It unites the Student Council with the student body and provides a clearing house for numerous problems. The social life, as sponsored by the Council, has included seven splendid dances, socials after basketball games, noon recreation, Hobo Day, and the Senior Salute. These events have added gaiety and fun to the usual routine of school life. Always open to suggestions and criticism, this organization has run the school on a true democratic basis whereby the needs and desires of the studes are fulfilled.

C. l 6 2 THE This year the Lion got off to a flying start with a sixfpage edition for the very first issue in place of the usual four. The editors, Humphrey Darwent and Vsfinston Kennedy, applied for second class mailing privileges with a view to obtain advertising for the paper. As this worked out, the Lion was able to finance several larger editions. Many other changes have taken place. The staff has worked out and printed a definite editorial policy. Also, for the first time in a number of years, juniors were admitted to the Journalism classes. The two classes include 35 seniors and 15 juniors. Because the cost of printing has increased nearly 20 per cent over last year, three issues of the Lion were omitted. To accommodate the Citizen Publish' ing Company, the day of publication was changed from alternate Fridays to Wednesdays. The Lion has a paid circulation of more than 1200 people. It is sent to about sixty alums in the serf vice free of charge, and is mailed on exchange to a number of schools. This is the Lion's 34th year of publication and its 20th year as a newspaper. lt is one of the oldest LIO high school papers in this area and its staff feels that volume 34 has added to the distinction of its history.

TABULAE TROUBLES Wzlrtime conditions have made the production of the Tab especially hard this past year. No one could possibly tell what the Tab editors, jim Edwards, Chiefg Bill Deeming and jean Wnicidbury, associatesg and the sponsor, Miss Keizer, have been through, except possibly the editors of the Lion. A shortage of paper forced the editors to cut the number of pages and the weight of the paper. The number of halftones had to be limitedg but despite these shortages the 1944 Tab is one of the best ever to be produced at L.T.H.S. After having been elected to their respective posif tions by vote of the senior class, the three editors reported to their sponsor, knowing little of what was before them. Their first job was to choose about twentyfone students to help with the various types of writefups and the various other duties, necessitaf ted to produce the Tab. Bob Drew, Tab Photographer, and his assistant, joe Froh, took the miscellaneous candid shots and helped Mr. Hinchcliffe take the various photographs. Humphrey Darwent and Albert Zimmerman wrote up boys' sports while Beverly Bestler produced the feminine writefups. janet Cadmus, Alice Powers, Joanne Wziriier, john Lindsay, and Betty Hitch covered the various clubs, while Tom Beckley ref viewed the dramatic accomplishments. Shirley Hooper and Lucille Smith discussed the musicals, Dale Davidson handled the layouts. Jean Vxfoodf bury made the clay figures which you see photo' graphed on the division pages. Barbara Thacher, Janet Cadmus, and Shirley Koven peeked away at the typewriter in order to make the writefups ready for the printer. janet Link, Virginia White, and Mary Chatten helped in various ways to make the Tab the fine book it is. The business manager, Jack Schaller, and the bus' iness adviser, Mr. Davis, took care of the financial end of the Tab and the distribution of the books. Needless to say, without the direction and cooperaf tion of Miss Keizer and Mr. Davis, the Tab could never have been produced. All the members of the Row IWB. Drew. A. Powers. B. Bestler. Wzii'ren.

The staff and the two sponsors in turn thank every' one who, by telling about their or' ganizations to those who came around to see them, made it possible to collect the reams of information that have gone into this book. EDITORS-W, Deeming, Woodbury. Edwards Everybody who stuck his head in the door, even as late as iivefthirty, thought he was entering a madhouse. Each editor had his own filing system: that's why all the shouting and the reason why even the staff was baffled at the goingsfon. With pictures and copy all over the room at times, it's amazing how the book could have finally been completed. Though occasional' ly Miss Keizer must have feared for the sanity of the staff, she found that there was method in their madness . Proof? Look at the results! Seated-S, Hooper. Link, D. Davidson.

Instead of meeting after school, the clubs this year held meetings during class, which increased memberships to include all second year language students.

GIRL RESERVES An active organization at El Tee, Girl Reserves is comparable to HifY in its aims and methods of conducting meetings, and is connected with the Y.W.C.A. They convene on the second and fourth Mondays of each month at the Westerim Springs Congregational church house. Miss Thompson, as sponsor, oversees all work and oH:ers helpful advice. The officers capably handle all meet' ings and introduce new ideas to complement the usual schedule. Barbara Kennedy, president, Muriel Powers, vicefpresidentg Myra Stewart, secretary, and Janice Jessup, treasurer, fulfilled this plan. The club is divided into six triangles, each of which is held responsible for a certain share of the club's work, and each headed by a triangle leader. The following are the six leaders: Helen Rowe, May Dearing, Jane Barber, Lorraine Whitehtiuse, Audrey Norvell, and Nlarilyn Myrmel. Triangle meetings are held generally on Thursdays. OFFICERSYB.

