Southeast High 1959 Yearbook

Lincoln, Nebraska

Man, those slide rules slide right past me!

I study quite

Wonder if I'll invent a new type of plant? I am a world famous botanist you know.

I bet those guys wish I was giving 'em a boost with that last-minute studying.

a bit concerning all sorts of things

May I introduce myself?

I'm Bee ly-the typical clean-cut rock-and-roll Southeast Knight who takes the bus to football games and eats pizza, onion rings and hamburgers for lunch. I really dig Hi-Fi and hula-hoops and love vacations, long red tights, convertibles with the top down and ice-skating.

I have a definite aversion to spinach, pep club hats and semester exams. There ' s so many things to do in a year at Southeast! I'd better run nowHurry fast fast scurry whoosh ZOOM

Gee whillikers! These regents exams are even tough for me •

Debate trips are one of my most favoritist things to do.

Boy, these report cards really bug me.

Because of all my talent

I'm very busy at school every day Drama Club, Pep Club , Synkra-Knights, football team-I belong to everything. My talents are many and var·ied and my music teacher even says I' ll be a second Caruso . I have other talents too like tripping over the scenery in the school play. My favorite class is study hall and lunch hour too After c lass everyone stands at the water fountain and discusses world problems like who had a date with whom and the answers to the history test. I have problems too-when report ~ards come out Oh my gosh will I EVER pass geometry?

I am in every single

I'm as good at jazz as Louis Armstrong .

activity imaginable

Make-up artist is just one of my many Thalian club duties.

Everyone reads the Clarion, including me.

Homemaking's right down my alley.

And sports I absolutely love so much that

I nearly fell out of the bleachers at this one.

Oh! {blush) They've gone and chosen me reserve cheerleader.

Yes sir, I'm an old pro at golf.

Everybody depends on me to give the team a stirring pep talk.

I never miss a game

Three hundred and eighty-seven laps (puff)

around the school building (pant) and breaking a bone or two are just trials and tribulations of a great athlete like me. Unfortunately I don't play basketball because my knees are knobby and I get embarrassed but I really go for these he-man sports like football though, of course. I'm a cheerleader too you know, and I absolutely love to tell off the referees but here is what I have trouble doing: Keeping my socks up and my kilt down at the same time.

The Prince of Monoco hasn't got anything on me, I'm royalty too!

As a first class citizen

With a little experience

I'd be an ace disc jockey.

All us Y-Teeners fascinate little kids.

I' m sure the Centennial is being planned just for me.

I love Lincoln

Happy birthday to you , Happy birthday to you ,

Happy birth-OK, so I' m not a second Caruso. You see, I went to a birthday party this month and OH you can't imagine how many people were there. I think they called it a centennial. Everyone made a float for the parade downtown and I even grew a beard-It makes me look MUCH older. Just think, our city's I 00 years old nowHappy birthday, Lincoln!

Mothers aren't the only ones who march for dimes.

I hope they don't ask for references; I don't have any.

Just picture me in a little white cap.

And week-ends

And there I was-in church every Sunday.

My family and me , just the tackle-box three.

Gregore rides again.

end weeks with a bang

Week-ends are catch-up-on-sleep times and Saturday morning is the best day of the whole week. I don't wake up to the absolutely most horribles+ ring of the alarm clock. I can wake up slo -w-ly and the very most first thing I do is stretch and wiggle my toes and then turn over and go back to sleep until noon. I don't sleep ALL the time of courseI go to slumber parties and pizza parties and Friday night games and church on Sunday dances, show or bowling dates But then Monday morning comes along again UGH!

Debonaire, aren't I?

·the Knights

Administrators--Backbone

Keeping Lincoln schools up with the fast pace demanded by the public is the job of the Linco ln Board of Education wh ich meets at 8:30 a.m. every other Tuesday. This Board decides on such problems as budqets, federa l aid and construction of schools.

In th is age of sputniks and inter-continenta l ba ll istic miss iles , there is pressure from every side on this elected board. Everyone is concerned with the tremendous respons ibil ity of properly educating future leaders of society and . government.

