Maybe it was the record-breaking heat wave during the summer months that encouraged us to concern our- selves with the weather (the seasons). After the consecutive 90 degree days of August, we were ready for a change, but the change didn’t have to be quite so drastic. During December we had records again — record snowfalls and tem- peratures. Before Christmas Old Man Winter descended on us with - 20 degree temperatures with the wind chill factor of 100 degrees be- low. Storms left motorists stranded throughout the state. Following the pattern, the spring months were an uncharacteristically cold and wet time. Even by the end of April, our warmest day was an unseasonably mild day on February 27. As the cool temperatures contin- ued, we skipped spring altogether and jumped to summer-like tempera- tures during the last week of school. However, the yearbook staff se- lected the theme for other reasons. Students' schedules revolved around the seasons. The sports seasons, the seasons for concerts and contests make up a big part of students' time. These seasons are the ones that provide some of our most memorable moments at AHS. It is these times that reflect the words to the song, “We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun.” 2 Theme Seasons in the Sun 1.

Theme 3 1983-84 Has Been Once again the year 1983-84 was filled with controversies. It remained a time of political and economic un- rest in Central America, specifically in Honduras, Nicaragua, and El Sal- vador. Bombings and military inva- sions continued in Lebanon, Israel, Iran, Palestine, and Saudia Arabia. In September the USSR shot down a Korean Jetliner with 269 passengers aboard. The U.S. sol- diers were on a peace-keeping mission in Beirut for several months before the American public boister- ously welcomed their evacuation. This year saw the U.S. invasion of Grenada to escort Americans from the island. There were high hopes for better East-West diplomatic relations after the death of Yuri Andropov and the naming of Konstantin Chernenko as his Soviet successor. This year also recorded the deaths of newscaster Frank Reynolds, singer Ethel Mer- man, and Barney Clark, the first artificial heart recipient. This was the year for the Winter Olympics in Sarajevo, Yugoslavia. American names that will be remembered are Debbie Armstrong and Christin Cooper in the slalom, Peter and Kitty Carruthers in pair skating, Scott Hamilton in figure skating, Billy Johnson’s victory in the downhill, and Phil and Steve Mahre. One of the remarkable per- formances was of Great Britain’s Torvel and Dean in ice dancing. This was the year of Michael Jackson. He won eight Grammy awards and will be remembered for his songs “Thriller, “Beat It,” and “Billy Jean.” Another star emerged as Clara Peller swept the country in her Wendy’s commercials, “Where’s the beef?” 1984 was the year for politics. Walter Mondale, Gary Hart, George McGovern, Jesse Jackson, Alan Cranston, Fritz Hollings, and others travelled to Iowa to win the vote for the Democratic nomination in Iowa’s caucus. On the local level, a bevy of candidates vied for positions in one of the largest primaries in history. 1984 marked the Summer Olym- pics in Los Angeles. A Soviet boycott of the event also caused 12 other countries from sending teams to the event. 1983-84 has been a year of turmoil. The events will encourage us to place the year in the perspec- tive of time. 4 Opening a Year of Turmoil 1.

He won the award after out- scoring more than 600 Iowa high school stu- dents. Opening 5 SUMMER 6 Division Page Fun, Fantasy, and 8 Florida Trip This page sponsored by Audubon Furniture Mart. Frogs in Florida After four years of saving money and fund-raiser after fund-raiser, the AHS Wheeler Band took their famed trip to Orlando, Florida, to march in the Walt Disney World Pa- rade. The trip started on Monday, May 30, when two Trailways buses left the Audubon school parking lot at 7:48 A M. The bus ride was event- ful. Twelve people in bus 2 crowded in the very small bathroom, but bus 1 claimed to have fourteen potty-packers. Many songs were sung and new versions were made for them while others tried to sleep. The buses arrived in Orlando at 4:30 P.M., Tuesday, May 31. Every- one went swimming, and then there was a pizza party. That night, toads were everywhere—in people’s beds, suitcases, and clothes. Wednesday, June 1, was the day for which everyone had waited. The group enjoyed Disney World until 2:00 and then all prepared for the 3:30 parade. That night there was a late night pool and whirlpool party. On Thursday the band went to Seaworld from 9:30 to 1:00 at which time they left for Jetty Park Beach. They swam and “sunned” at the beach from two until six, the only cloudy day of the trip. From 8:30 until 12:30, the motel spon- sored a disco dance for the band. Later, there was another pool party which was planned for 1:30 but was postponed unti 3:00 because the chaperones were patrolling the area. While people were swimming, their beds happened to be short-sheeted. On Friday, the band went to Epcot center from 9:30 A.M. to 7:00 P M After a long day at Epcot, the band left for home. The band was stuck in Atlanta for two hours while the buses were washed, and most people tried to sleep all the way back, but there were a few that still put shaving cream all over those that tried to sleep. The buses arrived in Audubon at 5:40 Sunday morning. The band arrived home tired and weary but with some super memories of their trip to Florida. 1.

