Tennant, who has sacrificed much for us. It is our wish to express our appreciation for the capable, willing job of advising that he has done the last three years One of his best virtues is his quiet and serene nature. His enduring and untiring patience has no equal, His enthusias- tic and helpful manner has made our association with him at all times a pleasant one, His guidance has inspired us. He has given us his best, and we are grateful. Z FACULTY Top Row: Left to Right: Miss Williams In her first year of teaching she has won the friend- ship of the high school students with her charming manner and sincere friendliness. To her we owe thanks for the many hours and headaches she spent in supervising and advising the Ternpest staff. Miss Hurt This soft-spoken lady will long be remembered by the commercial students of C.H.S. for her understanding patience and unrelentless efforts to help each and every one of her students. Mrs. Trulin Her forceful manner of teaching has revealed the intellectual side of English and Speech to her many students. Even the unpleasantness of the subjects will be forgotten for the finer things learned. Miss Moulton For boundless patience and sound advise she has endeared herself to her stud ents. If the pupil has any ambition whatsoever he need never fear failing her courses, for he cannot help but learn. Mrs. McMullen For information on information Mrs. Mac is your woman. Her advice and help on digging information from piles upon piles of volumes has helped many a student get a paper in on time--excuse me--hand in a theme. Miss Gerber Her shorthand students appreciate the many patient hours spent in drilling in rudiments which make shorthand stay with them, And her Spanish students are grateful for the richer life she has opened to them. 3 rules of the game, be it football, basketball, track, or life.

C. she has become an indispensable member of the faculty. To her the girls of the school owe their rudimentary knowledge of home making, Mrs. Pruett Her charming manner and poise have made Home Economics a course of in- estimable value to the C. H. S. girls. In her they find a model to follow in their own living. Sitting: Left to Right: Mr. Mercer His affectionate chidings have placed him in the hearts of his boys. They will remember him for his patient teaching in spite of their misdemeanors Mr. Miles With us only a semester he has won a place in each student's heart for his re- freshing view on life and teaching.

I see by your hand a great career in store for you as a model. All the women in New York will be clamoring to see the new spring fashions that you will make famous. But tragedy will enter your life, for you will break one too many men's hearts. Here comes dear ole 'Fergie Lu'f Your hands show that you will still be writing love letters to the Navy. But let rne warn you that you had better be on the lookout because you never can tell when one of them is coming home! Your hand, Miss Hart. In the very near future you will be married to Virgil, who recently brought you a new Harley-45 motorcycle, and now you can both practice for the annual motorcycle races. Your hand shows that within a short time you will be serving as President Trurnan's private secretary. And, Rarnona Pence, it looks as if you will be also made special arnbassador to Mexico. Now that Mary Lu Nelson has finally settled. down to one man, I see for you, Georgia ter Veen, a full-tirne job as secretary of C. H. S. Now you can have atry at Tom! 17 J.

H. S. It was rather warm that day, around 90 degrees on the field, if I remember right. Bob Stedman, a Freshman at Bradley, has the pleasure of running us through calisthen- ics. We all felt as if we were sweating blood before the day was over. Two weeks later found us more fit to play the game of football, Our first encounter of the season was with the Washington eleven. At the final whistle the score stood 6-0 with us on the short end. But you must remember that out of eleven players only four were let- termen on last year's squad. Most of the boys hadn't played varsity ball before and as a result we were a bit green. In the following games we improved tremendously. Princeton, a very high classed team, gave us a working over, but the boys looked like a new team on defense even though the score didn't indicate it. Gants collected 13 tackles followed by Harney with ll. Leak, Chi1li's star kicker, was a great help in setting our opponents in the hole a lot of times with long punts. The weeks that followed found us playing good ball and winning our share. In the game of the season against Farmington, who was supposed to run all over us, we held them to a Z1 to 6 count. In that game the boys held Farmington's Paul Hewitt, one of the leading scorers in the state, scoreless. Citation Horton romped over for the only Chilli score. Yes, we pulled an upset, over highly favored Toulon, supposedly three touchdowns better: but we ended up on top of a 14 to 6 decision. We were without the ,services of Benny Razo and Ernie Reese, both boys broke ankles in the Dunlap game. Bob Gants and Russel Button were the backfield replacements for the remainder of the season. Our homecoming was a success although Morton edged a 7 to 6 triumph in the last 3 or 4 minutes. Bob Leak's conversion for the Chilli squad hit the crossbar, bounded high into the air, and dropped onto the field inches short of a tied ball game. Our last game found eight Seniors playing their final game for C. H., S. on the gridiron. The Ghosts thoroughly tromped Tremont 33 to 14. In this last game all the Seniors were stand- outs, both on offense and defense. 43 ncH!CKff VEDDQEII +ESK'Eu A 4' ,L --'- as if , .7 fi J 4 SPHRKIE CSTHTION PlsTo1.'

