FOREWORD This book is the nearest to us, for it contains our very thought, our ambitions, our indignations, our illusions, our fidelity to truth, and our persistent leaning toward error.

As time went on some dropped out, Ami new ones came, Making.: our mnulver about the SZIIIIU. We missed the olsl fzu-es, but welcomed the new, And always proved faithful, tried and true. We are journeying.: on toward our Junior year, Still elinihing the lzultler of fume without fa-ur. In '26 we numbered twenty-three, But n happier enlss you seldom will see. Dean' tem-hers uml schoolmates, we hid you mlieu, But we will vherish your memory, Ami think kimlly of you. For we will soon on the sen of life set snil.

But of the fates of the Seniors dear Graduates of E. T. H. S.-'27 the year! Ethel Lawson, who, no doubt You'll all admit was very stout, ls now keeping new styles on the hop As n model in a New York Shop. Rachel Barnum is winning renown By playing her piano in that town. Her dimples and her lovely smile Have knocked some millionaire for a mile. Ike and Red, now groom and bride With Murphy for their latter name, At Monte Carlo have won much fame. And Nancy Karr in all her jollies Has made a hit with Ziegtield Follies. Nellie Garee, I'll 'tell you true, Is also in this grand Revue. Next we jump to Russia-by gee, The home of the Bolshevist-and here we see, Elmer Wasman, and his game Is shooting Reds, much too tame. Burrell Walden, a once peaceful boy, ls helping Elmer to the latter's joy: And with the soap box for his stand Can be seen addressing a Bolshevist band. Gertrude Ratliff at quite a rate ls in the land of Palms and Dates. While Ruth Bledsoe from absurd to sublime, Is seen in the barber shop most of the time. William Sigler is often seen His Rolls-Royce eating up gasoline, , And many a girl would give here right hand To be riding with William around the land. William Dooley of the '27 class Is married to a LeRoy lass. He spends most of his time galore, Selling clothing in The How store. Margie Patterson now plays the part, ln the U. of I. as a Physics shark. The sight of Edna Gassner, would no doubt Make a deaf man hear and a dumb one shout, For Edna is now in the ministry, Quite different from what it used to be! In London the popular Prince of Wales Is no longer balancing on horses tails, But sure enough-she falls- For this time it is Marjorie Deffenbaugh. Sartain 8z Walden is the name of a firm Established in Boston, with money to burn. The fruit of the business, through funny it seems Is can after can of Pork and Baked Beans. While Beatrice and Pauline. threw down several bids To tell bedtime stories to little kids. Now drawing this nonsense to a conclusion The writers wish to keep their names in seclusion. -'27 oioiozoicvieriixicvicvioiozoioi 1 Q 2' 7 ioicixoioioioifvicnicvioicricnin H81 -..- THE MEL-TING POT -..- -..U-......

Right at the present we are sailing through High School Days. It is a long. hard stretch and we are slow, hut sure. This is the thlrd large harbor we have gone speeding through since we set sail on this sea. The tlrst harbor was called Fl'PSlllll6ll. We were very green then, hut we pro- gressed rapidly and when we gallantly sailed into the second port called Sophomore, we were a very polished crew. About every six weeks we encounter a storm with high waves. Some of our crew get scared and jump out on large rocks and wait till the next ship comes along, hut the majority of our crew just buckle down with a grin and hit those report card wares with a one, We never give up and we never get into a rut, because we have found that ruts are worse tlmn graves. 'l'hls year we sailed through the third harbor called Junior, We stopped here and gave a play called 'l'he Family Upstairs. Our Captain.. Miss Hodge, coached us. lt was a howling success aml each one of our crew helped to make it so. With the money we made, we are going to give the ship, that is many miles ahead of us, a hanquet. We are going to send them a cahlegram telling them to drop their anchor until we reach them. We think this will help them as they are passing through the fourth and last harbor called Senior, in High School Days. We have a splendid crew: we shine like the evening stars in everything. For, he who has a purpose has a guiding star. We do not try dying, hut we are going to die trying. Just watch our crew and see. We elected Chester Bishop as man. of honor on our ship this year. Anyone who wishes to visit us, we will welcome them and lead them through the ship that stands for truth, purity, and work. And some day, our crew will hurn their names in history and literature. .lust watch and see! Dorothy Humphrey.

