The Freshman initiation was held on September 19, 1948. The boys were dressed in diapers to repre- sent babies, and the girls wore long underwear. Their class colors were chosen as blue and gold and their flower a yellow rose. The banner was pre- sented to the assembly by the class president. The first class party was held at the Coal Creek Country Club. The second party was in the gym- nasium and games of basketball and volley ball were enjoyed. The class dance was an event of December 23, 1948. in the high school gymnasium. Music was furnished by julian Heene and his orchestra. The gym was decorated in the Yuletide tradition. During the year the class lost two members, Mary Catherin Sullivan and Andrew Peed. Steve Speak- man joined the class from Annawan, then Carol 'lhompson joined for the second semester. 1949-1950 Fifteen classmates retumed for their second year of high school.

The officers were elected as fol- lows: President-Lynn Linaweaver, Vice-President- Marvin Cunningham, Secretary-Kathleen jones, Treasurer-Marlene jolmson. The parties the class attended was a show in Ke- wanee and skating at the rink in Princeton. The year proved to be a verv active year for the junior class. The class sold milk and candy during the noon hour and popcorn, candy and pop at games. They also sold blue and gold basketball pencils dur- ing the year. The class presented their play April 6 under the direction of Miss Dorothy 1fVambaugh. The play was The Inner Willie. A prom and banquet was given in honor of the Seniors on May 17. The theme was Moonlight and Rosesf' A member of the class, Eileene Chasteen, was elected cheerleader. The class was well represented in various field of sports. Marlene johnson was chosen to attend Girls State in jacksonville. 1951-1952 As the fall of 1951 came, also came 17 Seniors. Clara Gibson has entered the class from Wyanet.

The Seniors initiated the Freshmen on September 18. The dance was held September 21 after a football game with Tiskilwa. Music was by VValter Lanter- back and his orchestra. Their first class party was held September 29 at the skating rink in Princeton. Mr. and Mrs. Rad- unzel ehaperoned the party as Miss Kuczera was unable to attend. October 3rd found the Seniors out selling ads for the yearbook. The class chose Ready Made Family as their play which they gave November 16. At that time a bouquet of red roses was presented to the director, Mrs. Shull. The Typing ll Class composed of eleven seniors put out a monthly newspaper called The Cardettc . Six members of the Senior Democracy Class pre- sented a debate for the P. T. A. meeting, january 14. The debate was Should VVomen be Drafted for Civil Defense l'Vork?'! Those debating on the nega- tive side were Shirley Sipes, Edith Marie Newman, and Mary Catherine Sullivan. On the affirmative side were Phil Hand, Pete Van Meir, and Lynn Lina- weaver. The Seniors are looking forward to another class party, the junior Senior Prom and the Senior trip, and also their careers at the end of the school year. SENIOR CLASS PROPHECY Hello folks, we are greeting you from the Lina- weaver YVinter Resort. Mr. Linaweaver, being a member himself, has invited the class of 1952 as his guests. He seems to have made quite a thing out of this resort. Starting only with a sled and a pair of skiis, he has enlarged the resort to one of the largest in the state of XVisconsin. As we walk around the premises wc find the for- mer Eleanor Ray, and her husband Ivan Mark, pre- paring to take a ride in one of the many sleighs. VVe notice a very distinguished gentleman already in the sled. YVhy, its none other than that famous usher, Mr. Phil Hand, who owes his entire and most success- ful career to his old job back at the Royal theater in Sheffield, Illinois. As we walk a little further we see Miss Kathleen jones, Miss Edith Marie Newman and Mr. Dennis Morrasy, who have made great starts in the teach- ing porfession. Miss jones is now principal of the new high school in Sheffield. Mr. Morrasy, who is head English instructor, and Miss Newman, Head Physical Education Instructor, have been employed at the same school for four years now and are making quite a record for themselves. Mr. Steve Speakman, the world's most famous pro- fessor of commercial studies, specializing in book- keeping, arrived with skates in hand, daring the ice. Mr. Russell Hansen has been seen demonstrating to a group how he acquired the world's most undevel- oped VVeight Lifter's Championship. VVe notice that in one of the vacant lots, quite a crowd has gathered. Let's go over