Waiting for the counselor on those tacky green chairs and then going into his office only to feel slight- ly claustrophobic. This year all that changed. The guidance office and also the office of the activities director and school nurse were given a face lift. In the guidance area, Mr. Nelson and Mr. Erickson were given longer offices and separate conference and ca- reer references areas were set up. The activities director's of- fice was moved over into the nurse's old exam room and the activities' old office became the nurse's new exam room. New life was also given to the gym floor. According to school officials, the refinishing of the gym floor should last 15 years. The purchase of a $4,000 tarp should add another 5 years of life. 1.

Just ask any of the students in short- hand and French, the two telecommunica- tions classes this year. 1 mi — A Time Gone By... The 1987-88 school year started with a bang fof all students involved in school activities. Eligibility meetings were set up for senior high students and junior high students on special nights with speakers brought in to inspire our students and their parents. In August, Mr. Bernie Saggau from the Iowa State High School League talked to 500 people about com- mitment and getting involved. In September. Keith Nord talked to students during the day and to over 700 people at night about goal setting. In addition to these speakers, we held small group discussion for students and parents at both sessions to share ideas. In early October, the Luverne Lions Club brought Karl Randall to Luverne and he talked to students about making choices and being able to say no when necessary. This theme Just Say No was made graphic with every student in grade 6 through 12 receiving a T-shirt with that message printed on it. The shirts were paid for through donations from area churches, businesses, and several organizations plus generous individuals. The activities department at school and the Luverne Area Chemical Awareness Committee co- sponsored the events and felt that the meetings had a positive impact on our students and parents. m m P «3� 2.ts+V oiY J'li 1 The homecoming pepfest. 2.

Sandrine will be living with the Cecelia Broer family during her stay here. Among the interesting facts about Sandrine: she likes American food and cats and can speak six different languages. 1 Sandrine and her soul sister Kathy Broer. 2. Sandrine at coronation. 3.

We've shared the good and made the bad And to think it all started when we were just lads. But now the time must come to an end. We'll always be near and always be friends. These years have gone by Ike a cat in the box. Remember when we thought that God could be Ox. Our wondedful teachers Are you with me people? and most importantly Are there any comments or questions before we do today's notes? Having a full quota of knowledge was definately the pits. But we were growing older without realizing it. These memories we'll cherish now and again but we'll never forget you we'll forever be friends. -Michelle Shaw- 29 Coronation 1 Sandrine Combes and Greg Hoogeveen 2.

But as the years have flown by. this year's junior class has ma- tured. Six years ago we were a totally different group of people. We are now ready to take on the biggest challenge of our lives thus far The role of seniors. Yes. next year we will be the graduating class of Luverne High School. Scary thought isn't It? We have enjoyed many great times together and we enjoy many more. We are the class that sticks together through thick and thin. But. when we go our seperate ways we will allways remember the time that we have shared together. 1 Row 1-Bunny Bonnel. Randy Batter. Kim Baustian. Jason Aanenson.

IT'S TIME! 38 The S-O-P-H-O-M-O-R-E-S The Sophmore year is probably described as the toughest year, because we dis- cover that we are usually the last in the lunch line, we have our first Mr. Git's class, and we have the most dreaded class: Behind the wheel training, with Mr. Rhein- gans. Being a sophmore also has its ad- vantages; passing our driver's test (so we're able to go cruisin') and being in the SENIOR high! 1. Standing- Theresa Latten. Jodi Martius, Vicky Kurtz, Lisa loring.

It balances out. Freshmen are still in junior high but can do some things with senior high.

No more homeroom, reading and milk breaks, now it's study hall, English, and 4 minutes to get to class. Recess isn't so structured and now we have our very own hall for just hangin' out. No more Elementary School for us, we are in Jr. High now. We can partake in the speedline, go to a school dance, and maybe wobble down to the DQ after a game. The class of '93 is now recognized in school class cheers and a voice in student government. So many new and exciting opportunities await us. Why is it then we get more home- work and have less time to do it? Seventh grade is a time to try different things and discover yourself. Life is picking up which indicates we are growing up. Say goodbye to milk breaks, nap time, and fighting to carry the lunch ticket box. The Class of 1993 looks forward to each new opportunity just waiting to be discovered. But let's never forget seventh grade, a time of change and a year to always be remem- bered. 1. Row 1 Steve Watts, Alicia DeYong, Ericka Tollefson, Alison Bowron; Row 2: Dennis Wilken. Lisa Wessels.

The annual is the one activity at LHS that has no organization. But somehow that wonderful group of peo- ple in their never ending quest for journal- istic excellence always comes through. Led by Sr. editor Todd Leech and Jr. edi- tor Julie Laabs, the staff works long and hard to put together a book filled with memories of the '87-'88 school year. We hope you enjoy the Cardinal '88. 1.

One-Act provided an interesting and challenging twist this year. A week before performance, the play that was to be performed, Our Town , was disqualified because in the author's will he stated that his plays must be performed in their en- tirety. But, being the resourseful person that Mrs. Roberts is, a new play enti- tled Moments sprang forth. After two practices with full cast, the play was performed at District Competi- tion in Pipestone. The Luverne cast happily returned with a tie for sec- ond. 67 Today, Students... Tomorrow, Farmers! 1 Mr K.: And what class are you going to? 2. row 1) Kyle Kracht, Shelly Schomacker, Kim Wes- sels.

They also have certain goals that say: A true friend is like a family member. Their challenge is to strengthen bonds between families and friends by communicating effectively and co- operating successfully. 69 Niemand sagt es besser The German club started the year with a picnic in the cafeteria. Officers were elected; President Paula Hoffman. Vice President Ace Dispanet. Secretary: Karla Laabs. Treasurer: Lynn Halverson. Other activities were a Christmas party and supper at the Blue Mound Inn. German Club offers not only a lot of food but also a lot of fun and a good way to meet and get to know others better.

