Four long years ago we entered the doors of Polo High in search of higher learning. Some were just in search of higher living from the appearance of the report cards. We came through that Hrst year in good shape. We were initiated, had a picnic, and sponsored a dance. The following year we were Sophomores. That was what we were waiting for . . . soine one was below us. Not much going on that yearg We sat waiting for bigger and better things as Juniors. And they came-AH!-class rings! Big shots now! We presented a play, too. Some produc- tion, A Little Honey. Then in May, just to show the Class of 45 that we were good fellows, we threw a big banquet in their honor! It was a real party, too! Now our Senior year is here! We are the students who are supposed to know everything and really we don't know anything! We had our pictures taken for the Cycle this year! All of us sweet young THINGS! There was another class play- The High School Mystery -two nights and we tore the roof off the gym both nights! May 3 was the big night-the Senior Ball-Fun for all the school. The week after the Senior Ball those wonderful Juniors gave a banquet in our honor-Thanks, kids! At last the day came for which we had all struggled and worked. We graduated.--Never thought we would make it! So long!

THE HIGH SCHOOL MYSTERY 'The play must go on!' Yes, it was on the nights of November 29 and 30 that a group of shaky Seniors discovered how true those words were. Under the direc- tion of Miss Erla Harvey, our class produced a three-act mystery comedy, The High School Mystery. This was the story of a Senior class during the dress-rehearsal of their annual performance. Elizabeth Keefer played the part of Miss Fielding, the drama coach, who did her best to keep the play going. Laura Crowder, played by Donna Clayton, was the heroine whose one weak point was fainting, and Donna certainly got enough practice in that! Like all good plays ours had a comic character and who could play that better than Lola Jeanne Keckler. Remember when the maid, Dorothy Russell, came onto the stage in her dust cap? Louise Linkinhoker was Mary Lea, a spinster. Louise couldn't get in the door at play practice one night and kicked out a glass- still someone had to let her in! And you should have seen the poor woman sitting in front of Miss Jeffries fE1aine Gilbertj jump when Elaine screamed! Viola Mae Folk was a very sophisticated woman named Mrs. Reed. Tots ought to wear her hair on top of her head more often. Bob Moats was Earl Sayles, the romantic soul in our midst, and to quote Deryle Behmer, I'm the big bad wolf. CYou see he was our vil1ain.J Paul Butler was played by Bob Cunningham who really wasn't a bad father-eh Donna? Jack How- ard, known to us as Bob Cavanaugh, seemed to acquire the habit of scaring people to death and falling out of secret panels. Jason Shaw, the hillbilly sheriff, was Don Jones. What happened to Mr. Helander's cow, Don?? Jack Mann was our stage manager and he caused more unexpected laughs than we ever imagined-what with rabbit and pie to eat, and his trusty pipe wrench. THE SENIOR BALL Where was it? What was it? When was it? Those are only a few of the ques- tions that were asked about the simply super ball the Seniors gave this year. After a lot of oh's and ah's about the Senior's magnificent decorations, the compliments and all the questions, only a few were answered. The Senior Ball was held May third, and the anticipation of a grand time wasn't a let-down because it really was a grand affair. As you walked in, you saw at the opposite end of the gym, Polo's railroad tracks, then you discovered the idea of the decorations. Yes, it was the first block of Polo's business district. Jack Sweeney again furnished the ta-rah-rah-boom-te-a. All said and done it was the New Orleans Mardi Gras with the accent on Polo.

This girl is se- lected on the basis of four good qualities which are desirable in the making of a good citizen: Dependability-Truthfulness-Honestly-Punctuality Service-Cooperation-Helpfulness--Responsibility Leadership-Personality-Self Control-Initiative Patriotism-Unselhsh Loyalty to American Ideals Each student in the senior class may vote on three girls, whom they believe are best qualified as good citizens on the basis of the four points named. From the three girls receiving the highest number of votes, the faculty selects one girl to represent the school as our good citizen. Her name is sent to the Dixon Chapter of the D. A. R. and in turn to the D. A. R. headquar- ters. A drawing of one name in the spring, from the names of all the girls chosen in the state is made to decide who the good citizen representative from Illinois will be. Likewise, there are representatives from each of the forty-eight states for the good citizenship pilgrimage. In normal times the pilgrimage is given to the winning girl with all expenses paid by the national society. This year the winning girl will receive proper recognition, the award depend- ing on travel conditions, at the time Continental Congress is held. We, the seniors of 1946, are proud to add Lola Jeanne Keckler's name to the past winners of the D. A. R. award in Polo Community High School.

