The outstanding landrnarlc of Pierre is' the Capitol building which tawersfabove all the other structures in theicity. This building denotes the seat of State Government in South Dakota. Because of its location, Pierre has distinctive features. ...it marks the center of South Dakota and North America.' Also located in Pierre are federal andgcounty buildings? a Memorial Building, a Senior ljligh School, a Junior High School and three grade schools. ' V ' a.

Schooler 0'C6W0'C At the beginning of a new school year, nearly every student enters Pierre High with an eager anticipation of the events the coming term is certain to have in store for him. Summer- interrupted friendships are refreshed, and a new interest in classes has been acquired. Extra-curricular organizations are soon functioning, and one week glides quickly into another. Many of the pleasant and memorable experiences of school are likely to be forgotten in the speeding from one activity to another. Other experiences bring forth only an indistinct recollection of their having existed, while a few will always be remembered. In your 1945 Gumbo, wefhave attempted to portray the school year that has passed. VVe have tried to include in that picture thc things we feel will keep Pierre High fresh in your mind always. .jejfcaffon 'flllfl 6.4 A-CAOOZIPC To every student of Pierre High School, James C. Schooler is a symbol of education combined with loyalty and cooperation. His guid- ance and direction have made this GUMBO possible. In appreciation for his patience and efforts, we dedicate this year- book, the 1915 GUMBO, to him.

The administration of the schools of Pierre is vested in the Board of Education, made up of representative citizens of Pierre.

