Don't you see me?: Have you ever tried to see me? I'm life; I'm making you happen. No matter where you go or what you do, I'm there. | remember getting up with every- one of you sometime between 6:30 and 7:00 a.m. each morning: getting dressed, eating breakfast, going to school, studying ... It was long, boring, tiring for a few, but others took it as it should have been. That was only worth as much as you decided to spend too. There are those that still believe school is only school—that it's just a place to study and learn. Watching you this year, | discovered it's only a foundation on which more pleasur- able things can and will be built. Ads Life ... 238 .. 92 Whats Happening Even life has things to learn. While viewing a football or basket- ball game or attending various class functions during the year, did you ever stop and wonder how all of those things were possible? Did you ever think that if there were no school, there would be no Blue Blazers, Cheerblock, or | Remember Mama? Please don't let me go to waste. With most of you, I'm very signi- ficant simply because of the trouble you seem to have in finding me. But maybe that's because you only talk about looking, and then never do ... Most of me is in the real and gen- uine—try looking in that direction. Each of you want something differ- ent out of life—something entirely unique to you and you only. Just open your eyes, friend, and you'll find me. 7:00 A.M. — Typical school day reflects daily life Early morning blahs are dispelled as faces are made, breakfast is gulped, busses are caught or rides sought, and 2,850 students (and some 150 faculty members) coverage on Elio: Bn 6 SETTERS EP APES IO SRI me NERD TROT Cindy Losure and Bubbles The James Losures at breakfast A naMaper tee'y Fe ee ee. te SS tentacle ; a) te pr let ln fp ee f j tect pe gst tiesto } Students await 7:45 bell Tom Thompson and Marsha Williams eee mee Bas. oe me. el - : ya ' oa ¥ ee = = = oe ‘ ’ nh [ae ae? ‘ ibe LE Ces oer = ae ye ‘ sy a ee | oe ii Vail se ces goa a it iv we i , Barns ae ai : ’ é hin, 77 fe” . — ae Lei ye ; : 4 ee yee : Fe tem a : : 7 i‘. 7 “a 7 - 7 . _ ij ’ y Morning schedule is varied, active Routine class work begins; beakers of liquids are tested, a witty remark is made by Mr. Boyle, announcements are viewed via TV, on Wednesdays, a Principal's Report, club activities on alternate Mondays, fifteen minute study periods, last minute shuffle to classes (if you lift your feet, you're running.)

On a brisk Thursday night rather late in September, kickoff activities began with a parade down Main Street. Wind- ing its way to and around Rice Field, the procession found its way off the track only minutes before senior girls were scheduled to show the guys how the game of football should be played. At the conclusion of the ''powder-puff ' game, the scene changed to the area behind the stadium for a bonfire, pep session, and the crowning of the queen. To the applause of a capacity crowd on Friday night, the floats were again paraded around the field and then off to give those participating ample time to change clothes, secure good seats, and begin yelling. EHS played Adams that night and lost. It was a loss harder to take than most, but everyone man- aged to recover in time to enjoy them- selves at the homecoming dance.

Seniors create Norwegian family; Lemon-honey potion helps lung power; Nancy Jones turns blonde; “For as long as | can remember the house on Steiner Street has been home... but most of all | Remember Mama.” For six weeks, seniors worked vigorous- ly to be ready when the curtain would go up on November 10 and |1. Mem- bers of the cast memorized lines and quickly tried to learn a Norwegian ac- cent. The feeling of a real family was the main goal. Mrs. Strain, director, Lau- rie Stokel, student director, and many other seniors did the behind-the-scene work that was needed to make | Re- member Mama possible. The setting of 1910 created a chal- lenge. Costumes were made and some authentic 1910 dresses were found in an attic. An old china hutch was searched for where Mama could keep her dishes and the little bank . After the per- formance it was agreed, It vas goot! ' Cast included Katy Miller as Mama, Nancy Jones as Katrin, Brad Miller as Papa, Bob Shultz as Uncle Chris, Margarette Roy as Aunt Trina, Terry Pressler as Aunt Jenny, Shannon Treneer as Aunt Sigrid, Jenny Wells as Dagmar, Chris Wood as Christine, Greg Smith as Nels, Bill Yoder as Mr. Hyde, Bill Hunt as Mr. Thor- kelson, Larry Schumacher as Arne, and Beth Buckley as Miss Moorhead. Others in the cast are Jane Gravender, Joyce White, Carol Price, Terry Johnson, Monica Klose, Jane Hamlin, Mike Sheppard, and Tim Cordell. 23 Ee TY ES Festive deck the halls party, art exhibit at Christmas concert, holiday teas, chemist-tree, visit from jolly fat man marks E.H.S. holiday season December '67 will undoubtedly go down in EHS history as having only eleven school days. But it also had more activities stuffed into those eleven days than any other time of the school year. To start the month off with the tra- ditional 'Ho-Ho-Ho's'’ of jolly Saint Nick, the Student Council sponsored the Deck the Halls'' party. Some type of staple food item was collected from everyone that came and later given to needy families. Other major accomplishments _ in- cluded an Art Exhibit, a Home-Ec Tea and a Chemist-tree which was put to- gether by one of the chemistry classes. Consisting of tubes, flasks, and other paraphernalia from the chem. lab, the tree helped accent school decorations. On the fifteenth, decorations were stripped off, and school was dismissed. Returning in January, most students found-things back to normal. But some were already anticipating spring vaca- tion which, to their disappointment, would only last one week. HANGING PAINTINGS are artists Larry Bilenki, Darlene Aumack, and Linda Dascoli. Decorating the tree at the party are Bobbie Ward, Debbie Longfellow, and Steve Klapp. SITTING ON SANTA'S KNEE is Keith Bontrager as Sherry Vollmar, Becky Tiulli and Linda Beard wait their turn in Child Development class. Chemist-tree is decorated by Nancy Jones and Barb Billings. Christmas punch is served by Bettie Allen to Mrs. Clifford Wolfinger and Mrs. Beard. QUARTER BREAK finds Coach Bell changing the defensive pattern. Last minute instruction (above left) is offered, followed by an en- couraging handclap. Frenzied countdown begins, pandemonium reigns as seconds of eternity tick by during Hoosier hysteria And the count-down began: ten ... crowds were going wild; nine people were screeching; eight , cheerleaders forgot about leading cheers; seven ... no one was in his seat; six ... the ball was thrown from the opposite end of the floor—no good!; five ... whistles were blown; four ... cokes were spilled and pea- nuts scattered; three ... time out was called: two ... a basket swished through; one ... score was tied; zero . overtime. Fans sat down for the first time in eight minutes: one side visibly re- lieved, but tense—the other side just tense. As the players stepped onto the court, the teams stood ready to re- ceive the ball as chantings of “Jump Habegger, jump'' squealed from the girls' cheerblock. Hoosiers were again on their feet and made use of every inch their vocal cords had to offer them. By this time, crowds were hysterical, players were tense and time was run- ning out. But even before the final whistle had blown, the gym had emptied considerably. Maybe Blazer Country didn't reach everyone, but they tried! YELLING AND CLAPPING vigorously, the girls and boys' cheerblock rooted Garvin Roberson and jump shooting guard Pat Murphy. % Hie a her : ims Rs ee {om % ek ci ei i CHARGING BLAZER SPIRIT is Mr. B and Miss Hamlin.

