Florence High School - Husky La Bran Yearbook (Florence, CO)

Text from Pages 1 - 128 of the 1963 volume:

THIS IS THE HUSKY 63 an annual publication of Florence High School, Florence, Colorado. The school is accredited with the North Central Accrediting Association and provides a four year curriculum of fundamental arts and sciences. An extensive vocational training program is included. Various activities aid in the development of a sound moral character and a well-rounded individual. On the following pages the Florence student is portrayed in different moods and emotions, each a special phase of Husky 63.

SOME OF US ARE BEAUTIFUL BEYOND THE ORDINARY; . . . 4 6 . . . SOME ARE CAPABLE OF GENERATING A CONTAGIOUS ENTHUSIASM AND LOYALTY, SOME ARE MORE SCHOLARLY, SOME MORE ATHLETIC, AND SOME MORE LIKEABLE THAN OTHERS .... 7 TO BE COMPLETELY HONEST, WE FIND OURSELVES IN THE BASICALLY DEMOCRATIC POSITION OF ADMITTING EACH OF US IS SUPERIOR IN SOME WAY. 9 SADIE HAWKINS DAY IS ALWAYS A FROLICKING SUCCESS Without doubt, one of the highlights of the school year is Sadie Hawkins Day when Florence High School annually takes on the appearance of Dogpatch. Starting in the morning, bizarre costumes and antics invade the classrooms and the day progresses to a riotous, climactic night in the gym where the traditional Sadie Hawkins dance is held in a setting of tumbleweeds, live squealing pigs, and an authentic outhouse (this year from Rockvale). Mysterious jugs, too, labeled with three X s appear and are sampled enthusiastically with a nonchalant toss of the shoulder while many a codger, with beard and corncob pipe appears on close inspection to be a faculty member. It's hard to say whether the faculty doesn't enjoy Sadie Hawkins Day as much or more than the students. Due to unforseen circumstances, the photographer was not available for the dance but we think you will enjoy these pictures taken during the day. At top left, Francine, Pat, Cheryl, Rena, Juanita, Rose and Martha seem determined to get their man and at left, Vicky and Becky were taken in the library. Two unidentified characters appear on the lawn and Dean Mac Kennon is the typical student, perhaps on Sadie Hawkins Day. 11 SCHOLASTICS AN ESTEEM FOR INTELLECT Concentration, thought, and mental discipline are fatiguing. Many courses require hours of work in preparation and are a constant challenge. A day of reading, writing, reciting and taking exams can be exhausting, but as the following pages show, Florence students take it seriously. 15 'WHAT DOES HE MEAN, ’the constitutional basis of American foreign “WHY CAN’T he ever ask u: policy?’ ” Judging from the expressions above, American government is not an easy subject. Shown as they appear in Mr. Benton’s class, are; Shirley Rocchio, Toni De La Rosa, and Doris Zulkowski. That the study of American government is not “all work and no play ’ is indicated at the right where, apparently, democracy has its lighter side. Working at the board are; Larry Lasha, David Ramos, Kathy Resendez, Fay Ferguson, and Mr. Benton. 16 something easy? AFTER A MOMENTS THOUGHT, the answer seems clear • ••� THIS FLAT TIRE was intentional. Norma Quintana, Rosemary Hernandez, Manual Alvarez, Nancy Comstock, Francis Donley, Lawrence Lair, and Joe Vigil learn the finer points of operating an automobile under the critical eye of Colin Johnson. Mr. Johnson is also an instructor in shop and is Head Wrestling Coach and an assistant football Coach. GUIDANCE IN A CHANGING Three general areas constitute Director is primarily concerned and individual adjustment guidance director, is shown SIMPLE READING, writing, and spelling have reached the heady heights of Chaucer, e 11 i p t i c a 1 clauses, coherence, and comprehensive research. Junior, Nancy Kunkle, has an engaging smile as she gives a book report. Mr. Sturdy is apparently pleased with the results of the assignment and a small gain is made in the never-ending struggle for an education. WORLD is built on changing concepts, the guidance problem and the Guidance with education, vocational counseling, factors. Frank Morelli, excellent with Junior, Kathy Simpson. CAN THE SINE of A equal .1822? Keith McKissick thinks so but Miss Klep .ig is not convinced. Her skepticism is probably justified and born of long experience. When she explains the correct method, the impossible problem from last nights’ homework seems very logical. THE SKILLED MACHINISTS seen down at the shop. Left to Right: Bill McWilliams, Danny Lloyd, Mr. Brunetto, Jerry Mei, Earl Monett Eddie Herrera, Charles Finney,and Joe Lippis. SHOWN IIER E, as they were momentarily persuaded to drop their tools are Don Scutti, James Garcia, Larry Lasha, John McDermott, Harry Sharp, Glendle Miller and Louie Grisenti. A TEN TON DUMP TRUCK gets a tune-up job by Billy Perdue, Kenneth Buchanan, and Bob Lind ley. Auto mechanics instructor. Mr. Meigs, offers technical advice and assistance. THE FORD MOTOR COMPANY donated this new motor to Florence High School. Smiles seen on Herb Woolsey, Hubert Dugan, Harvey Hammel and Billy Harrison register appropriate enthusiasm. 21 A PORTION OF THE SENIOR CLASS is seen above as Commencement is nearly over. FOUR YEARS OF EFFORT CULMINATE IN Commencement, of course, is a many splendored fusion of hallowed tradition, impressive ceremony,and ivy sentiment. It is a time, too, of fond memories, of future hopes, and of warm, human emotions. A year has passed and once again, the measured gait, the dignity of cap and gown, come forth in recognition. The Class of ’63 had endearing traits and was highly regarded by the faculty. It was composed of singularly well-balanced and capable individuals of whom the school and community may well be proud. One is consoled at the loss, perhaps, in the realization that the calibre of these students will be a distinct asset to society. 22 GRADUATION ABOVE. Right: Members of the graduating class proceed to the opening of commencement exercises. Caps and gowns (center) always require a last minute adjustment and at bottom, Sandra Kendall receives congratulations and her diploma from Mr. Howard. 