In Dr . Steven A Watkins, superintendent of Lincoln public schools, is vested the responsibi lity of engaging and ass igning teachers , office personne l and maintenance emp loyees. Dr. Watkins a lways works closely wi t h the Board of Education.

Directinq 53 teachers and other personnel at LSE is a major responsibility of Dr. Archie L. McPherran. As principal , he must evaluate curriculums, enforce rules and regu lations and plan school programs as wel l as hold conferences with parents.

Registering students and helping them ad just to Knight life is a task of Miss Hazel Scott and Rex Mercer. Miss Scott also checks graduation requirements, compiles class ratinqs, orders textbooks and supplements, and serves as girls' couns eJor.

In addition to his job as boys' counselor, Athletic Director Mercer supervises gym activities, checks the e ligibility of athletes and orders equipment. He also schedules all schoo l events and arranges transportation for all athletic events. 17

COUNSELING IS IMPORTANT IN YOUR SENIOR YEAR-Donald Darnell, Niles Jobst and Susan Minier

Unique Guidance Program Carried Out by

"Mr. Counselor, I have a problem." This statement is a frequent sound in the ears of LSE's five guidance teachers.

Also known as homeroom guidance is a unique class in which students gather for two hours each week to learn and discuss problems which confront and interest teenagers. Such topics as marriage, family life, vocational planning and study habits are covered in the six semesters that each student spends in homeroom. Senior guidance includes planning for gradua t ion.

Juniors study budget planning and also investigate such subjects as emotions and intelligence. Orientation marks the beg inning of sophomore homeroom and is followed by a rather complete study of several vocational fields of interest .

"NOW THE PROTESTANT VIEW ON MARRIAGE ."-Dr. Carl M. Davidson

COLLEGE DAYS ARE CLOSER THAN MOST OF THE SENIORS REALIZE-Larry Wood

Energetic Counselors

Countless times these tireless counselors talk with individuals as well as with their parents to make sure that each student is adjusting properly to high school life and is planning adequately for the days when he will be out of high school.

Every student is introduced to a file, which is kept in the office, which holds his cumulative record in the Lincoln Public Schools. It also contains many of the standardized tests which he has taken, and by careful evaluation of the information in the file, he can plan intelligently for both his school life and his future life.

Representing Every Category of Learning

Students are any country's greatest natural resource. At LSE the faculty is trying to deve lop its share of this resource to its highest possible academic level.

"Parts of speech, Silas Marner, compositions due Friday' '-for at least four semesters, English teachers try to instill in their charges a complete understanding and appreciation of the English language.

Conjugating verbs is one phase of foreiqn languages that instructors such as Mrs. Edna Keal teach their students. Aspiring linguists find that .foreign languages help them to understand English better.

from Language Arts

In the formative years language arts play a very important role in the development of individual personalities and at+itudes, and the part that they play becomes more influential as time goes on.

"High school math is something more than adding and subtracting." This attitude is reflected in the puzzled expressions on the faces of some geometry students trying to reason out a problem. These expressions, which become darker as the students go on to trigonometry and analytical geometry, usually disappear, however, due to the efforts of the mathematics faculty.

To Vocational Education, LSE' s Instructors

LSE' s social studies dep 9 rtment has been enlarged this year to include a course in economics open to seniors. To stimulate thinking a good background in this field is desirable for any individual.

Due to the increased public interest in science, students now have an option of either a .five- or ten-hour course in chemistry. Hioh achievement in the ten-hour class, as well as in certain mathematics and foreign language classes, can secure college credit for a commendable student.

Knights combine extra-curricular interests with school work in taking either vocal or instrumental music.Talented faculty members also teach courses in art, printing and architectural and mechanical drafting.

In Guiding Students

"Twenty laps around the gym!"

Health being a major goal of education, LSE provides and requires physical education and health. Gym classes do much for teenagers in the development of body control and muscular coordination.

If one is a victim of nerve-racking time tests, chances are he is taking typing. From beginning classes to the more advanced, typing is an important part of the business education curriculum.

Cooking, sewing, auto shop-specialized classes in home and industrial arts can add variety to a student's course schedule. This balanced program of learning, carried out by intelligent, experienced instructors, supplies every student with the learning he needs for the forthcoming years.

Toward Worthy Goals.

