The editors and staff wish to extend their heartfelt thanks to the College View Business Men's organization for making this year's publication possible. Expecting nothing in return, save our good will, you did everything within your power to make it easier for us to put out a revolutionary type of annual that could never have been published without your sup- port, For the first time in history a book is being placed in every student's hands. Not only this n l f 5 I 1 i v 1 Bill Hughes I I-Editor stand as a model for all future high school publications in the state, More power to you and we know that our readers, too, will appreciate your good-will gesture. You may be assured of their co- operation in the drive to make College View community con- scious, At this time we would also like to thank Mr. Humann and Mrs. Bergman for their help and guid- ing inliue-nce as staff sponsors. Attention, students! The staff's chief purpose in publishing some- thing so revolutionary was to fur- nish College View High School with a more delightful and inter- esting type- of book that would open up new opportunities for all future Viewpoint workers, We have considered ourselves pion- eers by blazing the way for suc- ceeding classes. Underclassmen should read this book carefully, finding improvements that have been made and improvements that could be made. Notice particu- larly the magazine style so much in evidence throughout all fourty- four pages, Previous to this year nearly all high school year books have simply been pictorial re- views. 1936 sees a new era of spicy and ple-asing books done in a literary style. We are proud to be among the very first to put this added zest into a high school pub- lication. Since we are pioneers in this effort our magazine is far from perfect, We simply had the idea, Now it is up to you to enlarge and improve it. Taking up the improvements we have made, the first, and perhaps the most worthwhile, was doing away with the traditional set-up of student and faculty accomplish- ! ' Jean Hamper, Ass-sm-inte Editor ments. Instead of the usual dry list of things accomplished at such and such time printed by the side ofthe individual panel pictures, in- teresting personal accounts writ- ten in the American Magazine in- teresting people style, have been substituted. The appearance of our advertising has been vastly changed by using a list of spon- sors, instead of the messy blocked ads which fill up five or six pages that could be used for something else, Section pages labeled Sen- iors , Athletics etc., have also been done away wih, allowing still more room for other material. An administration page has been introduced while snap shots are larger and more numerous, All in ail the book has at least three times as much copy in it, is done in a better literary style and is more original in design than any other annual, published by a high school of our size, in the state. That ends our boasting and we'll close by sincerely hoping that one and all will enjoy the 1936 View- point. We also wish students, fac- uty, and townspeople many hap- py and successful years that are being made possible by the com- munity's marvelous ingenuity and cooperative teamwork . Owr Good Times o . Editorially, this is just an at- temp to ramble for awhile, As a senior, looking back over my high school days, I have that sad and empty feelin'. As some wag once put it in the P and G, my ada1n's apple is getting too large for my throat. However, every senior is glad that he's smart enough to graduate. We know not ! Q 6 1 i a l l 1 I l U Ervain Oaks Business Manager 6 what is to come, but we are ready to face it with wagging jaw bones and vamping eye-s. We are full of ambition and Lincoln firms are eager to grab us up, We have nothing to worry about. Didn't a certain speaker at one of our assemblies say that we were up and going during his talk? As 1 started out to say, I feel very sad. I'll never forget the good times us feliers and gals had dur- ing our long stay fsome of us for an even longer onej at good old C, V. H. S. We started them out by throwing vases around in Coach Robson's sophomore English class. Weive always been proud of our record in that class on account of didnlt break a single vase. Then there was the time the school had a bonfire at one of the pep rallies and a fire alarm was sent in to the Lincoln fire department. Ev- ery hook and ladder company in the city ran out to the football Held with sirens screeching, The event rated the Lincoln papers in the next day's editions. And who could forget the C. V. club initia- tion that saw two or three initiat- tiates scrambling up the fire escap- es scrambling up the fire escapes on the Union College girls' dormi- tory at 5:30 in the morning, Girls, with kiinonas held tight, looked out of five hundred different win- dows. The crowning triumph of our last year in high was the bunch of glorious victories we came near winning in both football and bas- ketball, The senior boys this year were 'sure a sickly lot. They were hit by the worst epidemic of petticoat fever the school has ever experienced, Seriously speaking, we are sor- ry to have to 'leave our high school days behind. Good-bye, old alma mater, We shall always remem- ber you as we are sure that you will certainly remember us. if IF is Sneak Day On Thursday morning, May 21, at 5 o'clock about thirty seniors and their sponsors fthe 'three H'sJ rolled out of bed ready for the fun and excitement of Skip Day.

