URBANA T PRESENTS MET 71 VOLUME H-5 JO ANN VJILtlAMSON-EDlW?-INCHIEF karen huetzen-liter ar A editor DELORES BEIL-BUSINESS MANAGER RUTH E. ROMPEL- ADVISE EPT-JUNE BANA, ILLINOIS FOREWORD: This is a review of the 1953-54 performance on our stage, UHS. With each scene we remember the parts we ployed, the rehearsals we missed, and the bock- stage cutups! Realizing that the success of a play depends on the cooperation of actors, directors, and managers, we have completed another hit year. For you, we, the members of the Rosemary staff, present our Playbill of 1954. mil Tm7™ OUR CAST OUR DIRECTORS . . . PAGE 42 The 1954 Rosemary OUR CURTAIN CALLS . . . PAGE 112 Acf 1 . . .

THE LEADS ... Our Seniors Well, the curtain will soon be closing on our days here at ol' U.H.S. It really doesn't seem possible . . . Oh, everyone had told us time and again, These are the best years of your lives, and They will slip through your fingers. But we really didn't believe them. No, as we sadly slip out of the roles of leads for our understudies to take over, we realize how wonderful this, and all our years have been. We really haven't done anything spectacular—just the usual agenda for seniors. On October 7, we started by electing class officers. We had three parties from which to choose: the Line-up Party, the Party Line, and the Tiger 5. We finally decided on a split ticket of all boys: Butch Orr, Bob Watts, Ron Eskew, Duke Goodwin, and Jim Elam. Realizing what a big job Class Night would be, we started to work early by appointing commit- tees for the Class Will, the Prophecy, and the History. Next, we voted on our graduation gowns. After considering several colors, we finally chose the almost-traditional blue. A very important event in our senior perform- ance was the selection of our senior honorary 8 members. Twenty-eight of us made Alpha Psi Omega, while forty-five made Sagamore. We were rather proud to have such a large represen- tation. As spring rolled around, we started dreaming of Senior Skip Day. When that day came we really lived it up. It was wonderful to be together. Some of us were fortunate enough to go on an- other trip, too—the Travel Club trip to Wash- ington, D. C. and New York City during Easter vacation. Some of the occurrences on this train trip will bring blushes and happy memories for years to come. As the year drew to a close, we had an impres- sive Baccalaureate, a bang-up Class Night, a beautiful Junior-Senior Prom at the Urbana Country Club, and finally the long-awaited Grad- uation at the new Urbana Junior High. We hope you won't forget the Class of '54. Remember our leadership in activities; remem- ber our never-failing sense of humor and crazy expressions; remember our outstanding scholas- tic rating, and remember our unbeatable school spirit. Remember us. Urbana High, because we will never forget you—your classrooms, activities, and faculty will be pleasant memories to us always.

THE UNDERSTUDIES... Our Juniors As the curtain rose on the 1954 school year, we juniors, although still understudies, began at once to prove our merit. The two semesters were big as well as important productions, and our class had a bigger role than ever before. How we handled our parts throughout the year was to determine the fame of our class in our senior year, and we lived up to our fine reputation by performing exceptionally for all thirty-six weeks. The first event in our career as understudies was the election of class officers. From two parties, we chose our leaders: Rex Whitlatch, president; Dick Lindeman, vice president; Mary Elizabeth Trimble, secretary; Phil Shroyer, treas- urer; and Jim Blue, Rosemary representative. As soon as the election was over we started right to work, for we had a king-size responsibility this year. It was our job to put on the Junior-Senior Prom at the close of the school year to honor the seniors, and all of us devoted time, money and energy so that the prom would be a success. We undertook such money-making projects as sell- ing autograph books, holding bake sales, and selling candy during noon hours ot school, and it wasn't long before we began to think about the actual planning of the dance. Where we wanted the prom to be held was the first main question. and we had a hard time deciding whether to hold it at the Urbana Elks Club or at the Urbana Golf and Country Club. The Country Club was de- cided upon. The choice of an orchestra was not nearly so difficult, and we almost unanimously voted for Wayne Carr's Orchestra to provide the music for the prom. It soon became evident that class activities were not our only pastime, as fine records were established in all UHS sports by our capable junior boys. Also, we juniors were displaying fine work in extra-curricular activities, and at the end of the school year, some of us were elected to major offices in almost every club. As a reward for outstanding work, those of us who were leaders in various activities were chosen to go on a Spring Inspection Trip following Easter vacation. Scholastic success was another achievement for many of us, and twenty-five juniors were initi- ated into Psi, junior scholastic honorary, in April. After the curtain fell, we entertained the seniors at one of the most successful Junior- Senior Proms ever held. As we enjoyed the results of our year-long hard work, we were already anticipating the future—a last and even more enjoyable and valuable year—as UHS seniors. 26 Tin’ 1954 Rosemary TOP—A group of gols at one of those junior slumber portics . . . wonder whot M.

THE SUPPORTING CAST... At the beginning of the year, our directors lectured us on many things. They spoke of the terrific responsibilities of being the supporting cast, the necessity of earning large amounts of money for the junior prom, and the need for not getting into debt before that time. They assured us that we would step into the UHS spotlight as holders of bit parts, and that our duties this year would be many and varied. As a result, we fol- lowed in the footsteps of supporting casts since time immemorial; we raised absolutely no money, spent a little, and handled only two items of business. However, in true class of '56 spirit, we performed excellently on those two: the election of class officers and the choice of our class rings. The biggest roles in the sophomore theater went to our class officers. Their top dramatic ability and expert performance in the October sixth campaign assembly won them their offices, and over the year they proved to be valuable troupers. John Skroder headed the group as presi- dent, with Vice-President Kay Gallagher in the second spotlight. Peggy Goldenstein, secretary, and Susan Schweiker, treasurer, managed our business like professionals; while our publicity was capably handled by Rosemary representative. Our Sophomores Sue Ann Stirewalt. Mr. John Dimmick, biology teacher, was our sponsor and coached us to an outstanding level of performance. In March, we faced our biggest responsibility as bit players—the choice of our class rings. Salesmen from two companies liked our class so much that they vied for the honor of selling us our rings. Our class ring committee, composed of homeroom representatives and class officers, listened to the two sales talks and deliberated upon the benefits of each company's rings. The committee and Mr. Dimmick then worked indus- triously, arousing great interest in the choice, so that over three-fourths of our class voted for their favorite ring in an election on March 19. With characteristic brilliance, we chose what was by far the better ring by a unanimous vote. The rings will arrive by September of next year, and we, as understudies and then leads, will wear them proudly during that and the following school year. As the curtain falls on our sophomore perform- ance, we hope that we have done well, and we look forward to two more years of bigger and better roles in the Urbana High School theater. 32 The 1954 Rosemary Top—Hey, Lois!

