Editor 'V l .. ,,, , '1 1' O .L':: O Ill Wo, the Senior Class of l9QQ, present this book to the stuJente and faculty of Colchester High School with the hope that we have successfully and permanently recorded enough of the incident: and activities of this school year so that you may relive this year as often as you thumb through the peg s of this book. Dedication We, the Senior Class of lQ4Q, wish to dedicate this annual to Miss Myrtle Randall and Mr. Wilbur Jewsbury, who have so willingly devoted their time and service to us during the past four years.

Through the reorganization of this area the education of all pupils through Grades lel2 is organized and con- trolled by one Board of Education consisting of seven mem- bers. This single Board of Education succeeds twenty-three Boards of Directors and two Boards of Education composed of a combined total of eighty-one members. There will be no immediate change through the re- organization that will result in any marked effect upon Colchester High School. However, an overall analysis of the program will reveal that the Unit type of school or- ganization will result in a program of education that provides for greater continuity of training. And in the '31 v-'N Q -m, Colchester Unit School District 5180 lcon'tJ final analysis it is an ultimate objective that our educational program train our youth for the highest type of citizenship in our democracy, in order that they may be better fitted and adjusted to assume their role in our social and economic society.

Shirley McGaughey kept an accurate record of all the finances of the group of prospectors, and Arland Hooker kept all the records in good shape. The chief task accomplished was the organization of camp routine and the provision of- definite work for each prospector. Eleven of us thought the camp needed a little music, so we joined bandg thirteen joined glee club, and twelve, dramatics. To keep our muscles in tone after the long ride5 fourteen joined G. A. A. and five, baseball and basketball. During that first year we prospectors enjoyed many parties and dances. ln the second year we really got to work in earnest on the search for the mine from which we were going to obtain gold. We participated in, and enjoyed many of the parties of the school., The class, in the year 1947-48, finally began to dig on the gold strike, and the outcome looked promising. We changed the govermental seats, making Otis Henry chief Home Ec. 1,2 Marvin Miller 'Q Deloris Clauson Jennie McCullough Home Ee. 4 G,A.A. 1,2,5,4 Pep Club 5,4 Annual Staff Glee Club 1,2 Otis Henry Band l,2,5,4 Class Officer 2,5 Play Cast 5,4 Annual Staff' Basketball 2,5 Baseball l,2,5,4 HomeABC. 4 Librarian 4 G.A,A. l,2,5 Pep Club 2,5,4 Music Contest 4 Play Cast 5 Annual Staff Glee Club 1,2,5,4 Mary Logan Librarian 5 G.A.A. 1 TPHCK 5,4 Class Officer 4 F.

As our finances were increasing gradually, our treasurer, Allene ' Jones, had quite a job. lhe records of the progress were in charge of Narjie McClure. The band boasted five pros- pectors, glee club eight, baseball six, and basketball six. A representative came from Herff Jones Co. and we ordered our class rings. We are all very proud of them. On November 7, we sponsored our class play, Out of This Lorldu, the cast consisting of Norma Hixon, Maxine Kreps, Margaret Schulte, Doris Stump, Narjie McClure, Betty Simpson, Jennie McCullough, Otis Henry, Nax Louderman, Lavern Smith, Jack Baird, and Arland Hooker. Gur director was Mrs. Ross. The play was a huge success. We gave the prospectors of '48 a grand send-off in the form of a Junior- Senior Banquet at the Odd Fellows Hall in Colchester. An additional treat was a free tovie in Macomb. We prospectors then went on a three months' vacation to renew our energy in order that during our final year, we might put forth our utmost efforts to strike the real gold in Colchester High. I Re hope that this year we'll finally get the gold. Our leading prospector is Margaret Schulte assisted by Doris Stump. Our treasurer getting the finances ready for the big strike is Mary Logan and our record keeper is Marjie McClure Four professional prospectors are in bandg seven in glee clubj ten in mixed chorusg nine in G. A. A.g fourteey in neo clubg five in hasehallg and four in basketball. We orosoectors are nlanninz to take a tour to Chicago to celebrate our four vears of orosoecting. We have soon- sored a record dance and also the Homecoming Dance to raise monev. The King and Queen, Arland Hooker and Joan Zimmerman were both members of the 49'ers. During this last vear the cheer-leaders, Doris Stumo, Maxine Krebs, Joan Zimnerman and Margie McClure, were also members of the U9'ers groun. The D. A. R. award was nresented to Marqaret Schulte. The class clay of the 'U9ers, WSusie the Sirenn was a good one. The cast consisted of Allene Jones? Qettv Simoson, Bonnie Booth, Alice UcMullen, Doris Qtumn, Varjie Wcclure, Lola Griffith, Shirlev McGaughev, Yarraret qchulte, Conrad Wetzel, Wav Louderman, Arland Hooker, John Pitfenqer, Otis Qenrv, LaVern Smith, and Leon Qarrell. The director was Urs. Roberts. We 'MOers are now nearinq the end of our four Years of nrospectinq in Colchester Communitv High School, and we are sure that the Work we have done here will enable us to strike a richer vein of ore in the future.

