The spring is past and yet it hath not sprung. The fruit is dead and yet the leaves are green. My youth is gone and yet I am but young, I saw the world and yet I was not seen. My thread is cut and yet it is not spun. And now I live and now my life is done. —Chidiock Tichborne THIS BOOK TELLS OF THE PRO- GRESS OF A SCHOOL — OUR SCHOOL THIS IS A BOOK OF PROGRESS of building, of students, education and lives. It pictures a year of destruction and re- construction. It shows the advancement of the students, education-wise and world- wise. It re-enacts our days in HPHS, for these are the days we will always re- member. Nothing will ever be the same again, because our world is expanding, like our school; yet this book will always be here to bring back happy memories of care-free days and not so care-free days.

This is the end, the culmination of our four years at High- land Park High. The realization that this time has come fills many of us with mixed feelings. We are proud to have completed our school- ing; we are sad to leave as we remember the times spent here. Many of us will be beginning in the world of business and it fills us with uncertainty; many will go on to higher educa- tion and our goals are yet unfulfilled. All real- ize however that our high school days have been happy and full ones. There have been times of change and progress, great joy and heartbreaking sorrow. There have been days that have made us what we are and what we will continue to be. Many of us will never meet again. We have reached the crossroads and we will continue in many different directions. We may never return to Highland Park again but we know that these have been wonderful years that will live with us always.

The Ballad of A Lad and A Lass By Gail Sloan A freshman lass, one autumn night As slumbering in her bed she lay, Dreamed of a knight in a letter sweater That she might meet one day. As she danced to school that Monday mom, She donned her rose-framed glasses. Thon, lo and behold! There was he Between eighth and ninth period classes. Any irresistible object, an immovable forco— She gasped as she gazed at the sight. The navy letter shone gloriously In a knitted field of white. The senior lad stood six foot three Just right for her five foot seven. Her heart skipped for—and—twenty beats As swift as the birds in the heaven. Tho lad smiled at the wide-eyed lass; She blushed a maidenly pink. She smiled in return and giggled a little As ho dropped her a skillful wink. Tuesday he stopped and said Hello, Thon asked her name 'Twas Fate! Wednesday night the telephone rang— How 'bout a Saturday date? Saturday camo and Saturday wont, And many more just like 'em. The girl was pretty and sweet and dear: The lad was very handsome. A blissful year of fun passed by. The two held hands together. They saw each other every day Regardless of the weather. At autumn time ho went to college— Anew they both began, He, to work on a bachelor's degree, Sho, on this year's senior man! Page 51 1. Oh, the passion! 2. The fashionable set. 3.

Student Council Executive Board The Student Council in our school is an organization which has some functions that many of us do not even realize. We think it is fairly easy to adjust to high school and we are justified in thinking so, for the Student Council orientates the new teachers even before school begins and the freshmen in an extra-curricular assembly. To aid in establishing these new school members it also sponsors all school elections, so that we can become acquainted with the various leaders in our school. Soon afterwards, marshals are chosen who work under the leadership of the Student Council to help enforce school rulings. The Council itself is divided into committees. Some of these include the traffic committee (in charge of parking stickers and traffic control), the fire drill committee, and the honor system committee. This year even more classrooms than last year contain the familiar placard On my honor I know of no cheating on this test.” If you were ever curious as to who sponsors our school dances, you would find that: it is again the Student Council who makes it- pos- sible for us to enjoy such events as Turn- about and Hobo Hop.” This year, in addition, the Council gave a jazz concert featuring Louis Armstrong, the proceeds of which are to be used for the new student lounges next year. Pat Floyd Memorial The Pat Floyd Memorial is an award for the most outstanding girl in the junior class. Each year since the death of Pat, the girl who most qualifies receives the honor. In the class of 1955 Jess Bridell won the award and a watch. Harvard Book Award The Harvard Book is presented to the best all around boy in the junior class. This award does more than serve to improve effectively relations between colleges and Highland Park High School. It is given, first and foremost, to that boy who has shown himself to be most worthy of it in the respects of high scholarship and character. The Harvard Book award of 1955 was presented to Fred Newmann. Pago 55 Girls' Club Board Seated: Paula Nelson, president; Miss Edith Morgan, sponsor; Linda Weis, treasurer.

In the future they hope to be able to finance some equipment for the new school. Boys' Club Boys' Club sponsors a banquet and dance each year.

