Jrere President, Glenn Rosbrook; Secretary-Treasurer, Gary Reeder, Vice President, Dave Thomos. September of 1952! Charging down that familiar noisy hall wasn't so routine then,- the study halls looked so immense, and we know- ingly laughed off that time-worn advice to take the elevator'' to fourth! Our first year we met the trials and hectic last-minute scrambles for purple crepe paper in making Homecoming floats and looked in awe at the upperclassmen then elected Jim Schroeder our president; Dave Thomas, vice-president; and Dick Thomas, sec- retary-treasurer. Once we got our bearings as sophomores, it didn't take us long to discover band, sports, choruses, G.A A., ten easy (?) ways to make the honor roll, and that there were thousands of holes to be counted in the study hall ceilings! Election returns proclaimed Kay Lund to be our president; Glenn Rosbrook, vice-president; and Larry Brown, secretary-treasurer. As lower upperclassmen we suddenly headed straight for the harassed ranks of the Dixini staff or were stagestruck and landed backstage on a crew, working hard toward Quill and Scroll or Thesoians. With members of our class now fill- ing the ranks in varsity teams, we loyally cheered ourselves hoarse at football games! We selec- ed Helen Fox, president; Larry Brown, vice- president; and Janice Rutherford, secretary- treasurer for our class officers and were repre- sented by Barbara Maloney at Girls’ State As juniors, we put on the annual all-school party and planned excitedly for our first prom, Roman Holiday” Flying High” as seniors, we elected Bud Rosbrook, Dave Thomas, and Gary Reeder as our class officers and began our jinx-breaking sports season (even leading the NCIC basketball tour- nament!), chose Joyce Kelly to be Homecoming queen with Georgiana Stiles and Barbara Fane as her attendants, and proudly cheered our be- loved marching band on its fourth straight victory at Illinois Normal! We devoured the Dixini, headed by Jackie Whitmer and Helen Fox, planned the first DHS Student Council, and eagerly awaited the Dixonian, co-edited by Barbara Maloney and Kay Lund, who received the DAR award. Minus the times we forgot the English quiz on Monday or had to go to the board in math, it felt funny to take the last test, sit in the last class, and close that locker with such a stubborn combination for the last time We’ve moaned a little laughed a lot! Now—on to a new world! 20
