The five division pages, therefore, are sketches of different parts of the building. The name MOMENTS, which was suggested by A sopho- more, Dwight Dennis, seemed especially appropriate since the yearbook naturally attempts to set forth an account of the passing of time throughout the school year.

S PERI TE DE T J. B. STOUT, A. B., M. A. The community of llomence in the fall of 1934 secured the services of Superintendent J. B. Stout, who had already supervised the construction of two high school buildings. This experience enabled him to act as a competent adviser during the construction of our new building. His understanding of human nature and his abiliw to cope with the individuel problems of the students make him not only e good administrator but a friendly guide to the entire student body. BO RD O17 EDUCATIO N. P. Jensen Secretary E. E. Chipman William W. Porter President This group of men bore the brunt of making possible our beautihml new high school building. To them we extend our sincere thanks for their unceasing efforts and tireless devotion that lflomence boys and girls might have a modern plant in which to pursue their high school education. Messrs. Porter, Jensen, and Chipman served throughout the two and one-half years of planning and construction of the building. Dr. Gibson was replaced by Fr. Tall.ma.n in April 1936 and Mr. Bukowski by Mr. Parish in April 1957. It is difficult for us tc realize just how much time these men gave to visiting other schools, to making trips to Chicago, to Public Works Administration office, to conferences with architects and contractors and other duties too numerous to mention. At the same time they were responsible for maintaining a high school plant in an antiquated building. With the completion of our new plant, building problems have been reduced to a minimum, though some remain, particularly those of completing unfinished portions. The important school problem now is to inaugurate and maintain a program that will meet the needs of our students and of our community. In a complex world of rapid change new demands, therefore, are made upon the intelligence, time, and energy of board members. Theirs is indeed a difficult task. As students we appreciate the sympathetic attitude of the board toward the attempts of the faculty and students to work out our common problems on A democratic basis. F.A. Bukowski Varnum Parish Joe Tallman Dr. E. G. Gibson--January 51, 1958.--'Something attempted, something dfvne, has earned a night's repose. 5 The list of those who keep the school running smoothly would not be complete without three people, the first of whom is Miss Irene Hardy, office secre- tary. She holds a very responsible position, for it is she who keeps the records, handles the money, and is a general source of information concerning school matters. She also records the minutes of the meet- ings of the Board of Education. Her numerous other duties vary from typing and mimeographing the school paper to making out excuses for absences. She was an invaluable aid in making the typewritten copy for the annual this year. Messrs. Clerk and Geliuo, better known as 'Earl' and John, keep the building in excellent condition. Although their methods of work are modern and scien- tific, they are constantly on the lookout for better ways of keeping the building in order. Their friendly interest in all school affairs and their good nature make them popular with the whole school. 6 LYLE R. BROWN, A. B.

Said the cadet to the guest, It is the nicest school With which a town was ever blessed. It was built by a Porter In the Parish of Momence, 'With e Tiffin and a Chipman And a Jensen watching expense. This is His office which we dread Whenever we are tardy, Because you see, the office force Is both Stout and Hard . Across we have theTFoEceep:lng room Where it's Ada Immel, 'nuff said, Here financial Hzards bloom, And learn to stay out of the red. Down here is the Typing room Where racing is such hm, With time you must be ahead And never be be-Heinsen. Here is the Nortfqfp'-ir room, Social Science we study, And if work to you spells gloom Don't enter into here, buddy. This is the library-study hall, Where we study, one and all. Here is Lil edahl's Physics room Where music I xed with rare perhnne And here French verbs do make us sad, Dramatics keep us blithe, And if the reason you would know Then just ask our Miss Snythe. Downstairs Hungerford rafmupreme While boys weigh out the corn, And learn to test the milk and cream, Future farmers--city born. Next the manual training room You can see for loolclng Why the 'boys all cry, 'Give us Liberty or cooking. Now here is our gymnasium Where we always play, Miss T. says, 'Take U-Dell' the boys, I'l1 take my G. A. L' Now here the girls take Home Ee. And learn to cook and sup, You' ll never find a speck 'Cause all is Liohty'd up. Milton, ChauceFEd Shakespeare Are with Miss Coontz all the year, And here is where we meet our doom For this is the English room. And in the last room down the line Math will never get us down, Because the study of every sign Is put before us, done up Brown. And did you notice, passinflffough what a clean school we've got? The students will explain to you We've Earl and Johnny on the spot. 8 P 4 ,XJ Y I y iw In I CLAS SES Illia IIIIIIIIIIIII v WMLNPIHIIIIII F 51 L' 1, 7 A .

