FOREWORD The 1962-63 school year was one of many changes for the Delavan-Darien High School District, most of which were more significant than any which have occured since the school opened in the fall of 1957. These changes, such as the Borg Memorial Field, the change of administrators, and the North Central Re-evaluation, along with a complete record of the school year, have been recorded in this book. Although students had to wait until late summer to receive their yearbooks, the ERA staff has included fuller coverage of Prom, spring sports and graduation to make the 1963 ERA the largest and most complete yearbook ever published by the students of Delavan-Darien High School. 1963 ERA STAFF Editor-in-Chief.
