Norfolk High School - Milestone Yearbook (Norfolk, NE)

Text from Pages 1 - 108 of the 1944 volume:

im MILESTONE YEAR BOOK of NORFOLK HIGH SCHOOL NORFOLK, NEBRASKA Editors: Beverly Busskohl and Susan Weber DEDICATION WE DEDICATE THE 1944 MILESTONE TO THOSE STUDENTS WHO ARE STRIVING TO PRESERVE DEMOCRACY THROUGHOUT THE WORLD Administration Most of the students of Norfolk High School have little realization of the amount of work that is done by the members who are in charge of the school’s administration. The administration of the Norfolk Public Schools is in charge of Superintendent Dr. Allen Burkhardt and the board of education. The members of the school board serve without pay for their many strenuous efforts in behalf of the school district. This group has jurisdiction over school district number two, which includes all the schools of the city of Norfolk. Their duties are many and varied. They elect the teachers, custodians, and secretaries, and determine all business transactions and policies of the district. Many of us do not realize the responsibilities that these gentlemen have. It is not an easy task to govern a school during these trying times. We, the Annual Staff of 1944, are happy to have the opportunity to give public recognition to them. Superintendent's Message My heartiest congratulations to Editor Beverly Busskohl, Sponsors Ruth Hepfinger and Lumir Geraer, and the Staff of the 1944 Milestone. The task of producing a Milestone is always a difficult one. Producing such a publication under war conditions is a real accomplishment. We owe a real debt of gratitude to these folks for keeping the line of Norfolk High School Milestones unbroken. My congratulations, too, to the graduating Seniors. No other Seniors have ever been faced with as many, or as real, temptations to quit school as have the Seniors who graduate in 1944. You have shown good judgment by staying in school. The possession of a high school diploma is the possession of a key which opens many doors leading to better opportunities. Present conditions emphasize more than ever before the necessity of finishing high school. For most of the boys in the class of 1944, the path leads toward military experiences. May your lot be as pleasant as possible, and may you soon return to civil life. Remember that war is a temporary thing; that peace is the real way of life. To those boys who do not qualify for military service, and to the girls, may 1 point out the importance of doing something worthwhile. You must almost at once choose between getting a job or going to college. If you feel that college cannot offer you anything of great value, or for some other real reason you feel it unwise for you to attend college, then pick your job carefully. Try to find some useful work that pays money, satisfaction, and pleasure. Remember that immediate gain does not always mean ultimate benefit. If you think you are of college caliber, and if you think college education can be of real value to you, then pick your college carefully. You should enter college with the idea of working hard and not only obtaining good things for yourself, but of also helping further the onward and upward march of civilization. The world has a long way to go. Your generation can and should help society rise above this present level. While it seems that the red light of war, disorder, and chaos is set against us now, remember that the green light will come on again, and that it is only during such periods that real progress can be made. Maybe yours is the generation we have been waiting for. Maybe you folks will find the way to keep the green light on always. Good luck to you all. Sincerely, ALLEN P. BURKHARDT, Superintendent. Principal's Message To the Students of NIIS: I am proud to say that you as citizens of Norfolk High School have shown yourselves to be good soldiers under the great stress of war. You have given of your time, talents and money to the winning of the battles against our enemies. Many of you are already in the Armed Forces of our great Democracy, and others are ready to join such ranks. Whether you are in the classroom or on the field, remember that it is always wise to build well for the future. Think with Alexander Pope who said, “Honor and shame from no condition rise; act well your part; there all the honor lies.” I sincerely wish for you, as young Americans, a blessed and peaceful world of tomorrow.

