(Signed) Jim McGinn OUR ANDERSON He's not a football hero; Has no use for basketball; At the manly art of boxing, He doesn’t rate at all. He couldn't pitch a baseball, He’d never make the crew, But still he rates with all the girts Because he pitches woo. Mr. Beier: Explain a vacuum.” Carl Lehman: I can't put it in words but I have it in my head.” Miss Qugiley: What are you laughing at?” Dean Winans: I just had a thought.” Miss Qugiley: Keep on laughing then because its seldom you entertain Thought.' LITTLE RED HEAD There's a pretty little red head, Who has me in a whirl; I’ve never been so taken, By any other girl. Her brown eyes are like the autumn On a moonlit summer night, And her smile just makes me tremble, When I kiss her cheeck goodnight. Senior Class History We entered school in ’35, Timid, quiet and shy, We ran up and down the hall— The right room passing by. Roy Wasson was made our president, A lad of brawn and brain; Lura Church assisted him; Her every aid a gain. Martha Holmes was treasurer, And kept the minutes, too. The other members did their bit, To Toulon High School true. Our sponsors helped thru-out the year— Mr. Wilkins he was one; Tor her help, Miss Butcher we thank. To them we owe our fun. The boys in sports were ever good, Both in track and basketball. The girls were quite victorious In playing volley ball. Our Sophomore Class was quite lively. Our officers were swell fames Durbin was our president, Who served us very well. Frances Nicholson was vice president, Liked by me and you. Leonard White was made treasurer, And secretary too. Mr. Wycoff led us in our work; Miss Butcher helped again. They guided ns through thick and thin— Thru fair weather and thru rain. Third year Fran Nicholson at the head, Doing her very best. Margaret Clare McManus was her help, To guard our little nest. Robert Pendarvis was treasurer— He kept the money, See? Elnora Walker kept the minutes, For she was secretary. Miss Chase, our able sponsor, helped The coming prom to plan. Miss Durnin was another aid; Mr. Metzger was the man. Our class play was a huge success— It pleased each spectator. Mama's Baby Boy” the name, you know Miss Butcher was our director. Our banquet scene a flower garden; The guests all bright and gay, To the music of the Swing Stylists, Began to swing and sway. In the fall of thirty-eight, We entered the open door. The last year at Toulon High; Here we’ll come no more. Bob Goodwin, a lad both bright and gay Class president was he; Betty Cole was made vice-president, So full of energy. Our secretary was bright young lass— Etta Marie Crow her name; Roy Wasson was made treasurer— His part, he played the game. Our sponsors had to work quite hard: Miss Fisher did her part. Mr. Wetzel and Mr. Earles we thank From the bottom of our heart. The cast presented to the public, A three-act-mystery drama— The Phantom Bells,” a luring title, Brought both Dad and Mama. We, the class of thirty-nine, Present the annual Tolo, With little Angus as our theme— We worked in flock and solo. And now comes time for ns to part; The leaving we regret. Together we have been four years. It seems that we’ve just met. DALE ADDIS I don't hate girls, but I lack the nerve. Glee Club, 1 ; Football. 3. 1 . Basketball 3 ; Track Manager, 1. 2; Secretary F.

