The three magic numbers and the dial- turning procedure are forgotten hy many a brave and squaw, One of the favorite pastimes ol' tho Ca- manches is sports. Those who don't take an aetiyc part apparently love to get larangytis, or so it would seem from the screams emitted at games. Pep rallies and assemblies bring Mr. Wilson, this file won't sowl relief to those who are bored with study. Other welcome hrealcs come with the month- ly district meetings when the students are released for part of a day while their Elders diseuss the problem of how to manage ln- dians without scalping them. Comanehes are kept busy with activities ranging from harmonious music to the noise of the pep club.

Roth fellows made their mark in basketball. Probably the only senior cheerleader to be center on a lootball team was RILL BOLLINCER, remem- bered lor his monkey-like leap on the field.

Roth guys played basketball. Casanova ALLAN HOLMES also played basketball. BILL RUXTON gave his heart to a certain mem- ber of the junior class, Bill was on the football and basketball teams. Although he didn't participate in football his sen- ior year, BILL COLEMAN was another gridiron enthusiast, DON MUSKOPF, RICHARD MATT, GUY EASTER, and CERALD VVindy ROBINSON were head chefs in llome Living Class, and they ate their cookingl Pals DAN VVELCII and LARRY MUNDY were in the lockerefixing business. FRANK DEPPONG, new to the tribe, and Cl lAR- LES DONAHUE were much alike, Frank thought the 20th century needed a monument. lle must have planned to build it himself since he spent his fifth hour surveying, Girls were never able to catch Charles - he was outstanding in track and cross-country. ART ENTEMAN was always recognized bv the eurls on his forehead. and he 'was the envv of his classmates with his red convertible. One of the quiet kids that no one heard much about was MELVIN SCHARF. lr was said that he made frequent trips to East St. Louis to see a certain somebody-girl, of course. 'llhe whinin motoreyele kid, JOE Tl IONAS, was a Monsanto product. .loe also tooted a horn in tl1e hand, A real ecmnversationalist, FRANK FRY, was always interested in who's who and why. Everyone expected SIIIRLEE RIPPLINCER to eut her hair and he off to Fort Leonard Vllood, PAULINE FORNESS, SHIRLEY IIOPEVVELL, and l3E'I 'IAY SCI INITNIAGER were members of ESA.

Jerry Kronk and his trombone were a famous pair. JUSTINE JONES. band member and an asset to the annual, was managing editor of the Caliochron as a junior and co-editor her senior year. Moreover, she served the Student Council as secretary for two years. The basketball manager, JOE ERNDLE, could always be depended upon to blushg hence, his nick- name, Rosy. CLIFFORD IlEIL'S moccasins went to almost all sport events: he was sports' editor of the Council Ring. Ile particpated in cross-country, also, A sugar 'n spice cookie, NANCY SINGLETARY, was always on the run. Usually seen with her were IVA JEAN MORRIS, MARILYN TYLER, and Sl IIRLEY RACIIELL, Iva Jean's ambition was to be an art teacher. Marilyn was co-editor of the Calzoclzron and did most of the writing. She was a prom attend' tint, and Shirley was football attendant. The chief future homemaker, BRIDGET MON- TERUSSO, will for all time be remembered for the one time she was speechless. JO ANNE KERN was a well-balanced, typical sen- ior. She worked well, had fun in play, and even studied. DON FLEMING, a late arrival in the Comanche tribe, was a welcome addition to the senior class and quickly proved his worth. 16 Jerry Kronk Rodger Lane Richard Matt JOYCE MILLER betrayed her tribe for a Co- manche warrior from the '52 tribe. JEVVELL IIAYES was the warrior who Collected tardy and absence slips every day, Two girls who were noted for their earrings were JEANETTE JEROME and PEGGY HOFFMAN. RODGER LANE and CONLEY VVILSON. the cats of Cahokia, were noted for their bright pink Mr. R's and their pegged pants, EDDIE Tarzan RANGE was noted for his abil- ity to climb the rope in gym class. ELAINE Tootie STEIN was G.A.A.'s favorite chauffeur. She was prom attendant her junior vear and was escorted by an ordinary Joe. DARRELL RODEMICII was known as the Cold- cn-toed flying Dutchman. Ile played four years of football to earn this nickname. TOM RUSHING, another foureyear man, was known as the Mad Rushinf' The mad physicist RONALD ZARZECK was known for his extra-curricular activity-that of office bov. EDITII TRIPP will be remembered for her writ- ings. Shu was also known to have spent many hours grooming her hair, WILLIAM JOI INSON, better known as Junior, hailed from the Southland, Still waters lllllst run deep, for he was a charter member of the National Honor Society. These were the VVarriors of 1954. Some of them will be remembered as outstanding in sports: others, in music, and still others, for their ability to get along with others, Mr. Kneeht will always remember a certain senior leading crowds of students through the halls with his, Are you all going to the game tonight? Mr. Logan is sure to remember most of the VVarriors in his Ameri- can llistory classes. They spent hours in his classes seniorsf After becoming acquainted with the teachers and making new friends and really knowing our way around, we were transferred in our sophomore year to a tan brick building. In this building we overlooked small obstacles such as no floors, no doors, no books, and no quiet Cthe building was being constructed around us as we sat studyingl We also underwent another drastic change - we left the role of the Tiger to become Comanche Indians! Cmainly sleepingb learning who did what, when, and where. Mr. Hinson had the Wzirriors when they first came to Cahokia. Biology was something unneces- sary, most of them thought, and Mr, Hinson enjoyed many hours of argument in an effort to convince the Vvarriors otherwise. Mr, Hinson also enjoyed the squeamish look the girls had when asked to dissect a fish, And so it goes - all the Elders of the tribe will undoubtedly remember this group of Warricmrs. The Seniors own log would probably read like this: VVe entered a red brick building with a pack of green freshies, full of hearsay on what happens to kids like us. Strangely enough, even though we were to be Tigers, we could not muster a very ferocious attitude while ducking around corners to avoid 'those Wow.'

