school plays ... pep rallies ... club meetings.

Homecoming, school plays, pep rallies . . . there were many occasions throughout the year when Southeast displayed its peak of tradition. Needless to say, these events have meant a lot of enjoyment to us-but they represent only a small fraction of the time spent at school. The real tradition at Southeast takes its form in everyday happenings. Club meetings, football practice, even classroom discussions and assignments reveal the more subtle, yet more meaningful true school tradition.

When we look back on our high school days 10 or 15 years from now, the first things that might come to our minds will be the riotous parties we had, the successes and failures of our athletic teams, and perhap~ the all-school play of which we were a part. Ofttimes we will overlook the importance of our classroom activities and the fund 6f know ledge we gained from them. Perhaps we lose perspective on these learn-.ing experiences because we shall never have ceased to enjoy them Dances and parties are more restricted to youth; learning is only restricted to a lifetime

Indeed, there's no substitute for the traditional school activities and just plain funbut we must all take time to evaluate our own perennial tradition-education

Typical of any school, Lincoln Southeast reflects greatly the quality of the community from which it comes. Therefore, one of the most important phases of our three-year building program is the effort Southeast students have made to take their part in the activity about Lincoln. Each Knight has had to dedicate himself to this difficult program of building local confidence. Whether it be joining a city-wide council or taking a job after school or even succeeding in athleticsLincoln has taken an interest in our accomplishments. And thus we have indeed proved ourselves in making a place for Southeast in our community.

We often hear students referred to as living in a world of their own This world must be round and all-encompassing in order to be happy and successful. This refers to the balance which we all must possess to be happy-a physical, mental, and spiritual balance. Everyone needs a touch of each to prevent the others from becoming distorted Such a pleasing balance of these three seems to be a vital influence on real happiness.

During our teenage years , the three institutions which affect us most are home, church, and school. Home, the basic unit of civilizations, is the birthplace of many of our attitudes, values and our relations with others. Home must therefore compose a great deal of our rounded sphere. Church offers an answer to our eternal question "Why?"-an answer without which we could not direct our steps toward ·happiness. School attempts to cultivate those areas which are not e phasized at home or in church. School helps us to share the worlds of others that we might learn more about ourselves. Thus home, church, and school complete our sphere of existence; each contributes an invaluable "something" to our lives.

Every young person is required to attend school but why? Needless to say, we go to school to absorb facts, ideas, and attitudes which we may apply throughout our entire lives. In other words, education is the allimportant purpose for which we are attending Southeast.

But what is true education? Among these are the concepts which Rabbi Harold I. Stern developed at Southeast's Honors Convocation in October, 1957. True education is an adventure-a really exciting experience. It lies waiting to stimulate any open mind. This education is not something which one can obtain from 8 :30 to 3:15; indeed, it requires a dynamic 24-hour effort on the part of the learner. Then again, true education is risky, unforseen. Every time we open a book or read a newspaper or magazine article, we risk shattering our present ideas in the formulation of an entirely new vista or concept.

True education is really a diligent search for the truth and the light, the limitless benefits of which ring true in any man.

The future! For all of us, the future presents itself as sort of a mystery. Throughout all our high school days, we have been preparing for things to come-our education, our home and family, our life's work. But it's hard to realize that in a year or two we'll be in college and within five years many of us will be married! Families carry with them much responsibility, and although we don't very often think in terms of our own children, most of us will be parents in a very short while. A great deal of mental growth is required for parenthood-and during these few years prior to marriage we will have to develop many mature attitudes and ideas concerning our relationship with other people. At the time we marry, we should be well entrenched in our life's work, the training for which we will receive during the next few years. Indee a the next five years will be some of the most important of our lives

Behind the scen e s of any major production are those who work for long hours so that the performance will run smoothly. In society today the educational system is the greatest performance of all.

The Board of Education, which decides upon the school policies, is elected by the people of Lincoln These representatives of the people are from all branches of life: doctors, lawyers, businessmen, and housewives.

This year Glenn Yaussi is Board president and Robert Ammon vice-president. Other members are Dr. Paul Bancroft, - Robert Venner, Warren H . Parker, and Mrs. Roscoe Hill.

Serving as executive officer of the School Board and as head of the school system in Lincoln is Dr. Steven Watkins. A day's work in the life of Dr. Watkins might entail curriculum planning, interviewing teachers, or approving building plans.

