They took part in the traditional Student Body play, planned the banquet for the Seniors at the end of the year and to top it off, they made good showings at the declamatory and speech meets.

A well-selected cast portrayed the adventure in tho lives of the Fuller family who lived in an apartment house in a crowded district of Chicago. Patsy Fuller, baby of the family, constantly planned ways and moans of helping Otto Kirschmeior the poor owner of a pet shop below the Fuller apartment. Her father was lovable b. ent •endec’, character whose fertile imagination kept him busy on many new inventions. Marion’s chief difficulties in life were caused by her apparently unrequired love for her wealthy employer, Jin Griggs. Laura Montgomery, a soft spoken southern girl, was the object of Marion’s dislike. Abbie Fuller mothered the group and was concerned mainly if they sufficiently abided by tho standards of health. Bobby Fuller was an indolent high school boy, who could bo aroused to action only by the mention of a car or garage. His constant companion-(whether he liked it or not) was Spanky Minuti, the daughter of a questionable character who operated a gambling racket in the city. THE CAST Patsy Fuller . .

Each position on the staff was filled by members of the Journalism class. Tho staff began the year with sevoral changes in the make-up and appearance of the paper. One column was added to tho width of tho papor, thus making it easier for symmetrical arrangement of otorios and headlines on the pagos. Shortly after the second semester had started the staff began publishing a mimeographed paper every week, with the exception of every third weok when tho regular printed issue was edited. The purpose of this change was to give the staff members some experience in mimeographing before work began on tho annual• In April the printed edition of tho Periscope was discontinued entirely due to the low fundo of tho student body treasury.

Advisor Thomas E. Morris o o ANNUAL Editing of the Periscope annual was accomplished by various members of the advanced Journalism class, mostly Seniors, and other members of the Senior class in addition to the Journalism students. The Periscope annual staff worked under great difficulties this year, partly because of the lack of sufficient student body funds. The annual staff also made a few changes this -year, greatest and most important among them was the selling of subscriptions for the annual before it was edited, thus placing the staff in a posi-—yion to know how much money they had to work with. The outside measurement of the annual was cut some to make it more convenient, although a number of pages were added. A new type of binding was also introduced. An amateur show, was sponsored by the staff for the three Dallas city school students to participate in. The profit made from this program flowed into the Senior class treasury for the editing of the annual.

TYPING G SHORTHAND Dallas typing teams had a very successful season this year when at the county concest they placed first and at the state contest they took third honors. In the typing contest, held In Monmouth on April 14, 1959, the contestants made an excellent showing by defeating all other entrants. In the amateur group were Doris Hay, Ruth Buhler, Viola Schneider, and Leona Kansen. Only t o of the county entrants were allowed to enter in the state contest; therefore the two who had the highest rates were selected to participate in the state meet. The novice group was represented by Constance Rutledge, Martha Jean Plummer, Ruby Peters, and Ty Brown. As in the amateur group_, only two students were allowed to enter in the state contest. At tho state contest at Corvallis on April 22, the Dallas entrants placed third.

Held at the same tine as the state typing tournament was the 3tate shorthand contest i in which Dallas failed to win any major place. Esther Neufeld, Doris Hay, Rheuth Dashiell, and Leona Kansen entered. They were under the coaching of Miss Veroka Wampler. Ho county shorthand contest is held because no other school in the county teaches two years of shorthand. Members for the team were the four girls having the lowest score at the time of the contest. Scores were determined on the basis of one point an error. The six highest of the class practiced eighth period to decide who would be on the team. OPERETTA One of the outstanding activities of the I'us-ical department this year was the operetta Tune in, a comedy, which was presented in the high school auditorium April 14. Kasper Kroggins, czar of the cod-fish industry, was the sponsor ; of a radio program over station WTNT. His wife was very determined to sing but really could not sing at all. She was to appear as a mysterious Hitzi on his program but Jerry Kennedy, Dynamo Dave and Sinks, the announcer, intentionally stalled the elevator which Krs. Kroggins was in. The telephone operator who's name was Hitzi took her place and sang on the program Hrs. Kroggins rushed into the studio just as the program was finished and to pacify her she sang into a dead mike. She learned the truth through a telephone call. As a resutl she has Jerry fired, Kroggins won't sign the contract, jean' is angry with Joe for humiliating her mother, Phipps demands payment for his station, Hitzi quits her job and is angry with Jerry for involving her in such a thing. During the Kroggins's new years masquerade Phipps offers Joe a title to WTNT'in exchange for the contract of Hitzi who he is sure is Mrs. Kroggins, the deal is completed. He tears up the contract when he hoars her sing and offers the real Hitzi the part. She accepts. Throckmorton brings the good nows to Joe that he. has inherited 3ome money so he is able to pay for the radio station and firs. Kroggins returns to be just a house wife. Two proformanccs were given, a matinee for the students on April 13 and the evening prefor-manco on April 14. The audience enjoyed the preformances to the fullest extent.

