ryn 1Ue 1949 M oline, Illinois 9 ntnxu u tUMi . . . As long as man has been in existence, he has been trying to improve himself. This statement is proved by the Ages through which the world has advanced — the Stone Age, the Copper Age, the Iron Age, and now the Atomic Age. If we are to live in this advancing world, we must broaden our minds and hearts to meet its ever increasing demand for men and women of knowledge. The graduates of the January and June classes of 1949 will come to realize that their school life was more carefree and simple than they ever imagined, compared with the many problems they face away from the protection of home and school. Through the many clubs and social functions of school life, we learn to live together and be tolerant toward one another. To broaden this attitude until it becomes world- wide is the dream of mankind. As we review this past year, the last in high school for some of us, let ' s make note of our mistakes, and resolve that we will try to make our world a better one in which to live through what we have learned and shall learn in the years to come.

The students of the D.E. class meet for two hours a day in school, and are required to work at least fifteen hours a week in some business concern. During National Education Week the class had a downtown window display representing our high school in the field of Distri- butive Education. The D.E. float, decorated to portray the struggle be- tween the Plow City Boys and the River Kings, won second place in the M Men ' s Day Parade. Pictures of employers and employees were taken at the various business houses and shown at a banquet for the students and their employers. Miss Ruth Vertrees is the sponsor of this club.

Compiling material for their merchandise man- uals is a big job. One of the larger projects for the year was the making of a store lay-out. Each student drew a floor plan of the type of store he or she would like to own in the future. At Christmas time the D.E. Class has a course in the art of gift wrapping. Here are some of the students wrapping packages and making table centerpieces. This Christmas display was made using most of the packages which the students wrapped.

The 70 musicians and 11 majorettes have worked before and after school hours in order to work up half-time formations for the football games. One of these was Say It With Music during which a lyre, a top, and a teapot were formed. The crowd sang I ' m a Little Teapot during the latter formation. At the Rock Island game they formed the half-time score, and at the Tilden game on Armistice Day a shield, a flag, and three crosses were formed. At other games they outlined the date, a football and the initials of our opponents. During the basketball season, the Senior High Band al- ternated with the Junior High bands in keeping up our spirits during the tension between games and during half-times. The Annual Concert was presented on April 6 at which the first division soloists were presented. These hard-working musicians presented a total of thirty-two performances this year. OndteAbia The Moline High School and Communi ty College Orchestra has had a very successful season. Besides playing at all the plays and at Commence- ment exercises, the orchestra presented its first All Orchestra Concert on May 20. The program consisted of various concert numbers and selections by their contest-winning soloists. As a club, the orchestra sponsored the dance after the Moline-Galesburg game on February 25, 1949. They also have built up their treasury fund by selling tags for the Moline-East Moline games. Standing: B. Allen, C. Sollo, L. Smith, B Malmstead. Seated: S. Freeman, S Johnson. B. Sandstrom, J.

They also sang at the Commencement exercises and Baccalaureate services for both the June and January divisions. CHRISTMAS VESPERS The thirteenth annual Christ- mas Program was presented on December 12, 1948, and was enjoyed by all who attended. 0 te NUfld of Melody The eighth annual One Night of Melody, directed by Miss Margaret Becker, was presented by the Moline Community College and Senior High Choir on January 20, 1949. The choir, singing the Polka from Schwanda with Bill and Ruth Schilling providing a two-piano accompaniment opened the program. The next scene, laid in a unique record shop in which the records came to life, featured such able perform- ers as Beverly Malmstead, Jackie Elander, and the members of the Swing Band. A romantic setting and ro- mantic songs ably describes the next scene during which such songs as Cecelia, Confess, That Certain Party, and It ' s Only a Paper Moon were sung. The Boys ' Quartette pro- vided entertainment between the acts while portraying the old-time Side-Show Min- strels. Down among the shelter- ing palms of old Hawaii was the setting for the last scene. The guests from a steam- ship entertained the inhab- itants of this island with Boom-fa-ra-la, My Little Grass Shack, Down Among the Sheltering Palms, and On a Slow Boat to China, and many others. As always, One Night of Melody was also one night of enjoyment. Standing: C. Jacobs, S. John- son, N. Sanders, B. Johnson, B Kfalmstead, M Scott, P. Lundahl, M. Wahlheim, E. Schultze, B. Bohman.

