Traditior’s aboat to be bro Jast For Now, We’re Since its doors first opened in the fall of 1967, DeKalb High has been “Home of the Barons” to over 4775 students in grades nine through twelve. This school year, 1974-75, was the last year for it to house ninth graders. September of 1975 will see the freshman class attending the new DeKalb Junior High School. This year DHS hosted a seris of “lasts.” For example, the last freshman basketball tourney was held in January and the last freshman class officers were elected in September. Also, next year no freshman orientation meeting will be held and the freshman lockers may be assigned to someone else. We will be fewer in number — with more elbow room — next year. Cafeteria lines may be shorter and an empty table may be easier to find in the commons. And “Battle Cry” will have one less spelling of V-I-C- T-O-R-Y. In a different way, seniors also spent their last year at DHS this year. The class of “’75” made its own unique contributions before taking their sepa- rate paths to the future. But this year, though slightly crowded, we’ve learned about each other and our world as together we enjoyed life, studied, met, played, and made friends. So — whether freshman or senior or somewhere in between ... JUST FOR NOW, WE’RE ALL TOGETHER. 2 Opening
