WEST POINT HIGH SCHOOL West Point. Nebraska Peggy Puckett - Editor 'vrXii £ Good-by To Memories Last fall, as the 1973-74 school year began, we expected an uneventful. mediocre year. Many felt the athletic teams were going to be average, perhaps the football and basketball teams would win at least half of their games, but we anticipated nothing really outstanding. Maybe'' the volleyball girls would return to the State Tournament. Maybe'' at least a couple of our wrestlers would travel to State. Maybe the track team would do well. The prospects of moving into the new school at the semester break were very dim and the old. dismal building would be home for yet another year, adding more disappointments to what loomed as a disappointing year. Then WOW! The year turned out to be one of the MOST EVENTFUL, fantastic years in WPHS history. The football team was Huskcr Co-Champs. Volleyball went to State for the second year in a row. The basketball team went to State for the first time in 22 years. Seven students made it to State in Speech. Five wrestlers made State with two earning third place finishes. Track won districts with six people going to State. Musical department rated excellent at Contest. Golf team went to State for the second consecutive year. FHA and FFA won many State Awards. The Annual Staff dedicates this book to everyone who helped make 1973-74 great. Hello To Dreams 0 Superintendent Mr. Lowe was at WPHS for five years.

Their record sales helped them present the Seniors with a very successful “Showboat. This eventually came about after many long nights of making and remaking flats, painting, and trying to keep Mr. Hallgren from noticing the ones who weren’t working. After dancing to The Shotgun, everyone went to the drive-in to see the late. late, late movies (Bless The Beasts and The Children and Godspell) that lasted till about 4:30 A. M. Strangely enough though, no one had trouble staying awake due to the various activities taking place.

After mastering the switch from rural or city eighth grades to the hustle and confusion of senior high school, the freshmen contributed much of themselves to the successful athletic seasons and to the debate and declam activities. Next year, the older and wiser freshman class will undoubtedly perform an even more valuable role in the life of WPHS. NOT PICTURED: Paulo Bezerra and Karen Stine.
