Text from Pages 1 - 96 of the 1976 volume:

Published By The Annual Staff of 1976 Neponset High School Neponset, Illinois August, 1976 Volume XXV1X Just as the previous Zephyrs' have led us down the track of time, at N. H. S. so it is with this Zephyr that we emphasize time-past, present, and future. Many fond memories can be had reminiscing about former experiences, classmates, and teachers; therefore it is hoped that this Zephyr will successfully tell the story of N. H. S. in a very special year-1976. Teachers at NHS maintain their youth in spite of the students. Eveline comes prepared for whatever the climate might be within the school walls. Through the years of experience, Eveline knows that the temperature at NHS varies from hour to hour. 2 Above Left; While the safe is left unguarded, Jan decides to take that opportunity to try the safe cracking technique she saw on Starsky Hutch. This cool trio of Brian, Brad, and Lane dress up in honor of 50's day. Above right, Brenda and Steve enjoy a quiet lunch far from the maddening crowd. After P.E. Class, the girls discuss the rest of the days activities. 3 Above, the sophomores take part in demonstrations for Mrs. Gerrond's speech class as a part of English II. You are now witnessing a rare occasion in which the Neponset High School Band dresses in its formal attire. 4 Mr. Dennison came into study hall just in time to help Gary with a puzzling Physics problem. Although it is good to look back down the tracks of lime, it is very important to keep moving ahead to fulfill your dreams, broaden your horizons, and to challenge the future. So let the Zephyr take us down the track through the 1975-76 school year and into the future. The Annual Staff of 1976 wishes to dedicate this twenty-ninth volume of the Zephyr to the Neponset High School building, which is celebrating its 50th birthday this year, being built in 1926. Since the high school has withstood 50 years of ambitious student activity, we are almost sure it can withstand the next 50 years, given the chance. The Annual Staff would also like to honor Mr. Lloyd Twing for his contributions to Neponset High School. He has unselfishly given time in taking pictures of student activities, is active with high school age students in church work, and is recognized as the talented artist who painted the picture of the high school, which hangs in the study hall, and the above sketch of the building. He is known to everyone as the best artist in the area, and we are sure he has influenced many lives in the community. 6 Athletics Zephyrs are (kneeling) Todd M., Robert G., Thomas K., Larry M., Mike H., Jeff C., Edward M., Brian Y., (standing) Clinton B., Charles T., Kevin B. (co-captain), John W., David M., Gregg P., Tony K., James H., and Kevin L. (co-captain). Coaches were an important pan in the Zephyr season. At right, coaches Tom Turman and Roben Tasker go over the game plan against one of Zephyr's opponents. Managers for the Zephyr's football team were Dwayne Jackson, Julius Maes, and Dave Meal-man. 8 r 7 yfnotfcv As center of the Zephyrs for two years, Kevin Logsdon has proved to be the mainstay in the Zephyr's offensive unit. As co-captain this year, he also played defensive tackle. Below left, the Zephyr’s quarterback for the last three years has been Kevin Brown. He served as comerback his sophomore year and linebacker his junior and senior years. He was co-captain his senior year. He was voted All-Conference Honorable Mention quarterback his sophomore year as well as All-Conference first team linebacker his senior year. Coach Tasker discusses the plan of attack against Ohio with co-captains Kevin Logsdon and Kevin Brown the night of bonfire. Jim Heiser's valiant effort proves useless against the Wyanet Eagles. 9 M'idwLtt Tfelj) Jpfuju Q$dm %SX ) WutfiLiGti Cheering together throughout the '75 football season are Jan Ger-rond, Dena Kopp, Deb Junis, Kathy Nyert, Sue Brown, Teresa Van Meir, Laura Hood, and Mary Van Meir.

