As we leave your sheltering arms and se-t forth into a chaotic world, you can be confident that all your teachings shall not have been in vain. To you, our Alma Mater, we shall everpay tribute. e x '. it D sw' mwmwm Supt. W. M. Loy y Teacher of the argumentive economics and sociology class, senior class and student council advisor, and principal of our high scho-ol, W. M. Lfoy has done his job well. Supt. Loy is a capable advisor and a willing helper. During this school term, he promoted the Red Cro-ss drive, which netted the county a fine c-ontributionp also, Mr. Loy assisted in the sugar rationing, drafting the men i the district for the selective service, and in defense selling o stamps and bonds along with his regular duties as principal. For your services, Mr. Loy, we applaud you! l Board of Education The Board of Education, consisting -of five members, is lihe governing body of Drummer Township High Sch-ool. Their regu- lar meeting date is every two weeks, and at these meetings tliey discuss problems relating to school affairs. In the middle -of the year Mr. Ralph Adams moved, and the remainder of the term was served by Mr. Clarence Goodrich. We do not realize the time and effort these board memblers give to the running of the school. At this time we wish to con- gratulate and thank them in sincere appreciation for all they have done.

The theme of the 1942 annual was about the sea-the Drum- mer being the ship, tfte staff acting as the crew, and the stories carrying ship lingo. Dean Conrad, our dark-haired actor, edited the Drummer. He was ably assisted by LaDema Bunting, the senior lassie with the neat brown curls. Our energetic track queen, Betty Jean Swallow, headed the literary department. Wanda N-orman, Maryon Samet, and Glen McKeever were the business managers. Helen Heyer and Herbert Green were the sports' editors. The dramatic activities were written by Helen Summers. Ina Mae Otto handled the humorous side-lights. Ivan Lewis was the annual photo- grapher. Lucille Johnson edited the calendar, and Wanda Norman was society editor. Our advisor was Miss Mary K. Barton, and Miss Pearl Augspurger was business advisor. Mr. J-ohn Hensley was assistant advisor. The rest of the senior class acted as re- porters and typists. The senior class colors for the 1942 Drummer were silver and blueg the flower was the American beauty r-oseg and the motto- Followers today, leaders tomorrow. The annual was dedicated to the boys who have graduated from Drummer High and who are n-ow in the service of their country. Student Council The 1942 -student council has had a fairly large responsibility with the war effort being forwarded in school and the regular duties .of the group. Q Herbert Green, representative from the F. F. A., was presil- dent of the council. The junior class representative, Margareft Jean Cary, was vice-president. Our Maroon and White edit0i', Mary Dibble, was secretary, and the Drama Club president, Normlia O'Hare, treasurer. i Dean C.onrad, Dorothy Jordan, Edwin Sauer, and Margar t Jean Cary were the members of the dance committee. B-ob Hard- er was the representative from the freshman classy Gilbert Sauer, from the Cubs' Club, Jane McClure, of the sophomore class, Stain- ley Donoho, president of the senior class, and Martha Barroiw, from the Glee Club.

Maroon and White - 1941-42 Edited by Mary Dibb-le .and Norma, O'Hare, the Maroon and White has enide-d another successfiul year. The sales campaign in the fall netted about one hnucndred seven- ty-five subscriptions. The contest was condiucted 'by eight leaders: Frances Johnson, La Dema Bunting, Helen Heyer, Maryon Samet, Harry Harm, Virgil Harper, Stanley Leonard, and Bob Bryant. They were identified by flags -of different periods in our history. Maryon's and Frances's teams tied, and the lucky students were entertained at the movie, Harmon of Michigan , which the entire staff likewise enjoyed. In November Norma O'Hare, Mary Dibble, and Ella Mae Whal- lon attended the press conference in Gregory Hall at Champaign. Among the things they learned were paper make-up and how to write- -personality sketches. They also heard John Strohm tell of his trip to Soiuth America. The editors were assisted thro-xghciut the year b-y Mary Vir- ginia Potts, Margaret Jean Cary, Lorene Logan, and various sopho- mores. Because of her merit, Mary Virginia. was chosen e'ditor-in- chief for the 'coming year. Circulation manager, Maryon Samet, exchange editor, Ina Mae Otto 5 business managers, Ella Mae Whallon and Verona Andersong copy editor, Edwin Sauer, advertising solicitors, Helen Summers and B-ob Shirley, and the members of the art staff, Betty K. Jordan and Aiurdrey Veh-rs, have all helpe-d to make the 'Maroon and White what it is today.

