The veterans assure the coaches and teachers That things are bound to shape up. Sure enough, by mid-semester Things have settled into a pattern Broken only by the fire drill bell. By the end of the year all can look back To the long hours, the laughter, the tears And when they reflect they can honestly say It wasn ' t so bad, we had our good times too. Lee Ray t Dil1tWwi (fh Jr JK ll J It ' ACADEMICS One of Superior ' s largest industries is administered by the superintendent of schools and the principals under the supervision of the Board of Education. Both in budget and in number of employees (74) the school system outranks most other Superior businesses. This year the high school functioned much as it has in the past. The superintendent and the principal worked in coop- eration with the school board to adapt school policy to changing conditions. They then implemented this policy in all areas, making reports to the Department of Education, recommending the hiring of teachers and overseeing their per- formances, administering the school finances and hot lunch program, composing and enforcing the student handbook. A suggestion box, installed by the Student Council, col- lected ideas of the students concerning needed changes. These suggestions were channeled through the council to the administration, resulting in changes such as the inclusion of percentage grades on report cards. Consideration of other possible changes progressed through surveys and discussions. From his desk in the administrative offices. Superintendent Dale D. Mooberry guides the progress of the Superior schools. The eivic-minded school board members in- clude, seated, Mr. Leslie Alexander, Mr. Mar- shall Vale; standing, Mr. Vernon Johnson, Mr. Keith Deuel, Mr. Don Meyer and Dr. Ted Kiekhaefer. T i Once again Mr. Haasc. principal, makes fin- al preparations before distributing report cards. 1 1 Needs and development of each student as an individual are the basic obhgations in programs of guidance counsehng and speech therapy. Mr. Gerald Wooters, guidance counselor, keeps personal files on all students, and counsels with them concerning their courses of study and future plans. He helps to intro- duce freshmen to high school through freshman guidance classes, and administers tests designed to help define a stu- dent ' s capabilities and aptitudes. Individual counseling by Mr. Al Klaasmeyer has helped some students accomplish their main goal of overcoming speech difficulties. Speech therapy helps a student to devel- op healthy, personal, social and emotional growth and to increase self-understanding. Typing information for reference forms is only one of the many duties of Mr. Wooters, guidance counselor. Mr. Al Klaasmeyer demonstrates to Terr Zciglcr how lie uses the tape re- corder in speech therapy. Senior Tom Rathbun seeks help in American Government from his instructor Mr. Cestaro. Four year programs in the Social Science, Science and Mathematics Depart- ments helped students prepare for after-graduation goals. Immediate application of their learning was apparent in the Science Department, as Mr. George Campbell got things started on cold winter mornings by turning on sev- eral gas spigots and lighting the flow of gas. Meanwhile Mr. James Deaver might have been making up tests with what seemed unpractical questions, but required very practical answers. Later in the day, both men instructed students in well- equipped labs, conducting experiments in general science, biology, chemistry, physics and physiology. Panel discussions, surveys and lectures, all conducted by students, sparked interest in Social Sciences classes under Mr. Gene Cestaro and Mr. Robert Gosch. Panel dis- cussions offered opportunity for free expression about history, lecturers commented on historic events, and sur- veys took in personal opinions on such sociological items as choosing friends. For the sixth consecutive year the Mathematics De- partment brought home a medal from the annual Kearney Inter-High Scholastic Contest. Taking fourth place in Al- gebra II was Susan Miller, and Sandy Wyatt received honorable mention in Algebra I. Math instructors are Mrs. Lois Hunter and Mr. Cestaro. In the other sciences, Scott Duncan won a fourth-place medal in General Science while Scott Morris received honorable mention in World History. Mr. Gosch gives a smile of approval as someone makes a discerning comment in one of his American History discussion groups. uo. The use of the microscope is being demonstrated by Mr. Deaver for physiology student Hans Ehlers. Mrs Hunter helps prepare Kevin Bargen for his competition in trigonometry at the Kearney Scholastic Con test. Climaxmg nme years ol teachmg m SHS, Mr. Campbell straightens his equipment to do one last experiment for his students in what he considers a well-equipped lab. 11 Mark Diehl consults Mrs. Bohling con- cerning pictures he has taken for the WILDCAT.

