V v -C v V A Associate Editor hi 1377, Downers (7rove Community High School was established. The student body was accommodated in a two room structure of dark red brick which is in use today as a part of Lincoln School, housing elementary pupils. In 1394, because of a shortage of space, the school was moved to the north side building which is now a part of Washington School. In 1913, two more rooms were added to the original Lincoln building and the high school student body of III was returned to that location. In 1923, the school was moved to the newly-erected buff brick building on Forest Avenue. At this time there were 350 students enrolled. In 1936, with a student body of 925, an addition to the west end of the first floor was erected which included 14 classrooms and an instrumental music room. Shortly after, in 1933, a new gymnasium and dressing rooms were erected at the west end of the building. In 1955, a two-story west addition was joined to the gymnasium and the original building. 'This housed a new library over the music room, with three classrooms and a vocal music room on the third floor. The total enroll- ment was then 1500. Today 2025 students and 91 faculty members of Downers drove Com- munity High School are accommodated in the remodeled Forest Avenue building and large Main Street addition completed in 1953, with classroom and administration space, a new boys' gymnasium, and a new auditorium. The photographs on this and the opposite page are a pictorial record of the growth of Downers Grove Community High School. ♦ ♦ ♦ THE YEAR OPENED WITH pieasant surprises.

PICKREL M A—University of Nebraska Superintendent of Schools Superintendent of Schools Glenn E. Pickrel, in his two years in the community, has proved himself not only an able administrator, but also a man with a high degree of integrity. Prior to coming to Downers Grove, Mr. Pickrel was Superintendent of the West Side Community Schools, a suburban district of Omaha. Nebraska. He was active in many civic groups of Omaha, and he taught school admin- istration courses at the University of Omaha and at the University of Nebraska. A member of Phi Delta Kappa, the National Educa- tion Association, and the American Association of School Administrators, Mr. Pickrel has improved the curriculum in Downers Grove, added more accelerated classes, and promoted a successful referendum which improved the teachers' salary schedule. Kind and considerate, with a dry sense of humor, Mr. Pickrel has the ability to work in harmony with others and shows respect for the personal dignity of all. The Pickrel Family: Douglas. Mr Pick- rel. Mrs Pickrel Beth', Paul, and Sheila PRINCIPAL CLARENCE W. JOHNSON M.A.—Columbia University Principal Students and faculty alike pay tribute to Mr. Clarence Johnson for the uniformly high standards and progres- sive policies at DCHS. In the thirty-four years he has been associated with our schools, first as a teacher, and since 1931 as principal of the high school, he has established an enviable record as a capable and efficient school administrator. Mr. Johnson directs the high-school administrative staff, supervises the teaching staff, works closely with the department heads to maintain professional standards and an enriched curriculum; and yet, in spite of a heavy schedule, he always finds time to talk with students and teachers who seek his counsel or advice. Needless to say. the school and the community are proud of Mr. Johnson's active participation in state and national educational organizations and, at the same time, appreciate his generous service to civic community life. Mr. Johnson and his wife. Myrtle Charlotte Andersen Herbert L. Adams M.A.—Northwestern M.A.—University of Illinois Assistant Principal and Dean of Girls Dean of Boys ADMINISTRATIVE COUNSELORS The DCHS administrative counselors deserve not only recognition but admiration from the students, teachers, and parents of Downers Grove. It is they who must co- ordinate all of the functions of the academic day and who are responsible for the counseling of students, the conducting of the educational testing program, and the acquainting of future students with DGHS. The administrative counselors arc an indispensable part of the educational system at DGHS and are a credit to the community as well as to the school. Wayne T. Guthrie M.S.—University of Illinois Director of Guidance and Testing Clara R. Searles B.A.—Greeley College Visiting Counselor Dr. Melvin J. Hetland Ed.D.—Columbia Director of Curriculum Dean A. Shinneman M.S.—Northwestern Director of Business Affairs Dr. Charles E. Elmlinger Ed.D.—University of Nebraska Director of Certified Personnel ADMINISTRATIVE ASSISTANTS Three names recognized readily by the students and faculty of DCHS arc those of Dr. Melvin Hetland, Dr. Charles Elmlinger, and Mr. Dean Shinneman. Through their outstanding contributions in their respective posi- tions as Curriculum Director, Personnel Director, and Business Manager, the high caliber of the Downers Crove educational system is maintained. BOARD OF EDUCATION Under the leadership of Chairman Donn Armstrong, the Board of Education completed another year of com- petent school management. The construction of the new building and the inauguration of a new curriculum program, including the addition of many new advanced courses, were among the projects undertaken by the Board.

