Collinsville High School - Kahokian Yearbook (Collinsville, IL)

Text from Pages 1 - 156 of the 1929 volume:

Long before there was the Collinsville High School, or even the state called ' Illinois there was the forest. Bound with water courses, dotted with rolling hills, she stretched her emerald body along the pathway of the sun and brooded in the dusty silence on the Mysteries. Here lived and loved, roaming the purple shadows and carving the waterways with paddle blades, a people. Noble were they, high of courage and quick of understanding. And we. an alien race, usurping their power and their place, pause in our hunt for knowledge along their misted trails to meditate. T wo For here along the reaches of the Mississippi Bluffs there goes glimmering in the twilight the flash of moccasin soles. And is there against the sky. a large red building? Are there brick and title? Foolish one! The Thunder Bird has caught you napping and given you a dream! See, naught but the wigwams among the trees. And those beads of light far-fleeing as a strange city? Ah—Dreamer . . . The paddle-blade of your lover blinking in the moon!

Was it war, he led and braved, with war clubs only, the blows of other brave men! Was it peace, he picked the ground for hunting, and taught the young men how to use the Forest into giving up her Mysteries. Days, dreams, and fancies ... all are flitting past Glad days, mad days, how long will they last? The Winter mornings, the Springtime hours. The city a garden with youth for flowers. T wel ve Day after day Youth wends its way,— Pausing awhile, yet not to stay. The branches swing, out in the Spring. Till the young heart seems like a bird in wing With its imagining.

Fourteen But oh. the magic of Indian moons! The OPEN DOOR— And life that waits before. And those that climbed the steps, must now go down Where the world waits them in each seething town:— And yet. next spring the campus will bloom as green Fifteen With the youth that comes and the memories that have been.

We look back over our four years, spent here, and think again of all the successes and failures, joys and sorrows that have been ours. A tender feeling is attached to the scenes in and around our house of learning” and it is with a deep regret that we realize that we shall soon be leaving them. We feel that our future life will be much happier and more successful because of the preparation we have here received. At the opening of our Freshman year the one hundred and twenty-four members held a class meeting because we had heard that that was the thing to do. The next question was to choose sponsors. Miss Horner and Miss Quern-heim were chosen and very ably filled this position until the Junior Year when Miss Williams was chosen to fill the position vacated by Miss Horner upon her departure from the school. This year a Hallowe'en party was given which proved to be one of those never-to-be-forgotten affairs. During our Sophomore year we had no social activities. But the class of '29 was not as idle as might be inferred from the dearth of activities. Several members of our class were becoming very well known because of their scholastic or athletic ability. In fact, the class as a whole was living up to the saying. Whatever is worth doing at all is worth doing well. This principle was carried out from beginning to end. The Junior year, during which dignity and independence sprang into being (for were we not now termed upper classmen ?) saw us engaged in a hurried but systematic scramble for funds to be used for the Junior-Senior Reception which the class determined to make the best ever. Our first venture was a motion picture. This proved to be such a financial success that we were anxious to try our hand at something else. A rummage sale was next decided on. which proved to be a howling success, not only in a financial way. but also in affording a good time for those participating. Eighteen Juniors took part in a dramatic presentation of Booth Tarkington’s ever popular play Penrod. The cast was directed by Miss Williams. The comedy was well acted, held the attention of a packed auditorium and will always be held up to future classes as the ideal high school play. The play proved to be such a success that many requested that it be given a second time. However, the request could not be granted as preparations for the reception were now well under way. The Juniors were amply rewarded for their lucre-making essays when they combined their efforts to give one of the most successful Junior-Senior Receptions in the history of the school. The gymnasium was superbly decorated to represent a vineyard. Great clusters of balloons were suspended from a willow-covered ceiling to represent the grapes. The bursting of the grapes furnished many laughs. The entertainment was highly interesting and novel. With the many gayly colored balloons, decorations and bright-colored lights the affair was as gorgeous a one as the school has ever seen and will long remain in the memories of those attending. Our Senior year gave us a new dignity which only a Senior knows. We held the annual Homecoming Christmas week, welcoming home many alumni of C. T. H. S. A one-act play, The Wonder Hat, was given and other interesting talks and musical numbers presented. Thus ends our activities so far. It is with deep regret that we say adieu to C. T. H. S.

