THE BROKEN BOW WARRIOR 19 4 5 BROKEN BOW IiH,II SCHOOL Broken Bow, Nebraska £)ea-t ea e-ts, Ve so 1 e nnJy and opefuJIy dedicate this annual to ihe futuie of a lasting peace fo-x w)jrch wt aae jh t i nj and piepaiiny. jU, St.ff A Pledge We have paused for a moment to set up another milestone with the words, Broken Bow Warrior. 1945, written upon it. Despite troublous times of hardships, wars, heartaches, and bloodshed. we pause to address the alumni of the BBHS, the men and women who are in the service of the U. S. here and abroad, and those who will soon be enlisted. We are grateful to you. our heroes, for your grim determination and will power in carrying on on all the seven seas that we here at home may enjoy the privileges such as attending BBHS, playing, studying, writing, and preparing an annual. We are the beneficiaries of your sacrifices. You have toiled and labored unceasingly from day to day, week to week, and year to year. You have been mired in the jungles, tossed on the seas, and existed in foxholes that we may once more realize a peace, a peace of all mankind where no more of the followers of Hitler and Hirohito are tolerated. As you continue to give of yourselves, may we be able —to help you to shoulder the burden; —to give freely of all we have to offer: —to take our place willingly when we are called; —to continue our Democracy; —to preserve the American way of life; —to help write a lasting peace.

SENIOR CLASS HISTORY Looking at the class of 1945 as it appears today, one finds it rather hard to go way back to the day when this same group were freshmen. They started out about 80 in number, shy and green as any freshman class. The outstanding events in this year were the party at Lomax's lagoon in which Wally rather rushed the season by going swimming: a party in the old gym. with games and refreshments: the Ninth Grade Glee Christmas Program.” and last, but not least, graduation from Junior High. Diplomas were presented and Jackie Carothers made the welcoming speech. The officers were as follows: President. David Crouch: Vice-President. Jeanne Adams: Secretary, Ann Lomax: Treasurer, Donna Lee Heskett. Considerably wiser but still lacking dignity, the class began their second year of high school. There were two outstanding events during this year that are especially remembered— one with pride, the other—well, we shall pass it off as just being too young. The first was the opera. Sweethearts.” an all school production. If you saw it you probably remember it clearly and if yoti didn’t happen to be present at the time you probably know everything about it just from hearing it spoken of so much. The latter was a dance at the close of the year. One doesn’t hear very much about that except that all classes were forbidden parties or dances for quite some time. An all school Cavalcade of America was presented that year by the music department. Another picnic was enjoyed by the class, this time at Switzers’ grove. Sponsors were Miss Ray and Mr. Kasper, and officers were Bob Chase, President: Phil Gardner. Vice-President: Allan Brewer. Treasurer: Jeanne Adams. Secretary. The class began their Junior year with a spirit of enthusiasm, under the sponsorship of Miss Helen Scheve and with the following officers at the helm: President. Tom Dewey: Vice-President. Allan Brewer: Secretary. Jackie Carothers: Treasurer. Phil Gardner: Sergeant-at-Arms. David Crouch. At the beginning of December they staged their Junior Class play, Don’t Take My Penny. with favorable comments pouring in from all sides and pennies jingling in their pockets. In the spring, plans began for the Junior-Senior banquet and when the day arrived the Junior and Senior classes witnessed the glorious panorama of one of the greatest circuses in Broken Bow History. Carried out with unusual smoothness, the banquet was a huge success. The Junior-Senior Prom topped off the evening. Climaxing this year was the picnic at New Helena. In spite of the bus breaking down and. as a result, a walk of a mile and a half, the class parted with the remembrance of this hilarious time to return in the fall as Seniors. After some weeks of enjoying their Senior prestige, the members of the class. 65 in number, settled down with a determination to work hard and get those credits. Miss Helen Scheve was again made class sponsor. Well represented in all extra curricular activities, the Seniors gained distinction for themselves in many fields. When the annual goes to press we shall have lost three boys to the armed services and with the exception of those who may leave later, the graduating class will number 64. We have enjoyed our school years in Broken Bow and as we leave, we carry with us many memories— memories that will live with us always. DORIS I.HH WELLS College Prep Then she will talk! Yc Gods!