"8:30 to 3: 15, and three months vacation in the summer ... " This is often the public opinion of a teacher's life. But unknown to many people, the average teacher spends much of his own time on school work. Preparation for class takes a great deal of time and work. A faculty member must be prepared to ke-ep students busy for five or six periods a day as well as be able to answer any questions that might arise in daily classroom discussion.

Some teachers have special interests which keep them busy at the school after class hours. Some of these things are allschool plays, small music groups and the largest category of them all-sports.

Then, like everybody else, instructors like to spend some time at home with their families. After school hours they can be found taking their children to the park, raking their yards or maybe even watching their favorite show on television.

Many faculty members take a great interest in community affairs by sponsoring youth groups, attending ·symphony concerts and helping various charitable organizations. By giving their time and effort, teachers are valuable citizens of their community .

Behind the good smel ls that drift through the halls are the Lincoln Southeast cooks. Planning menus and supervising the kitchen staff are just a part of Mrs. Alice Tuckerman's duties. Working under her direction, the cooks prepare delicious and wholesome food for over one thousand students. Flaky cinnamon rolls, their specialty, are anticipated by students and faculty.

Senior Class of 1959, after three years of high school, had many new and exciting experiences throughout their senior year. Many things were talked about, but plans for class day, baccalaureate and graduation were the most prominent. Officers who led the Senior Class were Jess Murray, president; Catherine Pighills, secretary; Ann Jones, treasurer and Paul Maxwell, vice president.

Seniors' Last Year Was a World

LAST WORD BEFORE A TEST-Tip Dow

"Ta ke care of Southeast." This would be the responsibility of the 1958-59 Senior Class. The senior year, long looked forward to , had fi na lly bequn. Along with the privileges and fun of being a mighty senior would be responsibilities and work.

As the year would rapidly progress, many events would become " lasts" for seniors. Football, basketball, exams, school parties, always taken for granted , would end with the realization of approaching graduation and re living of many memories. Knowing the importance of their last year at LSE, they began it with enthusiasm.

Transforming curious sophomores entering LSE into ser ious seniors graduating into a complex world was a big task. It was important that as they graduated, the seniors could relate the ir academic knowledge to practical purposes to better themselves, their community and the world.

Under the guidance of senior sponsors, Wayne Bates , Oscar Brefthorst, Donald Darnell, Miss Evelyn Fosbury and Mrs. Doris Quist, activities from September 8, 1958, to June 4, 1959, the date of graduation, contributed many experiences long looked forward to and longer to be remembered.

There were many outstanding seniors in the class of '59. Some entered contests, many took tests and it was a busy year for everyone. The upper fourth of this class took the University of Nebraska Freshmen Regents Examinations. From these 46, there were 2 winners, 7 alternates and 21 honorable mentions. Phillip Dow scored highest in the state on this exam.

At Press Convention John Musselman and Patty Spilker won second place in sports writing, and copy reading and editing, respectively. John also won second in the Mayor's Handicap _Essay Contest.

Nite of Knights, bus trips to ball games, senior teas, hula hoops , slumber parties and even a knittinq club provided many pleasant memories for all. The Lincoln Centennial reminded everyone of progress achieved and the need for further achievement through universal cooperation.

As a highlight of the SHIELD, each year it announces a Knight and Lady of Southeast. They are chosen on a basis of points for scholarship, popularity, extra-curricular activities and faculty evaluation. The identity of the Kniqht and Lady is kept secret until the SHIELD is distributed.

Several were elected presidents of clubs: Mary Catherine Sheldon, International Club; Bruce Hans, Key Club; Linda Joyce, Knightettes; Tom Cooper, National Forensic League; Susie Moffit:+, National Honor Society; Dick Young, S Club; Tip Dow, Science Club; Steve North, Student Council; Kay Meves, Synkra-Knights and Patty Spilker, Thalians.

Students who had long been active followers proved themselves worthy as they became able leaders. Striving to better Southeast and uphold traditions, the 1958-59 Senior Class contributed much to academic, athletic and social activities.

This year the Junior-Senior Prom, baccalaureate and graduation became events with special meaning. Some left gladly, but for most, graduation meant sadly ending a wonderful period of life. It is with deep feeling and many memories that the 1959 Senior Class leaves the familiar halls with these words, "Take care of Southeast."

