DeLand Weldon High School - Eagle Spotlight Yearbook (Weldon, IL)

Text from Pages 1 - 104 of the 1962 volume:

We four tired but contented people hope that we have worked a tangled mass of plans, pic- tures, and names into an Eagle that you will be proud of. To the graduating class we extend our sincere congratulations and best wishes for a happy and successful life. The 1962 Eagle is a lasting tribute to our Alma Mater. The staff’s aim in the publication of this yearbook is to present a picture of our school activities, both regular and extracurricular - classwork, club activities, and sports - . . . a story told in pictures of our work, our play, and our beliefs . . . a story of a school dedicated to an intangible ideal that tomorrow’s achievements are built on today’s accomplishments. Thus we salute our school - ” DELAND -WELDON HIGH - ALL HAIL!” Editor DAVID PLAYER Layout Editor JEANNIE GUFFEY Business Manager CARMEN WILSON Junior Editor RICHARD GIBSON Junior Business Manager SYLVIA KIDD Photographer DAN SEAL Typists CAROLYN RIDDLE SHIRLEY KIDD, KAYE THOMPSON VIRGINIA HOPKINS Advisor JOHN H.

Transporting children to and from school is very important to the proper functioning of a school. It is a job requiring patience and knowledge of laws of the road. Their many trips are filled at times with hazardous driving conditions. Many nights they make trips with ball teams, bands, and various other organizations. They also keep their busses clean, orderly, and in good running condition. The bus drivers play an Important part in D-W. H. S. Our custodians are another group of hard working individuals, who keep eur school functioning prop- erly. Because of their efforts the building is warm, clean, and san- itary. They also do many odd jobs to add to our comfort and enjoy- ment. ' TfCo ' ut t t a, Lena Danison, Geraldine Myerscough, Fern Fisher, Kathleen Dalton, Bertha Welch A time of day which everyone looks forward to is the lunch period. Our lunches are made more palatable because of the hours of hard work spent in their preparation by these women of the cafeteria. These women certainly deserve recognition and appreciation, since it is through their efforts that we have nutritious and attractive lunches. SALLY ANN BENGE Girls’ Chorus 1,2,3, 4; F.H.

