'SW The Versatile B squad football team, which was adopted as the 'Little Panthers' this year, gave a highly respectable account of themselves during the 1957 season, Here are a few of the reasons that this year's team will make next year's squad a highly rated ball club. Spirit, determination, and brawn played a big role in the undefeated season of five wins and no losses. Here are some notes that a scout might take: End: Paul Schlosser Tackle: Bob Maxwell Guard: Robert Johnson Center: Lee Roy York Left Guard: Earl Redmond Left Tackle: Harold Price Left End: Rick Kirk Right Halfbackz Larry Horath Left Halfback: Jesse Newton Fullbackz Fred Payne Quarterback: Harry Wilson Defense Ends: Jerry Mouser Charles Rippy Best receiver, hard blocker. Lightning fast on offense, will penetrate in the offensive back field in crucial situations. Fastest pulling guard I've seen on a B squad, fair blocker, very much determination, good kicker. Co-Captain, Has everything, quick blocker, definitely makes play go up the middle, good domm field blocker, will throw two blocks in one play, A good defensive player in the middle of the line and blocks well for quick plays and off- tackle plays. Determination and strong offensive blocker. Throws very good blocks and is good pass receiver. Quick starter, improving rapidly at end of season. Co-Captain, Best outside back on team, very good on defense, Pride and joy of the team. Hard ballcarrier to bring down, carried as many as 25-30 times a night. Good line -backer leading yard gainer, Pint sized QB, runs outside belly series to perfection, calls plays well, passes left-handed will keep and run, good shifty runner. Also the live wire of the team, always talking on defense. Both break up interference good, hard to block out, use hands on blockers.

The Panthers gained experience in a new competitive sport this past season when Cross Country was added to their ath- letic intercompetitive curricuhrm. The boys started against Paris and Mattoon at the Paris Country Club Golf Course. In our first meet the Panther Tracksters made a gallant try but found the hills a little steep. In their second meeting against Cumberland the boys ran better but'still came out with only experience, Then the following week ln October the Panthers, led by Bob Maxwell, their ace runner, knocked off Unity High of Urbana to gain their first victory, The meet was held at Mattoon in a brisk rain with Mattoon taking first. The Panthers edged out the Urbanians 54-52. Points were made by five Panthers who inchrded Bob Maxwell, Earl Redmond, Lee Roy York, Bob Inboden, and Charles Rippy. Other runners that day were Duane Abraham, Phil Mendenhall, Harold Newbold, Charles Hippler, and Lawrence Mus- grave. Next year, with nine of these ten boys back, the Cross Country squad should be a more experienced and much improved team, Coach Doyel Sponsored by INDEX NOTION COMPANY .Q - . I 1' ' ' A f .

Burl Martin landed Oblong in the Olney Sectional Bas- ketball tourney. Martin's performance enabled the Panthers to whip Lawrenceville 60-47 in the Region- al Title game at Newton. Don Matheny - Matheny entering the game at the second quarter broke the backs of the Noble Wild Cats, seeded No. 1 in the Regional as he hit four straight jump shots from twenty -five feet out. By: Newton Press Louie Henry - Henry 6'1 , a junior is perhaps the most under-rated member of the team. He isn't a flashy player, but has added much in the way of starting. By: Lawrenceville Record John Kirk - Pat Hillard - Ted Dennis - Larry Higgins - Dale O'Dell, in the final quarter of the Cham- pionship game, Larry Higgins connected for six straight free throws while John Kirk hooked in the last goal as Pat Hillard, Ted Dennis and Dale O'Dell stalled the game out for the trip to the Sectional. By: Oblong Oracle Ronnie Dennis - Dennis 6'3 forward of Oblong's, stood out in the Effingham game, as he utterly wrecked the Effingham Hearts in the second half of the Sectional with his fifteen foot jump shots. By: Decatur Herald There was no member of the team that seemed less important than the other as they went on to win as a team. By: Newton Daily Monitor The town of Oblong gave the deserving Panthers a royal send off to the Olney Sectional and two hours later they were receiving them back in grand style with all kinds of sirens blasting away. It turned out to be the biggest celebration since the Crawford County Oil Boom. Sponsored by: BROWNFIELD IMP.

