That phrase is more than the motto of Fairfield's fine football team; it's the foundation that everything at FHS is built on. We're proud of our school, and for good reason GOOD TIMES 1. Homecoming's Hats Off to the Trojans Day finds Chief Brian Hill roaming the halls. 2. After participating in Hawkeye Band Day in Iowa City, Milt Jackson and Mike Septer catch up on their sleep. 3.

People, athletics, drama, music, friendships We've got a lot to be proud of Athletics are a big part of the Trojan pride syndrome, and they should be. Our foot ball team had still another winning season, and the dedicated crosscountry runners saw one of their teammates qualify for state. Winter sports were at their all time best, perhaps, and several track team members qualified for state, as did our Trojan baseball team Trojan pride extends into our fine arts programs as well. We're proud to say that our speech team dominates state competition. Our choir and band are top rate; this year saw another vocalist qualify for all- state chorus I. Hey, who's that new chick over there in the blue? Dave Brumm and Wayne Swafford catch up on some bird-watch- ing at registration.

Learning, after all, is the reason we're here. With our variety of courses, you name it, and we have a chance to learn about it. Every FHS graduate has a chance to go on to bigger and better things after his education at Fairfield High More than anything else, we're proud of our people at FHS. The people we meet in high school will be some of our best friends for life. The friendships, the experiences, the good times — all are a part of FHS. Trojan pride? You bet! And we're proud of everything about our school. ; 1.

STUDENT LIFE We've had some great times in our high school years - like the night we rode around the square in Buck's pick 'em up truck 200 times singing Luckenback. Texas'' over and over again. It seems like when we weren't in school or at a game on Friday night, we were scooping the loop or hanging out at The Hut. Of course, there was Rocky II and several other flicks at the Co-Fd to occupy our time. tew. Or how about the time we piled eleven guys in a Mustang to play chase out to Mr. Quicks after hand practice. I he f ly People. hall games, parties, dates, just relaxing with the guys (and a healthy 7 and 7) or talking to the gals, or just bangin' 'round, it's been real. I he things we've been through, the friendships we've developed, the heart breaks and making up. all these arc a part of life at FHS, and a part of the Trojan pride that affects each of us. Well, later, guvs! cah. much! 1. Showing cjives is j day-long JCtivity for 4-H and FFA members at Ag Show. 2. State Dress Revue finalist, Laura Hipp, left, and county level runner-up.

Mark Goehring relieves his sheep of a hot-weather burden. 14 JEFFERSON COUNTY AG SHOW From the excitement of the opening day of the Ag Show to the joy felt at being chosen to represent the county at the State Fair, it is apparent that 4-H is more than just winning a ribbon. It is a lasting fellowship with opportunities for innu- merable personal achievements. Sweat, oil, and a sore back. These things are all synonomous with shearing sheep. Mark Goehring has been shearing sheep for less than a year, but he is very experienced. The most sheep Mark has ever sheared at one time was 35. Mark first became interested in shearing sheep due to the shortage of shearers in this area. There are only two, and one of them is not doing much work due to poor health. Fie has forty-eight head of sheep himself, so Mark decided to take a class at the Hawkeye Institute. The session lasted three days, and he plans to attend it again. Mark has purchased all the necessary equipment and is very enthusi- astic about shearing. When asked how he felt about shearing sheep, Mark said, You have to be in good health. It's hard work, but I like it. The young farmer recommends a definite liking for the animals if one wants to shear. Mark has always enjoyed sheep. He has shown his sheep many places, travelling to anywhere from the Jefferson County Ag-Show to Louisville, Kentucky. Every year he places a little more consistently at the top, striving for his goal to place higher and higher. Mark has found sheep to be a very profitable venture. In addition to shearing, he started last summer to buy the wool he has sheared and sell it to a dealer. Mark also raises purebred Sufflock and sells them for breeding purposes. He tries to raise better quality stock each year. Mark is a senior this year and is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Raymond Goehring, R.R.4, Fairfield. He hopes to go to Iowa State University and eventually become a veterinarian. His background of working with animals will certainly be helpful in such a profession. Mark's job is an unusual one, but it must be very dear to him, for he doesn't seem to mind the sweat, oil or sore back that go with it. Your adorable horse is called overweight by a less than sensitive judge; your sheep gets away from you in front of 200 people; your cow kicks a spectator; or your market litter of pigs decides to pick a fight among themselves as they are about to be judged. As a 4-H member who has ever participat- ed in the Jefferson County Junior Ag Show, you are apt to be able to place yourself in any of these embarrassing moments. A senior 4-H member has often spent as many as nine years improving such skills as grooming animals, sewing a prom dress, cooking pretzels, refinishing an antique bench from Grandma's attic, or dabbling in macrame or sand art. What- ever the project, the hours spent planning, developing, fin- ishing, and showing are bound to bring about feelings of accomplishment. 15 JUNE, JULY, AND AUGUST 752 W m oAV «VA )V VMMl vv v«v r V 7o; 1. Pedal Power is the name of the game during the 7th Annual bike ride across Iowa (Ragbrai). 2. Larry Sheffler spends some time soaking in the sun. 3. Making a big splash, Laura Allen takes some time out at the swimming pool. 4. Kurt Edeker takes time-out to enjoy the sun and water. 5. Taking a swing, Gary Higgins spends a summer afternoon on the tennis courts. The three short months between the final class dismissed in June and the first Good morning class in August are a time of fun and relaxation. Summer is not only a time for enjoyment, however, but also a learning experience for many youth. The ag show, sports, and maybe a new summer job are unique experiences looked forward to when June draws nearer. Last summer was highlighted by the arrival of the RAGBRAI VII riders who were directed into an excited Fair- field for an overnight stay as part of their route. Summer also provides a time for families to travel and relax with distant friends and relatives. The summer months also give the faculty and staff of FHS a chance to relax or maybe further their education. With all these activities going on in the summer, it's no wonder people only grudgingly return in September. The meaning of the phrase, RAGBRAI, was made crystal clear to Fairfielders when the Register's Annual Great Bicycle Ride Across Iowa decended upon them on August 3. This huge conglomeration of bicycle riders, driver, and support and repair van operators are all part of the largest amateur sporting event in the world. The assemblage steadily makes the weeklong trek across Iowa, advancing through both quiet farming communities and bustling cities, while infecting everyone along the route with their spirit and exuberance. 1979 was no exception. For RAGBAI VII, Fairfield had been designated as one of the overnight stops. The first members of the pedal-driven entourage began streaming into town on the morning of August 3, with the last of the riders arriving well after dark. As the riders coasted toa stop, hundredsand hundreds of birghtly colored tents began popping up, eventually forming what appeared to be a vast sea of nylon fabric and rope. The designated camping areas included Chatauqua park, the FHS campus, and the grounds at the junior high. Arriving cyclists were greeted by various groups in the community who pitched in to provide food, drink and entertainment for the riders. The variety of people who participated on the ride was truly amazing. The ranks of cyclists included all kinds of people, from the lean, powerful racers, to the grandfathers with a thick white beard, to the father pulling his small children across the state in a buggy attached to his bicycle. Within this large group, one finds a different motivation for each rider but satisfaction is derived by all who make the journey. Many people in Fairfield and the rest of the state must have wondered what could possibly motivate these masochists to labor up, down, across Iowa on a bicycle. Ridiculous, you might say, No possible reason to do such a thing. Where else can you form a kind of brotherhood with thousands of other humans? How else can you travel silently alongside forests and fields, and taste the morning air, and exchange greetings with previous strangers? How else can you really get a sense of the people and places of the great state of Iowa RAGBAI? Cast Medea Nurse Jason .......... Aegeus Creon ..........