To back up this objective, the club sponsors the Four C's of Clean Living, Clean Athletics, Clean Speech, and Clean Scholarship. Any boy that goes to L. T. H. S. is invited to join this active organizaf tion at any time. The officers, Bill Boyer, president, George Huis' ken and Bill Knowlton, cofvicefpresidentsg Phil Rob' bins, secretary, Humphrey Darwent, treasurer-and the three cofsponsors, Mr. Don Williamson, Mr. Bud Fisher, and Mr. Harold Elliott-have cooperated in bringing the members a Hne variety of entertaining programs. The club has its religious side, too. At each meet' ing the president designates one of the members chaplain to lead an informal prayer after which all members say the Lord's Prayer. Row 1-R.

The question this year is Resolved: That the United States should join in reconstituting the League of Nations. There are fifteen people who are regular debaters and who participate in debates with other schools. Of these fifteen, five of them are freshmen, four sophomores, four juniors, and two seniors. The veterans from last year arc Ben Mottleson, Alan Kovar, Ken Scott, and Bill Wilson. This is a fairly experienced group of debaters. Ben Mottlef son, however, is Mr. Deabler's outstanding debateir and should be given special credit. Because of the war, gas rationing, etc., the sched' ule for the debates has been greatly curtailed, and the debaters had to drop out of some of the leagues, tournaments, etc. One of the leagues they continf ued to stay in was the Metropolitan League. There are thirteen schools in this league, and so far Lyons Township is in first place. Some of the other tournaments that were entered were the Elgin Tournament, January 8, La Port, Indiana, January 22, and the District Debate Tournament sometime in March.

FI'KEM Under the able leadership of Bill Deeming, presidentg Harry Staples, vicefpresidentg Jack Potts, secretaryg and Judy Ruminer, treasurer, FifKem has completed another year of fun and knowledge for Bl Tee's scientists. This is a club, not a class and is open to anyone with any interest whatsoever in chemistry and physics. Studes try their luck with experiments in chemistry for the first part of the year and graduate into physics at the end of the year. Meetings are made interesting by films on things of inf terest to the whole club and often an outside speaker is invited in to teach the club a thing or two. We can't neglect saying that the club is sponsored by such able men as Mr. Nelson and Mr. Thompson. ' WESTINGHOUSE AWARDS Last year La Grange had the honor of having john Krumf mell win an honorable mention in the Westinghouse Science Talent Search contestg but this year four students from L. T. H, S. won awards in the contest. Ralph Butz, Lasca Ann Hospers, and Janet Nauman were three out of 260 pupils who won honorable mentions in this conf test while Ben Mottleson was one of the forty chosen to attend the Science Talent Institute from March 3 to 7 and compete for 511,000 in scholarships. The winning of this honor by four pupils of L.T.H.S. shows conclusively that we have one of the best science departments in the United States. Row 1 - M. Merrick. Mr. Thompson, Mr. Nelson, R, Smith.

CAMERA CLUB This year's Camera Club was ably directed by Joe Froh, president, Bob Drew, vicefpresidentg Bob Tree, secretaryftreasurer. Mr. Davis was the sponf sor offering great encouragement to photographers. The club maintained a dark room and sponsored a spring salon. Activity was hampered by the shortage of photographic materials. BIOLOGY CLUB On the third Tuesday of any month, a group of mad but happy biologists can be found doing quite a number of different things such as watching dissecf tions, or dissecting animals of all kinds themselves, watching movies or listening to a speaker. When the weather permits, the club takes long hikes and field trips. These meetings usually feaf ture a treasure hunt for all sorts of impossible inf sects, worms, beetles, leaves, etc., and a game of baseball. And last but not least, enough good food for all. This year the club spent some of its time doing Red Cross work. Lap boards for the convalescent sol' dier were made. These boards are made of a com' position material that is painted on one side as a checker board and has a water proof, transparent cover. These lap boards are used for trays as well as for game boards.

This isn't all that the members of this upfandfcoming organization do. They occasionally have speakers as do other clubs.

Every Wednesday after school the patriotic studes of War Commission go roaring into Mr. Deabler's room. It develops that there aren't enough people and one person has to do the work of three. Have you ever tried to look at an order blank, separate stamps that are determined to stick together, and check to see that you have the right number while you're stuffing various paraphernalia into a folder? The result is usually a crossfeyed candidate for a gigglefhouse. To raise money, War Commission sponsored a dog show, several drives, and a dance. All these events were successful. The president is janet Nothhelfer and the group is ably sponsored by Mr. Deabler, Mr, Warkow, Miss Banks, Miss Aucutt, and Miss jordan. Row 1-I. Nothhelfer, J. Gammie, N. Guy, I. Bieler, Zavodney, C.

