(fto k QM iM Uc Under the supervision of Robert Ashlock, the freshmen began the study of understanding life in to- day's complex society. Many aspects of our environ- ment, mental health, education, social problems, and getting along with the opposite sex, were discus- sed. Besides teaching Orientation, Mr. Ashlock also counseled students on their future educational possi- bilities. Each student participated in special testing sessions during his Freshman and Senior years to de- termine educational development, the changes in his ideals, interests, and personality traits. Students of EHS are fortunate in having a full slate of tests to guide them in subject placement. At the end of the 8th grade, En- trance Tests, are administered. They aid in high school sectioning of students and give teachers a better understanding of each fresh- man. These are comprised of Iowa Tests of Basic Skills, Algebra Aptitude Test, and Mental Ability Test. Freshmen take the. Differential Aptitude Kuder Preference Rec- ord-Vocational, and the Guilford-Zimmer- man Temperament Survey. As sophomores, students participate in tests of Educational Ability. Juniors get a prevue of college abil- ity when they take the optional Preliminary Scholastic Aptitude Test and the National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test. Robert Ashlock gives seniors an opportunity to take the three freshmen tests and the optional junior test, if they missed them earlier. During the senior year, most students also take the American College Test, which many colleges use for screening and sectioning classes. ROBERT ASHLOCK B.S. M.S. Orientation Counseling Qhuudpjd, omjAj giouf) fnojecfe Wibuukt, doMto The trades classes of EHS offer many students the chance to leave the normal academic atmosphere in favor of a more relaxed and less confining environ- ment. Within this department, building trades and metal working combine to teach students vocational abilities, while providing instruction on how to meet the needs of the typical home-owner. The building trades class laid a concrete sidewalk near the school bus stop as a convenience for the bus riders. They also constructed a large storage area under the north bleachers for track equipment and maintenance ma- terial. Assisting in other areas, they painted play- ground equipment at the grade school. They built a boy's restroom upstairs in the Eagles' Nest and painted the upstairs of the building. Learning the basic concepts and putting them into action consumed much of the time for general metals class. Students enrolled in this elective gained knowledge of alloys, casting, and the handling of molten metals. At the beginning of the course, students studied metals, welding, and forging and heat treatments. The sec- ond semester dwelt on machine tools, foundry, and sheet metal. V0A9 Biid i Busy Y cw Vocational Agriculture includes agricultural related occupations, farm mechanics, and Future Farmers of America. In its 14th year as a course at EHS, the curriculum also involved several trips to local farms to do veterinary work and to judge cattle. Under the instructor- ship of Powell Heide, the 39 members enrolled in agriculture studied farm procedures and then learned the proper application of them. Stu- dents also journeyed to other areas in Kansas to attend schools for judging cattle, poultry, swine, and sheep and farm mechanics. Vo- Ag boys were expected to wori on a personal project throughout the year. (TOP LEFT) Jerry Reames puts knowledge of the metal lathe to work while helping Bill Ahlgrim build a tractor.

FFA flA nks Busy Ywjv The Ellinwood FFA Chapter added 13 new members at the annual Greenhand initiation to make a total of 41 for the year. Headed by Paul Schloctermeier, president; Jerry Sieker (who replaced Ronnie Brown), vice-president; Marvin Sessler, sec- retary; Bill Ahlgrim, treasurer; Larry Kasselman. reporter; and LaVeme Schmidt, sentinel; the club sponsored many ac- tivities including its biggest money-raiser, the milk machine, and magazine and food sales. The Chapter enjoyed four eating fests; it opened the year with its annual get-acquainted picnic in September. It also enjoyed a duck and pheasant dinner, a chili feed, and offi- cially closed the year with the annual Parent-Son Banquet, a gala affair held in May. Throughout the year, FFA members participated in clinics on poultry, livestock, dairies, crops, and farm machinery. Two delegates, LaVeme Schmidt and Danny Soeken, headed the boys who attended the state convention at Manhattan on May 1-2. (BOTTOM LEFT) FFA officers greet members at the annual Greenhand Initiation.

The home ec courses include both time spent in the department's well-equipped kitchen and in operating a sewing machine. In these two study areas, the girls discuss nutrition, appetite appeal, and etiquette, as well as partici- pating in the practical application of cooking. canning, freez- ing. serving foods, and sewing. Bertha Achelpohl includes a study of family relations, child care, and home decoration, as well as budgeting and shopping, to supplement the course.

The club continued in its traditionally busy role dur- ing the 1966-67 term under the leadership of Jo Ann Cusick, its president. The 108 member group distributed pencil holders to the teachers at die start of the school term. This event was followed by a Hobo Party held at the city park to climax the annual membership drive. Mem- bers of the student body were in- vited to the Necking yearbook signingparty. Cost for admission depended on the number of inches around the individual's neck. The October agenda was highlighted by a teacher appre- ciation breakfast and a money drive for the charities which net- ted $431. 05. The charities were: Cerebral Palsy, Meals for Mil- lions, and Care. At Thanksgiv- ing each member donated a pound of food which was distributed to various needy families in town.

