Through their understanding and encourage- ment, we were able to withstand the difficult mo- ments as well as appreciate the happy moments ex- perienced during our days here at M.C.H.S.

' I 11' .ei N Many many years ago the famous philosopher Plato said A good education consists in giving to the body and to the soul all the beauty and perfec- tion of which it is capable. The application of this great idea of Platos has changed throughout the intervening years as society has changed. But the central idea of developing the best human being possible has ever remained the goal of education. lf I am right that our American system of edu- cation is the symbol of the special contribution which this, our republic has made to the conceptof democ- cracy, then the importance of education is everlast- ingly increasing. No less a person than General Omar Bradley recently stated that the strength and back- bone of our democracy is an informed electorate. We Americans, he said, achieve this strength through widespread public education-education which prepares the citizenry for active participation and simultaneously assures their liberty, The student who has achieved the ideal of Plato and General Bradley, in my opinion, makes a citizen who is easy to lead, but difficult to drive, easy to govern, but impossible to enslave. lf this be true, then we in America are justified in the great faith we have placed in the great American school system, a part of which is our own Community High School. EVERETI' C NICHOLS Illinois State Normal University University of Illinois MA University of Illinois M Ed PllllllIlPHl If our high school our community our state our nation are to meet the challenges with which they are confronted then we must have the best schools and the best educational programs that we can possibly develop. The citizens of our community realize this need and have voted to repair and build to the present structure so that all the youth of Marengoland may have an opportunity to learn and develop their minds and bodies so they may be the best possible persons that they might be. So long as all American Youth have this oppor- tunity which is found nowhere else on this earth, we can be assured that the next and the next and the next Generation will not fail. To those students who are graduating, be thank- ful that you grew up in America, the land of free education. To those who are coming to this school or are returning next year, I bid you welcome and invite you to make the most of the educational op- portunities that you will find here in this beautiful and yet to be improved educational edifice, dedi- cated to the democratic concept of adequate educa- tional opportunities for all.

Mayor 4 FHA A .J .'.. , X ,U HlS1URU UF On September 7, 1947, sixty-four students en- tered Marengo High to begin their Freshman year. The principal of the school was Mr. E. A. Anderson. The advisors for the classs were Miss Penney, Miss Thompson and Mr. Boies. The first two weeks were hectic for the Fresh- men, for they received much punishment from the Sophomores and upper classmen. The initiation ended on Friday of the second week with an initiation party, which was held in the evening. The Freshies chose as their officers, Clayton Fox, president, Bill Becklinger, vice-president, Lois Davis, secretary, and Carlene Griebel, treasurer. When Homecoming arrived, the Freshmen elected Shirley Stokes to be their queen in the fes- tivities. The Freshmen had the distinction of winning first prize for their class float. Two parties were given by the Freshmen for the whole school. One, a Sweater Hop was held in De- cember and the other, a Box Social was held in April. Six classmen were elected to the House of Rep- resentatives and three were elected to the Senate. At the beginning of the Sophomore year, Bill Pingel was elected president, Don Larson, vice-presi- dent, Shirley Stokes, secretary, and Clayton Fox, treas- urer. Class advisors were Miss Penney, Mrs. Husfeldt and Mr. Boies. Eight members of the class left at the beginning of the Sophomore year, and ten left during the year. Three members were added to the class. Four seats were held in the House and four in the Senate by the Sophomores. Pat Atherton was elected queen of the class in the Homecoming events. Two parties were given for the whole school during the year. One was held in September in the form of an initiation party for the incoming fresh- men. The other party was given in February. Its title was Sleigh Dance. When the Class of '51 became Juniors, they gained the name of upperclassmen. They let every- one know it, tool Officers elected were Bill Pingel, president, Ken Van Hagen, vice-president, Darlene Ratcliff, secre- tary and Pat Atherton, treasurer. Four seats were the Senate, three in the House, and one in the CLHSS Ul 51 Supreme Court and Cabinet by the Juniors. The class advisors were Miss Penney, Mr. Boies, Mrs. Husfeldt and Mr. Teal. Mr. E. C. Nichols was principal of M.C.H.S. Seven members left the class and one joined the class. The Class of '51 again had the distinction of winning first prize on their Homecoming float on which rode their queens, Pat Atherton and Juanita Ra . Y This class had the opportunity of presenting a play. The play that they chose was a mystery-comedy entitled Hobgoblin House. A lovely Junior-Senior Prom was sponsored by the Juniors. The banquet was held at the Marengo Community