It was a year that saw many events influence the lives of Audubon High School stu- dents. It was a year that told of record un- employment, but interest rates be- gan receding. Was President Reagan’s economical policy working? Terry Branstad was elected Iowa’s new governor. Sports fans suffered through a 57-day professional foot- ball strike but could watch the USFL through the spring and sum- mer. Iowa Hawkeye fans were once again given a chance to be enthusi- astic; this year a victory in the Peach Bowl and a fourth trip to the NCAA tourney. Iowa lost Lute Olson, and Iowa State lost Donnie Duncan. Video games were a big boom, and HBO and ESPN arrived in Audubon. The year saw the deaths attributed to the Tylenol Kill- er and stricter packaging devices be- ing found. It was the death of WOW as they went 59 Country. It was the year that saw the deaths of such notables as Breznev of the Soviet Union, Princess Grace of Monaco, Tennessee Williams, Henry Fonda, John Belushi, Karen Carpen- 1983 IS ter, and Natalie Wood. It was the year of television’s soap operas, adventure series, and macho males. We saw MASH’s final episode and the popularity of Square Pegs, Hill St. Blues, Mr. T and the A Team, Dynasty, Cheers, Three’s Company, Tales of the Gold Monkey, and the new Dallas. Mini series that were big hits were The Thornbirds, The Blue and The Gray, and Winds of War. It was the year of popular movies such as An Officer and A Gentle- man, E. T., Best Little Whorehouse in Texas, Annie, Porky’s, Polter- geist, Rocky III, On Golden Pond, and Arthur. It was the year of such popular tunes as Eye of the Tiger, Nobody, Only the Lonely, Emotions in Mo- tion, Hurts So Good, Mickey, and Everybody Wants You. It was the year of happiness and successes, disappointments and fail- ures. It was the year of growth— physical, mental, and emotional. The year was 1983. 2 Introduction AW EVEWTFEL TEAR 1.

For more than forty years the Audubon High School yearbook has been referred to as The Wheeler. However, the yearbook has had several names. In the 1920’s the yearbook was known as The Analyst. The 1930’s seemed to be a period of change. The yearbook was named The Red and White, but it reverted back to The Analyst for a year before re- turning to The Red and White. One innovative class tabbed the book The White and Red. The name was then changed to The Wheeler which remains after 44 years. The name The Wheeler is quite unique. While other schools have adopted team nicknames of the Lions, Tigers, or Eagles, Audubon High has a one-of-a-kind nickname. A look back in history gives us the details of how the Wheeler was born. The name “Wheeler” was first associated with Audubon High in 1937. An Audubon coach (all sports) Dwight H. “Moose” Hoover wanted a nickname for Audubon players as a boost to morale and school spirit. A poll of the student body and actual vote by the football team christened the teams as the “Wheelers”. The idea was that the school was the hub of the wheel with the team, fans, faculty, etc. as the spokes. Other students of that era remember each of the spokes depicting an appropriate athletic vir- tue. However the origin, the “Wheeler” has remained a distinctive symbol of pride. Wheeler performers have distinguished themselves with determination, sportsmanship, and gritty effort. It is with the same sense of pride that we present this year’s edition of The Wheeler to remind students of the proud heri- tage of being able to say, “We are the Wheelers.” 4 Theme OF THE WHEELER 1. Jon Hostager and Paul Grotluschen gave a witty pol- ished performance at Class Night. 2. The Class of '83 faces the future. 3. Gina Hansen seems to have something amusing to say to Angie Slothouber, Jodi Keast, and Lori Mace. 4. Greetings in the corri- dor from Brian Bruch and Dave Tessman. 5.

Twenty-two girls have the opportuni- ty to participate in cheerleading the next year. The selected girls then start practice during the summer. This year the girls lifted weights two times a week to build up certain muscles which would help the cheerleaders perform the stunts with more accuracy and stability. New uniforms and pom pons were selected and ordered by the Varsity Squad in the spring. Every four years new uniforms are purchased. They are given to the varsity, and the previous uniforms are handed down to the other squads. The 1982-83 cheerleaders did not attend camp this summer. They decided not to go because of the large amount of money that was spent on the uniforms. The uniforms were paid for mostly by the Pep Club. Cheerleading has many rewarding benefits. New friends are made, and important responsibilities are fulfilled. The cheerleaders are able to make a definite contribution to AHS. 20 Cheerleaders UP WITH WHEELER POWER 1.

The Audubon High School Pep Club is made up of members of the student body. This year all of the members are girls. The Pep Club bought new uniforms and pom pons for the varsity cheerleading squad. To raise money, the club worked concessions every home football game and a few win- ter sports concessions. Students are a very important part of a game, the players need the support of the students at all times; winning or losing. The students’ support is necessary to give the school some life and excitement. During Homecoming week, the students had a different dress-up day for each school day. They dressed up to get the spirit going. Pep Club took care of the Homecoming pep rally and also the ceremonies which were held on Thursday night this year. The Pep Club’s main objective is to keep the spirit alive and exciting at AHS. 22 Pep Club KEITH CROWE Winner of 13 Varsity Letters FOOTBALL—Letter Winner 1979,1981 1st Team All-Midwest Conference (Punter) 1981 2nd Team All-Midwest Conference (Lineman) 1981 2nd Team All-Southwest Iowa, Punter—average 41.1 tackles (166)—1981 Team leader tackier pass Receptions 1981 Team Captain 1981 BASKETBALL-Letter Winner, 1980,1981,1982 All-Southwest Iowa Honorable Men. 1st team All-Midwest Conference, unanimous, 1981,1982 Iowa Daily Press All-State Hon.

