They felt big when thev started to school that morning but somehow they shrank before the day was over and felt about as small as when in the first grade. On the third day there was a little diversion when a cat strolled into the assembly, and they forgot for a while that they were young and bashful. The officers that year were: President. Ted French; Vice-President, Carl Gettman; Secretary, kathryn McGrane Treasurer, Ethel Schram. Thanks to the sponsoring of Mr. Christenson, they got a little attention, and when spring came they felt that the worst was over. Officers chosen for the Sophomore year were: „ . President, Ethel Schram; Vice-President, Ira Craven; Secretary and Treasurer, Lloyd King; with Miss Arnold and Mr. Wells as sponsors. They all had good times that year at the picnics .ind parOes. that they were distinguished as a class. The hares and hounds nearly ate each other up on the famous race. ..... . A oc _lov About that time they moved into the new high school and gave the class play Poman-der Walk”.

H. S. After several days of getting acquainted a meeting was held. Don Donisthorpe was elected President; Martha Barrett, vice-president; and Laurence Parker, secretary-treasuiei. Contrary to the customary green and white, this unusual class chose orange and blue for their class colors. During the year a party and a picnic were held, these being the foundation for three more years of pep. The following year these once bashful freshmen returned as Sophomores, a trifle bolder and better versed in the ways of High School Life. Looking forward to another successful school year, they chose as officers Bill Nims, Lillian Smith, Claudia Remy, and Cecil Palme. The Sophomores were a lively bunch, as everyone soon discovered from their peppy parties, participation in athletics and other school activities. In the natural course of events these Sophomores became the present progressive Juniors. Realizing their need for expert leadership they elected Durward Barnes, president; Jimmie Covert, vice-president; Nellie Mason, secretary; Mildred Rock, treasurer. Almost at once the Juniors gained distinction by winning the special class issue of the No-Hi-So. Their good sportsmanship was proven when they lost the Hare and Hound Race to the Seniors. Their loyalty was not only confined to their class but much school spirit was also evident, as was shown by the active part taken in school activities. Although the Juniors have accomplished much in their three years of High School life, a great deal more may be expected from them as their mott -“Not at the top, but climbing,” implies.

Mararitz The MILESTONE 1924 Sophomores Sophomores The MILESTONE 1934 Sophomore Class History 3T was in the year of 1922 that a small group of wayfarers called the Freshman Class set sail on the good Ship Self-Confidence and turned their faces steadfastly toward Old N. H. S., thinking it only a small sphere in the many worlds to be conquered. But, alas, the Good Ship Self-Confidence was wrecked on the rocks of Realization, as these adventurers began to see that instead of being welcomed with open arms and the town band, they were expected to shift for themselves as every other Freshman Class has done since the beginning of time. By the end of the first two hours they all felt very conspicuous, very small, and very, very green. However, encouraged by the fact that green things grow while ripe things rot, they called a meeting and proceeded to elect Ben Davenport and later Frances Coyle, for President; Betty Hinson, vice-president; Melba Johnson, treasurer and Floyd Seder secretary. They didn’t do much that first year, though they were a pretty lively bunch. However, this year, since they have exchanged the long suffering name of Freshman for the higher dignity of Sophomore, and as the boys have all blossomed out into long trousers and the girls are doing their hair up (or off), this little clan decided it most fitting to give a party. So, after choosing the officers, who were: “Floyd Seder, persident; Bob Hand, vice-president; Loretta Fredereick, secretary; and Alice Rasmussen, treasurer; they all donned hiking togs, and took a hike out to the black bridge, and with games, and stories, and eats, passed a very pleasant time. The class is hoping the end of this story will be in accordance with the beginning, and they will “all live happily ever after.’’ thir ty-� ix The MILESTONE 1924 Freshmen Freshmen thlrty-sevf The MILESTONE 19 4 Freshman (lass History AN one of those beautiful days in September the Senior High School extend- ed a hearty welcome to the class of 1927. As all previous classes had done, this group of “freshies” wandered aimlessly about the halls in search of class rooms, assemblies and sympathetic upper classmen. Finally, when all bewilderment was overcome, the class organized and elected Walter Brennan, president, Sylvia Manske, vice-president; and Kenneth Covert, secretary and treasurer. Blue and white were chosen as the class colors. On the evening of February 2nd, the Freshmen enjoyed their first party. After an entertainment in the auditorium the party adjourned to the gymnasium, where relay races and games furnished the amusement. At the end of the first semester the older freshies added to their ranks about sixty-five inexperienced graduates of Junior High. Because of the advancement of the Freshmen officers to the Sophomore class, tne class elected a new group of officers who were: Marie Schram, president; Frank Baker, vice-president and Dorothy Verges, secretary and treasurer. The Freshman class is represented in various organizations and activities in the High School, and they have shown every one that the future holds bright prospects for them. thlrty-eiKht (Xthletics The MILESTONE 1924 JOOTBALL Coach Thomas graduated from the Earlham High School, Earlham, Iowa, where he took part in track and football.

