Fairbury-Cropsey High School Fairbury, Illinois The Crier Published by American Yearbook Co. Hannibal, Missouri Faces; Facets FCHS, 1968 For fifty-two years the familiar High School facade has loomed up to welcome its students to the store of knowledge within its walls. However, learning reaches far beyond the classroom. Each individual face, whether it be an inquisitive freshman's, an anxious senior's, or a determined teacher’s, reflects a very important lesson--a lesson learned from mankind. Aren't these the really valuable ones? Friendship beams from a crowded car; a shadowy profile intently studies back stage; a loyal student reacts with enthusiasm; and grim faces reluctantly realize defeat. Oh yes, a face reveals much in the life of a student! 3 The many facets of FCHS life--athletics, clubwork, dances, celebrations, campaigns, and academics--provide the opportunity for every student to involve himself. From these activities evolve other valuable lessons: responsibility, co-operation, and leadership. 4 Contents FACES AT FCHS--7 Dedication.......................... 6 Administration.......................8 A.F.S.

Whether this contribution is constructive or not is immaterial, as the fact remains that the opportunity for such a contribution is made available through the many facets of a high school. We hope the ensuing pages cause you to pause and reflect upon these thoughts, and that they revive many memorable moments of FCHS 1968. 5 Mr. t t Deciding upon a personality for this page of the yearbook is usually a very difficult task. The staff attempts to choose a person who is interested in young people and their education, one who willingly gives freely of his time and energies for this endeavor. A dedication page recognizes outstanding talent, and interest in the youth of our community. This year, the task was not difficult. The choice of the FCHS music director, Mr. Bradtke, was instantaneous and unamimous. In Mr. Bradtke, the staff has found more than a dedicated teacher. They have found a warm and genuine personality sincerely interested in youth, their problems and their future. Dedication Mr. B. as he is familiarly known by his students, joined the FCHS faculty in 1960. He found a band membership of eighteen musicians. Since then, he has built an organization eighty-five strong, the envy of the county in size and talent. The choral groups and band regularly bring contest honors home to FCHS. Under the direction of Mr. B. , a stage band has grown and prospered. A highly successful band boosters program was begun and continues to support the Tartar bandsmen. Few have done as much so willingly for the students of FCHS. With pride and pleasure we salute you, Mr. B. 6 Administrative Leaders Mrs. Burroughs Mrs. Ricketts Mr. Lester H. Miller, Superintendent Mr. Miller has served as our superintendent since February of 1964. He came to our unit from Illiopolis where he also served as superintendent. Mr. Miller's main work is the day-to-day direction of our district. Without the calm guidance and direction from this office, the functioning and efficiency of the district would soon deteriorate. 8 Mrs. Rath Guide Our School The Board of Education is a group of local citizens elected to oversee the operation of Community Unit District No. 3. Usually, students are not concerned about routine decisions of the board. In 1968, however, with a potential merger of our district with a neighbor or two, students became aware that board decisions can and do affect them directly. What ever the final disposition of the merger proposal, the board continues its service to the community and its youth. 9 Bud Paternoster Wayne Ziller, Jr. A A few Principal Leads EX you remember the crowd of students in the principals' office? This ever present crowd was ample evidence that the office staff could be found working industriously almost anytime you cared to peek in. Routine tasks were dispatched with ease, the more difficult tasks took only slightly more time. Mr. Charles Lane A new principal filled the chair vacated by Mr. Peer man. Mr. Lane came to FCHS from Deer-Creek Mackinaw where he had served as principal also. Our new principal was not new to education as he had been a teacher or principal since 1957. The student body, with usual aplomb, readily adjusted to the new administration. 10 MRS. SCHERR an Experienced Faculty The faculty members, with patience and personal understanding, have successfully guided the students through another busy year of study. Their unselfish and willing expenditure of time and energy provided immeasurable aid to various clubs and classes. Each new day was a challenge met and conquered, to the benefit of the students. MR.

Perhaps such a faculty is one that believes their fundamental goal is a progressive nation in a peaceful world, served by an educational system which promotes the fullest individual self-realization for both sexes and for all races, classes, faiths, and nationalities. Achieving this objective demands understanding of and commitment to the proposition that education is a primary instrument for social advancement and human welfare. 13 MRS.