Upon awakening in the waste paper basket of the assembly room, he exclaimed to his wide-awake cousin, Jimmy Mouse, Uh where! Uh where have the verdant Freshmen gone? Jimmy Mouse clhnbed to the top of the basket and responded, They are safe in the Sophomore class. Well, well. that certainly seems funny, remarked .Johnnie Mouse. Did you know', resmned Jimmy Mouse, that they elected! Earl Heidleberg for president, Vlyde Killion for vice president, Muriel Keenan for the secretary, and Verna Wasman for treasurer? Yes, they were tlne officers, but they had to call for help from Miss Schenfeldt to hold them down sometimes, because they were the 'peppiest' class ill school. tlne night they had a wiener roast out at Kent Pole-n's, and they ran out of marsh- mallows, but Miss Schenfeldt was smart enough to bring along some extra ones. This wasn't the craziest thing they did, however. On one of the coldest nights last winter, they went out to the golf grounds. sliding. Next day every on.e came to school with red noses, and most of the Freshmen shivered in school for wweeks afterwards. Then they had a Valentine Party. Some of the most green and bashful, proved to be reckless while they were playing 'Wlnk.' Next day, everyone went around saying, 'Gee, wasn't that cake good ?' 'Didn't we have fun with those pennies? Last spring, the 'Freshies' made a pilgrimage to West Park, but to some of those who rode in the so-called 'fresh air tlivvers,' it seemed as though they were crossing the Sahara. But when they got there, the wind had stopped blowing and everyone washed his face. The 'eats' were laid out on the table and- everyone made himself at home. But alas! the lce-cream wasn't there yet, and everybody had to wait. At' the end of the short period, 'Flip' I'hillip's old Ford pulled into camp with the ice-cream. After this had been eaten. they started to play some games. but the rain drove them home. Then after the long, hot wearisome summer of '26 had passed, they all came back just as peppy as ever. For this year they elected Mildred Sandt for president, Orpha Hair for vice president, Leonard Lockett for treasurer, and Verna Wasman for secretary. They had another wiener roast this year at Blaine Lowe's pasture. Some of the boys took some animation with them, I guess they were afraid of 'Injuns.' However, nobody was reported dead next morning. Before the rehearsal of the 'XVorld XVar,' they played some of their old favorites like 'The Flying Dutchman' and 'Too Late for Supperf Un the twenty-ninth of Uctober the Sophomores were given a chance to win the Big Advertising Party. Well they painted the whole town red with advertisements of the 'Great Walter Camp and Dad's Day' game between H. T. H. S. and Chenoa. Then 'came the down'-we w'on by golly, we won! Such a .partygit was a wonder. Mac took the part of the davenport in the serious little drama, 'The Gathering of the Nutsf Then came the 'kid party,' and everyone appeared in his second childhood. They elected Bob Hughes for Honor Student, because of his athletic ability. Bob is a thle fellow and is just the one that the Spohomores wanted to represent the kind of stuff they're made of. Well, Well, they are a great bunch, declared Johnnie Mouse, who had been the interested recipient of this dry history.

