Editor Myrna Johnson Business Manager Janet Fallenstein Cover Design Suanne Beck 1961 REFLECTOR Sandwich High School Sandwich, Illinois The most popular words heard at a game, a pep assembly, or on a rooters' bus are those of our loyalty song. Sandwich High is not just a memorized tune and words, for it means much to us as students; it denotes school spirit; fun in activities and class work; and pride in our school, our teachers, and our own accomplishments. Loyalty Song Represents Our School Sandwich High your echoes will ring, Sandwich High your praises we'll sing, Alma Mater Mother of all, All ways faithful waiting your call, Sandwich High with colors unfurled, Sandwich High will show to the world, Marching on with heads way up high Because we're singing for old Sandwich High.

Martin as L. Scheidecker pauses under the mistletoe. The Christmas tree provides a sparkling background for dancers B. VanWinkle, J. Schmidt, K. Olson, and D. Potter. Moonlight Glows in Gym The huge Christmas tree sat in the middle of the floor as festive-minded people danced around it. The warm spotlight shown down on the snow and its ornaments. Santa’s sleigh sat in one corner with a big red bow adorning the side. Santa came bounding in and delighted the crowd. The colorful murals on the wall brought a touch of the outdoors into the room. The mistletoe hanging in the doorways created excitement and amour for all who attended. But most of all, everyone enjoyed the music of Lew Harker’s Orchestra. The mural of fir trees provides a subject of conversation for S. McFarland, D. Ferden, A. Cort-right, and B. Vickery. A large crowd was drawn by the shouts of barkers, antics of clowns, and the bright costumes of stand workers at the Junior Carnival on March 25. Some of the many attractions were Dunk the Clown; miniature golf; the cake walk; Madam Zingara, the fortune teller; and the auction that sold everything from sweaters to tailpipes. Side amusements included an original fun house and side show. A variety show sponsored by the student council followed the carnival. A balloon drop filled with confetti floated to the floor silently covering the crowd while they danced to the music of Ray Cisneros' Band. B. Paulson receives kisses from K. Olson and B. VanWinkle for finding the red heart. Carnival Starts Spring Activities After being dunked several times, this poor clown, B. Anderson, has to mop up the water. The pineapple provides a novel setting for the crowning of queen and king, G. Phelper and J. Gavic, by retiring queen and king, J. Hough and R. Martin. Bali Hai Will Call You . . From the island of Bali Hai, the royalty greet their subjects. ROW ONE, Left to Right: J. Legner, R. Felstead, D. Tope, C. Gauer, J. Underwood, M. Cervantes, O. Cervantes, L. Flavin, A. Cortright, W.

LaBoube; K. Olson; T. Fritsch. Linda Flavin and Jeff Underwood, crownbearers, captivate the audience with their dancing and smiles. The seniors accepted an invitation extended by the junior class to spend an evening on Bali Hai. King of the Islands, Robert Gord, and Aloha Girl, Doris Trout, welcomed the guests to an attractive banquet and the after dinner entertainment. Karen Hardersen and Philip Lindner sang last year’s theme song, Raintree County. Junior Surf Singers then set the mood for the 1961 prom, Song of the Island, by performing melodies from South Pacific. The seniors were astonished by the full effect of the paradise which had once been a gym. A huge lava-streaked volcano greeted them with fiery red action. The George Nickles band seemed to be inspired by their grass-hut corner, for their version of Bali Hai was very exotic. Giant palm trees stretched up to a clear blue sky. The Island of Bali Hai sported an oversized yellow pineapple, in which Queen Ginger Phelper and King James Gavic were crowned. But the most beauteous and popular spot was the charming wishing pond. Four reluctant ducklings and a frog enjoyed swimming amidst the jungle of greens and flowers. The waterfall above this placid scene cascaded colorfully down amid the flowers and greens. The spell of this island paradise touched everyone with a magic bliss. Pretending to be native boys is exciting to Manuel and Oscar Cervantes, who unrolled the white carpet. D. Potter recalls old memories as he chats with R. Moyers, R. Martin, and G. Gord before the Grand March. MKIll Seniors listen intently as Mr. J. E. Bowen delivers the address. Commencement activities began with Awards Night on May 26. This was a new activity sponsored by the National Honor Society. Seniors and other students were given recognition for scholarship, citizenship, leadership, and club participation. Baccalaureate was held on the following Sunday. Rev. Edvin K. Holmer delivered an address entitled The Perilous Plateau. Thursday afternoon was Class Day. Seniors sat on the stage during the informal program in which LeAnn Scheidecker and Regina Morrissey were co-mistresses of ceremonies. Students laughed as Doris Kitner read the class will and Larry Wright read the prophecy. The class history was read by Myrna Johnson. The audience enjoyed Roger Griffith’s organ selections and Ed Prestegaard's original poem. The program closed with the motto ’61 can't be outdone shouted by the seniors. One June 2 graduation exercises were held at the Lynn G. Haskin school where Mr. J. E. Bowen gave an inspiring talk on our assignment in the future. Salutatorian Susan Hough spoke on prejudices, and Valedictorian Janet Fallenstein presented a speech on individualism. Diplomas Are D. Decker helps T. Mall don his graduation robe.

