CLASS HISTOR Y Reflections of the past. . . . When we. the senior class, reflect back on our 13 years together, we often think of that September morning in 1964 when our experience that would last so many years began. I hose 25 students who gathered to share a part of their lives together were Steve Adkisson. Donna Beck. Debbie Booth. Ric Boroviak. Debbie Branting. Dan»'I Brown. Tad Ditimer. Susctte Grause. Alice Huebner, Deb Janulewicz. Cameron Kohl. Donald Kula. Mary Kuhn. Reggie Kuhn. Rex Lamb. Karen Mace. Sandy Mace. Jody Peterson. Scott Pickrel. Vickie Reisener. Paul Stanczyk. Cindy Starostka. Daryl Van Pelt. Ricky Waike, and Neal Wcmhoff. Our first teacher was Mrs. Kivett. That year we lost Daryl Brown and Neal Wcmhoff. Reflecting back to first grade, we had Mrs. Baird for our leader. How well we remember playing Candyland before school and feeding the goldfish everyday. We lost Vickie Reisener. Paul Stanczyk, Karen Mace, and Steve Adkisson during the year. We gained Mark Auailar Brad Kohl, and Ruby Earl. Second grade brings back memories of the Nebraska Centennial, paper mache giraffes, and being king and queen for a day. That year we also gave a play on nutrition for the whole school. Mrs. Moore taught us. and we learned and did many interesting things. We gained Robert Cerney and Bob Armstead, and lost Ruby Earl and Mark Augilar that year. Third grade sped by with Mrs. Zlomke as our teacher. This year we became very good at square dancing and doing the “Hokcy Pokey”. We gained Anna Dubas, Tony Peterson, and Ric Ferguson. The experience of fourth grade and Miss McCarty is one we will long remember. The class gained Robert Reiken. and lost Donna Beck, Tad Dittmer. Brad ohl, and Robert Cerney that year. Hobby shows and bulletin boards are many of the things that we remember of Miss Zoucha’s fifth grade room. We lost Donald Kula that year. Putting jigsaw puzzles together and moving into the fifth grade room on cold winter days are some of the many things that we remember of sixth grade. Miss Test was our teacher that year. Ricky Watke left that year. With the dawn of seventh grade, our experiences and memories broadened with each day. Mr. Kruger guided us most of the year. We elected our first class officers. They were: President, Rex Lamb; Vice President. Daryl Van Pelt; Secretary-Treasurer. Robert Reiken; and Student Council, Reggie Kuhn. We lost Debbie Booth and gained Rose Church. Eighth grade brought new challenges, a new administration, and a new- addition to the school. Our officers were: President. Mary Kuhn; Vice President. Jody Peterson; Secretary-Treasurer. Rex Lamb; and Student Council. Deb Janulewicz and Bob Armstead. Our sponsors were Miss Davis and Mr. Sampson. We traveled to the Josyln Museum in Omaha that year. On May 21. 1973. the class of 77 left grade school and graduated into the whole new world of high school. In our freshman year we gained LeAnne Beck. Mike Richards, Tim Dubas. and Neal Wemhoff. This year brings back memories of tvping contracts and our first football practice, but somehow we made it through that first year of high school. Our officers were: President. Rex Lamb; Vice-President. Jody Peterson; Secretary-Treasurer. Reggie Kuhn; and Student Council. Susette Grause and Daryl Van Pelt. Our sponsors were Miss Cannon and Mr. Manstedt. Our officers in tenth grade were: President. Mike Richards; Vice President. Daryl Van Pelt; Secretary-Treasurer. Deb Branting; and Student Council. Rex Lamb and Sandy Mace. Our experiences that year ranged from dissecting pigs to getting our drivers licenses. We gained Brad Kohl and lost Mary Kuhn. Bob Armstead, and Alice Huebner. Our sponsors were again Miss Cannon and Mr. Manstedt. Eleventh grade brings back many reflections for all of us. In the early fall w'e received our class rings, which we were very proud of. Our elected officers that year were: President. Reggie Kuhn; Vice President. Jody Peterson; Secretary-Treasurer. Susette Grause; and Student Council. Rex Lamb and Deb Branting. Our sponsors were Mrs. Vyhlidal and Mr. Hauschild. Some of the highlights of our year included having the best decorated hall at Homecoming and our soup supper. On April 29. 1976. we honored the class of 76 with a p'rom at the school gym. Our theme was I he Spirit of 76 .We gained Linda Blowey and lost Sandy Mace and Jody Peterson. That year we chose our class motto. We wralk into the future as individuals . Our class flower was the white rose, and our colors were blue and gold. In our senior year, we elected the following officers: President. Deb Branting; Vice President. Reggie Kuhn; Secretary-Treasurer. Rex Lamb, and Student Council, Susette Grause and Mike Richards. We lost Linda Blowey and were sad to see Deb Branting leave us in the middle of the year. Our sponsors during this final year were Mrs. Vyhlidal and Mr. Pearson. In the spring of the year, the class of ’78 honored us with a prom entitled the “Times of our Lives”. Now' our reflection is over, and we must face the future. On May 15. 1977, we the senior class of 1977 will leave our memories and friends behind to begin a new adventure for ourselves. We w ill always remember our time here though, and every once in awhile we will recall with fondness Clarks High School.