23 CELEBRITIES 'AUTUMN CORONATION Exemplifying the charm, poise, and talent typical of Florence High School girls are HomecomingQueen Doris Zulkowski and, at right, her attendants Paula Novak, Candy Novak, Anne Heid and Gayle Ham. These celebrities were chosen by the F-Club and were honored during half-time ceremonies at the Foun-tain-Florence football game. ft PROM QUEEN The loveliest night of the year is, of course, the night of the Junior-Senior Prom. Enchantment reigns in the beautifully decorated gym and beautiful gowns and beautiful girls are everywhere. The honor of being chdsen Prom Queen this year was bestowed upon Pat Woolsey. Her attendants are, Toni Dela Rosa, Doris Ziolkowski and Lorraine Varela. THESE STUDENTS ARE OUTSTANDING IN THEIR FIELDS Reflecting a desire on the part of the yearbook staff to recognize those whose achievements are worthy, these pages are dedicated to students who are outstanding in their fields. In one way or another these students have achieved distinction that merits such recognition and their pictures here are well deserved. How interesting it would be, at this point, to be able to gaze into their future. DAVID RAMOS won a much deserved athletic scholarship to Adams State. RENA ESSMEIER was fourth finalist in a statewide SEVENTEEN fashion contest. WINNING CHAMPIONSHIPS in both league and district tournaments this year were Danny Gonzales, Royal Stainbrook, Filip Babitz, and Glendle Miller. Miller and Gonzales are seniors. LEFT TO RIGHT: Outstanding typists are Gloria Villagrana, Coleen Smith, Juanita Lewis, Mr. Smith, instructor;Carolyn Goodall, Nancy Kunkle and Karen Onstott. Coleen ranks first. IT WOULD BE DIFFICULT to find a more distinguished looking group than these members of the National Honor Society. The disciplined severity of greek columns provides an appropriate setting for their achievements in character and scholastic standing. Front Row: Joel Mascitelli, J. R. Phillips, and Tom Nelson. Second Row: Nancy Singleterry, Doris Zulkowski, Kathy Holley, Mr. Nichols, Miss Van Loo, Donna Mitchell. Back Row: Mr. Strickland, Mr. Benton, Mr. Reece, and Miss Hitchcock. FHA HAD an exceedingly active year of demonstrations, fashion shows, teas, and hay-rides. Karen Onstott brought honor to FHA by winning a Betty Crocker Award in cooking. THE PHOTOGENIC FACES of Gayle Ham, Doris Zulkowski, Frank Ayala, and David Ramos, have their counterpart in choral singing. This year these students are members of the State Chorus and their achievement reflects favorably on the music department. - A RESPECT FOR THINKING HONORS GO TO THESE STUDENTS who are scholastically at the top of their respective classes. At the top, left are: Cathy Perrino, Donna Mitchell, Kathy Holley, Rosemary Verlengia, Linda Hudnall, Vicky Tedesko, Carol Jones, and Paula Novak. At left are: Tom Nelson, Gerd Panke, TerryStevens.JoelMascitelli.David Zamarripa, Manual Ramos, Jim Roberts, and Jim Lucerna. Donna Mitchell, above, has achieved an A average for four years. 33 THESE STUDENTS ACHIEVED DISTINCTION JOE ALVAREZ achieved unusual distinction in the field of art. The outstanding art student in Florence High School for four years, he won many awards including an honorable mention in a national merchant marine contest, a regional gold key award in Denver, and five first prizes in different media at Pueblo College. PAULETTE RODRIGUEZ, having much to commend herself, finished her senior year with an excellent tenure of office. Conscientious and capable, Paulette’s leadership was outstanding. 34 DEDICATION If any group is deserving of the highest praise from both faculty members and student body, it is undoubtedly the cafeteria staff composed of Mrs. Banks, Mrs. Gonzales, Mrs. Phillips, Mrs. Sartoris, and Mrs. Piercy. Upon this group of worthy ladies falls the tremendous responsibility of planning and preparing some four hundred meals daily, and this formidable task they achieve with highly commendable skill. Theirs is a difficult work and, all too often, the hours of patient effort spent in baking, in serving, and in scrubbing, go unrecognized. Perhaps we may be forgiven if we fail, sometimes, to express our gratitude. If the pressures of time and scheduling do not always permit deserved recognition, may this dedication serve to remind them that their efforts are indeed appreciated -that we are indeed grateful for their excellent menus and their kindly, cheerful patience. 35 DONNA MITCHELL won distinction with a scholarship to Redlands University. Donna, in addition was chosen head girl. KATHLEEN HOLLEY was awarded a scholarship to Colorado State College. She received also, an iilks scholarship. HONOR WENT TO THESE GERD PANNKE was elected Head Boy for the school year and was honored with a scholarship to Colorado University. PEGGY BABITZ earned a scholarship to Colorado State College where she plans to major in music and minor in education. SENIORS AT GRADUATION ATHLETICS FRONT ROW: Harry Sharp, Louis Grisenti, Tom Miller, Dan Gonzales, Tom Nelson, Leon Mehle, Mike Donald Scutti, Gary Schmidt, Ken Weaver, Earl Monett, Terry Stevens, Darrell Browning, Joel Mascitelli, and backfield members pictured above won every game but two. The two games lost were to the La Junta final play-offs. Both schools, too, are moving from a double A to a triple A classification. Sport forecasts THE HEIRS TO A Those who represent us on the athletic field are the heirs of a great tradition--a tradition in which courage, drive, and determination speak through the years and are a shaping factor in the life of every athlete. A spirit is born of this tradition that pervading first, the playing field and locker room, comes finally to fill the hearts of all who are a part of Florence High School. The football season marks the beginning of each school sports year. To many it brings back memories, to others it is a hope for tomorrow. But to the men on the field, the actors in this drama, it is a present dynamic occurrence. To them this section of the Husky 63 pays tribute. Leyba, Glendle Miller, Raymond Garcia. BACK ROW: Head Coach Ed Maxwell, Bill Perdue, Fred Daniels, Royal Stainbrook, Assistant Coach Harold Williamson. This year wimessed a fine football season. The line Tigers and the Air Academy Kadets. Both La Junta and the Air Force went to state championships in the can be tricky, but even with a loss of nine seniors, die Huskies should be a power to contend with next year.

