Between the covers of this book the staff members of the new Carlin-Hi have tried to cram those sacred memories of the 194-6- 1947 school year in C. C. H. S. Undertaking the job of editing a year book for the first time proved to be a big job, but we tried our best to tackle every prob- lem that arose and make way for a year book worthy of your admiration in years to come. It is with pride-and a fervent hope that each year following may see an enthusiastic stai continuing the edition of our year book-that we present. to our fellow seniors, the under classmen, the faculty, and our friends this, the crown of our eiortsf called The Carlin-Hil'-'46 and '47.

A It is with a feeling of the deepest respect, gratitude, and rever- ence that we honor our former superintendent, Mr. H. J. Blue, who passed away on July 31, 1946. Of men like him Longfellow has most fittingly said: J Lives of 'reat inen all remind us We can 'make our lives sublime, And, departing, leave behind us Footprints on the sands of time, Mr. B1ue's footprints can most certainly be seen in the Car- linville Schools.

Their long terms of service point to how Well they have served the school and their community. With the help of our superintendent of schools, Mr. Littlepage, they solve all the knotty school problems that come their Way. Below they are listed together with notations of their professions and length of service on the Car- linville Community High School Board of Education. Mr. C. W.

Ohio University The position of superintendent has been quite well iilled by Mr. Littlepage. There have been many advances and changes in the-program of our school since his arrival. It is a common thing to see Mr. Littlepage in the hall giving a pep talk to some- doubtful student or en- forcing some unheeded rule in order to keep the student in the clear. As advisor to the student Council he has an excellent opportunity to bring about Faculty-Student co-operation. His ability and willingness are ap- preciated by all the students of C. C. I-I. S.

University of Illinois University of Wisconsin Miss Murphy, our principal, is very well known and is loved and respect- ed by all who know her. She is an understanding friend and is always willing to help those in need. A very familiar duty of Miss Mur- phy's is the granting -of admission to classes to those who never seem to be able to be in school on time. She serves in the capacity of both Dean of Girls and Dean of Boys as well as principal. Besides her other duties she also teaches mathematics. We all feel we c-ou1dn't do without Miss Murphy.

The Senior lass Oh Nobody knows the trouble we've seen, the mischief we've been a part of, and all the good times this senior year in high school has given us. There's glory in being a senior, in being a big sister, or big brother to our under classmen, and in sharing the bits of school wisdom gained during our four. years' struggle in Carlinville High School. But there's a feeling of sincere solemnity about being a senior too. As time marks oil the days and graduation nears, the realization ofiwhat We are leaving behind comes over us. The many friends with Whom We shared our good times will never be forgotten. Nor our teachers, whose untiring efforts to educate our sometimes unwilling minds never ceased. Behind us lie four years of studies, par- ties, dances, ball games, and lots of little moments that were so big and very important. These big moments in C. C. H. S. will always be a part of the memories of our high school days, the very best years in our lives!! Q l I I ce-rr is as . E W E 1 sg E - V E 1, I M 3.5 E3 Zi ENE 51 9 M E H A . ...ig E .

On December 7 the class presented a very successful three act comedy entitled A Date with Judy . Miss Mary Hoyt Stoddard directed the fourteen members of the cast. The class had a rather difficult time putting 'over the Valentine dance, which was held in the gym on the thirty-first of January. Votes were cast at the door for a King and Queen of Hearts. Each class had selected two nominees earlier in the Week. In a ceremony later in the evening Doris Davis, of the senior class, and Wendell Armour, of the Junior class, were crowned King and Queen of Hearts. The dance proved to be one of the most enjoyable events of the year. During the year the class advisors were lVIr. Klaus and lVIiss Wheeler. The officers were Wendell Armour and .loan Klaus, president and secretary, respec- tively. On the student council were Betty Boring and Floyd Behme. In the latter part of the school year the juniors presented the junior-senior prom. This is alxvays the high-light of the year's activities.

