S. has operated since the autumn of 1921 and the many boys and girls who have found pleasure and profit from its existence will be sad to see it go. But its passing offers a new day in education to the students of tomorrow and it is the wish and hope of this class that those to come will love the new school as we love the old. mm FVCULTY VU'konios You Bac 'uwxupaf °c n£ 1948------= POW-WOW - 1948 WINDSOR COMMUNITY HIGH SCHOOL On July 1, 1921, Windsor Community High School came into existence and on July 1, 1948 it will cease to exist. For 27 years it has served well the youth of this community. J. A. Alexander was the first principal, directing the school until 1929. From that date on J. H. Dunscomb has served in that capacity. Thus the district during these 27 years has had only two principals, and, incidentally, only two athletic coaches—Mr. Dunscomb and Mr. Curry. Many teachers have come and gone during this period and because these men and women served so well as instructors, companions, and the creators of ideals, we wish to dedicate this page to them.

Dunscomh 1948 = POW-WOW = 1948 CLASS PROPHECY In a quaint caravan there’s a lady they call the gypsy. She can look in the future and drive away all your cares. Yes, yes, as I am now around a camp fire with gypsies all around me, I well get to peer into the crystal ball and see what fate has in store for my old classmates, at W. C. H. S. As I have been out of school a year now I decided I'd take a little try and warn them about their future. It’s a very warm Southern night in June. The moon peeps in and out, while the stars are shining brightly. My friends here are very queer, but I hope they will hold my interest as well as yours during this mystic spell. The Queen of the clan is now speaking. “Watch closely my dear and believe in me.” She turns the crystal ball around and the first thing I see is a vivid figure. Now it comes to light and I can tell it is Joyce Allen. I can see it very plainly now. It is Joyce walking down the church aisle. Waiting at the altar is Harold Hamilton. The preacher now comes to light reading the wedding vows. The pianist strikes up the processional. The newly married couple look very pleased walking down the aisle and we wish them all the happiness in the world. The gypsy again moves the crystal ball and I see a man with a big cigar in his mouth. He looks like a real business man behind that desk. Well! surprise, surprise if it isn’t Robert Lawrence Angell, Jr. In walks his secretary who is none other than Jean Kibler. I can tell by the look on his face he is still on the loose. At the rate that he is dictating those letters he must be a very busy man. He also must be rolling in the dough because of all those automobiles, yachts and fancy buildings around. The music ball lights up again and in walks Joan Beldon, in a very business like manner. I’ll bet I’d be safe in saying she is the murder or crime reporter for the Star Times. Yes, there is the sign above the door. I don’t see any familiar men in her life but she has loads of surprises in store. It seems that “Jo” would still prefer going single, for she seems very nappy. The next vision that comes to light is Wanda Benson. I know that that isn’t her name by now because she is very busy in the kitchen of a little white cottage. Yes, she is a very busy little farmer’s wife. Here comes a little boy, I rather think his name must be Delbert II, for he is the very image of his father. That little mail box out in front says Mr. and Mrs. Delbert Syfert, Pekin, Illinois. I guess she had been looking forward to this for a long time. Oh no! couldn’t be, anything but that. Who do you think sh ould burst in through that door but, Jim Bunyard, Ed Hunt, Bill Steele and Kenneth Storm. They seem to be in a big hurry. They rush up a flight of steps and into a broadcasting station. The announcer announces that the Alley Cats are now on the air. They all tune up and start singing. Very nice going there boys, and by the actions of the audience they think so too.We didn’t know that we did have such wonderful singers back during the high school days. Next is that brillant but romantic George Burrell. It looks like he is entering a college door. Yes, and over the door, inscribed in marble, is the name of the institution, George and Carolyn. This used to be William and Mary College but now George is professor and he and Carolyn have changed it to a dancing school. They both teach all sorts of dancing now and are making a great success. George is the world’s champion ballet dancer, which has made the institution famous. Here is another classmate that comes to light. It happens to be Elsie Carr. Believe it or not, but Elsie and Johnny Garrett have gotten married and settled down to a nice quite home life on the farm. They are happy raising healthy little Gar-rettes and also sheep, cattle and hogs. They are a very quiet happy little family. Of course, all the little boys and girls are bringing straight A report cards home carrying on the old family tradition. I hear the clatter of dancing feet, very light and very skillfully maintained, and guess whose little feet those are. Thats right, James Davis! When he was back in high school, I guess, none of us appreciated him like we should. They say he is the second Fred Astaire. After his much applauded act a very beautiful girl from the audience ran up to greet him. The couple looked as if they were very much in love when they finally left the over joyed crowd and the big spotlighted stage. 1948 - POW- WOW —= 7948 BETTY ELLEN GASTON — “I don't care for the Senior boys, but oh, those Juniors.” Joke Editor of Pow-Wow; F.