The tlrst act given the name, I-'reslnnenf' had a cast of fifty-eight characters. The play was directed under the supervision of an experienced coach, Mr. V. U. Mills. The cast chose two of their number to help their director lead them. The two that were chosen were Faye Sartain. the president, and Alice Strayer, secretary and treasurer. The tlrst scene of the play was very successful, being a result ot' an iulportant meeting of the cast. The picturesque scene revealed the grandeur of nature and the accolnplislnnent of man. in the back ground was the high brick wall of a school building. The starlit sky and the beautiful inoon over their heads made the scene more exquisite than words can express. In the foreground was a cheerful are with beaming faces peering through its glowing flames and sparks. The hearts of the actors were light and their shouts fairly rang, echoing through the clear sky. And last of all the wieners and inarslnnallows being roasted there told the audience that it was a very enjoyable wiener roast. The second scene was the revealing of the acconnplislnnents of one of the cast. The hero of the play was introduced to the audience. The hero, Cecil Robbins. won his responsible title by his llllllly llI'l'0lIl1lliShlll9llfS both in working with his fellow actors and actresses and by the active part he took in sports. The third scene of this act entitled, Freslnnen, was one which required much work especially in the arranging of the scene. The picture that greeted the eyes of the audience was a street scene. There were posters in the windows of the business houws and the side walks were painted in large white letters. The beautiful posters in the windows and the lettering on the side walks was the advertising done by the cast to announce to the public a basket ball game that took place in the drama. ln the fourth scene of this act the stage was decorate.l with the most beautiful combination of colors. The walls of the house were draped with rose and gray hanging. llere and there roses had been thrown and this of course also added to the beauty. ln the center of the stage was a large printed sign reading thus, Lend a hand. work wins everything. This not only nmde an attractive stage but it showed that the senti- lnent and choice of the cast we1'e displayed in their colors, flower and llltlffli. -Alice Strayer. 4-isuievzvvieifsiengfievxnxqxtniruz 1 Q 2 7 ini-vioioioioioiozoioioxaviuv l26l ,fi x wr' g mm Q x., A.. f -f'f '-, rrZov:1v1cv11n1as:an:4s:av:4s11n1 TH E M ELTI NG POT -1o2o:o:oio1o1o1o1o14 in FOREWORD ON EMPIRE'S FAVORITE SPORT L.

Hen was especially good on end runs and on gnabbing and breaking up the opponentls passes. Hen is a gritty player, and possesses a lot of light. He has three more years to play. RIGHT END-Bill Dooley. Bill was one of the best ends LeRoy could have secured. He proved this in every game, for when a play 'started his way, it usually stopped before it got -to the scrimmage line. Bill was also especially good on going down on punts. for he allways ttackled the opponent just as he received the ball. Bill is a Senior, and will be missed very much by next year's eleven. RIGHT TACKLE-Cliester Bishop. Chet deserved the captainshlp of the '26 eleven for he always played the game. Chet played as well on offense as defense and vice versa. He always stopped the oil' tackle smashes of the opponents and spoiled their end runs. As a captain 'Chet always had good judgment in a crisis, and he could also be depended ou to do even more than his share, for the writer played beside him and knows from personal experience. Chet is a Junior this year and at the annual football banquet. he was unanimously chosen tl1e captain of the '27 eleven. We Seniors hope he will be the leader of another undefeated eleven. RIGHT GUARD-Earl Hidleberg. Halle was an aggressive guard who broke through the opponents line and smeared up their plays. He always stopped the other team's line buck and was eager for his signal to be called so that he might open a hole for our backtield to follow. ' t'EN'l'ER-Willitam Sigler. Bill might be termed in a football team the same as a starter on a car, for he always had to start the play. This he did and did it well. Ilill was a good defensive player showin-g the best form in the Farmer Pity game. In this game he ruined their center by using his hands until they could not make a play go at all. Bill is a Senior so this is his last year of football for old- E.T.H.S. LEFT GUARD-Paul Murphy. Ike was the big boy on our team and also might be termed as A Fighting Fool on the gridiron. Ike played some at tackle on offense, but his regular position was at guard. He could alwlays smear the opponent's line plunges and was always already to try to open a hole big enough to drive a wagon through. Ike is a Senior this year and will be greatly missed in the middle of the line next year. LEFT TAf'KI.E-Harold Roggy. Haroldl played some at guard, but his regular place was at tackle. The name tackle is well suited to his actions for when he tackled them, they usually stopped. Very few plays came through him from the opponents and his oft' tackle plays were always a Go, Harold still has two more years with E.T.H.S. LEFT END-Robert Hughes. This was Bobls second year at football, but his first year as a regular at end. Bob was good on smothering end- runs and going down on punts. Bob was always at his post and might be given the name of a fighting fool. He is only a Sophomore, and has two more years to show his courage and tight. Substitutes CENTER-Clyde Killiou. Although Clyde's regular sub-position was at center, he played guard at the Farmer City game. Clyde was a good center and will probably be regular on the 1927 eleven as he played enough to get a letter this year. QUAICTERBAUK-Glen Moore. Tiny played at different positions in the backtield and he played end in one game. The only thing that kept him from gaining a regular position was his lack of weight. He has one more year in high school, and will probably nioicnivvioioieriozoioioicrioi 1 9 2 7 31:14-ioxoicvioioicninvicxxcxzoio l 30 l fv11v11v11n11riax1rm1cn14v1cr11:1 THE MELTING POT roioioioioioim gain a regular position in next year's football team.