The class of 1977 had a busy year full of excitement. The nine months went faster than anyone had expected. Our officers for the year were: President. Deb Branting; Vice- President. Reggie Kuhn; and Secretary-Treasurer. Rex Lamb. Our sponsors were Mrs. Vyhlidal and Mr. Pearson. Along with the school work and the school activities that never seemed to end. we also had to make many decisions. Many of us were busy looking at college bulletins and visiting college campuses to see where we might want to go, or what we might want to do when we graduated. Our senior year was also a year of fun and good times. Few of us will forget the dances and parties that we went to during the year. Wrapping all this work, think- ing. and fun into nine months made for a year that we will al- ways remember. 9

CLASS PROPHECY Reflections of the future.. .. Before the class of ’77, Leaves our halls, and goes to heaven. We’ll tell you what their futures will be. What happens to them, you soon will see. LeAnne Beck who was once so shy. Cannot be controlled by just one guy. She’s a go-go dancer, dressed in flame red. Her talent and smile has turned many a head. Rick Boro via k just loved to farm. His crops or animals never came to harm. He brought a wife to the farm to reside. And she lovingly stays right by his side. Anna Dubas is now a respected physician. In a New York hospital she holds a high position. She met a man and made him her life. We hear he thinks she’s “Miss Perfect Wife.” President of the bank in the town of Monroe. Tim Dubas has had a hard row to hoe. From lending farmers money, his hair has turned gray. But his sweet wife and kids kind of smooth the way. Remember the girls of whom Ric Ferguson spoke. He dated them all with his master-stroke. When he’s not dating, he farms with great ease. As of yet. he has no wife to please. Here comes Susette Grause, our Homecoming Queen. She now has an R.N. cap to be seen. She’s still busy, as busy can be. For now she’s studying for a MRS. degree. The 3-D misses Deb Janulewicz we hear. She left on a journey, both far and near. Returning with a husband, she came back to town. He treats her like a queen, so she’s never down. Brad Kohl now owns a large pigeon ranch. His wife only sees him when she gets a chance. He spends lots of time in training those birds. But his pal, “The Fonz”. thinks they all arc nerds. The motorcycle fiend, ole’ Cameron Kohl. At high speed took a dangerous roll. While in the hospital, he met a nurse. And she gave him the wedding vows to rehearse. Reginald Kuhn lay claim to fame. On voters’ ballots, we see his name. He served four terms on the Senate. And in the White House, he’ll be a tenant. Big Business Tycoons make up quite a list. But Rex Lamb in this field is not to be missed. Twenty playgirls wait on him night and day. If you like wild parties, stop by his way. A trapper is what Tony Peterson has been. His house consists of an old bear’s den. If you want to rough it, go visit Pete. The excitement you’ll find just can’t be beat. Scott “Dudley” Pickrel was known for his speed. In very many races, he took the lead. He travels around in an oversized camper. And in each of them, there are women to pamper. Seen around in his big cowboy hat. Was Mike “Festus” Richards. Remember that? He lives in the mountains of old Montana. And does ads for Skoal in a red bandana. Robert Ricken. sometimes just called Bob. Never had to apply for a full-time job. Women will pay him for his attention. His main concern is marriage prevention. Cindy Starostka is head nurse on her floor. For many people, she has opened the door. She helps the doctors with a loyal hand. Her name is known throughout the land. In the dirt business. Daryl VanPelt thrived. To please his wife. Julie, he strived. They have ten kids to help ease the load. With a family like that, it’s as easier road. Remember Neal Wemhoff who always had a smile? Well, we haven’t seen one in quite awhile. He’s now the sheriff of quite a large place. And he’s the toughest guy in the human race. Now every ten years we can all get together. And sec if any of us have turned out for the better. We hope that you’ll go thru life with a smile. And remember CHS just once in aw hile. II
