H. S., we set up a certain routine of living that is followed habitually from clay to clay. We want the events of these days to remain as vivid memories to usi so we present in our view section the typical Stuclent's Day. We start the day with a heady brealcfasti then on to school. Here we meet our friends ancl hold small sessions in the halls before bell-time. Alter a morning of classes, we are eager to get to lunch. More afternoon classesf then we're free to enjoy the rest of the day in various ways. Getting our lessons completes our usual busy day. 1 i , --Avwfqgf , , . , , ,K :Q , W - ' 'Z 5: 4 1 f m v em E EL Q-K , - .f..

R. vqwwul Every year an outstanding girl is selected from the senior classes to be honored with the award bestowed by The National Society of the Daughters of the American Revolution. The winner of this state wide contest, selected by a drawing from re- presentatives of each high school in Illinois, will be sent on a sight-seeing tour to Washington, D. C., with all expenses paid. The candidates selected by the June and Midyear classes were: Betty Lou Stoune, Marilyn Aulabaugh, and Virginia Tremple. From the three girls, the faculty chose Betty Lou to represent Decatur high school. Basis for selection included merit in depend-V ability, honesty, activity, and leadership. Betty Lou is a member of National Honor Society and of A Cappella choir. She has been active in the in the affairs of the June senior class, serving as 'secretary and as chairman of the social committee. She was also chosen for a leading part in the senior play, and has appeared in numerous smaller plays and? programs. She is a member of The Observer sta Below Betty Lou's picture are those of Marilyn Aulabaugh and Virginia Tremple, runners-up in the D. A. R. award Contest. i9-06 Many WL Qaencia Nwwula This year, Jerry Rofenberg, president of National Honor Society, and lN'lollie Bence, co-business mana- ger of the Decanois, were chosen from the senior class for the lN'I'ary VV.'FI CI1Cl'l Awards. jerry received the first award and lylollie received the second award at the June commencement exercises. Comparable to the valedictory, the French honors are chosen by a faculty committee composed of the principal, the deans, and the department heads. lVIiss French, for forty years a member of the Deca- tur High School faculty, presented 591,000 to the school to make possible these awards. She stipulated that those honored must have achieved more than high scholastic standing. They must have served the school in some outstanding manner, they must have been good and loyal citizens of the school, and they must have been active in school organizations. To those Decatur citizens who knew and admired Miss French, these winners of the French awards hold very special interest. bliss French lived to see many boys and girls receive her gift. Besides being president of the National Honor Society this year, Jerry is a member of the senior class scholarship committee and was also in the cast of the senior class play. During his sophomore and junior years, he was active in the student council, the Decatur Schools' lNrIilitary Training Corps, and was on the business staff of the Decanois. Jerry also served as vice-president of the Spanish Club. Mollie Bence was co-business manager of this year's Decanois, having served on the staff for three years. In her junior year she was club editor. She was a member of the National Honor Society and acted as discol this year. lVIollie served as home room secretary and as a member of the sophomore coun- cil during her sophomore year. She was active in the girls? glee club and served as vice-president and as president of advanced girls' choir. lvlollie was also a member of the cast of the Gilbert and Sullivan light opera, H. NI.

