We chose as officers: Ruben Grant, President; Beryl Howell, Vice President; and Don Day, Secretary-Treasurer. Our first year was uneventful except for the splendid sponsors, Miss Main and Mr. Morton, who guided us carefully through our hardest year. Upon entering our second year of this glorious adventure, we were highly cultivated Sophomores, striving in every way possible to do as we thought best. Our officers were: Dave Miller, President; Velma Cobb, Vice President; and Janet Downend, Secretary-Treasurer. We proved our superiority over all classes by winning the ticket sale for the Tolo Carnival, thus winning the privilege of choosing the Tolo King and Queen, Bob Shinn and Velma Cobb. We received first prize, $2.00, for the best Tolo Stunt. With Miss Main and Mr. Metzger as our sponsors and Dave Miller as dancer how could we have failed ? This year, Martha Johnson brought honor to our class in the speech contest by placing second at Aledo, fifth in the District at Macomb, and first in the County. Summer vacation skipped by quickly and in the fall of '36 we entered perhaps the greatest years of our school career. Again highly soaring above all others, we came through victorious in the ticket sale for the Tolo Carnival. Raymond Cupie” Howell and Lucy Heaton were chosen as our King and Queen. This year we won second prize of $1.00 for the Tolo Stunt. One of the special events of the year was the Junior-Senior Reception, sponsored by the Juniors. The theme, carried out in green and white, was a circus. After an elaborate dinner, dancing became the entertainment of the evening. Our class sponsors, Miss Main, Miss Chase, and Mr. Metzger helped in ever)' way. Our first experience as actors came when the Junior Class play entitled Miss Jimmy” was given to a responsive audience. Our class officers were: Elaine Armstrong, President; Janet Downend, Vice President; Velma Cobb, Secretary; and Janet Armstrong, Treasurer. We were very sorry to lose Hazel Stambaugh during the year because of her illness, and join in wishing her a speedy recovery. We entered the final lap of our journey in ’37. The Seniors sponsored the play Where There’s A Will” with Miss Butcher as director. It was our pleasure to be the guest at the annual Prom given to the Seniors by the Juniors. Velma Cobb was elected into the office of President; with Ruth Shearer, Vice President; Janet Downend, Secretary; and Martha Johnson, Treasurer. This year it was our good fortune to sponsor the annual Tolo.” Our sponsors, Miss Main, Miss Fisher, and Mr. Earles, did their part in making it a perfect year. —Janet Armstrong — Helen Goodwin Class Colors Bine and White • Class Flower Red Carnation Class Motto Can Your Can'Is fO m He len Armstrong Dale Fell 3:11 Appsnheimer Fcr. h • .i .• y'.-.v heuner Jjm Fennell Velma Cobb (Jane I Down end Zuci He Heal on Betty Appenheimer A still tongue maketh a wise head. • Girls League; Glee Club, 3, 4; Operetta, 3; Service Club, 1; Hiking Club. 1; G.

A SENIOR Some are weary, some are gay, Some wai l to go, some want to stay, But in my own mind, I agree, Without Toulon High, sad I'll he. When football games come winding round,” How I'll wish to he schoolward bound; I’ll shed some tears from my swollen eyes, When seeing all the kids pass by. Many a lime 1 hare declared, About my leaving I'd never care, But when the time draws nearly here, Down inside me comes a fear. Teachers and friends all so true— What on earth shall I do without you? You with your kindness and help so rare, Leaving this school I cannot bear. But graduation is drawing near With all its sorrow, joy, and cheer, livery Senior in his heart, Hates the time when we must part. When that night of all nights comes, With singing, speaking and laughing from some, Mothers and fathers everywhere, Beaming on their children fair. Then the president a few words will say, Next, the diplomas will be given away, Then we’l! march off that night in May, Bach going in his separate way. —Helen Goodwin Senior Class Will I, Velma Cobb, will my golden locks to Robert Pendarvis, because he really would look cute with curly blonde hair—or does she like 'em dark?

Signed, sealed, and executed this eleventh day of February, in the year of our Lord, nineteen hundred and thirty-eight. Witnesses: — Tarzan” Swango —Pat Cover LEADERS Elaine Armstrong and Velma Cobb The door was open and we walked in, And tiptoed up the stairs, We shyly edged round the fat and thin, And marched right up to our chairs. We were the Freshmen of ’34 A darned good bunch, our teachers said. We knew our aim when we entered the door, To be leaders and not to be led.” In ’33, as the Sophomore class, Some had dropped; some had quit, But as a whole, most all did pass, We were a class with wit. Each year we get more knowledge— This class is far from dead. And when we get to college, We'll be leaders, and not be led. As junior class in ’36, Our aim we still held high. A prom, it was our fob to fix, To tell the Seniors bye. We feel we did that job quite well, As juniors we still said, It will be great to live to tell, We were leaders, and not led.” In ’37 we entered once more; Our ivork is not yet through, But soon as it is, we shall leave this shore And we will be sorry, too. So in 1938 we’ll go, And a good many tears we’ll shed, But our record here will always show, We were leaders, and not led. 2o Senior Hit Parade Gale Newman ...... Lucille Heaton...

My silly attitude had changed, When to school I came next fall, 1 found I had to faithfully study, To pass hated geometry and all. In the fall of thirty-six, A full fledged Junior was I, I crammed and learned all I could, While the year passed quickly by. And now I am a Senior, Although with many a blunder, Quite intelligent should I be, But, oh, how I wonder! —Dorothy Appenheimer As my knowledge slowly increased, The less 1 seemed to know, And notv I have concluded, With everyone ’tis so.

Much talent, energy, and intelligence was to be found among those of the caravan. The Freshmen lads surprised all with their ability on the basketball floor. The girls also proved victorious over their upper-class opponents in volley ball. Roy Wasson led the caravan with the assistance of Lura Church and Martha Holmes as Vice President and Secretary-Treasurer, respectively. Miss Butcher and Mr. Wilkins were capable guides. During the year, Glenn Yelm, Jr., and Day Dean McBride were dropped along the wayside. In 1936, James Durbin took the lead with the aid of Frances Nicholson and Leonard White. Mr. Wyckoff and Miss Butcher guided the caravan. Again some fell out and did not return. Darlene Frail dropped out at the half way mark, while Beatrice Hand left us later. In the summer of 1937, the class was saddened by the death of James Hutchens in an automobile accident. Verna Mahany was lost for awhile, but was soon found again. Then came the year of 1937, in which the caravan of Jolly Juniors continued on their journey. Frances Nicholson was appointed to lead the group and Margaret Clare McManus was her assistant with Robert Pendarvis as Treasurer and Elnora Walker, Secretary. Miss Chase, Miss Durnin, and Mr. Metzger were chosen as guides to lead us safely through the Junior-Senior Prom. In this part of the journey, Verna Mahany again joined us and Jim McGinn became a member of the group. This year, Betty Cole became one of the Cheer Leaders and worked hard and well at her task of keeping up the spirit of the school. —Elnora Walker —Marjorie Flanagan Name Dale Addis ......

