Problem Solving Slate Bowl Becomes A Tradition SENIOR HIGH PROBLEM SOLVING TEAM ■ Front: Amy DeJonge. Brenda Swarthout, Ronda Soker. Back Heike Klein. Chris Eynon, Susan Pollock. Mr Hays. Once again this year, the H.H.S. problem solvers did very well. The problems of the world that they attempted to solve this year throughout the course of the year were: Drunk Driving, Nuclear Waste, Efficiency of Education, and the Green House Effect. Because all three teams (Elementary, Intermediate Senior) did well on these problems, they all qualified for the state bowl in Kearney, making Hildreth the first school ever to accomplish this. One of the competitions held at the State Bowl was the Skit competition. The senior high team, coached by Mr. Hays, received first place in their division, acting the tale of Dorky (Dorothy) and her dog DoDo (Toto). The elementary team, coached by Miss Laue, received third place in their division, while the Intermediate Team received honorable mention under the direction of Miss Pollard. In the problem competition, the elementary team finished third, while the senior and Intermediate Teams received fourth place in their respective divisions.
