Immediately thousands of people from all walks of life- armed with picks and shovels. etc.-began the long. difhcult and oftentimes dangerous journey to California. Their aim was that long-sought-after mineral. gold. Lost trails. lack of food and water. bad weather, and hostile Indians were a few of the difficulties the Argonauts faced. Of the fortunates who did manage to survive these hardships. only a few ever actually found the treasure of wealth which they were seeking, Then approximately ninety-six years later. fortyffive anxious teen-agers began a some- what similar journey. They, too. were called '-l9ers if they were armed also. only their tools were pencils and paper and they also had difficulties, though not quite so diflif cult. For you see, some members of the class were affiicted at times with that dreaded disease. ergophobia, some had too many out- side interests and still others didn't have that stick-to-itiveness. But. where the gold-rush- ers found gold ta symbol of materialistic wealthl at the end of several months, the class of '49 found a diploma at the end of four long years. I-Iowever, for some. their journey was not completed. for to them this diploma merely signified that the first bridge on Education Road had been crossed and to them Educa- tion Road is neveraending. So, for the benefit of their friends. fellow classmates and for themselves. the class of '49 has recorded the events of the last year of this four-year journey. 5 1 M7523 Q W r v - ff 5 .A hz: THE 1949 REFLECTUR Published bg the Senior Class SANIHYICII TUWNSHII' HIGH SCHUUL Sumlvivh. lllinoi, Dedication Mlss Gurus: hor four ycars you hnvu faithfully dcvolcd your cncrgy. path-mu .md time lo giyc cach scuior class A bctlur ycarbook.

The Our modern home ec department was completed this new fiuorescent lights are a muchaneeded addition to our summer. school. The Oh's and Ah's that greeted the newly-equipped kitchen, and re- decorated gym would have recompensed those who worked hard during the spring and summer to have everything in tip-top readiness for the fall session. The walls of the kitchen are light blue. The four kitchen units are each well equipped with stainless-steel sink, steel cupboard, and new range. Each one is different. giving the girls varied experience. The gym received a new coat of paint and varnish. The fluorescent lights arrived for the study hall and commerce department in time for a New Year's gift. The lights have thirty-candle power, which is above the requirement. Besides their usefulness, these improvements are welcome because they add to the beauty of our school. The 1949 Reflector Leaders of the Caravan THEY HAVE GUIDED U5 AN MR. FERDEN Among the leaders of our caravan is Mr. Ferden. our superintendent. When any of us are undecided as to which trail to take. he gives us advice. Behind the doors of his ofiice we have CI friend. a man who has an interest not only in the school and its activi- ties but the students as well. To him is deserving every word that can ex- press our admiration. MP., N'I.-XYNARIJ lfltlilil-N.

In the field of sport. eight junior boys represent us on the main varsity football team. Captain Jim O'Neill hailed from this class. On the basket- ball team there are four juniors. Talent in the musical Held is found in abund- ance here, as shown in triple trio. trio. duet and all the choruses. A mixed quartet was also formed from this class. The debate teams benefited from junior talent with three girls on the varsity team. The homecoming parade was gaudy with many floats. special prizes went to the best class float. First place was snagged by the juniors' idea of the results of the game. l.ater the junior assembly pro- gram was presented. A football game was por- trayed with the Sugar Grains playing the Sour Creams in the Cereal Bowl. The skit was an original by Sylvia Dalton with an unusual cast including the family who saw this annual game on their television set. Don't Ever Cirow Up was the highly success- ful play presented by the class. This was the story of a young girl and the trouble she had in growing up. Under the direction of Miss Shiner the play proved to be a delight to the audience and lots of fun for the cast. The annual carnival was presented by the jun- Vice-ljresiclentfhetty lseifheit iors. Although the traditional theme of the carni- val was used many new ideas were added. Everyone had fun making and watching others go through the horror-house. The freak show was more fun than most anything else with its unusual speci- mens of htiman nature. After spending time in the main room. the huge crowd gathered to see the big new variety show. XVith their funny bone still tickling them. all moved back to the gym to spend the rest of the evening dancing to the mttsic of Billy Vvlilliams and his orchestra. The junior and senior classes gathered together to share in the big banquet the juniors sponsored. The good food and the whole evening of enter- tainment were certainly enjoyed bv everybody present. Out-shining all other junior achievements was the prom. A striking scene was presented when the couples floated across the floor at the Colonial Ball. The beautiful colonial porch was the setting for the coronation. The juniors' lovely queen. Mary Ann Morrissey. and her king. Dwaine Dan- newitz. were crowned by the retiring king and queen. ln attendance upon the royal couple were Hazel Anderson. Evelyn Dobbs. Donna Houghtby. Sylvia Dalton. Norma Rex. and Annabelle Nliles. Attending the king were Donald Augustine. Ed- ward Fanning. l-owell Phillips. Karl Rud. Charles Hilliard, and Pete Abens. The ball proved to be very enjoyable to everyone. 26 The IW-W Relletlor SENIORS RICHARD ABIINS JANICK BARR Transfcrrcd from Yorkville High Schuol. l5.H.A. 2: Ci.fX.A. l, 1. 3. 4: ,'N'vwsIu!7 , V. ...Q H 1. 3, 4. editor: A cappclla 3. 4: Girls' Yorkiillc.

