Age will tell you that the memory is the treasure house of man. Gold and fleeting fame may vanish, but life’s riches never can; For the little home of laughter and the voice of every friend And the joys of real contentment linger with us to the end. —Edgar A.

The first cruise on the good ship “Freshman,” passed in a seemingly short time, under the wise and guiding hand of Captain Rita Walker. She navigated thirty-five of the forty persons who started the cruise through the trying experiences met in our first encounter with the hardships of high school. On September 1, 1938 all the Marines of the first voyage were back including Harold Bulleiman from Strasburg. In charge of us was an old salt of the south seas named Captain Bennett. Kighteen weeks from shore we received a wireless telling that Waunita Pifer ami Imogene Manion were to be transferred from our sturdy ship to Warship “Decatur” and Cruiser “Strasburg” respectively. About the same time two crew members were washed overboard in a hurricane and our crew now numbered thirty-two. We were blown from our course in the hurricane and were shipwrecked on a reef in the uncharted South Seas. Only through the cooperation of the crew members under Captain Bennett were wo able to repair ship and reach our home port where we were given up as lost. Unon reaching home we immediately received an order from the officer in charge, J. H. Dunscomb, that because of our heroic efforts and our able seamanship we were to be transferred to the land training school which would conduct us through two nine months courses in studying and traveling about our United States. The Travel Bureau Headquarters where we met in the fall of 1939 before leaving on our first excursion of our country was W. C. H. S. The Supervisor of this travel bureau was no other than J. H. Dunscomb. He had under him nine capable directors, four of whom were to accompany us on this particular trip. We left home in high spirits, but our excursion soon proved to provide plenty of hard study besides the work and activities we took part in on our way. Our advisor again this term was Mr. Bennett who acted as business manager and guide. The first leg of our journey took us to Chicago. Miss Hammer conducted her group on a food and home-making tour of the city while Miss Ridgley took her class of Solid Geometry—Advanced Algebra to Adler Planetarium. Later, in New York Mr. Dunscomb and Mr. Davis took their commercial classes through The Board of Trade and a large clearing house, then to Macy’s Department store where problems of business and supply and demand were discussed with the president and associates of these large concerns. This completed our first part of the major tour. The second and last half of our continental tour was resumed three months later under the tour managership of Mr. Curry. We chartered a bus and headed for Hannibal, Mo., the home of Mark Twain, famed American author, where a specialized course in English IV was taken under the supervision of Miss Ridgley. From here we journeyed down the river to New Orleans stopping long enough for Miss Midgett and her French Class to tour the “Old French Quarter.” From New Orleans we went across country to Williamsburg, Va. Here Mr Curry pointed out to us this old historical town, especially the Colonial Capital of Va. From here we passed many historical sites as onward we sped to Washington D. C. where we viewed with great interest our Capital and its various functions. The Bureau of Standards was visited and was explained to us by Mr. Davis. Miss Allen and her typing class were visitors at the Underwood Typewriter Company in New York. While these students were in New York. Mr. Johnson and members of the band attended a concert presented by the United States Army Band. Our tour to points of interest completed, we started for home with minds set for hard study, in order that we might pass the final exams to see if we were competent enough for self conducted tours in this world of business, industry and other professions. Here we are, our journey almost completed, although glad, it is saddening when thoughts of parting from our teachers and friends, come to our minds. —By Elmer Wallace, Historian.

