Ten years have passed, witnessing a kaleidoscope of people, progress, and change. Just as time influences history, years affect the school. A new decade is like a freshly ploughed field. The rich, dark soil promises a better growth of faith. and communication. The guiding rays of understanding nourish the staff of life — the students. The young plant a school nourishes is carefully prepared for survival in the world of the future. Observe the newly planted crop today while you examine these pages... 4 4 q A teacher affects eternity; he can never tell where his influence ends. Mr. Chaffee, Principal, and his Secretary, Mrs. Babcock Early morning finds our principal preparing for his appointed conferences. By discussing problems and guiding students, Mr. Chaffee hopes to develop a plenti- ful supply of active world citizens. This challenge will become a reality when both principal and student body work together as a unit. Busy next-door-neighbor, Mr. Brenner, checks absentee slips at the clinic door. The full-time job as school disciplinarian is also shouldered by Mr. Brenner. This team works steadily for the benefit of the community as they skillfully direct school affairs. Mrs..

During their monthly conferences they discuss and plan the district’s budget and policies. The meetings are led by Board President Robert S. Schmelzer. Vice-president, Mrs. Josephine Becks, Clerk, Mrs. Evelyn Brunskill, William H. Kelly, Jr., Thomas T. Thompson, and John A. Wiszt make the set nearly complete. The remaining member is the director of the Highland district schools, Superintendent Lewin O. Vermillion. As general spokesman he manages a very busy schedule. This is accomplished with the artful planning of his_ secretary-treasurer, Mrs. Lola Webster. As the basis of our school district, these people skillfully serve the community and its educational system. HIGHLAND SCHOOL BOARD — Bottom Row: Mr. Schmelzer, Mrs. Becks, Mrs. Brunskill.

Students working on special assignments and reports use the library extensively to obtain information on specific subjects. Other students take out an assortment of fiction and non-fiction for leisure reading and studying. The atmosphere in the library is one of quiet for studying or reading, and Mrs. South and her assistants keep it this way by cheerfully supervising and assisting the students. The guidance counselors work in many ways to serve the students. They administer testing programs, counsel, and assist in educational and occupational planning. Mrs. Myers, head guidance counselor, and her assistant, Mr. Burch, manage busy schedules as advisors. Their assistants aid them by running errands and filing. The guidance office gives uncertain students answers to their problems and helps others to plan for their careers and their future. 12 ACADEMICS Who so neglects learning in his youth, loses the past and is dead for the future. 14 SHOP The industrial arts department is gear- ed toward those students wishing to work in industry. They learn rewarding and necessary skills in the shop and are able to put them to use for the school. For example, the printing classes often print programs and newsletters. Among the cours es offered at Highland are elec- tronics, mechanical drawing, wood work- ing, auto service, and metals. HOME EC The homemaking class has become a place of fashion adventure, delicious aromas, and fun. All phases of home economics and consumer education are covered in the exten- Sive program. A noticeable increase in classroom sizes prompts Mrs. Tramonte to add that these girls have plenty of zip, and show a great potential for the future. SINGER FICK PRACTICE The objective of the secretarial department is to prepare students for future jobs as office workers. Each day Miss Carman presents a realistic office situation in class like those the girls will face some day as secretaries. Among the various activities is the use of office machinery. Each girl has an oppor- tunity to use the dictaphones, mimeograph, and calculator. This year new electric typewriters were purchased. The girls also practice the necessary skills, shorthand and typing. This course is an im- portant part of our vocational program and helps prepare tomorrow’s secretaries for their careers. The major aim of biology and chemistry classes is to encourage a friendly atmosphere for learning about the environment. The tremendous emphasis today’s people place on survival causes students to strive for a better understanding of the entire situation. Each class experiment and lecture concerns the study of living things and materials in the earth and its atmosphere. A group discussion of class experi- ments follows with added observations and opinions. The final result is a complete evaluation that can be used as a building block for more complex study. Other lessons are approached as the class and Mr. Temple together venture into the exciting chapters of todays world. L7 VOCAL MUSIC SENIOR CHOIR — Front Row: J. Wilcox, S. Good, S.

