The Broncos proved It with a victory over undefeated Lapeer East by an outtand- Ing score of 62-55. The fans played a big role In the suc- cess of our team by giving them lots of support and confidence. The North Branch Bands also had a great deal of success, but also had an experience that they will forever stay in their minds, the chance to go over seas and tour Swe- den in April. Time seemed to pass by quickly throughout the 1980-81 year. Ronald Reagan-our new Ourselves With president was elected. The hostages that were held captive in Iran were released. Even though nation wide events were occuring, not a whole lot changed within the school environ- ment. Everyone took part In making the school year one to remember and by looking back they can recall the Sights. Sounds, and Feelings of their high school days. HOMECOMING Another successful Homecoming at NBHS passes. It was a time for each of us to remem- ber, especially for the Senior Class who have participated in their last Homecoming. The Victory jug was handed over to the Sen- iors for their outstanding spirit displayed throughout the week. To top our Homecoming festivities, the football team pulled through with flying col- ors, a victory over Bad Axe with a score of 28- 14. The Broncos finished the season as Co- Champions along with Cass City for the Thumb B League.

Each class battled it out for the Victory jug ’ and for each winning of each event during the activities assembly. Seniors took the number 1” spot for the victory jug and the all week events. Also, the Senior class featuring The Birds and the Bees” won the Gong Show by displaying their musical and dancing talents. Seniors, Juniors, and Freshmen shared first place for loat compe- tition. ACADEMICS This years' academic cur- riculum was kept up to par. even though the school had to cut the budget extremely low. Each day we come to school and find our teachers here ready to teach us old and new things about histroy. our body, and our mind. Even though we take them for granted each day. we appreciate them for helping us learn. Our Board of Education has helped our school in many ways. They've had to face some tough decisions and tried to deal with problems to the best of their capability. The decisions they make are for the good of the school system.

Our School Board members vol- unteer countless hours and make many decisions that affect each of us. Our Superintendent, Mr. Gleeson, and our high school administrators, Mr. Lambert and Mr. Schleicher also fit the mold of dedicated and hard working. To make our system run-we need them.

As Seniors, we worked and played hard, making our last homecomings memorable. The games and pep assemblies added the color so essential to making our last year enjoyable. Every- one had the chance to get involved, with the Powderpuff game and bon fire, the Gong Show (which helped us to win the victory Jug!) and the Senior boys playing against the faculty as just a couple of examples of the activities going on. All of our athletes played well, as would be expected from the Seniors of 1981! 1. Really dessed up. Doug Og den holds the mlc for Kelly Cur ell playing the bones. 2.

Most found it quite different from the country lifes- tyle here in North Branch. The Big Apple was exciting, roaring subways, tall buildings, flying taxis, and the mil- lions of people fasinated us all. Over all, every- one had a good time. It was a chance for those who went to get to know each other better and see a little bit of the world too. To New York!! Senior Trip 1981 Date: May 26th-29th What We Did Visited Niagra Falls Toured The UN Building Saw Two Boardway Plays (“They’re Playing Our Song’ and “Annie”) Visited The Empire State Building Had A Good Time! Our Foreign Exchange Students Our foreign ex- change students were simply terrific this year. Vincentie Arre- gui (Jake), our guy from Spain lived with Mr. and Mrs. Clare Lake, Suzanne Ohlsson from Sweden lived with Mr. and Mrs. Rich- ard LaVell. From Co- lumbia we had Alfonso Valencia and from Bra- zil we had Arthur Vianne. Alfonso stayed with Dr. and Mrs. James Siegler, and Ar- thur with Mr. and Mrs. Duane Dodds. We hope they enjoyed their stay here as much as we en- joyed having them!!!! 40 The End-The Beginning Graduation-The biggest time of the en- tire school year for the class of “81’ !! This is what we’ve worked for all these years. Starting a new life, ending an old one. Some of the changes are adding new excitement to our lives, some will take us from friends and good times we had as students at N.B.H.S. As graduation cere- monies drew to a close, we all felt closer to the good friends we had, and those who were just casual “hello’s” in the hall. Although the ending of this stage in our lives left many of us both joyful and sad, we knew we could make the best of our- selves and help the world around us. FFA The Future Farmers of America led by officers-Lance Walker, Danny Thornthwaite, John Ferkowitz, Dean Trott and Jeff Williams, and advised by Mr. Parrott, had a very pro- ductive year. One of their high- lights was the Food for Amer- ica program in which the F.F.A. presented all kinds of farm ideas to the 3rd grade stu- dents. 44 FHA 1. The Future Homemakers of Amer- ica were advised by Miss Petzold and were led by Doris Laur. The highlight of their year was the spring trip that they took to Washington D.C. and to Myrtle Beach. 45 Drama Club The North Branch High Drama Club presented the play '‘Cheaper by the dozen . It was held at the Jefferson Intermediate, in the gym on Saturday. January 17. 1981 and Monday. January 19, 1981 from 7 to 9 p.m. The play was about a father (Chris May), his wife (Mary Yuhasz). and their 12 children. Dad was an efficiency expert and tried to run his home like a factory. His children rebel, especially daughters Anne (Beth Knox). Ernestine (Cindy Mitchell), and Martha (Katrina Summersett). Dad thought it was necessary to chaperone every date. Dad also dlssapproved of perfume, make-up, and silk stockings. Dad had a heart problem and he knew he didn't have very much time to live. While on a business trip he died of a heart attack. The children found out about it and asked why they weren’t told about his condition. The mother told them he wanted them to remember him the way he was: he didn't want them to see him sick. There was also additional humor that was provided by a boy-friend, who was a cheerleader, and a grouchy old school teacher. Congratulations on the great performance of the cast and to the director. Mrs. LeTourneau. “Cheaper By The Dozen 1. Joe Scales (Dave Brldger) called and asked Anne (Beth Knox) to go out for a soda. She's very excited as she’s waiting to tell her mother. 2.