In the season of l948 baseball was introduced to the Sandwich students for the first time in many years. This was an experimental year for baseball as Coach Molinari was trying to round out his athletic schedule with one more successful sport. This was an entirely new sport for the Indians for they were well schooled in the softball game.

Varsitg Club President--Jerome Jaffe Vice-Presiden t-Charles Hough Secretary-Treasurerf-Dwaine Dannewitz After a two-year lapse the US Club has been reorganized by Coach Molinari and Superf intendent Ferden with a new name, the Varsity Club. At the present time there are twenty-seven members, consisting of seven seniors, Hfteen juniors, four sophomores, and one freshman. The main purpose of the club is to keep sportsmanship and good conduct prevailing in all sports and to preserve the memories of participation in sports at Sandwich. It strives to bring a better understanding of sports to the community and to organize athletics in the school. The IU-19 Reflector 45 4 , 1m, , e s . 3 al' my 1' 1 'J G. A. A.

Why it's the G.A.A. girls exercising their muscles in the different athletic activities. This year We had as our leader, Miss Marie Eide, who was really tops. The G.A.A. activities started out with the initiation of all new members. You should have seen some of those scared facesf lt be- gan with a hike to the forest preserves fthat is, by the new members! and a Wiener roast. Everyone came back to the high school where the kids were initiated. And did some of them scream when worms were put down their backs! A bowling league was formed and every Tuesday night after school you would see the gals trodding out to the bowling alley where they would bowl a line or two. 46 The G.A.A. also had a part in the big Homecoming Parade. They entered a float with girls riding on it representing different sports. l think they'll all remember the pour- ing rain and their soaking but l'm sure they had a lot of fun doing it. The club sponsored a volley ball tourna- ment. The first and second place winners played the boys and the girls won both games. I guess girls have something over boys after all, although the boys hadnt had as much training in this sport or activity. Around Christmas, the club held Button and Bow Day. Every Jack and Jane bought a cellophane bow with a button. Also a stand at the Little Ten Track Meet brought in some money. The year ended with a gala banquet at which the girls who had earned their awards, received them.

In order to make all this money the girls used their free periods to pop corn in the cafeteria on the days we had home games. Then. at the games in the evenings. they sold the popcorn. coffee. hot dogs and candy to the half-frozen spectators. using the 4-H Club refreshment stand. Means of making money other than selling refreshments were selling sweat shirts. football pins, booster plates and pencils with the basketball schedule printed on them.