The most frequent comments heard from coaches are Wendy Layland • Karen Madsen “Keep Stats” and “Are there any Mark Adkins Karla Nelsen towels?”. Some of the managers’ jobs are keeping statistics, getting equipment ready for on or off the field or court.

Only Eight runners reported for the season: Seniors Jim Lauridsen, Paul Groteluschen, and Jon Hostager. Juniors Kyle Karstens and Darrin Asmus and Sophomores Dan Hostager, Jeff Stearns, and Rich Andersen. The team finished second in the Woodbine Invitational and third at the Midwest Conference meet. Indi- vidually, Dan Hostager led the team throughout the season. He finished tenth at the conference meet; other high finishes at conference were Jim Lauridsen eleventh and Jeff Stearns twelfth. 1.

Cross Country 25 MANY LETTERMEK “We’ve got to be the best 0-5 team around Iowa,” was a comment made earlier in the season by head coach, Don Kristensen. He proved to be right as the Wheelers split the last four games, beating Manning and Saydel and losing to Atlantic and Perry respectively. There were 15 returning lettermen, four juniors and eleven seniors. One of the highlights of the year was the Saydel game which was played on a rain-drenched field. The players were unable to be recognized as the mud and water got the best of them. There were many turnovers, but no team ever capitalized on any of them. The Wheelers scored early in the second quarter and that took care of all the scoring as the Wheelers went away with a 6-0 victory. Receiving awards for 1st Team All Conference was Pat Obermeier, Punter 2nd Team all Conference awards were given to Joel Williamson, Running Back and De- fensive Linebacker, and Jon Feltner, Defensive Linebacker. Receiving Honorable Mention awards were Jeff Heller, Offensive Lineman Ethan Muzney, End, Pat Obermeier Quarterback, Clint Schmidt, Place Kicker, Kris Johnson, Defensive End and, Kent Inman, Defensive Lineman. 26 Football MAKE SEASON EXCITING 1.

DISPLAYS TALLY! “A few more players and a little more time,” replied Coach Tom Rasmussen, “is needed to become a good football team.” Because of the shortage of both freshman and J.V. players, the two were combined to play together, although the freshman played two games of their own. The team suffered a disappointing season with a record of 1-3-2. The most exciting game of the season was against Jefferson. With the Wheelers behind by a score of 7-8, Jefferson was in a punting situation. Mike Palm burst through the line and blocked the punt. He then picked up the ball and scrambled 38 yards for a touchdown. The young Wheelers won the contest by a score of 13-8. The J.V. held many promising pros- pects for the 1983 season. Leading rushers for the J.V. were Alan Klein, Steve Williamson, Jim Han- sen, Jim Shima, and Scott Goodrich. The leading passer was Jim Hansen. The J.V. football team consists of: Front Row: Mike Christensen, Troy Bruun, Jim Hansen, Steve Williamson, Joel Elmquist, Tim Feltner, David Swank, Mike Palm; Second Row: Jim Feddersen, Scott Jorgensen, Jim Shima, Alan Klein, Dan Bald, Charles Heiner, Erik Madsen; Third Row: Scott Goodrich, Scott Karns, Tony Jacobsen, Jason Andersen, Thad Hoffman, Robbie Johansen; Fourth Row: Shane Bohlmann, Chad RustVold, Jeff Nielsen, Pat Heller, Linn Shoesmith; Fifth Row: Chuck Cleveland, Gene Jorgensen, Brett Larsen, Joel Porsch, Back Row: Coach Tom Ras- mussen, Coach Craig Edsen. Football 29 LISA IS CROWNED QUEEN The 1982 Homecoming festivities started a week before the game when the Homecoming queen candidates were announced at a student pep rally. Spirit week was started by having dress-up days for each day—Indian, Cowboy, Dress- up, Backwards, and Red and White. Then, for a change, the queen was crowned on Thursday night to en- able the queen to reign thru the pa- rade and during the game. Thus, the queen was able to receive more recognition. The homecoming flower girl was Carrie Schmidt, crown bearer was Emily Howland, and football carrier was Chris Bock. When Lisa Bock was asked how she felt when she was crowned, she said that she was watching the other candidates to find out what the winner’s reaction would be. Then, when she was crowned queen, she thought it was a mistake. 30 Homecoming 1. Lisa Bock's excitement causes her to have trouble keeping on her crown. 2.

Coach Baker commented, “We should have beaten some of the teams we didn’t. We started the season strong, but some internal problems caused a lull in mid-sea- son, but the problems were worked out and the team pulled together to earn a third-place conference tourney finish.” The Varsity posted a 9-11-2 record. The JV completed their season with a 10-2 record. And the C-team end- ed at 8-2-2. Audubon achieved a third place ranking in the Conference Tournament only being surpassed by Jefferson and Denison. At the conclusion of the season four girls were chosen for All-Conference honors. Angie Christensen and Karla Nelsen were selected for first team, and Honorable Mention was given to Lori Swanson and Rhonda Jorgensen. Angie Christensen was also selected for All-State Honorable Mention. With seven returning lettermen, the Wheelerettes look forward to another improved season in power volleyball. 36 Volleyball A VICTORY 1.

