By the warmth of his ready smile, the humor of his good stories, and the youthfulness of his radiant person- ality he has endeared himself to the student body. For these qualities and for his patience and untiring efforts as Business Advisor of the CREST and as Treasurer of the school for nine years, we lovingly dedicate the 1956 CREST to him. MR.

FISHER The most loyal friend of the Peoria public schools is foundin the person of their superintendent, Mr. E. C. Fisher, a man ever thoughtful of the interests of students, teachers, and laymen alike, a cultured, well-educated leader in an educating community. His personality, character, and reputation are an inspiration toiall who come in contact with him. May the loyalty which he shows the students, teachers, and workers of our school system ever reflect upon him to his happiness, well-being, and pleasure. 17 1. H. BREWER The more familiar one becomes with a person, the more difficult it becomes to write mere words about him, and so we, the class of 1956, find ourselves at a loss to find phrases to describe our Mr. Brewer. The epitome of loyalty to our school, a supporting brace to all our clubs, the pivot of undergraduate life. We look upon him with emotion mingled with admiration, respect, and affection. It is our fondest hope as we go forth from this, our alma mater, that his loyalty to all that for which he stands may inspire us to a real understanding of this quality, and an effort to further it in our own lives. 18 vtirv ELEANOR B. WATSON ROSS L. JOHNSON Loyalty, to the two busiest persons of Peoria High School, is a daily affair. Day in and day out, our Miss Watson and Mr. Johnson touch upon the lives of two thousand persons and enrich them greatly by their loyalty, sympathy, and understanding. To them loyalty is a necessity, sine qua non. In their lives we see mirrored the interests of Peoria High students who constantly approach them for aid and inspiration. Loyal to the last, they never fail us. We leave the school, greatly in their debt. May the other students who follow us enjoy these human teachers, and bask in their kindness. 19 .Ylillfflzillyf Nr. lylurphy, Mr. Ileghin. .S'i'u!i'i1 -Mr. llurlogzi, Mrs. XVISIIIIIII, Mr. lipslcin, Miss lioynlon, Mrs. lielsley.

But our class, we will agree, has come a great distance and has done many things, although there were our foolish deeds also. But as we progressed from year to year we became more and more the seasoned troupers. Through the brief span of our four years we have all made many friends. Some will be lifetime friends. But we are going to say goodbye to each other as we go our separate ways, perhaps to meet later in the outside world. ln our Sophomore year our class did its part to take a place in school activities. We initiated the Sophomore Frolic, which we are sorry to see forgotten. There can be no disputing the saying, in our junior year, There was never a better Prom. The Senior Hop also was a huge success. We had our athletic heroes too. From our class came those who went down in athletic history. The football team had a greater year than ever before, and the team was composed of Seniors who made a name for themselves and P.H.S. on the battlefield. Our successful basketball team has also been composed entirely of Seniors. The Senior Class Play, Pomander Walk, was a great success. The cast departed from custom and presented a costume play. It was a gamble but again our class won out. We have gained much in our four years. Each day we gather bits of experience to aid us in future years. We will go away from Peoria High with a sentiment of loyalty to our old school and a will to win in the world. We will always stand up for Peoria High School in memory of what she meant to us. As a climax to the act the class left a stage set and badly needed lighting equipment for the auditorium stage. We do this with deep devotion to the school - our school, to which we will always point with pride. So we ring down the curtain on a great act. 30 AARON, CATHERINE ABEL, MAXINE H.

ZIPPRICH, Bois L. ' ' Prefect. Senior' Hop NCE again the seniors with their dates crowded the boy's gym for the annual Senior Hop. At this gala event on the night of january 31 they danced to the strains of Harry Hill's orchestra. Confetti, intricate dance steps, and melodies from Mackey added to the enjoyment of the evening. Vari-colored lights playing upon the dancers helped to enhance the music of the orchestra. Such events as this, which are sponsored by the school, are always well supported by the senior class. Our class was found to be loyal as usual, 62 Jack Parmenter, Sec.g Robert Saur, Ti'eas.g Charles Gamble, V.-Pres., Robert Vance, Pres. .lhuiiniioir Class LTHOUGH the 1935-36 junior Class is the smallest of the year, its members have maintained its traditional characteristics of leadership, scholarship, character, dra- matic ability, and athletic prowess. juniors have represented their group in almost every extra-curicular activity at Peoria High School this year. Perhaps the most distinctive position is that of editor of the OPINION, held by Bud Briggs. Several other juniors are members of the OPINION staff, and still others helped to publish the CREST. It takes the cooperation of all members to keep the morale of a club or team alive. The juniors have, then, done much to bring about the spirit of loyalty and good-fellowship which exists within the school activities. We have had a chance to become well acquainted with our school, and with our vitality and spirit create an infectious influence over our fellow students. The football squad had Dick Richards, a junior, as a regular, and Roger Sutton and Perry Golly were regulars on the basketball team. Jeanne Swann, Betsy Hunter, Shirley Caplan and Don Wollett had leading parts in The Cat and the Canary , jusendra's 1956 evening production. Most glamorous of high school social events was the junior Prom, held April 17 in the gayly-bedecked Inglaterra ballroom, with Lang Thompson's orchestra playing for the maze of dancers. The prom's spectacular success was the result of constant research and planning by the various class officers and committees under the guidance of Miss Edwardine Sperling and joseph Sommers, class sponsors, who are indirectly responsible for the success of all 1935-36 junior activities. 63 Davis, R.

You can't overlook us even if you tried, for our class has more members than any other in the school. Our activity has made us just as valuable as the upper classmen. A large number of our more intellectually minded members were elected to junior National Honor Society. Among the Charvice members may be found Margaret Ringness, 'lean Clatfelter, Mary jean Olsen, and Cherie Lidle. The sophomores in Promerito are jim Briggs and Jack Hana. Many of our members have been dispensing their energy in enlivening the clubs of our school. The Sophomore Class is represented on Student Council by john Whisenand, Mary Ellen Steel, jess Steidinger, and claims a large number of prefects in its ranks. Not to be outdone by the members of clubs and societies some of the sophomores can claim membership on the football and basketball teams, organized especially for them. They have set some fine records, winning four out of six football games, and eleven out of fourteen basketball games. Richie Anderson has for two years been on the swimming team which took first place in Big Twelve Contest. The student manager of the team is Rodman Thompson. Paul jordan and Arthur Heidrich are also on the regular team. The Sophomore Class has had some part in all the activities open to them and have cooperated with its sponsors, Miss Susie jones and Mr. joseph Meyers, in making a success of the class activities. 69 X61 A .

