Warren High School - Echoes Yearbook (Warren, IL)

Text from Pages 1 - 68 of the 1959 volume:

ran i ci This, our last year at Warren High, has been an eventful year --perhaps even an historic year. We have seen advancements in our school, in our community, in our nation, and in the world. We have seen the birth of the Space Age. the increase in man's destructive power, and the definite need for technical education. We realize that the present world situation offers greater challenges to its youth, and we feel prepared to meet these challenges. We believe that our years in high school have served to prepare us for this future rather than to provide us with a past. We proudly present FUTURAMA. ? z6Ce (?o tte tt Dedication 5 Faculty 7 Seniors 11 Undergraduates 19 Organizations 27 Senior Page 42 Athletics 43 Patrons 51 Crofton, Stamford Road Bowdon, Cheshire England To the pupils and faculty of Warren High School: Forms instead of classes; head mistresses and head masters instead of superin- tendents; masters and mistresses instead of teachers; for the most part, separate boys' and girls' schools instead of our co-educational schools; grammar, secondary- modern and comprehensive schools instead of our junior and senior high schools; terms instead of semesters; several long holidays and school until near the end of July instead of our less frequent and shorter breaks and a long summer vacation; eleven pluses and General Certificate of Education exams, upon which all promotion depends, instead of our semester exams and system of grading; school uniforms for students and often academic robes for teachers instead of our casual dress; cricket, socker, net-ball, and la crosse instead of baseball, football, basketball and volleyball --these are some of the many ways in which English schools are different from American. In England students are streamed into different kinds of schools depending upon how they rate in exams which are given when they are just past eleven years old. Those who rate highest go into the grammar schools, many of which have been long established and pride themselves upon their traditions and academic standings. Stu- dents who do not rate grammar school acceptance enter the secondary modern schools, where their education aims to prepare them for the kind of lives they will be living. The comprehensive schools are an experiment which encorporates the features of both the grammar and the secondary modern school. The next rating for a grammar school student depends entirely upon his G.C.E. exams for which the fifth form stu- dents are preparing. If they pass these exams they may stay on in school for a year or two preparing for teachers' training or, if their records are high enough and they can win admittance, for university. In Altrincham, boys' and girls' schools are so completely separated that all my impressions must be based on the girls' school. The Lancaster shire and Cheshire accent is quite different from our middle Western American, and at first there may have been a little difficulty in understanding and being understood. Perhaps you and Miss Walkley have noticed the difference there. Though there are differences in our accent, our idiom, our terminology, our school traditions, and our emphasis in edu- cation, I've learned that girls will be girls in England as well as in America, and though I've missed knowing the boys, I'd venture to guess that boys will be boys too. We do have a common heritage in language literature and much else in common too, as an exchange of teachers and pupils has taught us on both sides of the ocean, I feel sure. Best wishes to you in Warren High School in all your endeavors. I shall look for- ward to being back with you next year. Sincerely, Edith Groom 'DetUcatcott £cUt£ For the first time in more than thirty yearn, Miss Groom was not present to welcome us back to school last Sep- tember. We have missed her during her year in England, but her absence has made us more aware of her efforts. Miss Groom has become one of the assets of our school system. Her high standards, endless work, depth of per- ception, constant devotion, understanding of young people, and keen wit have made our English department one of high esteem. She has guided our thoughts, encouraged our efforts, chal- lenged our minds, tested our achievements, and repri- manded our laziness. She has helped and watched us grow intellectually, and she has shown a sincere and individual interest in each and every one of us. To Miss Groom, the Seniors of 1959 dedicate their annual, THE ECHOES. x£ £cCucatco i, yu uUtut act acltool. LEFT TO RIGHT: Gregory Rowe, Francis Davis, Robert Wing, Dr. C. G.

