THE 1936 POW-WOW THE 1936 POW WOW DEDICATION For over a generation the Old School Building has echoed and re-echoed to the sound of a group of happy boys and girls. But never-more will happy students trudge up the long flight of stairs to scurry from roam to room. The Old Building will stand like a ghost of some forgotten ageg alive, only with the memory of by-gone days. The dust and cohwehs will gather where we former- lv worked and studied. The cobwebs may gather and the dust may fall and the Old School Building may be razed from this earth, but deep in our hearts there will always be a warm, most reverent feeling for the home of our youth. Because we are the last class to oc- cupy the Old Building, we the class of'56 desire to dedicate this issue of the Pow wow to the Old School Building. .THE 1936 Pow-Wow FOREWORD The graduating class of 1955 renewed a custom of publishing a schoolyesr book.

As in previous years, the Sophomores gave us a very enjoyable initiation. Miss Lough was chosen as our class advisor. In '53, we organized again and chose Miss Hockaday class advisor for the year. We enjoyed very much treating the Freshman class in the same manner that we had been treated the year before. The year '34 was saddened by the death of one of our classmates, Dwight Olson, whom we all liked. This left us with but thirty in our class. Mr. Bennett was chosen general advisorg Miss Lilly, play ad- vlsor, and Miss Walker, as banquet advisor. .Miss Walker helped the class to give the Seniors a splendid banquet, in spite of the fact we were burdened with the depression. We presentfd the Junior play, with a capable cast chosen from a group of thirty juniors. Now tkat we have 53 in our class, we are striving harder than in the future, to make this one of the best classes of W. C. H. S. Class officers and advisors have been selected as follows: Mr. Bennett and Hr. Davis, Advisors, Mr. Gibson, play advisor, president, Waverly Work man, vice-president, Jack Lauderdaleg treasurer, Paul Bennett,Student- Councib, Maxine May: secretary, Wayne Ferguson, and class historian, Louise Kssey. Our class has contriluted singers for the chorusesg musicians , for the orchestra, and valuable basket-ball players for four years . We are happy to know that Windsor will have a new building next year, but who can tell, we may become as well known to the world, by graduating from the 'Old Prison' as those who will leave the new W.C. H. S. building. Louise Kasey, Historian. IN MEMORIAM r N uwmwr OLSON April 12, 1919--August 19, 1954 Wherefore the youth, who with us trod Through schooldays, was a noble type, Departing ere the time was ripe, To work his talent: there for God. For God, who ever lives and loves, One God, one law, one element Toward whom the living Cara- van of God's creation ever moves.

C. H. S., bashful and also very frightened because of what others had told us. We were duly initiated and with the help of our class advisors Mr. Bennett and lr. Bridges, we had our class parties throughout the year. We enjoyed the good fortune of passing semesters, and received a much needed vacation. In September 1934, we returned with the remaining of the old class and five new classmates. We started the year looking much more intel- ligent and with the shade of green considerable lighter. with the help oi-lies Hockaday, we initiated the freshies who occupied our old seats QHEYHQ south side of the assembly. Again we survived the semesters,snd welcomed another vacation. September 1935, twenty-six eager Juniors, gingerly examined a new seating arrangement to see if they were in the front or back of the as- sembly for we are now upper-classmen. How proud and happy we were with being out of the under-classmen rows! We elected class officers as follows: President Ruby Janes. Vice-president Ivan Garrett. Secretary k Treaiuror Phyllis Storm. Historian Rose LaVerne Thompson. Class Advisor , Miss Walker. Our representatives to the Student Council are Richard Gannaway , and Mildred Thompson. Under the adept tutelage of Miss Lough our play advisor, we gave the Junior class play, 'Ch1ntz Cottage.' To Miss Walker we also gave the responsibility of helping us plan the annual Junior Senior Banquet. Rose Laverne Thompson, Historian. 17 THE 1936 POW-WOW vw' THE 1936 POW-WOW ,V U11 my 5.3 ' . e A .