Volleyball 37 BALL BOUNCES WRONG EOR BOYS The Audubon Wheeler basketball team had their troubles during the middle of the year which led to their disappointing season. The Wheelers finished 3-16 overall and 1-11 in the conference. The fact that there were only two returning lettermen this year might have played a big part in the outcome. The Wheelers averaged 48 points per game while their op- ponents averaged 66 points per game. The young Wheeler team shot 58 percent from the charity line while their opponents shot 60 percent. Leading scorers for Audubon were Paul Groteluschen and Terry Jensen, averaging 13 and 12 points a game. Leading rebounders were Paul Groteluschen and Steve Davis with 8 and 7 rebounds a game. The assist department was led by Terry Jensen with 11. The most exciting game of the sea- son was with Exira at Exira. With the Wheelers down by 20 points in the third quarter, they were not go- ing to give up. With the outside shooting of Kevin Edelman and Ter- ry Jensen and the rebounding of Steve Davis, they staged a remarkable comeback. Down by 5 points, Terry Jensen, a key factor in the comeback, fouled out with 3 minutes remaining in the game. Ethan Muzney was fouled and sank two free throws, and on the Wheel- er’s next possession, Muzney hit a game-tieing 3-pointer. The Wheelers were fouled again and hit the front end of the one-and-one, but missed the second. Exira’s Jeff Wilkerson took the ball down the court, and while falling to the floor, he threw up a desperation shot, and it went in at the sound of the buzzer. The Vikings beat the Wheelers 80-79. Paul Groteluschen was awarded Sec- ond-team All-Conference.

PEAYERS As did the Varsity, the J.V. suffered a disappointing season with a 112 record. Their only victory came against Perry. The freshmen finished with a 0-8 record. Although most of the games were close, they seemed to favor the opponent. The leading scorers for J.V. were Ethan Muzney and Scott Jorgensen with 9 and 8 points per game, while Scott Goodrich led the freshmen scorers. The main purpose of J.V. and fresh- man basketball programs is to prepare them for varsity basketball. As the players progress, their bask- etball skill will grow and should prove to be exciting in the future. 2 1. The freshman team members include: Front row: manager — Andy Walther, Jeff Swank, Steve Petersen, Kevin Olsen, Coach Besch; Back row: Shane Bohlmann, Tom Coyle, Chuck Cleveland, Scott Goodrich. 2.

The freshman ended with a 7 and 3 record, and the Junior Varsity fin- ished 8 and 6. The games they played will give them more playing experience and teach them the rules and strategies needed for Varsity play. The freshman’s leading scorers were Sheri Hupp averaging 19 points per game and Nancy Lange averaging 11 points per game. The leading de- fensive rebounders were Jeanette Gust with 4.2 rebounds and Janelle Gust with 3.9 rebounds. On the J.V. team the three leading scorers were Lisa Mennenoh averag- ing 17 points a game, Kathy Bourne with an average of 13 points, and Tereasa Sunberg averaging 9 points.

Girls Basketball 41 - - ea H 0 £ - 3 H B - The Varsity girls played an exciting season, splitting the season with a 10 and 10 record. Time after time the girls came out on top after be- ing named the underdog of several games. Kristie Wahlert and Rhonda Jorgensen were the Wheelerettes leading scorers. Kristie averaged 21, and Rhonda added 14 per game. Kristie and Rhonda also were the leading forward rebounders averag- ing 3 rebounds per game. Kathy Kautzky was the leading guard rebounder with 4 per game. The team shot 66% from the free throw line and 47% from the field. In the Midwest Conference Kathy Kautzky was named First team guard, Kristie Wahlert made Second team forward, Rhonda Jorgensen and Shannon Bohlmann received honorable mentions. Coach Adkins said, “This has been our toughest season. We had by far the toughest defense in the conference; we just had too many turnovers. With seven returning Juniors for next year, we will have another successful season.” 42 Girls Basketball 1.

The Wheelers lost the conference ti- tle by a very narrow margin and took second place behind a tough Jefferson team. The team then came back at sectionals and wres- tled very well and beat Jefferson taking the title by a slim Vi point. Each time it came down to the last match and depended on whether a Jefferson wrestler won, lost, or pinned. Joel Williamson had the best record of 30 wins and only 4 losses; he also had the most pins—25. Clint Schmidt had a total of 93 takedowns leading the team. Coaches commented that the boys wrestled very well at sectionals, but when lit came to districts, we won many of the matches that we should have, but we never did pull any upsets that should come in the course of a meet. The Wheelers did advance three seniors to state who represented Audubon with style. Mr. Kiger, the wrestling coach for the past fifteen years, commented that this year’s seniors have won matches and tournaments ever since their freshman year. They will be greatly missed. 44 Wrestling SECTIONALS BY A Vs POINT 1.