Mrs. Campbell ' s library know-how assisted many students in their search for greater knowledge. Mr. Don Wilson prepared his junior and senior students for college English work by instructing them in writing. Personal and expository essays were tackled by the junior students while the seniors proceeded to higher ground with research papers on literary subjects. Greek mythology, Shakespeare ' s JULIUS CAESAR, and Machiavelli ' s THE PRINCE were chalked up by Mr. William Witty ' s sophomore English students upon completion of their anthologies. Freshmen under Miss Margo Gilster and Mrs. Beth Bohl- ing read THE ODYSSEY and HUCKLEBERRY FINN, broadening their appreciation of these classics with filmed lectures. Other selections varied from class to class. Specialized work in the English area included speech and journalism, also taught by Mrs. Bohling. In the foreign language field. Miss Gilster set up special lab periods to give her students extra experience in speaking French. 13 y K C C o- ' f ' o Appreciation of craftsmanshi is the goal the vocational arts teachers have in mind as they teach new skills to their beginning classes and see the ad- Cv vanced students struggle to perfect those skills. S Mr. Gene Bruening, instructor of shop, mechanical draw- (5-jing and driver education, has seen the goal of craftsmanship 0 0 V; N lead this year to student projects including a boat, gun- s-__racks, end tables, bookcases, beds, stereo tape cartridge box o and a cedar chest. Shop classes also built shelves for the art SQOm and made tables for the Youth Center. -A These are new skills I ' m teaching, something students have never had before, and they seem interested in new things, stated Mrs. Margaret Clabaugh, the first woman business instructor for seven years. Mrs. Clabailgh teaches shorthand, typing, advanced typ- ing, secretarial practices and one bookkeeping class. Teaching young women the art of running a home is Mrs. Eleanor Harriger, home economics teacher. She also is a supervisor of student teachers for the Uni- versity of Nebraska. This year Mrs. Harriger has supervised four different student teachers-Miss Cheryl Anderson and Mrs. Jeanne Carmichael, first semester, and Miss Alice New- ton and Miss Marie Bush, second semester. The vocational agriculture classes give the students a basic understanding in agriculture-related fields. Mr. Jerry Warner, vocational agriculture and mechanical skills instructor, strives to acquaint the students with these areas and also to help them decide which field they might wish to pursue in the future. Mr. Bruening seems to be stumped as what to do next on Mitch Jacoby ' s gun stock. Jim Barton makes preparations before he begins to weld while Mr Warner checks his procedures. 14 It seems that all freshman home ec. girls, even Linda Noren, get stuck sometimes and need Mrs. Harri- ger ' s assistance in rippmg out part of their projects. pi Nancy Curfman fmds that Mrs. Clabaugh ' s help in typewriting problems is beneficial in furthering her typing know-how. 15 Mr. Gordon Harper, director, and junior Nancy Fuller discuss the vocal numbers for the all-school musical, MY FAIR LADY. A newcomer to SHS, Mr. Harper encouraged informal contemporary music also. Big John Mills takes a few moments out of his busy band director ' s schedule to try out a new arrangement on his trumpet. Mr. Mills arranged all the orchestra music for MY FAIR LADY and most of the numbers for the SHS Dance Band. Sandra Wyatt receives a couple of helpful pointers on her woodcut from Mr. Roger Batt, art instructor. A new kiln in the Art Department enabled Mr. Batt to teach his students the basic fundamentals of ceramics as well as expression in other media. 16 Mr. Gary Kile, who transferred to boys P.E. from commercial in- structor this year, checks Duane Morris in a physical fitness test. Doing your ' thing ' was the opportunity provided by a varied offering in the fields of fine arts and physical education. Nearly 45 per cent of the high school students partici- pated in the activities of the Music and Art Departments, while more than 75 per cent took P.E. at least twice a week. Even students not enrolled in music or art benefitted in- directly from performances and displays in tliese fields. The band performed at ball games, represented the school in marching contests, and presented concerts. An orchestra make up of selected members provided the accompaniment for MY FAIR LADY, all-school musical which was a major activity of the Vocal Music Department, together with concerts and small group performances. Drawings, painting and sculptures from the art classes brightened the library and hall display cases, to say nothing of the atmosphere provided as art students turned the south hall into a workshop for creating sets for MY FAIR LADY. The P.E. program offered a variety of activities through the year, stressing the development of skills for sports in season. Tournaments helped to identify the most proficient, while physical fitness tests provided another yardstick. Okay now girls, jump high! Miss Linda Georgis coaches her P.E. girls in the art of basketball. Miss Georgis came to SHS fresh out of teachers college, but quickly hit her stride. 17 Keeping up with tlie boot; work at SHS is Mrs. Darlcne Poti. ' rsen, secretary to tlie superintendent. Head cook for the Superior School hot lunch program, Mrs. Cecil Thompson, checlss student reaction to the meals served a.s pupils return their plates at the North Ward lunch room. Preparing the noon lunch is the duty of the high school cooks: Mrs. Sylvia Cox, Mrs. Etta Jones and Mrs. Viola McGovvan. Mrs. Marilyn Krotzinger, secretary to Principal Charles Haase. was always ready to assist any stu- dent. Although they were behind the scenes much of the time, the jani- tors played a big part in keeping the SHS wheels in motion. Mr. Earl Hoskins (above) served as both janitor and bus driver while Mr. Ed Fayle (below) spent his time at SHS after dismissal clean- ing up after a full da of dirt had settled. I r long with his duties as janitor. Mr. Gorman [ ' oley iffered his photographic know-how to the F- ' LASH- JGHT and WILDCAT Staffs. Here he teaches se- lior Terry Zeigler the finer details of developing ' )ictures in the dark room 19 I ACTIVITIES One of the most successful groups ever to come out of the Music Department is the Senior Folk, They performed before over 4,000 people in their 1969-70 existence. Members are D. Downing, Mr. Harper, P. Pettigrew, J. Mullet. P. Hansen, B. Clabaugh, T. Rath- bun, L. Thomas, M. Eickmann, G. Lillich, L. Karmazin, K. Robin- son, G. Casek, L. Springer, R. Deuel, N. Headrick, K. Adams, J. Braun. L. Powell, and L. Powell. New direction brouglit a change of pace to the Vocal Music Department this year. Breaking away from the usual trend of small vocal groups, Mr. Gordon Harper, vocal music director, created the Senior Folk. This mixed group of 2 1 members performed for various clubs and school activities, singing folk and contemporary music with guitars for accompaniment. Two vocalists, Glenn Cacek and Ken Adams, were chosen to attend All-State at Omaha, Nov. 20-22. The Mid-Nebraska Conference Annual Vocal Music Clinic was held at Grand Island Central Catholic on Nov. 25 under the direction of Mr. William A. Lynn, director of Kearney State Choraleers. The musical this year, My Fair Lady, was presented on Feb. 23 and 24. Other activities of the vocal music department were a Christmas Vespers Program, a Spring Concert and the music contest at Dewitt. Accompanists for vocal groups, Peggy Pettigrew and Nancy Fuller, go over some of the contest pieces for various ensembles and individ- uals. 22 li A Final preparations for contest are being made by trio members Bev Oabaugh (alto), Kathy Robinson (2nd soprano), and Bonnie Kiein- sasser (1st soprano). The Boys ' Quartet looks reluctant to go a roving with their fair maids as they rehearse for their journey to DeWitt Tri-County for contest. Members are Ken Adams, Dwayne McKeown, Rod Deuel and Ragene Darling. I Superior Singers: Row 1, L. Powell, G. Cacek, S. Miner, R. Deuel. P. Pettigrew; Row 2. J. lul- lerton. R. Alexander, D.