Junior Class History On September 7, 1926. one hundred and thirty-five boys and girls entered the C. T. H. S. not for the first time as individuals but for the first time as a class. It was on this memorable day that they embarked upon a four-year voyage on the Ship of Knowledge. During the first few days of school they crept mouselike through the halls and flitted silently in and out of classrooms. The faculty beamed with approval at the manner in which the Freshies conducted themselves. But, alas, after a few days of the demoralizing companionship of the upper classmen, they ran shouting through the halls like veterans. A meeting was called to organize the class. The meeting proceeded noisily and Miss Eckart and Miss Kyle were selected for the difficult task of sponsoring this irresponsible group of youngsters. Next the class officers were voted on and Gus Poneleit. Tony Klobuchar. Everett Beckman and Bernice Followell were elected President. Vice-President, Secretary, and Treasurer, respectively. The girls of the class organized two campfires, the Tawanka. sponsored by Miss Kyle, and the Apelachi. sponsored by Miss Williams. On the athletic field the Freshman class honor was ably upheld. Gus Poneleit winning letters in football, basketball, baseball and track, in addition to being chosen as All Conference forward in basketball. A year rolled by and the Freshies came back to school as sophisticated Sophomores. Down the halls they had formerly walked timidly, they now strode masterfully. With glances of pity and amusement they watched the new Freshies and eagerly helped in making life as miserable as possible for them. A meeting was held, but the wise Sophs did not live up to their reputation. The meeting, as far as noise was concerned, rivaled if it did not excel the meeting held by them as Freshmen. Bill Look was elected President: Evelyn Krause. Vice-President. Nona Hughes, Secretary, and Jim Gray. Treasurer. The first activity in which the class participated was a party. This came off on January 2. 1928. and proved a big success. A show followed, and later, on May 1 2. the Sophs gave a circus which was one of the most novel shows ever held in the C. T. H. S. On the athletic field the name of Sophs stood for much for a large number of Sophomores won letters in various sports and gave promise of future progress. At last 1929 rolled around and the sophisticated Sophs returned to school as even more sophisticated Juniors. They strolled down the halls, lording it over the under classmen. Indeed they had reason to be proud, for in their minds the class of ’30 was the greatest mass of mental ability ever assembled as a class in the C. T. H. S. In spite of the fact that they were now juniors, the first meeting held was a bit merrier and noisier than meetings usually are. Maurice Newberger, Mary Meni. Hazel Teter and Logan Newman were selected to conduct the affairs of the class as President, Vice-President. Secretary, and Treasurer, respectively. The class decided to give a picture on November 9. 1928. A few weeks later a rummage sale was held at the Methodist Church and was a success. So far this year Juniors have been very prominent in sports and their value in athletics is steadily increasing. The members of the Class of 1930 have so far had a successful and happy voyage on their Ship of Knowledge and when 1930 arrives it will find them ready and tugging at the ropes, eager to make 1930 a record year in study, sports and social activities.

We began our class activities in October when our first meeting was called to order. At this meeting we elected Mr. Summit and Miss Weber, who were new teachers at C. T. H. S.. as our class sponsors. At this meeting we elected Arthur Borsch as our class president. Since the period in which we elected our class sponsors and president was short, another meeting had to be called to elect the other class officers. Those elected for the offices at this meeting were Leo Shimkus, vice-president: L.enial Gamble, secretary, and Myrtis Bowers, treasurer. As our first attempt at class entertainment, we gave a Hallowe’en party. This party was a success for those who made it that way and a failure for those who didn’t try to make it anything but a failure. There were not many, however, who made it what was last mentioned. Later on in the new year 1928 we gave a picture show. Maybe some may consider us conceited, but we. as a whole, think this picture was a bigger success, according to finance, than any other show given that year. In May. 1928. we gave a picnic at Deterding’s park. Most of those who went hiked in automobiles.’’ Everyone enjoyed himself immensely, perhaps more so because there were no dishes to be washed. Dishwashing always seems a big problem at parties. I I September. 1928, we entered school again, quite decreased in numbers, and assumed the dignified name of Sophomores. At a meeting which was held a little later. Clifford Finley was elected as our president: Dorothy Willoughby, vice-president: Ruth Carroll, secretary, and Victor Zeable, treasurer. About the second Saturday in January we gave a party. As usual a general good time was had by all who attended.” A moving picture show was given February 26. The Boys' Glee Club sang and were quite a drawing card. We have several pupils of note in our class. By “of note” I mean those who have played different positions on the football and basketball team and other notable places in school affairs. This concludes our activities to date, but we have part of this year and two full years ahead of us. Perhaps by the time we are seniors we will have so much history that it will take the whole Kahokian book to write it in. Come on. Sophomores, let’s make more history!