Our fifth AFS student, Manuel Canlas, came to Fairbury from Angells City, Philippines. There he lived with his parents, three sisters, and a brother while attending Holy Angell's College. His American home was with the John Roth family. Manuel found his family here loving and understanding. Regarding the American people, particularly residents of Fairbury, Manuel felt they were friendly and nice people. As his main interests, Manuel found much enjoyment in reading political and economic books, playing badminton, writing poems, and singing. After returning home, Manuel planned to attend the University of the Philippines and either work for a Bachelor of Arts degree in economics or a Political Science degree in law. Senior Class—1968 Four years ago eighty-five freshmen entered FCHS eager to embark on what looked like four long years. They found the freshmen and sophomore years flying by. During the junior year they kept busy at various tasks such as burning popcorn and selling pop to help sponsor the Jr. Sr. Prom, Evening in Venice. The senior year activities began with their last Homecoming and the crowning of Karen Slayton as Homecoming Queen. The play and prom were the main activities in which the seniors participated.

After losing the first four games of the year, the outlook dimmed somewhat. None-the-less, with unflaging spirts, the team came home to win their second straight Homecoming game in two years and then with sustained momentum finished the second half of the season by winning three out of the remaining four games. Difficult conditions were a constant challenge to team spirit, but were admirably overcome. With only five seniors, a greater responsibility fell upon junior teammates . Much of the second half of the season was played under adverse weather. Injuries took their normal toll. Nevertheless, the team managed a respectable record of four wins and five losses--the best record of the past several years. An offensive lesson well learned! 41 One man defense--not enough!

At the beginning of i967-68 basketball season, it looked like a rebuilding year at FCHS and it proved to be exactly that. With only two seniors seeing regular action on the team, the remaining three positions were filled by juniors. Even though the Tartar's season record was 5-16, the Tartars usually played good basketball throughout the season, losing seven of their games by ten or fewer points. The Tartar five displayed outstanding rebounding strength, good ball handling, a great amount of hustle, and good overall defensive strategy. With ten returning juniors on the team, the Tartar's are looking forward to a well experienced team next year.

Walter, Mgr., Coach Jefferies. Nine returning lettermen led the Tartar baseball squad under the direction of Coach Jeffries. With the addition of a good group of new recruits from the Freshman class, the Tartar squad proved they could field a well balanced and experienced team against their opponents. For the first time in several years, the Tartars had an abundance of pitchers and catchers on the team which gave them added staying power. With this experience and an enlarged schedule, the Tartar sluggers provided the baseball fans at FCHS with an exciting spring, which included winning the district and a season record of ten wins, five losses, and one tie. Spring . . . Into Action Sixteen Tartar cindermen started the '68 track season under Coach Edwards. Perhaps the lack of a track accounts for the poor interest in this sport on the part of both fans and athletes. Only four upperclassmen returned for the '68 season. There was a consequent lack of experience and depth on the squad. The future looks better, though, as all the thin clads are expected back in '69, and as there are strong indications that a new track will be constructed next year at FCHS. The season closed with a record of one win and nine losses. KNEELING: J. Thompson, S. Bazzell, M. Canlas, M. Morris, B. Nakamaru, R. Bull, T. Rigsby, J. Munz, M. Runyon, Mgr.

