Refrain: We will ne'er forget our Alma Mater, Tho' our high school days are o'er.. We will ever love our H! T! H! As we did in days of yore. Red and White shall always be our colors That will make our pulses throb: I-l.T.H. to you, we will e'er be true, H.T.H., dear Hinsdale High. So let us bravely raise the song, And let all our voices ring, Our days in high school won't be long, So while we are here we'll sing.

Sotola N., The juniors put their best foot forward this year by successfully presenting the play of that name. The star-studded cast included Iarvis Dugan and Virginia McKinstry, our glamour girls. Charles Dugan and Steve White played the male leads. The South Side put on a mixer called The Pay-off, as the result of their losing the ticket selling race for the play. Highlighting this very gay mixer were Bennett Creed, Dave Craigmile, and Charles Dugan, masters of ceremonies. Miss Grace McKichan and Coach Robert C. Wright were the sponsors that helpfully carried the juniors through one of their best years. Edward Orth, president: Alfred Holland, vice president: Polly Armstrong, secre- tary: Albert Sotola, treasurer: and Alice Powers and Charles Dugan, so- cial chairmen, were the competent administrators of the juniors. Climaxing a wonderful year was their definitely divine Prom in May. A ze if -A m..u ' .mi B ' gl-4'vll .-4' nf lui I S mild' if If if . AA It JUNIORS Bow Flow Rcw Row Plow hcw Row Row R. Anderson, D.

Brooks Parties, picnics, and plays have kept the class of '47 continually on the go. The Frosty Frolic, a very successful mixer held in Ianuary, left the sophomores panting for more. We dusted off the welcome mat and had more mixers to which we invited other classes. We entertained the assembly with a clever play. A great deal of credit goes to Mrs. Iosephine Broholm who directed it for us. Our very efficient class officers were Rod Rawlins, president: Bob Brooks, vice-president: Paul Bishop, treasurer: and Glen Karnatz, secre- tary. Our sponsors were Miss Catharine Whitehorn and Mr. Clifford Durman. Being the largest class in school, we naturally feel our responsibility for upholding school traditions and ideals. We are half way through our high school career, and we hope We have as much fun in store for us in the future as we have had in the past. 31 SOPI-IOMORES Row 1: D. Bach, W. Bennette, C.

Sieben, A. Burridge, D. Corydon, C. Dean Under the capable direction of Mrs. Marie Phillips and Mr. H. F. McKee, this year's freshman class got off to a fast start on its high school career. After spending most of the first semester getting acquainted, the green mice put on several successful social functions. Among these was a mixer, held February 9, that featured games, contests, dancing, and the inevitable refreshments. The frosh made a Wise selection of officers who did a bang-up job of heading the class through its first year in H.T.H. They were Clark Dean, Apresident, Ann Burridge, vice-president: Tom Sieben, secretary, and Don Corydon, treasurer. 36 UCP' .rw iii I 'f 4,7 K, H A-..' c r .r W' ' J? 'HT-is I 2 .iw FRESHMEN D.

The members are to be commended tor their enthusiasm and diligence, par- ticularly in the regularity of their after-school rehearsals, Where they studied the music of the great mas- ters under the direction of Mr. G. Austin Kuhns. This group gave a spirit of festiv- ity to many occasions.

During the year the chorus gladly furnished music for church services, assemblies, the Chicago Servicemen's Cen- ter, the Great Lakes Naval Training Station, and other programs as requested by various organizations. One of the most enjoyable performances oi the school year is the annual Christmas pageant for which the chorus provides the background music. A As one period each day is given to chorus Work, students are given one-halt credit a year for it. 54 The other big project of the chorus is the operetta, given every year in the spring. Among those previ- ously given have been Pinafore, The Mikado, The Marriage of Nannette, and The Chocolate Sol- dier. This year's operetta Was The Pirates of Pen- zance, one of the most popular of the Gilbert and Sullivan operettas.

Dugan Iunior Red Cross Hospital Service went into its second year of work at the Hinsdale Sanitarium this year. This service originated in August, 1943, when twenty chosen girls first began helping to relieve the nurse shortage at the sanitarium. Other girls joined during the year, and the following spring, training classes under the supervision of nurses were put into effect for sophomore girls. In Iune, after these girls had fulfilled the national Red Cross require- ment of completion of the tenth grade, they began work. The group has given more than 6000 hours of service at the sanitarium. Girls who have Worked over 100 hours automatically belong to the honorary Century Club. ln May this year a course was started for sophomore recruits who will fill the places of this year's seniors.

They lost their second game to Oak Park, 39-33. Their first victory, they Won against East Aurora, 22- 29. Next they were upset in three conference games against Glenbard, 43-19, La Grange, 38-30, and York, 45-34. However, they returned to conquer York, 33-36. Because the Devils had a shorter team than many of their opponents, Coach Clare Riessen stres- sed close co-operation and fast playing as their main strategy. Row 1: R. Foss, M. Foley, R. Morris, D.

Like the Devils, the lmps were handicapped by the fact that they had a shorter team than most of their competitors. However, Coach Bob Wright stres- sed the points of rebounding, clever co-operation, and a strong defense as well as offense to overcome this handicap. as Upper Left: Connie Creed leaps into the air to catch a high pass from Dick Wharton who is being guard- ed by Dick Schilling.