Rehearsing twice weekly, the girls have found it possible to put on sparkling shows before various social and political groups. Proof of this statement is the fact that they have always been called the “happy girls ' from Moline high. The girls, accompanied by Bill Schil- ling again this year, contributed their talents to “One Night of Melody and were outstanding in the Swedish songs and hombo dance.

The lively ping-pong room, with red, orange, blue, and green hands on the walls, the noisy booths lining the coke room, with candy, pop, and sandwiches galore, and the dimly lighted dance room, with music hot and sweet, blaring through it, that ' s the REK. Run by a student committee, and ably sponsored by Mrs. Harry Frieden and her adult board, this youth center has proved to be a second home to many MHS students. A membership bought in the fall en- titles a student to come to the REK any Wednesday, Friday, or Saturday night, and sometimes more often. Special dances are held on big occasions, when an orchestra is engaged and an admission fee is charged. The REK had a completely new paint job and some new furniture last fall, and we ' re all proud of it. The new committee was chosen then also. The REK schedule doesn ' t begin or end with the school year. Except for the month of August, the REK has been open continually for several years. During the summer, the hours are longer and the REK is open more often. You can be sure to meet your friends at the REK.

The plot revolved around the growing-up of teen-age Midge and her attempts to attract the attention of Buzz who, in turn, was very much interested in her older sister, Virginia. Carolyn, Virginia ' s sophisticated friend, further complicated matters by falling in love with Keith, Virginia ' s current interest.

In one of the best comedies ever written, father, Clarence Day, opposes mother ' s ideas, and also softens to her many whims. This red-haired family is one of the laughable, loveable, and typically American families of the time. The romance was supplied by the Day ' s oldest son Clarence and Mary Skinner, a visiting cousin. The baptism of father, his raging over visiting relatives, the money-making ventures of John and Clarence Jr. and life with father in general were enjoyed by all.

The path of love is never smooth, and Mrs. Bennett ' s blundering ways were an obstacle not easily surmounted. The cast effectively presented the finely drawn characters from Miss Jane Austen ' s novel. Music, comedy, singing, and dancing were together again this spring in the The Forty-Niners ' the annual ADC-Fellowship Production which was enjoyed by capacity crowds on April 21 and 23. The tenth performance of its kind at MHS, the show combined minstrel and farce based on the gold rush days of 1849 in the wild west. The first act consisted of satirical interpretations of western horse operas and medi- cal practice of the day, exaggerated scenes in one of the mining town cafes which were so popular during that era, and a dancing horse, Snow White and the Seven United Mine Workers. A minstrel show, held for the purpose of celebrating the one hundredth anniversary of the discovery of gold in California was the setting for the second part of the program. The soloists in both sections were excellent and the 120 seniors who took part and let their hair down had as much fun as they reached the end of week ' s of hard work as did the audience who watched them.

The twenty-seventh annucd M Men ' s Day, November 5, 1948, was a dreary, rainy day until just before parade time in the afternoon. The sun was shining brightly as we stepped from the auditorium, where the king and queen of the day had just been crowned. Don Henss and Joy Shipley were king and queen, attend- ed by Kenny Samuelson and Betty Bohman, Raymond Tschopp and Jackie Elander and A1 Shipley and Marilyn Scott. This parade was one of Moline High ' s finest. The king and queen in a snappy black con- vertible followed the majorettes and the high school band, with the attendants, also in • convertibles, coming next. The floats, inter- spersed with the junior high school bands and floats, made up the rest of the parade. The judges, viewing the pa- rade from different places along its path, awarded Harriet Johnson and her baby carriage first prize of ten dollars. Second, third, fourth, and fifth prizes went to The Future I i • • • ms Distributors, Zoe Anderson, Lettermen ' s Club, and the Walking Group of Clinton Football Players, respectively. The prize money was given by the Moline Athletic Association. The M Men had their annual banquet before the game after which, as is traditional, they were guests at the football game. The welcom- ing speech was well taken care of by Queen Joy after she had been presented a bouquet of chrysanthemums. The royal maids of the day passed in review while the royal masters dressed for the game. After a thrilling victory over the River Kings, the conquered and conquerors made their way to the high school gym for one of the ever- popular after-game dances. At the Crown Capers, sponsored by the G.A.A., the king and queen were re- crowned and started the ball rolling by pairing off and dancing while the crowd watched. Everyone was happy. Well, why not? We won our game and all had fun. M % L « - : f • j 4 i - First Row: J. Allen, P. Sellers, R. Tschopp, Treasurer in the Fall; W Anderson, M. Bloom- berg. Second Row: J. West, A.

