DEDICAOTION The Senior Class Dedicates the 1946 Retro to Miss Madeline Hatteberg For the past eight years, she has been a teacher at M. C. H. S. and a cheerful friend to all of us. We are grateful for her help, for the time she has devoted to us, and for her pleasant personality. H IST 0 RY MAnoMET COMMUNITY HIGH scnoor. The Mahomet Community High School, District 303, was organized in the September election of 1919. The grade school building was used until September, 1921, while the high school building was being constructed. The high school was not completed until 1922. The south wing of the building was to be the assembly, the upper part of the north wing was to be the gym, and the lower part of the north wing was to be a swimming pool. The boys were so badly in need of a place to practice basketball that the labor to put in the gym floor was donated. The stage was in the west end of the gymg the assembly was in the present picture room until the peach tree was removed from the center of the north wing and the auditorium and community 'room were finished in 1937. The principals of M. C. H. S. since its organization have been as follows: J. T. Dodsong E. M. Deemg P. F. Parrottg J. J. Miner: C. C. Ambroseg John K. Priceg W. C. Coeg E. V. Price, and Karl L. Massanari. The Community High School has continually been accredited with U. of I. and has been recognized by the State Department of Public Instruction. In 1925, it become accredited with the North Central Association of Col- leges and Secondary Schools and has maintained standards necessary for such accrediting since that time.

Class colors: Blue and Gold Class flower: Yellow Rose In the fall of 1942, thirty-four apprentice seamen crossed the gang plank into H. S. Entrance. Officers elected were Marilee Dean, presidentg Marilyn Dawkins, vice-presidentg Phyllis Carson, secretary-treasurer: and Lyle Primmer, reporter. The initiation party was held in their honor in September. They started the year out right by scrubbing the deck with tooth brushes. They had to go through the spats, roll marbles with their noses, make speeches, shine shoes, and carry canes or dolls. That day will surely be remembered by all. , The crew docked one evening and entertained the sophomore class with a scavenger hunt. As the first year progressed, the crew gained one member, Allen Junkert, but had eight casualties. Those we lost were Annabelle Brown, Billy Car- penter, Clarence Deener, Evelyn Endsley, Harry Grindley, Bud Hale, Charles Martin, and Wayne Whetzel. In the fall of 1943, new ratings. were issued. All members became sea- men, second class, and the officers were: Shirley Meredith, presidentg Peggy Shell, vice- president: Estal Hillman, secretary-treasurer, Marilyn Dawkins, reporterg and Phyllis Carson, historian. Jackie 'Posey was transferred and six more casualties diminished the crew. Eighteen experienced first class seamen were on deck in the fall of 1944, but three of these were later lost. The junior officers were: Ernest Moon, president: Estal Hillman, vice president, Roberta Rayburn, secretary-treasurerg Dolores Shell, re- porterg Rex Morfey, historiang and Ernest Moon, Norman Brown, Phyllis Carson, and Dolores Shell, student council members. In October, the crew's jewelry was ordered. On November 5, twelve of the crew presented the play, Double Exposure , directed by Mrs. Lovelass. On May 11, the entire ship's complement honored the seniors with a banquet held at the Urbana-Lincoln Hotel. The Mother Goose theme was used. The ship's company visited the University of Illinois campus and saw Romeo and Juliet in 1944 and King Lear in 1946 at Lincoln Hall. In the fall of 1946, the crew presented themselves for inspection to Com- mander Massanari. The senior officers were Jo-Anne Rayburn, president, Estal Hill- man, vice-presidentg Norman Brown, secretary-treasurer: Molly Shell, Roberta Rayburn and Peggy Shell, student council representatives. Molly Shell was elected president of the student body. Roberta Rayburn was chosen as the D. A. R. representative for Good Citizenship. The members of our class were well represented in all school activities. They were on the student council: Fingerprint staff, kittenball, basketball, and track teamsg bandg F. F. A., F. H. A.: and several of the girls were student librarians. One of our largest tasks was publishing the Retro, under the guidance of Mr. Massanari. Early in the spring the shipmates attended a dinner party at Shells. The Cannibal Queen , was presented April 12, by a cast of thirteen. The entire crew was guest of the juniors at a banquet at Hotel-Tilden Hall, May 10. Wishing to see something of dry land, the senior crew became adventurous and took a trip to Chicago. Earlier they sponsored V-Roy the Magician to raise mon- ey to make the trip possible. On May 27, 1946-20 bel-ls and the crew docks at Port Graduation for new orders. Having been well trained, this crew is to be divided, to be put on many dif- ferent ships. So long, Mates! Ship Ahoy-to whatever is just beyond the horizon. SERVICEMEN GRADUATES In the spring of 1946, Nile Ray, Harold Mahin, and Delbert Mahin passed the high school form of the General Educational Development Test. On the basis of these tests they were given diplomas and are considered graduates of the high school. Graduation on the basis of this test is recognized by the State Department of Educa- tion and the University of Illinois. Where Judgment has wit to express it, there is the best oratorf' .

