A Time to Learn Students are involved in learning, in collecting facts, in weighing information, in listening to others. Students are also involved in teaching, in transmitting that which they themselves so recently learned, in presenting a new side of an old picture. Teachers are involved in teaching, in dispel- ling information, in presenting students with a different point of view, in helping students learn to judge for them- selves Teachers are also involved in learning, in listening to the opinions of those younger and perhaps more idealistic than themselves, in realizing that age is not necessarily knowledge, in examining their own opinions in the light of their students ' views. ii; i=!?3 ' MHr ' niBi -3 rla ' l ' • ■fhiii {1 ' UW ijiiwiv wwJi ;i;;i.; ttiiuiiii; JrUkJDtsjsth mbiaoHoiio . f ,« (, If Before the School Board meeting begins, Dr. Ted Kiekhafer, president, and Dale D. Mooberry, secretary, go over the order of business. School Board members Don Meyer, Vernon Johnson and Keith Deuel consider suggestions for the Superior Schools budget at the monthly School Board meeting. Discussing the SHS dress code with Charles E. Haase (center) are School Board mem- bers Leslie Alexander and Marshall Vale. 10 FT ' mm m ii nMUm Men Provide the Foundation itfton As SHS students present their proposed dress code, Principal Charles E. Haase listens in- tently at the parent-faculty-student dress code meeting in the library. Superior High School— a complex system designed to provide the best possible education for the 280 stu- dents who daily fill its halls. It ' s a complicated system and it takes a number of men to keep it running smoothly. Eight men provide the foun- dation for the functioning of the sys- tem, and these men were asked what they thought high school should pro- vide for the students. Mr. Charles E. Haase, principal, whose role is that of a chief adminis- trator, provides general supervision of the teachers and pupils and controls the organization of the curriculum and the over-all school program. Mr. Haase feels that high school should provide a general education in all basic academic fields, as well as a degree of readiness to enter the vocational field of one ' s choice. Mr. Dale D. Mooberry, superinten- dent, implements the policies of the Board of Education and serves in a liaison capacity between the board and the students, other administrators, faculty, and the community. Students should get two things out of their four years in high school, according to Mr. Mooberry. First and foremost, they should get the best education possible according to their educational opportunities and their own applica- tion to their studies; and secondly, they should get some preparation, both educationally and socially, for the world they will enter upon graduation. The Superior Board of Education, whose purpose is to provide an edu- cation suitable for the community, also acts as an advisory council to assist the teachers, pupils and parents, and acts on the financial matters of the school. Mr. Leslie Alexander, a member of the board, also believes that students leaving high school should have prepared themselves for either higher education or a place in society. Engaged in one of his daily jobs, Mr. Haase fills out admit slips. Superintendent Dale D. Mooberry laughs at a comment made by one of the School Board mem- bers, just before the monthly board meeting gets underway. 11 mtarr r rrr fr;r Kmm[f i si s T -y)t .:ri-:, .:,;;]: ' ijij;p;: -,-; r-l S ,r ' :i.--i5trtj; ' -i-SHyp;; rVH ' : ; ' ;. ■2™ ' ? — S -- -T - inc-iii-- I ' lsiia- Jr ' SHS guidance counselor, Mr. Gerald Wooters, interprets to Linda Noren the significance of her Differential Aptitude Test results. Specialists Stress Communication Communication is essential in to- day ' s world, stated Mr. Al Klass- meyer, speech therapist, who, along with Mrs. Bernice Hansen, special reading teacher and Mr. Gerald Woo- ters, guidance counselor, said that helping students to communicate is an important purpose of each of their jobs. Today, kids can ' t get by with isolating the mselves, because they are always in contact with others. Every- one has to use speech every day, declared Mr. Klassmeyer, who worked with high school, junior high and grade school students. He said he en- joyed his work because he likes young people and finds that helping them correct their speech problems and seeing the results, no matter how small is very worthwhile. According to Mrs. Hansen, It is necessary for todays student to read with the greatest proficiency possible, whether he is college bound or not. Mrs. Hansen tries to diagnose the reading problem of a student, and then help him to improve his reading ability, learning and application of skills. Like Mr. Klassmeyer, she spent much of her time working with junior high students. As guidance counselor, Mr. Woo- ters identified his main purpose as helping students understand their po- tentials and work toward fulfilling them. He also tries to help them ad- just to school and develop skills for dealing more successful with the problems they will encounter upon leaving high school. In order to help students, counseling has to be a coop- erative effort of all my colleagues, the parents and the students, Mr. Woo- ters added. It ' s always important to remember what you read, explains Mrs. Bernice Hansen, special reading, to Dave Dillon. 4 Speech therapist, Mr. Al Klassmeyer, finds amusement In a play during the SHS fresh- man basketball game against Blue Hill. 12 ■s s Staff Enjoys Contact with Youth nkRitai mtim,  . Janitors Mr. Ted Enghoff, Mr. Earl Hoskins and Rev. Gorman Foley, work at repairing the risers for the vocal music department. I enjoy working with kids, was the first response the secretaries, cooks and janitors gave to the ques- tion, What do you enjoy most about your job? I like working with 302 different personaUties and watching each indi- vidual one in action, stated Mrs. Dee Krotzinger, who serves as secretary to Principal Charles E. Haase. She is also in charge of selling lunch tickets, typ- ing the announcements three times a week, doing odd jobs for the students and at times she ' s even called upon to take roll for an absent teacher. Mrs. Darlene Peterson, secretary to Superintendent Dale D. Mooberry, likes to attend all the school activities like class plays, music concerts and football and basketball games. She also keeps the activity accounts, and assists Mrs. Krotzinger with the selling of lunch tickets. It ' s real rewarding to cook food which the students enjoy eating, de- clared Mrs. Gerald Cox, who, along with Mrs. Dean McGowan and Mrs. Dale Young, prepares the noon meal every day. Mrs. McGowan added, This has been an exceptional school year for us because we have the nicest bunch of students working with us in the kitchen. Custodian Earl Hoskins, who, with Rev. Gorman Foley and Mr. Ted Enghoff, maintains the high school plant, echoed her assessment: The majority of the students are good peo- ple and they appreciate and take good care of the school. Secretary Mrs. Darlene Peterson, looks on as Mrs. Dee Krotzinger sells Rejean Grove a lunch ticket. SHS cooks Mrs. Gerald Cox, Mrs. Dale Young and Mrs. Dean McGowan follow their daily rou- tine by washing the dishes after the noon meal.