This game was dominated by the Huskies and the Gladiators seldom got past the fifty yard line. MEHLE is momentarily out of the game as he receives a helping hand from Coach Williamson, Coach Johnson, and Coach Maxwell. Mehle saw action again, a few minutes later, when he returned to score on an end run. 42 A KICK OFF is returned by Widefield and Fred Daniels, playing at right guard for the Huskies, moves in for the tackle. Averaging one hundred sixty pounds, this year’s line was above average in performance. THE HUSKIES, bruised and battered by the awesome power of the Air Force Academy, make a goal line stand. A nine-man line failed to stop the powerful offense as the Kadet’s quarterback plunged through on a keeper. AN ENTHUSIASM for danger and physical ACTIVITY NOURISHES THE FOOTBALL PERSONALITY WITH COURAGE AND AGGRESSIVE TRAITS 45 THE SIDELINES has its own emotions, its own anxieties, its own drama. All are intense but little publicized. The excitement of the game with Salida is mirrored in the posture of Husky ball players each anxious to enter the game. ALL THEY WANT TO DO IS WIN For unrelenting excitement, there is little to equal a high school basketball game, with its noisy, partisan crowds which so closely encircle the action on the floor that they themselves become an integral part of the game. F rom our point of view, this is particularly true when one of the teams is the Huskies. A side from emotional ties that perhaps color ones judgement, the Husky A Squad can always be counted on to turn in an exciting performance on several counts. Good ball control, good rebounding, and good shooting, of course, typify Husky teams as do good sportsmanship and good conduct. We feel, however, that the Huskies are an exciting team for one rdason--all they really want to do is win. WEAVER, at left, fails in a rebound effort against Cheyenne Mountain. Weaver made the All-Conference team this year. 47 MEMBERS OF THE A-SQUAD basketball team pose for a group picture. Front Row: Ray Moore, David Zamarripa, David Ramos, Tom Nelson, Manual Alvarez. Back Row: Coach Tom Gribben. James Garcia, Leon Mehle, Herb Woolsey, John Wells. Kenny Weaver, Darrell Browning, Harry Sharp. WOOLSEY, who can drive and shoot and feed and rebound, combines the classic mobility and cleverness of the backcourt man with the skill and strength needed to operate inside. Because of his 5 feet 11, he retains the skill of a superb athlete and is a far better allround player than if he were taller. Above, he drives for a lay-up. What sets the Husky ball team apart from the rest of the league is its aggressiveness and its chronic lack of height. It is a tribute to the coach and team members that they look and play like champions against opponents who average five inches taller.