The characters in this were: Mother Turner—who wants to go on a honeymoon ........... Madonna Storm Dad Turner—who must go along ........................ Raymond Rentfrow Honor—their daughter ................................. Alice Hortenstine Mac—their son ........................................... David Munson Katherine Berry—the girl from the city .......... Frances Mave Douthit Herb Kempton—the boy next door........................... LeRoy Walker “A Ghostly Evening” was presented as the other play. This was an eerie comedy in one act in which ghosts made their entrances and exits into the play at such times that even the ghosts got scared. There was a mysterious air to the play and the two negro characters kept the dialogue funny. The characters were: Mrs. Thomas Marrow (Stella)—a devoted mother ............ Betty Hennigh Theodora Marrow—her charming daughter ...................... Edna Myers Azaleen—the Marrows colored maid ...................... Marjorie Slater Florian De Sylvester—her new boy friend ................ Harvey Walker Joan Simms—a close friend of Theodora's .................... Betty Slifer Rush Simms—her brother ................................. Elmer Wallace Mrs. Anastasia Penfold—a society matron ................... Louise Rose Kenyon Penfold—her son, who loves to boast of his bravery .... Harold Leeds Between the plays the German Band played a few numbers. This group is composed of four seniors: Harold Leeds, cornet; Harvey Waker, cornet; Leroy Walker, baritone: Laurance Soland, bass. Also between plays, Jacque Morford tap-danced and a gift was presented to the director, Miss Ridgley, by the Senior class. Closing Days The students are looking forward, some with gladness and others with sorrow, to tne closing days of this year. The last week of school promises to be a busy one. The Seniors get out a week early so they have their semester exams May 21. The Baccalaureate is to be the 25th, followed by the graduation exercises the 28th. The other students have their semester exams the 27th, and 28th. May 29 is the big event of the year because it is the last. That day the students bid farewell to W. C. H. S. until next September, and the Seniors, good by forever, as far as lessons are concerned. ★ ff ff f WCHS 1941 f f f f f ★ —13— ★ f f f f f POW WOW f f f f f EDNA MARIE MYERS, “Cissy” Pow-Wow Staff 4, Band 1-2-3-4, Orchestra 1-2, Home Ec. 3-4, G.

C. H. S. for four years of training aboard the education “clippers.” The first one we encountered was the clipper Freshman. We took off with Miss Ridgley in charge, Gene Glasscock as pilot, Isaac Walden co-pilot, Irene Ashbrook recorder, Howard Hamilton finances, and Mary Maxine Bence ir charge of past and present happnings. About a week after we started the other clippers joined us and gave us a party, in which we all had to tell a mother-goose rhyme or imitate some comic character. Also we had two parties and a wiener roast. One of the parties was a kid party in which we all dressed like “little kids.” As we were not used to the ways of the clippers there were several bumps and rough spots which bothered us, but we soon overcame them and wound up a success. Again the next year the same group, minus a few, came back for the second lap of the journey. This time we traveled aboard the “sophomore.” Mr. Turner was in charge with Jr. Etheridge as pilot, Emma J. Elliott, co-pilot, Pauline Edwards, in charge of reports and finances, and Lois Bartley in charge of past and present happenings. The subjects we encountered this time such as English and Geometry seemed like mountains in accordance with the first year, but with considerable effort we managed to conquer them. We were very happy and proud to have a delegate of our class, Mary Maxine Bence, elected school queen of 1940. We were also proud of our representation of the band, which included 19 members. On September 1941, we returned to complete the third lap of the four, aboard the clipper “Junior.” “Wild Bill” Bennett was overseer with Lois Bartley pilot, Irene Ashbrook co-pilot, and Gene Glasscock in charge of reports and finances. This year several students from our class entered the district solo and ensemble contest held at Matttoon. We were very sorry to lose one of our classmates and vice president, Irene Ashbrook, this spring. She moved to Stewardson. Now, the third lap of the journey almost completed, we are looking forward to to next year and to what it will bring us. —Eileen Kercheval, Historian EVERYBODY’S GETTING MARRIED Reginald D’Arcy, a quiet young man, has just received a notice that his wealthy aunt Agatha D’Arcy has just passed away leaving to him one million dollars if he full-fills the terms of her will. The will states that he must find husbands within 30 days for her six women who were the members of her matrimonial agency and remained unmarried during this time. Very much in despair he calls in his friend Dean Garrett a business genius, to help him find husbands for the women. Meanwhile his fiancee, Viola Compton, says that if he carries the plan out she will never marry him. After searching every poolhall in town he succeeds in finding three men who are willing to get married. And by much talking he persuades James, Reginold's valet, to marry another of the women. This leaves two more to go so he tricks Mr. Gordon, a Philadelphia lawyer, who is looking after the estate, into marrying one of the women and finally in the end marrying one of them himself. This satisfies all of the conditions ★ f f f f f WCHS 1941 ff ff W f W ★ —17— ★ f f f f f POW WOW If Iff If Iff Iff + of the will and meanwhile Viola changes her mind and again promises to marry Reg-inold.

