Class officers elected that fall were: president, Chris Knauer; vice-president, Donnie Carroll; secretary, Phyllis Orth; treasurer, Peggy Kuhns; and Student Council members Christine Thomas, Pat Harring, Steve Sullivan. A float entitles ‘‘Pin the Panthers” was entered in the homecoming parade with the aid of Mrs. Buford, our class sponsor for our first year. Wayne Leitzen, Randy Polhill, Phyllis Orth and Marlene Shepherd were elected as class officers by seventy-seven returning sophomores. Student Council representatives were Bill Borsdorf, Bob Rech- steiner and Pat Harring. As our class sponsor, Mrs. Hill helped us assemble the float ‘‘Let's Have a Graveyard Smash” which won first prize in the homecoming parade, and to organize a work-day, and take care of the coat check as money-raising projects. Seventy-two strong, the class of '67 returned to S.H.S. on August 30, 1965 as juniors braced for a busy year. Junior class officers were: Bill Krahmer, president; Steve Sullivan, vice-president; Jane Edlin, secretary; Peggy Kuhns, treasurer. Christine Thomas, Bob Rechsteiner and Bill Borsdorf repre- sented us in Student Council. ‘‘We'll Land a Victory By Gemini” was the theme of our third homecoming float. To raise money for the Junior-Senior Prom, ‘‘Show of Stars,” the class had charge of all con- cession stands at football and basketball games, sponsored sock hops, and presented a three-act comedy ‘‘Life With Father,” directed by Mrs. O'Boyle. Our advisers were Mr. Werkheiser, Mr. Underwood and Mr. Schwenn. Prom King and Queen were Bill Borsdorf and Phyllis Orth. Chosen by the class and faculty, Bill Krahmer, Steve Rees, Jerry Below and Burton Streicher attended Premier Boys' State and Lynnette Clark attended Illini Girls' State to represent Stockton High. Feeling the prestige of senior rank, sixty-nine seniors began their last year at Stockton High School on August 31, 1966. Our homecoming float ‘‘Let's Tip 'Em,” was our first project of the 66-67 year. It was followed by the senior class play, ‘‘Remarkable Incident at Carson's Corners,” a light drama with a powerful ending, directed by Mr. Andrews. As well as the play, the class sold magazines and sponsored other projects to finance our class trip. Senior class officers were: Steve Rees, president; Dick Stein- estel, vice-president; Phyllis Orth, secretary; Peggy Kuhns, treasurer. Student Council members were Christine Thomas, Bob Rechsteiner and Bill Borsdorf. Bob Rechsteiner was also elected president of the Student Council. The Daughters of the American Revolution award and The Betty Crocker Homemaker of Tomorrow award both went to Christine Thomas. Yavuz Cizmeci, American Field Service representative from Turkey was an honored member of the class of '67. Mr Ezel and Mr. Leonarczyk were our senior class sponsors. Homecoming royalty throughout the four years were Pat Harring, freshman attendant; Nancy Clay, sophomore attendant; Peggy Kuhns, junior attendant; Phyllis Orth, senior attendant; and Debbi Offenheiser, homecoming queen for 1967. Nancy Clay was elected junior varsity cheerleader from the freshman class, Nancy Clay and Pat Harring from the sophomore class, Peggy Kuhns and Nancy Clay as varsity cheer- leaders our junior year, and Nancy Clay, Peggy Kuhns and Pat Harring as senior cheerleaders. Those boys participating in various sports were: Below, Bergeman, Buske, Croffoot, Fischer, Hutchi- son, N. Heidenreich, R. Heidenreich, Knauer, Krahmer, Larson, Pafford, Polhill, Rees, Sullivan and Tucker. The Senior Class of 1967 extends many thanks to the faculty and administration for their time, help, patience and co-operation throughout our high school education.

