At a national meeting in Chicago in February, 1960, a high official of the Federal Govern- 
ment described University High School as "the center of the most exciting experimentation 
in education today." Other such comments from visitors from various parts of the United 
States and abroad indicate that we are having considerable success in our attempts to 
develop new practices in working with high school students. 

The contributions which students themselves make to these efforts are not as well known 
and recognized as they deserve to be. An obvious contribution is made as students take 
part in classes and activities which are experimental, but an even more important contri- 
bution lies in the active exercise of the creative powers of students as they discuss their 
experiences with new programs. Experimenters often gain insight into the teaching and 
learning processes as students explain the successes they have and the difficulties they 
encounter in learning. 

We appreciate the help we have received from the Class of I960, and we hope that its 
members will continue their interest in the development of University High School.

CLASS HISTORY 



At the age of twelve, twenty-six of us entered that ivy-covered edifice, Uni High, as starry-eyed be- 
wildered subfreshmen. The thrill of changing classes, having lockers and taking gym was ours. Homework 
piled high, and with a sense of newly found importance, we took books home- -two feet of them at a time. 
We also attended our first class dance, a memorable experience to say the least. In an effort to be grown- 
up, the girls donned lipstick, stockings, and a profusion olcrinolines and were at their most sedate best. The 
boys, in contrast, kept the party lively by pushing over chairs, having coke-drinking contests, and playing 
catch with girls' shoes. Fortunately, the feminine attempt at sophistication lasted but a night; the girls 
dropped their newly-found dignity to participate once again in "Tackle Black Tom" and "Kill the Guy That's 
Got It" with the boys. 

Suddenly we were freshmen, a curious mixture of childishness and maturity. On the one hand, we took 
great pleasure in switching the salt and sugar in the shakers in the Union and racing the elevators. In our 
more serious moods, we participated in school affairs, running (?) the student council committees and school 
publications with the help of theupperclassmen. And the parties! There were all kinds of them- -bike rides, 
picnics, slumber parties, and just plain parties given whenever we felt the need to relax after our arduous 
labors. 

By the sophomore year we were an established part of the school; we ordered our class rings, actively 
participated in the operetta and theplays, and gave our first all-school dance. However, we did not put away 
all our mischievous antics.- sophomore year was the year of MAD MAGAZINE behind English books, sardines 
in Latin, and poker-playing with outside-reading-index-cards. In the same year a new principal descended 
upon the school and tried to put an end to some of our chaotic ways. The lunchroom system was introduced, 
but in an effort to satisfy our rebellious needs, some of us sat on the curb opposite the school, lunches 
spread out, to show that WE could evade the rules. 

Ah, upperclassmen at last! The awkward sophomore stage was left behind. For intellectual challenge, 
we took tests, tests, tests, and more tests-- National Merit, Illinois State Scholarship, Junior College 
Boards --matching our wits against those of other students in the nation, and bringing honor and glory to Uni 
by our successes. The class struggled to even greater heights in its pursuit of knowledge, but added a frivo- 
lous touch by giving birthday parties in math classes. We also flocked in great numbers over to the Drivers' 
Licence Bureau, and the lucky ones were soon seen rodding about town. 

Finally, those of us who survived the long hard climb to the top appeared in September, thirty-seven 
strong to form the smallest class in the school. With industrious and inquiring minds, we were ready to be 
seniors, to be supreme. Rightfully, we took on our role of leadership, running the Carnival and the school 
publications with a practiced, sophisticated touch. Our childish pranks disappeared for the most part; only 
once did a bench appear mysteriously on the roof and never were desks seen hurtling past windows. On this 
more serious note, we bid farewell to Uni, and express a fervent hope that those who re main can followsuc- 
cessfully in the distinguished footsteps of that noble Class of 1960.

Student Council, the Student governing body, gave pupils a chance to participate in decision 
making. It worked actively to eliminate tuition and to obtain funds needed to carry on school activ- 
ities. No longer will school functions be supported by tuition and through money raised by students 
in the annual carnival. The members also amended the Constitution so that the President and Vice- 
President of the group would be elected at large rather than chosen by the Council. Council in addi- 
tion did charity work. The Care Dance was held in which over fifty dollars was raised to send 
supplies to countries overseas. The group sponsored the Clothing Drive to collect old clothes for 
the needy. Among other things, the students gave an all-school hop and helped to institute methods 
for supervising pupil behavior during first and seventh hours.