From then on his education included diplomas re- ceived at Elmwood High School, the State Teachers' College at Peru and two degrees at the Uni- versity of Nebraska. He first taught at Tipton School in Cass County and then educated stu- dents at Elmwood and the State- Teachers' College both of them being his former alma maters. For his first position in Lincoln, he O, H. Bimson, assistant super- intendent since 1927, was born at Inman and graduated from Albion High School in 1910 and from the Nebraska Wesleyan University in 1914. He took graduate work at the Nebraska, Chicago and Col- umbia universities. He received his master's degree at the 'Univer- sity of Nebraska in 1925 and then combined teaching with coaching at the Fairmont High School in this state. Following this he was at one time or another, superin- tendent at the Osmond, Oakland and University Place- high schools, l M. C. Lefler acted as boys' advisor at Lincoln High School. In 1920 he received his present title of Superintend- ent of the Lincoln Schools, Mr. Lefler enjoys outdoor life, especially fishing and hunting. He has made an intensive study of butterflies and takes great delight in this work. When asked if he had always planned to be an educator, Mr. Lefier said that he studied two years in a law school before de- ciding to go into the educational field. Tall, poised and cheerful, he has made a hit with each and every student in our fair city, Mr. Bimson's hobbies include sports and music. He excels at both vocal and instrumental music. A large man, both in size and O. H. Bimson character, Lincoln students re- spect his fair minded discipline. Sk if PF Since 1929 the College View schools have been under Lincoln administration. Our relationships with the Lincoln Board of Educa- tion have been very pleasant and profitable. Conditions in our schools have been greatly improv- ed by the interest you have taken in our efforts. We sincerely thank you for your cooperation and will do our best to warrant it in the future. 35,523 3 553333 jj w if 1 gf V1EwPo . iSouth En twfnce 35 '- ., - I I ' L' f 1'1s5 Sh? gig?- 33 W gf? gQ ,QQg5i'f5S5Q ill? 35. gg 3' f m J 53 f 5 .

It was a lot of fun trying to get their ages and some of them refused to di- vulge them. Anyhow, here goes! Principal Torval Johnson is six feet tall, has long sideburns and says he-'s forty years old, To be an educator has always been his occupational preference. Second choice is business. Enjoys work- ing with plants and landscapes, 1 -, Principal Torval Johnson loves to travel and hits a golf ball with the best of them. Has taught here since 1922, became principal in 1930 and obtained his master's degree in 1932. Well liked and respected, Hobby this year was growing a mustache. Mrs. Anna Bergman boasts the honor of giving longer service to our school than any other member of the faculty. Has held classes in the College View schools for twenty-four years.

Always wanted to be a teacher and we're glad she did as she's a favorite with us stu- dents. Loves iiowers, does fancy work and plays the violin. At the time of this writing our home economics teacher, Mrs- Christine Brant, is in the hospital undergoing an operation for ap- pendicitis and so could not be in- terviewed, However, she is do- ing nicely and should be released from the hospital by the time this book is published, while we know that sunshine will never quit radiating from her face. 'Ne give her our best wishes and regards. She is short, dark, twenty-seven years old, pretty and single. Viirote a novel when thirteen years old. Aspired iirst to be a writer, became interested in dramatics and finally took up teaching, Dra- matics is her hobby and she's tops when it comes to dramatic coach- ing.

The answer to ll l N l Mrs. Anna Bergman l this whoozit is Elma Buchannan.

Is a big shot in the state goat association. Owns quite a few of them. Goats, I mean. Has been connected with the school for a long time. The boys like him and enjoy working with him. One of the busiest individuals in the school is Marcia Perry who teaches History, English and Pub- lic Speaking besides sponsoring the Girl Reserves and our school newspaper. Writing has always been her hobby and she was once crazy to work on the staff of some large magazine in New York City. If she had money she'd collect lots of things, 'especially Chin- W Elmi lim-lmnnan ese art'. Due to a Lincoln Board of Education ruling we've been wondering how long Miss Perry will be with us. It's been rumor- ed that she has a ste-ady. When you see a broad smile Humunn walking around under a pair of expressive brown eyes you'll know that you are looltiitg at Thelma Rider, who teaches bookkeeping and shows pupils how to tickle the typewriter keys. This is her first year here so she was given the best behaved home room in the building, Always wanted to be a teacher and hasn't changed her mind. fCatch?Q Hobby is meet- ing and dealing with people. Is thirty-one years old and was mar- ried in 1930. Our good looking coach, Me-rrit Robson, claims he's not a day over thirty.