One term of this diggin' for gold gained us third place in this mad rush. Our bones were gettin' mighty tired again so we paused for a brief three months. We finally collected our creak- ing bones land l1n1ment!B, and erected them on the wagon next to the '49ers. Uiaining fast, aren't we?D To enlighten our tee-jus journey several belles blended their sweet voices and sang to the accomoanl- ment of the Brillant Blowers Band. During a three year period several of our boys gallivanted off and became farm- ers taking the best Cfemalel cooks with them. The rest of the ladies and gents spent their time playing new fan- dangled ge-mes called basketball and baseball. fYeah, they didn't do much workj Shall we go into detail? You might as well say yes, . because we're gonna! On October 3, l946 we were initiated into the caravan. lOuchlJ Later that evening they bandaged our wounds, cheer ed our aching hearts and fed us hot dogs with the pickle in the middle and the mustard on top. Headquarters suggested we elect officers under the leadership of Miss Kern. Betty Nelson was elected bartenderg Paul Parks, walterg ann McGrann, secretaryg and Jack Uollenback, cashier. CVO, not much use but we're plan- ning on striking gold.D Nine months of these characters was too auch for us. We thought maybe Paul Parks, Max Powell, June McCullough and Bob Waterbury could do better. Mrs. Mary Whittsitt carried the lantern along the trail to llgtt us on our merry way. We soon stopped. KYou guessed it. Tired againl? Mrs. Anderson f'ubba! Hubbell brought us out of hibernation with her faithful and optimistic smile.

During our freshman and sophomore years twelve picks and shovels left our busy group, and at the end of the first semester of our sonhomore year a new pick, Vary Mason, entered our school. Under the direction of Miss Peck we elected our class officers. We chose Dale Nordue for our main picker and Gene Uall as the assistant. Our nugget keeper was Wanda McGaughey, and Darlene Fightower was our minute keeper. On October 22, we were initiated by our friends, the Sopkomores. We were out through various acts and were made official members of the l'Gold Rush . 'That evening a party was given in our honor by the wealthy nuggets. There were nine nicks out for baseball, and ten for basketball. Eighteen shovels were in G. A. A., and ten in Glee Glub. Also there were nine members in the Band- For the Homecoming, Beverly Ynotdes and Charles Stump WST6 ChOS91'1 to 1 Sp1'8Se!'1t US. Then on September 1, 1948, forty-eight of us started picking and shoveling once again, under the direction of Mr. Harris. Paul MoGrann was oushed ahead as leader and his assistant was Shirley Beck. Our haooenings and dis' coverings were kept by Diane Hulson and our gold by Beverly Knowles. ' We were fortunate to have forty-six freshmen at our mercy on October 17, and they had to oerform various acts and were able to come to the party that evening which was given in their honor. On February 4, 1949, an all school skating party was held in Macomb, with the Soohomores as soonsor. 1 We chose for our King and Qneen this year--Diane Hulson and Bill Jamison. The picks and shovels are an active grouo with seven- teen in Glee Club, eleven in Mixed Chorus, eight in Band, fourteen in 3. A. A., twelve in baseball and ten in basket ball, and seven in F. F. A. The Sophomore class is oroud of their second basket- ball team that won sixteen games and lost only four. The first five are Dale Mordue, Mike Wayland, Charles Stump, Phillip Fleming, and Bill Jamison.

