m THE SPIRE ILLIANA CHRISTIAN HIGH SCHOOL LANSING. ILLINOIS CLASS OF 1952 If ye abide in my word then are ye my disciples indeed; and ye shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free. • FOREWORD Upon completing four years at Uliana we are now ready to leave with many pleasant memories to face the world and its problems. May our whole life reflect the Christian training we have received at Uliana. Through this Spire of ‘52’, we hope that you will also enjoy these experiences at our Christian school as you go through this annual with us. Uliana has 200 students and a faculty of ten. These students come by bus from the communities of Highland. Munster, Lansing, and South Holland. Ida De Boer. Editor Durant Van Oyen, Bus. Mgr. Pag Poor DEDICATION In his three years of service to Uliana Christian High School, Mr. Vanden Hoek has become a friend to all who know him. Zealously devoted to his work, no task is too great for him to undertake. His sincere Christian attitude toward his work and the students is evi¬ denced in his every effort to improve school spirit and to help the students with their problems. He has rendered invaluable service as our Spire photographer. It is therefore with much gratitude and respect that we, the Senior Class of 1952, dedicate this volume of the Spire to Mr. John Vander Hoek.

JUNE Graduation is a of our aspirations, momentous occasion marking the triumph but leaving us sad because of partings. P«9« Forty-four ADMINISTRATION CORNELIUS VAN BEEK Calvin College A.B. De Paul University M.A. Latin From the time he writes out ex¬ cuses in the morning until the last students leave at night, Mr. Van Beek is always understanding. He has de¬ voted much time and effort to im¬ prove the spiritual and educational standards of our school. We as stu¬ dents. sincerely appreciate his wise and kind instruction and guidance. Dear Graduates: Graduation implies congratulations; for the fact that you receive a diploma signifies that you have, though with widely varying degrees of ex¬ cellence, completed the requirements prescribed by your school. All of you no doubt are thrilled by the prospect of graduation, although possibly not for the same reasons. To some of you graduation means the “Open Sesame” to new halls of learning and the opening of avenues to other fields of endeavor. To others it is a joyous occasion because it means release from a formal program of training called school. Now jov in this release is not a discredit, provided it does not mean to you release from further intellectual growth and developing in¬ terests; that would mean stagnation and would be tragic indeed. High school graduation is intimately associated with adolescence, and adolescence is the opening of the door to the possibilities of full mature living. With our congratulations we join our prayer that the instruction and guidance provided here by your teachers may in no small measure help you to attain to an ever-growing, ever-developing maturity that constantly reflects the riches of the Grace of God in Christ Jesus. C. Van Beek Talking things over. P 9« Forty-six PETE COOK We appreciate our competent jani¬ tor who keeps our school neat and clean. Pete faithfully attends to his work whether the job be great or small. If in a “jam”, students often go to Pete for help. He is one person at Uliana who will not easily be for¬ gotten. JOYCE FENNEMA Mr. Van Beek is assisted in his office work by his secre¬ tary, Joyce Fennema. Joyce graduated from 111 i a n a in 1950. FACULTY Donald Oppewal Calvin Cel leg:? A.B.

Through four years at Illiana. by their God-inspired teach¬ ing, we are now prepared to go out into the world. Although no two teachers are alike, each one of them brings out God’s Providence in his subject. They have given us ideals and hopes for which to strive. It is because of their help and personal guidance that our years at Illiana have been so enjoyable and beneficial. Page Forty-eight John Vanden Hoek Central College University of Iowa A.B. Math.

IN MEMORIAM We the students of Illiana have again been brought to the realization of the very shortness and uncertainty of life. On March 15 word was received that DON VAN TIL was killed on the Korean battlefield. Don, a graduate of Illiana in 1948. is the first of our alumni to give his life for his country. A chapel service was held in memory of Don, in which many of his class¬ mates took part. Eugene Vander Wall, the president of Don’s class, told us of his acquaintance with Don a nd gave us a short history of his life. Audrey Koedyker and Helene Talen sang a duet. Rev. Visser, Don’s pastor, gave the message in which he pointed out to us the challenge which Christ gives - that we be prepared at all times, lor He comes as a thief in the night to call us from this life.
