Assistant Editor MARILYN SWANTON...................Business Manager Victor Carlson Mike Christensen....................Photographers Compliments of First State Bank jforetoorb We, the Seniors of Nineteen Hundred and Fifty-Three, present this volume with a great deal of pride. We feel that it is the finest annual ever produced at Greenville High School, and we sincerely hope that you will think so too. The year just passed has been filled with memorable events. Each season has brought with it its share of fun, excitement, and work. We think it has been a successful year because all have shared in the fun and excitement, and all have worked to make it a success. The time has come for us to fade from the picture. We must now step upon a new threshold of life; but to those of you who must stay behind, we wish to say thanks for all you have done to make our high school days happy ones. We wish also to say to each of you, Good luck in every way.” Come with us now in our last few hours together through the seasons as we relive the outstanding moments of fall, winter, and spring, Nineteen Fifty Two-Fifty Three. But before we start, let us leave this thought with you: Between conception and the grave, There is a time that mortals crave To keep forever, to have and hold. Ah, yes, how loathsome to grow old. Oh youth! Oh, gay and carefree youth How man does hate to face the truth. But though the body bends to cruel fate, The mind need not deteriorate; Though youthful limb must pass away Young and fresh the mind may stay. For mortal man will always be A cherisher of memories, And memories do very much To give the mind a youthful touch. We have scores of precious moments here To keep us young from year to year, Until the hour when we must Fulfill God's law, From dust to dust.” Roger Coats Two Compliments of Howard Hoffman Defalcation To Mrs. Edith Briggs, we, the Seniors of 1953, proudly and affectionately dedicate our Hi-Life. For the past 26 years you have proven to be the invaluable stepping stone for the careers of many Greenville High School students. Your guidance and thoughtfulness toward us will long be remembered in the years to come. To you we say a hearty THANK YOU for your never ending kindness, patience, and careful consideration to all our problems. Jflemortam ... Dick Walkington March 8, 1935 January 1, 1953 Complinunls oj Claude T. Tuck, Real Estate. Insurance, and Coal Three Co tfje (grabuatefi of 1953 Principal Howard B. Dalman To the Seniors: You have chosen for the theme of this yearbook the Seasons of the Year. I believe you have made an excellent choice. It gives me the opportunity to add one further thought to it. As you go out from the high school which has been so much of your life for the past four years, keep this in mind. The Creator in his wisdom has given us through the continuity of the Seasons' one of our greatest lessons in Faith. We know that spring will follow winter, that summer will follow spring, and that autumn and winter will fall in line. This is a great lesson for living for life is not all one season but each coming in its proper place. Howard B. Dalman Principal Mrs. Sybil Pietsker A quotation that intrigues the thoughts of a person as it has done so for me for many years, is presented for you to consider, to think about, as you do your daily tasks: Great occasions do not make heroes or cowards — they simply unveil them to the eyes of man—-silently and imperceptibly, as we work or sleep — we grow strong or weak — and at last some crises shows us what we have become. — Cannon Wescott. Your attention to doing the right thing, be it large or small, and your faith and trust in God, will steady your aim toward a goal of wise, serviceable living, and daily prepare you to meet each new demand. In behalf of your parents and teachers, I wish you good fortune. A. F. Allinder, Superintendent Mrs. Edna Obetts, Mrs. Gretchen Crawford Superintendent A. F.

S. band under the direction of Lloyd Conley. The band's marching section participated at football games and in many city functions. The complete group strived and achieved perfection at pep meetings, basketball games, concerts, graduation ceremonies, and festivals. Band officers were: President, Allen Finkhouse; Vice-President, Greg Weitzel; Secretary, Ann Cook; Treasurer, Wanda Anderson; and Carol Nelson, Council Representative. After a fine year's performance, we salute the band of G. H. S. Compliments of Band Booster Club Eleven Left to Right: June Kirkwood, Sandra Nielsen, Shirley Beardslee. Majorettes G. H.

