Manlius High School - Mirror Devil Yearbook (Manlius, IL)

Text from Pages 1 - 76 of the 1938 volume:

The MIRROR of 1938 PUBLISHED BY THE SENIOR CLASS MANLIUS TOWNSHIP HIGH SCHOOL Volume 3 Number 1 Dedication and Foreword • This volume is most gratefully dedicated to those pioneers of education who, by their conscientious and efficient leadership have made possible the blessings of free, public schools in this great republic. May our schools ever be institutions where the principles of democracy, love of country, freedom of thought, and righteous living are respected and held as fundamental to a happy nation. uouuHisiuiwad The Board of Education □ President...............Charles Schmidt Secretary..................Stacy Hewitt Members E. C. Olson, John Edlefson, W. C. Raabe (Claude Barber is now a member, having been elected to replace Mr. Olson who was not a candidate for reelection.) The graduating class of '38 has been quite fortunate in having the same men on the Board of Education throughout their four years of High School life. W. C. Raabe, the most recently elected member of the board has served for five years and the terms of the others range from seven to twelve years. These capable men represent a cross section of life in Manlius Township, having among them, three farmers and two operators of garages and automobile agencies. Since almost everyone knows these men, no effort will be made to list their many personal achievements. Charles Schmidt, E. C. Olson, Stacy Hewitt and John Edlefson all took an active part in planning and promoting our new gymnasium back in ’31. Today we sometimes wonder how former students could manage in such a small building as the original one was. Although their task seems simple and easy to many, the school board has many troubles and trials. The students owe them a vote of appreciation for all their efforts in their behalf. In remembering Manlius High School, may we not forget the Board of Directors. Manlius Township High School □ Our high school is built in two sections connected by an enclosed hall. The east wing of the school is used for the classes and was built in 1920. This building has two floors in it and a basement. In this part there are ten class rooms including a well-equipped Physics laboratory; kitchen for Cooking classes; Clothing room equipped with electric sewing machines and electric irons; a room furnished with typewriters for the Business classes. The other rooms are used for recitation purposes. One of these rooms is not used for classes but is set aside for banquets or can be used as a workshop by the Farm Management Class. This room is also used for band practice if the gym is in use. Another room on the upper story is used for Chorus and for individual music lessons. Besides these classrooms, there is a large assembly with enough desks in it to accommodate 110 students. A hallway runs all along the south side of the assembly which faces east. A stairway from this hall leads to the main entrance. Two water fountains are situated in this hall, one at each end of the Assembly. The principal's office and two storerooms are also on this floor. A small room and the history room are at the east end of the assembly. The small room is used for printing the newspaper and for any other printing done in the school. At the back of the assembly are a bulletin board, a large library and the English room. The west half of the building contains a large gym built in 1931. It is equipped with modern showers, a stage, and a large gym floor. Two store-rooms on both sides are built at the main entrance. The trophy case is located near the main entrance. The bleachers extend along the south side of the gym. The basketball floor is 36 x 68, the second largest gym in the Little Eight Conference. The stage is on the north side with the two shower and dressing rooms on each side of it. The many banners won by the teams from Manlius are hung on the north wall. This summary covers briefly the physical make-up of Manlius Township High School of which are students are justly proud. W. C Pi a si be.

