The Ant1o6ll Oountl'y Fair atfor.ded a means of money making during our
first three years. ~he first year the sale of t:dnll;ets ed. novelties filled
our treasury. . Our next attempt was with candy,·. crackerjack, and pop. We
decilled to do something b,igger at our Junior enterprise; so we sold oand7
and had a dance in the.~ommeroie.l room.
In Jfovembe:t our clatts presented 11 Regs.tts., • a. t'hree act comedy a.bout
boats and airplanes. ~ectal sound effects were necessary. K.enneth llorteJI.'\'!

JUNIOR CLASS
We$ the class of '37 ~ sta..rted off' with a flow.'ieh. Our first big task
was to learn how to be high so.hool students. It w.a.s terribly strange and .awe
inspiring at first but we soon were more or lees successfullY acting like
old timers, Class officers were then elected. J{enneth Brown. as president;
Bertha Peterson 9 Vice-president; Clara Sherwood. seo:retary;md Valiere Wilton, treasurer.

Initiation Day wa.a just one long jitter for us as the Juniors tried
hard to impress us with their comparative worth.
All of us were required
to wear green that da.y and to do the Juniors' bi.dding.
Some o:f the whims
we had to obey were en.trprising.

An innovation introduced while we were Freshmen was a banquet given at
tlle high school for our parents and teachers. A program of talks and songs
by members of the class was climaxed by a basketball game between two teWMs

chosen from among the boys of the class. This was the first time during the
year tllat we ha.d a chance to learn what bappens when.one eats more than e~
nougl:l, but the second. opportunity oWMe when we had a pionio at :Minto 1s woods.
There the loads of sandwiches furnished by the girls and the dozens of hot
dogs. buns. and marshml!l.llQwa brought by the boys filled even the most ambitious eaters.

During our first year our ways of making money were not only moderately sucoeasful but extremely varied as well~ ranging from the usual sale of
candy to ice cream, flower bulbs~ and buttermilk.

'!'he next year. 1934-135. Roger Thill served as president; Va.l:!.ere 11'11ton. was Vice-president; Jayne Allner~ secretary; and Donald Minto, treasurer. The year also brought us three changes in advisers, Mr. Cox being replaced by Mr. Suter~ the first semester. and by Mr. Spacie the second.
Our major activity during the year was managing the cafeteria during
the Antioch Oountry Fair.
It was a great deal of wcrk 0 as those who did
the kitchen police duty will long rememper, but it was well worth the
effort and the entire class cooperated to make the venture a wooess.
Twelve boys and girls of the class, gay in .Japanese robes and :flower~:J,
served at the Junior Prom 3 and did muoh to givfl the affair a oaptivat:l.ug oriental atmosphere.
'l'he last event of the year WI'U3 P.nothe:r gaet:ronomio, euooeel!l, a p:l.onio
heldat Paddook 1 s Lake, 'ifisoonsin, where everyone gorged themselves on hot
dogs and sandwiches, and drank ama!!ling quanti ties of .pop.
Bob lladsen and
Otto. Hanke fell in . the lake and then mana-ged to capsize the boatload of
boys tbat came to their rescue. lio one seemed able to prove thl!.t the boa~
load had been dunked purposely, and by the 'liiillie tha1l n.s argued out
theil'
pants were dry so i t didn't utter anyway.
Our Junior play was "Reach for the Koon.w a comedy in a western dude
ranch setting•. so close to the mountains that you could walk to them before breakfast Wand get back in time fox cawfee and waa:fless as Pete Zeien
so frequently and drawlingly announoe.d&
The l)lay was hard work and seemed
to bave all the bad luck in the world during rehearsals but it played very
smoothly to full houses both nights s.o everybody finiehed bappy.
The income from the play, augmented by the profit from candy sales
throughout the year was used to change the auditorium into a Spanish patio
with iron-railed ba.loonies. roses a-blooming all round, and a softly colored fountain singing to itself in the moonlight.
Potluck suppers and
thr.ee hour work sessions after eohool made the roses bloom .and steady work
by the boys made the twisted iron railings. the whispering fountain, and
the softly lighted nooks amongst the roses.

On the first day of school (a long time ago.) we were all rushing about
asking everybody where the classrooms were~ what the bella meant,

It was aweird sort of a waking dream~ but things gradually

took on a solid look and, quite suddenly, we realized that we felt quite at

leadership

during the year we sold hamburgers at. the fair 9 and by hard work and
erati.on made twenty dollars profit.

The same willing spirit made our class

the winner of the inter-class contest in the sale of basketball t:l..ckets.
We won again in the inter-class dramatics contest.

In this event our

entry was •Mrs. Hull's Club Paper,• a comedy which made a real hit with the
audience.

Basketball also provided an opportunity for ouT members to show

their abilities,

and two of them, Jack Crandall and Russell Doolittle, won

places on the teamso
So many of us were interested in music that Mr. Von Holwede helped us
to form our own orchestra. Thus the dance we held was strictly a class product,

from dancers to music.

Our orchestra also furnished the music for a

dance given by the Sophomores at which we were guests.
George Hawkins was elected president for our Sophomore year; the other
officers were Russell Doolittle, vice-president; Charles Hawkins~ secretary;
and Vileta Baethke~ treasurer.

The balloting for these

officials proved

very exciting because of a series of six ties that occured during the voting.
At the 1935 fair we sold candyt popcorn ba.lls,and taffy apples eo suocess:t'ully that we brought a. tidy sum to our treasury.

