W. ,wily CLASS HISTORY M :.,L In the fall of 1944, we entered C. T. H. S. as freshmen, 173 strong. This was one of the largest freshman classes ever to enroll here, we took up well over half of the seats in the assembly hall. At first we were a little timid, but we soon be- came accustomed to our classes, duties and teachers. Our .freshman officers were: Tom Pollard, president, Sue Mann, vice-president, Barbara Winter, secretary-treas- urer. Our class was very well represented in band and choir as well as on the ath- letic field and in all the other activities. The following year our number had dwindled to 119. We felt a little more at home sitting closer to the windows, and did we make those freshmen bow down! We elected for our officers that year, Bob Winter, presidentg Emma Lee Arm- strong, vice-presidentg and Frances Winter, secretary-treasurer. As before, we were Well represented in all the organizations and activities of the school. Well, time marches on! Here we are Juniors. We began this year with an enrollment of 105, and it has been a busy year for every one of the 105. In addition to all of our studies and our participation in organizations and extra curricular activities, we had to raise money for the J unior-Senior banquet and prom. - This year we chose to lead us, Dick Cochran as president, Bill Collard as vice- president, Donna Land as secretary, and Mary Lue Cross as treasurer. We soon started our money making campaign. The first thing we did was to break all past school records in magazine sales. Our sales amounted to about iE1,300.00. The next undertaking was the Junior Play. Under the careful direction of Miss Stanley the play was a tremendous success. We also had the concessions at the football games which helped out greatly with our finances. We are all looking forward to our prom and banquet. May it be the best one yet! These three years have been happy, busy ones, but we are all looking forward to our senior year as being the best of the four.

T. H. S. By November we felt capable of electing competent class officers. A meeting was held and Wilbert Bratton was elected president, Robyle Williams, vice-president, and Wilma Smith, secretary-treasurer. With these officers as our leaders, we feel that we accomplished many things during our freshman year. By August 28, 1946, our class, diminished to 112, became sophomores. Sev- eral of our classmates are real athletes and have been given letters and various other awards for their achievements. Many of our class are talented in music and are members of the band and choir. We are also fortunate in having a number of fellow students in F. F. A. and F. H. A. In September we held a class meeting and organized the class. Our officers for this year are Bob Smith, president, who has served us faithfully, Phyllis And- erson, vice-president, and Joan Hall, secretary-treasurer. We are hopefully expecting and looking forward to our junior year's being filled with new and thrilling activities.

T. H. S. on August 18, 1946. There were 132 of usg 85 boys and 47 girls. It took some time for us to become completely established and acquainted with our classmates. By the last of September, however, we felt that we could elect our class officers. Jim Moore was elected president, Martin Smith, vice-presi- dent, and Clinton fBudJ Berger, secretary-treasurer. With these officers as lead- ers, the class carried out their duties in perfect harmony and understanding. At the close of the year, the future sophomore class feel that they have accom- plished much in their first year 'of high school, and they are looking forward to the time when they will return.

