FURRY Advisor THE I947 CAPITOLINE Sponsored By THE SENIOR CLASS of SPRINGFIELD HIGH SCHOOL Springfield, Illinois if DEDICATION When choosing a theme for the I947 Capitoline, the staff was very much attracted by the field of radio because of its great contribution to the education of our people. True, all radio programs are not educational, but since the development of this remarkable instrument, a great many people have had the opportunity to hear drama, fine music and broadcasts of interna- tional importance. ln the future, television promises to play an important part in the radio fieldg hence, another aid to education. So to all workers- past, present, and future--in the field of radio, we of the '47 Capitoline staff dedicate our publication. Q 00 FOREWORD In preparing your l947 Capitoline, we of the staff have endeavored to present to you, the students of Springfield High School, a yearbook that will always bring back pleasant memories.' lf, when you glance through the pages, you see a picture that brings you happiness in remembering a certain football game, a special club meeting, or an almost forgotten friend, we shall then feel that we have accomplished our objective. 00:9 if STPsTI0N1f'5H S RMP 'THE N21 CRPITOLI DIE PRESENTING 'THE SENIOR CLASS FACULTY .... .STUDENTS . . ..

Varied problems of the students at S. H. S. are solved by our assistant principals iwho are in charge of discipline during Mr. Davis's leave of absencel and deans. lt is the duty. of these advisers to help students map out their programs and see that each one is making required credits for graduation, to maintain a quiet study hall, to make announcements and to help place certain students in outside work. Students remain in the same study hall all tour years, and thus their study counselor can get acquainted with them by frequent contact. OUT IN 34 Nineteen ENGLISH Miss Ellen Rourke's Public Speaking class debates current topic before student and radio audience The S. H. S. English department is one of the de- partments that teaches every single student in this school. As American educators believe, a person must have a thorough background of English. He should know how to express himself, both in writing and in speech, he should have a reading skill to main- tain his knowledge of current problems. The basic idea of this department is that logic, insight, and imagination are most essential. In i946-47 two changes in the English depart- ment were significant. The Senator, our school paper, was put out by the newly organized Journal- ism class and editing group, both advised by Miss Margaret Wilson. The senior class play was directed by two coaches paid from the proceeds of the play. Formerly the Drama teacher added a class play to her already strenuous program. The English curriculum this year was in accord- ance with our country's stress on inter-cultural rela- tions, books with information on Latin America, Japan, China, Spain, and more extensive world situa- tions lparticularly used in senior coursesi were read and discussed. Techniques of radio and movie writ- ing were also learned, as was an intelligent selection of news from the daily paper. A freshman at S.H.S. starts out with 91 composi- tion, and learns the rudiments of spelling, punctua- tion, and sentence structure, while in 92, he gets a general course of literature. A sophomore studies newspapers, radio, and movie, the three fields of communication, in the later semester American Lit- erature is introduced. Learning to read, summarize, and adapt the past to today is the junior's work. He sees the relation of heritage to his relations with other human beings, his studies consist of English 4, and English 5 or English 7. The senior comes into a mature range of thinking when he takes English l3, which is required for college preparatory courses. Elective courses given seniors are Drama, Public Speaking, and Journalism. Under Miss Elizabeth Graham's direction, a capable English staff has organized and rounded out a course of study rich in modern and classical, practical and imaginative writing, speaking and reading, Elizabeth Graham Head of English Department, Uni- versity of Illinois, A.B., Middle- bury College, M.A., Bread Loaf School of English.

H. S. is required to take one year of World History and one year of American history to graduate. World History starts with the cave-man and re- veals the story of the human race's struggle against tyranny, including the study of such interesting peoples as the Egyptians, the Romans, and people of the Middle Ages. American history is interesting, of course, for it is about our own country-develop- ment of the thirteen colonies, Revolution- ary War, Civil War,-and leads up to the present wars of society in which America has been engaged. It is no wonder that these courses are required for students to graduate. Many become so interested in this field that additional subjects, such as World Problems, economics, civics, and geography are offered. Our history department, under the direc- tion of Miss Louise Welch,,places value on facts and dates only when they give stu- dents a clearer insight into the growth of civilization. By reasoning things from ex- amples of the past, we can understand much about the present and the future. ln nearly all S. H. S. history classes, one day is spent each week on Current Events to keep posted on happenings all over the world, and to increase the understanding so badly needed by all nations. Emphasis on this world knowledge is needed in all high schools, and S. H. S. is made a more up-to- date school because of this training. Stu- dents who have derived information from these courses go into the world as well- informed citizens, ready to take an intelli- gent part in the government of the United States and the reconstruction of other coun- tries. Our capable history department is to be commended for its work. Students make good use of visual aids in Geography Class Twenty-th ree MATHEMATICS Sadie Clapper Chairman, National Honor Society Committeeg Univer- sity of Iowa, A.B.: Univer- sity of Illinois, M.A.: Uni- versity of Colorado, Colum- bia University. Beulah B. Barrick University of Illinois, M.A. Merle Ruth Parker Greenville College, A.B 3 B.S., The S. H. S. mathematics department is a well-developed one, for this subject is an essential part ot such courses as en- gineering, chemistry, architecture, sur- veying, and many others. Instructors are well-qualified, and are interested in the progress of students in their classes. Students taking college preparatory courses are required to take one year ot algebra and one year ot plane geometry. Juniors and seniors can major in math by taking another year, consisting of semes- ter courses of advanced algebra and solid geometry. Other intriguing subjects ot- fered are college algebra and trigonom- etry. Projects displayed in the mathematics case always attract attention, for they represent work in all sections of the de- partment from freshman algebra to field projects in trigonometry by seniors. These projects emphasize the practical applications of mathematics, which are continually stressed by the instructors. ., K-, ..,...,-.....,.,...-.,...,. ., ..... exits-AE, : , ff - -. k Y ts it X -Qs , ,gs as it I K- Lorene Campbell Iowa State Teachers' Col- lege, B,A.g State University of Iowa, M.A.g University of Colorado. . fl-.fi'l:il' Guy Krummel Lieutenant, U.S. Navy, Black- burn Collegeq University of Illinois, B.S., M.S.

