Vernon Township High School who, in the armed forces of the United States, are so ably doing their part to preserve our cherished American institutions and freedoms. . ln our dedication photograph we honor the memory of Private Homer Richard Marvel '38, a worthy representative of this group and the first graduate of the school to die of wounds received in combat. He fell on a battlefield in Africa on September l8, l943, and died two days later. For his valor he was posthumously awarded the Medal of the Purple Heart.

A. to the school for use in vocational education. This property, valued at S4l,UOU, provides facilities for training in ma- chine shop, Welding, auto and farm mechanics, foundry, and building trades. Pictured above are students working in the machine shop, an interior View of the foundry, and exteriors of four of the buildings. 15 16 Bama! of L' First Row: Iohn I. Mcinion, Paul M.

Changnon, and assist- ants Arthur Milward and Ira Winn make up the coaching staff of the Rams. Mr. Changnon, head coach, came from West Frankfort, where he had made an envi- able record in his eight years there. ' He pro- duced fine teams in football and basketball his first year as coach in Mt. Vernon. Mr. Milward had charge of the freshman football and basketball teams which were very good this year. Mr. Winn coached the football reserves and developed some fine material for next season as well as producing a strong sopho- more basketball team. FOOTBALL REVIEW MT. VERNON 32-SPARTA 0 Coach Stan Changnon's Rams got off to a flying start in their first grid tussle by downing Sparta 32-U in their first home game. The Rams maintained a strong defense and the Bulldogs managed to pick up only two yards through the Bam's line. MT. VERNON 6-FLORA 25 The strong Flora Wolves came to town and handed the Rams their first defeat of the sea- son. The Rams started out fast and scored first mainly on the running strength of Charlie Moore. But it was then that Malinsky and Company began to move. With a terrific of- fensive thrust they carried 75 yards for a touchdown. After that the Rams couldn't get any breaks and the Wolves tore them apart. MT. VERNON 40-COLLINSVILLE 0 The Rams easily trimmed the small but scrappy Kahoks of Collinsville, putting over a touchdown early in the first period on a 62 yard march. Charlie Moore ran 78 yards for a second touchdown and from then on it was evident that the Kahoks didn't stand a chance. MT. VERNON 0-CHAMPAIGN 38 Against what many called the best team in the state the Rams didn't fare so well, The Ma- roons with their speedy backs and heavy line tore the Rams apart during the first half, but the Rams proved they had the stuff to stay in and fight. Champaign led 25-U at halftime. ln the last quarter the Rams held them score- less and outfought the Maroons until the final gun. MT. VERNON 13--MATTOON 6 The Rams got in a hole when the Green Waves scored in the second auarter with the help of a few breaks, but the Rams came ahead, scoring on a pass to Shields in the end zone. Power plays paid off in the final period with Brown and Moore bearing the brunt of the attack. Moore carried the ball over with only two minutes of play remaining. MT. VERNON 25-ELDORADO 0 Proving themselves good mudders the Rams swamped the Golden Eagles easily. The Eagles were a light and inexperienced team and couldn't compete with the line play of the Rams. MT. VERNON 6-CARMI 7 A 90 yard run on the opening kickoff gave the Carmi Bulldogs a victory over the Rams. The Rams gained l4 first downs to Carmi's 3, but couldn't put the ball over the last stripe. The Bulldogs, true to their name, tightened up inside their own 30 yard line and hung on to win 7-6. f MT. VERNON 46-CHRISTOPHER 0 When lack Brown cracked right tackle and Pat Roth scored on an end around play it took the wind out of the Christopher Bearcats. Two minutes later when Gene Deem ran 77 yards to score and Billy Van Zandt was put out of action, they were licked entirely. MT. VERNON 7-SALEM 12 Exhibiting the most spirit they displayed all year the Rams invaded the lair of the mighty Salem Wildcats on Armistice Day. They took the lead in the third quarter but were nosed out in the last three minutes of play. The Rams defense was almost perfect and the mighty Wildcats found out that their power plays didn't work so well. In this game the Bams truly displayed their defensive strength. . 