OUR AMERICAN HERITAGE Foreword During the years of free education, the American school system has advanced until it now trains all of us as future citizens of the United States. The clubs—the classes—the sports—they all help us to learn the American democratic way of life. All of us probably will remember this year at school, but the seniors will remember it best because it is their graduation year—the year they have been looking forward to. Those who have learned their lesson of democracy well today, will become the successful citizens of tomorrow. So we hope that these seniors will always look back with pride and with pleasure on their days at Collinsville High School. 4 Contents TITLE PAGE 2 FOREWORD 4 CONTENTS 5 BOARD OF EDUCATION 6 DEDICATION 8 ADMINISTRATION 10 Deans 12 Office Staff 13 FACULTY 14 CLASSES 24 Senior Class 26 Junior Class 44 Sophomore Class 50 Freshman Class 5 8 CLUBS 64 SPORTS 90 FEATURES 104 5 These are citizens selected by the votes of fellow citizens for the all-important job of formulating policy for one of the biggest businesses in our land—our schools.

He has taught United States History to many hundreds of students, and is himself a splendid example of Americanism. He instills in his students an understanding and appreciation of the privilege of citizenship in this great land. And so, we pay tribute, in this small way, to Mr. Heinecke for his kindness and sincerity, and hope that many more students will have the benefit of his knowledge of our American heritage. ★ ★★★★★★★★★★★★★★ Edwin C.

It is not a farewell to teachers as they will continue to watch your progress and be proud of your achievements. Yours is not a farewell to classmates and friends because you will continue to maintain friendly interests and exchange occasional greetings though you may be many miles apart. Your diploma conveys best wishes from your community—it invites you to participate more fully and serve with a greater loyalty in those citizenship activities which need your assistance. Our wishes for you are rather bon voyage and au revoir, since your ship of state is embarking upon new horizons, with additional opportunities, and an extension of your experiences in your journey through life. Our earnest desires are that you utilize your achievements from high school and combine these with your abilities to make you successful in doing your part to make this a better world. — .

Very soon they are going to take their places as citizens of the United States. What contribution will they make to the history of our country? Perhaps a look at their past achievements will help us in deciding what may be expected of them. As we glance at their record, we see 46 that this class is outstanding in all phases of regular school life. Although this Junior Class is comparatively small in number, it has a very good percentage on the Honor Roll each six weeks. Yet, using nothing but grades to determine the capabilities of the members of this class would be unfair. They take a very active part in all school activities. Many organizations at C. H. S. have elected Juniors to office. Many Junior boys and girls participate in various sports. The Junior Class Council, with the help of its capable sponsors, Miss Miller and Miss Baldridge, worked steadily to present the beautiful and truly successful Coronation. Miss Betty Short was the chosen representative of the Junior Class. The efforts of this same hard-working Council were responsible for the wonderful decorations at the Prom.

Last year, under the title of Freshmen, they had a very successful year but this year they outdid themselves. At the end of the first six weeks we had a considerably large number on the honor roll. Four sophomores, Bob Henry, Gant Redmon, Doug Elliot and Duke Bailey, saw some varsity action during football season. Next on the agenda of the activities of the • sophomores came the project of making money for the year, a home-made candy sale. This proved to be very well organized and helped boost our financial standings. Basketball season came before we knew it and 52 — Sop fo mo res Jim Flagg and Bob Schaulat were given several opportunities to show their talents in varsity games. Of course the better half of the Junior varsity, Donald Cooper, Ronnie Langreder, Tony Massa, Gant Redmon, David Folmer, and Jack McWhirter, are also proud to be members of the Sophomore Class. While on the subject of basketball you can’t forget that two of the senior cheerleaders, Lois Welch and JoAnn Blankenship were in the class of ’5 5.

With the total enrollment reaching the new high of three hundred and six, we were the largest class in the school. We entered a whirl of school activities by attending the Freshman Dance sponsored by the Student Council. Thereafter we took an active part in all school affairs. We labored earnestly at our studies, with quite a few making the Honor Roll, but all trying. We hope that in future years we will credit C. H. S. just as the alumni before us have always done. We will do this by entering into 60 Jyesf imen all school projects and by supporting our school, to keep up its good name. Ahead of us are three years of hard work. But this work is necessary because it will attain our future goal which is Graduation Day. With this work will also be pleasures. These years in high school will be the happiest years of our lives, and a time we shall never forget. The basic year is now behind us, and we shall begin to take courses that will help us with the careers we have chosen. Many will go to college and to do this we must and shall gain all the knowledge we can the next three years. We wish to become better citizens in these three years also. Back Row—Adams, E.

CLUBS 66 In our American schools, democracy is more than just an empty term whose characteristics we know but never get to apply prior to adulthood. Our clubs afford the opportunity for us to put democracy to work. We select our officers, we have the right of expression and accept or reject plans as the majority chooses. Each group has its adult sponsor to direct and encourage their efforts, but never to dictate or dominate. We feel that these organizations prepare us for good citizenship and introduce us to the obligations of leadership and service in adult society. 67 Cafeteria Staff ★ ★ Each day of the school year students storm the cafeteria in two shifts of almost five hundred each. As we arrive, we thoughtlessly step up to the cashiers’ cages and order our supply of lunch tickets; we pro- Server Pat Cunningham ceed through the line, are served and, after eating, Checker Marian Fletcher take our used dishes to the service counter.