BACK ROY.: Mr. Stout, Carl Buck, Jean cchoc-5 nv7a7l'd, -Robert Gray, Eileen Jarvis, Mr. Liljedahl, Leonard Tomaski, Viola Osborn, Donald Johnson The School Council of M. C. H. S. is a.n organization composed of the superintendent representing the board of education, a representa- tive of the faculty, and a student representative fusually the presi- dentj of each organization within the school. The Council meets weekly and serves as a mediator and clearing house for problems confronting the school. Its aim is to bring the students, teachers, and principal into closer understanding and cooperation. In the course of duties and responsibilities which fall upon it there is that of helping determine school policies. The council mem- bers as representatives of all phases of school life earnestly try to decide the best policies for the school to follow. But their task is not only one of maldng policies but also of securing the cooperation of the student-body in carrying out these policies. In the event that a proposed action would affect the entire school routine, as in the oase of Senior Control Day which was tried for the first time this year, the matter is voted upon by the students, faculty, and board of education. The council has been in operation for two years with Ardis Mathieu as its president and Mr. Liljedahl as faculty' representative. Delegates to the State Convention of School Councils held at New Trier High School included Viola Osborn, Anthony Prairie, Donald Johnson, and Robert Seybert who also presided over one of the panel discussions. Delegates to the District Convention held at Gilman included Ardis Mathieu and Eleanor Mcllurrough as well as Eileen Jarvis and Viola Osborn who were speakers at the meeting. Eileen Jarvis was vice-presi- dent of the District during 1957-1958, and Eleanor Mchiurrough was elected secretary for the coming year. The -next District meeting will be held at M. C. H. S. These meetings provide an opportunity for councils to find out what other schools are doing and exchange ideas concerning school government. The School Council has become an important part of school life not only because of its influence in school activities but because of the valuable experience it gives students in representative govern- ment. 20 CADETS FIRST RUW: Lola Moore, Edward Bennett, Betty Metcalf, David s Imnel, Sponsor, Robert Gray, Captain, Velma Estill, Lieutenant Captain, Ward Mills, Lucille Hansen, John Rehmer, Shirley Goodlmecht.

The cadet system of Momence Community High School was organized in 1957 to provide a system of hall control in the new school building. Four cadets are used each period, and a cadet serves for one free period each day. Before s student is eligible for cadet duty he must have attended high school for one year, have a C average, be neat in appearance, trustworthy, and possess the quality of leadership. The duties of a member of the squad are numerous. He must greet visitors to the building, check lockers, keep the halls quiet and orderly, sign passes, regulate the lighting system in the hall, and give infomation to anyone desiring it. OATH OF THE CADETS As a cadet, I will to the best of nv ability, try to be able to do these things: I will be courteous at all times, I will not lost my temper, and I will be level-heeded in cases of emergencies. I will be prompt, and be at my post at the stated time, remaining there until my successor arrives. I will observe my duty strictly, I will not allow my friends special privileges. I will be willing to help those students who need aid, I will give my services gladly. I will at all times be mindful of my appearance, that I may be a good example for my school. I will be especially careful while on duty. I will be carehxl to use only the best English, since s. person is often judged by his manner of speaking. I will be careful of ny attitude when greeting strangers and visitors. I will show them every consideration. I will maintain at least a 'C' average, I will strive to obtain even a better average than I have at present. If I do not perform my duty as I have pledged, I will be subject to removal from my post, I will give the post to someone who is capable of performing these services. 21 LIBR RY CLUB FIRST RCW: Norene Smedlund, Lola Moore, Ardis Hemphill, Secretary-Treasurer, Hola Usborn, Presidentg Eileen Jarvis, Beth Murphy, Etta Jaenke.

