They were bestowed this honor at the climax of Little Orpheum held October 2. The night’s events began with a welcoming cheer by the cheerlead- ers. Each class followed displaying their individual talents. The Pep Club members raised school spirit as they depicted various scenes about the forthcoming Homecoming football game. These seven senior boys proudly display their beautiful (?) legs as they relate to the audience their version of can-can dancers. These graceful boys include Jim Doyle, Jim Fargen, Terry Rosheim, Steve Solsaa, Chuck Walker, Dave Johnson, and Perry Johnson. We wish these dan- cers the best of luck in future appearances. The ’69 senior class traditionally splashed the rock in their class colors of mint green and white. The seniors felt it proper to get a new” rock to coin- cide with the new school. While painting the rock, they vowed to work for a more rewarding athletic season. With high team spirit and much enthusiasm, the band, dressed in full uniform, helped the cheer- leaders rouse school spirit. They played a number of cheerful marches to add to the evening's excitement. A tepee was burned depicting the death of the Sisseton Redmen on Thursday, October 3. The cheerleaders led the student body in boosting spirits, while the tepee burned to the ground. With torches in hand, a parade led by the royalty, marched to the school song until reaching main street of Flandreau where a pep rally was held. The traditional snake dance concluded the evening's activities. Victory came to the Fliers at the Homecoming game when they stomped the Sisseton Redmen with a score of 19-0. Action took place after the game when the students attended the dance at Spafford Grade School with music furnished by the “Free Will. 15 FFA Chooses Sweetheart The FFA Parent and Son Mixer, held October 31 at Flandreau High, announced the FFA Chapter Sweetheart.

Some of the many duties they performed were checking books in and out, taking care of magazines, and keeping the library in order. The librarians pictured above are Grace Fank, Jean Podratz, Becky Beatty, LcAnn Hoff, Gloria Iverson, Roxee Jones, Pat Fuhs, Sue Booth, Margo Headrick, and Jiman Moller. The other members of the librarian staff include Lonnie Mutschelknaus. Carolyn Jepsen, Kathy Grafing, Pat Bendt, Lois Hoff, Vicky Jurgens, and Connie Jewett. Some of the girls worked as librarians at the Middle School during their free periods. 25 Journalistic Staffs Work Efficiently The editors for the ’69 Flyer were Mary K.

The High Flier Staff consisted of the follow- ing: Lani Julson; Nancy Lee; Chris Duncan; Mr. James Buckmeier, advisor; Glen Eng; Debra Christenson; Mary Kreber and Kathy Keating. The staff worked diligently throughout the 1968-69 school year to publish the High Flier. Bad weather made it impossible for a paper to appear weekly. 26 Students Voice Talents Twenty-one students participated in the local declam contest held on October 28. Judging was Fred Smith from SDSU. In the Oratory division the first place winner was Melissa Hobson, who read “The Image of Old Glory”. Stephne Whaley placed first in the dramatic division with “At Ease Son”. “The Creation” read by Marcia Kittleson won in the poetry division. In the humorous division Mary K. Skroch received first with “The Waltz”. These four girls ad- vanced to the regional contest held in Volga on November 5, where Stephne and Mary K. again received superiors. The two winners then participated in the district contest held in Madison, South Dakota, where they were eliminated from further participation. The four local winners are pictured above. They are Stephne, Marcia, Melissa, and Mary K. Pictured above is the debate team working diligently to prepare speeches for debates.

Brookings, Madison, Yankton, and Worthington. 27 Underclassmen Reveal Talents The cast of the winning play “Not Enough Rope included (I. to r.) Dean Mogle, Jackie Olson, and Debbie Carr. The play is about Edith Frudlander, (Jackie Olson) a lonely, young woman, who wishes to hang herself. She borrows the rope from her neighbor. Gaude (Dean Mogle). Edith is about to commit suicide when she decides against it, but discovers it is too late. Edith's neighbor, Mrs. Pierce, (Debbie Carr) is an elderly lady who refuses to become involved. Edith finds herself in quite a situation, however, Claude reluctantly rescues her to recover the rope. The One Act plays, under the supervision of Delbert Keith, were held on January 3, 1969. The judges of the five plays were Mrs. Elaine McAtee, Mrs. Cheryl Schaeffer, Mrs. Sara Rouse, and Miss Marilyn Anderson. The three top local winners were “Enter the Hero , Marianne Duncan; “The Re- hearsal , Kay Chamberlin; and “Not Enough Rope , Shelly Whaley.

