INTERSTATE PRINTING CO. :ngraver g. r. grubb Preface “Graduation is here at last But we will always remember the past This year the MEDLEY staff is looking back in the past to our childhood. Remember the days when we could have listened forever to Mother Goose rhymes? We have tried to renew memories of some of these and other favorite verses. You may find a few of them changed a little but we think you will recognize most of them. With pictures and rhymes we have put together a scrapbook of the past year. We hope we have made it possible for you to remember these happy days for a long time, and that our book will afford you many pleasant hours. —The Editor Table of Contents SCHOOL SCENES CLASSES FACULTY ORGANIZATIONS ATHLETICS....

Whither shall I wander ?” In through the front door of D.H.S. or perhaps through the Circle drive door we enter to find the students lined up at the registration tables for a final check. DKAK KKC.1STKATION! I age Six CLASSES IN ACTION Then on through the classrooms in English Lit., Typing, W ood-shop. and Metal shop, we wander into the Foods and Chemistry labs. FUTURE HOMEMAKERS EXPERIMENTING? I’aye Seven PRACTICE SALESLADIES Walking down an almost deserted hall we come next to the new distributive education room, hollowing the band downtown we join in a pep parade and then rest with the boys on a sunnv lawn. THE BAND PARADES ENJOYING THE SUN t‘aye Eight MAKING A LITTLE MONEY MEDLEY WORK AND INTERVIEW SUPS After school we pause by the refreshment counter for the basketball games, go on up into the Medley room, and finally out to the parking lot where we stand waiting for the 3 :20 rush to get the first seat on the bus. We’ve taken quite a tour around D.H.S. but now we're headed for home. DON'T PUSH BOYS! Through Registration came ’round two times in the year, We all stood in line just as they’re doing here. Assembly Fund Drive- and touchdowns were scored We kept them all posted on the big North 11 all Hoard. The first basketball game, we hardly could wait So we bought and sold mums to point out the date. The Year The swimmers appeared at the end of the year. Their beautiful dives made all of us cheer. The D.H.S. Players” shone twice in a row, 11 was scenes such as these that kept us aglow. The trophy case broadened when winter came ’round With Paris' second place and the Hig 12 swim crowns. These boys came from far and these boys came from near To speak in the contest American Legion held here. We sat by the store when lunchtime was here 'Tvvas nice to be out in the spring of the year. FOR Pape Twelve Page Thirteen CLASSES MISS SANDESON, PHIL ROUSE Seniors “S is for Seniors Whose class leads the crew We’ve gone our four years And so bid adieu.” There’s always a little regret in leaving things behind, but looking ahead into the future, we realize there's a lot in store for us. The time since we first entered these halls four years ago seems short in retrospect, but many happy memories of classes, games, parties, and good friends crowd our minds. Our president this past year was Phil Rouse who was ably assisted by vice-president Norma Dale, secretary Betty Sue Cox, historian Marilyn Stephan and the chairman BARBARA INMAN, BOB WITT, MILDRED TRARES WIN I STUEBE, SAM CANNON Page Fourteen of the following committees, social, r.retchen Funk; program.

Elected to represent the class in Student Council were Barbara Inman, Millie Traces and Bob Witt. A lot of thanks and appreciation, too. were due to Miss Ruth Sande-son for her helpfulness and kindly guidance through this year. Yes, our year as Seniors may have passed away But we’ll not forget the fun of each day. BETTY SUE COX. MARILYN STEPHAN, NORMA DALE t;i XE HINTON, EDWINA STUEBE Faye Fifteen ABBOTT, JEAN Y-Terns 2.

Scholastic achievements, interest in outside activities, and general good citizenship were the qualities upon which they were elected by their fellow classmates. This honor is one of the most coveted which is bestowed upon any graduating senior. Marilyn has established herself as a valuable asset since her entrance into Danville High from Trinity Lutheran School by playing an active role in school affairs. She is president of A Cappella Choir, historian of the senior class, a member of Worth While Writers, feature editor of the M. W. and w as elected by her fellow classmen to reign as Homecoming Queen during the homecoming festivities. Jim Turner has proved himself a zestful and popular young man around D.H.S. through his participations in extra-curricular work. In his Junior year he served as president of his class, and this year was captain of the baseball team, a member of the color committee and one of the first five players on the basketball team. We congratulate this popular pair upon the fine honor which each has so deservinglv won.

