Table of Contents Curriculum Page 4 Clubs Page 26 People Page 52 Sports Page 66 ENTRAL HIGH SCHOOL Learning is often represented by a torch, and our “torch” is Dyer Central. It is from its light that we gain a clearer insight of the responsibilities, opportunities, and experiences that lie before us. To us, it is a bright spotlight which leads us and inspires in us qualities of assuredness. During our busy school schedule, we not only complete our studies, but we also converse with friends and participate in clubs and sports. Each step in our lives is completed with a bit of guiding. Yes, Dyer Central does light.the way. Dyer Central Lights The Way Through The Curriculum Dyer Central’s light shines through its administration and curriculum. Each person, each talent and each course is used to enlighten the knowledge-seeking students. The light may be directed in many ways to guide, inform, and investi¬ gate. Counselors use their talents to guide, while teachers use their abilities to inform and instruct. Both persons use some of their light to investigate prob¬ lems which may cause dimness in under- i standing. Mr. Don Moriarity, St. John Township Trustee Mr. Fred Jones, B.S., M.S., Indiana State; High School Principal Many Talents Render . . . The administration of our school rests in the hands of Don Moriarity, George Bibich, and Fred Jones, men who have given Dyer Central effective leader¬ ship during a period of rapid growth and expan¬ sion. Mr. Moriarity, trustee, represents the school to the community, securing funds necessary to give Dyer Central students the best available teachers, facilities, and school plant. Mr. Bibich, supervising principal, has developed an air of cordiality and fairness among the faculty and students alike with his intense spirit and abundant enthusiasm for his job. Mr. Jones, the principal, continues his firm, but impartial, discipline; his constant improve¬ ment of the curriculum; and his own personal de¬ dication to making Dyer Central one of the finest high schools in the state. Mr. George Bibich, B.S., Western Kentucky State; M.S., Indiana State; Supervising Principal A Smooth Day Mr. Glenn Eberly, B.S., Ball State; M.S., Purdue; Boy’s Counselor, Lettermen’s Club. Problems, everywhere problems. . .Mrs. Wease and Glenn Eberly take care of the guidance problems while Mrs. Levine eases skin burns, minor cuts, and scratches. Financial reports and secretarial problems are solved by Mrs. Trapp and Mrs. Howell, respec¬ tively. These problems, however, seem minor to the students of Dyer Central because of the efficient way in which they are handled by our skilled corp of workers. Mrs. Cecile Levin, R.N., St. Margaret’s School of Nursing; School Nurse, Medical Professions Club. Mr. Bill Phillips, B.S., Indiana State; general math, algebra. Mr. Albert Lawson, B.S., Indiana State; solid and plane geometry, trig¬ onometry, baseball and Freshmen basketball coach, co-sponsor Letter- men ' s Club, Sophomore class sponsor. Mr. Kermit Kerns, B.S., Indiana State; M.S., Purdue; algebra, athletic director. Inspecting the different solid figures are Carol Miller, Steve Adams, John Blaskovich, Ervin Dudek, and Larry Newlin. Versatility, preciseness, and the usefulness of math make it a must in everyone’s curricu¬ lum. From the relationships in triangles to the algebraic mixture problems, all students find math practical. Percentages and fractions may pose problems for some, but after gen¬ eral math, the problems disappear. Taught by television, this advanced algebra class learns new methods Pondering over the equation, Charles Eaton looks at his book, and short cuts. At the board are Turhon Murad, Carol Detchon and while Brenda Wells completes her problem. Gary Kaiser. . . .Ich Liebe, Amavi, Habre Querido Mr. Jonas Kavaliunas, M.

Mr. Louis Iaconetti, B.A., M.A., Indiana State; La¬ tin, Television director, Latin Club, Golf Coach. Adventure of language lures the Dyer Central student with linguistic interests into a trio of fascinating languages-Latin, German, and Spanish. More sympathetic Spanish - Ameri¬ can, East - West, relations could be accom¬ plished through a better understanding of these languages and, all world problems would be seen in new light if the people of the world could understand each other. One of the numerous projects undertaken by the Latin classes is making unique and novel Latin Christmas cards. Examining some of these cards are: Susan Newland, Diana Davison, Ed Antkowiak, and Dennis Austgen. Making good use of the modernly equipped language labora¬ tory during German class are Skip Sitowski, Mary Kay Yuk- nis, Henry Yonker, Judy Hoffman, and Phil Gardner.