With the help of Miss Durnin and Mr. Wilkins, our class officers were soon elected. They were: President, James Webster; Vice President, Dorothy Brian; Secretary-Treasurer, Dale Smith. A few weeks later our class was launched into social life when it was entertained at a party given by the Seniors. Later in the year we gave a Valentine party. We were very proud of Dorothy Brian, whose abilities in humorous declamation brought her first place in the Sub-District Contest, second place in the District, honorable mention at the State, and second in the County contest. When school closed in May, we had lost eight of our fellow classmates. As we started our second year on September 7, 1937, we were fortunate to gain Dean Hedges and Bill Colgan. This year John Flynn as President, Ruth Walker as Secretary and George Gerard as Treasurer are being assisted by Miss Butcher and Mr. Fuller as class advisers. On December 17, our class sponsored an all-school party. Although we have yet a long way to go, we are all looking forward to great things from the class of 1940. —Harriet Kerns —Jean Allison Freshman Class History On Monday, September 7, 1937, a group of forty green but growing Freshmen entered the doors of Toulon Township High School. Although we were bashful at first, it was but a short time until we were accustomed to our new surroundings. During the first month we were honored at a party given by our Sophisticated Superiors,” the Seniors. Those receiving the distinction of being our class officers were: President.................Doris Cobb Vice President...........Roger Miller Secretary..........Roberta Pendarvis Treasurer..........Marcine Murchison With the help of our advisors, Mr. Wyckoff and Miss Barton, we are progressing rapidly in our scholastic work and social activities. It is indeed our hope that during the remaining portion of our high school career we will be as successful as we have been thus far. —Jean McManus —Lester Lee Silliman zi Sophomore Class Roll: Front Row, Left to Right—Leigh Scott, Hugh Carter, Dorothy Brian, Harriet Kerns, Frances Green.

Synopsis: When the will of a rich uncle is read, James Emerson learns that he will get his share if he proves he is master of his house, and Lorna Keith will get her share if she continues to tell the truth. Other members of the family who are jealous, try to force Lorna to tell a falsehood. They rail, and Lorna and James receive their portions of the will. Between acts, Dorothy Brian played two ac-cordian solos and the Girls’ Chorus sang several numbers. THE CAST: Mrs. Zella Keith.....................................

The crowd thoroughly enjoyed Mama’s Baby Boy, a farce in three acts by Charles George. One laugh piled on another until the audience was almost weak from howling at the ridiculous, mirth-provoking lines and scenes. Imagine the great amount of fun that was obtained by having a very attractive widow, nearly forty, force her eighteen year old son to dress and pose as a youth of fourteen, so that she might pass as a younger woman and marry a supposedly wealthy widower. In turn, the widower, trying to appear younger, had his seventeen year old daughter pose as a girl of thirteen, so that he might wed the widow, whom he believed to be rich. Neither the widow nor the widower had a cent, both having lost their money in the stock market. The boy's grandmother also added to the fun by appearing in a ridiculously youthful costume. When the boy's friends saw him in his youthful attire, they, too, dressed up in youthful fashion to tease him. The craze for appearing youthful even spread to the colored maid in the household, who appeared ready to serve dinner, dressed as a child of twelve. Eventually the widow and widower decided to marry and another romance, which made the play more involved, was planned. THE CAST: Mrs. Shephard McLean .......................

Le C e r c I € Francais Je declare que la seance esl ouverte.” With these words President Ruth Shearer has called to order the meetings of the French Club. The Club, composed of members of the French I and II classes, has as its aims the study and appreciation of French culture and history. At our organization meeting, the members learned how to conduct the meetings in French, and French names were adopted for the I'appel— roll-call—which is read by Mile, la secretaire, Mary Turnbull. At a later meeting, the interesting topic for discussion was the International Exposition being held in Paris this year. Tests on cultural material were given, and contests between the two classes proved exciting. Joyeux Noel el Bonne Annee! At our Christmas meeting we had lots of fun singing carols in French and learning about Christmas customs in France. The French I class presented a play, Le Noel du Petit Pierre,’’ with the following person-nages: I ides Then riot—Jack Chase Margot, sa femme—Frances Nicholson Jacques, leur enfant—Helen Reamer Cleonine, leur enfant—Mary Clark Pierre Gilles, petit orphelin—Betty Cole Andre, un ancien soldal—Bernard Shults le chat (la bete pauvre)—Wallace's cat When we met in February, our topic was French history, and the members replied to I'appet with interesting facts about famous men and women. We learned La Marseillaise, the national anthem, and sang it with gusto, if not with musical perfection. Mme. Kuhlman of Davenport was a welcome guest at this meeting, and we hope she enjoyed it. At a future meeting we plan to discuss Well Known Buildings of Paris.” To symbolize their membership, the members voted to buy little pins with Le Cercle Francais and the jleur de Us, the national emblem, engraved upon them. On Saturday, January 22, the members drove to Peoria and enjoyed the movie Conquest, dealing with the life of Napoleon. Other social times are expected, since we plan to have a party near the end of the year. Commercial The Typing I team in the Stark County Contest was composed of Martha Holmes, Betty Cole, and Frances Nicholson. The team placed first, and Frances placed second as individual.