Superman flies again. 11 CfYs Todivo) jo) 7uW(} fm Even though the Junior Varsity Squad was small, they did a good job and NHS is proud of them. The squad. pictured here with Coach Tasker, consisted of Mike Heise, Jeff Chadd, Brad Kemer-ling. Dave Krahn, Larry Mueller, and Ronnie Ouart. Ben Yepsen was the manager. Varsity player Jim Heiser shows J. V. player Mike Heise how to put the block on an opponent. Dave Krahn demonstrates one of his fabulous shots. Although the JVs had a 6-12 record, four games were lost only by a few points and it was felt they really were more outstanding than their record indicated. 12 Top, demonstrating one of their favorite formations are Sue Brown, Laura Hood, Deb Junis, and Jan Gerrond for the varsity squad. The J.V. cheerleaders, Mary Van Meir, Dena Kopp, Kathy Nyen, and Teresa Van Meir, end their cheer with a pyramid during one of the pep sessions. 13 Displaying the trophies they won through the last three years are Jan G., Deb J., Laura H., Sue B., Julius M., mgr., Lane N., Tom K., Dave K., Larry M., Chuck T., mgr., Jeff C., Kevin B., capt., John W., Dave M., Walter C., Fred K., Brad K., Jim H.. and Mr. Tasker, coach.

They were the mainstay of the Zephyr's team which claimed the Little '8' title for the three consecutive years they played on the team. Named to the basketball all-conference first team was Dave Mueller, a junior standout. John W. shows off his leaping ability as he soars to outjump the considerably taller opponent. 15 Tom rJvtoot ms uhjm MU 200 CMM Tom Kroot puts forth a final effort to win the 100 yard dash in the Little 8 Conference Meet. He also won the 220 at the meet and went on to set the record for the 200 meter at the Bureau County Track Meet. Brad and Mike work out to better prepare themselves for an upcoming meet. Squad members working with Mr. Tasker as their coach were Brad Kemerling, Mike Heise, Lane Norton, Tom Kroot, and Jeff Chadd. 16 Organizations Top left. Barb Geriond, Dena Kopp, and Sonia Block tune up for their contest number for which they received a first place rating. Top right, winning 3 firsts and 1 second for their instrumental solos were Barb Gerrond, Sonia Block, David Krahn, and Dan Brietbach.

Lauri, Lisa, and Karen practice their contest number without the benefit of the fourth member of the clarinet quartet, Gary Krahn. The group also received a first place rating. 18 CBaJ (} (ndt r I )iwtwn Performing at all the home football games was the marching band consisting of 28 members. Mr. Larry Weber checks the arrangement of Hey Jude prior to a chorus session. Mr. Weber being new to N. H. S. this year, directed both the instrumental and vocal programs for the school district. Mr. Weber has a bachelor of science degree from Illinois State University. Through Mr. Weber's efforts, the band and chorus members did well in the concerts presented locally as well as in their participation in the IHSA contests. For his contribution to the N. H. S. music program, Mr. Weber might be compared to Francis Scott Key who gave us our national anthem. Adding some color and flare to the marching band was the flag and rifle girl drill team. Members practicing a formation are Arlene Claeys, Crystal Stabler, Sue Brown, Kathy Nyert, Sonya Anderson, Sue Sissel, Lisa Smith, Karen Moore, Lauri Smith, Anita Stabler, BarbGerrond, Jan Gerrond, and Dena Kopp. 19 First row: Deb Swearingen, Brad Kemerling, Lane Norton, Pat Gunning, Eva Tremont, Karen Moore: second row: Lisa Smith, Lauri Smith, Sue Brown, Jan Gerrond, Brenda Folger, Anita Stabler, Patti Stetson, Laura Hood, Barb Gerrond: third row: Cindy Cowling, Marcia Heise, Vickie Mowbray, Teresa Van Meir, Dena Kopp, Sonia Block, Janet Hoadley. Sharing the duties of accompanist this year were Karen Moore, Sonia Block, Laura Hood, Patti Stetson, Anita Stabler, and Sue Brown. Below left, this sextet sang Wonder What Kind of a Day It Will Be at the solo and ensemble contest held at Washburn on March 5. The sextet members are Eva Tremont, Brad Kemerling, Karen Moore, Lauri Smith, Laura Hood, Lane Norton. Right, Melanie Snyder and Karen Moore each sang a solo at music contest. Sonia Block took a piano solo to contest and received a superior. 20 A more active role was taken by the Student Council this year to promote school spirit. Four assemblies were sponsored by the Council featuring the Gilbertos (an acrobatic family), Danny and Dereth (singers from England), Chuck Naidl (a reptile expert), and Russ Charles (a comedy magician). Free pop was given to class members having the best representation at the basketball games. A Nostalgia 50's Day was held in April with $20 awarded to the winning class. In addition, members made posters to support the tax referendum and also attended school board meetings. Hello JerTy? As one President to another, what's your opinion on . . .

