CLASS HISTORY In September of 1965, twenty-three freshmen entered the doors of Augusta High School to begin the first of four years of high school. For Class officers we elected Mike Olson as presi- dent; Mark Christian as vice president; and Sis Garland as secretary. Eva Anseth was chosen as our class sponsor. Ten new students came that year. They were Rick Ripley, Linda McKnight, Mikie Wilden, Virginia MacFarland, Shelley Shellinger, Doug Morrison, Dave Morrison, Patsy Lapke, Dick Hammel and Sis Garland. Jim Reeves and Linda McKnight left. Patsy Lapke was chosen as homecoming princess with Rick Ripley as her escort. As sophomores, we held an initiation dance for the freshmen. Our class officers were president, Mark Christian; Beth Hilger, vice president; secretary, Patrick McDonough; and treasurer, Mikie Wilden. Our sponsor was Betty Ginther. Virginia MacFarland, Mike Rea, Tom Eckerson, and Dan Shanahan left us that year. Mikie Wilden and Dick Hammel were our homecoming candidates. As juniors, we felt pretty smart. Our class officers were president, Bill Schrader, vice presi- dent was Mikie Wilden; secretary was Connie Weisner; and treasurer was Sis Garland. Sponsor was Mark Mozer. The best prom that the school ever put on was Love is Blue. King and queen of the prom were Clyde Overman and Zonda Simpson. Boys' state representative was Mark Christian with Bill Schrader as alternate. Connie Weisner was the girls' representative with Mary Anderson as alternate. Our homecoming queen and king were Connie Weisner and Dick Hammel. Finally we became seniors with Clift Wilson as our sponsor. Officers were Danny Freeman, president; Buddy Goss, vice president, Sis Garland, secretary; and Lorry Dellwo treasurer. We lost Mikie Wilden but gained David Burke who left during the year. Homecoming queen in our senior year was Lorry Dellwo with Buddy Goss as her escort. Instead of a Christmas dance, we had a pizza party and sleigh ride at the LF Ranch. Our senir play was Valley of Ghosts by Jacob Lear. Stars of the play were Tom Eckerson, Deanne Hindberg, Bill Schrader and Connie Weisner. Instead of taking a sneak day, the seniors chos senior privileges. Our senior banquet was held at the 7-UP Guest Ranch on May 13. Seniors who completed the twelve years of school in Augusta are Deanne Hindberg, Bill Schrader, Don Mills, Mark Christian, Buddy Goss, Mary Anderson, Connie Weisner, Lorry Dellwo, and Dan Freeman. The history of the 1969 senior class ended with Baccalaureate on May 25 and graduation on May 26. 14
