Konaauth Collars SENIOR CLASS HISTORY ☆ In the fall of '39 when the term commenced warily, Forty-five Buck Privates enlisted voluntarily. Private Young led us in a skirmish for knowledge; It was a battle royal to prepare for college. Marge Porter yielded assistance to Private Young; Betty Jane wrote of our glories unsung. Our battalion engaged in a ticket selling campaign— As a result Dean Young as Tolo King reigned. We came back from our furlough as Sergeants; Lee Turnbull commanded our regiments. Sergeant Lester did his part by giving aid. And helped the advancement of our brigade. For financial means each soldier was dunned. Frances Mock was collector of this helping fund. Marjorie Porter led in home defense; Consequently the cheering was immense. We came back to camp, ranked as a Lieutenant; Marge Porter leading, and we put lots in it. Dave Newman administered his help infallable; Other assistants were Ruth Hedges and Bill Turnbull. Bill also gloriously reigned as King one night. We entertained our superiors at the U. S. O. Everyone had fun at our South American show. As Captains we marched to camp in '42 And proudly we saluted the red, white, and blue. Ruth Hedges guided us in our final course; Bill Turnbull gave services to advance our force. Supporting the cause was a task, Fritz agreed. Dave Newman revealed his skill in the blitzkrieg. We've fought many battles, each ending victorious; And have paved the way for a life meritorious. —Ruth and Kate ☆ COLORS Blue and White FLOWER Red Carnation MOTTO Not on the heights but climbing SENIOR CLASS PROPHESY In the year of 1975, the garbage collectors of Toulon, ran across an old edition of The Stark County News, in which were the following newsy items. o“E,.N,rpgge THE stark county news Toulon, Stark County, Illinois, Wednesday, June 30, 1958 WEATHER FORECAST (Military Secret) Sixth Week of League Bowling Begins Monday List Results of Week's Game LADIES LEAGUE JACQUETS CREE'S B.

IT BURNED IN THE NIGHT filmed in Toulon at the scene of the ruins (Lucy White) A combination of song and dance talent, starring J. P. McManus and Char Welch, is to be shown on this screen Sunday and Monday. (Leigh Patton) WAY BACK WHEN 10 Years Ago This Week Lee Turnbull is the newly elected mayor of Toulon. His first act after taking the oath of office was to order all boulevards paved and kept in good condition. Marjorie Porter, prominent socialite, agreed whole-heartedly with the decree and also suggested that the use of spot lights in the said boulevards after 10:30 should be ruled out. Ardis Armstrong has just returned from a fishing trip to Niagara Falls with her prize catch —a fine 170 lb. bass spelled with a capital B . Doris Braden, Eleanore Talbert, and Ruthe Ellen Cree, have just left the United States on a bicycle trip through Canada. They like to refer to themselves as the Three Traveling Tramps of Toulon. Charles Hallock, for the past three years, has been employed with the Drastic Dare Devils, successor to Jimmy Lynch, and has just completed his seventy-first performance without a scratch to himself—but oooh! them cars! Bill Turnbull, known as the Rambling Wreck from Toulon Tech, has recently accepted a job as coach of the Toulon Trojans; however, during the summer he is employed as chief plumber at the DeBord Hardware Store. Dave Berkshire Newman recently sent a shipment of his prize Berkshire hogs to the King and Queen of England. It is rumored that even the pork chops, while in the pan, turned up their noses to the King and Queen. PERSONALS Marjorie Lee has just bought a chain of taxi-cabs. The cabs are all brand new Cadillac limousines. Calvin Fritz arrived from the East Tuesday to attend the annual Caverly Poland China Hog Sale Wednesday. We question his going to see the hogs. Virginia Heaton motored to Galva for reasons unknown. However, we all have a good idea. Margaret Thompson, Betty Jacquet, and Mary Patton wish to announce the opening of THE STARK COUNTY NEWS their new corporation. Margaret grows it, Betty sells it, and Mary takes care of the victims who eat '‘it . Orval Phillips and his orchestra have just completed an engagement at the famous Hub Ballroom at Edelstein. His second-to-none trumpeter is Dave Gelvin. Oval's drum boogie is considered second only to Gene Krupa's. Patty Liggett, of this city, has recently been employed in a dry cleaning establishment in Chicago. Bill Schmidt recently bought the famed “01' Log Inn. He says his only drawback is that he eats all the profit away. June Williamson, Eileen Heaton, and Margaret Peterson, the famous three girls from Toulon, have recently crashed the social world with three marriages, three divorces, three million (in alimony), all in three weeks. The people of Toulon will remember James McManus as the boy who used to escort us down the aisle of the Stark Theater. Well, Jim has sure advanced since then. He has advanced from usher, to doorman, to manager, to owner, to czar of the motion picture industry. He favors pictures starred by that dashing Romeo of the screen, Clifford Allen and June Hackwith, known by her fans as the three G girl . . . Gorgeous, Glamorous, and Gigantic. Kathryn Appenheimer has been working in Washington, D. C. lor the past six years as Presidential Secretary, and is still having High Old Times raising cain (cane) in her Victory Garden . . . which garden at times, includes all Washington, D. C. Marjorie Hall, the famous woman mortician, recently opened an embalming school here in Toulon. Betty Jane Hicks has finally had the fulfilment of her childhood dream. When last seen, she was riding on an elephant in India; she feels that if snakes can be charmed by flutes, why not by a trombone? Frances Mock was recently employed in the Barber Salon in New York. She received her apprenticeship from Leonard’s Barber Shop in Toulon. NOTICE Tom Stonier and Howard Leonard wish to announce the opening date of their new modernistic Auto garage.

