Anderson, Assistant Business Editor; Mrs. Baird, Advisor. The staff was hard at work this year. Cutting pictures, pasting pic- tures, writing captions, soliciting ads, and more pasting characterized the work on the Cubette. A later deadline and a summer delivery of the annual gave us more time so that we worked at a more leisurely pace than in previous years. Editors at work. 22 Dakota SEATED; L. Sogn. Head Reporter; D.

OOOOOOO pt) 3 ♦OQQijJiWL, The monthly publications of the Dakota sent a number of our students scurrying around getting stories for the paper. The busiest of all was Kaleen Waddell who planned and directed the work on each publication. The Staff got some new experience since the paper was mimeographed during the last half of the year.

JUNIOR-SENIOR BANQUET The seniors ended their four years at AHS with much activity. On May 5 they journeyed to Sioux Falls on a tour with Mr. Oaks and Mr. Nulty. The juniors enter- tained the seniors at a banquet in the Auditorium on May 6. The theme of the banquet was Evening in Paris. Grad- uation week was a very busy one. On May 12 and 14 the seniors enjoyed break- fasts at the golf course. Many said it was the most fun of all. The Baccalaureate Service was held on May 11. On May 15 the big night finally arrived when the seniors received the long-awaited diplomas. 30 Sidewalk cafe In Paris on banquet night. Library FIRST ROW: S. Eggen, V. Hagen, A.
