Senior Class Historij In the year of 1923 a peppy class of Frosh entered Norfolk High School. Although they were very shy at first they soon became accustomed to the strange surroundings. They elected Walter Brennan as President, Sylvia Manske, vice president, and Kenneth Covert, secretary annd treasurer. To the surprise of the Seniors they chose blue and white for class colors. The second semester Marie Bjuhn became president, Frank Baker vice president and Dorothy Verges secretary and treasurer. Although the class of 1927 held few social events, they planned for many in the future. In the fall of 24 they elected new officers. They were Robert Young, president. Dorothy Verges, vice president, and Marcus Klug, secretary and treasurer. Miss Russell and Mr. Bell acted as sponsors. The outstanding events of this year w ere their picnic at the first of the year and a class party in the gym. This peppy all round outfit resolved into the Junior Class in September of ,25. They elected Kenneth Covert as president, Gerald Allen as vice president, Helen McGrane as treasurer and Marcus Klug as secretary. They lost to the seniors as usual in the Hare and Hound race but this was the closest race In history. The other main features of the year was a Junior picnic and the Junior-Senior Banquet. The classes went to sea and all enjoyed the treasures of Capt. Kidd. This ended a very successful year for the Juniors. The sponsors were Miss Sherman and Mr. Kiester. As the year progressed old Father Time called these Juniors back to school and they were then the Senior class of 21. They went right to work, and in due time elected the able president Fred Carrico, Joe Klug vice president, Marie Bruhn secretary and Dorothy Verges as treasurer. The Hare and Hound race came next in the list of good times and the “Hares” were not to be found, as usual. As time passed the seniors held the annual Junior-Senior mixer and with the clever costumes and entertainment the event was enjoyed by all. Then came Slouch day—many w'ondered where the seniors got the rigs. It was one grand day to all of High School. As usual the seniors sneaked away from school and enjoyed a day of fun. The Senior class play, “Seven Keys to Baldpate”, proved a big success—the sponsors were Mr. Burkhart and Miss Kock. The seniors were exiled from school forever on May 29, but they all feel that they would like to live those happy days over in N. H. S. thirteen 'WeifllLESTONE 1927 J- ■ MINNIE J.

Here’s for more events of this kind! Milestone S=—-;92r=-=— Senior Class Will We, the members of the Senior Class of 1927, having duly accomplished all prescribed for us in Norfolk High School, upon leaving, do hereby bequeath our several abilities to those fortunate underclassmen who are destined to follow in our steps. Therefore after much discussion, argument, etc., we have decided to leave the following articles, talents, and accomplishments to our fellow schoolmates: Firstly, we bequeath to our immediate successors, the Juniors, our extraordinary beauty (?), our excellent deportment (???), the odors of the chemistry lab, and the privilege to use our class yell whenever we so desire. Upon our beloved sister class, the Sophs, we bestow our dignity, judgment, and all the knowledge we have gained in N. H. S. To that needy class, the Frosh, we gladly give our great amount of experience and our endless supply of originality. Our sagacious and competent leader, Fred Carrico, who has brought us safely through thus far, steps forward and bequests that the dignity and authority of his position be placed under lock and key for future reference where some unfortunate executive may make use of the same. Joe Klug, our vice-commander wills his athletic ability to Lyle Bell; he takes Irene along. Marie Bruhn, our worthy scribe, leaves her bass voice to Harold Michaelson, where she knows it will be well cared for. Our custodian of the money bag, Dorothy Verges, wills her footlight ability to “Tiny” Rottler. The leaders now finished, we turn to the common herd. Jerry Allen leaves school, but not Terry. Irene Avery leaves with Joe but her typing ability is willed to Paul Ockerman. Jeff Banta leaves to go into partnership with John D. in the oil game. Marvin Barritt wills his position as Ambassador at Large to Paul Elsasser. Beryl Beal leaves Erdman Skiff to some one less fortunate than she. Elmer Behmer wills his curly locks to Rueben Uecker. Bill Berner leaves his nickname “Weir” to Marvin Best. Clifford Biermeier says he won’t leave anything; he deserves all he ever made. Ida Blele leaves with the rest. Fail Bohne leaves the Junior Money Bag. He doesn’t know whether it has a deficit or not. That remains to be seen. Gilbert Braasch wills Loretta Rice to some other good looking fellow. Jimmy Fleming bequeaths his noted ability as an “excuse maker” to Ned Pickett. Roland Fraser is glad to leave—because 'Marie has been waiting for him for a long, long time. Ralph Grim asks that the student body does not forget his papa’s ice cream factory. Adelle Groesbeck skips out with Spence. Helen Harrison wills her “A’s” to Paul Charlton with the hope that he will cherish them. Betty Haitwell and Anna Kell leave their places in the “bread line” to-those who are fortunate enough to get there first. Harry Henkins bequeaths his fame as a debater to Dick Carrico. Lawrence Hines wills his place in the normal training class to Edward Perry. Bob Horrocks leaves us, covered with track medals. Genevieve Hoskinson, Maybelle Muller, Clara Muller and Leona Winter take their type records with them; however they leave the type-writers. Pearl Ferris wills her perfect grammar to Helen Wait. Kenneth Covert wants to stay, but Sylvia won’t go without him. Junior Brandt says he refuses to leave anything, but will share whatever he possesses with Hazel. Randall Brownell leaves his ability as a musician to John LaVelle. Bill Butterfield takes everybody’s books he can grab, for fear that during the long years to follow his education may be neglected. Harold Chandler bequeaths his curly red locks to Frank Bahr. Zeldamae Cook leaves, but she’ll keep tab on Vic, never fear. = } -V f twenty-sev n ) Senior Class A ill-� Continuecl F1J Donisthorpe needs must leave, but he duly informs us that he will not give Lluabeth to anyone—however worthy such a person might be. k Marian Behmer, Minnie Amende, Lillian Dunn, Paula Buntrock and Scdonea Dossow will their boisterousness to the Glee Clubs—aren’t you glad, Miss Sanders’ leave NaH buf’thev Jens n’t Mar ret Katzer and Lillian Lawrence hat 'to leave N H.