The Courtin' Darlene and Quint went out one night, To find a place a-lacking light, Quint picked her up 'bout half past three, In his dilapidated old Model T! He said hop in, my dear Sugar Plum, We may not get far: my car's on the bum, But hop in while I advance the spark, And we'll go out somewhere and park! The car had just come from the shop, It was a wreck and it had no top, The seat was made out of old mohair, With the springs stickin' up here and there! About these things they didn't care much, Their minds were just on love and such, Quint leaned over and pulled the choke, And they were off in a cloud of smoke! They bounced along for many a mile, On each face was the happiest smile, And after much country side they did pass, The darn wreck stopped-they were outta gas! Quint jumped out and made an inspection, The hole in the tank 'scaped not his detection, What a mess, said he to the pretty lass, It seems that we're clean out of gas! He paced the road in deep despair, It came to him now what he'd failed to repair, As he'd worked on the thing all last week, He'd forgotten to plug that blasted leak! It seemed this would be a costly blunder, For from the west came the sound of thunder, He said, I'll push this crate off the level, Then we had better run like the Devilli' Here, he said, you take my coat, Don't worry-I shed water like a goat. He told her things that were very flattering, During the times his teeth stopped chattering. For he was getting more wet and wet, CII this is possible I'm a-wondering yet,J Darlene got tired and soon fell down, So he carried her till they reached a town! When they reached the town he was wet and sick So she called for the doctor ever so quick, And they rushed him off in an ambulance, Because he needed attentiong needed it at once! Then she went to St. Anthony's every day, To see her guy and her respects to pay, But it nearly drove her to a frenzy, To see him lyin' there with the infiuenzy! Quint is up now and feeling quite well, And he and Darlene are gettin' along swell! In fact I saw them just the other day Out for a ride in his new Model A! -Bill Eddy C97 How we worked on the Cycle . . Annabelle Muench-Some Never Speak But Do Wisely.

Jack Sweeney and his orchestra furnished the music for this gala affair. Special guests for the evening were young people of college age who seemed to enjoy dancing as much as did the members of P. C. H. S. Something new in decorations was a sleigh, complete with harness for the horse and blan- kets to keep warm. This was placed in a setting of snow and pine branches at the north end of the gym, and seemed to add just the right touch of winter spirit. During the intermission a boys' quartet and Audrey Binkley sang several numbers while the orchestra prepared for another hour and a half of dancing. The strains of Good Night, Sweetheart, brought a much too hurried ending to a lovely evening. JR. SR. BANQUET Friday, May 10, was the night of the rollicking Junior-Senior banquet. It was just a circus! Really it was-the theme I mean! So we went back.to our childhood days of the ferris wheel, merry-go-round and roly-poly clowns. All had a mighty Hne time enjoying a second childhood. Junior Play Clean Sweep by Dana Thomas was presented by the Junior Class in April. It was a homey play, fast-moving and hilariously funny. The dialogue was smart and the situations novel.

The Juniors have more students on the honor roll than any other class. Of course, they have other interests than education. They like to have fun, too. From what we hear they had a swell time at their picnic, October 15. They- also cel- ebrated March 16, when they had a skating party in Dixon. The Seniors of '46 have no doubt that the Juniors will make fine Seniors. Good luck, Juniors! The future of P. C. H. S. is in your hands!

Sophomores Sophies, but don't let that nickname fool you. Theirs is the most energetic class in school, and they are always ready to do their bit for the old alma mater. The Sophomores have proven their spirit by outselling the school in the Polio benefit ticket contest. They held a rip - roarin' picnic at the White Pines State Park, October 12, 1945. Freshmen September-and with it come school days. Ah! How green those freshmen were. Now circumstances have alteredg all the mysteries of the school are unfolded. These same Frosh are now veterans of the school. They sponsored a dance at which every- one enjoyed himself. The intermission was all right, too. Marilyn Galor sang, Donna Heavener and Mary Anne Young danced and sang. They show promising signs of making the grade to the Sophomore year. Freshman Initiation October 16 was the date. 'Twas then that seventy-two wobbly kneed Freshmen were ushered into the gym and then the fun began! It was a glorious day for the Freshmen and not a few tears struck the floors of old Polo High and many were the cries of Those Mean Upper Classmenf' It was all in fun, Freshies, and for the next three years it's your turn, so take your spite out on the classes to come. For the initiation we also had a number of new teachers to welcome to our Brain Factory. They didn't seem to enjoy sweeping too much but, oh-can they sing! Then there were some upper classmen to join us. fSomehow they slipped through last year or have enrolled since.J They joined the ranks by being milk maids for the day or wearing the equipment of the football team. We Seniors are leaving, but here's to bigger and better initiations! Make the Freshmen crawl! Yeah!!! Advice to Hungry Wolves Many a young girl's cooking may taste Like a jar of six year old paste, But if you say one word wrong, There will be a noise like a gong- As a chunk of pie hits your face. -By Bill Gam. 1 13 D They take good pictures, too!

