Dear
Recalling a year gay and serious, the Scenic
Route of the 1951 Pilot ranges from homework
to tire drills. Pictured are scenes typical of an
American high school and its community.
Daily, students in Murray's district enioy its
lovely parks as Ray Grove, Nancy Hodson,
Barbara Smich, and Bob Beard are doing at
Como Conservatory.
Out on the hillside, Julianne Preda, Joyce
Bergstrom, and Phil Aus accomplish two things
at once-homework, and a dose of vitamin "D"
as they bask in the fall sunshine.
lt's Langford Park for clowns Victor Vainov-
skis, Franz Koeneke, and Dick Slind.
Winter brings its problems to Sharon Watson
who dares Dan Hill to throw that snowball.

method.

School and Community Meet
Seniors Complete the Scenic Route
By way ofa little respite from the business of keeping the Senior Class affairs moving smoothly, the
Senior Board takes time out for a brief lunch. Seated: Fred Swensen, sergeant at arms, Joan Oakins,
secretary, Yvonne Kulenkamp, vice president, Richard Hedenstrom, treasurer, William Hendrickson, ser-
geant at arms. Standing: Barbara Smich, Virginia Hogberg, David Turner, president, Harlan Sween,
Margery Miller, Barbara Pilgren, Marjorie Ubel.
Moving up the aisle in a procession of white
and royal blue, the seniors of i951 remember the
well-traveled route leading to this twelfth Mur-
ray graduation.
Contrary to previous classes, this group had an
early start in becoming unified by electing officers
and choosing class rings late in their sophomore
year.
Many vigorous money making activities were
scheduled when, as juniors, Tom Swanson, presi-
dent, took over. Assisted by Miss Louise Smith and
Mrs. Leona Hanson, advisers, two big dances, the
Sweater Dance and Sadie Hawkins Dance were
successful. Other activities included a popcorn
ball sale and a very popular movie, Margie.
A spring night, made more entrancing by the
theme, "Twilight Time," will long be remembered
as students look back on the prom, May twenty-
sixth, at the Commodore Hotel.
David Turner, a Murrayite of only a year, as-
sumed the duties of senior class president. A por-
tion of the class dues was donated to the crippled
children mentioned in Paul Light's column in the
St. Paul Pioneer Press. Another donation went
into the fund for the European orphan that Mur-
ray is aiding.
Sketches of life in the "Roaring Twenties" were
depicted on December fourteenth and fifteenth
as the dramatic senior production, Cheaper by
the Dozen, was performed. Programs designed by
James Preus added an original touch to the event.
Sponsoring the movie, lt Happened One Night,
brightened the day of January tenth for most of
the student body.
A committee, headed by Eleanor Tyson,
planned and staged an unusual and festive party
for the seniors, March second, Entertainment
ranged from bingo and Ping-pong, to square
dancing.
Today finds many seniors receiving scholastic
honors and looking eagerly forward to a new
and different semi-open prom, May twenty-fifth,
and graduation, June fifteenth. Although busy
planning these occasions, they seriously consider
life's various highways which are leading them
into the future.

Senior Band member Dell Ann Vance points out a
difficult spot in the score to Charlotte Quinn and Gor-
don Prickett.
Via foot, skates, and busses, the Murray High School
Band's itinerary covers varied events from football
games to formal concerts.
Marching, of course, is via foot. Every day, weather
permitting, the Band is out for an hour's session of
practice on the original formations worked out by Mr.
Alex Heron, director. One of the special events of the
season is the Murray-Wilson football game, at which
the combined Bands perform intricate maneuvers.
At home on skates as well as on terra tlrma. the Band
exhibited its versatility in flashy demonstrations. Be-
tween the periods of hockey games, the Band and solo
performers Darlene Dixon, Karlene Boyd, and Bernice
Fortmeyer entertained the spectators. Being recognized
as the first skating Band in the country, the group
received wide acclaim.