C. H. S. to start on an expedition of education. We were all eager to start and passed all the obstacles that came our way, which of course were daily tests and exams. Then we were ready to start on another expedition the following year. Our captain was Miss Midgett. Our next expedition began again in September, 1940, with thirty-eight members. The two members we gained were MildreO Moran and Laura Hampton. During the first semester we lost a member, Robert Gaston. We passed the first semester exams successfully and were ready for the second. During the second semester we lost Helen Green and Duncan Ruble but gained Jim Thompson. On May 23, the Biology class is to go to St. Louis to visit the zoo. Here we will see many interesting things. Our class advisor is Miss Allen and our officers are: President, Mary Annetta Neal; Vice President, Lcland Davis: Secretary, Treasurer, Floyd Hardwick; Historian, Elaine Bullerman. BIOLOGY TRIP TO ST. LOUIS Each year the Biology class and Mr. Bennett go on a trip to St. Louis. In St. Louis they visit Shaw’s Botanical Gardens and Forest Park zoo. Of course, to finish the day up right, they spend an hour or so at Forest Park Highlands. Besides being a lot of fun, the trip is always very interesting and educational. This year’s class, with 39 members, was the largest yet to have gone on the trip. They went on Friday, May 23, in the Stevvardson school bus. FRESHMAN CLASS HISTORY Early in September a group of 25 boys and 21 girls, their knees knocking, came to W. C. H. S. to start on their first year in that building. But the upper classmen gave us a hearty welcome by means of an initiation party and were very helpful to us beginners. We would like to thank them for making our start easier. Fifteen of our group came from W. G. S. and 31 from the country near Windsor. Not long after school started, two of our class quit (Harold and Gerald Harden), and later Helen Jeffers moved to Shelbyville. We miss her very much. Also during the year we had three new members join our class. They were: Raymond Warner, from south of Gays; Sibel Reed, from Sullivan: and Dwain Hawkins, from Oconee. We are glad to have them in our class and we hope they like our school. We were acquainted in a week or two and by the third week we had settled down to hard study. We trembled a little at our first six weeks’ test but our real scare came with our first semester’s. They weren’t as bad as we had expected and we were soon able to breathe freely again. On March 21, 1941, the Freshman Class had their first class party of the year. Some of them brought guests. Delicious refreshments were served and every one had a “swell” time. Mr. Arthur Johnson was our class advisor and we want to thank him for his help and advice. Our class officers for the year were: President, Jacque Morford; Vice President, Bill Spencer; Secretary and Treasurer, Mary Hennigh; Historian, Dorothy Calvin. —Dorothy Calvin, Historian. ★ ff fff WCHS 1941 9f f W ★ —21— ★ ? f f f f POW WOW f f f f f ★ SOPHOMORES Front Row—Robert Storm, Mildred Wade, Jean Waggeman, Betty Osterday, Lois Weakley, Miss Allen (Advisor). 2nd Row—Mary Annetta Neal, Zelma Shadows, Laura Jean Hampton, Mary Arganbright, Elaine Bullerman, Edith Edwards, Norma Jean Banks. 3rd Row—Dwight Arganbright, Gene Wallace, Jim Carter, Robert Clapper, Leland Davis, Kenneth Roellig. 4th Row—Norma Jean Garrett, Gloria Faye Walker, Dorothy Noffke, Nadine Steele, Gloria Anderson, Mildred Moran. 5th Row—Stanley Butcher, Alfred Mayer, Thomas Arganbright, Don Horn, Duncan Ruble, Warren Specht. 6th Row—Junior Robinson, Albert Bell, Dale Tull, Jim Thompson, Donald Noffke, Floyd Hardwick, Tommy Curry.