71 Rana HN 5.9214 p Herman Runge . . . hard driving, hard kick- ing junior alternated at halfback and full- back positions. His fine defensive play and long punts often saved the day. Mark Moreton . . . senior letterman enjoyed his most successful season at the guard position. Mark's heavy build and aggres- siveness made him one of the best guards in these parts. Clarence Mays . . . a small but swift reserve halfback whose speed in reverses and off tackle slants spelled touchdown for the Rams more than once during the season. He will be back next year. I. D. Shields . . . captain and quarterback, played his last season in 1943 and it was one of his best. His cool-headedness and signal-calling abilities made him a fine play- er and his defensive strength was always a main factor in the game. Leon Droll . . . fine reserve and next year's captain. Leon played center and backfield this year but his speed and build may put him at an end position next season. lack Brown . . . playing his second year of varsity football Iackson had terrific drive and tore through the line by brute strength to gain many valuable first downs for the Rams. He has another year. Iirnmy Mitchell . . . tall reserve end, did not see much action this season but is expected to be in there fighting for the Rams next sea- son. Bob Mick . . . the boy who would do any- thing that anybody wanted him to do. He is built close to the ground and is a very capable lineman. Eugene Deem . . . senior halfback. Gene, too, was playing first season as a regular. His speed brought the fans to their feet many times this year and his aggressiveness and cooperation made him a valuable asset to the team. Ilrdell Webb . . . as a sophomore proved his right to fight for a first team position. His height and speed as a pass receiver and the way he shoves those big shoulders into a runner indicates that he will have a posi- tion on the first team next year. Paul Whitney . . . the first reserve of the Rams' line. Paul was fast, clever, a hard worker, and a team man. He was a good man to have around. Gale Dodson . . . dependable senior letter- man saw a lot of action as a substitute. Clarence York , , . husky, powerful, hard- working junior who put everything into the game. He played a fine season at the tackle position. Pat Roth . . . rough, tough, and hard to bluff. Trained as a guard he was shifted to end position where he played a fine game. Charlie Moore . . . the boy everybody watched. Charlie played left-halfback and really came through. His long sweeping end runs, off-tackle slants, and passing abil- ity made him one of the best that theschool has ever had. Clifford Fields . . . dependable, coolheaded, and always ready to go. Zeke played his first year of varsity ball at the center posi- tion where he opened the big holes that the backfield men like to see. Roy Bevan . . . big, formidable junior guard. Roy knows the game and he will be back again next year to play in the Rams first line of defense. Bill Thompson . . . probably the best tackle the Rams have had for many years. Bill did not show up so well till near the end of the season, when he became one of the best tackles in the state. Bill Ruoff . . . a recruit who made an admir- able showing. Although small he carried out his assignments well and was a very scrappy ballplayer. Managers for the 1943-44 athletic season were Bob Webb, Bob Moreton, S. A. Changnon, lohn Mitchell, and George Beck. Webb and Mitch took care of the teams during foot- ball season and early basketball season with Beck completing the job. Bob More- ton was the freshman manager and S. A. was the chief statistician. Hmww-' M , .sw -J, X wk ' 'Q' WNV .M , ff 'I H T A, 4 swf , ,wgjhw 1 ,.

Bill was a fine rebounder and an excellent guard. BILL RUOFF . . . playing his second season as a Ram regular was one of the stars of the team. He blossomed out in early and mid-season as a consis- tent scorer. His long one-hand shots pulled the Rams out of many a hole. I. D. SHIELDS . . . dependable, hardworking, and a good man to have on the floor. He was strong on defense, a willing working and a steadying in- fluence on the team. BOB EDSON . . . another reserve.

Nancy Lee Echols uiicaff From the first assembly of the year featur- ing a program presented by the newly organ- ized swing band, to furnishing music for the Easter Service, the school music department including the band, orchestra, chorus, ensem- bles, and swing band, directed by Mr. W. H. Beckmeyer has given a full measure of splen- did performances. Entertaining the student body, faculty, club groups, county teachers, and the public the student musicians and vocalists have won wide acclaim and continue to improve their technique. An extensive repertoire enabled the musical groups to appeal to all tastes and they often presented classic compositions and concert arrangements of popular songs on the same program. ln the State and District Solo and Ensemble Music Contest held at Benton, April 22, Mt. Vernon musicians made an unusually good showing. They won fourteen firsts. Four first place winners were especially commended and invited to appear on the Festival Concert Program. Some of the high points in the programs presented by this very active department were: The first school assembly starring the Mess Kit swing band-the band, orchestra, chorus, and ensemble assemblies-the county teachers entertainment-the superb presenta- tion ofTchaikoWsky's The ForestPrince which drew a capacity crowd and unlimited praise- Thanksgiving Service-the fine Christmas and . . nd, Easter programs-the retreat ceremony at Camp Mt. Vernon-and of course, the help of the theatre orchestra, the band's performance at games and the really professional concerts of the band, orchestra, and chorus. On the opposite page are pictured the en- sembles of chorus and orchestra, and on Page 128 those of the band.

