Text from Pages 1 - 160 of the 1976 volume:

Volume Number 8 Editors Advisor Nancy Ellis Harlan Hoff Mary Zeilstra Katz 1976 Canton High School Canton, South Dakota This being the Bi-Centenial year, has brought to our attention the history of our land. It has caused our minds to see that our ancestors had made a difficult decision during their time. It is amazing the desires that were accompanied by fears, frustrations, disappointments, and tragic endings before they finally realized freedom from anothers' rule. The names and places are important but for us the only real important fact is that they did succeed. And, what we now have is the result of their beginning and additions by us. This success should be a lesson to us. For in our lives we have seen many things and met many people. Yet we are not here celebrating what we have done for ourselves but what we have done for others. We have experienced fears, frustrations, happiness, failures, successes, disappointments and now we have signed a declaration and as a result we have successfully made another step to freedom. So, as our forefathers did so do we now we are here taking a look at our lives and we want you to come with us as we are Backtrackin' through the year . Backtrackin' 6 Why God Gave Us Friends Dean Walley God knew that everybody needs Companionship and cheer, He knew that people need someone Whose thoughts are always near. He knew they needed someone kind To lend a helping hand Someone to gladly take the time To care and understand... That's why God gave us friends. He knew that we all need someone To share each happy day. To be a source of courage When troubles come our way. Someone to be true to us Whether near or far apart, Someone whose love we'll always hold And treasure in our hearts... That's why God gave us friends. SENIORS MOTTO: Never look down to test the ground before taking your next step; only he who keeps his eye fixed on the far horizon will find his right road. COLORS: Red, White, and Blue FLOWER: Red Rose President Judy Deinema 8 Vice-President Harvey Menholt Secretary-Treasurer Nancy Ellis James Aasheim Terry Anderson Glen Baldwin Douglas Bankson Kelly Ball Tena Beitzel The concession was the money making project for the senior class The stand was open at all football and basketball games, wrestling and track meets. The profits of the stand were used to finance new power tools for the industrial arts program and one hundred dol- lars to Margret Schmitz Fund. The hard work paid off when the class enjoyed steaks at the senior pic- nic on Tuesday, May 25, 1976. 9 Michael Block Kathy Beer The theme of this year's Homecoming Parade was 200 Years Ago. The senior float was Ring Victory Throughout- Hawk Country. It depicted a 1776 flag on a bed of white napkins with a large bell ringing as it was pulled along the parade route. For the hard worked efforts, the float was judged most beautiful. What's life but brief moments of joy Followed by partings of sadness? Remember where you've been and look to tomorrow; Today’s not the end. Deborah Christensen Kevin Beck Brenda Boyer Bruce Braaten Those who bring Sunshine to the Lives of others Cannot keep it From themselves.