Winning but one game of seven, the team ended in the con- ference cellar, not a very nice place to be. The boys lackd weight this year and, also, could have used a little more experience. Not one boy had played varsity ball more than one year before this. Even though six games were lost, it is interesting to note that the team did not fail to score in any game of the year. , Boys earning major letters were: Donaldson, End, Sr. Miller, L., Guard, Fr.

In the center of the table was a replica of a football field. Miniature field lights, bleachers, team benches, and a two inch hot dog stand were on the field. The people and players were made of pipe cleaners and plaster of Paris. The players were in the school colors, and half were in red and white for the opposing team. Speeches were made by Lola Jeanne Keckler, G. A. A. president, Tom Buck, football captain for 1945, and by the new co-captains, Grant Landis and George Smith. Jeanette Lang was chosen Gridiron queen by the football boys. She was crowned during the all-school dance which took place after the banquet. - V C135 Left, Right, Left, Right, Track Polo's 1945 track team, one of the smallest in recent years, came through with a rather impressive record of a win, two seconds and had the distinction of seeing Jerry Stufl' set a new discus record of 132 feet 1051 in. This qualified him for state competi- tion. The Rock River Conference meet was held at Polo and was won by Morrison, Polo placed fourth, surrendering third to Amboy by one-half point.

They all had cold fingers, too cold to manipulate the keys on their instruments. But if you think they were cold, you should feel sorry for our six major- ettes with their short red costumes. This will be the last year for Viola Mae Folk as Drum Major, and they are going to miss her along with the rest of the best musicians who will not be back next year. As a special treat, the band went to Mt. Carroll-weather cold, had a fine time singing on the way up and back. T wirlers Six girls came out to be majorettes this year. They were: Mary Lea Donaldson, Jeanette Lang, Mary Ann Young, Betty Peters, Peggy Anderson, and Janice Dauphin.. Mary Lea was head twirler. Four of the girls saw active service all during football season. The girls, this year, had new red corduroy outfits. Blue material could not be obtained. However, the red showed the band off to better advantage. The girls are still inexperienced in twirling but learned a lot about how to strut.

Of the twenty games played only six times did the blue and gold come out with the least number of points. This is considerably better than a Polo team has done for a number of years. A Although the team had a fine record all season, they rated only second in the Rock River Conference. The prospects for the future are bright, so let's bring that championship back to Polo next year! A little more hustle and drive, and it can be done! At the end of the season the following boys were awarded major letters: Capt. Tom Buck, Sr. Forward George Smith, Jr. Forward Edward Raley, Jr. Center Edmund Raley, Jr. Guard Deryle Behmer, Sr. Guard Russ Mount, Sr. Guard Bob Moats, Sr. Forward Also awarded at the end of the year were minor letters to these boys: Norman Knudson, John Clayton, Grant Landis, Fred Beecher, Bob Knudson, Roger Miller, Harold Woodin, Bill Bowers, Leonard Miller, and Vernus Johnson. Cheer Leaders Along with our football and basketball games this year we had a lot of noise. Six little girls were responsible for this outburst of pep and enthusiasm. Mary Lea Donaldson, Patricia Stuff, and Helen Copenhaver were the first team cheerleaders and Theresa Clingenpeel, Marian Krull, and Marilyn Galor supplied the drive for those second team victories. C203 Shrieking vozbes and the game is on- Hockey Season Hot, cold, rain or shine, hockey sticks plunked on the hockey field. Shins were barked and toes weredcracked as the girls huffed and puffed up and down the hockey field. But still the game progresse . Coach Garihee said the freshman girls showed up the other girls by playing the best hockey. Bowling Crash, bang, and somebody has gotten a strike. The G. A. A. Girls had bowling every Thurs- day night for nine weeks. During this time, Miss Garihee taught the one, two, three footwork. The tournament was won by Donna Reynolds with El Louise Witmer, Phyllis French and Lois Miller as runner ups. , Swing Your Partner The girls in P. C. H. S. have really been having some high times in their gym classes this year learning to cut a rug in a different fashion. Those poor records I-linky Dinky Parlez-Vous and Life on the Ocean Waves are really yelling for mercy from those lively square dances. The girls, however, haven't worried about the records but have been more interested in head two ladies forward and right. Dos-a-does, swing your partner and promenade all. Basketball Swish! And a basket was made. Of course, we all stopped playing temporarily to see who made the lucky shot. Sure-it was a Senior-yeah!!! The Juniors took their basketball rather lightly and had much more ability than they show- ed. The Sophomores played a hard fast game, sometimes too hard and too fast for their own good. The Freshmen really showed the most advancement since the biggest percentage of them were beginners at the game. Coach Garihee introduced zone defense which was as clear as mud to us at first but which we have since mastered to a CERTAIN DEGREE. Paddle Tennis Ping! Somebody hit a birdy. It flew up in the air and everybody scrambled to hit it. Oc- casionally, somebody got her hands or face hit, but she went on. Noon hour was the time the girls played paddle tennis. They rushed through dinner so they could get out on the floor. Freshmen predominated during these noon-hour sessions. Volleyball Set up! Smash it! Point! Side out! Spike! It's a net recovery! Point!! Yeah! We learned to play volleyball! We had played for years but did we know the rules and techniques? No! It was all Greek to us. We always thought the game was to keep the ball going and felt mighty proud when we managed a return. And the more noise our hands made returning the ball the prouder we were. But now-we know there's a way to put the ball where we want it. So we all shouted Set up! Smash it! Point! Side out! Spike!! It's a net recovery! Point! C215 Play Day and the Alumni Game - - --. G.