Wheelers Sparkle on the Diamond The Wheelers finished the 1983 baseball season with a 12-10 record including a 7-5 mark in the always tough Midwest Conference. Evidence of the conference’s strength was Jef- ferson, who finished second in the class 3A state tourney despite a 5th place finish in the Midwest. Highlights of the season were a first place showing in the Irwin Tourney, a third place in the Elk Horn Tournament, regular season wins over Denison and Perry, and a first round District win over Winterset. Three Wheelers received post-sea- son awards. Tracy Knueven led the team in hitting (.365) and pitching (6 wins). Among Tracy’s honors were First Team All-Conference, Honorable Mention All-State, and most notably, a First Team All SW Iowa spot on the Iowa High School Baseball Coaches’ Association All- Star Squad. Bill Schmidt, Audubon’s only senior, received 2nd team All- Conference as did Steve Hupp, who achieved the honor for the second straight year while leading the Wheelers in basehits 24. The outlook for next year is very promising as Audubon loses only Bill Schmidt from this year’s team. The Wheelers will return 10 letterman, including Clint Schmidt, who will be after his 5th varsity letter. “Hope- fully, the best is yet to come for Audubon Baseball.” 1.

They won eleven matches losing only seven. This was a big improve- ment over last year’s nine wins and twelve losses. The team also participated in the Atlantic Tournament and the Conference Tournament. At Atlantic they were defeated by Atlantic, split a match with Creston, and pulled through defeating St. Albert. They placed fourth at the Conference tournament. Highlighting the season were wins over Manning and Manilla. Members of the team receiving special conference honors were Lori Swanson and Renee Nielsen. Lori was voted unanimous first team all conference setter. Selected to sec- ond team all conference was Renee Nielsen. Angie Christensen and Donita Ditto received all conference Honorable mention. 1.

Although the scoreboard read in their favor only once, the junior-dominated-team made great strides towards a successful 1984 team. The season started with high hopes of going to the playoffs, but hopes of going to state disappeared after the first three games. Although they were playing in a losing sea- son, the Wheelers spirit never disap- peared from the “dirty thirty,” which was a nickname given to the Wheelers by Coach K. Having 31 letter-winners shows that everyone saw plenty of action. Audubon’s leading rusher was Alan Klein with 345 yards, followed by Jim Shima with 279 yards rushing. The Wheelers had 6 players awarded All-Conference Honors: Alan Klein — 2nd team Running back, Jim Hansen—2nd team line backer, Ethan Muzney — Honorable Mention Offensive End, Darrin Biggs—Honorable Mention Defensive tackle, Jim Shima — Honorable Mention Linebacker, and Bruce Kendle—Honorable Mention Punter. The Wheelers ended their season on a winning note by defeating Glen wood in their final game 12-6. Audubon opened the scoring in the first quarter followed by a Glenwood score in the next possession of the ball. Audubon closed out the scoring just before the first half. The second half was a hardfought half and neither team scored. In the final minutes, the defense stopped a Ram scoring drive to preserve the win. The Wheelers are to be com- mended for their desire and drive which led to a season-ending victory. 18 Football These pages sponsored by Disappointing Season . . . 1.

Coach Tryon replied, “The defense was great.” One of the biggest problems the team faced was a large number of injuries throughout the season. Not only did this keep regular J.V. players out, but many were promoted to varsity to fill in at the skilled positions. Coach Tryon commented on the good utility play of Joel Elmquist on defense and the hard work put in by the rest of the team. 20 Football This page sponsored by Cozine Auto Supply. On a Winning Note The Freshman football team showed much promising talent, despite their record of 0-5. Three of the games were lost by less than one touchdown, and a break late in each game could have brought victo- ries. “There is much potential on the team, and we can expect good things from them in the future,” said Coach Tom-Rasmussen. The sixteen frosh showed signs of excellent play, but lacked the consis- tency to win. With maturity and hard work, the frosh can gain victo- ries in the coming season.

This year’s co-captains were Kyle Karstens and Kari Hinners. They led the team to a good season. The best results in a meet were at conference where Dan Hostager placed first, Jeff Stearns fifth, Kyle Karstens tenth, Stephanie Muzney fourth, and Kari Hinners seventh. The boy’s team placed second, missing first by one point. With three seniors graduating from the team, Kari Hinners, Kyle Karstens, and Darrin Asmus, the team members will be recruiting new runners for next year’s coed cross- country team. This page sponsored by Marv’s Super Market. Dan Hostager is the first individual cross-country runner to qualify for state in AHS history. Dan never placed below third in a meet this year. His first-place med- als were won at the Panora Invitational, Woodbine Invitational, Midwest Conference, Denison Invitational, Missouri Valley Invitational, and at Districts. His first place finish at Districts qualified Dan for the state meet. The team accompanied Dan to the meet in Ames where he placed 16th in the Class 2A run. 1.

The Carebears were stuffed animals with symbols on their tummies. Some of the symbols were sayings such as: sunshine bear, cheer bear, bedtime bear, and friendship bear. These bears became a hit in 1983. The O.E. girls hired a disc jock- ey—light showman from the Red Tag Entertainment. The lightshow consisted of black and colored lights, fog machine, and sirens. The dance was a memorable conclusion to Homecoming ’83. 26 Homecoming This page sponsored by Sam’s Barber Shop. Re-invades Audubon The 1983 Homecoming Spirit Week was really a big success. Mon- day was no sweat day, and many spirited students spent the day in their sweat suits. Tuesday was Hair Day, and students restyled their hair just for the day. On Wednesday, many people dressed for the style which was Punk Day. Thursday was Hillbilly day; it appeared as though we had students straight from Dogpatch. Thursday night was the pep rally where the cheerleaders fired up the fans with their energetic cheers. Most of the classes performed a skit, and the Juniors wired an- nounced the winners. Their skit fea- tured a TV broadcast. The Queen coronation highlighted the pep rally. On Friday the most spirit was shown when almost everyone, led by the red and white faces of the foot- ball team and coaches, participated in Red and White Day. Winners of Spirit Week an- nounced at the Pep Rally were Gary Jensen, Wendy Layland and Denise Rudolph. This page sponsored by Hansen Insurance. Homecoming 27 Class of ’84 Dominates 1.

