Laverne High School - Tiger Roar Yearbook (Laverne, OK)

Text from Pages 1 - 120 of the 1970 volume:

(iiijer flnar Annual 19711 publislu'h flji (the UalH'rni' Annual $ taff fa itenu' (Oklahoma SCHOOL School is a wonderful place to be! You meet all your friends here - and your enemies too. But it gives you a sense of worth in your heart; And if people don’t think too highly of you. You always have yourself to wonder with; And if you can’t make the grade. You can always try next year again. - Donald Swallow Be it i rat inn In the fall of 1935 a young lady full of determination entered the halls of LHS seeking the opportunity to teach. For twenty-one years Mrs. Helen Long has taught sewing, cooking, child care, housing, and other vital courses to two generations. One of Mrs. Long’s goals was to establish the first FHA in Laveme which has become the largest chapter in the district. Mrs. Long has not only been a teacher - she has been a good friend to many of her students. Mrs. Long enjoys playing bridge and fishing. She plans to be at the mouth of the Klamath River to salmon fish this year. lU'itir citimi Mrs. Sarah Moore joined the Laverne faculty in 1954, teaching junior and senior high math and geography. During the 1961- 62 term she became high school librarian. She also taught read- ing on the junior and senior high level. Mrs. Moore's teaching career extented through 2 years at Knowles, 13 years at Rosston, and 15 years at Laverne. Due to Mrs. Moore’s dedicated efforts, the Laverne school library is now one of the finest in North- west Oklahoma. Of special value to students is the bound volume section of periodical literature. She organized the library pat- terned after accepted national library standards so that graduates could make the high school-to- college transition easier. fter retirement, Mrs. Moore intends to read in depth many of the books she has only had time to scan in her busy years as LHS librarian. This year saw the old high school, constructed in 1925, sold and dismantled. A board-appointed advisory building committee studied future building needs. Fifty-six units of study are accredited for our school which grew with an- nexation to us by Rosston, May, Clearlake, and Overstreet, making a school district of more than six hundred seventy square miles and a taxable wealth of approximately thirteen million dollars. The grade school playground was blacktopped, and an addition was made to the agricultural bam. Football district championship went to the football team. Basketball, track, and baseball brought additional honors. The 4-H Club won district and state awards. The FFA and FHA members represented us well. Music honors brought additional pride to our school. Although we’ve come a long way in the last few years, much remains to be done with the future challenge resting on younger shoulders. I feel confident youth will meet the responsibilities and needs of its generation. A b ministrat inn Mr. Shackelford and Mr. Zollinger discussed future building plans. IsUl t SCHOOL BOARD Gale Hart enjoyed her office work. These busy citizens worked with school ad- ministrators to coordinate an effective school program. LEFT TO RIGHT: Everett Whisen- hunt, C. W. Robertson. Fred R. Wheeler - Pres., and Claude Zollinger. SEATED is Cecil Mitchell. It has been a pleasure to work with you during this school year. My congratulations to you on your many accomplishments. At this time may 1 remind you who are graduating that you are commencing to take upon yourselves the obligations of citizen- ship in the greatest country in the world; that this citizenship demands obedience to its laws, truthfulness to its teachings, and faith in its institutions. So long as you shall live, you will be representative of LHS. May the memories evoked by the pages of this yearbook always be pleasant ones, and may your pride in your Alma Mater never diminish. May all the good things of life always be yours.

They become a way of life for LHS, and when it's over a certain emptiness is felt in their hearts. EIGHTH GRADE PRESIDENT 12 JUNIOR PRESIDENT Each class worked together and found self satisfaction plus never to-be-forgotten friends. Joyful times and thoughtful moments were imprinted in memory. Leaving their classes was difficult, but each student left with pride of having the best class.

The organizations and activities of LHS provided this opportunity. School spirit, fellowship, and respect for each other were outgrowths of these groups. For instance, the cheerleaders shown on this page practiced extra hours not only after school but during the summer months. Their individual ideas and abilities contributed to the whole group. The en- thusiasm shown by such LHS representatives could not help but be reflected in all other areas of the Tiger Community. An original skit was presented at each pep assembly by the cheerleaders. 44 Annual j 'taff Sonrjjam-eit “711” Sank ADVISOR - Mrs. Bockelman EDITOR - Alan Hennigh SALES MANAGERS - Vicki Kimberlin and Midge Zetterberg ADVERTISING MANAGERS - Patrece Carlisle and Jerry Nine Jolena Brown Steven Cook Gary Friend Bobby Gibson Gayle Hicks Linda Jett Mike Karns Connie Lively Dee Long Karen O'Hair Don Sparks STAFF GOODE CONSTRUCTION CO.

