After spending a few weeks in acquainting ourselves w ith this new regime, we chose the following class officers: Leah Deverick. president; Donald Lippincott, vice president; and Robert Davis, secretary and treasurer. Miss Hooker was our advisor. In October wre bravely withstood the torturous treatment that the Seniors so unmercifully imposed upon us. At the end of the term, after having fully recuperated from the cruel treatment mentioned above, we royally entertained the Juniors at a picnic at Twin Lakes, Paris. When we returned in 1929. we were very dignified Sophomores. Although eleven of our members had fallen by the wayside, we still had the largest class. 'I bis year the following class officers wrere elected: Lois Chrysler, president; Evelyn Brookhart, vice president; and Lucille Moran, secretary and treasurer. Miss Hooker was retained as our advisor. During the football season we tied with the Seniors in the float contest before the Palestine game for second prize. We also assumed an active part in the Senior Stunt Show. Even then our keen native intelligence was apparent. W e had the greatest percentage of tjie students making the honor roll. We also were well represented in athletics. Robert Davis, Harold Ashley, Dean Rogers, and Lester Alier were the Sophomores who made the football team. Harold Ashley and Robert Davis played on the first team in basketball. In 1930. with the exception of a few, we were all hack and prepared for action. We, as Juniors, accomplished many things. Our class officers were: Evelyn Rrookhart, president; Clarence Sidwcll, vice president; and Geneva Funk, secretary and treasurer. The grand success of the season was the Junior Class play, “The Whole Town’s Talking.” The success of this play is due to Miss Ennis, who was the director, and to the hard work of the east. As in 1929. we were well represented in athletics, both in football and in basketball. The Junior girls received first place in the interclass volleyball tournament. Both the singles and doubles of tennis that represented C.T.H.S. were Juniors. We participated in the Senior Stunt Show. In order to earn legal tender, we sold candv in the main corridor at noon ami also at basketball and football games. Success came at last: We wrere Seniors! The officers were: Robert Davis, president; Donald Lippincott, vice president; and Merlic Gallatin, secretary and treasurer. Mr. Dickerson and Miss Armstrong were our advisors. The first event of importance was the Freshman initiation which was held in the form of a play party. Next, we had the Senior Stunt Show. In May, the Juniors showed their pleasant company manners by entertaining us at the Junior-Senior banquet. And then came graduation! It is with great sorrow that we leave the scene of so many pleasant memories. May the Juniors carry on the great work that we have so nobly done. 22 Class Will ’32 ■ We, the Seniors of Casey Township High School, being of unsound mind and having realized hy this time, that for a few of us, our time in High School is almost at an end do hereby draw up this, our last will and testament: To the Juniors we leave our first six rows on the east side of the assembly and our dignity anil poise as Seniors. To the Sophomores we leave the privilege of digging through the waste paper baskets and Senior desks for papers, notebooks, and other valuables discarded by the Seniors. To those unfortunate Freshmen, we leave our heartfelt sympathy because they will have to depend upon the Juniors to escort them to classes and do other little acts of kindness for them. The American Venus. Olive Owens leaves her attractions for the male sex to Dorothv Patrick. Cleda Purcell leaves her boisterous ways to Miriam Kinison.

Freshman Class History ■ Early in September ninety-three freshmen enrolled and immediately settled down to business by organizing the class. We elected our officers as follows: Wayne Foster, president; Edna Mills, vice president; Darrell Carper, secretary; Jane Alkire, treasurer. We began to make ourselves known by winning the prize for the cleverest stunt in the parade preceding the Casey-Olney game. On October 2, we were initiated at the all-school party and believe it or not we enjoyed ourselves, although our initiation proved to be an entertainment for the entire student body. All through the year we have been quite active in school affairs. We entered the stunt show but did not win any prize although our class sponsors. Miss Jeffrey and Mr. Daugherty were very faithful in coaching us. We bail many freshmen in the glee club who were in the operetta. Several of our boys went out for football. Wayne Ault gave us much honor by winning a position on the first team. Many boys also went out for basketball and several made the second team. Our class showed a great deal of musical talent this year and so we are well represented in the band and orchestra. We also have several members on the honor roll for the six week periods.

Volunteers were called from all classes hut especially from Juniors and Seniors because they were eligible for Quill and Scroll membership. Seventeen reported for service. This group has met each Monday and Tuesday the eighth hour to write all school notes. Although each person has been assigned to a definite “run” to “cover” each week, no regular staff officers have been elected. All School news is published in the Casey Banner Times in the Broadcaster section. 34 Lois Chrysler....... Arthur Miller....... Clarence Sidwell Margaret Fox........ Cyril Emrich........