Clark Smith .............................Richard Hadley ..................................Kurt Edeker Cindy Nelson, Tina Ankenbaur, Phyllis Young, Kelly Aistrope Kim Kleemeyer, Jan Schillerstrom Slave .................................................................Nina Bussey Boys Brent Weber and Justin Becker 1. Looking without fear into their mad mother's eyes, Brent Weber and Justin Becker steal the show. 2. A typical night in the lighting booth for Janette Frieberg consists of Welch's grape soda, homework, a good book, and last but not least, following the script. 3. With the blood of her innocent children on her body, Medea stares trance like into space. 4. The light dock is not an ideal place for carrying on a phone conversation, especially during a performance. 5. With maddening thoughts rushing through her sick brain, Medea's nurse does her best to comfort her. 6. Painting pillars are Clark Smith and Dave Riley. This was one of the many tasks that went into creating the set for Medea. 18 MEDEA Medea, a classic Creek tragedy, is not normally attempted by a high school theatre, right? Wrong! Mr. Brigham had faith that his cast of amateurs could do it, and do it well. His gamble paid off and Medea was a success. At times though, success was questionable. There were a few minor mishaps, such as the night Tina Ankenbauer decided to go to the hospital, or the night Mr. B. was playing games on stage and dropped a fifty pound stage weight on his foot. Another time found Clark Smith portraying King Arthur instead of Jason by running his sword through the stones on the set. Despite all the accidents, opening night came and went with- out a hitch. There were definitely two actors who stole the show. Justin Becker and Brent Weber were the two elemen- tary school students who portrayed Medea's children. The moments the cast spent with these boys were priceless. Few will forget the time that Justin stopped the scene by asking, Could we take a break, NOW?!! or when he berated every- one thoroughly for not meeting him at the bus! Brent was always hungry and drove Anne Herr, who played Medea, into hysterics whenever he looked at her with those big blue eyes, and said, Look, Mother! She had trouble adjusting to the thought of killing them. The play is basically about a woman who is cheated upon by her husband. In order to get revenge, she cremates his new bride and father-in-law. To complete her total destruction of Jason she murders their two children stating, I loathed you more than I loved them. Medea's revenge is complete. She leaves Jason broken, friendless, and lost, despised by gods and men. Medea was favored both nights as the audiences were large and everything went smoothly. For a classic normally done by high school students, everything went exceptionally well. The cast was aided by the Intro to Theatre class who helped as crew heads, set builders and other assorted jobs. 19 1. Reigning over the FHS Homecoming festivities were Queen Laura Hipp and her lovely court. 2. Lighting up the homecoming dance was the responsibility of Dave Riley. 3. Taking top honors in the Homecoming Float contest were the seniors with the theme Plow the Panthers. 4. Dave Laslo holds tight as Amy Holst leans out to put up another ceiling streamer. 5. King of the Field was the theme of the Junior class float. 6. Students gathered on tht spuare for float and hat contest results and a rousing speech by Roy Eubanks. 7. Homecoming festivities ended with the dance. The group Suede provided music. 8. Hat contest entries. HOMECOMING Homecoming brings lo mind rain, cold weather, and the sophomores winning the float competition. Not so this year. The weather was perfect, the seniors produced the winning float, and Trojan spirit and pride prevailed over all. The weeks festivities started on Tuesday with the announce- ment of the Queen candidates. On Thursday, servant day. Student council members carried books, shined shoes, and did various other sundry duties for their masters, members of the football team. The pep rally Thursday night was a great success with a large crowd, despite chilly weather. Laura Hipp was crowned Homecoming Queen amidst cheers and the sound of “Rocky from the Pep Band. “Hats off to Trojans Day proved a great success as many students and teachers donned gaily decorated headwear on Friday. The hat contest entries were judged in areas such as the biggest, most unusual, and the best decorated. Friday's pep rally up town attracted a large crowd of townspeople as well as most of the student body. The seniors triumphed in the float competion with the theme “Plow the Panthers. Later that night the Trojans did plow under the Panthers with a victoriuis score of 15-0. The theme of the Homecoming Dance that followed the game was the “Main Event. This “Main Event of the school year was attended by a large crowd of students and alumni. Music was provided by the group Suede. All in all, Homecoming was a successful event in which all who participated could take pride. 1. The Younkers Train Station is the setting for the exuberant song and dance number, Put on Your Sunday Clothes Z Just give me five minutes of your time and One, two, three - one, two, three presto Barbra Stanley has Clark Smith dancing around the stage. 3. Not without a search warrant! 4. Oblivious to the fact that Clark Smith handed her the hat box, Anne Herr will next appear screaming, There's a man in there. 5. It takes a woman for weaning the Guernsy and clearing the stable, sings the all male chorus. 22 y airfield High School Music and Drama Departments present Thursday, May 8 Triday, May 9 and Saturday.

V HELLO DOLLY Well-Well-Helllllooo Dolly, Well Hello Dolly, it's so nice to have you back where you belong .... The strains of this and other tunes from the Broadway musi- cal, Hello Dolly lifted through the halls of FHS from January until May. Few will forget the near capacity crowds that filled FHS auditorium May 8,9, and 10 or the ravishing praise that echoed for weeks after it was over. But perhaps we should start at the beginning- Meetings were held in early September in order for directors Scott Brigham and Ross Coodell to gage the interest level in putting on a musical. They were pleasantly surprised for the room was full. The show was chosen, scripts and music or- dered, and financial plans were set in motion. The set was designed and redesigned. For a new dimension to FHS audi- torium, Clark Smith and Mark Goehring built a runway around the pit. This allowed action to be brought right into the audiance's lap. It was used for galloping waitors, dancing girls and as a makeshift sidewalk. Not until the middle of February did the real work begin. Auditions were held two nights with call-backs three days after that. For 60-plus people, those days were agonizing. Finally, after much deliberation and careful consideration, the list went up. These people and 24 other bit parts and village people started 8 weeks of dancing, singing, and sweating. No one involved will ever forget sourball sales, nose jokes, dreams of styro- foam, the domino theory (concerning waiters) warmups, cos- tume anxiety, the pit piano, the live elephant, monkey poems, oh shut up , old twirler uniforms, Janette's words of wisdom, breaking the 2nd and 3rd night jinx, the tears be- fore, during, and after each performance, the power that all of us could feel both onstage and off, and the so many moments that can never be described. Hello Dolly brought 35 people together in a way not dreamed possible in the beginning. It started new friendships and strengthened old ones. It also proved to many people in the community that high school people can do a first-rate show that people will talk about for years to come. Hello Dolly was many things to many people, but most of all, it was fun!

The theme of this years Prom, You Decorated My Life , transformed the high school gym into a dreamy land of rainbows, multi-colored balls, streamers, and teardrops. Planning for Prom started early in the year when the junior class realized they didn't have enough funds to pay for the dance. This started a flurry of bake sales. Nightshift- the band played fast music but not blaring, with a few slow songs sprinkled throughout. After the dance, a caravan proceded from the high school to the Co-ED where the Jaycee's in tuxes opened doors and parked cars. The movie, Ice Castles, was everyone's favorite. Almost every girl had tears on her eyes when it was over. After changing out of tuxes, dresses, and shoes that hurt, it was on to the dance. An informal dance at the Elks club, sponsored by the Jaycee's featured John Arveson at the turn- table, and free Pizza Hut pizza. As the night struggled to a close and early morning dawn tinged the sky, the few who actually managed to stay awake straggled home; it was 600 am. 1. Couples dance the night away in long dresses and tuxedos. Teardrops and lily ponds add a touch of romance to the decorations. 2. Junior girls work at centering streamers and rainbows in anticipation of prom festivities. 3. A false ceiling of color, goes over the large gym in prepara- tion for the Prom. 4. Brad Weber and Libra Wagoner exemplify the elegance of the unwritten dress code for prom. 5. The punch bowl was a popular site during the dance. Cookies and punch were furnished by the music auxiliary. 6. Measuring paper for fluffy clouded wands is no easy task for Laura Eland. 25 26 Baccalaureate Baccalaureate services held May 18, included many serious and meaningful tones. Area ministers spoke from various churches, and Wayne Bartruff gave the main sermon, Chance and Choice; Waiting and Winning. Special music entertainment was performed by Peggy Ogden, Don Milholin, and Jay D. Horton. After the Benediction, the evening ended with the recessional played by organist Melissa Bower. 1.