Our Freshmen The curtain rose for the class of '57 on Orien- tation Day, when we were given a dress rehearsal of high school life. This annual program, planned by the Student Council, began with short speeches from upperclassmen who represented the many clubs and activities. We got pretty tired of hear- ing the same introduction from each speaker: Gee, but there are a lot of you! You're the largest class we've ever had here at UHS! They didn't need to tell us there were 250 new fresh- men! Our social life began at the Tigers' Den fresh- man welcome dance. Although we spent the first part of the evening watching the dancing, drink- ing the free pop, and listening to the six-piece band, we soon got in the mood of the party. The backdrop, a Tiger in diapers with the number 57 on the front, looked swell. After having our schedules rearranged so that we could eat lunch with our friends, or be in the same study hall as a certain other person, and after being chased out of a junior English class into a freshman one, we began to fall into the day-to-day routine. While the boys were outstand- ing in the various sports, the girls acquainted themselves with G.A.A. Some of us will not forget that informal initiation! One of the highlights of the year was the Cam- paign Assembly, held October 6. Two organized 36 parties, the 57 Varieties and the Dilly Five, campaigned for class officers with very original skits. The slogan, Guaranteed to get you out of a pickle was voiced by the Dilly Five candi- dates: Don Viseur, president; Sally Langhaar, vice-president; Betty Fields, secretary; Shirley Anderson, treasurer; and Gardner Yenowine, Rosemary representative. Living up to the title, the five Dills dressed up in anything from UHS track suits to hula skirts. The victorious team, the 57 Varieties, fea- tured a play entitled, Two Lost Lasses. Jane Russell and Marilyn Monroe, as portrayed b Martha Mock and Louise Carlson, found them selves in a forest. While they traveled through, they saw, in succession, snake charmer Don Wil- liamson conjuring up a snake (Carol Martin); Tarzan (Chris Moyer), The Wolf Gal (Janice Porter), and the Yokum family (Tobey Wiley, Don Prather, Phil Alberts). This comic-strip- brought-to-life seemed to be the right approach to us, for we voted in the entire party. After much activity and many classes, 28 of us were initiated into the scholastic honorary. Alpha. Thus our first act ended with the inexperi- enced freshman actors showing that in the future we con, and shall, take leading roles.

H The 1954 Rosemary Seniors of 1954: Shortly ofter you read this message you will be awarded diplomas indicating that you have attained certain standards which entitle you to graduation from Urbana High School. Standards which all must meet are necessarily minimum standards and I hope that you will not be satis- fied with minimum accomplishments throughout life. In the graduating class of 1954 there are many people who are capable of brilliant accomplish- ments. The academic record of the class is su- perior to most Urbana High School classes. The attainment in extra-curricular activities is out- standing. Many in the class, however, are far more capable than their records would indicate. If they learn to perform at full capacity, we will hear thrilling news about the Class of 1954 in the years to come. I wish to extend to you the best wishes of the Urbana High School faculty for your continued success and happiness. R. H. BRAUN. STAGE MANAGER AND ASSISTANTS MR. R. H. BRAUN Principal MR. RALPH DAVIS Dean of Boys A very busy member of the Urbona High School faculty is Mr. Ralph Davis, Dean of Boys. Every day Mr. Davis checks ottendonce, interviews boys who have misbehaved in class, and does counseling. He also sponsors the UHS Student Council and takes port in state SC activities. MISS SARAH J. FISHER Dean of Girls Any girl in school who has at some time been absent or tardy knows Miss Sarah J. Fisher, the UHS Dean of Girls. Miss Fisher, in addition to keeping attendance records, counseling, ond helping seniors with their college ond job applications, ably sponsors the Social Klub. The 1954 Rosemary 45 OFFICE SECRETARIES: Mrs. Davis and Mrs. Hulett pause a moment in the middle of their day's work. Jack-of-all-trades is on expression which describes the work of any one of Urbana High School's busy office secretaries. These women truly lead varied lives, for their jobs include any- thing and everything from typing to first aid. Taking dictation, mimeographing bulletins, an- swering the telephone, answering students' ques- tions, and running the office are all in a day's work for them. At the start of the school year, there were three secretaries and a bookkeeper at UHS. Mrs. Floreat Stern, one of the three, left in October, and Mrs. Ann Davis, the bookkeeper, remained at Urbana High until February. Mrs. Betty Maxie, another secretary, left in January, but the last of the four, Mrs. Jo Hulett, remained at UHS throughout the year. In February Mrs. Mary Moen came to take Mrs. Davis' place, and Mrs. Cherie Bohan joined the secretarial staff. STUDENT OFFICE HELP: Row 1—Mockey, Burwell, McKinney, Williams, Roushenbcrgcr.

STUDENT COUNCIL MINUTES Student Council, student governing body of Urbana High School, having completed its projects, ends another successful year. First on the agenda for the 1953-54 school year, besides the annual trophy polishing by sopho- mores and Orientation Day, was the acquiring of the concession stands for the football games. A different set-up was used this year with programs and professional sellers included in the contract. At the annual fall dances a number of people were outstanding. Costume winners at The Yokum Switch were Judy Moyer, Jim Lain, and Kathe Porter. Adding to the beauty of the Tri-High presentation Deep Purple was our queen, Terry Mathews. Again, this year, class elections were sponsored by Student Council with Susie Raushenberger doing a fine job as general chairman. Speaking of elec- tions, Student Council held one within itself. For the first time, regular dele- gates to the Tri-High Council were elected. They were Jim Blue and Margo Sullivan. As the year advanced, the problems of the Christmas Dance were renewed. Discussion brought out the fact that the boys did not attend dances because they didn't know how to dance. Student Freshmen ore served punch by homeroom teacher Mr. Adorns and sophomore Sara Kinnc during Orientation Day which wos sponsored by Student Council. A studious Tri-High Council discusses the Ex- change Assemblies. Council voted to set up o learn-to-dance program. Karin Williams did on ex- cellent job os chairman and with the aid of Mrs. Seaman, practice teacher in World History, and Mrs. Wiley, mother of a student council represen- tative, as instructors, the program was successful. Several people, both boys and girls, improved their dancing to the extent that the Christmas Dance, supervised by chairman, Karen Hult- zen, was a money-making project for the first time in years. Margo Sullivan's Recreation Com- mittee was the next one appointed. The committee worked to set up activi- ties for the noon hours. Those finally decided upon were checkers, cards, and dancing. The first of the second semester brought the Annual Exchange Assem- blies. With Joan Rhodes and Karen Hultzen serving as co-chairmen, Ur- bana's Assembly was well received at both Champaign and University High Schools. On the charitable side of the work. Student Council sponsored the March of Dimes drive. A sincere vote of thanks goes to our sponsor, Ralph Davis. MEMBERS: Row 1—Wiley, A Smith, Beoird, Trotter, Hodges, Eubanks, Dolbey, A.