We wer: invited to the initiation as usual, and were instructed to come dressed Ls little kids. When we arrived, we were rushed through an alley of paddles. The party over, the Sophomores served us with delici- ous refreshments. A class party was held at the home of Janet Baker. Our class advisers for the year were Miss Sutter and Mr. Davis. When school ended, we received a well-earned rest. On September 5, 1955, thirty of the thirty-seven who survived the first year began the second year of high school. A class meeting was held at the first of the year and the following officers elected: President Vera Dickerson Vice-president Ronald Ross Secretary R Treasurer Imogene Bivins Historian Paul Morrison Class Adviser Miss Lilly The privilege of initiating the Freshies was denied us this year, but we helped give them an all school party. A successful weiner roast was held at Wyman Park at Sullivan, with the help of our adviser. Through strenuous efforts, it is our sincerest hope to be Juniors next year, one and all.

It fell their lot to do this because they were defe- ated by the Juniors and Seniors in the Basketball ticket sale. Some members of the P. T. A. were there and gave the entiregrowp their Christmas treat. A program followed this, and then came a big event of the afternoon--Santa Claus in person. The Sift exchange was next in order, and how much fun some of those seniors, along with the freshmen, had with little automobiles and jumping-jacks. Refreshments consisting of candy and peanuts, were served and the whole gym was in a mess of peanut hulls and wrapping paper. KID PARTY To celebrate Wlndsor's future new high school a kid party wasgl- ven in W.C.H.S. gym. My how cute the faculty looked in their short- socks, hair ribbons, and sashes. Kid games were played, like London- Bridge and Kitty and Mousie. Refreshments consisted of lollypops and bubble gum. ALL SCHOU1 PARTY This year instead of frightening the poor little freshies within- an-inch of their lives it was decided that the initiation would ber!- placed by an all school party for them. Most of the Freshmen were present and also a good attendance from the upper classes. A program was presented and games were played. There were special games for a group of honored guests. An abundant supply of refreshments was fur- nished by the upper clessmen, consisting of sandwiches and pop. FRESHMAN WEINER ROAST On Tuesday, September 24, at five o'clock the Freshmen assembled, in front of W.C.H.S. and were taken to Dick Lugar's home in cars pro- vided by their parents and members of the class. On arrival welners and marshmallows were toasted. Games were then played until a late hour. Everyone went home with memories of a pleasant evening.

THE 1936 POW-WOW Junior-Senior Banquet One of the outstanding events of the school year in Windsor Com- munity High School in the year of 1935 was the annual banquet ten ered the Seniors by the Juniors. The Banquet was held Wednesday nightin the social rooms of the Methodist church. The hosts and guests were seated at 17 small tables in the large social room of the church. A group from the Ladies Aid of the church prepared the food, which was served by 10 girls of the class of '37. The Juniors arranged the tables, attended to the decorations, and made out the menu. The room was demmated as a garden, a large rainbow in proper col- ors gracing the south end, and approachable through gates. In the center of the room was a clever representation of a well--the Wishing Well--with the well sweep and the old oaken bucket: also in the center of each table was a small representation of a well. Flowers and streamers were used in abundance. The menu included fruit cocktail, celery, olives, radishes, chicken pie, mashed poh wes, creamed peas, pineapple salad with jello, cottage cheese, rolls, brick ice cream, angel food cake, coffee, 1ced tea, mints in yellow and white, which were the Senior colors. Ruby Miner, President of the Juniors, as toastmaster, gave the address of welcome, The Wishing Well. Other numbers of an enjoyable program were: Response, Forget-me-not, by Ruth Elder, '35, clarenet solo, Crimson Blushes, Dean A. Fling, '36, Talk, In the Garden of To- morrow, by Supt. J. H. Dunscombg violin duet, Wild Irish Rose, by Maxine May and Helen Louise Juhnke,'36gRead1ng, The Floral Love Story, Wm.