Watch this boy next year! Clair Williams—B Junior Tackle Clair moved into a first team position and proved that he was capable of handling it although he lacked experience. He was a natural ball player. His alertness proved to be very helpful through the season. Wayne Brewer—B Junior Back Wayne was an excellent blocking back who was able to keep ahead of the ball carrier and open the field for him. He is also a fine passer and should really come in handy next year in this way. BlI.I. Doty—BB Junior End Bill was a fast charging end who had a remarkable abilty of breaking up opponent’s plays before they got started. He could catch passes with ease and should team with the backs next year for a fine passing combination.

He shined on defense and could be depended on to open a hole anytime. WALLY Rose—BBB Senior Guard Wally was one of the main cogs in the fine line this year. One could always depend on him no matter how rough the game. The guard position was always taken care of. Wally proved he liked the game by his all-around play. Dick Martin—B Senior Center Dick had the fighting spirit and pep that it took to make a good football player. His specialty was defensive tackling. Many were the times that Dick's tackle stopped the opponent from making a lot of yardage. Dick was a good snapper-back who made few bad passes.

B. in a long time and by next year he will really go places.

When in the game he always gave a good account of himself. Duane Cox—B Senior Back Duane made his debut at B.B.H.S. in his Senior year. He was a fast running back that was hard to stop, and once he got in the clear it usually meant a score. Duane made All-State honorable mention this year, a position well deserved. Loren Haverland—BB Senior Guard Loren was a hard driving guard who never gave up. He was always in the fighting and especially when the going was toughest. His specialty was opening up holes in the line. This he accomplished very easily. David Crouch—BBB Senior Tackle Rugged and aggressive. “Mike” was the stalwart of the line. Opponents’ backfields found they were hitting a stone wall when they ran into Mike’s territory.

Summary of Football Season F ifty-three men started the year under Coach Tom Journey with the opening of the ’44 football season. It was a successful season with seven wins, one tie. and one loss for the Indians. Arcadia was the first game of the season and was held on the Indians’ home ground. Many new men experienced the dust and grime of gridiron battle, but the team was below par. The final whistle blew cn a tied score of 0-0. After a week s hard practice, the Indians clashed with the Sargent Bulldogs” on their home field again. I he Indians broke loose at the start of the game and proceeded to scalp their opponents with a score of 2-7. I he following Friday afternoon they backed out the old bus. dusted it off. and prepared to fill it with Indians for a trip to Ravenna. It was their first game away from home and the boys were determined to win it. Holding Ravenna scoreless, the final score was 20-0. Cozad was the next team to invade the Indian’s home camp. The “Haymakers” finished on the short end of a 26-0 score. Broken Bow suffered their first defeat when they met Ord at Ord. The “Chanticleers” were leading 12-0 with only a few minutes left when Cox. playing sleeper, caught a pass and went over for a touchdown. 1 2-6. final score. Returning to the home field the Indians defeated Loup Citv. 3T- 1 4. and then traveled to Callaway for a victory of 20-0. Gothenburg proved a tough hard game, but the Indians came out leading. 1 2-6.

His under the basket work and defensive play were standout features of a boy who would rather see someone score the points than lose the game. Charles Coble—B Senior Guard Charlie was a fine dribbler and very good at working the ball in for a score. His shooting was something of the spectacular. Our only regret is that he had to leave for the armed forces before the season ended. Wally Rose—B Senior Forward Wally was small but active. He was always on the go and specialized at shooting on the move. He proved his worth as a defensive man and made up for his lack of size with plenty of life and spirit. Don LEFLER—B Junior Center Don was a specialist on turn shots. An exceptional basket eye was one of his treasured gifts. Once he got range of the basket he was a dangerous man. Frank Wooters—B Junior Center “Curly” was one of the best scorers on the team. His contribution of 1 1 8 points so far this season came in handy. He was hard to guard and his versatile ability was something at which to marvel. Gerald Stinehagen—B Junior Forward 'Bid was a smart ball handler and a good shot. His defensive play was a standout feature of a natural ball player. “Bid was a hard fighting guard whose under the basket work was a big factor in the success of the season. Bill Doty—B Junior Forward Bill was a smooth player who never got rattled. He was a hard man to guard on his dribble in shots and faked the opponents out of position, enabling him to score or set up a fellow player for a score. David Crouch—B Senior Guard “Mike” was tall and thus a great help under the basket and in taking rebounds. He was a long shot artist from “way back” and often bewildered his opponents with his uncanny ability to score on impossible shots. DUANE COX—Senior Forward Duane was a fast breaking forward who could always cash in on the score column when the points were needed most. Duane was a good defensive man and it wasn't often that his man could break away from him and score. JACK Doty—B Senior Guard Jack was a fast guard who could score from close in or from way out. He broke for the basket nicely and fooled the opposing defense to score on set shots or tip-ins. His all around play could be used next year. BASKETBALL SQUAD PICTURE Rack rou!—Don Lefler.