However, she did finally admit that she once passed the senior life saving tests. If I remember correctly she said she was thirty-six years old and I'm too lazy to find out whether I'm right or not. I'll probably rue that some day. By the way, she's foot loose and fancy free, In conclusion, we seniors have been pretty well satisfied with our tutors and beg them to have pa- tience with next year's seniors W, Mrs. Thelma Rider who are expected to live up to our high standards of conduct.

This seemed to be the favorite- sport, The football captain enjoys sea-far- ing life very much, as long as the boat stays under him, Many, while boating, bathed their feet, while others preferred complete sans clothes. Three nude bathers were frightened to the protection of the trees when an unsuspecting boat came within sight of their private swimming pool. All through the day tow-ins were ouite in order and hitch-hikers on stranded boats were as plenti- ful as those on the highway. Inci- dentally, one of these tow-ins was the direct result of a water fight causing two wet motors, a Wetter wrist watch and soaked clothes.

THE VIEWPOINT-1935-36 Valedzctorzcm The College View High School faculty presents James Harrison as this year's valedictorian, James' average of 95.62 was attained while attending classes only two full years out of the three re- quired of a high school graduate. During his senior year he journey- ed into fourty-four different states with his cousin, a travel lecturer, and meanwhile kept up his stud- ies. This is an unusual record and it is to be regretted that he was unable to take the regents scholarship examinations which he undoubtedly would have passed with flying colors. Ron voyage! S1 44 Pls Salutatofricm P Salutatorian honors for 1936 go to Faith Lawrence who boasts an average of 94.21 for her three years' work in high school. Quiet, steady and capable, Faith has made a most favorable impression on students and faculty alike. At the time of his writing we have not yet obtained the results of her entry in the regents scholar- ship examinations but we are con- fident of her continued success.

Tom Gillaspie Directed jointly by Mrs. Berg- traditional College View High man and Miss Buchanan, this far- School senior play. The goofy cical comedy was presented as the plot and dialog made serious and dramatic acting impossible, but the cast fitted right into the spirit of thc play, and the result was really hilarious. The scene opens with the taxi driver calling at the Simmons home to return a lady's hand-bag left in Mr, Simmons' taxi the night be-fore, or I should say this morn- ing! , by his niece . How do you know it was his niece? , in- quires Mrs. S., immediately sus- picious. She called him uncle explains the cabby innocently. When Simmons comes down he notices his wife's queer actions, but goes ahead to disclose his plan to marry Ethel to his partner, Chet Binney. His project is given a setback, however, when Ethel turns up with Roger Shields, a friend from Chicago and Paris, Good heavens! You aren't the son of John M. Shields? he asks. Oni, Monsieur, Well, you must take after your mother. While Shields kisses Ethel's hand, Simmons mutters That's a part- nership that's going to be dissolv- ed Regaining his confidence, Sim- mons induces Chet to propose- to Ethel, but she wants a man with experience, who has sowed some wild oats. Simmons decides to sow some, so Chet goes to the corner store to buy pictures of beautiful women. He returns with four, sorrowing that they cost sixty-five cents apiece. One-'s of the Queen of Roumania, one of the Mona Lisa, dead five hun- dred years, and one of an actor. Simmons picks the other one, an actress named Letty Lythe. They ponder the question of an inscrip- tion. Chet suggests poetry, some- thing like this, 'Goodbye-my Chester, My Chester-protector? Finally they decide on To my quiet Chester, Still waters run deep. In memory of happy hec- tic Hollywood hours. Letty! Simmons forges it and they plant it where Mrs. S. will find it. It works! As the curtain falls Sim- mons exclaims The whole town's talking! But a dark cloud appears on the horizon, and the lightning strikes before the second act's up. In order to have another date with THE VIEWPOINT-l 935-36 his dancing teacher niece , Sadie Bloom, Simmons copies off a name from the hotel register, Donald Swift, and tells his wife of a business appointment with this man. Hattie is suspicious, calls the hotel, and identifies her- self, but Swift is out. Huh! says Hattie. Huh! says Sim- mons. Then the paper announces the personal appearance of Le-tty Lythe in town. Chet jumps from his chair, Goodbye, he says. Where are you going? , asks Simmons. To Honolulu! Sim- mons calms him down. Shields hears of the engage- ment, comes to say goodbye. Then in Walks Donald Swift, to see what Mrs. Simmons wanted. He's an old acquaintance of Roger, an ox-prizefighter, Miss Lythe's direc- tor, and her fiancee! He tells Shields that he is insanely jealous of any man who knows Letty. Shields shows him the picture, with the inscription. Later on Letty sees the picture, tells Shields it's a fake. To make Swift jealous she fakes a reunion with Chet, My Chester, my loved one, my mate, my man! l'll kill him! says Swift., go- ing into action. Shields stops him, No, no, not now! Later! Ethel sobs f'0h.. mother, mother! Simmons cries Oh, ye gods! Why didn't we pick the Mona Lisa!'! and the curtain falls, In the third act Sadie Bloom comes in to complicate matters. Letty attempts to calm Donald down, and Simmons actually gets a reconciliation, but Shields clev- erly gets Swift aroused again, and Chet is dragged into the room. In one of Swift's pictures there was a Fight in the dark. That's the only fair way , argues Chet, and Donald agrees. The lights go out, much injury is heard being done on the stage, Shields knocks out Swift with a table leg, then falls unconscious himself. The lights ego on, Chet climbs down from the chandelier, piles his ene- mies up and puts his foot on them, as Simmons breaks in the door. Chester and Ethel embrace, Letty leads Swift and Shields off to the hospital saying, Goodbye, Mr. Dempsey!