Float Competition The 1983 Homecoming Parade was a big success. The Wheeler Marching Band led the parade fol- lowed by several floats, and the queen and her court. The seniors won the float competition giving the freshman second place, and sophomores third. Other floats include the junior class float, drama club float, FFA float, and pickups sponsoring football and volleyball players. For the first time since 1973, a class dominated the homecoming float contest all four years. The class of 1984 began this task their freshman year with the float, “Wheel Deliver a Victory.” It was adorned with a large stork. The fol- lowing year the victorious float was a car filled with students. It read, “Wheel Stuff the Eagles.” With amazing luck their junior float won although it didn’t participate in the parade. Its theme was “Wheel Combine Our Efforts and Harvest a Victory.” The highlight of the float was the stubborn combine which would not start. Their senior effort topped them all as they built a self- contained papermache float. It was Winnie the Pooh catching the eye of the audience and waving to them. Congratulations to the class of ’84 for their continued efforts in produc- ing quality floats for the Homecoming parades. This page sponsored by Leo and Donna Kessler.

Rather than having a musical, the sponsors decided to put on a variety show. The show was greeted with great enthusiasm from elementary stu- dents to adults.

Many people contributed much ef- fort as well as time to the show, but the general opinion was that it was more than worth the personal sacri- fice. The show was also good in that more people had a chance to show their original talents. Congratulations to the cast of “Fifth Avenue Follies.” 30 Variety Show This page sponsored by Dr. H.T.

Variety Show 31 WINTER 32 Division Page The Year the Grinch Stole Harvest Ball was cancelled this year due to a lack of a sponsor. So, the Art Club decided to sponsor a Christmas Ball instead. The dance was scheduled for December 10th, but because of bad weather it was postponed till the 17th of Decem- ber. A new attraction was added to the dance this year. It was the elec- tion of a King, Queen, Prince, and Princess. The King and Queen were juniors and seniors, elected by juniors and seniors. The Prince and Princess were freshmen and sophomores elected by freshmen and sophomores. The candidates for King were Clint Hansen, Clint Schmidt, Troy Bruun, and Jim Shima. The Queen candidates were Kim Zaiger, Lori Fenton, Carol Petersen, and Molly Parris. Prince candidates were Kim Olson, Robbie Johansen, Tim Hart, and Danny Budd. The Princess candidates were 34 Christmas Ball Kellie Jorgensen, Sue Gleason, Natalie Moreland, and Sonia Ehlert. The royalty was crowned by Mr. and Mrs. Santa Claus. Kim Zaiger and Troy Bruun were crowned Queen and King. The Prince was Robbie Johansen, and Kellie Jorgensen was the Princess. Entertainment was a D.J. from KKRL in Carroll. The dance was called Christmas Magic with “Tender Is the Night” as a sub- theme. The cafeteria was trans- formed into a center of ‘Christmas Magic’ with a ceiling of green and red streamers, Christmas trees, mis- tletoe, a huge evergreen wreath, and a mural of the pictures of the candidates. The decorations were all hand-made by the Art Club members under the sponsorship of Mrs. Kathy Burns. Overall, the dance had a real good turnout, and despite weather problems, the dance was not cancelled. These pages sponsored by Christmas Bali... Almost. 1.

The other three were ranked third in their weight classes Jim Shima at 112, Jim Hansen at 145, and Clint Schmidt at 138. The 1983-84 wrestling team had an outstanding season. They won eight out of nine dual meets and placed first at five out of eight tour- naments. The team consisted of 35 individual wrestlers. Each individual sets high goals for himself, and the underclassmen pushed themselves to make it a successful season. The three seniors on the team showed leadership and experience. Individual and team goals are an important part of wrestling. Each individual must set his own goals for the season. The coach helps the team set their goals. Some of this year’s goals were to remain undefeated, win all tournaments, place high in the state tournament, and have a couple of state champi- ons. This year’s wrestling team was highly successful. The team won both conference and sectional tour- naments. They placed second at dis- tricts behind Griswold, the state champion, and their only dual loss of the season was to the same team. Seven wrestlers made it to dis- tricts after finishing first or second at sectionals. Jim Hansen, Kevin Karns, Joel Elmquist, Clint Schmidt, Monty Andreasen, Jim Shima, and Thad Hoffman helped lead the team to a sectional tournament victory and advanced as individuals to dis- tricts. Four of the team's wrestlers made it to State Tournament — Clint Schmidt, Monty Andreasen, Jim Shima, and Thad Hoffman. Jim Shima and Thad Hoffman were de- feated in the first round, and Monty Andreasen was eliminated in the second round. Clint Schmidt won his first two matches advancing into the semi-final round where he was de- feated, but after wrestlebacks, he placed fourth in the state. The 1983-84 wrestling season was a highlight in Itself. The team’s achievements were outstanding, pleasing both the team and faithful Audubon wrestling fans. 36 Wrestling This page sponsored by Southwest Iowa Real Estate Co. the Opposition 1. The varsity team won the sectional championship trophy. The 1983-84 junior varsity wres- tling squad deserves a great deal of recognition for their successful sea- son. The team remained undefeated through nine dual meets and placed first in three tournaments. Coach Kristensen commented, “The squad should have people to fill the gaps left by the three seniors. Coach K inducted into Iowa High School Wrestling Coach’s Hall of Fame Coach Don Kristensen was induct- ed into the Iowa High School Wres- tling Hall of Fame on Saturday, February 25, at approximately 6:45 P.M., just prior to the start of the championship matches. The ceremo- ny was televised on all the public T.V. stations in the state. The offi- cial program said that Coach K has the type of program of which the State of Iowa boasts. Coach K got his degree in 1950 at Iowa State Teachers College, and he immediately started his coaching career at Audubon. In his 13 years as head coach he has had 103-14 dual meet record, a pair of state champion individuals, a U.S. record holder for the fastest pin, an All- American, and he initiated the Audubon Invitational, the first mat invitational west of Des Moines. With pride, the students, wres- tlers, fans, and community saluted Coach K for this well-deserved award. Picture identification for pages 38-39: 1.