Mrs. Doris Quist (English, Speech, Thalians) enjoys only the first half of football games. Mrs. Patrica Jones (English) and Mrs. Donna Stalcup (English, Debate, Cheerleaders) are also interested in football, but they prefer to watch the entire game.

Forgetful students who leave books and pencils in their lockers and misspelled words are the "pet peeves" of Mrs Mary Commers (English, Y-Teens).

Often teachers are remembered by "choice" words they use. "Tend to your own business" are such words for Miss Hattie Steinberg (Journalism, English, Clarion, Shield, National Honor Society).

the Value oF Teachers Must: Be Emphasized,

American and world history are the studies of the people and the land structure of America and the world. Southeast students are fortunate in having a social studies staff that has been to many of the places about which they teach.

Donald Wilcox (World History) and Roy Churchill (American History) were in the Navy during World War II and spent a good deal of time in the Pacific. Mr. Wilcox was stationed on the battleship USS Salt Lake City and Mr. Churchill, also in the Navy, served two years aboard the USS Metcalf. Following World War II, Thomas Douglas (Social Studies, Camera Club, English) held the rank of Corporal in the Army. He was

stationed in Alaska and later in the south- c?..Cf; east Pacific.

Reading and travel are the hobbies of Miss Grace Reiff (World History). Miss Reiff has traveled extensively throughout the United States , Canada, and Mexico. She has been in all but two of the forty-eight states. Mrs. Georgianna Compton (Social Studies, English) enjoys reading about the far-away places she has not visited. She hopes some day to travel to Germany, not because she likes it better than the other countries, but \ ' because it is the central point of Europe. , , CY,

Although his home town is · only four hundred miles from Boston, Massachusetts, William Gillies (World History , Key Club) has visited all the states except those in New England. When she is not taking care of her pet Siamese kitten, Mrs. Twila Meeks (Social Studies) rambles through her scrapbook and souvenirs from her recent trip to Portugal.

REASONS FOR STUD Y I N G

LATIN ARE MANY-John Powell, Joan Davies, Dr. Johanna Ogden

Although the languages and sciences require the greatest amount of study time, they are the most rewarding of all subjects. Progress can be charted and followed from day to day and thus many new worlds are opened.

Dr. J ohanha Ogden (Latin, German) is one of the few women in the teaching profession with a doctorate degree. She attended the University of Chicago, Smith College, Col1:1mbia University, and the University of Michigan, where she received her Ph. D.

Students who will not speak loudly enough to be heard in class, but who can screech to high heaven outside of class are the "pet peeve" of Mrs. Edna Keal (French, Spanish, Junior Red Cross).

Oscar Bretthorst (Physics, Chemistry) is an accomplished bowler. A few years ago Mr. Bretthorst bowled a 637 series which was the highest score in his league for the season. Wayne Bates, (General Science, Student Council, Social Studies) who came to Southeast from Malcolm Public Schools, is also a bowling enthusiast. Mr. Bates especially enjoys hunting "to get the one that got away last y~ar".

There are three coaches on the science staff. They are Robert Good (Biology, Basketball), Richard Goeglein (General Science, Wrestling, Football), and John Reta (Biology, Swimming). Mr. Reta and Mr. Goeglein have been varsity coaches for the past three years, and this was the second season for Mr. Good.

Offer a Major Cont:ribut:ion t:o Our Nat:ion ; ·

Such words as formulas, triangles, factoring, and bisection are common to Southeast math students. Math not only develops a quantitative perception, but it also sharpens the students' power of reasoning.

Over six years of teaching engineering have given Mrs. Lorella Howe (Trigonometry, Algebra, Geometry, Pep Club) a remarkable knowledge of all phases of math.

Among the unusual features of the faculty is the employment of two sisters Miss Dian Morgan of the guidance staff i s a recent addition to Southeast while her s ister, Miss Judith Morgan (Algebra, Pep Club), has completed her second year.

Glenn Updegraft (Math) and Gerald Frederick (Algebra) divide their leisure time between gardening and general work around the house. Mr. Updegraft said that among his many errors during his first week at Southeast was mistaking Mr. Hillman for a high school student.

Arthur Gordon (Math), Rex Mercer (Geometry), and Arthur Hedrick (Math, Industrial Art) believe that the desire to win and make Southeast a school to be proud of is the leading factor in the school spirit shown by all students.