Watching attentively, William Witty listens to the EngUsh 10 class discussion. 14 iisttiiiiV ' al J English — Essential to Students aim. £ Clapping to the beat of a cheer. Miss Doris Eakens, English 11 and 12, shows her en- thusiasm at the Homecoming pep rally. In these days of questioning and challenging the structure of our present school system, students are asking, Why should I have to take English? What good is it going to do me? The English teachers of SHS agree that English is relevant to students of today. Enghsh is a required subject be- cause it has to do with communi- cation—and that ' s the name of the game in human relations. English is concerned with learning to understand what others write and say, and learn- ing to write or speak so that your thoughts can be understood by others. No matter what type of life one chooses, he must be able to express himself verbally or in writing. It does no good to have knowledge if we are unable to communicate. Enghsh in any high school is taught with two things in mind— to pre- pare for college and to prepare one for everyday life. A person must have a thorough background in grammar, hterature and composition when enter- ing college, and people entering the outside world must have the ability to speak correctly in order to get and hold a job. ' Appreciation ' is probably one of the most important reasons for re- quiring English, but enjoyment, com- munication, meaning and values all come from literature as well. Will this headline fit? asks Candy Stark, feature editor of the FLASHLIGHT, of Mrs. Beth Bohling who spends much of her time advising the Journalism II students. You can ' t hardly tell the boys from the girls today because of the long hair, criti- cizes a hillbilly visiting a big city in a speech given by David Ohmstede in one of Mrs. Bohling ' s speech classes. 15 Mr. Wesley Sumpter, social sciences, looks over Dayre Williams ' notes for his panel dis- cussion on capital punishment. C2H3O2 is the chemical formula for acetic acid, explains Mr. Jerry Schroeder, sciences, to chemistry students Bob Lowery and Don Duncan. i Let X be the airplane speed and Y be the wind speed, directs Mr. Robert Shaw, mathematics, in an explanation to the algebra class. Hal:, 16 psR Bi :ii £« lMMWiiiMMi Sciences Create Social Alertness m mAio Be sure to remember that a crayfish is a common crustacean, explains Mr. Gary Jack- son, sciences, to the biology class. There ' s more to life than just making a Hving. This is the philoso- phy of the teachers in the SHS science departments, expressed by Mrs. Lois Hunter, math teacher. The importance of math and science in everyday life is stressed by the in- structors. Mathematics is one of the most important aspects of society, asid Mr. Robert Shaw. We live in a scientific culture, commented science teacher Mr. Jerry Schroeder. His curriculum, he said, emphasizes basic scientific principles and their application, so that students can acquire a better knowledge of the world. Mr. Gary Jackson, who has more than one-third of SHS ' s students in his science and biology classes, ex- plained that he tries to teach the stu- dent awareness of his physical and biological surroundings by showing the relationship of man to nature and , r-i . ' lass- Mrs. Lois Hunter, mathematics, explains to Jim Siebeckei the proper method for working Tiathematical induction problems. machines. The inter-relation and inter-de- pendency of math and science are also considered important by the teachers. Mathematics underlies nearly every kind of occupation, said Mrs. Hun- ter. Every new invention or techno- logical advance has foundations in math. The math instructors also believe that mathematics is valuable in other ways than just enabling the student to perform arithmetic problems. What courses in math a student takes are really unimportant, said Mr. Shaw. The important thing is that students learn reasoning and thinking from solving problems. The same reasoning processes also play a large part in the social sciences, according to Mr. Wesley Sumpter. I want the students to be able to draw their own conclusions about world problems, he said. For a lab experiment, physiology students Candy Stark, Janet McNabb, Steve Bruns and Blaine Hansen run in pl ce to increase their heart rate, so they can record their change in pulse after vigorous exercise. 17 Mrs. Margaret Clabaugh, business, watches her students for correct posture and hand position as they begin to type Lesson 12. Dennis Tucker and Dale Baumbach work on their individual projects in industrial arts class. Mr. Gene Bruening, industrial arts, helps sand the drawer of Colin Sumpter ' s coffee table. 18 -- ' ' Mrs. Eleanor Harriger, home ec. looks over her schedule for the upcoming day. Mrs. David Walters demonstrates proper child care to the freshman home economics class, using her son Michael as an example. 3 Vo Arts Prepare for the Future Skills which are of both immediate and long-term benefit to students are the province of the vocational arts classes. With 15 and 12 years, respectively, in their departments, Mrs. Eleanor Harriger and Mr. Gene Bruening have adjusted the programs of the home- making and industrial arts classes to fit the needs of the day. Happy and successful living begins in the home. Everyone lives in a home and no matter what career is pursued, living in the home is the vital influence on life; therefore every young man and woman should learn to make their present home as well as the home in their future, one of positive influence, states Mrs. Harriger. She feels the Consumer-Homemaking department can fulfill this goal. In his drivers ed classes as well as those in woodworking, Mr. Bruening also stresses skills which the students can use at once and throughout their lives-from driving a car to producing their own furniture. Also in tune with the times and the need of their students are Mrs. Margaret Clabaugh, business, and Mr. Jerry Warner, vocational agriculture. Secretarial skills are very worth- while to high school students, for they make it possible for them to obtain secretarial work immediately out of high school, whether they are interest- ed in supplying a living for themselves or in providing part time payment dur- ing additional training, declares Mrs. Clabaugh. She believes that bookkeep- ing and general business classes are also important, for they help students fit into the complex financial world of record-keeping which they will soon enter. Mr. Jerry Warner said he hopes that his vocational agriculture classes will give students wide enough introduc- tion in the different vocations, so that it will be easier for them to pick their lifetime vocations. He also states, The training students receive in vocational agriculture will be used throughout their Ufe.