Applause greets lovely Gloria Conard, crowned 68 Basketball Homecoming Queen; spirit radiates throughout Blazer Country if Amidst whistles from the boys' cheer- block, mixed emotions of wild clapping and screaming to tears from the girls’ and a polite round of applause from the crowd, the 1968 Basketball Home- coming queen was crowned. Gloria looked lovely as always and Oderia didn't seem to mind making the change from varsity basketball player to queen crowner'’ in a matter of minutes. At least three of the half-time cere- monies were taken over by the Pep Club with the presentation of their Blazer Bolt to the most spirited class of the evening. Away from the basketball court and into the school, spirit was being radiated everywhere as Blazer Country was made beautiful by its students for sectional time. Although each of these activities did its share to promote spirit, only the com- bination of all three could raise spirit to the pinnacle it reached this year. BEAUTIFYING Mr. Bowman's B 209 are poster hang- ers Chuck Darling and Brenda Kline. Artists are Wendy Ternet, Steve Troyer and Cathy Culp.

All school play ts Witness for the Prosecution; Audience wonders who did it? Boys wear handmade cotton wigs; EHS students become English court members; Judge's bench is reversible fire place; Last minute of show, audience is dazed. An old woman was dead, and Leonard Vole was charged with murder. He seemed a kind, thoughtful, young man and the audience was sure he was inno- cent. Mr. Myers, prosecuting attorney, almost had him convicted for murder when suddenly Sir Wilfred, defense at- torney, acquired some mysterious letters from a strange woman. Leonard Vole was found not guilty. But Agatha Chris- tie had her usual twist-ending—in fact Witness for the Prosecution had two twists. In the last minute of the play, it was learned that Leonard Vole was really guilty and as the curtain closed was ly- ing dead, killed by his wife. Mrs. Strain directed the play with Terry Pressler and Ann Griffen as student directors. Members of the cast were Bob Shultz as Sir Wilfred, Brad Miller as Mr. Myers, Phil Hansing as Leonard Vole, Laurie Stokel as Romaine Vole, Bill Hunt as Mr. Mayhew, Katy Miller as Janet Mackenzie, Marcia Backert as the cockney girl, Aksana Burak as Greta, Terry Rinehart as Car- ter, Phil Stiver as Inspector Hearne, Mike Ma- rohn as Mr. Clegg, Bob Kleiner as Dr. Wyatt, Cheryl Campbell as the girl, and Ken Barrett as the judge. Also in the cast were Brian Winne, Nancy Rinehart, Jim Faigh, Chris Lerner, Terry Johnson, Tim Shenck, Steve Gillies, John Myr- land, Jim Hannah, Jim Cormican, Tim Cordell, and Chuck Darling. pectrtedinetgren THINKING, Sir Wilfred develops a plan. - % = pices SS SWEARING to tell the truth, Dr. Wyatt begins his testimony.

The steak and salad were simply delicious. It's so cool being alone with him, especially on nights like last night. We got there a little after 9:00 and had our pictures taken right away so we wouldn't have to wait in line. The dec- orations were fairly good, but | liked them better last year, maybe because | helped. The sophs were dressed like pirates to go along with the theme. It always seems that the dance is the worst part, after that's over the fun really starts! We didn't stay too long at Chris’ Party—must have left around 2:00 and went to the Breakfast—terribly crowded so we came back here and talked ‘til 4 :00.

ENGLISH: Might as well enjoy it — will take it anyway It made no difference whether you loved The Scarlet Letter, hated grammar, or were indifferent towards Shakespeare, English was one course you had to take. Walking into a typical English class might have revealed anything from students dis- cussing a paperback copy of A Separate Peace to pupils writing their own TV script of The Lottery''. Other classes may have been laboring away on independent study projects or viewing overhead transparen- cies of sentence structure and paragraph development. Panel discussions, oral book reports, copy writing for The Council Courier,'' the Pen- point, and pep sessions combined to make the EHS English department extremely in- teresting. The seniors can only wish their under- classmen luck, for they know that as long as they're at EHS, they will be in English. WRITING an impromptu essay for Writing Brenda Johnson first organizes her ideas. LECTURING on English to her class, Mrs. Connolly also shows her personality. UNDERLINING important parts of The Iliad helps this student to better understand it. After stalling Mr. Boyle off as long as they could, this class must now answer his questions.

A great deal of camera running, button pushing, and light controlling went on behind the scenes of each EHS TV production. The radio broadcasting class, which al- ternated semesters with the TV broad- casting course, spent two days on each fifteen minute radio production. To put the program on the air, each student had to write scripts, run the control booth, pick records and line up commercials. Starting with sixty-second speeches and working up to ten minute ones, do- ing oral book reports, and reading poetry aloud with a great deal of ex- pression set the junior speech class apart from other English courses. The technical theatre class, better known as a drama course, was designed for individuals interested in working be- hind the scenes instead of in front of them. Learning how to communicate intel- ligently with others is one of the most difficult things in life to master. As a re- sult, the above courses were offered and readily accepted by many. Speech also provided EHS with many services. RAT RACE? No, Heide Cruss- emeyer (left) and Bill Hunt are studying the behaviors and reactions of mice and men in Effective Living class.

