C. H. S. This was The year ThaT a new presidenT was elecTed for our naTion. We elecTed our presidenr, Guy FriTz, and vice-presidenT, Mary Ann SwifT. Phyllis Schiffbauer was elecTed secreTary, Mary Jo Corrigan was elecTed Treas- urer, and Bob Earles was elecTed reporTer. Mr. Mesik was our sponsor. To raise funds for our fufure acTiviTies, we paid class dues and had bake sales. Our ac- counT did noT increase very much The firsT year, buT we were proud of whaT liTTle we did save. Early in The school year The sophomores in- auguraTed us inTo T. C. H. S. We had To dress as carToon characfers and scrub The school sTeps wiTh TooThbrushes. LaTer The sophomores inviTed us To a parTy, and we reTurned The favor by honoring Them wiTh a parTy in The spring. ln The fall of T953 we were sophomores. The spark of elecTriciTy creaTed by Ben Franklin and his kiTe 200 years before was nofhing compared To The charge we creaTed when we enTered The halls of T. C. H. S. This fall. We had losT four members, buT we had noT weakened. UniTed we sTand, and unifed we sTood. This was The year STraTTon was elecTed gov- ernor of Illinois. lmporTanT? Yes. BUT our new officers were also elecTed. Bob Earles and his guardian angel acquired The honorable office of presidenT. Gayl Milner was chosen vice-presi- denT, Guy FriTz, secrefary, Beverly Ferroni, Treas- urer, and Deloris Gray, reporTer. Mr. Clark was our sponsor. This year wiTnessed The royal ceremony of The crowning of ElizabeTh as Queen of England. Our class gave The freshmen a royal welcome inTo high school. They dressed as carToon char- acTers, and as our royal subiecfs They had To bow To us whenever we came inTo sighT. In May we chose our class rings wiTh deliv- ery promised in The early fall. ln The fall of T954 we marched faiThfully back To T. C. H. S. We had losT Two more mem- bers and now numbered 27. This year Mr. ArThur was our sponsor. PeTe HilTabrand was presidenT, Beverly Ferroni, vice- presidenf, Bonna Launius, secreTary, Bob Earles, Treasurer, and Mary Jo was reporTer. This was a greaT year for us. We sold pop and candy aT acTiviTies, and we held our bake sales. Miss Boddie helped us produce a comedy play, Desperate Ambrose. Early in April we sponsored The prom. The Theme was Hawaiian Cruise. We decorated The old gymnasium in Hawaiian moTif and in- viTed The seniors as our guesTs. The cruise was very successful, however, iT ended Too soon, and we had To reTurn To T. C. H. 5. ln May we waTched The senior graduaTion ceremonies and anTicipaTed when we Too would graduaTe. ln The fall of T955 we lnow 2il were seniors! We decided To seTTle down and work a liTTle. Our guardian angels were becoming disgusTed aT Trying To keep up our grades when we didn'T seem To care. For many of us Thisswas To be our final year of schooling. This year our efforfs were direcfed Toward Three goals. school work, The Trip To WashingTon, D. C., and graduaTion. IT was a busy year. Remember The selling of pop and candy, The suppers, bake sales, dances, coaT checking, concessions, and anyThing we could Think of To make money for ThaT Trip To Washingfonl Remember The comedy play, A Lucky Penny, ThaT Mr. Slabaugh helped us pro- duce? An employmenT agency gave us TesTs To see whaT posiTion we were besT suiTed for. Many of us were very surprised To see whaT we were capable of doing. The iuniors sponsored The prom for us in The monfh of May. Thank you, juniors! We shall al- ways remember iT. The nexT evenT To come, and The lasT one, was graduaTion. One day in T956 we were seniors, The nexT day we were beginners again. .siziofz Cyfaai of 7956 As we, the senior class of 1956, leave our clear old high school where we have spent the last four faithful years having fun and troubles, we realize something must be left so we are not forgotten too soon.