Here drums along the walk are a transportation
problem for Director Alex Heron and Richard Heden-
strom, Band president.
The All-Star Band founded by Mr. Alex Heron and
Mr. William Wilke, Columbia Heights High School Band
director, consists of eighty advanced high school music-
ians from Columbia Heights, Cretin, Monroe, Murray,
North St. Paul, and Washington high schools. The Mur-
ray Band contributes from ten to twenty players for each
monthly session. ln one short year this Band has grown
to an organization of considerable repute.
Blue and gold balloons, crepe paper festoons, and
dreamy music created a gala mood for the Homecoming
Dance sponsored by the Band. Members of the hard
working committees received their rewards from the
enthusiastic turnout and the oh's and ah's of delight
expressed by those who attended.
Hours to be remembered are the very noisy rehearsals
of the German Band and the squeaks and squawks

emitted by the various ensemble groups that practice in
corners of the stage and bandroom. Both groups played
on numerous occasions including pep assemblies, the
Talent Show, and at church socials.
An over-abundance of tall, broad boys necessitated
the purchase of six new uniforms this year. This was
made possible through funds received from the annual
magazine drive in which the entire Band participated.
The coming of spring brought the concert season to
the door. Frantic preparations began so that the annual
concert would be a smash hit. Committees were ap-
pointed, musical numbers selected, and tickets and pro-
grams made ready. Always popular, this year's concert
was no exception. Stirring military marches, impressive
overtures and chorals, and plaintive blues songs made
up the program.
Murray's music makers helped brighten the days of
the men at the Veteran's Hospital at St. Cloud. The
group also took part in Thanksgiving and Memorial Day
parades, all this proves that the Band members are
community minded.
Climaxing a gay and colorful year's route was the
annual banquet. Seated at the head table were Presi-
dent Richard Hedenstrom, Vice President Roy Milton,
Secretary Gail Holzinger, and Treasurer Judy Spriester-
sbach.
Lucky is the word for a few members who were
selected to play with the All-Star Band at the State
Clinic of Minnesota Music Educators.
Officers and Band members agree that this year has
been pleasant. Work and play can be fun. Many of
the members will be back on the Murray "Band-Wagon"
again next year, when the organization will be rolling
along to more thrills.

When it is Girls' League meeting time, there is
an air of expectancy as all girls from grades nine
through twelve flock into the auditorium.
This year's programs have been varied and en-
tertaining. Early in the fall under the advisership
of Miss Margaret Rignell, the organization ac-
cepted the responsibility of helping the Save the
Children Federation. Volunteers made garments
and blankets that were sent to needy European
families. This step towards helping others added
another valuable chapter to Girls' League history.
At the hrst meeting Elizabeth Bowman, presi-
dent, welcomed freshman girls as honor guests
while the under classmen supplied home talent to
show that they "belonged," An open forum on
the latest trends in fashion featured Murray
models in November. Miss A. Hines of the Sim-
plicity Pattern Company served as moderator.
February saw Girls' League having a birthday
celebration and sponsoring a dance with Boys'
League. Robert Barnes and lone Harris reigned
over the festivities as the sophomore king and
queen of hearts.

Adviser Al Sandberg, with the assistance of
President Tom Swanson, and Vice President .lack
Veiman, have added something new to this
organization's program. Following the football
season, the League sponsored a bean feed with
Dads as guests. Donations from St. Paul com-
panies helped to make this successful. A second
affair of this kind had the basketball and hockey
teams as honored guests.
The boys admitted to a bit of sentiment when
they sponsored the Valentine Dance with Girls'
League.
Probably the most important service of the
year was the undertaking of a service honor roll
for Murray boys now with the Armed Forces.
Regular meetings featured movies and special

Whot more could editors desire? This was the year that
o new copy desk and ample roorn helped to make the
Murcurie editors' lives less complicotedeexcept for one
thing. Business rnanager Ray Grove's stock question, "How
much does it cost'?", kept editors grinding their teeth and
wishing for a million dollars.
The business staft helped to oftset rising costs by spon-
soring o movie ond a successful Cupid Messenger Service
on Volentine's Day.
The editorial staff had the usual last minute rushes by
page editors and advertisers, the searches for lost copy,
and the sudden news breaks-all of this added up to a
year of responsibility and experience for the Murcurie Stat?
that led to another All-American Award.