Paul and Marolyn spent last summer in these respective countries.

Second semester excitement came for Nancy Brown, junior , when she went to New Zealand on the AFS winter program. This was the first year for this program at Southeast. A happy switch came for Paul when his Danish brother Aksel Bendix came to visit him during Christmas vacation.

Scholastics and Sports;

Learning more about today's modern world was the educationa l pro ject of the Junior Class. The addition of a new physics laboratory and varied courses of study supplied them with an incentive to accomplish many things scholastic-wise.

This was the year of moonrockets and inter-continental missiles, inspiring juniors to take science courses in the face of the great need for scientists in the world today. This was the year when guidance directed interests to the future-of career planning and university, of homemaking and child care. Much emphasis was placed on history and literatur e courses, providing a backqround for more intensive senior study. These subjects and others not offered to sophomores were presented to the juniors, furnishing a cha ll enge to all.

Using Many Talents

Pizza parties ... Junior-Senior Prom .. . announcement of the AFS summer candidates festive Christmas teas - although eagerly awaiting their senior year, the Juniors looked behind them and remembered the good times they had had Memories of "a wonderful jun ior year " will be relived many times.

Following in the footsteps of the departing seniors , they became leaders in sports and excelled in scholastic work. The last two years at Southeast had been rewarding and fun-f illed, but now the Junior Class looked forward to the zenith which will climax high school-their senior year.

Setting an example for underclassmen will be th is class ' s job, and the responsibility must now be met and accepted.

Seniors Gain Proteges as Student Council

Meeting each Wednesday during sixth period, LSE Student Council members had never a dull moment as they worked on their many projects. The year's activities began

1 with a Welcome-Sophomore Dance, as part of the council ' s orientation program introduced this year. In addition each sophomore was assigned to a senior "brother or sister, 11 who helped him to feel at home at Lincoln Southeast High School.

In November, nineteen LSE Student Council members traveled to Omaha aboard a chartered bus to attend the Nebraska Association of Student Councils Convention, held at Omaha Central High School.

Canned foods were collected as admission to the annual Christmas Dance, sponsored by Student Council. This food was then presented to a needy family .

Counting ballots for school elections, after-school selling of concessions, and plans for the all-school picnic also came under the duties of the Student Council.

"We Made Beely Live!"

Working in the midst of grease pencils, layout sheets, and pictures, the 1959 SHIELD staff has realized its goal of recording the current year at Lincoln Southeast. It brought into beinq the unforqettable character "Beely" which can be -found almost anywhere in or around school.

Their schedule has been one varying from early morning picture taking to late at night caption writinq. Through thick and thin the staff worked closely together so that they miqht bring to the student body an all new and different yearbook.

Going about their work in a diligent manner, the staff, under their adviser Miss Hattie Steinberg, worked directly with the students, faculty and administration. In this way they could fulfill the majority of requests for the SHIELD'S content.

Businessmen and business establishments have comA to know and respect the SHIELD, its staff and what it represents through extensive advertising.

Both junior and senior staff members, working under Judv Harrinaton , editor, carried out the CLARION publication duties.

In its first year of existence, the Art Club helped with Lincoln's Centennial celebration. Working in cooperation with the Mathematics Department, the club put many hours and much hard work into a float for the Centennial Parade, held in May.

Lincoln Southeast's artists not only worked for the city, but also for their school. They were responsible for Foreign Language Week posters, advertising placards for other school clubs, and window displays for LSE teachers. Members of the club worked in close connection with the Key Club to promote the Damage=Dollars Campaign. Their cleverly designed posters were seen throughout the school, urging students to respect the property available to them.

"This Is Our Best," portrayed by the 1959 Nite of Knights cast members, uncovered a show full of hidden Lincoln Southeast talent. The audience was confronted with many outstanding acts ranging from a drum duo to a comic Swan Lake Ballet by the Raines Ballet Company.

Dances, with the inclusion of Mexican, tap and modern dancing, comprised the major part of this year's program. Several band groups and combination song and dance numbers accounted for the balance of the 1959 Nite of Knights production.

