THE YEARBOOK I949 Published by THE SENIOR CLASS of Evanston Township High School VOLUME XXXII EVANSTON ILLINOIS Foreword A century ago American pioneers in cover- ed wagons and on horseback were slowly pushing their way across the country. They were searching for gold, but during this jour- ney they opened new,and vast frontiers. Al- though they did not realize it, they were building America. It seems to us appropriate that in these days of supersonic aircraft and atomic fission we look back across history for one hundred years to the days of the early lllest. lVe find it enjoyable and interesting' to glance back to the problems and the pleasures of the pioneers of a century ago. The far- away' atmosphere of wagon wheels, cowboys. the loneliness of the Great Plains, the friend- ly companionship of an old-time square dance all pass in the panorama. Now, one hundred years later, the scramb- led staccato of current events outlines the ap- pearance on an inspiring new world. The graduating class of 1949, like the original forty-niners. is also entering upon new fron- tiers.

The ETHS music department continues to be one of the finest features of our school because of the way in which the chorus, or- chestra, and band groups co-operate in pro- viding- fine entertainment. Directed by Mr. Fred, the band present- ed its annual concert in January, featuring a trumpet trio by Ted Bowman, Gene Wys- kocil, and Bruce Mac Gibeny. The band also played at football and basketball games. A highlight of the orchestra's annual fall concert was an original composition for cello with the composer, joel Brumlik, as soloist. The orchestra, conducted by Mr. Rohner and the A Capella choir, under the direction of Miss Rafferty, were featured on the op- ening broadcast on WEAW from the new ETHS radio studio, and broadcast Handel's Messiah over WNMP when a direct tele- phone line to the station was officially open- ed. Tilden, Vice-Presidentg Stanley Rapp, Barbara VVEAVV also broadcast the annual Christmas festival in which over SOO stu- dents participated. For the first time the band, orchestra, and chorus presented two identical concerts because of the great de- mand for tickets. Climaxing weeks of preparation by the drama, art, home economics and music de- partments, Patience',, 'Gilbert and Sulli- van's satirical operetta was produced by three casts on February 10, ll, and 12 at Haven school. February 27 the A Capella choir and the orchestra performed at a Convention of High School Principals at the Congress Hotel. All the organizations, directed by an able music facultv including Miss Raf- ferty, Miss Keith, Mr. Needham, Mrs. Ia- cobson, Mr. Fred, and Mr. Rohner, worked together to produce the Spring Music Fes- tival. The festival, held in May, climaxed another very successful musical year at ETHS. Q AFV! V.

Our courage will not waver Win or lose. TRIALSWI Line Punchers Completing the second year of ETHS football under Coach Reihson, the squad showed remark- able spirit and courage. Scoring three victori- es against five setbacks, the Varsity team early in the season was struck with key injuries to outstanding players. The first contest on September 18, saw the Wildkits quell Amundsen of Chicago 26-6. The ETHS squad played well on offense as Don Palmer scored twice on long runs. The follow- ing Saturday, Evanston shut out Bowen 33-0 with Baird Stewart, who led the Kits in scoring with 30 points for the season, going into the end zone twice. On October 2, Evanston lost to Morton in the final three minutes, a score of 14-12. Stewart and Fred Connally scored for the Wildkits. In a defensive game, ETHS chalked up its third victory of the season over Proviso, 14-7, as Con- nally and Don Palmer, who scored one touch- down, carried the ball most of the afternoon. The other marker was made by Stewart. Waukegan visited the Orange and Blue thc following week and overpowered the Evanston eleven, 21-0. The Bulldogs scored only in the sccond half in a closer game than the score would indicate. The Wildkits fought a courageous battlc against the vaunted Huskies of Oak Park, witl' Mike Puffer expertly calling t.e plays 'before the biggest crowd of the home season. Palmei drove over the goal line after a series of play: starting on the Evanston 12-yard line. Chuck Hoag and Schrieber scored for the Villagers making the tally 20-6. Then Puffer fired a pass to Jim Grier for the Wildkits' last touchdown The Orange and Blue lost to Highland Park 20-6, as Stewart wound up with a pass that Went from Puffer to Palmer to Majewski for thc Evanston touchdown. The traditional clash of the year between Evanston and New Trier closed the season with the Terriers winning 19-7. This game was closely fought until Calkins punched over for New Trier after recovering a fumble in Wildkit territory. At the Fall awards night Jim Rowe, thc Wildkits, right tackle, was honored with thc Myerson trophy. Jim also was selected on the all suburban eleven. Although this year's team did not fulfill the high expectations held for it, next year's squad which will be composed of several returning lettermen promises to have a very excellent season. TOP ROW: Coach Reihsen, Coach Plath, Davis, Schrader, Buick, Connally, Krakowski, Smith, Perrin, Fifer, Stewart, Tripple, Welland, Traeger, Walsh, Riba, Coach Conner.

