His duties were assumed on January 14, 1944, by Mr. Nothdurft, an alumnus, who had been an instructor at Woodruff High School. We were fortunate to have Mr. Adams remain on the faculty for part-time teaching. We now wish Mr. Adams Good Luck, and welcome Mr. Nothdurft as our principal. away, f.2azzw-u,, When told that the change of faculty in the last two years would come under special features, I wondered what I could possibly say about the teachers: so I got opinions from different members of the school. The first group consists of teachers who have come and gone in the last two or three yearsg the second, teachers who have come to us within the last two or three years and are still with us, The 1944 Chilliscope Let's start off first with MR. M. T. KOKJOI-IN, shall we? He was inclined to be a Hladies' man, so I hear. He taught gen- eral science, biology, and boys' physical education. Mr. Kok- john was a good teacher but had his bad days. Oh, well, life would be rather dull if it weren't broken by a bad day now and then. I'll leave Mr. Kokjohn with the opinion that he was pretty good. I'll disregard the old saying Ladies before gentlemen and take MR. JEAN PARVIN, who left us a year ago to join the United States Navy. He was an experienced teacher and knew Chillicothe very well. . Mr. Parvin taught chemistry, physics, commercial geography, and boys' physical education. He was also the skilled coach at Chilli High. I'm sure he is well remembered by the students and teachers. Now we come to a man who was a favorite among the girls. Who else could that be but MR. LONNIE PARRFH. I'm sure we'll all agree that he had a sparkling personality and really knew his social studies. Mr. Parr left us not long ago and is now a Lieu- tenant Cj.g.j in the Navy. I think I can truthfully say that everyone was sorry to see him go. So much for the men. Now let's take the women. MISS LILLIAN KOPLEWSKI joined the faculty in September, 1942, and left in May, 1943. She was the teacher of general science, biology, and English I. All those who had her increased their knowledge to the point of overflowing! Miss Koplewski was quite popular among the students. Who's next? Oh, yes, MISS HELEN MUTCH. This young instructor made her debut at Chilli High in September. 1942, and was with us less than a year. As you know she taught home economics. Miss Mutch left us to be married-perhaps to put her theories into practice. In this group I'll start off with MISS MAVIS CONLEE, who is one of the younger instructors at Chilli High. As a teacher of civics and girls' physical education, she's doing a very good job. I think all the girls will agree that when it comes to bas- ketball, Miss Conlee really knows hardwood technique. Next is MRS. DOROTHY PRUETT, who succeeded Miss Mutch. Mrs. Pruett has a quiet personality and handles her department very well. In fact quite a change took place in the Home Ec. class upon her arrival. We now arrive at MR. WAYNE WILKINSON, who teaches history and English I. Mr. Wilkinson is popular with the stu- The 1944 Chxllzscope dents and faculty. I think the students will agree that his piano playing is super : however, the majority of the faculty are more gradually becoming accustomed to, and I quote, What you call 'boogie woogie'. Now we come to MR. ARTHUR LAMBERT, who is quite popular with the girls. An instructor in general science, biol- ogy, and boys' physical education, Mr. Lambert pulled the basketball team out of its lethargy. I-Ie is liked both for his teaching and for his friendly spirit. MR. FRED BOHANNON, the newest teacher here, instructs classes in general science, chemistry, and physics. Despite what appears to be a reserved manner, he will be remembered by '44 graduates for his portrayal of F. D. R. in the Faculty stunt on Junior Stunt Night. Another addition this year to the halls of C.I-I.S. is our Service Flag. in memory of graduates who have joined the Armed Forces. A blue star stands for all who are now serving: a gold, for those who have lost their lives. This gold star is just a small reminder of them: and each time we look at it, a small candle should burn brightly in a corner of our hearts for those who gave their lives so that their country would not have to give its life. The Service Flag is a precious possession of the school. Everyone within our walls deeply appreciates it.