Me William, Gilfillan, and also Cover, Were Captains till the war was over, June Cover was to lead our colors gay. Next, we were Sophomores—hip-hip-hooray! Our Captains for the second year, Proved themselves worthy without fear, They, House, Smith, and Murray, Handled things without a worry. Skelley and Patton were our Majors two, Who helped to lead our Ground Force Crew, Ruby and Donald completed the Victory Corps, To help the boys keep up the score. Our class has now advanced to the Air Corps, So we’re important all the more, The Pilots, Gilfillan, Lehman, and Matticks, Showed us just how to do the tricks. Keller, White, and Patterson, our Majors, three, Tried to fare us well and keep us free, Chuck was chosen as the Tolo King, And to us much honor he did bring. What you wish you were, that's your ideal. What people say you are, that’s your reputation. What you know you are, that's your character. —Selected SOPHOMORE CLASS HISTORY Listen friends while we tell you The history of fifty-three fighters true. In fighting, we proved too hard to beat And accomplished many a daring feat. As leaders we chose first class fighting men. Bob Grieve, Marilee, Jane, and Gwen. (Caverly). All the other battalions found our marksmen keen, For we won second at the homecoming And selected the Tolo Queen. Then came the Fall of 42 no heroes lost. We added two. Four strong leaders, Linker, Williamson, McManus and (Dean) Grieve, These high honors did receive. They were to lead the class in 42 and 43 And take us on to another victory. A battle royal we did fight To choose the Queen for Tolo night. The chosen one, our Mary Lou, Was given the honors justly due. To keep the Trojan spirit is our aim And bring to T. T. H. S. honors, victory and fame Our minds were made up for drill in August forty-two As across the campus we marched. Oh, there might have been a lew Of the fifty-four freshmen who cared not to brighten armor, But as drilling progressed feelings grew warmer. The Toulon training center had officers of strict mien Who drilled for life's battle with the aim of fighting clean. Captains Schmiedeskamp. Robinson, and Chamberlain were in charge of the fifty-four. Lieutenants Turner and Patton were chosen to lead the corps. Sergeants Armstrong and Lester were able ones assisting, V ith the help of the company there could be no resisting. When the freshmen go to battle there will be much smoke arising. The conquests we make will indeed be quite surprising. For we've girded on the armor of the Toulon fighting spirit. And the evils that are lurking will be vanquished and they fear it. FRESHMAN HISTORY A PAGE FROM A SOLDIER'S DIARY ☆ MONDAY— Dear Diary: One of my buddies left today with his company to go across the pond (ocean) for a little lap hunting. We are going to get some refugees (selectees) Wednesday, and also a new hashburner (cook). Hope we get a better hashburner (cook) as the chow (food) has been terrible Our dog show (foot inspection) was a success as far as I was concerned but one of my fellow yardbirds (private). Oscar, was made head bubble dancer (dishwasher) because of his over-indulgence of horizontal fatigue (sleep). Hope I get my sugar report (letter from girl friend) today. TUESDAY— Dear Dairy: Today was my blue Monday. A shave tail (second lieutenant) gigged (caught) me for not rolling up my flaps (talking). For that reason I have been using the Army banjo (shovel) and the General's car (wheelbarrow) today. Got my sugar report today, and a package of boodle (cakes, candies, sweets) from home which was enjoyed by all. WEDNESDAY— Dear Diary: The bunch of refugees (selectees) arrived today and are they dumb. They surely are green. I think I'll put the bite on one of them as the scandal sheet (payroll) doesn't come out till Friday. Got the new hashburner (cook) today, the battery acid (coffee) was good for a change even though the side arms (cream and sugar) were missing. The dough puncher (baker) outdid himself and prepared a good dessert THURSDAY— Dear Dairy This hitch (enlistment period) is getting tiresome and so I am going to apply lor homing device (furlough). Today must have been my lucky day because I am now sitting pretty. The street monkeys (members of the band) practiced today, corny as usual. Had a quiet day with my galvanized gelding (tank), cleaned it up and it's as shiny as a new dime. FRIDAY— Dear Diary: Did some gold bricking (duty shirking) today, had to show the army brat (officer's daughter) around. Took her for a stroll along the Gold Coast (officers' quarters). Uncle Sam threw his monthly party (pay day) and the scandal sheet (pay roll) was taken care of. Got week-end leave and with plenty of soft money (paper currency) I ought to do allright on the skirt patrol (searching for feminine companionship). SATURDAY— Dear Dairy: Got to town today on a popsicle (motorcycle). Blind flying (search for feminine companionship) was good today but had to stand in the sweat line (waiting line) for the double torture (double feature). My pal was not as successful and was shot down in flames (jilted by his girl). Hotels are full so it looks like I'll spin in (sleep) on a park bench. SUNDAY— Dear Diary: Had to have my swanks (best clothing) pressed as my spin (sleep) on the park bench was hard on them. Had a good dinner for a change. Had buzzard (chicken), grass (salad), good battery acid (coffee), and plenty of boodle (sweets) for free (no charge) at the U. S. O. Feel punk and may try to ride the sick book (pretend to be ill) tomorrow. Have to close now as I need to hit the hay.