Inset: Miss Stemmons Miss Hoehn Sop omore C ass Sometime shortly after the beginning of school, the sophomore class, consist- ing of 82 members elected Bill Denby, president, and Pat Cerar, secretary. Shirley Cornelius and Theodore Fieker represent our class in the student council. Nliss Stemmons and Miss Hoehn are our class advisors. The sophomore class has been well represented in all of the school activities and has shared in athletics. As a united group, the sophomores hope to create a style which others will be proud to follow. The first project of the sophomores was their float, part of the Hallowe'en Parade. The sophomores met with their class advisors, and after much debating, the theme chosen was a barnyard with ghosts. Committees were appoint- ed and the plans went into making. In a downpour of rain, the float took its place in the parade. Later, around Christmas, the sophomores decided a dance was in order. Our president, Bill Denby, asked Mr. Littlepage's permission, and the plans got under way. The entire class went all out to make the dance a success. lVIist1e- toe, holly branches, and crepe paper adorned the gym. On the stage was a large Christmas tree. During intermission refreshments were sold in the bandroom, which was also decorated. As a class, we are planning to take part in more activities than before. We are hoping to be able to sponsor another dance sometimesoon.

Inset: Miss Kasten Miss Racer Freshman lass Last fall the doors of old C. C. H. S. were thrown open to 130 serious fresh- men. They assembled with the help of their class advisors, Miss Rocci and Miss Kasten, to choose as their leaders Peter Konneker, presidentg Mary Denby, secre- tary-treasurerg Norma Raab and Kenneth Klaus, student council representatives. We are all quite proud of the large percentage of 'freshmen boys who partic- ipated in athletics. They have shown promise against neighboring schools. To the freshmen football boys the school presented well earned numerals which were re- ceived with pride. The class float, our contribution to the Hallowe'en parade, was decorated with seasonal corn stalks. Four brave witches, who against the will of the Weather re- mained cheerful, stirred a mysterious brew, making worthwhile all the time spent preparing the float. Nominees for King and Queen of Hearts at the junior Valentine dance were Helen Armour and Eugene Caselli, two of the class's outstanding personalities. The freshmen have been particularly active in musical organizations and other school activities. In View of the outstanding talents and abilities shown by this class, We are sure they will be future leaders' in our schools.

T e Cavaliers Play Foot all Under the excellent coaching of lVIr. Rossetti and assistant coach Ryman the Cavalier eleven showed a brilliant knowledge of football tactics. The squad elected Charles lVIonetti as captain of the 1946-47 season, On September 21, after two Weeks of hard work, sore bones, and disappointments, the Cavaliers tried their luck with Lanphier. Lanphier proved too much for us by defeating us 12-O. After that we got down to work by defeating Girard and Nolcomis on our home field. The following week the Cavaliers, traveled to Virdcn and in a furious game ended with a 0-0 tie. ln the next five games fate played against us. Benld handed us a 6-0 defeat on a very wet field, although some think the game should have been called the other way. We tied lVlt. Olive 2-2, but Staunton and Feitsbans both handed us defeats. On November 16 we tied Nlarqnette 7-7. November 28 the traditfonal Thanksgiving Day game was played between Carlinville and Gillespie. 5' hoztgh the Gillespie team was considered one of the best in this county, the Cav- ere - P them a terrific battle and ended with a 6-6 f llthough the team didn't how tlz.

This was the last game of the season and, in the minds of the players, the most important. For three years Gillespie had defeated Carlinville. Now Gillespie was tied for first place in the conference, and Carlinville was in a position to upset them. The largest crowd of the season was present as the teams marched onto the field. Captain Monetti Won the toss and chose the wind. The two teams exchanged the ball stubbornly, both fighting desperately. At the half, the score remained 0-0. In the third quarter, Carlinville came through, Jim Denby recovering a Gillespie fumble and then going on to score early in the fourth. Gillespie soon made a come- back, and scored, leaving the game in a tie as the horn sounded.

The Cavaliers Play Basketball Q The progress of the 1947 basketball team was Well summarized by a statement of Coach Rossetti's. The first time we played Benld, We bothered them for a quarter. The second time we bothered them for two and one-half quarters. The third game we had them worried all the way throughf' We started out with boys that had not had quite enough experience. But they showed us all through the year that a Cavalier team is going to stay up therel Never did the fighting spirit falter. Sportsmanship was all-important. Coach Rossetti and his assistants, Ryman and Sullivan, deserve a lot of credit for helping these boys along. The scores went up and down, but this team kept at it rain or shine. They played good ball all year and always showed the fighting Cavalier' spirit. Cavalier Coaches Hats off to coach Roc Rossetti and his blushing assistant johnny Ryman!! They did a bang-up job in putting Car- linville high ahead in athletics this year. Rods direct frankziess and fight to the fin- ish attitude are just a small part of the good things the departing senior athletes will remember about their coach. Coach Ryman left our school in Febru- ary to accept the position as head coach at Ashland, but behind him he-leaves a vivid remembrance of the gcncl sportsmanship and school spirit that he himself possessed and Ptaeed on so willinvl-v to others. mari wa AWK xl.

