Shane Although we seem to be apart, the essence of you is in our heart. We’ll miss your special gifts each day, of laughter and friendship you brought our way. We believe someday we’ll meet again to live life the way it should have been.

Their lives are different. far apart from mundane ordinary life. Not having to stop anywhere leads to the freedom to do anything. People with no limits are students at Dunkerton. They don't like to stop at the ordinary limits, and likewise, they achieve more. The students look far ahead, and build the foundations of their lives at school. Dunkerton school begins their unlimited lives. 3 On a physics field trip at UNI, Alan Averhoff uses an air table to test the conservation of momentum in an elastic collision. 2 Randy Nesbit and Jon Rathe declare Wade Suede Shatter king of the study hall. 2 Theme 1 During Basic Writing.

It strikes all seniors from the first day of school and progresses, becoming most severe right after prom. The symptoms include: uncontrollable daydreaming, the inability to concentrate, and the overwhelming desire to graduate. This disease, senioritis, reached the senior class in epidemic proportions. Some juniors even caught this highly contagious disease; but, for the most part, it remained localized in the senior class. Teachers recognized this illness when seniors began doing silly little things that only elementary students do, and when they continually begged. Let's not do anything for the rest of the year. The symptoms seemed to subside right around the week before graduation, to be replaced with: reminiscing, nostalgia, and, of course, some tears. 1 During a Home Planning field trip, Deneen Mills looks around with interest at Jim and Denise Bouska's earth home. 6 Seniors i 1 Having a love for books.

With the economy as bad as it is, education after high school has become less of a luxury but more of a necessity. Employers look for workers trained in skills for more technical jobs, like programming a computer. It’s no wonder that more than half of the seniors decided to further their education somehow. After carefully examining the costs of schools, most of those who chose a four-year college selected one of the three state-funded colleges. Still, some decided to attend one of the many expensive, private colleges. But most popular of all was Hawkeye Institute of Technology. Hawkeye Tech provided a solution for those who weren't ready for college, didn't want to go, or just wanted out in the job market fast. Obviously, more and more, students recognize the value of a good, sound education. 1 For Homecoming, Barb Eldridge helps the cheerleaders out by making a few signs to promote spirit. 8 Seniors 1 Instead of sitting In study hall, Ann Brockman uses the more comfortable library for working on her government. 2 At the yearbook beach party, Larry Seemann sets himself for a test of strength against Bob Schuety.

Seniors 11 Kevin Salisbury Ken Schumacher Larry Seeman Karl Shepherd Battling the Elements Despite the wet, cool weather, the seniors enjoyed their senior week. On Monday, a cool but sunny day, they canoed the Cedar River in Waverly. Some brave seniors even jumped into the ice-cold river only to freeze to death for the rest of the day. Tuesday brought the traditional senior picnic held at George Wyth Park. They had to cancel their plans of going on the Waverly waterslide because of chilly temperatures. On Wednesday it rained through their trip to Iowa City to see the Hawkeye football stadium, basketball arena, and museum. Most seniors didn't mind getting a little wet for the chance to touch Steve Carfino's locker, though. They battled with icy breezes and the constant threat of thunderstorms when they painted the wrestling room red on Thursday. Although it didn’t rain, the seniors still got sprinkled on, only with red paint. But on Friday, the warmest, sunniest, most beautiful day of all, the red-painted speckled seniors spent the day inside at the senior breakfast and rehearsal. 1 Adding wood to the fire, Ron Nelson gets the fire ready for cooking on the coals, damp senior picnic at George Wyth Park. 12 Seniors 1 Upon arriving at the Waverly Waterslide, Susan Smith and other seniors are informed that it is too cold to get wet! 2 Painting under the eaves of the wrestling building, Kevin Salisbury makes sure he covers every spot with red paint.

Busily, they planned the Junior-Senior Prom to make it a smashing success. Never forgetting their homework, the juniors studied hard to meet the new graduation requirements — 17 credits instead of 16. Their good study skills showed up with a marked improvement on ITED (Iowa Tests of Educational Development) scores. Although studious, the juniors found time to participate in extracurricular activities. The junior girl athletes composed most of the basketball team, contributing to its success. Also the juniors formed a large part of vocal music. Undeniably, the juniors’ hard work benefited many areas of the school.

Since a higher percentage of sophomores stress advancing their education in more challenging classes, college-bound courses such as, chemistry and advanced math, filled to capacity. Not only did most maintain a higher grade average, but the sophomores' ITED (Iowa Tests of Educational Development) proved their great ability. Their 98 percentile national and 93 percentile state showed not only Dunkerton teachers’ excellence in educating, but also the sophomores’ overwhelming desire to learn. 1 These three sophomores, Terry French, Hans Arwine, and Dean Nordman, try to make the important decision of selecting a class ring.

To strive for academic excellence, junior high students must now pass all classes or take them over during their freshman year. This ensures that all students are ready for high school and able to do well. The freshmen do not go without reward though. Now, they may take harder classes in English and science, usually reserved for upperclassmen only. 1 At Explore 82 in the Uni-Dome, Amy Speer and Tina Knebel look at information about different careers.

Many students wrongly believe that a teacher's day begins at 8:00 and ends at 3:30, and that their week ends on Friday. In fact, teachers arrive at least a half hour early to carefully plan their daily lessons. Most stay long beyond 3:30 to correct homework, tests, and help students with any problems. They spend weekends correcting homework — the homework students have spent weekends working on. Also, teachers coordinate extracurricular activities, which keep them late after school and working on weekends. They collect tickets at ball games, chaperone dances, the pep bus, and club trips. Contrary to most students’ beliefs, the teacher’s job is complex indeed. 1 With her sincere Interest, Mrs. Baumgartner looks at Robin Marvel's family pictures. 2.

Staff 27 Traditional events inspire emotions felt at no other time. Feelings experienced during these events vary from pride and excitement to nostalgia and sadness. Traditional events, long awaited, long remembered, bring with them a sense of belonging as well as a spirit of unity. Traditions provide memories that last a lifetime. 1 Before the start of the game, Mark Anderson and Trent Graham are the first through the traditional Homecoming break-through. For this year's coronation the students not only crowned a queen but also a king. Al Averhoff received the honor of becoming our first king with Tina Nicks reigning queen. With Allison Baugher, the first female emcee, coronation proceeded smoothly. Bob Hogue from Channel 7 News gave everyone spirit with an encouraging pep talk. Michelle Zabel sang to the queen the traditional “May You Always. 1 Tina Knebel displays the “Joan Jett Look on Punk Rock Day. 2 Going back to ancient Greece, Kathy Kajewski and Amy Speer spend the day in togas. 3 After first coping with the inconvenience of putting on pantyhose, Danny Cutsforth tries to sit like a lady during Opposite Sex Day. 4 Kent Salisbury flaunts his version of the New Wave garb. 4 New Twists to a Tradition Homecoming 29 3 1 More than 15 hours spent stuffing napkins pay off in the form of first place for the Junior-Senior float. 2 The Bottom Five: Allison Baugher, Chris Wilcox, Debbie Vaughn.