STRIKERS and management at Continental Can are interviewed by American Problems class. In li- brary conference room, on the right, Mr. Stinespring queries some World Studies students discussing Portuguese imperialism in Africa. SOCIAL STUDIES: Minds don’t wander; seminars are lively Kids taking social studies courses gen- erally didn't find their minds wandering from classroom activities to something going on outside. This was partly be- cause the windows were either too high or there was nothing to look at except a very unexciting, dirty roof. Lively discussions, independent study projects, enlightening debates and a seminar program also kept mind wan- dering at a minimum. Students of Government and Ameri- can Problems classes were interested in reaching out of the classroom. This re- sulted in field trips to interview strikers picketing at Continental Can and to hear Martin Luther King speak. Some class members were able to glimpse momentary jet streams from the windows, but these were fleeting and soon their attention was back to the im- portance of laws, land, and labor. ee HANG UPS are discussed in psychology. — WORKING ON a history research paper for American Problems class is Mike Chambliss. FOREIGN LANGUAGE: Upper “A” hall — active with learning Upper A hall had a split personal- ity: one side consisting of business rooms, the other with German, French, Latin, and Spanish classes. The mild roar from the business side sometimes made concentration difficult when you were trying to learn how to conjugate ‘'mourir'' in French or at- tempting to make conversation entirely in German, but a mere closing of the door generally solved the problem. Something new has resulted in mul- tiple programming at the tenth grade level. For the first time we have an en- riched and regular track beginning with level three works, ' stated Mr. Tracy, de- partment chairman. Reading La Peste and speaking entire- ly in French in the level five class, at- tending the Roman Banquet if you took a Latin course, and studying Russian in A-211 on Tuesdays after everyone else had gone home may not have made for the most pleasant experiences, but C'est la vie.

Tiny organisms come to life for Bob Bennett (above). Force and energy of a moving object make up a physics problem for Jon Lorenz (right). Giving chickens hormone shots, doing mutation experiments over, and observ- ing the reactions of fruit flies was all a part of biology this year. And sopho- mores even made molecules out of jelly beans. Pondering over wave motions in physics and laboring over that never- ending mass of chemistry problems may not have been your idea of happiness, but it helped on the achievement tests. New to the department this year was a program involving team teaching. This class was conducted on Tuesdays and Thursdays in chemistry at the senior divi- sion and in biology at the sophomore level. Meeting on the designated days, classes participating in the program re- ceived a lecture from one of the two teachers on a specific chapter. Com- ments such as 'l learn so much more this way'' and 'It's a nice change give some indication as to the success of the program. Mr. Mahan, department chariman, out- lined the department's goal as ''strength- ening attitudes toward initiative, re- sourcetulness, imagination, curiosity, and creative activity.’ Soccer MOD SCIENTISTS Carl Lauver and Frank Lukes test the solubility of various chemicals.

[SER STDERR MATHEMATICS: “PF” hall — scene of varied happenings Sauntering down 'F'' hall with books in one hand and somebody else's hand in yours on any typical school day and peering in to one of the many math rooms may have revealed a wild variety of intriguing occurrences. These 'hap- penings,'' depending upon the class and the teacher, might have ranged from a stagnant state of triangles and theorems in geometry to a whirlpool of thought- provoking questions and answers in cal- culus. Continuing your journey, the math sem- inar would have caught your attention immediately because of the noise and the relatively small size. A non-credit elective course, the seminar was con- cerned basically with data processing and the use of computers. Next door, a trigonometry class pon- dering away on identities, graphing, or angles probably wouldn't have noticed your presence if you hadn't decided to act sophomorish by shouting one of their names and waving. Algebra classes, various academic lev- els of classes, and modern math courses also made up a big part of the department. EXPLANATION by Mr. Harvey, using the overhead, makes math clearer.

ART: | Students agree that classes are groovey i} What would you think of a subject that had doubled its enrollment since last year, took trips to Chicago, and made their own film for EHS TV? Pretty interesting? Most of us would have to agree. Without the use of sound, they even viewed Charley Chaplin movies. The purpose of this was to teach them the techniques of simple movie making. Painting, sculpturing, graphics, and photography were offered to art stu- dents this year while exceptional stu- � ” dent art projects, chosen by a commit- tee made up of students, constituted a travelling show that toured area banks. Undoubtedly quite a change from what most of us remember our art classes as, this course provided oppor- tunities for anyone interested in taking advantage of them.

The six school choral festival at Penn, local contest ensembles, and the three-day choir camp at Epworth Forest before the opening of school headed a long list of choir activities. Choirs may have been busy, but the same hectic pace was also undertaken by the band and orchestra. Besides performing symphonic con- certs, ensembles, and contests, band members marched under drizzling rain with wet feet and soggy music folios every Thursday night on Rice Field for weeks. Rhythmic, majestic, and flowing or- chestra performances, in comparison to the screeching warm-ups, drew loud ap- plause from capacity crowds. CONCENTRATION shows on Don Stevens’ face.

CO-OP EDUCATION: Part-time training on job is helpful Getting out of school after fourth hour, not being allowed to eat lunch in the high school cafeteria, making money during school hours and receiv- ing high school credit at the same time made co-op education exceeding- ly desirable for one-hundred and sixty seniors. Although the program practically in- sured a well-paying after school and summer job, the arrangement wasn't perfect. This is true of most new pro- grams, however, and problems turning up this year will be ironed out in the | following school year. | Mr. James Broadbent, industrial co- operative training and food services co- ordinator, summed up the success of the system: ''I feel that our cooperative i! education prod ales highly haa STERILIZING equipment is a part of Arlene | ful this year and that it served the needs Duncan's job as a Co-op nurse's aide.