Under the guidance of our chief miner, Miss Lavery, we chose for President--Alberta Schulte: Vice President--Ernest Stone: Secretary--Carroll Elston: and for collector of nuggets, Carl Raymond. During the first semester we were sorry to find tuat two miners had taken up new claims in other schools. ' On October 7, the claim owners put us through a test. We passed and we're now rated as true '49'ers. 'Ihat night we were treated to a party by our sophomore friends. we were also represented in sports. Eight of our boys went out to dig scores for Mr. Webster in basketball and ten in baseball. Thirteen ladies joined G. A. A. Ten joined Glee Club. Eight of our members showed their talent in Band. Miss Peck, our chief miner, announced Honors at the close of the first semester, giving High Honors to Jerry Van Ormer, Honors to Leola Wayland and Honorable Mention to Joan Damp, Joan Jewsbury, Eugene Keithley, Lekoy Martin, Louise Robinson, and Billy Williams.

The Band under the direction of Professor Wilbur Jewsbury, has gone a long way toward success this year. Every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday during the sixth hour you can hardly study for the beautiful music floating up from the gymnasium. If you hear the band ston in the middle of a piece it is just because we hit a wrong note and we must be berfect you know. If you hear a squeak it just came from the Clarinet section and if you hear a loud rip on a horn you know it came from the Altos, I wonder who? There are about thirty members in the UAW Band this year. The High School also has s HBH Band, which meets on the same days as UAW Band. There are about six members in it, Next year they will come un to WAN Band and start on their road to success. Sandra Cook, Shirley Beck, Joan Jewsbury, Bob Anblegate, Leonard Haines, Billy Henness, Billy Husband, Estelene Black all Joined the UAH Band this year. Wanda Vance transferred from Colchester to Macomb, Gerald Shelley, and Bob Applegate quit the Band, The Band has had several engagements this year. They played for the Junior and Senior class plays, and they helped keep up the school spirit by playing for several basketball games, this season. We also helped the Col- chester Business Men, by playing for the benefit show to help get Christmas lights for Colchester, The Band and Glee Club are planning a Spring Concert to be given the latter part of April. Several members of the Band entered the District Music Contest which was held at Quincy.

There were four classes, each meeting a double 4 oeriod, with the excention of the seniors who met one period, There was a total enrollment of sixty-eight girls in the Henartment. A comnosite course of stufy was followed, consisting of units on clothing, foods, family relations, child care home furnishings, and conduct. The foods laboratorynconsists of three unit kitchens comnlete with stove, sink, and cupboarfs for family food preparation. There are five sewing machines for clothing construction. ' The room was decorated with the color scheme of sea-foam green walls, cream ivory woodwork, an6 maroon work surface. The clothing cunbards, tables, ann chairs are of birch.

