WOLFE: Mirror Staff 45 Broadcaster 45 Play Cast 45 Photography 3, SENIOR We started on our trail to success with twenty-one Rangers. The bosses of this trip were Miss Lorraine Morgan and Mr, Edgar Landry. Ronald Custer was elected to try to keep us organiz- ed as foreman. Wallace Hunt was elected as assistant foreman in case Ronnie couldn't control us. Mendel Hasler was elected as treasurer to take care of the cash from the round up. Joan Larkin was elected to keep record of our business transactions. The council members were Mary Ann Ketchum, Karen Brickey, and Wayne Mathis. The cowhands were: Janice Brewington, Karen Brickey, Garry Bushue, Betty Cleary, Christy Correll, Ronald Custer, Mendel Hasler. Joan Larkin, Mary Ann Ketchum, Roseline Lackey,Janet Swanson, F red Obenland, Jim Marshall, Carolyn Smith, Wayne Mathis, Barbara Franklin, James Terrell, Errol Holliday, Danny Piper, and Bonnie Seidel. Mendel Hasler and Carolyn Smith joined us from the Ellis ranch. After we had struggled through the first six weeks Wilma Blackford joined us from Olney. One of the main attractions at the fall roundup was the Freshman Initiation in September. During the year we lost three ranch hands who wanted to tour the country. They were Barbara Franklin, who went to Hoopeston: James Terrell, who moved to Rantoulg and Errol Holliday, who went to Champaign. The next year we found ourselves winding down the same trail as Sophomores. The Bosses this year were Mr. Don Pence and Mr. Edward Schwartz. The foreman was Roseline Lackey, assistant was Bonnie Seidel, Janice Brewington was secretary, and Ronald Custer was treasurer. Council members were Wayne Mathis, Karen Brickey, and Janet Swanson. During the summer after the work had slacked down, Danny Piper moved to Ohio, and Wilma Blackford transferred to Paxton. This left us only sixteen hands to go on over the winding trail. During the school year, Christy Correll dropped off the trail. The following year we were on the trail again with eighteen Rangers. We were then called Juniors. The new Rangers this year were Charles Staley, from Stockland and Richard Woods from Fox Lake. The bosses this year were Mrs. Carol Walker and Mr. W. J. Colteaux. Foreman was Ronald Custer and his assistant was Wayne Mathis. Charles Staley received double duty as sec- retary and treasurer. Council members were Karen Brickey, Ronald Custer and Mendel Hasler. At the roundup the highlights were the J unior-Senior Prom, held at the Urbana-Lincoln Hotel in Urbana. As the trail was coming to an end we now had eighteen members. The boss was Mr. Staley, We gained one more ranch hand and lost two. The new one was David Cade, who came to us from Kenosha, Wisconsin. We lost Richard Woods, who traveled to Paxton, and Joan Larkin, who stayed with 'us for the first six weeks, then started another ranch all her own. The head foreman was Wallace Hunt, Wayne Mathis was assistant foreman, and Joan Larkin was secretary. Mendel Hasler was elected as treasurer. Janet Swanson was elected to take the place of Joan Larkin as secretary. Council members were Charles Staley, Karen Brickey, and Wayne Mathis. The high- lights of our last year were the Freshman Initiation, Class Play, The Broadcaster and Mirror Staffs, Class Night, Senior Trip, J unior-Senior Prom, Baccalaureate, and Graduation. The trail to success is still not ended. It is a long hard journey. so saddle up Old Paint and good luck to youl f ff lvyff , I' , Jia jyfy 4 . -X ' , ,-, . .5- lq, l kia fy? I ll .. .3 , gs.

