DEDICATION
We, the Seniors of College View High School, Lincoln , Nebraska, dedicate this 1942 VIEWPOINT to the men and boys , as well as the women and girls, who formerly attended school here, and who are now in some branch of the armed service.
It is with great pleasure that we make this dedication to those who are giving their all for this great nation of ours , the United States.
It was they , our predecessors , who helped make our school what .it is today. So, to those Americans , whether in the Army, Navy, Marines, Coast Guard , or Home Defense, we say " ON WITH VICTORY ."
THEME
Since we have had undisputed victories and championships in athletics th is year , undeniable victories in coopera ti on .in our classes and organizati o ns , and that the unmistakable cry on ever y American ' s lips today is "V ICTORY " we have chosen this as our theme fo r the 1942 VIEWPOINT
With great pleasure we leave you to enjoy your " VICTORIOUS " book .

Nat ional Honor Society
Since extra-curricular activities so often tend to supplant interest in scholarship , the College View Chapter of the National Honor Society was organ ized in 1932. This organization arouses interest in scholastic attainments by recognizing individuals who have excelled as scholars.
Each year , members of the faculty of College View High School elect those students from the junior and senior classes who have proved themselves meritorious of the honor of membership
To be eligible for membership in the National Honor Society, a student must have attended College View High School for at least one year, and he must rate
scholastically in the upper one-third of his class. Other bases for election are initiative, service, leadership , and character. Fifteen per cent of the senior class and five per cent of the junior class may be members.
In their junior year, Paul Henson and Allan Johnson, seniors, were elected. Doris Erickson, Betty Roeder, and Dorothy Walker were elected during the second semeste; of this year. One junior, Mildred Johnson , was elected at the same time.
The National Honor Society has proved advantageous to our democratic country by developing good characters, and by serving as a goal for the many stu d ents who desire the attainment of a high scholastic rating, a tangible reward in itself.

Seniors Reminisce
It seems only yesterday that we, the seniors , were freshmen with Mary Ellen Powell as president , and Elsa Brooks as secretary-treasurer. Remember those English picnics, Junior Civic League trips, and most of all the freshmen class luncheon? These were the days when our class motto was s ailing , and d idn't we? Of course , we sailed ourselves with Pau l Hens o n at the helm as skipper aided by Wesley Miller and abetted by Dor is Erickson and Dorothy Walke r right into senior high as sophomores.
That was just the beginn ing of our glorious high school career ; and along with it came a class p icn ic at Pioneer Park. And then we were juniors! whata year! With Wayne Sawyer as prexy , Bob Wohlberg , Russ Maunier, and Floyd Short as his chief handy-men, we really made the class of ' 41 prick up its ears . Of course we carried on the traditional junior-senior feud (remember the da y we hung our 'junior' sign up on the front of the school), even while we planned the junior-senior banquet. It was one perfect round-up that night, May 10 , at the Lincoln Hotel.
We made the crowd roar when we produced that rip-snortin ' melodrama , " She Was Onl y a Farmer 's Daughter ", not forgetting " It Sorr,etimes Happens " Yes, it was the junio rs that same year that started the school dances. Don ' t forget that hors e sh ow our boys put on , t o say noth ing of our mo re modern Purple and Gold ' s . Yes , it was a yea r to remember.
Senior class officers: Ivan Stern , Norma Clark , and Don Darnell Wayne Saw yer, senior class pre sident.

Senior skip-day scenes
Now we are s eniors! Thirty - four in number and l 000 in spirit. Wayne Sawyer again led the class, that is , until the wide open spaces of the west called him. Norma Clark , Don Darnell , and Ivan Stern aided him in what was a year to be remembered The year started out with a bang when we held the Purple and Gold Carnival. We know we shall never forget our royal couple for the evening , Betty Roeder and Paul Henson S om ething new was added when we began that string of joint G R.Hi-Y partie s. The school dances improved one by o ne
That play , " Laughing Gas ", didn ' t it make you laugh? Probably _ no more than the seniors did when they fooled the juniors about their skip day , that day when you could skip and no excuse was needed
Then too , we mustn ' t forget the " All Sports Banquet " , which climaxed the most successful sports s eason College View ever had. There wasn ' t a senior who wasn ' t proud of the trophies we won And why shouldn ' t they be , as they were largely responsible for winning them We've mentioned only a few of our many good times, and have said nothing of our struggling and last minute cramming for exams ; but we ' ve enjoyed it all to the nth degree.
As we leave this school for the last time as seniors , we will regret leaving , but we'll be prouder still that we have achieved distinction. At last when we walk down the aisle from the church as the Class of 1942, we ' ll look forward to the future an d conquer all!