BLOOD, SWEAT, AND TEARS Plenty of blood, sweat, and tears went into the make-up of your 1954 yearbook, for there is a tremendous amount of work behind the produc- tion of a book of the size and quality of your Rosemary. At the beginning of the year, the staff started work with the choice of a theme—the theater. Homeroom pictures were taken next. Editor-in-Chief Jo Ann Williamson and photog- rapher Dick Hunt became a familiar sight around school as they prowled the grounds in search of different settings for the photos. Karen Hultzen, Literary Editor, and her assistants, Margo Sulli- van and Sara Kinne, then began identifying the students in each picture, and the call went out for snapshots from each homeroom for the home- room pages. When these tasks were completed, there was little editorial activity for a period, but many Rosemary staffers were still busy. These were the members of the advertising staff, whose job it was to contract for the back-of-the-book ads which finance much of the cost of the Rosemary. The ad staff members, directed by Assistant Ad Manager Carol Speers, visited many Twin-City merchants during the fall and winter in an effort to sell a large number of advertisements to earn all of the two thousand-dollar goal. In the early spring, Rosemary callers again appeared in the halls as pictures of club members and officers were taken. After the inevitable re- takes, a period of constant work began for Jo Ann and Karen. It was their task to complete the dummy, or the plan of the whole book, checking each picture and write-up. The two, with Miss Rompel, struggled after school each night, esti- mating the length of each story, determining whether to enlarge or reduce photographs, and arranging every page in an orderly and attractive way. A member of each club at UHS was assigned to write a report for his organization, and the Susan Schwcikcr, Lynn Viscur, and Tobcy Wiley dance the Bunny Hop after being awarded free yearbooks for the best student talent act in the Rosemary assembly. 54 The 1954 Rosemary Seated—Carol Burwell, Typist.

THERE'S ROSEMARY . . literary staff, in addition to writing the non-club sections of the book, checked and lengthened or shortened these write-ups so that they would fit their allotted spaces. Feature Editor Karen Audrieth and Sports Edi- tor Jack Dibble readied the sports and feature sections of the book. Art Editor Judy Moyer was also active throughout the year as she designed and re-designed the cover and illustrations for the Rosemary. Craig Webber, Ad Manager, was sent out after last-minute ads while the layouts of the ad dummy and feature section were being made up. Business Manager Delores Bell capably collected money for book payments and handled the rest of the Rosemary finances. However, it was not all work and no play for the Rosemary during the 1953-54 school year, for the staff put on an excellent Rosemary assem- bly in December to launch the book sales cam- paign. A committee headed by Helen Weatherly planned the program, which was in the form of a student-teacher talent show. Highlighting the production were the acts put on by the UHS fac- ulty; a hilarious Charleston by English teachers Mrs. Hewitt and Miss Dryden, a violin solo by Geometry teacher Mr. Nichols, and a modern dance by P.E. teachers Mrs. Metzger and Miss Plese. The student acts were received excellently, too, and although all were outstanding, the first award went to a tap-dancing number. In this act, Susan Schweiker and Toby Wiley danced in an effort to attract Lynn Viseur, UHS basketball Mrs. Hewitt and Miss Dryden do the Charleston ot the Rosemary Assembly. THAT'S FOR REMEMBRANCE SHAKESPEARE player. Between-the-scenes commercials for the Rosemary, set to nursery rhyme tunes and sung by the Rosemary quartet, odded humor to the program. This is the story of your yearbook. We of the staff hope that you will read and enjoy your 1954 Rosemary.

LET’S BEAT CHAMPAIGN This is just one of the headlines of The Echo, UHS newspaper which brought school news to Urbona High students every other week. The Echo, sponsored by Mr. Stanley Hynes, and co- edited by Sally Bills and Ann Willis, not only gave the current news at UHS, but it informed the stu- dents of club activities, sports, and gossip. Although much work and time was spent in the publication of each issue of The Echo, the work was distributed among the able co-editors: Judy Smith, news editor; Helen Weatherly, fea- ture editor; and Jack Dibble, sports editor. The responsibility of assigning the reporters specific stories to cover, and seeing that these assign- ments were completed to meet the deadline, was the concern of these editors. After the stories were turned in, the staff copyread, typed, and headlined them. Then the stories were sent to CIRCULATION STAFF: Harstod, Flores, Rush, Baker, Shepherd, Reed, Manager Mathews. 56 The 1954 Rosemary REPORTERS: Row 1 — Lewis, Webber, McGregor, Sands, Busey.

AGAIN!!! the Daily Illini Printing Company on the U of I campus. Two days later, a dummy issue was laid out with the galley proofs and sent back to the Daily Illini. The following day, four page proofs were returned to The Echo staff for last-minute corrections before the final copy of the UHS newspaper was printed. Two other important phases in producing the newspaper were financing and circulating it. The problem of making The Echo pay for itself be- longed to Dan Clinard, business manager. Dolores Hodges, advertising manager, was responsible for assigning ads and canvassing business organi- zations for advertisements. Terry Mathews, cir- culation manager, was in charge of putting the papers in lockers, selling Echoes at noon, and sending them to out-of-town subscribers and other high schools in the state.

MORE ATHLETIC GIRLS Girls' Athletic Association has lived up to its name during the 1953-54 school year as it has offered a variety of sports in which girls may participate. Almost all of its members took ad- vantage of the activities at some time during the year. In the fall, girls could participate in arch- ery, managed by Elsia Audieth; softball, Connie Peacock; or badminton, Virginia Holloway. In November, GAA'ers began appearing with wet, stringy hair, and it was evident that swimming had begun. Gail Tummelson managed this sport. Basketball, led by Betty O'Polka, was also offered, and on every Wednesday, a group met ot Mc- Millan's Bowling Alley to go bowling. Susan Schweiker was their manager. In the spring, soft- ball again became popular, and many GAA mem- bers participated in this sport.

Before the annual try- outs, a two-week instructional program was set up for all girls interested in trying out for the club. With the help of the new sponsor, Mrs. Pat Metzger, Terrapin put on its annual water show. The water ballets were written to records pertain- ing to the theme, Heavenly Bodies! It took long hours of practice to get the routines smooth and synchronized. Featured in the show were both serious and OFFICERS: Porter, President; Bills, Vice-Presi- dent; Sullivan, Secretary-Treasurer. comedy acts, a diving number, and a ballet which included six senior Terrapin members and six members of the U.H.S. swimming team. The show closed with an all-club finale written and directed by Mrs. Metzger. The color effect was enhanced by new coral-colored bathing suits. Terrapin completed another successful year even though it was a little on the wet side. MEMBERS: Row 1—Harstod, Bills, Newell, Kinnc, Gillespie, Boley, Beoird.