FOR THE KNOWLEDGE WE ARE GAINING, GRATEFULLY WE STRIVE FOR THEE. EORIA HIGH! It is our pride and our pleasure to see thee gain and grow and stand at the top! All our efforts shall be spent for thee! The seniors uphold the honor and glory of our school. They pass on, and juniors take their places. No less do they hold the banner high than do the Sophomores who, accustomed to thy ways, look ever to the time when they may be the accomplished ones! The freshmen, held lowly in the minds of thelr upperclassmates, are none the less industrious for their position! In honor and in love each class works to better itself and raise the standard of its school. For thee, Peoria High, our efforts are unending. 72 , i Voss.

Yes, but what would any school be like without the fresh and humorous tinge which we provide? Early in September, 1935, we arrived, a dazed but lively group of students. Our every action betrayed us, for we were, indeed, Freshies . We were received courteously by Sophomores, juniors and Seniors too. They made us feel so much at home that the tension in every one of us died. We felt more free to mix, and we were not long in entering the many school activities. The Freshman Class is represented in the Student Council by Joanne Miller, voted into office by the class. This shows that the Freshman are taking their place in the student government of Peoria High School. Until the second semester we had no class officers. After we were better acquainted, Mr. Brewer appointed the oflicers mentioned above. Although we are the subject of the many jokes and puns put forth by the Seniors, we nevertheless rank high in number and high in the spirit of the school. We're only Freshmen once, and next year we will be welcoming others to take our places. Then we, old and experienced Sophomores, will have someone -to look up to us. May we welcome the incoming as we were welcomed-graciously. 75 Top rngu: Wineiuger. Stearns Bostic. Iiaurfh rmu: Dennison, Sutter Terry.

Opinion INDING its place in the sun this year has been the lot of THE PEORIA OPINION, official newspaper of Peoria High School, for it has moved from the black-hole, its old pressroom, to a roomy, well-lighted building of its own on Michigan Avenue, across from the school and opposite the athletic field. The building was painted and redecorated and now contains a newsroom, composing room and classroom where the journalism classes meet to discuss and write stories for the paper. The journalism class is now able to meet in a laboratory style and write its stories under the leadership and guidance of the instructors, Miss Dorothy Crowder and Earl F. English. This year for the third time THE OPINION has been awarded an International Honor rating by Quill and Scroll, international honor society for high school journalists. One of the highest honors given high school newspapers in the country was won by THE OPINION with an All-American award in the contest of the National Scholastic Press association. Another award was garnered by THE OPINION when the Columbia Press association awarded the paper a First Class blue ribbon. Out of a possible 1000 points, THE OPINION totaled 880. Since the beginning of THE OPINION forty-seven years ago it has become one of the most completely equipped high school print shops in the country. In addition to its three Linotype and Intertype machines, mat roller, make-up forms, electric saw, routing machine, job press and type cases, last year it purchased a Monotype machine for casting individual pieces of type for hand set work. For the first time in the history of THE OPINION it has its own camera, purchased by Student Council, and cameraman. Bob Wolber has charge of taking pictures while the faculty adviser is Huber Sammis. Under the leadership of this year's staff many changes have been made in the make-up of the paper. The name plate was changed from Kabel type to that of Old English. THE OPINION felt that since it has been in existence for forty-seven years a name plate of this nature might help to connote the paper's many years of service to the school. 79 Opinion HIS year, for the first time in its forty-seven years of existence, THE OPINION printed a special Christmas edition of twenty pages, the first eight was the regular news section, section two was the Christmas supplement of eight pages printed on green paper, and the last four was a special sports section. On Thursday and Friday, March 12 and 13, THE OPINION struck a new note in Peoria High journalistic history by supplying the school with complete coverage of the Peoria sectional tournament by issuing a paper on both days. Friday's paper contained a complete account of the game played the night before with a box score and detailed description of the game in which Peoria downed Colchester. This year THE OPINION has established a precedent for future papers in that it has taken sport pictures as late as Thursday night, had the pictures developed and engraved and put in the paper for the next day. The local newspapers, The Peoria Star and The journal-Transcript, have been especially helpful in lending THE OPINION mats and cuts for reproduction. Through the co-operation of the students in buying tickets to see Charles Vance, magician, the staff was able to go to Milwaukee, Wisconsin, on December 5, 6 and 7 to attend the annual convention of the National Scholastic Press Association. Those who took the trip were Bud Briggs, jim Rindfuss, joe Hession, Don Wollett, Art Szold, Howard Andrews, jeanne Swann, Virginia Sefton, Ella Lawton and Mr. and Mrs. English. Again this spring the staff sold doughnuts so that it could go to the Medill Press contest held at Northwestern University May I and 2.

A unique contest was held in the lunch hour assemblies in which Bob McCord was chosen assistant sport editor, sports questions were asked from the stage by Art Szold, sport editor and Bud Briggs, editor-in-chief, and the person answering the most ques- tions was chosen as assistant sport editor for next year's staff. During this year jack Carney and jack Heschong served as news editors. News stories were written by the newswriting classes. Columnists included Wallace Chessman, feature writer, Mary Jane Dempsey, Knockin' 'Em Out, Clara Walsh, feature writer, jean Doughty, Birthdays, joe Hession, The Zitherino, Frances Stutzman, Stutz- man Asks , Bob Leu, How We See It from the Bleachers , june Newsam, Alumnae, Mildred Lindeburg, Seen in the Shops, Virginia Gulick, Book Report , Ted Reese, Would You Believe It ?

