THE DEKALB TOWNSHIP HIGH SCHOOL WAS ESTABLISHED IN 1903 .... IN 1923 DONALD BLAZEVICH has spent four years participating in our athletic field. He was cap- tain of the '32 and '33 basketball teams and also acted as temporary coach during Mr. Drew's ab- sence this year. PAUL BROWMAN was an important member of our football team. His future hopes are to continue in the athletic world. CHARLOTTE BROWN is an expert cook who is capable of illustrating her ability. Charlotte is also very musical and is a member of the D. T. H. S. band. She hails from Malta. NEWELL BURROWS, a chemistry wizard who is slow but sure. Newell is one of few words but what little is said means much. The companionship of girls has never been cultivated by Newell. HERBERT CARLSON takes his school life so very seriously. He is a firm believer that silence is best. RAY CARLSON is a serious senior who is emerging from a successful hibernation. He was on the basketball squad his last year. DONALD CARR should be a decorator because of his great help in decorating for the prom. He entered DeKalb High School from Cortland in his junior year. He played one year on the foot- ball team and one year on the basketball. From Cortland comes EARL CARR whose favorite subject is English, but who intends to be one of our future farmers. Earl took part in intramural basketball both his junior and senior years. Earl is very quiet in the hall but it is rumored that he makes up for it in Ag class. Anyone who has had the pleasure of knowing ROSE CIPRI- ANI can prove that her attentions are divided between school and the future. Rosie,', as she is known to her intimate friends, finds something interesting every hour of the day. Although small in stature, ARLEEN CULVER is one of the most outstanding members in our class. Ir is understood that she believes in having a good time during her summer vacations. Discipline is Arleen's greatest problem in the library third hour. What would the Forensic Club do with- out EARL DONAHOE? Earl was often scolded for using abbreviations in English and in agri- cultural papers. ELEANOR EDEN believes in having a good time. She spent her first year in Shabbona, her second in Sycamore, and the last two years at D. T. H. S.

. . 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. WHO WAS GRADUATED IN 1882 ISA WELL KNOWN JURIST .... JACOB

SUMMER SCHOOL BEGAN .... THE CLASS OF 1924 WAS THE FIRST CLASS TO Any task FRANCES ELLIS undertakes is cer- tain to be done well. She is here, there and every- where, always ready to lend a helping hand to those who are in need of it. MARIAN ESTA- BROOK is the tall, slender girl whom we are so happy to have in our classes, and who seems to be happy to be with us as she is always smil- ing. Look in either physics or chemistry labora- tory and you'll see HOWARD EYCHANER. Maybe you might find him in the Barb room counting the money collected from advertisements in the Barb. He is also interested in a girl who has just entered our school. Wonder who? EILEEN FAIVRE enjoys cooking better than her other studies, a good chance for someone who relishes good food. If you're looking for informa- tion on farming, ask CHARLES FARLEY. He also likes to argue and for this reason is enter- ing the speaking contest of Future Farmers. Chuck is also well posted on automobiles and loves to look up reports on them. From Malta comes EDITH FINNESTAD. We wish she could have been with us four years instead of one. She is a very quiet girl in the classroom but likes to spend her leisure time at the piano. A very active member of our class is GILBERT FREY. He proves this by his activity in basket- ball. Good grades. Gib,' is very well liked by all his classmates and even the teachers speak well of him. That's a true compliment, Gib,'. The neatest senior in school is RUTH GERING who always looks very immaculate and very at- tractive as well. When Ruth smiles at her friends they feel their hearts turn over. CURTIS GINCK,S eastern way of pronouncing words is delightful, yet quite different. He has a keen sense of humor. Ask him to tell you a story. Everyone who knows PHYLLIS GONTER- MAN enjoys her friendship for she is a noble all-around girl and a willing helper. Phyllis likes to distribute the absence slips to the teachers. From Steward we have the welcome addition to our school of VIVIAN GOVIG. A's in Chem- istry are quite the thing for Vivian, One of our more sedate seniors is MILDRED GUTESHA who enjoys typing and has ably assisted in preparation of Kalibre copy. NEWSPAPER WAS ESTABLISHED IN DE KALB IN 1859 .... SIMON JOHNSON
