His memorable event was the association with students that respected each other and their instructors, and knowing they cared about them- selves and put forth maximum effort to do the best they could in whatever they were undertaking. Things that are lacking a great deal today.

Mrs. Joyce Cunningham English and French While at Danville High School, .Mrs.r Cunningham participated in the A Cappella Choir. She was also involved in the Maroon and White Newspaper, and she was a member of the Hi-Time Club sponsored by the Commercial News. Mrs. Cunningham was also active in the Radio Club and the French Club. One of the special memories she remembered was: An international radio broadcast, origi- nating in St. Cloud, France, called Danville High School and asked our Radio Club to repre- sent the United States in a broadcast. A special radio cable was run down from Chicago to WDAN Cat the cost of approximately S50 , 000 to the French governmentj . In the day of the broadcast, the teacher, together with the French students and I had our own microphones and amplifiers ready. At 5 a . m. the live broadcast began. Students introduced themselves, told what time it was in their country, gave the weather, told about school activities and played a song that was popular. So at 5 a.m. on a snowy , wintry morning , with the DHS Fight Song and Pat Boone in the background, we listened to French students from Algeria, France, Switzerland, and The de la Reunion. Problem: as we spoke , our words would travel around the world and come back to us seconds later - through our microphones. It was quite an experience! l