S. be- cause language bonds between countries promote better understanding in interna- tional relationships. Also, a knowledge of several languages is a sign of culture. Latin is essential for a better under- standing ot English, and, it taken first, it makes the acquiring of other languages much easier. With the aid ot Miss Blatt, Miss Steinmiller, Miss McPhillimey, and Miss lhlenteldt, students learn grammar, Caesar, Cicero and Virgil. Miss Mathews encourages her French classes to give plays, to speak and sing in French at the same time that they are learning grammar. Miss Ronca enlightens her students on the customs of South American people, and enlivens class discussion with ma- terial not in Spanish textbooks. Empha- sis is on reading, writing, and speaking ability of Spanish.

For the past few years, science has played an essential part in affairs of the world. Scientists have developed such items as penicillin, sulfa drug, atabrine, plastic, and, most important of all, the atomic bomb. Thus, this can be rightly termed the Scien- tific Era.. It is no wonder that the oppor- tunities for scientists are increasingg a prac- tical person of scientific aspirations can go into an up-and-coming field such as this, and find a great future ahead of him. At S. H. S. are offered a variety of sci-- ences-chemistry, physics, botany, zoology, biology, physiology, agriculture, and gen- eral science. A student needs for these courses a good memory, tenacity, imagina- tion, and a practical application of all three, Twenty-six COMMERCIAL .

The commercial department is not only for students who wish to become bookkeep- ers, typists, and stenographers, but it offers subjects ot practical application tor every student. An author should know how to type, a reporter should be able to take notes in shorthand, a businessman should have some idea of bookkeeping-these are a few Freeman C.

Mr. Goodwin's salesmanship class is invaluable to many students. These high school courses are a great opportunity, Twenty-seven FINE AND HOUSEHOLD ARTS I' eff' ' .

A nine week course of instruction in automobile safety is now required of all S. H. S. students in general shop. These classes, under the instruction of Mr. La Fauce, learn motor-vehicle laws of Illinois and their applications with consideration for the other person's rights, and they study the parts of a car.

Twenty-nine MUSIC Students who wish to take a special type ot music enroll in the band directed by Mr. Patrick, the orchestra directed by Mr. Johns, or in the A Cappella Choir under Miss Hau- sen's management. For those who are not in these activities at S. H. S., there is a required course of chorus to be taken in the freshman and sophomore years. Mr. Benedict, director ot the chorus groups, uses varied selections Roger J. Benedict Lawrence College, B.M.3 Uni- ' i from the classic and popular songs to help the students appreciate and understand music. Miss Hausen, besides directing the S. H. S. choirs, has a harmony class tor people interested in writing, reading, and singing music, This is about the theory ont music. S. H.

Anything said about boys' physical edu- cation would be superfluous. Springfield's football, basketball, track, tennis, and golf teams speak for themselves. The boys not in any of these activities get a rigorous workout in basketball, tumbling, and exer- cises in the boys' gym under the watchful eyes of Peterman, Roellig, and McQueen. And, what about the girls? Miss Mather conducts classes for all except those who are physically unfit for gym workouts. The girls have exercises, kick-ball, volley-ball, dancing, and tumbling. The semester tour- naments in kick-ball and volley-ball are always anticipated by girls especially inter- ested in sports. This year, the girls were allowed to compete in an inter-school golf and tennis ladder tournament which made their sports as worthwhile as the boys ac- tivities. Thirty-one OFFICE PERSONNEL Margaret Davis Corresponding Secretary Edna Atkins Secretary STUDENT OFFICE The student office has personal contact with almost every student at S. H. S. This staff keeps mischievous students in line, and settles problems that would stump Dorothy Dix and Dr. l. Q. Miss Robb, attendance clerk, faithfully records school attendance and determines validity of excuses by check- ing with parents. Miss Aurelius, room 2's efficient clerk, never has an idle moment. The student office is similar to a bus depot: students buy tickets, ask information of Miss Aurelius, use the telephones between classes, and look for lost articles. Frances Robb Attendance Clerk Lois Aurelius Clerk MAIN OFFICE ln the main office are two gracious and helpful secretaries, Miss Margaret Davis and Miss Edna Atkins. Miss Davis, our corresponding secretary, carries on all sf H. S. correspondence matters, maintains the school calendar of important events, from senior prom to freshman tests, and is in charge of our building requisition when a certain group wish to use S. H. S.'s audi- torium for a lecture or some similar pure pose. Recording the grades and class rank of each student, and sending grade tran- scripts to colleges is Miss Atkins' iobg in fact she keeps tabs on the entire scholastic record of S. H. S. She also takes care of rental books. Thirty-two STUDENT SERVICE Dorothy . Southwick, R.N. Ma 9ue l'e L- Nurse Zimmermann ln our up-to-date library, a student can find anything from a biography for history to a volume of poems by Vachel Lindsay. Miss Zimmerman, jovial librarian, is always willing to help students locate material they need in assignments. The library is a grand place in which to studyg it is a spacious place, has eye-pleas- ing colors, and presents a cosy atmosphere. The tables provide ample space for research work. Especially planned for students who have their homework done, the browsing section is Miss Zimmerman's brain-child. Miss Southwick, S. H.