VVhat will this new era bring? All of us have some idea of what kind of world we want to create for ourselves and posterity. In each plan for a better world, peace is the reigning force. But if we have not peace within ourselves, it is vain to seek it from out- ward sources. The only way we can attain peace within ourselves is by setting a goal before us and never ceasing our effort until we reach that goal. The goal that the people of the United States have set before' them is that of a world organization that will above all maintain peace in the world. Perhaps that goal seems impossible. However, we must remember that no goal is too high and that nothing is impossible if we have hope and faith. Never should we quail before the magnitude of the task of preserving peace. The world is made up of continents, the continents of nations, the nations of individuals. Thus ever one of us, can be held re- sponsible for the way the world functions. It is our duty to know what kind of world we want. Then it is our duty to establish that kind of world. The world organization labeled the Dumbarton Oaks plan provides for a security council composed of five permanent powers and six rotating powers and a general assembly composed of all the peace- loving nations in the world. From the council and assembly branch smaller groups. The intent of these subsidiary organizations is to keep problems from rising to such an importance that they have to be taken before the security council and general assembly. Public opinion will guide these groupsg so let us be sure that our personal opinions are based on actual fact and knowledge. Europe is hungry and tired. Its lands have been ravaged and bombed. Are we, who have been rela- tively untouched by war, to feast while they are starving? Thinking of ourselves as a part of the world, we must assume the responsibilit of helping clothe and feed its devastated parts. If' this world organization in which we will participate is to suc- ceed, all nations should combine their resources in an international program of rehabilitation. Tolerance is one of the cogs in the wheel called peace that also cannot be omitted. Shelley once said, It is not a merit to be tolerant, but rather a crime to be intolerant. By discriminating against various races, nationalities, and creeds, we are de- feating the very purpose of a world organization. All men are created of equal worth under Godg all men are created in the image of God. Who are we to defy God? We should show tolerance also to the conquered nations of the world, .for if our goal becomes revenge, all hope for peace is lost. 1 In peace planning all countries ever where must cease striving for a balance of power. This is an out- growth of nationalism. Emery Reves in his book The Anatomy of Peace states that war is caused not by social, racial, religious, or economic differ- ences but by differences stimulated in separate sovereign nations. In other words, wars are caused by nationalism. He points out that throughout his- tory wars between social units cease the moment sovereign power is transferred from them to a higher unit. We are proud of the United States and the freedom for which it stands. VVe respect our tradi- tions and pay tribute to our leaders. On the whole we love our country. However, we will have to in- crease our scope and think in terms beyond just our country. We must not think merely in national terms, but in international terms. No matter what plan was devised for a world organization, each delegate to the various confer- ences knew that no plan could succeed without the wholehearted support of the peoples of the world. VVhether or not we agree or disagree with each item in the plan, we must support the whole program because so far it is the only concrete step that has been taken to establish any kind of world organiza- tion. With the backing of all, the organization can get on its feet. Once it is on its feet, we can help-it mature into something permanent. Likewise, our own American government had trouble getting started. The various states wanted to retain their sovereignty, and many peo le be- lieved that a union of states was impossible. Nlbw our union of the United States is of a permanent nature, and we have proved to the world that a combina- tion of sovereign states is not impossible. There are two kinds of people in the world, the realists and the idealists. We must be realists in the sense that we do not forget to be practical, but we must be idealists in the sense that we always want a little more and always reach a little higher for it. The realist gets nothing more than he expects, but the idealists, in an attempt to attain perfection, will be able to move one ste upward. Perhaps we can never have a perfect worljd organization, but in ever striving to make it perfect, we will at least have a strong organization. In this hour of world distress, we need to form a philosophy. We need to knowjust what we are trying to do, what our purpose is in life, and what our goal is. Those who have found a philosophy will be able to take their place in the eaders ip of this new era. They, in turn, are duty- bound to educate the rest of the world in lines of peace, so that they, too, can form a. philosophy. We, graduating tonight, are representative of all youths in America, and we face the future with optimism. We know that the hope for the future rests on us, and thus we resolve that with God's help we will make this dream of The Kind of World We Want into a reality.

Mrs. Inez Bender, formerly a member of the Decatur school board and one of the foremost civic leaders in Decatur's history, gave a sum of money to the school board several years before her death. The interest from this money is divided equally between a boy and a girl from each year's senior class and is presented to them at the June commencement exercises. Each contestant for these honors is judged upon citizenship, ability to deliver a public address, and upon an ori inal essay about Abraham Lincoln. Mrs. Bender's gift is a memorial to her father who was a great admirer of Lincoln. In the 1946 contest, Dorothy Hays placed second for the girls while Dan Banner received this position for the boys. 29435 IV Jfonoa Sacielg Again this year the Society's outstanding function was the sale of Government Savings Stamps and Bonds. The staff of bool-:keepers and Discols handled the orders on Tuesdays and the distribution of stamps and bonds and the collection of money on Thursdays. They were assisted in this by the propaganda and statistics committees. New members were inducted into the Society at an informal mid-year ceremony held in Room 320 be- fore the entire senior class.