Blum To the 1923 Team By Coach Thomas Green, with the exception of a half dozen men, willing, energetic, grainy, and unflinching, this squad was excellent material with which to work. Clean, honest, courageous and ready for self sacrifice, they were and will ever oe an honor to Norfolk High School, and the families from which they came. Doing better as a team than anyone had hoped, achieving greatness at the end of the season, they demonstrated to all who watched them play, what hard consistent work will ’ . With never a thought of what the score would be, with a willingness to fight until the last whistle blew, they met their opponents as “fighters” should, with one expression, “We’ll die fighting.” That these men have added to the respect in which Norfolk High School is held throughout the state; that they or their successors are welcome, wherever these boys have played, is a tribute they have earned and which should endear them in the hearts of Norfolk High School and all its patrons. This from one who has lived with them day after day through the rough and tumble, hilarity and disappointments of a football season; an experience which brings out all that is bad as well as all that is good in a man. forty The MILESTONE 1924 Kill . iUttuimn.

Adamson The Reserves The Reserves were of great value to the Norfolk High School this year, making possible the wonderful first team developed by the great coaching ability of Mr. Thomas. The Reserves played only two games during the season, both with the Newman Grove first team, winning the home game by a score of 12-0, and losing at Newman Grove by a score of 12-10. Without the Reserves there would be no real first team. It is their undying spirit that gives the first squad the practice which is most needed. The Reserves took on an altogether different attitude this year, reporting every night, rain or shine. N. H. S. is proud of the fact that so many boys participated in the 1923-24 football season. forty-one The MILESTONE 1924 CAPTAIN LLOYD SCHRAM “BRUTUS” Right Half It was Lloyd’s indomitable spirit which enabled him to lead the team through one of the most successful season’s in the history of Norfolk High School. Without doubt “Brutus” is the fastest and shiftiest man on the team, and his ability to swing around the ends with or without interference stamp him as one of the best half-backs in the state. His passes were above reproach; he was a veritable “pile driver” on line plays and a strong player on defense. Kvery Norfolk opponent will remember his end runs and “tiger like” spirit on defense. He always came up with a smile and was good for another yard any time. “Brutus has played four years for N. H. S. and captained the team two of these years. He will live long in the memory of every N. H. S. student. LLOYD SCHRAM R. H. R. 157 lbs. N. N. N. X. WILLIAM KLUG “SPEED” Left Half Captain Elect A fighter from the first whistle until the game ended. He was the hardest hitter in the backfield and always registered a gain when called upon. Injuries kept him out of several games, but the score has looked different in every game since he returned to the lineup. The word “down” isn’t in his vocabu-larv. He has another year to wear the moleskins for N. K S. and as captain will make himself well known in that time. LAWRENCE MALM “SPIKE Right End Plaving his fourth year for N. H. S., Sp.ke has been a tower of strength both on offense and defense. His regular position is end, and Norfolk fans believe “Spike” is head and shoulders above any other end in the State. He is an ideal “triple threat” man, and is a hard hitter when plugging the line. His punts average around fifty yards, and usually land out of bounds. Spike has added many points to Norfolk’s total by drop-kicks. N. H. S. will long sing praises to this athlete. BILL KLUG L H. B. 159 lbs. N. N. LAWRENCE MALM End 176 lbs. N. N. N. N. forty-two The MILESTONE 1924 JACK BLUM “SHIMMY” Left End Shimmy has held down the wing position in true veteran form. He plays a good game defensively and turns the plays in. Covers the ground like an antelope when down under punts, and is a veritable “well” when it comes to receiving passes. Jack’s end will be hard to fill next year. JACK ItU M Knd 154 lbs. N. X. GLENN DAVIS “DAVY” Quarterback Davy was a regular field-general, using excellent choice of plays, and thrilling the fans many times with his wonderful return of punts. A “midget” in size, but “Davy’s” head was filled with all the requisites of a good football player. “Davy’s” football career will never die out of the memory of N. H. S. students. ADOLPH GETTMAN “CUPIE” Left Guard A man that knows not the meaning of punishment. Under every play on defense, and he never fails to open a hole on offense. They take wings and go over “Cupie” to gain through his position. The “Fightingest” player Norfolk has had the privilege of owning in many seasons. forty-thr • GLEN DAVIS Quarter Back 121 lbs. X. X. The MILESTONE 1924 orfolk 62, O'Neill 0 The lid was pried off the 1923 season in Norfolk camp when the Norfolkans met and defeated, in easy style, the high school team from O’Neill. Norfolk scored in the first minutes of the game, and from then on there was no doubt of the superiority of the local team. End runs by Captain Schram, line smashes by Klug and Best, as well as the beautiful passes success fully executed with Malm and Blum of the receiving end, were the features of the game. Norfolk 54, Albion 0 Albion was the second team to go down in defeat at the hands of the Norfolk team. As in the O’Neill game the Norfolk machine took advantage of every break of the game and swamped the Albion grid-sters with ease. Again Captain Schi-am was a shining light, getting away for end runs ranging from twenty to fifty-five yards in length. Some excellent passes were completed to Blum and Malm for touchdowns, while the defensive work of the whole Norfolk team was a feature of the game. Broadstone and Michaelson played a clashing game at the tackle positions and were very ably aided by their comrades in the center of the line. BEN DAVENPORT R. Guard 147 lbs. N.

