Tch, tch. They say such reminiscence is a sign of getting old. We certainly don't want that, so let's turn on the T.V. set for a news broadcast and confront ourselves with present-day affairs and problems. The very first thing we hear is the name of one of our classmates, Eldon Wilson, who has been promoted to the position of 1st vice- president of the T.V. network to which we are listening. Eldon is a news-cast specialist and has done great work in bringing the cor- poration's news-casts to be the best in the world. Nice going, Eldon. Now we have the commercial before the newscast. Well, heavenly days, look who sponsors this program. The Howard Roberts' reducing salon, with Turkish baths in New York City, Chicago, and San Francisco. We would certainly like to see Howard now. Do you suppose he started the business for his own convenience? Now for some news. Goodness, that an- nouncer looks familiar. Well, no wonder, it's Jim Keefauver, who claims that he is a regu- lar patron of Howard's Turkish baths. Jim still has that familiar grin, almost like you could reach out and shake hands with him. First off on the news today we see that Virginia Peterson, personal secretary to Jack Martin, who is president of the Bank of America, has announced that the bank will for- ward a $2 billion loan to England. Ah yes, it looks like England is still expecting. Senator Marvin White announces that Congress has passed a bill permitting the con- struction of a dam on Spoon River between Maquon and London Mills, Illinois, and that the contract for building the dam has been granted to the Rock Construction Co., the largest construction company in Illinois, and owned and operated by our old pal, BILL Rock. Donald Sheckler, national president of the Farm Bureau, predicts a bumper crop of corn this year. Donald was a little corny at school sometimes, too. John Dallefeld, the famous stock broker and economist, predicts a slight raise in the stock market for the summer months. Lawanda Thurman, nurse for a famous dentist in Chicago, announces the invention of a painless, noiseless dentist’s drill. Ah yes, the world has been needing those for a long time. Marjorie Cannon, the famous botanist and president of the London Mills Orchards, Inc., claims that she has discovered a new fruit. It is a cross between peach, apple, pear, apricot and cherry. She has decided to call it the ''papae.” Nancy Masterson, the famous woman de- tective and crime expert, says that she has found a new method of criminal identification and is using it to track down the famous armed car robbers of 1949- They may get that case solved some of these days. Nancy Lindstrom, owner of the world's largest balloon factory, has discovered a new puncture proof balloon. It seems Nancy worked her way up from the bottom; she was a balloon tester when she started. We knew she could make good use of all that wind. Jim is signing off now. He gives way to the news of the world of sports, brought to us by none other than Firmon Melton, the modern-day Bill Stern. He opens the broadcast with the finals in the World Ping Pong championship matches and we hear that Ivan Combs has copped the title. Great work, Ivan. Mr. Pogue always predicted a brilliant ping pong future for you. Walter Platt and Charles Halsey, test drivers for Ford Motor Co., were the winners of the Indianapolis Speedway races with a car they designed themselves. I'll bet they never 11 Proi)L ropriecij ( continued ) thought they would get paid for wearing out Fords. Blout’s Globetrotters, headed by player- coach, Allen Blout, are making a one week appearance at Madison Square. Tickets are now on sale. Emma Rench has won the woman’s wres- tling championship of the world. She de- feated her opponent and won the title in a terrific bout in Madison Square Garden. Firmon signs olf and our next reporter is Joy Widmer who handles society and other news. She has become a second Louella Parsons. She announces that Rolland Howerter, the famous bass soloist, is giving a concert at Carnegie Hall in Radio City, New York. Among his many songs is a famous Spanish song which he will feature at his concert. It looks as though Mr. Babbitt's struggling hours of Spanish finally paid off. Good luck, Rolland. Robert Wolford’s famous dance band is now playing at the Palmer House Hotel in Chicago. He features Johnny Stevenson at the drums. Johnny is going to be a second Gene Kruppa. Robbie always did like Chi- cago hotels. Marilyn Morey and Barbara Luman have won their way to a high position in T.V. vaudeville. The girls have teamed up with their marimba and cornet. We wonder if Marilyn still plays the base drum once in a while too. Helen Nesbit has recently been acclaimed pin-up of the year by a joint committee from the Army, Navy, and Marine Corps. She gives much of the credit to the great works of her artist, Clarence Cook, who has his studios in Hollywood. Berta Lou Conlon, the famous comedian, now has her own T.V. show and will probably soon be recognized as another Faye Emerson. All those corny jokes she pulls are products of Laurel Wilmot, her chief writer. Laurel was in good practice for a job like that. Joan Folkenroth has followed in her father’s footsteps, at least partly. She has be- come a hair stylist and is one of the many hair stylists pushing the idea of cru-cuts for women. Lola Marlette is now giving Paris some- strong competition from Fairview, Illinois as she continues to rock the fashion world with her remarkable creations. Maybe it is Marilyn Cox, Lola's model, who puts over the clothes. Lola’s creations go on sale first at Barbara Doubet’s shop in Peoria, Illinois. Phyllis Bauman wins an Academy Award for her brilliant performance in the recent pro- duction of Dimples.’’ She gives much of the credit to her director, Don Bai l, and her hair stylist, Jo Ann Baxter, who followed the example set by her mother. Mary Alice McMahon, the famous cos- metic producer, who invented ’’Morning on Long Island perfume, announces another smash hit. It is called Corral-No. 5. Marian Dancy, head of the English de- partment at Valley high, claims she has dis- covered a way to make English classes ten times less boring. She doesn't say whether she means for the students or for the teachers. Joan Burkhead announces that she has de- veloped a new hair dye. It is especially ef- fective on red-heads. Why would Joan invent something like that? Betty Widcer, the world renowned in- terior decorator, has started new fads in interior decorating when unveiling her work done on several Fairview buildings. Joy closes her broadcast with a word from the sponsor of her part of the program, the Putman employment agency, owned and op- erated by Phyllis Putman, and specializing at finding jobs for secretaries. That's Phyllis, always helping someone. That broadcast didn't help that longing for school days any. It seemed to have something in it about every one of our old buddies of the class of '52. It seems as though they all had lots of good luck and we are sure that no one could be more deserving. 12 ass We, the members of the senior class of Valley High, being of sound mind and memory and realizing that we are at the end of our journey through Valley High, make, publish, and declare this to be our last will and testament.

