But after SIX LESSONS FROM CAPTAIN I-IACK of the PINA- FORE the WAVES of the Girls' Chorus have ridden OVER THE WAVES through STORMY WEATHER to attain vocal ability equaling that of the VOLGA BOATMAN. Last year they Went SAILING up and down OLE MAN RIVER singing at Parent- Teachers' and Woman's Club meetings and even ROWED, ROWED, ROWED, THEIR BOAT across THE OCEAN BLUE to give a spring concert on THE BEAUTIFUL BLUE DANUBE. AND HERE THEY GO AGAIN! So it's ANCHORS AWEIGH with a Yo-oo-oo Hea-ee-ve I-Io! BOYS' GLEE CLUB Yo-ho-ho, a-singing We Will go. Under' the able guid- ance ot Miss Hack the sea-going salts of the Boys' Glee Club started out on another cruise. They cast anchor in port on December I8 and sang at the Chester High Open House. They are planning to give a spring program this year, after which they will dock and tie up the ship for the summer. GIRLS' ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION As the G.A.A. sets out on the voyage of IQ44, we look for clear sailing. Mrs. Iuergens is again at our helm and our crew is excellent. The Seniors, the old salts, have been with the old ship for four years. The underseamen are learning to be good seamen, and with good training in basketball, soft- ball, volleyball and tumbling, are becoming strong, healthy sailors. With a crew like this we shall come safely into port. Buck row: I E F t E X011 IDWI rvin, I. Iany, N. Auld, G. Barwell, S. Thoellce Hoffman, L, Loiink, B. Iuergens, I. Tucker.

The Yellowjackets weighed anchor and opened their gridiron season at Anna- Ionesboro. Displaying a running attack, Anna edged out the Yellowjackets, 14-13. Anna scored once in the first quarter and gained the extra point. Chester and Anna failed to score in the second period, ln the third both teams slashed forward on running attacks, gaining seven points apiece. Bob Davis, speedy left half, scored the marker for the Yellowjackets by a run around the left end. Anna was held in check during the fourth, but the fighting Yellowjackets surged forward for another touchdown which was made by Davis. The Chester boys failed to collect the extra marker, however, and they were trailing their oppon- ents by one point when the game ended. October 2, . . PINCKNEYVILLE-CHESTER. Fair Weather and good winds favored the Yellowjackets when they anchored in their home port and defeated Pinckneyville, 26-12. Chester's opponents were a heavy team, but the Yellowjackets held the advantage in speed. Each team collected six points in the opening period. C. G. Cowell carried the ball over for the first Yellowjacket touchdown. On the sec- ond period Chester launched an attack which collected fourteen points while their rivals were held in check. Cowell and Iohnson were re- sponsible for the two touchdowns, and .both conversions were good. After the opening kick-off of the second half, Pinckneyville net ed one touchdown on sheer weight and power. The Yellowjackets collected their final touch- down in the fourth quarter when Bremen Ma- gers tossed a pass to Bob Aszrnan, who was standing near the goal line. October l5 . . . CARBONDALE-CHESTER. Weigh anchor! Full speed ahead! Playing for the last time in a Yellowjacket uniform, Bob Davis showed the fans some flashy football. Spurred on by his spectacular playing, Coach Markel's boys trounced Carbondale 32-O. The Yellowjackets netted their first touchdown in Page 29 FOOTBALL 4 1943 the second quarter when Davis ran ninety yards along the sidelines for the initial marker. This run was abrilliant exhibition of open field running. After collecting seven more points in the third quarter, the Yellowjackets really went to work in the fourth period and gained nineteen points. Nixon, Cowell, and Davis scored a touchdown apiece. Bob Davis wound up his athletic career at Chester High in a blaze of glory by accounting for eighteen points in the fast moving game. When Bob went into the Navy, everyone at Chester High knew that a star had departed from the football squad. October 23 . . . DuQuoin-Chester. Belay me, mates! The seas were choppy on this voyage! DuQuoin defeated the fighting Yel- lowjackets 7-0 in the home port. DuQuoin gained their seven points early in the game, and the Yellowjackets could neithegqeven up nor push ahead. The DuQuoin swabs concen- trated on an aerial attack and completed several long passes. f 1 october 29 . . . MUnP1-rYsBono-Ci-ne:s- TER. Don't lose courage, me heartiesl The undefeated Murphysboro team edged out the gallant Yellowjackets before a large crowd which viewed the hotly contested battle in the Chester port. The Iackets fought hard but seemed to lack that little offensive punch that would have tumed defeat into a sparkling victory. The Murphysboro Redlegs lashed in- to action shortly after the beginning of the first period to score seven points. The Redlegs scored the touchdown on a run around the left end. Delbert Wittenborn, Chester quarter- back, made a dazzling forty yar'd run in the second quarter, but the Yellowjackets could not grasp the scoring opportunity. Chester came back determined to win in the final peri- ods. The Yellowjackets started sailing for a touchdown in the fourth, but a severe penalty knocked away all hopes of victory. When the game ended, Murphysboro was still in