DEDICATION In appreciation for all the kindness and concern you have shown us, Mr. Gordon Schanzenbach, we, the senior class, dedicate our 1967 Buccaneer. Within these past four years, your instruction has helped us to prepare for the future. As we reminisce about our years at LHS, we will stop to evaluate your leadership and guidance, and the importance they have at- tributed to our success. In addition to teaching, your role as advisor of the Pirate Chatter has helped us to remember each memorable event and in turn given us the op- portunity to say, We came, we saw, and we'll never forget!

Grades .............. 3 5 17 21 29 37 45 51 'LL NEVER FORGET Our high school days have been filled with many cherished moments. Some we remember better than others such as that important game we wanted so much to win, our freshman ini- tiation which made us official members of LHS, the class parties and picnics, the thrill of being a senior, and at last, the wonderful feeling of accomplishment when that coveted diploma is securely in our possession. To help remember these special moments, we present to you, the student body of Leola High School, this 1 957 Buccaneer. Many hours were spent by the editors and advisor on the production of the 1967 BUCCANEER. SEATED, from left to right: Ruth Neuharth, co-editor; Mr. Swanson, advisor; Brenda Maier, co- editor.

Continuing the reorganization of our new school district and a- warding contracts toward the ad- dition of the new wing to the high school constituted the main pro- jects of the school board through- out the school year. Several advancements approved by these individuals include the recreation program held on Satur- days for both girls and boys for all ages, the shop class held for high school boys on Monday and Thurs- day nights, and the purchase of the new bus which has transported the L Club, the Music Club, and the seniors on their various trips throughout the year.

They study the fundamentals of our government, and par- ticipate in various activities concerning these foundations. Ruth Neuharth attended Girls' State on the campus of Dakota Wesleyan Uni- versity in Mitchell. Northern State College in Aberdeen was the site of the 1966 Boys' State. Jerry Heupel spent a very informative week when he attended this year's session. The alternates chosen were Kathleen Bender and Paul Kindlespire. Judy Brandner was chosen DAR (Daughter of the American Revolution) candidate to represent Leola High School in the County DAR Contest. She was chosen for qualities of dependability, service, lead- ership, and patriotism. Lenora Lovo is Leola High School's 1967 Betty Crocker of Tomorrow. She was awarded a specially designed silver charm from General Mills, sponsor of the Betty Crocker Search for the American Home- maker of Tomorrow.

Looking back over our years at LHS, as a class, we have accomplished much. Starting as freshmen, our first responsibility was to prove ourselves worthy of becoming part of the student body. Being sophomores meant initiating the incoming freshmen and sponsoring the Sweetheart Ball. The highlight of our junior year was the plan- ning and the arrival of the Junior-Senior Prom on May 12, 1966o All of these led to the final year at LHS. As we realize our final events: September 23, 1966 .............. Homecoming October 28, 1966 ............ Halloween November 9, 1 966 December 10, 1 966. February 8, 1967 .. February 11,1 967 .

GRADUATION Each one of these events has a special place in our hearts. Our class is proud of the various honors achieved by 1967 graduates. As a class, we are proud to say, We came, we saw, and we'll never forget and to pay our last adieu to the home of the Pirates - LHS!

The praising of our clean school is credited to the custodians, Mr. Floyd Hammrich and Mr. John Bendewald. They can be classified among the most ambitious and hard- est working because they are the first to enter and the last to leave the halls of LHS everyday. They have also kept our auditorium very neat for all the evening activities. Not only serving as secretary for both Su- perintendent Clark Sc hemp and Principal James Erdahl, but also being in charge of the Hot Lunch Program constitutes Mrs. Ruth Geffre's main duties. Ruth also helps all the teachers with running off tests and helps Mr. Erdahl record the grades on the report card. HELPERS PROVE TO BE GREAT ASSET AT LHS Being it is the second year of the Hot Lunch program, the cooks have a bet- ter knowledge of the students' likes and dislikes. The three main cooks, Mrs. Anna Jakober, Mrs. Paulene Maule, and Mrs. Irene Swanson, pre- pared nutritious meals for the 350 stu- dents each day. A new addition to the staff of LHS is Mrs. Lois Kraft, the school nurse. Mrs. Kraft is in charge of the health records. She has taken the height and weight and has tested the vision of all the students. Hearing tests for students performed by her she felt was necessary. Any minor first aid situation is taken immediately to the school nurse.

LIFE COMPLETE The Leola High School Band, consisting of thirty-nine members, began its year under the direction of a new instructor, Mr. Don Wade. In the traditional style of LHS, Leola marched in the Gypsy Day Parade in Aberdeen and also in our own Homecoming Parade. Other events highlighting the year were the magazine drive and a very inspirational Christmas concert. A special event presented by the entire music department was a musical comedy entitled Check Your Worries. The delightfully entertaining comedy was well presented and well received o This year also brought to close the high school music careers of seven seniors who, like all the others before and after them, gave their best to LHS. 24 INDIVIDUAL TALENTS DISPLAYED Sonya Heupel Susan Turnwall Ruth Neuharth SIXTH ROW, from left to right: Nancy Greeno, Jerry Noble, Owen Maier, Charlotte Fischer.