Heading the behind-the-scenes work was Paul Austin, chairman of the Production and Audition Committee. Assisting him were John Crancer and Jerry Terrill, faculty members, and Kenny Tenhulzen and Bill Wright, student members. The members of this committee were in charge of judging the tryouts of thirty-one prospective acts.

In a somewhat more humorous vein was " Mrs . Mc Thing ," the second presentation. Under the expert casting and direction of Mrs. Doris Quist , Thalian sponsor , the public and the student body of LSE were provided with a superb form of entertainment.

ANOTHER ENJOYABLE LUNCHEON WITH KIWANIANS-Jon Taylor, Bud Dobson, Donald Neville and Dale Graud

Under the sponsorship of the Lincoln Kiwanis Club, members of Lincoln Southeast's Key Club promoted school service and spirit in many and varied ways.

Members worked behind the scenes of the "Damage Equals Dollars" campaign which stressed t~e student's responsibility in building care and maintenance. This campaign ended with the awarding of a $25 savings bond to the artist of the best poster from each of the participating schools.

They established a temporary student lounge in room I 15 and provided used furnishings for it. By selling athletic programs the club was able to help other school organizations financially. SHIELDS for AFS students and a strobe flash for the journalism department were purchases of the club.

These junior Kiwanians helped provide needy children with Christmas toys by redeeming key strips from Butternut coffee.

Speeches, such as those given by Dr. Robert Chasson and Dr. Henry Holtzclaw, who spoke on "International Geophysical Year" and "Rocket Fuel," respectively, helped Science Club members increase their knowledge of science and understand the importance of it in the lives of everyone.

Files, note cards and tournaments kept LSE's debaters on their toes. Striving for their third state tournament trophy, the Southeast squad was matched against Grand Island, Omaha, Kearney, Independence , Missouri and Sioux City, Iowa.

Hard work and expert quality describe to a high degree the type ot work presented to the public by members of the debate teams and the National Forensic League.

One of the major activities of NFL is debate. Membership eligibility is dependent on the number of oratorical points made by giving extemporaneous speeches, preparing oratories and interpretations, debating, or by making other public appearances.

Southeast's members of debate and NFL have shown themselves worthy possessors of championship speaking qualities.

To promote good feelings between the United States and other countries has been the main objective of Lincoln Southeast's International Club. So that it might further recoqn ize and understand the elements standing in the way of world peace, it centered many of its meetings around speakers who were in some way acquainted with other countries. Expressing the thoughts of Asian people towards Americans and their policy was Cecil E. Hinshaw, noted lecturer and world traveler Also help ing to relay the thoughts of other countries were current and past AFS representatives.

Not being directly connected with AFS, International Club is not obligated to support it, but the club is interested in its programs and supports its activities at LSE. This year International Club sponsored a light bu lb sale. All the profits of this were turned over to the AFS to help bring foreign students to America to study.

"Attention Knightettes! There will be an important pep club meeting in the auditorium immediately after school today."

This Monday morning announcement cauqht the attention of the more than two hundred members of Knightettes. Their weekly meetings varied from planning Homecoming to last-minute details for the Chili Feed and the All-Sports Banquet .

Many of the Knightettes spent their Wednesday afternoons painting signs which were put up in the halls, urging Lincoln Southeast's teams to victory. Regardless of the distance, a majority of the pep club members, with unquestionable school spirit, boarded chartered buses for out-of-town games. Win, lose, or draw, their good sportsmanship was always evident.

Are they from Scotland or Southeast? These kilt-clad lassies represent LSE's students during football and basketball seasons with their cheerleading antics.

In October, Lincoln Southeast's varsity cheerleaders attended a cheerleading clinic on the University of Nebraska Campus with cheerleaders from across the state. Several types of cheers were discussed, but the fast and peppy ones were stressed.

Five junio'r girls were elected last fall from a field of thirty candidates to lead cheers for the reserve basketball team.

Sponsored by Mrs. Beverly Hotaling, the seven varsity and five reserve cheerleaders made it their job to see that sportsmanlike conduct was observed during contests.

Early morning car washing, laps around the track, noontime shoe shining and gunny sack underwear-all were withstood by new varsity lettermen as they obeyed their masters' commands in order to pass the initiation into the lettermen's S Club.