The directors of the top three local plays were (1. to r.) Michelle Whaley, “Not Enough Rope ; Kay Chamber- lin, “The Rehearsal ; and Marianne Duncan, “Enter the Hero . 28 Senior Class Production—Triumph! The Senior Class of 1969 presented “Curtain Call for Gifford” May 21, 1969 at Flandreau Auditorium. Miss Marilyn Anderson chose the cast and advised them throughout practices. Miss Anderson’s faithful student director, Marianne Duncan, directed the cast of seniors. The opening scene of the play began with a rousing cheer by Rockwood High cheerleaders, Kris Scofield Flooper Bushman (Debbie LaLonde), and Deon Duncan. The student body is celebrating the presen- tation of an athletic award to Biff Reese (Bill Armstrong). Clifford (Tom Critser) got the male lead role in the play, playing opposite his secret love, Donna Bratton (Chris Duncan). The plot thickens when Donna’s steady boy friend, Biff Reece, sabotages the play on opening night. Joyce (Glenda Veldkamp) and Sidney (Randy Jewett) portrayed the parts of the Lord and Lady Blackbom in the play. Andy (Jerry Studsdahl) played the butler who was ghost and murderer in the play. Eda Troutliver (Stephne Whaley) and Harry DeWilde (Dave Johnson), advisors for the play, kept the audi- ence in stitches as Harry continually consoled Miss Troutliver as she became emotionally involved in the progress of the play. All seniors participated in the production of the play with either acting parts or special committees. 29 The “A cheerleaders for the 1968- 1969 school year were Cathe Bauske (2 yrs.), Joan Gageby (3 yrs.), Kris Scofield (4 yrs.), Mary K. Skroch (1 yr.), and Glenda Veldkamp (1 yr.). These five vivacious cheerleaders very loyally led the student body and teams through a hard fought athletic season. They attended the cheer- leading clinic in Brookings on Septem- ber 28, 1968, which encouraged many hard practices. To help pep up the student body, the school purchased purple pom poms, and the cheerleaders repainted the gold megaphones to a bright purple. A new method of elimination was initiated this year as a flip from the minitramp was a prerequisite to the finals. In the finals, each girl performed before the faculty who had the honor of choosing eight candidates. After a final vote by the student bod) these five were named. From left to right are Joan Gageby, Kris Scofield, Glenda Veldkamp, Mary K. Skroch, and Cathe Bauske. The cheerleaders received much advice and aid from their advisor. Miss Marilyn Anderson. Time Out for Team Spirit The freshman and sophomore classes elected cheerleaders to help lead their “B” team to victory. The same procedure was used in selecting the B squad as the “A except the flip from the minitramp was not a re- quirement. The “B” cheerleaders purchased new purple sweaters and skirts. The “A cheerleaders passed down their old gold sweaters and purple pom poms to the junior squad. The “B” cheerleaders are (1. to r.) Margo Headrick, Jackie Olson, Roxee Jones, and Bette Hass, (center) 30 Competent Council Governs FHS The 1968-69 Student Council was under the leadership of Student Body President Randy Jewett (center).

The banquet was held at the Methodist Church with “Arabian Nights” as the theme. Connie Myers, also of Elkton, provided entertainment. Dave Johnson and Vicki Thompson were chosen as 1969 Prom Royalty. Dave was named King Schadriar, and Vicki was crowned Queen Sche- herazade. Members of their court were Chris Duncan, Connie Veldkamp, Joan Gageby, Jim Fargen, Dan Thomas, and Scott Ramsdell. 32 Carol Moe and the Fabulous Talismen provided music for the evening . . . ... to the couples as they happily danced around the magic carpet which extended from the ceiling. A small bridge provided an archway between the desert and the oasis. The teachers found the “Arabian Nights’ a very enjoyable prom and found relaxation in the oasis. ) v 33 Denise Headrick (r.) and Bette Hass, shown in typical Arabian dress, provided punch from Aladin’s Lamp. Juniors in Action These hard working juniors and their advisor, Mrs. Telkamp, are shown as they work dili- gently to complete the deadline of the prom. They are shown putting final touches on the bridge which led to chairs, where you could rest after a tiring dance. The theme of the 1968—69 prom was “Arabian Nights.” The juniors (right) are putting pomps on the bandstand which was a sand dune. Palm trees added to the setting of the oasis. Mr. Bums, a junior class advisor, supervises as the boys hang the sabre on the wall. Careful, guys! Many of the couples had pictures taken in front of the sabre. 34 Boys Take to Gridiron First Dave Johnson charges downfield for the winning points. Good defense helps win a football game. The Flier’s 1968 football team finished the season with a 3 win, 6 loss record. They finished fifth in the Conference with 3 victories and 4 defeats. The squad, under the coaching of James McGlone, Dave Acheson, and Dann Cecil, started pre- season practice two weeks before the first game. The boys hit the field twice a day for the first week with two to three hour practice sessions in the morning and in the evening. The first game was played against an E.S.D. school, Madison. The Fliers got beat 41 -0 in their first game on their home field. The Fliers then traveled to Hartford, who narrowly defeated them by a score of 13-7. The next week Coach McGlone’s squad lost another close game to Webster by a score of 12-6 before the home crowd. The Fliers then journeyed to Clark the following week and were downed by a score of 35—6. The Fliers got their first win of the season the next game, when they beat Sisscton 19-0 for their Homecoming. The next time Flandreau played, they were defeated 67—21 by Redfield. The Fliers bounced back the following week and earned their second victory by downing Clear Lake 20-12. The squad was victorious over Britton by a score of 26-14 in the next game. The team traveled to Milbank for the final game of the season and was defeated 56—13. The Fliers made 27 first downs this season with an average of 229 yards per game.