Walter Miner Dr. Allen P. Burkhardt J. W. Gillette Lillian Steffen-Robinette The members of the Norfolk Board of Education carry for us the heavy responsibility of maintaining an up-to-date and efficient system of public schools. They perform their task well. They serve us faithfully and unselfishly. Today, more than ever before, they are faced with serious and baffling problems. They, although already overburdened in their own businesses and professions, willingly take time to help solve the many school problems which come their way. To these men who are serving us so well, we express our sincere appreciation and pledge our sympathetic cooperation and help. They are, in truth, the real builders of our community, true friends of youth. FACULTY Allen P. Burkhardt, Superintendent Theodore P. Skillstad.

Type — 13 Glasses Realizing their responsibilities as the citizens and leaders of tomorrow, the classes of Norfolk Senior High are taking advantage of a varied educational program which is preparing them for future success by coordinating each student’s mind, hand and body. The success of American Democracy has long been attributed to the education of American youth. N. II. S. students will always stand as a splendid example of this brand of Americanism. Senior Class Officers Donna Rahder First Semester Secretary Dorothy Beckenbauer Second Semester Vice President Jean Chilquist Second Semester Treasurer Dick Miner President Susan Weber Second Semester Secretary (First semester officers not pres ent were Bill Ballew, vice president, and Bill Nicholas, treasurer, both now serving in the armed forces. The Senior Class of ’44 entered N. H. S. as bewildered as the last freshmen class. While we were wandering around the halls losing ourselves in the “vastness of N. H. S.” far away three men were planning something that would affect every one of us before we left high school. Germany, Italy, and Japan signed a friendship pact. By November of that year we knew the ropes (we thought). i ’£.'' ,tnessed two things that never happened before. First, President Roosevelt was elected to a third term. Second, a little freshman actually got up enough nerve to speak to Superintendent Burkhardt. To us the year was a success. That September we trudged back to “the old grind” and looked down our noses at those “odd freshmen. The intangible months fled by; so did the war. The battle of Russia was on! In November, while Sophomore boys were helping to finish up a successful grid season, the Honorable Saburo Kurusu was in Washington making “peace” plans. Then came Pearl Harbor. The war became a real thing. The boys in the class became restless when the upper classmen talked of the draft and the army and navy. It was true! We were Juniors. Ah, we’d show those snooty old Seniors. Well, we didn’t. We tned very hard but we didn’t do so well. We lost the Hare and Hound Race, the Scrap Drive (no matter how many times we weighed Willie in), and the Olympics. While the Juniors were losing K ?- 1 i.7$?i0rs the .V: S- army was beginning to move. We landed in New Guinea and North Africa. While our soldiers were undergoing commando training, Juniors were being trained, too—for the stage. Our class play “Tons of Money” (nothing to do with the tax bill) was a great success. When we were ready to put on the Junior-Senior Banquet, food became rationed so we decided not to monkey with the old ration stamps and put on a Prom instead. That year our resistance to the teachers ended; so ended all Axis resistance in North Africa. Our Senior year found us very different from most Senior Classes. We might be called “war casualties During the summer many in our class went to the army, among them Don Broadstone our star football player. During the year itself Vice President Bill Ballew, and Treasurer Bill Nichols went into the service. Regardless of what we were thinking about we had a glorious year. First we won the Hare and Hound Race. It was a cinch. While we were invading cornfields, stock yards, and what have you, the boys overseas were invading Italy itself. During football season the co-captains were Dick Miner, Marvin Papstein, and Stan Mather, all Seniors. Dick was later put on the All-State team. We closed our last year in high school by presenting as our class play, “Mrs. Miniver.” It was only right our last appearance as part of Norfolk High should have been about war, for after all from there on out that was our business. The boys knew their job (the government had that all planned for them). As soon as school was out many girls planned to join the Army Nurse Corps; many planned to work to help solve the manpower situation. The Senior Class of 1944 had gone to war! — 16 — Seniors AABERG, JOAN Library 2, 3. AABERG, LYDIA Glee Club, 3; Chorus, 4; Vespers, 4; Musical, 4.

