Here dwells the devoted unity So necessary to harmonious school life, A “Unity in Diversity,” Composed of varied Personalities and backgrounds Of youths Who seek the companionship of friends And the guidance of adults. In the thirty unique minds of a classroom. In the fifty different talents of club members, In the eleven separate positions of a football squad There lies that quiet unity That makes the individual ' s efforts a success. Even in defeat and discouragement He grows in wisdom; He learns the value of cooperation. A force that will not stifle his identity But enhance his life with others. Unity and diversity . . . Two marvelous and combinable qualities Which neutralize each other. So that in school life A thousand vigorous personalities Can never lose their individuality In togetherness. A building — old, new, and in-between A coal smokestack, A carpeted office. Green blackboards, A lot of the old A little of the new And some of the in-between. This is VHS as a building, A dignified brick structure Of forty years With a Spanish design Typified by a breezeway That has ushered countless crowds Into the life Of VHS. Creating such diverse impressions To an outsider. But to its inhabitants It remains A unified way of life Beloved for its familiarity. 6 People — the artisans of education People make up a school Not buildings. Students with diverse interests. Teachers in various fields. Administrators with differing responsibilities, A staff with individual duties. All together they are the artisans of an education. As individuals We are Short . . . tall Quiet . . . clowns Musicians, typists Or stamp collectors. Together we’re Vikes, A wall of white at a basketball game. A spirited crowd at a convocation. For us there ' s strength in numbers When it counts Or the luxury of solitude For personal growth. For the people of VHS There is time for both. 8 g Things we do together, out of school as within Term paper time — the library, Christmas shopping, Dance committees. Things we do together, Out of school as within Unity pervades. Diversity thrives. Time for individual hobbies, A part time job And personal likes. But always there is That loyalty And unity Identifying our school As unique among many. Here we acquire lifelong friends Who teach cooperation and unity Yet who complement Our own individuality. Talent and dedication, dependent qualities Talent is intensely individual. In youth it exists in potential, Waiting to be motivated Through group experience Into an eventual good For everyone. But for every outstanding display of ability There are double dormant abilities, Because talent is developed Through dedication, And dedication is a talent In itself. Dedication is missing the Prom Because of a track meet. It’s staying up late Because the paper must come out Friday. Schools may try to unlock talent. But no one can teach dedication; Dedication comes from within. 13 Causes that demand talents to combine Alone. . .together In the hustle of everyday routine We do our part As followers, as leaders As students, teachers. Or staff To make VHS A unique home United in the very diversity Of its inhabitants. A school in which Talent, the core of the individual, Finds opportunity to Express itself And to unite itself to a cause. A study. An organization. A sport, Demanding individuals Who can contribute to the whole Who can use the core of their individuality To create unity. This is a “Unity in Diversity.” Faces — the character of a school 16 Reflections of a journey Through which contemplation Illustrates the purpose of learning, Whether fanciful dreams, Curious interest, or merely Existence Is in the expression of a student, He becomes sensitive to the Emotions of others. Frustration, Confusion, Satisfaction are the privileges Endowed upon the student. The superficial facets of each Are obvious, But through participation Distinct individualism emerges into a Kaleidoscope of emotions. 17 Commencement means ‘to begin’ Bearing memories of the year when they were the poised, self-confident leaders of the student body, the class of ' 68. led by Paul Seelig, president; Cappy Peller, vice-president; Pam Ehrsam. secretary; and John Schnure, treasurer, leaves VHS to find its own way. Many will attend college — once again becoming inexperienced freshmen; others will take on jobs or marriage. Whatever they do, they will remember carrying armfuls of books, screaming at games, studying for finals ' rescuing text books from flooded lockers, spreading hard butter without a knife, and all the little things that have made high school. Commencement exercises, as the name indicates, do not merely conclude one stage of education, but they also welcome the future and the beginning of a new way of life.

At this time in their high school career these students were also confronted with planning for the future. Preliminary tests faced the college-bound, while other students formulated ideas about technical and service careers. Junior class leaders, Gary Cors- bie, president; A1 Cunningham, vice-president; Angie Wood, secretary; and Linda Rough, treasurer, shouldered the responsibility of supervising the completion of the Prom, a traditional junior project. This was an oppor- tunity for the entire class to join forces and take pride in presenting the most elaborate event of the school year. By developing a sense of cooperation and setting future goals, the juniors took a giant step along the path to adulthood.

Getting acquainted with new surroundings, choosing organizations to join, and ac- quiring new friends are all activities unique to these new residents of VHS. As junior high days are left be- hind sophomores must adopt the added maturity that comes with high school life. At this time they form a tentative academic program that may lead to college study or further vocational training. The great success of the junior varsity teams was a tribute to this class’s unity and spirit. The class officers, Chuck Asher, presi- dent: Chip Pool, vice-president: Vicki Gathmann, sec- retary: and Cheryl Gast, treasurer, selected the ring style for the class of 1970. Having played an active role in high school activities this year, the sophomores are better prepared to assume the greater responsibilities of juniors.