Consequently this year the librarians with the aid of Miss Northrup, their sponsor, organized the Library Club. The Club meets once a month to become better acquainted with our library and library systems in general. The educational program consists of learning the decimal classification of the library, how to use the card files and catalogs, and a study of the Reader's Guide to Periodical Literature. Part of the meetings are concerned with exchanging and discussing problems of librarianship. Book reviews also have their place. Of course the social side of the Club is not neglected. As a result of these activities the library runs more smoothly. The members of the Club profit personally, for they gain some idea of what to expect should they care to continue library work after leaving school. Miss Horthrup's experience and able direction have helped make the initial year of Ure Library Club a successful one. 22 THE PIAN FIRST ROW: Viateur Saindon, Ardis Mathieu, Ruth Goldberg, Norene Smedlund, treasurer?

A group of over thirty Juniors and Seniors interested in the study of dramatics in the fall of 1957 organized into the Thespians. The Club met twice a month during the school year. The meetings were entertaining as well as educational. Studies of the Club included the history of the stage, biographies of famous actors and actresses, plays, the funda- mentals of lighting, stage-settings, and make-up. A make-up contest ftheatrical of coursej proved interesting as well as instructive. The Club presented two short skits for a Thanksgiving assembly pro- granu They hope to do more of this work in the future as our new auditorium with its splendid stage and excellent acoustics is an ideal place for dramatic productions. The Dramatic Club is closely connected with the Speech course which was introduced into our curriculum this year. Miss Smythe, who teaches Speech, also sponsors the Thespians.

The heading was changed to a modernistic version of the new school building, and several members were added to the staff. The quality of the paper was im- proved by more art work and a three instead of two-column page. Students and teachers showed their approval of the changes by staunchly supporting the drive for subscriptions. The Cherry and White aims to entertain as well as to inform, and its purpose has been fulfilled through the able and enthusiastic work of the staff.

T. Liljedahl The Momence School Band, under the baton of Mr. Liljedahl, has completed its fifteenth year as one of the most prominent organizations of the school and community. In their new uniforms, the band members have made numerous appearances. Providing music to spur enthusiasm at pep-meetings, football, and basketball games was an important part of the band's work. But the highlight of the season was the presentation of the annual band con- cert, 'The Band F1-olics of 1958, including special numbers by the German fSchnickel1'ritsJ Band, the Southerners, and the Italian Serenaders. The concert itself definitely proved the fine quality of work which the band had done throughout the year. The Band Mothers' Club financed the participation of the band in the District Contest held at Kankakee. The band also took part in the Annual Kankakee Valley Conference Music Festival held this year at Momence Comznuniqr High School for the first time. The school and the community are justly proud of this fine musical organization. THE GERMAN BAND Ein, nrei, drei, spoil! Umph-pa-pal Unxph-pa-pa!

This group is a new musical organization in the high school and has already made a number of appearances at assembly programs, P. T. A. Meetings, and the Band Frolics of 1958. This fun-loving, wise- craclclng party has played its way into the hearts of all who have heard them. 27 ORCHE THA FIRST ROW: Janet Stout, Secretary, Alice Stout, Phyllis Stout, Vincent Roberts, Frederick Dennison, Beth Murphy, Carroll Christensen, Norene Smedlund, Dorothy Raetz, Betty Metcalf, Phyllis Lucas.

