Teachers—H. Singler, Stumm, Brown, Flachsbart, Cosner, Johnson. Teams placing first: Senior Girls, Cleaners, Coalton. COUNTY TOURNAMENT The basketball team, after a slow start, finally clicked in the County Tournament at Litchfield. Nokomis defeated Hillsboro to carry off the honor as champion of the County. Incidentally, this was the first County Championship that Nokomis has won since the erection of this school. Nokomis then went over to the district at Pana and lost its second game to Taylorville by one point. This game was very hard fought, and the winner was in doubt until the last minute, when Taylorville scored on a foul. JUNIOR-SENIOR BANQUET The Junior-Senior Banquet, held May 1 1, 1933, was reminiscent of the Land of the Rising Sun. The guests were led into a bower of cherry blossoms, which in prose was the gym” dressed up. The following program, interwoven with an excellent four course dinner, was introduced by Hazel Read, Toastmistress: Mr. Truitt Hazel Read, Toast mistress Anna Cibulka J Annamae Easterday ( Harriet Irwin ........Mrs. Eekhoff ..........Mr. Johnson ... Norman Johnson ....... Harold Dilley ......Miss Ronchetti .....Andy McQuiston Grace Thompson ...........Waitresses . Mr. Jay Earle Hulet SENIOR WIENER ROAST W ho doesn t just love an outdoor frolic? Blazing fire, simmering wieners, toasting bread, browned marshmallows, laughter, fun! Games played, when one feels thoroughly roasted and ready for action, then songs around the fire! Later, a sleepy, smiling bunch” going home. Yes, wiener roasts are fun, and ours couldn’t be beat. It was held October 2, at Ben Kettelkamp’s farm. PHYSICAL EDUCATION DEMONSTRATION On the night of March 21, Mr. Johnson and Miss Pircher combined forces to put on a program in the gymnasium. Mr. Johnson s part consisted of a demonstration of the value of physical education. The calisthenic drills, novelty walks, balance touch, walrus race, boxing, and wrestling proved entertaining as well as instructive to the audience. Miss Pircher sponsored a pageant called The Princess Who Could Not Dance.” The princess did everything opposite from the instruction of her teachers in their effort to teach her to dance. The closing ceremony of the program was the crowning of Nelinda Tosetti as basketball queen by Pete N. Jachino, the basketball king. The crowning was witnessed by the other basketball boys and Angeline Costa, the maid of honor, along with the queen's attendants: L. Florini, E. Pellegrini, F. Shalbot, L. Husman, E. Deitz, M. Carroll, and D. Wieneke. After the queen was crowned, J. Isbell, L. Pocock, M. Cibulka, and R. Pocock, accompanied by E. Pocock at the pinao, sang a song in honor of the queen, to end the program. TRACK With few of last year’s men back, Mr. Cosner started track training the first Monday in March. He hopes to have the most successful track team since he has been here.