ENGLISH DEPARTMENT The English Department has a manifold mission in the over all development of high school students. It plays a substantial role in imparting those values epito- mized in the phrase, a liberal education. It tries to help every student grow in his ability to read discriminat- ingly, to speak and write effectively, to listen intelli- gently, and to utilize sources competently: it tries to develop in him a taste for fine literature and a distaste for what is cheap and tawdry; and it tries to help him conceive of the great writings, past and present, as synthesizing forces which combine all learning into one comprehensible pattern.

Illustrative of the increasing importance of mathe- matics is the large percentage of students who take more than the required year of Algebra I or General Mathe- matics. The Math department, headed by Mr. Edward Paine, provides for the gifted student by including accelerated classes in its curriculum. In a program inaugurated this year, select groups of mathematically gifted eighth grad- ers at Puffer. Herrick, and O'Neill junior high schools were offered Algebra I. During their high school years, these students will be offered additional advanced courses not included in the present curriculum. Many students in this accelerated program will go directly into advanced courses in college, and some will receive college credit for this high school work. On March 5. about 100 math students took part in the Annual Mathematical Contest. The three highest scores from DGHS were entered in nation-wide competition. MR. JULIAN M. TAYLO— Athletic Director.

SOCIAL SCIENCE The organization of different economics and govern- ments, the relationship of man to his environment, the struggle for power among nations—all these arc a part of social science. World and American history acquaint students with the rise and fall of ancient and contemporary civiliza- tions and the development of the American cultural heri- tage. The study of the Illinois and federal constitutions takes place in government classes. Economic difficulties and world problems are discussed in the international relations course, and students analyze man and his sur- roundings in sociology classes. The social science courses attempt to promote a better adjusted attitude toward life and its problems. Seated MR. ALDO VESPASIAN CAROZZA. University of Illinois. M A . 3 years; MISS LUELLA E. PAUL.

FINE ARTS FOREIGN LANGUAGE Appreciation as well as techniques and performance is emphasized by the Fine Arts Department in band, orchestra, chorus, and art. Art students enter contests, help paint scenery for plays, and display their handiwork in school. More and better musical concerts have been made possible by the completion of the new auditorium. The ratings of DCHS musicians in the State Music Contest were traditionally high this year. The DCHS Music Department was host to the West Suburban Conference Music Festival held on May 4. Parlez-vous fran(ais? £ I labia Ud. el espaiiol? Dicisne Latinam? Sprechen Sie Dentsch? These sayings, written above in French, Spanish, Latin, and German respectively, arc familiar to the many foreign language students at DCHS. The main objective of the Foreign Language Department, headed by Miss Blanche Howland, is to give the students an appreciation and better understanding of the language. Third year courses have been offered in Spanish and Latin to provide a broader and more practical application of these lan- guages for interested students. FOREICN LANCUACE Seated: MISS LOLA M.

Besides learning and applying sewing and cook- ing skills, the girls gain experience in working to- gether as well as individually. INDUSTRIAL ARTS From unlikely-looking pieces of wood and metal come cutstanding examples of handiwork produced by industrial arts students. The completion of the new metal, electrical, wood, and print shops and the installation of new equipment have enabled the Industrial Arts Department to offer a wider range of electives, including such courses as electric shop, auto mechanics, printing, woodworking, and mechanical drawing.

The new gymnasium is being used by the boys, and the older gymnasium is used by the girls. Six new teachers have joined the department. Special health classes for freshmen and sophomores and first aid for the juniors have been provided. These classes teach the students how to maintain good health and act calmly in case of an emergency. The students are taught techniques to develop skills in such activities as volley- ball, wrestling, basketball, apparatus, tram- poline, modern and folk dancing, baseball, track, and body mechanics. All of these activities give the students opportunity for recreation as well as sportsmanlike competition with their fellow students. MISS IRENE KRAJEWSKI. University of Colorado.

