Text from Pages 1 - 52 of the 1953 volume:

953 9% - ')lan4i,eau High School Jlahdreau, £cut t Each year we dedicate this annual to some one who has done outstanding work in our community and who we leel deserves recog- nition for the contribution they have made. It is our pleasure to dedicate this, the 1953 Flyer, to Mr. Howard Lester. Mr. Lester was Principal of Spafford Grade School for five years and was football coach besides having taught a number of our classes. As our friend and instructor we found much pleasure in his company and much satisfaction from his friendship. We thank you. Mr. Lester, for your untiring efforts and your friendship. The 1953 Annual Staff Howard Leatar Here we are; Ihe one who pui this annual together for you. We got together every Monday night for about two hours and. among bubble gum wads and typewriter erasers, wrote, typed, pasted, and had a lot of fun working out the problems of the yearbook. The 1953 annual, for your pleasure and ap- proval; we hope that you will like il. Marble, Collins, Hanson. Me Olone. Assistant Editor Nep- rud. Editor Staack.

Secretary of Board fldtn'mU tratbh We dedicate this page to our administrators and our school board who are responsible for us as students here at Flandreau. The preoccupied looks on their faces reveal the many problems which they attempt to solve in making our education worthwhile. We are fortunate to have such an outstanding board and administration to keep the wheels of F.H.S. turning, for their job is difficult and essential to the community. ficatd ctf Cducatich Here they are kids, the rugged but right people that direct our efforts and accomplish- ments. We admit that we hesitate to give them credit, but they say experience is the best teacher and our faithful faculty has really had their share of experience. Good or bad we will not say. With a little effort on the part of the students and a little push on the part of the faculty, ye old F.H.S. has really made the grade. We thank them and hope for their sake that the classes to come will see and appreciate their efforts. These downtrodden city slickers and sod busters comprise the handsome student body of Flandreau High. They are doing their utmost to promote themselves to future citizens of America and are trying to make their mark — on the desk if not otherwise. Some manage to bear up under four years of toil, labor, hardships, and tribulations, while others take life easy and play the part of a loafer. Of course that last understatement pertains to a good number of the noble stu- dents of F.H.S.! All joking aside, an ample amount of elbow grease is being applied by the students to make this estab- lishment famous in the eyes of many and incidentally, to graduate. 1. We surprised the English class, but not enough so Johnson couldn t pose. 2. Benson is doing all the work while Keating and Lee offer useless advice. 3. Too many cooks sure spoiled those cookies. 4. Hager is posing for a formal portrait. 5. Best part of school is getting out. 6. Cec looks tired from cleaning up the mess. 7. Pottebaum is cold, as usual. 8. Amundson's in the front row with his mouth open. ClaM c(f I9S3 We present the graduating class of 'S3. Believe it or not they started their career at F.H.S. as scared but enthusiastic students of the (ahem) finer arts. However, they soon learned the ropes with the help of the upperclassmen, and of course, the faculty added a little something to their vast store of information, even though the teachers efforts often seemed in vain. If we may put the senior philosophy in use, it is popularly believed that the teachers know more than the students, but how many teachers manage to grad- uate each year??? And so we bid them a fond farewell and hope they will recall their F.H.S. years with pleasant memories. Mark McGlone Vergene Hanson Sweetheart Candidate, National Honor Society.

This is the class lhai was about to do anything for a price — except murder. These kids have to be given credit for having lasted the year through and given the seniors a nice prom and banquet with the loot they accumulated. They sold magazine subscriptions, refreshments at the games and after school and used any other means by which money could be acquired. Before the prom and banquet they and their hard working advisor. Mrs. While, worked feverishly preparing for these never to be forgotten occasions and hoped to come out even, (financially, that is). The thought that they were doing a lot for the upper classmen might have entered their minds, but the juniors enjoy the events just as much as. if not more than, the seniors. Their efforts throughout the year seemed worthwhile because the results were theirs to enjoy, too. Joan Varm. Don Wade. Nyla Thoreeon, Bob Underland. Vergene Smallfield, Ronnie Soren- son.