There is logic and reasoning, but still Doubtful and hesitant ideas Envelop the student. Although a union is established through the Classroom. Identity evolves from companionship. The acquisition of absurd facts Is employed to utilize enthusiasm. Day after day students come Faithfully executing their duties as a class. But in this systematic routine Subtle variations appear through Day by day communication. 51 MANN SPITLER: President. MRS. GENE MYERS: Vice-President. The old Cooks Corners School underwent considerable expan- sion and remodeling since its construction in 1894. The 1967-88 academic year was the first season of use for the new Cooks Comer school building located on North Meridian and Bullseye Lake Roads. 52 Community leaders provide for the future of education Four members of the Board of Education are appointed by the City Council, while the remaining one is selected by the Center Township Advisory Board. Presently Mr. Mann Spitler, Jr., is serving as president; assisting him is Mrs. Gene Myers, vice-president. Mr. Willard Wellman serves as secretary, and Mr. Charles Bowman and Mr. Joseph Durand are the fourth and fifth members of the Board. The major responsibility of the Board is to safeguard and promote high standards of education in the Valparaiso Community Schools. Compiling the budget and planning for new school buildings are tasks the School Board also faces. This year it authorized a portion of the recently- completed Cooks Corners school building to be used for the office of the Northwest Multi-Service Educational Center, headed by Prof. Wayne Swi- hart. Although the Board does not generally meet with all of the teachers in a formal meeting, this year for the first time it participated with the Valparaiso Teachers Association in a panel and audience discussion of common problems. Its goal is to achieve the best possible administration- teacher relationship. JOSEPH IJU RAN II: Member Mr Phillips, superintendent of Valparaiso Com munity Schools, investigates with architects pos- sible blueprints for expansion programs. 53 G. WARREN PHILLIPS: Superintendent of Valparaiso Community Schools. On October 11, the School Board participated with several Valparaiso teachers in a panel discussion of common problems. 54 Administrators unify components of education At the pep assembly prior to the E. C. Roosevelt champion- ship football game. Mr. Phillips, Superintendent of Schools, addressed the entire student body, urging an all-out effort in this crucial game. During a brief visit to the administration building. Mr. Telle. Mr. Phillips, and Mr. Doane discuss some of VHS ' s activities. Coordinating the efforts of the school sys- tem ' s entire staff are various administrative heads. Mr. G. Warren Phillips, operating with- in the guidelines of School Board policies, is the overseer of all Valparaiso Community School matters including the financial pro- gram, the planning of new school buildings, and the hiring of teachers. Recently, he was selected to direct a group of school admini- strators on a tour through Scandinavian countries in a study of foreign educational methods. Mr. Phillips is also active in state organizations, and was honored by an ap- pointment to the executive board of the American Association of High School Admini- strators. Mr. King Telle, principal at VHS. has the responsibility for the entire opera- tion of the high school including all academic and social affairs, student attendance, teacher assignments, and building maintenance. Athletic contracts, ticket sales, and Student Council sponsorship, were some of the more important duties discharged by C. J. Doane, Vice-Principal and Athletic Director. Mr. Roger Williams, VHS chemistry teacher, com- pleted his second season as president of the Indiana Classroom Teachers Association in June of 1968. Mr. Glen Ellis served as chair- man of the North Central Association accre- ditation and inspection of VHS. His responsi- bilities in this capacity included compiling the many individual and departmental re- ports into a single volume, depicting VHS educational standards, facilities, and achievements. Mr Glen Ellis, VHS math teacher and former Valparaiso Teachers Association president, scheduled all reports by faculty members for the North Central Evaluation program. Mr. William ' s post as president of the Indiana Classroom Teachers Association required him to be absent from VHS on several days this year. 55 NCA evaluates and reports on VHS education During the week of March 4-8, an eleven-member committee from the North Central Association of Col- leges and Secondary Schools made a qualative evalua- tion of Valparaiso High School ' s ability to serve the. educative needs of the students and the community. Admitted in 1910, VHS became one of the first high schools to join the NCA, and was last investigated in 1946. According to a new NCA ruling, members must be re-evaluated every seven years. The faculty, under the direction of Mr. Glen Ellis, Mr. Dale Ciciora, Mrs. Mary Edna Bowman, Mr. C. J. Doane, and Mr. A1 Henkel serving as a steering committee, began preparations for the NCA visit in early fall by compiling reports on all facets of school activity. These viewpoints were later reviewed by the NCA committee as part of an accreditation procedure. Headed by Mr. Russell Rother- mel, the team of educators considered the qualifica- tions of the faculty, interviewed individual teachers, observed classroom activity, and spoke to students. Several parents were invited to present their estima- tion of VHS’s program. Shortly after the conclusion of three days of observation and questioning, the NCA team made an oral report of its findings and recommen- dations to the school board, administration, and steer- ing committee. A formal written report was later sent to the state chairman of NCA and to the local school board. Mr. Russell Rothermel organized the efforts of the ed- ucators who conducted the three-day Investigation of VHS. After three days of observing VHS. the NCA commit- tee submitted a complete report on the high school ' s progress and suggestions for improving facilities and practices. Superintendent Phillips welcomes the NCA committee at the introductory meeting. As chairman of the School and Community Committee, Mr Brown discusses his group ' s report of the school-community relationship. Mr. Glen Ellis, chairman of the NCA steering committee, addresses the faculty and the NCA committee on the opening day of VHS ' s evaluation. Mr. Telle delivers an opening address at a din- ner attended by the NCA evaluation committee, the faculty steering committee, and the school board members. A member of the NCA evaluation committee converses with Mr. Hildreth and Mr. Henkel, VHS guidance counselors, at an intro- ductory meeting of faculty and evaluators. 57 Mr. Rothermel. chairman of the ten-member NCA evaluation committee, explains the pur- pose and procedure of the NCA investigation before an assembly of the student body. In its effort to obtain an overall view of VHS life, the NCA com- mittee visited groups of VHS students in the art room. Mr . Virgil Sweet converses with a member of the NCA committee about the sports facilities avail- able for the students of VHS. 58 1968 Urges self-reflection for VHS The NCA committee invited about fifteen students to the home economics kitchen to discuss their Ideas on the improvement of VHS. NCA committee members visited all VHS classes to observe teaching facilities and methods of instruction. 59 Mr. lames Trost completed his second season as Direc- Mr. Hildreth, senior guidance counselor, anticipates tor of Curriculum for the Valparaiso Community Schools. an interview with another student. Senior students consult the new College View-Deck to aid them in selecting col- leges and vocational schools. Mr. Henkel. VHS ' s head guidance counselor, counsels with all senior students at least once during the year, conducts the college testing, and arranges visits from various admis- sions officers. Mrs. Bauer, sophomore girls ' guidance counselor, welcomes students to discuss any scheduling prob- lems with her. Mike Woods consults Mr. Ciciora. vocational coun selor. to find part-time employment. Guidance furnishes pathways into improved curriculum Sometime during his high school career, the student must formulate ideas about future em- ployment. This year ' s guidance staff of Mr. Alfred Henkel, head guidance counselor; Mr. Jack Hildreth, senior guidance counselor; Mr. Dale Ciciora, Mr. Virgil Sweet, and Mrs. De- lores Bauer, counselled with all VHS students concerning vocational goals and courses of study. The newly-purchased College View- Deck aided seniors in selecting from 2100 col- leges by means of computerized choice cards. In addition, the counselors made arrangements for representatives from various universities to discuss educational opportunities with inter- ested students. Throughout the year, the guid- ance staff administered tests necessary to the attainment of scholarships to many schools. Valparaiso’s Director of Curriculum. Mr. fames Trost, is presently in Phase I of adjusting the programs of study to ensure that city schools maintain high academic standards. Accordingly, shop and business courses were upgraded this year. When scheduling problems arise. Mr. Sweet is always prepared to counsel with sophomore boys. Posters concerning scholarship programs of many colleges are dis- played in the senior guidance show- case. located by the shorthand room. 61 Secretaries maintain efficiency in administrative offices Secretaries fulfilled a vital task in the Valparaiso Community School System by keeping administrative offices operating smoothly. At VHS there were three: Miss Mary Brady, Mrs. D. Helen Parks, and Mrs. Char- lotte Ransom. Miss Brady, secretary to Mr. Telle, was responsible for office correspondence and college transcripts. While serving as secretary to Mr. Doane, Mrs. Parks recorded attendance and did the Extra Cur- ricular Fund bookkeeping. Keeping students ' academic and personal files up-to-date was part of Mrs. Ran- som ' s duties as secretary to the guidance department. In the superintendent ' s office. Miss Shelia Thompson completed her first year as secretary to Mr. Trost. Mrs. Evangeline Pippin served as receptionist and secretary. Mrs. Isabelle Froenicke performed the book- keeping operations for the Valparaiso School System. Mrs. Grace Rickard acted as personal secretary to Mr. Phillips: she also maintained financial records and prepared budgetary materials for the School Board. Responsibility for permanent grade cards and athletic files was also part of Mary Brady ' s duties. Charlotte Ransom ' s duties as secretary to the guidance department also included arranging student appointments with the guidance counselors. Dorothie Helen Parks, a new face in the office, developed an attendance system whereby students sign In and sign out when arriving or leaving in the middle of the day. 62 Students rush to obtain admittance slips from Mrs. Parks before the eight o ' clock bell. Miss Brady abandoned her desk while a repairman adfusted the automatic bell system, which was installed in 1965 during the construction of the new office area. Grace Rickard, secretary to Mr. Phil- lips. has been employed in the super- intendent ' s office for 39 years. Isabelle Froenicke was concerned largely with the bookkeeping for the various Valparaiso Community Schools. As receptionist. Evangeline Pippin greeted visitors to the superinten- dent ' s office and handled many busi- ness requests. During her first year in the superintendent ' s office, Shelia Thompson worked as secretary to Mr. Trost. 63 A faculty grows and changes, New teachers constantly fortify VHS ' s ex- cellent faculty as it builds even higher educa- tional goals. Nine individuals joined the VHS teaching staff, making a total this year of 42 members. Seven of these were hired as replace- ments and two as additional teachers. For Mrs. Clark and Miss Gray the 1967-68 academic sea- son constituted their first year of teaching. Mr. Stanier came to VHS from Gary Horace Mann, Mr. Miller from Hobart, Miss Runzer from Mun- ster, and Mr. Praed from Hammond. After teach- ing five years at Thomas Jefferson Junior High School. Miss Shauer returned to VHS ' s English department. Mr. Rigg, who instructed courses in geometry and applied science this year, pre- viously taught at Benjamin Franklin Junior High School as did Mr. Bird, teacher of sophomore English. Mr. Maiers, a geometry and algebra instruc- tor, returned to VHS after teaching in Turkey last year on a Fulbright Grant from the State Department. At the close of the first six weeks, Miss Connors left and was replaced by Mr. Toming. DELORES BAUER: Spanish :t. 4. 5. 6. 7.8: Guidance: Student Nurses. ROY ELLIS BROWN: English 7: Valenlan.

