mm The Nineteen Hundred Sixty-Eight NESHONOC West Salem High School West Salem, Wisconsin We Dedicate . . . For your teacher contributions to the classroom, particularly in the department of business education, for your sincere interest in students as individuals, for your guidance and maintenance of standards, we dedicate our 1968 NESHONOC to you, Mrs. June Sletteland. Through your sympathetic understanding, your encouragement and counsel, you have directed us today and influenced our tomorrows. In addition to guidance counseling, Mrs. June Sletteland advises the school newspaper, THE PROBING PANTHER and the National Honor Society. Dedicatee and family—Mr. Art Sletteland, Mrs. June Sletteland, and Signe. 2 Ellickson Studio 4 OUR LIVES, AS TEENS, IN A WORLD OF UNCERTAINTY, ARE A SPECTRUM OF MOODS AND EXPRESSIONS. WE ENJOY THE RAPPORT OF SPECIAL FRIENDSHIPS: SHARED EXPERIENCES, VARIED EMOTIONS, MUTUAL DREAMS. WE EXPERIENCE EXHALTATION IN GOALS ACHIEVED AND VICTORIES REALIZED. OFTEN, IN A MOMENT, WE SUCCUMR TO DEJECTION AND LONELINESS. WE ARE SELDOM ALONE TO CONTEMPLATE, TO KNOW OURSELVES. 5 Reflecting the confusion of our times, we are disenchanted, even disillusioned with the world; lonely when misunderstood; insecure and bewildered when rejected. We are moved by the inspiration as well as the tediousness of those who would teach us. V et their impact is not lost upon us. We face the challenging struggle to maturity —new privileges, growing responsi hilities, and conflicting values while enduring the frustrations of restrictions, the injustices and un certainties of adolescence. • wY: Table of Contents Faculty- Administration . . 11 Activities........23 Sports............43 Seniors...........55 Underclassmen ... 67 Advertisers......74 Index.............76 9 ADMINISTRATORS AND LIONEL M.