Wrestling 37 38 Wrestling Basketball Girls Speed Up The Wheelerettes had a 9-10 sea- son record. They had a conference record of 7-3 giving them a third place in the conference race. The team went through some changes to improve their game. Kristie Wahlert, a 3-year forward, changed to the guard court. It seemed to be a change for the best as she led the team with 5.7 rebounds per game. Maridee Gust averaged 4.3 and Donita Ditto 4.1 per game. Balanced scoring led the Wheelerettes as Sunberg averaged 26 per game; Swanson 18 per game, and Hupp averaged 13. The 1983-84 varsity girls basket- ball team had four all-conference team members and two All-State Honorable Mention players. Donita Ditto and Tereasa Sunberg both were named first team all-confer- ence. Second team all-conference honors went to Maridee Gust and honorable mention to Kristie Wahlert. Tereasa Sunberg was named Honorable Mention on the Dea Moines Register and Tribune and IDPA All-State Honor- able Mention list. Nine team members were letter winners with Kristie Wahlert being the only mem- ber to receive her third letter. 40 Girl's Basketball This page sponsored by Lynn A. Wahlert. the Action on the Court 1.

Even though the team had many freshmen playing, they played the junior varsity schedule, playing against many sophomores and juniors. Coach Knutson said, “Though we were basically inexperienced, playing in this level of competition helped us improve our level of play.” One advantage of the small numbers is that each of the girls re- ceived much valuable playing time. This time will prepare the team for playing varsity ball in the future. 1. The members of the girls J.V. Basket ball team include: (Front row) Karin Buser, Judi Jorgensen. Nancy Lange.

Through The 1983-84 boys basketball team had a rebuilding season. The team only had one senior. It was up to the underclassmen to fill the shoes of former experienced players. One of the team’s strong points was free-throws. They placed first in the conference in this statistic. Three starters led them by averag- ing over 70% for the season. Steve Jacobsen was the only ju- nior selected for first team All- Conference. Steve led the conference in field goal percentage, was second in rebounding averaging 9.8 per game, and placed fifth in conference scoring at a 14.6 clip. “With a good group of juniors re- turning next year and possibly the best freshman squad we’ve had joining them, I feel boys’ basketball here at Audubon will be very good in the years to come,’ remarked Coach Henkenius.

The FFA members nomi- nated all senior girls that work and live on the farm. From this list, they voted to select their FFA Sweetheart. President Rick Spies crowned Kari Hinners as their queen. The Twirp dance was one of the best-attended dances of the year. The late winter blues were tempo- rarily forgotten as the students got “wild and crazy” at the dance. The FFA once again showed their inge- nuity and money-saving attitude by decorating the cafeteria with toilet paper. 48 FFA Twirp Dance This page sponsored by Audubon Dairy Queen. 1.

The girls won six of their nine meets and placed second in the rain-delayed conference meet, only five points behind Jefferson. Numbers proved to be a valuable addition to this year’s squad. With 25 girls out for track (only three of them seniors), the team was contin- ually able to wear down their oppo- nents by having refreshed runners in race after race. The 4 x 100 relay qualified for the Drake Relays. However, cold weather and strong winds proved too much for the girls at districts as no one qualified for the state meet. Twenty letterwinners return for next season as Audubon continues to grow into one of SW Iowa’s powerhouse teams. 54 Girls' Track These pages sponsored by Meets and Set 4 Records I 1.

The runners were only able to run in seven meets this season due to the adverse weather conditions. Highlighting the season was the running of Dan Hostager. Dan brought home the state 3-A champ- ionship in the 3200 meter run. In the race, Dan led in laps 3 through 7 when Tom Pennington of Tipton, last year’s champion, passed him go- ing into the final lap. “With about 400 yards left, Dan shot by him and won by a couple yards,’’ reported Coach Bob Monahan. After the race Dan said, “1 usually don’t have a kick, I don’t know where it came from today. I just wanted to stay close and run a good race.” Dan’s time of 9:27.26 was not only a school record but also the fastest of any of the classes at the state meet. Dan also set a school record in the 1600 meter run of 4:40.04 and placed 7th in the 3200 meter invitational run at the Drake Relays. Although there were only two school records, many runners im- proved their personal bests.

After a slow start (1-4) the young netters came back to win four in a row over Corning, Stuart Menlo (twice), and Anita. At the district meet, Brenton Young in singles play and the doubles team of Ramon Milla and Tim Hart advanced to the second round before being eliminated.

