Polk High School - Cub Yearbook (Polk, NE)

Text from Pages 1 - 84 of the 1966 volume:

CUB-IN Which animals do people most eagerly seek out when visiting circuses, parks or zoos? The cubs, of course. Ask these same people why and you will fet many different answers. However most will agree they wish to see the cubs ecause they are spirited. The cub, by nature, is a curious and high spirited creature-one who has a real zest for living. In selecting the theme for this 1966 yearbook the seniors felt that the most dominate factor of their final year was school spirit. Whatever was attempted and whatever was achieved at Polk High School for the year 1965-1966 was done with spirit. Courage, vigor and enthusiasm-in a word-spirit-characterized such diverse activities as football victories, low hurdle races, music festival performances, geometry assignments, banquets, lunch lines and sneak day frolics. The seniors decided that there was no better way to symbolize the Polk spirit than to use our school mascot- the spirited Polk Cub. The theme for this year's annual is the Cub whose spirited activities be they academic or athletic are the very meaning of the past school year. The class of '66 wishes also to pay tribute to the spirit of the Polk community whose sponsorship makes this yearbook possible and whose support of the school activities all year long has made them especially meaningful. A very special thank you is extended to Mr. Dean Leigh for many of the fine photographs with which he supplied us. His was certainly a spirited contribution. Finally we hope you the reader will catch some of the spirit which was the class of '66. If you do this the '66 Cub will have been a success. Sincerely, Co-Editors — Arlyce Lind Allan Neuhaus Man, since the beginning, has cher- ished the dream for his off-spring to attain greater heights than he. This cherished dream, now a reality, is here for all who wish to take advantage. This Senior Class can and will do this, for they have both desire and ability. I am both happy and proud to have been a part of your educational growth, even for this brief time. The very best to all. William E. Thompson, Principal For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven: a time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up what is planted; a time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up; a time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time todance; What gain has the worker from his toil? I have seen the business that God has given to the sons of men to be busy with. These words from Ecclesiastes describe a school year with its many times, demands, and results. Each of these times has occurred in each area of school: scholastics, athletics, dra- matics, music, any class, or any ac- tivity. Probably one of the most valuable skills any of us can develop is that of knowing the right time at the right time. Best wishes to you, seniors, and other members of Polk schools in all of your times. Walter C. Nielsen, Superintendent - -V 2 FACULTY CUB COUNSELORS MR.

Our first teacher was Miss Hanquist. With the exception of Connie Bolton, who left us at the end of the first year, the members of the Cub den remained the same. Our teacher this year was Mrs. McNaught; Mrs. Hill also substitute taught part of the year. During our second grade year our den was vacated by, Dennis Green, Greg Wilhelms, Evelyn Steward, Judith Ann LaValley. However we gained Beverly Glasser and Connie Bolton. Our teacher was Mrs. Sterner. Dennis Sealey put his fingers in our Honey jar in the third grade. Our teacher this year was Mrs. Doyle Howitt. Leaving our lair were, Harry Johnson, Ronnie Skaden, and Neal VanHousen, but we gained Carol Petty. This year's teacher was Miss Hanquist again. The grizzlies gained one! Louise Morris joined us our fifth grade year. Our teacher was Mrs. Sterner. Eddie Ruzicka and Lynda VanOstrand exchanged porridge bowls, as Eddie left and Lynda came during our sixth grade year. Our teacher this time was Mrs. Shostrom. Goldilocks , Cheryl Johnson, joined us in our seventh grade year, with Mrs. Johnson as our teacher. As we entered Junior High the number of Cub counselors increased, but we neither gained or lost any new members. From den leading Junior High