The Hare and Hound Race unleashed all the pent up vitality of the gioup, and if it had not been for a certain false trail along a certain loading dock, the juniors would have pounced upon the seniors as they lav waiting in a corn field. High school dances sjxmsored by the Class of ’45 were genuine successes, both socially and financially. (The latter was the real reason we sponsored the things in the first place.) SI RPENSE” the class play, attracted a large and enthusiastic crowd and produced greater monetary returns than most class plays. (We had hoped for this from the first, of course.) The spring dinner and dance for the seniors will be the finest of all the things done well this year by the Class of 1945.

S. as freshmen in 1943, one hundred nineteen, the cream of the crop, have been tested, tried, and have proved worthy to be the sophomore class. We have not made spectacles of ourselves. Unfortunately for the school, we have sponsored no noisy jamborees. We are not ostentatious. We prefer to live up to the idea of plain living and high thinking. The class of 1946 is “bidding its time.” We are justly proud of Patty Berge’s being elected the basketball bond queen and the class’s participation in sports and activities.

In later life you’ll think back and remember not what a stiff course Algebra was, but rather, that Sadie Ilawkin’s Day Dance, those corny jokes at the “N” banquet, the scrap drives, singing for the Kiwanis, the class plays. Remember the fun you had during your four years in school and what it meant to you! Susan Weber, Beverly 8u$$kohl, Editors Milestone Staff The Milestone Staff worked hard and there are certain individuals who should be given special commendation for the many hours of work which they contributed. Beverly Busskohl, Editor, and Susan Weber, Associate Editor of the 1944 Milestone, should be credited with supplying our beautiful Annual this year. With the help of their sponsors, Mr. Gemer and Miss Hepfinger, they performed all their tasks in a commendable fashion, surviving a flood and many other obstacles.

We sometimes felt that we had more than our share of trouble this year, as word was sent to us, “due to priorities your order cannot be filled” or “because of a scarcity in the supply of dyes, we cannot furnish the color ordered.” Many telephone calls, telegrams, and trips to Lincoln were an added headache. Yet, there were many pleasant experiences. The comradeship which was made during the period working on the annual will never be forgotten. At this time, the Milestone staff wishes to thank the Crawford Studio. Mr. Crawford and Mrs. Robinson were always willing to take pictures and give the staff worthwhile suggestions. We also wish to thank the Norfolk business men who contributed so generously through advertising. The printers deserve their share of praise. During our darkest hours they were always willing to give us extra help. The Huse Publishing Company is responsible for the excellent job of printing. The Capital Engraving Company of Lincoln, Nebraska, had charge of the engraving. In spite of all our difficulties, we have a book to present to you, one of which we are proud. — 35 — First Semester—Back row, standing: Jean Raasch, Paul Filter, Mr. Gerner, Chauncey Crocker, Don Ballard, Lorena Stange, Jean Chilquist, Jeanne Moon, Earl Skalowsky, Keith Deuel; Sitting: Dorothy Drager, Noel Ball, Lilly Belle Morris, Jackie Hunt, Don Steffen Second Semester—Back row, standing: Verena Browner, Dan Finley, Arvid Raasch, Alberta Menuey, Katherine Puschendorf, Arlene Lehman, Glenn Gross, Laura Marlow, Lilly Belle Morris, Pauline Bowers, Howell Chandler, Byron Hooper, Don Steffen, Dennis Buettow; Front row: Delores Howser, Mr. Gerner, Earl Skalowsky, Jackie Hunt, Betty Prochaska Telital Staff In spite of the paper shortage, time, and other difficulties too numerous to mention, “The Telital,M made several appearances. Some of the “appearances” were not of the best. Anyway, the Journalism Department tried to follow the policies of good journalism. Jean Raasch and Earl Skalowsky were editors for the first and second semesters, respectively. Under their guidance news, social and athletic events, and humorous happenings of school were published for the student body. We did our best! — 36 — Back row, standing: Miss Harder, Mr. Skillstad, Miss Hyde, Mr. Kildee Front row: Miss Walker, Miss Gordon, Miss Zook, Mr. Rohn, Mr. Gerner Faculty Guidance Committee This committee is made up of a group of faculty members to guide offending students. Any student who had an accumulation of four ninth periods had to appear before this board. His story was heard. Ilis argument, if he had any, was given consideration. He was made to understand never to appear before the board again. In most cases, a very friendly attitude was established. Very few students came for a second “treatment.” This group met every Wednesday at four o’clock. They kept their goal in mind which was to assist students who have trouble abiding by the rules of the school and by adjusting conditions which led to the student’s difficulties. The members of the organization are Mr. Richard Kildee, Chairman; Mr. Lumir Gerner, Secretary; Miss Fay Gordon; Miss Jennie Walker; Miss Jean Zook; Mr. John Rohn; Miss Nellie Hyde, and Miss Ann Harder. — 37 — jfl Capella Choir Under the direction of Miss Alice Dawson, the choir has made a very fine showing of itself this year. It has been presented to the public many times during the course of the year, before an estimated audience of 6,000. One of the most impressive presentations was the Christmas vespers. Being set in an ancient Gothic cathedral, it made a very deep impression upon its spectators. This beautiful vesper and the caroling through the halls, will always be a part of the tradition of Norfolk High School. Besides singing at the Baccalaureate Service, the A Capella choir made appearances before the Senior and Junior High Schools and various civic organizations. The choir, being one of the largest organizations in school and consisting of 66 members, is one from which we can expect many more fine productions.