The Homecoming of the fall of '54 Had features the same as years before, But the crowd and the players were not the same, As usual we all looked forward to the game. The fun began on Friday night, Though it was dark, the moon was bright. The snake dance went off with a ' bang” All through the town we danced and sang. We hollered and howled as we went through the street And we rang bells at everyone we would meet. On to the pep rally, though cold, still we could yell— We’ve got a team that fights like H-I-G-H-L-A-N-D P-A-R-K Amid cheers and shouts our team took a bow Win or lose, are we proud of them—and how! Saturday morning dawned cold and drear Would our team beat Proviso this year? One thing we knew, as in years gone by We’d never give up and always try. Each man on the team drove through the dirt But Proviso won and Roger got hurt. From the kick-off to the last seconds of play Though we didn't win, it was a wonder- ful day. Then that night, to the gym with our dates To dance to Lane Emery's music till late. Tired, foot-sore and hoarse from our screams Home at last to sleep, and pleasant dreams. Homecoming The entire cast assembled for the finale. November 20 marked the date of the 1954 edition of Student Stunts. As you all know, the proceeds go toward financing the yearbook. This year it netted $999.83 and the Senior Class voted to add the 17 cents to make it an even thousand. The script committee was composed of Sue Gordon, Sandy Edwards, Buddy Schreiber, Linda Weis and Barbara Rosin. They developed a story about the Purple Post Ranch in Slightly Dirty Junction and what hap- pened when they were suddenly beseiged with city folk. Buddy Schreiber wrote an original score including: Hay Down, Hoe Down, “Baby Keep Your Mind on the Money and The Time Has Come and the music to the Dream Dance. Giles Gunn assisted Miss Barbara Olson, director, and the class spon- sors Miss Spencer and Mr. Leverentz in the production. Will you Marry Me was done by The senior girls horsing around.

Spirit of Christmas past This year's Christmas Assembly, the presentation of Dickens Christmas Carol, added the proper note to begin the fes- tive holiday season. The music and drama departments, under the direction of Chester Kyle and Miss Barbara Olson, collaborated to make this fine production. As usual the most popular dance of the year was the Turnabout. Wonder Why?? Christmas Eve Bob Cratchit—Artie Woinfold Scrooge—Ed Giltilan Enjoying a rendevous are: Ralph Horbst and Lonore Mickow. Belles and Beaux,” sponsored by the Student Council, was held December 12. The decorations were in keeping with the Christmas spirit and they turned the gym into a Winter Wonderland.” The record crowd danced to the music of A1 Ford's band and for the first time music was piped down to the girls' gym where re- freshments were served. Sitting this one out are: Ken George and Shirley Scassellati. The orchestra, directed by Mr. Harold Finch, has had many projects this year, some of which are playing for the annual Christmas and Spring Con- certs, the Mikado, “Our Town, the Honor Assembly and for graduation exercises. The officers are: Carol Summers, president; Bill Bernard, vice-president; Louise Millett, secretary; and Fred Newmann, concert master. () it C H E S T It A Pago 70 The Highland Park High School band, directed by Mr. Harold Finch might be called one of the busiest organizations in school, and rightly so. For besides playing occasionally for grammar schools, they also play as we march into assemblies, between halves at the football games, at the annual Christmas and Spring Concerts. The officers are: Bill Vogg, president; Sharon Tanner, secretary; and Ed Kiehl, quartermaster. The training band, which is not pictured, is a group of up and rising musicians, who after a bit of training will soon play with the advanced group. Senior Choir This group of choraliers, easily identified by their traditional robes, are known as the Senior Choir. They are under the direction of Mr. Chester Kyle, and their president, Judy Kramp. Boys' Chorus This year's Boys' Chorus was an exception- ally fine group. They sang for assemblies, concerts and request performances. President of the group was Giles Gunn. Combined Choruses Singing the traditional Hallelujah Chorus are the combined choruses composed of five classes. Mixed Ensemble The mixed Ensemble is composod of Bill Gontry, Roger Sheahan. Judy Kramp, Mary Stewart, Sandra Edwards, Cynthia Langdon. Alan Engle, and Jerry Coppens. Boys' Quartet Members of the Boys' Quartet are Buddy Schre� ber.

On February 12, the Senior Class Executive Board, under the sponsorship of Miss Hil- dreth Spencer and Mr. Rodney Leverentz, presented Cupid's Capers. The Valentine decora- tions of red and white created a romantic atmosphere, while Johnny Lewis's band provided the music for Cupid's victims. Any Coed To Her Alma Mater . . . I'd like to be told in the awfulest way. What really commences Commencement Day? What favors are measured by high school degrees; What doors may be opened by honor keys? If Shakespeare is right and the world is a stage, How soon can I wangle a starlet's wage? How soon can I wow an atomic age? What arts does a bachelor find most dear; And where, oh where, do I go from here? Opportunity With doubt and dismay you are smitten, You think there's no chance for you, son? Why, the best books haven't been written. The best race hasn't been run. Berton Braley Page 74 1. Typing with concentration is their aim. and Mr. Zipoy is seeing that they do just that 2.

Field House Attendant Hans Larsen Athletic Field Groundskeeper Our Town Saturday, April 23, saw tho dazzling first night crowd gath- ering to witness ihe premier of Thornton Wilder's “Our Town . After being ushered to their seats the audience hushed as the lights dimmed and the stage manager sauntered out on the bare set, pipe in hand, to begin the play. After weeks of rehearsing, under the direction of Miss Barbara Olson and the organ- ization of Julie Winograd, the play proceeded “just like silk off a spool.” The most unique thing of this different play is its moving ef- fect upon its audience. It is a touching story of the lives of two neighboring families. The warm love story and drama was ably portrayed by the cast, making the evening's en- tertainment thoroughly enjoy- able. 1.

