Knowing people —communicating. Applying our best, letting ourselves go, enabling wisdom to grow. Those that cared got involved, those that didn’t found other gratif- ying enterprises. It was to each his own, learning to laugh and enjoy, loving life and growing. Lifestyles. Patterned yet varied, alike yet unique. So much to do, so little time—to clown around, to have fun, to be me. Planned chance meetings. Discovering pleasures in the unexpected. Sharing them in hopes of making them last. Uncertain times challenging the survival of traditions. Younger faces leading the Bulldogs in sports, on the stage. Homecoming week was just another week and powderpuff almost wasn’t. Spirit vanished and pep rallies too. Females made their debut in shop classes and on the athletic field. Seniors fought for change yet clung to the traditional, giving way to the new and establishing tradition for another year. Novel learning experiences, a new attend- ance policy, exam exemption, future plans, new school. We had everything before us. But it would be another two years. “You missed three days.” Who’s really exempt? Tight job market. What future plans? Reality remained a dream. Nevertheless we had fun dreaming. THE PLACE weathered with age steeped in tradition the environment for learning about life, about others about ourselves THE PLACE 1974-75 4 Under Mr. Bailey’s watchful eye, American history students reveal their knowledge on a test. +� 4 Nick Raeber continues to write and proofread his advanced composition term paper as it nears completion. + Deb Renko makes use of the shorthand machine as she practices her newfound skill. + -—- Thinking over a writing assignment, Patricio Maya uses the library as a much needed study area. � 4 Erasing what's already been written only to write it over again, Mike Leopold and Larry White struggle to finish a sports arti- cle for the school newspaper. Putting It on Paper Although a great part of school consists of listen- ing and reasoning, a large percentage of time is also spent with “pen in hand.” A seemingly endless stream of writing assignments assail the average student in all types of classes. Helping to prepare for these assignments, the various composition classes find themselves writing paper after paper on every subject imaginable. Outline — rough draft — reoutline — revise — and type. Typing skills come in handy for those final composition assignments and for publica- tion classes such as journalism and school publications, A few notes are important to every class, but in many classes extensive notetaking is a daily occurrence. Those proficient in shorthand are a step ahead of those who labor in longhand. Classroom Audiences The projector usually doesn’t work very well, it seems the same man has narrated every school movie ever made, and many students use the darkened room to catch forty winks. Nevertheless, many teachers use films as a vital part in their lesson plans. Films can turn what would have been a dry lecture into a sight and sound presentation of important facts. Filmstrips are still used, but mainly in the library by individual students. Private stations have been set up in a corner to provide a student seeking extra infor- mation a place for viewing. y of Literatur: 4 4 Sue Toenyes, Tammy Ambuehl, and Mike Krump prepare to show the slides which they have created in their Communications class. 4 The dilemma of broken film projectors which often assails teachers only manages to get Miss McWhorter more tangled up, to the amusement of Deb Suever, Sherri Seifried, and Cookie Potthast. + Elaine White takes advantage of the library facilities to view a filmstrip. + Student librarian Susan Kaufman, shows proper usage of microfilm, an important aid for research. } With the projector in good running order, Mr. Bailey can sit back and watch the film with his students. 4 Dale Porter smiles proudly as he sifts some sand for casting. 4� The liberated hands of Kathy Korte found themselves in the rough atmosphere of the woodshop working with a chisel and mallet. With total hand and eye control, Lisa Gramlich shapes an in- tricate wire sculpture. + Industrial Ed. students learn how to handle highly precision- ed equipment like this drill press. +--+ Rick Switzer’s hands coax out notes that are not quite musical from this saw as it slices a board in half. � + 4 Gary Olliges’ hands skillfully control this sander as he smooths down a board. Hands That Create Hands play an important role in the learning process. The aim of more and more classes is teaching students a manual skill they can use after high school. Skills such as using the potter’s wheel and even cabinet-making are recognized by most people as fine arts. However many people do not realize the creativity and technicality that is stressed in such classes as welding, electricity, and the machine shop. Numbers Add Up In Every Class Sometime during first grade a teacher announced that 1+1=2. That simple announcement began a problem that would last all the way through high school—working with numbers. Simplicity quickly becomes complexity in high school. Math classes, science classes, industrial arts classes, in fact almost every class demands that a stu- dent be proficient with complicated mathematical operations. Whether it be a formula in physics, a trigonometry problem, or a drafting project, an ability to apply accepted principles to the ever-present numbers is essential. = Julie Gramlich and Pat Gibbons attempt to understand Mr. Hester’s instruc- tions on the use of the slide rule. } Adding variety to geometry class, Mr. Iftner demonstrates a basic principle. 4 = Gary Ellcessor sneers at the camera while hurriedly trying to finish a bookkeeping assignment. + Keeping track of his progress, David Landolt checks with the grade book. + + Students learn algebra methods by seeing them done on the board. Machines Come of Age Sewing machine—whirring. Saw—buzzing. Typewriter—chattering. VTR—humming. Calculators— (silence). The machine and its sounds were the middlemen between a student’s ideas and a project. It was the year of the electronic calculator. The miniature marvels of the space age joined the other machines in the school and made the tedious job of arithmetic almost a game. They were super for chemistry and math and bookkeeping and for saving time. By using calculators and other machines, students were able to expand their abilities and explore new worlds. + HHS’s first Danish exchange student, Johannes Hansen gets involved in the work of the VTR class, along with Mr. Burke, Phil Sellers and Gordon Hayman. In the off-moments of math-related classes, students discovered that a calculator could serve as a toy to fill the idle time. +--+ Playing a vital role in school publici- ty, HHS printers, Brenda Okai and Mike Ratermann ink type for the printing machine. ¥ + The sewing machine does its part, as Trudy Linenfelser completes a dress in Clothing I. + Helping to build scenery is only one of the projects done by Mr. West's classes. Shown here, assembling a spiral staircase are Mr. West and Steve Masters. ; Larry Council shows intense concentra- tion as he operates the metal lathe in his metals class. Looking Ahead to Future Occupations Two educational alternatives, Co-op and Area Vocational School, continued to be two of the most popular programs offered by HHS. Both offer the stu- dent who is looking ahead to employment after high school opportunities not available in the regular classroom. Students of AVHS must endure a daily bus ride to Collinsville for either one or two years, but once there they receive intensive training designed to give them a marketable skill after completing the program. Co-op students combine work with education. Their school day involves regular classes, a special class related to their job and time spent working. 