Mi AFTER SCHOOL ACTIVITIES After school, we the students of Lowell Hit'll School could noon home and watch our televisions or listen to our rock and roll msuic. However, many of the students prefer to remain after school to broaden our character and shorten the nap between student and teacher. Do the teachers enjov stayinn with us durinn our various activities? Just ask any one of them. They love every minute of it. As a result of our sacrificed evenings, we hope to find even more wa s of expressing our Ireat Not ions. Athletic events and practices, our malistic endeavors, homework, and fun are just a few of the mysterious reasons the students here stay after school. The many parents that provide transportation for these active students certainly deserve credit for their work in allowing more students to discover ideas. STUDENTS ARE PEOPLE TOO! Education and discovery of great ideas are not found only in school Many are discovered in the home such as the dish washer (where would we be without it?) and the telephone. Relaxation is also a specialty of the home because it prepares us for the time when we may Ik called upon to find our own Great Notion.

After four and a half weeks of planning the events leading to the election started. Registration week was first. Precincts were organized and students began to register. Then the campaigning started. Literature, buttons, pencils, and stickers were just a few of the many things dis- tributed as Rally Day approached. Classes were dismissed and candidates were invited. Dr. Joseph Basile, Mike Cullom, Former Senator Bernard Konrady, Ernest Niemcyer, Dr. Harold Negley, and George Dragus were among the candidates who attended. Mock Election 1972 was a great success and learning experience for everyone. 2 3 LEFT: Carry Rosenthal introduces former Senator Bernard Konrads Although Mathew Welsh could not attend, he invited Gwen Schuyler.

TRIAL STRETCHES ON FOR THREE LONG DAYS Mr. Lowe was murdered last fall before homeroom. This was the beginning of the case that rocked the school. The case of the People vs. Maxine Lowe.” Who could have committed this crime? Was it his wife; Maxine, the hotel owner, the cleaning lady, or was it someone else? What followed was the most controversial trial in L.II S. history. The variety of witnesses offered humorous and dramatic accounts of the murder. Midway through the trial, a shocking turn-of events put the case in a new perspective. This drama changed the lives of many but none as Maxine Lowe. w W MU.W •• ' 25 MTIi I THESPIAN SOCIETY STARTS THE YEAR WITH A MURDER TRIAL In the fall of this year a trial was held under the direction of Mr. Kminhizer and sponsored by the Thespian Society of L IES.

This improvement has brought about better playing and marching abilities, better contribution to school spirit, and in general, a better attitude. Mr. Crane is the man behind it all. The band contributes its talents to L.II S. in many ways by parades, half-time shows at both football and basketball games, concerts, and various other performances. Most of all, the band contributes its talents to arousing school spirit. Their stimulating marches through the school add tremendously to student interest and participation.

Sue Nash captured the Talent Award with an excerpt from Miracle Worker. Marianne Martins-son graciously accepted the Miss Congeniality Award. To earn this, Marianne recited a poem while playing the piano. Perhaps the most exciting part of the evening was the physical fitness routine, Anchors Away and Stars and Stripes Forever. All in all, the evening was enjoyable for all involved. Sickengers Jewelry 314 Commercial Ave .

Although all the teachers deserve praise, some of the more memorable performances were given by Friar Cluck, Little Red Hood and Nipper the Wonder Dog. 37 CHOIR — THEY SING A RAINBOW Success marked the year for the Lowell High Choir Program. The formation of a swing choir was an exciting change for Lowell High. Besides singing for various groups around the community, several choir members sang in the State Choral Festival at Indianapolis and the State Choir Contest where two Lowell Choir members tried out and qualified for all State Choir.

CHOIR MUSICAL SPECTACULAR The hard work of the cast and director Ric McFadden (a student teacher for choir this year) made the choir musical a magnificent success. The play ran for two nights and it drew large crowds both times. Much work was needed on costumes and make-up. but with the help of a fine back-stage crew, it all got done. The cast also was forced to sacrifice many of their other activities and stay long hours after school, some times as late as midnight, to put together such a fine production. Set in San Francisco, the tale involves Orientals caught up in an American love affair.

The Student Council this year was an organization under scrutiny and investigation, but they still functioned well under the stress. The council once again provided the leadership and stability to the student body. Hardworking president, Jeff Gunning, was the extremely competent leader of the council. Backed by a busy and energetic council, Jeff’s job was much easier. Although the council was criticized throughout the year, none of its detractors attended the meetings or offered solutions. All in all. the year was a good one for the Student Council. 45 TOP LEFT: Rhythm section warms up the crowd before the Conglomeration convo TOP RIGHT: Conglomeration was not all music, as shown here by a ventriloquist and her dummy (The dummy's the one on the left) ABOVE: Solo performances showed individual talent RIGHT: Vincennes swimg choir provided the music in the first convo of the year CONVOS BRING JOY TO AN OTHERWISE MUNDANE EXISTENCE TOP: Students show enthusiasm for another convo TOP RIGHT: Chuck aidl ssith one of his little friends I.F.FT: That last note was a little sour, wasn't it?