They elected the following officers: Helen Armstrong, President; Evelyn Harlan, Vice President; Marita Egbert, Secretary; Nellie Winn, Treasurer; and Etta Marie Crow, News Reporter. Our local club, which is a member of the State and National Associations, was represented at the State Conference by Helen Armstrong and Evelyn Harlan. Later, these girls gave interesting reports, telling of their trip to Rockford. At the various meetings, interesting speakers have been obtained. Sibella Rutherford spoke on Flower Arrangement” and Florence Steinman on Hair Dress and Makeup.” The members sponsored the Alumni Basketball game and sold candy until they secured enough money to purchase two pieces of red maple furniture. The former dining room is now used for a girls' lounging room, where the girls may spend their leisure time. Nellie Winn won honors for the Club when she received third place in the National Cheese Contest. She was rewarded with twenty-five dollars. The girls plan to hear Miss Johnson, the Home Bureau Adviser, Mrs. McWilliam, and Dr. Williamson at future dates. Girls’ Ensemble During the second semester, a girls' sextet was organized, and practices were held three times a week under the leadership of Mr. Fuller. Members of the ensemble were: sopranos, Esther Jones, Catherine Winn; second sopranos, Frances Nicholson, Ruth Shearer; altos, Betty Cole, Nellie Winn. Martha Holmes accompanied the group at the piano. The girls sang between stunts at the Tolo Carni- val, offering three numbers: Morning,” Honey Town,” and The Big Brown Bear. The ensemble participated in the Sub-District Vocal Contest, held April 16 at Geneseo. Singing two numbers— Morn Rise,” by Czibulka, and Lo! A Voice to Heaven Sounding, by Bortnian-sky—the ensemble was rated Excellent” and was privileged to advance to the District Contest at DeKalb. At this District Contest, held April 23, the sextet received a Good” rating. 3 HOME ECONOMICS CLUB Roll: front row, left to right—Elaine Armstrong, Roberta Pendarvis, Anne Williamson, Miss Chase, Betty Cole, Thelma Seckman, Dorothy Brian.

GIRLS’ ENSEMBLE Girls’ Glee Club About forty girls of the school belong to the Girls’ Glee Club, under the direction of Mr. Fuller. The group is divided into two sections, one meeting the fourth period and the other at three-fifteen; each practices twice a week. Velma Cobb plays for the fourth hour group, and Martha Holmes accompanies the after-school section. The Girls’ Glee Club sang between acts of the Senior Class Play, offering Handel’s Largo”; In These Delightful, Pleasant Groves,” by Purcell; and Listen to the Lambs,” by Dett. Girls’ Contest Club Seventeen girls were chosen by Mr. Fuller to participate in the Sub-District Music Contest at Geneseo on April 16. This contest chorus, accompanied by Martha Holmes, rehearsed several times a week. The selections for the contest were Lullaby,” by Noble Cain, and Lift Thine Eyes,” by Mendelssohn. The chorus received an Excellent” rating at the contest. Mixed Contest Chorus A mixed chorus, composed of twenty-eight voices, was organized by Mr. Fuller for participation in the Sub-District contest, and the group practiced several times a week. Martha Holmes accompanied the chorus at the piano. Numbers chosen for the contest were Homeland, by Noble Cain, and Carol of the Russian Children, by Gaul. From the Sub-District, the chorus advanced to the District meet at DeKalb on April 23, where a rating of Good” was received. Messiah The general aim or objective of all education is to develop, through material in itself worth while, the attitude, habits, knowledge, and skill which shall make every child a worthy member of society.” With this in mind, and knowing that musical material in itself worth while includes those works that will live—those of present interest and of permanent value—our High School Mixed Chorus presented the Christmas portions of Handel’s Messiah at a public vesper service in the gym- nasium on Sunday, December 19. A beautiful candlelight procession and carols by the grade school chorus preceded the production. Other townspeople assisting the chorus and contributing several solos and recitatives were: Miss Marjorie Newton, Miss Lucille McKee, Mrs. Florence Fell, Mrs. Ralph Cover, Lester Winans, William Allison and Charles Lyon—the latter from Savanna, Illinois. Miss Irene Nowlan and Miss Martha Holmes accompanied the group at the two pianos. 7 GIRLS’ GLEE CLUB Roll: front row, left to right—Lucille Heaton, Lura Church, Roberta Pendarvis, Betty Cole, Jean McManus, Doris Cobb, Bernice McCans, Elaine Armstrong, Dorothy Brian, Mr. Second Row, left to right—Velma Cobb, Rebecca Hagy, Margaret Clare McManus, Ruth Turn-bull, Verna Mahany, Marcine Murchison, Marjorie Cree, Janet Armstrong, Doris Chamberlain, Helen Reamer, Thelma Seckman.