While Marsha Neimeyer relates the important facts of a historical event, Pat Vrable points out the location on the map. Eileen Staniszeski and Danny Stephen listen attentively. Following true to the form of Dyer Central’s aca¬ demic standards, the social studies department strives to develop the minds of its students in the fields of history, civics, and social living. All sen¬ iors learn the importance of having an economic mind and a true knowledge of their country’s gov¬ ernmental system. Both world and United States history play an important part in developing a student’s store of knowledge. In order for a stu¬ dent to plan for the future, he must know the events of the past. . . .Prepare For The Future Pointing out an important fact on how a bill is passed in Congress is Pat Gerlach. Mr. Yates, class instructor, John Blaskovich, and Bob Svast seem to be enjoying Pat’s explanation. Sociology class sparkles with humor and interesting discussions.

Lenora Smith, B.A., Indiana University, Ball State Teachers College, Art Institute, Elementary and High School art, sponsors art club. Art And Driving Both Take Knack Developing the individual’s creativity and in¬ terest in art is the main objective of all the art classes. Ceramics, painting, three-dimen¬ sional Christmas decorations, and posters keep the students and art club members busy all year round. Learning the position and function of the gauges to practicing parallel parking is the course followed by driving students. Curves, corners, full stops, and backing are transform¬ ed from inexperienced to cautious, defensive drivers. A stickler on safety, Mr. Stokes checks to see that Virginia Payne’s safety belt is fastened. A knowledge of correct driving maneuvers is necessary for all driving students.

A wint¬ er semi-formal, operating the popcorn ma¬ chine at all home games, and projects to help the needy are only a few of the many activi¬ ties of the society. No ball would be complete without a queen and her court; and so it was at the Candy Cane Ball. Shown with their escorts are Jo Sizemore (1st attendant) and Larry Newlin, Paula Henson (Queen) and Barry Sayger, and Cindy Breitzke (2nd attendant) and Doyne Cole. Pep “ Pep - Pep Through a variety of yells, enthusiasm, and co-operation, the varsity cheerlead¬ er have strived to boost school and team spirit. They are from left to right; Pau¬ line Govert, Jean Reder, Loit Toth, and Jo Sizemore, and Eileen Thiery, (capt.). Cheerleaders are selected for pep, personality, leadership, and dependability. They must maintain a C average throughout the school year and be interested in building school spirit. Since all five varsity cheerleaders will grad¬ uate this year, the junior varsity cheerleaders will be responsible for boosting spirit in the coming years. Junior varsity cheerleaders, Alice Peifer, Dayle Toth (capt.), Sharon Fauser, and Pam Krajewski are looking forward to be¬ ing the varsity cheerleaders of tomorrow. Their combined pep and enthusiasm has been effective in promoting school spirit. With a burst of enthusiasm, the varsity cheerleaders soar through the Sparking the freshman team on to victory are Barbara Hall, Jill Decker, Linda Logal, and Jackie Siebert (capt.).