On their return trip home form the Regional State Traffic Safety Conference in Bloomington, where they participated in different workshops concerning traffic safety, Dena, Barb, Lane, and Ben take a rest on the 1SU campus. 21 French club members were Miss Clark, Laura Hood, Jan Gerrond, Brenda Folger, Debbie Junis, Arlene Claeys, Debra Swearingen, John Wall, Barb Gerrond, Clint Block, Mark Stetson, Tom Kroot, and Lane Norton. Mardi Gras was invaded by fake foreigners from France. Surrounding Queen Jan Gerrond and King Clint Block are LaBelle, Joliet, Hunchback, a French artist, Maurice Chevalier, Jean Laffite, and a grape grower. Serving as officers were Miss Clark, sponsor; Tom Kroot, reporter; Jan Gerrond, president; Deb Junis, vice-president; and Laura Hood, treasurer and secretary. J{m Ou m fotnent dt J fipS. During chorus, Lisa seems a little weary of Sue and Jan’s rendition of their favorite song, Windy”. Mr. Nell seems to have worked the Annual Staff till they dropped during the Annual picnic at his house. 23 90U A.iMm (AkiU FFA members were Cliff Stetson, Marty Golby, Mike Heise, Jeff Hoogerwerf, Mark Cunningham, Clint Block, David Kaiser, Dwayne Jackson, Ronnie Ouart, Larry Mueller, Arlene Claeys, Steve Adams, Tony Kares, David Duff, Walter Claeys, Julius Maes, Jeff Chadd, John Wall, Jim Heiser, Dave Mueller, Fred Kopp, Chuck Thumma, and Gregg Pickering. Because of no junior or senior level ag courses being taught at N.H.S. this year, the FFA activities were diminished somewhat. FFA was sponsored by Mr. Hoarsley the first semester and Mr. Kime the second semester, each teaching at Neponset the last two periods of the day. Among this year's social activities of FFA were the FFA Banquet, co-sponsoring Snowball with FHA, and helping with the Homecoming bonfire. Again this year, the organization farmed the reclaimed stripmine land between Neponset and Sheffield under the supervision of Mr. Kime. In class, the Sophomores could be found repairing the tractor, working on different implements and learning to survey. Freshman ag students spent much of their time learning the different breeds of hogs, cattle, and sheep as well as working some on welding and surveying. 24 Not only the students enjoyed the Snowball Dance which FFA helped co-sponsor, but the teachers also enjoyed the evening. rDue to y((j( P)ocj)(m (tt-lmi 25 F.F.

Jan Gerrond, Eva Tremont, and Anita Stabler gather around the stove while Mrs. Block gives them instructions on quantity cookery. The Home Ec. IV girls studied quantity cookery and served a week of piping hot meals at lunch hour. FHA set a Bicentennial theme for their activities this year. Along with Freshmen Welcome, caroling party, Heart Sister Week and selling community calendars, they had a Daddy-Date Night, President's Honor Day, and a fun-packed FHA Week. Sue Sissel, Kathy Nyert, and Mrs. Block attended State FHA Convention in Springfield in April. FHA also co-sponsored the Snowball Dance with FFA. On May 5th they went to Peoria and visited the Allied Health Center and shopping. Above, FHA girls for 1976 were Crystal Stabler, Mary Van Mier, Teresa Van Mier, Kathy Nyert, Pat Gunning, Brenda Folger, Anita Stabler, Deb Junis, Patti Stetson, Sue Brown, Laura Hood, Eva Tremont, Jan Gerrond, Barb Gerrond, Lauri Smith, Karen Moore, Lisa Smith, Sonia Block, Janet Hoadley, Terri Laub, Peteann Gricius, Vickie Mowbray, Peggy Weber, Dena Kopp, Sue Sissel, and Sonya Anderson. 27 Above left, Mary contemplates what to do next as Mrs. Block helps Crystal with her machine, and Janet-well, Janet just likes the photographer.