The class of ’32. one hundred and forty strong, represents one-third of the entire enrollment of the school. At the beginning of the year, the Freshman class was without a leader, so that their first meeting, held October 7, in the auditorium, was for the purpose of selecting sponsors and electing officers capable of managing the affairs and responsibilities of the class. Miss Sites and Miss Norrington were chosen to advise the class, and decide all disputes, or troubles that might arise. The officers elected were as follows: President Howard GlI.LASPY Vice-President BERNICE BERTRAM Secretary-Treasurer ELIZABETH THOMPSON Plans were discussed for a Christmas party, after which the meeting adjourned. Two Freshman Campfire groups were formed, the Cholena Campfire, with Miss Steiner as guardian, and the Minneheca. with Miss Sites as guardian. The Cholena Campfire gave a benefit picture to help fill their treasury. The Minneheca Campfire gave a party in the Cafeteria. February 16, and by the looks of the school on the following Monday morning it looked as though they had forgotten to put out the campfire. The only indulgence in social life for the Freshmen so far was a Christmas party given December 21. The party was given in the Cafeteria, which was decorated with the usual red and green colors and a large, decorated, Christmas tree stood at one end of the Cafeteria. Albert Rachun made an excellent Santy Claus” and led the games. A lunch was served and was followed by a very interesting program. Everyone had a very delightful time and departed at a late hour. The Latin I classes are keeping an individual record of all the pupils' ability to memorize forms. So far, a Freshman, Kathryn Webb, has established the highest record by saying the forms in one and one-half minutes, and there were Sophomores and Juniors in the classes, too! In the dictionary contest. Arlene Luker, a Freshman, won a prize, if it can be called that, a very small pocket dictionary, for finishing last. The Freshman class cannot boast of many athletes this year. Thurman Parker was the only one making any team, and that being the lightweight team. We feel that next year we will be better represented in football, tennis, track, basketball and baseball. As the year is slipping over, we expect to serve the C. T. H. S. in the next three years to the best of our ability. We shall always be ready to serve C. T. H. S. in whatever way she may ask of us. and we promise that you will have great things from us in the future. -U-'-L-'-'—--I---1 Fifty i'illy-one Work, and the joy of it!

Waving Fern, as she prepares the softest deer skin for a robe? tifty-two f ORGANIZATIONS Fifty-three ......................Illlllll.llllllllllllCCCCt I he Royal Razzers Throughout the Southwestern Conference this group of rah-rah boys maintains the reputation of having more pep than any other cheering organization. Organized in 1923, they have attended every home game since then. The aim of the organization is to make noise, to lend moral support to the team, and to help the visiting team feel at home. Their picturesque attire, white shirts, purple sashes and white trousers with purple stripes, suggests orientalism as they march in military fashion the length of the gymnasium. Seated in the cheering section they enliven the game ai frequent intervals. The order this year is composed mostly of juniors and seniors, though a few sophomores have been honored with membership. Freshmen are not admitted as members but may look forward to that distinction when they become sophomores. D. R. Sherretz has been their advisor since 1924 when he became a member of the faculty of C. T. H. S. At the close of last year he resigned, but when re-elected unanimously, accepted the sponsorship for one more year. Each year the Razzers give all lettermen of the school a banquet in appreciation of their athletic prowess. Along with the banquet the Razzers provide a prominent athlete or coach who gives a talk. The officers this year are: George Blanquart. King: William Schiller, Grand Chancellor, and John Monroe, Scribe.

Freshmen students whose scholarship is superior are eligible for membership, and if their grade standard is maintained throughout the year arc privileged to become permanent members. Due to the efforts of the members a club room has been completely furnished which is equipped with library space and reading facilities. Exhibits of work done by the science students are on display from time to time. Two prizes are offered each semester for the Freshman student having the best science notebook for that term. Upper classmen are able to present interesting material in the club meetings which they learn in the more advanced sciences, and an occasional outside speaker gives the members an idea of the applied phases of science. A distinctive club membership pin has been adopted. The Science Club now consists of the following members new and old: Katherine Webb.

The Chanticleer 1 he Chanticleer, the organ of the school's activities pealed forth its stentmian staccotoes this year under the direction of Mr. Miller and Mr. Chandler. Mr. Miller had charge of the editorial department, and Mr. Chandler had charge of the business department necessary to a school publication. Mr. Sherretz. who had charge of the publication for several years, gave up the post as advisor to Messrs. Chandler and Miller at the close of last year's school term. The Chanticleer has witnessed a comparatively successful season under the new directors, and competent staff of possibly the best fitted and more select students of the school. 1 he sports section which is the biggest portion of the paper was very well taken care of by his Nibs the editor, who has had charge of this section for several years. The feature section of the paper this year was a column of Kommetz” by our own Zuppke, the illustrious Sophomore, who strove manfully and mightily to make his readers laff with him'' and worked so hard at this column that it was a howling success.” One of the features of this column was the weekly poetry written by Poet Zup. The circulation was ably taken care of by Evelyn Nichols and Pearl Peila. The paper this year was mailed every Tuesday. The business end and advertising was taken care of by Lawrence Kneedler. The parties and social gatherings were caught” by Josephine Gauen and Phillip Mann. Virginia Fulenwider had charge of alumni news which she was well able to take care of. Jim Gray, lone Mottershead and George Blanquart got the news and Bob Altman was our cartoonist. Back Row: Mr. Miller (Adviser). George Blanquart. Mr. Chandler (Adviser). Second Row: Jim Gray.