Offering a co-operative office educa- tion class, office machine classes, and personal business management courses for the first time enabled the depart- ment to expand over last year's pro- gram. To contribute to the general educa- tion of high school youths and provide opportunities to acquire vocational and technical competencies,’ was the goal of the department set forth by its chair- man, Mr. Joseph Scher. Overlooking the minor frustrations of making three errors on a two error timed test and breaking the lead on your pen- cil during five minute dictations, business education students agreed that the re- sults were worth it.

Several informative field trips were also taken during the year: family living classes visited the obstetrics ward at Elk- hart General Hospital; housing classes toured model homes; and the co-opera- tive food service class traveled to a man- ufacturer of institutional food prepara- tion equipment in South Bend.

Chris Phillips and Claire Forbes, PENNANT ANNUAL: Full coverage of EHS is ‘what's happening’ Adding 40 pages and an “all new look caused extra work this year for the annual staff. Tensions mounted and time shoved on and on until deadlines were met, until our book was com- pleted. With “informality'’ as the by-word, we dedicated ourselves to depicting a typical school day and the complete school year. Lively copy, informative but funny headlines, more color plus fall, winter, and spring coverage made our yearbook ''what's happening”. Our November campaign for summer delivery was an overwhelming success. Enthusiasm soared and resulted in the ordering of 2,200 annuals, an increase of 400 books over last year. April | deadlines posed another prob- lem: the completion of our first 100 pages. Any of us will testify that spring vacation brought more work than play.

' On closer observation between the psychedelic posters, we noticed two figures huddled in a corner, counting the squares. We also noticed that the clicking of Becky's typewriter was oc- casionally interrupted by her daily re- arrangement of annual material.

PENPOINT; RUSSIAN STUDY: Creative talent encouraged in publication; Russian language delved into after school Wading through stacks of papers, Jeanne Holtz, editor, and Mr. Nellist's journalism class found EHS had more tal- ented students than they had bargained for. Artists of pen and ink, paint brush and camera, all sparked by ingenuity, contributed their works for this anthol- ogy. With the purpose of recognizing the gifted students of the high school, the Penpoint is a collection of this genera- tion's best works in art and literature. Ranging from the humorous and ri- diculous to the dramatic and serious, the content provided something for every- one. According to a survey taken, forty- two percent of the students indicated that they would purchase a copy. For a mere cost of fifty cents, the compiled Penpoint reflected the mood, feelings and concern of the teenagers in this school. Armed with books, paper, notes and a lot of determination, the Russian S tudy Club trotted to Mr. George Ale- zenko's room once a week to undertake the difficult task of learning the Russian language. The members employed the use of ALM tapes, dialogs, books and maga- zines to aid them in their goal of master- ing Russian. This year the club met after school. If you talked to any of the members, you would soon find out that Russian is just as challenging as it looks. After all, not just anyone can say, ''l speak Rus- sian, especially in Russian.

Because of tough judging and com- petition, only three speakers made it through the regionals. Marsha Sowles and Mike Maron in debate and Jane Hamlin in radio represented EHS at the state in March.

Gridiron A Go-Go, the start of all the coming events, paved the way for an evening of excitement at the Football Homecoming. Both teachers and students could dance their troubles away. October found the Council sponsoring another frolicking affair by the name of Twist-n-Treat.'' The atmosphere, be- cause of Halloween, made the dance spooky, but a success. Christmas would not have been Christmas without the annual Deck the Halls’ party. All the decorations throughout the school were put up in one night. Students arriving the next day were amazed at the transformation that had come over the once empty halls. Christmas baskets were sent to over twenty needy families in the area during this time. Basketball season marked several im- portant events. The newly established GERB = (Goshen-Elkhart-Redskin-Blazer) plaque and symbol was awarded to the winner of the Gohen-Elkhart game which was Elkhart. Held during the regional basketball games, the Food 'n Frug was the Coun- cil’s best money making project. The March of Dimes campaign brought runny noses and wet feet to members standing in below-zero weather ringing bells. With the end of the year came an onslaught of activities. The Student Memorial Plaque, for graduates of E.H.S. who died in Vietnam, the school crest, Track Queen, as well as Com- munity Beautification, which brought out a great number of volunteers to aid in cleaning the area around the school and the parks in the city. Another success, the Big Brother program, gave under- privileged children the chance to use the library, visit parks and zoos. As can be seen, from Gridiron A Go- Go to the crowning of the track Queen, the Student Council never failed to provide an opportunity for student in- volvement.

From there they have gone on to bigger and better things. The citizenship committee has been active all year organizing service proj- ects, ushering at choir concerts, keeping 25 squirming children entertained on March 17, and cheering up patients at the psychiatric ward. The members also prepared cookie baskets at Christmas, delivered them, and caroled at the County Home. The members enjoyed this as much as the old people and even the Willis’ and Marts got the benefit of the caroling chorus. The scholarship fund benefited from the car wash on April 17. Induction took place on May 13, and 125 juniors and seniors were added to the club. HARD WORK is somehow fun when you're do- ing it as a money-making club project.

FUTURE TEACHERS: Meetings, projects activate members Chaos may have described the meetings, but organization summed up the activities of the FTA this year. Activities ranged from the erection of a homecoming float to a car wash at the end of the year. However, these were interrupted periodically with visits from local teachers to dis- cuss problems and techniques of the teaching profession. Mr. Bontrager, a social studies teacher, debated the teacher's teach- ing unions versus the educational as- sociation with the department chair- man of social studies, Mr. Stinespring. The arrival of spring marked two important events. ‘Spring Fever'' es- caped in the EHS cafeteria as the sophomore FTA sponsored a dance where even the weary teachers could let down their hair. The other event terminated the hard work displayed by the club this year. At the annual FTA State con- vention, Sue Scott was initiated as one of the district Vice-Presidents. Along with this, their scrapbook was given an honorable mention. SPRING fever attacks not only the members of the club but the sophomore officers as well. Officers attracted to the wishing well are: Nancy Alleshaski, Vice-President; Marianne Harris and Jerry Sargent, Committee Chairmen; Mike Ritchie, Treasurer; Mike Lemna, President; Natalie Brown, Secretary.