In her spare time, our nurse examines students who do Normal, B. of E.: Univ. of Illinois, B.S. in L.S.g Jr. Les Bas Adviser not seem well, gives eye tests, and aids in giving T.B. tests. Miss Southwick is symf- pathetic and understanding, and we at S. H. S. are glad she is here. For those who are unable to go home for lunch or to bring lunches to school, the S. H. S. cafeteria is a handy institution. The balanced meals of meat, vegetables, and potatoes which are served prevent stu- dents from buying too many starches or sugar products, and give them the essen- tials that high school people need for growth. The delicious desserts made by cafeteria cooks are especially to be com- mended, as are the fresh-looking salads. With the help of federal and state funds, meals have been served at a very low cost to students. Thirty-three FACULTY AUTOGRAPHS Th yf CLASS OF JANUARY 1947 OFFICERS President .........

J im Nolan Secretary ...... ...... J erry Byers Treasurer . . . .... Stuart Robinson The Junior class can look back with pride at this year's activities. Rising from ob- scurity, the Juniors have played a great part in the activities of the school. Not only have they made a valuable addition to the school's athletics, management of school clubs, and student government, but they have also contributed to the morale of the students by presenting an original assembly. The student body showed its enthusiasm for the Junior class when a great number attended a dance, the Junior Gyp, spon- sored by the Juniors. These activities have given the class members valuable experience in learning to handle the responsibilities that will be thrust upon them in their Senior year, as well as those that manhood and womanhood will bring. Now the Juniors are turning toward the future, determined to do a better job. They know that in their Senior year they will take over the reins of the student government and set an example for the rest of the school. All these students are looking forward to their Senior year wondering what new ideas they can contribute for the benefit of the school, knowing they cannot fail. So, here's to the Juniors! We know that this eager group will have a happy and suc- cessful Senior year.

S. last September, their first thought was, How shall we ever get used to this. But within two weeks they had fallen into line with the rest of the students and had begun taking their part in the school ac- tivities. At football and basketball games they made their Yea, team well heard. At assemblies they adjusted themselves as part of the attentive audience. At many social activities, also, Freshmen faces appeared. As the year progressed, glimpses were caught of the future athletic stars, scholas- tic leaders, and a cappella, band, and or- chestra members. Now as they enter their second year, these Freshmen are making plans to take their places inthe school clubs, varsity athletics, musical organizations, and all other fields of opportunity open to the students of S. H. S. Seven ty-four Bob Davidson, Dean Davison, Bonnie Delay, Beverly DeRose. Patricia Disher, Bill Disque, Kaye Dopp, Jack Duffy. Donna Duncan, Edwin Dunlap, Ed- ward Edstrom, Jacqueline Ehlert.

Mr. Robert Furry Eighty-three REGARDLESS OF LATE START SENIOR CAPITOLINE Yes, the year l946-47 is all over now! lt's time to read the l947 Capitoline and relive the memories of this fun-packed year at S. H. S. For those who are freshmen at S. H. S., the Capitoline is an introduction to high school life, but it is the Senior class's farewell medium. Students lfrom freshman to seniorl, members of the fac- ulty and their departments, sports, and club activities have been put into written, artis- tic, and photographic form. In these pages we have tried to put as much history of this year as possible. Despite the fact that the l946 Capitoline was not out until March, the i947 Capito- line staff buckled down to work, used some elbow grease, and got our prodigy off to a rousing start. An assembly entitled The Inner-Capitoline or Open the Book, Robert, which was a takeoff on the radio theme of the book, opened our brief campaign. Stu- dents upheld the staff, and subscribed en- thusiastically for their Capitolines. This campaign in March was the first time S. H. S. students had heard of the l947 Capito- Iine, although the staff had been planning it since the beginning of the school year. PROOF READING COPY A STANDING: Marijane Stryker, Barbara Bunn, Mary Elkin, Arthur Wexler. SEATED: Ruth Woodruff, Betty Fink. Eighty-four CAPITOLINE STAFF COMES THROUGH After the editorial staff had devised a radio theme for the yearbook, they cooper- ated with the art staff to carry out this theme in writing copy and art work. The freshman, sophomore, and junior photo- graph editors measured and pasted, the senior editor and sports editor wrote and pasted. Of course, the business managers and the publicity editor took charge of the subscription campaign, and maneuvered the financial end of the deal. The snapshot editor's work was never done, for she had her camera busy all year around. Needless to say, our understanding adviser, Mr. Furry, was busiest of all.f Following the precedent of last year, our Capitoline staff has a girl for its editor-in- chief-and nearly all girls on the staff. We have worked hard to overcome the late startg we are certain that we have gained experi- ence in this new work, which was quite dif- ferent from that we did on Junior Capitoline staff. lncidentally, the Juniors are the ones to thank for S. H. S.'s attractive Student Di- rectories, and for their help in giving out the l946 Capitolines. We on this staff hope you like this book, and that it will always be a link between you and our Alma Mater, Springfield High School. lf, in the years to come, it brings back vivid memories, then our efforts have indeed been worth-while.