Of the victories, one was outside of the W. V. I. League. A resume of the season follows: The season officiall- opened with the league jamboree at Salem. Dallas drew Woodburn for its quarter and were dropped, 7-0. Silverton 14 - Dallas 0 The Dragons wore downed in the opening game with Silverton by a 14-0 score. The defeat was mainly due to lack of experience. Amity 0 - Dallas 0 It was a different stor ' the next week when West Linn turned the tables and made it 32-0 over Dallas. Passos netted the yardage for the Dragons. Mollala 13 - Dallas 12 The hcartbreaker of the season was with Mollala. Trailing 13-12, Dallas pushed over a last minute score which was called back by a penalty. Chomawa 0 - Dallas 7 The only league win came at the expense of the Chemawa Indians. Dallas nushed a touchdown over early, and managed to protect its lead. Woodburn 32 - Dallas 0 The league champions, Woodburn,gav it to the Dragons, 32-0. The powerful running and passing attack of the champs was too much for the Dragons. Independence 0 - Dallas 0 Dallas-Independence rivalry was not settled in 38 since the game went to a 0-0 tie. This was probably the most even of all the games in 1938. Lebanon £7 - Dallas 13 Lebanon provided the most exciting game of the season. Dallas scored early on an intercepted pass, but Lebanon came back soon to win, 27-13.

Keen interest is shown in this activity as can be understood by the many girls who try out; At the beginning of the year 72 girls turned out, while last year's team numbered 24 girls. Among the many marching formations performed by the girls were: clock formation, counter marching, figure marching such as crosses, pyramids, and wheels, flank marching and the formation of various letters. o o GIRLS' KICK BALL Hickcall .s t.io nrsc arojecc cl sees, which be; an on ’Ao ; - b and D )c ■' ; _.

The Class of 1939 DRESS UP DAY We awoke early on the morning of the 12th day of May in 1930, but found that the sun and robins had been up and doing for sometime, for this day of days, something was astir in the air. It was Senior Dress up Day. Strangely dressed figures started entering the famed halls of Dallas high. As they entered a receiving line of freshmen, sophomores, juniors, and teachers were awaiting the arrival of these strange personages. Among them were these Dallas seniors of the class of 1939. An elderly gray haired grandmother, Helena Wall, with a five year old grandaughter, the grandmother seemed to have quite a time in the typing room, as she had forgotten how to type after so many years. Then among us that day were many younger children. Verna Caroline with her girlish -v , Little orphan Tillie, '' Matilda Friesen, carried her dolly with her every placu she went with big bows in her hair and an all day sucker. Also Evelyn Swenson, liable Lute and Esther Gossen w ht back to their childish ways. Esther had a terrible time trying to keep her dolly from crying. Eldon Klicver and his two mountaineer sisters, Leona Buckingham and Betty Denton, came in to spend the day in the city. The two sisters apparently didn’t have many clothes to wear as their clothing was ragged and they wore no shoes. Eldon, smoking a corncob pipe with a fishing pole over his shoulder, and he was also barefooted. The girls spent most of the day gambling with Elogene Helgerson’s dice, Elogene had no use for the dice as she was dressed as a little fisherman. In her hip pocket she carried a can of worms which she scared many of the pupils with during the day. In our midst were the five Dionne Quintuplets dressed In Orange and blue dresses. Each carrying a dolly. Ruth Sampson as Cecille , Viola Sch-nieder, Emile , Esther N vfeid, Marie1', Edna DRESS UP DAY Neufeld, ’’Yvonne , and Doris May, Annette.” The only cowgirl from the wild and wooley west v as portrayed by Viola McRae--came without her horse. From the South Sea Islands came two very popular feminine; Misses who couldn’t '-e joy the grass skirts as well as they expected, because they scratched. Those two misses turned out to be two Dallas seniors, Lucile Fryer and Peggy Jos-lin. Then came several laborers David Hamm and Arnold Peters who was barefooted were typical farmer boys in patched overalls and ragged shirts. Several boys dressed as flappers; George Nicols, Ernest Reimer, Elvin Van Santen, Henry Friesen and Warren Hillery, decided to proclaim themselves to be sophisticated young ladies in skirts or girlish hats, dainty sandals, and silk hosiery. And lo, Rheuth Dashiell very strangely dressed in black, with the big red letters on her long dress D-E-A-T-H, representing death. Leota