They were the Guthrie Center Tourney champions and finished sec- ond in the Midwest Conference Meet, only four strokes behind Denison. Lesley Boysen was the medalist at the conference meet shooting an 88. The girls placed second behind Denison at the sec- tional meet enabling them to advance to district play. At Districts, they finished third. Lesley Boysen was named to the All-conference first team; Linda Nickum was named to second team all-conference honors. The junior varsity team posted a 4-1 dual record, and they placed second at the Manning Tournament. Angie Slothouber was named the Most Improved Golfer, and Beth Kneeskern won the Best Newcomer Award. There were six letterwinners this season.

It was a young Wheeler golf team that hit the course this spring as there were no seniors, only one re- turning letterman, and three fresh- men playing on the varsity. How- ever, the team did succeed in improving their dual record to a 3-4 mark. The junior varsity golfers fin- ished with a 2-5 record. More im- portantly, the young Wheelers won the Panora-Linden Invitational; this marks the first tournament win in four years. The Wheelers were led by team captain Dan Wagner who was a sec- ond-team all-conference selection. Audubon placed third in the confer- ence meet paced by Dan Wagner earning runner-up honors and Mark Olenius placing fourth. Mark Olenius led the golfers at the sectional meet in which he tied for medalist runner- up honors. However, he lost his chance to advance to districts in a four-hole play-off. Other end-of-the-year awards pre- sented were to the Best Newcomer —Mark Olenius, Most Consistent — Scott Goodrich, and Most Improved Player — David Elmquist. With all of the golfers returning for next season, lower scores and more honors are headed this way for Audubon’s golf team.

Band 67 Spring Play ‘Mellows’ Out “Dirty Work at the Crossroads” was the spring play performed on April 26 27 by the AHS drama department. The play was an 1890’s melodrama featuring the das- tardly villain, and his accomplice, the brave hero, and the poor heroine. During the performance, the audience was given the chance to boo and hiss the villain and cheer the hero. The play told of Munro Murgatroyd's attempts to woo and win a wealthy young lady so he can live a lazy life of leisure. In each attempt his plans were foiled by the honest citizens of the Crossroads. The final confrontation of good and evil took place at the railroad cross- ing where the villain met his fate while the honest Adam and Mookie were saved. The spring play involved many hours of rehearsal and set crew work. The cast members donated their Easter vacation time to put the finishing touches on the play. Their extra time and devotion helped them to prepare for the unexpected happenings that always seem to oc- cur during performances. “Dirty Works” was a fun show for the cast and the audience, and during the evening performance members of the audience were giv- en a chance to throw marshmallows at the vile villain. 68 Spring Play This page sponsored by Petersen-Evans Agency. with “Dirty Works” I.

Spring Play 69 Prom ’84: Miracles Balloons and colorful streamers set the festive mood for the Junior- Senior Prom Banquet. The dining room was decorated with pastel- colored streamers and balloon centerpieces on the tables. These decorations filled the atmosphere with an air of “miracles.” The fes- tivities of Prom began on April 7, at 7:00 in the evening. Troy Bruun welcomed the guests and introduced the soloists. “On the Wings of Love” was the first solo sung by Charles Heiner. DeEtte Ridgeway followed with her solo “Miracles,” the theme for the evening. The invocation was delivered by Rev. Hostager, and the dinner was served by freshman servers. The meal was enjoyed by all. Closing remarks made by Clint Hansen wrapped up the banquet. “Scanner” provided entertainment for the dance starting at 9:00. The ballroom was decorated in dark blue and silver. The main attraction in the center of the room was a gaze- bo. Other decorations included mu- rals and posters on the walls.

Students are care- fully selected, and this is one of the highest honors an AHS student can receive. Leadership, character, knowledge, scholarship, and service are some of the traits of the students in NHS. These students must maintain a B average. One of the highlights of becoming a National Honor Society member is the ceremony in which new members are announced. The current members humorously “tap in” the new members before the student body. In the fall, they have an all-school assembly, and in the spring, this is done at Honors Night. Norma’s Western Wear and TCI. National Honor Society 77 Artists Create 1.

The 1983-84 officers were: President—Molly Parris, vice- president—Tereasa Sunberg, Secre- tary-Treasurer— Sheri Hupp, and Historian—Patti Irlmeier. Many of the Art Club’s activities were sponsoring the Christmas Ball, making posters for the Lion’s Club Variety show, and putting on the art show during the festival of choruses. The art show displays work done by the students during the year. Once again the members put to- gether and sold calendars with the faculty, administration, and student’s names of their birthdates. The art students drew the pictures for the art calendar. The calendars sold for three dollars with twenty-five cents extra for any special date added. Every other year, the club takes a trip. This year the club went to Omaha to tour the art museum, visit the Old Market area, and attend “No Time for Sergeants” at the Firehouse Theatre. The members are required to sell fifteen calendars in order to attend the trip. Each person that sold fifteen received three dollars, for each calendar sold, toward their trip.

O.E. class is a two-semester class which provides instruction for secre- tarial work and other office-related work. The members have office jobs in community businesses. Because of time needed for on the job training, 0. E. girls carefully select their electives so they will not conflict with their jobs. This year the O.E. club sold a variety of things to raise money. They sold calendars, candles, candy, popcorn, and candy bars. These funds were used for homecoming ex- penses and sending members to con- vention. All twenty O.E. girls trained in specialty areas for the State Con- vention that was held in Des Moines, March 26-28. As a result of excellent standings at State Conven- tion Lisa Nicholl, Lori Fenton, and Renee Neilsen went on to the Na- tional O.E. Convention. Other fine accomplishments at state convention were Tina Murray, fourth in tran- scribing, and Bonnie Christensen, sixth in general clerical. National O.E. Convention was held in Indianapolis on April 28-May 1. Renee placed fifth in speech. Lisa's specialty was accounting in which she placed seventh. Lori Fenton placed tenth in filing.

