The clock movement from the 1902 DeKalb High School was saved and stored. It is now being restored for installation into the new school opening fall 2011.
Scott Williams, a DHS science teacher, brought us this image during the design development meetings for the new school. The picture shows the clock movement just after the clock was put into storage at Clinton Rosette Middle School. This movement can turn a dial 4' to 8' in diameter and ring a bell 500 to 2500 lbs.
Interesting to think of the connection between clocks and people through the generations.