They chose Monday as Hat and Button Day and Opposite Sex Day. Tuesday, Punk Rock Day, brought students to school with frizzy, multi-colored hair and strange outfits. Wednesday revealed everyone dressed in his worst and acting his weirdest since this was Fredricksburg Falcon, our Homecoming rivals, Day. Also, they chose Thursday as Ancient History Day which brought many students and teachers dressed as Romans in togas or as cave people in furs. Friday, the traditional Red and Black Day, students came to school dressed in school colors. 1 “I couldn’t believe it.

Homecoming 31 Friday night was the football game and dance. This year yielded another rainy homecoming. The cheerleaders, fans, and football players were all soaked by the end of the double overtime game. The dance was a big success with the band Zephyr. The student senate members decorated the gym in the school colors making it look fantastic. 1 Along with the rest of the Dunkerton crowd, Angie West, Julie Robinson, and Kathy Shephard boogie down to Zephyr. 2 The Royal Couple, Queen Tina Nicks and King Al Averhoff reign over the nighttime Homecoming activities. 3 The Intricate number the band performs during halftime reveals the work of first period.

Queen Tina Nicks, share a special dance. Homecoming 33 Besides the usual homecoming and prom, the different student organizations sponsored an unusually large number of dances for the eighth through twelfth grades. To start the year on the right foot, on August 27, at the end of the first week of school, the yearbook staff hosted a back-to-school dance. The dance featured musical entertainment from DJ's, The Land of 0z.” Then came the Christmas dance, also yearbook staff sponsored. Alumni yearbook editor Lori Salisbury returned with a few friends from UNI to provide DJ music for the dance. For Valentine's Day, the student senate gave a dance with music by “Dusk, a group that all who attended the dance enjoyed immensely. The combined efforts of the student senate and yearbook staff arranged a Sadie Hawkins dance. But an unexpected snow storm cancelled it. Unfortunately, they were unable to reschedule the dance. 1 Since rock and roll is her favorite music, Sherry Happel really enjoys the Land of Oz's selections. 2 Lori Happel, Julie Robinson and Julie Nation get with the beat at the Back to School Dance. 3 Michelle Zabel really gets into the music while dancing to Land of Oz. 34 Dances 1 Reviving a 60’s fad, Deb Vaughn swings in her mini-skirt, while Amy Shatzer kicks up her heels to the music of “The Land of 0z. 2 Michelle Zabel, Amy Shatzer, Angie West, Julie Gamerdlnger and others give all they have at the Christmas Dance. 3 This group illustrates the familiar Everybody in the Middle! technique used by many shy dancers.

This was a change from the Ramada Inn location of the past two years. Liberty” performed the music and the colors were peach and cinnabar. All year, the juniors worked hard selling magazines and working in the concession stands to fund the prom. Some juniors even went to the Aller-ton early to decorate and set up tables. Each of the senior girls received the tables’ centerpiece — bouquets of flowers. Comments of her humorous past experiences in study hall were given by Natalie Baugher. For example, one of her favorites was the episode of Deenie Shimp’s experience with Robin Harvel's contacts. 1 The moment hat finally come for seniors Rhonda Nesbit and Sandy Waschkat to read the Last Will and Testament to the skeptical juniors. 21982 graduate Jim Nation enjoys another year of prom with Lori Stewart.

Kris Weber’s hard work earns her the McElroy Scholarship. 2 By keeping an average composite of 92 percent, these students graduate with honors. 3 Anxiously awaiting the commencement to begin, the soon-to-be graduates line up in the lunchroom, taking a moment of quiet thought. 4 A surprised Deb Vaughn hugs Mrs. Schmidt when her name is announced as the DEA scholarship recipient. Graduation 39 This year’s graduating class had a lot to be proud of. More than two-thirds, 34 of 55 students, decided to continue their education either at technical schools or at two and four year colleges. Two joined the military service. Their high academic achievement showed up with an unusually large number of scholarships and ten honor students. As a change, the seniors voted at the beginning of the year to further honor their graduating class by having students speak at graduation, rather than the usual public figure. Sherry Happel and Allison Baugher gave fabulous speeches, reminiscing about the past 13 years, giving a more personal touch to the exercises. Allison Baugher received the Citizenship Award for her four years of involvement and service to the school. Academically, Kris Weber was awarded the McElroy Scholarship and Deb Vaughn was awarded the Dunkerton Education Association Scholarship. The ten honor students were: Kris Weber, Sherry Happel, Al Averhoff, Deneen Mills, Lisa Clubine, Linda Pfiffner, Sandy Waschkat, Deb Vaughn, Rhonda Nesbit, and Robin Harvel. 1 Anita McIntosh is one of the few fortunate enough to receive a diploma from her own mother. 2 For the last time, after four years of playing piano for the band and choruses, Rhonda Nesbit accompanies the Mixed Chorus in The End or the Beginning.' 40 Graduation 1 Aroused with many emotions, the new alumni huddle proudly with their diplomas. 2 Sherry Happel’s involvement in speech during high school helps her to remain at ease as the first student speaker, while she speaks on “patience, persistence, and positive thinking.” 3 Nervously, Allison Baugher, the second student speaker, briefly rehearses her speech that reminisces the past 13 years. 3 Graduation 41 Extraordinary abilities are the spice of life. Everyone possesses a special talent, one they have worked long and hard to perfect. Talent requires expertise and skill. Talent stands out as a special, creative asset of life, one that the owner and others who just observe can enjoy. Gifts developed and exercised during youth will become a strong, cherished thing all through life. 1 Singing The Greatest Love of All” was just one of Amy Shatzer's contributions to the Swing Show. One of her other contributions was joining Shayne Pipho as the M.C.'sof the Swing Show. 42 Swing Show “Thank You for the Music” ‘‘Thank You for the Music, the theme for this year’s Swing Show, suited the show perfectly as the Swing Choir, solos, groups, and skits entertained, delighting all those who attended. For the first time ever the Swing Choir had a family trio. Rhonda, Randy, and Robi Nesbit dazzled the audience with the song Let Me Be There. The Swing Show members gave a superb performance in spite of injuries. Wade Shatzer and Lisa Clubine performed with stitches in their arms. With a separated shoulder and his arm in a sling, Jon Hruska managed to play his 2 saxophone. Rhonda Nesbit, a car accident victim with a whiplash, played the piano. 1 The song “Leader of the Band.” which honors the singer's father, was an appropriate selection for Kent Salisbury. 2 The Nesbit family harmonizes with, Let Me Be There. 3 Gary Teisinger along with Tom Kalenske agree to the essential, responsible task of working the spotlights. 3 Swing Show 43 1 While performing “I’ve Got To Be Me. the seniors display the opposite of their personalities. 2 Senior Darrin Speed once again provides the beat to Swing Show. 3 The sopranos and basses tell through the song We Are The Chorus, how much work is involved in being in chorus. 4 With a touch of fantasy, Mary Faust and Karyn Wheat perform their version of With a Little Help From My Friends. The stage had a special look. Maroon and silver stuffed musical notes, moons, and stars hung from the ceiling. A creative elementary teacher, Mrs. Genial Mestad made the decorations. Students, mothers, and teachers made all the costumes to match the decorations. Because the students and teachers alike all put in their cooperative talents and efforts, the Swing Show was a tremendous success. Everyone involved with the Swing Show agreed that putting on the Swing Show was hard work, extra hours, and definite devotion. They also agreed it was fun to be a part of a unique experience. 1 After singing the smash hit New York, New York, Bill Faust receives a standing ovation. 2 Bringing humor to this year's Swing Show, is Craig Smith and Joel Rathe in their skit “Church Bells. 3 The Jazz Band Jazzes things up with a tune from FAME — Hot Lunch Jam.