Lining up in the gym before Graduation are Connie Sasseen, Dave Ruby, and Jackie Pogemiller. 9. Giving instructions in the gym is Gordon Brookhart, princi- pal. BACCALAUREATE GRADUATION Graduation Although the day called for showers, the evening of Commence- ment 1980 resulted in warm, sunny weather. Clark Smith and Brad Weber were speakers for the ceremony. Clark used aspects of the class motto which stressed the importance of destiny. Jolly Ann Davidson, of Iowa State Board of Public Instruction, spoke on It's Your Future . She had much enthusiasm and brought out the importance of involvement- Service is the rent you pay for the space you occupy . After returning robes and exchanging tearful goodbyes in the gym, graduates left with many fond memories of their high school years. ORGANIZATIONS Oh, man, I forgot we have that test in biology over the frog tomorrow. By the way where is the deltoid muscle? I'm not really sure, but I think it is in the leg some place. All I can think of is that test in geometry. Why is it that all the teachers plan their tests for the same day? THIS IS DUE FRIDAY AT THE BEGINNING OF CLASS! Sound familiar? Well, like it or not, the reason we go to school is to learn. Sure, concentration lapses have been known to occur. We all have those days when we would 'accidentally' forget about finishing our grammar assignment and chose to watch the squirrels play in the tree tops instead. But you know, we learned quite a bit of neat stuff at FHS. We may not see the importance of polygons and parallelograms, prepositions and partici- ples, but they surely will serve some purpose in later life. Detention, what for? There were problems between teachers and students, but maybe learning how to handle these problems was the most important lesson of them all. And, eventually most of us managed to pick up some info along the line. Academics helped us grow. Industrial Arts Waterbeds and industrial arts went together this year as some advanced woodworking students designed and built their own waterbeds. The machine shop students built weightlift- ing machines for the athletic department. Then, in coopera- tion with the Art Dept., they built a vacuum chamber for the art students. As a part of an electronics project students designed and etched their own printed circuit boards. Mean- while auto mechanics involved its students in a rust proofing process and emphasized brake service. Obviously, industrial arts had several new projects and activities this year. Business Education Besides the basics learned in business classes, several activities gave the students a realistic outlook on future possibilities. The OEA class held a Junior Day to explain the program to its future students, and the Office Procedures and Business Machines classes toured a word processing center. The play A Case of Libel was read in second semesterer business law to show them a lawyer's role in a case. In this class students also acted out a criminal case, creating a realistic learning situation. Students also played the roles of criminals and members of a parole board then tried to determine if crimi- nals were rehabilitated. Using field trips, a Junior Day and play acting, this year's business classes had unique learning experiences. 1. Student teacher, Jan Becker, lectures a Biology class. 2. Not doing his Western Civ. homework is serious offense for Barry Ledger. 3. Showing their Vo-Ag welding techniques are Dale Kreiss and Dean Haney. 4. During an intense ping-pong game in Physical Education Greg Lowenberg follows his shot over the net. 5. Kevin Waugh and Tim Tedrow get some practical experience building a wagon in 2nd year Vo-Ag. 6. We'll get it right with a little practice. Brad Clements, Ron Prill, Mike Septer. 7. Stockbroker, Charles Espy, and the Wall Street Journal attract the attention of Economics students. REALISTIC STUDENTS VISIT MEXICO The building began to sway and plaster began to fall from the ceiling. The closet doors rambled and vacant screams could be heard. This was the scene on June 18, 1979 in the Ambassador Hotel in Mexico City. This earthquake was one of the many experiences shared by the people who went to Mexico last summer. The trip was a 25-day tour sponsored by Northeast Missouri State Univer- sity of Kirksville, Missouri. The 7 students attending from Fairfield were: Steve Berg, Sara DeVore, Debbie King, Kim Marker, Sheri Ryan Moore, Sondra Wasson, and Phyllis Young. Also attending were Mr. and Mrs. Phillip Young and Mrs. Marion DeVore, along with 32 other teachers and students from various places. Some of the sights viewed on the tour were the Mayan Pyramids at Chiden-Itza and Palenque, Aztec Ruins at Teoti- huacan and the historic cities of San Luis Potosi, Delores Hildalgo, and San Miguel de Allende. 4 days in Mexico City highlighted the tour. Sites seen were the National Palace, and Cathedral, the Shrine of Cuadelupe, the Latin American Tower and Chapultepic Park. For relaxation, 4 days were spent in the lovely resorts of Acapulco and Cancun. With nothing but sand, sun and sea; suntans and sunburns were abundant. Another popular place was the Markets. Learning to bar- gain and use the money was an experience for all. Trips home from the Markets were also interesting. Students could be viewed lugging souvenirs of various types. Most popular were hammocks, blankets, and jewelry. More unusual items were Velvet, sequined sombreros, and large wicker baskets. All who went felt the time was enjoyable and well spent. Many would like to return and next time all would be more knowledgable of money, customs and language. -Kim Marker -Sherri Ryan Moore WHEN I LOOK BACK ON JUNIOR YEAR THE FIRST THING THAT COMES TO MIND IS Picking on the scophs. -Dianna Fitzsimmons The times I've had in cheerleading. -Laura Eland Getting together with friends on a Friday night and going to the football game. -Tina Verduzco Flirting with good looking guys at the State Wrestling Meet. -Lisa McCreery ■ Different - 1.

Hunt Fine Arts Both Music Appreciation and Music Humanities classes worked on learning to recognize and enjoy different styles of music from all periods of time. Music Human- ities also covered the art and literature from the different periods. This gave students a broader knowledge of how each period really was. The Art department worked with a variety of projects. Individual projects included photo- graphic silk-screening, which developed darkroom skills as well as artistic skills; different projects in working with plastic, one involving heated plastic, the other liquid plas- tic; metal casting; and the old, but scarce craft of glass- blowing. Fairfield is the only place in the state where it is possible to see this craft of glass-blowing practiced. For a change of pace, the students who know how to work with glass had a workshop for Southeast Area teachers to instruct them in the art. Between music and art classes, many unique and interesting areas were covered. Novel English Variety was the word for English courses this year. Stu- dents spent Fridays reading and commenting on each others papers in Mr. Broz's writing lab class. Not everyone agreed Communication classes video taped their own T.V. com- mercials while Journalism classes interviewed their choice of local celebrities. But, the entire year was far from spent in the schoolroom. The Intro, to Theater class took a trip to Chicago to see the musical Annie; and British Literature students took in a couple of Shakespearean plays. The Taming of the Shrew was in Hancher Auditorian at Iowa City, and the classic Romeo and Juliet was presented in Guthrie theater in Min- neapolis. A larger choice of courses were offered with the new addition of Grammar. This variety of activities and subjects gave students a broad view of the English language and its literature.

NOISY Science Experiments and field trips played a major role in the science department this year. The biology classes followed their usual program of dissecting and plant reproduction. The Anatomy and Physiology classes went to Iowa City in April to tour the health care facilities. Along with the other individual class field trips, there were the trips open to all science students such as visiting the science museums in Chicago and the Springbrook trip where there were outdoor science exper- iences. The highlight for the department as a whole, howev- er, was that Fairfield hosted the Southeast Seven Science Day on April 23rd. It was centered on conservation and science in industry. Approximately 150 students and 10 teachers par- ticipated from schools all over the conference. They divided into groups in which they were able to experience conserva- tion practices and tour some of Fairfield's industries. HOMEWORK?!!??