A. sponsored by Miss Garihee increased its membership with a large number of new and active members. The freshmen showed real interest. A Buddy Picnic was given last fall to stimulate interest among the freshmen to get new re- cruits. The biggest event of the year on the G. A. A. calendar was the football banquet that was held on November 16. The entire banquet and dance was built around football with the field and players in miniature as a centerpiece for the table and with false lockers and shower room cur- tains in the gym. The gals were right on their toes during the football season selling hot dogs, coffee and can- dy.. Once during the basketball season a cake walk was sponsored with ten delectable cakes. With their gym shoes and clothes in bundles slung over their shoulders, Ruby Jean Isley, Lo- la Jeanne Keckler, Viola Mae Folk, Donna Clayton, Louise Linkinhoker, Marceline Garman, Beverly Thomasson and Mildred and Madolyn Johnson plodded to Sterling via bus to shine at a G. A. A. Play Day. Volleyball, bowling, paddle tennis and stunts by the schools participating was the program of the day. Alumnae Win Over High School Each year the alumnae girls come over to the high school for the express purpose of trimming the Junior and Senior girls at basketball. What's more, they generally do! But the feminine fatale of P. C. H. S. gave them a merry run around the gym floor this year. The high school led all the way until the fourth quarter, when the fiashy alumnae got in gear and tied the game. Then all concerned wheezed through an overtime with the almunae vic- torious. Oh, yes, the score was 25 to 18. C225 OFF THE SET C233 Extra Activities and Extra lVork-- The Student Council The Student Council is composed of two members from each class.

The Librarians The Librarians of '46 may truly be called the bookworms of P. C. H. S. Though they may not even read the inside of a library book all year, they have been busy going through dozens of books to find if they were returned on the date due. Most of the Librarians were chosen from a group of people who had been Librarians in past years. This made a group of experienced people who got the library department off to a good start at the beginning of the year.

The Nativity The vocal groups of P. C. H. S., consisting of over one-hundred voices, presented a very in- spiring Nativity program, December 16. The gym was artistically decorated giving the audience a feeling of sacredness. The Brass Sextette lent a beautiful setting, prior to the opening number, by playing numer- ous Christmas carols. The following people and groups took special parts: Elaine Gilbert, Donna Clayton, Bud Davis, Bob McPherson and Don Maxey presented solos. Patricia Stuff was the narrator. The Mixed Chor- us, Girls Chorus, Boys Chorus and the Mixed Quartet sang various numbers. The audience left the auditorium greatly impressed with the authenticity of the Nativity. Music Contest V Eleven pupils went to Rochelle on Saturday, March 2, to compete in the district music con- test. The Boys Quartette, composed of Deryle Behmer, Bud Davis, Mason Scholl, and Bob Mc- Pherson, placed second. The girls trio also won second. Elaine Gilbert, Jeanette Lang, and Pa- tricia Stuff made up the trio. Individual vocal soloists were Donna Clayton, Delores Wilson, and Helen Copenhaver. They won two seconds and a third, respectively. Mason Scholl played a trumpet solo, placing second. Patricia Stuff placed first with her cello. Elaine Gilbert and Phyllis Lenhart were the accompanists.