Glen Cacek, drum ' major, aided by Yvonne Yerton, as- sistant majorette, and Cindia Stauss, twirler, led the march- ing band in such events as Band Day in Kearney, the Ameri- can Legion 50th Anniversary Parade in Franklin and a pre- school engagement in the Jewel County 4-H parade at Mankato, Kansas, in which they received a blue ribbon. The band also highlighted local events like Homecoming, Kid ' s Day Parade and caroling at Christmas time. Students were required to pass a test this year to get in- to concert band. The Dance Band traveled to clinics in Hastings, and Falls City. Their prograins included Mid- night Cowboy, You ' ve Lost That Lovin Feeling and Light My Fire. Martha Bohling, junior, was chose for Honor Band this year. She played first clarinet in the Wildcat band for the past two years. An awards banquet for band members and their dates was held on May 1 , followed by a dance featuring the high school Dance Band. With the help of the band officers, Nancy Fuller, vice-president; Dan Jackson, secretary-treasurer; Randy Alexander, Student Council representative; Rodney Deuel, president; and Megan Moret, librarian, Mr. Mills completes his list of members receiving band letters. 25 With short skirts and peppy routines, the Lettergirls lead the band in the hallways as well as on the street.

Standing for kick-offs and sitting through all kinds of weather to support their team, the Superior Wildcat Pep Club cheered the football squad on. They also backed the varsity basketball team and coach all the way to the Class B District Tournament at DeWitt Tri-County. Homecoming, a major fall activity of Pep Club, was built around the theme Mod, Mad World. The Turnabout Dance held in the spring, followed a volleyball game be- tween the varsity basketball team and the faculty. Climaxing the year was the annual Mother-Daughter Banquet, with the announcements of the next year ' s offi- cers and cheerleaders. Sponsoring the club for this year was Mrs. Leon Mariska. Row 1 , L.

The previous Wildcat, painted by Dean Harig, had been removed when the floor was resurfaced. Other projects led by Presi- dent Scott Morris were selling theater student cards and sponsoring the Freshman Basketball Invitational Tourna- ment. The S-Club also picked candidates for Homecoming and Ed Weir Queen. S-Club is an organization made up of any boy who let- ters in any of the seven sports offered at SHS. It is sponsored by Mr. Gary Kile.

( ( We Build best describes the Key Club as its 34 members proved again to add quality to student life. The Key Clubbers, under the sponsorship of Mr. George Campbell and Mr. James Deaver, carried out such projects as the annual Heart Fund Drive. Other activities were to provide roses for hospital patients and to participate in a caroling party with the Y-Teens. The organization annually sponsors a SIOO scholarship for a graduating senior to further his education. This year Mr Campbell closed his career as Key Club sponsor, after 10 years of faithful service. .m Key CUib Members; Row 1 ; D. Jackson, D. Wilhams, L. Warneking, E. Mucklow, G. LiUich, L.

I Writing down ideas tor money-making projects is Carolyn Weber, secretary. Susan Miller, treasurer: Linda Hill, vice-president; Peggy Pettigrew, president, keep coming up with more and more ideas. ' I ' ve Gotta Be Me 5 ) was the tlieine for the Area III Fall Conference which Superior Y-Teens hosted on Nov. 17 and 18. Approxi- mately 300 girls and women attended. This song title also represents the goals of the Y-Teens through the year, as 80 members were helped to be me in a program which emphasizes improvement as a person, in relation with others, and in love of God. A get-acquainted picnic for the freshman girls before school started was followed by the annual Pen Party, at which the student body signs annuals and freshmen are en- tertained. Christmas spirits were shown by caroling at the various rest homes, in cooperation with other high school organi- zations. A Time for Us was the theme for the Sweetheart Dance held Feb. 14. Heart Sister Week also helped to cele- brate Valentine ' s Day. Franco Celeste, 1 1 , was sponsored by the Y-Teens. He is an orphan at the Taylor Orphanage in Italy. New officers and cabinet members were installed at the Spring Tea on May 1 1 . Mrs. Beth Bohling is sponsor. ; 32 Motivated to action a. I, Casting their votes for next year ' s Student Council officers are the 1969-70 officers Nancy Fuller, secretary, and Blaine Hansen, trea- surer. Steff Wallis. vice-president, and John Mullet, president, are receiving the ballots. the Student Council pioceeded lo build one of llie most itn- pressive record.s in years. After a tus.sle with extinction last year, election reforms were finally initiated at SHS. Election of officers by the student body decided upon after a poll among the students revealed widespread interest in the four council positions. Election requirements were sub.sequently overhauled by an amendment to the Student Council constitution. The newly-established norm lowered election requirements of council officers from this year ' s upper one-third to next year ' s upper one-half of the classes scholastically. A dress code was investigated by the council in which a poll was conducted among members of the PTA and the student body, where attitudes proved to be surprisingly con- servative. The suggestion box, voted into existence last year and installed this year, yielded a treasury of ideas. An honor study hall, offshoot of several suggestions concerning a student lounge, was looked into by the Council, which ex- plored all possibilities and presented them to the office for approval. Sponsoring four assembly programs, getting percentage grades on report cards, and promoting an SHS Legs Contest were other accomplishments of the council. Also researched was the possibility of rotating periods. eait tocele- id alike Of. Student Council Members: Row 1 ; J. Mullet, K. Bargen, K. Heitman, J. Bargen, B. Hale. Row 2; M. Todd, S. Wallis, N.