This was to build (1) a two room addition at Nora, (2) a two room addition at Apple River, (3) an eleven room ele- mentary school at Warren, and (4) a new high school gymnasium. Work began almost immediately on the gym under the supervision of the architect, Raymond Orput of Rockford. Work fell behind because of the harsh cold weather in January. With few interruptions during the summer, the workmen managed to have the new grade rooms completed at the start of school in September 1958. The high school gym was completed a short time later. After all projects had been completed, an open house was held on Decem- ber 7, 1958, from two until four p.m., at the three centers of District 205. Much credit goes to the school board for these much needed facilities. This seven man governing body meets the second Monday night of every month, averaging an additional special meeting each month. The school board consists of the following members: Dr. C. G. Ward--President Robert Barker--Secretary Francis Davis Robert Wing Gordon Baibach Gregory Rowe Edward Gerber We should all realize the unpaid efforts these men have made to secure better schools for our community. 4 t zcJtex avecte et uutcf; Theodore C.

'livens Throughout the school year, these bus drivers have been entrusted with the safety of almost every student in Warren High. While driving on their daily routes, on trips, and to basketball games, they have more than adequately fulfilled the responsibilities of their jobs. STANDING: Stewart Breed, Herman Krippendorf.

The '59 Yearbook Staff wishes to thank you, our subscribers, for buying a record number of books. We also wish to thank the merchants of Warren, Apple River, and Nora for supporting us, almost one hundred per cent, by buying advertising space. There is very little that need be said about the staff, except that we have labored long and hard (longer and harder than we planned) on this new style book. Our sole project is now in your hands, and whether or not we have succeeded depends upon your opinion of this Echoes. ♦ 17 In memory of Hel 1941 1 Helen’s joi Yney through life was cut short by tragedy on December 31, 1958. Although jin automobile accident claimed Helen's young life, and she was with us comparatively few years, we look back upon these years with a realization that her short life was full and complete. Hers was not a youth of wandering ching. She had found herself, established her ideals, and seredely y them. Helen possessed a fine upright character, an undauntjed, sense of responsibility, a willingness to help others with he .nd a sharp awareness of the age in which she lived. Quietly s dastically. We sincerely feel that our lives were enriched by ns with Helen. We are now more keenly aware of the value of Assets: cheerfulness, stability, and devotion. Perhaps this was ,on earth; if so, it was well carried out. There is an empty sp s roll that will be passed over, but the emptiness in our heart .11 never be filled. Crossing the Bar Sunset and evening star, And one clear call for me ! And may there be no moaning of the bar, When I put out to sea, But such a tide as, moving, seems asleep, Too full for sound and foam,- When that which drew from out the boundless deep Turns again home. Twilight and evening bell, And after that the dark! And may there be no sadness of farewell When I embark; For though from out our bourne of Time and Place The flood may bear me far,- I hope to see my Pilot face to face When I have crossed the bar.

Next came magazine sales and a dinner with the winning team as guests--the girls. The class play Professor How Could You netted a record amount of money. Bake sales and selling refreshments at games were other means of enlarg- ing their treasury. The long awaited, carefully planned Junior- Senior Prom was a huge success and culminated their activities for this year. The juniors thank Mr. Scott, their advisor, for all his efforts to make their year a worthwhile one. Under the guidance of Mr. Esch, the Sophomore Class was very active this year selling magazines, holding bake sales, and selling bas- ketball season tickets. The sophomores are putting forth extra effort to build up their treasury for a senior trip, as their class is the largest that has ever entered Warren High. P%e46i tet€ The Freshman Class of 1958-59has proved to be a very ambitious group. Their sponsor, Mr. Bluett, helped them plan several projects to build the all important class treasury. The class sold refresh- ments at two basketball games. A dance was also planned as a bene- fit for the curtain fund. cmizationd 0 0 0 Student (Zouucct csio46 aectcou t£e atudeut fody, Ce zde 6 o£ t6e £utu e.

