Seniors Make Most of Their Last Good Times The highs and lows of school morale and day-to-day student life painted the lasting memories of the Class of � 73. Events that induced the many moods at LHS varied from wo rid-wide to local. Among these were: the cease fire in Viet Nam and shedding of POW bracelets; making of future plans including college, jobs and mar- riage; arrival at the magic age of eighteen; having an un- defeated football team, leading an active social life to break the boredom of the long weeks; and lectures! Music, literature, and shows of the day; tests and term papers; and the gaining of certain liberties such as chewing bubble gum also affected student life and helped shape memories. The consoling fact that only one-seventh of their lives were lived on Mondays kept the seniors smiling through the uppers and downers of the weeks, in anticipation of the 3:45 bell on Fridays!

School highlights were cherished especially by the graduat- ing because of a bond of last year togetherness and friend- ship. The first liveliness of 1973 centered around Homecoming events. Senior enthusiasm prevailed throughout the festi- vities and was rewarded with the big game victory. The traditional trip to Pierre on ’’Government Day” im- proved the class's comprehension of politics. Special attention given to the visitors by the State legislators was appreciated. The Junior-Senior Prom was one of the most anticipated, enjoyed, and cherished social happenings of 1973. The Seniors were honored by the fact that the evening was dedicated to them and took full advantage of the night. After school and weekend activities were a part of Senior life. Each of these noncurricular events, in its own way, played a major role in forming the memories of the Class of '73. 7 Honors Reflect Senior Effort Numerous honors were given to outstanding f73'ers. Between 50% and 55% of the senior class was al- ways recognized on the honor roll. Four were named Outstanding Teenagers of America. Six seniors had their biographies printed in Who's Who. A DAR representative was chosen, and many se- niors were recognized with additional honors on Awards Night. Participation and hard work in extracurricular activities also reaped their rewards. Band letters and chorus awards were precious to seniors. Out- standing senior athletes were given special recog- nition. Stu Neuharth was honored by being chosen as a member of the All-State Football Team. These awards reflect only a small portion of what was actually gained at school.

Live For Today . . Mr. Schumacher's room was the typical setting for the senior class meetings. It was here that they chose their flower, the peace rose. This was a symbol of their hope for peace. They also chose pink and purple for their colors. After much deliberation on a class motto, the seniors chose Learn from yesterday, Live for today, and Hope for tomorrow. Right: The seniors chose the peace rose for their class flower and this style of announcement. Far right: The seniors pose for one last picture as the Class of 73 . Lee Rau Jerome Schaffner Roger Sc Wiling 11 It’s the people, places, things . . . which educate us. For the seniors, their last year of high school went very fast. Other than the guidance counselor; various school representatives and recruiters for the Armed Forces discussed many different fields and occupations that were open to the seniors. With twelve years of preparation they hoped to be ready for graduation and the giant step of independence. Spe- cial messages were given to the seniors at Baccalaureate and Commence- ment. After Commencement the seniors celebrated with a dance. They also planned a senior party-trip at the Gulches for the weekend after Graduation. These are memories which make every tomorrow a vision of hope. Arnie Schock Harley Shafer Susan Sieh Upper left: Graduation. We've finally made it! Upper right: Talkin it over...

In August they sponsored a Freeway dance at Long Lake. Immediately after school got underway, the ener- getic juniors sold Pirate Booster pins, which not only increased the junior class funds, but helped raise the spirit at LHS. In October the juniors worked diligently to contri- bute the second place float, Pirate Graveyard, to the Homecoming Parade. They also presented the skit, To Paint a Portrait. Early in November the juniors started selling home- made candy at the end of the school day on Fridays. Karen Rueb, Cindy Haux, Deb Mack, Dale Nesby, Jackie Miller contributed their time and effort especially to make this project a success. With the start of basketball season on December 1, the juniors operated the concession stand. A new popcorn machine, donated by the PTA, created a big boost for the sales. On January 24, the class of 74 picked out their class rings. The ring chosen by most had a teardrop shaped stone with an L on top. The year of grad- uation and initials were on opposite sides of the stone. Lower left: Pouring pop at the con- cession stand is Karen Rueb and Terry Zetterlund.