The Senior Choir is an organization under the direction of Mr. Ruddock whose goal is to increase musical interest and talent at Highland. The first performance of the year for the choir was the Inland Conference Choral Festival. The Christ- mas concert followed soon afterwards with the group singing “The Night before Christmas” and “Sleigh Bells.”’ In early February talented ensembles and soloists attended the County Solo and Ensemble Contest, bringing back with them a num- ber of coveted superiors. Some of these performers advanced to the state level and received high awards. The Spring Concert is probably the highlight of the year for the musical groups. The choir intermingled old favor- ites with the popular songs of the year. The delightful program ended with the stirring “Battle Hymn of the Republic.” The last act of the choir is to sing at the Baccalaureate Services each year for the seniors. The graduating seniors are joined by the new members in a final performance together. SENIOR CHOIR GIRLS’ ENSEMBLE — First Row: S. Good, S. Ensworth, C. Brown, M. Russell. Second Row: C. Yokum, L.

Judging by their voices and enthusiasm the General Mixed chorus, Girls’ Glee, and Men’s Glee are taking heed of the lyrics to the “29th Street Bridge Song.” The Freshmen and Sophomores in the General Mixed Chorus still believe in magic as testified by “Puff, the Magic Dragon.” While the Men’s Glee vocalize in tunes of a hardier nature as typified in “Ride the Char- iot” and “Winter Wonderland.” The three part Girls’ Glee used in their format the con- temporary and meaningful “My Way” and the light-hearted “Little Bird.” These multi- talented groups perform at the Christmas and Spring Concerts not only as groups, but also with selected members in ensembles. 20 GIRLS’ GLEE — Front Row: B.

The main objectives of the club are to develop a respect for education’s role in job skills and to reach an understanding of the individual’s responsibilities in his society. Club members have participated in a colorful procession of soc-hops, car washes, club re- freshment sales, and bowling tournaments. The highlight of the year is the Employer- Employee Banquet. This event is designed to honor outstanding student employees and their employers. Trophies, certificates and a festive dinner climax this gala occasion. 28 SPORTS Put your shoulder to the wheel. 29 FOOTBALL 1970 “HORNETS” VARSITY SQUAD—1970 — Front Row: M. Bures, B. Winters, J.

Highland’s chapter, under the guid- ance of Mrs. Neff, sponsored a soc-hop and bake sale and assisted in decorating the Medina Hospital at Christmas and hanging the greens in Medina Square. Other activities included slumber parties, swimming at Copley, and selling Highland wind-breakers. 54 for its members, the G.A.A. also donated a mini-tramp and gymnastic belts to the girls’ physical education classes. Those two popular pieces of equipment quickly added more enjoyment to the class. Under the leadership of Miss Gowe, this club has certainly achieved its purpose of promoting fun for girls through sports. Team member dribbles in for a lay-up.

Under the leadership of Miss Chiaramonte, the club presented a fine show to its audience. Another activity in which many club members were able to participate was the Kent State University workshop. Students learned more about the techniques of acting from experienced actors. In the future the club hopes to perform a few short plays and attend others. Students interested in acting join the club to learn more about drama and to gain experience in the field. DRAMA CLUB OFFICERS — M. A. Chodera, Pres.; S. Papp, V.P.; Miss Chiaramonte, Advisor; M.

Juris, Art Editor; M. Gaj, Business Manager. The Highland annual staff is a closely-knit organ- ization whose main goal is to present an accurate account of the school year’s activities. The club in operation can be compared to a wheel. The head editor is the hub, a center of advice and guidance. From the hub radiate the several spokes. These spokes are the sub-editors in divisions of art, copy, advertizing, and business. The rim of the wheel is made of numerous workers whose job is to con- tribute their share of work and information about various clubs, sports, and people. With the aid of the advisor, Mrs. Glick, the result is a wheel running on a smooth and steady path.

Facing the stands, they were introduced to the crowd. The pre-game festivities ended with the traditional crowning of the queen by Don Tomko and kisses from the co-captains. A very exciting and memorable homecoming game was about to begin. Two groups of anticipating and hopeful fans and two very skillful and deter- mined teams were prepared for the game. The mighty Hornets faced the Fireland Falcons in this year’s most challenging Inland Conference contest. A dazzling performance by thé band and major- ettes marked the half with a Highland lead at 8-6. The tension mounted during the second half with the cheerleaders leading shouts of encouragement for the team. The last seconds of the game brought a final score of 14-14.

