If you must-but never quit. Life is queer, with its twists and turns, As every one of us sometimes learns, And many a failure turns about When he might have won if he'd stuck it out. Stick to your task, though the pace seems slow, You may succeed with another blow. Often the goal is nearer than It seems to a faint and faltering man. Often the snuggle: has given up When he might have captured the victor's cup, And he learned too, when the night slipped down, How close he was to the golden crown. So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit- It's when things seem worst that you mustn't quit! Zfrewvrd We the Annual Staff of 58 are proud to present the 1958 LION We have trxed to grve some 1dea of the most lmportant BCIIVIIICS of the past year W1th the passlng of trme he then d1e away We w1ll never be able to recapture those moments we so enjoyed We hope as you look back through these pages that they w111 always be a source of happy mem ones echoes of our school life will grow fainter and fainter, and I... A Friuczpals Message I appreciate this opportunity to say a few words to the faculty and student body of the St. Jacob School. I have had the privilege to be associated with many of you for the past five years in one rela- tionship or another. Whatever that relationship has been, I hope that I am considered, above all else - a friend. The Annual Staff and sponsors deserve congratulations and thanks for the production of this fine record of school events in 1957-58. I wish to thank the faculty for their splendid cooperation during the school year. To the underclassmen, I would extend the admonition that continued coopera- tion, diligence and persistence will be necessary to carry their school career hereto its successful conclusion. To the graduating seniors, I would extend hearty congratulations and best wishes for ever-increasing success in whatever pursuits they may follow in the future. I would remind them, however, that they are only beginning to face those decisions which will be of such vital importance throughout the coming years - may these decisions be wise ones, and may they lead to prosperous and happy lives.

As usual the Sr. Jacob F,F,A. Chapter had a very active year. The chapter held two regular meetings during the summer and two meetings a month during the school year. We purchased all items necessary to conduct the meetings with our chapter funds. We were able to obtain these funds through the sales of Christmas cards, screwdrivers, hog troughs, and calendar ads. On October 15, five freshman boys became Greenhands and on November 27 be- came Chapter Farmers. On February 10, we were host to the Troy chapter in a joint party. A pest contest was held during the winter months and a party was given to the win- ning team by the losing team. Ice cream and cake was enjoyed by all attending. In the spring, we secured multi-flora rose and pine trees for members and farmers in this area. On May 7, 1958, the annual Parent-Son Banquet was held in the school cafeteria and gym. The boys' mothers and several high school girls cooked and served the meal, The awards for the year's accomplishments were made. Snaps of the banquet and pro- gram are on the next page. This is a small summary of the activities of those busy F, F. A, members. They are, truly, the Future Farmers of America! Compliments of GIBSON GALEENER CO.

With six returning lettermen and high hopes for a good season, the Lions started heavy drills in mid-October. Again hampered by lack of height and weight, the fire- wagon style was employed in hopes of substituting speed for size. The season opened with an easy 63-50 victory over Witt, but in the second game a plague of injuries began. Added to the measles and other sickness the old injury jinx held the Lions to a poor four and seven record at Christmas time. With the return of Tom Ahlmeyer in January the team almost hit full strength and won six of eight, the only black marks being back-to-back losses to a very strong Columbia team. During this time the squad brought home the first place consolation trophy from the New Baden Invitation Tourney, and with it a new school scoring record with a 104-86 victory over Patoka. Injuries and sickness again interfered and the Lions did not regain their stride until about District Tourney time as they rang down the curtain on the regular season with a 96-52 victory over Witt. In the District Tourney a weak Marquette team put on an amazing shooting exhibi- tion in the second half to give the Lions a scare after a near rout the first half. St. Jacob hung on for an 87 -'79 victory and the right to face Troy in the second round. Against Troy the jittery Lions shot their second lowest field percentage in two years and dropped a 65-'76 decision after leading through the early part of the game. Wayne Frutiger established new records in single game scoring, 42, season scoring, 543, and field goals, 226. Mike McKinney set new marks in free throw percentage with 814 and assists with 196. Henry Robards tied the defensive rebounding record with 200 and received the Most Valuable Player Award for consistent play. Seiberlich, Schmitt, Ahlmeyer and Seger played steady ball throughout the season. Compliments of SCI-lMITT'S BARBER SHOP St. Jacob, Illinois IW!! Front row, left to right: D. Grotefendt, J.