The Student Council is an organization whose members are selected by the student body. The representatives and presidents from every class and the presidents of such organiza- tions as the F.F.A., F.H.A., G.A.A., the Editor of the Voice and the Editor of the Annual are members of the Student Council. The president is elected by the whole school in a regular election complete with primaries. He or she is elected from the Junior class and is president for one year, and is the leader of the organization. The Student Council at its first meeting elects its own officers, a vice-president, secre- tary, and a treasurer, from the members of the Student Council. The Student Council holds a meeting every month on the first Tuesday following class meetings. The business of the Student Council is con- ducted according to parliamentary procedure. Every student's complaint should be made to the Student Council and thought and work will be given to it. The members of the Student Council this year are President, Marvin White; Senior Class Representative, Emma Rench; Senior President, Jack Martin; Junior Class Representative, Charles Luman; Junior President, Tom Good- ing; Sophomore Class Representative, Jim Smith; Sophomore President, Clinton Cannon; F.F.A. President, Donald Sheckler; F.H.A. President, Marilyn Cox; G.A.A. President, Berta Lou Conion; Annual Editor, Virginia Peterson; and Voice Editor, Joy Widmer. The officers of the Student Council this year are Marvin White, president; Donald Sheck- ler, vice-president; Berta Lou Conion, secre- tary; and Marilyn Cox, treasurer. Some of the Student Council's main duties are as follows: 1. Approving dates chosen by a class or an organization to hold a party. 2. Sending representatives to the State Stu- dent Council Convention. 3. Teaching beginners dancing. 4. Making improvements and additions to the school, such as: a. School flag. b. School loyalty song. c. Bells spaced at the noon hour to prevent crowding in the lunch room. 5. Sponsoring the assembly programs. 6. Sponsoring the March of Dimes, Junior Red Cross Membership, Heart Fund, etc. 7. Sponsoring Recreation Round-Up. The Student Council should be kept busy with suggestions because it is the best way that students can voice their opinions on how the school is being run. The work of the Student Council is not only for the present year, but their work will run into the years to come. 0. 3t. Of.

During the year the Valley F.F.A. chapter made a number of trips. The entire F.F.A. went to Peoria to visit the Caterpillar Tractor Co., Stock Yards and Armour Packing Co. The entire chapter went to Moline and were entertained by the John Deere Plow Co. In November the Senior Ag. class went to Chi- cago and attended the International Livestock Show, went through Swift's Packing Plant, went shopping and attended a hockey game. The Valley F.F.A. chapter was well repre- sented at the Sectional, County and Illinois State Fair in swine, beef, dairy and poultry de- partments. At the county and sectional fair there were 36 exhibitors in the four depart- ments. At the Illinois State Fair there were four exhibitors in swine, one in beef, 14 in poultry. Poultry was exhibited in both junior and open shows. The Valley chapter had two members who received their State Farmers degree at the Illi- nois State Convention. They were Marvin Essex and Gordon Markley. Fred Spillman and Gordon Markley won production awards in the sectional production contest. Fred won on his beef project and Gordon on corn. Gor- don also won the District contest award. We, the members of the Valley chapter, wish to thank Mr. Harn for the time he has spent with us. 26 T A e f r A. « ?

