We dedicate our 1978 PIONEER to a teacher who gained not only respect from his students but love as well. Mr. Paul Holliway, 1917-1978 Surely none of his former students and colleagues will ever forget how much sheer energy Mr. Holliway devoted to teaching, or how he was always willing to devote extra time to individual students. Mr. Holliway was genuinely concerned not only that his students learned, but that they enjoyed learning and retained interest in the subjects they were studying. He often went to great lengths to inject humor and interest in his teaching. None of his students will probably ever forget his Christmas “Chemis-tree”, made of chemical experimental apparatus, or his repeated jokes about the store bought products he used in experiments, like Calumet Baking Soda, Brer Rabbit’s Molasses, or Fleischmann’s Dry Yeast. He would use the phrase, “Best By Test, tut, tut!”, to describe their value. Or when using pH paper (alkaline test strips), he would refer to it as Paul Holliway paper. Mr. Holliway always seemed to be bursting with enthusiasm, especially when it came to school spirit. When explaining how a catalyst speeds up a reaction, he would use the phrase, “Go, Go, Pioneers!” For all of the unique ways he taught we will all remember him as a truly great teacher. 2

Students participate in work credit Many students at NCHS participate in the DECA and FBLA work credit program. This program is designed to help students in preparing for their futures with on-the-job training. It is under the guidance of Mr. Robert Rathe and Miss Jan Wulf, business teachers at the school. Students like this project and work eagerly to earn their credits. The students are required to work at least ten hours a week; they receive five credits per semester that they work. The employers grade the students at the end of every quarter and confer with their teachers from time to time to discuss the progress of the students. These business managers prefer student workers on this program because they can be more sure of getting a good worker and one who cares. 4
