Brown County High School - Rambler Yearbook (Mount Sterling, IL)

Text from Pages 1 - 80 of the 1952 volume:

r wown ( ountij School was opened this year in a completely new atmosphere—a new, modern school building with a new name for the school. This school is one of the modem schools in this section of the state. It has sixteen classrooms, a combination studyhall and library, a large gymnasium, a spacious home economics room, special shower rooms, and a boiler room. The halls are lined with lockers sufficient in number to accommodate each individual student. The gymnasium is in the center of the building with the classrooms built around it. Ample storage space for athletic equipment, etc., is under the bleachers of the gymnasium. The entrances are constructed mostly of glass. There are five entrances to the school. The football field with lights is on the east side of the building and the baseball field is on the south side or the back of the school. Slow construction delayed the opening of school for two weeks. Registration took place on September 17, 1951, and classes were held the following day. htigh School I i '■ ?} The plans for the building were approved by the school board in March of 1950. These plans were drawn up by Raymond G. Johnson of Granite City. Bids were received and the contracts let out in June of 1950. The J. C. Simmons Construction Co. of Decatur was the low bidder for the general construction of the building. Rowland and Sons of Rushville were awarded the contract for installating the plumbing and heating system. The Henry Electric Co. of Alton received the contract for installation of wiring and electrical fixtures. Thomas J. Higgins of Chicago was the consultant to the school board during the construction of the building. This building was begun in 1950 and finished in 1952. At long last, those who had worked and hoped for a new school building had their dreams finally come true. Dedication We, the Rambler Staff, wish to sincerely dedicate this, the 1952 edition of the Rambler, to Mr. Thomas P. McKinney. His willingness to help the students with all types of problems and his cheery smile have made him a great favorite with the members of the student body. His coaching of the football, basketball, and baseball teams have also added to his long list of friends. « 4 � « 6 � « 7 � CaRoL Cox .JeRBVj HoositR V '0' t Rick LARKy'Fbtte 7 1 H LL£ Loqsd ON PAvwi 0'CjfJNt.LL G-RACUC «Stcpl� 6WioH 7e CouLso « 8 � Senior Glass Play Sitting from left to right: Mary Campbell, Mary Moorman, Ann Sorrells, loan Hetrick, Bernita Kaehlert.

Their three kids, Wilbur, Betty Lou, and Connie, put their heads together and sign a pact that never again will they cause their parents any more grief. Mrs. Maxwell has an old friend named Gladys Smirk, who went to college with her and got a doctor's degree. Gladys comes to visit Mrs. Maxwell and they go to lunch together. Purple thoughts are now in the minds of the Maxwell offspring because they think Dr. Gooch is a man, and if father found out, they know all is lost. Everything ends all right, of course, with mother and father happier than ever and the children think that they are responsible for it.

Out On A Limb, a comedy-drama in three acts, centers around the problems of 18-year old Billie Weber. Billie and her friends. Push Pringle, Bird Brain, and Punk, are members of the S.P.P.—Society for the Prevention of Parents. Charley Craig, handsome new boarder in the Weber home, admires Billie's sketches for greeting cards and suggests they take samples to the county seat to obtain a license so she can sell them. The excitement begins when Punk, the jealous boy friend, sees Billie and Charley driving away from the Weber home with an overnight bag. Everyone thinks they have eloped. The tension of waiting for the return of the happy couple, the anxiety of the mother, and a sub-rosa romance between Aunt Mable and Professor Dodenhoff makes the play end with a flourish. The characters are as follows: Regina Weber Mark Weber Billie (Isabel) Weber Mabel Hyde .Carolyn Lawless Professor Dodenhoff Orville Gray (Punk) Push Pringle Bird Brain Charles Craig Dorothy Mattingly .Eunetta Dunbar Cookie .

The Antics of Andrew was presented May 8 and 9. It was under the direction of Mr. Benson. A giddy youth persuades a millionaire uncle in Australia to make him an allowance for the support of a purely imaginary wife and fictitious mother-in-law. When the unknown uncle suddenly pays nephew an unexpected visit to meet the mother-in-law and wife, everything happens. Andrew finding himself in a fix, induces Willie and Harold to masquerade as wife and mother-in-law. Results are devastating. Andrew's sweetheart is heartbroken; it ends amidst gales of laughter.