He played at different positions in the backtleld and showed a real lighting spirit when he did play. RIGHT END-Cecil Robbins. This was Ces ' tlrst high school year and football year. He did not get much chance to play because of the excellent works of the regular end. But he will probably gain a position next year, as he played enough to gain a minor award. THE FOOTBALL GAMES LeRoy, 7-Bloomington, 0 On Saturday. September 25, famous old E. T. H. S. began their season with a victory over their battling opponent, Bloomington. As it had rained almost steadily for several weeks, the field was in the worst of conditions, but LeRoy was able to push Bloomlngton's yellow mud covered eleven, back for a touch down, which came in the last quarter, and then a drop kick which made the score 7 to 0 in I.eIioy's favor. All of the scoring was done by LeRoy's lighting, twisting quarter-back, Aaron Hill. LeRoy, 6-Clinton, 6 This game was played during the rain, thus making the ball very hard to handle. Aaron Hill broke loose for a touchdown i11 the tlrst quarter. but failed to kick goal. After this, the boys seemed to let down. and Clinton gained ground by blocking our punts. Their touchdown was made by a pass within our ow11 ten-yard line. They did not make the extra point for Bill Sigler broke through the line and hurried the kicker. Captain Bishop appeared to have the most fight for his tackling threw Clinton for many yards loss. LeRoy, 7-Fairbury, 0 LeRoy disposed of one of the strongest teams to the north of us, Friday, September 30, on the home tleld, when they held Fairbury scoreless and had a count of 7 points for themselves. The score came at the end of the tirst quarter after Fairbury had been pushed back 25 yards. the gain being made by LeRoy's plunging fullback, James Brown. Then a 30-yard run around left-end by Aaron Hill, LeIioy's speedy quarter-back, a touch- down aud a drop kick gave LeRoy her only score during the game, LeRoy, 24-Drummer, 7 This was the tlrst game away from home, and LeRoy was going good. The tlrst seore came iu the second quarter when our right end, Bill Dooley, blocked Gibsou's punt and recovered it for a touchdown. Aaron Hill made the extra point. The third quarter Gibson Pity came back with a bang. They made a touchdown on a delayed end-run. This was their only score. LeRoy's offense started business, Aaron Hill returning their punt lifty-flve yards for a touchdown. He is Red Grange to E. T. H. S. Aaron made a field goal from the thirty-yard lille soon after this touchdown. Jim Brown, our full-back, ploughed through their line for a touchdown. LeRoy was going the best yet in this game. for Gibson City was one of the strongest teams we played, as it was a veteran team. LeRoy, 10-Eureka, 0 Eureka was forced to take a beating from the hard hitting LeRoy eleven on October 22. The score was 10 to 0. Both scores were made by Aaron Hill, LeRoy's prize quarter- n1o1oioio1o2o1o1o:o1o1cx1o1 1 9 2 7 ioxeniozoioiozfnzoxoioioicvin I 31 I uvivv:cv11v11nian11v14v11n14n11vi T H E M E LTI N G POT ioicricvioioioioicvzfnioia back. The first score came to LeRoy in the Ilrst quarter, when Hill kicked a place kick between the goal posts from the forty-yard line. In the second quarter Bill Dooley blocked a Eureka kick, and LeRoy recovered the ball on the eight-yard line. One more play and Hill dashed around the end making a 10 point count for LeRoy. Both teams put up a good exhibition of lighting football all through the game. LeRoy, 34-Chenoa, 0 The tleld was comparatively dry for this game and consequently