This group participated in the vari- ous activities of the music department, and also sang for the PTA and the Snow Queen Talent Contest, where they took first place. Mr. Don Wade, music instructor, accompanied the group on the guitar. FROM LEFT to RIGHT: Mary Spitzer, Ruth Neuharth, David Rath, Jerry Sandmeier, Lynn Koerner, Sheilah Smolnisky, Glenda Rueb.

GRIDIRON GRIDDERS REBUILD FOR FUTURE Pirate gridders started practice with high hopes of winning the conference championship for the first time since 1961 e Most of the eleven returning lettermen were underclassmen. In the opening game of the season, the Blue and White held a high scoring Ellendale team to two touchdowns. The lone score for the Pirates was scored on an end run by Schaffner. The following week the varsity met a one point defeat at the hands of the Aberdeen Juniors. Schaffner again scored two touchdowns for the varsity, while the defense allowed only two scores. The Pirates started conference play the following week, as they defeated the Wildcats from Northvilie-Northwestern. Kranzler broke into the scoring column as he sWept around end for the third and winning tally. Doland played the role of the spoiler, as they wanted revenge for last year's loss. They slammed the door on the Pirate offense to ruin the annual homecoming event for the Buccaneers. Fate then stepped in as Guthmiller cut his hand and was lost for a couple of games, and Kamm broke his wrist and was sidelined for the remainder of the season. The Pirates having tough luck thus far hoped for a reverse of fortune. It almost came in the Eureka game. Opp took the opening kickoff eighty- yards for a touchdown. However, fate again stepped in as the Pirates lost to the Eureka team, and Ipswich dumped them the following week. The next game was the highlight of the year, as the Blue and White tied the conference leading Cresbard Comets on touchdowns by Kaaz, Kindelspire, and Guthmiller. In the season finale, the Leola eleven was soundly whipped by the Groton Tigers in spite of the fine play of the freshmen and sophomores, who will carry the burden in the future. 30 1966 Football Record W T Ellendale 7 14 Aberdeen Jrs. 12 13 Northvil le 20 8 Doland 0 27 Eureka 14 27 Ipswich 13 14 Cresbard 20 20 Groton 2 25 Con fere nee Games FROM LEFT to RIGHT: Tony Kamm, Jerry Heupel, Ron Kaaz, Robert Opp, Gerald Gehring, Paul Kindlespire Coach Laton Greeno.

This victory made it twelve wins against eight losses in the regular schedule. The team had youth and experience in its favor, as there were five returning lettermen with two seniors in the starting five. The Blue and White won their first five games begin- ning with a win over McLaughlin. They followed with wins over district foes: Hosmer, Faulkton, Roscoe, and a conference win over Northville. The Buccaneers then dropped a thrilling game to the highly regarded Hecla Rock- ets. Wanting revenge, the Pirates trounced the Aberdeen Juniors. The varsity traveled to Selby, demolishing their opponents as they racked up their seventh win. The Pirates then ran into a streak of tough luck as they lost seven of their next ten games. The Pirates defeated Ipswich for their only conference win during the streak. In turn, the Blue and White dropped three conference games to Doland, Cresbard, and Groton. The Pirates lost two thrilling contests in overtime events. One to their closest rivals, the Eureka Trojans, and the other to the once tenth ranked Frederick Vikings. In the season finale, the Bucs prepared themselves for tournament competition by beating arch rival Eureka. The Blue and White earned the right to represent District V in regional play by defeating Faulkton 47-39 in the semifinals and Roscoe in the finals 51-45. The Blue and White closed the season by taking fourth place in the regional tournament. Ron grabs the rebound!

Junior varsity basketeers enjoyed an excellent season as they racked up fifteen wins compared to only three losses. Although the B games aren't rated in the state, they provided many preliminary thrills for the crowd. The Bucs came from behind a number of times to win games when the odds were against them. If they continue at the present rate, the future basketball team should be a pleasant heartache for any coach.