The F.F.A. boys lived up to this reputation by winning first place with their homecoming float. They constructed a huge corncob with “Ruff Earlville Up! as the clever slogan. They participated in the State Judging Contest held at Springfield last summer, where Bob Middleton won a blue ribbon for his talents. November 8 they held a Grain Show in the Ag. Shop in which Bob entered grain and captured another first prize. The club members were thrilled to watch the auc- tioning and selling of the grand champion beef calf at the International Livestock Exposition in Chicago. They attended the Farm Progress Show in Joliet, where they saw exhibits of improved com plots and advancements in horticulture shown by the University of Illinois. They also participated in various local judging contests throughout the year. The gentlemen provided entertainment at a combined party with the F.H.A., while the ladies furnished refreshments. The members proudly display the framework for one of their projects, a pig feeder. ROW ONE, Left to Right: J. Elleby, J. Meade, J. Larson, W. Eberle, D. Johnson, C. Roisland, E. Potter, J. Webber, F.

This seasonal rally included a speaker on marriage, a style show, and an interesting movie. A candlelight ceremony followed by singing brought the rally to a close. A big event was the party given by the F.F.A. boys, with entertainment in the form of basketball, volleyball, ping-pong, and other games. April 12 was an important day for the nine new initiates. They dressed in good clothes, wore aprons, put doilies on their heads, and carried kitchen utensils to symbolize their aims. That night the club enrollment became twenty-two as these nine girls were made official members during a candlelight ceremony. The making of Easter tray favors for the hospital was a worthwhile service. The mother-night-out proved very successful. Each girl took her mother out to dinner and picked up the check. The capable F.H.A. officers: Pres. G. Phelper, Treas. S. Gengler, Sec. B. Nelson, and V. Pres. N. Storzbach sort old clothes for the use of the Good Will Industry. 15 Fifteen girls were initiated into G.A.A. this year increasing the number of members to fifty-one. Members participated in volleyball, basketball, medicine ball, bowling, swimming, and golf. They took lessons in shooting under the supervision of the Rifle Club. A combined G.A.A.-Pep Club pajama party was held in the gym after a sock hop. Entertainment for the evening included two spine-tingling movies, hide and seek throughout the school, and a game of basketball. The girls took a trip to Camp Dean for practice in outdoor skills. Selling candy at noon was one of the moneymaking projects. The awards were set up on a national basis. Points were received by attending meetings and taking part in athletics. A girl who earned 75 points was given a pin, or one earning 150 points was presented a letter. The advisor was Miss Jordan. The active officers get clubs from the cage to practice golf.

We Gain Experience Through Postal Match The Rifle Club's enthusiastic president, Joe Barker, produced a number of changes for its members. Their meetings were held in the evenings, once a week. They planned a field trip to the South-Town Rifle Match in Chicago during March. This match involved high schools all over the Midwest. They also attended the N.R.A. Championship match in Evanston. The twenty-three members participated in a Postal Match and defeated marksmen all over the country. Three members achieved the rank of Sharpshooter: Joe Barker, Bill Anderson, and Ken Hagar. The capable officers, K. Hagar, Sec.-Treas.; K. Price, V. Pres.; and J. Barker, Pres., set up the sighting scopes for a shooting session.

