Ads We Dedicate the Sounds of ’74 to Carl Kallhoff The annual staff wish to take this time to sound out our apprec- iation to Carl for his many years of service to our school. We are very fortunate to have Carl to keep our school clean, neat, and warm during the cold winters, so we have a very nice place to study. We take Carl for granted but without his services our school would not run as efficiently. We wish him good luck in the future and the courage and forti- tude to endure the oncoming years.

The class of '74' holds the distinction of being the largest class in the history of P.H.S., and for this reason we have prob- ably left behind more echoes than any of our predecessors. We have left behind the sounds of our spirit, the achievement of our academics, the efforts of our athletics, and the success of our endeavors. As the year draws to a close seniors are able to look back and recall all the wonderful per- sonal experiences that made this our BEST YEAR yet! 10 Sneak Day Mr. and Mrs. Bond were the Sneak Day Sponsors. Look at the monkeys in the zoo! ! Imagine the seniors getting up at 4:30 to leave Petersburg at 5:30 for Omaha. We left Petersburg in a chauffeur driven bus, operated by the Siemsen Service and accompanied by Mr. G Mrs. Bond. Af- ter a pit stop in Madison we ventured out for Fre- mont, where we stopped for breakfast. Then we headed for the Henry Doorley Zoo. After a lot of walking we stopped for dinner at Burger King. The afternoon was spent shopping at Westroads. Then we went out to Peony Park. The boys tested their bas- ketball skills and proved their ability by cleaning the operator out of stuffed animals. We returned home, dead tired after a fun day, at 11:00. Laura and Leo helped clean out the Basketball Stand at Peony Park. They proudly display their stuffed animals. Jean, Diane, Pat and Sally pose on tour train in the Zoo. Larry, Kevin, and Steve enjoy Mr. Siemsen's bus ride. 12 DebTemme- Success, Laura Starman- Education, Vernon Seier- Necessities, Steve Hinkle- Initiative, Pat Salber- Onward to the Future, Diane Knust- Responsibility, Marcia Froistad- Satisfaction.

Time is a great teacher. Today me and tomorrow maybe you. This old anvil laughs at many broken hammers. What is bitter to stand against today may be sweet to remember tomorrow. Whether the stone bumps the jug or the jug bumps the stone it is bad for the jug. We all belong to the same family and have the same smell. Handling honey, tar, or dung some of it sticks to the fingers. The liar comes to believe his own lies. He who burns himself must sit on the blisters. God alone understands fools. The sea has fish for every man. Every blade of grass has its share of dew. The longest day must have its end. Mans life? A candle in the wind, hoar-frost on stone. Nothing more certain than death and Nothing more uncertain than the hour. Men live like birds together in a wood; When the time comes each takes his flight. As wave follows wave, so new men take old men's places. County Government Day Essay Award Helen Majerus First, Jean Foss Third.

Activities, both new and traditional have been an important part of the school life of '74' juniors. They have been involved in activities ranging from, the class play, county government day, to the hustle and bustle of the prom, and some new activities primarily fund raising drives for the spring event. The juniors have added yet another year in their maturing of young men's and women's characters and relationships so that later they will be able to face the trials and tribulations of the complex world. 22 Mark Remmereid Bob Sandman Delbert Seier Kalvin Siebler Cindy Simons Barb Temme John Temme Connie Wirges 23 Junior Prophesies In ten years we see Ken A. working side by side with Sox and Martins pit crew patting clorox on the slicks! ! !

And so the class of '76' remains more to itself, creating their own fun and excitement Sophomores parties are the sights of many memo- ries. But parties aren't their only concern. Seriousness must be given to studies and extra-curricular activities. 25 Nancy Mescher Bob Petche Doris Salber Dave Seier Alice Schmitz Darlene Starman Deanna Starman Nancy Starman Nancy and Nancy get into some sticky trouble. Freshmen Richard Ackerman Fred Arends Jean Arends Dave Brachle Dick Foss Dave Henn Eugene Knust Mike Leifeld Everything is new, different, and strange to the freshman who enter the wonderful world of high school. PHS's crop of frosh is no different and they take on the role of the confused, bewildered, and just plain puzzled. This first year is a time when parents need to be convinced their sons and daughters are old enough to go and do things not considered before. And sometimes the frosh even have to convince themselves that they're old enough. 28 Freshman show their spirit by switching roles in their skit.

