The 1969 edition of the Hall Light attempts to capture the spirit of the many activities which have taken place this year. High School is a place where each student belongs, a place where leadership is attained, a place where self-responsibility is gained, a place where each student becomes part of a team. This is Hall High School. HIGH SCHOOL HIGH SCHOOL High School is constantly active and this activity is important to education. Activity is in the classroom, whether it is the mind or the audible activity of class discussion. We learn by doing and by participating. There is activity after school where we learn co-ordination. teamwork, and more responsibility. Good citizens, good people, must be active in mind and body. High School teaches us to be where the action is. ADMINISTRATION Herbert Klein Harry Volant Carl Blum John Bussa President Walter Bernatavich Secretary Dom Rochetto Joseph Fitton Clyde Hoffert Board of Education The Board of Education is comprised of seven men who generously donate a great amount of time and effort to make our school fit to educate and train our students as future citizens. The Board of Education is headed by Mr. John Bussa who serves in the capacity of president. Serving along with these seven men is Mr. Walter Bernatavich, the secretary. The members of this body have the gratitude of the students for their interest in our welfare. Recognizing the needs of a democratic society and the specific needs of Hall High School District. our school is striving to provide for the maximum development of the intellectual, physical, and social potentials of each student. The curriculum and activities are provided to develope an informed, responsible citizenry, a foundation for a vocation and higher education, and rewarding use of leisure time. The evaluation of how well Hall High School accomplished its goals will be determined by the kind of a citizen each student becomes in future years. Vance Hamann. Principal Enormous emphasis is centered on the process of education in this present world society. Possibly so much so that the stage of development of the physiological and psychological structures of men have lagged the environmental charge to the point of becoming dangerous. The achievements of science and its complex impart upon society has outrun the educational emphasis placed upon human relations with respect to. as well as for. each other. Redirected education maintained over several generations could help divorce the mind of people from the restricted and narrow views concerning the various shapes, sizes, and colors of protoplasm. This will be costly and will not be easy as it must overcome many of the natural developments of this same protoplasm, man. in his post limited and restricted environment. Charles Keyser.

Mr. Mike Gravetti has been driving for Mr. King for 2 years. Substitutes who are ready to take over any of the five student bus routes are Mr. Marion Brasher.

Record-wise, the team did not fare too well, but they were a much better team than their two and seven reveals. Both the offensive and defensive units progressed as the season wore on. Despite their record, the Red Devils proved to be a spirited squad which should lend strong support to next years varsity squad. Hall succeeded in placing eleven members on the North Central All-Conference Team. Attaining first team honors were seniors Kent Kasik. Mark Abrahams. Mike Bianchi. and Dale Kalman.

They spent a week at a summer cheerleading clinic at Illinois State University, sponsored by the American Cheerleaders Association. They earned a first, a second, and an honorable Varsity Cheerleaders disguise as hippies to perform in a mass pep rally at camp. New Sponsor mention and returned home with quite a few new cheers. The varsity cheerleaders also trained the aspiring freshman and sophomore cheerleaders. Under the direction of Mrs. Rod-riques, they conducted the frosh-soph cheerleading tryouts in the fall. Linda Hassler Kickapoo Spirit On September 6, six frosh-soph girls were chosen to represent the Mighty Kickapoos for the 1968-69 season. They are: sophomores. Sandy Resetich (captain). Laurie Brock, and Marcy lattoni; freshmen. Gina Pienta. Laurie Samolinski. and Kathy Chiado. These girls along with the Varsity cheerleaders, who were sponsored by Mrs. Rodriquez, undertook many projects. such as bakesales and donut sales, to raise money to buy flowers and trophies for the senior sportsmen. They may all be commended on doing a fine job of keeping up Kickapoo Spirit throughout the year. Frosh-soph lead cheers at a pep session in the football stadium.

Many times the team could not maintain momentum to win. At a few games the varsity players showed they could play with almost any team. This year the team did not lose badly to any team with only a few exceptions. Hall showed they could and would play with any teams by rising to the occasion and playing good games against such outstanding teams as Mendota. to which they lost by only a few points.

Lack of Height Creates Problems The Freshman Basketball team had a large turnout for their first experience of the game on high school level. Through experience, the boys learned new and different fundamentals of the game. Playing an “A” and B” team, each boy showed what he could do. A lack of height presented a real problem for our teams. We were at a height disadvantage throughout the season. Rick Swank attempts a shot during the Ottawa game. Football managers for this year were: Top, Left to Right.