The club's name, Comita Latina, means Latin assembly and was used by the Romans as a name for their public gatherings at which the people held their elections. The informal meetings held every Tuesday under the guidance of Miss Mclntire, consisted of reading Latin plays and stories, playing Roman games, singing songs that have been translated into Latin, and giving special reports on the Roman way of life. These activities added more en- joyment and understanding to the study of Latin and gave a clearer picture of the people who originally used the language. Olicers were: president, Christine Mentisg vice-president, Martha Jean Shields, secretary, Georgia Flannigang treasurer, Twila Strocherg and parlia- mentarian, Martha Ward. f9-96 fe eeacfe 4-zancaid Le Cercle Francais is a group of French students who meet to increase their appreciation of the language, customs, art, and culture of France. As in the past, the club is working with the American Relief for France in clothing and feeding the needy children of that country. The main project un- dertaken by the club this year was the adoption of the eleven year old French war orphan, Andre Du Pont, of Paris. This f'adoption included the responsibility of sending him two boxes of clothing and food each month for either six months or a year. A great eagerness to help la bonne cause has been shown by all the members and their friends. Two outstanding events of the year were the inspiring Christmas Eve pro- gram and party at the home of jean Clark, and the program of readings and music presented to the Millikixi French Club in the spring.

It is a group of stu- dents who like their study of Spanish and wish to continue it by meeting to- gether one afternoon each week. The meetings were on Tuesday afternoons during eighth hour. The meetings which were conducted in Spanish were varied and quite inter- esting, often providing opportunity for the students to use their knowledge of Spanish. The programs have been discussions and reports on Spanish- American life and customs, talks by persons who have visited in Latin America. Besides learning much, the members have had fun singing, Spanish songs, playing Spanish games, and having a Spanish auction at Christ- mas time. Miss Marie Shuck is the adviser, and the ofiicers for the Brst semester were: Doris Krohn, presidentg John Armstrong, vice-presidentg Jean Loet- terle, secretaryg and Dan Banner, treasurer. l r l 1946 , '7!wla The dramatic club Thalia was or- ganized in 1936.

A. sponsors clubs for groups of girls who wish to find fun and companionship and who want to serve their community. These girls are known nationally as the Girl Reserves. The Girl Reserves. of Decatur high school have formed a club of their own called Try-Y. Their symbol is a circle with an inscribed triangle. The triangle represents the individual, the three sides representing the body, mind, and spirit. The circle stands for the world in which the girl lives. Each girl strives to face life squarely and give her best . The circle of her world is forever being pushed out by the points of her expanding triangle. The irls meet every Wednesday after sciool at the Y. W. C. A. to participate in community projects, plan educational' talks, and take part in various other activities.

Written by John Cecil Holm, this comedy took place in VVinsocki, a boys' school. Hunk, Dutch, and Bud, roommates, asked dates to the annual senior prom. Hunk invited Minerva, and Dutch asked Ethel. Satchel Moyer, of VVin- socki, invited Miss Delaware Water Gap, and Chuck Green, also a student, had a blind date about which he wasn't too pleased. Thinking Bud had asked Helen Schlessinger, his best girl, the other boys were astounded to find he had asked Gale Joy, the movie actress, to the prom. Gale accepted under the influence of Jack, her publicity agent. After he wrote to Helen, and told her he had the grippe, Bud and Gale went to the dance. There were many com- plications involved in getting Gale into the'dance as Helen Schlessinger, the name that Bud had turned ln. Thinking she might comfort Bud, Helen left for Wlinsocki. This brought on nothing but trouble. The other girls, resenting Gale Joy, tried to get even 'with her by ripping her clothes. Learning what had happened because of the movie actress, Dr. Reeber, principal of Winsocki, threatened to expel Bud from school. The boys' room was a mad house as people rushed in and out trying to hide from one another. x Gale and Jack planned to blackmail Reeber with a picture of the principal and Gale in an embrace. Dr. Reeber finally submitted, and Bud and Helen made up. Bud returned to school, and Gale re- ceived a renewed movie contract with the re- sult that the play had a happy ending for all. . .. .J E 3 num p V lm , 153 4 5 . CHARACTERS Dutch Miller .....

