It's Dick’s.” Dear WHY not somebody else? I suppose I should just be happy my brother is alive, but what do you feel like when you know he may not be there the next minute? I'vf heard a lot about those telegrarfts which say “We regret to inform you ...” Who regrets, except me and my family? To everyone else he's just a number. I wish life had no sorrows whatsoever, but then, it's the people who overcome hardships that build the founda ’ tion of life. Even though I knovy this, WHY do I have to contend with all the misery other people have created? 1M My stomach is just dying after laughing so hard in English class first period. Did you hear what Gonlinger said about the modern tragedy”? I about fell out of my chair when he said that a good example would be ... . That class has its ups and downs, but what doesn’t? WHY? It’s got to be the interaction of the people in Were you at the basketball game in Hastings when we beat 74-73 in the overtime? I could hardly even yell. WHY? I was super excited! That’s got to rate right up there with the first swimming victory and the time we defeated Fremont in wrestling. anything that makes it tick. Sometimes I get upset with the things people say about me. At the same time I also know that all the great experiences I’ve known this year make me want to scream with pride and joy. WHY? I realize that words will fade while joys will be everlasting memories. Why do I do things I know are wrong even before I do them? Maybe it’s because I'm trying to prove that I am somebody or that I can do just as much as the next guy. I really try to do my best, but that doesn't always mean the result is good. WHY does education effect me? When I look at dropouts. I sense that I could be one whose difficulties are mounting one upon another. Thus. I become more determined in obtaining an education. WHY? Education helps alleviate some of these problems. 4 '.ta But you know, when I come home from school I feel like I’ve really accomplished something. The day doesn’t seem wasted. WHY? School has given me a chance to say what I think, and learn a bit more about life. I used to think math was hopeless and translating no better. But the value isn’t just knowing the formulas or looking up foreign words in a dictionary; rather it’s the discovery and application of ideas that counts! By employing that education, everything I read and do has a function. WHY? It expands my understanding and adds purpose to my life. This year has gone so fast -yet so slow. WHY? I guess it’s ju; something else I really don't ua derstand. Before I get up in the morning I pause to think about all the things that I will have to do! during the day. Who am I to con-1 tact, what meeting am I to attend,! should I tell my teacher that ll didn’t have time to read twenty! pages in the book? (I know we ll g have a quiz because I didn’t read! the assignment!) WHY do I ignore all the activity going on about me — not just in school, but with everything that surrounds me? Maybe that's what keeps bogging me down. WHY? Could it be that I’m not concerned” about things which are really determining my life? Or is it that I'm just not sure yet who I am? You know, when I signed my name to that letter the Student Council sent to Viet Nam to ask for fair treatment of our POW's, I felt like crying. WHY? For once I thought about somebody else instead of good 'ole me. girl from Ecuador. I felt GREAT! WHY? For once I had really done something that wasn't selfish. After thinking it over, I guess that if I was in their situation I’d appreciate a helping hand, too. Maybe I'm not totally selfish; WHY? I'm concerned. 7 I guess you know I feel like two cents every time I have to ask Mom and Dad for money. I had a job, but it just didn't give me enough time to get lessons, activities, and everything else done. WHY are there so many responsibilities? For just one day I'd like to do exactly what I want. WHY did I ever think that when I graduated I would be completely independent? I guess everyone depends on someone or something. Life is a wheel: if any of the spokes break, the entire wheel is weakened. When the clock shows 3:20 I feel like my ropes have been cut and I’m no longer a puppet . I walk out to my car and feel like I’m an adult: Somebody! I know that I could have skipped out of school and driven to Lincoln for kicks, but I didn’t. WHY? Maybe I’m learning to coordinate my responsibilities and privileges. This year has ended and now I’m confident that I can take care of my obligations. WHY? I’ve taken another step toward independence. . Everyone keeps talking about failure. WHY? Don’t they think I realize I'm not the best? I've never professed to be! I know that failure is a jail. WHY? What is a jail? It’s not just bars and walls, but it represents the trials I've encountered. Everything seems confusing to me, but I keep searching for the truth. WHY? I want to reach my full potentiality. I have failed some people who mean a lot to me, but please, Lord, don’t let me fail you! WHY must I succeed? I have wondered many times what would happen to me if I didn't make it. Then, everything seemed to go wrong when I carried that attitude. WHY? Maybe I was making that idea a reality. To succeed in your vocation and for those who look up to you is self-gratifying. Upon concluding another year of my education, I’ve learned that no one else will make me a success. WHY? I must do it myself.

