Misty water colored memories of THE WAY WE WERE. Scattered pictures Of the smiles we left behind , Smiles we gave to one another, for THE WAY WE WERE. Can it be That it was all so simple then? Or has time Rewritten every line? If we had the chance To do it all again . . . Tell me, would we? Could we? Memories, May be beautiful and yet. What ' s too painful to remember We simply choose to forget. So it ' s the laughter We will remember Whenever we remember THE WAY WE WERE. Someone once said , a picture is worth a thousand words . In this book with pictures we have uied to relate the many events that occurred during our 1974-75 school year in reuospect of The Way We Were. Looking back on our days in the castle this year, we remember the glory of basketball wins, and the horror and disgust of bomb scares. In the fall, Laura Lindemann was crowned Home- coming Queen following weeks of preparation fo; the football attraction. We worked hard in our classes to receive recognition for ourselves, our teachers, and our parenu. Our gym was enlightened with the painting of an Oscar high on the wall. In hopes of a decrease in van- dalism , a new alarm system was installed here . We were known as the mighty Knights; we were often categorized as farmers. At ballgames we clutched elbows in spirited friendships. When the band placed 18th in the State Fair contest and when we carried home the ACAC uophy from Fon Wayne , we all took pleasure in saying these were accomplishments for our school. And integrated in this maze of collected and unified spirit, we stood alone. The test we signed, the grade card handed to one, or the free shot that decided the outcome , produced the individuality of us all . It is a picture of the way .i.- v ' V ., ;j. ■ r '  !. 5o7 ie ca Z us ' ' Fa its ' ' Knights ' ' Memories, like the corners of my mind r The Night of the Knights ' ' Homecoming always proves to be one of the most favored activities at Norwell. This year, the week of Home- coming became more recognized with the student body enthusiastically taking part in the events of the days and with the scorching bonfire held during the middle of the week. The Night of the Knights, theme of the event, provided a pleasant setting for the game. The crowning of Laura Lindeman as Homecoming Queen and the dance featuring the group Sun Dog were among the main attractions of the night.

Boys learn to cook The Home Economics classes busied themselves throughout the school year with sewing, cooking full meals, and learning things that will be needed in home life. Boys and girls demonstrated their abilities by baking cookies, cakes and making candy in the early part of the year.

C The 1974-75 version of Norwell cross-country finished a good season with a 61-10 won-lost record, and an unblemished 9-0 log in conference meets. In order for the Knights to win the conference they had to finish in front of vastly improved Woodlan in the A.C.A.C. meet. This was clouded by a leg injury to 1 runner, Kent Gilben, in that very week. It may have been the downfall , as even though the Knights ran well , Woodlan ran better and managed to tie Norwell as co-champs in the conference. In other big meets, Norwell won the Limberlost Invitational and Bi-County runs easily, and finished seventh in the sectional (first among county teams) .