DCSCCWIIIIIIIIIMIIMIIIIIIIIMIII Seventy-twu 7 —i cX ii' iiiiiiniiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiMiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiitxx C The Kahokian The Kahokian has been one of the outstanding features of the Collinsville High School for three years. Last year the annual received an All-American Honor Rating by the National Scholastic Press Association. This high honor was received by only about fifteen high schools in the entire United States. It has been the sincere desire of the staff that the standards set in previous years be surpassed by this edition of the yearbook. George Blanquart was elected Editor-in-Chief by the senior class at a meeting held late in October. The remainder of the staff was chosen by the editor and Mr. Sherretz, the Editorial Advisor. Mr. Rommel was chosen as the Business Advisor and Miss Williams was given charge of the art staff. In this way the work is evenly distributed among the three departments. The subscription list this year shows an increase of seventy-five annuals over last year's number. This means that the Kahokian is showing its worth in the respect that the students find it an instructing book in which they can find unlimited pleasure as they look back over their activities during their years spent in High School. With the increase in subscriptions C. T. H. S. can give to the students a book that will be even better than last year's. Most of us remember when it was a hard proposition to sponsor such a large item as the Kahokian. but now it seems as though it is the expectation of each class to have an annual. The Senior Class with the hearty co-operation of advisors and underclassmen is now able to produce an annual that lives up to the standards of C. T. H. S. Back Row: Leslie Best.

Ralph Cornwell T ruck Q Lawson Flf.tchfr Baseball Assistant Football—Basketball Coach Cornwell Eight years in the service of C. T. H. S. has marked Mr. Cornwell as a prominent figure of the school. Since he took hold of the track work the Kahoks have been growing sturdily in that sport. With the addition of the track on the new athletic field better balanced teams are assured for the future. Coach Fletcher Mr. Fletcher, '22, returned to his old school this year and has proved to be just the person for the position. He served as assistant to Coach Larson in football and basketball while he assumed charge of the basketball light weight squad and the baseball team. Coach Sherretz Mr. Sherretz has spent five years with the tennis teams of Collinsville. So amazingly has tennis been developed in that time that the record of wins exceeds nine hundred per cent. In 1926 and 1928 the doubles team won the conference championship and so close have other teams come to the title that only one match hindered them for the honor on three other occasions. Coach Larson Collinsville High is proud of its Athletic Director. W. O. Larson. His fifth year continues to mark him as an active and efficient director. What he has done to put Collinsville in the limelight is indeed great, for we have ranked far above the other conference schools in the various sports. i Ransom Sherretz Tennis Willard I.arson Football—Basketball r—J— I—i-'-U'-L---- Seventy-eight licicxaiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiH Cheer Leaders 1928 Lawrence Kneedler has been the chief cheer leader of C.

Phillip Mann is another pep leader ranking next to Lawrence but new at the game. Phil, a senior and a member of the Razzers. became Larry's partner in the task of keeping the spark alive. Phil and Larry” were assisted by Pearl Peila and lone Mottershead, also Seniors and cheer leaders for the last two years. Football Manager 1928 Although only a Sophomore. Norman Best was accepted as manager of the football team. His duties from running errands to applying a delicate artistic swing of a whitewash brush on signs on the sidewalk, and everything but playing in the games. “Danny could be seen industriously involved in his tasks. Basket Ball Manager 1929 This year's manager of basket ball was selected as none other than diminutive Tony Klobuchar. a Junior. Tony took such an interest in the affairs of the sport that things went humming about the gym. Although the task embraces a vast expanse of duties, yet Tony, possessing a systematic ability to handle affairs easily encountered them.

