Ryer the toast to the juniors, and T. Fostvedt the senior will. M. Anderson, accompanied by S. Dahlager, sang the theme song IF ; D. Enestvedt, accompanied by J. Lerohl, sang Colour My World. Nip 'n Tuck furnished the music for the prom which was held in the beautifully decorated gym- nasium. IF If a picture paints a thousand words, then why can't I paint you? The words will never show the you I've come to know. If a face could launch a thousand ships, then where am I to go? There's no one home but you; you're all that's left me, too. And when my love for life is running dry. You come and pour yourself on me. If a man could be two places at one time I'd be with you Tomorrow and today, beside you all the way. If the world should stop revolving, spinning slowly down to die, I'd spend the end with you and when the world was through, Then one by one the stars would all go out. Then you and I would simply fly away. 41 Will you remember how the guys sat in the hallway every morning and noon how we rushed from band to get our lunch before we rushed to catch the GF bus how the teachers worked to keep our attention when we caught spring fever? But my desk was right here when I left! The usually well-organized and efficient librarian, D. Ramstad, finds his work somewhat frustrating during the remodeling pro- cess, but his usual service con- tinues. Now if I'm not mis- taker, I think that book you want is right here.

Edythe Chernstrom Dowling, who graduated from SHHS in 1918, attended The Minneapolis School of Music and Dramatic Art. After teaching dramatic art in several Minnesota high schools, she entered Columbia University in New York and later started her own School for The Theatre and Dramatic Arts. In 1935 she married Dean Dowling, and they moved to New Jersey, where they started their own business, The Dean Oil Corporation. Mrs. Dowling recalls having a rather limited amount of reading material available while she lived in Sacred Heart. Now she and her husband Dean have formed the Edythe and Dean Dowling Foundation for the purpose of bettering libraries. Dean's hometown of Ozark, Alabama, received a grant similar to that of Sacred Heart. Oscar Davidson, former resident of Sacred Heart and the first person that Mrs. Dowling contracted regarding her gift, is pictured ABOVE with Duane Loe, bank president, and Superintendent Carlson with the first check from the Dowling Foundation. 45 ADMINISTRATION Meet The School VIP’s It takes some Very Important People with perception, perseverance, and a great deal of patience of successfully manage a hectic school program.