The sophomores were not without representation in school activities. Dorothy Jeanne Moon was a reporter on the staff of
the Purple and Gold and Wayne Sherman was assistant football manager. Charles " Chick " Kinder was a cheerleader. The class had a number of pupils active in various other school organizations.

Coa c hes
Coach Emory G. Priefert' s first year at College View proved to be one of the best on the record books. At the first of the school year, he brought together eight lettermen and some likely prospects, and formed a championship football team from them. As if this wasn ' t enough for his first year, he molded from the aspirants out for basketball a team which won three trophies , nm-:iely: East Nebraska Six, Class "C" District Tournament, and Runner-up Class "C" State Tournament. He is now coaching a track team , with good prospects for a victoriou s season.
During t he four years previous to his coming to College View , Coach Priefert was a shop teacher and assistant coach of Bethany High School. He has been head coach of Peru Prep and Table Rock High Schools, and assistant coach at Fairbury. Since the coaching schools were started at the University of Nebraska, he has been a faithful attendant.
Known to all as "Snip" Priefert , his ability to get _ along wi th his young proteges, earned for him the same cooperation from the boys that he gave them.
Assistant Coach Donald 0 Hipple's " matchless " reserve teams made a record to be proud of. The purpose of the reserve teams is to learn the fundamentals of the games and to gain experience for future years. When a coach can teach the boys these things , and put out winning teams also, he is doing a fine job of coaching. This is what Coach Hipple has done, thus preparing boys for berths on the varsity squads for future teams.
Coach Hipple attended Midland College and the University of Nebraska, and was a track star in his youth
Where Honor Is Due Captain s
Floyd Short, senior , center on the varsity football squad, was chosen by his fell ow teammates as the 1941-4 2 Honorary Football Captain. He was chosen for his fine, loyal spirit, hard , clean play , and good defensive work throughout the season. Floyd has the reputation of being the hardest tackeler on the team , and was one of the fastest runners on the field. F or those reasons , Floyd was also chosen firs t string center on the East Nebraska Six Conference team , and given honorable mention on the All-State honor roll.
Along with his football ability, Floyd is an outstanding track star , being a thre~-year letterman in the latter sport.
Senior Jack Helmsing 's qu i ckness and good defensive work, along with his ability to enliven the team when the brea ks were against them , enabled him to achieve the title of Hon orary Basketball Captain.
Jack 's cooperation and ability were not fully realized until several muscles in his · collar bone were pulled during the district tournament. This was Jack's firs t year at College View , and his presence was a big factor in the Viewmen 's championship team .

Football
Pla ying an eight game schedule, believed to be the most successful ever undertaken by a College View squad, the Viewmen marched through the 1941 football season suffering only one set-back , a 7-6 defeat in the last game of the season . The powerful offensive machine rolled up 170 points to the opponents 7. The boys won the East Nebraska Six Championship title , going one step higher than they did in the previous year when they shared honors for this title with Plattsmouth. College View ' s team ranked fourteenth highest in the state .
The first encounter of the season was with Ashland on the Viewmen gridiron, ending in a 33-0 victory for the Southsiders .

In the second quarter Stern whipped a perfect pass to Sawyer for the second touchdown . Henson again swept around end , behind perfect blocking, for the final six points, ending the game in a 19-0 victory.
For the third victory , the College View steam roller got under way to crush a scrappy, clean playing Wilber eleven , 35-0 , under the lights at the Lincoln High field, October 10. The entire game found things really popping as the Viewmen marched 64 yards, with Henson lugging the mail over , and Miller converting the extra point. A short time later the Southsiders took over again with Stern throwing a pass to Sawyer for six points, and then added the extra point himself.

good again. In the final period, Miller ran 32 yards for his second touchdown, and Henson closed the scoring with a 15 yard run around left end. The game ended in a 32-0 vict9_ry for the Viewmen.
By upsetting a heavy-favored Wymore team 12-0, College View rolled up its fifth straight win of the season, under the lights on a water soaked Wymore field, October 22. In the second period, College View drew first blood on a fourth down pass from Henson to Sawyer , the touchdown pass covering 25 yards. Miller ' s extra point was low. In the final period, Henson intercepted a Wymore pass and galloped 28 yards, behind great blocking, for the final marker.
The Viewmen added another victory and rolled on toward their best season in years, as they dropped a heavier Valley eleven , 13-0, on the latter ' s field, November 7 . Although outweighed 40 pounds per man , College View first scored on a 30 yard Henson-to-Sawyer pass in the first period. Miller ' s extra point was low. Valley started a touchdown drive in the final period , but the Southsiders dug in and stopped them on the Viewmen ' s 39-yard line. A few minutes later, Henson and Miller collaborated for a 35 yard drive, with Miller going over standing up.