Led by seniors Bill Fulton and Jon Abegglen with strong support from Tom McCarthy. Dick Hoth. Jon Cole. Jim Price and Howard Krebs, the harriers reached an 8-7 overall meet record. The only dual-triangular loss the team suffered was at the Columbus-Norfolk-Fremont triangular. Although Columbus fell short of points to capture the triangular, the point total was sufficient to place both duals in the harriers' hands. Competing on a rougher course this year, the cross-country team switched the site of home meets from the golf course to the Immanuel Lutheran Church Camp. 15 Letterman Brad Nelson Letterman Glen Schrieber Letterman Terry Robinson i. ’ Letterman Greg Gersib Letterman Randy DeFreece Letterman Paul Potter Tennis Schedule Columbus-York Columbus-Grand Island Fremont-Invitational Columbus-Norfolk Columbus-Millard Columbus-Fremont Apollo Conference Columbus-Fremont BigTen State Letterman Russ Glaser Letterman Keith Davy 16 Coach Cowgill demonstrated proper procedures to Randy DeFreece.

Neil Klutman, and Tom Zimmerman, Under the experienced coaching of Jed Rood, the CHS football team got off to a strong start defeating the first three comers, Omaha Bryan, Beatrice, and Kearney. After numerous injuries the Roodmen faltered, being defeated at Grand Island in the final seconds. Finding recovery slow, the pigskinners fought hard but to no avail. Losing or tieing the next four games, the Discoverers battled on but with insufficient point totals to win. The Discoverers hung in there after a close game with Grand Island and were denied victory against Fremont by a desperation goal line stand at the close of the game. Recovering in time for the final game the Discoverers displayed the style shown earlier in the year, whipping Papillion 47-0 and eveningtheir record at 4-4-1. Placing emphasis on the individual performances were the four winners of the All-East Big Ten Conference. Receiving the awards were seniors Tom Zimmerman, defensive back, and Neil Klutman, offensive end; juniors Brian Gaver, defensive tackle and Dean Kobza. linebacker. Also on the ballot but not receiving the award were juniors Tom Heiser and Mike Rayman.

The vocal music department, in a continual effort to be the best possible, engaged in numerous musical activities through the year. To increase the ability of the department each group practiced at every opportunity before, duringand after school. The choir began the year by journeying to Fremont for the annual Tri-City Choral Clinic. The events included practices with the choirs from Norfolk and Fremont. a mixer, and an evening presentation by all three choirs. Eight members from the choir represented Columbus at the All-State Choral Clinic in Grand Island. These students were selected by audition for their vocal ability. The choir consisted of 450 voices selected from approximately 1,200 applicants. After numerous requests from the community the musical OKLAHOMA was presented by the concert choir. Also included in the vocal department's activities were the Christmas concert, spring concert and guest appearances for community organizations.

The setting of the musical was the western Indian country at the turn of the century. Curly and Laurey were in love, but were at first either aloof, hostile or uncertain of each other’s reaction. Since she was making no apparent headway with Curly. Laurey responded to the advances of Jud Fry, a lecherous fellow, by accepting an invitation for a “box- lunch party.” By outbidding Jud for Laurey's lunch box, which entitled him to share it with her. Curly openly demonstrated his true feelings for the girl. The love affair then unfolded quickly. At their wedding, Jud appeared and attacked Curly with a knife. In the ensuing brawl Jud fell on his own blade and was killed. Rather than take Curly to prison on his wedding night, Judge Carnes arranged a trial then and there, in which Curly was found innocent. Curly and Laurey then went off for their honeymoon in a land soon to be known as Oklahoma. 57 Lead roles were held by Kathy Cumming (Laurey) and Gary Abel (Curly). CONCERT BAND — FRONT ROW: R. Evans.

With memories of the summer’s exciting trip to Winnepeg, Canada, the Columbus High School band began another year. Presented to the band early in fall for their outstanding representation in Canada was the official Canadian flag and Manitoba’s Centennial license plate. The fall marching season was highlighted at Kearney Band day. October 24. The band won the Class A first place trophy. As guests of Kearney College, the band viewed the Kearney-Wayne football game and took part in halftime entertainment with the other fifty bands present. Platte College hosted the District Class A music contest where CHS bandsmen took an active part in the competition. Also included in the band’s schedule were half-time entertainment at home football games, Mid-East band festival in Lincoln, the spring concert and Band-o-rama.

