DOWNERS GROVE HIGH SCHOOL DOWNERS GROVE, ILLINOIS Volume 34 4 THROUGH THESE PORTALS PASS . . ion taily in September, 1949, we became awaie of the interest- ing and vaiied menu of our school. The beautiful campus, pleasing to the most critical eye, the well-balanced curriculum, satisfying every student's need, and the many extra-curricular activities, de- veloping leadership and character in our student body, impressed us almost immediately as being outstanding. Since that day of enlightenment, however, each one of us has taken advantage of these opportunities to a slightly different degree. Similarly, the list of foods on the familiar black and white menu in our cafeteria would mean nothing if we had no cafeteria staff to buy, to wash, and to cook the foods Out good chefs have not been content merely to cook the same foods in the old ways, but have strived to vary the menu and to find new recipes for the fav- orite dishes. In recognition of the important part that they play in our school, we, the Class of 1953, dedicate this Cauldron to them, out cooks. 5 a euvres 7 V We g t up one morning a year ago with great expectations for tho coming day. We well knew many of the basic foods which we would eat and enjoy, but we were not yet aware of all the little delicaetes that were also to be a part of out daily bread.” Wo nave enjoyed our day at school. We have profited a great deal from our studies, the basic foods, but we have not limited oursc|ves to those alone. Our appetites demanded a balanced diet, tarid extra-curricular activities served well for out fruits and vegetables. For dessert we experienced the many final activities of OU staV in high school—the prom, class night, and graduation. As.;the-Class of 1953 sets out to taste some new foods from differant pFgces, it is their hope that succeeding classes will use the mdjny ingredients at their disposal to make an even more nutri- tious ftet for themselves and for posterity.

Gregory, Mis. Dickson, Mi. Sallemi, Mi Elzay All the foods that we have digested in high school have come indirectly from master dietitians, our administrative staff. Mr. Jack Elzay, Superintendent of Schools, and Mr. Clarence Johnson, Prin- cipal, have supervised and maintained the general school policies determined by the Board of Education. It is the duty of Mrs. Charlotte Andersen, Assistant Prin- cipal and Dean of Girls, and Mr. Wayne Guthrie,Dean of Boys, to organize and co- ordinate the various activities in the school as outlined by the Board. A new addi- tion to the staff was Mr. J. M. Lewis, Director of Business Affairs. The administrative staff has directed our thinking in more ways than we perhaps realize, and it may be many years before we fully recognize the wisdom of its guid- ance.

P-D.Jl. a MIC Through discussions and projects, the Parent- Teachers Association has continued to promote education and guidance of young people. Again this year, the P-T.A. sponsored Chest X-rays for students and an Open House for parents. New on their menu was the encouragement of a Future Teachers of America Club at High School. By contributing to scholarship funds the P-T.A. hopes to arouse an interest in the field of teaching. Whether it be to counteract an upset stom- ach, bandage a cut finger, or ease a headache, students and faculty members are always sure of competent and ready assistance from the Clinic. While clinic assistants are mainly concerned with treating common ailments and recording the day’s happenings. Miss Beck is called upon whenever a more serious development arises. Seated—C.

Such things as bar-be-cues, creamed chicken, and as- sorted pies have made this restaurant locally famous. The fine group of men who made up our staff of custodians could have been found working at many different jobs during the course of the day. They had to be jacks-of-all-trades. Be- cause of their diligence and untiring efforts, we can be proud of our school and campus. Row I — I Lcveienz, f Staffeldt, L. Mambel, B Fiedeiickson Row 2— I Rich, R. Waggoner, K Cailson, G.

