World-wide hostilities are behind us. The greatest war in the history of mankind is at an end and against the troubled background of unrest and uncertainty which war always brings, world-wide conversion to normal living is now in progress. We, as graduates, about to enter life beyond the high school, feel deeply appreciative of the sacrifices of all ' those who made possible this Era and to them whoever they are, wherever they may be, we dedicate this Book. We were just firmly launched as eight graders when the news was flashed around the world that the Japs had bombed our fleet, then lying at anchor in the quiet waters in the harbor off Oahu. We, as children, shared in the general excitement and in the resentment against a race which, with- out provocation and without warning, had made a cowardly sneak-attack upon our peaceful nation. During the remainder of our life in the Grade School and during all of our Freshman, Sohpomore, and Junior years in Port Byron High we saw our country turning from the usual peaceful pursuits to which we as children had been accustomed and gear itself for total warfare. We saw factory after fac- tory in the Tri-Cities turn from their usual schedule of peace-time production and blue-print themselves for the out- put of weapons of destruction. We saw women take the places of men as more and more demands were made upon labor and men in increasing numbers answered their country's call. We be- came used to women working side by side with men in factoriesg learned the meaning of Hgrave-yard shifts,N of a ten-hour working day, of overtime, of time and a half. We saw long lines of tanks leave the Arsenal for shipment over-seas. We heard the constant boom of guns as they were tested on the Arsenal grounds. We became war-conscious. We saw blue ser- vice stars in increasing numbers appear in windows and with heavy hearts saw many of the blue ones turn to gold. The war was brought closer to us when the tragic news reached our quiet village that Arthur Hughes of the class of '37 had been killed on the battlefield at Biak Island while caring for the wounded, and Charles Lamb, a 1938 graduate, H3922 iid?

Later, came the news of the death of Fred Hanny, a 1940 graduate, from wounds received during the invasion of the Japanese- held island of Iwo Jima in the South Pacific, and of Robert McCune, '41, whose plane fell victim to an enemy attack while over Germany territoryl Closer still came the war,- especially to the graduating class of '45, when Duane Irwins their classmate, sacrificed his life when the aircraft carrier, Franklin, was damaged by an enemy bomb. We waited anxiously for news of all Port Byron boys in service from the classes of '23, '24, '27, '28, '30, '31, '33 and so on to '44, The Honor Roll in the Globe Office window grew longer and longer, V-mail sent to far-flung corners of the globe grew heavier and heavier. An air of dread expect- ancy hung over our village. Mothers' hearts lost their lightness, and eyes grew din with tears they were too brave o shed. Such was our heritage as high school students--the aw- ful carnage of war from December, l94l, to August, '45. But on that day, the joyful news of the cessation of warfare was flashed by radio and press around the globe. Guns were silenced, and the four-year struggle with all its death and destruction, worry and heartache was at an end. The war was over. Peace once more reigned upon the earth. , In a spirit of gratitude to all those who made possible this Era upon which, we, as graduates of the class of '46, are about to embark, reverently dedicate this fifth issue of our Year Book. YOU sacrificed your own personal ambitions to fight against the greed of our enemies--greed which, had it not been for YOU, might have enslaved the world. YOU answered the call of your country that we night never feel' the tyrant's heel. YOU fought to preserve this precious freedom which is our birth right and yours. YOU fought not only for us but for generations to come---that they, too, might tread the HPath of Peacen. To you we dedicate this Book. --TFE ECHO STAFF-- ,-db.