There are no regular dues, but there is usually a small meeting fee fto help pay for refreshments, ete.j The club is governed by a board, The members of this board are: janet Nothhelfer, president, jane Gammie, vicefpresidentg Courtney Coolidge, secretary, Rae Ann Ernster, treasurer, Grace Cooley, program chairman, Sally Custer, big and little sister chairman, and members of the board jean Bieler, Kay Simpson, Peggy Elg and Mary Chatten. One of the main things of Girls' Club is the Big and Little Sister work and party. In the spring, the junior and senior girls, who are interested, sign up to be big sisters to the freshmen girls Coming in to L.T.H.S. in the fall. These big sisters help get the girls acquainted, show them the school, and go with them in the fall to register and get their books. The first week of school, a Big and Little Sister Party is given. A program is put on in the auditorium and then everyone goes down to the cafeteria where refreshments are served. The Girls' Club meetings are very interesting and have programs for the interest and problems of high school girls. This year instead of the regular monthly meetings, they have had a series of per' sonal charm and effectiveness. These included personality, vocations, and charm. These meetings have all been very well attended. The Girls' Club has been very active in working for the Red Cross in cooperation with the War Commission. Girls' Club also sponsors a dance, which was given this year in March. Each year in the spring the Girls' Club of L.T.H.S. joins with the Girls' Clubs of other schools for a conference. There are about thirty other schools in this conference, and usually about four hundred girls attend. This year the conference was held at Highland Park. Row 1-A. Kubik, B. Duffy, M. Dikke, M.

The school gives a vote of thanks to Mrs. Murf phey and her club members, who made posters for all the plays, shows, and athletic contests. In March, this popular club sponsored an Art Exhibit. Some of the works were done by Mrs. Murphey's studes, and many of them were conf tributed by the La Grange Art League. Ten of Mrs. Murphey's original water colors of flower subjects were given as door prizes. The money collected at this event was used to purchase war bonds. Henderson, P. Elg. Mandel, Nauman. Brown.

Now, don't get the impression that O.E.O. is a quiet little society of deep and technical think' ers. Its requirements are that members make the honor roll on one semester each year. This year, it boasted of a membership of over 130 girls. Under its new sponsor, Mrs. McClelland, and its officcrsf-janet Cadmus, president, june Pollock, vicefprcsidentg Mary Chatten, secretary, and Rae Ann Ernster, treasurer, it had a busy and success' ful year. According to tradition, the annual formal initiation and candle light ceremony was the feature meeting of the year. Scholarship, character, leadership, and service, the ideals for which the club stands, are symbolized in the impressive service. Other meetings included talks on nursing, the theater, Red Cross, and other topics. OFFICERS: Rae Ann Ernster, June Pollock. Mrs. McClel' land. Mary Chatten, janet Cadmus. Top picture-Row 1- P.

After the Freshmen put on their program, the Sophomores strived to plan a better meeting for the next month. This type of competition resulted in excellent programs for the meetings. One meeting in particular was full of entertaining affairs. First a play called The Tune the Sales' man Played was given. After that an amateur hour was arranged for the members. Row 1-J. Wagner, L.

The band and the freshman girls chorus were under the direction of Mr. Hansen, while Mr. Dissinger waved his baton over the other groups. Together, they all presented the Christ' mas concert, the spring concert, and participated in several assemblies. The exchange assembly which they presented at Riverside was received with def light by the audience. The band, joined by the twirlers, frequently performed between halves at football and basketball games. Hats off to these hardworking people who have brought so much pleasure to El Tee audiences!

However, since it's only for upperclassmen, you freshies and sophs will have to wait a year or so. With Virginia White as president and Mr. Ken' nedy as sponsor, Playmakers spent a very profitable year. Under a new system, members divided into several groupsfstage crew, which later branched out on its own, writers, makefup crew, usherettes, and so on. Each did its part in making this year's productions the best yet. Though most of its work was done outside of meetings, the club had several line programs, inf cluding an original Christmas play written by one of the members, and another play written at the May meeting.

In The Torchhearersf' a satire by George Kelly, the Class of '44 gave a performance which was praised by the many who filled the auditorium on N. Huehscli. C, Coolidge the two nights it was played. The plot tells the story of what goes on at rehearsals and what takes place hack stage when a play is heing presented to the public. It is a real peek into the inner work' ings of the little theatre which should satisfy anyf one's curiosity about such things, Ahly directed by Mr. Kennedy, the actors and actresses did an excellent job of enlightening the unf initiated into the frantic moments encountered hack stage.