Kevin McCann James Mitchell Marsha Muller Linda McKenney Nancy Montisano Vance Myrabo Lao-Tse 17 Craig Olson Dannon Olseth Adding entertainment to the senior assemb- bly are Brenda Jervik, and Lori Sievers doing their version of the editorial reply of the week. They discussed the school lunch program. L. Sievers argued the cons of launching school buildings into space. ...through editorial comments As usual, Jim Get- ting shows us his brilliant talents! David Olsen Marsha Oakland Deborah Putnam Mr. Roberts, are you telling another one of Lori Pick those jokes? We know pie are not square they are Stephanie Roti round and BED has to do with population control! Scott Stensland 19 Robert Sandnes ... is Living, Laughing, and Loving ! Martha Schmitz Leslie Sivertson Cheryl Schuttloffel Lori Sievers 20 There is a destiny that makes us brothers; None goes his way alone: All that we send into the lives of others Comes back into our own. Edwin Markham Part of the entertainment was a skit with Doug Rice and Sheryl Crawford. Act- ing as an old man Doug Rice, tries to get fresh with an old lady (S. Crawford), and she belts him over the head with her purse. She wonders why men always give up so easily! The Graduate All of the drudgery Is over at last- Homework and quizzes Are things of the past. But I've finally made it, Who will they get To play guard like I played Who'll sing first tenor In glee club next year? Who'll write variety shows Around here? Who will the paper's New editor be? How will this school Get along without me? An apple a day keeps the doctor away. Edward Cunningham Mona Van Hunnik Delbert Veldkamp Brian Wenig Judy White Terry Williams Brian Wiese For a Friend I don't believe I've ever thought to thank you, God, for this wonderful friend. But I do thank you for creating her and letting her enrich my life this way. Thank you for all the years we've known each other and the confidences and hopes and troubles that we've shared. Thank you for the understanding we bring to each other. For the patience we have with each other's faults; for the advice and even the scoldings we are able to give each other without either of us taking offense. Thank you for the help we have been to each other-in this way, and so many more. Thank you that because of her I am a better, happier person, and that she has grown as a person too because of me. Thank you that she would give me anything in her power-time, money, work, possessions, encouragement, sympathy-whatever my need. And that she knows I would be as quick to respond to whatever her needs might be. Thank you that we can laugh together, cry together, rejoice together. And although we may not see each other for a long time, when we do come together it is always the same. Lord, bless and keep her, this person you fashioned and filled with qualities that have meant so much to me. Lord, thank you for my friend. 23 -Marjorie Holmes As in past years, the senior class fol- lowed tradition set by the class of '74 by selecting faculty members and students to speak. The faculty members chosen are Mr. Harlan Hoff and Mrs. Renee Rebnord. Mr. Hoff spoke to the class about being alert to what’s happening and to keep their heads up and looking forward. Mrs. Rebnord spoke directly to the seniors, but allowed the audience to eavesdrop! This year's student speakers are two girls. Judy Deinema talked about pausing to celebrate our accomplish- ments. We are always growing, learning, and seeking in our lives and this can't stop after graduation. Nancy Ellis tied in the Bi-Centennial by showing how our forefathers did not give up after defeat. Our goals in life are our challenges. Life is an arrow- therefore you must know What mark to aim at, how to use the bow- Then draw it to the head, and let it go! Henry van Dyke . . . is to reflect SMILES I like it when you smile at me to let me know I'm O.K. with you, that this is right. You keep me warm by wrapping me in smiles. 25 26 A part of CHS that is mostly heard and not seen is the school board. Regardless, their importance cannot be underestimated. They keep the school running smoothly by making rules and regulations. They also make decisions concerning teacher's sal- aries and other financial matters, bussing, purchasing new equipment for the school, and the list of their duties continues on. These men of importance are, front row: Virgil Woltoff, William Slade, Arnold Lund, and Clerk Bernard Schneller; back row: Lee Everhart, Dick Hoffman, Principal Robert Tupper, Allan Ulrikson, Charles Kuehl, and Superintendant Earl Dean. An important part of the year was spent planning the new addition to CHS. Several meetings concerned bids for two-way radios for the busses which were partially paid for by the class of 1975. The school board approved the multi-district voca- tional school that was proposed during the year. The school failed because of a negative vote by the Beresford board. The board also agreed to expand the curriculum for next year by adding an Industrial Arts Program. Members of the board are shown here at work. They were caught while dis- cussing teacher's salaries for next year. The topic became a big issue during the last few months of school. 28 through • • • decisions Bernard Schneller is seen looking over the school records. He heads the business office, administers school finances, school bus routes, and as- sists other school administrators. Mr. Earl Dean, School administrator and superintendant, spends most of his time seeing that the decisions of the school board are carried out. He acts as a go-between for the school and the school board. If a problem arises, he can make suggestions to the board con- cerning a solution. All matters that cannot be handled by normal means go through him to the school board. Along with his responsibilities come many difficulties and headaches. Mr. Dean was assisted in his duties by Margret Schmitz who acted as his secretary. Youth thinks intelligence a good sub- stitute for experience, and his el- ders think experience a good sub- stitute for intelligence. 29 A. A. ) One of the many duties of the high school principal is giving daily announce- ments concerning such subjects as upcoming events, library fines, and results of re- cent activities. Robert Tupoer is com- pleting his final year as principal at CHS. He has served the position for 17 years. Next year he will head the indus- trial arts program, which will be new to the curriculum. B. ) Some people just can't keep their eyes on their work! Vivian Fossum, who acts as secretary in the principal's office has a lot of work to not keep her her eyes on. Although I can be me within myself- with my own thoughts, feelings, desires and dreams- that is not the whole me. The entire person is only complete in rela- tion to other people, because then every- thing that is truly me is finally given open expression. I need people because through them I become real. 30 C.) George Gross is seen working dille- gently at his desk and does not even have time to pose for a picture. He keeps very busy with his duties as vice-principal and teaches Algebra II, analysis, and Elements of Mathmatics. The EM class was completed by 11 seniors, who endured this experimen- tal class for six years. There is a rea- son why Mr. Gross has gotten a few gray hairs these last few years. ...so live—decently, fearlessly, joy- ously—and don't forget that in the long run it is not the years in your life but the life in your years that counts! i. . . . through leadership and guidance A. ) Frank Tjeerdsraa, CHS Guidance Counse- lor, is shown helping a senior