Norfolk, clearly outplaying the Stanton team at all times, counting touchdown after touchdown only to be called back by the officials, was forced to leave Stanton with the score against them. Norfolk cares little what the score was, for there is no question in the minds of the Norfolk backers as to which team was the better and who won the forty-four Fremont 21, Norfolk 0 Fremont gave Norfolk the first real defeat of the season in one of the cleanest games played on the Fremont field in many years. The only penalty called throughout the game was for an offside play. Fremont presented a baffling shift to the Norfolkans and got away with a 14-0 score at half time.

The MILESTONE 1924 started the second half with more pep and played on even terms with the smooth working Fremont team, holding them to a single touchdown. The line-up was without the services of three regulars, Klug and Best in the back field and Blum at end. Norfolk’s only chance to score came late in the fourth quarter on a pass that was intercepted on the five yard line and Fremont punted out of danger. llarlinglon 7, Norfolk 6 Hartington continued her march toward the claim for state championship when the invaders turned what would have been a tie game into a one point lead with a goal after touchdown, when a Norfolk player was reported offside on the try for point. Norfolk scored early in the first quarter despite the muddy condition of the field, and from then on the two teams fought back and forth and up and down the field, with neither showing any advantage over the other. Late in the third quarter Hartington scored on an end run and fake pass, running about sixteen yards through several listless tacklers and tucked the ball behind the goal posts. Norfolk 45, Pierce 0 The Norfolk eleven defeated the Pierce High School team by a score of 45 to 0. The score was piled up in two periods. The Pierce team did not wish to continue the game after the second quarter, due to the injuries of several star players. I’AT CRAVEN 131 lbs. N. FRED CARRICO Tackle 154 N. Norfolk 40, Columbus 3 The Columbus game, believed to be the hardest on the schedule turned out to be just the opposite. Coach Rich’s Discoverers proved to be no match for the fighting, smooth working machine the Norfolkans presented. Despite the fact that Columbus scored in the first two minutes of play, by intercepting a Norfolk pass and drop kicking a neat goal from an angle on the twenty yard line, the Discoverers offered little resistance to the sweeping end runs of Captain Schram, the terrific line plunging of Klug and Malm, who had been shifted to the fullback position, and the long forward passes of Schram to Blum. Davis played a whale of a game as field general and returned punts beautifully. MARION BROADSTONE I. Tackle 169 lbs. N. : forty-five : The MILESTONE 1934 The Norfolk line was powerful and they presented a defense in character much like that of Nebraska University in their late encounters with Notre Dame and Syracuse. Norfolk 3, So. Omaha 0 Long will the memories of the South High game remain in the minds of the Norfolk Fans. This game saw the Norfolk line pitted against a team whose line out-weighed them twenty pounds, but it also says a team determined to win. Led by the speedy work of captain Schram, Norfolk stamped itself as one of the stronger teams of the state. Undaunted by the number of times South High threatened to score the determined Norfolk team worked as a single unit, and many times took the ball dangerously close to scoring. In the first few minutes of the fourth quarter Malm placed a beautiful drop kick, winning the game 3-0. Norfolk 25, West I hunt 12 In this game replete with thrills Norfolk fans saw the Norfolk team close the 1923 season in a blaze of glory when they defeated the strong West Point team 25-12, thus ending one of the most successful seasons for a Norfolk team in several years. The Norfolk team found their strength and marched steadily toward the goal line. On the pass, Schram to Blum, the Norfolkans scored the first touchdown. After a series of line plunges and end runs, Schram again counted with a beautiful end run. Neither team was able to score during the second quarter, and the half ended: Norfolk, 12; West Point, 0. Passes were successful again and in short order the visitors had completed one to the left end, counting their first touchdown. A second counter was made a few minutes later by the visitors on a long pass over the center which knotted the count. The fourth quarter was a see-saw affair, both teams punting frequently. Malm electrified the fans when he tore through a big opening in the opponents’ line made through the efforts of Gettman, and raced sixty yards along the side line for the third touchdown. A few’ minutes later Michaelson, husky tackle for Norfolk, blocked a West Point punt on the 30 yard eugene michaelson line and fell on the oval for the last touch-dowm of the I .

