everywhere displayed on sweaters, coats, hats, and shu ' ts. The Valentine dance on February 7th was the social event of the year. 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 A CIRCUS And we of the 1947 Ravelings ' Staff hope that you enjoy it, and that you will have pleasant reminiscing in leafing through its pages at some future date. Our Snapshot Editors were blessed with new photographic equipment this year and gained considerable experience in the finer points of photography while covering the Four Rings of Fun at D. H. S. The Raveling ' s Photography Editoi ' s were able to transfer several of their responsibilities to the Snapshot Editors, since they were now capable of turning out professional work. Mr. Smith spent considerable time and effort in studying the possible re- sults with our new equipment and served as director and coach of our Staff photographers. Mr. Smith is also the author of the poetry found on several pages of this book. Every circus has a serious side, but we were kept happy by the competent manner in which our Business Staff, under Miss Worthman ' s capable supervision, managed our financial relationships. The varied athletic activities of D. H. S. kept our Sports Editors busily engaged in their efforts to complete their write-ups. While their reports will show you the results of our sports year, the articles by Stanley McBride, Helen Baughman, Sue Harper, Don Grant, Roger Gentis, Betty Anspaugh, and Phyllis Kraft will give you a better idea of the many colorful and entertaining social acti vities of our clubs and class organizations. Miss Weidler volunteered her services as proofreader and accurately checked and corrected any grammatical errors. Our Copy Editors then took over and trans- formed the various articles into typewritten copy. The entire Staff feels that the Art Editors did a unique job in decorat- ing the pages of the 1947 Ravelings in a lively fashion. Their imagination and ability has done much to increase the attractiveness of our book. Miss Worthman ' s all-round knowledge proved invaluable in encourag- ing those worried and somewhat desperate people, the Editors, in their attempts to improve the Ravelings. The Editors also appreciated the readi- •T- ness with which Mr. Brown assisted them in their sundry difficulties. While we have mentioned the many persons most outstanding in the • • ' publishing of this book, we sincerely appreciate the assistance of all who have helped in making the 1947 Ravelings a livelier and more entertaining Yearbook. i SENIOR STAFF MEMBERS Above.
