Dondero senior Ken Collier took his camera to school one day in search of such odd angles of familiar sights. These are two of the shots he made. Chances are most Royal Oak stu- dents will not come close in guessing what they are looking at. What is contained in the picture above? ls it some new, abstract forest? But there are no forests around the school. Perhaps the bleachers seen from the ground? Wrong again. A hint for the clever guesser: Have you ever dropped your pencil in the Auditorium? Where on earth does Dondero hide those kidneys on the right? Have they started a new pre-med class? No, those aren't kidneys. In tact, it's nothing pickled in Mr. Tenhave's room. And don't try looking for pipes exposed in walls or ceilings - the building is better constructed than that. Another clue for those attempting to identity the mysterious photos: this is a new angle of something that has been famous for a century. For the correct identity of these pictures, turn to the advertising pages in the back of the book. , . fww Q . tm , K Q., ar . N. Jig r. U 4.

This was the first year that a Royal Oak high school instrumental music group was awarded a First Division - in fact, it was the first time an RO orchestra even entered the contest. Here, Mr. Yenovk Kavafian, the orchestra's conductor, leads his strings at their hourlong rehearsal, which is a part of their regular school day. EMPTY CLASSROOMS and poor grades typified the effects the epidemic of Asian Flu had upon the student body at Dondero. During an especially hard-hit period, as many as 600 students were absent from classes lout of a possible 22001. OAK Editorial 1 l To you, the 1958 graduates, we present this message. Four years ago we entered Royal Oak High School for the first time. Our backgrounds were as varied as the iunior high schools from which we came, At that time we knew little of each other. Those of us who have finished the trek together are now friends. We have given, each in his own way, to the personality of our schools as they have contributed to each of us. We are among the last of the Royal Oak graduates. ln the future there is the prospect of Dondero and Kimball graduations. True, two schools will hold commencements for senior classes this year, but the classes have been united throughout most of their careers. ln two years the graduating seniors will come from two schools, never having known each other with the possible exception of casual acquaintances and athletic competition. Because the T958 classes entered one high school together and worked through most of their academic careers together, the full impact of the growing problem of two high schools is not felt by us. But the line for this problem has already been drawn, and it creates this question for the future: Will there be a graduation from the Royal Oak High Schools unified in spirit, or will it be a city of Dondero and Kimball graduates bred in distrust and ill feeling? lt is with the solution of this problem in mind that we address ourselves to the future graduates of Royal Oak. These are your schools. ln time they will be what you have helped to fashion. The problems of growth that caused the existence of two high schools are far beyond your powers, but the will to attack and solve this distur- bance is within your grasp. Through mutual understanding these problems may be resolved within the satisfying bonds of common interests and scholastic unity. There ure People we never forget A good counsellor is much more than an able ad- ministrator. True, he must know the proper pro- cedures and methods of counselling, but it is equally important that he be a friend to his stu- dents. The counsellor helps lay out the path of future life in the choosing of the subiects to be pursued during high school. To the adults of tomorrow, who choose their life's work while in high school, the advice of their counsellor is invaluable. While in his care, a student's grades depend largely on the counsellor, who must check that the student is always working to his capacities. Not only must he schedule the hundreds of students in- to the classes they desire to take, but he must listen to the complaints of the few who aren't satisfied. A counsellor really has his work cut out for him when his charges become seniors. He guides them through the yard-long college applications, the countless questions on scholarship blanks, and the tons of red tape connected with high school. With- out his reminders and gentle prodding, many sen- iors would have applied for college entrance too late for acceptance. Not only does he help college prep students. Many have received co-op training through the tireless efforts of their counsellor in helping squeeze the schedule to fit the individual, not vice-versa. We at Dondero feel especially fortunate and proud in having by our side through high school an extremely capable and likeable man. For help- ing us through numerous difficulties, for providing a shoulder to cry on, and for being a very wonder- ful person, we, the classes of January and June 1958, dedicate this yearbook to our counselor and friend, Mr. Terry Hood. MR ALBERT WEISE AND MISS NORMA CAMPBELL assistant principals pose for an informal picture before their offices Classes Change With the Season From the time the lanitors unlock the doors at 7 20 faculty and students enter the school to work at their varied tasks before the rush of the actual day began In the autumn months they were accompanied by the sound of the marching band whtch drilled every morning from 700 When winter brought a late dawn early rehearsals of choir orchestra and band filled the halls with echoing music Occasionally members of the Forestry club could be found in the pool long before 7 OO as they had their fveryl early swim Oak staff members worked furiously to meet deadlines often accompanied by Acorn editors doing last minute copy work ln the balmy spring weather students arrived early to congregate in cars and on the lawn before homeroom began At 8 30 school officially started The bell sounded and lingering couples parted hurriedly in a dash for their respective home rooms Groups deep in conversation dispersed with amazing quickness hoping their teachers wouldnt fund them tardy Those who had waited too long found them selves in the office requesting tardy permits Cor ridor patrols took their places the PA began its spell and the day was under way Those first twenty minutes were all things to all people Many used the period for study catching up on homework not completed the night before Some found time to snooze The supply store hummed with activity as paper and pencils and theme paper made their way into the hands of those who needed them. The library staff delivered over due slips on books to those delinquent in returning them. Movie Club members prepared films to be shown- the set up crew arranged the band room for rehearsal. Blue slips were issued in the office for late comers and penalty hours were handed out in home rooms for the same offence. After bulletins were read attendence taken and the P.A. announcements - dured the rumble of conversation increased u til it often became a roar- and when those twenty minutes were exhausted the sound of the bell for the first hour classes caused the rooms to cough out their occupants into the flood of students making their way to classes.