To some, contest is a chance to perform in front of a judge who rates their singing ability. To others, it is a chance to meet students from different schools and hear a variety of music. Some participate simply because it has its own rewards. The top reward, of course, being a I rating. Another benefit, according to Amy Shatzer is it helps prepare you for the outside world by performing in front of others and proving to them you can do it. Jason Smith says that contest “provides a chance for the students to show their ambition and ability.” But whatever their reasons for participating, all students agree music contest is an enjoyable, exciting experience that they’ll remember long after high school.

Band Participates in John Deere Film 50 Instrumental This year the band had an unusual experience. John Deere invited the band to perform in a film they made of an antique tractor reunion held outside of Dunkerton. Mrs. Pohlman commented, “It was a unique experience and gave all the band members a look at the art form of film making.” After the Christmas Concert, Mrs. Pohlman distributed awards to certain band members. Jon Hruska received the Toilet Paper Award for knowing who toilet-papered the Pohlman’s house. For obvious reasons, Monty Dedor received the Ornery Award.

Fifteen nervous students were courageous enough to withstand the critical rating of a single district judge. Of the 15, eleven received I ratings. These students bit and chewed their fingernails all the way to state contest to perform their speech in front of not one, but three judges. In spite of their nervousness, the students still brought back good rating — two I's and 8 M’s. Mrs. Davis said, I am so proud of these students. Their ratings were great!

Speech Contest 53 A Sm a s hing Performance On May 6 and 7 the Drama Class presented the full-length comedy play M.A.S.H. directed by Marcia Klinefelter. The play, which took almost nine weeks of rehearsal was taken from the original story in the book by Richard Hooker. The setting depicted various areas in the compound of the 4077th Mobile Army Surgical Hospital. Korea. M.A.S.H. had a cast of 27. the biggest Dunkerton has ever had. and everyone had a lot of fun participating. Everyone seemed to be well-suited to their part and acted out their character very well. Memorable scenes include Major Burns driven to a Section 8 discharge by Hawkeye and Trapper. with a little help from Ho-Jon; Klinger selling fake real estate; the varied responses by nurses and enlisted men to the crazy but lovely Bonwit Sisters; Captain Waldowski's cure from depression with shock therapy; and Colonel Blake trying to keep everyone in line. Both performances were enjoyed by good-sized audiences. 1 Major Burns warns Klinger against being slovenly and selling crazy real estate. 2 As the Bonwit Sisters perform.

The extra time spent is always wisely exhausted, because an achiever sets goals and aims high. An achiever’s world expands as the talent develops. When more effort becomes necessary, the achievement of a goal seems more precious. As the summit of the goal is attained, achievers reach a feeling of elation. 1 At graduation. Captain Gerald E.

Art 57 Out of and in class, the art students kept themselves busy with several different activities. On their two field trips, the art classes visited the UNI Art Gallery and the Cedar Falls Rec Center. In class, the painting students painted murals of nursery rhymes and the Smurfs in the elementary. Both the drawing and painting classes completed enough projects to change the hall display every couple weeks, a nice touch to the normally dreary, dull-colored school walls. Denise Gamerdinger, senior, is a model. She completed a 12-week seminar, which is 40 hours of classroom curriculum, in the art of professional modeling. This includes the related courses of nutrition, health, aerobic dance, skin care, wardrobe selection, advanced visual poise, several types of modeling, fashion show production, visual merchandising, communications, media arts, television, and social graces. Denise has modeled in fashion shows, bridal shows, and a few ski shows, already. a? Business Education Dave DeLong was thirteen when he bought his 1969 Mustang for $100. For three years he worked on the body and engine, finishing it by his sixteenth birthday. He completed this project so well that he won third place at a Des Moines car show. Donny Miller also worked on his 1967 Camaro for three years. He did mostly body, interior, and engine work. But, unlike Dave who says that he'll never sell his car, Donny would like to sell his someday. Students agreed that the characteristic that all business courses shared was the heavy load of work. But between the nerve wracking timings in typing, the three-minute takes in shorthand, and the difficult task of balancing the books in accounting, the students found themselves well prepared for either a business school or a business job. The home ec. class, once limited to girls only, has slowly been invaded by, of all things, Guys! Although the sewing class remains strictly female, the members of the male sex joined forces and took foods classes and even Child Development. The guys that took these classes discovered that home ec. classes were not only fun but packed full of valuable information. According to Bob Hemmer, a Child Development student, Everyone, especially guys, should take Child Development. 2 1 Doug Miller and DeWayne Frost take a break during Machines class. 2 Employees of Sun-N-Ski, an accounting simulation, pose for a company picture. 58 Business Education and Home Economics 3 1 Well folk there’ nothin’ quite like those dishes’’ — Sandy Waschkat 2 Julie Robinson, Terry Manchester and llene Canfield proudly display their Pac Man cake in Food and Meal Management. 3 Deanie Shlmp applies her cake decorating expertise in Advanced Foods.

