DEDICATION In dedicating the 1942 Reflector, we, the Seniors, have chosen an ideal rather than an individual, an ideal representing a student body which will not only talce full advantage of all the educational facilities provided them, but which will also enter into the extracurricular activities with a determination to get as much out of them as possible. With world conditions as they are at the time of publication, it is becoming increas- ingly evident that the high school students of today are going to be the leaders of tomorrow, the leaders to whcm the worla will loolc for guidance and the formulation of a lasting peace. Only by laying a firm foundation now can we fulfill these expec- tations in the future. CONTENTS ADMINISTRATION SENIORS CLASSES ATHLETICS ACTIVITIES FOREWORD It has been the sincere aim ol the Reflector stall to malce this a boolc which will truly picture the 'I94'I-'I942 school year in review. We have tried to show at least once, the lace of every individual in the school and to catch glimpses of various school activities. If this boolc still alfords a moment's pleasure to the casual browser in 1960, our aim will have been fulfilled.

Throughout the year many ol the stall members have had writers cramp, and our typists, hangnails from their ellorts put forth on the REFLECTOR. Under the able leadership of l-lugh l-laugh, the editor, and Stanley Werner, the business manager, the annual was arranged and financed. Stanley reminded stu- dents in the assembly to purchase their boolcs early, and he wore a well-trodden path to town to secure photos and Financial help, and to sell annuals. lone Q'Neill, his assistant, spent many busy days with her little blacl4 boolc checking the money obtained from the senior salesmen. The shouts hold it followed by a chiclc indicat- ed thot Kenneth Mattison and Jaclf Carr, our capable Hsnapn artists, were in action. The entire statl hopes that reading this REFLECTQR will bring as much enjoyment to you as they have had in preparing it, I-l SENIOR WILL This famous jury trial is the caseolthe probation of the will ol the S.

Fun Company over Station G O A L. Master of Ceremonies: What year did you enter Kindergarten? Seniors: Some of us entered the A. E. Woodward, others the W. W. Woodbury School in 1999. There we came under the supervision of Mrs. Lowry. M. C.: I'low long did you attend the separate schools? Srs.: For three years. We all entered the A. E. Woodward School for fourth grade but were divided into two classes. In Fifth grade we experi- enced the thrill of our first public performance in the operetta, When Toys Come to Life. M. C.: Did you participate in any special activ- ities in junior high? Srs.: In eighth grade we were responsiblelor cn Armistice Day Program at the theatre based on the theme of Liberty. Some of the members displayed theatrical talent in a Christmas play given at the high school entitled Why the Chimes Pang. M. C.: After such a good start, you must have had an exciting graduation. Srs.: The highlight of the occasion was the pre- sentation of the American Legion awards by Mr. Cain to Esther Middaugh and Russell Swenson. M. C.: Tell us something about your freshman yeof. Srs.: Lilce all freshmen classes, we roamed I8 dazedly about hunting for our classrooms. Most of the girls joined the G. A. A., and the boys toolc part in baslcetball and football, at least getting the chance to sit on the bench. Some of the more fortunate ones even had a chance to play. M. C.: And I suppose everything was in full swing during your scplfcmore year? Srs.: All of the girls were excited about the elec- tion of the first five girls to the Pep Club, each hop- ing to be one ofthe Iuclcy few. Some of the music- ally inclined members of our class played leading rolls in the operetta, The Fire Prince, while others sang in the chorus, At the time of the junior- senior prom, the girls in quaint southern fashion served at the banquet. M. C.: What were the highlights of your junior year? Srs.: We sponsored a dance and a mixer, two of the successful S. T. I-I. S. events of 1940-1941. Having accepted the challenge of the seniors for the annual hunt, we allowed them the privilege of being victorious. When it came time for us to purchase our class rings, the air vibrated with ex- citement. The dramatically inclined members of the class presented the overwhelming success, Everybody Worlcs But Father. Later with Beverly Eichelberger as our May Queen we sailed through the junior-senior prom on our never-to-be-forgotten Steamship. The climax of the evening came when SENIOR CLASS IN REVIEW CContinuedJ the crowd witnessed the ceremoniaI crowning of the May Queen. M. C.: And in what important events did you participate in your year of all years, your senior year? Srs.: In 1941-1942 the seniors issued the chal- Ienge for the annual hunt and were successful in out-smarting the juniors and upholding the class dignity. The senior girIs voted EIeanor Kessler recipient of the honorary D. A. I2. award. In Iceeping with the season ofthe year, the members of the class produced the pIay, Spring Fever. The annuoI senior picnic was the Iast social gathering of the entire cIass. The BaccaIaureate sermon was given by Rev. Congdon at the Federated Church on May 31. Class night was June 3, grad- uation, June 4. M. C.: With your high ideals and outstanding aI3iIity, you seniors wiII undoubtedly be returning here to Station G 0 A L quite IrequentIy. We wish you much happiness and success and hope that each of you wiII achieve your goaI in Iife. It seems Ionger, but it was only seven years ago that these boys guarded the crossings near the A. E. Wood- ward schooI. Twelve ofthe eighteen graduate this year, Five Ieft schooI or moved, and one, Albert Gauer, has passed on. 19 SPRING FEVER The senior class play Spring Fever, directed by Miss Sarah Reed, verified a suspicion which had been aroused the previous year, namely-that certain members of the class were gifted with dramatic ability if they cared to use it. Cn the night of April 94, the cast of'lQseniors gave a stellar performance which was witnessed bya capacity crowd. Spring Fever is a comedy in three acts with its setting in a boarding house located in a smallcollegetown, From the opening curtain until the last explosion an over-zealous chemistry student and a suspected kidnapping create plenty of suspense. Couple a plot lil4e this with a group of actors who play their parts as though they were written for them and the result is inevitable-the play is a success, The cast.

