Probably the biggest surprise ofthe year was the Novem- ber l7 Party, given by the faculty and administration. This followed a rather dismal football season, during which time the players leamed to accept defeat and the criticism from those who think they know --the criticism that invariably accompanies defeat. During the year, we watched the con- struction of the high school wing to the Jefferson building, thinking how nice for the juniors who will be seniors in it next year. A welcome break in the year was a long 17-day Christmas vacation. Some thought it was too long, but the majority seemed to feel it was just great. uf' -4 EVELYN LOCKE ' 4 .,, 2? -If 'f' , '- y L --N-l DICK LYBECK YVONNE MALLORY JOYCE MC CLINTOCK V F se.

The class was split as to which one we should vote for--certainly not an unusual situation! But one was chosen. During Janu- ary Mrs. McLaughlin went around tapping seniors on the shoulder and asking if she could measure them for their caps and gowns. A sure sign that time was passing. We had to elect graduation and baccalaureate speakers--another major de- cision. Between practicing the lock step for graduation and finishing all school work, we planned our picnic. All of this certainly worth remembering. But above all these things mentioned, this past week will definitely rate highest in my memories. Our last high school dance, the Prom, the senior picnic, baccalaureate-- and now, graduation. But whatnext? After tonight we'1l be on our own--some of us partially and some entirely. Some of us will go on to college: some ofuswillfind jobs. Many ofthe boys willspend some time with Uncle Sam, and many of the girls are al- ready wearing diamonds to indicate their future plans. Well, there's the signal. When Pomp and Circum- stance starts, we start. Now 1et's see, was it the LEFT foot?

My junior year seemed to whiz by. I think it was definitely the busiest year. Our main project was raising money to finance the Prom. We had several money-making schemes such as after-the-game dances and chore day. We certainly can't discount class dues, although there were those ln the class who tried! Before we knew it, it was time to begin planning. What date? Where? Who will play? Theme? Menu? Decorations? Chaperones? Will our hard-earned treasure hold out? And as the big day approached, a million more questions popped up, but somehow everything worked out all right. We who worked on the Prom, and there were many, barely managed to stay awake all through the night. Now that it's over, we look back on it as fun, but at the time--not so! Graduation ended the school year and for some of us it was a sad experience. It made us abruptly aware of the fact that we ourselves had only one more year!

Sup , in .93e ized It was during my sophomore year that I realized what we, as a class, would be confronted with during our junior year. The Sock Hop was our big contribution to the social calendar atIHS, and it was lots of hard work! We wanted it to be a big success, not only for the profit we hoped to make, but for the credit we'd be given by the rest of the school. In some respectsthe sophomore year was a tough one. We weren't upperclassmen yet, but still, we felt that we knew a little more than the 1ow1y freshmen --we were in a sort of void. We had no real importance. Toward the end of the year we picked out our class rings in order to have them at the be- ginning of next year. This made that next year seem a little nearer. X..

How well I remember entering high school, no doubt feeling every bit as nervous as any other freshman. As I roam- ed through the halls, I won- dered if I'd ever get used to all the bells, bells, bells-- and the upperclassmen. My locker combination really delayed me, and I thought I'd never be able to make a class on time! But soon I was dialing my combination like a pro and the whole situation was beginning to seem less a dash. The first dance was exciting, but by the second semester, dances were old stuff. Our first experience at building a float for Homecoming cer- tainly was just that--an experience! At Christmas time my first formal, and after Christmas and a few weeks of classes, semester exams for the first time, Suddenly I realized that at last I belonged here, and the last half of the year zipped by. It was a year of change and new ex- periences, but a year I'll never forget. fheo Qhabw tt ,Y ,nw I Kathleen Aldrich 5. f 4 M V, Fern Avis I 3 6 X6 4 U Q 61 Dale Barth 15's PES, I-f my Behrens C V , R T' :fi H ,.

This search was set off by a book entitled WHY JOHNNY CAN'T READ, and it started a heated controversy among educators. Just recently another puzzle developed--why Johnny can't add. And already I can see subsequent issues--why Johnny doesn't know the funda- mentals ofscience, or why Johnny isn't a good citizen. There are critics in the field of education, just as there are critics in almost every field. It's these education critics who attack schools and school personnel so unmercifully. But in spite of this, students continue to graduate, they continue to enter into society and make a place for themselves--no matter how small--and surprisingly, the illiteracy rate continues to decrease. We seniors at Independence High School were fortunate in having a well-qualified faculty and a variety of subjects from which to choose.

Through the art course, vocal music and band we could secure a background for the fine arts. Physical education helped keep us in good physical condi- tion. ln spite of all the complaints and even the jokes we've made about ourschool system, if honest, we'1l have to admit that those of us who wanted to learn had our chance. Sure, some of us are weakerinonesuhjectthanan- other, some of us wasted a year or two, but for any of us who wanted a high school education, the faculty was here to help us get it. So maybe the reason Johnny can't read is because Johnny didn't want to read. A word to all underclassmen: reread this, using the present tense.