Starting with a nucleus of eight returning letter winners, and about fifty other enthusiastic aspirants, coaches Kleinsasser and Burroughs developed a strong winning combination which upset the formerly undefeated Gettysburg eleven, 27 to 0, in the last game of the season. The prospects at the beginning of school were poor. The team lacked experience and size, and it appeared as if it were going to have a tough job in holding up the traditions of Pierre High School. In every game, there seemed to be no lack of the spark and fighting spirit for which Pierre teams have long been noted. The season started with a 6 to 0 win over a veteran Miller team. Although the Governors did not look too impressive, it, nevertheless, was a sweet vic- tory. Feeney scored Pierre's lone touchdown by running off tackle from Miller's forty yard line. Lindyis kick was wide and low. In the second game of the season, the Governors lost a heartbreaker, 7 to 6, at Mobridge after leading the Tigers 6 to 0 until the last four minutes of play. A penalty and series of bad breaks gave Mobridge the ball one foot from pay dirt. Starkey scored Pierre's lone touchdown from the eleven yard line on an off tackle play. Lindy's kick against a strong wind was low. The Governors were badly off form for their homecoming game with the smooth Gregory team and suffered a 27 to 7 defeat. Feeney scored Pierre's touchdown by running 40 yards around end. Gaylord Norman scored the extra point over left tackle. A revitalized Pierre team, after yielding a touchdown to Rapid City early in the game, came back strong to score two touchdowns and lead the Cob- blers 13 to 6 until the last five seconds of play. The Cobblers scored on an end run and tied the score with an extra point. Pierre scored its first touch- down on a beautiful pass from Starkey to Lindekugel. Starkey scored the second touchdown on an off tackle play from the eleven yard line. Off-side penalties robbed Pierre of several scoring opportunities. Gaylord Norman scored the extra point after the second touchdown over right tackle. The following week a badly crippled Pierre team traveled to Huron to help celebrate their homecoming festivities. The Governors were too light and inexperienced for the veteran Tigers, and lost 32 to 13. Both of Pierre's touchdowns were scored on pass plays. Injuries to key players seriously handicapped Pierre's chances of winning against Winner. The Governors lost 21 to 12. The Governors played their most impressive game against the undefeated Gettysburg team. Although four regulars were on the sidelines, the Governors got off to a flying start by running across three touchdowns in the first quar- ter. The game ended 27 to 0 in favor of the Governors. Each of the starting backfield players scored a touchdown. The prospects for next year are encouraging. The team will not be espe- cially large but should make up for that in speed and experience. Five letter- men from the backfield and seven lettermen from the line will return next year, along with at least a dozen others who gained considerable experience this year and like to play a clean, hard hitting game. Thirty-th ree 1944 Football ' 2 Thirty-four F76me 7696 Sobel .lACK STARKEYfCaptain Jock was one ot the most experienced players on the squad He was the outstanding back of the conference, being very strong defensively, and sparked the team on offense with his hard blocking He was a nice ball carrier and developed into an accurate passer before the season was over He called the plays during the last half of the season and kept the opponents guessing as to what would come next JOHN BERRY-Senior-guard John was one of the big boys on the squad and saw a lot of action, lt was his second year on the squad He tried hard and won his letter out of sheer determination. THOMAS CORCORAN-Senior--guard This was Tom's second letter in football, and he proved inval- uable to the squad with his fight and spark The opponents seldom tried to come through his position. RUGLAS GRABOVV -- Senioreeend This was Rug's first year out for football, and he earned a regular end position on the team l-le was a good pass- snatcher as well as a valuable defense player MARSHALL MILLER- Senioretackle Marshall was a letterman back from last year, and he helped a lot in makina the team into a compact unit PHIL NORMANfSenior-W tackle This was Phil's third letter in football, and he proved invaluable ta the mora'e of the team He was switched from guard to tackle this year and when Phil oat going both he and the team were hard to stop. Phil was the spark pluq of the line throughout the season. DON ZERSCHLlNG-Senior-tackle. This was Don's first year out. and he really had to work hard to fill his brother's shoes lt wasn't until the middle of the season that Don got going, but from then an he saw a lot of action. V, CHARLES LINDEKUGEL-Senior-end. Charles was a regular back from last year. He was one of the big boys and could really get up in the air and pull the passes down. Chuck was one of the out- standing punters as well as place kickers that we saw during the season. LYLE HEDMAN-Junior-guard. Lyle was out for football last year, but this was his first letter. Although he was light he proved himself plenty touah and rugged, BERNARD HENGEL-Junior-guard. Bernie was one of the few juniors that earned the right to start in the early games. .l-le was light but was known never to back up for anyone. GEORGE HlPPLE-Junior-halfback. George was the substitute halfback and was ready to go in when anything happened to the regulars, He took a big part in the Governors' great victory over Gettysburg. JOHN l-llPPLE-Junior-center. John, twin broe ther of George, was somewhat lighter. Like his brother he was always ready to go in and take over the center position. DALE THORESON- Junior-tackle. Dale was another boy who earned his first letter this year. Dale showed plenty of fiqhtinq spirit. LAVIN PETERSON-Junior-auarterback. This is Lavin's second letter in football. l-le has neither the weight nor the size but he has the stuff that makes an athlete LINDY FEENEY-Sophomore!halfback. Lindy was a Feeneyg that's all that need be said. He has already gained fame throughout the state because of his track activities, and before he graduates from P HS., he should really be heard from in the way of football. GAYLORD NO R MA N - Sophomore-fullback. Gaylord should be mentioned along with Lindy. Although he is only a sophomore, he came through like a veteran. RALPH GlLBERT-Sophomore-end. Ralph will be one of the great all-around athletes in PHS.. and football isn't one of his lesser sports, as he earned o startinq position in many games. JlMMY LlNN-Sophomore-center. Jim was a so-called veteran. having earned his letter in his freshman year. This year he took over the regular :enter position. MIKE MADDEN-Sophomore-center. Mike was a sort of utility man of the squad, playing wherever he was needed. He sow ericugh action to win his letter.

The rest of the squad included one other member of last year's team and seven graduates from the li team. After experimenting with various combinations, the team finally rounded into shape and won seventeen games in succession before going to the state tour- nament. The Governors suffered only three defeats during the season. These were one to Aberdeen and two to Iluron early in the year. The Governors won top honors in the Southern Division of the Central South Dakota Conference and won the play-off from Gettysburg, the Northern Division Champion, to win the Central South Dakota Confer- ence Championship. Pierre also won top honors in the Central South Dakota Conference Tournament held at Pierre by decisively defeating Ipswich, Miller, and Gettysburg. An- other highlight of the season was defeating Rapid City twice on successive evenings by wide margins. In the sectional tournament, at Mitchell, Pierre easily disposed of XVinner, 56 to lti, and outscored Mitchell, Ill to 28, in a hard fought galne. The Governors are now anxiously preparing for the defense of the state title at Aberdeen.