Odo To Hall Guards By Nancy Arnolt Give Me a Pink Pass or Givo Mo Death Those words which rang throughout East Hall Were told to a freshman, meek and small. For previously the bell had rung Without a pass you can be hung! These stalwart guardians of student rights. Always ready for brave, fearless fights Will check to see if you've boon forging. And are sneaking down to lunch for gor- ging. Oh! But they are a worthy lot, Asking to see why you're whore when you’re not. Taking the bull that tho seniors feed, And in all activities taking the lead. But this may console every hall guard— When enforcing discipline becomes hard That by the time they're forty they'll know in joy How to tell forging from tho real McCoy! At 3:25 By Nancy Arnolt I think that I shall never see A ride uptown completely free Of freshmen with their thumbs up high With hopes that someone will pass lay. For at the end of high school classes To the parking lot everyone quickly dashes And the air is filled with varying shouts— A ride, a ride, out of my way. you louts! While seniors pray in pitiful ways 'Cause upperclassmen DON’T walk these days. For if they're forced, the shame is great They never again recuperate. Where are these feverish kids all going Certainly not home to their studies and sewing! They're peeling down old St. Johns in cars To Shelton's they'll go now for candy bars. Page 94 1.

Hockey Girls' intramurals started out in the fall with a toe-splitting bully! Having the aid of our two student heads Jan Green- wald and Margarete Lubke, as well as our faculty sponsor. Miss Theo Zaeske, the class teams were selected with the juniors being victorious. However, it must be remembered that without the sage advice of Miss Sossdrof when we found ourselves in dire situations (varying from broken zippers to bruished shins.) many wouldn't have been intact to have seen the outstanding execution of all the skills learned during the hockey season by the famed Army - Navy teams. These two teams, which are composed of the most outstanding players of the class teams, concluded the season by giving a thrilling performance in the Army vs. Navy game, with Army winning 3-2. Shortly after the Army-Navy game we were fortunate in having a few members of the internationally known Irish Hockey Team, who were touring our country at the time, instruct girls from the class. Army and Navy teams in hockey. After the instructions we held a tea for them at which time we learned even more about the sport which had so gratiously be- T olleyball Session Champs Miss Zaeske’s session won tho championship. Top Row: Helen Sagi, Marianne Guyot, Joanne Nickels. Polly Hus- ting, Nancy Johnston. Bottom Row: Joan Walsh, Janice Grocnwald, Marcia Murphy. Cold from the snow, the hoc- key enthusiasts were driven in- side where our indispensable faculty advisor. Miss Ruth Nel- lie” Nelson, showed us the fun- damentals of neatly spiking those game winning points. There v as never a dull mom- ent in the schedule for Mary Davidson and Ann Goodman saw to it that each game had a scorekeeper and a not-to- be disputed with'' referee. However many times these re- ferees were given eye-glasses, in good faith of course, to aid them in their work and when the season finally came to an end Miss Zaeske's senior ses- sion won the intramural volley- ball tournament. Basketball - Badminton Under the leadership of Miss Mary Thompson, our advisor, and Janet Vierigg and Joe Meyergoff, we started out our basketball season. Miss Thompson's sophomore session came away with the session champion title. The juniors managed to win the class champion title with a score of 38-10. But all eyes were fixed on the annual Army-Navy game in which Navy upset Army, 24-16. Soon wo were smashing away with our badminton rackets. Mrs. Sarina and Julie Guhr had their troubles in converting us to this game. Jan Greonwald and Marianne Guyot, seniors, came away with the senior championship in the last game of the season.

Membership is not con- fined to the students high school career, but goes beyond, into the various fields of endeavor. CHARACTER. SCHOLARSHIP. LEADERSHIP, and SERVICE, the most fundemental virtues, were therefore deemed the most worthy of en- couragement by those who formulated the standards and obligations of this this worthwhile organization. The emblem of this society is the little gold key with the torch and shield. The keystone bears at its base the letters C.S.L.S. which represent the four cardinal principals of life, and uphold the virtues that this symbol rspresents. The FLAMING TORCH is the emblem of our purpose to lead that others may follow in the light; to keep burning in our school a high ambition for enduring values of life; to keep, serve and minister with kindness, to the needs of those less fortunate in talent or opportunity, that they may enjoy lives of greater beauty, richer joy, and fuller service to themselves and their country.

Let us hope that we have built something strong, straight and true; something worthwhile; something that will remain with us and enrich our lives; not a flimsy structure but a substantial basis on which to go on building—upward. In Memoriam . . . On Saturday May 21, 1955 John Levy a member ol the senior class was killed in an automobile accident. In memory ol a lellow classmate, the lollowing quotation from James Boswell is most appropriate: It matters not how a man dies but how he lives. Johnny lived a happy life—he had a sunny and cheerlul personality. Everyone who knew him enjoyed and liked him. For these en- during qualities, we his classmates will always remember him.