Members are encouraged to have projects and keep accurate records of their work. The FFA members plan all of their activities, contests, and trips. This past year they sponsored the FFA sweetheart dance, a father-son trap shoot, helped with the T-Bone Parade and Flight Breakfast, and donated money for the new town welcome sign. The FFA members always seem to be on the go. Members attended the District Livestock Judging Contest, both Beef and Swine Field Days at Iowa State, District Leader- ship Camp at Springbrook, District Soil Judging Contest, and livestock judging contests in five other towns. Twelve members attended the State Leadership Coinference in Des Moines. Kurt Handlos was a mem- ber of the State Chorus, and six members advanced profiency projects to the state level. The chapter had six entries receive gold awards at the sub-dis- trict speaking contest and advance to the district level. All of the entries received silver awards at dis- tricts except Dale Klocke. Dale was awarded a gold medal in extempora- neous speaking and advanced to the state contest. He was awarded a sil- ver medal in state competition. Six members attended the Nation- al Convention in Kansas City where the chapter was given a Superior rating. The members work hard at fund- raising to finance their projects. They grossed over $7500 in fruit sales this year. Other money-makers included tool and bolt sales. 82 FFA This page sponsored by Feeder’s Supply. REMAINS ACTIVE 1.

Drama Club is a support organiza- tion behind the three major produc- tions and contests that the drama department participates in each year. This department usually spon- sors a fall musical or variety show, a winter contest show, and a spring play. By earning money through the sales of Patron Tickets in the fall, the drama club can pay expenses more easily. Not only does the drama depart- ment produce three major produc- tions a year, but also they provide individual and large group entertainment for various clubs, meetings, and other community functions. Throughout the year, stu- dents keep track of the many activities they participate in. By do- ing this, points are awarded to each student. At the end of the year, letters are awarded to those who have accumulated a certain number of points. Several activities that drama club is involved in and awards points for begin before school starts, and con- tinues after the year ends. In the fall, the sale of Patron Tickets is a major fund-raiser. Homecoming and T-Bone floats are also fall projects, individual and large group speech contests occupy much of the stu- dents’ time during the winter season and into spring. Offstage work as well as rehearsals also take much hard work and dedication. This year’s officers are: President Dan Chambers, Vice-president Corinne Young, Secretary Lori Mace, Treasurer Michelle Nissen,. and Historian Mike Broich. 94 Drama Club This page sponsored by Lee's TV Service. “Play” to Spirited Crowds Thespian Troupe 2319 is an hon- orary organization for students who have made an outstanding contribu- tion to the theatre. Students are chosen by their peers already in the troupe. After they are inducted, a formal initiation is held. This year’s formal initiation ceremony was held at the IPS Building in the fall and a trip to Omaha in June included an informal initiation. The '83-’84 Thespian Troupe was the first to sponsor a Thespian reunion, which was held during Christmas vacation. All former thes- pians and sponsors from 1973 until the present were invited. Last summer, the troupe attended “Godspell” at the Omaha Firehouse Dinner Theatre. Once again, this summer started with an all-day trip to Peony Park and a show in Oma- ha. The Thespian Troupe also pro- vided the Country Players Communi- ty Theatre with one or two repre- sentatives. The 1983-84 reps were Karla Jensen and Corinne Young.

Kim Malmberg, Annette McCuen, and Mike Broich. Not pictured are Karen Ramsell and Clint Hansen. U anDjgf. knrnutunul feouraip Sonro to Stool mnuUste A school newspaper is important. If used correctly, it can be a valu- able public relations device for the school that it represents. The AHS RED WHITE is just that. Whenever an edition of the RED WHITE is published, it first “paints a picture of our community, explained journalism advisor Carol Hansen. “The school newspaper should be done well because it goes all over the country. We send out exchange pa- pers (copies of our school newspaper in exchange for theirs) which makes an impression of our school on oth- ers.” The 1983-’84 staff is small, yet continues to do an excellent job. The first semester staff included edi- tor Kim Malmberg, reporters Annette McCuen and Karen Ramsell, and part-time photographer and artist Clint Hansen. Second se- mester added reporter Karla Jensen and photographer Mike Broich. “A small staff is much easier to organize, yet should still be able to publish as often as a large staff. They should also take more pride per edition since they each put more work into it,” Commented Mrs. Hansen. Reporter Annette McCuen stated, “The worst thing about being on a small staff is the tension. Some- times, 1 feel like I’m being overworked. The best thing is seeing your stories in the paper. I look back and think of all the work that went into making it.” “Meeting deadlines and making time for interviews is the hardest thing to do,” Expressed editor Kim Malmberg. ‘‘It’s a dirty job but somebody’s got to do it,” joked Clint Hansen. Journalism class isn’t just writing stories. The staff learns how to in- terview, type, write cutlines and headlines, proof and copy edit, plus some photography and graphic de- sign. Being a part of journalism class is very unique. “You don’t have home- work every night like other classes. It’s an around-the-clock-type job. You’re always trying to think up sto- ry ideas,” commented Annette McCuen. Karla Jensen added, “It gives you a chance to use some creativity more often.” When someone signs up for this class, there are a few requirements to review. A RED WHITE report- er must have curiosity, which is the main ingredient in a good reporter. He or she must also have common sense, a good sense of the English language, and a sense of humor of- ten helps. Journalism is a lab class based on cooperation and team work. The class makes its own decisions. Therefore, the school newspaper re- flects the personality of its staff and shows the lifestyle of the school. 96 Red and White This page sponsored by Dr. Van Dusen and Dr. Fischer. Rush to Meet Deadlines This year’s staff is a group of hard-working students. The pressure is on for them to turn out a good book. They have many tasks to accomplish and deadlines to meet. The staff was divided into three groups at the beginning of the year. Some of the members worked in the darkroom, while others worked on layouts, and some wrote stories. The darkroom people are respon- sible for developing and printing the pictures for the yearbook. Pictures are taken by staff members and then negatives are developed. Contact sheets are made, and printed for the yearbook. Layouts are what make the book. It is up to the people responsible for layouts to design and complete This page sponsored by them. This requires much work. A rough copy is made of each layout and pictures are cropped in and stories and indents placed. Pictures need to be stamped. Stories and indents have to be typed, proofed, and typed again on copy sheets. When the layout is complete, it is copied onto a tri-copy. These are only the major tasks. There are many other finishing touches put on the layouts. The stories in the yearbook can take you back to some pleasant memories. Some of the stories require research and interviews. The staff members who write the stories hope to provide an enjoyable source of memories. The eleven staff members hope that you will have a book that you enjoy. 1 Developing film and printing pictures kept Dan Chambers. Anthony Lopez, and Alan Klein always in the dark-room. 2.

