There’s a season for maturing when we think, and work, and grow... There’s a season for the harvesting of all we’ve come to know. And each successive season grows still richer than the last as treasures of the present add to memories of the past. -Karen Ravn- 2 Contents Opening 3 this is the place 'highmore' Highmore is a small rural com- munity about 50 miles north and east of the South Dakota state ca- pital, Pierre, on Highway 14.

In Memory Dale Zaylor 1962-1980 Sometimes the hardest part of hurting is refusing to allow ourselves to hurt at al; the tears must come so weep then if you will you are not alone. -Norma Brick- Dale was described by friends as be- ing quiet and reserved. His favorite col- or was blue. He enjoyed listening to rock music. One of Dale’s interests was mechanics. He worked with his dad at Pioneer Garage. Summer was Dale’s favorite time of year. This was the season that he could become thi most involved in his hobby, car racing. If you attended the car races at Huron or Miller, you were sure to see an orange Ford with the number 06 wheeling around the track. Dale and Loren Wheelhouse owned this car. Dale was born June 20. 1962. He had three older sisters. He was a member of Highmore’s class of “80” since his first year of school. Dale was killed in a car accident, January 6, 1980, near Topeka. Kansas. Also killed were his father, Neil, and his mother, Carol. The Seniors suffered a great loss when Dale was killed. He had many good friends who will never forget him or all the good times they had. UPPER LEFT: Bruce Tabbert and Dale share a joke while Troy Bruce lis- tens in. LEFT: Dale, with his race car.

The choices were to have it in your own church, have it together with commencement, or to leave it the way it has been done in the past. Most of the seniors felt that the school should keep the tradition of having it on the Sunday before graduation with the whole class attending together. The Baccalaureate service was conducted on Sunday, May 11, at 8:00 p.m. at the Hyde Co. Auditorium. The high school band played the processional and recessional. The invocation was then delivered by Pastor Ed Youngquist. “Walk the Path of Peace,” and “How Beautiful Life Can Be were the selections sung by the mixed chorus. The scripture was read by Pastor Paul Middlesworth with Pastor Hilmore Williams fol- lowing with a prayer. The ser- mon was provided by Pastor Orland Sloat. The services were brought to a close when Pastor Ed Youngquist was again called upon to deliver the benediction. Baccalaureate 15 OPPOSITE PAGE: TOP: With tassales on the right.

Office Occupation, Typing I and II were taught by Renee Gauer. Typing I learned the basic skills of typing while Typing II students moved on to more com- plex letters and drills. The con- cept of keeping good records and taxes were instructed in the Ac- counting classes. In Business Law, they worked with con- tracts, abstracts and even had a mock trial. Office Occupation classes were taught steps of fil- ing, suplicatlon, transcriber, and office assistant. They acted like secretaries by typing letters, en- volopes, inter-office memos, re- feral slips and other forms that go along with being a secretary. Another thing learned in Office Occupations was how to run the different adding machines and dito machine. Commercial Arts 49 P.E. classes were under the direction of Mr. Tim Mulhair. Freshmen were required to take P.E. but the class was open to everyone. Several sophomores took advantage of this class. P.E. has not been a required class since 1974. The past few years it has been offered as ei- ther an elective or not at all. Many activities were enjoyed throughout the year. A high- light of the year was the bus rides to Plamor Lanes for bowl- ing. P.E. was often used as a UPPER LEFT: The car for Driver's Ed. was donated by the Pioneer Garage.

They were “Memori- al”, “Turret Rose” and “Echo”. “Echo” was dramatized at region- al contest held in Huron, January 19. It received a superior so ad- vanced on to state, at Vermillion, January 31 through February 2.

Plays 59 SPRING PLAY Appalachian Mountains Set The Scene “Where the Lilies Bloom was a three-act play put on April 11, with Miss Nancy Iverson directing it. The play took place in the Ap- palachian Mountains. Young Mary Call Luther had spunk, guts, spirit,-call it what you will, and she needed them if she was to keep her family togeth- er after the death of her father. To do this she had to hide her father’s death from the county welfare, from Kiser Pease, their landlord, and from the townspeople. Kiser wanted desperately to marry De- vola, Mary Call’s older sister, a dreamy, quiet deceptively retiring girl. Keeping Kiser Pease and the townsfolk away gave the play su- spence and humor. As Mary Call grows up through her crises, she learned and taught her brother and sisters some of the best and funniest lessons. In the end the family won in an unexpected way. They got to keep their land and the house, but best of all they got to stav together. Michelle Youngquist was picked for best actress while Victor Ne- mee was awarded best actor and Dorinda VVeidenbach received supporting role. They were voted on by the rest of the cast members after the production of the play. TOP RIGHT: If any snakes try to bother me. I’ll kick 'em in the behinds, says Vic- tor Nemec.