FUTURE MEDICS: Service to Elkhart promoted actively We didn't do a bloody thing all year, remarked one future medic jokingly. But seriously, we were ex- tremely busy executing, quite blood- lessly, a Christmas party for under- privileged kids, assisting adults in rais- ing money for the heart fund, and visit- ing Michael Reese Hospital in Chicago. These all will benefit us greatly in future community relations. This year's club concentrated on monthly activities. Their float at home- coming won the prize for most origin- al. Thanksgiving Day was made brighter for a family with a basket donated by the club. Each month bulletin boards, ranging in subject matter from tuberculosis to breakfast, were put up in G hall. Mittens colorfully covered the wall in the dispensary during the Yuletide sea- son and supplied children with mittens for winter. Springtime was brought to elderly people with an Easter party for them in April.

CURRENT EVENTS CLUB; FUTURE HOMEMAKERS: Important current happenings are discussed; Presidential race, Vietnam are key issues Bobbie, McCarthy, or Nixon for pres- ident? What should our policy be in Vietnam? What are the causes of racial rioting and how can they be eliminated? These and many more issues were dis- cussed in Current Events Club, with the American involvement in Vietnam and the race for the presidency generating the most interest. These issues provoked much debate with members taking many sides. Sponsors of Current Events Club, Mr. John Stinespring and Mr. Gordon Byrd, assisted officers in scheduling a variety of interesting and informative guest speakers. Though sophomore club members on- ly numbered four students, these four boys made up in enthusiasm for what they lacked in numbers. One of the highlights of the sopho- more club was the sampling of student opinion on the students’ choice of the next President of the United States. Re- sults were not disclosed to the annual staff but you can bet that Current Events Club members were well informed on the issues. POLL IS POSTED by Michael Dixon and Da- vid De Golier.

But cheerblock went on to boost the Blazers in the ups and downs of basketball. Meeting every Wednesday from 5:30 to 6:30, the girls practiced songs, cheers, and hand motions until throats were hoarse and navy skirts thread-bare. At game time the only thing that mattered was how they could help the Bellmen, even if it did take some tears. A welcome addition this year was bright blue vests. They replaced the over-stretched and faded jerseys that had been a familiar sight for many years. An old organization at EHS, Cheer- block provided the much needed spark and spirit to the home games. 250 cheering girls boost Blazer spirit; letter sweater boys work hard for award Hours of back-breaking, muscle-strain- ing practice, cold dinners and cold show- ers plus moments of ecstasy in victory and then tears in defeat were shared by Varsity members this year. The reward for all this was in receiving that coveted letter sweater from Mr. Silcott. Privileges of this club ranged from giving up their ' 'E'' sweaters at tourney time, getting the best seats for the bas- ketball games and creating chaos at Ziesel's for the March of Dimes. Exceptional strength, weight or speed was not necessary in order to be a let- terman, but it did take team pride, en- durance and determination to win. The evidence of these qualities can be seen in the many Blazers who belong to Varsity Club. READY for a serve is Carolyn Wolff. SEAT DROP is practiced by Sue Hillman. TIPPING the volleyball is Pam Damp. A GAA: Fundamentals, fun, recreation stressed Girls sporting slings, broken legs and bruises from head to toe didn't belong to this year's GAA. These girls learned the rules of the games. Fundamentals of basketball, tennis and volleyball plus instruction in trampoline were taught by sponsors Miss Kendall and Miss Linkmeyer. The girls competed in inter-county matches in these sports. Although their records were not excep- tional, they did prove how you play the game is the important part of ath- letic events. Volley , serve’, dribble and seat drop were all new terms added to their vocabulary. Friends, good sportsmanship, and coordination were benefits of be- longing to the club. Getting together to have fun with friends and learning the most about sports were the goals of the GAA.

This was the invitation Mr. Rohrer, club sponsor, extended to all interested in ham radio operations. The club met during the regular school day, but if you drove down Main Street on Monday nights you may have seen several sophomore members run ning to their weekly night meetings. These devoted participants either scurried to their radio sets and prepared for an hour of listening to amateur sta- tions throughout the U. S. or studied ra- dio theory in order to pass tests for op- erator's licenses. Qualifications for membership required time and a willingness to learn. The re- sults were found in enjoyable evenings and maybe your own operator's license. Although the activities of the Chess Club were limited to playing chess, much variation and excitement was prevalent at their club meetings. The club sponsors, Mr. Wright and Mr. Evans, organized the group to pro- vide those who enjoyed the suspense of a well-played chess game with the right atmosphere. All members of the club built their skills to record highs and used their new- ly acquired knowledge in the numerous matches held during the meetings. A good number of members had an opportunity to apply their skills in the Student Council sponsored Student-Fac- ulty Athletic Competition. The students put up a good fight but the teachers still won. Anyone for a game of chess? CHESS is only as boring as you want to make it Nathan Habegger and Terri Osterloo find enjoyment in their game. FBLA: Business interest is promoted by students Members of Future Business Leaders of America have been invading business classes all year to promote enthusiasm for the co-operative Business Education courses offered to EHS seniors. Mr. Lupold, club sponsor, felt that the club had accomplished much since its organization this year. The twenty faithful members stood at their respective places of employment during the dead of winter to raise mon- ey for the March of Dimes. Their efforts were rewarded, however, with a year-end banquet which was held for employers and members of the club. If the response to the club is as great next year as it was this year, many more projects may be undertaken. ONE BOY always sticks out in a crowd. In this case it is Steve Nagy.

THESPIANS: Strains of laughter echo in auditorium Project! Louder! Pick up your cues! The hoarse voice of Mrs. Strain rang through the deserted auditorium. And there, it gradually became lost in the confusion and laughter of kids working together to produce a play. Thespians were active in all the school plays produced but were particularly involved in the produc- tion of Witness for the Prosecution, the Drama Festival, and the Senior Happening. On May 25, Thespians went on their annual trip to Chicaqo. They saw a production of A Midsummer Night's Dream and Mame. The high- light of the trip was talking with Celeste Holm after the performance. The year ended with the banquet on May 28, and many Thespians left with wonderful memories of a very successful year.