However, despite all disadvantages, the Bulldogs fought hard throughout the contest, and ended the game on the Benton five yard line. The experience derived from this game did much toward toughening the team for the rest of the season, September 212-Carmi Sweeps LAWRENCEVILLE Off Their Feet, 19-0 CT ere.J Carmi's was a vastly improved team when it met the Lawrenceville Indians in the second game of the season. Go-ne were the rough spots, and we were clicking in all departments. Of thirteen passes attempted, ten were completed for a total gain of 150 yards. Bulldog end runs gained time after time behind some of the best blocking pro- duced all season. Our line was working well, opening good holes on offense and holding strongly on defenseg the Indians' deepest penetration was to our 6 yard line. We were pleasedlfvith this grand showing by our Bulldogs against as well rated a team as Law- rencevl e. September 27-Carmi Fells JOHNSTON CITY, 18-0 fHereJ Continuing their winning streak, Carmi toppled the Johnston City Indians 18 to 0 in the first home game of the season. The Bulldogs maintained the same offense that had paid off the week before as passes and end runs, mixed with line smashes, kept the Indians guessing throughout the game. But it was the Carmi aerial attack which clinched the game, as the Bulldogs completed one touchdown pass in the first quarter and two in the fourth for their three tallies. - Page Thirty-two October 4-Carmi Jolts MT. VERNON But Loses 34-21 fHerej Although unable to beat Mt. Vernon, Carmi certainly gave the powerful Rams the scare of their lives. Leading 21-'7 at one point during the second quarter, the Bull- dogs turned in one of their most impressive performances of the season. However, Mt. Vernon's weight and reserve strength were too much. Tying the score 21-21 at the l1alf,.thg4-lgaims went on to score two more touchdowns in the third and fourth quarters o win . October 11-Carmi Ties METROPOLIS, 7-7 CThereJ The Bulldogs were taken completely by surprise by a battling Metropolis team which held them to a 7 to 7 draw. Both teams scored in the first quarter, while in the remaining three periods each team threatened, but neither was able to push the pigskin across. Penalties and fumbles hounded Carmi throughout the game, breaking up its offensive, and the Bulldogs were unable to get another scoring drive started. October 18-HARRISBURG Defeats Carmi, lfl-7 tHereJ One of the largest crowds in C'armi's football history was on hand for the Home- coming game to see the Carmi Bulldogs battle the Harrisburg Bulldogs, C. T. H. S. put up a tough scrap against their weightier rivals, dominating the first half, and lead- ing 7-6 at the beginning of the third quarter. During the first period another drive nearly resulting in a Carmi touchdown was stalled on the Harrisburg one yard line. However, in the second half, Harrisburg came roaring back, pushing across two more touchdowns and an extra point. Carmi was unable to get its attack rolling againg so Harrisburg won 19-7. October 25-FAIRFIELD Upsets Carmi, 21-18 tThereJ Fairfield looked to be an easy target for the Bul1dog's seventh game. Starting out fast, we scored within a few minutes of the first quarter. Then Fairfield got hot, and before the half had ended the Mules had scored two touchdowns and made their extra points to make the score read 21 to 6. Carmi staged a desperate and thrilling rally. In just six plays they scored two touchdowns to make the score 21-18. With time run- ning out, the Bulldogs tried to tally again, but the Mules held, wirming the game. November 1-Rain and FLORA Down Carmi, 41-O fHereJ Rain, mud, and F1ora's Wolves combined to give the Bulldogs their worst defeat of the season. A steady downpour throughout the game turned the field into a sea of mud where players washed their hands in puddles on the field. Carmi's usual style of play was rendered ineffective, as passes were difficult and end runs dangerous. F1ora's line battering tactics proved to be too much for Carmi, and the Bulldogs lost 41-0. November 8-Carmi Defeats ELDORADO tThereJ Carmi's defeat of Eldorado was its third victory of the season, and probably its most exciting. Trailing 7 to 0 at the end of the first half, the Bulldogs staged a thrilling rally, scoring two touchdowns in the third quarter, and stopping a hard hitting Eagle drive on their own ten yard line in the fourth period. The first Carmi score came on a long end sweep from the center of the field. The second tally climaxed a seventy yard drive from the Carmi 30. Throughout the second half the Bulldogs played a smooth game, blocking well, and showing much of the sparkle of earlier games, November 15-Carmi Loses to WEST FRANKFORT, 7-0 QHereD Carmi lost its last game of the season to the West Frankfort Red Birds, 7 to 0. The Bulldogs played a great game as they held the South Six Champions scoreless for three quarters before they were finally able to score in the fou1'th period. Carmi's line held time and again, rocking West Frankfort -back on its heels, and keeping the Red Birds from scoring. Late in the fourth period the Bulldogs threatened when a long end run put them within scoring range on the West Frankfort 25. However, Carmi was unable to score, and West Frankfort wo-n 7-0.