During the 79-80 school year, many events took place that affected everyone’s lives. It seemed that everywhere we looked we saw signs of Campaign ’80. Nuclear power was a big ques- tion of the year with a nuclear power plant explosion at Three Mile Island. Taking hostages seemed to be a new fad this year as Iran took 53 American to be re- leased at the return of the Shah. Canada proved itself as a kind, neighborly country by helping six American citizens get back home. Prices of oil from the OPEC na- tions kept going up, along with gold and silver. With many Americans buying foreign cars, the Chrysler Corp. had to look to the government for financial help. At the Winter Olympics, Eric Hei- den won 5 gold medals and the U.S. Hockey team upset the Rus- sians. The Summer Olympics to be held in Russia were boycotted by the U.S. and several other countries because the Russians would not withdraw from Af- ghanistan. Students began to real- ize they may be facing the possi- bility of a draft in order to help build up the national defense sys- tem. The ERA deadline was ex- tended. India’s Mother Therese won the Nobel Peace Prize. The crash of a DC 10 in Chicago claimed many lives and also grounded other DC 10’s while they were investigated. Pope John Paul II made a visit to Iowa. Paul McCartney was arrested in Japan for possession of marijuana. Wal- ter Cronkite announced his retire- ment and Muhammed Ali an- nounced his intentions to try and win his world title back. Christine Onassis filed for a divorce from her Russian husband. Erik Es- trada, from CHIPS, got married. O.J. Simpson retired from foot- ball. Tracy Austin beat Chris Ev- erett Lloyd in tennis. The Pitts- burgh Steelers stole the Super Bowl and the Pittsburgh Pirates won the World Series. Mt. St. He- len’s volcano erupted, sending a cloud of volcanic ash across the nation. Uprisings over racial dif- ferences occurred in Florida. Cu- ban refugees flocked to America. Secretary of State Cyrus Vance left office and Senator Muskey from Maine replaced him. This was the year we lost actors John Wayne and David Jansen, Yugos- lavia’s Head of State Tito, Arch- bishop Fulton Sheen, the creator of ’Lil Abner, A1 Capp, Former First Lady Mamie Eisenhauer, jazz band leader Stan Kenton, and Herbert Zeppo Marx, the last of the Marx brothers. At the local level through the year, a blizzerd Halloween night shook up the area by knocking out power for up to 2Vi weeks in some places. After this first had ice storm the winter was rather mild with far less than the average snowfall. As a result, this part of the country became quite dry and people began to get ready to face another drought. Late in May, Gov. Bill Janklow declared the state a disaster area. Railroads were a big controversy in South Dakota with many small towns fighting to keep them open. Woodstoves became a popular thing to have and laws had to be enforced to keep people from chopping down trees at Farm Is- land, near Pierre. Highmore’s girls basketball team made it through the season undefeated but were knocked out of tournament play by Agar. Clear Lake took the girls title. In boys basketball, Armour’s winning streak was broken by Beresford, Lyman Co. went on to become State ‘B’ champs. Wres- tling grew to be a strong sport over the year and two Highmore Sen- iors took 6th in state. They were Rod Kusser and Brett Singleton. Car accidents took their share of lives this year. An accident near Mitchell claimed the lives of peo- ple from Letcher and Sioux Falls. A Huron cheerleader was killed near Washington Springs on her way to a basketball tournament in Rapid City. Three members of a Highmore family, Neil, Carol, and Senior Dale Taylor were killed on their way home from Texas. Ree Heights residents protested the closing of the brick school build- ing in that community. Over fifty people were arrested in that pro- test. In two years it will be High- more’s centennial. A new bank building is under construction. Citizens found themselves voting on whether or not cable TV should be brought into the area. The high school purchased a video tape machine with the help of the Action Club. Popular TV shows included MASH, 60 Minutes, Dukes of Hazzard, and Dallas. CBS kept everyone wondering through the summer who shot J.R. Movies of the year were The Champ, Kramer vs. Kramer, The Electric Horseman, Muppet Mov- ie, Silent Scream, Little Darlings, and Rocky II. Everyone was look- ing forward to the chance to see The Empire Strikes Back, a sequel to Star Wars. This was a very good year for the music groups of The Cars, Foghat, and Van Halen. Songs that were popular were The Rose, Call Me, Brick in the Wall, Sharing the Night Together, Please Don’t Go, Babe, and a song of Anne Murray’s, Daydream Be- liever. Among country music fans, Eddie Rabbitt was quite popular, along with Kenny Rogers. Larry Gatlin was famous for his big hit, All the Gold in California. As far as fashions went, girls started wearing dresses more often. They also wore high heeled shoes with everything from dresses to jeans. Disco jeans and painter’s pants made their big appearance this year. T-shirts with all kinds of sayings were very popular. The girls turned to curlier hairstyles and boys hair had taken on a more trimmed look. Fads also appeared in the way people talked. It was not uncommon for someone to tell you they would give you a dime to o call someone who cared, ayings from Saturday Night Live were popular. It also seemed that no matter what happened, a few people would always say, “That’s fine, just fine.” We realize that we came far from covering all of the events that took place but we hope we covered enough so you can re- member what made this year unique and special to us. Student Life 65 m vi. A VVI Spirit Spells Success Instead of the traditional screening and student body vote for determining cheer- leaders, the high school had college cheerleaders from Huron come and judged the participants. The usual 5-member squad for the varsity sports was cut to 4-members and only 3 for the “B Squad.” Under the direction of Mrs. Whiting and Mrs. Mul- hair, the girls conducted var- ious activities such as paint- ing signs and making cookies for the athletes. They also sold Pirate Buttons, conces- sions at Grade School games, and had a car wash to help meet expenses. All of the girls put energy and time into practice and preparation for games, matches and pep assemblies. OPPOSITE PAGE: LEFT: Beaming HHS Cheerleaders are. Front; J. La- Fortune, L Garrigan, B.