Every other Monday night, Brenda Maurer attended the Medical Explorers group at St. Francis Hospital. The Explorers toured the hospital, talking to various hospital employees. Specialists spoke at their meetings about different areas of their work. According to Brenda, “The Medical Explorers has been helpful in helping me decide about my future. With the strong emphasis on writing skills, most students think that English teachers have worked out some sort of deal with pen and paper companies. During their sophomore year, students start with Basic Writing. After that, students can count on any English course to include writing term papers and reports. Although students don't enjoy writing, they realize that college’s attitudes make learning how a necessity. The biggest complaint any college has is students lacking composition skills. English 61 For four years now, Troy Whitson has been shooting with the National Guard, which shoots every year from September to March. He has gone to the state meet in Des Moines for three years and won first place for two years. Many of this year’s math classes included skills that the student can apply in everyday life. In one such class, personal finance, students learned the pains of making a paycheck stretch to cover all bills. For ten days, Mrs. Moss gave the students a check, along with several bills. The students paid their bills trying to avoid penalties to see who had the most money left. Also, students ’shopped” by catalog to furnish a home. Both units left students wondering just how mom and dad manage each month. Students agree, the best part of shop is making things for less than half the store cost. This year, students were unlimited in ability and projects they completed. Doug L. Miller constructed a hutch, complete with glass etchings on the windows. Another student, Ron Nelson made a water-bed frame. Other projects included: coffee tables by Larry Seeman and Gary Teisinger. a chest by Diane Harvel. a cradle by Lori Rutter, and full-sized gun cabinets by Jeff DeLong and Ed Schares. With these projects, students learned how to use equipment, tools, and power machinery safely. Learning these skills not only helps for use at home, but also provides the basic skills needed for making many career choices in the industrial arts area. l 62 Math Math and Industrial Arts 2 Making sure his measurements are accurate.

Over the years, social studies has evolved to not only teach history, but to also study man’s behavior. Social Studies Survey studies everything from world history to psychology. Loading on the homework, mostly writing, Mrs. Harken gives freshmen their first taste of a college preparation class. No wonder freshmen describe the class as “a real bummer!” In Humanities, another of Mrs. Harken's killer classes, students found learning can be fun. Students made apple pies to raise money for a trip to the Nobel Conference in St. Peters, Minnesota. Speakers at the conference were Richard Leakey, Stephen Jay Gould, Irving Stone, and Sir Peter Medawar. They lectured on Darwin’s Legacy. Clearly, social studies benefits many areas of students’ education. Aside from the usual soccer, football, and volleyball, P.E. included two new units this year. First semester, students learned how to perform C.P.R. After working with the dummy, Annie, Mrs. Luloff gave students a card, certifying their qualification to perform C.P.R. But most favorite of this year’s activities was roller skating. Junior high and high school students learned how to skate backwards and how to two-step. Both of these activities added excitement to the ordinarily dreaded P.E. class. P.E. 65 Science and This year, four students participated in the Dorian Festival, held at Luther College. Out of ten applications Mrs. Pohlman sent in, the Luther Band director picked Linda Pfiffner, Lisa Clubine, Sandy Waschkat, and Cassie Mixdorf to participate. After nine and a half hours of practice all 350 participants gathered to perform the big concert. All in all, the girls felt the concert was an interesting and educational experience. The most strenuous, yet sometimes most memorable part of science class, is time spent in lab. Frog dissection didn’t bother biology students a bit this year. They continued their dissection unit, dissecting pig embryos and a calf. Chemistry labs, though, differ greatly from biology labs. Students painstakingly measured grams and moles of substances, testing the law of conservation of mass. Since physics requires such sophisticated equipment, students found themselves at UNI twice, testing the theories of motion and laws of electricity. Although labs are a pain, students agree they are an informative learning aid. Each year between third and fourth quarters, Mini Courses provide a nice change from the ordinary school routine. This year’s courses included a variety of topics, but the one that captured student interest most was the seventh hour assembly. Kevin Barnes, a magician, performed many feats, captivating students with his illusions. The magician highlighted his act by putting Angie Frost’s arm in a vegetable slicer, along with two carrots. He brought the blade down, slicing the carrots, but not her arm. 2 1 Terry Manchester volunteers to dissect a fetal pig, while Miss Lindhart explains the functions of different organs. 2 While on a field trip to UNI, senior Sherry Happel watches as Mr. Thompson adjusts a cart on the frictionless air table. 66 Science Mini Courses 1 3 1 A frightened Angle Frost turn her head as magician Kevin Barnes places her hand in a vegetable slicer. 2 During a silk flower making course taught by Kim Rigdon, Stacey Rigdon patiently forms her carnation. 3 Mr. and Mrs. Jeff Sage demonstrate Chinese cooking while Darrin Speed and Chris Wittenburg anxiously await samples.

At this year's Athletic Awards Banquet, even specators received awards. These spectator awards were given to Jim Wise for baseball, Luke Schulte and Bea Michelsen for softball, Diane Campbell for volleyball, Betty Salisbury for football, Carolyn and Norm Clubine for girls' basketball, and Bob Speed for boys' basketball. Don Briggs, the UNI wrestling coach was the speaker. The two athletes of the year were Allison Baugher and Trent Graham. Athletic Awards Banquet 71 Runners-Up For some girls, softball started in January, when they began practicing fundamental skills, like pitching. Even though they didn’t win many games, the girls enjoyed working together to reach their potential. The most memorable event, as the team members said, was placing as runners-up in the Dike tournament. The players were pleased at how they strived for their goals and ended the season with a 3-23 record. Coach Luloff reported that Allison Baugher was the most improved player and Teresa Happel was the most valuable player. 1 Running to first base.

The team, which consisted mainly of freshmen and sophomores, improved greatly as the year continued. The high point of the season was defeating the fine Denver team, for their first win, with a score of 12-10 at Dunkerton. Coach Smith considered Joel Rathe most improved player and Kent Salisbury, who played center field, the most valuable player. Kent earned Second Team All-Conference Honors. 1 The rest of the team looks on as Mr. Smith makes a pitching change. 2 With the sun in his eyes, Randy Wheeler is amazed that he still caught the ball. 3 Dean Wise watches the follow through to make sure it's a strike.

During the first few weeks, most players complained of sore muscles, jammed fingers, floor burns, and hearing Coach Luloff s famous words, Bump, set, spike! over and over. Even though the teams lost a few matches, most thought volleyball had been a learning experience that they had enjoyed. The teams ended the season with a record of — Varsity, 2-14; Junior Varsity, 3-8; Freshman, 4-5. As one player commented, Even though we didn't win many games, the seniors always perked everyone up on the way home.” 1 Allison Baugher makes a good set so Lisa Weber, Number 13, can spike it over. 2 Lisa Clubine hopes her bump is good so Shelly Schulte and Kelly Nelson can play a set and spike. Volleyball 75 The two featured football players, Trent Graham and Kent Salisbury, provided the senior leadership which every team needs. They helped keep the enthusiasm up, although the team wasn’t in the win column. They both played well throughout the year. At year’s end Trent was voted Second Team All Cedar Wapsie Conference as a defensive back.