While studying in Bette's room, the girls violate school rules by making fudge and are discovered by Sampson CKenneth Murphy? the janitor of the school, who threatens to inform Miss Prim. In a situation which involves four pretty coeds against one man, Sampson becomes hopelessly confused and ' leaves the room completely dazed with all closure vanished from his mind. Jo Carter, quite a tomboy, who finds thoughts of dis- life at Miss Prim's school much too quiet, disguises herself as a boy and runs away. When her absence is discovered and the general confusion and excitement had died away, Sampson finds he is minus his only pair of pants. Jo, by now, has reached the farm of Albert Brown CHerbert Noahb and applies for work. Employed here are Sarah Haskins CYathleen Thompsonb, a brawny woman separated from her husband, and her daughter Rebecca Cvirginia Hayl who spends most of her time trying to entice the men--al- though the hired man, Cyrus CBob Steffenj a grinning, gig- gling boy is in love with her. Quite a difficult situation develops when Rebecca, believing Jo is a boy, persists in making love to her. Jo comes from a very prominent family who are much con- cerned with her absence from school. When her picture is published in the papers Farmer Brown recognizes it but re- solves to Peep it a secret as he has fallen in love with her and does not want her to leave, Suspicion seems to point to Sampson, for Miss Prim is convinced, since Sampson's pants are missing, that he must have been involved in some sort of a trick to help Jo make her escape from school. Feeling he is in danger, he believes the thing to do is get Jo back to school and decide: to Vid- nap her. In the dead of the night, he steals into her room, covers her with a blanket, and makes his escape in spite of a few lusty screams from Jo. The screams bring Farmer Brown running to her room but too late to intercept the kidnapping He calls the State Police, who organize a Suddenly, with no warning at all, Jo farm with Sampson securely tied up with a cognizes him as her long-lost husband and wifely scolding for deserting her so long searching party. appears at the rope, Sarah re- gives him a good ard then turning into a kidnapper.

Several moons ago in autumn Came a little band of Freshies Fearful, curious, as the deer are. Ventured forth among the hallways, Looked in awe upon the Seniors, Wondered who and what and wherefore, Knowing nothing, but most hopeful That our little band would prosper. All of us who are now present, Many others who have left us, Were among our Freshman brothers First we gathered scrap for vict'ry-- We collected heap-big heap Oh, we gathered in more that day Than all other schools around here. For the school we gave a wedding Mock it was and very funny-- Little Herbie bore the ring, yes, Bobbie Steffen was a flower girl. Johnnie Kline and Lois Wells were Wed that night by Kathleen Thompson In that year we had two sponsors- Margaret Allison first we had, then Mrs. Henry came to guide us. Thus we spent our Freshman days here In the halls of Port Byron High School In our second year of High School We returned with vim and vigor Which we spent upon the Freshmen How we made them bend and bow and Carry all our books to classes. Then for them we gave a party Thus Hinitiationn ended. In this second year of high school, Minges was our worthy sponsor. For our Chief that year was chosen Mose, the quiet, the unspoken. Fame and honor got we that year For in magazine subscriptions Johnny Eib surpassed all others For our Third year we returned then Full fledged Juniors, Upper Classmen. my ,X - if f Q .rig T. xg.. a M, V., ' :is , 'IT HQZE zw fr S5555 ,Ny ,153 2 -- Fi B 43? ,, A E?

For our Chief we chose a swell guy, Kenny Murphy led our tribe on, On to new and great attainments. Mr. Nelson helped to guide us On the third lap of our journey. Our class won the box of candy For the wampum we collected ln the sale of magazines. For our play we had a packed house, And we used our hard earned wampum For a feast night at Nlhe Cottagen, Honoring our Senior Brothers. Thus we passed another milestone On our journey toward success. Back to school we came the fourth time Just thirteen of us were left now-- Few we were but strong and mighty-- Pleasant was our journey this year. For our Chief again was chosen Kenny Murphy, brillant warrior, And we trusted and reverred him-- He, who through two years had led us, For our play this time was given Miss Adventure in three portions. Bold our Braves were in athletics. Bob and Kenny made the first team-- Herb and Calvin also played to 'Nin a trophy in the tourney. Then the Juniors entertained us At a tea-room in Moline. There they honored us and fed us At a feast-heap big--we say. So in this last year of High School We have worked and played and studied, Always looking to the time when All our work will be completed. We have gained the highest goal now Offered on this hunting ground.