A LITTLE SISTER WELCOME . . . Social Klub, more commonly known to the students of Urbano High as S.K., is an all-girl organization. Its sponsor is Miss Sarah Fisher, Dean of Girls. Any girl in Urbana High School is eligible for membership and a large number of girls have become members. The first event of the year sponsored by Social Klub was the Big-Little Sister Party, which is held annually in the fall. During the first week of school, the officers of S.K. assigned a Freshman or new girl as a little sister to an upperclassman member of the club. At the Big-Little Sister Party, these big sisters helped the newcomers be- come acquainted with the people and the cus- toms of our school. At the party there were get-acquainted games, music for dancing, entertainment, and refreshments. During the football season several record dances were sponsored by S.K. These were held in the gym of the school after some of the home football games. The attendance was very good, both from our school and from the school whose team we played. At these hops there was a chance for Urbana students to get acquainted with stu- dents from other schools. About two weeks before Christmas, S.K. bought a gigantic tree for the front hallway of the school. When this was decorated with ornaments made in past years by the geometry classes, it gave a boost to the Christmas spirits of both faculty and students. At the close of the year, a breakfast was given for the senior members of the club by the officers elected to serve for the next year. On this occasion the installation service for the new officers was held. 62 The 1954 Rosemary MEMBERS: Row 1—Caldwell, Hickerson, Beaird, Dalbcy, Huggett, B. Johnson, C.

The rest of the crew was immensely re- lieved when a telegram arrived on the train say- ing that the two procrastinators were driving to Chicago. Once the whole thirty-five club members had arrived in the windy city, they tried to crowd as much as possible into a few hours' time. After STARS the delightful play, which they could almost see from the ceiling rafters, everyone hurried out to dinner; then back to the I.C. station and Urbana. Delta Sigma, the speech and dramatics club of Urbana High School, is open to all students in- terested in the speech arts. Since the club has been without a constitution for three or four years, a new one was drawn up this year. Karin Williams headed the committee in charge of preparing the draft, and the group, working hard, had the draft ready for presenta- tion at the November Delta Sigma meeting. The constitution was unanimously approved. MEMBERS: Row 1—Wiley, Morgan, Dodd, Trotter, Hodges, Belleff, Schweiker, Hansen, Porter, Williams. Row 2—Williamson, Neupert, Appleman, Hile, Rasner, A.

Dryden, club sponsor, ond the industrial officers, the Ur- bana High School Thespian Troup 161 had a most successful year. The annual spring play, Family Portrait, was held May 14 in Cobb Me- morial Auditorium. The large cast consisted al- most entirely of Thespians. Members also took leading roles in all dramatic productions as well as participating in the Illinois High School As- sociation's annual Speech Contest and Dramatics Festival. In 1929 the National Thespian Society was established at Fairmont State College in West Virginia. The group took its name from Thespis, the Greek originator of the drama. There are now troups located in all forty-eight states as well as in the Panama Canal Zone, Alaska, and Hawaii. The organization is an honor society in the sense that students are granted membership for having performed outstanding work in dramatics arts and having met the membership qualifica- tions and standards of their respective troups. To be eligible for membership at Urbana, one must have twenty points, acquired through acting and committee work. When a Thespian has accumu- lated forty points he is eligible for his T or Thespian letter. For every ten points over this total, he receives a gold star. After the last initiation, in May, there were twenty-eight Thespians at UHS. Although most of these were seniors, the underclassmen have shown that they are capable of keeping high the standards of Urbana High's dramatics depart- ment.

Its main purpose is to provide materials such as books, magazines, films, and recordings for students and teachers to use in class work and in recreational activities. The projects spon- sored by the club provide money to supply extra comforts and attractive surroundings for the library. This year the club carried out numerous social functions under the leadership of its president. Joan Reed, and with the help of the club sponsor, Mrs. Schwabe. Two parties, a Christmas party in December, and a splash party in March, were social activities of the Library Club, as was the annual trip to Turkey Run State Park, in May. In order to carry out the above activities, the Library Club had money-making projects throughout the year. These included t ake sales, noon movies, movies sponsored at the local theater, and concession selling at the UHS foot- ball games.

Chief purposes of F. H. A. are to promote international good will, to help the community, to further interest in home eco- nomics, to better family relationships, and to develop the girl into an efficient homemaker. The thirty F. H. A.'ers enjoyed themselves this year as they turned into hoboes to do odd jobs for people in the community, sold greeting cards. and sold their own taffy-apples to the student body. All members may work towards degrees of achievement. These are indicated by various symbols worn on the guard chain of the F. H. A. pins. The publications include the national magazine, Teen-Times, and the sectional and state newsletters. Mrs. R. M. Trimble has served the chapter as Chapter Mother, Mrs. Hazel Hasty as sponsor.

When the daily bulletin announced the formation of this club, it was doubtful that there would be many interested students, but by February 15, the date of the initiation service, sixteen had shown their en- thusiasm. At this impressive service, the club charter was presented, showing affiliation with both state and national F. T. A. clubs. As the charter mem- bers signed their names, they received their small, silver F. T. A. pins. The official name of the local chapter is the Agnes Nelson Future Teachers of America club. It was named after Miss Nelson, a well-loved, recently retired UHS math teacher, for her many years of devotion to the teaching profession. Although F. T. A. has had a rather inactive year, it has taken its place among the extra-cur- ricular activities, and under the capable guidance of its sponsor. Miss Bauer, it is sure to have many interesting years ahead. MEMBERS: Row 1 — Sloymon, Currie, Der- rough, Flores, Freeman. Row 2 — Williomson, Pierce, Toylor, Hubbard, Briggs, Fleming.

Smith, Der Wissenschoft Verein, the Science Club, at- tempted to further stimulate student interest in the many areas of science. The chemistry and physics laboratories as well as the technical library were made available to any member who wished to use them. As money is needed to enhance the activities of most groups, the Science Club first determined to again publish the Tigerectory as a financial project. The officers led the group in a three- month battle of organization, printing, and pro- SPECIALISTS duction that finally resulted in this year's forty- cent, sixty-page student directory. Once more in funds, Der Wissenschoft Verein returned to more scientific endeavors, making field trips to the Museum of Science and Industry in Chicago and to the University Engineering Open House. During the year several members developed individual projects, two of which, a tesla coil and a study of Illinois archaeology, were entered in the Illinois Junior Academy of Science competi- tion.

A SPANISH PINATA A combined candlelight initiation and Christmas party was the highlight of the 1953-54 El Pasotiempo or Spanish Club. Following formal initiation there was a pot-luck supper at which the new members had to give stunts in Spanish as part of their informal initiation. The evening was topped off with the breaking of the pinata, which is a national Spanish custom. Every third Thursday of the month los espanoles enjoyed a meeting full of fun and entertainment.