Altogether there were seventy- two members in 1941-42, forty-five of whom were initiated in the fall at a wiener roast held in honor of the newcomers. The club officers were as follows: president, Dorothy J ordang vice-president, Dorthe Bennettg secretary, Rachel Johnson, anl treasurer, Betty Celeschi. Some of the activities that the club conducted were the cookie campaign and a chili dinner at school. This year instead of the club's having a Christmas party for the under-privileged children of Gibson City, twelve baskets were given to needy families. As these baskets were delivered, Christ- mas carols were sung. The club's biggest event took place February 18-the Mother and Daughter Banquet. The following girls, who had scored a certain number of points, were honored with pins: Dorothy Jor- dan, Dorthe Bennett, Margaret Meadows, Ina Mae Otto, Ethel Faye Bane, and Maryon Samet. N.

On October 29, Dean C-onrad, Dean Ma.in, Jack Schroeder, Jack Taylor, Harold Johnson, and Edwin Sauer were initiated into the club. After their going through many hair-raising experiences, basketball was played and refreshments were served. All of the F. F. A. Club, consisting of twenty-one boys, accompanied by Mr. Hensey and Mr. Brey- mann, attended the International Livestock Show at Chicago. This was the largest group -of boys in the F. F. A. that have ever taken a trip of this kind. 1941 was topped off with a progressive Christmas party held at Herb Green's and Jim Summer's. Games were played, refreshments served, and a gift exchange was held. The F. F. A. boys served the M-other and Daughter banquet on February 18. The annual Father and Son banquet was held on February 26, in the f-orm of a pot luck supper. This kind of supper was held to save for national defense.

Their officers were as follows: roll taker, Mary Va. Pottsg librarian, La Dema Bunting, . The roll taker f-or the eighth hour girls' glee club was Le-ona Zimmerman. Margaret J. Cary was the accompanist for -the sixth hour group, and Margaret Storm and Wanda Shields for the eighth hour. The girls have appeared at Farmer's Institute and at contests. The complete girls' chorus went to contest at Milford, Illinois, on March 6, 1942, and received a first division rating. They also were in Peoria -on May 1 and 2 at the sectional. Several soloists from the girls' club went to contest at Fair- bury, Illinois, on February 21, 1942. Glenna Ricketts and Verona Anderson represented the high voiceg for the medium voices were Darlene Love and Norma Rutledge, altcs were Martha Barrow and Helen Summers. Glenna and Darlene both went to the sec- tional and state contests, also. Besides the s-oloists, the girls' club was represented by the sextet. In this group were Verona An- derson, Darlene Love, Mary Diehl, Eleanor Beck, Mary Va. Potts, and Martha Barrow. At the first of the year Virginia Adams was in t.he group. Her place was then taken over by Norma Rutledge, and now Darlene Love is in the vacant soprano seat. The sextet also went to contests at Fairbury, Peoria, and La Salle. A great deal of credit goes to Lois Barrow, who took -over the first alto place when Mary Va. Potts was ill and unable to go to Peoria to the sectional on April 11, 1942. Without Lois's help the group would not have gone on to La Salle. x 1 . .-.LLL 1' I WAX ll My Ni W 1 Il W 1 I 'A 9 W ' Boys Glee Club ijt f A KV It 'xr ' ' It - There were two sets of boys taking glee club this year.