NATURAL SCIENCE Guiding the student through the realm of the sci- ences. the Natural Science Department, headed by Mr. Everett Holt, strives to give him a better understanding and appreciation of science, to provide a sound basis for future studies, and to illustrate the practical applications of science. New to the curriculum this year was a freshman physical science course offered as an alternate to biology. A highly select group of sophomores who exhibited outstanding scientific potential was offered the chemistry course previously open only to upperclassmen. DGHS has kept pace with the national trend to put greater emphasis on the sciences. MR CLIFFORD H. BLATCHLEY. JR.. Texas Western College. BA. 1 year; MR PAUL F. KLUTH. University of Michigan.

BUSINESS EDUCATION The Business Department, headed by Mr. William Corr, instructs students in both the fundamental and advanced business techniques and procedures needed to enter today's business world. On the underclass level, personal typing, general business, and accounting are offered as a basis for further business training. To upper- classmen, Typing I, stenography, economics, office practice, advanced accounting, and commercial law arc offered. The Business Department offers a well rounded variety of courses aimed at preparing students to enter the business world with ease and self-confidence. LIBRARY Reading center, information and fact finding service, and teaching agency—this is the threefold purpose of the library. To the librarians falls the responsibility of effi- ciently maintaining the 12,000 books and 138 periodicals to be found on the library shelves. Supplementing these collections are teaching aids such as pictures, career pamphlets, film strips, recordings, and college bulletins. The library is a beautiful, well arranged area where students may read and do academic research during their free periods and before and after school.

OFFICE STAFF Answering telephones, keeping attendance records, taking dictation, counting money—these are just a few of the dozens of tasks executed daily by the members of the unusually efficient office staff at DCHS. Through their able hands pass program cards, mimeograph stencils, lost fountain pens, transfer slips, locker assignments, college applications, room keys, dollar bills, and four cent stamps. As is the case in any large business, the school could not function smoothly without the office staff. This year, in addition to the traditional junior first aid and freshman health courses, a sophomore course in classroom driver education has been added to the physical education curriculum. This indoor training, extending from three to six weeks, is given by physical education teachers to both boys and girls. After completing the indoor course and receiving a State instruction permit, behind-thc-whccl instruction is offered in the department's three dual-control training automobiles by a staff of well-trained instructors headed by Mr. Frank Riddlcsbcrgcr. The reward for ten weeks of hard work spent in learning to drive is the coveted driver's license. Charlotte J. Hitzeman R.N.—Lutheran Hospital School of Nursing School Nurse 28 OFFICE STAFF MRS.

It is the duty of Student Council dele- gates, who arc elected from each homeroom, to represent the student body in discussing school problems. Senate is comprised of the officers of Student Council and two representatives from each of the four classes. This year the Student Council and Senate have spon- sored a program to enable a DGHS student to spend several months abroad. They raised money for this by sponsoring a mixer, by selling refreshments at the regional basketball tournament, and by sponsoring the faculty basketball game. The three juniors who were finalists in the competition were John Wittekindt, Kathy Saxton, and Vicki Mittlcfchldt. Again this year Student Council sponsored the only complete turnabout dance that is held during the school year. OFFICERS Sue Curry. Corresponding Secretary; Nancy Hector. Recording Secre- tary.

The national debate topic for this year is “Resolved, that the United States should adopt the essential fea- tures of the British educational system. At the close of the debating season, the varsity team was ranked twelfth out of the sixteen Chicago area teams competing in the Metropolitan Debate Union. In addi- tion to these tournament debates, Downers Grove was well represented by both varsity and sub-varsity squads at twelve invitational tournaments. Team members Ken Pilecek and John Poling received speakers medals at the Blue Island Invitational tournament. The varsity squad ended the year by placing seventh out of twenty-four schools participating in a series of debates in conjunction with the State Speech Contest. 39 ■ne Patonq l Beivscf.

To many students it means seeing it all the pictures of them- selves have turned out well, what surprising features have been presented, and how the year has been sum- marized. To the staff members, however, the yearbook means something more. Within the blue and white covers of this, the fortieth edition of the CAULDRON, arc packed many episodes which are not printed or pictured. There are the behind- the-scenes conferences in the publications office during the spring and summer at which time the staff chose the color and design of the book, and became acquainted with the advisors, Mrs. Lois C. Dahl and Mr. Ccorgc B. Pappas. There is the busy click of typewriters, the shifting of picture schedules, the last minute preparations for sending the book to press, and a host of other in- tangibles that belong only to the staff, editors, and advisors. Now that the CAULDRON has finally been distrib- uted, the staff members can breathe a collective sigh of relief—for the completed yearbook has been well worth the hard work spent in producing it.