Senior News It hardly seems possible that four years have slipped forever into eternity since we, as green, awkward Freshmen entered C.H.S. to begin our journey through the land of High School. Using the kaleidoscope of memory, we can view again the milestones and highlights of our travel. After the newness wore off, came that dread Initiation Day, which really wasn't so bad. Be- cause of the kind instruction of our super adviser, we were well prepared to suffer the humiliation that was our lot, and by doing so, were able to take some of the pleasure away from the sophomores. Perhaps the next big milestone came in our sophomore year-the Sophomore Carnival, This, by the way, was one of the best in the history of C,H.S. Along with these big events were plays, operettas, and football and basketball games followed by dances. As we neared our goal in our junior year, our attention was captured by the Junior Play and the Junior-Senior Prom. The former proved to be one of the best ever. From the net of this, our Prom was financed. This was perhaps the most outstanding of all events to date in our school journey. Here was the first time we could really know what it's like to go formal You remember the Country Club with its fluttering musical notes, sweet-smelling flowers, and gaily dressed occupants. Looking a little closer into the telescope of memory, vou see yourself driving away from the Club with that certain person, and you no longer need the seeing apparatus to recall the events that followed. At last we are Seniors-we have come to the last mile of our journey. Now it becomes our lot to hurriedly gather up a few last-minute details, such as invitations, rings, yearbooks, caps and gowns: but we still try to cram all the events in our already much-filled life, such as those thrilling games, the operetta, the Junior Play, and the Prom. As our destination-graduation--comes more intovsight, in fact, only a few short weeks away, we begin to turn from the telescope of memory and try to pierce the veiled future. True, many of our members have already made their decisions. Soon our Service Flag will represent them-we hope by a blue, and not a gold star. As we leave the land of High School and begin our journey through the opportunity-filled, but hate-filled, world, C.H.S., its faculty, and even its rooms will be deeply implanted in our minds.

SENIOR CLASS OF 1944 Chillicothe Township High School, 16 The 1944 Chilliscope Began! Zfne Blue One dull dismal day, after Graduation exercises, H. Garnett and G. Kelly were seen pur- chasing tickets on the Blue Star Bus Line, operating between the fair city of Chillicothe and its suburb, Peoria. Gaining the amazing speed of fifteen miles per hour, our bus careened madly along until an aged occupant expressed his desire to spit. The bus coming to a sudden stop, the occupants continued on at fifteen miles per hour. So it was that the aforementioned arrived earlier than their mates at the Pearly Gates. Bribing the guard with gasoline coupons, we were fitted out with retreaded Wings. We then set out to find employment. Our efforts were rewarded with jobs as assistant inspectors, examining the new arrivals in Heaven. We had not been there long when in stepped our first classmate to get classified and regis- tered in Heaven or---. CYou see, we took care of both places to save operational costs.j It was Bud Parsons, late successful movie magnate, now dead. He had run a chain of theatres but had been poisoned by his wife, who said afterward, He would never even take me to a movie-so I killed him, Then, Fink and Truitt came in, looking greasy and bedraggled. They had been working in their Fink and Truitt's f Don't open your yap till you've seen our scrap j Junk Yard, when a hydraulic jack slipped and buried them under four tons of bottle caps. Our next visitor was Jean Penn: she had been hitting high C's at the Met when a vocal chord broke and caused her to choke to death. What an end to a promising career! The person following Jean was Wilda Huckins. Her face was tear-stained, and she could hardly restrain her emotions when she handed us a large newspaper clipping as a reference. It said-and we quote- Presenting 'The Romance of Wilda Huckins', produced by Wilda Huckins, directed by Wilda Huckins, starring Wilda Huckins, with music by Wilda Huck- ins. Our wonderment vanished when We learned that the audience consisted entirely of her brother, Lyman Huckins-it had been too much for her. Zora Crotz followed Wilda to our desk. She wore a spotless white apron with Crotz Kandy Kitchen-Try Our World-Famous Kandies lettered across it. Success had brought her much until that morning she sampled her own world-famous candy for the first time. The results were fatal. The following day our old chum, Merle Johnson, ballet dancer and instructor of Rus- sian Ballet, applied for admission into Heaven. After examining his records, we motioned for him to take the elevator marked Down As Johnson went Down, Barbara Estes, the former successful chorus girl, came in. Upon her first performance, she told us, down at Hap Murphy's Tavern. Talent