Shults To Graduate TOULON-WETHERSFIELD GAME Winning their thirteenth victory, the Toulon Trojans plucked the Geese to a 25 to 13 victory. Toulon held the Geese the first three quarters to a 19 to 0 score. Tired with heat and hard play, the first team was substituted with the seconds who allowed the Geese to score their thirteen points and gained 6 points for Toulon. The Geese scored their first touchdown after partially blocking a punt from Toulon when Toulon fumbled on the first play. Wethersfield recovered the ball and scored again, this time making the extra point. 1 Toulon vs. Toulon's homecoming battle, preceded by the usual parade and bonfire and followed by the game itself, turned into a great success for the Trojans. Keyed to a high pitch for the ancient rivalry, the Trojans left nothing to be desired of a great gridiron team as they overwhelmed a weak band of Wyoming Indians to the tune of 56 to 0. Before the spectators had barely time to make themselves comfortable, Toulon had scored a touchdown, Wasson crossing the pay stripe on a fake reverse from the tw'elve-yard line. From then on through the entire game, it was nothing but a rout for the Trojans. With Miller, Bruning and Wasson alternating with the ball-toting and the forward wall joining into the festivity of the occasion with superb blocking, the Trojans were all Wyoming over the field, scoring touchdowns via both air and land routes, intercepting passes, blocking kicks and tackling with great vigor and determination. Outstanding for Toulon were Don Coakley, who proved a thorn in the Wyoming offense all night by his hard tackling, and Dave Miller, who scored six touchdowns during the course of the evening. Far more outstanding, though, than the individual accomplishments was the ideal cooperation of team play which kept Wyoming from securing a single first down; in fact, they ended up twenty-seven yards in the hole. This same cooperation was prevalent in all the Trojans' games this year and will surely live on in the memories of these same boys as being the greatest attribute to their astonishing success. Galva vs. Toulon Taking the ball on the kick-off Toulon advanced to their own 30-yard line where they were forced to kick to Galva. Upon gaining possession of the ball, Galva promptly marched to the Toulon 1 yard line, where it was first down and goal to go. At this point a greatly bewildered Trojan line dug their cleats into the frozen gridiron and grimly awaited the onslaught of the Wildcats, whose fans were already scenting the thrill of victory. Galva pounded into the Trojan wall four straight times and four straight times they were mercilessly thrown for losses by the awakened forward wall of the famed Trojans. Toulon then punted out of danger, ending all scoring threats of the first half. The final half was put into play by Toulon kicking to Galva. The play then merged into Galva territory, being a determined running attack of the Trojans. Midway in the third quarter Toulon shifted into a strategic semi-spread formation from where speedy Dutch Bruning swiveled his way to the Galva 9-yard line. Three thrusts into the fighting Wildcat line brought Toulon to the 5-yard line, squarely in front of the goal posts. On fourth down Bruning dropped back and, with Shinn holding the ball, drove a perfect kick from placement squarely between the white bars of the goal posts. Thus, at the end of the third quarter, the score was Trojans 3, Wildcats 0. Throughout the fourth quarter, Galva was kept in check by great defensive work on the part of Bob Shinn. Then with two minutes to play, Galva started a belated passing attack which ended on the Trojan 10-yard line as they lost the ball on downs just as the gun sounded. Thus, Toulon won her twentieth consecutive victory and with it, her eighth consecutive Blackhawk title. 3 THE TROJANS CAPTAIN DAVE MILLER—HALFBACK Second All-State Team Right halfback. Dave has just completed a brilliant career at Toulon. For four years, Dave has been doing great work for the Trojans and at the close of each year he was chosen as one of the best in the conference. He could do everything that a halfback should do and do it well. His great spirit made him an ideal leader for Toulon's championship team. DUTCH BRUNING—HALFBACK ■Dutch'' ended his third year as a regular in his customary brilliant style. Against Galva his able toe proved the difference between victory and defeat for the Trojans when he kicked a field goal by placement from the 15-yard line. He is fast and shifty and especially dangerous when returning punts. ROY WASSON—FULLBACK Roy's reward for three years of hard work is captaincy for 1938. He is a hard-hitting plunger, a driving runner and a fine defensive man. Playing guard on defense, he was constantly sifting through the line and picking offensive backs before they got started. We predict a great year for Roy in ’38. JIMMY WEBSTER—QUARTERBACK Although just a Sophomore, Jim earned position in the regular backfield by his fighting spirit. He could throw or catch passes and was a great little defensive back. Here is a boy who will bear much watching by opposing teams in his remaining two years. WILBUR DUSTIN—HALFBACK Another sophomore who, with a little more experience, should prove a valuable man during his remaining years. A fast driving back and a good defensive man. BOB SHINN—END Playing his third year as a regular. Bob was one of the best defensive and offensive ends in Trojan history. His blocking on off-table smashes by Brun-ing and Miller was especially brilliant. His services will be missed greatly next year for, in addition to playing end, he also had the ability to shift into the backfield when needed. DON DAY—TACKLE Breaking into the line-up his Senior year, Don proved to be one of the bulwarks of a championship team. His willingness to learn and his possession of a do-or-die spirit made him a valuable man in '37 and a hard one to replace in '38. DUD BERFIELD—END Another promising Sophomore who improved as the season went on. Fast and driving, his end-around plays proved a boon to the Trojans. a WARREN WILKINS—GUARD Wilkins’ forward drives opened many holes for our backs to plunge through. Warren was a hard-fighting lineman who inspired his teammates with his spirit. His work against Peoria Woodruff and Galva was especially effective. JOEL WRIGHT—CENTER Judgie, playing his last year of football for the Trojans, proved to be a fine line backer and pass defensive man. His work in the Geneseo game will long be remembered by those who played beside him. His passing from center could be depended upon on wet days as well as dry ones. DON COAKLEY—GUARD This portion of the stone wall has been stopping charges at the middle of the Trojan wall for two years. Don is a speedy guard who can always be depended upon when the going is tough. Great things are expected of this boy next year. BILL LAMBERT—TACKLE Bill is the strong man” of the squad. When he plants himself at a tackle post it is almost impossible to move him. He has lots of fight and loves the game. Bill should be one of the finest tackles in the surrounding district next year. BOB GOODWIN—END Tall and rangy, this boy was a definite asset to our team. He also proved his ability in the Galva game by his smearing of runs directed toward his position. BOB ADDIS—TACKLE A reserve who could be relied upon when sent into the game. Bob supplied a definite punch needed on any championship team. His senior year should be a good one. DALE ADDIS—TACKLE Another reserve tackle, Dale was a tall and rangy chap and, although playing his first year of football, he left notice by his play that Toulon has another dependable lineman for '38. GEORGE GERARD—GUARD Eggie” is another one of our speedy guards who delights in stopping opposing line plays before they get started. George was one of the hardest tacklers on the squad. A real star in '38. JIM McGINN—END Playing his first year of football, this Camp Grove product showed promise at the very start and steadily improved as the season progressed. His work against Galva proved that he will be a real star in '38.

CHRISTMAS HOLIDAY TOURNEY Eight teams competing in Toulon's Holiday Basketball Tournament this year were: Wyoming, Bradford, La Fayette, Wethersfield, Williamsfield, Galva, Princeville, and Toulon — Galva being a newcomer to the tournament. The upper bracket of the tournament included Galva, Wethersfield, Princeville, and Bradford, with Wethersfield considered the favorite. The lower bracket was made up of Toulon, Williamsfield, La Fayette, and Wyoming, with Toulon dominating the bracket. In the first game, which went into overtime play, Wethersfield defeated Galva by two points. Then a few minutes later, the Princeville team— always a fine tournament team—defeated a fighting Bradford squad in one of the hardest fought games of the whole tournament. The following night, La Fayette garnered a win over Wyoming, and Toulon easily defeated Williamsfield. In the semi-finals, Princeville won a surprising upset over Wethersfield and Toulon continued her winning streak by defeating La Fayette. Thus, Princeville and Toulon met in the finals in the hardest fought struggle the tournament fans had seen. It was an exciting finish to the fans to see Toulon come from behind to win with a score of 25 to 24. Galva defeated Wethersfield in a decisive victory in the consolation game—47 to 19. The tournament had a great variety of color this year and was a colossal success, both financially and in entertainment for the crowds. 55 BASKETBALL Games Field Free Personal Total Average Points Played • Goals Throws Fouls Points per Game Miller 19 131 64 26 327 17.2 Wilkins 16 2-1 29 21 77 4.8 McClellan 19 32 8 21 72 3.8 Pendarvis 18 29 13 34 71 3.9 Goodwin 18 27 16 29 70 3.8 Shinn 19 17 19 38 52 2.7 Durbin 6 3 5 6 15 2.6 BLACKHAWK CONFERENCE STANDINGS Won Lost Pet.