Changnon, and assist- ants Arthur Milward and lra Winn make up the coaching staff of the Rams. Mr. Changnon, head coach, came from West Frankfort, where he had made an envi- able record in his eight years there. He pro- duced fine teams in football and basketball his first year as coach in Mt. Vernon. Mr. Milward had charge of the freshman football and basketball teams which were very good this year. Mr. Winn coached the football reserves and developed some fine material for next season as well as producing a strong sopho- more basketball team. FOOTBALL REVIEW . Mr. VERNON 32-SPARTA 0 Coach Stan Changnon's Rams got off to a flying start in their first grid tussle by downing Sparta 32-U in their first home game. The Bams maintained a strong defense and the Bulldogs managed to pick up only two yards through the Barns line. MT. VERNON 6-FLORA 25 The strong Flora Wolves came to town and handed the Rams their first defeat of the sea- son. The Rams started out fast and scored first mainly on the running strength of Charlie Moore. But it was then that Malinsky and Company began to move. With a terrific of- fensive thrust they carried 75 yards for a touchdown. After that the Bams couldn't get any breaks and the Wolves tore them apart. MT. VERNON 40-COLLINSVILLE U The Rams easily trimmed the small but scrappy Kahoks of Collinsville, putting over a touchdown early in the first period on a 62 yard march. Charlie Moore ran 78 yards for a second touchdown and from then on it was evident that the Kahoks didn't stand a chance. MT. VERNON U-CHAMPAIGN 38 Against what many called the best team in the state the Rams didn't fare so well. The Ma- roons with their speedy backs and heavy line tore the Rams apart during the first half, but the Rams proved they had the stuff to stay in and fight. Champaign led 25-O at halftime. ln the last quarter the Rams held them score- less and outfought the Maroons until the final gun. MT. VERNON 13-MATTOON 8 The Rams got in a hole when the,Green Waves scored in the second auarter with the help of a few breaks, but the Rams came ahead, scoring on a pass to Shields in the end zone. Power plays paid off 'in the final period with Brown and Moore bearing the brunt of the attack. Moore carried the ball over with only two minutes of play remaining. MT. VERNON 25-ELDORADO 0 Proving themselves good mudders the Rams swamped the Golden Eagles easily. The Eagles were a light and inexperienced team and couldn't compete with the line play of the Rams. MT. VERNON 6-CARMI 7 A QU yard run on the opening kickoff gave the Carmi Bulldogs a victory over the Rams. The Rams gained lil first downs to Carmi's 3, but couldn't put the ball over the last stripe. The Bulldogs, true to their name, tightened up inside their own 30 yard line and hung on to win 7-6. MT. VERNON 46-CHRISTOPHER 0 When lack Brown cracked right tackle and Pat Roth scored on an end around play it took the wind out of the Christopher Bearcats. Two minutes later when Gene Deem ran 77 yards to score and Billy Van Zandt was put out of action, they were licked entirely. MT. VERNON 7-SALEM 12 T Exhibiting the most spirit they displayed all year the Bams invaded the lair of the mighty Salem Wildcats on Armistice Day. They took the lead in the third auarter but were nosed out in the last three minutes of play. The Bams defense was almost perfect and the mighty Wildcats found out that their power plays didn't work so well. ln this game the Bams truly displayed their defensive strength. fm. 71 nm iw' square Herman Runge . . . hard driving, hard kick- ing junior alternated at halfback and full- back positions. His fine defensive play and long punts often saved the day. Mark Moreton . . . senior letterman enjoyed his most successful season at the guard position. Mark's heavy build and aggres- siveness made him one of the best guards in these parts. Clarence Mays . . . a small but swift reserve halfback whose speed in reverses and off tackle slants spelled touchdown for the Barns more than once during the season. He will be back next year. I. D. Shields . . . captain and quarterback, played his last season in 1943 and it was one of his best. His cool-headedness and signal-calling abilities made him a fine play- er and his defensive strength was always a main factor in the game. Leon Droll . . . fine reserve and next year's captain. Leon played center and backfield this year but his speed and build may put him at an end position next season. Iack Brown . . . playing his second year of varsity football fackson had terrific drive and tore through the line by brute strength to gain many valuable first downs for the Rams. He has another year. Iimmy Mitchell . . . tall reserve end, did not see much action this season but is expected to bein there fighting for the Bams next sea- son. Bob Mick , . . the boy who would do any- thing that anybody wanted him to do. He is built close to the ground and is a very capable lineman. Eugene Deem . . . senior halfback. Gene, too, was