Scout Dale Hart, one of Murphy's few customers, became her manager and after three years of struggling had reached his goal by starring her in his own production, Beer Foam Follies. Roy Coon, the bartender at Murphy's Tavern, came in next, closely followed by Hap him- self. They were still not entirely recovered from the ordeal they had just been through, as they kept warning us about the snakes and multi-colored elephants. It seems that they had been drinking a toast to each of their old classmates C40 in alll, and would have made it, too, if Coon hadn't suggested the faculty. A very hard-looking character followed. We immediately recognized him from a i'Wanted sign we had hanging on the wall, as Curly the Killer Placher, wanted for arson, robbery, kidnapping, murder and stuff in every state of the Union and three provinces in Can- ada. Curly's career had been finally brought to an end by that world-renowned criminologist. Lois Fogg. Lois had tracked him half-wav across the continent, shooting it out with him fi- nallv. as he was robbing a Kansas Blood Bank. We hardly knew our old school chum, Glen Nordwall. in his present slightly enlarged state. He told us that half of his huge bulk was made up of his own banana splits, concocted in his position as a soda jerk. Indeed. his 327 pounds belonged to a man with a reputation as the Bigge't Jerk in town. One noon while enjoying a welcome respite from our duties, we tuned in station EARTH just in time to hear a pleasant voice say, Ths is your announcer, Doris Day, reminding you to use Thelma Foster's home-cooked 'Sure Cure Cough Drops'-the result of long years of personal coughing. And now, Miss Day continued, Foster's Sure Cure Cough Drops bring vou Helen Witham and her all-boy orchestra playing 'Bounce Me Bud With a Loose Auto Fender'. Ruminating on what the world of music had come to, we snapped off the radio and prepared for new business. The 1944 Chilliscope 17 As we turned away from the radio, we were met by the first of the afternoon rush in the persons of two hardly-recognizable schoolmates, Clyde Martin and Don Schielein. Martin had held the controlling interest in a reputable investment company, Shady, Swindle, Gip, and Martin. He had included Schielein, a passing tramp, in a little scheme in aiding the govern- ment in their currency problems. Although Clyde still insists they did a better job than any old U. S. Mint, those G-men meanies didn't think so. Needless to say, they were escorted to the Down elevator. We had just settled back to read the evening newspaper when a familiar name caught our eye. Tucked away in the corner of the last page under a column marked Advice to the Love- lorn was the name Thomas Mooney. Tom was probing deep into some psychological subject entitled Is There Any Intrinsic Value In Osculation? Seeing this was rather deep, we con- tinued thumbing through the paper and came across the name of Janie Mullen. Yes, she had finally reached her goal as a best seller author. Right there on the next to the last page Qmind you-not the lastj was the motto Our Want Ads Will Sell Anything -O. J. Mullen in charge of want ads. On the sports page we noticed Marge Thomas was having a little trouble in her career as a football coach at Miss Prim's Ladies School. She had lost a couple of guards and a tackle to the WACS. Imagine our surprise when in stepped Vice-President Paul Vonk of the United States of America. His death had been a curious one. While out on a political campaign for 4'Frankie Cwho was still in oflicej, the Vice-President stopped his train for a bite to eat. Approaching a restaurant, Paul noticed that it was one of a chain run by his old classmate, Adah Mae Munk. Three hours after Paul's lunch, the whole nation mourned his death, which had been caused by ptomaine poisoning. After we had admitted Paul, a trio composed of LaVonne Rehbein, Eunice Rogers, and Les McLaughlin forced their way in. Eunice Rogers had been sent up the river for killing her hus- band with her fluffy biscuits. Arriving there, she met LaVonne Pistol Packing Rehbein, who was serving a stretch of 199 years. On the witness stand she had confessed to shooting down her employer, the manager of Kroger's because he had refused to give her a raise. While trying to suppress the break, fostered by Eunice and LaVonne, Warden Les McLaughlin laid down his life in fulfilling his duty. A motley group next presented themselves. Ralph Lewis, the magician, and former tree sur- geon, was the spokesman. It seems this group of vaudeville actors, made up of Wanda Mae Rusk, the lady acrobat: Shirley Sefried, lady wrestler, known as the Queen of the Mats : and Wilma Lu Sturm, tight wire artist, were putting on a charity show before an overflow crowd in Northampton's world-famous open air theatre-a local cow lot. However, it turned out that the troupe thought that charity was that stuff that begins at home. They didn't quite make it out of town with the proceeds. In one morning's mail we were quick to notice an attractively printed advertisement. It read. Are you a wallflower? Get rid of that inferiority