HAIL, AAIL, THE HANG'S ALL HERE.... FOR THE ORANGE AND BLACK • • ■ • (dzntznniat edition Editor SHIRLEY BRENNEN Art Editor MARVIS MAJOR 1 PUBLISHED BY THE ASSOCIATED STUDENTS ROSEBURG, OREGON DEDICATION In memory of the spirit of the pioneers, we, the yearbook staff of 1953, do dedicate the 1953 Umpqua to all the pioneers who made the great west possible. Had it not been for their courage and indomitable spirit, the modern empire in which we live today would be nothing more than a wild, rugged wilderness. 2 Although 1953 was not the commemorating year of the Centennial, we the annual staff of 1953, thought it only fitting to choose a theme in connection with that great event. 1 he hun- dred year span was from 1852 to 1952, and does deserve some lasting recognition from Roseburg High. Great strides toward modernization took place during Douglas County’s one hundred years of existence. Hundreds of pioneers struggled against great odds to settle this country' and to them we will forever owe a debt of gratitude and thankfulness. We, of the staff, sincerely hope that you enjov the theme which we have chosen and that the many added features will bring you happy memories in the years to come. • • ■ ■ LIFE “Life goes on” indeed. From the first ot the year, when initiation took up the time and energy of both the old-timers, the seniors, and the new- comers, the freshmen. Another early event ot the fall semester was the O.E.A. tea given for the senior girls. I he year was sparked with many as- semblies, and pep talks from Mr. Purdy. Many students, Pepsters, and townspeople attended the home and out-of-town games during the year. Even with great concentration on sports, classes were not neglected, as the Orange R staff proved, bv pub- lishing a bi-monthly paper to keep the students informed with up-to-the- minute news. Another class who worked as hard out of class as it did in class, was the annual staff, who published the R.H.S. yearbook. Freshmen learn quickly to conform to the wishes of seniors during initiation. The senior girls enjoyed a lovely tea given for them by the O.E.A. Pepsters presented a gay-nineties” skit as a pep assembly before a district game. Mr. Purdy made like a yell leader, as he led the student body in a rousing cheer. GOES ON _____ ■HE� Pepsters and students wave a hopeful and cheerful goodby as they leave for a game. Orange R students are given helpful advice from their advisor, Mr. Rowe. Studying page layouts and typing copy was a familiar oc- cupation for the annual staff. The cluttered Orange R room shows how progress is made in printing a paper. Annual advisor, Mr. Fruitt, and part of his staff, do some picture identifications. ELMER STRITZKE Class of 1953 A. S. B. PRESIDENT Elmer Stritzke, or better known as “Mickey,” was truly one ol the most dependable and effic- ient A.S.B. presidents R.I I.S. has had for a long time. The pleasant, yet brisk and business-like manner in which he led the student body, com- bined with his energy and interest in his work made his career as president a successful one. Although always busy with his many ob- ligations and duties, he always had time to give everyone a pleasant smile and a friendly hello. 8 IKE WOOTEN Business Wwnoger m gilbert Sgt.-at-arms C0U8CI1 student MOST LIKELY TO SUCCEED: Shirley Brennen Jim Oerding MOST TALENTED: Mollie Fullerton Jerry Feldkamp MOST SCHOLARLY: Shirley Kocken Richard Duvall THEY ARE CAY MOST SCHOOL SPIRITED: Chuck SeCoy Sandra Rapp MOST ATHLETIC: Buddy Backen Shirley White MOST STYLISH: Lois Patterson Jack Katzenmeyer MOST FRIENDLY: Herman Oberholzer RaNae Cottrell BEST FIGURE AND BUILD: Ronnie Hicks Donna Hayes BEST DANCERS: Dick Kerr Carol Aiken THE?

The girls were selected by a secret board, with Miss Randall as the faculty supervisor. All the girls selected had certain require- ments and qualities which they had to meet before they were eligible for nomination. All the girls were looked upon as outstanding in their class, and as contributory toward the betterment of the school.

FACULTY ffpx r 24 SENIOR SESSIONS The year 1953 was a golden one; it marked the end of high school for our Senior Class, and the beginning of a prosperous luture for us also. '51 was our first year together in Senior 1 ligh, and even then we won acclaim for our turnout on the Red Cross Drive. Our class play fantasy, “Green Valley,” was a hugh success for the exciting year of 52. To end that vear, was the beautiful Junior-Senior Prom, “Garden In The Rain.” Then the inevitable and event- ful year of 1953 rolled around. This was a year of laughter and tears, with dances and royalty galore. Our carnival, “Street In Paris,” was one of the gayest events of the year. Following that, was the class play, Brighten The Corner. In the final rush week was our Senior Picnic and Ban- quet. With tear stained faces, we then turn to the next item on our graduation agenda, Bac- calaureate Sendee, which preceeded our final commencement exercises, May 25, when we said our last farewell to Roseburg High.