Y-TEENS TOUR OMAHA The Y-Teens is a service organiza- tion consisting of 37 members. They are led by Co-presidents, Karla Jensen and Karen Madsen. Other Officers are Secretary Sharon Garber, Treasurers Angie Porsch and Lisa Nicholl, and Co-activity Di- rectors, Carol Petersen and DeEtte Ridgeway. One of the services of the Y- Teens is playing bingo each month with the residents of the Friendship Home. They also served breakfast at the AHS invitational wrestling tournament. The Y-Teens went Christmas caroling for the elderly people of Audubon. The group’s money-making projects included working conces- sions at ball games. They sold craft kits and flowers for Valentine’s Day. The money earned helped to defer expenses for their spring excursion. Twenty-three Y-Teens went to Omaha during Easter vacation for two days of shopping, a production of “Annie, and swimming at the Ramada. Mrs. Peppers said, “They were a good group of girls, and a fun time was had by all.” Pictured are the Y Teen members who toured Omaha during Easter vacation. 98 Y-Teens Promote Good Will 1.

Pictured at the Outdoor Lab are Jim Shima, Wes Owen, Steven Williamson, and Troy Bruun Hi-Y Is a high school organization that is affiliated with the YMCA. It Is a service-oriented group so that high school boys have the opportuni- ty to be involved in “good will” projects for the school and commu- nity. The Hi-Y group had two main projects. They donated $200 to the high school weight room for additional equipment. The AHS Outdoor Lab is an on-going project. This year they distributed plans for birdhouses to their members and built birdhouses to be placed in the Outdoor Lab. Most of the money earned by the group comes from working concessions. Hi-Y officers for this year are President — Clint Hansen, Vice- President—Jim Shima, Secretary— Matt Buser, and Treasurer—Tim Feltner. This page sponsored by A G Farm Service. Ht-Y 99 Cheerleaders Earn Top This years Varsity Cheerleaders went to a week-long camp at UNI. They won many awards at the camp. These were for: Cheerleading skills Creativity 110% Performance Outstanding Improvement Excellence These awards were followed by being one of the top 5 squads out of 40 squads. This was quite an honor for the squad, and the school body was very proud of the cheer- leaders efforts. Trying out for cheerleading is a very important beginning for cheerleading. The practices start the first of March, and the tryouts were the 21st of March. These tryouts are judged by the administrators, some teachers, Mrs. Edelman, the jr. high cheerleading advisor, coaches, members of the student senate, former senior cheerleaders, and players. The cheerleaders trying out are separated into different sec- tions such as Varsity wrestling and Varsity basketball, junior varsity basketball and junior varsity wres- tling, Volleyball cheerleaders and freshmen. After selection, the squads work together to develop routines and precision to guide the school spirit at AHS. The new addition to Wheeler spir- it is the now famous “Wheelie”. Wheelie is the new mascot of the Audubon school. This mascot works in cooperation with the cheerleading squad. We hope this will help improve future school spirit. 100 Cheerleader� This page sponsored by Kearney’s Pharmacy. Honors at Summer Camp 1. Lesley Boysen, DeEtte Ridgeway, Polly Dale.

