Lexington High School - Minute Man Yearbook (Lexington, NE)

Page 17 text:

Those compiling the senior department gathered photographs and facts encompassing the activities of each individual. Members of the staff assigned to the junior, sophomore, and freshman classes selected appropriate theme songs to correspond with the action of the pictures. Their next step up the tone scale was to write an operetta about the respective classes. The junior high department created a lyrical poetry set to conform with the functions of the sub- dominant chord that rings through the halls of the second floor. Gathering stanzas of personal and classroom in- terests pertaining to the dignity and versatility of the maestros conducting the Symphonette of Learningn was apportioned to the faculty and administration committee. Issuing forth a repertoire of jazz licks concerning extra-curricular activities was the requirement of four staff members. It was requisite for the sports departinent to keep in time with the football, basketball, and track events of the year. The first step up the tone scale for the miscellan- eous section was choosing favorites from the classical pictures of the good old days. Their final step was in- dexing the musical notes of L. H. S. The fingers of the typists flew over the keys as they completed the final step of this concert tour. f . , i J EDITORS Margaret Gauger Mary Lou Pittack BUSINESS MANAGERS Benjamin Clarence Neff, Jr. Carolyn Speak SENIOR DEPARTMENT Marlene Evans Sue Gierhan Phil Hodges JUNIOR DEPARTMENT Kate O'Connor Shirley Brummet Angie Munoz Eunice Osmera SOPHOMORE DEPARTMENT Pat Rathke Liz Glenn Bernita Tanner Marlene Triplett FRESHMAN DEPARTMENT Janet George Shirley Rohnert Sherry Sieg Margaret Wallace JUNIOR HIGH DEPARTMENT Norma Lange Shirley Knispel Don Schinzel John Wallace FACULTY AND ADMINISTRATION Carolyn Carroll Marge Hamar Libby Rae Paul Elvira Sandquist ORGANIZATIONS Skip Greenlee Al J essen Donna Schrack J 0 West I SPORTS Don Ryan Jane Jeffrey Kyle Jeffrey STUDEENT IgPE-Dixiglf :Xndix-son, LII-'Egish ESf'I1liXCY-gan I Schigzel, Roy Keenan umce smera. ir ey rum- o n a ace. aro e yer. mei, Kate O'Connor.

The annual staff acquired a terminology entirely different from their everyday conver- sation, for all of the write-ups were composed in a musical nomenclature. It is through the combined efforts of not only those who have taken a direct part play- ing in this symphonette, but also the crews behind the scenes working to finance this tremendous undertaking, that has enabled the Class of '53 to present this book to you With a Song in My Heart.