Starting their season with an impressive 48-22 victory over Niles, the Wildkit basketball team roared on for eight successive wins. The team which brought itself into a top position in the Suburban League sparkled with Fred Tritschler, Jim Cobb, Ken Hunt, Tom Miller, Ronnie Myers, Norm Taylor, Jack Atkinson, Gene Bell, George Slight, Paul Tourney, and John Morris as its members. On November 19 the Orange and Blue toppled the always dangerous La Grange five, 51-47, in the closing seconds of the game. The first encounter in the Suburban League found New Trier 'battling Evanston. The final score was 36-31 with the Kits on top. The deciding factor in the outcome of this game, as in many others, was Evanston's accuracy from the free throw line. In January ETHS once again defeated New Trier on the Indians' own court. Following the first New Trier game the Wild- kits trounced Amundsen, Oak Park, Proviso, Thornton, and Waukegan in rapid succession. One of the most exciting tussels of the entire campaign saw the Huskies of Oak Park play ETHS. The Wildkits won the game in an over- time, 47-46. Evanston took undisputed first place in the Suburban League after beating Thornton, 37-31. The Kits continued their streak by topping Waukegan, a highly rated team, by a score of 38-25. After this game the Evanston quintet was given a fifth place rating in the state by the Associated Press weekly poll. ETHS teams had not achieved such a distinction in many years. Evanston's streak was shattered by an upset to Highland Park. The Wildkits temporarily lost their pace, bowing to Morton and also to Oak Park in a game which was similar to the first encounter, but with the Huskies on the long end of the tally. Evanston came back trouncing Proviso 50-4C and Thornton 46-32. Although Evanston, hav- ing one of its bad evenings, lost to Waukegan, the Kits finished the season -by beating Morton. The ETHS squad ended in a tie for second place in the Suburban League. In the State Regional Tournament at Wau- kegan, Evanston beat Zion, New Trier, and Barrington to win the regional trophy for the first time in many years. At the Elgin sectional, ETHS bowed to an Oak Park quintet whicii played one of its finest games of the season. The ETHS team, despite the fact that it suf- fered some unfortunate defeats, was undoubtedly one of the finest squads ever to represent the school.