The occasion was the Caberet and the turnout deemed it a success, This drama group was kept busy with the production of Truman Capote's A Christmas Memory and in January par- ticipated in the Drama Festival held by Thespians. While Twin Masks worked on plays, members of the Paint and Palette Club were greeted with a conglomeration of half-opened, half-used, half-saved, half- new paint jars. In the process of ac- complishing their goal which was to en- lighten the minds of other students on art, they had several guest speakers talk on the various facets of art. To conclude the year, the club combined their talents and sponsored the 2nd annual Spring Art Exhibit.

SOPHOMORE CHOIR: Lund directs 232 of sophomore class Nearly one-fourth of the Sophomore class participated in choral activities this year under the direction of Mr. Lund. The choirs first presented a Thanks- giving Assembly on November 22. In early December they joined the Senior Division in performing the annual Christ- mas Concert. The Sophomore orchestra, band and choirs combined in their con- cert on January 25. The finale of the concert ''From Sea to Shining Sea was particularly memorable. Sophomore Singers received excellent and superior ratings at the NISBOVA contest. March found the 'Sophs'' busy preparing for and taking part in the Six School and the Junior-Senior High Festivals. In our last appearance of the school year we joined the Senior Division Choirs in the May Spring Concert.

Three months of work prepared all the choirs for the Christmas concerts on December 7, 8, 9. As usual the last minute robe pressing, word memoriz- ing and processional light checking kept everyone busy. The Girl's choir and Con- cert Choir sang respectively ''The Lit- tle Babe ' and ''Deo Gracias'', selections from Ceremony of Carols. During the week of December 18, Concert choir members caroled at local banks and Ziesal's during the noon hour. Other holiday activities included singing for the Rotary club December || and mak- ing a T. V. tape from inside the First National Bank on December 14. Local contests, on January 9, sneaked up on the choirs a week after Christmas vacation. Successful participants con- tinued to district contests January 27 and state contests at Butler University February 17. For the two months of January and February, the concert choir struggled to work out the ‘Shubert Mass in G'' and Apostrophe to the Heavenly Hosts’' which they performed for the Fred Wil- kins benefit on February 25. The choir later sang by request the ''Apostrophe ’ for Fred Wilkins memorial and funeral services on April 19, 1968. The Mennonite Seminary hosted the Concert choir on March 10 for an in- vitational concert of the ''Mass'' and Apostrophe . A reception for the choir members followed the program. A pup- pet opera and authentic Swedish smorgasborg highlighted the Concert Choir and senior trip to Kung'sholm in Chicago during spring vacation, March 29. A week later the choir performed Ballad of Brotherhood with the or- chestra.

Jan- uary 25 was their first concert which fea- tured Nancy Kauffman as violin soloist and Michael Freeman as student con- ductor. In February the sophomores were kept quite busy with the District and State contests.

The program varied from Jamaican Rumba’ by Arthur Ben- jamin to Symphony No. 4 by Anton Dvorak. Beth Funk was featured as violin soloist and Karen Friesner as Junior Di- rector. During the year the orchestra also participated in three Christmas pro- grams, two Spring choral concerts, and the North Central Community Or- chestra, and numerous ensemble per- formances in the community. In the fol- lowing few months the students worked hard to prepare for the district and state contest where they earned 157 total medals. The combined orchestra concert was April 5 and featured both the Sopho- more and Senior Orchestras. Ray Ulery two brilliant concerts was featured as cello soloist. The Sen- ior Orchestra performed again the fol- lowing night April 6 where they were featured as the guest orchestra at the String Clinic at Man- chester College. Selections varied from Music for Orchestra’ by Vaclav Nelhy- bel, to the Finale to Symphony No. 5 by Jean Sibelius directed by Dr. Robert H. Klotman, guest Manchester conductor. The or- chestra received many honors as a result of this fine, performance. Orchestra members expressed feelings of deep in- spiration from this rewarding experience. The final appearance for the orchestra was May 24 on the annual Senior Con- cert. Shirley Schwickrath was featured as cello soloist and Brenda Kline as Sen- ior Direcior.

Traditions upheld in band and orchestra The year 1967-68 brought a new tra- dition to the Senior Orchestra. Brenda Kline found it lucky to wear a red garter above her left knee. Don't be surprised if the concert mistress of next year's Orchestra carries on this tradition. The band also has a flag-pole cere- mony eve ry marching season.

Several ap- pearances were made at the pre-game and half time shows during the football season. The band also participated in the first homecoming parade and other | alumni activities. | The sophomore division high school enjoyed the services of the first all sophomore pep band, with many of these same players performing with the senior division basketball pep band. The first Stage Band on the sopho- more level was organized this year. In addition to appearing on an assembly program, the band entered the District Contest and received a rating of Excel- lent. The second annual all-sophomore con- cert was given on January 25 with the orchestra and choirs. Featured in this concert were Dennis Wakeman playing the Hummel Trumpet Concerto’ and the entire percussion section on ''Con- certino for Percussion . This perform- ance marked the debut of the new Con- cert Band uniforms. February was a busy month with 63% of the band's membership participating in District and State solo-ensemble con- tests, and receiving a record number of medals.

SYMPHONIC BAND: Approximately 64% of the band participated in the district and state solo-ensemble contests The EHS Symphonic Band opened the 1967-68 season by making an appear- ance in Chicago at the Riverview Park Mardi Gras Tournament of bands. Several nights preceding the appear- ance were spent in marching rehearsals in preparation for this event and the football season. The marching band pre- sented pre-game and halftime shows for six home football games. A_ special feature of one show was the appearance of guest soloist Bob Lowry as clarinet artist in the Licorice Stick Story. The band led the first homecoming parade and played for the bonfire and pep rally which followed. With three weeks of preparation after marching season, the band gave its first formal concert performance on Novem- ber 17. Featured in this concert were Nancy Wiseman, Piano soloist playing Introduction and Capriccio . Other selections included the 'Ramparts'’ and Overture for Band. In January and February, 64% of the band participated in the district and state solo-ensemble contests. The com- bined high school bands earned a record 455 medals in contest competition. The second annual combined bands concert was given on March 8 with Jack Kripl appearing as featured soloist with the Symphonic Band. Mr. Kripl is alto sax soloist and instructor at Michigan State University. Phil Stiver directed the band in Umbrellas of Cherbourg after his selection by the band as jun- ior conductor. The pep band appeared in new blue blazer jackets this year and performed for all home basketball games and pep assemblies. The stage band received superior ratings in the district and state contests in addition to presenting sever- al programs outside school. The Senior Concert of May 24 featured Debbie Muhlnickel as senior soloist playing Thoughts of Gold and Bill Yoder senior director conducting Festivo''. Other band selections in- cluded Colas Bruegnon ’ and ' 'Lieb- estod''. The band concluded the year by playing an assembly at North Side Jr. High, marching in the Memorial Day Parade, and performing for Com- mencement.