The theme was carried out by a huge gold star suspended from mid ceiling, a star studded water pond, and a huge starry-night mural painted in oil by Michele Heindel. An array of silver stars was the backdrop for the crowning. Joe Katzenberger and Pris- cilla Popel crowned Bill Borsdorf and Phyllis Orth prom king and queen for 1966. Their court consisted of Bill Krahmer and Peggy Kuhns, Wayne Leit- zen and Nancy Clay, Steve Rees and Pat H a r r i n g , and Steve Sullivan and Jane Edlin. -44 SENIOR ATTENDANT Phyllis Orth 0W£60UO«lg 66 The 1966 Stockton Homecoming began Friday afternoon, October 6, with a pep session and a parade through town. First prize for the class floats entered in the parade went to the freshmen; second to the sophomores; third to the seniors; and fourth to the juniors. Excitement and team spirit ran high throughout the day and the big game Friday night against Orangeville. The queen and her court were presented before the first quarter. With fans strongly supporting them, the Blackhawks carried through to defeat Orangeville 48-0. “Fall Festival” was the theme of the dance held Saturday night. Couples danced to the music of the Velvetones. At 10:00 Debbi Offenheiser was crowned as Homecoming Queen. Her attendants were: Phyllis Orth, senior; Terry Edlin, junior; Nancy Tael, sophomore; and Dixie Wulff, freshman.

FFA-FHA experimented with the mid-winter tradition and came away winners. They aimed a strong Roadrunner beat at the feet of the Pepsi-generation and the usual table-hugging crew was irresistibly drawn into a massive hip-jostling contest mid-floor. Nancy and Neale wore the crowns and were surrounded by an elected court identified above. Envision, if you can, red and pink hearts, white fencing, doves, cupids, Valentine trees—label it February Fantasy and then credit the think committee directly to the left with a resounding success. 61 (.aJUx) BOB RECH STEINER Student Council President AFS Club President CHRIS THOMAS Betty Crocker Homemaker Award DAR Award RANDY WULPF FFA President NORMA JEAN GROEZ1NGER Library Club President Annual Staff Editor v YAVUZ CIZMECI AFS Scholar NANCY BAYLOR FHA President STEVE REES Senior Class President LYNNETTE CLARK Girls' State NORMAN RECHSTEINER Freshman Class President Ul)Uo DEBBI OFFENHEISER FBLA President JERRY BELOW Boys’ State KAREN SPITTLER FT A President BILL KRAHMER Boys’ State MICKEY HEIN DEL Drama Club President Arrowhead Editor BURTON STREICHER Boys’ State KRISTIE ALZENO Junior Class President PHYLLIS ORTH GAA President Pep Club President DEBBIE LAWFER Sophomore Class President 63 L-ib tOHAg C ub ROW 1-V.

Each day over one hundred books are checked out and a comparable amount put back on the shelves in the proper Dewey classification. Cataloging cards, filling out book cards and readying shelves are some of the student librarian’s duties. Torn pages are repaired and many books are reinforced with new stitching and taped spines; then they are re-labeled and shellacked. Through learning these skills and many more, the girls further their interest in the library profession. 66 C duJb The AFS Club is an organization for those students who wish to assist in the foreign ex- change student program. The club built a victory arch and decorated the goal posts for home- coming, sponsored an AFS week-end, and aided in the card party given by the adult chapter.

Our three nominations for county officers were: vice-president, Jeanie Wood; treasurer, Carol Lambert; song leader, Janelle Glanville. The purpose of our club was to further the interest of those wish- ing to become teachers. Films on teaching and college education, a panel discussion between the new teachers, and a talk given by Mrs. Carol Noller on re- medial reading were held during some of our regular meetings. Many of our students showed their interest by teaching classes at the grade school and the high school. The club tried to rely on the seniors for leadership, but due to schedule difficulty, it was not always possible. FTA OFFICERS: SEATED-K. Spittler, president; Mr. Kiefer; D.

We are attempting this in several ways: firstly, through an inten- sive revampment of the local theatre situation with the pro- curing of much-needed equip- ment; secondly, with competition in the local, regional and state Speech contests; and thirdly, with an active membership whose interests lie in the future of vocal communication. It is our belief that in learning to speak well, we may prove a valuable asset to both ourselves and to the school and community. DRAMA CLUB OFFICERS: SEATED-Mr. Andrews, adviser; M.