The Kahoks fell slightly below their average on account of ill luck staring in all directions. But in spite of the frequent interruptions that came just at the wrong moments, the team finished third in the conference standing. Granite City and East Side taking the lead. Also the Larsonmen accomplished a task that had not occurred for three years, that is, they walloped Edwardsville. This victory proved that the Kahoks had a powerful offensive and defensive force and were worthy of praise. The beginning of the season opened with a non-conference tilt with Litchfield on the new athletic field of C. T. H. S. Last year's Kahoks tied the opponents in a slow grilling game, but this year's score was slightly lower. The Indians played an exciting game which was chuck full of fumbles and hard luck which brought on the loss. It was only after the half that the Kahoks succeeded in bringing about a score. Final score Litchfield 1 8, Collinsville 7. The next Saturday the warriors journeyed to Gillespie to engage in the second non-conference game. This contest also was not successful due to the breaking up of the plays and of evil luck which constantly perplexed the Indians. In the first two quarters the opponents were weakened, but the last half the Kahoks gave to Gillespie. Musso scored in the last quarter with McWhirter kicking the extra point. When the final whistle blew, the score read 19-7. So far these games served only as practice not counting in the conference. The first conference game was pulled off with East Side on the new field. When the game broke loose the Orange and Blue possessed more stamina in going down the gridiron, but this was not allowed to continue. George Musso, husky Kahok Captain, fought unusually desperate to save the game from the hands of the aggressors. In several instances he brought the team to a favorable position for a touchdown when a fumble or intercepted pass occurred to quench the plans. Musso himself gave an exhibition when he intercepted a pass and brought the ball to the 20-yard line, but a fumble netted the ball to East Side, who later gained Owen Moore Owen Kitchen Kermit Eckart r—-j —r—r -—r —'T-— W-n —J liul.ly tiuo )Ccxaiiiniiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiuiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii[ cx C a touchdown. In the last quarter Bailey and Musso resorted to passes as a safer plan, but it was too late. The final score was 6-0. But the next Saturday the tide had turned. The tribesmen took their first game of the season from Wood River in one of the most thrilling and lively games of the season. The first few plays dispersed the enemy so that Bailey's rifled pass safely reached Musso who raced 30 yards for a touchdown. McWhirter contributed the extra point with a perfect dropkick over the goal. In the second quarter after Musso was removed, Collinsville swayed with open gaps which looked dangerous. The next half a Wood River player was seen to block a kick and run for his goal. The extra point was made to balance the score. But the Kahoks wouldn't allow any more of this. They fought harder yet when Shimkus recovered the pigskin. Bailey then powerfully crashed through on two line plunges to score another six points. When the decisive whistle blew C. T. H. S. possessed 14 points to the Oil City’s 7. A week later Belleville called to oppose the Larson warriors who were now on the right track to the top. The Maroon and White could barely withstand the powerful plunges of the Indians. They took to hurling long passes down the field, two of which proved effective. Edward Bailey, Kahok quarterback, showed remarkable playing ability when he gained an 80-yard run and scored a touchdown, besides running back punts and tearing up clays. Beckman also responded well in the backfield where he caught a pass and sidestepped to a touchdown. Capt. Musso was by no means inactive either. With his robust figure he virtually dismantled the Belleville line, tearing through and leaving it lifeless, after tallying six more points. Another bright light was Klobuchar. an able-bodied yard gainer and born fighter, who added the remaining tally. The Kahoks sum points were 27 to their foe's 12. But when the Granite game came the Kahoks were dispossessed of all vigor and vim that was essentially needed. Musso made repeated attempts to rouse and spur the Indians forward. His efforts in the second quarter gave him the only Paul Klobuchar Leo Shimkus Arthur Borsch Walter McWhirter iimmiimmiiiiiii r r --f—r —r- Eighty-four -v- —i—-1 _r- j— George Musso (Captain) Everett Beckman touchdown. The line and backfield for some reason failed to properly function in unison, while Granite held to tricky pass combinations which remained unbreakable. Before the game ended Collinsville was under a 43-7 score. Then came the long-waited-for game, Edwardsville. the most fierce of all rivals in the conference, arrived at the field in hopes of tamping the Indians. The Kahoks were overanxious for revenge and got it, when the Larsonmen crushed the Orange and Black. From the beginning to the end of the game the Kahoks outplayed their conquered foe in championship style. In the first quarter Bailey was given the oval which he carried on a glorious sprint of 65 yards to a touchdown. Judikinas tallied the extra point. Play after play followed when Bailey accurately tossed a speeding spiral to Musso for another score. In the second half the walloping continued as Eckart, Lineman, succeeded in blocking a punt, recovering the ball, and running for another six points. In the last quarter substitutes entered the game to compete the havoc of 25-2. The game was largely attended and vastly enjoyed especially by the Kahok rooters. Edwardsville returned devoid of a scalp accredited to the Indians. Then came the final football contest of the season. The Kahoks tracked Alton to their home grounds and there, after a prolonged battle, emerged victorious. In the first half of the game both teams see-sawed back and forth without scoring. although the tribesmen were gradually gaining the field. It was not until the second half that they couldn't be held. Frequent line plunges weakened the Altonian line so that Quarterback Bailey couldn’t be held from tearing through and scoring. Ill luck, fumbles, breaks and what not restrained the Kahoks from further scoring. But such fierce and hard fighting that the warriors performed, netted them a more vast territory only to be unwillingly lost by the forfeiture of the oval. When the game ended the Kahoks were seen in possession of the ball on Alton's 10-yard line and they would probably have scored had the game continued. C. T. H. S. had 6 to Alton's 0.