Mr. Dickson spends a hectic day trying to keep the gym clean. Mr Cramsie. Mr. Gustafson, and Mr. Falls did much of the repair work around VHS as well as serving in other Valparaiso schools. VHS staff brightens lunches and buildings The task of keeping VHS a suitable place in which to learn was delegated to five custodians who worked faithfully throughout the year. Mr. Marsh had the responsibility of stoking the boilers in the early morning hours of the school day. A Friday night basketball game meant extra hours of hard work for Mr. Dickson, who cleaned the gym and kept it in a good state of repair. Besides serving as custodians in other Valparaiso schools, Mr. Cramsie. Mr. Gustafson, and Mr. Falls assisted in repair jobs around VHS. During the evening a team of professional ma intenance people per- formed the actual cleaning of the high school building. In order to present a variety of well-balanced meals to the students and faculty of VHS. the cooks had to carefully plan menus at least a week in advance. To create an interesting atmosphere in the lunchroom, the ladies supplemented a Mexican dinner of tacos with colorful serapes, sombreros, and Spanish music. Olma Montoney. Ann Williams. Bernice Brunicon. Lucille Baugher. and Ruth Berrier served as VHS cooks during the 1967-68 school year. 71 English curriculum stresses literary enjoyment Because communication is of such great importance in our world today, a mastery of composition and reading skills is required of VHS students. Instructed by Mr. Bird, Miss Craig, Mrs. Clark, Miss Gray, and Mr. Dohrmann, sophomores concentrated on studies of Silas Marner, of fulius Caesar, of a new unit in mythology, and other works in the literary anthology. A discussion of theme structure and grammer developed in the course of their reading. This year the integrated composition and literature course was compulsory for juniors; however, several also enrolled in Mr. Bird’s speech class. In their literature course juniors traced the development of American themes since colonial days. Mrs. Heckman and Miss Shauer also examined the characteristics of literary forms. Senior English courses that did much in preparing the college-bound, also developed in their students a critical attitude in reading and a concise form in composition. In English 7 seniors composed critiques on selected poems of British authors, tackled the traditional isms,’’ and explored trends in the literature of England. Expository writing and footnoting were discussed and finally em- ployed in a formal term paper in Mrs. Bowman ' s English 8. Miss Shauer emphasized advanced grammar and theme composition. Students in Mr. Bird ' s English 3 class concentrate on Steve Hoard ' s report on the origin of words. Jim Palmer employs the dictionary ' s aid in his study, while Dan Rhoda composes a preparatory draft to his term paper in MissShauer ' s English 8 class. Miss Craig ' s English 3 classes always display unusual seat- ing arrangements which give students unique views of the classroom.

Language involves appreciating people, cultures, history At VHS studying a language does not stop at the mastery of grammar and speaking skills; much emphasis is placed on the knowledge of the culture and history of the people who speak the tongue. Latin students reported on novels with Roman back- grounds and analyzed words and phrases with mytho- logical origins. Miniature Roman villas and similar constructions were built by students to acquire an image of Roman life. All French classes learned French songs; third year French students visited the French Embassy in Chicago, and viewed a play pre- sented by a company of French actors at Purdue Uni- versity. In order to become acquainted with South American students their own age, Spanish students corresponded with pen pals from Argentina, Chile, and Mexico. Advanced German classes celebrated the Oktoberfest by enjoying German refreshments and games. They also viewed slides concerning several aspects of German culture. Cappy Peller, Martha Bowman. Jeff Bibler. and |anet Cox refer to a large standardized map of Germany to aid them in compiling map protects in Miss Gray ' s German 5 class.

S. citizenship. While civics, economics, and U. S. history are Indiana requisites for graduation; VHS also offered world history, sociology, economic geog- raphy, and applied economics. This year’s civics classes sponsored a school-wide presidential election, in which teams of civics students competed to encourage VHSers to vote. Mr. Edquist’s economics students compiled a complete budget and floor plans for the financing of a new home on an established income. Both U. S. history and world history courses employed maps, quizzes, and book reports in their endeavors to comprehend past societies. In several of the classes oral reports, term papers, and debates constituted semester projects. Sociology, a semester course, ex- plored human behavior through classroom discussion and outside reading. During the second semester Mr. Toming instructed seniors in a new elective course entitled Social Problems. On the whole, social studies are an integral part of a complete education, and a popular phase of VHS curriculum. Miss Fitzgerald. a field representative from the Gary Social Security Bureau, presented slides to the economics classes, and explained the social security program. (im Scott presents an oral report in Mr. Stokes applied economics class, a course which emphasized the value of budgeting time and money.