As such, it is willing at all times to consider the wishes of the student body and pass legislation which will benefit the majority of the students. Notable among the achievements of the past year has been the splendid cooperation of the Council with the school administrators. A maximum number of Social Hours has been held this year by the permission of Prin- cipal H. Brewer. All of the proceeds derived from the Social Hour Assembly has been turned over to a special Projection Machine fund with the thought of purchasing a suitable sound projection machine for the auditorium. Permission was obtained from the Board of Education to open the Book Exchange at the beginning of the second semester in order to again provide a method for students to dispose of their used text books at their own price. This service has proved very popular. The third annual Stu- dent Directory was published by the Directory committee with the assistance of the OPINION. The paid assemblies were again chosen by the council. Representatives of P.H.S. council have attended all lntra-City Council meetings and have taken an active part. For the second year delegates were sent to the State Association of Student Councils, held at Pekin, Illinois. Other activities that have been carried on are: Making assembly announcements, sponsoring pep assemblies, providing materials for the prefects, conducting elections, and placing conduct signs in the corridors. 82 CAPTAHYS OF PREFECTS Sf0lldI'lI!l.'

The Body Guard consists of one magistrate, one praetorian, ten captains, and approximately sixty prefects. The average number for each hour of the school day is seven. The duties of the members are to collect absence slips, to require that anyone passing through the halls during classtime has a pass, to direct traffic on the stairs, to collect tickets for assemblies, to maintain discipline during social hours, to layout and paint trafhc signs, and to assist in running errands for the office and the deans. Members of the Body Guard serve the school without hope of reward and without school credit. Absence from school is at a minimum and many of the personnel are on the Honor Roll regularly. Much credit must be given to the Body Guard for its tireless, unselfish effort to keep the school in excellent condition. Plans are being made to equip the force with a new type of arm badge which will be both distinctive and useful. The student body as a whole has learned to respect and admire the members of their police force, and many names are on the application list waiting for the next opening. 83 Martin.

The membership was larger than in previous years, and great interest was displayed by the members in all of the club's activities. jusendra attempts to achieve two main purposes: first, to train students in the rudi- ments of dramatics and the technique of the theatre, second, to arouse interest and uncover new talent in all forms of speech activity, such as declamatory oratory, extem- poraneous speaking, original oratory, and humorous and interpretative dramatic reading. Every member of the club is eligible to try out for any play or speech contest, according to the point system, if his work is satisfactory. jusendra instituted a new plan for admitting new members this year. All students were required to appear in public try-outs and sight-read a number of dramatic selec- tions. If the student displayed a reasonable amount of talent and interest, he was admitted to the club. This new procedure was introduced in order to have only interested students in the club's membership. More active members than ever before have given much time and energy to the year's productions. jusendra has presented numerous programs for the school assem- blies, and three major evening performances open to the entire student body. The club has also sent contestants to the inter-school speech contests held throughout the state, including the sub-district contest of the Illinois High School Speech League at Cantong the district contest of the Illinois High School Speech League at Macombg the state contest S4 illusenrllra of the Illinois High School Speech League at Urbana, the state contest of the National Forensic League at Lincoln, the invitational contests at MacMurray College, jacksonville, Illinois, the invitational contests at Illinois Wesleyan University, the Big Twelve meet at Pekin, the national N. F. L. meet at Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. Peoria Central won first at the sub-district meet at Canton, and placed high at other contests in which it was entered. jusendra has furnished programs for the meetings of various civic organ- izations. Speakers were also sent to the Safety Council, an organization formed to pro- mote safe driving among young people of high school age. Variety was added to the regular monthly meetings of jusendra by the introduction of a one-act play at nearly every meeting. This proved very popular and created much interest. Early in the year Mr. Charles Barnum, publicity manager of the Peoria Players, spoke to the members of the club. The members voted to have one major three-act play, The Cat and The Canary , an evening production, which was given Thursday and Friday, April 23 and 24. A group of three one-act plays was presented to the student body as an evening production late in May, and another one-act play was presented by a select cast for the enjoyment of the Big Twelve contest in Pekin, also in May. Last year lusenclra instituted the plan of having an annual banquet as a conclusion of the yearis activities. This banquet, last year, was held at the jefferson Hotel, with Mrs. Frank Gillingham Morrill as the principal speaker. About one hundred members of Jusendra attended this banquet. Plans are now being made to continue the custom thus established by concluding this year's activities with a similar banquet.

Fourteen separate acts were offered for the approval of the audience, every one containing solely local school talent. Cash prizes were given to the most popular acts, and the terrible events were given the gong . Cart- wright's orchestra was on the stage, and played at intervals throughout the performance. Bob Cartwright was the master of ceremonies. First prize in this competition went to Nelson and Bickle, a team of clever dancers. Second prize was awarded to Shirley Van Dolah, who did a series of clever imper- sonations. The third prize went to Caspar Came Home With Shoes On, a hill-billy meller-dramer written by joe Hession and presented by a group of ten senior boys. The fourth award was presented to McClintick and Carey, a two-girl singing team. Another entertaining feature of lusendra activities which has occurred since the last appearance of the CREST was the all boys musical comedy. Ali Baba of Bagdadf' which was presented to a packed house in the high school auditorium on graduation eve last year. This entire production was written and directed by Mr. A. L. Epstein. Few productions in recent years have been received with as much enthusiasm as was this colorful musical comedy. The story centered around a group of American tourists who became involved in unexpected diihculties in and near the mysterious old city of Bagdad. Space does not permit a full discussion of all of the one-act plays and other matinee performances of the year but it was generally agreed that this year's dramatic program was the most comprehensive of any for several years. se + Uf1p4'r r1Agf11f.'

This play, under the direction of Mr. David Owen, was presented on the evenings of Thursday and Friday, April 23 and 24. The new set bought by the Senior Class was used for the first time in this play. The scene for the first and third acts was the library of an old mansion, of Glencliff Manor on the Hudson River. The scene for the second act is a bed-room of the same old mansion. Of particular interest was the unusual lighting used in this play. There were no foot-lights used at any time during the play, all light coming from ten baby-spots. The parts in the play were taken by the following students: Annabelle West, the attractive young heiress, by jeanne Swann, Mammy'l Pleasant, the old family servant, by Betsy Hunter, Charlie Wilder, good looking young man in love with Annabelle, by Don Wollettg Paul jones, a bashful young horse doctor , by Joe Hessiong Harry Blythe, stolid, cynical man of thirty-five, by Frank Reichelderferg Roger Crosby, the old family lawyer, by Douglas Sherwin, Susan Sillsby, the prim, but sometimes hysterical cousin, by Doreen Young, Cecily Young, a romantic but timid girl, by Shirley Caplan, Hendricks, brutal, insane asylum guard, by Wally Chessman, Patterson, mysterious doctor, by More- land Wooleyhan. jim Brown was student assistant to the director.