schoolers, the next year, our freshman year, we fell under the influence of the growing grizzly seniors, but we decided to grin and bear it! With shaking paws we welcomed Lois Willis. With our bear tails bristling with buck shot, we borrowed some watermelons for our sophomore sale. The bear budget was credited with one addition--Vicki Bjerrum joined us. As Juniors, distinguished den dwellers all, we decided to bear a larger share of the high school responsibilities. The Junior Class Play, Cowboys and Indians was a howling (growling) success. The Teddy Bears Picnic, our Junior-Senior Banquet, was held In the Misty Moonlight , the banquet's theme. Lair Leaders at Last! Our high school career just bear-ly begun was nearly a closed Cub Chapter. Sweet was the honey of our senior successes. Savoring this nectar were the eighteen graduating seniors of Polk High School Class of 1966. We lost one member, Sharren Cohagen, leaving the final Cub count, Vicki Bjerrum, Mary Doremus, Pat Flodman, Bev Glasser, Donnie Hanquist, Cheryl Johnson, Jean Larkin, Arlyce Lind, Bonnie Litty, Myrna Merchant, Louise Morris, Lynda Myers, Allan Neuhaus, Dennis Sealey, Pat Stufft, Lynn Sundberg, Lynda Van Ostrand, and Lois Willis. 12 CLASS WILL We, the seniors of 66 , in a sound state of mind, reasoning, and memory, do make, publish and declare this our last will and testament. To the faculty: Our wastepaper, muddy foot tracks, wads of gum, candy wrappers, torn magazines, and peace and quiet” until September, 1966. To the Juniors: Our great skill to drive slowly and carefully and our ability to put on good plays. To the Sophomores: Our vigor; intelligence, used test papers, funny jokes and our quiet place in study hall. To the Freshmen: Our down slips, good examples, well used answer books, and our ability to graduate. To various individuals, each and every one bequeaths as follows: I, Lynda Van Ostrand, will my great height to Ray Lindgren, and my government book to Carolyn Kealiher so she will have something exciting to do while riding good ole' no. 3. I, Pat Flodman, will all my old letters to Chris Funk and my ability not to get caught chewing gum and eating candy in study hall to Peg Sealey. 1, Lois Willis, will my ability to stay out of trouble in study hall to Ken Carlstrom and Charlie Shenk, and to Cheryl Sagehorn, my great love for Office Practice and Short- hand. I, Jean Larkin, will my ability to keep quiet in chemistry class to Dan Tyler and my bat attitude to all the Junior boys. 1, Arlyce Lind, will my red socks to Mr. Thompson so he'll have something to wear with his red vest, and my job as Co-Editor of the annual to any Junior who's crazy enough to take it. I, Mary Doremus, will my clarinet to Betty Morris so that she may have one when she loses her own, and my Office Practice papers to whoever wants them. I, Bonnie Litty, will my height to Charles Shenk, and my Chemistry grades to anyone who is nuts—about Chemistry, that is. I, Lynda Myers, will my headaches at music contests to Mrs. Cunningham, and my rides to school in the 38 Chevy to anyone courageous enough to step on the running board. I, Lynn Sundberg, will my ability to get along with Mr. Thompson to Kenny Brazda and my Ford to Steve Saylor so he won't have to walk to school. I, Allan Neuhaus, will my pole vaulting ability to my brother Dob and my 38 Chevy to Bob Lindberg so he's got a good car. I, Louise Morris, will my ability not to write letters in Mrs. C's study hall to Peg, Mary Lou and Jolene. I also will my quiet manners in class to Jolene Myers. I, Don Hanquist, will my rebounding ability to Dudley Baack and I also will my cycle to Steven Adelson so he won't have to ride his bicycle to school. I, Bev Glasser, will my quiet ways and reserved manners to my cuz' Neal Van Housen. He needs them! And my ability to stay awake in Literature to all the Juniors. I, Den Sealey, will my citizenship grades to Steve Saylor so he can make the honor roll and my athletic ability to Gayle Wize. I, Vicki Bjerrum, will my ability to get along with an underclassmen to Dorothy Anderson and my natural blonde hair to Sally Stufft. I, Pat Stufft will my quiet ways and my ability to keep my temper to Margarate Rosno and also my ability to keep the rest of my license points to Neal Van