Shoemaker, have distinguished them- selves nationally as well as locally. Mr. Shoemaker was selected as one of the top band directors in Illinois by First Chair of America, a national yearbook published to honor musical organizations and their directors. The band was also selected for the Illinois section of that book. During the course of the school year, the concert and marching bands provided music at athletic events, par- ticipated in school assemblies, took part in the annual Christmas Concert, and entered the state music contest held this year at Elmhurst, where they won traditionally high honors. At the first of their two concerts, the band was for- tunate in having as a guest conductor, Lt. Col. William F. Santelman, retired musical director of the United States Marine Band, the official band of the President. This famous band was once directed by the immortal March King, John Philip Sousa. 46 EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE Row 1: Linda Sallemi. Marsha Makamul.

The orchestra performs at school plays, the PTA Christmas concert, its two an- nual concerts, and the state music contests—its music a credit to Mr. Svoboda, his enthusiastic musicians, and the student body. Its repertoire covers a wide range of music, including classical, semi-classical, and popular melodics. In addition to teaching the skills of performance on the individual instruments, the organization offers members an opportunity to practice the principles of co- operation necessary to successful group activity.

The A Cappella Choir was rewarded for long hours and tedious work spent on the operetta Brigadoon by the superb production on February 17 and 18. Directed by Miss Barbara Barnes, the production exhibited ex- cellent showmanship and artful stage settings. The choir also participated in the West Suburban Festival Chorus under the direction of Miss Margaret Hillis, director of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra Chorus. The spring concert was presented on two nights, as was the Christ- mas concert, so that everyone enrolled in vocal music could participate. The second night was devoted to a variety show presented by the junior and senior glee clubs. By presenting these concerts and participating in the state music contest, members of the vocal music depart- ment have experienced a rich and rewarding year. A CAPPELLA CHOIR Row I: Linda Foster.

Freshman Attendant After months of careful preparation by the Home- coming Steering Committee under the direction of Mr. William Corr. the big weekend was ushered in by a bonfire, pep rally, and snake dance. The pep and en- thusiasm shown by the students and faculty alike spurred the Trojans on to a triumphant victory over Clenbard. Between the halves of the varsity game the judges awarded first prize to the freshman class for their win- ning float, We Panda Win. The parade included many elaborate floats which constituted many days and nights of hard work. Beneath the star-studded mast of a sunken ship, John Marker and Sue Curry reigned as king and queen of the 1958 Homecoming Dance. Couples danced in the deep purple atmosphere of an enchanted underwater world to the music of Johnny Marlowe's orchestra. The dance was the perfect finale to a memorable homecoming weekend.

Miss Blanche Howland, sometimes shows slides taken during her trips to France and gives informal comments in French. In early December, the entire club met after school to see slides and enjoy a pot luck supper on tables dec- orated with fleur-de-lis and miniature Eiffel Towers. After dinner, songs were sung and the evening closed in an aura of pleasant cheer. GERMAN CLUB Guest speakers, movies, records, folk dancing, singing, plays, and German language games entertained members of Deutscher Klub in their monthly meetings. The club was active in school affairs, entering a float in the homecoming parade. Highlights of the year were the Christmas party and the banquet in the spring. The club was organized to broaden students' knowledge of German customs and culture. FRENCH CLUB Denny Kleidon. Betts Baukcl, Jim Avgeris. Arnold Dicke. Nancy Hayes. 58 GERMAN CLUB Tita White.

Skits written in Spanish and presented by members of the second and third year classes provided the main entertainment for the Spanish banquet held in the spring. LATIN CLUB “Ipsa scientia potesta est : “Knowledge itself is power.” With this as their motto. Latin Club members meet monthly to study education in all countries of the world and the life and customs of the Romans. Student- planned reports and Latin language games helped to create a better understanding and interest in the lan- guage. A new feature this year was the inauguration of a Latin newspaper, Alta Vita.” LATIN CLUB Kneeling: Keith Keller, Audrey Tomera. Sally Schubert Standing Mike Marchiando. George Robertson.

