1We have the option to do what we want to do: spending our afternoons playing golf at Braemar, rehearsing for "Fiddler on the Roof,” making signs for SWATS, having a job at Dayton’s, or studying for Mr. Pegor’s biology test. There are opportunities for everyone, along with a means to express those individual talents. Class selections from cinema arts to ceramics and pottery, participation in intramural sports instead of varsity, hobbies that vary from flying to coin collecting are a few of our choices. The opportunities are here to be drawn upon; but the ultimate responsibility lies inside each one of us to recognize, nurture, and develop our particular talents . . .
And we are.
5can do it! Brain surgeon, forest ranger, secretary, tennis pro, carpenter, domestic engineer, rock star: what's your choice?
Each day, consciously and unconsciously, we set goals for ourselves. Supportive parents, superb youth parkboard programs, intensive music training, caring church groups, and a school system geared to the individual needs of its students help to make these individual aims attainable.
6Some goals are more easily achieved than others: being first in the lunch line or remembering a locker combination after spring break. The more complicated objectives involve a greater amount of time and effort: growing in our personal relationships or making the right career choice.

things come too easily? Do we have too much freedom? Possibly. Some of us abuse this privilege or lack the self discipline it demands. Mistakes are made but hopefully we learn and challenge ourselves to do better next time. We can complete that term paper on time; we can overcome our shyness and ask someone to Prom; we can challenge and win the next chair in band. Out go the old cliches: "Girls are no good in sciences; boys would never take a sewing class." Each one of us must have the right to choose whatever appeals to him or her. But the quality of work in everything from cooking to computer technology takes pride, discipline, caring, ambition, and yes, even a spirit of competition.
Can we cope? Can we meet the new challenge? We're from Edina West. . .
YES WE CAN!

16Where’s that spirit? Come on let's hear it! Little controversy arose over the fact that the '77'78 year at Edina-West contained the most enthusiastic students yet! From pep-fests to football games, attendance was high and vibrant cheering echoed throughout the stands. Senior Barb Frey commented, “The spirit was great because people seemed to care more about sports and school activities.” Sophomore Gardner Gay expressed great satisfaction with his first year at Edina West. “School spirit was great here. I have never been in a school where the kids took part in so many things.”
Perhaps the most unique manifestation of spirit was the A-Buf experi-
ence. They kept everyone chanting at pepfests as they cavorte around on the floor. Junior Dave Ellingson responded to their efforts, "They’re crazy . . . but they're great!” Regina McGrath also commented, "They were fun because they did not mind making fools of themselves." Other groups promoting spirit included the sophomore and junior spirit committees; SWATS; Cougarettes; cheerleaders; and at Homecoming, the Cougarrats.
All in all, the athletic teams had terrific seasons and student partici pation was high in various activities. These factors undoubtedly brought a demand for school spirit which was overwhelmingly fulfilled.Yes we can

His most rewarding accomplishment was playing the lead role of Tevye, in the production of the musical “Fiddler on the Roof." “Initially I felt overwhelmed and incompetent, but it was really gratifying to accept the challenge, devote myself to it, and see it work through a successful conclusion." Other personal accomplishments include being a recipient of an NOTE Achievement Award in Writing, maintaining a high academic average, and the growth of his relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ. Finally, being Homecoming King was a tremendous honor. “It made me thankful for the opportunities I have had to develop personal relationships with a variety of people."

?TUD€hT LifeTwenty-two seniors go to court
"Back Together Again?” At four in the morning, ”The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face” would have been more appropriate. This was how it began for the members of the '77- 78 Homecoming Court. On Monday September 26. twenty-two seniors were roused from their sleep by the thunderous clamor of the student council. Though Kris Foust hid timidly under her covers. Mike Lewis staggered unknowingly into the presence of fifteen some girls, covered only by his boxers. Via a convoy which acknowledged no stop signs, the new Homecoming Court made its way to junior Tom Hauser’s house to enjoy a celebration of dancing and donuts.
Court activities began before Homecoming week even came around. Opening with a night at Lord Fletcher's set an exciting pace which was maintained throughout the week. Eating at home became a rare event; dinner at Regli's and Vidmar's joined by brunch at Kerker's, High’s, and Denny’s added inches to many waistlines. An East-West barbecue at Langefel’s topped off the feasts. Seeing Steve Schultz fall off a cliff at Taylors Falls was unforgettable. Sharing memories at a picture party later in the year tied the Court’s week in a wonderful bow.
Emotions peaked at coronation. When chosen as queen, Julie Barrett’s reaction was, ”1 thought Sofie had picked the wrong girl. I kept telling him to move on down the line."
The Court’s week was a truly festive celebration of Homecoming. In summation, Anne Denny commented, "P.T.L."

West gets it together
After a leisurely three day weekend. Homecoming 'll burst into action on October 4 with the Edina West tradition of enthusiasm and spirit. In spite of the achievement and proficiency tests, the excitement merged in many forms.
Starting in on Wednesday with the annual Hat Day. several students made spectacles of themselves. Hats ranged from tennis visors to a fencing hat with deer antlers on top.
Following on Thursday was the Royal Court coronation, where upon twenty-two favorites from the senior class were introduced and welcomed into the 1977 Royal Court. The big moment finally arrived. Who would become king and queen? The silent

hush exploded into exuberant applause as Mark Solfelt and Julie Barrett were crowned.
Festivities continued on into Friday. The day ended with a rowdy, spirited pepfest that psyched up the team for the Homecoming game which was to be held that same night. After two postponements due to rain, the game was finally held Monday night. During the game the Cougars did indeed. "Wipe the spots off the Jaquars," 19-

One of the many highlights of the week was the memorable Homecoming dance, which was held Saturday night at Southdale center with the theme "Back together again.” Talking, eating, and dancing to the beat of the group "Oreon" were all part of the merriment.
All of these activities contributed to make homecoming one of the most fabulous, fun-filled weeks of the school year.

24Tradition carries on
“It was awfully frustrating in the beginning,” commented sophomore Karen Maley. The first readings and rehearsals gave a frightening glimpse of what was to come. All of the actors and actresses of Fiddler on the Roof soon realized the feat which they were to undertake.
The time element was phenomenal. Barb Sortino (12), who played the role of the third daughter, stated, "It was a big commitment ... in fact I think I lived and breathed Fiddler for two and a half months." Few spectators were aware of the two and a half hour prac-
tices, five days a week, that most leads endured. For the villagers, orchestra members, and crew members, weekly practices at night, dress rehearsals and performances were a big enough bite to chew.
Many of the leads agreed that characterization was the most difficult task to conquer. For a predominantly Christian cast, conveying Jewish traditions was a formidable goal. Eric Felton (11) explained this aspect of the production, "It was hard to understand that you had to be that person. You could not go out on stage as yourself."
The make up, designed and applied by Tom Amundson (fac.), helped all the cast members to get a better feel of their character. For the guys, wearing a beard was a new experience. The make-up of various leads required up to two hours of patience, John Trones
(12) remarked, "I hated putting it all on, but it was neat to see how I changed."
Audience response was an exciting and new experience for those who had practiced for weeks with no laughter or applause. Five out of five sold out performances indicated the interest and support that Fiddler received. Stated senior Liz Eifrig, "It all seemed so professional." Added Barb Frey (12), "Everything was well united, the costumes, lighting, make up, set, and music." Though applause was rewarding, most of the actors and actresses felt that the experience of being on stage in such an elaborate production was more worthwhile and fulfilling and was the key to Fiddler on the Roof.
The emotional, physical and mental strains were incredible. In summation, Trones said, "It all paid off."

Lights, camera, action . . . The Edina-West symphony orchestra presented “Soundtrack," featuring motion picture themes in their sixth annual Cafe Concert held on December 1 and 2 in the Leo J. Fick Auditorium.
Equipped with twenty-three string instruments, twenty-six wind instruments and one piano, the orchestra opened with a Spanish traditional
called “Espani Cani." They also played selections from "The Sound of Music" in which Sue Nydahl (12), Michelle Melichar (12), Kim Jones (12), Alicia Ultan (12), Jacqueline Ultan (12), and Jennifer Arndt (11) were featured soloists. Other movie themes presented were selections from "The King and I," "Love Story," "Exodus," and "Mondo Cane." For a grand finale the orchestra played songs from "A Christmas Festival" in which the audience participated and sang along.
Kim Fleming (11) commented on the production, "The concert went really well in spite of the fact that the turnout was extremely low. It was really too bad that more people did not realize that we were not just playing Beethoven. We played mostly all light, popular music."