Mr. Rigg. with varying aims The VHS science curriculum this year again strove to instil in its students an awareness of chemical and physical happenings. Applied Science was taught by Mr. Rigg for the student who desired a general knowledge of everyday scientific occurrences. In chemistry courses instructed by Mr. Williams and Mr. Chenoweth, students explored the characteristics of sub- stances and chemical reactions. Mr. Loomis taught physics this year with the Physical Science Study Committee text, which is now used widely throughout the United States. The physics and chemistry courses were again di- vided into terminal and academic approaches. Terminal courses studied the same material as the academic, but with less emphasis on mathematics. In deciding which phase to under- take, the student must analyze his own ambi- tions. Jim Gelling, with the aid of Michele Channel, presents his solution of a sta- tics problem in general physics. |ohn Schoenbeck studies the complex structure of an organic molecule during Mr. Chenoweth s Chemistry 1 class. 79 Steve Festa demonstrates the method for solving a quadratic equation during Miss Norris ' Honors Algebra class. Sue Waldschmidt attempts to explain a plastic overlay on space coordinate systems to Gary Gabbard and Brad Dole- zal, students in Mr. Malers ' second hour algebra class. Math exists as exercise in logic Mathematics has always represented frustration to some and challenge to others. VHS math in- structors have attempted again this year to stimu- late mathematical interests in all students, through regular and honors courses. In addition to class- room study, some math students participated in two annual contests. The National Mathematics Contest, open to all students and held on March 12, consisted of 35 extremely difficult problems. A team score was determined for the high school by the average of its top three individual marks. During the last five years Valpo has earned a first, second, and third in the state finals of its division and has ranked in the upper ten per cent of a five- state region. Four years ago VHS initiated the In- vitational Mathematics Tournament, which in- volves nine schools in this area. A few outstanding geometry, algebra, and senior math students were selected to represent Valpo this year at Elkhart, the hosting school. In the short history of this con- test VHS has managed to capture a first, second, third, and fourth place prize. Vic Myers, honors senior math student, explains a relationship between the derivatives of logarithmic functions. 80 During senior math class, Steve Buck outlines a method of deter- mining the maxima and minima of polynomial equations. A colorful mobile dangles from a light fixture in Mr. Maiers ' room, which the VHS art stu- dents decorated with geometric designs. Mr Maiers clarifies a question for (ay Bennett, who is completing a non-Euclidean geometry test during Honors Geometry class. Mr. Ellis explains National Math Test directions to the tophomores. juniors, and seniors who nervously await the brain draining ordeal. Proofs of geometry theorems have always provided a real challenge for VHS sophomores. After preparing their assignments, students present their solutions to the class. 81 Craig (ackson and Ed Williams use care while cleaning their type- writers in Mr. Rohn ' s personal typing class, a semester course that teaches the basics of manuscript and letter typing. Mrs. Callis 4 bookkeeping students take advantage of study time to prepare the assignment for tomorrow. Beginning shorthand students.

Mike Mr.Bain questions Mr. Stanier about a concept pre- sented in the Business Law Workbook. 82 To acquire added speed in shorthand skills, Nancy Hart. Kathy Anderson, and Diane Denby take down dictation from a tape in Mrs. Calzacorto ' s Advanced Shorthand class. Dawn Goodpaster and Becky Bieker check their data in Mr. Rohn ' s newly established record keeping class. Improvements emerge in business curriculum Students who desired office positions after gradu- ation or who wished to further their education along business lines found this year’s VHS business courses of much benefit. As part of a gradual curriculum improvement, the business department was expanded and equipped with new typewriters and secretarial desks, together with updated supplies. A sales course, taught by Mr. Stanier, a new VHS instruc- tor, was established as a follow-up to Business Law. The new Advanced Shorthand and Secretarial Practice offered more intensive office training to girls preparing for secretarial work. This two-hour course, instructed by Mrs. Calzacorto, outlined business methods employed in medical work, in- surance agencies, and law firms. An enrollment demand for Personal Typing warranted that this course be offered during the school year instead of the usual summer session. Three semesters of formal typing and one semester of office practice are still standard in the business curriculum. Busi- ness English and Business Law studies enabled students to become versed in business vocabulary and the legislation pertaining to business operations. Finally, bookkeeping, in addition to providing the fundamentals of money usage in small business, laid the groundwork for the further study of ac- counting. |an Stephan and Becky Herren compare the various styles of business letters In Mrs. Bigler ' s Typing 1 class. 83 Cary Whitcomb. Bill Kotys. and Ken Denby employ the lathe and woodworking equipment as they complete their individual projects in a combined metal and wood class. Mr. Rhoda instructs Mike Wheele in the methods of spot welding, a fundamental skill necessary to all shop stu- dents. 84 Senior Keith Af- feld uses the hori- zontal milling machine to cut a groove in a metal project he is making during machine shop. Mr. Pollock s machine shop students sometime instruct shop theory boys in the uses of shop equipment. The metal lathe is the topic of this discussion. Mechanical drawing students in Mr. Rhode ' s class seem en- grossed in perfecting their sketches. VHS recognizes needs of industrial program Industrial Arts was one area of VHS study designated to undergo a curriculum revision over a number of years. Accordingly, a shop theory class, taught by Mr. Ronald Pollock, was introduced into the program of 1967-68. A system wherein shop students would receive credits while gaining job experience at the various steel mills and similar industries might soon become a real- ity. Mr. Pollock’s three-hour machine shop course again proved very beneficial to the vocational student. Mr. Charles Praed, a new VHS instructor, taught all general shop and general metal classes, while Mr. Robert Rhoda instructed the boys in architectural and mechanical drawing skills. Several of the repair jobs needed around the buildings were done by the shop classes. In order to encourage more participation in vocational industrial studies, VHS joined the Vocational Industrial Club of America. Architectural drawing students. Marc Komblith, ]ohn Luke, and Bill Magyar compare lohn Harden s construction plans with a model which was made last year. 85 Driver’s Training urges safety as students seek licenses Once a week the driver ' s training students piloted a Ford Galaxie dual-control car in and around the vicinity of Valparaiso while Mr. Stokes instructed. During the one-hour period each of the four trainees drove approximately fifteen minutes. Driving through- out the community, the students encountered most traffic situations and road conditions. Defensive driving was strictly emphasized. In the weekly classroom session, the students viewed instructional films and discussed the material in their text. Sports- manlike Driving. After completing the course, most students were well on their way toward acquiring an Indiana operating license. With a little extra help from his back seat drivers, a trainee warily turns the driver training car around in the teacher parking lot. Larry Gabbert, Dennis Schoenfelt. Mike LaBrie, and Steve Phipps recognize the importance of driving rules and auto maintenance as well as driving skill. Veatrice Vandrey and (ill Marquardt look to their upcoming driver ' s test, and study Indiana ' s operating manual. A feature of Mr. Stokes ' first semester Drivers ' Training course was the inspection of the equip- ment used in changing a flat tire. 86 Having studied a unit on the human skeleton. Larry Watt sketches the bone structure of the pelvis and labels the parts with their proper names. Michele Channel! and Tom Feld- haus study Mr. Sweet ' s wooden model illustrating the action of human joints. Mr. Sweet required his Health and Safety students to keep thorough study notebooks, which served as guides . Safeguarding valuable health — a concern in all walks of life Mr. Sweet, Health and Safety instructor, emphasized the importance of this course by stating that “Regardless of one’s occupation, his health is most essential.” During this one- semester course, students examined the struc- ture and functions of the human body and dis- cussed good health practices. In addition to employing the usual charts, better knowledge of the muscular and skeletal structure was gained through dissection of a cow ' s ankle, knee, and hip joints. Information on other systems was acquired through the inspection of such organs as the heart and lungs. Since this knowledge is so important, the state has made Health and Safety mandatory before graduation. Health and Safety students investigate the structure of a cow ' s eye by cam- paring the specimen to diagrams in their text. 87 Susan DuFallo and Susan Dittman catch up on class notes from Miss Warner ' s Home Nursing course. In Advanced Foods class. Miss Warner supervises Cathy Standi- ford and Sally Belaschky. who are making holiday cookies. The home economics classes provided refreshments for an after- school Christmas party for the faculty. Girls prepare for home of their own Through the study of meal management, child care, and sewing, home economics students pre- pared themselves for their future responsibilities as homemakers. For experience in the techniques of public grace, students in meal management served Wassail, a hot cider drink, to members of the faculty attending a home economics-sponsored Christmas party. A detailed study of common dis- eases and their treatment was the primary con- cern of the nursing and child care classes. Girls participating in home management discussed the wisest use of time, money, and personal effort in household endeavors, and the tasteful combina- tion of color in interior decorating. In advanced clothing classes, taught by Mrs. Elma Lou Looft and Miss Jean Warner, students fashioned wool suits and examined trends in men’s fashions. The textile class, a new course designed for the stu- dent who had completed all other areas, studied good taste in upholstery, draperies, and carpets. Clothing projects required the mastery of several techniques, from pat tern layout to shrinking wool. 88 Dawn Goodpastor, Linda Pfledderer, Lillian Ozellie. and Nina Butz study the weaving patterns involved in different styles ol throw rugs.