AFS Club Added to Promote Good Will An American Field Service club was initiated this year at CHS primarily for high school students. This organization was a branch of the community chapter consisting of adults, former AFSers. and past host families. The purposes and goals of the new organization were to promote international co-operation through the current and returnee exchange students, and to promote citizenship in school, community, state and country. Further aims of the club were to initiate the new exchange student at the beginning of the year, exposing him or her to the school and community environment and encouraging and promoting their participation. They also secured funds for financial assistance to be given to local AFS students. The sponsers included Mrs. Jim Hellbusch, Miss Sandy Sypherd and Rev. Russell Croker, who was also the president of the adult chapter. Members attended an organizational meeting to determine the club's goals. Arriving in Maitland. South Australia, a Welcome-Dance was sponsored to acquaint the Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Francis served as town with Loma Baxa. the second exchange student to that community. Loma's host AFS parents. Walk Together, Talk Together In June, 1970, I departed for Maitland, Australia, as part of American Field Service Summer Americans Abroad Program. My host family and many townspeople met me at the airport, surprising me with a real Aussie” welcome. Staying with my host parents, Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Francis, my brother and three sisters, I established myself and presented various programs about Nebraska Initially I didn’t think my host family would be like my own, but families in other countries have the same problems to contend with as we do. I attended the modern Maitland Area School which consisted of both primary and secondary levels. Student schedules dif fered daily, unlike thoseat CHS. A student might have a class three times a day alternating periods, thus adding variety to the curriculum. No extra-curricular activities are found in Australian schools other than choir and sports. My classmates separated work from play both in the home and school. An AFS counselor in Sydney stated. When we work, we work; when we play, we play.” My experience as an exchange student has caused me to be what may seem idealistic. I have gained faith in mankind and now believe that man CAN find peace after he has first established peace within himself. The motto of AFS interprets for me what I feel we must do to obtain this goal: “Walk together, Talk together; 0 ye peoples of the Earth. Then and only then shall ye have PEACE.” Loma In August Loma Baxa departed for the U S A. after a summer in Australia. 64 Rocio Guerrero quickly adapted to her new home with the assistance of Mr. Carter, Chris.

Box 9: Columbus, Nebraska 68601 This address was my first information from AFS after my acceptance of the American Field Service scholarship. Immediately I tried to figure out what kind of state I was being sent to. How are the people going to accept me? How do the teenagers act there? Will my personality fit their environment? How can I thank all of you for your help before I enter into the serious world of greater responsi-bilities and major decisions? Sometimes I felt disappointed for my troubles in your language. At the same time I'm sure I'll never change all the happy moments I lived with you.

I'll cooperate closely with the AFS chapter in Ecuador to help my people find the truth of another country's life, feelings and ideas. Thanks so much. CHS, for offering me all your help, for giving me so much happiness. I'll never forget this small city which seems to have printed on each door a great sign saying “welcome”, where the school has a great maroon and white sign saying We love you, where I feel like I’ve lived forever. AFS is an organization that unites the world with unbreakable strings of love and peace. Thanks. CHS, for your support, spirit and love. Love. Chio Booster Club Reorganized Constitution Booster Club underwent a variety of changes this year. Work during the summer resulted in the club's new guidelines under the guidance of the new sponsor, Mrs. Julia Hild. A new squad of sophomore cheerleaders was added to encourage attendance at minor sports activities. The new system modified many of the elected members' duties. Officers and Maties purchased new uniforms this year. Merits could be accumulated by attending out-of-town varsity games, junior varsity games and minor sports meets. Members also gained merits by making posters, locker decorations and decorating the commons and bulletin board. To receive a chevron, girls must have obtained one thousand merits. If five hundred additional merits were gathered, a Booster Club member could secure a gold bar. Pep club assumed the responsibility of preparing for various Homecoming activities. A breakfast for candidates initiated the day by discussing that nights’ coronation. That evening during the halftime ceremonies the king and queen were crowned and three prize-winning floats were displayed. The dance proved rewarding as well as enjoyable for the club by it being able to make the club since a profit was earned through the admission prices. The club raised money by selling paper forget-me-nots for the Disabled American Veterans and also Nebraska calendar planning books. Members also sponsored the annual chile feed with the Norfolk booster club. Jan Blatchford and Debbie Jones decorated lockers to encourage athletes. 66 Despite the cold weather during football games, spirited Booster Club members supported their team. Judy Ernst and Jolene Hellbusch hung creative posters in the halls.

