Yearbook Name
The Golden E 1957
Location
Eldorado, Illinois (Saline County)
Additional Information
This year the GOLDEN E is
able to record one of the im-
portant milestones in the his-
tory of E.T.H.S. The large affir-
mative vote of the people of
the district on the bond issue
made possible the fifth and
largest building construction
program in the history of our
school. Excavation work was
started in June 1956 and the
construction is to be completed
by August 1957. The next six
pages present a view of what
we can expect at that time.
NTRODUCING THE GOLDEN ‘ E ’ FOR NINETEEN HUNDRED
1
c
For the first time in the history of E.T.H.S.
the school grounds have expanded across a
street. A large modern gymnasium is being
constructed in newly acquired property be-
tween Saline Avenue and Main Street. It will
contain greatly increased facilities for the
boys' physical education and athletics depart-
ment.
A building is being constructed as an ad-
dition to the north side of the present gymna-
sium which will provide improved facilities
for our music, vocational agriculture and in-
dustrial arts departments.
The old gymnasium will also get a face
lifting and will be converted into a girls' physi-
cal education building.
3
In taking an imaginary trip through
the new gymnasium, we must first
purchase tickets at the outside ticket
booth at the main entrance located
on Main Street. Entering the door, we
come into a spacious lobby containing
a large concession stand.
Inside the gymnasium proper our
attention is attracted by the 75 by 110
foot floor surrounded by a bowl-
shaped bleacher area with a seating
capacity of approximately 3,635. Look-
ing around, we see a section set aside
to accommodate a 75 piece band, and
in the corners we find another conces-
sion stand, a storage room, and two
modern rest rooms.
Moving down now onto the floor
and through a corridor we discover a
laundry room, two locker rooms
equipped with showers, a physical ed-
ucation classroom, a coach's office,
and an officials' room.
4
WE BUILD A GYMNASIUM.
Walking past the front of the old gym, we
come to the door leading into the top level
of the new educational building. Entering the
door, we find ourselves in the elevated choral
practice room. Going through another door-
way we find a band room which is also
elevated. Adjoining this room are a director's
office, five practice rooms, and a few rooms for
instrument and uniform storage.
Leaving by the same door we used to
enter, we go down the nearby stairway and
into the new Agriculture and Industrial Arts
Departments. The Industrial Arts Department
is made up of metal-working, woodworking,
and electric shops and a drafting room. The
Agriculture Department consists of a labora-
tory, classroom, shop, and instructor's office.

Some of us occasionally used the noon hour as an extra
study period.
Fall provided many activities.
The business managers are checking the progress graph
of annual sales.
The entire fall season was a very busy
one at E.T.H.S. The clubs were soon or-
ganized with three clubs having initiations
of their new members. The highlights of
the season were the football games and
the Homecoming events which included
the Senior Class Play, Homecoming Queen
Coronation, parade, and football game.
Don Gwaltney looks deter-
mined Io take his man out of

Besides having to wear ridiculous costumes, the initiates were
required Jo do some difficult stunts and to beg for money.

Decorating floats can
be fun, loo.
Homecoming was a
success in every way.
Homecoming! October 12 was a
clear and beautiful day. The police
department allowed us to close a por-
tion of Washington Avenue for the
purpose of decorating floats. As early
as seven-thirty, a few ambitious club
members could be seen hurrying about
working on their respective floats and,
by nine o'clock, the decorating pro-
gram was in full swing. Everyone was
working feverishly to finish before the
one o'clock deadline. The parade star-
ted on time with the twirlers, letter
girls, and band leading. The parade
wound through the Eldorado streets
and halted in the middle of town
where a rousing pep meeting was giv-
en before one of the largest crowds
to ever turn out for a Homecoming Par-
ade. The prizes for floats were: Fresh-
man Class, first; F.F.A second; and
French Club and Sophomore Class
third. After the Homecoming game
with Carmi, the Freshman Class spon-
sored a dance.
Top. Lester "Doc" Feuquay scores against Carmi.
Bottom: The Freshman Committee completes its

The parade stopped in the middle of town where the cheer-
leaders led us in a pep meeting.

The football team and cheerleaders were, of course, right at
the front of the parade.
The freshmen produced this unique float which won
the first prize in the float division.
The Camera Club won the first prize in the car
division with this "snappy" idea.

Another fail, another Homecoming, another Queen
On October 11, after the Senior Play, Miss Mary Jo Davis was
crovzned Homecoming Queen by football Captain Wilbur Mosby in
an impressive ceremony directed by Mrs. Wood and Mrs. Camp. The
Royal Court and soloist Jon Montgomery were accompanied by pi-
anist Miss Linda Tison. The ceremony was narrated by Mrs. Wood in
her inimitable way.