Every sophomore class feels fully at home as they venture into their second year with some new experiences and, no matter how much they complain about being too busy, they find plenty of time for some fun. It isn't hard to tell where stack those boxes, or into the gutter, and my shoes need polishing, came from for they also hold the whip-hand over the poor green freshmen. The sophs are hoping they won't have so much trouble making a stake to start their junior year as they had accumulating their few nickels this past year. All in all, Mr. Rollins, as class adviser, hasn't had too much trouble with them because the sophs are really a pretty good bunch of kids and are all working in earnest to make theirs one of the outstanding classes at F.H.S.

They survived the dreaded initiation and have continued throughout the year in the usual fresh- man way. by trial and error. By this time we re very proud of our freshman and they have unanimously been accepted by the rest of the classes. They will begin their sophomore year with their usual drive and ambition which has made them one of the fine organizations of Flandreau High. Lovey Wood. B.tly Zw.noolborfl.

Those that stress our wonderful vocabularies are speech, dramatics, and debate. Mr. Rollins was in charge of declam and our debate teams, while Mrs. Helgeson directed the dramatics class along their road of education. Mrs. Rice and her journalism class are well known, due to her ability to turn out such an excellent paper in a calm, collected way. Mrs. Rewalt and her chorus furnish music for the music lovers every fifth period, and furnish music groups for various organizations throughout the school year. Mr. Samp and his band also play the same role, and in addition, play at all pep meetings and home town games. One and all. the activities brighten the school year considerably for teacher, spectators, and stu- dents. Big bad wolf Zwingleberg. Tex Hemminger finally saves Little Nell Krech.

Although these nine smiling students don't look properly impressed by the serious job which falls on their shoulders, they have ably coped with the job of go-between for the student body and the administration. They got off to a flying start by promoting homecoming and wound up the year by meeting occasionally to discuss school problems. This past year they helped to sponsor an all school Christmas party and Winter Formal which were highlights of the social whirl. The Council has been very active and has done much to keep our school spirit alive. i Janice Whaley, president of the student body, looked like this as she came into the office to argue a point with the faculty the other day.

J The National Honor Society members are those juniors and seniors who have succeeded in maintaining an average oi ninety or above in all subjects and have shown themselves to be out- standing in character, leadership, scholarship, and service. Only through fulfillment of these requirements are they eligible for acceptance into the National Honor Society. Besides just being brainy, and con- tributing their best to any class they attend, their projects were: an instal- lation ceremony for the new members, which was tried for the first time this year, sponsorship with the Student Council of an all school Christmas party and helping with the Civic and Commerce Christmas party. One of their good deeds was the sponsorship of a Winter Formal for the F.H.S. students. Back Row: Leo Olson, Noil Heckt.

Oh well, mail or paper, here are some kids who with their capable adviser, Mrs. Rice, work their heads to the bone so that we may be aware of the happenings in and about F.H.S. The Flier comes out every Friday and records for us the happenings of the week, containing every thing from poems to feature stories. These journalists may sometimes feel their labors are in vain but to most of the student- body the Flier is very real asset to the school. They have been awarded first place in their division of mimeographed papers, in South Dakota High School Press Association for the past two years. Each journalist participating actively for three years receives a letter and membership to the Quill and Scroll Fraternity, an international award, may be given for outstanding work in writing or edit- ing.

The low humming, the thunderous roars, and the hammering sounds that emit from the lower regions of the school house aren't just from the furnace but in reality a group calling themselves the Future Farmers of America. It may not seem reasonable to you, but each of them is in earnest about his future vocation. This group includes about fifty-one fine looking young men who run around in their greasy coveralls looking for miss- ing parts and in general seeing how much they can get away with under the watchfull eye of Mr. Sorenson, their adviser. They carry on supervised farm- ing programs and supplementary farm- ing activities such as participating in meat, stock and grain judging contests and maybe a convention or two. They also sponsor a magazine sale campaign, an annual barn dance, and a father and son mixer. Some of their projects in- clude study of sheep, swine, grains, beef and dairy cattle raising, and women (the latter prove to be the most interesting). We are proud to say that these boys, the members of the F.F.A., are future builders of America, too. Sentinal.

The F.H.S. music department consists of three groups, the A and B Girls' Glee Clubs and the Mixed Chorus. After straining their vocal chords for about 8 months of the school year they are ready for the music contest and by this time Mrs. Rewalt is physically and mentally exhausted! During the course of the year the smaller vocal ensembles enter- tained some of the local organizations and a Vocal Concert was given in the spring. Ten students sang in the All State Chorus which consisted of members of high school choruses throughout the state and presented a concert for a general session of the S.D.E.A. con- ference.