OUTSTANDING PERFORMERS, BAND AND ORCHESTRA The concert band, in its second year of existence as such at Dondero, expanded its membership by some 25 freshmen. As only four seniors graduated last June and but five in 1958, this augmented the band to almost 70 musicians. A highly com- petitive group, the concert band is entered only by audition. Extra rehearsals were a necessity with the bands tightly- packed schedule. At 7:15 A.M. the practice rooms in the new wing which houses the music rooms were a iumble of sound as the various sections rehearsed individually to gain the polish necessary for a fine performance. Often the entire band rehearsed at this hour, making the near-empty halls THE ORCHESTRA which boasts a bass section of three Cone not picturedj, poses for our photographer before entering the pit echo. Their assiduous efforts resulted in a prized superior rating in district competition, the first such rating in Dondero's history. In its second year under the able baton of their director, Mr. Yenovk Kavafian, the orchestra enlarged both its membership and scope. Recruiting'wind instrument players from the concert band, the group gave two concerts, one in coniunction with the band, at which it skillfully performed works by Haydn, Vivaldi, and Mozart. Entering the contest, the first time and Royal Oak orchestra has done so, they also earned a first division fsuperiorj rating. Other times the orchestra was heard were the senior plays, convocations, and commencements. to march the January graduates down the aisle at their com mencement. f S f' x I I ,AF I Q ,K u q 1 Q m 5 6' f f ilxql f ' N 'tr v , . . r Rf, X' 'ral 'rv M al 1 Q 'M' 'Q' ff i 'I' ,.

JIM SIERENS RUNS with the aid of Royal Oak's blockers John Kerr 155, John Goddard ISI, and Doug Francis 0129, in ground gain during the Wyandotte game. ACORNS FINISH The 1957 football season featured both a broken string and an unbreakable one. Hazel Park managed for the first time in twenty years to defeat Dondero, and the Grosse Pointe iinx still hangs heavy 143-OJ over the heads of the Don- dero gridders. Not all football news was bad, though. Hewitt Hornbeck and Gary Banks both made The Daily Tribune's All-SOC Class A team and the season ended with a 4-4-I record. The tie was with Birmingham and seemed a fitting end of the longtime rivalry that exists between the F OURTH IN B.C.l.. two schools. This game provided one of the many thrills of the season when Dondero came from behind to score in the last quarter and Gary Banks converted the tying point. Against Ferndale, on a freezing, muddy night, the Oaks had to slosh from behind again with Banks scor- ing twice. All season Coach Ivy Loftin was plagued with iniuries, and even the Asian Flu, which pro- longed the season a week, served to make his initial season a memorable one. JIM DINGMAN LEAPS over halfback Gary Banks and goes around the Wyandotte defense for a ten yard gain. RECORD OPP.

The bulk of the team is underclassmen and although it might not help this year, the experience gained should prove invaluable next year. The team will be stronger in the running events, although the field events do have some good prospects.