Connor came in gaily colored raiment and bedecked with many pieces of bright jewelry and a magic bowl, then called herself a gypsy fortune teller. Ruth Buhler came from Japan in her embroidered red komona Imogene Hillery came from Spain, dressed in gay colors. Service with a Smile was the motto used when Patricia Murray came dressed in Standard Oil Uniform. She passed out the Standard Oil Mickey Mouse Funnies to the students. Then with a bottle of medicine in one hand and a spoon in the other, Nurse Pauline Friesen and Nurse Katherine uiring doctored up the sick students with colored water. And then there were two clowns, Johnny Friesen and Ted Faver. and they were DRESS UP DAY There are always men of all trades. Norman Scott portrayed a sophisticated Englishman carrying a cane. Then there is Kenneth Woods, the best dressed man of the day, with his waxed derby hat, striped pajama top, red necktie, and nicker-bocker breeches. Even the Southern states were well represented by Alfred Thiesen a Nv £,ro. Fresh from the woods of Dallas walked in a logger by the name of Marion Wells, Henry Wall a blind man, who carried a tin cup in which he collected 6 ; Bill Rader, a boy scout; one of the Dallas .company L, Andy Kerp; and then to our amazement there came a weird looking creature, Alice the goon, Rod Dembowski; and lo, and behold there come uthe man of the day--a Bellhop, Eddy Dyck. And now we come to the poor old fellow who walks so much, the tramp, Lois Groesser, who carried a stick over her shoulder with a bundle on the end of the stick. Taere was Mary Jayne Kelly who dressed as a turk, dressed in brilliant gay colored rags. The gentleman of the day, LaVon Ford looked very sophisticated dressed in full dress suit, carrying a cane. Straight from West Point came Cadet Pat Finn with lipstick prints all over her face. Delora Blanchard, the drunkard --Wilma Thiesen with a ball and chain around her feet as a convict. Poor Elma Ray didn’t get up in time to dress for school so she came in her pajamas and, Oh yes, we still have the so-called dunce. Lwona Hansen brought her own stool and sat in the corner all day. So ends the day and we leave Senior-dress-up-day till next year. SENIOR FLUNK DAY The long-waited for day came at last on April 28, when the Seniors crowded into two buses in oreparation to spend Flunk Day at Nclscott and the surrounding beaches. The Seniors wore all very sleepy-eyed for the buses pulled out promptly at _ five-thirty. This was apoarcntl' too carl for Miss Philo, for sno was still in bod when the bus called Xor her. The day was spent in playing games, walking, boating, and swimming. Man'' of the students wrote their initials on the clay banks of Nolscott for the future generations. When dinner time came Elmo Savory could not be found anyplace, so most of the students piled into the other bus and went up to De-lake for dinner. There was a few left behind so they oiled into Mr. Leonard's car and tried to find them. When they were finally found the: had it way down in a corner by the lake. After much preparation the group enjoyed eating sandwich:s, salads, olives, potato chips, calces and lemonade. The great mystery of the day was when . Elvin got hi3 car stuck way back in the hills far off the beaten tracks. Soon after the crowd had gathered back at Nolscott it began to rain, just a light miserable mist. It was quite a debate whether to come back home and have the weincr roast in the park or stay there. It was finally decided to rent the Community Kitchen where everyone had a good meal of weincr, buns, and ice cream. The big tragedy of the day came when Matilda Frieson was hit by a 3of't-ball, breaking her glasses and cutting her face. About seven o'clock, the tired and wind burned but happ' '30 Flunkstors returned to Dallas. The chaperones were Hiss Julia Philp, class advisor. Miss Kathyrn howe, and Mr. Joe Leonard. PROPHECY One day while visiting a carnival, I cene to a fortune teller’s tent. Curious to see what had become oi all my classmates of 1939, I stopped in to ask him if I night look into the crystal and see what had become of those former classmates of mine. First, I saw Alvin Ealzer and Alfred Thies-sen on a ranch in Texas. They had bean riding their out on the range to inspect the herds but Alfred's horse had balked, and when I saw them A1 was sitting on the ground. lie is still a tenderfoot, but I an sure that he will improve when he has been on a ranch as long as Alvin has. The crystal cleared, and then I saw a store building in Dallas. I thought happily that perhaps all of the students hadn't deserted