The football team possessed many characteristics of an excellent team, such as hard work, cooperation, positive attitude, and pride that kept the fans enthusiastic about the season. When asked about this year’s football team, Coach Bailey replied: Describing this year’s team could be done very easily by saying — Our players had a lot of desire, very excellent attitudes, and efforts. We lacked size in our line and backfield, plus experience, which is always a key in the Cedar Wapsie Conference. Our scores were never in the win column, but these kids never gave up on trying.” All in all, the football team had determination to work up to their potential throughout the season. 1 A group of Raiders give Al Averhoff a pat on the back after an excellent play. 2 Jeff DeLong really puts his foot into it against Wapsie for the longest punt of the year. 2 Football 77 The 1982-83 girls’ basketball season began with a start of two-hour practices. During practices, the girls worked on new plays and fundamentals. The varsity squad started out their season with a tournament in November. The other teams involved were LaPorte City, Benton Community, and West High. Dunkerton won the first round and had to face West High for the championship. The two teams went into overtime and West High barely won with five points. 1 During the third quarter of the Denver game. Sherry Happel shoots from way out.

Carla Clubine played in the guard court in the 1982-83 girls' basketball season. This was Carla's third year for playing on the Varsity Team. When asked how she felt about the Varsity Team, Carla replied. When we decided that we were going to beat a team, got the momentum going, and didn’t give up, we usually ended up winning. Coach Thompson commented that he thought Carla was a steady and dependable player and that her leadership was as valuable as her effort on the court. At the end of the season, Carla had received All-State Honorable Mention in the Guard Court. Girls' Basketball 79 1 Varsity Coach Thompson commented, There was a steady improvement throughout the season. He noticed the team committed fewer turnovers and developed a taste for winning. When asked about the junior varsity, Coach Luloff replied that she had seen steady improvement. The varsity ended their season with a conference record of 7-7, while the junior varsity ended with 4-8. Lisa Weber and Carla Clubine received the honor of first Team All-Conference, while Allison Baugher was given Honorable Mention All-Conference. The Des Moines Register noted Carla Clubine for Second Team All Northeast Iowa and Lisa Weber received Special Mention. 1 Denise Mixdorf waits for the jump ball against a Jesup J-Hawk, who is, in Denise's opinion, five inches taller!” 2 During the Jesup game, Deb Maurer waits for Janine Clubine to inbound the ball so she can move it up to the forward court. 3 These freshman girls, Kris Schulte, Ja-neen Brown, Lisa Knebel, Sherrie Regenold, and Robi Nesbit, enjoy being friends and teammates.

During the Denver game. Chris helped Dunkerton win 57-54 with a last-second three-point shot, just as the buzzer rang. Boys' Basketball 81 An Exciting Shot The varsity basketball team finished the season with an over-all record of 9-12. This was a rebuilding year with many players gaining the needed experience for a winning basketball team. The seniors added the needed leadership as well as contributing greatly in the games. The highlights of the season were: beating Denver with a last-second shot and beating North Tama and Don Bosco to reach the sectional finals. Coached by Terry Darland, the junior varsity team finished their season with a 5-5 record. In the words of Matt McIntosh, “Although it was hard adjusting to a new coach, it was a learning experience. I enjoyed playing j. v. basketball. 1. Trying to settle down the team, Al Averhoff sets up the play against South Winn. 2. Basketball is definitely Chris Wittenburg's sport. 3.

They taught the elementary students how to yell and do cheers so they could perform at the half-time of a basketball game. Also during basketball season, the cheerleaders sold Raider T-shirts to raise money for new uniforms. 1 To raise money for new uniforms next year Kathy Kajewski, and Candy Magee, get up early to sell donuts and juice to the student body. 2 Right after tryouts, the new cheerleaders win a trophy and spirit stick at a UNI cheerleading clinic. 3 During the cheerleaders' Imitation of the football team.

The girls' team beat the women teachers 42 to 40, and the boys' team won 52 to 51. The Dunkerton Education Association sponsored the game to fund a scholarship they gave to a senior. About 28 teachers participated in either the game or the pep meeting. During this pep meeting, male members of the faculty dressed up as cheerleaders to perform cheers in support of their team. Ten alumni came back to participate in the game also. Some memorable moments that the crowd of around 300 witnessed were: Alumni Kenny Kuenstling became the mystery player on the women’s team, the teachers brought Norm Clubine out of the crowd to guard his daughter Carla, and Bryan Speed made a 3-pointer that put the game in overtime. Faculty-Student Game 87 Although changing coaches in the middle of the season put the team at a disadvantage, they finished the season with flying colors. At the meets, the team took first place at the Janesville Invitational, second at the Dunkerton Relays, and seventh out of 18 at the District meet. Four team members — Al Averhoff, Trent Graham, Darin Tisue, and Jon Hruska — qualified for state in three events. Although only 14 students went out, their hard work made up for small numbers. 1 At the Raider Relays, Trent Graham hands off to Jeff DeLong after running the first leg of the 880 relay. 2 Jim O'Donnell's stamina makes him the perfect candidate for the mile run. 3 Edging all opponents, Darin Tisue takes first place in the 220 dash.

Al Averhoff, Jon Hruska, Darin Tisue, and Trent Graham all went to the State Track meet this year. At the meet, Darin Tisue finished sixth in the 200 meter dash with a time of 23.2 seconds. All four guys, as a 400 meter relay team, worked together to finish in third place with a time of 44.34 seconds, a new school record. Boys' Track 89 1 While at the Conference meet, Julie Campbell jumps 14'6 , and later goes on to Districts to jump 15'1V4 . 2 At the District meet, Chris Smith and Linda McLaury qualify for the finals in the 880 relay but do not place. This year the Girls’ Track team chose Julie Maurer as their most valuable athlete. Julie found out late in the year that she enjoyed distance running. One day she entered the two mile run and came in second place. From that day on she began running from three to six miles a day during practice. The reward for all of her effort came on the last day of the season. Julie set a school record and won the two mile run at the Conference Track meet at Jesup. 2 Top Personal Goals 90 Girls' Track Front Row: Linda McLaury.