She proved this not only by her good grades but by the hard work she did this year as Mask Script President, Patti fulfilled all her duties as President and still took time out to provide the help and guidance needed. This year's Mask Script members included (sitting) Sonia Block, Karen Moore, Debjunis, Brenda Folger, Vickie Mowbray, (kneeling) Mark Mauceri, Laura Hood, Marty Golby, Dave Mueller, (standing) Anita Stabler, Melanie Snyder, Lane Norton, Lauri Smith, Gregg Pickering, JanGerrond, Patti Stetson, Ben Yepsen, and Mrs. Gerrond, Sponsor. Missing from the picture was Barb Gerrond. This past year has been a busy one for Mask Script. In addition to doing three one-act plays, ''Spring Scene, Where's That Report Card, and Mad Breakfast, in the fall, Mask Script made their contribution to the Bicentennial by writing and performing their version of the history of Nep-onset. Mask Script also held two initiation suppers and attended a play at Illinois State University entitled The Man Who Came to Dinner. 28 PieMiit cJn I Oil y('it Jri£ht This Year’s Mask Script officers were: Barb Gerrond.

Jim H., Debbie J., Brenda F., and Steve M.. join in a serious discussion during a break in the Snowball Dance. Mr. Weber and Karen Moore are really decked out for Nostalgic 50’s Day as they tune up for Rock Around the Clock.” At far right. Advanced English students enjoy an English tea that they prepared. Gee, Debbie, it’s only a picture. 32 Administration and Faculty 7C) yffLiinifacition This was Bruce Dennison’s first year at Neponset High School and his first year as an administrator. He was formerly from Canton, Illinois. He received his B.S. at ISU and his M. S. at Western. He is currently doing Post-graduate work at Western. At right, Mr. Dennison is always ready and willing to lend a helping hand to the students. Mrs. Eveline Lyford faithfully continues as Neponset High's secretary and District treasurer. Eveline is always seen smiling no matter how hectic the work in the office may be. 34 1P%luU ( Mr. Troy Meyer, superintendent of the schools, studies the minutes of the last board meeting. Dorothy Norton pauses from her duties as a District 307 secretary to contemplate her bowling career. President Bill Guthrie prepares to call upon the Board’s secretary, Edwin Heise, to read the minutes during the March board meeting. Jack Scott and Bill Guthrie confer with Mr. Dennison and Mr. Meyer during a board meeting. Other board members for the 1975-76 school year were: Edwin Heise, Ron Nash, Martha Price, Merle Moore, and Maynard Laub. 35 Besides teaching all major math classes, Mr. Roger Jepson taught geography, was Senior Class sponsor, and served as guidance counselor. Always ready for action, Mr. Jepson continues to build on Paul Revere’s basic mathematics of one if by land, two if by sea . At right in his second year of leaching world geography, Mr. Jepson says, Whereon earth can this place be? Mrs. Mary Ann Block taught home economics courses, consumer economics and sponsored FHA. Often found sewing, Mrs. Block can be compared to Betsy Ross sewing the flag for the United States. Mrs. Block is keeping things cool with the new refrigerator that was recently purchased for the home economics department. 36 Mr. Nell adjusts the sign on the new driver education car in getting ready for another fun-packed year of driving. 