They also perform good deeds here at school. These girls will do anything from checking your coat at a basketball game to making you a hotdog during halftime.

The Mother’s Tea never fails to be a popular and well-attended event. This years was no exception. A large crowd of mothers and daughters watched as girls from the Home Kc. classes modeled their own creations. “Carousel was the theme of this years tea. Mr. Ric Me-Fadden, choir student teacher, entertained the ladies with a medley of songs from the musical “Carousel ”. The Lowell High Swing Choir also sang for the pleasure of the crowd. The high point of the tea was of course, the crowning of the May Queen. Wendy Potter was crowned Lowell’s May Queen for 1973. The members of the May Court were Marianne Martinsson, Susan Black.

Club does many things besides stuffing you with goodies and sewing your seams when you split. Among this year's biggest money-making activities was the selling of mugs and toothbrushes, a very clean, refreshing project. This was a big success with the heavy milk drinkers with dirty teeth. Other projects were selling cookbooks and calendars. This way a person will not only know what to cook but also on what day he is eating. Sponsoring a float at Homecoming added to the year. 55 RIGHT: Layout department head Becky Ellis discusses her most recent creation with an unidentified arm BELOW: Amidst the clutter of her desk, ex-layout head Judy Martin checks for that particular design to make her layout just right BOTTOM: Lowellian advisor David Hunt 73 STAFF POTPOURRI OF TALENT The 1973 Lowellian staff was one of the most versatile in years; and it was a good thing, for the problems that occured in putting out an unusual yearbook such as the 1973 Lowellian were many. With deadlines coming up all too soon, pictures missing, layouts lost, and copy lying about under everyone’s feet, the staff heaved a huge sigh of relief as they finally finished and could go home for the summer. ’ This year's book may well be the most difficult ever tried at Lowell,” said Lowellian advisor David Hunt. The flip-flop book is a very difficult concept to work with, and all the color in the opening section was awkward to coordinate. All of this was handled very capably by coordinator Kassi Mitchell and next year’s chief Debbie Proper. One of the year’s brightest spots was the addition of Gina Matury to the staff as head of the Business Dept. She was selected as Most Valuable Staffer of the Year. 56 TOP: 1973 Lowellian Stall - Wade Ellis. Dave Eidam. Don Halo. Terry Meyers. Don Stuart. Mick Milakovic. Sandy Klahn. Julio Adam. Dan Clark.

Besides being in attendance at all basketball and football games, it helps liven up pep sessions with skits, cakes and lively cheering. The Pep Club also ran fund raising drives, including bake-sales (much to the delight of the heavy eaters in the school). Under the direction of sponsor Nancy Keyes the Pep Club had a very successful season. 59 MRS. HILE IN EARLY RETIREMENT Mrs. Vivian Mile, pictured above in one of her more typical poses (working directly with a student), was forced into an early retirement this year due to health problems. Mrs. Mile had been teaching at Lowell for the past 15 years. Until leaving she was the chairman of the English Department. Mrs. Hile’s skills in teaching and talking to young people were recognized by her College English students when she left, as shown by the many beautiful flowers and nice gifts she received as tokens of her students’ gratitude. Mrs. Mile leaves behind her many followers — her loss is not only felt by the members of the English Department, but by the whole school. 60 MR. HAM RETIRES AFTER 40 YEARS AT L.H.S. Mr. George Ham retired from Lowell High School this year following injuries he received in an accidental fall at his home. Mr. Ham has taught typing and business in the Lowell schools for the past 40 years, while running a small suburban newspaper in the evening and after school. During his years in the high school, he also served as yearbook advisor and Supervisor of Business. Mr. Ham was one of the most popular faculty members for, despite his years, he was always ready to tell a few “stories”. Mr. Ham’s friends go a long way back in Lowell, as he taught the parents of a great many of our present students. His skill in typing w as never questioned (he w as a champion typist in his younger days), and he was always ready to help school activities. George Ham will be remembered with fondness in the years ahead — for he was a fine man and a great educator. 61 SEVENTY-THREE PROM BIG SUCCESS This year's prom theme was “Colour My World, The Juniors did a fine job producing the prom and post prom ceremonies. Thanks to the junior class’s abundant treasury, the prom was held at the After Four Club. This brought some changes to the usual scene as the V.F.W. is the site that most classes pick for this occasion. The high point of the evening was the moment when Alan Roberts and Wendy Potter were crowned as the Prom King and Queen for they year of 1973. Lowell Floral Shop 1114 E Commercial Avc.. Lowell.