His height was a valuable asset in retrieving the ball ofi' both back- boards. He also was a constant scor- ing threat. BILL ROBINSON - Senior - guard, earned his second letter this year. Bill was a dangerous scorer and helped to steady the team when pressure was on. RVGLAS Gniusow - Senior! guard, was a member of last year's squad but did not play due to illness. He was shifted from a forward to a guard position early in the season and proved to be a tower of strength on defense. He was a dangerous scorer at all times. Glsomns H1ver.:-:vJunioraforward, played his first season on the varsity team. He was a clever ball handler and a consistent scorer. RALPH GlLl5liHT+SOlJll0lll0I'C - forward, also played his first season on the team Ralph's accurate shoot- ing and foliow-up work under the basket earned him a position on the team late in the season. lxlI'Il.VIN CHANDLER e- Senior - re- serve center, filled Lindekugel's position capably whenever the occa- sion required it. JACK S'rARKisY --reserve guard, earned his second letter. Jack parti- cipated in a lot of games and was always aggressive. Four Juniors who earned letters are Lavin Peterson, Bob Sage, For- rest Myhres, and John Hipple. These boys showed plenty of fight and gained a lot of experience. V l'hirty-seven Thirty-eight ' aasmz TRACK AND FIELD The ltltl track season was a very successful one for the green and white. The tirst meet was the Pierre Relays in which Pierre took first in the Medley and the Two Mile relays, as well as tirsts in several individual events. The next weekend the boys went to the Aberdeen Relays where they took third in the H0 relay, and fourth in the Medley relay. Lindy Feeney took second honors in the 100 Yard dash.

In'uries to l.indv Feenev cut dee Jlv into the chances of the freen- .I . . I , . clad cindermen in the State meet. Feeney, who is only a freshman. has great possibilities as a runner. Two Pierre High School records were broken during the season. Lindckugel set a new Discus record of 124 ft. 10 in. Robinson broke the Mile Run record made by Donald VVilliams in 1934.