To begin the year the Superior FHA Chapter, with a total of 44 members, had a slumber party in a member ' s p;tsture to welcome the incoming freshman members. Around Christmas a Mist-a-Ree Supper was held with a mystery menu and surprising foods. The FHA also had a cooky packing party. Cookies were packed an d sent to boys in Vietnam for Christmas. FFA-FHA celebrated the New Year at Margi Todd ' s house playing games and giving skits. In April, members visited the Beatrice State Home and Martin Luther Home in Beatrice. Next year ' s officers represented the Superior Chapter at the State Convention in Lincoln.

Trying to figure out a page layout are Scott Morris and Margaret Ouy, who are members of both National Honor Society and Ouill ami SLroll. Amidst lighted candles representing character, service, leadership and scholarship, seven new members were introduced into the National Honor Society. Several weeks later at a dinner, several of the same stu- dents were also initiated into Quill and Scroll. Mrs. Lois Hunter, sponsor, conducted the Honor Society ceremony with the help of the five second-year members. The Honor Society is based on the qualities of character, leadership, service and scholarship. In order to qualify, a student must be in the upper one third of his class scholas- tically. and be elected by a majority vote of the faculty. Twelve new members wer e initiated into the Superior Chapter of Quill and Scroll by the old members. The cere- mony was held at a Journalism Banquet at the Hill Top Cafe. After the banquet, Mrs. Beth Bohling, sponsor, dis- tributed various awards to senior journalism students. Qualifications for a student to be a member include scholarship and participation in journalism. They are selected by the present members. National Honor Society Members: Sitting, M. Ouy, K.

Six plays were performed with To Burn a Witch named as the best play. Yvonne Yerton, Theresa Meier, Barb Shroyer and Jana Marr enacted this drama of a prison cell in Salem, Mass., in the 1600 ' s. Yvonne was named best actress and Gary Lillich, who played a crook in Two Crooks and a Lady, was chosen best actor. Jana received the runner-up award. Other plays presented were The Bond Between, Sun- day Costs Five Pesos, While the Toast Burned and Drag Race. Judges for tlie evening were Mr. Gordon Harper and the Rev. Don Stewart.

' L, ' 1 J HIGHLIGHTS ' Mad, mod world ' of 1969 was emphasized in activities wiiich began witii the traditional snake dance and pep rally on Thursday night, Oct. 16. On the same night, finishing touches were put on class floats, for which work had been limited to one week. The Homecoming Parade featured the madness and modness of today ' s world. Taking top honors in tloat com- petition was the freshmen ' s psychedelic presentation of the Mod Squad of SHS football stars . Juniors won second prize with a giant Wildcat tiptoeing through the Bears, while the seniors placed third with a mammoth fist enacting their Sock It To ' Em slogan. At half-time of the disappointing football game, Carolyn Koester and Calvin Meyer were crowned Homecoming Queen and King. First attendants were Peggy Ayres and Ken Heitman, second attendants, Peggy Pettigrew and Mark Diehl. Bringing the festivities to a close, the Homecoming Dance was held in the city auditorium, with the Pep Club and Red Caps as joint sponsors. Queen Candidates: Sandy Wehrman Cyntliia Higer, Carolyn Koester, Debbie Stone, Peggy Ayres and Peg- gy Pettigrew. King Candidates; Standing. Mark Diehl, Gary Lillich, Ken Heitman; Seated, John Mullet, Terry Zeigler and Calvin Meyer. 40 41 The joy of being selected is reflected in Carolyn Weber ' s face as she wears the crown and holds the roses symbolic of her reign over the Snowball Dance. Honoring the queen are attendants Becky Waddle and Lillie Morris. Themes, queens and a king were all a part of tlie annual Snowball and Sweetheart Dances, which were held in the North Ward Activity room. Winter Wonderland was the theme of the Snowball Dance, sponsored by the seniors. Carolyn Weber, sopho- more, reigned as queen on Dec. 19, 1969. A tall pink snowman stood in the center of the tloor under streamers of pink and green. Miniature pink snow- men, made of popcorn balls, were table centerpieces. Twelve seniors provided entertainment with The First Days of School . Valentine ' s Day, which came on a Saturday, proved to be an excellent date for the Y-Teen sponsored Sweetheart Dance. The theme, A Time for Us, was reflected through Romeo and Juliet silhouettes, cupids, hearts, and streamers of ice blue and mint green crepe paper. Debbie Stone and Randy Alexander were crowned queen and king in public ceremonies following the Sandy Creek basketball game preceding the dance. Attendants were Peggy Pettigrew, Cynthia Higer, Ken Heitman, and Doug Thomas. The Wilderness Road provided the music for the dan- ce.

A patio scene featuring rose vine swings and a wishing well completed the overall effect of the room decorations. Mike Johnson, master of ceremonies, broke the formality of the evening by presenting a lighter view. He introduced the student speakers, Linda Hill, junior class president; Ken Heitman, senior class president; and Dave Downing. Mr. George Campbell, physics and chemistry teacher, gave a farewell address, as he and his wife, Mrs. Minnie Campbell, librarian, were retiring. Special numbers presented by the Superior Singers added to the program of the banquet. Scarborough Fair, Aquarius, and 59th Street Bridge Song were well-re- ceived by their listeners. The evening was highlighted by the prom, featuring The Tiers, a combo from Omaha, who entertained the students and their guests from 9 to 1 2. Superior Singers present three selections for the juniors and their guests at the banquet. Among the selections was the Grammy Award winner Aquarius-Let the Sunshine In. Listening attentively to The Tiers are Mr. and Mrs. James Hunter, Mr. and Mrs. George Campbell and Mr. and Mrs. Gene Cestaro.