Dean Fling then presented a gift to each Senior, titling his re- marks, Orchids for the Seniors. The Rirll quartet sang. After the program the Juniors escorted their guests to the Wind- sor Theatre to a theatre party, witnessing 'One More Spr1ng.' -f THE 1936 POW-WOW GIRL'S ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION The object of the Girls' Athletic Association is to stimulate interest in girls' athletics and gymnastics and to standardize and pro- ldeals of health and sportmanship.

All the members were given a physical examination to de- termine wbether they were able to take part in athletics. Twice a year members are selected from each school in a certain area to attend Play Day. The fall one was held at Bethany, and the plans are being made for a spring play day at Beecher City, Yay 9. The purpose of these meetings is to enable one to become acquainted w 1 t h girls of other towns who are also interested in athletics 'ni to have a good time playing with girls of other schools rather than competing against them. To be a full fledged member one takes and atides bv the following pledge: UI promise to uphold the ideals of the Girls' Athlotic Asso- ciation, by promoting interest in Athletics and out-of-doors: By liv- ing so that 1 may be healthy and strong and by making sportmanship a constant factor in my conduct. 30 THE 1936 POW-WOW Nm J - f 1-Zia ' ff WH' 4, 5 QQ 'x , ? ref 2 nA ' at 'Z ff, .

The team played 22 games of which they won 14 and lost 8. We think that congratulation is due them for their fine work in upholding the record of the Blue and Gold and for their coach who has taken such a great interest in the boys. In order that you may become better acqua- inted with the coach and members of the squad, we shall mention each one separately. 4 J. H. Dunscomb 'Jobey' as he is known throughout basket ball circles has produced bsllteams shicl come through winning most of the time. He not only coaches but teaches and is superintendent of the grade and high school. He is to be congratulated on his fine work. Dean bling a speedy forward has played all four years of 11s high school days. He has played well and has helped bring his team many victories. Dean will not be back next year. Rankin Tull like Dean has also played all four years. He either plays center or forward and does an excellent job of it. He wLll re- ceive his fourth letter this year. He will be greatly missed next ye- ar. Stephen Elliott or known to the students as 'Punk' is a forward. Stephen is the last of the Elliott family to play basketball on teams in Windsor. He is speedy and has a good eye for the basket. He will be back next year and great things are expected of him as he is only a Junior. Jean Garrett is a guard who does his best. His guarding has been good tlroughout the season. He will be missed next year. Don Moberly, a Senior came from Gays to Windsor to finish school. Making a record for hi self at Gays he has also continued his record at windsor. He is an excellent guard and if given a chance can r ally make baskets. His position will be hard to fill next year. , 5 ' X5 M- ---,.,,-.flL.-- .,..,. l,,-,l?. 3 THE 1936 Pow-Wow I 55. lf BASKET-BALL 1955-1366 Paul tennett has been on the squad for two years. He has played his Junior and Senior year and has made an excellent showing. He too will be missed next year on the team. William Hoelscher is a forward who usually puts more pep in his playing than any one on the team. he is fast and has a gooo eye for the basket. Harold Booze, also from Gays has proven his ability to play ball. He is a Senior and will not be back next year. Waverly Workman, a guard has played his first year of basketball. He does well and it is too bad he did not start earlier bacause he has shown promising results as a ball player. John '.', ill Johnson plays guard on the team. he has displayed good plays and great things are expected of Lim bacause he is only a Junior this year. ' Three new players who helped build up the team are Charles Work- man, J. S. Garvin and Glenn Noffke. Though these boys did not play much this year they have shown their ability to play ball. THE SECOND TTAA The Second team th1s year has shown excellent ball playing. Hhey played U gh.es and won 7 of them losing only one which is a mighty fine record. This concludes the record of our teams. They have been very suc- cessful. With Windsor