Houstonites Engrave Colorful Year Hectic registration days began the 1968-69 school year. Campus life became a colorful whirl of pep rallies, assemblies and plays. Spirit Week unfurled a variety of contests. Varsity basketball and football squads claimed bi-district titles. Goals were set for the April evaluation of SH for the Southern Association of Secondary Schools. After Thanksgiving, Cherokees made plans for Christmas, including a collection of food and clothing for the needy. Valentine’s Day, SC Variety Show and the ROTC Military Ball were activities of early spring. In April came the band concert. SH’ers vied for awards in UIL sports, literary events and music contests. The library decor and the musical Kale- idoscope reflected the colorful theme of the April 19 Junior-Senior Prom. The All-Sports Banquet and Awards Assembly honored students for outstanding services. Both the Latin Club Chariot Race and the FTA banquet were held in May. Clubs held elections of officers. Cheerleaders for the coming year were announced at the Gren and White Banquet. Baccalaureate services preceded graduation on May 29. Graduates faced a new chapter in their lives with mixed feelings of joy and anticipation. Of Contests, Dances, Plays, Rallies 5 Pep rallies, football games, assemblies helped to prove That SHer’s were back in the established groove. Students were active as clubs began to convene? Fund-raising projects consumed much time? Hucksters’ cries resounded like a chime. Mid-term exams, research papers finished, Notes, library trips, worries dimished. Highlighting the year was entertainment galore, Banquet halls, ballrooms, parks provided more. Closing our activities with the arrival of May, At SH we could no longer stay . . . With these qualities we filled our year, Moments of happiness, ambition and cheer. We were equipped with a potpourri of memories so mel- low . . . Color them a soft, quiet yellow.

Her tranquil solitude is soon broken by the chaos which accompanies nearing deadlines for the annual. 17 Advancement for all in the educational field Was the goal our faculty wanted to wield. To challenge our minds and keep them at their peaks, Teachers applied knowledge and different techniques. Science, math, history, language and business classes Were courses offered at SH that baffled both lads and lasses. When teachers were kept busy by tests and lessons to be planned, The administration was always present to lend a helping hand. Guidance and counseling by qualified personnel Kept the main office buzzing for quite a spell. Another vital section to the official crew Were secretaries, bookkeepers, to name just a few. Workers of the cafeteria, maintenance line Provided us with service mighty fine. PTA served to strengthen the school and foundation, For parents, teachers to unite and form a consolidation These are the people who gave so much time, Helping and listening to our problems of utmost prime. People who gave every memory its distinctive hue, This dedicated faculty, color it true blue. Board Members Make Plans for SAISD; Dr. Harold H. Hitt, new superintendent of the San Antonio Independent School District, was introduced to teachers last year at a Teachers’ Council banquet, honoring Mr. Oscar Miller, retiring SAISD superintendent. Dr. Hitt had been superintendent of the Midland Independent School District for 13 years. Out of 39 applicants, the seven- member Board of Education chose Dr. Hitt. Trustees are elected at large for six-year terms by qualified voters of the school district on a non-partisan ballot. Elections are held the first Saturday in April of even numbered years. Members of the board transact busi- ness of the district at public meetings held twice monthly. A recent project voted by the board was air-conditioning for various schools. Authorization to launch an extensive building program was given by SAISD trustees to Superin- tendent Hitt on December 12. On the planning board are several new schools to be built within the next few years. Various other schools are slated to be air-conditioned with others to get additions and shops. LEFT: Mr. Raymond W. Arnold, deputy superintendent, looks over the reorganization plans for San Antonio schools with Dr. Hitt. At mid-semester the SAISD was divided into three areas.