Editor-in-chief was Delbert Simpson and assisting him were Class Reporters: Evelyn Nose, Norma May, Virginia Smith, Darathy aacnman, Annie Mae Searl, Fiery Esther Kelly for the Feniorsg Earl Nay, Norma Anderson, Barbara Rick, Jane Simpson, Phyllis Wildermuth for the Juniors, Dick Keeley, Marie Hedeen, Isabelle Boardman, Evelyn Pannell for the Sophomoresg Beverly Dye, and Barbara Mathes for the Freshmen. The book was ded- icated to S.C,Monson in appreciation of the guidance he had given the Seniors. This work was continued durirg 1942-3, with Miss Cooper again acting as Adviser. As this was a year of was, the book took on an uarmy thomen with classes ranked respectively as Privates, Corporals, Sergeants, and Lieutenants and dedicated to Charles Lamb, a l938 graduate, whose life was sacrificed in World War II. ' 'In 1943-4, Margaret Welch who succeeded Miss Cooper as Comnercial Instructor sponsored the publication of The Echo, and in spite of inconveniences due to wartime restrictions of labor and material, her Staff put out a most commendable ' Year Book. This third volume was dedicated to Mothers every- where, Hwho untiringly and prayerfully work on -- that the stars in windows may soon be removedn. In 1944-F, the fourth volume of The Echo was edited by the Senior Class under the guidance of Catherire Perring, successor to Miss Welch in the Commercial Department. The book was dedicated to a Classmate of this l945 graduates, Duane Irwin, who lost his life while serving his country on an aircraft carrier, the ill-fated Franklin. This issue carried a page in Memoriam to three Port Byron grad- uates who paid the supreme sacrifice in World War II - b, '38, on a fog-obscured Air Base in California, Arthur Hughes, '37, on the battlefield at Biak Island, Fred Hanny on the Japanese-hold island of Iwo Jima. Another page cited awards given to graduates serving in the armed forces of their country - to Dale Ziegler, to Arthur Ying, to Charles Lam Frank Morford. The Honor Roll this year was longer than in previous years, more blue stars were seen in windows, nore had turned to gold. In the fall of 1946, the eight Senior girls who were to serve on the Year Book Staff faced a year of Peace in- stead of War, The Echo took on a lighter, happier tone. The war was over. The book was dedicated to Peace. Though still inconveniencod by lack of material and labor, the Staff fin- ally realized the joy of seeing their efforts materialize in the Echo of l946.

Q ,, , A 1 'M w I , THE ink sroir In the year of l942 the first Ink Snot was or- ganized to publish seni-monthly a nineographed four page paper to which students in hiqh school could subscribe. All news was handled in general by those on the Staff and each edition had a new editor. Work was done, as it still is, in the Commercial Depart- X ment under the supervision of Miss Cooper who was then the head of that departnent. Original menbers of the Ink Snot Staff and those to whom much credit is due for initiating a publication which is of so much in- terest to the student body were: Virginia Smith, Norma Yay, Bill Stebbins, Janice Skelton, Barbara Nathas, LaVera Tyler, Varie Hedeen, Joyce Sallows, Isabelle Boardman, Barbara Rick, Jane Sinpson, Phyllis Wilder- nuth, Norma Anderson, Bob Dailey, Vary E. Kelly, Levy Jinks, Evelyn Nose, Annie M, Searl, Dorothy Bachman, John Kelly and Ira Lillinan. Records of the number of subscribers that year are not available, nor of 43, but in 1944-5 some , seventy students subscribed, and in l945-6 the Staff p boasted alnost one hundred per cent. In addition both last year and this, sirteen copies dere nailed monthly to the Port Byron students in the Service - many over- seas. Five were sent to members of the Board of Ed- ucation, and seven to Port Byron Grade School Children Back in 1942, the student body submitted nanos for the oaner, Bhyllis Wildernuth's UPort Byron Ink Spotu winning for her the distinction of naninq her school oaoor which, in all probability, will stand the tzst of time and be continued through the years to cone. Inciientally, Phyllis won a season basketball ticket. An HInk Spot Staffn has continued to function through succeeding years until in l945-6, it boasts a nuch HBigQer and Bettorn nonthly publication, some issues containing as many as eight pages of interest- ing ness concerning the school and its activities. All work this year and last has been done in the Com- mercial Department under the supervision of Yiss Perr- ing, instructor in Commercial subjects. Yuch of the success of the publication is due to Yarilyn Sidlinger, Editor-in-Chief. Working with her in a corps of cap- able Nners-houndsu, typists, and nimeograph operators. The Staff prides itself uoon getting the issue out on tine, keeping a high standard in neatness, accuracy, correctness in spellinq, punctuation, and conoosition. Assisting Yarilyn vere the following Staff members: Beverly Pannoll, Barbara Strandgard, Targaret Swith, Helen Yilliams. Shirley Erickson, Kathloin Thompson, Virginia Kay from the Senior Class, Coach Hunson in charge of Sports Columns, and contributors of news fron the various classes and clubs. 4, X 1 w -5. f., -N b , , v 1 I -'ff - , 1 4 ,, W x Q .