The Edina-West stage came alive as over 200 students captured the Christmas spirit during the Holiday Vocal concert. Harmonious carols and other winter selections echoed throughout the auditorium under the direction of Robert Peterson (fac.) and Diana Leland (fac.). The choirs that performed were chorale, varsity choir, concert choir, and chamber singers. Weeks and weeks of preparation were necessary to conjure up the finished product, a musical winter wonderland.
To incorporate the theme of the concert, each choir performed a selection entitled “Alleluia." Diemer's “Alleluia,” Pergolesi’s “Alleluia,” and Thompson’s “Alleluia” were the three works presented by the individual choirs. Combining the groups in a mass choir, Peterson directed the orchestra and the singers in the traditional piece from Handel's Messiah, "The Hallelujah Chorus.”
Other highlights of the concert included Mendelssohn's “Heilig” and "The Christmas Song.” The turnout for the two night production was gratifying considering the competition it received during the holiday season. Concert choir member Carol Daly (12) concluded, "It was hard work preparing for the concert but the overall outcome was worthwhile."

stirring
Incorporating vivacious talent with relevant characters, the winter play, “Spoon River Anthology,” revived even the most lifeless audiences. The two-act production, based on Edgar Lee Masters works, involved thirty-one cast and crew members. With Larry Stotts (fac.) as director, “Spoon River” was destined to be exhilarating.
The setting, an old graveyard situated in Illinois, provided unique appeal to its audiences. As Sue Jenny (12) stated, “People tasted a different kind of theater than they were used to."
Analysis of the play revealed an absence of a central figure. Equal emphasis was placed on living experiences of each ghost dwelling in Spoon River. As each told of his or her assumed-to-be upstanding life, surprising truths were revealed. Successful lives of these spirits had their evil alter egos. Such was the case of the town's drunkard, played by Chris Rodgers (12). Hypocritically appearing in church on Sundays, he justified his abuse of alcohol.
Although the winter play got off to a seemingly slow start, “Spoon River" ran a profitable as well as strong production.

32Gung ho for Annie
"Annie Gel Your Gun" was a musical that few students recognized. In fact, the mention of this western musical seemed suspicious to several members of the concert band. However, familiar songs like "Can’t Get a Man With a Gun" and "No Business Like Show Business” grabbed the attention of both the band and the audience, while bringing light and color to the staging of Pops West '78.
The musical pace of Pops was steady and assuring. The pieces selected by director Ed Melichar (fac.) were challenging, but well mastered
by the number of people in the band. Of particular difficulty was a French selection entitled "Mignon." Senior Kim Boyun’s trumpet solo illuminated Disney's "When You Wish Upon A Star.” The traditional finale "On the Mall” left the audience whistling a special tune at the concert's end.
Quality music was further enhanced and enlightened by the creative skits "Typewriter,” and ”The Twelve Nights of Pops." An imitation of Steve Martin by Richard Allendorf (11) cultivated hearty laughter and even a few occasional tears.
Concluded Joan Falaten (11), "Pops West was a thrill to be a part of; after school, scrambled rehearsals seemed to pull our act together. It was so exciting to see the show finally happen."

"overall”
A whirlwind of color accurately described the January Sadie Hawkins dance. Plaid shirts, jeans, overalls and hiking boots were the norm; a few exceptional costumes grabbed many folks’ attention. Hay on the floor lent a casual, farm like setting to the cafeteria; the school was transformed into farmer Jones' barn. Music by the featured band “Spark” ignited the dance floor with excitement. Marrying Sam cost a quarter, but most couples were willing to sacrifice the expense and public embarrassment. From all this and more, students recognized early in the evening that Sadie was bound to be a special kind of dance.
Having the girls ask the guys was a refreshing turnaround. Most girls enjoyed chauffeuring, opening the door, pulling out the chair, and the like. However, paying the dinner bill for some was not as amusing as the rest of the date.
Senior Steve Sponsel contributed hours of energy to the planning of Sadie Hawkins. His diligence in collaboration with the efforts of other activities council members ensured a successful dance.
As junior Tierney Boyd stated, “Sadie allowed the girls to take the guys out for a good-old, down-home fun time.”

SUIXMPH 3msWarmth brought by Spirit Week
If it were not for Spirit Week, a mixed celebration of mid winter and Valentine's Day, the numbed students of Edina-West would not have been able to survive until June. Opening the week of February 13, an arousing Spirit Day cast a glimmer of what lay ahead throughout the week.
The scheduled activities included the tempting heart button contest which not only tested feminine willpower but also proved masculine irresistibility. The proud winner of this contest was Tom Hauser (11), who managed to use his special charisma to outwit girls. Another event mcorpo rated into Spirit Week was a carnation sale. This enabled secret admirers to reveal their true feelings: red for love, blue for friends, and white for ••I'd like to get to know you better.”
As a tribute to the class of 1978, Senior Celebrities were selected. These "celebrities” represented the personalities bound for success in various circuits from Edina-West. Each celebrity was given a T-shirt, complete with the category that made him famous imprinted on the back. As a finale of this special week a pepfest was held. This was not, however, an ordinary pepfest. Not only did it provide the entertainment of a banana eating contest, won by sophomore Dave Felton, but in addition, cheerleaders and Cougarettes interchanged identities. Definitely not a typical pepfest!
Scheduled into this week of warmth, was the annual Sweetheart Dance. Due to last minute complications, the semi-formal disco night was cancelled by the student council.
One of the main objectives of Spirit Week was to unite all of Edina-West's clubs and organizations to a main cause: school spirit. Winter may bring cold feelings to some, but at Edina-West it simply stimulated "fired-up” spirit.

SPIRIT weeKDISTINCTIVELY
'78
Remember the morning you graduated to adulthood when you began to grow your first beard? Proudly scratching the dark stubble was a nonchalant indicator to friends that if you could not grow a beard, at least you were trying. Or what about your hiking boots? Winter sure provided a convenient excuse for wearing them every day. Flannel shirts served the dual purpose of yielding warmth while casually exemplifying your good taste in clothing. To top off your already perfect image, cruising around in a Fire-bird wasn’t a bad idea.
Finally you had decided in the secrecy of your own home, you were going to frizz your hair. Then you got brave and went to school convinced you had the most sophisticated hair style of your class. The stick pin on your lapel identified you as a steady reader of Seventeen. Displaying your new angora cowl neck sweater, kilt skirt, boot warmers and cowboy boots, you strutted into school confident you would receive several invitations for a weekend date. How could you have
been any more stylish?
Once the weekend arrived, you and your friends had to decide where to go. If you wanted a full meal to eat. My n, Poppin' Fresh and the traditional Perkin’s were definite possibilities. Snack food came in many varieties: donuts at Wmchell's. ice cream at Bridgeman's, Soda Fountain or Albert’s, or more commonly, French fries and a malt at MacDonald's. If you enjoyed dancing. Uncle Sam's opened its doors to teenagers once a week for a night of disco. If your taste was a bit
more sophisticated, the Guthrie or Dudley Riggs offered an amusing evening of theater. For a sophomore, cruising around with a new license in hand was contentment enough.
Regardless of how the evening was spent, the beard, hiking boots, flannel shirt. Firebird, frizzed hair, stick pm, angora cowl neck sweater, and the cowboy boots inspired a truly unique evening — in fact, it was distinctively 78.

On time
Have you seen a lot of people yawning lately? No, you are not hallucinating. This involuntary action may have been due to the recent school time change. In past years school has been from 8:10 to 2:55 while this year it began at 7:40 and ended at 2:25. Edina-West will continue this program through the year 1980 when it switches time schedules with Edina-East.
Ironically enough, in taking a survey on how people felt about the new time change, the overwhelming response was positive. “Better job hours, classes went by faster, and more homework time" were some of the reasons cited. For sophomores the time change was great. “We got home in time to watch the New Mickey Mouse Club." Negative views were limited. “In winter we went to school in the dark.” For the optimist, “The only advantage was that we could watch the ending of General Hospital."
Pro or con, the fact remains that school is school regardless of when the day begins.

One early Saturday morning last October you struggled up to the school, barely making it because you had stayed out too late the night before. Even so, you had to take the Preliminary Scholastic Aptitude Test, more commonly known as the PSAT.
The PSAT was taken by about three hundred juniors. The two and a half hour test covered verbal and mathematical reasoning. Students who took the test were contenders for the National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test. The scores were used both to establish rank among other juniors and as a requiremeht in applying for state colleges. Most important, the PSAT was a trial run for the SAT which was recognized by most colleges for admission.
The annual testing was indicative of student interest concerning post-secondary education. Through the PSAT questionnaire, participants could receive a wide variety of literature explaining college and scholarship opportunities. Finally, the testing gave a glimpse of the future, especially for the college bound junior.

CLMS Of 78A bash with splash
Dancing to the waves of “The Surf's Up,” the seniors of '77'78 demonstrated an enthusiastic class unity, a spirit often overrun by the hustle-bustle of summer vacation. On Friday night, August 12, the class of 1978 came rolling into the school year with a powerful splash. Hostesses Nancy Vidmar and Kris Foust welcomed over one hundred and twenty-five guests to the Medina Ballroom for the annual seniors-to-be bash.
The most interesting feature of the night was the variety of guests. Rather than just the "commons crowd,” the dance was attended by seniors of all types. As Tony Dammicci commented, "We all pooled together to have a great time!"
The semi-formal attire of most guests added a special flavor to the evening.
Most important, the dance was well organized as evidenced by the large turn out. Cece Frey summed up the night's success, "Having everybody there before school was what I liked!”
UPPER: Kicking off her shoes, Jeanie Chapman boogies to the beat. MIDDLE: Considering the prospect of being “senior men," Dave Kaeppel, Chris Felton, and JC Anderson find it hard to conceal their newfound macho. LOWER: Amid the excitement of the senior bash, hostesses Nancy Vidmar and Kris Foust find time to relax.