After a tough spring football practice and a rebuilding in the Maroon line, Galesburg proved no opposition to the Drakemen, as Moline, under the leadship of Don Henss and Austin Duke, took the measure of the Silver Streaks 39-12. With a sterling display of hard- running, Jack Liljeberg nailed a starting position at right half with a touchdown. Outplaying a bigger Freeport line, Moline gained a 6-0 decision. Kenny Samuelson, using his big frame to good advantage, blocked a Freeport punt on the Pretzels ' 5 yard-line. As the ball bounced off Kenny ' s chest, A1 Shipley, Maroon flanker, pounced on it for Moline ' s only score. The game was a see-saw battle all the way. Moline ' s forward wall improved with every game during the season and gave the best account of itself at Kewanee, holding the hapless Boilermakers to a mere 47 yards. The 40-0 Paul M. Erickson Ray Tschopp Jack Hinde - tackle - - fullback - - end - Tom Beling A1 Shipley Jack Liljeberg “ tackle - - ©nd - - halfback- victory was so decisive that it would be hard to pick any one player as the star, but Fred Eberhardt and Ray “hatchet man Tschoop gave a good exhibition of hard running as they made one touchdown apiece. The Maroon reserves played almost the entire last half. Ah, sweet revenge, as Moline defeated traditional foe, Rock Island, 32-7. Coaches Drake, Vavrus, and Swanson were beaming from ear to ear as Tschopp scored two touchdowns, while Liljeberg, Henss, and Duke rounded out the scoring with one apiece. Moline ' s line play was superb with Jim VanDaele sumarining Islander backfield men time and again. Ray Tschopp broke the 7-7 tie at the beginning of the second half by falling on the Maroon kick-off in the Islanders ' end zone. East St. Louis proved little competition for the powerful Drakemen, as the Maroons rolled up a 37-13 victory. Duane Sandler turned in the best run of the game on a 67 yard return of an intercepted pass. Austin Duke romped 63 yards for the first score. Elton Ehen Brian Baldwin Ted Mullen - tackle - - guard - - quarterback - Duane Sandler - halfback- Fred Eberhardt - quarterback - Leonard Zelnio - tackle - That old Davenport jinx was in its true form at Brady St. Stadium as the Maroons lost a heart-breaker 14-6. One of the deciding factors of the defeat was “General Henss ' leg injury incurred in the East St. Louis game. Don came in only once, but during this time he led the Maroon and White to a touchdown, Austin Duke carrying the ball. Gene Moeller in- tercepted a Moline aerial late in the fourth quarter and romped over for the winning tally. Moline gained possession of the Blackman trophy, awarded each year to the winner of the Moline-East Moline game, by defeating the Panthers 42-13. The touchdown parade con- tinued as usual, but the bright spot in the Maroon victory was the extra point combination of Paul M. Erickson kicking and Dick Abrahamson holding, converting for 6 straight extra points. Tom Beling, reserve tackle, moved thru numerous times to drop East Moline ' s passer for long losses. Compiling the biggest score of the ' 48 season, Moline romped over Clinton 48-7. Moline, led by Duke, Tschopp, Liljeberg, Shipley, and Hicks, piled up 323 yards rushing. Six more Dick Abrahamson - tackle - Ronnie Hicks - quarterback - Ken Moore - end - P«rry Seller Austin Duke Ronnie Johnson - guard - _ halfback- _ tackle - extra points were added by the now famous combination of Erickson and Abrahamson. Duke scored on the second play of the game with a 45 yard jaunt to Clinton pay dirt. A game that had all the earmarks of a Golden Gloves tournament was the Tilden Tech- Moline game. The Chicago sluggers bowed before the Drakemen 31-0. Don Henss, star Maroon quarterback, unleased a passing attack that carried for 147 yards. General Don completed 7 of 14 passes. A1 Shipley was on the receiving end of a 43 yard touchdown heave. Kenny Sam- uelson played his greatest game for the Maroons as he backed up the line in fine fashion. Moline placed six men on the Northwest all-star team, Don Henss, Ray Tschopp, A1 Shipley, Wayne Schweinberger, Jerry Schmidt, and Kenny Samuelson. Don Henss made two all-state teams and was voted the most valuable player. Jerry Schmidt was elected honorary captain. Moline gained a total of 2,981 yards to their foes’ 982. Austin Duke was the top Maroon ball oarrier with a 6.8 yard average per try. Moline racked up a grand total of 281 points.