Craig Hiser was one of several junior boys who served as spotters and demonstrators for the tumbling program in Mr. Sweet ' s gym classes. Mr. Sweet ' s sixth hour gym students engage in some rough-and tumble pre-class practice. Physical education develops healthy bodies for alert minds At VHS, physical education classes are orien- tated around the belief that healthy bodies are conducive to alert minds. All students, excluding members of the marching band, are required to complete two years of physical education. The sports involved in both Mrs. Frost ' s and Mr. Sweet’s gym classes were not solely intended to develop physical coordination, but also to gener- ate sportsmanship and teamwork. Efforts in gymnastics and tumbling were most helpful in improving individual strength and grace. An elective gymnastics class, which originated the latter half of last year, was again instructed by Mrs. Frost during the fourth hour. Both boys’ and girls ' classes exercised in the fields of softball, field hockey, track, volleyball, and basketball. Through physical education, students will come to appreciate physical fitness and sportsmanship. Before starting basketball tourneys, sophomore gym students learn some of the fundamentals, such as pivoting. Mr. Sweet ' s gym students dodge volley balls thrown during a lively game of bombardment.” one of their favorite activities. 90 Linda Rager.oneof Mrs. Frost ' s gym students, performs a limber during A bewildered basketball referee eyes the unorthodox third-hour gym class.

Brightened art room encourages creativity A colorful, zoo-like visage greeted visitors to the art room this year. An eight-foot giraffe stood ar- rogantly in a corner, while paintings of wierd, un- definable creatures dotted the walls. Mr. Cain, the art instructor, donated much of his time to paint- ing the walls of the art room. The students learned techniques of achieving realism in pen and ink sketches; however, the ab- stract was also emphasized through paintings and paper construction. In the early autumn, several students displayed works of this type in the Por- ter County Art Fair. Later, the classes employed their new kiln in the production of ceramics and the enameling process. Margie Berrier and Paul Tanck experiment with linoleum block printing in Mr. Cain ' s sixth period art class. Becky Vickers ' Flower Power” and Lenny Schoenfelt ' s clay and metal sculpture typify the artistic achievements created in the redecorated art room, where Amy Nevitt is seen rolling ink for her block print. 92 During most of the day the library is used as a senior study hall: but. any student may obtain a pass to use its materials during his own study period. The library is always open after school. During her first year as secretary to Mr. Gardin. Mrs. Stokes also scheduled the deployment of audio-visual equip- ment. Growing VHS library undergoes more change Student Librarians Linda Alston. Charlene Wozniak. and Lynette Pion file card catalog cards for the books purchased this year. Providing a place for silence and contempla- tion. the school library offered an abundant supply of books for research, leisure reading, and quiet study. This year an addition of shelves lined the east wall of the library accommodating the fiction books that were previously housed in the old study hall. Last winter the room was completely carpeted to reduce noise. The guidance library, now in its second year at Valpo, was an invaluable source for college information and catalogs. Mr. Gardin, the librarian, aided students in finding magazine articles, pamphlets, and other refer- ences for research papers and various projects. Mrs. Stokes, secretary to Mr. Gardin, attended to the filing, typing, and cataloging. Student li- brarians assisted by locating books and trying to maintain an orderly arrangement of reference ma- terials. Mr Ronald Gardin. librarian, is responsible for all facets of the school library and the audio-visual equipment. 93 Concert band receives state-wide distinction Under Mr. Robert Miller’s direction, this year ' s band was kept unusually busy. The concert band enjoyed the privilege of being the only high school group invited to perform at the Indiana Music Educators Convention. Leaving a day early for this appearance, the band also performed for the Brazil Junior and Senior High Schools. By compiling a total of 444 gold medals at the NISBOVA district Solo and Ensemble Contest, VHS band students broke the previous school record of 333. In state com- petition 19 out of the 25 individuals entered earned superior ratings, thus establishing one of the best per- centage records in Indiana. The entire concert band performed at the NISBOVA state contest held at Merrill- ville on March 30. When VHS musicians weren ' t busy representing Valpo at contests, they formed the March- ing Vikings, who entertained at the half-time of home football games and participated in the United Fund and Homecoming parades. By way of tradition, the band also presented a Christmas concert and a spring program for the public’s entertainment. The Band Boosters aided all of these causes by sponsoring the annual ham dinner and selling refreshments in the “Dog House and its new counterpart, the Puppy Hut.” Band Boosters and members cooperated in sponsoring the annual ham dinner at Thomas Jefferson Cafetorium. Realizing that practice is the key to perfection. Mr. Robert Miller listens carefully to the intonation of each instrument as he conducts the concert band. Qualifying for All-State Band this year were Larry Rigg. drums: Rich Coolman. baritone: Stu Deuring, clarinet: and Bob Honzik. trumpet. Accustomed to the ring of lively music, the band room appears un- usually lonely with the absence of its young musicians. 1967 68 PEP BAND — Front row: D. Beach. L. Rigg. R. Felten. Second row: S.