CARMEL 23-36 A BASKETBALL l 946-47 Here's hailing one of the most determined group of Bulldogs in many years. Carmi started the year with a new coach, Mr. Vaughn Armer, and with inflated hopes for this year's team. Starting practice early in the year, the squad had a lot of difficulty in changing from one style of play to another, but they clung tenaciously to the desire to play and to win. Although they suffered several defeats during the season, the team always came back with a better game than before. At the end of the first semester the Bulldogs had further cause to lose faith with the loss of two of the first five in George and Andy Mitchell, yet with Carmi Bennett and Earl Smith, who became eligible at the end of the first semester, the determined Bulldogs upset the powerful Benton quintet and gained revenge on Harrisburg. The last game of the reg- ular season well illustrated how Coach Armer had overcome the inconsistency of the boys' playing ability, as only Tom Pollard and Bill Collard played in every game, the lack of height in his players, and numerous other factors. In this game the Bulldogs bowed to the Lawrenceville Indians in an overtime, but Lawrenceville had been rated in the first fifteen in the state most of the playing season. As there are only two seniors on the squad this year, here's believing that one of Carmi's great- est teams will be turned out next year, Page Thirty-seven I , J BASKETBALL SQUAD Seated, left to right, Norris, Manager, E.

The marching band played for almost all the home football games, the highlight of which was the War Memorial dedication on November 21. For their part in the ceremony the band formed a large cross, with a helmet hanging on one bar, and played Thanksgiving Fantasy while the poem, In Flander's Field, was read over the public address system. The band, to take part in the homecoming football game at Eastern Illinois State Teachers' College at Charleston, chartered two buse-s and made an all day trip there. They took part in the parade in the morning and later in the mass band formation before the homecoming game. After the ganrecfhere was a dance for the band members only at which everyone had a chance to get acquam e . The band marched in the Corn Day parade at Carmi, and the Carmi Cats, a small swing orchestra under the direction of Mr. Fick entered the amateur contest. They got first prize at both the morning and evening sessions. The Cats have played for many social affairs, includ- ing the formal Christmas Day dance of the young people home from college, and some of the proms of the cities around us. They contribute all their funds to the high school music depart- ment. The members of the orchestra are: Richard Anderson, Neil Frank in, Phyllis Anderson, Marilyn Renshaw, Bob Neeley, Carl Hill, Gle-n Schauberber, Dick Cochran, Luella King, Larry Kisner, Sam Barker, Bob Smith, Albert Schoemann, and Phyllis Leathers. Another group within the band is the Pepper-Uppers, still under Mr. Fick's direction. They are a group of boys who pllaiy for some of the home games, some of the out-of-town games, and most of the pep sessions. e members are: Carl Hill, Glen Schauberger, Albert Schoemann, David Sutherland, Charles Bruder, Sam Barker, Neil Franklin, Richard Anderson, and Bob Smith. On January 25, 1947, the Carmi Township High School ,Music Department gave its annual car- nival which was a greater success this year than any other as far as the proceeds were concerned. The band is now operating under a military system. The members get their rank from their position in their section, and their chevrons are sewed on each sleeve of their uniforms. The officers of the band have a rank of Staff Sergeant, the Drill Sergeant is a Technical Sergeant, and the Student Director, who at this time has not yet been chosen, will be a Master Sergeant and the top ranking officer of the organization. A band clinic was held in Carmi on February 20, the bands of Harrisburg, Ridgway, Clay City, Albion, Eldorado, Fairfield, and Carmi participating. There were mass band and sectional rehearsals in the morning and afternoon, a band mixer dance late in the afternoon, and the Clinic Festival that night. All 314 students attending the clinic played in the concert. The guest con- ductors were: Dr. Rudolph Anfinson, Director of Bands, Eastern Illinois State Teachers' College, Mr. Theodore Paschadag, President of Illinois Music Educators Association, and Mr. R. W. Cartier, of the Carmi Chamber of Commerce. The clinic was a great success and we hope to make it an annual affair in Carmi. On May 8, the band participated in the Rotary District Convention held in Carmi, Twenty bands took part. After the parade and mass band formation all the bands were invited to a Southern Barbecue at the fair grounds in Carmi. The District Contest was held at Benton this year March 28f29. Some solos and mixed groups from the Carmi band attended. The officers of the C. T. H. S. band are: Albert Schoemann - .................... - ........ - ............. --.. -. .........