With closed circuit and MPATI television, a new look has been added to Dyer Central. Under the skillful guidance of Mr. Louis Iaconetti, students have been trained to operate the equipment necessary for broadcasting. The T.V. schedule includes English, math, science, and art for both grade and high school students. Dyer Central will always be grateful to Mr. Iaconetti and the skilled corp of engineers who made this all possible. - 50 - Eager Helpers Learn Office Routine Enthusiastic senior girls enjoy helping the counselors. Here, Pauline Govert, Mr. Eberly’s ass’t.; Ruth Halfman, Mrs. Wease’s ass’t.; and Sandee Hill, Mr. Eberly’s ass’t.; study the new bulletin board prepared by the counselors. Also rating assistants, Mrs. Trapp takes special pride in these three helpers: Carol Moisoff, Sandra Halle, and Caroline Grummer. These general office assistants take a load of work off Mrs. Howell’s shoulders. They are Paula Henson, Mary Stamos, Carol Hilbrich, Karen Copp, Sharon Grodetz, Sylvia Nowak, and Jo Sizemore. As Dyer Central grows, the work pile in¬ creases for Mrs. Howell, school secretary; Mrs. Trapp, school treasurer; and the counselors. Each year, senior students and some junior students work in the var¬ ious offices to help relieve some of the tedious, routine work. In so doing, they gain valuable experience in office work and in aiding others in everyday life. 1 — r Dyer Central Lights The Way Through — Activities Dyer Central’s light falls upon the busy, high school days. Cramming for a test - drilling for sports activities— primping for the prom- breezing along to a dance — and devising elaborate science projects are activities enjoyed by all. The glow of Dyer’s light shines at night, as well as during the day. The creation of a total individual is accomplished by a complete extra-curricular program. Thus the stu¬ dents’ glow reflects and enhances the light of Dyer Central. Football, The Excitement Of Floats, Suppresses The And The Dance The winning float in the Homecoming parade came from the senior home¬ room of Mr. Stokes. The huge rabbit carried the theme “Hop to it and win!” Mr. Eberly and his aid ready them¬ selves at the scoreboard as they await the opening kickoff. Threat Of Dampened Spirits Queen Cheryl Duncanson and King Dan Butler reigned over the Homecoming of 1961. The court consists of junior candidates, Dick Rakoczy and Dianne Pawlowski; freshman candi¬ dates, Ron Austgen and Gayle Greenwell; SENIOR KING AND QUEEN; and sophomore candidates, Pam Krajewski and Ken Link. Homecoming, at any school, is a momentous occasion. It is no different at Dyer; in fact, Dyer Central’s is superior to most. Who can forget working until midnight on gaily-be¬ decked floats—the dismal rains that dampened the festive air and caused postponement of the parade until Friday eve¬ ning—the water-logged bonfire—the tense moment as the winning float was announced—the “oohs” and “ahs” of an admiring crowd as they viewed the floats—the fever of vic¬ tory as Dyer trampled Crete 39-13—and to compensate for all these hectic moments, the enchantment of the Homecom¬ ing Dance—these are the things that make Homecoming a memorable experience. Highlighting the Homecoming Dance was the coronation of seniors Cheryl Duncanson and Dan Butler by Eileen Thiery and Jim Austgen. Working hard to complete decorations for the gala affair are Caroline Grummer, Di¬ ane Ferguson, and Mary Stamos. Excitement, suspense, and happiness are the emotions of the evening. Arriving at the en¬ trance are Don Cathey and Marge Postma. While Jim Theil helps Marilyn Koepl out of car, Ray Stout and Lois Toth wait to enter the elaborately decorated gym. Arranging Carol Detchon’s bracelet is Bob Apple as they prepare for an enjoyable evening. For Janice Young, Mike Biedron, Carol Hilbrich, and Paul Marcinek, the suspense and excitement increase when they behold the dreamy scene in the decorous foyer. Melodious music puts Dee Webb, A1 Bush; Gerry Adler and Carl Spinozi in a sentimental mood. The drama unfolds as the grand march, led by Prince and Princess, Gary Kaiser and Georgia Thomas; junior class president, Pat Skorupa, and Bill Rosenwinkel, brings the evening to its climax. Then the big moment finally ar¬ rives when Marlyn Redar and Linda Ericks are crowned King and Queen. Happiness pre¬ vails at the Night of Nights. . .“Orchid En¬ chantment.” Underclassmen Juniors Take NEDT Tests On March 6, 1961 the Juniors took the NEDT tests. If their scores ranged above the 94 percentile, they received special recognition at an all school assembly. Those Juniors who received certificates are as follows: Back row (left to right); Allan Maschger, Phil Gard¬ ner, Phil Govert, Bob Crider, Jerry Hancock, and Tom Brusch. Middle row ( top to bottom); Sandy Halle, Carol Detchon, Peer Lykke, James Wozniewski, Linda Tussey, Pat Albright, and Eileen Staniszeski. Additional NEDT Winners Along with the Juniors, the Sophomores also took the NEDT tests. The main purpose for this type of test¬ ing for both Juniors and Sophomores is to determine their rank in the class and to calculate their indivi¬ dual abilities. Those Sophomores receiving honors are as follows: Back row (left to right); Norbert Fortener, Alan Armstrong, Dennis Gilliam, Rich Devine, Veme Seehausen, John Banks, Melvin Piepho. Second row: Jim Lewkowski, Judy Hall, Nora Duncan, Shirley Burbage, Sandy Ramsey, Cheryl Anderson. Third row: Mike Muenich, Wayne Krooswyk, James Cleair. - 58 - Receive Honors Best Drum Major Miss Pat Albright received the honor of best drum major at the state band contest held in Lowell on October 14, 1961. Six marching bands participated in this event, with Dyer Central’s band receiving a first. Pat was the drum major of Dyer’s band in her Junior year. Football-O-Rama Queen Candidates On September 3,1961, Elaine Easton (left) and Kathy Nich¬ ols (right), were queen candidates for the Football-O-Rama held in Gary. Elaine represented the Sophomore class, while Kathy represented the Junior class. Because the Football-O-Rama took place before school started in 1961, these girls were picked at the end of the previous school year by the popular vote of their class.

