Text from Pages 1 - 196 of the 1955 volume:

Edited by the Watchtower Staff Rock Island Senior High School Rock Island, Illinois W hat Is Rocky High? Have you stopped to think about the many things which really make up our school t As you look through the pages of your Watchtower, you will see the tilings that are a part of Rock Island high school. Rocky isn’t just the building or the students. It’s more than athletics, clubs, dances, or even the teachers and parents. It is really the combination of all these qualities, found only in a high school such as our, that makes Rocky what it is. 2 Foreword l Building 3 INDEX Administration 16 Classes . 32 Sports .78 Organizations 108 Activities 1-44 Index 5 What Is Rocky High? In the following few pages you will see pictural illustrations of the major phases of your school life. You, the people, are the main line of an intricate network. Your glad voices, or sometimes indignant shouts, ring through halls that would he empty and lifeless with¬ out you. The traditions you uphold and follow, the classes you attend, and the sports in which you participate all build a school of character and personality. The dances you enjoy, the work you do in plays or the services you render to organiza¬ tions, the part you play in presenting good music, and the interest of your parents and teachers all join together and help to answer this question concerning Rocky High.

Helms, secretary, Junius 1 Califf, president, William C. Bell, and James II. Adamson. You May Not See Us Often It’s True But We’re In Back Of All You Do The members of the Hock Island Board of Education give generously of their time and effort in order that the students of the public school system may receive tin best possible educational opportunities. Approving appointments of new teachers, maintaining buildings, purchasing new equip¬ ment, ordering textbooks, determining the sal¬ aries of public school employees, and handling financial problems are all part of the duties of the board as the members constantly strive to improve and modernize the Rock Island public schools. The Board of Education sees that all students in the Rock Island system get the best guidance and training that it is possible to provide. 18 Board of Fducation I know the 1H55 Watchtower will bring you many pleasant memories. It is hoped that your high school days have been hap¬ py and profitable, and that the tools which you have acquired will help you in the future. I trust you can look back on your high school days and say, “My school has helped me in many ways.” I am proud of you as a student body, of our faculty, and of the record of Rock Island high school.

The Senate serves as a go-between for the student body and members of the faculty. The representatives, se¬ lected by their Senate rooms, strive to create better understanding and spirit among students and faculty. Student Council pins were adopted this year by the Senate, giving recog¬ nition to representatives for service to the school. Paintings were pur¬ chased for hall corridors for approx¬ imately $250. A special committee ap¬ pointed by the Senate, made the selections. 30 Senate Students enjoyed music in the cafe¬ teria this year, thanks to the Senate and the Van Goor record shop. Selec¬ tion of the cheerleaders, distribution of safe driving awards and many drives for such charitable causes as the March of Dimes, Junior Red Cross, Crippled Children’s fund, and Christmas baskets for needy families, were conducted by the Senate during the year. Again this year, the pop machines gave the Senate its largest percentage of revenue. Shown loading the vending machines are Jeff Mueller, Marty Katz, and Larry Cross. Hon Herman, Inn Kay Sherwood, Pat Koest- er, and Don Anders consider applications for safe-driving awards. Perry Como, Dinah Shore, and many other stars found their way into Rocky’s cafeteria. On record, that is! The senate record com¬ mittee, composed of Mar¬ lene Kreps, Carol McKin¬ ley, Beverly Daubert, Tom Anderson, and I arry Dun¬ lap played the top tunes every noon over the P.A. system. Mary Ann Biscon tine Vice-president Jack Smith President Marlene Kreps Secretary We’ve Been Here Nearly Three Years Now Time passes very rapidly, and the senior year of 1955 class has been no exception. Homecoming was the first big event of the year with Donna Mills reigning as queen, and Susie Spencer, and Sherry Bennett attendants. Sportsmanship ranked high at the athletic events, and Rock Island high school claimed many sports honors. The varsity cheerleaders for the year were Deanna Barnes, Rita Beardslee, Evelyn Kaminsky, Joyce Scott, and Susie Spencer. Plays presented by the Dramatic club, junior class. Speech II, and the senior class provided entertainment throughout the year. The Glee club appeared on radio and television and presented a winter concert. The band and orchestra held their annual winter concerts. The year was climaxed with the Jun¬ ior-Senior Prom, sponsored by the junior class. June will arrive much too quickly along with thoughts of college. With many fond memories, the class of 1955 will leave Rock Island high school. 34 Senior?