QAre you still with us'?J From the very beginning we knew that James Stransky, Dale Nannen and Richard Marrow had the gurnption in them to become the athletes they are today, If you were to ask Stransky what he thinks of being on the foot- ball, basketball and track teams, you would probably be honored with a slight smirk, a shrug of shoulders, and silenceg Nannen would blush from the tops of ears to the tips of his toesg guess how we know? Marrow would laugh embarrassedly and mutter a few inaudible words. Neverthe-less, the school as a whole is proud of them and we're glad they're in the Sophomore- class. And do you know a dark-haired sophisticated young lady in our midst who warbled herself to the top and is holding her ground by assisting with the publication of the school paper and has a help- ful finger in every important pie. Surely you can guess, It's Betty Knowles. And now ladies and gentlemen, we are proud to announce the 1935 Health Champion of Lan- caster County - Miss Winona Francke.

By Norma Christensen Three outstanding events in one's early life are when he is born, when he enters kindergar- ten and then when he enters jun- ior high. The date of birth is re- quiied for so many records that it is rarely forgotten even among us ninth graders, Some people took casual notice of us as we en- tered tlie kindergarten in 1927 in the College View Schools nineteen strong, sixteen have gone all the way through the C. V. public schools. Forty--five entered the seventh grade at the High School building in 1933 and were noticed as the youngest! We learned about or- ganizing in the home room or- ganizations and parliamentary drill until we could arise to point of order, In the eighth grade we had as our president, a sturdy leader, in Bob Morey, The keeper of our secrets and much business pro- ceedings was Naomi Nye. Ninth grade officrs were pres- ident, Neil Munson and secretary, Natalie I-Iadden, As a ninth grade we took our places in the larger life of the high school. Thirteen girls joined the G. A, A. and, as a group with ability must be reckoned with in every activity, gained recognition in the basketball tournament as the freshman team was second only to the winning senior team. In track events, Helen Gravatt was tirst with a broad jump of 11 feet, 9 inches, in the 50 yard dash with a time of 6.7 seconds, standing TOP ROW lLeft to rightl - -Wright, Vfixson, Titus, Thomas, Boas, Shregvo, Richard- son, Roemich V.

Mary Gatenby can throw a playground ball for a distance of nearly 150 feet. The baseball team made a commendable show- ing and the enthusiasm of the group is appreciated. The boys have done equally as well, In the sports, Bob Morey seems to be the outstanding ath- lete of the ninth grade. Bob got his football letter, and he received a reserve letter in basketball as a guard as well as a first string letter on the track team, Leland Marrow got his reserve letter in football, as a back and as student manager. Cloyd Richardson re- ceived a reserve football letter as a tackle. Stanley Roemich re- ceived a reserve football letter and was student manager. Emmett Schoenthal received a reserve let- ter in football as a back. Richard Shreeve received his re-serve foot-- ball letter an as an end and a re- serve letter in basketball as a for- ward, Charles Severin made a re- serve letter in track, carrying on the old Severin tradition of track and especially the mile. We have six of our group who ranked very we-ll as students. Norma Christensen, from kinder- garten days, has been near the top of the list. Pauline Detmer, al- though out some last year, has made commendable progress. Ber- nard Dresselhaus is always at the top of the list while Darline Grav- es, a newcomer from Raymond, is Sl10YVll1g' us more than several good grade slips, Kathryn Keller has rather consistently been near the top. Janice Marshall is an- other one with whom we have to reckon. March third the ninth grade gave a state day program under the supervision of Mrs. Rider. At the present time we are looking forward to high school days with hopeful hearts and un- daunted spirits. We feel that we have made a good start in the way of activities and we-'re certainly going to keep up the good work, In conclusion we sincerely thank Miss Scott for the intere-st she has taken in our efforts by en- couraging us to be ambitious Hazel Scott 26 Theeighfh Grade. ,. Py Jane Stewart and Keith Powell The- eighth grade had a large class this year, There were about 50 pupils in all and were divided into two groups. One group was in 207 having Miss Buchannan as their home room teacher while the other was in 302 having Mrs. Brant as their teacher. A Hallowe'en party was held the first semester, It was given at the school and Jane Stewart, Waite Hunter, Howard Gotfred- son, Jim Cunningham and Bar- bara Gibbs were on the committees for refrexlnnents, games, etc, T115 VIEWPOINT--1935-36 Bud Porter, forwards, Keith Powell was the captain, They started out with 3 straight wins but were beaten by 301 and fin- ished third in the league.