home field, November 14. The game was scoreless in the first half, but in the third quarter, a Henson-to-Stern pass was good for 16 yards to the opponents' 32. From there Henson and Miller alternated lugging the mail with Miller taking it over from the 4 The next play Miller ran the extra point over. A few minutes later, Wes Miller raced 21 yards, followed by a 31 yard Henson-toDarnell touchdown pass. With time running short , Plattsmouth took to the air, but Ike Stern, ace halfback, intercepted a stray pass , and behind perfect blocking raced 34 yards to score. Miller's kick was good for the extra point.
Playing inspired ball from the opening kick-off to the end of the game, .Auburn ' s underdog eleven ruined College View's hopes for a perfect season, as they won 7-6 in the Lincoln High oval, November 21. Soon after the opening kick-off, Auburn recovered a Viewmen fumbie and drove to the 6-yard line before the College View wall du g in to hold them. Henson kicked from his o wn end zone to Dick Hutton who streaked down the sidelines 45 yards before Richardson knocked him out-of-bounds one yard from pay dirt. On the next play, Hutton crashed through for the first touchdown scored against the Southsiders for the year. Wilhelm kicked the winning point. In the final period the Viewmen finally got started, with ·Henson and Miller carrying the ball down to the .Auburn's 10 yard stripe, but Auburn took over on downs. Wes Miller started tbe Purple and Golders on their touchdown way as he returned a punt to the Auburn 27 yard line from where Henson helped him lug the ball to their opponents 2 yard stripe. Henson carried it over. Miller's extra point try was wide and low. From then on the two teams battled to a standstill with College View on the defense most of the time.
When the final gun sounded on the Auburn-College View game , it also marked the closing of the Viewmen's 1941-42 football season with 7 wins and 1 defeat. Several individuals of the team had worthy honors bestowed upon them for their undenied sportsmanship and clean playing, as well as for their value to the team. The first of these honors came to Paul Henson who landed a berth on the Journal and Star's All-State second team as a quarter-back, while Wes Miller, Wayne Sawyer, Bob Richardson, scrappy Floyd Short, and big Jim Finnerty received honorable mention for their efforts

College View ' s outlook for a successful basketball season was none too bright during the first few weeks of practice , due to th e fact only five lettermen were returning to Coach Emory G Priefert. Of these , only Paul Henson was a regular of the first team of last year 's Viewmen Russ Maunier, Wesley Miller , and Ivan Stern were the other returning lettermen from C. V., while Jack Helmsing had earned a letter at Kennard , Nebraska.
The future b ri ghtened some by the fact that several of Assistant Coach Hipple ' s reserve lettermen were striving for a berth on the team.
The Vi ewmen ' s first game , December 13 , aga inst a supposedly much stronger Crete team, was expected to be mostly a pract ice game for Crete , and a game to gain experience for College View Due largely to the 15 points contributed by Henson , the tables were turned , and College View won 31-27.
The Purple and Gold ' s next game was at Geneva on December 16, and proved to be the first defeat of the season for Coach Priefert's lads. The score was 40-15, due mostly to the inability of the Viewmen to make setups Stern 's 8 points were high for the Southsiders

The Southsiders ' victory string was stretched another game January 16 , when they downed Pawnee City 29-16, on the Indian ' s home floor. A tight zone defense in the first half enabled C. V to build up a 15-4 half-time score. Stern led the Purple and Gold attack , s inking 15 points .
C. V. boys took the second obstacle on the road to another Conference Championship , when on January 20 , they traveled to Valley and dropped a large, hard fighting team 30-27. Paul Henson was eus i ly the best for the Viewmen, dropping in 14 points.

Wymore five, but a lone basket in the last 30 seconds of play, the only one made that half by the Zephyrs , was enough to defeat the Viewmen 19-17 Henson again led the scoring with 12 points , but it was Bob Richardson who tied the score just before W ymore ' s fatal basket ruined the hopes of victory for the Purple and Goiders.
The Purple and Gold of College View for the second time of the school year won the East Nebraska Six Conference Championship and trophy when it knocked off an in vading .Ashland five 31-20 on February 14th. Paul Henson hit his top mark of the season when he got 17 points during the game.

Jack Helms ing 's collar-bone was injur ed and several muscles in his shoul der were pulled when one of Bellevue ' s lar ger boys fell on him. Jack ' s aggressiveness and speed were greatly miss ed by the team , but the defens ive w o rk of litt le Richard Westbro o k filled in the spot qui te capably.
By winning the District Tournament , the Viewmen were destined to meet Dorchester in a play-off game to see who would tra,vel to the State Tournament the following week. The game was played at We sleyan and lengthened the S ou t hsiders' lates t victo ry-

During the third quarter, Culbertson played inspired ball, while C. V. ' s defense slacked just a little , but long enough for Culbertson to score 10 points in a row, which were enough for an 18 - 17 third quarter score. Until the waning moments of the game , the Southsiders matched baskets with the Champs, but could never overtake them.

