Day and night through these years he has Worked with but one purpose in mind: To train each student to take his place in the world a better citizen because of his years in high school. I-le has Watched the school rise from a small beginning to the prominent position it now occupies. Into each step he has put a part of himself. No one passing in the shadow of this school can fail to be influ- enced by the man who is the school, and the people who have gone out into life from it stand as a living tribute to him.

In 1896, Mr. Taylor came to Harrisburg to teach in a school located on the present site of Logan School. Perhaps he, least of all men in the com- munity, dreamed that for the next forty-four years he would shape the policy of secondary education in this community. In spite of opposition, war, floods, and financial depressions, he was to maintain a policy that kept the school independent of outside changes, political, social, industrial, and financial. In 1900, the first milestone was passed when the people voted for a township high school. Until 1903 the building of the Old City High was rented. In that year, the first unit of the present building was completed. The years that followed showed the rapid growth of the enrollment, making it necessary for an addition to the first unit. This step was completed in 1916. In 1917, the United States entered the World War, and nine of the first seventeen recruits to leave Harrisburg were graduates of this schoolg one of these was the principal's son, Inglis Taylor. Even a war could not stop the growth of the school, for in 1922, it was necessary to add the second unit. Another improvement that has contributed to the efficiency of the ath- letics of the school is the purchasing and equipping of Taylor Field, appro- priately named for the principal who made it possible. In 1930, the depression fell upon the country but in Harrisburg Township High things went on as before. The teachers were paid in full every month, an astounding record, for many teachers of this and other states were paid in scrip. Still pupils came. Mr. Taylor sooner than anyone else saw the need for another building to accommodate the teachers and students. His work was stopped only temporarily by the 1937 flood, during which time the school building was used as a homefor the refugees under the supervision of the principal and his staff. Again he began to plan and in 1939 after a year's work, the latest unit was completed. An enrollment of 52 students has grown to almost 1200. The curriculum has increased from twelve required subjects to the wide field of subjects now open to a student of this school. Some of the subjects that were not taught in the early days are biology, chemistry, sociology, home economics, agriculture, French, physical education, manual training, shorthand and typewriting, bookkeeping, and music. One ideal yet remains to be completed and may some future record be made of its fulfillment-that dream of a Iunior College on the East Campus. Mr. Taylor has shown himself to be a man with the ability to bring things to pass. This in itself is a prophecy for the future. H3 if A A gf Q? w f 'Q 5 F J 1 s V.. x5 - '4 ' ? 5 Q SCM .Zim Q Y.

On February 9 the traditional Mardi Gras party was held in the gymna- sium. The gala dress worn by those present and the clever decorations added to the festivity of the scene. Frankie Mayfield was chosen by the boys as the queen of the Mardi Gras. Eugene Pattinson was the king. The one who made the funniest face, Bill Hackney, was elected Prince of Fools. The new members went through the harrowing experience of initiation, in- flicted upon them by the old members. The membership of the club at the end of the year was fifty-four. Five new members were admitted in the fall and thirty-seven at the beginning of the second semester.

The emblem is that of a ladder made up of Character, Friendship, Courtesy, Pleasure, and Suc- cess, with the watchword, Loyalty. This year's Hi-Tri was under the able leadership of Betty Stephens as president, Imogene Owen as vice-president, Lida Thomas as secretary, and Dorothy lean Staiger as financial secretary. The sponsors were Miss lohnson, Miss Hill, Miss Etherton, and Miss Patterson. After the traditional formal and impressive initiation ceremony, the freshmen girls were accepted as members of the organization, following which the ceremony was given at New Burnside to bring this new chapter into the organization. At the Older Girls' Conference held at Carmi, Betty Stephens was elected vice-president of the State Hi-Tri and also acted as chairman for the after- noon meeting. Underwood.