Fast Finish Boosts Team To Football at Dyer Central is Coach Tom Stokes. Its resurgence began with advent of Coach Stokes on the coaching scene and has continued through three years of his reign, a period that has seen Dyer’s football legions emerge with a composite 21-8-1 re¬ cord. Facing the ’61 season with the loss of the ma¬ jority of his Conference Co-Champs of the previous year, Coach Stokes began the year with a few re¬ turning stars and a host of inexperienced, but eager, candidates. Jim Austgen, Ray Stout, Bruce Fane, Larry Jones, Dan Butler, Phil Govert, Bob Svast, and Steve Adams were returning lettermen who were to provide the spark that ignited another fine football season. With these prospects as his ingre¬ dients, Coach Stokes, ably assisted by Carl Yates and John Tennant, welded the 1961 team into a proud unit that swept to a 6-3-1 record. It was a team that sometimes played worse than they were, sometimes better than they were, but always well enough to gain the respect and admiration of every football fan who saw them. The season began with a stunning victory over Portage, 14-6. Portage, a pre-conference champ fav¬ orite, came to Dyer with high expectations, but they were deflated by a hard-charging Dyer line and a driving backfield, paced by triple threat Jim Austgen’s two T.D.’s. The Indians followed this victory with a terrific first half against Griffith that saw Dyer pile up a 13-0 lead, only to have the lead disappear after a 95 yd. kick off return and a second half touchdown by Griffith that saw the game end in a 13-13 tie. Jim Austgen bursts through the hoop as a prelude to 39-13 Homecoming triumph, while cheerleaders glow with excitement prior to opening kickoff. Varsity football team: First Row: D. Hilbrich, D.

Rakoczy (27), P. Gardner (33), R. Ochs (41), L. Jones (45), and P. Govert (32), which prevailed throughout the season, ranked Dyer as best defensive team in the Conference. Jones hauls in Austgen’s pass while frustrated de¬ fender frantically trys to recover. Indians Present Varied Attack. . . . Seniors dominate backfield; halfbacks Bob Svast, Jim Austgen, quarterback Ray Stout, fullbacks John Blaskovich and Stan Edwards Dyer Central’s highly successful kicking team lines up for practice with Bob Svast centering to Newell Easley as Jim Austgen awaits the snap. Dyer bench eyes action as trainer Ray Probasco stands ready to care fo r any injuries. Then began a critical period in Dyer’s football for¬ tunes. They were defeated, 21-0, by the new Confer¬ ence champs, Gary Edison, and they were stung with a 13-0 loss at the hands of a strong T. F. South squad. Faced with the dismal prospects of a losing streak, the Indians rallied brilliantly and repulsed Gary Wirt at Wirt’s Homecoming, 9-6, on a 23 yd. field goal by Jim Austgen, a Wirt nemesis, who for the second con¬ secutive year, upended the Troopers by the margin of a field goal. Highland’s Trojans, their next oppo¬ nent, ground out a 24-7 win over the Indians in a game that saw Dyer nursing a 7-6 lead, only to have an errant pass from center recovered by Highland and lead to a deluge of Highland points. Then the Indans caught fire. Against Merrillville, they scored 3 times in the last 6 minutes to thwart the Pirates, 19-7; against Crete-Monee at Homecoming, the In¬ dians exploded for five touchdowns and Crete fell under the onslaught 39-13; and at East Gary the In- ians slogged to a 26-0 victory. At this point in the season, the stage was set for a bitter Dyer-Lowell struggle in its most classic tradition. They were both tied for second in the Conference, and the winner would have undisputed second while the loser would drop to a tie for third. Buoyed by the importance of the game and the spirited preliminaries, the Indians smashed their formidable rivals, 28-7, in what was easily Dyer Central’s greatest game of the season. With a stiff straight arm, John Blaskovich wards off a Griffith tackier during the tense battle which ended in a 13-13 tie. . And Staunch Defense Dyer’s offensive line waits for snap signal; Left to right: B. Fane, I. Thornberry, P. Govert, R. Ochs, D. Butler, S. Stephen, and L. Jones. At the conclusion of the season tailback Jim Austgen and tackle Irvan Thornberry were placed on the All- Conference first team; and Larry Jones on the second unit. As the season is reviewed, the tie with Griffith de¬ prived the Indians of sharing the conference champion¬ ship with Gary Edison; however the team rose to terri¬ fic heights in their victories over Portage, Wirt, and Lowell. Next year the seniors will be sorely missed, but the coaching staff has a group of sturdy linemen return¬ ing and several backfield men who promise to continue the winning tradition.