Students Find Contest Exciting Windows covered with hanging uni- forms, a horn in the aisle, pillows and sack lunches, and about 35 nervous music students. This was the scene of a packed bus on its way at 6 a.m. for a two-hour drive to music contest. Once at Milford students headed for their homeroom, and those nervous band members who were scheduled for solos quickly assembled their instru- ments and began practicing. The two other buses which had left the school at 7:30 finally arrived to bring the to- tal number of Superior kids participat- ing to 93. Solos and ensembles proceeded, al- though not without hitches, including a conflict in scheduling which required several of the vocal music girls to per- form at the school and in a nearby church at nearly the same time. De- spite this problem, lost music and groups running behind schedule, the soloists and groups performed their selections, and came through with Hugo Westphal, Susie Miller, Jeanne Welbourn, the Stage Band, the Wood- wind Choir, and the Percussion Ensem- ble all earning superior ratings (1). During the slack time when no one was performing, students gathered on the patio to listen to a musical group made up of students from several schools, including Don Scripter on electric bass and Dennie Tucker on drums. The opinions of musical directors, Mr. Gordon Harper, vocal, and Mr. Bill Dietz, instrumental, varied on the im- portance of contest. Mr. Harper said, Contest and giving performances are not really the most important thing in music. Instead it is to try to create mu- sic and to get the students to feel mu- sic. Taking the opposite view, Mr. Dietz feels that contest is the highlight of the school year, because it gives students a chance to compare them- selves with other schools. Both instructors agreed that music involves more than just sound and notes, that it involves feeling and being able to express emotion with music. They both feel that if they can teach a student to feel some emotion fro m playing or singing a song, then they have accomplished something. Mi. Bill Dietz, band director, surveys the trumpet section of his band as they seat themselves for the customary first day of school lecture on rules and regulations. During a musical rehearsal, Mr. Gordon Har- per, music director, raises his arm as a signal for the orchestra to hold their note. Finding themselves with nothing to do at music contest, Dennie Tucker and Kim Doehring en- tertain themselves with a cymbal solo and conversation. 20 ft dtpE stepping in time to the music Man of La Manchia the SHS marching band performs duAng the American Legion Parade at Superior.

In my opinion, she explained, art is not a place for students to learn to draw a picture, but a place where you could learn to transform ideas into being with your own hands. Also included in the regular curricu- lum this year was the study of Art His- tory and the writing of a term paper about the art during a certain time in history. Expressions in art ranged from stan- dard oil paintings to sculptured and plaster castings of the student ' s own face. The students came through with prize winning entries in art contests.

Sounds of arrows whizzing by and searches for lost arrows which missed the target filled the PE classes for sev- eral weeks when archery was intro- duced into the curriculum. Other new sports which occupied the students were field hockey, and badminton. Coach Gary Kile, boys PE, feels that PE provides a way for boys who aren ' t in sports to stay in shape, and helps to develop their self-confidence. Girls PE provides the girls with a method for staying active and helps them to develop gracefulness and coor- dination, as well as providing a break in studying, according to Miss Linda Georgis. She also feels that PE teaches the girls responsibility and helps them learn to get along with others. 24 naiii I Lighting the candle of scholarship, Susan Miller explains one of the ideals on which National Honor Society is based. Uaii leaches sihem NHS Inducts Ten New Members The music starts to play. Calmly, dressed in a red robe, she rises from her chair and starts down the stairs. Suddenly the SHS students become very quiet as they wonder and antici- pate what will happen next. Many questions race through the minds of juniors and seniors, particularly. Who is she going to tap? Why is she walking down that aisle? Will I be next? Finally ten juniors and seniors are seated on the stage, listening, as Mar- tha Bohling, Susan Miller, and Linda Hill, the hold-over members, light the candles of leadership, character, schol- arship, and service, which the National Honor Society is based upon. Mrs. Lois Hunter, sponsor, adminis- ters the oath: I pledge to uphold the ideals of the National Honor Society; to build a strong character in myself and others; to further the advancement of scholarship; . . . Afterwards Nancy Fuller, Blaine Hansen, Dan Jackson, Carol Hudson, Jan Wilton, David Downing, Monica Braun, Cindy Oltman, David Ridle, and Wayne Howe, the new members, join their parents who have been sit- ting behind the stage during the whole ceremony and they walk to the home economics room for a tea with the fac- ulty members. This was the 1971 induction cere- mony for the National Honor Society. I pledge to uphold the high ideals of National Honor Society, repeat the new members as Mrs. Hunter swears them into the society at the annual induction ceremonies. Thrill at being chosen is reflected in Cindy Oltman ' s face as she smiles at Martha Bohl- ing, who has come to escort her to the stage. 25 Lillian Morris uses tlie lab microscope to study a recently acquired blood sample.