4 Mark Ziegler, with his fellow classmates, learns a few basics about carpentry at AVHS. + Through her radio Co-op job, Marilyn Schallenberg was introduced to the art of announcing over the air. 4 — Angie Keller learns to cope with the respon- sibilities of the job provided her by Co-op. +- The intricate and seemingly confusing parts of a television become clear to Dennis Eilers, top stu- dent at AVHS in electronics. «- + Becoming competent with many types of of- fice machines helped Rhonda Hawkins win third place in national competition. + + Green-thumbed horticulture students Kathy Hencke and Scott Boehkout learn helpful hints on plant care. Labs Vital to Learning Usually a classroom exists only to provide a meeting place for a class. The room itself, except perhaps for maps and charts, usually has no bearing on what is learned. That all changes however when a class meets in a lab. Chemistry, physics, and biology would be almost worthless without the lab facilities. The same is true of home-ec and language classes. Labs differ from classrooms in that labs have es- sential equipment necessary for the proper learning of a subject. Whether it be kitchen equipment, scientific apparatus, sewing machines, or listening cubicles, labs play a vital role in education. 4 Careful observations are very important for Cindy Stallings’ and Tina Langel’s Chemistry experiment. Amid the clutter of a Biology class, Randy Allen explores the micro-world. 4 — With heads smashed between the two earphones of the headsets, Spanish students still find a little humor in their class. 4 Studying grain quality, agriculture students fulfill a class requirement. Foods class offers a chance for everyone to participate. Karen Weder tries to capture fruit flies from her precarious position atop a Biology table. YWith the London trip in mind, Nancy Beckman keeps her eyes on the music. The mellow rumble of the tympani adds a rich undercurrent to the harmony of the band. + + Following chorus music and the direc- tor are two lessons these girls have found helpful in Sophomore Girls Chorus. Learning to Express What's your way of expressing yourself to the world? Many students “find” themselves in music or art. Whether it’s putting anger on canvas in bold, brilliant reds, or making peace with your world through a quiet, calm song, it’s all a form of expression. Maybe you just enjoy the subject and the excitement. Hard work paid off for almost 80 budding musicians who brought home Ist or 2nd ratings from band and chorus state contests. Art students found their reward in seeing the completion of their master- pieces and remembering the fun and frustration that was poured into them. ¥ In chorus, as in every class, a few jokes are mingled in with the hard work. Here the tenors resign themselves to the chore of standing up while they sing. + Along with her fellow art students helping Tri Ford celebrate their Spring Festival, Barb Bosché sees her own design blossom. 4 Paint brush, plate, spoon, paint, a little confusion, and the imaginations of Bryan Weidner, LuGene Beck, and Sharon Jones all mix together as their art class begins. + Madonna Henrichs concentrates intent- ly as her ceramic project forms beneath her hands. + Being in an organization such as band means, among other things, uniformi- ty, for these French horns. Reaching Out The single most vital skill a student possesses is the ability to read. Through reading, a student ca n reach out and discover the genius of Shakespeare, the predic- tions of Einstein, human feelings through Steinbeck, and a good laugh with Mark Twain. Reaching out through reading was given a special emphasis with a library sponsored “Read-In.” For one half hour the en- tire school population,along with all other schools in the district, did nothing but read—everything from textbooks to the Rolling Stone to Tolkien. 4 Randy Alberternst finds his Commercial Art class to involve as much reading as it does drawing. 4 Robbie Michael becomes engrossed in his studies as a photographer attempts to capture the mood. + Two students take advantage of the unusually quiet gym to catch up on their paperbacks during the “Read-In”. 4 — — Wray Willmann managed to find a vacant spot in the library to concentrate. +— Mr. Schuette’s Survey of Lit. class becomes involved in one of the endless stream of stories and poetry that went along with the course. Positions change as a teacher is caught by a student without a book to read for the “Read-In”. Kids on Their Own This year more than any other, teachers discovered the advantages of letting students explore on their own. In a multitude of classes, many of which were not specifically labeled ISP, students were called upon to utilize their powers of imagination, ingenuity, and en- durance. “Contracts” were assigned in many classes to be handed in when complete. This new-found freedom brought with it the responsibility of students to learn to pace themselves while the teacher in the background waited until help was needed. The library’s facilities were being used to their fullest, as could be seen by the overcrowding that became an obstacle in many instances. Finding a place to study in the over- crowded library became a challenge to students who found themselves with free periods and nowhere to go. ISP Calculus class offers John Cole a chance to work at his own rate. $+ French students often find it more pleasant to work outside than in the classroom. History students Jay Ross, Tracy Poehl- ing, Bill Monken, Jeff Barber, Paul Plog, and Mike Landry prepare props before recording a video project. b}++ Roger Frey, in his School Publications class, displays a talent which many have developed throughout their school years. MES an iit . Ta sel ial ; waking Il © Advanced Locker Room Blues Who ripped off my socks? Pritzball again?! Where's the B. O, juice? I think I broke my leg! Do we gotta dress today? I can’t get this locker open! This gymsuit! Let's skip! Thru all these comments a year of PE ran on. Despite crowded conditions, the instructors and their classes managed to get in a few hours of grueling exer- cise each week. To accommodate the large number of students, guys and girls took turns “dressing out” in the winter. Even then classes remained large. Although PE was a required course, it wasn’t all that bad. Going out to the track, playing pins or battleball, all provided a lot of fun, even with all confu- sion. +--+ On the rather warm days of August and May, the shade looks more inviting than the sweltering sun after a hot game of softball. Square dancing in PE proves to be en- joyable for Vickie Klenke as she and her partner swing across the floor. + Softball stresses team competition as well as individual physical prowess. 4 PE has more to offer for Betty Stocker than the usual games and exercises. + In honor of the last day of PE, forgotten gym shoes and all other lost paraphernalia were used to decorate the locker room. Whether it’s doing push-ups, as demonstrated by Dale Henkhaus, or touching your toes, whichever way you look at it PE is not a dull class.