From its incep- tion the club has had a very successful career. It meets regularly on the first Friday of every school month, at which time a program is given under the direction of the program committee. Actors are chosen through try-outs conducted by a student program com- mittee, Plays are student coached, and all other details such as costuming, stage setting, and lighting are taken care of by members of the club appointed for this purpose. In this way an attempt is made to give each member an active interest in the affairs of the club. The series of dramatic programs this year has been varied by a brain teaser contest and by a radio program of musical numbers. This year the club has been particularly fortunate in being able to secure Miss Geraldine Iler, of the Speech Department, to give a talk on The Art of Make-Upf' accompanied by practical demonstrations. This meet- ing was most enjoyable and profitable. In addition to the programs given at the regular meetings, the club has furnished two assembly programs. On account of our double session, the club is organized in two groups. The morning division is sponsored by Miss McGrath, and the afternoon division, by Miss Maxfield.

The parts were capably played by joe Murphy and Barbara Ann Weaver as George and Cora, Walter Klein as Billy Lawrence, and Hope Anderson as Marie Deverau, a charming French girl. Christmas Cheer, was the Christmas offering of the afternoon section of Cue Club, under the able direction of julia Kantor and Anna Sutter, Complications arise when it is learned that Dolly and Ted, who have been invited to spend the holidays in the home of the Terrells, have quarreled violently.

S THE symphony orchestra stands at the peak of instrumental music, the a cappella choir is the symbol of the very finest and most difficult of all vocal ensemble singing. lt is truly a vocal symphony and one cannot imagine anything more beautiful than the sound of voices blended in song without instrumental accompaniment. Peoria High School has an a cappella choir under the direction of Miss Katherine Jackson of which it can be justly proud. For two years, 1955 and 1954, the choir was first place winner in Big Twelve, and with the elimination of first, second, and third place ratings in the 1955 contest and group classification instead, it was a class A winner, thus it became a first place winner for three consecutive years. The 1955 and 1956 choir is the largest in the history of the school and one of the largest in the state with a membership of 127 students most of whom are juniors and Seniors, have had previous Glee Club and choral work, and show musical ability.

The choir is one of the most active organizations in school and throughout the year gives many concerts and programs. This year one of the major projects of the combined High School Music Departments was a series of Sunday afternoon Vesper Services given once a month with the a cappella choir appearing twice on these Vesper programs. One of the most distinct honors conferred upon the choir this year was its being asked to furnish the choral program for the lecture of Dr. Kagawa, the noted Japanese political and religious leader who spoke before a large audience at the Shrine Temple. Last year at the close of the Big Twelve music contest, the combined a cappella choirs presented a Festival Program. A group of sixty members of the Peoria High a cappella choir was one of three of the choirs selected to sing a group of songs, then the combined choir sang a group of songs under the direction of Dr. Earl V. Moore, Director of the School of Music at the University of Michigan. The combined choirs will present a similar festival at Big Twelve this year and the members of the choir are anxiously looking forward to the singing again under the inspirational direction of Dr. Moore. All members of the choir give a great amount of their leisure time to the many pro- grams and concerts the group presents and deserve much credit for their accomplishments.

HE first specialized singing groups to be organized in high schools were boys' and girls' glee clubs, for the purpose of acquainting the students with the best in choral music and giving them training in a way in which they might better use their leisure time. Peoria High has long had such groups and they have brought many honors to the school. The Girls' Glee Club consists of fifty junior and senior girls all of whom have previously sung in Freshman and Sophomore chorus. They sing some of the finest music written and arranged for women's voices and they give many programs throughout the school year. Each year a group of thirty girls selected from the Girl's Glee Club has entered the Big Twelve Music Contest and has won many honors for Peoria High School. The girls were class A winners last year in Big Twelve, and will sing again this year at the contest to be held in Pekin. The Glee Club is made up of about sixty boys most of whom have previously had chorus experience and not one who does not thoroughly enjoy doing his bit to make beautiful music no matter whether it be a solemn sacred song or a rollicking sea chanty. Peoria High School had another Class A winner at Big 12 last year in the Boys' Glee Clubg thus it was made Class A winner in all three choral events. The credit for these honors belongs to the music instructor, Miss Katherine jackson. til RIXS Gl.lClC f'l,llIl lylzrrtin, P u t n a in, Miller, Nicliell, llurrlick.

Small Ensembles URING the past three years a new extra curricular activity in the form of small vocal ensembles has become very popular. These small ensembles ,in the form of madrigal singers, single and double quartettes, single, double and triple trios and mixed quartettes rehearse after school, sing for luncheon clubs, Parent-Teacher Association meetings, and assemblies and in the Spring take part in the Big Twelve music festival. They are ably directed by Miss Katherine jackson who spends much time outside of school hours with these activities. The first of these ensembles to be organized was the madrigal singers, a group of eight singers, four boys and four girls, who follow the custom of early English singers, that of sitting around a table and singing without accompaniment or direction. They take their name from the Madrigals, the type of song they sing, which was the first type of music written to be sung without accompaniment. This group was one of the first of its kind to be organized in a high school, and in the three years since it was first organized has become more and more popular. Each year the personnel of the group is changed due to vacancies caused by graduation, but the organization remains and has won itself a permanent place in the Music Department. Membership in this group as well as in all small vocal ensembles is determined by a series of try-outs held early in the school year and the members are usually also members of the a cappella choir or glee clubs. The Madrigal singers, boys quartette, double quartette, trio and double trio will enter Big Twelve at Pekin. In addition there will be two new ensembles this year, a freshmen girls ensemble and a double trio of sophomore girls. Last year all of our small ensembles entered the Big Twelve contest held at Pekin. The madrigal singers, boys quartette, boys double quartette and girls trio were class A winners and our mixed quartette was a winner in Class B. The boys quartette is another very busy and very popular ensemble. They have been called upon many times to furnish programs for clubs and organizations. 93 MADRIGAL SHN FFRQ Left lo riglifr Marque Reichel derfer, Rauch, VVaggoner Hoot man, Spencer Gamble Hes Applehy.

An event to which the members of the orchestra long look forward every year is their annual concert, which takes place in the middle of May. Through the efforts of Irving Bradley, baton wielder, the orchestra has become one of the finest musical organizations in the school.

