From a considerable distance, the silhouette of a large grey stone building may be seen on the 
North Campus of the University of Illinois. A picture taken thirty years ago shows the same silhouette, 
although a large tree near the west entrance is no longer to be seen. 

The unchanging external appearance of the school is deceptive, however, because the school as an 
institution has been transformed, doubling in total size within the last few years. While it has long served 
admirably as a high school and as a center for certain activities such as practice teaching which are 
part of the work of the University, the school has now developed into a major experimental center. Its 
present functions, in which providing secondary education to its students remains central, now include 
functions which are part of the research and service functions of the University. 

To the members of the Class of 1961, who entered the school at the time when important changes 
were gathering momentum, we wish to thank you for your assistance in our experimental ventures, and 
we wish you well in your future careers. We hope your interest in our programs and projects will re- 
main strong, and you will be willing to help us as needed in follow-up studies. Your experiences in the 
past and in the future will continue to be of great interest to us.

SENIORS 




The Seniors 

Beginning (end) 

And the days breathe fiery 

though redbirds no more revel in a leafed elm 

As one by one they take their leave 

And we are come to be the seniors. 

Mooney's 

The triumvirate meets 

Amid an aire of "Peter Gunn" 

voices counterpoint with muffled drummings 

a cash drawer slams shut 

Mingled odours of Pall Mall, sweat and grease 

tang 

Smoke swirls up 

clouds the recessed lantern 

Cityroom 

Staff appear 

Imaginings of printers' ink stir 

waking typewriters in silent garb 

(oily, glistening machines) 

From secret darkened crypts 

effuse pink-scented triumphs 



With a noisome chatter 

they call forth copy, the populace 

Then memories cease; slide back 

To darkness and the night. 

30 

Party 

Candle -flicked shadow: 

cast softly onto the lovers' musk'd hair; 

flung lightly into the burnished blackness 

encircle white and ghost-faced ones (one-eyes wild) 

Tallow-smell beclouds a mood 

the snap of cards; a hinted melody 

It is midnight. 

End (beginning) 

Cool zephyrs blow about us 

and all clings fast in pray'r and parchment 

As one by one we take our leave 

And they are come to be the seniors.

CLASS HISTORY 



Remember the sub class of '56-'57? Tall girls, short pudgy boys . . . how Miss Keenan's study 
hall terminated in Mr. Brown's office . . . the gorgeous dinner party the girls gave for the boys--stringy 
carrots, soggy potato chips, burnt buns and watered-down barbequed beef. . . the wild orgies known as 
sub-parties--from 7:00 P.M. to 9:00 P.M. in the North Attic . . . the club formed by the girls, the Hid- 
ing Hermits . . . contracts signed in blood during study hall . . . eating lunch in Bidwell's (math class, 
that is) . . . dear Miss Snyder and her solutions to the girls' love problems . . . Mr. A's T.V. programs 
produced four budding actors and actresses from shy little subs. 

And then came frosh year. Two groups: sub and non-sub ... remember general science class? 
Holding hands in the romantic atmosphere of a lecture on limestone formation . . . the science field 
trip to Chicago . . . the cop and the Prudential Building ... the kids that didn't go back on the train 
(they stayed in Chicago for a church conference?) . . . cards and checkers on the way up, something 
else on the way back . . . John Chapman's New Year's Eve party . . . Mr. Martin, blondes, and his lum- 
berjack story. 

Progress moves on--sophomore year ... a great increase in class and school spirit . . . Mr. 
Grissom's dictatorial English class . . . the best Spring Fling this school has ever had --fountain, pond, 
goldfish, turtles, and all . . . one turtle was lost in the boys' locker room and had to be flooded out . . . 
drivers' licenses began to appear and change the whole attitude of the class toward social life . . . our 
first big class picnic and that fun (?) hayrack ride that messed everybody up ... we began to spark 
up the athletic department, too, and start the swing up. 

Junior year . . . Miss Leppert's U.S. history class ... we found out what it's like to really work 
. . . our term paper due and an amazing number of seniors absent in the morning . . . the field trip 
to Standard Oil and two angry underage students left behind . . . limited attendance at the Star Dance 
due to a strange mis -understanding . . . athletics pulled up a little bit higher . . . Mrs. Riva's enlighten- 
ing English class with some pretty interesting discussions . . . the steady-craze . . . the Big Show and 
Teen Beat . . . National Merits and other numerous tests of our intellectual ability . . . more drivers' 
licenses now terrorizing the town, little old ladies and all . . . more parties and better . . . our first 
prom, quite an experience . . . another picnic, also a blast. 

