to our motto, we are going to lead, not be led. This year our class elected the following officers: President, Robert Moore, Vice-President, Audrey Marsh, Secretary-Treasurer, lean Milstead. During our Freshman year we were proud to have Marjorie Veigel, a member of our class, win the Scholastic Award in the year of '36. We are not only proud of the Scholastic Award, but we are proud of three members of our class, who are very successful in music. Harry Harris, Glen Holtz, and Phillip Poser received awards at the Stale Music Contest held at Champaign this year. We are proud of our class, and we want to be real leaders.

Here We enter to bear the name of Freshmen for a year- The Junior-Senior rides may be unpleasant, but to be called Freshie and keep your temper at the same time is something to marvel. Upon entering, High School seemed different from the grades-admits -union cards-chips-library-assemblies-office1-all added to the interest of the school year. Yes, We can Well say that the school years are made in- teresting because of the splendid cooperation of our principal, Mr. Schmidt and the teachers. We really appreciate assemblies as an entertaining and educational recreation. From Freshmen to Sophomores, then to Iuniors and then to Seniors! Ah, We'll get there-some day, We hope!

Standing: Asst. Rauth, Mgr. Graf., Coach Tabor. Coach Tabor had a difficult assignment to develop a new team with but two returning lettermen. His team knew what to do and had the poten- tial ability, but lacked the necessary punch to be a winner. Next year he will have a group of boys with whom he has worked for two years and B.T.H.S. will be right up there in the Conference race. F OOTBHLL SQUHD EUGENE MCQUILLAN-Quarterback Mac was the most capable quart- erback on the squad. His signal-call- mg and team spirit was beyond re- proach. It was he that kept the Devils tighting to tie the score in the Cathedral game. McOuilllan will not be back next year. WARREN TAYLOR-Tackle The need of big men in the fall sport was again proven when Taylor reported for football in his Freshman year and gained a berth on the regu- lar team. Much is expected of him next season. IACK CLEARY-Fullback Although trying football for the first time, lack alternated with Becker at fullback and reached the peak of his performance in the Alton game, in which he was sensational. It was Cleary's senior year. GEORGE STALLINGS--Center Also attempting football for the first time, Stallings developed fast and earn- ed his letter. His accurate passes from center and low-tackling made him a valuable man. George is no longer attending B. T. H. S. OUENTIN WENTZEL-Guard Experience counts. After playing three years with the reserves Doc was placed on the Maroon varsity line and more than took care of his as- signment. Although light he earned his position and his service will be greatly missed next year. BRUCE MENG-Tackle Bruce has one more year to show what a big man can really do. He has been shifted from guard to tackle quite a bit this year but will capably hold down his position next fall. 73 FOOTBHLL SQUHD PETE GRANDCOLAS-I-Iallback Playing at center previous to this season, Pete was moved into the back- field and developed into cr great blocker. His blocking in the Benld game will long be remembered. Grand- colas earned his letter in his senior year. WILLIAM HARPER-Guard Being one ot the two returning let- termen, Harpo took the brunt ol line plays and steadied the inexperienced line. Although not last or big he gave his best at all times and won the re- spect of his teammates. Harper will not be back next year. DOUGLAS GREENE-Fullback Alternating at quarterback and tull- back, Doug developed last as the sea- son progressed. Illness kept him out ol the line-up ol the East Side game which was his last grid game. ROLAND IUNG-Center Bud started the season at center but an injury to his hand kept him out most of the season. He broke into the line-up against East St. Louis and was the star of line play, especially on de- fense. lung played his last season with the Maroons. BOB McKELVEY-End As one of the co-captains of next season a great deal is expected of Bob. He was a very valuable player this year. His speed and good tack- ling kept him on the line at end or guard throughout the season. DELMAR STOCK-Quarterback The little back's value lies in his ac- curate bullet passes, his timely block- ing and deadly tackling. Much is expected ot the pasing team, Stock to Mclfelvey, next season. FOOTBQLL SQUHD BOB MILLER-End Bob's ability to get down under punts