Pirates Win Homecoming But Lose Conference The 1979 football season was coached for the second year, by Gus Anderson. He handled the offensive backs and his assistant Bill Mover coached the linemen. Thirty-one boys were out for football. The Pirates defeated the Sully Buttes Chargers 26-0 in the first game. They lost the next two games to Harrold and Chamberlain but came back for their Homecoming game. After six years of losing homecoming they were elated by defeating the Palkton Trojans 12-6. Good sportsmanship and guidance were exhibited by the nine seniors. A desire for a winning record was stopped by the Mobridge Tigers. The Pirates won their last two games over- powering Onida and Gettysburg. The Pirates ended the season with a record of four and five, and a confer- ence record of three and two. Jim Jen- nings, Justin Kusser, and Rod Kusser were chosen all-conference team while Dave Steensen, Brad Ryan, Randy Shaull, and Derick Wortman were honorable mentions of Coach Anderson.

High- more prevailed over Lyman Co., Wolsey, and Miller, which were all rated in the top ten. Highmore was ranked as high as 4. The Pirates won the LCAC championship. The girls were also triumphant in the Big Bend Tournament. Each week the coaches chose of- fensive and defensive players. For their work the players earned stuffed Pirate mascot dogs. The girls helped keep the spirit through Homecoming Week by wearing their costumes to the game on Costume Day. They attended a show in Pierre and got caught in a snowstorm. Before the districts, the coach invited the team for suppes,, and some Good-Luck cake. Bonnie Boiler was selected to the second team of the 1979-80 S.D. Class B All-State teams.

Girls Basketball 71 Balanced Positions Offer Depth Under the leadership of Coach Roger Kdwards, the ‘B' team assem- bled a record of 10 wins and 7 losses. The team had a well-balanced number of guards, forwards, and centers. The bench was able to sup- ply the needed positions with ease when someone needed a rest or was in foul trouble. The starting five was usually decided upon before each game, so many of the players had the chance to start. Several of the more experienced squad members dressed both ‘A’ and ‘B’ team. The squad had many close games, but with a lot of determination they came out on top in most of them. Both games with Harrold ended in a tie but after three minutes of over- time play, Highmore wound up win- ning them. The Junior Varsity and Freshman teams had four games this season. The JV team was comprised of ev- eryone on the ‘A squad that wasn't a starter and a few members of the ‘B’ team. The inexperienced ‘B’ members made up the Freshman team. Polo, Crow Creek, and two games with Gettysburg, were the competition for the events.

John Arendt was selected most valuable out of the whole team, boys and girls. The spirit was aroused again this year by Coach Han- sen for a golf team in high school. With an inexperienced team it was hard to get start- ed, but as the season pro- gressed they gained more en- thusiasm. They only partici- pated in a few meets through the season. Then they went to regionals in Aberdeen, but un- fortunately no one advanced to the state meet.

Highmore played a daz- zling defense and was the first team to hold the highly re- garded Crow Creek team un- der 100 points.