After many early hours of marching practice, the band members successfully performed the home- game half-time show. In October, these energetic bandmen traveled to Wichita State University's Band Day to display their precision drills. Prior to the Lyons football game, the Ellinwood band paraded down the main street. The youthful musicians entertained the community with concerts, the first indoor one on December 20, presenting seasonal selections. The band closed out the year with another concert on May 18. Other highlights of the instrumental year included a band workshop atHays on March 11. Earlydawn hours at the school, moistened reeds, individual instruction from Mr. Banman, and practice sessions in odd places like the Little Theater pre- pared the band and small groups for the CPL Music Festival on April 1, when the band obtained a I rating on its selec- tions SINFONIANS and INCIDENTAL SUITE, and the State Music Festival on April 7-8. On the first day, band and cho- rus performed, with the chorus obtaining a I rating. The second day, the solos and small ensembles participated. The stage band, a hard-working group within the band, put in many extra hours in preparation for various events where it provided entertainment.

E cjltas Tfo Pc CPL Caxhjmv, WUm 8, Los 1 The Ellinwood Eagles compiled an 8 - 1 record in route to one of the most exciting football seasons ever at EHS. The mighty Eagles led the CPL in offense and defense, scoring 285 points to their op- ponents 25. They scored the most points of any Ellinwood eleven since 1956 and they held their opponents to the fewest number of points since 1944. Head coach Jack Bowman was voted Area High School Coach of the Year and two Eagle players received state recognition. Niles Hauser was named to the all-state second team and Mike Scheufler received all-state honorable mention. At the beginning of the season perfect field conditions enabled Ellinwood to crush Sacred Heart 26 to 0. In seeking revenge for past losses Ellin- wood handed the St. John Tigers a 24 to 0 defeat. The Tigers were pre-season favorites to win the CPL. The following week produced the team's closest game of the season, and its only loss. Eli linwood failed to score and lost to the Sterling Black Bears 7 to 0. It was a game where every- thing seemed to go amiss. Regaining their strength and spirit the Eagles warmed up for an important encounter with unbeat- en Lindsborg by swamping Stafford 64 to 0 and posting a 32 to 0 Homecoming victory over Ells- worth. The Big Blue invaded the Vikings Home- coming and put a blemish on unbeaten Lindsborg with a 25 to 0 victory. The Eagles blanked Hoisington for the fourth straight year by flushing the Cards 34 to 0. Taking a break from league action the Eagles traveled to Lamed where Ellinwood bested the WCKL Indians 42 to 12. They ended the season by beating arch- rival Lyons 38 to 6 on a slippery Lions gridiron. VhftStbj ScWafe SEPT. 16: Sacred Heart at Ellinwood, we won, 26-0. SEPT. 23: St. John there, we won, 24- 0.

Mike Scheufler carried the ball 201 times for 1227 net yards gained, setting new records in both categories. The team, as a whole unit, set a record for car- rying the ball with a total of 479 times. The 33 punts was also a new season record and Craig Schneider's 40 yard punting average will be a mark others may shoot at in the future. Eighteen passes were intercepted, tying a record set in 1956 in this department. As might be expected, such an aggres- sive team amassed a new record in the penalty category with a total of 665 yards. Niles Hauser made 60 of the 401 rec- ord-setting total number of tackles. From a defensive stand- point, the team performed well, giving up 995 total yards for the season—a new defensive record. 1966 B FOOTBALL TEAM--TOP ROW: Tom Hunt, Danny Meyer, Cletus Straub, Jerry Shadley, David Robins, Harold Davis, Kelvin Schartz, Jon Wirtz, Steve Spacil, Thomas Petz, Bob Thomason, manager.

Preparations begun weeks earlier neared a climax at the traditional snake dance and bonfire held that evening. The Eagle spirit sprang forth as an Ellsworth player was burned in effigy at the bonfire. In an all-school assembly on Friday afternoon Phil Nix, Master-of- Ceremonies, announced Homecoming Royalty. Queen Susie Manning and King Keith Hazen had as attendants: Brenda Fisher, Mike Schuefler; Kathy Kimble, Jack Joiner; Jackie Glenn, Larry Harrell; Jan Pedigo, Craig Schneider; and Cheri Hartenbower, Ronnie Brown. The Eagles won the game over Ellsworth 32-0, though sixty mile-an- hour winds and freezing temperatures caused fans to leave periodically for short warm-ups with their car heaters. A newly-decorated Eagles' Nest created the proper atmosphere for the Homecoming dance sponsored by the Rockettes.