Job Training Stimulates Interest They run out of the school, hop in to their cars, start up the motors, and drive away. No, school isn ' t out, these seniors are going various places to ob- serve in the job training program initi- ated this year. All of the participants said they found job training a great experience because it gave them a chance to find out what they were really interested in. The program was open to all seniors with a particular interest in a certain field. After getting permission from the office and the place of business, the students spent one study hall peri- od a day in observation. Some com- pleted observation at the end of four weeks; others continued for as long as twelve weeks. If I hadn ' t had the opportunity to participate in job-training, I would have gone to school with the wrong outlook on my future occupation, declared Randy Vaupel, who got an insight into the work of a hospital technician, as did Terry Norgaard. Planning to major in speech pathol- ogy and audiology, Martha Bohling be- lieves that observmg the speech thera- pist showed her the practical side of a job instead of romanticizing about it. Nursing was the most popular occu- pation at the beginning of the pro- gram, but became unpopular at the end. If I hadn ' t taken job training, I probably would have gone to nursing school and then found out I didn ' t en- joy it, explained Yvonne Yerton. Jean Kinyoun and Dee Thornton also changed their minds about entering the nursing profession. But Janet McNabb and Linda Hill, after observing at the hospital for six weeks, still plan to be nurses, along with Lillian Morris, who hopes to be a nurse ' s aid. The reason I ' m getting a lot out of the program is because the men I work with are nice enough to explain the how and why we do a certain thing, stated Roy Rempe who observed at Christensen and Son, Inc. Diane Rogers and Cindy Kottmeyer, whose training was at the Security Na- tional Bank, believe this program gave them prac tical experience which will help in getting a job after high school. Deeply intent on his work, Randy Vaupel tries to master intravenous injections. 27 Rii!it: ff§lE Deb Hansen walks across the stage for the third time to receive the SEA Scholarship from president Mr. Jerry Warner.

Class History Senior Night, May 17, 1971 Many of us were born in Superior, and have lived here all our lives. Some of us were born as far away as California and have lived here only a short time. Some of us are radicals, rebelling against tradition. Some of us are quiet and content. Among us there are musical, athletic, poetic, mathematic, dramatic and intelli- gent people. We are individual, each of us is unique. And at the same time we are united. We call ourselves the class of ' 71 . Maybe our class looks like any other. But I ' m sure you ' ll agree that there is something about our class that sets us apart from all the rest. We have done things no other class has ever thought of doing. What other class ever had a Fantastic Four? Mike Johnson, Dave Downing, Randy Vaupel, and Jim Siebecker make up our Fantastic Four. Few of us will forget the day they flew the American Eagle kite at noon on the patio. Although most say it was the wind that sent the kite crashing to the ground, Mike Johnson insists it was the Fascist Pig Establishment that seeded the clouds . . . How many classes do you know that ever had amateur jugglers? Mike Johnson will always be remembered as one of the better jugglers of the senior class. And this may not be true, but it is written that Dave Downing was walking down the hall with his books under his arm, juggling with one hand, and he fell down and broke his tooth out . . .

Striving to achieve these goals from its creed and to mold better future farmers, the FFA worked during the 70-71 year. Working on various pro- jects, including farming different crops, working with livestock, and doing various jobs to gain work ex- perience, the FFA member prepared themselves for the local, district, and state contests.

The first purpose is to grow as a person. The members of Y-Teens use the duties as committee members to develop responsibility, to learn to work with others, to form a more rounded outlook on hfe, and to grow as a young woman. The second purpose is to grow in the understanding of others. Through World Fellowship, Y-Teens learn to help friends recognize the needs of others. The third purpose is to grow in the love of God.

Scattered throughout the room, groups of stu- dents talk, study, and daydream. Seated at one table, students share a box of popcorn as they discuss drugs, Woodstock or last night ' s party. At another table students work on matrix problems for math, or term papers for English. And in yet another corner of the room a girl in slacks stares vacantly into space, dreaming of college, gradu- ation, or next Saturday ' s dance. After much work by the ' 70- ' 71 Student Council, and those of past years, an Honor Study Hall was finally established. The Study Hall is moni- tored by Stu. Co. members, and any junior or senior not on the down list can use it once a day during one of his study halls. The Honor Study Hall has proven successful in providing a calm and peaceful atmosphere in which stu- dents can relax and unwind from mounting school pressure. Another milestone was reached by the Student Council as they organized the first meeting ever between the SHS students and administration. The pur- pose was to discuss the school dress policy. After conducting several meetings between parents, faculty members and students, three Stu. Co. members pre- sented the proposed dress code to the School Board. Many compromises were made and the School Board adopted a new dress code. Besides working on new projects, the Student Council performed their yearly duties of sponsoring school assemblies, collecting for March of Dimes, and conducting Future Fresh- man Day. A break from the routine of school is taken by students as they enjoy candy and music in the Honor Study Hall.

F J A , i H Highlights A Time To Enjoy ... A Time To Treasure Highlights are special times. The times meant to be en- joyed for an evening and treasured for a lifetime. Home- coming, Prom, Class Play-these are the things from high school most remembered. What makes them so special? All the excitement of some- thing new and out of the ordinary helps. The special music and special dresses and special atmosphere heighten the ef- fect. And remembering all of the work that it took to pro- duce that float, or decorate the cafeteria, or present a play adds a glow of satisfaction to the memory. But what really makes these times special are the people who share them with you. Your classmates and friends those who helped with all the preparations, and those who livened up the evening with their friendships. These are the things that make memories special. KnKEjirsaimsa Bifesi Rally Highlights Homecoming We are the Wildcats! Mighty, mighty Wild- cats! shout SHS students as they show their spirit at the Thursday night pep rally. Oh no, it ' s still raining, and look at all the mud. We won ' t even be able to have a bonfire. It ' s just too muddy. The outlook for this year ' s Home- coming seemed about as dismal as the weather, but somehow, it became a very special Homecoming. The announcement was made at the Pep rally Thursday afternoon: Due to the weather, there won ' t be a snake dance or a bonfire tonight, but we ' re trying to find a place to hold a pep rally, so listen to the radio and they ' ll announce whether we ' re having one. A place was found— Andy ' s Auction House— and the news was announced— over radio, by signs made from mask- ing tape or written in pencil on the back of campaign posters, and by word of mouth, as cheerleaders stopped cars in the street to pass the word— There ' s a pep rally tonight at 7. The enthusiastic cheerleaders kept thinking of things to add to the pro- gram, and by 7, students entered the building with a feeling of excitement and eager anticipation. Something special was going to happen. They could feel it! Maybe it was just the different- ness of an evening pep rally, the excitement of Homecoming, or the determination to make it good, but something special did happen. An electric feeling filled the air as students yelled at the top of their lungs, laughed good-naturedly at the three football boys who made suckers of themselves , and joined in a loud chorus of Let the Sunshine In . A gentle feeling of pride and humility combined united the group as Coach Wesley Sumpter praised the efforts of the boys who made up the Wildcat ' 70 football team. Finally the pep rally was over, but the magic feeling that was created seemed to linger as the kids filed from the building. This Homecoming HAD become something really special to remember for all those who attended the pep rally. i mB GeneBn Kssfily Ut)i Spirit Wi No, all 1 have left are these three suckers, explains candy store owner Bonnie Kleinsasser to her customers Angle Hansen, Merri Pettigrew and Candy Stark, pointing out the Vikings Colin Sumpter, Steve Bruns and Blaine Hansen.

