CITIZENSHIP AWARDS TO SENIORS Each year the D.A.R. and the S.A.R. recognize a boy and a girl from the senior class who are outstanding citizens. This is indeed a very high honor, as they are chosen on qualities of dependability, service, leadership, and patriotism. Those honored with these awards are Inez Sutton and Bob Hayden. The Danforth Foundation has also set aside funds to recognize potential qualities of leadership in young people. This foundation is incorporated to stimulate young people for purposeful living, and presents copies of the inspirational book, I Dare You, to the two students chosen for this award. Eileen Robinson and Bob Dell were chosen for this award. INEZ SUTTON: Inez has become well known by her charming voice as well as her pleasing personality. As a member of the National Honor Society, Saukee Scoops, and Glee Club she has demonstrated her many abilities to the fullest extent. BOB HAYDEN: Bob is one of our busy members of the Annual Staff. He is a player on our powerful gridiron eleven and President of the National Honor Society. Bob has the kind of personality that makes him well liked by everyone. EILEEN ROBINSON: The queen of them all. This beautiful gal with a personality to match was queen of the '48 Junior Senior Banquet and queen of our Homecoming, too. Eileen’s activities, interest, and personality really make a hit. BOB DELL: He is outstanding in almost every field, especially the football and basketball field. Bob succeeds in everything he undertakes and he undertakes many things. Besides being a star in sports he is a member of the Annual Staff, Mixed Chorus, National Honor Society, and President of the Student Council. 27
