He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: He leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul: He leadeth me in the paths of Righteousness for His Name's sake.. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: For thou art with me; Thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. In lasting memory of Kent Sherwood, we the year- book staff, dedicate this 1966 Hurkaru. Kent, who was a student at CHS for three years, died July 31, 1965. His smile and pleasing person- ality will be greatly missed by those who knew him. Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: Thou anointest m.y head with oil: My cup runneth over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: And I will dwell in the House of the Lord for ever..... 2 SUPERINTENDENT BECOMES HEAD OF NEW JR. COLLEGE I wish to compliment the Hurkaru staff and sponsor for the excellent work done in publishing the 1965-66 yearbook. 1965-66 has been a most eventful year in our school system. Continued growth and enrichment of our educational pro- gram is evidenced by the expansion of the curriculum, additional staff mem- bers, enlarging of our school district, and the establishing of the Cloud County Community Junior College. In view of the many educational oppor- tunities now available in our community, I sincerely recommend to each student in the Concordia High School to consider very thoroughly these resources as the prepare for a vocational career. Congratulations and best wishes for the future. Harold M. Clark A. A.

Such challenges are extremely important in each high school students life in that they are non academic learning situations which are highly essential in achieving mature citizenship. In both academic and non- academic learning situations, students will begin to understand that the real aim of education is to stimulate and guide the self-development of each toward adulthood. Therefore, each student must begin to see himself with a high set of ideals and a humanitarian philosophy of life. Jack E. Scott ACE HARDWARE 5 MAX G. ANDERSON D. C BOARD OF EDUCATION The Concordia Board of Education, a much overlooked body, is vital to the growth and maintenance of the schools and the system's standards. All buying of property and all plans for building of additional facilities are overseen by the board. This year the Concordia school board has accomplished many things, such as promotional work, planning publicity and brochures, and making personal appearances before civic groups prior to the vote on the bond issue for a junior college in Concordia. They spent many hours and to these people we owe our appreciation. Mr. Charles Everitt Board President Larry Peck, Charles Everitt, Boyd Lewis, Bill Larson, Celeste McComas, Martha Fyfe, George Ganstrom, and Superintendent Harold Clark. 6 F.

I wasn't half as proud of you in some of our wins as I am of you tonight, said Coach Betts after the game with Beloit. The win from this game gave us second place in the N.C.K.L. Football has given more to the boys than just en- joyment of the game, it has given much more than that. In football, as any sport, the boys learn to work together. Without team work a football would be nothing--the same as life. Coach Betts has taught the boys everything they know about football. Without him and his enthusiastic interest in football, our team could not be as great as it is.

The 1965-66 basketball season started out with much promise, however as the season progressed the wins became fewer. Nevertheless, when it came time for tournaments the Panthers began to show a little spirit giving them a fairly good turnout. The B-team had a better record of wins than the A-team, lending hope for the future. The freshman team had still a better record than either the A-team or B-team. Many of the games of all three teams were excitingly close, therefore the fans never gave up hope.

Composed of 30 boys, the team met each night at the National Guard Armory under the in- struction and supervision of Coach Larry Hartshorn. Competing with schools known for their wrestling teams, the novice Panthers were able to win only one out of their five matches by winning over the Chapman Irish B team. Three members of the squad qualified for competition in the regional match. They were Greg Tracy, Dennis Burt, and Keith Sherwood. From this Keith was able to go on to State contest in Dodge City. Wrestling was an expense to the school, however in order to provide it for the interested students the school financed it. The interest was not only limited to the boys out, but included the student body and the community. Keith Sherwood wins at reginal and ventures on to the state tournament at Dodge City. There he was unable to place because of sudden illness. How- ever he did win the one match in which he wrestled.

Gratitude goes to the teachers who had classes interrupted for picture taking; to the administration and secretaries for their cooperation; to the student photographers for their extra hours beyond the call of duty; to the Switzer Studio for the many pictures; to the students and patrons of the Concordia High School for pur- chasing a Hurkaru; to the entire Hurkaru staff, especially the advisors and Mary Susan Mackinnon, who spent a lot of extra time on finances for the yearbook; and all the others who help- ed make the Hurkaru possible. Respectfully, Cheryl L. Mowery 99