The Junior Play, The Fighting Littles, was pref sented January 28 in the high school auditorium, Much new talent was forthcoming and if members of the same cast are in the Senior play of '45, there will be no doubt of its success. Gwen Hawes and jack Preble in the lead roles gave equally impressive performances. The plot een' tered around two teenfage youngsters and their family troubles. Hilleary Moore as their father thought hc could find the best candidate for his daughters affections, and being the type of person who thinks love should begin at a Sunday school picnic, was a source of many tights. Ida Anthony, complete with a southern drawl, served to complicate the situation as the daughters visiting roomfmatc. After several tense moments, as well as many hilarious ones, the father found out that he was wrong about choosing his daughters friends and was big enough to admit it. Thus the play ended on a happy note. Director Mr. Youngblood contributed greatly to the success of the play. Thanks also go to Technical director, Mr. Kennedy, and the stage and makefup crews.

Yes, undefeated and untied throughout a tough nine game schedule, the 1943 conquering Lions not only added six consecutive wins to gain their third straight West Suburban Conference Heavyweight Championship for La Grange, but also took three nonfeonference opponents in stride. Starting otf the season with material only skinf deep in most spots because of the graduation of fifteen lettermen from last year's championship eleven, Coach Charles H. Chuck Bennett, with the able assistance of Coaches Rock Myers and Greg Sloan, molded a team which began its vicf torious march by shutting out a weak Mooseheart eleven in prefseason competition, l3f0. Gunning for their Hrst victory over the Proviso Pirates in their last three seasonal encounters, the Lions turned the trick with a revengeful l8fO white' wash. 98 Hurdling the nrst obstacle in their path to a third straight conference championship was sucf cessfully accomplished when Bennetts boys overf whelmed the Dukes of York, 2845. With Captain Art Sandusky scoring all three touchdowns, an overfconfident La Grange eleven came back after a first half slump to spring an 1843 win on the Bards. Thoroughly recovered from their overfconfident attitude and evident case of jitters of the week before, the Blue and Gold turned a hardfgained 7fO halftime lead into a 4010 rout of the stubborn Red Devils, on a Hinsdale field penetrated by an unusually warm fall sunshine, Forced to come from behind for the first time in all the gridiron tussles they had played and won so far, the inspired Lions, nevertheless, roared on to check the elusive Highland Parkers, l2f6, as Art Sandusky countered both La Grange markers. Constantly battling to keep their conference rec' ord clean, the Golden Boys next journeyed to Downers Grove, where they battered the highlyf touted, so far undefeated Trojan eleven, 34-6. Those six points were the first to cross a La Grange goal line in a conference game since the York game of the 1941 season. They came in the last minute of play with a whole crew of subs battling for the Lion's cause. The tough Riverside Bulldogs provided the oppof sition on the sunny Saturday of October 30 when the team clinched their third successive W. S. C. title with a decisive 2OfO victory. Playing their usual topfflight game of football on Homecoming Day on an Emmond Field so mudf dy and so rainfsoaked that the players were scarce' ly recognizable at the end of the contest, the chamf pion Lions added the Maine Demons to their long list of victims by a l9fO verdict. This game concluded a most victorious season, one in which the Lions demonstrated their ability to master all opponents, conference and nonfconf ference, Our boys achieved victory with a fight' ing spirit, typified by their own afterfgame, locker room rendition of Pistol Packin' Mama. Certainly every student at L.T.H.S. can and should be proud of their marvelous record, one which will stand as a mark for all El Tee football teams of the future to duplicate.

LIGHTWEIG HT FOOTBALL With a record of two wins, one tie, and three losses, Coach Cretcher's Cubs ended the season in fourth place. This record brought the Cubs closer to the top, since they held undisputed possession of the cellar last year. It was undoubtedly an imf proved football aggregation over last ycar's impotent eleven. Facing an older, heavier, more experienced York squad, the Cuhs dropped their Hrst conference game to the Barons on Emmond Field, ZS to 6. Highlight of the rout, froin the standpoint of La Grange fans, was Buddy Johnsons beautiful 9ifyard touchdown jaunt after hc had intercepted a York pass on his own ifyard line. By recovering a Cub fumhle on their own 42f yard stripe, Glcnbard dealt La Grange its second 102 straight conference loss, 7 to O, when Roll heaved a pass complete to Iden. Later, however, the Bardlets had to forfeit this game to the Cubs, be' cause an ineligible man was playing for them at the time. It was not a clear defeat for the Cubs any' way, for Tommy Ludwig was on the Green and White's oncfyard line when time ran out. The Cubs recovered sufficiently from their two straight defeats to vanquish Hinsdale's imps I2 to 6 on the latterls own field. All the scoring was done in the first period. The first touchdown resulted from Tom Ludwig's pass to Ralph Rohinett, who then ran over 35 yards to pay dirt. La Grange then kicked off to Hinsdale, whereupon the Imp's Palmer immediately ran the hall the length of the field for a touchdown. The second Cuh score came on Buddy Johnsons Vlfyard offftackle smash. Downers completely slaughtered the Cubs in the next encounter, 20 to O. Although the La Grange backs made some large gains in the latter part of the game, they often found themselves with no protection whatsoever in the way of blocking and tackling. On several occasions, when Buddy Johnson tried to run end, hc found himself face to face with three or four opposing tacklers before he reached the line of scrimmage. Although they were only trailing by one point at the half, the Cubs finally succumbed to the powerful RB. attack and dropped their third conference game, 27 to 6, largely be' cause of injuries to Al Wrisley, Dutch Hart' mann, and Lee Ray early in the third quarter. Playing their last and best game of the year, Coach Cretcher's Cubs came up with a score' less tie against highlyftouted Maine. Only for lack of enough punch at critical moments did the Cubs fail to score. Early in the first quarter, they drove to the Maine twelve, in the second quarter, to the Maine 22, and in the fourth quarter, to the Maine five. How' ever, the most provoking attempt that failed left the Cubs on the Maine three when time ran out. Ourb! Leggo my leg! Make that point! Glen Borton and Bob Meeks proved the defensive stars while Buddy johnson, Tom Ludwig, Hughie Koehlinger, Ralph Robinett, Owen Pollock, and Herby Keil carried the offensive burden, Johnson and Koehlinger combined to do all the necessary kicking.

