With the building of the new machine and building trades shops last yeer anf now the gymnasium, our school is expanding immensely. We certainly have a great deal of which to be proud. But let us give credit where it is due, to our school board who have worked so diligently and faithfully to present the needs of the school to the public and make possible these much needed improvements. Members of the school board were Griffith Reid, president, Lawrence Worley, Richard Uatson, O. Robert Hoover, and Arthur Geithman. Hr. Yorley has been active on the school board for the pest eight years. This school board will be succeeded by a new board elected for the Genoa-Kingston Unit District. Mr. Reid has been elected as a member of this new board, however, and will continue to serve the schools of the district. STUDENT COUNCIL This year the Student Council has been more active than ever before. At the beginning of the year several members attended the Northeast-Northwest District Convention held at the J. Sterling High School in Cicero, Illinois. They came home with many construc- tive ideas for the betterment of our high school. In February, the Council members visited neighboring schools to see if they could get more ideas for a smoother running school. During the year they raised money by selling magazines, by sponsoring the annual Homecoming Dance, and by selling refreshments at a dartball tournament. March 25-26, three Council members, Pat Bolz, Frieda Brian, and Betty Westerbeck, attended the State Student Council Convention which was held at the Congress Hotel in Chicago. The money in our treasury will be contributed to the school for the new master clock which has already been installed. 5 ' School Board Arthur Geithman, Lawrence Worley, Griffith Reid, 0.

W? 1 Q' W 1 History of the Forty-niners In September, 1936, twenty-six eager, wide-eyed children entered the first grade. It didn't take our teacher, Miss Voss, long to get things under way and we were soon busy at nreadin', writin', and 'rithmetic.' And oh, how we banged in that rhythm band playing uTen Little Indiansu! Miss Elmblad greeted us with a cheery nGood morning and sit down and be quiet,u and had the class under control in no time. we had fun learning arithmetic through handling money and goods in our little post office and general store. That year we were all thrilled at being in the annual operetta. On we traveled to third grade to greet Miss Burson. That year our varied talents came to light and we made Christmas gifts for our parents. Several members of our class had leading roles in the operetta. Our fourth-grade teacher, Miss Burger, aroused our interest in animals and birds, and we went on many nature hikes. we started playing the lively game, nBoys Chase Girls.n Enough said! Miss Larson led us through fifth grade. Carl Ebert and Ann Holroyd were nHansel and Greteln in the operetta of the same name. we put our artistic ability in use making charcoal drawings and work- ing with clay. For the first time we were greeted by a man teacher, Mr. Peterson. Trials and tribulations were great during that year, but many happy times will be remembered, too. we closed our grade school days with a class picnic at the Forest Preserve. That proved to be a highly entertaining and interesting expedition. In our first year of junior high school we were awed by the vastness of the building and the antics of the idolized upper class- men. Miss Barton was our teacher and with her help we carried out many successful activities. As our second year of junior high school began, we felt more at ease and acted accordingly. we will remember Mrs. Baker as the kind teacher who gave so much help and advice. The hayride rage hit us when we were nfreshiesn and several class hayrides were held. They certainly were a lot ff fun.

