All these things are a part of Grosse Pointe High School. This year View Pointe has endeavored through pictures and text to recall the past years ' highlights, and present as many students and faculty members as possible. We hope, as students, you will be proud of View Pointe and will as our theme states Look beneath the surface. We have tried to depict the true and intimate high school picture, and to serve both the school and the community of which it is a part. 1961-1962 will hold many memories for Grosse Pointe High students. For the View Pointe staff it has been a hectic year; rushing to meet deadlines, writing copy and taking pictures. With this all behind them, the staff is from left to right: Jim Todd, Jon Gandelot, Bill Babbage, Fred Steinheiser, Ned Bunn, John Randall, Pat Hawkins-editor, Dorothy Seegers, Duane Engstrom, Sherry Bockstanz, Lassie Covault, Dana Harlan, Miss Griffiths-advisor and Rial Hamann.

Confirmation of this report has been found in the out- of-school activities which reveal per- sonality traits not always apparent in the classroom. For one, fishing may an- swer the need for relaxation. Others try editing photographs, sailing, garden- ing, dancing, camping, sports announc- ing, bowling, and traveling. View Pointe brings photographic evidence of these varied interests, evidence of the com- plexity in the pedagogic personality. Dr. J. W. Bushong, superintendent of Grosse Pointe Schools, on his trip to Russia discussed foreign language instruction with an English teacher in Pushkin Board- ing School, Pushkin, U.S.S.R. Mr. Jerry Gerich, principal of Grosse Pointe High, meticulously cares for his lawn in the same manner he settles problems at school. Mr. Donald Campbell, assistant prin- cipal enjoys dancing with Mrs. Harry Lipski at the senior night event. Mr. Howard Case, dean of boys, spends his summers at his Douglas Lake cottage in Northern Michigan. Mr. Robert Hanson, director of guidance, prepares for a camping trip with his family. Mrs. Fred Flam, dean of girls, has fond memories of her past sum- mer ' s vacation in the Scandinavian countries. Mr. Kenneth Cook, science department head, is an organist at Grosse Pointe Methodist Church. He also acts as president of the Grosse Pointe Teachers ' Association. As head of the music department, Mr. John Finch with counselor, Mr. Larry Westerville, show evidence of their favorite pastime. Cleat the sheet! Hoist the main! These are familiar cries to Miss Frances French, head of the business education department, as she sails with the wind on a starboard tack. Miss Ester Porter, head of the lan- guage department, shares her travel films and slides with her classes and friends. History ' s on the move and so is Miss Leona Weir, social studies depart- ment head, as she improves her bowling stride. Arranging the conference room in the new mathematics quarters was a major project for the department head. Miss Bertha Schermer. Sports announcing for all local basketball games is a second interest for Dr. Stanley Cook, head of the English department. Mr. Ray Watling, coordinator of drivers ' training, edits films and slides in his home workshop. AfiS t l? t.l ■ .-.

The Challenge of SCIENCE A Year of Progress — A Year of Promise The year 1961-62 is a year which will be re- membered for many reasons. Science made his- tory and headlines by sending a man up into space. New Horizons have been opened to the generation of today. We are faced with a challenge we have never had before. What the scientists have accomplished has merely scratched the surface. It is up to us, the present generation, to meet the challenge and to look beneath the surface, to open up new horizons and pave the way for further progress. The Grosse Pointe High School science de- partment far surpassed that of many others. It has the equipment and the instructors. Students who participate have the desire to improve, experiment and try to make the world a better place in which to live. Career possibilities in science are endless. Grosse Pointe High School is prepared to meet this challenge. Now according to the book . . . Dale Novak acts as supervisor, natu- rally, while the girls, Bev Robinson and Jackie Lang do the work of dis- secting a frog in biology. 10 With careful analysis and precise measurement, Grosse Pointe chemistry students learn the composition of scientific principles. Steve Landers, Jim Standish, Greg Reynolds and Jim Large learn the skills of experimentation. (S - Chemistry isn ' t just all mixing of chemicals as Charley Toepel finds out. Algebra and basic math are needed to solve difficult chemical equations. The many intricasies of science pre- vail to their fullest extent. Bob Hud- son, Al Hyer, and Gregor McGregor use the optical lever in calculating Young ' s Modulus. If we pull on the chalk, the pulleys will raise the weight up to here, Joe Snyder seems to be telling Mark Marsh. ' ' ■. «  Overpass + 3rd Floor = Math. Dept. A new and useful addition to Grosse Pointe High School was completed in early December. A third floor on the Industrial Arts Building devoted en- tirely to the Mathematics Department, and an overpass to the main building to make it more accessible were constructed during the summer and early part of the fall semester. This addition unifies the once diversified Math Depart- ment and combines seven classrooms with a seminar and counseling room to afford students with a maximum of teacher help. The new rooms facilitate calculus and analytic geometry courses, while the seminar room is open to all students desiring to expand their knowledge of mathematics in general. A large inventory of technical books is available, offering new techniques and project ideas. Although quite a trek for some students to reach in five minutes, the new addition finally provides adequate space for a department as impor- tant as the subject it teaches. i « i i ii m iii  M .