You know of course that it is the thriving village where the class of '46 spent four very eventful years in M. C. H. S. Naturally. they all had their troubles, but the most common to them were the task of study- ing, and of course the flame of romance that at sometime or other blazed in each young heart. There were many incidents which brought joy to school days, parties, dances, basketball games, clubs, and class projects. Ah! There we are, Main Street! I see the Post Office has been painted re- cently, and there are a couple more stores at the east end, one sells dry-goods and the other, hardware. I see Don's Potato Chip factory still stands and what's that in front of it? Don seems to have increased his sales and uses large semi-trucks to transport his potato chips all over the country. Let's see what goes on inside the office. Look who's keeping the records in order! Roberta Rayburn! She seems to be preparing books for a delivery. There she goes out to the truck-it looks like she can handle any size vehicle, from the little Hudson coupe she herded around in '46 to a 10-ton semi- truck! As the scene changes, we see a farm east of town. The fields have all been planted and are now ready to be cultivated. The proud owners are the .former Peggy Shell and her husband, Hubert. Three years ago they were blessed with a blond baby boy and have plans for rearing a large family. Peggy is dressed in coveralls ready to help with the evening chores. She'll be back in the house soon, though, preparing the evening meal. Life runs very smoothly, down on the farm. About ten miles farther east, we come upon the city of Champaign. There seems to be a parade right down the middle of Neil street. A member of the class of '46 has top billing, Norman Brown, the fearless trainer in his own stpendous, colos- sal show. You'd be surprised to see the wonders he has accomplished with his group of trained fleas. Really folks, it's a circus and Tub always did make a good clown. We'll go on out on Church street now. Mmminmm-What's this? Mon- sieur Rex Morfey-Dancing. Good Heavens, it is! Rex Morfey, has put the graceful- ness he learned while playing basketball to so-me worthwhile use. He teaches ballet dancing on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, and keeps a day nursery on Tuesday and Thursday. He is doing all right too, for often he's seen driving a new 1955 Studebaker. You know Rex always did like children and nice cars. Here comes a Freezit Good ice truck tearing west on Route 150. As we glance in the cab of the truck, we see Jim Babb and his 5 year old son, James Babb Jr. Almost as fast as greased lightning, Jim speeds the Frazier truck toward home. But he isn't afraid of the Little Woman because he has just purchased a new pair of box- ing gloves for Junior. Now we come to Five Points. There, situated on the left-hand side of the road is a large, newly constructed building, with the sign- Where Coke Will Cut Your Crop For A Considerable Quantity Of Cash-Four-Bits! The barbering business must not be very prontable for in the back of the building Coke has a complete line of cram- shaft hoghouses which he recently perfected. And, of course, you've heard of Ken- neth Paul's Purebred Pigs which thrive on a specially prepared diet. Let's see if we can find some of the class of '46 in Chicago. Ruth Crow- ley comes into the light now. She has progressed in the business world. She is the private secretary to the famous Chicago lawyer, John Simmons. She will accept a new role soon though, that of Mrs. John Simmons. I'd say, our red-head of the class is doing fine. The' Ice-Cycles are now giving a show here in Chicago. That teacher at the University ice rink back in '46 must have made a great impression on Phyllis Car- son. She is the star of the great show now being given. She has a weakness for red hair and freckles though, and keeps her eye on that partner of hers. There's a great game being played at the Chicago Stadium. A rough and tough football game is about to be ended. A quick pass from center and the full back has the ball. Down the field, and a touchdown! The game is over. That last goal won the game for the Blustering Busters. Well did I ever! The hero of the game has taken off her helmet, and behold, Molly Shell, the athlete of the class. I thought she preferred basketball, but I guess that wasn't 'quite rough enough to suit her. At the 'Chicago University we find the bookkeeping teacher deeply engaged in helping a student with his assignment. Imight have known it. Dolores Shell! She used to do very well helping Rex Morfey in '46 and I see still