TRAIL As surely as we hold this annual to- day, the future of the world rests in our hands, Just as many kinds of hands shape a ball of clay, so must we shape our future. To mold our lives well, our hands must be useful and strong, con- trolled by mature and diligent minds. So here it is-the '52 TRAIL. The staff hopes you like it. Wm Ei ,lv ,eww 'fm Q2-ek 'W 4--....

On bad politicians our school doesn't doteg There's never been buying or selling of vote. May the best person win is what we believeg The best man, the most votes will always receive. No mink coats or deep freezes given awayg To get into office, no use of foul play. The government's patterned where we go to school After that of the honest elephant and mule. Qui' gxecu fiuezi Orrin J. Weymouth, AB. MA Orrin J. Weymouth, superintendent of Sidney schools, came to Sidney to make his home Z7 years ago. The first course he taught was English' l and was it tough l at a school in Sidney. He's married and when asked if he had any children he answered, Yes, and how. His hobby is fishing if he ever could find time. The words he likes to hear most are, Here's the ten spot l borrowed, and the words he likes to say most are, Thanks, l'll take it. He states that his most embarrassing moment is unprintable. His pet peeve- l'm not mad. I love everything and everybody. Mr. Weymouth thinks high school stu- dents are o.k. They are a lot more on the ball than the oldsters give them credit for. Albert E. Nimtx, AB, MA Albert E. Nimtz likes to fish, but it's a sadly ne- glected hobby. Mr, Nimtz is the principal of the high school. He's married and has one child. They've lived in Sidney for six years. His most embarrassing moment was when he forgot his lines in a grade school play. His pet peeve is students and teachers who do not have things in on time. Here's that raise for services rendered, are the words he likes to hear most. He has always wanted to be a teacher. When asked why he liked sunrise the most of all the hours of the day, he said because he could look at the day with all its hopes and aspirations. He thinks high school students are normal, happy individuals. we 3400! goarcf MIS. B. H. Gfillilll Rge Jones Kgnngfh Agnew Hull Cook Albin Olson A. E. Wright Glenn Ackerson, AB Dean Killion, BME, MM jdCUAg Glenn Ackerson taught the x's and y's of algebra and the fundamentals of general science to the students who wanted to learn. Extra time was spent with the Black Knights and the senior class . . . lf your pet peeve is the wind in Western Nebraska, you and Art Bauer have something in common, A junior class sponsor, Mr, Bauer taught biology and coached the football team. His favorite motto is To achieve, you must endure, . . . Spon- soring the Hi-Life and the Trail was Dorothy Becker. She helped the juniors and the seniors through the more difficult phases of English and kept the journalism class busy. Miss Becker's pet peeve is lunch students who leave crumbs and coke bottles on chairs in lO2 which the fourth period students have to use . . . lf you want to learn about industrial arts, Don Burrows is the man to see. Don't try it without a pink slip though. He was also the assistant freshman coach and a freshman sponsor. Of all monarchs, Nature is the most just in the enactment of laws, and the most severe in punishing the violation of them, is his favor- ite quotation . . . Modern problems, American history, and driver's education were taken over the second semester by Carl Crouse. He was also the sponsor of the junior class and the Cheyenne County government at SHS . , . The saying, ls that clear? will tell the girls of the home economics l, ll, and lll who is speak- ing. Genevieve Fitch is the sponsor of the FHA and the senior class. Popping gum is her pet peeve . . . When they hear Be here at quarter to eight in the morning, all band members immediately think of Dean Killion. Those