HOUE ECONOMICS ROOM fm ,Z IQL t I fl f ' - - 1' 'WSL 1948-1949 Future Farmers of America The F.F.A. is a national organization of students enrolled in Vocational Agriculture. Some of the major aims of the chapter are: to develop competent rural lead- ership, to create interest in a love for farming as an occupation, to encourage members to improve the home, to encourage cooperative efforts, and to encourage thrift and savings. ' This is the third year since the Colchester Chapter was reorganized after the war. One of the main problems facing the Chapter this year was to secure funds for desired chapter activities. The members raised money by securing the dealership for a farm magazine, selling candy at noon, sponsoring a Magician Show, and selling garden seeds. - Ten Greenhands were initiated, bringing-the active membership up to thirty-two at the beginning of the school year. Twenty-nine members-are listed on the Chapter roll at the present time. , The members have held regular monthly business meetings throughout the year. In addition, they sponsored a Sadie Hawkins Day party for the Home Economics girls. For this party, the boys bought an album of square dance records. Much confusion resulted, but everyone enjoyed the evening. For another recreational activity, the F.F.A. boys organized a basketball team and challenged several other5V5A , ,M chapters in the county to games. QThey defeated Good Hope, there, by a score of 51-16 on the home court. Other games were with Gord Hope and Bushnell at home.D The team also won the Prairie City Invitational F.F.A. tournament. As another recreational activity, as well as an edu- cational activity, the members voted to appropriate money to cover part of the expenses for an annual trip for the senior members of the Chapter. This year the seniors plan to travel to St. Louis or so the Ozarks. The Chapter participated in three judging events. A county judging contest of fat stock and dairy was spon- sored by the Prairie City uhit. The Chapter placed seventh in the contest. The team of fat stock judges was made up oft Wendell Wetzel, David Coulter, James Gallagher, Otis Henry, and Wayne Fugate. The dairy team was made up of: Robert Kreps, Gene Louderman, Franklin Hooker, Max Mesecher, and Leon Harrell. On January 15, 1949, a grain and weed seed identification contest was held at Nauvoo. The team was made up of: Otis Henry, Paul Perks, and John Pittenger. The boys made a very good showing considering their lack of preparation. ,W FEP CLUB I The Pep Club was reorganized in November with forty-six members. The persons elected to carry on the executive duties under the direction of Miss Janice Preston were as follows: President - Doris Stump Vice-President - Jean McCullum Secretary - Joan Zimmerman Treasurer - Bonnie Booth The purpose of the club is to learn new yells and support the team when they're trying hard for success. The Pep Club sponsored a party April 14 in honor of the basketball boys.

Arland was small but very scrappy and was the best rebounder for his size in the County, The team had no need to fear a press with'Hocker and Louderman in the back court, 5. Leon Harrell did not try out for basketball until his Sophomore year and as a result, he was not as experienced as his fellow Seniors. However, he compensated for his lack of experience by his speed and general all around offensive ability. 4, Dean Ives, a Junior on the squad, came along fast this year. He developed into an excellent shot and was very de- ceptive on the floor. We are expecting a great year from Dean next season. 5. Max Powell was a 'work horse' on the bank boards. He was able to rebound with opposition, having definite height advantage, Max has developed into a good shot from the pivot. We are looking forward to his having a good year in '49-'50, Other varsity lettermen were: Dale Mordue, Phillip Fleming, Mike Wayland, Charles Stump, and Bill Jamison. These boys played second team ball and also saw action in the varsity games. They had an excellent record of 17 wins against 4 losses and appear to be fine material for Coach Webster in moulding this '40-'50 team, Other Sophomores and Freshman showing promising ability this year are: Richard Murphy Gene Hall Delbert Roberts Gene Louderman Delbert Clark Keith Carson The Season's Record We They Macomb 47 56 Industry 55 ll Bushnell 55 59 Prairie city 35 27 Anchor 42 55 Plymouth 57 58 Western 50 40 Hamilton 28 55 Bardolph 44 26 western 51 49 Dallas City 25 49 Danny Van Fleet Delmar Ibrethy Loren Coulter Billy Williams Ronnie Lorenson Jerry Brown Industry Blandinsville Western LaHarpo Blandinsvillc Macomb Plymouth Bushnell ' Hamilton Macomb We 48 46 56 54 56 43 54 57 58 45 They 27 55 47 55 54 66 50 66 55 51 BASEBALL In the fall of 'MS the Colchester High baseball team played five games winning them all.

They then defeated Plymouth twice, lj to 3 and 6 to 3. with pitcher, Max Louderman, pitching a no hit no run game, they then shut out Augusta 6 to O for a perfect season The batting averages of the boys are as follows: AB Lorenson 2 Henry lj Brown 18 Ives l7 Berth 9 Louderman l?