This is the first year such a subject has been taught, and judging by the student interest, other similar programs will soon follow. With the new addition to the Industrial Arts building, the Math Department now has its own conference room and centrally located facilities. In the teacher ' s lounge Mr. Yerkes, Mr. Houtman, and Mr. Riggleman examine the various models they can use in class dis- cussions. Student participation is an important part of any math course, and here a student in Mr. Yerkes Plane Geometry class illustrates just how he worked out one of the homework problems. 13 ENGLISH: The Science of Communications Grosse Pointe has been extremely fortunate in having one of the finest school papers in the country. Many national honors have been bestowed on our reporters including the Medalist, the All American, and the George H. Gallup awards. To carry on this fine tra- dition, some of the journalism students are seen preparing a Tower issue. Paper, ink, words, and symbols are the tools of communication. In a country that uses more magazines, newspapers, and pro- duces more T.V. commercials than any other in the world, the writing and speak- ing of the English language is not only big business, but an art. The American com- munication system is in constant need of writers, editors, advertising copy special- ists, and a public that comprehends what is happening around them. Directing students toward opportunities in the many fields of communications are the activities of the English department. The English classes study the various liter- ary forms. Journalism is concerned with the reporting and publishing of current events. The oral presentation of material is taught in the Speech classes. As a nation of world power, we cannot underestimate the importance of being able to understand people. In order to write successfully, we must gain a correct manner of speech and self confidence. The instructors, Mrs. Bertovich and Mr. Nelson, are thoroughly competent of performing this task. Carl Haller uses these new skills in trying to sell merchandise to Chuck Zentgraf. The competitive spirit that exists in Grosse Pointe ' s sports and academics has helped the Forensics Club achieve city and state recognition. Our debaters have placed second in the League standing and hope to argue their way to first place in the District Tourna- ment. One skill in which high school stu- dents must show proficiency is ex- pressing themselves in compositions. Creative writing in the forms of poems, essays, impromptu themes and term papers help to develop this ability. Grammatical correctness, sentence structure, spelling, and original ideas expressed in effective style combine to make a fine theme. Some writers have participated and won recognition in the National Scholastic Writing Contest. Miss Mutton ' s honors English 11 class has tried a new method of instruction whereby students assist the instruc- tor in lecturing to the class. Student and faculty reactions seem to favor this form of co-operative learning. Villi ■ mm 11 1  II !■ IV I Villi I 1 l« • The twelve humanities films are used each year to further the appreciation of some of the world ' s greatest literary works. Ballads are one of our best methods of self expression. We have found that by analyzing these songs the thoughts, loves and methods of working are brought to surface. Cathie Chase, Sue Hanna, Dick Breidenbach, Phil Gibbs and Sue Feikens entertain an English class with one of their renditions. 15 Languages Aid Understanding From left to right Diane Saglimbene, Dennis Grafflin, Vickie Heftier, and David Rosen illustrate the adaptability of the Russian language by playing Russian scrabble. These fourth year students converse fluently in French while Mrs. GiUespie serves them tea. They are from left to right: Pat LaBlanc, Charlene Bopp, Carol DettlofT, and Anne Gamer. 16 A typical scene in a foreign language class shows that the subject has much to offer in cultural knowledge. Latin students Tom Spiewak, Diane Hassig, Carol Kraemer, and Mike Irvine are examining a map to locate a city mentioned in one of their assignments. Walk together, talk together, all ye people of the earth. Then and only then shall ye have peace. Language plays a very important part in our lives today. In order to be able to understand the many people in the world, we must be able to speak their language. Grosse Pointe High School offers students the opportunity to become fluent speakers in French, Latin, Spanish, German, and Russian. Feliz Navidad o Feliz Cumpleanos . . . Both at Christ- mas time and during birthdays the pifiata is a familiar sight to Spanish children. Above, a group of Mrs. Brad- field ' s first year Spanish students are admiring a toro pifiata filled with confections to eat. The German Club celebrated Fasching, a pre-lenten festivity, this year at the home of Sharon Guensche. A prince always reigns during these costumed parties. Prince Tom Honderich is knighted by King H ans Bogner. 17 A variety of courses comes under the heading of industrial arts. Among those included are automotives, metal and woodwork. Each one of these classes enables the student to create and develop his own individual ideas. It not only helps him appreciate fine craftsmanship, but it can also help him establish a very worthwhile and perhaps a lifelong hobby or vocation.