Mitch Jacoby receives congiatulations-and a trophy naming him the Defensive Player of the Year -from Coach Witty. Two Senior Athletes of the Year share the limelight at the All-Sports Banquet as Ken Heit- man and Terry Zeigler receive the trophies of their honor from Coach Kile. Selection made by vote of their fellow athletes resulted in a tie. Ed Weir. All-American athlete from Superior, presents the royal roses to Janet Braun, senior, chosen queen by the S-Oub. Her attendants are Linda Hill, junior; Bonnie Kleinsasser, sophomore, and Becky Waddle, freshman. Star athletes present and past were honored at traditional spring festiv- ities—the All-Sports Banquet sponsored by the Chamber of Commerce and the Ed Weir Track Meet. A tie in the voting for Senior Athlete of the Year re- sulted in two trophies being awarded— one to Terry Zeigler and the other to Ken Heitman. Zeigler is a four-letter man, having earned three monograms in fpotball, two each in basketball and track, and one in baseball. Heitman lettered four years in cross country and track, setting school records in both sports and a state Class B record in the two-mile. Mitch Jacoby was selected by the football coaches as De- fensive Player of the Year, and his name engraved on the traveling trophy. Earlier in the spring, a former SHS athlete was on hand to preside at the track meet held in his honor. Ed Weir pre- sented the roses to Queen Janet Braun, who, with her at- tendants, acted as his ambassadors to present medals to the winners. Blue Hill won the team trophy. Ken Heitman was Superior ' s only winner, with Dan Jackson and Rick Alexander placing second, and Paul Weber, Dale Gray, Gary Lillich, Jim Conger, and Randy Alexander accounting for other points. One of Queen Janet ' s duties is presenting medals to winners of the various races and field events. 47 A time for smiles and tears-that was Commencement Week, 1970, which culminated in graduation exercises on Tuesday, May 19. Varied thoughts ran through the minds of 67 seniors as they walked the length of the SHS gymnasium for the final time. Music by the clarinet quartet, some songs by the Super- ior Singers and it was time for the graduation speeches in which Nancy Headrick, Cynthia Higer, John Mullet and Randy Alexander elaborated on the class theme, A Time for Us. Stephanie Wallis was presented as valedictorian and Margaret Quy as salutatorian, with seven boys and one girl rounding out the list of the top ten. Mr. Leslie Alexander presented the diplomas as Principal Charles Haase announced the graduates and Superintendent Dale Mooberry stood by to congratulate them. The Rev. Robert J. Leege gave the invocation and benediction. On Sunday niglit, the Rev. Albert J. Kleinsasser delivered the baccalaureate sermon, with the Rev. Don T. Stewart presiding at the invocation and benediction. Special music was by the Mixed Chorus. Mrs. John Mills played the pro- cessionals for the graduation ceremonies. Senior Night, on Monday, was tiie occasion for the awarding of various honors, while scholarships were pre- sented during the commencement exercises. Kathy Robin- son read the class history on Senior Night, following music by tlie tlute trio and Senior Folk. 48 Mark Diehl and Randy Compton visit as they spend their last days as seniors at SHS.

Enthusiastic audiences watched during the evenings of Nov. 17 and 18 as the Class of 1971 presented their class play, THE STUCK POT. The play, presented in three acts and co-directed by Mr. John Mills and Mr. Gene Bniening, was the story of a dance for Jason Boy ' s School and Worthington Women ' s Academy. The boys from Jason, not overly enthusiastic at the idea of the annual dance, each chipped in 50 cents for a collec- tion to go to the boy who got stuck with the worst girl. The girls at Worthington heard about this and each donated a dollar to their own collection. They made themselves as repulsive as possible, with the prize going to the girl who danced with the boy from Jason who won that stuck pot. The resulting party was hilarious, causing gales of laugh- ter from the audience. As Mr. Sedgewick (Blaine Hansen) demonstrates his famous tee-off, Mrs. Sedgewick (Susie Miner) wishes he would shut up. J Dircaur Joliii Mills also gets a chance to act once in a while at re- hearsals.

The play was double-cast, giving everyone who tried out a chance to have a speaking part. Others were drafted for the mob scene. Sycamore Street citizens turn from average, quiet neigh- bors to a tense, determined mob when Joseph Blake, an ex-convict, and his family move in. Deciding that there is no place for the Blakes on their block, the good people of Sycamore Street plan to march on the Blake home and force them to leave. As the mob reaches the height of their anger, Blake stands up to them, assisted by quiet, thoughtful Arthur Hayes. Forced to realize what they are doing, the people come to their senses and leave the Blakes in peace. Carcilinc H;iycs (Cynthia Higcr) learns of the steps being taken against the Blakes from Mac (Gary Ulhch). Irnia (Janet Braiin) and Roger Morrison (Glenn Gacek). Caroline Hayes (Peggy Pettigrew) hugs her father, Artluir Hayes (John Mullet) after he has regained her confidence by standing up to the group threatening the Blakes. 54 A meddlesome neighbor (liigrid Peterson) tries to avoid trouble by warning llie Hhikes (Nancy Headriclc, Margo Eickmann and Randy Alexander) of the coming moh. Discussing the issue ot kicking the Blakes off Sycamore Street are neighbors Grace Denton (Jeanne FuUerton), Mrs. McAllister (Linda Thomas) and Clarice Morrison (Linda Powell). Frank Morrison (Rodney Deuel), leader of the mob on Sycamore Street, attempts to revive their hatred toward the Blakes and reaf- firm their purpose, but the group is beginning to realize the horror of what they planned to do.

