Northeast High 1952 Yearbook

Hello there! It is not strange that I should be asked to speak to you on the opening page of your annual. Perhaps you do not recognize me, althor,gh I have always been with you. My presence is in every phase of your school life, in every organization, assembly, play, revue and operetta. I have been present at every game where I seem to find myself more at home than anywhere else.

Yes, these activities help to build me strong and in return my aim is to build character, ambition and enjoyment in your school life, and, yes, even for years into your futures.

Students of Northeast you know me well-I have followed you through happiness and sorrow, victory and defeat-I am with you now-I will always be with you, for I am School Spirit.

And we all feel the same about our high school days. We remember our first years in Northeast, some as seventh graders and others as tenth graders.

Traveling to Topeka for the National high school press convention was a memorable experience for five of the budd ing young jo urnalists The y had a chance to compare ·their work with other s chools throughout the nation and brought home new ideas from the clinics and panels

Poking into past history, predicting the future and dramatizin g the present is not only the work of the Northeastern staff but also of the beginning journalists.

As we observe these busy pupils, we might see Bill McKinney thoughtfully eating paste, Bob Cook typing with one finger, Peg Mathers chattering, Howard Thrapp chuckling over a little "Jool" he has just written and many others as industrious as these.

Having learned a little about putting a paper together the cubs went to the NHSPA convention and were introduced to many new i deas Some of these they used in the two editions of the Northeastern which they published, one the first of second semester and the other at the end of the year.

Teamwork and cooperation are major factors in a newspaper staff and this group has them at work and play

The N club membership is composed of Northeast football, basketball and track participants who have earned letters in these competitive sports in compliance with the rules and regulations governing their issuance After the necessary initiation formalities they are officially recognized as active N club members. The main goal of this organization is to promote good sportsmanship and better athletics at Northeast.

Each spring the N club collaborates with the pep club for a picnic to show their apprecia-

tion for the moral support given them during the sports contests of the current season

The football and basketball queens and their attendants are presented by members of the club at their respective dances. The presentation of the annual N club carnival is also one of their projects to incorporate their ideals in others

Ed Johnson and Bun Galloway are sponsors of this group.

With 53 vivacious members, composed of 25 seniors , 15 juniors , 8 sophomores and honorary members, it is no wonder that the Northeast Rockettes did such a splendid job of cheering the team on to their many victories this year.

To foster school spirit, promote good sportsmanship end serve Northeast High at all times are purposes which the pep club more than fulfilled. Mrs. Helen Krause and Mrs. Velma Snook sponsored the club , escorting them on trips and giving advice on projects undertaken.

Traveling to out-of-town games on chartered buses proved to be fun for all. Selling concessions at games, avoiding demerits and attending dozens of meetings along with yelling themselves hoarse will also be remembered by the 1951-1952 Rockettes

The Rockettes were proclaimed the peppiest organization with the most ori<;iinal yells represented at the state basketball tournament by sportswriters from several different newspapers . This was a great honor for the girls as well as their sponsors.

In order fo help organize pep clubs in out-oftown schools, the NE club sent copies of their constitution upon the request of the schools

game of the season, the band also went to out-of-town games at F remont and York Their unceasing work at the games did not end until the stand at the state tournament was completed. Not to be forgotten are the parades that the ban d marched in, the State Fair parade , fall opening , and the Christmas parade . There is, however , another side to the band ac-

One of Northeast's busiest organizations, the orchestra , has also become one of the finest and best known in the state. Participating in the Mid-East music festival at Beatrice was one of the most outstanding accomplishments of this group . Frank A . Piersol , festival guest conductor from Iowa State university, commended the orchestra highly for its performance and appearance.

Under the direction of David Fowler , the 5 2piece group provided entertainment at the opening ses s ion of the Teacher's convention and demonstrated their talents at the first semester open house. Adding to the solemnity of the annual Christmas program, they played several selections and accompanied the group caroling. The orchestra took part in two vesper concerts , and in one combined with the Lincoln high school orchestra

"All right , let's take it at letter C ," says Davie Fowler as the orchestra goes through one of it ' s daily rehearsals This i s j ust a typical scene to be found in the hard working group known as the

rrrl.uML

Since an operetta isn ' t an operetta without an orchestral accompaniment , Mr. Fowler and his crew of musicians worked before and after school to aid the choir in the production of "The Mocking Bird." Furnishing a musical interlude between acts of the all-school plays was just another of the many engagements, as was the providing of processional music for May day and commencement. The climax to

fl basic section of the orchestra is the woodwinds . Composed of flutes , clarinets and basson , they have a definite part in the balance of the organization

a hectic but successful season came with the spring concert.

To furnish in div idua l instruction for string players not taking private lessons, a new program was added this year. Under the guidance of Morris Collier, various small groups practiced daily to improve intonation and technique.

Ready to call t he meeting to order are these first semester leadership officers Jim Pardubsky , treasurer; Marilyn Schnieber , president ; Georgia Clark , secretary, and Ron Wright , vice president.

What makes it tick?

Many have wondered this about junior high lea d ership Is it the exchange a s semblie s with Ha v elock? Red Cross activitie s ? Spot-light s ?

Helping a European orphan? The lea d er s hip sponsored civic league trip? Partie s ?

Angie Holbert , second semester leadership secreary , has her pencil ready to record he minutes of the meeting Other officers are Larry Bryant , treasurer ; Marlice Dienes , president, and Georg ia Clark ,

Yes, but even yet the most important factor has been left out-th e student bo d y who elected these leadership representatives They have put the pep and stick-to-it - ive-ness into leadership accomplishments . They are what make the j unior high, Northeast's future leaders , " tick."

Northeast once again was represented in the state class A basketball tournament by the Rockets after winning the Mid-East and district titles.

Under the careful guidance of head basketball coach Ed Johnson, the Rockets edged past their first eight opponents Creighton Prep of Omaha broke the win streak, taking the Black and White men 40-31.

With a city championship at hand, the Rockets were still in a slump and the cross town rival , Lincoln high school, took over and skimmed past the Rockets 42-37 in a game that was nip and tuck all the way through until Lincoln rallied in the last quarter and went ahead.

The Rockets ended their season with a record of 12 wins and 4 loses. When district tournament time approached the Rockets were rated seventh place in the state.

Northeast played their first tourney game with Lincoln high, the number one rated team in the state , and the Rockets took over to upset the Links 50-4 7 knocking them completely out of the tournament and placing themselves eligible for the state tournament which came the following week.

The Rocket men went on to dump the Tigers of Falls City and gain the district championship .

The first game of the all-important state tourney was played with North Platte and Northeast edged them out in an over-time with a free throw by Arvid Barney for a score of 48-4 7 .

Fremont , the previous wearers of the state crown proved too much for the Rockets in their next game for the Black and White dropped a heart breaker to the Tigers 34-33 after the Fremonters stalled the ball for almost five minutes. Scottsbluff took the state crown away from Fremont the following night in the class A finals .

Doing most of the wheel turning for NE was Arvid Barney who made class A all state, and played fine ball during the district tournament. Other Rocket lettermen were Dave Barnes, Rich Bischof, Bob Cook , Rex Chr istenson , Kenny Forbes , Jim Haberlan, Norvan Holverson , Junior Thomas , Dave Tullis and Doc Wolfe along with John Jackson, a squad member.
