Darmzll Senior High Sclmrfl Presents Chi 1965 Sphiur Volume 49 Qrfrewrfrd We, the class of '65, have opened the door to a new future for GHS. The books we have studied, the organi- zations in which we have participated, the sports in which we have engaged, and the relations we have formed with other people -- all join to turn the key to our successful tomorrows. ln this annual, we lock up all the wonderful experiences we have shared and the new ideals we have gained. Long will they live in our hearts, and many times will we take the latch off of our collection of memories. 'YY and ,,.., A I Dedimfim I, D, Darnall Senior High School of Geneseo, we dedicate this annual to you. We wish to acknowledge your abundant new facilities which serve as the key that unlocks the progressive methods of education. These visible and hidden methods will be measured by the successes of the students as citizens of the near future. We are thankful for having been able to begin our lives with your birth.

Knowledge is the treasure, but practice is the key to it. 611155 History So many memories, so many good times! Here are some of the highlights of our three years at G. H. S. Our sophomore year we were the youngest but biggest class. Guided by Norton, Johnson, Calsyn, and Mrs. Shorb, Mr. Pease, and Mr. Johnson, we spent our year selling magazines, having workdays, and creating our Homecoming float, Crush 'em, which won the prize for the most beautiful float. We little sophomores were pretty proud! Then came our junior year, the middle year. Shambaugh, Mahlstedt, and Wiltamuth led us through the storms of controversy over our prom Mardi Gras. With the help of Mr. Pease, Mr. Johnson, and Mr. Ostermeier, however, we finally succeeded in having one of the best proms yet. Then came the terrific rush of activity of our senior year--our winning float, Dehorn the Devils, the Senior Class Play, choosing class colors, motto, and flower, extemp again, caps and gowns, graduation invitations, baccalaureate, and finally graduation itself. Shoemaker, Rice, and Whitmore led us through our last frantic year. And now, the first class to graduate from the J. D. Darnall Senior High School, we enter a new life and a new quest for knowledge with all the keys for success given to us.

Three convicts acted as three guardian angels for Marie Louise, a young French girl living with her mother and father in French Guiana. Marie Louise was in love with Paul, the son of a wealthy, penurious Frenchman, Henri Trochard. With the help of Adolphe, a poisonous snake, the Three Angels took care of Marie Louise 's problems and made her realize that she was in love not with the real Paul, but rather with one whom she had idealized in her mind.

This is obvious in the way the great graduates of 1965 have scattered all over the globe. Let's start our world tour in London, where Marilyn Tady, Ed Kittrell, and Chuck Wiese are a folk- singing trio in a Coffeehouse that specializes in Chinese food. Joyce Taube, John Rashke, and John McAvoy are cooks there. Waiters serving expresso coffee in the same restaurant are Gary Massey, Jerry Quillen, Allan Gehn, and Dale Gradert. Not far away at Oxford, Chuck Norton is a professor of English. His hundreds of essays are famous for their cynicism. Across the English channel in Paris we find Rita Bassier, Paula Blumenstein, Jane Rink, and Carol Varney performing as dancers in the Follies Bergere. Sitting in the front row watching them are, naturally enough, Marion Mirocha, Dan Caras, Lonny Firch, and Steve Graham. A couple of blocks away we find Mag Smeltzer, Delores Clark, and Janet Betcher employed as designers in the House of Dior. This year's fall collection of all three got rave reviews from the fashion critics. Lmhda Verstraete, Sherri Loucks, and Sandy Carter are their head models. Most of our more creative class members are located in Paris. Caroline Smith writes beat poetry, and Bill Roesner has a sidewalk display where he sells his paintings on the left bank. Farther south on the French Riviera Dave Berner and Jack Brown are occupied as lifeguards saving pretty girls such as Sharon Ritch, Nancy Urban and Sherry VanDeRostyne, who do nothing but while away their time sun-bathing on the beautiful beaches. On location in Italy we find Craig Mahlstedt and Mary Peponis, the modern Peter Sellers and Sophia Loren, making a low-cost foreign movie. Mark Smith is currently a broadcaster in West Germany for Radio Free Europe. Darrell Strohman writes all his material. Tuming now to Russia, we find Sid Magerkurth as ambassador in the U. S. embassy in Moscow. His two head interpreters are Sharon Holland and Jean Ellsberry, and his private secretaries are Linda Salto, Judy Cobb, and Mary Bessant. Down in Tanganyika the members of our class have accomplished a big undertaking. Kathy Skelton and Denise Wiltamuth have founded a boarding school for native children. Kathy and Denise are heads of the physics and Latin departments respectively. Also on the faculty are Wesley Jones, professor of non- conformism, Steve Shipman, leader of the native music group, and Max Radue, who teaches jungle agri- culture. Marcia Bartz is head of the home economics department. Pat Wyffels, Larry Lewis, Chuck Loenser, Terry Goodwin, and John Lounsberry are in Egypt making plans for another dam across the Nile River. This will be their tenth. Nearby, Al Ward and Cliff Webb are selling bikinis to Egyptian women still wearing veils. Oh well, they'll never give up! Also in Egypt, Bryce Chamberlain, Pat Johnson, Gary Felske, and Davis Eskelson are excavating for ancient Egyptian tablets. If they ever find anything they'll send it to Jerry Kane in his mountain laboratory in Afghanistan to be deciphered. Jerry is now head of the Alder Observatory but vacations in Afghanistan. Dan Fleming, David Goreth, Karen Alexander, and Ann Peak run a training school for camel drivers. This is a skill that is fast dying out, and they felt they owed it to posterity to preserve it. Also in Afghanistan, Connie Shambaugh and Marj Koerper have opened a Dairy Queen branch. As a sidelight Connie writes children's books, and Marj translates them into French. The world famous oil tycoons, Ronald Klavohn, Dennis Loenser, and Charles Tieken have collaborated on a hugh drilling project in Saudi Arabia. Tom Borkgren's construction company is handling the building of a pipeline to a major port on the Red Sea. Sharon Crist, Sharon Collins, Barbara Stohl, and Carol Crisop have become exceedingly wealthy through speculating in diamond mines in the Union of South Africa. They now each own huge estates in the mountains. Conducting safaris through the Serengeti plains are Gary Ellis, Steve Krantz, aro ' om so , and Pat Braekevelt. Pat and Caroline are very well-known for their prowess in fighting off lions. fcontinued on page 803 Q 1, i x + QE, if if T-x if '41 Qfwi ff .XJ I am-am: b va 1 ,A .1 ,fl 2. xf K f' lo I I .