This hobby is both recreational and educational as it affords relaxation and profitable use of leisure time and it may be pursued quite inexpensively. A stamp collection may be regarded as a miniature art gallery. A stamp club, then, is a desirable extra-curricular activity in any school. Ours meets twice a month to discuss topics of philatelic interest, to hold auctions, to buy and sell, and to view the collections exhibited by the members. These meetings are well attended and are a stimulus to all in increasing their interest in the subject and in enlarging their collections. Soeiall Seiieiuree Clliuilb Sarah Ann Michell, Presidentg Franklin Jones, Vice-President, Elizabeth johnson, Secretary-Treasurer HE Social Science Club was organized in 1923 to stimulate interest in the study of social science and to encourage its members to become active and intelligent citizens. In the meetings of the past year the members have discussed many of the difficult problems that we as a nation are facing. Speeches by Mr. Freeman on Conditions in the Far East, Mrs. Braun on Siberia as Seen from the Trans-Siberian Railway, and Mr. Maticka on juvenile Delinquency and the Work of the Big Brother Movement in Peoria were very interesting. Mr. Heghin, the able sponsor, reviewed the book Forty Days on Musa Dagh . This was a rare treat as he knew many of the characters in the book personally. Those mainly responsible for the Pathfinder , the Club's official pub- lication, were Frances Stutzman, Mary jo johnson, Prenda East, Jessie Glabe, and Robert Cartwright.

The meetings were held at the homes of the various mem- bers in the evening. A variety of programs were presented at the meetings. Since Ger- many is the fatherland of many world-famous composers, as Bach, Beethoven, Mozart, and Wagner, the lives and works of these men were discussed. A musical memory con- test and a German play were given at two of the meetings. At another of the meetings members of the third year German class conducted a very interesting discussion of Schiller's play, Wilhelm Tell. At the close of the regular meetings, German folk songs were sung. All of these programs were instructive as well as entertaining. French Club President, Mary Daglasg Vice-President, Laura Bornholdtg Secretary, Jeanne Swann, Treasurer, Becky Peters IVE la Fleur de Lyr! is the motto of the members of this popular club. The club, under the sponsorship of Miss Bunch, aims to familiarize students with practical, conversational French and also acquaint them with French games, songs, and customs. At the meetings, which are held frequently at the homes of the members, students forget English and speak French. For entertainment, there is everything from brain teasers, all in French, of course, to puppet shows. The program is always followed by tempting refreshments. As a grand finale for the year, a banquet is held. 97 CHARYICE Tof' raw: Linder. Owens. Miss Co nock.Bornholdtfihamberlin j Pl v Bunting, Nl ich e l l, Fischer. i Lidle. Fifth row: Swann. Molnar.

Uhairviioe President, Lucille McClintickg Vice-President, Lois Dobbins, Secretary, Elizabeth Fischer HE girls of Charvice pledge themselves to active participation not only in all projects fostered by Charvice but in all activities sponsored by other organizations of the school. They usher at Parent-Teachers meetings and other evening entertainments, they assist in the library, and they help in the Dean's office. By vote of the entire faculty, members are elected into this honor society on a basis of outstanding character and a willingness to serve. Sponsors of Charvice are Miss Hayes, Miss Coppock, lVLiss Wilde, Miss Ottenheimer, and Miss Wilson, with whom the girls meet regularly the second Thursday of each month. Promerito President, Harold Feigenbaumg Vice-President, George Fanning, Secretary-Treasurer, Deane Richardson ROMERITO was founded in Peoria High School in 1929. Sponsors at that time were Mr. Barloga, Mr. Burns, and Mr. Gobble. Promerito is the boys' honor society, established to encourage service and loyalty to Peoria High School. Members are elected from among those who have shown unusual activity in extra-curricular clubs, leadership around school, particular helpfulness to teachers, and are of high character. Candidates are nominated by members of the faculty from their classes and clubs, they are then passed on by the Principal and sponsors. The sponsors this year are Mr. Barloga and Mr. Wfesthoff. All sophomore, junior and senior boys are eligible. 98 l ?g SENIOR NATIONAL HONOR Senior National Honor Sooiiety ACH year fifteen per cent of the entire Senior class is elected to the National Honor Society. This is the greatest honor that a student can attain during his high school life. The qualities which a student must possess in order to be elected to this society are scholarship, character, leadership, and service. He must have demonstrated to the faculty that he has always had a good attitude toward school and study and that he has the ability to cooperate in all ways in order to further the interests of the school. The members of the faculty carefully consider the qualifications of students before a vote is taken. Each spring in Peoria High School the members are recognized in a special assembly held in their honor. 'J Junior Natiiona onoir Society HE membership of the Junior National Honor Society is taken from the advanced Freshman and the Sophomore classes. Due to the fact that members of these classes do not have much opportunity to display leadership and service, emphasis in this group is laid on scholarship and character. To become a member of this Society students must have an average of A or B in scholarship. Toward the end of the year the members are presented to the school and each is given a bow of four ribbons: gold for scholarshipg white for character, green for leadership, and blue for service. The purpose of the organization is to bring these ideals before the school as an incentive toward the best citizenship. Top rozr-.' Richardson, Leu. Fischer, Michell, De Trempe. Fisher, Brauer.

It is a club giving the girls who belong an opportunity to make new friends and to strive toward higher ideals. The name Tri-S stands for Social and Spiritual growth and for Service. These phases of activity signify the physical, spiritual and mental sides of life. The Girl Reserve Secretary at the Y.W.C.A., Miss Frances Vanderlinden, has been a faithful and enthusiastic friend of the club, giving much of her time to our activities. The Girl Reserve committee and the sponsors, Miss Edith Adele Lowry and Miss Lucille Waltmire, have also done much toward furthering the interests of the organization. The activities of the club include round-table discussions, handicraft, service work, health habits, devotional services, spreads, and programs with well-known speakers interested in Girl Reserve Clubs. Our meetings are held at the Y.W.C.A. One of the outstanding events of the year was the Girl Reserve Vespers held December 8, 1935, at the Central Christian Church. Another activity was a Christmas Party for a girls' club at the South Side Mission, December 27, 1955. On March 20, 1936, the High School Girl Reserve Stunt Show was held at the Y.W.C.A. The club's slogan and purpose is: To face life squarely and to find and give the best. This has served as an inspiration to all of the Tri-S Girls during 1935 and 1936 and has helped to create a better attitude toward life. Sehli if Ander on l 100 Galvin, VVollett.