Tom Sawyer was chosen to challenge the group. In the past years plays were done that could easily be performed in other towns. The play was only per- formed in Luverne so ex- tensive staging was possi- ble. Many long hours went in to the prepara- tion of this play. Special thanks are due to Mr. Smith's Advanced Speech class who did much of the staging. Also worthy of thanks are Stu- dent Director. Nancy Rath. Stage Director. Becky Opsata. Technical Manager. Tim McFadden. the lights crew - Mark Lyon. Luther Halvorson, Mark Fick and Jeff Um- breit - and the many peo- ple who worked with make - up and publicity. Mr. Smith deserves much respect and gratitude for all the long days he de- voted to directing the play. 1. Jay and Andy in character. 2. Row 1: Robyn Johnson. Dave McDonald. Jay Wange, Andy Gotla.

We started practic- ing in July for the busy marching season with day long practices in sweltering heat! Once school started, the band had early morning prac- tice (7 a.m. to 9:15!) for nearly 2 months. While Mr. Maiello was ill. Mrs. Go- heen took charge and guided the band into a successful marching sea- son. The entire season is a busy one for band mem- bers, with pep tests, pep band appearances at games, and concerts. The band anticipates a summer trip as well - no time to rest! 81 Mark Time March And 1 Blow!!! 2. The Cardinal ver- sion of the Marine Corps. (Don't make a move!) 3. The life of a drum major?!? 4.

The concert choir and choraliers experienced a fun packed week in Nashville. June 14-21 this summer. They toured and experienced things such as Opreyland, Country Music Hall of Fame, and many other places they will never forget. They also were fortunate to sing for the professor Eph Eily, and some of his gra- duate students in Kansas City. 1. The Mandrell sisters at Studio B, Oh! guess it's just Bendi, and Shaw. 2.

Never before in the history of L.H.S. football has a team made it to the state playoffs. Football practices started in early Au- gust with two practices a day for a week. In addition to long and hard practices most players lifted weights to be in shape for competition. This year's team was fortunate to have the experience of 18 seniors, the most seniors out for football in several years. This spirited group of upperclassmen contributed to the team's unity which certainly helped in this successful sea- son! The regular season ended with the Cardinals placing third in the confer- ence. The Cardinals qualified for the section 2 play-offs and with the help of the spirited fans, the Cardinals won the section 2 championship. Then the team moved into the state play-offs. The Cardinals defeated Orono 21-20 in their first state playoff game. After de- feating Orono, the Cardinals had to face Lakeville, a team from a school twice the size of Luverne's school. Un- fortunately the cards lost to Lakeville, but not without giving the opposing team a good struggle! It was a memo- rable year for these seniors.

From that day on, when- ever anybody mentioned Lu- verne in connection with sports, basketball was always the sport that came to mind.

Amy Sanbulte poses on the beam The Luverne gymnastics team soared to new heights this year posting their best record of 5-7. The gymnasts broke the old school record of 116.58 against Marshall with a team score of 116.8. The team competed in two invitationals this year. The Bran- don Valley Invitational and the Sherburn Invitational. Eight teams competed for the trophy at Sherburn, St. James, Pipestone, Lake Crystal and Luverne. The Cardinals stuck together and came out as the winning, team edging out Blue Earth 115.6 to 114.3 The gymnasts have been working hard all year for hopes of competing at the state meet. Dream, believe and achieve was the motto for the 87-88 team. The gymnasts went into the region meet looking strong, and came out with third place in the team totals. The dream of competing at the state meet came alive for Heather Iverson, who placed third on floor with a 7.85. For others, the dream was shattered; coming within tenths of advancing on. 104 Dreaming and believing has brought this team to new heights, and given them the will to be the best they can. 1.

If one member or your team makes a mistake, it won't affect the other's score. A lot of people don't realize just how hard the wrestlers work out. practice, and stay in shape. Just stand in the halls after school during wrestling season and you'll see Coach Lundgren. Amborn. or Swanson make them run by yelling. Peo- ple also don't realize how strict their diet is. If they don't weigh a certain amount, they won't wrestle. To maintain weight they run. spit, starve, and chow down on vitamins. The coaches can't play favorites because the young men wrestle each other to find out who will be on Varsity. We would like to con- gratulate Coach Lundgren's newest addition to the team.

This year, a major decision even affected every person who enters the doors of LHS! The board decided to make ours a smoke free school. Mr. Phil LeBeau.

Of course, we also have the superintendent, whose princi- ple job is to enforce the princi- ples of his principals. Got it? 117 No Such Thing As Easy A What do teachers teach us? Let's make a list. 1. Mr. Gits vocab: superflows, antecedent and of course Khulyages. 2. All of those wonderful mathematecs theorms: 2a + 3b =1 Ox taught by Mr. Carroll. 3. And thanks to Mrs. Blumer we really know what Chi Chi means. 4. We learn how to do various interesting things in Mr. Derd- zinski's graphic arts classes.

As I look back on the school year, I think of the experiences we've shared as stu- dents of LHS. We've had happy times and sad. But hopefully we are enriched by having shared them together best wishes. Todd Leech Sr. editor 127 LITTLE BUFF a tribute by Pamela Kessler His tiny little stature, his teddy bear eyes. That one and only smile- He spoke very little, but said alot He walked with us mile by mile. Comical remarks were so softly spoken. People thought him shy. But once one was near to him It was easy to see inside. Now all we have are memories Of a simple face in this senior crowd. But just to say we knew or were friends with him. We'd have to be very proud. Tears will be shed and things will be written Words will be said enough. But always we'll hold a place in our heart For the one we knew as Little Buff.