Mr. French was then governor of this great colony. Miss Ware, Miss Beyer, Miss Holtz, Mr. Sherman and Mr. Peart were assistant leaders. Upon our arrival we were received by the former settlers. To acquaint us with this new life we were the honored guests at an annual initiation party sponsored by the Sophomores. Although we had many hardships during our first year in the settlement we prospered by gaining a greater store of knowledge. After having spent a year in this region, we began our second year in High School with greater confidence. It was this year that Mr. Hake came to take the office of Mr. French who had been given a higher position. In the fall of the next year, when we returned to settle down and do some real studying we were sorry to learn that a few of the class had not returned to the colony. However, we did receive a new member, Charles Jones. It was during this year that some of the big events of our school lives started to take place. We gave a play entitled The Closed Door.” In the early part of this year several of the members of the Junior Class took a trip to the Field Museum in Chicago. The greatest event of our Junior year besides the play was the Junior-Senior Banquet. Following established cus- tom, we Juniors were the hosts of the dignified” Seniors of ’37. We entertained them at the Hotel Kaskaskia in La Salle. The main entertainment of the evening was the movie, Seventh Heaven. Our Senior year was the busiest and happiest of our stay in this colony. We had some very distinguished boys in our class. Marvin Clary was chosen center on the Little Eight All-Star Football Team. Lawrence Van Meir, Richard Anderson and Clinton Thompson were given honorable mention. Our class was composed of artists, musicians, dancers, comedians, actors, actresses, singers, and above all, a group of fun-loving students. Many of the students of our class attended the Vocational Conference at Bradley in April to see what college life was like. During the last week of school we took our senior trip which was enjoyed by all. On May 13 we gave a play An Old Fashioned Mother,” a rural comedy in three acts. We were also entertained at LaSalle by the Juniors at the annual Junior-Senior Banquet. Our four year sojourn in this colony has been very worthwhile and it is our hope that future generations may look back to our record with some admiration and that we may have made the school and the community a little better because of our having lived in it and having contributed our small share to its history.

Johnnie Lawrence Van Meir Musician Flirting Goodnight, Doris Dutchy The Senior Giant □ If by chance you should meet the nineteen Seniors, who will be graduated in 1938 from the Manlius Township High School, as one great Senior, you would seek the first hiding place available. A man six feet tall would only be able to reach the great man's ankle, as this man would be one hundred and ten feet high, or taller than a nine story building. This monster would have the weight of two thousand, seven hundred and twenty-five pounds, equivalent to nearly one and two-fifths tons. The Senior's foot would require a shoe of the unbelieveable size of one hundred and sixty-six. One foot alone would cover an area of nine hundred and seven square feet. The giant’s stride would be nearly forty-four feet and in only one hundred and twenty steps he could walk a mile. Not only would this monster have a waist measuring nearly fifty feet but he would have a chest measurement of nearly fifty nine feet. One arm, alone, would exceed a length of titty feet, making him able to reach an object over 160 feet high. His wrist would have a circumference of eleven feet. The man's third finger would be over five feet long while his forefinger would require a 1938 class ring—size of one hundred and eighty. The Senior's huge shoulders would tower 96 feet above the ground and fourteen men could be placed on his shoulders. The monster’s ears would have a surface of approximately nine square feet and the lens tor his glasses would be two and one-half feet in diameter. The required hat size for the Senior would be the impossible size of one hundred and thirty-four. Insofar as appetite is concerned the giant would break all of the world records of the past. For breakfast he could eat a pancake nearly three feet in diameter in one enormous mouthful. His required dinner pail would have a volume of nearly five cubic feet. With all of the loud-voiced boys in the Senior Class the giant would have a voice that could be heard for miles away. When he walked the earth would tremble as if there were an earthquake. So I am sure that the residents of Manlius are glad that this mythical Senior exists only in the imagination of the author. Class Prophecy--Time 1958 □ Ah! At last it is perfected. I call it my new Radio-Eye, which sees all and hears everything— Present or Future. As I adjust the dials, I hear a crooner. Is it a radio singer.-' No, as the picture appears I see John Wright the mechanic who sings while he works. Turning the dials I see a wild mob on the Notre Dame football field. Borne by cheering crowds is Lawrence Van Meir, the Irish coach, who is hailed for leading his team to a victory over the Army. When this picture fades I seem to see deserts and pyramids. On the top of the largest, sits Dick Anderson, the fellow who travels the world as a carefree vagabond. Out of the air I hear a forceful speaker saying 1 shall pay off the National debt and end this tyrannical farm program.” His voice seems familiar and soon I see Erwin Thompson, the first Republican President since Hoover, giving his inaugural address amid the cheers of a wild crowd. The scene soon changes and a small island appears completely surrounded by white ducks. Out of the house comes the big duck ranchman, Verne Olson, who has enjoyed raising ducks since his earliest childhood. The island vanishes and a super-streamlined locomotive capable of a speed of 200 miles per hour appears. George Kares, the fellow who worked his way up from a chauffer’s job to chief engineer sits at the controls of the thundering locomotive. Turning the dial slightly I behold a well dressed playboy entering a swanky New York night dub. It is Randall Jensen, the millionaire. He is met at the door by the manager Marvin Clary. The light goes out and Marvin steps to the stage to introduce the first number. He presents to the applauding crowd the maestro. Ford Jacobson and his high class Swing Orchestra. Again I turn the dials to see a handsome fellow making love to a beautiful girl. It is Charles Jones and Dorothy Roush but it is only for the movies. Incidentally Charles and Dorothy were voted the two most popular screen stars ot the year. As I shift the dial a battleship comes into view. On the bridge stands Admiral Clinton Thompson and Captain Harold Stier both Annapolis graduates and fine sailors. Thompson's fleet defeated a rival navy last year and he has been hailed as a hero ever since. A Texas scene comes into view and Tex” Strole appears at the head of a detachment of hard riding straight shooting Texas Rangers who are feared by outlaws all along the border. Tex” learned to ride a horse while still a student at good old M. H. S. Now we are back in Illinois and someone is giving medicine to a sick horse. It is the veterinarian, Leland Dabler, who has a reputation for never losing a single patient in ten years of practice. Now a radio broadcasting station comes into view and popular announcer Milford Behrens steps up to announce Neoma Barker, the author and reader of an Advice to the Lovelorn” skit. As this disappears, I behold an old familiar scene. It is the front assembly desk at Manlius High School and wearing a pair of horn rimmed glasses is Harold Andrews the principal of the school for twelve years. Now I know my machine is a success for it has brought back the faces of the class of 38 from all parts of this wide world. —Bernyl Sanden JUNIOR CLASS President_____________________ .._____Lawrence Dale Vice President.............................Rubye Lindelof Secretary Opal Conley Adviser...............................