Then the two choruses combined Q ' to make twenty-seven boys on Thursday during the eighth hour. l l The boys have no-t appeared at any public functions thus far i because they are only beginning, but next year we hope to have a really good boys' chorus. Two soloists, Ivan Lewis and Con Kibble, went to contest at Fairbury, Illinois. Conrad also competed in Peoria and La Salle.

Priscilla Hopkins, a strict believer of girls being kept away from the opposite sex, was influenced by her glamorized nephew, Rex Hopkins. He decided to frame a fake name for her sedate school. Further he- went so far as to use an In the final outcome Rex converted his prim aunt into a imposter debutante as an example of charm. charming and glamorous person.

The Junior X play, Second Fiddle, by Guernsey L-e Pelley, was held May 8, 1942, in the Drummer High School Gymnasium. The entire action of the play took place in the living' room -of Aunt Marion Baker's winter home on the west coast of Florida. The season was late winterg the time, present day. The plot of the play lay in the fact that Harold Werple was married by mistake to the Wrong girl while rehearsing for his Wedding. His fiancee, Dorothy Van Straatfln, refusing to play second fiddle, jilted him, but in the end Harold found happiness with Joan, the girl he married while practicing' for his own cere- mony. Cubs' Club The Cubs' Club, which proved to be such a success in 1944, turned out this year's Maroon and White staff. This junior on- ganization, which gave them their training in journalism, was again carried on this year by writers who hope to be great columnists some day. At their first meeting they chose Margaret Thompson., president, Lois Barrow, vice-president, and Rogene Mulvany as secretary-treasurer. The Cubs were not given definite assignments but were to hand in stories for each issue in order to earn enough points to be -on the staff. The- Valentine issue was printed by the Cubs, and it looked as if the future staff would be an excellentl one, since out of twenty-eight members that joined the clubq twenty-three became staff writers.

Henselmen Win Honors Despite some very tough competition, the football team fin- ished the season with five victories and a tie for second place in the Wauseca League. They lost -only three games and those to exceptionally strong teams. Drummer started fast and won their first four games: Pax- ton, Rantfoul, Onarga, and Gilman. The team journeyed to Mil- ford tlo play in Milford's home-coming and lost 26-6. They lost their next two games to Watseka and Eureka before they found themselves in time to push back Paxton in the annual Armistice Day game. Altogether there were twenty-two boys wh-0 received letters, and sixteen of them will report f-or duty again this fall. That is a good s-tart for any coach. Bill Bryant was the fellow chosen by the team to captain them through the coming season, and you can count on a good job. Letters and awards were presented at the Football Banquet. Coach D-on Heap -of Illin-ois Wesleyan was the main speaker. be V 211' G Football Lettermen Shoestring Okey: He was given this name because of the fact that he tackled so low.

Winning eight of their ten league games, the team clinched the crown and climax- ed the m-ost successful season that the school has enjoyed. Plenty of height and improved shooting were the big factors in placing this year's team ahead of others. Three senior boys, Captain Dean Shull, Bob Royal, and Burdette Collins, played out- standing basketball and were the basis of the team. Not to be out-done, however, the boys like Robertson, Wieczorek, B-onnen, Hudson, and Thomas turned in fine performances and played a large part in the victories. Drummer staged several games besides the league contests. They defeated Melvin, University High, and battled Bloomington High all the way before losing by a close margin. Bloomington and Melvin especially were among the better rivals in this section. The team had its usual luck in the tournaments. It lost tq Melvin in the Ford C-ounty , and didn't get far in the Pontiac Tourney. Drummer took the edge on its fold rivals this year byf winning both of its games with Paxton. The climax of the seasonI however, was the one point victory over Watseka 'which won unI- disputable championship in the league. A Victory Dance was held in honor of the team for its fine showing. I Five juniors who saw servfce this year will be back nex and will be fine material for any coach to start a season. Als there were some freshmen and sophomores that looked promisin and br-ought the B team through with one of its best years.