Later in

the year

some of this money went :t'or a potluck supper and dance to which the

FUTURE FARMERS OF AMERICA
A:NTIOOH CHAPTER
The Antioch Chapter of the Future Farmers of America was one of the
first to organize in the state of Illinois. This ie a National Organization of Vocational students studying agriculture in the high schools of
the United States. One member from our chapter was the first president
of the State Association of ll'uture Farmers when that Association was organized at the University of Illinois.
During the past year our looal chapter has accomplished and taken
part in many activities. Poultry, livestock- and grain judging contests
are conducted several times during the year at various places throughout
the state. Our Poultry team won the State Championship this year and
represented Illinois at the National Contest at Kansas en ty. In cooperation with the Home Economics Club our chapter presented a play "OH KAY"
last November as one of the means for raising moneyto conduct our activities, One of our members Frank Verkest 9 re.oeived the 3rd degree at the
Illinois Convention and was elected Vice President of the State Asso.oiation and placed in charge of section two.
As for the olub itself we encourage thrift banking for the F. :r. A.
Club Students, we carry on Cooperative Marketing enterprise and through
our savings and money earned we are able to loan out money on easy terms
for members who wish to start projects. We believe that in working on
these and many other class activities we are able to acquire a lot of experience and enthusiasm which will be of great help to us in the future.
As a result of these activities we placed 2nd in the Activity Contest held for all the chapters in section two.

m:AOH FOR THE MOON

A dude ranch in sight of the Rookies ia owned by Johnt an Englishman~
and his Irish partner~ Larry. John came to the West to forget hie disappointment over having Pamela Parnell, the girl he loved. engaged to marry
his older brother. the heir to the title, Earl of Sherbourne.
A claimant to the title broke into the news by being jilted by Jenifer Lee, an Amerioan heiress. Soon afterwards through a series of
accidents the two girls and the li:arl arrived at the ranch. Jenifer manages to
buy the position of companion to old Mrs. Larrimore from the girl to whom
it rightfully belongs.
She soon discovered that her own identity of Jenifer has been used by
eome of the girls at the ranch to add glamour to a little wallflowert Patricia Pennington. 'rhe arrival of the 11 :hrl~ put this group to a great deal
of 'lirouble to conceal their deception.
Pamela eventually recopil!led Larry l!llld John u the friends from the
past.
John's brother died before the wedding. and in the years following
P&mela had discovered that she really loved John.
On recognizing him she
told of her love$ only to find that he had already fallen in love with
Jeni:ter Lee.
Excitement rapidly multiplied, however, as Tony$ a dude enamoured of
the West, kidnapped Betty Breckenridge. one of the gue~te, and carried her
away on horseback during a terrible storm to a town where they Wf'Jr.e u.rried; the bogue PJ:arlil wae exposed by :Pamela; Patricia. u.rried a. man from
the neighboring rtme~h; Larry and Sally Sherwood fell in love; Ha.l Sherwood
and Pat Pennington were also etruok by 0\wid' s darb.

In the balcony of .the 1Cing 1 s court the Infanta of Spain was celebrating her twelfth birthday.

Tired of being a queen all her life, the

· Infanta demanded that she be able to do as she pleased at least for the
day.

The Duchess, her guardian, became exasperated when the young princess refused to do her bidding.
As a surprise for the Infanta, in celebration of the occasion, the
Lord Chamberlain, in charge of the Fantastic, arranged for the dwarf to
dance.
A Moorish Attendant announced orders and wishes with all the formality used in the Spanish court of the sixteenth century. The Count of
Tierra Hueva,

the Infanta's egotistic cousin and playmate was asked to

witness the dance of the Fantastic.
The princess, well pleased with the dance and songs, threw the Fantastic a rose.
The AtteDdant, after preening himself before the mirror, left it uncovered and the Fantastic saw himself for the first time.

Realizing that

the IDtanta could only be ridiculing such a grotesque figute,
knew himself to be, he died btoken-he~ted.

In a royal court of the 15th century many lords and ladies aa.ited the
return of their Xing who ha.d left thirty years before to learn how to be
worthy of his throne.
'.!.'he younger peeple grew restless and threatened to
:rebel if the King was not on .the throne by Christmas Eve.
Andrea, a young pagef went forth to seek the Xing with only faith as
his ~de and vowed that he would not set foot inside the pale.oe gates until he had fulfilled hie quest.
·
On his journey he stopped to help sick pilgrims by the nyside and
oontre.oted the plague.
A lowly porter found him .and brought him to a hospital where nuns oared tor him until he was well.

Taken back to the p&liMJe on Christmas EVe by the porter,Andrea. d:l.soovered that this kind man was the King for whom he had been searching.
The rebele and the rest of the court bowed in homage to Hioha.el, the
Xing, who led them to tll,e midnight sEu.·vioe while the organ played a OhrhtPiii hymn.

The year of 1936 saw a marked increase of enthusiasm for all of the
musical organizations of Antioch High .School. Un.der the leadership of Mr.
Von Holwede Band, Orchestra, Glee Club and Chorus all enjoyed an increased
program of ac.t ivi ties. A new group, the Boy • s Glee Club, also did much to
increase the opportunity for expression of musical ability.
These musical groups have participated in many activities during the
past year ranging from entertaining crippled war veterans to performing at
school functions.
There was a music festival held at Libertyville May 25, in which our
musical organizations participated, The other high schools taking part were
Palatine, Gurnee, Bensenville, ,Leyden, Warren, and Arlington.