1 jU 3 it B 20 21 22 23 24 -2 Mr. John Nell taught drivers education, Bookkeeping I II, general business, basic math, and was privileged to serve as advisor for the Zephyr Staff. Mr. Nell, who enjoys camping and outdoor life, can be compared to Daniel Boone who was a great outdoorsman in the United States' early history. Miss Sue Logsdon was welcomed as our new faculty member at N. H. S. this year. Her duties included leaching all the science classes, serving as freshman class sponsor, and as cheerleading sponsor. Always being ready to take command particularly in the dangerous laboratory qualifies Miss Logsdon to be compared to Molly Pitcher who fired the cannon after her husband fainted because of the intense heat of the battle. What do you 'ZINC' about this class? asks Miss Logsdon. 37 JdU ('tib'twiM Teaching the first semester of Ag, Mr. Hoarsley gives his class notes on different types of soils. Taking Mr. Hoarsley's position for the second semester was Mr. Kime. Mr. John Kime who shares his teaching duties between the Kewanee and Neponset schools, has a bachelor of science degree from Illinois State University. Some of his hobbies are hunting, fishing, sports, and collecting antiques; therefore he took quite a liking to Neponset High School and the other bicentennial teachers. For his contributions to agriculture, Mr. Kime resembles Cyrus McCormick. As you have determined by this time, Mr. Kime is not pictured. _____________ Miss Marjorie Clark, besides being French I II teacher, took on a few new classes this year-namely Typing I II and shorthand. She also sponsored French Club and the Junior class. During her free time she was often caught crocheting as Martha Washington may have done for George while at Valley Forge. She has taught for two years. During her new class of shorthand, Miss Clark shows theory which was taught the first semester. Speed was concentrated on in the second semester. 38 Where have you been hiding this racy book, Mrs. Gerrond? Mrs. Carol Gerrond taught all English classes and was sponsor of Mask and Script. Helping everyone get good grades, Mrs. Gerrond can be compared to Florence Nightingale helping the soldiers on the battle field. Leaving his job as head coach, Mr. Larry Freeman taught all P.E. classes, two history classes, and health. During the summer, Mr. Freeman can be found sailing the seas and fishing, thus comparing him to John Paul Jones who was a great sailor in our American Revolution. I knew archery was a dangerous class, but I didn't think it would drive me to talking to myself-so says Mr. Freeman. 39 (3©o , and ()]aS !))U SS Cjndmoh t J(m id Q miees At right, Mis. Maes, school janitoress, opens the school doors each morning as part of her job. In addition, Nina carried out many other tasks around the school. School cooks, Linda Stetson and Arlene Stone, demonstrate their serving skill on Mr. Turman as he awaits his tasty lunch. Mr. and Mrs. Clarence Norton, Mrs. William Breitbach, and Mrs. Bill Craine faithfully drive the students to and from school every day and also to all extracurricular activities. 40 Terry Laub Doug Lindbeck Eddie McClard JittK nen 42 )i e(iOMt(l into J C Rpy Sonia Block Dan Brietbach Jeff Chadd David Duff Larry Mueller Lisa Smith Crystal Stabler PeteAnn Gricious Robert Gunning Janet Hoadley Tony Kares Cliff Stetson Mary Van Meir Brian Yarger The Freshman Class officers were President: Robert Gunning, Vice-President: Jeff Chadd, Secretary: Todd Milnes, Treasurer: Crystal Stabler, Reporter: Brian Yarger, and Advisor: Miss Logsdon. 43 “gW Sonya Anderson Walter Claeys Cindy Cowling Dave Dailey Marty Golby Marcia Heise Mike Heise Dwayne Jackson David Kaiser Brad Kemerling Dena Kopp David Krahn Mark Mauceri David Mealman Vickie Mowbray Melanie Snyder Kathy Nyert Teresa VanMeir Ronnie Oaurt Peggy Weber Mike Schurer Joni Wittmeyer Ben Yepsen Leading the Sophomore Class to bigger and better things are: Melanie Snyder (Sec.).