McCollum T Rolando, H McLaughlin Standing—D Dvorak ScLot C The chief ingredients in the 1952-53 Student Council were Carl McCollum, president; Tom Rolando, vice-president, Harry McLaughlin, secretary, and Dave Dvorak, treasurer. This group had many more duties than most students realize. Among the lesser known of these were those of conducting visitors through the school, choosing the cheerleaders, and ap- proving all new clubs which are formed at D.G.H.S. In the spring when the eighth grade students arrived for their testing program, the Council members were called upon to act as guides. Representatives from the group attended the West Suburban League Conference, held at Glenbard, and the district meeting, held at Arlington Heights. At these meetings they were able to compare notes with other school councils in this area. Thus they returned better gualified to carry out their duties. Once again the Council played host and hostesses at the P-T.A. Open House and College Night. These were the only occasions during the year on which a large number of parents visited the school. Another annual project of the Council was that of sponsoring the Freshman Party and the Turn-About Dance. Upon its adjournment in the spring, the Coun- cil had completed one of the finest terms in its twenty-two years of existence.

The sophomores had a stored-up amount of pep and energy that exploded at the beginning of the year and canied them through their second year in high school with record achievements in all fields. Academically speaking, the sophomores were hard to boat. A glance at the honor roll would suffice to prove that statement. In regard to athletics an unusually keen interest in sports was shared by members of the sophomore class, boys and girls alike. Members of the sophomore class also found time to participate in the All-School Play and Carnival, as well as to become an integral part of various high school clubs. The social graces of the sophomore class were proved by an eventful Sophomore Party. A class with such drive and enthusiasm is bound to go places fast—as next year will show.

This year has brought many new experiences to these master chefs. The varsity teams felt the very great addition of 1954's enthusiastic athletes, as did the many clubs and the honor roll. While the boys were out on the practice field, the girls were busily taking part in G.A.A. and Y-Teens. Carnival, the All-School Play, and other activities called many industrious workers. With their counselors. Miss Betty Lee Chess- man and Mr. Herbert Adams, the juniors selected their rings, took the University of Illinois tests, and sponsored the prom. The tests are given to members of the junior class each year to measure their scholastic abilities. This year the class showed particularly high aptitude in the many and varied divisions of the examination. Prom was an especially ex- citing experience for this enterprising class. The affair was their first teal taste of upperclassman social activities. Held this year at the Mi. Campbell explains the finer points of a Wheatstone Bridge LaSalle Hotel, the dance was well attended by the students and their guests. The class held its election late in January with these results: president, Tom Rolando; vice- president, Nancy Viereg,- secretary, Carolyn Fettig; and treasurer, Dan Kinter. The Class of 1953 wishes to thank the juniors for all their help and express sincere confidence that they will well fulfill their responsibilities as seniors.

This year there was no Language Club Dance, but the Spanish Clubs thoroughly enjoyed their classroom meetings. The students saw interest- ing slides, and enjoyed looking over postal caids that Miss Howland brought back from her recent trip to Spain. Another activity of the Spanish Clubs was the sponsoring of the cloakroom at the Carnival. During the French Club meetings. Miss How- land showed her slides of picturesque France. The groups also spent time looking through copies of Realites or French newspapers. The successful LE PETIT CAFE DE BRETAGNE at the Carnival was another project of the French Clubs. Learning new German songs, recording voices, and having spelling bees were but a few of the activities of this year’s German Clubs under the supervision of Mr. Maas. The Clubs also drafted a constitution which was transposed into German and then memorized by every Club member. The Latin Clubs contributed to the success of the Carnival by sponsoring a booth in the gym. As usual, the Clubs, guided by Mrs. Cleveland and Miss Chessman, prepared and enjoyed the Roman Banquet, the climax of the year's ac- tivities. FRENCH CLUB P. Alms, D. Thompson, S. Virgil, J.

The first was providing operators for the motion pictures shown in the classes and for the public address system. The second svas giving the members experience in operating all types of projection and public address equipment. Two awards were given at the end of the year —an emblem when a student had earned fifty hour points and a letter when he had earned 250 additional hours. This year, both officers and members were again striving to give even better service to the school. “All right, boys, put that tree over here. Commands such as this were not uncommon among the unlauded members of the stage crew, which was directed by Mr. Lage. Without the help of these workers, no play or activity could have been produced by students. The crew was always on hand when needed to move scenery, pull curtains, and care for the lights. Often they actually had to construct props to fill the individual needs of the various activities. The student body would like to extend a heartfelt vote of thanks to the faithful members of this group. Row 1—I) Bunting, J. Learmontli, Mi Logo, D. Leitlu ;m, J Wilde Row 2—B. Egncr, A Houser, G.