Sponsored by: IACK'S DEPARTMENT STORE and JACKSON'S TEXACO STATION ,pv- The National Honor Society dates back to the year 1920, and unlike many other similar organizations, it does not consider scholarship alone. It was felt this was too narrow a basis for choosing members, therefore, the organization recognized four principal objectives: SCHOLARSHlP, CHARACTER, LEADERSHIP and SERVICE. These objectives are considered above all else in the se- lection of new members. The Oblong Chapter of the National Society was founded in 19134 and has been active since that date. Approximately 180 members have become active in the local chapter. Only juniors and seniors in the upper part of their classes are eligible as candidates in the local chapter. x f X , , X f S V if 5 I-A NEW MEMBERS LEFT TO RIGHT: Janet Miller, Ronnie Dennis, Margaret Turnipseed, and Don- na Richey.

J Well, here we are - - sophisticated seniors - - well, seniors anyway. Four years have passed and we are finally reach- ing that goal which we have been looking forward to for so long. We began 'as green as they come. We elected as our leaders Donna Henry, presidentg Pat Hillard, vice -president, Bonnie Newton, secretary, and Ray Elliott, treasurer. Although our freshman float for Homecoming wasu't the best in the world, we were really proud of it. Bonnie Newton was our attend- ant to the Queen. Also Patti Sullens and Bonnie were elected B team cheerleaders. Our Valentine Dance was very suc- cessful, and we had several other parties that proved to be a lot of hm. Helen Smith was chosen to help lead the Marching Band: this she has done for four years. We had a big boost behind us all the time from Mrs. Mitchell, our sponsor. A three-month vacation - - then back for our second year at O.T. H. S. The year started fine with Gary Frederick as president, Larry Dorrough as vice -president, Leona Kocher as secretary-treasurer. We had a cheerful boost from Mr. Stokes and Mr. Chapman, our sponsors. Ronnie Bailey and Sue York were our class favorites, Homecoming came with Sue York, our attendant to the Queen, riding on our 'Rolling to Victory float. Bonnie Newton and Patti Sullens again sparked the B team with their yells, St. Patrick's Day came, and to help celebrate we sponsored a dance with an orchestra. Summer brought tragedy. We lost one of our classmates, James Lackey, to an unexpected death, We came back to dear O,'l'. H. S. this time as jolly juniors and jolly we were. We started the year off by electing Bob Harris, presidentg Ronnie Bailey, vice-president,J0 AISH. SCCIGIBIY: 31181011 Tracy. IICSSUICIT MIS- Mitchell. SPOHSOI. and Mr. Stokes, co-sponsor. Here comes Homecoming and Junior Class's pride and joy, The Hound Dog' float on which we worked so hard to complete. Our efforts won us second place. Helen Smith, our attendant, rode in the convertible in front. Jann Miller and Bonnie Newton were elected to back our varsity team. Patti Sullens and Patty Kintner assisted Helen Smith at the job of leading the band. At Christmas we began the holidays with a grand Christmas Ball, We began early on Prom, only to finish at the last minute. Kismet was our theme, and a good time was our objective. The Prom was successful in many ways, Then, as always that inevitable day - - school was over for another year. Now, here we are seniors. The moment has almost arrived - - 'graduation day. We look back to find Ronnie Dennis, president: Bob Harris, vice-president, Sue York, secretary, Margaret Turnlpseed, treasurerg Mr. Doyel and Mrs. Wilkin, sponsors. We won first on our float in the Homecoming parade. Donna Henry rode on the Queen's throne, as she was later crowned Homecoming Queen of 1957. The year was filled with activities, mostly working to earn money for the Senior Trip.