likes blond curly hair the best,-even on someone else! During the summer months traveling occupies most of her time. Her main hobby is collecting souvenirs from all parts of the world. I have heard a few of the members of the class are making good in New York City. Lyle Primmer, we see is a prominent man-about-town. Just a New York businessman with pictures in all the papers and his name very often appears in the gos- sip columns. It seems that a rich relative left his millions to Lyle and he is making the best use of his fortune. Estal Hillman is in New York on a tour. He is a Hollywood talent scout and an expert on beautiful women. There i-s no such thing as a homely woman , says Estal, and in his many articles and artistic photographs, he proves his statement. As a hobby, Estal is giving competition to Walt Disney now with his cartoon charac- ters, the most famous of which is Dilly Hombre. We could tell by the pictures he drew in class that he enjoyed that type of work very much. Playing in Carnegie Hall tonight, we will find Jo-Anne Rayburn. She has her own symphony orchestra and does all her own arrangements. The new Concerto Dodging Alongu, in C-fiat Major will be played for the Hrst time. I'm sure it will make a big impression on the elite of New York society. We also hear that Russ is still her chauffeur. Ernest Moon is appearing at the Metropolitan Opera house tonight. This is his first appearance there for over a year. He has been touring the country making personal appearances in schools all over the nation. Ernie had had a lot of practice during '46 when he used to entertain the members of the basketball team with his own versions of the latest hits. We never thought he'd take up opera singing though, but I guess that was an ambition that he kept pretty well hidden during school days. Now as we return to our home town, we find that Marilee Dean has pur- chased the Odd Fellows Hall and has converted it into a roller skating rink. We hear she still does well teaching the boys the new waltz steps. She cordially invites all the members of the class of '46 to skate, free of charge, when they make their returning visits to Mahomet. HATCHET 0RATl0NW:'rsl ' Kenneth Paul is our husky farmer, Around all the animals he's a charmer. One of Coke's special arts Is learning about autos and their parts. Tub Brown is short and stout. He has shown all the girls about. . At playing the drums, he is great competition, And some day should be in the hall of musicians. Marilee Dean is our sweater girl. She use to give all the boys a whirl, A But now she's become a regular navy fan, With a diamond from her sailor man. Rex Morfey was our man around town Until Mansfield stepped in and tamed hi-m down. He goes out for great subjects., such as history, Although they still remain to him a lnystery. Ernest Moon has a dark brown tan. He's good in the Held as our baseball man. His chief ambition is raising hogs, But does a good job of leading our Bulldogs. Molly Shell is the Queen of the School. She knows all the athletic rules. To be an aviatrix is her ambition, And we know she will succeed with her sweet disposition Roberta Rayburn is the runt of the class. When it comes to good grades, she will surely pass. Now a certain boy in Sadorus has her heart, And it will be a while before they part. Jo-Anne Rayburn is the musician of the class. And as for typing, she canlt be passed. The men in her life give her quite a whirl, But Tump,' steps in and settles the quarrel. Ruth Crowley is better known as Red , Because of all that hair on her head. Around school she never has much to say, But in 4-H work, she leads the way. Next on line is the wit of the class. At telling jokes he'll surely pass. At basketball, he plays with all his might. Estal Hillman-you guessed right! NAME Next in line is our little wolf-gal . All the boys think she's a regular pal, Virgil thinks .she will pass any test. Phyll Carson, you guessed it, is one of the best. As a stenographer, Jim Babb will pass For he's spent two years in the shorthand class. Babo will hold his boxing position, Along with his mischievous disposition. Lyle Primmer is the man with the looks, And with an apron on he makes a good cook. To get to Champaign is his main ambition For he wants to see Dorothy under any condition. Dolores Shell is a blond headed twin. In typing she surely will win a pin. She is quite a basketball fan, And is trying to find a basketball man. You would have to work for many days To beat Peg Shell at making A's. She likes to play basketball, and that isn't all, She plans to be married before next fall.