Proudly sporting S jackets or sweaters, S Club members formed their own cheering section at LSE athletic events.

Acting as hosts, S men planned and enjoyed a swimming party with their dates in the Lincoln Southeast pool.

Throughout the year, they strived to maintain their code of outstanding achievement in athletic competition; to uphold the traditions of Southeast by displaying loyalty to teammates and courtesy to opponents.

Knights, Using Strong Offensive Tactics,

Lincoln Southeast ended its 1959 football season with a 4-5 record. After getting off to a slow start with four defeats, the Knights chalked up four straight victories to set a new school record for consecutive wins. They also finished as runners-up in the MidEast conference and in the city.

Dick Harr, senior, received both AllCity and honorable mention All-State honors for his defensive and offensive play in the backfield. Bud Dobson, senior, and Keith Sieck , junior, were also named to the LincolnStar All-City team. Dobson bolstered the middle line at guard, in defensive play, while Sieck was an offensive and defensive standout in the tackle slot.

Named to the second team were seniors Don Sacks and Dick Young and juniors John Peterson and Chuck Potter. Young, along with Harr , sparked the Knight backf i e Id w h i Ie Pet 8 rs o n , Pott e r a n d S a c ks backed up the Southeast line.

Fremont-19

LSE-12

In the opening game of the season, a spirited Southeast club fell before the muchimproved Fremont Tigers.

Fremont broke through the Knights' line for two lightning touchdowns in the second half to wipe out a 12-6 halftime margin. Jeff Roberts and Dick Harr led Southeast in the first half, but they couldn't seem to find the necessary combination in the second to retain the halftime lead.

Harr's TD came on a 15-yard pass play from Roberts , while Roberts, with 36 seconds remaining in the second quarter, drove o ver from the 9 for the second touchdown.

LSE-12

Improved since their first showing , the Knights dropped a Mid-East Conference decision to Hastings. Although Southeast put together two good scoring drives and threatened on three other occasions, they weren't a match for the rugged Tiger line.

Dennie Puelz ran 86 yards for a touchdown only to have it called back by a pena lty. The Knights scored on a 73-yard drive in the second quarter and on a 47-yard drive in the third quarter, but it wasn't enough to reverse the outcome of the game.

With a classy backf ield and a strong offensive unit , the Norfo lk Panthers defeated the Southeast Knights.

Norfolk scored once in the first quarter and once in the second quarter to build up a 14-0 halftime lead. Jeff Roberts plunged over from the one-yard line in the third period to avert a Knight shutout, but the Panthers scored twice in the final quarter to bolster their eventual victory.

and Boosted the Over-All Total to 9-7.

Steadily improving as the season progressed, Southeast finished with an 8-6 record. Aided by four returning lettermen, the Knight cagers gained the finals of the District Championships by defeating Fremont, 55-43. Southeast then met Lincoln High in the finals but was downed by the eventual Class AA state champions , 66-3 8. Recording an over-all mark of 9-7, the Knights set a new school win-loss record.

Named to the All-City cage team was Dennie Puelz, who also received honorable mention on the All-State team for his playing ability. Receiving honorable mention on the All-City team were Steve Miller and Keith Sieck. Also honoring Miller, Puelz and Sieck was the Sertoma Club , who chose Puelz and Sieck as outstanding players and Miller as outstanding scho lar.

Knights Finished Second

Concluding the basketball season as the No. IO team in the LINCOLN ST AR Class AA Ratings, Southeast had met many topranked teams. Included in these was Lincoln Hiqh, whom the cagers played three times. Other intra-city clashes saw the Knights defeat Lincoln Northeast easily in two contests, but fall before Pius X in an upset.

After opening their schedu le on a sad note by losing to the Beatrice Orangemen, the eventual Class A state champions, Southeast recorded decisive mid-season victories over Grand Island and Fairbury .

T earn Depth Gives Tennis Starting Asset

Under the watchful eye of William Miller, who took over as head coach, the team began practice early in March.

Aided by the return of three letter winners, Mike Miller, John Musselman and Dick Whitney, seniors, who carried the major'ity of the load throughout the season, the netmen competed in a rough I I-meet schedule. Included in the schedule were the Mid-East, city and state meets.