(Mohandas Gandhi) 80 njowu ( clnlacA to z tdcl tbu by Joe Turkey of Stockton In August 19, 1966 a guy arrived in Stockton. He is from a country which is far off-------Turkey. He didn’t know neither anything about American way of life nor anybody. But, he didn’t find any difficulty to find friends. Everybody was friend of him. The week after school started, he knew everybody, and everybody knew him. They even called him Joe Turkey. This is how my year started in Stockton, and since that time I saw the nicest, friendliest, most hospitable people in Stockton, I’ve ever seen. Also, besides having lots of friends, and a lots of fun, I have a family, parents who call me as one of their sons. As one of the ideas of American Field Service program, I like to mention briefly about my country, Turkey. For many thousands of years, because of its unique geographical position as a bridge between Europe and Asia, over and over again Turkey has been the scene of thrilling historical events. Anatolia has seen the birth of such world-renowned cultures as those of the Hittitcs, the Byzantines, the Seljuks and the Ottoman Turks. The oldest ruins that were found in Turkey are from the Neolithic period and date from 6000 B.C. The history that we exactly know begins in Anatolia with the Hittites. The Hittites came from Asia and settled in Anatolia about 2000 B.C. where they built towns. They were at their most flourishing in 1300 B.C. From then on they slowly declined and retreated to the east of Anatolia. Subsequently the Phrygian civilization became manifest, until they came under the rule of the Lydians. The Lydians are known as the first people to use money. One of their kings, Croesus, was famed for his wealth. In the 4th century B.C. Anatolia fell into the hands of Alexander the Great, and then into the hands of the Romans in the 1st century B.C. When the empire was split in two in 395 the Byzantine Empire was established and continued until the Seljuk invasions. With the arrival of the Seljuks in 1071 Turkish sovereignty over this region began. When the Seljuks fell from power Anatolia divided into a number of different “beyliks.” One of these, the Ottoman Beylik, grew in a short space of time and spread into Anatolia and the Balkans. In the 16th century, when the (Woman Empire was at its height its frontiers extended from the Adriatic to the Bay of Basra, from Roumania and the Crimea to Yemen and included all of the North African states. The empire became weaker in the 19th century and was destroyed altogether following the defeat of its allies in the First World War. The Turks were then obliged to fight the War of Inde- pendence. and the Turkish nation under the leadership of Kemal Ataturk gained its independence as a result of battles fought between 1919 and 1922. The Republic was declared in 1923. Mustafa Kemal became the father of Turks (ATATURK) by: winning the war of Independence, abolishing Caliphate, declaring the republic, replacing Islamic laws by the Civil law and Civil criminal law, giving equality to women in every field including politics, abolishing the Arabic alphabet, and adopting Latin alphabet, international hours, calendar, measurements, and separating religion from governmental business. Today, Turkey is a republican democracy. The Turkish Parliament consists of the Grand National Assembly (450) and Senate (150). Islam is the dominant religion with 99% of the population. The total popu- lation of Turkey is over 32.000,000 and it has an area of 310,000 square miles, larger than any nation of Europe with the exceptions of USSR and Iran. Of this area 97% lies in what historically has been called Asia, and 3% is in Europe, by the name of Thrace. Schooling on the elementary level is compulsary, and all schools through the university are free of charge and co-educational. Since the foundation of the Turkish Republic, the guiding principle of its foreign policy has been a world order based on the equality and peaceful existence of all nations in the world.

We were a typical staff in that we had many hectic and frantic moments, failed to meet deadlines, and generally speaking waited until the last minute to worry about things. Inclement weather caused us to cancel four of our first five scheduled meetings; consequently we started off on a bad foot. Deadline dates were known well in advance, but due to picture delay and some slow response on our part, we failed to meet the deadlines. However, the meetings we had were fun most of the time, and we did shove forword in our efforts. We hope that you will bear this in mind whenyougazeat our book, and maybe you will better appreciate our efforts and time. 82 -A KAAAJLUX PHOTOGRAPHY - Mr. Bretl on the Job.

The play concerns a blustery middle-aged gentleman in the late 1880's who has just admitted to his wife that he has never been baptised. Vinnie, his sweet and seemingly meek wife, persuades him through the antics of their four boys and her own gentle but effective ways to be baptised.

