The Staff Dedicates The 1968 Eagle To Harry H. Linn Principal After 19 years in education, Harry H. Linn, principal, is leaving the profession. Mr. Linn began his teach- ing career at Ness High in 1949, and though he was president of the Federal Land Bank at Ness City from 1960 to 1966, he was on the school board, so there has been no severance with education in those 19 years. Officially, he has acted both as teacher and principal; unofficially, he has also been friend, counselor, and mediator. Those who have been associated with him are well acquainted with his philosophy of education - The pur- pose of an education should be to educate an individual to fulfill his responsibilities to society and to himself. Everything else is incidental. Students will remember the times they were admonished with Don't ever settle for second best; you don't want that, and praised with When you put your minds to doing something, you do it well. I think the evidence of this is in that trophy case. Both faculty and students stood a little taller every time he said, This is the best group of students and the finest high school in the state of Kansas. Everyone in the school system will miss Mr. Linn, and we think it is just possible Mr. Linn will miss every- one of us. 3

“ We Laughed As We Laboured Together This is Ness City High School, home of the Eagles. As in every school, there is a word to describe the atmo- sphere and people of NCHS. Ours is Pride . Pride in not only what we achieved, but also in what we tried to achieve. For without pride, we would have accomplished nothing. We of The Eagle Staff are proud to present Ness City High School, 1967-68. r Co-editors Duane Stukesbary John Clark Staff Ken Stoecklein Don Leiker Dale Wasinger Ken Stoppel Dirk Hopkins Stan Healzer Gary Huff Alan Munsch Dan Stecklein Janice Pfannenstiel Marlene Dinges Betty Pfannenstiel Mrs. Darlene Burditt Contents Administration Page 7 Organizations Page 17 Sports Page 33 Music Page 51 Seniors Page 61 Juniors Page 73 Underclassmen Page 77 Grades Page 81 2 Adviser Mrs. Jan Gantz
