NILEHI REFLECTIONS NILES TOWNSHIP HIGH SCHOOL SKOKIE, ILL 1954 We, the Staff of the 54 REFLECTIONS, dedicate this book to the senior class. We do not do this to recognize thejr scholastic achievements or athletic prowess, al¬ though such recognition would be well de¬ served, but rather to honor them as an out- % standing class of young adults who have set high standards for all to follow in the coming years at Niles Township High School. CLARENCE PAYNE EARL GIRARD Lincolnwood, Illinois Morton Grove, Illinois BOARD OF EDUCATION WALTER C. BORNEMEIER, M.D. JOSEPH J. WITRY Niles, Illinois Skokie, Illinois Page 6 A MESSAGE TO THE GRADUATES WILLIAM WARREN MEYER Skokie, Illinois Our community, state, and nation require for full development a balance of scientific, cultural and religious elements. These are to be found in the individual; and to the extent that he has attained this balance of knowledge and experience, so will he be able to guide the destiny of his fa and community. It is hoped that Niles  wnship High School has supplemented the training of home and church so that each of you has acquired the balance of experience so necessary for your happiness and prosperity. Wm. W. Meyer Page 7 GRADUATES You are leaving the ivy covered halls of Niles to enter an atomic age, an age where man ' s expanding frontiers of know¬ ledge have given us an ever shrinking world. This is a world where the advent of speeds faster than that of sound has put the other side of the world less than twenty- four hours away. We have tried to give you knowledge of the technology which made these ad¬ vances possible, but more than that we hope we have given you an insight into how to exist and get along not only with your classmates, but with all the people on this world of ours. As you understand people and as you work with people for the liberties and freedom of the individual, you give the best evidence of what America ' s system of public education means to the future and to the world. fjosepl Qfl a son Joseph A.

ADVISORY COUNCIL Our class advisers deserve our thanks for the continual help which they have so graciously given us. We appreciate their interest in our activities, and also their concern for that new second semester schedule that must be made out! Not only do our advisers guide us in the conference room, but they also teach us in the classroom, and still find time to greet us with a friendly hello as we pass them in the halls.

Our efficient monitor system, the Senior Dance, the Annual Spring trips, and the See Chicago Club are only a few of her far-reaching achievements at Niles Township High School. We have all benefited from her faithful service, and we will never forget the smile with which she always greeted us. Although she has retired, Miss Harbert will always be a part of Niles Township High School to which she gave so much. Page 17 CUSTODIANS . . .

Although we look ahead to the future with eagerness, we also feel a little sad at leaving the familiar halls of Niles Township High School. Here we have been given the foundation for our future successes, made lifelong friendships, and shared many wonderful times together. This is another milestone on life ' s path, and, as we go our separate ways, we will never forget the faculty who guided us through these four years. We, the CLASS OF 1954, will carry the memory of Niles Township High School forever in our hearts.

With this position we have gained many new responsibilities which we hope have rested well on our now broader shoulders. The class rings we ordered in the fall arrived in January, and we were all thrilled with such a beautiful token of Nilehi. Spring vacation came, bringing our first opportunity to go on a long school trip. Never will those days in Washington be forgotten. As the school year was drawing to a close, Prom time neared, and we were able to enjoy the perfect dance we ' d been planning for so long. It seems almost unbelievable that next year will be our last. It will be difficult to fill the place left by this year ' s graduates, but we will try to live up to their standards for a greater Niles Township High School. Page 56 IN MEMORIAM ARLENE MERZ In September of this year, Nilehi lost a citizen. Although Arlene s life was short, she had attained those qualities for which we all strive: enthusiasm, devotion to ideals, a love of the outdoors and a spirit of leadership. She had physical vitality and spiritual wholesomeness. Arlene ' s great enthusiasm for sport and leadership made her an active member of the Girls ' Athletic Association. In her honor and memory, her many friends in that organization have established a new scholarship to be called the Arlene M. Merz Memorial Scholarship.

