In order that all classes might be represented, an officer is selected from each class. This year Phyllis McClure, a senior, was elected president, Sue Harper, a junior, vice president; Barbara Anspaugh , the secretary, and Betty Rose, the treasurer, were a sophomore and a freshman, respectively. The organization operated under the sponsorship of Miss Weidler and Miss Pumphrey. Our first project showed the co-operation and interest of students and faculty in their purchase of the booster buttons which the Pep Champs sold. These buttons could be seen

HOME-EC CLUB The Home Economics Club of D. H. S. was re-organ- ized at the beginning of the school term. The follow- ing girls were elected officers: Mary Leitz, president; Helen Baughman, vice president; Anna Marie Steury, secretary; and Donna Jaberg, treasurer. The activities of the Home-Ec Club are many and varied. The first activity this year was supplying the help to work in the canteen at the football games. The little women also served at the annual band banquet. A very interesting and entertaining musical chapel was sponsored by the Home-Ec Club this season. Something different was offered this year by the Club. A Senior and Faculty Tea was given after school in the Home-Ec room. Another tea of the same type is being planned for this spring. The Home-Ec girls also have many activities in the classroom. The first semester the girls learned the art of cooking. Many delightful confections were made by both the beginning and advanced classes. Even some first-class cakes were turned out. The second semester sewing machines started whirring and many smart fashions were produced. But, besides just sewing the garment the girls first learned what goes into its mak- ing. All this is very good, but none of it could be ac- complished well without the guiding hand of their able instructor, Miss Worthman. Top Row, L. to R.: Ellen Hart. Barbara Guilder, Carolyn Baughn.

The music room was appropriately and sentimentally decorated in hearts and cupid darts. A very large crowd danced to the music of a local teen-age orchestra. It ' s been fun to be a Pep Champ this year and to participate in the athletic activities of our school. Yea team!!! Yea Pep Champs!!! Group 3, L. to R.: Top Row: Norma Brown. Barbara Beehler.
