He belongs to the Emanuel Lutheran Church and is an elder and a past choir member and director. He has many hobbies. MHS Students wish Merril many years of pleasant retirement. IN MEMORIAM Cheri Armitage was born August 24, 1962, in Rice County, Minnesota, and became the chosen daughter of Lucy and Clayton Armitage. She lived there until, at age four, her parents moved to Milbank in 1966. She attended Koch School, Milbank Junior High and was a sophomore at Milbank High School. A talented young lady with a host of friends, Cheri was very active in marching, concert, and jazz band. She was also active in the high school dra- matics and had belonged to Future Homemakers while in eighth and ninth grades. Outside of school Cheri was very active in 4-H. She was the Parkview United Methodist church secretary. She was a member of the church youth group, UMYF, and taught Vocation Bible School. Cheri Armitage died at the local hospital Friday, March 10, 1978. In our own way, each of us will remember Cheri in our hearts. Dedication and Memoriam Page 2 We Were Raised on Country Sunshine ... And those are the ones on which seed was sown on good ground; and they ... bear fruit, some thirty, some sixty, and some a hundredfold. Nestled between the verdant Couteau Hills and Big Stone Lake lies a fertile valley that nurtures a wealth of produce: com, wheat, oats, alfalfa, milk, cheese, pork, beef, granite. The eyes of the inhabitants on a warm summer day rest peacefully on a herd of grazing cattle. A delighted little calf frolics beside his mother. The open sky arches a brilliant blue overhead with cream puff clouds to taunt the imagination. The speckled pleasure of a shade tree overhead invites one to stop and dwell on his own thoughts. On winter evenings, the expanse of pure white is broken by stark trees and fenceposts. Friendly yard- lights beside houses and barn sparkle a welcome to pass- ers-by. In the myriad simple pleasures of country sunshine, the students of MHS have their roots. About half of the stu- dents of MHS live on farms and ride the bus down the country roads to and from school each day. Many other families find their roots in service to the farming commu- nity. No child in downtown Milbank is too far from his rural roots but that he can find a stream to fish in or a rabbit to chase in the country sunshine. To these students with roots in the simple pleasures, the parents, the administrators, and faculty have sown the seeds of knowledge and enlightenment. The seeds have been watered with raindrops of courage, challenged by the fresh air of hope, and nourished by the warm pressence of country sunshine. This year, 1978, will see the harvest of a major sowing in Milbank. The new high school building will be ready for occupancy. On the eastern edge of our small city, its windows look out to the wide sky and the fence rows and fields of neighboring farms. The new facilities herald an expanded course of study. The law of the harvest demands that what one sows one shall also reap. The seeds of education have been sown and nurtured at MHS. The sunshine of harvest can- not be far away. And so with you, the students of MHS, we look to the harvest. As freshmen sprout upward, sophomores blos- som and bloom, and juniors ripen before harvest, we turn to the seniors for our harvest brought home in the secure warmth of country sunshine.