And now we’re Juniors—‘me and you’, Of Norfolk High.” To live again those carefree lives that only high school Freshmen can! Our entrance in 1924 was of the usual type, thinking ourselves, as most Freshmen do, subordinates only to the faculty. However, after we found this theory slightly pseudo, our sponsors gathered us together for the purpose of choosing officers. The banner of the Frosh was most ably supported by Harry Salter, president; Jack Maylard, vice president; Stanley Donner, secretary-treasurer, and Kathryn Stitt, publicity reporter. Paul Charlton succeeded Jack Maylard as vice president at the beginning of the second semester. Defying the colors most appropriate for us, we chose old rose and grey. The social activity developed into a party which we enjoyed as only typical Freshmen could. When the lure of school and its interests became insistent, these now-weather-beaten students, minus the shine of the year before, entered upon their duties of Sophomore life. The most urgent of which was the election of officers: Stanley Donner as president, Paul Ockerman as vice president, and Kathryn Stitt as secretary-treasurer. It was fun, this business of being Sophomores, and entertainment was lacking in no degree. In the fall it was a hike to Black Bridge, in January a large party in the Gym and, as (Continued on (Mure thirty-seven) twenty-nine t iJIilestone . S 1927 Mh'haeKon Barotz Mayer Bathke Blakt-man W.

Miss Knight, Miss Creamer and Mr. Burkhardt acted as sponsors. And still the road broadens out, the span of years has made these aspiring people an efficient group of Juniors. In the course of a few weeks Warren Montgomery as president, Robert Truex as vice president, Roma Steinmier as secretary, and Earl Bohne as treasurer, became the officers. Very soon afterwards a challenge was received from the Senior Class for the Annual Hare and Hound chase. As a result, we congratulate the Seniors—“just across the river.” We successfully presented “Babs”, a credit to the “Purple and White”. Entertainment? Yes, but on roller skates. Robert Truex became president at the close of the first semester. Under the guidance of Miss Durland, Miss Crook and Mr. Drummond, the Junior-Senior Banquet was very successfully held in Hotel Norfolk. t thirty-seven y e Milestone S 1927 Sopk omore Class thirty-eight I? ? ifllLESTONE v = 92r=5— Freskman Class rx thirty-nine ifllLESTONE In the Fall of 1925 a horde of green Freshmen entered Senior High School and immediately began to strive for higher things. However, they had to be organized in order to do this. Consequently a Freshman Class meeting was called and they elected for their president, Jeanne Pasewalk; for their vice president, the most courageous James Simpson; to Geraldine Schelly, their history recorder, they gave the honor of secretary and treasurer. Being a very ambitious group many of them passed to the Sophomore stage in one semester, including their officers. In 192fi, at the beginning of the year, the Sophomores gathered together to elect officers, and after a heated election in which two or three ballots were cast, they finally elected Dick Carrico, president; Connie Rice, vice president; Ran Ireland, secretary: and Irma Baker, treasurer. Miss Brown, Mr. Drummond and Miss Knight were their sponsors. They chose for their class colors, old rose and gray. Two successful parties were held, one during each semester. The class had a great deal of pep and enthusiasm, and promises a remarkable future for the Junior Class of 1928. Last September, a swarm of future Presidents and first ladies of the land blew into the doorways of old N. H. S. with really high ideals. Gazing wonderingly up and down the halls, bumping into their upper-classmen now and then, asking questions such as: “Where is 209?”, “How many floors are there?” etc., thus the Freshmen bravely proceeded with their High School careers. After a week or two of “excitement” the class elected officers, who were as follows: June Alice McNabb, president; Bill Baker, vice president; Ruth Ralston, treasurer; and Raymond Truex, secretary. The Freshmen are real proud of their sponsor group, consisting of Miss Creamer, Miss Hornady and Mr. Sinclair. During the year two enjoyable parties were given for the class.