Basketball, 1928-29 Soon after the football season, Larson s call for proteges responded with several Iettermen and others experienced in this line. I he team was soon organized into a powerful aggregation that must receive recognition. For only on a streak of ill luck did the Kahoks finally lose out in the District Tournament to Livingston after walking away with the Conference Championship. T he downfall came just when the Kahoks were on the path to victory. The season opened with several games played in December, all of which proved exciting and easily conquered. The Greenville cagers managing to put up the best thrills, though losing 23-21. It was the same rival that later inflicted a wound to the Indian foemen. Near the end of December, the swift Mt. Vernon five parceled a defeat to the seemingly pepless Kahoks in a slow and dull game 21-14. But such had to impair the schedule. Bob Gauen starred on the tilt, making one-half the Kahoks' score. But then came the games which set the Braves ahead in the standing. Granite, Wood River, Belleville and East Side, alike succumbed to the death blows dealt by the Indians on their rampage for victory. The splendid functioning of Capt. Klo-buchar's men enabled them to soar ahead and leave the lightweights to complete the devastation. Eckart, Kahok center, was depended upon for most points. Edwardsville, Webster Groves and Alton also failed to rock the Warriors. The tigery fierceness characteristic of the Orange and Black was easily quenched by a 43-16 victory. Bailey, Klobuchar and Mac” were branded for their effective playing. But the good luck ceased and the tables turned when the Granite Steel Workers administered a striking defeat on the home floor. It was the second game lost in the season, that upset the warriors. Score 22-34. Walter -McWhirter Everett Beckman iOCJCCliiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiim I jp -r—x—-r -T 111— The last defeat was taken seriously and revenge came sweet in Wood River and Belleville tilts. The Kahoks easily defeated both teams and practically cinched the Conference Championship as only East Side and Edwardsville remained to subdue. The game was played by the Seniors only. A week later the Kahoks met East Side on the enemies' territory and there engaged in the most exciting and crucial game of the season. The fine playing of the Indian five managed to squeeze ahead by one point, 27-26. It was a close call for the Warriors. Then came the victory. Collinsville won the Southwestern Illinois Athletic Conference Championship, for the third time in succession by roundly trouncing the Tigers 31-13. It was the last home game of the conference. On meeting Greenville, the Kahoks were forced to take the lower part of a 34-16 score, not being able to find the basket. Then in the District Tourney at Edwardsville, the Kahoks resumed their peppy opposition by utterly scalping Alton 43-17, and then Madison 28-19 in a lively game full of thrills. But afterwards the Kahoks were surprisingly upset when Livingston slashed the hopes of tourney honors, by one point, 14-13. Granite City won the elegibility to enter for the Sectional Tourney. Livingston took second, while Collinsville placed third. The defeat of the Kahoks marked disappointment in the hearts of the students, but the team did its best and did very well. Those who played their last games are Capt. Pete Klo-buchar, forward: Walter McWhirter, forward: Kermit Eckart. center: George Musso, guard, and Theron Dieu, guard. Next year's prospects look promising with Bailey, Kitchen. Bozzardi, Gauen, Beckman and Martin, all of whom have seen action in the games.

Ninety-one Basketball League Tournament Near the end of the football season, a basketball tournament between the boys of the different classes was scheduled in the gymnasium. In each class two equal teams were selected (excluding lettermen) to compete in the tourney. The different teams were named after different makes of automobiles to distinguish each other and have a simple calling. The Freshmen were branded Fords and Chevrolets: the Sophomores, Pontiacs and Nashes: the Juniors, Buicks and Chryslers: and the Seniors. Cadillacs and Packards, respectively. The teams in the race were so evenly matched that hard fighting and lively games were staged each night. From the beginning the Seniors were doped to carry off the honors, but were finally nosed out at the end. each winning four games and losing two. In the contest the Fords took two games while the corresponding Chevies had no games accredited to their won list. The Junior Buicks and Chryslers were stronger, having nearly an equally balanced standing. The Sophomore Nashes were weak, winning only one game, as compared to their fellow Pontiacs, who finally reached the pinnacle of victory, losing only one game, 14-10, to the Senior Cadillacs. Each class though offered strong opposition and fought their hardest as is characteristic of the Kahok teams. In each of the six games taken by the victors large predominating scores marked the strength and aggressiveness of the team. They were experienced, fast and accurate, cinching nearly every tilt with a fine exhibition of offensive opposition, one of the advantages. On the team were: Hildreth, forward: Moore, forward: Jack, center: Allan, guard, and Jesaitas. guard. Substitutes were Jennings and Krieder. The league in all was under the supervision of Assistant Coach Fletcher and was by far a grand success. League Champions Hack Row: Ray Jennings. Vincent Jesaitis. Coach Fletcher.

