Norfolk Senior High School Norfolk, Nebraska Volume 76 Publications Department A person does not achieve individualism by conforming. If no one dared to be different, we wouldn’t have a world, we’d have a person. Our country is built on individualism. You learn early in life to be yourself, think what you want, ... do your own thing. Everyone has his own ideas, and yours are just as good as the next persons: you've just got to voice it, try it, believe in it. You’ve got to DARE TO . . . DARE TO . . . 3 Dare To? As defined by Winston's Senior Dictionary, dare is to have courage: be bold enough; venture: often with dependent infinitive: to venture upon; have the courage for; brave: as to dare the perils of artic; to challenge: taunting defiance. 4 6 Table Of Contents Achieving S Being Involved 20 Excelling 66 Succeeding 92 Guiding 146 Promoting 166 Index 216 Achieve TOM GESELL Milestone Boy 1975 This is the beginning of a new day. God has given me this day to use as I will. What X do today is important because I am exchanging a day of my life for it. I want it to be gain, not loss: good, not evil: success, not failure, in order that I will not regret the price I have paid for it. 10 CINDY NELSON Milestone Girl 1975 This was the beginning of a new day for Tom Gesell and Cindy Nelson as they were chosen as Milestone Boy and Girl. They were picked on the basis of scholastic standing, leadership, character, and service to the school. A secret committee of juniors and faculty voted on them. Il HOMECOMING Cheryl’s Dream Becomes Reality “I thought that I was just imagining it and then I realized it was true when Sandy reached over, grabbed my hand, and congratulated me.” These were the thoughts expressed by Cheryl Moody, the 1974 Homecoming queen. Cheryl was crowned by Lindy Lear, the ‘73' queen, during the half-time ceremonies. Homecoming activities included a car caravan, car bash, and bonfire following the JV game Thursday night. Sunshine on My Shoulders proved to be an appropriate theme, as the sun was shining on Friday’s parade. After the game, Student Council sponsored a dance with music provided by ‘Blackberry Winter.’ LEFT: Queen Cheryl Moody reigns over halftime. BELOW: The queen and attendants are Cindy Nelson.

They also helped at parent-teacher conferences by directing the parents to the teachers. The society members earned money by working in the concession stand during basketball season. For an extra project, the group participated in a ride-along program with the police. The purpose of this project was to begin learning about the community and the role the police play in it. Students chosen for this honor club were selected from the previous spring’s junior class by a faculty council on the basis of character, scholarship, leadership, and service to the school. Two students who had moved from other towns were also accepted into the society. The new members were announced at a special convocation at the end of May.

Even though Tom Gesell came mainly to watch Vicki Matthies, he claimed that the guys (Jeff Burrus and Rog Chamberlin) put together equally good teams with only two practices. After the game, Rich Sintek was crowned the Powder Puff King by Mark Stortvedt, last year’s king. Other candidates were Joe Austin, Steve Farlee. Mike Test, and Mike Voigt.

Faythe went through a foreign exchange program called C.F.U. and toured Europe while she stayed with a family 15 miles out of Lucerne. Tom and Scott Gesell also were foreign exchange students for LABO, a program set up by the state of Nebraska and 4-H. They spent one month touring Japan, spending most of their time in the capitol. Tokyo. Faythe, Tom, and Scott experienced a different summer with different people in different places. They dared to be individual and had a great and memorable time doing it. Faythe Nelson reminisces over her relaxing vacation in Switzerland which she experienced last summer. To Be Involved PEP CLUB Peppy Pals Keep Boys in Suspense With the coming of the basketball season, it appeared that the lull of the storm was over. Pep club once again was functioning normally. Spirit was growing stronger everyday. Candy sales lowered the cost of bus rides and attendance doubled at away games. A new project for the girls was peppy pals. Every game week they decorated the boys' lockers with delicious goodies and signs. A sign contest was held among the three grades. They decorated hallways, and pep rallies on Fridays made game day seem even more complete. LEFT: Aroused pep club members cheer boys on at an exciting Grand Island basketball game.

During the summer there were practices and money making projects so the cheerleaders could attend clinic. Some of the responsibilities of being a cheerleader, according to reserve cheerleader Darcy Lichtenberg, “It’s working together to create enthusiasm and a good school image in the eyes of the public.” Varsity head cheerleader Colleen Tillson stated that some of the major worries were the success of pep rallies and whether the school would be spirited on the game day. Despite all of the extras involved, most cheerleaders found it rewarding. PANTHERS ABOVE: This year’s varsity basketball cheerleaders included Denise Dahlheim, Judy Walmsley. Cindy Nelson, head.