In fact the entire student body basked in the glory that.came to EHS when seven boys, bolstered by three other squad members, carried away the Cross Country Class A Championship trophy No- vember 5, 1966. The accomplishment proved note- worthy because 1) the school participated in the sport for the first time this year. 2) it was the first time any EHS athletic team won a state championship. Although not immediately apparent it served as a climax to the athletic career of Ronnie Browi , the team's best per- former, who died the following spring from an accident. In cross country running the two-mile race covers the country side as laid out with a chalk line for the runners to follow. Conditioning and endurance highlight the training program for the participants and it was run, Run, RUN for the ten man squad. Several of them also played on the football team in addition to their cross country endeavors. The team ran successfully in five meets as follows: September 28, Buhler Invitational, First October 19, Buhler Invitational (no. 2), First October 22, Oakley Invitational, First October 29, Hays Regional, Second November 5, Wamego, State Class A , First Cross-Country Team that ran at the state meet were: Dennis Wheatcroft. Ronnie Brown, JohnHuslig, Don Werner, Allen Petz. Also on the squad were: Don Richardson, Steve Mattix, and Mike Brown. 19 Vog Taugfcfc Business Bookkeeping classes perseveringly balanced out practice sets at the end of the year, under the instruction of Larry Vogt. Their dogged efforts should prove invaluable to them as future citi- zens. Typing classes found their newly acquired skill a handy asset in typing themes and term papers, with the guid- ance and influence of Anna Mae Carey. Office practice girls, learning to effi- ciently operate a business office, re- lieved Mrs. Jenischof some of her tasks, while occasionally giving her more, but always in the name of learning. What appears to be Greek to most students, the weird signs and symbols of the short- hand classes. really does represent words, as students learned a quick and efficient method of taking notes.

Through chemistry and biology, the students learned the structures of matter from atoms to frogs. Norma Auemheimer, chemistry instructor, taught ea- ger scientists the principles of atomic structure, formula evaluation, and molecular alignment. Applying these theo- ries in experiments, the class members were able to see sci- ence in action. The biology course gave the pupils an insight into the bodily functions of living creatures and plants. The course began with the study of plants and their workings, and progressed to the study and experimentation of reptiles, fish, and insects. Through the knowledge gained in these two sci- ence courses, a better understanding will be found of how man's environment works and how it can control its surround- ings. ROBERT ROBINS B.S.

The initial meeting enabled the club to elect the officers: David Stutenroth, president; Bruce Winkelman, vice-president; Duane Lanterman. secretary-treasurer; and Norman Rehme, reporter. Sponsor Norma Auemheimer showed slides she had taken of glaciers in northwestern United States. Programs and activities at subsequent meetings were varied. The organization welcomed Vincent Espinoza by presenting him with a club pin. In November. 18 club members and 19 guests visited the Hutchinson Planetari- um. Regular meetings featured informative talks on different theories of UFO’s; surface tension of water; Hologram Reconstruction; and the Russian Space man situation, with pictures and diagrams. A highly interest- ing program, given by Vincent Espinoza, presented life in Chile and a typical week of a teen-ager there. The club also sponsored two seminars during the year: Atomic Theory and Severe Weather Forecasting. The mem- bers closed out the year with a picnic at Bob Wagner's home. SWeiife Eoiih Uatk Whoever would have thought mathematics and physics to be so fascinating? Even Roger Ramjet of the Major Astro series added spice to the classwork. With approximately one-half of the total student body enrolled in this field, the spirit even captured the seventh hour class. Paul Perry, who taught Algebra I, physics, and junior high science the first semester resigned for personal reasons. Leon Sobba took over the classes for the second semester. Roger Strcme 1 taught Algebra II, geometry, trigonometry, and probability and statistics. Mr. Strcmel's fourth hour class found Room 4 particularly attractive, because it gave them precedence in the lunch line. Equations and slide rules became the mod fashion of the math set.

In December, the girls sold and delivered $363. 50 worth of holly. Weeks of planning the deco- rations culminated in the all school dance, Frost Frolic, which featured a group called Sons of Tyme. Ad- mission per couple to this key event of the season was one toy, which was given to underpriviledged children. February 8-14 brought about the annual Kayette Heart SisterWeek. The membership decided to donate money usually spent in a gift exchange to the Mental Retar- dation Center in Great Bend. In March, the Dad'n' Daughter chili supper was the chief calendar feature. 25 DuojmOu Ffiotutes Ffogfcfc The Juniors Presented a three act drama, FLIGHT INTO DANGER, during the first semester. The play centered around the flight of a small passenger airliner and its crew and passengers, who suffered from food poisoning contracted by them when they ate tainted fish served in flight. After the affliction of the pilot, a passenger, George Spencer (Rob Bryant) landed the plane with the aid of Captain Tre- leaven (Cliff Scheuerman), who assisted him from the air- port.