kept him in the lineup most of the year. His fight cmd team spirit will be missed next season when he will not be attending B. T. H. S. BOB RIESTER-End Playing most of the year as a sub- stitute end Riester finally broke into the regular column in the game with St. Louis University High. He played the entire game and gave a good ac- count of what he can do. His speed at an end position will be used next year. BEN IULIUS-Halfback The Maroons will have several light men in the backlield next year and Iulius most likely will be one of them. What Benny lacks in weight he makes up for in speed and shifty ball carry' ing. MALBERN WILDERMAN-End Mal was shifted from time to time to strengthen the line. Starting the sea- son at center he was shifted to an end position and finished the season against East Side playing at tackle. His hard work, competitive and team spirit will be greatly missed next year. ROGER MERKER-Halfback Rog developed into the team's best punter but injuries hindered his per- formance throughout the year. Merker is one of the returning co-captains and is expected to more than capably hold down his job. BUD BECKER-Fullback An ideal captain. Although ordin- arily a center and playing out of position at fullback most of the year, Becker performed in brilliant style His playing all season, especially at Benld will long be remembered. Buds services will be missed next year. FOOTBQLL Belleville 26-Sparta U I The Maroons opened another season with a warm-up tilt against Sparta with only two returning lettermen, Captain Bud Becker .and Will Harper, the Maroons had an inexperienced but fairly heavy eleven. The heavier Devils had an easy time winning and hopes were high for another successful season. Late in the first quarter Merker made a 35-yard run to place the ball on Sparta's 34-yard line. Becker then plunged through center for the touch- down. Merker annexed the extra point. A pass, Becker to McKelvey and a 12-yard run by Becker added six more points in the second quarter. In the final quarter lim Randall recovered a fumble which led to another six points and Merker's pass for the fourth touchdown ended scoring for the game. Belleville 2--Benld O The crippled Maroons gained deserved support by defeating the high- ly touted Benld gridders 2-0 on a safety. The play that gave the game its baseball-like score took place early in the first quarter. With the ball on their own 22-yard line, Benld attempted to kick out of danger only to have Harry Meng block the punt and send it rolling into the end zone. A Benld back tried to run the ball out but was downed before he could take a step. With three of the regular backs and with injuries, Bud Becker was the mainstay in the Maroon lineup and turned in a brilliant performance. Belleville 0-Madison 8 The Maroons suffered their first defeat at the hands of Madison, a con- ference title contender. The Trojans scored first on a safety, the result of a blocked kick. A bad pass from center sent the ball into the Maroon end-zone. lt was recovered by a Maroon back who was downed before he could bring it out. Harsh plunging Madison back drove the ball over for the first six points. The smaller Trojans were too fast for the Devils and controlled the ball through- out the game. .J . ,pm wars.. . X-qvr FOOTBHLL Belleville O-Collinsville 33 I Held scoreless for the second time, the Maroons were smothered by the strong Collinsville Kahoks. The Maroon line-up dotted with substitutes suc- ceeded in holding thern to one touchdown in the first hall. In the second half the machine-like precision of the Kahoks passing and running attack began to work and rolled up five more six-pointers. Roger Merker, who sustained an injured right knee and Bud Becker were still unable to see service in the game. Belleville O--Alton 18 The Maroons lived up to the name, Devils, in the first half of the con- ference game with the Alton Hilltoppers. The Maroons completely outplayed Alton in the early quarter of the game. The work of Mal Wilderman in hold- ing down Leroy Harrison, Alton's all-state end, was particularly outstanding. Harrison finally scored twice in the last part of the game in perfect lateral-pass plays. Travis, Alton quarterback, added the other touchdown in the final quarter. Belleville 0-Granite City 13 The Happy Warriors of Granite City invaded the Maroon camp and made off with a 13-0 victory. For three quarters it seemed as though the game would result in a Maroon victory or a tie but a fumble by Becker chang- ed the Whole aspect of the game. Given the ball on Belleville's 