Senior year at last . . . frightening but fun ... a really terrific crosscountry and basketball season 
. . . our genius uncovered in National Merit exams and College Boards . . . college physics first semes- 
ter . . . many college applications to struggle over . . . sleeping during English . . . first and second 
entertaining hours in the lounge . . . our wild plans for a co-educational camping trip (chaperoned of 
course) in the Indiana Sand Dunes . . . our notorious parties that really weren't THAT bad . . . and the 
colleges finally reply. 

Has it been so long?

UNDERCLASSMEN 



The Halls 

7:00 

A glimmer --near a promise --lurks light 

In the Spring mists 

dust motes float lazy 

frame in latticed pencils the bookbearers 

Through the open doorways 

tree --smell drifts and mingles 

With the fresh floor wax 

(rising from buffed whorls) 
From down and away 
come soft metal clicks—student sounds. 

12:00 

The bell rings 

calls to being a picture 

fading from yellowed -gray 

to the center of light 
The milling mass—white bloused 
hold to syruped paper cups; 
bear the scent of Double mint 

and orange peels; 
recoil from the glassed panels 
into the hub, the centroid between 

green locker doors. 

3:00 

The bell rings; 

These people of the halls: 

Resolve --pulsate with organic rumble 

From the music box in the corner 

insignificance; yet a bond, a universe. 

6:00 

Footmarks in the pap'ry dust 

Where empty echoes flit 

On splayed remnants of the day 

a darkened figure hunches low 

--brilliant in the spot-of -light 
crouching in a scent of old memories. 
Through a doorway 
varicolored florescents reflect 
casting garrish arabesques on scratches 

in the tiled flooring.

ACTIVITIES 





Dance (a chronicle) 

Howdy. 

Starkness and sterility: 

two speakers vault the steely lattice 

jumble light and counterpoint -- 

Openness and rainly spatter. 

Stopping brief at Christmastime 

(the past calls strong) 

the mem'ry day--or nearly. 

Crepe -paper'd masques: 

Crinkly gelatins and tape 

anchor words of wordly wise 
Fail to hide the numbered wall, 

the basket hoop 

the parochial odour; 
Through the acoustic labyrinth 
a combo sighs. 
A fantasy of swirling skirts 
and a dark night, 
Such was our last prom. 

Campaign 

Hope: 

A progression; a chromatic 

rises out from the dark ways 

exhalts the marching-forward 

A lengthened spring; the tight 'ning screw 

quivers. 

Remnant: 

A few soiled buttons, the great debate, 

the smoke from sixty million ballots. 



Tradition 

A school -year is tradition — 

cycles cannot be otherwise. 
But somehow each is a bit changed, 

blended, rather than merged 

with all before 

Carnival is gone. 

Drama. 

The green lampcover--like the cardshark's eyeshade 

feigns darkness 

On yellow-brown'd tabletops 

dust: a gauze scrim, crystal chim'd 

lays heavy on the canvas past 

mirrors ghosts, powder -faced 

script -in -hand 

(alcohol and old greasepaint) 

along about the curtain time.

STUDENT COUNCIL 



Student Council, sponsored by Miss Ella Leppert, undertook a wide range of activities this year, 
from replacing the old and worn American flags to sponsoring a fall dance in place of the Carnival. 
Besides maintaining and reviewing the functions, of its standing committees, Council set up a system 
whereby its representatives reported to their classes once a week during English sessions. The organi- 
zations purchased Uni High sweatshirts and sold them to students. Working with the Human Relations 
Commission, Council sent two representatives to the Human Relations Board. Council members prepared 
a code for common courtesies and appointed a committee to investigate the goals of University High. The 
group worked throughout the year to foster harmonious relations between the faculty and the students as 
well as to provide leadership training for all members of the student body.

U N I 



The yearbook staff, chosen in the spring of last year, struggled all year to meet deadlines. Although 
sometimes seemingly disorganized, the enlarged staff gave valuable experience to future editors and 
publishers. Their book, longer than in the past, was financed by the student activity fund rather than by 
advertising.

