These were the “Days of Our Lives” “Like sands through the hour glass, so are the days ol our lives.” The 1983-84 school year was a Renaissance year for LHS, a year of rebirth. Many extra-curricular activities which had disappeared from our calendar over the years reappeared in 1983-84. In the fall we crowned Leisha Fauth and Mark Maule as homecoming royalty and attended a public home- coming dance, sponsored by the student council, which was something which had not been held for several years. In the spring the juniors reinstated the prom dance, which had been absent for four years. New, or rather, renewed, organizations included the Pep Club and Drama Club. The latter presented a play, The Mir- acle Worker, which was also something that had been long absent from LHS. The seniors once again took a class trip to the state capital, Pierre, and while there spoke to South Dakota’s Secretary of State, Alice Kun- dert, who also spoke at our graduation ceremonies. Our typical school days were filled with concerns over homework and tests. When people said or did some- thing unreasonable, we told them to “get a job”; when they were made fools of we told them, “You got used”; and if something was boring we said, “What a yawner!” We listened to everything from Quiet Riot to Huey Lewis and the News, from Michael Jackson to Cyndi Lauper. Our favorite television shows were Dynasty and Three’s Company and, for some, The People’s Court. Nationally, we saw the beginning of another presiden- tial campaign; the downing of the Korean airliner, KAL 007; and the death of over 200 U.S. Marines in Leba- non. All of these events affected our attitudes and ideas about world politics and national policies. In this book, we have tried to document this school year from football to track, August to May, homecom- ing to prom, for these were the days of our lives. 1.

They Conference, prom and all the oth- explored the final aspects of high ers. In the spring they cried and re- school life. Their main challenges ceived their diplomas and walked conisted of research papers and out the doors of LHS and into the Macbeth in English, individualized changing world, ready to find their oral tests in government, case prob- tomorrows, lems in business law. They smiled Seniors 5 Craig Bieber Seniors look ahead, reflect back The Class of 1984 reflected on the past and made plans for the fu- ture as their graduation drew near. Twelve class members have made plans to enter college and six to attend vocational school after completing high school. Three sen- iors plan to enter the work force, and one will join the armed forces. Only two members of the class re- mained undecided about their fu- ture plans as graduation rolled around. The seniors reminisced about the good times they had had together. Some of their more memorable events included their class trip to Pierre, the senior banquet and the digging up of a time capsule which they had buried while in Mrs. Leona Kulm’s fourth grade class.

Many were involved in sports and music. Future Business Leaders of America and other extra- curricular functions also occupied a large part of their time. Classes and schoolwork kept them busy during the school day. A variety of academic courses were offered to the seniors this year. Seniors had the opportunity to en- roll in drama, advanced math, phy- sics, art, journalism, home ec, shop, computer programing and office procedures, in addition to the stan- dard English and social studies courses.

Seniors 9 Dallas Johnson Sheila Kallas Bruce Kappes Class of ’84 changes Many things were different for the seniors this year. They were seniors, and that meant that practically ev- erything they did in school they would never do again. The last game of the season became the last game, the last test in English this year became the last English test, and the last time they were uptown with friends grew closer and closer to being the last time for that also. The realization that high school was almost over made the seniors think about a lot of things. Some had regrets and would change things if they had high school to do over again. Some were concerned more with their future and wondered what they would do after gradu- ation. All, though, moved forward cautiously, trying to forget the rough times and remember the good times they had at LHS. 1983 Boys’ and Girls’ State representatives are: BACK: Sheila Kallas, Leola alternate; Trevor Guthmiller.

Graduates embark The things that the 1984 seniors will remember most about high school vary. Some will remember the classes, the teachers and the seemingly endless amounts of homework. Some will remember the people, those whom they couldn’t stand and those whom they consid- ered friends who were really “de- cent.” Some will recall special occa- sions — like the State Fair, home- coming, the State B’s, prom and graduation. Still others will think mostly about the way they felt, the emotions, good and bad, that they experienced throughout the year. Whatever it is they remember, one thing is sure. The seniors will never forget this part of their lives. They have grown from dependent children to independent adults in Leola School. They left to face their future, but they will always have their memories to pull them back. Seniors who spent the last twelve years together in Leola School are: LYING: Craig Bieber.

In the spring the class, under the direction of Mrs. Julie George, presented William Gibson’s The Miracle Worker. This drama is the story of Helen Keller and her teacher, Annie Sullivan. In it Sullivan (Deb Jasmer) fights to give her pupil (Tami Freitag) the gift of lan- guage.

Other endeavors included Homecoming Week activities — the Burning of the “L,” freshman initiation and a public homecoming dance, which the Student Council sponsored. The senior members of the group also at- tended a student council workshop in Mo- bridge. The purpose of this workshop was to exchange ideas with student council members from neighboring schools. Officers of the Student Council are: Vice President Leisha Fauth, President Mark Maule and Secretary-Treasurer Sheila Kallas. “One Life to Live” Athletics We all have only one life to live, young men made it into the Century and it seemed at times this year that Club. In boys’ and girls’ basketball those students who participated in the players fought long and hard sports risked that life. They suffered during the season. In track, students through “Lombardis.” carpets and worked to cut down their times, and ladders.

Pirates have tough year The blue and white-clad Pirates suffered from a lack of depth, ex- perience and numbers and strug- gled to a 1-8 record. The scrappy young Pirates, with only four seniors, played an ex- tremely tough schedule. The 18 players on the team were usually outsized by their opponents and had to rely on quickness rather than size. Injuries hampered the team be- cause of their lack of depth. The Bucs lost their first three games before exploding for their first and only victory. The team stunned Northwestern for a 28-7 win. The Pirates then stumbled, los- ing their next five games, including a 0-35 loss to Sully Buttes on Home- coming. Four Pirates made the Century Club, however. Joe Erdmann, Sid Feickert, Brian Shafer and John Zulk accumulated the necessary de- fensive points to earn the honor. The 1983 edition of the Pirate football team includes: BACK ROW: Jay Schaffer.

The team could never really seem to get on track as they played their way to a 5-11 season. Their longest winning streak was two games, which the team achieved twice. The girls went to the District 5 Tourney in Ipswich, riding one of those two-game winning streaks but were knocked out in the first round by Hosmer 40-45.

The young Bucs made up for a lack of size and quickness and a cold shooting touch by playing an aggressive man-to-man defense. According to Daly, Other teams stood on defense, but we went to the man, and with it the players could more easily adapt to game situations.” The team finished the regular sea- son with a 13-9 record, which, with an improvement in offense, should give promise of a successful season in 1984-85.