Devilettes Add Class Hall’s group of fancy-stepping young ladies, who call themselves the Devilettes. are now in their second year of organization. They are rapidly increasing their popularity in our community. The officers were sent to summer camp for five days, and they learned new routines, one which includes the use of hula hoops. This helped the group to add to their quality and vary their performances. The Devilettes have increased their activities this year, and wherever the band goes the Devilettes “tag along”. The Devilettes, along with the band, are now known as the Marching Red Devils”. They have marched in parades and added class to halftime performances. The officers. Sue Pinter, Captain; Mary Lou Ro-chetto. Co-Captain; Ellen Piacenti, Secretary; and Gloria Baracani, Treasurer, with Mr. Wilson as their sponsor, practice every day with the group to keep them high-stepping and confident. They have done a fine job. So hats off” to the Devilettes and congratulations for a second successful year.

Hall Light Initiates New Layout Work on the 1968-69 Hall Light began last August when the co-editors Mary Jo Fitton and Laurie Palgia. together with the staff advisor, Mr. Brasher, met to plan the layout, pictures, division pages, dedication, and cover. From then on, every spare moment of study halls, week nights and after school was filled with the fun, the confusion, and sometimes the disaster of putting the yearbook together. The highlight of the year came when the books were delivered, and everyone was finally able to see the finished product. The other highpoint of the year was the acquisition of a special room for working on the yearbook. Mr. Brasher worked very hard, along with many members of the staff, to paint the room, and to find furniture that could be used. With a special room, the staff was able to set up a better working schedule and organize their equipment. Those in charge of the ads were, left to right, FIRST ROW: C. Stegnar. D Fassino.

Hall Times Adopts New Format The past year saw the TIMES and the DISPATCH strive for a new maturity in an attempt to serve the high school as vehicles of both news and student opinion. Photographs, news stories and student opinions, moved toward more realism and honesty. The co-editors at the helm of all this energy were Mary Lou Rochetto. in charge of the TIMES, and Debbie Eustice. in charge of the DISPATCH. It was the second year for faculty advisor Mr. Frank Colmone. Each issue of the TIMES and the DISPATCH was eagerly awaited by the student body, not only for their features, but also for their commentary on current campus events. While not everyone agreed with every opinion expressed in the TIMES and in the DISPATCH, few could deny that they have become truly student newspapers in their own way.

Chorus meets everyday during 17th and 18th periods in Mrs. Juette-meyer’s English room. This year, as in the past, the chorus entertained Cherry and Ladd Grade Schools at Christmas, and later in the year they presented a concert at Lincoln Grade School. Different from past years. Chorus was divided into two groups, each being sent to study hall on assigned days. The main purpose for this division was to allow Mrs. Juettemeyer to devote more time to one section and to issue individual help. Singing is a lot of fun but also requires much effort from both the director and singers. Mrs. Juettemeyer. the director, did an excellent job in devoting time and energy to better the chorus this year. Congratulations on a job well done by the chorus and Mrs. Juettemeyer. FRONT ROW: J.

Novice debaters went to a tournament in Rock Falls. Varsity debaters traveled to Kewanee for a debate tournament. Weekend debates were held at the University of Illinois, and at Augustana College in Rock Island, Illinois. The debate team set a series of goals and practiced to achieve them.

Every Tuesday and Thursday night, the girls participate in activities of various types. Activities are changed every six weeks for variety. Activities this year include deck tennis, volleyball, basketball, and alley cage ball. GAA is counciled by a board consisting of Linda Data, President. Donna Sabatini, Vice President, Paula Filippini, Secretary-Treasurer, and Peggy Russell and Marcy lattoni are the Point Chairmen. Miss Goetz is the sponsor of the club. At the end of each year a banquet is held. Awards are presented to the earners, new members are officially initiated, and the installation of offices takes place. The officer installation ceremony is most effective, and proves to be very exciting for all who attend. The 1968-1969 Board has done a good job and their sponsor. Miss Goetz has devoted a lot of time and energy to the club and has proved that “Girls Are Active.” Actively participating in after school GAA are (Left to Right) Becky 66 DeMoss.

GAA Sponsors Annual Co-Rec Night The second annual Co-Rec Night, sponsored by the Girls Athletic Association, was held on December fifth, from seven to nine o’clock. Co-Rec Night is recreation for all. Activities included ping-pong, box hockey, checkers, swimming, and volleyball. Refreshments were sold at nine o’clock. The admission fee was a quarter, and was well worth it. for the fun that was had by all. Volleyball proved to be the most exciting, and checkers was played after actively participating in volleyball or ping-pong. Everyone who attended had a good time, and hope that GAA will continue to sponsor them in future years at Hall. This event gives all students a chance to get some exercise and also to have fun while becoming physically fit.

