Many long years ago, way back in ’4:5, a group of innocent-eyed, blissfully ignorant freshmen entered tin jx rtals of Norfolk Senior High. Little did they know of what strange and fascinating things lay Indore them in the next four years. Take for instance the cold day when Mr. Skillstad interrupted their planning for an elite frosli sneak day to inform them, gently but firmly. that it was definitely against the rules of the school to skip anytime they pleased. Or the joy they were to get in pulling a bovine animal out of a slimy mudhole on the fresh-n-sophom re picnic. They didn’t realize, then, the thrill of getting splattered in the race with a runny raw egg on Field Day, or the horror of Latin declen- sions and chemistry formulas. ()h no. they never dreamed any of these things could happen to them. I f they had. we’re sure all we would have seen of these small green people would l e their backs as they hastily escaped from the nearest exit. All these things did happen, though, and more too!

And then it turned out better than the seniors wanted to admit, thanks to the wonderful cooking and the high class entertainment (this includes Sid Johnson’s “hies” in the junior version of Spike Jones’ “Cocktails for Two.”) Of course, they will never forget the Hare and Hound races. We pass lightly over the one in their junior year, in which they were miserably beaten, and dwell on the one in their senior year. They felt snug as they sipped their steaming cocoa and gulped down sandwiches, watching the weary juniors come straggling in the gym one by one. Even though their bones did ache from lying on the wet. cold ground and their noses were sore from the constant application of pressure on them to war off noisy sneezes, they were glad to sacrifice this little to add great glory to the class of 48. They will remember little things too. Mr. Grosscup’s stream of ninth ] eriods; Miss Mac’s giggle: trudging up and down down and up the halls; cramming for tests at the last minute; the team captain’s stuttered “We’ll beat ’em” and the yells at pep rallies; the hardness of the seats and the numbness of their feet at the end of a football game; the feeling of elation as one of our boys swished a basketball through the basket; the sound of the choir practicing in the auditorium; Mr. Welch’s corny jokes in band; the quietness of 209 the week of semester tests; and many other little things that will make them remember high school days as the best days of their lives. They’ve worked petty hard and had lots of fun in the last 48 months. During these months they have been a vital part of Norfolk Senior High, 22 WHAT'LL WE SING?—Marion McClelland, Phyllis Manske, Bob Clark, Shirlee Miller, Bob Light, Dean McGinnis.

Nothing can ever replace, for them, the tilings they’ve learned here, the friends made and the fun had.

It's Phyl and Sid, the outstanding girl and the outstanding boy of the 1948 graduating class. With so many fields of interest and participation in activities, their choice as Milestone Girl and Milestone Boy is obviously deserved. Each year, with the publication of the annual, the Milestone awards are given to two seniors chosen by a secret committee of faculty members and juniors. Character, scholarship, and participation in activities is the basis for the selection. fifty years of traditional junior events— the junior-senior proms, field days, hare and hound races. these juniors each year with an eye toward their last year of high school, building hopes and determinations to equal and better their predecessors’ records. Twenty years ago, Mr. R. John Krueger was a member of the junior class in Norfolk Senior High. Today, this alumnus owns and operates two business firms in Noriolk, the Krueger Electric Company, and the Krueger Appliance Company. “Caw you find any scraps of paper? “Just wa t till Field Day! Wasn't the prom simply wonderful? Those flora dora guys were a scream. Oh. aren’t our rings beautiful? I just love mine! These remarks cover lots of the junior affairs of last year. For these first-year upperclassmen, it was an exciting year. The class began their year by holding their annual election of class officers. Phil Jackman was elected president ; Emily Weidner. vice president; Xancy Long, secretary, and Penny Sloan, treasurer. The X’Ergettes were Amv Christiansen, Shirley Christof-ferson, Maxine Heiderman, Nancy Long. Ann Ransom. Dorothy Roker, and Emily Weidner. The Minute Men were Bill Akstadt, Hob Beckenhauer, Don Reckenhauer, Glen Chapman. Le-Roy Covert, Phil Jackman, Bill Mel-lick, and Phil Raasch. Five of the peppy cheerleaders seen at the games and Panther activities are from the junior class: Jackie Hoff. D'Ette Remender, Jack Best. Fred McFarland, and Dick Hurlburt. Shortly after elections, the annual junior-senior Hare and Hound race was held. True to tradition, the juniors were unable to track down the leads of the so-called scraps of paper ( seen only through a microscope), left by the senior trail-layers.

Smiling victoriously, when the time limit was over, the seniors apj)eared from, of course, the other road, which led straight to the Mormon cemetery. With stiff backs, and the leather half gone from their shoes, the group trudged back to the high school gym where sandwiches and steaming hot chocolate were waiting. About the time all arguments of this event died down, tryouts for the junior class play, “Sunrise by Request. were held and the cherished roles went to Rill McNeely, Amy Christensen. Emily Weidner, Don Reckenhauer. Phil Raasch. Elizabeth Splinter. Arlyce Kellner, and Joan Ridsdale. Student directors were Pat Harmer and Jack Rest. Properties were gathered by committees headed by Joan Muller and Reverly Toelle. Junior girls in formals ushered. Revised Milestone plans for this book had decided that since they, as well as the seniors, were considered upperclassmen, they too should have individual pictures in the annual. This new idea was enthusiastically received by members of the class and so they nobly trudged to the studio to get shot. After this, second semester had rolled around and elections were once again in progress. Results this time revealed Phil Jackman as president; Emily W eidner. vice president: Elinor Hyde, secretary, and Penny Sloan, treasurer.

Finally came the long-awaited day when all grudges held between the junior and senior classes were settled. (Field Day to you underclassmen). Worms were tossed down lovely young necks, eggs were flying in all directions, and tomatoes were definitely in season. Suddenly breaking through all other confusion come the agonizing screams of a woman in distress. Some unsuspecting mortal was just given a quick plunge in the water. All about were students and sponsors dishing it out and taking it all at the same time. Ah! At last, the night all the girls dreamed about and the boys dreaded at the thought of the corsages. The Junior-Senior Prom and Banquet. The BIG event of the year. Each girl dreaming of an “out of this world dress and the fellows donning a very bored attitude until the night of the dance. The committees, appointed by the junior class officers and sponsors, chose Ann Ransom as general chairman. Joan Krueger as entertainment chairman. Russell Caauwe for decorations, and Von Dell Glaser for food. The committees were: entertainment, Glen Blakeman, Skip Dalton, Phil Raasch. Nancy Long. D'Ette Remender, and Jim Edwards: decorations.

Candles in bottles were used as the centerpieces for the small tables. Phil Jackman presided over the program as master of ceremonies. A junior welcome, entitled School Days was given by Joan Krueger, with the senior response, “Dreaming,” by Sid Johnson. Talks were also given by Dr. Allen P.

Starting off their second year, the class chose Bill McGarry to take the title of president for first semester. Other officers were Gark Hoffman. vice president; Marilyn Clark, secretary, and Marla Harms, treasurer.