COUNTRY FOLK WE WERE RAISED ON COUNTRY SUNSHINE Seniors Harvest Home We are the class of seventy-eight. Our high school days began in 1975 as freshmen. Can you remember getting lost on the first day or dropping your books or mistaking se- nior boys for teachers? We found being freshmen was a tough job. We were required to take math, English 1 and introduction to physical science. Can anyone remember throwing rubber stoppers around the science room? How destructive our class was, but how smart we were not to get caught. There were highlights, however, like getting a part in the play, the home economics style show, or being on the honor roll. Our homecoming float, Bury the Cav- aliers on Boot Hill, got second place and boosted our ego to try harder next year. The next year we were bicentennial sophomores. We strived to be number one. Our homecoming float, Throw 'Em Overboard received honorable mention. We felt we got ripped off, but accepted the honor and moved on. Drivers Education behind us, we found our newest hobby became cruisin' and hangin' out at the Dairy Queen. Nicknames had sprung up from all over, and it was not uncommon to hear someone called johnny, Tommy, Marshal, jabber jaws, Chewy, Space, Spunky, Dint, Nudey, Fonz, and Kung. Nineteen hundred and seventy-seven found us to be juniors. We grabbed first place on our Homecoming float, Whip Up a Three-Ring Victory. We got our class rings and were satisfied and we felt we still had a long stay at MHS. We got to attend Career Days and paid little attention to our future. Our girls gave all they had to the Powderpuff football game which came out with a 0-0 tie. In May we planned a successful prom, This One's For You, in honor of the 1977 graduates. Finally, the class of seventy-eight became a reality. We finally made it to the top. ACT tests were taken and much mail received from various colleges and vocational schools. Homecoming was a big event. We came out getting first on our float, Bootleg the Braves. This was the first homecoming that was almost rained out. As the year went by, seniors mixed business and pleasure, and succeeded most of the time. We ordered our announce- ments and knew that all good things had to come to an end. The senior banquet was held to honor us. Then, on May 24, 1978, graduation was held in the Milbank Armory. When books are back, school means many different things to every individual. For some, school was an edu- cational experience in classrooms, lyceums, concerts, and games. To some, school was Homecoming, dances, and debating. To others, school was setting records, running concessions, wrestling, attending class meetings and run- ning for mayor. School was breaking or trying to obey rules. To some students, school was the place to take tests, serve detention, pay fines, and get into trouble. It was going to prom and trying not to flunk out. Getting report cards back on time, cadet teaching, working in the office, and cheering at pep rallies were all parts of school life. Having one's first date was usually connected with school. Term papers, make-up slips, student council, and knocking hot lunch were things all high school students shared. Key Club, NHS, band and chorus involved some of the student body. But for most school was parties and friends. Well, whatever school means to you, this is it. The class of seventy-eight fades into the halls of memory. They were years of joy, sorrow, laughter, and tears. They were years of jammed lockers, overdue make-up slips, impossible semester tests, endless meetings for this and that, clubs for every interest, and most of all, the years of friendship come to an end. Many of us will be miles away, doing our own thing, but nothing will come be- tween the special bond we as classmates share. When you hear someone say the class of seventy- eight, remember to think of the song, Friends, I will re- member you, think of you, pray for you, and when an- other day is through I'll still be friends with you. If your friends are there, then everything's alright. We are the class of 78. There will always be a sense of pride when announcing, WE ARE THE CLASS OF 78! Not pictured: Susan Heine.

The 1977 Milbank Homecoming coronation took place on Thursday, September 22 in the high school gymnasium. The MHS band began the night festivi- ties with the processional as characters from the 20's and the 1977 Royal Court marched into the au- ditorium. The cheerieaders did a skit and the cham- ber choir sang Tea for Two. Melodee Bock and Bob Dohrer were crowned King and Queen for 1977 MHS Homecoming by the 1976 Queen and King, |an Buhler and Tim Homan. The night ended with a pep rally and refreshments. For the first time in the history of the school, the Homecoming football game had to be delayed a day because of stormy weather; however a 14 to 6 victory over unbeaten Britton dispelled the clouds. The parade was rescheduled three times before it finally took place late Saturday afternoon. The student council sponsored the traditional Homecoming dance Saturday evening, September 24. The band, Doo Dah, played their own selections as well as many current top hits requested by the students. With an excellent turn-out the successful dance ended the 1977 Homecoming activities.