Rome Economics Club ■ The Home Economics Club was organized in 1927. Since then the membership has averaged seventy-five. In 1928 and 1931, the club sponsored Courtesy Weeks which were very successful in promoting courtesy in the school. In 1930. a tea was given to the girls of the eighth grade. The club has held several meetings this year at one of which the following officers were elected: Marian Orr. president; Evelyn Walters, vice president; Ruth Miller, secretary; and Marv Funk, treasurer. Much of our success is due to these officers. 37 Fir t ro ir: Chlorran Krimlfnlnirf, Margaret McDaniel, Maurine Stewart, Marjorie Weaver, Algene Foeler.

This chorus is composed of twenty girls selected from the combined chorus sections which meet twice a week during the first semester of the year. During the spring months preceding the contest, these members of the contest are required to rehearse individually as well as with the club. For several years the Casey Girls’ Chorus lias won first in the County meet and placed high in the FI. i. League. Our goal is to take the cup for first place in the F . 1. League this year. This year's chorus, although composed of many new members promises to he one of the best we have had. The required number for girls’ chorus is a three part arrangement, “Daybreak, hv Harris. Along with this number tin chorus will sing “Jumpups,” arranged by Paul Bliss, which is a negro Spiritual full of rich chords and intricate harmony and should prove a fitting number to precede the required number in the contest. Margaret Brewer, although a Freshman has not only demonstrated her pianistic ability by winning the right to represent Casey in piano solo—hut has shown herself to he a worthy accompanist for the Glee clubs. We wish here to mention another organization, namely the Mixed Chorus. Last year was our first attempt with such a group and we were encouraged by winning first in the contest of the four schools in the county. This year we have a stronger group, especially on the bass ami tenor side of it, so we anticipate some good results from this group. The Mixed Chorus number is “Carry Me ’Lon,” by Stephan Foster. For the selected number we have chosen “On the Road to Mandalay,” by Speaks. 41 The “Belle of Bagdad” ■ One of the most delightful presentations of the year was that of the Operetta, The ‘'Belle of Bagdad. ’ This fine performance was given early in November to a large and appreciative audience. This production was under the direction of Miss Ennis for the speaking roles. Miss Stein for the dances, and Mr. Hawkins for the music. Those who saw this operetta will always remember the catchy music, the lively dances, the oriental atmosphere and clever plot throughout, with a great climax and impressive ending. Some seventy-five students had a part in this Operetta.

Hand has made notable progress this year, both in the size am! the type of music played. Last year for the first time the hand was entered in the Sectional Hand Contest at Bridgeport, competing against tin following Class B schools: Olney, Robinson, Ml. Carmel. Oblong, Bridgeport, Flora, and Lawrencevillc. This first attempt gave the hand fourth place beside the three first places out of four entries in the solo events. The instrumentation of the hand this year has been improved by the addition of two French horns, another flute, a bass clarinet, ami an alto clarinet. Such instrumentation makes possible the playing not only of marches and pep songs for athletic events hut also a high type of concert music. The hand members have shown their loyalty this season by playing at all the home football and basketball games, and also at every session of the County, District, and Sectional Tournaments. 43 Band Concert Program Presented April 1, 1932 March, “Invercargill” ...........................................

They come around with added interest and enthusiasm each year as evidenced by an increasing number of students taking part in these events. While some people decry contests we know that pupils do really work harder in preparation for them and are better musicians for having entered. Good soloists in all music events have actually received their stimulus and got their start through the contest work. Casey High School is one of four schools to compete in the Clark County Contest. This is held each year at Marshall preceding the Eastern Illinois League Meet which will he held at Charleston the same as last year. In these contests Casey has made a very creditable showing, especially in the County, last year winning first in both Girls and Mixed Chorus and Soprano Solo. This year we are hoping to make the very best of our fine talent and take our rightful place both in the County and League Music Meets. fhe hand will also enter the contest of the Southeastern Illinois District, which will he held at Olney some time in April. Last year we entered our high school hand for the first time, which made a very good showing. This year both a high school hand of 45 members and a grade ham! of 35 members will enter. This will be a great day to be remembered, and also in this April event we want to see Casey made proud of her hands. Some fine talent was displayed at our annual preliminary Literary-Music contest held April 8. There were four girls competing for first place in girls vocal solo, four hoys competing for first in hoys vocal and two for first in piano solo. The winners who will represent C.T.H.S. at Marshall in the County and at Charleston in the E. 1. League are: Girls Voeal............................... Leah Deverick Boys Vocal...............................John Brewer, Jr. Piano.............................

