SENIOR CLASS HISTORY On September 6th, 1937, sixty-six worried Freshmen enrolled at Dyer High School. When the Freshies and upper classmen were finally gather- ed in the assembly, we were introduced to our new principal, Charles G. Hunt. Since none of the faculty members wished to sponsor our class, Mr. Hunt took charge of the Freshmen until Mr. Carnahan joined the faculty two weeks later. At our first class meeting the following officers were elected: Elaine Seegers, president, Jimmy Thiel, vice presidentg Alice Croner, secretaryg Roy Keilman, treasurer. Don Adams and Yvonne Keil- mcn were elected as representatives to the Student Council. We also chose red and white as our class colors, the American Beauty Rose as our flower, and Aim Higher as our motto. During our Freshman year we took part in the baseball and basketball tournaments, the Plum Creek Review, and had two class parties. Outside of raising rumpus in Biology and giving the assembly teachers headaches, the Freshies did nothing spectacular that year. We spent our class day at Michigan City. The following officers were elected for our Sophomore year: Howard Lee, presidentg Pearl Boersma, vice presidentg Cyril Bohney, secretary, Mildred Hoffman, treasurer. As Sophomores, we took part in the baseball and basketball class tournaments, presented a one-act comedy as our part of the Plum Creek Review. We also had two parties that year. At one of those parties we had a slight accident with a bottle of root beer and as a result the ceiling of the Home Ec. room had to be redecorated. Our class day was a happy outing at the Dunes where Howard Lee showed the class some plain and fancy swimming. Our Junior year was one of work and financial worry in an effort to raise funds for the Prom and Banquet. The officers for that year were: Don Adams, presidentg Mildred Hoffman. vice presidentg Alice Croner, treasurer, Yvonne Keilman, secretary. The class raised money by selling candy, sponsored a show, a skating party, a dance, and co-sponsored a Christmas carnival with the Seniors. During our Junior year we also purchased our class rings and sweaters. Our contribution to the Plum Creek Review this year was a baby contest in which Buck Bohney play- ed the part of a nigger baby and Ben Cromer was a little Jew. Our Prom was held at the Crystal Ballroom in the Gary Hotel, and the banquet was held at Lake Hills Country Club. We again spent our class day at Michigan City. Forty-nine Seniors enrolled for our final year of high school. The officers elected for this year were: Bud Dunkelberger, president, Howard Lee, vice president, Leona Peifer, secretary, Pearl Boersma, treasurer. The most important activities of our senior year were: graduating, publishing of the year book, and the presentation of our class play, Wedding Spells , a three act comedy.
