Each student of the high school is an individual person, with his own personality, talents, and am- bitions, The school attempts to provide an environ- ment in which each person can develop to his great- est potentiality, America is great because it does for all of its people what the school is doing for its students. America presents the greatest opportunity the World has ever known for man to fulfill the God-given qualities which are his birthright. The students of Lindsay High School multiplied by x times are America itself. The Comet staff, in recording the events and participants of the 1955- 55 school year, are truly presenting-e-America Is For You.

Through the pages of this annual, for example, can be seen the variety of interests and activities which characterize our school. Similarly, America does not have one meaning, but many. Our greatness as a nation is not easily defined, but is composed, characterized, and strengthened by its multiplicity. lt is this diversity which makes available to us 1.-.al U-M 4 , v-mfs mix l . , ' 3 A V. J -U ,anti i '.,,',, it V almost unlimited opportunities, and our undimin- ished belief in democracy keeps us cognizant of the variety of talent available in each individual. Our school, reflecting as it does, our national pattern offers to each of us distinctive opportu- nities for self-realization. To the Seniors I offer my congratulations and the hope that they and our nation will continue to grow and develop through diversity. WILLIAM KINGSLEY Principal gudgnl 0U2I'I1lI'leH,i As we end this year of '55-'56 we are grateful for the American way of living which is best portrayed in school life, To be able to organize and carry out our own student government gives us the feeling of American politicians at work. This year the student cabinet has worked hard to make it a better year. Our school was efficiently represented at the Governors Traffic Safety Council, C.A,S.C. meetings, and journalism conventions. The student cabinet sent a ten dollar CARE package, sponsored the Christmas formal, passed the Echoing L creed, and did many other out- standing things which you have seen this year. l wish to extend special thanks to Mr. Kingsley, our ad- viser, who helped us plan our exciting rallies, the wonder- ful dances, and interesting meetings, Now that the year is over, I hope that we will be better citizens because of our training in the student cabinet. May next year's council carry on the good work.

For some ot us that will continue our educa- tion in the sciences and engineering, the solid foundation We have had in high school mathe- matics will enable us to supply the United States with the technical know-how that has in the past made her a great and strong mili- tary and industrial power.

Why is the principal ques- tion in science and these two men have an- swered this query many times on many sub- jects. What is matter? Why does iron rust? What is the meaning of chemical formulae such as H2SO4 or C'0H'2O4? These are a few of the many explained, Topi Davzd, Andnia, Richard, and Ion set up their apparatus while experimenting for chlor- ine gas in chemistry.

Under the direction of Miss Hostetter, Mrs, Ketelsen, Mr, Dawe, and Miss Miller, even the least interested ac- quired a nodding acquaintance with the parts of speech. Skills were prac- ticed by writing speeches, essays, poems, and book reports along with working on the Echoing L, the campus newspaper, Classes studied the works of great writers in reading classics of English literature and American writers were never overlooked.

Lett Mr. Dawes world history class learned the story of mankind Right. The U. S. history students listened intently as Mr, Mason lec- tured cn nationwide events. The study of people, their governments, and their cultures is an essential part of the American educa- tional system. Our high school presents a variety of courses in these fields. Social living, a required course for freshmen, covers a general study of people as well as first aid, driver education, and health. There are two different history classes available to Lindsay High students. Cne is a required course in United States history for juniors. World history is an elective Course Open to sophomores, juniors, and seniors, although the majority are sophomores. The senior problems class has done cr variety of X-. A things this year. The first semester was taken up with a study of the problems which confront the American public: safety, housing, population, relig- ion, delinquency, education, etc. The second semes- ter was review of California history and govern- ment, along with other projects such as the career day at Porterville junior College. Americas policy of good will depends to a large degree on the education of young people in the field of social studies. It is through this medium that we learn to understand people and progress toward a peaceful world.

The band put on a ser- ies of distinctive half time shows at football games, and drew much acclaim for its perform- ances, A special attrac- tion at all rallies and at m a n y other functions were the L,H.S. pep band and dance band. One of the big occas- ions of the year was the trip to Disneyland. ' One of the highlights of the music depart- ment this year was the chorus festival at Lind- say High School. Under the direction of Richard K. Motter, the chorus was also featured in various social events in neighboring communi- ties and with the band, presentedtheband and chorus a n n u al show. 2' X x moderno ln'-vt Variety is tize Key note in the Wide range of courses offered in the art department. Gils, watercolors, cer- amics, cmd le a t li e r crafts are but a few of the phases emphasized during the year. Under excellent train- ing, talent and natural ability in different forms of art are quickly no- ticed and given special Jttention. Students with- out previous art train- ing find themselves en- joying first year art and the popular arts and crafts courses.