THEY CAN ' T DO DRAMA OUT TH ERE read a sign posted on the door to the stage during production of the senior class play. This reply from a woman who refused to buy a ticket reflected the attitude of many towns- people who felt that a high school class should stick to comedy. But from the very beginning the idea was to produce a drama and to produce a good drama. The play was chosen with the idea of trying to do something that would challenge the members of the cast, that would give them an opportunity to really act. The cast and director worked many hard hours trying to make it all come together. Rehearsals had to be sched- uled around sports events, final ban- quets, church programs and juniors decorating for prom, and the Sunday after prom the cast spent dVi tiring but productive hours trying to make it work. Finally, during the last week of rehearsals, the actors began to feel their characters and to relate to each other, and it looked like maybe they could do drama. Wednesday night came, time for the performance, and the house was filling rapidly. Backstage, cast and crew gathered around the director, listening in respectful silence to the words of advice he gave. Finally, it came time for the curtain to open. The director walked out to take his place in the audience, the cast mem- bers got settled and started reviewing their lines, and the first actor walked onto the stage. Two-and-a-half hours later, they had proved to themselves, their director and the 350 people in the audience that THEY CAN DO DRAMA OUT THERE. I won ' t send him away, screams Mother (Jana Marr) as she holds Charlie (Scott McKee) who is frightened and struggles to get away. ' H- tf 1 11 - 4 Director Sam Seever watches the play book closely as the actors perform. 45 ■in But why did you do it? asks Miss Quinby (Megan Moret) of Joe Thompson (Craig Barf- knecht) as she and the other teachers, Mr. Garfield (Ed Hall), Miss Kemble (Cindia Stauss) and Coach Blades (Don Duncan), question him about the mix-up in his identity. Amazed at the honors being bestowed upon him, Joe Thompson accepts the conference championship game ball from the team cap- tain Jack Turner (Dale Gray), as Leslie Adams (Marge Cox) watches. Emphasizing her point with a shake of her keys, Mrs. Beth BohUng, director, explains to the cast how the stage should be set up. Diligently studying their lines, Roger Williams, Bob Lowery, Don Duncan and Susie Deuel wait their turn on stage during early rehearsals for the junior class play Heroes Just Happen. 46 Preparing for the masquerade party at Ivy Lane High School, Debra Poole skillfully ap- plies her clown makeup. Well, good-by then, sobs Leslie Adams (Deb Smalley) as she gives a farewell kiss to Joe Thompson (Craig Barfknecht) when she discovers that he is being expelled from school. Junior Play Proves Exciting en. i0 al The identity of the real hero is finally es- tablished and Jack Turner (Dale Gray) and Brick (Wayne Howe) carry Joe Thompson off on their shoulders as the play ends. Excitement and tension ran high as juniors began arriving at 7 p.m., Nov. 21, to prepare for the first perfor- mance of their class play. For many, it was to be the first time on stage, and suddenly, no one was sure he was ready. But curtain time was drawing near, and no one really had time to be nervous as each hurried to get ready. While the would-be actresses made their way to the dressing room, hurd- ling a giant blue teddy bear stationed at the doorway and searching for a place to hang their dresses in the al- ready crowded room, the make-up girls were having their own problems. Several of the boys protested violently against having to wear rouge and lip- stick, and a beard which had been picked up that evening turned out to be brown instead of the required black, and had to be colored with the only thing available-a black magic marker. Soon the cake for the third act was brought in-a beautiful, elegant white cake decorated in pink frosting. But according to the script, the cake was supposed to have been baked by the freshman home ec. classes, and some- one decided that it looked too per- fect, so a slice was cut from the bottom to make it tilt, and cast mem- bers gathered around to get a taste of the discarded slice. Time moved rapidly, and soon all the props were gathered and in place, and all the actors were made-up, costumed and ready to begin. The curtain opened at 8 and al- though things didn ' t go off without a hitch, all the weeks of rehearsal paid off, and the actors, as well as the audience, seemed to enjoy the produc- tion. 47 A look of complete admiration fills Horace Vandergilt ' s (Dave Ridle) eyes as he envi- sions tlie lovely Miss Money being described to him by Dolly as his perfect dream girl. Teaching 33-year-old chief clerks to dance is one of her specialties, Dolly (Barb Hale) as- sures Cornelius Hackel (Dwayne McKeown) as she instructs him in waltzing. Dolly passes out business card describing her as everything from a corset maker to a poultry dealer, as Ambrose Kemper (Kim Qabaugh) stands anxiously by, fretful about missing their train to Yonkers, New York, the home of his fiancee. 48 Snow Grants Reprieve to Cast Here, take the drum and go inside, in- structs Horace Vandergilt of his neice Erm- engarde, as he tries to get the weeping child out of the streets. It ' s exciting. You stand up there with 500 people staring at you and you realize that they expect entertainment from YOU. Then you get an over- whelming feeling that you can do it. Things begin to come easy. Thus Barb Hale expressed her feel- ings after starring as Dolly Levi in the all-school musical which was presented Feb. 27. But things didn ' t always come easy, for Barb or for the rest of the cast and crew. The musical was origi- nally scheduled for Feb. 22-23, and on Feb. 21, with a light snow falling, the cast assembled for a final dress rehear- sal. Things did not go well. Lines were missed, forgotten, or spoken at the wrong times. Curtains didn ' t open on schedule, scenery changes didn ' t go smoothly, and once two actors waited on stage for five minutes with nothing to do when the store front didn ' t part when it should have. The orchestra missed entrances, took the wrong tem- pos and drowned out the vocalists. Cast members were getting panicky when someone rushed in to report, It ' s really blizzarding outside. Hopes began to rise. Maybe they ' ll call off school tomorrow and we won ' t have the musical. . . . They couldn ' t possibly have school tomorrow, cpuld they? . . . Hey, I think the weather just granted us a reprieve. And it had. School was cancelled for Monday and the musical was re- scheduled for Saturday night, Feb. 27. Always conscious of their close call, the cast practiced harder in those extra days they ' d been given, even rehears- ing on the afternoon of a basketball game, and only allowing the Pep Club girls 1 5 minutes to change and get ready to leave on the buses. But the extra hours of rehearsal paid off. Things went more smoothly, the actors, crew and orchestra mem- bers began to act like a united cast, and the final performance provided entertainment for the audience and a sense of satisfaction for the students involved. iisan S Ca J ji V During the hectic Motherhood March, DoUy tries to conceal the presence of men in the shop from Horace Vandergilt by moving them back and forth from under the table to the cabinet Minnie (Pam Simonsen) checks her watch again and wonders why her employer, Mrs. MoUoy, is late in opening her hat shop. 49 S nSSS Hello, Danny, well, hello, Manny, it ' s so nice to be back here where I belong, sings Dolly to the twin waiters (Gary and Larry Harig) as she greets the Uneup of waiters, including head waiter Louie (Randy Vaupel) and Harry (Jim Vinkenburg) on her way into the restaurant. Restaurant customers sing of those good old days as Dolly dreams about the good times she ' s had at the Harmonia Gardens. Ambrose, Ermengarde, Dolly, Cornelius Hackel and Bamaby prepare for a fun and tremen- dously exciting time in New York City as they put on their Sunday clothes. Out to get another husband after years ol being a widow, Mrs. MoUoy (Susie Hiner) decides that ribbons down her back may be what she needs to catch his eye. 50 Novice Players Give One- Acts Kids scurry around backstage, weav- ing their way in and out between props and furniture as four one-act plays are presented March 9. Actors for the first play finish setting up the stage, the master of ceremonies walks to the rmke, and the evening ' s entertainment begins. You ' re a Good Man, Charlie Brown, a day in the life of the Pea- nuts gang, earned the award for Best Play. Dave Downing was named Best Actor, with Mike Johnson as first run- ner-up, and Candy Stark as second runner-up. Best Actress. The Case of the Weird Sisters, a murder mystery with a touch of hu- mor, was designated Best Staged and two of the cast, Barb Hale and Marge Cox, were honored as Best Actress and runner-up. Mike Kraus, who played Herbie in Herbie Gets the Mumps, was judged as second runner-up for Best Actor. The most dramatic play of the eve- ning, Nothing To Destroy, was con- sidered by the judges to be runner-up for Best Acted play. The girl from the florist shop (Phyllis Erick- son) delivers a box of flowers with a get well message to Kay (Linda Higer) who isn ' t sick and doesn ' t yet understand the meaning of the card written by her boy friend. Furious at Nina (Susie Miller) for mocking the United States flag and the pledge of alle- gi ance, Anna (Dee Thornton) silences her with a slap on the cheek. Enid (Barb Hale) tries to persuade the pri- vate investigator (Cindia Stauss) that evil spirits lurk in the house and that it would be dangerous for her to take the spare room. Charlie Brown, what would you think if some day we got married and we were so poor you had to sell your piano to buy me saucepans? asks Lucy (Candy Stark) of Schroeder (Dave Downing), as he continues to play and tries to ignore his forward friend. 51 iis sis fiss Dressed in proper Tahitian dress, Cindy Keith serves dinner to seniors Candy Stark and Susie Miller during the Junior-Senior Banquet on May 8, 1971. Happiness Is . . . was the theme of the speech given by Mr. Gary Jackson. Traditional Prom Still Remains Lovely Hula Hands express a welcome as Haydee Inchaustegui Bracho entertains. The official word was finally out. The seniors had voted to continue the tradition of the Junior class honoring the senior class with a banquet and prom. Since the beginning months of school, editorials, discussions heard everywhere from the rest rooms to the drug store, and just gossip in general reflected controversy concerning the traditional spring event. There ' s too much time and money involved for just one night. But I ' ve never been to a prom be- fore. Nobody ever stays at the dance for more than an hour. We gave the seniors a prom last year, so we want one this year. The matter was up to the seniors until it was discovered at a senior class meeting that the pros outnumbered the cons, then it was the juniors ' task. Committees were organized and the theme, Tahitian Paradise was select- ed. The usual struggle to decorate the school cafeteria and the tables began after school Friday, May 7, and finish- ing touches were put on Saturday af- ternoon. At last it was 6:30 P.M. Saturday, May 8, 1971. The upperclassmen en- tered the banquet through an entrance- way decorated as a grass hut. Sophomores dressed in atmospheric attire served the meal.