Alto Saxophone Snare Drum Trombone Gerald Todd Darrell Carper ....Vincent Davis Margaret Brewer Mack Hhoads Durward W liitton Debate ■ The question for debate for this year is. Resolved: That the Several States Should Enact Legislature Providing for Compulsory I neniploynient Insurance. As a final view on 1932’s debate season, Casey tied with Robinson for fourth place. However the Casey team was not given the preference over the Robinson crew whom they defeated. Robinson was given fourth place not because their team was better, hut because they had more points chalked down on their side. Paris won first place with a straight line of victories. Greenup came second, with Hutsonville taking third and as said Robinson was given the preference over Casey. Of th ese teams it seems easily conceivable that Paris had the most capable one, hut Casey came very close in overthrowing the team that won one hundred per cent. The teams are under the direction of Miss Ennis. Those representing Casey High School this year are as follows: A ffirmativp Evelyn Brook hart Dale Whitney Ruth Miller Negative Margaret Fox Marjorie Weaver Cyril Enirich Alternate: Clarence Sidwell Alternate: Browne Forrester 46 The “Ag” Club ® The local chapter of the Future Farmers of America fills the place of the Casey Agricultural Club.

Coarli Beryeson History of Casey’s All Wabash Valley Football Team ■ When Casey High School launcher] its ship for the nine months voyage in the fall of 31 and spring of 32 there was one prospect that seemed to favor and make this voyage more successful. That prospect was the strength on the gridiron. The opening of an early season and hard immediate work gave the football squad a sprinting send-off. About fifty-three hoys responded to Coach Bergeson's call for material. Most of this material was experienced. However, those who were not acquainted with this game soon became interested and readily improved. After a change in the line-up, following the opening game, Casey's team worked harder, showing more offensive skill than has been displayed for years. The overpowering strength that Newton met ended in a one-sided score of 51 to 0, ami gave to the Casey team the most essential technique, that of a powerful offense. Throughout the season of nine battles Casey’s defense never weakened and because of offensive improvement were able to carry off the honors of the abash alley Championship and Eastern Illinois League. The Purple and Gobi Huskies won every game except the first, that being a tie with Olney. Coaches Bergeson and Bergstrom certainly built up a powerful football machine on the gridiron for Casey High School in the season of 31. 50 Scores of Casev’s Games CASEY 0 OLNEY 0 ■ As a poor introduction of an All-Valley team, the Casey gridiron machine played Gluey to a scoreless tie. On September 19, in I he terrific heat of the mid-afternoon, the team, lacking any offensive punch, was unable to score. This was a newly scheduled game played on I he home field. CASEY 7 CHARLESTON HIGH 6 Meeting another newly scheduled team on September 26, Casey came through, winning by the place kick following the lone touchdown for the Purple and Gold. In this game Charleston scored the only counter chalked up against the record of the nine consecutive games. The powerful offense of the opposing team was hard to withstand, but the Purple and Gold never wavered. Their unbreakable defense saved the day for old Casey High. CASEY 1 ROBINSON 0 The third victory was won on October 3, but was not revealed until some time later, Robinson losing to Casey on account of playing an ineligible participant. Casey came home disappointed, after playing their second scoreless tie. CASEY 51 NEWTON 0 On October 10, Casey’s “Huskies” journeyed to Newton, after New ton bad played Robinson to a scoreless tie. The boys were anxious and confident, yet cautious, as they kicked off to the huge Newton team. After displaying a wonderful offense throughout the game, and by several blocked kicks, the Casey team left the field highly victorious and with a feeling of a new offensive punch. CASEY 32 PALESTINE 0 Probably in a