F ROSH'SOPH FOOTBALL From the excellent showing of this yearis froshf soph eleven, one may predict that La Grange will continue to reign supreme in foothall in its own conf ference for at least the next few years. Under the coaching of Rock Myers, Greg Sloan, and Chuck Bennett, the Lionets won three victories, suffered one loss, and gained one tie. Under the lights at Proviso, the El Tee froshf soph handed the strong pirate eleven a 12 to 6 set' hack. jack Prather plunged for the first touchdown, Marvin Wzilliier snared Don Novotny's pass on the 27 and shook off no less than three Proviso tacklers in scoring the second. The Lionets next gained a scoreless tie from Highland Park in a contest which featured a punting duel between our own Mzirx' Wzilliier and the Parkers' Bud Jones. 10 In a return engagement with Proviso on the home field, La Granges froshfsoph eleven suffered a 6 to O shut out. Johnny Sahan and Bob Nlanning sparked the Lionets' defensive stand. The Lionets avenged this loss hy unloosing their wrath on the Downers Grove undcrclassmen, 33 to o, Pete Gervase, hehind Jesse Gilhert's exceptional' ly Hne hloeking, returned a Downer's kickfoff 107 yards for the hest of the many touchdown runs made that day. The last Lionet victim was West Aurora, 13 to 6. A pass from Don Novotny to Frank Kennedy clinched the first touchdown. Since there were no suhstitute tackles, Gene Childress and Mike Micliel had to play the whole game. HEAVYWEIG HT BASKETBALL Greg Sloan, a new addition to the athletic staff, took over the coaching of the heavyweight basketf ball squad this year. Coach Sloan came here from Pittsfield, Illinois, where he produced championf ship cage teams that won the Illinois Valley conf ference four straight years. As soon as he came here, Mr. Sloan found he had to build a team almost from scratch. At first little experienced material was available beyond five boys, with varsity or lightweight experience: Jim Edwards, Bill Uecker, George Sundheim, Bob Abrahams, and Buddy Johnson. Vvfith only froshfsoph training, Bill Holloway and Bill Allinson joined the heavyf weight forces. Bob Simon, -lack Prather, and Bob Rettig contributed their share, the latter two com' ing along from this yearis froshfsoph team. Missiiig from the lineup were George Mason and Art Sanf dusky, both drafted before the season started. With these ten boys, Coach Sloan formed the nucleus of the Lion team that completed an eighteen game schedule with five wins and seven losses in conference play and three wins and three losses against nonfconference opponents. George Sundheim, Bill Allinson and Bill Hollof - Fr 4 5 way tied for scoring honors throughout the season. Captain Jim Edwards' cool head and calm attitude contributed much in holding the team together at critical moments. Bill Uecker's defensive and oifen' sive rebounding prevented many an opposing player from scoring. In the season opener at Dundee, a nonfconference tuneup, the Lions received a 4862 setback. How' ever, in its second nonfconference game at Orland Park, all the boys participated fully in blasting a weak Orland Park live, 7432. With a whirlwind finish, the fighting Lions snatched the conference opener, played in Des' plaines, from the Mzriiie Demons when bill Hollof Row lgbl. Edwards, B. Abrahams. D. Krug. B. Rcttig.