Today we are glad to remember both the hardships and the pleasures. As we gather around the campfire, some of our outstanding lead- ers recall the events of the past. The fastest four years in my life were the years spent at ETI-IS. It seems like only yesterday, when as a freshman I was approached for the first time with the fam- iliar phrase, 'fBuy your elevator tickets now and avoid the rush.', Suddenly, there I was-a big sophomore full of wisecracks for the incoming fresh- men and plenty of the l'm a sophomore so yould better watch your step attitude. Then I was an upper-classman-a full- fledged junior. Those were the days when you were either knocked flat on your back by a Latin test or asphyxiated by chemistry fumes. Finally, the big day arrived when I be- came a senior. Immediately I became anx- ious to rid myself of the burdens of ETHS and go on to college. Then old memories began to reappear-memories of the num- erous joys and pleasures I received while in 204 and 164-memories of the thrills and chills of athletic contests both as a specta- tor and participant. Yes, it was fun now that I think of it and Iim going to miss IZTHS very much and I know you will miss it too. VVell, this is where our paths separate, but I hope they'll cross again some day. - Bud l3eI.app I'll always connect a part of my days at ETHS with the fun, the thrills, and the exciting atmosphere that went with the various publication get-togethers held throughout the school year. I know it'll be a long time before I for- get the big day of my life-the publications banquet-at which the l948 staffs were an- nounced. l doubt if there was a person Flickering present at the banquet who wasn't thrilled by the tenseness and the expectation of that evening. Then there was the statewide journa- lism convention at Champaign - complete with a dance the next night. And there were trips to the Press Guild on the NU Chicago campus. There were new friends to meet at the Daily News Keen-Teens Press Club. and old friendships to be re- newed when the FVANSTONIAN played host to New Trier at a publications party in the Faculty Dining Room. lVe made it a point to mix business with pleasure. The result: the most wonderful memories anyone could have of Evanston High School. -jim Malof Four years is a long time or a short time depending on whether it lies before you or behind you. As I look back now these last four years seem the shortest and the happiest I have ever spent. Now, as I look on my senior year and compare it to my first three years, I am sorry I didn't take advantage of the opportunity to enter into more activities sooner. I have learned that work is fun if done with the right spirit and the right people. Both of these I have found here at school. Although I am looking forward to col- lege, I can't help but regret leaving Evan- ston. However, these things I shall never forget: the way my knees shook when I stood before the assembly for the first time, the locker room after the Proviso game, Coach Reihson at the Football Dance. and a major letter on awards night. - Perry Peterson Campfires My four years at Evanston High School have been the most marvelous years I have ever known. These years represent all my fun, excitement, and ambition, even the homework counts. I'll remember how I griped and moaned at night because I har' homework to dog but after it was done, 1 had a satisfied feeling. There are many memories about Evan- ston High. and I know I'll never forget any of them. Trireme, Pentangle, and G. A. C. activities, the periods in 260, basketball and football games, Tuesday rehearsal of Girls' Choir, Madrigals, Freshmen Choir, Mixed Choir, Miss Rafferty, one of the most won- derful persons, and finally, the Christmas and Spring Festivals. Of all the schools I've attended, ETHS is, and always will be, the best. - Iinny Petro The thing that I'll miss most when I leave this institution, and I use that word loosely, will be my friends. VVhen I was very young, my grand- father used to set me on his knee, and the first thing he'd ask me would be How are your friends? He would tell me that you never can have too many friends, and I've found this statement to be very true. To you who have just started high school this year and you who are going through it , here are a few tips. Do your best in everything, for you can get out of high school only what you put into it, and this high school certainly offers a lot to the student who will take advantage of it. Oh yes, don't forget to study now and then. Cl've heard a rumor that that's why we're herej. Enough of this now- Good luck to all of you, and I hope to see you again when I come back to be one of the audience instead of one of the per- formers. - Beverly Baughman Finishing up these last important tests emptying our lockers and desks, and being gently but firmly pushed out by the under- classmen, we seniors may look back on a year of seriousness and fun not easily for- gotten. I especially like to remember the first assembly and the sea of faces, the football season, thrilling victories - Oh yes defeats - hot dogs and cold feet, blue. white, yellow, and even pink slips, Latin declensions, and Mr. Bridge's debates, the basketball gamcs with one point to make or break us, the wonderful school spirit, the endless 8:00 meetings, Wednesday movies, last minute everybody-for-him- self rehearsals for Music Festivals, the Friday rush in the cafeteria for the paper sixth periods and big campaigns in 260, ex- ams drawing nigh with some cramming and much hope. So we seniors will leave, and the same sort of panicky feeling I had as a freshman when I first walked down that long middle hall is dogging me now when I think of going to an even bigger school, but I hope that, as with Evanston, I will find new friends and wonderful opportunities. - Sue Koren As graduates of Evanston Township High School we shall carry away many memories of the past. In a sense we too have struck gold, the gold of knowledge and friendship. Our class song, exchange of autographs, the last assembly, and graduation are firmly engraved on our memory. Many of us will travel on to col- lege, others will enter vocations-all of us will recall our four years of high school as one of our most valuable and wonderful experiences. 89 ,SE 1 4 AW ,gn A' 4A ' .fb 9 -Wm. 7A .---I I is ' fwwg 'v no xXxff'fv x Km-1 ' --- f or P? 3.1 .

Today and tomorrow our troubled world will need courageous young leadership. America must have leaders who will hold firmly to the best of the past but will also advance the nation's economic and social frontiers. The youth of our country is confronted with a distraught and dis- illusioned world which challenges its ideals, its thinking, and its faith. We must meet this challenge with hope, with wisdom, and with courage.