The thing that many of the girls found out was that winning isn’t everything, but self-improvement and topping personal goals is. The year was fun for everyone. Some thought that clowning around with teammates was the most enjoyable while others appreciated meeting and making friends at track meets. In three events a record was either set or tied. Julie Maurer set a school record in the two mile run, and Carla Clubine tied a school record in the high jump and went on to win the event at the Conference Track meet. In the 440 relay, a school record was set by Linda McLaury, Julie Campbell, Lisa Knebel, and Bonita Speed. 1 After the 440 dash, Gretchen Schiller removes her tennis shoes to rest her tired feet. 2 During the muddy track meet at Jesup. Julie Hanson throws the shot put 25 feet. Her farthest throw ever was 27 feet. Girls'Track 91 Getting involved in school clubs with others for a common goal or satisfies the need for a creative outlet. Clubs provide a place to test abilities and try new things. Involvement stretches the imagination. It’s a chance to work a chance to work alone to excel personally. Often, getting involved in a club will lead to an important life ambition. 1 Making a better float than the freshmen and sophomores is the goal of Diane Harvel. Jerry Quint. Doug Miller, and Kevin Lockey. as they decorate the junior-senior float. 2 Highest Honor Bestowed A nation-wide organization has found its way to Dunkerton. The high school received its charter in January, and members in the Natinal Honor Society were announced on the morning of May 9. The induction ceremony was May 17. Four members of the sophomore class, eight juniors, and eleven seniors were inducted into the National Honor Society. To be a member in the National Honor Society, a student must have an 88% scholastic average. Three other things taken into consideration for membership were service, leadership, and character. The faculty voted on the candidates. Membership in the National Honor Society is the highest honor that can be given to a high school student. It recognizes the all-around outstanding student. 1 At the National Honor Society members are announced during a morning assembly, Sherry Happel's. Al Averhoff's. and Lisa Clubine's faces register everything from surprise to pride. 2 After lighting the candle of character, Sandy Waschkat tells what the candle means according to the National Honor Society. 3 Front Row: Lori Happel, Greg Jensen, Denise Mixdorf, Amy Shatzer.

One of the most successful was the annual fruit sales. For each box over 10 that a member sold, he received $5.50. Billy Schares sold the most boxes of fruit. After all expenses were paid, the earnings totaled $211.46. Also successful was the beans, which yielded 52 bushels an acre. 1 At the annual FFA Banquet, Larry Seeman, Mike Hiller, and Nathan Mixdorf relax after a delicious meal at the Red Fox Inn. 2 The FFA Sweetheart candidates and their escorts await the decision of the Sweetheart. 3 Sophomore Amy Shatzer is crowned this year's FFA Sweetheart. 94 FFA Mr. Bare Ends 17 Years of Service Another popular event was the FFA Banquet, where awards were given to deserving members. Also, out of four candidates — Lisa Clubine, Kathy Kajewski, Amy Shatzer, and Robi Nesbit — the FFA chose Amy Shatzer as their sweetheart. This banquet was particularly special since the advisor, Mr. Bare was retiring. The FFA awarded Mr. Bare a plaque for his 17 years of distinguished service. 1 Front Row: Trent Graham. Billy Schares.

Officers for the club were: President: Bill Faust, Vice President: Carla Clubine, Secretary-Treasurer: Deb Maurer. In appreciation of their services, teachers gave their S.E.S. helpers a party on October 19. They held their party at Happy Joe’s in Waterloo, and all members enjoyed eating pizza, playing video games, and having fun with friends and teachers. 1 One of Bill Faust's S.E.S. duties for Mrs. Schmidt is keeping the birthday board updated. 2 Front Row: Bill Faust.

The Spanish Club was involved in many other activities, also. In October, before a volleyball game, they held a potluck in the lunchroom. 1 As part of the Christmas party, Jenny Quint readies the Santa pinata for the beating it will get. 2 During a tour of the Waterloo Rec Center's exhibit on Mexican culture, Angie Frost enjoys the beauty of the early Mexican jewelry. 3 Before going to admire the Mexican culture, the Spanish club, including Randy Nesbit and Amy Shatzer, must first get in the mood by eating some Mexican food at the Taco House. 3 98 Spanish Club 1 Viva el club de espanol 1 Senora Cleveland obviously enjoys a good Spanish meal. 2 Front Row: Secretary — Linda McLaury, Senora Cleveland.

To prepare members for the year, Don Miller, Amy Shatzer, Laurie Weber, Randy Nesbit, and Dean Wise, went to Ames to learn about different fund-raising activities. Also, Julie Robinson, llene Canfield, Dean Wise, Amy Speer, Allison Baugher, Amy Shatzer, Kim Watson, Kris Schulte, and Mr. Smith represented our school at UNI in a student senate workshop. 1 Coach Norvell and the freshmen plan their strategy against the sophomores before the powder-puff game. 2 Front Row: Mr. Smith.