feeling of over-confidence ami assurance Casey entered into this contest but retaining tbeir defensive strength and with a flash of sudden offense the team was able to win by 32 to 0. CASEY 13 WILEY 0 A beautiful game, and probably one of the best-played of the season, was the battle against the W iley “Red Streaks” on the home field, October 24. By an incessant offensive punch and never-ending defensive force the Purple ami Gold chalked up the filth victory on their way to the Wabash Valley Championship. CASEY 13 CHARLESTON T. C. 0 On October 31, the Purple and Gold “Huskies” clashed with Charleston T. C. on the opposing team's field. Coach Bergeson was afraid of a let-down after the W iley victory and it came at Charleston. Although there is no indication in the score, the game was exceedingly close. 51 CASEY 19 MARTINSVILLE 0 Ready to defeat a team that Casey had not beaten in four years, the Purple and Gold warriors put forth a strong offense to come out victorious, even more than the score indicates. A number of times Casey had the pigskin on the five-yard line, but because of penalties and continuous fumbling of the hackfield they were nearly unable to score. However, in the end. they had that old nineteen points chalked up to their opponents zero mark. CASEY 24 MARSHALL 0 In the final game of the best season that Casey has had for years the Purple and Gold met the Marshall “Lions” in not only just a football game but in a battle that was to decide whether or not Casey should win the Wabash Valley Championship. Thanksgiving morning was fairly clear yet brisk and slightly cold. Towards noon soft white flakes of snow were cutting the air in the annual Thanksgiving Day flurries. When the whistle sounded for the game a soft blanket of melting snow covered the field, making an aerial attack impossible. At the half the Purple and Gobi had chalked up only six points, hut opened the final half with a desperate, powerful attack. Late in the game the snow and mud began to freeze, making the day very disagreeable for the players, as well as for the spectators. When the final gun bail spoken in the frosty air, Casey had scored four touchdowns, and had held their opponents scoreless. Thus, Casey concluded a wonderful season on the gridiron, being scored on only once, and that in the Charleston game by a blocked punt which might have been avoided. Any team with a powerful offense and an unbreakable, impenetrable defense cannot he beaten. Such is what tin victorious Casey “Huskies” possessed, a rare combination. 52 Athletic Banquet ■ The Athletic Banquet, honoring those who had worked hard, trained hard, and fought for Old Casey, making an All-Valley year possible, was held on Wednesday, December 18, 1931. The main speaker for this annual occurrence was “Tug Wilson, Director of Athletics at Northwestern. Mr. Wilson was pleased with the opportunity of complimenting the boys on their success on the gridiron, being able to complete a season without once falling into the abyss of defeat. He gave to the team his hopes that those undefeated players of the gridiron should go through the game of life without meeting defeat, to be victorious on the football field and victorious in life, but if defeat should ever come, take it just as sportsmanlike as they had taken victory. The Harris Trophy was jointly awarded to Cyril E. Emrich and Robert Davis. This trophy is presented every year to the boy or boys who have proved themselves to be the highest in sportsmanship, an excellent scholar, and one that our school and community can be proud to own. The Wabash Valley Trophy was awarded to the Casey warriors and to the coaches. Dean Rogers and Robert Davis were placed on the All-Wabash Valley football team. The trophy shield, given to the most valuable player, was awarded to Captain Robert Davis. Coach Bergstrom presented football letters to the following boys: Seniors: Robert Davis, Cyril Emrich, Dean Rogers, Loren Gardner, Lester Alier, John Jenuine, Forrest Mills, and Arthur Miller. Juniors: Harley Biggs, Audra Repp, Floyd Collins, Vern Emrich, and Howard Huddleston. Sophomores: Ronald Jones.

