First Row: Mr. Eagan, .l. Clark, M. Brown, A. Brooks. Second Row: D. Rennels, L. Duckworth. Senior Cloiss This last year for the Class of '54 came to a close all too soon and many found it hard to believe their high school career was over. But there will be many things to remember in all phases of their school work-athletics, music, speech, etc. This year, the Seniors presented a skit in the Variety Show which was enjoyed by all. One of the highlights of the year was the Senior Class Play, Once ln Every Family. This was a gay comedy which turned out to be a great success. Everyone worked extremely hard to make it so, however, most of the credit goes to Miss Murray, the director. As a reward for all of the hard work, the Seniors took a three day trip to Chicago. This is the longest that any class has been gone in the history of the school. They went up on the train and stayed at the Pal- mer House, one of the finer hotels. Many sights were beheld by the Seniors while in Chicago. The finish of the year was climaxed with the Baccalaureate and Commencement exercises. The class officers for the year were as follows: President, Marilyn Brown, Vice-President, Larry Duck- worth, Secretary, Jackie Clark, Treasurer, Ann Brooks, Sergeant-at-arms, Dale Rennels. years to come-memories which have been made Warren Leslie lowry Budget Committee 2, Drivers' Training 2, Eagle l, 2, 3, Editor 4, Junior Academy of Science l, 2, 3, 4, Quill 81 Scroll 3, 4, Salutator- ian 4, Science Club l, 2, 3, 4, Sci- ence Contests 'l, 2, Speech 4, Speech Contests 4, Variety Show 1, 2, 3, 4, Concessions Manager 3, Senior Class Play Business Mana- ger 4.

Once ln Every Family The Senior Class of Eastern High presented the play, Once In Every Family , which was a huge success, the evening of April l. The large crowd which turned out for the play was not disappointed, and really enjoyed the humerous family life comedy. Mike Muchmore had the lead role in the play, playing the part of Mr. Brooks, or the father who had all the troubles. lt seemed as though every time he did something, it was the wrong thing. Virginia Ross, who played the part of Mrs. Brooks, went off for the weekend and left him with a house full of kids. The kids included his daughters Barbara and Betsy, played by Joan Phipps and Kay James, and Barbara's best friend, Jill, played by Sue Gibbs. David O'Brien had the part of Jerry, who was Barbara's boy friend, and Fred Thut was Shipahoy, Jill's boy friend. lrl Woodard was Mr. Willis, who happened to be Mr. Brooks' boss, and added considerably to the trouble. Mrs. Willis, played by Shirlee Trueblood, also did her share to complicate things by taking Mr. Brooks' dress suit to a rummage sale. To make sure that father got no peace, his son, Bruce, characterized by Jim Austin, brought home his two army buddies. Orville Kaley was the one who was full of life, and wanted to live a little, while Toni Waters was the cute Southerner. Barbara Reynolds and Sharon Smith had the part of two girls who came in to date the soldiers. Mr. Brooks' neighbors, Mr. and Mrs. Russell, were played by Tom Snyder and Diana Ballard. They also appeared to register their complaints against him. Besides the fact that all of these people were bothering him, poor father was also suffering from an imaginary case of peptic ulcers.

Footlights The Footlights Club, the school dramatic organization and one of our most active groups, began the year by holding tryouts for new members. These con- sisted of a reading and a pantomine by each candidate. Soon after the tryouts the new members were initiated. For the Stunt Show, the members staged a one-act play entitled Sugar and Spice , and at Easter time they sponsored a Easter Bonnet Hop which was quite a success. Miss Murray is the faculty sponsor and her work has helped to make this organization one of the largest in the school. THIRTY-ONE 1 lg tri all ll ip if . isis-'rs First Row: E. Lloyd, S. Cavins, P.

Early in the fall, they played at the bonfire and formed a pep band for the home football and basket- ball games. They marched in numerous parades including the Homecoming Parade and the Halloween Parade. They also took part in the Band Day activities giving a marching exhibition in the morning and marching in the parade the same afternoon. In the Variety Show, the band entered a skit which was a humorous arrangement of The Three Pigs. Members of the band acted out the various parts while the band made appropriate music and sounds. Later the same evening they played for the Coronation of the King and Queen. Besides giving several assembly programs, the band gave a concert at Kansas and the day of their Band Trip played at Westfield and Cumberland before enjoying an outing at Fox Ridge. The band participated in the District Contest where they received an excellent rating. The school year was ended by the playing of the processional and recessional the night of graduation.

Chorus The year i954 has seen a very busy Chorus under the leadership of a fine director, Mr. Pence. Several appearances were made in assembly programs and one was made where the songs that were to be sung at District Contest were presented. Much practice was put into preparation for contest. Hard work paid off as the Chorus won first at Dis- trict Contest and was recommended for State Contest and upon going to State also received a first. Also entered were five solos, a trio, a quartet, and two piano solos. Out of these, two solos by Leanne Gunder- son and Linda Mullins received firsts and advanced to State where they both received seconds, and one piano solo by Patsy Dvorak received first at District and at State Contest also received a first. The Chorus along with the Band had one exchange program with Kansas and Cumberland. Also they went on tour where the Chorus and Band presented programs at Cumberland and Westfield High Schools. Fun was had also on this trip as a picnic lunch was enioyed at Fox Ridge State Park. We have had a wonderful Chorus this year and should be very proud of those participating and Mr. Pence.