our old town as yet. It seems that the Friesen's that were in our' school decided to show the town how a real store should bo run. They had joined forces. Evelyn, Matilda, and Pauline ran the mifectionery oart of it, and Benny, Johnny, and Henry had charge of the grocery part. They all looked very happy and prosperous. Several customers came in while I was watching, and among them I recongized Verna Caroline; she is r Mrs. 9eorre Nicol, and was doing her early morning shopping. She had a little girl with her and since the resemblance was very strong I judged that it was her own. Ted Paver is now proprietor of the ''Dallas Lunch Cafe , and his wife, the farmer Flame Daniels, is a very attractive waitress. Norman - cott and Arnold wall are now running a. small popcorn stand in front of the Little Theater off Times Square. The gold-tongued orator of the Senate is our former classmate, John Schcirling. The crystal v as blurred, and Y felt as though we were going to another part of the dountry, -mire enough, we landed in Boise, -i-daho. There I saw Imogene xlillery and her brother Warren. They had taken over their father's fruit produce trucking industry ipon his retirement, and were making a prosperous business of it. PROPHECY Again the crystal blurred, and we seemed to be traveling at a great rate, VJe arrived (in vision) at a little town some place m the middle states. I couldn't be sure of the location. I saw two girls whom I thought I should know. They were Doris Hay and Viola McRae. Strange to say, I could hear what they were talking about. Both employed in an office in Des Moines, they talked as though they liked their job. Doris said that she liked it all right, but her boss didn't fall for her as hard as she had expected, so she didn't know whether she would stay there or not. Again, skioping around the country, and by vision as usual, we came to a dude ranch down in Arizona. I was surprised to find that LaVon Ford was the hash slingor there. She sang while doing the slinging and the boys seemed to enjoy hearing, this. They said that the hash wasn't so b;id, but ahe singing rondo it go down easier. I guess that Glen George's guardian angel had heard him say that he had always wanted to be a cowboy, because there he was in all the fancy regalia of a full-iledgjd cowboy. he certainly ought to be proud of our schoolmate who could make so good. The crystal bluned and it seemed that we wore going quite a ways this time. I recognized the statue of Liberty, and a few of the skyscrazors , so I was led to the conclusion that we e in Njw York. The first thing I saw was a building, sort of nestled down among- the bigger ones, and on it was a sign. I said Bring your babiesg and .‘leave them all day. iVe take 'care of them. 'J.wf.s surprised to see the names Lute', Kelly, ' hnd Swenson . Could it be that my old pals were in the day nursery business? It seems that they liked to take care of children so much during school that they had decided to come to a big city and make good. I decided to look into some offices as long as we were here in New York, and see if I couldn't find some more of my good friends. The first office was the headquarters of the Metropolitan Life PROPHECY Insurance Company. The President of this company is our friend, Marion Wells. He is a very dignified looking gentleman now, and is respected by all of his employees. His private secretary is quiet little Lucile Fryer. It has always been her dream to be a private secretary to such a distinguished gentleman and she hopes -but we won’t go into that. Another office I find is the popular ESCORT BUREAU of which Martha J an Kurre has charge. She likes her work .nd enjoys working with her boys’ . They are such a friendly lot and are jso polite. Th« crystal is taking me around so quickly that I had to catch my breath, but I managed to take in quite a lot about the country. Next, I found we had come visually to Hawaii. It seems odd to be able to see a country, and hear people talk, and know what it’s like and still not to be there. Here I found Andrew Korp as the mainstay of Schofield Barracks. His -rmy men under him enjoyed his fun, and said that they hadn’t had a better leader in years. Those who remember Andy, know how big a tease he was, but we can hope that the years have toned him down a little. Evelyn Ickes and Elvin Van Santen enjoyed debating together so much that they decided to join forces. They went to a preacher to see what he could do. They are Mr. and Mrs. now. Every time it comes time to feed little Vannie, they debate on what to feed him, and who shall do