There always seemed to be something to do. Sports events were a big attraction, especially home football and basket- ball games. The spectators came in droves to view the contest, then departed for an after-game dance, pizza at Gel- io's, or a Coke at the Pole. Parties and open houses flourished, and many girls lost sleep at slumber parties. In warm weather the local drive-ins found many Dondero stu- dents present, and movie theaters were always busy. Other school functions were popu- lar, Attendance at theatrical produce tions like the senior plays and Browsin' on Broadway were al- most a must . The auditorium was crowded, also, at the choir, band, and orchestra concerts. Even without dates or a special destinations, students made the weekends nights to be out, Some spent entire evenings drifting from the Pole to the Big Boy to Ted's to Dan's and back to the Pole. Parties often occurred spontaneously when the drifters congregated at some- one's home for dancing and Cokes, Never a weekend passed without a large number of students out, living the special lives that only high school students can.

' LK V,'f- 4 I - Y I As sophomores, the class faded into obscurity for a while, as the short school day lengthened out into fuller programs. Adiusting to biology class was one of the high points of that year. Those little frogs were much too cute to be sacrificed for the cause of science. Most seniors, however, don't remember or want to remember being sophomores. During their iunior year, though handicapped by the long day, the class began to come out of its shell and create a life for itself in the school. There were countless little distinctions of that year, like Mr. Hartwig's scavenger hunts, which sent students searching for impossible information, half of which didn't even exist. There were, of course, those ten minute speech days, when girls hobbled down the halls in high heeled shoes, and the boys endured stiff white collars. There were the valiant struggles to understand Miss Moore's discussions of conditioning and choosing, the election of class officers, and the hours of excited planning for the senior trip. That senior trip with sunburned faces, cold nights cabins the size of closets and scalded coffee will long be remembered as one of the highest points of their school years. This year had its sad moment too, when many friends, some of whom had been fellow classmates since junior high, left the old RODHS to become part of the new Kimball High. Finally the class made it! Though many had doubted that they'd see the day, they were seniors! No longer beneath any class, the seniors strode forth taking in hand the leadership and gaiety of school life. Selling hot dogs at football games, and yelling 'til voices were hoarse, was as much a part of the senior year as sociology and government. There was never a dance, skating party, or pep rally that the seniors were left out of. The life of the party, they enioyed to the most every aspect of their last high school year. And as every class before, they left their mark upon the school. In the hearts of all who knew them, in the traditions they started or renewed, and in the minds of every member of their graduating class, a storehouse of memories was bound tying together the events of their high school years THE CLASS DAVE ALLEN FRED ALLOR BOB ARLIN ESTHER BAKKEN KATHERINE BATTLES DAVE BECKMAN NANCY BEHM 14 BARBARA BIDINGER HARLEAN BROMLEY CAROL BROWN ea.

Having finally reached 12th grade, and being fairly confident of graduating, they can approach their work with self assurance. No longer pursuing a course simply for the benefit of a grade, English lit, sociology, physics, government, trig and comp offer a challenge and inspiration to most seniors. Self-motivated, if at any time in school life, they find their own curiosity enough cause to study and learn, SOCIOLOGY PROVIDES many inter- esting discussions as evidenced by the rapt expressions of Mrs. Hindes' class. rfvrenl .