corn- mand of the seven-point lead. November ll . . . SPARTA-CHESTER. The Yellowjackets sailed over to the Sparta port and anchored there for the battle today. The Sparta Bulldogs licked the Chester Yellow- jackets 21-6. This win was number seven for Sparta, who has had one ot their greatest seasons in years. While Chester was piling up miscues, Sparta played inspired football behind Wade, their hard-driving fullback. The fackets showed very little offense, and the half ended with Sparta in command of a 15-U lead. After an exchange of punts in the third quarter, Coach Markel substituted Cowell, and the Yel- lowjackets found clear sailing. One touchdown resulted when Magers threw a short pass to Lentz. Two more drives that were labeled for touchdowns ended short. Those old salts, Magers, Lentz, and Iohnson, really played good football for Chester. November 25 . . . PERRYVILLE-CHESTER. This was the last voyage of the Yellowjackets of 1943. Gathering their power, they trampled over Perryville 18-13 at the brilliant Thanks- giving game and wound up the season in a blaze of glory. Chester used the ancient Sta- tue of Liberty play, the spread formation, and the T formation. Perryville stuck with a ground attack and was not able to make any headway until the last quarter. Perryville kicked off to open the feature battle. During the opening quarter both teams played safe with most of the gains going to Chester. At the half Chester held the lead of 12-0. When the play was resumed, Wittenborn made a run for lU6 yards for a touchdown. Magers missed the conver- sion. ln the fourth period Chester hung on stubbornly and insured their victory. Coach Markel and the boys are to be con- gratulated for their fine work this year. The Yellowjackets docked and cast anchor at last, having won three games and lost thr'ee this year. The Southwestern Egyptian Conference rat- ings for football this year were: Murphysboro, first, Anna-Ionesboro, secondg Chester, Du- Quoin, and Pinckneyville, third, Carbondale, fourth. The following boys earned their letters in football this year: Delbert Adams, C. G. Cowell, Harold Lawder, Delbert Magers, Charles Spur'- geon, Delbert Wittenborn, Bob Aszman, Ronald Doerge, lack Lentz, Wilbert Magers, Wayne Tindall, Charles Young, Vincent Campanella, Virgil Iohnson, Herbert Lochhead, Roland Nix- on, funior Reuscher, Norman Reuscher, and Bob Davis. . 55 iii Whewl This season was a . . . what? Yes, I represent the team. Those girls are trying to figure out a way to help me. They will, too. You can't keep the C. H. S. team down. We'll go all-out next year, won't we?

Diskey, W. Davidson, B. Davis, W. Gerberding, H. Lawder. Ahoy, matesl The thirty-fourth C. H. S. track season ended in glory. The Yellowjackets tied with DuQuoin for the Southwestern Egyp- tian Conference championship. Yes, it was a team ot champions. ' We set sail at the first meet, which was the dual meet held at Chester on April 6, Chester won by a wide margin. The Yellowjackets ran up a total of 66 points against Pinckney- ville's 47, and at the same time broke one of the school's standing records. Gerberding ran the l00-yard dash in l0 seconds and 2 tenths to set a new r'ecord. The next meet was held at Perryville, where C. H. S. defeated the Missourians, 58 to 47. In a triangular meet at Pinckneyville, April l3, Pinckneyville, DuQuoin, and Chester com- peted for first place. Gerberding and Davis won both l00 and 200-yard dashes. The relay team composed of Gerberding, Davis, McKee, and Davidson also took first. Bartels won in the discus event. When the Yellowjackets accepted the honor' to participate in the invitational track meet at Hurst Bush on April l6, they stepped into some strong competition, Murphysboro, Centralia, West Frankfort, DuQuoin, Harrisburg, Carbon- dale University High, Zeigler and others partici- pated. Our boys came home with third honors. Chester took first and second in the l00 and 220 yard dash, second in the relays, and fifth and a tie in the pole vault. Davis and Gerber- ding featured in the dash event. Total points were West Frankfort 47, Centralia 33, Chester 221A, and Pinckneyville l9Vz. ln the triangular meet at Pinckneyville be- Page 31 tween Sparta, Pinckneyville, and Chester on April 20, Pinckneyville edged out the Yellow- jackets by six points. Totals were Pinckney- ville 69, Chester' 63, Sparta 8. The county meet on April 20 was a day of rejoicing for the Yellowjackets. The county meet turned out to be a dual one between Sparta and Chester. The Iackets defeated their rivals by the score of 93 to 23. Two county records were broken by the fleet Iackets. Ger- berding ran the l00 yard dash in 10 seconds and 3 tenths, which broke the county time formerly held by Boston of Sparta tl938J. Gerberding, Davis, McKee, and Davidson set a new county relay record in l:391A1. Delbert Wittenborn set a new school record of 440 yards in 55.4 seconds. At the Southwestern Egyptian Conference meet on April 29 Chester tied with DuQuoin for first place with 55 points each. The Yellow- jackets took three firsts, three seconds, and four third places in the meet. Chester dominated the dashes, Pinckneyville the field events and hurdles, and DuQuoin the distance runs and weights. The Yellowjackets may well