The advancement of the orchestra has been due to the untiring efforts of its director, Mr. Liljedahl, and to the faithful attendance of the thirty members who meet once each week to practice. For four years the orchestra has been one of the leading parts of the high school music department. Its purpose is to encourage an appreciation of good music among the students and give its members the enjoyment of interpreting the music of the masters. The Fourth Annual Concert featured the Violin Quartette composed of Miss Hardy, Janet, Alice, and Phyllis Stout, and solo selections by Miss Hardy, Velma Estill, and Mr. Hungerford. The orchestra participated in the Annual Kankakee Valley Conference Music Festival. Momence Community High School was represented this fall in the Illinois State High School Orchestra by .Alice and Janet Stout. The school orchestra has proved itself an invaluable institution in the curriculum. HEINSEN ' S HARMONY HOUNDS One of the extra-curricular musical organizations of MCHS is Heinsen's Harmony Hounds. This dance orchestra has participated in P. T. A. programs, assemblies, one school dance, and the football banquet. This group also played for the dance which was held after the County Music Festival. Mr. Heinsen is director of the organisation. The personnel is as follows: Eleanor Mcldurrough, Alice Stout, Janet Stout, Carroll Christensen, Vincent Roberts, Leonard Tomaski, Henry Jaenke, Duane Dmton, George Gibson, Mr. Robert Heinsen. 28 GI ,FF C ,UBS FIRST ROW: Norene Smedlund, Velma Estill fSecretaryj3 Doris Stewart, Frances Neibcrt, Ardis eu esidentjg Ruth Snapp Wice-Presidentjg Miss Grimes fDirectorjg louise Hall, Helen Siwicki, Muriel Thorne, Maxine Kurtz, Etta Jeenke, Mary Ann Billings.

The past year has proved a very busy and successful one for the Girls' and Boys' Glee Clubs. The girls practiced diligently each Monday and Tiednesday noon throughout the year, while the boys did their rehearsing during the noon hour on Tuesdays and Thursdays. The two groups collaborated in presenting on December 7 the Operetta 'The Gypsy Rover , a fitting climax to weeks of carehxl direction and faithful rehearsal. This was the first choral production to be presented in the new auditorium, and it was a marked success far exceeding former operettas given with restricted facilities. During the Christmas season the two choruses joined in caroling throughout the town as has been the custom for several years. The Girls' Glee Club presented two numbers at the Annual Orchestra Concert, and the Boys' Chorus sang at the Band Frolic. Both participated in the Kankakee Valley Conference Music Festival, April 22. The Boys' and Girls' Quartettes presented selections for P. T. A. Meetings, Fam Bureau Meetings, and the Baccalaureate Service.

C. H. S. resumed the 'good work where they left it three months before. Lofty seniors felt so important that their hats refused to fit. Infinitesimal and, incidentally, infantile freshmen wore that well-known green look about the gills. Football games, P. T. A., and the Brown-Meneley Assembly high- lighted the month. OCTOBER, 1937 . Octo5er's bright, blue weather held good for the football games and helped the local eleven chalk up two wins, a tie, and a loss. Our wrearers of the green' were seen and heard praying to 'Allah' for immediate a.nd sudden oblivion. An analysis of the cause revealed the imminence of the first six-week SIRIUS. Several would-be Romeos and Juliettes' started a new Thespian Club under Miss Smythe's direction and went about rolling the stage r dramatically. The school hcp and the G. A. A.

