Natalie Gibson Leslie Hayes Homecoming Proves a Success Traces of low spirits could be detected during the first part of the week; but by Friday everyone was flying high. This was the first year in a long time that most of the people seemed to have participated in or helped with the ceremonies. The week was shortened because of no school on Monday for Columbus Day. Tuesday was Hat Day and Baggy Day and both guys and girls participated. Cowboy hats seemed to be the most popular. A few people borrowed their parent’s or boyfriend’s clothes to be baggy and many wore overalls. The typical 50’s Day was Wednesday, with bobby socks, rolled up jeans, pony tails, and lipstick. Many bold lip-marks could be found on both guys’ and girls' cheeks. This day was also the start of the gym decorating. The halls were stampeded by elephants, bears, mice, cats, and dogs on Security Day — luckily they were all stuffed. Thursday seemed to be the day for the girls to go back to their early childhood. Thursday night, a few people joined the cheerleaders in the roasting of the Panthers at the Bonfire. Finishing up the loose ends of decorating the gym and organizing the parade and ceremonies seemed to take up most of Friday, but the students still had time to dress up in their best. The Homecoming Week ended successfully being the first win of the season against Tripoli 20-14. The dance was also a success with Steadfast playing hard rock. a.

The Charles William Theatre Room at the Allerton Axtell Inn was draped in blue and silver to intensify the theme, “Reflections of the Past.” Formal attire was donned by all. Long dresses, suits, and tuxes seemed to transform and disguise everyone who attended. The opening welcome was given by Deanne Averhoff and followed by a response given by Robert Benson. Mrs. Barb Harken was the speaker of the night, adding humor to the somewhat solemn occasion by commenting on a few of the seniors. Robert and Natalie then followed up by reading a few of the seniors’ wills to the juniors. Ending the program were Angie Weber and David Shimp reading some of the seniors’ prophecies. After a meal of roast beef, augratin potatoes, corn, green beans and a salad bar, there was an intermission which gave people the choice of sitting in the balcony or waiting for the tables to be moved back for the dance floor. It was also in this time space that the band, Shane, was setting up. Around 10:30 the royalty was named, Deanne Averhoff — Princess, Rich Nesbit — Prince, Ken Kuenstling — King, and Maggie Staebell — Queen. After this, people began filtering out in small groups to enjoy the rest of the evening and morning. 17 18 Prince: Rich Nesbit son of Mr. and Mrs. Russell Nesbit Princess: Deanne Averhoff daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Arnold Averhoff a.

Carnival 2 Turns Out to be 1 The 1979-80 carnival theme was 'Wrangler.' There were 22 booths and activities ranging from a basketball throw to a make up booth. Over 20 businesses from around the area donated prizes to help in the carnival’s success. The carnival, sponsored by the Dunkerton Education Association, involved every teacher, staff member, administrator and a few parents. Junior high and high school students helped out by having booths and donating their earnings to the carnival fund. Fifth and sixth graders helped out by selling raffle tickets. There were about two times as many people attending than last year, and three times as much money was made.

Ag. building ready was putting in the heating system, followed closely by general readying of the shop. The annual Greenhand Chili Supper was held on October 17, 1979. All freshmen were invited, along with their parents. Five F.F.A. members attended the National F.F.A. Convention in Kansas City, they were: Tom Gamerdinger, Dan Rigdon, Scott Rigdon, Scott Segebarth, and Brian Weber.

Students Devote Their Free Time to Helping Teachers Under the leadership of Mrs. Nancy Moss the SES girls put in many hours of hard work during the past year. Being an SES member meant giving up those needed study halls, doing the little jobs that no teacher wants to do, or staying at school all day instead of using senior privileges and going home early. All these sacrifices really pay off, though, when the teacher gives the student a pat on the shoulder and a sincere thank you. Besides all the work they did, in the fall of 1979 they took a trip to Ghost Town park in Cedar Falls and had one of the most fun picnics imaginable. A group of teachers and students arriving at the park early had more time to explore as they waited for the lost bus to find its way. The picnic ended with a very chilling watertight. a.

New Ways Bring New Things b There were many new ideas, plays, and practice drills for the girls’ basketball team this year. Most of the ingenuity came from the new head coach Robert Hutchcroft. The team initiated him with something new — injuries, because he came from coaching a team with few injuries. They worked as a team to overcome these obstacles.

