The fac- ulty of Rochester High School are the students' leaders and advisers, and they are willing and able to assist the students whenever they desire. The faculty, however. helps us to create within ourselves an independent atti- tude which is essential in a democratic institution such as our school. ir ir if ir F. W.

X r SENIIIB CLASS llIST0llY In the fall of 1938, a large group of slightly green freshmen entered the doors of R. H. S. and soon became loyal students. They first gained recognition by being well represented on the honor roll. They became organized as a class in the fall of 1940, choosing Miss Barrett as sponsor. The leaders of the class were Jean Emmons, presidentg Selena Peterson, vice-president: Jean Gohn, secretaryg Clyde Bick, treas- urer. The following spring the class presented Hobgoblin House. On May 23 they entertained the seniors at the prom held at the Colonial Hotel. When they were seniors, new officers were chosen-J im Shelton, presi- dentg Jean Emmons, vice-president, Betty Jennens, secretaryg Clyde Bick, treasurer. Their play, Laughing Gas, was given October 21. Several of the students participated in commercial contests. Their high school career was completed by three important events: a prom given by the jun- iors, baccalaureate, May 24, and commencement, May 27. Many scholarships were earned during the senior year. Jim Shelton was valedictorian. Olive Jane Koomler won the D. A. R. award. HONOR ROLL HONORABLE MENTION Jim Shelton . . 4.46 Martha Miller . 3.4 Jean Emmgng I DOYIHZ.

Ig i 'A' ctivities In Rochester High, a.s in the whole United States, we have been developing a democratic society. Just a.s in the national government, where certain or- ganizations are important, here, too, groups exist for the common good of all. On the next few pages we present to you a picture of the activities which take place in Rochester High School. ir ir ir if if 'A' 'lr 'k ,..,..-v TIIE Ill-Y FLUB 'A' Two treasure hunts, an alumni banquet, an act at the fall festival, two dances along with the regular supper meetings kept the Hi-Y Club very busy this year.

The students of R. H. S. have a voiceg one that reveals the goings on around school and prints those things which are of interest to the students. This voice is Station R. H.

Including the Wabash tournament and the sectional tournament, the Zebras triumphed in twelve games and went down in defeat in the other twelve. The Zebras defeated Peru and Wabash to annex the Wabash Invi- tational Tourney, making this their third year in a row to win these invi- tational tournaments. Their most successful trip this year was a journey 150 miles from home to defeat the Columbus Bulldogs 35 to 33 in an over- time game. The heartbreaker of the season was in the sectional at Wina- mac when the Zebras failed to hit the hoop and were downed by the Fulton Bulldogs 23 to 13. The Lylemen this year scored 677 points to their op- ponents 729. This year's squad was composed of two seniors, Bob Ross-Shannon and Ward McCarty and six juniors, Dick King, Joe Stansbury, Jack Killion, Bill Krieghbaum, Tom DuBois, and Joe Callahan. Also during part of the year and sectional time Don Reed and Wayne Reddinger were borrowed from the Colts. The free throw award this year went to Dick Stinky King making 51 out of 77 tries for 66 2f'10 per cent average. We would also like to pay due praise to a boy who did not play this year, but he kept the basketball equipment and material in ship-shape condition. This boy is Larry Braman, student manager.