The all-school musical MY FAIR LADY brought a few tears and much laughter to the captivated audience. It took many hours of practice and hard work from the stage crew, art department and student actors and actresses to make the Feb. 23 and 24 production possible. The plot centered around the almost impossible trans- formation of Eliza Doolittle from a Cockney flower girl to a lady. It took place in London, England in 19 1 2. Eliza ' s conversion first began as a hopeless wager be- tween Colonel Pickering and Henry Higgins, both linguistic experts. After many weeks of preparation, Eliza proved her- self worthy of being a lady only to be disregarded and for- gotten when congratulations were handed out. She left Hig- gins with the idea of marrying Freddy Eynsford-Hill, but in the end, Higgins realized he had Grown Accustomed to Her Face. The directors, Mr. Gordon Harper and Mr. John Mills, spent many hours coaching the students in Cockney and other English accents, and in vocal and instrumental scores. Approximately 100 students aided in various areas of the production, and made this delightful story a reality to theii watchers. % f After leaving Henry Higgins, Eliza (Kathy Robinson) visits his mo- ther (Nancy Headrick) for tea and tells other mistreatment. 56 ] rr ' I • 1 • «l 1 Li 1 te Freddy Eynsford-Hill sings On the Street Where you Live while waiting in front of Higgin ' s house for Eliza to appear.

Scott Morris, 59 ■ K f iW i py w 1 KliiS SPORTS U Quarterback Dayre Williams (10) prepares to hand the ball off in the Sandy Creek game. Inconsistent performances by SHS gridders led to a disheartening year. All told, the footballers compiled a record of 6 wins and 1 losses with one reserve game being postponed and never played. Playing time was made worthwliile in the varsity ' s dismal 3-6 season when backs Terry Zeigler and Gary Lillich and lineman Mitch Jacoby were named to the Southern Division of the Mid-Nebraska All-Tribland awards. SHS reserves went 2-1 on the year, but the team did what it was sup- posed to by getting the younger players some experience so they can slip up to the varsity ranks next year. Young talent was reflected in the Wildcat freshman team. Although only a 1-3 record prevailed, 24 year- lings got training in the fundamentals. 62 Defensive end Steve Henderson converges on a Central Catholic fumble as Mitch Jacoby (65) lends his assistance. Senior halfback Gary lillich stretches for a pass in the Fairbury game. Gary ' s efforts were in vain as the Wildcats lost 28-0. Ken Adams and Steve Bruns team up to bring down a Central Catholic Crusader, as Gary Lillich (22) awaits the outcome. 63 The season opened with a joyous note when the Wildcats defeated the Sandy Creek Cougars. The next week ended in frustration for Coach Witty ' s boys as they traveled to Minden and came out on the short side of the contest. The so-called jinx with the Aurora Huskies continued the next week when the highly touted Huskies blew into Brodstone Memorial Stadium and soundly defeated the Wildcats. The next two games the Wildcats put everything to- gether and showed off all the potential that they had kept hidden the previous games. The Sutton Mustangs invaded SHS ' s home field and the Wildcats gave them a rude greet- ing. The first play from scrimmage, senior halfback Gary Lillich romped 66 yards to pay dirt. The Cats went on to smother the Mustangs, 32-6. Grand Island Northwest was next. The Wildcats ended the Viking ' s Homecoming celebration; without a doubt it was the best game of the year. The Cats brought forth some hidden talent when the score was tied and Dayre Williams threw a touchdown pass to Steve Hendersen with two sec- onds in the half. The Cats exploded for 30 points in the third quarter; senior Terry Zeigler led the way with two touchdowns. Next week the bomb fell in the form of the Hebron Bears. With the Wildcats leading at half 8-0, the Bears came back ready to play and the game developed from a de- fensive battle to a high-scoring affair. Again SHS traveled to Grand Island to take on the Cen- tral Catholic Crusaders. This was a disheartening loss. After trailing 14 points with less than two minutes in the game, the Crusdaers came back to win by one point. The next two weeks spelled disaster. The Wildcats traveled to Fairbury on Halloween night; coupled with ankle deep mud, the host Jeffs soundly defeated the Wild- cats. The final game of the year with Geneva, the Cats hit the lowest note of the season when the Wildcats from Geneva belted SHS in a game which decided the winner of the southern half of the Mid-Nebraska Conference. Superior Coach William Witty looks on de- jectedly as his Wildcats battle tlie Tairbury Jeffs. The scoreboard retlccts his mood. Senior Halfback Terry Zeigler breaks away from a would-be tackier for a substantial gain in the Homecoming contest against Hebron.

Calvin Meyer recovered tlie ball in the end zone for a Wildcat 2-point conversion. I Disheartened, Mitch Jacoby leaves the field after a mud bath with Uie Fairbury Jeffs. Young cats tried tlieir luck on tlie gridiron witii the help of Coaeh Don Wilson, junior varsity; and Coaches Al Klassnjeyer and Gene Cestaro, freshmen. Coach Wilson ' s junior varsity squad had a fine season, holding a 2-1 record. The young Cats started their season on on a winning note by beating Harvard, 28-0. Wildcat against Wildcat proved disastrous for Superior when the team fell to Geneva 14-32. Ending the season the way they started, the young Cats beat the Hebron Bears, 14-6. The last scheduled game of the 1969 season with Fairbury was postponed because of poor field conditions. The SHS freshman football squad followed the trend of this year ' s football team at SHS by losing more than they won. Coaches Klassmeyer and Cestaro felt that the main principle behind freshman football was to teach the boys the fundamentals of the game so the boys will be able to slip up to reserve or varsity next year. The season opened on a bright note when the frosh soundly defeated the Mankato, Kan. freshmen. The first contest proved no reflection of what was to come, because the young Cats dropped their last three ball games to Fair- bury, Hebron, and Red Colud.