The beginning classes under the direc- tion of Mrs. Minor, try their ability at sew- ing during the first semester, They start with something simple such as a gathered skirt, and end up with a dress or an article equally difficult. The second semester is occupied with learning to cook. An important phase of this is learning how to use left-overs. Mrs, Brown is in charge of the advanced homemaking classes which follow the same pattern in reverse as the beginners, except for more difficult work, l-lomemaking is an important part of every girls education. lt provides her not only with the knowledge of how to run a home smoothly, but also with confidence that she can do it successfully Top: Margaret, Linda Cowger and Linda Fox were three of the cooks in homemaking.

The farmers are in politics over farm subsidies and Wage problems, Farming has been improving over the years beginning with the old wooden plow up to the modern diesel tractor. The ag mechanics and ag science courses at Lindsay are designed to help the future farmer achieve a better crop with less money and less effort, The students have their own orange trees or have another regular home project on which they receive help irorn their ag teacher. ln ag mechanics they are trained in the mechanical operations of modern farming devices.

Bottom right: Dean and lim studied a little book- keeping in og science S., x ,, l .gnclualriagaia Many Jobs in this country depend on the ability to work with your hands and to make things. Proficiency in auto mechanics, wood- working, or blueprinting is, therefore, a valu- able asset and something to try to achieve, We students of Lindsay High are fortunate to have the facilities available to further these interests and abilities. The latest equipment, texts, and instructions can be had by merely enrolling in one of the shop classes, The scheduling of one of the classes in your program might be the start of an interest that will bloom into a profitable and satisfying career. Topi Bob and Alvin show their handiness with tools while assembling a table in wood shop, Center: Bob, lack, Charlie, Ron, Don, Bill, Harold and Glendori learn what makes an engine tick and how to make necessary repairs in auto shop.

For a maiority of students the physical education class provides the most enjoyment of an entire day, lt is here that we can use up the energy we have been holding back. Another thing that is so appealing is the fact that there is no homeworkl The boys' PE, classes, under the supervision ot Mr. Skadan and Mr, Mason, have played such sports as touch football, volleyball, and basketball. The girls, supervised by Mrs. Luna and Mrs. Brown, have had fun playing volleyball, basketball, tennis, field hockey, speedeafway and badminton. The girls hold tournaments in most of these sports. ln physical education we learn sportsmanship and co-operation and how to take the responsibility of both, PE, is an important part of our American edu- cational program.

The junior class, reflecting upon the pros- pects of a bright future ahead, endeavored to make the year one that would be remembered with pride, To succeed they needed to carry out their business competently, to take part in the varied opportunities tor extra-curricular activities offered by the school, and to promote as many activities as were needed to give the seniors the best juniorfsenior prom and bane quet in the history of LHS, And succeed they did, although they may receive some argument about the prom from reminiscent alumni. The junior play was a hit, and new ideas for dances brought in large money-making crowds, They could not have done it without the ever present help of their advisers. v 'Nessus- First row.

The Sophomores en- joyed getting it together and appreciated the compliments, As a result of their hard work the auditorium was packed and they gained one hundred fifty eight dollars which will be used for future activities. Throughout the year their democratic spirit kept them on top with one hundred per cent attendance on air watch. In order to raise money for the needy every- where, which is one of Americas biggest pro- jects, they have had cake sales, The money was turned over to the Red Cross and March of Dimes.

With- out the liberty which America en- joys, high school would not be the fun and adventure that it is. The opening day, the colorful and exciting sports events, the marching band, the class yells, the Christmas formal, and the hard studying for exams all help to make the life of high school boys and girls in a small town-yours and mine. America means something dit- ferent to each of us, but to us it is an idea, a thought, and a symbol, all three standing for liberty, liber- ty to fight for and to enjoy our rights and privileges. America is the right to have life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. 5 Co-editors D. Thompson and N. Brissenden looked over their layouts for the pages of this years Comet. Our thanks to the staff, to Miss Williams, our adviser, and tc Mr. Thomas, our group photographer, for the help they have given us in our attempt to tell you that America really is tor all of us. Everyday, as we go about our daily tasks, each of us is working or playing in the shadow of the great stars and stripes, our flag and our nation forever.

Nowhere. Pat Dunlap, this year's very capable editor, introduced a plan of letters to the edi- tor to help students air their opinions. With the help of a willing bevy of news reporters, school events were given proper notice on the tront page, many times with accompanying photos. The light side ot school lite was unfolded in feature stories, and readers enjoyed the unusual humor columns dealing with everything from cars to corsages. Sports events and league standing received the spotlight on the last page. With the help ot our new adviser, Miss Miller, the Lindsay High School has a paper ot which to be proud. Top left: P.

This loss was followed by two wins, one from Orosi and the other over hope- less McFarland. The final game of the season was against Woodlake. A win would have meant a South Sierra League three way co-championship. Unfortunately they were too strong for us beat- ing us badly.