and see what's go- ing on. WVhy, it's Mr. Marvin Frank and his wife, the former Cheryl jones .of Sheffield. They are dem- onstrating their ability to train white horses. Mr. and Mrs. Frank have made themselves quite well known throughout Illlinois by the performance of their white horses, which they train on their 1,000 acre farm north of Sheffield. VVe have just received a telegram from Miss jean Sprowls that her arrival will be delayed, due to the fact that she has been unable to locate her chauffer for the trip up to the Linaweaver Resort. Off to my right can be heard the loud bellowing of a moose. Wait a minuteg No, I'm wrong. It's Mr. Marvin Van Meir, the famous star of the Can You Top That , now a nationally broadcasted program. Mr. Van Meir got his start by his boisterous stories at the Sheffield High School. Here comes the former Clara Gibson and her hus- band, Mr. Robert Lee Oloffson. They are residing at their home in NVyanet. Mr. and Mrs. Oloffson were married right after Miss Gibson graduated and have raised a family of four. They are planning to move to Georgia before too long. WVell, here's Doctor Sipes. Miss Sipes started her study as a chiropedist Cfoot specialistj, after her many hard years of misery during her high school days. VVe have just spotted the noted fashion designer and model, Miss Eileene Chasteen. Miss Chasteen de- signs and models her own clothes and has started a string of ladies clothing stores throughout the coun- try. Miss Chasteen got her start as a designer, due to her deep interest in fashions as a teenager. Admiral Cunningham and his wife, the former Marlene johnson, have just arrived with five of their ten sons, to prepare the lunch to be served after the arrival of all the guests. Admiral Cunningham has been stationed aboard the U. S. S. Cunningham, which he himself designed and built. The day was brought to a close with a grand and glorious music concert, conducted by the famous concert and orchestra leader, Miss Mary Catherine Sullivan. Miss Sullivan played a mean clarinet during her high school years and majored in music while in college. VVe hope that we can all return to Mr. Linaweav- er's resort 10 years from now. Until then, good-by all! JUNIOR - SENIOR PROM May 12, 1951 PROGRAM VVelcome ,.., ,..,.,.,,, .,,,,,.,,,. A ,,,,,,,,,, ,.,,....

' 29 FRESHMAN INITIATION September 18 was a day for sights at school. That was the day of the Freshman Initiation. The boys wore short dresses with one corner pinned up showing the corset and hose they wore. One leg had a hose on, while the other was bare. The bare foot had a high heel shoe and the stocking foot had on a tennis shoe. The girls wore tights and halter on top of long underwear worn backwards. Their hair was pinned up with pinch clothespins. The new teachers were also dressed for the occasion. Mrs. Shull wore her bright colored bathrobe over overalls, with bed- room slippers. Her hair was half pinned up with the other half not pinned. Mr. Radunzel was a shepherd with a long cape and wore an old straw hat. He carried a staff. Miss Hopkins wore a skirt and a man's shirt with an old straw hat. Everytime the freshmen saw a Senior they all bowed down and touched their toes three time while saying, I bow down to thee, most honorable Senior. If you were around in the evening, you may have thought Arthur Godfrey had moved his radio station here. If you took another look you would have seen it was only the seniors initiating the freshmen. Marvin Van Meir did a good imitation of Arthur Godfrey although you'll have to admit there's quite a difference in looks- in favor of Pete, of course! The seniors acted as the Talent Scouts. Each introduced his talent, who was a freshman, and told the audience where they found this person and what he would do. Many freshmen were surprised to find out just what they could do. Before we got the show rolling we had the Cardetts singing Shine on Harvest Moon. The Cardetts we found out were Helen Cathelyn, Martha Nutter, and Mari- lyn Stonewall. First to discover his talent was VVayne Smith. It seems he had just come back from Honolulu and had brought with him a grass skirt so he was very anxious to show us what Jeanette Davis had taught him about doing the Hula Hula. Then Marilyn Stonewall and Helen Cath- elyn, both from Dingly, showed us how to Charleston. They did very well considering their long tight skirts. It seems that Bobby Ted Johnson skipped showers one day. But don't worry, he made up for it by having Sharon Thomas give him a bath right on the stage. CNever fear! Never