This will has been signed and sealed on the twenty-eighth day of May in the year of our Lord One Thousand Nine Hundred and Fifty-Seven by the GRADUATING CLASS of Rankin Township High School. Witnessed by: SENIOR PRCDHECV At the Rankin Proving Grotmds we see Wally Hunt and Fred Obenland putting the finishing touches cm an amazing new rocket. Getting ready to take off in this new discovery is Don Wolfe seated at the controls looking out the window at Mrs. Don Wolfe, the former Barbara Morris. As he is not sure what the future holds in store for him, he bravely waves good-bye as everybody wishes him success. While passing the planet Mercury, we see Ronnie Custer, a millionaire playboy, pulling into his driveway in his '66 Continental. Gee! Look whom we get aglimpse of at Venus--the all girl staff hospital under the direction of Dr. Carolyn Schnepper. This famous doctor, the former Carolyn Smith, is now performing a tonsillectomy. Under her supervision are several former classmates training to be nurses. There are several familiar names such as: Miss Janet Swanson, who, after five years of schooling, has become a registered nurse with a Bachelor of Science degree, Miss Janice Brewington and Miss Roseline Lackey, who have also received their Bachelor of Science Degrees in Nurses Training. In our Mars Candy Shop we find, to our surprise, Mrs. Bay Starr. the former Betty Cleary, employed as a candy maker. Also workinghere is Mrs. Mike Eighner, the former Bomie Seidel. Jupiter is in view now, and we see Wayne Mathis, head of Jupiter Research. He has just stopped to have a chat with his secretary, Karen Brickey, who is attending evening classes at Outerest of Outer Space University working towards her Doctor's Degree in Business Education. Chuck Staley, we discover, is on Saturn. He is now coach of the Saturn Space Pacers, a team that has won the championship of the solar league for the past five years. Mrs. Frank Brewer, the former Joan Larkin, and her husband have a highly successful Moonshine and Greencheese Business on the Moon. Don's next stop is on Pluto where he visits David Cade, who runs the largest Dalmatian Kennel in the Universe. He has become very famous for his development of dogs with polka dots of pastel colors. Mrs. Larry Scott, the former Mary Ann Ketchum, is his secretary. She creates the formula for the dog food which is responsible for the different colors. Due to the low supply of rocket fuel, Don turns back to see if he has missed anyone. On Mars he sees Garry Bushue, field supervisor and grower of Mars Jelly Beans and Marsmallows. Mrs. Bushue, the former Betty Cline, is head supervisorin a branch office of Universal Crop Insurance. Mendel Hasler is a valuable assistant to Garry because he is the head supervisor who irrigates the canals on Mars. Mrs. Hasler, the former Brenda Huffman, assists him on all of his irrigation projects. Don is now getting ready to land at the Proving Grounds--back after a very successful flight. 'I'he Rankinites have the welcome mat laid out for Don and they are thinking about all the questions that they could and will ask him. For example, did you see anybody? Well, the answer to this would be yes, because Don saw all of his classmates of the graduating class of 1956.

Although the team cou1dn't manage to win a trophy, they compiled a fine record of 17 wins and 8 defeats. Potomac proved to be Rankin's stumbling block by defeating the Rangers four times--twice in tourn- ament play. Rankin went to the finals of the District Tournament before bowing to Potomac 52-43. Highlights of the season were Rankin's two lopsided wins over a strong Armstrong team and the un- crowning of the Iroquois County Champion, Crescent City by the score of 83-60. The Rangers came on strong at the end of the season to win their last 8 games before losing to Potomac. Rankin placed second in the North Vermilion Conference with a fine record of 10 wins and 2 defeats. The team finished third in the County Conference behind Westville and Potomac with a record of 12 wins and 3 defeats, The Rankin Reserves also had a successful season. They tied Potomac for first place in the North Vermilion Conference with a record of 10 wins and 2 defeats.

They placed second in the North Vermilion Conference Meet and third in the Class B Division of the County Meet. Denny Ryan and Chuck Staley placed first and third in the half mile run at the Countymeet. Mendel I-Iasler and Garry Bushue each won a fifth place ribbon at the County, Hasler in the 100 yard dash and Bushue in the mile run. These boys with the addition of Dean Brown, Rolland Goin, Ernie Ballard, Wally Hunt, Irving Vaughn, and Ronnie Custer, who missed last season because of a broken ankle, will be the basis for the 1956 track team. .S We hope to have a strong team this year and improve on last year's record. ', 5 N BASEBAH h 1955 was a good year for the Rankin baseball team. The Rangers finished the season with five wins and two defeats, thus tying for the North Vermilion Conference Championship with Bismarck and Armstrong, ' The teams lost to Bismarck in the conference play-offs. The team will lose Ron Custer, Chuck Staley, Mendel l-Iasler, Wally Hunt, and Dave Cade by graduation. The boys played instrumental roles in winning the championship for Rankin. 1 955 BASEBALL Rankin 12 Potomac 10 Rankin 2 Armstrong 5 Rankin 25 East Lynn 2 Rankin 12 Henning 2 Rankin 8 Ogden 4 Rankin 6 Bismarck 5 Rankin 3 Bismarck 5 ,ik Yy'? at ,Z . f , V, wx .V A I .s- E 'K f' ay 4 o 1 .Lp wha , , iw '75, Fw ,gg 1-.