Mr. Horton signs an OK to a student’s change in his schedule card. 22 Provide Guidance Toward Future Goals Mr. Robert K. Shafer, principal of Sam Houston High School, was always ready to lend a helping hand. Mr. Shafer, who has been a teacher since 1928, has had ex- perience in every grade level. Mr. Shafer received a B.A. degree in industrial arts and an M.A. degree in education from Southwest Texas State College. He belonged to several clubs, among which were the Highland Park Lions Club, the National Educators' Association, Texas Teachers’ As- sociation, San Antonio Administrators’ and Supervisors’ Asso- ciation. Mr. Shafer enjoys gardening, fishing and boating in his leisure time. Mr. Burlen Horton, vice principal and dean of boys, shared with Mr. Shafer the responsibility of administering the school. Mr. Horton received B.S. and M.A. degrees from Southwest Texas College. Though supervising classes and guiding boys consumed most of his time, Mr. Horton could always be depended upon to attend Sam Houston’s extra- curricular activities. In his spare time Mr. Horton enjoys fishing and hunting. Mrs. Siebrecht checks grade requirements for eligibility in school clubs. Mrs. Janie Siebrecht, dean of girls, took a personal interest in students problems. She checked qualifications for club membership and helped formulate school policies. She graduated from St. Mary’s University with B.A. and M.A. degrees. Mrs. Siebrecht is a member of the American Association of American Women and Delta Kappa Gamma. In her leisure time she enjoys flower gardening, sewing, reading and playing canasta. Though transferring records to computers took up much of her time. Miss Roberta Ackermann counseled stu- dents in many facets of their lives. Conducting tests, planning high school programs and preparing students for college entrance were among her duties. Miss Ackermann attended Trinity University, where she received B.A. and M.A. degrees. She likes to hunt and fish. Having checked the list of seniors eligible for graduation, Miss Ackermann now faces the task of administering scholastic achievement tests to college-bound students. 23 Personnel Provide Notable Services? Mrs. Brunnemann checks a list of supplies for class use. Among familiar sounds in SH offices was the tapping noise of the typewriter. Mrs. Opal Beyer, secretary to Mr. Shafer, was replaced at mid-semester by Mrs. Inez Brun- nemann. Secretarial duties included typing requisitions, informing teachers of budget balances, issuing supplies and equipment, distributing mail and keeping a record of faculty absences. Mrs. Myra Lee Krafft, registrar, kept up-to-date records of grades and test scores for each student. Mrs. Krafft was also responsible for mailing transcripts for college-bound students. A new addition to the staff was Mrs. Martha Lynn Kumpf, who kept financial records. Selling parking permits and placing orders for senior rings and graduation invita- tions were also among her jobs. She kept records of draft- ing and shop materials and typed the daily bulletin. Mrs. Mary Roberts, attendance teacher, wrote absentee and tardy slips and prepared the daily absentee list. She also issued bus cards to eligible students and supervised the completion of federal cards. Mrs. Patricia Cornell, book clerk, issued textbooks and sold tickets for football and basketball games. She also worked in the school library. Mrs. Harriet Masterson, school nurse, kept student medical records and helped with physical examinations. She staffed the clinic and gave advice and aid. Upon request of an employment agency, Mrs. Krafft supplies reference information for a student. 24 Mrs. Beyer carefully examines the list of available substitute teachers. Bookkeeper, Nurse Benefit Students Before balancing books, Mrs. Kumpf checks and rechecks the ledger for possible posting errors. Mrs. Cornell issues locks and combinations and sells game tickets to SH students. As a daily routine Mrs. Roberts prepares the list of students absent from classes. 25 English Teachers Present Lectures; Gold was tne color used for English students who looked to literature and grammar for a brighter tomorrow. Classes were divided into three categories: accelerated, regular and modified. Research papers, book reports, essay contests and scrapbooks on English culture helped to enlarge the spectrum of knowledge imparted by the staff. Senior Eng- lish students lectured to underclassmen on library science. Others tried their hand at composing ballads, riddles, short stories and poems. Sam Houston’s extensively stocked library provided sufficient sources for oral and written reports, panel dis- cussions or just pleasure reading. Students gained a broader literary scope from such magazines as Literary Cavalcade, Reader’s Digest and Scope. Studies of phonetics and American dialects were added to the curriculum while teachers utilized linguistic films. Mr. Vernon Lanctot served as English coordinator, while Mrs. Lillie Nelson headed the evaluation subcommittee. Mrs. Patricia Soupiset lectures on the Scarlet Letter, a required reading for English III students. Mrs. Janet Clover took over Mrs. Soupiset’s English II and III classes at mid-term.

German, Latin and Spanish were offered in both introductory and advanced courses, while French was added as an additional interest. In advanced courses of each language, cultural ideas and traditions were studied. Oral and written work helped to improve pronunciation and to correct grammatical errors. Spanish novels and newspapers were read by second and third year Spanish students, while German students studied the geography of Germany. French students read pamphlets from France. Latin students studied customs of the Roman Empire and made translations of the Gallic Wars. Unusual projects made foreign languages more interesting for students. Teachers used charts, films, magazines and overhead projectors. Students fixed the sounds and accents of the language in their minds by listening to pre-recorded tapes and records in the language lab. Interested students com- peted in various contests throughout the city. Awards were given to exceptional participants.