Aside Jrom Their Many All-lmport:ant: Dut:ies

Southeast is a part of a unique· guidance program which has only been in existence in the Lincoln Public Schools for five years. This program attempts to give students an understanding of themselves and their school, its functions, purpose, and administration.

This is not only her first year at Southeast, but also the first year of teaching for Miss Dian Morgan (Guidance). Miss Morgan, a graduate of the University of Nebraska, enjoys peaceful evenings of reading and listening to her Hi-Fi.

REGISTRATION BEGINS EARLY IN THE YEAR-Bob

Richard Kirwan (Guidance), Martin Buschkamp (Guidance), and Glenn Fosnot (Guidance, International Club) all feel that the "esprit de corps" among the faculty and the students has contributed the most to the development of Southeast. Both Mr. Kirwan and Mr. Buschkamp attended Wayne State Teachers College and Mr. Fosnot received his degree from Doane College.

Nine years of guidance counseling has given Donald Darnell (Senior Guidance, Social Studies) the experience and understanding needed to work with young adults. Although his jobs as a counselor are varied, one of the most important ones is that of registering the seniors for college and preparing them to take their place in society.

Representing and directing the senior class in all school and community activities were the senior class officers. Since the 1958 graduating class was the f;rst to go completely through the senior high school, this meant special commencement exercises which took additional planning. Discussh1g further graduation plans are Dick Schmoker, president; Paulette Suder, treasurer; Bill Van Cleave, vice-president; and Carol Carney, secretary.

As Leaders of the School, the Class of 1958

Seniors! That "ever-glorious" group of teenagers have much to look back on during their three years at Southeast.

Although most of the '58 graduating class began their high school career as sophomores at Southeast, many were new this year. Among them were Yukiko Masuda of Japan and John Dobson of Argentina.

"Government of the people, by the peopl e , and for the people" was practiced by th e Student Council. Headed by seniors Rich a r d Gar linghouse, president; Tom Davies, s e cr e tary ; and Gary Gibson, treasurer, the Council decided upon and carried out plans for a new student lounge

Almost all the _.:.ub constitution s state that the president must be in the senior class. Those holding that office were Dave Myers, S Club; Mary Lou Finnigsmier~ Knightettes; Neal Higgins, Key Club. Other senior leaders included Sharon Rogers, Y-Teens; Bruce Anderson, National Honor Society; Barbara Ketelsen, Synkra-Knights; Virginia Schilling, International Club; Dick Nelson, NFL; Karen Belsheim, Junior Red Cross; Charles Tisdale, Hi-Y; and Chuck Wahl, Science Club.

Late in November the first snow of the year covered the ground with over nine inches of the "white stu f f ." While many couldn't make it to school because of the severe storm, those that did come spent the after-school hours pushing their cars out of the drifts.

Among the many parties given during the school year was the Swamp Stomp. The Key Club, as host, decorated the school cafeteria like a swamp land. One of the highlights of the party was that the music was provided by one of Southeast's custodians, Roscoe Ambers ·and his combo.

Before school had been underway more than a few weeks there were many plans for graduation and the fun that always accompanies it. One of the parties that was planned was an "Anniversary Dance" for all seniors. The dance was to celebrate the third anniversary of Southeast.

Sputnik and Laika, flying saucers and space ships, and the flu brought fame to the world and to Southeast.

Fighting the disease, Asiatic flu, over twenty-five per cent of the students missed school during the epidemic that swept through the corridors.

Campaign posters and slogans for elections bore the theme of the Sputnik, slang expressions began to be heard, and even some senior themes were written on this new and controversial subject.

During the halftime of the NortheastSoutheast football game, Homecoming, Lynn Wright and Gary Gibson were crowned 1957 queen and king. Roger Brandt and Sue Turner, '56 king and queen, crowned the new royalty and Roger presented Lynn with a dozen red roses. At the Homecoming Dance the following night, the crowning ceremony was repeated.

With each year's graduating class go many outstanding athletes, and this year was not an exception.

In the year to follow it will seem a little "empty" without Bruce Anderson, Jim Barrett, Jim Frank, Rich Garlinghouse, Gary Gibson, Bob Graham, Roger Hesson, Neal Higgins, and Hal Kennedy.

Other distingushed lettermen were Virgil Kubert, Tom Laging, Dave Myers, Bill Redmond, Dick Schmoker, and Bill Van Cleave .

Without a doubt these boys helped to bring many thrills to Southeast. Who will ever forget that victorious football season, that basketball win over Northeast, and the state wrestling and swimming meets? In their own way, every team left a record that will be hard to beat.