See Slater id am Slccle, 1948 ■ POW- WOW 1948 CLASS PROPHECY Next comes an expensively dressed woman. It happens to be Dorothy (Dewar) Swinford. She seems to be waiting on Charlie. Yes, there he is all dressed up in a tuxedo. They must be stepping out to supper tonight. They walk out the door and a negro chauffeur is waiting in a new Cadillac. They don’t have to us Mr. Dewar’s car anymore. There is something that worries me and that is I wonder where they struck their gold mine. I guess that is one thing I’ll never understand, until it really happens. I now hear a low clatter of drums and the curtains go up. There it a little woman on a trapeze. She must be very brave because I can’t even make out who she is, she is so far up. As she comes lower and lower it seems to be Marjorie Doehring. She is very graceful and doesn’t seem to worry where she is going to land. I see a big flashy diamond on her left hand. There goes the hero out to catch her. I don’t recognize him as he is most likely from Strasburg. As I have said before we didn’t know that we did have such talented people in our class. The gypsy turns the crystal ball again. Whoever is coming on next is sure full of energy because the mystic ball about fell out of her hand. Here comes a man with little mustache, or cookie duster as we used to call it. I guess this surely must be David Dunscomb. He is now the National Laughing Comedian. I was surely surprised to find him still single. Jean Carr dropped out of his life when he was thirty-five. She says she got tired of waiting for him and he thought he was to young to be tied down yet. He is trying to regain her back, which looks pretty successful. Next happens to be Charles Fransden. He seems very contented in that easy chair with his big old peace pipe. His little blonde wife, from Sullivan, is very busy doing all the work. I understand she makes all the living and does all the work while “Punkie,” takes life easy. He certainly looks as if he enjoys life more than he did back in high school. The next person that comes to light is Barbara Fugate. She looks pretty nice all dressed in white. Yes, she turned out to be a nurse, just like she had always wanted. I can also see a soldier in the crystall ball. I guess that is Dick Stark, her army friend. After he gets out of the army they intend to live a nice quiet home life. I imagine that this nursing course will come in handy too. The gypsy hasn’t had time to settle the crystal ball until something comes in. It looks like a bird, no a man or no it is Jack Gaddis. He is driving some kind of a contraption that certainly has the speed. I see it now and it is a vehicle that he always dreamed of inventing so that he could travel faster on the ground. He has a factory now that turns out thousands of these vehicles day after day. He is really taking in the money too. Joycelyn Green now appears and she seems very busy studying. She is attending the U. of I now where she is very popular. She is a cheerleader for both the football and basketball team. She is the Queen this year and is president of the Home Ec. Chapter. She is still shopping for a man, but she isn’t worried for she knows there are plenty to be had. I now see a young lady giving children their daily exercises. I wouldn’t know of any other girls in our class that are as active in P. E. unless it could be Yvonne Hurley, which it is. She is a teacher of Physical Education in some little village’s high school. Yvonne looks very happy in this field of work. P.S. She is going to be an old maid. I now see Colleen Jones. She looks very weary underneath that golden flock of hair. She is now entering the door of Windsor High School. Don't tell me she is still taking post-graduate courses. No she is going into the English room. All the class now appear and by writing on the board she must be the Latin teacher. Don’t tell me Colleen, of all the people in our class, has become an old maid. When class is dismissed she rushes out the door to get in a truck with Bob Daily’s name on it. I guess that will teach us to worry about our own affairs. Paul Juhnke is next. He looks very busy and carries himself in a business like manner. I guess after years of college he has won his doctor’s certificate. He has set up a clinic in the edge of Strasburg. He has several nurses around him but he has picked out one as head of staff at the hospital as well as Chief of Staff at home. 1948 = POW-WOW----1948 CLASS PROPHECY As the crystal ball turns again what should behold our eyes but the inside of a gymnasium filled with people. I wonder what this could have to do with our classmates. It is now viewing the bench with the basketball players on it. The boss or coach is Lee Slater. We always thought that he was a smooth player back in high school but never thought that he would turn out to be coach. The crystal ball is moving so it will show some of the faces of the crowd. I wonder what that has to do with Lee. Oh! there is Elizabeth (Kays) Slater. She has a little boy with her and I don’t know just by looking whether that is another little nephew or not. We will let you figure that out for yourself. At any rate she is still the faithful team follower. The next figure is Helen McQueen. When she was back in high school she always liked a lot of excitement and adventure. By the looks of that uniform she has given up nurses training and became a W. A. C. Recruiting Officer. Helen has a lot of extensive traveling in her future. I wonder when Johnnie D. dropped out of her sight? I don’t know but I guess that is some more personal affairs. Jeanette Morford is the next to be shown in the crystal ball. She is walking across a large carpeted floor. I see women all wrapped and dropped in furs, watch every move that she makes. I see it all now she has turned out to be a model. Who would have thought it? She seems to know what she is doing showing all the latest fashions. She looks very happy so I’ll bet Jack Beaumont isn’t too far away. No there he comes into the crystal ball now, he was home running a nursery. He seems to know his business. The next to come into view is a tall, dark, and handsome man. I can't recall any other classmates that looks like that unless it could be Gene Noffke. He is going into a garage with the name over the door NOFFKE AUTO REPAIRS I guess he has a business all his own now. Now the view shows the inside of the building and there are all kinds of cars setting around. It looks as if Gene has a very progressive business here. As the crystal ball stops turning this time in marches Davadia Peadro. She must be out in California for it looks nice and sunny out on that beach. She climbed into the Life Guards chair, so she must have turned out to be the life saver, rather than to be a music teacher. There is Bill Fought slaving away in an orange grove. I guess that diamond really meant business, that she got for Christmas in her Senior year. Next is Kenneth Quigley at a big switch board. By his actions he is certainly busy getting all of those calls through and also telling the other workers what to do. He specialize in making appointments for other people. He always liked this kind of work back in high school, but no one expected him to operate one all by himself. I now see a preacher doing his best until his voice wears out. He stops and takes a drink—of water. I can’t imagine who that big husky fellow is. I believe that must be Harold Smith but I wonder where in the world he picked up all of that fat. It was also a great surprise to me to find him preaching. He always knew the words back at high school, but the trouble then was he used them backwards. By his grave face though he must have turned out to be a great speaker of the truth. As the crystal turns again it stops at the imagine of Sara Jane Warren. She is boarding an airplane. I wonder if she is traveling or going somewhere. By the looks it is neither one, because she has on an air hostesses outfit. I guess this was why Sara Jane was always on a diet and always saying she was going to be an old maid. She is really busy giving all of those people service, but it was the kind of business she always dreamed of. Next we see a large white castle appearing but as it gets closer it has the words Hyland Funeral Parlor. Just then out walks someone that must be me. On the inside of the parlor I see all kinds of mounted animals. I guess that we are going to run a funeral service for peoples, pet dogs, cats, canaries, and other things. I never quite expected this, I believe that gypsy must be playing tricks on me. There is a loud clap of thunder and the sky lights up like a search light. This means the mystic spell is all over. If any of your fortunes are disappointments to you, don't blame me for I saw this all in the crystal ball that my friend the gypsy is holding. I guess this means now that I’ll take my leave. Lots of Luck. 1948 == POW-WOW ===== 1948 COMMENCEMENT ACTIVITIES May 14 Senior Play, “Whose Little Bride Are You?’’ May 21 Junior-Senior Banquet Notes about banquet: May 23 Baccalaureate Service.