Lightweight* team loses only one game.
The Eldorado Eagles football team
coached by Al Adams, assisted by
Coaches Charles Leonard and Jim Red-
den, completed another successful sea-
son with eight thrilling victories against
only one defeat. Coach Adams con-
siders this small but mighty team as
one of the best he has produced in
his ten years at Eldorado.
The "Mighty Mites", averaging only
150 pounds, set a new modern scoring
record of 270 points for the season
against the opponent's 84 points.
Lester Feuquay, co-captain elect for
1957, also set a school scoring record
of 125 points for nine games, topping
all others in Southern Illinois.
This team was led by co-captains,
Marty Feuquay and Wilbur Mosby,
who were outstanding performers
throughout the season.
Eldorado will miss twelve fine gra-
duating lettermen, but should be well
represented on the gridiron next sea-
son with several fine returning play-
ers.
The graduating letter winners are:
Marty Feuquay, Wilbur Mosby, Rich-
ard Overton, Gordon Monroe, Jack
Mitchell, Don Gwaltney, Don Kingery,
Gary Phelps, Allen Corbin, John Wet-
taw, Ora Paul Hausser, and Benny

Our football
banquet was
very well at-
tended
The fans relax
as the teams
warm up.
Dancing provided a favorite noon hour pastime this year.
Winter took us indoors.
Winter began as the football banquet brought the football season to
a close and the basketball season officially opened. The cold weather drove
us into the gymnasium during the noon hour, and later, some of us spent
the lunch hour dancing in the auditorium.
Christmas was an especially busy season. We had several programs
in the auditorium, and the Dramatics Club presented a Christmas play.
Another highlight of the season was the Junior Play which was fol-
lowed by the coronation of our basketball queen.

Her Majesty the
Queen, Miss
Faye Cheek.
Another Be ^ketball Queen is crowned.
After the presentation of the Junior Play,
Miss Faye Cheek was crowned Basketball
Queen by His Majesty, Basketball Captain
Don Kingery. The Queen was chosen by pop-
ular vote of the entire student body from the
five candidates nominated by the varsity bas-
ketball team.
The crownbearer was Miss Beth Ann Tier-
ney, daughter of Mr and Mrs. Bob Tierney.
The trainbearer was Master David Berry, son
of Mr and Mrs. O L Berry. The soloists to
Her Majesty were Mr David Reeves and Mr

Eagles win conference championship.
The Eldorado Eagles basketball
team closed out their unusual season
by winning the first Southern Illinois
Conference Championship. Captain
Don Kingery was selected on the first
All-Conference Five, and Richard Ov-
erton and Leonard Willis were chosen
on the second five. The season record
shows ten victories against sixteen de-
feats. Five of the losses were to one
team, the Carrier Mills Wildcats. It
could very well be said that one team
prevented the Eagles from having a
successful season. Coach Adams was
not too disappointed with this year's
record since none of the squad were
returning letter winners. Richard Over-
ton won the free throw shooting cham-
pionship and will have his name in-
scribed on the trophy.

Eagles track squad continues to win.
The 1956 track squad led by Coaches Adams,
Leonard, and Haile continued their winning ways
by defeating Carmi twice and Harrisburg and
West Frankfort once. Eldorado can boast of losing
only two dual meets in nine years of competition.
Our team finished among the top three in most
of the major track and field events in Southern
Illinois meets. They participated in the Mineral
Area Meet at Hurst-Busch, the West Frankfort and
Herrin relays, an invitational meet at Cairo, and
the district meet at S.I.U.
Eldorado had several outstanding boys as well
as a balanced team. Benny Dempsey, a junior,
proved to be our best point winner as he per-
formed well in several different events. Leonard
Willis, a sophomore, was the best miler in Sou-
thern Illinois winning first in the district meet and
thus earning the right to go to the state meet.
32
The first warm days brought us out to
enjoy the sunshine again.
The beginning of track practice tells
us spring is here.
Fair weather sped up progress on
our new buildings.
Spring brought us outdoors again
At the first signs of spring, we left
our favorite haunts in the library, gym-
nasium, and auditorium and went out-
side to enjoy the warm weather again.
Soon track practice began, and short-
ly afterward the basketball banquet
completed the basketball season. The
highlight of the spring season was, of
course, the funior-Senior Prom, but this
year we also had an added attraction,
a week-long Easter vacation!
33
We were welcomed at the door by the Prom Committee and
Sponsors.
Our prom and entertainment lasted until early morning.
The 1956 Junior-Senior Prom was held in
the cafeteria on May 5. Although the prom
committee had been working for weeks, the
actual decorating could not be started until
Friday afternoon. Working all Friday after-
noon and most of the day Saturday, the com-
mittee finally completed the beautiful decora-
tions carrying out the theme "Fantasy in Spun
Sugar."
After the banquet, we were entertained
in the auditorium. Next came the dance at
which the "Belle of the Ball" was chosen by
the Louis Dale Orchestra. Then the Rotary
Club treated us to a movie and an early
breakfast after which we went home with the
memory of a wonderful evening.
These girls were the
confections of our prom.