getting a new gym we sincerely wish the future teams of W. C. H. S. succcs: and may they always carry the Blue and Gold banner to victory. THF W. C. H. S. CHEERLEADERS One of the big reasons for the success of the team was the fact that we had two good cheer leaders. They were Eugene Swain and Haxine Shook, Many a time when we were behind in a game our cheer leaders 55 X THE 1936 POW-WOW would give a good peppy yell to encourage the boys and they would turn up with another victory for W. C. H. S. luch credit is due to the cheer leaders and they are deserving of all the praise and favorable comment which they have received. ACCOUNT OF GAMES HOWEAQUA 25--WINDSOR 24 The first basket ball game of the season was with Moweaqua.It was a hard-fought game, with plenty of thrills, but with loweaqua coming out on top. Tull and Fling were high point men. GAYS 14--WINDSOR 18 When Gays came to Windsor to play they were determined to beat us but once again the Gold and Blue brought us victory. It was at this game we tried to have a 1001 of the Student body present. We were successful in having all but six there. WINDSJR 37--SULLIVAN 12 We went to Sullivan determined to show them how to play ball and came back to the tune of 57-12 in favor of Windsor. The boys played a fine game, with Fling topping off honors in the scoring by securing 15 points io his credit. TOWERHILL 21--WINDSOR 23 This game was played on Friday Dec.l3,so it looked as if we might have bad luck, that is if you are superstitious. Towerhill keptwlnd- sor stepping. It was an overtime, but in the end Windsor managed to gain a two point lead. MOULTRIE COUNTY TOURNAMENT As usual we were invited to the loultrie County Tournament, held at Sullivan Dec. 18-20. we drew Sullvvan as our first opponent. After beating them the week before so badly we were almost sure we could do THE 1936 POW-WOW --H it agaln. Qad but true Sullivan turned the tables on us and they won after a hard fought battle to the score of 18-16. Thus we were elimin- ated fron the Tournanent the first night. ALUMNI 54--TINDSOH 27 The boys came back to the alma-mater to show us up, but our tean showed them a good game even if they were defeated. LERNA Z4--WINDSOR 66 The boys again showed their ability to run up a big score. It was an easy victory for them. WINDSOR 52- -'FULICDO 22 Despite the cold weather ani the cold gym our boys were able to gain the victory. It was reported that our coach wore his overcoat while tnc game was going on so you see it must have been cold. I think our boys ate chile that night at Toledo. WINDSoR 57--STEWARDSUN 15 The local cage team again brought home another victory to add to our record, by beating Stewardson 57-13, Fling held scoring nonors for the locals collecting 19 points with Tull runner up witl ll points. Never at any time was Windsor in im ediate danger of losing theirsmall but ample lead. WINDSUR 25--SAYS 52 After almost losing to Gays on the Tome floor we actually did get beat on their floor. Gays sure showed us how to play ball and the Gold and Blue could not overcome then. The boys put up a good fight but the Gays lads out played them in every spet. SHELeY CObNTY TOkRNAMENT After being eliminated from the Moultrie County Tournament our boys determined to win the Shelby County Tournament. It was held at Shelbyville January 26-2b. An aspiring and alert Windsor five were obliged to meet with Towerhill the first encounter of the Tournament. we were successful in beating them, the score being 28-19. After this we were forced to meet Shelbyville. In a way we were tickled to have 57 -' THE 1936 POW-WOW to do this but yet me were fearful that they might beat us. ltha large following of Windsor fans backing the team xe really showed thoselhdby lads how to play basket-ball ln a big way. We won by a large score, it being 40-26 thus putting us in the championship game. ':'. ith still a larger following of Windsor fans we met Moweaqua,the1rtbed of conten-- tion in the county, never having lost a game until their encounterwith the Windsor lads in the Tournament. It was a hotly contested affair with Windsor the v1ctor.The score was 24-20 thus declaring Windsor the Chumpion of the Shelby County Tournament. The trophy was presented to Captain Fling by Mr. York Superintendent of Schools of Shelbyville,lll FINDLAY 50--WINDSOR dl Findlay came to Windsor and certainly showed us a good game. T6 were