Typical High School Girl
P. S Tonight the G R. Club and Hi-Y Club had a " get acquainted " party in honor of us new members.
Dear Diary:
I am so impressed, that I probably won't be able to find words to express the way I really feel. I suppose you are wondering
what I'm all agog about. It's just that the G irl Reserves held their Recognition Candle Light ing Ceremony tonight at the Union Church, and it was simply beautiful. The whole club participated in the ceremony.
Typical High School Girl
Dear Diary :
As I look back , I am so thankful that I joined the G . R. Club. It means so much to me, and I have had so many good times , and worth while experiences . There was our goulash supper at the park, covered-dish suppers at the YWCA, City-wide Conference , Christmas party with Hi-Y, Heart-sister week , City-wide date dance, and G. R. and Hi-Y City-wide conference. Then too, we had such helpful general meetings on charm , health, boy-girl relationship, etiquette , travels, clothes , and a mother-daughter tea of our own. Also, dear in my memories is the formal Senior Farewell party, and the gay old cabin retreat, which I can ' t find words to describe

Mrs. June Moore, makeup director, is caught sissyfie ing Alton Detmer for his part as Lancelot Winterspear, while Floyd Short looks on.
" Put ' em up , lady! " sayi Don Darnell , the maskec man, to Betty Roeder known as Aunt Amy Whitma:-i from Ohio.
Miss Elma Buchanan, director, and Rose A nne Moon, student director, discuss the play in genera l.
Penny and Vivian Whitman decide to spend their summer vacation in New York and bring along Aunt Amy as their chap-. eron. In Greenwich Village they find a furnished apartment in a dilapidated, but picturesque old house, which Penny adores, but Aunt Amy has a different idea She doesn ' t like the idea of renting a house that doesn ' t have a key , and with a locked closet with no key When Vivian hears about Carl Van Doren , who Chris Wynn , detective story writer who roomed in the same apartment house , says is on the radio , she decides that she wants to stay. She is trying to get on the radio, while Penny plans to go to business school.
At Chris 's suggestion they plan a getacquainted party and send Launcelot Winterspear, surrealistic poet, to get some ice cream and pickles
While the Whi tmans were gone a masked man appeared on the scene and inserted the key in the door. Olga , the Swedish maid, then appeared and seized the door key. The " black man " is Aunt Amy 's chief worry. He keeps haunting her. The others think she is imagining things , but the audience knows how to sympathize with poor Aunt Amy. When Kitty Doe, a chorus gi rl, hears Aunt Amy screaming, she comes up to see what is the matter , and announces that she and detective Ambrose Rosenbloom are to be married that night. Just then " Rosie " comes in demanding everyone not to move because Olga , the maid, had told him that there was trouble He told Kitt y the bad news that he had to walk the beat since he was dismissed for negligence in the Bauer necklace robbery case. While Penny and Chris are fixing something to eat, Penny d isc o vers the key in the closet door , and as she opens the door, a corpse falls out
The corpse is Tony Laporti ', who lived in that house just before the Whitmans moved in Judge Haley comes to marry Rosie and Kitty , but is detained for several reasons . Rosie wants to solve the "moi der " , and
something is mysterious about happenings in the house. Several times the judge threatens to call headquarters because Rosie is making a mess of things , but he never manages to call.
After long anxiety, Chris, Olga, and Rosie conclude that Tony had the necklace on him when Van Doren forced him into the closet the night before , but because of the slow death from gas, he couldn ' t get hold of the necklace until that day The Whitmans were moving in when he got into the apartment to claim it , so he couldn ' t get a chance to get to the body-until after they discovered it, and he had been trying to get the necklace ever since. When the masked man, Paul, had forced Olga to give him the necklace, she to ok it out of his pocket when they were struggling in the dark . While Penny was guarding one of the doors with Kitty, a noise was heard, and Kitty went to see what was the matter, and Penny was struck on the head. They concluded that Launcelot did it so he could get away with the suitcase . Paul and Launcelot force Chris into the closet with the gas, which killed Tony Laporti. When they let him out, he is alive-he lit a match and saved his life. Olga then lost her accent, and Chris introduced her as Patrolwoman Petersen, of the New York Police.
Rosie and Kitty get married at the stroke of twelve, and in the bargain Penny finds a romance with Chris.
The play was presented on May 1 and 2.