E. T. H. S. scored quite a few points. LeRoy was hitting constantly on all eleven. Several new players gained some good experience this day. The scoring was by Hill, Moore and Brown. This was the day that LeRoy learned how to run interference, and it certainly showed it for the game was more like a track meet than a football game. The meet ended 34 to 0. in old LeRoy's favor. LeRoy, 28-Paxton, 6 Empire High easily defeated Paxton high, on November 6. Early in the first quarter. Hill received a punt on LeRoy's 25-yard line, and dashed through a broken Held behind perfect interference for 75 yards, getting the first touchdown of the game. In the second quarter after Hill and Brown had carried the ball from the 30-yard line to l'axton's 15-yard line, then Hill dashed around end for six more points. In another play our prize tackle, Captain Bishop, blocked a punt from the toe of McKnight and recovered the ball on Daxton's 35-yard line. On fourth down, Hill made a place kick and added three points to the 13-point score. In the third quarter. Hill again starred by returning a punt from the 50-yard line for a touchdown. Early in the tlrst quarter, Copeland threw a beautiful pass to Bill Dooley, who cleared the field for 25 yards, making a touchdown. Then Hill made a place kick which made our score 28. With but a few minutes to play, McKnight, Paxton's star, intercepted a pass and made their only score. Thus the game ended with LeRoy 28 and Paxton 6. LeRoy, 25-Normal, 6 This game was played on Normal's new gridiron. The dope was that Normal would win, but a hard game was expected by them. The tleld was in the worst of shape, being frozen underneath and thawed on top, just enough to make it slick. Thomas, their left tackle, was expecting to smear all plays that came his way. He was dis- appointed in this. Near the end of the game he received a blow on the head that nmde him unconscious until 6:30 that evening. The whole team functioned as one who knew its duty, but Aaron outshown them all, for he made all of the points for LeRoy. LeRoy, 22-Farmer City, 0 And next came our arch rival, Farmer City, the team we had looked forward to all year. That old fighting ground gaining spirit, was in the team as they started to play on a field of deep sticky mud. LeRoy did not score in the tlrst quarter, -but in the second quarter, after Hughes, LeRoy's left end, had tackled the Farmer City man back of the goal line for a safety, Hill brought back a punt which gave us the first score of the day. Hill kicked the extra point which gave LeRoy a score of 9, and Farmer City 0. The next quarter, Ferrell carried the ball over for his first touchdown of the season. The last quarter Farmer City began to crumble and after several line plays, Hill got away for another touchdown and again he kicked goal. When the game stopped, Lelloy was near scoring again, but the end came with a final score of 22 to 0, in our favor as usual. nioioicuioxanzcnioioiozoioioi I 9 2 7 ioioxoxoisnioxoicrioicxicuioio l 32 1 .1111:1111111-11-1111111111111111 T H E M E I-Tl N G POT 11111111111111111111111111111111 14111-k Row-t1.eft to Rigrhtl Melvin t'o11e1:11111, I,1'1lll2l1' List, I,PI1l111l' l1le11, 1111111-1't Hughes, Russell M1-K1-1111, f'021l'l1 BIFIQGUI1 Fl'U11f Row---.I111111-s lh'ow11, 1.111111-11 1'1'1111111:111g:l1, A1ll'01l Hill, l's111t., line 1'o11e1111111. 1111111 Moore, Chet Bishop BASKET BALL GAMES LeRoy, 27-Deland, 21 1111 S211l1l'tl11y night, l1e1-11111111-1' 5, Lelioy 111:l5'P1l the first gaune of the season with 111-1111111 011 the l1o111e iioor.