PROMOTING LEADERSHIP IN ATHLETICS Like all other forms of extra-curricular activi- ties in U.H.S., the athletes also have had their own individual organization which is known as the U Club. This club limits its membership to letter winners, and its main purpose is to bring a closer relationship between athletes and the coaching staff, ond to promote leadership and better sportsmanship. As a reward for outstanding leadership in sports, the U Club gives special trophy awards to athletes winning three letters in one school year. The VU Club, under the leadership of Presi- dent Jim Bickers, vice-president Lynn Viseur, and Secretary-Treasurer Wayne Busboom, has been active throughout the school year with the help of their sponsor, Gene Armer. The highlight of the year was the U Club dance held May 8, at which time the new mem- bers were formally initiated into the organization. The U Club has taken a definite place in the U.H.S. activities.

Gene Armer, completed onother fine year in that capacity, as well as in his position as track and cross country coach. His skill in managing the athletic department, his hard work, and his personality have made Gene respected and admired by the UHS athletes. Newcomer Warren Smith took up the coaching of the varsity football team and reserve basketball squad. With only seven returning lettermen. Coach Smith turned this year into one for building, and still came through with a creditable record. Welcome to UHS, Smitty; your friendly smile has already won us! Woody Viseur stepped in as head basketball coach, and turned out one of the finest teams in recent years. Woody, well liked because of his fine sense of humor and his ability to get a job done, also coached the reserve football team, and helped with the track team. Coach Horry Ryan led his tankmen to another winning season this year. Under his capable guidance, swimming is becoming an increasingly popular sport at UHS. Harry also assists during football and track seasons. Oscar Adams, long a favorite with the teenagers, was the other Tiger coach this year. Oscar was in charge of the wrestling and golf teams and served as football line coach. We liked working with you in Thornburn, and are glad you're with us again, Oscar! Our five coaches have been fine directors of Act 4—Athletics. VARSITY FOOTBALL SQUAD: Row 1—Coach Smith, Elom, Orr, Busboom, Huffer, Capt.

Under their new head coach the Urbana Tigers' football team completed another winning season. Warren Smith, along with Oscar Adams as new line coach, did a splendid job in moulding a mixture of under and upper classmen into a precision football machine. It was believed at the start of the season that UHS would not win a game all year, but an impressive opener ended all thought of this. In the first game of the season the Bengals traveled to highly- favored Rantoul only to put on a thrilling exhibition of passing and gain a 1313 tie. Although they were outrushed for most of the game, a beautiful forward pass by Mitch Humphrey to Tom Sams in the last four seconds of the game saved the day for Urbana. A now confident Urbana eleven hit the road for the second week with a trip to Georgetown and a 6-6 tie. The Tigers had to fight back to overcome the pass interception that had given Georgetown its T.D. in the second quarter. On the ground the Bengals overpowered the Buffalo defense as they chalked up 132 yards to the home team's 2 yards. Dick McDade led the offen- sive punch with 39 yards while Mitch Humphrey passed for 65. The following week was UHS homecoming and the Tigers turned in a top performance by humbling Danville 26-19 for UHS's first Big 12 win. Dick McDade ran the opening kickoff 84 yards to score. Another outstanding performer was Dick Reinhold who did the best playing of his high school career. Coach Smith later called this Urbana's best game of the season 78 The 1954 Rosemary Elam catches winning touchdown pass in Springfield game. and praised the team for their fine job. Victory upon victory was the order of the day when Coach Smith's cohorts traveled to Mattoon for a second straight triumph 13-12. This gave the Tigers the undisputed Big 12 lead. M. D. Pelmore smashed through the Green Wave line for 82 yards and Tom Sams caught three Bengal passes for 101 yards and the tying tally.

Ed Bohlen and Dick Reinhold played a great defensive game, while M. D. Pel- more again took the running honors; however, the Tigers were no match for the strong running backs Ahrens and Grogan. Urbana gained only 117 yards to 241 for Schlarman. A big first half for Decatur ended all title hopes of the Tigers when these two teams met and Urbana suffered a 19-7 set-back. It was the Reds' homecoming and the Tigers just couldn't seem to get rolling as the home team piled up all their points in the first half. The only bright ray of light for Urbana was Dick Mc- Dade who went for 33 yards in the third period to make the only touchdown. Jack Gordy and Don Stone, along with their team- mates, ripped through the Tiger line for 297 yards. Exhausted from two straight defeats. Urbana suffered their worst pounding of the season the following Friday in a home tilt. Kankakee ripped up Urbana McKinley field for 458 yards and a 41-0 defeat for the helpless Tigers. The Kays pushed across (wo TD's before Urbana could even gain a yard. Dick McDade and Henry Sadler were the only bright spots for the Tigers. Next, the Bengals met Champaign in the annual intra-city classic and suffered a 31-0 defeat. Too much depth and power killed the Tigers. The outstanding player on the Urbana squad was little Henry Sadler who collected 54 of Urbana's 57 yards.

In the final contest of the year, a spirited Urbana crew came through with flying colors as they whipped a strong Springfield squad 13-7.

The squad swept through an undefeated schedule in triangular and dual meets, posting two wins over Mattoon, Danville, and Champaign, and one win over Paris. For the second straight year the thinclads ran away with the Big 12 championship behind the spirited sprinting of Lynn Viseur, who copped third place. Following right behind Lynn were Frank Hedgecock, Leonard Wilson, Jim Bickers, and Bill Ziegler who finished fifth, sixth, tenth, and seventeenth, respectively. The Urbana Country Club was the site of both the district and state meet. The Tigers dropped a close district crown to a powerful Cumberland squad by a 33-48 count. The following week an even more crowded field was present for the run- ning of the state championship. The surprise winner was a young squad from Evanston with the thinclads of Urbana coming in fifth. Viseur as usual was the first in for Mr. Armer's cohorts, os he finished sixteenth. Leonard Wilson was in the number two spot with a twenty-fifth place, and Hedgecock, Bickers, and Ziegler in thirty- seventh, forty-first, and seventy-eighth places, respectively. Once again the reputation of Urbana as a powerhouse in the realm of Cross-Country was upheld. There appears to be very good prospects for a fine team next year. The school owes a great deal to the coach, the team, and the managers for the fine jobs they did. TEAM: Row 1—L. Viseur, Hedgecock, Murray, Havens, Wilson, Ziegler, Bickers, Barcus, Lehigh, Barnes.