NOVEMBER 22, WINDSOR AT STRASBURG Our first game out of town and a brand new gym to play it in. Windsor 68— Strasburg 20. I guess the newness didn't bother the team a bit. Hamilton was high man again, this time with 27 points. Incidentally this was the most points by any one individual in a single game this season. DECEMBER 3, SULLIVAN AT WINDSOR indsor 35—Sullivan 28. This was our toughest game vet and not until the lourth quarter did Windsor pull ahead. Hamilton again, with 12 points, led the scoring for Windsor. DECEMBER 10, WINDSOR AT SHELBYVILLE Shelbyville 43—Windsor 25. The team played well considering the fact that Tuggle and Gabby weren’t able to play. Hamilton had 9 points and Baker 8 for scoring honors for Windsor. DECEMBER 13. ASSUMPTION AT WINDSOR Windsor 33—Assumption 23. Donald Noffice, one of the second team men, got hot and made 4 out of 6 shots, good for 8 points. DECEMBER 27. WINDSOR AT NOKOMIS This game during Christmas vacation proved one of the most interesting of the year. Nokomis was undefeated to this contest and rumors were afloat that they had a great team. The game was close throughout and with only seconds to play Carter sank a long shot to tie and Baker dropped through a free toss to win. Windsor 27_ Nokomis 26. JANUARY 3. STEWARDSON AT WINDSOR indsor 43—Stewardson 13. Tuggle alone scored more than the entire Steward-son team, with 15 points. JANUARY 7, SHELBYVILLE AT WINDSOR This time we met Shelbyville on our home floor with the regular lineup and the difference is seen in the results of this game. Tuggle played one of the season’s best games as did the whole team and Wallace had 20 points. Tug fouled out in the last quarter but the team held their lead to win 37-36. JANUARY 10. STRASBURG AT WINDSOR .You wouldn’t think Strasburg was the same team we beat 6 weeks before, nor would you think Windsor was the same team that beat Shelbyville 3 nights before. The game was too close for comfort until well into the third quarter when Windsor perked up and won 37-25.

JANUARY 28, WINDSOR AT FINDLAY TOURNAMENT FOLLOWING THE SIIELHY COUNTY Findlay s Mauzey couldn’t miss a long shot but maybe they were getting the breaks we got when we beat them in the Shelby Tourney. Findlay 37—Windsor 28. Bell led Windsor’s scoring with 10 points. JANUARY 29, WINDSOR AT GAYS Windsor 65—Gays 26. The boys had a good time in this game because it was a “homecoming” for our two Gays boys, George Hall and Norman McKenzie. They played a portion of the game and coincidentally George guarded his younger brother of the Gays team. Tuggle led the scoring with 15 points. FEBRUARY 4, NOKOMIS AT WINDSOR Nokomis 41—Windsor 32. Nokomis showed us their good team in this game as they overcame a halftime lead to beat Windsor soundly. Wallace had 11 points for high man. FEBRUARY 7. WINDSOR AT COWDEN Windsor 46—Cowden 33. Bell played another of his good games of which he played several during this part of the season. He made 17 points to capture scoring honors. FEBRUARY 11. WINDSOR AT STEWARDSON This was our second encounter with Stewardson and what an improvement they showed. Not until the third quarter did Windsor take a lead for another Windsor victory. Windsor 37—Stewardson 29. FEBRUARY 14. TEUTOPOLIS AT WINDSOR Teutopolis 38—Windsor 22. Here we met the team whom we had beaten by one point in Regional Tournament last year. They had an experienced and large team and especially one hot lad who couldn’t be stopped. None of our boys got more than one basket in this game and Bell was again high point man with a basket and 4 free-throws for 6 points. FEBRUARY 18, COWDEN AT WINDSOR Windsor 40—Cowden 32. Tuggle and Ham worked fine in this game. Tug got 17 points and Hamilton 12. FEBRUARY 21, WINDSOR AT NEOGA Windsor 33—Neoga 25. Tuggle was playing in his old stride in what proved to be a tune up for the Regional Tournament. Tug got 11 points for scoring honors. FEBRUARY 28. WINDSOR AT SULLIVAN Windsor 32—Sullivan 24. In this, the last game on the regular schedule, the boys were at their best form. Grabbing a 1st quarter lead of 10-1 the Blue Devils held a substantial lead throughout to win their 3rd victory over Sullivan this season.

