Rzifiner lf we should scan with any care the list of duties and obligations dele- gated to school boards we might wonder why any man or woman should voluntarily assume such! The one answer to such a question must be the challenging interest in children and in tne future of our country. A publication of the California State Department of Education stresses the importance of school boards in the following words: The school board has the future of the Nation and the Progress of all our people as its responsibility. The maintenance of the democratic aspect of public education is as mucn dependent upon the type, the intelligence, the ability of school-board members or school trustees as it is upon the quality of instruction offered to the children in the classroom. School directors and school boards in lllinois have in their charge the educational welfare of nearly l,000,000 children, the selection of 46,000 public school teachers. The school board members are usually busy people of wide interests, often the heads of families, and those who have already shown their ability to handle affairs successfully. When such persons are willing to accept, with- out remuneration, all the responsibilities that board members do, they deserve the heartiest co-operation of everyone in the community. That being so, may we, as Seniors and luniors, in Qlney Township High School say, Thank you to our own Board of Education of District No. 76 for the good things we have had from them. OUR PRINCIPAL, MR. W. R. MCINTOSH, M.S. Directing the activities of our hiqh school is a real job, yet so smoothly done that no one realizes the effort that qoes into it. Mr. Mclntosh is a busy man in the community as well as at school. He is President of the Community Coune - cil, is active in the Rotary Club, and teaches the Men's Class in the Metho- dist Sunday School.

T. H. S. Table Tennis Tourney was organ- ized. 32 contestants were regis- tered, and names were drawn to determine against whom each would play. After hard fought, furious bat- tles the field was narrowed down to only eight contestantsg then to the four semifinalists: Forrest, Kutz, Boatman and Threet. ln the matches between these four play- ers, Forrest was triumphant over Boatman, and Threet won over Kutz. This left the consolation match between Boatman and lerry Kutz and the final match for the championship between Forrest and Threet. Boatman won the consola- tion match only after a fierce bat- tle in which Kutz's chop stroke bothered Boatman considerably. Then on Wednesday morning, February l4, 1040, the table was placed on the floor of the gym- nasium and the championship battle was played before 500 spec- tators. Threet won the first game and Forrest took the second, mak- ing them even. But Threet took the next two games ending the match and was declared to be the winner of the match and the Table Tennis Champion of Olney Township High School. Junior Class Though the Seniors may be far superior to us in numbers, we try to make up for it in other ways. Qurs is the intellectual class, and the class of the table tennis champions!

THE OLNEY TIGERS ARE CONSIDERED AS E TEAM TO BEAT IN THIS PART OF THE STATE - AND THIS ENVIABLE REPUTATION IS DUE MAINLY TO THE WORK OF THESE TWO MEN. qinning of an Olney-Flora Basketball game, Time Out for C1 nese two fancy Orange and Black pony carts owned and op- rated by Keith Sutton and Bob Miller, did their share in liven- ing up the football parades at all the home games. Football Will you ever be able to forget the football season of 1939? The Olney Tigers did things up right, under the able coaching ot Mr. Newton by winning 7, tying I, and losing l. The season began with a victory over a mighty Carbondale eleven. Following this win, the Tigers defeated the Centralia Redbirds for the first time in the history of the rivalry between the two schools. Then the Tigers met defeat at the hands of a determined band of Lawrence- ville Indians on a cold, rainy night in October. This defeat was the only one ot the season. From Lawrenceville on, the Tigers continued on their victorious way. STANDING tLeft to Rightlz Ray Read, Robert Dehner, Robert E. Harmon, Wid Miller, hm Goss and Mr. VanCleve.

Olney played havoc with Fairfield's Homes coming when they trounced the Mules 30 to 13. Newton was the next victim to tall at the hands of the inconquerable Tigers. ln our Homecom- ing game with Bridgeport, while a large group of former football captains looked on, Olney added another win to their growing line of vic- tories. On a muddy tield at Albion, the Tigers again proved their strength by beating a plucky Albion team. Olney spoiled another Homecom- ing when Carmi bowed before a vicious Tiger attack. The long awaited game with Flora, tradi- tional rivals of the Tigers, ended in a seven to seven tie, to complete a successful season. On the All-Conference team wnich is se- lected by representative sport writers from the seven towns ot the North Egypt Conference, Bob Vaughn and George Armsey were chosen as end and halt back, respectively.