Miss lrene Mason Miss Gieseking President Aleda Keech has directed the Philos through a most successful year. Start- ing out last fall with a lively pledge group, the Philos dropped the word Literaryi' from their name since the club has been devoted mainly to activities of a social nature. To become a Philo, a girl must meet the scholastic requirements set by the school, and express her desire to become a member. FORMAL HUGE SUCCESS These active girls met every other Tuesday to promote the study and discussion of lit- erary, scientific, political and social topics. At Christmas the Philos gave a special tea for their mothers. At Easter-time they entertained the Les Bas with a charming program having the Gay Nineties for its theme. Being a very charitable group, the Philos furnished a basket at Christmas for the Family Welfare. They also made a dona- tion to the Red Cross, Again this year the Philos made a huge success of their annual Valentine Dance in February. On graduation night a great number of the S.l'l.S. student body tripped the light fantastic at the Alumnae formal dance. This dance was eagerly looked for- ward to all year. Miss Irene Mason and Miss Gieseking were the Philo advisers this year. They gave much individual time and effort toward making a success of this club, and they ac- complished just that, as any Philo will tell you.

Miss Neblick - Miss Zimmermann JUNIOR LES BAS BLEUS Because of the great number of girls who ex- pressed the desire to join Les Bas Bleus, one of the most popular girls' clubs at S.H.S., it was neces- sary to organize the Junior Les Bas Bleus. To be- come a Junior Les Bas, a girl must be a Sophomore in standing and have a grade average of at least 3.5. Mid-Year Sophomores are allowed to join in January, however, they are not pledged until the following September. This year's group of Juniors has had a.very suc- cessful season. The girls Planned some interesting and educational programs which includeda mothers' tea and a style show. Another outstanding program presented by the girls was the George Washington party at which the Senior Les Bas were guests. At Christmas the Juniors divided into small groups and went carolling. ln cooperation with the Senior group, the girls helped to stage two of the most successful dances of the school yearg the Christmas formal 'Holly Hop and the annual Maypole Dance. With Miss Neblick and Miss Zimmermann as advisers, the Junior Les Bas have had many help- ful experiences, and we may be certain that they will be valuable members of the Senior Les Bas next year.

Outstanding programs for the past year were the Mother's Tea style show and entertainment of Philos and Junior Les Bas.

One of their most outstanding pro- grams, which has always been enjoyed by students for its originality and entertainment, was the Del- phic Amateur show.

This past year the Delphics decided to run their club on the basis of a school service club rather than on the literary basis, and thus their social ac- tivities were increased.

Mr. Armitage School as a Whole The number of Wranglers was increased to lO8 this year, but such a large group is unnecessary for obtaining the needed co-operationg therefore, the club has limited its membership to 33 new mem- bers a year. The Wranglers, being a charitable group, gave twenty dollars to the March of Dimes this year. This money was obtained from coke sales at bas- ketball games. A book was given to the school library every month. These books are quite varied in their scope, and range from sports to drama.

Not without social activities, the Wranglers started club activity off last fall with their annual bon fire and football rally. The Barn Dance, held April l8, was highly successful as is shown by the 263 attendance record. The annual Father and Son banquet with the annual basketball dinner was held April l8.

Any student in his third year is eligi- ble for membership in the Junior Capitoline if he is passing in all subjects and receives a recommendation from a Senior Staff mem- ber. Regular attendance at the weekly meet- ings is stressed. At their meetings the Juniors are given a chance to learn about the different jobs of the Senior members. ln aiding with the Capitoline campaign they learn by actual experience. These students also sell Direc- tory advertisements and Capitoline acknowl- edgements. si-is ,X 4 Y gs, J? . . , Q, Q c ,, Q' e5 Q f- 5- Q' go 7260 I A 22- 2 HTTN This year the students of S.H.S. have the Junior Capitoline Staff to thank for the Student Directory which is usually done by a Senior Staff.

STUDENT COU NCI L A reform movement was started last fall when the Student Council officers, chosen the previous year, announced the popular election policy of choosing members. lf a student was interested in becoming a mem- ber, it was necessary for him to present a petition with twenty-five signatures of fel- low classmates. From the list of petitions, the Student Council was chosen by student election. Two very beneficial acts were the regula- tions passed by the Council this year. Be- fore a student was allowed to make an an- nouncement in assembly, he was required to receive coaching in talking over the microphone from Miss Ellen Rourke. The new dance regulations, passed in April, were enthusiastically received by the student .. George Daigh . . Sally Donelan . . Lucille Luers . . . Miss Bundy body. Astudent could takeian out-of-school guest to a school dance, providing he had first gotten permission from the student office and had agreed to be responsible for the guest's behavior. With Miss Bundy as their adviser, the members of this group were active in the inter-school council, the Jr. Red Cross cam- paign and the annual Tuberculosis Associa- tion drive. lt was the S.H.S. Student Coun- cil that decorated one of the Christmas trees in front of the Court House last December. Whenever there were concerts, P.T.A. meet- ings, commencements or other school af- fairs in the auditorium, the ushers were members of the Council. Not lacking in social activities, this group sponsored two very successful dances-The Depression Daze and The Spring Fling. 1 Ninety-five CAFETERIA COUNCIL SUPPLIE OFFICERS First Semester President ............

