Or prize for daily tasks, A smile, a word of greeting. All a friend would ask. Her loving hands prepared the food To give us strength and health. A friend like this Is worth more than the world And all its wealth. (Poem composed by Barb Baldwin) Mrs. Grace Whitefoot lived in Boelus, Nebraska. She was head cook in Boelus Public Schools for more than twenty years. When the three towns merged she was assigned head cook in Centura until the time of her death. When we asked Grace for a favor she was always willing to help. Her enthusiasm with any school activity displayed sincere school spirit. Grace put forth special effort to be hospitable for the District Conventions or any other groups who were to be entertained. Grace will always be remembered by her radiant smile and cheerful greeting. She had a busy schedule but site still had time to visit with anyone. Grace was a devoted and dedicated employee. Her memory will always be instilled in us 2 Seniors :K. V°«l S a XT . f: I? XJ • ; ' V .

The rules are set. However, if these rules need interpreta- tion, a visit with Mr. Lauritsen is easily scheduled. Mr. Neal Grubb has served four successful years as superintendent in the Centura Public School system. Mr. Grubb plans to retire at the end of this school term. He has given worthwhile suggestions to the Centura Public School system. His guidance has given Centura pos- itive steps in the right direction. Mr. Grubb is deserving of a well earned retirement from the educational service. We wish him many years of health and happiness in his choice of retirement. Mr. Glen Blake, elementary principal, is serving his first year with the Centura school system. He has the re- sponsibility of keeping the three schools united. Mr. Blake enjoys working with the younger generation. 12 FACULTY MR. LARRY HARNISCH Science MR. PAUL WILHELM Physics MR. ROBERT MEYER Science MR. LEROY BELL History MR. RUSSELL JOHANSEN History MR.

OFFICERS TREASURER VICE PRESIDENT PRESIDENT SECRETARY Pat Harder Laurel Roth Dixon Powers Judy Kalinowski Busy, active, and enthusiastic are just a few of the words to describe the 75-76 Student Coun- cil. We sponsored the annual homecoming fes- tivities. One of the highlights was the Junior O- lympics, which involved both teachers and stu- dents in some of the wildest sporting extravaganza imaginable. A dance culminated the weeks acti- vities. For the third consecutive year, Centura hosted District ff2 Fall Convention, the largest and most active in the state! There were 35 schools in at- tendance and nearly 400 students. Mr. Tom Camp of Lincoln was the keynote speaker. Cen- tura also had five members attending the state convention in York, with Laurel Roth as a candi- date for State Treasurer. In the spring, we attended the district con- vention hosted by Minden for the purpose of elect- ing new district officers. We had a candidate for each office, with Lee Purdy winning the race for secretary. Also in the spring, we hosted a dance with Whale providing the music. The 75-76 Student Council would like to wish the Best of Luck to the new 76-77 Council. CAIRO LUMBER COMPANY Cairo, Nebraska Phone 485-4671 29 NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY BACK ROW: S. Hulme, T. Roth, D.
