Southwood High School - Lance Yearbook (Wabash, IN)

Speech and Academics Play Major Roles N.F.L members were frequently awakened each Saturday of the school year by ringing alarm clocks at five a.m. This meant another day of riding a bus to an area school, participating in three rounds, and hopefully, a final round. N.F.L. members learned how to speak with feeling, or as Mr. Thomas Og- lesby, speech coach, has put it, to speak with soul . Southwood was represented in na- tional competition by Steve Lakes, who placed first in boys ' ex- temporaneous speaking at the state level. Thespian members worked long hours this spring to produce the play Flowers for Algernon. Flow- ers for Algernon was a play filled with many scene changes and lighting cues that seemed to run smoothly for a high school production. National Honor Society inducted 23 new members in February. They were chosen on the basis of schol- arship, leadership, service, and character. Members were in charge of ti- cket sales for the Youth for Under- standing fish fry. The year was con- cluded with a picnic at Salamonie.

Publications, Camera Club Capture School Spirit Hundreds of pictures, a similar number of rewritten layout sheets, and a dozen stubby pencils were just some of the things found as the Lance staff tried to compile the record of a productive school year. Being both critic and production worker had its problems. It was dif- ficult to select which pictures would best tell the story for a par- ticular event. Another problem de- veloped when copy was to be ready for a deadline and literary creativity suddenly ceased to func- tion. In spite of difficulties, mem- bers of the staff worked to present the student body with a yearbook that would help them remember the events of an exciting 1971-72 school year. These members were Ken Einselen, Carol Rapp, Cheryl Fulton, Rick Brandenburg, Gary Ja- coby, Chris George, Jackie Bassett, Rod Waite, and Kathy Lynch. Pho- tographs were provided by Mr. William Smith, Mr. Barry Conrad, Earl Rogers of Rogers ' Studio, Da- vid Sprinkle, and Dave Ulshafer. Sales and advertising personnel in- cluded Robbin Sartain, Bonita Brodt, Marlene Rapp, Donna Em- rick, and Mark Bowman. Mrs. Jud- ith Fahrnow was the Lance advisor. The staff is grateful to the Irving Music Company for allowing the inclusion of the lyrics of the song We ' ve Only Just Begun, words by Paul Williams, music by Roger Nichols, copyright 1970, Irving Mu- sic, Inc. (BMI). The Crusader used a different type of organization this year to try to cover news more thoroughly. The paper was divided as follows: newspage, Carol Rapp, editor; edi- torial page, Anita Smith, editor- feature page, Nancy Peebles, edi- tor; and sports page, Karen Thomas, editor. The staff would like to give special thanks to Mrs. Sheila Reiter, sponsor, and Dave Ulshafer and David Sprinkle, photographers. Camera Club worked to produce pictures of various activities at Southwood. Students learned how to get special effects with their cameras, how to develop pictures, and how to care for their cameras.