Mr. Palmer was our sponsor and holding down the chief executive posi- tion was Raymond Evans. Second in command was Robert Morris. Our secretary was Guy King Patterson, and our treasurer was Burdette Tuttle, The weekly meetings were generally terminated by discussions on cur- rent topics. This year the Hi-Y firmly established the precedent set last year of having a formal induction ceremony. The excellent Hi-Y basketball team was second to none in the intramural tournament. One of the most outstanding events of the Whole student year was th: Hi-Y picnic which was anticipated eagerly by both boys and gir'ls. The purpose of the Hi-Y is to create, establish and maintain throughout the school and community higher standards of Christian living. Seated-Mr. Palmer, Iames Keaster, Fred Gales, I. A.

The Purple Clarion staff was assisted this year by the journalism class, a new course in the school program. The staff and Margaret Popham, faculty adviser, spent many feverish hours chasing last minute stories, read- ing copy, writing heads , and reading proof, constantly striving to make your Clarion as nearly perfect as possible. This year the paper contained more features, gossip, sports, editorials, and pictures than ever before. At Christmas and in March there were six- page editions. In October, representatives attended the Big 7 Press Con- ference at West Frankfort and in March two representatives were sent to the Illinois State Press Association at Champaign where the Clarion was elected treasurer of the state organization. The Clarion came out bi-weekly and at eight o'clock on Wednesday morning you'd find the salesmen in the hall and at every entrance shouting Clarionl Clarionl only five cents! After school, students of the circulation department worked to get the exchange papers ready for mailing. Plenty of midnight oil was burned by Miss Popham, Editor Lida Thomas, and Copy-editor Mesha Oshel, in the make-up of the paper and in reading copy. Dahle Porter, business manager, and his assistants ruined a lot of shoe leather in selling advertising to the local merchants. The Clarion has been our chief source of information during the year, it has entertained us with amusing stories and clever columns, it has worked for every organization in our school, has encouraged athletics, suggested improvements, and played a great part in keeping up our school spirit, We should be proud of our paper that holds its place among the best.

This group met every second Friday during the year to make a study of the drama under the leadership of their president, Guy King Patterson, and sponsor, Mrs. Eddy. Their work was not all theory, howeverg at some of their meetings they worked on a play which was planned for presentation on Amateur Night. Realizing that much value is to be had from movies, the club made it a point to keep up on some of the best current films. The Thespians are all agreed that Shakespeare was right when he said, The Play's The Thing. Seated-Bill LaBaw, Betty Stephens, Mildred Thornberry, Hazel Guess, Robert Malone.

The team exchanged visits with both the Herrin and Marion debating squads. Resolved That the Rules of the Illinois High School Association Are Too Restrictive , was the question for debate with Herrin. The Marion and Harrisburg Teams chose as their question, Resolved, That Married Women Whose Husbands Are Employed in Business, in a Profesion, or for Wages Should Not Themselves Be Employed for Wages. These people who were rather shy at the beginning of the term had be- come excellent speakers by the close of this school year, and had built up a reputation for good debating.

T. H. S. is that of the F. F. A., composed of 80 boys, most of them living on the farm. These embryo farmers are under the excellent sponsorship of Mr. Kamm, instructor of agriculture. This year the boys elected the following capable leaders: President, Warren Evans, Vice-President, Billy Keeneg Secretary and Treasurer, Dayton Dallas, and Reporter, Fred Hubbs. Each member is required to have a project on grain, livestock, or poultry, the object of which is to see who can make the most profit. The most popular projects seem to be swine, dairy, poultry, beef, and grain. The boys began in February preparing for a state public speaking con- test held in May.

These girls were carefully chosen by Mr. Schork. Besides singing in the Girls' Quartet, they sang in the special A Cappella Choir and the Girls' Glee Club. These girls usually practiced after school and in the mornings when Mr. Schork was not practicing with any other of the choruses. Mr. Schork, Phyllis Durham, Dorothy Staiger, Peggy Lentz, Helen Laird The special A Cappella Choir, composed of fifty-five members, was selected from the chorus classes. This organization proved a stimulus, as well as a source of pleasure and profit to those who possessed vocal ability. The work of the chorus included individual voice training as well as the mastering of musical selections. Their repertoire included religous works, folk songs, classics, and semi-popu- lar numbers. On Sunday, March 31, the choir gave a concert for the purpose of rais- ing money so that the students could go to West Frankfort to take part in the State Contest.