Will the first row rise and come forward. The b ig moment had finally arrived. The first student from the Class of 1971 stepped across the stage to be- come a graduate. As each student walked from the stage with diploma in hand, he quickly removed its plastic cover and checked to make sure it was signed. Then came the time for rejoic- ing, hugging, kissing and special hand- shakes. They ' d made it! They were free! After putting back on the proper facade of the solemn graduating se- niors, they walked back into the gym and took their places to see their fel- low students graduate. When all had been presented with their diplomas, the benediction was given, tassels were flipped, and the graduates left the gym, walking solemnly up the stairs and then breaking into a run as they hurried to congratulate friends. There was a mad rush to turn in robes, and then each went his separate way, yelling congratu lations and flash- ing peace signs to friends as he went. Hours earlier, the same students had gathered in the halls to Une up for their last activity as a class. The method of marching in had to be changed because of the rain, so the 72 students walked down the front stairs and past the rows and rows of people to assemble at the back of the gym. Then the band struck up Pomp and Circumstance, and the graduating seniors paired off and began the march down the center aisle to their seats. After the invocation, the students were seated and the speaker, Mr. Mer- hn Menagh of the State Department of Education addressed the class. Then the top ten students in the class were announced, the class was presented to the Board of Education, and diplomas were presented. And suddenly it was over, and the school building was strangel y empty. Never again would these students walk the halls of SHS as members of the student body, but they would always be members of the Class of ' 71 . a ' With bowed heads, the graduating seniors stand in reverent silence as Reverend Albert Kleinsasser delivers the invocation.