Upper right: Dick Beach, Don Biddlingmeier, and Mr. David Basehore, auto- motives instructor. Teaching students to become safe drivers is one of the main purposes of driver education. Stress is placed on proper attitude, courtesy, and respect for other drivers. The Quonset Hut, equipped with a testing laboratory for reaction and ability tests, is now able to accommodate many students who previously had to be re- fused training because of limited space. Featured in the above picture ai ' e: left to right; Diane Malchie, Patricia Heftier, and Sandra Chapel taking ability tests. The classes in Cooperative Retailing are mainly a work experience program dealing with the distribution of merchandise or a serv- ice. The students take three solids in the morn- ing, and work in the afternoon. They must work at least fifteen hours a week to receive credit from the State Department in Lansing. This course serves mainly to bridge the gap between school life and the business world. Featured above left to right: Karen Savory, Janel Windfield and Carole Gauss.

The evaluation of each individual ' s work ends the semester for the classes in clothing. The girls are required to make at least four garments a year, and they have a wide range from which to choose. Studying the basics in furnishing and carpeting homes takes up one semester in Homemaking III and IV. The classes visit various homes in the area as a part of this course.

History History is a study of the im- portant events which have hap- pened in the world and the cy- cles in which these occurances travel. Through the use of term papers, team teaching, and bul- letin board projects, the high school ' s history department sup- plements the material found in the text books. 20 11 II I p ; V !7 - J J The high school choir participates at many community programs. Choir The A Capella Choir meets five times a week to study and practice the finest in sacred and secular music. Under the direc- tion of Mr. John Finch, the group gives three concerts a year, performing some selec- tions with the aid of other high school singing sections and the orchestra. A selected body of the black- robed association perform un- der the name of the Choraleers. Places in both this organization and the choir itself are obtained through auditions held once a year.

This was accomplished through the hard work of the students and the outstanding leadership of Mr. Richard Snook. Our marching band followed a rigorous practice schedule in order to perform at our football games. They began their rehearsals as early as seven-thirty and continued through first hour. Their endeavors resulted in perfection as representatives of Grosse Pointe High School. Last year the Grosse Pointe High School Orchestra was given a special honor by The Michigan School Band and Or- chestra Association. They were voted to represent the state of Michigan at the National Principals ' Association Convention at Cobo Hall. ill n| TT? a JliL Kl 23 Student Council Executive Committee Organizations 25 Mothers ' Club Tea chairmen for 1961 left to right: Mrs. Philip Gould, Mrs. Ray Nigro, Mrs. Paul Nash, Mrs. Holly Biers, Mrs. Raymond Eddy, Mrs. Ernest Rushmer, Mrs. Fred Adams, Mrs. Robert Thumann, Mrs. James Cornelius, Mrs. Edwon Evenden, and Mrs. Karl Davies. Mothers ' Club The Annual Christmas Tea, given by the Mothers ' Club, was held December 5 in the high school gymnatorium. This traditional event symbolizes the opening of the holiday season for the community. On the stage an old fashioned sleigh with a big Christmas tree and colorful packages formed a festive background for the A Cappella Choir. This choral group yearly entertains the guests. Other annual functions of the Mothers ' Club include the Scholarship Bridge party in the spring. The proceeds from this are used to offset the college expenses of needy graduates. 26 Mrs. Jerry Gerich, wife of the prin- cipal, pours tea for guests at the annual Mothers ' Club Tea. Back to School Night Mrs. Geraldine Bertovick outlined the year ' s work for the parents of one of her EngUsh classes. The parents then had a chance to ask her questions pertaining to the course. One evening every fall par- ents attend school to follow their children ' s daily schedule. The rigors of a six period day takes its toll of the participants. Although no books are carried, some parents get lost, some ar- rive tardy, but their spirits never waver. This occasion is an ideal time for the families to meet the teachers and to learn about each course. Relief from their hectic pro- gram comes when there is a study hall in their child ' s rou- tine. These are conducted in the cafeteria, and an exchange of ideas with other parents is made over cups of steaming coffee. V ■ i M 1 Intent upon the words of Mr. Rich- ard Snook, the parents of band and orchestra students listen with rapt attention. It was suggested that tlic women wear walking shoes.

