Market Street Sparta, Illinois Class History The 1960 Bulldog brings to light many fond mem- ories of the past four years at STHS. As freshmen we elected Norma Wesbecher, class president and Homecoming attendant. The high- light of the year occured when Curtis Hayes playea the lead in the freshman play, Professor, How Could You! Our sophomore year we elected Betty DeSpain, class president and LaDonna Mathis, Homecoming attendant. The Freshman-Sophomore basketball team placed first in the conference. Entering our junior year, we sponsored the annual Homecoming Dancr Our attendant was Bettv De- Spain. The class president was Howard Keene. The varsity basketball team, which included several mem- j bers of our class, won two tournaments. Taking our cue from the fiftieth state, Hawaii, we chose South Pacific as our Prom theme. Reaching our senior year, we elected Curtis Hays, class president, and Sharon Hughes, editor ol the Bulldog. The class was well-represented by Verna Lee Gaertner as Homecoming Queen, with Carol Davis and Susie Wysong, as senior attendants. With this, our 1960 Bulldog, we end four mem- orable years at STHS.