it. They say to debate their little troubles saves many a quarrel and has saved them from the divorce court. Edna and Esther Neufeld, and Viola Schneider are still together. They are living in Dallas, and have decided to never marry as that would break up their happy threesome. Esther has taken Miss Wampler’s place as shorthand teacher. Edna is the typing teacher, and Viola is Mr. Turner’s office girl. He liked her so well during her first year, that he established her permanently. Clifford Smith, the crystal showed, is a PROPHECY wrestling coach at the University of Oregon. lie has stayed there longer than any other wrestling coach because the boys say that his fine physique is a goal for them. When the college talked of putting another and a younger man in his place, the boys all went on a sit-down strike and refused to go to any classes, so Clifford stayed. Katherine Quiring followed up her desire to become a nurse by applying for a position as nurse to the Dionne Quintuplets which she received. After staying there for a long-time, she decided that they were too many for her, so she asked Dr. Dafoe if she couldn't be his office nurse. She has had this position for some time, and likes it very much. Two of our classmates stayed in Dallas also. Hr. and Mrs. Bill Rader, the former Leona Hansen. They are running the Rader Ranch for people who wish to grow healthy bodies. Bill takes charge of that part of it, and Leona helps to cultivate healthy minds, because they believe sincerely that the Greeks had the right idea I am surprised to find myself in the Metropolitan Opera House. Imagine ny further surprise to find our quiet little friend Rheuth Dashiell as the Prima Donna of the world. She looked very happy and contented with her lot. Ernest Reimer, due to thwarted love of Rheuth followed her to the Opera House and became the janitor. It seems that he never spoke of love, but is content to stay in the shadow, and watch his beloved win fame. Ronald Lovin is now a second Donald Budge. We could see him playing one of his greatest games, and of course he won. We are certainly proud of our students who have written their names in the hall of fame. Our crystal took us next to Oregon State. Joe Williams is football instructor, and is getting along just fine. He still tells the boys about his five-yerd dash when he won the game for old D.H.S. I'm glad to say Joe is a loyal fellow. Eldon Klievcr we find back in Dallas. He has PROPHECY charge of a large used car lot. He is the biggest used car dealer on the West Coast and mighty proud of his position. He is well liked and a big citizen of Dallas. We learned that he and Ruth Sampson decided to see if the'1’ could ’’make a go” of it. They found they were very happy together, and Ruth says she wouldn't trade Eldon for any other. Elma Ray has built up a career for herself in radio. She has an hours broadcast every night from 7:00 to 8:00 p.m, over WNT from Portland. She is content with her life, and loves to sing to the millions that listen in to her every night. She is the same beautiful girl that we all knew back in Dallas in 1939. Abe Scheirling liked Dallas so well, that he stayed here, and took P. G. courses until he has become a fixed monument to the little rooks that enter each year. They all think that it must be wonderful to like education so well, that they want to be a second Scheirling. Pats7’ Murray likes bunny rabbits, especially big pink cuddl;' ones. So she decided to build a factory near Dallas, and manufacture these little bunnies so every girl could have one. Her slogan, A bunny for every girl, a girl for every bunny. She has prospered and loves her work. Arnold Peters is Civics teacher in the high school now. He thought that Mr. Kutch was such a good Civics teacher that he wanted to be one too. He hurried and got his uducation. He ha3 just finished teaching his third year of Civics and do the pupils go for him! Mr. Kutch was tired of teaching anwa?, so he was glad to give up his position for a bettor one. Ho is now on the Oregon State Supreme Court, Clarence Peters is a minister, and a good one, too. He married Olga Schultz, and she has been a source of inspiration to him. He has written two books which arc great successes. Arnold Hiebcrt gradually worked himself up into the position of head salesman for Shrecve's PROPHECY Garage. He has made a success of his life, and says it is worth while to work from the bottom up One of our classmates who went to the top and worked down is Patsy Pima. She is a parachute jumper. It had been her aim for a long time, but the nearest she