As we drew near unto the city I, myself, became quite witty, I said, “You see that beacon light Is calling us to church tonight.” Then as we drew up to the place. We found an excellent parking space. So from the car we did descend And took hold of each others hand. But as we stood there in a mass, Waiting for tw'o cars to pass. Almost as quick as lightning flash We beheld a terrible crash. Then without a warning notice, Two big lights were turned upon us. Not able to step right or back. We tvere right there in his tracks. Mother and Evelyn were dragged and thrown. And Evelyn's clothes were badly torn Mother received a terrible jolt. And she knew her leg was broke. We were rushed to Union Hospital, Where they worked with me a little. Mother’s leg was set very soon, Then they took us to our room. Now we lie in our white beds, With big pillows at our heads. And nurses rushing to and fro. Some with pills and some with hypo's. The joys of life have passed away. And in this hospital 1 must stay. Until the hones in my foot mend And for my father I can send.

This contest includes a local, district, state, and a national contest. In the local contest held at Casey, Dimple Speak won first place, which honor she continued to hold in the County contest. At the present time. Dimple's essay, ’’George Washington, the Friend. has heen sent to tin district contest where we trust she will keep her fine record intact. George Washington, the Friend No figure in the glamorous history of America possessed the characteristics, so well combined that go to make a good friend, as did tin Father of Our Country. Washington s simplicity of manner, honesty, generous good nature, unshaken courage, bravery, and practical good sense, combined with a sound judgment, made him beloved and valued as a friend. Emerson once said, ‘lf you want a friend, be one. and Washington certainly filled this requirement. During his early life, while working among the backwoodsmen, he became good friends with many of those hardy people. This was displayed by the quick response of those rough fighters whom Washington commanded. Although a man of many achievements and virtues himself, he was always ready and willing to recognize them in others. hen Lafayette so gallantly offered his aid to America, Washington quickly recognized not only his qualities as a soldier, but as a friend as well. Mutually drawn by the virtues and good qualities of each other, the two became fast friends. Washington evidently believed in the old maxim, “A friend in need is a friend indeed, for as soon as the news reached him that Lafayette was in prison during the uprising in France he tried to secure his release. Failing in this attempt to do anything but make the imprisonments a little easier to hear, the great man of affairs provided for the physical welfare of the champion of Liberty’s family. Somewhat later Lafayette’s son came to America and Washington did all in his power to aid the young Frenchman. Not only did Washington love his private friends hut he cherished a deep passionate love for humanity at large. Those worthy people in need always found Washington a friend ready with help and aid for their necessities. During the war, while the master served his country at great disadvantage to himself financially, charity was not lacking at Mount Vernon. While burdened almost to the breaking point with affairs of state. Washington thought of those hack home, who depended upon him when in need and wrote his manager a letter charging him to help tin poor with the products of the farm and setting aside a certain sum to be given to charity each year. From the earliest records we have. Washington was the friend of slaves and those under his care were treated royally, and consequently were loyal friends to their master. During all of his public services Washington was an 63 earnest advocate of anti-slavery and did all in his power to better conditions for those in bondage. All through Washington’s useful life it seemed as though all those whom he counted as his friends proved worthy of his trust. In the midst of the Revolutionary War a conspiracy was brewing against the commander-in-chief, all unknown to him. One of Washington’s trusted friends learned of it and informed him of it to his own discomfort. That is just another instance when Washington, the friend, was befriended. That Washington was the kind, thoughtful, and forgiving friend of the soldiers under his charge is fully portrayed by the fact that he forgave their disobedience as often as he could and was thoughtful of their needs. His forgiving spirit found ample room for exercise when Morgan fired at a company of British soldiers against the orders of his chief. Instead of punishing him. as he justly deserved, Washington forgave him and invited him to dine with him. Washington’s friendly feeling for his soldiers, besides being returned, was well rewarded. Each hardship of his worthy hand was shared by the chief and not a murmur was heard. Many were the pleas of the soldiers to their hrave chief to stay out of danger’s way; however, none of them were heeded. The tributes to the many deeds of Washington are numerous and varied, but none more prized than the simple statement made by Benjamin Franklin in his last will. Franklin says, “My fine crab-tree walking stick, with a gold head curiously wrought in the form of a cap of liberty, I give to my friend and the friend of mankind, George Washington. If it were a scepter, he has merited and would become it.” Dimple Speak. 69 Junior Class Play ■ The Junior Class play, “The Patsy,” by Barry Couriers, was presented January 29, before an appreciative and enthusiastic audience.

We are Seniors going our way. Going as many others go. On a trend of life we shall not know, But each is sure to lead the fray. Life is not a lone invariable routine Of monotony and infrequent variation, But one of study, fun, and occupation. Not a mere fantastic dream. The orifices of life, unbarred. Lie before us ’midst a thousand doors. Revealing golden slabs of tempting corridors. In preference to life’s orifice so scarred. Choose wisely ’fore you journey on. The dingy orifice of life is there, Concealing purest gold within its lair. Otherwise! Tempting gold, then all is gone. The storms of life are frequent. Prosperity looms, the day just seems To tower up as in our dreams. Then it comes, strikes, and leaves us bent. Though sleet and hail should batter In your aged roofs of hope and coveting. Rebuild a stronger tenure, while you sing Optimistically, as if nothing were the matter. Incessant rains shall wet life’s hill. Ascending will be hard, descending soft. But golden opportunities are shielded up aloft. So climb, life’s task you must fulfill. Life if you prefer may be a calendar. Each year ’tis torn and thrown away. Forgotten and degraded, gone to stay. But we shall live a vivid life, and not a blur. We are the Seniors of ’32. More shall follow, more pull through. And we are learning, not reform. But merely, how to face life’s storm. —Cyril Emrich. 75 NDIANA STATE TEACHERS COLLEGE r.Terre Haute VOUR school for licenses for Primary Intermediate. Rural and High School Teachers, Superintendents.