Those students who enjoyed singing shared their talents with the entire school and community through the VHS choir program. Appearing in several NISBOVA contests, these songsters had the opportunity to earn recognition for their spirited efforts. In the state finals at Butler University eight of the ten entries received superior ratings and succeeded in establishing one of Indiana ' s best high school percentage records. On March 30, the concert choir, the girl’s glee club, and several ensembles performed at the state group contest in Merrillville. In addition to preparing contest mater- ial, VHS ' s choral groups presented three public con- tests. Once again the Carolers, a small group of select choir members, performed at local banquets, meetings, and school convocations. New to the choir program this year was the Belles, an ensemble composed of nine members of the girls’ glee club. During Easter vacation the concert choir participated in a two-day performance tour of neighboring cities. The VHS vocal groups com- pleted their busy 1967-68 schedule by enjoying a well- deserved visit to a Chicago musical. 1967-68 CHIOR - Front row. ). O ' Brien. T. Mundy. L. Guild. B. Fryer. L.

Student Council improves VHS discipline and appearance By developing new policies and carrying out projects to im- prove the physical appearance of VHS, the 1967-68 Student Council continued in the precedent established by last year’s active governing body. Headed by Larry Clifford, president; Bill Nielsen, vice-president; Jeanie Johnston, secretary; and Mike Weiss, treasurer, the Council discharged its traditional duties of reviewing organization activities, maintaining the Flower Fund, and allotting bulletin board space. For the first time in VHS history, a Student Court was enacted to discipline certain violations of school law. Operating under the super- vision of Mr. Doane, the seven members of the Court were appointed by the class officers. In an effort to enhance the landscaping of the high school’s lawn, Student Council mem- bers replaced the outgrown shrubbery. They also adopted a design for a VHS billboard that is to be placed in the northeast corner of the school lot. As Student Council sponsors, Mrs. Heckman, Mr. Hildreth, and Mr. Doane assisted the members in all of these endeavors. At the formal installation of the Student Gouncil. Mr. Doane administers the oath of office to President Larry Clifford, who in turn gave the pledge to the new Student Council members. Larry Clifford. Student Council president, conducts a weekly meeting in Room 125.

Honor Society decides future service programs Among the newer organizations formed at VHS is the National Honor Society, whose charter was granted in the spring of 1967. Five percent of the junior class and ten per- cent of the senior class may hold membership in this organization during a single academic year. An additional twelve senior members and sixteen junior members selected this year boosted the society’s enrollment to forty- five. Considering scholarship, character, ser- vice, and leadership, the faculty chose from junior and senior students maintaining a B average. At the induction ceremony held during a school convocation, several VHS stu- dents were cited for their notable achievements in each of the above selection qualifications. In recognition of his outstanding service as an educator, Mr. Telle became the first person to receive an honorary membership from the VHS chapter of the National Honor Society. One of the future projects discussed by the society concerned a book exchange that would be operated by the members and would handle the sale of all used texts.

Student volunteers undertake office duties The service organizations have always cheerfully filled various tasks around the school. Guidance office girls worked closely with Mrs. Ransom, filing cards and recording student information. Girls working in the attendance office collected attendance slips each morning, typed and delivered absentee lists to the teachers, and recorded the names of absent students. Student secretaries served mainly as typists to their assigned teachers, while girls stationed in the coach ' s office answered telephones and typed sports information. It was the duty of the student nurse to record the illnesses of the students reporting to her, and to release them to the office, classroom, or home. Student librarians were responsible for shelving books and assisting students in locating references. Anyone desiring information pertaining to vocational schools and colleges could obtain these materials through the guidance librari- ans. STUDENT SECRETARIES — Front row. N. Wachhoiz. C. Frogge.

FTA acknowledges future by fostering teaching vocations Under the sponsorship of Mr. Roger Williams and Mrs. Mary Edna Bowman, the Future Teachers of America completed another successful year of ex- ploring teaching careers. FTA officers, Martha Bow- man, president; Teri Mundy, vice-president; and Nancy Conklin, secretary-treasurer, ordered films and engaged guest speakers for the monthly meetings. Three of this year’s guest speakers were Mrs. Gretchen Randle, an instructor at Thomas Jefferson Elementary School, Miss Linda Brobst, a teacher of the fifth grade at Memorial School, and Mr. Brent Froberg, a VHS alumnus who is presently an instructor at Ohio State University. The Cadet Teaching program was open to any in- terested senior members of the FTA. In order to gain first-hand insight into teaching responsibilities, these students assisted the adult teachers at various elemen- tary schools for one hour a day during one semester. Their duties included helping the teacher grade papers, giving individual aid to the young students, and occa- sionally taking over the class. Throughout its years as a VHS organization the FTA has inspired many of its members to continue their education and attain a teach- ing degree. During the introductory meeting, FTA members wait to pay their annual dues of $1.00. With these funds the organization renewed their national charter. Preparing to present a filmstrip at the monthly FTA meet- ing are officers Martha Bowman, president: Mr. Roger Williams, sponsor: Nancy Conklin, secretary-treasurer; Mrs. Mary Edna Bowman, sponsor: and Teri Mundy. vice- president. Mr. Brent Froberg, an instructor at Ohio State University, speaks about college education curriculum to interested members of the FTA. 104 Carole Learning espe cially enjoyed assisting her Northview first graders during their Valentine party.

The purpose of this organi- zation is to confront political situations in the light of American history. Through informal dis- cussions the members debated current issues and policies involving the U. S. government, and thereby prepared themselves for adult voting privileges. During the second semester the club visited meetings of the city council and school board. The members also attended Valparaiso University’s “Week of Challenge, March 17-23. This program presented current national contro- versies through such speakers as Senator Vance Hartke and Gary’s Mayor Richard Hatcher. Be- cause of limited time and the problems of organizing a new activity, the officers of the Government Club did not see all of their plans completed, but they have presented valuable ideas for next year ' s group. Political journalism is the topic of Karen Brobst ' s address to her fellow Government Club members. President Rick Shattuc presides at a Government Club meeting in Room 228 . Members attended civic lectures that commented on current political Issues. The first officers of the VHS Government Club were Carol Rueter, secretary; |eff Barber, vice-president: Gail Dogan. treasurer: Rick Shattuc. president: and Mr. Vendo Toming, sponsor.