Commercial courses included bookkeeping, cleri- cal practice, shorthand and typing. A new course in busi- ness machines was offered to provide students with practice for the business world. Clerical practice students learned to use calculators, adding machines, electric typewriters, mimeograph and ditto machines, dictaphones and the key punch. Drills and records were used in shorthand to improve the rate of transcription time, while bookkeeping classes learned filing techniques. Exceptional students were chosen from their respective classes to represent Sam Houston in District 29 AAAA competition in Interscholastic League contests. Enthusiastic business students joined the Better Business Leaders, a club which served as a stepping stone toward professional careers. MRS. ROSE LIND LEY Typing I and II Clerical Practice Mrs. Shirley Adamek, shorthand and clerical practice teacher, starts the tape recorder for a transcription. MR.

GORDON PEASE Recordkeeping, Business Arithme- tic, Tennis Coach 29 Library Provides Studious Atmosphere Green were the faces of the sophomores, new to the voca- tional program offered at Sam Houston. Although confused at first, they learned to appreciate the opportunities afforded them. Distributive Education, in its second year at SH, had given students the opportunity to seek part-time employment while attending classes on a half-day basis. Classes studied a variety of subjects in business, law enforcement and personal appearance. Under this program, students were better prepared to enter the business world. Drafting students constructed mechanical drawings with the use of various types of equipment, such as the T square for drawing vertical lines and the French curve for curved lines. Drafting courses prepared students for later courses in archi- tectural drawing or building mechanics. Courses in home and family living were offered by the homemaking department. Fundamentals in sewing and cooking were taught to first year homemaking classes, while the second and third year classes went on to morecomplicated projects. Jeanette Kolodziejyk gets advice from Mrs. Lillian McCoy, homemaking teacher, on the simple technique of pinning in a hem. 30 MR. DARVIL MIDDLETON Drafting MRS.

Art and drama students exhibited color in paintings and plays, while band and choral classes worked on colorful music selections. Art students displayed originality and imagination in paintings, posters and sculptures. These students entered contests to learn to compete with others. Learning a new communication skill demanded con- centration on the part of drama students. They found excitement in the new world of the stage with its bright lights and glittering costumes. Many speech students joined in competition at the UIL District Meet. Band members showed their skill in concerts, half- time shows and competitive contests. On November 20 members participated in the UIL Marching Contest and scored a first place award. Under the direction of Mr. Charles Keller, the a cappella choir provided good music throughout the year at assemblies. Choir members competed in nume- rous contests and also gave concerts. Mr. Stanley Psencik, band director, and Ross Harris dis' cuss plans for the UIL contest. While practicing scales, Mr. Charles Keller, choir director, shows Karen Claridge correct positioning of the mouth.

Miss Nancy Saffold, art teacher, adds a few suggestions as Lisa Ander- son works on a project. Mrs. Jane Scates, Drama and English I teacher, lectures on public speaking. 33 PE Teachers Supervise Activities Physical education members kept fit by following daily exercise routines and by participating in a variety of sports, such as baseball, basketball, football and soccer. Students learned the qualities of leadership and fair play. Aids to the physical education program were the new vibrating ex- erciser and the tumbling horse. Phase I of the driver education program was offered with no tuition charged. Students learned basic mechanics of driving and proper use of the automobile. They were also taught to identify traffic signs and to analyze driving situations. After completing the course, a student could take a driver’s test and receive his beginner’s license. Health classes studied the functions and locations of the organs of the body. Accepted standards of social be- havior and etiquette were also taught. MR.