Have you ever seen someone who was brimming over with ideas but for all that can be done, the ideas remain imbedded in his mind? At last the Such was the case when a certain group of illustrious students was solicited by their pedagogue to contribute a small amount of written material, only for the sake of taking up space for a publication that was due to blossom forth in all its journalistic pride (and prejudice). It was a gay, happy class-room until the matter of written editorials was suggested. Then all the inner emotions of brain-wracking students could be seen mirrored on sweet innocent faces. Numerous grave and ponderous questions reared in their heads. Will this work? How long should it be? I can't think of anything. Teacher, how long should it be? Again the patient teacher explained, and the knowledge seekers of Toulon High began to think. Ideas! Ideas! Ideas! Ideas then bounded into the minds of the students until each one became wild-eyed and began to think he would scream unless the incessant pressure ceased. Then the dam broke! The thoughts, the likes, the dislikes, and everything began to splatter on paper. The finished products were editorials all right, but by the drawn look of pain on the teacher's face, we began to think that perhaps we shouldn't have written it after all. My school day begins at nine o'clock. For my first class, industrial arts, I trapse down to Charles Robson's garage for two periods, and then I travel cross-country to the Congregational church for two assemblies. After being released from this church, 1 amble over to the Baptist church for a music lesson. For my next class, which is biology, 1 merely drag myself downstairs. If I am not careful, I will become too energetic and receive as a reward for my unappreciated activity, a theme. I then go rambling across the campus'' again to the Congregational church for two more assemblies and English. More trouble! Finally I drag myself up to the Methodist chuch for algebra. Thus from nine o'clock to four-thirty I wander from place to place trying to acquire a little knowledge. mental dam breaks, and ideas gush forth like water down the side of Mt. Etna.