In fact, it is the first great thing of this sort that the choir has ever given. We also had some outstanding soloists: Miss Hope Bixenstine, soprano, from Anderson, Ind., Mrs. Clarence Rice, alto, and Mr. James Robert Endicott, tenor, from Carmi, and Mr. Ray Turn- quist, bass, from Chicago, Ill. The understudies of the soloists were Miss Robilee McCa1lister, Miss Phyllis Leathers, Miss Jo Croghan, and Mr. R. G. Fick, The Messiah was given Dec. 22, 1946 at the Methodist Church. The following Sunday the choir sang the Messiah at Norris City. Mr. Fick sang in place of Mr. Turnquist, Miss Phyllis Leathers and Miss Robilee McCal1ister sang a part of Miss Bixenstine's solo as she was unable to sing. The second presentation of the choir was The Crucifixionf' given on Good Friday. The choir assisted in presenting the Carnival sponsored by the music department on Jan- uary 25, 1947. There was much accomplished in giving it, because more profit was made this year than any year before. The candidates for queen of the four classes were: Marilyn Renshaw, Betty Forrester, Eliza Pyle, and Maxine Niekamp. Maxine was chosen queen. The choir was divided into groups: girls' choir, boys' choir, and mixed choir by our new director, Mr. R. G. Fick. All of the groups sang at the Kiwanis Institute one Thursday, and various trios sang for town functions. , A District Contest was given on March 28-29 at Benton with many schools participating. The choir sang several numbers. Starting this year members of the choir are given awards for their various accomplishments.

Page Fifty-two STUDENT COUNCIL By Tommy Pollard For the past several years, the Carmi Township High School has wanted a student council. It was decided, by majority vote, to elect t ree students from each class. As a result of the election the seniors were represented by Richard Anderson, Neil Franklin and Mary Lou Shaver, the juniors, by Bob Winter, Tom Pollard, and Bar- bara Wintcrg the sophomores, by Phyllis Anderson, Lloyd Bitzer, and Bob Smithg and the freshmen, by Stan Cooper, Dona Schumaker and Jim Moore. When Jim left school, Glen Stallings was elected to succeed him. At the first meeting, the officers were elected. They were Richard Anderson, president, Tom Pollard, vice-presidentg Mary Lou Shaver, secretaryg and Bob Winter, treasurer. From the very first, the student council was a very active body. A good consti- tution was drawn up and approved after many alterations and much discussion. The student council was then ready for action. The first major enterprise of the council was the sponsoring of a school paper. Showing smooth co-ordination and business ability the paper was soon being produced and paid for by the council, Next, the council began to arrange assembly programs once a month, and even gave a panel discussion in front of the assembly in March. These programs were the result of much planning and work by the program committee. The council also took care of all dates for dances and other activities to be held at the high school. Rules were made that all of these dates would have to be approved by the council at least three weeks before the happening of the event. Always striving to improve the work of the Council, the following members and sponsors were sent to Belleville for a district meeting: Dona Schumaker, Mary Lou Shaver, Tom Pollard, Mr. Warner Greenlee, and Mrs. Delmar Lampp. They also sent representatives to the state meeting, which was held in Chicago in March. These rep- resentatives were Phyllis Anderson, Tom Pollard, Richard Anderson and Miss Beatrice Dean. In order to gather information from other student councils and to become acquaint- ed, the council held a get-to-gether for the White County councils in April. The advis- ors were Mr. Warner Greenlee, Mrs. Nora Lampp, and Mr. John Cralley. Miss Beatrice Dean was sponsor. CARMI SCIENCE CLUB By Sue Mann When school opened last fall, the Carmi Science Club also began its course of action with the aims of the members to increase their knowledge of science, to under- stand the importance of science in their lives and to learn to perfect their skills in science. The members of the club, being very active throughout the year, held meetings the first Thursday of each month. This year for the first time, two freshmen have proved themselves worthy of being interested enough in science to be in the Science Club. A well planned program was scheduled for each meeting, Motion pictures per- taining to science were scheduled, and interesting speeches were also given at the meetings. Certain members were assigned to report on the project which they had chosen as their Science Club project for the year. Many active members chose projects pertaining to photography, biology and chemistry. During fire prevention week some of the members held an assembly program pointing out ways to prevent fire and careless actions causing fire. Other members, in memory of Edison's birthday, worked omit the prloject of explaining the invention of the fuse, the electro-magnet and the p onograp . s The Science Club officers are: President, Tom Pollardg secretary, Sue Manny vice president, Doris Mauntel. Sponsoring the club are: Mr. Armer, Mr. Atkinson and I1gr.hC1gal:ley.1 Mr. Flake was a sponsor until he resigned from the Carmi Township lg c oo. Page Fifty three F. F. A. .The Future Farmers of America, or F. F. A. as it is commonly known, is the national organization