His defensive record and those three black eyes he earned. The 80 yard punt. A great punting performance that so many times pull- ed Chilli out of the hole. Being elected co-captain and the offensive and defensive record he leaves to his credit. The bushel basket he used to catch passes with and the broken bones ac- quired. Also his knowledge and experience with women. Taking over a tackle position and doing a great job despite the swollen lips. A11 210 pounds of him. A hard man to move out of the line. Being a good tackler and the ability to throw the opponents for a loss. Being next year's captain, the great job as quarterback, and those down- field blocks.

BASKETBALL ' On November Z6 the sports enthusiasts of C.H.S. turned their thoughts from the gridiron to the hardwoods, Looking over the varsity squad that reported to Coach Taylor we found that only two boys remained from last year's starting five. These were Seniors Bob Leak and Tom Grabill. The team's wins were rather scattered this year mostly because of inefficiency under the bankboardsg however, the boys played their hearts out in every game that they entered and they never gave up before the final whistle no rnatter what the score might have been. The Ghosts notched impressive wins over such teams as Lacon,' Washington, Sparland, Brimfield, and Eureka, and fought a good battle against the best. fcont.Q 48 TOP ROW: Left to Right: Dick Smith, Bill LeMaster, Don Lucas, Earl Worrick, Phil Ordaz, Richard Gollnitz. BOTTOM ROW: Bennie Razo, John Babington, Tom Northrup, Dick Irions, Ray Fernandez. fcont.J In the scoring department, LeVon Pence led the way with 176 points followed closely by team captain Tom Grabill with 170, Bob Leak came in third with 146. In Illio Confer- ence play Leak led the way with 62 points in seven contests followed by Grabill with 61. The Wee Ghosts, future varsity, gave themselves a substantial background, turning in a win- ning season, It was very encouraging to watch their brand of basketball, as it spelled no good for Chi11i's future opponents. As we look back over the season we find a not too impressive won and lost columng however, we do find that under the excellent guidance of Coach Taylor, the boys learned how to be good winners, good losers, and always to be the best of sportsmen whether on or off the basketball court. 49 96004020 WIIISFV v WPIIDQI-SSW CHIC KCI ERNIE USPRRKIE Il ' PISTOL TOM GRABILL BOB LEAK LEVON PENCE ERNIE REESE JIM HARNEY ELLIS HORTON BOB GANTS ALBERT RAMOS DON RANKIN HEROES OF THE HARDWOOD Sparkie as he was called by his teammates, was one of the main- stays of the basketball team. His physical properties consisted of 140 lbs. and 5' 8 in height, but he was mighty! Puddles was the name given him by the boys. He stood 6' Z tall and weighed 166 lbs. He was at returning letterman that was known for his left-handed push shots from the middle of the floor. Pistol was the name he acquired in grade school. He was 5' 5 tall and tipped the scales at 135 lbs. He was small but very efficient and could handle those one-handed push shots nicely. Plurisy,f' as he was called, was a good ball player and a good shot, Ernie stood 5' 8 tall and weighed in the neighborhood of 140 lbs, He will be playing for Chilli these next two years. Chicken started playing basketball in his Junior year and earned a berth on the varsity in his Senior year. He was 6' l tall and weigh- 160 lbs. His rebounding and pivot shots will be greatly missed next year. Ish, as he was called, was a rugged rebounder when he could come down on his feet. He stood about 6' tall and weighed about 160 lbs. He had beautiful red hair that would remind you of a forest fire. Gom0e, a name he acquired in grade school, has stuck with him all the way through high school, He stood 6' tall and weighed 170 lbs. He was a player with plenty of drive and determination. Moose, he was called by his grade school coach. He was 5' 11 tall and weighed about 150 lbs. He was a scrappy, hard-driving player. Only a Sophomore, he will be back for two more years. Don was only a Junior, so you can look for him back next year. He was 5' 8 tall and weighed 140 lbs. He started the season with the Wee Ghosts, but saw plenty of action with the varsity before the season was over. 51 Chilli Chilli Chilli Chilli Chilli Chilli Chilli Chilli Chilli Chilli Chilli Chilli Chilli Chilli Chilli Chilli Chilli Chilli Chilli Chilli Chilli Chilli VARSIT Y BASKE T BALL SCORE BOARD Qlllio Tourney, fllegionall Chilli 44 Chilli 14 Chilli 38 Chilli Z8 Chilli 43 Chilli 49 Chilli 42 Chilli 43 Chilli 43 Chilli 43 Chilli 42 Chilli 26 Chilli Z3 Chilli 58 Chilli 37 Chilli 58 Chilli 40 Chilli 30 Chilli 49 Chilli 43 Chilli 37 Metamora Morton Central Dunlap Brimfie ld Sparland Farmington Lacon Henry Wa shington Eureka Spalding Gla s for d Farmington Brimfie ld Princeville Dunlap Elmwood Tremont Prince ville Henry East Peoria anon caan sooo nano sooo esac ooo nano sooo sooo ones anus sooo anno noun noon anon coco anne anne noon uses J.