These in- clude a Christmas party for needy children, working in hospitals, taking part in disaster squad training, and participating in leadership training programs. Every student in high school may be a member of the association. Its pur- pose is to serve the community in times of prosperity as well as in times of need.

There are many groups that sponsor exchange student programs in Grosse Pointe. Among them are the Rotarians, the World Council of Churches, and the American Field Service. Their common goal is to promote peace through the understanding of the world ' s youth. Candidates for either summer abroad or actual semester participation in an- other country must meet the approval of the school selection committee and then pass national qualifications. To be an exchange student, either from American schools or to American schools, an applicant must have a strong academic record with at least two years of a foreign language. Good health is a definite prerequisite. Personality quali- fications include the ability to adapt quickly and easily to different situa- tions, human understanding, maturity, and intellectual ability. Both our representatives in other lands, and visitors who come here from abroad find the exchange programs of mutual benefit and understanding. Sharing international experiences in a panel discussion at a student assembly are left to right: Elizabeth Birkett, Ann Hock, Sherri Bockstanz, Helga Hipp, Don Owens, Mike Eliasen, Jane Evenden, Karen Johannsen, and Mike Simson. Student Council Several types of facilities have been organized in order to better communi- cate with Grosse Pointe ' s twenty-three hundred students. The most important of these are the Student Council, the Activities Council, and the Executive Council. The purpose of these three councils is to get the student opinion from every possible viewpoint. Most of the ideas of the student body are re- layed to the Student Council by means of the homeroom representatives. The special problems which pertain to the clubs are handled through the Activi- ties Council, which is composed of the presidents of all the faculty-sponsored clubs in the school and is presided over by the Vice-President of the Student Association. The Executive Council is made up of three officers from each of the three classes and the Student Asso- ciation officers. This body acts as a liai- son between the faculty and the home- room representatives. All three groups contain people who have a desire to serve the school in the field of better communication, and who have been elected by their fellow students. The core of the Student Association is the S.A. officers. These four, from left to right: Don Owens, president; Diane Menendez. vice-president; Julie Selander, secretary; and Al Hyer, treasurer, meet daily to plan the varied Student Council activities. Vice-president Diane Menendez is shown here meeting with the Activities Council. In this session the club presi- dents are discussing the honors and awards assembly. Some seventy homeroom presidents represent their respective homerooms in Student Coun- cil meetings every Monday afternoon during the last period. 31 FUTURES Future Teacher members assisting at their annual faculty tea are from left to right: Linda Bendlin, Sponsors— Miss Ottilia Schubert, Mr. Richard Beach, Patricia Hawkins, Sue Haberkorn, Eileen Sullivan, Elaine Slowick, Sue Clave and Barbara Cooper. A newly organized club last fall was the Pre-Med group. Doctor John Bradfield was one of the first speakers invited to discuss issues con- cerning the medical profession. The new members and officers of the Future Nurses were installed at a traditional Candle- light Ceremony. This year forty-five new members were inducted.

The results are fun-filled times such as this volley ball game which was one of the activi- ties at the Newcomers picnic last fall. Skin Divers ' Club The Skin Divers ' Club sponsored by Mr. Bishop and Mr. Richter meets every other week to perfect the diving skill of each member, and to instruct new members on the intricacies of the sport. To qualify for membership, each boy must sufficiently pass the required four under- water tests and one final written examination. The accumulation of dues finances an annual skin diving trip. For the past few years these excursions have been to Higgins Lake over Memorial Day. Here Jim Walker, president of the Skin Divers, explains the parts of an aqua lung to the club members. Business Club The Future Business Club became affiliated with the National organization when members were installed in an impressive service. Club officers shown at the left are — left to right: Miss Dorothy Selinger, sponsor; Doreen Rich- ardson, secretary; Bernice Hoslet, vice-presi- dent, Pamela Stahl, president; Cheryl Salo- mon, treasurer; Sandra Nahat, reporter. 33 Key Club One of the most energetic service clubs in the school is the Key Club.