Antlomai Norfolk’s basketball team started its 1923-24 season when Coach Thomas called the first practice the first week in December, with four letter men back: Marsh, Captain, Davenport, Malm and Schram. With these men Coach Thomas combined the test material into a basketball aggregation which was the most successful team in the history of Norfolk High School. Norfolk won every game on the schedule and was called the “wonder team” of Northeast Nebraska, winning the District Tournament easily. In the State Tournament, N. H. S. won easily from University Place, but was defeated by Omaha Central, the runners up of the tournament. Four men were recognized in mythical teams, Warren Marsh being chosen for the second time as captain of the All-Northeast Quintet. Lawrence Malm was also selected for center on the classA team. If it had not teen that it was against the ruling to select more than two from one team, Carl Schefold would have received the same honor. Although Carl did not receive first selection, he was placed on the second class A team. On the all-state team, picked at the state tournament, Ben Davenport was selected as one of the forwards on the second team. Considerable credit is due Coach Thomas for his feat of turning out a team of such caliber. The use of the short pass and the coaching ability of Mr. Thomas was largely responsible for the exceptionally successful season. forty-nine The MILESTONE 1924 Warren Marsh — Captain, Forward By Coach Thomas Playing his third and last year on the team, Warren stamped himself as one of the most valuable athletes Norfolk High School has ever known. As Captain for the past two years he has accomplished, through the help of his teammates, a feat never before accomplished by a Norfolk team—undefeated —during the entire season. To Warren goes much of the credit for the successful season just closed. He was a strong offensive man, and won the respect and admiration of every crowd he played before. He was chosen as Captain of the Northeast Nebraska All-Tournament Team, and placed at the forward position for the second time, following the Wayne Tournament. Norfolk thinks he was good enough for the All-State team, and expects to see his name in future College line-ups. The = MILESTONE 1924 lien Davenport— Captain-Elect Ben has held down the forward position this year with the best of ability. He is always a good consistent player, holding up his share of the scoring. Ben’s floor work was always noticeable for his fast and clean playing. In the State Tournament, Ben was the only player on the team to gain recognition, where he was placed on the all state second team. Ben is Captain-elect and shows possibilities for even better playing next year than he did this year. Norfolk 11, West Point 10 Norfolk’s first game of the season was with West Point. The game was somewhat ragged, especially in regard to the Norfolk passing, also, a marked inability to hit the basket. The game showed Coach Thomas, the weakness of the Norfolk quintet which was greatly improved Ijefore the harder games of the season. Norfolk 18, U ayne 15 In the second game of the 1924 season Norfolk took a closely contested game, from the first whistle it was a clean hard game. Even with the Wayne basket tossers fighting desperately to win, Norfolk nosed out winner. Norfolk 17, Newman Grove 8 On Jan. 25, Norfolk journied to Newman Grove. Norfolk took the lead with Newman Grove being unable to find the basket and with the close guarding of N. H. S., Newman Grove was held scoreless throughout the first half. In the third period Norfolk lost its fight. Newman Grove rallied, making 7 points. Norfolk then pepped up during the later part of the game and sank four baskets in rapid succession, cinching the game. Norfolk 17, Albion 6 In the second game of the two day trip, Norfolk won from the Albion aggregation 17 to 6. Norfolk again started the scoring, and although they had to play a hard game, they were not in danger any of the time. In the second