ODDS AND ENDS Band at Basketball Games The WCHS Band, under the direction of Mr. Begeman, played at all the home games. They did not appear at the Shelby Tourney because of the crowd which showed up at the games. Drum Majorettes This year, as last, the band was accompanied by two majorettes, Carolan Doty and Jo Ann Dickinson. These two girls gave an exhibition at the last home game and received a big hand for a job well done. D A R Medal Jeanette Morford was the winner of the D A R medal this year. She has been prominent in school activities through her four years and was fully worthy of the honor. She and her sponsor, Mrs. Dunscomb, attended the presentation ceremony at Shelbyville. Cheerleaders The Four J’s—Joycelyn Green, Jeanette Morford, Jean Carr, and Joy Hennigh, were elected by the student body early in the fall. They worked hard under the direction of Mrs. Dunscomb and won the applause of the crowd on many occasions. WCHS News in Gazette “Squeaky” Joan Beldon, wrote the WCHS News the past year. Students eagerly avaited The Gazette to see if they made “Idle Rumors.” State Tournament WCHS had only four State Tournament tickets this year. Different boys attended on the different days and reported a great time. DeKalb Medal The medal to the outstanding senior agriculture student given by the DeKalb Seed Corn Co. was won by Bob Angell. Congratulations, Bob. Bus Transportation Five busses brought the high school and grade pupils into town. The drivers are Lincoln Booker, Jim Shafer, Calvin Giesler, Ben Elliott and Clinton Wall.