JUBILANT Why do teachers like FHS? I like the challenge of working with high school students ' — Roxie Skaggs. 'The most rewarding aspect of teaching is the interaction with my students. Working with teenagers keeps me young at heart and eases the drudgery that occasionally accompanies any job. -Cheryl Hos- tetler. I went to college at Parsons and married here. Cities are nice to visit, but I like town. -James Schrum. Fairfield is my home town. I tried living in the larger cities but didn't like it. -Birdie Nelson. I think one thing I enjoy here is that we're given quite a lot of freedom in our approach to biology. I get along well with the administration and other teachers. It's nice to be able to work in an environment that's comfortable. -Don Cummings. I like the freedom to organize my classes and to plan the learning experiences I feel are the most beneficial. The businesses and people in the community have been very helpful as resources. -Diane Hanson. Vo-Ag And Home Ec. The vocational agriculture program worked to prepare each student for a related career such as farming or agri-business. In order to do this classes studied many aspects of farming such as farm construc- tion, weed control, livestock feeding and crop growth. In addition the students learned parlimentary proceedure and farm law. H Z UJ Homemaking courses readied both girls and boys for their futures. Single Living taught self dependency with activities suc as cook- ing, sewing and sorting laundry. Child development conducted a preschool in which the students observed the behavior of children. Other home ec. classes studied the finer points of such topics as nutrition (while enjoying entire meals), textiles and clothing and choosing a proper home and it's furnishings. u UJ D 1.

Along with the usual instruction, extra information has been added — such as new findings on the crashworthiness of cars which tells students which cars are safer in a crash. The seabelt convincer, which simulates a 10 m.p.h. crash, was a special aide in showing the importance of wearing seatbelts to many students. Conserving fuel also became an important issue this year, since the price of gas was so high. Students also found themselves with more studyhalls because smaller cars made it necessary to split up driving classes.

Under the tutelege of Mr. Robert Clocke for her junior and senior years. Sherry has developed the skills necessary for her con- tinued advancement in the field of art. Sherry's interest in art started out as a hobby. Sketching seemed to relax her tenser moments. She commented that her art work is a way of expressing her emotions in a nonverbal manner. Her different moods help create her various projects, with her favorites being abstract and realistic works. Modern art seems to be a contraversy, but not to Sherry. She believes that all modern art has a definite meaning behind it; people just don't understand the motive that the artist is trying to express. Sherry has learned to appreciate the different forms by subscribing to Art News and other artistic publications. Sherry hasn't made any definite plans towards attending a col- lege, but she has narrowed her field to commercial art, a profession that would enable her to utilize her abilities on a regular basis.

Math courses, ranging from Practical and Business Math to Algebra II and Math Analysis, helped students to achieve some necessary knowledge in the field of mathematics with an emphasis on careers and college. A large number of stu- dents enrolled in math courses. PROFOUND For the first time students, beginning with incoming sopho- mores, were required to take one year of math at the high school level. Miss Carlson, new to the staff this year, stated that 'Two contradicting things, how to follow directions, and thinking independently were the most important things which she stressed. 1.

The Spanish classes were taught by Birdie Nelson and Roxie Skaggs. The high- lights of the year included the reenactment of a pilgrimage in fourth year, the third year students' trial, practicing check- ing in at a hotel in second year and all the goodies first year students got to taste. Sue Hansen's French classes also included many interesting topics in their course of study. These involved sampling French foods (which were made in class from scratch) and practicing their French by writing Cheryl Webb, a former French student who was spending her senior year abroad. While doing these things, first year students studied the cultures of French-speaking countries and their affects on our way of life; second year students improved on grammer and speaking while third and ourth year students studied French literature and history. Both departments sent students to All-State Language Day in Pella during November, with our Spanish group placing first in the state and our French group placing second. Then in the spring, several attended the first State Foreign Language (German, French and Spanish) Contest which was hosted by Central College. Entries there included those in speech, mu- sic and cultural dancing. 1. Experience for the future is provided in OE courses, as Teresa Graham discovers through her job. 2.

Ron Hunerdose and Rich Reever were aided by Grey Hagensach in golf. As in the past, several activities were co-educational. The other activities en- joyed first semester included archery and ping-pong, while second semester brought badminton and bowling along with the annual physical fitness unit. Phys-ed. classes came as a welcome relief from the books and assignments that accompanied each school day. 1.

Let's look back on one of our best years ever. The summer of 1979 saw an up and coming girls' softball team show more improvement, and the youth of that team suggested even better things for the future. The boys' baseball team qualified for state for the first time ever, giving wider recognition to the Trojan pride exemplified by all Fairfield High students. The football team rolled on to more victories, and the cross country teams showed true dedication in their hard work in a non-glory sport. But the winter was the time when the excitement climaxed. The 1 rated girls' basketball team came just three points and a lot of tear drops from making their first Sweet Sixteen appearance. And the boys' basketball team won a share of the conference title, going 16-4. The wrestlers and gymnasts capped a big winter with winning records that led into the spring track and tennis season. What a year it was! In the gym, on the mat, on the track or gridiron, Trojan pride was best displayed in our athletes and the support they earned. The Trojan baseball team in 1979 performed as well as one could ask, as the boys broke or tied 10 individual and 10 school records, with a 25-10 record. Coach Jim Petersen's suuad got off to a great start by winning eight of their first games, and tinishedstrong with 10 v ictories in their last regular season contests. with a 7-1 recond while McVVhirter had the most vic jfcpes with a 0-2 record.

After getting off to a disappointing 5-9 start the area girls snapped a six-game losing streak by winning eight of their last nine contests. Coach Bob Bradfield's girls also came on strong in the conference by winning seven of their last league games. The team's most valuable player was senior, Christy John- ston, who hit over .400 tor the second straight year. She also led the team in hits, runs and walks and was named an all- conference short-stop. The addition of freshmen Jolene Horton, who had a 9-5 record, to the Trojanette bullpen helped carry the girls into the sectional tournament. After defeating Pekin in their opener, the area girls were stopped by Cardiani in the semi- finals. Front row: C. Coleman, J. Horton, J. Kinsella, J. Nelson, M. Kurka. Second Row: K. Kleemever, A.

The Fairfield squad finished the season by taking the eighth spot in the class 3A district tournament held in Fairfield. FHS girls' cross country coach Ron Hunerdose was very pleased with the performance of his runners throughout the course of the season as they ended their '79 campaign with a 3-1 dual meet record. Competitiveness seemed to be their top quality as they never seemed to be out-classed in any of their events. Other top runners for the Trojanette squad were seniors Angie Brown and Cindy Hecht, and junior Kris Schaus, all of which coach Hunerdose said performed very well during the meets. The Fairfield girls finished the regular season with a first place finish in the Pekin Invitational led by the running of Angie Brown, Susan Fitzsimmons, and Cindy Hecht. The Fairfield Trojan cross country team concluded i;s 1979 campaign with a 2-3 dual meet record. The season record reflects the problems that the boys' squad had to face with only three returning lettermen: senior Alan Peaslee and ju- niors Tim Oakes and Gary Septer. Joining the returning men were senior Alan Shafer, junior Bill Fye and sophomore Dave Allen, all of which were principal performers during the year. Fairfield head coach Roger McHone's squad was also bols- tered by the running of seniors Mike Perkins, Chris Welling- ton and Phil Tone, junior Gordon Pettit, and freshman Brad Messer. The area boys performed well throughout the course of the season as they continued to put forth great efforts against tougher opponents which had larger numbers of returning lettermen. Front Row: T.

The Fairfield Trojan sophomore football squad concluded it's season with a perfect 8-0 record which included such games as a 44-8 romp over Mt. Pleasant and 45-0 thrashing of the Indians of Oskaloosa. Coach Art Hutton's team averaged 29.6 points per game to just 6.6 points that their young defense allowed as the Tro- jans out-scored their opponents 237-52 over the course of the season. In the rushing department the sophs outgained their foes 1494-729 and in passing yardage the Trojans also had the edge, another big one, 859-359, thus providing an overall game average of 294-136 yards on the season. The Nucleus of the team's defense was Jeff Nance who had nine pass interceptions, three fumble recoveries, and 38 tack- les to his credit. The offensive leadership was shared by three men, quarterback Bill Czerwinski, who pounded out 673 yards on the ground to lead the team in that category, and Milton Jackson, who caught the most passes (20 for 532 yards), was the team's top scorer (74 points with 10 touch- downs), and rushed for 322 yards on just 42 carries, an aver- age of 7.6 yards per carry. 58 Front row: M.