The 1957 Golden E is the largest year-
book in the history oi our school. The
Senior Class Play and two talent shows
sponsored by our staff helped us finance
our book. We regret that the winter wea-
ther slowed down construction on our new
buildings and limited our picture story of
their progress. Although we faced many
problems in planning pictures and copy,
and in meeting deadlines, it was fun. We
hope that our efforts will provide a trea-
sure of memories for many years to come.

The Student Council began the year
with each class having an extra repre-
sentative. It met regularly under the gui-
dance of two new sponsors, Mrs. McNeill
and Mr. Knoop. This made it possible for
the Council to spend more time consider-
ing the problems ol the school and the
methods ol solving them.
Among the many activities sponsored
by the Council were the Homecoming
Parade, a dance following the Cairo foot-
ball game, and many interesting assembly
programs. The Council also sponsored
programs which raised $125 lor CARE and
$400 for the March of Dimes.
The Ford Circus was one of
the entertainment programs
wo sponsored.

National Honor Society
Our Honor Society is affiliated with
the National Honor Society of Secon-
dary Schools. Membership requires a
student to maintain a 4.5 grade aver-
age and to have the qualities of scho-
larship, service, leadership, and char-
acter.
In February the Honor Society pre-
sented a play "If Girls ask Boys for
Dates" before the student body. The
play was very successful and it pro-
vided a means of finance for the so-
ciety.
A banquet was held at the close of
the year to install the new members.
The officers for the year 1956-57 were
Jon Montgomery, President; Lester Feu-
quay, Vice-President; Mary Jo Davis,
Secretary; Rita Waller, Treasurer; and

classes, is an active and well-estab-
lished organization. It's purpose is to
foster interest in the study of the lan-
guage and culture of France through
educational programs and social con-
tacts.
During the current year, the club
sponsored a prize-winning float in the
Homecoming Parade, presented two
needy children with complete outfits
of clothing at Christmas time, and
entered several students in the Na-
tional French Examination, placing
seventh in the State of Illinois.
The club was honored with a visit
by Monsieur ]ean Paul Counoy of
Paris and Monsieur Jacques Mazion
of Marseilles. The former is connected

The F.F.A. banner is meaningful in every detail. The em-
blem is made up of five symbols: the owl, the plow and
the rising sun within the cross section of an ear of corn
all surmounted by the American Eagle. The words
“Future Farmers of America’’ give assurance that Amer-
ica will be well fed by professionally trained farmers.
Proper F.F.A. paraphernalia exhibited here at a regular F.F.A.
meeting is a must with well organized F.F.A. Chapters. Here
David Coontz, President, is presiding over the meeting, assist-
ed by Bob Bramlel, Vice-President; David Etienne, Secretary;
Joe Unthank, Treasurer; Paul Hines, Reporter; Lindell Prather,
Sentinel; and Mr. H. C. Bishop, Advisor.
This year the Eldorado F.F.A. has topped its all-time record of
achievements by being selected among the top seven F.F.A.
Chapters in the State of Illinois during the 1956 F.F.A. Con-
vention. Shown are the F.F.A. officers receiving this coveted
award.
The Eldorado F.F.A. motto is:
"Learning to do,
Doing to learn,
Earning to live,
Living to serve.”
Jerry Davis exemplifies the motto
here in this picture by being given
instructions on the proper handling of
this newly purchased steamer by his
instructor Mr. H. C. Bishop.
Adult Agricultural
Education.
During the year the Agricultural Advisory Council was
very helpful in making decisions to help the Board of
Education plan the new farm shop. Here a committee
is selecting small tools with the assistance of the school
principal, Mr. W. A. Knoop.
The Eldorado Agriculture Department is cooperating with the
Federal Government in the Korean Veterans' Educational Pro-
gram. Shown is Mr. H. C. Bishop making a visit to the dairy
farm of Mr. Wilfred Sutton to assist Jarrell Sutton with his
feeding efficiency program. Each cow is fed according to her
daily production of milk.
Mr. Ray Cook, Mr. Lee Roy Smith, and Mr. H. C. Bishop,
members of the Agricultural Advisory Council, look over the
possibility of removing a post centered in the woodworking
area of the new farm shop. This post would hinder the use
of approximately 600 square feet of floor space.
This year's Adult Agricultural Edu-
cation consisted of five courses: soil
improvement, beef production, tractor
maintenance, elementary welding, and
advanced construction welding. Shown
in this picture is an air compressor
made in the advanced construction
welding class by Mr. Phillip Anderson.
Mr. Finnis Williams is the class in-
structor.