Members worked to improve their appearance so as to maintain the high standards of the ROTC code of ethics. Discipline, leadership and military courtesy were taught to first year cadets. Many second and third year cadets became officers with the job of instructing first year members. Sergeant Major Eldridge Bayer and Sergeant Edward- Minar, instructors, used strict military methods to train cadets. Students chose either drill team or rifle team par- ticipation. Drill team members competed with other schools, while rifle team cadets were taught the proper use of the M-l rifle. In December the drill team traveled to Kingsville for a rifle and drill team meet. Recognition was given for out- standing teamwork. The annual formal inspection by Army officers was held in March, Extensive planning began later in preparation for the All-City Drill Team competitive meet in May at Alamo Stadium with awards going to the best drill teams and the best-drilled cadets. SMAJ Bayer inspects James Jenkins as Juan Pena awaits his turn. Sergeant Minar and Charles Lawson explain correct position of the rifle to Edward Cervantes, Jerry Collett, Conrad Drum and Charles Davis. 35 History Profs Stress Constitution, Panel discussions on such subjects as automation, the social revolution and drug addiction were only some of many activities of government classes. Social studies courses also included world, Texas and American history and economics. World history class projects included miniature manors, sketches of medieval life and replicas of plantation life. Maps, globes and periodicals aided teachers in their presentation of ideas and instigation of thoughts as to the actual manner in which history was created. Students kept informed through the use of the week- ly newspaper, which also featured a cross-word puzzle. Films gave students a closer insight into the way specific events took place. Debates and mock trials aided in the learning of court proceedings. Classes also gave reports on famous men and their contributions. Mrs. Ann Duvall, world history teacher, reviews her class lesson plans. Mr. James Deery, who teaches government, American history and Texas history, shows Sandi Lievens and Susie Clew the location of amendments to the U.S. Constitution in a discussion of the stages of development through which our government has passed.

Pink was often the color used to describe math students’ eyes as they strained to see an exponent which had been written too small, or as they unexpectedly found a lost compass. Mathematics played an important part in the lives of SHers, whether they planned to become engineers, phy- sicists, nurses or housewives. Sam Houston offered related math, algebra, geometry, trigonometry, elementary analysis and computer math, which provided college-bound students with the necessary background. Latest teaching equipment aided students in grasping the sometimes puzzling mathematical theorems. Graphs, dia- grams and charts were used in explaining various problems. Unusual devices, such as croquet balls and identity theorems in trig, flow charts in computer math, cubes and cones in geometry and fractional equations in algebra were combined with standard tools for the study of various aspects of math. Mr. David Spencer, geometry and algebra teacher, explains to his class the method of proving triangles congruent. Caryn Brown listens attentively as Mr. Craig, Related Math II teacher and golf coach, explains a different reasoning technique for working a problem. 38 Answers Fail to Come Easy for All Miss Diane Frederick, Algebra I and II teacher and FTA sponsor, illustrates an equation for finding the square root of a number.

Future Scientists Green was the color of some Sam Houstonites’ faces as they entered a biology class and caught the strange essence of formaldehyde for the first time. Biology students made their own hemotologies and family trees covering as many as seven generations. A visit to the city zoo was correlated with the students’ study of biology. Chemistry students performed lab ex- periments and learned to use the slide rule, while physics students studied proven theories by famous scientists. Basic principles and science vocabulary were integral parts of biology, chemistry and physics. In general, zoology and botany made the recipe for biology, while stink bombs and smoke screens filled the bill for chemistry. With spring came the All-District Science Fair and the University Interscholastic League contests. Sam Houston’s extensive science department boasted four resident ‘‘sci- entists’’ dedicated to furthering students’ knowledge and appreciation of nature.

PTA Gives Support, Helps Community; Promoting profitable projects and working for closer parent-student relationships, the Parent-Teacher Association was always ready to help SH students. Two high ranking seniors were presented scholarships by the PTA at commencement exercises. In order to raise money for this, and other projects, PTA members sponsored the annual Mexican Supper and Open House during Public School Week. Featured were class visitations and a money tree in each advisory. Additional projects included the Senior Class picnic and the purchase of shrubs and trees for the SH campus. In November Mrs. Melvin Yow was appointed as a delegate to attend the annual state PTA convention in Houston, which featured the election of state officers, workshops and lectures. On the teachers’ work day” in May, the association served lunch to the faculty. On Founders’ Day in February, 11 members attended a luncheon at La Villita in honor of PTA founders. Mrs. C. A. Pingenot speaks to members asking for their support of a candy sale to help a needy family in the com- munity.