Two lettermen returned from last year's successful team. These two men, Captain Bob Shinn and center, Dave Miller, combined with such stalwarts from last year's reserves as Warren Wilkins, Jim Durbin, Lefty McClellan, Bob Pendarvis, and Bob Goodwin, quickly developed into a very versatile aggrwegation. Winning their first two games by top-heavy scores, the Trojans gave notice that they again were contenders fof. the coveted Blackhawk crown. They next swept through the Toulon Holiday Tournament, this being the first Trojan quintet to accomplish this since the origin of the tourney. Their only two defeats during the regular season came from the hands of Wyoming and La Fayette. These two defeats were avenged later, however, in return games. Thus, again did Toulon win the Conference championship, winning seven games and losing one. Other laurels gained by the team were a second place in the Regional Tournament at Kewanee and the honor of playing in the Sectional Tourney at Pekin. Lettermen returning for next year’s five are Goodwin, Durbin, McClellan, and Pendarvis. These dependables should prove a fine bulwark for another splendid team at Toulon High School. TRACK Among the thirty-five track aspirants reporting to Coach Metzger following their triumphant basketball season, were five lettermen: Jim Durbin, sprinter; Dutch” Bruning, sprinter and pole vaulter; Roy Wasson, broad jumper and high jumper; Dave Miller, hurdler and high jumper; and Bob Shinn, weight man. The five boys, expected to form the nucleus for a versatile track team, elected as their Captain, Robert Dutch Bruning, who is performing on the cinders for his third and last year. In meets previous to this writing, the Trojans have lived up to everything expected of them. They first swept through the Peoria Manual Indoor Meet and April 16 won the Geneseo Relays from a stern field of competition. In both meets, Trojan individuals have set many new marks. At Peoria, Dave Miller set marks in the 40-yard high and low hurdlers and in the high jump, while Roy Wasson broke the broad jump record. At Geneseo, the low hurdle relay team cracked the old record by nearly two seconds. At this same meet, Miller and Wasson again broke records in the high jump and broad jump respectively. Much must be said of the fine balance of the Trojan team. They have two great distance runners in Reed and Newman. The weights are capably handled by Shinn, Miller, Coakley, Wilkinson, and Bob Pendarvis. Jumpers include Miller, Wasson, and Bruning. The sprinters are Bruning, Durbin and a couple of promising Sophomores, Lewis and D. Berfield. Middle distance men include Turnbull, Goodwin, and Durbin. Most of the above mentioned are upper class-men. Among the Freshmen and Sophomore who have shown great promise in the Fresh-Soph meets are: Lewis, Berfield, sprinters; Dustin, R. Miller, Bennett, jumpers; Jackson, Dustin, hurdlers; Hedges, Silliman, and Colgan, distance men; and Jimmy Webster, Gerard and King, weight men. Following is the schedule of remaining meets: April 29—Stark County Meet. May 14—District Meet at Bradford. May 18—Blackhawk Conference Meet. May 21-31—State Meet at Champaign. BRADFORD RELAYS At the Bradford Relays we suffered a defeat which was not our due. The main cause of this defeat was our disqualification in the low hurdle shuttle relay. The reason for this disqualification, according to the judges, was that the man running third lap left his holes before being touched. Besides this, we had several other cases of bad luck during the day, such as bad baton passing in relays, poor starts, and minor injuries, which although not serious were a great handicap to our men. Although we did not get a single first, we got a number of seconds. Wasson was second in the broad jump, his jump being recorded at 21 feet 31 2 inches. He was beaten by Heller of Galesburg by % of an inch. Miller tied with three othei jumpers for second in the high jump. He also placed fourth in the high hurdles. Bruning placed second in the pole vault. The Frosh-Soph relay team, consisting of D. Berfield, Webster, Jackson, and Lewis, secured two seconds in the one and two lap Class B. relays. The varsity relay team was second and third in the two and one lap relays respectively. Our four lap relay team, made up of Durbin, Newman, Goodwin, and Turnbull, secured third in their event. Although we had men entered in the shot put, discus, javelin, and progressive relay we secured no points in them. Records were broken right and left all day. In Class B, Galva finished first with a narrow margin of one point over Toulon who was next in line. Galva's final tally was 53V2 f° Toulon 2 2. 7 FOOTBALL SQUAD Members: front row, left to right—Jim McGinn, Robert Shinn, Robert Bruning, Bill Lambert, Donald Coakley, Dave Miller, Joel Wright, Warren Wilkins, Donald Day, Roy Wasson, Jim Webster.