D. Dar- nall Senior High School found their year a little hectic, but they managed to have plenty of fun. They studied hard and looked forward to being mature seniors. They started out the year with a bang by winning the beauty prize for their homecoming float. Then came those great class rings and the excitement that surrounded their arrival. The second se- mester the juniors were occupied with planning and decorating for prom, which was a great thrill and a lot of fun. As the year drew to a close, the juniors looked back proudly on their accomplishments and forward to another successful year. In jlftemvriam Be comforted.

This was due to the huge number of sophomores and freshmen which descended on them all at once. They soon discovered, however, that these little underclassmen had big ideas and the determination and know-how to carry them out. The sophomores demonstrated this by selling magazines to raise money and dis- playing great school spirit. Yes, the soph- omores' determination and spirit will be their key to success in whatever they undertake in the future.

For the freshmen this was a year of firsts--first floats, first Booster Club par- ties, the first year of being official fresh- men rather than ninth graders, and many more experiences in high school life. This year was a test, a test of their ability to adjust to new educational and social exper- iences. The freshmen proved themselves fully and can remember fondly this year of firsts. This was the beginning--the begin- ning of a new life full of dedication, hard work, and good times. ilreshman 611155 . . Bill French . . Barbara Orsi . .

The actual fun be- gan on the Saturday preceding the parade when the various classes and organizations began making their floats. Most of the students would probably say the part of Homecoming they remembered best is the good times they had working on their floats, The Homecoming weekend officially started with the snake dance and bonfire Thursday night. The snake dance began at the band shell at the park and wound its way through the downtown section and over to the athletic field. There the cheerleaders led us in the school song and various cheers, and the Letter- men's Club provided a hilarious skit which was a take-off on the coach and football team, Friday afternoon the big attraction was the parade of the lovely and original floats. The winners were the Junior Class float, Conquer the Devils, which received the prize for beauty, and the Senior Class float, Dehorn the Devils, which won the prize for the most novel float. The football team climaxed the day by Dehorning the Devils of Hall Township by a score of 34-O. The highlight of the Homecoming was the Coronation of the king and queen at the dance Saturday night, Bob Seei and Sharon Emmerson were crowned King and Queen, Pat Wyffels and Connie Shambaugh were Duke and Duchessg and Dave Berner and Bonnie Happel were Lord and Lady. All will remember this as the first of many unforgettable Homecomings which will be held at our new high school. .