School had just settled down to a nice peace-ful year of read in’, ‘ritin , and Tithmetic, when the sophies decided to sponsor one of the school dances. Of course it turned out to be the best fling of the semester—well, with mayl e a few exceptions here and there, but nevertheless it turned out to be a great success of so quoth the sophs. Never lacking activities, the sophs first of all had several players on the starting lineup during the grid season, with many others on the second and reserve teams. A few got major football N’s and others the reserve N s. These fellows really got initiated into the out-of-town trips in grand style, and were they fun! Don 36 Tarr was one of the student managers first semester, and somehow or another always got his share of the locker blues, during training season. The second semester Dan Gimbel also joined the ranks of student managers and assumed his share of the locker work. W hen cage season rolled around, later in the fall, soph fans found Bill McGarry on the first five, starting in every game, and also “Sub” Swoggcr, Dick Barger, Charles Bugenhagen. Ronnie Stewart, Jerry Harkrader, and Fred iakle on second string. Couldn't get along without ’em. The spring track season also found many of the sophs reporting for workouts. Several earned a major track N too. During last year a freshman triple trio was organized in that class, and it was continued this year, being called the sophomore triple trio. The same members were in the group, except that Jackie Stansberry replaced Marla Harms when she moved from Norfolk. Sophomores were very active in stage crew work, makeup crew, the a caj ella choir, the Hi-Note club, G.A.A., Allied Youth, band and orchestra. In the orchestra violin quartet three of the group, Bat Suiter, Joan Krueger, and Marlene Schmidt, were in the class of '50.

This class also held their own in the journalism department. Editorial positions on both Milestone and Panthers were held by Sophomore Joan Krueger, and many many other sophomores were star reporters and ad solicitors. Many sophomore names appeared at the end of each six weeks on the honor roll, proving that class had proved themselves okay scholastically as well as in activities.

As the days of January were marked off on the calendar one bv one, the second semester rolled around, and Dan Gimbel was elected to be the new president, with Hill McGarry new vice president. Secretary was Marilyn Clark and treasurer was Janet Burkhardt. N’Ergettes were the same except that Jeanne Skillstad replaced Marla Harms. Those wearing Minute Men jackets for the second semester were Bob Barnes, Ronald Sanders, Charles Gomon, Bill Greckel. Dan Gimbel. Harold Dieter, with Dick Barger and Fred Gakle associate members.

(It was never decided— just |)ostponed indefinitely). As for foreign languages, it just seems that no soph intends to become involved in international affairs, or look up old Julius Caesar.

Those teachers just could not understand that chewing gum helped one to concentrate, or that candy soothed one’s nerves in study halls, or that if you didn’t send that note you’d simply die, or that you must tell Jane about your date last night right now. At the end of the year, about the time when all the utterly exclusive upperclassmen activities were in full swing, sophies eye them enviously with the thought of next year when they’d get to lend a helping hand in them. They are already in training for the hare and hound race. TIME OUT FOR RELAXATION—Vincent Finkhouse, Marvin Long, SIX SWEET SMILES—Ruth Christiansen, Nyla Jane Kolterman, Gerald Friedrich.

Awards Day a few days before the end of the school year saw many a member of the sophomore class walk on the stage to receive a letter of one sort or another. And were they proud! It took quite a while to bring them down from the clouds long enough to finish school. Always ready to lend a helping hand in all work were class sponsors Miss Lillian Durkop, head sponsor; Mr. Ellwin G. Fletcher, Miss Nonda Herman. Mr. James Manning, Miss Wanda Nicholas, and Mr. Donald Scott. When the sophs get their last grade slips, and walk out of the door the last day of the year they will no longer be sophomores, but mighty juniors, upperclassmen. They were proud but it was with feelings of not all gladness—gladness, but also regret, for these kids certainly disproved the saying that the sophomore year of high school is the dullest and hardest of all. Yes, WISE FOOLS” is a pretty good description of this class of all classes — the class of ’50. 40 FRESHIE OFFICERS PLAN—Jack Miller, Rex Menuey, Lorraine Dieter, Jackie Mills, Jean Steffen, Kay Mathews. It reached its crisis when they scattered in all directions when the forty-minute class I ell rang, thinking it was a fire drill. Luckily no one was hurt. To make this class history more clear we shall endeavor to draw a word-picture for you of a typical day of the freshman in early September. Each day’s happenings were carbon copies of the preceding day and for a long, long time it seemed like a hopeless case. With no rain all summer, students were amazed at the vivid green look of the 1947-48 freshman crop. It was again surprising to learn of their ability in adapting themselves to an ever-changing climate. A few frosty glances from the upperclassmen brought a sudden maturity over the “yield.” Prior to this ripening, the class had acute growing pains. After a few hazy weeks of relative amnesia, they rallied to the idea of learning the four directions — north, south, east, and west — plus the difference in telling between up and down. They often found themselves in the gymnasium when the teachers were marking them absent (minded?) from 301 upstairs. WERE COWIN' OUT—Phyllis Prince, Nancy Hoile, Virginia Ridsdale, Luella Nichols.

When the school called its sessions in September 1947 several strange objects appeared to be haunting the school vicinity. On close observation by the custodian in the wee sma' hours of the morning, he discovered them to be freshmen beaming with eagerness to enter the portals of learning. They had parked their kiddie-cars exactly one-half of one-fourth mile to the southwest, six miles several yards and one-half inch to the north, with Front row: Marlin Bree. Delbert Amen. John Alden.

The custodian, feeling a deep compassion for these sleepless freshmen, hurriedly unlocked the doors, ran to the boiler room and poked the fire left banked since last May on that Friday afternoon when school was out. From the draft the freshmen stirred, the low ashes suddenly flared up, but it was soon brought into control by a cup of water dashed on it. The school within held great awe and wonderment for them. They wandered around in a trance. The statue of old Abe Lincoln bears a niche where one of them ran at a perpendicular angle into it. (Fm happy to report the freshman wasn’t even grazed). The classroom was their real problem, literally speaking. School days (daze) to them meant relaxation and sleep. Some even brought small rugs for rest periods. For a solution of this major problem they were given a sulphur and molasses tonic. It took at least 35 minutes of every period for the teachers to command the attention of the freshman classes, and the remaining five minutes was an excellent opportunity to go into the class-work quite extensively. Freshman class sponsors were Mr. Gerald Danskin, Miss Fav Gordon, Miss Ruth Schini, Miss Dorothy Korn, and Mr. Merton Y. W elch. 43 many years of sports. Many hours of grime, toil and sweat with the hope of victory as a reward. championships and victories, that medals and trophies give only a front to the real work necessary to earn them. each year of different athletes, inspired by the past and eager to earn the phrase “well-done.” After graduating from Norfolk Senior High 32 Milestones ago, Mr. Andrew Mapes chose the law profession as a career.

Student Manager Don Tarr. 1! 4?—a year that will live in the minds of all Norfolk football patriots. A record was set: for the first time in recorded history Norfolk had a completely unsuccessful season. Unsuccessful as wins and losses are concerned, that is. hut a booming achievement as far as school spirit is involved. Seemingly the lowest ebb in the school's football history was reached this season. The record says 8 games and 8 losses, but to the none-the-less-spirited Panther squad the record tells but a small portion of the complete picture. COMING OVER! Virgil Baker practices going over the top on a couple of his teammates. Those eight games seem more than 48 minutes of gruelling work and sweat to the hard-fighting Maroon eleven. To them it means 48 minutes of unrelenting work, against some of the toughest competition the state could provide. Forty-eight minutes of toil and heartbreak every time the opposition broke through the light but nobly trying defense of the Norfolk squad. To them, the real meaning of sportsmanship, with all of its setbacks and a few of its glories, was revealed. Coach Les France summed up the season as a whole and expressed the sentiment of the school in these few but well-put sentences which he made at the close of the season: “This is the best team I’ve ever had. Not from the standpoint of wins certainly, but from the standpoint of spirit and fight. They never let up, even when the going was toughest. I’ve had some undefeated teams in my career as a coach, and not one of those teams who had an unmarred record had the willingness to play that these boys did. I do not feel too disappointed at the lack of wins because of this spirit. It must be remembered that the opponents of these bovs were of topflight caliber for the most part, anti were naturally endowed with the size and speed that were lacking in our squad. Regardless of the statistical record, we are proud of them for giving their best at all times.” 46 RONALD BURNS VIRGIL BAKER DICK BARGER VIRGIL BAKER —Sophomore guard . . . Virg was small but fast and rugged for his size, and should be a benefit to Norfolk in the next two years. DICK BARGER—Sophomore end . . .