GARGOYLE 



As Gargoyle's new sponsor, Mr. Daniel Lindley guided the school newspaper through many changes 
and improvements during the year. The greatest innovation was the reorganization and enlargement of the 
staff, which resulted in more interesting and better written articles. Gargoyle became the center of a school 
controversy, as Student Council debated whether or not the paper should be under their auspices.

UNIQUE 



Unique is Uni's creative writing group. Its main purpose this year was to give the members a chance 
to write original pieces and tohear constructive criticisms of their work, rather than to publish a magazine. 
To encourage others, Mr. Zahner, Unique's sponsor, read his own poetry and invited evaluations and 
suggestions. The club worked on exercises in psychological motivation and produced many stories of 
imagination and fantasy.

DEBATE AND SPEECH 



Debate Club, spdhsored by Miss Patricia Carroll, completed its second year as an organized activity 
at Uni. The club's main project this year was to investigate and practice debating the topic, Resolved: 
that the United Nations should be significantly strengthened. The members entered competition on this 
topic with several area high schools and with teams in the spring debate meet. During the second semester, 
Debate Club heard members of the University speech department lecture on various aspects of debate. 

Several students who were interested in individual rather than team speaking attended the Debate 
Club meetings to practice and to obtain advice for the speech contests held in the spring.

dent interest in science and promoting individual research. The club heard lecturers from the University 
of Illinois as well as reports by their own members. This year Science Club organized a showcase on the 
third floor to display their collections and minutes of their meetings. During the second semester the 
club took a field trip to the Museum of Science and Industry in Chicago.

PHOTOGRAPHY CLUB 



After four years of extinction, Photography Club has been revived by a group of interested students 
under the guidance of Mr. Lindley and Mr. Pease. After organizing the club in the second semester, the 
members hoped to establish a constitution, be officially recognized by Student Council so that funds will 
be available for next year's group, sponsor a photography display to arouse school-wide interest, and 
have several meetings featuring speakers on different aspects of photography. 

The Photography Club's future looks bright. Along with general improvements of the third floor 
hall, a darkroom is planned for a corner of the future APS laboratory. Also, Mr. Lindley made plans to 
offer a non-credit course in photography in which students will select their own projects and pay for 
necessary materials.

H.M.S. PINAFORE 
(or The Lass That Loved a Sailor) 

Captain Corcoran has arranged a marriage between his daughter, Josephine, and Sir Joseph Porter, 
first Lord of the Admiralty. But Josephine, loved by Seaman Ralph Rackstraw, is torn between obligation 
to her rank and the inclination of her heart. Meanwhile, the Captain is supressing his affection for Little 
Buttercup, a bumboat woman. A plot between Josephine and Ralph to elope is discovered by the maiden's 
horrified father. But the situation is saved when Buttercup announces that she had switched the Captain 
and Ralph as babes. Their position reversed, each may marry his true love, while Sir Joseph marries 
his cousin Hebe. 

The operetta cast, chosen in January, rehearsed extensively to co-ordinate dances and songs. 
"Flags, and guns, and pennants dipping," THE H.M.S. PINAFORE sailed "over the deep blue sea" in 
outstanding performances March 24 and 25.

CROSS COUNTRY 



Uni High's 1960 cross country squad went far beyond even the most optimistic pre-season expectations 
and swept all six of its regular season meets to become the most successful team in Uni sports history. 
As a fitting climax to its triumphant season, the Buckeyes entered the important District Meet and out- 
distanced eight of the twelve squads competing. 

Most important in achieving the six-meet sweep was the combined effort of all the squad members; 
but the outstanding performance of certain individuals added even more to the team effort and achieve- 
ment. Kim Dammers, a junior and captain-elect for 1961, blazed a new individual mark into the Uni High 
record book as he covered the 1.9 mile University South Farms course in 10:11, eight seconds under the 
previous record. Captain and Most Valuable Runner for this season, Steve Hall, also dipped under the 
previous individual mark and together with Dammers consistently sparked the Uni effort. Coach Keller 
awarded major letters to six seniors and to Kim Dammers and Dave Jordan.

CHEERLEADERS 




VARSITY- -Kitty Gore, Marynel Young, Jean Gammill, Judy Holshouser. 



The cheerleaders in 1960-61 were in a large part responsible for the unusually spirited, parti- 
san, and vocal crowds which cheered the Buckeye teams on to success throughout the basketball 
season. 

The eight girls elected sponsored pep rallies and assemblies to promote spirit before the game. 
They were especially successful in efforts to draw larger crowds to the games. The new "pep club" 
under the supervision of the cheerleaders added strength and unity to the Buckeye cheers.