This is heard often in the French classes, where students do their bit to eliminate the language barrier. Aural comprehension and speaking are emphasized. Students taking French study the language along with the customs and culture of the country. Taling, reading, and singing contribute to a better under- standing of grammar and pronunciation. Through correspondence students learn about the French firsthand. They also find out how the French youth regard the United States. Here some French I students point out the locations of their penpals homes on a map of France. Members of the freshman class spent most of their time in mastering the fundamentals of grammar and in im- proving their reading skills. Two projects of the year were the writing of autobiographies and of poems and essays entitled What America Means to Me. Sophomores expanded their knowledge of grammar and writing. Sentence and paragraph construction were added to their other skills. The class read many short stories, SILAS MARNER, and JULIUS CAESAR. IV Senior English students read a chrono- logical survey of English literature including Chaucer’s CANTERBURY TALES and Shake- speare’s MACBETH. In order to prepare for college English, they wrote and revised many themes and completed a major re- search paper. in The space age has not rendered the need for good expression obsolete, but has made good English essential in all occupations. English III students seek a better understand- ing and more skillful command of English through theme writing, grammar study, reports, and preparation of a term paper. Junior English classes study major Ameri- can authors in chronological order, doing outside reading in selected works. Some speech enlivens classes the second semester when students try their hands at informing, persuading, or generally keep- ing the attention of their classmates. Not all become silver-tongued orators, but many gain confidence. pte tc4 II At Christmas French II sang carols and discussed French Christmas traditions. Here a French group practices a lively carol for an assembly program. The study of chemistry introduces the student to some of the mysteries and phenomena of science. Through the study of the chemical elements and their relation to each other, the student learns the importance of chem- istry in the progress of civilization. Physics is that field of science which deals with different forms of energy and their relation to matter. This year the physics class has studied heat, light, sound, mechanics, electricity, electronics, and atomic science. In the picture below, the class is shown performing an experiment concerning sound and its actions under various conditions. This is just one example of the type of experiments which have helped them to better understand their work. ioioyicaC Science Forty sophomore students, with scalpel in one hand and microscope in the other, endeavored on an educa- tional journey through the biological sciences. Considerable time was spent on microscopic organisms, enumerable tiny plants and animals basic to our society, and a thorough analysis of the nine body systems of man. Frogs, earthworms, grasshoppers, and fish comprised the bulk of the dissection work. Live animals and snakes were also familiar sights in Room 11. The successful journey ended with an intelligent look at the past and a perplexing look into the future of biology in an ever-changing world. . ' PAycicaC Science ipenenzC Science During this year a new course, physical science, has been added to the curriculum of our school. For the seniors in the picture below, physical science has been a composite course consisting of the high points of gen- eral science, chemistry, biology, and physics. As in the general science class (right), the student learns to bet- ter understand his everyday surroundings. Both general and physical science have given the students a fuller realization of the place of science in our modern world. v i ! f f THAU - One effective means of tying together past and present history is through current events. Here we see part of the World History class preparing their current events scrapbooks. During the year, the class followed man ' s progress from the cave to th e city. Group discussion plays an important part in American Problems class. Current, world, national, and local problems have been discussed and analyzed. The United States and Illinois Constitutions have been studied. The purpose of such discussion and study is to prepare seniors for the post- high school years. Better citizens are the hoped for result. One important phase of each student ' s senior year is the decision of what to do after high school. Sally Benge is looking over the vocational and college information bulletin board during a break in American Problems class. Another means of studying American History is through individual and group reports. Here TomFritts is pointing out the major campaign of the Civil War. The class also spent some time studying the world’s geography. Many of Mr. Melton’s students expressed an interest in historical weapons. This group of students has brought together a number of Civil and Revolutionary as well as World War II weapons. They seem to be about ready to lead a student uprising. In another section of American History, Mr. Dobbs explains one of the major cam- paigns as several students follow in their texts. In mathematics, the most practical subject in all school work, we learn the basic and more ad- vanced functions. We learn to combine known facts and common sense to solve everyday problems. Math is used in almost every trade and science from the carpen- try used in erecting a building to the science used in designing to- morrow’s dream car. Even the housewife, the nurse, and the sec- retary find math very important in their daily activities. These are but a few of the reasons why math is one of the most important of sci- ences. To many, mathematics means nothing but geometric figures, numbers, and equations; however, these are all things which will be used during a lifetime. Students learn not only the techniques of mathematical calculation but also more basic ideas - such as, the proportion and relation between various objects in our everyday life. Employing sound reasoning and forming reasonable conclu- sions are the basic skills learned in a math class. Mathematics, aside from interest and entertainment , is the tool of all sciences. It contains many divisions such as arithmetic, the study of num- bers, the most elementary form of the science, followed by algebra which uses letters as symbols to represent different quantities. An additional phase of the science is geometry which does not deal chiefly with numbers and equations, but is concerned pri- marily with the study of three di- mensional figures. There are other fields which are very broad in those of solid geometry and trigonometry, necessary for surveying, engineering, and architecture. Effective bookkeeping is the backbone of an) type of business, whether it be a home or a national corporation. No enterprise can operate without bookkeeping records; furthermore every- one has personal records to keep. Jeannie Guffey and Shirley Kidd build their dictation speed by taking dictation from the tape recorder. £cLuecitto t In this high school the study of business edu- cation includes acquiring a knowledge of book- keeping, shorthand, typing, office practice and the use of office machines. This year for the first time advanced shorthand and transcription has been added to the many skills to be acquired. Students apt in these skills are constantly in demand in the world of business. The office practice class, composed of four- teen students, was in session during the second period this school term, during which time once each six weeks they worked on producing the newspaper until each issue was complete. Brenda Mitchell answers the telephone with a smile as though she were face to face with a school patron. To prepare for possible future office jobs was the goal of the office practice class which was under the direction of Mr. John Stock. To prepare for the tasks an office employee does, such as, taking dictation, transcribing, answering the phone, receiving customers or clients, filing papers and op- erating duplicating machines, each girl assisted in the school office during the day. Taking care of the mail, by Lois Folio- well, is a daily task of a secretary. Those students who are not entering the business world also find such courses as bookkeeping and typing helpful in their day to day business transactions. There will always be items to type, checks to write, and a budget to balance. Homemaking prepares girls for the most important career of their lives - marriage. Why is homemaking a career? It gives a girl the satisfaction of knowing that she has created a small world within a big world, a personal world belonging to her and her family in which she is responsible for creating attitudes and habits of thinking. It is her talent for loving and giving which helps shape the nation, even the world of tomorrow, and makes homemaking the important career it is. These girls in the family living class are giving the finishing touches to a bulletin board. Throughout the year groups of girls are responsible for one of the bulletin boards. Decorating the Christmas tree is an annual project of the F. H. A. girls. Some of the girls are spending their eighth period and after school finishing the tree for all students to enjoy. Girls in the clothing classes can hardly wait for the day to come to mark their hemlines. Jeanne Hopkins is having her hem checked by Donna Grant and will soon be ready for the style show. Homemaking helps the girls develop their skills in cooking, sewing, managing homes, and being intelligent consumers. Home- making, besides developing personal skills helps to develop public relations, develop and create interests in home life, and further the interest in homemaking. Using the family living area in the Home- making Department for discussion was some- thing new this year. A part of the family living class is shown in, a panel discussion on one of our common family problems. A part of Advanced Vocational Agriculture train- ing is the development of specific skills in farm mechanics. s4pucut£cvie In agriculture, boys learn much about farming and agronomy in general. Every boy has a project which he does his best to develop and on which he keeps records. To those continuing as farmers, the information acquired in the classroom on grain pro- duction, stock, soil conservation, and farm man- agement, will be most valuable to them. Even the others will find some application for their learnings. Sophomore students use the basic skills involved in farmstead wiring. General Shop students are busy learning a new skill, die use of the arc welder. In the top three pictures, some of the livestock projects are demon- strated. In the first, is an example of beef, while in the last two a fine example of swine are displayed. The picture immediately above shows how the boys made use of their mechanical ability. This trac- tor was completely rebuilt by some of the boys. Another example of a home project is the picture at the right showing a sturdily built fan. To the right, some of the boys take advantage of the materials our li- brary offers for use. Physical education is not always given the credit it deserves. Just as important as the building of a good body is the effort given to the building of a strong personality. In P.E. many qualities - such as sportsman- ship, determination, and self-discipline are stressed to form a better character as well as a more healthy body. This year D-W has been passing the students on the A.A.H. P.E.R. youth fitness tests: TEST I: Subject starts in water and swims a distance of 15 feet, using a stroke or strokes of his own choice. TEST II: Subject jumps into water over his head. He is then required to swim 15 yards; turn around, swim back half the distance; turn on back and rest for one-half minute; turn onto front and swim to starting point. TEST III: Swim 100 yards against time. In diving, John Workman demonstrates the front somer- sault tuck. The senior boys are demonstrating the crawl stroke below. ' Drive £duc zti x i The ultimate objective of Driver Educa- tion at DeLand -Weldon is to provide edu- cational experiences which will give the pupils the knowledge, the habits, the skills and, most important , the attitudes necessary for the safe operation of motor vechicles. i ccidcutce The guidance department at DeLand - Weldon High School is organized to help students in four basic areas. These are: (1) academic choices and difficulties, (2) voca- tional choices, (3) college, business school or technical school choice, and(4) personal problems. An open confidential atmosphere prevails for all high school students. Virginia Hopkins is one senior seeking vocational information from the guidance Office. G. McConkey - President, K. Reynolds - Secretary, Mr. Halcom (Co- Advisor). STANDING: M. Westray, D. Huisinga, R. Smith, C. Webb, T. Holtz, G. Goodmon, L.