He is a fine defensive player for the reserves with three years ahead of him. JACK DALTON TOM COSTELLO BOB CLARK 47 JACK GOODELL JERRY GOODEU JACK DALTON—Junior end . . .

Against Sioux City East he ran 87 yards for a touchdown. DICK S W O G G E R — Sophomore end . “Sub” played first string end. He's a good pass-catcher with two more years to play. EVERETT WESTERMAN — Junior . . . Red was a good defensive player and played center with Sid. He's a good boy who played his best ball at the end of the year. DERALD DREAGER JERRY HARKRADER SID JOHNSON LEON LAUVER GEORGE OTTMAN The Panthers’ first performance was against the state co-champions. Grand Island. Sporting one of tlie best teams in their history, G. I. was inaugurating their new playing field, and did it with a win over Norfolk to the tune of la-O. All-state hacks Reynolds and Noble started their seasons with fine running by taking advantage of the great line work turned in by the Islander forwards. It was an even more bitter defeat for the Xorfolkans, because three of the Norfolk mainstay backs were injured early in the fray, and thus the offense suffered. Jerry Goodell turned in an especially good line performance. The home season was opened by a hard-fought battle with Fremont. The deceptive Fre-monters, operating off the T. skirted the ends to gain the necessary yardage to set their scoring machine in operation, and then power plunges EVERETT WESTERMAN DICK SWOGGER carried them through to score. Sid Johnson. Norfolk center, turned in a fine defensive game for the Panthers. The final score was Fremont 27, Norfolk 0. Travelling to South Dakota, for the third game of the season, the Panthers ran into one of the best lines they met all year. The Yankton backs made up for their lack of speed by taking full advantage of their line and using their bulk to carry them extra yards. This powerful line-plunging was good for two touchdowns, and the final score, 14-0, was truly indicative of a hard-fought battle between two scrappy prep teams. Don Dreager used his fighting ability to best effect, and turned in a swell game at tackle. Reatrice was the next foe, and proved to be equal competition. The spirited Norfolkans saw-victory within their grasp, only to have it taken away again by a fumble late in the game. Beatrice won 13-7, but the game was almost entirely dominated. The Panthers led in every department except the passing division. It was two long passes that provided both Orangemen touchdowns, while Norfolk's marker was accounted for by hard running and fine blocking. The heartbreaker came late in the fourth period. Xorfolk had just terminated one of its long drives by scoring on an end around off the T. After kicking off to the Orangemen, Jerry Goodell hit the oncoming Beatrice back so hard that he fumbled. Norfolk recovered, and immediately the Panthers started to move, traveling 50 yards to the Beatrice 10. Jerry Harkrader picked up the pigskin from where it lay on the 15 and drove 12 yards to the Beatrice three. but the hall wras lost on downs. Immediately the Reatrice team moved 20 yards, at which point they fumbled. ()nce again the Panthers took over to move. Progressing to the 5-yard marker, the team seemed to have a good chance to win, but once again they fumbled, and Reatrice, recovering, stalled out the rest of the remaining seconds by dropping the ball after each snap-hack. It was a tough game to lose. A surprisingly powerful 1 lastings eleven ruined the annual Homecoming game by trouncing the Panthers 48-0. Perhaps the most deceptive club the home squad met, the Hastings eleven took full advantage of their speedy backs and deception to score repeatedly from all angles. Powerful All-State Tackle Ted Conner led an evenly potent forward wall that rendered the Norfolk defense helpless. Rob Clark played especially well at guard for the home team. A veritable |xnverhouse was encountered in the form of Creighton Prep. The Omaha lads were the most vicious blockers and tacklers to oppose the Panthers. However their lack of polish in the ball-handling department slowed up the attack considerably. Wally Reed seemed to be the only Norfolk back that could advance against the Prep lads. His center smashes carried the only Norfolk offensive threat. The final score was 32-0. The Norfolkans considered them the best opposition they met, from the standpoint of sportsmanship and clean play as well as ability. The Panthers went to Columbus with victory a hope in their hearts, hut came back defeated. The two teams fought on even terms the first half, but in the second half the end runs of Columbus scored 14 points while the Panthers were unable to score. The Discoverers had a hard-charging line and a deceptive back field. Heavy rains previous to the game made the field rainsoaked, and a drizzle fell during the entire game. One of the highlights of the first half came in the closing minutes when the Discoverers made a first down on the Panthers’ one-yard line. On the first down, Panthers threw the opponents for a two-yard loss. On the second down Columbus came hack to the one-yard line, and on the third pushed the pigskin to one foot of the goal. An outstanding defense gave the Panthers possession the fourth down, a matter of inches from a Columbus touchdown. The last game of the 1947 season was played on the Panthers’ home field against the East High Raiders. A chilled crowd was brought to its feet in the fourth quarter when Ronnie Stewart picked up the ball on his own 13-yard stripe, shook off several would-be tacklers. and ran 87 yards for a touchdown. Two of Norfolk’s three touchdowns of the season were made in this game. Despite another seven points made by Halfback Tom Costello, the Panthers were unable to stop the Raiders, who plunged through the Panther eleven to defeat them 35-13. Yes, truly the public record of this season is far from tops, but the sweat and toil behind it, and the extremely sportsmanlike spirit, make the 1947 season one of real achievement. 50 Always full of energy and pep the cheerleaders of Norfolk kept the spark of school spirit going throughout the year, even though the Panthers were not too successful in many encounters. The annual Snake Dance was led by Head C heerleader Dick Hurlburt, who took the crowd through town and ended it up at the south field and give a rousing pep rally around a huge iKiiifire. After the football season Herbie and Jack Best left the squad to try a hand at basketball. The head position was then taken by Fred McFarland, who was assisted by Jackie Hoff, D'F.tte Remender, Norma Redden, and Johnee Clarkson. To show appreciation for their new maroon and white jackets, which they worked hard for, the cheerleaders got busy and introduced several new yells that added a great deal to school spirit. The “Yea-Maroon was changed and done in several different ways, and bigger and better pep rallies were presented. At the last pep rally of the year, a Truth or Consequence skit was presented. Contestants were called up from the student body to take part. Then as a surprise event a huge sign with “Beat G. I.” written in blue letters was put up across the stage. After giving everyone time to read it. the cheerleaders then jumped through the paper atid gave a pep yell. The rest of the pep rally consisted of loud, peppy numbers from the pep band, under the direction of Mr. Merton V. Welch, and enthusiastic yells, closed with the school song. At the end of this year a new cheerleader was chosen to take the place of Johnee Clarkson, who is graduating. At the start of next year a sub squad will be chosen to take the place of those that are going to graduate. Also new YEA TEAM!—Cheerleaders Jackie Hoff, D’Ettc Remender, Fred McFarland, Norma Jean Redden, Johnee Clarkson. yells are being worked up to add vim and vigor to our games and pep rallies. Cheerleading is a hard job and can be done only with the aid of the entire student body. As Fred says, Cheerleading doesn't consist of just watching the cheerleaders on the stage or on the field, but is everybody, yelling together. Everyone should consider himself a part of the squad and put all his energy and pep into the pep rallies and games.” Cheerleading is what makes a football or basketball game exciting, without that the team doesn’t know whether you are behind them, or not. The cheerleaders have worked hard this year to please the students, and they do hope you appreciate their efforts. Stiff arms, aching muscles, and sore feet were the after effects of the Snake Dance in the fall. The winding procession started downtown and. weaving its way down the streets, finally ended at the South Field. By the light of a blazing bonfire the cheerlead ers led a peppy pep rally. COLOR GUARD—Joyce Johnson, Glen Koerting, Betty Schlender, Carol Kla witter, Everett Van Doren, and Phyllis Erb. HOMECOMING ROYALTY — Her Majesty Barbara Durland and attendants Phyllis Manske and LaJean Kellner. Aside from the few “trusties” to whom the secret was revealed, the name of this year’s Homecoming Queen was a mystery to all. Therefore, when Her Majesty Barbara Durland and her two attendants, Phyllis Manske and I ajean Kellner ascended their thrones, everyone was at least mildly surprised. The ceremony was original and snappy. As the Minute Men and N’Ergettes marched to the royal throne, a car bearing the three royal ladies came to the center of the field on the Norfolk side where two Minute Men escorted them to their thrones. Jack Miner, president of the senior class, placed a golden crown on the queen’s head while Nancy Long and Phil Jackman, junior class officers, crowned the attendants. Following this the queen was presented with a bouquet and a compact. After the crowning, the band performed at the half-time. But the Homecoming had a darker side. The opposing team. Hastings, played inspired ball and walked away with a convincing 48-0 victory. Even so, to all who attended and enjoyed the fine spirit displayed by players and rooters alike, it was an occasion long to be re-membered.