Trickle Cheer Leaders—Betty Cole, Roberta Pendarvis and Dale Smith 3 The Football Season The Trojans started the season of 1938 by meeting Walnut on their own field. The battle cry sung by our school before the game was, cracjk that Walnut!” However, during the first half, this cry failed to inspire our lads to victor)'. Neverthless, in the last halt, the Trojan spirit prevailed and the game ended in our first tie score after twenty straight victories. On the following Friday, the Geese journeyed to Toulon. The game turned out to be a punting dual and neither team was able to enjoy a victory, the score being 0-0. Our next game was with Chillicothe where Toulon enjoyed their second victory of the year. After our victory over Chilli,” the inspired Trojans went to Woodruff. There the odds were great against them and they were heavily outweighed but the Trojans rolled in the second half and overcame a 19 point lead to come out with a 19-19 tie. When Geneseo came to Toulon, the Trojans again enjoyed the spoils of victory in a win over Geneseo of 13 to 6. The following week, the Bradford team invaded Toulon. Again the Trojans came through with a smashing victory which made a successful Homecoming for Toulon. The next obstacle on our schedule was Wyoming. Here it was undecided as to the nature of the game—whether a football game was being played or a track meet was being staged. The last game of our season was with Galva. After 27 straight victories, the Trojans fell before the onc!aught of the Galva Wild Cats for the first time in three years. SUPPORT A team that uim by playing hard, A team that work together; Toulon has a team like that, That wins in any weather. To have a team that beats the best, By men it must be backed : hi Mr. Wetzel, who tops the list, Loyalty has never lacked. The man who led the Freshman team; Assistant Coach he teas, A few more years and then you'll see Beiser's team begin to buzz. Upon the roll of honor next, We see the name of Craig; Successor to our Doc O’Keefe, For no better we could beg. —Dali: Addis Captain Roy Wasson—Roy was our chief ground gainer and scorer. His deceptive running, fine passes, and long punts were outstanding. Along with these abilities, he could tackle with a degree of accuracy that very few players posssess. These qualities combined to make him a triple-threat man on the field. Jim Webster—Though small and not showy Jim was a dependable player all season. As Captain of next year’s team, he will be a stand-out” in his department. Bill Pendarvis—One of the most improved players on the squad. His ability to block and plunge made him an important factor in the backfield. Bob Goodwin—Once recovered from his early injuries, Bob handled his position in tine style. His pass receiving was a strong point in our offense. Roy Miller—A big rangy boy with plenty of ambition to do something. With the two years experience he has now had, he should be an important man in next year's eleven. Don Coakley—Key man in our team. He backed up the line flawlessly and made many tine tackles. On offense, he always provided excellent interference for the ball carriers. Bill Lambert—His love of the game and hard work made him a truly dependable man. His many fine tackles helped our defense cause immensely. Wilbur Dustirff— Dusty,” as he is known to his team-mates, though not flashy was in the game every second of the time. He took care of everything that came his way in fine style. Dale Addis—His tall lanky stature together with a lot of determination, made him one of the most improved players in the squad. Relentlessly he hit the opposition to give both offense and defense added strength. Bob Addis—Big and aggressive, Bob broke up many running plays that came his way. His blocking and charging at offense afforded many opportunities for gains by the back fields. Jim McGinn—Jim is a player of few words but his determination and fine spirit in doing the things assigned to bim made him a fine end. Sam King—When the time came that Sam was needed to play end, he proved that he was ready and determined to make good and did. Milan Berfield—An end who shows a lot of promise of developing into a fine player. We expect him to hit his stride and play fine football next year.

He will be backed by Roger Miller and Raymond Bennett whose services on the varsity were outstanding this year. John Addis, an outstanding Freshman player, and James Webster, a promising Junior player, show signs of being main-stays on our team next year. TRACK Among the thirty-seven men reporting for track to Coach Metzger were six letter-men: Roy Wasson, high jumper and broad jumper; Bill Lambert, George Gerard, and Don Coakley are weight men; Jim Durbin, sprinter, and Warren Reed, distance man. These six boys formed the main stays of the track team and elected Warren Reed as their captain. In meets previous to this writing the Trojans have done good work.