Hi-Life When school opened in the fall, the Hi-Life staff organized their big and secret plans for the 1953 annual. Editor Elaine Swanson planned the yearbook layout, and Business Manager Marilyn Swanton contacted business men for ads. Picture schedules were arranged by Mike Christensen and Victor Carlsen. Copy was written by Assistant Editor Herman Zimmerman with the assistance of Roger Coats, Frances Hansen, and Mariel Walker. Their material was typed by Karen Allen, Beverly Rosebrook, and Sandy Nielsen. Homer Grosvenor supervised the sport pages. Marilyn also served as council representative. Everyone worked together in the fall, winter, and spring. Now that we have completed the hard work connected with publishing this Hi-Life, we can sit back and look over our book with a feeling of great pride and satisfaction. We wish to thank very much our very hard working advisor. Miss Yeomans. Compliments of The Daily News Thirteen First Rote. Left to Right: H. Larsen, E. Swanson, Angie Giglio, B. Allinder, B. Cook, R.

Student Council Our 1952-1953 student government was directed by the capable leadership of Mayor William Allinder with the co-operation of all council members. Their successful year recorded many accomplishments. Activities sponsored by the Student Council were the sale of activity tickets, a Fall Party, the All-School Play, the beautiful Christmas Party, and the Honor Banquet. One person who deserves a great deal of credit and praise for her hard work is the social chairman, Elaine Swanson. Other council officers are Chief of Police, William Cook; Secretary, Angie Giglio; and Treasurer, Roger Coats. Supporting these officers are the class and organization representatives and class officers, who composed a fine and celebrated Student Council. Fourteen Compliments of Larry Brown Compliments of Nielson Jewelry Fifteen Police Board Do you plead guilty or not guilty? questions Chief of Police William Cook to violators before the student government court. The purpose of the Police Board is to try by jury any person who has been arrested by the session alderman for disobeying rules. Mayor Bill Allinder, who serves as Custodian of Prisoners, and Chief of Police Bill Cook select representatives from each class to act as permanent members of the jury. The court secretary is selected in the same manner. The senior representatives are: Victor Carlsen, and Dixie DeBree, who also is court secretary; Juniors, Jim Powell and Sharon Bidstrup; Sophomores, Pat Harding and Larry Carbonelli; Freshman, Tom Sydow. Principal Howard Dalman is always present to aid and give helpful advice. Standing: L. Carbonelli, S. Bidstrup, P. Harding, V. Carlsen, J. Powell, T. Sydow, Mr. Dalman. Seated: B. Allinder, B.

Class of 195 6 Fall is an exciting season for the Freshmen who begin their high school career. They quickly caught the spirit of school life and activities. One of their first projects was a Valentine Dance after a basketball game. The dance, which was a great success, was organized by their class president, Tom Smith; Vice-President, Nora Ellen Van Hoose; Secretary, June Kirkwood; and Treasurer, Linda O'Connor. Their classmates served on the committees. Because the class of ’56 has participated in many activities such as basketball, cheerleading, band, Forensics, and choir, we believe that they will be very active in their last three years at Greenville High School.

All School Play Room For One More by Anna Rose The spotlight during the fall also fell on the talented cast of the All School Play. Their delightful portrayal of this interesting story captured everyone’s attention. No matter how hard it was to make ends meet. Poppy and Mother Rose could never say no to a homeless child; and in the Pumpkin Shell, their tiny summer cottage by the ocean, it was often hard to tell their own children, Trot and Teensie, from the strangers they took under their wing. There was Joey, who wanted to become a doctor more than anything else; Jimmy John, the tough little boy who wears braces; and Janey, who finally learns to belong. Mother - - - Norma Kienke Poppy ....

Courtmen closed the season in a Hash of glory by winning the Class B District tournament. Enthusiasm and hard work turned the season into something much greater than the Greenvillites were predicting last November. Although the Yellow Jackets finished third in the Conference, they were leading contenders for the crown as they entered the final games. Forward Bill Allinder took the Conference scoring honors with a total of 148 points in eight Conference games. Bill C x k and Bill Allinder made the All-Conference team with Dan Metzger, Jim Stout, and Larry Bauman receiving honorable mention.