Assisting the AFS committee, Stuco helped sponsor Vincent Espinoza, the first ex- change student atEHS. On behalf of the student body, the council presented Mr. Henry Denker with a new drum, for his many years of service as a faithful Eagle follower and pep band partic- ipant. Besides its usual duties concerning Home- coming and assemblies, the council sold knit shirts to aid the American Field Service Chapter. Its accomplishments should motivate many worthwhile Stuco projects in the future. E- A T gtoup guZcfes assocloito Ellinwood Association of Teen- agers Board-Cheri Hartenbow- er.

Six elected cheerleaders and an alternate enthusiastically led the stu- dent body in support of EHS athletes throughout the 1966-67 school year. The cheerleaders, Jackie Glenn, Dale Harris, Cheri Hartenbower, Connie Hazen, Susie Manning, Jan Pedigo, andKathy Kimble mixed their efforts with those of the Rockettes to lend vocal support for the fighting Eagles. The Rockettes’ biggest project centered around preparations for homecoming. They white-washed windows and cars on Main Street, collected boxes for the bonfire, dec- orated for the royalty assembly, de- signed the throne for the queen and her attendants at the football field, and decorated the Eagles Nest for the homecoming dance, held after the game. At other times during the year, the Rockettes made posters, deco- rated goal posts, spangled the lucky horseshoe, painted gigantic signs presented skits to pep assemblies, aroused pep in general, and attend- ed both in and out-of-town games. Officers for the year were: Sherry Swan, president; Jayne Wirtz, vice- president; Marilyn Rapp, secretary; Marla Slough, publicity director; Bonnie Tomberlin, Marcia Sauber, Mary Flakus, Sandy Carey, Phyllis Taylor, and Maureen Casey, com- mittee chairmen; and Helen Miles, sponsor. Pep ctttpeKSfti (A 22 tMto Of the 22 pep rallies conducted by the Rockettes and Cheerleaders, the most infamous of all of them was the flush 'em rally, prior to the Hoisington football game. Pictured at the LEFT, the pep band in special attire and drum majorettes led by the inimitable comic, Barry Pruner, gave forth with raucous melodies to inspire the Ellinwood Eleven to victory. All who attended will long remember the infectious spirit and the promising taste of glory. Fans, with ashes in their mouths, looked forward to Ole Olson's Lindsborg victory dance.

I'm not making ex- cuses for the team. It was one of those years when the last moments' shots frequently rolled off the rim instead of through it. Indeed the Eagles finished the season with a 4 win, 15 loss record. Despite the scales being tipped heavily toward the loss side, the plucky team managed to win a third place trophy in the Lyons Invitational by defeating Lacrosse. Perhaps one of the most gratifying wins came when the boys humbled a much taller Hoisington quintet 53-50. The other two wins were at the expense of the Stafford Trojans who finished in the last position of the CPL standings. Important as the rec- ord is in the eyes of many people, there will be those who will recall the never-say-die spirit of the team, coaches, and stu- dent body. We have never had a group of players who worked more doggedly, said Principal George Cusick, or with a finer spirit. They consistently made fewer mistakes than their op- ponents. Size made the difference in every single game we played. Freshman Basketball-TOP ROW: Phil Roth, Clete Straub, Tomlsem, Kurt Rugan, David Schartz, Jon Wirtz.

In Phys Ed I and II, the boys played dodge- ball, blackbottom, scooter football, and basketball, in addition to the hours spent on the trampoline. Girls Phys Ed classes worked out on the trampo- line and balance beam and played games such as aerial darts and basket- ball.

Principal scenes involved antagonizing a governmental employee, protecting the el- igible young Toby from a designing female welfare supervisor, and routing out a gambling casino which had invaded Kwim- perville's privacy. Leading parts involved: David Stutenroth, Toby Kwimper; Barry Pruner, Pop Kwimper; Jan Griffin, Morristown; Brenda Fisher, South Orange; Sherin Deen, Holly Smith; JoAnn Cus- ick, Miss Claypoole; LecAnn Francis, Queen Bee; and Niles Hauser, H.

Vincent Espinoza Lastra from Chile resided for approximately ten months with the Carroll Manning family and attended the local high school. As an AFS student, Vincent shared equally in the pleasures and duties of the host fam- ily and of the school. The student AFS Club, headed by David Stu- tenroth, president, was instrumental in raising the $750 to sponsor a foreign student. The club’s first venture, selling Christmas cards, proved unsuc- cessful, but later the group earned $150 with AFS buttons. Contributions by various clubs for next year's exchange student amounted to $600, of which $250 came from the junior class. PAGES: BACK ROW: Sharon Doyle, Leslie Schiewe.

The club con- tributed this money to AFS. Pages' activities ranged from decorating the window in the main hall for National Library Week (picture), Ameri- can Education Week, and at Christmastime, to selling tickets at the freshman and junior high bas- ketball games.