Everyone was grateful for at least two things on 'Thanksgiving Day--M. C. H. S. won the first basketball game of the season, and there was a vacation. I The feagre attraction of the month was the operetta, 'Gypsy Rover, produced by the Girls' Glee Club and Boys' Chorus. Geraldine Westaby entertained the school with a lecture on Europe and illustrated her speech with an excellent collection of dolls from every country. Christmas decorations, parties for the faculty and students, caroling, and Santa Claus masquerading pro- claimed the Yule Tide vacation. JANUARY, 1958 With the strains of 'Auld Lang Sync' ringing in their ears, students and teachers resumed their regular course of work. Loyal librarians held an 'open house' to encourage prospective members. Leon Albert, 'hobo supreme, gave an account of his travels for the assembly. Semes- ter examinations were taken, and the records for the first half of the school year were irrevocably closed. FEBRUARY, 1938 e oun Basketball Tournament held the limelight for a short while. Then the Seniors began choosing various committees for the closing activities. Future Farmers exercised their agricultural abilities at the F. F. A. Judging Contest. A group of colored Mississippians presented a musical program of spirituals and some swing numbers with a little trucking for good measure. Everyone joined the I cannot tell a lie' chorus, and otherwise celebrated 'lVashington's birthday by a gala dance and no school. mos, 1938 gh March came in like a lion, school activities compared with the quiet, proverbial lamb--examinations, the Regional Basketball Tournament, homerooms, and the Robert Bowman assembly took place as the month waned. March as well as all MCHS students went out lamb-like on Senior Control Day. APRIL, 1938 I Iprll Pcol's Day meant no foolin' around to the annual staff as they hastened to meet the deadline which fcruel fate, had to coincide with six weeks exams. The Band Frolics of 1938 went down in history with a blare of trumpets and a near blizzard. Douglas Behney represented MCHS in the F. F. A. Oratorical Contest. Future Farmers and Farmerettes flfome Economics girls to the uninformedj held a gay and smmxptious banquet. HCHS was host to the XVC Music Festival.

C. H. S. gridmen of 1957 got off to a poor start by losing early season games to Morocco and Rensselaer, but then they began to improve and went on to finish the schedule with a record of three games won, three lost, and two tied. The team averaged less than 150 pounds per man but managed to hold the 165 pound Dwight squad to a 6-6 tie in the last game of the season. The boys fought off several Dwight threats inside the twenty yard line and then came 'back with a spirited 60 yard march in the last quarter that earned the tie score. Sixteen letters were awarded.

The lightweight football schedule included only three games, but this proved to be sufficient to maintain interest during the entire season. It is hoped that a more complete schedule can be worked out for the light- weights next season. The first game was played at Lowell under lights. There were several costly fumbles that caused the Momence boys to lose 6-0, but the experience gained should prove invaluable, especially to the boys who will make the '38 first team and play in a night game at Watseka. A good example of the importance of seasoning in football was brought to light between halves of this game when the quarterback remarked about having trouble thinking of the plays fast enough and at the right time. A game such as football can probably be learned best in competition with outside opponents when every misplay hurts the team's chances for victory. The boys lost to the Kankakee lights 13-O and then tied Herscher O-O in the last game. Letters awarded to Warren Mitchell, Robert Illmn, Ray Schenk, Howard Cantway, Anthony Prairie, Arnold Bruck, Dariel Xrapf, and Gaylord Jensen. The last six of these men will be returning next year and will make a good nucleus for the '38 squad. 55 B SKETB LL Coach, Cantway, Schenk, Nagle, Prairie, Behney, Saindon, Baechler, Iambert, Wehr, Lahiotte, HEAVYTIEIGHT BASKETBALL The 1957-38 basketball season was a long one filled with one after another.

The book was started at almost the 'eleventh hour' and Lir. Scatterday willingly expended extra time and effort that the pictures n-.ight be finished promptly. Miss Hardy typed all but a few pages of this book. The worst four I claim for my own. The teachers who hxrnished infomation and assisted the staff members in their write-ups also deserve credit. The staff and Hr. Heinsen, as business sponsor, may be congratulated, but the person who spent the may sleep- less nights with me was Mies Smythe. If counted, the number of hours she spent in work and worry would total more than either she or I care to think about. The moments have flown and there is but time to say 'Good luck to the staff of 1939. j 45 , 1 vp.-.' 1,55 . , h ,ml .ap aw .