F.H.A. girls enjoy the annual picnic. The Marchin’ Red Devils The Marching Red Devils, the new name adopted for the Hall High School Band, is probably the fastest moving organization in the school. The band has brought many laurels back to Hall and has been equally rewarded. The acquisition of new uniforms was the biggest reward. Last summer the band rehearsed regularly, and as a result, they were chosen to represent Hall at the Heart of Illinois Fair in Peoria. They also participated in the Mendota Sweet Corn Festival, the Old Timers Day in Metamora. and the Pork Days Celebration in Princeton. They also have represented Hall in Spring Valley and Ladd at Halloween and at Christmas. The biggest event of the year The band displays school spirit in more than one way.

The Marching Red Devils entertained our guests from Amboy, Princeton, Rock Falls, and Rochelle, as well as our fans. They entertained Amboy fans with patterns in motions, a series of precision maneuvers, Princeton fans with popular music, and Rock Falls fans with formations and music portraying Mexico. With the closing of football season, the Marching Red Devils moved indoors to prepare for concerts as the Hall High School Symphonic Band.

Pep Band Boosts Spirit The Hall High School Symphonic Band, under the direction of Foster Wilson, has promoted a new sound that for many years has not been heard at Hall. The band has had many concerts performances during the 1968-69 school year, with each one better than the last. One of the several concerts this year was a new winter concert, to be an annual affair. The Symphonic Band presented music from all walks of life. However, the band did not stop there. This was only a warm-up. The band then went on a tour to all of the grade schools in the Hall District promoting future interest in music. The annual Spring Concert, the pinnacle of the concert season, was presented in the auditorium. Looking forward into the summer program. there are many parades and public performances. Practice, practice, and more practice is what it takes to have a band as great as the Hall High School Symphonic Band. The Pep Band provides entertainment between games and during halftime of the varsity games throughout the basketball season. At the first annual winter concert, the Symphonic Band provides music of all classes ranging from popular to light classics, from Christmas to movie themes, and new arrangements of old melodies. Band Prepares Concerts As a drive to arouse interest, the band went on its second tour to all the grade schools in Hall Township, with Christmas Con- 73 certs at Ladd and Cherry Grade Schools, and Spring Concerts at Lincoln School in Spring Valley, and Bureau Grade School. Nurse’s Club The F.N.C., an organization dedicated to serving girls interested in various fields of nursing or other medical professions, is under the sponsorship of Mrs. Verona Ballou. On October 31, the club held its annual Career Night, which once again proved to be a success. Approximately 10 schools of nursing sent representatives with valuable career information. At their monthly meetings they have had varied speakers concerning nursing and related professions. A $50 scholarship was once again planned for a senior nursing student.

Under the guidance of eight other sponsors and presently Mr. Harry Lehning, the Honorary Activity Club has been in existence for 46 years, making it the oldest club at Hall. Membership is obtained by earning a set number of points by participating in other clubs and activities at Hall. This exclusive club’s purpose is to encourage honorable living not only in the school but in home and civic areas as well. To fulfill these purposes, the club plans such activities as monthly potlucks at members’ homes, and the gathering of clothes for the Save the Children Federation. Since the members of H.A.C. must first be in 1-Try before joining H.A.C. the two clubs co-sponsored a “Tops in Talent program for the student body. Members: FIRST ROW (Left to right) M. Rochetto, P.

Now in 10th Year Pictured here are Linda Vogt and Lorna Tanari ushering at the teacher’s institution at Princeton. 1968-69 marks 10 years of activity for the Hall chapter of F.T.A. The charter for the club was issued in September of 1958 and is presently under the capable sponsorship of Mr. Frank Colmone. Future Teachers of America is an organization with the purpose of informing its members on matters pertaining to the teaching profession. This includes information about teacher training, areas of teaching, institutions and many others. This year the annual Student Government Day was once again a big success. This special day gives the future teachers an opportunity to experience teaching situations in their chosen fields. This year the club made trips to local schools to observe different teaching techniques. Money making projects, such as bake sales and hops after games, were sponsored to raise money for the annual scholarships awarded to former F.T.A. students training for the teaching profession.

