May God cause the hearts of all nations to treasure the peace for which these boys gave their lives—a peace which we who remain should make sound and permanent. May we be inspired with vision and determination to make freedom a living thing, with justice to the humblest, be he black or white, foreign or native. These boys are forever blessed as the saviors of the freedom and righteousness which it is now our duty to maintain. Flight’s End Our swift flight through P.H.S. has ended —- we have reached our first destination. The ability and confidence gained on this trip will help us as we make future flights, seeking new and greater heights. SE Le Lo cat). KY i , lee a Df. AG VVVY)o fPVE MAD?

A miniature minstrel show by the girls’ and boys’ glee clubs, excerpts from operas by a school chorus, a sparkling ballet (ably directed by Mrs. Gertrude Epstein), modern music favor- ites by the girls’ choir, and climactic interpre- tation of sacred music by the a cappella choir combined to make this a memorable evening. Problem Father Senior Class Play In a reversal of the usual “problem-child” play, we chose as our Senior presentation, “Problem Father”. Don Locher humorously por- trayed the father with a world of revolutionary ideas for bettering the human race. Charmaine Evans as the mother, Clara Hubbard as the grandmother, and Lee Leman and Leigh Johnson as the daughter and son with excellent acting try uselessly to make him a normal man. | arty 2] - Bis et .

Football At the end of their season, the Maroon gridmen turned in a record of 5 wins, 4 losses, and 1 tie. Using a fast “pony back- field”, they always gave their opponents, winners and losers alike. a battle and a lot of worry. For a season opener, the Maroons met Springfield Feitshans and brought back a 26-0 win, which incidently gained them a fittting revenge for last year’s 25-13 defeat. Not waiting to be called on, the Maroon’s “pony backfield” opened up in the second quarter and continued at a furious pace until the gun. Chillicothe’s Gray Ghosts were the next victims of the Maroon onslaught. After being held to a 7-6 margin in the first half, the Maroons roared back to clinch:the victory 32-6. With their hopes and aims high, the Maroons next played Woodruff. The game was a see-saw affair until midway in the third quarter when Jim Robertson scooped up a Woodruff fumble, raced to pay dirt, but was called back as the ball was ruled dead. Later Woodruff converted a Maroon fumble into 6 points and carried off the victory. 3rd row—Mr. Noppenberger: Scherler. B.; Bong. B.: Joos.

Taking the kickoff, Bill Blackwell raced 82 yards for a touchdown. The Bulldogs never really recovered and another win was added to the Maroon record. With hopes of again upsetting a favored team, the Maroons next traveled to Springfield to meet a top Solon team, and held them to a 6-6 halftime deadlock. Paced by Jerry Slack, however, the Solons came back to hand the Maroons a 26-13 defeat. Don Morretto Back Bob Schmidt Got him, Don? Then the Maroons met Pekins’ Chinks and played to a 13-13 tie. For three quarters the score was 0-0, but both teams .capitalized twice in the fourth quarter. East Peoria came next on the list, and again the Maroons suffered a heart breaker. Picking up a Maroon fumble, East Peoria scored and converted making the score 13-6. Playing Danville for the first time, the Maroons left a good impression on them by defeating them 19-7. To finish the season, the Maroons handed their ancient rivals a thorough 31-0 defeat, which made the Ram’s season perfect with 10 losses and 0 wins. The Maroon Fr.-Soph. gridmen were Greater Peoria champs this year and will return next year to be added to the remain- ing Varsity members. With these as a nucleus, the hopes for next year are bright.

Appearing for the first time since 1931 at P.H.S., Cross Country made a successful comeback. Under the guidance of Glenn Schwartz, a former cross country man at Bradley and holder of the Bradley all time record in the mile run, ten fellows started the season’s drills. Gradually the drills became stiffer and the runs longer. As the season progressed and “Coach” was getting his team into condition for the annual Joy Cross Country Carnival, the hospital robbed the squad of one runner, while several others dropped out because of sore muscles. Five fellows made the trip to Joy, where they met five highly experi- enced teams and Monmouth, another beginning team. With what little experience they had, the fellows did a fine job. Returning next year are two lettermen, “Jake” Walker and Bill Pool, so the outlook is fairly bright. The team’s aim is to return to. Joy next season, bring home the class A trophy, and incidentally beat Rock Island.