Those Health Charts!—and trying to remember to hand them in on Monday nights. You do belong, don't you? All but about eight girls in school joined when we had the class membership drive. (The Seniors won.) Good officers, too. President .............................Betty Cole Vice President ......................Jean Allison Secretary ...........................Velma Cobb Treasurer ...............Margaret Clare McManus Recorder .......................Frances Nicholson Remember the Hobo Hike? Forty-five disreputable looking bums with packs fastened over theii shoulders walked over three miles to the weiner roast. (The upper classmen had invited the Freshmen) . Did you go to Champaign to see the Illini beat Ohio? Mrs. Mahany and Mrs. Metzger filled their cars with G. A. A.-ers, cuz' all High School students were admitted free. They stayed for a show —what was that show about, Dorothy?—maybe Frank knows. Yes, and we were going to make Toulon a play day center, but because of the infantile paralysis epidemic, it didn’t happen. We had almost as much fun, though, with just our own bunch after school. Four teams, with Doris Gerard as assistant referee—volleyball, kick ball, relays—remember the human croquets? Team 1 won. Miss Durnin never did give them their balloons they earned for a prize! Sixty-five girls eating in the corridor— keen meal. (P. S. We ran out of pie and ice cream). How about funds? Well, we reduced the dues to 25 cents a year because of the increased membership. At football games we sold coffee and doughnuts. Violet and Joan ought to be given a special vote of thanks since they did the most of the work. Hot dogs sold well the day of the Galva game, for it was really cold. About our best way to get money, though, was by holding cake walks at basketball games. When some outside program presents itself we sometimes sponsor it. Guess we cleared a couple of dollars on Daniels the Magician. Like to get up early? Well, not exactly early, but we had fun at the ten o'clock breakfast that we had at school. We got points, too, for volleyball and kick ball. Speaking of points, swimming is a good way to make them. We rented the pool in Kewanee twice a month, though usually not more than ten girls went. Tumbling helps those points too, especially after we organized classes at noon. Over twenty girls wait until 12:30 on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays to eat their lunch. Tumbling? I wonder why ? And don't forget the inter-class Volleyball Tournament that we have every fall. This year the Freshmen played the Juniors while the Sophomores struggled with the Seniors. The Freshmen were defeated by a score of 21-8, while the Seniors downed the Sophomores by a score of 21-13. The two winners played for the Championship and the Juniors were nipped by the Seniors with a score of 21-19. By doing this the Seniors won the trophy (that unpretentious looking ball in the trophy case). It takes three successive victories for one class to keep it. Then came the Homecoming Parade. Of course we had a float—a truck filled with girls singing school songs. People knew they had pep even if they couldn't see the heads through the G. A. A. letters. G. A. A. Christmas!—and we had our annual party. This year we played Court Whist in the gym. Helen Chapman got the prize. Then after a pot luck meal, each girl had to write a four-line poem about G. A. A. Cute prize Martha Holmes got, wasn't it? Here are three of the poems by Martha, and Jean Allison: The G. A. A. girls are loyal and true, They give their best in all they do; These happy club girls are sincere and true blue. I want one for Christmas; now realty don’t you? We're the girls of the G. A. A. We’re up to something every day We play games of every sort, And every girl’s a dandy sport. The G. A. A. girls are cute and sweet, They're real pals to all they meet. These peppy girls know no defeat; To go with them is really a treat. What all did we do the second semester? Oh sure! Remember the cake walks at the basketball games? We really should thank our mothers for the cakes and all the fans for their dimes. We made about S25.00. Some task, wasn’t it, Dorothy Dustin, soliciting the cakes? Then in February we were given the candy sales at noon in the assembly to help our finances. Cakes, candy, and dish cloths! Dish Clothes? And we sold them too; in fact, we canvassed the town, for we were trying to earn money for our trip. Ask Helen Armstrong how we came out. Were you at the Volleyball game on January 25, the night the Alumni played our Varsity team? Seniors vs. Juniors. Third time these teams played, and the Senior team won again, 30-23. Members of the Senior team were: Helen Goodwin, Ruth Shearer, Mary Clark, Martha Johnson, Lucy Heaton, Velma Cobb, Janet Downend, and Elaine Armstrong. Didn’t the Tumblers look cute that night with their yellow suits and colored balloons? How else did we make points? Roller skating in Wyoming! Lots of fun! How about the Big Apple on skates? Then the Basketball Tournament in April—all those practices to be elegible for the team! See, the Champions' picture is on the G. A. A. snap page with the Volleyball winners. We had a Ping Pong Tournament, too, in March. Martha Holmes won the singles, and she and Betty Cole retained their doubles championship. Let’s see! Finances began to worry us again, so Margaret Clare was made chairman of the Bake Sale down at Sundquist's. $11.18 nearer a trip. Spring—didn’t it feel good to have gym outside? Points! More efforts for that letter: Roller skating, jumping, bicycling, kittenball, badminton. How about a run around the track before lunch, Fuzzy and Clarky? And, Tubby, did you really ride your bike to school? Guess we have four big events before school closes: the stand at the Blackhawk meet (hope we do as well as we did last year at the County Meet, for we cleared S25.00), Play Day, the Adamless dance, and the trip. Where shall we go? Chicago, Turkey Run, Wild Cats’ Den? Who knows? But we do know about Derby Day. Here’s a copy of the invitation we sent to the girls in Chilli-cothe, Dunlap, Wethersfield, Kewanee, La Fayette, Princeville, Sparland, and Wyoming: It’s coming! The 21st of May! bX G. A. A. Then we’re holding our Derby Day. Eight girls from your school are invited to come; They're bound to have lots of fun. Nine-thirty to two-thirty is the time, There’ll be horses of every kind. Pompoon, Sea Biscuit, and Man of War, Of course there'll be a great many more. So come if you can. Try to, please. And to T. T. H. S. we’ll give yon the keys. We expect about one hundred girls, and we’re going to name the teams for some outstanding horse, say Stagehand, for example. Then instead of calling the games just volleyball or kick ball, we shall call them well known races like Santa Anita Handicap or the Kentucky Derby. Then to carry out the idea of a Derby: when the girls register, they will be assigned to their stables (locker-room) ; in their stalls they'll elect their jockey for a leader. Hope we’re on the winning team, for each of them will receive a miniature wooden horseshoe covered with flowers. An Adamless dance ought to be fun. The Home-Ec. and G. A. A. are inviting all the girls’ mothers on May 24; the girls are to come in couples with a prize being given to the best-looking couple. G. A. A. letters will be awarded. Say! I’ll see you later! I'd better see how many points I have, because I sure do want that letter, after having to sacrifice all those candy bars and pork tenderloins! AWARDS In the Spring of ’37, the following people were granted these awards: The State Emblem (our highest award for which 2000 points are needed) was awarded to Doris Gerard. Five I s (requiring 1600 points) were awarded to Eileen Nicholson, Mary Ann Berfield, Janet Downend, Ruth Shearer, and Helen Armstrong. Six T's (requiring 1200 points) were earned by Lucy Heaton, Betty Cole, Velma Cobb, Martha Johnson, Helen Newman, and Frances Nicholson. Numerals (requiring 600 points) were earned by Frances Green, Dorothy Brian, Etta Marie Crow, Ruth Walker, Margaret Clare McManus, Violet Belcner, and Lois Claybaugh. G. A. A. PLEDGE I promise to uphold the ideals of the Girts’ Athletic Association, By promising interest in Athletics and the out of doors; By living so that I may be healthy and strong; By making good sportsmanship a constant factor in my conduct. 3 GIRLS' ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION Members: first row, left to right—Miss Durnin, Maxine Durbin, Helen DeBord, Lucille Heaton, Helen Reamer, Jean McManus, Betty Cole, Roberta Pendarvis, Lura Church, Dorothy Brian.