However, without this “song,” music may be harsh and discordant. In this class the young: lady musicians learn pitch and voice control, elementary conducting, and interpretation. As a preparation for the A Capella choir. Triple Trio Sweet strains of “Stardust” echoe through the halls. What is it? Why, that’s the Triple Trio, the first in Norfolk High. To make a sweeter blend, nine girls were chosen instead of the usual eight, and they were called the Triple Trio. The nine girls made their first appearance in front of the student body in their dresses of pink, white and aqua. (The reason there were no whistles is that the girls sang over the air at the same time and the boys were told, before hand, to be good.)

They also sang for various civic organizations. They enjoy the “barbershop” harmony as well as serious music. — 41 — Band Officers “The meeting will please come to order,” declared captain Donetta Johnson when the newly organized band officers got together for the first time. The officers have practically run Mr. Welch’s band, and he actually confides in them. They help in discipline of the group, and keep track of the point and letter system.

Welch, has won an important place in school and civic affairs. Their outstanding performance of the year was the concert. Composed of advanced players, it is organized for the purpose of studying and performing higher forms of music. hile musicianship is stressed, much emphasis is placed on the individual’s value to his organization as a good citizen. While it is realized that music is their goal, they can not achieve this goal without first having orderly self-control by each member of the band. Elected band officers set an example in appearance and conduct, and aid our director in attaining better organization. 1 his year our band appeared before several assemblies, for parades, between halves at football games and for basketball games. And last but not least after almost a year of hard, diligent work, our band presented a very fine concert, from which we visualize a very fine band for the coming school year.

Dorothy Vile 5, Laura Marlow, and Gerald Deibler have done a very fine job twirling the baton and strutting around. I’m sure every student of N. H. S. is truly proud of you for your remarkable work during the 1943-44 school term. Left to right: Dorothy Viles, Gerald Deibler, Laura Marlow, Dick Asmussen FLUTE TRIO The flute trio justifies its long hours of practice by performing exceptionally well. We have proof for the above statement. hy were they so popular? Answer, we enjoyed their music. TRUMPET TRIO Among this group’s performances were convocations and the Junior-Senior Banquet. This little dignified group was always willing to take part in high school functions. Students and faculty members looked forward to the cornet trio’s performances. Keep up the good work, boys!

