Someone has said the most important of those resources is the young people of the community. The future economic and moral prosperity of Delavan, it seems to me, is well assured. Delavan's richest resource, as represented by that portion of its young people in our school, will face future responsibilities with the same high purpose that has characterized their elders of the past and present generations. .School Soarcl S olT,:1 ob rt M'� - • A.

Finley Student Cdt ounci The student council is made up of the four class officers from grades nine through twelve with Mr, Kleyensteuber as their advisor. The purpose of the council is to give the students a chance to voice their opinions through representatives. Our annual Homecoming Celebration is sponsored by the student council. This year it also put on a very successful mixer, with the admission charge l 2f per inch. This year the council passed a rule stating that all class treasurers must submit, at the end of the year, a complete report on the financial status of each class. This report is to be read to the class members. Our council has also started to work on a code of standards for cheerleaders. Officers for this year were President, Earl Quinney; Vice President, Tom Finley; and Secretary-Treasurer, Joan Stevens. — 6 — Senior Scene: The year 1982, aboard the spaceliner Delahi bound for the planet Mars.

The team, with the coaching of Wallace Zimmerman and Claude Radtke, compiled a record of three victories and three tie games. They met with two defeats; one to the league champions, Harvard, and the other to McHenry. Despite the dearth of pre-season press notices, the team used this record for a tie with Marengo for third place in the swani-League. Pass plays accounted for a major portion of the team's yardage and this coupled with some good running put the team near the top in offense statistics. Dick Smith was named honorary captain of the team for his play at right end.

While last year's championship B squad supplied most of the material, there were three returning lettermen: Merrill Erickson. Dick Dickman, and Ray Mueller. Erickson transferred to Sparta in the middle of the season, while injuries kept Dickman from playing several games and Mueller from participating in the Beloit Regional Tournament. With only four players graduating, next season promises to be a successful one.