The Freshmen were lead by their president, Lori Logan; their vice-president, LaDonna Kallas; and their secretary-treasurer, Peggy Hoffman. The mighty Sophomores chose the Freshmen's initiation costume, which in- cluded dresses for the boys and braids and bur- lap sacks for the girls. Upon their arrival at LHS, the Sophomores took the liberty of swear- ing in the Freshmen Class. As members of LHS, the Freshmen were represented in the Student Council by Kathy Neuharth and Wade Weiszhaar. The Freshmen had several projects through- out the year. They built their Homecoming float using a Snoopy and Woodstock theme, Somehow Winning Just Doesn't Seem Fair. They also hosted the annual Halloween Party. They gave Best Costume prizes which went to Greg Haux (1st), Josie Meier (2nd), and Susie Sieh (3rd). As a money-making project, the Freshmen sold candy. 21 Debbie Schmidt Peggy Shafer Carolyn Sieh Cynthia Scott Mickey Skott Pam Smalley Above: Pam Smalley, Kathy Neu- harth, Lori Logan, Susie Yost, and Lynn Nesby discuss the ever-chang- ing situation of the Pirates1 basket- ball game.

Eighth Graders Prepare for Future at LHS Eighth graders participated actively in scholastic and social activities during their last year in grade school. During the year, they sponsored an eighth grade party with the seventh graders invited as their guests. The quality of Junior High athletics was apparent by the excellent athletic record of the eighth grade football team (four wins and one loss) and their basketball team (eleven wins and one loss). Members of the eighth grade were also active in Library Club and FHA. Graduation, a milestone in their scholastic career, was the highlight of the year.

Seventh 6raders Adjust to Their New Schedule Adjusting to their new surroundings and classes the seventh grade paved their way into the Pirate Clan. Sharing many of the upperclassmen privileges, the students learned to schedule and utilize their time. They enjoyed many junior high parties, and high school events such as pep rallies and sock hops sponsored by the FHA and cheerleaders. Many of the members of the class were active in Library Club and junior high athletics. 7th Grade: First row: (left to right) Dawn Hoffman, Charles Valentine, MartinGeffre, Johnny Fischer, Rick Haux, Wendell Kallas, Janell Ketterling, Kathy Schumacher, Virginia Rohr- bach, Melody Weisser, Rhonda Laton, Donna Potratz, Angie Hoffman.

Academics Academics is one of the most important aspects of our educational devel- opment because we use and expand it. Throughout our lives we draw upon our academic knowledge and memories to apply them to our daily lives for practical use. Academic Curriculum Expanded During the past year, declam and eighth grade home economics were added to the curriculum. Declam offered to the students a way to broaden their scope on the many meanings and feelings that words convey. Eighth grade home economics, as well as the other home economics courses, opens the field of homemaking to the girls at LHS. To give us a better understanding of the world of yesterday and today, world history, American history, government, and modern problems were offered. In preparation for the world of business, the the students were offered bookkeeping, busi- ness math, and secretarial courses, includ- ing shorthand, typing, and office practice. Several courses in the fields of mathematics and science were offered also. The curriculum in the Industrial Arts De- partment was based mainly on familiarizing the students with the world of industry. Pre- senting to the student a small spectrum of the job opportunity which is available to them in industry was the goal. Students were in- volved in drafting, woodworking, welding, as well as some individual research. A class in Arts and Crafts was also included. 26 Upper left: Mr. Waddell, chemistry teacher, explains the proper use of the fil- ing system in the lab to Greg Haux.

The traditional English classes were also offered, covering the areas of grammar, speech, composition, and literature. Driver's Ed was again offered to the freshmen. German II was offered to those students who had previously taken German I. General Math, Algebra I, geometry, Algebra II, and advanced math were offered in the mathematics department. Physical science, biology, physics, and chemistry were offered in the science department. 29 PTA Celebrates 75th Anniversary Upper right: PTA work is accomplished by several committees.