Graduation: After Four Years of Waiting With announcements sent, the senior trip plann- ed, and applications to jobs and colleges mailed, the Class of °75 prepared, unbelievingly, for baccalaureate and graduation ceremonies. Many realizing their stay at HHS was almost over, began clinging to their last high school days and the people that graduation would separate. For the first time seniors participated in the bac- calaureate service. Gary Ellcessor, Kathy Stieb, and Karen Weder were elected by their class to read scrip- ture, prayer, and poems. On a rainy May 29 evening the Class of °75 was led into the gym for commencement exercises by their junior marshals Barb Bosché and Ric Gonzales. Former graduate Lt. Commander Bill Tschudy spoke to a packed and very warm gym. As the processional began for the final time the seniors were drawn together by a strong spirit of unity. Te ars and final hugs of good-bye set the scene in the choral room as the graduates returned their caps and gowns.

Administrators Make It Work Entrusted with the job of managing the school is the Board of Education and administrators. It is their task to run the school as economically as possible and still provide the best education available. The board and Superinten- dent Olin W. Stratton saw a dream realized in the spring when construction of the new high school began, certainly the highlight of their year. Mr. Fred Singleton joined Mr. Paul Diefenbach and Mr. Sam White as high school administrator. They were faced with the usual problems as well as try- ing to implement a new attendance policy and solve the problem of student apathy. 441n addition to capably fulfilling the many responsibilities of his job, Superintendent of School Olin W. Stratton finds time to take part in many civic activities such as selling newspapers on Old News Boys Day. + Paul J. Diefenbach, Principal 4Sam White, Assistant Principal 4 � Fred Singleton, Assistant Principal 44 Assuming the responsibility of planning the new school are Board members Mr. Ronald Hemann, Mr. Robert Hosto, Mr. Richard Schrumpf, Mr. Virgil Suhre, Mr. Howard Robert- son, Mr. Carl Baumann, President Eugene Meffert, and Superintendent Olin W. Stratton. 44+ Mr. Edwin Gerling served as president of the Board of Education during most of the °74-°75 school year. During his years on the board, he worked diligently for passage of the school bond issue. The doors to Mr. Diefenbach’s office are always kept open to students who wish to discuss problems. } High school secretaries Sherry Mason and Judie Kreutzberg always manage to keep smiling even when surrounded by mountains of work. Special Services Integral to School Keeping the school clean and the students healthy, in class, informed and well fed is the job of the many people who operate behind the scenes. Whether it be sweeping the halls, comforting an ill student, juggling a student’s schedule, digging up a book or preparing lunch for a bunch of hungry students, the dedicated people who perform special servi ces are an integral part of the school. 4 Guiding students through four years of high school is counselor Dale Schmalz’s job. + School custodians Tom Vacca and Floyd Gilomen have the un- ending job of keeping up with school maintenance. 4 Mrs. Bargetzi tackles the mound of dirty dishes left from a day's lunch. «+ Mrs. Walther prepares a lunch that will feed hungry students and faculty alike. + + Keeping the library a pleasant place to work was a job handled with grace and dedication by Mrs. Hardin. «+--+ In spite of his many other duties, custodian Lawrence Pollmann was a willing worker when the band received its shipment of grapefruit. + 4 Mrs, Eardley, school nurse, also finds time to work with FMCC, THE ACTION personalities moving through the corridors of time their performances becoming the essence of life THE ACTION 1974-75 The Year That Was... Athletic events, contests, wins, losses, meetings, field trips, the musical, Westworld—’74-°75 had the ac- tion. Yet there was daily life—days marked by no special events other than ordinary routine. These too were part of the action. There was always something to do, something left to be done. There were highs and lows. Quiet times and active times combined into life which made up a year, special to each who lived it. The Year of the Big Sell Students and parents alike had more places to spend their money this year than any other, it seemed, HHS became a marketplace for anything and everything imaginable. Probably heading the list of salespersons was the band. Trying to gather enough money to finance a trip to London, the musicians sold greeting cards, fruit, pizza, and home-made baked items: Cheerleaders collected the money needed to go to camp by selling candy, while German club painted Christmas ornaments to help sell their way to- Ger- many. Tootsie Rolls and Fountain Balls were Co-op’s hot items. FBLA sold Tom Watt products to replenish their funds and the Latin Club again sold daisies. It was the year of the Big Sell. John Hegger and Andy Perkins enjoy a book at the bookfair put on by the HEA to assist the band on their London trip. 4 «Spanish students Barb Yesnosky and Kathy Ohren help out their club by selling baked goodies. + Tim Bolk, Steve Koch, and Mark Abert helped out during the long hours of unloading the boxes of oranges and grapefruit which band members had sold. + YFC gave balloons to anyone donating to March of Dimes. « Linda Terrill and Steve Walter practice their sales pitch for Co-op. Harriers Continue Success Story tradition of success greeted the 1974-75 cross country team, and by season’s end the harriers had added to that tradition. The many miles of painful run- ning paid off in the self-satisfaction of compiling an outstanding 11-2 record. The harriers scored the ul- timate cross country accomplishment—a perfect score of 15—three times during the season. Invitationals played a big part in the season and three times HHS carried home the first place trophy. Highland’s runners won at St. Paul. Jacksonville and at their own Highland Invitational. For all but one runner the season ended one week too soon, Highland placed fourth in the districts but could only manage sixth at sectionals to fall short of their goal of going to state. The harriers were represented, though, by Keith Byers, who qualified for state by finishing eighth at sectionals.

Practice: Unwanted Necessity Striving to ready themselves for upcoming seasons, HHS athletes start practices before school ever begins in the fall. Cross country and football players begin getting ready the first week of August, many times with the temperatures soaring well over the century mark. Even when there are no organized practices, most athletes work out on their own in the off-season. Basketball players and wrestlers are frequently seen in the gym two months before their seasons begin. After a season is well underway, practices sometimes become boring, and athletes don’t always work as hard as they could. As a preventative measure, Coach Dahncke dusted off his phonograph and played rock and roll records to keep his players bouncing and moving. « Bill Monken and Stan Stille prepare themselves for future grappling contests. « Kelly Cruthis keeps himself sharp for future golf matches by working on his putting. } Brian Lutz who later suffered a heart breaking injury that cut his season short works out in the batting cage. +} Don Mueller works on his pole vaulting technique to improve himself and get ready for the higher vaults ahead. 4 Head Coach Bennett inspires his trackmen with a pep talk before practice. 4 + Highland had the second best free-throw shooting team in the Metro East this year and here Al Iberg, Tim Gehrig, and Mike Holzinger work on their form, which helped achieve this record.

In the Bulldogs’ 4-5 season he rushed for 1,097 yards and caught passes for 215 for a total of 1,312 yards. Mike averaged 146 yards per contest with 6.7 yards per carry average. HHS also had a sizzling air game geared around senior quarterback Mike Holzinger, and two fine ends in Grant Houser and Keith Giger. Hole completed 51 aerials for a total of 946 yards. Giger pulled down 11 passes for 331 yards while Houser caught 14 for 322 yards. The Bulldogs placed three outstanding players on the first team all-conference squad in Mike Flemming, Jerry Wheatley, and Dale Siever.

Changes Shake-Up Homecoming Spirit Termination of the homecoming parade also seem- ed to bring an end to involvement. Feeling that building floats had become a burden to classes and clubs, the Student Council sought to change many aspects of the traditional homecoming week. Organizations were encouraged to decorate areas of the school. Decorating for the coronation became class projects. To stimulate individual competition a locker- decorating contest was initiated. Unfortunately, only a few felt the homecoming spirit as the walls remained bare and lockers empty. Even the popular powderpuff game felt the threat of extinction. A previously-scheduled game forced the girls to play the elimination games at four o’clock. The juniors captured first place in a win over the sophomores between halves of the freshman football game. Lack of time failed to produce a third place vic- tor. The traditional Coronation remained untoppled. Only minor changes were incorporated to bring about a shorter and more interesting program. Choosing a special maid and escort found Gail Hosto and Greg Frey accepting the honors. Tabulation of the votes brought Tina Thorley and Rod Zobrist to center stage as the 1974 Homecoming Queen and King. Another old established custom could not be damaged as the Bulldogs went on to beat the Triad Knights 36-7 to bring a happy ending to an uncertain homecoming. -. ehh =) eet © See | 4 Retiring Queen and King, Deb Weidner and Jeff Scott, look on as Tina Thorley and Rod Zobrist take their place as HHS’s new royalty. 4 4The front lawn became the setting for this pep rally complete with spirit stick com- petition and class skits. + GAA designed cartoon mobiles as decorations to carry out the Disneyworld theme. Linksmen Roll Te 1144-1 Year In the first season of fall golf the Bulldog golfers achieved great success.