This year the club produced several one-act plays, and also the all-school play. THE LITTLE MINISTER, and the senior play. OUR HEARTS WERE YOUNG AND GAY, which provided theatrical experience for members as well as entertainment for their audiences. For the first time, DGHS was selected to host the Illinois District Speech Contest. On February 21, stu- dents from fourteen schools completed for medals and the chance to participate in the Sectional Contest. Drama Club had one entry in each division of the contest, including a play, THE AMERICAN WAY, by Kaufman and Hart, with a cast of thirty-five. 60 SENIOR MATH CLUB Ken Powell. Carol Bosh. Dave Current. Bill Brownell. Mr Edward Paine MATH CLUBS Topology, the use of the slide rule, and mathematical games and puzzles have been some of the varied subjects explored by math club members this year. To accom- modate students at both advanced and beginning levels, two independent math clubs have been formed. Junior Math Club devoted most of the year to learn- ing the use of the slide rule, while Senior Math Club probed more deeply into the world of mathematics. Af- filiated with Senior Math Club, but not actually a part of it, was a non-credit calculus class which met once a week after school under the instruction of Mr. Edward Paine.

The purpose of this club is to provide its members with a variety of experiences in scientific fields, for future application on the job or in school. Although members worked on individual projects which were displayed at Chicago area science fairs, the main club project was the construction and operation of a ray cabinet which illustrated the effects of radiation. The divisions of the club arc supervised by instructors of the physics and chemistry departments. Providing an outlet for students interested in the biological sciences, Biology Club encouraged members to delve more deeply into the intricacies of zoology and botany. This year the club made several field trips including visits to the Hinsdale Health museum and the Interna- tional Livestock and Horse Show. Members were also encouraged by their sponsor, Miss Louise Killie, to con- centrate on projects in their specific fields of interest. The best of these projects were entered in Chicago area science fairs. 63 BIOLOGY CLU8 Standing Miss Louise Killie. Sarah Anne Cood. Bob Jacot. Dave Link. Chuck Koonz. Bob Saxe. Bill Tyle. Paul Link.

With it went the offer to assist teachers in typing, grading papers, filing, and tutoring. This year for the first time, FTA pins were awarded to students who had made outstanding contributions to the club. Teachers representing different grade levels were guest speakers at a series of meetings at which the theme, Your Career in Teaching, was explored. To girls who are interested in nursing as a profession, the Future Nurses of America organization offers many opportunities to learn more about their chosen field. Registered nurses provide members with practical information; movies help the girls realize the responsibil- ities entailed in nursing; hospital teas better acquaint them with their future surroundings.

This year they have contributed greatly to the activities of the school by helping with sets for various plays and trim- ming the corridors with bright decorations during the Christmas season. CAMERA CLUB By viewing slides and listening to student speakers, Camera Club members learn the proper way to take, develop, print, and enlarge pictures. Under the direc- tion of Mr. Larry Leathers and Mr. Everett Holt, the Hypo-Hounds apply these skills by processing films in the new darkroom. Field trips are made in the spring to photograph subjects of local interest. Seated Richard Esler. Mr Ev- erett Holt. Helen Foosv, Karen Novotny Standing Bob Eggler. Bill Korn- rumpf.

With Mr. Schultz as the club's biggest rooter, chess enthusiasts entered a tournament with Wheaton and Clenbard. Their number of wins showed that DCHS chess players have that special finesse and skill which the game of chess requires. CRIBBAGE CLUB One of the new clubs founded this year at DCHS was the Cribbagc Club. The members have revived interest in a game centuries old. Besides cribbage, card fans learn how to play casino and pinochle. Under the spon- sorship of Mr. Chicoine, Cribbage Club members meet each Wednesday for an afternoon of interesting fun.

The twelve members, directed by Mr. Kluth. build cars at home to bring to run on the club-owned board, specializing in HO gauge trains. The club, called DONUT for Downers Grove-Naper- ville Union Terminal, hopes eventually to model their board after some nationally famous railroad terminal. RADIO CLUB The ever-increasing interest in science sparked by the launching of the Russian Sputnik has served as the incentive to a group of dedicated future scientists who have formed the Radio Club. By maintaining the school radio station, they perform a valuable service to the school as well as gain the experience necessary to earn their amateur radio licenses. 68 Seated Tony Sebek.