of, by, and for boys studying vocational agriculture in public secondary schools under the provisions of the National Vocational Education Acts. As an integral part of the program of vocational education in agriculture in the public school system of America, the F. F. A. has become well known in recent years. No national student organization enjoys greater freedom of self-government under adult counsel and guidance than the Future Farmers of America. Organized in No- vember 1928, it has served to motivate and vitalize the systematic instruction offered to students of vocational agriculture, and to provide further training in farmer-citizenship. The F. F. A. is an intra-curricular activity having its origin and root in a def- inite part of the school curriculum-vocational agriculture. Among other things, mem- bers learn through active participation how to conduct and take part in a public meet- ing, to speak in publicg to buy and sell cooperativelyg to solve their own problemsg to finance themselves, and to assume civic responsibility. The foundation upon which the Future Farmers of America organization is built includes leadership and character development, sportsmanship, cooperation, service, thrift, scholarship, improved agriculture, organized citizenship, and patriotism. The F. F. A. is a non-profit, non-political, farm youth organization of voluntary membership, designed to take its place along with other agencies striving for the development off leadership, the building of a more permanent agricultural life, and improvement of country life. It constitutes one of the most efficient agricultural teaching devices that has been discovered up to the present time. The F. F. A. is 100'h American in its ideals and outlook and has no outside affiliations. There is no secrecy in connection with any of its activities, National headquarters of Future Farmers of America is located in the Agricultural Education Service, United States Office of Education, Federal Security Agency. National Con- ienticznskageil held annually in Kansas City, Missouri, at the time of the American Royal ives oc ow. The Future Farmers of America exists today because of a cooperative spirit and a desire on the part of farm boys, fourteen to twenty-one years of age, preparing for farming through vocational agriculture, to have a national organization of their own in which they may secure practical business experience, act as their own instructors, and enjoy the fellowship of one another. It is organized vocation on a farm youth level. Improved agriculture, better local communities, a more satisfying farm home life, and more efficient farmer citizens are emerging as a result of the boys' experiences. The Carmi Chapter of F. F. A. was organized in 1944, with twenty-five charter members. There are at present 419479 twenty-two members. This year as a community project, the Carmi Chapter is testing soil and also milk, free of charge to the farmers. Page Fifty-four FUTURE HOMEMAKERS OF AMERICA The Carmi Chapter of Section III is made up of twenty-two members. The chap- ter has an evening meeting once each month to discuss some phase of homemaking or ways to become more efficient and congenial homemakers. Once each week meetings are called at noon to discuss business matters of the club. Each year the chapter selects a theme and follows this idea through in the annual meetings and portrays it in a club scrap book. The Ideal Girl is the theme for this year. The girl is taken through life with all the training and influences which make her a successful leader, an ideal homemaker, and the type of citizen which would be an asset to the school, home, commimity and nation, leaving the world a better place by having lived in it. Among the highlights of the club, all members get to participate in things to make the club strong, financially and educationally, The hot dog stands on Corn Day and after the football games have put the club over financia ly. The F. H. A. Section Rally at Fairfield gave the girls new ideas for parliamentary procedure, pub- licizing the club, how to select delegates for club camp, and how individuals might help to improve the club in general. Each year a girl is sent to Bloomington, Illinois, to East Bay Camp for one week. This girl is selected from the sophomore or junior class. She must be thoroughly interested in F. H. A. work, be able to take part in discussion groups, be a good camper and willing to rough it , have a health certificate, and be alert enough to carry back new ideas for the local chapter. In case the delegate is unable to attend camp an alternate is ready to take her place and attend, assuming the same responsibilities. Each year a Chapter Mother is selected to represent the club, attend rallies, and go to camp, if chosen. This year Mrs. R. S. Mann, mother of Sue Mann, was voted our chapter mother. Her autobiography and picture were sent to Fairfield with those of other chapter mothers, and one was selected from the group to be Section III Chapter Mother. The mother chosen from all fourteen clubs in southern Illinois this year was Mrs, Morris from Ridgway, Illinois. May 10, the fourteen state scrap books from the F. H. A. chapters in Section III were judged at Carmi High School since Mary Alice Roser, a junior, and Mrs. Hughes served on the judging committee. The book chosen will be taken to camp and compared with twenty-four others from over the State of Illinois.