A 1956 Northwestern State College graduate with a BA degree in social studies, Huffman spent the next year as assistant coach with then head Coach Earl Kilmer. The year 1956-57 marked the beginning of a Huffman winning streak which included four State finalist tourney teams: 1956-57, 57-58, 61-62, and 63-64.

Two players on this team went on to further stardom: one as Miss America of 1967, Jane (Jayroe) Peterson, and one as an All-American member of the Hutcherson Flying Queens who also played on the United States Olympic team in the Pan-American games and the Yugoslavia World Tournament, Lola (Ham) Mundell. The following years brought no more tries at the State trophy, but Huffman brought his teams to regional wins in 1965-66, 66-67, 68-69, and Area in 69-70. He served as the winning West All-State coach in 1965-66. His coach- ing career has closed on a proud note: 248 wins - 74 losses. Along with coaching, Huffman pursued a deep interest in counseling with a Master’s Degree in Education with em- phasis on counseling in 1964. Of Huffman Laverne Principal Earl Kilmer said, He taught a sense of leadership and sportsmanship to his players that will remain with them the rest of their lives. M (1 cants 05 trie STANDING: B.

Hund- reds of people rushed to the scene, but they could only look on. The city fire system was out of order that week and already the blaze had spread to a raging flame. All the school walls were left standing with the exception of the south wall. On April 21, 1925, a bond election carried. S. S. Strong of Beaver was awarded the contract for the erection of a new building for $38,000. The brick from the burned building was cleaned by volunteer townspeople and used again. According to the contract, the new building would contain seven class rooms in addition to recreation rooms, of- fices, halls, etc., an auditorium and gymnasium and basement. On August 25, 1925, the corner stone of Laverne's new school was laid at a Masonic ceremony by Grand Lodge Of- ficers. This year the 1925 comer stone was taken out and placed permanently in the Masonic Lodge as the old build- ing was to be torn down. December 14, 1925, the new building was officially dedicated in less than nine months from the fire to its comple- tion. Until this time classes had met in homes, churches, and the lodge hall. In 1939 a grade building, still in use, was added to the school facilities, relieving the crowded high school which had been used by both grade and high school students for 14 years. In 1960 a new high school was erected. The old building was then used for the sixth grade and a few high school classes. In the fall of 1969, destruction of the 1925 building was begun and was completed in the spring of 1970. Architectural plans for a new auditorium were drawn by Locke, Wright, and Foster of Oklahoma City to be erected on the cleared site. A construction contract will be let in September of 1970. The next building planned will then be a new gymnasium to be built as soon as possible. iCmikeh Jfnrhutrit (In Sutti' 5s LINK ALLEY - Pres. Pisces TOMMY DAVE Vice-pres. Taurus FRANKIE FOOTE - Sec.

As Seniors of 1970, we realize that our lives will be what we make them. No amount of pull from the stars will make us successes or failures. At Laveme High, we have been taught to follow the bright stars of honesty, enthusiasm, curiosity, search for knowledge, and fellowship.

Each day is a new page and each year a new chapter. A person must plan each page carefully, because how the book falls together in later chapters will be determined by what a person puts in the beginning pages. Once you start the books of life, however, there is no way of changing what you put in the front of it. After you complete one page, it is there to stay and can be read and told over and over. The beginning of the book is by far the most important but also the most difficult to handle. Once a person gets through this part, providing he gets off to a clean start, the rest seems easy and he will be able to breeze right through it. Last of all, most books that I have read which had good beginnings seemed to keep getting better and better. Life can also follow this pattern if the writer wishes. - Alan Hennigh Life is like a book. When you open a book, it is the same as being born. It is the start of a new experience in both instances. Every chapter will be a new age for you in your life. Reading through the book would be like growing up. Reading through, you will find places you'll enjoy a great deal as in life, and other places which aren't so enjoyable. As you read, you should be getting older and wiser. By the time you are through with the book, your great life will have ended. You will have grown older, wiser, and had a great time experiencing life just as you would have reading a book. So you see that a book can be your life from end to end - starting life when you open the book and dying when the book is closed. - Bobby Sumpter We Are An hi H minting Linda Lively and Ken Seeger JUNIOR MARSHALS (Class m 1970 (fmnmenrement (Tiu'sbait.