Six boys were chosen to participate in the County Festival in May, when all the schools in the county sing together. Last year the Boys’ Glee Club did not have the opportunity' to sing for this Festival. Fifteen members of the club were in the Operetta eight of whom took an active part. Those boys who took part in the May Festival were Cecil Hard, Ben Butler, Lawrence Van Meir, Ben Schuneman, Charles Jones, and Billy Rudiger. □ BAND Our band was conducted this year by Mrs. Claude Langford. Many students have learned to play under her instruction. The band holds rehearsals every Thursday afternoon. Music was furnished by the band in connection with school plays that were pre- sented this past year. The members are: • Trumpets ° Saxaphones • Clarinets Lawrence Van Meir Ethel Schmidt Rita Hewitt Charles Jones Verla Teske Ford Jacobson Billy Rudiger Avis Thompson Jacqueline Stier Alverda Teske • T rom bones • Drum • Bass Hazel Riggs Ralph Jones Phyllis Pierson Harold Andrews Robert Strole □ GIRLS' GLEE CLUB The Girls' Glee Club under the direction of Mrs. Langford has accomplished a great deal this year. Perhaps the first big event of the year was the Operetta. All the girls in the chorus took an active part in it by being either in the cast or on various committees. For the first time, the Girls' Chorus together wjth the Boys' Chorus took part in the Zone and County Music Festivals held at Bureau Township High School and in Princeton. Twelve girls were chosen to participate in the Music Festival. O ft A A DRAMATICS RLL SCHOOL PLAY DEACON DUBBS The star role was a comic old farmer, not the usual stage type of hayseed, but the real, genuine, kind-hearted, wise old Deacon. The heroine. Rose Raleigh, the brave little school ma'm, was a strong, emotional part. A country boy and a Swedish girl were great comedy hits; also a comedy old maid and a tomboy sombrette, a finely drawn hero, character Auctioneer and an excellent villian. There was a feature scene in every act. There was a Country Auction in the first act, a Country Wedding in the second, and a Country Husking Bee in the third. JUNIOR CLASS PLAY THE EYES OF TLALOC In John Wayne's ranch house in South Carolina, hung a large vivid painting of the Aztec god, Tlaloc. Outside, an equinoctial storm raged with wind, rain and lightning. Amanda and Ezra, furtive old caretakers of the place admitted one after another of the strange group of people who enacted the drama within the walls of the mysterious house. They arrived quickly in succession: the suave Professor,” Tommy Tinker, a shrewd young man posing as prize fighter; Nancy Howe, beautiful niece of the ranch owner and friends, Pat and Virginia; Nawa, a sinister Indian; Pudge, a taxi driver; Salvador, a fiery Mexican and his sister, Pepita. John Wayne was missing and the climax was reached when he returned exposing the villain and the romantic incident of the story was culminated. SENIOR CLASS PLAY AN OLD FASHIONED MOTHER The story was a parable of a mother’s love triumphant over the ingratitude and neglect of her children. The action of the play took place in a tiny village of Canton, in northern New York. Aunt Deborah was a blessed old saint in Israel, nearly seventy years old, the widow of a Deacon and the mother of four boys and two girls. All the children had married and moved away except Charley and John. John, the youngest was the idol of his mother's heart, but he was led astray by evil companions and broke his mother's heart. John was arrested for murder which he never committed and was taken to jail. A criminal on his death bed confessed that he had committed the murder of which John was convicted. John was immediately released and the climax reached when after a few years John returned a rich and respected man. He returned just in time to save his mother from the disgrace of going to the poorhouse. Jerry Gosling, a country boy. Miss Lowizy Loviny Custard, a romantic old maid and Sukey, the daughter of Widder Bill Pindle carried the comedy parts of the play.