Articles appearing weekly in the Sandwich Free Press included writeups of sports, special events, and various club activities. Their competent editor for the first semester was LeAnn Scheidecker. The Christmas theme was skillfully woven throughout their first issue of the Sandy Jr. Carmen Howard was chosen editor for the second semester. She expertly supervised the writing of articles for the Aurora Beacon News. Each week a member from the staff wrote a column which reviewed the recent activities. The librarians were busy checking out books and magazines, helping students, and generally keeping the library neat and orderly. The Librarians' Club was composed of eighteen members with Mrs. Wutzke as supervisor. Each member contributed one period of the day to do the necessary and important work. An interesting tour of Northern Illinois University libraries was taken on April 6. In co-operation with the public library, they celebrated Library Week which was from April 16-22. Posters were made for Book Week to emphasize the important place books play in our lives. Capable officers of the Librarians' Club perform some daily tasks: repairing the books and magazines, and keeping the card catalogue in order. ROW ONE, Left to Right: Mrs. Wutzke, supervisor; D.

Council Backs Student Projects Some of the many duties of student council were organizing the homecoming parade, operating the ice cream machine, running concessions, and taking tickets at basketball games. Mr. Wesner, Luisa Torchiani, and five members attended the Northeast-Northwest District Convention. At the beginning of the year, hand books of school rules were given to freshmen. Many good ideas were placed in the suggestion box which was in the library. In November the school's waste cans were painted black and orange. Janet Fallenstein drew the winning official Indian head for the school. The scrapbook, a welcome addition to the library, contained writeups of school activities that were printed in the newspapers of neighboring towns. Luisa Torchiani was presented money to call her parents in Rome on Christmas Day. In March a telephone was installed near the gym for student use. Several fund raising activities were held for A.F.S.: a variety show, sock hops, Old Clothes Day, Burmuda Day, and the selling of tags and Shares of Good Will. The money gained was used to finance a foreign student and also for sending a student abroad this summer. Student council members discuss plans for an Old Fashioned Day. Left to Right: M. Todd, J.

As a change of pace this year, Les Berets Noirs met at the homes of members. During the Christmas season some of the girls sang carols at the hospital and Sand-haven. Many sent Christmas cards to last year's Danish A.F.S. student, Helle Neilsen. Paris Bingo was an added novelty for entertainment at the meetings. Pencil games helped them review their vocabulary of French words. French II students presented The Three Wishes for the club and at the variety show. LeAnn Scheidecker and Jeanne Steffen portrayed the woodcutter and his foolish wife. Homemade fudge and cookies were sold at a sock hop. Luisa Torchiani's parents sent them colorful French insignia to wear on their berets. In April they spent an educational and interesting Saturday in Chicago. The French Club learns new Christmas carols. ROW ONE, Left to Right: Mrs. Lindner, L. Torchiani, J. Peterson, K. Hardersen, D. Tope, A. Cortright, M. Todd, R. Henry, L. Scheidecker, P. Gowdy, N. Rex.

We Meet Italy Through Luisa Our second American Field Service student, Luisa Torchiani of Rome, entered our community with lively enthusiasm. She lived with the Delbert Gowdy family, and celebrated her eighteenth birthday with them on April 7. Luisa participated in Pep Club, French Club, Rifle Club, bowling league, speech contest, and the senior play.

Luisa's vivacious personality and merry disposition won her many new friends. Luisa promises to be a good investment in friendly foreign relations. ’’Alma Mater, Mother of all, RICHARD MARTIN Commercial V.

As school opened we, the class of 61, let it be known to all underclassmen that we were seniors. Our prestige ran high until we received last place on our home-coming float, We'll Crush 'Em. We had so many slogans we didn't know which one to use. We were all exceedingly happy and noisy the night we won the Jr.-Sr. Hunt. Thirteen senior boys fought long and hard during football games. Senior girls were seen cheering on the sidelines in all kinds of weather. Only five seniors played basketball this year, but their spirit remained high throughout the season. At the Christmas dance, Moonlight and Mistletoe, the sleigh, a decorated Christmas tree, and a visit from Santa brought the holiday spirit. On January 30, we went to Northern Illinois University to the DeKalb County Youth Conference on human relations. There we met with 800 seniors from our county to discuss prejudices, minority groups, and inter-school relationships. Besides presenting our class play, Our Hearts Were Young and Gay, we took our turn at concessions and played an active part in many school clubs. Our extra-curricular activities kept us busy, but then there were still classes to attend. Seniors seemed bewildered by complicated trig problems. The smell of ether filled the third floor as the physics class experimented with the dew point. The small Bookkeeping II class always wanted a movie. In American Problems classes, students debated heatedly on integration, labor unions, and party platforms. The auto mechanics boys were proud when they wore their new white shirts decorated with old cars. Secretary day was started second semester and girls in heels were seen wobbling up the stairs. In College English we wrote term papers. Those of us who were college bound had the nerve-racking experience of taking college entrance exams and scholarship tests. Ordering our graduation robes and announcements, planning commencement and class night programs, and watching the juniors decorate for the prom proved to us we were soon leaving Sandwich High. 36 61” Can’t PHILIP LINDNER Busine ss Football 1,2; Basketball Mgr. 2; Rifle Club 1; Latin Club Pres. 1; Band 1,2,3, Show Band 2; Sr. Play.