LeRoy, 21-Alumni, 15 Some of the basket ball stars of bygone days got a chance to do their stuff on Monday night, December 20.

Although the home team was without their captain, they made passes and shot baskets like a veteran team. Glen. Moore was the star basket shooter, making nine Held goals and two free throws. LeRoy, 27-Heyworth, 8 The home team proved to be much too strong for the Heyworth five and the result was a large difference in the score. Captain Hill, Copeland and Moore formed a baffling trio on attack, while Brown and Hughes were impregnable on defense. . LeRoy, 27-Urbana High, 13 The LeRoy boys were able to push a victory over Il. of High. of Urbana, very easily. During the first quarter there was very little scoring as only two points were scored by each team. But after that the boys got going and by their excellent team work, they were able to win by a score of 27 to 13. , LeRoy, 15-Mansfield, 11 Mansfield was rated as one of the strongest teams on the hardiwood. LeRoy played a close, fast game. Manstield's five-man defense made a thrilling game for the excited spectators. The game closed' in LeRoy's favor, 15 to 11. LeRoy, 17-Bellflower, 23 This was a fast, close game as the half ended with an even score. But in the last njnarter LeRoy got ahead and a defeat looked almost impossible. But near the end of the game, Bellflower got a couple of sleepers and thus ended the game in their favor, 23 to 17. LeRoy, 8-Downs, 18 This was a hard fought game from start to flnish. But the defense of the visitors proved stronger than that of the local team and LeRoy was unable to score but two fleld goals during the entire game. LeRoy got the remainder of their points on free throws. The score being 18 to 8 in favor of Downs. LeRoy, 11-Downs, 19 Downs proved too strong a team for LeRoy. LeRoy ploayed a good game, but were unable to work their way through the tight Downs defense. This was LeRoy's third defeat from Downs. The final score was in favor of Downs. LeRoy, 7-Bellflower, 11 This was LeRoy's second' chance at Bellflower, but the 'local boys were unable to defeat the Bellflower team.

THE TRACK SQUAD OF 1927 The track squad put on their suits and were ready for a workout about the second week of April. The Freshmen were especially prevailed upon by Mac to come out and help hold up the honors of the Gold and Maroon. This they did in good style, not only for this year but for a few years to come. The 1927 track team lost some valuable men last year. those being Gene Hill, and Edward Covey, but in spite of this, E. T. H. S. placed second in the McLean County Track meet. TRIANGULAR MEET Fllflllixl' City, Gibson Pity and LeRoy opened their track season at l+'armer Uity. This meet was won by Lelioy for we took a great many first and second places. THE MCLEAN COUNTY TRACK MEET This was the twenty-sixth annual county track meet. and was held at Normal this year. It was a nice day and for once the sun shone brightly. The track was in good condition and many old records were broken and new ones established. LeRoy had its share in these for our all star athlete, Aaron Hill, tied the record in the century and made a new record of twenty-one feet and one-fourth inches in the broad jump. Hill of LeRoy was high point man. scoring three firsts or fifteen points. Bill Dooley placed second in both hurdle races and thus added six points to the total score. Linden Frinnbaugh tied with Fruin of Gridley and Copenhaver of Bellflower for first place in the high jump. They also set a new record of five feet and seven inches. Tiny Moore and Bob Hughes added one point each to the score for IC. T. H. S. by placing third in their events. Gridley won the meet with forty points. l.eRoy placed second with twenty-nine points.

Nearly everyone masked and those who didn't had the excuse that they didn't need to. The Gym was decorated in corn stalks, limbs of trees and grinning pumpkin faces. From the hard time the decorators had ln getting these things, they should have been appreciated more thanlthey were. The teachers were kids once more and entered into the games with as much fun and zest as the Freshmen. Dorothy Humphrey and Mack were on the entertain- ment commlttee. First they made the maskers walk a plank, and those who were not known were requested to remove their masks. Next they played Too Late For Supper. After much hard bumping around and many hurt feelings, they were allowed to have their fortune told at tive cents per hand. Red Bailey and Ike Murphy led the bread llnc. They led their followers around the Gym, and then into the hall where they dived for apples. Every apple cost the owner's hand an electric shock. They were then led over to a table loaded with doughnuts, grape pop, and all day suckers. lillfiil FOOTBALL BAN QUET The Fan's Association, which is an organization back of the athletic and literary activities of our High School, banqueted the football squad, the literary winners of the past four years and their mothers, to a banquet on the evening of Friday, December Il.

Berne Shively gave an interesting talk on The Llneinanf' One of the most impressive and exceptional features of the banquet was the march- ing of the football boys to the tables. escorting their mothers. Fosty said that was the tlnest thing he had ever seen at a banquet of this nature. There were old and young, parents and children, all happy and in youthful spirit. Back of it all was the satisfaction of an undefeated football team for 1926, and a tine representation among the winners in the county in literary events. ncunnumunmnm-mquuuummmnbmpmb 1 9 2 7 qwcmcmmmumnpm-wanna!-numumupo i421 . 1r:1:14x:csi1r1cr1cv14r14v1cn:1r1 TH E M E LTI NG POT ztxicnisricvicriarinviaricniuvif, J UNIOR-SEN IOR BAN QUET Z.