complex! Get off that wall! Patronize the Roberta Allen and Fern Lukehart Escort Bureau-timid souls, 30.30 per hour: average, 80.40 per hour: wolves, 80.60. We also wash cars and walk dogs cheap. The Reverend Darrell Crotz came in presently, a very angelic look on his aging face. We had a pleasant little talk about church affairs and our old school friends until Crotz bowed his head and began falteringly to relate a tale of black crime. In the Reverend Crotz's little church was a very good member-an outstanding pillar in the community-Deacon Norman Wilkey. It seems the Deacon had absent-mindedly walked home with the collection plate several times. Ray Bornsheuer, local cop, armed himself to the teeth and set out to take the Deacon dead or alive. The pair turned up later playing a slot machine in Valparaiso, Indiana, with some slugs out of the collection plate. Bornsheuer had his two badges taken from him fRay had taken the place of Cec and Henryj, and the now notorious Deacon was put in sol- itary, There was a mist in our respective eyes as we parted. Just a few weeks before The Great Reclassification in Heaven, we had the privilege of regis- tering the last of our distinguished classmates-Shirlee Brumhead and Cliff Hedrick. They had cooperated on a new explosive discovery that shook the World of Science. Anyhow, it shook a good hunk of it, for they reached the Pearly Gates on the fly, We had lived in constant apprehension of this Reclassification, so it was with genuine fear that we tore open the notice and beheld the legal-looking document within. It read: Sorry, brethren, but you are 4E in Heaven. Yes, it was with tears of remorse in our eyes that we straightened our initial-scarred desks, dusted our voluminous files, took up our latest comic book, and, with heavy hearts, took the time-worn elevator that was marked in large red letters --' 'DOWN I ' ' 18 The 1944 chfzzfswpe CLASS OF '45 MARY AHLSTROM BOB BIERWIRTH KENNETH BORNSHEUER JACK BOYER KENNETH BURKHOLDER BEVERLY CALLAHAN PAT CASSIDY BILL CRITCHEIELD ESTELEEN DAY ROBERT DEFOE ELBERT DUCKWORTH KITTY EDWARDS PATSY EMS MARIANNE FLEETWOOD BETTY FULTON GIL GALLAGHER BARBARA GAUWITZ JOHN GRAY MAYBURN GRISWOLD HELEN HAAS MARLYN HANNAH The 1944 Chilliscope flaw 50 I4 iffy CLASS OF FRANK I-IARTZELL BOB HAVERLAND FRED KELLY JEAN KRIETE ROSIE LOPEZ EUGENE MAN ROSEMARY MELLER DEAN RIGGINS l45 DICK SCHAFFNER ROBERT SLEDGISTER LORRAINE SMITH HELEN SNYDER EDWARD SWEETNAM BETTY TALBERT CHARLES TIPPETT MARILYN WAGLE JANE WARRICK BRUCE WAT DICK YARGER KATI-IARINE KINS YOUNG The 1944 Chilliscope NEWS Tiny beads of perspiration trickled haltingly down each and every nose, perched hazardously on the jutting promontory, and were soon hurled into an abyssmal recipient-a lap. Surreptitiously, a sodden handkerchief was raised to this lofty peak and viciously swiped at the accumulated pool. Still the speaker wore on. Hair stuck darkly to each head, and a maelstrom of contending emotions flitted across the faces of the assembled hundreds. Backs of dresses adhered ma- liciously to the backs of chairs: collars wilted: the erstwhile beads of perspiration became raging torrents. Still the speaker bore on. This was the long-awaited County Graduation Day, in which the eighth-grade Cnow the Junior Classj carried off top honors. Finally the valedictory and salutatory addresses were given by members of this remarkable class Cwho, by the way, had previously attained high honors in the state for athleticsj. At long last, however, the medals were presented along with the diplomas: and the whole of the assembly trooped out into the oppressive sunshine. Entering high school the next year, this same class readily adapted itself to the routine of life at Chilli High. Through our Freshman and Sophomore years, we, never daunted, have always achieved our goal and have been rewarded by our cherished position on the campus. Upon our entry into high school, we chose Miss Morrison as our class advisor: and she has been reelected each year to this post by this self same class. For president of our class this year, we chose Bob Sledgister. who filled the same position in our class the year before. Marianne Fleetwood was elected vice- president, and Rosemary Meller, secretary-treasurer. The Juniors have sponsored a good many dances this season in order to appropriate funds for the J unior-Senior Prom, held at Shore Acres Country Club in May. Music for dancing at this great occasion was furnished by Mel Brook- ings and his orchestra. Stunt Night was held on April 4. The Junior Class Play, given on April 28, was entitled, Professor, How Could You! This dramatic presentation, in the opinion of the Juniors, undoubtedly surpassed the Senior' Play, inasmuch as we had material with which to work and more resources from which to draw. Looking ahead into the realms of the future, one will see that those who accomplish deeds, overcome great obstacles. and achieve success in face of count- less defeats, are, in a word, those who entered this high school in the year of our Lord, 1941, and those who intend to leave it in the year of our Lord, 1945.