half Norfolk came back with the old fight and maintained it throughout the game, which was largely responsible for N. H. S. winning. Norfolk’s defense was good, keeping Albion from getting within close range of the basket. - f 'fty-one 1 ■ ■- ■■ ■ - LLOYD S HKAM The MILESTONE 1924 Norfolk 16, Madison 11 The Norfolk basketeers won their fifth victory by defeating Madison 16-11. Madison started the scoring by sinking a ringer from the foul line. Norfolk was unable to hit its stride and the Reserves replaced the first squad in the second quarter. The first half ended 11-9. The regular line-up went in for the second half, but played no better than in the first period. Norfolk seemed a trifle over confident, following the four straight victories. Norfolk 20, Fremont 16 In a fast and hard fought game the Norfolk High School team defeated a most worthy foe, in the Fremont High team, by the score of 20-16. Save for a brief time at the opening of the first quarter when the scrappy Fremonters sallied forth with 5 points in a quick succession, the Nor-folkans led throughout the entire contest. Davenport found the ring for two free throws shortly followed by a toss from Captain Marsh and a follow up shot in a few seconds by Davenport again, that gave the Norfolkans a single point lead. Playing on even terms the first quarter ended with Norfolk on the long end of a 6-5 score. Captain Marsh showed more brilliant work during the second quarter and good team work on the part of the other players increased the lead to 13, while the Fremonters were trailing at 9 points. Determined to turn defeat into victory, the Fremonters staged a wonderful come back in the third stanza, but the fighting Norfolkans were not to be denied a victory and maintained a lead. Fremont succeeded in reaching the 13 points with the Norfolk team on 14, but this rally was soon counteracted by a volley of shots from Captain Marsh and Davenport, that ran the score 18 high. Malm found the hoop from the center of the floor in the closing minutes, and tucked the game away. Norfolk 22, Pierce 7 The Norfolk high cage team easily defeated the Pierce quintet by a score of 22 to 7. Norfolk took the lead after the first few minutes of play and maintained it throughout the game, keeping Pierce from scoring in the first quarter. The second period started with the whistle and proved even faster than the first half, as the Maroons wanted to make good their statement of their intent to beat Pierce three to one. 1 fifty-two — CARL SCHKFFOLD The MILESTONE 1924 Pierce was again held almost scoreless, making only three points, with Norfolk nearly duplicating the score of the first period. Norfolk greatly outclassed Pierce in every way and the pace which the Maroons set was too fast for the Pierce team. Norfolk 13, University Place 7 Norfolk High School won its eighth straight victory over the strong University Place five, defeating them after a bloody battle, 13 to 7. The largest crowd that ever witnessed a cage game in Norfolk, estimated at 600 or more, saw their favorites battle to the last and in a brilliant rally during the last half mount the ladder to victory despite the strong defense offered by the visitors. Captain Marsh started the scoring early in the first quarter, when he sank a neat ringer from well down the court. The invaders were not to be outdone, and soon Ball, their center, found the hoop for a dual count that brought the crowd to their feet with a snap. Malm was able to stick a counter through before the quarter ended, putting the locals in the lead at 4 to 2. The Norfolkans came back after the rest period and passed through the defense of the University Place team, scoring consistently on short, as well as long, shots. Marsh and Malm each found the ring for counters, bringing the score to 9-4, when Sheffold counted, through the foul line. The defense made by the locals was too much, making it necessary for the visitors to attempt shots from the center of the floor, none of which were