The senior year was filled with the excitement of graduating, yet there was also a scary reality of meeting the outside” world. Mr. Murphy gave the senior class a taste” of the world’s financial matters by speakers in certain professional fields. Speakers on insurance, banking, and law taught seniors valuable things they need to know. A senior field day to the Mental Health Institute in Independence was a new experience. The main emphasis dealt with alcholism and drugs and their effects. After the tour, the seniors enjoyed feasting at the Pizza Hut. Fourteen seniors graduated at midterm to engage in farming, work at Deeres and other jobs, join the armed forces, and continue with advanced education. The seniors that graduated early were: Steve Carlson, Pam Flowers, Tammy French, Tony Gamerdinger, Bob Kajewski, Rich Marvin, Scott McMahon, Matt Meether, Rich Russell, Todd Salisbury, Tim Schultz, Tim Smith, Mark Speer, and Troy VanWey. Full year seniors had future plans of college, technical school, or entering the job market. A few of the planned careers were nursing, accounting, data processing, public relations advertising, secretarial, drafting, and commercial art. Fads and Fashion . . . Fads come and go every year, always changing or making comebacks. Five years from now, some of you might not remember the in” thing, but this is dedicated to the seniors of 1979 who will never forget. Disco was the theme of the year, whether it be in clothes or music. The feminine look made a comeback for the girls, yet up-dated. High heel shoes were worn with everything from dresses to jeans. Most every girl had a pair, and wouldn’t be caught on a dance floor without them. Veronica Ortner Randy Morris Shelley Nichols Lori Peterson 15 Baggy shirts with thin belts around the waist topped off the 1979 fashion, and for an added layered look vests were worn over the shirts. Disco bags and cigarette-styled jeans were two of the top fashion fads of the year. Disco bags were small, flashy satin bags with long straps worn across the body. Cigarette-styled jeans were straight-legged jeans for skinny-legged girls, worn with high heels. The most popular hair style for the guys was a layered cut, to make them seem the outdoor type. For girls, the popular style was called Le Savage. This was a layered cut, but curled all over like a layered afro. Movies were popular, although they weren’t seen as often due to the expensive admission price of $3.00. Well-known comedies of the year included Animal House, California Suite, and Every Which Way But Loose. Other popular movies included Grease, Ice Castles, and Superman. Popular 45's of the year held a disco beat. It was a good year for Donna Summer with top chart hits Last Dance and Heaven Knows, and the Bee Gees creating Too Much Heaven and Tragedy. Rod Stewart came back with Do You Think I’m Sexy? Don Akroyd and John Belushi, from Saturday Night Live, created the Blues Brothers and their hit song Soul Man. The new award-winning group of the year, A Taste of Honey, held high on the charts with Boogie Oogie Oogie. Television, the old standby, even had popular results in 1979. Mork and Mindy, Dallas, and Soap were the most popular during the year. Other favorites included Three's Company and How the West was Won. This year comedy seemed to be the theme instead of violence.

Pope Paul VI died on August 6, 1978. The Conclave then honored Albino Cardinal Luciani, Pope John Paul I, 65, who only served 33 days due to his death from a heart attack. The Conclave, after a long, tiring session, finally chose a non-Italian pope, the first in 455 years. Honored was Cardinal Karol Wojtyla from Poland; the 264th Pope who became John Paul II. Even though there had been religious cults around, they were not really recognized until December 4,1978, when news came from Guyana, South America that 900 people had committed mass suicide. These people were members of the People's Temple Cult at Jonestown, started by their leader Reverend Jim Jones. The Year 1979 was declared the International Year of the Child by the UNICEF organization. The Iran Conflict started a civil war; consequently, the Shah of Iran left and Muslim leader, Ayatollah Khomeini, took over. Due to the Muslims' beliefs, women’s rights were revoked. U.S. Foreign advisors and citizens were told to leave the country. There were brutal murders of people once associated with the Shah and the sale of oil dropped by four million barrels a day. An ever growing energy crisis in the U.S. worsened. Rising inflation raised the price of gasoline to 75c per gallon. Rumors have it that by 1980 it would be $1.00 per gallon. After years of fighting, Egyptian President Anwar Sadat, and Israel’s Prime Minister Menachem Begin signed a peace treaty March 26, 1979. Both received the Nobel Prize for 1978. The Equal Rights Amendment was given an extension by the Congress. 18 ■■■ Troy Van Wey Diane Waskow Jackie Voss Thompson Tracy Wheat David Widdel 9urrounding Events...

There was a railroad derailment near Dunkerton. Cars filled with Natural Gas derailed. People within a one mile radius of the derailment sight were evacuated for one day. Due to fast melting snow, Crane Creek overflowed its banks. This was the biggest flood since 1968. Dunkerton received a new mayor, George Jenson.

First of all, they had two new sponsors, Mrs. Julie Foth and Mrs. Candy Smith. Another change was in the number of cheerleaders on the squad. It was found that eight, rather than six cheerleaders, adds a lot more variety in ideas and allows for more complex stunts, as well as a lot of additional pep and school spirit. They had a raffle on the last day of school, and had stationery, watermelon, and concession stands at Dunkerton Days to raise money for new uniforms. In the summer of 1978, Suzanne Shimp, Carolyn Wheeler, and Mar-nae Wheat attended a cheerleading camp for one week. They learned many new chants and cheers and got several ideas for things to do. Everyone attended a one-day seminar in October. The money-making projects were homecoming buttons, spirit towels, and Valentine s candy.