This year ' s Science Club officers were |im Roe, vice- president; Steve Phipps, president: Chuck White, treasurer; and Deb Armstrong, secretary. Science enthusiasts explore old and new wonders Science Club activities did not get underway until the second semester; nevertheless, the enthusiastic mem- bers managed to complete a number of projects. After recognizing lasar energy as an interesting area of study, they invited Professor Manning, head of the Valparaiso University Physics Department, to attend one of their meetings and speak on the subject. Though a rather harmless looking contraption, their homemade linear accelerator” earned the nickname of atom smasher.” Later in the year, their study of ecology was supplemented by a colorful film program and a field trip to Indiana Dunes State Park in spring blossom. The organization also enjoyed visiting Chicago’s aquarium, planetarium, and Museum of Science and Industry. By June the science enthusiasts had investigated topics ranging from physics to oceanography. Increasing discoveries in the science of mental diseases also sparked discussions among mem- bers interested in psychology and social work. 107 Performing arts stir again in VHS Because it lacked consistent sponsorship, the Drama and Debate Club experienced a rather trying, but. nevertheless, successful third season at VHS. Mrs. Katherine Clark temporarily replaced Miss Rebecca Connors as sponsor in October, and under her guidance President Paul Woidke directed the organization’s first play. The Ugly Duckling. This delightful one-act comedy was enjoyed by all of the 200 people who attended its singular performance at Thomas Jefferson Cafetorium. The seven-member cast was composed entirely of Dra- ma and Debate Club members. After Mrs. Clark re- signed from her post, the club faced disunion, until Mr. Wesley Maiers, Mr. Bernard Butt, Mrs. Jean Heckman, and Mr. Glen Ellis agreed to fill the vacancy. During this second semester Drama and Debate staged the second annual March Madness variety show. Guided by the show ' s warm reception last year, the club presented the program on both March 22 and 23. Participation was open to all VHSers, and all entries were auditioned before a qualifying panel of students and teachers. With these two presentations the Drama and Debate Club succeeded in reviving the performing arts around VHS. By continuing and expanding its operations, the club may become a permanent asset, whose productions the entire community will eagerly look forward to. Paul Woidke, president of the Drama and Debate Club, con- ducts a bi-monthly meeting in Room 207. Mr. Maiers. Mr. Butt. Mrs. Heckman, and Mr. Ellis sponsored the club during the second semester. The 1967-68 Drama and Debate officers were Karen Brobst, vice-president; Janet Vorwald, treasurer; Carolyn Barnard, secretary; and Paul Woidke, president. 108 Rick Shattuc. Larry Clifford .

GAA athletics provide fitness and recreation As in previous years, GAA introduced sophomores to its pro- gram through the Coke-tail party. The initiation ceremony that followed shortly included a trek downtown by the raggedy and garlic-bedecked inductees. Meeting every Friday evening, the girls participated in seasonal sports and year-round gymnastics. Bowling was enjoyed by the members who took part in the Telegraphic Bowling Meet on Monday afternoons. As one of the winter activities, the women of the faculty challenged the girls to a volleyball match. A basketball tournament was also played between all VHS sophomore, junior, and senior girls who wished to participate. Not only did GAA foster athletic activities, but they also sponsored social functions, including a swim party at the YMCA and the annual Sadie Hawkins Dance. At the year- end banquet, several of the girls were awarded charms for their industrious service to the organization. At the GAA Christmas party. Janet Smith.

Valpost seeks to enkindle interest in school affairs This year the bi-monthly Valpost attained a distribution of about four hundred. As in pre- vious years, the staff attempted to present facts and ideas that would stimulate interest and par- ticipation in school activities. Editor-in-chief Karen Brobst and Business-manager Barb Bar- nett returned from Indiana University’s Journa- lism Workshop well prepared to launch new ideas in the production of the newspaper. Hav- ing graduated from Texas Women’s University with credits in journalism, Mrs. Clark, the new faculty advisor, proved very helpful to the staff. In the feature department, “Steele’s Amuse- ments,” a column written by Tom Steele, added the touch of humor that students enjoy. As sports editor. Rich Coolman kept VHSers abreast of the latest happenings in athletics. To keep students aware of scholastic opportunities, “Counseling Corner became a regular feature. Valpost also published interviews with teachers and students who have participated in outstand- ing activities. Advertising receipts is the concern of the Valpost business staff of Peggy Lindberg. Jim Roe. Debbie Arm- strong, Barbara Barnett, and Sally Belaschky. 113 Valenian explores patterns of unity and uniqueness Using the theme Unity in Diversity,” the Valenian staff, composed of seven editors and twenty depart- mental assistants, endeavored to shape a yearbook that would accurately portray VHS today.

As the or- ganization ' s new sponsor, Mr. Martin Miller assisted the officers in planning special projects. Throughout the year the Hi-Y continued to support Bal Sang Man, their adopted Korean orphan. By acting as ushers at all home basketball games, the members performed a necessary school service. Group visits to various com- munity churches were also a fundamental part of the Hi-Y program. During the winter months, the club pre- sented the annual Christmas Dance whose theme was “Mistletoe and Melody.” A Hi-Y-faculty basketball game, featuring a mystery player, was enjoyed by the large number of VHSers who attended the event on January 29. The October hayride and March swim party were activities open only to members and their dates. Hi-Y week. May 12-18, encompassed several club ac- tivities. The boys again attempted to gain a victory over the faculty, this time by competing in a softball game. A dance and the club banquet completed the organiza- tion’s energetic 1967-68 program.

As officers, Sally Belaschky, president; Nancy Anderson, vice-president; Gail Dogan, secretary; and Nancy LaCount, treasurer, established plans and dates for all service and money-raising projects. In order to bring cheer to some of the city’s un- fortunate, V-teen members gave a Halloween party for Vale Day School children and a Christ- mas party for the youngsters of the Shults-Lewis Children ' s Home. The profits of an autumn rum- mage sale and several bake sales provided the funds for these community-minded programs.

Yielding an exceptional $200, the 1968 King of Hearts Dance proved a lift to the Heart Fund and a credit to the V-teens. For this charitable dance held on February 9, the gym was garbed in a Valentine setting of red and white. Trees laden with little foil hearts bordered the path to the throne, whose white backdrop glittered with cupids. A special white “tree” was a popular spot, where couples paused to carve” their initials into its paper bark. At 10:00 the seven members of the court were escorted to their royal positions by V-teen officers and board mem- bers. As runner-up in the school-wide election.

Pep organizations unite behind VHS athletics Commanding a membership of 250 girls and 100 boys, the Pep Club remained the largest of all VHS organiza- tions. It served to unite the entire student body behind team efforts, thereby making athletic programs an expres- sion of school spirit and character. Throughout the year, colorful posters informed students of all sports activities. During the football season, goal post decorations and the paper football hoop were made by club members. At all home basketball games, green gloves and beanies were sported by the girls’ cheering block and green ties were worn by the boys. This year, ribbons bearing the picture of an individual player and a slogan for a certain game appeared to remind VHSers of school spirit. Leading the students in organized yells were the six varsity cheer- leaders and their junior varsity counterparts. VHS’s tra- dition of polished cheerleading required the girls to en- gage in long hours of practice. Junior varsity tryouts were held in the fall and varsity elections in the spring. By providing the noise behind the cheers, the Pep Band created the vibrant mood demanding Viking victory in Boucher gym. Bus rides to the Carmel Holiday Tourney were provided with funds from the girls’ Pep Club treasury. Once again the club sponsored the Homecoming and Spring Beauty dances with the help of its sponsors, Mr. Scott, Mr. Loomis, and Mr. Herrick.