The staff has faithfully attempted to produce an annual which will be representative of the school year. The work has been sponsored by Miss Wolford, and finances have largely been made possible through the cooperation of the business men of this city. forty-one JT a Milestone _ — .907 — Top Row: Skalowtky.

Through the kind co-operation of The Norfolk Daily News, where the paper is printed, the staff has been able to introduce several new novelties during the past year, and what accomplishments have been made by this year's staff have been due, to a great extent, to the untiring efforts of their sponsor, Miss Wolford. C. forty-two T ciHlLESTONE ■ —r Latin Club The purpose of the Latin Club is to interest more students in Latin; to enlarge the Latin vocabulary; to make a study of Roman life, art and literature, and to undertake to carry on conversation in Latin. The motto of the club is: “Crescat Scientia”, meaning “May knowledge increase”. Officers for the past year were: Bill Butterfield, president; Lorene Fleming, vice president; Leona Buckley, secretary; and Delorea Fleming, treasurer. Meetings were held once a month and consisted of a program followed by games. The one specific activity that the club was interested in was the Roman Banquet, held on the Ides, or fifteenth, of March. The banquet was held in the same style that characterized the banquets of the Romans years ago. t Ds forty-three = zy Milestone . S._. — Hi-Y Under the able direction of Mr. John G. Moore the two “Hi-Y” groups have carried on a program that is perhaps best described as intensive rather than extensive. Both groups had bi-monthly meetings in the High School building, luncheon being served by the High School cafeteria. The program then called for a brief business meeting and a period of discussion. Group I is made up largely of Seniors and Juniors, mostly members of the various athletic teams, with Gerald Allen as president, Archie Perry as vice president and Ransom Roman as chairman. Mr. Noyce was the Faculty sponsor of this group. Group II, with Stanley Donner as president, drew its membership from all four classes, and inclined more toward those students who ranked well up in scholarship, with less emphasis upon athletics. Elton Recroft was vice president and William Crane secretary and treasurer. Mr. Bute was Faculty advisor of this group. On the twenty-third of December the two groups united to give a Christmas party for the lads of the city from whom Santa Claus had not received any letters. The kids, the Hi-Y members and Santa Claus were unanimous in their piaise of the affair. The Spring of 1927 saw an orpheum staged by the cooperative efforts of both Hi-Y groups. The Norfolk Hi-Y was represented at Wayne in the district convention of the Nebraska Hi-Y. Not only that, but they so deported themselves that the delegates there elected Robert Stansberry as president of the district for the coming year. Each group sent its President to the State Y. M. C. A. convention at Grand Island on the 17th and 18th of February, 1927. forty-four T eittlLESTONE S_ .9?7— ■—r Top Bow: i’. RIm, H. Rlc 1. Potars. Sbrfler, Cook. Tern’. Scofield. L Fleming. 2m!

An outstanding accomplishment of the How Ling ’25 this year is the introduction of Maroon and White flags on Norfolk avenue in front of the business houses on days of home athletic contests. Several snappy parades were staged before athletic conflicts by this lively group. Through stunts given by the How Ling ’25 Homecoming Day activities last fall went over with a big boom. Several convocation entertainments were put on by these lads. Besides stunts between halves of football and basketball games. The How Ling ’25 orchestra was introduced by this group, and the musicians made many friends in Norfolk. A feature of the year’s activities was a pep rally presented over radio station WJAG in which the orchestra and boys had prominnet parts. forty-nix Milestone S-.' 1927 —■ I tendon.

Besides furnishing entertainment at school they have played at many dinners, as follows: Rotarians, Elks, Business Girls, American Legion, Izaak Walton League and at the Rotarian convention at Sioux City. They also presented a clever act at the Grand Theater.