With only one senior varsity team and three junior varsity teams. Coach Richard Cross and assistant Mr. Allen Janovec didn’t expect a lot of wins. But. the varsity squad with a strong group of novice debaters proved its skill by winning their share of the trophies. Snow caused problems for the debate squad, first by stranding them after a tournament and then by forcing them to cancel out of another. The school also hosted its two annual invitational tournaments plus two NEATO tournaments for small. Norfolk area schools. This year also brought an increase in individual speakers who brought home many trophies for the group.

JUNIOR CLASS PLAY My Three Angels” Comes to NHS Norfolk High School Presents The junior sponsored class play. My Three Angels proved to be a success which was due to the time and work that was spent preparing it.

Tryouts were held early in January, with practice continuing until the performance, February 24 and 25. The delightful music and the antics of the children kept the audience moving, as the musical had few variations from the actual musical. The musical showed the struggle of a retired sea captain and widower, George Von Trapp, as he tried to raise seven children alone. The family had little luck with governesses until Maria, a postulant from the nearby abbey, came. She soon changed life in the Von Trapp family from one of coldness to one of family love. Maria fell in love with Captain Von Trapp and they eventually married. TOP: Maria is surrounded by the children as she tried to teach them ‘Do Re Mi.'

Some of the modern selections were Theme From Shaft, several selections from the Beatles, and Funny Girl Overture. A special selection for the orchestra was Haydn’s Toy Symphony which featured the toy instruments, the cuckoo, the nightingale, and the quail.

The varsity football team started the year successfully, beating Millard on foreign turf, only to have a good start fall through, losing the next week to Beatrice by one point in front of home fans. Papillion was an easy conquest: the Panthers won by a 25 point margin, but then fell to Fremont by six. Losing Baldwin to a leg injury after the first half gave the Panthers a setback, and anxious gridders couldn’t hold the half-time lead. The defensive line was ready for action against the Ralston Rams as they held them scoreless. South Sioux was a disappointing game: the Panthers had one touchdown called back and another fumbled away on the one-yard line. Other problems sent boys and fans home with thoughts of revenge. It was a cold night for G.I. while Joel Austin’s magic toe warmed it up for the Panthers by kicking a 35-yard field goal with :02 left in the second quarter. The Panther defense was strong this season, with only 83 points scored against them. 21 coming from Columbus. Rated Columbus was a big game, with much excitement: Norfolk led 10-7 at intermission. Scoring twice in the second half, the Panthers dominated 17-7. but Columbus had a comeback with two touchdowns. Norfolk ended the season 4-4-1. 71 VARSITY FOOTBALL Six Gridders Rate on Conference Lists Special honors this year went to six Panthers.

Along with that comes the hiring of additional faculty members and the business of clearing up last minute details on the junior high and grade school additions. The board members met the first Monday of every month. They were looking forward to the opening of the addition for the fall term of 1975-76. ABOVE: Board members are FRONT ROW: president; and Earl Mitchell. BACK ROW: Mrs. Margaret Robinson; J. Paul McIntosh. George Reed; Edgar Hamm, and Don Dieter.

His duties and responsibilities kept him involved in a lot of paperwork. Mr. Robert Baker served as assistant superintendent and also found himself busy at his desk with paperwork. His job included overseeing the financial matters of the school system, including coordination of the hot lunch program at the schools. Most students in the school knew who Mr. Jerry Neely was. He was the director of secondary education, and on a typical day you would find him sitting in on classes, working with teachers, or visiting with students on curriculum changes. TOP LEFT: Dr. Lavender pauses a moment from his busy schedule for a picture. TOP RIGHT: Mr. Baker checks over the latest figures on school lunch attendance. ABOVE: Mr. Neely works on possible changes for next year's curriculum in the school addition. 149 PRINCIPALS Doran, Millsap Accept New Positions This was Jeff Burkink’s first year as principal at NHS after serving last year as acting principal for Roger Maxwell. Mr. Burkink had little free time in his average work day, which sometimes ran from 7:30 A.M.'til as late as 9:00 P.M. He often had stacks of paperwork to do or a line of people waiting to see him. Being assistant principal was a change for Vern Doran who replaced Gary Randles. Mr. Doran was previously a guidance counselor for three years here. He still had direct contact with students but in a different manner than he had as counselor. When Mr. Randles left, he not only vacated the duty of assistant principal, but also that of athletic director. He was replaced by Tom Millsap, who remained as head basketball coach, but no longer taught tech math or geometry. He coordinated athletic activities for senior high. 150 ABOVE: Mr. Burkink 19 always hero to solve problems of both faculty and students.