Who put on the greatest of great Sopho- more Carnivals? Who initiated the Freshmen to the nth degree? Who sold the most subscriptions to this little tabloid of high school highlights? The truth of this matter is-the Sophomoresl If you don't believe this, ask any Sophomore. Three of the reasons for these statements of fact are Jack Mooney, President, Mary Lou Davis, vice-president: and Emma Vonk, secretary-treasurer. First event of the school year was the Sophomore Carnival. This went over big, with the marriage bureau, fortune telling booth, the fighting and box- ing shows, and something new that was originated by the Sophomores Cboysj a-the kissing booth. Of course, the girls had charge of it. Next on our calendar of events came the day of intrigue and mystery, as well as misery, for the Freshmen. After the Freshmen were initiated and their fears were calmed. refreshments were served and dancing was the order of the evening. Throughout the football season, the Sophomore class was very well repre- sented by four lettermen from its class: Claude Mann, Phil McCormick, Jack Fisher, and Jack Mooney. During this season, the most excitement was created by the Homecoming. The Sophomore Class was especially glad to have Mary Lou Davis as its class queen at this event. At the half, Miss Davis, an attendant in the court of the Homecoming queen, Marjorie Thomas, rode on the beautiful float of red, white, and blue. When that new love -basketball-opened season, starlets from the Sophomore class again appeared. In this Held they were: Phil McCormick, Jack Mooney, and Claude Mann. ' Leading the Chilli spectators in cheering for both football and basketball squads were two prominent Sophs, Shirley Schwarz and Nadine Bertschi. A Yearbook contest among Chilli's four classes was sponsored by the Sen- iors. As usual, the Sophomore class came in to home base first-this time with one hundred per cent of Yearbooks sold. Several days later, the Seniors re- traced our route with their one hundred per cent. lt must be said, though, that the Seniors gave us a nice party. We will long remember our Sophomore days as being exciting, full of fun, and, at times, hilarious. We would like to thank Miss McKray, our classvad- visor, for everything she has put up with the last two years. We'll try to be better next year!

October the twelfth found the following people elected officers of the Freshman class: Adrian Johnson ,..... . . ,..,,l....... President Ruth McDonough ..... .l..,,.., V ice-President Patricia Israelson ..,...,,l...,. Secretary-Treasurer Charles Johnson and Yvonne Kowasch were elected to represent the class in the Student Council, and Mr. Taylor served as Class Ad- visor. The Freshman Class was already well known in Chilli, having founded the Eighth Grade Annual Minstrel Show. So it was natural for some of the Freshman members to be picked for the Operetta. These were Gene Fisher, Yvonne Kowasch, and Merri Fenn. As the Sophomores were jealous of our accomplishments, on November the eleventh, Initiation Day, they dressed the boys as girls, the girls as boys, and, to add to the general state of confusion, yelled Air Raid, at which We had to fall on the floor until the All Clear , was given. That night the bewildered Freshmen were called upon by a court of oflicials, a judge, and a speaker, to show their so-called talent by washing one another's feet with a tooth-brush, taking an imaginary airplane ride, and having an imaginary telephone con- versation. But the Freshmen emerged from all this as chipper and cheerful as ever. As the Sophomores saw they couldn't keep a good fellow down, they gave in and treated us with a dance, much to our delight. Although we didn't have any regulars on the football team, there were some freshmen who did a lot of substituting. We also have produced some pretty good fellows in the line of track. The second team in basketball, made up chiefly of Freshmen, has won most of its games. Well, Sophs, how're we doing? The 1944 Chxlliscope Uwzgdwal... I am just a shell of brick and mortar, an imposing structure of doors, win- dows, lockers, and desks .... I am dead-yet I live-many lives. I am proud- proud of those familiar faces that I see every day, proud of those faces I have seen, proud of those names on my honor roll, and oh! so proud, and not a little sad, when I think of those gold stars on my flag. I am proud, I am happy, sad-I have many emotions, for am I not alive? I am boisterous when I am filled with wildly cheering basketball fans: I am learned, for I am a house of learning: and perhaps when there are semester exams, I suffer and sweat a little, IOO. You'll excuse me if I tell you more about myself. I am a two-story brick building, surrounded by ample, well-landscaped grounds which change their raiment with the seasons, and I have seen many changes of raiment. I will see many more, for I have confidence in my strength-my firm foundations. Behind me there is a football Held that has seen the din of conflict.