We are indeed Thankful To Judy Gehm and PeTe HilTabrand for invenfing The amazing formula for ouT of space flying. When we approached The rockeTporT, who do you suppose was The doorman? None oTher Than Chuck Miller. We chaTTed a while, buT Then we came To The conclusion ThaT we had beTTer purchase our TickeTs before The ship Took off wiThouT us. AT The Tickef counTer we called To a young lady, and when Anne Ashley Turned around she shouTed in surprise. IT was unbelievable! Mary Jo was on The roof of The glass sTrucTure doing a Tap dueT wiTh her fiance, Mike. Soon The aTTracTive Phyllis Schiffbauer came in wiTh her bugle, and she gave us The signal ThaT The rockeT was ready To leave. Zoom! We were off for ouTer space. We had always wondered whaT The conTrol panel looked like, so we asked The preTTy sTew- ardess, Eleanor I-larseim, if we could Take a look aT iT. She obliged, and we made Tracks To The conTrol room. The piloT as well as The co-piloT seemed familiar when I approached Them. Guess whaT! They were none oTher Than Diane and boyfriend, Howard. They were Trying To lisTen To Bob Earles' poliTical speech over The space radio and were having a difficulf Time concenTraTing on The conTrols. You see, Bob was running for UniTed STaTes PresidenT. AlThough we were Traveling T999 miles per hour iT seemed we would never reach The re- fueling sTaTion on Mars. We had no sooner spoken our ThoughTs To each oTher when we sTarTed To land on The .IeTer RockeT-porT, where Mr. JeTer was Teaching one of his many classes. We had no sooner landed when a handsome young man named Johnny Beenenga came zipping around servicing The ship for The nexT iaunf. As soon as The ramp was lowered and The escalaTor seT up, we headed Toward Bonna and CharIie's Cafe. They were very happy To see us. IT seems ThaT They had had a liTTle Tiff abouT how To fry hamburgers, and marriage coun- selor, Roger Ploch, had given Them some fine advice. IThey fry Them Ploch sTyle now.l We were almosT home when we sighTed a meTeor heading Toward us. The piloTs losT con- TacT while Trying To dodge iT, and we speeded Toward earTh in a nose dive. AfTer The crash everyone was Taken To The Tonica ATom Con- Trolled HospiTal, which was operaTed and spon- sored by The very successful Beverly Ferroni. IT was here ThaT Dr. Guy FriTz and Dr. STephy Sydlowski, his brillianT assisTanT, Told us ThaT no one was iniured. Before we were released, we learned ThaT Duane Klehm had complefed a remarkable feaT. The world would forever be aT peace, Thanks To The KlehminTine Peace TreaTy wiTh all naTions. IT was abouT Time for The new ediTion of The Sandra NaTionaI Times To be on sale, so we picked up a copy. You see, Sandra Calkins was ediTor and owner of The largesr newspaper in The universe. We were very happy To see in This paper ThaT Gayl Milner had been selecTed as The mosT consTrucTive and ambiTious young debuTanTe. She was sponsoring The reunion of The class of 1956 Today in The halls of T. C. H. S. As we glanced aT The M. T. V. lMars Tele- visionl, we couldn'T believe our eyes! There was misfress of ceremonies, Marlene Zimmerman, infroducing The greaT magician, Maibelle WierTz. Maibelle said ThaT she was doing no magic on This show, buT iusr Then Mary Ann SwifT, The beauTiful model, lumped ouT of her haf. We hurried back To our ship afTer lunch. As soon as we reached The moon, we rushed To our seafs in The Tonica Sfadiurn. IT was There ThaT Bob Cave was playing singlehanded againsT The Harlem Moon TroTTers. IT was a mi- raculous moonslide. Bob won by IO7 poinTs. Boy, does he have a fan club! We goT Bob's auTograph and sTarTed back To earTh.