RIGHT: During the juniors' health check. Mrs. Drda tests Sue Breach's hearing. GUIDANCE Kleinsasser Joins NHS Guidance Staff Since Mr. Doran became assistant principal, it left the class of ’75 without a guidance counselor, so John Schlomer took over. He was previously with the class of 74. Mr. Schlomer took care of college registrations, college testing, and scholarship preparations for the seniors. Mike Lake was back for his second year at NHS as counselor for the class of ’76. Parent-Teacher Conference coordination kept him busy as well as keeping the pop and candy machines running for the students. The first year at NHS proved interesting for Arden Kleinsasser. He not only served as counselor but as a friend to many students. Mr. Kleinsasser sponsored Student Council and took care of the school’s marquee. ABOVE: Mr. Kleinsasser cant believe some of the crazy things students do at NHS. RIGHT: Mr. Schlomer reads some of his recent mail from colleges for student information. The Milestone staff put Mrs. Lydia Drda on the guidance page because, besides being the school nurse, she served as a counselor to many students. She handled all emergencies from slivers to sprained toes. 151 LEFT: Mrs. Sporleder answers the phone as a for Mr. Burkink.

Her replacement was Mrs. Linda Jensen. Among her duties were the handling of finances of activities at NHS and being Mr. Burkink’s personal secretary. Anothor addition this year to the secretarial staff was Mrs. Pat Sporleder. Her duties were mainly concerned with recording attendance and the correspondence with parents concerning student attendance. She came in from 8-12 A.M. every day. Mrs. Donna Denker returned to NHS for her second year. A ’jack of all trades,’ Mrs. Denker served as secretary to Mr. Doran and to the guidance counselors. She worked with permanent records, down letters, and general typing for the office. 152 LEFT: Mrs. Norton routinely signs another pass.

LIBRARIANS-VISUAL AIDES Aides Have Hopes for New Building Added space, soundproof walls, increased book shelf space, conversational area. These are just a few benefits Mrs. Mary Melis and Mrs. Mary Norton are looking forward to in next year’s new library. Both are always lending a hand in finding books for those baffled students. They seem to think the new location will be quieter and are anxious to continue their jobs as librarians there. When asked how Mr. Don Meilike, visual aids, could use the bigger library, he replied, “I am looking forward to the new library media center in the new school addition. There will be expanded space for equipment storage, checking out material, and for video taping.” Without the special help and assistance from these persons, NHS’ desires would be unfulfilled. 153 KITCHEN Cooks Work To ‘Fill’ 1800 Students ABOVE: Mrs. Eunice Wragge.

Fixing a Type A school lunch that would pass government inspections and halfway please the students was their main objective. The normal day at work began at 6:30 a.m. with the preparation of the daily bread. At 8:00 they started work on the noon meal, having the food for the junior high, and Monroe, and Washington grade schools ready to ship out by 10:15. Serving lunch from 11:25 to 12:05 occupied only a small part of their time. Then came the biggest part of all—cleaning up. Trying to keep 1800 students full and happy was no easy job. ABOVE: Mr. Charles Thayer vacuums the library toward the end of the day. LEFT: Mr. Ed Hansen and Mr. Leonard Wiehn wax the floor during Parent-Teacher Conferences while students are out of the way.

This statement by Miss Wagner was very familiar to journalism students preparing themselves for positions on the PANTHER and MILESTONE staffs. Friends, Romans, Country... was a phrase made known in sophomore English. Students soon realized that some of those oldies but goodies” were found in English books. Any Volunteers? was actually a useless question in speech class. Fortunately, the other semester was spent in American literature, which cushioned the shock from speech. This year, as last, there was no English requirement for seniors. They had a choice of one semester courses, grammar and composition, or English literature, for electives. Teachers of English included Richard Cross, Allen Janovec, Miss Gayle Jenkins, Laverne McKown, Mrs. Eva Meinke, Mrs. Lois Mitchell, Mrs. Susan Schmidt, and Miss Ruth Wagner. ABOVE: Cindy Nelson.