Boys like Windle, Bradd, and Hudson can be expected to give anybody a good fight. Bradd lst Row-B. Bryant, W. Han- son, H. Rutledge, G. Bradd, G. Barrow, B. Collins, M. Hanson, H. Rutledge, B.

Due to the united efforts of Captain Dean Shull, Center Burdette Collins, and Guard Bob Royal, the D.T.H.S. basketball squad won the Wauseca League championship: a feat that had never been accomplished before. The victory was notI just an accident. Ever since they were in the first grade twelve years ago, these three fellows have been working to win the basket-I ball crown. I Dean Shull followed his brother Roy into the captaincy this year. Of the three senior boys, Dean could handle the ball better than any of the others. If you were to ask one of his opponents what he th-ought, I'm sure he would say that Dean was one ofI the best dribblers in the league. Although Dean wasn't a high, sc-orer, he could always be counted 'on to come through with two -or three thirty footers per game, I Royal started his basketball as a freshman. Bob was one oii a very select group who can say that they played with the first team as a freshman. During his sophomore year he was a meml ber of the first ten, and his last two years he won a berth on th first five. As a junior Bob led the Wauseca League in points scfored and this year gained a right to second place. Bob remarksl, A large share of my success has been due to my team matesI, especially my two senior classmates, Dean and Rip. : Collins, though he had been playing basketball for many years, didn't show his remarkable ability until the middle -of tht '41 season, when he hit the lineup with a bang. Rip Won the right to be king of the scorers in the Wauseca League this year by piling up the grand total of 103 points. I Coach Hensel sums up all that can be said ab-out these three boys with the following: The three best seniors we've ever had. So to the three boys who did a lot toward bringing the Vifall- seca League championship to D.T.H.S., we say, Nice goin , fellows! , I I I K 4 I HK ffi 1 in 1 N fs Xlx' -Q W? 14 .9 ' x --. Q ' I in.. . ,i.. K fl f Aug il -a. Intramural Sports for Boys For the benefit of the boys in school who did not go out for basketball, Coach Hensel inaugurated something new so that more boys could play during the winter. Eight boys were selected to act as captains, and they in turn chose ten boys to play on their A schedule was worked out t-o allow each group to play all team. of the other teams once. The games were played after school one day a week. The members on the winning team were presented with gold basketballs. The idea worked well. The boys liked it, there was keen com- petition, and it was good for the boys. When the schedule was completed, Captain Carson's team, the League Leaders, had not lost a game and became champions of the Intramural. His team included Hudson, Thomas, Riblet, Auterman, Hanson, H. Rutledge, and Sauer. The other teams in order of their standing were the Cellar F-ellers, Bears, All Stars, Blackhawks, Hot Shots, Tr-ophy Winners, and Five Aces. Physical Education Classes The boys' gym classes did many things this year. They varied from baseball and basketball to track and tumbling. Of these the one form of recreation that produced more well develop- ed bodies than any other was tumbling. Drummer was not lacking in artists in this field. Henry Windle, perhaps the best known of these boys, was the leader in developing new tricks. A large share of his time was spent in the gymnasium diving over hlorses and working on the bar. On Patrons' Night, the occasion that all boys w-ork for, Henry was slightly hampered by a twisted ankle. The audience probably never realized this fact. Another one of these supermen was Bud Okey. The feat of which he is most proud is being able to do a head stand, way up high, on top of three tables. There were many other things that these boys learned to do: diving over five boys lying side by side, climbing a rope, diving through hoops of fire, and walking a ladder. The show that was put on for Patrons' Night was repeated April 28 for the American Legion. Juniors Capture Intramural Honors The fighting juni-ors, captained by Verona Anderson and Eleanor Beck, were victors over the seniors on Friday, January 16, - 1942. Th-e score at the end was 11-5. Eleanor Beck copped two of the points, Mary V. Potts, two, Sis Jac-ob, two: Margaret Fasking, twog and three points were made by Verona Anderson. The de- feated seniors' points were scored by Summers and Barrow. Helen m-ade three of them and Martha two. The sophom-ore-junior game ended with the scoreboard rqad- ing 16-9. Tuesday night, January 13, was the scene of the freshmlan- senior brawl. The seniors after a long fight manipulated fthe score s-o that it read 11-3 with the graduates winning. The freshman-junior fight ended 11-6 with the junio , course, winning. The sophomores and seniors burned the hard p o ' to the tune of 12-6 with the sophisicates winning. i , ' lst Row--E. Beck, V.