No doubl if it is the latter you will at sometime in your high school career come in conflict with a counsellor. The tasl of delivering you the bill of fate belongs to a member of the Service Club. Students who have sacrificed their study halls have jobs ranging from running errands, issuing pass slips, and answering the phone. However, all worl and no play did not pertain to these students as time-out was taken for various parties. Although these members received no recog- nition, they certainly deserve everyone’s ap- praisal. J Thank you, whether in gratifying voice or or only in thought, was given by everyone to the students who gave up their study halls to work in the library. Besides doing general work among the food for thought, the aides held social potluck suppers in the library. The theme of the library aides, Service to students and faculty , was exemplified by their willingness and co-operation in issuing books and keeping loan records. Whether book- worms or playboys , the library aides showed much interest in their service. Officers for this year were Arnie Besser, presi- dent; Bobby Jo Spencer, vice president; and Ronnie Billingsley, secretary-treasurer. Their sponsor was Miss Nolzke.

As a result of their performance both boys were chosen to represent Downers on the All-Con- ference team. Carl McCollum and Pete King were elected co-captains of the team.

Lot s have Yeah Varsity and 7 Rahs! Sounded like the end of another game, but whether the Trojans won or lost, our cheer- leaders were always faithfully doing their job. With the assistance of Pep Club, the girls taught the student body new cheers and helped greatly to increase school spirit. Under the guidance of Miss Krajewski, the squad strove for the best audience response possible. Because the team lacked depth it won only two of its seven encounters. In the West Subur- ban Conference Cross Country Meet, the har- riers placed eighth. Frank Belleiive and Fred Barnes could always be counted on to run a good race. Ralph Thompson, Denny Woehrel, Dick Johnson, and Bernie DeGuzman also gave strong support to the team. Coach Ingles has encouragement fiom Baines and DeGuzman in forming a better squad next year.

With more height and speed the team could have turned its close games into victories. Scoring honors were held by Carl McCollum, Ron Billingsley, and Don Extrom. The free throw trophy was captured by Tom Rolando with his very high percentage. In his first year at Downers, Coach Wellman did an outstanding job working with the team.

The latter beat the Trojan ponies on their own court by a close score of 45 to 43 in the final conference game of the year. It was the first time in the history of the Downers frosh-soph that they finished so high in the standings, which made up for the fact that they had to share honors. The season was highlighted by two over time battles, one against Hinsdale and the other against La- Grange. The team had close control of the boards with Tom Dr ink water and Fritz Brotherton; Ron Baukol provided the scoring punch. Baukol was honored by being moved up to the varsity when the conference season was ended.

Returning lettermen Tom Charlton, Dick Capps, and Russ Fister kept this enthusiasm alive with their superior playing. By placing third in the conference standing last year, the frosh-soph team also drew much attention on tennis. The fine coaching of Mr. Carstens gave the team added spirit. The several returning lettermen from last year's district champion and state tournament team formed the nucleus of a strong Trojan golf squad The team had more meets this year than in previous years, and played its home rounds at Woodridge Country Club. The players worked hard and with their additional experience they completed a most successful season. Mr. Garri- gan did an excellent job as coach. GOLF Row 1—B DeLuryea, G.

To start the season right Fister pitched his first no-hitter of the year in the opening game against LaGrange. As a result of continued good pitching, the team also won its next four games.

