DEDICATION Symbolic of our deep appreciation for his kindly interest and cheerful service in our Annual and countless other school activities we, the Class of 1937 offer this, our Orange and Blue Review as a tribute to Mr. William Kibler. BOARD OF EDUCATION Board of Education A board meeting Is held the first Monday of each month to transact the business matters of Chatsworth Township High school. The duty of these men is to pass on all bills and other items of importance that confronts the faculty and student body. Their kind judgment has helped the school to progress greatly. The present building has been occupied since 1922 arc all of the boards of education during those years have been progressively minded. A first class commercial department has been installed. A well equipped manual arts department has given the boys a wider selection of subjects. The gymnasium has received much new equipment, and the present board is considering ways and means of introducing an agricultural and home economics department as most; other schools of the locality now maintain them.

Junior Class History In the year 1934, forty-seven unsophisticated freshmen entered the C. T. H. S. fold. Mr. Norton, the class advisor, helped this group organize with the following officers: Frank Garrity—President, Danny Kyburz Vice Presi- dent, and Ruth Ford—Secretary and Treasurer. They were initiated by the sophomore October 5, 1934. On October 26, they gave a return party. In September 1935 they returned as sophomores with a small amount of poise and dignity. There were thirty-eight in the class this year. With i.'.iss Mackey as the class advisor they elected the following officers: Frank Garrity-- President, Tommy Baldwin—Vice President, and Dorothy Monahan—Secretary and Treasurer. They initiated the freshmen with an Amateur Program, September 27, 1935. The Botany Class gave an Arbor Day program which included a short three act play—“Johnnie Appleseed . This cast included seven characters. In the fall of 1936 the juniors enrolled with thirty-one pupils with Miss Mackey and Miss Tibbetts as their class advisors. Throughout the year the juniors sold candy during the noon hours as well as at football and basketball games. The play, “Dollars to Doughnuts” which included ten characters, was given in the fall of 36. A donation of ten dollars was given to the hed Crest to aid the Flood Relief. In the spring of 37 they have the responsibility of giving the Junior-Senior banquet. Next fall they hope to return—should we say as dignified Seniors??? SOPHOMORE CLASS Back Row: J. Lawless, R.

Sophomore Class History In September 1935, thirty frightened freshmen, one of the smallest classes in the history of the school, entered C.T.H.S. They elected Joe McGuire, president; Glenn Rosenboom, vice-president; Marjorie Ribordy, secretary; and Raymond McEvoy, treasurer to be advised by Miss Stoutemyer. It took them a while to become accustomed to their new surroundings until September 27 when they were initiated by the sophomores. The party was in the form of an amateur night, and each freshman had to perform. Prizes were awarded to the best amateurs. The freshmen gave their return party October 11. During the year two more students joined the ranks increasing the number to thirty-two. When September of 1936 rolled around, there were twenty-nine in the sophomore class; three of the members having dropped out after their freshman year. This time the class elected Joe McGuire, president; Raymond McEvoy, vice-president; Marjorie Ribordy, secretary; and Arthur Sterrenberg, treasurer with Mr. Collins, their class advisor. On October 2, they initiated the freshmen using a new idea of having them dress in old clothes and walk down main street in the afternoon. This embarrassed the freshmen very much to the great delight of the sophomores. The regular initiation party was held that evening. The return party was given the sophomores October 16. In the two years that the sophomore class has been in C.T.H.S. they have taken a large part in school activities. Next year they hope to do even better than the two previous and here's hopin' they succeed. FRESHMEN CLASS Fourth Row: N. Marxmiller, 0. Deck, R. Wallrich, K. Hall, F. Endres, G. Hum- mel, W.

Tuesday, September 15 class officers were elected as follows: Leo Sneyd, President; Harriet Felt, Vice President; Neal Marxmiller, Secretary; and Mar-delle Gray, Treasurer. Mr. J. E.

ORANGE AND BLUE REVIEW This is the first year C. T. H. S. has put out an annual. The project was started with the second semester and has progressed rapidly since. The Seniors sponsored the annual, and all of the staff, except for the editors of the individual classes were picked from this group by the faculty. The name of the annual, The Orange and Blue Review was selected by a vote of the faculty, and student body in a contest entered by the majority ofstudenta The name chosen was submitted by Arlene Shafer and Mary Rita Kane. The annual is a senior project and each member of the staff is responsible for a particular section. He is open to suggestions of the faculty and underclassmen. The book is divided into four main sections: Administration-----Board, and Faculty; Classes---Student body: Activities----Extra curricular work: Feature—informal snapshots.

The committee system of organization is used, which means that every member of the club is a member of a committee. The catalogue committee prepares new books for circulation; the charging committee checks books out and in, returns them to the stacks, collects fines, helps students select books to read, and records statistics on the circulation of the books. The book repairing committee keep the books in repair; and the picture committee collects pictures that may be of interest and use to any department of the school, mounts them on cardboard, arranges them in a picture file, and keeps the assembly picture board supplied with timely pictures. The entire club meets one evening a month for business and entertainment, when each committee chairman reports in detail the exact amount of work his members have done, and the time they have used in doing it. Each committee has charge of an entertainment program during the year and the remainder of the hour is devoted to that. TATLER STAFF Third Row: Second Row: First Row: H. Finefield, M. F. Trunk, J. B.

Each afternoon is devoted to instrumental music instruction consisting of general rehearsals, sectional rehearsals and private lessons.

Then m expectedly the other daughter arrived with her boy-friend who was a European prince. She demanded the family maintain an extravagant style to impress the prince. The parents tried to play two games at once with very ridiculous results. A maiden aunt was pressed into service as a housekeeper and the local minister was disguised as a butler.

Football This is the first year in local history that the team has gone through an undefeated season and has won the Vermillion Valley football trophy. C.T.H.S. opened the season against Chenoa, defeating them by a score of 24-0. Farmer City and Fairbury, both heavier teams, were next to go under the orange and blue steamroller. With the four conference games remaining, Chatsworth had high hopes for a successful season. Cullom and Herscher were both defeated by aggressive second half drives. Saunemin, nThe Big Game , was next. C.T.H.S. went to Saunemin with their hearts set on winning. Saunemin was just as determined that they would be the victor. After the hardest fought and most thrilling game of the season, Chatsworth came home the victors by the slim score of 7-6. Forrest was the last victim of the season. Chatsworth had revenge in a 57-19 score because Forrest had recently done the same to us. FOOTBALL Standing: left to right: Bess, Sterrenberg, Wittier, Coach E. Collins. Front Row: left to right: L.

The team won a majority of its games, won the consolation trophy at the Cullom Holiday Tournament and won the V. V. tournament. The season’s record was good enough to exempt C. T. H.