We drew Hammond the first game in the afternoon and won handily by a score of -14 to 11. This game proved to be a costly one because Wallace sprained his ankle early in the second quarter and was forced to leave the game and couldn’t appear in the rest of the Tourney. Hamilton was high scorer with 11) points. That night after the boys had eaten a “light” supper, they played Humboldt for the Championship. Again the game cost us for late in the third quarter Jim Carter injured his ankle, but the boys won the game without too much difficulty. Hamilton was high point man in the contest with 12 points. For the 3rd successive year we won the Arthur Invitational Tourney with a defeat of Humboldt. Windsor 28—Humboldt 18. DECEMBER 18, 19. 20. MOULTRIE COUNTY TOURNAMENT In the Moultrie County Tournament held at Arthur we drew Lovington for our first game. The score was Windsor 42—Lovington 31, with Tuggle scoring 18 points and Hamilton racking up 14 points. This Victory gave us a half interest in the Championship game with Sullivan as our opposition. We defeated Sullivan 27 to 25. Hamilton scored 11 points but it was Carter who was the hero. With only a few seconds to play the score was 25-25 when Carter shot and made one of his famous long shots to give us a 2-point victory. JANUARY 22, 23, 24, 25, SHELBY COUNTY TOURNAMENT In this Tournament we were again defending champs. We won our first game by a score of Windsor 21- Findlay 20. Tuggle was high point man with 7 points. Findlay gave many people heart failure in the closing seconds as they missed several shots during the latter stages of the game. Our second encounter was with Tower Hill. Again fate was with us and again we won by one point, 34-33. Tuggle plaved one of his toughest games this night, getting only 1 free throw, but “Pooch-eve” Carter made up for Tug’s poor showing by scoring 16 points. This is the only game Wallace played all season in which he didn’t score a field basket. Saturday night came the Championship engagement with Shelbyville. Our boys were definitely out of stride and out classed in this game which Shelbyville won 43-17. At the outset of the Tourney Shelbyville and Windsor each had won 6 times, so now Shelbyville is one up on Windsor in number of Shelby County Tournaments won. MARCH 4. 5. 6, 7. REGIONAL TOl'RN MENT AT EFFINGHAM We entered this tournament again as defending champions and drew Neoga for our first game. The question was, “We boat them once, can we do it again?” We got the answer on Wednesday night when Windsor defeated Neoga 40-37. Our team was reaching the top ' f ts se son at this Tourney as was indicated by their swell playing against Neoga. Hamilton hit 7 baskets and 5 free throws for scoring honors. Thursday night we drew Effingham, who had defeated Teutopolis the previous night. Windsor played another great game by defeating a highly rated Effingham team 30-29. With 2 minutes to play we held a one point lerd but Effingham failed to score another point. In the final game with Greenup, a small fast team, we had another great performance by the Blue Devils. Windsor won 25-22. Tuggle was high point man with 12 points. MARCH 11, 12, 13, 14, SECTIONAL TOURNAMENT AT EFFINGHAM The Sectional Tourney was also held at Effingham. Much worry was erased the first night when we beat Coffeen 37-25. They showed a good team but Windsor showed better with Hamilton and Wallace getting 13 and 11 points respectively. Thursday night we had Mattoon as our opposition and our hoys played a good game but they just didn’t have what it took to defeat Mattoon’s snappy passing bunch of hot shots. We were defeated 44-31 and again Hamilton and Wallace were Windsor’s best scorers with 18 and 10 points respectively. And so the curtain was rung down on actual competition for Windsor 1940-41 basketball team and for seven members of the Tournament squad it