Mr. Sullivan took over the duties of the Dean as Mr. Weiand wanted to make an attempt at educating some of our younger people in the wonders of science. Mr. Druckemiller was again second in command but this was to be the last of Mr. Elbert’s five years as commander-in-chief of Lowell High School. This marks the end of a fine career at Lowell as Mr. Elbert was the first principal in the new high school and did an outstanding job of guiding us through the confusion of a new style of school. We re sure that the entire community would like to join Lowell High and the Lowellian staff in thanking Mr. Elbert and wishing him luck with his new school. 77 Elaine Bever, Guidance Councelor Norma Sark.

Miss Bever, Mr. Perry, and Mrs. Vandermark spend much of their time helping students with their problems, and giving friendly advice as well as straightening out schedules. They also keep track of the students’ records, a job in itself. Our counselors are people we could never do without. Mr. Hupp and his staff offer a number of services to the students and faculty of Lowell High School. Besides running the library, they manage the Materials Production Center, which adds interesting visual aids to many classes. Surely we all should be grateful for such a fine library. 79 I)r Maria I Arista, Optometrist, 490 Commercial Ave., Lowell. Indiana. Carlson's Electric.

This year, in order to suit their programs to each student’s needs, Mr. Skinner and Mr. Osterloo initiated the testing-out program. Mr. Backe’s consumer Math students learned to manage their finances through practical experience. The Math Department also organized a field trip to Chicago for all of the freshmen. The Science Department offered a varied curriculum. Use of the laboratories provides students with an opportunity to apply what they have learned in the interesting lectures. In Biology, fascinated students dissected starfish. Physics students were encouraged to concentrate on their individual interests, and classes in Earth Science learned about their environments from a trip to the dunes. 81 Frank O'Shea.

Frank O’Shea, Steve Cusick, and Susan Graham included in their courses this year almost every activity imaginable. Miss Graham’s freshmen girls showed the community that Phys. Ed. was much more than softball with a tremendously successful spring P.E. show. The Business Department offered two new courses this year: Business survey and data processing. Business survey included typing, shorthand, business machines, bookkeeping, clerical record keeping, data processing, basic business, and sales. Students in the Business Department learn many useful skills for the future. 83 Randy Deweese. Social Studies Sgt Carl Gayficld. Aerospace Ed Sgt Henry Sichterman, Aero Ed Maj Wendell Pribvl.

FOUR SCORE AND SEVEN YEARS AGO . . . 1972-73 was a busy year for the Social Studies and Aerospace Education Departments. One project that was a huge success was the Mock Election held by Mr. Worn-hoff’s American History classes. Two of the Guest speakers at the Election Rally were Sen. Niemeyer and Superintendent N eg ley. Plans for next year feature the possibility of a freshman elective course and a new minicourse program for American History. Classes in government held trials to dramatize the system used in American courts. Psychology students gave much of their time and effort to making Christmas a lot more merry at Manteno State Hospital. Classes with a new name. Aerospace Education, got an introduction to the Air Force. 85 Jeff Summers. Industrial Ed Nobert Blanchard. Industrial Ed L Robert Horan.

HELPS STUDENTS PLAN FUTURES The Industrial Ed classes provides a student with the opportunity to develop natural skills while gaining knowledge and experience. By using the substantial facilities the school has to offer, a student finds that Lowell is a good training ground for future employment. This year, besides working in auto mechanics, electronics and electricity, woodworking and metal work, the Industrial Ed Club formed a small corporation, called Hilco. Members of the company sold stocks to interested students. Their product, high-intensity lamps made from pop cans, (believe it or not) sold well and the entire undertaking was a success. Another high point during the year was the award received by electronics teacher Robert Hopper. Mr. Hopper was given an award from the state for Meritorious teaching in Industrial Arts. 87 Vestal Bailey. Home Ee Wilma Smith. Home Ee James Crane, Band Wendell Fredrick. Choir-I.atin Robert Ray.

Mr. Fredrick and Mr. Crane also did a good job with the Choir and Band. Both of the groups are something that we should be proud of.