They de- feated the Pierre JV s in first round play-hut were defeated by Sully Buttes the next game. They defeated Rutland in the final round for 3rd place. In District 15 play, the Pi- rates drew a bye. They were defeated in the 2nd game by Agar.

It was composed of 4 sophomores, 2 freshman, 5 eighth graders, and I seventh grader. With only 13 High school boys out for basketball, there was a great need for the Jr. High boys. The Jr. High boys played a great deal of the time in the ‘B' games. With only 4 experienced sopho- mores on the team the boys were able to get some good advice and valuable playing time. The young but determined team won 4 of their 14 games. They won their first game 52-47 in a double overtime against Sully Buttes. They lost their next 6 games, due to the loss of some players going to the ‘A’ squad. The next win came from a hard and well played game against Gettys- burg. The Pirates were on top at the end of the game 45-43. This years ‘B’ team was a little weak because of all the recruits to the ‘A’ team. The ‘B’ team played an important part in the practices, they were constantly working the ‘A’ squad to perfection. They played offense and the defense of the opposing team. This years 'B' team players will be major part of next years ‘A’ team. LEFT: A Scott Ptkmk � turn� into Ui� hulk. Mai Wu«m� n 24. Randy Houdek 32. and Rob Hair 10. wonder where ii want.

Injuries plagued the team, causing them to compile a 2- 10 season. Although, many outstanding individual perfor- mances were given. Highmore attended six tournaments; Central Confer- ence, Onida Invitational, Get- tysburg Invitational, Districts, Regions, and State. Many Pi- rate wrestlers brought home medals from these tourna- ments and the team finished third overall in the Gettys- burg Tourney. With the number one team in the State, Mobridge, in our District competition was stiff. Highmore wrestlers Todd Hertel, Rod Kusser, Gary Mewes, Derick Wortman, Brett Singleton and Tigh Cowan all placed in the top four at Districts to earn their way to Regions held in Ft. Pierre. Highmore surprised everyone by capturing the third place trophy and ad- vancing four matmen to State. Those were: Rod Kusser, Der- ick Wortman, Brett Singleton, and Tigh Cowan.

Wrestling 83 See How They Run The girl tracksters had a very successful season. The boys season was not as successful but it was a rebuilding year for them. No sport demands the individ- ual dedication required by track and field. Even though they were small in quantity they were large in quality. The hard work paid off by the girls setting nine new school re- cords. Twyla Mize set new records in the 100 meter dash with a time of 12.73 and the 200 meter dash with a time of 27.14. The record in the 800 meter and 1600 meter runs were broken by Kathy Arendt with a time of 2:28.68 and 6:00.00 respectively. Breaking their own records were Mary Jane Lusk in the discus and Lori Garrigan in the 165 meter hurdles with a throw of 108’ 8” and a time of 24.26.

The 1980 staff worked many long hours trying to keep up the president of winning an all- state. Time rushed by with deadlines pushing the staff. It was time to settle down and get to work. Un- der Mrs. Neuharth’s patient guid- ance, meetings were held several nights a week as deadlines were due. 88 Hisodak The senior editors were Kathy Arendt, Bonnie Boiler and Peggy Schuette. They were assisted by juniors Lori Garrigan, Trish Kusser, and Dorinda Weidenbach and sophomores Lisa Oligmueller, Max Wortman, and Mike Young- quist. Knowing that the yearbook is one of the most valued items a high school student takes with them, as well as a historical record of the school year makes the time and effort worthwhile. OPPOSITE PAGE.