Other organizations are started for intellectual or social reasons while the Hi-Y club claims one other reason as well as both those mentioned: This club primarily defends its aim toward better morals. The most outstanding accomplishment of the clubs this year was the fact that they made it financially possible to send two members of the club to the Older Boys' Conference held last year at Rock Island, Illinois. Each club owes its own successful results to Mr. Lange and Mr. Clifford, the sponsors of the clubs. 101 .S'tnudz'ng: left to. right Adcock Mr. Lange, Stier XX eyeneth Seated: left to right Parry Ber nington, Hippe, Royalty Oes terle.

One of these was through the Keystone Steel and Wire Company and another was through the Caterpillar Tractor Company. Some field trips were also taken. Through the work and cooperation of the student members and the sponsors much interesting information which time does not allow to be taught in the classrooms has been presented. The programs have included many demonstrations and reports in the various fields of science.

The answer is Piczzzrer. The Visual Aids Club believes with one who wrote more than two hundred years ago that A learner cannot learn through words alone , and they realize with another of the sages that the eye is the most retentive of all the sense organs. Take out Pirlurer and much of the pleasure of life disappears. These are a few of the reasons for the Visual Aids Club. Club members this year have operated the 16 MM projector showing educational films in the classrooms of twenty-six teachers. Various members work during all periods of the day. Films come primarily from the University of Illinois Visual Aids Service. Next year our high school will deposit another film with the University for this service. Recently the club affiliated with International Educational Pictures, Inc., for Motion Pictures of the World and its People. Through it, films are available for classroom use concerning all countries in art, biography, entertainment, history, industry, nature, science, sports and transportation. A future plan of the club is, as soon as 3125 more are available, to purchase a high powered nlm projector and a dalite screen.

Members daily serve the school, operating its public address system including the microphone and the playing of records before and after assemblies. They also assist in showing school movies, they operate the spot light for certain assemblies, plays, and other school functions such as Amateur Night and Senior Hop . Being on the crew affords a good opportunity for learning the operation of motion-picture projectors and sound amplifiers. Several sound movies were shown this year during the social hours to secure funds for the purchase of a new sound motion-picture projector. Although the final goal has not yet been reached, advancement made has meant a successful year for the crew. A sound-movie Qwith a rented machinej has become a regular and popular feature of the monthly social hours. Stage Crew EMBERSI-HP on the Stage Crew entails great and sincere service to our school. The duties of this group are those of painting and shifting scenery, taking care of the stage and dressing rooms, serving in the regular fifteen minute assemblies, and at all plays presented on our stage. A stage electrician is appointed whose duty it is to arrange lighting effects. Few people realize the amount of time or labor the boys contribute. Their work is done after school. Many times it is necessary for them to be called from study halls to set the stage for an assembly programg thus they sacrifice the time needed for preparation of their lessons and must get them outside. Much credit for good stage productions must go to the liard-working stage crew. The boys themselves gain a very valuable experience from their work. 104 VVl1isenunil, Davis, Mr. Stephens. iuiiillll and Scroll UILI. and Scroll, international society of high school journalists, has an active chapter at Peoria High School. Membership is the result of a student's having done outstanding work on a school publication while holding a scholastic position in the upper one-third of his class. Each year the Peoria Henry M. Pindell chapter of Quill and Scroll holds a formal initiation in the assemblies and an informal banquet. This year's festivities are to be held in the new building. This year the official magazine, Quill and Scroll, carried an article written by Bud Briggs, OPINION editor, concerning the recently-acquired new home for journalistic work in Peoria High School. Pictures of the new building accompanied the story. National headquarters of Quill and Scroll are at Northwestern University, where the national secretary criticizes the best writing of each applicant before he is taken into the organization. Dramatic Honor Society EN years ago Dramatic Honor Society was organized, originally for the purpose of giving distinction to those who had done excellent work in jusendra productions, now, however, it honors any person who has shown outstanding ability in any dramatic production given in P. H, S. Members are selected by a committee of three faculty members, one of whom, Miss Elizabeth Fieselman, is the society's sponsor. To be elected to Dramatic Honor Society is one of the highest honors that can come to a student and those who have been selected have worked diligently to be worthy of the honor.

Crest Stag NOTHER CREST is completed! In their efforts to attain perfection the members of the Staff have spent many enjoyable hours in Room 214, their headquarters, At the beginning of the year, when we were unaware of the work that was before us, we would saunter in and spend a half hour or so and then go leisurely on our way. But we were quickly broken of that habit. Pictures to be takeng work to the engraver, deadlines for our sections. All these important details are habit breakers. All of us are now used to long hours of work. But the CREST Staffs activities have not been work alone this year. There have been numerous merry get-togethers. Some of them were the treasure-hunt held at the home of the editor-in-chief, Ellen june Thompson, the St. Patrick's Party given by Mrs. Hale, our sponsor, and our Spring picnic. One of the biggest events of the year was the CREST campaign. It started off literally with a bang. A gun was fired in the rear corridor of the school. Everyone was kept in suspense as to what the explosion was for until the CREST Assembly soon after. The Assembly was a huge success this year largely through the efforts of Mr. Epstein who wrote and directed all the skits and songs, and gave a great deal of his valuable time to us. Frank Reichelderfer and Moreland Wooleyhan are two regular fellows who gave us their services also in their clever Gallagher and Shean take-off. Miss Alice Cary, the school accompanist, kindly played for our songs both for rehearsals and for the assemblies. Last November 21 and 22 the editor-in-chief and business manager attended the annual convention of the Illinois State High School Press Association held at Champaign. At the convention the CREST was honored by receiving the vice-presidency of the Association. This year for the first time, the CREST sent a delegation to the National Scholastic Press Association held in Milwaukee, December 5, 6, and 7. All who went gained information and inspiration and had a grand time. To our sponsors, always ready to help us, go in every way, endless thanks: Mr. Murphy, business advisorg Miss Mahoney, art advisor, and Mrs. Hale, literary advisor. 106 Left to right: East, Gardner, Musser, Reese, Mr. Murphy, Ross, Bunting, Miss Mahoney, Wolber.