But it was a good excuse to get into the lunch line first, and there really were seven of them. Don Clothier and Arnold Scholl carried the bass with trombone and tuba, respectively. Ruby Jean Isley certainly was kept busy with her French horn, especially during Hark, the Herald Angels Sing. Louise Coffey, playing baritone, and Mason Scholl and Dale Bloughf Harry James II and Charlie Spivakl made up the six members of any true sextette. Just to be different, Mr. Parrett added the glock- enspiel and so Elaine Gilbert became the seventh member. During the week before Christmas vacation, the sextette played Christmas carols on the third floor at noon. Their only public appearance was at the Christmas program where they played carols from the office window. Our Band P. C. H. S. has a band. It is the best band in the land. Clarinets with shrieks and shrills Sure give out with unearthly trills. I The Saxes moan and groan a lot- However, at playing they're not so hot. In the middle section we have French horns They are three and oh! what corn. The gang at the rear is called percussion fThey're the ones we are always cussin'.J One lonely player on the flute But she doesn't care or give a hoot. The Cornets are masters, so they think CBut, man oh man! How they do stink.J The Baritones take up a lot of space And the way they blow is a real disgrace. Behind them sit the Slide Trombones- We often wish they'd all go home. The two little Cellos and the big Bass Viol Usually sit and rest awhile. And finally we have Bass Horns Of leautiful tones they have been shorn. Our conductor is a gruesome drip- Stands around and wiggles his hips But let's all give the band a hand, It's still the best one in the land.

Under the direction of Mr. Parrett they played and marched at football games and furnished a lot of the pep at bas- ketball games. Also at numerous times during the year they appeared in assemblies, such as at Christmas time. But the big event of the year for the band was the Spring Concert. It was really quite an event! We all like to see and hear our band, because they are always up to some new trick or ar- rangement. They are a real credit to our school and we should be proud of the work they have done.

At the State Preliminary Meet Louise qualified for the tinals in which she placed fifth. Judging Teams In the Agriculture department Polo had a number of Judging teams this year. Under the direction of Mr. Banner a Poultry Judging team competed with nineteen other teams at a sectional contest held at Pearl City. This team was composed of the following boys: Kenneth Dunn, Vernon Myer, Ronald Hendrix, Donald Hose, and Eldon Ports. Two Polo judging teams have been entered in a contest to be held at Durand sometime in May. The results of this contest were not in as the CYCLE went to press. The two teams entered by Polo were a Dairy judging team and a Fat Stock judging team. At this time the members of the Fat Stock team have not been chosen. The Dairy team is composed of: Earl Parker, Ronald Feary, Harold Sterenberg, Bruce Knipple, and Dick Zivney. 1297 A bull's eye under the bank Future Farmers of America The Polo F. F. A.

In fact things looked so good, we had to have some pictures taken. In the upper corners we have Veronica Lake with two other girls, an Indian, two milkmaids, the man with 'the medicine ball, and Mrs. Callister with her gloves . . . That good-looking Irishman seems quite proud of his spaniel .... Scattered throughout the top center of the page we find nine Senior girls, good looking, too! The Johnson twins are all smiles, as are Geneva and Fern. Wilma R. seems to be in the picture twice, which is O. K. as we wanted some charming senior girls. Giggles Keckler is giggling. Wilma White stands beside Dorothy Houck. Harry Allen seems quite contented. Who wouldn't be? . . . Mr. Draper and Mr. Boh- nert, both wearing big smiles, out getting a little sunshine .... The Freshman girl football team is out for some rugged practice. Carol Linkinhoker is our star half- back .... The eighth hour typing class is pounding away on the keyboards .... Der- yle and Dick seems to be watching that experiment closely, while Quint and Don are scheming to blow the school sky high .... Evidently Mr. Parrett is enjoying the foot- ball banquet. That was quite a novel centerpiece for the table made by Louise Cof- fey .... Carol Linkinhoker is going after that ball, while her sister Louise, with the patch on her face, and Donna Reynolds look on .... That's a happy bus load of guys and gals. Bill Powell seems to be over-looking everyone. Eldon is hiding behind Wil- ma Ryan. Mary Lea wears a sweet smile as does Lillian Wolfley. Dale Blough is peeking around a head .... In the corner is a fast game of girls' basketball. Louise is there again with her patch. Theresa Clingenpeel is shooting .... The cafeteria is certainly a busy place between 12 and 1 o'clock. Amid giggles, the girls sure put away plenty. The first table is mostly Freshman girls. The second table is mostly Juniors and Seniors. Notice Keckler with the bite of food almost to her mouth. The last table seems to be for boys only .... And last but not least comes Don with that girl he is seen with so much. C327 1 5 4 'Y me Grp inf .ess , In oi. 1 -6 4 :wi H 1 QS Lest we forget! Sept.