Roy Wasson and Jim Durbin scored three firsts and one second for a total of eighteen points apiece. The Toulon Trojans turned in an outstanding performance at the Geneseo Relays by winning second place in the Class B. events. Roy Wasson won glory for himself and lor his school by turning the best individual performance of the day and thus receiving the achievement trophy.” He won first in the pole vault, high jump, and second in the broad jump. Other point winners for the Trojans were: Warren Reed, first in the mile; Don Coakley, first in the shot; and Bill Lambert, third in the shot. The Trojans displayed strength at the Bradford Relays on April 22, but their showing did not allow them to gain better than third place. The Trojans distance medley team composed of Winans, McGinn, Hedges and Reed won first in this event. In the Class B relays Toulo nwas second in the Frosh-Soph one-lap relay and fifth in the four-lap relay. Much must be said of the fine balance of the team. They have outstanding distance men in Reed, Hedges, McGinn and Winans. The leading sprinters are Durbin and Goodwin. The weights are capably handled by Coakley, Lambert and Gerard. The hurdles are taken by Wasson, Jackson, Milan, Berfield and Dustin. The jumpers are led by Wasson and Durbin. Besides those mentioned above there are many men who have done fine work and show great promise for next year. These include Wallace Smith, sprinter and hurdler; Miller, sprinter and jumper; King, hurdler; Colgan and Blakey, distance; and House, sprinter.

They elected Margaret Clare McManus for president, a capable one she was. She was well assisted by Jean Allison, vice president; Frances Nicholson, secretary; and Elnora Walker as treasurer. Of course at this meeting it was voted to pay dues—large sum of twenty-five cents a year. Oh, well, its worth it to belong to such a peppy club.” Flash! Flash! The Jitterbugs had a jaunt this fall. Note! You’d never know from the name of it that it ended up to be a weiner roast, would you? Too bad Miss Durnin was suffering with a sore throat, and Miss Main had to take care of us all alone.

More than 300 people were present to honor Coach Metzger and his Toulon Trojans. The toastmaster for the evening was Attorney F. B. Brian. Guest speaker for the evening was Robert C. Zuppke, head football coach of the University of Illinois. He has been coach there for the past 26 years and has turned out four national championship teams. Coach A. J. Robertson of Bradley, Mr. Metzger’s former coach, was also present. Roy Wasson, captain of this year's team, gave a short speech and introduced James Webster as the captain for the 1939-1940 team. Two musical selections were sung by Ray Olsen of Peoria. He is well known in this vicinity and sings over WMBD in Peoria. Other musical numbers were furnished by the Swing Stylists. Our cheer leaders got into action and gave two yells for the team. Thirteen major and twenty minor letters were awarded by Coach Metzger at the close of the program. The cheer leaders were also awarded letters for their fine work throughout the year. F. F. A. Banquet The F. F. A. Banquet was held February 2, 1939 for the benefit of the F. F. A. boys’ parents. The banquet is an annual affair in F. F. A. work, and 100 people attended. The banquet was served by the Home Economics Department. Toastmaster for the evening was Wilmer Pendarvis. The invocation was given by Reverend E. Fraser Bell and a welcome to the parents was given by John Addis. The response was given by John Flynn which was followed by a piano solo by Nellie Winn. Mr. Patton introduced the guests and Robert Duncan told of the accomplishments of the F. F. A. Music was furnished by the F. F. A. Strong Band and Wallace Smith gave a reading. Mr. Neeser played a violin solo which was followed by an address from the main speaker of the program, B. A. Romlin, assistant supervisor of Vocational Agriculture. Freshman All School Party The members of the Freshman class sponsored an all school party on December 3-The evening was spent in dancing and four leaf clovers were passed out which had numbers on them. This caused a scramble for partners. Music was furnished by the Nickelodian and refreshments were served by the hosts. Everyone reported a good time. Tolo Carnival The annual