Any followers of the Panthers’ tracks during the 1947-1948 season would find that they led a fairly successful season. Playing a rough schedule under two different coaches, the Panthers won five of their games and lost ten. The Panther five played the first part of the season under the coaching of Les France, who resigned to become a salesman at the end of the first semester, and the last part of the season under the tutelage of Puford Grosscup. In the scoring department, the Panthers scored 494 points in 15 games, to 591 points for the opposition. Ihev average 35 points |x r game, while their opponents averaged 39 points. The Maroon and White journeyed to Pierce for their first encounter, and were stopped by a score of 32-47. The game, which was close all the way, saw three of the regulars go out on fouls. In this game, free throws determined many points of the score. n the following night the Norfolk squad made their home debut, and romjjed to an impressive win over the Yankton Ducks. The Panthers’ lead was never in danger, and the scoreboard showed a 29-19 win for the Maroon and White. Dlakeman led the home team with 10 jxjints. 53 DICK SID JOHNSON BILL McGARRY RONNIE STEWART DICK SWOGGER 54 BOB WATERBERY FREDGAKLE JERRY HARKRADER The next week the tall Scottsbluff five journeyed to Norfolk and handed the Panthers a 38-20 setback. The Panthers got off to a slow start, scoring only 2 points while the Bearcats racked up 12 in the first quarter. The Panthers rallied to cut the lead to 4 points, but were unable to gain a victory. Waterbury led the scoring with 8 points. A red-hot second half gave the fighting Panthers 20 |w ints and sent the Alliance five home with a 12-25 loss. The game, which hung in balance the first quarter, was completely Norfolk’s in the last three quarters. Blakeman and Costello led the Maroon and White with 11 and 10 points respectively. In their last game of 1017. the Panthers lost to the smoothworking Creighton Prep hv a score of 14-29. Looking good in the first half of the game, the Maroon and White lost the old fire and the Prepsters, led by Benson and Hayden, both towering 0 feet 5 inches, went on to victory. Blakeman and Johnson led the Panthers with 11 and 9 points respectively. FRED GAKLE—Sophomore forward . . . Always ood for a few points, Fred will be in there battling for a starting position next year. JERRY HARKRADER — Sophomore . . . Jerry is a hard worker, a good all-around athlete with two years coming up. DICK HURLBURT — Junior . . . Herbie dropped cheerleading to come out for basketball, and has worked as energetically at basketball as he formerly did as head cheerleader. SID JOHNSON—Other senior on the team . . . “Henry” played center and did a good job. His best game was played at Beatrice. BILL McGARRY—Sophomore member of the first five ... A good defensive player and a good passer, Bill will play a lot of basketball in the next two years. RONNIE STEWART — Sophomore guard . . . Ronnie is short but a fast and clever ball-handler. He should add to the team’s speed and deceptiveness in the next two years. DICK SWOGGER —Sophomore . . . “Sub” earned his first major basketball letter this year, and in his remaining two years will play a lot of basketball. One of the coolest players on the team, he never gets excited. BOB WATERBURY—Junior . . . Bob has another year of ball left. He is a good forward, an excellent shot from the side. In their last game of 1947, the Panthers lost to the smooth-working Creighton Prep by a score of half of the game, the iMaroon and White lost the old fire and the Prepsters, led by Henson and Hayden. both towering 6 feet 5 inches, went on to victory. Blakeman and Johnson led the Panthers with 11 and 9 jK)ints respectively. The Panthers played their last game for Coach France on January 111, and try as they did they still lost to Fremont. In this first East Big Ten game, each team made the same number of field goals, but it was again the free throws which determined the outcome of the game. Blakeman, Costello, and Johnson shared the scoring honors against the Tigers. The Panthers played their first game under the direction of Coach (jrosscup at Hastings the following week. They received a wallopping from the Tigers by a score of 49-19 in this second East Big Ten game. The Panthers were hampered in that Glen Blakeman contracted the flu and was unable to play. SPORTS QUEEN AND KING—Phyllis Manske and Wally Reed. Their attendants were Barbara Durland, Shirle Miller, Bob Light, and Dean Prince. THAT’S A FOUL, SUB!—Swogger has no words for this struggle with the Fremont Tigers. A five-game losing streak was broken on January 31 when the Maroon and White upset the favored Sioux City East quintet by a score of 48-37. Blakeman led the Panthers with 10, while Costello made 12. With the two teams battling away on even terms for the first quarter and most of the second. one of the Raiders sunk a fielder with two minutes left to play in the second quarter. Costello, suddenly coming to life, sunk three fielders, and Waterbury and McGarry each made free throws to shove the score ahead in favor of the Maroon and White 25-19. The last half, Norfolk retained the lead to end with an 11-point margin. On February 6 the Panthers played the highly touted Grand Island five in their third East B’g Ten game, and came out on the short end of a 55-23 score. This was Grand Island's thirty - fifth straight win. The Maroon and White played hard all through the game, but could not cope with the speed, height, and teamwork of the 55 HOLO YOUR BREATH, FELLOWS—Panthers keep their finders crossed for two more points against the Sioux City East Raiders. REACH HIGH, PUS —Jim •Pus Edwards reaches for the ball to stop the Columbus cagers on their home court Third City five. Xorfolk made only six field goals, five of them in the last half. Dale Toft, G. I., led the Islanders with 14 points, and Costello and Blakeman took the scoring honors for Xorfolk with 7 and • points respectively. York was given a 47-35 lesson the following week when the Panthers journeyed to York's home court. York held the lead only a few minutes in the first quarter, but with the score 0 to 5, Costello sunk a fielder, and after that it was strictly Xorfolk. Grosscup's charges hustled throughout the game, their fast-breaking tactics providing a puzzle for the home club. Costello stole the scoring honors by making 21 points. On February 14 the Panther five racked up another victory by defeating the Beatrice ()rangemen by a score of 52-34 on the loser’s court. The Orangemen scored first on a gratis throw, but the Panthers soon 56 recovered and from then on the game was Xorfolk’s all the way. Score at the half was 29-14. Blakeman and Waterbury led the scoring with 14 points each, and Sid Johnson made 12. The final Fast Big Ten game was played against the Columbus Discoverers the following week. The Discoverers were in the lead throughout the game, and the Panthers couldn’t seem to overcome that lead. Waterbury and Blakeman led the Maroon and White with ! and 8 points respectively. In their final game of the regular season the Xorfolk High squad traveled to the capital city where they played the Lincoln High squad. The Xorfolk cagers came out on the small end of a 46-30 score. The Lincoln quintet were ahead throughout the game, and their lead was never in danger. Blakeman led the Xorfolkans with 11 |K ints. TRACK SQUAD — Front row: D;ck Banger, Virgil Bake-. Mark McCoy.