could get to it was to be a stewardess. Last year she got up courage enough to jump and has been jumping ever since. David Hamm takes Bruce Spalding's place as attorney. He was married just last year to Esther Goosen. They were loth too bashful to admit that they were in love since school, but finally David got up courage to ask her. They have the most beautiful home in Dallas, and sot the styles of men and women in the town. Lois Grocsser is a typing demonstrator for Eenkhe-Walker Business School. She loves this kind of work, and is a great favorite among students. John Yungen was always fond of driving a school bus, so he asked if he couldn’t sign a contract that would enable him to drive the bus for several years. It was rather out of the ordinary, but the School Board decided that since John was such a reliable young man, he should be allowed to do this. Kenneth Woods as everyone should know by this time is in California and a pilot of the China Clipper. Jle si.uu.ied many years to be able to do this, and finally reached his goal. He is the most reliable, pilot of the airways, and when people go to Hawaii or other places, they always ask that Kenny be the pilot. Gladys Wright capped the climax of her life by marrying an army of Ileer of Hawaii Schofield Barracks. It seems strange that we should have two of our alumni in Hawaii permanently, but rather nice. Gladys likes Hawaiian life very much, and from the last letter I got, she may come up for a visit. We shall have to arrange an Alumni Night for the 1959 class, and feature Gladys as the main speaker. I failed to mention when I saw Doris Hay that her errnloyer is Bruce erry. We cannot vUxi Sr- PROPHECY stand why he had not married, unless it is because he is so bashful. Perhaps he is afraid that Doris the efficient secretary, will make him rather henpecked when he marries her, but Doris has confessed that Bruce is her '’ideal and that she will remain 3ingle until he asks her to make him a happy home. Daryl Ross, Loron Edigcr and Edward Dyck have gone ino the shoo store business. They are located in Portland, and whenever any man wishes to obtain a p.hr of shoes that are up to the latest fo.shicn, lie goes to the Ross, Edigcr and Dyck'1 Shoe Store. Edward is quite a man now.

She more than likely will graduate into the state business soon, and we wish her much happiness. Leona Buckingham is a private detective. She says that she enjoyed snooping during schoox, so she made it her profession. She became quite famous during school for her sleuthing about her lost articles. Many students wore grateful to her, as many people are today. Dclora Blanchard is now wife of the present Governor of Oregon. She says she marrioa him for what he was and not what she thought he would be. But we are sure that he beautiful hair has made her more popular than if her hair had been blende. Roderick Dembowski is now a State Patrolmen. He enjoys his work, and when his friends express surprise, he says, Well, you can't always tell by PROPHECY looks, now can you? Betty Denton is in Hiami, Florida. She is modeling bathing suits. She loves her work, and says that she thinks it's fun to model suits, but she says the worst of it is that she doesn’t dare go in the water.

The trouble is, she hates to part with Wilma. Wilma though, tells her not to worry, that she has found her heart’s desire, and will also settle down when her trips are over. Helena Wall is the happy wife of Frank Farris. During school she was rather fond of him, but he didn’t rake up until about throe years ago when Helena stented working in his law office. Henry V all hated to leave school, so he took up Walt Bird’s duties, and let Walt retire. The pupils like to gather round during noon hour and listen to Henry’s stories, and always hate to go to class when the time comes to do so. Elogene Helgerson is a movie queen of the Hollywood stars. Her hair is platinum blonde, and if you remember her in the last picture, she was very striking. She is nor in a picture called Blown with the Breeze in which she plays Scat-torgood Harry’s sweetheart, Retta Suiter. Margaret Joslin has charge of the Civilian PRO PHECY Conservation Corps for girls. Her girls are the best in the West, and Margaret i3 still Peggy to thorn. The girls will not let her retire, and when she is old, theT say she must remain with them, and they will organize the older girls CCC. Margaret rather blushed when asked about her romances of 1S39. She said, Well, you can’t sit a-round all the time waiting for someone to a3k you to marry you. So I asked him. He refused, and here I am.

