We couldn't wait to get through school And sticking to the good old rule. But now we leave so many things, The day we chose our gold class rings--Our banquet, prom, our plays and such, We didn't know they'd mean so much. The times we carved our names on chairs. Reminding you we once sat there. The days we took semester tests, We tried so hard to do our best. Our football, track and basketball team--It's hard to say just what they mean. We didn't show it from the start, But there's no doubt what's in our hearts. It won't be long 'till we're on our own. But we shall always call this home. Wherever we are, whatever we do, Thanks.' T.

Under the direction of Miss Deer and Miss Frantz we chose the following officers: Bill Norvell, President; Mary Hausmann, Vice-President; Bob Stufflebcm, Secretary-Treasurer; Jim Hackett, Student Council Representative. One of the highlights of the year was our Class party on November 2. At the beginning of our Sophomore year,fifty-seven students registered. Officers were: Russell Stackhouse,President; Barbara Victor, Vice-President; Jean Ellis, Secretary-Treasurer; Rosie Marler, Student Council Representative, with Mr. Schrader and Llr3.

The following served as class officers: Barbara Victor, President; Russell Stack-house, Vice-President; Bill Norvell, Secretary-Treasurer; Ed Kleiss, Student Council Representative. With the help of our Class Advisers, Miss Hall and Miss Hyer,the Junior year proved to be quite an active one. We raised money for our Prom by selling stationery, and by sponsoring Ham and Turkey Raffles. Also we had a Bake and Rummage Sale, benefit Basketball Game and a Valentine Day Dance. On December 2, I9I+8, the class pla , Tattletale, was presented under the direction of Miss Hyer. On the evening of May 28, the Juniors entertained the Seniors at a wonderful Junior-Senior Prom. The tables and gym were decorated in pastel colors using a Chinese theme. On September 6, 19 9 fifty-two students returned to enroll for their last year of high school. Miss Sluss and Miss Magnusson served as our capable sponsors. The class was led by the following officers: Dennis Dietrich, President; Helen Seip, Vice-President; Bill Norvell, Secretary-Treasurer; Ed Kleiss, Student Council Representative, The Senior Play You Can’t Take It With You, successfully staged on April 19 was under the direction of Mrs. 3oyd.

The T Club sponsored the annual Horaecomlhgr dfcnce; •••••■• Jack Scott was awarded a letter in Basketball,. which raised our membership to 19. During the Basketball season, the T Club sponsored a concession stand at the games.. The Club advisers are Paul Doolittle and Don Wilt. Paul Shields BASKETBALL In the 1949-50 basketball season, there w- e a lot of close end exciting games. There were eight of these close games out of the twenty-three g°mes ’� e plpyed p11 year.The Warriors won four and lost four of these games. I will go over the eight gemes for you now. Our first one was with Areola when we nlayed them on our home floor. At the half we had held a slim one point lead 27-26. It was close throughout the entire game, but the Warriors finally won by two points 55-53. Cerro Gordo 53-54, We hated losing this game 8 lot because it was p conference game, pnd that put our conference standing at 1 win and ? losses, W had won the Areola game, and lost to Villa Grove and osr?c Gordo, Then the Windsor game ;e lost by a score of 49-52. We were ahead six points at the end of the first quarter, but in the second period the Windsor boys got hot and hit the nets for sixteen points to our eight, so at the half Windsor led by a score cf 23-SC. In the last two quarters the lead see- sawed back and forth,but we icst the gam.9 by three points. The next exciting game w s with Newman here, end was that ever a thriller’. The first quarter saw the Warriors take a four point lead which increased to six at the half, the score being 21-15, Tuscola kept the six point lead during all of the third quarter, but slipoed in the fourth to let Newman make it a close ball-game. With about three seconds to go and Tuscola ahead bv only one point, Newman had the ball out cf bounds. They passed the ball in to little Joe Warnsley, who tried a long thirty footer which touched nothing but the bottom of the net. However, the officials ruled that the horn had blown before the bell was in the air. So the finel score on the score board repd 39-38, an exciting game and a victory for the Warriors. The Sullivan game was a close one that went into en overtlme.We obtained a six point lead in the first quarter which decreased to five points at the half. Then in the third period we only scored nine points to their eighteen, making the score 26-22 in favor of the Redskins,but in the last quarter we came back to tie the game up at 34 all. In the overtime we made five points to their two, to win by a score of 39-36. Our second game with Newman was also a close one which we lost 33-31, We had a poor third quarter Jn hlcJj we made only three points. We just had a bad night in general. The Unity game was close all the way-with Unity keeping about two points ahead--until in the fourth quarter, when we passed them in the closing minutes of the game and won by one point, 46-45. Our last game of the year with Mattoon in the Regional was a close one. '-‘re were ahead all the first half. The score was 23-22 at the end of that period of play.The Green Wave got hot in the third period and we were nine points down going into the last quarter, but the Warriors came back to make it a close game. We lost by only four points 48-44.