Now the secretary-treasurer of the Norfolk Building and Loan Company, Mr. C. A. Durland, was a graduate of Norfolk High School 38 years ago. Holding the not unfamiliar gavel in his hand, Jack Miner presides over one of his club meetings. Scholastic studies constitute only a part of the students program in Norfolk Senior High, as is proved by the wide range of club activities developed throughout 50 years of Milestones. MINUTE MAN OFFICERS — Phil Raasch, Charles Gomon. Bill Mellick. Sponsor Theodore P. Skillstad, Boh Heiilerman, Jack Miner. FOUR GLOOMY GUSES AND BOB—Boh Johnson. Gene Koelm. Buh Amen. Jack Huddleston. Ken Shriver. Minute men were organized in 1921, with “service as their motto. This year, as in the past, the fellows in maroon and white jackets came up to this standard set hy their ancestors by guarding fences at football games and entrances at basketball games against the scotch-y inclined citizens, and generaly helping at track meets here. They were on hand one forenoon early in the year, with X'Ergettes. perfecting their salesmanship on the local businessmen by selling season football tickets. When Teachers Convention rolled around, the Minute Men were to be seen, giving out programs, watching entrances, and giving information to the visiting teachers. Everyone knows what Teachers Convention is: that's when all the instructors lay aside their hammers and whips and tell everyone else what intelligent students they have and how they all are willing to work hard. (Isn't that right, NHS teachers?) Perhaps the Minute Men didn't turn out quite as early as the X'Ergcttes at the convention, but nevertheless they did turn out dutifully in the evil hours of the morning for several days when any normal student would be cramming for the day’s exams, to rehearse with the N'Ergettes for the crowning of the Homecoming Queen on October 17. Xot neglecting their duties and privileges as a |X‘p organization, the Minute Men scattered themselves through the auditorium at pep rallies. That was to promote yells among the student hotly. Sponsor Skillstad told Phil Raasch, who kept trying to sit with the X'Ergettes. A pep rally is the time when everyone goes to the auditorium during home room in an “orderly manner, the cheerleaders run out on the stage, and Freddie veils “LET’S GO OX THE YEA-MAROON! HURRY AND TAKE IT, GEORGE—1 .eroy Covert, Bob Becken-hauer, Bill Altstadt, Don Beckenbauer, Phil Jackman. 60 I GOT HER!—Gerald Friedrich, Bill McGarry, Ronald Sanders, Jerry Vrzal. Then as the students open their mouths, a little man pops out and says, “We’ll return now to period i.” Not that pep rallies were short, but one freshman who stopped to get a drink on the way in met the student ixjdy coming out when he turned off the water. (Joking aside, the Minute Men do a lot of good work as a pep organization). In order to be a Minute Man, the constitution says, a student must be elected by friends and relatives or have the backing of the faculty; he must maintain a “C” average; he must be willing to cooperate (this clause was put in for the protection of sponsors), and he must take his reserved seat for special programs along with the rest of the students. A good many Minute Men. and some of the other students too, are opposed to the idea of reserved seats because they feel that Mr. Gerdes is taking an unfair advantage of pass-forgers he can’t catch in the act. A pass-forger ?— that’s a student who has made a name for himself! On the social side, the annual Minute Men picnic was held near the end of the second semester for the boys and their dates. The Minute Men sold pencils with the basketball schedule on them at the begining of the basketball season to students and teachers, to help raise money for badly-needed new jackets. The club never had quiet enough money, hut then—Bill Mel-lick and Phil Raasch were treasurers. Nuff said. The organization’s sponsors and sparkplugs were Principal Theodore P. Skill-stad for the first semester and Mr. John Griffin for the second. Officers for first semester were Jack Miner, president; Phil Raasch. vice president ; Charles Gomon, secretary; Bill Mel-lick, treasurer. Second semester officers were Wally Reed, president; Kill Mellick, vice president; Don Beckenhauer, secretary, and Phil Raasch, treasurer. MINUTE PAUSES FOR MINUTE MEN—Front row: Warren Wolfe.