Basketball game with Tower Hill tonight. 8. Did you see those cute girls (?) running around at school today? Confidentially it was Lee S, Kenneth S, Bill S, and Jim B, in skirts.

Yes, it’s Liz and if you don’t believe it just take a look at Lee’s hair. It has some of its curls cut out. 11.

ATHLETICS 1948 - POW-WOW 1948 THE SEASON Shelby County Champions! For on the night of January 30, before a capacity crowd which stood in line outside the gym door from 5:00 to 6:00 p. m., our team defeated a great Strasburg team 61 to 45. Seldom had the followers of the Blue Devils seen better shooting than they saw that night. Edwards, Carter and Slater scored 30-foot shots with monotonus regularity, and that was the difference between the two teams. Strasburg’s zone was effective against close-in shots but could not stop our long shots. To get to the finals Windsor defeated Stewardson 51 to 32, and Shelbyville (defending champions) 48 to 32.

At Effingham, during the first half, the passing and shooting was almost letter perfect, and we left the floor at the half leading 35 to 21. We slowed down in the last half but won handily 51 to 44. The game we lost at Shelbyville (played in the Sparks gym.) was a heart breaker. Things wouldn’t break for us. Slater fouled out and everything seemed to go wrong but toward the end of the game we surged forward and got within two points of them. Then Carter took a rebound, dribbled to the center of the floor and shot. The Windsor crowd screamed and Shelby wept for the ball dropped through. But here is the sad part of the story. In the excitement the referee’s whistle had blown seconds before Carter had shot for he had fouled on the rebound and his wonderful effort was all in vain. We lost 42 to 39. At the Paris Holiday Tournament we drew Mt. Carmel and after a poor first quarter we trailed 15 to 7. We came back strong and got closer and closer to the tall boys but our effort fell one point short. We lost 54 to 53. In the Mattoon Regional we drew Atwood, the winner of the Atwood District. Our team looked good and we won 61 to 37. Next was Tuscola, whom we had beaten by 12 points earlier in the season, but in this game the shots would not drop through and we lost 44 to 40. A glance at the tabulated scores will reveal a successful season with 17 victories and nine defeats. The second team won 18 while losing two—those to Teutopolis and Altamont. Quigley, Hennigh, Baker, Carman and Elliott were the usual starters. BASKETBALL SQUAD Front Row: Paul Juhnke, Gene Noffke, Lawrence Carter, Jim Bunyard Lee Slater, Don Edwards.

The team consisted of Hyland, Welch, Kays, Hennigh, Rankin, Elliott, Smith, Cecil, Cordes, Baker, Worley, Quigley, Swinford, Larrew and Carman. 1948 POW-WOW---- 1948 A THLETICS THE FIRST TEN Slater was our high point man for the season. His shooting ability proved a deteriment to other teams many times. He will be missed next year as he is a senior. Lee was picked as center on the all-star team from Mattoon Regional. Carter was a hard-driving junior forward, whose scoring ability was respected by other teams. Brud was always in there fighting and tallied many points. Noffke, a lanky senior center, whose height enabled him to grab many rebounds was an asset to the team. He showed his scoring ability at the last of the season by putting needed points through the hoop. Edwards, a junior guard whose floor work and canny basket shooting kept him on the first five. Don earned a guard spot on the all-star team selected at the Mattoon Regional. Bunyard was a consistent ball player whose steadiness kept the team in balance. Jimmie’s ball handling will be missed next year as he is a senior this year. Juhnke, Paul’s rebounding and shooting won games for the team will be missed next year. His best game of the year was against Strasburg. Steele competently filled a guard spot when called upon. Bill was always in there fighting and working for the team. This is his senior year. Dunscomb is a senior who will be lost this year after two years on the varsity squad. Dave played center and forward on the team. His best game was against Shelbyville in our first encounter. Baker, a rangy junior center, who aided the first team in many contests, will be one of the attractions next year. Jack keeps the spirit of the boys in a fighting manner. His services were mostly on the second team where he put some beautiful shots through the nets. Quigley, a freshman guard whose floor work and quiet ways will make trouble for the opposing teams for the next three years. Bobby has a keen eye for the basket, and played regularly on the second team. Coach Curry has the magic touch. His teams always are well versed in fundamentals and win more than their share of games. His team this year played a hard schedule and finished with a fine record. More success to you, Coach Curry. SOFTBALL Our softball team played two games last season. They were both with Westervelt. We won the first game to the tune of 40 to 7. The second game we won by an 11 to 4 score.