Equipment, Managers Vital to Athletics Playing a vital role in an athlete’s life is his gear. An athlete must have good equipment to practice and train with, so he can perform to the best of his ability. Even more important than the equipment itself are the people who take care of it, the managers. The managers do all the dirty jobs like keeping the medicine chest filled, sweeping the gym, taking care of statistics, and taking inventory of equipment. Without them an athletic team could not function. 4 The batting cage enabled baseball players to sharpen batting skills even in cold weather. + Shoes are probably a basketball players most essential piece of equipment. 4 Manager Larry White keeps the baseball bats in order between innings. 44 Kevin Foederer, Larry White, and Rollie Brave tabulate stats during a timeout in a basketball game. + Football gear must be kept in top condition; faulty equip- ment could easily mean serious injury to the player. 4 The medicine chest plays an important role when a player is injured, or even when a shoestring breaks. Tennis, Bowling First Girls Sports Girls sports made their debut with a fall tennis team and a winter bowling team. The tennis team finished their regular season with a 1-4-1 record, but the bowling team had districts but failed to advance. Despite the shortage of meets, both teams had large turnouts and conducted regular practices. Interscholastic sports were a new experience for girls and many found the adjustment from GAA activities to the time-comsuming participation varsity sports demands hard to make. Even though it was a slow start, it was a start, which is what the girls were wanting. GIRLS TENNIS FRONT: Lori Harms, Tammy Ambuehl, Tammy Cordes, Cathy Robertson, Terri Imming, Gail Rutz.

Comedy Dominates Fall Productions The posters advertised “a night of comedy,” and indeed it was, but the All-School Play was really much more. A readers’ theatre and a one act play were team- ed up for the November 15-16 run as the audience received two contrasting styles of comedy. Opening the show was a cutting from the children’s book, “Henry and Ribsy,” performed in the readers’ theatre style. The cast succeeded in charming the audience with the simple story of a boy and a dog. After the whimsical comedy, the one act play “Black Comedy” presented a more sophisticated style of humor. The story centered around a young artist's problems with two lovers, a millionaire art buyer, a future father-in-law, unusual neighbors and a power failure. Complicating matters was the special effects of the entire show. When the actors were in light the audience saw only darkness and what was darkness to the characters was light to the audience. The story proved to be a challenge in use of imagination to the audience as well as the cast. !.; q: He: he - od (te ogy ae to + Band President Tim Zeller discusses plans for the London trip with Mr. Reg Frost, representative of the Silver Wings Band. + The Marching Bulldogs, outfitted in new uniforms. were nam- ed “Musical Ambassadors to the United Kingdom” by Governor Dan Walker. + -� 4 Picking corn was one of the band’s many money- making projects. +--+ Karen Holiday and Jo Holtkoetter unload grapefruit as the delivery work begins. +--+� 4 Tammy and Tena Ritzheimer volunteer their services at the turkey dinner sponsored for the band’s benefit. Band Works Toward London Goal Early in the fall members of the HHS band receiv- ed some very exciting and flattering news. The band had been invited to London for a concert tour by the British Airways Silver Wings Band. With the realiza- tion of such a trip came the monumental task of raising over $50,000. A number of projects were initiated; the most profitable involved selling tons of grapefruit and oranges. Other projects included a car wash, selling cards and pizzas, bake sales, a turkey dinner, picking corn, a 100-family yard sale and still others. Through the untiring efforts of the band members and their director, Mr. Ken Krauss, and thanks to the support of the band parents and the community, on June 28, after a year of hard work, the band was finally enroute to London. 4 Mr. Krauss directs as the band practices for the performances in Highland as well as London. thts Tammy Ambuehl ard from Mitzi Harms delig arols at the Band and Choral Christmas Concert A simple Christmas cz ¥ Girls’ ( horus performed old and new + Kathy Henke antic ipates what is under the wrapping paper as Karla Klaus exchange gifts � - After buying a permanent tr Cole begin to do the decorating s at the FHA Christmas party F Santa Claus intrigued everyone with his stories é she, Peggy Morgan and Student Council members Phil Sellers and John Twas the Season Although Christmas means something different to everyone, the good will is universal.

Putting Words to Music To the many students involved, Chorus meant giv- ing up half a lunch hour for practice. But more than that, it meant sharing talents with various audiences. The chorus this year gave a Christmas concert with the band and also gave their own concert in the spring. In between learning music for these, there were also con- tests to prepare for. Both choruses received high ratings. Besides being in Girl’s chorus or Mixed chorus members had the opportunity to join one of the four ensembles.

VTR, Paw Print Spotlight Activities Keeping students informed as to what was happen- ing at HHS was the goal of High Witness News and the Paw Print. Starting as an experiment, the VTR staff put together a video program, complete with news, features, sports, interviews and the weather. A favorable audience reaction soon turned the experi- ment to a bi-weekly event. Fridays found the library crowded with students watching the news. Unfor- tunately the time factor involved in filming became too great and the project had to be temporarily shelved. The addition of the VTR news did not alter the workings of the HHS newspaper, the Paw Print. Inter- viewing, story writing, typing and picture-taking led to cutting and pasting the bits and pieces into the actual newspaper. The addition of a headline machine proved a real asset to the staff, boosting the paper’s appearance and efficiency. The staff spent many hours making the Paw Print, an informative publication accepted by the students. 44 Filming the “High Witness News” are Brian Schumacher and Dale Hastings. } PAW PRINT STAFF FRONT: Mike Leopold, Sharon Schwartz, Larry White, Julie Gramlich, Deb Stille, Jerry Hammond, Mike Weidner.

Media Gains Status As Classroom Aid In addition to regular courses in media and com- munications also involved in the workings of the media were the Iris Staff and another phase of the VTR Staff. Throughout the year, the VTR class taped and filmed classroom work, speeches, plays and more. Their ef- forts aided in a very different and special learning ex- perience. Combining words and pictures, the Iris Staff work- ed to portray and record the year in the form of the yearbook. Also experimenting, they devised a new for- mat in hopes of creating a different type of yearbook. 4 Filming classwork proved to be a new learning experience for these freshmen and another project for Leslie Landolt of the VTR staff. 4 4 Cathy Purman stops to correct an error while typing an article for the Paw Print. } IRIS STAFF FRONT: Madonna Henrichs, Joy Bullivant, Barb Bosche, Robin Rosenthal, Greg Frey (editor), Karen Neathery.