In the first dual meet of the year the Trojans were defeated at the hands of Arlington Heights by a margin of three points. In the Wheaton Relays, Downers finished sixth among the twenty- five competing schools. The team lost the Little Four Meet for the first time in six years. De- fending their title at the Hinsdale Relays, the Trojans came in fourth With eighteen schools entered in the District Meet, Downers dropped to fifth place, but salvaged third place in the County Meet. In the main event of the season, the West Suburban Conference Track Meet, Downers man- aged to place fourth, Fiedler and Zagol were the old stand-bys in the shot-put and discuss, and finished in the top bracket. Pepich finished second in the mile run. Biown and Hibnet showed up well in the high jump, and Dee took top honors in the pole vault. Participat- ing in the State Meet at Urbana were Brown, Dee, Fiedler, Pepish, and Zagol. To summarize Up and over. the season, depth was badly needed in the hurdles and dashes, but the weight and distance events were well balanced. The frosh-soph team was successful in two of the three dual meets. The boys were most successful in the hurdles and weights.

Editor-in-chief, Paul Melichar, gave the “go signal and soon oui business managers were planning a campaign which served as an “ap- petizer while the book took shape. Preparation for the basic ingredients of stories and pictures was undertaken by the literary staff and photographer. This year the staff chose to have an original cover, so our art editoi tried several recipes until she produced a specialty to everyone’s taste.

It was new and different in that there was no specific theme, advertising was added to cover the cost of printing, and pictures of contributors accompanied the stories. And, just as a salad is chuck-full of vitamins, Trojan was chuck-full of rhymes, limericks, poerty, drama, and humor. Trojan, the high school literary magazine, was sold on an installment plan. No selling was done in the school halls, but a representa- • tive was appointed in each English class to collect the money for each installment. This publication offered students with literary and creative ability the opportunity to have their work published. The literary board dis- cussed and analyzed the manuscripts submitted— selections were made before the names of the writers were known to the staff. This system allowed selection to be based solely upon the merits of the work submitted. Once again Trojan was in the hands of a qualified and able literary, business, and art staff, headed by Joyce Burns and Chuck Schen- kenberger as co-editors. Jo Ann Hostettler and Nina Pence were co-chairmen of the business staff, which did a fine job of promoting sales and handling finances. Carl Schneider and Mary Thomason were co- chairmen of the art staff. This staff was respon- sible for the attractive cover and the interesting sketches and humoious cartoons. The capable advisors were Mr. Pappas, Literary and Busi- ness advisor, and Miss Dickson, Art advisor. Row 1—Miss Dickson, L Rossiter, J Hostettler, N Pence, J Bums, C Schenkenbetger, M Thomason, C.

The club, under the guidance of Mr. Garri- gan and Mr Taylo, sponsored the D” Club Dance, which was held on February 21 Numeral and letter winners, cheerleaders, and members of Pep Club each received one ticket to the dance. In early spring, all the boys who had re- ceived letters in sports, who were in the upper one-third of their class, and who had a grade point average of 2.5 were entitled to member- ship in the National Athletic Scholarship Society.

Full-fledged membership could not be obtained until 20 points were earned by participating in club activities. The first big project of the year was the crea- tion of a nite club for the Carnival. The Colonial Inn” attracted many adults as well as students, by its authentic furnishings and en- joyable program. After entertaining others. Drama Club mem- bers took a vacation by attending the play Point of No Return”, during February The next month brought a return to work attitude. The amateurs selected, auditioned, re- hearsed, directed, and produced two one-act plays, which were presented for two most ap- preciative student assemblies. Concluding the year's activities were the tra- ditional initiation ceremony and picnic at Fullers- burg. The competent people leading the organiza- tion were: Nancy Stephens, Joan Stanton. Nancy Wetmore, Sara Virgil, and Chickie Hooten. Row 1—C. Tobey, J Bradley, J. Krmgs, P. Eby, S Virgil, N Wetmore, Mrs. Kotel, N. Stephens, J. Stanton, C Hooton, J Smith, N.

The long hours of rehearsal had paid off. Since the success of a play depends heavily upon the people behind the scenes, much credit for the production must be attributed to directress, Mrs. Katel; her assistant, Mr. Schuermann,- and stage man- ager Nma Pence. Not to be forgotten are Mi. Lage and his stage crew, for without theii co-operation, the play never could have been presented. CAST Joe Pendleton . .