Student Senate PAGE MISSING PAGE MISSING To finance the yearbook, the staff sold ads in September. On ad-selling day, during first hour, the staff gathered in the yearbook room to hear Mrs. Schmidt’s tips on selling ads. Afterwards, in their Sunday best, the staff set out, hopeful and ambitious, ready to beat their $4,000 goal. Unfortunately, it rained. Not only did it rain, but it poured, drenching all yearbook members from head to toe. Not a single member turned back, though. Their persistence (and maybe just a little sympathy from customers) helped them to pass their goal, despite the bad economy. 1 Thi group of four, Denise Smithling, Craig Tlx, Kelly Stumme, and Michelle LaPole, seem to have found something interesting within the pages of the yearbook. 2 Sandy Waschkat makes use of the autograph party by signing a yearbook while Cassie Mixdorf decides just to look at the new yearbook. 3 Looking at the 1981-82 Student Senate pages, Michelle Zabel points out a certain picture to Lori Happel. Yearbook Staff 103 2 This year, the staff sponsored several fund-raising events. They held a dance the first week of school and at Christmas. On October 22, the staff held a successful autograph party for students to pick up their 1982 yearbook and sign each other’s yearbooks. They sold pop, sandwiches, and old yearbook pictures. Students enjoyed the party because, according to Shelly Schulte, “It was a good opportunity to have friends sign your yearbook, and it was fun to look at all the old pictures.” 1 In one of the many popular hand wrestling matches, Tom Kalenske knocks Brent Spier out of the tournament. 2 Lending a more authentic look to the beach party, a bunch of guys attempt many times to build a pyramid. 3 Gutsy Larry Seemann chugs down a can of root beer in four seconds. 104 Yearbook Staff Surf’s Up!! To promote 1983 yearbook sales, the yearbook staff sponsored another popular event. On March 11, the staff helped students to forget the cold weather and enjoy some sunshine” at a beach party. Students came to school in shorts, ready to play beach games, visit booths, and win prizes. The students felt that the party was a nice change from regular classes. Allison Baugher said, “I thought it was really nice for a change of pace. Leave it to Mrs. Schmidt to always get something going. 1 Madame Harkonl informs Lisa Gallmeyer that her future will involve a long, successful college career. 2 Laurie Weber supervises the messy Surprise Booth as Krystal Weideman and Lori Rutter try to feed each other the surprise, which is chocolate covered marshmallows. 3 The Yearbook Staff runs through the halls yelling surf's up to gather all the Junior and Senior High students for the beach party. Yearbook Staff 105 Student life is ever changing. The economy is a major factor in their life, but no matter how it stands, there are always fads and fashions. Variety in a student's life comes from the many different fashions. Some people try to keep up with the changing styles while others opt for a more classic look. Clothes aren’t everything, though. Dancing, cruising, going to movies and going shopping are all popular forms of entertainment. Watching the opposite sex also ranks high on most students’ lists of fun things to do. In general, Students like to do almost anything to keep their minds off school. 1 Renae DeLong spends some of her spare time working at McDonalds, a job she's had for over two years. For Fun With little money to pay for the - high price of gas, few students Icruise University Avenue anymore. More often, they like to stick close to home. Staying close to home used to mean sitting around watching television, or running the streets of Dunkerton causing trouble. But now, the town has opened two new arcades, Frenchies” and “The Hangout,” where kids can meet their friends, play popular computer games, and, more importantly, stay out of trouble. For those who like to venture out of town once in a while, Cedar Falls has opened the Second Base,” another favorite student hangout. At the “Second Base,” the kids can hear their favorite bands and DJ's play music, dance, and meet students, ages 14 to 18, from many other schools. 1 At the Second Base, in Cedar Falls. Dunkerton students enjoy dancing to Edge and mingling with students from other schools. 2 On mini course day, a reluctant Darrin Speed sits still while a beauty school student updates his hairstyle by cutting it above the ears. No Money These days, kids start to feel the economy crunch early. Few students' parents still hold jobs, or jobs that pay well enough to cover life's necessities, let alone luxuries. Cutting luxuries means cutting allowances. To compensate, more and more, students have taken up part-time jobs, rather than the usual summertime only detassling work. Even with their part-time jobs, kids still feel the squeeze of inflation and declining value of the dollar” when they buy their own clothes and pay for their own entertainment. Another way the kids feel the effects of the poor economy is with the increasingly common practice of dad leaving home to work down south, leaving mom and the kids to take care of the house. Most parents would like to take the whole family and move to where the work is, but the high mortgage and interest rates make selling the house impossible. So, only dad leaves. It’s “In” The new wave look hit even Dunkerton this year. Both girls and guys cut their hair above ears on the sides, leaving it long in the back. Some girls even came to school in knickers, but none were brave enough to wear the newly back-in-style mini-skirt to school. More down-to-earth, the prairie look went over big. Girls paired lacy, ruffly old style western shirts with full denim skirts and cowboy boots. Some of the skirts were even made so that an inch of a slip hung out the bottom. But in spite of these new fashions many students held out, contented to wear their good ole faded jeans and comfortable T-shirts, which are always in fashion.

But more and more of them are finding it out again. The television pictures of empty grocery shelves in Poland can’t help but bring home to consumers how fortunate they are. They'may never realize the toil, the frustrations, the grief and sometimes the disappointments that go into making sure our citizens stay well-fed. But then, few of them will ever know the pride in a row of corn breaking through the soil, the pleasure in watching a new calf nurse for the first time. Or the satisfaction in seeing a youngster take the wheel of a tractor by himself. Despite today’s trials, let us not forget the heritage that is American agriculture.

With all this activity arises a new sense of opportunity to excel in sports, to achieve academically, and to show school spirit. 1 Jumping for a good cause, Angie Miller participates in the Jump rope For Your Heart. 1 Pride in Print The junior high started a newspaper in November of this year. The newspaper, published three times throughout the year, printed jokes, poems, editorials, sports, fashions, and junior high activity articles. Designing the newspaper’s cover, writing articles, and choosing the best articles to print kept the editors — Becky Magee, Niki Vaughn, and Julie Anderson — busy. The junior high students felt that having a newspaper was helpful in keeping them up-to-date on junior high activities. But the true purpose of the newspaper, as Mrs. Sapp said, was “to develop writing skills, prepare students for a high school newspaper, and give them pride in putting out a good product.” 1 Editing the Junior High News, means extra time for Becky Magee, Julie Anderson, and Niki Vaughn.

At the beginning of the year, Mr. Thomas started with the eighth grade, teaching them the basics of using a computer through math games. A few interested students even learned how to write a simple program. Although not until the end of the year, the seventh grade also learned about the computer with games. The main purpose of acquainting students with computers, as Mr. Thomas said, was to familiarize students with some of its basic functions for high school.

The seventh and eighth grade students jumped rope to raise money for heart disease research. Each and every person managed to jump rope for three hours. Everyone was exhausted, but the money was collected for a good cause. A junior high dance this year was highlighted by a new event. Royalty was voted on and elected: King — Chris Stumme, Queen — Lindy Sage, Prince — Brett McMahon, and Princess — Kim Reil. 1 Suggesting that jumping rope isn't all hard work. Renee Faust smiles for the camera. 2 Showing his concerns for the fight against heart disease, Jason Dettmer concentrates on jumping rope. 3 Junior High Royalty — Front Row: Chris Stumme. Lindy Sage.

At the meeting, they learned the general operation of a student senate meeting such as calling the meeting to order, and motioning for the adjournment of a meeting. Another favorite activity was Teacher Appreciation Week. Although the student senate worked hard, they enjoyed their work. 1 The double duty of selling concessions and playing basketball keeps Melony Foss and Kim Reil busy. 2 Relaxing after a student senate meeting are Kim Reil and a Peet Junior High Student. 3 Front Row: Mr. Murphy, Swen Arwine, Rhonda Reil, and Michelle Brasch.

In fact, when the choruses performed their favorite song, Fame, also the show's theme, Mrs. Nichols had to tell them to pipe down because of their over excitement. The band, too, showed their enthusiasm with their beat-filled numbers like “Grandfather's Clock. 1 Michelle Brasch, Alicia Zabel, Lindy Sage, Becky Wendt, Candy Magee, Angie Miller, Ronda Reil, and Tara Schroedeimeir overcome their battle with the nerves to harmonize perfectly in American Music.” 2 Rachel Miller, Julie Fettkether, and Jenny Clubine pay tribute to a favorite movie. E.T., with the theme song Heartlight.” 2 136 Talent Show “Fame” On February 10, the junior high took the show to Denver Middle School with just as much excitement. They even substituted three Denver guys’ names in the You’ll Certainly Die skit. No wonder the Denver students received the show so well! 1 Hard work and four year of piano lessons pay off in Cindy Ohrt's beautiful piano solo, Annie's Song. 2 In the song Chile Today Hot Tamale. 3 Fever Ronda Reil works hard to concentrate on my music so I can keep a steady beat.” 3 According to Kelcy Shepherd, she and Dee Clubine picked their solo It's Raining Again because we heard it on the radio on the way to the music store and liked it. 4 In the hilarious skit You'll Certainly Die valley girls Kim Brown, Lynne Gallmeyer, and Karen Gallmeyer die at the sight of the world’s ugliest woman. 4 Talent Show 137 Best Year Yet The junior high band had one of its best years yet. They participated in the Christmas Concert, Spring Band Concert, the Arbor Day program, the Junior High Talent Show, and over 15 junior high pep meetings. Through working together in rehearsals and practicing hard individually, the group as a whole showed that practice makes perfect. The talents of each individual were very important to the group. This year Mrs. Pohlman chose band members of the year based on participation, cooperation, and talent. The eighth grade member was Rhonda Reil; the seventh grade member was Julie Anderson. Before leaving as band director, Mrs. Pohlman wished continued success to all band members because they will be Dunkerton’s future high school band leaders.” 1 Front Row: Laraine Stewart.