fear! His clothes stayed onlj VV e had all kinds of people with us that night. Yes, even a famous manicurist, Rus- sell Chasteen. He gave a demonstration for us, but due to some delay, his utensils did not arrive on time. He was forced to bor- row some. It seems that nobody could find just what he wanted so he had to take what he could get, which was: a pan of water, 1 chisel, 1 hedge clipper, 1 pair of rusty shears, 1 file, and nail polish. Some of the freshmen were talented at the most unordinary things. For instance, Roland Fisher was an expert on finding lost persons. He didn't do so well that night, however, for he didn't seem to be able to find Horatio. lVe'll have to admit though, that he called loudly enough. Horatio must have stayed home and listened to Arthur Godfrey on the radio. ' It seems even the freshmen still enjoy kids' games. Ruth Ann DeFreezer and Ken- neth Riggs did a little teeter-tottering for us. Oh yes! They were great singers too. They could even sing Come Josephine in My Flying Machine while they were go- ing up in the air on their home-made teeter- totter. There seems to be an acrobat in every show. Charles Young was a great jumper. He jumped off a board 100 feet in the air blindfolded. He could even touch the sky when he reached high. VVe even had a trained seal on out show Lois Sipes, by naine. She balanced a ball on her nose, after great practice, of course. 1 VV e also had some great singers on our show, but it seems they couldn't sing with- out sitting on each other's lap. Naturally we all wanted them to sing so that's just what Camille McCune and Vlfayne Smith did. First, Camille sat on YVayne's lap and sang 'Tm in Love Again. Then W'ayne.sat on Camille's lap and sang I Get Ideas. The youngest of our talented people was Larry Nutter. He was dressed up like a baby and acted like one too. He sat on a small can and put on his baby bonnet while he sang, Put on Your Old Grey Bonnet. Our little baby could balance himself on the can with his feet off the floor. Pretty good considering the age. . Marlene Driessens was a talented lover. She tried to convince Roland Fisher that he should leave his present girl friend and go with her. Roland was a little hard to con- vince and Verleigh Cunningham came to his rescue. A great musician was present with her monkey. She was Martha Nutter who play- ed the tuba. The monkey's name was Ken- neth Riggs. The audience enjoyed them so much that we asked them to go out into the audience and play. Since each of the boys had on a bathing suit Linder his clothes, we thought it would be nice to have a Bathing Beauty Contest. The audience were the judges. lVe had two boys who were so good we decided to call it a tie between VVayne Smith and Roland Fisher. Their award was to direct the fresh- men in singing School Days? Thus ended our Radio-Television show and we would like to thank all the freshmen for being such good sports. SENIOR P AY CAST Row One: Mary Sullivan, Phil Hand.

Each year all of the girls who took physical education were automatically made members of the G.A.A. Throughout the previous years, a private initiation has been given the girls from the sophomore class, who are first becoming members, mainly to get them acquainted with the rest of the members. Each year new officers are elected. The officers of 1951-52 were: President, Lor- raine Beyn, Vice-President, Mary johnson, Secretary and Treasurer, Marie Giltnerg Sponsor, Harriet-Ann Kuczera. In order to raise money to help send two girls to G.A.A. camp at Lake Blooming- ton, Illinois, and to have money for G.A.A. parties, the girls sponsored a dance on Oc- tober 26, music by Chuck Harney. A bake sale was also sponsored by the girls. During the year, swimming and bowling parties were part of the G.A.A. activities. A play day was given at VValnut High School for those who wanted to attend. Girls' bas- ketball, volleyball and badminton were some of the games the girls played. The girls partook in many activities such as: bicycling, bowling, coasting, golf, horse back riding, skating, skiing, swimming, tennis, and walking to gain points. Each of these points were earned by the members on their own time. Other activities such as stunts were witnessed by the girls and the sponsor in order to gain points. The points gained by these various activities helped each girl earn the award she was working for at the beginning of the school year. The girls who attended G.A.A. Camp last summer were Mary E. johnson and Shir- ley Sipes. This year's campers will be Lor- raine Beyn and Marie Giltner.
