CRAVENS, Principal Mr. Cravens is really the senior member of the faculty at Roanoke High. lt was twenty-five years ago that he first came to Roanoke, after receiving his Bachelors degree from Bradley University, and his Masters degree from the University of Illinois. During the years he has spent here, Mr. Cravens has taught industrial arts, biology, and boys' physical education, it is probably as Coach' that our graduates remember him best. Now Mr. Cravens has taken over a new task- os principal of Roanoke High School. We wish him as successful years in the future as he has had in 'l952- 53. CLYDE C. CORN, Superintendent Mr. Corn became the superintendent of schools of Roanoke-Benson Unit District 60 in 1952. He attended Oakland City College, Indiana State College, and Ball State Teachers College, where he received his Masters degree. Before coming here, he was superin- tendent of schools at Mount Zion. During his year here, Mr.Corn has made many friends and accomplished much, keeping our school a smooth-running unit, and overseeing the administration of the two grade schools and two high schools at Roanoke and at Benson.

Senior Flag 'Mumba Jumbo' was the play given by the seniors on April 24. lt was a mystery farce in three acts.

We held graduation exercises in May of 1949. Jim Cravens and Gwen Orussa were given the school awards. We, the class of '49, paid the balance of a movie projector, bought a typewriter and stand, and a wire recorder. Seven- teen of the original class graduated. When Miss Caldwell left, we held a party for her and pre- sented her with several silver dollars. We entered High School the latter part of August. We starred high school with thirty-eight fresh- men. Our freshmen officers were John McCauley, President, Jim Cravens, Vice-President, Gary Bertola, Secretary, and Margie DeJohn, Treasurer. Mr. Cravens was our sponsor. Our Student Council members were John McCauley, Larry Fash, and Frank Bachman. Our first main event was initiation.

Student Council: Roger Wilson, Lee Pretet, Jim Cravens, Bob Luginbuhl, and Margie DeJohn. Our two main events this year were our play, 'Love is Too Much Trouble, and our Jr.-Sr. Banquet. Both were great successes. Senior News On September 2, we entered the halls of R.V.l l.S. as seniors. Initiation of the freshmen was among one of the first events to take place. Everyone had fun and will agree that the freshmen are a swell group to spend our last year with. Recognizing a good president when we see one, we elected Lee Roger Pretet to be our last class president. For Vice-president, John McCauley, Secretary, Marilyn Hangartnerg Treasurer, .lim Gioletti, and Student Council members, Eileen Nauman, John McCauley, Lee Pretet, Gary Bertolo, and Bob Luginbuhl were elected. Our sponsors were Mr. Luallen and Mr. Cravens. Miss Miller helped us with the RoVic and Mr. Luallen and Mr. Koos helped with the lnkwell. We chose silver and royal blue to be our class colors, the 'peace rose' as our class flower, and 'The Road Called Toil Leads to the City Called Success' as our motto. On October 8, we went to Peoria to have our senior pictures taken. Again this year as in years before, we decided to go to Rembrandt's. Our Senior play was given April 24. A gymnasium full of people enioyed the fun-packed play. A chili supper and dance was sponsored on February 28. Everyone in school was invited. Besides that party, we had one which only the seniors attended. On May 'l5 and 16, we went on our class trip. Everyone had a wonderful time and enioyed every bit of the two days that we were gone. We all enioyed the lovely banquet given to us on May 23 by the iunior class. Everyone had a swell time and will agree that the iuniors had put a lot of hard work and time into it. The next evening we held our Baccalaureate services. Class night was the time when we gave each of the iuniors a little token of remembrance, a little gift of something we remembered them by. The great night, May 29, 1953, finally arrives when we graduate from R.V.l'l.S. after four years of unforgettable memories. Everyone agrees that our four years ofhigh school came to an end very quickly and we will never forget those great days of memories. Ag C 8 as -' 8 we ff , A ' K - .9 . fr .

Our fathers gave it to us a generation ago. They told us it would be what we chose to make of it. They made it very plain that an education didn't entitle us to any more of this world than anyone else, merely that with an education we'd be better equipped to face it, meet its challenges. Our fathers told us we'd stand a better chance with an education, and that we'd get more out of life. It was true then, and it's still true now. And then, as though sensing an unspoken thought, our fathers added another word of caution. Nor is an education a substitute for hard work, they smiled. It's just a great help in that work. We offer you the same words as those we received. We offer you the same world, slightly changed, but essentially intact. It's for your hands to improve.
