E 1943 CANTONIAN FRESHMEN The Freshmen Q45 Young As They Loohj Those Underclassmen, better known as the Freshmen, have finally attained their places on the high school ladder. Tl'iey'll all tell you that the first year isn't as easy as it may seem to the upperclassmen. They've any number of difficult subjects to cope With. But aside from their various worries, these Freshies really have their good times and are, you might say, too frequently distracted from their studies. Having three long years yet ahead of them, they're the envy of all upperclassmen. According to all other students in C. H. S. they're the dummies of the crowd, but regardless of what any one else might say, the Freshies are all right and have a great deal to be proud of in their class. The Class of '46 boasts of a number of future basketball and football athletes. So to all you Freshmen, here's the best of luck and may you live up to your good reputation. Oh! To be a Freshman and start in again for four more years of fun-and studying. Seventeen

FACULTY THE 1943 CANTONI Sixteen Miss Reffett is the other member of Mr. Kietzman's office staff. She has the merriest brown eyes, prettiest smile and nicest disposition we've seen for a long time. Our only grudge against her is that she cuts stencils for all the tests we suffer through, but we'll admit she does a bang-up job at that. She, too, is a graduate of C.I I.S. Miss Rcifett Mrs. Storey is filling in for Private Deutch. She says it seems mighty good to be teaching school again. flt looks like once a teacher, always a teacher, doesn't it?j Like her husband's, her hobby is that curly haired son. Has a B.A. degree from Mac- Murray College and a M.A. from University of Illinois. Mrs. Anderson, the peppy person with the violet blue eyes and deep dimples Cdo the girls envy herlj, has taken over Miss Coleman's place and is doing a really bang up job of it, believe us please. She tells us that she has taught both science and P. E., but she didn't say which one she likes best so it's your guess which her favorite is. Her B.E. degree is from Western Illinois State Teachers College. Miss Willcoxen, the senorita with the keen mind and refined manners, teaches Espanol and English. She's a much travelled person with tours to Europe and Mexico to her credit, besides many interesting trips within the boundaries of the United States. A lover of poetry, she has a most unusual collection of scrapbooks. Her B.A. degree came from our own state university while her M.A. was granted by the University of Wisconsin. I Write no poem men's hearts to thrill, No song I sing to lift men's soulsg To battle front no soldiers leadg In halls of state I boast no skillg I just teach school. -Anon.