Opening the season against Lincoln High, last year's state champions, the Knights met such formidable foes as Boys Town, Fremont, Fairbury and Northeast , before competing in the city and state meets.

Dick Whitney follows through with an energetic forearm smash to end this match.

"A powerful serve can make the player," John Musselman said before this set.

Long Drives, Careful Putts Win for Golfers

"Practice makes perfect," was a saying which could easily fit coach Paul Austin's 1959 golf squad. Heading the team ' s roster were four seniors, Dennis Casper, Mike Clair, Tracy Donovan and Steve Miller, all of whom were letter winners last year.

Two dual meets with Beatrice and two triangulars with Lincoln High and Lincoln Northeast were the basis of the team's I 0meet schedul"e which opened April 3, in a meet with Omaha Westside. Other teams which the golfers met before competing in the city meet , May 8, and the state meet, May 16, were Norfolk and Omaha Benson.

.Speedy Track Team

Returning letter winners formed the foundation for Southeast's junior-laden track team. Beginning his fourth season as head coach, Roy Churchill put his cindermen to work filling gaps in every event.

Opening the season in the Northeast Invitational, April 3, Southeast boasted one of the fastest milers in the state in Jack Clair, who finished fifth in last year's state meet and made fine showings in this year's meets. Other lettermen who rejoined the squad were Bob Campbell, Don Dietrich, Jim Levy and Steve Solheim.

Aside from playing host to three meets in the five-meet regular season schedule, the Knights competed in the Mid-East, city, district and state meets.

Fight Hard for Their Second State Trophy

With last year's state high school baseball championship set as their precedent, and six lettermen returning, the Knights began their I 0-game regular season schedule, April 3, at Seward Concordia.

Losing only three of that championship nine through graduation, the Knights were bolstered by the services of returnees Owen Becker, Dennie Puelz and Bill Haas in the infield, Don Brunk and Wayne Kubert in the outfield and Keith Sieck, pitcher.

With the schedule getting rougher as the season progressed, the Knight baseballers tangled with top teams, including Omaha Westside, Boys Ta.wn, Omaha Cathedral, Lincoln High and Lincoln Northeast, last year's runner-up in the state tourney.

Lincoln Southeast Faculty

Soon after our appointment the newly-formed staff decided that through the 1959 SHIELD we would introduce a character to Lincoln Southeast High. Our Beely could be any loyal Knight at Lincoln Southeast. I hope Beely has had as much fun looking at Southeasi through the pages of the 1959 SHIELD, as the staff and I have had making Beely live as a typical Knight.

I am sure that any member of the yearbook staff would agree with me when I say that we could not have shown Lincoln Southeast to Beely without the help of our adviser, Miss Hattie Steinberg. The staff and I hope the 1959 SHIELD will maintain Miss Steinberg's string of All-American yearbooks.

Beely could not have seen Lincoln Southeast without the great w·ork of the section editors and their assistants. Kit Stuart, Ruthie Chubbuck and Paul Maxwell spent many hours taking pictures, writing and rewriting the captions and copy. The alert eyes of Patty Spilker, copy editor, kept these people constantly perfecting their work. Business Manager Judy Gant and her staff provided us with finances. Tosh Utsumi, Brick Brewer and Marolyn Bergstrom, the photography crew, gave much of their time taking and developing the pictures for the 1959 SHIELD. Special praise should be given Dick Whitney for creating and drawing Beely.

I would also like to thank the administration and the faculty for the fine· cooperation they have given the staff of the 1959 SHIELD.To the CLARION we are indebted for much publicity. The photography staff would like to thank the Key Club for the new Strobe Flash unit for the camera and also for the new equipment for the dark room. I just hope that this cooperation will continue for years to come.

Don North, Fred Bauer and Dick Pekar of the Jacob North Printing Company were a r eal asset to us in the production of the 1959 SHIELD. We are indeed grateful for their professional advice as well as that of Edholm and Blomgren Photographers.

As editor of the 1959 SHIELD, I feel that I have had a most rewarding experience. I wish the best of luck to next year's staff and hope they will gain as much as I have