ENDS SEASON 7-1 The Junior Varsity wrestling squad had a very good season and had a winning season like Varsity. The record for duals was seven wins and only one loss. There will be some strong returning lettermen to bolster the Varsity next season. There were thirteen sophomores and freshmen that earned a letter. 1. Brett Larsen is concentrating on how he will get up and away from his opponent. 2. Coaches for wres- tling are Assistant Coach Tryon, As- sistant Coach Kristensen, and Head Coach Kiger. 3. Are you going to let him do that,” seems to be the response of Pat Heller. 4. Mike Palm is trying to block the takedown of his opponent. Wrestling 47 TRACK TEAMS SET The weather and temperatures may not have been good, but it was a super season for the girls track team. Coach Pam Baker had a record number of 26 girls report for spring practice. There were several other firsts for this year’s team. It was the first time the girls had ever won a meet, won the Wheeler Re- lays, or had a state champion. The team qualified four events for the state track meet; qualifying were Angie Christensen and Rhonda Jorgensen in the long jump, Rhonda Jorgensen in the 100-meter dash, and the 400-meter relay team of Kathy Bourne, Kari Hinners, Angie Christensen, and Rhonda Jorgensen. The relay team set a new school record of 49.91 and were the state 2A champions. Rhonda finished third at state in the 100 meters with a 12.43 clocking (also a school record) and fourth in the long jump. The 17 team points earned them 8th place in the state meet. This year’s team set new school records in six events. Others not yet mentioned were in the 3200-meter relay, shuttle hurdle relay, Steph- anie Muzney in the 1500-meter run, and Kathy Stone in the high jump. In losing only three girls from the team, it looks like continued success for the girls track program. 1. Members of the girls' track team are: Front row: Stephanie Muzney, Sheri Hupp, Kelly Jorgensen, Michelle Kjergaard, Sue Gleason, Tammy Jones, Dix- ie Palm, Pam Wagner, Anita Petersen, Jeanette Gust, Janelle Gust, Donna Hjuler; Back row: Coach Pam Baker, Angie Christensen, Brenda Hart, Sonya Sturgeon, Shanell Moreland, Theresa Knueven, Kathy Stone, Jill Jespersen, Kathy Bourne, Molly Parris, Rhonda Jorgensen, Tereasa Sunberg, Kari Hinners, Sheila Barron, and Brandy Schmidt. 2.

Audubon’s state qualifiers were Ter- ry Jensen in the 100 meter dasb and Paul Groteluschen in the 800 meter run and the long jump. Paul finished sixth in the state in the 800 meter run. The two new school records set this year were established by Joel Williamson with a 51.5 time in the 400 meter dash and Dan Hostager running 10:00.22 in the 3200 me- ters. Walther, Ricb Andersen, Mark Adkins, Mike Palm, Clint Han- sen, Alan Klein, Paul Groteluschen, Chris Kauffman, Rick Lebeck, Andy Smalley, Ter- ry Jensen, and Joel Williamson. 2. Terry Jensen practices explod- ing out of the blocks. Co-captains for the ’83 season were Joel Williamson, Terry Jensen, Chris Kauffman, and Paul Groteluschen. It was the team’s depth that gave them their strength as they were able to place in almost every event. Tbe boys’ team will have fourteen letterwinners back for next season, but the six seniors will leave some difficult shoes to fill. Boys Track 49 GOLFERS LOOK FORWARD The Wheelerette golf team finished another successful season as they went 4-3 in dual meets and de- fended their title at the Guthrie Center Invitational Tourney. The highlight of the year was finishing second at the sectionals and advancing to the district tournament where they finished fourth. Lesley Boysen and Renee Kallesen co-captained the team that saw four different members earn medalist honors and will return four letter winners for next season. Winning the award as the top new golfer and most improved was Freshman Shelley Rudolph. The J.V. team earned a 3-3 dual mark, and all eight players return for even better scores next year. 1. Members of the Wheelerette Golf team are: Front row: Lisa Franck, Julie Krier, Gina Han- sen, Jodi Keast, and Amy Swain; Back row: Lesley Boysen, Renee Kalleson, Sharon Garber, Kris Jensen, Angie Slothouber, Linda Nickum, Heidi Mendenhall, and Coach Tom Rasmussen. 2.

At most meets, all but one team member was a freshman or sophomore. The Wheelers did win one dual meet, and the J.V. was 3- 4. Coach Don Wagner stated, “The key word is gaining experience.” If the team members put in the hours at the golf course during the sum- mer to improve their games, Audubon could be a real contender next season. With six letterwinners returning, the future does indeed look bright for the Wheeler golfers. 1. Scott Goodrich aims for a perfect chip shot. 2. Craig Mountain takes special care to sink a fifteen foot putt. 3. Dan Wagner watches closely as Brad Nickum addresses his tee-shot. 4. The members of the Wheeler Golf team are: Front row: Doug Baumhover, Kent Owen, Pat Heller, Kyle Karstens, Scott Goodrich, and Erik Madsen; Sec- ond row: David Elmquist, Craig Mountian, Thad Hoffman, Larry Hinners, Scott Jorgensen, Linn Shoesmith, Wes Owen, Dan Wagner, and Tom Coyle. Boys Golf 51 WHAT A ‘RACQUET’ The Audubon girls’ tennis team battled the cold, wet spring in even trying to get some practice time on the courts. The girls managed to schedule and re-schedule nine dual meets of which they won three. They finished sixth in the Atlantic Invitational and fifth in the sectional tournament. Renee Nielsen won her first two matches in the sectional be- fore losing in the semi-finals and fin- ishing fourth. Renee Nielsen was the 1 singles player all season and finished with a 9-6 record. Other singles players in order of rank were 2 Karen Saltmarsh, 3 Joan Wanninger, 4 Nicole Aldrich, 5 Carol Jorgensen, and 6 Carla Nielsen. The tennis team has four returning letterwinners to bolster next seasons efforts. 1. The girls tennis team consist- ed of: Front row: Nancy Lange, Marlys Christensen, Nicole Aldrich, Karen Saltmarsh; Back row: Renee Nielsen, Carol Jorgensen, Joan Wanninger, Car- la Nielsen, Sherri Weitl, and Coach Knutson. 2.