The undefeat- ed regular schedule mark was the Fairfield girls' second straight season without a regular season defeat. They have a 41-game regular season victory streak, and a 22-game streak at home. Senior standout guard Susan Stump was named to the first team of both the Iowa Daily Press Association's and Des Moines Register's All-Star teams. Honorable Mentions were received from both agencies by seniors Angie Brown, Janet Haines and Cindy Hect. Stump and Brown were named Co-MVP's for the season, and Susan also received the Sheila Stoltz Memorial Award for Consis- tently Outstanding Performance. Brown and Hecht shared the 110 Percent Award, and Hecht and Haines shared the Outstand- ing Senior Award. Senior Becky Riepe was named by head coach Dan Breen as Most Improved Player of the squad.

The boys were led on the floor by Milton Jackson, Brian Laux, Mark Wormley, Grant Baumann, and Mark Heston in the five starting roles. The JV Trojanettes trounced their opponents throughout their campaign, in route to a 17-1 overall record. Their only setback came at the hand of Ottumwa in the last contest of the season. The girls, under the direction of coaches Don Cummings and Mike Schenk, were led on the floor by Beth Robinson, Linda Allison, and Sheli Hutton in the forward court; the guard court featured Sherri Riepe, Kristi Beltramea, and Denise Horras. 1.

The Trojans played winning basketball at home all season, going 9-0 on their home court. The first Southeast Seven Conference crown for Fairfield since the 1969-70 season was claimed during the campaign, as the Trojans shared the crown with Keokuk, who held an identical 8-2 conference record. The Fairfield men clinched the share with an exciting victory over the Demons of Washington on the road, a game that ended with the Trojans cutting down their opponent's nets. This was a year of fine achievements by the boys' basketball squad. The Trojans were led all year by senior guard Steve Copeland, who was named an MVP by his team, the league coaches, and the area sportswriters. Fie was named to the first team All-SE 7 squad for the second time, and he set a school record by scoring 1,125 career points as a varsity player. He was named an All-Stater by the IDPA and the Des Moines Register. Senior Shan McWhirter was captain of the squad this year, and another senior, Lance Johnson, received the award for Most Improved Player from Trojan head coach Herb Justmann. Front Row: S.

For the 1979-80 cam- paign, senior Janice Drish was named Gymnast of the Year. She, along with juniors Megan Messer and Kathy Hecht competed in the regional competition. Messer and Drish competed in the All-around, while Hecht was entered on the balance beam. Co-captains of this year's squad were Drish and Jackie Phelps. Senior honors went to Drish, best Junior to Messer, and Best Sophomore to Kay Ward, who also claimed the Congeniality and 110 percent award. Rookie of the Year honors were given to Jenny Holmes, who was named the Trojanettes' Most Improved Player.

The three grapplers, senior heavyweight Alan Keller, junior Mike Nelson at 167 lbs., and sophomore Todd White at 98 lbs., combined to score 34 2 points at the state tourney, thus giving Fairfield its highest finish ever at the tourna- ment-13th. Keller was named Most Valuable Player for the year as he posted a 25-7 record with 21 pins and three tournament championships. Alan placed fourth in the state tournament. Nelson placed third at the tourney and White was named Rookie of the Year by his teammates. Keller was Co-captain with Dennis Morgan, who was named Most Improved Wres- tler, while junior David Messerli won the Most Determined Wrestler honors. The Trojan grapplers are coached by Tom White. Keller, Wrhite, Nelson, and Messerli were named to the 1979-80 SE 7 Wrestling Honor Roll. Front Row: M. Turecek, M. Klett, D. Bryan, T. White, K. Houseal, W. Swafford, R. Melcher, J. Aplara, B.

The Trojan golfers are under the direction of head coach Tom White. White's top players throughout the year were seniors Greg Lowenberg, Gary Higgins, and Jeff Picken, and sophomore Robbie Higgins. He had tough decisions to pick from the remaining groups of men his fifth varsity competitor.

The tennis girls and their head coach Alan Jones went through a massive rebuilding campaign with only two girls on the entire roster who earned varsity letters in 1979. The two were placed with Kelly Gilpin first and Amy Holst seeded second on the squad. Jones shuffled his girls in the other four spots in an effort to find the perfect combinations. Tammy Briggs, Kierston Kin- sella, Jolenc Horton, Jackie Holmes, Julie Kinsella, and Jenny Holmes all fit into the head coaches playing picture as did the rest of the squad. The Trojan netmen concluded a fine tennis campaign with a winning 8-2 overall record. Their only loses came at the hands of a tough Ottumwa squad. The team players were seeded with Mike Hafner, first. Jay D. Horton Second, both seniors, and with a junior in the third spot. Juniors Chad Thompson and Jim Rich- mond held down the fourth and fifth spots respectively, and standout Chris Castle was seeded sixth on the squad. Castle and Richmond both posted fine singles records with 14-2 overall records, and the pair combined on the courts to form a fine 12-0 doubles team. Wallace and Thompson were 8-6 as a doubles pair and Hafner and Horton were 5-9. The two seniors' record can be misleading as they were the only members of the squad to qualify for state high school competition by placing second in the class 1A district tournament doubles competition. They won three straight matches before falling in the finals to the number- one seeded 6-3, 6-2. The Trojan tennis team is under the direction of head coach Mike Schenck.

They went into the season with 13 returning letter- winner and they fared even better than their previous season. The track girls qualified their 4 x 400 relay team and Angie Brown in the 800 meter run for the Drake Relays and their two qalifying events turned in their best times of the season. Brown placed ninth in the state-wide field, and the 4x 400 relay team set a new school record in meters. The relay team was composed of Brown, Kristi Beltramea, Julie Litton, Libby Chezum, who was running place of Susan Kessel who was out of with back problems. The Trojan track boys boosted twelve returning letterwin- ners and they put in a fine campaign. With only two home events on their entire schedule, the boys' performances were far and above their previous records. The thinclads were led on the by senior Steve Kramer who qualified for state in the mile run in the 2 A district track meet with a second place finish. Kramer ran well throughout the season and helped bolster the scores of head coach Herb Justman's squad. Also qualifying for the meet was the Trojan mile medley team composed of Doug Parcell, Doug Smith, Milt Jackson, and Kramer. Boys' Team Lettermen-F (l-R) 5. McWhirter, B. Clements, D. Smith Smith, D.

Three teams competing in round robin flag football initiated the start of boys' intramurals for the 79-80 school year. A new activity which appeared to arouse much interest was frisbee football. During the winter months, intramurals included basketball and a co-ed ping pong tournament. The highlight of the school year involved a Basketball game between the KlOA High Hoopers and the faculty. The game was exciting and hard fought, but the faculty came through with a slim victory. 1. Superman? Steve Heston flies over cheering mates and KlOA High Hoopers during a money raising game. 2.

These were the high school activities which started well before school and often times lasted long after the final bell at three o'clock. The long hours of tiring, frustrating, but in the end rewarding preparation for various contests will long be remembered by the contestants who brought home awards. We learned a lot of valuable lessons in those clubs; like how to be a leader, how to help and work with others, and we usually found ourselves having fun while we were at it. Often trips to contests in Iowa City and Des Moines just happened to fall on a school day. (It wasn't that terrible!) Who could forget staying over night in the Canterbury Inn with its indoor swimming pool and sauna. We also prepared for our future by participating in such organizations as Office Education, Future Medical Careers and Future Farmers and Homemakers of America. Just like the people, academics and other aspects of our high school lives, we were proud of our organizations. And, why not? Just like everything else they were part of our TROJAN PRIDE! Tfti-m-y Tri-Hi-Y upheld their purpose to help other people again this year. Members sold teddy bears and pillows from the Teddy Bear Farm. They worked in concessions, sold candy earning money to donate to meals on wheels and the mental retarda- tion of citizens. They also gave money for a handicapped child at Camp Sunnyside. Other activities included a part at the County Home, collect- ing donations for Easter Seals, showing a film of a handi- capped person's role in society, and supporting Premilia a South African girl. FINANCIAL MANAGERS Financial Managers is a hard working organization found at the entrances to all athletic events. They sell and collect the tickets for each event. Among their other duties is the distrib- uting of programs, the stamping of hands and the counting and recording of the money collected. Each person receives an activity ticket free of charge upon joining the Finanqfcl Managers. Some members also receive letters for serving the required number of athletic events. 1. Front: J.