Holding their diplomas and roses, Eva Tremont and Jani Wittmeyer accept congratulations from parents and friends while in the receiving line. Mr. Jepson, Senior Class sponsor, checks over some last minute details with the graduates prior to the processional. This year’s graduation was the first N.H.S. graduation not to have an outside speaker; thus making it a bit more streamlined. Here, friends and relatives line up to congratulate each of the graduating Seniors. 53 Salutatorian Gary Krahn addresses the audience and the class of '76 with his speech for the evening. Deb Junis was the Valedictorian. Her grade point average was 4.46, while Gary's was 4.44. Anita Stabler and Gary Krahn received the Citizenship Award at the 1976 graduation ceremony. Jan Gerrond was very much surprised and happy to find that she was the recipient of the Sportsmanship Award. Deb Junis and Kevin Brown were voted the two who made the best of their opportunities at N. H. S. 54 Student Life 1975 Homecoming court: Jeff Chadd, Ben Yepsen, Jim Heiser, Gary Krahn, Fred Kopp, Kevin Brown, 1974 King Jim Moore, 1975 King Mark Cunningham , Queen Sue Brown, 1974 Queen Margo Kidd, Anita Stabler, Jan Gerrond, Laura Hood, Brenda Fol-ger, Sus Sis-sel, and Lisa Smith. Crownbearers were Mike Sissel and Jennifer Jackson. Homecoming was held on October 17, 1975, a very cold evening for the game. The Zephyrs, in battling Ohio, were defeated. On Thursday night preceding the important game, the annual Bonfire was held. A skit competition was held between all classes and organizations. The French Club won and received a case of pop for their efforts. Following the skits, the crowd moved to the bonfire. After the Ohio Bulldog was tltrown into the fire, the players were presented and the 1975 Homecoming Court was announced. Coronation practice was held. Climaxing the evening was a snake dance. Hard work by the Sophomores produced a successful dance with Midnight Blue as the theme. A blue ceiling and many stars added to the scenery. Music was presented by the We Three Band. The main event of the evening was the coronation performed by last year's king and queen, Jim Moore and Margo Kidd. The 1975 Homecoming will be remembered by all who attended. 56 At extreme left, Deb Junis snaps a picture of Freshman attendants Lisa Smith and Jeff Chadd.

Keeping their minds on the football game seems to be somewhat of a problem for the boys in the skit, Co-ed Football . 59 Snowball this year was a big success, having a large attendance. The theme was Stairway to Heaven . A circular ceiling and circular staircase decorated the gym for the occasion. Again this year, the FFA helped sponsor the dance. As usual, the freshman FHA members prepared and served the refreshments. An evening of fun and dancing was enjoyed by all.

The Home Ec. IV class prepared and served a five course meal based primarily on recipes from the Neponset Cookbook” published in the 1930's. Credit was given to individual recipe contributors. The entire menu represented food common on Neponset tables in the nineteenth century. Home Ec. I and II classes assisted with the food preparation and did the seating and serving. The meal began at 6:30: tickets were limited to the first fifty people to purchase them. At 8:00 pm, Mask and Script presented an original play entitled You Are There, written by club members. The play consisted of scenes, some factual and some fictional, from Neponset's history up to the present day. The dinner was sponsored by Mrs. Block while Mrs. Gerrond sponsored the play.

Their project: a bi-cen-tennial pageant consisting of five segments and commercials written by Mask and Script Members kept these girls, Mrs. Gerrond, all home ec. classes, and Mrs. Block busy. Brenda doesn't think Lydia's Lye Soap is as good for washing union suits as Patti says it is. Melanie Snyder served as commentator throughout the play. 63 Frankie and Johnnie tell their children they can't go out on Halloween night because of all the trouble kids get into just riding around.

I'm gonna get a jacket like that next year. Besides being a cheerleader, Laura was chosen to represent N.H.S. as Track Queen. During the Christmas Party, Mark seems to be wondering when they will figure out that he has it. Well, are you gonna marry me, or not! Now that's what we call putting it together! 69 Why am I the only one that is always ready! 70 Using every available study hall minute are Mark, Greg, and David.