meant their last High School basketball. OUR TEAM There were 21 boys who went out for basket ball this year. From these 21 boys Coach Curry singled out of, 1st five consisting of Wallace, Baker, Rentfrow (seniors), ★ f f f WCHS 1941 W W W W W ★ —31— ★ f f f � f POW WOW If Iff ★ Hamilton (junior), and ( arter (sophomore4). Boll was sixth man. Our second team, Mun-son, Noffke, Swinford, Hall and McKenzie won 13 panics and lost five. Second team substitutes were Rose, Horn, Griffin, Walden, Soland, Fugate, and Albert Boll. COACH CURRY Another successful basketball season has been gained through the efforts of our Coach Russell Curry. He has produced a team which has pone far this year and only his team of last year has pone farther. We are extendinp our conpratulations and a hearty thanks to you, Coach Curry, for a successful basketball season. ELMGR “TUGGLE” WALLACE Tupple was a pood defensive man; he had a driving spirit hard to match and could always be depended upon for rebounds. An exceptionally pood dribbler, Tupple was the fourth Windsor basketball player to win 4 letters. He was known throuphout the state as one of the outstanding players of Illinois. He received honorable mention on Pat Harmon’s all-state basket ball team. He has been Windsor’s hiph point man for 3 consecutive years. All his shots were one handed and practically impossible to puard. “HAM” HOWARD HAMILTON Ham was one of our forwards this year. His faking ability was one of his outstanding points and because of this he was fouled many times. He was also very clever at the pivot post. He was a pood shot at close ups. He played his best ball in the Regional and Sectional tournaments. We are looking forward to great things from him next year. “POOCH-EYE” JIMMY CARTER Although Pooch-Eye is only a Sophomore he was one of the first five this season, lie has shown great improvement since last year and is expected to show even greater improvement next season. “BAKE” HAROLD BAKER Bake plays a good defensive game and always seemed to draw the other teams’ best scorer. He could be counted upon to make 4 or 5 points every game. He was a good set shot. He is a Senior. “GABBY” RAYMOND RENTFROW When things were at the lowest ebb Gabby always carried the team along with his fighting spirit. Although Gabby was not a scorer he was a very pood ball-handler and rebounder. Gabby is another Senior. ROSS BELL His height of f ’ 1” made him a good reserve and enabled him to score a lot. Although Ross is a Junior he will not play basket ball next year because of his 8 semesters in school. “BUGGSIE” FRANKLIN CARMAN Bugpsie was our manager this season and a very dependable one, too. When jokes were played on him he always took them good naturedly. Like all the basketball team he liked to eat. Since the season was over the boys have been treated to several basketball suppers. There was one at Benny Lovins’s for the Tournament squad, manager, and Cheer leaders, one at Ralph Baker's for Tourney squad, manager, and cheer leaders and on April 18 the Community Club sponsored a banquet in the Methodist Church basement for the Grade school squad. High School squad, Cheer leaders and managers. Letters were awarded to 10 high school players this year and one to manager Carman, and to each of the four cheer leaders. The Tourney squad and manager Carman were also guests of the University of Illinois at a basketball game between the Illini and Kansas State, early in December and they were also treated to the state basketball tournament late in March. We will long remember Windsor’s 1940-41 record of 26 victories and 7 losses. —Sports Editor, Marjorie Slater. ★ Iff If WCHS 1941 � � f f f ★ —32— A A 4 A A Ay.iii Ji A lit -¥■ saixiAixov + A A A A A iiuftt A Aiii -V- ★ f f f v v POW wow f f f f f ★ Activities SPEECH The speech contestants this year enjoyed a short but successful season.