It is the story of murder in a small town setting. A fatal accident involving one of their classmates has plunged the student body of Carson Corners High School into a public trial of their accused, Peter Kovalesky, the school janitor. The students persevere through purge, temper and parents until at last the dead boy’s father brings the “trial” to a halt with his confession of neglecting a final adjustment to the rail of a fire escape through which his son fell, fourteen years later. 91 CAST Dr. and Mrs. Caldwell . .

C OUM jAjOUJVy tb CI oQJQaAajOvl Obviously the game doesn't start 105 minutes before. It probably doesn't begin at game time. Maybe it starts on an empty lot next door years before, with a gang of neighborhood boys treating one another to scars and lumps in a referee-less match. But that's too involved a story for us. We decided on the spur of one moment to do a picture study of just those 105 minutes prior to the last contest, a big one with Galena. We started with two blank rolls and faithful old Yashica. The plan was to shoot at will, with no big deal theme outlined in advance. So we shot.

After a slow start, Stockton finally jelled and showed promise against con- ference powers at the end of the season. After being beat decisively the first two games, Stock- ton came back with three non-scored upon games; Durand 22-0, Orangeville 48-0, and Dakota 19-0. After the Pearl City game the defense jelled and held their opponents to 90 points while scoring 123. With Scace and Larson running well behind Buske’s passing, Stockton managed to put to- gether some thrilling games that were not decided until the last 30 seconds. Against a tough, ex- perienced Lanark team, Stockton jumped off to a quick 14-0 lead. From then on the game was strictly defensive with Stockton containing the conference’s leading scorer. Lanark finally forged ahead with Stockton putting on a last minute surge trying for the winning score. Time ran out, and the Blackhawks went down fighting. The Lena game gave Stockton its biggest loss of the season, three players were injured including halfback Dick Larson for the rest of the season. Lacking in a strong bench, Stockton quickly faded before losing, 28-0. Warren drew the largest crowd of the season, with the Blackhawks 23 year jinx on the Warriors at stake. It ended with the same result as the Lanark game with the Blackhawks not capitalizing on a scoring opportunity in the last minute. The finest game of the season was yet to come. The conference lead- ers managed only a 6-0 lead at halftime on the pesky Blackhawks. This was a great showing considering the opposition had up to 20 lbs. more on the Blackhawks. The highlight of the evening came when Reno Rees broke off tackle for a 72 yard touchdown against the big, but swift Pirates. The season was considered a good one after the team jelled and showed great team spirit at times. FRONT ROW-J. Morgan. R. Polhlll, R. Wulff, K. Tucker, T. King. BACK ROW - L. Green, D. Fry, S.

' oM’tboM '66-67 In his first year of coaching, Mr. Brissey led the Blackhawks to 3rd place in the Conference. Victories included Elizabeth and Warren, Stockton's most bitter rivals. The victory over Warren ended a four year losing streak to the Warriors. Stockton's three finest games, however, were in losing efforts. Galena, a tall and experienced team, found themselves losing at the hands of Stockton most of the game until their height advantage overpowered the scrappy Blackhawks in the final quarter. It was the same situation on Orangeville's home court. The Blackhawks played a tremendous game waiting for the right shot and making most of them. Stockton ended the season with a near miss of the biggest upset of the year to Freeport of the Big Eight Conference. Stockton showed what real hustle and determination can do when lacking the real tall front line. The four seniors of the Blackhawks led the scrappy club. Chris Knauer, playing his last of 3 years on varsity totaled 306 points and won the trophy for free throw percentage for the third straight year with 80% from the line. He was voted MVP for the second straight year. Steve Sullivan was elected honorary captain and showed his ability on defense and rebounding with 144 rebounds. Senior guards, Polhill and Tucker, put the hustle and scrap into the Blackhawks. Junior Bill Williams and Sophomore Jim Sullivan chipped in with 133 and 196 rebounds respectively.

Although the record is not impressive, this was a good season. Lack of experience was the major draw-back. At the end of the season the wres- tlers tied Lanark and defeated Dakota, both of whom had beaten them soundly earlier. With the loss of only one member of this year's team we can expect better things for next year. 124 SEVENTH GRADE: FRONT ROW-J. Tucker, D. Mackaben, T. Williams, G. Lawfer, C. Osterday, R. Beath, D.