G” Club G stands for girls interested in sports. During the winter they participated in bowling, ping-pong, dancing, basketball, and tumbling. In the spring they all played softball. At the same time they were taking part in these strenuous activities, they had enough energy remaining to sponsor a dance and weekly candy sales. Their officers were Arna Tenney, President; Arlene Giglio, Vice-President; Sharon Bidstrup, Treasurer; Joanne Smith, Secretary; Claudette Mardle, Publicity Chairman; Sandy Nielsen, Point Chairman; and Eleanor Snyder, Student Council Representative. They were assisted by their advisor. Miss Buckholtz, who teaches girls' physical education. Senior members who won their fourth-year award were sent on a trip by the club in the spring. Twenty-Four Compliments of Alma's Ready-To-Wear Shop Varsity Club The varsity club is a prominent and active group in our school. Its officers are: President, Homer Grosvenor; Vice-President, Dan Metzger; Secretary, Jim Powell; Treasurer, Allen Finkhouse; and Student Council representative, Bruce Schrader. Hot dog sales at the football games and dances were projects sponsored by the varsity club. The group also furnished workers for tournaments and supervised printing of tournament programs with pictures. Varsity seniors went on their annual trip with Coach Richard Smith, their advisor.

Senior The Senior Play this year marked the beginning of a new era in dramatic production at Greenville High School. The shift was made from light boy-meets-girl comedy to a more serious and adult type of play. The title of this drama was Night of January 16th, by Ayn Rand. The entire performance took place in the courtroom of Superior Court Number Eleven, State of New York. The defendant, Karen Andre, was on trial for the murder of her boss, Bjorn Faulkner, a business tycoon. Play The interesting thing about this play is that the jury was picked from the audience. They sat in the jury box throughout the performance and then went off stage, decided on the verdict, and gave this verdict to the court. No one, not even the play cast, knew what that verdict would be. Consequently, they had to learn two endings to the play, one for not guilty, and one for guilty. The play ran two nights and was a huge success each time. Everyone in the cast did an excellent job under the guidance of Mrs. Dunkleburger and her able student assistant, Barbara Peterson.

Other active Sophomores were members of the basketball team, in the all-school play, Forensic speakers, council members, and participants in high school clubs.

S. trackmen could be seen taking their nightly running tour around Baldwin Lake. For many, it proved valuable when the competition began. The Yellow Jackets finished 14 points behind Hastings to take second place in the Conference track meet. Nine Greenville men placed in the cold, rain-drenched meet with Bill Cook taking the only blue ribbon in the high hurdles with 15.8 seconds as his time. Cook later placed second in the Regionals which led to the State Finals at East Lansing. Forty-1 wo Compliments of Kemp Insurance Sure First Row, Left to Rixht: L. McConnell, B. Schrader, D.

