ncn : | ROOSEVELT HIGH SCHOOL EASTERN MICHIGAN UN! V See YPSILANTI, MI Arthur D. Walker, the athletic conscience of R.H.S. has climbed to legendary stature. His long and successful coaching career has earned him the title “Dean of Coaches” in this area of Michigan. His solid silhouette as it paced the sideline under the lights of Briggs Field captured a distinctive place in the memories of all loyal Rooseveltians. Coach Walker bows out this year but to those who have known him he leaves a vital integral part of himself. Coach Walker has dedicated his life to the lives of young men. He has nurtured their will to win on the athletic field and in the classroom. His inspirational halftime talks and warm personal chats molded the prin- ciple of honest endeavour into the character of countless young people. All who have known him have known a winner. We dedicate this yearbook to Mr. A. D. Walker: coach, teacher, and living legend. '] Am A Pert Of AU That Principal Formulates Policies Mrs. Florence Crouch,counsellor, holds her hand steadily on the helm of student affairs. She adheres to the openear policy.

He believes in an experi mental program; day by day he intro- duces new ideas of curricula, student government, and public relations. He sets his goal and moves with determi- nation toward his objective. CUMMUMM Because of Miss Virginia Cooper's busy schedule teaching Latin, social studies, and English, she has little leisure time.

Officers... a Modest folks as we, The Class of ’63, Cannot effectively Relate biography. So from authority - Historian Toynbee We quote this history: R. H. S., chapter 63. ee Andless A. MacDonald i ig Mc “ oe? a September morn 1959 the class of 63 came of age. A band of 57 strong, wise and colorful young giants threw caution to the wind and conformity to the dogs. They plunged headlong into a battle with the forces of high school. The seniors were quick to recognize their strength. Indeed the en- tire school was awed at the charge of the exuberant freshmen class and their arsenal of potential talent. The following year these mighty titans endured a barrage of official welcome — the SOPHOMORE INITIATION. The success of their first dance, “Mistletoe Magic,” paved the way for many more successful social events. Their lovely candidate Barb Baker, ruled as Homecoming Queen. The achievements of their sophomore year were climaxed with the arrival of class rings. For the class of ’63, already the pride of the school, the junior year was a whirl of activities: clubs. athletics, open- houses, dramatics, and more openhouses. Vigorous campaigning paid off when Dan Cox and Kirk Leighton won top posts, presi dency and vice presidency, respectively, of the Student Coun- cil. The high point of the year was hosting the Junior-Senior Prom. There they waved goodbye to the outgoing seniors. Now they had reached the rank of seniors, and they had truly become giants. They had grown into leaders. and they were looked up to and respected by the younger members of their domain — Roosevelt. Their name was painted on the highest towers; their athletes were the finest: their parties the most fascinating; their minds the most refined. They marched through their senior year with the poise and confidence of a hero enjoying a ticker tape parade in New York. Grasping their diplomas they heaped praise on themselves and their sponsors, Miss Thelma McAndless and Mr. Alister MacDonald.” a .

Conformity to the Dogs’ Juniors Promote Excellence Wem Academics The junior class has added much to Roosevelt. The boys play their part in the many sports while the girls cheer them on to victory. They have participated in Student Council and the various club activities. A highlight for the Class of 64 was the Junior-Senior Prom. Another exciting project was the plays. The juniors showed their special skills and the plays proved educational and enjoyable. As juniors they have been looking forward to the time when they will be seniors, in full control of the Senior Stairs and legally entitled to paint the tower.

New Class Rings Worn By Sophs This year’s sophomores, with the aid of Miss Jean Frazer and Mr. William Saulsberry, have become known for their varied enter- prises. Many sophomores are happy to show off the certificates they earned after many long hours of drivers education. They are also very happy to show off their new class rings to anyone around. This class has been very active in extra curricular activities. Sponsoring the freshmen initiation was one of their big activities of the year. With this and many other successes behind them, they prepare, as the year closes, to become juniors. As Sophomores the marvals of bi- ology are studied by most.

Upon initiation to the high school in September, the freshmen began making the most of their opportunities. They signed up for all manner of high school activities, and supported them all with exciting enthusiasm. Sports-wise they were good, leader- wise they were good and knowledge-wise they were good. The freshman class has been known for their fun parties and get-to- gethers. They got along well with each other and have had lots of wholesome fun. They chose good student government repre- sentatives and able class officers. Phyllis Adams Freshman Class Officers, (l-r).

Pinafore. Eighth Grade Beams with Spirit Karen The eighth grade under the supervision of Mr. Benedict Tomczak asseeinaaea and Mr. Charles Alexander, has been active this year. These peppy cheerers supported our athletic teams. Being the eldest members of the junior high, they hosted many junior high fun nights. They have been hard at work plan- ning class parties and other social functions. As June draws closer and closer, they become excited about Barbero the possible dangers of senior high. Although they anxiously await the freshmen initiation, they are not eager to relinquish their posts as the older statesmen of the junior high. Blasey Mark Alexander Susan Cleeton Jody A star is born!

These eager junior high students dash into the auditorium, greedy to seize their seats. Then they dance out to win friends and influence teachers. In the first month or so of the bubbling, they discovered the joys of fun nights, games, and of working out a few problems.

Crocker On December 4, a group consisting of all the senior girls in Roosevelt High School congre- gated in the home economics room to take part in the National Betty Crocker Test. The exami- nation, administered by home economics teacher, Miss Mary Adams, is designed to test general home-making aptitudes. The test involves areas a from meal planning to interior decorating. Laurie Sanzi, recipient of the highest score in the National Betty Crocker test, jots down a few recipes. Mary Van Black, ex-Girls’ Stater, descends the stairs. Her busy daily schedule keeps her on the move. Each year the RHS faculty selects ten per cent of the junior class and fifteen per cent of the senior class for membership in the Roosevelt Chapter of the National Honor Society. The candidates are chosen on the basis of citizen- ship, scholarship, leadership, and service. The members are initiated in the spring of each year at the annual Honors Assembly by Miss. Virginia Cooper, the chapter’s sponsor. Mary Van Black, as a junior, represented Roose- velt High School at the 1962 Girls’ State. The establishment of this mythical state on the University of Michigan campus in June of 1962 was sponsored by the American Legion auxiliary. During the activities which lasted six days the representatives ran for positions in their created state government.

This grand ensemble of wind and string players finally gained its well earned days of glory through well attended performances at school assemblies and public concerts. The ex- pert guidance of Dr. Maurce Riley assisted by various student directors successfully rehearsed the musically talented students to a point of near perfection. Band mothers spent many hours on their hot lunch program in order to buy new band uniforms. The colorful notes of the Roosevelt High School Band,under the baton of Dr. Maurice Riley, provided glitter and gaiety to the foot- ball season. The musical Rough Riders com- bined the precision and timing of marching with the triumphant soundof percussion and brasses to give the grid iron crowd a splen- did, upliiting show. After boosting the foot- ball squad to numerous victories and repre- senting the Red and Gray at the University of Michigan Band Day the band members stored away their marching shoes and field drums to prepare for the future concert schedule. Several spirited programs were given for students, faculty, and parents. To close the year a special concert was given to honor graduating senior bandsmen.

Despite these handicaps, the RHStrackmen performed well in many cones. Captain Lewis Shaefer chalked up a number of wins, and John Maxwas outstanding in the pole vault.

With most of the team’s regu- lars returning from last year, and with a flock of newcomers on hand to boost the RHS cause, Morris was able to mold the team into a solid unit.