Enjoyment came to school and community "on wings ot
song" as the "A" Choir started out a season ot brisk activity
with Mrs. Helen McGeever as director.
Last spring's operetta, a complete sellout, introduced a
bit of old Italy. Both contadine lgirlsi and gondolieri tboysi
liked the gay and distinctive music ot The Gondoliers by
Gilbert and Sullivan. The audience was captivated by the
brilliant performances ot soloists and choristers.
Aiding a great humanitarian cause, the choir caught
the spirit and gave a dynamic service ot song tor the
United Nations Day assembly this tall.
Switching to a lighter vein, because they are not always
serious, various members ot the group livened up many a
pep test. lRemember? "Murray Has a Football Team" to
the tune ot "Goodnight lrene."i
The lovely glow of candles, the measured steps ot the
choir members as they walked down the aisles, and the
glorious strains ot "Oh Come All Ye Faithful" set the scene
tor the beautitul Christmas assembly. The choir's repertoire
ot old Christmas carols, interspersed with newer numbers,
made the program one ot the best ever given. "Hallelujah
Sunny Skies, Cay Costumes, and lilting tunes marked last spring's production of The Gondoliers, a Gilbert
and Sullivan operetta. Above are members ofthe Thursday night cast answering one of the many curtain calls. As is

Everything from Stan Kenton to Sammy Kaye can
be heard Friday nights in the Murray gym when Can-
teen holds forth. In addition to regular Canteen nights,
dances are held for grades seven, eight, and nine.
These special social gatherings give the iunior high
students an opportunity to become acquainted with
each other.
Following the homecoming parade in October, the
Canteen Committee comprised of Junior Class members,
sponsored a sunlite dance honoring all the queen can-
didates. Campaign managers took the occasion to get
vote promises from the still uncertain electorate.
Under the direction of Canteen, the St. Anthony Park
Association gave a neighborhood Halloween party.
This community affair met with general approval as
everything was free and no admission was charged.
Girls did the asking and also paid the bill when Sadie
Hawkins Day arrived. Those who set the fashion for the
event wore original creations of patched burlap. During
the evening modern and square dancing, a mock
wedding, and individual contests took place. All pro-
ceeds were given to the Junior Class.
Canteen is proud of its history in that its beginnings
were purely democratic. Several students in the i945-46
school year felt that the district ottered few recreational
facilities to students. An editorial in the Murcurie helped
the group give voice to its desires.
Following this, a few parents, who read the edi-
torial, brought the matter before the P.T.A. The Can-
teen was launched. The success of the organization
each year depends upon the Canteen committee who
is in charge of the entire program. Adviser is Mr.
Robert Schanke.

It was sprints like this that helped Jim Deane capture the
city crown and become one of the outstanding cross country
high school figures in this area.
The Murray harriers galloped to another successful
season placing third in the city and twelfth in the state
meets respectively. The self-coached, self-trained team
boasted victories over Mechanic Arts and Monroe, while
losing to Central, Marshall, Morris, and Duluth Central.
Scores of dual and triangular meets were: Murray
l5, Monroe 55, Murray 28, Mechanic Arts 29, Morris 2l,
Murray 38, Marshall 28, Murray 29, Duluth Central l9,
Murray 44, Central 23, Murray 45, Mechanic Arts 78.
The team, although losing meets at Duluth and Morris,
showed up well, and learned valuable lessons from
these powerful aggregations.
The City Meet was run at Highland over a rugged
mile and eight-tenths course. Murray finished a strong
third in the meet with Jim Deane Hnishing first in indi-
vidual honors.
Andrew Boss proved to be the surprise of the year
when, after a late start, he finished eighth in the City
Meet. Some of the other outstanding individual perform-
ances of the year were Doug Currence's twelfth and
Dick Slind's fourteenth in the City Meet.
Taking into consideration the fact that the team had
only three returning lettermen they had a very respect-
able season's record.
A city championship is very possible next year with
six veteran harriers returning, two of the best prospects
for the team will be Gordon Prickett and Douglas
Currence.