HIGH SCHOOL CARNIVAL The High School Carnival has long been an annual spring event of the school calendar. To it look both adults and students with much anticipation for it represents a time when cares are laid aside for a while and a holiday spirit fills the air. The Carnival is primarly a commercial venture for the school as a whole, as well as for individual organizations which profit because of it. A general admission of ten cents is charged at the door which entitles the customer to see the free stage shows held on each evening. A variety of booths and concessions are provided which not only create a Carnival atmosphere but are the means of securing revenue. Such enterprises as Bingo, Shooting Gallery, Baby Show, Odditorium, Cane-Rack, Free-Throw Contests, Moving Pictures, Crazy House, Hobby Collection, etc., represent only a few of the most popular attractions of the past few years. New ones are added each year to replace or to supplement the old. The profits of the Carnival are divided by participating organizations. A portion goes into a general school fund which is used to provide things about the school for which there is a need. Some of the most recent uses made of this general fund have been the purchase of reception-room furniture, a radio, recreational equipment, automatic program clock, sound moving picture machine, etc. All high school students are drafted into service for the Carnival. This insures an universal interest and a sense of responsibility for all who participate. The Student Council acts as the general supervisory committee although chairmen are appointed for each major department. The Carnival was held on the nights of April 22 and 23 this year. Since it is an affair suggesting frivolity and noisy celebration it is planned to be held outside of the Lenten season. The cooperation of students and townspeople and the remarkable attendance at each successive Carnival festivity indicates its popularity. Every effort is made to eliminate practices or conduct which would be unbecoming to the school which sponsors the event. MIRROR STAFF Editors................. Business Manager............... Feature Writers™...__..... Art Editor ........ .... Adviser An annual is almost a necessity for a high school. Our school formerly published such a book until the depression struck. In 1936, a year of prosperity, the yearbook idea was revived with the first issue of the Mirror and a second in 19.37. The class of '38 is proud to carry on with this work in our ''Mirror for 19.38. We wish to thank the business men of Manlius and surrounding cities for the purchase of advertising space which made the Mirror possible and Dorothy Roush, Neoma Barker ................