SPORTSBlue division champs
Ready down, ready set, hut 1, hut 2, hut 3 . . These words combined with fine players brought about a top notch football team for the 1977 season. They kicked off with a stunning shutout against Bloomington Lincoln which was succeeded by five straight shutouts and an undefeated season. The dazzling record of 9-0 was perfected with the final battle and subsequent triumph over East. The year ended with a loss to Richfield in the regional finals, but the team took pride in being the Blue Division champs.
Seven returning starters on the defense enabled the Cougars to shutout some of the strongest Lake Conference contenders. The team, lacking a superstar, found alternate routes to victory. Moving Spence Werness(12) to an offense runner yielded great yardage. Switching seniors Dave Carlson and Scott Harness between flanker and fullback proved to be a smart move.
Spirit was a winning necessity. Co-captain Spence Werness(12) commented, •’Everybody pulled for everybody.” In defining the team's solidarity in a different way, senior Phil Hir-schey responded, ”We were spiritually close, and I guess that was why we did so well.” Coach Slav Canakes willingly and directly expressed his ambitions and hopes to the Cougars which was the ultimate incentive for the team’s success.
The "200% increase” in school spirit provided the support which was vital to the superior performance of the players. These factors, talented players, and an experienced coach worked together in forming the best football season West has ever seen.

Aside from all the glory of a successful season, the football players knew many hardships. Being a member of a team yielded many predicaments that each player had to deal with.
The first two weeks of practice were not anticipated with feelings of joy. Although the first mandatory workout was not until August, many players had been training at the field for the two previous weeks of captain’s practice to get back into shape. In the August heat, the players ran winds-prints, “hills," a six minute mile, and drilled blocking, passing, and plays. Even though they did not always work out with their equipment on, the heat and sore muscles managed to fulfill a player’s worse expectations of pain. The first week the players underwent this ordeal only once a day. Two practices a day inevitably emerged during the second week with each one gradually increasing in duration. By the time school started, each player was almost glad to go back to the one a day workouts after school.
On rainy days, the team often went out to find their field submerged beneath a giant puddle. On August 30. a record rainfall caused a three foot deep pool to form over the entire field. Regardless, the football team exercised. They put on their shorts and played a combination football-waterpolo game with a soccer ball. This unique form of practice prepared the team for the zany weather they experienced during the season. Of all the games played, almost half were played in unfavorable conditions.
The dedication, determination, and pure guts needed for this sport was admirable and because of the hardships endured, Edina-West could take pride in their 1977 football team.

fOOTBdLL COMT. PRhCTICe':Just for kicks
The hard work demanded by coach John Olsen(fac.) during the 1977 soccer season perpetuated the Edina-West tradition of good sportsmanship and victory. Team spirit and morale reigned high among the team. “There was unifying friendship," said Doug Dornseif(12), “and that helped in team work." Indeed, the Cougars had team work as they established themselves as one of the best teams in the state.
The adoption of a new playing system was part of their success even though it took them a while to become acquainted with the formations. Instead of using the usual four lined technique of 3-2-2-3 they employed a three lined formation of 3-3-4. Because of the strength in all positions, the team felt they could make better use of their players with the new system.
Being rated number one in the state increased attendance at games. Even after losses to East and Lincoln the team and the school always came back psyched for another game. This school support, complemented by the team's mixture of friendship, three-dom, and a new playing system, helped them maintain the Edina-West tradition of outstanding teams.

104NEED A TUNE UP?
During the leisurely summer months of 'll. sunbathing on the shores of Lake Harriet and feasting on a Dairy Queen diet were common activities for Edina-West students. Meanwhile, back at school, the "cage'' received a tremendous workout from many weight lifters building up for various athletic seasons. John Olsen(fac.) supervised the room three hours a day, three days a week so it
could remain open. During the school year, Ron LaMoure(fac.) supervised the weight room in the fall, and Paul Weber(fac.) in the winter. Although the weight room was free of charge, the turnout was a bit of a disappointment. Olsen believed local health club weight rooms such as: Normandale, Interlachen Country Club, and the VMCA, drew away from attendance.
The weight room contained a vari-
ety of equipment. Brand new weights and a bench were added through a donation by the Booster Club. Plans were made for gym classes to workout in the weight room. These facilities provided a tremendous benefit to the school which hopefully will be recognized more often by the Edina-West student body.

SOCC€R CONT. BODY 9HOPA perfect match
Hard work, fun, and achievement were the ingredients for the 1977 girls' tennis team. The hard work generated from daily practices after school yielded a feeling of satisfaction for the entire team. The fun included many potlucks, "kidnappings," early breakfasts, and a weekend cabin outing. The achievement involved winning all but one match throughout the season, and a trip to the regional finals which was a first in the history of Edina-West. The individual tournament also proved to be tremendously successful, as three out of a possible four girls went to the state tournament. Amy Odland(12), first singles player, was a strong contender. Betsy Conroy(12) and Paula Buie(12), first doubles, made it as far as the quarterfinals in state.
Coach Gail Ofstehage was pleased but unsurprised by the success, since the varsity team consisted almost entirely of seniors. The team had been building for the '77 season and it certainly paid off. The leadership demonstrated by co captains Carole Regli (12) and Paula Buie(12) promoted a feeling of unity and pride; the Cougar tradition was evident. As Buie commented, "The closeness and the spirit within the team attributed to the success of our season.”

the long run . . .
Those people you have seen huffing and puffing every day after school could very well have been members of the cross country team. The team consisted of fifteen girls and forty boys. Daily runs around Lake Harriet, Bush Lake, and other surrounding lakes kept the spirit up and the muscles ready. Then, of course, there were the stops at Dairy Queen on the way home after a hard day of practice.
The team ran five to ten miles a day. At meets, the boys ran three mile races while the girls ran two mile races. The first meet was a disappointment. The bus arrived a half an hour late causing the varsity boys to miss their race. The girls, on the other hand, arrived in time to compete successfully in their meet.
Leading the teams were captains Mike Allen (12), Todd Bassinger (12), and Liz O’Brien (12). Varsity runner, Regina McGrath(IO) stated her reasons for going out for cross country, ”1 hoped to build up my endurance while having fun at the same time."

With the growing interest in volleyball, coach Molli O'Boyle (fac.) was not surprised when sixty-five girls showed up for the first day of practice early in August. Although over half of those sixty-five were freshmen and sophomores, the Edina-West girls' volleyball team became a contender for regional competition.
After the attendance had settled down and the girls had practiced their skills for two weeks, they were divided into varsity, junior varsity, and B-squad teams. They were chosen on their ability to work together, their individual skills, and how they worked under pressure.
The biggest stress was put on teamwork, as the girls practiced setting and bumping to each other. Although each girl had a specialty, they had to perform well in all areas. They came out strongest in serving and setting, and felt they did not have any real weaknesses.
In competition, the team worked out their organized movement to provide one of the toughest oppositions in the conference. “We just did not get shook-up," coach O'Boyle said, “It was the first year we were able to consistently pull out the tied points in our favor."

The girls' swim team dove into the season, ready and willing for anything. Although they did not begin on a winning streak, personal improvement was underway and the '77 year was basically a preparation for future swimming seasons. The team consisted of about twenty-five girls, both swimmers and divers.
Captains were swimmer Julie Gir-van (11) and diver Tina Ayd (12). They helped keep the team spirit up by weekly dinners, candy bags at each meet, and special swim team shirts. Coaches Pat Blazick and Wendy Ehl-ers were new to the team and may have been a factor linked to the weak start.
To keep physically fit, the team used the weight room one day a week after school. The divers also practiced diving techniques with the use of a trampoline. Many divers felt that the trampoline provided a tremendous workout and aided training.
Though the year was not a winning one for the swim team, personal learning instruction and fun were achieved, which accounted for a beneficial season.

GIRLS’ SWIMMINGNew
prospects
The Edina-West boys gymnastic team started the new season out with only five returning gymnasts, of which three were lettermen. Basically, they had to build their team up from scratch.
To compensate for the loss of the experience and valuable seniors, the team acquired some new junior high prospects. Three important newcomers of the varsity team were David Pastre (9), Doug Nordstog (7), and Dale Langefels (7). Remarkably, Lan-gefels lettered within the first few meets of the season. Captain Dave Bolick (12) stated, “Our team has so much potential, especially in the younger gymnasts.”
Although the year was not a highly successful one in terms of school win-loss rankings, the team felt the greatest improvement came in their individual skills. They practiced and worked hard to perfect their skills while disciplining and developing both the body and the mind.
Coach Bob Hoecheral, the fifteen men squad trained out every day after school. They persistently practiced their skills on the rings, high bar, parallel bars, and the vault. Reaping the rewards for his hard work and effort, senior Pat Haley went to state. For others just a nice, big sundae at Bridge-man’s was reward enough.

