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.

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 !