Tartars The best golf team I have coached since coming to FCHS, was the comment made by Coach Fyke in describing the '68 golf team. Out of the eight golfers that went to each meet, everyone had had three years of golf training under Coach Fyke. The five best scores of these eight were recorded for competition. The golfers were scored on the basis of medal play. ’ Tee Off VARSITY SQUAD Nancy Ifft Vicky Koehl Patty Flint Karen Slayton Mickey Johnston Cheerleaders Lead the Way Go, Tartars, Go! This was a familiar sound heard during the football and basketball seasons as the cheerleaders attempted to harness the energy of the crowd and direct it in support of the team. Well led, organized cheering often made the difference between victory and defeat. Cheerleaders worked hard at their job, no matter what the weather or the win-loss record. In the summer of 1967, Karen Slayton and Patty Flint represented the FCHS squad at the Cheerleading Clinic at I.S.U. Many evenings after school, the squad could be found hard at work on old and new routines for the next game. Stacy Edwards, future cheerleader? JUNIOR VARSITY SQUAD Diane Kennedy Lynnette Abbey Reta Cooperider Pam Maurer Jayne Smith The Sound of Music at FCHS FCHS Bandsmen enjoyed a variety of musical experiences this year. The Marching Tartars entertained at halftime of the football games and aroused enthusiasm as a cheering section. During the winter, our loyal musicians sparked school spirit at the pep assemblies. Pops Concert in January, state band contest at Monticello in the early spring, and the Spring Concert rounded out a busy year for the bandsmen. As a new feature of the Livingston County Band Festival, the County Music Teacher's Association fostered a Livingston County All-Star Band, composed of outstanding musicians from the county bands. Directed by Mr. George Foeller of Illinois State University, the Livingston County All-Star Band provided our more talented Tartar bandsmen with a stimulating challenge for musical achievement.

The FCHS Chapter of Future Farmers of America is composed of students interested in agricultural and related occupations. FFA members attempt to improve country life and build a more permanent agriculture. 1968 FFA projects, such as a scrap metal drive and a sale of amber lights and garden seeds, provided income for the club's judging contests, hay rides, and trips to state and national FFA conventions. Special activities were planned to observe National FFA Week. The year was climaxed with the annual Future Farmers banquet. Future Homemakers of America is a national organization of home economics students who strive for happier home life. Annual activities include initiation of incoming members, Daddy Date Night, and the spring style show, in which FHA members model clothing they have made in Home Economics classes. This year the club sponsored a cake walk, garage sale, and sale of cookbooks and Christmas napkins as money-making projects. FHA members donated food and clothing to a children's home and supported a Vietnamese orphan, thus fullfilling their purpose as a service organization. ... in Ag and in the Home BACK ROW: M.

Homecoming and Student Council elections were anticipated by everyone and no one was dissappointed. Homecoming, Peanuts, was successful in every way. The Student Council planned, organized, and then labored for the whole week. The elections brought out nine candidates, hundreds of posters, but only four winners.

Partners to the Classroom The FCHS Math Club is an organization fostered to promote interest and achievement in mathematics and related fields. The club, composed of sophomore, junior, and senior math students, visited the Museum of Science and Industry in Chicago in December and instituted a school-wide March of Dimes campaign. The Math Club also promoted The Ninth Annual Top Teen Talent Show which was both a money-making and entertaining project. With nearly seventy-five members, the Math Club continued to be an important facet of student life at FCHS. The French Club is composed of both present and past French students. The club sponsored a sock hop and a bake sale as money-making projects. Prominent activities of 1968 were the Christmas smorgasbord party and the initiation of incoming members. 60 BACK ROW: B.