The main objective of the PTA is to improve relations between the school and home so that the child will receive the best education. The PTA has one major fund raising project each year—the all school carnival. The funds are spent on projects that will help students and teachers in as many areas as possible. MThe Fortunate Fours program, an audio and visual screening for the 4 year olds, has been a PTA sponsored project the past 2 years. Various health clinics are also held. The Boy and Girl Scout troops is a newly sponsored project. Mrs. Jerry Wright is the coordinator. Items purchased this year by the PTA are: careers file for the guidance department, small tools for the shop, and a popcorn machine to be used at the ball games. Nationally, the PTA celebrated its 75th anniversary in 1972 and for the occasion a com- memorative stamp was issued by the Postal De- partment. Co-Curricular It is not only classes which make a school, but the extra activities. The memories of these learning experiences enable us to become successful, coopera- tive members of society. Ellendale Pirates Post Undefeated Season We They 22 8 As the 72 season convened, not many thought the Pirates contenders for the tough Northern Conference title, but under the direction of Coach Gauer and Coach Schumacher, the Pirates claimed the conference crown and went undefeated for the season. Ellendale was first on the Pirates1 list, and the tough Pirate squad came home with a 22-8 victory. Next, a disheartening tie with Britton, which ended 8-8. While the Big Blue machine sputtered offensively, their stingy defense yielded only one Britton score. Opening conference play at North- ville, the Pirates rambled to a 18-0 halftime lead, and withheld a strong second half attack by the Wildcats to win 18-14. Eureka was the next victim of the Pirate onslaught, and the Big Blue rolled to a 20-7 victory. Coming out of a tough first half with an 8-0 lead, the fired-up Pirate offense scored twice to put the game out of reach for the Trojans. In their first home game, the Pirates dumped the Ipswich Tigers 29-6, and smashed the Aberdeen Juniors 30-0 the following week. Out to avenge the 1971 defeat at Sully Buttes, and claim the conference title, the fired-up Pirates demolished the Sully Buttes Chargers 32-6. Both the offense and defense shined as the Pirates controlled the game from start to finish. Entering the Faulkton game as the underdog, the Big Blue put it all to- gether, and came home with a big 18-10 win. Leading 12-10 at the half, the Pirates scored once more, and the tough Pirate defense came up with the big plays to hold on for the victory.

Dropping the season's opener to Mc- Laughlin, the Pirates split their next two games, rambling by Roscoe, and losing to Eureka 47- 46. Trouncing Northville, the Buc's dropped four straight away games before returning to their home floor to score an easy victory over Hecla. Stomping Ipswich, the Pirates dropped their next three games to top ranked Britton, Eureka, and Cresbard. With a 66-65 victory over Selby, the Pirates suffered losses to Ashley and Onida, but the improving Buc squad next snatched three consecutive victories over Frederick, the Aberdeen Juniors, and Herried. Dropping their final game to Langford, the Pirates ended season play with a 8-12 record, and a third place finish in conference play. Entering District V play, the fired-up Pirates floated to an easy 76-63 victory over Hosmer, and moved into the finals by downing Ipswich 55-50. Meeting arch rivals the Eureka Tro- jans in the championship game, the Pirate's second half comeback fell short, and were de- feated 60-52 for a second place finish.

Grapplers Complete Most Successful Season With experienced wrestlers at each weight class, Coach Gauer s matmen completed a successful season, posting a 8-5 season record, and placing third in the Conference tournament. Starting slow, the Pirates dropped their first three matches, but followed these with their first win over Central s BM squad. Losing a close match to Selby, the improving Pirate squad next snatched two easy victories from Edgley and Lamour. Taking first place honors at the Hoven Invitational, Gauer s grapplers stretched their winning streak to four by defeating Ipswich and Eureka. With four medal winners, and a third place finish at the Conference tournament, the Pirate wrestlers wrapped up the regular season by being defeated by Britton, after defeating Ashley and Hoven. 38 We They Sully .Buttes 9 48 Groton 19 39 Northwestern 14 45 Aberdeen B 41 16 Selby 24 34 Edgeley 30 19 LaMoure 26 23 Hoven Invitational First place Ipswich 40 15 Eureka 34 15 Conference Tourney Third place Aberdeen MB 43 3 Ashley 41 3 Hoven 32 . 27 Britton 19 40 Opposite page; Lower right: Coach Gauer watches impatiently as an unidentified Pirate grappler works his way out of a predicament.

Some of the girls were just involved in an excercise-fitness routine, while others competed in meets in various towns. The conference meet held in Eureka saw Leola take second place honors, Northwest- ern was the victor and holder of the trophy. Redfield was the sight of the regional track meet. To be eligible to letter in track one must place at a track meet higher than the number of teams attending.

Cindermen Set Individual Records The 1973 track season was a very productive one for the Leola Pirates. However, the achievements were individual rather than team achieve- ments. Terry Zetterlund performed steadily throughout the season. At the Hoven Invitational Meet, Terry broke the school shot put record when he threw it fifty-one feet, four inches. The previous record was forty-nine feet, ten and one-half inches. Mike Maule also broke the ninth grade records in shot put and discus, besides tying the high jump record.