SERVICE CLUB LIBRARY AIDES Service Club is different from other school organiza tions in that it holds no meetings, elects no officers, and collects no dues. The Service Club is, nevertheless, one of the most efficient clubs in the school. One division assists counselors by collecting attendance slips and delivering counselors' requests. Another division is made up of the hall monitors, who arc on duty throughout the school day; and a third group are lab assistants, who help in the physics and chemistry classes. This year there are twenty-six Library Aides who assist the three librarians in the new library. There are many jobs that these girls perform—checking library passes, recording loan books, issuing magazines, mending and repairing books, and preparing books to be put on shelves. The Library Aides always look forward to the well-deserved annual banquet in the spring. Row I: Susan Andrews. Suzi Rina Ido. Sue Ahalt Row 2. Janice Ghilardi. Connie Conn.

Their overall record was six games won and fourteen games lost. The Ponies had a good defense and an adequate of- fense, but were hindered by a lack of height which put them at a definite disadvantage under the boards. Al- though the team played many close games, this lack of height often proved to be their downfall.

Jim Zaloudek, (mgr l BASEBALL Carrying on the baseball tradition at DGHS, the 1958 varsity and frosh-soph baseball teams excelled in league competition and stood out as two of the leading teams in the West Suburban Conference. Coach Guy Wellman's varsity team, starting the sea- son slowly, increased the win column as the season pro- gressed. The Trojans employed a good solid hitting attack and an outstanding defense, which, with a good pitching staff enabled them to capture second place in the conference. The high point of the season for the team came when the boys defeated league-leading Maine in a close game, five to four. At the close of the season. Bud Schoenberg, catcher; Dave Marvin, outfielder; and Ken Lutgens, outfielder-pitcher; were chosen to the all- conference team. Coach Warren Holbrook's Ponies had a good pitching staff which was backed by a solid hitting attack and a strong defense. With an overall season record of five victories and five defeats, the Ponies finished in third place in the West Suburban Conference.

Strengthened through four years of close co-operation in all phases of high school life, the bond between the seniors and their alma mater can never be broken. In the fields of academics, the fine arts, athletics, and social events, we have achieved recognition worthy of our school. The 1958 Homecoming on October 18 officially began our work as seniors. We planned and executed the Winter Formal, Silver Silhouettes, which was held at the Nine- teenth Century Club in Oak Park on January 2. In February we performed the operetta Briga- doon,” and concluded our social activities with a memorable Senior Prom. Commencement on June 4 climaxed our corporate efforts as seniors, and served as a final assembly for the class of 1959.

HAMMETT The senior class suffered a great loss with the death of John Hammett on July 5. 1958. The remembrances we all have of John are varied: some think of a football player, one of the strongest boys in school; some think of a conscientious, considerate son; some think of a student who spilled ink on a physics teacher's gradebook; and some think of the musician with the record col- lection. who was always glad to talk about Bix Beiderbecke. All of these facets comprised the per- sonality we knew as John, a very real part of the class of 1959. BARBARA J. STICH With the death of Barbara Stich on January 10. 1959. the senior class suffered another tragic loss. During her high-school career, Barbara was a member of Y-Teens and was also an active participant in Bit and Spur and FHA. Barbara is well remembered by her friends as a girl with a radiant smile and efferves- cent personality, another real part of the class of 1959. 28 THE CLASS Friendliness, boundless energy, and school spirit are the main characteristics of the junior class. In athletics, they have distributed their talents gener- ously both on the field and in the stands. Con- sistently well-represented on the honor roll, the juniors further demonstrated their scholastic ability on the University of Illinois aptitude tests. The class election provided the juniors with able leaders. Successful events under the guidance of Miss Fronk, Miss Greenlee, and Mr. Corr included the Junior Dance, participation in Career Day and Col- lege Night, and the construction of the junior class Homecoming float. D.G. V-Day. One of the biggest events of the year for the juniors was the selection of their class rings. THE OFFICERS President Dick Perkins, a member of Student Council as well as an active participant in football, basketball, and baseball, has maintained a 6 aver- age through his three years at DGHS. Vice President Bill Miller, while preserving an A- grade average, has been active in the basketball and baseball teams and Student Council. Secretary Joan Keough has been active in Leader's Club, GAA. Student Senate, the Honor Pep group, and Y-Tecns, where she is vice presi- dent; and has maintained a B grade average. Treasurer Lee Plate, who was elected as the result of a write-in vote, is an active member of band and Spanish Club, and has also maintained a B grade average. 129 Juniors ABBOTT. RON ADKINS.