PIRATE JOURNAL Three Share Responsibility j The Pirate Journal was a bi- monthly publication put out by editors Mike Oligmueller, Sandi Rubendall, and Peggy Schuette. Jr. Editor Darwin Williams also assisted with layout. Ms. Nancy Iversen advised the staff on sto- ries. Many students served as re- porters and typists to make up the remaining staff. The editors worked on lay-out every other Monday and Tuesday at the Highmore Herald office with Herald office workers assist- ing them. It was a challenge to get stories written and typed. The staff was inexperienced at putting a paper together but by trial and error and a little brain power, the paper was published. J Pirate Journal 89 DEBATE Experience Lacking In Debate This year a debate class was ad- ded to the curriculm. Seven stu- dents participated in the class. Mike Oligmueller, Lisa Olig- mueller, and Max Wortman were the only experienced debaters. They along with Miss Iverson, the teacher and debate coach, familur- ized the novice debaters of debate procedures. Mike Youngquist, Todd Neu- harth, Julie Oligmueller, Lisa Oligmueller, and John Arendt made up the novice team. John Arendt and Lisa Oligmueller al- ternated being partners with Julie Oligmueller. Other members of the class in- cluded Mike Oligmueller, Martin Buholtz, and Max Wortman. Mar- tin and Max didn’t participate in debate tournaments, Mike Olig- mueller, was often asked to go along and judge. At the CFC held in Pierre, the novice team placed 2nd overall. The Neggative team, consisting of Mike Youngquist and Todd Neu- harth, earned a record of 3 wins and 0 losses. The Affermitive team, consisting of John Arendt and Julie Oligmueller, received a record of 0 wins and 3 losses. In State ‘B” Debate, held in Huron, Mike Youngquist and Todd Neu- harth, placed 4th. 90 Debate DECLAM Twelve Students Compete Locally The year of declam was a good one for a few students at H.H.S. Twelve students prepared their declam pieces for the local contest held at the Lutheran Church of Highmore. Only one in every divi- sion could go to districts. Jim Anderson, Victor Nemec, Valla Johnson, Dona Stoley, and Mike Oligmueller qualified for districts. Dona and Mike qualified for regionals, and then went on to state. Dona and Mike competed against kids from big towns like Vermillion, Rapid City, and Souix Falls because declam is not divid- ed into “A” and “B” schools. Dona did a very emotional seri- ous prose, it was called Tell Me You Love Me Julie Moon. Mike did a serious drama piece, it was called The Zoo Story. They both received excellent ratings at state. Coach Carolyn Anderson said, “Dona and Mike did quality work during the year and put forth a superior effort at state.” OPPOSITE PAGE: TOP LEFT: Front Row; Julie Oligmueller, John Arendt, Mike Youngquist.

FUTURE HOMEMAKERS OF AMERICA Climax Is Minneapolis Trip The Future Homemakers of America started out their busy year under the direction of six of- ficers lead by President Dorinda Weidenbach. Pizza and spagetti suppers were held and during the year, favors were often taken to the Nursing Home. FHA Week was held February 18-23. During the week the FHA chapter tried to promote FHA to the school and community. Everyone was urged to participate in the activities held on different days of the week. Such as; hair day, stuffed animal day, cupcake day and inside out day. The week ended with the crowning of the Sweetheart queen and FFA king. Ben Hart and Mari Cowan were chosen to reign over the fesitivities. The Regional meeting was held in Miller this year.

The Senior girls attended Little I in Brookings during March. The highlight of the year was the trip to Minneapolis. Thirty-two girls and seven mothers traveled by bus to Minneapolis for three days. While there they toured many places and went the Chanhessen Dinner Theater. To make enough money for this trip they had many money-making projects. They held bake sales, a chili supper, sold cards, held a basketball game between KGFX and the Jaycees, sold concessions and had a sock hop. On May 19, the Mother’s Tea was held, a salad buffet followed by the naming of honorary mem- berships, which were presented to Mrs. LaVonne Kusser and Mrs. Alice Buchheim.

FHA FUTURE FARMERS OF AMERICA Preparing For Progress The FFA Chapter did a few dif- terent things this year. They worked on a Building Our South Dakota Communities landscaping project at the school. This project was created under the Dept, of Ag- riculture. The chapter won an area award for the project. They also had a project at the experiment farm, building a fence around newly planted seedlings. The state FFA secretary David Doppenberg visited the Highmore chapter and talked to the students. Road trips the chapter took were to the Little I in Brookings and to the state convention. Re- presentatives from Highmore that went to the national FFA conven- tion in Kansas City were Suzy Kusser and Scott Pekarek. The club sold popcorn this year in- stead of fruit to raise money for the state convention. RODEO CLUB Rodeo Is Good Entertainment Again this year the enthusiasm, in high school, to rodeo spread like a fever. The club had a total of 56 members to make up one of the more vigorous teams around. The team attended a number of rodeo’s in the area, Cheyenne Ea- gle Butte, Winner, Chamberlain, Regionals at Watertown, and State at New Underwood. High- more held a sanctioned rodeo on May 11th, Mothers Day. Marty Wortman was our senior advisor and Mike Volek and Con- nie Hoffman were our advisors. President was Rod Kusser, vice president was Tigh Cowan, and secretary-treasurer was Trish Kusser. The club held a dance on Thanksgiving and sponsored the Sweethearts dance. The club also painted the rodeo arena as a pro- ject for the Round Up Club. OPPOSITE PAGE: TOP. FFA: Kneel ing; C. Rinehart. S. Peterson. B. No- votny. B. Whipple, B. Stirling, M. Aasby.