The Cavaliers 011 The Track The track season of last year brought hopes of a really successful one in 1947. We are expecting some big things from the returning lettermen. Of course, the graduating seniors left a few tough spots to fill. One of last year's standouts was the half-mile relay, which was run by several of the seniors, Bill Hesseldenz, Mar- vin Totsch, Walter Bevers, Floyd Weller, and Harold Bloome. We believe we have the replacements though in some of our speedy juniors, along with a couple of sen- ior sprinters. A replacement for Ed Boente in the shot put and discus isn't easy in anyone's language, but an entirely capable kme is Jim Hartley. Some hard work and experience should put him up to the top. ln the high jump and pole vault, we will have several men returning. Some good performers of last year were .Bob Alberico, Sterling- Littlepage, Bob jones, Bob Jennings, Harold Bloome, and Walter Bevers. There should also be a world of talent in the broad jump. Back to bolster the longer distances will be Fred Opper, an always successful mile-man , Howard Karrick, who will probably decide on the quarterg Gerald Tetzlaff, who should be great in both the mile and half mileg along with Floyd' Behrne, Randall Loveless, and several other Cavaliers who will hold up the team in the endurance route. Bill Hardin, Don Wheeler, Fred Smith, and other hurdlers should be an improvement in that line. The Cavaliers have a bright season to lo-ok forward tog so let's all follow them and support them. Girls In thleties The girls of Carlinville Community High School, with the help of their phys- ical education instructor, lVIiss Betty Wheeler, had hoped to be able to organize a Girls' Athletic Association this year. Since this proved impossible, and because the girls are not allowed to play against teams from other schools, an inter-class basket- ball tournament is planned for the latter part of the year. A team, or possibly two teams, will be made up of the members of each of the physical education classes. Practically all of the plans have been completed for the tournament. Now the girls are hoping that Coach Rossetti will allow them to use the gymnasium floor more often than once every two weeks after school hours. Although the girls' rules ex- clude dribbling the ball, they get a huge amount of enjoyment out of their basketball games. Besides basketball the girls have soccer, volleyball, baseball, and, of course, calisthenics. Along with all of these activities some of our class periods are taken up with dancing. ' All of the girls want to thank lVIiss Wheeler for Working so hard in planning the tournament. We know it will prove to be a success. B Emil 1 W..

The senior girls of y46 organized the first issue. They chose Mrs. Chapman as their advisor, insuring the success of their project. The first issue went over well, and the student body wanted to continue their paper named the Cavalier by a school election. The paper went on through the year under the leadership of its co-editors -lim Hardie and Virginia Hoelting. With the experience gained last year, the Cavalier has been even more success- ful in 1947. A hard working staff led by Virginia Hoelting, senior editor, Bernard Hoelting and Joann Horky, junior editors, has really published a newspaper Car- linville High can be proud of. Other members of the staff have written excellent articles, indicating superior ability in journalism. Those sports editors have done a wonderful job on covering the football and basketball games, and have done a lot to make the teams feel that we are really there behind them. No one really knew who our artists in C. C. H. S. were until the Cavalier Came to need their talent. They have done a swell job making the Cavalier an all round publication. What page do we read first? The gossip of course. Our gossip columnists have covered the big deals circulating in each class and made them public property. Each issue has found some special added attraction in a special club report or personality item. But who ties all these departments together to make the paper complete? Vir- ginia Hoelting and her junior assistants have made our 1947 Cavalier what it is. Mrs. Chapman has again advised the aspiring journalists making it possible for Carlinville High to have a newspaper.