Boiauko ,, Uostetso touuqldb Social Sciences Students enrolled in social studies courses learned much about the past and present governments of the world as well as the history and foundation of the United States. World History and World Geography introduced students to the many in- terests and problems of other coun- tries. Economics and American Government classes enabled seniors to study more on the domestic prob- lems, whereas the juniors studied nationalistic developments in American History. JACK BOWMAN B.S. Physical Ed. World History World Geography TERRY MASTERSON B.S. American Government American History English students learn the art of communication through their own compos- itions and ageless classics. Freshmen, with Nancy Johnson's guidance, obtained new vistas of the world after probing world literature, in addition to stressing basic grammar. Novel study penetrated the span from Dickens to Harper Lee, poetry bridged from Homer to Sandburg. Prior to ROMEO AND JULIET, sev- eralstudents assisted Wayne Richardson in assembling a Globe Theater model. Sophomores, led by Mary Hildenbrand, pursued authors ranging from Chekhov to Robert Frost, Shakespeare to Steinbeck. During 1966-67, the English II students read 7 novels, numerous short stories, drama, poetry, an epic, and non-fiction accounts. Classes utilized the grammatical knowledge learned the previous year in composition plus a few new elements learned. Main topics of English III discussions centered around such movements of American litera- ture as transcendentalism, puritanism, realism, naturalism, and existentialism. Chris Hildenbrand's 3 classes read 5 novels, which they analyzed as to literary period, form, and author's convictions. American literary periods from Co- lonial to Modem Day formulated units, which involved prose, poetry, and drama. For a research project, each student worked up two chronologies on American authors. Seniors probed the whole realm of English literature, from Beowulf to T. S. Eliot's poetry, tracing the development of English thought and imagery in 8 literary periods, covering all forms of writing. Composition formed the backbone of their creative endeavors in class, culminating in a research paper. 38 tWa iMbujudtos Taught 14 Engfosk FORENSICS--BACK ROW: Connie Shadley, Dennis Boepple, Deborah Dahlke, Pat Bran- son.

The class was divided into two segments: the first part of the year consisted of Debate activity and the second half of the year con- cerned speech. The debators spoke on the question: Resolved that the foreign aid pro- gram of the United States be limited to non- military assistance. Joe Ruyle, Nick Lo- Burgio, John Malone, and Ron Carlson brought home a trophy by placing third in the CPL novice tournament. EHS debators competed in other tournaments around the state. In speech activities, Ellinwood hosted the 1967 CPL speech festival and received eight I's at the event. Mr. Hogg took 14 entries to the District Speech Festival at Hays.

Spanish II brought to the student the customs and geography of Spanish speaking countries by studying books written in the language. Spanish Club, with 25 members, allowed the students to go beyond mere class work and learn more about the differing aspects of Spain and the U.S. One major project of the year was the caroling party. The club sang carols to invalids and shut-ins. Thus the Spanish Club offered many students the chance to become better acquainted with two continents: South America and Europe.

The highlight of the 1966-67 JCL year was the hosting of the annu- al Latin convention at GBHS. All club members worked feverishly for weeks ahead of the conclave to better prepare for it. At the convention, David Stutenroth, state president, acted as master of ceremonies. After the election votes and the award points were tab- ulated, it was learned that Phyllis Taylor had been chosen vice-presi- dent for 1967-68 year. EHS achieved runners-up honors in the athletic and scholastic contests. Dominating other parts of the year's activities included election of officers: Nick LoBurgio, president; Kay Petz, vice-president; Susie Manning, secretary-treasurer; Sandy Carey, historian; Pam Lenz, re- porter. The slave day auction which brought the club more than $20 and, finally, the Latin Banquet and Olympic games culminated the eventful Junior Classical League year.

Arts and Crafts Woodworking Ed Carlson provided a varied course in the In- dustrial Arts Department. Woodworking classes learned to build and refinish furniture. Along this line, four outstanding projects came from the creativity of Eugene Huslig with a hi-fi cab- inet; Roy Schloctermeier who made a head board and chest of drawers; Bob Ahlgrim who completed a bookcase head board; and Don Carlson (BELOW LEFT) as he puts the finishing touches to a grand- father clock. The Arts and Crafts students worked with leather crafts, acrylics, and liquid polyester casting. This class has proved as popular with girls as it has with boys. Pictured BELOW RIGHT, Steve Komarek. and BOTTOM LEFT, John Flynn apply the knowledge Mr. Carlson has imparted to them and their classmates on pride of work- manship, knowledge of safety and materials, the care and use of machinery. Stressing the lingo of the field, these students have developed a broader general interest in industry. Although they carried home the physical fruits of their la- bors, class members gained primarily when they planned a project and saw it through to its cul- mination. The Class of '68 chose a gay holiday theme for the annual Junior- Senior Prom and Banquet. The decorations were highly original, setting an apropos and colorful car- nival atmosphere. The main at- traction was a rather large green dragon, situated in the center of the floor. With a profusion of col- ored balloons and crepe paper, decorations of the evening featured a quaint little sidewalk cafe. Prior to the prom, sophomore girls clad in mini skirts and boys with mus- taches and straw hats served dinner to the juniors, seniors, and faculty. Principal George Cusick delivered a short address. Junior sponsors, Robert Ashlock and Donald Bo- lander, spent long hours in assisting class members with plans and pre- parations, including the final mar- athon before the gala event. This year's prom, sparkling and color- ful, highlighted the culmination of the school year.