Not pictured are Steve Davis, Matt Buser, and Steve Rabe. The boys tennis team finished the season with a 3-6 record. The team was a majority of under classmen and the only senior was our foreign exchange student Graham Smith. Graham was a valuable addition to the team as he earned the � single’s position throughout the sea- son. Graham advanced to the semi- finals at the sectional tournament before finishing fourth. Holding down the other singles positions were 2 Steve Davis, 3 Brent Young, 4 Craig Feddersen, 5 Matt Buser, and 6 Steve Rabe. The tennis team will return six letterwinners. With this year’s experience, the team looks forward to an improved season next year. Boys Tennis 53 hit ’w Ruwwiar The Wheeler baseball team had six returning starters from last season. The team ended up with a 8-12 overall record and a 4-7 conference record. The record doesn’t reflect the true ability of the squad. Weather played a decisive role in the outcome of many games. Seven letter winners, three of which are pitchers, will be returning next year. “Our pitchers gained valuable experience over the season” com- mented Coach Henkenius. The All-Midwest Conference selections on the second team from Audubon were Clint Schmidt, infield- er, and Steve Hupp, outfielder. 54 Baseball WITH THE WHEELERS 1.

The number of errors and inexperi- ence played a major role in the outcome of the season. The inexpe- rience of the team showed up in the pitching staff with the loss of All- Conference selection Jamie McLaughlin. The co-captains were Betsy Nelsen and Gina Bruun. Betsy Nelsen also received honors as 2nd Team All- Conference, Utility Player and All- Tourney at the Elk Horn Tourney as catcher. Kathy Kautzky also re- ceived honors at the Elk Horn Tourney as All-Tourney Designated Hitter. Senior Betsy Nelsen led the team in batting with a .328 average. Follow- ing close behind were Laurel Kauffman at .317 and Dalena Ditto at .297. Lori Foresman led the team in RBI’s. The team graduated seven lettermen, but six lettermen return to action for a more promising ’83 season.

The officers this year were: President Clint Hansen, Vice- President Andy Smalley, Secretary Kathy Kautzky, and Treasurer Joni Elmquist. The Student Senate proved to be philanthropic as they donated a bowling and kitchen set to the Friendship Home. Other donations were made possible from pop mon- ey. The Student Senate keeps five cents from every pop sold within the school, divides it, and donates it to each school organization. They also raised and lowered the flag each day and sent flowers to the teachers on their birthdays and to students in the hospital. They set up assembly programs for the student body. The president’s main purpose was to take items of concern to the school board. Probably the most popular of these was the idea of having chocolate milk at lunch one day out of the week and buying “Wheelie the Eagle”, the school mascot for the upcoming year. The officers next year are looking forward to a successful relationship between home rooms and the Student Senate. 1. One of the responsibilities of the student senate was to oversee the elections of next year's officers. Pictured during the campaign speeches are Lisa Bock, Diana Nissen, Angie Christensen, Paul Groteluschen, Clint Hansen, Joel Elmquist, Anthony Lopez, Andy Smalley, Ann Henriksen, Lori Mace, and Michelle Nissen. 70 Student Senate PEERS ARE POSITIVE This is the second year for the Peer Helpers in Audubon. This group is organized out of the junior and senior students who are willing to donate their time to help their peers. The class meets two times a week and is overseen by Mr. E. Rasmussen and Mrs. Paulsen. The purpose of the class is to learn to listen and understand what peo- ple say to you so you can try to help them out with a problem. Dur- ing the first semester the Peer Helpers meet as a class to learn the basic listening and caring skills. The peers go out to the junior high and Friendship Home to talk to people and practice the skills they have learned. 1.

Peer Group 71 THREE RECEIVE IOWA The FFA Chapter has proven to be very helpful in the community this year with several different communi- ty projects. During the summer they helped keep the livestock pens clean at the county fair; other members repaired the welcome sign north of Audubon after it was damaged during a windstorm. Other community projects included the construction of a rabbit cage for the Friendship Home, loaning soil testers and other equipment to area farmers and donating four boxes of fruit to the Friendship Home. Eight members attended the 54th State Leadership Conference in Ce- dar Rapids. During the conference members gained new ideas by ob- serving various chapter, state, and business displays. Seven members attended the National FFA Convention where they received an award for being a National Superior Chapter. Three Audubon students received the Iowa Farmer degree at the State Conference in Des Moines; they were Larry Hinners, Randy Wolf, and Bruce Steffes. Each win- ner must have participated in five leadership activities above the local level, served as an officer or com- mittee chairman, kept up on their scholastic work and other important activities. Only two and one-half percent of all the FFA members in the state are chosen for the award, and they were 3 of the 250 Iowans to receive it. 1.