Reviewed the events of the year. But there is a lot of work and time behind a finished copy of the Medley, and any staff member will vouch for this statement. Its beginning dates back to 1904 when a group of industrious students put their thoughts and talents together and published the first school yearbook of Danville High. Since then, scores of students have gone through this very same process to produce a book which would record the highlights, the fun, the joys, and tears of life at Danville High. Each year the Medley staff strives to do this in the best way possible, and we, the staff of ’49, by means of pictures and prints, have tried to give you a suitable publication. The cutting, pasting, writing and drawing are all done in room 332, the special Medley room, and 307, the art room. Sol Kardon has engineered the ‘49 staff along with the seven other heads— Pat Clem, organization; Almalee Jones, school; Millie Trares, copy; Judy Crowell, art; Don Jones, photography; Jim Gauerke, business manager; and Gene Hinton, advertising. But the Medley would have a pretty hard time of it were it not for the aid of its advisers; Miss Frances Watkins, Miss Betty Sullenberger. Mr. Finley Hogbin, and Mr. Ralph Espy. So to them the ‘49 staff extends its profound thanks and gratitude. Scaled—Miss Sullenberger, Miss Watkins, Millie Trares, Almalee Jones, Pat Clem.

These were the stars that shone so bright Their ‘Divine Flora’ gave much delight.” Humor, pathos, and romance were all skillfully intermingled in “The Divine Flora” the delightful 3-act comedy which was presented by the D.H.S. Players. The play joined its precedents in living up to the high standard of talent always characteristic of this annual production. Center of all affairs was Etta Dean, a shy, awkward, motherless girl of 16. Having been brought up strictly by her grandmother, Etta had been dubbed Little Miss Prune Puss, but when Randv Pryor and Buzz Rafferty, two aspiring advertising men, appeared on the scene, her troubles were immediately remedied. They prove their ability by merchandising her as “The Divine Flora.” However, when Tex Arlen, popular radio crooner, appeared, the fireworks really began. Sharon s romantic problems, Kit's ideas of a celebrity indorsement tor Flora and the bobbv soxers’ mad pursuit of lex, Mr. Pryor's hopeless attempts to spend a restful summer in spite of his wife’s comfort, all added to the frolic which made “The Divine Flora” a great success. “LITTLE MISS PRUNE PUSS” FLORA ARRIVES THANK YOU, BOYS Page One Hundred Thirty-two Hal Winnie Boops Stu Kit Almstead Beverlv English Etta (Flora) Dean Judv Helen Randy Pryor Mr. Pryor Don Pulliam Mrs. Pryor ....Eli zabeth Shurtleff Buzz Rafferty Bob Royalty Two girls in prologue Gretchen Funk Wini Stuebe Mr. Dean Bill Handley Sharon Pryor Bob Wayne .........................Sam Cannon Tex Arlen ..................Gill ert Moser Polly..................................Joan Royalty Heleana...............................Patsy Nelson Marville .............................Norma Dale Doris .......................Dorothy Porter Mary..........................Mary Jo Flynn Cindv ....................Sharon Anderson Extras.........Barbara Linne, Nancy Grubb, Norma Mast, Charlotte Seils Daphne .......................Julia Crowell Mr. Dugan...............................Bob Pace Susie .....................Jo Ann Barrett Bella................................Sylvia Coleman Page One Hundred Thirty-three M o in ent s “Sing sony!

The opening unit was presented by the Euterpeans who sang praises of spring against a background of apple blossoms. The girls in their billowing white formals and the boys in their tuxes added the necessary color which made this unit one of great beauty. The entire A Cappella Choir brought the days of Show Boat to life again for Unit II. With the portrayal of Captain Andy and other famous char- Musical actors, the old fashioned hoop skirls, the background of the Glendy Burke, and the well known Show Boat melodies, the Choir put a most realistic touch to this famous musical. The Band and Orchestra went out west among the cactus and pines to a dude ranch which furnished the scene for the closing unit.

The Extension, under the capable direction of Mr. Milhon, and Miss Mary Miller, director and assistant director, has offered a well rounded course of study for all its students, both freshmen and sophomores. Courses such as math, chemistry, rhetoric, and engineering drawing have been popular, along with other fields of work. But studies aren’t all that the school offered. On the social side there were dances, basketball games, and Kollege Kapers, a special variety stunt show. It gave an opportunity for fun and talent to be displayed, along with the serious side of work.