BRIGHT HOPES PIRATE PETE’S TREASURE CHEST OF MEDALS INCREASED BY MEMBERS OF CINDER TEAM L. H.S. cross-country team was composed of all underclassmen—Lee Feickert, Wayne Fischer, Robert Schilling, James Reimer, Ron Schumack, Les Loebs, and Curtis Merkel. On September 24, they went to the Huron Invitation- al for class B runners. They finished 5th with Reimer leading Leola with a 5th place. Leola was 1st in the James- town Quarterback Club as class B and Reimer led Leola in both class A and B at sixth. The last meet of the year was the state track meet. As a team they scored 7th and Reimer scored 4th, Feickert 38th, Fischer 45th to lead Leola. With all underclassmen on the squad, the cross-country team has bright hopes for next year. The athletic season is concluded by the track team pictured above. The mainstays of last year's team will return for another year of competition. These individuals will seek to increase Pirate Pete's treasure chest. STANDING, from left to right: Lee Feickert, Wayne Fischer, Ron Schumack, James Reimer, Robert Schilling.

LIBRARY MEMBERS PERFORM MANY DUTIES For the purpose of broadening their scope and understanding of librarianship the officers and one delegate from the Library Club attended the SDSLA convention last fall. Several of the forty-two mem- bers acted as desk librarians during their free period. Scenes endueing the students to widen their range of reading are illustrated on the bulletin board each month by members of the Library Club. Duties per- formed by members in the library workroom in- clude mending old books, stamping books, and cov- ering new books with plastic covers. Filing maga- zines and shelf- reading are also performed. Title II ESEA has increased our number of excellent titles this year. OFFICERS LEAD THROUGHOUT YEAR Members busy in the library workroom. The following girls spent much of their time performing duties as librarians: Mavis Gehring, Kay Lapka, Gladys Haux, Sheilah Smolnisky, Linda Schneider, Pam Rau, Linda Schiltz, Charlotte Fischer, Susan Turnwall, Jane Smolnisky, Jennette Bendewald, Ruth Neuharth, Nancy Greeno, SEATED: Bonnie Kranzler.

Because the Pirates won the District V championship, there were extra duties for the members to perform such as making posters and dec- orating the high school. However, the main purpose of this organization is to support its team and cheer them on to victory. This year's officers are Carla Heyne, president; Jerry Sandmeier, vice-president; Mavis Gehring, secretary; and Arlene Kallas, treasurer.

LHS STUDENTS Cast bows at finale. Villain, you lie! LILY, THE FELON’S DAUGHTER” Lily, the Felon's Daughter, is a Gay Ninety Melo- drama. It is a tear jerker which tells the sad but silly story of Lily Fairweather (Mary Lee Geffre), as pure as the driven snow; of Compton (Jerry Noble), her weak but handsome sweetheart; and how Craven Sinclair (Glen Fischer), - that sneering, leering villain thwarted their plans for everlasting bliss. Compton, dearer than life to his indulgent mother (Linda Scheider), has become putty in the hands of the poisonous Craven. Tempted to forgery and embezzlement, he succumbs. Fleeing arrest on the night of his betrothal, he allows his father (Jerry Heupel) honest as the day is long to go to jail for his crimes. But that isn't all, for on that same fatal night, Lily's father, whom they all thought dead, returns from Penn State (Par- don me. State Penn) to claim his long-lost daughter. So Lily's cup of woe-and the audience's cup of cheer were filled to overflowing. Adding to the fun were Miss Ophelia (Glenda Rueb) a horse-faced suffragette, and her suitor. Lord Montmorency Montmorent (David Harris) who is so English it hurts the funny bone. 42 She's nicer than ever, really. Yes, I stole the $10,000. PRESENT AND HER KISSIN’ COUSIN” Lucy Lee Saunders from the deep South played by Margie Gisi, comes to visit her Northern cousin Molly Farrell, played by Galdys Haux. Jerry Serfoss acts the part of Harry Ames, Molly'sboy friend. Bruce Bartlett, who is Jerry Heupel, is Jodie Armstrong's special prop- erty, played by Linda Schneider. Jennifer Desmond is Pam Rau and has sort of a no nonsense quality about her. You will also meet Tom Jackson, portrayed by Paul Kindelspire, who keeps the play swinging in his shy and inexperienced ways. David Geffre will appear as Ran- dolph Fitzhugh. Randolph, a gallant southern gentleman, comes North to take Lucy Lee back home. Is he successful? Randolph, you're a real Southern gentleman!

The Camera Club, through its various activities such as taking pictures, devel- oping film, and printing negatives, en- lightened many students in the field of photography. Although the basics were learned last year, the members along with their advisor, Mr. Erdahl, learned many new things through reports and different discussions and experienced the actual picture developing and enlarging process.