From this year's January and June classes, 30 girls and l4 boys may be seen wearing the torch, symbolic of the National Honor Society. Not more than fifteen per cent of the class can become members of the or- ganization and those chosen must have a 4.66 average in one major subject and must have maintained a B average throughout high school. This year the National Honor Society of- fered ten scholarships of S300 each, to be awarded about the country by a competitive examination. Nine members of the S. H. S. Honor Society took the examination and Charles Gibson, one of the participants, re- ceived honorable mention for having one of the high scores.

Without a student newsheet for two years, Mr. Davis decided to remedy this situation if students were willing to give the time to a publication of this kind I the spring of '46 a petition was started to be signed by all those interested in working on such a project. Also, a vote revealed that over ninety per cent of the student body would subscribe to a school paper The beginning of this year found S H S with Miss Margaret Wilson as a capable ad viser and a newly formed journalism class ready to take on the job of publishing a paper. After enough subscriptions were obtained to cover costs, a contest was held to name the student paper--hence THE SENATOR. By changing the editorship of each paper all students gained the experience of being the chief It was no easy job-writing editorials or features, getting the news and making it all fit on the dummy. Also the new semester brought a new staff but the strong spirit remained. Our efforts were rewarded, though as Quill and Scroll, a national honorary jour nalistic society, accepted THE SENATOR and made several of the staff members It is the hope of old staffs that the coming school year will bring forth a group who will enjoy working on the paper as much as their predecessors did and will make THE SEN ATOR bigger and better than ever One Hundred F.F.A.

S. chapter sent judging teams to the state convention where they won many awards. Delegates were also sent to the national convention held in Kansas City last September. Other events of this year included a public speaking contest, judg- ing contests and an essay contest.

Sports had their place with the F.F.A. as shown by their fine softball team. By enrolling in Vocational Agriculture a boy is eligible for membership in the F.F.A. Mr. Armstrong, the adviser, is to be com- mended for the fine job of organizing the S. H. S. chapter and making it such an out- standing success. Students who emerge from this class are quite ready to enter the agricultural world. Their training has prepared them and over- come many problems that may arise. Much credit is due to these future farmers who will help keep America the strong, prosper- ous and beautiful country it is.

Coming to S.H.S. in the fall of 1946 after three years in the service, Mr. Johns joined the music department, and started the Springfield High School Symphony Orchestra right into the swing of things. Mr. Johns has encouraged student leader- ship in the orchestra, his purpose being to promote the highest possible musical perfection and under- standing among the members of the orchestra. Outstanding programs of the year were the De- cember concert in S.H.S. auditorium, a program at the Orpheum Theater on March Zi, the April concert in Millikin University, an assembly on May ll, and the Spring Concert, also in May. ' Nor was the orchestra without its social activi- ties, of which the most enjoyable were a picnic at Washington Park in October and a wiener roast in May. Preparatory Orchestra, held fifth period, is for those students not yet ready to go into Advanced Orchestra. An orchestra such as ours is truly an essential part of any high school, for good music is always appreciated by S.H.S. students.

Under the direction of Miss Margaret Hausen, these students in- terested in vocal music have participated in many outstanding programs. The most well known and publicized group from the department is the A Cappella Choir. The members of this organization are students who have shown their ability in other choirs or have come on the high recommendation of their previous director. In this group, the members strive toward polished work, continual development and improvement in tone, technique in handling the voice, and the building of a large reper- toire of fine choral works. Among the programs given by the Choir this year were two formal concerts, one given each semester. Although a cappella music is usually of the sacred type, the S.H.S. Choir also presented a group of secu- One Hundred Six ECULAR AND SACRED NUMBERS A CAPPELLA CHOIR First Row: Dorothy Bryson, Julia Sutton, Margaret Wagner, Rose Bietsch, Martha Bay, Jessie Jones, Roberta Mills, Anne Williams, Joyce Donner.

A highlight of the first semester was the impressive Christmas program, given twice to accommodate the large audiences. The Choir also enjoyed presenting a stu- dent assembly on May lstg a thirty-minute sacred concert at the Centennial Building for a Youth for Christ Rallyg and another thirty-minute concert for the Lion's Club State Convention, which was attended by some twenty-two hundred people from over the state. An event which every choir member eagerly looked forward to all year was the Big i2 Music Festival, held in Decatur, Illinois. Three large buses were chartered for the group. Each member was greatly inspired by singing with such a huge choir, under the baton of Mr, Olaf Christiansen, director of the St. Olaf Choir. lt may be safely said that every student who received his S or gold star for par- ticipating in every performance, has had a busy but enjoyable year as a member of the a cappella Choir.