be proud of their outstanding achievements. They have brought the trophies into the C. H. S. trophy room so that teams of the future will try to match their wins. At the district meet at West Frankfort on May 7 the Yellowjackets placed third. Fout members of the team qualified for the state finals. Gerberding, Davis, McKee, and Davidson competed in the state finals at Champaign on May 14. The boys were eliminated, however. BASKETBALL, 194341944 In his first year at the helm of the Yellowjacket basketball team, Coach Markel was faced with imposing obstacles. Graduation and the armed forces riddled a squad that had managed to win but three games the previ- ous year. Another thing that must be taken into consideration is the fact that our conference contained four of the best teams in Southern Illinois. Handi- caps, however, didn't keep the Orange and Black from developing into a courageous team which provided a threat to one and all. With an eye to the future the Yellowjacket instructor used a large squad in most of the games. By this method many of the younger members of the squad have gained valuable experience. Willis Carter, a senior, was the only letterman. Dick Eggers, a junior, played on the reserve squad last year. Sophomores Young, Wright, Wittenborn, Lawder, Klindworth, Rogers, Spur- geon, Lochhead, Doerge, and Witter combined with Freshmen Iohnson, Schop- fer, and Coffey to round out the team. The Yellowjackets were mowed down as expected in their early games. By midseason they were still on the short end, but the margins were narrow. For three quarters the Chester boys matched speed and skill with Carbon- dale, DuQuoin, and Sparta, only to fold up in the final drive that spells vic- tory or defeat. The highlights of the season came in two thrilling encounters with Murphysboro. The boys were evenly matched in height, speed, and ex- perience. Both teams played in sensational fashion to thrill home crowds, but the Red Devils managed to gain the victories. Perryville came across the river With a team of giants and plenty of confidence, but the Yellowjackets turned in a dazzling exhibition of speed after a careful first half. The Iackets won easily 37-25. - The Yellowjacket Freshman and Sophomore team wound up the season in what may be termed a blaze of glory by winning the Sparta Tournament, March 6-ll. This championship may Well serve as the hand-writing on the Wall for the future. Outstanding work was turned in by Sophomore Charles Young, and Freshman Virgil lohnson. Under Coach Markel's training these boys may form the nucleus of the future Yellowjacket basketball team. GAME RESULTS OF THE SEASON: Dec Chester ................ 33 -- Steeleville ...,. Dec.

CEggers got the Hicks cups and had to Veath the room.J After dinner we went on a tour of the ship. One interesting place was Montroy's Barber Shoppe. Now we know where Frankie and Harold got those crew cuts. Piosik's Grill and Bar was a popular place, especially the latter. Wittenbrink. Tindall. Wolshock. and Wal- temate were singing Sweet Adeline in true barber shop fashion. We were cruising along at sixteen Knotts an hour when there was a sudden commotion. Betty was being chased by a Fox for was it a wolf'?J Campanella. the ship's chef, followed, madly waving a cook Book and dish Kloth in the air. She was determined not to have her cupboard as bare as Mother Hubbard's. Over in a dark corner behind some Fems. Iohnson and Billington were playing with some galloping dominoes. Shame on you! Frager. who had been playing, too, said, Hecht, I lost everything, even my watch chain and McKees. Runge. Mueller. Clessa. and Meyer were playing shuffle board, while Schirxner. Iackie. Nedra. and Vieregge tried out the swimming pool. Down in the galley Roger Eggemeyer. Bals- man. and Asselmeier were on KP.-peeling onions. Ph-Huey! Welge, Rodewald. and Uf- felman were doing dishes. Hulda. Wagner. Irene and Middendorf were swabbing the decks lManpoWer shortage, you knowl when some airplanes flew over. Brown. Eggemeyer. Gagel. and Rheimer got so excited they nearly fell overboard, it was a Heinks of nearly one hundred feet to the water. Hecke and Stebbins almost got into a Feyght over the question of who had the best team, the New York Ycmkeys or the Brooklyn Doerges. They asked McConkey, and he said, Eber side is OK. with me. Buenger and Grott were playing deck ten- nis. Tiny sprained her finger and went to Lochhead's cabin to get some Lindnerment to put on it. Last night We had a big party on board ship. The Three B's, Barker. Brelig. and Bar- ton. sang a song and the Six Sisters, Marilyn and Thelma Pyron. Lenora and Marguerite Wittenbrink. and the Hartenberger twins, lur- nished the music. Athmer. the awful, and Hercules Hammel amazed us with their feats of strength. He pulled some rab- Page 38 bits out ot a hat and were they Hopkins all over the placel Hettesheimer and Menke rushed in and shouted, We're headed straight for a big Sturnpe! We tried to Tumer around, but couldnt Suddnly there was a big crash and many of us were Casten to the sea. Our Kraft was sunk, but we all climbed safely onto a Ranft and set sail for shore. Welch. a passing Fisherman, picked us up and we all safely reached the shore of Sopho- more landl I I x.. R ' ..