The first week of play saw Urbana win the opener against Watseka, 46 to 42, and lose to Rantoul, 53-61. Then the Fighting Tigers gained their first Big Twelve victory in over a year with a 51-43 score over Mattoon. The bottom dropped out for the Tigers after that game and they lost seven in a row. During this losing streak, Coach Viseur experi- mented with several lineups before hitting upon a winning combination, of Tom Sams, Mitch Humphrey, Aubrey Lee, Lynn Viseur, and M. D. Pelmore. Regaining their winning ways of the first few games, Urbana defeated Streator and Springfield by scores of 64-61, and 54-51, both in overtimes. After dropping a game to Monti- cello, a close contest, the Tigers downed Mattoon for the second time. A loss to Pana and a win over Georgetown brought us to the Champaign game. On February 5, the Urbana quintet beat Cham- paign 70-63 for their second victory over the west siders in twelve years and their first since 1951. The following Friday, they shook up league- leading Danville 58-40 to gain revenge over their earlier defeat. The Tigers wound up the sched- uled season with a win over Unity and a loss to Decatur. In Regional play which took place in the junior high gym, Urbana dropped district winner Ells- worth only to lose to Monticello in an overtime to end the season. Playing their last game for Ur- bana were Rod Huggett, Bob Watts, Jim Elam, and Frank Hedgecock. The Tigers ended the season with 12 wins and 13 losses, including a 6-6 record in the Big Twelve which is rated one of the toughest leagues in the state. Junior forward Tom Sams was the leading scorer and the winner of the George Whiting Free-Throw Trophy which is awarded annually to the player with the highest free-throw per- centage. With six experienced lettermen returning next year, the Fighting Tigers should be one of the powerhouses of Central Illinois.

WRESTLING Urbana High's mat-men, captained by Duke Goodwin, again completed a very successful sea- son by winning six dual meets and losing only three. Paced by 1953 state champion Rex Whit- latch, the grapplers placed third in Big Twelve and sectional competition. After the sectional, Urbana traveled to state with five men and placed seventh among fifty schools. The wrestlers were defeated by Pekin in their first meet but they soon avenged this defeat by downing their next four opponents. First to be overwhelmed by the Tigers was Champaign. Ur- bana won by a score of 21-14. Three days later they beat Mattoon severely, 45-3. Danville, which had a very strong wrestling team, succumbed 29- 17. In this meet, the Tigers showed exceptional depth. The most valuable wrestler award was pre- sented to Russell Lewis, who was undefeated dur- ing dual meet competition, first in Big Twelve and sectional. Rex Whitlatch was named next year's captain. Rex placed first in Big Twelve, first in sectional, and second in state. Dave Kuypers was named the most improved wrestler. SEASON SCHEDULE December 11..........Pekin—there December 15.

SWIMMING The Urbona High swimming team, captained by Jim Toth, really came through with a fine season. They won five dual meets, lost six, and placed fourth in the conference. Along with these victories three new U.H.S. records were set. The 100- yard free style record was broken by Jim Lain, who breezed through it in 61 seconds. Jim Toth set a new 200-yord free style mark by posting a time of 2:21.7. The 160-yard free style relay team consisting of Jim Toth, Bob Bean, Norm Collins and Jim Lain, swam a record-breaking time of 1:26. Next year's team looks very promising, despite the loss of Captain Jim Toth, Stewart Trimble, Jim Lain, Glenn Black and Bill Moore.

After the first week of practice, Mr. Armer was heard to say, We won't even win a dual meet. Despite his pessimism the squad, led by returning letter- men Jim Bickers, Bill Ziegler, L. T. Robertson, Aubrey Lee, Leonard Wilson, Frank Hedgecock, Dick McDade, George Scott, Glenn Black and Lynn Viseur, were in hopes of a successful season. The half-mile and mile runs were handled very capably by Lynn Viseur, Leonard Wilson and Frank Hedgecock. Leonard hit consistently around 2:05 in the half-mile, and Lynn around 4:40 in the mile. Jim Bickers and Bill Ziegler gave Urbana the most powerful one-two punch in Central Illinois for the 440. Bickers, Ziegler, Aubrey Lee, L. T. Robertson and M. D. Pelmore ran the 100- and 220-yard dashes. The hurdles were handled by George Scott and Dick McDade. Freshmen Archie Robertson and Scott hit 5' 10 in the high jump, and they should improve for future Urbana track teams. L. T. Robertson set a new Urbana High record in the shot putt, with a heave of over 49'. Jim Toth carried the load in the discus. Glenn Black improved greatly over last year in the pole vault, hitting over 1 1'6 . The half-mile relay team was composed of L. T. Robertson, M. D. Pelmore, Dick McDade, and Jack Murray. The extremely fast mile-relay was made up of Aubrey Lee, Jim Bickers, Bill Ziegler, and Leonard Wilson. All totalled, the team did not have any real outstanding men, but it was a well-balanced squad. They were the powerhouse of Central Illinois, and proved this by winning thejf own Urbana open meet and winning dual meets over Danville and Rantoul by impressive scores. Five returning lettermen work out before the scoson—Jim Bickers, Senior; Bill Zeigler, Senior; Leonard Wilson, Senior; Frank Hedgecock, Senior; Lynn Viseur, Junior. The 1954 Rosemary 95 L. T.

His reason was the return of four of the 1953 lettermen, Bob Watts, Craig Webber, Jim Marlow, and Norm Collins. The addition of Bill Moore to the four lettermen gave the team five 85 shooters for the first time in many years. The team had the privilege of using the Urbana Country Club once again for practice and home meets. Professional Don Street of the Country Club gave the team members technical help at any time they requested it. March 3 April 8 . April 13 April 26 April 28 May 3 May 5 . May 8 . May 14 May 19 .

IT WITH YOU You Can't Take It With You, pre- sented in Cobb Memorial Auditorium on Friday, November 20, is a comedy about a very peculior family, the Syca- mores. The ploy centers around mother Penny Sycomore, a very creative person, and her efforts to marry daugh- ter Alice to rich Tony Kirby. Alice, however, feels that since the two fami- lies are opposite in character, she and Tony should not marry. When the highbrow Kirbys arrive for Ed (Terry Sands) accompanies Essie (Adrienne Arnold) who practices a ballet step for instructor Mr. Kolenkhov. dinner on the night before they are expected, they find a ballet dancer, a snake collector, and an artist are mem- bers of the Sycomore family.

FAMILY PORTRAIT Family Portrait encompasses the last three years of Christ's life. It begins in Nazareth where His brothers are angered with Him for leaving home during the height of the carpentry season. They go to Capernaum to bring Jesus bock only to discover that He has become both powerful and popular there. Immediately they change their attitudes and when Jesus is invited to come to Nazareth to preach in the Synagogue, His family feels He has brought honor to them after all. The people want miracles and a spectacle, however, and when Jesus fails to provide these and only speaks simply and quietly. His towns- people and neighbors are disappointed and turn against Him. The visit ends in shame and dis- grace for His whole family. Now the story shifts to Jerusalem and the tri- umphant entry, immediately followed by the crowd's vindictive cries of crucify him! In the upper room Mary waits for Jesus to return from Gethsemene, but He is arrested before she can see Him. The last scene takes us back to Nazareth some years after the crucifixion to Jesus' family who still believe they have been disgraced by their Brother. Only Mary keeps faith. The play illustrates in modern terms the Master's own words: A prophet is not without honor, but in his own country, and among his own kin, and in his own house.

