D.H-S. Students Participate In fithietics Throughout The Schooi Y«ar At D.H.S. the students were in- volved in all types of sports. They worked hard all year toward doing their absolute at whatever sport they chose. While receiving great coaching and encouragement from their friends and coaches, they fought for victory. In late summer football practice began, and shortly after that the boys actually played. Of course, the girls had their own version, and they play just as hard in the pow- derpuff football game. By early December, action cen- tered on the indoor segment of sports at D.H.S. The season began with basketball for both girls and boys. Sports branched to include indoor track and wrestling for the boys. While the boys were building their muscles and polishing their skills, the girls were doing the same. They also attempted to be- come more graceful while per- forming in gymnastics. As the weather grew warmer, sports moved outdoors again. Baseball practice began for the boys, while both girls and boys started participating in outdoor track and field events, and in tennis. The students at D.H.S. were very proud of all their athletic events. Those who did not actually partici- pate were there giving moral sup- port and spirit to their athletes and friends. Barbara Arnold practices to help make the D.H.S. gymnastics team better. ( I I I I, i 1 I 10

The public schools at this time were in season for only a period of five months a year. Upon investigation it was found that it would be necessary to have a boarding department in order that the school might function financially. Originally, three buildings were built through subscription of pri- vate funds. These buildings in- cluded a boys ' dormitory, the Aca- demic Building, and a general dining hall combined with the girls ' dormitory. A second boys ' dormi- tory was added in the year 1907. The athletic department was coached by college men, and in many instances the school com- peted with colleges. This school was operated very successfully as a private school un- til 1911 when it was taken over by the county and made into a public high school. In 1922 a new building was built to take the place of the old wooden academic building. The cost of construction, $20,000 for the building and $5,000 for equip- ment, was raised by bond issue.