Mr. Adams, who had never coached football before, took over the job. Our season started at Russell Field with the Manual Rams as opponents. They defeated us 37-6, our lone touchdown being scored by Torn Mooney on a breath-taking 30-yard run. Highlights of the Washington game were the line-playing of Lewis and the open field running of Murphy. Lewis ac- counted for two touchdowns, while Johnson, T. Mooney, and Truitt added one each. Johnson added an extra point. The 1944 Chzllzscope The next home game was the best witnessed this season. Although no points were scored, both teams were fighting hard for a touchdown. The Ghosts' line showed their strength by stopping play after play without giving ground. Placher, Kelly, and Burkholder showed their great defensive ability in this game. Jack Mooney did all of our scoring in the Bradford game. He followed excellent blocking and ran 40 yards for a touch- down. Soon afterward, Bradford's center made a high pass that went over the receiver's head. Since the ball went out of the end zone, Jack immediately fell upon it and scored a safety. With less than a minute to go, Bradford scored its second touchdown to win the game. We defeated El Paso before an exceedingly large Homecom- ing crowd. Lewis scored both of our touchdowns on line plunges. El Paso had us frightened throughout the last half by nearing our goal time after time, but they were unable to score. Elwell of Dunlap proved too much for our team. He went through our line almost at will and did much damage. Lewis scored our single touchdown by going through the opponents just before the half ended. Thus, the Ghosts met defeat on their home Held for the first time in several years. Everyone went into our final game with the thought of winnbing it for the Seniors. It didn't take long for the Ghosts to start rolling across the goal line as Johnson threw three touchdown passes to J. Mooney. Lewis added two more. and Johnson another for good measure. Johnson, Lewis, and Mann also added extra points after touchdowns. Throughout the whole season the plunging of Lewis, the passing of Johnson, and the cunning running of Murphy, Fisher, and T. Mooney were outstanding. These backs, to- gether with a good line, enabled pus to finish our season with three defeats, four victories, and one tie. Lettermen this year were Merle Johnson fhonorary cap- tainj, Ira Placher Cmost valuable playerj, Ralph Lewis, Hap Murphy, Clyde Martin, Tom Mooney, Kenny Burkholder, Bob Bierwirth, Fred Kelly, Frank Hartzell, Jack Fisher, Claude Mann, Phil McCormick, Jack Mooney, Dick Fink, and Don Schielein Cmanagerj. , The 1944 Chzllzscope 1943 A TISKETZ A TASKETY 1944 After casting aside those football uniforms, the Grey Ghosts, ably tutored by Coach Arthur Lambert, readily and enthusiastically took up that universally popular sport, basket- ball. With the exception of Merle Johnson and Tom Mooney, Seniors and returning letter- men, the basketball squad was made up of former Ghostlings and Freshmen. Beginning what looked like a disastrous season, the team began improving and continued to do so until at last they aroused a little school spirit, created a Chilli Basketball World, and managed to Hnish the season with fourteen wins and eleven losses. The reserves turned in a very favorable season, winning fourteen of their twenty-one games. Chilli had its ups and downs all winter long: she was up during her eight-game winning streak and vice versa on February ll, when she met and was defeated by the Cady-Johnson combination from Brimiield. At the Princeville Holiday Tournament Chilli took third place, since they were defeated in the first game by Princeville and came back to beat Wyoming, 25-20, in a rather rough second game. On the 29th of February the Grey Ghosts advanced to the East Peoria Regional, where they met the Panthers of Washington Qtournament dark-horsesj: it was here that the Ghosts vanished to the tune of 48-32. ln Kickapoo Conference standings, Chilli again held down second place. If there are any basketball fans who are leaving Chilli through disappointment in the 1944 basketball team, we beg them to look forward to a very successful season next year, since graduation will dissolve only the scoring ability of Merle Johnson and the aggressiveness of Tom Mooney. Providing Uncle Sam sees lit, live lettermen CBruce Watkins, Jack Mooney, Bob Sledgister, Claude Mann, and Phil McCormickj and Coach Lambert will be welcomed back to vain-gloriously carry the torch of victory through 1944-45. Others who contributed and were greatly appreciated during this season were the man- agers, Marvin Dunlap and Don Schielein, and Shirley Schwarz, Nadine Bertschi, and Ray Bornsheuer, the morale-builders.

Council Doings This year the Student Council of Chillicothe is in its eighth year of active service, expanding and adding new activities as time passes, and, because of the faithfulness of its president and members, has accomplished several tasks. Among the activities undertaken this year were revision of the Service Flag, selection of Tempest staff members, promotion of the sale of war stamps and bonds by holding fifteen-minute assemblies, and contributions to the financing of the cheerleaders' suits. The annual Homecoming, sponsored by the Stu- dent Council, met with great response. One of the latest activities is helping to manage the new recreation center, located in the downtown district. The presiding officers this year are Merle Johnson, president, and Shirlee Brumhead, secretary-treasurer. The District Convention of Student Councils was held in Peoria, Novem- ber 6, at Central High School, and the State Convention, at the Sherman Hotel in Chicago, on April 15 and l6. As members of the Council, we feel this organization holds a responsible place in school life by promoting cooperation and sportsmanship. We have been happy to serve our school, As a group we are very proud of our Student Council and all the worth- while things it stands for: those of us who are Seniors are quite reluctant to leave our associates. But to you who take up the torch and carry on, we wish 'ithe best of everything. 36 The 1944 Chilliscope 4 i.-....--. Majorettes-Shirley Schwarz. Marilyn Wagle, Nadine Bertschi, Willa Scoon.

At Christmas the combined classes gave a concert of Carols. The fourth-hour class, composed of girls, sang several times at special occasions. A Senior Sextet, composed of Senior girls, was chosen from the music classes. They were Jean Penn, LaVonne Rehbein, Orva Jane Mullen, Helen Witham, Wilda Huckins, and Roberta Allen.