Two over' times were needed to gain the victory, because a mixup had taken place in the La Grange scorekeeper's book, pref venting the ofiicial record of a 3009 win in regular time for the Lions. Jim Edwards scored the winning basket on a beautiful underfthefbasket shot after dribbling past both Riverside guards. A last half rally netted York a 3783 triumph over the Sloanmen in the next contest as Bill Allison and George Sundheim each collected ten points. Top- B. Ueeker, B, Holloway Bottom- G. Sundheim. B. Allinson Centerfl. Edwards way tied the score at 2727 on a onefhand push shot in the last five seconds of play to enable the home team to take the game in over' time, 2928, on free throws by George Sundheim and Bill Uecker. The Blue and Gold next took the measure of Harper, a nonfconf ference opponent from Chicago, 3023. Incidentally, this is the same team-fthe same players, toofthat South Shore overpowered il to 37 to take the Chicago championship and go on to place third in the state finals. Hinsdales champion Devils invaded the Lions' lair on December 10 and departed with a 31 to 24 victory, despite the fact that the Lions received the enthusiastic support of a large crowd. Next Dundee came here to play a return engagement and pocketed its second victory over the Lions, 38 to 30. The Hilltnppers' home floor served as the scene of the next Lion defeat, as the championshipfbound Bards, led by their tall, lanky center, Itch Merlin, pulled away in the second half to a 35 to 23 triumph. Resuming play after the holidays, the team journeyed to Downers, where they had to be content with a 2lf8 rout. Poor officiating that allowed rough play, accounted in a large measure for the defeat. George Sundheim dropped in six of the eight points for the Gold and Blue. 106 R. Johnson. B. Ahrahams, B. Simon As sweet revenge for the Lions' one point win over them in the first encounter of the season, Maine came here on Friday, january 21, to set hack the Lions in the first game of the second round, 4284. A powerful fivefman defense and an aggressive Lion team, disf gusted over the defeat the night hefore, pulled a 30 to 27 upset on Saturday, january 22, over the powerful Devil five, in a Hinsdale gym filled to overflowing with shouting fans. This defeat thoroughly blasted Hinsdale's hopes for the heavyweight haskethall conference crown. After upsetting one of the contenders for the conference crown, the Lions thought they might do it to the others, hut in a close game the failure to make fifteen free throws and forty attempted iield goals cost the Sloanmen a 33 to 18 decision against the Glenhard champs. When the last place Downers team came here on Fehruary 8, our varsity were gunning for sweet revenge in return for that 21 to 8 licking Downers had administered them. They nipped the Trojans, 34 to 29, thus gaining the revenge. Although they only held a five point lead at the end of the third quarter, a tall Riverside quintet took advantage of the small R.-B. gym and rebounded to a revenge victory, 3923. In the last conference contest the Lions toppled York, 43 to 40, to tie York and Riverside for third place in the West Suhurhan conf ference with a record of five wins and seven losses hchind Hinsdale's Devils and the Glenhard champs. In preparation for the Glenhard regional tourney, the Lions played Kankakee thcrc. Vvlith hoth ,Tim Edwards and Bill Holloway, starting guards, out of the lineup because of illness, the Sloanmen suffered a 5185 defeat at the hands of Kankakee. NVith a harrage of haskets which put them out ahead 2910 at halftime, the Glenhard hotshots went on to end our chances in the regional tourney, 4147. All the Vx7est Suhurhan conference teams were eliminated from any chance at going to the state tournament in the regionals, Glenhard losing its own regional to a tough Proviso quintet, 3432.

When the lightweights started the season, most fans figured, Well, this is just another one of those cellar-bound lightweight basketball teams that La Grange has had for three years now. But the lights this year proved to be a different five and once more they climbed out of the cellar. In fact, they even played .300 ball--better than the heavies did. They managed to knock off some of the best teams in the conference, and could well be named the giant killers. Perhaps it was the new coach in the form of uBuckets Bennett, Perhaps it was the spirit, the scrappiness, the fight of the team, or a combination of both. But whatever it was, the Cubs deserve a vote of thanks from El Tee students for breaking that 'kcellar jinxf' The Cubs started the season otl impressively by nosing out a tough Maine quintet, 29 to 27, Gene Koehlinger with nine and Tom Ludwig with seven points, led the Cub attack in a rough game which saw Tom Ludwig, Bob Jordan, and Milt Johnson ejected via the foul route. Hinsdale's Imps proved too much for our Cubs as they ran away to the tune of 32 to l9 after hold' ing only a one point lead at halftime. The defend' ing champs looked impressive, especially one by the name of Dave Breshnahan who dropped in fifteen points to help the Imp cause. Bill Denning, Glenbard center, sparked his mates to a lucky 26 to 25 victory by meshing two pivot shots with a minute to go. It was a tough one for the Cubs to lose. Dick Simon gathered ten points followed by Hughie Koehlinger with nine. After vacation, the lights journeyed to Downers, but were turned back by the tall Trojan champs, 2824, a.s Tom Ludwig collected eleven points and Dick Simon nine. The Cubs decided that it was about time that they let everybody know they were of championship caliber. lt was with this thought in mind that the Cubs unleashed their wrath on the tough Riverside Bullpups to the tune of 32 to 20. Team play and a coordinated attack, brought the second Cub victory in five starts as Milt johnson gathered nine points, Hughie Koehlinger, eight, Dick Simon, six, Tom Ludwig, four, and Bob jordan, three, The Cubs next journeyed to York in hopes of taking an easy victory, but the Barons turned them back 22 to ll, as Bob Jordan collected seven points. Coach Bennetts hunch again unleashed its smothering attack. This time Maine's last place quintet was the victim, 37 to 18. Milt Johnson with nine points and Tom Ludwig with seven led Cub scorers. The next night the Cuhs traveled to Hinsdale, where they exacted sweet revenge for an earlier defeat. It was a thrilling contest, close all the way, and finally ended 39 to Ri, Simon with thirteen points and Ludwig with eleven led the Cuhs to victory. ln revenge for a previous one point loss to the Bardlets, the Cuhs trounced them 34 to 21. High light of the game was Milt Johnsons shooting exf hihition as he dropped seven swishers through the hoop in less than three quarters. Tom Ludwig followed Johnson with twelve points. Now well on their way to the lightweight conf ference crown, the Trojan ponies came here and out rebounded the Cuhs in gaining a hardfearned 27 to 24 victory. The R.'B. Bullpups took complete control of their dinky floor and eventually scored a 32 to 24 ref venge triumph. In the last game of the season, the Cuhs took the measure of the York lights and completely outf pointed the Yorkites, 39 to 22. Milt Johnson dropped in fourteen points, Hughie Koehlinger, seven, and Tom Ludwig, six. When the totals were added, it was found that the Cubs had the most potent scoring machine in the circuit. In actual points, our sharpfshooting cagers amassed 345 points as compared with the 313 points of the York and R.fB. quintets, next in the line of offensive power. T. Ludwig. lvl johnson.