Zobrist-Led ’Dogs Have Ups and Downs If 12-13 record can be called successful, the basket- ball season was indeed a success. The season included triumph when it was least expected, an agonizing losing streak, a game in the St. Louis Arena and a sterling per- formance by Rod Zobrist. Highland surprised nearly everyone by winning their first four games but then the roof caved in. Losing is never fun but losing when you could have won is es- pecially depressing. In a stretch of fifteen games midway through the season the Bulldogs won but four and it didn’t seem like things would ever improve. A big win over Jerseyville and a stunning victory over highly- favored Roxana broke the streak and set Coach Tom Dahncke’s club up for a fine finish. A big moment for the team came when they trounc- ed Assumption in the St. Louis Arena. The game was played before thousands of empty seats, but it was a thrill for the team to play on the same floor that some of the world’s great basketball players have played on. Rod Zobrist was the team’s individual star as he amazed the fans and his fellow teammates alike with his electric passing, pinpoint shooting and uncanny ability to come up with the big play at the right time. Rod became only the seventh player in HHS history to amass 500 points in a single season and led the team in nearly every statistic. pp. ¥ A Bethalto: eh 710 } Mater Dei Tournament p 68.

Cheerleaders Uncap School Spirit No matter what the sport, there will always be enthusiastic fans at HHS. Through winning or losing seasons the support of the student body is appreciated by all athletes. Working to build that spirit are the cheerleading squads. Most people don’t realize the time spent prac- ticing by these girls to insure precision cheers and stunts. A week at cheerleading camp ended with all the varsity cheerleaders receiving superior ratings. Bring- ing back new ideas and cheers, the varsity cheerleaders, along with the freshman and JV squads, worked to keep the fans yelling and the spirit alive.

Highland had only three seniors this year, who became known as the “Big Three” and served as the anchormen in the Highland attack. Craig Schulte and Darrell Landolt, both achieved 14-3 records and Ben Bassett wound up with a 10-7 record. Craig won his weight class in the conference meet and Darrell took second in his class. Craig led the team in pins with eleven while Ben came in second with nine, Highland’s 9-9-1 team had some fine un- derclassmen too.