WV June Mitchell vice-president Elizabeth MeKnight secretary Stan Wyr� ck president We’ve Finally Arrived at High School At Last We’ve Learned Our Way The sophomores may be the youngest members of the family at Rocky High but this year they have contributed their full share to the interest and activities of our school. This year has been one of new faces and varied exper¬ iences. Their enthusiastic participation has included football, basketball, baseball, track, golf, tennis, wrest¬ ling, dramatics, chorus, band, and debate in addition to various com¬ mittees and clubs. To lead their activities, the sophs elected the following officers: Stan Wyrick, president; June Mitchell, vice-president; and Elizabeth Me- Knight, secretary. The cheerleaders proved effective spark plugs both at athletic events and the ever-popular pep assemb¬ lies. The Senate elected this year’s sophomore cheerleaders, Judy Al¬ len, Sandra Barr, Sue Biehl, Elea¬ nor Kish, and Lois Leinenwever.

J In Rocky High Tradition Rock Island high school ' s 1954 varsity football team was unable to complete an unprecedented third straight undefeated season, but the Rocks did have a highly successful season, losing only twice and finishing in the runnerup spot in both the Northwest and Quad-City conferences. Clinton ended the Islander record of 23 straight wins in the third game of the season with a 20-20 tie, but the Rocks didn’t suffer a loss until a super-charged Galesburg team upset them 26-21 in the season’s seventh game. At that time Rocky had gone 27 games without defeat. Coach Harold V. (Shorty) Almquist’s 11 had one especially satisfying win, a 13-7 triumph over a favored St. Ambrose Academy team in the season’s finale. A new assistant coach joined the Islander staff again this year as Don Clark joined Howard Lundeen, Rocco Carbone, and George (Sonny) Franck as aides to head coach Almquist. Clark replaced Herbert Wagner. Strong inside running and better than average passing featured the Rocks’ baekfield of ’54.

The other halfback spot was wide open, with Gene Ingram, Bill Edwards, and Don Allison all seeing action. Bill Bowes and Fred Dasso alter¬ nated at quarterback and handled the passing attack. In the line Diek Litvin, another Northwest and Quad-City all star, teamed with Bill Burns at the ends; Dick Hearts and Ed Praet handled the tackle spots; and Art Gilmore and Jerry MacBeth manned the guard posts. Jim Bjorklund started the season at center but broke bis wrist in the Moline game and was out the rest of the season. Junior Larry Cross took over the pivot duties and did a fine job. Defensive standouts included Bob Humphrey, Ken Manglesdorf, Ray Brooks, LeRoy Zentic, Bill Edwards, Jerry MacBeth, Dick Boarts, and Don Allison.

The Rocks Fought Hard in Every Strife Bouncing back after losing two of their first three games, Rock Island’s sophomore football team moved on to the Northwest conference championship and a second place finish in the Quad-City loop. Except for the Davenport clash the Pebbles won when they had to, losing only to foes outside the two conferences. Against the Blue Devils in the Quad-City conference championship game, the Rocks held a 7-0 lead, but were unable to hold it against the powerful Davenporters. Coach Robert Riley, in his second year as soph football mentor, produced another fine team. Riley was assisted by William T. Smith and Chester Schultz. The Pebbles featured a well balanced attack, with both running and passing playing an im¬ portant part. Larry Dunlap ran the team from his quarterback post, while Nile Harper, Jim Draper, Don Brown, Art Wright, Don Stanec, Bill Meyer, Jerry Steele, Dennis Ilesser, John Seward, and Bob McDonald all played important roles. Others who added much to the team were Jerry Piper, Don Foreman, Don Payton, Ron Farren, Larry Dunsmoor, and Bill Wilkens.