Those selected were: Warren Lowry, Mike Muchmore, Mary Nell Duncan, Rosemary Abeln, Bob Tay- lor and Carlos Harrison. The number is small not because of a lack of candidates, but because only a cer- tain percentage ot each class can be chosen.

The first skit was a Minstrel Show which was presented by the Girls' Chorus, under the direction of Mr. Pence. Second on the program was Monkey Business , presented by the Freshman Class. This skit por- trayed the inner workings of a typical class meeting. The Science Club presented the third skit, which was a science fiction production in which three mad scientists tried to take a specimen and make a perfect man. Fourth on the program was Progressive Education , presented by the Sophomores. F.H.A. Camp or Bust was presented by the F.H.A. as the fifth skit. One of the girls was on a bus going to F.H.A. camp and the skit showed some of the different types of people that she met on her trip. Sixth was a tap dancing number Me and My Shadow , done by Sharon Smith and Virginia Ross. Then the Junior Class presented their skit, which was a humorous characterization of Casey at the Bat . The Senior Class presented the eighth skit, which was Television's Talent Varieties. It consisted of five acts, which were entitled: The OO-la-la Girls from Gay Paris , Four Dreamers , Red Riders of the Range , The Singing Spinsters , and Dragnet . Sugar and Spice was the ninth skit, presented by the Footlights Club. It took place in the home of a girl who didn't like the boy next door. When her cousin came from Paris and began to like this boy, she got iealous and found out that she was really quite fond of him, too. Tenth and last of the skits was a musical story of The Three Little Pigs , presented by the High school Band, under the direction of Mr. Pence. The Coronation, the most impressive part of the show, ended the program. To the music of Pomp and Circumstance the Court took its place on the stage, and Marilyn Brown and Dale Rennels were crown- ed King and Queen by Virginia Ross and Mike Muchmore, who were the announcers. The flower girls were Susan Cavins and Janet Sprouls, and the crownbearers were Lester Stoner and Arthur Bower. Attend- ing the King and Queen were Shirley King, Larry Duckworth, Joyce Phillips, and Jack Mattingly. This was perhaps the largest Variety Show that Eastern has ever presented.

One of the new activities in which the club indulged was a Hobo Day where all the girls went to various people's houses and did odd jobs such as raking leaves, cooking, dusting, washing dishes, etc. The money received from these services was deposited in the treasury. The girls went to a Fall Rally at Sullivan and to a Spring Rally at Mattoon. Three of the girls modeled clothes that they had made at a style show at the Ral.y, The officers for the year were: Ann Brooks, President, Mary Nell Duncan, Vice-President, Shirley King, Secretary, Jackie Clark, Treasurer. The sponsor was Mrs. Fowler. The G.A.A. had its meetings on Mondays and Wednesdays this year. The girls were very successful in their different activities this year. The freshmen girls proved to be very faithful additions to the club. A G.A.A. play day was held at Eastern on January T6 and the college W.A.A. included the G.A.A. girls in a play day May 8. There are three awards in G.A.A. The first award is a numeral, the second is the letter E , and the third is the state award.

Science Club This year Eastern's Science Club had a successful year under the leadership of Miss Marks and Mr. Hoffman. In the first meeting, it was decided to meet every other Tuesday. Nancy Jean Peterka was elected president and David Hoffman was elected vice-president. The club went to Chicago and spent a day seeing all of the points of interest. They took a Cumberland Coach and a good time was had by all. Eastern played host to the annual District Science meet. Fourteen Eastern students got to go to the State Science meet at Monmouth, Illinois. Here, they won three outstandings, seven first, and four seconds. As a climax, the club went to Fox Ridge on a picnic for the last meeting. L. Stites, S. Smith, R. Railsback. First Row: Mr. Hoffman, M. Klehm, B. Palmer, B. Reasor, T. Waters, M. Muchmore, S.

Vorsity Club The main part of the year was spent in making money for the annual Varsity Club Banquet, which was held on May 26. It was quite successful and featured Dr. Carey, the college basketball coach, as the main speaker. The membership in this club is limited to those students who have earned a varsity letter. Early in the spring the club, in cooperation with the Charleston High School C Club, sponsored a bas- ketball game between the college Faculty Fossils and the faculty of CHS. Another means of earning money was through the sale of programs at the football and basketball games. The annual initiation was also held in the spring. This year the pledges were required to wear shorts, lipstick, rouge, and to have painted toenails. The officers of the club were: President, Larry Duckworth, Vice-President, Don Arnold, Secretary- Treas- urer, Darrell Clark, and Sponsor, Mr. Elmore.