Tolo Carnival was held on February 25 in the High Scohol gymnasium. This event was sponsored by the Senior Class to help finance the Tolo, high school annual. The program starting at 7:30 consisted of a stunt presented by each class. The first stunt on the program was Things That Didn't Happen in 1938, presented by the Seniors. This was followed by a vocal duet, When Mother Nature Sings Her Lullaby,” by Frances Nicholson and Betty Cole, accompanied by Martha Holmes. The Juniors next presented a skit displaying their talent, entitled The Green Bomber from Hades. An accordian solo by Dorothy Brian preceded the Freshman stunt So What and the Seven Defectives.” Doris White played an accordian solo and Colette Cole sang a solo. The last number on the program was The Wonderful Machine of Dr. So-an-So, presented by the Sophomores. The coronation ceremony crowning the carnival Queen and King followed. The Freshmen won the honor of choosing the King and Queen by selling the geratest number of tickets Junior-Senior Reception At the time the Tolo goes to press the plans for the annual Junior-Senior Reception are incomplete. It is predicted that the reception will be a great success. The banquet will be held May 12 in the High School gymnasium. The following committees have been appointed by Jean Allison, the Junior Class President: Tables, Dorothy Dustin, Rose Thompson, Geraldine Gerard, Ruth Walker, Hugh Carter, John Flynn, Raymond Bennett, Dean Hedges, James Hotchkiss, Forrest Lewis; Dance, Dudley Berfield, Helen Ballentine, Wendell Henderson; Program, Marita Egbert, Lester McClellan, James Webster, Marjorie Cree, Donald Packard, Wilbur Dustin; Gym Decorations, Stuart Jackson, Harriet Kerns, Margaret Edlin, Bill Colgan, George Gerard, Bob Warren and Richard Peterson; Table Decoration, Dorothy Brian, Francis Green, Bevelyn Phillips, and Jean Anderson. in advance.

The procession marched to the stage where Doris and Johnny were crowned and sat upon their thrones. A corsage was presented to the Queen and a flower to the King. The Freshmen received first prize of $2 for the best stunt, and the Seniors received SI for second place. Following the coronation, bingo, baseball throwing, dart games and other entertainment rounded out the evening's enjoyment, followed by dancing with Kippy Carpenter’s orchestra of Sterling, furnishing the music.

Let us look in the room of Emma, who lives in the Eta Pi house on the campus of the State University. She has received a box of eats from home along with her laundry bag. Lily, her roommate, a fat good-natured sophomore, has plopped her rotund figure upon the bed. The room is overflowing with coeds, decked in gaudy pajamas which lend color to the scene. Some have their hair pinned up or rolled up on curlers and their night cream smeared on their faces. The girls are draped around the room in every convenient spot. Emma, besides trying to act the part of hostess, is frantically stuffing clothes in drawers so the munching moochers will not soil her clean lingerie. Some of the outstanding individuals in the room are Louise, the giggler, and Marian, propped against the foot of the bed, who cheerfully agrees with everyone on everything. Then there is Carman, an easy-going type, who hates to exert her mind more than necessary, and ends each phrase with you know. Annee, the student of the group, between bites explains tomorrow’s math problems to little doll-faced Vivian who is so busy with dates that she hasn't time to study. While eating, they discuss everything from their philosophy of life to what they will wear to the dance Saturday night and their dates, during which a few off-colored jokes are thrown in. Kay, the sophisticated Easterner, finishes smoking the remaining cigarette. The girls depart for their respective quarters chattering noisly as they saunter down the halls, rubbing an arm or leg that has gone to sleep, or a back that has been cramped due to reclining in such awkward positions. Betty Cole On Monday the classroom is quiet: On Friday the classroom's a riot. On Tuesday we awake; On Wednesday tee make Plans for the things teachers sigh at Helen Ballentine CLIPPED OR OUR DUDLEY One day when all was quiet: He started an awful riot. Head clipped clear— He looked quite queer, And he cannot deny it.