In ordet to be eligible for membership in the club, a student must have had at least a year's work in a commercial subject, such as shorthand or typing. Interesting programs, planned by monthly committees, were presented at the meetings Several times visitors gave the club a taste of the business world by various talks. Officers for this year were: Carol Rtige, presi- dent; Joyce Cunningham, vice-president; Mary Peters, secretary; and Joyce Burns, treasurer. This past year, the Art Club successfully car- ried out several big projects under the direction of Miss Velma Dickson. Largest of all these projects was the Carnival booth at which the members sold stationery, pennants, and pin-up boards. At Christmastime, the Club members made or- naments for the trees at school and for their own trees at home. Dining the holidays, the members also enjoyed the parties sponsored by the Club Directors of all these projects were Norman Drapelick, president; Steve Kushner, vice-presi- dent, Ann Sallemi, secretary.

This big-little sister relationship was only one of the activities carried out in Y-Teens under the leadership of the Cabinet and under the guidance of Miss Fronk and Mrs. McPheeters. A picnic at Gilbert Park properly orientated the year. Next on the agenda was the Big and Little Sistei Tea. New members were initiated in a candle-light ceremony followed by a supper in the cafeteria. Highlights of the next event, Father-Daughter Night, were mixers and square dancing. The annual Hi-Y-Y-Teens dance was the opening event of the second semester. Later on in the spring, the biq fashion news was the spring style show produced by Charm Club. With the conclusion of the year's activities, new officers were installed and active members were rewarded for their services at the Mother- Daughter Tea. Through the experience gained in working and contributing to Y-Teens piojects, the girls can uphold the high standards of the organi- zation. Harmony Hoppers Y-TEENS CABINET On Floor—C. Ingles, A.

JUj As a member of Hi-Tti Council, which includes La Grange, Riveiside, and Downers Grove, our local Hi-Y completed a very successful year under the guidance of Mi Guthrie and Mi. Campbell. Presidents of Junior-Senior and Frosh- Soph clubs, respectively, were Dick Green and Ron Baukol. Downers Grove played host to the Hi-Tri Council Rally in November. Club members also joined other active high school youth in a Good Government project sponsored by the Y.M.C.A Hi-Y again sold hot dogs and soft drinks at home football games, thereby contributing Si 00 to the World Youth Fund. Other local Hi-Y activities included the presentation of a Science Show at this year’s Carnival and the co-sponsor- ship of the annual February Hi-Y-Y-Teen Dance.

Upholding last year's reputation had been quite a tasl —and one which the group has fulfilled nobly. Under the able direction of Mr. John Svoboda, the musicians played for the All-School and Senior Plays, the annual P-T.A. Christmas Con- cert, and the Carnival vaudeville show—to name only a few. The group held its two annual concerts in January and April. Because of the increase in personnel, the orchestra was able to study a great variety of music this year. Some of the major works played were Rodgers and Hart’s Blue Moon, Tschai- kowsky’s Danse Arabe , Benjamin’s Jamai- can Rumba , and Grofe's On the Trail from the Grand Canyon Suite. Five soloists, one duet, and one string quartet entered the district contest which was on the menu here at D.G.H.S. this year The biggest event of the year came in May, when Mr Svoboda took the ambitious musicians to Peoria for their second state contest. The numbers the orchestra played at the contest this year were Offenbach s Orpheus in det Under welt”,- Introduction to Act III of Lohengrin by Wagner,- and a string number, Tschaikowsky s Andante Cantabile. In additron to conducting the full orchestra, Mr. Svoboda also held classes after school for beginners on stringed instruments. In this way he was able to further increase the interest and participation in the orchestra. The growing organization now has fifty-two members and—in the last two years—has reached a noteworthy position in the music department In the future, Downers High hopes to see a one hundred fifty piece orchestra giving concerts on the auditorium stage.