Every Thursday afternoon sales were held at the High School to secure money to send representatives to the Conference at Lake Okoboji. At Christmas time the girls played hostesses to the poor kiddies of Norfolk and treated them to a very enjoyable time. The annual Christmas Pageant was given under the direction of the sponsors. The Mother-Daughter and Dad-Daughter Banquets were well attended and every one present gave evidence of having a good time. Last, but not least, will be Camp Sheldon, and this closes the program of the Girl Reserves of 1926-27. j£C. f forty-elaht Freshman G. R. Corps m First semester Freshmen G. R., sponsored by Mrs. A. E. Wolfe, have had some very interesting meetings this semester. They are led by Verna Boyd, the President. Other officers are: Louise McKibbon, vice president; Mildred Wilcox, secretary, annd Frances Hills, treasurer. The programs are all well planned by Leota Belle Hall, program chairman. The most important feature of the last five or six meetings has been the making of a patchwork quilt. Each girl makes her own patch, choosing her own design and color. When the quilt is finished it is to be sent to the Orthopedic Hospital at Omaha. A Mothers’ Tea is to be given the week before Mothers’ Day. Nearly all of the Freshmen Girl Reserves hope to go to camp, where they will finish up their work for the year. 2, } forty-nine Milestone 1927 Top Knw: � . S«‘hula. I owery, Ml � Sandrrx. Bnrarfoh.

During the Teachers’ convention in the fall, the girls sang for a group of supervisors and were well received. Just before Christmas holidays commenced the Glee Clubs, combined, presented “The First Christmas”, a cantata by Ira B. Wilson. The climax of the year came when the Glee Clubs gave a very pretty operetta, “The China Shop”, the leads taken by respective members of the organizations.

The exact terms of Fat Sing’s will are not to be made public for a year. In the meantime, a poor fisherman offers to sell his beautiful niece, Lotus Blossom, to Sing Fong. This results in the meeting of Lotus Blossom and Sing Fong, and —love at first sight. The populace is under the impression that Sing Fong is now the richest and most influential citizen, thus they elect him to the office of chief magistrate of Ping Pong. He is continually pestered by women who want to marry him. At last he resolves to marry none but a wealthy orphan, thinking to end his troubles. He however, is very agreeably and unexpectedly deceived in this, as he not only falls heir, after all, to the millions of his father, but to the idol of his heart as well. ffllLESTONE ■ 1927 T Tke Orckestra The Senior Orchestra is composed of twenty-eight pieces.

The play proper is the enactment of the story he writes, and proves to be a thrill from start to finish, since the scene of old Baldpate Inn is enlivened by the presence of robbers, blackmailing, ghosts and crooked politicians.

At the same time contests were held in seven other districts at McCook, York, Falls City, North Bend, Chadron, Sidney, and Kearney. The District III contest was the largest ever held— one hundred and thirty students competing. The school entering students were: Albion High School: Neligh High School; Wayne High School; O’Neill High School; St. Mary’s Academy, O’Neill; Pierce High School; Pender High School; Ainsworth High School; Tekamah High School; St. Edward High School: Battle Creek High School; Newman Grove High School; South Sioux City High School; Norfolk High School; and the Norfolk School of Business.

State Commercial Contest will be held at Hastings, Nebraska, on Friday, April 29. Norfolk will be represented by the twelve girls who won places in the District III Contest. T his will be the largest State Contest eyei held in Nebraska. Silver trophies are to be given to the schools winning first and second places. For two years Norfolk High School has held State Honors, and, although the competition will be stronger this vear, we hope to bring home the trophies. Stella Reisbig, first place winner in the Novice Typewriting, is working for the trip to New’ York City to the International Typewriting Contest next November. This trip is given by the Underwood Typewriting Company to the student in the Novice Class who wins first place in the State Contest with a speed rate of 50 or more words per minute.

To be eligible to membership one must have had one semester of Home Economics work. The officers of this year’s club were: Helen Wait, president; Lillian Klug, vice president; Geraldine Gillis, secretary-treasurer; and Miss Brown, Miss McNamee, and Miss Durland, sponsors. Two initiations were held, at which both old and new members had a good time. Just before Christmas vacation broken toys were secured from downtown stores, mended, and given to the Salvation Army for distribution among the poor kiddies. Recently a meeting was held for Junior High girls for whom a peppy program was arranged. A play, “Wanted: A Daughter”, was effectively presented in convocation. Brief business meetings were held every two weeks, at which short programs were given.