The chorus' Thanksgiving Day appearance, its part in the Christmas and Spring concerts, and work at baccalaureate and commencement are some of the high lights of a successful season. This year, for the first time, the group had a healthy percentage of fine voices in each of its three sections, and the boys' interest and voices will be hard to beat in any high school of our size. One of the most encouraging things about thc group was the fine number of freshmen reporting for the rehearsals. These folks are sure to bc a well seasoned block around which to build future groups. The individual interest and willingness to do the very best, and a little more, has made the group capable of singing numbers far above their experience level. A group anxious to enter into any school activity and do its bit, this 1946-47 mixed chorus will go down in thc history of Carlinville Community High School music department as one of the best.

Football games just wouldn't be complete without the band playing The Star Spangled Banner during the flag raising, snappy marching at the half with novel arrangements, original formations, and the flashing batons of the majorettes. This spring the band is planning to participate as a whole in the Gillespie lVIusic Festival, and a large number of the hand members are planning to compete in the annual music contest held each year. The band is also making plans for a formal spring concert. ln December, 12 members attended the Hillsboro lVIusic Festival, under the direction of lVIr. Joseph E. Skornicka, Guest conductor. Last summer the high school band Went to the Illinois State Fair in Springfield to compete with other bands from schools in the State whose enrollments were between 300 and 800. We received a first-division rating and the Governor's award and trophy. This trophy is the first music trophy that has been presented to the Carlinville High School. During the past few years our band has been making progress rapidly. We have Won the respect and recognition of the citizens of Carlinville, and we have been asked many times to play for VZl1'iUllS organizations in the community. We would like to thank those who have supported our band and helped make it one of the more outstanding bands of its size in the State.

After four long hard Weeks of practicing, helping each other learn parts, and most of all, thinking of the night of December 6, our Junior class presented the play, A Date With Judy. We all thought we had a big crowd, and 'were We ever proud when they said we had broken the record in attendance. Some things we learned in the play were that Gerry Tetzlaff will be a nice looking man when he is forty or so by the mustache he wore, that John VVoodroW likes bright things-especially clothes, and that Tiny Miller will make a good actress as a kid sister. All in all we thought it was a huge success. and we wish to thank Miss Stod- dard and all the faculty for the grand help tl'--gt gave uf . gt, - Ss M, H ,S Bs. f sa .

And Came the Spring They say a school play is something to be remembered always, and We seniors will never forget our junior class play, And Came the Spring. And Came the Spring was a typical teen-age play about the Hartman family, their trials and tribulations. The mischievous and energetic Midge Hartman was played by Virginia Hoelting, and the easy-going and good-natured Buzz, by Fred Opper. Bill Kuester portrayed the rather confused lVIr. Hartman, and we all agree that Bill looked quite dignified with a mustache. Mrs. Hartman, a charm- ing and understanding mother, was played well by Shirley Wiggins. Judy Perrottet took the part of Virginia, NIidge's attractive seventeen year old sister, and Virgil Pistorius was their tall, slender brother, Elliot, who just couldn't seem to remem- ber to comb his hair. Edna, the attractive maid, and Clancy, the gardener and once a football hero, were played by Carolyn Juergensmeyer and Don Love. The part of Carolyn Webster, a New York glamour girl, was taken -by lVIary McEwen. Richard Leffelman as Keith Nolan was quite the sophisticated young man. We all laughed at the energetic 'flitterbugsf' Gabby and Freddie, played by Janice Mc- Coniga and Bob Stephensong and we all enjoyed Christine lVIeyers, the dynamic athletic cheer-leader, played by Joyce Calverd. Mr. and Mrs. Fields were excellently presented by Louis Bouillon and Niary Killam. We'll never forget how lVIrs. Fields ran the Fields family until the end, when a decided change was made. Their son, Alan, an embarrassed and very shy eighteen year old boy, was played by Russell Al- derson. And last but not least was our tap-dancing messenger girl, Doris Davis, who showed plenty of talenti Under the direction of Mrs. Chapman and lVIiss Wheeler, the play cast did a swell job. Orchids to our directors who really put up with a lot from us. Every- one agreed that it was one of the best plays ever staged at C. C. H. S.