16-yard line the Warriors pushed it over on four plays. Following a 40-yard run for Granite City's second touchdown a whole new Maroon team took the field until the final gun. Township High 7-Cathedral 7 Although no contest for the Intra-city championship had been originally scheduled because of the Maroon weight advantage a game was finally ar- ranged. The Cathedral score came late in the second quarter in a fluke play. Benny Iulius' pass was blocked and sent into the air and was caught by a Crusader end who ran 50-yards unmolested for the score. The Devils scored in the last three minutes play on a pass, McQuillan to Wilderman in the end zone. The Maroons made eight first downs to the Crusaders one and scored their first six points in five games. ' FOOTBHLL Belleville O-Woodriver 12 Meeting for the purpose of deciding the occupant of the cellar the Woodriver Oilers left the Maroons with a 12-0 defeat. The Oilers pushed their way to the 2U yard line in the first quarter and two passes netted them their first touchdown. The other Woodriver touchdown came in the fourth quarter when Eberhardt interceptetd a Maroon pass and ran 35 yaards for the score. Belleville O-Centralia 72 Centralia, with its strongest team in its history, handled the Maroons, with its weakest, the worst defeat for a good many years. Hails and Frost, Centralia backs, seemed to score at will and behind near perfect blocking scored seven touchdowns. All yardage gained by the Maroons was on passes from Delmar Stock to Merker, Grandcolas and Wilderman. Belleville 0-St. Louis University High 13 The Iunior Billikens ended their grid season with a victory over the Ma- roons. The Maroons had hoped to win this game and restsore their confi- dence for the Esat St. Louis game next week. In the first quarter Righ End Mours ran 35 yards to the first touchdownl and Ohmer plunger over the re- maining seven points in the final canto. Belleville U-East St. Louis 18 The annual Thanksgiving Day classic was played in the usual bad weather. With a slow field the Maroons succeeded in holding the strong Flyers to three touchdowns. East Side's first score came early in the first quarter when Nicholson made a long run for a touchdown. A fumble prevented the extra-point. In the second quarter Ed Postage, Flyer captain put the ball on the 3 yard line by a fine piece of broken field running, and Knavs plunged over for the score. Fuido's 60 yard run at the beginnig of the second half ended the scoring for the day. The Maroons, with seven playing their last game, fought hard and desperately but were unable to score on the conference co-champs. THANKSGIVING DAY EAST ST. LOUIS AT BELLEVILLE fffil. .

His untiring and Wholehearted effort in his many years of coaching has been far above re- proach. His teams have learned the true value of friendship, loyalty and in- dustry, which after all is the real principle of any athletic program. BQSKETBHLL Belleville 21-Marisssa 26 For the second time in three years the Maroons began the cage season without the service of a single returning letterman. The Maroons were de- feated by the taller and experienced Marissa five, 21-26, in the initial tilt on the victor's floor. Although the smallest man on the floor, Tom Dunck led the Maroons with 7 points closely followed by Bill Smith with 6 tallies. The game was fast and rough with 19 fouls being called. Belleville 24-Highland 18 A second warm up game was scheduled on the large Highland floor in preparation for the conference inaugural. The playing was slow in the first period with Highland holding a 4-lt lead at the quarter. After complet- ing the first half at 10 all the Maroons ca e back to slowly gain the advantage holding the losers to only one point innnlhis canto. With the return of the football men to the squad a week of intense drill was held in preparation for the dedication game. Belleville 19-East St. Louis 27 DEDICATION OF NEW GYM The new boy's gym and field house was appropriately dedicated by an over capacity crowd and a thrilling conference battle between the Maroons and the East St. Louis Flyers. H. V. Porter headed the pre-garne speakers in- cluding Principal H. G. Schmidt, Coach F. I. Friedli and Principal Baughman and Coach lack Nolen of East St. Louis. The Maroons' starting line-up had Capt. Rus Meyer and Tom Dunck, forwards Les Mueller, center, Bill Smith and Paul Taff, guards. The Flyers scored first after three minutes of play on an under basket shot by Berkeley Halstead ace Flyer forward. The need of taller Maroon men was seen and Roger Merker, lim