kept pretty busy trying to hold the lead but everytime we needed a basket Jean Garrett furnished it. To him goes the honor of securing the most points, eleven in number. I might add that this gene was an overtime. WINDSOR 25--AOWEAQUA 26 Having lost to us in the tournament, Moweaqua defeated our tea.m by a score of 26-25. WINDSOR 18--TUWERHILL 29 It was tue grand opening of Towerhill's new gym and 'indsor was honored by being the first team to play in it. They were accoupanied by a large group of fans but were compelled to return home because of light trouble in the new gym. They went back for the game on a later date but were defeated. WINDSOR 66--LERNA 22 Another victory! The Windsor five came through with an easyvic- tory over herna. Fling captured the honor by breaking all DPGVi0us re- cords of scoring--36 points. STEWAHDSON 25--'INUSOR .'.' 28 This game was very close and rough. The Blue and Gold stillnmrried our banner and we won by a close score. THE 1936 POW-WOW S-N LULLIVAN 26--nINDSoh 24 This game was another close contest. Hindsor played good ball but the Sullivan lads were able to overcome them and they won by a close score. TUE REGIONAL TUUMNAMENT Though they had the District Tournament,Rindsor was not obligedto play in it. We were rated as one of the eight best in our district. We were to play in the xegional Tournament at Effingham which was thedis- trict to wkich we were assigned. our first team to meet was Farina. Dean Fling, our speedy forward, was not able to play because of his being in Chicago taking 'est ,'Q' Point examinations. We were a total loss without him and met with defeat by the score of 19-z6.A large group of fans accomlanied tie team to Effingham. TOLEDO 24--WINDSOR 54 This game had to be postponed twice, first by the epidemic onwar- let fever and the second time Dy the cold weather. It proved to be an easy victory for the elue and Gold WINDSOR 29--FINDLAY 27 This game 'as .',' postponed because of the District Tournament and wa played at R later date.

Class of 1956 Witnesses: The Half Witte Midnight Oil 42 CLAJ5 PQQPHELY A few years after I left school, I somehow becane a reporter for a newspaper in a town in Central Illinois. I held the job about two years until the owner died. It was either find another job or help build up the old one. I formed a partnership with Archie Leggitt and together we bought the establishment. As an attempt to increase the circulation of the paper in various sectionsof the country, we pl- aced the following notice in the paper: A subscription will be given to each member of the class of '35-56 of N. C. H. S. Just send us your address and a story of your success in life and we 1-.' ill start your subscription immediately. For your benefit we here list the various occupations that our old friends have taken up. The first letter we received was from Paul Bennett and his wife Pauline. Paul is the principal and math teacher ani Pauline is the history teacher at tue Windsor High School. Harold Smith is a successful farmer. He owns and operates, with the help of Dean Kearney, about SOO acres of good land. H18 letter stated that Dean was a good hand at driving the horses but he hated to let him borrow the car on Sunday nights because he was such a nervous driver. He was planning on firing him because Dean's uncle had offered him a good position and he was goin, to quit anyway. Harold has been engaged to Louise Kasey for three years but they can't decide whether- they want to get married or not. Jack Lauderdale has been reelected to the Illinois legislature this year. Geo ge Glasscock is an electricion for a moving picture company. His job gives high wages but he says it is extremely dangerous. Once an accident proved almost fatal. H6 was backstage adjusting the lights for an extremely difficult shot and an actress called for Aer tights and he thought she said lights. 