Let 'em Roll Have you heard the latest? is a question best answered by the Chilli Tempest of 1944. This year the Tempest has come into the limelight of C.H.S. Credit for this is due to the Editor, Tom Mooney, and his ability to see that the staff produces the paper in a most satisfactory fashion. We can illustrate this by saying proudly that the Tempest of '44 has pub- lished no issue of fewer than 12 pages of variety. A sports review, class notes, feature articles, special editorials, music, and gossip truly give variation to our paper. Like weeds in a garden, new feature departments have sprouted out of this past nine months' Tempests. Some of these were The Mirror, Ramblin' Through the Classrooms, Korny Korner, Wise Willie, and Happy Birth Daze. Modern Papyrus has fallen into the clutches of Mr. Scarcity, thus making it necessary for the staff to exhibit its talents every three weeks instead of bi- weekly, as previous conditions allowed. The Senior members of the staff leave a challenge to the remaining under- classmen of C.H.S.-to produce a paper with the aforementioned qualities of the Tempest of '44, Diu memoiria tenebitur!! 38 The 1944 Chilliscope First row-Lottie Sarver, Roberta Allen, Doris Day, Jean Fenn, Barbara Estes, Orva Jane Mullen, Marjorie Thomas, LaVonne Rehbein, Zora Crotz, Shirlee Brumhead, Shirley Schwarz, Shirley Sefried.

They elected an editor, Orva Jane Mullen, assistant editor, Barbara Estes, and a business manager, Jean Fenn. These peo- ple have been aided by the assistance of Mr. Wilkinson and the members of the student body chosen for the staff. Not only have the Seniors put forth a great effort toward this successful yearbook, but members of the other three classes who are on the staff must be thanked for their efforts. The united item of concern was whether the class would have sufficient funds to finance such a project. With due consideration, we undertook the task and have gone over the top in raising the needed funds. Much work has been done to produce this book for you stu- dents and the school: and we hope you get as much pleasure out of it as we got in giving it to you.

In Gay Havana In Gay Havana takes place in the patio of Isle de Cuba, a newly-opened hotel man- aged by Senor Alvarez Uack Fishery. The flrst guests are American college boys led by Stan CBob Sledgisterj and Tom CFrank I-Iartzellj. They are joined by Margot Mean Fennj and her mysterious companion, Senora X CFred Kellyj, Because of a Latin-American revolution, the party is confined to the hotel. Stan falls in love with Margot while Tom pays court to Carmen CMarianne Fleetwoodj, A1varez's daughter. Carmen, because of ubiquitous chaperons, cannot acknowledge her feel- ings for him. Senor Valdez CDick Schaffnerj, seeking important government documents, the bearer of which will utter the password, Cuba Libre, finds refuge in the hotel. Through fate the meek and submissive Sister Beadle CBetty Roebuckj utters the password, and much to the consternation of her domineering sister, Maudie Belle CElinor Andersonj is pursued by this gentleman. Suspense is added by the disappearing of Margot and the kidnapping of George Potter CBud Parsonsj. Margot, her secret mission accomplished, finally returns to the hotel. Stan demands an explanation of her absence, which she is unable to give. In order to conceal her hurt feelings, she pretends to regard their affair as a light flirtation, but Stan effects a reconciliation. George reappears and discloses the identity of his captor, Senora X, who is Margot's father and the real bearer of the documents Sr. Valdez is seeking. Margot is permitted to ex- plain her departure. In the meantime Carmen's chaperons have won the lottery and depart for a home in the suburbs. Carmen and Margot are sent to a school in the states, which particularly satisfies Stan and Tom. The operetta is a satire on Cuban customs. Others in the cast are Nadine Bertschi, Ira Placher, Merri Fenn, Gene Fisher, Don Reed, and Yvonne Kowasch. A large chorus adds charm and local color. Miss Opal McKray, our music director, had the assistance of Miss Mavis Conlee, dancing instructor, Miss Ethel Gerber, Spanish dialect, and Mrs. Dorothy Pruett. costumes. 40 The 1944 Chilliscope Firsl row-Miss McKray, Barbara Estes, Doris Day, Jean Fenn, Roberta Allen, Margie Thomas, LaVonne Rehbein, Zora Crotz, Shirlee Brumhead, Second row-Darrell Crotz, Hugh Garnett, Paul Vonk, Norman Wilkey, Roy Coon, Tom Mooney, Orva Jane Mullen. Wings Over Washington After many headaches for Miss McKray and much rehearsing for us, the Seniors finally presentedlthe mystery-comedy 'lWings Over Washington on November 19. At eight o'clock the curtain parted revealing a mysterious person office, From then on the twelve Seniors kept the very edge of their seats, chewing their linger nails.