The council helps to make rules governing the student body, plans school assemblies, provides noon hour entertain- ment, and helps to solve problems arising in school activities. We are sure that the type of work which the student council performs will do a great deal in preparing the members for positions of responsibility in their future life. Student Each day of the year, our stu- dent librarians work during their study periods checking out and card- ing books, filling out cards, and helping the studem body make de- cisions concerning which books to check out. Their work is not only helpful to the students but is a ne- cessity for the operation of a mod- ern library.

' TtectHifazfee From the beginning of the school year, the Eagle Staff, consisting of thirteen pro- duction and fourteen literary members, was busy recording all the events of the school year. News was gathered through the reg- ular processes of interviewing, collecting facts, copying, recopying, and submission for proofreading. The office practice class was in charge of the production of the Eagle. EDITORS Carolyn Riddle Carmen Wilson Asst. Editors Sylvia Kidd Richard Gibson ADVISOR John H.

It requires little effort to be a loser - and any one who tries can be most successful. The solid citizens” who finish this course” will be better men as a result of having stuck it out. The boy who sets his mind to do what is required of him in order to be a winner is not only the type of boy we are looking for, but he will get the most from the program. Those who stay will be champions and will become winners not only on the football field but in life itself.

EAGLES TIE FOR SECOND IN SANGAMON VALLEY CONFERENCE The 1961-62 D-W basketball team, greatly improved since the 1960-61 season, posted a 6-2 Sangamon Valley Conference record and an overall 9-12 season record. The team was led by juniors Dick Gibson and Don Huisinga and senior Gary McConkey. Dick led the team in scoring with 303 points for a 12.7 average per game. Gary was the top rebounder with 157 rebounds for the season and Don led the team in assists. Don was probably the most improved player on the squad. Mike Perkins led the team in free-throw accuracy with a .689 percentage. He was followed closely by Dick Gibson with a .687 percentage. Dick Gibson rated a first-team berth on the first-team All-Conference Squad. Gary McConkey and Don Huisinga won second team recognition. Mike Perkins, Ed Leischner, and Jim Carr all received honorable men- tion. KNEELING: B. Leischner, R. Bray, D. Smith, J. Huisinga, H. Myerscough, Coach Dobbs. STANDING: L. Pittman, R. Weaver, C.

Dan Seal looks terrified as Gary Mc- Conkey (Butcher Boy Bean) charges toward him in a rage. Kaye Thomp- son, as Tootsie Bean, tries in vain to restrain her brother. Ah — I like it! These were Greg Goodmon ' s (Keats) words for this scene with Carolyn Riddle (Vicky). Madame Winkelmann, the famous make-up artist, looks slightly con- fused as she tries to add years to the face of Grandmother Benge. Jim and Jeff Perkins and Alan Reeser made a BIG HIT when they tackled Greg Goodmon in this wild scene. Greg was sup- posedly their father, but they treated him like a hated enemy. We enjoyed a unique or- dering service for food and spent a delightful evening dining and dancing. Here, two happy couples sit on the side of an old fishing boat while posing for a picture. We danced to the dreamy music of the Frankie Leonard Dance Band. JUNIOR SENIOR PROM FANTASY OF THE SEA On May 18, the junior class presented Fantasy of the Sea as their prom for the seniors. The gym was decorated for an un- derwater scene with blue and pink crepe paper, fish, nets, bubbles, and sea life.