Successful Season Climaxed Leading ground gainer for Dyer, Jim Austgen (10), breaks into the open field for another substantial gain as Bob Svast (26), Phil Govert (32), and Bruce Fane (31) lead the interfer¬ ence against Griffith. Displaying the plaque to which their names will be added are All- Conference Irvan Thomberry and Jim Austgen. By All-Conference Selections All-Conference end Larry Jones One of the highlights of the season was the selec¬ tion of Jim Austgen and Irvan Thomberry to the All-Conference team. Austgen, an All-Conference halfback, was a genuine triple-threater as he ran, passed, and kicked for 70 points and accumulated over 1500 yards on total offense. Thomberry, an All-Conference tackle, emerged as the top lineman on the team with his speed, tackling, and blocking. Both boys are a credit to the game and represent two of the finest young men that football can pro¬ duce. Larry Jones, a burly end, earned a spot on the All-Conference second team with his strong de¬ fensive play and his outstanding pass catching. Freshman football team: TOP ROW D. Furuness, MGR., R.

With only two returning lettermen, Doyne Cole, and Dick Mitchell, Coach Robertson was fac¬ ed with a rebuilding job. The team’s lack of experience was evident throughout the season. The Indians revealed fight and determination, but the necessary in¬ gredients for winning were seldom pre¬ sent. The high spot of the year was reached when the team set a gym scoring record of 78 points. Junior Larry Jones was the squad’s high scorer with 271 points for a 13.5 points per game aver¬ age.