A skit presented that afternoon by the same jovial group featured a celestial battle between “Valpo Angels” and Froebel Devils.” That night, during the game ' s half-time, the girls comprising the Home- coming Court were chauffeured around the field, while their school activities were announced by the Pep Club game chairman, Cheryl Frogge. As an add- ed feature, cars decorated by various school organi- zations joined the parade. Both junior high bands accompanied the VHS marching band in the playing of “Grand Old Flag and “America, the Beautiful.” With a resurgence of Viking power in the final min- utes of the game, Valpo defeated Gary Froebel 18-14. Delayed by the lengthy game, the dance got under way at 10:00. Chalk murals and a lighthouse beauti- fully highlighted the theme of “Harbor Lights.” At 11:00, Student Council President Larry Clifford pre- sented the members of the 1967 Homecoming Court and announced Becky Marrell as queen and Karla Hiser as princess.

VHS teammates tackle the ball carrier at a daily junior varsity football scrimmage. ’67 gridders receive Eastern Division title At the close of this year, VHS withdrew from the Northwest Indiana Conference; however, this final year in the conference was highlighted by the capture of the Eastern Division football crown. In an exciting match on November 3, the Viking gridders downed second- place Hobart 7-0. On the following Friday night at Boucher Field, the VHS football squad faced East Chicago Roosevelt to determine the conference championship. Unfortunately the Vikes were defeated 39-21, but a magnificent season ' s record of 8-1 stands to the team ' s credit. The only loss suffered by the gridders in regular season play was effected by Lew Wallace in the opening game. In one of the most thrilling contests of the 1967 season, Valpo conquered Froebel 18-14 to climax a beautiful Homecoming. A number of the team ' s seniors were honored by being named conference all-stars. Mike McBain and Bill Nielsen made first string, Dave Wasemann and Tom Hart were included in the second lineup, and Dave Heffernan, Dave Garbison, Bob Ahl- grim, Jeff Williamson, Paul Kassinits. and Pat Soliday received honorable mention. Center Bill Nielsen was the first gridder in VHS history to receive both the tackling trophy and the star award. An autumn of hard work and the competent coaching of Tom Stokes, Bob Rhoda, and Chuck Stanier will be remembered as in- valuable factors that made the 1967 football season one of the most outstanding in recent years.

By capturing thirteen out of fifteen conference meets, the cross country squad earned a fourth in the conference standings. In the sectional the Vikes placed fifth, and in the Pike Harrem Karum Invitational they ran third. Throughout the season, the team practiced and hosted home meets at Forest Park. A total of thirteen boys composed the varsity squad, while eight sopho- mores ran for the junior varsity. Since only five runners, Mike Saylor, Paul Seelig, Dan Rhoda, John Schnure, and John Hannon, graduated this year, prospects for next fall look promising. The junior varsity completed their season, seizing ten victories out of nineteen contests. Coach Evar Edquist has now served four very successful years with the VHS harriers, who had the honor of holding the state crown in 1966. Warm-up exercises before practice are essential to the cross country squad in chilly autumn weather. Clothed in heavy warm-ups, the harriers frequently jogged along city streets as part of the conditioning for this rugged fall sport. A routine exercise of the Cross Country team includes scaling the hills of Forest Park. 134 VARSITY CROSS COUNTRY — Front row: D McGuirl. J. Hannon. M. Brown. Second row: D. Rhoda. J. Larr. W.

Led by senior lettermen George Bogan, Chuck White, Jim Brown, and Don Bliss, the tennis squad provided many thrilling moments for its grow- ing number of supporters. Tom Lutze and Chuck White qualified for the second round of the Con- ference Singles Tournament held at Gilroy Courts in Gary; Chuck White also played his way to the second round of the IHSAA sectional at LaPorte. In its three-year VHS history, tennis has climbed from the “rock bottom to a comparatively impressive season.

Among the more exciting games of the season were the near Viking upsets of Gary Roosevelt and Gary Tolleston, two highly rated teams. However, the most memorable contest of the entire season was VHS’s loss to Chesterton in the championship game of the sectional. Trailing the entire game, the Vikes tied the score in the final minute, but they could not mus- ter the points for a victory. This marked the first time in twelve consecutive years that Valpo has dropped its sectional, but a fine record remains to VHS ' s credit. As a team the Vikes compiled an outstanding free throw percentage of .781 and a field goal percentage of .448. Of those boys who shot at least two free throws per game, Paul Seelig led the team with an .857 percentage. Individual scoring honors also went to Paul, who averaged 17.2 points per game. Steve Gast led in the rebounding department with 221. Since Bill Shriver and Paul Seelig are the only graduating seniors, Coach Virgil Sweet has great hopes for the eight returning lettermen whose playing experience will greatly strengthen next year’s squad. Posting an excellent season record of fourteen wins and five losses. Coach Dale Ciciora ' s junior varsity also offers several promising candidates for the 1968-69 team.

Swimmers continue conference-leading tradition VHS’s swim team completed another excellent sea- son, under the guidance of its new coach. Skip Bird. The tankers were undisputed conference champions, boasting a 9-0 record in conference dual meets. At the conference swim meet in Munster on February 3, Valpo dominated the contest, winning six of the nine events and placing second in the remaining three. Tom Clark earned two firsts in the individual 200 and 100 yard freestyles. Paul Bretscher led the field in both the 200 yard , individual medley and the 400 yard freestyle. Dean Clendenin won the 100 yard backstroke and Lenny Schoenfelt took the 100 yard breaststroke. The Viking 400 yard freestyle relay team also received a first place medal. In the sectional at LaPorte, Valpo placed third and qualified seven tankers for state competition — Tom Clark in the 50 yard freestyle, Dean Clendenin in the 100 yard backstroke, Paul Bretscher in the 400 yard freestyle, and the 400 yard freestyle relay team of Steve Conover, Eric Learning, Bill Eichelberg, and Tom Clark. With only three seniors leaving and eleven lettermen returning next year, VHSers can expect another fine swim team next winter. After capturing the conference crown and doing an outstanding job in the conference swim meet, the elated tankers toss Coach Bird into the Munster High School pool. 143 Viking grapplers compile winning record By posting a ten win and four loss record, the wrestling squad has attracted even more sup- porters for this exciting sport, now in its eleventh year at VHS. Under the direction of Coaches Sid Reggie and Chuck Stanier the Viking grapplers fought their way to a third place ranking in the conference. Tim Smurdon, John Hannon, and Dave Eaton earned individual conference titles in their respective weight classes. In the sec- tional, the Vikes placed fourth as a team and qualified three boys for regional competition. Ron Bluhm, Dave Eaton, and John Hannon repre- sented VHS in this event by taking three third place ribbons. John Hannon was awarded a trophy for compiling the most pins and the most take-downs of the team. Seven varsity lettermen will be returning to lead next year’s squad to another outstanding season. This year’s junior varsity record of eight wins and three losses also reflects the determination of the Viking wrestlers. Sophomore Bob Hannon led the team in pins and take-downs. |ohn Hannon. 95-lb.
