Display School Spirit spirit by participating in the sport and by supporting each other in the stands. H-Club is an honorary organization for young men who have earned a varsity letter in one of the major sports-football, basketball, track or golf. This year the H-Club had 26 members. The major activities of H-Club were sponsoring the football homecoming dance and crowning the queen. At the homecoming ceremonies the queen and her attendants received corsages and football necklaces. A special gift to the queen was a bouquet of roses. That evening the Coachmen provided music for the dance. H-Club was also co-sponsor with the Senior class for basketball homecoming. This fall H-Club members cleared the lot ad- jacent to the school, which is being used for a much needed parking lot. Another important activity of the club is pro- moting school spirit at pep rallies by cheering along with the Pep Club. The sponsor of H-Club, Mr. Snyder, talks over a problem with the officers, from left-President--Tom Messersmith, Secretory-Treasurer-Rod Christensen, and Vice President-Gory Riggs.

Pep Club and H Club At all the Bobcat sports the Pep Club is there to help promote school spirit. Through the Pep Club the participants in sports receive a higher incentive to do their best in a certain sport. For all the games and tournaments the Pep Girls decorated the blackboards and halls to increase school spirit and attendance at games. The main fund raising activity was the all-school play sponsored by the Pep Club. The money obtained from this project was used to finance the Pep Club ban- quet held in the spring and to help send the cheer- leaders to a summer workshop. The new varsity cheer- leaders and officers are revealed at the banquet. New Freshmen who wished to become members of the Pep Club were initiated in the fall. School spirit and yelling at games and pep rallies are not limited to just the Pep Club.

HHS Band Struts Proudly In New Uniforms Band officers, Bond Captain-Diane Gordon, Secretary-Nancy White, and Assistant Band Captain-David Minich, discuss some business with director Mr. Quinonez. Band plays a vital part in the academic part of school. It not only boosts its teams at football and basket- ball games, but it also boosts the town. Members, including seventh to twelfth grade stu- dents, made the 66-67 band complete in its sound. Most of the sections produced a good balance. Every year the band presents a spring and winter concert and participated in the District Music Contest. The band worked very hard and received an excellent rating. The band also performed at Chadron Band Day. This year the band was able to purchase new uni- forms. The uniforms had been needed for several years and marked the Centennial Year very well. In addition to the uniforms, new drums, a french horn, and a bass horn were also purchased. At the end of each year, the band parents hold a banquet to close band activities for the year. At the ban- quet, awards are given to outstanding members who have shown leadership and a will to work. Band, like other organizations, can be fulfilling to the members who participate in the activities. During a marching practice, Mr. Q. tells some of the band members to straighten their line. Leading the Bobcat Marching Band were Majorette-Linda Tschacher and Twirlers- Laura Yardley, Carol Johnson, and Peggy Campbell. 24