Senior Class Night - another gala evening - all Junior girls out in formals, nylons, and silver slippers-as Arch Bearers, held flowereentwined arches through which passed the Seniors, as Yrs. Harry Speckman played the Processional. On the stage the King and Queen were crowned by their At- tendants With Carol and Karen Pannell, twin sisters of Bev- erly, the Crown Bearers, and Vichael Vurohy, Kenneth's bro- ther, and Ronald Buell, Calvin's nephew, the Quaen's Train Bearers. Thus another sweet girl graduate became a Kay Queen reoeating for the tenth time since l937 the custom of crowning two oonular Senior graduates Nay King and his Queen. Out again for Baccalaureate Services on Sunday evening, May 19, and for Senior Graduation on May 24, With pride and yet in sorrow we watched the thirteen Seniors oass through the door of the Auditorium to the strains of the Recessional, briniing to a close four years of life at Port Byron High-- breaking oli associations and the ties of school friendshio forever.

Border Buckaroos On nRodeo Ranchn near the Mexican border, Rose Ed- wards CDolores Skeltonb, owner and manager, has in her employ the cowhand, Sputters iPhilip Johnsonjg her fiery little Mexican girl helper, Pepita CDolores Hayesig a slangy waitress, Toots Carr CShirley Jacobsenig an Irish cook, Maggie Murphy CNorma Fritslg a singing cowboy CBlair ThO?f1bl00m53 a singing cowgirl CBette Schwennekerl. Other cowooys employed on the ranch are: Lyle Warren, Franklin BBCRHBD, Robert Eckelberry, Darrell Griffin, Duane Lund, Roland Nose, Edward Sullivan, Richard Ayers, Gordon Wilson, and Archie Baff. Pepita and Toots are competing for the love of the stuttering Sputters when a young and giddy grass-widow, Mrs. O'Toole Van Graff CVary Stearnsl, arrives at the ranch in search of a new heart interest, thereby complicating the quest of both Pepita and Toots for the love of Sputters. Her daughter, Vazie CJoyce Tylerb, who has run away from Boarding School in search of her mother, picks up a ride with Bess CVildred Pearsallb. Bess hopes to find employment at the Rodeo Ranch where she can work under cover as an F.B.l. agent with her husband, Jim Lynn CLarry Atkinson! who had secured lodging there in order to further his secret task of Nazi spy hunting. -Jim, who tries to keep his identity a secret, is accused by Maggie CNorma Frits, comely cook on the ranch, of being a Nazi spy and his very violent reaction to this accusation Che faintsb further con- firms her suspicions. Yrs. E. Bell CPat Waltherb, a young woman disguised as a feeble old lady and accompanied by two irls - one disguised as her granddaughter, Elsie Bell ?Frances Gilbert? and the other as her nurse, Miss Lay CJao- queline Kerr! - also secure lodging at the Ranch, Secretly, at night, Urs. Bell and Miss Day hide a rocket in an old well to use later to signal German U-Boats operating off the coast that it is safe to store food and medical supplies at the Ranch, Sputters, not knowing of the presence of the rocket, lights a match, when at Jim 's request, he goes down into the well in search of a letter from the F,B.I. which Jim had hidden there. The match accidently sets off the rocket and the explosion blows Sputters out of the well, add ing a good measure of humor to the play. Feeling that Jim suspects her and that the F.B.I. is probably too close for comfort, Nrs, Bell devises a scheme for Miss Day to dress as a Mexican wash-woman - using clothes she has secreted in her auto - and call at the ranch with a bundle, supposedly a washing, but in reality other clothes with which Mrs. Bell can also effect a disguise. Maggie overhears Mrs. Bell and Miss Day making plans for a get-away under this disguise and informs Jim. Jim devises a scheme to trap Hrs. Bell. He in duces Sputters to take on the disguise of the wash-woman who is to bring the bundle to Hrs. Bell. B -'Gif -r H, 471 1372 is I J W, , V1 43,1 V W 539421222 ,, wwf W l QWY' .3 v 45- ,.