H. S. : Just a few words to recall our four years at Jakle High which were mixed with both work and fun. Our Freshman year began by electing class officers. They were: President, Richard Wehrleg Vice- President, Edward Petroski, Secretary, Phyllis Blumer, Treasurer, Michael McKinney. Miss Bradney was chosen sponsor. She appointed Kay Becker as class reporter. Mike and Betty Ellis were Student Council members. Other members of the class were: Tillie Arthur, Wayne Frutiger, Edmond Gansmann, Harold Hoenig, Thomas Prange, Mary Raymond, Henry Robards, Robert Schiefer and Wanda Schmidt. At a later meeting the class chose green and white, class colors, gardenia, class flower, Onward and upward to life in the future, class motto. In the late fall of '54, the class was initiated at a party given by the Student Council. We also gave a party for the oncoming Freshmen. We sold candy at the basketball games to raise money. We began our Sophomore year with fourteen members, losing Edward Petroski. The officers who were to guide us during this year were: Tom, President, Richard, Vice -President, Betty, Secretary, Tillie, Treasurer, Kay, Reporter, and Mary and Tom were Student Council members. Miss Bradney was chosen as our sponsor. The class gave a Halloween party and also sold candy at basketball games. We ordered our rings this year, and were positive they were the best ever selected. On March 12, we lost Richard, who moved to Pocahontas. Wayne took his place as Vice-President. Our Junior year was one of our most exciting as well as busiest years. Once again there were fourteen members. A new member, Jolene Seger from Trenton, joined the class. The officers chosen this year were: Tom, President, Henry, Vice-President, Mary, Secretary, Mike, Treasurer, Kay, Reporter, and Edmond and Wanda were Student Council Representatives. Miss Bradney was our sponsor once again. We sold soda at the games this year, had charge of two soda machines, picked up corn, gave a Halloween party, and decorated for the Christmas Hop. Our Junior-Senior Banquet and Prom was enjoyed by all who attended. The theme was Fantasyland and much hard work was put into it. And then that long awaited year at last. Seniors! !! On August 31, 1957, fifteen proud and eager seniors climbed the steps of Jakie High for their final and most enjoyable year. Mary moved to Tennessee and Paul Seiberlich and Ronald Willman, both from Marine, joined the class. Class officers this year were: President, Tom, Vice-President, Henry, Secretary, Betty, Treasurer, Kay, Reporter, Wanda. Mr. Jensen was our sponsor and Kay and Tom were Student Council members. The class sold magazines, individual pictures, candy, picked up corn, sponsored a box social and a skating party, and had work days to earn money for the trip to Washington, D. C. Those who belonged to basketball were: Wayne, Mike, Henry, Bob, Edmond, and Paul. Harold was manager and Tom was statistician. Boys on the baseball team were: Mike, Henry, Wayne, Paul and Bob.

Those on the paper staff were: Kay, Tillie, Betty, Jo, Wanda, Paul, Henry, Tom, Harold and Ronald. Phyllis was editor. Kay and Mike belonged to chorus. Betty, Tillie, Kay, Phyllis, Wanda, Mike, Wayne and Edmond were band members. On May 28, fifteen proud but scared seniors sat in the gym of the, St. Jacob school for the last time - as students - and received their diplomas. Kay Becker was selected as the valedictorian and Tom Prange as the salutatorian. Other awards went to the following people: Valedictorian and Salutatorian awards - Kay and Tom, I Dare You - Leadership Awards - Henry and Betty, Musical Leadership - Wanda, Citizen- ship Award - Tillie, D.A,R, Good Citizen Award - Betty, Athletic Awards - Mike and Henry, Other Leadership Awards - Kay and Tom, and Band Medals - Wanda, Kay, Tillie, Betty, Phyllis, Mike, Wayne, and Edmond.