Vice President, and Joyce Devall. President. 1-Try was organized during the 1935-1936 school year, and is now under the sponsorship of Miss Eileen Connolly. To become members, students must have a C average or better in academic subjects. The club is based on three principles: scholarship, service and self-improvement. The club meets once every six weeks, and has a program planned for a form of entertainment. There have been many successful student-teacher debates held, as a form of entertainment as well as instruction. At the end of each semester, awards are granted to those who have obtained outstanding achievement in the field of scholarship. These awards are divided into three separate classes: Summa Cum Laude—Straight A in four or more subjects. Magna Cum Laude—Four A’s and nothing less than a B. Cum Laude—Three A's and nothing less than a B. Certificates of achievement are presented to the students earning these awards. They are usually presented at the meeting ending the first or second semesters. This year’s award winners are listed below. An annual event that 1-Try sponsors each year is “Tops in Talent.” It was held in May and was a great success as it has been in past years. All students are eligible to try out and to show what type of talent they possess. They may then have a chance to perform before the students at this program. Since the Honorary Activity Club and 1-Try jointly sponsor this event, the proceeds are divided evenly between the two clubs.

Leaders of our Freshman Class were, Miss Eileen Connelly. Advisor, John Hoffert, President, Mary Jo Fitton, Vice President, Mary Lou Rochetto, Secretary, and Gloria Baracani, Treasurer. Leading our class in cheers that year were Mary Peterson. Susie Braida, and Deb Fassino.

Queen Mary Peterson, and King Dale Kalman led our tiny Dog-patch” community. John Hoffert, President. Dale Hardin, Vice President. Deb Fassino, Secretary, and Gloria Baracani, Treasurer, along with Mrs. Richard Pommier, Advisor, lead our class toward truly becoming upperclassmen”.

Various styles were presented to the officers and from these they selected the style they thought the class would prefer. The style then selected was presented to the class so they could pick the ring size and color of stone they preferred. After the orders were placed came the hardest part, waiting for the rings to arrive. On the morning of November twenty-fifth the long awaited day finally arrived. Outside of Mr. Brasher’s room were 125 juniors waiting their turn to receive their ring. Finally we are considered upper classmen. 103 Among the first to receive their class ring were Greg McFarland and Tom McNally. Juniors Prepare for During the course of the school year the Junior Class will tackle various tests. These tests are designed to evaluate the students intelligence capacities and over all abilities. The Illinois Statewide Test, a requirement for all juniors, was given in September. It includes measures of the abilities and skills basic to achievement in all subject matter fields. The Preliminary Aptitude Test, issued in October, was attempted by all college bound students. The purpose of this test is to give the student an idea of how he would score on a college examination. Gary Metcalf displays his ability by sketching a sailboat for Mr. Brasher s art class. Fiste. M. Fitzpatrick. B. Galli. L. Gergovich. H. Giacometti. C. Gossard. M. Halverson. R. Harju. E. Hartman. K.

Achievement Scholarships, and other awards. It offers the student an opportunity to display what he could do with what he has learned. Another voluntary test, the American College Test, given in April, is a college entrance exam. The ACT battery includes tests dealing with intellectual skills and abilities. The students, upon correction of the tests, are placed in percentile ranks and compared with other college bound students across the country. Merkel. C. Metcalf. G. Mattioda. S. Miller. R.

Preparations for Junior Many juniors gave of their spare time to aid in the packing of the Christmas boxes that were sent to our men in Viet Nam. The highlight of the junior year is the Junior Prom. The members of this years Junior Class started organizing committees early in October in order to come up with the best ideas that will make this years prom a great success. The date for the big event was set for April 26. 1969. Each member of the class has looked forward to this occasion since the start of his high school years. This years Junior Class is working hard to make this years prom the best and most successful. Noll.C. Oedor. J. Oklesen. B. Ossola. R. Pagoria. S. Parnell. G. Pattarozi. R. Peterson. G. Picco. J.

Another major undertaking of the Junior Class was the sending of Christmas boxes to the men in Viet Nam. Each member of the Junior Class contributed toward the project, and with their help the boxes were packed and sent well before Christmas. The twenty-five boxes sent were filled with various articles such as candy, soap, magazines, and cookies. Thanks to the members of the Junior Class, Christmas in Viet Nam was a little merrier this year. 107 Chemistry proved to be a challenge to many juniors.

This was the night which the members of the graduating class had been waiting for since they first entered high school life. As Mr. Richard Godfrey of Illinois State University delivered the commencement address, the thoughts of the graduates drifted from feelings of regret at leaving friends, activities, and classes to continue the future. Then, with a mixture of sadness and pride, they moved forward to receive the diplomas, which they worked so hard for. As the graduates leave the auditorium, most were known to have a tear in their eye. Mr. Richard Godfrey gives the commencement address to the graduating class. Mr. Charles Keyser was nominated as Outstanding Teacher by Bill Estrin at Yale University. He was chosen as one of the three outstanding teachers in the United States by this committee. Deborah Claire Eustice was a National Merit finalist. u 140