Our class, that year, originated what was to become the annual Valentine Dance. Our class was very well represented in sports, music, and other activities of the school. As juniors, we gave a very successful play, nDear Papa,f a comedy based on the lives of an American family. Many of the boys became leaders in sports and the class was very well represented in band, orchestra, and the dance band. we went all out on work for the Junior-Senior Prom. we were pleased to hear so many favorable com ents about the theme, Mardi Gras, and the decorations used to portray it. we chose our class colors, flower, and mottog we acquired the appropriate name of nThe Forty-niners. Our senior year activities began with the sponsoring of the first all-school party, a barn dance. Carole Benson was elected queen for the annual Homecoming Dance. Skip Day, April l, 1949, wasa very enjoyable day for the class. We left Genoa at six o'c1ock and arrived at our destination, Milwaukee,'Wisconsin, at nine. We visited the courthouse and Safety Building during the morning. The afternoon was spent doing as we pleased. At 6 p.m. we met at the Schroeder Hotel for dinner. Dancing and the movies were the after dinner recreations. At eleven o'clook we started on the long, long journey home. we arrived in Genoa at 2 a.m. a tired sleepy, and very happy bunch of seniors. Mr. Roberts, who substi- tuted for Mr. Louderback, and Miss Tiffany accompanied us on our trip. The senior play nNo Moon Tonightn was given May 6. It was a farce comedy directed by Mrs. Theodore Soli. high-lighted by musical numbers, the reading of many other interesting acts. The year draws to laureate services and Graduation exercises. Ten class have completed twelve years of school as Genoa schools. They are: Harlan Clausen, Anna Class Night was this yearbook, and an end with Bacca- of the graduating classmates in the Mae Phillips, Bill Skinner, Marlene Davis, Ann Holroyd, Jane Morgan, Catherine Prain, Dolores Schnur, Dolores Swanson, and Frank Kellogg. Mary Vandling and Bill Sherman were in the first grade at Kingston and are mem- bers of this graduating class. As seniors we look back on very eventful, happy school days, we look forward to a challenging future. ' 29 Prophecy Adventure-loving people as we are, Miles Johnson, Bill Sherman, and I, Ann Holroyd, decided to take an exciting round the world voyage. Many unexpected things occurred during our trip, as you shall find out by reading our diary. A Globegadder's Diary - 1971 Friday, April 18: Have started our round the world voyage: all omens point to an exciting trip, for the strangest of circumstances brought us in contact with a few of our classmates. we were speeding around a corner in New York City and just had time to catch a glimpse of a figure, in not very immaculate white, sitting dejectedly on a curbstone. It was our classmate, Dan Bonne. He had achieved his ambition of being a white-collar man in a big city. we waved frantically, but discovered, to our disappointment, that he was asleep. When we arrived at the dock, we perceived a familiar crewecut jut- ting above one of the many barrels along the dock. The head was nod- ding vigorously to the tune of nOh, Come All Ye Sinners.n As we drew closer, we saw a woman ringing a bell for all she was worth with one hand and extending a tin cup with the other. The man with the crewecut was busily beating an old drum. No, could it be? It wus! Pat and Clyde, of all people! They were devotedly supporting tho Salvation Arnq' with their lusty voices. They looked entrancing in their drab gray uniforms. - However, the most alarming thing in all the day's experiences hap- pened when we were putting out to sea. As we were gazing at the Statue of Liberty for a last look, we discovered, at the charming lady's head, a person on top waving a white bandanna. Using our binoculars, we dis- covered the figure was none other than Lawrence Rubeck jauntily perched on the top, evidently much at home- Inquiring around, we found that he had perched there for six weeks in an attempt to pass the former record Monday, April 21: Aboard the USS Cog for our trip. Found our state- rooms very comfortable. Suddenly, without any preliminaries, up the ganrplank came someone completely hidden under two immense trunks, which were dumped unceremoniously before us. From under them Norene Hayden, Chief Stewardess, rose to her full, imposing height. we leazned from her that the two explorers, Bettie Westerbeck and Dolores Swanson, were on the vessel bound for ancient Sheba. Now who ever would have thought Bettie and Dolores would do that! Seeing so many Prankanstein pictures must have given them courage to set out on this daring adventure. 