CPL CPL Buhler Tictck T xm Bags fts jkfad CPU Weefc With the state championship in Cross Country being won by the Eagles last fall, it appeared that Ellinwood was destined to achieve another successful track season. Two days prior to the first meet of the season, the State Indoor at Manhattan, our most promising distance runner, Ronnie Brown, lost his life, and prospects and spirits were indeed glum. Where- as spirit in the fall had been bois- terous, a new atmosphere pervad- ed the spring era as students, ever mindful of the loss to them and their school, quietly assumed a new type of spirit--just as deter- mined but more rational and less assuming. It was a spirit that was consistent with the tradition of superior performance in the aca- demic arena as well as the co- curricular that has characterized Ellinwood schools throughout the years. This year Ellinwood moved forward with more strength in the field events and less on the track. Mike Scheufler, the school's star performer, achieved a new rec- ord for total points with 129 1 2, superceding the 116 1 2 set by Richard Conwell in 1966. He set a 210'l 2 record in the javelin on May 27 at the Wichita Meet of Champions. Nevertheless, we all know that no school victories could be forthcoming without the com- bined total points of the other team members. These enabled the Ellinwood squad to win the CPL track meet with 82 1 2 points. thereby dominating the league for the third consecutive year. Not content with this record. EHS went on to win the Regional meet in Hutchinson with 34 points, the first such win in the school's track history. The newly created track at- mosphere helped to charge the student body with unprecedented enthusiasm for spring sports, as evidenced by bus loads who at- tended even distant meets. It also added nine new trophies, not counting the three from Cross Country. E1-1£ Go Teoiw Wotu Fhst CPL Goty Uwb The highlight of the 1967 EHS golf season was a team victory in the first annual CPL meet. Top honors were won by placing first in the four-man and third in the two-man division. Consistent scoring by Barry Pruner, Dan Robins, Wade Johnson, and David Robins gave EHS a 38 stroke vic- tory in the four-man. BruceWinkelman and Bob Thomason followed with five scores in the two-man for a six-man to- tal of 522, six strokes better than the arch-rival, Lyons. Barry Pruner and Dan Robins played on the two-man team in all meets except the league followed by Nick LoBurgio, David Stutenroth, Bruce Winkelman, Wade Johnson, Bob Thomason, and David Robins on the four-man. Individual medalist honors went to Dan Robins in the Lyons Invitational and to Barry Pruner as second medalist in the league meet. Prospects for next season look good with five of the eight lettermen returning, plus a host of eager young boys to par- ticipate in the sport.

Pushing through the crowd to get caps and gowns, the Seniors finally realized that high school days were swiftly ending. Fri- day, hoping to perfect the lock step, they staggered into the gym. With Mr. Stitt's fine coaching, the two lines falter- ingly reached their seats. Af- ter brief instructions, the Gay 63 began their first fun-filled day. Sunday evening, midst swarming relatives and fussing parents, the calm seniors ea- gerly but gracefully marched down the aisles. Rev. Jim Koch, presenting the Baccalau- reate service, separated future reality from fantasy. The se- niors began preparing for the next jam-packed day and pa- rade. Monday morning the graduating class struggled through another profitable practice. Properly enlightened on procedures for Monday night, the weary seniors smiled their way through a series of class pictures, including Honor Students, the National Honor Society, 1967 Valedictorian StevenMattix, and Salutatorian Pat Barry. Leaving mundane chores, the exuberant seniors returned at 2:30 for the Awards Assembly, ending in the tradi- tional Will and Prophecy. That Moment approached rapidly as the graduates gathered to begin their final trek. John McCormally brought up the fu- ture again, and the class of '67 ended its high school ca- reer as each student excitedly received his diploma. About 45 seniors enjoyed early breakfast (4 A. M. , if you call that early) at the Cusick home. WPj Lfifjbjkoifij f-loJIk Eight EHS seniors from the Class of '67 felt the rewards for long hours of dedicated and devoted study when the scholarships were announced at the awards assembly, the final week of school. Steve Mattix. class valedictorian, received a $200 Ellinwood Teachers' Association grant, which he will use to attend Butler County Community Junior College. PatBarry, salutatorian. earn- ed a $300 renewable Putnam Scholarship at Kansas University. Pat also was awarded a $300 renewable scholarship hall appoint- ment, and two years' tuition from the State of Kansas. Kathy Kimble, headed for Fort Hays Kansas State College, was granted an anonymous scholarship and a Lions Club grant, each worth $150. Don Werner, also bound for FHKSC, became the recipient of a $150 anonymous scholarship and two years' tuition from the State of Kansas. Nick LoBurgio and David Stutenroth. both en- rolling at the University of Kansas, split the Edward H. Isem Scholarship, netting each boy $250. Larry Hiskett planned to use the $150 Rotary Scholarship he received to attend Pratt Junior College, while Marcia Sauber accepted the second $150 Rotary grant to further her studies at FHKSC. Six seniors were awarded membership in the National Honor Society. For eligibility, candidates must maintain a B average during the first seven semesters of high school. Qualifying sen- iors rate each other on leadership, service, and character, followed by faculty ratings on the same traits. The tabulations of votes are done in the principal's office. The Honor Society in May 1967 welcomed Steve Mattix. Pat Barry, Nick LoBurgio, Don Werner, Dave Stutenroth. and Kathy Kimble. Honor students for the year were SallyBrungardt, MaryFlakus.