Traveling to Kewanee, they revenged the 1944 defeat District Track Meet—2nd Place by handing the Boilermakers a 6212-50%2 defeat. Next came Gr. Peoria Track Meet—2nd Place the annual meet with Pekin, which decides the possession of the Big 12 Track Meet—7th Place “Fire Helmet”—P.H.S. retained it. With two wins to their credit, the P.H.S. cindermen turned their faces to Geneseo, and returned with a second place. Statistics pointed to a better team than the 1944 team, as Bloomington bowed to the Central Powerhouse. Unable to attend the Wheaton Relays, the fellows again journeyed to Kewanee for the first annual Kewanee Relays. The competition was stiff and the night cold. It was there that the team met disaster—“Bullet Bill” Blackwell pulled an a muscle which kept hinf inactive for the remainder of the season. The annual Delavan Track Carnival was next, and despite the loss of Bill, another trophy came home. Here again, disaster struck.as Bob Baker, our star hurdler, donned the Navy blues. With the loss of “Bake” and Bill, generally sure of 15 points, P.H.S. bowed to Pekin in the Greater Peoria and placed seventh in the Big 12. Although the latter part of the season wasn’t as good as the first, the 1945 Track Team was another top track crew in the history of P.H.S. Without the two losses, it would have topped last year’s record. Returning for the 1946 season are lettermen, among whom are Don Locher, discus and weight man, Bill Blackwell (who should really set some records) and Dick Roehm in the hurdle position. Peoria High has produced fine teams in the past, and the outlook for next season points to another. “Bullet Bill” finishes 1st 148 SDIORACINTRN j : i ; jv 150 Row 1: Johnson, E.; King, H.; King, F.; Cohen, B.; Smedman, D. Row 2: Harker, B.; Mr. Reeseman; Stewart, D.; Krag, P. Tennis The Maroon tennis ‘team coached by Harold Reesman broke even in dual meets this season with 4 wins and 4 losses. After dropping their starter to Pekin 6-0, the Maroons traveled to Lincoln to cop a 6-0 decision over the Railsplitters. Defeating Bloomington 5-2, the Maroons bowed to Decatur’s Big Reds 4-2. The Railsplitters again bowed 4-0, while Decatur handed us the 3rd defeat 4-2. Bloomington again fell before the Peoria rackets; but Pekin again won 4-2. Placing 2nd in the district, the Maroons traveled to State, where Stewart, Cohen, and Krag were defeated in the lst round. Placing. 3rd in the Big 12, the Maroons closed another chapter in the history of tennis at Peoria High. Returning next season are Cohen, King, Krag, and Harker, so the material is ready for another season of top competition. SCORES Won 4 Lost 4 Central eee 0 Pekin@ ao Centralen ao Lincoln ..... .

Golf Once again the Maroon linksmen carried on in the Central tradition and brought back many honors. They opened their season by defeating Pekin and continued in a winning stride, only to be downed once by Kewanee, a defeat which they later revenged by a 72-414 decision over the Boilermakers. After winning the district, the team went on to bring back 5th place in the State Tournament, repeating last season’s performance. The Big 12 being cancelled, the Maroons closed their season with 10 wins, 1 loss, Ist in the district, 5th in the state, and lst in Greater Peoria. The team consisted of Frank Van Auker, Don Sommer, John Merrill, Jim Love, and Lyle Gift. Love and Gift will be returning next year. It was coached by Mr. Van Deventer. Although only two are returning, we’ll have veteran Jimmy Love, who has constantly improved his golf and will probably bring back some individual honors. Row 2: Mr. Van Deventer; VanAuken, F.

Under the coaching of Mr. Yuhause, the team met and practiced at the Y. M. pool. Their first meet was with Danville (at Peoria) which they dropped 51-15. They then traveled to Bloomington for their second dual meet but dropped it also 53-12. Not discouraged, the fellows immediately set to work practicing for their next encounter, the Big 12. Once again they hit the road for Bloomington and returned this time with 3rd place honors. The following weekend was spent at Winnetka, where they competed in the State Meet. To close their first season they met East Rockford at Peoria but again dropped their meet 43-23. Although this wasn’t an exceptional season, as the scores show, the team developed more power and strength as time went by, and the competition at the State was the strongest in years. The outlook for next year is bright with four lettermen, Lyle Gift, Earl Loudenberg, Bill Bowen, and Jim Erkert returning. 152 : Swimming Captain Our Coaches | Blundell Barrett Noppenberger Myers Along with every team goes its managers of Sports Managers whom one seldom hears.