What he lacks in heighth, he more than makes up in speed. In the last two years, he has developed a devastating jump shot which has determined the outcome of more than one game. 49 Over the years, the Florence athletic machine has acquired considerable depth. The coaching staff, for example, ranging from Mr. Meigs, Athletic Director, through Mr. Becco, Junior High Basketball Coach, is a masterpiece in harmonic functioning. Something like sixty-eight athletic events involving at least three hundred athletes make up the typical athletic calendar and in any given year the Huskies appear as top contenders in every bracket. PLAYING EXCEPTIONALLY GOOD BALL this year. The B-Squad basketball team ended up with an impressive 8-3 record. This fine performance by Coach Zamarripa and the players should indicate bright prospects for the future. Front Row: John Dela Rosa. Jack Thomas, Henry Ramos, and Bob Trujillo. Back Row: Ed Ossola, Lawrence Lair, Gary Conrado, Joe Garcia, and Coach Ben Zamarripa. Absent at the time the picture was taken were John Gonzales, Jack Sauer, Troy Templeton, and Lonnie Slater. THE FRESHMAN TEAM is seen at the right. Front Row: Tom Boone, Chuck Trujillo, Charles Blankenship, David Cristelli, Scott McCalister, and Bob Peterson. BACK ROW: Coach Harold Williamson, Paul Hardrick. Lonnie Loadar.Nick Avila, Richard Massaro, and Ken McDowell. 50 WHEN A BALL CLUB is assured of 20 points in every game from one man, it is bound to win more than a few. Ken Weaver is such a man for the Huskies. Above, he displays the form which makes him top rebounder and a top scorer this year.

We have been looking into the gym off and on all wrestling season and have ventured the opinion that this group of wrestlers was championship material. Defeating every team in the league by an average of fifteen points, Husky wrestlers attended the district match at Limon where they defeated their closest rival, Harrison, by a score of 71 to 54. We feel the wrestling coaches and team members did an outstanding job this year. DANNY GONZALES working for a break down against Hal Due 11 of Widefield, at 133 pounds.