Left to right are: Carol Schildhammer, Pat Flynn, Pat Le Blanc, and Dorothy Gillis. Grease paint adds to the illusion. Sallie Lichtenstein performs as Mr, Nelson directs. Pointe Players There is no business like show business, and those students involved in Pointe Players echo this familiar adage. Under the direction of Mr. Fred- erick B. Nelson, this group produces two major productions each year. This fall they presented Ask Any Girl and in the spring— R. U.K. Pointe Players has its own academy award, The Freddy, and those who receive one have sincerely earned it. Beneath the surface of a production are many threads to be woven into an opening night: staging, lighting, costuming, rehearsing, ticket selling, and then the tension when the house lights dim. As the final curtain falls, the club has another four star credit in their press notices. Continued enthusiasm on the part of energetic students to associate and contribute to Pointe Players keeps it an active organization. 35 First place — Senior Class Second place — Junior Class Third place — Future Nurses ' Club Future Teachers ' Club Y-Teens Floats Fornials Football 36 Red Cross Projectionists ' Club Xoderap Sophomore Class Blue Hi-Y Don Owens.

Homecoming was woven of matiy strands: competition, creativity, admiration, and rec- ognition for others, teamwork, hard work, and the abihty to have a good time. The first place senior float and the 33-6 football victory were results of competition and teamwork. It took creativity to put together a parade of floats and a successful dance. The club entries in the cavalcade of paper and wire forms, and the Roman Rendezvous dance in the gym exhibited imagination and in- ventiveness. A high point of Homecoming was the presentation of Queen Cheryl Moore, ' 62, and her court. All facets of the day displayed young people working hard, and having a won- derful time as the crisp autumn weather envigorated the students and alumni at- tending the events.