If you don't, you had better not let Miss Greer. the editors, or any member of the Reflector Staff know it. for many, many long hours filled with lots and lots of hard work were put into it. with the hopes of send- ing it away to be -judged tsome even hoped to have it classed as All-Americant. Let me tell you the story behind this book. At the beginning of the year the entire staff met. Editor Mary Ann Ford urged each staff member to do his part in publishing a better annual, the theme of the book was chosen, arti- cles were assigned. a deadline set. and the dummy began to take shape. Salesmen began canvassing the student body for subscriptions: reporters strained their brains thinking of clever ideas for articles: photogra- phers began snapping pictures and the art edi- tors started planning the division pages. In November Miss Cireer and the editors sent reservations to the French Lick Springs Hotel in Indiana for the week-end of the National Scholastic Press Association Convention, of which the yearbook staff were members. Ways of improving and financing the yearbook were to have been learned. However, due to trans- portation difhculties, no one was able to attend, so the staff had to get along with other N.S.P.A. suggestions. To earn money to have the book printed, ads were sold. organizations were asked to pay for their pages, the Snow Ball and Homecoming Dance were put on. and Christmas cards were sold by the seniors. After the Christmas vacation articles were proof-read. then typed, pictures were mounted. and then one fine morning, after months of working and planning, the iidummyn was sent to the publishers. And that's the story? But before I hnish let me tell you that the Reflector Staff hopes that it has been successful in reflecting the events of the '48-'49 school year.

'The Three V's Make Latin Fun Fairbury Trip Party at joyt-e's Consul Janet Iiord Consul James Detzler Quaestor Chata Holmes Ifor the past four years there has been a l.atin Club operating within good old S.T.H,S. This well-knit organization has been made possible through the impeccable efforts and leadership of Miss Susan Greer. Latin teacher, The Latin Club was organized to help the Latin students become familiar with Roman culture and customs and to further the gen- eral interest in Roman history and the Latin language. Membership in the club is open to Latin I or ll students. At the beginning of the year Latin l students lplebiansi are initiated by the Latin II students lpatriciansm. Meetings are held once a month at which very interest- ing reports and skits are put on dealing with Roman history. The club has a point system by which bronze, gold or silver medals are earned for participation in club activities. It's Caesarfw was the startled murmur on the rainy afternoon of Nov. 5. but no. how could that be? Caesar has been dead for hun- dreds of yearsf As we all know, this was not Caesar but a very clever impersonation put on as part of the Latin Club float. for the foot- ball fiomeconiing Parade. The Latin Club The IV-19 Reflector float depicted Caesar riding in his chariot in a triumphal procession. The chariot was pulled by two slaves and was decorated in black and orange and purple and white. Ijur- ple and white are Planos colors and also the colors of the Latin Club. Slaves walked by the chariot carrying signs reading Veni. vidi. vicif' Caesar's famous words meaning I came, I saw.

Lindner First hour every Monday was the time the editors, Leon Johnson, lrma Fitzpat- rick and Janice Bark used for assigning art- icles or for doing the exercises Commit- tees had planned for us. Since Mrs. Lind- ner had lots of good ideas and we had a whole period in which to work. several new things were done and learned. For example: At the beginning of the year Mrs. Easter came from the Free Press office and gave us a talk on journalism. Then a trip was made to the Free Press office to Gnd out just how the paper was printed. lt was interesting to watch the machine that set type but it was also interesting to watch the expressions on everyones face as it did it. The 1949 Refleclor l,eon kept a scrapbook of all the articles printed for the Sandscript. Some slides on journalism were shown and of course, the news articles had to be written. 'AAII work and no play was not their motto, for early in the year the members had a hayride, refreshments and allf If the study hall was unusually quiet at noon you would know that A'Sandy Junior, the school paper, had just been sold and everyone was reading about classes. sports, clubs, jokes, and feature articles. The poor editors and Mrs. Lindner worked hard trying to get articles handed in, proof-read. etc. Nevertheless, this work was not in vain, for look what was accomplished! 53 FRENCH CLUB Packing a box for Claude left to right-'Ralph Hubbard, Miss Greer, Patricia Hough, .lanice l.ec Bark, Louise Humiston Marilyn Matusiak.

With Miss Cireer as our joyful, capable. hard working leader and our able staff of officers our ad- vanced club has done many interesting things which have improved our conversa- tional French, givqn us as realistic life pic- ture of France as a country and of the people who make up this honorable war- torn nation. The meetings were held every month in the various homes of the members. Each of us entertained the club with a lovely program, tasty refreshments and French games after our business meetings. During the year, each member had acquired a correspondent in France whose letters have proven most enjoyable. We have seen realistic movies which have given us a true picture of the devastating condi- tions which exist in France. Also the 54 French Club was greatly honored by being invited to hear a pleasing woman from France talk about her native country. Through her elegant speech and sad stories of the hardships of the French people, we learned about a little orphan boy whose parents cannot be identified except to the extent that his mother was an American, I-lis name is Claude Chataignier. He had been adopted by a lovely peasant family and Claude is extremely brilliant in mind. So our club sent Claude and his foster parents a lovely Christmas box of scarce items of great necessity. Our Le Circle Francais has been just like one happy little French family. Always the meetings were looked forward to and because we are all seniors we will always have a feeling of sadness since this was our last year, though an overwhelming success- ful year, together in our atmosphere of Frenchy conversation, customs, and entertainment.