The contents of the paper consists of organization news, features, jokes, and last but not least, gossip. The Voice exchanges papers with ten other surrounding schools. Subscrip- tions were sold to the alumni and students who formerly attended Valley. Free copies were also sent to the alumni who are now in the service. We would like to take this opportunity to thank Mr. Wine, the paper’s advisor, who helped us through another successful year in publishing The Voice. With- out his guidance, patience, and helpful ideas it would have not had such success. 30 FOOTBALL PERSONNEL James Mason Norman Lindstrom Bobby Elliott John Fulmer Clinton Cannon Joseph Kalley James Smith Bud Lehnausen Kenneth Cameron Dick Vin Camp Donald Ball Charles Smith Jack Scott Ed Hahn Gail Mathis MANAGERS Bill Bauman Larry Flcisher James Keefauvcr Jim Norris Allen Elliott Donald Higgs Jan Ryden Marvin White Eldon Utsinger Arlen Walters Andy Anderson Firmon Melton Howard Roberts Bill Outs James Widger Robert Woolsey COACHES Mr. Wine Mr. Pogue Marna Rae Shrevcs CHEERLEADERS Shirley Swanson Myrna Essex Jane Downin Carol Ehrenhart 32 football The 1951 Viking football season was in another building year. Although victories were not plentiful during the past season this 1951 edition was an interesting team to watch. Improved blocking, crushing tackles, and shifty running became the rule rather than the exception. Valley's team had only five seniors: Don Ball, Jim Keefauver, Marvin White, Howard Roberts and Firmon Melton, leaving many good prospects for a great team in the years ahead. Valley also had to get used to Bushnell-Prairie City 27 Astoria 40 Farmington Res. Cuba Avon V.I.T. Lewi stow n the new offensive system of Coach Max Pogue. The highlight of the 1951 season came in the final game when Valley held Lewistown, the 1951 Olympic Conference champs, for three and one-half quarters before losing 7 to 0. Valley had one touchdown called back because of a penalty. This game showed the tremen- dous improvement of the Viking gridiron crew and gave Valley fans bright hopes for future gridiron campaigns. 0 7 31 6 12 19 0 Valley Valley 0................................Valley 20.................................Valley 34.................................Valley 26.................................Valley 7...............................

The ’51-52 Viking basketball squad, composed primarily of sophomores and juniors, and lacking the height which has become so essential to basketball success, nevertheless was a representative Viking team, and promises many victories in future seasons.

Miss Freese was the director of vocal music and Mr. Winkle had charge of the band. Last summer the band played a total of ten concerts. The highlight of these activities was a trip to the Illinois State Fair at Springfield. Our band received a superior rating, for which each member was presented a medal and the school was given a beautiful plaque. The band played at all home football and basketball games. Four spring concerts were given, one in each community representing the school district. It also participated in the county music festival. It entered the 1951 District and the State Contest, receiving a II rating in the State Contest. The vocal music department consisted of a 64 voice mixed chorus. The vocal department was also represented by the following: Valley Quartet, Sophomore Octet, and soloists. Six people were candidates for All-State Activities at Champaign. All six were chosen: Marilyn Suydam, Virginia Peterson, Carol Kreider, Rolland Howerter, Donald Smith, and Donald Locke. The chorus was directed by the well-known Harry E. Wilson. The vocal department assisted in the Band Minstrel. An operetta, Meet Arizona, was held March 8. The chorus attended a chorus festival at Farmington March 25.

The Mexican theme was appropriately carried out in colors of red, white and green, the national Mexican colors. The gymnasium was decorated with crepe paper streamers of these colors in at- tractive combinations. Over the dance floor a polychromatic display of balloons was hung. A festive array of red sombreros added to the Mexican atmosphere. A dinner of baked chicken and trimmings was served to 115 guests by the junior moth- ers. Eight sophomore couples served the din- ner. The waitresses were dressed in gay Mexican skirts and blouses. Marna Rae Shreves and Charles Luman were dressed in typical Mexican costumes. The charro” costume is the fiesta garb of the Mexican cowboy. It consists of black trousers and a vest covered with white braid, red ker- chief and wide-brimmed sombrero. On his shoulder he carries a serape. The china poblana costume originated in the lovely city of Puebla. Many years ago a Chinese girl was sold as a slave in Acapulco. She was pur- chased and brought to Puebla where the people fell in love w ith her and her gay costume. It is now a typical fiesta dress of Mexico. After dinner, the seniors were welcomed by Mary Alice McMahon, president of the junior class. Larry Latimer, senior class president, gave the response. The class prophecy was read by Mary Alice McMahon. Carol Vollmar read the senior class will. The Mexican theme was carried out in the program by a medley of Mexican folk songs played on the marimba by Marilyn Morey. Marna Rae Shreves gave her own dance in- terpretations of the tango Jalousie.” Mr. Blout, president of the board of education, and Mr. Delabar, superintendent of schools, spoke briefly to the gathering. During an intermission in the dance, the old Mexican custom of breaking the pinata was ably carried out by Sue Anderson who did the breaking. The pinata, made in the shape of a woman, was filled with candy. The object was to break the pinata with a stick while- blindfolded. As the candy fell to the floor, everyone ran to pick up his share. Dance music was furnished by Morse Patty's orchestra. The senior class sponsor was Charles Harn. Harry Babbit was the junior advisor. 8 Senior (Pr rom I AdiuoQ spdnry (Patrons LONDON MILLS Benson Sales and Service Elliott and Murphy Garage Ahlgren Recreation L. and O.