Student council provided new and more student participa- tion by having seasonal contests, such as Homecoming, the Hat Contest; Thanksgiving, the Turkey Hunt; and Easter, the jelly bean count. The council also did their annual activi- ties. They sponsored Homecoming, Sweetheart Dance, which proceeds went to Muscular Dystrophy, and the High Hoopers game. They also had their Christmas assembly, but this year they featured the student body in a talent show. Members of the council attended a workshop to discuss simi- lar problems and to get new ideas to boost student morale. A special thanks to the merchants who donated the prizes for the contests, and thanks to the faculty and student body for their co-operation. 88 DRAMA 1.

The thespians sponsored a workshop by the members of the Guthrie Theatre in Minne- apolis. The workshop was on Musical Theatre and was given for the participants of the Spring play. Hello Dolly. In order to help finance the production the members sold candy bars, worked concession stands at athletic events, sold popcorn and held a bake sale. STAGE CRAFT Stage Craft members are a vital part of any production. A show could not go on without their time and effort. The members painted flats, platforms, backdrops and constructed other necessities for Medea nd Dolly. Mr. Brigham, sponsor for all Drama activities, commented, I was pleased with the students; the time and effort all these people have put in is to be commended. DRAMA CLUB The Drama Club members had another growing, and pros- perous year. The members helped the Thespians by selling candy for the spring play, Hello Dolly! Five members, with sponsor Mr. Scott Brigham, took a trip to Chicago to see the Broadway play Annie at the Schubert Theatre. All five participants had an enjoyable day and thoroughly enjoyed the matinee. Drama Club members help paint and build sets for all productions. The members also helped sell popcorn and worked concession stands during athletic events. Drama Club is for students interested in drama or any form of stage work. It is good for gaining stage and acting experience. It is for those who enjoy working with all aspects of theatre, publicity, lighting, set work, acting, costuming, and make- up. SPEAKERS' CLUB Speakers' Club once again had a successful year. The club began its activities with the traditional initiation banquet for new members held at the Fairfield Walton Club in mid October. The initiations are set up to welcome the new mem- bers to the organization while also giving the other members a good time. For example, Steve Heston showed off his wonderful looking legs by giving an imitation of Joe Namath's pantyhose com- mercial. Becky Hutton and Phyllis Young discussed what it was like being a cornstalk and expressed their fears of the rapidly approaching combine. Suella Brenneman and Mary Wittmer had the pleasure of feeding each other bananas while blind-folded. With the approach of Christmas break, members started pre- paratory work on speeches for district and state competition. Speakers' Club members also prepared the weekly radio pro- gram The Voice of FHS. This program which was aired every Saturday over KMCD informed the general public of activities at Fairfield High School. 1.

Members of the band try out for all-State band plus many take part in the State Music Contest. Those who went brought back many division I's and M's. Choir members also take part in these contests with equally excellent results. CAREERS Even the career oriented clubs have their contests. F.F.A. takes part in many contests in which members participate. They have a parlimentary procedure team which competes. Members give speeches, weld, and plan and raise a certain animal swine production. They also had a member become District vice president — Mike Goehring. O.E.A. also partici- pated in a contest. Krista Symmonds and Diane Clark went on to Nationals. Krista received first and Diane received 8th. CHAMBER SINGERS 1. Singing out during choir practice is Don Milholin. 2.

Singing a variety from pop to classical music, choir members enjoy preparing for their various concerts and festivals. The choir sang for the Christmas program, pops, and spring concerts including Bac- calaureate. In addition, the choir participated in the South- east music Festival held in Oskaloosa. CHAMBER SINGERS The Chamber Singers are an elite group of singers, composed of twenty chosen choir members. Singers received a Division I rating at the State Music Contest held in Keokuk. Also they have sung at various concerts throughout the year. They entertained the Kiwanis, Woman's Club, the Nelson Nursing Home, and performed for the Christmas Telethon. fJ The band is a big happy family working together to give FHS more school spirit. Members learn precision as they combine marching and music through long hours of fall and spring practice in preparation for football games, parades, and marching contests. During the winter months, the band con- centrated on its three concerts and pep bands for sports events. In spring many band members spend trying hours practicing for music contest. The band sold lightbulbs this year to raise money for the band trip to be taken in the summer of 1981. 1. The FHS hjnd marches down to the field for their pregame show. 2.

The squad works with precision and accuracy. The squad works with the band at parades and march- ing contests. They help to enhance school spirit at pep rallies. The pompon girls spread enthusiasm through the halls or in the gym during basketball games or during football. Fans are greeted with smiles during half time performances. Being a pompon girl can be a way of showing pride in Fairfield High School. The twirlers added flash to the marching band this year, per- forming in parades and performing with the band during foot- ball season at the half time shows. Mr. Prill stated: The twirlers and pompons add a very important part to the marching band to add color and flair. 1. The pompon girls do routines during pep rallies. 2. The squad gets involved during a home football game. 3. Pompon: Front row; M. Foshier, L. Wagoner, L. Allen, Row 2: P. Stacy, J. Payne, M. Burke, T. VanFleet, Row 3: D. Kwak, J. Manley, M.

It contains news stories, editorials, and feature stories which inform Fairfield residents of the ideas, events, and problems at FHS. Members met every other Monday to work and to discuss good and bad points of the last issue. Members also spent much of their own time mak- ing the Troy Banner a paper to be proud of. 1. Front, A.

Meetings were held every Mon- day night to struggle through the drawing of good layouts and the battle to get good pictures. Many problems were encountered, but with the help of editors and diligent work- ers, everything was successfully completed. Staff members sold pop at football games and took a morning off from school selling ads uptown to finance the book. Members also spent a day in Iowa City at the home of a yearbook representative, looking through yearbooks and dis- cussing ideas to better our own book. 4.

LOS GRINGOS Many members went caroling at Nelson and Parkview Nurs- ing homes during Christmas with a party afterwards at Wil- lie Briggs'. Juniors and Seniors in Los Gringos were involved in the State Language Day held annually in Pella. One group placed 1st in the orientation game. Los Gringos is one of the largest organizations in school and involves itself in a wide variety of activities. During the year, Spanish Club members participated in various fund raising projects in order to raise money for students going to Spain and Mexico. These included working in concession stands at ballgames and selling candy bars to students. Trips to Fiesta Cantina in Ottumwa, nursing homes, and a language day were all on the agenda. Many members of the French Club have been involved in certain assignments which aid in a better understanding of foods, customs, and the French way of life. A complete meal was prepared with a variety of French cuisine. Also, a study of French markets was made. Students in 3rd and 4th year French classes assembled a travel booklet listing many impor- tant phrases and information. In addition, Le Petit Prince, a short novel, was read by 3rd and 4th year. At the State Language Day held in Pella, Iowa, one French group placed 2nd in the orientation game. This summer many students plan trips to France. 106 1.

FRENCH CLUB Future Farmers of America teaches the members just that, to be future farmers. It is a very structured club. Every member is required to take it as a class. Each member gets to learn about the different aspects of farming, such as soil testing, welding and setting up a production system. Besides learning activities, they have many fun activities such as Barnwarm- ing, watermelon bust, and the awards banquet. CM 1.

Although everyone is eligible, not everyone is able to get those sought after invitations. On the other hand, we are informal in that we have no officers, no dues, and no organized activities; we just sort of put in our time. In this hard-working organiza- tion we do not put emphasis on having a good time. The most exciting part of our meetings is the staggered adjournment procedure. Most members are delighted when it is their turn to depart. — Stu Heald no OEA Students are employed by businesses around town and learn to deal with the public.

The Co-operative Office Education Association is a program which gives students the opportunity to receive on-the-job training in a business field. Students attended high school early-bird classes from 7:30 to 8:25 in the morning then went to their jobs in the afternoon. During some of their morning classes the students learn many facts that can be put into practice on the job. Students spend an average of 15 hours a week at their job.

