wl Pam’s job as editor included helping Jackie Bauer. Annual f | Ron Vaske, photographer. New Looks And Ideas Kristy, Shelly, Gayle and Jackie look over pic- tures. This year started out very slow but it progressed rapidly. Our senior editor this year was Pam Rochel and co-editor was Cathy Nelson. The yearbook took on a new photographer, Ron Vaske, eighth grade, who was a tremendous help to the staff and spent many long hours developing our pictures. Mrs. Al- berta Moore was our advisor. We decided we needed a change for our cover so we went with maroon and ivory. The yearbook will be judged at the State Publications Contest in the fall at SDSU. Kristy, Shelly and Gayle can’t seem to agree. Back row: (1-r) Ron Vaske, Jackie Bauer, Dorothy Gehhart, Gayle Heesch, Jeff Rykhus, Shelly Jensen.

Football Cheerleaders Keeps Spirit Up! Memories The cheerleaders were chosen by the student body and faculty in the spring of 1980. New adviser, Mrs. Karen Boyd brought many new ideas, cheers, and routines to the cheerleaders. A lot of hard work, long hours of practice, extra imagination and dedication were needed to make this year a success. There are many memorable moments of the games and of the exciting events that took place with them. Some of the highlights include: the girls basketball squads led the Elks spirit right up to the district championship game, the football cheerleaders hosted homecoming and when they were tackled in the Colman-Elkton game, and the boys basketball squads performing at the districts. All in all it was an exciting year that will be re- membered by all. Tough game, huh? No! No! Clap in time Dorothy. You’re supposed to cheer Karen. Shanana (FFA boys) decided to visit Elkton.