good. Norfolk 38. Neligh 5 The Norfolk High School basket tossers easily defeated the fast Neligh Aggregation 38-5. Norfolk played rather loosely the first quarter, with Neligh having almost three tries at the basket to Norfolk’s one. During the second quarter Norfolk played a much better game, and with the beginning of the second half, Norfolk played real basket ball, sweeping the fast Neligh team off their feet. Schram broke his record when he scored his one basket of the season. Lloyd is not a showy basket shooter but he plays the old game. Another record was also smashed when Norfolk went through the season of twelve games, winning them all. This is the first team that N. H. S. has ever produced which has gone through the season free from defeat. EUGENE MICHAELSON flfty-thrae The MILESTONE 1934 District Tonrnamcn t Norfolk very easily won the championship of class A, in the Northeast Nebraska tournament, held at Wayne, February 21, 22 and 23, thereby bringing home the beautiful silver basketball given as the trophy. Carrol won the silver loving cup in Class B, and Chambers were the winners in Class C. Higher scores were made by the Norfolkans in the tournament than in any of their preceding games. In the first game, played Thursday, the Norfolk basketeers easily defeated the Wayne basket tossers by a score of 23 to 12. Wayne took the lead at the beginning of the game, and maintained it through most of the first quarter. Norfolk then found her stride, and made a series of counters, slowly forging ahead. The Randolph team, winners over Wisner, was the second to meet defeat at the hands of the strong Norfolk team by a score of 24 to 7. Randolph took the lead, as is usually the way of Norfolk’s opponents, but were not in the winning position long. Marsh sank a counter from past the foul line, and Davenport, true to his last year form, was able to sink baskets from almost any position on the floor. During this game, Norfolk’s team work was better than in any game of the tournament. The Norfolk-Scribner game, predicted to be the hardest game of the tournament proved very much the opposite, when N. H. S. walked away with the game by a score of 30 to 18. Again in this game the opponents took the lead, but were soon counteracted when Marsh shot a basket closely followed by a free throw. This started the Maroon and White and they steadily piled up the large scoi'e. The number of points by individual men, during the tournament, were: Marsh, f, 29; Malm, c, 27; Davenport, f, 24; Blum, c, 2; Scheffold, g, 0; Schram, g, 0. State Tournament Norfolk wras chalked to meet University Place in the first game, which proved an easy victory for the Maroon and White, the game ending 28 to 9. Norfolk walked away with them from the start, and was not in danger of University Place at any time. As the Omaha World-IIerald said, “Norfolk disposed of University Place without even mussing their hair”. The Maroon and White played an exceptionally good game and could shoot baskets from any position on the floor. With this brand of basketball playing, Norfolk was doped to easily w'in the state title. Everyone was taking of the N. H. S. “wonder” team. In the second game of the tournament, Norfolk was scheduled to meet Omaha Central. Again Norfolk was picked to win, but Omaha gained the lead from the first and piled up ten points to Norfolk’s tw'o during the first half. Norfolk was lost during this period and failed to find their stride of the day before. The second half started with Norfolk having the old fight, and the team work showed up much better. Most of Norfolk’s points were made by free throw's. Only one field goal, made by Captain Marsh, was chalked up for the Maroon and White. fifty-four The MILESTONE 1924 Basketball Schedule Norfolk 11 Norfolk 18 Norfolk 17 Norfolk 17 Norfolk 16 Norfolk 20 Norfolk 22 Norfolk 13 Norfolk 38 West Point ...... 10 Wayne _________ 15 Newman Grove_______ 8 Albion .......... 6 Madison ........ 11 Fremont _________ 16 Pierce ____________ 7 Uni.