WILLRETT CARL WOODWARD ALL Charlotte, or better known as “Chuckie” was chosen as the “outstanding senior girl” from a se- lected group of girls, and as the years progress, Chuckie is sure to be outstanding in anything she does. OufoUlttcUtty, Charlotte Sand, or better known as “Chuckie”, was born in Roseburg on Aug- ust 5, 1935 at Mercy Hospital. She at- tended grade school at Fullerton and the ninth grade was spent in Junior High. When Chuckie was in the ninth grade, she was a member of the Pow Wow staff, the Junior High paper. In her sophomore year, Chuckie was a member of I ri Hi Y. In her junior year Chuckie really went to town in the way of club and school activi- ties. She was president of Junior Tri I Ii Y and treasurer of the Junior Class. She be- longed to Honor Society and was a Junior Prom Princess. In her senior year Chuckie continued the many activities she started as a Junior and added to them some. She was secretary of both Girls’ League and the A.S.B. She also was voted Girl of the Month and was a Senior Class Carnival Princess. From this impressive record it’s easy to see that Charlotte will be a big success no matter where she goes or what she does after leaving R.H.S. 40 STARS Senioni. Steve was selected on the same basis as Chuckie was, and although Steve isn’t a native of Roseburg, that will make no difference in the success he will achieve in the years to come. 1 he most outstanding boy of the Senior class was Steve Danchok, a transfer from Sutherlin in 1951. Steve is considered an all-round champion in whatever field he undertakes. Mis activities in sports are what first brought him to the attention of the Student Body. In his Junior year Steve played football, basketball, and last but not least, baseball. He received letters in base- ball and football. His other activities in- cluded Honor Society and decorating for the Jr. Sr. Prom. In his Senior year, Steve received the following honors: letters in basketball, base- ball and football; the outstanding football player of the year trophy given by the Lions Club, and for Sub-District AllStars, he played on the second string. He also re- ceived honorable mention in Sub-District for basketball. I lis other activities are as varied as his sports. Steve was a member of the R-Club in his junior year, and in his senior year, he was secretary-treasurer, and the same of- fice in Boys League. Lie was manager of a Carnival Princess at the Senior Carnival. The Senior Class voted Steve the Most Versatile Boy. 41 FRONT ROW: Brian Booth, president; Don Carter, treasurer; Norman Nibbletts, sergeant-ot-orms.

To start things off, basketball schedule pencils were sold. Several cake sales were also held to raise class funds. During the March of Dimes campaign, many different ac- tivities were held to raise money. The Junior Class play was presented in the spring. Ending the year, the juniors decorated for the commencement exercises. Many juniors were lettermen and some were out- standing in basketball and football. The junior class showed keen competition and sportsmanship while working for points toward the inter-class cup. Thirty- seven juniors were elected to membership in the Na- tional Honor Society this year. With 277 enrolled, the class of ’54 was led through the year by class officers, Brian Booth, president; Cindy Randall, vice-president; Don Carter, treasurer; and Jim Gilbert, sergeant-at-arms. Donna Ellison was council representative. Class advisors were Miss Smith and Mr. Ballentyne who assisted and guided the class officers.

Their good sportsmanship marked them as a co-operative and willing class. They were called upon many times to contribute their services and themselves to Roseburg 1 Iigh, and each time they rose to the occasion willingly and with many helpful sugges- tions to make projects successful. Early in the year the freshmen elected capable officers in the persons of Lee Stout, president; Jim Coen, secretary-treasurer; Ronnie Sanders, sergeant-at-arms; Johnny Joelson, and Beverly Sims, representatives. Under the leadership of Bobo Moore, and Mr. Barneck, the freshman class showed great promise for their future years of service to Roseburg High.

Street In Paris, was carried out appropriately with a Sidewalk Cafe. Princesses situated throughout the armory sold tickets during the carnival to further their chances of becoming queen. Queen managers were: Steve Danchok, Janet; Elmer Slritzke, Chuckie; Bob Brandt, Rona; Tom Burke, Loneita; Ron Groves, Nancy; Jim Ridgeway, Roberta; Bill Glarenbach, Carol, and Don Clark, Betty. Dick Kerr, Senior class president, crowned queen Carol I. The Senior Class presented its carnival, Street In Paris, on November 5, 1952, at the Roseburg Armory. Senior Class President, Dick Kerr, crowned Carol Aiken queen, at 10:30 p.m. Queen Carol ruled majestically over her throng of well wish- ers. She was assisted by her gracious court who were princesses: Roberta Adams, Nancy Allen, Janet Hargis, Charlotte Sand, Betty Shoults, and Rena Van I lorn. The courts managers were: Bill Clarenbach, Jim Ridgeway, Ronnie Groves, Steve Danchok, Mickey Stritzke, Don Clark, and Bob Brandt respectively.

Contestants for the carnival prin- cesses were selected by the Senior Class and advisors. I he princess who brought in the most money became queen. Concessions drew much favor and as a re- sult, the gross profit was $1,000. Proceeds from the festivities will be used for Senior Skip day, and a class gift to the school.

This dance was the last large social event of 1952. Dancing beneath the stars proved to be something en- joyably different at this year's Christmas Ball. Dancing, and ming. ling with friends omid a sparkling setting made the Ball a popular dance, attended by students from all four classes. The band, situated on the stage, had os a backdrop, a glistening six foot snowflake. Decorated in silver and blue, the theme was staged with large, lumin- ous stars suspended from the ceiling. I hese stars shone brightly against blue spotlights, which served as the sky. Silver studded snow flakes dotted the two side walls of the gym, and green Christmas trees sprinkled with angel hair lined the bleachers. “The Lowland Sea was a tragic-sea-love story produced by the advanced and Jr.-Sr. Mixed Chorus classes, under the direc- tion of Mr. Wendell Johnson.

I ogether with the tough schedule and the injury laden first eleven, the In- dians saw a not too successful season. Head Coach Bill Reder and his assistant, Keith Moore, worked hard to produce a fighting team of Indians who were giving it all they had every game. However, mid- season injuries plus lack of depth cut their record of wins to two games for the season. Steve Danchok was the first player to win the Inspira- tional Player award three times and became permanent possessor. The numerous injuries forced the coaches to dip deep into the reserves and produced some fine prospects for next year's team. Steve Danchok, fullback, Herman Oberholzer, guard, and Ron Hicks, end, were chosen for all district second team. This year the football squad has had the backing and full support of the townspeople and the students of R.I I.S.
