Jeanette Naley Jeanie had just one problem in her otherwise eare-free existence -to wit, Luther Men fhubba i J. A bonnie lass with voiee so pure .leanette's outside aetiv- ities were Glee Club and Mixed Uhorns. Uh. lillllkllil' Glorianne Narveson On the quiet side, this senior gal chose Glee Club as a diver- sion from the grind of the General Course. Glorianne was born with a love of the out- doors and her happiest moments are spent in hiking, rain or shine. Your Iilirlwi-l'll uvlllli' Howard Nelson Another mint julep gentle- man, Howie enriehed lJ.ll.S. with his arrival from Quantieo, Virginia in his .junior year. Making use of that natural rhytlnn, Howard plays in eon- eert band and brings up the rear of marching band with his drum. llrrrln mer Roy Corinne Peterson This eute but sassy Viking copy writer showed her greatest skill when it 'came to musie, being in Glee Club, Mixed Uhorus, and Band. Aeeording to the sixth hour Lit 4-lass, Pete's most aggravating habit seemed to be trotting in, ten minutes late, and waving fwonder of won- dersb a 'lflllfl' slip. QMaybe she had a 11ull.j Petite Pete Bernell Ramlo Planning to be a baehelor, Ber- nell spent his love on his pony, a black one, whieh he rode to work every day. llis fiery red buteh was a familiar sight to residents of the flat and earned him the eoveted title of Red Ramlof' Pony Boy Margaret Raschke No matter what talent you may name, Peggy has it-winning a state musie rating, holding re- sponsible positions on our two publications, and appearing in several plays. Iler rare sense of humor and original ideas for misehief made all students gay and some teachers grey. .lllinnfnsnfa lx Helter Pauline Reed When she could tear herself away from all her boy friends, Polly found time to be Glee f'lub and Chorus songstress, aetress, and advertising manager of the Viking. ller working days were spent selling sweets in the local bakery. I llluxl llmv' Tllul lllrm William Reichow As the blue-eyed Student Rody president who literally fioored most of the gals in D.lI.S, Bill seemed to have a eorner on extra-curricular aetivities. What with track, football, and basket- ball, it was indeed a wonder how he squeezed in time for eutting loose with his bass voice in both ilhorus and Boys' Glee Club. Tall, lhzrlr, And Oh My!! Clara Ann Rogen Owner of that fabulous horse- laugh, no situation was ever dull with Rogie on the spot. Only bleary-eyed on Thursday mornings, Clara Ann gave her- self wholeheartedly to both Glee Club and Mixed Chorus. Silently She Completes Her Task Kletus Rood Klete astounded all of D.H.S. with his elear tenor voice in Junior Miss. His musical eareer did not interfere, how- ever, with either his job at Johnson's station or his position on our sharpshooter basketball team and on the Viking staff. The G1-on ner

Wallace Tolstad The boy with the motoreyt-le, this handsome lad from Edin- burg, Texas, knocked on the doors of l7.ll,S his senior year. Wallie, a somewhat serious student was another senior who took the General Course. Ifoulwl Azul Spurrzvl Joanne Torgrim 'l'hird from the right in l'rof's eornet sem-tion, Jo and musie were just like that. Besides band she also belonged to Glee Ulnb, Chorus, and G.A.A. Cllow did that last get in there, Torg Tj III'-ll, Wait For Mel Shirley Weis Our own lovely with that won- derful eomhination of auburn hair, peaches and cream eom- plexion, and blue eyes, Shirley rightfully reigned as queen in her senior year. l'eael1ey's numerous outside activities in- cluded G.A.A.,C'horus, Glee Flub, Cheerleader, and dramaties. .llrn Arr The Spin' Of Life 0lllllI'I'll Shy Karl Hanson As the Laurence Melehior of our fair st-hool, Halls just nat- urally led those bassos in Prof's Chorus and Glee Club. This Blond from way baek also played that great big horn in the band, proving the old theory that all that wind didn't come without praetiee. Could Hr' Br' Noru'0g7im1.'.' Howard Womeldorf Although not exaetly a. wolf fahemj, Howie, nevertheless, managed to get around quite extensively. Always active in extra-curricular activities, he participated in football, basket- ball, Mixed Vhorus, and had a part in the Junior elass play. Mon About Tourn 21 Percy Wepler Percy had no time for women, what with elerking in his dad's grocery store and being left tackle on our football team. On days otf, Percy joined the tribe of enthusiastic hunters and fishermen. Slow B111 Surf Ethel Westby Ethel was another of those eountry lasses who was studying to be a teacher. ln eonneetion with her normal training work, she was vieespresident of the Froebel Club. During of hours at Sande's, one eould find her pursuing her favorite pastime, dancing. A Lillle Bit Inrlependrnr Gloria Winger Even if no one else knows what time it is, Gloria 4-an readily tell them by glam-ing at the Bulova. she earned as the super' salesman of the senior t-lass. She probably got that selling teehnique at a loeal store where she grapples with the groceries. Her G.A.A. points mount high because she has a passion for bicycling and basketball. Pi ll ky Camera Shy Robert Rounseville Brightening any elass with those erisp and eryptie remarks, Bob's main ambition was to hit 120 in his snazzy Olds. He and his bosom pal, Kelly, were notorious for the happy-go-lueky way they treated everything in general and life in particular. In My Merry Oldsmobile
