Earlville High School - Raidorian Our Years Yearbook (Earlville, IL)

Text from Pages 1 - 102 of the 1954 volume:

'Dedicat You're typical teens — making fun out of work — sharing interests — you like jeans but can change to glamour when it fits the occasion. Yes, you're typical teens — Go steady — about five months — Dress up — heels for her — tie for him — You know how to drive — rely on the family but — get it — say twice a week. You snack, watch television, listen to the radio while doing home work. You're a typical high school student — You go out for sports one hundred per cent — You hold down a job — baby sit — sometimes into the early hours of morning — You work in stores — garages — up late — little spare time. Your daily schedule is a familiar pattern of high school life — get up at 7:30 — maybe 8:00 — sometimes oversleep — ride the bus — go at break-neck speed to cafeteria for lunch — drink cokes — munch candy bars and hot dogs — now and then you order a real feed — You enjoy school but hate to admit it — study some — three hours a night — no — a week — average E — well M — Anyway you make the grade — just — but you’re satisfied because 'you are a teen ager. And so since you have all these qualities be they good or bad, ludicrous, pathetic or otherwise we DEDICATE THIS 1954 OUR YEARS TO YOU, THE STUDENTS OF EARLVILLE HIGH SCHOOL DEDICATION ADMINISTRATION FACULTY SENIORS JUNIORS SOPHOMORES FRESHMEN JUNIOR HIGH FAVORITES MUSIC ORGANIZATIONS ATHLETICS ACTIVITIES ADVERTISERS Mr. Wold, Mr. Frame, Mr. Miller, Mr. E. P. Flickinger, President; Mr. Pratt, Mr. Ather- ton, Mr. Torman. The school year has rap- idly slipped by. The seniors have finished their work on the 1954 yearbook. Even though you have spent many hours of hard work and have had many disap- pointments in preparing the annual, your finished prod- uct will be enjoyed by all the students, faculty, and friends of the school. Mr. Hunt and the staff deserve much credit for the time spent and effort put forth in publishing the yearbook. Your work will be appreci- ated more and more as years pass. s4t€ UKZl Thomas Burke Basketball 1, 2, 3, 4; Baseball 1, 2, 3, 4; Track 1, 2; Mixed Choir 1, 2.