Among the main scholarship tests taken during the year was the University of Nebraska's Freshman Regents Exam. Bruce Anderson was the winner of the test which was taken by all those in the upper quarter of the graduating class.

Seniors Recall "Fani:abulous" High School Days

What a multitude of memories these last three years at Southeast have produced! Out of Southeast has evolved every tradition from the seemingly eternal ones to those that are the greatest thrill of the momentfrom holding dances and parties to defeating top-ranked Lincoln Northeast in basketball.

As the first class to have graduated after three years at Southeast, the seniors can look back on a fruitful high school career with many fond recollections. To be recalled are the glorious victories and the tragic .losses of our athletic teams , the big dances , the inspirational messages impressed upon them, their classmates as lifelong friends , and most important, the fact that in three years they assembled from nothing a constantly-improving , continually-progressing institution.

Portrayed on these pages are examples of each facet of the above-mentioned tradition which the Class of '58 has afforded Southeast. Each reveals some memorable phase of high school life.

Such an enviable record set by the Class of '58 shall always be a goal before those graduating in future years. Each succeeding senior class naturally aspires to accomplish more than the preceding group, but such classes of the future will have to go a long way to equal the trail in Southeast's history blazed by the Class of '58.

Southeast's Many Juniors Discovered This Year

"I wonder what it will be like to be the oldest class in the school!" ran through the minds of many juniors. As they watched their senior friends march to "Pomp and Circumstance" on June 5, they realized that they would be the class to whom the sophomores and juniors would look to for advice and example. Their days of fun and folly were growing to a close. Next year it would be a matter of constant work for perfection against tough competition Without a doubt they were now the leaders of Southeast.

Eager Sophs Found First Year at Southeast

Coming into high school was a big step, but the sophomore class soon began to play a big part in school life.

Many ambitious sophomores found interests in extracurricular activities such as drama and debate while others went out for various sports. Their talents were put to good use and assured further fame for Southeast.

Along with the fun came hard work. Their scholastic record was one that sophomore classes to follow would look to with envy. Thus, the 1960 graduating class became accustomed to the busy whirl of high school life.

Leaders in social and civic activities were the members of Student Council-the representatives of the students.

Various projects were undertaken by these students-from compiling data for a student guidebook to selling popcorn in Concessions after school.

Among the projects sponsored by the Student Council were cheerleader elections, assemblies, and student participation in Parent-Teacher-Student Association. Work was started on a student lounge to provi4e a place for students to gather during their leisure time.

Throughout the year, the Student Council acted as the link between the students and the faculty, and as Southeast's representative in dealing with other schools and with the community.

Key Club Sponsors Dances, At:hlel:ic Programs

Working in close conjunction with the Lincoln Kiwanis Club , the Key Club of Southeast promotes service to the school. Sponsorship of the printing and sale of athletic programs is one of its full-time projects. Another project was the Swamp Stomp, complete with a door prize of an automobile door. The proceeds of this dance went to help finance the proposed student lounge. An assembly act with rock-and-roll music and original lyrics was given by a group of the club members to recruit new members.

All of these varied activities helped to accomplish the objective of Key Club-wellrounded personalities

of a Really All-New Product--the 1958 Shield

Recording a year at Southeast proved to be a full-time job for the Shield staff. Theirs was a world of copy, layouts, grease pencils, pictures, captions, and headlines. Overtime work became an integral part of their job. During vacations, after school, and in the evenings, the flash of the camera could be seen in various parts of the building or at different places in the community . Shield staff members worked directly with the businessmen of Lincoln through advertising. This created an outside interest in Southeast and the Shield.

Throughout the year, the members of the staff dedicated their time and energy to present to Southeast a bigger, truly allnew 1958 Shield.

Clarion Became Bi-Weekly During 1958, with

From the journalism rooms comes the clacking of a typewriter. Reporters are making hurried trips to the office for lastminute checks on news stories, and editors are frantically proofreading and correcting long galleys. This is the day , once every two weeks, when the paper goes to the printer.

When the printed papers come back, it's time for distribution. Into the classrooms come two members of the Clarion staff, one carrying a pile of newspapers, and the other a paper punch.

To most students, this is what the Clarion means. However, behind these outer signs of activity are many hours of hard work and planning and a great deal of ingenuity. A really All-American 1958 Clarion was the result of all these ingredients.

