From the April 22, 2020, MidWeek "Looking Back."
1920, 100 Years Ago.
"The High School Cadets are not marking time since they received the new equipment of guns and rifles from the government.
"Wednesday two squads of the company were out for target practice and used the bank of the Kishwaukee River as a backstop. The boys used the regular ball ammunition and some of them made very good scores."
Students with guns? Well, it was a different time, wasn't it?
These students were probably the forerunner of today's JROTC at DeKalb High School.