Field Trips Still Play Role in Learning Whether planned by classes or clubs, field trips were an enjoyable break in the ordinary everyday lear- ning process, While the cost of such ventures soared and the numbers were greatly cut down, most students still felt field trips were valuable sources of learning. Trips included tours of various industries, businesses, area hospitals and historical sights. Some regarded them as free days away from school; others saw them as time well invested. 4 he EB creer sf ; | dl ae 7 4 Wick’s Pipe Organ Company was the destination of this trip taken by industrial education students. + Members of International Fellowship found wandering through the historical sites at St. Genevieve, Missouri, interesting and fun. +--+ The VTR staff made a trip to KSD- TV to see the workings of the television studio. « 4 Data Processing classes learned about the computer systems used by B- Line. + Harry the Horse, (Grant Houser) all the way down from Brooklyn meets Benny Southstreet (Rod Zobrist) on Broadway. ¥ Sky Masterson (Tim Gehrig) listens rather impatiently as Sarah (Teri Augustin) confesses her love for him. ¥ Never found very far from each other are Nicely-Nicely Johnson (Mike Weidner) and food. van - eae e ¥- : i her ’ ee ae eG = «+ Feagel ‘Guys and Dolls’ Merits Rave Reviews Three months of hard work went into the produc- tion of “Guys and Dolls” and the result was truly out- standing. Mr. Pat Brafford, in his final musical, went all out to make the eighth an nual musical something special, The cast made it a truly all-school musical. All four classes were represented, including a lead from each. Giant painted back drops made the scenery quite spectacular. The stage was extended and no expense was spared in renting costumes. And then there were the performances. For perhaps the first time, the show was running smoothly by the Sunday afternoon rehearsal. The public perfor- mances all went well, especially Saturday's, which some called the best single performance in eight years of musicals. } Sister Abernathy (Marie Gregoire) cannot wish her graddaughter, Sarah (Teri Augustin) more than to find her own special love. + Sky (Tim Gehrig) shows how tough he ean be as he knocks out Big Jule (Dale Hastings). 4 Adelaide (Donna Meffert) explains that with her upcoming raise nothing should prevent Nathan (Dave Rosen) from marrying her. + Members of the Save-a-Soul Mission continue their efforts to reform the fre- quent inhabitants of Broadway. + Aclassy “doll” like Paula Mullenix demands respect and attention from any “guy.” 4 4 Sky explains to the uncomfortable New York gamblers that they are in a mis- sion, not a saloon. 4 4 With the end of Saturday's performance came another end—the end of Mr. Brafford’s reign as director of HHS musicals. Winning Recipe For Great Musical Take a story that is centered around a revolving crap game. Add gamblers and cops, some rather shady ladies and the Save-A-Soul Mission, all on Broadway. Complicate the plot with two sets of lovers: one a show girl who wants to get married to a local hood; and the other, one of the town’s biggest gangsters in love with a sister from the mission. Combine with good music, lively lyrics, talent, months of practices and an au- dience. The result: HHS’s 8th Annual All-School Musical — “Guys and Dolls.” 4 Adelaide (Donna Meffert) and the Hot Box Girls perform a number for the audience at the Hot Box. Long Practices, Long Waits All Part of Musical Opening night, rounds of applause, a polished performance, all part of the real thing, a smooth two and a half hours worth of entertainment. This all came about through the work of many people working long hours, striv- ing to perfect it. Mr. Ken Krauss directed his pit band over song after song, getting them ready to provide the music. While Mr. Pat Brafford directed the on-stage ac- ting, Mrs. Jeanne Storts waited patiently to go over the singing parts. Students spent long periods of time constructing scenery, and the back stage crew, under Mr. Dale Schmalz worked through long rehearsals making sure the sets were in place. Other groups, the lighting crew, ushers, publicity committee, and ticket salesper- sons, all helped make “Guys and Dolls” a success. + Mrs. Storts adds her voice to help the cast out. 4 Practices meant long waits while the wrinkles were ironed out. 44 To get make-up on right meant actors had to arrive an hour and a half early before the night's performance. 44 In the darkness below the stage, the pit band provides the music. + Members of the cast await their call to £zo on stage. +--+� The backstage crew listen to instruc- tions during rehearsals. Homeroom Loss Helps to Create Club Crisis With the disappearance of homeroom also came the loss of interest in clubs. There was no time for meetings, expecially committee meetings to plan and organize activities. Students were reluctant to leave im- portant class lectures to attend club meetings that ac- complished little. Memberships dropped and poor attendance caused numerous cancellations. Yet despite the crisis, a faithful few in many organizations struggl- ed to keep the club alive and create interest through varied social and service activities. French Club French Club provided its members with several oppor- tunities to experience the French culture. Slides of Canada and talks about Belgium by exchange student Marie Gregoire helped students visualize the French way of life. Cooking and acting skills were a real asset at the annual banquet. While some members devoted their talents to preparing the five-course meal, others presented “La Premier Colsse,” a short French play. Other opportunities to ex- perience the French culture came at BAC’s annual French day. Members enjoyed a puppet show, slide presentation, movie, and ballet demonstration. Officers were President Randy Manley, Vice President Stacey Diefenbach, Secretary Louise Frey, Treasurer Larry White. International Fellowship To bring students from other countries together to exchange ideas about their homelands is the purpose of International Fellowship. For the past few years all of HHS’s exchange students have come from South America, but in 1974, besides the South American students Patrico Maya, Alphonso Carballo, and Gina Martinez, Marie Gregoire and Johannes Hansen introduced the European way of life. After sponsoring a welcoming tea for the visitors, Inter- national Fellowship members introduced the exchange students to many HHS activities. Together they enjeyed the international banquet, at which they sampled foods from many lands. In spring members of the club traveled to St. Genevieve, Missouri, to visit houses with Spanish and French descent. Officers were President Teri Schmetter, Vice-president Suzie Schuerman, Secretary Terri Stufflebeam, Treasurer Rhonda Hawkins. JCL Members of the Junior Classical League participated in ac- tivities at home and away. At the state convention they were honored by being elected Vice-president and took first place as Linda Roggenkamp was named the best dressed Roman lady. Six members of the club traveled to Collinsville where Sally Felts and Dave Trauernicht scored high enough to advance to the State Latin contest. Sally Felts became the first HHS student to ever place at state when she took third place. The group helped organize the international banquet and brought spring to HHS on May 1 by sponsoring their annual Daidy Day. JCL officers were President Janelle Malan, Vice-president Diane Steiner, Secretary Teri Schmetter, Treasurer Vickie Klenke. German Club Travel! See the world! Visit exciting places! Members of the German Club have the opportunity to make these dreams become reality. The club is planning to tour German-speaking countries in the summer of °76. With the trip as a goal, members found it exciting to raise money for their long-range project. They built up the treasury by sell- ing hand-painted ornaments and bumper stickers. In addition they saved bonus coupons and held car washes, as well as sell- ing hand-made pins with clever slogans written in German. German Club officers were President Robin Rosenthal, Vice-president Jay Ross, Secretary Teri Augustin, and Treasurer Chuck Steinbruegge. Career Clubs Emphasize Giving of their time and talents while having a good time could have been what members of the Future Business Leaders of American had in mind when they each got sponsors to donate le a pin to the March of Dimes. Through strikes and spares the club managed to raise $40.00 while bowling. The busy year kicked off with a picnic at city lake and continued with bowling, con- test preparations, service projects, and the State Leadership convention where Keith Poss served as the Vice President of the state FBLA. Officers were President Keith Poss, Vice- President Karen Neathery, Secretary Vicky Steinbruegge, Treasurer Allen Iberg. Occupations Co-op Strikes, layoffs, rising unemployment—these were on parents’ minds. Dwindling paychecks, reduced working hours, finding summer jobs—these were the problems facing students. Members of the Co-op program were luckier than some. Through the program students were guaranteed some work each week, but the amount of work and size of that all-important paycheck decreased as times got harder. Contests took up a great deal of the students’ free time. In Area II competition, Office Occupations had seven members place first or second while Distributive Education took three first-place honors. At state both groups made a fine showing with DE having two members reach finals and OO bringing home two first place trophies. OO was honored by having Sandy Schrumpf and Rhonda Hawkins compete in National competition where Rhonda captured third place. FHA Fifty cents for one carmel apple? Future Homemakers of America was one club that really felt the pinch of inflation and rising food prices. Nevertheless, students still anticipated FHA homemade goodies whenever they were available at home games and frequent bake sales at school. As in the past, the group also sponsored their annual events such as Daddy Date Nite, the Mother and Daughter Banquet, Ma, Pa, and Me night, and a Children’s Christmas Party. They also baked valentine cookies for the faculty, and Christmas cookies for the Nursing Homes. FHA officers were President Jody Koehler, Vice- president Pat Gibbons, Secretary Ellen Jakel, Treasurer Deb Jaeger. First it was powderpuff. Then girls ten- nis. And finally in 1974, a girl infiltrated an all-boy club. Norma Hosto became the first female member of FFA. Norma’s plans to become an Ag teacher led her to take one Ag course each semester and get involved in the club’s functions. Competition was one area in which the club showed its strength, At the section 22 contest, 15 of Highland’s team took either first or second honors. Rick Metzger cap- tured the coveted Agri-Business Award. Rick also displayed his speaking ability when he brought home the sectional award plaque for extemporaneous speaking. FFA officers were President Dale Henkhaus, Vice-president Ron Frey, Secretary Kevin Alberternst, and Treasurer Rick Metzger. FMCC “I don’t think this could be right. Your blood pressure reads 310 -10. Let me try again.”’ While members of the Future Medical Career Club perfected their diagnosing skills they raised $75 for the Heart Fund and discovered 20 people with symptoms of high blood pressure during Heart Week. Other activities for the year included a film on deaf children, a talk on veterinary medicine, a trip to Washington University, and taking third place with their homecoming decorations. FMCC officers were President Teri Schmetter, Vice- president Deb Sievers, Susie Volz, Treasurer Suzie Schuer- mann. Long Bus Rides Common Occurrences To Club Winners We're leaving at what time? BYU mP—BUmP—BUmP—B Ump. Doesn’t this bus have any heat? Let’s sit in the back. Put down the windows—it’s hot! Turn up the radio. Fall trips, spring trips, con- tests. Everyone that belongs to a club has spent some time in a bus and sooner or later they learn how to use their time. They play cards, sing, read, tell jokes, prepare for the upcoming contest, confide in a friend, laugh, or catch up on some sleep. Buses weren't designed to be comfortable, but they do get you to contests. It’s a sacrifice—but on the way home if you are a winner you never notice the in- convenience. During the 74-75 year HHS’s buses carried home many winners. Many clubs showed that competi- tion was one of their strong areas when they carried home trophies from Distributive Education, Of- fice Occupations, FFA, Speech, and Latin contests. + FFA members competed in produce and cattle judging as well as public speaking.