Of this nunber-75 are now upon the threshold of graduation. As they look back upon those first days of long ago a smile spreads over their faces when they think of those timid youths so eager and yet so afraid. The smiles fade, however, when they remember how fortunate they were to be entering Dallas High School instead of leaving it. This group was soon made to feel at home in their new school when the sophomores held a reception in thoir honor. An excellent time was had, as well as many new friends made. Election of class officers was the -t- important event for the class as a whole. -ildon Hliever was elected President; Arthur Hass, Vice-President; Bona Alderson. Secretary-Treasure; and Piss Viola Crozor as class adviser. Alien our sophomore year began, 94 strong, we did not feol quito as green11 and out of place as in the previous year. After our freshman year of fun and study, wo really began to find the place we wore to make for ourselves in dear old D. K. S. Again class officers were elected and they were as follows: Bob Dalton, President; Blogone Hclgorson, Vice-President; Alma Ray, Secretary-Treasurer; and Hiss ITadine Hillhollon, adviser. There wore many things happening in ’37. The sophomores were well represented in football, basketball, baseball, track, plays, debates, and all of the other enjoyable things presented. And they, still young and” eager, couldn't mi3S out on anything. For those having taken Biology whl® year stands out because of the Biology coast trip. Hr. Kutch says that most of his grey hairs - : -s acquired on that trip. CLASS HISTORY Tho class of f 37 would not soil this year of merriment for any amount. It can bo looked upon by all members as adding a great deal to their experience as v cll education. As timo rolled on each year became more important than the last one and the junior year was a busy one. At the beginning of the year there were 93 of us. Some had come and some had gone, but wo could still hold our own with the other classes. Names of members of our Junior Class wore evident in all activities such as basoball, football basketball, track, tennis, dramatics, plays, and debate. They sponsored student body dances, tho girls took part in the Commencement exercises, and they entertained the seniors at the annual reception by giving them a banquet, a program, and a dance. Our class was guided in this vital and important year by l!aiy Melon Doughton, President; Preston Dickey, Vice-President; Patricia Hurray, Secretary; LaVon Ford, Treasurer; Clifford Smith, Sorgcant-at-Arms; and Hr. Donald Gabbert, Class 4 Advisor. Strengthened by a large enrollment and many now students, they wore determined to be the best Senior Class of D. E. 3. had ever seen. The year started off enthusiastically and continued through out the nine months. Many changes took place in 38 and '39 that may have baffled many of our follow class mates, but they let nothing get us down, and continued on their merry way through our final year of high school. The first change v as that of the grading system. As soon as they found out that they would only have to take our sad report cards home twice a semester all was well and good until the O o 4— I CLASS HISTORY p. W. A. moved in on us to build a now wing on tho school. This put a cramp in their stylo, as the building was overly crowded, but eventually v o became reconciled to it and continued with smiling faces. Early in the year insignia was chosen and pins and rings soon flashed before tho eyes of the longing under-classmen. Officers who wore greatly responsible for the efficiency of the class were Elvin Van Santen, President; Slogene Kolgcrson, Vice-President; Viola Schnicdor, Secretary-Treasurer; Betty Denton Sorgoant-at-Arms; and Hiss Julia Philp, class advisor. A big project of the year was the annaul Christmas program which put every one in the holiday frame of mind. A play and musical number s entertained the Student Body. Dros3-up day was a thrill and a source of pleasure amusement not only to the Seniors, but to tho whole school. I.Iany strange sights wore seen that will linger in memories forever. Last, but by no moans least, came the Junior-Senior Banquet and Commencement, which ’were gala affairs and enjoyed by all. I.Iany a sad face was seen as the finishing touches were added to a very gay and thrilling four years in Dallas High School. The Senior class wishes the Juniors the best of luck In their la3t roar and hopes that the members v ill enjoy it as much as those of '39 have. SIBLEY ABSTRACT CO.