Hands accomplish, create, ex- press. convey, greet, instruct, reward, and lead. Here hands strummed an instrument, served gloved faculty members, opened a football game, welcomed a speaker, straightened a crown, led John Banman and the marching band, served as support for two faculty members observing Kayettes. They also functioned one way for a student and another for a coach at a pep meeting, while they indicate rapt attention in the classroom. Happily, they made possible the passage of the bond issue at the polls. Om , 4 ’67Adiwds Its God £EADWION When the Class of '67 began its c 1 i m b up the ladder of education, the rungs were far apart and often slippery. The beginning 71 members found that studies, sports, and varied activities unified the class. A trip to Lamed State Hospital highlighted the freshman year. As sophomores, the class reached another rung on the ladder, as academic work consumed more time. They enjoyed a biology field trip to Cheyenne Bottoms. Twenty members of the class served at the Junior-Senior Banquet. Magazine sales by the class as juniors provided an evening In the Misty Moonlight, the prom and banquet. They set an all-time high of $3, 884. 81 in sales. Members of the class presented the three-act play, Curtain Going Up. Thus, the juniors had ad- vanced another step of the ladder of education. The senior year saw the presentation of Pioneer Go Home, the class play. In 1967, the seniors were guests of the Junior-Senior Prom and Banquet. Some class members helped EHS capture the CPL crown in football, track, golf, and the state championship in Crosscountry. Nearing graduation, and the final rung on the ladder, the 63 class members enjoyed a dinner and an evening of fun. Officers for the cl ass of '67 were: Craig Schneider, president; Dennis Bocpple, vice-president; Kathy Kimble, secretary-treasurer; Jack Joiner, David Stutenroth, Keith Hazen, Susie Manning, and Vincent Espinoza, Stuco.

He would surely have chosen this method of departure, had he had a choice, for track and its related activities constituted a first-love in Ronnie's life. Among other fondnesses he had were people, FFA, football, and an eager anticipa- tion for college. Like Housman's young athlete in his English IV book, Ronnie had won many a race for his town. Not only for that Thursday, but for all time, his friends will always hold him shoulder high in their thoughts. They will stand cheering by as they watch the Mile Runs named in Ronnie's honor. To an Athlete Dying Young (A. E. Housman) The time you won your town the race We chaired you through the market place; Man and boy stood cheering by, And home we brought you shoulder high. Today, the road all runners come, Shoulder-high we bring you home, And set you at your threshold down, Townsman of a stiller town. JtuuMS SJqa Vfe uj Eae tgefctC EHS absorbed the talents and versatility of the Class of '68 this past year. Bob Peter, Steve Komarek, Steve Bryant, and Larry Kassel man were members of the starting line- up in football. Leading juniors on the basketball starting team were John Meyer, Danny Robins, and Larry Kasselman. Jackie Glenn, Cheri Hartenbower, Connie Hazen, and Jan Pedigo served as cheerleaders. At their first yearly meeting the class elected the following officers: Kenny Hetrick, president; Marilyn Rapp, vice-president; Pam Lenz, secretary-treasurer; and Steve Bry- ant, John Meyer, and Frank Reiser, students council representatives. The Kayette Board contained four juniors: Pam Lenz, Sandra Car- ey, Deborah Dahlke, and Jan Ped- igo. The class had representation on the Rockette board with Marilyn Rapp, Sandra Carey, Maureen Casey, Marla Slough, and Phyllis Taylor serving. In the academic organization, Junior Classical League, the state vice-president slot went to Phyllis T ay lor, continuing Ellin wood's Leadership on the state level. As the year progressed, class members began to realize the re- sponsibilities which leadership will thrust upon their shoulders next year. They culminated their current year, sponsored by Robert A sh lock and Donald Bolander, by entertaining the seniors and faculty at the Mardi Gras. Spurred by Fred Meyer, they had proved t h e m s e 1 v e s capable salesmen in promoting magazine subscriptions to finance the gala event. LEFT: Juniors admired their choice of class rings.