Our newspaper is distributed free of charge, the ••raterials being contributed by the school and all articles of course come from the students themselves. The Maroon staff has worked faithfully and many of them derive pleasure from seeing their own stories and articles in print as do any young writers. Much credit is due to Lawrence Van Meir and the assistant editor, Jean Allen Van Ormer, who have been directly responsible for having the papier ready to distribute every other Friday afternoon.

Directors Mrs. Langford and Mrs. Hake EIGHTH GRADE DAY □ Another annual institution of our school is the Annual Eighth Grade Visitation Day. Each spring a general invitation is extended to all prospective eighth grade graduates and their teachers to spend the day at the high school. The regular classroom schedule is followed and the visitors are invited to attend any classes in which they have an interest. Naturally, they visit freshman classes, for the most part, since it is those classes which they themselves, expect to attend next year. Periods are shortened so that all academic work is finished in the morning. At noon a lunch is served and the afternoon is devoted to recreation typical of the school. This year a motion picture was shown following which both visitors and local students were guests at the last interscholastic softball game of the season. Naturally, it is our hope that all of our eighth grade visitors will enter school in Manlius next fall but if that is not possible, every encouragement is given the students to attend high school some where. Under normal circumstances every elementary school graduate should continue his education. Carefully prepared statistics of leading economists show that a high school graduate's earning power greatly exceeds that of the eighth grade graduate. Based on actual cases it has been found that the total average earnings of an eighth grader are $45,000 while the high school graduate may earn an average total of $78,000. Beyond that, the college graduate's average earning power is $150,000. The writer is not attempting to create the impression that a desire for increased earning power should be the prime motive for attendance in an institution of learning. The schools are rendering a far greater service than that, for the value of an education cannot be measured in dollars and cents. However, financial security' is of great importance and while not guaranteed by education it is made possible and much more probable. LIBRARY The library has approximately a thousand books in it. Several new books have been added to it this year. The library has been partitioned off from the rest of the assembly. Every period there is a different student librarian and every six weeks librarians are changed. The librarians in charge check out all books and magazines taken from the library. Betty Hartz is the N. Y. A. worker for the library. She takes care of all the books and puts numbers on them. Miss Nelson is overseer of the library, and is supervisor of the librarians. A new set of encyclopedia was also added to the library this year. They are entitled the Encyclopedia Britannica. Just a few of our new books purchased are: Northwest Passage.................................... How to Win Friends and Influence People M iss Bishop.........................................

Independently supervised study is held in this room at every period of the day. All entertainment for the students is also held in this room. There are one hundred and four students in the assembly at full attendance. The students were divided into the Philomathean and Delphain literary societies which groups alternate every Monday and entertain the remainder of the student body and the faculty. The program is held during the eighth period. The Delphian Society is under the direction of Jean Allen Van Ormer and Philomatheans are governed by Lawrence Van Meir. There is a reference table located at the front of the room and also a newspaper stand which is furnished with a large daily newspaper. This is a very popular place and it is always in use. STUDENT COUNCIL ............Marvin Clary ..........Raymond Van Pouche Miss Mensendick and Mr. Hake President....................... Secretary and Treasurer.........- Faculty Members_________________ The Student Council is an organization consisting of two members from each class in school. The students are Phyllis Pierson and Owen Hurst from the Freshman class, Raymond Van Pouche and Rita Hewitt of the Sophomore class, Gertrude Wiggim and LeRoy Hard of the Junior class, and Marvin Clary and Dorothy Roush of the Senior class. This group supervises the all-school activities during the school year. The Carnival is a major event of the school. It is the duty of the Student Council to appoint all committees for this affair and to see that all function properly. Another activity sponsored is that of Eighth Grade Visitation Day which is held each year in the spring. The Student Council is designed to represent the view points and wishes of the student body in school activities. Accomplishments of the Year Purchase of Sound Motion Picture Equipment.