A short business meeting opened the evening’s program, and was followed by singing songs translated into French. After this, such games as “La Chat de la Ministre” and “Cherchez 1’ Objet” were played. When refreshments had been served, the assembly adjourned. The purpose of the “Double Treize” Club is to interest students in the French language and to make the study of that language more alive to the pupil. Under the able sponsorship of Mr. Drummond, this purpose has been accomplished. t flfty-nlnn Milestone •19271 S Spanish Club The first Spanish Club meeting was held January 24, 1927. Wayne Montgomery was elected president; Ethel Barritt, vice president; Lester K. Manthe, secretary and treasurer. Meetings are held twice a month, every other Monday. Meetings are conducted by a chairman who is elected the meeting before. Business comes first, which is carried on in English. Then the social matters are taken up and this must all be spoken in Spanish. The ones who do not speak in Spanish are fined. Spanish games are played and then refreshments are served. With the aid of a good sponsor and competent officers the Spanish Club has come to stay. Lester Manthe, Secretary. Social Science Club During the past year a Social Science Club has been established in N. H. S. under the influence of interested students and social science teachers. The aim of this club is to further the interest of the students of social sciences in that subject. Students whose grades are high in the branch of the social science they are studying and in which they are consequently most interested, are eligible. The club meets every two weeks. The ofticers for this year were: President, Joe Stowe; vice president, Helen Wait; secretary-treasurer, Evelyn Malm. The officers of the President’s Cabinet were: Secretary of State, William Butterfield; Secretary of Research, Carroll Brown; Secretary of Records, Wilhelmine Haley. The club is sponsored by the social science teachers. Having a worthy aim and commendable foundation, may it become one of the institutions of N. H. S. f nlxty ATHLETICS T oiUlLESTONE —1977— Athletics COACH HARSHBARGER Coach Harshbarger came to Norfolk High School from Webster City, Iowa, where he coached successfully for two years and he also served as physical director at Waterloo, Iowa, High School for one year. His records at these schools marked him as a man of efficiency and thoroughness, and in the one year that he has coached athletic teams in Norfolk, he has been known as a man of sterling qualities and abilities. He is a keen student of every sport and possessed with a charm of being able to instill into his men a spirit of clean sportsmanship and determination which has stamped the Maroon and White as “one of the hardest hitting bunch of clean sports that ever donned an athletic garb in the history of Norfolk High School”. “Teaching his men the game from the ground up” could be named as Coach “Don’s” slogan, because every one of his men knew the fundamentals of the game in their minutest detail before they were put on the field of play and the success of the Maroon and White teams this year can be largely attributed to that one factor. We can praise our coach none to highly and if expectations prove out, we will see some wonderful accomplishments in the years that follow and Coach Don Harsh-barger will be the means of truly placing Norfolk High School on the map of Athletic fame. sixty-one H ?e fUlLESTONE . S 1927 MR. NOYCE MR- BUTE Assistant Coaches NOYCE Coach Noyce’s services to Norfolk High have been indispensable and highly recom-mendable. Despite the fact that he was confronted with the task of teaching football and basketball to men who had only a small knowledge of the game, he produced a number of men who were graduated into the first team squad and show promise of wonderful achievements next year. He not only taught them the game from A to Z, but at the same time he instilled in them a spirit of confidence, determination, and clean sportsmanship, which was noticeable throughout the entire season. He will be a material asset to Coach Harshbarger next year and a credit to Norfolk High School BUTE Mr. Bute was Norfolk’s “gratuitous” assistant coach in football, and to say that he knew the game in its completeness would be “putting it mild”. He was a great aid to both Mr. Noyce and Coach “Don” and we can be justly proud of him. Our hats are off to you, Mr. Bute. nixty-two t Milestone ===_ The First Team Led by a clean, hard hitting captain and coached by a football genius, the first team not only won the majority of their games but also made it possible for Norfolk High School, a greater claim for sportsmanship honors than ever before. Ahead or behind, tired or untired, injured or uninjured, the Maroon and White always made it their duty to play the game square. Twelve of the first squad will make their debut in some college next year and the example that they have set for future N. H. S. teams will'be a goal to strive for and one of which we can always be proud. lxty-thr«v .T eiUlLESTONE S 1927 CAPTAIN KLUG—Full Back and Tackle A real leader, a feared tackier, yet liked by all. Joe played his last and best game against Lincoln, stopping the Lincoln backs without a gain is putting it mild. Joe was placed on the 2nd All N. E. and on the 6th All-State teams. CAPTAIN-ELECT JESS BEATON—Quarter Jess could be counted on to catch all punts, only dropped one during the season, and he not only caught them but he returned them many yards. His head work was never questioned by any. His trusty hands held the ball for place kicks. Jess is one of those valuable things done up in a small package. He will lead the 1927 team, and do a good job of it. nixty-four Milestone Sr1 1927 — 1 YOUNG—Half Bob is an all-around football player. He can punt, place kick, drop kick, pass, catch passes, return punts, tackle for keeps and use his head, all in one game. His greatest feat of the year was the return of the initial kick off against Columbus for an 85-yard run and a touchdown, thus living up to his nick-name, “Red Grange”. Bob was placed on several All-State Teams and on 1st N. E. team. He graduates this year. SCOTT—End Dick was probably the hardest worker on the squad. Always ready to do his best, which wasn’t a small amount. Dick had a habit of never missing practice which he lived up to. He played a real game against Lincoln; several times he stopped the much-tooted Packer behind the line of scrimmage. A wonderful example of a clean-cut H. S. athlete. He will graduate this spring. FRASER—Quarter and Half Bud, the headiest man on the team. He knew the duty of every man on every play and could be depended on to do his share well. When Norfolk held the little end of the score, Bud took quarter and shot plays like a machine gun. Bud didn’t miss a practice during the season. He will be missed greatly next fall. slxty-flve T bUllLESTONE S 1927 .--ST BERNER—Guard, Center, Tackle Bill—the utiliy man. Bill knew how to play, guard, tackle or center and could do any of them well. A hard worker is bound to ‘succeed, and that’s Bill. He graduates. BEHMER—End or Tackle Elmer filled in a big gap at tackle when Capt. Klug was shifted to the backfield. He fought like a tiger against men who outweighed him 40 pounds. Elmer was also a good end, in which position he ended the season. We will be without his services next fall. ALLEN—Half and End Jerrv, the boy all in a bunch, but the bunch contains T. N. T. Many a yard was gained by him. And when all the ends were injured, Jerry was shifted to that position, doing a good job while there. Jerry made a beautiful run for a touchdown against Lincoln but was called back as someone was in motion. He also graduates. sixty-six iillLESTONE . ■1927— CARRICO—Guard Fred received an injured hand in the West Point game which kept him from playing his usual game. He held his own in several games, using the one hand. Fred's fighting spirit helped the team a great deal. He played an excellent game against Lincoln and Columbus. Fred will be missed next year. KEEFE—Tackle Tom, the boy who made the opposing centers sleep and cry. All coaches look for men who will use their hands on defense, but few are found; Tom was an Ace at it. Everyone admired Tom’s fighting spirit and many young athletes will try to follow his example. He made All N. E. Nebr. team and 5th All-State team. This is Tom’s first and last football “N”, WILLIAMS—Center Art started out as a green, awkward Soph, but determination carried him to the center position on the first team. Art’s passes are perfect, not one bad one did he make. A Soph getting to play against such teams as Lincoln and Grand Island is enough to be said for him. Norfolk is certain of a good center for next year. He received Honorable Mention on All N. E. Nebr. team. ft sixty-seven 'WeffllLESTONE 1927 y R. STANSBERRY—Tackle Cob played his first varsity game against West Point and came through with a touchdown after blocking a kick, which won the game for Norfolk High. This big boy is a deadly tackle and the opponent generally gets up feeling blue after Cob hits him. He is never late to practice and always on hand when wanted. He received Honorable Mention on All N. E. Nebr. team, and beware of Cob next year. SPENCER WRIGHT—End Spence received a wrenched back during early season practice and did not fully recover until the Grand Island game, in which he hooked a pass from Young and scampered 30 yards for a touchdown. He also grabbed one for 35 yards in the Lincoln game which only lacked 6 yards of being a counter. The opponent generally just sent one play at Spencer's side of the line. He was placed on 4th All State team and received Honorable Mention on the All N. E. Nebr. team. He has played his last for N. H. S. PERRY—Guard Archie the thinker. This boy could always be depended on to do a specific job to the best of his ability and exactly as told. A thinking football player is an asset to any team. Here is an example for freshmen to pattern after. Archie battled for three years and won out by playing a real game his final year. He received Honorable Mention on All N. E. Nebr. team. t = sixty-eiKht eittlLESTONE m J927 —— D. CARRICO—Quarter or Half Little Dick, the slippery boy. His feet are here and now they are there. Always ready to fill any backfield man’s shoes and do it right. Dick will show his wares in 1927. HORROCKS—Tackle Bob—hardluck traveled with him all season. Injuries and penalties seemed to harbor with him. But when Bob did get in he was a tackle to be feared, a good ball carrier, and an excellent interference man. Bob has earned his last football “N”. JOHNSON—End Wayne received an injured knee in the early part of the season which handicapped him greatly during the season. One of the toughest tackles on the squad. A silent, but hard worker. A perfect trainer, who will bring great results next season. t sixty-nine 1 ■ I O MILESTONE N 1927 r f Top Row— oacli Buie. Northern . Weatbrrbolt. T. Young. Rot I let. Mcflrane. II Crane.