The officers were as follows: Jane Stewart, presi- dent, Mildred Miller, vice-presi- The delegates for 207 were Howard Gotfredson and Aloie Brooks for the entire year. Mrs, Brant, 302's home room teacher, was ill for about one month. Her home room pupils gave her a fruit shower and rc- quested pieces to be played for her over the radio. Mrs. Brant's home room gave a Lincoln Day and a Washington Day program in which the follow- ing took part: Keith Powell, Jane Stewart, Bernard Dresselhause, Janice ltfarshall, Aloie Brooks, Paul Hensen, Lawrence Nolan, Paul Tudor, Doris Puckett, Carol Sevier, Marjorie Mauser and Bust- i 1 l L.- Home room 302 gave a play for the benefit of the eighth grade.

Where are we go- ing? What purpose is being serv.- ed? Where will it end? What is it all. about? And the answer was, New faces . If that is the answer, I am in a particularly en- vious, as well as precarious, posi- tion. All of the new faces are mine, In their first home room they iind me.

The aims set forth in the above quotation, therefore, apply not only to our own little group, but to thousands of other studonts.in all parts of the country. Members of the or- ganization are elected by a coun- cil of faculty members, with the principal as chairman, They must be in the top third of their class in scholarship, and have attended the school at least one year. Five per cent of the junior class may belong and fifteen per cent of the senior class. Regular meetings are held at set times, twice each semester, while special meetings may be called when necessary. Members are classed as active and graduate, the latter having no vote. The College View chapter was organized in 1932 with five senior members. Seven graduated in 1933, four in 1934, and four in 1935, so that to date, we have twenty graduate members. Four of these, one to each year, have received regents scholarships to the University of Nebraska, At the present time two of them are attending Nebraska We-sleyan Uni- versity, one, the Lincoln School of Commerce, one, the University of Southern California and nine, the University of Nebraska. Active members this year are Ervain Oaks, Mack Harrison, Faith Law- rence, Jean Hooper and Freda Top Row: Bottom Row: James Harrison Faith Lawrence Jean Hooper Freda , Theis Ervain Oaks Theis. Ervain and Mack were elected in 1935 while Faith, Jean and Freda were taken in this spring. Of these five, only Freda is a junior. Let us hope, that in future years, interest in this organiza- tion will grow and that it will be- come a goal to all students who wish to make- a mark in scholar- ship and student activities. 0 A READY MADE FAMILY fContinued From Page 205 about the way life is treating her, As both Henry and Agnes are very rich both sets of brats think that their step parent is after their own parent's money. The result is many practical jokes to ward off the enemy which almost ruins a happy home until Henry and Agnes wake up to what is go- ing on and play a few themselves making out that both of them have lost all of their money. Fin- ally the four juveniles realize that they have an extraordinary lik- ing for one another and later, when they find that both Henry and Agnes are lousy with money, they have a ready made family and little Gracie knows that now she can have all the lollypops and ice cream cones she can hold, which is quite a lot. Comments: Although the plot is obvious from the beginning, the play is light and comical with the audience enjoying immensely the mischievous pranks played on step-father and mother. The ju- venile leads were handled capably as were the two older roles. Little Gracie had lots of fun While the colored folks, played by Duard Henderson and Edna Eddy and Irene Henson as Aunt Lydia, stole the show with their characteriza- tions.