Those entering the race were Clarence Schroeder, Gilbert Orr, Norris Schroeder, Louis Lederer, Willis Hedrick and Hubert Orr. Clarence Schroeder took first place, the time being 11:42. Gilbert Orr was a close second, having the race almost won when he dropped exhausted. He was helped up and was finally able to finish in second place, time 11:54. Norris Schroeder placed third, 11:58, with Louis Lederer taking fourth. The time was not as good as last year, when the Norfolk team took third in the state, but the time of the first four men this year was closer together as a group than a year ago. Norfolk finished fifth place in the state. Captain Victor Nenow was unable to run because of injuries. The MILESTONE 1924 Kaufman. R. King. Frederick. Atkins. Lilian Reuthcr. 8. t'eckec. Thayler.

There are certain requirements necessary. Eight hundred points are required in order to receive a letter. Exceptions have been made for the classes of 1924, 1925, 1926. Seniors only need 200 points, Juniors 300 points and Sophomores 500. A certain number of points are given for each sport: Basketball, Interclass and Color Tournaments, 100 points; baseball, 100 points; Socker, 10 points; Volley Ball, 100 points; 25 points extra for the winners of the tournament games. In 1924 only two sports were taken up, basketball and baseball.

Both organizations were present at every basketball game and presented several clever stunts in convocation which served to arouse more interest in the baskeball games. Much of their success was probably due to their able leaders, Marjorie Holtman and Allen Zurbrigen.

Everything goes nicely until the question of “Who is this Clarence” arouses the curiosity of all.

The reason for this was probably due to the fact that they were singing “Now I’ve Got Those Crazy Blues” for the boys have shown exceptional talent under the directorship of Mr. Chambers. Their talent has been displayed before the public in a concert given in the early part of the year and in the musical comedy “Once In A Blue Moon” given in May. OFFICERS Glenn Davis......

The extreme popularity of the Hi-Y is shown by its exceptionally large membership. There are four divisions of the club, thus making it more convenient to hold meetings. Each division has a dinner meeting every two weeks where all business is transacted and a bible discussion is held. The Hi-Y sponsored the annual “Father and Son” banquet held early in the year, and gave a Carnival in the spring to raise a fund to send some of their members to Camp Sheldon.

The Orchestra, under the leadership of Leo Schula has won great renown, for thev have played at every high school function and at various places in the community as well. Their fame, however, has not been confined to Norfolk for in the early part of the year they broadcasted from Omaha. Blacks tone Trio Short, snappy selections encored many times is the history of the Blackstone Trio, not only in Norfolk, but also in Newman Grove, Albion, Pierce, Wayne, and other towns where Norfolk has played basketball during the past season. They have done much to advertise N. H. S., and to portray the school spirit which was so evident this year. The MILESTONE 1924 Declamalory Con tests Declamatory work has come to hold a very important place in High School. This year many students came out for Declamatory and under the coaching of W. B. Anderson and his assistants Miss Johns and Miss Hinson, considerable talent was revealed. At the local contest, held February 16, this talent was favorably displayed. Of the many contestants in the humorous class, Regina Lyons took first place, Clarence Schroed-er receiving first place in Dramatics, and Nonas Schroeder first in Oratorical. March 21 the district elimination contest was held here. Only one of our contestants, Norris Schroeder, received a place. He was sent to compete in the Northeast District Contest held at Wayne in April. Commercial Contests The district commercial contest of District No. 3 was held in Norfolk, March 29, 1924. Representatives from Albion, Neligh, Pierce, West Point, Wayne and Norfolk taking part. The contests were held in Penmanship, Spelling, and Novice, Junior, and Championship classes of Typewriting, and Shorthand. The Norfolk contestants who took places were: Clarence Dick, first, and Cora Beal, second, in Champion Typewriting; Esther Carlin, first, and Dorothy Reuss, second, in Novice Typewriting; Ida Schmidt, second, Linda inter, third, and Arylene Moore, fifth, in Champion Shorthand; in Novice Shorthand, Mildred Rock received first place, Tom Le Ray, second, and Edwin Eckert, fifth; in penmanship, Eva Daniels received first, Clara Daniels, second, May Beal, third.