The Class of '68 widely supported and participated in school ac- tivities during 1966-67 school year. Nearly 30students figured in the production of the three-act drama. Flight Into Danger. In the athletic department, nine men lettered in football, eight in basket- ball, ten in track, two in golf, and three in Cross Country. On the feminine side, 25 junior Rockettes cheered the boys on to victory. The class also contributed 33 Kayettes, 23 Latin Club members, and nine people to Spanish Club. Despite all the co-curricular activities, two students managed to maintain an A average. Juniors awaited their turn at dental inspection, imbued the school with spirit, make money for the prom and AFS, had messy lockers, studied or not as the mood hit them, overate the home- made bread in the lunch room, and took tests, Tests, TESTS, as indicated by Janice Klepper, Sharon Doyle, Carlene Hammer, and an unidentified person who rest their weary hands. . . .But JotuMS IAJ ub The Class of '68 consisted of ingenious people. The class decided to have a costume party, and the apparel was so unique, no one--not even the sponsors--ever knew whether anyone actually crashed the party! Two witches with brooms managed to stay out of each other's hair, a French maid fanned herself with her dust feathers, a Shakespearean clown stood on one foot, Little Red Riding Hood s m i 1 e d at the wolfish antics of her classmates, while a duck hunter came with decoy and hip boots, but no water.

CopkotYiMM Piov l VmoMpj The seventy-five sopho- mores played a vital roll i n the '66-'67 school year. Their heavy participation in music, athletics, and speech supple- mented the regular academic load. Sophomores made up over one-fifth of the band, with many of these musicians as members of different ensembles and the dance band. Trisha Lebbin also got into the art of baton twirling with the march- ing band. Sports also drew the atten- tion of many athletic-minded sophomores. Numerating line- ups for sports were: football, 14; basketball, 12; golf, 4; track, 13. Boosting the morale of these boys, Dale Harris hon- ored the class as the only soph- omore varsity cheerleader. At the end of the first se- mester. fourteen students qual- ifiedfor the honor roll. Nelwyn Richardson and Don Richardson enjoyed the spotlight of the A honor roll, with Sally Banks, Karen Birzer, Mark Doll, Steve Flakus, Barbara Hickel, Dale Harris, Wade Johnson, Duane Lanterman, Maurice Miller, Norman Rehme, Liz Reusch, and Bob Wagner as B honor students. Sophomore class officers for the year were: President-Don Richardson, Vi c e -president- Trisha Lebbin, Secretary-trea- surer-Nancy Radar and Student Council Representatives-Dale Harris and Janice Kowalsky.

USD 255 B@£iutS OlbG t ftojtS I SAM C. STITT It was the first year for Unified School District 355, which necessitated many operational and administrative changes. EHS prospered under the direction of the new unified board with Superintendent Sam Stitt and Prin- cipal George Cusick directly responsible for carrying out school policy. Meetings often prolonged late into the night, as these men and Fred Meyer, business man- ager, ironed out the details of the intricacies of current educational complexities. With three buildings to su7 pervise, student transportation to be provided, and several new faculty members to orient, Mr. Stitt's du- ties suddenly reached out over a vaster area. In the fall of 1966, the voters approved a $495. OCX) bond issue to build a new library, to be operated jointly with the Ellin wood Library Board of Trustees, plus ad- ditional classroom space and new science department facilities. Ground was broken for the new addition on the northwest comer of the block in late January. Architect for the project was Rondeau, Williams, and Smith of Great Bend and the general contractor was Wilson Construction Company of Salina. The conclu- sion of the building project was eagerly awaited by stu- dents and patrons, for the additional classroom space offered the promise of a larger and more comprehensive curriculum in succeeding years. It was a move consist- ent with the vision of better educational opportunities for the youth of southeastern Barton County. The ma- turation, socially and academically, of the individual student, assisted by his parents, school counselor, teach- ers, and the administration, all decisively backed up by the school board, spells the availability of as high an educational opportunity as the pupil desires.

The Journalism class produced 14 issues of the EAGLE during the school year. Each member served a turn as editor of the school newspaper. The typists were required to prepare the stencil while the office practice students supervised the mimeo- graphing. All class members performed various duties in pub- lishing the AQUILA. Nick LoBurgio assumed chief editorial responsibilities. Niles Hauser and Norman Rehme did most of the photographic chores except for the large group pictures and por- traits. Of the 17 pupils in the course, six members attended a yearbook clinic at Great Bend High School in September. Later, in October, seven students and Chris Hilden- brand, instructor, journeyed to Fort Hays Kansas State College for a day-long journalism confer- ence that embraced many aspects of newspaper and yearbook pro- duction.