This game ended a fine season for the Devils in which they lost only one Border Cities ' League battle. The final contest showed the development of Coach Ed Wernet ' s footballers from unsure, unexperienced organization into a powerful football threat. The Grosse Pointers started their season against perennial foe Ann Arbor. The first half was all for the opposing team. The Devils showed some signs of life in the third period, but not enough as Ann Arbor won 21-13. Another loss to Port Huron served to give the fans doubts about their team ' s future, when a small mistake cost the Pointers a chance for victory. It took the team these two non-league games to get organized and to develop their skills which they demonstrated in four straight B.C.L. victories. According to Coach Jim Curlett, teamwork was an important factor in this improvement. Offense and defense alike worked together for the benefit of the entire team. Consecutive victories over Monroe, Highland Park, Wyandotte Roosevelt, and Royal Oak gave Grosse Pointe a second in B.C.L. competition; and though a strong Dear- bord Fordson squad was capable of stopping the Devils, no one could deny that Grosse Pointe ' s football team deserved the admiration of all. 41 MONROE Grosse Pointe ' s rugged defensive line decided the game with Monroe ' s Tro- jans. After an uneventful first half, the inspired Devils moved the ball 80 yards in six plays for the contest ' s only touch- down. After short runs by Mike Parchall, quarterback Rick Brydges faded back to pass. He hit halfback Tom Thompson with a perfect strike, and Tom sped down the sidelines for the score. Monroe later had the ball on Grosse Pointe ' s two yardline, but the Devil defensive specialists went to work and stopped them four times without a gain. HIGHLAND PARK Nothing could go wrong for the Blue Devils on their Homecoming day as they amassed five touchdowns and three extra points to defeat the Highland Park Bears thirty-three to six. Mike King began the rout with a forty-four yard pass reception and run. A second score came on another pass from quarterback Rick Brydges — this time to Larry Hassel. By the finish of the first half, both Skip Beltz and Mike Parchall had also scored for Grosse Pointe on runs of five and two yards respec- tively. The reserves played most of the second half, and they managed to add to the kill when Carl Vertregt pulled-in a stray Parker pass, and went all the way for six more points. Throughout the entire game the Devil defense proved itself as they held the Highland Park squad to only one touchdown. ROYAL OAK The Devil defense proved itself against Royal Oak ' s Acorns in a battle down to the last second. After Beltz scored twice and Schriefer once, Grosse Pointe intercepted a pass and planned to hold the ball until the end of the game. A Devil fumbled, though, and Royal Oak recovered on the 7 yard line with forty seconds left in the game. It looked as if the Acorns would score easily, but an inspired Grosse Pointe defense held Royal Oak and won 19-14. 42 FORDSON After four straight league victories, the Blue Devil machine was slowed down by the Fordson Tractors as they triumphed over Grosse Pointe 27-6. Quarterback Joe Hamood and halfback Bill Klacking gave the Devil defense headaches on rollouts and straight power plays. By the end of the first half, Fordson had a fourteen point margin. They added thirteen more points in the second half even though the Grosse Pointe defensive team managed to hold them to fewer yards on the ground. A highlight of the game was the running of Skip Beltz. Grosse Point ' s speedy halfback gained 152 yards rush- ing and 19 yards on passes to move the team into scoring distance several times, yet costly fumbles halted the Devil drives. Finally Rick Brydges went over for the touchdown to add a happy note to an otherwise unhappy contest. WYANDOTTE The Blue Devils virtually ruined Wyandotte Roosevelt ' s Homecoming festivities with a 21-13 victory over the bears. Coach Ed Wernet ' s footballers struck early in the first quarter when fullback Skip Beltz raced 60 yards for a touchdown. After a Wyandotte fum- ble, Beltz again took the handof? and powered his way two yards for Grosse Point ' s second tally. Another fumble and another touchdown followed soon. This time quarterback Rick Brydges crashed over the goal line from one yard out. This and three perfect point- after-touchdown kicks by Skip Steven- sen gave the team an insurmountable margin. NON-LEAGUE The first two non-league games were failures as far as Grosse Pointe was concerned. A 21-13 loss to Ann Arbor was followed by another loss to Port Huron by the score of 13-12. By the end of the season, though, Grosse Pointe was a different team, and the squad proved this with a 47-6 victory over Southfield ' s Blue Jays. Tom Tompson scored twice while Schriefer, White, Brydges, and Hassel each scored once. Skip Stephenson converted all the ex- tra points to give the devils a perfect offensive game. 43 State Champions March 10, 1962 ended one of the most successful swimming seasons ever experienced at Grosse Pointe High School. After winning fourteen consecutive dual meets and the Kimball Re- lays, Coach Paul Wheeler ' s nators went on to tie Birmi ngham Seaholm for the state championship in one of the most exciting meets in the history of Michigan. It all depended on the final relay — the relay that Grosse Pointe had dominated with record times in the two previous state contests. By the end of the race, freestylers Bob Sherwood, Neal Bauer, Bob Dallas and Mark Marsh had erased all doubt concerning the Devils ' superiority. With the fastest time ever produced by a group of Michigan swimmers, Grosse Pointe remained the king of the freestyle relay, and the pinnacle of state swimming success. During the course of this perfect season, the Blue Devil swimmers rewrote the record board, leaving only two records unaltered. At final count, they had broken over forty individual and team marks in an assault on the record book which has never been equaled. Certainly much of the credit must go to Paul Wheeler who, year after year, has produced fabulous swimming teams which always win the B.C.L. title and which are always strong state contenders. Coach Wheeler, the team, and especially the gradu- ating seniors have set another record, that of a perfect season, which stands above and beyond all the rest. 44 It takes three things to be a great swimmer: The Start . . . A good start can shave up to one full second ofF a swimmer ' s total time. Here, Don Demeulemeester and Barry Brink get the jump on two Monroe swimmers in the 200 yard free-style event. • • • The Stroke • • • ' j •«- -■•;■ Bob Sherman, All-American for three straight years, displays the stroke that has broken many records for Grosse Pointe this season. Fred Cutler has taken up where his brother, Les, left off four years ago. As the team ' s number one back- stroker. he has shown the desire and skill that it takes to be a great swimmer. . . and The Time. Congratulations, John, said Coach Wheeler shortly after John Woods broke the record Chris Kimball set several years ago in the 100 yard butterfly. Minutes later Woods combined with Bob Shellig, Fred Cutler, and Mark Marsh to set a new national record in the 160 yard medley relay. But it takes a Heam to be State Champs: 46 and this year Grosse Pointe had that TEAM. Cagers Take B.C.L. And District Titles It first year perforrnances have any bearing on future seasons, Coach Hollosy and the Devil basketball team can look forward to many more productive years at Grosse Pointe High School. Mr. Hollosy came from Austin High School to replace Mr. John Thursby as head basketball coach. Though there were only three returning players from the 1961 squad, he developed a team which lost only two regular season games and went on to win the State District title, before losing to East Detroit in a Regional contest. Their overall record was an admirable fifteen wins against only three losses and even more remarkable, this record was amassed in one of the toughest leagues in Michigan. Much of the credit for this fine record can be attributed to the efforts displayed by the three senior players. Rick Brydges, Ken Witzke, and Jerry Brennan. Combining with several fine junior players they formed a formidable team which was rated as a high State title contender. Both the team and the coach deserve the highest praise for such a fine season. D ' HOOGE SPADE BRENNAN Coach Hollosy s three fine guards aided the team tremendously during the season. On fast breaks, their speed and skill baffled the opposing players. 47 Jim Seder, the tallest man on the squad at 6 ' 4 of the team ' s leading rebounders and scorers. was one As Seder moves in for a possible tip-in, Ken Witzke fires a long jump shot toward the basket. 48 Gary Spade out- jumped this Parker to retain posses- sion of the ball in the crucial Highland Park game. Games are won and lost on a team ' s rebound- ing strength. Here, a mob of Devils, including Marc Lonesk and Vie D ' Hooge, rip the ball away from an opposing player. Coach Hollosy ' s strategy was largely responsible for the Devils ' most successful season. At times, when the squad seemed to falter, the coach would pull them together with a few words or a change in offense, and send them out a more confident team. Rick Brydges heeded the coach ' s advice and managed to break through Osborn ' s defense to score two more points for Grosse Pointe during the first district game. 49 With a strong arm and blazing serve, Rick Brydges proved to be a definite asset to the Devil tennis team. Despite close competition from teammate Terry Raven, Steve Schriefer maintained his lead and won his favorite 220 yard event. Tom Raven ' s long stride and endur- ance gave him a definite advantage 50 in the quarter-mile race. Spring Sports Excel Spring brings out the best in Grosse Pointe High School . . . the best in track, baseball, and tennis. As in past years, the Devils are on their way toward an- other Border Cities League Sweep- stakes Trophy. The first sunny day in March found warmly-dressed athletes sprinting around the track, and swing- ing either baseball bats or tennis rack- ets in an all-out effort to get in condi- tion for an early season. Coaches Jim Curlett, Don Zysk, and Ernie Bauer has only praise for their respective teams. Large turnouts for spring practice insured the high quality of athletes for which Grosse Pointe is so well known. Curlett looked forward to one of the fastest mile relay teams ever to be assembled at Grosse Pointe High, while Zysk had five returning lettermen with which to build his team. The interest and desire demonstrated by the participants guaranteed fine sea- sons for all three spring sports. Jack Chown was one of the valuable lettermen who bolstered the baseball team ' s strength. f A V4 After basketball season, Gerr - Spade still had enough spring in his legs to win in the broad jump. As top singles player. Ron Bums amassed an admirable record of wins for Grosse Pointe High. I I I ■ I H ifc- :?■ ' .