Grace Stevens, an FBI agent CJean Penny was sent to Dr. Hardy's laboratory as an investigator and bodyguard. Darrell Crotz appeared as Harry Seville, comptroller of the nearby university. Roberta Allen acquired quite an accent to play Olga Korestelev, a Russian dancing teacher. Ray Born- sheuer was the dumb cop: Barbara Estes, the eccentric housekeeper, Mrs. Stokes: and Doris Day, Nora, the maid. During the play's two-and-one-half hours, Nora, the maid, was poisoned: Dr. Hardy and Grace Stevens disappeared: Hal and Bess Summers and Harry Seville were discovered to be spies and taken to jail. Love interest was added to the plot by the romance of Harvey and Fran. Throughout the evening We Were kept guessing as to Who were the real crooks. Mrs. Stokes, the housekeeper, kept snooping around, Miss Korestelev paid too much attention to Fran's brother, Bob. Comedy was added by the sleuthing efforts of the small-time cop, Hiram J. Wilmore. The Senior Thespians agreed that staging a play is no pushover, but they chalked up the experience as good fun. Credit is due Paul Vonk, stage manager: Zora Crotz, business manager: Shirlee Brumhead, props manager: and Orva Jane Mullen, prompter.

Professor, How Could You! Until the office of Dean of the home-town college was offered to him Keats Perry had only one woman in his life, Cleopatra. With the promotion, however, came the problem of finding a wife, for the Dean had to be a married man. Not knowing women, Keats asked his best friend, John Appleby, to und a suitable girl that wouldn't cause too much trouble. The complications that resulted when a contest was made out of the search for a wife were hilarious. The butler, Grandpa Perry, John, and a girl student all picked a candidate and put ten dollars in a vase. The winner was Grandpa Perry's choice. He had chosen Vicky Randolph, a student who was trying to get revenge on Keats for threatening to expel her. How they fell in love and how everything turned out happily in the end, provided the ro- mantic interest of the evening. Characters in this very successful Junior Play were: Keats Perry, a young professor CBob Sledgisterjz Vicky Randolph, the bane of his life CKay Youngj 3 Grandma Perry, an oblig- ing soul CMarianne Eleetwoodjz Grandpa Perry, an innocent bystander CEd Sweetnambz John Appleby, a helpful friend CErank Hartzellj: Priscilla Morley, a sweet ycpung thing CHelen Haasj: Tootsie Bean, a plump spinster CBetty Talbertjz Butcher Boy Bean, her big brother CBruce Watkinsj: Valerie Whitman, a Southern charmer CI-lelen Snyderbz Bog- gins, the sporting butler CDean Rigginsj.

The 1944 Chilliscope Makes You Wanna Dance To perform, either alone or with others: to move or seem to move nimbly or merrily, commonly to music: to trip, glide, or leap rhythmicallyf' This, to Mr. Webster, is the definition of dance We sometimes wonder if this is always true: however, in the years to come, we can look back in mem- ory to our '43 and '44 dances. Tears may be shed: yet, I'm sure joy will fill our hearts when we recall some of the happenings of the evenings that we so well participated in. Perhaps, it isn't the dance itself you remember, but the efforts you spent beautifying the gym or serving on the cleanup committee. Several months ago, after our gallant triumph over El Paso, we flocked like birds into our Alma Mater. In the gym the sight of the colorful streamers, attractively arranged with a red heart in their midst, met our eyes. A decorative chair was placed on the stage for the Homecoming queen, and Welcome El Paso, spelled the well-cut letters on the curtain. At the Christmas holiday dance, Yuletide trimmings enhanced the surround- ings. The red and green streamers floated lazily from the ceiling, with the familiar face of Santa Claus peering at us from every angle. The Christmas tree helped to provide enough light for dancing, and refreshments of ice cream and cookies were served to appease our hunger. A party was given by the Seniors for members of the class who reached their goal first in selling yearbooks. Sophomores, having filled their quota first, were the guests of honor. Ice cream and cookies were served: most of the evening was spent in dancing. February 25 we had a barn dance, our first costume affair of the year. The girls came wearing gingham dresses and sunbonnets or overalls and straw hats. The boys wore overalls and plaid shirts. Sometimes we assembled in the gym after a football or basketball game for a dance. We were always fortunate to have music supplied by some of our favorite celebrities-Harry James, Bing Crosby, Frank Sinatra, Tommy and Jimmy Dorsey. No matter how we got our music Con recordsj, I think we shall always have the feeling, i'Let's dance. SO SHALL YE DO Thou shalt not walk in Senior hall. Run. Thou shalt not whisper in classes. Talk.