Gene Sharpe, a returning letterman from last year ' s team, was the mainstay of the squad this season. He lost only three times, two of which were in state tourney competition. The team traveled more this season than in the past and also racked up a number of victories against tough opponents. Eight boys qualified for state tournament com- petition at Champaign. They were: Gene Sharpe, Baxter Dunbar, Charles Jasper, John Ontiverous, Nick Viviani, Dick Croy, Dick Lopez, and Dale Buller. Baxter Dunbar and Gene Sharpe advanced to the semi-finals before they were eliminated. A growing interest in wrestling, now three years old at MHS, was shown this year by the large number of boys who turned out for the sport. First Row: D. Moore, D. Carlson, W. Nash, B. Mills, J.

The tumbling team, more commonly known as the MHS gym team, entertained the high school basketball audiences several times this past year. Their perform- ances are marked by the grace, form and timing which Coach Herb Klier has instilled into the boys. This group of gymsters work out equally well on the trampoline, the parallel bars, mats and other tumbling equipment. Increasing in popularity each year, tumbling, a sport for everyone, serves as a teacher of body co-ordination and body building and helps keep the boys physically fit. feo4fA r Jennii Coach Norm Ziebell had his work cut out for him when it came to choosing the boys ' tennis team at MHS this spring season. Tennis is a sport that has grown by leaps and bounds and is continuing along that path this year with a large number reporting for positions on the squad. Veterans from last year ' s team are Bill Schilling, Bob McWilliams, John Horvath, and Jim Mills. Bob Richards, top racket swinger at MHS for three years, via the graduation route, left a big gap to be filled. With both juniors and sophomores compet- ing with the seniors for berths on the squad, the Maroon netsters should have another good season. — Qinb ' 7e uUl Although most of the girls from last year ' s team have graduated, the squad will be headed by veteran racket swingers Betty Hasson and Tony Gustafson. Coach Norm Ziebell should have a fine team as there are many promising tennis players in the junior and sophomore classes. There aren ' t many sports in which girls have a chance to compete against other schools. Tennis, however, affords them this opportunity and the MHS girls in the past have taken advantage of it. MHS has had some fine teams and this season should be just as profitable as any in the past. njaok Standing: Leonard Zelnio, Chuck Koivun, Tom Garrison, Lon Kuehl, Jack Tindall, Sonny Anderson, Dick Lewis, Kneeling: Jim Murphy, Walter Wiborg, Kenny Moore, and Ronnie Lyons. Under the coaching of Jack Foley, the track schedule and season look promising. A number of lettermen are returning this season, namely Walter Wiborg, Lon Kuehl, Bill Jardine, Bob Gordon, and Fred McGlaughlin. With the addition of a number of sophomores, the squad should come through in fine style this year. The boys will be pointing toward winning the Northwest Conference title and the Davenport and Geneseo Relays, a worthwhile goal for any track team. With the large number of candidates reporting this season, the unim- pressive records of the past few years may be forgotten. Until this spring, the MHS has been handicapped because just a limited number of boys came out for track. G ' VO i-QoAMtt ' Uf, Lon Kuehl. Bill Jardine, and Walter Wiborg This year ' s squad, under the direction of Jack Foley who just returned to the MHS coaching staff this fall, won a number of places and scored many points in their meets, but failed to walk off with top honors in any of them. Leading the parade of cross-country runners last fall were Ralph Seanson, Bill Jardine, and Dale Buller. There were five boys who wen letters, the above three and Lon Kuehl and Bruce Trevor. The best achievements of the squad were fourth place in the Geneseo Relays and a third place in the Northwest Conference Meet. A number of boys reported for the squad, and the prospects are bright for an even better team next year. Standing: Coach Carl Ekblad. Gene Larson, Dick Seeber, Bob Schrempf, Don Faust, Dick Sultman, Larry Ferry, Don Lucas, and Wayne Reeb. Kneeling: Don Heene and Tom Railsback. QoU V A sport that has really reached its peak at MHS is golf under the able direction of Coach Carl Ekblad. The golf team last year was tops and should have another good season with four of last year ' s stellar performers, Gene Larson, Wayne Reeb, Don Lucas, and Bob Schrempf, returning. The outlook for the team was enhanced by the addition of sophomores from Coolidge and John Deere. Several Maroon golfers went to the state meet last year at Cham- paign and Coach Ekblad hopes to send more boys this year.