The Band played for home and out-of-town football games, and, divided into two pep bands, performed for basketball games and pep assemblies. After long periods of rehearsal, the group gave an entertoining and successful concert at the junior high school in February. In April, it took part in the music con- test, and many solo and ensemble entries did well in district and state competition. BAND PERSONNEL MR.

WEEKEND RENDEZVOUS Among the students at Urbana, the Tigers' Den has long been a popular place to spend Fri- day and Saturday evenings. Dancing, ping-pong, games, and refreshments are all parts of the program. The youth council, consisting of five members from each class, is chosen by the vote of the stu- dent body. The members meet to plan the dances and activities for the year. The Tigers' Den is one of the few self-governed and self-supporting youth centers in the state and is independent from school sponsorship. Several large orchestra dances are held each year. The council decorates the Den according to the theme of the particular dance. The freshmen were introduced to the Tigers' Den at the annual Freshman Welcome Dance which was held at the beginning of the season. The Thanksgiving Dance, Holiday Dance, Valentine Dance, and Hard Times Parties were also highlights of the season. Instituting a new tradition, an All-Urbana night was held again this year. To climax the end of the year, the newly-elected council sponsored the Graduation Dance, held in honor of the seniors. Some of our finest mem- ories of Urbana High centered around our wonderful youth center, the Tigers' Den! OFFICERS: Seated— Gallagher, Jr. Choir- man; Mothcws, Sr. Chairman.

That was us and we were going to let everyone know it that Orientation Day in 1950. We would really show the upper- classmen how to run the school, or so we thought as we climbed the fifteen steps to enter UHS for the first time as freshmen. We were promptly deflated. In the first place we couldn't even find our way around the halls —many times one of us would find himself in the teachers' restroom instead of Mr. Senn's social studies class! Then the confident seniors awed us. They seemed so business-like, hurrying im- portantly from one meeting to another. It only made us feel more like green freshmen. After a short while, however, we got into the swing of things. To lead the class we elected the Derby party which consisted of Tom Ward, presi- dent; Terry Mathews, vice-president; Annalee Slade, secretary; Butch Orr, treasurer; and Sally Bills, Rosemary representative. Ruby Wikholm, running on another party, tied Terry for the vice- presidency. We were represented on the Tigers' Den Council by Bill Brunkow, Shirley Strode, Carolyn Richards, Jean Rhodes, and Tom Cruse, who contributed greatly to its management. During football season we elected Carol Bur- well, Joan Rhodes, and Patty Beaird to the Court of Honor. Twenty-one of our boys capably took part in freshman-sophomore football. Cheering us on To victory during our reserve games were Shirley Strode, Sonya Fitzsimmons, and Dolores Allen. Five boys were active in each of the winter sports, while seven went out for golf, and eighteen for track. The first boys to become U Club members were Dan Clinard, lettering in manag- ing, and Butch Orr, lettering in wrestling. Many of our girls were active in G.A.A. and S.K., and Sally Bills, Kathe Porter and Sue Raush- enberger were initiated into Terrapin. Sue, Butch Orr and Tom Ward held major parts in ''Oh! Su- sanna!, the fall play. Our next play, Junior Miss, included Jo Ann Williamson, Judy Moyer, Cliff Mendel, Patti Poor, Karen Hultzen and Tom Ward. The first Thespians from our class were Karen Hultzen and Judy Moyer. Couples seen together at the Tigers' Den and the various dances were Carol Burwell and Jim Bickers, Shirley Strode and Ray Wilson, Karen Harstad and Stewart Havens, Bobbye McKinney and Dan Clinard, Betty Atteberry and Dick Cook, Potty Beaird and Tom Luker, and Marlene Mackey and Dick Kirkpatrick. The scholastic ability of our freshman class was very high as shown by the number of students elected to Alpha. Our officers were Bill Ziegler, president; Carol Burwell, vice-president; Annalee Slade, secretary. Final exams brought to a close our first year at UHS, and we looked forward with anticipation to our sophomore year. SOPHOMORE— We returned to UHS as sophomores, full of confidence and devilish pranks. When class elec- tions rolled around we voted in a combination of two parties. Jo Ann Williamson was elected presi- dent; Joan Rhodes, vice-president; Patty Beaird, secretary; Peggy Gher, treasurer; and Shirley Strode, Rosemary representative. Remember the tunes, Oh, I Had a Little Chickie, and He Wouldn't Give a Vote, and Checkerkids, Where Are They? ? Jo Ann led the closs in changing on old tradi- tion. Instead of waiting until the fall of our junior year to select class rings, we selected and ordered ours in the spring of 1952, so that they were ready for us the following September. It took much hard work on the part of the officers, but finally we became the first class to order class rings our sophomore year! We were known as the peppiest class in the school, for we backed our teams all the way. Wherever you heard On, Urbana, or the T-clap, you knew you would find some Silly Sophs. We, as so many sophomores before, cut up frogs and other dead things. When we typed blood in our biology classes, we discovered that Carol Tomlinson had the rarest type of all, AB. We spent many hours groaning over speeches and theorems, but had time for activity in various clubs. Dan Clinard, Tom Ward, Jo Ann William- son, and Sue Raushenberger earned the necessary points for membership into Thespians. Judy Moyer and Jo Ann Williamson were initiated into Terrapin. L. T. Robertson helped our varsity football men to take fourth in the Big 12 that year. Thirteen more of our boys played on the reserve football team. We selected Barbara Swearingen, Terry Mathews, and Jo Ann Williamson to represent us on the Court of Honor. Majorettes from our class were Carol Burwell and Carole Mackey. Shirley Strode was our first varsity cheerleader and our reserves were Pot Beaird, Sue Raushen- berger, Karen Harstad, Sonya Fitzsimmons, D'Ann Hile, Ann Willis, Delores Allen, and Pat Poor. Eight boys were on the reserve basketball team. John Hedgecock, Leonard Wilson, and C. L. Munhall were cross country letter winners who helped the team win the State Champion- ship. Russ Lewis was the only soph to win a letter in wrestling, while Jim Lain, Bill Moore, Stewart Trimble and Jim Toth were letter winners in swimming. Carolyn Richards and Bob Cruse, Dolores Hodges and Dick Milum, Karen Harstad and Clyde Smith, and Jo Ann Williamson and Ralph Campbell were couples frequently seen at the Den dancing to such popular songs as Sin, I Get Ideas, Blue Tango, and Shrimp Boats. JUNIOR— Finally we entered the halls of UHS as upper- continued on poge 130) The 1954 Rosemary 125 MAJORETTES Swearingen, Brown, Bolinger, Burwell, Drum Majorette; Fitzsimmons, Rosner, Sizemore. These are the girls who kept the crowds enter- tained during the football half-times, the major- ettes leading the band with their fancy baton twirling, and the Court of Honor, in their white sweaters and skirts, marching with American flags. The Court of Honor, which performed at all home Big 12 games, was chosen by vote of the student body, three girls representing each class. BIG 12 COURT OF HONOR Row 1—Hickerson, Apgor. Row 2—Mock, Losscn, Rutledge, Stevens, Carter. Row 3—Johnson, Gionturco, Onweller, Sullivan, Audrieth. 126 The 1954 Rosemary THE CAFETERIA Approximately two hundred students and twenty-five faculty members ate lunch in the UHS cafeteria each day. The hard-working cook- ing staff reports these hungry people spent approximately $130 a day. Their favorite des- serts were cherry and apple pie, the vegetable— corn—and the prepared dish—barbecue. The consumed quantities of food in two hours —50 pounds of potatoes, 16 loaves of bread, and 190 bottles of milk. Yes, the cafeteria is a very important part of life in Urbana High. Cafeteria Women: Mrs. Renner, Mrs. Leonard, Mrs. Freemon, Mrs. Goldenstein, Mrs. Poison. Cafeteria Help: Seated— Word, Thompson, Woodworth, Slovcr, Elom, Dolton. Standing—Hicks, Beckett, Atteberry, Ziegler, Robertson, Elam, Smith, Mothis, McLaughlin. The 1954 Rosemary 127 128 The 1954 Rosemary To the Class of 1954 . . .