Allen Kent, an ex-Marine, accepted 55,000 from his uncle to bring a Cannibal Queen to the U. S. for scientific study, but returned sans money and sans Queen. Bruce Clyde had staked his future as an editor on the return of the Queen. Together Allen, Bruce, and Brenda concocted a ruse to produce a fake Queen in the person of Brenda, satisfy the Professor, save Allen's face, save Bruce's paper, and make Brenda an actress. All of which might have occurred except that the real Queen appeared. With four characters made up as natives of the Solomons, hoodoo-magic, an elevator which really worked, fire sirens, and train whistles this proved to be one of the most unusual as well as one of the noisiest plays in years. W The Cannibal Queen was presented April 12 under the capable direction of Mrs. Lovelass, to a capacity crowd. Admissions totaled 315000, the largest gross a- mount to date for a school production. Wylma Kelley and Keith Dawkins were stage assistants. Juniors served as ushers. - The cast: Martha Craig .......... owner of the hotel ..........

C. H. S. in 1943. This was one of the smallest classes enrolled in many years. After we were made well acquainted by an initiation party, we elected class officers. Bob Herriott, presidentg Lois Smith, vice- presidentg Alice Moon, secretary-treasurerg Betty Humphrey, reporterg and Virgil Ma- hin, historian. Miss Hatteberg was our class sponsor. During our first year we lost Ruth Coffey, Mary Hunter, Betty Humphrey, William Marshall,'Paul Meredith, and John Osterdock from our class. L Our sophomore year, with Mrs. Lovelass as sponsor, we elected the follow- ing: Lois Smith, presidentg Virgil Mahin, vice-presidentg Bob Herriott, secretary-treas- urerg and Alice Moon, reporter and historian Dolly N eader and Homer James were with us part of the year. We returned to M. C. H. S. for a third year with two new members: Lynn Seward and Betty Carson. Ray Holt, Dorothy Long, and Lynn Seward dropped from school leaving us with a small class of twelve. In October, the class play Salad Days was presented. by six of the juniors and the help of two sophomores. We ordered class jewelry early and received it as Christmas presents. Class sponsors were Miss Swan and Mr. Engelking. Class officers were Lois Smith, presidentg Virginia Bird, vice-presi- dentg and Bob Herriott, secretary-treasurer. Our student council members elected from the class were Virginia Deener, Bob Herriott, and Virgil Mahin. We had six girls from our class in the F. H. A., six members in band, and two boys on the basketball team and in F. F. A. ' All of us are looking forward to next year when we will be seniors.

With her vast knowledge and intuition, She will surely succeed in her desired ambition. O young, Bob Herriott, comes from the farm, His dimples, his wavy hair, his car spell charm. Baseball is his first love in athletic sports, But he's a sweet player on a basketball court. Alice Moon, is the junior class musician, But sometimes she hesitates to turn on the ignition. At times she just can't be anything but slow, But when it comes to some things, she's in the know Virginia Bird, Red to a few, Has bid all the other fellows adieu. 'She thinks she's boarding a heaven built chariot When she goes riding with handsome Bob Herriott. Virgil Mahin loves horses and wide open spaces, He's a catcher who throws 'em out on the bases. The girls all envy his permanent wave, And about his auburn curl, they simply rave. Mary Barr is a country gal Who has Alma Coffin as her bosom pal. In typing tests, Mary never fails, And sometimes you see her wearing pigtails. Look out girls, for what's coming next! It's that Don Juan Elliott who's quite perplexed. He takes a different gal each Saturday night, And he actually thinks he's livin' right. Betty Lou Carson is quiet and shy And hardly ever blinks an eye. The boys she doesn't try to thrill, For she's not like her sister Phyll. Alma Coffin is friendly and jolly, To chase the boys, she thinks 'tis folly. Now a secretary Alma wants to be And who in the junior class would do better than she? Edna Webb, who is never wrong, .Has a sweet feminine voice that's decidedly strong. Sometimes she goes to Champaign on the bus Unless, of course, she is escourted by Russ. Virginia Deener is a pretty tough kid, For a man with money she'll make her bid, She's quite a star in athletics, too. At the telephone office, Ginny, what do you do? Mary Faith Pfiester is slim and rather tall, She does quite well when she plays basketball, She bicycles in from her country home, She studies and doesn't let her thoughts roam.