The hockey team put out their best during 1977-78 season to come up with a commendable record. Daily practices, from November 14 through March 9 required hard work and proved to be successful.
Midway through the season, leading scorers were Gregg Moore (11), John Dulin (12), and John Sackrison (12). The varsity team consisted of 17 players, ten of whom were seniors. Captains Jon Benson (12) and Jim Schell (12) encouraged team togetherness and led the team through the toughest of games.
However, spirit was not limited to the hockey team itself. Spectator attendance reached 4500 at the East-West game, on January 26. The Edina-West Parents’ Club helped cheer on the team by purchasing 600 green and gold pom-pons especially for the fans. This tremendous outpouring of spirit made the 2-0 loss much less disheartening.
Coach Bart Larson (fac.) commented, “The season began with inexperienced players but as it progressed, we built into a tough team.”

If the student body could have sustained the willpower of the wrestling team when it came to losing weight. West might have considered itself to be in top shape. Weighing each wrestler prior to every meet was necessary in insuring fairness between competitors. Bi weekly competition provided incentive for the two or three day fasts which inevitably preceded most meets. Dedication and perseverence were perhaps more evident in wrestling than in any other sport. Sacrifice was the name of the game; giving up mealtime or studytime in order to run laps or sit in a sauna was often essential in losing the final pounds.
The team's talent, both individually and as a whole, attracted many fans to the bleachers. Senior Brian Gere's unique style entertained several crowds. The anticipation of a pm was enough to draw any onlooker off his seat. The focus of individual competition seemed to give a clearer perspective to the word "sport."
Heavyweight Tom Brown (12) often faced wrestlers with a strong weight advantage. Endurance was an impor tant factor; workouts after school paid off in particularly difficult meets. "The best feeling," commented Brown, "was the feeling of getting your hand raised at the end of the match."

Shoot for
success
The most challenging problem facing the basketball team was the lack of height. The team, however, attempted to make up for it by being strong on rebounds, high on jumps, and quick down the court. The Cougars were a well balanced team; the talent was distributed and many players took a shot at the starting line up.
The most memorable game was the upset against Robbinsdale. West defeated the leading team in the division by a close score of 67-64. The team played their best and proved their competitive qualities under pressure.
Co-captains for the team were seniors Spence Werness and Jim Avery. The team's prospects were jolted by the loss of Werness from a foot injury midway through the season.
The varsity team consisted of five seniors, three juniors, and two sophomores. Jay Donlin (10) commented, "It was a real experience playing as a sophomore but unfortunately the season did not meet our expectations.”
"The season," said Phil Kraff (11), "was disappointing at times but the unity kept the team together and losses were considered team losses rather than individual losses.”

earn members met for such group activities as card games, towel snapping, and baby powder fights. (Who said locker rooms were dull?) Girls, as well as guys, had their own place to escape to before bopping those tennis balls around the court. A quiet conversation with a neighboring locker
owner would make any athlete properly prepared for the competition ahead. Even the rough and tough wrestlers looked forward to that peaceful, relaxing moment under an invigorating shower. Such bliss could only be found within the walls of a locker room.
Locker room existence was that of uniqueness. Where else could an exhausted athlete meet with such an aromatic atmosphere. As senior Sue Nydahl commented, "The locker
rooms were in a good location — far away from the rest of the school. That way no one had to smell them!"
The fringe benefits of untaxed property, unlimited number of visitors, and unrestricted obnoxious behavior, were to be seriously appreciated. Certainly, one never tired from the same old scenery. Locker room chatter could easily have been directly connected with Rona Barrett as a multi-million dollar enterprise.

Jump shots, lay ups, exercises and drills were all part of a daily routine that kept the girls' basketball team in top form. Practicing three times a week and participating in games on Tuesdays and Fridays gave the girls a healthy taste of the hectic life. When not physically practicing, the girls would prepare mentally by reviewing the scouting reports of other teams and planning their game strategy.
This year a new face appeared on the coaching side of the court; Bill Welch (fac.) took over the challenge and responsibility. Being a bit more demanding than the previous coach, Welch was a strong asset to the team.
"The girls on the team were really close which helped us out on the court. We started out the season great, winning our first five games, then we ran into some trouble with a lot of injuries and a lack of height. Overall, it was a great season and we hope to improve on our record next year," summarized varsity member Teresa Ryan(11).

Several conference upsets were attributed to the surprising strength of the boys’ swim team. Senior Jeff Sherman and co-captain Rick Gunderson (12) were recognized as outstanding swimmers in their respective events. Junior John Bishop excelled in the 50 and 100 yard freestyle sprints, while Steve Levine (11) strained every muscle to establish his reputation as a butterfly swimmer. Diver Paul Danielson (11) contributed many points to the team scores. These athletes and the others who comprised the swim team stayed afloat throughout a demanding and difficult season.
The addition of a new coach. Miss Chad Bennet, came as quite a shock to the team. Once adjusted, the boys appreciated her coaching ability and enthusiasm. Head coach Fred John and diving coach Sheldon Peterson maintained the notorious discipline that has traditionally characterized the team.
Practices involved an average of 6000 yards of laps to build endurance and stamina. The spirit which evolved kept everyone psyched-up for the weekly meets. The meets had a style of their own with the back of the bus serving as a social corner, otherwise known as the "country club."
"Even when the team lost you could still obtain the chance to win through individual effort," explained junior Pat Quinn. This was the main advantage of the swim team. If success as a team was not complete, the reward of individual accomplishment was reasonable enough to catch a few colds or have frizzy hair.

Injuries seemed to dominate the boys' downhill ski team. However, this did not cramp their style. With new coach Greg Nelson, good weather, snow, and diverse individual talent, the team had depth and confidence. The team secured first place in the Hastings Invitational tournament through the efforts of co-captain Mike High (12) and Ray Berggreen (12) in the giant slalom race. Commented co-captain JC Anderson (12), "The secret of our winning season was in not having a couple of stand-out competitors, but in having everyone in the top ten able to consistently finish with a good time.”
In contrast, the boys' cross-country team excelled in individual strength rather than team depth. Captain Todd Willmert (11) exemplified his talent by taking first place in regional competition and placing second in state competition. The team, though generally inexperienced, performed well by winning third place in regions. Stated Willmert, "It was disappointing we did not take the team to state as we had in past years, but we gained experience by the effort we displayed in regions."
Practices for both teams involved busing to nearby parks, lake reserves, or ski hills. The arduous practices, mental strain, and all around dedication built a firm foundation for the season’s competition.

On the outside, the girls’ downhill ski team may have seemed young; from the inside, the team had eagerness, dedication, agility, and ability. Lacking senior skiers was a unique characteristic of the team. The leadership of co-captains Ann Burman (11) and Kathi Koop (11) guided team members through a draining season.
Skiers Barb Moeller (10), a state competitor, and Ara Burwell (9) seemed to be snowed under in talent. Their efforts contributed to the overall success of the season.
In girls’ cross-country skiing, team members were thankful for the solid performance of seniors Liz O'Brien, Wendy Ryan, and captain Linda Meyer. Coached by Wendy Anderson, the team extended effort and energy in the weekly meets. The amount of inexperienced skiers was a bit of a handicap, but the girls focused on individual accomplishment while building the team for future years.
"The positive attitude of the coach contributed to the success of the season. Although regions was a disappointment, several individuals performed well. The season was commendable as a whole," concluded Meyer.
Though seldomly surrounded by fans along the course, the girls’ ski teams derived self satisfaction from individual success.

Co captain Debbie Kim (11) of the Edina West girls' gymnastics team turned on a Doobie Brothers tape. Practice began just as it had every night after school and Saturdays. Gazing around the gym, a unique type of team unity and cooperation was apparent. Commented senior co captain Lisa Turner, “I especially enjoyed this year's team because of the close ness between fellow members. They were really nice and put forth a lot of effort.”
The team was comprised of many talented gymnasts. Several of the girls had previous experience with private gymnastic clubs. The varsity and junior varsity were juggled between meets which gave most team mem bers the opportunity to compete on the varsity level sometime during the season.
The team achieved good marks in all areas of competition; none of the events proved weak. Lynn Bringgold (9) performed consistently well in each event. Juniors Laura Franz and Lisa Wahl gracefully executed their beam routines with accurate precision. Sue MacGibbon (11) was a strong competitor on the bars and floor exercise. Experienced ninth, tenth, and eleventh graders added depth to the team while establishing an impressive reputation for future years.
Coach Kit Stoutenburgh summarized the '78 season: "Edina-West wasn't aware of how skilled the team was. This team was very talented and fun to watch perform.”