The National Thespian Society, or-
ganized for the first time in the history
of our school, is an educational honor
and service organization of students.
It was established for the advance-
ment of dramatic arts in the secondary
schools. The aims of the society are
two-fold: (1) to establish and advance
standards of excellence in all phases
of dramatic arts, and (2) to create an
active and intelligent interest in dra-
matic arts among boys and girls in
the high schools.

ploy, "The Tree."

We were shown the proper way to wrap packages.
The Future Homemakers of America
is a national organization. Membership
in a FHA chapter is limited to those
who are taking home economics.
Each year, during National FHA
Week, the Eldorado chapter presents
red carnations to all the faculty mem-
bers.
In October some of the officers at-
tended a sectional rally at Mt. Vernon.
At the home football games, several
girls sold hot dogs and coffee. At
Christmas the chapter selected a needy
family and presented them with a
large basket of food and several other
gifts.
We prepared this clever
float for the Homecoming
Parade.

Choral Group Enrollment Increases
The Glee Club directed by Mr. Vo-
gelpohl, had a considerably increased
enrollment this year. As a result the
chorus was divided into two rehearsal
groups. The best performance of the
chorus was the presentation of the
annual Christmas concert, which was
highlighted this year by the renowned
''Hallelujah Chorus."
The madrigals were reorganized
this year and were a very active group
in civic entertainment programs. They
performed for the Woman's Club on
several occasions and were invited to
sing at a Saline County teacher's meet-
ing among other things. In March the
madrigals attended the district music
contest at Carbondale.
Also organized from the Glee Club
this year was the ‘freshmen octette.
They sang at the school on various
occasions and also appeared on some
civic and church organizations' pro-
grams.

games.
The letter girls were a very active part of our marching band.
Increased Interest Shown in Band
Under the direction of Mr. Vogel-
pohl, the marching band, including the
letter girls and twirlers, performed at
all the home varsity football games.
The band also furnished music at the
home basketball games with the twirl-
ers performing at half-time of both
the sophomore and the varsity games.
In October, the marching band led
our Homecoming parade and took part
with about forty other bands in Sou-
thern Illinois University's Homecoming
parade.
Later in the school year several en-
sembles were entered in music con-
tests, and, in May, the band took part
in the music festival which featured
the massed bands at Southern Illinois
University.
Due to the shortage of uniforms and
the large enrollment, the whole band
was not able to participate at the
same time in the special activities.

Building program brings added responsibilities to the Board
of Education
The Board of Education is composed
of seven members who serve three-
year terms. At least two of the mem-
bers must be elected from the rural
area in order to distribute the repre-
sentation. They meet with the princi-
pal at least once a month to determine
the policies of our school. During such
a time as this year with the added
responsibility of the building program,
they have to call special meetings. To
them, we express our appreciation lor
their time and efforts spent without
pay to bring us a good school.

We Complete Our Four Years of Building
Looking back on the past four years
at E.T.H.S. we, as Seniors, found that
we had been conducting a building
program within ourselves. We were
building up our knowledge and exper-
ience to guide us in our future lives.
Our Freshman year we laid the
foundation upon which to build the
rest of our high school career. In that
year we were introduced to the poli-
cies of high school and became ac-
quainted with the fundamentals of its
procedures. Through joining the vari-
ous organizations we were literally
"initiated" into the school.
As Sophomores we added to our
foundation of learning the framework
of experience and knowledge of what
was expected of us. We contributed
our share in athletics, scholarships,
music, and activities and became an
important part of the school.
Entering our Junior year we had at
last reached the all-important phase of
adding the structure to our framework
of experience. As upperclassmen we
no longer felt inferior in either mind
or importance. We displayed our new-
ly acquired standing by presenting a
very successful class play, "A Lucky
Penny," and by delighting everyone
with a prom which was truly a mas-
terpiece dreamily entitled "Fantasy in
Spun Sugar."
The honor of being Seniors! We had
finally reached the last step in build-
ing our high school education. The
finishing touches were applied to our
nearly complete structure making it a
finished product. As graduation drew
near, we realized that in the history
of the school we would become as
blueprints stored away after the build-
ing is completed. 65