GARGOYLE 



Gargoyle is Uni High's weekly newspaper, written, edited, and produced by a student staff. 
Each week, the group met to discuss business and make assignments. A rotating staff of reporters 
was used so that all members had a chance to do some of the writing. Reporting was done on the in- 
dividual's own time; as soon as the articles were turned in, the co-editors and the page editors did 
copy reading, correcting, and layout. This year Gargoyle had a new, eye-catching letterhead which 
was a very attractive improvement. Also, a box was kept in the first floor hall making extra copies 
of Gargoyle available to the students during the week. Besides the mimeographed issues which came 
out every Wednesday, there were three printed Gargoyles, distributed at Christmas, on April Fool's 
Day and at Graduation.

U'N" 



Much of the work on this year's U' n' I actually began last spring when the co-editors and 
their associates were chosen. It continued all summer, as ads were sold and pictures were snap- 
ped everywhere. In the fall, the whole staff threw themselves into the tasks of writing copy, 
doing art-work, collecting photographs, working on layouts, and meeting deadlines. At the 
end of a busy year, with our many hours of work finished, the fun and worries over, we finally 
placed the completed masterpiece in the hands of the printer.

UNIQUE 



Unique is Uni High's creative writing club, which met for an hour once every two weeks. 
Membership was greatly enlarged as it was open to the entire student body; visitors were always 
welcome. Students could submit their compositions for evaluation and constructive criticism by 
the members. Unique received a tremendous response from the student body this year, especially 
from the underclassmen. It published one really great anthology of student and faculty writing, 
instead of the four smaller issues which had been put out in the past. All of these changes made 
Unique more unique this year than ever before.

SCIENCE CLUB 



The Science Club met weekly to discuss various scientific problems interesting to the group as a whole. 
During the first semester, each member was required to plan and carry out a project in any field of science 
interesting to him and to report on his progress at meetings. Second semester, science club's purpose took 
on a new twist and primary importance was given to scientific discussions. Lectures, films, seminars con- 
ducted by the members themselves --these constituted the stimulating fare offered to our future scientists.

TERRAPIN 



Terrapin, the girls' synchronized swimming club, met each Saturday morning in the 
English Building Pool. On Febraury 27, after many hours of rehearsal, Terrapin pre- 
sented its annual show called "Terrapin Travels." The girls in the club wrote the script, 
directed the numbers, and designed the costumes. For the remainder of the year, the group 
worked on senior lifesaving skills. Try-outs for new members were in the spring.

G. A. A. 



The Girls' Athletic Association started off the year with a Big-Little Sister Picnic at Hessel 
Park. The "little sisters" were later initiated into the organization. Points were given for parti- 
cipation in the intramurals which were held after school on Wednesday and Friday. Each girl was 
required to earn a certain number of these points in order to remain in the organization. Among 
other G.A.A. activities this year were the sponsoring of an inter-class basketball tournament, a 
hop after a game, a track meet, and a spring picnic. Of course, the biggest event of the year was 
the annual vice-versa, the Star Dance, which was, as usual, a huge success.

ORCHESIS 



Orchesis, Uni High's modern dance club, met each Monday after school under the direction of Mrs. 
Kriekhaus. At these meetings, the members studied dance technique and composition. The study of technique 
conditioned and made supple the body, and gave them skills which they were to use in their own creative 
dance compositions. A concert was held in April consisting of dances written and performed by the members. 
At the beginning of each semester, they held an open workshop; everybody was invited to come, and those 
interested were encouraged to become a part of the club.

CARNIVAL 



In spite of a thunder storm which may have kept many people at 
home, this year's Carnival made more money than ever before. Decor- 
ations, however, were so elaborate and extensive that the net profit was 
considerably lower. The halls were decorated in keeping with the theme; 
a barren desert, an old Western Ghost Town and a typical Western street 
were among the many aspects of Western life depicted. Several new con- 
cessions were added among which was the "Beat-nik" room. People 
swarmed there to hear "beat" poems and esoteric music, and to drink 
coffee in the candlelit atmosphere. Thewide variety of Western costumes 
worn by students and faculty also added fun and color to the Carnival. 
The Big Show, too, was one of the most enjoyable aspects of the evening; 
the wide variety of acts- -from comedy and popular songs to more serious 
drama- -had appeal for all. In general, the Carnival proved to be a very 
rewarding experience after a hard week of fun and work.