The 194 5 Warrior 35 Summary of the Basketball Season With nine lettermen and a host of promising material reporting for the first practice, prospects for the season looked bright. The Indians had only two weeks' practice when they traveled to the Callaway court for their first game. Callaway was right at home and took an easy 22-37 victory. The team then changed their tactics and during the Christmas holidays took a 25-24 victory from a highly favored Burwell team. This started a winning spree that lasted until Ord moved into the Indian camp. Sargent, Ansley, and Gothenburg all fell before the fast improving Red and White. Then came the game of the year with the Chanticleers of Ord. Ord led the Class B parade and were highly favored to drop the Indians with ease. The game was close all the way with Ord coming from behind in the last three minutes to take a 21-19 decision. The team came back strong, however, and won five games in a row. Arnold. Ravenna, Comstock and Arcadia were all easv marks for the Indians. In the first round of the Three Valleys Tournament. Loup City gave unexpected trouble to the Indians but had to take a 24-27 defeat. The warriors then met the fast Ord five in the semi-finals. Ord was favored to win the tournament but the boys were not content with letting them walk away with it. Again the Indians led the Chanticleers for three and a half periods, at one time enjoying a nine-point lead. But Ord came back strong in the last quarter to win by the close score of 24-20. In the third play-off Arcadia was no match for the host team and fell. 35-21. All competition in the county tournament came in the finals when Sargent crowded the Indians all the way but dropped out in the last half to lose. 27-30. In the previous rounds the Indians had easily defeated Comstock and Ansley. Two and possibly more games remain on the Indian schedule at the time this goes to press. The district tournament at Lexington and a home game with Kearney are in the offing. All other games on the schedule are tentative. This brings to a close one of the most successful seasons in recent cage history at Broken Bow.

THE INDIAN The “Indian” experienced a Renaissance movement in Broken Bow High School's publications during the school year. 1944-1945. as it changed from a mimeographed to a printed paper. It aims to inspire more and better writing among the student body. It is published every month during the school year, is supported by the student body as it contains no advertisements, and enjoys a wide circulation. Exchanges are made with neighboring schools and copies are sent to our alumni in the service. This year the “Indian'' became a member of the National Scholastic Press Association, and of Quill and Scroll. The 104 5 Warrior 45 F. F. A. The Future Farmers of America were organized and held their first national meeting in November. 1928. The Broken Bow F.F.A. emblem is made up of five symbols—the owl, the plow, the rising sun. within the cross section of an ear of corn, which is surmounted by the American Eagle. Upon the face of the emblem appears also the words, “Vocational Agriculture,” and the letters, “F.F.A.” The owl is symbolic of wisdom and knowledge; the plow is the symbol of labor and tillage of the soil: the rising sun is emblematic of progress and the new day that will dawn when all farmers are the product of vocational agricultural schools and have learned to cooperate; the cross section of an ear of corn is indicative of the national scope of the organization, as is also the American Eagle. The organization extends from Washington to Puerto Rico and from Maine to Hawaii. There are four degrees through which a Vocational Agriculture student may be raised: namely, 1. Green Hand—The boy must be regularly enrolled in Vocational Agriculture and have facilities for carrying a farming project. 2. Future Farmer—The candidate must have completed at least one year of Vocational Agriculture, including a satisfactory program of supervised farming and one year's membership in the F.F.A.. plus having earned from any investment in farming the sum of $25.00. The State Farmer degree requirements are more rigid and the American Farmer degree is open only to those boys who have during their High School Vocational Agriculture course established themselves in farming, and shown marked qualities of leadership.
