Linda Ogle, surrounded by memorabilia related to the Class of 1962 at her home in Champaign, is a longtime organizer of reunions for her Urbana High School class. Those items include (clockwise from upper left) a Dog n Suds tray and mugs, a stuffed tiger, Steak 'n Shake dishes, a cookbook featuring recipes from Urbana High alumni, the 1962 Rosemary yearbook, an old typing textbook and saddle shoes.

The person who keeps the 1962 Urbana High School alumni loyal to the class motto and class get-togethers is Linda Racer Ogle of Champaign. "I'm the glue that keeps us together," Ogle admitted.

The classmates meet Saturday night for a reunion at the Laborers Union Hall in Urbana.