NHS Not everyone could be an actual member of National Honor Society, but everyone had a chance to get involved in their projects. Service projects included compiling a student directory and planning Westworld II, a careers day. The student directory con- tained not only names, addresses, and phone numbers of all students and faculty, but also a complete school calendar. NHS’s largest pro- ject, Westworld II, provided students with a break from the routine of school. Everyone signed up for at least five sessions in any of four areas—information, arts and crafts, careers, and entertainment. Bel- ly dancing, sportscasting, Baker in concert. and a session on the Kennedy assassination were among the most popular. In the late spr- ing, NHS members assisted the Board of Education in planning an Honors Convocation for honor students and their parents. Officers were President Greg Frey, Vice-president Nancy Beckman, Secretary Debra Stille, Treasurer Charla Spurgeon. Service Clubs Develop Awareness Student Council A Homecoming without a parade, a disappointing Thanksgiving food drive. poor attendance at meetings, numerous resignations, and even a motion to disband caused the Student Council to question its existence. There had always been a Student Council at HHS, but was it still relevant to today’s students? What was the function of the organization? These and other questions were presented to the student body through classroom discussions after members of the Council appealed to the faculty for help. The results led to a better awareness of the Council’s function in the school and the problems faced by its members. Communication channels opened as Council members were invited to at- tend faculty meetings while they vowed to make students aware of the organization's proceedings, While the Council faced mounting difficulties throughout the year, spring saw an increased interest as students campaigned to gain a seat on the 1975-76 Council led by its first female presi- dent, Barb Bosche’. Members of the 74-75 council were President John Cole, Vice-president Phil Sellers, Secretary Penny Daum, Treasurer Barb Bosche’, Nancy Beckman, Laurie Bielong, Lynda Steiner, Cheryl Alemond, Charlotta Mann, Steve McPherson, Debbie Oestringer, Sue Michael, Birdie Kantner, Tina Rogers, Laurie Sybert, Paul Yesnosky, Lana Byers, Jeff Gehrig, Sue Giger, Scott Kohlhaas, and Sue Toenyes. Library Club At 10:00 a.m. on April 16 time stopped. For 25 minutes classes stopped, talking stopped, even PE classes were in- terrupted. Everyone, including teachers and administrators, picked up a book and participated in HHS’s first “Read-In”™ sponsored by the library aides during National Library Week. he “Read-In” was just one of many services rovided by stu- dent aides who assisted Mrs. Hardin in the library. Officers for the year were President Joann Crager, Vice- pore Pat Jakel, Secretary Lisa Early, Treasurer Barb ‘esnosky. YFC Chapped hands, chilled faces, tired feet, and warm hearts could have been a description of Youth for Christ members after they had spent a cold March Saturday collecting for the March of Dimes. Later that evening at a pizza party, they celebrated the successful campaign in which $174 had been collected. Halfway through the year, strange announcements began appearing about the “3”. The mystery turned out to be a movie about life on a university campus. After the movie Kent Paris was on hand to lead a rap session. Officers for the year were President Steve McPherson, Vice-president Debbie Kessinger, Secretary Madonna Henrichs. Pep Club Huge banners and gigantic signs lined the halls promoting homecoming spirit. An outdoor pep rally combined with enthusiastic pep club members revealed more school spirit than had been witnessed for a long time. However, soon after homecoming, Pep Club became the victim of disinterest. While a few members fought to rekindle enthusiasm, dwindling school spirit even- tually led to the decision to disband the club. Pep Club had become another victim of the times. Clubs Promote Friendly Competition Speech Club Neither snow or sleet or pouring rain could stop the 74-75 speech team. Members rose at 5:00 to prepare, rode over an hour on a cold bus, and usually arrived just in time for their first round. Even under these conditions many members brought home high honors. Lynda Steiner and Laurie Manwaring each brought home first place trophies from the MVC tournament while Marie Gregoire and the Readers Theatre presentation “Henry and Ribsy” carried home first place trophies from the district contest. Chess Club Most people think of chess as a game, but members of the chess team practiced and com- peted as if it were a real sport. For endless hours they played members of their own team to prepare for the tournament they hosted for eight surrounding schools. Although the varsi- ty members of the team did not fare well, the freshman-sophomore team took second place in their division. Chess Club officers President Paul Abert, Vice-president Darrell Landolt, Secretary Doug Hosto, Treasurer Tim Stille. GAA Donning heavy coats, hats, ski boots, gloves, and skis, 34 members of the Girls Athletic Association tried their luck at skiing for a weekend at Galesburg in February. A few members had trouble with the lift while others found it im- possible to stand up after falling in a snowdrift. Some members recovering from bruises and sore muscles in the lodge, found the game of air hockey more appropriate to their skills, Other activities for the club's final year included making mobiles for Homecoming, organizing powder-puff, selling candy, planning the mother-daughter banquet, and taking part in various sports such as bowling, softball, and hiking. Officers were President Tammy Tirzheimer, Vice- president Susie Volz, Secretary Teri Schmetter, Treasurer Debbie Sander. GAA 1932-1975 One of HHS’s oldest, largest, and most active organizations, the Girls Athletic Association has disbanded. Girls need no longer belong to a club in order to compete in sports, but may earn their letters in a varsity program of their own. GAA got its start in 1932 with forty active members, To be a member of one of the most popular clubs, girls were willing to come to school dressed as nursery rhyme characters, walk up stairs backwards and speak in a whisper all day. GAA provided a variety of athletic activities which continued to grow each year, The program ranged from volleyball, softball, hiking, biking, bowling to even skiing this past year. By 1952, the club initiated a point system which not only guaranteed that each member would be an active member, but also provided a means whereby the girls could earn letters. Few obstacles, however, could keep many girls out of GAA, which boasted over 200 members for many years. The girls willingly sold tons of candy of all kinds during its years of existence to help pay for the annual spring weekend trip to a resort in the Ozarks from which members would return tired and sunburned. GAA members were competitors. For five consecutive years between 1960 and 1965, they captured first place for their homecoming float entry which always won either for beauty or ingenuity. In recent years, they took charge of organizing the annual powderpuff game, eliminating some of the roughness which threatened the powderpuff’s existence. As the closed field of inter-scholastic competition opened to girls, interest in GAA waned and the membership dropped. The original purpose of the organization no longer existed. Something better had come in its stead. After all, it was what the girls had been working toward for many years. Intramurals: Just for Fun Having fun is the reason for intramural basket- ball. It gave athletically-inclined students who were not out for winter sports a chance to have some fun playing basketball. Team Three wound up the champions of the 75 season by defeating Team One 78-61. This year’s scor- ing honors went to Brian Schumacher who conned 124 points. Jerome Lesicko came in second with 91 points, + 4 Brian Schumacher dribbles warily down the court toward an awaiting defense. Rollie Brave banks the ball off the boards for an easy lay-up. 4 Mike Flemming attempts a tough reverse lay-up in the cham- pionship game, + GAA’s skiing trip to Chestnut Mountain not only acquainted many girls with skiing but also gave Cindy Holzinger a chance to play air hockey. 4 Tammy Ritzhiemer participates in bowling, one of the many sports offered by GAA. GAA Ends Role in Intramural Program For years, GAA served the school as an in- tramurals program for girls. Through its many ac- tivities over the years, GAA provided athletically in- clined girls their only chance to compete in sports. That all changed, however, with the advent of a girls sports program. Coupled with a declining student interest, the newly formed girls teams were reason enough to drop GAA. For the record, GAA offered a form of intramurals for girls in the following sports during its 32 years of existence: hiking, biking, basketball, archery, bowling, volleyball, softball, swimming, tennis, ping-pong, riding, baseball, skating, skiing, tumbling, horse shoe throwing, soccer, ring tennis, long ball, golf and tram- polining. Westworld II Brings Field Trips to HHS First day of sign up for Westworld II brought long lines, quickly-filled sessions, enthusiastic students and tired NHS members. After last year’s successful Westworld, Westworld II, a day when students attend- ed sessions on careers, crafts, and topics of general in- formation instead of regular classes. promised to be bigger and better. A total of 93 sessions were scheduled about 64 different subjects. Popular sessions from last year were repeated and many new and interesting sessions were added. Some of the most highly-attended and first-to-be- filled sessions included a concert performed by Mr. Baker, a gymnastic demonstration, a discussion of what really happened at the Kennedy Assassination, a magic show, a talk about sportscasting from Ron Jacober and learning to belly dance. The list continued and students found Westworld II interesting, informative and fun. 4 Mike Kuhner and Nancy Beckman help to recreate the sounds of a foxhunt with these unusual musical inventions.

