Unlike previous years the dance was held at the beginning of the school year rather than in the spring. This plan was adopted to prevent too much social activity during the final weeks of school. The gymnasium was tastefully decorated in fall colors-shades of yellow, brown and lavender. A canopy of autumn leaves was over the entire gym ceiling. Garden furniture was placed around the wall so that onlookers might enjoy themselves. Programs for the dance were in the shape of autumn leaves. committee the night of decorating for the prom In order that the class might economize with their funds the fruit frappe was made by a com- mittee composed of members of the class. The grand march of the prom was led by Lawrence Keegan and Elsie Peura. The two classes were honored at the dance by the presence of Dr. and Mrs. A. C. Spickerman, Mr. and Mrs. L. C. Colvin, Mr. and Mrs. P. R. Rutledge and Miss Catherine Dennis, as chaper- ones, while the guests of honor were Mr. and Mrs. R. G. Beals, Miss Irma Wittke, and the re- maining members of the school board. FORMERLY STAGE ROADS .... A STREET CAR COMPANY HAD CARS TRAVELING

. . LATIN WAS ADDED TO THE HIGH SCHOOL CURRICULUM IN 1870. . CHARLES ABBOTT, a newcomer, came from Malta with his friend Chuck', Pease. Both spend much time on their Ford. ANTONIA ANDERSON, gayly Hitting hither and yon, is seldom found without a crowd around her for she is either entertaining her friends or waving hair. DOROTHY ANDERSON is looking forward to being a nurse some day. Her sweet personality and striking clothes are a marked as- set to any school. MARIAN ANDERSON is a guaranteed cure for the blues and can she sing them! Swede's famous smile has won her many friends. A senior who takes school seriously at least one tenth of the time but who gets along famously is NATHAN ANNAS. Like all other pressmen we find Nathan busy not only with his hands but with his tongue. THEODORE BABCOX doesnit let his studies worry him and yet he is faithful when it comes to identifying Kalibre pictures. Ted was a member of the heavy- weight football squad his junior year. He was in many activities. See Who's Who. One of our seniors who will undoubtedly become a suc- cessful actress is -IEANNETTE BALLOU as she has appeared in dramatic art work here through- out her four years. She was chosen as Mary Christmas , the townis most popular girl this year. GLADYS BACKUS came to DeKalb, this year and has made many friends. We are glad you came Gladys. LA VERLE BARNES is a firm believer in the old maxim Silence is golden. He is one of the smallest members in the class. He has been a member of our band for the last three years. His sister LAVERNA BARNES is quite the opposite, being a firm be- liever in woman's right to speak. Laverna is an- other of the class beauty culturists. MARJORIE BEALS, an ardent art pupil is likewise interested in English and journalism. She was a faithful worker on the Kalibre. For PAUL BLAIR life holds no problems-only joy. Wherever we find him, we find merriment. He was a member of our heavyweight basketball team his junior year but could not participate his senior year because he was a nine semester man.
