The I 952 Senior Back in the fall of '48 when we entered the hallowed halls of old DTHS as greenies we couldn't wait until that glorious day when we would be stately seniors. We resented being looked down upon and having so few privileges. lust who did they think they were anyway? Weren't we just as good as they? The days, weeks, months, and years have rolled by and here we are occupying the top rung on the ladder of Secondary Education. The first few weeks we walked around starry-eyed, unable to believe that this was all true. Our hearts swelled with pride to think that we were admired by the underclassmen and were given all the privileges we had dreamed of for so long. We were brought back to reality, however, by the many responsibilities that were placed upon our shoulders. We had to have our pictures taken, practice for the class play, go to Latrobe to take the GATB test, order name cards and invitations, work on committees for dances and banquets, and get ready for graduation. We worked hard but we never missed out on the fun. The semi-formal and the prom were unforgettable events in our social lives. And when it came to pep meetings, we found ourselves cheering louder than we ever had before. lt was our team and no one was prouder of it. Words will never explain what our days at DTHS meant to us.

VOCATIONAL AGRICULTURE Farming is the foundation of American living. Without food, the peoples of this country and other nations could not survive. The farmers of America raise the produce, not only to feed our country, but many other nations as well. America is blessed with rich soil and vast resources, but it is the farmer who tills the soil and obtains from it the benefits which all mankind so richly enjoys. Under the supervision of Mr. Randall Campbell, we boys in the Agriculture Department study to become farmers, for farming takes education as well as manual labor. Here we learn gardening, conser- Vation, crop planning, care of livestock, and many other improved methods of farming. During the year, we put our knowledge to work and participate in county and state farming shows and have come home many times with high honors in both contests. We at Township are quite proud of our Agricul- ture Department and feel that it is an invaluable aid to those of us who are interested in farming. as a vocation.