This comedy concerns the family of George Antrobus. George, his wife, their two children, and Lily Sabina survive the disasters that one time or other have come to the human race. The first crisis that hits them is to keep from starving and freezing to death from the ice masses in the great ice age. Mr. Antrobus brings home dinosaurs, mammoths, and relatives to feed al- though there isn't enough for the Antrobus family. However, they come through this without much damage. The next ill fate that presents itself is that of the reat flood. Attending a convention of the feathered friends, vertebrates, and invertebrates, the Antro- buses are suddenly confronted with a storm worse than a hurricane. With the one remaining boat in sight they leave this disaster behind them. As the centuries pass they come to their final calamity-the wars. However, at the end of the wars, George Antrobus, his son, and Lily Sabina all arrive home safely. Through all of these ca as the rest of the hurnan race, have survived by the skin of their teeth. tastrophes the Antrobuses, fbacaazoid The cast of The Skin ofOur Teeth included the foll ' ' owing.

Numbering over seventy, this group has been able to reach new heights in working out all types of music compositions. Our main goal of the first semester was to create an outstanding program for our annual Christmas vespers which were presented on Sunday, December 17, 1945. Through the combined efforts of Mr. Noland and the members of the choir, we were able to make our contribution along with the other choirs of the vocal department in presenting an in- spirational service. A Choir members took a great deal of pride in wearing their new dubonnet robes and egg-shell satin stoles for the first time in the annual vespers. A lovely setting was created for the ves ers by an image of stained glass windows and beautifully lighted candelabras. In the boxes on both sides of the stage were true symbols of Christmas, ever reen trees brilliantly decorated with twinkling coqored lights and glittering tinsel. Un Christmas Eve we participated in a mid-night 62 6640, candle lighting service in the First Presbyterian Church. This was a wonderful experience that we will remember. ' Again this year we enjoyed singing some of our favorite Christmas music for the members of the Kiwanis Club and their wives. Also our choir had the pleasure of singing on the program honoring Vito Bertoldo, who was given the Congressional Medal of Honor. Looking toward our spring activities, we prepared music in order to take part in a festival held at Danville in May. We also participated in the Easter sunrise service which is one of the events that make our year com- plete. With so many people working together, social events are a necessity to provide understanding, amiability, and good humor among the members of the choir. A wiener roast provided lots of fun for everyone. After stufiing ourselves with all kinds' of ood things to eat, we tgathered around a glowing Ere to sing all of our old avorites. , We felt very deserving of a Christmas party after having so many successful appearances.

A gift exchange, with Santa Claus handing out all kinds of queer things, and bunches of mistletoe han ing about the room made an evening of fun and laugiter. Plans for the social events and other important matters were in charge of the ofiicers who were, the first semester: president, Gary Floriang vice-presi- dent, Udell Hoftg secretary, Betty Lou Stoune, treasurer, Marilyn Morthland. The second semester ofiicers were: president, Bill johnson, vice-president, Charles Dratwickg secretary, Phyllis Bridgewater, treasurer, Alta Jean Syfertg student leader, Elbert Jordon. Section leaders were chosen by members of the different sections to take care of the music and assist in taking the attendance. Several members of the choir tried out for student leader by directing the group. This was valuable experience and pro- moted interest and co-operation. Every student singing with the a cappella choir must reach certain standards in singing and in con- duct. Thus the people who are members of the choir feel privileged to become a part of this or- Eanization which bears so many fine traditions and olds such a high reputation.

The choir participated in the annual traditional Christmas Vespers by singing several songs with A Choir, and they also had their own numbers. They had several parties so that the students could get ac- quainted with each other. In late fall, a Wiener roast was held in Fairview Park. By the crackling of the wood and the sparkling of the fire, the group gathered together and sang a few numbers for their own enjoyment. Another informal party was given at the Illinois Power and Light Company Club Room in the middle of January. The B ' Choir sang at Woodrow Wilson Junior High School and also at Johns' Hill. They sang with the A Choir at the Sunrise Service Easter morning.