Tennis 1928 Tennis is rapidly developing to be one of the school’s best sports. With the courts closely connecting the school and the increasing number of players, there is no reason why tennis should not thrive. With two lettermen. Jadda and Mac” back from last year. Coach Sherretz could build up a promising team. Mac.” the outstanding doubles player, was chosen to be captain of the squad for the season. A bright future seemed to be in view. The first match of the season presented a victory for C. T. H. S. over Mascoutah. Jadda took the singles while McWhirter and Bozzardi likewise took the doubles in championship style 6-0, 6-0. Although this was not a conference game it served to “tune up the Kahoks. Next came the Wood River matches. I he Kahoks, inspired by previous games, had little trouble in parceling out a tamping to their adversaries.” Again the singles and doubles teams displayed such ease and skill that they seemed impenetrable at times. The next conference match was played with East Side, on the home courts. In this game Gillaspy fell easy prey to Smith in the singles 6-1, 6-4. But the doubles team seemingly had little opposition. They defeated their opponents badly by a 6-0. 6-0 score. Another singles match was played by Bob. Gauen. a freshman, who showed skill and accuracy in winning his match. A second non-conference match was again scheduled with Mascoutah. As done before, the locals took the singles and doubles matches and left nothing but a striking defeat to their antagonists. About the end of April, the McKendree tournament rolled into view. Twenty-seven schools from Illinois and Missouri competed. In the singles, Gauen won the first game from O’Fallon easily, but gave way before Lebanon. Gillaspy also started out victorious, winning three straight matches from East St. Louis. Breeze and Lebanon, finally submitting to Greenville. The two whom they lost Walter McWhirter Captain Ninety-four CCCClllltlllllllllllllllllilllllliiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii ROBERT GAUEN to entered the finals against each other. McWhirter and Bozzardi advanced so far as to cinch second place. This brought them silver medals for their efforts. Then came a rush. Three matches were played in one week. Edwardsville called Monday. May 8. to oppose the locals. In this game Gaskill allowed Skill. Edwardsville’s main output, to inflict a deadly wound. The doubles though were taken in a snappy, easy game, meeting with practically no resistance. It meant another game—another victory adding to the championship. The following Wednesday. Sparta offered resistance. McWhirter showed that he could play equally as good in the singles by disposing of McChire. Gauen lost a thrilling and exciting set fighting hard in a long battle. 1 1-9. 6-3. Gaskill and Bozzardi insisted on the doubles. On Saturday. Greenville took the singles from Gauen and Gaskill. but discovered that the doubles game belonged to the Kahoks. The doubles subdued the Altonites while Gaskill lost to Savage. Conference singles champion. Granite was easily defeated by the on-rushing doubles combination. but Gauen lost a hard match in the singles. Credit must be given to the Kahoks' doubles team who were especially successful, so far not losing a conference match. Belleville also had a fine team that had not been beaten so a clash was inevitable. The bitterly contested battle was fought on the home courts with Sauer and Hirth. who took the first set, 4-6: but the f Kahoks never yielded nor lost hope. Game after game was triumphantly won by the Indians until finally the fighting affair ended by the warriors seizing both remain-ing sets to win the championship and end the season. Near the end of May, Coach Sherretz took his victorious team to Urbana to compete in the State Tourney. The Kahoks lost to Peoria after winning from Indianola and Lyons High of Chicago. Surprisingly. Greenville, whom the Kahoks had defeated twice, won the tournament. So certainly C. T. H. S. may be classed as having one of the best doubles combinations in Illinois.

S. Never before has the school organized a better and larger team. Under Coach Cornwell the spring sport has rapidly developed into a fine and interesting one and will continue to. Early in the spring a team was organized around Musso and Merrill, last year lettermen, for the season. The trackmen were good material with plenty of ability an d full of life. The first wind of the season brought the Kahoks to Edwardsville in a dual cinder meet. Lack of experience in the sport and lack of a decent track handicapped the locals to a great extent. The Orange and Black fairly outclassed the Kahoks, taking eleven first places to the Indians' one. This one first was captured by Musso, who far surpassed his opponents in the javelin heaving contest by breaking the conference record several feet. Merrill and Walters were contenders for second and third places, respectively. The Indians failed to score in the 220-yard hurdles, 440-yard dash and the relay, but they took more second and third places than Edwardsville in the other events. The final score showed the Kahoks on bottom 74 to 38. At the end of the same week came the triangular meet with Wood River and Granite City at the latter place. In this meet the Kahoks tallied only 28 points, falling behind to Wood River, who gained 41 points, and to Granite City, who headed the list with 62. Musso, the support of the team, made 13 of the Kahoks total, capturing three firsts, the discus throw, shot put and javelin. Albert Rachun displayed his ability by taking a third in the discus and in the shot put. Merrill and Walters again took second and third in the javelin throw. Other Kahoks who contributed to the score were Hayden, third in the mile: Shelton, third in the half-mile: Thompson, second in the 440-yard dash: Adomaitis, third in the broad jump, Lenial Gamble III III IIII11II11 III 111II lllll III III III Ninety-eight and Musso. third in the low hurdles. T he meet as a whole indicated an improvement in the Kahoks who were gradually regaining their footing in spite of some ill luck. The next Saturday, Coach Cornwell took the squad to Washington University, there to participate in events against other schools. The Kahoks received 1 7 points and tied St. Louis University High for fourth place. Musso again starred, tramping away with first place in the javelin throw. Merrill and Shelton contributed to the final score also. The last meet of the season was staged at Granite City by schools of the Southwestern Illinois Conference. Ed-wardsville took the championship, while the Kahoks were awarded with fourth place. This last meet was the most exciting and thrilling in years. Out of the thirteen events nine records were shattered, excluding the javelin throw, discus, the shotput, and the broad jump. Musso allowed Snadjr of Edwardsville to take first in the javelin by a poor toss of 160 feet. Musso, however, saw the danger and retaliated for his poor throwing by clinching a first in the discus and second in the shotput. Merrill captured first in the low hurdles and Shelton finished fourth in the mile event to form the total of the Kahoks’ 1 8 points. At the district meet at Granite City, Musso won the right to represent this school in the javelin throw at the State meet, where with a poor throw he placed fourth. During the whole season it can be seen that the Kahoks lacked experience and that they were slightly weak in some respects, nevertheless the standing of the school was increased, as well as the growing interest in the sport. The Kahok trackmen who earned points were Musso, javelin, shotput, discus: Merrill, javelin, low hurdles: Walters, javelin; Rachun. shotput, discus: Thompson. 440-yard dash, relay: Shelton, mile run: Hayden, mile run; Adomaitis, broad jump: Marco, low hurdles.

