- . - i I I '(I . I '. I aa Ication The Senior Class proudly dedicates the 1961 edition of the CAVALCADE to one who is more than worthy. His benevolence and devoted interest to us as students have encouraged us; his com- petence as a friend, teacher, and coun- selor has challenged us; his guidance and understanding of our problems have been beneficial to everyone; and his example of noble character has left the impression in our minds of what a won- derful person really is. So, to show our appreciation for these worthy efforts, we feel quite privileged in honoring MR. DEAN WALLACE with this dedication. Proper guidance qualifies us to take our places in life. 2 able e] ( ontentA o4dn ini tration and faculty.................5 sSeniord......................7 junior ......................23 iSopkovnored.................31 J-redlxnxen.................37 iyUtlx tirade...............41 cAc tivitied.................45 c tUietic4...................63 4dvertiden entA.............76 foreword Enter with us into a land of enchantment, where every footstep through these magic halls brings us closer to the realization of our dreams; where every'experience is an adventure which leads to knowledge.

Three experienced ladies, who would later come to mean a great deal to them, met these youngsters that first day on deck a ship called Drexel Elementary School. The names, Mrs. Huffman, Mrs. Hunter, and Mrs. Hallyburton now seem very familiar to these young people who are now seniors. At first, all the children wanted to be placed in Mrs. Huffman's room because she had the most toys and games to play with. But those placed in the other two rooms found that their teachers had things to play with also. These students can still remember Alice, Jerry, Dick, Jane, Spot, and Puff, along with the highlight of the first grade, their first train ride. In the second year, these tourists learned how to write and had their first spelling books. That year, the teachers spent much time with their students in the woods below the school building, sight-seeing and observing the ways of nature. During the third year of their travels, they began learning about fractions. By the end of the term, everyone had gotten to know the rest of the other tourists very well. In the fourth and fifth years of their trip, new and interesting subjects were learned and the teachers began giving quite a bit ofwhat they called homework. That's about the first thing the tourists found wrong on their voyage. During this part of the trip all the tourists looked forward to the annual talent shows which included songs such as Let Me Call You Sweetheart and School Days, and fashion shows featuring boys dressed as girls. (Very educational, don't you think?) Our tourists have now reached the half-way mark. The rest of the trip will seem to pass twice as fast as the first part. About all the tourists did in the seventh and eighth years of their trip was to have a good time. . . and there were some good ones! Their teachers those years tried extremely hard to teach them something, and they probably did. Well, just a little, anyway. With the conclusion of the eighth grade came graduation. There was no time for tears, for it was now time for our tourists to board a different ship, Drexel High School. For various reasons, there are now 33 less tourists than when the trip began 4 years ago. The new ship proved to be much more interesting than the other one. There were many more things to do, more sports, clubs, and other activities for everybody, and in the new ship the tourists enjoyed more freedom. It would be difficult to tell about all the activities on board, since each passenger participated indifferent things; but to name a few, there were football, basketball, baseball games, track meets, homecoming activities, pep rallies, weekly chapel pro- grams, class elections, band trips, club meetings, debates, Beta Club andF.H.A. initiations, boys making All-Con- ference, concerts, featuring the band and glee club, unexpected callings to the auditorium for lectures, parties among clubs and school friends; and, of course, Thanksgiving, Christmas, and spring vacations, along with vacations caused by those beautiful white flakes. In the center of these activities, Bennett Baird, Jerry Adkins, Kay Baker, Randy Hensley, and Barbara Lancaster seemed to hear distant calling, but the things they did to make the trip more enjoyable will forever remain in the hearts of those still aboard. Now the ship is reaching another harbor. Here awaitmany new ships called College, Marriage, Armed Services, and various ships of Occupations. We see many of our fellow passengers boarding these different ships and to them we wish a happy Bon Voyage and may our ships meet again at the home port of Drexel. We would like to express our appreciation to our Captain, Mr. Harry L. Hallyburton, and to the Crew, the teachers, who have guided us through our wonderful and unforgettable tour of education.
