Let's pretend we entered into a race as jockeys in order to win our diplomas. Of course, some of us have worked harder in training and thus have achieved more honors than others. But, on a whole each of us has run a good race and well deserves this day of graduation. Most of the jockeys voted Jerry Kruse as presi- dent. Donald Sorensen, vice-president, and Lar- ry Shelabargcr, secretary-treasurer. Miss I.inc- haugh was our sponsor. After the hustle and hustle of registration, joining clubs, and becoming ac- quainted with upper classmates, we settled down to run a good race. In the second quarter of the race, we had seven- tv-six jockeys, sixteen having dropped out. and ten new ones came in. This year Jerry Kruse continued his leadership as president. Dwight Ren- nison was nominated vice-president, and Ted Jack- son as secretary-treasurer. Our class sponsor was Verla Atwater Welker. The most eventful quarter of the race was the Junior year. We had lost fourteen and had added eight which made a group of seventy for this year. Donna Stone was chosen president; Doris Klmorc, vice-president; Michael MeFarlin, sec- retary; and Jerry Kruse, treasure. M. Blessman and Miss McKone were our class sponsors. We ordered our class rings from Ilcrf Jones in the early fall. “Seventeenth Summer , was the name of our Junior play under the direction of Mrs. Leida Gibson. It was a big success. In order to raise money for the Junior-Senior prom, we had a magazine drive and sold concessions at the basketball games. Hitch Your Wagon to a Star”, was the theme for the Junior-Senior prom. This marked the first school year in our new auditorium. The fourth quarter of the race was also quite a busy one for all the Seniors. The same class officers and sponsors were kept this year. Class pictures were taken at beginning of tile year. In November, we gave our Senior play, Little Women , under the direction of Mr. Leida Gibson. In the spring, we enjoyed our Senior trip ami the Senior banquet and the Junior-Senior prom. Graduation day came soon, we had reached the goal which we hail strived for. But we shall never forget tin- many achievements and pleasures we have received. 18 Sandra Autcn Heart brakcr A sweat «iri is Samira A.. Who seems t«� have a winning way.

Mr. Herink put the band through their paces at all the home football games, creating words, expressions, and pictures by placing each member of the band in a certain place on the field. The band also traveled to Beardstown and performed on a program with the Hcardstown baud. Those who attended the home basketball games were well entertained by the band playing marches and other appropriate selections. The band joined the chorus in presenting the annual Spring Festival. Outside of school the band marched and played in the Centennial parade on Labor Day, and made a fine showing among the other musical groups marching. Santa Claus was led into the courtyard by the band playing Christmas songs. On Memorial Day the group again made an appearance.

Mister Touchdown U. S. A. VARSITY FOOTBALL “The Stone Axe” The ducks were hoping to have the best season they’ve had at H. C. II. S. when they went to Beardstown on Sept. 12. The ducks were full of spirit but seem to lose most of it during the first quarter. In the second, third, and fourth quarter Beards- town scored a touchdown which handed the ducks a smashing defeat of 19 to 0. The next game was the first home game of the season and the ducks were playing a newcomer to their schedule Petersburg. Bonnett and Swinford had the scoring honors of the evening with the final score 21 to 0 with the ducks on top. Then came the biggest heartbreak of the season with the ducks facing their oldest rival of the year (beside Lewistown) which is the Wixom’s eleven. With both teams playing a very good game the score was 0 to 0 up till the last quarter, with two minutes left to go the Rushville eleven stopped the ducks in the end r.one and got two points and the game ended 2 to 0. The next week the ducks traveled to Mt. Sterling hoping to even uj� their win and lost record at two apiece. Without the service of senior fullback Jim Chambers and half the game with- out the service of senior halfback Jon Morgan the ducks were still able to rack up a win with sophomore Jack Braendle scoring two of the ducks four touchdowns. With high spirit the ducks faced the Macomb eleven on the home field, in hopes of getting third win of the season. With Chambers back in the lineup after a two week lay off the ducks were up to their full power in the hack field. Playing a much better game in the second half the ducks marched down the field where Jon Morgan raced from the twenty yard line for the ducks first score with Bonnett making the extra | oint.
