Mead Public School - Raider Yearbook (Mead, NE)

Text from Pages 1 - 102 of the 1954 volume:

r We hold high the torch of liberty to the people of all the world. We pledge ourselves to respect and maintain the principles of the “American Way of Life”. AMERICAN Right to work in callings and localities of our choice. Right to bargain with our employers and employees. Right to go into business, compete, make a profit. Right to bargain for goods and services in a free market. Right to contract about our affairs. Right to the service of government as a protector and referee. Right to freedom from arbitrary governmen regulation and control. The doors of the public schools in America are open to all races regardless of class, race, creed, or religion. WAY OF LIFE Right to worship God in one’s own way. Right to free Speech and Press. Right to assemble. Right to petition for grievances. Right to privacy in our homes. Right of Habeas Corpus--no excessive bail. Right to trial by jury--innocent till proven guilty. Right to move about freely at home and abroad. Right to own private property, ight to free elections and personal ballot. A great challenge comes to the young people of this decade. They are called to be good citizens, not only of their immediate communities and their country, but also of the world. All nationalities of the world have made their contributions to the society in which we live. All peoples were created equal and should be respected and appreciated by one another. We must learn to live with other nations or we shall perish. Peace must rule and we must learn to have faith in the integrity of our fellowmen. In such an atmosphere harmony may be achieved. We, the Annual Staff of the 1954 Yearbook of the Mead Consolidated School, pledge ourselves to promote understanding and sympathy between nations. Grace Moser We Will Slemem ei BYRON RAY WIDMAN We dedicate this 1953-1954 Annual to Byron Ray Wid- man, who was fatally injured near Fremont, Nebraska, on September 28, 1953. Byron was president of the Sophomore Class and was a very popular lad in High School. He had a cheerful, pleas- ant disposition, and greeted everyone with a smile. He was highly esteemed by all of his classmates. Byron spent his boyhood days at the farm home north- east of Mead. He was a member of the Marietta Dairy Hustlers and Future Farmers of America and was very much interested in all of their activities. We reverently dedicate this yearbook as a memorial to Byron, who was suddenly taken from our midst just when he was beginning to be a useful citizen. fBowid 4 education William Behrens David Magnuson Raymond Nygren-Treasurer Mrs. Anton Svoboda Clarence Kinzler-Chairman Kenneth V. Anderson Clarence Anderson LEADERSHIP Leadership is essential for every organization. Without proper leadership, a school would fail, but with the capable leadership of the Board of Education, our superintendent, and the faculty, our school has very efficient leadership. We, as students of the Mead School, sincerely compliment the adminis- tration on their commendable job. Richard A. Swanson This Yearbook will always be a re- minder to me of many profitable assoc- iations with students of the Mead School. May it recall for you, as the years quickly pass, worthwhile experiences which left you just a little wiser than they found you. KENNETH V.

FLOWER-White Rose In the fall of 1950 on this unpredictable mid century morning twenty green freshmen, complete with a case of fright and wobbly knees, enrolled in Mead High School. Our very friendly seniors gave us the opportunity to make friends by giving us a party. Our fresh- man year was under the sponsorship of Mr. Jones. We elected Grace Moser president, David Bailey vice-president, Arlene Kudlacek secre- tary, and Allan Nygren treasurer. Our Freshman year will hold many memories, especially of our class skating parties. In 1951, on a mild September day, twenty-two happy sophomores opened the year under the sponsorship of Mr. Hunt. We chose Allan Nygren president, Grace Moser vice-president, Arlene Kudlacek secre- tary, and David Bailey treasurer. Here again we will remember the good times. In the autumn of 1952, twenty proud juniors, being upper class- men, now found themselves walking on clouds. Mr. Bodzek was our sponsor. Our officers were David Bailey president, Richard Pearson vice-president, Arlene Kudlacek secretary, and Grace Moser treasurer. We purchased our class rings and presented the Junior Play, “Bolts and Nuts”, in which we all enjoyed working. We also participated in Boys and Girls County Government. Our class was host to the seniors at the Junior-Senior Picnic and to the graduates and members of the alumni at the Alumni Banquet. On a bright and shining September day in 1953, we now saw that the end was in sight. We started the year with seniority rights by initiating the freshmen. Our sponsor was Mr. Simpson. We elected the following officers--Richard Pearson president. Bob Moline vice president, Ernest Rosenthal secretary-treasurer, and Arlene Kudlacek class reporter. We looked forward to our Senior Play, the Junior- Senior Picnic, Sneak Day, and last of all, graduation. “Yes, we are going to graduate”, but wherever we go, you’11 never find a better class than the “Seniors of 1954” or a better school than Mead High School. During our high school career, our class participated in many of the school activities such as band, glee club, sports, and Pep Club; and some individuals participated in solos at the contests and in journa- lism work in the BUCCANEER, and the RAIDER. £(wi Wilt and J siament We, The Class of '54 (hereafter individually named as party of the first part) being now fully well educated, are desirous of bequeathing our most virtuous possession to the neediest undergraduates (hereafter individually named as party of the second part).