High school helped, but with the same apathy that had been prevalent all year. The spring party, Twirp Nite, was held as usual, and as usual, girlslurked behind doors and in corners for weeks in advance, trying to pluck up enough courage to nab the One as hc unsuspectingly walked by and to invite hint. Some succeeded, some didn't, but isn't that always the way? By the same token, what girlwho wenton the food drive near Thanksgiving will ever forget the cold, numb feet gotten from walking up one block and down the other? Evenafter we saw the vast ac- cumulation of our efforts, our feetwere still just as cold, but for a good cause, we decided. , .Slpizit Cheerleading holds many memories, Never to befor- gotten are the cramped rides to out-of-town games, the hur- ried conferences prior to each pep meeting, the butterflies that seem to cut capers in our stomachs before every game, the disappointment of leading few fans and the thrill of de- feating a tough team. The sheer enjoyment of leading yells far offsets the little displeasures and makes every minute of cheerleading worthwhile. ra' ' Qu: Seto, .Mew .Thee Early in the moming before any of us were really awake, we piled into cars and headed for Marion. Or it could have been Cedar Falls or Tipton, These were the sites of the three play days at which we were represented by a part of our group. After arriving without incident, we spent the day engaged in various contests such as volley- ball and basketball It was especially nice to be able to swim in indoor pools at Cedar Falls and Tipton, We won some of our contests and Iost some. Nevertheless, it was interesting experience for all of us. We met many girls. Some of us even acquired pen pals through those brief acquaintances. Attendance at regular weekly meetings and participation in at least one play day made us eligible for chenille letters at the end of the year.

This was always a question -- and will continue to be until someone develops a foolproof method for computing the amount of copy that will fit in a column inch. find we always had the problem of keeping in the good graves of our public -- the student body, A typical and often-heard complaint was, Why do you always use the same names?

So if you were one of this legion of the lost, you sat and stared at a blank page and finally -- finally something vame. End- less choices had to be made-- this picture against that one.

The stained glass windows at Christmastime and the huge white rabbit for Easter were projects that everyone will remember. The 0nCe'a'W9Ck mC9fif1S!S were well attended. Often we'd become so engrossed that we'd stay longer than planned. Conversation centered around everything from antiques to what color to paint what. Somewhere along the line, we developed a sense of teamwork and fellowship that will be remembered with pleasure and satisfaction, 5.2.0. Sn, , ' Z lnteweot We boys who belong to Future Farmers of America can often be spotted by our blue corduroy jackets. For those of us considering farmingas a life's work, FFA is worthwhile as it gives us an opportunity to develop our interest in the field. Looking back over my experiences with the club, I think the hardest job I had was to compile my record book to accompany my project. Personally, I'd always wait till the last minute to begin mine and then have to work like mad to finish it on time. Some of us entered our baby beef and hog projects in judging contests, We often visited farms to make corn checks. We also visited the experimental station north of town. But don't get the idea that FFA was all work. We also had lots of fun at parties and hay- rides. During the winter, we formed a basketball team and played other groups in the area. Annual trips to the Cattle Congress and the State FFA Convention were highlights not to be forgotten, lt's all been a most enjoyable experience.

In spite of all the pre-performance ,it- ters, the production went smoothly and, we felt, successfully. Because of the fact that the setting for the play was Alaska, the props committee hunted high and low for bear-skin coats, snow shoes and other cold weather gear. It's surprising what can be found in crowded attics. A twtezti pole and authentic Hak- lulfs were the two unattainable itettps. One creative ixenzber of the cast supplied the totutti pole. Eie made it! But no one ever came up with the authen- tic muklults. Incidentally, the play was written by Xi.: t I Bach, noted Iowa writer and theologian. l 41' Everything and everybody has ups and downs and the IHS band is no exception, Sometimes we've probably thought the scale was a little lop-sided, but when we really stop to think back, this year has been in interesting, if not exciting one. The muddy football field we waded through three times a week during, football season getting the half time show to click, made us groan and grumble especmlly when we cleaned our shoes.

We all were dis- appointed the night of the first home football game, We were to show off our new uniforms for the first time. But as fate would have it, that was the night the lightning flashed and the thunder rolled and the rains came, That was the night we scurried back across town to the high school to hand our uniforms back in the uniform closet without doing the half-time show. Then there were the door-to-door candy sales, the sandwich stands and check rooms at the basketball games, theticket sale campaigns and the band carnival. It was through these small projects that we made the money to finish paying for our new uniforms. be forgotten were the contests, county and WaMaC band festivals, the Homecoming student teachers, Monday group lessons and Mr. Mi11er's new son David Emerson. had a lot of disappointments, a lot of successes, a lot of ups and downs, but when we reallv stop to think about it -- it WAS worth it!

Hli-.Thgf Mafceo, ' mac, , You've all heard of clubs that cry for funds to fill their embarrassingly empty treasuries, but have you ever heard of a club that is extremely well-fixed financially and still spends next to nothing? That is the case with Bi-Phy-Chem. Near Christmastime we embarked on a candle-making project, With a very slight overhead, we made Christmas candles and more Christmas candles. The market was good, and we earned a huge profitg hence, all the money. One member of our group distinguished himself by con- structing a walking robot. His project was written up in sev- eral large newspapers. This is an example of what can be done by scientific-minded students who have plenty of ambition and some ingenuity.

We hosted the first County Vocal Festival in the spring. The WaMaC Vocal Festival was at Marion, as was the group contest. There was the realization among us seniors that the trip to the latter via school bus would be our last.