During the Christmas season many songs were learned. With a spring concert in mind, the choir worked on music which included Rolling Down to Rio. and Homeland.

Sue Foltz, Ciney Rich, Dick Allenhjoann Butt, Wade Fielder, Barbara Wilson, Lyle offman, and Dorothy Allen are just a few of the new Sophs. . Let's work hard today, for, who knows, tomorrow we may be seniors. l September 7 Congratulations to the clean-up crew that de- dirted our fair institution during the summer. VVe especially like the auditorium, you can see the size and shape of the walls now. September 10 Miss Fike will direct those unsuspecting souls, who elected it, through a course in German this year. Also, a metal works classroom has been built under the stage of the Kintner iso-this-is-where-you-make those-state-champsl gym. September 1 3 The first back-to-school dance was held tonight.

September 19 Basketball tickets went on sale this morning. Some of the early birds were Tom Hostetler, Bid Roos, and C. H. Logan. A sleepless night was had by all.

' 179 September 27 The class of '46 met in the auditorium to vote on the constitution and nominate ye class officials Ca conservative estimate would be twenty for each officel.

Seen together were Pat Edwards and Dick Keeler, and Mollie Bence and Paul Schumacher. October 2. Town Meetin Discussion Club held its first meet g . .. . . 4 meeting.

Programs were given in home rooms this morning as a send-off to the bond and stamp sales for this year.

One thing Decatur High will remember for years is the way this remarkable gentleman spoke and sang without the P. A. system and was actually heard by everyone. He concluded his program by singing the beautiful Lorcl's Prayer. Then he asked us not to say a word until we were in the halls, and it was so quiet when we walked to first hour class, we could have heard a. pin drop. We won! The Reds skunked Urbana I9-I3.

Heading the class are James Molloy, presi- dent, William Simon, vice-presidentg Pat McCray, secretary, Roger Williams, treasurerg and Richard Anderson, Dick Allen, Bill Prescott, and Art Mur- ray, sergeants-at-arms. Wonder why they need so many sergeants-at-arms? Are we kidding? November 1 7.

Another thought was that even if they weren't a winning team, if they were under a coach that really knew the gridiron sport, that would he a mile- stone along rhe path to get D. H. S. back in the list of top schools in the fall sport. VVith the final game at Bloomington, fans had it firmly in mind that the Reds were under top leadership and had learned the fundamentals of football well, even if the season summary read: won 2, lost 7, tied 1. Sophomores and juniors returning next year will develop into a winning squad under Berkey. September 14: East Aurora 12, Decatur 6 .To open their grid chart the Berkeymen journeyed to meet -a powerful Big team, the East Aurora VVildcars. At the intermission the Reds were leading 6-0 on a touchdown by Bob Hazenfield. The Reds led the foes in first downs 7-3. Making a good account of themselves in front of 8,000 fans were Phil MacFadden, Bob Hoyt, Bernard Weakley, Max Howe, and Tom lvlartin. In the outcome the Cats won, 12-6. Coach Berkey's comment was We have a lor to learn. , September 21: West Frankfort 0, Decatur 0 ' The locals met West Frankfort at the latter's field and battled in a driv- ing rain to a 0-0 tie.

September 28: Mattoon 18, Decatur 0 This was the first home game, and the First Big 12 test of the season, 1 l nd the Nlattoon Green VVave came out the victor, 18-0. The Reds showed a rugged defense, by holding the visitor to 3 counters, rut were weak on the badly needed offense. Tom Martin did a magnifi- BOB HOYT ent job of knocking down aerials. Bob Stauber showed rugged determi- ation as he and Gary Florian plunged hard and heavy in line play. October 5: Oak Park 59, Decatur 0 A hard-charging, well-coached Oak Park eleven ran wild over the Reds mr a 59-0 win at the D. H. S. Held. The Parkers featured their high-powered backs, but had to depend on ne plunges and end skirts to win. In the lineup were-MacFadden Hoyt Smuber Wkzddell Benn hot? HAROLD KNORR 1 ' 3 9 Y 5 lreen, Claxton, Frushour, Kerwin,,Davis, Berry, IVIcEvoy, and Ffverard. October 1 2: Springfield 46, Decatur 6 The following week the Red and Black Senators, traditional Big 12 res from the Capital City, met the locals in the annual game which is :ually the best battle on the calendar.

