Lined up and ready to take students home, the buses wait for the students to pour out of the school after their long day. Believe it or not, DHS students found many means of transportation to get to school. An unpopular way was walking. Very few students did this, but the ones who are fortunate to live next door didn’t really have much of a choice. Around 41% of our student popula- tion walk to their bus stops to ride the ever-so-popular buses.

Trucks of all sizes are one way Barons got to school, such as monster trucks, the over-sized trucks, and just the reg- ular pick-up variety. When the weather gets warmer, the younger students get out their bicycles and pedal their way to school. Ten- speeds or even free-style bikes are eco- nomical and sometimes a bit chilly. There are very few who do this, but the tn Using one of his favorite forms of transportation, Bill Tucker rides his horse for the Horse Club in Saturday’s parade at the DeKalb Fair. ones that do, say they have enjoyed it. Another drafty ride is the motorcy- cle. Some students get out their dad’s motorcycle or even their own and cruise to school. But over the years, students are still depending on the most common and popular way to school, the car. Cars can be used during all four seasons, day or night.

Saturday School was NOT a favorite spare time activity. Here, Randy Fox shows some “Unlucky Ones” his slides about EMS. What does your spare time consist of? Students of DHS found many ways to occupy their time when they were not at school. Part-time jobs were a big part of many of their lives. When the 3:30 bell rang, many students jumped into their cars and headed for work, where they spent most of their eve- ning. It was so much different for Diane Culler. She spent many of her nights roller skating. She skated for the Skatin’ Station and won state champ in her di- vision. At the Southeast Family YMCA in Ft. Wayne, Cheryl Barhydt practiced her swimming. She was on the team that finished seventh in the nation in the 4 x 200 relay. After school let out for Chris Klausen and Jamie Bonecutter, they went home, caught a couple of hours of sleep, and then headed for Ft. Wayne, where they had ice hockey practice. Dan Treace and Mark Healey had other things in mind, like BMX free- ““May I have your order, please.” Junior Tracy Smith seems to be enjoying her job at Kentucky Fried Chicken. style racing, which both of them were very successful in doing. Other Barons had other spare time interests such as working on their cars, listening to music, and going to movies, concerts, dances, and parties. There were even rumors that some worked on their homework. Whatever their activities, Barons managed to have something to do in their spare time. Hangin’ out is a popular Baron spare time activi- ty.