45 THE 1936 Pow-Wow I ,ai THE 1936 POW-WOW The moving picture actresses, Ruby Faye, and Vera May, are the same Ruby Miner and Maxine May that we used to know so well. we knew that William Hoelscher is a comedian-ventriloquist because he has a regular feature each evening, and we listen to his radio programs but neither of us knew that the popular mountain ballad singer, Jane Ellen, was the same Ellen Bragg we used to know. Rex Veech now resides in Gays where he owns H fifteen 3COFyG0t6ln He gives good service and has a surprisingly large business for so small a city. He has a good clerk because Robert Feree stands behind the desk. Jean Garrett, the elevator boy, says the place has its ups and downs but I think he referred to his job and not to the service. Maxine Shook has built up an enterprising business for her beauty shop with the help of Olive Shadow who is an accomplished palm reader and fortune teller. She tells the women who come to see her that a dark, beautiful woman is coming into her life and will win her man away, unless she is made more beautiful, at Maxlne's parlor. Dean Fling and Lyle Munson are attorneys at law. They have handled cases of varying seriousness ranging from the one between the stage actress and a butcher to the serious murder case last summer. Any ball fan could instantly identify Don Voberly as the star pitcher of the Red Gloves base-ball team. He is an excellent player of the league comparing favorably with Babe Ruth, the Deans and other famous plavers of the past. Rankin Tull is the manager of the Kwick-Kleen Soap Company in De- catur. The factory has a large business and Rankin Draws a large sal- ary. As Rankin and Eileen Robertson are married he had to have a sec- retary his wife could trust so he sent down to Windsor and hired Elea- nor Richardson for the job, and she has proved satisfactory ' because- she always said that she intended to remain single. THE 1936 POW-WOW wa The Windsor Pet Shop is one of only a few such store s in the state. In it you can purchase any pet you care to ranging from a gold fish to a St. Bernard. The shop is operated on a partnership basis by Lois Walden and Waverly Workman. Hwaven is the silent partner and just furnishes the cash and lets Lois run the shop. Maxine keeps him busy at home so he doesn't bother around the shop. Which is just as well because if he was there, Harold Booze, the crusty old bachelor from down the block would not drop in occasionally. He pretends to come to look at the fish but he is going to remain a poor fish until he gives up his chewing tobacco and his foreign accent because Lois cares for neither. Wayne Ferguson is still trying to find and own the fastest thing that ever turned a wheel. Last year he had a car that wouli go about- five hundred miles an hour but he never knew just how fast it would go because after the needle went around the eighth time he lost count and wasn't sure whether the next round would be five or six hundred. He has to have long springs in his speedometers to keep the needle from breaking it by so much twisting. He says that sometimes it takes the needle two minutes to spin back to O when he stops. Edwin Wall pilots a transport plane regularly between a South- American city and New York. In seven years of flying and more than a million miles traveled, he has never had the slightest mishap, and we hope he can go another seven with the same record. who but Alice George could write such thrilling mystery novels? If anyone ever wrote a mystery that you couldn't solve without finish- ing the story she is the one who can do it. However she has one she can't publish because she hasn't yet found any solution for all the problems presented in it. Her fame will probably be made when it is published. THE 1936 POW-WOW We all knew that Helen Louise was a good talker and entertainer but never realized that those properties could be made into a paying asset. By her charming personality she holds down a position as stew ardess on the same air transport line that Edwin works for. The hardest member of the class to locate was Henrietti Frandsen. After several months a letter postmarked in Greece informed us that she is an explorer ani scientist of the ruins of ancient cities. She has helped, by her research work, to locate a whole town that had neva' been explored. Glen Lenz is the owner of a hardware store in Hindsor. While business is slack he helps solve the pro lems of folks who are having trouble. He likes for people to think he is only a fat, lazy hardware merchant but he is really the best informed man in the town.. He can take a few facts, add to them from his generous Knowledge and have the answer to any problem that can come up. We shall not fail Though skies be dark, And the buffeting World May leave its mark We shall not fail, Though some may say We cannot win, We'll have our day. We--the leaders of tomorrow. M. E. G.