The Student Council is a means of communication between the student body and the directing body of the school. It is the voice of the people in Warren High. Its members, three from each class, represent the views of each age group. The excellent series of assembly programs presented this year were chosen by the Student Council. They are a broadening addition to the education of tomor- row’s citizens. This year a very good play was given by the University of Wis- consin Players and a graduate student spoke on the U. S. missile program. Other interesting and varied programs were presented. The Student Council assumes the responsibility for many school social events. The Homecoming parade with floats, bands, and prizes; the dance with king, queen, and court; and the concession at the game were all projects of the Stu- dent Council. Another project was the Christmas program with music, Santa Claus, and refreshments. This year a youth center, the Volcano Club, was started in the Community House by the Mother's Study Club and the Lion's Club. A youth board made up of two members from each class was organized to bring together the sponsors and the young people. The board consists of: Linda Heid--President, Ronald Thomas-- Vice President, Brenda Rummell--Secretary-T reasurer, Roger Eckerman, Anne Conyne, Jim Graham, Pat Bondele, and Ronald Hawes. Membership of $1.00 a year offers a variety of facilities including dancing, ping pong, shuffle board, checkers, cards, chess, and a place to congregate every Saturday night. It is a fine club, and the students of Warren High are grateful to those who made it possible. 28 'putune 4( t Uc z yutcCaxtce frvt, to uvno4v 4, youtJi. SEATED: Mrs. Balbach--Sponsor, J.

Kent The Future Teachers Chapter of Warren High has added many new mem- bers in the past few years. Young people across the nation are showing an increasing interest in the teaching profession, and Warren FTA members reflect this trend. Today's students are concerned with the education problems of today and the youth of tomorrow. In October the club selected Susan Sincox, Janice McKee, Linda Heid, and Sandra Jane McLain to attend an FTA Workshop at Shimer College. The girls won a gavel for representing a chapter with such a large percentage of active boy members. The Frank L. and Helen S. Burns County FTA Club held its fall meeting at the Warren Community House on October 21. County President Janice McKee presided. Miss Walkley gave a delightful talk on English folk songs. Paul S. Conklin, Superintendent of Winnebago County Schools gave an in- spiring speech, I Would Teach Again. A student teaching day was held with FTA members teaching high school and grade school classes of their choice. The teachers did a great deal of preparing for their day at the head of the class. They realized the work required by the teaching profession. 29 putu%e tmesUca . . . T (Je cine t6e ouCcte 6 6o te6f tfiosttCA f4vPt€SltC tctcctic,. FIRST ROW: B. Davis --Parlia- mentarian, D.

Week, the annual Mother-Daughter Banquet, and the installa- tion of new officers. Under the splendid guidance of Mrs. Balbach, the F.H.A. has been very active. She deserves much credit for her help in making the Warren F.H.A. a successful and worthwhile organization. 'pcctu'ie 'p xsi K€sui s4 t itc z . . . fo enoe. FIRST ROW: G. Balbach, B. Holland, D.