The gym annually takes on fabulous decorations and in a beautiful setting, the gala evening progresses to its climax--the crowning of the Prom Queen. REFRESHMENTS served by Ramos are viewed with suspicion by Nancy, Doris, and Danny. Below: Sidney and Bud do their best, but it’s hard to get a word in edgewise with Gayle and Patty. The Prom has its statistical side--thirty gallons of punch (fruit juices, you understand), fifty-five packages of crepe paper, and hours of work go into a prom. And people, too, of course. Financially, the prom this year cost $334.67. The Junior class is bankrupt again, but this seems to be die normal state of affairs. Chronic poverty is one of thehazards seemingly common to all classes. dreamland, but Mark, dancing with tensile strength of the gym floor. Nancy, and others.

RESEMBLING A COLLEGE PLAY CAST on opening night are: Martha Williams, Rena Essmeier, Karen son. Standing, are Nancy Singleterry, Candy Novak, Carol Jones,and Nancy Kunkle. BEST PRODUCTION OF THE SEASON This year the student body and faculty were treated to a top-drawer dramatics production that was, to say the least, unique in its all-girl casting. One of the better plays to come along, “Nine Girls” was a mystery-thriller in the grand tradition and all three acts were concerned with comings and goings in a creepy, old house inhabited by sleep walkers, murderers, and nine apprehensive girls. “Nine Girls” was unique, too, in that the nine starring roles were equally well performed. Notable, perhaps, were the performances of Rena Essmeier, Kathy Simpson, and Carol Jones. Keith McKissick demonstrated a master touch with the lighting and props while Joe Alvarez and Raymond Rodriquez helped out with die scenery. ALFRED HITCHCOCK, that jolly old master of murder, would have loved this one. Nancy Kunkle tries to murder Carol Jones with a poker. At this point in the play, two murders had already been committed. Ons tott , M a r ie F algien, K athy S imp- NINE GIRLS MR. STURDY unwittingly offers a clue regarding his ability as an actor and producer. In directing Kathy Simpson in the “Macbeth” scene, he strikes a dramatic pose with the skill one might well expect from a Broadway production. This year, Mr. Sturdy has taken a teaching position in California and his departure will be an extremely unfortunate occurence particularly for the dramatic students. His advancement was, of course, inevitable, but he will be missed both by the student body who respected his teaching and by the faculty who enjoyed his genial friendship. WE WERE INFORMED, on good authority, that there were two hundred and twenty-four knotholes painted for the production of “Nine Girls”. We found these statistics intriguing and late one night, tiptoed back-stage to verify the count. We found only two hundred and twenty-two. THE CHEERLEADERS are woven inseparably into the pattern of school activities. Throughout the year they demonstrate a remarkable ability to keep up the pace occasioned by the ten football games, sixteen basketball games, and twelve wrestling matches. SHOWN HERE, as they manage to take time out for a picture, are Head Cheerleader Donna Mitchell, Cheerleader Linda Hudnall, Cheerleader Paula Novak, Head Cheerleader Pat Woolsey and Cheerleader Kathy Simpson. 64 WELLSPRING OF VITALITY AN EXUBERANT ENERGY CHARACTERIZES THIS COLORFUL GROUP AND THE MEMBERS WORK HARD TO BOOST SCHOOL SPIRIT, LEAD PEP RALLIES, AND CHEER AT GAMES.

A DEDICATED EDITOR AND STAFF JOE: “What do you think about black stripes on the division sheets0 68 Rough sketches at a yearbook clinic in September marked the beginning of this volume. Ideas grew to definite layouts during the fall. Minor crises came to be a steady diet and occasionally a staff member was threatened with heart failure. After all, what does an editor do when Mr. Duke s picture is cut in half, when the bill runs $200 over and when the publisher yells long distance from Kansas for copy? The staff this year consisted of an editor, business editor, art editor and a small group of dedicated staff members. The crew worked steadily on weekends, after school, during evenings and through lunch hours, at the formidable task of creating a “new look’ : Type, photography, and layout were used in a bolder manner and the result is, of course, the HUSKY “63 .