It was really something few of us will ever orget. October 18-Fick's Cats provided our homecoming dance with won- derful music all evening. The main event of the evening was the crowning of the football queen, Carol Sue Weigant. It was great fun mingling with the Harrisburg students who remained with us until late in the evening.

Page Fifty-seven DCWNTOWN COACHES CLUB During the football season a group of men interested in promoting athletics in C. T. H. S. formed a club which they named, The Downtown Coaches Club. This club meets every Wed- nesday night at 8:00 p. m. in Teen Town. They have about thirty active members. The club has helped in many ways to further athletics here in our school. A progressive attitude prevails among the members and next year more and bigger accomplishments will be in order. The school wishes to thank you, The Downtown Coaches Club, for your favors in the past and we pledge our support for improving our school as a whole. BASEBALL Spo-rts in general have taken another postwar boom and baseball cannot be denied in Carmi. Several men and boys are anxious to see the dust fly with a hook slide to second and to hear the crack of the bat. So the coaches and Mr. Harrington went to West Frankfort on February 23 and discussed baseball in Southern Illinois High Schools. They came back with a schedule. Carmi will play 18-20 league games this summer with the following schools: Benton, Harrisburg, John- ston City, DuQuoin, Mt. Vernon, West Frankfort, Centralia, and McLeansboro. Soon we will be hearing Al Barlick or an exact facsimile saying s-t-r-i-k-e. I NTRAMURAL The first three days of the school week were given over to the boys for their activity. On Thursday, boys and girls joined together to trip the light fantastic to some lively tunes of the school's new recording and P. A. system. On Friday the girls enjoyed basketball to its fullest. Of course, the Senior girls were the champs. During the fall and winter seasons students participated in softball and basketball as noon hour recreation. Softball interest seemed on the decline. This might be attributed to the fact that many of the softball players and fans had their fill of the sport during the summer months. A touch football league probably would have been more of a drawing card. All the interest that softball lacked was carried over to basketball. The teams were evenly matched and as we write this article the championship is still in doubt, Much credit goes to these boys who manage the following teams: Carl Hill -..- ..... - ............... ----... Hilltoppers Bill Moore ........ T- ........... ........ I ncreases George Simmons . ............... Per-Simmons Leon Whitlow ................................ Beads Paul Ward ......... ---.---.- .............. Ward-3 Sylvester Ackerman .................. Ack-Acks Wilfred Aldridge ----..,-..-- All-Ridges Laurence Leggett -..... Footettes TRACK Last fall several tons of cinders were added to the local track around the gridiron. This spring the lights are to be placed outside the track on the north side. This will give more room for our football field and place the lights so that we can have night track meets. Track has suffered in popularity because of the time that meets were held, namely in the afternoon, and that is when most people are working. This year we hope this will be remedied. Coach Armer will have about fifteen experienced boys around whom he will build the 1947 tgeam. Fog: the past few years Carmi has been proud of her track teams. This year we hope to e even ter.