The Carlinville Chapter of the Future Homemakers of America was organized soon after the opening of school in September. There were 111 Charter Bdembers present. The purpose of the organization is given in the state motto, Toward New Horizons. , The ,group nominated and elected chapter officers at our first meeting. The officers are President, Jacqueline Berryg Vice-President, Virginia Hoeltingg Secre- tary, Joann Bilbruckg Treasurer, Imogene Carterg Reporters, Hope Jones and Ramona Anderson. All members are Working or will have worked on 11 committee in the organization during the year. The meetings are held each month. A night meeting is held on alternate A . months. The business meeting is conducted firstg then a recreation period follows. By the end of the year we hope to have completed several projects-among these, friendship boxes for children overseas, completion of our ,chapter scrapbook, and a party or tea to honor our mothers. . Our scrapbook is 'to be entered in competition with those made by other chap- ters. The scrapboolcs winning in the sectional judging are then sent to the state Future Homemaker Camp which is held each year in August. Our group will be allowed to choose two girls as delegates to attend this Camp. At present the girls are earning points so that they can receive the F. H. A. pin and guard. By completing certain other requirements they can also receive degrees. The four degrees with symbols are Junior Homemaker, the symbol, keyg Chapter Homemaker, the symbol, scroll: State Homemaker, the symbol, torchg and American Homemaker, the symbol, rose. We hope our F. H. A. Club may continue in the coming ve-nrs and be as suc- cessful as we feel We have been this year.

Among the highlights of the year was the State Sectional election of officers in which Russell Alderson of Carlinville was elected Vice President of Section 15. The Annual Fall Grain Show, sponsored jby Carlinville, together with the Annual Greene County Fair, netted the boys around 33,000 in premium money. ln conjunction with this show, the grain judging contest was held, in Whichwe' placed first in thelsection. We also placed four boys in the high ten of Sectioxi 15. ' The biggest event of the year-. is always, Family' Night, ,-held the latter part of the last semester. ' vi --.,. In May there is a fat stock and dairy judging contest in which Carlinyille hopes to retain its goo d reputation. Top row: Sterling Littlepaee.

The Science Club This year we have organized a new science club which We think will give a grand opportunity to students interested in any kind of science. Nlr. Leasman, our advisor, has gotten information on starting a science club from the Science Club of America. Our officers are President, Charles Monettig Vice-President, jim Denbyg Treasurer, Fred Smithg Secretary, Richard Leifelman. Cur purpose is to give everyone interested in science a chance to work with, and learn more about, his particular interest. Our members may Work in our chemistry laboratory, and learn by doing research, or by actually doing the thing outside of school. This way We learn about the facilities of science in our community. Among the many projects which individuals or small groups may take up are drugs, medi- cines, astronomy, radio, photography, and, even such extraordinary things as mak- ing cosmetics, taxidermy, and crime detection! As yet we have to decide on a name for our science club. We are also going to set up a constitution. The Science Club of America has sent a sample constitu- tion to use as a pattern for our own. We feel that this constitution is important because we want it to be used in the science clubs of our school in the coming years. Yes indeed! Our new science club has a bright future! 1 Left to right standing: Kenneth Klaus.

When electing a student council member, one should think of the ability of this person to help promote good government in the school. At the first meeting of the Student Council, Council officers are elected. The nominees are elected by the Council members. The Council officers for this term are President, Betty Boringg Secretary, Norma Chapin. At the first of the year the Council was divided in half. One half of the Coun- cil was to help plan assembly programs, and the other half was to work on the newspaper staff. With the help of the faculty, ,the Council planned many interest- ing and entertaining assembly programs. At other meetings of the Council they planned to have tables in the lower hall to help promote the Red Cross and Infantile Paralysis Drives. I Each year the Student Council Works harmoniously with the faculty and stu- dent body in the planning for a better Carlinville High School. Seated left to right: Alice Jackson, Norma Fones, Helen Newby. Standing: Joann Bilbruck, Helen I-JHY Virginia Fones, Mrs. Chapman, Dorothy Williams, Ramona Anderson. tudent Librarians Assisting in the library are eight girls who check books-,ini and out for the student body every period in the day. These girls devote several hours each week to this kind of Work, and are awarded letters during a special assembly held at the end of the year. The teacher you may see hurrying in and out of the library is Mrs. Chapman, school librarian and senior English teacher. She is constantly hurrying about to help the students find any information they may need. Under Mrs. Chapman's supervision the following girls have served the school well this year: Norma Fones, Alice Jackson, Helen Liay, Virginia Fones, Joann Bilbruck, Helen Newby, Ramona Anderson, and Dorothy Williams. lnaddition to the rou- tine work of checking books some of the girls repair torn tezit books, type added entry cards for the catalog, manage the reserve shelf, straighten the book lines, care for the periodicals, give advice on books, and just about any little thing that comes their way. A . V . A 1- .,:- II ' Through the assistance of these girls, the library is madetfavailable at any hour of the day to the students. V Q 4, , . ' M- . Mrs. Chapman and these girls are to'i'liei'thanked by ievery member of the student body and faculty. Their work is beyondfoompafelifirfl Hurnmettes This busy, on the go organ- ization composed of six senior girls represented a group anx- ious to learn and have fun while learning. The girls chose their own name and emphasized it in the arrangement of their theme song by opening their performance- humming!! With Joyce Calverd at the piano, and Norma Chapin, Blic- key llflorehead, lVIary lVIcEwen, Judy Perrottet, and Ginny Hoelt- ing doing the harmonizing, these girls became well known C. C. H.