A comrade blithe and full of glee Who dares to laugh out loud and free, And let his frolic fancy play Like a happy child, through the flowers gay That fill the field and fringe the way Where he walks a mile with me. And who will walk a mile with me Along life’s weary way? A friend whose heart has eyes to see The stars shine out o’er the darkening lea, And the quiet rest at the end of the day, A friend who knows and dares to say The brave, sweet words that cheer the way Where he walks a mile with me. With such a comrade, such a friend, I fain would walk till journey’s end Through summer sunshine, winter rain, And then—farewell, we shall meet again! Henry van Dyke Jeffrey Scott Stearns Jeffrey Scott Stearns, the son of Gary and Janice McCool Stearns, was born on December 21, 1966, and died at his home southeast of Audubon, Iowa, at the age of 17 years, 2 months, and 3 days. He was baptized at the First Pres- byterian Church in Audubon. He started school at Viola School, after one year became a student of the Audubon Schools, and was a mem- ber of the Junior Class at Audubon High School. He participated as a member of the track team and the cross-country team at school. Preceding him in death was an in- fant brother, Gary Allen Stearns. Survivors include his parents and one brother, Craig Stearns, all of Audubon; his grandparents, Russell and Lowene Stearns, of Audubon; and a number of other relatives and friends. 104 In Memory Friendly Faces at AHS Some of the best times at AHS are just be- ing with your friends. 1.

Student Life 105 Administration Sets Tone The 1983-84 schoolboard consists of six members, they include C.J. Niles, Leonard Baumhover, Stephen May, Robert Hansen, Dave Hansen and Allan Jacobsen. Since the publi- cation of “Nation at Risk,” a nation- al education report, the schoolboard has an even tougher job to try and keep up with their standards. They want more required subjects to improve the nation’s education. Our members have set goals in academic and public relations. They are trying to accomplish these goals to make the Audubon High School meet the nation’s standards. The school board is trying to make the future better for the Audubon High School stu- dent body. To the Class of 1984: Although necessary, it is always difficult to say goodbye to the senior class each year. The Class of 1984, like their predecessors, have made many contributions to Audubon High, not only scholastically, but in the areas of music, athletics, art, speech, drama, and journalism. This class can be most proud of the hon- ors they have helped bring to our school. The Class of 1984 will be missed, but we wish you much success in the years to come. R. P. Paulsen 1 Members of the 1984 School Board are President C.J. Niles. Secretary Allan Jacobsen. David B. Hansen. Stephen May; (Standing) Leonard Baumhover. Vice-Presi- dent Robert D. Hansen 2.

For the School Year To the Seniors: One of the great mysteries of life centers around an adult’s concept of happiness. I believe success or failure depends upon many things including attitude toward others and yourself. Are you a negative per- son? Are you a flexible person? What kind of character do you have? The spirit which you find yourself totally controls the way you act towards others and yourself. The choice is yours. The rewards, the disappointments, the way you ap- 1 W proach life, revolve around attitude. Above all else, set one priority and that is to be honest with yourself. J. R. Hoffman Mr. Hoffman has 25 years of teaching and administration experience. He has been with the Audubon School District for 17 years: eleven years as elementary principal, 1 year as athletic director, and the past 5 years as high school principal. This is Mr. Hoffman’s last year at Audubon as he has accept- ed the position of Superintendent and Elementary Principal at Nishna Valley Community Schools. He will be greatly missed by the Audubon community; we wish him well in his future endeavors. Mr. Kiger took over as Activity Director after Mr. Carter left the Audubon School System.

Performs Essential Tasks The support staff at Audubon High school keeps things moving smoothly, this job is not as easy as it sounds. The secretaries, custodians, cooks, and bus drivers have their work cut out for them. The secretaries at Audubon High have a variety of tasks that keeps them busy. They perform all the clerical duties as required by super- intendent and principals. The secre- taries also serve the faculty and student body by giving messages and selling lunch tickets. A special thanks goes to the secretaries for all of their duties, and running their offices with efficiency. The custodians get very little rec- ognition for all of their hard work. They put in many hours washing towels, cleaning up the gym, classrooms, locker rooms, and setting up the tables and chairs in the cafeteria. One comment often received is that our school looks al- most brand-new. The clean and shine comes from the hard work of our four custodians. The cooks have a big responsibil- ity to serve all of the students and the faculty. They plan and prepare well-balanced meals, as well as cleaning and washing the dishes. They are appreciated for their efforts to serve almost 400 people daily. Bus drivers are a special kind of people. They have a great deal of patience, not to mention other special qualities. Bus drivers must deal with late kids, back seat brawls, bad weather and safely deliver 45 enthusiastic students to and from school. Secretaries In the Central Office are 1. Lois Kauffman and 2. Sylvia Christensen. 3. Moni- ca Petersen is the school district's financial coordinator. 4. Joyce Groteluschen is the guidance secretary This page sponsored by Ben Franklin.

The teachers are covering a broad range of subjects from computers to shop classes, from cooking to writing, from chemistry to chorus. There is a better student-teacher ratio because of declined enrollment. The faculty staff tries to better their teaching skills by going to workshops and summer classes. They are required by the State De- partment of Public Instruction to fulfill 6 hours of schooling every 10 years. Most of the faculty earn more than required. With the big push for excellence in education, the faculty continues to further their skills to provide the best for students at AHS. 1.

However, they must be congratulated for raising half of the amount in the final two days. Shanell Moreland, Pat Thobe, and Patti Irlmeier were top salespeople who received a choice of nice prize, a ghetto blaster, a digital clock-ra- dio-telephone, and a telephone. Oth- er students won mugs, tapes, candy bars, and posters. The money raised goes for prom and graduation. Enthusiasm prevailed as the Juniors won the spirit stick several times throughout the year. Their homecoming skit featuring Ron Soil, Wendy Layland, Lori Mace, and Mi- chelle Nissen at television station “W.I.N. won first place. The Junior float, however, captured fourth place after its theme idea had been changed each of the three nights of preparation. Preparing for prom was a new experience for the Juniors. It was a big task that required a great deal of planning and work.