The Warren Future Farmers of America, in affiliation with the state and national associations, has completed its eighth year of existence in Warren High School. The erection of the ag-shop building in 1951 has paved the way for the chapter's standing in the Section One records and for the excep- tional recognition of the F.F.A. in rural Warren. The F.F.A. boasts a membership of forty aggressive young men, of which a great many are fresh- men. At the beginning of the school year, the F.F.A. officers and Mr. Dickinson constructed a tenta- tive program of work which organized the activities of the club for the entire year. Chapter activities for the past year included scrap drives, calendar ad sales, and Christmas card sales. The proceeds from the sale of calendar ads will be used to purchase a livestock scales for community service. The profit from the sales of Christmas cards is added to the club treasury for future use. Again this year the F.F.A. offered the chain gilt to a member of the club. A special committee se- lected Bill Hughes to receive the gilt. In October the F.F.A. sponsored a Parents Night. At this meeting Mr. Dickinson and the officers discussed with the parents of members the chapter's pur- pose, which is emphasized by the F.F.A. motto Learning to do; Doing to learn, Earning to live, Living to serve. During Thanksgiving weekend approximately thirty members, Mr. and Mrs. Dick- inson, and Mr. Bill Hicks journeyed to Chicago to see the International Fatstock Show and several other points of interest. One of the highlights of the year was the Parent-Son Banquet held in the spring. An F.F.A. quartet presented several vocal selections at the banquet. Members of the Warren F.F.A. have done much for the betterment of Warren rural life and for better understanding between the town and rural residents. Each member will long remember this year's accomplishments of his F.F.A. chapter. With the outstanding work of President Bill McFadden and Mr. Dickinson, the achievements of the chapter have excelled in both quality and quantity. Five other F.F.A. members who deserve special recognition for their services are the other officers: Vice President, Denis Toay; Secretary, Bill Holland; Treasurer, Bob Holland; Sentinel, Jerry Scott; and Reporter, Glenn Balbach. s4t6Cetcc s4 occ ztco t zcCo c zte4 ftAy tcaC Left to Right, INSIDE ROW: J.

Bon- jour. A record sized GAA, almost seventy members, enjoyed the facilities of the new gymnasium this year. Three groups each met one day a week dur- ing the noon hour for a forty minute play period. The girls work for awards which are presented for participating in twenty-five athletic meet- ings. First year awards are orange numerals, second year--an orange W, third year - -a blue and white I, and fourth year--a blue outline of the state of Illinois. GAA clubs throughout the area get together twice a year for play days. Participants are divided into several teams and compete in various games. There are songs, skits, and food. It’s a day of fun and fellowship with girls from other schools. This year ten Warren girls and Mrs. Bour- quin attended play days at Freeport and Scales Mound. The girl asks boy social event of the season, the Sadie Hawkins dance, is put on each year by the GAA. The highlight of the evening was the presentation of Sadie Hawkins, Evelyn Hurst, and Lil' Abner, Bob Hoyt. One of the club's major projects is sending two junior girls to GAA Camp at Lake Geneva, Wisconsin. Camp delegates bring home many good ideas for fund raising and club improvement. The organization's purpose, physical fitness, is obviously carried out by the looks of the trim girls at Warren High. Officers are: Bette Davis, President; Judy Bonjour, Vice President; Janice Krippendorf, Secretary; Helen Doubler, Treasurer; Nancy Mc- Fadden, Reporter. Mrs. Bourquin is sponsor. 32 £etten He i 000 cua ne c t6'i cKp6out t6e asiea t t faot zCC, z66et4 zCC cutcC z4e zCC Left to Right, SEATED: G. Holland--Secretary-Treasurer, B. Holland. FIRST ROW: B.

TO (?tct6 Twenty-two winners of those big orange W's make up the W Club this year. The club's first project was a snake dance on the eve of Homecoming. A huge group assembled at the school house and walked, ran, sang, yelled, and snaked their way through the main streets. Spirits were raised by this enthusiastic bunch, although participants almost collapsed. The club was represented in the Homecoming parade by a car covered with streamers and their favorite letter. After the Gratiot basketball game the lettermen held a record dance. The Warriors' win turned the dance into quite a victorious affair. The W Club and the Cheerleaders are two groups at Warren High working primarily to promote school spirit. Their cause is a worthwhile one, and the efforts are ap- preciated. 33 LEFT TO RIGHT, in front of desk: J. Westaby, B. Rummell, C- Meier, D. Geach. Behind desk: N. Mead, J. Kluck, E. Hurst, R.

