Preparing the school newspaper
is a huge task for the Tooter Staff.
It involves the gathering of school
news and the compiling of it into the
stories students want most to read.

Many events have occurred at
South the past ye ar, and the Tooter
was there to record them.

Joni Sc hroeder appears to be say-
ing, "That' s not the scoop I mean",
to Rich Shimonek. Linda Warinski
and JoAnne Pechous are in the pro-
cess of searching madly for their
story in File 13, a destination of a
lot of student work. Larry Rau and
Harold Murphy are sending out ex-
change issues to other schools, while
Audre y Ma zonas is proofreading Ray
Kalinski's story.

First Choir

"Our next performance wi ll be... . .. \Ve wi ll n e ed to p rese n t a n e ntire ly new program. "
First Choir m e mbe rs will always remember those words of Roland E. Hinr ic hs, South High vocal m u si c in-
structor, at the next rehearsal fo llowing a concert o r p rog ram . Because the appearances of th e c ho i r were
many during th e school year, the singe rs wil l also remembe r th e hard work, conce ntr a t ion, and se lf - d isci -
pline that each p resentation demanded in preparation and in pe rformance .
The large and varied repe rt o ire r esu l t ing from th e busy sche d ul e of th e junior a nd senior students i n thi s
se l ec t g ro up included: the b ril liant "The La st Word s of David" by Randall Thompson, the intense setting of
"The T wenty-Third Psalm" from the m otion picture " David and Bathsheba" by Alfred Newm an, Morten Lu-
va as' poignan t "The Pines of Hom es", the Le rner and Loewe hi g hlights from "My Fair Lady" , and th e st irring
"Battle Hy mn of t he R epubli c" a s arranged by Wilhousk y .
Special favorites o f t he choi r a nc.l a udi e nc e at the fi ve perfo rmances of Christmas Ve spe r MUS IC AND THE
SPOK EN WORD were the unique "Echo C arol" b y T e l l cp , th e ch arming "Zithe r Carol "- -a Cze ch folk tW1e ,
and the dramatic "Search of th e Three Kings'' b ~· Gibb .
Early in the fall Fi rst Choir p rese nted a group o f numbers for the J uni or- Senior Parent s' Nig ht. Th e second
perform ance of the yea r wa s for a conve ntion o f th e Nebra ska State Educ ati o n Associa ti on in the arena o f t h e
Civic Auditorium . Following the traditional Christm a s vesper h our, the choir partic i pated in t he All-C ity
Festival Chorus under th e d irection of :vlr. Richard P. Condie, dire ctor of the famed Mormon Ta bernacle
Choir of Salt Lake C i ty. Mr. Hinrichs was piano accompa11ist fo r this chorus of 950 voi ces.
Second semester wa s bare l y unde rwa y b efore a concert was p resented for a d istric t banquet meeting of lead-
e rs of th e Boy Sco uts of America. Afte r the exciting product ion of Irvi n g Be rlin' s ANNI E GET Y OUR GUN, the
choir did pe rformances for SOUND-OFF, the spring conce rt MUSIC FOR A MAY N IGHT, and Commencement.
Thus, "the next performance..... " kept 94 South Hi gh si nge rs busy and singin g .

This group of 16 voic es from First Choir was sel ected to offer furth e r opportunities to more students for en- f

Ambassadors

The attache cases of the South High School Ambassadors were filled with music, not state secrets. The 24
select singers from First Choir traveled all over Omaha and into the suITounding communities spreading the
good will and fine name of not only South High's Music D epartment but also of the- stud ent body. Thus the
new name chosen by Mr. Hinrichs for the group fonnerly called the Choralaires seemed to describe the pur-
pose and activities of the top ensemble.

Becaus·e so many requests for programs came to the vocal music department where limited space would not
permit an entire choir to perfonn, the Ambassadors filled the need for entertainment tor many special civic,
educational, church and social functions. By mid-year, the Ambassadors had already averaged more than
one performance a week for such events as the National Scie nce A ssociation Convention, the district conven-
tion of Federated Women's Clubs, the American Education Week activities at the Crossroads, the Sarpy County
Soil and Water Conservation District Banquet, Order of Eastern Star Installations and District Convention, and
the Omaha Retired Teachers Association.