Two days later he casually gazed out the window and saw the same man skipping down the block. Two days after that he looked out again. Sure enough, there was the same man skipping down the street. By now Jobe’s curiosity was burning. So he ran outside and stopped the skipper. “Excuse me,” he said, But would you mind telling me why you are skipping down the street?” “Not at all” answered the man. “I went to see my Dr. last week because I get very bad headaches; and he gave me some medicine.” “I get it—the medicine makes you skip,” said Jobe. Oh no, the Dr. said to take the medicine one day and skip the next!” Lost! A fountain pen by a freshman with a cracked top. 1948 — POW-WOW--- 1948 JOKES Willis Walker: “Oh, good morning, Miss Brown.

Now if I had some bubble gum I’d put it in my mouth And if the wind was in the north I’d blow it to the south But if the wind was in the south Instead of in the north I’d put it all inside my mouth And roll it back and forth. Mrs. Norman: “Harold, you put the credit item under the debit side no wonder you can’t get a trial balance.” Harold Wilson: Yes, but I’m left handed.

That thunder was so loud it sounded as though heaven and earth had smacked together.” Rosella: “Why didn’t you wake me Up? “You know, I can’t sleep while it thunders.” Mr. Curry: When George Washington admitted that he chopped down the cherry tree, his father didn’t touch him.

In fact, he is thinking of going into radio as a sound effect man. His imitations of the galloping hoofs of “Silver,” his French harp playing, his singing, and his all around ability to entertain (especially the girls) may open a great career for Ed. More power to you, Ed. GEOMETRY: Given: I love you. To Prove: You love me. 1. I love you 2. Therefore I am a lover. 3. All the world loves a lover 4. You are all the world to me. 5.

He defeated the defending champion Jack Gadidski, by a knockout about two minutes in the second round. He is fighting in the flyweight class at present but as soon as he picks up a few more pounds he plans to challenge Joe Louis. As you can see he gets his name from his incessant fighting in the ring and the way he “Jells” his opponents Mr. Bobanjell is planning to make a tour of the United States with all the profits going to the charity organization for homeless cats. TAKES UP PIANO Miss Gwendolvn Hammer, popular home ec. teacher at WCHS, has taken up the piano and according to her teacher is doing real well. When asked why she had gone in for such a hobby at her age she replied, “When supper is over and the dishes are done and Bill sits comfortably in an easy chair, can you think of anything that can complete the picture of wedded bliss other than soft piano music?” And she has something there. What Was He Doing There? A sign on the bulletin board March 17 read, “Found: Some money inquire of office.” Lee Slater came in to claim the money but when informed that one of the girls had found it in the girl’s room Lee disclaimed his claim on it. If love is blind And loves can’t see Then why in the heck Doesn’t someone love me. Gene Noffke THE CYCLONE ______Blows Everywhere_____ Volume 3 Published by Sug Tornado and David Hurricane So I’m Told A certain young man (trombone player) asked E. Mullikin what she would say if he asked her to the Sophomore party. Her answer was a plain “No.” So he said “Well, I won’t ask you.” People wonder why Bill Steele is called “Limey.” It all goes back to the day when Bill wore C. Doty’s red shirt and someone said “Watch out, the Red Coats are coming.” Poor Tommy Hennigh nearly passed out of the picture the week of March 8. He couldn’t play ping pong, he ate lunch by himself—his mind was 50 miles away—in Edinburg. Lee Slater mentio n e d something about George Burrell’s New Look. Don’t give up George, that wave is looking better everyday. Jean Kibler got a ride to school almost every noon. We have never been told how Bob Angell’s car always happened along. When Bob Cecil was asked how it happened James Kays stepped out so often with Jo Ann Dickinson, he replied “If I had a car and a ten dollar bill I would give him all the competition he would want.” Kenneth Storm’s mus-tach felt the keen edge of a rr.zor March 15.