They entertained at the State Teachers’ Convention and the Parent Teachers’ Association. One of their outstanding performances was the Spring Concert. The orchestra is made up of peppy, young musicians. They rehearse three times a week. We know that the effort put forth by this group has not been time wasted. The public has often expressed words of praise for their work. CLARINET QUARTET Inspiring and sweet music comes from these fine young musicians. They, too, have had many requests from Norfolk’s music lovers. WOODWIND QUINTET One of the small musical groups organized by Mr. Welch, that made a hit this year, was the Woodwind Quintet. They played their sweet music at the Monroe P. T. A., they attended the Masonic Guest Night, and then came the real break; they showed the Propaedeutics class of 1944 how to play good music. — 45 — Left to right—Harold Dahlheim, Lois Lenser, Donna Hass, Carol Haines, Herman Schilling Cheerleaders Strength does not always come from tall, robust people. Little “fellers” can surprise people and show how much strength they have. Even though our cheerleaders were short in stature, they had what it took for good cheer leading—they had plenty of “pep” and “zip.” This well-organized group has done a grand job of arousing enthusiasm in the student body. In their maroon and white uniforms they made an impressive showing of themselves during the basketball and football seasons. N'Ergettes The capitalists of “nrgy,” the represenatives of their respective classes, the promoters of school enthusiasm, and the workers of the hour — those phrases spell N’ERGETTES. Activities of the year included ushering at athletic events and the N. S. T. A. Convention, sponsoring the weekly sales of War Savings Stamps and Bonds, and promoting school functions in general.

About 1927 the club changed its name to MINUTE MEN and changed its membership to twenty-four. In stimulating school spirit, with “service” as their purpose the MINUTE MEN spend their time, when not studying to maintain a required scholastic average, putting our “N” flags in front of downtown business houses; taking tickets at football and basketball games; parking cars and guarding fences at the football field; sponsoring or co-sponsor-ing school dances and pep rallies; assisting at teachers convention; assisting at basketball tournament; etc. To observe one of their quiet orderly meetings going along in a usual abnormal manner one would not recognize the enthusiastic group of fellows who help promote school spirit and make our school the peppy place it is.

The Norfolk chapter is composed of 30 members. The primary aim of the organization is to sponsor a program of work that will help to train prospective farmers for proficiency in farming. The various activities that are promoted develop rural leadership and give a boy confidence in himself and his work. Members take part in cooperative enterprises and promote thrift. They engage in competitive events where farm skill and abilities are demonstrated. They study the field of agriculture and become better able to wisely choose that farming occupation for which they are best suited. The supervised farming program affords each member an opportunity for degree advancement in the organization. Through goals achieved from earning and investments, Future Farmers receive local, state and national recognition and awards. To become established in farming is the goal of enterprising Future Farmers.