Tliose girls dressed in maroon jackets and white skirts and known as X’Ergettes, whose job is to really put the “X into energy, are one of the most outstanding of this school's organizations. To be a member of this organization, one must be elected by the members of the respective classes, must maintain an average of “C” in scholarship, must be in attendance at weekly meetings, and must participate actively in club affairs. The freshies are allowed five members; the sophomores, five: the juniors, seven: and the seniors, seven : making a total of 24 very pretty girls in the organization. They are elected each semester, and they do try to represent the school in topnotch school spirit. Phyl Manske led these energetic girls the first semester as president, with Barb Durland assisting as vice president: Lajean Kellner, secretary ; Marilyn Clark, treasurer, and Emily Weidner, sergeant-at-arms. Barb Durland advanced in rank to become president second semester, and Lajean Kellner became vice president. Phyl Manske took over the duties of secretary; Marian Niewohner became treasurer and Jo Rakowski was elected sergeant-at-arms. The X'Ergettes sponsored two pep rallies and pretty good ones too. The first was during the football season. There was a court scene, with Bill Mellick representing Mrs. Ima Little (formerly Miss Norfolk) who had married a very cruel man from Scottsbluff (the team's opponent that night). Assistant Principal Gerdes (Gertie Gurgle) and Coach Grosscup (Beulah M. Grosscup) also took part as witnesses—and were they hilarious! The second rally was during the basketball season. This time it was a Truth or Consequence program with a walking man stunt. Wally Reed was master of ceremonies—doesn't he make a charming N'Er-gette?—representing Ralph Edwards. Mr. Ellwin G. Fletcher was the walking man, whom Carol Weidner identified very easily after Glen Blakeman and Jim Edwards had missed their tries. These three were then the unlucky victims, who after much consideration on the part of the jury had to pay the consequences. «2 it mtim PRETTY MAIDS ALL IN A ROW—Pat Harmer, Penny Sloan, Lorraine Dieter, Jeanne Skillstad, Kay Mathews, Corinne Stuckwisch, Lorrayne Bricker, Joan Rakowski. This program was even complete with the commercial for “Happy Suddsie Singers,” a singing trio commercial of Jackie Stansberry, Grace Burkhardt, and Jeanne Skill-stad, who during the second commercial got the giggles and had to be dragged off the stage. These rallies were only two of the many jobs the N'Ergettes did to create pep. They ushered weekly at basketball games, nude sure the fans at the football games were not hungry, sold Beat tags and those very-pretty pencils with the basketball schedules printed on them. One of the other jobs the N'Ergettes did was to usher at the Teachers Convention here in the fall. It was especially hard on them, since every other student got to stay home and sleep those mornings, but they came through splendidly, although they did claim they were weary after those two strenuous days. N'Ergettes sponsored both the Homecoming coronation and the Sjxirts King and Queen ceremony. With Ann Ransom head of the committee both times and with her committee working hard, the affairs went off without a hitch—except of course for someone forgetting their cues now and then. Although a lot of the girls had a difficult time getting up nerve to ask their heart-throbs of the moment, they did decide to have a picnic at Ta-ha-zouka Park in April. Eats first and dancing afterwards— it was a decidedly successful evening. During the track season, you could find when and where the latest meet was being held from one of the N'Ergettes. (Once in a while they knew too). They faithfully wore their uniforms and when the Norfolk invitational meet was held here April 23, they really showed the visiting towns that they were proud of Norfolk Senior High. On Careers Day they ushered and escorted the sjx'akers to their respective student hosts. This was not a very hard job for them to handle, especially since most of the student hosts met their own guest speakers. These girls really did their best to carry out their motto. “We really put the ‘N’ into energy.” They received splendid advice and help from their sponsor. Miss Lillian Soderberg, throughout the year. Everything that went on you could count on the N'Ergettes to be among the workers. These girls really worked hard all year, and they accomplished wonders—but even more than that, they had lots of fun doing it. SOUNDS OK TO US — Marian Niewohner, Joan Niewohner, Arnetta Freudenberg, Dolor? Mill?. SMILING SOPHIES — Vey Carol Reineccious, Grace Burkhardt, Jackie Stransberry, Marla Harms. JUNIOR MINXES—Ann Ransom, Nancy Long, Shirley Christof ferson, Amy Christensen. Maxine Heiderman, Dorothy Roker. 63 WHEELS OF THE Y—Chief John G. Moore, Charles Gomon, Jack Miner, Wally Reed, Jack Huddleston. In this past year the Hi-Y club has had the largest membership, 50 boys, and one of the most active years in its history. Several fellows, in fact, had to be refused membership because the constitution states that total membership cannot exceed 50. Sponsors are “Chief” John Moore, Y.M.C.A. secretary. and Coach Buford Grosscup of the high school. For first semester these officers were elected: Jack Miner, president; Wally Reed, vice president; Jack Huddleston, secretary, and Charles Gomon, treasurer. George ()ttman was ap]x inted sergeant-at- arms by the president, and Boh Barnes was chosen chaplain. The heavy program planned at the beginning of the semester kept the fellows busy during the first semester. At one meeting new members were initiated. After the follows took the oath to Ik loyal to the Hi-Y club, they were asked to sit on a certain chair—which was electrically wired. Shocking ordeal! At one meeting. Dean Frank (). McIntyre spoke to the club on psychology. He especially emphasized mental illnesses and their treatments. Four films were shown first semester: “The Alaskan Highway,” “Pheasants Galore,” “Moose and Deer Hunting,” and “Atomic Power.” A discussion on military training was conducted by Sid Johnson and Charles Gomon at another meeting. A few days before Christmas, the annual party for younger boys was given. Boys from the Monroe grade school came to the Christmas party at the Y, where they received gifts and candy from Hi-Y members. When second semester started, the following officers were elected: Jack Miner, president: Sid Johnson, vice president; Dean Prince, secretary, and Charles Gomon, treasurer. Bob Clark was appointed sergeant-at-arms, and Tom Scheurich, chaplain. During second semester, President Jack Miner suffered a cerebral hemorrhage, so that his duties were transferred to Vice President Sid Johnson. HI-Y MEMBERS—Front row: Charles R os sow.

Not only were the Tri-Hi-Y girls to have lots of fun and experiences, but every member benefited from the carefully-planned program set up at the beginning of each semester by the officers. 1 alks by Mr. J. Ward Anderson, Dr. George Lytton, and '‘Chief John G. Moore. Educational and really good movies were shown to the girls at several meetings. T he Y ear of the Locust. a book review by Mrs. Allen P. Burkhardt was immensely enjoyed. And the parties! A scavenger hunt was the first big party of the year, and many a couple dragged up the steps at the end very discouraged because they couldn’t finil perhaps a horseshoe nail or a red hair, or some other similar unimaginable object. There were a lot of other parties too. A Thanksgiving banquet with the Rev. Mr. Seeker speaking on “The Meaning of I hanksgiving, was a great success. To end the year, the girls threw an all-girl banquet, with the entire program by the girls themselves. A trip to (hnaha to see the opera, “Romeo and Juliet was one of the highlights of the year. Besides hearing the wonderful music, the girls were conducted on a tour through the airport in grand style. It was really fun, but some mighty incriminating pictures were the results of some camera fiends on the trip. “Oh miss it! That was yours.” Yippee, we won!“ That was the club's extra-super “don't-miss-it volleyball team. They even won some games. The girls played the Columbus girls several times, once winning it of l t games, and another time 10 of 12. One Thursday, Chief loaded the group in the Y-bus and off they went to play the Fremont Y girls, to avenge a previous walloping. The team was good, and the club is proud of them. FIRST SEMESTER LEADERS — Bernice Tinius, Irene Street, Joan Krueger, Phyllis Manske, Von Dell Glaser, Amy Christensen. 65 The curtain opened on the 1947-48 season of the National Thespians Dramatics Honor Society Troup 112 with the election of Phyllis Manske as president. Boh Light as vice president. and Shirle Miller as secretary-treasurer. Scene I, Act I: the holding of regular scheduled meetings. The society decided that this year they wanted the Thespian Society Troup 112 to be more than a social society, more of an informative one. At each meeting, one member conducted a discussion on some phase of dramatic work. Scene II, Act I was initiation week for the pledges. The pledges were Don Beckenhauer, Norma Jean Redden, Bill McNeely, Joan Rids- MAKEUP CREW — Seated: LaJean Kellner, Vey Reiniccius, Lea Joan Lanman, Kay Mathews, Shirley Spence.

Since no one had taken pity on the “old” Thespians when they had been initiated the previous year, they took no pity on the pledges. It was not an unusual sight to see a pledge laden down with a huge pile of books and notebooks way over his head. Act II was destined to be the bigger part of the Thespians' term of activity. The group decided to produce a play. Since the sponsor. Miss Maxine Trauernicht. did not have time to work with them all time time, Phyllis Manske was elected director. “And the Villain Still Pursued Her” was the play chosen. It is an old-fashioned melo-drama with a black-mus-tached villain, a manly hero, and fainting heroine. Those in the cast were Gene Koehn. Amy Christensen, Johnee Clarkson. Lois Gimbel, Bob Johnson, Bob Light. Jean W hite, and Russell Caauwe. After long hours and even weeks of practice, the play was finally ready to be given, and so on March 10 the play was presented before a convocation. During the same convocation, the annual informal Thespian initiation was held on the stage. The idea of the program was that the pledges had to prove to the active members their dramatic ability and their qualifications for being active Thespians. Lois Gimbel acted as master of ceremonies for this initiation. After they had given the play for the convocation. the cast was asked to give it also for the Junior College Mardi Gras. And later they also gave it for a Junior-Senior High P.-T.A. meeting. As the curtain closed on the final activities of the term for the Thespians, it closed with each member feeling that the year had been a most successful and most enjoyable one. 66 JUNIOR PLAY CAST—Phil Raasrh, Elizabeth Splinter, Bill McNeely.