Honor students excelled in scholarship, leadership, loyalty, dedication, industry and skill. Service, responsibility and determination were other qualities which contributed to these students’ achievements. Honors for SHer’s stemmed from various sources, national as well as local. Academic honors are recognized in this section, which is also dedicated to essay and contest winners. Other students were chosen by the faculty on the basis of classroom skill. Organizations, such as the DAR, American Legion and General Mills, recognized outstanding teenagers. Numerous scholarship programs, like the Otto Koehler and George T. Brackenridge Foundations, the Bexar County Scholarship and National Merit Scholarship Corporation, acknowledge com- mendable work. These students were pacesetters at Sam Houston. Proving that honor is much more meaningful than prestige, these distinguished SHer’s helped to promote a dignified and worthy image of today’s generation to a wary society familiar with the activities of hippies and demonstrators.

Teacher Proudly Accepts Spirit Award Sam Houston’s Student Council, a large and active service organization, met twice a week in order to coordinate activities and ideas of students and faculty. One member or an alternate from each advisory attended meetings. Club and class officers were also invited in order to keep others informed of activities. During October the SH council affiliated with the Texas Association of Student Councils, ordered Student Council pins and chartered a student bus to the Killeen football game. Mimeographed yell sheets were passed out for stu- dents unfamiliar with SH yells. In November a door decoration contest was sponsored for the South San game. Mike Budnik, Gregory Myers and Dale Bush, the most spirited dressed boys, and Nancy Reyna, the most spirited dressed girl, were awarded prizes for their costumes. Hobo Day was held on December 7 for the annual fund- raising drive. Gift baskets and socks full of money were collected from advisories for needy families.

Under the guidance of Mrs. Roberta Mahan, staffers published 16 six-page editions of the bi-monthly newspaper. Larger editions were published at Christmas, Easter and grad- uation. The Raven” included news stories, features, edi- torials, sports highlights and student opinion articles. Staffers were seldom idle, for they had the perpetual tasks of delivering newspapers to students, collecting for ads from merchants and meeting the seemingly unending dead- lines. To prepare for Interscholastic League Press Conference competition, editors journeyed to Austin in November and then participated in the District Meet in April with events in newswriting, features, editorials, headlining and copy- reading. The “Raven” received an All-Texas rating from the THSPA and the Award of Honor from the ILPC. Business managers, Beth and Louise Mitchell, credit ad payments, collected by Thomas Anderson, into the ledger. 105 'Raven’ Arouses Student Interests New staffer, Sharon Kosub, proudly points out her first printed story to Bill Jerman, who has been on the staff four years.

Carolyn Arnold Rodney Woods Advertising managers, Sandy Semlinger and Norma DeHoyos, check to see that all ads scheduled for the fourth issue are correctly placed and sized. Debbie Kinzel and Walter Rauschuber eagerly wait to give reporter, Cheryl Lewis, their opinions on school spirit. Several student quote articles were in- cluded in each issue of the paper. 107 Photographers Try for Clear Pictures What a great shot!” Overhearing this statement, one might think that the speaker referred to an excellent golfer who had just rolled his ball onto the green about six inches from the cup or perhaps to an expert rifleman who had hit the bull’s eye from a great distance. To the contrary, this statement was overheard in the journalism room in praise of a breath-takijig football picture snapped by anSH photog- rapher. Soliciting ads was another important duty of production staffers, who also collected payments and delivered re- ceipts. These boys assisted Mrs. Mahan, journalism sponsor, by running errands, such as taking Raven” copy to the printshop, delivering annuals to other schools and picking up pictures. buring December, six production staffers attended the THSPA convention in Denton, Texas, to compete for awards in photography and to attend workshops. Before the Christmas holidays, journalism students at- tended an informal Christmas party at MacArthur Park. Announcement of next year’s newspaper and yearbook editors and presentation of awards to outstanding staffers high- lighted the May banquet.

