Dedication The 1971 Cubette is dedicated to David Lamar Barnes, a member of the class of 71, who left this life on July 23,1970. Dave was a part of Alcester High for only one brief year. But during that year, he was a friend to all, as well as an active part of our school. Sports, studies, and everything he did was characterized by determination and dedication. With his short life on earth, Dave gave of himself more than most of us ever do. Although Dave is no longer with us, the memory of him and his life among us is. This memory continues to inspire us to strive to do our best, and to look toward the “upward call of God.” This annual is dedicated to Dave because of his contributions to AHS, and his enthusiasm about life, which we were privileged to share with him for a little while. 4 Dave participated in many activities, such as the junior class play.

Student Council Sponsors Ice Cream Social The Alcester student council consisted of one boy and girl from each the freshman and sophomore classes, two boys and one girl from the junior class, and three boys and one girl from the senior class. The council was led by Presi- dent Clark Wilson and assisted by Mr. Person, advisor. They met monthly to discuss various subjects and ideas. Some of the duties that the student council strove to car- ry out were to help provide an environment of co-operation between faculty and students in all co-curricular activities, to develop ideals of school spirit, to promote the practice of good citizenship, and to work for the general welfare of the school. Student council members were chosen from each class at the beginning of the year. The group planned and organized the Homecoming Sweetheart activities and held an ice cream social. They carried out several other activities and helped with the school picnic. Student council members Arlo Lykken and Jeff Sogn help set up the “Big Toe Jam Band” before the Sweetheart dance. Miss Irresistable Ramona Jurgensen and Mr. Irresistable Jim Heun- ink were chosen at Boy’s Hush Day and Girl's Hush Day sponsored by the student council. 6 Student council members Ralph Rasmussen, David VanBallegooyen, Arlo Lykken, Doris Israel, Marji Anderson, Mr. Person, Linda Rog- ness, Peggy Newman, Regan Hommandberg, Steve Sigman, Clark Wilson, and Jeff Sogn sponsored an ice ceram social after a home football game.