Whether writing editorials or working closely with the printer, Editor Dick Schmoker directed the production of the new bi-weekly Southeast Clarion.

Shiny instruments, drum majorettes, and grey uniforms on a green football field marked halftime at a Southeast game-the time when the Southeast Marching Band performed. Led by Drum Maj or Linda DeTurk, the band executed many intricate drills during the football season.

Following the football season, a concert was given by both the band and the orchestra, and the band aided Knightettes in supporting the basketball team.

Several members of the band and orchestra formed another group-a dance band which performed for several events at Southeast. Included in this group were the officers of band: Bob Hollingsworth, president; Ken Tenhulzen, vice president; and Rm.1 Crocker, secretary-treasurer.

Science Club Put:s Emphasis on Being Informed

How is an atomic power plant operated? What is the part which anesthesia plays in today's medical profession?

These questions, and others like them, were presented to the Science Club and discussed at its weekly meetings.

Films, lectures, demonstrations, and field trips were the media used by the members of Science Club to increase their knowledge of the importance and necessity of modern science in the life of every person.

Several local authorities on scientific fields were guest speakers at the club meetings. Included in these was Dr. Emerson Jones, Consumers Public Power engineer Dr. Jones spoke on the use of atomic power for peace. Another guest speaker was Dr. Hachiza , anesthetist from Bryan Memorial Hospital, who spoke on anesthesia.

Grease paint and footlights, the age-old charm of the theater, has attracted a large number of Southeast students. Thalians, the drama club, consists not only of aspirants to acting careers, but also of those interested in performing the great number of behind-the-scenes tasks.

In addition to sponsoring the major stage productions, Thalians held acting workshops which produced several one-act plays throughout the year.

Championship is the key word in Southeast debate circles . Certainly it describes the ·work done by the members of the Debate Squad and National Forensic League. Led by state champ i ons Dick Nelson and Mike Crawford , the Debate Squad has taken many first places in tournaments throughout the region

Debate is a major part of the activities of National Forensic League. To be eligible for membership in NFL, a student must have earned a certain number of oratorical points by giving extemporaneous speeches, preparing oratories, debating, or making other public appearances.

Understanding--lnternational Club's Goal

Better understanding between America and other countries is the goal of International Club. The members begin working toward this understanding in their own school through students their own age.

International Club invited several foreign students who are studying in Lincoln on the .American Field Service program to speak at the club meetings. These students described the customs and views of their countries and noted the differences between their countries and the United States

Although not directly connected with American Field Service, International Club is interested in its programs and supports its activities at Southeast. The sale of light bulbs to raise money to bring foreign students to Southeast is one of International Club's activities.

Sponsoring an assembly each year to present the American Field Service to the students of Southeast is another way in which International Club works with A F S jn reaching their mutual goal-tolerance and understanding between the countries of the world.

Reminiscent of Scottish knights of old are the plaid kilts of Southeast's seven varsity cheerleaders. However, similarity between past and present ends with the kilts when the cheerleaders are yelling "Beat me, Daddy" and "Yea, Southeast, we dig you the most!"

Black kilts take the place of plaid when the reserve cheer leaders are performing. Five in number, these juniors lead the cheers at the reserve basketball games.

Newly formed this year was a cheer leaders club, advised by Mrs. Donna Stalcup. Some of the activities included pre-game dinners for cheer leaders from other schools

An unexpected win over Lincoln Northeast, a tie for both the Mid-East and City crowns, a 9-9 season record, and a berth in the finals of the District Championships were the accomplishments that the 1958 basketball squad made towards their finest season e v er.

The spectacular win over Northeast in the last regular season game was the highlight of the entire season. This v ictory gained the Knights a tie for both the City and Mid-East crowns.

Schmoker carried a 10.3 average and Graham sported an 8.4 average.

Senior Dave Myers was an outstanding playmaker all year and was a deciding factor in the ball-control game against Northeast.

Completing their first year in Class AA, the Knights made a good account of themselves and finished the season rated in the tenth position.

Classy JV's, Sophs Display 12-1, 8-2 Records

Hustling through their most successful season to date , the Junior Knights racked up a 12-1 season's mark. Bowing only to an inspired Hastings squad, the reserves walked all over such formidable foes as Lincoln Northeast (twice), Lincoln High, Nebraska City, Omaha Westside, McCook, and Beatrice.

The reserves' sparkling record gives some indication that the loss of eight seniors from the varsity squad will not put as heavy a strain on th~ varsity team as supposed.