FFA 73 ASSEMBLIES ADD VARIETY The student body was the recipient of several assemblies during the year. The annual Veterans’ Day as- sembly was held in November. High- lighting the program was remarks made by several local veterans. The National Honor Society tapped in new members in front of students last fall. The band Flair returned providing over an hour of enter- tainment. The play “Kegger”, which provided much interest and contro- versy, was performed in January. The Central College Stage Band en- tertained students during their high school tour. Another event of much interest was when the army flew in helicopters this spring for a display. These assemblies provide an expo- sure of experiences outside the com- munity and develop a sense of ap- preciation for programs we have in Audubon. 74 Assemblies DRAMA CLUB ACTS OUT HKAHA '1,1'It MEMBERS Joni Elmquist Angie Porsch Duane Fancher Andy Smalley Patti Hansen Corinne Young Jon Hostager Mike Broich Karen Madsen Tony Danzer Carol Jorgensen Kris Jensen Heidi Mendenhall Jodi Keast Carolyn Noelck Wendy Layland Jody Rudolph Lori Mace Joan Wanninger Jody Malmberg Matt Buser Craig Mountain Dan Chambers Michelle Nissen Craig Feddersen Denise Rudolph Sharon Garber Janet Wanninger Clint Hansen Mark Adkins Lisa Hutchins Tom Coyle Karla Jensen Judi Jorgensen Anthony Lopez Annette McCuen Kim Malmberg Stephanie Muzney Renee Nielsen Shelley Rudolph The members of drama club are the backbone of the three shows pro- duced during the year.

He is from Wagga Wagga, Australia which is a largely populated town of 50,000. Graham has six older brothers and sisters and one younger sister. When asked if it was easy to leave home for a year, Graham replied, “It wasn’t hard to leave my parents because I’ve been in boarding school for four years.” Graham attended a boarding school for four years because of the agri- culture program offered. He attend- ed Murrum Brdgee, a college of ag- riculture, for a semester before journeying to the U.S. Before making his trip, Graham imagined the U.S. as a place with a faster flowing lifestyle. When asked how he liked the U.S., Graham replied, “I have thoroughly enjoyed meeting and becoming friends with all of them.” 76 A.F.S. FROM THE “LAiVO IKW.Y UiVDER” American Field Service (A.F.S.) hosted exchange students from southwest Iowa during the weekend of October 29. The foreign ex- change students and their American brothers and sisters attended. Other American students who spent their summer abroad also were included. The students arrived Friday after- noon. They attended classes with their local A.F.S. host student. Fri- day evening they carpooled to at- tend the Wheeler football game in Atlantic. The activities on Saturday mainly centered around Halloween. Our students explained this tradition to the foreign students, and later they carved pumpkins and went through a haunted house, the stu- dents were also shown around Audubon, visiting Albert the Bull, Testroet’s Country Kennels, and Talbot’s horse farm. On Sunday, students had a good-bye potluck with the families. A.F.S. weekend was a tremendous success once again this year for our local chapter. The primary purpose of the student chapter is to allow students to pursue interests in international understanding through personal relationship with someone from another culture. President Sherri Weitl, Vice-Presi- dent Carol Jorgensen, Secretary- Treasurer Joan Wanniger, Past officer Patti Hansen, and program activity chairman Heidi Mendenhall are the student chapter officers. 1.

Hi-Y 79 “ALWAYS OS MY MIND “Always on my Mind” was the theme for the 1982 Country Ball chosen by the Y-teens. Y-teens decided to change Harvest Ball to a Country Ball, with having it be a semi-formal or formal dance. The decorations consisted of leaves on windows, haybales, barn boards, and also a horse and wagon drawing, all to transform the cafeteria to a country scene. The dance was held on Friday the 19th of November, from 8:30 until midnight. Tickets were sold for $6.00 couples and $4.00 for singles. The Y-teens chose “Reflections” for the band this year. They sang the theme song, and also other popular songs such as “Physical” and “Lady.” The King, Queen, Prince, and Prin- cess were chosen by the Y-teens and Hi-Y. This years King and Queen were Paul Groteluschen and Joni Hansen, and Prince and Prin- cess were Jim Shima and Shanell Moreland. The Royal Court were presented with gifts, and the Queen and Princess also received roses. It was an enjoyable evening for all. 80 Country Ball 1.