Golfer’s Rebuild Team Last year’s team, consisting of Marvin Hanson, Ne¬ well Easley, Jan Full, and Jerry Curtis, had a full season. The 1961 scorecard showed 30 wins-10 losses. In tournament competition the team did well: Re¬ gional, 13th out of 42 teams; Laporte Invitational, 4th of 33 teams; Lake Hills Invitational, 6th of 23 teams. The team finished 2nd in the Calumet Con¬ ference. While rebuilding his team, Lou Iaconetti has a rough schedule including such teams as South Bend Adams, South Bend Central, Lafayette Jefferson, La¬ porte, and many other regional schools. Practicing putting are returning lettermen, Jerry Curtis and Newell Easley. Top Row: J. Palm, P. Vrabel, J. Sedlacek, B. Neal, B. Odell, J. Jung Second Row: T. Delinck, J. Lucas, M. Biedron, W. Hendrix Front Row: J. Britton, B. Kelsey, R. Kenniger, B. Burris h, B. Imes Thinclads Take Second In Conference Meet Coach Hayes caught in an amiable mood after placing second in Conference. Neither rain, nor sleet, nor sore feet can stop the Dyer Central cross-country team from turning in a fine performance. This year’s squad, led by the outstanding running of Junior Joe Britton and Freshmen Tom Delinch, compiled a respectable record of 6 wins and 4 losses. The squad closed the season by fin¬ ishing a strong second in the Conference meet. Coach Hayes must be congratulated for his team’s fine showing. n returnees demonstrate fundamentals of the game while coaches Mygrants Dyer Centrals Baseball Team The spring of 1961 presented a real challenge to the Indian baseball squad. They were faced with the necessity of win¬ ning as many games as possible in order to continue the In¬ dian’s march to the All-Sports Trophy. Dyer Central’s fall and winter sports had given the Indians a slim lead in the race for the trophy and the team could not falter iq the stretch run. The baseball Indians rose to the occasion and notched four wins in the conference race, and, by a strange twist of fate, these four wins were the only victories the base- ballers could muster for the entire campaign. As is usually true of Indian athletic teams, they were toughest when the chips were down. The four wins enabled the baseball team to contribute their share toward winning the All-Sports Trophy. Senior members of the ’61 squad who have since departed were Ozzie Kilander, the leading hitter, Jim Campbell, John Render, and Wayne Baker. Coach Bob Mygrants is to be con¬ gratulated on his fine conference showing, and also sharing in the plaudits is Lon Lawson, his very capable assistant. All-Conference pitcher Phil Govert follows through as he fires a fast ball toward the plate. Makes Good Conference Showing As the baseball forces prepare for the ’62 season, coach Bob Mygrants can smile with anticipation. As he sur¬ veys his returning lettermen, he sees several key re¬ turnees from the ’61 squad. Pacing the pitching de¬ partment are his three top pitchers of ’61, Phil Govert, an All-Conference selection; Larry Jones, who is ready for a great year after gaining valuable experience; and Joe Britton, a lean lefthander with a good curveball. On the infield the coach can point to Bob Wells and Rich Devine, returning first basemen; and Pat Vrabel, an infielder with some experience; it is here that Coach Mygrants and his able assistant, Lon Lawson, must find some personnel to handle the left side of the in¬ field. The outfield has Jim Austgen, Dick Rakoczy, and Bob Svast slated to continue their fine work of the previous year and the catching is well-fortified with the entire catching corps back from ’61, lead by Bob Crider. Coach Mygrants is well aware of his pri¬ mary need, finding boys who can man the infield posi¬ tions and who can deliver the timely hit. With these two problems solved, the baseball Indians could have a very fine season and return Dyer Central to the lofty baseball reputation it once enjoyed in the Calumet re¬ gion. Sophomore first baseman Rich Devine holds runner to short lead off. Pinch-hitting Dick Rakoczy cracks out another hit, open¬ ing Dyer rally. Catcher Bob Crider warms up pitcher between innings. Top row: Mgr. D. Furuness, P. Vrabel, G. Kaiser, D. Rakoczy, B. Fane, B. Imes, Coach Mil- by. Second Row: B. Hogge, D. Stephen, B. Waddington, J. Bricker, W. Hendrix, and B. Wil¬ son. Matmen Continue To Experienced lettermen led Dyer’s wrestling team to a fifth place finish in the Conference. Coach Les Milby had a highly competitive team that always came to wrestle. The team was led by Heavyweight Gary Kaiser, who remained undefeated until the final two matches of the season. In the Sectional meet, Bill Hogge qualified for the Regional with a second, but was defeated the following week in the first round. In his third year as wrestling coach, Mr. Milby has done a fine job in building Dyer into a respected team in the area. He also has eight returning lettermen for next year and has high hopes of making a better showing with a more experienced team. Gary Kaiser practices his specialty, pinning his opponent. - 82 - Roiling his opponent over, Bill Hogge works for a pin.

Spikes flash in the bright spring sun and lean bodies strain in the crisp air, heralding the openng of track season at DCHS. Coaches John Tennant and Paul Hayes, en¬ couraged by a strong group of returnng letter- men, are anticipating a winning season. The In- dias, led by Ruiz, Stout, Kelsey, Holmes, and Thornberry, will be striving to improve on last year’s 5th. place finish in the Conference Meet.

This team, the newest addition to our athletic program, is striving for recognition through long hours of hard work and seemingly endless practice. By competing with other schools in exhibitions whenever possible, they are hoping to attain varsity status in the near future. Paul Marcinek performs on the side horse. Dyer Central’s light shines on its basic force, its students. The faces and smiles, and old activities are soon recalled. In future years, this light will clear the vague shadows and relight the flame of old friendships. Classmates, competi¬ tors, and stars will continue to be bright¬ ly illumined as time goes on. For years to come, the light will shine—and re¬ mind us of dear “ole” Dyer High. Dyer Central Lights The Way Through The Student Body - 88 - Ernie’s Crew We, the class of 1962, are very grateful for all the help given to us, above and beyond the call of duty, by our class sponsor, Mr. Vereb. Under his and the officers’ leadership we have raised the revenue for and organized the 1961 prom, “ORCHID ENCHANT¬ MENT”. We have sold class pins, candy, graduation cards and announcements. From our excess funds we will leave a refreshment stand for the football field to aid the development of dear old Dy¬ er High.