playing first season as a regular. His speed brought the fans to their feet many times this year and his aggressiveness and cooperation made him a valuable asset to the team. I-lrdell Webb . . . as a sophomore proved his right to fight for a first team position. His height and speed as a pass receiver and the way he shoves those big shoulders into a runner indicates that he will have a posi- tion on the first team next year. Paul Whitney , . . the first reserve of the Bams' line. Paul was fast, clever, a hard worker, and a team man. He was a good man to have around. Gale Dodson . . . dependable senior letter- man saw a lot of action as a substitute. Clarence York . . . husky, powerful, hard- working junior who put everything into the game. He played a fine season at the tackle position. Pat Roth . . . rough, tough, and hard to bluff. Trained as a guard he was shifted to end position where he played a fine game. Charlie Moore . . . the boy everybody watched. Charlie played left-halfback and really carne through. His long sweeping end runs, off-tackle slants, and passing abil- ity made him one of the best that the school has ever had. Clifford Fields . . . dependable, coolheaded, and always ready to go. Zeke played his first year of varsity ball at the center posi- tion where he opened the big holes that the backfield men like to see. Roy Bevan . . . big, formidable junior guard. Boy knows the game and he will be back again next year to play in the Bams first line of defense. . Bill Thompson . . . probably the best tackle the Rams have had for many years. Bill did not show up so well till near the end of the season, when he became one of the best tackles in the state. Bill Ruoff . . . a recruit who made an admir- able showing. Although small he carried out his assignments well and was a very scrappy ballplayer. Managers for the i943-44 athletic season were Bob Webb, Bob Moreton, S. A. Changnon, lohn Mitchell, and George Beck. Webb and Mitch took care of the teams during foot- ball season and early basketball season with Beck completing the job. Bob More- ton was the freshman manager and S. A. was the chief statistician. fi ni THE B SQUAD uumwwwf,,.-.m-mMW- -M - 'W I I 7!ae Ween fn B YEAR'S RECORD Twenty won and twelve lost marked the Ram's first year with Coach Stanley A. Changnon. Play- ing teams, rated among the best of the state, the Mt. Vernon boys came out ahead on a won-lost basis throughout the season. The team members set high standards in con- duct, exhibiting a high quality of sportsmanship. tiki? HOLIDAY TOURNAMENT The Ram cage squad placed sec- ond in the Mt. Vernon Holiday Tournament, an event which match- ed sixteen chosen teams from all sections of Illinois. They bowed only to the speedy Pinckneyville squad. In the four games a total of 136 points scored by Mt. Vernon basketeers topped an opposing total of 104. Urbana was winner of third place honors. ikilr A SQUAD MEMBERS LEE GATEWOOD . . . junior reserve who contributed much to the success of the Rams this year. His height indicates he will be in there next year. BILL THOMPSON . . . the boy who without any ex- perience at all came in and filled the center posi- tion for the Rams during the entire season. Bill was a fine rebounder and an excellent guard. BILL RUOFF . . . playing his second season as a Ram regular was one of the stars of the team. He blossomed out in early and mid-season as a consis- tent scorer. His long one-hand shots pulled the Rams out of many a hole. I. D. SHIELDS . . . dependable, hardworking, and a good man to have on the floor. He was strong on defense, a willing working and a steadying in- fluence on the team. BOB EDSON . . . another reserve. Bob in his junior year displayed the kind of spirit coaches like to see in a player. CHARLIE MOORE . . . rebounder, scorer, and guard deluxe. This is Charlie's fourth year on the varsity and he made it a good one. One of the high scorers of the team he displayed the ability and generalship of the veteran he was. Although an injury held down his speed he was still one of the best. ' ARDELL WEBB . . . fine sophomore who played plenty of basketball for the Rams. He played any position on the team and was a consistent scorer. - EDDIE ROUTE . . . another speedy boy. Eddie came to the team this year and through hard work broke into the starting lineup in mid-season. He usually contributed about 1U points a game regardless of how long he played. His speed and ball-stealing brought many ahsl from the crowds. LEON DROLL . . . a capable, hard-working, and fast improving junior. He has speed and ability and is expected to play next year. CLARENCE MAYS . . . another speedy junior who will see action next year. Clarence is a willing work- er and displays a fine spirit. CHESTER GLOVER . . . deadeye Chet. Playing without much experience he developed into the team's rnost consistent scorer. - IOHN MCMAIN . . . funny-man of the tearn. Mac was always ready to go and he will be back next year.