Art Club 85 “BABES IA ARMS” The 1940 Broadway hit by Rodgers and Hart was brought to life again at AHS auditorium. With predominantly underclassman in most roles, “Babes in Arms” fit the scene. “Babes in Arms” centers around the lives of the Surf and Sand Play- house apprentices who are trying to put on a revue so they will become famous. Enter Seymour Fleming, the dastardly theatre owner who tries to undermine the revue. Seymour pro- motes “The Deep North” written, directed, and acted by Lee Calhoun. Even with all of his efforts, the ap- prentices succeed in presenting a fabulous revue for Steve Edwards. Learning lines, long practices, and committment from each person was necessary to put on a good show. Corinne Young sums up everyone’s feelings by commenting “It took a lot of hard work, but, in the end, it’s worth it. 86 Musical SPOTLIGHTS YOUNG ACTORS The Press Agent Terry Thompson Gus Field APPRENTICES: Peter Betty Libby Ann Carol Bob Jim Frank Debbie Sheila Kathy Joe Jean Connie Valentine White Susie Ward Seymour Fleming Bunny Byron Lee Calhoun Jennifer Owen Phyllis Owen Steve Edwards DANCERS Tom Coyle DeEtte Ridgeway Mike Broich Dan Chambers Carolyn Noelck Heidi Mendenhall Lesley Boysen Patty Irlmeir Matt Buser Steve Petersen Scott Karns Michelle Nissen Karen Jensen Corinne Young Erik Madsen Wendy Layland Judi Jorgensen Craig Mountain Lori Mace Duane Fancher Jody Rudolph Jon Hostager Luise Smith Karla Jensen Graham Smith Shawn Jensen Lisa Franck Jody Malmberg Tina Murray Technical Crews: Corinne Young, Anthony Lopez, Tony Danzer, Jody Malmberg, Denise Rudolph, Bill Schmidt, Randy Jones, Brenton Young, Jim Shima, John Drake, Sheila Barron, Shelia Winther, Craig Feddersen, Kim Malmberg, Mike Broich.

Drama Department pre- sented “The Family Man,” for the 1983 Spring play. “The Family Man” was a story about a 40-year old man who breaks his leg, devel- ops complications, and has to stay home for six months. His wife then finds a job to support the family. Meanwhile, the “househusband” must tend to the kids, do the cooking and cleaning, and struggle with the ladies of the P.T.A. While at home experimenting in the cooking field, Mr. Cahill (Jon Hostager) whips up a new delicacy called “Scotch Fancies.” He sends his recipe and an essay “The Home is a Going Concern” to the Pride Happy Kitchen Hour under his wife’s name. When his recipe and essay win the contest, Mrs. Cahill won’t accept the award because it wasn’t her work. After much controversy, Mr. Cahill is named the Pride Homemaker of the Year.

M.O. 93 JOURNALISM SCOOPS Members of Red White are Patti Hansen, Karla Jensen, Mi- chelle Nissen, Matt Buser, Karen Jensen, Corinne Young, Kim Malmberg, Janice King, and 94 Red White their advisor Mrs. Hansen. 2. Karla Jensen and Michelle Nis- sen finish a lay-out design in plenty of time to meet their deadline. The Red and White staff worked full force this year producing an out- standing twenty editions. Producing a newspaper takes much dedication, hard work, and a nose for news from all of the staff members. Having two former members return for a second year of Journalism gave the Red White an early be- ginning. Their first edition appeared the week after school began. Karen and Karla Jensen, who attended Journalism camp at Iowa State, brought back many ideas and techniques for their future editions. For each edition, story and photo assignments are given to each mem- ber. After finding an angle for their stories and writing them, the staff must copy edit, proof, type, and write headlines. The copy is then sent to the News Advocate where other details are taken care of be- fore it is printed. The staff also designs their own layout for each page. Since the school newspaper is the only source of school news during the year, the reporters try to strive for informative news that isn’t known well by everyone. Because Audubon has a fairly small school, most students know the news day by day. For this reason, the staff members experimented with a feature page this year. Several jobs, including librarian, ex- change editor, graphics editor, and copy editor, are shared by different staff personnel. Each member on the Red White staff deserves a great deal of recognition for their time and dedication. All assignments are taken care of before or after school and during study halls. Dead- lines must be met. The Red White is published every other week in the News Advocate. STUDENTS’ ACTIVITIES At the beginning of the year the yearbook staff and advisor, Mr. Casey, went to a Yearbook Seminar in Atlantic. New ideas in photogra- phy and layouts were introduced to them. The staff was small but mighty this year. Only nine staff members ac- complished making the yearbook, a job normally done by fifteen. The members of the staff each had to meet their own deadlines in order to make the yearbook company’s deadlines. Extra hours outside of classroom time were needed to com- plete projects. The yearbook staff hopes that you will enjoy looking back at the '83 school year with reflections of the “good times.” 1.

The snow did cause prob- lems with decorating ideas for outside the school, but other ideas were carried through inside. The banquet was decorated in pas- tel rainbow colors with balloons, crepe paper streamers, and center- pieces. The ballroom was decorated in dark blue and light blue decora- tions with many silver and star decorations for accents. The banquet started with an intro- duction given by the junior class president, Clint Hansen, and fol- lowed with the meal which was served by a few freshmen selected by the junior class. The entertainment for the evening was given by Jody Rudolph singing “Up Where We Belong and Rosanna . Mrs. Donna Kessler gave the speech for the evening. The closing was giv- en by the senior class president, Connie Thygesen. The dance started at 9:00 and ran until 12:00. The band “Starfire” provided the music for the evening. 1.

The five members are state officials and receive no salary for their services. The members are elected by major- ity of the communities’ choice. Members of the School Board are to decide budgets of the school and salaries. They also decide all rules for the students that are put in the student handbook. 102 Schoolboard 1.