plot his future. In addition, he instructs book- keeping and supervises detention hall, where he gets to know many of the seniors very well. Contrary to popular belief, seniors do get hours. B. ) Assisting Mr. Schneller in the busi- ness office are: Kay Schneller, seated; Beverly Brenner and Eleanor Jacobs, standing. Their main chores concern keeping records, selling lunch tickets, and monitering bus routes. C. ) It doesn't look like Mrs. Fossum wants her picture taken. She is seen attending to one of her many duties, answering the telephone, but she had better make the call short because by the looks of her desk, she has only begun her day's work. Happiness is... A.) Canton's English department is headed by Renee Rebnord, Gary Schultz, and Pam Wudel, who also holds the school record for the most bottles of pop drunk in one hour. The English department was re- vised to include a wider selection of courses this year. Mrs. Rebnord in- structs courses in Novel, Psychology, Creative Writ- ing, Mass Media, and Debate, while in her spare time she is girls basketball coach and assistant track coach. Mr. Schultz intro- auces fresnmen to the won- derful world of English I and also teaches a course in American Literature. His leisure time is spent di- recting student plays. Mrs. Wudel's time is filled with the instruction of English II, Advanced Compo- sition, and Short Story. She is also a declam coach. B. ) Burdell Coplan, Speech and Sociology teacher, convinces students to turn out for a sporting event at the pep assembly. He is head football coach, athletic director for CHS, and won't buy a pair of pants unless they have pockets. C. ) Don't you wish you could hear what the heads of the science department were discussing? Bob Herting and Harlan Hoff are Introduction to Physical Science instructors. Mr. Herting also advises the students in Biology and is B-team coach, and also as- sists in football and track. Mr. Hoff, in addition to IPS, advises Chemistry and Physics students as well as the Back- trackin' staff. D. ) Mrs. Wudel is seen conversing with one of her students. You can be sure whatever she is saying is amusing, but confusing. She obviously did not want her picture taken but evidently she did not make herself clear. E. ) CHS government classes were visited by a student teacher, Gary McCormick, this spring. A. . . . is getting in there and trying it! A.) With these two leaning on the water fountain, it is a won- der it is still intact. Laris Roberts instructs World Geo- graphy and four classes of U.S. Government, as well as coaching wrestling. Curtis Fredrikson teaches U.S. History and World History, while coaching fresh- man football and basketball and assisting with football, track, and basketball on the sideline. B. ) Grinning over their latest joke between study halls are Elwood Deitrich, German and Math 9 instructor and head basketball coach, and Nordell Ekle, Algebra I and Geometry teacher. C. ) Debra Debates, the Home Ec., Advanced Foods, and Marriage instructor and FHA advisor, assists a student with sewing, one of the many areas covered in Home Economics. D. ) Some people just refuse to let outside activities and noises bother them. They just relax and take advantage of whatever the sit- uation had to offer. It seems Mr. Roberts is one of these people. Too bad he forgot his pillow. Journeymen Rod McKuen Life goes slow without love. It moves along unhurried. The sun rises. The sun goes down. There are those who pass by changing the time-cycle if you're willing to wait. I am always shy with these journeymen at first and by the time I get to know them they've gone away. C. D. 33 B. A. ) Erwin Anderson is seen fulfilling his duties as Ag. in- structor by clarifying a point for a student. He also ad- vises FFA. B. ) Clarice Irons is enjoy- ing one of the easier duties of the difficult job as CHS lib- rarian. Along with keeping the books in order, Mrs. Irons takes care of the vidio tape, assists students and teachers in gathering information, and keeps up periodicals. C. ) The physical education instructors at CHS, Sherry Davis and Terry Bong, are seen discussing their classes. Mrs. Davis also teaches English III, coaches girls track and advises the cheerleaders. Mr. Bong passes on knowledge in General Business and coaches boys track. Remember all we've shared all we've done together. Remember what we've known and been and seen. With you is gone a part of me me forever and what is left is an emptiness that shall only be filled when we meet again. 34 A. ) Deep in discussion about the problems of the music depart- ment, Glenn Siverson and Colin Conner fail to notice the roving camera. Director's favorites always seem to get in on these in-depth conversions. B. ) Dick Van Holland spends much of his time advising the ECHO staff. He also busies him- self with Office Education. Shorthand, and Typing classes. C. C. ) Mr. Siverson's office is sometimes used for purposes other than those for which it was intended. What purpose however, is for us to know and you to guess at. D. ) Robyn Runyan and Patsy Holzwarth are seen discussing the fundamentals of the trumpet. Robyn, a practice teacher from Augustana, assisted in high school and grade school band activities. Patsy is head of the grade school band department and assists Mr. Siverson with the high school band. 35 . . . through Reading, 4Riting, and 'Rithmetic A. ) Smiling in the face of masses of junior high students is not an easy task. However it is accomplished by junior high teachers Delores Molstad and Rhonda Christen- sen. They instruct English and social studies for the seventh and eighth graders. Mrs. Molstad also teaches typing for eighth graders. B. ) Either cameras or junior high students make some people very uptight. Gordon Grimsrud instructs eighth grade science classes. Dennis Hegg joined the staff this year as instructor of seventh science and math. Both are junior high atheletic coaches. C. B. C. ) The more the merrier is heard as cooks attack the piles of dirty dishes left by students after the noon meal. D. ) Between 650 and 675 hungry students wait in line for their noon meal among the three schools. Responsible for preparing the food are: D. Van Bockern, C. McVay, L. Mercer, M. Romereim, E. Reirson, and S. Smith. These women bake 40 loaves of bread and prepare 70 to 115 pounds of meat every day, along with their other duties. 36 D. A. ) Instructor of junior high social studies is Aries Van Hunnik. He also teaches a short course in gun safety. B. ) One of Wayne Hermsen's duties is punching meal tickets to admit students to the noon meal. He also advises junior high math and coaches junior high athletics. C. ) Shown demonstrating the school's new boiler are CHS custodians Kay Jones and Clarence Hartland. They keep the school in shape and are on hand for all school events. D. ) Providing transportation to and from school are the bus drivers. The drivers for the 1975-1976 year are, first row: Dennis Lundstrom, Kevin Beck, and Darrell Nelson; second row: Loretta Johnson, Russ Hammond, and Cathy Sorlie; third row: Marvin Schultz, John Jones, and Dick Wegener. Not pictured are drivers Dick Lien and Everett Wilcynski. The Rainbow William Wordsworth My heart leaps up when I behold A Rainbow in the sky: So was it when my life began; So is it now I am a Man; So be it when I shall grow old, Or let me die! The Child is Father of the Man; And I could wish my days to be Bound each to each by natural piety. 37 rffC .'IVi A. ) Apparently someone thought the em- cees, Nancy Ellis and Lynn Hurley, needed a little help with their jokes.

