Our school was built in 1926 and since then has had its share of humor and sadness, as the teachers and students have passed through its doors. Since 1926, Manteno Township High School has had three principals: J. F. Benham 11926-19411, F. G. Kopnick C1941-19421 and J. Paul Gnagey 11942-19511. More than 850 graduates have been prepared here for lives they are to lead. Manteno Township High School, we and the classes before us, are reluctant to see you go, but by doing this you are enlarging the social life of our fair community. We shall never forget all the little things that have happened to make school so pleasurable-and we owe it all to you -Manteno Township High School. - '.....1-....':: IIlilI1'l'EllilU -'- Uur Faculty MISS VALERA BERRY--Miss Berry was graduated in 1949 from Mac- Murray College, Jacksonville, Ill., where she received her Bachelor of Music degree.

A dance followed the crowning of the queen, music being supplied by orchestra recordings. 1 -'.ll lllilIl'l'EllllU -..::....... - ...... Boys' Physical Education The best activity to come out of boys' physical education this year was the interclass basketball tournament, held in February, in Which the seniors proved victorious. Other physical education periods were utilized in training the boys for basketball, track and baseball. Girls' Physical Education Games, athletics, stunts and dances are an essential part of the selected activities that make up the material used in Girls' Physical Edu- cation. Physical education provides opportunity for the development of sound attitudes, habits and knowledge of wholesome living. A girl may develop an ability to relax in recreational activities and to cooperate with others. During the year there were three class tournaments held in minor sports: Badminton, ping-pong and volleyball. The volleyball tournament was won by the mighty sophomores. Our champion ping-pong player was Pat Trunk, a freshman. The badminton championship was claimed by Jean Lemay, a sophomore.

Those words will no longer be heard on the short wave band, for the body that held the mind to which those call letters were assigned saw fit to release Francis Guertin's spirit from its earthly bondage on May 4, 1951. Francis by nature was full of intellectual curiosity. He was especially interested in our universe and its Creator. He often referred to God much as one would refer to ones parents. Francis G-uertin is not here in body. Our hearts are sad because we realize that we shall not see Francis again in this lifeg but while we sor- row, yet we have a steadfast hope and a firm belief in immortality. We know that our separation from him will not be permanent. Aristides Theodorus, early in the second century, writing to one of his friends about Christianity and giving reasons why it spread so rapidly, said: If any righteous man among the Christians passes from this world, they rejoice and offer thanks to God and they escort his body with songs and thanksgiving, as if he were setting out from one place to another nearby. This could describe our attitude toward the passing of Francis Guertin. We rejoice that his spirit is no longer hampered by an earthly bodyg his mind is now free to seek out the answers to the many questions that so often perplexed him. And so, in the vernacular of the Ham Radio Operator, thanks, Francis, for a very pleasant QSO.

' Hotel Manteno is one of the most ultra-modern hotels in the central United States. When we walk through the arched doorway, who should we see but the manager, Gerald Hatch. Gerald took us through the hotel and told us all about its beginning. The chief food advisor for the dining room and dancing pavilion is Eilene Wichtendahl. She is a graduate of one of the best cooking and foods schools in the world. Now that we are back in the lobby we see coming through the door Charles Willis. Charles has a large string of high class restaurants. There near the terrace we see Edmund Martin and Paul LaMore, who are the best agriculturists in the United States. Talking to them is a great chem- ist from Washington, D.C., Paul Feldsien, Jr. Paul works in the largest laboratory in the world. He does war research for the government., As we look 'around we see the great Professor Eugene Porter. Eu- gene is professor of chemistry at the University of Texas. Talking to Professor Gene is a Marine. This high-ranking Marine is Parmley Weir, Pee Wee to us. He is the most valuable man in the Marine Corps. Over there near the dining hall door is Rutha Jane Williams, better known as Madame Ruthla. She has a very large hat-designing industry. As a side-line, Rutha operates an ice cream parlor. Look over there-it's Carnie Shaw. He owns many skating rinks and has trained many good skating stars. Next to Carnie we see Leslie Joplin, who owns a large share in the Wrigley Field ball park and is chief vendor. Here is good old Marianne Bensema. Although during school she wasn't too ambitious, today Marianne is owner of the chain of stores known 'as the S 81 C Stores. Talking to her is Frances Hayen, who for- mulated the plans to remodel the White House. Talking to her is that greatest architect of all times, Robert Boyd. He is working on the struc- ture of the outside of the White House. Near the desk is George Porter, who has invented a kind of machine known as the Alico machine. It has proved superior to the Diesel engine. Just entering the hotel is Genald's private secretary, Arlene Nietfeldt. She is a graduate of the University of California.

Alice McCray, our famous C.P.A. operator, is talking to Howard Potts. Howard has just finished making the blueprints for a new Jet plane. Marilyn LaMore, the greatest novelist of our time, has finally arrived. She has just finished another novel, Farmland Magic, which is sure to be a best seller. Just in case there is need for a good nurse, Charlotte Drazy has finally arrived. She is one of the best nurses in the United States. We, the Class of 1951, are not stating that all these things in the prophecy will come true, but we hope everyone will become as famous and as successful as the prophecy has stated. A Poem to Remember There is an old Franciscan prayer, dating back many hundreds of years, that goes like this: God give me strength to change the wrongs I can change, to accept the wrongs I cannot change, and the wisdom to know the difference. As you leaf through this annual, in years to come, may you pause just a moment when you reach this page-and reflect on the above prayer. Good luck to all of you, J. PAUL GNAGEY 1 ........,.....