Of the Presence of the Nazi spies at Rodeo Ranch. Feigning illness, hrs: Bell asks Rose to bring her some water which she throws into the eyes of Jim, temporarily blinding him, and in the con- fusion tries to make her escape. The F.B.I. however, are by that time on hand and all three are captured. The gen- eral confusion which ensues calls onto the stage all of the twenty-six characters in the cast, bringing to a close an evening of most enjoyable entertainment. . 9 'g.. 'rZm e- .

Monson, the first Student Council was organized at Port Byron Community High School. It was an organization of eight student members, two from each class, Its aim was to give the student body, through these representatives, an op- portunity to have a voice in the solution of school problems in which they were vitally interested. Meetings were held weekly during school hours. Freeman Orr and Bill Beecher 4 represented the Senior Class, Floyd Michaels and June Wood, the Juniors, Joyce Sallows and Dick Keeley, the Sophomoresg Janice Skelton and John Kelly, the Freshmen. Freeman Orr was elected Council President, Floyd Michaels, Vice-president, June Wood, Secretary. During 1943, there was no Student Council but again in '44, ten members represented their classes in closed sessions with Principal S. C. Monson where many important decisions affecting the school in general were discussed and solved. In a representative government such as the people of our country enjoy, there is no better method of student-partici- pation in school affairs than through this, their Student Council. It is at these Council meetings that student-rep- resentatives are given the freedom to bring before thier ad- ministrator, the Principal, questions for discussion which are of vital interest to them and to the school they repre- sent. In 1945, although considerable pressure was brought to bear, this right was denied the student body and was, no doubt, one of the many contributing factors which led to dissention in the high school. In 1946, the Council again functioned under the guidance Of Principal C. S. Hall, members, chosen by vote of respec- tive classes, meeting to bring before the Council-body vital roblems affecting the school. At the first meeting on October 59, Bob Steffen, Senior, was elected President, Herb Noah, Senior, Vice-president, Joyce Tyler, Junior, Secretary, Lyle Warren, Junior, Treasurer. Joyce Tyler was appointed School Reporter for the Globe and edited the weekly column nPort Byron School Newsn, under the guidance of Miss Perring, Com- mercial Department. Other members of the Council were Bar- bara Strandgard, Senior, Donald Earhart, Sophomore, Robert Carlson, Freshman. The Council sponsored school assemblies during the year, holding each class responsible for one pro- gram. The organization, also, sponsored the movement to pur- chase additional victrola dance records to be used during the noon activity period under Coach Munson's supervision. In March the organization sponsored an all-school party in the gym The Student Council is an organiration which should al- ways function in Port Byron Community High School. There is no better method of knitting together the student body as a whole and its administration than through this right of student representatives to meet with their Principal for open, friendly discussion of their problems.