Rock Island’s varsity basketball team still managed to finish with a good 16-9 record for the year. The final record doesn’t tell the whole story, however, as four of the losses were by three points or less, and one of the wins was over a great N est Rockford team rated number one in Illinois all season long. It was tin onl.v game the Rockford school lost during the entire season. Three seniors and two juniors made up the usual starting lineup, with seniors Ed Schultz and Rudy Ohrn at the forward posts, junior Tom Anderson at center, and senior Russ Roberts and junior Darrell Crosby at the guard posts. Four other boys, seniors Dick Sabbe. Bill Bowes, and Gary Gray, and junior Jim Westcott all started at some time during the year, and Jim Linden. LeRoy Zentic, and Paul Roessler were top notch reserves. In conference activity, the Rocks finished in a three way tie for second place in the Quad-City loop, and captured third place in the Northwest conference. 90 Basketball THEY CALL THE SHOTS— Assistant coach Don Clark and head coach Wilbur “Strings” Allen.

Although enough stars graduated to leave most coaches moaning about their bad luck, the great depth of the squad leaves coach Kimmel with an optimistic outlook for the spring season. Key men lost from the ’54 squad include George White in the hurdles, Jerry Thomas in 440 and 880, miler La Monte Koonts, weightman Jerry Wheel¬ er, pole vaulters Rob Manhard and Don Roberts, sprinter Don Hart, and middle- distance man Dave LaMere. As a nucleus for this year’s team Kimmel can rely on sprinters Rob Stray¬ er and Rob Rahnsen for the 100 and 220 yard dashes, Lee Nelson and Charlie Harrell in the 440, Ron Herman and Gary Reynolds in the mile, Dick Roarts and Don Allison in high jump and pole vault, and Rill and Rob Burns in the weight events. 100 Track TRACK SCHEDULE -l 1955 April 5 Moline April 9 Dubuque April 12 Davenport April 15 at Clinton April 22 Davenport Relays April 29 Sterling Relays May 3.at Muscatine May 7 Clinton Gateway meet May 13 District meet, here May 17 Quad-City conference (Davenport) May 20-21 State at Champaign May 24 . at Sterling May 28 Northwest conference (Monmouth) Kneeling: Don Payton, and Boh Burns, Standing: Bill Burns.

Initiation of new members, a joint Hi- Y and Y-Teens outing at Camp Hauberg, a Thanksgiving program featuring Mary Ann Kemenyffv, caroling at convalescent homes, and a Christmas service and tea at the YWCA were some of the activities of the first semester. The “Reindeer Ramble,” a holiday dance was sponsored by the Ili-Y and Y- Teens in the YWCA gym. Student directories were provided for the first time this year. Y-Teens also sold mums for Homecoming and served as waitresses at the World Fellowship ban¬ quet.

Led by Irene Monroe, a slave driv¬ ing editor-in-chief, and Sue Michael- sen, managing editor in charge of poetry, we met and conquered the print shop and camera club—why we even stopped Adlai! After seven literary masterpieces, involving the problems of ailing lino¬ types, short stories, ill-fitting proof, and other insurmountable obstacles, we retired, a pooped but wiser crew.

Hon Angle and Bill Leatherman browse through other annuals in search of a gem. We Gave Blood, Sweat, and Tears Activities of this year’s staff were limited to seven months of uninter¬ rupted work. The five senior staff members and their junior assistants spent many after school hours trying to meet copy and engraving deadlines. The book was 16 pages larger this year and for the first time tried to present in an index all the times a person’s picture appeared in the an¬ nual. This proved quite a job as there were over a third more pictures this year. Division pages were changed to two page spreads, a seal was used on the title page, and an attractive black and white cover was selected. Getting all the pictures taken for the Watehtower pre¬ sents quite a problem to photography editors Linnea Stone and Sally Welch. These “trustworthy” girls, Sue Michaelsen and Xauette Wangelin, handle tlu business end of the yearbook. Bring You a Record One souree of funds for the annual is the candy machine. Industriously doing their job are vending machine managers Bill F,d- wards, Arvin Tunick, Bob Nelson, and Jon Michaelsen. The ‘‘brains” behind the 1955 Watchtower were Jim Blackman and Vernon George.