Center. The dance was given at the Syca- moreCountryClub with Al Raymond's band of Rock- ford furnishing the music for the gala affair. The theme of the event was Hawaiian. When the Class of '51 became Seniors, they elected Ken Van Hagen, president, Ted Kometani, vice-president, Barbara Watkins, secretary, and Dar- lene Ratcliff, treasurer. Clayton Fox was president of the Student Government. Five students were elected to the House and four to the Senate. Class advisors were Mr. Boies and Miss Nicewander. This year, the Senior class of the Class of '51 earned the grand prize for their float in the Home- coming parade. They had as their queen Geraldine Lungstrom and Jerry Fiepke as their king. Jerry was crowned King at the Homecoming dance. The Seniors had the job of giving the Winter Formal. This they did very successfully. lt was held at the Masonic Temple in Marengo on January 20. George Edwards' band furnished the music for the event. The dance was entitled MarshmaIlow Whirl. ln the spring a class play was given. It was en- joyed by all. The high school days drew to a close for the Class of '51 with Commencement exercises being held June 1 in the high school auditorium. CLASS MOTTO By living to learn, we learn to live CLASS FLOWER White roses CLASS COLORS Maroon and silver Y . px Q if -1- 5 CLHSS PRUPHECU Here it is in the year of l96l and we are at the reunion of the class of '5l. lt seems like ten very short years but we notice many changes. At the head table we see the speaker of the evening, Professor David Boies. Seated next to him is Casanova Ken Van Hagen, who is still looking around. We also notice Rev. Roger Olson and his wife lthe former Joan Montgomeryl. Also seated at the head table is the famous hunter and explorer, Ben Dailey, who has just returned from an expedition into deepest Africa. On his return trip he brought back Giggles Gustafson, who has spent quite some time there learning native dances. Seated at the next table are the famous Mink Kings, Roger Anderson, Howard Billings, Fred Anderson and Ed Kanaly. With them is Don Shearer, who is head basketball coach at Bradley University and Ted Kometani, the reknowned interpreter for the United Nations. Unable to attend is Dorthy Beebe, who would rather stay home and watch Bill Becklinger give wrestling lessons over tele- vision. Lyle Krause, MKM movie photographer, has taken time out from his movie production, Duel in the Moon, to film our re- union. Through his camera he catches a picture of the girls' basket- ball team, the Shooting Squaws, who are touring the country doing exhibition games. They include such familiar faces as: Betty Dunker, Dulcie Dunker, Darlene Ratcliff, Joann Giertz, Beatrice Tessendorf and Geraldine Lungstrom. We hear organ music in the background and discover that Stanley Kozial has finally shown his hidden talent for music. Looking over his shoulder is Captain Barb Watkins of the Woman's Air Force. On hand in case of an accident we notice Joanne Hauri and Marian Wilson, both doing very well in the field of nursing. And we hear rumors that Marian is soon to be appointed as head of the National Red Cross. Coming into the spotlight now is the original Barbershop Quintet: Frank Mack, Charles Beverly, Lloyd Haseman, Gerald Lungstrom and Cuddles Kugler, the director. They are singing a special number, The Anniversary Song for the family table- Quinton Juviland and the former Dorothy Gehrke, Jackie and Dave Miller, Pat and Clayton Fox, Lill and Bill Pingel and Nancy Lueck and her husband. Baby-sitting for the married couples are Mariorie Wiedner and Evalyn Thompson, who are the owners of a very profitable baby-sitting agency. Carlene Griebel and Shirley Stokes have been delayed with some last minute business at their Lonely Hearts Club. Carol Driver, a featured skater at Ronnie Lipinsky's Pink Dink Roller Rink, could not attend because she is giving a com- mand performance for the King of Peruvia, who is none other than Jerry Fiepke. We notice little signs on the tables which say All beef donated by the Pollock and Tomlin Beef Ranches. Upon in- vestigating further, we find that Bill Pollock and Gene Tomlin own a chain of beef ranches throughout Kansas and Nebraska and very generously offered us a couple steers for the reunion. After talking over old times with all our classmates we finally settle down to enioy an evening of entertainment with the best class ever to graduate from good old M.C.H.S. T1 AVA S ff a- , ' Sa ClHSS will We, the class of '5l, city of Marengo, school of Marengo Community High, state of Illinois, being of sound minds and memories, do hereby make, publish and declare this to be our last will and testament, hereby revoking any will or wills here- tofore made by us. First, we leave all the good time and happiness we have had at M.C.H.S. to all remaining and incoming students. .lerry Fiepke leaves his big broad shoulders to Normie Pollock. Fred Anderson, Howie Billings and Ed Kanaly leave their rabbit feed-i ing to Monroe Smith, Wayne Kolberg and John Duyne. Roger Anderson leaves all his umpteen occupations to John Kitchen. Lowell Kugler leaves his cuddly ways to LaVona Thomas. Clayton Fox leaves his long trips to town to brother Dave in hopes that he has more powers of resistance. Stanley Kozial leaves his driv- ing-ahem-ability to John Henning. Lyle Krause leaves his flash bulbs to any amateur photographer running around school.