Our two representatives were very successful in their first appearance at the District contest, for both of them received tirsts. The first quartet composed of Mary Alice McDaniel, Helen Schrieber, George Simpson, and Dorris I-lamby played Andante Canta- bile by Tschaikowsky, while the other one pictured on page 57 played the Celebrated Minuet by Boccorini. The second quartet is composed of Iames Land, Ieanne Iacobs, Iames Yates, and Frances Nell Pairsh. Since only two of the members are seniors, next year's music group should be very prom- ising. Both of the quartets went to the State contest. Mary Alice McDaniel, Helen Schrieber, George Simpson, Dorris Hamby. HHEHlSlHH This year the orchestra has played a greater variety of compositions. Lighter works have been enjoyed by the audiences at the Iunior and Senior plays and the Pow Wow. Their success was further demonstrated by obtain- ing first rating in the district contest by their rendition of Largo from the New World Symphony by Dvorak and The Second Movement of Shubert's Unfin- ished Syrnphony. It was also well represented by soloists. The violin solo- ists rated first were Mary Alice McDaniel, Helen Schrieber, and Iames Landsg viola, George Simpson, and 'cello, Dorris Hamby. The orchestra has been invited to give concerts at Iunior High School and Muddy.

Participation in this organization has meant plenty of hard work and not all play, for many hours of tedious practice have been necessary to perform those tricky maneuvers at football games and prepare for contests with other schools. The band provided a colorful touch in our l-lomecoming parade and at our football games, proving a big attraction to the townsfolk and pupils. New marching figures were introduced, such as the neon l'l, led by our strutting Drum Major Charles Christner, Majorette Baenella Bennett, and the uniformed letter girls. Basketball season saw the band still on duty with their swing arrange, ments influencing loyalty and pep, Everyone enjoyed those special choruses by Bex Bowman and Chuck Simons, and the Trumpet trio Dayton Ford, Earl Gidcumb, and Dick Ferguson. The band received first rating at the district contest held on March 23 with the numbers On The Campus. a march by Sousa, Finlandia by Sibelius, and the Second Movement of the Symphony in C Minor by Williairis, This made the band eligible for the state contest, A joint concert with the orchestra closed the years work. 7l ...U J 'if ir az - --g -C Yltl HHN'l lHKl ll WIlH YUH llf'l'l 'lOP'W Tlyryiiiwar Ifzgifw Cariwialiaal llfrlwi Patil Sycqzrzaro Fd COTTTl1CllOfXl llOl'lGlf'l . l!l: r!m Vandc-rlioff Alioa Sycamore ll-fri ivrnori llldred Tliorriberry Ovalee Yates ..

I I' X SHINI NIHHl 'W Z' FN I . ,nw This year the Lowell-Emersonian contest was held with more of the old spirit than had been seen for years. When fifty-six Lowells and forty- eight Emersonians entered the contest it seemed to put greater enthusiasm into both societies.

There was no competition in decorations as both sides of the gymnasium were decorated with beautiful Greek friezes by the art department. The Lowell's side of the gymnasium was in yellow and white and that of the Emeisonians in blue and white. Since no points were offered in decorations this year, competition in the other events was keener than ever. The l,owell's were determined to win and the Emersonians were equally determined to win back their supremacy. The success of this annual battle which Mr. Taylor started over thirty years ago was greatly due to the work of the officers and sponsors of the two societies. fi lIlllMlHlIHl Ellllllll Uppesr leit-ishorthdndz Seated-lfrances Kwet Hazel Guess, Nellie Hayes, lxorothy Fox, Helen Brooks, wlyde Look, Bill Hackney, Wylodine 'Thomas Standing-loseplilne Klftnfilke, Reba Horton Ioyce Ann Kean, Miss Dowell, Sebert Anderson, lamesw Humphrey, Ada Marte Snetler, Mary Davis, Upper right-Bookkeeping: First row-Mildred Reynolds, Aileen l'itlYlHCI Second row-lean Strange, Ruth lrvm.