From “Carmen to “Fiesta one of Norfolk High’s most talented choirs won honors and praise from many sources and hit a new high in choral music. Most of the credit should go, of course, to Miss Alice Dawson, the director, (and incidentally composer) who planned this year’s music program as well as one could wish and who molded the participating students, new and old, into one harmonious and cooper- Marion McClelland, Janet Steffen, Norma Jean Marshall.

Next, thanks go to the talented pianist, Margaret Korn, who, although she is graduating this year, will long lx? remembered as one of the most outstanding accompanists this school has ever had. After the first tedious work in September of classifying the various voices according to sections. the choir started off by singing an Americanized version of the French opera about Spain, the famous “Carmen.” With a battery of excellent soloists, including Sid Johnson. Jeanne Skill-stad, Susan McClelland, and Pat Suiter, there was only a minimum of difficulty in presenting a polished rendition to the Senior High student body, the Teachers Convention, and the Norfolk Woman’s Club. A little later came an event of particular significance to a picked group of vocalists — the state music clinic held at Kearney. During the first part of the bus trip, everyone had a rare old time, but as always the enthusiasm subsided and everyone began wondering just what the clinic would be like. They were not long in doubt. Fveryone’s stay was filled with experiences, good and bad. The sightseeing was good, but the hours they kept—bad! The guest director, Maynard Kline of Tulane University, was a hit with everyone from the first. His genial manner and flawless ability were admired by all. The rehearsals were tiresome but the final performance made up for that. A packed house applauded enthusiastically, and the choir cheered CHOIR OFFICERS AND SECTION LEADERS — Marianne Mathews, Harold Dieter, Miss Alice Dawson, Clark Hoffman, Charles Gomon, Don Olsen, Mary Kuzelka, Susan McClelland, Phyllis Manske. 70 Inff.

Their bus came sliding safely into home on icy roads very early Sunday morning. “Time marches on. and with Christmas just around the proverbial corner, they began preparing for their annual Christmas vespers. Miss Dawson introduced to them and to the college choir a Christmas cantata entitled “The Song of Christmas.” It is the story of Christ's birth set to a beautiful medley of golden carols and anthems. In addition, a series of lovely tableaux were prepared under tbe guidance of Miss Maxine Trauernicht to synchronize with the music and to create a visual effect. When it was finally presented, after long rehearsals, to a filled city auditorium, and with the assistance of a Hammond organ, the effect sought was achieved with no room for improvement. In January, the choir received another clinic invitation, this time to the Albion choral clinic. Since rehearsals lasted two days and Albion is not far from Norfolk, those attending came home Friday night and returned Saturday morning. Ah. who can forget the noise on those buses, followed by a period of quietness, punctuated only by the shuffling of cards or the clank of silver. For the second year the director at Albion was the noted choral composer and director, Nobel Cain. A great man for beating his stand with his baton, be really whipped the northeast Nebraska students into a commendable chorus. The performance was greeted warmly by the townsfolk and visiting music directors, parents, and friends. The trip home was marred (?) by a stalled bus upon which the bus drivers were obliged to spend hours in making repairs and securing parts. Alas, what memories. In the spring the choir held its annual spring festival; the theme—a Mexican fiesta. La Gran Mexicana F'iesta. Miss Dawson and Miss Patricia, director of Mexican dances, had visited Mexico and really knew how to add that Latin touch to the music, costumes, and scenery. The program consisted of two parts—first, a group of religious and modern numbers, including “I Am the Wind” by Miss Dawson. “The Swan” by Nobel Cain, and the moving “Battle Hymn of the Republicsecond came the fiesta with such familiar songs as “Cielito Lindo,” “The Toreador Song from Bizet’s Carmen, and “I a Cuca-racha. With all the colorful costumes worn by the fellows and the girls, the skillful dancers, and the music, one might have thought himself in the heart of old Mexico. • • The sophomore girls' triple trio chalked up a fine season record. They sang several times before the student lxxly and became much in demand around town as guest singers. At a pre-Christmas performance they bade a fond adieu to a departing member, Marla Harms. Jackie Stansberry replaced her. Although under Miss Dawson's supervision, these girls do much practicing on their own. They use a varied repertoire and were adept at handling any type of music. Next year they will be the junior triple trio and later the senior triple trio, for the vocalists do not change except in the case of one leaving. when another talented girl from the same class will fill in in her place. To this splendid group, the school figuratively doffs their hats. SOPHOMORE TRIPLE TRIO—Janet Burkhardt at piano. Sue Palmer, Pat Suiter, Marla Harms, Jeanne Skillstad. Susan McClelland.

Third row; Kay The Hi-Note club, formerly called the girls glee club, is a group of girls who learn the fundamentals of music such as harmony, pitch, voice control, and sight reading. Their achievements have been many. In the fall the girls spent a few weeks doing folk songs and dances and then got an early start working on their part in the annual Christmas vespers. The accompanist for the group was Penny Sloan. The numbers which they presented were ‘‘The Shepherd’s Christmas Song.” an Austrian folk carol; “Ye Watchers and Ye Holy Ones,” a seventeenth century German melody; “Glory to God in the Highest,’ by Pergolesi, with the Junior High choir; and “Beautiful Yuletide,” by Christiansen, presented with all the choirs combined. Of course you know the old saying about all work and no play making Jack a dull boy. Miss Alice Dawson, the director, realizing this, set about to give the girls a little special enjoyment. They began working on a group of gypsy songs, which, after many hours of enjoyable work, they presented to the students and faculty at a special convocation. The girls also invited their parents and friends to attend. Miss Dawson and the singers planned for weeks for the costumes, stage settings, and numbers for the program. W hen the day finally arrived, you could see the girls, hardly recognizable, moving back and forth on the stage in gay colorful gypsy costume. The program opened with a scene set around a gypsy campfire. Several gypsy and Czechoslovakian songs and dances were presented, among them “Play Gypsies, Dance Gypsies,’’ by Kalman; “Golden Earrings;’’ “O Peddler, Tell Mathews, Shirley Spence, Jackie Mills.

Me,” a Russian folk song; and “The Morning Song.” a Czechoslovakian folk song. The accompanist was Penny Sloan. Special solos and dances were given by Janis Severson, Phyllis Prince, Kay Mathews, Lorravne Bricker, Carol Weidner, Shirley Spence, and Shirley Rae Miller. The Hi-Note club also had a part in the annual spring concert. The girls, attired in their traditional black skirts and white blouses, presented a group of four folk songs: “O Peddler, Tell Me,’ a Russian folk song; “Handsome Soldier.” an English folk song; “Ho-La-Li,” a Bavarian folk song, and “In My Garden,” by Pitcher. The girls in the sixth period section of the Hi-Note club were also given a chance to learn to organize short entertainment programs for the home room periods. Miss Dawson appointed a number of girls to lead the committees, and the rest of the girls were chosen by the chairmen. Each girl was given charge of the home room jieriods for one week. A great variety of programs were presented, and all the girls seemed to enjoy it. There were musical games, quizzes, vocal selections, guest speakers, and guest talent among the programs given. Under the excellent direction of Miss Dawson, the girls spent a most enjoyable year learning the fundamentals of music. Although some of the girls left the Hi-Note club this spring, they will probably never forget the fun they had in 103. Their accomplishments have been many, their knowledge of music has increased, and they have enjoyed it to the fullest extent.