The staff this year was appoint- ed by the senior class officers under the direction of the two sponsors, Mrs. Bergman and Mr. Human. Contacts were made at once with various publishers, who were asked to submit their bids, After due consideration the selec- tions were made as follows: Pub- lisher, Capital Engravingg Print-- er, H.

Morse, also of this community, This having been done the edi- tors began planning and arrang- ing, Meanwhile group and indi- vidual pictures were taken. Also an extensive advertising campaign was carried on by the publicity department. Incidentaily the absence of the usual box ads is due to another in- ovation in annual policies. The Business lVIen's Club of College View were very generous in back-- ill Julius Hulnu in ing the Viewpoint to the limit, This was due largely to the untir- ing efforts of Mr. Julius Humann, who spent much of his valuable time in convincing these mer- chants of the practicability of the new plan. Under this, instead of running the usual ads, the-y agreed amount of to invest a certain capital in return for which they received advertisement in the book community and throughout the as well as the support of the stu- dents and their parents.

The Radio was chosen as the theme to be carried out this year in the Girl Reserves organization. The officers were Lois McGee, president, Freda Theis, vice-pre-si- dent: Leona Brant, secretary, Irene Henson, treasurer. In harmony with the city-wide program, general meetings were held the third Monday of each month. At the first meeting, the Girl Reserve code and quest were read and explained to the sopho- more girls in order that they might have a better understand- ing of what G. R. stands for. The outstanding speakers of the year were Miss Bush Perkins, Mrs. C. Petrus Pedersen and Miss Min- tere. The social activities started witl a party at the Y. W. C. A. on Oc- tober 7, welcoming all girls who were not as yet members of the club. The party proved to be quite a novelty with the old mem- bers, attired in me-n's clothing, es- corting the sophomore girls as their dates. Prizes were awarded to the best dressed couples. A Thanksgiving party in late November was held at the home of Lois McGee. A short program was furnished and the rest of the evening was spent in playing games. Pumpkin pie- and coffee were the refreshments. Another outstanding event in November was the annual date ll TOP ROW 4Left to right!-eLawrence, S. Brant, Hergert, Eddy, Hooper, Pedersen, Lundwall.

Doc Cook's orchestra furnished the music for dancing in the Gym while games were played in the clubrooms. The party ended with refreshments served in the recrea- tion room. Every year during Valentine week, the Girl Reserves have Heart Sisters. However, since the theme this year was The Radio, they were called Har- mony Sisters . During the week gifts were exchanged among the girls. At the end of the week a Va'ien'tine party was held at the Y. W, C. A. where the girls dis- covered whom their Harmony Sis- ters had been. The All Sports Banquet, spon- sored by the Girl Re-serves and Hi-Y, was held March 21 at the Union Church. Our program com- mittee was in charge of the dec- orations and menu. The theme for the joint Hi-Y- Girl Reserve conference, April 3 and 4, was Christian Youth Build- ing a New World . The confer- ence started with a party Friday night consisting of a program, group games and dancing. A worship program, led by Rev. Rob- ert Henry, started the next morn- ing off. Rev. Ray McConnel gave the message, Youth Matching An Hour Like This . After the de- votionals, group discussions were held until noon. Lunch was serv- ed at the Y. M, C, A, followed by a panel discussion. Group discus- sions coninued all afternoon. Mrs. A. L. Smith gave an address at the banquet Saturday evening which closed the coneference. The dad-daughter date party was he-ld April 22 at the Y. W. C. A. After a short program games were played. The refresh- ments consisted of pie a la mode and coffee. A variety program was present- ed May 8 in the high school audi- torium, Three one-act plays and several short vaudeville acts were given, including a reading by Mar.. jorie French and a song rendered by Dorothy Wear, The mother-daughter tea and the senior farewell ended the Yeafs program. ill' n Marcin. Perry THE VIEWPOINT4l 935-36 33 Hi-'Y Highlights The 1936 season of the Hi-Y club of our school proved, we be- lieve, to be another successful year added to the annals of the organization. Financially, we were tops, clearing a little over sixteen dollars. VVe were able to rent for ourselves a fine club room for our activities, pay for our pictures in the annual, and leave about four dollars in the treasury for next year. Above all we feel that our moral standards we-re raised no- ticeably, due to the added inter- est furnished us by competent officers. Spiritually, we were aid- ed by short devotionals held before eafh night meeting. The club has accomplished much in one year, not only for the benefit of the Hi-Y, but for the benefit of the school as a whole. The first. semester was a rather dead time for the club, seeing no night meetings or club activities, but the second semester saw the Hi-Y stepping into its own. Our first business venture was a bas- ketball game For the opener the junior high chose a team from their group to play the sophomore class. Home rooms 203 and 307 played in the main event. Due to the fact that each home room was the proud possessor of nearly an equal amount of first team members, thrills ran high to the many who attended. The contests brought in close to six dollars. On March 9, our se-cond ven- ture took place in the auditorium, bringing out a galaxy of school TOP ROW tLeft to right! Martin, Knowlton, Breunsbach, Hughes, MclVleen, Keller, Harrison.