Soft music, velvet dresses in an array of colors, and flowers are all a part of the nostalgia-filled atmosphere in the delightfully decorated gym which had been transformed into a hugh park with gardens. As a conclusion the court and Queen Celeste were pre- sented and danced the Queen’s dance. PROM CTIVITIES Sete ies Mi 106 “A TIME Sunshine greeted those who played putt-putt golf while others of the Juniors and Seniors preferred to bowl or swim as the 1971 Prom began. Capping the activities was a buffet-style banquet located in a “castle,” indicative of the Romeo and Juliet theme. ‘““A Time for Us” became the password for all of the many Juniors who worked at waving the magic wand that transferred the gym into a mysterious medieval castle and garden. The next evening every girl’s dream came true as her knight in shinning armor escorted her to the dance. Long after the yellow and pink crepe streamers have fallen to the floor, many nostalgic memories will remain of these two days. 107 108 SENIOR CLASS PLA “TEN LITTLE INDIANS” CAST — Front: G.

An air of mystery and intrigue flavored this year’s senior class play, “Ten Little Indians.” An isolated island cabin and the lives of ten bewildered people are interwoven in a diabolical plot of insane justice. A record’s mysterious message, a strangely ap- propriate poem, and ten stuffed Indian dolls are the only clues to the real meaning of the visitors’ invita- STAGE CREW — First Row: B. Young, D.

VALEDICTORIANS Ida Helen Juris Nadine Irene Lorman Virginia Ann Schreiner 119 = = Z eo = eo © Z Ga = = © © The Sunday preceding Commencement, Baccalaur- eate, acts as a catalyst in preparing the Class of 1971 for the memory-filled days immediately ahead. Rev. Harold G. Winter presented the message to the graduat- ing Seniors and their parents and friends at this non- denominational service in which Reverends Ribbe, Hart, and Father Kusiak also took part as representatives of neighboring churches. While special music was provided by the Chapel Choir, it is hoped that every Senior paused in this hectic, exciting moment in his life to prepare himself for his future role in America’s development. ee PERETTI EEA RAEN ee UR en biiishsbesss sos: AONE ANENE The nineteenth annual Commencement marked the first of the many milestones the 148 graduating Sen- iors will face throughout their lives. After a fun-filled week of practices, Wednesday night represented the pinnacle of the past 12 years of education. Decked in navy blue and white robes to the tune of ‘Pomp and Circumstance” the class not only were presented their diplomas but special awards were also given to those Seniors who distinguished themselves for their contributions to the school. While Senator Ocasek addressed the assembly, members of the class itself took part in the proceedings. Scholastically, the Violet Richey Award went to the three valedictorians: Ida Juris, Nadine Lorman, and Virginia Schreiner, and to Tanner Allis who represented Highland in the biology and chemistry scholarship tests. The Activity Awards went to Jeff Cox and Jeannie Weidanz for their out- standing contributions to clubs and various organ- izations. The Highland Council Scholarship designated to an outstanding senior planning to go into teaching was received by Nadine Lorman. In athletics the Wade Ormsby Jr. Award, based on excellence in athletics, dramatics, scholarship, and social well-being, went to Jim Barron. The Charles Hardman Award, going to the best all-around senior athlete, was given to Don Tomko. The John Philip Sousa Award was presented to Lorie Glasia and Virginia Schreiner as outstanding bandsmen while the Chopin Award went to Jeannie Weidanz for her contributions on the piano as a soloist and accompanist. The Senior class has a right to be proud! This truly is “a time for us.” 22 SENIOR DIRECTORY Adams, Lynn Marie — “Lynne” — Chorus, Drama Club, Glee, Office Help, Ski Club President, Student Council Adams, Steven Lowell — Mr. Kenmore” — Chorus, Drama Club, Glee, Ensemble, Football, Junior Play, Ski Club, Varsity H Allis, Clarence Tanner — ‘‘Cacho” — Junior Play, Latin Club Treasurer, N.

We, the Staff, offer you this book in the sincere desire to report an ac- curate picture of H.H.S. We hope that in years to come, you will cherish mem- ories as they are represented here. As for the Seniors, we hope the book will be extra special, because it is evidence of that precious time of life — the flowering of youth into young adulthood. For the rest of you, it is a glimpse into the future and a memory of the past.