Strengthened by the return ot six letter men, the Olney Tigers, coached by Mr. Frank Newton hit the top in Basketball accomplishments. Olney swept through their first six games without one defeat, lout went down at the hands of the highly touted Shelby- ville five in a closely fought game. During the Christmas Holidays the Tigers went to Mt. Vernon to take part in the annual Mt. Vernon Holiday Tourna- ment. After winning a thrilling overtime battle with Ziegler in their first game, they were nosed out by a strong Marion quintet. Starting out the New Year, the Tigers continued their high- class brand ot basketball, and lost only three of their scheduled games -- one each to Centralia, Flora, and Clinton. At the season's end the Tigers boasted a fine record ot eighteen wins and tour losses during seasonal play. EZ Coach Newton sends in lim Williamson. George Armsey Neal Hudson BASKET 1939- Bti?

Olney advanced to the Lawrenceville Sectional, where they went down in defeat to the Casey Warriors, who later won the Sectional Championship. The coveted North Egypt Conference Crown was won by Qlney for the second consecutive year.

With in- dividual and sectional practicing during free periods, the quality of the music has greatly improved. This is a new plan and has been very successful. The Band played at all the home football games. Flora witnessed a grand performance at the annual Armistice Day battle between the Tigers and the Wolves. At Fairfield's Home- coming they strutted their stuff! Then came the basketball games with Band members occa- sionally directing. Cus -- we think hes swell! Sendinq it out at a basketball game Helen knows where music is. loe Cummins, the flashy drum-major, was trained by last year's baton twirler Ioe Harden. To lend an effective note to the whole picture the Band members elected two majorettes, Marilee McCurdy and La Verne Barthelme. Does the Band ever look classy now! To top off the year the Band placed first in the District Contest held at Robinson and won second ratinq at the State Contest at West Frankfort. The solos and ensembles certainly went to townl To the National Contest held at Battle Creek, Michi- gan, was sent Mary-Io Bracy, flutistg Sonny Roberts, French Horn, lohnny von Almen, cornetisty the Brass Sextet, and the French Horn Quartet.

Careful handling ot these funds takes care ot the regular meet- ings and permits the girls to carry on interesting and worth- while projects. The club sent three delegates to the State Convention held in Chicago, early in November. You will recognize the three, lune, Mary Elizabeth and Betty Lou. As a Christmas gesture, the girls bought and dressed eleven dolls and gave them to the Recreation Center tor dis- tribution to little girls that might not be iound by Santa Claus. Twentyfsix oi the girls attended the spring district meeting in Windsor. The climax ot the year was the May style show to which the mothers were invited. The stage was set to represent a fashion magazine with open leaves from which the models stepped torth and Walked across the stage.

This year Miss Claribel Lee, a new teacher at O. T. H. S., has been sponsor of the group. Clarence Pitts has served as presi- dent, Elizabeth Gassmann as Vice-president, and Suzanne Gassmann as secre- tary-treasurer. Two plays were presented this year. The first, Auf Weidersehenu was presented before two different audiences, the student body and the Parent- Teacher Association. Foot-loose was presented to the general public. The Obstinate Family was used as a practice play. Auf Weidersehen is a modern one-act German play. The entire play takes place in the home of a lewish woman, Frau Neuberg, played by Mary Elizabeth Schahrer. Her niece and nephew were left to her care after the death of their parents. Her nephew lohann was played by Bill Stroud, her niece Elsa by Elizabeth Gassmann. Frau Neuberg's Iewish friend, Levinski, was played by Clarence Pitts. The German officer was played by Dale Britton, and the German soldier by Ralph Bower. The story of the play is the banishing of the lews by Hitler and the Nazis. Levinski is killed after he shot a German soldier who was breaking into his clothing shop. Frau Neuberg attempts to hide him from the German officials, but to no avail. Frau Neuberg plans to journey to America and just a few days before she is to start on her trip she learns that she cannot leave Germany. After this disillusionment she commits suicide so her German niece and nephew may live under the German regime. Foot-loose , one of the newer domestic comedies, written by Charles Quimby Burdette, presents the age-old struggle of parents and children, in an intensely interesting fashion. Emily and Richard Early are parents who devote every waking moment to the welfare and happiness of their four children. lt is a surprise to them when they realize that their efforts are not appreciated, that their brood are screeching to try their wings. They are persuaded to take a world cruise while Hope, their eldest daughter, takes charge of the home. Emily and Richard Early are played by Virginia Hahn and Russell Scherer and Hope by Virginia Roberts. Bob Early you get up from there and go get dressed! I guess l know where to park my car' ...1 MISS CLABIBEL LEE, Sponsor No sooner are the parents gone than the difficulties begin to appear. Bob, the younger brother, lack McCurdy, buys half-interest in an old car, and with it runs into the car of a cranky widow, Mrs. Forester, Pat Huber. Dick, the oldest son, Sonny Roberts, marries his sweetheart, lenny Malloy, La Verne Barthelme, but she loses her job, and the two come home to live. Delphie, the maid, Mary Elizabeth Schahrer, comes down with pneumonia. And Mary, the younger daughter, Marilee McCurdy, deserting her childhood sweetheart, runs around with lack Milford, an affected sophomore of Broadhurst College, Clarence Pitts. The children rise to the emergencies as they are presentedg they are barely able, however, to solve all their difficulties by the time their parents reappear, refreshed and convinced that it is better that their children share in the responsi- bilities of the home. Helen lenner plays the part of the vamp, Miriam Walker, Bob Forrest the part of the young lawyer, Sanford Wells, and Bill Stroud the part of Bandy Cunningham, and Ralph Bower the part of Buzz Daily, lack's friend. We might as well admit it, Emily: our brood is growing up.