Football i953 Eastern State opened the 1953 football season with very dim hopes at least in the opinion of many sports writers. But one sensible person rated them as a darkhorse in the E.I. League conference race. With Coach Elmore working a junior-senior backfield composed of O'Brien at quarterback, Arnold at fullback, and Adams, Henderson, and Rennels alternating at the halfbacks behind an all-senior line, the Vikings started off the season with a l3-7 win over conference foe Oblong. With a little overconfidence the Vikings prepared for the next game at Arthur. This fault was erased in a very rough game which Arthur came out the Victor by the long score of 26-7. One of the big reasons for the Vikings poor showing in this game was the absence of their big fullback Don Arnold, who along with a reserve had sustained the only injuries of the season thus far. Arnold was ready for the next game and a very determined Eastern crew upset the highly rated Paris Tigers 7-O. This game was highlighted by the two terrific goal line stands by Eastern, both of which had big Charlie Montgomery in the center of them. The next week the Vikings defeated two things, the jinx which Martinsville usually holds over them, and the team itself as they won T4-6. At the halfway mark in the season the Vikings stood 3-O in confer- ence play and 3-l overall. Eastern stepped out of the conference for the fifth game of the season and were soundly thumped by the fine Ridgefarm team which featured a little all-state back. The Vikings were on the short end of a 20-7 score but still stood 3-O in the conference. The Blue and Gold traveled to Palestine the next week in hopes of conquering big Paul Beeson, al- though no one gave them much chance to do it. Again Eastern upset the bucket and won a thriller 7-6. The team now had a chance to do something which no past team had ever done, win 5 conference games. Going against St. Elmo, which in the scout's report was capable of an upset, the Vikings gave a real showing of power as nine men scored to put Eastern out in front 46-O. This game gave an indication of next year-as every reserve gave a very capable showing of himself. Eastern was now tied for first in the conference with only Casey left in the path of Eastern's first championship. Then the boom dropped as Casey defeated the team l-4-O in a wildly disputed game which had to be seen to be believed. As a result Eastern finished the year with a 5-3 record, and third in the conference behind Effingham and Robinson who tied for first. FORTYVEIGHT First Row: M. Muchmore, C. Montgomery, K. Bryant, D.

The final Season's record shows that they won six and lost sixteen. In E.l. League competition they won five and lost eight, while finishing tenth in the conference. The highlight of the season came at the second CHS game. The Troians were dumped 57 to 55. In the first game, the Vikings led all the way, only to lose in the last minutes. Two conference games were won in overtimes. These games were the ones with St. Elmo and Martins- ville. At Witt, another overtime game, the Vikings played one of their better games, only to lose 69 to 72. Another disappointing game was the one played at Neoga. After trailing the whole game, the Vikings rallied to tie the score in the last quarter, only to be defeated on a last second shot. One of the most satisfy- ing games came toward the season's end, when Eastern defeated Kansas, one of the few teams to hold a victory over our team of the previous year. Statistics show that the Vikings scored 1,133 points to their opponents' 1,367 points. The Vikings averaged 51.5 points a game to their opponents' 62.1 points per game. The leading scorer was Don Arnold, with 225 points to his credit, an average of 10.2 points a game. He was followed closely by Howard Adams, who had 223 points and a 10.1 game average. The leaders in field goal percentages were Bob Bruce, Fred Thut, and Don Arnold, with percentages of 54, 44, and 41 respectively. Don Arnold led in free throws scored, with a total of 91, and with the highest percentage made l68'X,1. Graduating Senior lettermen are: Darrell Clark, Jim Mitchell, Dave O'Brien, and Fred Thut. Returning lettermen will be: Howard Adams, Don Arnold, Bob Bruce, and Jerry Henderson. Don Arnold will be the next year's captain.

A Viking team has never been defeated at home since The completion of the new track. In the larger meets the Eastern trackmen gave good accounts of themselves. They won the Paris Relays for the second conse- cutive year, received fourth in the Charleston Invitational, fifth in the Pana Open, and fourth in the Ur- bana Relays. There was only one record set this year and that was in the mile relay. A team composed of Kibler, Rennels, Thut, and Arnold ran it in 3:51 minutes. Some of the better performances that were turned in were: Don Arnold in the high iump, 5'9 , Frank Stites in the discus, l2l', Mike Barton in the mile run, 5:01 minutes, and Dale Rennels and Jon Kibler in the 440, 56 seconds. Only three lettermen are graduates. They are Dale Rennels, honorary captain, Fred Thut, and David O'Brien. Next year the team can look forward to many victorious days with boys like Kibler, Arnold, Stites and Barton to carry on. F I FTY-TWO S. Edwards, J. Phipps, L. Clark lnot shown-R, Dailey, D.

Tennis Coach Walter Elmore completed his fourth successful year of tennis. His team had a record of seven wins and two losses. The squad won the district meet which is quite an achievement. Then Captain Don Arnold and Bob Taylor went to the State meet to represent this district. There were three lettermen this year, Don Arnold, Bob Taylor, and Jim Mitchell. J- ' First Row: R. Mingus, M.
