Carnival Strikes Again The second annual H-Club Carnival took place on December 13. The money raised went to pay for the new universal gym. Raffle tickets were sold on a deer rifle won by Jerry Cowman and a $50 grocery certificate won by Clifford Volek. Booths were constructed of plywood and decorated in numerous colors of crepe paper. Games such as the dart throw, ball throw, fish pond, bean bag toss were played. Cakes were donated by the students for the cake walk. The main attraction this year was the jail. You could pay to have your friends locked up and then they had to pay the same amount to be released. Bingo was played at the carnival all night long. Students donated green stamp books which were redeemed for other prizes. A controversy arose over the mem- bership qualities of an H-Club member. The outcome of the ruling was that anyone who wanted to be a member of H-Club had to pay a due of one quarter, which allowed them to become members. The Athletic Banquet was held April 22nd. The awards given out were Football, Most Valuable, Terry Myers; Captain, John Kennedy. Wrestling, Most Valuable, Mike Cadman; Captain, John Kennedy. Girls Basketball, Most Valuable, Robin Boiler; Most Improved, Angela Arendt; Captains, Susan Klebsch and Robin Boiler. Boys Basketball, Most Valuable, Barry Cermak; Most Improved, Jim Cowman.

Success With Failure Homecoming or Pirate Day, began in 1931 and has contin- ued throughout the decades. On September 25, 1975, the forty-fourth king and queen were honored to reign over H. H.S. Chosen were King Pat Ankrum and Queen Cheryl Rissman. Attendants were Janet Bonnichsen, Chuck Ham- lin, Brenda Nickelson, and Jeff Whiting. Crownbearers were Terrie Mehrer and Darin Larson. Performing the Coro- nation was Marshal Marty Melvin. A skit, pep rally and then the first 'burning of the H' completed the night. When Homecoming Day finally arrived on September 26, it was an extremely windy event. When the floats, which reflected the theme Ameri- can Revolution , were pulled from the security of the build- ings into the open air, the wind quickly disrupted the work of the students. Highmore lost a heart- breaking game to Gettysburg with a score 32-0. Highmore was plaqued with mistake and unable to score. For some it was success and others it was failure, but whichever it was, it is now in the past. 7
