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.