The team got first place at this contest and on the 25th of April, they went to Decatur to enter the Sectional typing contest there. DRAMATIC CLUB Under the Supervision of Miss Midgett, the Freshman and Sophomore students iormed a dramatic club for the purpose of giving the Freshmen and Sophomores some dramatic experience. Not a great deal was done in the club this year as only one play was presented. This was “Betty Behave. and the characters were Norma Jean Garrett, Mary Annette Neal, and Nadine Steele. Much is expected to be done next year in the dramatic club now that the actual forming of the club has been done. I). A. R.

Marjorie Slater was chosen to receive this award for Windsor. NEW FLAG POLE AND FLAG We got a new flag and flag pole here at W. C. H. S. last January, just before the Shelby Co. Basketball Tourney. Due to the cold weather Willis and the N. Y. A. boys had quite a bit of trouble getting the pole set. However they did very well and now “Old Glory towers forty feet above the center of the square, out in front of the school building. The flag is twelve feet long and eight feet wide. It has eight inch stripes. ★ WCHS 1941 � f � f f —35— f f f f f ★ ★ � f f f ? pow wow w V W W IP ★ GENERAL ASSEMBLIES One day last October the W. C. H.

It was decided to have a meeting every fourth Monday night of each month. Officers were elected as follows: President, Louise Rose; Vice President, Betty Slifer; Secretary and Treasurer, Eileen Kercheval. The November meeting year was spent in making clothing for the Red Cross. Most of the meetings were held at the various members’ homes. The girls have made many new friends with each other’s parents. The annuai cookie sale was held February 6. The money earned was to help pay for the girl’s Home Ec. pins. Last Christmas the girls prepared a nice box and presented it to a needy family in Windsor. They received a nice New Year’s card in thanks for it. In January 13 the Home Ec. classes served refreshments for the “School Masters’” banquet. They also served for the Future Farmers’ “Dads and Sons” banquet. On March 20 they had their own “Mother and Daughters” banquet, where everyone had an enjoyable time. The Future Farmer boys served the courses. The Home Ec. Festival was held at Flora, Illinois. The girls had a fine time and had much news to relate to us upon their return. G. A. A. A though the group is rather small this year the girls are trying gallantly to carry on. They are doing excellent work. At their last meeting lust year they selected their officers for the oncoming yeai. President, Madonna Storm: Secretary and Treasurer, Wanda Swinford; Joint Secretary, Eileen Kercheval. The Autumn Play Day was held at Mattoon. They have two new members this year—Alice Hortenstine, and Nadine Swinford.

The chapter had two teams in a judging contest at. Assumption. They judged poultry and grain. On the poultry team were Junior Larrew, Bill Spencer, and Howard Stuckemeyer. Ross Bell, Max Swinford and Eugene Hughes were on the grain team. ★ w ¥ ¥ ¥ W WCHS 1941 f f f f f ★ —41— ★ f f f f f POW WOW f I f f f The chapter built a brooder house on the parking lot at the High School. This Brooder house was used for an egg laying contest. The boys or any one who wished to have a hen in the contest could do so. Lights were added to the house. The lights were self controlled so they would turn on before daylight so the hens would have more time to work. Trap nests were also added to the house and the hens numbered so a record could be kept to see which hen would lay the most eggs. Howard Stuckemeyer’s hen laid the most eggs so she took first place. Elec Turner’s hen took second place. Third pace was taken by Junior Frandsen’s hen. The chapter lost their leader, Mr. Johnson. He was called to the army. Mr. Hamer has taken the place of Mr. Johnson. When Johnson left, the chapter gave a pot-luck as a farewell for him and a welcome to Hamer. The chapter has a contest in which each boy is to get a certain amount of points for each activity he does. The highest boy will get a reward of an emblem of F. F. A. Some of the activities are: meetings, soft ball, wiener roast, officers training school, sectional fair, pest control, judging contest, basketball, camping trip, state fair, garden seed sales, news article, father and son banquet, Farmers Institute, egg laying contest, Chicago International, project program, corn husking contest, F.