Betty Boring, our lovely head majorette, has two very talented young ladies back- ing her, Joann Bilbruck and Eva lldae Lee. The night Feitshans played here the lights were turned off and Betty twirled with a lighted baton, which made a very im- pressive effect. The girls are always ready, and willing Whenever they are asked to participate in anything.

T e Cafeteria We've heard people try to tell us that if you eat at a certain time every day, you won't get hungry until that time. Well in: most cases that might apply, but we do know one exception! Whether students are the lucky so-and-so's who have dinner 4A, the moderately lucky who eat at 4-B, or the right-down unfortunate who eat at 4C, about 11:45 they begin to dream of all those good, hot viands they're going to devour if the right time ever comes. The cafeteria, under the leadership of Mrs. Betty Baker, with 'Mrs. Moran, lVlrs. Skeen, lldrs. lVIcKee, and lVIrs. Seaton assisting, has been a great success. We're sure each and every student agrees that their plan to serve delicious, steamy lunches has certainly been fulfilled. -The food, prepared in the most appetizing ways possible, is heartily greeted by a large per cent of the student body. Their beef stew is the best ever, and We'd even say their spaghetti is almost as go-od as moth- er's! None will ever forget the big, fat turkey that celebrated Thanksgiving at school. Just to make things a little more cheerful, Mrs. Baker always has some little reminder on the board telling us to be sure to Win at a ball game, a bit of advice, or perhaps a Wish for holiday cheer. , Everyone thinks of the Bee as the place to go and talk things over, hear the latest bit of gossip, stick up for the Cardinals, or complain about your latest test paper, but we're sure the cafeteria is a close runner-up. There students make acquaintances, mix, and talk o-ver the latest events of the day. It's a grand chance for seniors to meet freshmen and to make them feel at ease in this new world of high school. Everyone is friendly: everyone has a good word or two for you. No wonder meals are enjoyed even more! What a wonderful addition this new cafeteria has been for our school! Let us all join with one accord to shout heartily, Three cheers for the cooks, the best cooks ever! :IQ r . , , A 'E . ii' -Wu 4. ' ht i.