Peggy Morgan would scream at her sister Betty. This was heard during the All High Play under the direction of Gary Schultz. This three act comedy takes place in an average size town a few years ago. Peggy and Betty know that their father needs money for the new hospital he wants to build. As Peggy tries to become important, she sends a telegram to her Uncle Syl, whom her father hates. At this time Peggy joins a sorority. She cannot speak for 48 hours, so when her uncle comes, she can't explain why she wants him. To make sure she doesn't speak, Gwen comes and stays. While she is there, Gwen tries to take Peggy's boyfriend, Willis. This infuriates Peggy. Meanwhile, all the time Uncle Syl is there he tries to sell marvelous tonic, which makes Dr. Morgan mad. Over all Peggy creates a big mess. Julie Strand, Joan Dykstra, Jon Sogn, and Brock Angelos head a cast of twelve freshmen, sophmores, and juniors.

D. . . . is to praise Ever since Biblical art had its be- ginning in the paintings produced in the passages of the Roman Catacombs, man has used pictures to express his feelings a- bout his faith. This year, CHS produced its own version of the Christmas story, presented to the public on December 17 and 18, by bringing to life the old re- ligious masterpieces of great artists made meaningful tnrough song and story. A. ) Christmas Chimes , portrayed by M. Torkelson, N. Montisano and S, Mar- kle, signifies the coming of the Christ child. B. ) N. Montisano and J.

A. ) The Shepherds Come is shown by J. Fossum, R. Sandnes, A. Hammerstrom, S. Crawford, J, Gillespie, and R. Hilt. The shepherds went with haste to find Mary and Joseph and the babe. When they had seen Him, they made it known every- where that the child had been bom. All that had heard it wondered at the things the shepherds had told them.

When Jesus was born in the days of King Herod the wise men from the East traveled to Jerusalem.

Herod sent them to Bethlehem to bring back word of his location so Herod could also visit him. The wise men followed the star to Bethlehem to find the newborn child. C. ) Adoration of the Wise Men is signified by J. Gillespie, R. Hilt, G. Kidd, R. Sandnes, T. Monen, R. Bryjui- son, and S. Keizer.

Mr. Gary Schultz directed the play where Meg Wheeler heads to New York and meets two brothers, Miles and Evan Doughton, both rich and single. Setting her hopes on Evan, she engages Miles in helping her to capture Evan's heart. In the process, Meg falls in love with Miles.

It is reaching for a dream, a star. Life is seeing the world through eyes of tenderness. It is being aware of the needs of others, loving with openheartedness, and speaking a quiet word of comfort. Life is looking up a mountain and not being afraid to climb. It is believing in the wonder of life, the miracle of creation, the rapture of love, the beauty of the universe, and the dignity of every human being.