Under the direction of Miss McGilvrey and P. A. Tucker the work of this crew includes stirring sticky paint with bare hands, climbing ladders, adjusting spotlights, carrying floodlights, supplying sound effects, flashing lightning, and continually figuring out the answers to “How can we do it?” instead of saying “It can’t be done.” Sets built this season include Sherlock Holmes’ apartment in London for “Suspense,” and an old European cathedral for the Christmas Vespers, a Southern Colonial mansion for the Spring Musical, and Mi’s. Miniver’s cottage for the Senior Play. They also did lighting and helped in production for the grade school operetta, “The Magic Piper,” Spring band concert and Junior High Music and Dramatic Night. Purchase of white coveralls gave the crew uniforms and a definite place in the activities of the school. — 51 — (pjTHLETICS When the athletic department of a high school is mentioned, people usually think only of the football and basketball teams and how good or poor their records may have been during the season. Having a winning team is just one of the many aims of athletic directors. Today, more than ever, we realize the importance of good health. It is in the gymnasium and on the athletic fields that much can be done to build stronger muscles. Every student has an opportunity to take part in physical training. He doesn’t have to be an outstanding football player to have this opportunity. Our school offers classes in physical education for every boy and girl. For girls who are interested in taking more physical exercises, the Girls’ Athletic Association offers many opportunities. Norfolk High School is in step with the nationwide plan of improving its citizens’ health. Leonard Campbell Dave Hallstrom Les France Assistant Football and Freshman Coach Basketball and Basketball Coach Football Coach Coaches Mead football, basketball and track coach, Mr. France did a fine job in all three sports. Besides this, he is a teacher of social sciences. He graduated from Syracuse High School, Doane College and attended various coaching schools. He previously coached at St. Edward and Albion. Leonard Campbell hails from Watsenburg, Colorado, where he attended Huerfano County High School. He has an A.B. from Colorado State College of Education and also has attended the University of Colorado. He was a 4-year letterman in baseball at Colorado State, (hence the jacket you always see him wearing), and also lettered in football, basketball, and tennis. He is assistant coach in football, basketball and track. Daniel Hallstrom, the reserve football tutor, comes from Huron, S. D. He has an A.B. from Midland, where he lettered in all three major sports. Student Managers Earl Skalowsky and Dick Covert have surely done their part to help our victorious teams. Serving in the capacity of Student Managers, they have kept things running smoothly for the boys. As their duties keep them away from the limelight, they often are not known by the public. Even the coach has no realization of their benefits until that fatal moment when he doesn’t have one at his side. We feel that this is a good place to give them a cheer for their work. — 54 — Dick Covert Earl Skalowsky 1943-1944 FOOTBALL RECORD Sept. 17—Norfolk 13; Yankton 0 Sept. 24—Norfolk 6; Grand Island 19 Oct. 1—Norfolk 21; Wayne 0 Oct. 8—Norfolk 13; Creighton Prep 33 Oct. 15—Norfolk 35; Columbus 0 Oct. 22—Norfolk 12; Hastings 0 Oct. 29—Norfolk 41; Albion 0 Nov. 5—Norfolk 31; South Sioux City 0 Nov. 11—Norfolk 34; Fremont 0 — 55 — Eldon Bernhardt N Dennie Buettow N Dan Deibler Marvin Eakes N Bob Farner N Bill Fender Paul Filter N Jim Harkrader NNN Dick Haase N Darel Heppner John Johnson N Wayne Long N Stan Mather NNN Gene Mauk N Dick Miner NNN Marvin Papstein NN Ed Swogger Ray Woodbury N Don Zicht N — 56 — Varsity Football The Norfolk Panthers lived up to their fine reputation on the gridiron by winning 7 games out of the season’s 9. In the first game of the season at Yankton, Jim Harkrader, the Panthers’ fullback, made a fine record for himself by doing most of the ball carrying. Don Zicht climaxed the game on an interception, carrying the ball to the ten-yard line, but the Panthers couldn’t score. A sturdy line, including the fine play of Zicht, Farner, Filter, and Miner, gave us high hopes for the rest of the season. The game with Grand Island was a see-saw affair until Stan Mather, now a Navy man, sprinted 40 yards on a lateral interception to give Norfolk a 6-0 lead at the half. Dick Miner, our All-State center, was badly missed in this game. The third game of the season with Wayne, saw the Panthers getting into their stride. Papstein’s fine running, with a total of 265 yards, brought deafening shouts from the grandstand. Zicht and Nicholas, man of the Marines now, did some fine passing. The Panthers held their own during the first half of the Creighton Prep game, the number one team, but the Preppers, capitalizing on blocked punts, pushed over for 3 touchdowns in the last half to win. The 35-0 