Close Schedule Keeps Juniors Busy Judith Abe ns John Anderson As juniors we tackled advanced courses. In Math III we found that solid geometry was sometimes hard to visualize. Many odors drifted out of the chemistry lab. The College Prep English students tried to improve their own writing through the study of great American classics. In American history we learned about our local and state governments. Girls were seen taking notes in shorthand on what was said in other classes. Many days of school had passed before we received our long awaited class rings. Hours of hard work produced the huge pink soda mug that appeared on our homecoming float, 'Ice-cream for Sandwich, Soda you.” Late in the fall we hunted the seniors. To our disappointment they were not found and we had to pay for the refreshments. Our production of No More Homework,” which played to a capacity crowd, was fun for the cast from beginning to end. During January, Alice Cortright and James Gavic represented us at the human relations conference for seniors. Mountains of confetti, balloons, and prizes were reduced to rubble in the fun at our carnival on March 25. In May many exciting hours were spent in preparation for our prom and banquet, which were the climax of a busy year.

Rosalind Eisner Darlene Erickson 43 As sophomores we began our year with a more superior and secure feeling than we had a year ago. A few weeks later we got out whole-heartedly to work on our class float, The B are Facts, which took first prize. After the last football game we held a Halloween Hop to raise money. Decorations of jack-o'-lanterns and skeletons created a spooky atmosphere for a truly enjoyable and well-attended dance. The selling of personalized stationery and car washes boosted our treasury. Our English literature book introduced us to Silas Marner and Caesar. The translating of Latin and French stories became a frequent assignment. In plane geometry we proved theorems and constructed plane figures. Learning to peck with both hands proved a new experience for those in typing. Mr. Underwood's life was endangered every day as we took our turns at the wheel of the driver's training car. Through dissecting in biology we became acquainted with the structure of internal organs of animals. An old fashioned class party was held in February. Some of us competed in chess, card games, pantomines, and other games held in the library. At the same time others shared in the fun of ping-pong, shuffleboard and dancing in the gym. Joyce Ferris, who won the Voice of Democracy contest, was presented a plaque. We were thrilled to receive our class rings in May. Again this year we were proud to have a larger percentage of students on the honor roll than any other class.

We elected Richard Wallis as president to guide us through the year. Our vice-president, JoAnne Neuhauser; secretary, Jerry Holley; and treasurer, Glenda Kitner were chosen to assist him. Ardis Mc-Quate, Leila Hardekopf, and John Elleby represented us in student council. Our class float, We'll Cannonball to Victory, won second place in the homecoming parade. A cannon shooting footballs over the goal-post pointed to a sure victory. Our first big assignment was gathering boxes for the pow-wow bonfire. Jay Larson, dressed as an Indian, lit what we thought was the largest pile of boxes in the history of Sandwich High. Our two peppy cheerleaders, Glenda Gord and Susan Walker, urged on our football players: Michael Lahey, James Webber, Richard Wallis, and Dan Johnson; and our basketball players: Gilbert Buttels, Randolph Shook, David Holmer, Jerry Holley, Jay Larson, and Richard Wallis. Susan Moyers played the double role of Tom Sawyer and his girl friend in a comedy selection delivered at the local speech contest, while Susan Walker, reading poems of a more serious nature, represented the school in verse reading at the district contest. The air was astir with foreign phrases as we practiced our Latin and French vocabularies. English class acquainted us with that fascinating character, David Copperfield. In algebra we explored the mysteries of x and y. Several freshmen enrolled in a new course, General Business, which taught us to use their money wisely.