S. have the opportunity to participate in the musi- cal activities ot the school. The number of students interested in the A Cappella Choir greatly exceeds the number who can be accepted, but Miss Hausen has made it possible for Freshmen and Sophomores in- terested in choral work to gain experience in the Junior Choir, a group which she or- ganized in the spring of 1946. The members of the Junior Choir are all intensely interested in singing and they work very hard to develop enough skill so that they may become members of the more ad- vanced A Cappella Choir. The student body ot S. H. S. was given an opportunity to see the good work done by this group when the Junior Choir appeared on each of the two formal concerts given by the vocal department this year.

This is the first year of the Girls' Choir's existence and it promises to be a very versatile organization. Composed of mostly Freshmen and Soph- omores, this group of ambitious girls have spent their time learning to do three and four part work, and acquiring skill in breath- ing, diction and other techniques needed for excellent singing. Although these girls belong to the choir mainly because they get so much pleasure from singing, they also try to develop enough skill to become members of the A Cappella Choir. The Girls' Choir, the third choir to be organized at S. H. S. in the last two years, made their Public appearances on each of the two formal concerts given by the vocal department this year.

Members ot the Octet have had experi- ence in other choirs preceding their selec- tion for this ensemble. They must be able to carry their own part alone, be excellent readers and possess personality. The Octet builds quite an extensive and varied reper- toire for their many appearances. Among the many places the Octet sang this season are the Governor's Mansion tor the tea, given in honor of the president of the National Educational Assn.g two formal concerts at S.H.S.g the Community Chest dinner, Convention of Nurses of lllinoisg and the Rotary and Lions Clubs. Not only did the Octet members enter- tain this year, but they themselves were also entertained. On May 16 the group traveled to St. Louis to hear the Metropol- itan Opera Company present Boris Godou- now. Such well known and popular oper- atic stars as Rise Stevens and Ezio Pinza had starring roles. When the members ot the Octet were presented with the special Octet pins at the close of the year, one may be certain they well deserved them.

S. H. S. won the city championship again, and was third in the Big Twelve, losing one game by one point. This fine record is a tribute to Coach Roellig's strategic genius and his skill in handling the boys. The name of Springfield is again one to be feared throughout the state. McQUEEN Little could be accomplished in football without a line. Clyde McQueen, the Sena- tor line coach, was the man who developed the defence of the team to such a great state. He is also the coach of the great Springfield track team that already has won the city, the Big Twelve, and district cham- pionships and which is going on to the state meet. PETEFISH The Freshmen football and track teams are coached by Charlie Petefish. His job is to condition them for the three years of varsity work to come. Although the foot- ball season was not very successful, with the team winning one and losing four, Pete can be proud of his job. Several of the boys who could have made the season a suc- cessful one for the freshmen were on the varsity squad. The freshmen track men were more successful, however. They won two meets including the Lincoln Freshman- Sophomore contest. One of the largest squads in recent years was out. SANDERS Jesse Sanders is the money-bags of the Springfield athletic department. Besides this, he is the general manager and has charge of the ticket sales, handling of the crowds, etc. He orders the team's equip- ment, makes sure the injured get proper treatment and cares for the athletic field. Altogether he is a very busy man-and one of the main factors in the well being of the teams.