An international honor society for high school journal- ists, the organization included Raven” and “Cherokee” staffers who had done superior work in some field of journal- ism. Members were required to maintain a satisfactory academic average and to have two years of staff experience. Group activities offered opportunities for creative writing, initiative and individual achievement. Newly elected Quill and Scroll members were given a choice of ordering pins or charms with their staff positions inscribed. They were recognized at the Awards Assembly when they received membership cards. As members of this organization, they were eligible to receive the Quill and Scroll magazine. Attaining perfection in the production of the newspaper and yearbook was the goal of Quill and Scroll members. The THSPA Convention in Denton in December served as a stimulant for achieving ths goal. The Trinity one-day work- shop gave an over-all review in all phases of journalism for Photographers and newspaper and yearbook staffers. Raven” editors journeyed to Austin to discuss techniques for use in competition. Then in March they participated in the Interscholastic League District Meet. Bonnie Ayers Kathy Brunnemann Esther Chabisek Norma DeHoyos Darnell Eckhardt Mary Hays Pat Heinemeyer Billy Jerman Gail Koehler Karen Koltermann Kan Kotara Martha Kret Barbara Morrison, Cherokee staffer, and Nancy Mantooth, Raven staffer, share the honor of receiving Quill and Scroll invitations. 110 Spurs Members to Achieve Perfection Mary Jane Latka Diane Leissner Nancy Mantooth Cathy Metting Barbara Morrison Cynthia Muenz Barbara Reaves Martha Robbins Denise Schmidt Miki Shaw Shirley Skrzycki Nadene Thurmond Nancy Weaver Curtis Wolfe Sonny Yow Cherokee Rodeo Club Creates Thrills Rodeo Club members ‘‘kicked off” the year with a bucking start. Mrs. Adrienne Crank served as club sponsor. New members were accepted into the club and given the opportunity to purchase club jackets. Thrills and excitement came to western fans with the celebration in February of the San Antonio Live Stock Show and Rodeo. Many members of the Rodeo Club participated in trailrides and the parade that opened the event. After miles of riding, kickers complained of soreness, blisters and weather beaten faces, but most agreed that it was fun. Kickers began making early plans for a trailride of their own. Rodeo clubs from various schools were invited. McCollum and MacArthur riders participated. The ride began early on March 1 and ended that evening in St. Hedwig. With many members of the Rodeo Club entering the annual Sheriffs Mounted Posse Youth Rodeo, SH took first once again.

BBL Members Work Business Machines Under the sponsorship of Mrs. Ix is Moore, Better Busi- ness Leaders operated a supply store. The stock consisted of typing paper, shorthand notebooks, pens, pencils, index cards, carbon paper and poster boards. These articles en- abled students to remain well-supplied throughout the year. As another fund-raising project, BBL members sold gold and silver graduation pins. During the year members learned how to operate dif- ferent types of business machines. Several members of the club helped to demonstrate how the machines worked. Many enrolled in the six commercial courses offered at SH. Guest speaker at a club meeting was Mr. Ginther, who discussed good office habits and proper dress for work. Senior girls in the club toured the USAA building. Other seniors were interviewed by a representative of Bell Tele- phone Company. Rosemary Hernandez looks over the BBL graduation pins as Linda Long records her order.

It was earned at the 1968 SAISD Annual Drill Competition, in which the SH drill team placed first. ROTC officers and cadets strived to attain this high rating in their competition again this year. Combining academics with physical activity, cadets drilled regularly and learned procedures of military opera- tions. The organization instilled in its members personal honor, rigid discipline, patriotism, habits of orderliness and respect for authority. The ROTC employed four companies, a drill team, led by Sergeant Major Eldridge Bayer and an ROTC Band, directed by Mr. Stan Psencik. The traditional turkey shoot in No- vember helped to defray the cost of the Military Ball held at the Convention Center on April 4. A candy machine in the Armory enabled students to have a variety of confections and also helped to pay for the ball. The drill team competed in a meet at Kingsville in December and in an All-City Competition in May at Alamo Stadium, where awards were given for the best drill team in the city. Formal inspection of ROTC Corps by U.S. Army officials took place on April 12th. All ROTC units, the ROTC Band and the Cheroketts participated in Field Day activities in May.

Highpoint of the Cherokee football season was winning the bi-district crown and defeating the Highlands Owls to win the right to advance to regional play. Though the Wheatley Lions defeated SH in this game, it was the first time the Cherokees had advanced so far in state playoffs. Cherokees fell short in non-district games; however, they made a strong comeback throughout the season and won all district games by sizeable margins. Much of the pro- gressive display of power is accredited to the defensive unit, which like the offence, seemed to improve with each gridiron clash.