This year's teams were no exceptions and they further established Doc's reputation as one of the leading prep school coaches of Illinois. This year Central's coaching staff was augmented by the addition of Mr. Noppen- berger, assistant football coach, and Mr. Bockwitz, coach of the golf team. The staff is now composed of seven men, each a specialist in his own line, and each has turned out a ine team to show for the year's work. Standing: Mr. Bockwitz, Mr. Klingel, Mr. English, Mr. Myers. Seated: Mr. Trimble, Mr. Herke, Mr. Noppenberger Mr. Trimble, baseball coach, produced a third place baseball team in the Big 12 as well as a Big 12 championship team in reserve basketball and a very successful reserve football team. Mr. Noppenberger, former athletic director at Spalding Institute, assists Doc Herke in coaching the football team. He worked mainly with the line and built up a very efficient forward wall. Mr. Klifzgeff job is turning out winning swimming teams, this he does very consistently. His swimming team this year won the Big 12 championship for the third year in a row and placed high in the state meet. Winning track teams are becoming a tradition at Central and Mr. E12 glifla is the man responsible for them. The team again won the Peoria Armory Meet and the Greater Peoria Meet along with other victories. Not enough praise can be given Mr. Meyerf for the sensational showing of his tennis team which didn't lose a match all season and placed several men high in the state meet. Mr. Bockwitz, a newcomer to the coaching staff, turned out a fine golf team in his debut. With eight victories and two defeats they made a very impressive showing. 111 Football Played 10 XVon 7 Lost 3 Central ...... 19 Kingman ......

Central, while not appearing overly impressive, played straight football to come away on the long end of a 19 to 0 count. X Next game Kewanee came to town to engage the Hunters in one of the season's thrillers. Though the Boilermakers vanquished the locals 13 to 12, the game was well-played for an early season engagement and was a great crowd-pleaser. Hamilton, rated as one of the best tackles in the Big 12, revived Central's hopes for a while in the final quarter when he blocked a Kewanee punt, picked it up, and raced 50 yards to score. tt tl' tt After losing a tough one to Kewanee, Central made a great comeback to avenge last year's defeat at Streator. They thoroughly outplayed the Bulldogs to win 19 to 0. X tt Following the Streator victory came the 12 to 0 victory over the Roosevelt Military Institute of Aledo. tt Centralls second defeat 112 TUNTAS GETS OFF A LONG ONE IN THE MANUAL GAME of the season came at the hands of the powerful Mattoon team. Central scored first after a 50-yard march goalward but were vanquished by Mattoon 21 to 6. if if Seemingly not over the effects of their defeat by Mattoon, the Hunters lost the next game to Spring- Held, 26 to 12. Central had hopes of victory over their Big 12 rivals when they marched 70 yards for a touchdown on the opening kickoff, but Springfield's passing attack couldn't be beat. if 'f The following week the Maroons resumed their winning ways and trounced DePue 12 to 0. One of the noticeable features of the game was Centralls improved pass defense, the lack of which was in a large way responsible for their previous defeats. PF it if Nearing the end of the season, the Hunters wererapidly reaching their peak. In the Spalding game, although Spalding scored first on an intercepted lateral, there was never much doubt as to the outcome. Central steadily outcharged the Purple and won easily 27 to 7. In this game Spalding was held to a net gain of -5 yards. at tg at With their attack still going strong the Maroons traveled to Pekin for the most exciting game played there for several years. It was a nip and tuck affair up to the final minutes of the game, then with four minutes to play co-captain johnny Tuntas ran 65 yards for a touchdown, and two plays later, Dick Dailey, Central's speed merchant, scored on a 55-yard sprint.-Final score was 19 to 13. :lf if 'K Following their inspired victory over Pekin, they engaged their ancient Big 12 and inter-city rivals, Manual, on Thanksgiving morning. In this game johnny Tuntas again brought the crowd to its feet with a great 80-yard sprint to the goal assisted by some of the best blocking of the year. This was Central's first victory over Manual in four years and one of the hardest fought battles ever held between the two schools. This victory ended the season for another great Central football team.

Bob is a typical example of the light Central exhibited throughout the season. He will be lost by graduation. Bois PINCUSV--Although his hrst year on the squad he played like a veteran. As a guard he seldom met his superior and turned in many fine games. SAM PIENDOLA-SZIITI also played guard. He played his hardest and was seldom out-charged by an opponent. He will be back next year to furnish more of his rugged opposition for Central's opponents. DICK DAILIA'--A speedy little halfback. He excelled in broken held running and had several long runs to his credit, including his 55-yard touchdown sprint in the Pekin game. LOGAN EUBANKS-Logan alternated with Bouton at the center post. He put his best into the game, and always displayed quick thinking on the field. He is a senior and his graduation leaves a big gap in the center of the line. JACK DIGMAN-JHCk was another of our hard-playing guards who always played his position well. He developed greatly during the season and was constantly applauded because of his hard and clean playing.

Bill Hart, head cheerleader, has been on the group for four years and received his letter for this service. His graduation this year takes him out of this service. The only other member to graduate is Chuck Hausam, a newcomer to the squad who proved quite valuable. The cheerleaders' most noble contribution to the school was the pep assembly before the Central-Canton sectional game. This was the largest pep meeting ever held at the school. Congratulations to the cheerleaders for the valuable service rendered the school. Managers ILL Conway's group of managers have the responsibility of taking care of Central's athletic equipment. They receive little recognition for the multitude of tasks they perform. jack Scheel, the senior manager, handled the equipment at the out-of-town games. Scheel was the only member of the squad who will not be back to help Conway next year. jack received his letter for his outstanding service to the school. Gthers besides Scheel who were of great aid to the school were Rodman Thompson, not in picture, who acted as manager of the swimming team, Don Case was the assistant basketball manager, john Titus was football manager, and Bill Feuchter was baseball manager.