During the 1966-67 school year, Mrs. Lillian Kindelspire revived the South Da- kota declamation program here in Leola. The participants were members of Mrs. Kindelspire's speech classes. The contestants, divided into four categories-poetry, humorous, dramatic, and oratory, had four speakers in each division. These sixteen winners from the class competition entered the local contest; and the four first place winners-Mary Spitzer, Arlene Vilhauer, Pam Rau, and Marjorie Gisi, were entitled to compete in the district division. Here Pam Rau and Victoria Ettles, who substi- tuted for Mary Spitzer, gained second ratings. 44 1967 PIRATES’ HOMECOMING NEVER TO BE FORGOTTEN Paul and Mavis Judy and Ron CORONATION OF QUEEN CARLA AND KING JERRY It was becoming dark when the members of Leo la High School assembled to officially begin their 1966-1967 Homecoming festivities. The past week had been a time of trial for the freshmen. They were looking forward to Friday when they would be initiated into the LHS student body. After the traditional bonfire and snake dance, the clan gath- ered in the gymnasium to view the crowning of this year's Homecoming royalty. Carla Heyne and Jerry Heupel, selected by the student body, reigned over the events. Fol- lowing the movie which was The Misadventures of Merlin Jones, the students retired to prepare for the busy schedule ahead. September 23 turned out to be a beautiful day for the Pirates Homecoming. Everyone assembled in the gymnasium to witness the sophomore sponsored Kangaroo Court and the judging of the best-dressed Pirates. Student Council president Jerry Heupel announced the Pirate Royalty winners, whom the judges selected because of their original costumes. The colorful parade, led by the LHS band, comprised of the royalty float and the tra- ditionally attired students. However, a dark cloud hovered over the high spirited Pi- rates and cast a shadow as the team fell to defeat at the hands of the Doland Wheelers prior to the dance. The cheery atmosphere was once again restored as the students danced to the music of the Gas lighters. This evening proved to be a night always remembered. 46 BEST DRESSED PIRATES CHOSEN The best-dressed Pirates sellected from left to right were: David Erdahl, Carla Merkel, Tony Kamm, Paula Henderson, Arlene Kal- las, Larry Kraft. A NIGHT REMEMBERED BV ALL Ghosts, goblins, and witches haunted the halls of LHS as the freshmen presented the annual Hal- loween party. Bobbing for apples and a trip through the ghost house highlighted the evening's events. Decorations of pumpkins and corn husks, depicting all hallow's eve, ornamented the gym. Students, attired in their various costumes, danced to stereo music. All of these elements combined to make October 28 a night to remember. STUDENTS DANCE UNDER RAINBOW One, two and then rock.. The snow started to fall as students from the LHS student body and their dates arrived at the gymnasium. On February 11 the sophomore sponsored Valentine's party was held. The gym, dec- orated to correspond with the theme Love under the Rainbow, contained a love chair with a background of colored streamers depicting a rainbow. A buffet, decorated to coincide with the oc- casion served by the sophomore hosts consisted of punch and cookies. Stereo music vibrated while enlightening the atmosphere providing dancing music for the evening. KING JERRY ND QUEEN CARLA REIGN OVER 1967 HOMECOMING FESTIVITIES MEMORIES ARE MADE OF THIS King Jerry and Queen Carla stand to reign over parade. I may not be handsome, but I am good looking. Content is happiness. Some people thing the world is full of frolic and so do we. We shall now have five minutes of meditation. Those teen-agers should be put off the road; they're raising my insurance rates. The witch's cage awaits the arrival of its new occupants. Hansel and Gretel search for the owner of this tasty house. HANSEL AND GRETEL” PRESENTED BY 1967 SENIORS The highlight for the Junior-Senior Prom, which was held on May 12, 1966, was the banquet for the seniors, the juniors, and the faculty. The menu composed of tasty dishes included turkey and all the trimmings. The junior class president, Kay Lapka, welcomed everyone, followed by a farewell by the senior class presi- dent, Dennis Durheim. Eunice Jakober and Kenny Hoffman were crowned 1966 Prom Royalty. The senior class will and prophecy were read by Ruth Neuharth and Janet Fink respectively. The auditorium decorated with gingerbread men, and a candy house, a forest, and the witch's cage and oven had the theme, Hansel and Gretel. The waiters and waitresses were dressed to portray characters from the story, and later they presented a short skit. The grand march began at 9:00 p.m., followed by the dance. The music was presented by Art Hollan and his orchestra. This night will be one that will always be remembered by all those present. Grade Principal PYRL GOODRICH Northern State Bachelor of Science Grades 7 and 8 GRADERS, TOO, WILL REMEMBER Grade school students came, saw, and will never forget also. The twenty-seven new members of the grade body, the kindergarten, launched a new and exciting career in learning. Performing in a play for the other classes was novel and challenging for some of the students. Each Saturday morning, recreation classes are held for all the students; and the fourth, fifth, and sixth grade boys can participate in basketball. A remedial reading class, under the direction of Mrs. Bernice Pade, was a new feature included in the curriculum of grade in- struction. Its purpose is to try to solve the pupil's reading problems. Solving these problems will greatly increase the student's interest in school and help him to obtain better grades. With the consolidation of nine country school districts, new ad- ditions to the school plant will be constructed in the summer. All of the students, city and rural, are anxiously waiting the day when they will be truly one body. Kindergarten MRS.