When the attach{ cases were unpacked at the end of the year, the 1963-64 Ambassadors filed away copies
of favorite songs such as "Say It With Music", "The Night Before Christmas", "Round and Round" , " Star
Dust", "Choral Selections from Oklahoma", "My Fair Lady", "Cool W:tter", "Falling In Love With Lov e ",
"Drifting and Dreaming", and many other distinctive aITangements of familiar melodies and show tunes.

Second Choir

The largest choir at South High is designed as a training group to prepare for eventual advancement to
First Girls' Choir and First Choir. Though most of the rehearsals were spent in developing tone quality, blend,
diction, breath control and other basic fundamentals of good choral singing, many hours were given to learn-
ing music for the Christmas Vesper and the Spring Concert. A highlight of the year was participating in the
All-City Festival Chorus but most exciting moment was wearing the beautiful new steel-blue robes for the
first time when performing in MUSIC AND THE SPO~ WORD.

First Girls' Choir

This was truly a "new yea r" for First Girls' Choir. The new class schedule made it possibl e for this per-
forming group to meet daily for rehearsal. New robes were worn for the first time at the annual Christmas
program. Other performances were those at the Open House gathering in November, the All-City Music
Festival in Janua ry, and the Spring Conce rt in May.

proud of the job they do.

The new look this .year

South's track coach, Al Brown, sta-
ted that Tim Hendricks, the Packer
c ross- country state champion, is a
young man with a goal and the deter-
mination to break records in running.

"He is the kind of runner every
coach would like to have on his tea m,
for in addition to his na tural athletic
ability, he has been ve ry faithful in
his training program. In fact, he
worked out all year except for a two-
week vacation," Mr. Brown continued.

His coach predicts that Tim will
continue to be a great distance runner
and there will be a good reason to
take pride in this South Hi gh Student
in years to come.

T im Hendricks is shown above displaying his trophies and
metals. The Distance Medl ey Relay trophY is pic tured in the

State Cross-Country Championship.

On October 26, 1963, Sou th won its first State Cross-Country
C h a mpionship by defeating Alli ance , the defending champion, 53-·
7 3. In the cross-country event, the lo west score w ins. T im Hen-
dricks, who l ed South with a n individual first place in 9:52 over the
T hw,der Ridge course in Lincoln , set a pre p record. Twenty- t wo
schools a n d 116 boys were e ntered in this C lass A State Mee t.

South open ed its cross-country season in 1963 with high hopes.
In the first meet the Pa cke r boys tied Westside in a triangular with
Bellevue. In the second, they lost a squeeker to W estside , 28 to 27,
in a quadra ng ular with Central and Prep. But after that the Southite
runne rs won every other tri a ngular and quadrangular they ent ered.

Then in the l arger and more important meets, South came in
second at Nebraska Wesleyan, losing by j u st one point to Li ncol n
High. At the Doane C o llege cross-country meet the Packers finished
second to West si de , 41-44.

On October 12, South won the first Met ropolitan m eet ever hel d.
On October 19, Coach Al Brown' s harriers took the third Inte r-
city me et to win i t t wo years in a row. They defeated Intercity ri-
vals Westside and .Lincoln High, 26, 41, 43, respectivel y . South's
reserves placed second in their l eague.

The football season

A football record is made
of many things besides scores.
An important factor in this
record is the learning process
that should b e the natural en-
deavor.

Thi s year has been an u n-
fortunate one in the win-loss
column, but those who lose a
game have the opportunity of
l earning how to stand up un-
der disappointment and come
back with a will and deter-
mination to do bette r next
time . The memo1y of scores
will fade soon, but the lesson
of defeat serving as a spur to
greate r end eavor wi ll last
forever.

The South High Freshman football team compl eted its season with a 2 win 5 loss record. "The freshman
players should be good ones in the coming years. The boys lack experience now , but they hope to gain this
when the y play their reserve games," stated their coach, Gordon Loucks.

The Reserves scored two wins, four losses, and one tie for the season.
Paul Eisenhower, the second team coach, remarked that the Reserves improved a great deal in their final
games and that many of the boys sh owed great potential for Varsity footba ll.