The Reds were good For I0 STUART GREEN BILL GRIFFIN rc 1.1 - PHIL McFADDEN BOB STAUBER BOB HAZENFIELD MAX HOWE first downs.

October 19: Decatur 19, Urbana 13 The next Friday saw the Reds break their losing streak by defeating the Urbana Tigers 19-13 in their second Big 12 conference game. V Carrying the mail for Decatur were Bob Hazenfield, Bob Stauber, and Bob Hoyt. Bob Stauber rein-iured a bad knee and was taken from the Held. Other hard-working Reds which helped pick up territory were: Nlartin, VVilliams, Musick, lV1acFadden, and Berry. October 26: Quincy 13, Decatur 6 The following week the Reds met the Quincy Blue Devils only to be topped 13-6, even though Decatur held the trump card in first downs, 10-9. Everard was good for the lone touchdown in the fourth period. Seeing action in the starting line-up were: Bennyhoff, VVells, Claxton, lVlartin, Lockmiller, VVeakley, Florian, Hoyt, Frushour, lVIacFadden, and Everard. November 2: Decatur 62, Shelbyville 0 In their second win of the year the locals ran loose on the home turf for a 62-0 win over the Rams. Going over for Decatur were Everard with two touchdownsg Shea, twog Frushour, twog Bradley, twog Hoyt, one and I-Iazenfield, oneg while Florian was good for two points after. BOB KERWIN DAVE KINCAID l V946 DICK LOCKMILLER HAROLD MARLOWE All the Reds saw action this game, and many of the juniors turned in good performances. November 9: Streator 13, Decatur 0 In the last home game of the year the Reds were topped by a rugged irreator eleven, 13-O. The locals' worst injury of the year came as Dick Berry was carried off the field with a fractured neck. The count rested at '-0 until all but four minutes of the game had been played, when the Bull- .ogs broke through the local defense for the additional six points. November 17: Bloomington 20, Decatur 7 The Reds finished up the year with a 20-7 loss at the Bloomington field. loyt stepped over for the only counter and Florian placekicked to make : 7.

