The candidates for king were: George Michals, Gary Hodge, Gene Baker and Johnny Mcisenbach. while the candidates for queen were: Louise Thieman. Darlene Ben- jamin. Clara Gallion and Jane Oliver. The festivities began with the Homecoming assembly where several musical numbers were enjoyed and the can- didates introduced! The highlight of the assembly came when Queen Jane and King Johnny were crowned Home- coming Royalty of 1953. Clara Gallion and Gary Hogc were chosen as princess and prince. The charming couple and their attendants reigned over the football game with Sumner. At half-time the royalty was presented to the audi- ence by being driven around the field in a flashy black convertible. The dance after the game also had an “air of romance ’ in it as the king and queen opened with the first offic- ial dance. The returning grads were very much impressed by the grandeur of the celebration.

formet — “Hornet Editors, B. Olesrud and T. Boland. ROBERT BOEHLKE, Advisor FIRST ROW: J. Bannister, S. Frowen. SECOND ROW: D. Howard, B. Olesrud, W. Bevan. THIRD ROW: J. McDonough, B. Barber, R. Roomy, M. Carlen, R. Lehman. FOURTH ROW: B. McAllister, G. Gentala, T. Woolard. FIFTH ROW: E. Warner, J. Osterdahl, B. Fielding, T. Boland, D. Schwiokel. Under the direction of Mr. Boehlke the journalism class had a very successful year in publishing the school paper. Tom Boland and Betty Olsrude, alternated as editor and assistant editor: as did the rest of the staff to allow everyone a chance to work on the paper. Putting ou the Hornet every other Friday was a big job. Due to lack of facilities the paper was typed, stenciled, and mimeographed right in the journalism class room, with everyone doing his part. To finance the paper the staff sponsored a hobby show which proved a huge success. The staff also had numerous candy sales throughout the year to raise more money. The first few months the staff progressed slowly, as most of them had had no experience in newspaper writing. With the help of Mr. Boehlke, however, the staff soon learned a great deal about the fundamentals essen- tial to putting out a paper. FIRST ROW, loft to right: H. Patrick, B. Fielding, H. Bauman, I. Griener, O. Lingo, W. Anderson, M. Carlen. SECOND ROW: B. Dick- son, D. Benjamin, D. West, M. Neal, A. Conley, R. King. Fourteen students assisted in the work of the school library. Besides their duties at the charging desk, stu- dent librarians helped prepare 190 new books for the shelves. Their work also included typing cards for the card catalogue, filing cards and pamphlets, mending book, keeping the magazine rack, vertical file and book shelves in order. Art displays, book jackets, plants and flowers have made the newly decorated library even more attractive. Mrs. Elison and Mrs. Slette are the faculty librarians and direct the girls in their work.