DEBATE 



A new club was added this year to the list of extra-curricular activities at Uni High--the Debate Club-- 
under the direction of Mr. Robinson. Already this new club has been active in the district meets in the spring 
where success means that one can compete on a state-wide basis. Because the club was not formed early 
enough in the year, it did not compete with neighboring high schools. However, the Debate Club has plans for 
expanding its activity in the future.

"DR. FAUSTUS" 



After five weeks of strenuous rehearsal, an eager cast and a competentstage crew presented 
the fall play, DR. FAUSTUS, written by Christopher Marlowe. Mike Humphreys played the 
challenging title role, the part of a man who sold his soul to the devil in exchange for knowledge. 
Charles Rose and Dick Bourgin also did excellent jobs as the devil and one of his messengers. 
The Seven Deadly Sins were realistically portrayed as were the rest of the supporting characters. 
The play was directed by Mr. Robinson, Uni's new dramatic coach, and Gill Leng, his assistant 
director. Judging by the audiences' enthusiasm, this was a very successful play. Congratulations 
to the cast and the committees.

ORCHESTRA AND BAND 



Orchestra and Band performances under the direction of Mr. Flynn greatly enriched the assemblies

Individual performers- -eleven strong--won first place in the district competition, bringing new honor to our 
music department.

MADRIGALS 



Madrigals, Uni High's most outstanding musical group, gave many fine performances again this year 
under the direction of Mr. Schuetz. Most of their programs consisted of madrigals, but they also added vari- 
ety with folksongs, spirituals, and songs in foreign languages. Dressed in their frou-frous and seated around 
a candle-lit table, they performed for churches, community groups, and organizations in neighboring towns. 
Rehearsals were three noons a week on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays. The year was highlighted by the 
annual reunion with past madrigal singers during Christmas vacation and a picnic during Easter vacation. 
The group climaxed their year with a field trip to St. Louis in the summer.

CROSS COUNTRY 



Uni High fielded one of its finest cross country squads this season. Led by Captain 
Dave Williams, the team posted a 2-5 record, the best achieved by any Uni High cross 
country squad. 

Even though they were plagued with injuries during the season, this year the boys 
worked better than ever as a team, and came back to win two out of their last four outings. 

Letters were awarded to Williams, Hall, Chapman, Wadsworth, Downs, Hull, and 
Caughron. Six juniors will return next year to provide Coach Keller with a promising 1960 
squad.

VARSITY CHEERLEADERS 



This year's cheerleaders were selected-by a vote of the student body following an assembly held for 
those trying out to demonstrate their skills. There were four girls on each of the Junior Varsity and Varsity 
Squads, and this year for the first time, there were two subfreshman cheerleaders elected by the subfresh- 
man class. In addition to giving support to the teams and leading the student body in cheering, the girls plan- 
ned pep rallies and arranged rides to the out-of-town games for the other students. The school spirit was 
greatly improved with the help of signs posted before each game and the several new cheers and fight songs.

VARSITY 



This season's basketball team was the best in four years, finishing the season with a 6-15 record. Uni 
broke into the win column with a victory over Henning, early in the season. The Bucs then beat ABL and 
Leroy before edging St. Joe in a tightly contested game. East Lynn and Homer were the others to fall before 
the Buckeyes. Throughout the season, under the superb coaching of Bob Carlier, many of the boys turned in 
excellent individual performances. Bill Martin, with 31 and 29 points in the Tuscola and St. Joe games, 
Ambie Richardson with 21 points in the LeRoy game, and John Kirby and John Schacht with 17 and 16 points 
in the Henning game provided some of the high spots. Bill Martin captained the team, while Phil Ross and 
Davey Williams were managers. 

Captain Martin was voted Most Valuable Player and won the Hugh F. Redden Free-Throw award. 
Captain of the 1960-61 team will be John Kirby. Major letters were awarded to Chapman, Hall, Kirby, Martin, 
Richardson, and Schacht.

JUNIOR VARSITY 



The Junior Varsity finished the season with a 5-13 record. Although the record itself is not as impress- 
ive as it might be, the boys played hard and gained experience for next year's varsity. Coach Keller usually 
started Charles Derber and Dick Caughron as guards, Steve Kellogg as center, John Steinbeck and Sandy 
McCrimmon as forwards.