Every member has his own job to do but besides his assigned job he also has to help operate the concession stand at athletic events—the profit thus earned is applied toward financing the publication from year to year.

The value of athletics is not lost even if one is not an active participant, because as a spectator one must be a good sport and fair judge. To us Americans, sports are big business and pastime; to high school athletes and the people of our community, the school athletic program is pleasure which oftimes leads to careers or scholarship opportunities in the higher educational institutions. 91 This year’s version of the football Kahoks compiled a very successful record of 6 wins and 3 losses. They had good all around strength and could cope with almost any situation that came up during the course of the season. They compiled several firsts during the season. The Kahoks were the first team to score against East Side. They also defeated two teams that were previously undefeated.

Coach Fletcher received the compliment of the finest high school basketball coach in the state of Illinois. Coach Paul, in his first year of coaching in Collinsville won the Gillespy Tournament and brought home the second place trophy from the Belleville Tourney. We salute the fine coaches of C. H. S. Giacoletto, Capecchi, Buel, Schaulat, Eckart, Harris, Hanvey, Sonncnberg, Klobuchar, Renfro, Maack, Pellin, Coach Fletcher, Coach Paul. Coach Fletcher, Coach Paul ★ ★ ★ Basketball Where would our athletic teams be without the little praised managers? This year’s managers: Earle Bitzer, Bill Allan and Walter Sonnenberg, all did a very fine job of satisfying the needs and desires of coaches and players alike. They were always in the right places at the right times. The coaches were justly proud of this year’s athletic managers.

At ease in all games, he plays his center position capably.

This year they were under a new coach. Since last year’s team was almost all seniors, Coach Davisson had to start practically from scratch. He is expecting a fine baseball team next year. Their goal is to equal that of the 1941 team, and win the state championship in the next year or two. Since many of the first team were freshmen and sophomores we are sure that they will reach their goal. Best wishes to Coach Davisson’s teams.

Some of them were playing in a baseball game for the first time, still they made very fine showings. Coach Davisson, our new coach, is very enthusiastic about the Junior Varsity’s future. He is sure that they will develop into a very fine varsity in a year or two.

Cross-Country____________________★ ★ ____________ These are the fellows who may be seen in any kind of Fall weather trotting doggedly over hills and dales. These long distance runners are building muscles and stamina for basketball and track in the later months. Cross-country this year was not too successful. Russel Semanisin was the individual leader of the team. He won almost every race he ran in. The Kahoks have a fine nucleus of a team coming back next year and the outlook for the future is a very promising one for us. 102 Autographs 103 104 We Americans are an odd lot in that we profess great admiration for simplicity and equality. But, given a chance, we will make every effort to out-do ourselves in pomp and grandeur. We have a failing for singling out individuals to glorify and cherish. The compensating feature is that no one can force his way into our affections. We direct our admiration freely and whole-heartedly. Following, are pages to demonstrate our love of show” and individuals who have earned the admiration of their fellows. 105 Football Queen Miss Georgia Karnages 106 At eight-thirty in the evening on Saturday, November 22, a hushed crowd awaited the arrival of the football queen and her court of four lovely maidens. After the entrance of the retiring queen, Miss Joan Landwehr, the beautifully poised representatives of the four classes appeared in turn. Each was escorted by a member of the football squad, and each was received with obvious approval. Following the entry of the special maid of honor to the queen, all eyes eagerly awaited the arrival of Miss Georgia Karnages, reigning queen of the 1952-53 football season. This honor was one much deserved, for Georgia has been an outstanding citizen of our school since her freshman year. Her enthusiasm and friendly manner have won the admiration of the school and community. It is with great pleasure that we present the queen and her court of love and beauty. Long live the Queen.” 107 Football Maids. ☆ Good Citizenship Girl Mary Ann Drost This year’s good citizenship awards from the D. A. R. and S. A. R. to graduates were voted to these two outstanding students. Mary Ann and Ken have gone through their four years, leading scholastically and socially. Never was an assignment—either academic or otherwise—delegated to them, that it was not executed with alacrity and precision. Always self-effacing, their cap- 110 ☆ Qood Citizenship Boy Ken Buel ability was nonetheless so apparent, that when the time came for the students and teachers to arrive at their choices for the awards, Ken and Mary Ann were very promptly chosen. The honor of receiving the award far outshines any prize that may be given, but by their selection they become eligible for a one hundred dollar cash prize. It is with sincere pleasure that we salute these outstanding citizens of C. H. S. 111 The Coronation Ceremony Coronation Scene The Student Council this year inaugurated a program designed to awaken the students to the desirability of courtesy. After a two-week drive to promote an interest in good manners, students and faculty selected a boy and girl who were particularly thoughtful and considerate. Then at a big Valentine’s Day Dance the couple was crowned and the guests honored them with approving applause and shared the pleasure of their triumph at the dance. May their example prove an incentive for all to cultivate better manners at all future time. 113 p1 ,l™ Lucia Hadley .Friendliest, Toy Cooper Bill Muehlhauser Rex Thompson ★ ★ ★ Best Dressed Lucia Hadley Earle Bitzer ★ ★ -- Best 1 po Ginnie Lee Holten Rex Thompson 115 Ronnie Medder, our Chief Kahok, is one of the most outstanding dancers in Illinois.