Soon Forsees Future High School. The administration this year was headed by the chair- man of the board. Dr. N.C. Madsen. He was backed by James W. Adler, A. Mark Bucholz, Roy R. Jensen, and Pastor Harold Verhulst. Acting as superintendent for the year was George L. Smith. In addition to his regular duties he has been deeply involved in the construction of our new high school. Supervising all of us at the high school level was David Bergan. Mr Bergan provided his help in many areas, kept the teaching staff alert to the demands of the students, kept the students aware of why they were at school, provided ideas for putting up the new school, advised student council and National Honor Society, etc. This year there was a new figure on the administrative scene; his name was Marlin Smart. He had been serving Milbank on the mathematics staff one year previously. He took the place of Eugene A. Vostad. He then served as assistant principal and taught some math courses. His duties as assistant principal in- cluded attendance officer and truancy officer. Taking care of the junior high was principal Oscar Dickhaut. He managed all of the problems at the junior high. Mr. Dickhaut also served as the curriculum director for the school system. Taking care of Koch School were princi- pal Reuben Walkes and vice principal Fred Aderhold. Mr. Walkes' duties included being Title I director. Mr. Aderhold served by keeping the learning experience go- ing at Koch School. The business manager for our school was Curtis A. Hallberg. His responsibility in- cluded all financial aspects of our school such as pay- roll, bills, etc. The new high school was a major project of the ad- ministration. The new facility will have room for 575 stu- dents, but areas like the library can hold more and the classrooms may be increased at a later date. It will house all of the administrative offices for high school and general administration. The new theater will be able to seat 576 people. The new school will also have ex- cellent facilities for the music department. It will have a large room for band, a large room for chorus and sev- eral practice rooms.

Shining gold and platinum class rings create the brilliance, as do the dazzling smiles of the class of '79. All this sunshine helps the juniors to grow toward their goal, the harvest of the senior year. Brightening the spring of '78 was the Ju- nior-Senior Prom. Swirling new dresses and rented tuxedos showered the dance floor with heavenly rays of color. Even through all this brilliance there were some dark times. Mr. Beck's English and Mr. Modin's history were the reminiscences of all the juniors. Sunlight prevailed as the class of '79 was active in Student Council, debate, drama, sports, band, detention, FFA, FHA, paper staff, DECA, FBLA, and many other clubs. The junior class grasped third place during the Homecoming activities. The juniors powder puff football team rushed the seniors for 6-0 victory. Other than school activities, their favorite pastimes are cruising and just plain enjoying themselves. A bright forecast is predicted for the class of '79!

Now picture a sophomore at MHS, lasting through ten years of school, being chiseled by the elements, yet being a better person because of it. It has been said that the class of '80 is ''really kind of adult. On the other hand, judging by what seems to be the favorite pastime of sophomore boys during school hours (drawing suggestive pictures on notebooks, windows, desks, etc ...) one might begin to wonder if sophomores ac- tually are fence posts. The word sophomore comes from the Creek words 'sophos,' meaning 'wise' and 'moros,' meaning 'foolish.' In some of the class' wiser moments, they received the honor of their class float grasping second place in the Homecoming parade. The sophomore vol- leyball team. The Cannons, hit on a first place victory. Sophomores also stood their way through the dance marathon and served as the lunch committee for the Junior-Senior Prom. Many sophomores also let their intellect, muscle, talent and leadership shine by participating in many school clubs. The class of '80 can have the satisfaction that they are now considered upper-classmen.

One of the favorite pastimes of the class of '81 is raising cain, i.e. tying knots in the window shade, put- ting tacks on chairs, daydreaming and talking in class, running down the halls, writing notes, mak- ing funny noises, throwing spit wads, and chew- ing gum. Outside of school activities, the class of '81 enjoys cruising, listening to music, hunting, talking on the phone, participating in sports, and having a good time with friends. The things the freshmen liked best this year were Homecoming, pep rallies, school dances, lyceums, substitute teachers, vacation, upper-classmen, schedules. sports, easier homework, club meetings, and how fast the school year went. Changes tne class of '81 would like to make are abolishing the dress code, homework, and semester tests. They want longer vacations and lunch periods, shorter school aays and detention hours, and a girls' wrestling squad. Basically, the class of '81 likes high school better than junior high, mainly be- cause of being treated more like adults and being allowed more freedom. But in junior high they could act like kids and not feel dumb. High school changes that.

Tnese are just a fraction of the numerous essentials this year's basic skills class learned. Students learned how to tell time, how to write out checks, how to count money and to make change, and how to make measurements. They also learned basic writing and communication skills. Per- sonal cleanliness, diet and nutrition, and first aid were taught in the area of health. Students were also taught such leisure-time activities as macrame. Basic skills students constructed many beautiful Christmas tree ornaments which were sent to be used on the White House Christmas tree. Letters of thanks and acknowledgement were re- ceived from the First Lady. The highlight of the year for the basic skills class were the Special Olympics held each spring. Stu- dents competed for medals in swimming, bowling, ball throwing, and track and field events. The class also has in it three stu- dents whose five different drawings won awards on the state level of the national calendar and card contest. This year's basic skills class has a lot to be proua of.