The Purple and White satin-clad Bulldogs of the gridiron opened their 1939 season with a 39-O victory over the Metropolis Bed Devils. lt looked as if the Bulldogs were out for another undefeated season. For their second tilt, the Bulldogs traveled to Cairo to play on a mud- tracked field and bow in defeat to the Cairo eleven 13-U. One week later the locals opened their conference schedule against the Centralia aggregation on the foes field. The Bulldogs, playing poor lights and a wet field, were defeated by the Centralians 13-7. After two defeats, the Bulldogs came back home determined to defeat their next foe. On October the fourteenth, the Herrin Tigers invaded the local gridiron. lt was much to their sorrow. When the final gun sounded, the Bulldogs marched off the field with a 28-O victory. ln this game the Bulldogs played their best game of the season. 84 T Morris Roberts Dudonis Asst. Couch Cretzmeyer H139 Following this victory, the locals were scheduled to invade the Marion Wild Cats. Up to this time, the Wild Cats hadnt proved to be such a good team. The locals were surprised when a Marion backfield man, in the first minute of the game, galloped 95 yards for a touchdown. Failing to make the conversion, Marion went into the lead 6-U. This lead was held until the final minutes of the game when the Hoeck-coached squad pushed the ball over the goal. The conversion being gooil, the Bulldogs were victorious 7-6. The conference leading Frankfort Red Birds came to Harrisburg on November the fourth and proceeded to send the Bulldogs down in defeat 29-7. On November the eleventh, for the third year straight on this date, the Hoeckecoached squad traveled to Benton, The Rangers were proud victors, winning 32-U. After five minutes of bad playing in the second quarter, the day, which had previously been full of color and excitement due to the celebration of Homecoming and the commemoration of Principal Harry Taylors fiftieth year in public school service, turned into gloom, Making l9 points in five minutes, the Rams went home victorious 19-O. On November the twenty-third, the Harrisburgers invaded their tradi- tional rivals' field for the annual Turkey-Day game, This game, as usual, was a long hard-fought game with neither side giving in for a minute. When the final gun was heard, neither team was satisfied due to the fact that the score was all tied up 7-7. 85 Asst. Couch McCool iUUlHHll Captain Bill Haclcney. l-lack readily filled the center position on the l939 Bulldog eleven. Captain Bill was the only senior who lettered three consecutive years. Best wishes to you in College, Hackney. George Sullivan. lrish proved to be the unanimous choice of his teammates for Cap- tain in 4U. Sully pulled out of right guard to kick off and make those important place- kicks after touchdowns. George booted l2 consecutive points for the SQ season. Raymond Evans. Dutch was shifted from the backfield to end position late in the sea- son. Ray did a nice job of 'Coffin Corner punting during the Turkey day game at Eldo- rado. I. A. Stricklin. Strick proved to be the brains of the SQ grid men by calling all the plays, Playing left-guard he shared his hon- ors both on the offense and defense. Walls Bob Morris. Porky , staunch l95 pound left tackle, proved that a big boy could get around. lt was Morris who blocked a Herrin punt on their two-yard line which later sent the Bulldogs over for a touchdown. Gordon Roberts. Substituted at left end and snared several of l-lart's and Miley's passes running down the field. Mickey Dudonis. Mickey played both end positions, but was always worried about when basketball practice was going to start. Dudonis captained the 1939-l94U Bulldog cagers. Edward Kuckekis. Bones was a mean man on defense the time he was in the game and defied any runner coming around his end. Gwin Walls. Speed wasn't in many games because he didn't come out for football until his senior year. Walls at l8O pounds played either guard or tackle. G' Hart Hargett K ckekis Gates ivens T' tUlllHHlt Fred Gates. Pretty Boy tried his line plunges at F B positions and at times made decisive gains for the Purple and White eleven. Gates also showed a tremendous burst of speed in the Herrin game and inter- cepted three tiger passes. Lloyd Givens. Snake Hips just waited too long to come out for practice. Since this was his first year out for the gridiron he sur- prised the local fans by showing lightning speed with fancy side-stepping. Iames Hart. 