Their efforts may be in the direction of declamation, dramatics, or debate and each student is interested in his work and the experience gained. Our debaters cussed and discussed the question resolved: That the Atlantic Pact Nations Form a Federal Union, and managed among many honors to stir up some mighty nasty tempers. The dramatics class met two nights every week and throughout the year studied acting, stag ing. and make-up in addition to producing several one-act plays. Declamation win- ner: Elaine Teal- poetry, Janice Whaley-dramatic, Renee Neprud-hum- orous, Shirley Me- Kellips-oratory. On the following pages will appear the muscles, spirits, am- bitions, and drive of the F.H.S. athletic department. They play a vital role in our school program and have done much to build Frandreau's reputation in the slate. Many of our school activities are centered around athletics so you can imagine how dull and dragged out the year would be if we had no basketball and football games for the students to look forward to as players or spectators. 1.

Jones Hemecotnihg Our homecoming festivities began this year with the coronation of our king and queen, followed by Little Orpheum acts from each of the four classes and music department. In spite of working on floats throughout the fes- tivities. the bonfire, initiation ceremony and the pep rally, everyone was ready for Fri- day. The big day came at last with the band leading the array of floats and students through the streets of Flandreau. The whole shebang was climaxed by the football game with the Canton C-Hawks from which the Flandreau Fliers came forth victorious and in good shape for the dance afterward which left everyone in high spirits over the success- ful weekend. The evening of October 8. the year one thous- and nine hundred and fifty-two, Wayne Ailts and Marcella Beach were crowned King and Queen of Flandreau's 34th annual homecom- ing, and reigned over the festivities of the following two days.

Behind all this glory, how- ever, is really a lot of work and fun for the boys who participate in football each fall. Along with some misplaced knee caps and fractured eyeballs, the boys came through with a fine club this year, whether the re- sults of the scores showed it or not. Behind the idea of playing only to win, lies the fact that some real spirit in the plays, and some true sportsmanship are the fruits of the battle. Due credit is given at this time to Mr. Cotton, our coach, and Mr. Johnson, our as- sistant coach, who guided these boys through a fine football season.

To get this polished look takes many hours of after school practice and strict (?) training, well, a pretense of it anyway. Every Friday night they show their ability on the floor of the local Armory or on the foreign batllefronl. More than a know- ledge of how to bounce a ball is needed to make a good game, how ever, and these boys have to de- velop footwork, passing, ball handling ability, and teamwork to make an outstanding team. Mr. Cotton, who is responsible for the attributes of our team, deserves recognition for the fine work he has done with the boys. Pic- tured at the lower right and left hand corners are the B basket- ball boys who lack experience now. but will in a few years, be the backbone of our team. Recog- nition must also be given to Mr. Johnson who has taught funda- mentals of basketball to the boys and was coach for the B team. Gary Chamley, Denny Brook, Richard Jensen.

The boys didn't get into action until the latter part of the year, but they proved themselves worthy of the confidence we had in them. We of Flandreau High tend to forget that track, as well as basketball or football, takes lots of practice and hard work. They lived through the ordeal and managed to smile although they put in a lot of extra hours and had lots of sore mus- cles. You will see most of them back again next year in spite of the mighty labor in- volved. Che eh leader Shirley Myers, Diane Eide, Renee Neprud, Phyllis Palm, Nancy Males. I everybody happy? That sounds familiar doesn't it? Yes, these are our five steam engines with their stoker, Mr. Samp trying to steam up our team for another roaring vic- tory. They are the girls who lead the cheers at all the games and keep us yelling, or at least try to. They are chosen at the beginning of each school year by the student body and con- tinue to raise the roof the whole year through. We are grate- ful to have such a fine group of girls who have combined their efforts to lead our school to many flying victories. £ffcnAcrJ 3 Baksheesh! Baksheesh! cried members of the annual staff as they approached those listed below. One of the essentials in the production of our annual is that all important stuff, money. It is from our sponsors that half of the necessary cas.i for our book comes and we thank them sincerely for their dollars and hope they will continue their support in the future. style’s Standard Station Independent Lumber Company LGtiast to Coast .-Faris Meat Market Olson «-Blfern Home Equipment Burns Barber Shop 1—Sunshine Hatchery lure.