You're bound to improve. INTERLUDE IN THE LIFE OF A CLOCK The hall clock pauses in its rhythmic beat to bring forth one deep-throated note that declares the hour. Silently, the front door opens, pauses to admit a cautious figure and dosses even more silently. Now the figure moves forth in the dark, its noiseless advance punctuated only by an occasional creak of the floor. Groping hands guide the figure as it moves across the room. The stillness is broken momentarily as the figure collides with a misplaced chair, followed by an outburst of subdued expletives. The figure moves on down the hall to the stairs, the steps giving forth weird sounds as the figure moves hesitantly up. One shoe drops quietly to the floor followed by author. A coat, vest, tie and a pair of trousers find their way to a bedpost. Crisp sheets rustle in the dark. Again silence reigns—except for the clock whose perpetual rhythm seems to say, I know, I know, I know.” Sherman Packard Roy Wasson: What color bathing suit was she wearing? Bob Goodwin: I couldn't tell. She had her back turned. Bill Colgan: What would you say if I kissed you? Margaret Clare McManus: At Last! A man bought himself an old car, But the thing didn’t run very far; ”Twas a sad thing to see; Now he plays his harp front afar. Bill Colgan CORRIGAN Many a man has flown across The wide Atlantic Ocean, But only once has it been flown Without the slightest notion. In Dublin town he settled down, But thought it was the coast Now how did I gel here? asked he, Of that I cannot boast.” Many a cheer he teas to hear, And many fine meals he ate He was the man of the hour then Because of his old crate. Now this man’s name was Corrigan, A fact that you all know, And he flew the great Atlantic In a plane built long ago. Now this ballad has no tragedy, And it could stand correction, Yet when you roam, be sure that yon— Go in the right direction. —Bill Colgan Frank Wetzel: They laughed when I put my socks on wrong-side out, they didn't know my feet got hot, so I turned the hose on ’em. Bob Pendarvis: Why do they call Fuzzy appendix?” Superintendent of Nurses: Because all the doctors want to take her out. MY OLD CAR Now I've got a car that just will run; It’s an old and dilapidated thing, But I’ll bet that car was a good old boat, And I’ll bet it could make the air sing. The tvindshield’s out and the wheels are bent, The motor's warped and the tires are flat, But I bet one time yon couldn’t say that, For I bet she glided as smooth as a cat. The muffler’s off and the fender’s cracked, It roars and bangs like a pile of junk, And 1 think it's even hard to drive, So I bet it feels it’s almost sunk, But that old car is on the road, And I think it’ll be for awhile, So it’ll roar and putter and bang along, While the others ride in style. —Forrest Lewis I I M THE GERMAN SITUATION Not so many years ago, H tier began to reign. Rnting in a manner so, It gave some others pain. He first desired to get more land; lie chased the jews away. He ruled them with an iron hand, And still does to this day. Last fall he gave ns finite a scare; He thought he'd start a war. He told his country to prepare, And would his power soar. The cloud of trouble still hung high, The Nazis were so proud; Their flags of black did gaily fly Amidst the eager crowd. We had a man in Germany, Wilson was his name; He stayed in Berlin there to see, How great is Hitler’s sway. As time went on, we passed an act, To have no German trade. Our Congress little thought of tact, But rather thought of aid. Our minister was once more home To discuss the matter dearly. Our troubled minds no longer roam; We’re interested sincerely. Our problem that we have today Is whether men will fight, Or will the countries in some way Think of peace instead of spite. —Marraret Clare McManus AFTER VACATION It’s the day after, and all's well ’tis said, But I'd just as soon be home in bed— They think I’m bored and fretful, and that next I'd like nothing better than a teacher to vex. But they've got me wrong—I’m just drowsy and dreaming Of her in the moonlight—her face bright and beaming. This sounds rather silly—as if I’m out of my head. Say- -maybe I'd better go back to bed. —Dudley Berfield Nellie Winn: Sometimes you seem so manly anil at other times absurdly effeminate. Why is it? Leonard While: You see half of my ancestors were men and the other half women. Phyllis: Say, did you hear those two Seniors talking about their kith and kin? Lee: No, what did they say? Phyllis: He said, Can I kith you? and she said, You kin. Mr. Pattons, Is