But yet I know, where'er I go, That there hath passed away a glory from the earth. -Wordsworth I Variety f I Opening Your Morning Sets The Pace As the busses arrive the halls of 0.H.S. begin to echo with sormds of laughter and talking. After the final bell though, quiet reigns and the day's work begins. Students can be found at work in study hall and in their classes. Young biologists are busily learning about plant and animal life. Future typists are trying to remember which key is where. The boys in shop are learning to be Jacks of all Trades, and the future farmers and future homemakers are gaining experience for the years to come. .h'W Students Leaving Bus Ln I 3 vu.- . .

It seems that everyone wants to be the first in line for his lunch. After a hurried lunch most of the students either go downtown or play in the gym. On certain days there are volleyball tournaments between the girls of different classes. If the volleyball nets aren't up, time is spent in playing basketball, ping- pong, or shuffleboard. Young musicians and chorus lrlnembers also do their practicing during the noon our. Traffic Jam Junior Baton Squad Before Practice Cafeteria Line. Opening . . Your Afternoons Drug Slightly After the lunch hour is over, everyone seems to feel that he needs a Siesta. The teachers have a hard timekeeping their students awake in study hall and in class. Our one teacher even insists that all students have transparent eye- lids that they close in order to fool him. How- ever, students find that some activities call for their alert attention. Geometry students are kept on their toes, what with finding the hypotenuse of a triangle or proving equality of angles. Chem- istry students can usually be found for smelledj cooking up another brew in their lab. Really Building . . Opening Geometry . . . But They Do Pass Nonetheless With Class activity waking them up, the stu- dents find that the afternoon is not as long as it first seemed. Advanced typing students find themselves busily mimeographing and typing let- ters. In study hall librarians often are found working on books. And, one period each after- noon is spent working on this edition. Typing II at work l Librarians Working Hcarpentersn Ready to cook. opening . .

If basketball season is over, you can bet that something else is going on. Class plays, carni- vals, and music programs are just a few of the activities sponsored and produced by the students. Of course, the Junior-Senior Prom and Banquet, and the FFA Father and Son Banquet are two annual affairs that are well attended. Indeed, night time is the best time.

Annual Staff wllrl PRIDE WE PRESENTED Showdown at Sawtooth The Junior Class of last year presented a three act mystery, Showdown at Sawtooth. The play took place in the lobby of an old hotel in the desert. A storm filled the hotel with local people and suspicious - looking strangers. Because of plane crack-ups, the hotel owner and caretaker of the airline beacon got more nervous as the evening wore on. When the beacon got smashed the plot really started moving. How the bomber was saved and the connection of the strangers with the attempted sabotage made an exciting play. The cast did very well and ran into only one snag. One scene called for two ofthe boys to push another into a chair. The push was a little too hard and the cast nearly broke up with laughter when boy and chair tumbled to the floor.

It was the first county tournament won by Orangeville in seven years. Orangeville walloped Pearl City the first night and rolled over Winslow the second round to gain the finals a- gainst Lena, who had upset Dakota the first night and beat Durand the second night. This set the stage for the champ- ionship game. The Lena Lions kept up with the Broncos the first half, but couldn't outlast the Bronco height and speed in the last half.

Another One For Toni . . Basketball Broncos Race to Conference Championship The Broncos of Orangeville High ended their '55-'56 sea- son with the finest record ever established in the history of the school. The Broncos ended with a remarkable 26-2 slate. With a schedule of conference and nonconfercnce games that totaled seventeen, the Broncos won the conference title with a perfect record of ten wins and no losses. The team clinched the title against their toughest opponent in the conference, Dakota, on February 3. The game, which was at Dakota, was a tough one as expected. Dakota, our biggest rival for the past few years, was up for the big game since Orangeville handed them their only loss in the conference earlier in the season. The Broncos won the thrilling contest 83-73. This being only the second full season for Coach Staas at the helm of the Broncos, he established himself as one of the best small school coaches in the state. After having a winning season in '54-'55, Coach Staas, with four returning lettermen Qthree of them first stringers last yearj, has produced a marvelous re- cord this season. Coach Dick Staas is a former star athlete from Freeport High and Dekalb State Teachers College, and has brought his ability andknowledge to Orangeville High inhopes of establishing a fine sports record here. Congratulations Coach Staas for a job well done!

PONIES COUNTY CONFERENCE CHAMPS This year Orangevilleys Ponies defeated all their rivals in regular conference play to cop the County Conference Championship. In seventeen starts they lost only three games. Two of these were taken by a tough and tall Aquin squad who lost only one game this year. Unluekily Coach Cole's team lost to a spirited Durand team in the first round of Stephen- son County Tournament Champs. Left-hander Ron Blankenhorn with his specialty, the set shot, led scoring with 198 points, Next was the team's tall man, agile center Larry Busser with 180. Of course, the rest of the boys played fine ball and really pulled some their games out ofthe fire with their snappy ball-handling and precision teamwork. Behind a good team there is always someone who works hard. He gives up his time to train and teach a bunch of boys so that they soon work as a well trained unit with a set of reserves that are always ready to do their best. Here's a special salute to that man behind the team, Coach Cole!

Struggle for what, you ask? Our constant struggle to become seniors. What a wonderful feeling to have accomplished our second step in life. Our first being graduation from eighth grade and now gradu- ation from high school. For some of us college and for others vocations will be the third step. Our class, now consisting of thirty-nine, has been very active in sports, clubs, and music. We worked very hard as juniors to present a successful class play, Showdown at Sawtooth , and a lovely banquet and prom. As raging seniors we won the magazine drive. We are working very hard to make this year's Orano the very best. We have developed a very fine basketball team which consists of the following boys: Richard Stabenow, Bill Blankenhorn, LaVerne Barker, Eugene Gross, and Bob Davidson. We wish to extend our appreciation and thanks to the teachers who helped us so very much, and to Mr. Keuler for helping us with the Orano and for being our class sponsor.