Planning and performing a large poiticn of the musical ptogiams of the year aie tasks which annually fall to Mr Pohlniann and his A Cappclla choir. The Armistice Day, Christmas, and Senior Recognition assemblies were again highlighted by the choir. Other special school functions foi which the choir provided music weie the Carnival, Baccalaureate, and Com- mencement. The group also carefully prepared for many outside engagements, such as per- forming for local civic groups. The climax of the season was reached in May, when, under Mr. Pohlmann's able direc- tion, the A Cappella choir gave its annual Spring Conceit. Music is a form of recreation which anyone can and should enjoy. The value of singing in the choir cannot be disputed and each member gains the realization that he is an important part of the group. One of the training groups for the A Cap- pella choir in our high school is the B” A Cappella. Although its members perform pub- licly only once each year, they gain the neces- sary musical knowledge for entrance in the A Cappella choir In addition to singing the same music as does the A Cappella the B” A Cappella practices sight-reading and studies the basic principles of harmony and proper voice pioduction. The high point of the year for the “B' A Cappella came dining the Chiistmas season when it joined the other choruses in order to help present the annual P.T.A. Christmas Concert. The mixed chorus the third vocal organiza- tion at Downers Grove High School, also takes part in the Christmas Concert. It is in this group that students get their first high-school experi- ence in the four-part harmony. Row 1—J. Bradley, A Kuebler, N. Key, A Rogers, J. Bowles, N Wills, S. Eickhoff Row 2—J.

This organization played at the Armistice Day and the Chiistmas Programs. Two con- certs were given on February 8 and March 29 respectively. An exchange assembly was presented by the band at Maine Township High School. This assembly was greatly enjoyed by all present. In March vaiious soloists and members of ensembles entered the district band contest held at Downers Grove. Those who won went on to the state contest at Peona. The Band Awards assembly was held in the spiing. At Senior Recognition and Commencement the band once again provided music. Under the baton of Mr. Shocmakei, members of the band completed a full-course year. 64 Row 1—A Sallomi, ( Hoffmann, C. Wilhelm, f Sallemi, C Whitlock, D Arndt. Row 2—I Lehmann T Schloegel, C.

( 9 CUP WINNER Shirley Oldham Airanging the meetings and carrying out the many and varied activities of G.A.A. this past year, kept the fifteen girls comprising the G.A.A. board very busy. The board, under the able direction of Mrs. Haberman, enjoyed a very success- ful year. With Shirley Oldham, president; Nancy Viereg, vice-president; Barbara Meyers, secretary,- and Dolores Lekovish, treasurer,- the members of the board planned and di- rected the many activities of the club. These ranged from the picnic in September and the speedball tournament in October, to the semi-formal dance in April and the Awards Night in May. The ever-growing Leaders’ Club, under the supervision of Miss Krajewski, again took up the task of refereeing after school sports and helping with gym classes. The Trainees were the girls who aspired to become Leaders. The strict training pro- gram which the girls followed required that they know the rules and regulations of all the different games as well as the duties expected of a leader. This past year, as always, G.A.A. mem- bers were able to enjoy a variety of after school sports. In the fall the girls rallied to the call of speedball, tennis, and archery. The speedball tournament proved to be a real thriller, and the finish found Carole Faulhaber s senior team contend- ing with Mary Kehoe’s sophomore team for first place. The game ended in a 3-3 tie, and it had to be played over in order to decide a winner. The seniors were victorious. During the winter, the bowling and bas- ketball tournaments held the top spot in interest Bowling, which celebrated its second birthday as a G.A.A. activity, proved to be even more successful this past year. The basketball tourney was played as a double elimination contest, as usual. Lei's play speedball Before the game. G.A.A Initiation The G.A.A. Archers Volleyball teamwork. When spring came, it found tennis bacl along with volleyball. After a year's ab- sence softball returned to conclude the sports activities. It was the duty of Marilyn Hayden, as sports chairman, and Marilyn Pollack, as assistant sports chairman, to prepare and manage the sports program of G.A.A. Initiation for new members was held on February 20, and consisted of a formal ceremony held in the auditorium, followed by a very informal trip through the girls’ locker room. The most important event on the G.A.A. calendar was the semi-formal dance which was held in April Jane Armstrong, as social chairman, had complete charge of the dance. She and her various committees transformed the gym into a candy land. Every member was expected to help with some part of the annual dance. The gym program and the G.A.A. sports program fit together inasmuch as the same sport was played at the same time. How- ever, during the second semester, the junior girls found their gym work inter- rupted when they had to take the required first aid course. They learned how to make splints and how to distinguish between the various symptoms of different diseases. The senior girls, meanwhile, took the required home nursing course. In this course, the seniors were supposed to learn how to make a patient at home comfort- able as well as how to perform the duties of a home nurse. The juniors also had the opportunity to participate in the modern dance program, under the direction of Mrs. Haberman, instead of taking a regular gym course.