50 we were introduced to the Captain at dinner tonight. It was Ronald CPeteJ Kellogg! He informed us that he entered the Navy after he graduated from school. we spent an enjoyable evening with him fat his expensel. He told us many stories of the sea. Whether they were true or not he did not say. At nine, we went down to dance. An old familiar grin greeted us from the leader of the jazz orchestra, and despite the black face make- up, we recognized Frank Kellogg. At the end of the selection we went over to say HHe11o.N As we drew closer, we noticed it was an all girl orchestra. Leave it to Frank. He introduced us to two of his vunieit additions, Mary Vandling, torch singer, and FRita Stevens, dancer. we found that Mary had changed her name to Bunny O'Rourke and Rita, to Fluffy Furr. Friday, April 25: Finally landed in Sweden. On our way to Stockholm, we stopped at a farmhouse to get some fish, and, to our surprise, we were greeted by Arlette Johnson, looking plu p and prosperous, and her husband Bob. we visited awhile with them and then continued on the way to Stockholm. Arriving'at Stockholm, we were met by a prominent society leader, Joan Barcus. Her fondness for romance had been leading her a merry chase with the Swedes. Joan insisted we stop at her hotel suite for a short visit. She stopped her new Tucker by a huge two-story garage and showed us her large collection of cars. Same old Joan! Monday, April 28: we are stopping in Czechoslavakia for a time to study its entrancing language. Went to the Royal Palace. While gazing at the works of art, we perceived someone hurrying along the corridor taking huge strides. we could not be mistaken, that bouncy little walk betrayed Rosie Polka. After an hour's chat with this emnress, we were all of the same ooinion, that Rosie had not changed a bit. She still had that coy blush and still used those great long words. fThat's what fools the CzechsJ Thursday, April SO: In Constantinople at last! The trip from Czecho- slovakia was terrific. is soon as we got to Turkey we began to hear rumors that the famous Pasha, Harlan Clausen, had just selected another wife for his harem. Oh, for the life of a Turk! Friday, May ls Cairo, Egypt. While visiting a native quarter, we were attracted by the jungle music issuing from the bazaar. we wandered in that direction and came upon a native dance in progress. To our amaze- ment, we recognized two dark-skinned beauties-Anna Mae Phillips and Jane Morgan. 31 Wednesday, May 15: Gee, that trip through the Suez Canal was certainly a long one. Stopped at Aden for an hour, and there in the sands of the desert, we discovered Harold CDuckyJ Phillips writing religious disser- tations which will convert the world. He has lived the life of a her- mit for ten whole years. Wednesday, May 22: In the heart of Africa-thrills and more thrills. As we were passing down the muddy waters of the Gunpoyo River, we saw two figures moving stealthily about in the thickets. When they stepped into the clearing and saw us, they stared with unbelief. we finally recognized them as our old classmates Bill Skinner and Carole Benson! Bill's hair trailing down his back was really a sight to behold. He also had developed a long flowing beard. we were sure to hear an ex- citing story from these classmates. Bill had left Mavis to take care of their home and he had set out in search of the elusive uCoo-Coon bird and had, by chance, run across Carole, who had fled to the deepest jungles to await the growth of her hair after she had whacked off too much. Incidently, she wanted to find the nPowePow' pup. They 'had found instead, swinging from the branches of trees, eating bananas, and throwing ooconuts, the famous butterfly scientist, Eddie Lange. Never would have thought Eddie and butterflies would mix. Sunday, May 26: we left lovely Africa today. The river was very choppy. As we leaned over the rail, not from desire, we assure you, we sighted a small tug coming along side. Among the new' passengers was Ruth Melton. we found Ruth looking very well, although she was starting to gray at the temples. She told us that she was now painting and that she and her husband Stan were on their annual vacation. we spent the rest of the trip to Alaska with them. Monday, June 3: Reached Alaska at last. Near the Pole we found Frieda Brian enjoying life in her igloo and eating whale fat with as much rel- ish as she used to eat Milky Way candy bars in G. T. H. S. She told us the north was very fascinating and her igloo was plastered with pic- sures of her North Pole Pin-up boys. Not bad! Miles and Bill were dfseppointed in not finding any girls' pictures though. Frieda told us tiat one of her best neighbors was Marlene Davis, who with Dick had some to the north to sell refrigerators. She said refrigerators were a fad in Alaska. Now who ever would have thought that! we drove around by Marlene and Dick's igloo and were surprised to I. -ind reon signs all around it, and in the front yard was parked their Little old red Ford, rigged with skis to travel the frozen terrain. 