Randall and lack Cleary entered the game. Randall, six- foot negro, garnered eight points in brilliant style to lead the Maroon scorers. Belleville 19-Woodriver 24 The Maroons played poor basketball for three quarters and then got hot in the last quarter but fell short of the lead held by the Oilers. Dunck and Meyer cooperated to score two underbasket shots in the beginning of the fourth quarter and Tommy added another free throw, Bill Smith added a long side shot and Les Mueller a free throw to end the Maroon scoring. Both teams missed many easy shots with the Oilers having the slight advantage to decide the fray. BHSKETBHLL Bellevillle 17-Lebanon 19 The Lebanon Greyhounds defeated the Maroon Devils in a non-confer- ence tilt, in what proved to be a thriller. The game was close throughout, neither team ever having a comfortable advantage. Burke's long center shot and Burns' two pointer in the last minutes of the game provided the necessary margin of victory. Belleville 10-Cathedral ll The Crusaders took the first game of the series for the City Champion- ship in a dull, non-interesting game. Both teams resorted to the zone defense to keep down the score and resulted in a slow poorly played match. Bill Smith put the Maroons out in front early in the game but poor passing and inability to score paved the way for the Crusaders four baskets and defeat. Belleville 15--Collinsville 31 The strong Collinsville Kahoks with the identical team of last year tripped to Belleville and defeated the Maroons in a fast well-played game. In the first half the Devils played excellent ball, holding the Kahoks to a 11-9 lead at the half way mark. But the second half Collinsville became accustomed to the large floor and looked like the championship club which they were. Walt Evers led all scorers with 10 points and impressed the local fans as the man to be watched to keep Collinsville out of first place. Belleville 31-Marissa 33 After controling the game for three quarters the Maroon Devils faltered and suffered an unnecessary defeat. With an 18-6 advantage at one point of the game, victory seemed certain but loose guarding again permitted Marissa to score unmolested. Fighting desperately to retain their diminishing lead three Maroons were ejected from the game for excessive fouls. A free throw in the last minute on Kautsky's foul tied the score at 31, and a one-handed shot by Church ended the game. Belleville 13-Granite City 31 The Granite City Happy Warriors invaded Belleville and made off with the Maroons final chance of leaving the cellar position. Realizing the hope- lessness of their efforts the Devils played listless ball while Granite City took the advantage at every chance. Purvines, Granite center, assured himself of an All-Conference berth by scoring 12 points and permitting the Devils center to score. Belleville 24-Cathedral 10 Evening up the city title series by a decisive 24-10 victory over Cath- edral the Maroons finally played the kind of ball they were capable of and had the spirit they lacked all season. Smith, Cleary and Mueller collaborated to put the Devils in the lead which was not threatened. Though the Crusaders fought hard the Maroons had gained the needed confidence and could not be beaten. Roger Merker showed great form in two difficult under-basket shots to brighten the first victory in the new gymnasium. BHSKETBQLL Belleville 20-Madison 29 The Maroons suffered their fourth conference defeat when they trav- eled to Madison for the first road game. lt was again the inability of the forwards and center to score which caused the defeat. Roger Merl-:er started a last quarter rally by dropping in two field goals in rapid succession, but the Trojan's defense tightened and the Maroons stopped. The Devils floor game was above reproach but they lacked the scoring punch. Belleville 22-Alton 24 Captain Rus Meyer and his mates came within two points of gaining their first conference win. Leroy Harrison, giant Alton center, provided the deciding factor for the Hilltoppers victory. Though Less Mueller did a good job of guarding the tall center, his height on getting the rebounds and tipping the ball in was too much of an advantage. The Maroons led, 17-16, as the half ended and the visitors were hard-pressed to decide the battle. The appear- ance of lack Cleary, Maroon guard, as a starter added life to the hapless team and they staged a hard fought game which was tough to lose. Belleville ll-Granite City 51 The Maroons travelled to Granite City and played to decide the occu- pant of the cellar