Thespians and drama club combined this year under a new sponsor, Miss Sonja Webster. The executive board consisted of Cindy Rodgers, president; Mary Ellen Farnham, treasurer; and Carolyn Meyer, secretary. The group incorporated several field trips to Nebraska Weslyan University and the University of Nebraska to observe the production of college plays. This helped advance the group through observation of the production of a play and aided in the setting of goals for their own productions. The goals of Thespians and the drama club included betterment of the dramatic program of our school, the best possible productions and to develop the dramatic abilities in all persons involved. Thespians is an honorary organization concerned with the betterment of its members. Additional projects included speech and dramatic contests, debate tournaments, individual events, make-up demonstrations and creation of better public relations. 74 Kevin Christensen.

DECA members sold raffle tickets for a cassette tape player with a FM AM radio as a money-making project in the fall of the year. The annual spring employer-employee banquet was held to show gratitude to the businessmen associated with the marketing program. Jennifer Schwank found work to be very enjoyable as a clerk in a Columbus store. Tom Meays showed enthusiasm for his job at a local store. 76 The student teachers answered questions asked by FTA members concerning the educational field. As one of their projects FTA members made favors to welcome the teachers at the beginning of the year. FTA Encouraged Teachers of Tomorrow Gaining further insight into the teaching profession and the different types of teaching opportunities available was the major purpose of the FTA this year. Members of this organization achieved this goal in various manners as they made welcome-back favors for the teachers, aided the school nurse in physical check-ups, visited Educational Service Unit 7, toured Platte College and tutored elementary pupils. Senior girls visited the University of Nebraska and observed elementary and junior high teachers in Columbus schools. Linda Schaufelburger served as president of the organization with Melanie Apthorpe, vice president; Carolyn Meyer, treasurer; Becca Wright, secretary; Chris Julio, parliamentarian and historian; and Mr. Jeffers, sponsor.

Annual Staff Combined Efforts for Yearbook Organization editors Jane Slonecker and Roxanne Krumland look for new ideas for their section. Annual staff members this past year had many goals. These included teaching the members the basic skills in publishing an annual such as writing copy, writing captions, headlines, photography, page layouts, and meeting deadlines. In addition the students learned to shoulder responsibility, to work as a team and to publish an annual that betters the public relation media for the school. Four members attended a convention in Fremont and eight staff members attended the Nebraska High School Press Association Convention in Lincoln. At these conventions the students learned latest techniques to produce an improved yearbook through creative layouts, current styles of type and picture ideas. The assistant staff members traveled to Topeka, Kansas, for a tour of the American Yearbook Company in the spring. During this time they were given helpful suggestions and advice to improve next year’s annual. 78 Business manager Tim Hall and department editor Tammy Conyers checked sales record for the yearbook.

THE DISCOVERER staff scanned a new addition of the newspaper after completion. The combined classes of journalism and newspaper aimed to better their journalistic techniques including the ability to write news and feature stories, editorials, proof read copy, and plan general layout. In a class of twenty-four, seven second-year students were primarily concerned with the editing of THE DISCOVERER, The other seventeen class members worked as apprentices in writing articles and learning basic skills. Graded upon their ability in learning these skills, journalism students competed for positions on next year's staff. To finance THE DISCOVERER, the staff sold advertisements to Columbus cooperations. THE DISCOVERER was student-published, featuring current events within the school. The staff’s goal was to make all twleve issues well written and accepted.

Chio Guerrero and Gary Abel reviewed facts brought up at a Council meeting. Student Council — One of Top Five in State The 1970-71 Student Council, consisting of eight representatives from each class, adequately fulfilled its designated purposes. These goals, as set up by the council in the constitution, were to sponsor school activities, uphold standards of Columbus High, promote good citizenship, raise levels of scholastic and recreational achievements, and promote co-operation between faculty, administration and student body. Proof of the council's ability was exemplified in obtaining an outstanding council award at the State Student Council Convention, this fall. This covet- ed honor was awarded to only five councils out of over one-hundred eligible Nebraska schools. The representatives also received first place honors for their homecoming float. Under the efficient leadership of president, Scott Oppliger, the council discussed numerous issues at their Wednesday meetings, planned money-making projects, and volunteered support. Accomplishments included carry-over projects such as obtaining chairs and tables for the commons, revising the dress-code, and continuing implementation of the honor roll. Fund raising projects included a filly football game, the sale of Christmas tree bulbs, Snowball, Sweetheart, and Twirp dances, along with the popular pop machines, and the student council stand. The student council was divided into committees, and several members served as committee chairmen. The officers were: Chris Carter, vice president: Neil Klutman, treasurer; Tim Siemek, secretary. Three of the representatives, and two officers attended a state workshop this summer in Lincoln and the State Convention in South Sioux City in November. 82 Student Council members rehearsed their parts before the Veterans Day Program.