FCA Promotes Other Huddle Groups The first San Antonio chapter of the Fellowship of Christian Athletes was organized at Sam Houston in late spring of 1968. The team that plays together should pray together.” With this as their motto, FCA members made their goal the promotion of huddle groups in other schools. Monthly meetings were held alternately at night and during the noon hour. Members heard guest speakers from churches of different denominations and several college coaches. They also watched sports-related films, such as highlights of the Dallas Cowboys’ games. On January 23 The Reverend Charles Kemble, pastor at Parkview Baptist Church, captain Danny Baird and captain- elect Sonny Yow appeared on TV on Mary Denman’s Our Town” to urge interested persons to attend the city-wide Fellowship of Christian Athletes’ crusade on January 25.

Both boys and girls in this two year course participated in various sports: badminton, basketball, soft- ball, soccer, volleyball and baseball. Equipment, such as the parallel bars, balance beam, gym horse, tumbling mats and foam rubber pillows, aided stu- dents in gymnastics. Classes were required to take fitness tests in the spring and in the fall to determine students’ rate of improvement. Instructors gave tests on such skills as pull-ups, sit-ups, broadjumping, running and baseball throwing. Instructors used films and demonstrations to teach the important functions of the body. Classes collected clippings on various subjects, such as drug addiction, alcoholism, personal hygiene and birth defects. Charles Martin performs a shoulder stand on the parallel bars under Mr. Glen Crocker’s supervision. A feat such as this is possible after hours of practice.

Guidance from the administration and faculty led seniors through their most challenging year. Class sponsors, Mrs. Roberta Mahan and Mr. David Spencer, cued students in their senior role. Taking cap and gown pictures on November 5 and 6 boosted senior spirit. College bound students were offered entrance examinations, such as the College Board Test, American College Test and Preliminary Scholastic Aptitude Test. Since 1968 was an election year, each senior cheered the candidate of his choice. Christmas time found seniors gazing into the skies for a glimpse of Apollo 9, which carried three men in its flight around the moon. Soon after mid-term exams, seniors ordered graduation invitations. Annual group pictures, as well as cap and gown measurements, were on their busy schedule. The final semester found seniors struggling with themes and projects in trigonometry, physics, English IV, government and health. A four-day Easter holiday, which was new for SHers, provided an opportunity to sponsor an Easter egg hunt at MacArthur Park for children from St. Peter-St. Joseph Orphanage. Everything’s Coming Up Color was the theme of the Junior-Senior Prom, April 19; music was provided by Wink Kelso and the Kaleidoscope. Finally, on May 26, after the completion of finals, the annual senior picnic at Olmos Park provided the last social event of the year. The tradi- tional Senior Class gift to the school was a portable public address system. Seniors donned caps and gowns on May 29 at the Municipal Auditorium to bring their high school careers to a formal close. Prepared to accept the responsibilities and challenges of their new lives, seniors hopefully stepped forth into a promising future.

Under the direction of Miss La- Schelle Thompson and Mrs. Diana Danford, juniors prepared for their future role as leaders of the Cherokee Reservation. Juniors demonstrated scholastic excellence when select members of the class were initiated into the National Honor Society and Quill and Scroll, while others became lettermen and club officers. All Juniors were required to take the Preliminary Scholas- tic Aptitude Tests on October 22 with the National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test offered in the spring to college- bound juniors. Academic courses taken by most juniors included English, American history, algebra, chemistry and a foreign language. Among electives chosen were general drafting, home economics, journalism, typing, music, shorthand and art. English classes studied “Moby Dick,” “The Scarlet Letter,” The House of the Seven Gables” and collections of short stories. Texas Across the River” was presented December 22 as a money-making project to finance the Junior-Senior Prom. At this gala April 19 event keyed to the theme, “Everything Comes Up Color,” students danced to the music of Wink Kelso and the Kaleidoscope. Juniors of 1969 were indeed an active industrious group who could look back with pride upon these achievements. 196 Assume Responsibilities With Vigor Airheart, Jay Alcorte, Janie Allen, Donna Alexander, Wilfred Amescua, Ronnie Anderson, Thomas Anglin, Christy Araiza, Joseph Arnold, Carolyn Arnold, Hvie Ayotte, Mary Barnes, Georgia Barnes, Joycelyn Barrow, Nanci Baumann, Gary Beabout, David Bell, Larry Berry, Melvin Biesenbach, Elouise Biesenbach, Sharon 197 Research Papers Offer New Interests; Blum, Bonnie Bradshaw, James Breda, James Brooks, Karl Brown, Darlene Buckley, Bobby Bulmer, Bill Byrd, Kitty Carey, Thad Carnahan, Cheryl Carrington, Charles Castillo, Robert Chaffin, Nancy Chesire, Theresa Claridge, Karen Clew, Susie Coleman, Janie Coley, Janet Colton, Toni Compton, Pamela 198 'Will I Ever Finish,’ Sighs Student Covington, Rudy Craig, Kathy Craton, Patricia Crockett, Beverly Cunningham, Shirley Daniels, Jacquelyn Davis, Linda Dear, Wayne De La Garza, Sally Deptawa, Janice When will they open these library doors?