E. ST. LOUIS-SEPT. I3 A tough East St. Louis team powerhoused a 27-14 win over S. H. S. in the first game of the season on Sept. 13. The St. Louis boys depended on two fine backs, while the Senators used their passing at-- tack to advantage. Gibbs tossed a 21 yard pass to Wiesenmeyer and again 19 yards to Kurrus for Springfieid's lone scores. FEITSHANS-SEPT. 20 Jumbles made the Feitshans game steam on Sep- tember 20 when S. H. S. beat the Flyers 32-18. ln the first few minutes of the game, Feitshans fum- bled twice deep in their own territory with Kurrus then Livingstone recovering. Toward the end of the first quarter, Gorham interrupted a pass and gal- loped 65 yards for 6 points. In the second quarter the Flyers got up steam enough to put one across but a few minutes later Glisson grabbed a fumble to set up the next Senator score to make it 26-6 at the half. The second half consisted of an exchange of punts with the Flyers scoring twice and S. H. S. once on some fine running and passing. CATHEDRAL-SEPT. 26 S. H. S. scored 20 points in the first half of the Sept. 26 Cathedral battle to tie up the game. Gibbs scored first after a Senator march of 42 yards. Bramlet then scored from the 16 and Kurrus from the 10. ln the second half, S. H. S. threatened sev- eral times, but the final score was 20-O, Springfield. LANPHIER-OCT. 4 S. H. S. gridders won their second straight city championship on October 4 with a 34-6 win over Lanphier. They had a tough time getting startedg The Lions advanced to the two yard stripe in the first quarter and scored in the second. That got the Senators going, however, and Gibbs and Bramlet scored to make the half-time score 13-6. Early in the third quarter Gibbs intercepted a pass and made two passes for a score. Gorham hit pay dirt in the fourth, and S. H. S. recovered a Lion fumble for the last score. DECATU R-OCT. I I Springfield's traditional enemy, Decatur, was the next victim of the hard-driving Senators, by the score of 27-19. On the first play of the game, White made 52 yards, and on the next went over from the three. Gorham scored in the second after Cole blocked a Big Red punt. Again Gorham scored on a forty yard pass play from Gibbs. The last Senator goal came on two Gibbs runs that went for 54 yards. One Hundred Twenty FOOTBALL PEORIA CENTRAL S. H. S. lost its first Big Twelve game by one point to Peoria Central, 7-6. The game was deuced until a last period Senator drive. The score was 6-O with two minutes to go when Peoria rolled down the field to a goal. The point was made on a trick play, and time ran out on the Senators when a drive was stopped on the 30 yard line. BLOOMINGTON A big first half enabled Springfield to defeat Bloomington by the score of 21-12. Gibbs returned the first Raider punt 7O yards to pay dirt. Berning flashed around left end for 5 yards and 6 points. Gorham caught a Gibbs pass for 21 yards and our final goal. Wiesenmeyer converted all three times and the score stood at 21-O at the half. Blooming- ton demonstrated its power and stock of trick plays in the second half, making two touchdowns for a final score of 21-12. LINCOLN-NOV. 1 Springfield crushed its next victim, Lincoln, by the lopsided score of 27-O. The first score came from a 21 yard pass from Gibbs to Wiesenmeyer. The next from a 63 yard dash through the entire Lincoln eleven. Gorham again scored to make it 20-O at the half. In the third quarter, Gibbs again con- nected to Wiesenmeyer for the last score. The sec- ond team worked the ball to the one in the last canto, but Lincoln held. URBANA-Nov. s S. H. S. won third place in the Big Twelve by beat- ing Urbana 26-14 in the final game of the season. The Tigers scored first, before the Senators laid hands on the ball. Gibbs and Gorham brought the ball right back to tie the game. Farley recovered a fum- ble and Gibbs again scored. Urbana made another score, which was offset by Berning in the final guar- ter. Varsity Practice One Hundred Twenty-one BASKETBALL This year Mark Peterman, the dean of bas- ketball coaches, concluded the most success- ful basketball season in twelve years. His team won twenty-two games against only eight losses. lt tied for the city championship, won third in the Big Twelve, beat its traditional enemy, Decatur, for the first time since l94l in two out of three games, and climaxed the season with a trip to Champaign as one of the sixteen best teams in the state. This success is especially gratifying since this is Mr. Peterman's last year as basketball coach at SHS. One of his old players, Herb Sheffler, a member of his great i935 state championship team, will take over these duties. We wish Herb luck, and congratulate Mr. Peterman on his long and honorable record of having gone twelve times to the state meet at Mark Peterman Champaign and having won twice. This year SHS had a fast-moving, hard- hitting team. Two of them, Kurrus at center and Gibbs playing forward, made the all-city team, and won honorable mention at the state meet. Kurrus, a great rebounder, led the city scoring with an average of l6.7 points a game. Gibbs did some beautiful floor work, and was great at working the ball under the basket. Gorham, although out part of the season, played great ball for the Senators. Glisson, the pivot man, was the most dependable man Peter- man had on defense. Johnny Bunn was always able to fool the other guy when he had the ball. Greeley also was the Solon rebounder who got the team out of some tight situations. Shelton was the boy who so ably took Kurrus's place, he will probably play cen- ter next year. Instructions for Bunn One Hundred Twenty-two 1946-1947 BASKETBALL SQUAD ' s.