entry into the State Tournament the third in as many years
under the guidance of Coach Al Sandberg.

ing a decisive victory over a tough Monroe team 5-3.

and body checks which were good enough To give goalie
Jack Renken a shutout and the Pilots a place in the State
Tournament.

and wily Minneapolis Southwest team. Taking an early
lead was not enough for the rinkmen as Southwest un-
leashed a flurry of shots that proved too much for the
bewildered Pilots who bowed 5-3.

G.A.A. Takes Seasons in Stride Around the year instead of around the clock is a good
phrase to describe the activities of G.A.A. This organiza-
tion's members combine recreation and learning in a
perfectly synchronized way as the sports enjoyed make for
more healthful and better living.
ln the fall, soccer led off the sports. Horseback riding,
another activity, was chosen by only a few members
because of the lack of adequate facilities and transpor-
tation.
Winter came with a heavy schedule including bowling,
basketball, swimming, rope jumping, and tumbling. These
are all popular sports among the girls while they are
trying hard, eyeing their point record, and looking forward
to that All-City letter award in the spring.
Invitational basketball games proved popular as it gave
the girls a chance to try their skill against other teams in
the city.
Volleyball was an activity which brought most members
to the gym in early spring giving the girls something to dd
while waiting for muddy fields to dry up. Square dancing
filled many pleasant hours also.
After a strenuous winter program, the girls were anxiou
for the spring activities to take them out-of-doors. Softbal
and tennis proved stimulating.
Social activities were included in the program of G.A.Al
Board members were in charge of the homecoming buttol
sale in the fall. They also sold holly and mistletoe as
money making project during the holiday season. At th
annual G.A.A.-"M" Club Banquet, All-City letters and
Murray letters were awarded and new officers announced.
G.A.A. board members worked in committees to make the
banquet a big success.
Under the direction of Mrs. Rosalee Huebner, G.A.A
added another year to its proud record. Officers for 1950-
51 were President, Eleanor Tyson, Vice President, Pat Ken-
nedy, Recording Secretary, Joan Strobeck, and Secretary-
Treasurer, Jeannine Larson.

Who Plays Today?
Basketball is always a popular intramural sport,
and these boys are no exception to the rule. Playing
are Warren Nelson, Ronald Werner, Bill Hendrick-
son, George Carley.
Fall archery means more than hitting the target.
Here Mr. Robert Schanke, right, explains the need
for checking the sport's equipment carefully. Left
to right are Bob Gruber, Garry Quam, Lester
Brunette, Tom Anderson, Reinhold Hedstrom.
Ping-pong serves as a popular indoor activity during the winter months. Games are
very fast and competition is keen. Getting set for the day's game are Norman Peterson,
Neil Johnson, Bob McDonald, Warren Nelson, Roman Borkan, Ed Connors.
For the lower classmen and older non-varsity boys,
the after-school intramural program is the popular
hour of the day. Here, supervised and coached by
Mr. Robert Schanke, Murray boys find some type of
sport that they thoroughly enioy.
Approximately H5 boys have participated in the
intramural program this year. While teams represent-
ing grades seven through twelve meet in scheduled
competitive contests, the same individuals are not
always in play.
Intramurals are subject to the seasons. Fall finds
touch football and Ping-pong, and archery the
Page seventy-six
favorites. When winter arrives, hockey draws the
largest numbers, with bowling taking second place.
Incidently, volleyball and basketball are sponsored
by the two Hi-Y Chapters at Murray.
Springtime includes a wide variety of sports. For
boys who are interested, there is rifle range practice.
Baseball, horseshoes, and golf are among other ac-
tivities enioyed by the sports-minded individuals.
One rule of intramurals is that no member of
either a senior or iunior varsity is allowed to take
part in this program while engaged in conference
competition.