Because of the war, annual contests and the Blackhawk Festival have been dispensed with and the work has consisted of regular class work. During the year the accompanist for the Boys' Chorus has been Jane Trimmer; for the Girls' Chorus, Mary Lou Webster; and for the Mixed Chorus, Jane Wilkinson. A selected group from the Mixed Chorus sang hymns at the World Day of Prayer Service held at the Baptist church on March 12. The choruses also sang selections at the second band benefit concert. BAND Because of the war, the musical activities have been somewhat curtailed. The band under the direction of Mr. Patterson has played on numerous occasions. Selections were played at the home football and basketball games. Forty-two members of the band accompanied the football team to Wyoming to aid in giving moral support to both the team and its followers. The band played for the Armistice Program held on the court house lawn. On October 3, the band attended the Victory Band Day in Peoria. Joan McManus was chosen as queen from our band. Three drum majorettes, Dorothy Baker, Ruby DeBord, and Julia Harper, led the band in the parade. In the fire of November 24, the band uniforms and several instruments burned. A band parents' organization was formed to replace this equipment. To help secure funds for the purchase of these uniforms, the band gave two benefit concerts. The Blackhawk Band Festival and the state band contests were not held this year because of current conditions.

The operetta, Words and Music, was written by Horswell and Lee and edited by Don Wilson. The story tells of the annual production of an operetta at Barton College. This has always been written by the head of the Dramatics Art Department. A calamity is apparent when it is discovered that the author is confined to her home with measles. Two of the sedate college deans offer their services; however, their feeling for the writing of the operetta is bound with their love for Shakespeare and Beethoven. Their secretaries assumed the responsibility and the results were hilarious. Those in the cast were: Mary Allen........... John Warren........... Samanthia Highnote.. Anastasius Longword.

At the initial meeting of the year, officers were chosen: Gene Harvey as president; Dean Clarke, vice president; Myron Laub, secretary; David Newman, treasurer; George Heaton, reporter; and Donald Grieve as watch-dog. They have capably led us through and helped to make our chapter the success that it is. Initiation of the Green Hands always brings much pleasure and excitement to the members and the evening of October 12 was no exception. The rites were duly observed and the Green Hands were made full-fledged F. F. A. members. As a victory garden is the patriotic project in which every American citizen who finds it possible wishes to engage, the organization decided to have a garden seed selling contest. At the close of the contest the losers entertained the winners. Because of food rationing, the annual F. F. A. banquet was not held, but the family night supper was held as planned. ☆ HOME ECONOMICS CLUB On October 1, 1942, the girls interested in the Toulon Happy Sallies Club gathered and elected the following officers: Virginia Heaton, president. Glenna Appenheimer, vice president; Olive Reed, secretary; Rosetta McIntosh, treasurer; and Joanne Wallace, reporter. The club motto is As you journey through life, sister, keep your eye upon the doughnut and not upon the hole. The club colors, blue and silver, were chosen. Initiation proved to be an interesting highlight of the club activities. The new and inexperienced members were asked to fulfill certain requirements before being admitted as a full-fledged member. The new officers were installed. Because of the fire on November twenty-fourth, we were not able to hold another meeting until February 1, 1943. at which time we decided to do our patriotic duty and sponsor a tin can drive. The captains, Mary Patton and Joanne Wallace, chose teams. The goal was to see which group could collect the most cans. The losing team honored the winners with a party. We are proud that our club is a member of the Illinois Home Economics Association. ☆ G. A. A. The G. A. A. was organized in September, 1942, with fifty-seven signed members. The officers, Nadine Lehman, president; Ruby DeBord, vice president; Marjorie Porter, secretary and treasurer; June Cover and Joan McManus, recorders, were chosen to lead us. Because of the many difficulties encountered throughout the year, it was impossible to carry out the planned G . A. A schedule, but the organization did sponsor an all school party on March 5. F. F.