SUB TEAM 



The subs gained lots of experience in their first year of basketball at Uni. Although they failed to win 
any of their games, it was felt that they were one of the most entertaining teams in this area. Coach Bauer 
used platoon basketball which gave everyone a chance to play. Chuck Bland was voted honorary captain at 
the end of the season. All the boys received a badge for their participation.

SEPTEMBER 

Upon entering this vine covered edifice, we were greeted with rows and rows of 
benches, dull, drab, benches, lining the halls, and rules, rules, and more rules. 
"Don't sit on the floor." "Don't eat here." "Wash P.E. clothes." "Go to class." 
"Eat Post Toasties." 

Today we were duly oriented with the processes of running our institution of higher 
learning. Organizations designed to make us super -citizens of America presented skits. 

What? No rain? Can this be a G. A. A. picnic? 

Once again we twirled to the lilting, breezy music of the record player. Yes, it was the 
annual Howdy Hop. Everywhere there were boys and girls, meeting, laughing, dancing 
— oh the romance of it all. 

"Uni High strikes back!" was the slogan of the Cross Country team. Hmmmmmmmm. 
They lost their first meet to Cerro Gordo. 

Whoops! This time it was to Bismark. 

Today the Juniors tried to prove how much superior they are in the field of learning. 
They took the annual Junior Tests given to all their kind in Illinois. 

What's this? Skipped again? No, today the biology classes were off for their playday. 
They spent the day swimming and boating in the Polywogs, playing on the swings, and, 
in their spare time, collecting insects. 





OCTOBER 

1. Congratulations to the eight new, truly talented members of Madrigals! 

5. From the multitude of girls who tried out at the cheerleading assembly, eight of the 
most proficient were chosen to help the team win, win, win! 

8,9. Teachers convened to discuss common problems- -us. 

10. Two plus one (Miss Leppert) went to Decatur to plan the fall YCCI meeting which will 
be held on December 6. 

15. Toilet paper, Indian massacres, and old crepe paper. Yes, it's the carnival assembly. 

24. Strains of "Mule Train" echo through the halls at the PANHANDLE PANIC, the biggest 
and best, best carnival ever. (CCPC thinks so anyway!) 

26. "A day like all days, filled with those events which alter " FIRE ALARM!!! 

28. The homework situation has really gotten out of hand. Teachers have been trying to 
prove they are smarter than we are since the Middle Ages, when they started teaching. 
Well, just between you and me 

31. All Hallows Eve brings with it soap, cherry bombs, and police. 













NOVEMBER 

7. Crepe paper pillars, Kleenex flowers, and garden swings carried out the theme 

at the annual Tri-High Dance. Needless to say, it turned out rather well. 

13-14. Lucifer, the Seven Deadly Sins, and Dr. Faustus were only a few of the colorful, 
and uh... .different characters in our fall play. 

13. Even with sharp-shooting, remarkable rebounding, and damaging defense, the Uni 
cagers lost to Brocton-Redman in their opening game. 

14. The Windy City was invaded by those searchers after Truth. Yes, the A.P.S. 
students were on the annual field trip. 

16. Mercilessly, the Progress Report Plague strikes, leaving in its wake many 
maimed victims. 

17. Plagus Censoritiensis strikes editors and feature editors of Gargoyle. Unfor- 
tunately, the disease was fatal. 

21. Cha, Cha, Cha, Uni wins at Henning! 

24. Sadness strikes as the Mahomet Bulldogs solidly stomp our own Buckeyes. 

We gather together to give thanks to our Pilgrim fathers who gave us democracy, 
foundations for freedom, and this wonderful Thanksgiving vacation. 

DECEMBER 

1. Oh no! We win again! This time A.B.L. goes into hysterics. 

3. The faculty called off their monthly meeting. I guess they finally realized there 

was no hope for us. 

5. So much for that winning streak. 

6. Tradition is broken, no Christmas Concert. 

7. Madrigals gave their first concert over a jail tonight I wonder if that could 

mean anything? 




8. Joyous day! The student body shouted throughout the halls in exaltation upon 

learning there would be no operetta this year. 

15. Tough luck, St. Joe! We win again! 

16. Les Anges dans nos campagnes... Today French and German classes went 
carolling at the hospitals. 

18. Surprise! Surprise! The faculty sure pulled one over on us today with that 
surprise party.... 

19. Alumni, and students gathered at the Tavern (in the Union) for one of the neatest 
dances of the whole year. 

20. Umbrellas, pitchforks, sick maidens and dragons all mixed together gave us a 
rather different version of PATIENCE, last year's operetta. 