This active group only two years old, consists of about forty girls. About twenty of the more experienced members serve as librarians. Beginners must work up to this post. A year of library work earns one half credit. Marian the Librarian is quite a busy girl at Warren High. A steady influx of new books, delinquent borrowers, and ever changing periodicals occupy her time. There's hardly time to shoo away the male admirers flocked around the desk. Under the direction of Mrs. Olson the library has taken on a new look and new prestige. Attractive bulletin boards are covered with best seller jackets. A new bookcase is filled with the latest dictionaries and new editions of clas- sics. Special attention has been given to seniors with college guides and career books. Students can hardly resist reading. Every month candy sales are held to increase the club's treasury. This money is used to purchase sterling silver pins for each girl who has earned one half a credit. This year the wealthy librarians bought beautiful Christmas ornaments and took over the job of decorating the study hall tree. The girls on the Library Staff are girls who have joined the club, not as joiners, but as conscientious workers willing to give up their free time for the benefit of others. Thank you, Mrs. Olson and librarians, for a job well done. 1958-59 officers are: June Westaby--President, Carole Meier--Vice Presi- dent, Joyce Westaby--Secretary, Brenda Rummell--Club Treasurer, Janice McKee--Staff Treasurer, and Donna Geach--Reporter.

The band moved into their new homeroom” this year in the new gym. The extra space was greatly appreciated. The band mothers donated a new piano which is used for school dances as well as for band work. The members voted to march and play at all home football games, and a pep band played at all home basketball games. Student directors: Janice Cline, Carolyn Burrows, and Donna Geach. Band Club officers: President--Carolyn Burrows, Vice President--Janice McKee, Seeretary-Treasurer - -Nancy McFadden. Each year, in the spring, some of the band members spend much of their free time preparing for the district and state music contests. Both instrumental solos and ensembles appeared this year, along with their instructor, Mrs. Geach, at the dis- trict contest held at Galena. Only those with superior ratings advanced to the state contest. The following students participated in the district contest: Bob Hoyt, Marsha Beall, Bill Yeager.