Housen so he'll always be able to get around. I, Myrna Merchant will my late , 41 Chevy to certain Junior Boys, so high speeds can no longer be a temptation and to anyone brave enough to tackle them, I will all my old Spanish dialogues. I, Cheryl Johnson, will my ugly stickers to Mr. Thompson so he'll have something to remember me by and .all my license points to Susan Shaw. j 13 SENIOR CLASS PROPHECY We were strolling around on Sneak Day, and who should we meet but Batman. After talking to him for a while, he invited us to tour his cave. While there, we all gathered around the Batviewer and tuned it in to see what the class of 66 would be doing ten years after graduation. First we saw VICKI BJERRUM wearing a black leather jacket and helmet arriving on her Honda for a NORMal day of teaching. Next was henpecked DENNIS SEALEY. There's his wife BECKoning to him now. Reluctantly Den answers, Aw GEE, do 1 have to come? LOIS WILLIS is married and living on a farm near Hampton. She says all her children were early WOCHers. ARLYCE LIND says that she can't decide whether or not she likes her new job as EDDitor of the POLICEMAN'S Journal . We see that ALLAN NEUHAUS has graduated from pushing grocery carts to baby carts. BONNIE LITTY is seen with her family riding in a Rambler which they pur- chased from EBERHARDT'S in Aurora. BEV GLASSER is now a millionaire. She says she made her millions by capturing the DICKie market. CHERYL JOHNSON was found in Columbus married to a big WHETiL. Cheryl has just purchased a bicycle for the little WHEELERS. We also found PAT STUFFT in Columbus. She now holds a very high position at DALE'S Products. We saw DON HANQUIST in the service of our Country. He has enlisted in the MERCHANT Marines. MYRNA MERCHANT is also in the service of her country. She is working in a PX selling HANkies to the MERCHANT Marines. LYNN SUNDBERG has decided that the North Pole needs a Co-op station. He has established a service station for dog sleds. And LYNDA MYERS has some- how wandered to the North Pole. Much to her surprise she finds SUNDBERGS rather than icebergs. We found LOUISE MORRIS in the test kit- chens of General Mills, working with a new cereal called Little BUDS . MARY DOR EMUS has been quite busy lately, traveling to many new places as a Certified Public Accountant. At last report PAT FLODMAN was seen in the middle of the Sahara Desert. Pat has really turned the tables, she has a haram of 1001 husbands. JEAN LARKIN was seen at Harvard Uni- versity working toward her MRS degree. Just before the Batviewer faded we saw LYNDA VAN OSTRAND in a post office in Hawaii sorting the males. We hope she finds one that's strictly first-class. 14 UNDERGRADS THE JUNIOR CUBS Liz Flodman Vice-President Wayne Heiden Secretary Anne Thompson Treasurer Den Anderson News Reporter Susan Shaw Jim Morris Carolyn Kealiher Russ Wing Cheryl Sagehorn Allen Tonniges Sally Stufft Neal Van Housen 16 LOOK TO “67” Dan Tyler Linda Morris Dick Sea ley Dorothy Anderson Bob Lindburg Marie Carlson Norm Recknor Lois Ostrander Lenny Warnick 17 Margaret Rosno Steve Saylor Dianne Rodine THE PANDA BEARS Bob Cline Helen Doremus Sharon Fossberg Mary Lou Kealiher Sec-Treasurer Glee Killion Nancy Kisler Arnold Merchant Betty Morris Jolene Myers Peggy Sea ley President Charles Shenk Joel Stevens News Reporter Loren Wilshusen Vice-President Randy Wing 18 LOOK OF “68” Bob Brockevelt Ron Brockevelt Ken Carlstrom Chris Funk Dan Graves Tom Hoffman Alfred L'Heureux Connie LaVelle Carol Litty Kay Nielsen Shelly Ramsey Kendall Sandell 19 Tom Stevens Roger Werth Bev Willits THE TEDDY BEARS Jon Saylor President Pat Sealey Vice-President Sidney Widga Sec-Treasurer Cheryl Tonniges News Reporter Charles VanOstrand Teresa Bedient Lauren Glasser Donnette Ostberg Bruce Samuelson Penny Hadley Tony Warnick Susan Hoffman Brad Sundberg Donnette Jones Daryl Fossberg Jolene Haack 20 LOOK TO “69” Ray Lindgren Danny Shaw Steve Adelson Bob Bedient Kenny Brazda Laura Glad Darwin Neuhaus Vicki Ehn Ron Meerkatz Eileen Hanson Steve Carlstrom Barbara Gnauden Rodney L'Heureux Gayle Wize Millie Baack Dudley Baack EIGHTH GRADE BACK ROW; Left to Right, Gary Bjerrum, Terry Van Housen, Jerry LaVelle, Mark Sandell, Mike Lindberg, Mark Wood, Larry Anderson, Brad Samuelson, David Flodman.