JUNIOR CLASS PLAY '•DON'T BE BASHFUL' When Nancy Adams (Joyce O'Keefe), the cause of it all. discovers that their next door neighbors at the Pine Lake Summer Resort are the Hunt family, who are their neighbors back home in Belle City, she decides to capture Ken Hunt (Winston Murray). In an attempt to make Ken jealous, she hires Larry Marshall (Ross Gilfillan), a book salesman and fiance of Phyllis Burk (Jane Cover), a newspaper woman, to pose as Chester Thorn-berry, her devoted suitor. Mrs. Adams (Jane McWilliam) makes plans for Phyllis to interview Chester. Miss Green (Joanne Wallace) is arrested with the stolen picture that Nancy had sent back to the gift shop with her; Judy Hunt (Marilyn Matticks) almost poisons Larry with her home-made candy; Nancy mistakes Miss Terry (June Cover) for Judy's governess and tells her that Sam Hunt (Sherman White) is dangerously insane, and finally Officer Pluck (Gregory Rice J comes to the cottage to arrest the culprit. Then matters come to the climax Through the efforts of Walter Adams (John Robert McWilliam), the madhouse becomes calm, and above all—NANCY GETS HER MAN! As the play opens, the Mitchell family, a widowed mother (Frances Mock) and her two children. Ivy (Marjorie Porter) and Lawrence (Jim McManus), find themselves deeply in debt. While attempting to relieve this financial situation. Lawrence and his friend. Donald Clemens (Lee Turnbull), who is engaged to Ivy. discover a passage in a diary telling of a fortune hidden in the Mitchell house. The secret of the hiding place was inscribed in a green jade ring, held by Abi Levi. (Tom Stonier), a Jewish pawnbroker. Mr. and Mrs. Clemens (Orval Phillips and Virginia Heaton) offer Lawrence a sum of money to make their daughter Eloise (June Hackwith) fall in love with him and then he was to leave her. Finally. Lawrence accepts the offer because of his family's dire need for money Lawrence and Don obtained the ring, only to discover the treasure box was empty, for Mrs. Mitchell had purchased valuable bonds with the money. Dallas Anderson (Rosetta McIntosh), a newspaper reporter, threatened to publish the story Annabelle (Kathryn Appenheimer), the Mitchell's maid, furnished the comedy throughout.

Yea, though I ride through rain, thunder, and shells, I feel no fear, for thou art with me. Thy tanks and thy armored cars, they comfort me. Thou preparest a road before me in the presence of mine enemies; thou anointest my head with lubricating oil, my grease cup runneth over. Surely victory and honor shall follow me all the days of my life and I shall dwell in the Armored Force forever.

Coach Chamberlain did a fine job of organizing the inexperienced men into a football team. No games were won this season but our captain, Lee Turnbull, was given honorable mention as tackle for the all state team. After the first two or three games, Toulon was considered an easy victory by the members of the Blackhawk Conference, but close scores with Dunlap and Bradford changed the critics' minds. A hard played game with a 6-0 score with Galva showed that we were improving with experience. The fight with Wyoming, who was our last opponent, was considered the game of the season, and we had hoped for our first victory, but the game ended 6-0 in their favor. The game with Chillicothe was canceled because of transportation facilities. We have seven seniors leaving the squad this year, six of whom were varsity players. Seven varsity underclassmen who received their letters will be back in 1943 to avenge our defeats.

After his resignation, Mr. Patterson was elected by the Board of Education to carry on the regular basketball program. Because of the fire, we didn't get started until about six weeks after the other teams. The coach and the boys gave the best they had to the game in an earnest effort to overcome the difficulties with which they had to cope. We offer as proof the memorable game with LaFayette on February 16, which we won 30 to 27. We expect a real team from T. T. H. S. next year because only three of the first team, Dean Young, Gene Harvey, and Bill Turnbull, were seniors. Ross Gilfillan scored the most points despite the fact that he played but eleven games. Second in total points was Myron Laub. Our second team made an excellent showing by winning five of the twelve games played.