Despite Questions The coming of spring brought many questions about the existence of the Jr.-Sr. prom. Some said the cost of hosting the prom was outrageous, the cost of go- ing just as bad. What’s the purpose of having a prom? Isnt it awfully early? Is anybody renting a tux? It’s good for kids to get dressed-up once in awhile. While the controversy continued, the Junior Class began making preparations. The site picked was the SIU Ballroom; the theme, “Stairway to Heaven”; the band, Griffin. All of this plus decorations, favors, refreshments and much more were part of the plan- ning done by officers, sponsors and committee members to make April 5 an enjoyable, memorable evening.

Before you know it you've caught that age old disease diagnosed as spring fever! The symptoms are obvious and very con- tagious. They include flinging open windows, converti- ble riding, extending an hour lunch to include the entire afternoon, absent mindedly staring out the window, kicking off shoes, dragging shorts out of the back of the closet, watching baseball, riding bikes, throwing frisbees, forgetting homework and awaiting the sure but all-too-slow-in-coming cure known as summer vacation. + PE classes found a shade tree the perfect place to be on a warm afternoon, Miss Holthaus passes out tassels as Seniors practice for baccalaureate services.

Baseball Bulldogs Face Disappointing Season “Mediocre” was the word to describe this year’s baseball Bulldogs. Coach Steve Ford’s team wound up with a 12-13 record overall. The highlight of the year was defeating the number one team in the area, O'Fallon. The Dogs came in second in the conference with an 8-6 record behind O'Fallon. Outstanding individuals on the team were Randy Manley and Dale Hastings. Randy's .365 batting average made him the top hurler on the squad. Dale was also the leading RBI man with 16. Shortstop Rod Zobrist contributed another outstanding statistic by striking out only six times in 67 times at bat. 4 Third baseman Mike Bickline follows through on a throw to home plate. + Brian “Willie” Schumacher one of the best first baseman in the conference prepares to stroke the ball for a hit. + 4 Left fielder and ace reliever Mike Holzinger takes a few prac- tice swings before the game.

Thinclads Race to Outstanding Season Highland fielded one of its strongest track and field teams in several years, thanks to a horde of talented underclassmen and two determined seniors. The thinclads fought to a third place finish in the con- ference and compiled a 13-4 record in dual and triangular meets. During the course of the season, the HHS record book received several new entries. Leading the way was Greg Frey, who set a record in the 880 with a time of 1:58.7 and another in the mile with a 4:29.6 clocking. Keith Giger, a star in three events, extended his own record in the triple jump to 44-6 and tied the record in the 440 with a :51.1 time. A new mark was set in the 440 relay as Dale Siever, Keith Giger, Terry Aschbacher and Andy Perkins com- bined for a 45.3 time. Dave Giger set a new record with a :42.2 clocking in the 330 low hurdles and Andy Perkins tied the 100 yard dash mark with a time of :10.2. And finally David Trout, Alan Strackeljahn, Dirk Wilkinson and Bob Boyer set a new mark of 9:19.1 in the two mile relay. ie Sas Dave Giger, only a freshman, developed a hurdling style second to none and set a record in the 330 low hurdles. +- Carl Strackeljahn ran a grueling double, both the mile and two mile, in Bulldog track meets. 4 Wayne Hundsdorfer flings his body over the bar in an effort to pick ‘up some valuable points. + Keith Dye, Highland’s best in the shot put, sends the 12 pound ball on its way. «+- + TRACK TEAM FRONT: D.

Even though they lost five out of seven starters from last year’s team, Coach Larry Iftner’s young netmen managed to piece together its fifth straight winning season in a row with a 7-6 record. Kevin Foederer was the anchoring senior on a team composed of underclassmen, Kevin would up with a 7-6 record in singles and 3-2 in doubles.

Underclassmen Enjoy Good Sports Year It was a very good year indeed for underclassmen in sports. With relatively few seniors on the rosters of the varsity squads, much was expected of the un- derclassmen and they came through. There were un- derclassmen on the starting lineup of every varsity team, except basketball; and those underclassmen helped HHS to second in the conference all-sports der- by, behind Mascoutah. When not involved in varsity competition, un- derclassmen athletes had numerous JV, sophomore and freshman teams to play on and sharpen their skills.

Girls Earn Varsity Honors Females altered the tradition of the HHS annual athletic banquet with the addition of girls tennis and track as varsity sports. With these additions females would now be able to attend the banquet with their parents and be recognized along with the members of other varsity sports. Members of all HHS varsity teams were in- troduced and some were recognized for outstanding achievement. Television sportscaster, Bob Buck talked about various sports topics including his opinions on girls athletics in school. He also answered questions from the audience about any topic from baseball to hockey. 4 Sportscaster Bob Buck was the speaker at this year’s athletic banquet. 4 Mr. Ford recognizes Randy Manley for be- ing an outstanding catcher for Highland’s baseball team. + Tammy Ritzheimer introduces her teammates on the girls tennis team. ‘Zob’ Tops Athletes Only the highest of superlatives are fitting for athlete of the year Rod Zobrist. The winner of seven letters, Rod starred in cross country, basketball and baseball. Nicknamed the “Blond Bomber” by the press, Rod was at his best on the basketball court. He had the ability to do the seemingly impossible and do it with ease. He was a complete player, both offensively and defensively, and his talents got him named to numerous all-star teams. One sport, however, does not make one athlete of the year. Hard work and dedication made Rod a mainstay on the cross country team for three years and on the baseball field he was a two year starter as well as co-captain his senior year. 4 Rod was one of those natural athletes who excelled at all sports. Fall found “Zob” competing in grueling cross country races. 4 The leader of the 1974-75 basketball Bulldogs, Rod accepts the second place trophy for the team at the Litchfield tourney.

Today’s Dreams Tomorrow's Realities For years it was only talked about. Something for the future. Twice it was rejected. Something we could do without. Then at last the bond issue for the new high school passed! Reams of paper containing hun- dreds of ideas, figures, estimates, projections passed back and forth. Finally ideas emerged as blueprints from which construction would begin. Contracts were let. Early in April construction machinery and equip- ment began moving earth in mysterious patterns. It was too late for the classes of °75 and 76. They looked with envy upon their younger classmates who would be among the first to graduate from the new high school. cor CAPITAL DEVELOPMENT KORTE CONST. CO. INC.