Mr-Merton V- Welch, Gene Eakes, Glen Koerting, Bob Light- The Norfolk High School orchestra has just completed one of its most successful years. The first event on its busy calendar was furnishing music for the All-Convention Banquet of the District III Teachers Convention at the city auditorium. at which it combined its talents with those of the Wayne High School orchestra. The state music clinic was held at Kearney. Those who were selected to go from the orchestra were Fat Suiter. Joan Krueger, and Marlene Schmidt, violinists; Janet Burkhardt. cellist; and Marion McClelland, bass violist. The clinic orchestra was under the able direction of Emmanuel Wishnow. who is director of the University of Nebraska symphony orchestra in Lincoln. Those attending the clinic received much valuable experience which aided them greatly the rest of the year. The main event of the year was the sixth annual winter concert, which the orchestra presented with the concert band. The former opened the concert with the playing of The Star Spangled Banner. This was followed by the first two movements of The Miniature Symphony by Scarmolin. Margaret Korn was featured at the piano in The Clock and the Dresden Figures. This was followed by “The Syn- copated Clock.' Susan McClelland was the vocalist in “Waves of the Danube, better known as “The Anniversary Song. “Marionettes,” played by the string section of the orchestra, was followed by “Mummers,” in which Marion McClelland was soloist on the bass viol. The four first violinists. Fat Suiter. Joan Krueger, Marlene Schmidt, and Darlene Bolender, were given a chance to test the power of their wrists in Bohm's Ferpetual Motion. The orchestra's portion of the concert concluded with the playing of the finale from Beethoven's Fifth Symphony. u •PERPETUAL MOTIONERS —-Pat Suiter.

The hand was helped much by Mr. John Grif-fin. who helped the members considerably with their marching routines at the beginning of the year. The hand has increased in membership, and so the school purchased twelve new uni- forms for them. They | erformed at two home football games, led by Drum Major Tom Heagle. Another big event of the year was the Harve of Harmony contest at Grand Island last fall. Marla Harms was chosen to be the Norfolk band’s entry for the Queen. Hand members left on two chartered buses at the unearthly hour of seven o’clock in the morning. As soon as they arrived they went to the high school to get their instructions for the rest of BAND—Front row: Dean McGinnis. Sid Johnson, Gene Brinkmeyer Elinor Hyde.

Norfolk was put in Class A competition. The performance in the afternoon was held in Grand Island's new stadium in front of a large crowd. It was a great day, since they were guests of the Grand Island Chamber of Commerce, but they came home with long faces because Norfolk's band had been eliminated before the finals. Despite the decision at this first try, loyal fans here in the high school still liclieve. as Dr. Allen I’, Hurkhardt told the band members before they left, “Even though the judges down there in Grand Island don’t think you're the best, we here in Norfolk still will.” Norfolk's band already has been invited to the third annual 1 larvest of Harmony to be held next year, and they plan to go back and prove to them who is really good. Moving pictures were taken of the different bands all during the day and then were brought around to the different schools to be shown to the band members. The Norfolk band was included in these pictures. The all-state clinic held at Kearney this year found Norfolk well represented with Dean McGinnis, Elizabeth Splinter, and Mabel Stevens selected to go from the band. A pep band was organized to play for pep rallies and basketball games. It was directed by Jack Fuesler, Junior College student. This year ensembles were revived again. There is a sax quartet consisting of Vernon Leu. Hob Waterbury, Geraldine Wohlfeil, and Joan Ra-kowski. They played during the intermission of the spring concert. There is also a cornet trio consisting of Hob Light, Hill Greckel, and Gene Fakes; and also a mixed clarinet quartet consisting of Dean McGinnis, Gene Brinkmeyer, Mabel Stevens, and Delores Van Doren, who played at numerous meetings around town. On February 10, the band presented its annual winter concert, unrer the direction of Mr. Welch. There was a very large attendance in spite of bad weather. The band made a very impressive and different entrance when they marched in to a drum beat, led by the twirling corps consisting of Dixie Montgomery, Hetty Allberry, Margaret Korn, and Nadeen Morris. Their first number was the school song. Since the date of the concert was so near Lincoln's birthday the band played a musical setting for Lincoln's Gettysburg Address, with Sid Johnson as reader. A picture of Lincoln was shown on a screen in the front of the room. Another number on the program was the “Clarinet Polka, featuring the Junior High clarinetists Jimmy Combs, Richard Farner, Everett Isaacson, Jerry Maas, and Gerald Moore. The audience clapped the quintet back for an encore. Another highlight of the concert was the novelty, “Coinin’ 'round the Mountain.” In it, each section of the band was featured with its own version of the piece, but a special feature seemed to be the part in which Elizabeth Splinter did her oboe solo. “( n the Mall.” the famous Goldwin march, was the closing number.

Journalists also are responsible for publishing The Panther, high school paper. Six capable people directed the destinies of this l? hs Milestone. Three were experienced seniors—Jack Miner. Ken Shriver, and Hob Clark. Two were up-and-coming juniors — Joan Krueger and Phil Jackman. And one was the adviser. Miss Jane McElhaney, who was always on band with suggestions and who worked as bard as any of the students on the book. The general makeup of the book was sj ear-headed by Jack early in the year, thereby enabling the rest of the staff to shoulder the remainder of the work when he was stricken ill the first part of March. Thanks to Mr. Hill DcVriendt of Lincoln a fine job of photography was done, and thanks to Jack and Miss Mac such improvements as individual junior pictures and personal senior writeups were introduced into the special fiftieth anniversary issue of the annual. The editors and all the staff workers want to leave behind for future Milestone workers this unwritten motto of theirs: “Our book wasn’t perfect, but we tried to make it perfect.” ••WHAT’S BEHIND THE COVER?” — Bus nrss Manager Ken Shriver, and Arl Editor Bob Clark, show Marlene Schmidt, Na-deen Morris, Janis Dickinson, Gloria Power, Dick Hurlburt, Jack Huddleston, and Joan Krueger, artists or ad solicitors.

This is the deadline, or so it was pounded into the heads of the journalists. The staff barely takes time to breathe after the deadline is over until they are confronted with the headaches and problems of makeup, planning the page arrangements and writing the headlines. The faithful staff members would turn out, rain or shine. (Occasionally it must have been snowing. for once in a while only a few showed up). Despite all. obstacles were overcome and as a reward for this work a super-duper school paper was printed. The Panther, printed last year for the first time in years, was improved this year by the addition of many more pictures and top writeups. Pictures and other more expensive additions were made possible because of the fine job of ad soliciting the kids managed.

Besides these executive staff members there were all the reporters and ad solicitors whose pictures you see on these pages, who did a super job of gathering up news and ads. We mustn’t forget the swell adviser the journalists have. Miss Jane McElhaney. She really did a wonderful job always, and was always willing to help out and give advice. She seemed to be always there when she was needed. She was very busy with her English and Journalism classes and the Milestone, but nevertheless she always helped us onto the right track when we were stuck. Even though all the hubbub and mess of the busy journalism room, Miss Mac always retained her sense of humor and made the work lots of fun. In addition to their regular publication duties, the Panther staff also sponsored a school dance. A1 Korn and his orchestra furnished the music, and candy, hot dogs, and pop were sold. More money to improve the Panther! The success of the Panther depended entirely on the staff, and this year’s staff did a beautiful job. To put out each paper, the kids covered worked cooperatively and willingly. And as a result of everyone doing his part, a better-than-ever Panther rolled off the presses this year. So — thanks to the hard-working staff and to Miss Mac and to everyone else who had anything to do with the Panther this year — it was great! MUST BE A GOOD WRITEUP—Norma McCune. Marilyn Kicstcr.