One H undred Twen 'ry-th ree f-or ,- fx K. . ,fr e B ' -.15 Es, 'E nm if BASKETBALL In the first game of a great basketball season the Routt Rockets, who had already won five straight, beat a disorganized Sena- tor squad 42-34. The game was close all the way until the final few minutes. An- other experienced team, Clinton, took the next one 42-36. In the first game of the city series, S. H. S. took Lanphier 53-47. The Senators lead all the way except for a few moments around the half. Macomb proved to be an easy victim as they fell 43-35. A highly touted U. High five pro- vided good practice for the S. H. S. boys who beat them by the score of 46-25. A few days later, Peterman's boys made it four straight by slaughtering Staunton 57- 33. Cathedral took the second game of the city series 58-56 in a heartbreaker. Al- though they led through most of the game, S. H. S. had a good lead in the last few minutes, only to see the game tied and sent into an overtime. They scored and we tied it up again. Again they scored and we couldn't make it. Eight of their men fouled out, figuring that a foul shot was cheaper than a basket. A hot Urbana squad took a 46-3l tussle in the first Big Twelve game. The Sena- tors came back to defeat a weak Lincoln lineup 49-40. The Senators again dropped U. High by the score of 51-32, this time on their court. Then came a defeat by Bloom- Ready For a Shot One H undred Twenty-four -r --- BASKETBALL Senators Beat Decatur to Win the Sectional ington 44-33. The Blades then started on a six game winning streak. On the S. H. S. court they beat Vandalia 35-27. The city championship was tied by the defeat of Feitshans 43-26. The Senators then beat Decatur on the Lanphier court for the first time since 1941. At one time the Reds were leading 13-3. The score at the half was 13-9. Stopping the Reds completely, the Peterman boys took over and powered their way to a 31-28 victory. Peoria Cen- tral proved an easy victim in the Big Twelve game, and were beaten by the score of 47-37. The Solons next journeyed over to Ed- wardsville and won 66-51. The Athens boys had a bad night as Springfield trampled them by the score of 65-37. Staunton scored a heartbreaking upset by defeating the So- lons 36-34. The Blades made up an earlier Bloomington setback by dropping me Bloomers 51'-47. Taylorville held the Springfield five, but still lost 32-27. Ma-- comb was again beaten, this time 46-41. The Decatur Reds avenged their earlier loss by beating the Senators. The Solons scored a record for S. H. S. teams in beating Lin- coln for the second time 74-42. ln the final game of the season, the Senators beat Peoria Central in a return match. Cliff Kurrus, the great Springfield center, scored 36 points in that game for a new Big Twelve record for points in a single contest. The Springfield record before the tourna- ment was 17 wins and 7 lossesg the best S. H. S. record in 12 years. Springfield was tied for first in the city race and in the Big Twelve. One Hundred Twenty-five TOURNAMENT PLAY In the first game of the regional meet Springfield defeated Petersburg 54-28. San Jose gave the Senators a few bad moments, but they too ended up as the losers in a 59-33 score. After that the going wasn't so easy. Athens put up a great fight and showed what a great team they really were. The score was deadlocked 42 all, and sent into an overtime. The Senators then took over, and won 49-44 to sweep the regional. ln the sectional S. H. S, met Clinton and Decatur, both teams had beaten us before. However, Gibbs and Gorham were back after their long absences. With seconds to go, Clinton missed several shots, and the game ended with a 34-33 victory for Springfield. The game with Decatur gave the Solons an- other workout. Our team could keep no more than a few points ahead in the scor- ing. The beginning of the last canto saw the Reds in a 4l-38 lead. With the score knotted at 52-all, and about two minutes to go, the Decatur boys made their first mistake in fouling Kurrus several times. He made six consecutive free throws. Then, Gibbs, who was busy all evening, stole the ball under the Red basket and scored to give the S. H. S. Senators a 6l-54 vic- tory, and the sectional tournament. The first team S. H. S. was to meet in the state finals was Dundee, the tourney favorite. Although our team held them for the first quarter, they soon drew ahead and went on to a 69-47 victory over Springfield. One Hundred Twenty-six TRACK The Springfield High School had one of its greatest seasons this year with Coach McQueen's charges winning eight of their ten meets and taking second place in the other two, besides taking second in the State meet.

TENNIS This year the ladder system was used to choose a tennis team to represent Spring- field High School. The six leaders, Walter Hodde, Wendell Hahn, L. Helphenstine, Don Hines, B. lrwin, and Bruce Woodruff have played so far in two meets with Lan- phier and the District Meet. The team beat Lanphier in the first meet by winning 6 of the 7 matches. ln the second meeting, Lan- phier took four of the five matches. The Springfield team took third place in the District meet. The other boys out for ten- nis were: R. Hall, Bob Carle, Pat Noonan, Phil Vance, B, Carrier and J. Beaver. GOLF Ten boys were taken by Coach Peterman to the District Gold tournament. The Sen- ators won with a record score of 305 for the top four. Bob Gorham was second with 73. George Tate placed third with 76. Fourth went to Don Wolaver who made 79. These four were this year's letter win- ners. Charles Glisson and Don Brown will make up the other members of the State team. The other boys out were: John Bunn, Bob Ordeman, Charlie Hoogland, Jack Wol- gamot, Bill Luers, R. Kruckberg and G. Hoffman. BASEBALL Because of the large track program, it was decided that S. H. S. would not par- ticipate in the city or Big Twelve baseball schedules. lnstead, four intramural teams were formed with an all-star team going into the district play. The four intramural teams are headed by Bob Cole, George Daigh, Dale Hatfield and Keith Lacy. The teams are still playing, so no report can be made at this time about the winning team. ln the District meet, ,Feitshans beat out the Springfield all-star team 6 to 4. One Hundred Thirty FRESHMEN FOOTBALL and TRACK ln Freshman football, the Petefish boys didnt have such a good year. They lost four games while winning only one. However, the Freshmen boys received valuable training in the fundamentals of football and will be experienced when they go out for the var- sity in the fall. The track team had a much better record, winning three of the four meets and taking second place in the other meet. The first meet was with the Roches- ter varsity which the freshmen easily won. Then came a dual meet with the Lincoln underclassmen which the young Senators also took. Feitshans won the Freshmen City meet, but S. H. S. won second there. The New Berlin varsity were also over- whelmed by the Springfield Freshmen.

One Hundred Thirty-one CHEER LEADERS and MANAGERS MANAGERS Dale Hatfield Glenn Pratt Homer Mastorakos Part ot the fun at every game is that of cheering for the team, The cheer leaders at S. H. S.-Dolores Golightly, Marianne Hal- pin, Roberta Pelham and Marijane Stryker -made one of the neatest appearances in years. These four vivacious girls were a great factor in the high morale ot the team. and their enthusiastic cheerleading was re-- sponsible for many sore throats among the students. The team managers were an invaluable part of the athletic teams. A complete list of all the activities of our team managers would practicall till a book. Football man- agers Homer Ivllastorakos, Glenn Pratt and Dale Hatfield, and basketball manager Jack Towers performed their various duties swiftly and efficiently. The school owes them many thanks for their long hard hours of service without pay or glory.