The Future Farmers of America, that group of husky and handsome??? lads under the guidance of Mr. Eade, had an active and successful year Cthough this is nothing un- usual for themfj. To start the activities of the '48-'49 school year, Milford Clausen and Dwight Klotz were sent to the Illinois F. F. A. Convention held at Urbana in June. Bertil Mattson, '48 graduate and former vice-president of Section II attended the convention with them. Not only did our farmer boys pick up quite a bit of information on how to better farming methods at this convention, but they had fun, too, for it seems that whenever a group of boys get together there is always a certain amount of playing done. A fat stock judging team made up of Mari- lyn Hough, Bertil Mattson, and Milford Clausen judged at the state contest and came home proudly sporting a blue ribbon for the 56 . ..,...., Mr. Eade Sandwich chapter. Then. in the hot month of August. the boys took two days off from their farm chores to attend the Wisconsin Centennial at Milwaukee. The old proverb i'Well-bought is half sold proves to be quite accurate. The boys have been buying top quality livestock this past year, thus winning many honors at the Section II F. F. A. show and the Sandwich Fair. The ofhcers of the F. F. A. drove to Ro- chelle in October for the annual Officers' Training School program to get new informa- tion to be distributed among the members. Yes. sir, these boys are really kept busy with trips to livestock shows, meetings, fairs, conventions, the annual barn dance and ini- tiation for the green hands. The F. F. A.'s program of Work was com- pleted by November l and was dedicated to Mr. Fade, who is completing his thirtieth year teaching Ag. in S. T. H. S.

They opened many large books and i'quote boxes. and began discussing the debate question for this year. i'Resolved: That the United Nations be revised into a system of Federal Wcnrlcl Government. This interesting debate question has kept the freshmen and sophomore debaters, Barbara Swisher, Jerome Jaffee. Jim Detzler. Vernon l.osee. George Nesmith. and John McQuown. busy reading debate handbooks and getting valuable experience. The question has kept the varsity debaters very busy reading books. news- papers. magazine articles. listening to news broadcasts. and especially going to tournaments. Ruth Sanderson and Pat Hough were on the negative. and Betty l,eifheit and Sylvia Dalton. with Barbara Swisher as a substitute debated on the afhrmative. The tournaments they attended this year at New Trier High School. La Grange. Geneseo. Normal, DeKalb. Elgin. Rockford. and especially Rock Island will be well remembered by all the debaters: some. because they were non- decision debates where they themselves rated their opposing teams: others. because they were decision debates where the judges gave valuable criticisms. and still others. beiause they won quite a few rounds. They will remember the tournament at Augustana College in Rock Island also because they enjoyed talking to members of other teams. The l'fJ'l Rt-llwtor Next year all the debaters are going to miss Pat Hough. Her ability and hard work have helped to make the team successful in the past two years. The debaters would like to thank Mr. Davis for his help and guidance during the year. Most of the success of the team this year has been due to the leadership of fVlr. Davis. Everyone who has participated in debate joins in saying that they have learned a great deal about current problems and they've had a lot of fun too. Sandwich joined the Metropolitan League this year which is composed mostly of suburban schools. This made more debating possible. Sandwich belongs to the National Forensic l.eague. an organization to which some high school debating clubs belong. Sandwich ranks tenth in seniority of membership in Illinois.

Pat Wittie. Richard Holland, Louise Humiston, and Gordon Barker. Out of these Barbara Dreebin, Pat Vklittie, Richard Holland, Louise Humiston, and Gordon Baker went to the Sectional Contest. This year there were a great number of students who wanted to try theirluck in dramatics. They were in a preliminary contest here, February 16th. They were: Comedy readings: Beverly Tuttle.