32 Friday, June 7: we have new started the long journey home. Tuesday, June ll: we stopped off at Catalina today for refueling. Bill and Miles were attracted to the slim figure of a blonde basking on the beach. Upon closer observance of this delectable sight, we dis- covered Dolores Schnur. She told us she was head of a large yeast fac- t0I'ye Wednesday, June 12: Arrived in San Francisco. Visited the Paramount Studios. Found Madame Gladys Pulliam at work in her latest picture, One Love Have I. We arrived at a most inopportune moment-- The Great John, her husband in real life, had stepped on her train. We barely had time to dodge a chair, which she heaved in his direction. Her costumer was trying to constrain her, so we decided to retreat in haste. Thursday, June 13: Noticed an article in the paper advertising a fight between the great lady fighters, Griswold and Barry. Thinking this would be interesting, we went to the arena. Lo and behold! They IBIS our classmates, Elaine and Mary: They showed great form and their mus- cular co-ordination was perfect. Cnc of our most unexpected happenings was to find that Kate Prain was in the ring also, not as a fighter, but as their manager and trainer. we learned later that she had given up her nursing career for something more exciting. we met them afterwards and had a short chat. Monday, June 17: On our way to Sacremento, we stopped at a small town for a coke and drove up to a drive-in. The proprietor was Miss Dorothy Beilke. To our surprise, she had turned out to be an old maid, fwho ever would have expected that?J She said she had come out to the West to get away from it all, but had started a nice business and was content working day and night. Friday, June 21: Bill and Miles left today to go back to their jobs of ditch diggers. CIt looks like Miss Dodds' prediction was right.l Monday, June 24: Home at last. Had a very enjoyable vacation, but can't afford many more at the same price. Back to work scrubbing floors. Ho hum!

Bobby-soxer Susan fGladys Pulliam, mails the application--unknown to her sister--and the fire- works begin. Result No. le Mr. Terry fBill Skinner,, am teur astronomer, builder of living-room telescopes, winner of quiz programs, and absent- minded as they come, gets the job. Just like that! Of course Mr. Terry knows nothinf of the application, or acceptance--or of the fussy little man with nose glasses who arrives waving a contract. Mrs. Terry CNorene Hayden, clinches the contract-signing--fraudu- lent or not. She's tired of poverty and leaky roofs. The youngsters, certain they'll all go to jail if found out, try to keep Mr. Sanders away from their father and any further knowledge of his incompetence. Bill fBill Sherman, trots him around and around the block explaining a Rose Bowl game, and the girls force him into a chair, thrusting the Ladies Home Journal into his unwilling hands. Finally, he's whisked away to the kitchen by the redoubtable maid, Mrs. Winkle fFrieda Brian, who mistakes him for a poor relation with time on his hands. In the meantime, Jim fMiles Johnson,, the high school coach in love with Ellen, gets involved in the fracas. It's his uncle, 'l . Duncan CLawrence Rubeck,, another representative from Chicago, who arrives to uncover the fraud, and stays to read the Terry manuscript Creelly good, he decides,, develops an interest in the Terry telescope, and experiences the discomfort of the leaky Terry roof. Oh, yes, there's a whole living room full of ncharactersn with opened u brellas. Among them is Barney fHarlan Clausen,, a loud-mouth, red faced garafeman, who is constantly underfoot, puttering around, with the telescope--that is, until Mrs. Uinkle, after repeated threats, puts him to work repairing the roof. Mr. Terry, himself a study of a genuis at work, flits in and out of the room munching tofst, nervously clattering his typewriter, scratching his head, and of course being completely oblivious to people and things that go on right under his nose. But he doesn't turn out to be such a dud after all. Amateur or not, he finally gets the job. Ellen and Jom patch up their differences, Susan and Bill breathe a little easier about the whole dealg Mrs. Terry finds in her husband a man she can be oroud ofg and they all live happily ever after--in Chicano. Mrs. Bracken CDolores Schnur,, Mrs. Terry's snobbish sister, and Mr. Sanders CFrank Kellogg, add to the complications. 77 Row Row' Row Row Row Raw Rm Row Row Row Raw Row 1 2: 5: 4 5: 1 2: 54 4: 1 2: 5 BAND Ellen Skinner, Marjorie Strack, Helen Ball, Myron Flartaneon, Lois Melton, Mr. Hubbell, Laverna Gustafson, Rita Stevens, Pat Bolz, Norma Baker, and Clyde Nohney.