same people will know that Mr. Killion's pet peeve is not getting somewhere on time. A sponsor of the sophomore class, his time was spent with group lessons, private lessons, and the organization of grade school bands. Genevieve Fitch, AB, BS, ME Art Bauer, BS Dorothy Becker, AB Don Burrows, BS, MA Carl Crouse, AB, MA Ray Maley, BA, ME Ellenora Nimlz, BA Any one interested in world history, trades, or world geography has prob- ably been in one of Ray Maley's classes. A freshman sponsor, Mr. Maley helped the under classmen with their athletics. . . Senior class and pep club sponsor, Mabel Nielsen taught general mathematics, geometry, and girls' physical education, l-ler pet peeve is not having enough pep in the pep club, and her favorite saying is, Class begins at nine o'clock, Jack' ',.. El- lenora Nimtz took over the job of teaching the freshmen English the second semester. Mrs. Nimtz's pet peeve is poor speech. She was a fresh- man sponsor . . . Books, books, and more books were handled by Verna Robinson. Any one who spends at least one period in library during the day will soon learn that Miss Robinson de- tests unnecessary talking. She was a freshman class sponsor . . . When you hear, l-lave a Coca-Colal, you know that Lucille Selzer is handing out free advertisement for her husband, Mrs. Selzer, the school nurse, teaches Red Cross home nursing. l-ler pet peeve is absences at important demonstrations in class . . , Discussions of farm pro- duce, livestock, and agricultural issues filled the day of Louis Neuman, who trained the Sidney high boys in voca- tio n al agriculture. Agriculturally speaking, political plums do not come from seed-they come from clever grafting, are words that seem to ap- peal to Mr. Neuman . . . This year Sidney high government is in the cap- able hands of Bess Shires again. Be- sides this duty, Miss Shires teaches first and second years of English. A sophomore class sponsor, her pet peeve is students who don't enjoy working. Mabel Nielsen, BS Verna Robinson a A i 2 Lucille Selzer, RN Louis Neuman, BS Bess Shires, AB Leo Shuman, AB Renee Strom, BA Leo Shuman is the physics teacher and the coach of the basketball and track teams. He also has charge of the boys' physical education class. Downtown coaches are his pet peeve. He is a sponsor of the sophomore class and the S club . . . When her car is stuck or it won't run, Helen Smith experiences her most embarrassing moment. Mrs. Smith took over the job of teaching vocal music the second semester, therefore, her favorite say- ing is, After all-l'm just a substi- tute. The word that she thinks is said most often by her is, Quiet! in chorus . . . Renee Strom's day was filled with the clatter of typewriter keys and Spanish expressions. Miss Strom states her pet peeve is people who rip their paper out of the type- writer five minutes before the bell rings. As a junior class sponsor, she was in charge of the junior-senior ban- quet. She was also co-sponsor of the pep club . . . A junior class sponsor, Mary Winn was busy teaching book- keeping, shorthand, and typing ll. Her pet peeve is people who don't act as if they had good sense, especially in high school assemblies. Her favorite say- ing- Dinner's ready! . . , Another junior class sponsor was Vergal Winn. In order not to be classed with the people of his pet peeve, talking in an undertone, you would enroll in one of his classes, speech. Other classes he taught were advanced mathematics and audio-visual aids. His favorite saying is, You can take a horse to water, but you can't make him drink. ...John Miller is one of the custodians at Sidney high. His hobby is fishing and his pet peeve is muddy shoes. He had his most exciting moments while he was working for the railroad . . . John Edzard is the other custodian. He enjoys collecting odd knives and his favorite saying is, A stitch in time save nine. Vef90l Winn, BA.