Training for Tomorrow The Interrelated Co-operative Education club, established in 1965, to promote occupational interest and training, has thirty-one members. This year the club sponsored the annual Sadie Hawkins dance and held an Employer's Appreciation banquet honoring the employers and trainers with whom the students were associated. They taped interviews in class and broadcasted one each week over WPOK radio in Pontiac. Their other activities included bowling, observance of VIC A Week, and their Christmas basket activity. Mr. Fyke, the co-ordinator of the program, has worked with the students helping them to understand more fully the trade they have chosen. 64 With the first bell at 8:32 1 2 a.m. every week day, the halls fill and the students resolutely adapt themselves to the three hours of classtime that lie ahead. The educational system of today is not a rigid fact learning by lecture method of past generations. 66 Life . . . A Busy Life It is a much more relaxed, flexible system whereby two students can work their problems out at the board; where a somewhat crowded study hall is provided during schooltime; and where students can work together in discovery of the miracles of chemistry. Noon hour comes and each student can be seen finding his own means of relaxation before the afternoon session. Some spend it with that special person; others, belonging to the noon hour club, disappear into the confines of the band room, discussing the world's problems, and occasionally eating; and, with weather permitting, some enjoy a quiet moment on the front lawn. 67 Again the bell rings and it is back to class, but first just a short drink to carry through a session of Julius Caesar. For another it is a last minute cramming session for one of the notorious pop quizes in room 11. It means back to work for the faculty also, but for this teacher it means . . . say, Mr. Kilgus just what does it mean? 68 Aside from the studies there is much more for a student to involve himself in. These are times remembered many years later. The work it took to build that bonfire; the joy of victory as an out-going president congratulates an incoming one after a week of strenuous campaigning and much anxiety; and the careful scrutiny as to which ring really is better looking. 69 Homework is not the only thing that occupies student time during an ordinary week night. There are plays to present which means weeks of strenuous work; decorating for Homecoming is always great fun; Daddy-date night comes once a year and with it all sorts of antics. The band students work for the nights for they mean football shows and concerts. For some, there are banquets, held by some of the numerous clubs and organizations. There are many facets to school life aside from books, but these are the things which round out the individual, develop personality and establish character. These are the qualities which hopefully will lead to good citizens of the future. 70 Threatening Skies Dissolve . . . Bonfire activities this year began without the usual wail of firetruck sirens, but this failed to dampen Tartar enthusiasm . Rousing speeches and cheers were a prelude to the lighting of the huge bonfire and the snake dancing. The evening activities were climaxed by the announcement of the 1968 Homecoming Queen--Karen Slayton. As the crowd left, able firemen watched over the dying embers. The Start of a Successful Homecoming What's a parade? Sunny skies, floats, a band, and people. The 1968 Homecoming parade was nearly postponed for the second year in a row, but the weather brightened, the wind abated, and spirits soared. With the usual aplomb, the Tartar bandsmen led a successful parade of radiant royalty, and beautiful floats. Second prize--Math Club Third prize--Sophomore Class Victory Over Herscher. . After four straight losses, the Fairbury-Cropsey Tartars entered the victory column against the Herscher Tigers. And they couldn't have picked a better time--Homecoming 1967. The game, close all the way, proved to be the turning point of the season. Junior halfback Steve Ziegenhorn was the Tartar's most valuable player. The Tartars were victorious by only 13--10, but because it was Homecoming it was the greatest game of the year. Royalty prepares for half-time appearance Touchdown! 74 Celebrated with Queen s Crowning Giddy elation was climaxed with the crowning of our queen by Student Council President, Dale Atte-berry. With a radiant smile Queen Karen graciously accepted her crown. Royalty and Subjects danced to the music of the Casa Loma Trio of Wayne Bradtke--amid decorations provided by the Student Council. Memories will long linger of a truly delightful evening. R. Rigsby, M. Johnston, Queen Karen, C. Nussbaum, S. Schieler. A Regal Court P. Flint, D. Crabtree, L. Abbey. BACK ROW: B. Ward, R. Rigsby, J.

Junior-Senior Play “The Skin of Our Teeth A play is many things. It is a silent backstage. It is the waiting. It is the big moment on stage . This year's Junior-Senior class play was a rich, rewarding experience for all who were in- volved. As in the past, Mr. David Fuller directed and produced a play of the highest quality. The Skin of Our Teeth by Thornton Wilder is the story of the George Antrobus family and their maid, Sabina. George and his wife Maggie and their two children, Henry and Gladys, manage to survive through the Ice Age, Noah's Flood, and finally War. Written in an unusual, but interesting style, The Skin of Our Teeth is a Pulitzer Prize winning play that made the audience think; and this is what the author intended. CAST Sabina..........