A Time to Win . . . A Time to Lose Atliletes practice many long strenuous hours. Coaclies spend hours blocking plays and figuring new strategy. Ev- eryone strives to produce a smooth-running team. Some- times they win and everyone is happy, thrilled, excited and full of self-satisfaction. Sometimes they lose and everyone is upset, dejected, downcast, and a little disappointed in himself. But winning or losing isn ' t the most important part of athletic competition. The learning opportunity is far more important than the year-end record. From sports, the ath- letes have an opportunity to strengthen their sense of re- sponsibility and their ability to work with others. Competi- tion iiclps tiicm to grow as individuals and to develop pride, determination and guts. FootbaU is not aU fun and games. It is also hard practice, regardless of whether it is hot or cold. When scrimmaging in the cold, the team wears sidelme jackets and some players even have tape over the ear holes to keep the wind out of their hehnets. mhaii Inltad Wildcats Show Perseverance Maybe they didn ' t win a game all year, but they never quit trying either. This statement, made by assistant coach Wesley Sumpter, is not an alibi but a compUment to the Wildcat football team ' s perseverance. Individual performances also drew recognition with Steve Bruns, who led both defense and offense, and Jim Barton both making the Southern Division All-Conference team. This year ' s team worked from two to two and a half hours each practice session. Practice sessions started in late August, early in the morning, and weren ' t concluded until Novem- ber. The team practiced in mud, rain, snow, bitter cold and sweltering heat. For what? For two hours on Friday night. Two hours to go out and hit and do their best to beat those guys across from them. Football isn ' t all games and prac- tice though. Football is sleeping very httle, if at all, the night before a game. Football is telling everybody all day the day of the game that you ' re going to ' smash ' em! ' Football is eating supper at 4:30 in the afternoon so when it comes close to game time and you ' re all tensed up you won ' t lose your supper. Football is going to school at 6 to start getting ready for the game. Football is struggling to put on a pair of tight football pants that look three sizes too small-and feel like it when you get them on. Football is yelling let ' s get ' em and jargon of this sort while doing calisthentics and other warm-up drills. Football is listening to the coach ' s pep talk and wishing, praying that the game was over or that this is a dream and you ' ll wake up. Football is winning and losing and looking forward to the next time. Football isn ' t a game for everybody, not everybody can lose and come back next week for more. Only a team with men on it can. Frustration is written on the faces of Dayre Williams and Blaine Hansen as Sutton nears the goal line and another touchdown 60 Bab With hand gestures and vocal directions, head coach William Witty instructs his team. With dejection showing on their faces, the Cats slowly make their way back to the dressing room after losing a home game to the Fairbury Jeffs.

Hard Luck Jinxes Tournaments Even though there is a time to win and a time to lose, all athletes prefer to win. The Wildcats had better than average luck as the varsity, reserve, and freshman combined record total was 23-20. The margin might very well have been greater as there were six games that were lost by three points or less. The Cats seemed to suffer their worst luck in tournaments. They played in three tournaments and placed no better than third in any one. The first tournament was the Christmas Holiday Tourney at Hast- ings College. In the first round the Cats fell to the Ord Chanticleers by two points to end their champion- ship hopes. Despite this, the Cats came back to take third place with a convincing win over York. At the end of January the Cats went to Grand Island to the Mid- Nebraska Tournament. The first round went fine as they defeated St. Cecilia, but the host school. Grand Island Central Catholic, and Grand Island Northwest proved to be too tough to handle . When a team goes to the District Tournament it is putting all its eggs in one basket. The season could be ended by one defeat or it could con- tinue until a state championship is won. Even though the season ended for the Wildcats after the first game of district, it ended excitingly with the game in the balance right up to the instant the last shot rimmed away. This last game was lost like many others, by one point, with the final score Lexington 52, Superior 51.

