H. S. When the class reached the senior year there were but sixty-four remaining to receive their diplomas. As freshmen we were, at first, a little frightened and looked upon the upper classmen as our idols. At the end of our sophomore year, however, we began to realize that now we were at last ready to pledge ourselves as upper classmen. The officers chosen to lead that year were: President-----------------Richard Dickason Vice President----------------------Richard James Secretary------------------------------Joan Coplan Treasurer----------------Russel Van Hooser The Junior-Senior Prom was the outstanding event of the year. “Down Memory Lane” was used as the theme, in honor of the departing seniors. The ballroom was decorated beautifully and a good time was had by all. Mary Bushnell and Richard James reigned as King and Queen at the Homecoming dance. Dorothy Arnold was chosen as the winner of the D. A. R. award. The prom again was an outstanding event. Thanks to you, juniors, it was really swell. Baccalureate and Commencement has arrived! How proud we are in our caps and gowns! But oh how fast these years have gone. It has made us realize how much high school has meant and what it will mean in the future.

That bare empty locker, brought back all the times I’d stuffed it with pencils and pens. And papers and books, and gym clothes and coats, A hundred and one odds and ends. I’d rememberd the times I had fought with the door In a hurry to get on to class But now I was sorry I never had known How swiftly I’d let the days pass. At last much too late, I could only remember Those parties, those dances, the prom, All the fellas and girls, all the ball games and plays, And taking report cards home to mom. Each Homecoming bonfire, the game and the dance. With everyone happy and gay. The chats in the halls, with a group of good friends. The small things that happen each day. The naps caught in English, or some other class, The assemblies, the dancing at noon. The hours in gym class and practicing plays All are gone with the past and too soon. As I stood in the hall I suddenly found That my thoughts had made me grow sad. That I hated to leave those four years behind, That I’d loved them the good and the bad. It’s true that we all feel a little unhappy At the end of four high school years But they’re mixed up together, both gladness and sadness. With a sprinkle of last minutes tears. Ahead in the future in some old dresser drawer, We will find a dusty old book Where we’d long ago laid it, with an old orange M Or medals for honors we took. And we’ll pull out the book and the medals and M And say to a daughter or son, “Now this was my class of the year forty-nine, And these are the honors I won.” The daughter or son may laugh at the pictures In the yellow old Spider Web’s pages But that story’s not new, it has happened before And will happen again through the ages. Crystal Gazing One of the representatives of the Senior Class reached into the Surprise Package of 1949 and believe it or not he found a crystal ball. The class looked into the crystal ball and then they found the following prophecies. Dottie Arnold, you remember her name, is now head coach at Notre Dame. Jeanne Arnold, an active member of G. A. A., is now trying to teach children how to play. Kenneth Barth ran a hamburger stand until the meat grinder ground up his hand. Bonnie Blevins lives in a shoe, she had to move when her rent came due.

Glenn Hendrickson is now a cook, trying to give food the new look. Susan Hoyle has a beautiful voice, when she sings people rejoice. Gene Hursh is now acting on Broadway, they say he’s the biggest ham that was ever in a play. Kathleen Jackson is now a great nurse, her patients are going from bad to worse. A huge dog kennel has Georgia James, she sits all day and dreams up dog names. A delightful fellow is Bud James, thinking up some new kissing games. A radical democrat was Louise John, now to the Republican party she has gone. An unhappy girl is Joyce Kirch, she was left standing at the church. Marilyn Kirkpatrick is a happy girl, giving boys the permanent curl. A wealthy man is Wendell Kline, gayly surrounded by women and wine. You remember that little fellow Jack Kugler, in the Army he is now a bugler. Joan Lewis had freckles galore, she discovered a cream and doesn’t have them any more. A set of false teeth wears poor Jack Little, he broke his off eating peanut brittle. Paul Luttrell swallowed a radio set, you can tune him in when his tubes am’t wet. A well known burglar is Roderick Mason, be lawful it might be your joint he’s casin’. Richard McNeeley is in New York City, writing up stories quite clever and witty.

The Bombers, playing a good first half, lost fire the second half and were beaten 33-6 by Monmouth. Homecoming furnished the fire needed to get the Bombers rolling as they whacked Havana, 26-14. The Little Giants proving too fast and big as they downed the Orange and Black, 19-0. Scoring against the third team, Bushnell got their only score, while the Bombers won 26-6.

This year’s team competed in the Mid-West Conference track meet, Fort Madison Relays, County track meet, and District Track Meet. One weakness this year was depth of squad.

Juniors—Leroy Daniels, Jack Silberer, Bud Statler and Bob Zimmerman. Freshmen—Mervin Cale, Bob Higgins, Bill McCants, Don McDaniels, Gene Rittenhouse, and Bob Zerkle. The track team was coached by Martin Haseltine. Sophomores Jack Dunsworth Jim Hartley Bill Setser BASEBALL New uniforms and a win over Quincy High School for the first time in years highlighted the baseball season of 1949 for the Bombers. The Bombers baseball team was one of the schools best baseball teams, sparked by the brilliant pitching of right hander, Marion Stoneking. The Bombers were led by Wendell Hill serving his first year as M.H.S. baseball coach who did a commendable job. The pitching staff included Marion Stoneking, Charles King, Richard Louden, and Bill Statler. The infield was made up of Dick Underwood, first base: Joe Gilbert, second base: Jack Frakes, shortstop: Stan Slusher, third baseman. Bill McCants played first when Underwood caught. Playing the outfield was Silberer, Miller, Buchholz, Robinson, and Luttrell. Bud James did the catching along with Underwood. James also played the outfield. Volleyball This team won the GAA volleyball tournament. Volleyball is one of the sports enjoyed in our gym during cold weather. Archery During the spring of the year those girls who are interested can have archery. The school has some very nice archery equipment for this purpose. Softball The softball diamond, a short distance from the school is occupied during the spring of the year by the softball enthusiasts. Basketball The team opposite is the Senior Jets, winner of the basketball as well as the volleyball tournament. Basketball is played in cold weather when staying inside is necessary.

The four page publication was distributed third hour every other Thursday, sixteen times during the school year, including the annual bally-hoo issue on April Fool’s day and the eight page paper at commencement time. The staff also put on two radio programs over W K A 1 during the year. The paper was printed by the publishers of the McDonough County Times. Student Council Officers dick dickason President HICHAM) JAMES Vice-President LUCINDA LUTZ Secretary-Treasurcr Student Council radio program soon after the beginning of the first semester This year the Student Council has been quite active. During football season the Council made up programs and sold them at all but one of the home football games. At Homecoming members of the Council organized the parade and gave cash prizes to the winning float. Dick Dickason was the chairman. After football season the Student Council made up a student directory of which Phil Decker was chairman. Nine members attended the District convention at Galesburg and several members went to Chicago for the State convention. The Council also did a M” Association The “M” Association is an honorary club made up of all the letter winners in football, basketball, track, baseball, managers and cheerleaders. The first purpose of the club is to earn money to pay for injuries received while participating in a sport and raise a fund to purchase new sports equipment. The concession stand on the athletic field grounds was operated on numerous occasions to increase this fund.