Esther Nasis, president; Alfred Quijano, vice-president; Joe Srubar, sergeant-at-arms; Virginia Morris, treasurer display enthusiasm for school activities. BELOW: Janet Bell, secretary, and Kathy Ackermann, parliamentarian, scan a soph textbook. As sophomores entered a new phase in high school, they encountered many experiences. Clubs, pep rallies and assemblies were new interests. Many sophomores strived to reach a high scholastic average. Houstonites ventured into English II, where they studied ‘‘Silas Marner” and ‘‘Julius Caesar;” biology, where they learned methods of dissection; geometry, where theo- rems and assumptions were practiced; and world history, where past and present happenings were discussed. To aid in choosing academic fields, sophomores took the NEDT test in the spring. Few sophs failed to join one of SH’s spirit groups, the band, Sammies, junior athletics or ROTC, Guided by Mrs. Ann Duvall, the class sponsored a movie on May 29 to provide funds for next year’s Junior- Senior Prom. 214 Sophs Show Spirit for Future Year Abbott, Melvin Acketmann, Cathy Acord, Elizabeth Allen, Odie Alvarado, Edna Alvarado, Freida Amescua, Richard Anderson, Garry Anderson, Judith Aparicio, Carmen Apps, James Armstrong, Patsy Arnold, Bobbie Arnold, Cindy Ayers, James Bader, Caroline Baldovino, Joan Barthold, Deborah Baumann, Verlaine Beck, Ladeen 215 Study Hall Proves Useful to SHers Beckman, Stewart Bednarz, Michael Bell, Janet Bellelo, Jo Ann Jim Hernandez agrees that study hall is a good time to review.

Each student had moments of happiness, excitement and fear, During this controversial and politically dominated year. As winter gave way to spring, fleeting days were lengthened; Desires to advance to the next stage were strengthened. Banquets, proms were given as part of tradition, In the cafeteria and library, with decorations as an addition. Final exams completed, we were off the hook; Now it was time to turn in each book. Warbonnets went off to the school we held so dear, Which provided SHer’s with such a colorful year. These activities, typical of the classes of '69, In our hearts, established sentimental ties, forever fine. For those wonderful school days, we shall frequently pine. With the sound of the 3:30 bell on May 29, color it the end Of the line. 1968-69 'Cherokee’ Staff Co-Editors MARY HAYS BARBARA REAVES Activities DEBBIE KLAUS SANDY LIEVENS Faculty DARNELL ECKHARDT - Editor SUSAN CLEW PAT HEINE MEYER DEBBIE SEXTON Sports DENISE SCHMIDT - Editor SHIRLEY SKRZYCKI - Editor SANDY STAPLES Senior Class KAREN KOLTERMANN - Editor KATHY BRUNNEMANN CAROL JONES BARBARA RISTOW JUDY ZUNKER Junior Class MARTHA KRET - Editor BARBARA MORRISON - Editor SUSAN SNYDER DEBORAH TEDFORD Sophomore Class BONNIE AYERS - Editor JANIE ALCORTE BEVERLY CROCKETT BARBARA HARRISON ARLINDA MEANS MELINDA VERETTE Clubs CYNTHIA MUENZ - Editor TONI COLTON WYNELL LOWE NANCY WEAVER Advertising MIKI SHAW - Editor JANET COLEY JAN KOTARA NADENE THURMOND Photographers BOBBY BUCKNER BILL JONES GENE MILLER MARTY SALINAS STEVE STEGE Ad Solicitors MIKE BUDNIK DALE BUSH DENNIS COMBS RICHARD KRET ARNOLD LYRO GREG MYERS TOMMY PRICE RICHARD RAMIREZ WALTER RAUSCHUBER BRUCE SEMLINGER STANLEY SHIPMAN RANDY WISE COY ZUNKER Sponsor MRS.