Senior Terry Zcigler attempts to steal the ball from a Crete Cardinal in first round action of District play at DeWitt. 68 of He Whew sighs Senior Mark Mooberry as he watches one of his free throws go down during District basketball action. Guts, pride, determination is how Head Coacli Gary Kile described his Wildcats after they suffered an overtime loss at the hands of highly ranked Fairbury in the district semi-finals. Those few words and a never-say-dio attitude, coupled with Mr. Kile ' s coaching abilities, spelled out the Wildcats ' success this past season. Losing four starters frotn last year ' s 13-6 ball club, this year ' s team was predicted to win only two or three games, but the running, pressing, always-hustling Wildcats had something to say about that. They ended the season with a 12-7 record-only one game off last year ' s team. The Wildcats went into the Hastings College Christmas Tournament and lost to York in the first round but beat G. I. Northwest to gain 3rd place. Seeded third in the con- ference tournament, Superior ran into a hustling Grand Island Crusader team and was taken out the first night. This was only one of two conference losses tagged on the Wildcats all year, the other was a heartbreaker-a 71-69 double-overtime loss to the Geneva Wildcats. Superior finished second in the conference. With their record stand- ing at 6-6, the hustling Cats won their last six games in a row. The victims included Sutton, Franklin, Red Cloud, Central Catholic, Sandy Creek and Crete. This year ' s Wildcat season was highlighted when Steve Bruns was selected to the second team of the all-class ALL- TRIBLAND and Mark Mooberry was given honorable men- tion.

Central Catholic 64 Head Coach Gary Kile makes sure he gets a point across to his Wildcats during a tense mo- ment in Superior ' s win over Crete, defending Class B State Champions 1969. 71 Best in SHS history was the 12-2 season mark posted by this year ' s reserves, with almost all sophomores on Coach Gene Cestaro ' s start- ing five. The reserves out-scored their opponents by 15 points per game. Coach Cestaro attributed this to the well-bal- anced scoring attack. Shifting four juniors and his five sophomores around so that no opponent could concentrate on just one player was another tactic that Coach Cestaro used to dismay his opponents. The double overtime victory over the Aurora Huskies rated as the team ' s biggest accomplishment. Under Freshman Coach Al Klaasmeyer, the SHS frosh captured their own invitational tournament by downing Sandy Creek and Hebron. After having lost to both of these teams in the regular season, they out-scored them 62-47 and 57-37, respectively. With a season record of 5-5, the team prepared the frosh for extra duties next year when they will have to step up to the reserve ranks. Many of the games were lost because of freshman mis- takes, stated Mr. Klaasmeyer, but as the season progressed, so did the boys, and some of the rookie season jitters be- gan to wear off.

The Cats gave York a 20-point spot due to forfeits, and came back to win 30-28. Winners in tiie contest were seniors Rick Nelson. Kirk Grove and Varyl Doehring. juniors Mike Kraus, Steve Laird and Jim Barton and soplio- more Jeff Compton. Later the Cats wrestled a tough Deshler team to a de- cision. Finishing their season with a 1-1-8 record for the 1969- 70 campaign. Senior Varyl Doerhing. three time state com- petitor, was decisioned in the state quarterfinals. Twelve members of Coach Don Wilson ' s team earned letters: Seniors Varyl Doehring, Rick Nelson, Randy Meyer and Kirk Grove, juniors Mike Kraus, Steve Laird and Jim Barton, sophomores Jeff Compton, Mike Utecht, Jim Con- ger and Craig Wulf. and Howard Thompson, the only fresh- man to earn a monogram. Bill Willett and Duane Woerner earned letters as student managers. Senior grapplcr Varyl Doehring shows his style which enabled him to go to State and finish witli a 10-3-1 season record.

Taking a cross country workout are Dale Gray, Ed Hall, Bob Lowery Dean Ehlers and John Mullet. Ken Heitman breaks the tape far ahead of the field to end his high school running career by setting a new two-mile Qass B record at tlie State Track Meet. Ken ' s time was 9:54.4. Earlier in the season he he had won the Kearney Invitational on the same track. 76 i Superior ' s contender in the mile run, Dan Jackson, takes second in tlie Ed Weir. A coveted honor of ranking first in state was attained by Ken Heitnian in his last competition as a high school runner. Kenny, who led both the track and cross country teams, barely qualified for his favorite two-mile by finishing third at district, but came back to set a new Class B state meet record of 9;54.4 under the direction of Coach Gary Kile. Previously Ken had finished his fourth cross country sea- son by coming in second in the state meet in the fall. In track, Gary Lillich also succeeded in setting a school mark. He recorded a time of 1 1 .3 seconds in the 100-yard low hurdles to establish the best time in SHS history. Although the Wildcats failed to place high in a major meet, they should be stronger ne.xt year as 9 of 1 2 letter- men return. Randy Alexander, who competed in the sprints, was the other senior lettering besides Ken and Gary. Others who earned monograms were Steve Bruns, Dan Jackson, Rick Alexander, Rob Applegate, Jim Conger, Dale Gray, Bob Lowery, Joe Kinyoun and Paul Weber. Coach Kile ' s cross country squad performed much bet- ter team-wise as they managed to win their second consecu- tive Mid-Nebraska Conference crown. Besides Ken, senior Dean Ehlers and sophomores Dale Gray, Bob Lowery and Ed Hall added enough depth to pro- vide for a successful cross country campaign. ;i- •Kill 11 Holding the 2 which symbolizes his placing in the State Cross Country Meet.