The Christmas program was presented with the rest of the school (picture at left). Fingerplay, rhythms, and poems were pre- sented at the Open Classroom program in March. The Little White Rabbit That Wanted Red Wings , was presented at the kindergarten graduation. SOUNDS OF TOGETHERNESS Jody Cheerleaders The PHS Cheerleaders have worked hard during the 1973-1974 school year. The varsity (Jody Henn, Vicki Viek, and Cindy Simons) started out by attending cheerleading camp at Nebraska Wesley- an in Lincoln. They did very well and won two excellent” ribbons, one superior ribbon, and one outstanding ribbon. When they returned, they taught the reserve cheer- leaders and the Pep Club the new cheers and chants they learned. The Varsity and Re- serve Cheerleaders have led our yells and improv- ed our spirit at all of our football and basketball games.

Pep Club Pep Club is a person. A person of various talents, living, moving full of energy, ready to share ideas. A person who wants to be an active part of the school and the commu- nity. Some one with the stamina to be busy. Constantly on the move. A person who leaves a part of herself in everything she does.

Our band has really improved this year over the past three years. It has twenty members. This year they decided on making new band uni- forms. The jackets were made out of Purple knit and white slacks to wear with them. The mem- bers also got band emblems to wear on their sweaters or school jackets. The Band Clinic was held in Petersburg with every school in our Con- ference attending. The band members' mothers served the meals at the clinic. The Band played at the Ribbon Cutting Cermony of Highway 32, at the Christmas Program, Commercial Club supper and on Graduation night. The Pep Band has played at all the football and basketball games this year. Some of their new songs were Lordy, Dixie, I'm Henry the Eighth, Helena Polka and I'm Telling You Now. The Concert Band took Masterpiece. Carly Simon, Marche Romaine, Marching Up Broad- way, Stonehenge, and March National Emblem. They also took some individual solos and small group members. 38 Music 74 This year Miss Henn and the girls and boys glee spent many hours practicing and preparing music for the pro- grams, clinics, and contests in which they attended. They sang for the school Christmas program and for a commer- cial club supper. They also attended the one-day Sand- hills Gateway Music Clinic at Ewing, and the Albion Clinic which lasted two days. Some also attended the music contest at O'Neill. The glee groups, although very busy, had time to sing many modem songs. GIRLS GLEE. L. TOR.

Student Council The Student Council, under the sponsorship of Mr. Siemsen has done a lot of things for the student body. Continuing over from last year, they finished buying clocks for the rooms that needed them and again took care of the student lounge—cleaning it and filling the pop machine. To make the lounge more enjoyable for everyone, the Student Council bought a stereo and set of speakers. Also, along with the teachers, they got the movie ‘'Cat Ballou as their Christmas present to the school. The Student Council feels they have accom- plished greatly towards the betterment of the students and school. FROM L. TOR. Linda Wiegand, Nancy Wirges, Jean Leifeld, Sec.-Treas.

The decorations reflected the Seniors' Motto, I'm not afraid of Tomorrow, I have seen Yester- day, and I love Today. Hanging stars in the foyer represented Tomorrow. The entrance way from this room into the room of Yesterday displayed our theme in blue and pink flowers on a yellow background. Yesterday was portrayed as an old time ta- vern, known as the Wagon-Wheel Saloon. Also pictures of the Seniors' past, toys they played with, awards, and other souvenirs of their child- hood were displayed. Today was decorated in yellow, pink, and blue streamers. The summer house was a main attraction. A birdbath in the center of the floor was surrounded by an array of decorated tables. I A Time for Us This evening began with a Jun- ior-Senior mass at 5:30 in St. John's Church. The Punch Social at 6:15 preceded the Banquet. Steak, baked potatoes, corn, jello salad, relishes, buns, coffee, ice cream, and cake was served. Tablewaiters were Larry Vacha, JohnVeik, Tom Zabka, Alan Temme, Pat Von Bonn, Ruth Majerus, Virg Foss, and Lyn- ette Wiegand. Dave Seier was Bar- tender and Nancy Wirges was Barmaid. Helen Majerus gave the welcome and Vernon Seier gave the response. Jean Leifeld then gave the invoca- tion. After the meal, Nancy Star- man, dressed like a gypsy fortune teller read the prophesies. Vernon Seier read the Senior Wills. The Junior Class hopes that everyone enjoyed the evening and we wish the Senior Class success and happiness in the future.

There's much more to this yearbook than most people realize. It's a congolmer of many thoughts, ideas, expressions, problems, and most important, it's the help of many people. To me this has been a very special year and I hope to you, a very special book. It is a story filled with many private experi- ences and jokes for the staff, and to every one of you I hope this book will remind you of the events of this year. May the SOUNDS of '74 be an echo that never ends! Jean Daly 80