School Board 103 IMPROVEMENTS Improvement in education is the main goal of teachers at A.H.S. Changes are slowly occurring with many new projects under way. 1982-83 was the beginning of the Think-Write workshops. The purpose of the project during the first year is to design a plan for the develop- ment of critical thinking and writing skills among rural students. Mr. Adkins, Mr. Henkenius, and Mr. Casey attended the workshops and will be working together to set up the program. Mr. Henkenius stated, “We’ll teach writing as a way of critical thinking. Instead of using matching or multiple choice, we’ll teach the same thing through writing. When learning something by memorizing, you don’t remember as well as when you write.” Eventually they would like every class to use it more, but for now they are experimenting in English and history. Another improvement in education has been the computers. During the past several years, the computer field has been booming. Before 1979, A.H.S. had no computers nor a computer class. Presently, A.H.S. has seven computers throughout the school. As the computer field contin- ues to grow, more people are enter- ing the career field in electronics and technology of computers. In the next few years, more progress will be made in this area. A.H.S. is always looking for more methods of improving the curriculum to insure a quality education. Think- Write and computers are just two additions to provide the necessary skills for the students of A.H.S. 104 Faculty 1 EDUCATION 1.

The bus drivers play an im- portant role in our school sys- tem as they provide safe, reli- able transportation for many students. 2. Sylvia Christensen is a secretary in the superinten- dent's office. 3. Joyce Groteluschen is a secretary in the principal's office. 4. Jean Dustin is a secretary in the principal's office. 5. Lois Kauffman is the computer specialist in the office. 6. Ann Carter is the secretary in the counseling center. 7. Hazel Christensen plays a big role in keeping our school sparkling clean. PERFORMS VITAL FUACTIOA The supporting staff has once again made this school year a success. Ev- eryone did his part to make things go smoothly. The secretaries get to school before most of the students are, ready to tackle the day of work ahead. They take phone calls, notes and excuses, type reports and tests, mimeograph, up date students files, and keep ac- curate financial records. The bus drivers play one of the most important roles of the school system. They are responsible for all of the rural students’ transportation. The meals are carefully planned by the Kitchen Personnel. They have to find a variety of ways to prepare the meals, but keep the nutritional content balanced. The kitchen and cafeteria are kept clean to meet the State Cleanliness standards. The Custodians are the ones who keep the school clean. Their hours seem interminable; they are prepar- ing the school before any of the stu- dents arrive for the day and leave after all school activities. The combined efforts of all the supporting staff help keep our school in top-notch working order. 1. The cooks are Shirley Spencer, Virginia Barnholdt, Francis Wal- ters, and Shirley Siedelmann. 2. Ralph Doonan, Rich Jensen, and Ralph Mathieson, are the three custodians. Supporting Staff 109 A NEW BEGINNING The freshman year of high school is the year of beginning and a year of setting goals a student wants to achieve during his four years of high school. Students entering high school aslo get the name “dumb frosh” or just become an underclassman. During freshman year, students don’t get much of a choice of the classes they take. Four classes are required: English I, a math class, science, and American history; if a fifth class is wanted, they can choose from home ec., vo. ag., or other classes. The selection is some what limited because many classes require a prerequisite class. When asked what some freshman students liked about high school over jr. high, some of the responses were: open campus for semester tests (which happened both in the fall and spring), longer lunch periods, and more classes from which to choose. I 110 Freshman FOR FRESHMEN Nancy Lange, Janelle Gust, Bran- dy Schmidt, Judi Jorgensen, Ju- lie Deist, Tammy Jones, Cheryl Baumhover, Amy Eddy, Lynne Christensen, Jeanette Gust, Tina King, Linda Lebeck, Annette McCuen, Karin Buser, Robbie Johansen, Kim Firebaugh, Scott Goodrich, and Roger Madsen. 4.

SOPHOMORES: WORKING TO The sophomore year of high school is an in-between year. They are no longer “dumb frosh,” yet they aren’t upperclassmen either. More electives are available during the second year of high school. There are only two classes required this year, World History Geography and English II. This year’s sophomores are involved in many outside activities. There are many sophomore students who are in Chorus and are an active part of Swing Choir. Many students also take part in basketball, wrestling, cheerleading, football, and other school activities. The sophomore class this year is good-sized. They showed the school their spirit on many Friday’s at pep rallies by coming close or even winning the spirit stick on battle-cry. This was a hard task to accomplish because the senior class has more students and they usually had won it in the past years. The sophomore’s next years will be the most fun years of high school. They are looking forward to being upperclassmen. Next year they will be sitting in the Junior-Senior catwalk and planning Prom '84. As they progress, they must also under- take increased responsibilites. But, the rewards they will receive are far greater than any they’ve known be- fore. 118 Sophomores LEARN 1.

This year the junior class chose “Up Where We Belong” as the theme. Each junior served on one of the committees for planning the prom: Entrance, Ballroom, Diningroom, In- vitations and Pictures, or the Food committee. All the Juniors chose 10 waiters and 10 waitresses from the freshmen class. It took cooperation and enthusiasm from all the juniors to successfully produce Prom ’83.

For every five records, tapes or cas- settes one sold, they received one free tape, cassette or record. This year’s top salesperson was Angie Porsch, with Craig Feddersen being second-top salesperson. Juniors had a pretty good money making year. 1.
