This left 17 other courses relating to social science, English, business, mathe- matics, and physical education open to summer school participants. Driver’s education decreased from four to two classes, and the 281 students registered for the course paid a 50 dollar fee. The first of its kind, the fee helped to cover the cost of the program.

Division pages introduced the unique reor- ganization of the book’s contents, decreasing from five to two divisions. The titles of the division pages also changed, placing greater emphasis on the theme. Theme development copy in the opening section expanded from four to six pages, concentrating on students ' quotes, students’ involvement in community affairs, and students’ school activities. A panel of three duotone pictures litho- typed on a 100% sky blue cloth covering ex- pressed the theme, THE MOVEMENT, on the cover. The title pages and tw o division pages further developed this idea by continuing the same picture pattern, using duotones, the sky blue background, and employing reverse print- ing. Lettering on these pages were provided by Mr. Bert Poi, graphic arts instructor. Both the cover and the interior pages were printed by Delmar Printing Company in Char- lotte, North Carolina. During the late summer months, major editors met with Mr. Edwin Hackleman and Mr. Michael Hackleman, com- pany representatives, to establish preliminary plans. The editors also consulted them throughout the year for further guidance in the production of the yearbook. While white Teton end sheets held the 192- page book together, different type sizes and faces of News Gothic, printed on 80 pound Warren enamel paper, appeared throughout the copy in the book. A no column layout was utilized, emphasizing bigger pictures and vari- ous size copy blocks. Mr. Gary Lipps of Walinger Studio, Chicago, Illinois worked with professional photograph- ers who supplied five color pictures for the opening section. They also furnished faculty and senior portraits, underclassmen pictures, cover and division page pictures, opening sec- tion pictures, group pictures, and candids of academics, sports, and personalities. Staff photographers, Seniors Mark Niemyski, Debbie Fraza, and Barb Dvorscak also provided cover and division page pictures and opening, class room, clubs, sports, and personalities candids. 188 Acknowledgements Editor-in-chief. Time-consuming, nerve-wrecking, a part of me. What is involved? Sacrifices, sleepless nights, missed deadlines. A Challenge to create a different book than last year ' s . . . striving for uniqueness — quotes, two divisions, reverse printing. The staff and I: combined energies working together to achieve satisfaction in the end product — the yearbook. A challenge . . . confronting me when I turn in late assignments; when I ask my parents for permission to stay home from school; when I turn down a date; when I face my advisor, Miss Pam Poracky, with a missed deadline, To these people I express my deepest thanks, for their understanding and concern. Without them, a challenge might never had been met. As for my personal involvement in the 1972 SHIELD, I have felt “the movement” within me. Many a night I have spent alone, struggling and fighting, to seek the right answers so that my challenge might be met. Becky Watson, editor Editor’s Page 189 Caught up in the twisting throng of moving feet. students progress through the day with another class coming to a close. Socially interacting with friends. Junior Michelle Ribicki relieves built up tensions of the school week while joining Saturday night activities. With the 18-year-old vote passed. Seniors Nancy Hilmes and Colleen Nolen involve themselves in registering for the May primary. 190 Closing Individuals take stands in search for answers Confused, questioning, a feeling of uncertainty. We grope for an answer as we ferret out the “why”. A Search for our identity is a conflict within us all . . . We try to take a stand — war, pollution, drugs. A troubled, controversial world; it is so difficult to understand. As we grow older we mature, and we face voting, inflation, responsibility. A search . . . leading us down different channels which forks from the traditional paths. The exploration is within ourselves, our school, and community. Through an involvement, an understanding, a change, and a struggle Highland students become incorporated in THE MOVEMENT. Escaping from books and tests, an English student alienates herself from the hectic rush of classrooms, finding solitude in a deserted hallway. Closing 191 THE MOVEMENT continues with individuals being swept up in the turmoil of the never-ceasing process. At times this movement may be difficult. We must have the courage, strength, and desire to continue — in search of an answer in search of ourselves . . 192 PAGE MISSING PAGE MISSING