One hour each week, Mrs. Nichols required all members to meet so they could practice — hard. The first battle was learning to sing harmony. Chorus members felt that learning to sing different parts was quite difficult. Then came the technical aspects of vocal music. The members worked on rhythm ‘'muddles” to learn how to keep a beat, besides practicing the breath-taking diaphragm exercises to improve their breathing techniques. All of this hard work paid off, though. The choruses “showed off their high achievement in these areas with a superb vocal section at the Junior High Talent Show. 1 On the eighth grade’s record day in chorus.

Football .Jesup and Wapsie Victories are favorites The seventh grade football team, consisting of an unusually large number of 17, ended the 1982 season with a 1-3 record. Although the team wasn’t large physically, Mr. x Lienau said that these players showed great potential during the season. A favorite game of both the players and the coach was the team’s victory at Jesup. Billy Rolison scored five touchdowns to bring home a score of 36-6. The eighth grade football team worked well together and matured over the eight weeks. The team’s season ended with a record of 1-3 with 1 tie. One of their favorite games was the Wapsie Valley game. They were the first team to score against Wapsie all season. Their best game was the Tripoli game where they played well and Scott Schulte scored a touchdown in the last minute which helped them gain a victory. 1 Looking toward quarterback Troy Neil, Scott Schulte checks for a pass. 2 In an attempt to run for a touchdown, Troy Neil zig-zags across the field. 3 Heavily studying all options, the Raiders decide on a play. 4 Craig Watson and a teammate show their approval of their successful play by giving a high-five. J.H. Football 141 Early Hours This year basketball meant a lot of dedication and patience to the thirty junior high girls that went out. Players, managers, and coaches had to get up early in the morning in order to get to practice on time. Practice, starting at 6:30, usually consisted of dribbling, passing and shooting drills; sprints; and scrimmages. The season was split again this year. In split season, the girls take the first 8-9 weeks and the boys take the last 8-9 weeks. 1 Coach Smith calmly tells his eighth grade team what they should do differently. 2 7th — Front Row: Julie Heim, Rachel Schiller.

Girls' Basketball On October 20, the girls put their hard work and dedication to the test — playing Tripoli. Neither team won, but their defeat didn't dampen their enthusiasm. Here's what some of them thought about basketball: Cindy Ohrt — I learned to be a good sport; and even if we didn’t win all of the time, we should never quite trying our hardest. Tammy Mauer — I liked the competition.” Melody Foss — It doesn't matter if you win or lose, it’s how you play the game. 1 Becky Magee quickly retrieves and gains control of the ball. 2 Going up for the shot, Kim Bohneman jumps the highest over a Wapsie opponent. 3 Missy Duffy attempts a quick steal. 4 8th — Front Row: Alicia Zabel.

Girls' Basketball 143 A Great Year The junior high cheerleaders sold Life-Saver Lollipops to raise money for the emblems on their uniforms. Also, they attended a cheerleading clinic where they learned new cheers and skits. Throughout the year, the cheerleaders realized they had a great responsibility, harder than most people thought. Their sponsor, Mrs. Klinefelter commented, “I'm really proud of the girls and hope they continue to be interested in cheerleading and showing terrific school spirit!” All in all, the junior high cheerleaders had a great year! 1 Football Squad — Front Row: Tara Schroedermeier.

Cheerleading Jr. High Wrestling 145 Season Ended Well This year, Coach Norvell enabled junior high students to go out for wrestling. Although the turnout was not large, this season went well. They wrestled against Jesup, Janesville, and Denver twice and Plainfield once. Larry Meskimen ended the season with the best undefeated record of two pins. The team commented mostly on the shortage of members, but they said it was a good experience and they enjoyed the season. 1 Everyone works hard to get In shape by doing sit-ups during practice. 2 “I'm out weighed but I’ll pin him anyway” says Larry Meskimen. 3 Front Row: Doug Roeding, Mike Engelbrecht.

Doing Well — Getting Better The junior high boys' basketball season was a learning experience for everyone. They worked hard and improved a lot through the year. The seventh grade’s record was 4-5. The eighth grade's record was 3-6. Coach Lienau said, They all played very well and the eighth grade should be a big help next year. 1 Darren West goes up to block a shot against a J-Hawk. 2 Coach Pohlman gives the team a few pointers before the game. 3 Larry Meskimen jumps up to get the team off to a good start. 4 While under pressure, Troy Neil drives for the basket. 4 3 146 Jr. High Boys' Basketball 1 Seventh grade — Front Row: Bill Rolison, Brent McMahon, Jeremie Nagel, Larry Meskimen, Mark Knebel.

This medley consisting of Scott Schulte, Chris Stumme, Craig Watson, and Troy Neil, placed either first or second in each meet throughout the whole year. Coach Westervelt took over in the middle of the season for Coach Thompson who began coaching the high school boys’ track team. Coach Westervelt’s comments on this year’s team were, “I have enjoyed working with this jr. high boys' team this year. In doing so, I have recognized a few that have the ability to be all around athletes.” 1 “Giving it his all,” Larry Meskimen pushes to place in the 880 medley. 2 Dan Malin hands off to Carl Meskimen during the mile relay. 3 With teammate Bob Lanigan not far behind, Joey Fettkether wins the 200 meter sprint.

Boys'Track Future Runners Lookin Good The jr. high girls' team has been an outstanding team this year. They did very well at all six of their meets, placing second at Tripoli, second at Fredericksburg, and third at their meet here. The highlight of the season was the first place finish of the seventh grade girls at Jesup. Coach Dan Smith said: “The girls have worked hard and really enjoyed themselves. 1 Hefting the (hot put at Jesup, Ronda Rell is determined to beat that Jesup girl. 2 Front Row: Rachel Schiller, Becky Magee, Kim Reil.