Chamness and Rutherford Mg History Uf Our' School This district was formed in 1919, for at that time there was a demand for more facilities for high school education for the people of this district. Everyone was for it. At the request of several citizens, a petition was filed with the County Superintendent of Schools of Ma- coupin County to form a county high school district under a statute that had been passed only a few years before. The petition as was presented to the County Superintendent of Schools, Mr. George W. Solomon, outlined the boundaries of the district, which took in all those lands in Carlinville Township except 160 acres in the northwest corner, 5 1-2 sections in South Otter Townshipg ll sections in Bird Township, 4 sections in Polk Township, 18 sections in Brushy Mound Town- shipg 4 sections in Honey Point Township, 13 sections in Shaws Point Townshipg and 2 sections in Nilwood Township. What the people wanted to do was to make the dis- trict as 'large as possible, which would have a tendency to reduce the taxes. The 160 acres were left out in Carlinville Township at the suggestion of County Su- perintendent of Schools Solomon and R. C. Moore, a former superintendent. By so doing it could not be argued at some future time, if anyone wanted to attack the formation of the district, that it was a township high school. The petition was fathered by the Board of Educa- tion of District 79 of the City of Carlinville. When the petition was filed, the County Superintendent of Schools called an organized election, and the people voted on the possibilities as to whether a community high school district would be formed with boundaries as outlined before. The election was called in the early summer of 1919, and the proposition carried almost unan- imously. The next election held under the authority of the County Superintendent was to select five members for a board of education, and at that election W. L. Mounts, Peter lldack, C. Lumpkin, Charles R. Borough, and W. H. Behrens, were selected as the first high school board of education. lVIr. Mounts, who was afterwards elected president of the board, circulated the petition, calling for an election to form a new high school district, and he was very success- ful in getting citizens in every walk of life to sign the petition. After the district was formed, and the first Board of Education elected, the first meeting of the ,new Board was held September 4, 1919. At that meeting W. L. lVIounts was chosen president and C. J. Lump- kin, secretary. At the second meeting of the board, held September 24, 1919, O. H. Loehr, Treasurer of Carlinville Township, was elected Treasurer of the new Community High School District. The Hrst levy was 375,000 for educational and building purposes. Of course, at that time the new high school dis- trict had no grounds- or buildings, and at the second meeting of the board, a committee was appointed to meet with the members of the Board of Education of District No. 79 for the purpose of considering the proposition of taking over the building then used as a high school, now known as the Central School Building. The committee met with the City Board and appraised the value of the Central Building ,and other property. They agreed to pay as rent for the rooms used by the Community High School 352,000 per annum, pay-able monthly, and they were to pay four-hfths of the expenses of the Central Building. Until the time the new high school building was com- pleted then this building was used. At the same meeting the secretary read a list of sites that had been offered for the new community high school building. There were ten sites offered. and the citizens of the District voted on the selection of a site and other propositions relating to the con- struction of a new building on the 24th day of Jan- uary, 1920. At this election over 1,100 votes were cast, and while every site received more or less votes, most of the votes were centered on only two. The B. lVl. Burke site, where the building is now located, received 402 votes, and what is known as Cogan's Green received 381 votes, the other sites received all the way from 3 votes to 104. None of the sites received a majority of all votes cast, and it was then up to the members of the Board to make a selection. At a long drawn-out meeting, after taking a number of informal ballots, the Board finally unanimously voted in favor of the Burke site. Mr. Burke received for the ten acres of land where the high school is now located, the sum of 35l1,250. The Board voted a bond issue of SlS0,000 for the construction of the building. lt carried with it a mandate of the funds of the dis- trict. A Chicago Firm agreed to take the bonds, but owing to the conditions in the money market that developed in less than a year, the company refused to take the bonds. This delayed building construction for over a year. At the December meeting of the Board, in 1920, arrangements were made by which the three banks of Carlinville, the Banking House of C. H. C. Ander- son, the Carlinville National Bank, and the Farmers Sr Merchants State Bank, agreed to take the bonds. This action 'was approved by the Board and the banks paid out the money to the District as the construction of the building progressed. The next action to be taken was the letting of the contract for the construction of the building. On June 6, 1921, the contract was let to Jesse 1. Gidney, of East St. Louis for 9,316-fl-,030. The heating and ven- tilation was awarded to D. E. Sexton for S31,000, and the plumbing to a Peoria firm for 358556. Of course, all the construction started as soon as bonds were filed, and all the other ,legal necessary steps were taken, and the building was practically com- pleted and the ground graded for the opening of school in September, 1922. . .., si .. 1':j i, . . , , J., 'ef-0.1 zz w zz- is xx 4 In m Q' LJ: w., ' A A LAST FAREWELL l High school days, the best days ever, Now become our memories. Helping Words and winning faces Float on down time's endless seas. We have grown to love each trial- Cherish all we did anew- And the things we thought we hated We would live them over, too. All these things wonlt be forgotten- Our first dance and all our friends. Those who tried so hard to teach us Oft for us will live again. Thus with loving thoughts We part now Bid farewell, our school, to thee- To those glorious, youthful days here, But not to their memory. -Doris Siegel ENQUIRER m cARuNv1L.1.E: 1 -1 1, Km- 1 'f,Vme1.vy'f- :win i N ii iilifffii .X .3.