victory over Columbus was aided by Papstein’s fine passing. His good work won him a place on the All-State Honor Roll. Woodbury and Faubel were outstanding in the line. At Hastings, Johnson and Mauk were outstanding. They were put on Hastings' All-Opponents team. At the big home game during Teachers’ Convention, the Panthers defeated Albion 41-0. lluettow, quarterback, scored 3 touchdowns in a row. Woodbury and Deibler did a good job on the line. In the South Sioux game Harkrader’s 60-yard run and Mather’s 72-yard jaunt helped to give us a score of 31-0, to make it five straight victories. The two Panther tackles, Farner and Johnson, were really working. Miner and Faubel showed fine teamwork. We are losing ten seniors this year. They have done fine work and will surely be missed. Six lettermen remain for next year, two Juniors and four Sophomores. — 57 — Back row—Doug Barry, Lynn Hutton, Byron Hooper, Bert Hopkins, Gib Eggen, Bob Brown, Kenneth Frey Middle row—Spencer Butterfield, Doyle Busskohl, Don Reed, Don Steffen, Bob Janney, Keith Pilger, Charles Braasch Front row—Don Papstein, Rod Landers, Ward Gunsolley, Bob Long, Don Christiansen, Dick Carson, Andy Rimovsky Reserve Football Because of gas and tire rationing, the Norfolk Reserves played only three games, but came out on top in all of these. Under the able guidance of Coach “Shorty” Halstrom, the Cubs were transformed from a bunch of green, awkward kids into a smooth, powerful, undefeated football machine. At the start of the season there were only a handful of boys with any experience at all, but after a season of long, hard practices every night, each of the boys learned plenty about the game, and all will be hustling for varsity berths next year. Some of the boys proved to be big and fast and had plenty of football savvy. Some of the leading contenders for next year’s varsity are Don Papstein, Bert Hopkins, Gib Eggen, Keith Pilger, and Fred Fuhrmann. The “Baby Panthers” added a big feather to their bonnet when they took a third quarter forfeit from the powerful Madison regulars, who ranked among the best in the state in the Class “B” division. The “Scrubs” also mauled Battle Creek’s first team 19-6 and the Stanton Reserves 19-0. The entire school could do well to tip their derbys to Coach Ilallstrom and his boys, who, despite the fact that they didn’t have many games to keep their enthusiasm high, displayed the old fight and fire the whole season and proved themselves well worthy of bearing the Maroon and White banner. Taking a third quarter forfeited game from Madison regulars, 8-0; a 19-0 game from Stanton Reserves, and a 19-6 game from Battle Creek regulars, the Norfolk Reserves finished the season undefeated. The lettermen, who will be back next year are: Don Papstein, Doyle Busskohl, Fred Fuhrmann, Bert Hopkins, Kenneth Frey, Lee Iloxie, Bob Janney, Gilbert Gimbel, Keith Pilger, Ward Gunsolley, Don Steffen, Charles Braasch and Bob Long. — 58 — 1943-44 Basket Ball Norfolk-South Sioux Dec. 10—Norfolk 29; Albion 15 Dec. 17—Norfolk 24 ; Pierce 18 Dec. 18—Norfolk 17; Creighton Prep 27 Dec. 21—Norfolk 30; Alumni 34 Jan. 7—Norfolk 37; Fremont 32 Jan. 15—Norfolk 27; Lincoln Northeast 42 Jan. 21—Norfolk 33; Wayne 21 Jan. 28—Norfolk 33; Grand Island 34 Jan. 29—Norfolk 24; Hastings 29 Febr. 5—Norfolk 27; Sioux City East 38 Febr. 11—Norfolk 48; York 68 Febr. 18—Norfolk 37; South Sioux City 16 Febr. 25—Norfolk 26; Columbus 24 March 2 (Tournament)—Norfolk 28; Hastings 37 Bob Farner, Doug Barry, Mary Christians, Don Zicht, Mack Robinson, Bob Janney, Ed Swogger, James Harkrader, Gene Henzlik, Doyle Busskohl, Keith Pilger, Don Hamilton — 59 — Douglas Barry Doyle Busskohl N Marvin Christians NN Bob Farner N Don Hamilton N Jim Harkrader N Gene Henzlik N Bob Janney Stan Mather N Keith Pilger N Mack Robinson NN Ed Swogger Don Zicht N Varsity Basket Ball The Varsity Basket Ball Team came through the season with 6 wins and 7 losses, having one of the toughest schedules that Norfolk has had in years. The opening game with Albion ended with a score of 25) to 15 in our favor. Robinson was the star of the game, making 11 points. In the Pierce game, Busskohl and Harkrader were outstanding for their fine floor play. Victory was ours again. We met our first defeat of the season with Creighton Prep taking 27 points to our 17. Henzlik led our team with 5 points. Faubel was our hero in the Fremont game, as he made two baskets in the last few seconds. The Panthers came back into the “Top Ten” with a 35-32 victory. Henzlik and Hamilton gave some fine floor play in the Lincoln Northeast game. Robinson led the Panthers with 5) points. Mack’s 17 points and Mather’s fine playing gave Norfolk a 33 to 21 victory over Wayne. We lost to Grand Island 34 to 33 in an overtime. Nine Panthers scored in the Hastings game. Despite Joe Farner’s fine game and Mack Robinson’s high score, the Panthers lost 38 to 27 to the Raiders of Sioux City East. Marv Christians was outstanding in the South Sioux game, as he made 13 points.