Four big steps in four big years. ln them one finds mixed experiences- Joy, and pleasures, worries, fears. Freshman, Soph'more, Junior, Senior. Something new for all each day. You learn something every moment As you tread the high school way. Tho it's true you have bad moments, They seem petty when they're o'er, And they're far out ranked by pleasures By the good things ten times more.

Next year they're on their own. enior Cfazm ,Mdfory Back in the fall of '49, the seniors started work right away, by electing Marcelyn Dedrick, gov- ernor, Charles Bagby, lt. governor, Beverly Wasser, secretary, and Carletta Farmer, treasurer. We gave the upper classmen a reason to stare at us by doning comic character costumes for initiation. We were also forced to carry out the wishes of the upper classmen for the one day. Those on the reserve field carrying the football were Dean Wise, Stan Smith, Max Adams, George Barlow, Jon McWilliams, Jack Wiedeburg, and Ronald Rogers. Those sinking the basketball were George Barlow, Charles Bagby, Jon McWilliams, Jack Wiedeburg, Don Sabin, Larry Tobler, Stan Smith, Bill Welch, Ronald Rogers, Max Adams, Dean Wise, and Richard Amen. Miss Robinson, Mrs. Winn, and Mr. Ackerson supervised the production of our talents and interests. Murder provided the best entertainment for our class party on November l2. We presented our class program in the form ofa television show, A Day in Sidney High School, on March 31. The two who were chosen as candidates for Valentine Sweetheart were Bonita Hazlitt and Jeanne Livingston. We started out our sophomore year with a bang by electing Don Sabin, governor, Zleanne Liv- ingston, lt. governor, Beverly Wasser, secretary, and ,loan Mahaffey, treasurer. In October we staged an all high school masquerade dance which was one of the highlights of the season. Our class day program was presented February 28 and was based on the film, Every Day Courtesy. Pantomimes and music were worked around the caption, Your Manners are Showing. The big question of the day was How do you rate? Our state was efficiently sponsored by Miss Shires, Mr. Ackerson, and Mr. Neuman. Donna Wilson was elected Valentine Sweetheart, giving our class something else to boast of. We elected Bill Bolz as governor, Dean Wise, lt. governor, Bill Welch, secretary, and Jeanne Livingston, treasurer, to guide us through another year of high school. Our first big event was in November when we presented A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court. On February 4, the following juniors represented Sidney high at the County Government day: Charles Bagby, Pat Bright, Sharon Daniels, Arlina Harte, Bonita Hazlitt, Lucille Kampbell, Jeanne Livingston, Joan Mahaffey, Glenna Smith, Pat Stewart, Larry Tobler, Bev Wasser, Bill Welch, and Donna Wilson. World of the Future was the title of the program we presented on March l6. lt took place in the year 2051. The highlight of our year came on May 4, when we robbed our treasury to entertain the sen- iors with the annual Junior-Senior banquet. The theme was Mansions of Mephisto. When our senior year rolled around we elected Charles Bagby, governor, Don Sabin, lt. gover- nor, Pat Stewart, secretary, and Carol Tremain, treasurer. We had our annual senior sneak day on March 24, and the long awaited day was greatly welcomed. N h We were entertained at the annual Junior-Senior banquet in May. The theme was Arabian i ts.

Elected as legislators and representatives were Dale Borcher, Alberta Gentle, Georgia Bess, Gwen Jacob, Allyn Dee Whitmire, Edith Vining, Marsha Planck, Phyllis Moody, Jim Ziegler, Floyd Martinez, Carl Beebe, and Jack Nienhuser. Ser- geant-at-arms and assistant sergeant were Sharon Olsen and Dion Cawthra. The biggest event for the juniors was the class play, GREAT CAESAR'S GHOST, directed by Mr. Virgil Winn. The juniors have sponsored two school dances. Many of the juniors helped the seniors put out the '52 Trail. On County Government day, March 3, the fol- lowing juniors represented Sidney high school, Do- lores Fisher, Edith Vining, Cleo Kennedy, James Cullins, Jack Nienhuser, Marsha Planck, Alberta Gentle, Carol Hancock, Darrell Glassburn, Dale Borcher, Phyllis Moody, and Don Vincent. The junior program was held in the spring. The juniors have undertaken various money- making schemes such as selling at football and basketball games and dances and taking care of the coke machine. Watching over the juniors this year were their sponsors, Mr. and Mrs. Virgil Winn, Miss Renee Strom and Mr. Art Bauer, who have guided them well. The main event of the year is the annual Jun- ior-Senior banquet. The juniors put on the affair for the seniors at the end of the school term. This yeor's theme was Arabian Nights. The theme was carried out extremely well. Robert Deeder and Larry Allgood pose for a picture while in the midst of filling the coke machine.

As it had been a custom in the past, the pep club sponsored the Valentine Sweetheart. Carol Tremain was chosen for this honor and was pre- sented during the half of the Ogallala game, Feb- ruary l2. The pep club banquet which is held in the spring honoring the athletes is financed by dues, selling mums during Homecoming, and selling pro- grams during the football season. On honor day, the seniors were presented with a rose as a token of remembrance. All other mem- bers were given a chevron that they had earned during the last year.