The 1960-61 Uni basketball squad earned a record which stands by itself in Uni basketball history 
over the last fifteen years. The Buckeyes won eleven games this season, the highest total since 1944-45. 
Although the Bucks finished one game short of a winning season, they earned several other distinctions 
which added to their success. 



94 



During the middle of the season, when the Bucks were at a peak, the squad ripped off four straight 
victories --successively defeating East Lynn, Homer, Fisher, and Homer again. No other Buckeye team 
in the past decade achieved a string of four victories. In the East Lynn contest, the Bucks smothered 
their opponents by a thirty-point margin of 77-47, the second highest score made by any Uni team in 
the last decade. Uni also won its first tournament game in four years when it rapped Homer by a score 
of 56-40 in the Champaign County Tournament. 

The Buck's first victory was over Oakwood after an initial setback in the Wapella contest. Ex- 
cept for the three defeats suffered at the very tail-end of their schedule, the Buckeyes never lost more 
than two games in a row. Surprisingly, Uni never lost on its opponent's home floor until its 19th game 
at Kansas; on the other hand, it won only four games on its own home floor. 

Much of Uni's success must be attributed to its coach, Bob Carlier. He developed a series of offensive 
patterns which gave the Bucks a varied and powerful attack. He worked individually with many of the 
boys and spent hours compiling statistics on each of Uni's foes. 

Coach Carlier used a type of platoon system this year, substituting entire teams and giving all 
twelve boys opportunities to see considerable action. His usual starting combination was 6*5" Doug 
Brown at center, John Chapman at one forward, George Frampton or Steve Kellogg at the other forward, 
John Kirby at one guard, and Charles Derber or Steve Hall at the other. Although its spirit of team co- 
operation was probably the team's chief asset, three boys did most of the scoring and rebounding. Cap- 
tain John Kirby was the individual stand-out as he racked up the highest number of points, the highest 
individual total of 26 in one game, and the highest field goal percentage. Chapman and Brown, along with 
Kirby, led Uni rebounding, and were second and third respectively in point production.

JUNIOR VARSITY 



Uni High's Junior Varsity basketball team ended its 1960-61 season with a 5-12 mark. The "young 
Bucks", coached by Roy Keller for the third successive season, lost many of their games on "squeaker 
scores" of one, two, or three points. 

In spite of the team's won- lost record, Uni High had a Junior Varsity which should be a threat to 
others as a Varsity team in the 1961-62 season.

SUB TEAM 



Uni High's Subfreshman basketball team was undefeated this season. The Subs were able to 
accomplish this surprising record because they did not compete in any interscholastic games 
this year, but staged two intra-squad competitions instead. Under the direction of coach Jim 
Frillman, the Subs learned the fundamentals of competitive basketball and displayed promise

As in former years, the major function of U-Club was to sponsor the annual U-Club Dance, held 
this year on January 14. The Club also ushered at school assemblies and adopted the official convention 
of wearing letter sweaters on Fridays.

BASEBALL 



Uni High jumped into a new realm of athletics in the fall of I960. For the first time in the history 
of the school, baseball became part of the Uni athletic program. 

The baseball team, under the direction of coach Roy Keller, achieved a respectable status by the 
end of the year due to its industriousness and spirit of co-operation. 

The "Baseball Buckeyes** played two games this year, both with Ogden. The first game saw the 
Buckeyes being beaten at will by an experienced Ogden team. In the second game, however, the Bucks 
were edged in a tight game by a sole run. 

Coach Keller is optimistic about the future of baseball at Uni and is hopeful of scheduling more 
games next year.

TRACK 



The 1961 University High track squad should repeat the successes that the cross country and basket- 
ball squads of this year have enjoyed. With a sizeable group of lettermen returning from last year's squad 
--including a number of members of the undefeated cros -country team--the Buckeyes have a solid nucleus 
around which to build a successful squad. 

Uni should be especially strong in the distances where Captain Charles Derber, Kim Dammers, 
George Wadsworth, Dick Caughron, John Chapman, and Mark Swenson have all demonstrated speed and 
endurance. Other strong members of the team include Steve Hall in the hurdles, Bruce Smith, John Downs, 
and Bob Jordan in the sprints and middle distances, Sandy McCrimmon, Steve Kellogg, and John Stein- 
beck in the weights, and John Kirby in the high-jump.