New classes like Composition, Creative Writing, Mass Media, and Short Story gave students and teachers more of a variety in learning. The senior class and a few juniors will be old enough to join the voters bandwagon, so they have been listening to the campaigns, and are anxious and somewhat hesitant at getting their feet wet.” The Iowa City Basketball Team became one of the Final Four. Pope John Paul II visited Des Moines for a day. Several schools were let out and many things were done to pay tribute to the man. He was taken to the Living History Farms during his brief visit. This year yielded a mild winter with only one snow day to the dismay of most school goers. The trial of Micheal Moses, a convicted murderer from Waterloo, was the first in several years to be televised. A law was passed so it is now legal to go into a courtroom with a minimal amount of recording and visual equipment. The old Penney's building in Waterloo was dynamited to make ready for a hotel to accommodate Conway Civic Center visitors. On April 11th the Peoples Bank of Dunk-erton was robbed. The thieves, a father and daughter, were apprehended on the same day with approximately $2,400. John Wayne Gacy, a former Waterloo resident, was convicted of murdering more people than any other in American history. 75 Ken Kuenstling Monica Lazemby Worldwide Happenings Cost for regular gasoline was around $1.15 and gasohol and unleaded ranged from $1.20-$1.28. Inflation was a major problem for all Americans. A major loss was felt by all western movie goers this year. John Wayne, the famed actor,'died. Mr. Wayne had spanned five decades of acting. In November, 50 Americans were taken hostage by Iranian militants because the U.S. was providing the deposed Shah with medical aid. After helping him, he left for Mexico, Panama, and finally Egypt. If he were to be returned to Iran he would be given a trial and possibly executed. Letters and cards were being sent to the hostages on both Christmas and Easter. Flags were set to flying in a show of distress for the hostages. After the Iranian incident, Russia made a move on Afghanistan since defenses were at a probably low. After Russia’s invasion. President Carter set about boycotting the Olympics for American athletes. This was a disappointment to the athletes since the Winter Olympics had proven so profitable for the Americans with Eric Heiden winning 5 gold medals and the U.S. Hockey team beating the famed Russians. Along with April came the 10,000 Cubans trying to escape their country with the help of the Peruvian government, with only 3,500 to be admitted into the U.S. Mount St. Helen in Washington was bubbling and readying itself for an eruption. Tornadoes were worse than ever in the South with minimal death tolls but damages and injuries high. New Orleans received its 100 year flood with graveyards disassembling and homes ruined.

Though they may be soon forgotten, when they make that possible comeback, the class of '80 can always say, I remember when .. Disco started dying out and hard rock was ever fading, while country-western and easy listening instrumentals filtered their way in. Clogs were a newcomer, worn with cuffed jeans and occasionally with a stylishly slit-ted skirt. The layered look was in, and pullovers with ties led girls in fashion. Gold chains were also quite popular with both guys and gals wearing them. Hairstyles varied but curls were definitely in.” Most all of the girls had perms, and even a few guys ventured to try them. Movies includes Kramer-vsKramer with its out of the ordinary plot of divorce and child custody. The Jerk starring Steve Martin was self-explanatory at being a comedy, 1941 was another comedy with John Belu-shi in a starring role, and Halloween jolted the crowds with what used to be the imaginary Boogie man coming to life. After Ayatollah Khomeini overthrew the Iranian government, dart boards with his picture became rather popular. Top singles of the year that soared on the charts were ‘‘Pop Music” by M and Longer by Dan Fogelberg. Donna Summer was tops again this year with On the Radio and Enough is Enough, a duet sung with Barbra Streisand. Instrumentals by Chuck Mangione sneaked their way to the top. TV shows like 60 Minutes and 20 20 with their consumer information were leaders. Saturday Night Live was ever popular, while new shows like The Dukes of Hazzard and WKRP in Cincinnati were favorites. Real People and That’s Incredible gave people a chance to show off their “odd” streaks, and also rose in the ratings. Plastic hands with sayings were stuck on front windshields waving back and forth with the car movement. Mopeds started filtering themselves onto the streets in increasing numbers. Roller-skating started to come back after its inspiration from television and movies. Celeste Van Wey Mike Wells Involvement The 1979-80 school year was one of unusual calm. Everyone was satisfied with hitting the books instead of one another. Sixteen seniors graduated midterm and entered into various professions such as: farming, armed forces, homemaking, work at Deeres and other jobs, and advanced education with majors in cosmetology, art, and welding. These seniors were: Randy Magee, Dave Teidt, Pat Heiple, Marla French, Greg Bunger, Mike Koster, Celeste Van Wey, Jeff Wheeler, Jeff McNamee, Dan Donahue, Terry Gamerdinger, Robin Reed, Dan Niedert, Ken Etringer, and Dan Jacobsen. The majority of full year seniors have plans of going on to college, tech schools and work. A few planned careers are in accounting, secretarial, mechanics, meat processing, drafting, homemaking, and various agriculture oriented jobs. Serge Raicher was an addition to the senior class.

A new scheduling system was introduced based on semester courses. Each student was given cards with their names on them and were instructed to put one in the corresponding slot to indicate which classes they chose to take.

Invitations were sent out to the people receiving the awards and their parents but anyone was welcome to come. New awards were handed out this year. Peer Helper students of the first and second semester classes received awards and an addition to this was the Peer Helper of the Year. Special Service Awards were handed out to the students who worked on projects that really didn’t fit in any other categories. Academic Awards to the top ten of each class were also a first for this year. The order of the night’s events got mixed up but the following also received awards: Vocal Music, Speech, Instrumental Music, Yearbook, Newspaper, Business Education, S.E.S., Home Economics, Cheerleading, Girls Track, Boys Track, Golf, and Student Senate. This was a successful night in which more than half of the student body was honored and the tradition will probably be carried on. a. and b.