At the begiiming of the season hurdle prospects were dim, but John Gerich developed quickly and filled the gap. 51 Intramural Athletics Intramural Sports are becoming more and more popular at Grosse Point High School. A wide range of activities is being offered so that all students can participate in a sport they enjoy. These choices run from major team sports such as basketball, volleyball, and football, to individual ones such as tennis, swimming, and track. To serve as an inspiration to the students the athletic department, headed by Mr. Banach, has provided a number of indi- vidual and team trophies which go to the winners of the contests. An overall point trophy will be awarded to the class which has accumulated the most points during the year. This program has proved highly successful and is ex- pected to enjoy increased popularity in the years to come. Gymnastics is one of the most difficult sports, relying on both strength and coordination. Here, Al Holdiman dem- onstrates a one-armed handstand on the parallel bars. 52 The girls have a chance to get into the act after school in a game of basketball. Showing the varsity some of the finer techniques of this sport are Lin Brown and Anne Adams. Even during the winter, soccer enthusiasts find time to get out and practice. Rick Grenzke, Jon Gandelot, Don Owens, Tom Leonard, and Wolfgang Bear practice heading the ball during a game in the boys ' gym. Weight lifting is an other individual activity intended basically for development of physical prowess. In the back- ground is an example of the type of rigorous workout that Skip Stevenson and others go through three times a week. Handball is an individual sport that requires skill and quick reactions. Here, Tom Schmidt and Ed Wunsch par- ticipate in a play-off match. 53 . ii «3f ' ! ■S r-jimak K ■tF ' iffKu . j V- S-J i i Nothing Slows The .