Indians Have See-Saw Season Sandwich's varsity had a very irregular 1960 campaign. The record showed that the Indians alternated their wins and losses for most of their games. Throughout the season Sandwich proved that they had the best defensive team in the Fox Valley Conference. The Indians allowed the opponents an average of a little more than seven points a game, but the offense couldn't come through with points when they were needed. The Varsity has lost thirteen seniors this year, including both co-captains--Bob Whiteis and Butch Helin. Three linemen--guard, Butch Helin; tackle, Joe Barker; and end, Jerry Schmidt—were selected to the All-Conference team and also received Special Mention for the Chicago Daily News Little All-State team. A total of twenty lettermen finished the season, seven of whom will return next year. The Fresh.-Soph, team played well, but won only one game; that victory was against Marseilles. The team had some fine players who will be an asset next year. Highlights of the varsity season were Sandwich's 33-0 Homecoming victory over Earlville and their exciting win against Plainfield, which closed the season. The Indians finish the season in fourth place. ROW ONE, Left to Right: J. Barker, W. Whicker, R. Gord, W. Anderson, D. Potter, R. Martin, J. Gavic. ROW TWO: W. Francis, T. Meade, T. Fritsch, J.

Though the varsity found their wins difficult to obtain, their games were always exciting and hard fought. Throughout the season the Indians displayed good sportsmanship, a quality worthy of much praise. This year’s five junior lettermen will be back next year to try to improve the won-lost record. The freshman-sophomore team was more successful, closing the season with 12 wins and 9 losses. Only an occasional streak of bad luck prevented a better record. They did, however, emerge at the end of the year in fourth place, an indication of a good future. SANDWICH VARSITY OPPONENTS 61 . . YORKVILLE . . . . 76 47 . . OSWEGO 54 67 . . LELAND 62 61 . .

After many thrilling football games, they entered the basketball season. To better inter-school relationships, they treated the visiting cheerleaders to pop in the cheerleaders' room between halves of games. At the weekly pep sessions they were responsible for leading the student body in yells to arouse a fighting spirit for the games. Assisting the senior Pep Club members, they helped make decorations for the Athletic Banquet. The tables were attractive with silhouettes of players and placecards representing basketballs and footballs. Recognition at this event ended a successful and fun-filled year. During a successful fresh.-soph, game the jr. varsity cheerleaders—K. Carter, G. Ford, S. Walker, and V. Cronin--lead the crowd in a lively yell. K. Carter, G. Gord, and V. Cronin ride in the homecoming parade to boost the spirit for the important game. 69 The Pep Club, led by the cheerleaders, root for the basketball boys at a home game. ROW ONE, Left to Right: J.

We Thrive On Pep If you came to the football and basketball games this year, you might have heard the Mickey Mouse Song sung with a catchy change of words. This was one of the Pep Club's novel ideas. The officers developed an efficient system of getting their work done in groups, under the headings of ways and means, pep skits, and signs. The finance committee arranged a Hate Boys Day. If any Pep Club member communicated with a boy she was fined 10$. She was obliged to wear a slip of paper on her school sweater and each boy she talked to signed his name on it. The boy whose name appeared most on the tags was Denny Ferden, who was dubbed Mr. Irresistible. The committee also sold black sweat shirts with orange Indians imprinted on them. The skit crews put on a number of shows for the student body during cheering assemblies. One of the most memorable was a rendition of the Jack Paar show with Pack Jar as the host. Another was a farce demonstrating the variety of cheerleaders throughout the ages from the Stone Age where the girls wore animal skins, the Charleston Age where they donned flapper dresses and long beads, to the Beatnik Age where they wore tights and sweatshirts. The third team kept the students energetic with invigorating and eye-catching posters in the halls.

Mr. Lundquist returned from a convention to find the school in bedlam. He finally managed to straighten matters out with the help of sleepy Faversham Lightly. As a reward for the students' efforts, they were given no more homework for one whole day. Committees behind the scenes helped the play run smoothly. Henry La Boube and David Pence were in charge of special effects. Bert Vickery was stage manager and Karen Olson gathered all props needed in the play. Alice Cortright prompted the characters very efficiently and Mary Teal, assistant director, worked diligently with Mrs. Violet Lindner in directing the play.