How to put grades on report cards? How to figure the honor roll? These problems and others were solved, and the new curriculum was on its feet. To go along with the new courses, the freshmen and the first-semester sophomore courses were completely redone. The purpose of these first three semesters is to give the students the basics they need in the minicourses. In order to accomplish this, freshman and sophomore teachers spent their time cramming spelling, grammar, and literature. It is with a sense of triumph that the English Department announces the survival of the first year of its new curriculum. 91 ACTIVE FACULTY KINGS OF THE HILL Allegre.

In Coach Wiend’s first year at the helm the team had a disappointing season. Despite showing a lot of determination and hustle, the roundballers came up with only three wins, one of which was a forfeit. Many of the games were close, hard-fought battles where the experience of the opponents finally won out. Many of the members of the team were not played extensively prior to this season, and at times they made mistakes of inexperience.. Unfortunately these mistakes were too crucial to be offset by the aforementioned hustle and determination. However, injuries to important players, such as Dave Cass-man and Dale Kersey, both seniors, also affected the team in a big way. in TOP LEFT: STANDING: K Sander. A Eubank. T Holding.

In only their second year of existence the girls roared to a 9-2 record and nearly won the sectional crown, being downed by Gavit in the championship game. And this was all done with a team composed mainly of Sophomores so we can expect better things in the future. Like maybe a state trophy Miss Graham? 113 WRESTLERS IN A TIGHT HOLD The wrestling team had a poor season this year with a 2-8 dual meet record. This poor record can be attributed to the lack of experienced wrestlers. However, things are looking brighter. The junior high school now has a wrestling program. This will help tremendously to build a strong team in the future.

There were new uniforms, new ideas and tryouts. Susie McLellan worked her way to state competition where she captured the Mental Attitude Award and placed very high in the events. This year was rewarding for the team. Much experience was gained by all, making next year a most promising one for the girls. m STRIVE FOR PRIDE When a girl is chosen as a cheerleader for the J.V. squad, she may find it hard at times to live up to the expectations and hard work her position holds. This year found Gayle, Lori, Kim, Debbie and alternate Teri Ogborn busy with hours of practice and plans for building up spirit and school pride — not always an easy job. Whether returning next year to become Varsity cheerleaders or not, these girls can help to make 73-4 even better for Lowell High pride.

This makes the job of a frosh cheerleader even more difficult. But backed by the spirit of the freshman class, Joan, Debbie, Lori and Tammy paved the way for a most successful year at 123 L.H.S. The squad led the way in obtaining fan busses to nearly every away game, filled them, and were able to build up a large cheer block which attended many games and led to their team's success. We hope they can keep this drive and enthusiasm and continue to be a source of success for Lowell High School. VARSITY HARDBALLERS THINGS ARE LOOKING UP! Despite our inexperience and youth, this year’s team did an outstanding job winning 12 and losing 14. At times, we started as many as three freshman and two sophomores. The future looks bright with ten letterman returning in 74 and only two of this year’s seniors gone. One of those seniors, Mike Smith, received a scholarship to Marion College and also provided the highlight of the season by hurling a no-hitter against Merriville. Lowell Transit Mix, Inc.

Of the fourteen players that took the field for the J.V.’s, twelve were 76ers. These younger players could hardly be expected to be very competitive against their more seasoned opponents. Their record was a poor 1-10. However, with the experience gained this year and under the instruction of Coach Skvara, they should be a definite force in Lowell baseball in the future.

Miss Graham’s charges finished with one of the best records in the school (except for the other girls teams). Amy Ruley came through with the best performance when she finished fifth in the half-mile at the state meet. Their past success, plus the fact they only lose one runner through graduation, promises to make next year another winning season. Lowell Body Shop.

The Thinclads record does not tell the whole story of the desire and moxie they had. The team was composed largely of Freshmen and Sophomores, and all worked hard to earn a respectable record. The brightest spot was the performance of John Sheets, who competed in sectionals and went on to perform at the regional track meet as one of the areas best sprinters.

NOT REALLY We, the seniors of 73 have many memories that will linger on long after graduation. Can’t you still hear Linda Peterson s music floating through the school, and Cindy Bossenburger’s clarinet under the direction of Mr. Step'J Miss Thompson’s whistle resounds throughout the gym though our last years in gym suits are behind us. How many seniors and parents could ever forget cheering Klein’s teams on through to victory and defeat? Who is that lady with the cane? Under classmen will remember her too. but to the seniors. she means much more. She is Mrs. Hazel Nichols. No matter how good or bad we tried to be those four years, no one escaped Mrs. Bussleburg; the dean's partner in punishment and the world’s best admit slip manufacturer is gone, but not forgotten. Our senior class has gone through a lot from our freshman year down to the last day of our senior year. We have so many memories to hold on to. Four long years in a brand new school; looking back and remembering so many faces brings back poignant thoughts.