The sophomore team followed the winning example of their varsity and reserve cousins by posting an 8-2 season record.

Under the watchful eye of Coach Dick Kirwan , the squad was brought along from an inexperienced group of boys to a wellbalanced team. The sophomore squad should contribute some fine talent for next year. Bob Cunningham, Wayne Kubert, and Corky Dillingham starred both on defense and offense throughout the entire 1958 season.

In addition to Frank, the Knight stock was boosted by distance stars Mike Miller and Dave Roberts, and sprinter Jon Taylor.

Southeast suffered a severe blow when diver Steve North, who had finished a close second to Frank in the first four meets, was sidelined for the season with a back injury.

Southeast's two fine relays were major factors in all meets . Both the medley, composed of Tom Davies, Virgil Stewart, Jim Frank, and Mike Miller, and the free style, consisting of Jon Van Bloom, Stan Wilson, Bill Goldman, and Jon Taylor, placed first in the Mid-East and third in the State.

Kubert led the way in the State by placing first in the high bar, second as allaround gymnast, third on the parallel bars, and sixth on the side horse.

Ed Banning, "T" Davies, Rich Garlinghouse, Bill Goldman, Dick Harr, Virgil Kubert, Bill Van Cleave, and Dick Young, letterwinners from last year, formed the nucleus of a team that was composed mostly of underclassmen.

Knight tracksters opened their season with a dual meet with Lincoln Northeast on March 25.

Because of the increased turnout of boys, Bob Good was the assistant coach in charge of the 100, the 220, the 880 relay, the broad jump, pole vault, and high jump.

Several new rules were introduced this year. Among these were the running of the 440 and the 880 relay in lanes and a change in the discus and shot put rules.

It all started a year ago-when the 1958 Shield was but a baby in the arms of the newlyselected staff members. Since that time the all-new 1958 Shield has grown into a way of thinking for all of us-and a way of life for which it will be difficult to find a substitute. It 's only too bad that the staff cannot enjoy the privilege of producing another Shield, for the experience we have accumulated this year would make the development of another Shield even more enjoyable. But it is all over for us now , and this book must remain as our first and last attempt to squeeze a year between covers.

As editor of the 1958 Shield, I would personally like to extend my sincerest gratitude and deepest appreciation to all those who were instrumental in the publication of this yearbook. Without any one of these people , the progress of the Shield would have been impeded, if not altogether halted. Indeed, the 1958 Shield was the product of teamwork, with each person working in his own capacity to make this book the very best ever.

Under no circumstances could Miss Hattie Steinberg receive too much credit for her colossal effort in supervising the publication of the Shield. It goes without saying that all we know abou t yearbook work we owe to Miss Ste i nberg Any staff would be lucky to have her.

Constantly working under pressure was the staff, with special praise going to section editors Anne Sowle s, Paulette Suder , and Tom Davie s. Many a night one could see these three burning the midnight oil on the night before a pressing deadline. On the practical side , money talksand thus po i nts up the indispensability of our business manager, Neal Higgins. A special feature of this year's book was the all-student photography , which was in the capable hands of Brick Brewer. Br i ck, only a sophomore, performed a senior's work in doing a truly magni ficent job.

Another dominant factor in the success of this year's publication was the marvelous cooperation between the school-the students , the faculty , and the administration-and the staff. Only typical of the cooperative gestures enacted by the school organizations was the purchase of a new camera by the Student Council for the exclusive use of the journalism staffs. The Clarion did a tremendous job of publicizing the yearbook, too. We hope that this great spirit of cooperation will find its reward between the covers of the l958 Shield.

Technical aspects of perfect photo finishing and top grade lithographing were entrusted to Edholm & Blomgren and the Graham Printing Service, with whom we have had nothing but the most successful dealings.

Although any member of the staff would rather do yearbook work than eat, they would all assure anyone that even this glorious activity has its discouraging moments. During these crises our parents instilled in us just the added drive we needed to carry us over the rough spots. In conclusion, here's to Paul W. Benjamin, last year's publications adviser, who was like a father to us in stimulating our interest along journalistic lines

Each succeeding year has blessed Southeast with progress-progress in every field of endeavor. Again, as editor of the 1958 Shield, I sincerely hope that this book may be a guide to future staffs and that these staffs may have as much fun and pure satisfaction as we did in producing the all-new 1958 Shield.