The second program was A Wee Bit of Scotch consist- ing of the Caledonian Male Quartet and their pianist decked out in Scotch Highland costumes. They contributed songs, humor, and dialect for the ,entertainment of the students of Drummer. A Novelty Trio proved a great sensation, including a violinist, pianist, and singer, who presented a variety of music. With these three people travelled the national champion baton twirler. This program seemed to make a hit with everyone and was greeted with laughs galore. One of the most exciting and thrilling presenta- tions of the year was Mr. Ba1e's enactment of Di: Jekyl and Mr. Hyde. Every student stood horrified and spell-b-ound at the amazing performance. The Magic of Science astonished every- one with its scientific wonders. Thrilling Adventures of Africa were told by Mr. Channing Beebe, a z-oologist, with the aid of slides and various articles collected while in Africa. His startling encounters with the dreaded ants and elephants of Africa kept the audience intensely interested. To top off the series of the year was Juggling Along Life's Highways and the presentation of Daddy Long-Legs by Miss Web-er from WLS. So ended another successful year of entertainment for Drummer students. Kau'fman's Herman gets attention from Ag boys. Relaxation Delluxe At School Dances The stu-dents of Drummer who like to truck on down the avenue did just that at the first scho-ol dance' on October 9, ll941, in the cafeteria. Besides dancing there were ping pong and other games for those who didn't feel in the mood to jitterbfug. The dhap- erons for this dance were Miss Barton, Miss McCrory, Mr. Soper, Mr. Loy and -M'iss Huckleberry. The evening of Novem-ber 14, 1941, saw many boys and igirls hiustling to the dance. Each couple swinging and swaying to ,such songs as Whispering Grass, Now I Lay Me D-own to Dream, Faithful to America , and Get the Moon Out of Your Eyes . Mr. Breyman, Mr. and Mrs. Hensey, Miss Johnson, and Miss Thomassen acted as chaperons. During the holiday festivities the Drummer students jo-urnieyed to the high school to spend the evening dancing on December, 26, 1941. The cafeteria was decked out in gay: holiday colors. Each lad swung his lassie to the tunes Yours and Blue Champa ne, songs popular at that time. Special games were played for ihosc whose feet became tired. The chaperons for this dance were Mr. and Mrs. Hensey, Mr. Andersen, and Mr. Loy. Perhaps some thorught tramps had invaded the cafeteriat on March 210, 1942, ibut the pupils voted for a Hard Times Dance' for that night. The decorations consisted of piles of straw around, the room in keeping with the theime. Virgil Harper and Dorothy Jofrdan were voted the best boy and girl couple dancersg Betty Swallow and Verona Anderson, as the best girl couple dancers. Each boyi and girl numaged through the old clothes inthe attic to find something suitable to wear. The Drummer students conserved on paper for national defense by having this sort of dance. The chaperons were Mr. and Mrs. Andersen, Mr. Breyman, Miss Druieringer, and Miss Augspurger. ' The last dance the stuvdents enjofyed was held -on April 17, 17942. The decoration theme consisted of gay spring 'colors of yellow, ink, blue, violet, and red. No special chaperons were chosen, bu the faculty and Miss Spry were invited. Tangerine, Happy in Lowe, Remember Pearl Harbor , and Easter Parade were a few oil the songs to which the prupils danced. Patrons' Day Play Standing-H. Thorson, L. Johnson, F. Johnson. Sitting-S.