The topmost features of this year were the crowning of the Bond Queen, Junior-Senior Prom Queen, and the visit of Wendell L. Willkie to Norfolk. These events not only hi-lighted our school year, but showed that the students were helping to fill their places in the war effort and showing their interest as citizens in the United States. 1944 Milestone Award Presented to Dorothy Beckenhauer — 66 — 1944 Milestone Award Presented to Richard Miner — 67 — Back row: Janet Shiveley, Patty Berge, Peggy Hansen, Virginia Barry, Betty Bonnet, Alice Lanham, Beverly Busskohl, Dorothy Beckenhauer, Shirley Reckewey First row: Jeanne Moon, Beverly Anstine, Marilyn Weber, Jane Beckenhauer, Lois Leach, Donna Rahder, Janet Hass BOND QUEEN Our last scheduled basket ball game with South Sioux City was the scene of the presentation of the Basket Ball Bond Queen. The girl who received this honor was Patty Berge, who was presented by Don Zicht, game captain. Each class elected four girls to represent them. Votes were given for each stamp and bond bought that week. This event was sponsored by the N’Ergettes, who sold the stamps and bonds. Patty, who represented the sophomore class, made a very charming queen. “Suspense,” by Glen Hughes, was chosen as the Junior class play given December 3, 1943. Miss Marjorie McGilvrey directed this thrilling play. This mystery play was entwined around a jeweled watch which was claimed by almost the entire cast. Yes, its rightful owner was discovered with the help of Sherlock Holmes. Success was due not only to the actors but also to the makeup crew, scenery crews, student directors, the faculty and the production staff. A capacity audience was highly enthusiastic in praise of the performance of members of the Norfolk High School senior class in the presentation of the play, “Mrs. Miniver,” in the school auditorium. Much credit for this successful performance was being given Miss Marjorie McGilvrey under whose direction the drama was presented. The story depicted pre-war home life and war destruction in the lives of the Minivers. This English family, just plain folk, reflected a natural wholesome family home, the type the aggressors would destroy. — 71 — The Musicale The Musicale or Spring Conceit, under the direction of Miss Alice Dawson, was one of the finest programs of the year produced by the Norfolk High School Choir and Glee Clubs. The concert was divided into three parts. The first part was made up of concert numbers. There were numbers sung by the choir, boys’ ensemble, and combined girls’ glee clubs. The second part was an outdoor southern plantation scene. The background was the veranda of a southern mansion. The scene opened with a very graceful southern waltz. Costumes were those of period 1850-1860. Those taking part were a selected group from the choir. There were also solos, duets, ensemble, and triple trio numbers. “The Battle Hymn of the Republic,” sung by the entire choir, constituted the third and last part of the concert. On the finale, the auditorium was darkened and a moving picture of a waving flag was projected on the group. The singers were assisted by an instrumental ensemble in charge of Mr. Merton Welch.