It's an FHS Cheerleader! Cheerleading is an activity which combines both fun and hard work. Cheerleaders spend a lot of their time designing and making posters for the school halls and the athletes' lockers. Hardly a game went by without new posters to encourage the athletes and boost school spirit. Along with designing posters, the cheerleaders spend time perfecting routines. Cheerleaders are also responsible for pep assemblies. They must decide on themes, arrange for speak- ers, and compose skits. 1.

Quill and Troy Banner combined to have the Quill and Scroll initiation at a joint staff picnic at Chautauqua Park. A softball game highlighted the evening with the Troy Banner staff defeating the Quill staff 5-3. Initiation of the seventeen members into the Quill and Scroll National Honor Society completed the evening. The honor goes to juniors and seniors who excel in the journalism field and have a grade point average of 3.0 or better. Torch Club Torch Club, the National Honor Society, held two tappings, initiating twenty-two members in the fall and twenty-one members in the spring. Torch Club members are selected on four qualities: scholarship, ledership, character and service. Members are tapped during an all-school assembly and par- ents are invited to attend the ceremony. The primary obliga- tion of the organization is to keep the calendar of events outside the office up-to-date. 1.

And, we may not even re- member the things we did. But in twenty years, and twenty years after that, and even after that, we'll remember the people who shared our high school years. Friends, enemies, lovers, partners, you name it, our relationships with the other people at FHS will linger on forever. And why not? Who could forget nicknames like Skeeter, Diaper Man, Granite Head, and the others? And who could forget the people that earned, and held, those names? And how about the teachers? Hey, admit it, now, they weren't that bad of people, were they. The friends we made among the faculty members will still be around in a few years too, to help us, just like they tried to do in high school. People. That word covers a lot of ground. And, you can be sure, that when our kids are in school, and we remember our times there, the people will be what we remember. — Steve Heston SOPHOMORE CLASS OFFICERS: C Har- rison, sec.; R.

In the case of Maria del Carmen Limon-better known as Maye (Mah- gee), it was pizza, crunch cones, tennis and being on a chase crew at the balloon races in Indianola. Maye was impressed most by the Black Hills and Badlands. She was also pleased that her cousin (also on AFS student) was on the tour. During her nine month stay here Maye was a daughter to Dr. and Mrs. Gene Egli and Mr. and Mrs. Bob Har- ward. She cut her stay short by three months so that she could start college in Jalcipa, Veracruz Mexico in the fall. Maye plans to be a lawyer in Business Administration. But as is true with all high school students, those plans could change. While she was here, Maye was a member of the tennis team, Spanish Club, and she participated activity in FHS student life.

The goal of this organization, sponsored by the American Lung Association, if to give children enough information on smoking that they'll choose not to smoke. All members have a partner with whom they develop and present a project to kids at various elementary cen- ters. Receiving an excused absence, members take school time to talk with the kids, answer their questions, and listen to some of the problems they've had with friends and adults that smoke. INS members feel it is quite rewarding to receive ap- plause and gratitude from the children when they finish. The members feel they have been quite successful in the past. Any person who joins INS usually enjoys communi- cating with younger children. They believe that high school students are more effective talking to younger children than adults are. Various projects have been utilized to further their goal, including a movie made by two students, a poster contest, educational films, slides, experiments to show what smoke does to the lungs, and other types of effective presentations. 125 Brian Abbey Lori Adamson Linda Allison Kathy Ancell Kris Anderson t Tina Ankenbauer French Students Welcome Visitors Understanding and the willingness to open homes and hearts to youngsters of another country are the requirements for a host family. Five FHS students and their families hosted French femmes during the month of July through the International Student Exchange of Iowa, in cooperation with the Atlantic Cultural League of France. And, one FHS student was fortunate enough to spend two weeks during July and August in gay Paree. Beth Hickenbottom, a third year French student, spent two weeks, accompanied by her mother, Willa Mae Hickenbottom, in the capitol of France. Although they stayed at the Sheriton Hotel, most of their time was spent with Isabelle Tosello and her family of Paris. Hicken- bottoms hosted Isabelle for a month last summer under ISEI. During their stay, Beth and her mother spent many days touring the world- famous French institutions, such as Le Louvre, Sacre Coeur (Sacred Heart), Notre Dame, Verailles, and Chantilly. The five young French women who experienced American life with local families, hailed from all parts of their native land, and varied in age. The Barry Ward family, and daughter Lisa, hosted Francoise Man- frey, age 16, of Orleans. Wards and their guest, whose nickname was Fa-Foo, visited Adventureland, the shopping malls of Burlington, Iowa City, and Des Moines, and various horse show sites across the state. Sylvie Bernegaud, age 17, of Bordeaus, spent July with the Richard Schrumm family, and daughter Oralee Leudtke. Oralee and Sylvie took in the historical sights of Des Moines and Iowa City, as well as Adven- tureland and Decorah at the time of the Nordic Fest. Nathalie Desneux of Paris turned 17 while staying with the Dale Millers, and daughter Peggy. The Millers journeyed to Ottumwa, Six Flags, Burlington, and Des Moines in an effort to show their French friend the American way of life. Nathalie hopes to someday return to the U.S.A. to work and live. If she did, the language barrier would probably be minimal. Said Peggy, Nathalie's English was so good, I didn't have much of a chance to practice my French. The John Herr family, and daughter Anne, hosted Pascale Sauret, age 16, from Marseilles. Pascale enjoyed visiting Des Moines, Adventure- land and Iowa City. She had a cousin staying in Packwood under the same exchange program, and Pascale delighted in spending time with her. It helped ward off home sickness. Dena Krentz and her family, the Raymond Krentzes, hosted Eliza- beth Rancurel, age 16, of Neuilly. The Krentzes spent the month enjoying regular family activities, including a hog roast, trips to Lake Darling, Happy Joe's, the disco, and spending time at Ag. Show. Elizabeth also tried out the family's three-wheeler. Dena commented, Elizabeth was very active and she liked most animals. She was willing to help with anything but the hogs. Also, Dena has very definite plans to spend a month in France the summer of 1980, staying with Elizabeth and her family. Through future visits, and continuous letters, these bonds of friend- ship between French mademoiselles and Americans will flourish and grow. 126 Steve Cook Denise Copeland Pam Craff Mike Crawford Joe Arndt Jill Baird Steve Ball Melissa Barr Kristi Beltramea Amy Bloomquist Mike Booth Melissa Bower Tammy Briggs Rosemary Brown Kurt Brush Dave Buch Mark Burnham Nina Bussey Marian Butner Bill Butner Gary Carroll Lihby Chezum Chung Hi Chong Kevin Clingan Rhonda Clingan Todd Clough Terri Coleman Tim Coleman 0 Jeanna Cunningham Charles Danielson Peggy Doyle Nancy Duncan Craig Eklund JUNIOR CLASS OFFICERS: J.

The week long conference took place at Camp Cheley, a rustic camp high in the Rocky Mountains. The Student body Co-Presidents were sponsored by the Fair- field Student Council. Accompanied by their advisor, Cheryl Hostetler, the boys made the trip in a 1979 Grand Prix donated by Sut Hill Motors. The three of them took in the sights of Denver during the day before the camp began. While the boys were at the camp. Miss Hostetler visited friends in Phoenix. The camp emphasized communication and organization as effective tools for leadership. Ideas were shared between campers on useful Student Council projects. The conference also included a hike to the top of a mountain and numerous competitive volleyball games. Free time was spent throwing frisbees, playing basketball, or talking with a new friend. Jeff and Brad were both sorry to have an unforgetable week come to an end, but they returned to FHS anxious to put their newly learned ideas to use.

