Canton High School - Backtrackin Yearbook (Canton, SD)

Text from Pages 1 - 128 of the 1981 volume:

1981 Backtrackin’ Vo ume XXXIV Canton High Scho Canton, So. Dak. I jfggg From the bright blue of a South Dakota summer sky to the flashing red in the rearview mirror — color is the spice in $pf daily lives. We can be green with envy, feeling blue, seeing red, yellow-bellied, purple with passion, tickled pink, in the red or in the black. Whether it is the actual presence of color or a iere allusion to it, the lackof color would create a definite void in our lives. Therefore, the 1981 'Backtrackin’” is dedicated to all the parents, teachers, and friends who add color to our world. I fl 4 LIFE The Canton community provided students with a multitude of social activities. Community as well as school sponsored events gave students a variety of opportunities for leisure time activities. Many stu- dents were involved in church and community ac- tivities such as Luther League, Junior Optomists, and RCYF. Cruising the main street seemed to be the number one attraction. Following closely were eating at the bowling alley and attending dances. Students in Canton discovered that there is, indeed, life outside school. 4 Student Life Accent School Routine OPPOSITE TOP LEFT: Crusing continued to be a popular past time during the year.

The community provides for development of indi- vidual interests such as tennis, raquetball, golf, swimming, bowling, auto racing, and hunting. Those more interested in pursuing team sports can play teener or legion baseball, slow-pitch soft- ball, or bowl on a league. Many students turn their sporting interest into jobs as lifeguards, or coaches for junior teams. Those who like to ski find that they must also enjoy traveling in order to participate. Student Life 7 Employment ««I V Part Time Many students take advantage of part-time em- ployment to get a sneak preview of their futures. Part-time jobs give students an early idea as to their likes and dislikes in the world of work. As well as screening interests, part-time employ- ment gives students a chance to develop skills in a particular area. In addition to the obvious monetary rewards, the student are given a chance to exhibit the responsibility they have developed. When asked why they worked, the majority of the students replied quickly, “Money!” 8 Student Life Sketches Preview Of Future OPPOSITE UPPER LEFT: Jeff Ulmer.

Student Life 9 Elections, Assassinations, Homecomings National and state events played a vital part in shaping the 1981 school year. The economy, vio- lence, and progress all affected life at Canton High. Of more immediate importance, however, was the Dakota Proposition. Dakota Proposition was a movement on the part of taxpayers to curb rising taxes. Local school districts could have felt the monetary belt-tightening. Olympics and politics became inter-twined as the United States initiated a boycott of the Moscow- based summer events in protest of Russia’s invasion of Afganistan.

Future plans were on many minds as the seniors traveled to Lennox on October 7 for career day. Seniors met with counsel- ors from colleges, universities, and the military. Homecoming proved to be a busy time for the seniors. Ten seniors played their last homecoming foot- ball game. The Seniors float took awards for both most-beautiful and best over-all. With winter came participation in sports. Four senior girls competed in the state basketball tournament. Wrestling, volleyball, and boys bas- ketball Filled many hours. Concerts, contests, and plays occu- pied much time in the spring. The seniors presented the play “Good Night, Ladies.” Graduation brought the busy times to an end, and gave the seniors a chance to prepare for their futures.

Election year brought a change of presidents as Americans chose Republican Ron- ald Reagan over incumbent Democrat Jimmy Carter. South Dakota also made a political change as long-time Senator George McGovern lost to James Abdnor. Climate in South Dakota also underwent some dramatic changes. Little rain and no snow (an entire winter without a snow day!) were accompa- nied by dramatic fluctuations in temperature. January saw 65°weather while the mercury dropped to -20° in February. The spring brought no relief from the drought — but windy days were abundant. High prices, including the sky-rocketing price of that ever-needed commodity, gasoline, were at the top of everyone’s list of things to worry about. Despite the number of things to worry about, the seniors found many things to enjoy. The class of 1981 compiled their own book of lists of their favorites during their final year of high school.

All freshmen took IPS. The physical properties of matter were thoroughly covered. The course completed a three-year science program. Biology was available to stu- dents who had completed IPS. Study of plant and animal life was the main objective of this course. Cells, heredity, and ecology were some of the areas covered. Chemistry and physics were offered to the more advanced science students. Chemistry covered the physical aspects of advanced science, while physics apllied mathematical principles to science. Mr. Robert Herting taught biology and IPS. He also coached Girls’ Basketball and led the varsity team to 2nd place in the state. Mr. Harlan Hoff was in charge of the chemistry and physics classes.

Students enrolled in these courses study all aspects of people; where they’ve been; where they are; and why they are where they are. Juniors are required to com- plete a year of United States His- tory. Events leading from the ex- ploration of North America to the present-day United States are studied. Seniors have the pleasure of completing at least one semester of American Government. Struc- ture, work, problems, and termin- ology of government on the Feder- al, Local, and State levels are cov- ered. The study of the free enter- prise system through a unit on personal finance was a new addi- tion to the government course. Sociology and psychology stu- dents have a chance to study the human being in relationship to so- ciety and to himself. Sociology and psychology are taught by Mr. Joe Haugen. OPP.

Long hours were spent in the spring as pages needed to be completed. Missing pages, ruined pic- tures, and lost copy were just some of the agonies the staff lived through. Yearbook and photography camps are attended during the summer to prepare the staff for their task. Each year the “Backtrackin’” is entered for competition with yearbooks from high schools of ap- proximately the same size. Adviser to the yearbook was Miss Shirley Hart. Backtrackin’ 101 Fall Plays Combine Comedy And Drama The troubles of an elderly man provided the plot for “S Is For Sloane.” In this modern day comedy, Sloane decided to sue his doctor for the stitching job done on his chest after open-heart sur- gery. The soar, he claimed, was ruining his social life. After having trouble getting a lawyer to take his case, Miss Sayers, a young woman just out of law school, consents to handling Sloane’s unusual suit. The plot that followed involved the actions of Sloane, Miss Sayers, and three additional characters: Miss Daniels, the scatter-brained secretary who was more concerned with her fingernails and outof- town boyfriend that she was with typing; Mr. Schuttlehooker, a young playboy lawyer who had his eyes on Miss Daniels; and Miss UPPER RIGHT: Miss Watson knew it was true love when she set her eyes on Mr. Sloane.

She is then frightened into silence by Smedly, who has plans for Harlowe and Priscilla. The events leading up to the end involve a kidnapping and a brawl. Involved in this play were the characters Smedly Smidgen, a das- tardly villian who caused some trouble; Miss Priscilla, an attractive, young school teacher who refused to be taken advantage of by Smed- ly’s trickery; Harlowe Starbuck, an all-around good guy who never had any objections when it came to helping Miss Priscilla; Jenny, the little girl who was a witness to one of Smedly’s dastardly deeds; Freckles, Jenny’s practical joker friend; Becky, the crippled niece of Miss Priscilla; and Miss Tyler, the victim of one of Smedley’s deeds.