'lfug shared passing honors with Miley. Billie has another year to show his ability in the backfield. Hart did some nice blocking in the Armistice day tilt against the Benton Rangers. lack Hargett. Paddle Foot a l35-pound end proved to be mighty in nabbing those passes from the backfield. Hargett will be a good man to have around on the defense next season. Charles Dillon. Chuck came in on the pinches when a sub was needed in the wing- Dillon Goben Franks back, Dillon ran very effectively in the Metro- polis game. Charlie is described to be a real blocking back. Bill Goben. Willie caught a twenty-yard pass from Miley in the Frankfort game to put the Bulldogs in scoring position for their only touchdown of the game. Bill's height should prove to be an asset as one of next year's ends. Bill Franks. Babe showed possibly the closest competition to 'lWaddling Morgan in the Benton game. Franks intercepted a Ranger pass and ran like a sprinter along the side- lines. Bob Perry. Lover showed his stuff in the opening game of the season by plunging over for a touchdown and doing a nice job at blocking back. Loran Morgan. Gut waddled fifty yards for a touchdown in the Herrin game. Ladies Man is a center converted into a quarter- back, Morgan Perry Miley I X' The Homecoming this year, planned by Miss Schmidt and Mr. Watterson, was made a lubilee in honor of Mr. Taylors fiftieth anniversary as a teacher, lt began on Friday morning, November l7, when Gwen Smith was crowned Homecoming Queen of l939 by Bill Hackney, football captain, before the student body and a number of guests. Following the crowning of the queen, Mr. Taylor was pleasantly surprised by a procession of fifty-one girls carry- ing red roses, one for each of his fifty years, and the fifty-first for the years of the future. Mr. Bonnell, on behalf of the faculty, presented him with a very comfortable chair and hassoclc. As a final tribute, the entire assembly stood and joined the school chorus in singing Auld Lang Syne. A Fl' NUVlMHlH IH The colorful parade on Saturday of over two miles of civic and high school floats, cars, decorated bicycles, and bands was presided over by the queen and her three maids, Helen Hunsinger, Betty Stephens, and Frances Ferguson. Mrs. Harker Miley was responsible for the large alumni repre- sentation. Prizes, donated by the Elks, were offered for the best floats, cars, and bicycles entered in the parade, and although competition was keen, the record of the Latin club remained unbroken when it received first for the third consecutive year. Between halves at the game that afternoon the alumni presented Mr. Taylor with a huge basket containing fifty yellow chrysanthemurns. lllllllltlll Even though we have had to take worse defeats during this season than we have been accustomed to, We can proudly say that we had one of the most aggressive teams in the Big Seven Conference. ln the last half of the season the Bulldogs showed the fans how they could really play. To prove this let's look over their records, The spurt of fight began in the second Benton game. The locals won out by a score of 4439. ln the following game the Eldorado Eagles nosed out the Bulldogs by three points. The Marion Wild Cats, who had earlier in the season hung up a fllf2U victory over the locals, skimmed through to a 27-26 victory, ln the second West Frankfort game, the Bed Birds had much trouble in gaining a 434flU victory. The Herrin aggregation invaded the local floor for our last conference game and struggled through to a 46-'fill victory. ln the regional tournament held on the local floor eight very good teams were brought together. The Bulldogs won over Equality for third place. As we reflect on the seasons results, we know that you will agree with 'is that the thing that counts most is not the final score, but rather the attitude which the players have learned to take toward their opponents.

Working together for health and happiness might well be the motto of the G. A. A. The active members offer a splendid example of its effect. ln the early fall the girls enjoy games of softball. As cooler Weather comes they take up soccer. When frost comes, indoor activities such as bas- ketball, volleyball, and tumbling take the place of the outdoor games. In the spring, when we are again glad to be out in the open, softball is once more played. 'The G. A. A. also sponsors the tumbling team and this year inaugurated a new activity-roller skating. The officers who have led in the activities are: Mildred Hacker, Presi- dentg Roberta Eddy, Vice-President. 93 if . ix . . ,, T i 6 I X How l-lack Hargett, Charles Dillon, Bob Perry, Edward Kiikeckis, Gordon Roberts, Bill Goben, Bill Hackney, Bob Morris, Ray Evans, I.