Our junior year got under way with the election of class officers. They were Bill Ziegler, president; Leonard Wilson, vice-presi- dent; Rose Passalacqua, secretary; Bill Moore, treasurer; and Ralph Atteberry, Rosemary repre- sentative. The class elected Judy Moyer, Pat Gillogly, and Dolores Hodges to Court of Honor. Joan Rhodes, Terry Mathews, Sue Raushenberger, Sally Bills, and Bill Brunkow were the representa- tives from our class who helped run the Tigers' Den. Karen Hultzen was chosen as delegate to Girls' State with Joan Rhodes as alternate. Picked to go to Boys' State were Dan Clinard, Jim Toth and Larry Leow. Karen Harstad, Pat Beaird, and Ann Willis were the new initiates into Terrapin. These girls helped make a success of Urbana High's first water show in many years. Our majorettes that year were Carol Burwell, Sandra Bolinger, Carolyn Richards, and Sonya Fitzsim- mons, ond the varsity cheerleaders were Pat Beaird, Karen Harstad, Shirley Strode, and Sue Raushenberger. Bill Moore, Jim Elam, L. T. Robertson, Dave Lowry and Wayne Busboom represented the junior class on the football team and helped us defeat Champaign High for the first time in many years. In basketball, Jim Elam made the varsity squad while Bob Watts and Larry Loew played on the reserve team. Outstanding boys in track were L. T. Robertson, Jim Bickers, Bill Ziegler, Leonard Wilson, Frank Hedgecock, and Glen Black. Of these boys, L. T., Jim and Leonard qualified for the state meet. Wrestling letter winners were Russell Lewis and Duane Goodwin. The juniors were well represented on the swim- ming team with Jim Lain, Glen Black, Bill Moore, Stewart Trimble, and Jim Toth as starters. The cross country team easily took the Big 12 cham- pionship and placed second with the able help of Frank Hedgecock, Jim Bickers, Bill Ziegler and Leonard Wilson. L. T. Robertson was the junior winner of the Doc Kelly award. Golf letter win- ners were Craig Webber and Bob Watts. Fifteen juniors were members in the U Club. While all the sports activities were progress- ing, the school's dramatic department was also working in full force. We were well represented in such plays as I Remember Mama, Arms and the Man, The Drunkard, and the contest play, The Safecracker's Pride. New Thespians were Kathe Porter, Dolores, Hodges, Patti Poor, and Butch Orr. Craig Webber and Solly Bills were elected to Quill and Scroll. Our scholastic ability showed up as 32 students became mem- bers of Psi. Dolores Hodges was given an unusual honor by being elected to the Relay Court.

DRINK MILK FOR HEALTH LENNOX Warm Air HEATING SYSTEM 717 S. Neil Street Chumpaign, HI. In the pant one hundred seventy seven years, as our country has grown and developed, business, ag- riculture and labor have each lie- come “big. Probably of necessity, government likewise has become “big.” Our government today, includ- ing federal, state, and local, is larger than any industry. The pub- lic schools alone are “bigger than any single private enterprise. It is more important than ever before that we have men and women of high integrity in govern- mental positions of compensation or honor. We salute you, the senior class, for applying yourselves to the task you have just finished. We would like to invite you to apply yourself in the same manner to the respon- sibilities of citizenship in our de- mocracy.

Among the songs danced to by these and other couples were Even Now, Ruby, and I Believe. Mr. William Senn, our class sponsor, left UHS in January. Because of his fine work, we accumu- lated enough money to enable both juniors and seniors to attend the prom free of charge. The prom, put on by our junior class, was held in the Elks Lodge in Urbana. Since our other class spon- sor, Miss Agnes Nelson, retired at the end of the year, we honored her at the prom, and gave her a traveling clock. We were very sorry to see both her and Mr. Senn leave. With the varied events, our junior year of fun passed quickly, and as Susie Raushenberger de- fended our class in the Hatchet Oration, we were ready for our final year. SENIOR— Seniors at last! It was a difficult struggle at times and some of us wondered occasionally if we would make it—but we did and our senior year has been terrific. To start the year off right, we elected Butch Orr, president; Bob Watts, vice-president; Ron Eskew, secretary; Duke Goodwin, treasurer; and Jim Elam, Rosemary representative. Soon after this, began our football games followed by the hops in our gym. The year progressed, high- lighted by the Tri-Hi, Christmas and U Club Dances. Our plays ond Terrapin show were suc- cesses as a result of the hard work done by the students. Many of our senior boys actively par- ticipated in basketball, swimming, wrestling, golf, and track, enabling us to win a number of victories in these sports. Although we were busy all year, the last month of school brought even more activities and responsibilities. Honors Day and awards assemblies took place; various mem- bers of our class were honored at luncheons, and our plans for class night, skip day, and gradu- ation began. After class night, tonight, only the prom and graduation are left. It is sad to think of leaving UHS and the many friendships that we have made; it will be difficult to restrain from cheering every time we hear the magic number 54 ; but that number will always remind us of four won- derful years as students at Urbano High.

Skilled hands and chemical processes and always intriguing. Your year book is the result of many procedures . . . photography, copy writing, art, engraving, printing and binding, plus salesmanship, accounting, etc. The graphic arts industry has many branches and many opportunities.