Home run, fly ball were added to the spring sports vocabulary as baseball made its first appearance in the SHS sports scene, accompanying golf and track. Completing the season with a 6-4 record, the baseball team made it to the finals of the district tournament, where they were defeated by the same Grand Island Central Cath- olic team which was responsible for all four of the season ' s losses. The Wildcats defeated Sandy Creek. Guide Rock. Byron and Sutton. Coaches Don Wilson and Al Klaasmeyer collaborated in guiding the 1 1 boys who participated in the school ' s first venture into baseball. With the Superior Golf Course under construction for the installation of grass greens, the SHS golfers had trouble getting in practice time. Coach William Witty ' s linksters finished poorly in each of their meets, but three underclassmen are expecting to put their experience to good use next year. Senior Mark Mooberry was the only upperclassman to earn a monogram. Others who lettered were sophomores Roy Harig and Dave Ridle and freshman Jim Richardson.

Kenny Heitman, be putting in the suggestion box, wonder John Mullet, treasurer; Calvin Meyer, secretary; and Janet Braun, vice president. are what the Class of 1970 face as they leave SHS. In their final year of apprenticeship, seniors accepted leadership, duties, and responsibilities when they sponsored the annual Snowball Dance, presented a class play, and il- lustrated their appreciation for music and action by com- posing half of the cast of the musical, MY FAIR LADY. The seniors also led scholastically. Throughout the 1969- 70 school year, they had the largest number of students to acquire honor roU grades. Being honored at the Junior-Senior Banquet and Prom was one of the highlights for the seniors. It proved to be a big change from last year ' s prom, when they were the hosts. Sponsors Mrs. Minnie Campbell, Mr. Gerald Wooters and Mr. Charles Haase assisted the class during their last year at SHS. These 69 graduates are the reflections of the past de- cade. But what ' s more important, they are the new images for the 1970 ' s. Last minute studies are completed before Christmas vacation by Carolyn Koester, Linda Karmazin, Peggy Pettigrew, and Linda Thomas. 82 I I I i Row 1, Kenneth Adams. Randy Alexander. Peggy Ayres.

By choosing neither round nor square class rings, the ju- niors broke away from the usual. Their ring, called the Olympian. had an oval stone as the background for a torch, with four prongs, each symbolizing a year of high school. Also, for the first time in recent SHS history, four girls were chosen as junior class officers. Being received well by the audiences and considered a complete financial success was the junior class play, THE STUCK POT. Fine acting and the absurdity of the hectic situation brought peals of laughter from all who viewed. The class float, Tip-toe Thru the Bears, won second place in the Homecoming competition. The juniors chose Moonlight and Roses as the theme for the Junior-Senior Banquet and Prom. The Tiers provided the music for the prom. Sponsors for the class this year were Mrs. Lois Hunter, Mr. Gene Bruening, Mr. Don Wilson and Mr. Gene Cestaro. Junior class officers: Susan Miller, vice-pres- ident; Barb Smith, treasurer; DeAnn Thorn- ton, secretary; and Linda Hill, president; give a sigh of relief as they survive one more class meeting.

' Sophomore Jinx ' is no way to describe SHS ' s class of ' 72. Fourteen sopho- mores lettered in football, and they also formed the nucleus of a 1 2-2 junior varsity basketball team. Their candidate at the Snowball Dance, Carolyn Weber, also honored the class by being chosen as the reigning queen. The sophomores weren ' t as lucky in Homecoming float competition, however, as their Tear ' Em To Pieces didn ' t place. Under the direction of class sponsors. Miss Margo Gli- ster and Mr. William Witty, the Class of ' 72 had many money-raising projects throughout the year. Among these were a bake sale held at the Central Catholic basketball game and a girls basketball game in which they narrowly defeated the junior female cagers.

Proving a worthy class by taking first place in the Homecoming float competition with their winning tlieme, Mod Squad Skins the Bears, the freshman class set out to conquer the halls of SHS. The ' 73 ' ers started their high school years out right by having a good record of attendance and by having 26 per cent of the students on the honor roll. At the annual Snowball dance, the class was represented by Becky Waddle as Queen candidate. Even though the freshmen were new to SHS, they found themselves belonging to many of the extra-curricular activ- ities, sucii as sports, music, and the many organizations.

Gerald 9,33 102 Looking around the old home grounds It ' s almost sad to leave We see the old familiar places But they lack familiar faces The study halls where we had such fun And the classrooms clad in memory They seem deserted for a thousand years Doors locked, teachers gone away— The chalkboards clean and silent now The halls are strangely still Peer into the rooms now void And recall long hours there Remember when this echoing gym Resounded to rousing cheers? Time now flown so swiftly by As we leave the hallowed halls of learning And turn to look one last time As Superior High sits silent, seemingly dreaming. Lee Ray And with these reflections on the past year we give you our book. WILDCAT ' 70. We wish to express our apprecia- tion to all who helped in the production of the yearbook. Special thanks to Terry Zeigler for editing most of the sports copy, Lee Ray for composing the poetry in our opening and closing sections, and Mrs. Beth Bohling for all the help and assistance she gave us in meeting our deadlines. r 0C O ■e ss .