During the weekly Thursday morning meetings the FCA discovered fellowship in Christ’s love through singing, eating, discussions, and Bible scripture memory. To enable selected members to go to summer camp the FCA sponsored fund-raising candy sales, a pancake feed, and coat and hat check stands at home basketball games. 84 Co-sponsor Mr. Dennis Butt divided the An integral segment of the meetings involved scripture study to reinforce the fellowship FCA members into discussion groups. among the athletes. 85 For Mindy Sunday, swimming proved to OFFICERS AND SPONSORS — Mrs. Dorothy Courtier, sponsor: Sue Pohl. president: Sue be relaxing as well as good exercise.

The Girls Athletic Association changed from simply an organization to active intramural sports competition. The GAA met every Monday night for activities such as archery. basketball, volleyball, soft-ball, badminton, ping pong, and gymnastics. The first Monday of each month was a required business meeting where CHS coaches gave individual talks on a specific sport. On Tuesday nights synchronized swimming met for all interested GAA members. Merits were received by participating in numerous activities of the organization. Special highlights of the year were a bike-hike and an overnight camp-out for all members. 86 As a participant in GAA.

Speech Class Produced Holiday Assembly This past year the speech department’s main goal was to learn the process of better communication. The beginning speech class activities included group discussions and improvisations which helped the students become less afraid to talk in front of their peers. This type of learning also enabled the students to become better acquainted. A major project of the section included a presentation of an allschool convocation based on the Christmas spirit. The course incorporated tapes and video tapes to help in organizing speeches. Another segment of the speech department’s plans involved an advanced speech class. In this course the students primarily learned about radio and TV. To be eligible the students had to have either a debate or a speech class beforehand. Included in the program were parliamentary procedures, oral interpretations and contest work. In coming years the speech department would like to expand with three different sections: beginning, intermediate and advanced classes. 102 Joyce Magnuson gained poise and self-confidence while giving a speech.

This is shown through the concern of the students in this department. This year the Spanish classes adopted” a seven-year old girl. Graciela Calvache, from Guayaquil, Ecquador, under the Foster Parent Plan. She came from a very under-pri iledged area of the country. The students involved in this project paid $16.00 monthly to pay for all of Gracie-la’s dental, medical, educational and clothing needs. Chio Guerrero, this year's A.F.S. student from Ecquador, provided another example of how the language department built on their relationships with other parts of the world. During the year she illustrated talks about her homeland through slide presentations. She also tutored the fourth-year Spanish class. Mr. Splittgerber, the German instructor, was aided by Mrs. Gerber, a native of Germany. During the year she graded papers and told the various German sections about her country to enable them to get a clearer idea of what Germany was really like. These discussions helped the students to better understand the language. In French the seniors utilized independent studies. After reading several contemporary novels, the students constructed projects concerning important concepts in the books. In relationship to their assignment in L’Estranger and to further interest in contemporary government, they invited Judge Thomas White to talk to the French sections concerning court procedures. 104 French II classes, taught by Mrs. Hoganson broke away from traditional grammer study to read French magazines as a means of practical application.

Film Appreciation Urged Visual Literacy Through monthly English department meetings and individual creativity, the English teachers strove to help students become more effective and efficient in English. Mr. Larry Anderson served as chairman of the department. At the beginning of the year students did not have personal copies of the material. However the previous system of allowing each student to have a copy of the material was reinstated. The Nebraska Curriculum of English formed the core of the CHS English program. Selected books were correlated with major themes, such as sin and loneliness. man and nature and revenge tragedy. Film appreciation classes formed innovations in the department. Since information could be received through films and magazines, the class projected the importance of visual literacy. Several sophomore and junior English classes utilized a mass media approach. Another course introduced into the English curriculum was a composition class. Open only to seniors, this course provided students with the opportunity to improve their expository writing skills. 106 English Resource provided material to coincide with classroom activities. Senior composition teacher Mr. Anderson explained to Jeff Haase the essentials for Mr. Schreiber's sophomore English class listened intently and took notes while he out-a well-written essay. lined the requirements for a well-written satire.