Miss Jean Reder was pre¬ sented with the Betty Crock¬ er Homemaker of Tomorrow award on February 14, at a special assembly. The award is given to the senior girl who scored the highest on the test, which was given on De¬ cember 5, 1961. Miss Pauline Govert re¬ ceived the Crisco Award at the end of her Junior year for being chosen the best student in home eco¬ nomics. She was chosen for co-operation in the class room and outstand¬ ing grades. Many duties are placed on the Senior class officers during the year. One of the many responsibilities of these Seniors is to order caps and gowns for grad¬ uation. The class officers are as follow: Standing (left to right), Bonnie Neit- zel (V-Pres.), Mike Biedron (Treas.), Doyne Cole (Pres.). Sitting are Jean Reder (Sec.), and Mr. Vereb (Sponsor). Coveted Awards Dan VanDerWoude-Bausch and Lomb Award Dan VanDer Woude and Carol Miller-Washington trip delegates. Junior Class Officers The junior class has made its mark on Dyer Central High School. They have con¬ tinued the fine tradition of presenting Dyer Central with an outstanding prom, one of the social highlights of a student’s school life; they have among their class several members distinguished for their scholarship and leader¬ ship; and their athletes are among the finest. Among their other activities are taking charge of the cokebar, selling candy at Christmas, and sponsoring dances after the games. With these experiences behind them, they stand on the threshold of their senior year with con¬ fidence and determination to succeed. The efficient and aggressive junior officers have piloted the class through an unusually successful year. They are: Tom Brusch, President; Cindy Breitzke, Vice-president; Marsha Niemeyer, Treasurer; Mr. Edwards, Sponsor; and Dottie Ross, Secretary. - 106 Have Many Responsibilities United States History is a required subject taken by all juniors. Marsha Niemeyer and Pat Vrabel explain the importance of knowing map locations. As the fall semester began, many juniors were seen proudly displaying their class rings. Various colored settings have been purchased, and all juniors are delighted to wear them. Arrive In Style - 109 - Victory Dances Given As the Yule season drew near, Kriss Kringle made his appear¬ ance at a junior fund raising dance. Prizes were awarded by Jim Wozniewski (Santa) and Tom Burnison (a reindeer) for the most originally decorated socks. Santa is seen with the winners as they all make their Christmas wishes known. - 110 - Sophomore Class Starting the year with a little more rank, the sophomore class shows promise of better things to come. Taking NEDT tests and or¬ dering and receiving their sweaters are some of the highlights of a typical year. Many soph¬ omores brought honor to their class by being presented with NEDT awards. Mr. Lawson has capably directed the sophomores through a memorable year. Posing in their new sweaters are the sophomore class officers: Diane Czech, Treas.; Pam Krajewski, Sec.; Mr. Lawson, Sponsor; Karen Furman, Pres.; Bob Spinozzi, V-pres. Beilfuas, Larrv Bellamy, Richard Bickham, Terry Blaskovich, Martha Boling, Larry Boehell, Linda - 116 - 17 - Freshman Officers Accept When the freshmen class invaded the halls of Dyer Central High School, we had to stop and step aside. Consisting of 270 stu¬ dents, this year’s freshman class is the larg¬ est ever to enter this school. By indicating that they already have become an integral part of Dyer Central, the freshmen promise to become one of the school’s finest classes. They have sung the school song, yelled at athletic contests, studied endlessly, learned the intricacies of opening a locker, gone out for clubs, teams, and other activities, and have eagerly participated in all walks of school life. Freshmen class officers hold regular meeting with president Dave Rojahn presiding. From L. to R. Cheryl Andrews, vice president; Miss Jan Rogers, sponsor; Rojahn; Wanda Kerns, secretary; and Colleen Greer, treasurer. - 118 - First Responsibilities - 119 - Make New Friends 120 - To High School Life Siebert, Jackie Simms, Richard Sitowski, Elaine Sizemore, Sandra Skaggs, Mickey Spanier,.Susan Stage.

Here in the fa¬ miliar surrounding of Dyer, Routes 41 30, St. John, and Schererville we have experienced miniature business problems of finding part-time and summer em¬ ployment. Now we must hurry and find our place in the sun, before the full ra¬ diance has a chance to fade. Then the light will continue after we are settled in our new world, because we will reflect and reproduce some of its guiding rays.

Some are gaining knowledge and experience in spe¬ cial trades to become journeyman machinists, car¬ penters or electricians . . . some are concentrating on certain phases of steel making by working in the open hearth shops, the cold rolling mills or the galvanizing lines. Still others are working in laboratories building a sound foundation for a future in steel research. Inland offers the high school graduate an excellent opportunity to further his ed ucation. Employees may participate in a variety of on-the-job training pro¬ grams, or they can continue their formal education by registering for evening courses offered by local Purdue and Indiana University Extension Centers.