THE SEASON Coached by ex-Cornhusker Art Bauer, the Maroons came up with a creditable record of eight wins and one loss. They proved their abilities Dy winning the Western Nebraska Panhandle conference championship. The high scoring team chalked up 29l points to their opponents' 59. The Maroons started the season by crushing the Bridgeport l l to the. tune of 38 to O. George Barlow scored twice and Anderson, Glass- burn, McWilliams, and Seevers each tallied once. Loud were the cheers of the Sidney fans. Next the Maroons invaded Curtis. The Aggies proved too strong, and the Maroons lost 20 to 7. McWilliams scored the onLy Maroon touchdown. Oh well, watch us when we meet Mitchell! Monty Edwards started the flame of hope again as he scored the lone touchdown which beat Mitchell 7 to O. Now we're on our way. Numerous fans followed the player's bus to Gordon and were not disappointed as Barlow scored four TD's to lead the victory: Sidney 59, Gordon l3. Next stop-Ogallala! Then came the scalping of the Ogallala lndians, ZO to O. Mc- Williams, Glassburn, and Rogers scored. Bring on Oshkosh! lt was a very sad day for Oshkosh when the Maroons rolled in. The undefeated Eagles were no more! The Maroons clipped their wings, 28 to O. ln front of Gregg McBride, tool Championship bound, the mighty Maroons trounced Gering, 34 to 6. McWilliams scored three times and Rogers twice. Chappell- here we come! Avenging last year's scare, the Maroons toppled the Chappell Buffaloes, 46 to 7. The Maroons then went on to clinch the title by walloping Kim- ball 52 to l3. On the ground the Maroons rolled up a total of 2,906 yards with an average of 6.76 yards per carry. The kick-off average was 44.55 yards per kick against their opponents' 38 yard average. ln the ball-toting department, McWilliams and Rogers were tied at 7.8 yards per carry.

The l95l -52 basketball cagers show an impressive season with a I4-5 record. The Sidney five started out slow with a loss to North Platte, but came back and beat Bayard and Lodgepole by big scores. The team won from Kimball and Chappell by close margins before losing to Goth- enburg, Alliance and Gering. The Maroons then caught fire and went through the rest of the regular season undefeated, winning seven games in a row. The highlights of the season were winning from Kimball, Chappell and Mitchell on their home floors for the first time since l945. The Mitchell game was also the one- hundreth game won by Coach Shuman's basketball teams since he began coaching at Sidney high. ln the District Class B tournament held at Scottsbluff the Maroons defeated Bridgeport and Kimball only to lose to Gering in the finals and place as runner-up.

Highlights of the year were the Christmas program under Mrs. Kil- lion's direction and the spring con- cert which Mrs. Smith presented. Pictured at the left and below are two informal views of the chorus re- hearsing with Mrs. Smith. lf you were a visitor to SHS during the second and third periods, you would probably hear beautiful music floating through the halls. This lovely harmony would no doubt come from the mixed chorus or one of the glee clubs. This was an interesting and varied year for the vocal music department of SHS. Mrs. Patricia Killion was the instructor in charge of all vocal groups. During the second semester Mrs. Helen Smith substituted for Mrs. Kil- lion. Q 13 75 fl sf sz' , M., is NEW 3 51.

But despite some nasty weather, it was more than worth it, especially to the seniors who had waited long for a real marching band. The band is shown here at one of the early games. l Something new in Sidney high's band is the drum This year's flute trio is made up of Donna Steward ensemble. Left to right: Sharon Daniels, Jo Brumtield, Cleo Kennedy, and Margie Copley. Marsha Planck, Arlene Hiner, Georgia Kennedy, and Marcelyn Dedrick. Though they didn't travel to any out- of-town games, the pep band did more than its share at our pep rallys, often playing extras like Brass Band Boogie and Goofus. Relaxing alter a pep rally is the SHS pep band. Left to right: Bagby, Maley, Jones, Daniels, Gilliland, Nissen, and Shuman. The SHS band had an active school year. ln the fall Mr. Killion had band members marching every morning, learning to the rear, double to the rear, left flank, and a number of other man- euvers entirely new to the band. Results of this drill were shown in half-time performances the band could be proud of and parades through town with The Strawberry Blond and Sound Off echoing down the streets. The first trip of the year was to band day at Scottsbluff where several bands from the Pan- handle participated, Then more drill and finally the wonderful trip to band day at Lincoln. As soon as marching season was over, the band started working on the detailed business of learning to playl One of the first performances was for the benefit of students wanting to know about instruments and who were interested in joining the band. Then started the job of practicing for the Mid-Winter concert in January, lt was work, but the improvement was worth it. In February the Sterling band gave a performance here and in March the SHS band traveled to Colorado for a return engagement, April found members working on contest numbers. A precon- test program was held, and on April l7 and l8 the real contest at Scottsbluff was attended.