It is published weekly by a staff composed entirely of students with Miss Towery and Miss Lee as sponsors. This year the staff elected Bob Forrest as Editor, Lois Wheeler and Mary-lo Bracy as Assistant Editors. They have rnade excellent and very capable officers. The paper is efficiently managed and well organized. Cn the front page you will find headline and general news. Editorials and briqhtly written per- sonals fill the next paae. The accomplishments of our athletic heroes are on the third, and on the last page are social events, jokes, and oraanization activities.

Vtfe're through! tix' Olnean Last May, after two sessions of discussion and balloting, Virginia Roberts and Elizabeth Gassmann were elected coeeditors of the Olnean Staff. The combination seemed as nearly lUO per cent as any such combination could be--e Squeak and Liffet , Liffet and Squeak . Only one drawback! These girls had not only their fingers but their whole souls into all the other high school pies. Liffet rounded out her fourth year as Cheer Leader and in recognition of her service to Athletics in O.T.H.S., Coacn Newton presented her an O when he presented the letters to the basketball men. As Liffet was a vital element in athletics, Virginia had her interest in the Band. lt is enough to say that where- ever the Band went, there Virginia was sure to be. Virginia, too, had one of the leading roles in Foot-loose , a play presented by the Thespians. Liffet had a corresponding lead in the Senior Class Play, Iune Mad. Both girls were active members of the G.A.A. This book is evidence of what the two twith the staffl did for the Olnean. The staff was made up of some sixty Seniors and Iuniors. Regular meetings were held during the seventh hour on Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday of each week. The limited number who could attend these meetings took care of the routine work of the organization, in other words, they did the chores. Special meetings of the various committees were held at noon, and while they worked out their problems they enjoyed their sandwiches and cocoa. When word came in September that our Olnean of l939 had rated All- Arnerican, in true Alexander Woolcott style we went quietly mad. With high spirits we vowed to repeat that rating on the l94O edition. On September 30th, nine members of the staff attended the S. D. 'Warren Yearbook Exhibit held in Decatur at the Huston-Patterson corporation. Here we had the opportunity to study some very excellent yearbooks. Virginia and Liffet, Suzanne Gassmann, Helen Pat Huber, and lva Mae Spieth with Miss Schmalhausen, Sponsor, attended the National Scholastic Press Association at the Stevens Hotel in Chicago, November 9th, lOth, and llth. Lectures and discussion helped us to establish standards for the yearbook of today. We spent every available minute inspecting the books in the All-American Noon Meetings proved popular.

Exhibit and were filled with satisfaction to see our own Glnean among the other high raters of the United States. Mingled with all the fine help the associa- tion afforded us, there was plenty of fun and gayety. We have financed our book by much the same means as in former years. The sale of books and advertising space are the two largest factors. We were given the proceeds from the Fall Festival or Pow Wow. For this we thank Mr. Sliva because he furnished the idea for the Festival and the enthusiasm that made it such a great success. We make our bow, likewise, to Miss Farrell and Mr. Bower, two other of the Senior sponsorsp Miss Farrell for income from the Senior Play and Mr. Bower for profit from handling the sale of rings. We have sold more books than ever and we have a noticeable increase in our advertising section. Don't fail to read these Adsy all articles therein fully approvedfby the Olnean Staff.