Gray Skies Bound To Clear Up Certain things just seem to go to- gether. Things like horse and carriage, picnics and ants, and after the 1971 season, track meets and rain could be added to the Ust. The weather cooperated during the dual, triangular and district meets, but other times it was quite unkind. The first track meet in Superior, the Ed Weir, was posponed because of rain and at the later date was run in the rain and mud. The conference meet at Grand Is- land Northwest was also rained out and then run 4 days later in the rain. The team took advantage of the good weather at the district track meet in Crete as several people beat their previous records. Rick Alexander, as a junior, set the school 880-yard run record with a 2:02.2 time, and the mile relay team of Jim Conger, Rick Alexander, Dale Gray and Dave Wilson broke the school record in that event with a time of 3:31.2. All in all, the day was quite success- ful as 6 qualified for the state meet in Kearney. This is the greatest number of tracksters who have gone to state under the coaching of Coach Kile. Qualifying for state were Rob Ap- plegate, shot and discus; Jerry Sie- becker, pole vault; Rick Alexander, 880 yard run; and mile relay team consisting of Rick Alexander, Dale Gray, Dave Wilson and Jim Conger, who was replaced by Dan Jackson at State. Nobody placed in the top five at State, but the attitude of the boys was summed up adequately by one track- ster who said, just getting here was worth it. We ' ll be back next year, to win. M With a loud grunt, Rob Applegate launches a near 50-foot throw. 69 Doubling as a judge. Coach Gary Kile lines up the two teams and explains the course in preparation for a dual meet. A Unique Sport What is cross country? To the un- initiated observer, a cross country race looks hke a bunch of guys in brief uniforms running around trees and up and down hills. The cross country participants, or harriers as they are commonly called, have a different feeling about the sport. To a harrier, cross country is no different to train for than any other sport. You ' ve got to work at it just as hard and long. It also requires a lot of determina- tion. Many track athletes figure, well, I run in track, so cross country shouldn ' t be hard. The problem with this train of thought is that there is a big difference between running up and down hills and around a circular track. One thing that makes cross coun- try fun for the participants is trying to run fast and jump a creek after it ' s rained, an SHS runner observed. I ' ve seen a lot of guys wiped out by the little creek we jump over at the dis- trict cross country meet. m oat: aer alll con Sof tffi 1 m eiy poi lat i h With a strong finish.

What do all these people have in common? They were all in Superior for the Ed Weir track meet. Even the cold rainy weather couldn ' t keep ev- eryone in as the once-post poned meet went off 2 days late. .XSHi V It was a hardy breed of athletes who braved the rain to run. The mud and rain were so bad that one triple jumper remarked he couldn ' t even see the take- off board any more. Runners ere slipping slightly going around corners. After it was all over, one Wildcat thin clad remarked, the weather made it more fun and exciting.

Faith, Slogans Spur Wrestlers No Mercy . . , Be a good winner . . , Show me a good loser and I ' ll show you a loser . . , When the going gets tough the tough get going. These are some of the slogans that wrestling coach Wesley Sumpter used to inspire his team to end a 3-year los- ing streak with a 8-2 season. To encourage individuals to give the last ounce. Coach Sumpter gave special awards after each match. If a wrestler pinned his opponent he was awarded a Mean Cat head band to wear for the rest of the match. Also each week the team voted on the out- standing wrestler of the week and awarded him the title Mean Cat of the Week. Evidence that all this wasn ' t in vain is the fact that this year Mike Kraus and Colin Sumpter went to state. Mike was eliminated in the first round while CoHn finished in 4th place. 72 ■TTT rt, — A glance at the faces of the wrestlers on the bench shows different emotions, but all are thinking about one thing -winning.

Eighteenth Tee Woe for Golfer I remember I was on the 18th green of the District Class B Grass Greens Tournament, trying to salvage a 12- foot triple bogie putt to keep me and my team out of last place. I sent the ball toward the pin. It caught the rim of the cup. The ball shot past the hole, off the green, and onto the fringe. The crowd gasped. These putting surfaces sure are fast, aren ' t they? I jokingly ex- claimed. No one laughed. Why when I played at Alma, the greens were so slow that you had to use a driver to putt. Still no one laughed. And again at Geneva, the greens were so fast that my putts were usual- ly longer than my drives. Why didn ' t they laugh? I took my stance and with a soft stroke glided the ball 6 feet past the cup. Now they laughed. How humiliat- ing. This is the way one golfer remem- bers his senior year. The story is true. The facts have been exaggerated to protect the innocent. With a smooth follow-through Jim Richard- son sends a long drive down the fairway. To make sure that everything is just right, Mike Johnson gets down behind his ball and studies the green to line up the putt perfectly. 74 Colin Sumpter scores easily from third base as Gregg Bostelman rounds third and heads for home. After beating Sutton in the district finals, the Wildcats admire their trophy. GB ' s Sluggers Strike Success Rome wasn ' t built in a day, but it only took the SHS baseball team two years to reach State. Baseball, in only its second year at SHS, achieved one of the highest goals of high school athletics. The Wildcats finished the regular season with a 5-3 record. At district tournament, they defeated Clarks and Sutton, winning the championship game 10-0 in five innings. Then it was off to state tournament, where they were beaten in the semi- final game by an alert Omaha Gross team which went on to win the State Championship.

Jimmy, better known to his friends as Sugar Bear, was born July 4, 1953, in Russell, Kan. Jim lived and attended school in Russell through the fourth grade, when the family moved to Superior. Jim, during the past seven years, made friendships in everything that he participated in, and everyone that he came in contact with. He loved his family and his friends and brought pleasure to all. Jim loved sports from the time he was old enough to pick up a ball. He grew up in sports, with three brothers, and lived sports to the end. In his three years of high school sports, he excelled in football, track and wres- tling. Jim not only did well in sports, but also took his school work and activi- ties seriously. His grades and memberships in Key Club, S Club, and Stu- dent Council show this, as well as his abiUty to supply zest to his classmates and the fact that he was well liked by his teachers. Jim, Sugar Bear, will always be in the hearts of everyone who knew him. —From the Obituary Read at the Memorial Service S Vjf • c m I mf • y MM«i8i ' M A Time to Work. . . A Time to Play Senior, junior, sophomore, freshman. Whatever your rank in high school, you ' re a member of a unique class. Each class works together, on floats and money-making projects, and each class plays together, at parties, dances, and whenever a group of kids get together. But each class is an individual one, each has an identity of its own. The floats are different, proms are different, money-making projects are different. Because a class is made up of individuals, and each person is different from the next. Each has his own ideas, beliefs, ambitions. Each has his own character and personality, and each contributes to the identity of the class, forming a personality which is unique to that particular class in that particular year.