Athletes participated for the thrill of victory, the agony of defeat, and the joy of competition; but behind every athlete there was a coach. Without a coach, many teams would not have had uniforms, practice time, or equipment. Coaches were needed to provide these essentials. "One thing we looked for," said athletic coordinator Sara Lykken, "was if they had good management skills. Running a team, in some ways was like running a business."
Coaches had to arrange practice times, help set up meets, and sometimes find referees and officials. They were required to go to all meetings
held by the Lake Conference concerning their sport and also face the press.
A coach's first responsibility though, was to his team. The coaches put in many hours of hard training in order to see their teams do well. For most coaches, seeing kids improve was the most rewarding aspect. "Coaching was the Cadillac of teaching," commented Molli O'Boyle (fac.), "because the kids wanted to be there, unlike class where some did not care." Soccer coach John Olsen (fac.) stated, "I wanted to coach because I knew how much athletics meant to my life and how much they had taught me."
Students acknowledged that coaches were important to their teams. They felt that the relationship between a coach and athlete should be one of mutual respect. If respect was missing, both coaches and students realized that an athlete would not have been motivated and may even have quit. Although some students thought discipline ought to be the key factor, most agreed that the coach should have patience, understanding, and install leadership and sportsmanship. "After all," said Kathi Koop (11), "many of the qualities you learn in athletics carry on throughout your life."
S3HDPOO• Just for the fun of it
"It was fun to get out there and not have the seriousness of varsity sports," explained senior John Dulin. Intramural sports allowed students to keep in shape while enjoying the competition camaraderie of fellow athletes.
For the first time in Edina-West's intramural league history girls entered the competition, making their debut as Reynold's Roughnecks. They provided constant competition for their male counterparts. However, female competition subsided as the Reverse Turkeys tackled the title of the intramural football champs.
The careful supervision of Jim Garner (fac.) kept the physical contact of the football games to a safe minimum. The ensuing basketball and softball seasons were supervised by Curt Johnson (fac.).
The enlightening experience of intramural sports added a fresh spirit to the athletic program. Every student who was interested, including girls, had the opportunity to form or become a member of a team. The sportsmanship of the participants was unique, "It was a blast to go out and crunch each other, but after the game we always shook hands," summarized Dulin.

Dedicating third hour to the monstrous task of publishing a yearbook, the members of the Windigo staff persevered through deadlines, birthday celebrations, parties, and the gentle words of admonition from the irate teachers next door. Through their abounding energy, which occasionally subsided during trips to Kenny’s, the memories and prize moments of the year were captured in the ’78 edition of Windigo.
Words like. "Windigo Bakery . . . which crumb would you like to talk to?” brought a special, easy going atmosphere to the publications room. Rank and power abated as members of each section strived to complete their obligations for the upcoming deadline.

The omnipresent dread of deadlines hung heavily in the heart of every staff member. Periodic isolation on weekends and after school became the norm in order to finish copies, layouts and photo assignments. Senior Laurie Miller explained the sometimes unrecognized devotion of the Windigo staff: "I did not think people realized how much time we had to take for every detail to make things appealing."
Beyond all the pressures and traumas of putting the book together, the staff realized the value of the friendships that grew. Stated Doyle, "Even at deadlines I tried to remember that there had to be leeway. The people and their feelings were more important than the book."

WINDIGOWest wind
The members of the Zephyrus staff were at the mercy of deadlines. The tri-weekly publication demanded unbelievable time and dedication. During a deadline week, minutes of researching, writing, editing, and typ ing could add up to the incredible sum
of forty hours.
Zephyrus performed two primary services essential to the student body, to inform and to entertain. Staff members sought to enlighten students with creative articles concerning both school and community events. Another function of the newspaper was to publicize upcoming school happenings in order to increase attendance and support of various organizations and teams. Editor-in-chief, Kathy Kardell (12) commented, "Articles were dated so it was hard to find news that was fresh, not stale."
Researching for an article was perhaps one of the most rewarding aspects of being a member of Zephyrus. Stated senior John Williams, "It was interesting to meet people through interviews. I think that was my favorite part."
One hour every day was designated as the Zephyrus hour. Advisor Lois Anderson (fac.) helped to oversee the articles, layouts, and the printing of the newspaper. “She added knowledge and helpful suggestions in the entire process of putting together the newspaper," remarked Ellen Goldberg (11).

A chance was given for student creativity to be displayed and recognized through Calliope, Edina-West’s literary art magazine. The two dollars and fifty cents charged did not cover the total publishing cost, so fund raising activities such as a garage sale, a car wash, and several animal cracker sales financed the publication.
The staff was comprised of sixteen members who judged the submissions and compiled the magazine. Submissions were accepted from December 10th through February 1st on an anonymous basis. The magazine was dependent entirely on student participation. "To try to improve our magazine, we looked to others to develop new and different perspectives in layout, type of print, and correlation between photographs and prose," stated Jacque Johnson (12).
In an effort to reduce the work after school, first hour was designated as the Calliope hour for second semester. The bulk of the work came during the early months of second semester; reading the submissions was time consuming. "We had much to accomplish this year in putting Calliope together. The cooperation and support of the staff helped to achieve our goal of producing a magazine representative of the student body," sum-merized editor Todd Craig (12).S£Ata Calliope meeting.

Say what?
The cheerleaders of 1977-78 were recognized as one of the most precise squads in the history of Edina-West. Their year began with tryouts on May 2 and 4. About thirty girls competed for fifteen openings. Emerging from the tryouts came twelve returning girls and three rookies.
As summer rolled around, the cheerleaders experienced hot and endless practices that were held twice a week, later increasing to one every day. In mid-August they ventured to Genny Nagengast’s cabin where the annual band camp was held. As part of initiation, the new cheerleaders enjoyed dog food mixed with their hamburgers, and at the local Perkins they paraded around in T-shirts and diapers. Aside from the fun, hard and demanding three hour practices were manditory each day. All the strenuous practice was needed to perfect their timing before school started.
Even though the stress of practice was continuous, fun and good times were to be found. They held a progressive dinner, potlucks, and many other parties.
The cheerleaders successfully promoted school spirit throughout the year. They carried on the cheerleading tradition of dribbling and hurling toilet paper through the trees of football and soccer players’ homes. Occasionally, the commons area was decorated with signs and streamers for team members. This gave the student body a feeling of unity which was reflected in the support of athletic activities. The spirit generated within the school was attributed to the hard work and enthusiasm of the 1977-78 cheerleading squad.

The 1977-78 Cougarette life began May 3. 1977. The dance line started the summer out with unbounding enthusiasm, practicing patriotically Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday from 5:30 until 7:30 p.m. Aside from regular practices, •‘special" and "new guys" practices were held. However, as the long, hard practices continued, enthusiasm declined. Toward the end of the summer, spirit was aroused when the Cougs took their yearly trip to band camp, which was held at Gear-
dink's resort in Annandale, Minnesota. Band camp was a very special and memorable experience for all. They practiced six hours daily, then survived special initiations at night.
The summer's hard work was well worth the time and effort extended. This was apparent in the Cougarette's premiere performance at the opening pepfest of the year, in which, "they looked promising." junior Pauline Zar-ling remarked.
Slumber parties, banquets, pot-lucks, and various other activities were all part of an unforgettable year. "We had a lot of dedicated hard workers and we really got along well," commented co-captain Karen McArthur (12).

Strange creatures appearing in exotic outfits ranging from diapers to trash cans proclaiming “pakena, pakena” alarmed many visitors at Edina-West. However, to the accustomed student, A-buf was a manifestation of school spirit and pride.
A-buf originated in 1957 at Edina High School. A New Zealand foreign exchange student brought the unusual tribal chant to Edina which soon became known as the A-Buf call. This rather unique organization remained for just one year, but in 1974 it returned to Edina via West and began a new tradition which is now in its third year.
Some inquisitive students may have asked if there was any purpose to their bizarre performances at athletic events. There really was no defined purpose, except for humor and rousing spirit. “A-buf was a chance to express inner creativity in a way that everyone could enjoy. It was fun to do crazy things,” explained junior member John Neal.
A-buf incorporated several themes into their performances including “Hunt Down the Trojan," “Star Wars,” and “Wizard of Oz." Leader Brent Bechtle (12) refused to admit to practices, “I tried to do as little as possible. We never practiced, we did not believe in it.”
Regardless, A-buf consistently added spirit and amusement to the student body.
Speaking at the pepfest, the invisible man Chris Ross (12) makes an appearance.