Jackie describes horse competition as a bug you can't get rid of, once it's bitten you. Jackie has had this bug for about 14 years — ever since she began riding horses in competition at the age of six. In fact, Jackie has enjoyed horses ever since she was three years old and rode on her grandfather's farm. Today Jackie is the proud owner of a fine show horse and a large collection of ribbons and trophies that she has been awarded for outstanding efforts in horse competition. Much of Jackie's showing has been in the 4-H division of various local shows and at the Iowa Sate Fair. Consequently, she has won nearly every award offered by the 4-H group. One of Jackie's biggest thrills was when she was named the top rider in the 14-18 year-old division of horsemanship at the Iowa State Fair. Other highlights of her competitive career include winning second place in the pleasure class at the State Fair and gaining eligibility to compete at the well-known Ak-Sar-Ben for the last four years. Horse riding is not all glory as Jackie well knows; there is a great deal of work that goes into the care of a horse. On an average, Jackie spends 30 minutes to an hour each evening doing chores. This includes feeding, hoof care and grooming the horse. Considerable time must also be spent in training the horse. During a peak season, when she will be attending a lot of shows, Jackie usually spends three hours a day riding and training her horse Dorrie. On an off week, she may cut down to give Dorrie and herself a break from the hectic pace. Competing in horse shows has taught Jackie many things. One of these is how to take defeat, because Jackie is not always awarded a trophy or ribbon for her efforts. Not only is it (horse competition) a great experience, but I've learned to accept things as they are. I can have high hopes and know I've had an excellent ride in a class and I still don't win. So I've just learned to remember that there's always another judge tomorrow who will see me differently — and hopefully better, explains Jackie. —Janette Frieberg Not Pictured Kim Van A 1st Tammy VanFleet Russell Allen Doug Manley James Baxter Kris Metcalf Dorrie Bowman Curt Morton Margaret Boyle Candy O'dell Mark Brumm Don Phillips Kyle Chezum Tracy Rakoff Robin Cole Judy Ridgeway Don Copple Doug Schultz Mary Beth Erickson John Shipman Bill Fosdyck Julie Shults Bobby Franklin John Sloca Jeff Fritz Dave Swegle Bill Fye Ron Umlauf Wayne Hoyle Michelle Weber Tina Verduzco Nick Walker Mike Wallace Lisa Ward Rhuie Watson Lisa Waugh Karla Wesely Laura Whitman Julie Whitney Lynn Whitten Peggy Wilson Scott Wisecarver Mark Worm ley Phyllis Young Carol Whittington Gina Wickliff Russell Wilkinson John Wilson 1.

SENIOR! ■XL The shrill cry beckons him to come. Is it the call of the wild?-No, it's just that ! ! ! alarm clock. It's four-thirty a.m. and time for F.H.S. senior, Greg Lowen- berg, to get out of his warm bed and get to work. Greg isn't a cowboy of a milk- man, or even a famous under cover cop- he is a small game trapper. Greg has been running traps for two years. He became interested while trap- ping with Todd Hall, also a senior at FHS, and local Iowa State Patrolman Roy Eubanks. From November third to January sixth Greg spends approximately three hours a day running his ninety to one hundred sets all within about a ten to fifteen mile radius around his home in rural Jefferson County. His main catch consists of coons, muskrats, and a few mink. Of course, there are always memo- rable extras in ihe catch history of every trapper. Greg told of the time he found two skunks caught in a single trap. Now that's one subject that is best approached carefully and down-wind if at all possi- ble! Could trapping really be worth the hassle and such early hours? Greg thinks so. The sport has been enjoyable and profitable. In line with this years prices an average size coon brought between thirty and forty dollars and an average muskrat about six dollars and twenty- five cents. Gres plans on entering college in the fall of 1980, but says tnat his dad is enough interested in the operation to keep things going while he is gone. Then, after college, he plans to resume his position as head trapper. Greg used traps of about three sizes: 2 coil springs, 220 conibers and 110 conibers. He gets his license each year as is required by state law.

FHS is proud to boast an exception to this rule. Steve Berg, high school senior, is an accomplished organist. Steve got involved with music in the first grade when he started taking piano lessons from Joanne Ancell. As his skill grew, so did his desire for something more challenging. He started organ les- sons in sixth grade and has taken lessons from several teachers since then. He is currently studying with Tom Barker of Ottumwa. Steve has had much experience in per- forming on the organ. He played at church services every other week at the Baptist Church from January to August of 1979. He's also played for a couple of wedding and occasionally substitutes for other organists around town. At organ workshops Steve has the op- portunity of speaking with such nation- ally known organists as Marilyn Mason and Robert Baker. He is thinking about minoring in church music in college so that he can further his skills and continue to pro- vide beautiful music for Sunday morn- ing worshipers. As Steve says, Music gives me a wa to express myself, to relax and forget the world for awhile. I am thankful for Cod's gift and I hope I will be able to use it for many years.

Nanako is living with Mr. and Mrs. Clark Johnston of Fairfield. The Johnsons have no children living at home, but Nanako says she isn't lonely. Keeping busy in school activities helps. She is active in choir and chamber singers, and also enjoys drawing and art. Before coming to Iowa, Nanko lived with three different families in North Dakota for a year. The full term of her stay is two years, but when asked if she ever gets homesick she replied, no. The only major difference Nanako sees between her old schools and the ones she has attended in America is that the work here is easier. She will graduate from FHS with the class of 1980 and then spend the summer at her home just north of Tokyo. Her plans for the future include coming back to Iowa, in the fall and attending Indiana Hills Community College in Ottumwa. Computer programming is her chosen field of study. There is even a possibility, Nanako said, that she will continue to live in America after completing her education. The long grueling homework assignments, the pop quizzes, cranky teachers, extended sixth hours, filing through the cattle guard in lunch line. 1.

Whether you bought gas at the Pep Stop or the Derb it always seemed to empty one's pockets on a Friday night Call Of The Wild Most students wouldn't treasure the idea of getting up at 5:00 in the morn- ing, climbing a dangerously high cliff, or wearing wool sweaters during the summer-except Dave Swegel and Todd Taylor. Both participated in a summer program called Outward Bound. Todd was first interested in Outward Bound after watching a National Geographic program on it. He went to Northwestern Outward Bound in Oregon. At this camp they did such things as repelling the side of a cliff by rope, being lowered into a glacier crack, and hiking fourteen miles in one day. What I liked most was climbing to the top of small mountain ' commented Todd. That small mountain was 10, 037 feet high! Dave got the idea from his brother. Dave went to Hurricane Island in Maine. Since he was near the water, he spent most of his time sailing. His group also built a raft for survival purposes. To keep in shape Dave ran the two and one-half mile distance of the island every day. Wool was the name for clothing. Wool shirts, sweaters, pants, socks, and mittens were the main packing items. Temperatures at both Hurricane Island and Northwestern got below freezing at times. Neither one could sleep late, considering Dave had to get up at 5:00 and Todd at 6:00. Usually they went to sleep right after supper, dead tired. Both camps had what was called a solo. Each member would go off and spend three days by himself, living off the land. Todd camped by a creek, where he cleaned himself up and wrote some letters. Dave said he mostly slept. Since there were many small islands in the area of Hurricane Island, each person had his own island. The final expidition at Northwestern was a type of test to see how much was learned. Everyone was put into a group and given directions to travel to a designated point without instructors. They had three and one-half days to travel fifty miles. There was also a thirteen mile marathon at the end of the session. At Hurricane Island the campers ran a six mile marathon and had sailing races. Dave and Todd would recommend either course to anyone interested. It's a great way to find out more about oneself and what one can accomplish. 177 It feels good to be leaving, but even better to know that we'll always have our memories of FHS, and FHS pride with us.

We know it is not possible to cover all the activities in which students are involved, but we have attempted to cover as large a variety of activities as possible. We have tried to make this a history book, for and about the students at FHS and to show what it was like to be a teen- ager during this time period. We would like to thank our staff. We know we were often hard to get along with and even harder to please, but we did appreciate the good work which they all did. Their work has paid off in creating a yearbook which we can all be proud of. We would like to extend our thanks to The Fairfield Ledger and Mort Caines for their photography work and their willingness to help when- ever possible. A special thanks must go to our advisor Mrs. Marker. She was an advisor in the true sense of the word. She gave us the freedom to develop our own ideas and techniques and was more than willing to help us along whenever possible. But when our plans became to ex- travagant, she knew when and how to bring us back to earth. Mrs. M., as we came to call her, was more than just a yearbook advisor, she was a friend. Thanks!