The fracas was evenly fought throughout and i ich a-plenty with thrills. The main feature of the game, and the deciding factor, was a blocked punt and recovery for a touchdown by “Cob” Stansberry in the last few minutes of play. SSttBSi Norfolk 16 — Columbus 7 The “Discoverers’ ” pirate ship was the second victim of the Maroon and White invasion, and fell before our warriors’ onslaught by a score of 16-7. The game was featured by an 80-yard run for a touchdown by Grange oung on the initial kick-off, and a terrific drive for a touchdown by Columbus immediately following. Norfolk 3 — Stanton 0 The first home game, and also the first really hard-fought conflict of the season. The fact that “real” football predominated is shown by the comparatively small score. This was probably due to the intense rivalry existing between the teams. Stanton played more consistent football; however, by using clever head-work and reserve power in the pinches. The Maroon and White carried the banner of victory from the field of conflict. Norfolk 2 — Neligh 0 In the last game away from home our warriors engaged in a hotly contested struggle with a team that held the distinction of not having had a point scored against them thus far, and had it not been for Archie Perry’s blocking a “Yellowjacket” punt behind the goal line the battle would probably have ended in a scoreless tie. Norfolk 0 — Fremont 7 The Homecoming game marked the first defeat for Norfolk, and although they outplayed the “Tigers” throughout most of the game, a trick play by Fremont in the third quarter, netting them a touchdown, gave 7 c Jfflll.FSTONF. —1977' them a lead which they managed to hold for the remainder of the game. The play was questioned by many fans and players, but was perfectly legitimate and gave them undisputed victory. 300$ Norfolk 6 — Grand Island 18 Battling a foe which outweighed us twenty pounds per man, and whose goal line was unblemished, our team won glory for themselves and for Norfolk High School when they held Grand Island to a score of 18-6. In scoring a touchdown against the “Islanders” we accomplished what larger and stronger teams had failed to do. Credit for this feat goes mainly to “Sway-back” Wright, who nabbed “Grange” Young’s accurate pass, and tore past several would-be tacklers to goal line. Jerry Allen made this touchdown more possible by his excellent interference at this point in the struggle. £3DS3 Norfolk 0 — Lincoln 19 When Lincoln and Norfolk met in conflict the 1926 football season was brought to a successful close. Eleven Maroon and White warriors engaged in a struggle which will long remain in their memories as one of the hardest battles ever fought on the gridiron. Although defeated 19-0, the score was much lower than what fans anticipated. The ability to check dangerous drives and register yards in return was illustrated by the determined Maroon and White athletics throughout the entire game. seventy-two Milestone S-- 1927 n Top Row: AmU. roach N’ojcr.