Their taste buds rejoiced in ecstasy together as the members of the French club sampled bits of special gourmet delicacies. Though it did not gather often socially, the French club held a strong purpose of educating the students in the ways and culture of France.
Advisor Ann Petri (fac.), expressed concern over what might have been diagnosed as general apathy in the club. However, the interest of those involved made the club worthwhile. Guided by president Linda Recht (12) and an executive committee, the club steered its way through the year.
The tradition of involvement was evidenced in the strong participation of students in the Latin club. Headed by an experienced advisor, Virginia Jensen (fac.), eighty exuberant students collaborated to make a successful year for the club.
Taxes collected from first year students, more commonly known as slaves, helped to support numerous escapades. Italian dinners were plentiful and because of the five visiting Italian students, the meals had a special flavor. Sharing in the cultures of other countries, members of the Latin club joined other clubs in the annual all language Christmas party. Finally, long hours of planning led to an elaborate and fun filled Latin Week. Commented senior Stefano Gracis, "I've found that the Latin club was truly fabulous and fun. There was only one thing to say S.P.Q.A. — they were crazy, these Americans."
The efforts of both clubs enabled language students to venture out of the classroom and into the world and culture of their respective languages.

About fifteen fraus and frauleins gathered together to form Edina-West's German club. Advisor George Reimer (fac.), commented. “The club helped students organize fun-filled cultural events celebrated in German speaking countries.”
Making a float for the Homecoming
parade was one of the fun activities performed by the club. Even better was the fact that the float tied for first place. Also on the agenda was an Oktoberfest, a yearly German celebration, and an all language Christmas party which was the main event of the year. This party allowed students to learn the German way of celebrating Christmas. The members participated by wearing German clothes, eating German food, and singing German carols.
The Spanish club consisted of
twelve boys and girls under the direction of Lynn Hansen (fac.). The increased enrollment over the previous years was an encouraging sign. The club sampled tacos, tortillas, and enchiladas at Chi Chi’s restaurant on the 494 strip. Making pirtatas for the Christmas party and listening to guest speakers from other countries were part of the fun and educational experiences. Hansen stated, “Spanish club members were working to increase involvement. The group provided excellent opportunities for Spanish learning outside of the classroom."

A new life
The International club, advised by Helen Pellowe (fac.), allowed an enthusiastic group of students to meet and learn about the foreign students who spent a year at Edina-West. Sharing the lives of the exchange students gave the club participants a greater insight to the various cultures they represented.
Foreign exchange students Marion Peterka (12) and Heide Witthoeft (11), both of Germany, agreed that Edina-West students had more freedom in choosing the types of classes they wished to take. Cathy Moreto (12), of the Philippines, pinpointed the difference between her school at home and West, "The pressure on students to learn was substantilly less for Edina students." Senior Patricia Pol stated, "Generally in Holland, students went to certain schools designated by their abilities." This was a significant difference she found when comparing schools.
"One of the year's highlights," said sophomore Paula Eisele, "was the International weekend." Through this event, foreign exchange students living around the Minneapolis area gathered for a weekend of festivities. In this way exchange students shared their experiences, both the ups and the downs. Furthermore, members of the International club were able to observe the cultures of sundry other countries which were represented.
To sum it all up, president Sue Conway (11) replied without hesitation, "The purpose of the club was to have fun."

If Shakespeare were around today, he would be astonished at the remark able actors sprouting from Edina-West High School. Thespians was an honorary club for students involved in school plays. Points, based on dedication, acting ability, and the size of a role, were earned by each cast member throughout every play. Obtaining thirteen points meant membership in the club.
The Thespians accomplished a variety of activities during the year. Attending many plays, including Dudley Riggs, throwing pies at the Homecoming King and Queen, and a banquet at the end of the year were a few of the many escapades enjoyed by the members.
Larry Stotts (fac.), the group's advisor, made a point of not letting the Thespians turn into a clique. He projected as little publicity as possible for the club so other students would not group them all together. The majority of the cast in each play consisted of students who were not Thespians.
Jaime Rodriquez (11), a Thespian member with the highest accumulation of points, responded enthusiastically, "The experience of acting taught me how to better deal with the characters on stage and my environment in real life.”

Checks, checks, and more checks. Right and left thirty-five dollars were being exchanged for a curious small piece of blue plastic. This little item, though seemingly inconsequential, became indispensable to the students of both Edina-West and East. More commonly regarded as an activity card, it provided for free admittance to any home athletic event and sundry other school functions.
The money collected from the cards went to the general fund which financed extracurricular activities.
Though its benefits were substantial, its purpose, which was required of any student participating in one or more school activity, was received with mixed emotion. "I thought it was a reasonable way to raise the money,” commented Jim Avery (12). Sophomore Karen Maley responded, “It had a lot of advantages, but I thought it was unfair that someone who walked across the stage during a performance had to pay thirty-five dollars.”
Under study by the Minnesota Legislature, the activity fee has been declared unlawful. The initial plan of a thirty-five dollar fee was maintained through the 1977-78 school year. Next year, no such plan will be implemented.

Just talkin’
When it came to speech, Edina-West did all the talking. The debate and declamation teams held good records. Chris Ross (12) explained the difference between debate and declamation: "Debate was arguing on a specific issue in direct competition with other people while declamation was being scored on the style of speech you chose and how well you did it."
Each year a national board selected an issue on which every high school in the nation debated. The issue for the 77-78 year was whether or not medical services should be guaranteed to all citizens. The debaters spent many
hours researching the pros and cons, and other related subjects. They debated in meets all over the state and were known as one of the toughest teams.
Declamation fell in the Spring, allowing members to participate in both forms of speech competition. Unlike debate, the speakers were given freedom in deciding the issues they wished to present. They were judged according to categories and their performance. Categories such as extemporaneous speaking, reading, humorous storytelling and others were included.
Because of the long hours, hard work, and practice put in by these students Edina-West was well represented in the speech departments.

UOIl'JWflD3a 3iV((l3aUnited yet divided
The solidarity of the student council was derived from the joint efforts of the activities, charities and civic councils. Guided by the overall leadership of President Whit Pauly (12), each council successfully planned and executed numerous activities which enlivened school life.
The activities council was primarily concerned with arranging dances. Opening with a booming Homecoming set a good tempo for the dances which followed, such as Sadie Hawkins and Sweetheart.
Charities council participated in the "Run For Your Life,’’ and a canned food drive. On October 30, all students were invited to join the student council at the Tillman Home for retarded children to share in a Halloween party.
Breaking the monotony of the day to day school life required considerable energy which the civics council was eager to expend. Such activities as printing and distributing an activity schedule helped to relieve the pressures of school work by channeling student energy into extracurricular activities and school support of athletic competition.
The main goal for the '77 ’78 student council was "student involvement." Whit Pauly attributed much of the involvement in council activities to the increased spirit within the school. All three councils felt that participation was the key to the success of their year.

Link by link
The chain of command within the Edina school system was manifested to the student body through the vital link of the student school board. This board proposed to aid the senior school board in their decisions which most directly affected student life. Elected to office by their classmates, the board consisted of student representatives from both Edina-West and East.
On the first and third Monday of every month, the student school board convened to discuss issues such as the mission plan (district priorities), the energy program, and the extracurricular fee. At separate meetings, the student representatives presented to the senior school board those problems which they felt needed immediate consideration. Furthermore, the board members furnished possible solutions which they had synthesized from the suggestions offered by concerned students.
When asked about the need for a student school board, Pamela Gillman (11) replied, "It formed the easiest link of communication between the students and the senior board.” Though results were not often readily apparent, the efforts of those involved were appreciated by all.

Talk
Compliments of SWATS, spirit poured out with a magnitude of intensity. SWATS, which stood for Senior Women Add Team Spirit, was enacted by a group of concerned seniors who felt the need for stronger enthusiasm and support of school athletic functions.
"SWATS was organized in place of Senior Women’s Varsity. We created a group with a better image and more team support," explained Amy Coon-rod (12).
Walking aimlessly around school, students may have noticed SWATS making and posting signs at pepfests, in locker rooms, and in the halls. Senior women stirred emotion through their efforts. Pepfests exploded in thunderous applause and spontaneous cheer. Their official army hats added a dimension of authority to the group.
• I hope it becomes a tradition," stated Jeff Cabalka (12). "It did so much for the school."

SIMSA look ahead
•Any of the work programs were possibly the greatest courses offered at West. Working enabled me to develop a greater sense of responsibility." Senior Mary Rickord's statement indicated the value of the extensive work program opportunities. Office education and distributive education were two of the many alternates to classroom learning at Edina-West.
Typing, shorthand, and stenography were examples of the work per-
formed by office education participants. This optional training program was derived for seniors who were interested in the secretarial field.
Second hour each day allowed O.E. students to develop their clerical skills. One credit was received for this morning class. Two credits were alloted per semester for involvement in various part-time jobs.
Distributive education, more commonly known as D.E. taught several seniors the basis of marketing and distribution during a special class period. Then, participants had the opportunity to apply this knowledge to everyday part-time employment. The selection of |obs included retail selling, distribution warehousing, wait-
ressmg and several others. Students attended three to four class periods per day for which they received regular credit. The rest of the day was spent working at their chosen occupation which yielded two other credits.
The goal of these programs was to allow students to explore their many interests and ideas of possible careers. Exposure to what may become a lifetime dedication helped students to clarify how they wanted to invest the coming years. Also, the benefit of work experience was counted by many participants to be the most worthwhile aspect of the programs. Both O.E. and D.E. were deemed successful by all those involved.