The play took its title from the quotation, Salad days- when we were young and green in judgment. This was a teen age comedy with roller skating, proms, lessons, relatives, and love trouble the most pressing problems to be solved. The setting was a porch of the Hammond home and the stage was appropri- ately furnished with outdoor furniture and flowers.. Because the junior class was small, two sophomores completed the cast, and sophomores, Marilyn Walker, Betty Epperson, Ferne Allen, John Mohr, Ernest Bailey, and Lynn Seward acted as ushers.

Very soon after registration, we held our first class meeting and elected officers which were: president, Wylma Kelley, vice- president, Jack Moong secretary-treasurer, Jean Davis, and reporter, Wanda Ponder. Then came the great event, the initiation party, which really was not as bad as was rumored. During the year three students dropped from our class.. As sophomores, we entered M. C. H. S. with an enrollment of twenty-three. Our class officers were: Fern Allen, presidentg Jean Davis, vice-president: Shirley White, secretary-treasurer, Jack Moon and Wylma Kelley, student council representatives. Mrs. Lovelass was class sponsor. We had fourteen members in band, nine in F. H. A., six in basketball, and five in the F. VF. A. Since the junior class was so small, we had the honor of having two of our members, Jean Davis and Marilyn Hough, in the junior class play. In early spring two members, Marilyn Hough and Marilyn Walker, moved from our district, but two new members joined us. They were A urettia Gilmore and Lester Endsley from Sadorus. Our achievements up to this time have been, we hope, but a faint foreshadow of our posssibilities.

Eleven of these graduated from Mahomet Grade School and the rest from rural schools. At the end of the Iirst semester, two students transferred to join us, one from Champaign and one from Indiana. Patricia Hough, one of our honor students, moved to Sandwich, Illinois. Initiation was Friday, September 14. The Greenies had to polish upper classmen's shoes all afternoon and evening, also, they had to kneel when given orders. The boys wore girls' dresses and were furnished with makeup. The girls wore boys' clothes. In the evening, the freshmen presented a program in the community room for the enjoyment of the faculty members and the upper classmen. The initiates sur- vived this and are looking forward to Welcoming the freshmen next year. The class was well represented in extra-curricular activities. Six girls were in the F. H.. A., three members were in band three boys were on the basketball team, and five in the F. F. A. I We soon became adjusted to the rules and regulations. With Miss Meyer as our class advisor, we elected the following officers: Bill Herriott, president, Keith Daw- kins, vice-presidentg Bill Dean, secretary-treasurer, and Marilyn Ponder, student council representative.

For the second year, we joined the I. H. S. P. A. and attended the Press Convention at the University of Illinois. We selected a motto for the paper to be permanent- Love truth but pardon error. One of our best issues contained a picture of the freshmen initiation. This was the first year cuts had been used in the paper. -- STAFF M- Editor ........... Jo-Anne Rayburn News .....

At the beginning of the year a program of work was set up which included our constitution, our committees, chapter goals, and purposes. The chapter has been more active this year than in previous years. At the end of the first semester, we had two hundred and thirteen dollars in the treasury. This money was secured from two scrap drives, an F. F. A. carnival, and the sale of garden seeds. Part of the money was invested in a duroc gilt which is being kept by a m-ember, who will receive part of the profit. The chapter has accomplished many worthwhile projects this year and will continue to do so next year. . The juniors and seniors held their American Literature and American History classes together this year.

All of the girls served on at least one committee during the year. Our largest project was a clothing drive for refugee children and in this drive we collected three hundred sixty-eight garments. We also served refreshments at many of the home basketball games. Each member bought F. H. A. pins and Miss Swan, our advisor, presented them to us at the Mother's Tea which was held in December. A Christmas theme was used throughout our program. Various subjects were discussed at our regular meetings. Mrs. Mescal Love- lass spoke at one of our meetings on Speech In Everyday Living.
