But, somehow they ' re a little different. There is something about all these that is hard to capture. It can ' t be transported to any other place because of its uniqueness. The people here are what make it so with their superballs, Would you believe? , and sweat- shirts.

S u t For each year of English two credits are received. English is required in the ninth, tenth, and eleventh grades. English is also required in the seventh and eighth grades. One semester is usually concerned with English and the other semester deals with literature. Senior English is an elective; offered to students who will probably go to college. Students not only learn grammar but also make book reports, learn how to use references, and learn to appreciate works of literature. ■ B j HI ■1 -3H B ' Miss Fisher Mr. Gray Miss Griffin Mrs. Jinks Mr. Jones Mrs. Price A scene from the Christmas play produced by the newly formed dramatics class includes Sharon Mills, Ray Meyer, Jon Fisher, and Larry Dixon. Mrs. Jinks appears to be saying, What ' s he, some kind of a nut? Sorry, Miss Meyer, but this is a run on sentence. ' onei a tfua( This year Northficld offered three foreign lan- guages. Spanish was taught by Mrs. Cramer, French was taught by Mrs. Deck, and Latin was taught by Mrs. Jinks. Each of the classes formed or continued the Language Clubs. The Latin Club gave Mrs. Jinks a going-away party near the end of school. Mrs. Deck, French teacher, has control of every booth in the language laboratory while at the monitor ' s station. Mrs. Cramer Mrs. Deck The French class is hard at work again in the language laboratory. Mr. Riley makes himself comfortable for a deep discussion in Indiana history class. SoccaC Using a map, Mr. Scheerer discusses facets of junior-required U.S. History. Social Studies begin early with freshmen orienta- tion which studies careers, curriculums, and social be- havior. Required United States History, American Government, and economics are supplemented with sociology and psychology as electives. Mr. Riley, Mr. Kaltenmark, Mr. Price, and Mr. Scheerer are teachers of these subjects. Mr. Riley Mr. Scheerer Mr. Price ( uccUutce ' P.

Penrod and Mr. Fansler discuss problems and help students plan their sched- ules for the coming year. Physical Education is required in grades seven, eight, nine, and ten. In the past year, advanced physi- cal education has been offered. Miss Mussleman and Mr. Smucker, our teachers, also teach health to the tenth grade. This class deals with the growth, func- tion, and care of the body. This is the head of our Guidance Department?

Mr. Smucker Miss Mussleman 13 TfUt Mr. Bechtold Mr. Christie Mr. Reahard The Mathematics department includes the basic general math, Algebra I and II, and plane geometry as well as one semester each of trigonometry and col- lege math. These two subjects are designed to give seniors, in the fourth year of math, a bridge for the gap between high school and college mathematics. Mr. Bechtold, Mr. Christie, and Mr. Reahard encourage fundamental study as well as a deeper study of the principles. Teachers meet after school to discuss student problems. Mr. Bechtold stops to ask, Any questions before going on to the next problem? 14 cccHce Mr. Eiler Mr. Graham Sciences included in the Northfield curriculum this year are: algebra, geometry, trigonometry, general mathematics, biology, physiology, chemistry, physics, and general science. The Math and Science Club sponsored a Science Fair this spring. The club also showed films and sold concessions at ballgames. Becky Pobst works extra hours to complete her project for the science fair. Cheryl Siferd and Lois Quivey find that measuring the intestines of a pig during dissection is not one of Mr. Eiler ' s most enjoyable physiology assigmnents. 15 ttcUutfiozC t ' tU Mr. Shaw Mr. Smelser The Industrial Arts Department for this year has been attempting to capitalize on the basic principles of woods, metals, and electricity through personal projects of various sorts. The Industrial Arts Department sponsored the Northfield Chapter of the American Industrial Arts Association. The courses were used many times during the work meetings throughout the entire year. Mr. Smelser, head of the department has instructed numerous boys in the proper uses of the shop ma- chines and welding equipment. Many students have undoubtedly taken unsafe patterns of work, however; the problem of safety is stressed to the utmost by Mr. Shaw and Mr. Fisher as well as Mr. Smelser. A slight distraction during drafting class disturbs intent minds and then everyone goes back to work. 16 4 ffucuitune Mr. Cain Mr. Hendrix The agriculture department includes classes of crop production, farm machinery, plant science, ani- mal science, and soil science. This department is not necessarily planned for those boys who are not at- tending college as it includes several college-bound students. A co-curricular organization, the Future Farmers of America, is sponsored by this depart- ment through the advisors, Mr. Cain and Mr. Hendrix. Well, gang, if the teachers can ' t get it started, we might as well give up. Jody Baker, Carl Fields, and Steve Pressler hurry to get a project finished before the end of class. 17 ' f¥o4He Sco to fuc Mrs. Petty Mrs. Cooper The Northfield curriculum offers three years of Home Ec. with a fourth year only for Seniors who have had no previous training. The year is divided into two sections. One semester is devoted to foods while the other semester is devoted to sewing.

Many students look hack to the night of Deeemher 11, 1965, with fond memories. Approximately sixty couples enjoyed the Christmas Dance entitled, Won- derland by Night. Through the dim lights, a false ceiling of red and silver could be seen. Since the weather wouldn ' t co-operate, the seniors used artificial snow to give the effect of snow drifting outside the windows. In the center of the floor, a huge candle lit the flame of an enjoyable evening. The Manchester College stage band provided the music for this en- chanting evening. The faculty also enjoyed the atmosphere of the Christmas spirit. Judy Meyer and Ron Smith join the festivities. 23 Tlon HCH.