No longer were we the frightened freshies, but now the sophisticated sophs. We have really begun to enjoy Niles at its best and can more readily appreciate its many facets. We have taken advantage of the increased opportunities offered to us and hope we have given a little of ourselves in return. This year we have realized more fully the responsibilities of school citizenship. In trying to carry through our ideals, we have worked sincerely to solve the problems which came our way, cooperating with the Student Council. Next year well be upperclassmen. Sounds great, doesn ' t it?

FRESHMAN CABINET Here it is almost the last day of school and most of us still haven ' t quite recovered from that bewildering first day. We ' re sure that it is a day which will always be vivid in our memories as will be our entire freshman year at Niles. For it has been a year full of laughter, excitement, new activities, and even a little sadness here and there. We ' ve learned to work together not only within our class, but with the entire school, through the Student Council. t Along with the work, there ' s been fun, more fun than we imagined possible. There aren ' t any words to explain what a great feeling came over us at each of our many firsts this year: our first pep-rally, game. Homecoming, Christmas Vespers, Re¬ flections Revelry, and on through the whole marvelous year. No matter how much we look forward to being sophomores next fall, we ' ll keep looking back at our unforgettable freshman year at Niles Township High School.

Sunday, December 13 - Christmas Vespers gave us all that certain good feeling that accompanies the Yuletide season. We left with the sparkle of snowflakes in our eyes, and the light of the Christmas Star in our hearts. Monday, December 21 — Although we had planned to spend the first day of Christmas Vacation sleeping, a little matter of Christmas shopping intervened. We really hustled to find that special present for someone. Monday, January 4 — Time marches on . . . but on that first day back to school, we all thought it had marched away with our vacation a little too quickly. i DIARY Wednesday and Thursday, January 27 and 28 — Final Exams. No comment! Thursday, January 28 — Th e annual Faculty - N Club game revealed the hidden talents of many of our teach¬ ers. But honestly, how could any teacher refuse poor agonized Terrible Tommy Hoffman the washroom pass that he wanted! Friday, February 12 — We love you, Honest Abe. Your birthday gave us a three day weekend. Saturday, February 28 — Reflections Revelry once again brought forth a lot of Nilehi talent. Very nice prizes were given, but each prize should have been accompanied by one of the Sultan ' s harem girls, although he would probably have been reluctant to give them up. Tuesday, March 2 — We beat Highland Park in the first game of the Regional Basketball Tournament. They had to hold the roof on Cooley ' s! Wednesday, March 3 — Although our second Regional game was lost to Waukegan, we took the loss in our stride and won something really fine ... a greater pride in our school and its tremendous spirit. Saturday, March 13 — It may be sleepytime down South, but there was nothing sleepy about this year ' s Senior dance, The Cotton Cotillion. Friday and Saturday, April 9 and 10 — A symphony in water was the Water Show; the theme of which was Swimphony. There were musical routines for every taste: tangos, waltzes, ballads, and (be bop a do dee, re bop!) JAZZ. Monday, April 12 — In the Spring a young Nilehier ' s fancy turns to VACATION! Tuesday, April 20 — Life has dealt another cruel blow! We returned to school today. Saturday, April 24 — They say that Leap Year comes only every fourth year, but at Nilehi it ' s Leap Year each spring at the Turnabout Dance. Has anyone got an egg¬ plant so that I can finish making this vegetable corsage? Friday and Saturday, May 14 and 15 — Everyone attended the spring play to find out what The Curious Savage was so curious about. Saturday, June 5 — Mr. Webster will have to invent some new superlatives to describe The Junior Prom. Thursday, June 17 — Commencement brought mixed emotions to the graduating class. It was hard to believe that our four great years at Nilehi were all behind us now. After the ceremony, we alternately smiled and cried with our friends, realizing that this was the last time the entire class would be together. We hoped that we ' d added a little bit of ourselves to the traditions of the high school which we hold so dear to our hearts. Friday, June 18 — Yikes! No more school. I ' ll meet you at the beach.