Nineteen good acts of singing, dancing, reading and playing were the features to be marveled at by a crowd that thought 'tthere was no life left in the old girl. To be sure, the crovd was not lonesome in its opinion, for at the first mention of an amateur show, a sly snicker escaped from club members. How- ever the idea was enlarged upon, a committee was chosen, plans were laid. outside help was brought in and believe it or not we had an amateur show to be proud of, ah yes in two ways: both because we had no trouble in finding tal- ent among our bashful students and Len dollars more was added to the treasury. The purpose of our organiza- tion is well brought out in the find yourself campaign held each year by the Hi-Y which the sen- ior members find to be of great value. The first, in a series of those meetings, was held in the auditorium on April 16. Each and eva-ry boy in tho high school was invited. Dr. Bradford, from the University of Nebraska, spoke to the group. lle placed people of the present age into two different classes, the blocker and the ball carrier. He said that the blocker is the one who does the work while the ball carrier does the thinking. That only three, out of every hundred, are able to enter into the ball car- rying or professional phase of life, was another interesting' point he brought out. Other highlights of the year were the joint H-Y-G. ll. confer- ence, Clint Hurd's traffic talk, the All Sports Banquet, which we co- sponsored with the Girl Reserves, and the discussions held at each night meeting. In conclusion, the senior mem- bers of this organization give our best wishes to future members and their undertakings. ......-,.-gi..-1,. A late news flash is the city- wide Hi-Y supper which our club sponsored during the early part of May in the Union church.

We met Havelock on the Boil- ermakers' field and trounced them ta heavy favoritej, 20 to 7.

The following week Tecumseh came to town and went home feel- ing very good, indeed! THE V1EwPoiNT-1935-36 Going on the road we expected a victory over Plattsmouth, but our evident cockiness again spelled de- feat when the river boys won by a score of 6 to 0. A somewhat revamped line-up saw a great change the following week and we all but turned back Lincoln Reserves, After a series fo passes. ln which Duke Gra- ham was the principal receiver, Johnny Badousek plunged over from the five yard line and Col- lege led at the half-time, 6 to 0.

Cecilia won 7 to 0. Our second victory of the sea- son was taken the following week as we turned back Chili Arm- strong's Wymore eleven, in a very exhibition of football. McNulty's height and flee-tness came in handy in the final period exciting Inset: Captain Hoag giving Day. He galloped across our line three times and Bethany won 19 to 0. Our only threat came in the first quarter when we ad- vanced to their two yard line be- fore be-ing stopped. Our captain was the only man to gain city wide recognition on the All Star teams, Badousek and Taylor were elected co-captains for next year. THE VIEWPOINT-1935-36 35 Basketball . . . As was jokingly said at the All Sports banquet, We won all but our last fourteen game-S, Pros- pects for basketball were some- what brighter than it was for foot- ball with seven lettermen return- ing and Le-on Eno, star forward, as captain. Our first game was the only game that we won, With Bill Hughes leading the way with six- teen points, we tromped on Teach- ers High 34 to 10. Bethany hand- ed us our first de-feat by a score of 48 to 21, Union Church, a team composed mostly of C. V, grads had their hands full in beat- ing us 18 to 15, although we made but three field goals. The following week we trave-l- ed to Wilber on Friday where a bad first half figured largely in a 24 to 16 defeat, Saturday night the strong Jackson team won easi- ly by a score of 32 to 9. Going across town to Havelock, a fight- ing team went down to defeat un- der a strong shop town rally ended by a score of 39 to 19. With Wymore leading 18 to 12 at half time a revamped lineup came to the top to pile up an eight point lead and then see it melt away in the last minute for a 30 to 28 Wymore victory, Havelock came ove-r here and found a stronger team than they had faced the preceding week but won by a 28 to 21 count. On the coldest night of the year we' went to Plattsmouth where we had things pretty much in our hands till a middle-length shot gave them a last minute victory 23 to 22. Lincoln Reserves took Vorhies lstudenl mgr. J, Sofiin, Berggren, Garrison, Krull, Gillaspie, Henderson, Eno, Layton, Hughes. Coach Robson. Inset: Captain Eno our measure the ne-xt week, 26 to 21, Matching the Maroon crew, bas- ket for basket, for over three quarters, we again cracked to a barrage of oneehanded shots that couldn't miss the hoop and we lost to Bethany again 38 to 29. Leland Berggren's field goal was the only one that we could get as Jackson again turned us back, 36 to 12, After trailing by six points with but five minutes to play we start- ed a strong rally that all but de- feated Cathedral on the C. Y. O. court as they gained a narrow 19 to 17 victory. Milford won an easy 33 to i16 game the following night, and the boys made ready for the tournament, That very distinct streak of bad luck followed us right into the Regional Tournament at the Ag- ricultural College Gym. We drew a bye for the first round but were forced to play Bethany the follow- ing night. Of course we lost, but not until we had given them a good scare in the first half, trail- ing them only four points, 16 to 12. The final score was 35 to 15. Soliin was picked as a forward on the Journal and Star Honor roll team. Henderson, the only returning letterman, will be the 1936-'37 basketball captain. PF P14 if Track . . . This year's track squad was the most successful athletic group that College View boasted during 1935- 36. Five lettermen reported for tryouts during the early spring, They are Captain Kenneth Krull, Dale- Nannen, Richard Marrow, Keith Severin and James Stransky. New faces on the squad included Bob Morey, John Badousek, Frank Layton and Charles Taylor. The honor of being the outstanding track athlete- of the season goes to Marrow who did especially well in the hundred yard dash.