After a program furnished by the Freshmen, they were asked to line up against the east wall of the gymnasium, remove their shoes and place them in the center of the floor. Following John McRell’s harmonica solo and Dale Eckley’s mandolin numbers, these two were free to recover their shoes. Doris Coakley demonstrated her ability to speak in her refusal to sing with Quentin House. A few of the members were given airplane rides, followed by a mad scramble for shoes. The remainder of the evening was spent in dancing, with music furnished by the Nickelodian. The first party was a great success, and everyone reported a good time. G. A. A. PARTY Our next all school party was given by the G. A. A. and everyone came dressed as a kid. Kiddie cars, scooters, and tricycles raced across the gym floor carrying once dignified high school students. My, but the dresses were short! The girls had their hair in pig-tails with huge bright-colored bows while the boys wore knee-pants and middies. All day suckers covered with blue paper dolls served as favors. The evening was spent dancing, with music furnished by the Nickelodian. Velma Cobb won the prize for the most kiddish outfit. And did we ever have fun! ATHLETIC BANQUET In honor of our football team's 20 Victories, a banquet was given on December 10. The Swing Stylists furnished music for entertainment while the fans arrived. Everyone found a place to sit. Those seated at the speaker's table were: Football boys. Coach Metzger, Toastmaster Armstrong, Doctor O’Keefe, Mr. Wilkins, and Coach Eliot. Following the delicious meal served by the Home Economics girls, the Swing Stylists gave a few more numbers. The Quartet of Western State Teachers College gave a few selections, and a cornet and trombone duet was played by Mr. Fuller and Mr. Arganbright. Coach Eliot was introduced, and gave a very interesting talk. He stressed the will power to do anything one sets out to do. Each Senior of the squad said his farewell. Warren Wilkins presented gifts to Coach Metzger and Dr. O'Keefe in appreciation for what each had done for the team. Captain Dave Miller announced the Captain of next year—Roy Wasson. Coach presented 17 large letters and 10 small awards to the squad. In closing, Mr. Eliot's movies of the Notre Dame, Minnesota and Northwestern games with the University of Illinois were shown by Mr. Wyckoff. Our cheer leaders, Martha Johnson and Betty Cole, were later awarded letters for their activity and work during the football season. 73 TOLO CARNIVAL The annual Tolo Carnival, sponsored by the Seniors to help defray the expenses in publishing their year book, the Tolo,” was held Friday, February the twenty-fifth. The program, consisting of various musical numbers and stunts given by each of the four classes, got under way with the Senior skit of the Charlie McCarthy hour: Charlie, Bernard Shults; Edgar Bergen, Warren Wilkins; Don Ameche, Bob Shinn; The Stroud twins, Dale Fell and Don Day; the Spanish bull-fighter, Helen Goodwin; the bull, ? ? ? ? ? This was followed by three numbers from the girls’ sextet. The Sophomores next displayed theii talent in a clever Medicine Show,” with Dudley Berfield, Dorothy Brain, Jean Allison, Forrest Lewis, Roy Hartley, George Gerard, Hugh Carter Dale Smith, Bob Warren, and Floyd Rashid taking part and endeavoring to sell the potent tonic absolutely guaranteed to cure pimples, bunions, spring fever, and dandruff.” Nellie and Catherine Winn, accompanied by Martha Holmes, rendered two pleasing vocal numbers. The Juniors then presented as their stunt A Modern Version of Cinderella,” which kept the audience in gales of laughter. Parts were played by Dale Addis as Cinderella; Bob Pendarvis, Don Coakley, and Wayne Anderson as the stepmother and step-sisters; Norman Hartley as the fairy godmother; Dean Winans as the prince, and Martin Chase as the Messenger. The girls’ tumbling class gave an exhibition of their work, followed by the Freshman stunt. Supposedly mystic feats, demonstrating chemical principles, were performed by the magician, Milan Berfield, assisted by Roberta Pendarvis and Louise Hand. The coronation ceremony crowning the carnival Queen and King followed. Because the Freshmen had sold the most Carnival tickets prior to the event, they were privileged to choose the couple to preside over the festivities, and the honored two— Roberta Pendarvis and Milan Berfield — were crowned with appropriate ceremonies. As the climax of the evening, the winners of the class stunts were named. The Juniors received the first prize of two dollars, and the Sophomores were awarded one dollar for second place. The floor was then cleared for dancing to the music of Doc Hunt's orchestra. A Bingo game, a cake walk, and other games proved entertaining and profitable during he course of the evening. The Seniors appreciated the generous cooperation of the school and the community in making the Carnival a huge success. JUNIOR-SENIOR RECEPTION At the time that the Tolo goes to press the plans for the Junior-Senior Reception, scheduled for May 19, are not complete. It is predicted that it will be the greatest success in the history of the institution. The gym will be decorated in the form of a garden party. Pastel colors will be used and flower favors be provided for each guest. In the center of the gym will be a formal garden. The guests will be seated in groups of four, and those who are too shy to secure their own dates will be supplied partners by a solicitous Junior committee. The gym will be softly lighted by a silvery moon and by the colored bulbs hidden in the vine-covered picket-fence enclosing the garden. The program will consist of the regular toast program, after which we will dance to the delightful strains of a well-known orchestra. Committee Chairmen are: Tables, Helen Reamer; Table Construction, Robert Addis; Dance, Margaret Clare McManus; Program, Bill Lambert; Gym Decoration, Betty Cole; and Table Decoration, Betty Sturgeon. 7V • Name • Pastime • Ambition • Likely to be Donald Coakley Gabbing News reporter Insurance Salesman Helen Reamer Giggling Switch board operator Matron of Orphanage Stuart Jackson Driving Aviator City Fire Marshal Lura Church Worrying To live in Toulon Minister’s Wife Patricia Cover Increasing her vocabulary Society matron Immigration Matron on Ellis Island Dudley Berfield Making trouble Super salesman Junk dealer M.

Old New York town she did approach; Her passengers were glad To see the buildings tall and large, None thought they'd soon be sad. Because of a storm, she circled wide, For hours numbering two, But that they might not see tomorrow, Her passengers never knew. Then finally when the storm died down, She sought her place of rest. Her landing crew was ready then— Picked men, they were the best. Like some great bird, she settled down; Her landing ropes were thrown, When at her bow appeared a flame, And asunder, she was blown. Yes, her hydrogen exploded, And asunder she was blown. Some jumped too soon and they were crushed: To others the captain turned. At this brave work, the captain died, But many he had saved. His death was aviation's loss; Many dangers he had braved. 7 he once proud airship was no more; She lay crushed on the ground, And as to tvhat did cause her wreck, No man has ever found. —Martin Chask Miss Butcher: Dean Pyle, what was the Epicurean philosophy?

He organized the protection racket, And there wasn't a cop who could crack it; When a sucker couldn't be sold A! fixed him nith a six foot pole.