It seems that some of the class of 195} have done just that. This is the way it looked to me as I took my trip to the moon. Class Prophecy Now at the top of the list instead of the bottom is Herman Zimmerman who has developed a new experimental rocket ship with his able assistant, Lewis Rasmussen, and Mike Christensen as project supervisor. Our super salesman, Ron Vanderlip, has finally persuaded Mariel Walker, Larry Denevan, and Sally Heaton to buy their tickets for the trip to the moon with the pilot, Stan Enrich, and co-pilot, Roger Hoffman. Ivan Myers, our architectural designer, hopes his catapult will withstand the stress of the rocket. Whew, what a take off! Now, while were on flight, our hostesses, Millison Brace and Bev Cudmore, are serving us a complete chicken dinner in capsule form. The chicken was especially raised by Don Sorensen and prepared by our cook. Fern Fisher. The first night out, we stopped at one of Bill Cook's famous space hotels, designed and built by the Allinder Engineering corporation, with Bill the owner and Les McConnell, manager. As we arrived, Phillip Roberts was there to welcome us and park the ship. As we entered the hotel, the doorman. Bob Hurrell, directed us to the desk where we registered with the clerk, Kay Brown. Their alert and energetic bell hop, Jerry Modene, took us to our room where the chamber maid, Betty Denevan, had just finished dusting. Being hungry after the trip, we departed to the dining room where the floor show was just beginning with Paula Craig, Claudette Markle, Phyllis Riker, and Saralee Bernth giving their rendition of The Sheik.” Suddenly off stage, someone yelled Live it up!” Yep, it was that rollicking comedian Don Cooper ably assisted by Joetta Sherrick. Then we were served the most delicious meal by waitresses, Jeanette Dennis and Alice Davis. After tasting the scrumptious, marshmellow-moonbeam milkshake, we knew it was whipped up by Arna Tenney. The next morning we were up bright and early. As Bob Dunn was refueling the rocket, the manager. Dale Sanders, bid us Bon Voyage. As we left, our Seventy Compliments of Greenville Lumber radio engineer, Homer Grosvenor, was kept busy contacting the earth and moon with his secretary, Frances Hansen, who kept accurate records of all progress. As we approach the moon, there is a welcoming party assembling at the landing field. Yes, there's the band with Shirley Beardslee and Sandy Nielsen stepping out in front and there’s Petey Snyder still playing her drum. Being my first visit to the moon, 1 hired Larry Messacar, who’s been here some time, to guide me. The first place he showed me was Dick Oberlin's school of dancing where his partners Helen Nadeau and Dixie DeBree were teaching the Charleston. Next we visited Rex Nielsen's luxurious theatre where stars Roger Coats and Doneen McGahan were appearing in a recent movie directed by Barb Peterson. The new hospital, where Angie Giglio is supervising nurse and Elaine Swanson and Shirley Hartman are assistants, was a beautiful building where there were murals on the walls that had been painted by Harold Larsen and Roberta Humphrey. Another spot where I met many of my fellow classmates of 53 was the bank where John Johansen lias risen to fortune and fame. How could he help but be successful with his staff consisting of Arlene Giglio, head accountant, Betty Andersen, private secretary, Shirley Bonnette, typist, and Sue Blumberg, receptionist. The Milkyway Daily is being efficiently run by Jeanette Marlin with Grace Green as society editor, Russell Lincoln, farm news writer, and Marlene Chase, sports editor. As we pass the court house, I recognize some voices. As I look in, I see the lawyer Victor Carlson questioning a man from Mars. Ethel Carlson and Ingrid Pessl having a difficult time taking down the notes because Marilyn Swanton keeps sneezing and turning the pages. There is an excellent commercial school located three craters west and one south of the bank. Its staff consists of Leona Wyckojj, who teaches typing, Theda Walter, for comptometer, Marjorie Martin, shorthand, and Mary Lewis, bookkeeping. Shirley Jean Petersen is the supervisor of a cute day nursery where Betty Race, Connie Cook, and Barbara Bensinger Oberlin have been bringing their children. With all the new rocket ships, it becomes necessary to have good mechanics. Ron Conrad owns probably the best garage for repairs where he employs such mechanics as Frank Braden and Jerry Bowen. As I pass the J. C. Penney Store, where Bruce Schrader is manager in the sports department, I see Shirley Ann Petersen decorating the manikins in the latest styles created by Mabel Christopherson. It seems the Gibson plant has expanded and transferred some of their most efficient help; some of them are Bev Rosebrook, Pat Andrews, and Wanda Anderson. I can see the race track where Mary Walkington and Willis Walt hit is raced yesterday. Who won? Mary, of course. As I walked into the beauty shop there were two more classmates to greet me, Louise DuMond and Donna Jensen. Both of them ready to fix my hair for the trip home. And last but not least, I saw Karen Allen who has finally become a studio secretary. And so ends my first trip to the moon. If you’re wondering who I am, the letter I is the first initial of my name, Imagination.” And for all of you to get the full value of my trip, use your imagination, and you be the I” as you read the story.