Koelilinger FROSH'SOPH After winding up a vietorious season with seven wins and three losses, the E1 Tee froshfsoph basf keteers journeyed to Downers Grove and eapped off the season by taking a fourfteam froshfsoph basket' ball tourney. Hinsdale, Downers Grove, Riverside, and La Grange participated. ln the initial round of the tourney, our froshfsoph eomposed of Jack Prather, Leon Krug, Bob Rettig, Bob jordan, Diek Simon, Joe Sammons, Diek lviason, and Bob Kelso, took eare of the R.fB. live, 31 to 28. Then, in the final, Hinsdale, the team that had eliminated Downers Grove, was nosed out by La Grange, 30 to 29, A late Devil rally, with Prather, Krug, and BASKETBALL Simon out on live fouls, failed to tie the seore. During the season there was an encouraging sign that basketball will improve markedly at E1 Tee in the next few years, beeause the Lionets always took their eonferenee opponents. In two games they nipped Glenbard in the first, 23 to 21, and smashed the same Bardlets in the seeond, 32 to 21, and York, 22 to 17, and overwhelmed Hinsdale, 41 to 32. Other opponents they defeated were Qrland Park, 26 to 3, and Kankakee, 32 to 27. However, our Lionets lost two elose ones to Dundee, 19 to 16 and 27 to 26, and one to Harper High, 23 to 15.

In fact, speed demon Lahey placed first and set a new conferf ence record of 9:-18.2, shaving 28.6 seconds from the former record of 101168, set hy Pearce of Miriiie in 1937. This year a new mentor, Greg Sloan, was to he found at the helm, guiding the fortunes of the cross country team. He came here from Pittsfield, Illinois, where his track teams won the Pike county championf ships three out of four years against fifteen other schools as large as or larger than Pittsfield. Although each school may run as many as fifteen men in the conference meet, only the first five places count in determining the team winner. Behind Lahey. Hank Gilhert placed fourth: -lohn La Rue, sixteenth: Ray Ondrick, eighteenth: and Art Stuenkel, twentyftifth to determine La Grange's first five places. Behind Mziiiie and La Grange, Riverside, York, Downers Grove, and Hinsdale finished in that order. Glenhard failed to compete. In preparing for the conference meet, La Grange entered the Proviso Invitational meet. Out of the many hoys taking part, Hank Gilhert led La Grange's effort hy finishing third. Although prohahly the least puhlicized of any sport, cross country huilds strength, endurance, wind, stride, and a sense of timing that all help in preparing these runners for track in the spring. For not only do such hoys as Bill Lahey, Hank Gilhert, John La Rue. Ray Undrick, and Art Stuenkel participate in cross country, they also form the nucleus of middle and long distance runners on our track team. 111 r , l WRESTLING Under the tutelage of Coach r'Rock' Myers, the wrestlers worked hard and competed in fourteen meets this year.

There are many good runners on the team, which will he strengthened greatly hy juniors who moved up from last year's champion freshmanfsophomorc team. Early in the season the team held a practice session at the Oak Park field house. There they had access to facilities which La Grange does not have. In this practice, Lahey and Gilhert ran a 4:49 mile, Ondrick, a 2:07 halffmileg Sammons, a 5,5 second fiftyfyard dash, and Vsfilson, a 7,4 second sixtyfyard hurdle race. The hoys had just one practice at the field house hefore the Oak Park relays, and thus garnered only eleventh place when they cornered six points. ln this meet, Dick Brown, a senior, took fourth place in the broad jump: Lahey, a junior, took third place in the mile run, and Hank Gilbert, another junior, took fifth place in the mile run.