Sixty I I S 64006 CLASS PROPHECY In the year 1965, while coming up the Mighty Muddy 011 Olll' let propelled raft, it SDFUUE H leak, so we turned into the Dainty Dottie floating garage and asked for the manager, who turned out to be none other than DOROTHY SOMMER, AL once she set her speediest mechanics, LEONARD FLASH YOUNG and JEAN SPEED YOUNG, to work on the raft. While waiting for repairs we decided to tour the old home town. We hailed a taxi driven by LES CABBY MADISON, who suggested we drive through Paradise Valley. Here we noticed HOWARD TEGLAND sleeping in the sun while his wife, the f0I'meI' PI-IYLLIS BYRNES, slopped the hogs. We got out in the lower business district and Started nur Walkilig t0l1l'- WVe fiI'St St0DDef1 at the State Theater, now run by TOMMY CORCORAN, On our asking why he was so excited he explained about his famous best seller- With You Through TWO Reels in a Proiection Booth. We congratu- lated him and were ushered out by DELORIS LANE and ROBERTA URQUHART. Leaving the theater we strolled past the Capital Journal Office and ran into SHIRLEY STAMPE. After picking ourselves up, we noticed the remains of the Second National Bank, which had been blown up by the ANDERSON AMAZONS. PEARL'S mob consists of HAZEL THE HIDEOUS YALE, MARY MUGGER HOFFMAN, EDITH BOTTLES BECHARD, and last but not least the maul of the gang, FRANK SCHUMACKER, Hot on their trail with his nose to the ground was the constable, PETER GERTONSON. As we continued we met JACK STARKEY, who is now a disciple of the noted evangelist, ZONA DUNSMORE. JACK told us that while trying to convert the populace of Teton he dropped into the nearest sewer to share a snack with GEORGE HANNAN, who is running for president of the Sewer Society of that town. We said goodby to JACK and proceeded. Something ran into our knees. On look- ing down we discovered it to be COACH KLEINSASSER. He told us the whereabouts of some of his former athletes. CHARLES OPHIEM is defending his record of twenty-nine times around the track in three days and three nights. JERRY MEREDITH is still courting JO RAWLINS. We were inter- rupted by JEANNE LINN, a reporter on the Prairie Press. Her slogan is, I hear all, see all, and TELL all. She told us of some of the coming events to take place. The one that caught our fancy was the open house party to be held at CARLEY JENSEN'S house that evening. We planned to attend, so stopped to refresh at PHILIP HALL'S new hotel Ye Old Log Inn. As we passed through the cocktail lounge we were just in time to catch the last strains of the super-duet of WINIFRED WEST and JOHN BERRY. Not having much time we just nodded at them and went on up to our rooms. We had never before seen such snappy room service. No sooner had we entered our rooms than the chambermaid, JOAN DENNISON, dashed in with free stogies for all. After we recovered from the El Ropeas we stepped into the elevator. At the dining-room door we were greeted by the head waitress, BETTY MILLER. She cautiously showed us to our table. IRENE OLSEN, with the help of DOROTHY SCHUMACKER, generously served us with the hotel's special- one meat ball. We left the dining room and hiked to the party. We were attended at the door by the butler, CHUCK FACKLER, the only butler that bottles while he butles. We strolled into the ballroom and were clipped by BILL ROBINSON and GLADYS BENTLY dancing to the melody of I Dream of Ferdy with the Light Brown Nose, written by DAR- LENE McBRIDE and dedicated to FRED NELSON. Behind the potted palms we noticed DON ZERSCH- LING and SHIRLEY ESKELSON-still rough-necking. At this time our hostess introduced the honored guests of the evening-CHARLENE DOHERTY, GEORGIE ABEEL, and MARIAN WINCKLER, the first feminine judges of the juvenile courts. They know the ropes!! Across the room we noticed BETTY OLSON. She told us of THE CHARLES LINDEKUGEL, now starring in Frankenstein and the Cat Lady, with MARGE DAVIS as his leading lady. During refresh- ments we were entertained by the noted toe dancing team of BETH PUTMAN and BOB VOGEL. After a slight applause they were driven from the spotlight. The program ended with the weight lifting act of EILEEN NELSON and MARVIN SWAN. ' The party was in full swing when we cornered SHAD BURKE for a chat. He told us that after twenty years CAROLINE JACKUS had been overcome by his pleading and married him in a weak moment. The ceremony had been performed by the REV. JIM KELLAR, a prominent leader of the Lily-whiters. He also told us of the successful marriage ot FERN GAMBREL and BOB CAPIN, now living south of town on a chicken farm raising little capons. The clock struck twelve and all forty of us trooped into the kitchen for a midnight snack pre- pared by the cook, ILENE JONES. She served us ROD NELSON'S new recipe for Hslurpless soup. It was time to leave, so we thanked our hostess and departed. On our way back to the hotel we heard the fire whistleg a few seconds later the fire chief, GENE PASHBY, madly peddled by on his bicycle. We entered the lobby of the hotel and to our amazement we found that ex-playboy, CHIP NOR- MAN, cleaning the spitoons. We slipped past the sleeping night clerk, MARTHA SCHMIDT, and went to our rooms. We awoke to a nice sunny day and started back to the garage. On the way we passed MARSHALL MILLER, the shutter snapper of the town, taking pictures of his model, the body beautiful, LOUIS KRULL. In front of the garage we were stopped by IRENE SNYDER, made famous by her short stories. One of her more classic works is Saddie the Saint. The raft not being quite finished, we dropped around the corner into BEULAH GRIGGS'S art shop. Here we found MELVIN CHANDLER and RUG GRABOW admiring some of the finer busts. We asked BEULAH about BETTY IHLI. She informed us that BETTY had gone into partnership with GWEN HARTWELL. They have started a new recreation parlor. They brag about having the only pin- ball machine you can't tilt. It was getting on toward noon and time to leave. Again we entered the garage. At the entrance we heard the manager heartily arguing with FLORENCE DONAHUE over a two and a half cent over- charge on a repair bill on her new B-75. FLORENCE is quite proud of her new airship which is fully equipped to care. for her fly-babies. Leaving this scene of excitement, we boarded our repaired raft. As we pushed out into the water we brushed aside JUNE THORPE, still fishing for suckers, and sailed on up the Mighty Muddy in search of further adventure. 7745 CLASS XVILI.