Byron Grade. and High School Band was first 0TSal'11Z9d back in 1939 with Philip Putnam as director or . the twenty-five members. ' , In 1940, a Band Boosters Club, composed of friends and parents of Band members was organized and through their efforts red and white capes and caps were purchased. An additional five members swelled Band membership to thirty and they were heard at various concerts and contests at home and in other schools. In l942, they received B rating among Class D bands in a contest at Genesee. In December of 1943, under the direction of Mrs. Carlson, the Band gave a concert in the High School Auditorium, selections by the Band being supplemented by the Glee Club and Boys' Chorus, Again, in May of l944, the Band gave another concert under Mrs. Carlson's direction with the Girls' Clee Club, Girls' Quartet, Boys' Trio, and Boys' Chorus contributing. There was no music at school in 1945, but in l946 Floyd Johnson, an Augustana student, organized a twenty-four piece band of grade and high school students. He devoted part of his time to grade school music, part to high school. Re- hearsals were held every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. Mon- day and Wednesday practices were not required but they added thirty minutes to.one's practice record. Friday practices were held from 3:00 to 3:45 and every one was required to be present at these meetings. In March, the Band gave a con- cert assisted by Augustana talent. The proceeds of this entertainment were used to keep the Band intact over the sum- mer, under the direction of John M. Gustafson who, during the year, taught piano at the Grade School and High School. Members of the Band appearing in the Band Concert were: Norma Frits, Larry Atkinson, Blair Thornbloom, Beverly Pan- nell, Edward Sullivan, Joan Zwolanek, Benjamin Grumadas, Andre Mostert, Bill Jo Nickerson, Dolores Skelton, Sherwood Koontz, Dick Wells, Alan Anderson, Luanne Frits, Eldon Reil- ing, Charlene Smith, Patricia Smith, Jack Ramsar, and Bever- ly Dailey. Band ensemble consisted of: bass horn, trombone, drums, cornets, mellophone, oboe, saxaphone, and clarinets. During the year interested parents and friends continued the organization begun in 1939 known as the Band Boosters Club. At a tea in the Home Ec rooms in November the Club began activities by making plans for a dance to be sponsored by the P.T.A., the proceeds of which would keep the Band ac- tive during Sumter vacation. Beverly Pannell, a member of the Senior Typing Class, cut and mineographed tickets of admission and on April 24, a dance was held in the High School Gym with music furnished by Harold Plym's orchestra. 1 1-f, + '2- 4 n . . 1 u , 1 1 v HOME EC.

Mothers and friends of students enrolled in the Home Ec classes were guests. Gar- ments made by the girls as a regular part of their school work were modeled in a modern Floor Show with Marilyn Sidlinger at the piano. The room was attractively decorated with baskets of spring flowers and the run-way to the front of the room was fenced in by flower-entwined lattice work. Frances Gil- bert in an orange-colored formal announced the order of ap- pearance and explained briefly the type of garment modeled. Blouses and skirts were modeled by Joan Ecker, Donna Jean Schmoll, Dolores Schafer, Trudy Nostert, Beverly Hose, Elinor Larson, Wilma Hayes, Phyllis Love, Marilyn Eckelberry, Darlene Fritz, Nancy Zwolanek, Nelda Hollister, Barbara Lewis, Alice Clossin, Sue Lamb, and Norma Lesner. Trudy Mostert, Joan Ecker, Beverly Mose, Dolores Schafer, Sue Lamb, Norma Lesner, Wilma Hayes, Barbara Johnson, Mary Lou Engebretson, Elinor Eib, Marilyn Marshall, and Elinor Larson modeled summer afternoon dresses. Play suits were modeled by Sue Lamb, Donna Jean Schmoll, Elinor Larson, Dorothy King Alice Clossin, and Dolores Schafer The high-light of the Spring Style Show was the appear- ance of the nine girls in the Junior Class wearing the formals they wore at the Junior-Senior Banquet held at Johnson's Tea Room in Moline. They made a charming oicture with a varied array of colors and styles. Although the dresses were no part of the course in sewing offered by the school, each costume reflected the good taste in dress and the feeling for what is appropriate in style and design for certain occasions which an instructor of sewing always hopes to instill as a standard for choice. Frances Peterson, Shirley Jacobsen, and Dolores Skelton wore blue, Mary Lee Stearns and Mildred Pearsall were in white, Patricia Walther and Joyce Tyler had chosen pinkg Dolores Hayes wore a black and white checkg Jacqueline Kerrie was a bright print rayon jersey top with white net skirt. Refreshments of open-face sandwiches, tea, and cookies were served by members of the Home Economics Club. fl gi 4+ wy+f1!'
