Industrial power and potential have become the backbone of national defense. Its skill, efficiency, and technological improvements have brought forth mass production to the extent thatwise usage of modern conveniences has been possible and a higher standard of living attained. Behind the front line of production lies much scientific study and research. Chemists, physicists, and the many types of engineers, trained in the schools of this country, have used their knowledge and ingenuity to attain new industrial heights. Skilled workmen are needed on the production line and well trained office personnel and executives are needed in the field of management. lndustry is quick to recognize that training on the iob for specific jobs in much more effective when such training is preceded by aback- ground gained in schools on the college and high school levels. Thus, industry has always beena bulwark of strength in support of education. Evidence of this support is abundant within this local community. We are fortunate in having within the school district a concentration of over one hundred industries organized as the Clearing Industrial Association. Not only do they provide a large portion of the necessary financial supportfor the school, but they also lend a strong moral sup- port. Students and graduates have found the accessibility and recep- tiveness of these industries most helpful in securing employment. Active assistance in the educational program has been contributed by certainClearing industries. Studentsand teachers have been received cordially on visits to offices and plants. On one occasion a group of executives spent an afternoon in the school presenting problemsof office management to the classes in the business education department. On another occasion the advanced stenography students had the privilege of spending a day in one of the offices to observe and participate in office procedure. The Board of Education representing the citizens of the school district has appreciated the cooperation and assistance given by officials of the Clearing Industrial District, Inc . in solving site and building problems. ln appreciation of the significant contribution made to the whole educationalprogram, the 'staff and students of Reavis High School are proud to dedicate this edition of the ARIES to they highly respected and outstanding segment of industry, The Clearing Industrial Association. With it goes our pledge to strive toward those high levels of attainment ,wbich have been the essence in making industry the great cog that it is in our modern age.

The yearbook has been divided into five main sections: administration, classes, organizations, sports, and school life. The staff of the ARIES sincerely hopes that it has given inclu- sive coverage to all phases of school life through this division. Division pageswere composed with the intention of showing the parallelism of industry to our school. The staffis grateful to the following for their partin helping make the 1953 ARIES a success: Mr. Dean Barnard, secretary of the Clearing Industrial Association: Miss Edith Thompson, editor of the Kellogg Messenger: Mr . Sam Becker and Mr . Joseph E. Gessiner of the Gibson Studios of Chicago: and Mr. Harry H. Jarman, Illinois representative of Myers and Company. They would also like to thank the faculty for their assistance whenever needed . A yearbook does not come into being by itself. Any staff or individual who has worked on such a publication will endorse this statement. A yearbook comes into being when many persons successfully combine their efforts to the common purpose at hand -that of recording the highlights of the current school year. A group of this type operated at Reavis High School during the publishing of the '53 edition of the ARIES. IIIINIINIS... ADMINISTRATION ....

SUPERI NTENDENT Carl Thokey The Board of Education of the Reavis High School District is similar to a board of directors ofa corporation in industry. Infact, the school districtis legally known as a quasi-public corporation, that is, one which operates within the limit of powers granted it by the legislature of the State of Illinois. Members meet monthly to handle rnaior business items, plan the general policies of the school, evaluate accom- plishments, and delegate to an adminis- trator the authority to operate the plant. Superintendent Carl Thokey partici- pates on a broad front. He ioins with the BOARD OF EDUCATION k P 1 M Matthew Baile Jr.g Mr. Leo Hankeg Mr. Peter Russian, presidentg Mr. Nic aug r. y Mr. John Kraatzg Mr. Thomas Brackenburyg Mr. Walter Kozinskig and Mrs. Lester Cam- mack, secretary. IIIMI ISIIIAIIII board of education in determining the gen- eral policies ofthe school, which with the aid of the staffdetermines the administra- tive procedures, handles the business ad- ministration, coordinates the building and ground planning, andis anxious to partici- pate in student activities and circulates as much as possible among the students. He is constantly alert to any opportunities for making the school the best. Mr. J. Shultz, servingas administra- tive assistant, handles the many details of routine which the day by day operation of a high school program requires as it revolves about the office as a nerve center. Patricia Segal and Mari lynn Kolarshare the secretarial duties of the office serving administrators, teachers, and students in a multitude of ways. ADM. ASSISTANT JOHN SHULTZ MRS. PATRICIA SEGAL MRS.

Such a group is the maintenance staff. Helping to prepare and serve the students and teachers their meals during the '53 school year was a cafeteria staff that included Mrs. Al Chrapkowski, Mrs. Carl Pollack, Mrs. Ken- neth Zollars, and Mrs. William R. Wilson. The big responsibility of keeping the school clean and seeing that the studentswere trans- ported to and from school was a iob done by the building and bus staff. The group included the following men: Jay Mullin, Walter Sch- mitz, R. J. Evans, Joseph Streic, Lewis E. Darwent, John Fuller, George Ambrose, Gus Hertenstein, William Miller, James Harper, William O'Rourke, and Paul Vose. LEFT TO RIGHT: Mrs, Carl Pollack, Mrs. Kenneth Zollars, Mrs. A.

To guide them through their last year of high school, the senior class elected the fol- lowing officers: Jim Rokaitis, president, Pat Janos, vice-president, Leo Kernica, treas- urer, and Miriam Jurlow, secretary. Student council representatives were Margaret Kamp- enga and Chuck Stancik. Faculty sponsors for the group consisted of Mrs. D. LeVine, Miss M. Lavery, and Mr. A. Hansen. The seniors found their last year at Reavis a very active one. They were responsible for 16 the first Homecoming Dance which was held October ll in the gym. The theme of the affair was Harvest Moon. The ballroom was beautifully decorated with cornstocks, pumpkins, scarecrows, and colorful leaves. Studentsof the senior class also gave free- ly of their time to participate in the senior play, the junior-senior banquet, and the pub- lishing of the yearbook. However, all was not work for the group. After practicing hard for graduation, they held their senior picnic. MA RLENE ABELLA . . . Mar , . , Vice-president ofband , , , President of SpanishClub , ,.

Pascual, .im This book has recorded in an attractive and interesting manner the activities of this past school year. For the graduates of the class of 1953 this was a final year and the one which will be prominent in their memories. The grads may look back at the building in which they will no longer attend classes with the view that they are leaving their school days behind . However, they then become members of the alumni and, thus, are always a part of Reavis High School. This school is more than building and personnel. Tradition, sentiment, memories, and ties of Friendship make up an intangible asset which may be enioyed lay all as the days go on . Special attention in this book has been 84 given to the great industrial area of our school district. We extend best wishes For continuous progress and expansion in its development as the days go on . Plansfor expansion ofthe Reavisfacilities are already in the making. Next Fall the new Footballfield and track will be ready For use. Drawings for the various fields of the present 40-acre site have been completed by the engi- neers.