The rugged type, Jake was an excellent rebounder, and a dead-eye around the basket. His playing ability will be missed out on the floor next year. Dale Bangert: Dale played on the B'f squad his sophomore year and was promoted to the Big Reds this year. A tall, lanky boy, he was a good reboun- der and should be a big help to next yea:-'s team. He, too, was on the sectional and state Tournament Ten. -. W amassing-s-f,,,, ,, November 24 Traveling to Lanphier of Springfield, for the first game of the season, the D. I-I. S. Reds defeated the Lions, 41-26. November 30 Quincy's Blue Devils did their bit to make the home opener a success by bowing to D. H. S., 41-29. December 1 Rated the underdogs, the Decatur boys traveled north to meet the tossers ofj. Sterling Morton High School of Cicero, but they proved that all doubts had been miscalculated as they brought home a SO-38 win. Roger Brady: Playing his first year on the A squad, Rog did well when called upon. A good ball- handler and shooter, Roger is ajunior and will return next season. His skills won him a place on the Tournament Ten for the sectional and state meets. X Q fbaaanaa v 198 Don Galka: The only junior to hold a regular posi- tion all season, Don was always in there fighting. He will be remembered for his spectacular long one- handers, his drive, and his spirit. Don was one of two underclassmen to make the Tournament Ten for all the entire tournament. ,H ,Z V946 ' Bob Hoyt: Another of the returning lettermen from last year's state champions, Bob played regu- larly most of the year. He put on the best scoring show of any of the Reds this year in the Oak Park game. Bob was the scrappiest player on the squad and provided the spark of victory several times. This stocky senior finished his high school sport's career in the state finals. r December 7 The Reds found the Bloomington Purple Raiders tough but not a polished club, and left the Ever- green City with a 57-46 victory which meant their first Big 12 win ofthe year. December 8 Gunning for their fifth straight win, the Reds found the visiting Oak Park quintet hard to halt and the Villagers took the measure of the Reds, 47-43. The only bright spot was Hoyt's 22 points. Bob Kurek: Bob improved rapidly after a slow start this year and was one of the main factors in the Reds' stretch drive. A very shifty player, Bob was a good rebounder, a clever guard, and a long shot artist. This was his second and last year of A squad ball for D. H. S. 7,,,7,,,,-,, ,,,, J , ,WHY ,, . fbaaanoid December 14 p The locals played host to the Urbana Tigers and won their second Big 12 tilt, 30-32, as basket per- centage hit a new low. December 15 The Kintnermen fought the East St. Louis Flyers on even terms throughout the contest only to drop the game in the final minutes, 48-45. Don Lfzwxon: The tallest member of the squad to- play the entire season, 6fS Don improved in his rebounding and on several occasions was high point man. Only a junior and with state tournament ex- perience behind him, Don should be invalilable next year. 200 Charles Logue: Charlie was one of two sophomores moved up to the A squad in mid-season. Although of only average size, he has plenty of iight and can use a jump shot to advantage. The future looks bright for Charlie with two more years to play. 79446 Ar! Mu:-ra3': Art is another of the promising sophomores playing for D. H. S. this season. Bother- ed with injuries for the greater part ofthe season, he was not moved up to the A squad until the East St. Louis trip. His shooting and dribbling ability, and his drive were good enough to earn him a place on the regional tournament ten. December 22 The Reds traveled to Edwardsville only to receive a 48-43 knockdown at the hands of the hosts. December 27 Feitshans of Springfield met the Reds in the Kint- ner gym and took a 63-37 pounding by thefstate champs. Bob Neuendmf: The scoreboard will look rather odd next year without Neuendorf--7 up there where it has been the past three winters. Lefty , the only returning player from the first five of last year's state champs, enjoyed another good season this year climaxed by his great performance at the state. XVe will miss the long, lanky frame of this sharp-shooting pivot man. r K fbccanoid O December 28 u East Moline's Cagers showed up fine in the first period, but the Reds' offense started rolling and they fell apart at the seams to take a bad beating, 66-39. January 1 The Reds once again failed to win the Holiday Tournament, falling before Champaign's sharp- shooting Maroons for the second straight year. This time it was a 50-24 loss coming after a 36-34 over- time win from Mattoon in the afternoon. January 4 The Reds traveled to Mattoon to play the Green Wave which avenged their holiday tournament loss by winning, 45-38. Ken Schroeder: Small, fast, a good ball-handler, and a good shot - - this best describes Ken's basket- ball abilities. He was a regular most of the year, played on the Tournament Ten, and won his second letter. This was Kenny's last year for Decatur High. Q , Cyrti: Richardson: Making up for his small size with speed, deceptiveness, and plenty of drive, Curt proved to be a