CINDER DUST MEMORIES - 1969 Competitors--that one word pretty well sums up the 1969 Hawk- ette track team and they earned it through a lot of hard work. The Hawkettes manufactured their finest season since 1966 as they won every meet on their regular season schedule. They started-.out by easily winning duals over Gilbert andWest Marshall. Then they topped a 19-team Queens Relays field at Zear- ing, scoring 87 points and cashed in their talent to annex their sec- ond straight Heart-of-lowa Conference Relays by gliding to a 138 point total. After that, the Hawkettes dominated the 13-team Rockette Relays meet at Churdan with 75 counters and regained their Hawk- ette Relays Crown by scoring 87 1X2 points. In their final regular season meet, the Hawkettes swept to their seventh consecutive Dis- trict Meet crown with 59 points in the 30-team diadem. As a result of their efforts in the District, 14 girls qualified for the State Meet in seven events. Six new school records went into the books this spring and the Hawkettes now have one of the finest set of standards in central Iowa. Ten of the marks would have placed in this year's State Meet and five of them would have been winning performances. New records came when sophomore Deb Nelson unleashed a 33' 8 effort in the shot put, junior Ruth Hill scampered over the 220-yard timbers in :33.3, Deb Lutjen, another junior, toured the 880-yard run in2:43.4 and the mile relay composed of Deb Larson, a senior, Carol John- son, a junior, and freshmen Becky Greenfield and Deb Andrews, stopped the watches in 4:23.8.Cindy Jacobson snapped the 220-yard dash record with a :28.0 clocking and Carol Johnson set a new stand- ard in the 440-yard run-- :67.7. Many fine performers will be among next year's hopefuls with 20 of 25 letter winners returning. However, any analysis of this year 's team would be incomplete without mentioning the seniors: Deb Larson, Neva Anderson, Chris Ehlert, Sue Teig and Deb John- son. Miss Larson and Miss Anderson were the co-captains and did an outstanding job in leading a relatively young team. It is my hope that our senior's examples of leadership and desire will challenge next year's team to another great season. 150 Co-Captains Deb Larson and Neva Anderson Coa c hes Ass't Coach, Miss Peg Peterseng.

152 Miss Peg Petersen Becky Ioerger HAILL OF FAME A former All-Stater and All-American from Ev- erly and now a teacher in the South Hamilton Commu- nity Schools, Hall of Famer from the year 1963, Peg Petersen. Miss Petersen, a freshman girls' basketball coach at South High, had a brilliant four year career at Everly, playing in three State Tournaments. She was an All-State selection in 1961, 1962, and 1963, also be- ing named to the All-State Tournament team in the lat- ter two years. With a career total of 4,458 points, in- cluding 1,502 in one season and 78 in one game, she'll rank high on the list of Iowa's all-time scorers. After high school, Peg went to college at Iowa Wesleyan, where she earned All-American laurels in 1964 and in the same year was a member of the United States team which played in the World Tournament held in Lima, Peru. But to be named to the Hall of Fame, one needs to be more than a great athlete. They must have excellent character and establish themselves as a good citizen. Already known for her speaking ability and her willing- ness to lend a helping hand to her physical education students, we at South High take pride in sharing with Everly--Hall of Famer Peg Petersen. IGHSAU COVER GIRL 1969 Tournament time brought mixed emotions for one South Hamilton Hawkette in particular--Becky Ioerger. Two days after the Hawkettes got bumped out of a State Tournament trip by Rockwell City in the District finals, Becky was notified that she had been selected as Cover Girl for the State Tourney. Being named Cover Girl is the highest honor we can bestow upon any one Iowa girl, remarked E. Wayne Cooley, executive secretary of the IGHSAU when he an- nounced Becky's selection. The Cover Girl, which the IGHSAU feels reflects the image of inter-scholastic athletics for girls in Iowa, is chosen literally from hundreds of high school athletics with a premium placed on appearance and personality. Becky 's athletic versatility in basketball and soft- ball is'well known. Yet during the State Tournament, as she participated in several live radio and television in- terviews, a less-publicized facet of her character ap- peared. With expert ease she fielded the questions con- cerning the value of athletics with the poise and mature judgement of an adult and the charm which belongs only to a teenager. Her answers and appearance at the tournament, as we were sure it would, brought much credit and pride to her family, her friends, teachers and coaches and her school.