Eighth Graders Move Upward The only step the eighth graders took was from the downstairs lockers to the upstairs lockers. They also became the oldest in junior high and felt more important than the seventh graders. This year the eighth graders were offered more extra courses. The required courses were English, science, social studies, math and physical education. The electives they could choose from were home economics, typing, art com- munications, chorus and band. Reading and spelling were offered to students who needed more practice in these areas. Many of the eighth grade students got a chance to be li- brarian and checked out books to students. The eighth graders are also glad that they won't have to walk to tne high school for gym and hot lunch next year.

They had to get ac- quainted with lockers, which were too small for two people to share and were sometimes impos- sible to open. They were only allowed to their lockers four times a day and could not go to them between classes. They had more responsibilities like make-up slips, getting passes and getting to classes on time in the two minutes they were al- lowed. They liked the idea of moving to different classes and having different teachers. They had more classes that they could take. The required courses were English, life science, social studies, math, and physical education. In physical educa- tion they often got subjected to Winter Killers ' The electives they could choose from were art, band, and chorus.

Slip Slidin' to Victory This fall sixty young men turned out to show and im- prove their football talents. The season started in mid- August with two-a-day lasting nine days. The players went into the season with much enthusiasm and opened with a win against Madison, MN. The rain took its toll during the middle of the season, possible costing the Bulldogs a couple of victories. After the rains stopped, the Bulldogs jelled and achieved three straight victories to close out the season on the plus side. During this stretch, they out-scored their opponents 118-15. This was the first winning football team since 1973. A new school record was established in team interceptions. The Bull- dogs picked off 17 of their opponents' passes. Mark Bucholz tied the individual season reception record with 27 and tied the touchdown reception with 6. With the juniors receiving much experience, a winning tradition has hopefully been started once again at Milbank High. |eff Ofsledal, Bob Dohrer: A determined Jeff Ofsledal eyes the goal line.

Nineteen no way seniors and twenty-six am- bitious juniors turned out for practice. Practices were a new experience for most. Stiff-legged players emitting moans and groans were common. Heads were spinning to remember the plays. Another common characteristic was that friends became enemies for the night. Finally the big night came. As the game progressed, the juniors sent out their defense instead of their offense. Yards were made and lost. But still the juniors came out on top with a 6-0 victory. lunior Coaches: Chris Peterson, Terry Poppen, David DeFea, Jeff Senior Coaches: Jim Trevett. Wayne Nowick, Jim Dejong. Ofstedal, Dan Larson.

This included an 11-3 second place finish in the NEC and a fourth place finish in the sectionals. The season began with high hopes as the cagers ran off six straight wins. Great expectations and a number four State rating accompanied the six straight wins. The cagers then hit troubled waters and dropped three of their next four games. Many hopes were rebuilt with a four game winning streak prior to the Section 1 Tournament. The dreams and hopes of the team were ended March 7 by the Watertown Arrows.

They defeated all teams in the conference to receive the Northeast Conference Championship. Kim Benning, assistant coach, stated, At the beginning of this season, we set goals of our squad that I'm sure some thought were unrealistic. We lived up to nearly all of them, in- cluding winning the Section IA Tour- nament for the first time in our school's history. Other goals set and reached included winning the con- ference dual crown, beating Brookings for the first time ever, taking more than six wrestlers to the State A Tour- nament as we did last year, and placing first and second in all our tournaments. One goal we did not achieve was winning the State A wrestling tournament at Huron. We came in third behind Rapid City Central and Mitchell. Coach D. Winter, J. Grovenburg, Captain J. Trevett, D.