very valuable sub. He won his letter on the A squad this year after playing on the B team last year. He should be a real asset to next year's team. 794261 3 1 p I Bob Siaubcr: Forced to stay on the bench most of the season as the result of a football knee injury, Big Stoop's rebounding power was greatly missed. Always popular with the fans, he was finally com- pelled to drop the sport because of his injury. He won his second letter and will not return next year. January 5 ' - Centralia appeared in the local gym and took the measure of the Reds in fine style by' a tally of 65-39. January 11 Mark Peterman brought his Springfield Solons to Decatur for the first game between the two of the keenest rivals in the state. The Reds were better at the free throw line and won, 39-36. . January 12 Gay Kintner's Reds made the trip to meet'EHing- ham's Flaming Hearts and found their fire pretty low, having no trouble pulling a S4-36 win out of the embers. Bill Tomlinson: The scrappy VVilliam L. was one of Coach Kintner's chief reserves this year, when he wasn't in the starting lineup. His sharp eye, for the basket won several games during the season, and his rebounding and drive were always an asset. VVillie , who won his second letter, was one of six seniors on the Tournament Ten. 2 O 2 up 4 January 15 In the annual intra-city game between Decatur's two high schools, the Reds took the honors, 68-39, over St. Teresa. January 18 Canton, who had given the Silver Streaks of Galesburg plenty of trouble when they were rated as one of the top fives, fell before the drive of Decatur, 49-35. January 19 ,South Shore, one of Chicago's best, came to Decatur but went home a sad loser as the Reds proved themselves superior in most every depart- ment, Decatur 51, South Shore, 36. Duaine Willian1:.' The other ofthe two Little Reds to be moved up in midseason, Duaine was the best dribbler and ball-handler on the team. Not too tall but exceptionally well-built, this sophomore should enjoy two more great seasons with the Reds. Duaine played on the regional ten in order to gain valuable tournament experience. 04 ll.-R.. S , , 1 Ken Wells: Coming to D. H. S. from Ottawa for his junior year, Ken proved to be an outstanding athlete. He was a good defensive ball player and a good ball-handler. He won his letter in his only season for D. H. S. . 1946 January 24 Playing the Urbana Tigers on their home floor, the Reds fell before a power house, 38-30. January 29 A football loss was avenged and another confer- ence win chalked up as a scrappy Red team ran over Streator's Bulldogs to win, 41-26. February 1 After just barely getting by Mattoon at Cham- paign and .then losing to the Gteen VVave, the locals retaliated in good form to annex a Big 12 game in the Kintner gym, 50-33. February 9 E The Reds were hard pushed to eke out a 48-41 win over Lanphier's much improved Lions. February 12 On a suitable day to meet Linclon, Lincoln's Birth- day, in a noncounting Big 12 affair, the Reds raced up and down the boards in pace with the visiting Railsplitters but lost out, 51-49, in the last minute. February 1 5 Again the Reds took the measure of the Quincy Devils, 55-40, in the Gem City. f February 2 The D. H. S. tossers showed good form in over- coming an early Oak Park lead to finally win out, 37-32, in a tight game. February 5 Efiingham tried it again on the Reds court but to no avail and left with a 48-37 decision against them. February 8 A The Reds, cramped in Springfield's hat-box gym, took another conference game, 49-42. 4.1, 1 February 28 After a very stiff quarter, the Reds pulled away from Wlarrensburg and won their second Regional test, 77-36. March 1 Cerro Gordo fought hard for the Regional title but Decatur's height overshadowed the Broncos in a 72-37 tilt. -The game brought Mr. Kintner his twelfth consecutive Regional titleQ March 'l A small scrappy lVIt. Pulaski five found the Reds' determination too great and fell in the first Sectional game, 45-29. O 6 February .22 Centralia's highly rated Orphans of the.Storm knocked Decatur flat again taking a 63-31 win. February-23 A group of revengeful Reds blew into Fast St. Louis like il lion but left like a lamb, after a 58-53 taming by the Flyers. This ended the regular season and Elie Reds entered the tournament with a 21-10 recor . February 26 In the Reds' first Regional game of the State tourney, they met their inter-city rivals and gave them the usual lacing in a 72-27 game. March 8 Decatur again met Mattoon's Green Wave in the Sectional title game, and the Reds won at the free throw line, 45-36. March 14 In the Hrst game of the State Finals, the Reds met a strong Pana team, and after a sharpshooting first half, won 55-41. March 15 A celebrated team from Dundee built up such a first quarter lead that Decatur, though outscoring them in the final three periods, fell 7 points short, 55-48. l942g Dick Anderson Dick Lewis Bill Scott X B Squad Tom Duncan Jim Mitchell Lynn Turner ff-l Chuck Hopper Ciney Rich Roger Williams 20 7 20 Track 5, ' 1 if I946 Q ,fi Track .il-1-1, 90 9 Q 'X in A , 'F ' A , 4 ,,,g 5 Tennis Sonny Bradley: fbccanold Big 12 Singles Champion District Doubles Champion.