The story takes place in a small college town in the spring. Professor Keats Perry, played by Roger Teuscher, was constantly in a turmoil with one of his young and pretty history students. Janice McKee as Vicky Randolph filled this position very well for she could really pack a wallop while the professor was always on the receiving end. Keat's dear beloved Grandma Perry, who was always fussing over him, was portrayed by Judy Bonjour. She thought her comical old husband Grandpa Perry, done by Jim Graham, was flirting with young damsels. Keats wanted to fill the retiring college dean's position, but there was just one little catch. To become dean, Keats had to find a wife. When Keats' longtime friend Johm Appleby, played by Bob Holland, found out, he was more than willing to help. With a big wager going on over who was to become Keats' wife, everyone selected a candidate. The candi- dates for the Wife Derby were: Pricilla Morley, filled by Brenda Rummell, was John's candidate; Tootsie Bean, a jolly spinster por- trayed by Dorothy Geilenfeldt, was the sporting English butler Boggin's, Ronnie Dettwiler, choice; June Westaby, a southern charmer named Valerie Whitman, was Vicky's candidate; Grandpa's secret selection was Vicky. There goes the props ! Grandpa, pretending to be Keats, called Pricilla, Tootsie, and Valerie and proposed to them. Tootsie's big brother, Butcher Boy Bean played by Bob Upman, and John Goldhagen as Butcher Boy's shadow, Slugger, helped to make sure Tootsie was not jilted. To prevent Keats from be- coming a bigamist, Marlene Hale, Marsha Beall, and Duane Larson posed as his children with John disguised as his wife, Lula. In the end, it turned out for the best with Pricilla marrying John, Tootsie marrying Boggins, and Keats marrying Vicki. Valerie had had enough of college professors and walked out. What happened to the Wager? Grandma Perry decided it would come in handy for that spiffy new spring dress that she saw at Finchley's ! There are many important off stage activities in presenting a play. The student director, Rose Hess, and the general manager, John Neese, spent much time and worked exceptionally hard in helping to make Professor, How Could You? a success. Mrs. Balbach was in charge of the makeup and Mrs. Richard Newman styled the hair for the char- acters. Marlene Hale headed the refreshment committee composed of Brenda Rummell, Nancy Trost, Jim Davis and Charles Fosler to sell cupcakes and cider at intermission. John Neese, Dorothy Geilenfeldt, and Donald Olthoff supervised the ticket sales. Duane Larson and Bill Yeager were responsible for the sound effects and lighting. Se U vi6 — ?utcvie On May 25. 1955. forty-two eighth graders from Warren, Apple River, and Nora received their diplomas in the Warren High School auditorium. This was the first of our many fulfilling experiences in Warren High. In our freshman year our class began to develop its own distinct personality. There were many freshmen participating in school activities: band, chorus, athletics, and organizations. We were a group working together to prepare for a future. Our advisor, Mr. Gene Lee. helped us adjust to the newness of high school life. As sophomores we became more aware of the world we were a part of, a world centered around our education. The first thrill of our junior year was the arrival of our long awaited class rings. Those shiny gold rings told the story--we were upperclassmen. Junior magazine sales broke previous records, and we celebrated with a spaghetti dinner. Not only the cast, but each and every one of us helped to make Adam's Evening, our Junior Class Play, a success. Our Sophomore and Junior Class ad- visor, Mr. Dickinson, worked long and hard with us to make our prom. The Deep Blue Sea, one of the most memorable evenings of our lives. Our mothers prepared a delicious banquet which pre- ceded the dance. King Bill McFadden and Queen Patricia Wolfram reigned from a huge pink sea shell with their attendants: Linda Heid, Bette Davis, Judy DeMuth, Janice Krippendorf, Roger Eckerman, Bill Holland, Denis Toay, and Gerar Holland. When we returned to school in September of 1958 we realized what it meant to be seniors. There were no longer any classmates to look up to--we had reached the summit. With our advisor, Mr. Tucker, we began the year by making preparations for the yearbook, the senior play, the senior trip, and graduation. As individuals we began thinking about college, nurses training, teaching, engineer- ing, jobs, and perhaps marriage. At present we are thirty-four young idealists waiting to become alumni on that magical evening-- commencement. We are looking to the future with confidence, courage, and faith. Perhaps our confi- dence will be shaken, and our courage weakened, but our faith shall never be lost. For four wonder- ful years we have worked together, played together, and dreamed together. These memories, asso- ciations, and experiences will not be forgotten. For these are the years that have molded our personalities, that have helped to make us the well-rounded citizens of tomorrow. As we graduate we feel sentiment, expectation, and above all--appreciation for all we have gained as a group and as individuals at Warren High. Settc i PUy — f} z tu4siy The Senior Class presented January Thaw on April 9 and 10 in the high school auditorium. The comedy, a Broadway hit, was written by William Roos based on the novel by Bellamy Partridge. This blend of modern suburbia and Yankee-style living was well received by large audiences. The seniors enjoyed everything about the play, from hunting antiques to learning what Yankee ingenuity really meant. Mrs. Olson ably directed the play and was greatly responsible for its success. The cast included: Patsy Lange as Frieda the maid, Bonnye Watson as Marge Gage, Glenn Balbach as Herbert Gage, the Gage girls--Patricia Wolfram as Barbara, Evelyn Hurst as Sarah, and Linda Heid as Paula, Denis Toay as Jonathan Rockwood, Carolyn Burrows as Mathilda Rockwood, Bob Hoyt as their son Matt, Roger Eckerman as Barbara's fiance George, Jerry Scott as Uncle Walter, Bill Gallagher as Carson the Constable, and Bill Holland as the lawyer Mr. Loomis. The Gage family seeks peace in an old farmhouse. There, mother remodels coffee grinders into lamps, while father tries to write a best seller. In his concentration he ignores the arrival of Jonathan and Mathilda Rockwood, who have the right to live in the Gage home. No one had worried about that clause in the deed, since the Rockwoods were supposed to be dead. A contest for posses- sion begins with neither able to turn the other out. Jonathan and Mathilda repossess the antiques , restored by the Gages and use them for their original purposes much to father's amusement--until the electricity fails. While the Rockwoods, feast on ham and biscuits hot off the old woodburner, the Gages eat cornflakes and olives. Finally the family, against father's orders, join the Rockwoods since their appetites are stronger than their loyalties. It even looks as if Barbara had eloped with the Rockwood's son. Complete disaster! But in the delightful ending, all is happily and intelligently solved. The play was a captivating comedy, full of sparkle, flavor, and new ideas.