Basket Ball Season of 1927 t From a standpoint of finances and precentage of games won and lost the 1927 basketball season was far more successful than was anticipated in the beginning, and out of 19 games played, 10 were won and 9 lost. The regular scheduled games proved to be the most disasterous, and this was probably due to the fact that a system of play was inaugurated by Coach Harshbarger which was entirely new to the squad. This new system of play handicapped the team in the early encounters, but proved to be a puzzling obstacle to late season opponents and a material aid towards winning games. The Maroon and White went into Class A semi-finals at the Wayne tournament and Class B finals at the state tournament, where they upset the dope bucket in every game played. Five letter men return next year and under the tutelage of Coach “Don” the Maroon and White should make a strong bid for state honors as v ell as sectional honors. t seventy-three W)e iUlLESTONE : f CAPTAIN YOUNG—Forward fl FO Bob, the boy that sizzes—at least he did j 1 1 ) during the State Tournament. Bob was v ✓ the most consistent scorer on the team. r He was always in the way of the oppon- I ents, interrupting passes, breaking up i i shots and blocking shots. Bob’s favorite v 6 was his dribble-in shot. Bob was a won- I derful leader, having complete control of ft K 1 the boys both on and off the floor. He r I Jf was given Honorable Mention at the State I X Tournament. He certainly will be missed next year. CAPTAIN-ELECT “COB” STANSBERRY—Guard , “Cob” is a real guard, always getting 1 J the ball off the back-board and starting I ? J the offenses. A forward didn’t have much y chance against “Cob”, inside the foul line. This big boy will make a wonderful leader L A 1 next year and also a valuable player, as ViV he is a good shot, an excellent guard and a heady player. f neventy-four j T aiHlLESTONE N. : 1927 ■ SCOTT—Center I he flu” hit Dick during the early part of the season, slowing him up for a time, but once going he played a real game. Always getting the ball on follow-in shots, out-jumping his opponent, and using his head, were his specialites. He played a wonderful game against Holdrege at the State Tournament. Dick will be a Freshman at some University next year. PERRY—Guard or Forward Archie, the boy that has the same spirit while on the side-line as in the game. He could be seen on his knees during many a close game, urging his team mates to come through, and when he was called upon to do his share he was always ready and willing to do his l est. Archie was known as “dead-eye” during the practice sessions. “A quitter never wins; a winner never quits”, is Archie’s motto. DONISTHORPE—Forward A spirit such as Merritt’s is a great asset. He played very little during the season but who could tell it by his actions during a game or at practice? He is a clever shot and a good guard. His motto is, “All for one—one for all”—and all for Norfolk High. He will graduate this year. t Os seventy-five Milestone ■' — JOHNSON—Guard “I like that light-haired guard’s playing”, is the general comment when Wayne is on the floor. A clever passer, a good guard, and a sure shot are his accomplishments on the floor. He keeps himself in perfect condition at all times, which makes him the clean-cut athlete that he is. He will be a valuable man next year. McGRANE—Center or Forward Bruce, the long boy, started out as a green basketball player, but a worker always succeeds and Bruce did. He is a very good shot, generally registering when given an open shot. He has another year during which time he will show us his “stuff”. YENNEY—Forward Earny, a new man in Norfolk and a new man at basketball, but a good one. He came here at the beginning of the season and started as a second team man, but his willingness to work and his ability soon carried him to the first team. His best game was against Winnebago, at the Wayne tournament. Earnest has a head which functions as he plays. He has two more seasons to play for Norfolk High. _____ «evi nty-� lx Milestone g-1 ; 1927 ■ LU LOW—Forwa rd Ned, the small forward, weighing 130 pounds, and being 5-ft. 6-in. in height, overcame both these handicaps by fight and hard, earnest work. Ned was the cleverest man on the floor, always worrying his guard. Ned played just as hard on the second team as on the first, which enabled him to come up to the varsity team and earn his letter as well as helping Norfolk into the finals at the tournament. He has another year. IRELAND—Forward Dan was a beginner at basketball, and he did well considering this fact. Work seems to be a part of Dan’s daily routine on the floor, and the part of a comedian when work is done. To play against the State Champs while yet a Sophomore speakes well for Dan. He has two more years to play for N. H.