Led by theii officers, Maicia Mossier, Dick Green, and Myrtle Maidlow, this new organization laid an excellent foundation for the years to come. Under the direction of Mrs. Dahl, the Stamp and Coin Club offered members a wonderful chance to enlarge and improve their collections. Meetings were devoted to lectures by advanced philatelists and to trading sessions among the collectors. Officers of the club were Dick Capps, Jean- nette Willis, and Joanne Hcstettler. Row 1—K.

Good Citi- zenship Award was Charlene Crow, who was also president of the senior class. Runners-up in the election were Jane Armstrong and Judie Bowles. Ihe three candidates were chosen on the basis of dependability, service, patriotism, and leadership through a vote of the senior class. The final decision of the most deserving girl was made by the members of the teaching staff. With a fast-moving, somewhat fantastic com- edy, the 1953 seniors gave their last dramatic performance. Mr. Barry’s Etchings provided an excellent script for a large cast who could easily come forth with the story’s high wit and humor. Following the try-outs, which were held in Match, the chosen seniors borrowed time from their many activities to rehearse, as well as perfect their lines. The play was presented on May 7 and 8.

From this list the faculty chose the fifteen per cent who they felt were outstanding in character, leadership, and service. When a senior received his Golden Torch emblem of the National Honor Society, he realized that it was his duty to help lead the world in the days to come Membership in Quill and Scroll was an honor given to seniors who had done superior work on Cauldron, High Life of Troian. Each student must have also been among the upper third of his class and have had the recommen- dation of the advisor of the publication and the approval of the Society’s Executive Secretary. Those elected to Quill and Scroll were recog- nized at the annual awards assembly in May.

Ciawley Although the departing class of 1953 has finished its last bountiful meal at D.G.H.S., a fond taste will long remain of the good and valuable times that we experienced during our high school career. We here remember our very first toste of high school, which was met with a mixture of eagerness and apprehensiveness. But soon our appetite was whetted end increased accordingly, as many new and varied courses were offered to us. And before one could say Little Jack Horner, we had our fingers in every avail- able pie. Such extra-curricular activities as athletics, clubs, school publications, and D.G.H.S. Car- nival have held our interest and inspired our best efforts during these past four years. Nor have our studies been neglected, as is proved by the fine scholastic record set by our class. One of the achievements of which we, the members of the graduating class of 1953, are proud is the overwhelming response to and suc- cess of the Winter Formal, held at the Oh Henry Ballroom on December 29. The dance, which was appropriately entitled Mistletoe Mist, was the first of its kind to be held out of Downers Grove. Its success was a result of the co-opera- tion and effort extended by both the girls and boys of the senior class. Thus a new precedent was established as the Winter Formal was taken out of this town. An even greater highlight of the year for us seniors, especially, was the Junior-Senior Prom, which was held at the LaSalle Hotel in Chicago on May 23. Dancing, refreshments, entertainment, and other gala activities related to the Prom left much food for thought to be remembered for many years. Thus the class of '53 concluded a very event- ful four years, made so by the many activities in which we participated and the spirit in which we did so. During our lost and most mean- ingful year, we were led by Charlene Crow, pres- ident; Keith Ebersold, vice-president; Judie Bowles, secretary,- and Ccrole Crawley, treas- urer. As we leave the halls and rooms that have nurtured us in the past, we fully realize that we have thus been well-prepcred for the future and whatever it may bring.