They won the regional tournament at Princeville, won third place in the sectional tournament of which they were hosts at the Peoria Armory, and won the Bloomington Invitational tournament during the Christmas holidays. They piled up one hundred sixty-tive points in the four games of the Bloomington tournament. In this tournament Jack Christian averaged twenty points a game. This year Central beat Manual for the first time in six years. They won the first game 25 to 24. The Hunters led most of the game but had to beat off a frenzied Manual rally in the closing minutes of the game to win. The second game they won more deci- sively by a score of 37 to 32. In this game Co-captain Bob Leu scored 18 points. Considered one of the fastest teams in the state, they showed a great amount of Class all season. Up to the semi-finals of the sectional, when they were defeated in a 30 to 28 overtime by Can-ton, they were a strong favorite for the state championship. They won the third place position in the sectional by defeating Macomb in a bril- liant exhibition of passing and shooting. They scored at will and averaged two points a minutes, the results being: Central 62, Macomb 18. Staudhzg: Steidinger, Sutton, Groetzinger, Huber, Xllasson, Powers.

Beginning the season, Trimble's team lost a 25 to 23 overtime tilt to the Gales- burg ponies. The team staged an uphill fight but lost a disappointing game. The game against Canton was a different story with Central coming out on top. Central then lost to Streator and to Manual before starting the winning streak. The successes numbered victories over such strong teams as Pekin, Manual, Farmington, Streator, Springfield, and Roosevelt junior High. Three of the members advanced to the regular team during the latter part of the season. Those who played on the varsity were Steidinger, Johnson, and Spaninger. The members of the team were johnson and Steidinger, speedy forwards, Spaninger and Williams steady guards, and Briggs, a lanky center.

In this meet Captain Chuck Farnum tied for second place. This is deserving of much recognition because of the high grade of competition which is encoun- tered in any Big Twelve Meet. Their record includes victories over Kingman three times, Spalding twice, Manual, Urbana, and Pekin. Defeats were suffered at the hands of Bloomington and Manual, and a tie was played with Manual. Four men, Captain Farnum, Hall, Modjeska, and Yates saw active service during the season and were awarded letters.

HE Girls' Athletic Association was founded in 1916 and has grown to a member- ship of over one hundred. For two years the association has been a member of the State Athletic Association. This fact has made the local membership more inviting to the girls. Besides stimulating interest in sports, the Athletic Association aims to stand- ardize and promote ideas of health and sportsmanship. This is done through organized activities, hikes, and social events. By belonging to the Illinois League High School Athletic Association many lasting friendships are formed with girls from other cities. The association as a whole is based on an adapted point system, a certain number of points being awarded for each activity inside and outside of school. For winning six hundred points the girls are awarded a very attractive gold Girls' Athletic Association ping for twelve hundred points a school letter is given. The state association presents two awards, one for sixteen hundred points and another for two thousand points. The Letter girls act as an advisory group: along with the officers and faculty sponsor, they constitute the Advisory Board of the Girls' Athletic Association. The girls are very active and have shown good sportsmanship, they are good students and good athletes. Besides the sports activities, the social activities are also a part of the G. A. A. program. This year G. A. A. gave a banquet for more than one hundred and fifty girls. The banquet was held in the school cafeteria. Mrs. Vera Kraft Noble, the state manager of G. A. A., was guest and speaker, Other activities of the Girls' Athletic Association include hikes, steak fries, and roller skating parties. 126 N Left to riylzt: -Linder, Hoffman, D ohnson.

HE Sponsor of G. A. A. at the beginning of the year was Miss Phyllis Long: she left P. H. S. on February 21 to be married. Miss Long will be remembered by G. A. A. for her loyalty, faithfulness and for skill in her work. She won the hearts of every girl who knew her and worked with her. ' Miss Amy Wolff, the new girls' gym teacher who takes Miss Long's place, has entered with a will upon her duties as head of the Physical Education Department and has taken over enthusiastically the sponsorship of the G. A. A. Tennis takes its place in the spring. The team is made up of four girls, two singles and a doubles team. Much recognition should be given the girls' tennis team for in the past three years they have won all their matches played with other schools. The following girls were members of the team this year: Evelyn I-Ialler, Clarice Younglove, Lois Miller, and Betsy Hunter. G. A. A. sponsors a tennis tournament every year. The succeeding seasons of the year bring basketball, volleyball, track, tennis, and ping pong tournaments which G. A. sponsors. Basketball and volley-ball are two of the most popular activities, over ninety-five girls took part this year in each activity. The tournament for volley-ball was held during the months of October, November, and December. The basketball tournament was held during January, February, and March. By dividing the girls into a number of teams this plan gives every girl a chance to play. A name is given to each team and a captain is also elected. The members of the winning team receive twenty-five points. Track is the last event of the year. This year the work in track started during the month of May. 127 TUMTBLTNG T011 1'01'c': Hunt, lloiclr, Zrlenfel. .llfddlc 1'0ft'.' Ncincll, lliirlluirt, llilllllljllll, Nelson. Franck, Schlipf.

This year the girls gave a tumbling program during one of the fifteen-minute assemblies. They entertained the students with acrobatics and pyramid building, to the great delight of all. Baseball proves to be as popular as any of the other sports, over one hundred girls take part in the tournament which is held each spring. The girls usually look forward to this sport as it is held out-of-doors. Many teams make up the tournament, a captain is appointed for each team. Also a manager is chosen to act as the umpire. The picture above represents an exciting moment in a game held in the girls' gym. Laura Henry is the umpire, Maxine Abel tags Peggy Fleming out at home plate, Frances Stutzman waits her turn at bat while Allyne O'Donnell, Marjorie Herrmann, and Ruth Horst look on. The Physical Education Department, directed by the girls' gym teacher who is also the sponsor of G. A. A., offers an interesting and varied program to all girls who are required to take two years of physical education. The untiring efforts of our gym teacher and her own individual skill make her an inspiring and efficient director of physical education and an understanding G. A. A. sponsor. Tumbling, apparatus work, soccer, dancing, group games, and posture work fill the year with new and interesting activity. Besides these, bowling and swimming classes are arranged for those interested. The girls' gym is one of the liveliest spots in P.H.S. 128 Loyal tcm Class Rcoom TYPING - FRENCH - SEWING 1 9 FEATURES I -vi mi -I Q lux H'- Q H -L! :uni :ul ii 'Ili llli . .. ll lil- hi Il ll ni 11 Il Il I- 117- IJ I9 U-'JI-1..r.H,,:.HJ'1i-IHJIG I Thy sons and daughters gather here To cheer for high school days I I I I 151 C A lL llf N D A R September Once again Mr. Brewer wel- X comes us back to P.