His gridders turned in a fine 7-3 record and a third place in the NIC. The 1967 Elkhart High football team started explosively as they felled S. B. St. Joe 18-6 and LaPorte 14-10. Kokomo was the next defeated, being taken on a 21-6 ride through Rice Field. S. B. Adams spoiled the Blue Blazer homecom- ing by beating them 14-6 but Elkhart bounced back the next week, squeezing past S. B. Riley 34-28. Arch-rival Goshen took a pounding by EHS this year as the Redskins were de- molished 34-6. Still, S. B. Washington be- gan the first.of two terrible losses for EHS.

Our lady coach most certainly knows what she is doing. Elkhart High welcomed Miss Karleen Richter as the new tennis mentor this TTT year. Being well qualified, Miss Richter was a five-time women's singles titlest, an instructor at Elcona, and the 1959 Indiana state Jr. champion while here in Elkhart. She graduated from EHS in 1960. The Blue started the year with two | returning lettermen in Dave Rymers and Dave Whittaker. Rymers, a junior, | completed the year with a 10-2 record. Tim Whistler, a B-teamer last year, ended 9-0 to be one of few ever un- defeated. Number one doubles Rymers and Marty Begley finished 6-2 as did the number two pair of Terry Johnson and John Lorenz. The magic number in NIC | play for the team was also 6-2. In the sectional, the Blazer netters became the first winner in this newly initiated tournament. Rymer's singles victory gave Elkhart this honor. 128 BLAZER THREESOME jog through American Park. Chuck Baker heads sectional placers. CROSS COUNTRY: Distance men run to sixth in state, win NIC The harriers continued their string of dual victories without defeat. They total 88 wins in a row. Coach Harvey will be looking for number !00 next year, For the sixth straight time, EHS stomped all opponents to win the con- ference title. Goshen made things close however in their one point loss to us. Going back into the twelve years Mr. Harvey has been chief, the runners have won nine sectionals, qualified for ten of twelve state meets, and com- piled an overall 146-18 record with nine losses in 1961. Team captain Ron Thompson placed 13th in the state meet to lead the Blue to a sixth place at Indianapolis. Chuck Baker popped into the 17th place. Bob Sampers was 45th. Thomp- son and Sampers were the only seniors. Sophomore Jerry Shank broke into the group as the only one in his class. With the material at hand coming back next year, the outlook for our runners seems bright. Six lettermen will return plus any freshman _ prospects which are bound to appear. Hopefully the harriers and the rank of first will be together throughout the entire year next season so a_long-sought state championship can be achieved. S. B. Wash. S. B. Adams S. B.

Ta — | ANOTHER VICTORY goes to Jim Nielsen as he uses a half-nelson. Team cooperation, hard work, spirit, talent, and the expert guidance of coach Rollie Hoover brought EHS the coveted state wrestling crown. This is Elkhart's first real championship, being statewide, and is the greatest honor that can be paid to a Hoosier athlete. Elkhart High School is proud to have such an out- standing group of boys within its halls. The grappling year started as it has in other years. The squad had about the same number of returning lettermen with a few outstanding individuals (as had other years). They plugged along in a winning way without much notice from the student body, finishing second in the North Central Tourney and first in the Crawfordsville Invitational. They lost on- ly one meet all year and that was to tough South Bend Central. Near sectional time in conjunction with the ‘Beautify Blazer Country cam- paign, crowds began to gather at wres- tling meets. People began to realize that wrestling was an exciting and worthwhile spectator sport. Noise soon echoed from the usually silent gym during matches. Spectators followed our team wherever they went. With this type of enthusiasm for support, our boys went far. « os sal = bs GOING FOR A FALL, the state 133 Ib. champ and co-MVP, Gary Kratzer, rides his opponent our 1967-68 Indiana State Wrestling Champions VARSITY WRESTLERS—Row I: Doug Stoll, coach), Tim Steffen, Larry Coleman, Terry Randy Kreider, Neil Crofoot, Joe Montagano, Schroth, Ron Nielsen, Marshall McCullough, Kevin McCrory, Gary Kratzer, Jim Nielsen, and é Steve Salee, and Coach Rollie Hoover. 3 Kenric McCrory.

SWIMMING: Powerful individuals help EHS swimmers continued their drive | to improvement in the 1967-68 season. They recorded 4 wins and 9 losses but finished fourth in the NIC and turned in a tine second place in the sectional. John Elliott, Brian Leeth, Bob Melvin, and David King qualified for the state | meet. Every one of Elkhart High's swim- ming records was broken this year. Depth was a major problem for the ream. Problems arose especially in the relay combinations. Due to this, there was no other alternative but to try for a victory in just one of the two relays at each meet. A first place relay team in duel meets is awarded seven points. eng mas a Second place receives no points. The tankers were in close contention in many of their losing efforts up until the final relay. Elliott (team captain) provided our op- position competition in the 400 yd. free and the 200 yd. medley. King was a standout in diving. Melvin, Leeth, Fred Summers, and Bob O'Neil added strength. Graduation will hurt the squad but the developing interest in this de- veloping sport will keep the Blue Blazer Swimmers’ improvement at a high. . : ena ee ns SPRINGING BACKWARDS, backstroker Tim Brutnell begins his race.

