I 1959 Succaneeb Cdited. fey Jhe Senior CloAA. Ojj Jleola otticfk School Aome (Djj 7he PisuU L i Peie MeaAun i Sestio Just as Pirate Pete will never grow old in the hearts of clan mem- bers who have advanced from lowly boots to mighty yeomen under his watchful eye, so their home port, the Leola schools, pictured on the end sheets of this book, will ever be the bigaest and the finest in existence to them. Their recol- lections of exactly what happened when may become dim and confused in the future, but memories of the treasures gained and their storage place will always be bright. Symbolic of the many treasures they have stored up in Pirate Petefs chest in their years as members of the Pirate clan are the rings of the senior class of 1959. Emblems especially of four years of individual high school achievement, the bands are also group Insignia, showing all observ- ers what a united Pirate clan can do. Delving under their treasured rings in a review of the gems they have added to Petef.s horde, the seniors draw forth and display their united ac- complishments as members of winning athletic, musical, and Journalistic groups. Loot captured by individuals includes Esther Haul’s state recogni- tion as an essayist, Mabel Schockfs editorial, and Mabel and Darlys Ber- rethfs article published in a national magazine; Karen Muhlbeier’s reign as Miss FEM and Miss Leola; Frank Bain’s sport’s story award; outstanding roles in school plays; Marless Krein’s superior rating as a soloist; lead- ership in local church youth organizations by various seniors and on the district level by Darlis Bain, MYF sub-district vice-president;Darlys Schanzenbach’s letter published In Practical English magazine; Esther Haul’s term as Pasque District secretary and her being chosen as area win- ner in the Elks Leadership Contest this spring; and many more personal triumphs in scholarship and accom- pli shments. Although Pete may firmly defend his seat on the Dead Man’s Chest to keep the curious from rattling any skele- tons that may have collected there during the seniors’ trick at LHS, his chest will still expand mightily as he remembers the treasures they left for future members of his clan to see and emulate. 2 c7'eacJt if fyn4£4 rcuu 9 tA xinxUuyn lisuyucjli tli rl ea iA. to QnadUtaiio+t With pride and pleasure, we, the senior class, dedicate this Buccaneer to our teacher and frlend,Mrs.Gertrud L. Becker. In the various classes we have had under her guidance during our four years together, she has not only taught us textbook facts and ma- terials but has also Inspired us to do some original thinking and to seek the basic principles and values of life in all we study and do. Her four years as Journalism teacher and adviser of the yearbook have made this a finer and better memory book. As originator of Pirate Pete,she has given new life to this publi - cation. As adviser of many of the activities In which we have ta- ken part, she has become someone to whom we could come for guid- ance and understanding. For these reasons,which are only a few of many, we dedicate this annual to Mrs. Becker. 3 li y Quide 6u i l4Jay 9n I OoaJz and Play BERNARD HILSENDEGER-B.S.,NSTC; M.5.in Education,NSTC.Super I n- tendent; office practice,book- keeping; student council and senior class adviser.

Four of the five winners attended. The Leola group returned home early ato attend the prom that evening. Perhaps some of the happiest moments of our school years have been those spent in reminiscing about what we did then and what fun we had there as classmates and friends. Recalling the past is a popular pastime when old friends meet, we know. Therefore, as we prepare to part, we rummage through Petefs treasure chest and review Just a few of the high- lights of our years together In the Leola schools. May they serve as the spark for many an Interesting conversa- tion among old friends In future years. We studied when we were soph- omores. Freshman initiation--werenft we cute? Seventh grade float depicted discovery of America. 7 'Wide Netu A ue vtuA i With Pete as our mascot and often our mentor, we ve made the long voyage from our days as boots to our present rank of yeomen. Dedicated teachers have led us not only through textbooks and factual knowledge but also to creative thought and an awakening understanding of and interest in ourselves, our fellow men, and the world about us. Wefve tried to prove worthy of the effort and love our parents and teachers have invested in us. Perhaps the trea- sures we1ve left in Pirate Petefs chest- our group and individual achievements- wi11 serve as a token interest payment to them. Our days as active clan members are numbered. When next we return to our home port, LHS, it will be as explorers of the wider world back for a visit. However, although wefll enjoy viewing the gems and trophies we ve left behind to inspire younger clan members, we know that we� ve taken from Petefs chest the biggest treasure of them all-the guid- ance and training in worthwhile living which, as the end result of our educa- tion, have started us out beyond many scholastic reefs and shoals and have set our helm toward wider, richer, fuller lives.

BiUflit Training and polishing the boots from their kindergarten days until their grad- uation to seamanship, the eight grade teachers have their own special corner of treasures in Petefs chest. In their minds1 eye are reflected the many gems of happy memories of youngsters awa- kening to the new and wider world the classroom opens to them. From wiping runny noses and tying shoes, to intro- ducing algebra and training the young citizens in government, Petefs faithful mates have kept a watchful eye and guid- ing hand on their young charges, reaping as the chief reward for their own trea- sure chests the knowledge that their guidance has given the boots a good hold and a firm boost up on the ladder they will climb to yeomanship. 21 MRS.

Have milk-will drink. Under the supervision of Superintendent Hilsendeger, who Introduced the program this year and made preliminary arrange- ments, the Leola schools1 milk program Is definitely a popular and beneficial ven- ture. Teachers are happy with the improved alertness the ffmilk break seems to give their pupils,while the youngsters not only enjoy drinking the milk but also benefit from its addition to their diet. The milk program has proved to be one of the finest treasures added to Petefs chest this year. Through the closing day of school in February, 20,392 half pints of milk had been distributed among Leola high school and grade students. Monthly distributions were as follows: September-1,514.7; October- 3 675;November-3331 ;December-3,12I4.5 January -J4.,6l$;February-l4.f600 half pints. An aver- age of 250 half pints of milk is distribu- ted each day, with 220 being chocolate and 30 plain. All grade students who want milk are now able to receive it through financial help of organizations and individual do- nors in the community. Milk is distributed to the grade students during morning re- cess periods and at lunch time.High school students eating their lunch at school re- ceive their milk at lunch time. Basketball players had milk available to them at the end of their practice periods. Pass a straw please! Sipping through a straw. M-m-good!

As we dig into our treasure chest, we find that the Leola Pirates completed one of the best gridiron seasons in the school’s history. Their battle ribbons are the cuts and bruises caused by the enemy. Though they wn their laurels the hard way, the Pirates set some school records in the battles.The rousing I4.3-20 victory over Ashley gave Pirate Petefs heroes the most points ever scored by any of his boys In eleven man football, and their six-win record was the best ever brought home In the history of LHS.

Leola came out victorious in one out of two meetings with its highly re- garded and old rivals,Eureka, and beat another rival, Ip- swich, in two regular season games to make Coach Kretch- manfs first year as head coach a success in itself. Leola lost three of the four last games as Aberdeen beat them for the second time and dropped the Pirates Into third place in the final N.C.C. standings. 31 Making Each A Pirate Hero Bombers9 Score Was Six To Zero Coach Schumacherfs Bombers had an excellent season, compiling a re- cord of 12 victories against only 5 losses.