birth. Neither team had previously won a conference bet although Granite was potentially a good ball club. They finally hit their stride in this deciding game and handed the Maroons the worst defeat a Friedli-coached team has ever received. Belleville 22-Woodriver 37 With Mihalich, star center, playing his last game, the Woodriver Oilers played inspiring ball to defeat the Maroons. Mihalich rnade eleven points and Hall eight to lead all scorers. A loose defense in the first quarter permitted the Oilers to score 14 points and keep in front throughout the game. Belleville 20-East St. Louis 33 The Flyers still had their first semester lineup and again turned back the inexperienced Maroons. Had East St. Louis been able to keep their first half team intact, with Ed Posage, Harold and Charles Stokes, they would have had little trouble in capturing the conference title. Belleville 18-Collinsville 36 Torn Dunck and Rus Meyer ended their high school athletic careers by scoring 16 of the total 18 points gathered by the Maroons. Tired from a hard game the previous night at East St. Louis, the Devils were outclassed by the taller and faster Kahoks. BHSKETBHLL Belleville 18-Lebanon 29 Playing for the first time with a revised lineup and on the unusual small Lebanon floor the Maroons were defeated by the Greyhounds 29-18. Lenient officiating turned the game into a rough and tumble affair with lim Randall and Burns, Lebanon forward, taking very active parts. The Maroons out- scored the home team 8-2 in the second quarter to knot the score at 9 all at half-time. But early in the second half Burns' one handed side shot again started the spurt of 20 points while holding Belleville to 9. Belleville 18-Madison 27 Hoping to Win their three remaining conference tilts and keep out of sixth position, the Maroons entered the game with determination but were soon overcome by the capable defending champions. Field goals in rapid succession by Merker, Cleary, Smith and Mueller put the Maroons into a 9-l lead as the first quarter ended but indifferent guarding and poor passing again cost a game that should have been won. Belleville 14-Alton 26 Losing to the Hiilltopers in another game that should have been won, the Maroon Devils completed their road schedule for the season. Inability to score from the free-throw line turned the toss-up battle into a defeat. Mak- ing only 4 out of 16 chances, the Devils lost the chance to remain in the run- ning. Reynolds, all-conference Alton forward, garnered ll points for scoring honors. Belleville 23-Cathedral 26 , With the City Championship at stake the local prep cage teams staged the most thrilling and exciting game of the year. With neither team ever hav- ing a comfortable advantage' the fans were in a constant uproar. Two over- time periods were necessary to decide the champion. The Maroons again played their erratic type of ball and lacked the spirit that enabled them to tie the series. Township held a one-point lead in the last minutes of the regular playing time, only to have Vernon Winter, Crusader guard, put his team in the lead. Bill Smith added a charity toss to send the game into extra period. Neither team was able to score in the first over-time, although Ed Kautsky had a chance to win the game with a free throw with but 5 seconds remain- ing. In the second overtime Canto Virgil Wagner, diminutive sophomore, forward, scored three tallies but with three Maroon regulars out on fouls the Crusaders added six markers to annex the title. Belleville 23-Dupo 30 The Maroons lost their first game of the regional tournament, held in the new gym, to Dupo 23-30. Dupo continued and took second place in the tournament to qualify for the sectional tournament also held in the B.T.H.S. gym. BQSKETBQLL Domi let liiiii score y Bog. llcisl Sl.

WRESTLING For the first time in the history of the school Wrestling was introduced in the athletic curriculum as a major sport. Several attempts had previously been made to provide facilities for those interested but there was never suf- ficient interest prior to this year. Though inexperienced the Wrestling squad made a formidable showing in its twelve matches and firmly established itself as a permanent sport and deserving of student support. g This years squad was composed mainly of under-graduates and will have practically the same team, with much more experience and ability, next year. The boys developed fast under the instruction ot Coach Walter Rauth and four wrestlers advanced sufficiently to participate in the State meet at the University of Illinois.