The Kahoks are represented as on or near the top in the conference standing every year. Last spring's Indians in no way lowered this standing, but were obliged to tie for the championship. The season opened with a powerful bat-breaking victory for the Tribe when they defeated Wood River 13 to 4. Martishus, the Kahok hurler, kept the Oil City crew at bay throughout the game, while Merrill and Captain Boken led the swatters to easy victory. The victorious Indians next journeyed to Belleville only to involve in a compact game. The contest depended on Martishus, who put up a pitching duel with Zaber. At times he was topped for singles, which gave Belleville the game. 2-1. It was the first and only game lost. But the Kahoks braced up and were determined to seek revenge. When the Granite game was staged on the home diamond, a hitting rampage was started by Boken, who smashed out two homers, a triple and two singles. Merrill followed with a wallop for the circuit with two on in the third inning. It was a game of run scoring for the locals who piled up 26 runs to their opponents' 10 before the game ended. Then came the climax game. Belleville arrived at the North End diamond in hopes of gaining another victory. But the Kahoks disappointed the Bellevillians by a scalping score of 3-0. Martishus was in fine form, striking out ten i l Stillwell Merrill Stephen Chiado Robert Boken (Captain) One Hundred Two XJ=0C3C]IIIIIIIIIII IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIKX C players and himself slamming out a triple to make his own performance complete. Spagna, Eckart, Klobuchar. and Boken were the only other Kahoks besides Martishus to hit, each hitting out a triple. This was the game the Indians waited for to retaliate. The victory put Collinsville into a tie for first place in the conference standing. While the Kahoks were on the winning path another game was staged with Wood River the same week. Capt. Boken had no difficulty in again leading his warriors on top. The Kahoks tallied five runs, while their opponents failed to score. At last came the end of the conference season. A game was engaged in with Granite at North End. The Larsonmen found their foe wieldy. They hit a total of 19 hits while Gus pitched well, allowing only 8. In the first two innings ten runs were credited to the Kahoks. This was enough to discourage the Red and Blacks. When the game ended, Collinsville was on top of a 22-6 score. This deadlocked the Kahoks in a tie for the championship with Belleville for the third year. But the Indians showed their hitting attacks by scoring a total of 72 runs for the season while their opponents were held to 22 tallies. Those composing the Kahok aggregation were Klobuchar, first: Merrill and Chiado, second: Spagna, short: Capt. Boken, third: all snappy players. Martishus was the only pitcher on the mound, while Eckart, the efficient catcher, was depended upon in all games. The outfield consisted of Bailey. Judikinas and Paul, equally adept in the game. Such was the 1928 baseball team. £7 Dominick Spagna i V I Edward Bailey � K HR MIT ECKART GUS MARTHISUS ------------ -I----------- One Hundred Three cccailllllllllllllllllllliiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii Baseball scores Collinsville 12 Collinsville 1 Collinsville 26 Collinsville 5 Collinsville 5 Collinsville 23 CONFERENCE Collinsville Belleville Wood River Granite City Wood River ...... 4 Belleville 2 Granite City 10 Belleville 0 Wood River 0 Granite City 6 STANDING Won Lost Per Cent 5 1 .833 5 1 .833 2 4 .334 0 6 .000 Baseball Squad 1928 Back Hou.'

The G. A. A. held a tournament in November, in which the Seniors and Juniors tied for first place. The first game was between the Juniors and Freshmen. The Juniors gave the under classmen a shut-out game, but the Freshies put up a stiff battle and played well for their single season of practice.