The audience does not see the work put out by everyone behind the scenes, but it is there and it must be done. Changing scenery and applying make-up are just two of the many thankless, but necessary jobs. ♦--Friday night only. 79 Autumn . . . As Autumn returns and the leaves begin to fall, school begins again. And with it comes a new football season. For thousands of people in our country, Friday night means High School football. So it is in Fairbury . . . 80 . . . The cheerleaders, in any weather yelling for their victory, sometimes when victory is elusive. The band marching to bring spirit to all who come to see the Tartars PIay. . , The fans, always loyal, always confident that if we don t get them tonight, wait till next year, The team, battling and fighting to win and to uphold the honor of FCHS, and Finally the coaches, who strive to instill sportsmanship and athletic prowess into anybody willing to learn. The coaches, who, praised in victory, cursed in defeat take 30 young men and mold them into a team--the FCHS Tartars. 81 As winter approaches and the air becomes colder, sports move indoors and a new basketball season begins at FCHS. High School basketball is fast moving, exciting, and sometimes sad. The bright lights in the gym, the popcorn, the pep band, the cheerleaders all contribute to the school spirit that exemplifies basketball. Winter. . . . . . Brings Basketball Many people see a basketball game in many ways. For some it is a chance to be with that favorite someone. The players and coaches see it as a challenge. Many faces are seen at an FCHS basketball game. Some are sober, most are happy, all are hopeful of a victory. 83 Mary Lynn makes her catch. FCHS Hillbillies Whoop It Up Dogpatch belle, Connie McClellan. Spring, and Dogpatchers everywhere turn their thoughts to the annual Sadie Hawkins event. FCHS style was a dance on April 5, with music provided by the Undivided. Do you remember Mr. Kilgus and his date , Miss Bobby Walter? They had their picture taken in the wheelbarrow. FCHS girls pursued their quarry in the annual Sadie Hawkins Race. The big catch of the evening was during a sit-in when Mark Yergler and Karen Slayton were crowned king and queen of Dogpatch. 84 V W Instrumental Division, first prize, Eternal Souls from Fortest. Teen Talent—Top Entertainment The 1968 Top Teen Talent Show proved to be one of the Math Club's best presentations for community entertainment. Viewed by approximately 750 persons, the ninth Talent Show featured vocal, novelty, keyboard, and instrumental acts from schools within fifty miles of Fairbury. Judges found their decisions difficult, and several ties in the vocal competition emphasized the contestants' exceptional talent. Terry East-wood, a versatile baton twirler from Towanda, swept the 1968 Grand Prize. Grand Prize and Novelty Division, first prize, Terry Eastwood from Towanda. Southern Hospitality 86 Comes to FCHS. . . Who has my hammer? Where are the pliers? We're out of crepe paper! Whoops! Familiar sounds, familiar cries of distress to all juniors in that last minute rush to complete the best prom yet. Despite last minute changes and checking, this year again, the decorations were completed on time for that most delightful of all evenings, prom night. The evening festivities opened with the banquet which included the traditional reading of the class history, will, and prophecy. After enjoying a delicious meal, the next step for many was to adjourn for an hour or so for that last minute primping in preparation for the dance to follow. 87 ... as Juniors 88 Fete Seniors The Junior-Senior Prom! The highlight of the school year. With sweat and toil the juniors transformed the FCHS gymnasium into a palatial Southern Plantation garden, resplendent in its subtle decorations. The theme, Southern Cotillion, created a perfect atmosphere for dancing, despite the unseasonable weather.

The yearbook of any school is a record of the entire school year; the victories, the defeats, the smiles, the frowns, the buildings, the seasons, the people ... all must go between the covers of a book; a book such as the Crier. It takes a lot of time much work and a great deal of pride. Our staff this year has fulfilled every requirement. . . . Steve As Steve, during my four years on the staff I have come to know what a yearbook should be, yet more important I have come to realize what goes into producing such a yearbook. Many long hours are spent scrutinizing the copy; hours spent in instruction of the members for future yearbooks, and hours spent drawing, and redrawing, and redrawing good layouts. From an experience such as this, I feel a student gains a great deal. Along with journalistic techniques the staff members learn cooperation, understanding, and most of all RESPONSIBILITY! Without these we could never hope to produce a yearbook. Our aim this year has been to produce a more warm, informal type of book; one that in 20 years will bring back many fond memories of each student's high . Sara Our Thanks We, as the editors of the Crier, in behalf of the entire staff, wish to thank most sincerely; Mr. Joe Gardener and the American Yearbook Co. for their kind assistance; Mr. Dennis Evelsizer, our adviser, for the many hours he has spent; Blankenberg Photographers; Mr. Dave Kilgus for the countless hours he spent taking, developing and printing pictures; Mr. Lane for his cooperation. school career.