The topic this year was Re- solved: That the federal government should guarantee comprehensive medical care for all citizens of the United States. The debaters started out a little shaky. How- ever, they ended up quite well since they qual- ified for the state debate tournament, and even that caused an unusual condition. Both of the debate teams tied in their qualifications to go to state. Only one team could attend state, so the problem was resolved through a flip of the coin. Nancy Fish and Julie Davis won the toss. The debaters gathered three trophies this year. The first one was a first place at the Aberdeen Ringneck tournament; the second one was a second place trophy for the conference tourna- ment; the third trophy was for qualifying for the state debate tournament.

Foreign Girls Take Root at MHS Carmen Crieb: Are all American boys like this? To the students of MHS: To go to America was a big de- cision in my life and perhaps the greatest I will ever make. In the be- ginning I was a little bit frightened because everything was new, but now I am frightened to think of the moment I have to leave. This is a new life, and I have come to love it, especially the people. Everybody is so friendly and helpful. I never saw a bad face; everybody was smiling, and that made me feel so good. I want to thank you all so much because you are the people that made this year a wonderful year, and I will never forget you. I had so much fun, and activities filled out my time so well that this almost passed too fast. It seems like the good things in life are always gone too fast and once the time is over, we wish it to go on forever. I also learned to love the U.S.A. because when you live for such a long time in the country, know the nice people, and experience the differ- ent things you just have to love the country as you love your own. I really appreciate all your patience by answering all my questions and things I didn't know about. There are no more words to say than 'Thank you'. Carmen Grieb Carmen Grieb: I dream of that man in the brown corduroy suit. Carmen Grieb and Anne Sinel discussing life in America. AFS Club The desire to travel brings me to Milbank. Paris-New York-Mil- bank, ten hours of plane, thirty-six hours of bus, and a lot of weari- ness, this is enough to convey you in a dream where you don't really know what happens to you. But the parents are here, a new mom and dad, three new sisters and a brother, and you really need them. Around the farm are miles and miles of flat land that very soon will be covered with snow and a climate that you even could never imagine. Then, the other big shock will be school. The first time, as center of interest, you are just assaulted by questions, and the worst is that you understand auite nothing of what they try to tell. The famous diction- ary follows you everywhere; you appreciate people speaking slowly, teachers writing on the board, and patient friends. Very soon, I found friends. I learned with them what was cruizing and eating pop corn, the highest characteristics of the American youth. One year in Milbank or a wonder- ful experience is not always easy but just unique. Here, I found a family, many good friends, and help. Even ir my nationality makes me French, I know that a little part of myself is now American. Anne Sinet Anne Sinet: Silly Sinet the school girl.

Lowitz, J. Koopman: Me a heap big Injun. Me a big Kadota Injun through and through . . . Little Mary Sunshine is an old story with an old twist. On the one hand, it is a satire based on those wonderful years of operetta. On the other hand, it is a light-hearted romp through a maze of pretty young girls with unpaid mortgages, handsome and dashing heroes, good Indians, and evil villians. But never fear, virtue always triumphs and Little Mary, though in danger, is saved. It was a time when life was much more uncomplicated, when men were men and women were women, when right and justice were all.

It was nourished with love, care, kindness, education, hard- ships, and understanding. With the sunshine radiated from teachers and friends, the seed that is we students blossomed. Here at MHS, our country sunshine has been abundant and warm. It wafts through the clouds and burns away the fog of worry and indecision. Its rays penetrate to each corner of each building and reach the chilling emptiness of each student. Throughout the season of high school years, we as seeds have flourished. Think what we were as sprouting and green fresh- men. Contrast that with the maturing colors we display now. We wonder as we reflect in our future. Will each of us bring to full fruition his hopes and talents? Will each of us reflect the nurture given us here at MHS? Only time can tell; time spent with professions practiced, families raised, and challenges met and mastered. One crop, that of high school graduation, has been harvested. Some crops have been abundant and prosperous. Others have not. They have been hurt by drought and neglect. But it is the end of the season, and it is time for a new season to begin. So now, dear friends, as our school season draws to a close, so does one major chapter in our lives. Now in the spring, as new crops are being planted and given life, so are we, as graduating seniors, given new lives of our own. In one final word to you all. I would just like to say, “Thank you for being a friend. Leah Bohn (Ed.-in-Chief) Closing Theme Page 110 Autographs Autographs