First year classes learned to speak and understand the language while the second and third year classes did more reading and answering of Spanish questions. The language lab was used to practice conversations. 'Bonjour!” was the familiar greeting to French students. Armed with books, tape exams, and take home records, students became accustomed to speaking their second language. This proved to be sneaky if your friends couldn’t understand you. Language teachers were Mrs. Grace McKenzie, who taught French, and the two Spanish teachers. Miss Karen Thompson and Robert Orta. 159 TOP LEFT: Tammy Hopkins dilligently studies her Fronch assignment. TOP RIGHT: French students practice their dialogues. ABOVE: Puzzling sounds come from these students as they carol in Spanish before Christmas break. SCIENCE Science Students Search for Answers Yes, you may have heard some screams echoing out of the biology classes as they dissected such things as clams, fish, frogs, and worms during the year. They kept busy studying functions and structures of plants and animals, and even learned some astonishing things about the human body. While physiology students studied matter, motion, and human systems in greater detail, physics classes delved deeper into the sciences. The science classes were taught by Hal Kuck. Gene Whealy, Ralph Rabenberg, and Elmer Saltz. LEFT: Jane Walmsley and Sharon Vawser converse over fascinating marine life. BELOW: Biology students look on as Mr. Kuck demonstrates how to dissect a clam. 160 MATH Interesting Figures Baffle Students Technical math, geometry, algebra, advanced algebra, and senior math were among the math courses offered at Norfolk High this year. These courses were offered for both vocational and college bound students. Grant Arment and Elmer Saltz taught algebra II classes, Miss Carol Hoermann instructed geometry and tech, math I and II classes. Ralph Rabenberg and Dan Yost instructed algebra I classes with Dan Yost also teaching two geometry classes.

RIGHT: Mr. Fairbairn answers questions on the constitution. BELOW: Reading the text book, among other projects, keeps students occupied in Mr. Boughn's American history class. New books and courses, student choice, additional teachers ... these were some of the changes in the Social Studies Department this year. Sophomores found themselves taking the required course of American history, taught by Mr. Keith Boughn or Mr. Ron Scribner. Juniors had a choice this year of taking a one nine weeks course of world religions, cultures of Japan, or cultures of Latin America. The other three nine weeks were spent on general world cultures. Mr. Ron Bruening and Mr. Dennis Newland served as instructors in this area. Senior problems, as the old course was called, was subdivided into five courses, each lasting nine weeks. Meaning of communism and constitutional interpretation were required. with choice of consumer economics, criminal justice, or sociology for the other two nine weeks. These courses were taught by Mr. Keith Fairbairn and Miss Donna Hink. Mr. Bruening never ceases to be amazed at the antics of the students in study hall. 162 LEFT: Colleen Tillson and Paula Anderson lead the orchestra as first violinists. ABOVE: Mr. Grossman speaks to the group. VOCAL-INSTRUMENTAL Instruments, Voices Harmonize NHS Music at NHS came as the result of hard work from three fine instructors and a group of talented kids. Early in the spring tryouts were held to pick varsity and sophomore choirs. Mr. Dave Anderson was director for both groups. They gave numerous concerts throughout the year, including Vespers, and each concert offered a wide variety of music. Band, consisting of about 125 members, was directed by Mr. Don Schumacher. Practice was held every day, first period. They gave concerts, performed at varsity football games, and marched in local parades. Mr. John Grossman, director, and 30 musicians made up the NHS orchestra. Besides practicing every day during fifth period, they also met before school on Wednesday mornings. Besides their concerts, they attended out-of-town clinics. ABOVE: Mr. Anderson leads the altos through a difficult part. RIGHT: Band members prepare for another rehearsal in the morning. 163 ARTS AND CRAFTS Artists Learn To Express Themselves A wide variety of arts and crafts kept interested students busy at NHS this year.

Memories of still another Panther year gone ‘bye.1 It was a year filled with excitement, friendship, new experiences, love, joy. sorrow, achieving, daring . . . 214 Make me too brave to lie or be unkind Make me too understanding, too, to mind The little hurts companions give, and friends The careless hurts that no one quite intends. Make me too thoughtful to hurt others so Help me to know The inmost hearts of those for whom I care, Their secret wishes, all the loads they bear, That I may add my courage to their own. May I make lonely folks feel less alone, And happy ones a little happier yet. May I forget What ought to be forgotten; and recall Unfailing, all That ought to be recalled, each kindly thing, Forgetting what might sting. To all upon my way. Day after day, Let me be joy, be hope! Let my life sing! 215 -Max Ehrmann- Index A Academics-158.165 Ackerman. Rod-87.132 Adams. Jane-94.103 Adams. Jeff-132 Adelung.