On the evening of March 11, the Norsemen began to arrive in anything wild ranging from overalls to ragged cut-offs. The student council sponsored the girl-ask-boy event and hired the Fabulous Intruders to provide the music. Only two weeks later on March 25, these same stu- dents met for the junior class-sponsored Spring Fling in formals and suits. They danced under pastel-colored streamers near the center-hansino- il- lusive butterfly to the melodies of the Xoteables. Randy Taylor wonders why he can ' t find the tape in this junior-made mess. 25 ci«Uoft ' P tefiOAC c f€4t S €Ht ean.

Susan McVicker and Gary Kusiak keep the punch coming for thirsty attenders. As the tempo changed and some girls discarded shoes, Sandy Weeks and Tim Foster join the numerous fast dancers. Soft music, the false ceiling, and the centered chandelier led the couples to slow, romantic dancing. 7(Htci ' 7Hid io The Juniors hosted the Seniors for an evening of formal enjoyment on May 14. During the banquet in the school cafeteria John Krom, president of the Junior class, welcomed the guest Seniors. Senior class president, Mike Baker, accepted for the honored guests. Jim Snapp, magician, presented a short pro- gram after a Senior candle lighting service. During the prom from eight to twelve, the Juniors, Seniors, Faculty, and guests danced to the melodies of the Humbugs . As the evening ended many dreams were completed. As the evening becomes shorter, the seniors become a little sad that this, their senior prom, will soon end. .:;,. ' l ' ' ;«if,,i«i|i( ' i '  v ' ,tH ..

Mr. Shermer, Ken Dyson, and Mr. Dolson, Jon Fisher, are startled by Hildegarde ' s beauty preparation, a mud pack. We Shook The Family Tree , a three aet family comedy by Christopher Sergei, wa.s taken from the book by Hildegarde Dolson. The Northfield High School Drama Club pre.s -nted this play r n April 29 and .30. This story centered around Hildegarde ' s life with her family. During this particular .segment she is involved in the problems of a teen-age girl who wants to go to the prom. Several parts were double cast in this play to give more students an opportunity to experience acting and staging. The Drama Club also supplied the stage manager. Randy Jeffrey; lighting directors, John Swan and Scottie Chamberlain; prompters, Kris Keffaber and Jane McKinley; publicity manager, Maribess Lefforge; and make-up directors, Marge Maurer and Rita Pankop. Several businesses cooperated to make the play successful. Miller Furniture Co. supplied all of the furniture and Smith-Alsop Co. donated the wallpaper. Mrs. Cramer, Drama Club sponsor, was the director of the play and received a silver tray from the cast for her contributions. The play ends in a tumult as the entire cast fights over Mr. Shermer while Freddie and Hildegarde leave for the prom. Hildegarde, Marcia Friermood, pleads with her mother, Cheryl Groendyke, not to make her go to the prom with Freddie. 31 iQd u)Ji; hi- Only a few more steps and Don Fleck, who has just received his diploma, will no longer be a senior.

The high school chorus, directed by Mrs. Huntington, sang I Know Not What The Future Hath and Make America Proud Of You . After the scriptures by Reverend Paul Horine and the address by Reverend Paul Tonovitz, Bibles were presented to each senior on behalf of D. E. Speicher. Preparations include collar-pinning, hair-combing, and gown- straightening for Kathy Bowen and her mother. Jim Baldwin receives his Bible presented by Reverend Dres- sier on behalf of Mr. D. E.

Al- though a few technical difficulties plague the laser, the club hopes to put it in operating condition this summer and present it to the school this fall. On March 19 the Math and Science Club spon- sored the Northfield High School Science Fair. The winners in their respective divisions are: George Gordon, biology; Dave Crockett, physics; Bob Du- bois, chemical products; Herbert Baker, chemical demonstrations; Tom Worthington, general science; Mark Elrod, junior. In the evening approximately three hundred patrons viewed the seventy-seven exhibits. George Gordon ' s exhibit on anti-hemiphilic globulin and Herb Baker ' s fuel cell both won thirds at the Regional Science Fair at Manchester College. A panel of professors from Huntington College acted as judges for our local Fair. First Row: Mr. Graham, Sponsor, Scottie Chamberlain: Secretary, Bob Kendall: Treasurer.

Under the leadership of Mrs. Martin, the school nurse, great strides were made to initiate the Future Nurses Club. A constitution was written and accepted by the National affiliation. The girls were very busy helping to conduct the tuberculin tests and eye tests. In February they held a Valentine cake raffle. Early in the spring, the girls received their pins, a small octagon with a flaming lamp on it. The year guard is connected to the pin by a chain.

This club was organized to give the student a better understanding of the qualifications required for a teaching career. Through the Exploratory Teaching Program the members become acquainted with the ac- tivities of a teacher in a school room. This helps them to gain an insight in the daily life of a teacher. This experience along with their knowledge of the teach- ing profession will help the members to decide if they are qualified to become a teacher. , , 4. efi t4 Second First Row: Ruth Ogan, Marylin Brown, Becky Pobst, Rita Rehak, Jane Kisner, Jennifer Wilcox, Sally H i p s k i n d , Carol Swan, Cathy Poole.

Dear friends: I am sad to leave this wonderful country, especially the state of Indiana. It was too bad that the senior class did not give me a bigger suitcase in order to put Northfield High School in it and take all of you to my country, but my heart is big enough to keep all the memories I have of you. I am not going to enumerate all the good times I had here because it is a long history but I want to tell you that I enjoyed every minute, every second at Northfield. Finally, let me say how thankful I am to all students, teachers and people who took part in some way for giving me such a wonderful year. God bless you !