Social Studies Department Explained the Past The social studies department this year attempted to bring about, for the students, a better understanding of the world and its problems. In explaining his goals. Mr. Roy Jeffers, head of the department, used this example: Just as a defensive driver must look in his rear-view mirror, before passing another car, so must each of us know and understand past history and present problems to prepare for the future. Familiar social studies courses included world studies, modern problems, sociology, economics, and international relations. Special projects were also planned for some of the clases, including a field trip to Douglas and Loma-son and to the ghettos in Omaha. Junior students in the U.S. history classes participated in com-petetive learning situations such as court cases and quiz bowls. Students in this department were well prepared to look in their rear-view mirrors as they become future leaders. 108 To obtain better discussions. Mr. Becken-hauer utilized small groups. The social studies resource center permitted students to study independently, utilizing Erin Lovell made study time, more appeal-valuable books, magazines, and films for reference. ing through the use of visual aids. For A Better Understanding of the Future Ralph Merry studied the federal reserve system in senior economics in order to learn basics needed in everyday living. 109 Mr. Nitsch pointed out geometric basics during daily lectures. Following class discussion, sophomore Brian Tuma sought assistance in answering a practical application problem from geometry instructor Mr. Bower. Mathematical Concepts Applied to Daily The mathematics program generally worked towards one main goal; the application of mathematical concepts in everyday situations. In geometry, a college preporatory class generally for sophomores, the curriculum was based around construction of circles, triangles, and polygons. Also included in the course was the study of measurement conceived through logical afid deductive reasoning. The algebra II classes dealt with equations, polynomials, linear and non-linear relations.

With the class of 1971. the question WHY prevailed. It seemed like such an easy question but answers varied among different groups of students making an answer hard to find. The only right answer had to come from the individual himself, as his conscience, morals, beliefs, and state of mind directed. WHY high school? Is it just required by law or is it because it is necessary for a prosperous life? Was the everyday routine of teachers, assignments, and grades really helping us as individuals? Are the teachers just for the giving of assignments so we have something to do after school or are they there to assist us as young people with new ideas, goals, and beliefs in life? What about grades? Why do we put such a value on them? Are grades the only reason we do our assignments, or are they simply for the rating in the senior class? WHY? WHY the lack of spirit for CHS by the seniors of '71? After thirteen years of education have we lost all interest in school? Have our thoughts of being a senior been so disillusioned we can't cope with reality? Aren’t seniors as executives, cheerleaders, ma-ties, members of athletic teams, and students to be leaders in spirit? Senior spirit day was dead. WHY? WHY midterm graduation? Why the large number of 64 midterm graduates this year? Are they tired of school? Is earning money now necessary for them to continue their education in the future? Have we as a senior class let them down? For many, their senior year had numerous activities they didn’t want to miss, but have we tried to include everyone in these activities? Is it perhaps this lack of unity as a class that caused these students to graduate midterm? WHY? WHY baccalaureate and commencement exercises? We've reached a goal, but is that all? Is the student-oriented baccalaureate more relevant to us by using popular music and poems than by having religion as the main emphasis? Is commencement only for receiving a high school diploma as the symbol of the goal or is it for honoring both individuals and the class for their educational achievements? Why do we cry when it is all over? Is it the realization that our high school years have been completed or is it the parting of the class to face the future as individuals? WHY? The class of 1971 faced continual problems and decisions, but they also reached numerous goals. The question WHY will always prevail and can only be answered by the individual. As a senior class we must remember we're the class of '71; we’re the class that’s number one. As a result of being a member of the class of '71 we have become better prepared to answer the future whys we will face in life tomorrow. 144 Jon Abegglen Barbara Aerni Michael Aerni Susan Aerni Jennifer Allen Michalee Allen Steven Allen Randy Anderson Melanie Apthorpe Kimberly Ball Dave Carrol now had time of his own after a bad break in wrestling.

WHY? I realize that in gaining knowledge one uncovers facts in hopes of reaching a logical conclusion. I'm not saying that now I know all the answers to the world's problems but I feel I'm ready to cope with my own. I’ve gained not just the ability to drive a car. pass U S. history exams, or fill out information on college-entrance papers but I’ve also gained confidence in my parents, teachers, and most important myself. WHY? Everything they've pounded into me is at last falling into place. Have you ever worked a jig-saw puzzle, one with a hundred pieces that’s always missing two or three? I’ve been working on one for a number of years now. I guess you’d say it’s mine alone because I have been the puzzle. Being a CHS Discoverer has been unique because it is here that I have “discovered” myself: the student, the teacher, the follower, the leader. I have “discovered” those missing pieces. I feel great! WHY? I’ve joined the human race not 50%, 90% — or 99% but as an individual willing to give 100%!!! Senior Activities A Abegglen.