The methods of chewing this gum vary according to the character and personality of the chewer. These different types of gum chewers may be readily recognized. The fourth class consists of the erratic or neurotic chewers. These people chew violently for varying lengths of time and then may merely allow the gum to lie motionless in their mouths for hours. They are said by many to be the most interesting roup, as one never knows when or where they will chew. The first type is the energetic or forcible chewer. People in this class chew their gum by moving their jaws very rapidly up and down. This process goes on for from four to ten hours at a time, and, in some extreme cases, the chewers are known to work in their sleep, thus chewing twenty-four hours a day. This, of course, requires much refueling of the gum supply. The second class is the cracking or loud report group. The people in this group testify that the art of cracking one’s gum requires much more skill than mere chewing, and maybe very highly developed. However, the ordinary individual can become an expert cracker in from one to three months. The third class is the polite or silent chewer. These people chew with a slight vertical motion, which results in little noise. This type of chewing is recommended for those who come in frequent contact with school teachers and aged persons. Fifth, comes the stretches or pullers. These people often pull their gum from their mouths for several feet and return it successfully. There is much danger in this, however, for, unless one is an expert, the gum often becomes entangled in the hair and clothing of the chewer. Next, we have the economic or Scottish type. These chewers use only a half stick of gum at a time, thus saving money and giving that feeling of economizing that is so well loved. Last, we have the clandestine or furtive chewers. This group is made up of many proud folks who secretly enjoy chewing gum, but think it is undignified. They may be seen slinking around corners and in private places, chewing gum. They say that the most effective method of quickly disposing of the gum when anyone approaches is to stick it behind their ear. Of course, if this is impossible, the gum can always l e swallowed. n —Martha Holmes THE FIRST THANKSGIVING DAY Sixteen twenty was the year The Pilgrims landed here, Seeking freedom from all cares, And happiness and cheer. Cabins rude were quickly built, Churches, homes, and all; Many labored hard and long During the early fall. Many a hardship was endured For food and shelter dear; Sickness and famine swept the group, Such was their first year. When the next November came, Great the harvest seemed— Stalks of corn so tall and slim; Nearby, pumpkins gleamed. Thanks were given at the feast; Happiness was complete; To the feast the Indians came, Their pale-faced friends to meet. From the celebration came Our custom known today, Of giving thanks to God above, On Thanksgiving Day. —Margaret Clare McManus LIFE AND LOVES OF FILBERT THE FRESHMAN (Pages from his diary) September 1— Started to high school today.

Haggard, trembling, heavy-eyed, No. 31258 paced the little area within the narrow confines of his cage-like cell—his home for the past ten months. At each slight noise, whether real or the product of his distorted imagination, be rushed to the door of the cell. Gripping the bars so tightly that his knuckles showed white, and shrieking hideously, he peered out into the corridor—still empty. After his spasm passed, he hung there limply for a moment, then turned and began again his futile pacing. Once he threw himself down on his cot and lay there, sobbing—trying to pray . . . Unless it came soon—his reprieve—it would be too late. If he were to escape hanging—he shud- dered, thinking of the awful moment, imagining the noose already around his neck—the reprieve must come within this hour. Surely it would come, wouldn't it? Of course it would—he mustn't get panicky—only it must come soon! In an hour they would drag him slowly, dreadfully down that empty hall, up those echoing stairs into that room from which he never would return! He remained on the cot, immobile, not aware of the passage of time, until a faint click told him that it was all over—the guards, with no pity in their eyes, were opening his door to lead him to his doom. —Ruth Shearer WRITER Slowly and laboriously he traced the figures outlined by the instructor. So this was the way they taught one to write. It was odd, he thought, as he saw his reflected image in the glass windows of the book case, that such a genius with his fitness should now be learning the art of writing. Life begins at forty. So it would for him, when at thirty-four, he could learn this high falutin' ” business and his work would soon be before the eyes of the nation. They laughed at him for his foolish ideas because he couldn't even write yet, but he had talent and was confident. Push, pull, push, pull—this was precisely what he remembered of his first years of school, having lost out long ago. Practice makes perfect. Well, he didn't care for this practice; he wanted the real stuff. He practiced a few ovals and then proceeded to trace and retrace the numerals set before him as examples. It was tiresome and childish—he must learn, though. He had ideas that went beyond the mere alphabet if only he could master it. It was his chance to graduate from it all if now he could only write it perfectly. He looked at the chart he had received—that practice did mean a lot. He knew perfectly what to do and took off. Those letters did look odd with the whole chart written backwards. Backwards—as the expert stunt pilot saw his chart of skywriting. He flew a perfect oval. He picked the rudder, pulled the smoke release lever, pushed it back and completed a figure eight. It gave him a thrill as he wrote the words and thought of the whole city below who now had already seen his work. —Warrf.n Wilkins Honor Roll LAST SEMESTER—1936-37 FIRST SEMESTER—1937-38 SENIORS Alice Bennett _A A- A- A- A- Mary Ann Berfield A A- A A A Ben Dewey I l 1 I Melvin Fox A- A- A- B Robert Leigh A- A- A- A- Herbert Roark A- A- B A- Francis Scott A A A- A JUNIORS Dorothy Appenheimer A- A- A- A- Betty Appenheimer A- A B A Helen Goodwin A- A- B A Ruth Shearer A A A B Francis Turnbull A- A A- B Warren Wilkins B A- A- A Newton Wilkinson A- A- A- A- SOPHOMORES Dale Addis 1 Jack Chase A- B A- A Martin Chase B A- A- A Betty Cole A- A- A A Martha Holmes A- A- A A- Margaret Clare McManus A A A A Geraldine Murray A A A A Frances Nicholson ... 1 1 l I Elnora Walker A- A- A- A- FRESHMEN Helen Ballentine A- I i i Dorothy Brian A AAA Margaret Edlin A AAA- Marita Egbert A A- B A- Frances Green A A A- B Lester McClellan A A- A- A- SENIORS Betty Appenheimer A A A- A Dorothy Appenheimer A- A- 1 l Elaine Armstrong A A- A- B Janet Armstrong A A- B A Jean Baker A- A A- A Mary Clark A A A- A Ruth Shearer A A AAA Lester Pierson _ A- A- B A Mary Turnbull B 1 1 Warren Wilkins — A A- A A Newton Wilkins A A- A A JUNIORS Dale Addis .............A A- A A Betty Cole..............A- A- A A Martha Holmes ..........A- A- A- A Margaret Clare McManus .