Two cars driven by high school boys crashed into each other the other day at noon, on East Main. Several of the boys were badly hurt.

For hours they had been togeher on her front porch. The moon cast its tender gleam down on the young and handsome couple who sat strangely far apart. He sighed. She sighed. Finally he said, ‘ 1 wish I had some money, dear, I’d travel.” Impulsively, she slipped her hand into his, then she sped into the house. Aghast, he looked at his hand. There lay a nickel. There was a young man named Paul, Who went to a fraternity ball; But futing the dance, He fractured his pants, And had to go home in a shawl. J. H.

They told us that Louise Rose was working as private secretary to Walter Tilford who is the manager of the Hayes Transfer Company. We decided to have our hair fixed and went to the beauty shop owned by Maxine Diepholz and Elizabeth Faye Worley. Maxine said that she was engaged to be married soon and after work they went with us to the Bullerman Drug Store which is under the supervision of “Seedy.” He is married to the former Peggy Gordon and they have a charming daughter. That night we staved with Mr. and Mrs. Jack Purvis, the latter who was Betty Arthur. They are running a duck fa� m near Jonathan Creek East of Sullivan. The next morning we visited the W. C. H. S. and much to our surprise we saw that Maurine Swinford and Helen Trigg were teaching there. We met Henry Roby in the restaurant the next noon and he said that he and his wife were running a nice poultry farm in Ash Grove. We were reading a paper and we saw where Frances Maye Douth’t had been nicking world tours and that she had received honorable mention, because of her p;ano playing, from Paderewski. Also the paper said that Harvey Walker, who is the leader of the famous Lazy Rhythm orchestra, and his soloist. Aline Hortenstine, were signed to play at the Aragan Ballroom in Chicago, we also noticed two of the members of his orchestra were “Foo” Soland and Cecil LeRoy Walker. Harvey, the paper said, would bring his group to Windsor to dedicate the opening of the New Windsor Club House. We motored to Gays, where we found Mr. and Mrs. George Hall (Bertha Hart-sell) who are running a prosperous grocery store. Bertha told us that Helen Clawson, now Mrs. Ted Risley, was leading a happy married life in Sullivan. Coming back to Windsor we visited Ralph Smith, who said he had just taken over the “Windsor Gazette” and he said that he was nuking a lot of money. He is a bachelor and hasn’t found the right girl yet. He told us that Harold Leeds and his wife had just gone to South America to spend the summer. Harold is the new Mayor of Windsor. As we were leaving the Gazette office, we met none other than Helen Kelshei-mer, who is married and is helping manage the Standard Oil Plant of Indiana. She is vacationing in Windsor and Ash Grove. Helen said she had just seen Rusty Carr who has a good paying business in Sullivan. leaving Helen, then we started down the street. Seeing a new office building we were curious, we read the sign “Slifer and Gaston Marriage Bureau.” We went in end found Betty and Reta very busy at work. They told us that their latest Clients were Max Swinford and Norman McKenzie who aren’t able to locate themselves a wife. Leaving the Marriage Bureau we met Raymond Rentfrow, who is making a name for the New Gabby Peach. He has a large perch orchard and experiment stations out in Ash Grove. Raymond said that Cissy Myers was now located at her Dad's office. She is now making herself a name, she is a famous Dietician. Leaving Gabby, we soon met Tuggle Wallace, who is now the Star-Basketball player on the “Grand Marchers” basket ball team. They have just completed a world tour. He said that Moe Munson was now on a debating team which was in New York. Marjorie Slater is his secretary and they seem to be getting along pretty good. After visiting all our old classmates of ’41 of W. C. H. S., we will be willing to go back to our nursing profession.