Coach Lar- ry Colburn's 1968 statistic book proved this. On the average, 75% of all points scored at each meet were obtained from underclass talent. The squad's top two scorers were juniors Gary Best and Jim McNutt respectively. Senior Dekater Suggs and Junior Gary Grames fol- lowed. Seven exercises make up a gymnastics meet. They are the horizontal bar, side horse, floor exercises, parallel bars, trampoline, tumbling, and_ still rings. Trampoline was Elkhart's specialty. The gests it two high point juniors along with Dave Horton formed a formidable bunch of bouncers for all EHS competition. Hor- ton and Best traveled to the state meet where Best sprung to third place. Sophomore Kevin Murphy was con- sistent in the side horse to keep that as a scoring threat. Suggs was the horizontal bar man. Still another fledg- ling, sophomore Tom Thornton, proved he could fly in the eagle world of varsity competition. He was a steady performer on the parallel bars all year. He too went to the state meet. The team had a 3-7 mark. Next sea- son's expected rise in team strength along with the present — individual strength should swing our gymnasts into higher atmosphere.

THE HUDDLE. VARSITY BASKETBALL: Cagers have great home season; share NIC title During the regular season, Northside Gym was a forbidden spot to victory seekers. The home fans were never dis- appointed. Blazer opponents walked out of the gym with blurred eyes from our ball handling crew and ringing ears from our loyal fans. We were undefeated at home. “Will Elkhart break the Nappanee jinx?'' asked EHS fans before the season opener. Little did they know that the Blazers would torque-out to share the Northern Indiana Conference title with the Michigan City Red Devils. About the only dissatisfaction con- cerning the team on everyone's part during the season was the poor show- ing the Blue Blazer cagers gave during sectionals. After an over-time with Goshen and a romp past Jimtown, de- feat came at the hands of a surprising Penn team. Coming at a most unfortu- nate time, this was the only defeat for the Blue at Northside all year. High point man for the Blazer group was Richard Habegger. He also copped the Most Valuable Player award for the second time. Directly back of him in the scoring department came Orderia Mitchell and team captain Pat Murphy. Habegger grabbed the most rebounds with Mitchell right behind once again. Two-tenths of a percent gave Mitchell his only first of the season which was free throw average. He made 66.6% while Habeggar hung in for a 66.4%. Playmaker Gary Elliot led the team in assists. Garvin Roberson proved to be most outstanding when he broke into the starting line-up early in the season Being only a tenth-grader, the lanky for- ward broke the former sophomore point record by racking up a 245 total. The team's season contained 18 triumphs and 5 losses. The dean of the NIC basketball coaches retired this season after four- teen years. Blue Blazer fans were shocked and saddened upon hearing this. The dean was our own coach, Mr. Max Bell, a gentleman and a scholar. LEAPING CENTER Habegger tips for two. Accelerating Gary Elliot flys past Riley guard.

GOLF: Underclassmen dominate linksmen, tough competition sharpens scoring Breaking clubs, not replacing divots, and learning to keep your head down were all part of the golf season this year. The linksmen placed a not too bad sixth in the tough NIC. They also grabbed a fine second in the sectional tournament. The golfers recorded an average of 333.12 per match which is a good 83.28 per man. Most valuable golfer Wayne Lansche zoomed out front with a 80.4 average. Sophomore John Ruppert had 83.5 and Mike Marohn, 83.8. All are underclassmen. Lansche had a low of 7! and an 80.5 in the conference. Lone senior Bob Shlitz played the number four spot. He cashed in at 84.2 this season. John Bibbo brought up the rear, shooting an 84.5 average. Obviously, youth is dominant on the squad. Coach Gordon Byrd should have an improved bunch next year.

Steve Salee led overall with a .308 an d Garvin Rober- son was out front in NIC play with .294. The Blazers burned the bases when they stole 100 out of II! all year. Pat Murphy led with 24. Salee and Dave Walker each had |! RBI's to tie for that honor. The team distinguished itself by winning the first sectional play-off game ever for EHS and beating Goshen twice. Murphy and Don Presser were the co-captains of this group. Walker was named outstanding de- fensive man, and Murphy, the most out- standing offensive one.

SUPERINTENDENT OF SCHOOLS, Mr. Harold Oyer, assumes total responsibility for all schools in the Elkhart Community School corporation. r OLD ADMINISTRATION building will be replaced by a much needed new one. ASSISTANT SUPERINTENDENT in charge of schools is Dr. Ivan Fitzwater. ADMINISTRATION: Old building houses modern educators Inside the well-kept, but rapidly dete- riorating old building on Franklin Street, the Superintendent carries out the policies adopted by the School Board. Extremely interested in all phases of school life, the Board has accomplished many things this year. The most out- standing of these has been the planning and letting of bids for the new swim- ming pool. Other accomplishments have in- cluded: the approval of landscaping and outdoor athletic facilities de- veloped at the senior division, the Satellite lunch program, and approval and initiation of K-12 which involves sex education. Without the aid of the School Board to adopt much needed policies and without the help of the Superintendent to assign responsible people to carry out these policies, the school system would not be able to function. FINANCIAL AFFAIRS are handled by Mr. Maurice Burns, DIRECTOR OF SECONDARY EDUCATION is Dr. Warren Breniman who is di- Assistant Superintendent for Business Affairs. rectly responsible for all junior and senior high schools and co-ordinates the work of the Sophomore and Senior Division.

The principals furthermore attempted to attend all school functions and made themselves as available as possible to the students.

There is one sentence | still remember. It said about my senior year, 'l think it will be one of the happiest and saddest years of your life. It was for me.'' Now after graduation, | look back and agree. For high school is a time of learning, not only scholastically but also just learn- ing to understand a little more of life. | hope this book helps each one of you to remember a special day or year of your life. | would like to express my apprecia- tion to R. S. Sutula Studio and sopho- more advisor Dave Yoder who gave us many hours of their time in pho- tography. Thanks also to Mr. James Bell, representative of Taylor Publishing Company. Miss McKeehan's help in picture scheduling and her support of our ef- forts to make improvements in our year- book was appreciated. The secretarial staff also helped in numerous ways. | also appreciate the confidence and support given us by Mr. Mart, Mr. Kauffman, Mr. Longenbaum and Mr. Williams. | would especially like to thank our advisor Mr. Kenton Monjon. He's filled with ideas after ideas that are very necessary to make a yearbook. And even after a tiring, hectic week before a deadline, he still feels enthusiastic towards his work and our yearbook. This encouragement helped all of us on the _ staff to keep learning and trying.