The Rambler was first published by the Mt. Sterling High School in 1928. Financial difficulties caused its demise in 1929. In 1938 the yearbook was revived under the leadership of Mary McCutcheon Hoffsess and William A. Harriman. Through the ads of local and nearby merchants every year, the Rambler is able to continue publication. The year 1952 marks the sixteenth publication. Throughout the past years the Rambler Staff has tried to improve your yearbook. This year being the first year in the new school, the Rambler has striven to have a yearbook worthy of the school. Our artist, Mary Moorman, with the assistance of Marjorie Bullard, created the division pages. Bob Walker, assisted by Chloe Davis, did the editing. Joan Cox, secretary and treasurer, kept the records. The sports section was edited by Mike Bryant, Darrel Parker, Dave O'Connell, and Jim Grover. Roger Quinn and Bruce Butler worked on the front part of the book. Genna Kirgan was in charge of the typing. The snapshots were taken by Mike Bryant and Dorothy Sailer. Ads were solicited by Leona Pam, Virginia Kerr, and Patsy DeWitt. Mr. Benson and Mr. Verticchio were our able sponsors. Earl Wilson, Sr., and Earl Wilson, Jr., did the photography. The Peoria Engraving Company, Peoria, did our engraving; and the Huston-Patterson Corporation, Decatur, did the binding and printing. « 16 � Sitting from left to right: Doris Brockhouse, Jane Hurst, Marie Gerdes, David Mobley, Cynthia Garrison, Don Brooks, Miss Bacon, Carolyn Lawless.

The genera! layout of the paper is planned by the editor and her assistants with the help and advice of the sponsors. After the writing is completed by the reporters, the production staff takes charge and the paper is mimeographed, stapled, and distributed to the students and faculty. The present staff is headed by Mary Campbell, editor; and Bernita Kaeh • lert, assistant editor. The staff includes ten seniors and six juniors. Most of the new staff members are chosen from the junior class on the basis of interest and ability. Members serve for two years. Sponsors for this year are Mrs A. Myers and Miss D. Bacon.

These men spend considerable time without pay in running the schools of the county. The board meets regularly on the first Thursday of each month. When necessary special meetings are called. The board has the responsibility of administering the community school unit. It is their duty to provide an adequate bus system, to secure the necessary fuel and supplies, to hire the personnel, custodians, secretaries, cooks, and teachers for the whole system. It is no small task to operate this school system. Trying to satisfy each section of the county presents many problems to the board. These must be composed to the satisfaction of all. It is well to remember that these men are attempting to supply the county with the best education possible at the least cost and without any remuneration for themselves. Remember these men with gratitude. Theirs is a tremendous task. « 24 � Mr. R. T. Crane. A.B.; M.A. Principal. Social Science Eureka College and University of Illinois Miss Dorothy Bacon.

Bob Patterson, John Norvell, Gerald McClelland, Dick DeWitt, Maurice Root, Bob Wegs, Leon Urven, manager, Jim Prillmayer. Eighteen inexperienced boys greeted the coach on the 27th of August for practice. With such a small squad things didn't look bright. However, as the season progressed, more boys responded. With a tough schedule ahead the boys worked with grim determination. Long, hard hours in the hot weather soon gave results They traveled to Winchester on September 14. The boys were physically fit but fundamentals and finer points of the game were weak. The season casualty list included Ed Norvell, with a sprained ankle; John Rodolf, Ted Hollembeak, and Don DeWitt sustained collar bone injuries which kept them out for the rest of the season; Bob Clark, a sprained wrist; and Don Dewton broke a bone in the lower part of his leg while playing against Hamilton. Although injury-laden and inexperienced, the team won the admiration of the school and community by playing rugged football: giving everything they had. Home games were played on the new athletic field east of the school. As evidence of the Hornets' potential power on the gridiron, three members of the squad—Gordon Bryant, Larry Patterson, and Stan Walker—received honorable mentions on the little all-state team This was an honor for the team, coach, and school.

After two weeks of practice, Coach McKinney cut the squad to 25 boys. The returning lettermen were Jim Grover, Bob Root, and Jerry Hoosier. This team had the honor of being the first to play in the new gym. The opening night drew a large crowd of almost 1400 spectators for the dedication. The team had hard luck this year, winning only two games. They were against Chapin and Central. There were many heart breakers among the defeats which were lost by only a few points. Although the records didn't show many wins, that is no sign the season was unsuccessful. A wonderful spirit and clean playing were always maintained by the team.

(1894-1951) Mr. Earl Wilson Sr. started taking pictures for the Mt. Sterling High School Rambler in 1928, the year the annual was born. Through the years Earl took thousands of pictures for us. Day or night, he was always willing to take photos. Earl had a world of patience with us. We don't recall ever seeing him angry. Even when someone moved as he was about to be snapped and a new picture had to be taken, Earl took another with as much forbearance as the first. Sronce, of Peoria Engraving Co., said that Mr. Wilson's photos were as good as any in the state of Illinois. Earl Wilson's slogan Our Photos Live Forever has written his own epitaph, for in our memories, he too will live forever. « 52 � HUDDLESTON IMPLEMENT CO Stanley Huddleston, Manager Parts Service — OLIVER FARM EQUIPMENT — • TRACTORS • COMBINES • CORN PICKERS • BALERS Phone 350R2 Res.