The 'Cogsu placed second in the Kishwaukee Tournament and won the Conference champion- ship with 6 wins and l defeat. The second team went undefeated the whole season and won the championship. In the Kishwaukee Tournament, Genoa beat Huntley 57 to 32.in the first game. In the second game the nCogsn defeated Plato Center by a score of 44 to 28. Genoa played Hampshire for the championship, but lost by a score of 45 to 56. By this defeat a second place trophy was brought back to JTHS, In the DeKalb Holiday Tournament, the nCogsn encountered Riverside, a tall, highly-rated team, which proved too much for them after the first half. Cenoa played DeKalb in the first game of the Regional Tournament and was defeated by 54 to 29. DeKalb went on to win the Regional. The season got off to a slow start by losing the first two games to Woodstock and Belvidere. In the third game, with Kirkland, Genoa won by three points and after that the team started clicking. One of the outstanding games was wdth Marmion, a team that ranked about 12th in the state. Genoa took the lead and kent a five point lead most of the game. This game, like many of the rest, was won because of team play and everyone's giving his best. Much credit should be given to Coach Smith for all his work and extra time spent in order to win. Mr. Davenport did a swell job while the Coach was absent to help the team win three important games. All of our home games fexcept one, were played in the new gym. The gym gave more people a chance to see the team play and the playing improved greatly on the new floor. Three times during the season Genoa won six games in a row, but could never win the seventh. The first team was composed of: Bill Skinner, Bill Sherman, Eddie Lange, Harlan Clausen, and Miles Johnson, all '49ers. They were ably assisted by Kenny Nelson, a junior, and Jim Stoda, a sopho- more. Eddie Lange and Bill Skinner were voted most valuable and Miles Johnson was captain. The second team had a perfect season. Those on the Junior Var- sity were: Vernon Anderson, Bob Harrison, Ray Melton, Clyde Mohney, Stuart Sherman, Augie wasterbeck, and Chuck Westphal. This team was competently captained by Clyde Mohney. Those on the Reserves were: Conro, Fenstermaker, Guse, Hodgson, Oscar Johnson, Frank Kell0gE, L0y, Morgan, Nichols, Niss, Parker, Ross, Ronald Stoda, and White. 93 The three outstanding cheerleaders deserve a great deal of credit for their work. They were Anna Mae Phillips and Carole Benson, of the class of 'U9, and Laverna Gustafson, of the class of '50. BASKETBALL BANQUET The Basketball Banouet res held in the new gym, March 28. A pot- luck supper was served to about 250 people. Mr. 3ennett acted as toastmaster, telling some of his famous anecdotes and introducing the speakers. George Dertinger, DeKalb basketball coach, spoke a few min- utes on small town basketball and then Albert Willis, Ixecutive Secre- tary of the Illinois High School Athletic Association, spoke on uTrends in High School Athletics.u Co munity singing was also enjoyed and a movie of the 1948 Uorld Series was shown. Dancing followed at the end of the program with music furnished by the high school dance orchestra. i Coach Smith awarded major letters to the following: Eddie Lange, Harlan Clausen, Clyde Mohney, Bill Sherman, Miles Johnson, Bill Skinner, Jim Stoda, and Kenny Nelson. Minor awards went to: Vernon Anderson, Bob Harrison, Ray Melton, Stuart Sherman, Augie Uesterbeck, Chuck Uestphal, Trancis Conro, Tom Tenstermaher, Richard Guse, Leon Hodgson, Oscar Johnson, Frank Kellogg, Fiedellas Loy, Pat Morgan, Jim Niss, Charles Nichols, Lloyd Parker,'Carl Ross, Ronald Stoda, and'Dick White.
