MERE DOSIA - CHAMBERSBURG HIGH SCHOOL M ER EDOSI A ILLINOIS MISS MARY ANN SCHULTE ADVISO WE, THE CLASS OF NINETEEN HUNDRED SIXTY-EIGHT, WOULD LIKE TO DEDICATE Tins YEARBOOK, THE CHIEF TO OUR CLASS SPON- SOR, MR. RICHARD JAMES, IN APPRECIATION FOR HIS UNDERSTANDING AND PATIENCE DURING THE PAST FOUR YEARS. THANK YOU” . Advisor: EDITORS: Susan Me Allister and Reggie Six Head Layout and Creative: Vicky Ellett and Michael Browning Business Managers: Madeline Lidgard and Max Myers Miss Mary Ann Schulte YEARBOOK STAFF Typists: Pat Newman, Jeanne McDonnald, and Charlotte Surratt Staff: Gary Irvin, Karl Gerecke, Butch DeVore, Melvin Hamman, Vince Morath, Harvey Fuelling, and Stan Summers. Finding time for the various tasks that go into making the yearbook is one of the hard- est jobs the staff has. As a staff, they select the cover color and design, the end sheet design, the number of pages to be in the book, and the number of books to be ordered. They must also try to come up with some new ideas for layout, not only of the activ- ities, but also of the ad section. In con- nection with the ads, the entire staff takes one day to scour the countryside to make enough money to print the book. It is very seldom that the yearbook will show a profit t the end of the year, and it is only through the generosity of the merchants in this area t the book is successful.

JUNIOR - SENIOR PLAY MAN OVERBOARD! NOVEMBER 22, 19 67 JUNIOR-SENIOR PROM On April 29, 1967, the annual Junior, Senior prom, sponsored by the Junior class was held in the gym. A small catastrophe occurred during the evening of April 28. The Clark Brothers arrived to play rock and roll music for the decorating committee, but since we were not dressed for the occasion, we located another band after an hour or so of panic, for the evening of April 29. That was close; wasn't it, Mr. James? 42 The enjoyable banquet was prepared by the mothers of the Junior Class. The food was served by the fresh- men girls. %r Seniors, Jack Pool, Reba Clark, Judy Windsor, and Frank Clark provided entertainment at the banquet. The farewell speeches were given by Susan McAllister and John Griebler. 43 Homecoming 3rd Place—FFA One of the events sponsored by the Student Council, the Homecoming, was held on Thursday and Friday, October 19 and 20, 1967. The events began with the parade on Thursday afternoon which was followed by a GROOVY bonfire that evening! The 1967 Homecoming Dance was held on Friday night, October 20, in the gym. The music was provided by the MADDICS, who performed in their usual good form. The coronation took place at 9:30, with Miss Madeline Lidgard being crowned as the 1967 Homecoming Queen.