Jean Hooper finshed an- other successful ye-ar of chee1'- leading and was also proficient as a swimmer, earning her senior life-saving merits. Clover Green was a good general athlete, hav- ing initiative and ability to lead, Lois McGee was another good all- around athlete as was Doris Park- er, Peggy Hornung was an out- standing swimmer, having earned her junior life-saving emblem.

For this reason, many feminine cries of dismay were heard when school began in the fall of 1935 and it became known that there were only six returning members of the C, V.

Now that you have been made that much wiser we- will present to you the club's greatest accom- plishment during '35-'36, which happened to be the drafting of the first constitution the club has had since it was first organized in 1923 by Mr. Johnson. It is as follows: 37 letter, a prospective member must be initiated into the club by mem- bers of the club still in school. Article 1-This initiation will take place on the third Tuesday in the month of March, each and every year, Article 2-Any former C. V. Club member that has lived up to this constitution will be eligible to all future initiations in the role of a spectator, not as a par-- ticipant. Following custom and tradition the club again elected the annual some-Willie as president, vice- president, and secretary, respect- ively, and proceeded to go to town by holding two initiations instead of the usual one, thus swelling the membership to twenty-eight. Now, ladies and gentlemen, we are giving you the facts, never told before, about the C. V. Club initiations, In other Words, we are going to make known to you what an aspiring member had to go through during the 1935-'36 initiations. We are doing this for three reasons. First, it is a scoopg the second, we know that you readers are dying of curiosity to know these deep, dark secrets, third, we want future initiations to be original so we're going to spill the beans about the old ones.

Farewell. . . We have just learned of Coach Robson's appointment as head coach at Jackson High School. It is with a sense of pride mingled with an unexplainable feeling of sadness that C. V. H. S. says good bye to Roby. Few men know as much about boys as does an athletic coach. For this reason he occupies a large place in the heart and mind of a high school athlete. We have been extremely fortunate in hav- ing a coach who was as conscien- tious of a boy's problems and who understood them as well as Mer- rit Robson. Despite the various handicaps he was forced to over- come, Mr. Robson has turned out many successful teams during his nine year regime at College- View High School, meanwhile gaining the love and respect of each and every boy who came into contact with him. During the years of 1927-'29 a certain boy had the- privilege of being under Robson's skilful tu- telage. This lad will be our next year's coach and is known to the people of our community as Bcb Chase. In the Lincoln State Jour- nal which came out May 29, Bob was quoted as saying that if he can only handle Colle-ge View ath- letes as Robson handled him, he will be well satisfied. Congratulations To the Viewpoint Staff: The original and unique presentation of the View- point is signal in its achieve- ment of breaking away from the stereotype form of an- nual publications among high schools that has prevailed for more than a quarter of a cen- tury. Originality does not always indicate progressive- ness, but in this review of high school life is reflected the spirit of youth upon which our nation of tomor- row must depend. This char- acterizes the Viewpoint as a criterion for other classes to follow.