We had to plan the prom and banquet given in honor of thc seniors, It was our job to sell candy and cokes at the games in order to raise money for this prom and banquet. ln December, we gave a Happy Holiday Dance - the first dress-up affair in the new gym. With three hectic yet enjoyable years behind us, we came to our senior year and found it was the busiest of all, Perhaps it was the busiest because we wanted to cram everything into our last year at Cahokia Iligh. Our senior classes gave us much to write about, Our Social Studies class gave a Carlisle Dance and the unforgettable Twirp Twirln - the dance in which the girls got to ask their men, and pay for them, tool Social Studies spon- sored these affairs to get money for an Alumni Reunion held at Homecoming time. In English class we had some very heated debates. We never did decide whether or not Rosalind Russell knew anything about men. Shakespeare was also near and dear to us-Clif- ford Heil was even driven to writing poetry about Macbeth. We rcgretfully left our high-school sports and played our last games. A homecoming victory made a pleasant going-out in football, however. The last pages of the senior log are full of memos of a whirlwind of activities: banquet and prom programs, announcements, calling cards, final-exam papers Cthose with A'sD, and pictures from the last outing, Senior Skip Day. In worn moccasins, the seniors finished up their final tasks at Cahokia High. They were graduated from the Comanche Reservation on the night of May 28, The last page of their log now contains a diploma and a tassel from their mortarboards. bmues plan-um pow wow . . . rlillL' Junior maidens and braves spent the year in a varietv of xvavs - Vlihev worked many hours selling refreshments at home football and basketball games, and they worked manv hours planning the Prom. At times thev were exasperated when eombinations on loekers refused to work, or wrong books were grab! bed in haste, or arrows zoomed high over the targets. They found the hours long when they peeked on the new tvpexvriters, wrote strange eurlieues ealled shorthand Cwhieh took longerl or studied the Kings English. llowever, there was one relaxing class - rXmeriean llistorv 4 in which they eaught up on their daydreaming. Instead of visualizing Thomas jefferson, it was eommon praetiee to think 'of the new maiden or brave in study hall. The hours were shortest and jolliest, they discovered, when thev were at danees or in the halls relating the latest or even in classes-tor the aequiring of know- ledge was reallv the greatest thrill of all.

In order to be eligible for election, a student must be in at least the second semester of his junior year, must have attended Cahokia for a full semester, must have maintained a B average in senior high school, and 1TlLlSt be judged as outstanding by the faculty on the basis of character, leadership, and service. If a student at anytime after his election falls below the basic requirement for the Society, he is placed on probation for nine weeks. At the end of next stop . . . einstein this period if he has not regained his former standing, he is dropped from NHS. No one of the present members is perfect in all the qualities required. There are other students with higher scholastic averages who were not elected, there are others with better records of service or leadership who were not elected. These boys and girls are the best all-around students our school has. They have a heavy responsibility to carry, for as the pledge they took when they were inducted reads in part: On my honor . . . I will do my best to represent the four ideals of , . . Char- acter, Scholarship, Leadership, and Service . . . I will remem- ber that the primary purpose of school is getting an educa- tion . . .

Each year a group of students are elected to be the leaders olf the school. These leaders form a governing bodv called the Student Council. The Student Coun- cil is one ol' the first stopping places for teachers and students whenever help or advice is needed. A Stu- dent Council member may be asked to help in a char- ity drive, to assist a teacher in forming a well-organized dance, or to work with the administrators in develop- ing a smooth, synchronized student body. All extra- curricular activities and dates for activities are cleared through the Student Council. The democratic training which members derive from this organization will work toward the better- ment ot each of them as trusted citizens.