Among them was the aboli- tion of the accustomed home room period. Not having a homeroom made difficult the devel- opment of the unity which would establish the class of January '58. This policy was continued throughout the Freshmen and Sophomore Years. HOMEROOMS WHEN AVAILABLE meant time to study and exchange ideas in the day's home- work-this is homeroom 215. ln eleventh grade the home rooms were re- established. Although the schedules were still split, the home rooms added somewhat to the stability of the day. They provided a time in which to talk to friends that you seldom saw throughout the rest of the day. As Seniors the class of '58 found the home room system secure. Homerooms now began each day, and unity was established. Each group began to function together. Homerooms were now back to normal and afforded an op- portunity to discuss important matters of the class, talk to your friends, and put the finishing touches on last minute homework. Kathy Hershberger, Linda Heiser, Lynn Living- ston, Donna Kennedy, and Bob Sakkinen of IOS move for the door at the signal for first hour. S 0 C I A L DISCUSSION filled much of the time be- tween P.A.s-here one cor- nf-fv ner of 3I7.goes its way. Election Begins Year January 12A activvies a though they were split by the summer had some continuity and gave highlight to the senior year, Al- most beyond memory is the election campaigning that finished the iunior year, and the 1957 senior party given to announce the new 12B officers and begin their senior year. In that first semester the acti-.Wes were closely woven with those of the graduating 1957 c-ass. There was a senior tea. senior square dance parties, and May Hey Day to raise money for the new scholarship fund. But most important of all was the Mackinaw trip. Perhaps the climax for the 1957 class activities, the trip gave the January class the True feeling of being a senior and initiated them into the realm of leadership and clowning. Clowning and fun came first on the trip that featured the talents of Bob Arlin and Marlene Buckner in the show. Water guns also help their own especially the tommy gun type with a months supply and Marlene Buckner in the talent show. Water guns also held their own, especially the tommy gun type with a month's water supply. THE CHICKEN was one of the show features of the senior trip, as demonstrated by Bob Arlin to the music of the Fabulous Playboys. I ONE OF THE FIRST DUTIES of class officers John Erick son, president and Judy Mast, vice-president was to lead the procession of graduating seniors in June 1957. Commencement dance and the end of the school year closed out the first term of the senior year. Perhaps the most spon- taneous effort of the class as a whole was found for the occasion. Hawaiian Sunset was the dance theme. The weather changed rather violently on the trip home. The meals were made difficult, if not impossible. by the rock- ing and swaying of the boat which made plates, glasses, and silverware slide to and fro and sometimes off the unbalanced tables. September began another season, and football provided the setting for the first activities. Hazel Park was here for the first game and more January graduates turned out for that game than any other. The money for that game helped to increase the senior treasury. Three senior parties were held in the fall. At the first one the 12B officers were announced. The parties were held in the new girls gym with its pleasant pastel shades. Just before Christmas the new formal dance, which took the place of the oid Turkey Day game dance, was initiated. lt was called White Christmas and aptly opened the formal social season. For the January graduates Castle in the Clouds was the conclusion to the school and senior years. 3282 1 Y, 5 J JA NYU' U i - Ib X .ww N -.. A . 515. is 'fi 0' i Q. ,f 1 , 6.3M K A.

As every class reflects its personality in the functions it per- forms, so has the June '58 senior class reflected her bubbling vitality. Football and basketball seasons were accompanied by rousing seniors, who never let a game end without buzzing the Tote , or dropping into Gelio's for pizza. Senior parties broke the boredom of at home nights and helped bring the class together. The Christmas season rushed in with a new tradition at Dondero, plunging seniors waist deep into crepe paper, lights, and trees, as they worked tirelessly to present a breath-taking White Christmas dance. A new semester and another dance gave seniors little time to recuperate from holiday festivities. Once again creative hands went to work as a Castle in the Clouds commencement dance became a reality. Sharply contrasting to the heavenly atmospheres were the definitely rough products of the senior boys' beard growing contest. Skating, skiing, tobogganing, and paiama parties were as much a part of senior life as school itself, and brought even closer together the bonds of friendship so cherished during high school years. ALTHOUGH THIS LOOKS LIKE COMPLETE MAYHEM - maybe it is - it is actually a meeting of the homeroom representatives. The representatives meet to discuss class problems. .9 s Y 1 s 1 'V ' 1 1 A -Al if Su. x 1 3 I g R L li A GREG EASTWOOD PRESIDENT KATHLEEN KIM KEZLARIAN VICE PRESIDENT LINDA LENAWAY SECRETARY JIM DINGMAN TREASURER MARJORIE SHUMAN VALEDICTORIAN ANNE SPEER SALUTATORIAN 88 K Ru. ,. .ga 4 JERRY w. 3 ABSTON ?

OAK, ACORN, WOAK Enjoying both a popular and respected reputation among Dondero students, the Acorn and Oak strive to fulfill a literary need and summarize the events of every school year. ln the midst ot last minute homeroom studies, the bi-monthly Acorn offers a pleasant relief from monot- ony, and spices the day with bits of news and issues for conversation. Preceeding every Acorn publication, the 3l5lf2 cubbyhole is a massive chaos, last minute articles are stretched and squeezed, while the ambitious staff works furiously to meet deadline. Little the students ever know of this literary feat, as calmly the Acorn makes her appearance on Friday morn. Hard work and untiring drive conclude every school year with a book compiled memories, the Oak. Long the symbol of life at Dondero, this book is the culmination ot a year's activities, and the result of ceaseless ene'gy on the part of the Oak staff. . , -iiuki coi1NE K t jf. x I 4 t ix ' I THE ACORN STAFF is hard at work as usual devouring pizza at the Acorn Christmas party.
