Linda Canham became a secretary at Oakfield High School in 1971. Her cheerful ways have been with our class since 1974. And because of the type of person she is, we, the Class of 1978, would like to thank her for her kindness and respect. When we first entered Oakfield High School as freshman we barely knew Linda Canham. But as time went on we all naturally got to know her. Her smile, it greeted us every morning. Her actions, they made us laugh and enjoy her company, but most of all, her respect made us want to be like her. Because of these things we, the Class of 1978, would like to thank her with all our hearts. We will never forget Linda Canham, and our best wishes go with her always. Zhey keep things running smoothly Picture at left: Mr. Flury, custodian. Top, at right: Mr. Baeten, principal. Middle: Mr. George, superintendent. Bottom: Cooks, from left to right: Mrs. Leidgen, Mrs. Brink, Mrs. Sup-renand, Mrs. Peterson, Mrs. Franke. 4 It is the wish of all those involved in education, that our graduating students will be the future citizens that will carry our country on to prosperity and peace. The members of the senior class certainly have the potential to be leaders of the future. Choose a field of interest early, work hard and I’m sure the goals reached will be self-fulfilling. —Mr. Baeten Top, at left: Mrs. Canham, secretary. Top, at right: Mr. Canham, custodian.

The result of hours of hard work was a moving and well-acted preformance the actors can be proud of.

A few weeks before Christmas a break-in occurred at the school and Mr. Hamilton’s stereo was stolen. It was with this stereo that Mr. Hamilton entertained us when we were in his room. The student body all pitched in and replaced it. Below: Santa is about to tell Mr. Hamilton about his big surprise. learns to give than to receive The Christmas Program was opened up with carols sung by the Spanish Club. The chorus added selective numbers from their concert. Skits were performed by the freshmen, junior and senior classes. Santa was on hand to give out presents to those who deserved them. This year awards were given out for the best skit. Teachers judged the skits, the scores were tallied, and the winner was announced. It was the juniors.

Cheryl Honold handed the editorial responsibilities over to Pam Kester. Organizing reporters’ assignments, scheduling work sessions, recruiting typists—all the details of publishing each issue meant two years of hard work for Cheryl and her editorial staff. Pam looks forward to several years of the same hard work. —Mr. Tritz We Preserve the Memories The yearbook staff has worked very hard to preserve the Memories of 1977-78. The 12 members of the staff have given many hours to the planning of this yearbook. They have waged constant battles to meet deadlines, to find new innovative ideas, to lay out pages and track down copy. Under the watchful eyes of Mr. McLean and Miss Fischer the staff worked steadily. The co-editors, Rose Gau and Jane Esparza, provided the needed leadership. The result of all our work is this yearbook, and we are proud of it. Student Council The Student Council started out this year without any money in the treasury. It began to pick up with bake sales that were held after basketball games. We decided to sponsor a Computer Dance, with John’s Disco providing the music. The dance was a big success. We have a good group in the Student Council this year. Everyone, at some time, does their part to make whatever we’re doing a success. I can see that some of them will make good leaders for the Student Council next year. President-Bob Dineen Front row from left to right; B. Dineen, B. Wagenknecht, Mr. Baeten, K. Collien, L. Bliss.

One of the biggest steps toward enriching the OHS chapter was the addition of guys to the membership. The candle sale was a success. A Halloween party given for the youngsters of the community, a bake sale, fall and spring rallies, a YMCA party and a benefit dance for the March of Dimes, were all activities sponsered by the FHA that proved to be fun for all. Besides enjoyment, the group has found FHA a place for learning, sharing and growing which we hope will continue. Miss Adams 9.7. A. The Future Farmers of America activities encourage members to learn how to conduct and take part in public events. The FFA National Organization is celebrating their 50th Anniversary, while the Oakfield Chapter is looking forward to their 1st anniversary when they’re affiliated this June at Green Lake. Mr. Matzke And Beat (joes In the 1977-78 school year the Oakfield High School Chorus started a new tradition under the directorship of Mr. Kloes. Their goals were to promote a greater level of appreciation and understanding of vocal music. They accomplished this goal not only by the diverse selection of music they choose to sing but also by their attitudes and strong character they showed in performance. The Chorus of 1977-78 set a high goal and good foundation for others to meet and build upon in the future congratulations to all of you. Mr. Kloes Due to dedication and enthusiasm, the band can be proud of itself. The Christmas Concert was a success and we are looking forward to all opportunities to perform for the public.

Members had a good time popping corn and making hot chocolate and change. Early in the fall we took a field trip to the Museum of Science and Industry in Chicago, where we stood in a long line to get into the coal mine. The Club purchased two more calculators and made them available for student use. Early in January we tried a new venture; we sponsored a movie called “In Search of Ancient Astronauts”. Spring activities included our bridge-building contest, paper airplane contest, a UFO speaker, and our annual Spring field trip and picnic. —Mr. Messner £1 club de Sspauol Art Club Students showed an interest in organizing an Art Club, and in November it was established.

It was again a time for enjoying the foods, culture, and souvenirs of many lands. In December, the club presented the carols in Spanish for the school assembly. Our spring “fiesta” consisted of making tacos and breaking the “pinata”. —Senora Dehn 59 Minds and Coordination Make the Might Mooes 60 Top row, from left: Todd makes a wrong move, Math team multiplies in numbers.

It was the first time ever for the Oakfield girls to take a Regional Victory and Trophy. Many goals were accomplished throughout the season. Team work, dedication, and sportsmanship were our main ones. Each of these girls can classify themselves as an athlete. They are gracious in victory, courteous in defeat but above all a team.

The victim was Lomira, 14-13. The winning TD was scored by Dick Franke with just minutes left. A two-point conversion on a pass from Jeff Redman to Lance Kintz-ler cinched a win. Franke set a conference record on the 87 yard return. This season Captain’s honors were won by Tim Riese and Jeff Redman. The Most Valuable Player award went to Jeff Redman.

Having tasted victory the runners may now have enough incentive to run during the summer. Loneliness of the long distance runner begins in July. Golf Twelve boys came out for golf in spring of 1977, and all remained to enjoy a successful season. Players occassionally moved up or down from Varsity to J.

The opportunities in Industrial Arts courses are better than ever for 1978-1979 school year. Basic Shop, Woodworking, and Drafting will continue to be offered. Metals will be a new course offered and will include small engines and welding. We are fortunate to have such a good facility as our new shop. Finally, Vocational Agriculture is baing taught in the Oakfield School District, where there is a strong future in agriculture. With the fine facility and the backing of the school district, the program will continue to grow.