Under the direction of Mr. Kenneth Scott and Mr. Wayne Sandman, the Warriors played better football and won more games than they have for several seasons. Warren ended with a 4-2-2 seasonal record. A 2-2-2 conference record tied the team for third place in the U. S. Grant Conference. Defensively, Warren finished in second place with only 30 points scored against them. Realizing the importance of winning the first game of the season, the fighting eleven won their non-conference opener against Milledgeville 25-0. The Aquin Bulldogs surprised the Warriors and topped them with a 12-0 score in their first conference battle. The boys regretted this loss the rest of the season. The third game, and perhaps the most exciting, was a hard fought contest with our rival, Stockton. In the first few minutes of play, Warren marched to a touch down only to have it called back. Stockton broke loose in the fourth quarter for the only score and won 6-0. Next the squad journeyed to East Dubuque in hopes of a conference win. Neither team was successful in getting an offense working, and the game ended in a 0-0 tie. The Warriors brought down their first conference victory in a thrilling Homecoming game with Galena that ended 12-0. Orangeville was next to fall in a game completely dominated by the orange and black. Two Warren touchdowns were called back, but the Warriors still ended with a 13-0 lead. The last home game was with unbeaten St. Columkille. Despite unfavorable predictions, the boys bravely held the Co-Dukes to a 0-0 tie. Shullsburg, our final game, determined whether the team would finish in third or fifth place. Discouraged fans saw no hope when the red and white led 12-0 at half time. But in the final quarter an injury crippled team surged down the field for two TD's and an extra point. This 13-12 victory was a satisfying end to an ex- citing season. Co-captains were Bill Holland and Denis Toay. Dick Geach was voted Most Valu- able Player and also received the Most Tackles Award. Congratulations, Warriors, on a season well played.

The fast, hard-working, and completely unpredictable varsity basketball team ended the year with a 6-6 conference record and a 9-10 all game record. The team displayed a fine fighting spirit as evidenced by the closeness of the scores. Each member of the team was a good player in his own right. Working together in a team the boys proved to be a tough combination to beat. There were thrills- a-plenty throughout the season for the fans, especially those who watched the Warriors beat East Dubuque--the only team in the conference to manage such a feat. This year wasn't a year of all wins, but it was a year of good basketball, fine spirit, and team cooperation. The boys sported new bright orange warm-up jackets near the middle of the season. This year Warren was host to the County Tournament, January 22-24, held in the new gymnasium. Bill Holland was selected the most valuable player for the Warren Warriors during the '58-'59 season. Selection was made on the basis of outstanding bas- ketball techniques, best team spirit, observance of training rules, field goal percentage, and free throw percentage.

After watch- ing the B-team games, fans have great expec- tations for the varsity team in the next few years. a4e z££ — f ?5% etten ne t KNEELING: Coach Scott.

After catching fire in the early part of the 1958 baseball season, the team went into a brief slump but managed to finish with a fair record. Under Coach Scott the team won four and lost four. Senior lettermen were: Harry Friedli, Russell Logemann, Dean Heller, Jerry Arm- strong, and Jack Smith. Russell was chosen most valuable player by his teammates. Jack Smith was elected captain. This spring the team is optimistic to better last year’s record. The addition of little league baseball in Warren is giving boys practical baseball experience at an earlier age. There are several freshmen and sophomore prospects in addition to six returning lettermen. It sounds like baseball is going to flourish at Warren High this spring. (?6een£etute 4,. . .