With the return of ten lettermen, the pros- pects are bright and this year ' s nine will be pointing toward the Northwest Conference and Quad-City titles. The Maroons have a number of out of town games including Monmouth, Galesburg, Kewanee, and Quincy. Lost from last year ' s regulars are Bill Mitton, Perry Loding, Howie Sands, and Bob Stablien. Lettermen returning to the Maroon nine are Dick Abraham- son, Duane Sandler, Brian Baldwin, Jack Liljeberg, Ralph Masengarb, Ronnie Hicks, ferry Allen, Jim Hartzell, and Fred McGlaughlin.

The Maroons copped the Northwest Conference trophy for the second straight year with a 7-3 record losing to Monmouth, Kewanee and Galesburg on the latt er teams ' home court. Moline also won the Quad-City crown with five wins and a Davenport loss. The road to a sweet sixteen berth was anything but easy as the Maroons had to beat Geneseo, Rock Island, and East Moline to win the Regional tournament held at Rock Island. Ken Moore and George Hoke were the BIG noise in the Maroon attack as Moore racked-up 21 points against Rocky High and Hoke tipped in 19 points against the Hilltoppers. The following week found Moline playing host to Kewanee and Morrison in the Moline Sectional tournament. Captain A1 Shipley, along with Ralph Masengarb, stalled out both games to win the Sectional trophy and a trip to Champaign. The Maroons, under the able coaching of Norm Ziebell, won their first game of the state tournament defeating West Rockford by a score of 64 to 38. As the Maroons advanced into the quarter-finals, they found themselv es under a great handicap as far as height was concerned, when they bumped up against Nashville ' s towering Hornets. The game was close from start to finish and had a few of the breaks gone Moline ' s way, the Maroons might have gone on to the finals. Nashville defeated the Maroons 33 to 31. Ralph Masengarb Don Landis Duane Sandler Jim XettUr Bob Allen Bonnie Hicks Coach Norm Ziebell, who came to the Moline coaching staif this season from Morton of Cicero, coached the Maroons to a 21 to 9 game season. Working under many handicaps, the Maroon mentor did a fine job in molding one of the best Moline teams in a number of years. The Maroon cause was greatly enhanced by the addition of sophomore George Hoke to the varsity squad late in the season. Hoke rebounded well and showed promise of things to come with a neat .511 percentage mark for field goals. Bob Gordon was the big gun in the Maroon attack all year as he compiled 418 points during the season. Bob was also tops in the free throw department with a .685 percentage mark. The lanky forward ' s shooting ability will be greatly missed next year. Coach Ziebell hopes for an even better season next year with five of his tournament squad returning. They are Ron Hicks, Austin Duke, Ken Moore, and George Hoke plus some fine B-squad and sophomore material. Duane Sandler, set shot artist, graduates in January leaving a big gap. Those leaving the Maroon line-up will be A1 Shipley, Ralph Masengarb, Bob Gordon, Gene Larson, and Jim Kettler. The playing of all these boys will long be remembered in the annals of Moline High basketball. B-SQUAD Standing: Ronnie Lyons and Ioe Lopez.

The income of many elderly couples, whose lifetime earnings have been invested in stocks of these firms, would be stopped or drastically reduced. Security plans of many school teachers, factory workers, clerks, doctors and dentists would be wrecked. Their purchase of stocks has not often been a speculative venture to get rich overnight. Rather, theirs has been an investment in the American way ... an investment for the future of their own hard-earned savings. There ' s another angle too. If the average person ... in Moline or elsewhere . . . could not be reasonably sure of receiving a fair return for his money, would he invest it in stocks of industrial firms? Would he provide the funds required for plants, machinery, research and product development . . . the funds which make it possible for industry to provide employment for thousands of citizens in our community?

Like most little boys, he can’t wait to grow up. The thing he wants most in the world is to be a farmer just like his dad. Old-fashioned farming, with its never end- ing toil, often shattered this childhood dream — sent the boy off to the city to seek his for- tune. Today, it’s easier to keep him on the farm. Better crops and improved farming practices have boosted yields and farming profits. Modern John Deere power equipment has taken over much of the muscle work, and chopped hours from the old dawn-to-dusk work day. No wonder more and more farm boys are staying with the land — realizing a childhood ambition to follow in their fathers ' footsteps. This is a good sign. These young farmers will hasten the fuller mechanization of our agri- culture, pioneer new farming practices, and bolster vital food production. Yes, labor-saving, profit-making farm equip- ment is helping to raise our most valuable crop — young Americans who love the land. In such hands the future of our agriculture, and of America, will be secure.