A special table was purchased two years ago for the use of Ping Pong. The table is placed in the back part of the assembly. Very interesting series of tournaments are held each year. This is one sport in which both boys and girls may compete. The money for our Ping Pong set was raised by the students’ sale of magazines. THE RECEPTION ROOM □ The reception room, before last year was just an unfurnished room. Last year this room was furnished with a three piece suite and radio. This year a different radio was purchased to be used for educational purposes and recreation before and after school hours. This room is used as waiting room for visitors, and as a lounging room for students and faculty. The walls are furnished in a light cream color which makes the room bright and cheerful. They are decorated by two pictures, one of Lincoln and one of Washington which add to the attractiveness of the room. The floor was covered with a new linoleum rug contrasting with the walls and furniture making this room one of the most quiet and home-like rooms of the building. For the convenience of the students this room is also equipped with a telephone. Adjoining this room there is a small closet where students may keep their musical instruments.

FOOTBALL In the fall of 1937 Mr. Taylor started his second year as Coach at Manlius. He had to make his team from boys that didn't have very much experience. There were only four lettermen from last year for the team. He had to work hard to whip his team in shape for the first game against Wyanet. The day for the game dawned rainy and the Maroons could not do very much. Wyanet finally eked out a 12-0 victory after a hard fight. However the boys showed their spirit when they defeated Neponset the next Friday 20-0. The next week the team suffered another defeat at the hands of the more experienced Walnut team. After this they enjoyed a successful season defeating Sheffield, Buda and Tiskilwa, to tie for second place in the League. Marvin Clary was elected center on the Little Eight All-Star eight man football team. Lawrence Van Meir, Richard Anderson, Clinton Thompson and Lawrence Dale were given honorable mention. The seven graduating boys hope that Manlius can place a Championship team next year. 1937 SCHEDULE Manlius......... 0 Manlius.........20 Manlius ........ 6 Wyanet 12 Neponset 0 Walnut 38 Manlius 6 Manlius.......... 9 Manlius.......... 18 Manlius..........19 Princeton .........39 Buda .............. 7 Sheffield ......... 6 Tiskilwa .......... 0 BASKETBALL A relatively small quad turned out for Basketball and a few of these quit so Mr. Taylor had only about 18 from which to pick his team. The team played Ohio in their first game one week after they hung up their football togs. Manlius won only three games during the season. The first one was at Mineral whom Manlius defeated 35-36. The second one was against Neponset. Four first team players were ineligible for this game so things looked pretty dark for Manlius but when the smoke cleared away after the game Manlius was ahead 28-34. Our last victory was our last conference game against Wyanet. We won by a mar- gin of 16 points. Manlius lost by 3 points in the tirst game of the Little Eight Tournament and by 1 point to Princeton in the Bureau County Tournament. In the District Tournament the boys got up their ''dander” and won the first place trophy. They breezed through the first two nights by defeating Ohio and Malden, and then finished off by defeating the big Tiskilwa team 40-33. They lost to Spring Valley 40-25 in the first game of the Regional Tournament. The first ten players and the team manager got a free trip to Champaign to the State semi-finals and finals as a reward for winning the District Tournament. 1937-38 SCHEDULE 24 .26 Manlius 25 Buda .35 Manlius 27 Sheffield -37 Manlius 28 Neponset ....23 24 26 Wyanet 19 Manlius 30 Tiskilwa .. 40 Manlius 36 Mineral 35 SOFTBALL Softball is the main spring sport for high schools in the Little Eight. Track was popular until in 1934 when Softball was voted in to replace track. A few invitational track meets are sponsored by some of the Little Eight schools. Manlius has won a pennant every year in soft-ball since it was established as a Little Eight sport. Last year, our school won the Championship and hope to repeat it this year. A large number of boys turned out to compete for the positions on the first team and to represent Manlius in competition. Although a large number of lettermen were graduated last year, Mr. Taylor has a very good group of ball players from which to pick. A softball team requires ten players and a 12 inch ball is used. The feet apart. Manlius tied for second place in the Conference this year. 1938 SCHEDULE AT HOME April 12 (Won) ...............Sheffield April 22 (Won)___________________Wyanet May 6 (Lost) ...................