Chuck Walker chalked up 71 tackles followed closely by Scott Ramsdell with 70; Jamie Hasvold, 64; Randy Jewett, 59; and Mike Skroch with 57. Bill Armstrong 6’5 210 lbs., senior, was named All-State defensive guard for the ’68 season. Another senior, Randy Jewett, was named to the Honorable mention All-State team. Coach McGlone said he is expecting the best team in 10 years next year with 8 starters and 22 lettermen returning. Alert coaches review future plans for defense. 36 Jim Fargen Randy Jewett Dave Johnson Chuck Walker Bill Armstrong Steve Solsaa Seniors and Managers Paul Thelcn Dan Vigness FOOTBALL SCHEDULE TEAM WE THEY Madison 0 41 Hartford 7 13 Webster 6 12 Clark 6 35 Sisseton 19 0 Red field 21 67 Gear Lake 20 12 Britton 26 14 Milbank 13 56 Byron Solem 37 Front Row: Duane Johnson, Larry Whaley, Mike Neal, Steve Millman, Ricky LaLonde, Bill Stewart, DeVere Headrick, Bruce Lee.

These pictures show the cross-country boys working out in preparation for their meets. They run a distance course which varies from 1.75 miles to 2.2 miles. At practices, however, they run much further than that for condition purposes. Cross-country is a rather new sport and is attracting more and more participants each year. A rigorous course for training. The cross country team, under the coaching of Eldon Barnes, had a good season, placing under 7th place in all but one meet. The seniors were helped by many underclassmen who showed promise for the coming year. The team made their best showing at the Northeast Conference Meet (Gark) by finishing in 3rd place. Other meets consisted of Brookings, Pipestone, Gear Lake Invitational, Lennox Tri State, Clark Invitational, and a dual with Brandon Valley. The team placed 12th in the State Meet. The Jr. Varsity team also made good showings at the meets which they attended. They gained much experience that will help them in the future seasons. 39 A time of rest for the Tired Feet.

If the past is an indication of the future, FHS can expect a better varsity season next year because the “B” team ended their 1968 1969 season with a win-loss record of 12-5. They defeated Brandon Valley, Milbank, Madison, and Britton each once; and Redfield, Sisseton, Webster, and Clear Lake each twice. The “B” Team members were Back Row (1. to r.)

It was started last year and gained in popularity. The class consisted of underclassmen who were trying to improve themselves for next year’s sport season. They started out with calisthenics to loosen up and then they got down to real work, lifting weights. They met every day of the week for an hour during the winter months. The weightlifters were coached by James McGlone and David Achesen. 42 Individualized Sport Brings Rewards Chuck Walker awaits the referee’s final whistle. The N. E.

Awards night might be classed among the most important events of a Senior’s High School years. On this important occasion the Seniors are awarded for their never ending loyalty and spirit to their school. The Sen- iors who received these awards have truly earned them. They’ve worked determin- edly to grasp knowledge and to fulfill their educational needs. It’s not always easy for one to keep working and to achieve the learning he desires. Some may give up and fall to the wayside, but the determined ones will plunge forward and seek more and more knowledge throughout the years. These are the ones who will succeed and be rewarded for their excellent attitudes and their strong determination. 71 The address for the graduation exercises was given by Dr. Richard D.