171Hands down
Skipping school? Well, not exactly. Hard work transpired from fifty-seven Edina-West students this year in the Vocational Technical Education Program. Each day, after attending the first three hours of class, participants headed out to the suburban Hennepin County Vo-Tech school in Eden Prairie. They arrived back at school at 2:00 in order to catch the bus home. The Edina-West program, open to eleventh and twelfth graders, provided three credits per semester which was equivalent to a semester of classes at school.
Rather than educating solely the mind, Vo-Tech aimed to educate the hands through the development of practical skills. The most popular classes were auto mechanics, auto body repair, child development, commercial flower productions, and re creation vehicle mechanics. Vo-Tech helped prepare students for future jobs in the field of their choice. The advisor, Mr. Kinion(fac.), stated that it has been a helpful program for many of the students involved.

For many seniors, the merit of a four year college education did not compare to the practicality of work experience and on the job training. The Trade and Industry program provided an alternate to classroom studies by allowing its participants to explore several fields of interest for future employment.
A special morning class enabled students to learn about their respective jobs. Advisor Dick Reichow(fac.) helped his participants to secure jobs in the community. Employment ranged from jobs at Marc's Big Boy and Shell gas station to work in health services as a nurses' aide. Experiencing a "real life" job helped students to gain a clearer focus of various occupations.
Trade and Industry proved to be a prolific alternative to the common classroom life.

VO-TeCH T l174Facing the downs while still managing to look up was a challenge for most. Disappointments could accumulate if the brighter moments were not allowed to shine. Athletic defeats, bad weather, term papers, final exams, a bad grade, and losing a place in soccer and football state playoffs made the year memorable, although such memories might be more easily forgotten.
Dedicating one's self to a sport, a musical production, a special interest or one's school work demanded sacrifice and perpetual enthusiasm. Edina-West risked pride, but gained selfesteem in putting the best foot forward.
The unexpected loss to Richfield was visible in the forlorn countenance of the football team, yet the respect they earned brought a cheerful grin to even the most forsaken hearts. Losing a spot in state playoffs was disappointing to the soccer and football teams, but having been ranked number one, even for just a while, was reason enough for anyone to smile.
Miserable weather never seemed to
take its toll. Amidst rain, snow, and sub-zero temperatures during Home coming week, a beam of sunshine inevitably materialized from the warmth of one radiant face.
Frustration marked the stage; hours of rehearsal were sometimes rewarded with empty seats on per formance nights. The optimism of every choir, band or cast yielded the most spectacular production imagina ble. Hearty congratulations and warm applause led to a feeling of satisfac tion which could not be expressed even with the widest grin.
Tests, finals, study guides, book reports, lab reports, projects, and everyday homework weighed down students with an almost unbearable load. The promise of an approaching weekend drew an occasional smile, but more often, a long and heavy sigh of relief.
The problems faced seemed irre solvable; the battles, unconquerable; the loss of pride, irredeemable, and the thirst for understanding and com passion, unquenchable. Yet through it all, the world still found time to smile.

176Great
expectations
Opening the year with the smash hit "Fiddler on the Roof,” the concert choir quickly alerted the school and the community of their talent and potential. Five sold out performances gave the choir an added confidence. Combining efforts with other choirs.
the concert choir contributed challenging and moving selections to the Holiday Vocal Concert. Masterworks marked the peak of the choir's year. Finally, Current Jam displayed the creativity and solo talent of many choir members.
Fifth hour rehearsals daily encompassed frustration, yet self-satisfaction was always to be found, especially around concert time. Discipline was a problem at times because, for most people, fifth hour was the only nona-
cademic hour of the day. Explained junior Sue Erlandson, "It wasn't like bending over a desk and doing your math or chemistry."
The determination of director Bob Peterson was what pulled the group together. The feeling of unity was essential in producing a fine blend of voices. "Fiddler" opened the year with excitement and anticipation; Current Jam closed the year with lasting friendships and memories.

CONCCRT CHOIRChorale:
western
style
The Edina-West vocal chorale, consisting of roughly fifty members, remained a strong facet of the music department. Throughout the year, the girls worked diligently to uphold their image as an independently unique
choir. Blending the high quality of the sopranos with the rich tone of the altos proved to be a successful sound for the choir. "Chorale was designed especially for the performance of three part treble voices (Soprano I, Soprano II, and Alto),” explained Bob Peterson, the choir director.
As a display of this year's unusually fine musical talent, chorale performed in several concerts. These included the Holiday concert, Masterworks, and the Spring concert, of which chorale was the feature choir. The selections sung by girls provided enough of a
variety in musical composition to be challenging yet motivating.
When chorale was not busy with rehearsals or performances, they were scheduling social events which brought a sense of unity to the group. As well as post-concert gatherings, chorale members planned pot-luck dinners and picnics. "We had a lot of fun," reminisced soprano Kathy Haglund(12).
With the many talented treble voices heard in this year's chorale, it is apparent that next year's group has a hard act to follow.

178A better
blend
The sight of students wandering the school in sixteenth century costumes may have turned a few heads, but no one seemed to ask questions. It was the chamber singers heading for another engagement. The costumes worn by the group enhanced the Renaissance music they performed “Walking in tights wasn't the greatest," said John Ratelle (11), "but the rest was fun.”
In selecting the sixteen students who comprised the chamber singers, director Bob Peterson (fac.) sought not necessarily the best solo voices, but those that would blend well.
Sight reading was an important factor as the singers were responsible to learn their music quickly. "Chamber singers wasn’t just a twice-a-week thing,” commented Brenda Peskin (11). "We had to learn our music individually in order to make music as a group."
The members' long hours and hard work paid off as they produced a quality Renaissance sound. Their performances included concerts for the school, the community, and the British Literature classes.

The varsity choir started out 1977 right in tune. Four different concerts, a pot luck, a hayride, and several parties were all incorporated in the agenda. Not only did these activities train the voice, but they allowed the members to become closer as a group.
The year began with the Campus Fall concert, progressed to the Holiday Vocal concert, the Masterworks concert, and finally, the Happening concert in May. The Happenin’s concert featured the varsity choir while the other concerts involved all four Edina-West choirs.
President of the choir was Mark Whittemore (12) and director was Diana Leland (fac.). The choir, hitting a top membership of 90 singers, was described positively by Leland, "Out of the three years of varsity choir's existence, this particular choir performed the most challenging music yet."

With accord
The basketball and soccer seasons would have been incomplete without the loyal support of the Cougar band. The spirit and enthusiasm it added to the games motivated both the fans and the players. Rebounding from the walls of the gym, the music of the band added a vivacious note to early morning and late afternoon pepfests.
Basically, Cougar band was a learning band. It served as a foundation for varsity and concert band which fostered a more formal atmosphere. Through Cougar band, students learned to sight read, appreciate various forms and styles of music, and explore other fundamentals of music.
Cougar band also acted as a channel for the emerging musical students of the Lower Division. The fun and excitement of the group gave '‘bandies” their final fill of amusement as they prepared themselves for the stronger discipline of the higher bands.
Concerts gave the Cougar band further exposure to the public. Even so, their contributions of time and effort to various athletic functions were recognized by the student body as a tremendous asset to Edina-West.

Just a note
Sweet music to the ear was plentiful at every football and hockey game because of the varsity band. Through the cold and wind, the band was out on the football field playing their hearts out. And if that was not enough, their two concerts. Winter and Flashbacks, manifested their strong talent.
It all started with the initiation of the members, otherwise known as the lowly greenhorns. After a month of teasing and kidding, the rookies were given thorough treatment during a Friday night initiation ceremony.
Other festivities included hockey
and football games against the concert band and a tour in the Spring. Money for the tour was raised by the band members. Various jobs as inventory workers at Donaldson’s and working at Ormon Research Inc. to test new products brought about top dollar profits. Martin Blocki (12), president, and Dave Neilsen (12), vice president, deserved the credit for arranging these money raising enterprises.
Under the direction of J. Neilsen (fac.), this was one of the band's more harmonious years. Dave Seaberg (12) commented, “Varsity band was a fantastic experience for me. In staying with it over the years, I developed special friendships which made it more than just a band.”

aut g aiimmNoting the difference
Bright music resounded from the Leo J. Fick auditorium throughout the school year in several exciting concert performances. From whom did this rousing music originate? It came from the hearts, souls, and instruments of the concert band members.
Conducted by faculty member Ed Melichar, the band staged three major concerts. The first was the notable winter concert which warmed up the band for the coming extravaganza. Pops West. Performing on February 16, 18. 23, 24, and 25, the concert band stunned the school with a real bullet when they presented numerous selections from the musical "Annie
Get Your Gun," as a part of Pops. As a special highlight of the concert, the nimble fingers of featured soloist Kathy Smyth (12) added a stroke of musical genius to the song “Rhapsody in Blue." Lastly, to round out the year, the band offered a Spring concert which was light in flavor.
As an incentive to lose weight prior to Pops, the band established Edwin’s Weigh-away. Each '•bandie" who signed up would record his loss or gain on the Monday and Friday of each week. This club worked so well that some non band members joined in for fun.
Weight was lost, spirit was gained. Through parties, progressive dinners, and performances, the band exemplified the dedication and enthusiasm which upheld their long standing tradition of excellence.