To say that any expected to make the first squad l efore the season came to an end would be a false statement; however, Lulow, Yenney, and McGrane, are examples of reserves who made that attainment and their efforts should serve as an inducement to others. All members of the team are either first or second year men except Fitch, who is a Junior, and we are expecting them back next year to make the 1928 basketball season one of which Maroon and White basketball fans may be proud. . tfC. f seventy-eight Gymnastic Team A new branch of athletics, known as the gymnastic team, was introduced into Norfolk High School this year, and largely through the efforts of Walter Steffen, head of the Boys’ Physical Education department. This branch of athletics is an outgrowth of the Physical Education department and much credit is due to Mr. Steffen for the accomplishments of this group of athletes as they were largely responsible for the success of gym nite and other gym undertakings. On March 18 this group of athletes engaged in a dual gym meet with Technical High School of Omaha, the first of its kind in the history of the state, and although outclassed in almost every event, they amassed a total of 9Y points which is a very creditable showing for their first attempt. Elmer Scott, the only letter man on the team, is a Sophomore, and has wonderful possibilities, while Schmiedeke will be lost through graduation. This will weaken the team materially. However, a better team is predicted next year as a larger number of students are taking deep interest and will be logical contenders for positions on the team next year. seventy-nine 'We Milestone 1927 Interclass Basketball Inter-class basketball this year proved to be far more successful than last year, and the games were more hotly contested than scores would indicate. Coach Harshbarger “landed” a number of first team candidates out of the tournament and a goodly number were “fished out” for service on the reserve squad. The Seniors were crowned champs of the “melee”, and this gives them permanent possession of the cup, as they have won the tournament for three successive years. FINAL STANDING Seniors Won 5 Lost 1 Pet. .833 Juniors 4 2 .667 Sophomores 4 2 .667 Freshmen 0 6 .000 Interclass Baseball Tournament The Indoor Baseball Tournament, sponsored by the Department of Physical Education, was probably one of the most exciting events of the year. The Seniors upset the dope bucket by winning every game and thus carried away honors in this sport for the third consecutive year. Joy Stephens captained the winning crew’ and the ability of his team to keep the lead throughout the tournament came as a huge surprise to the spectators, as the Juniors were doped as the winners.

The purpose of this organization is to increase the interest of as many girl students as possible in physical activities, both outdoor and indoor. Beginning with Soccer in the fall, they have a continuous and varied round of sports, including volley ball, basketball, baseball and track. The point system is used in determining membership. One hundred (100) points being the minimum for eligibility in the organization; five hundred (500) points second, or Pin Honor; eight hundred (800) points third, or Letter Honor. A chevron is awarded for every four hundred (400) additional points after a girl has earned her lettter. At present there are about seventy-five members in the G. A.

In the Morning After Breakfast Scientilts say that the human mind is capable of a keener perception of relative things while the day is still young. This, it would seem, should apply equally to relative values in goods needed for the home and the person. If one is capable of making selections before noon that are more in keeping with actual needs, the morning hours would appear to be the time for most satisfactory buying. Shopping can be done more leisurely during forenoons, especially on Saturdays, for, as a rule, this Store is less crowded than later in the day. Leisurely shopping usually avoids mistakes and makes your experience more generally satisfying.