The cause of this eouldn't he their snappy L sweaters and white outnts, could it? At present, only Seniors are elif gihle, hut in the future eligihility may he extended to the Juniors. To qualify for memhership, the girls must excel in leadership and athletic ability. Each girl attends a gym class every day and assists in that class. Their duties are to help Miss BerBerick and Miss Lewis with all activities. i Even though this is a new organization, if the I coming Juniors and Seniors continue to show such an interest, we are certain that this cluh will mellow with age.

I G. A. A. When a girl helongs to G. A. A., an outsider instantly regards her as a tomhoy. This is really an injustice to the girls and the cluh. The club is really an organization that makes it possihle for girls to participate in a wide field of after school sports. In order to join G. A. A., the girl must earn a certain numher of points. At the end of the year, a picnic is held and the girls with the highest numher of paints are presented awards. Interesting meetings are held monthly and there is always unique entertainment. The club is sponsored hy Miss BerBerick and Miss Lewis, Its officers this year are Lois Kemman, presidentg Virginia Smart, vicefpresident: Helen Schmidt, secretary, and Helen Loomis, treasurer. Riding This year, the popularity of this activity dwindled hecause the transportation to the stables was uncertain. The coesport heads Marilyn Vxfilhelm and Ruth Hadralaa managed however to dig up a few enthusiasts, who made the weekly trip to Rohin Hood Stahles. Leaders 1 Miss Lewis. man. S.

Bell' Hockey Ouch, that hurt! was the common expression during the hockey season, The referees didn't know if it was a game of skill or a survival of the Httest. Kay Quinlan, sportfhead, managed to lure a numher of girls out every night with those multi' Colored pinnies. The mainstays of the teams were, as usual, Ginny Smert, Lois Bellman, Kemmy, and Sylvia Sward. Volleyball Volleyhall is the answer if you've wondered where those rough, red hands come from. Under Jean Utto's supervision, these girls had a whaekin' good time.

Well, this isn't true of the girls who turned out for Burhls swell swim' ming classes. Every week the girls journey to the 20th Century Cluh in Oak Park. The trip itself is looked forward to with glee, for what is full of more excitement than a group of girls off to have fun! junior and Senior Life Saving Courses were offered along with Advanced Swimming and Diving. Burh will admit that the girls, under Roberta Mandel's lead, did give her her share of ducking. Some steady customers were Lois Bellman, Jean Miller, Dorothy Brodie, June St. Germain, and Virginia Smart. Bicycling Bicycling was added to the activities list this fall at the request of many of the girls. This is heartily recommended for those who see themselves walking hither and yon in the future. The interesting part of this is the picnic lunch, or you should say the hattle to see who ends up with the smeariest face. After the weary trek home, the girls drag them' selves to Vann's or Rodgers for that refresh' ing coke. Archery Nancy Leidtke and her future Rohin Hoods and Williztm Tells scored many a hulls eye this season and who knows some may turn out to he Dan Cupid! Even though the gals had no special tournament, this didn't stop them from practicing for the future, Baseball L'Strike three, youire out. That's one exf pression you don't hear after you've attended one of Burh and Donnie's hasehall sessions. Those tall seniors. Can they run! Those are the expressions of the envious underelassf men. Definite teams weren't formed hut this didnit drown the competitive spirit that was in the air. Dynamic Alice Kuhik, as usual, had a moh out every night, and each brought out that do or die for old El Tee Hi spirit. Second row from topfL. Kohout, G, McCoy. R. Craig, H. Schmidt, K. Quinlan. A.

Above: Bicycle:-s Dancing If you were wondering what those girls who carried tap shoes down to the gym each night were doing, they were only secretly practicing to be able to dance as the famous Rockettcs do. These girls have delighted many asf semblies and we owe all this to Malrilyii Wilf helm for her pep talks that brought these beauties out each night. Tennis The gang that came out for tennis this year slowly dwindled down to a few of the real enthusiasts. Even with all veteran sport head, Carolyn Bluhms, urging, only a few showed up. Practices are held at Gilbert and eventual' ly they have a ladder tournament. That is, you played the person ahead of you and if you won, you took her place, etc. Tumbling This year most of the credit goes to the underclassmen for their ine spirit in coming out each Monday night. Tumbling was started a little late this season, but wc're quite sure that if the girls would show up each week that Donnie would be able to produce another nchampu team. The old standbys, Ruth Craig and Audrey Norvell, are out each week, so if you freshies and sophs don't know what a fish hawk dive and doing the stick are, just ask them. Bottom picture-Softball G.