Athletically, the junior class was outstanding. For the second straight year it copped the class baslcetball tourney despite great odds. Don Armstrong, Jerry Gengler, Qrrin Johnson, Jimmy Mclnnes, Russell Klotz, James Allen, Jaclc Koehler, and Donald Osland performed steadily all year in an ellort to bring added glory to their class ond school.

S., the freshmen of 'l94'l-1942 lost no time in becoming acquainted with the rules and regulations which were to govern them during the four years of their high school lile. Alter the First two or three weelcs ol school it was impossible to distinguish them from the sophomores or juniors except by their size. Kent Goldbranson, Morris Hutchinson, Bob Scott, and Charles Walker displayed a wealth of natural loot- ball and baslcetball talent, thus casting a hopeful glow on the luture ol S. T. H. S. athletics. Several members with talent in the field of music joined the glee clubs and band, while others divided their interests among such activities as Newstahf, G. A. A., and Junior De- ate.

Despite the loss of six lcey men by graduation, the Grange and Blaclc successfully met the onslaughts of their opponents and finished the season with a record of one win, two ties, and three defeats. Captain Hugh Hough led his teammates in upholding the most cherished of all Sandwich traditions-Sandwich has not lost a scheduled football game to Plano in seventeen years. By sheer grit and determination, the local gridiron heroes held l3lano's powerful team to a scoreless tie. The Sandwich defeats were at the hands- of Geneva, West Aurora, and Lemont-three of the strongest teams in this vicinity. Plainfield was scalped by the lndians, and Yorkville was held to a tie on their home field. Coach Anderson deserves commendation for turning out such a fighting team. This season proved once again that a fighting spirit is the prime requisite ofa good football team. 26 BASKETBALL Standing: Byford Allen, Richard Martin, Donald Osland, Hugh Hough, Mr. Anderson.

W Although they were plagued throughout the year by a two-point jinx which cost them several hard fought ball games, the S. l. H. S. baslcetball team endeared itsell to the hearts ol the Sandwich fans by its performance in one game-the Somonauk battle. After talting a 59-TQ lacing early in the season from the powerful Little Ten Tournament winners the boys bounced baclc in the return engagement to lose by a heartbreaking Q4-QQ count alter giving the neighboring lads the scare of their lives. The team consisted mainly of juniors an omen that spells no good lor the rivals ol S. T. H. S. next season. The fcontinued on next pagep 27 B A S K E T B A L L CContinuecD Grange and Black was beaten Q9-Q8 in the last Q5 seconds by Leland in the Little Ten Tournament. Two weeks later in a Conference battle the Indians handed the same Leland team a ten point defeat. The second team enjoyed moderate success throughout the year, winning over half their games. Coach Anderson presented the letters at the annual athletic banquet in the spring. Major letter winners were Captain Hugh l-lough, Richard Martin, Bylord Allen, Wendell Fender, Donald Armstrong, Russell Klotz, james Allen, Donala Csland, Jerry Gengler, and Bruce l-lough. The boys also attended the lourth annual Kiwanis Club county basketball banquet at DeKalb on April 6. Coach Ray Elliot of the University of Illinois was the speaker.

T. l-l. S. participated in a lull intramural schedule including basket- ball, wrestling, boxing, and soltball. Noon-League Champions During the winter months, the Noon League Basketball League held lull sway. Alter two rounds ol practice play, the six teams met in a tournament. The Davis Triangles won the cup by nosing out Mess's Latins, the champions of the practice rounds. The Triangles exhibited real offensive and de- fensive power, but they lost their challenge match to the regular light-weight team.
