Kaufman Studio . E RESERVATION This, our reservation, is where we spend four years learning our crafts before departing for the happy hunting grounds. On our camping ground are the gymnasium, administration building, football field, concrete tennis courts, track, practice field, soccer field, and softball field. Also the important farm shop and seed house of Chief Brome Grass and his adjoining parking lot are here. It is a privilege to receive an education in these surroundings. be HiCXitio i On the totem pole of honor we place the keepers of our reservation—the ones who are always around when we need help the most; the ones who stay here all night and keep the fires going, fix a jammed locker, clean off chewing gum. refinish the desks with some initials. B. B. and L. P.. J. W. and P.C.. R. G. and W. D.. C. H. and B. H. and many more, answering that ever buzzing bell, watering the teachers’ flowers during vacation, furnishing keys to forgetful teachers, scrubbing marks off the gym floor, and removing the Spangles after a dance. Mellie Watts, after twenty-six years of service, has never seen a year when so many complaints have come from that coldblooded teacher in room 28. After the Warriors come home off the warpath. Slim Hoyt is always cheerfully awaiting the result of the game. Slim, second in length of service with twenty-three years to his credit, is quite a tradition around the gym. One can tell what time it is very closely by knowing in what part of the building Mr. Fasig is. He works just with the clock. Since he has been doing it for thirteen years, is it any wonder? They are the ones who keep our grounds in good condition and beautify our reservation. To these men who have served so faithfully these many moons—we. the class of 1944, dedicate our Flame.

It is the Peace Council which has made our school lead the field in a variety of subjects, standard of teaching training required, amount of extra activity offered, and the equipment provided. There are seven members of the Peace Council, and each is elected for the term of three years, except the President, who retires every year. The officers of the Peace Council for the year of 1943-1944 are as follows: President. Dr. Boyd: Secretary, C. A. Williams. The other members are Ronald Elliott. Carl Carothers, Marion Partlow. J. W. Smith, and Walter Van Dyke. The Chief Your school has at its head a Chief who works in cooperation with the Board of Education, the faculty, and the Student Council to make the high school possible for you. You will find the Chief. Mr. Runyon, our principal, meeting once a month with the Peace Council to discuss the procedure of the year. Mr. Runyon has a very high education. He went to Carthage College at Carthage. Illinois, for his first three years of college and then finished his A.B. degree at the University of Illinois. Since then he has also received an M.A. degree. He is now working for his Doctor's Degree. Mr. Runyon's duty here in the high school is to give you a better school of which you can always be proud. We feel that he has been successful in doing just that. The 1944 f lame IN THE WIGWAM During the leisure hours of the day, we gather in the meeting place of the wigwam to study, gossip, tell jokes, and wait for the bell to ring. Its double seats are made to order for our gruesome twosomes. Look further, and see our tribe. 7 he 1944 lame 9 Officers and Sponsors President Lee Markwell Vice-President Jim Goble Secretary Norma Daughhetef. T reasurer Phyllis Lewis Sponsors Mr. Tedrick Miss Short Miss Whitlock the M u+tte i4, The class of 1944 will graduate this June leaving behind them their books anc g ieir Alma Mater to take up new fields of learning. They will cast aside the books and receive rpeir teaching from life. The seniors entered high school in September of 1940 on their second voyage toward gaining an education. With one hundred and four members in the class, the forty-four graduates started out to bring new laurels to their school. Since then many have excelled in music, sports, and other chosen fields. During the last four years the class has gradually shrunk until about 63 will graduate. Many of these absent members are serving their country in Uncle Sam's Army, Navy, or Air Corps. This class has been distinguished by having the same president all four years. The “four-termer has been Lee Markwell. Members of the class have chosen their fellow classmates to rule them. The following have served as vice-presidents in turn: Jim Goble, Carl Collins, and Jim Goble. Jim Goble was also chosen Student Council president. Mary Daniel, Imogene Robinson. Martha Prince, and Phyllis Lewis have shown their abilities as treasurers. Having Virginia Austin, Phyllis Lewis, and Norma Daughhetee as secretaries further enhanced the chances of a succeeding class. Even not being able to get certain materials, they proved a successful banquet could be given by providing an abundance of food and clever decorations at the annual junior and senior banquet. The expenses of this were partially paid from the proceeds of their junior class play. This too had proven to be a hit! Now that the seniors realize that this is the last year of their high school life, they are speeding up their activities and thus accomplishing much more. All are trying to add a few more memories to their collection. One thing they will have to look back upon is the 1 944 homecoming with their talented classmate, Phyllis Lewis, as queen. During the other three homecomings, the beauties of the class acted as attendants to the queen. As we look back on this class, traveling with it through the four years, we can easily see it has been an exceptionally energetic class. All members seemed to work toward one thing, success. In almost everything, they have had the good fortune to come out on top. The seniors have changed from a large group of boys and girls to young men and women equipped to take their places outside of school. As the class of 1944 leaves these buildings, they will take their memories with them. .As they leave us behind, let us too remember them as our friends and the class of 1944. 10 The 1944 Flame 1 1 ) 1 ) ] ' I ] HUNTERS LESLIE BLACK Band 1, 2, 3, 4: F.

PIGSKIN WARRIORS The Pigskin Warriors of Casey High presented Coaches Brady and Tedrick with a very successful season. They lost to only one team, this being the Wabash Valley and Eastern Illinois Champions, Robinson. High scores and victories were piled up against Charleston Teachers College High. Oblong, Palestine, Marshall. Paris. Charleston, and Martinsville, giving them a season’s record of seven victories and one defeat. When the annual pigskin banquet rolled around. John Cramer was chosen winner of the Harris Trophy; the Most Valuable Played Award was presented to Lee Markwell: and Don Elliott received the honor of being next year's captain. The team of 44 will miss the playing of seven seniors; namely. Captain Jim Sharp. John Cramer. Chester Downey. Lee Markwell. Lee Ulrey. Leon Owens and Jesse Tharp: but the rest of the squad will give Coaches Brady and Tedrick a Casey nucleus of another team of which Casey will be proud. SCORES 21 T.

For this reason, they had only one match, that being with Teutopolis. The “Racketeers” did, however, compete in the District Meet and managed to rack up a few points. The squad consisted of many more than are in the picture, but the picture includes, (right to left) Howard Snodgrass. Kent Morgan. Jim Goble, and Pat Fitzgerald. Competing in the Paris Relays, the Eastern Illinois Meet, the Wabash Valley and the District, besides several meets with other schools, the Fleetfoot Warriors have given a good account of themselves.

The tom-toms, in reality drums, together with the other musical instruments constitute a very fine band under the direction of J. O. Hawkins.

Clad in their blue and gold uniforms, the band was a stirring sight as they marched precisely down the gridiron or when on parade downtown. Leading the marching band this year was majorette. Eileen Kusterman. Probably the high spot of the concert band’s season was its participation in the mass band concert at the Music Festival on March 31. At this festival, bands from Martinsville. Greenup. Kansas. Marshall, and Casey united to form one mass band of over 200 members. Another high point was the music department s Christmas concert. CTHS’s maestro is J. O. Hawkins, whose tireless effort has given Casey the band that it has. WUI0h « � . First row. left to right—Hazel Lowe. Ellen Callahan. Phyllis Cooper. Betty MumforJ. Viola Grisamore.