A touch of class
Beethoven never realized the competition he faced at Edina-West . . . but then again, neither did Bernstein. To some students, ignorance was bliss, but to members of the orchestra, appreciation of music added a touch of class to their curriculum.
The student body had enough string instruments to make up a twenty-eight piece orchestra which was accompanied by members of the band. These students worked hard under the direction of Ed Melichar (fac.) to prepare for their three concerts: Cafe, Winter, and Spring. The Cafe Concert was held in December; the orchestra presented light music, performed skits, and played several motion picture themes. Both winter and spring concerts focused on pieces appropriate to the season and offered a cross section of classical works. Although the orchestra was school sponsored, attendance was sometimes low at concerts. "People have not been exposed to classical music, so they do not know what to expect," said Alicia Ultan(12).
Aside from the usual amount of practice that went with any performance, the orchestra engaged in other activities. Casual parties after concerts promoted a stronger unity for the group. Raising money by selling candy and raffle tickets helped support the spring tour which was one of the highlights of the year.
The typical stereotype of classical music was disproved by the creativity and imagination of the participants in orchestra. "I think that my experience in orchestra urged me to continue in my musical interests,” commented Cathy Poppelaars (12).

Reading bulletins and memos, conferences with parents, miscellaneous phone calls, schedule changes, and dealing with absences and tardinesses were all part of an unbelievably busy, hectic day in the life of an administrator or counselor.
Counselors felt that the role they played in the administration network was a front line contact role with students, parents, and teachers. Counselors were the first people to be involved when students were in trouble. All counselors dealt with students on a personal level. They also influenced rules, enforcement, and policies of student life. When asked how many hours per day his job required
counselor Wayne Kinion replied, ••Approximately thirty hours.”
The new dean of students, George Skluzacek, noticed a change in student life and school atmosphere. “The school has improved in respecting rules about study hall and snack break.” The dean's effectiveness was reflected in his attitude towards his job. ”The kids are friendly, fun-loving, and good natured. I enjoy a kid who enjoys himself.”
Through the contributions of these faculty members, students were able to concentrate on studies while the mechanics of the administration ran smoothly.

191Behind the Scenes
According to popular myth, school is made up of teachers and students . . . not so. There were very many other people involved who composed the total picture of Edina-West.
With the administration busy at work, the secretaries kept moving at a steady pace. Secretarial duties ranged from collecting activity fees to scheduling buses and every job in between. Many found their work enjoyable because it gave them a close look at the school and its students.
The librarian, Joyce Cavanaugh, and her aides, Jane Gaasedelen and Thelma Whitton. helped students find books and tried to keep the atmosphere conducive to studying, which was most often a challenge. When asked what she found most rewarding in her work, Gaasedelen said, "The end of the day!” Furthermore, the librarians typed up book lists and
ordered new books to suit the students' needs.
The function of the Parents Club was to act as a bridge between the school administration and the parents. Parents of students at Edina-West were asked to serve on the board which met once a month to share concerns about the priorities of the school. With this goal in mind, events such as the P.T.A. open house were organized. A member of the Parents’ Club, Norm Carpenter, stated, "It is important to have an organization that is particularly concerned with the communication between the administration and the parents."
The energy and leadership of these various adults contributed to the cooperative and productive atmosphere of the school. Commented Lori Feese (11), "They were hard workers and were always willing to help."

S3DMH35 1V1I33 15When it came right down to it, reading was the main prerequisite for college. Reading laid the foundation for taking tests, daily papers, term papers, and various other classroom studies. Poor reading skills were connected with low grades and slow learning. For this reason, developing one's reading potential to the fullest capacity was a crucial step toward college preparation. Many courses offered at Edina-West stressed reading development; they were practically a necessity for successful college years.

Though many of the word problems in high school geometry, algebra and calculus seemed obscure, and may have been even irrelevant, many students looking to a future of engineering or some related field, came to the sudden realization that these were the problems they would deal with on a day to day basis. Both the math and science departments challenged these students as they prepared them for college through arithmetic skills.
Algebra I, geometry, and Algebra II were the standard basics which led many students to College Algebra and Trigonometry. "They were respected courses," commented junior Kip Wahlquist. He continued, "I thought they had a lot of meaning in everyday life.” For the curious but less intense math student. Consumer Math or Probability and Statistics gave the needed background for later college courses. For the extremely dedicated student, enriched physics, calculus, and Advanced Placement Calculus pursued a special interest in arithmetic.
Through chemistry and physics, students were able to explore the scientific aspects of arithmetic. The interest in math as it related to the sciences was overwhelming. This was manifested in the strong enrollment in the science classes.
Looking ahead made students more aware of the courses they would require for college and specific fields. Preparation through arithmetic skills was a strong choice for a high percentage of students.

Many students found the conventional academic curriculum too limited and restricted for each individual's interests. Through the electives offered, these students developed their talents as they prepared for vocational careers.
Business education and office procedure courses such as shorthand, bookkeeping, notetaking, and typing readied students for secretarial and accounting fields. Many students found these courses useful because the skills they learned could be applied in their school work. Ginny Nagengast (11), a student taking bookkeeping, stated, "It was a new experience that I could use every day and a good time, too. The teacher was
really good, which made the course interesting and fun."
Other students found their talents lying in fields such as interior decorating, computer technology, electronics, and graphic arts. Jeff Lewis (fac.) explained his teaching goals for graphic arts, "I thought it was important that my students learned about how much work went into the printed page." Most teachers felt that the students could benefit from the courses offered because many of the subjects had directly related careers.

To spice up their lives, many students took Food Specialties which gave a taste of many extravagant and gourmet meals. Clothing was also a popular course giving students an opportunity to learn sewing techniques. Garments made in class ranged

i3iWlD C13.Lkl3UIO ..DUI lllThe individuality of the student body was evident in the broad interests and studies of Edina West students. The traditional curriculum of math, science, social studies, and English took a step aside as electives became most prevalent in many students' schedules. Courses in art. vocal music, band, acting, psychology, and foreign language study gave most students a little more breathing room.
Music classes, both vocal and instrumental, gave students the
option of a sixth credited course rather than study hall. Foreign languages and psychology allowed students to explore new fields and develop a background for later college study. Art opened various channels of expression for the more creative individual. Likewise, acting provided opportunities for expression through the body while fulfilling a communications requirement for some participants.
The “uniqueness” of many individ-
uals was exposed through many of these sundry electives. “That was what I really liked about the classes . . . people really got into their music, both in band and choir," commented senior Nancy Vidmar.
The important role that these courses played in the educational development of students readily commended their value and success by rounding out personalities.

Minnesota state law required all high school graduates to have successfully completed certain subjects. Explaining why the school district did not add more classes to the state requirements, George Furney, assistant to the principal for instructions, stated. "The school tried to provide a mini-
mum number of opportunities to achieve.' Stressing this point, the district recognized that within the requirements there needed to be electives. Thus, the language arts department, the only area that required three full years of study, offered twenty-five course selections.
Students themselves realized the reasons for certain class requirements. Jacki.e Burger(12) commented, "Composition was very
worthwhile because the skills you learned are used in college and the rest of one's life." Relating the importance of history and social studies.

RGQUIRGD CLJV GSWhat’s
developing?
Being a Windigo photographer definitely developed differently than it did for any other member of the school. When trying to capture one year in pictures, photogs, as they were lovingly referred to, had the monumental task of finding just that “right moment” to click their pics.
Although being a photographer seemed like a rather easy job, it involved more than just taking the pictures. For every school function there had to be a photographer, which meant some photographer had to find a date to the Homecoming dance only to spend the entire evening with his camera. Photographers had to be a pan of everything for just a while in order to find the right angle on things. Some were willingly drafted to cheerleading potlucks while others were dragged to what seemed like another night of football shots.
Taking the pictures was only one part of the job. The photographers will look back fondly to late night darkroom gatherings and being assigned to shoot pictures in the faculty bathrooms, locker rooms, Cougarette slumber parties . . .
But because of their efforts, Windigo was able to bring forth Edina-West as it really was, for when people look back to 1978, what they tried to capture in the present will be good memories of the past.

Greg Good: for really living up to his name. Sally Poehler: for being friendly, jolly, happy, and for never getting our names quite right. Annemarie Webster: for not only being one of the guys, but being "the Boss.” Sue Hanson: for brightening up "dungeon” life. Cindy Carpenter: for making fifth hour more exciting with her many love life stories. Chris Palmer: for many great pictures and still managing to raise the curve on sosh tests.