25. Happy Birthday. 



JANUARY 

1. Last night was just too much. I have the feeling I'll never be the same again. 

4. First sophomore boy was asked to the Star Dance today. 

9. Fun time for all! College Boards. 

12. Again Uni wins; this is just too good to be true. 

15. Uni goes down to terrible defeat, this time at the hands of the Fisher Bunnies. 

19. "Easy Game" begins theChampaign County Tournament. But, sadly enough, Uni 

surprises itself, and loses to Homer. 

25-6-7 So! What the heck! I don't go to college! 

27. As usual, the senior class comes out on top. This time they sponsor an all school 

party designed to help us forget the fun times we have had in the past few days. 



















FEBRUARY 

1. Well, back to the old grind; so much for happy vacation and all that it implies. 
5-6. Wonderful weekend. We lose both nights, once to Ogden and once to Tuscola. 

12. Oh, goody! Progress Reports. 

14. Happy Valentine's Day to all you Uni High Couples. I wish you most hearty happi- 

ness in the future. 

20. The freshmen come through with a gay gala affair, the Freshmen All-School Party. 

27. Wow! Wow! Wow! That's about all the senior boys say when they mention those 

girls in the Terrapin Show. Really, it was great. 

29. Ah, my chance at last: the Star Dance. Now, all I have to do is find someone who 

will accept. 

MARCH 

2. Uni played one of its best games this year against a favored Monticello. But, sadly 
enough, Monticello proved to be just a little too good. 

10. The talented ones got out of first and second period; State Math. 

13. Happy Days are here again. What are those idiots in Princeton trying to do any- 
way—give us an inferiority complex with College Boards! 

18. Judy Mann just informed me there are only seventy-nine days until Commence- 
ment. Personally, I wonder if it will ever come. 

19. Uni Cared- -to the tune of $57.46. 

22. Soapbox speeches, "daily messages," and Marilyn Monroe posters all make a.... 

rather interesting Student Council officer campaign. 



' * ' 




25. Miss Leppert's own private D-Day. You guessed it- -our history essays were due. 

28. Hooray! Finally Spring has arrived; attendance in classes goes down. 

31. Play tryouts. So I'm not dramatic, but does everyone have to rub it in? 



APRIL 

1. Fooled you! You didn't think GARGOYLE could come out with that smashing fun 

and feature- filled printed issue as it did. 

3. Those darned sophomores! Why do they have to be so efficient, and put on such a 

neat Spring Fling. 

5. Class officer election results are out. My congratuations--and condolences. 

8. The tattered P. E. outfits in the Lost and Found are finally being put to good use-- 
the Clothing Drive is in full swing. 

9. Track meet with Paris. We can only hope... Well, at least the Orchesis concert 
was nice. 

14. The biology classes are off to annihilate the Chicago museums. I wonder if they'll 
ever let us come back. 

15. It's about time we got out of school, even if it is only for four days. 
17. I think the Easter Bunny has forgotten where I live.

6. " Turkey Run Invasion Day. " Yup, Seniors skip again, but legally this time.

Y.C.C.I.--need I say more? 

Well, I guess Nancy Prosser showed those nasty juniors who's boss. Class night 
was a regular success. (Of course, look who put it on.) 

The fifty future Carnegies in Miss Leppert's class visited Inland Steel in Chicago 
today. Boy, was that bus ride fun! 

The Spring Play was a howling success. 

Am I glad the seniors aren't out there jumping high hurdles or running the mile 
in that girls' track meet. 

G.A.A. held its Spring picnic. Rumor has it, they hired a witchdoctor to ward off 
the traditional rain. Wonder if it worked? 

Baccalaureate. My heavens, it's for us! 

JUNE 

Final exams--for the first time I have a halfway excuse for not studying. I 
couldn't improve my 2.135 average this late, and I've been accepted at a college- - 
must be my personality. 

Thus we depart, with diplomas in hand, shortly to say, "I came, I saw, I con- 
quered." 

All of the prom-going couples were caught up in a dashing whirl of all night 
parties and the traditional breakfast. ("Gunsmoke" was certainly good that night- - 
I ought to know.)