Coach Gauer's thinclads completed a successful season. Competing in fourteen track meets, including the Corn Palace Relays and the Aberdeen Relays, Pirate cindermen finished strong in individual running and field events.

The first act was entitled Daily Life. You were carried into Dr. and Mrs. Gibbs home (Greg Haux and Susie Sieh). Their children were George (Arnie Schock) and Rebecca (Lynn Nesby). Then carried into Mr. and Mrs. Webbs home (Roy Geffre and Nancy Fischer), and their family was Wally and Emily (John Swanson and Karen Rueb). The second act was Love and Mar- riage. George and Emily fell in love and got married. It contained all the elements of sorrow and happiness that make for solemnity and impressiveness. The third act was Old Age and Death. The Stage Manager (Dwight Neuharth) narrated parts of the play. Mrs. Lewis directed the play. Upper left: The living dead and the mourners are brought together at Emily's graveside. Upper right: This scene portrays the mourn- ers at the grave of Emily. Lower left: The climax of happiness in the play was the mar- riage of George Gibbs (Arnie Schock) to Emi- ly Webb (Karen Rueb). Lower left: Emily and George converse about their algebra— and the moon! ? ! 51 Labours of Love A combined effort of the music and drama departments, under the direction of Mr. Guffey and Mrs. Lewis, staged the amusing melodrama, The Labours of Love. The Victorian gestures and musical numbers made the typical novel with heroes, villians, and not-so-inno- cent bystanders come to life on April 27, 1973, in the school gym. In the first act, the brilliant plan of the villians to acquire Mrs. Gotrocks dia- monds was foiled by her two precious children. In spite of the chaos, two love affairs blossomed between the gardener and maid, and Dick Dashing and the governess. The Blue Swan , Madame Midnight’s saloon, provided the setting for the second act. The revealing of true iden- tities showed that life on the wicked stage was an influence on almost every- one. Upper right: Patti Kulm, as Hattie Hateful, entertains the Gotrocks family with a song.

Brisk October weather prevailed, but failed to dampen Pirate Spirit. A performance by the LHS Stage Band set the corona- tion program in action. The new king and queen, Josie Meier and Jerome Schaffner, were crowned by the junior student council representatives, JoAnn Meier and Mike Rath. The royalty was then entertained with skits presented in their honor. Friday started out traditionally with freshman initia- tion, followed by selection of best-dressed Pirates. The parade of Pirates and floats was led by the Color Guard and the LHS Marching Band. A short, spirited pep rally was led by the cheerleaders on Main Street. The Homecoming Game between the Leola Pirates and Sully Buttes Chargers was expected to be a close con- test of ability.

Debbie Morseth showed her slides of Germany to the class. They were very interested in her with her Ger- man family. They also enjoyed seeing slides of North Carolina and Washington, D.C. presented by Lois Bren- neise, a member of the class. For Christmas they depicted the way the people of Poland celebrate the holiday. 6th Graders See Slides Grade Six; First row: (left to right) Jerome Geffre, Duane Jakober, Clark Neuharth, Kurt Skott, Keith Kracke, Mike Beilke, Jerry Logan, Charlene Yost, Georgiann Lapka.

Fourth Graders Serve Senior Citizens The fourth grade had a very active study of nu- trition. They made and baked two loaves of bread as a follow-up study to yeast and microor- ganixms. They also froze two gallons of ice cream for their Christmas party. They didn’t keep all of their goodies to them- selves, however. They filled two gift boxes of food for Senior Citizens at Thanksgiving time. As an added science study they constructed and erupted a volcano as a follow-up to their study of rocks and earth. 77 Third and Fourth Graders Have Busy Year During their study of communities the third graders made a large display of a city using boxes and toys. In history the fourth graders played a game called Who, What, Where, and When, about historical people, places, and events. For Thanksgiving each member of the class made a pil- grim boy and girl to take home. As a special treat for their parents at Christmas, they made profile silhouettes of themselves.

Right: One of the more serious aspects of a Kindergartener's life is shown here. Adjusting to school life was the goal , of the kindergarteners. They built their imaginations by painting, coloring, drawing, and telling stories. A toy was brought by each student, so that they would learn sharing and manners. Visiting the fire station and post office were big events in the new life of the kindergarteners. They learned the alphabet, colors, and nursery rhymes. The American Indian, birds, animals, Eskimos, and transportation were researched by the children.