Bob Atkins set the first school record with a score of 43 but foreign exchange stu- dent Suzanne Ohlsson soon broke it and she now holds the record with a 38. The squad had a successful year with a 2- 14 win-loss record. But more importantly they learned valu- able tips on the game of golf and lessons in sportsmanship. The experience gained this year will be put to good use' next year. JV’s Produce Winning Season First Row-C. Wallington. J. Carter. R. Mazzoni, C. Woiden, B. Strich. R. Richmond, B. Petitt.

Harsens, and Shad- ley. they finished their season with a 6-3 mark. Many of the players move to Varsity next year and help to uphold North Branch’s reputation of having outstanding football teams. Cheerleaders keep their spirits high as the team watches the game. 72 Freshman Go Undefeated The Freshman football squad had a very successful year as they fin ished with a 7-0 record. Coach Ja- mison, Harsens and Shadley were very proud of their team because they showed good sportsmanship and worked hard to defeat their op- ponents. Both the coaches and the boys did a fine job representing North Branch and enjoyed working together as a team. A very strong team can be expected for next years Junior Varsity football squad. 73 The girls basketball team, under new Coach Tim Zeeman posted a 7 and 10 record. The Broncos played better than their record stated as they lost seven of the ten games by four points or less. Team honors went to: Cindy Kohler most Improved, Sue Nellenbach best offense, Cheryl Morey best defense, and Kim Mar ston-most valuable.

We can expect great Vol- leyball action from these girls in the next few seasons. 80 The 1980-81 Bronco cheerleading squads kept their spirit through the wins and the losses. We salute these girls who lead the cheers and the laughter when there is a victory, and who stands behind the team, ungrudingly when there is a defeat. They have played an important part in the success of our athletic teams. The cheerleaders hard work, in and out of school, shows the spirit and pride found in each student at N.B.H.S. 1.

Prom 1981 THE ROSE Some say love, it is a river that drowns the tender reed Some say love, it is a razor that leaves the soul to bleed Some say love, it is a hunger an endless aching need I say love. It is a flower and you its only seed It s the heart afraid of breaking that never learns to dance It's the dream afraid of waking that never takes the chance It’s the one who won’t be taken who cannot seem to give And the soul afraid of dyin’ that never learns to live When the night has been to lonely and the road has been to long And you think that love is only for the lucky and the strong Just remember In the winter far beneath the bitter snow Lies the seed that with the suns love in the spring, becomes ROSE The 1981 Junior-Senior Prom will be remembered by all who attended. It was a dance held at the Deerfield Town Hall. May 16. 1981 at 8:00 till 12:00 p.m. The theme was “The Rose” and the band “Night Fall” kept everyone dancing.
