The Delaware Indians named this area Atege, which means place of the council fire. It was here that Indians down the river came to meet tribes from the north. Our valley was one of the most thickly settled Indian territories and many relics have been found. In 1940 the yearbook staff conducted a contest for the yearbook cover. Wes Adams, a member of the senior class, submitted a cover representing the above lore, it won the prize and the annual was called the Ategan.