that a Jersey cow ? Dale Eckley: Don't know. I can't see her license. A HOBO CAMP !t was just a habo camp on a brisk autumn night. The fire in the center of the camp glowed brightly, reaching out its hungry arms as if trying to warm the hearts of those derelicts gathered around it. The wind bit with a bitter chill that perhaps matched the chill in the hearts of those men. Many of those grouped around the fire were dirty, sullen vagrants who had been driven from their homes by the cruel hand of fate. One, a professional tramp, who prided himself on his ability to obtain food, was spinning a long yarn about his adventures while hoboing. In the group that surrounded him, listening to his tale, was a young boy with an eager look upon his flushed face and an adventurous glint in his eye. This boy was a new recruit in the ceaseless stream of transients that flowed through this camp, and yet to meet the ghosts of hunger, cold and fear which haunted this and other such camps. Beside him stood a lanky boy of about the same age, an anemic looking boy, with a pallid, emaciated face. His shoulders drooped, as if the weight that had been placed upon them by fate was too great a load for such thin shoulders, his boy had met the world, yes, he had seen it in all its squalor and misery. Beside the boys sat older men, hardened by life and skilled in the art of wresting a living from fortune by begging and bumming. Their faces were lined and leathery, and as they swapped yarns, they spat into the fire with remarkable aim and great ferocity. In their midst sat an elderly man, whose dignity and pride seemed to hold him apart from the others. His snow white head was bowed, and in his kindly eyes was a sad, somewhat perplexed look. Perhaps tonight he dreamed of happier days and of the home and loved ones he had left behind him, whom he would see no more upon this earth. Men of ever)' rank, color, and creed, young and old, cheating and honest, lovable and despicable all were brought together this night. All had had hard luck; all sought the warmth and protection of the fire. Martha Holmes Oh, how I love to skate; Some day ’twill by my fate; At corners I spin My feet to win, But I am always late.

Sherman Packard SAP For a daily paper in Toulon. v A SENIOR SUNDAY I decided to go to Church this morning, but before I went, I put some Cole in the furnace. There was a New-man preaching that day. Mrs. Turnbull And-er-son were there and they were both dressed in White. The services had Hartley begun when the collection plate was passed and we put out Nichols-on the plate. When the service was over, Miss Murray left in her Packard. On my way home, I was looking at a large Crow when I fell down and hurt Mah-nee (Mahany.) Jim McGinn joined me and told me he had made a lot of Win-ans playing marbles and he plan to Winn more. He then saw a rabbit and started to Chase it. I heard a distant Trickle dnd, on further investigation, saw a brook with a large Sturgeon in it. Many people passed me going to their Holmes. When I entered my home, 1 turned on the radio and heard Bob Pendarvis’ orchestra playing the Lambert Walk. Phillip Murray and Violet Belcner are featured vocalists and are known as the Sweethearts of the Air-lanes.” I opened some of Me-Cans of fruit for dinner. I then looked in the paper to see what time the Addis boys' program Wass-on. 1 hear they are Ging-rich with their popular program which includes Lawrence Tickling as the Lone Ranger. Later I listened to the new children's program conducted by Johann Berglhold and Marjorie Flanagan. 1 then attended the special service at church that evening where Rev. James Durbin gave a stirring sermon. Special songs were sung by Margaret Clare McManus and Lois Claybaugh. Returning home I went to bed feeling my day had been well spent. Anonymous 23rd PSALM Mr. Wetzel is my teacher; I shall not want. He maketh me to study at all times; He leadeth me into deep subjects. He restorelh me with new assignments; He leadeth me through each day's tasks for my own sake. Yea, though I walk through the halls each day, I fear no evil, for others are with me; My books and pencils do not comfort me. He prepared a test for me when I least expect it; He anointeth my report card with red ink; It runneth over with in com pleles. I suppose dumbness and thoughtlessness Shall be with me all the days of my life, And I shall dwell in the Toulon High School forever. ?r We wish to express our appreciation to those firms who are represented in this advertising section of the TOLO.
