Although high school means something c little different to each student, there are certain events which can be appreciated and remembered by oil. Who can ever forget the exuberance found offer a victorious basketball game, the absurdness of a humorous pepfest skit, the cheerfulness found around the lunch fable, the sleepiness found in the first hour Study Hall? It is said that these are the days which •we shall remember most vividly os we g'ow older, because these are the days of carefreeness, senselessness, simply youthfulness — something which can never be regained once lost, only remembered. The 1962 ECHOWAN attempts to capture these youthful, but unforgettable, golden doys. 6 GOLDEN DAYS OF HIGH SCHOOL With ECHOWAN publicity posters n the bockgrcvnd. seniors Hc-di Appleboum ond Anne Heller discus o point of yeorbook producing procedure A trolling score couses the ogeny expressed on the cheerleoder ' foces While heavily guarded, lorry fundingslond shoot for one of the bou-’ which won the lake Conference title for Park.

Nancy Nisser studies a scholarship bulletin in the counselors' office. Sophomore John Lindquist is found settling down to the day's usual business at hond Juniors Curt Frank and Chuck Gill find thoir chemistry experiment vory intorosting and enjoyable. 14 Senior! Phil ToiJovv, Bill Swanson, ond Jeff Dypsvick rood ond experiment to dotormine the solution to their Physics problem In the lob. During the years of the student's high school life, the Science Deportment offers three courses: Biology, Chemistry, ond Physics. The study of biology encompasses the four basic units of plants, invertebrates, vertebrates, and the human body. During the course of study the student is giverr the opportunity to perform dissections on various animols. Chemistry, which treats the properties of elementary and compound substances ond the laws which govern their relation, offers the student many hours of experimentation, lectures, and problem assignments. For the senior who would like to continue in the sconce field, Physics is an excellent choice o? study, for tins course gives one a better understanding of the basic principles fhot govern the physical universe. THE HOPE OF SCIENCE Upon ogreement of seniors frank Boyce, Brian Potcrjon. Tom Bcrgeson. and Pete Moore, the necessary steps in the Physics experiment are completed. Sophomore Cheryl Tucker points out 10 her Biology closs the physical characteristics of the frog. 15 EFFECTIVE COMMUNICATION . . Through o tuol experience Robert Olonder leorns the necessary skill for giving orol book reports. In three years of English learning, students complete a thorough study of grammar and probe into literature to discover the ideas expressed by the authors. Sophomore English stresses Shakespearean drama, contemporary novels, and fundamentals of language usage. As a continuation of these acquired skills. Junior English emphasizes developmental reoding, American literature, and a complete understanding and application of grammatical principles. Senior English includes the study of English literature, spelling, usage, and vocabulary building. Dramatic Arts, open to juniors and seniors, consists of an intensive reading survey of the whole range of dramatic literature. A minor emphasis is placed on production methods.

One more statement should finish if, relates senior Jim Miller os he attompts to prove that A ACD - AABD 18 So this Is supposod to bo o Math class! Perhaps if wo took a closer look, we would find those students of Refresher Mathematics flipping coins os port of their unit on chonco and probability. THE HOPE OF MATHEMATICS Sonior Ed Murray studies o prism in order to gain a better understanding of Solid Geometry. The study of mathematics introduces the art of logical thinking which is so necessary to meet the problems of everyday life. Among the many math courses at Park is Elementary Algebra which includes such topics as formulas, signed numbers, and functions. Basic constructions are studied and proved in Plane Geometry. Advanced Algebra furthers the students' education of algebraic processes. Solid Geometry and Trigonometry, the study of triangles, are combined into one course of study which is usually taken in the senior year. Refresher Mathematics is a review of basic skills, and Senior Mathematics includes such topics os statistics, investments, and insurance. The Accelerated Mathematics course is an enriched program covering in three years all of the traditional high school mathematics plus much work on the college level. 19 With tho use of ehorlj, sophomores Sue Swanson ond Dkk Salitermon explain fo their American History class America's population growth.

Another phase of the curricular program at Park is the study of languages. Students may choose to pursue the mastery of Germon, Latin, French, or Spanish. German I is concerned mainly with learning to read, speak, and understand the basic language. After completing the second year, the student is able to do extensive reading and research study on his own. Latin I covers the mastery of elementary grammar, syntax, vocabulary, and Latin word formations. The second year teaches mythology, classical art, and architecture to complete the study of this course. Two modern romance languages are taught at Park. The French language is useful to anyone who wishes to enjoy France's exceptional contributions to the world of literary culture. The first and second year of learning teach pronunciation, the fundamentals of grammar, common idioms, and verbs.

During her first year at Park, Miss Nelson guided the Echo staff in providing a top-notch paper for the studont body. The Echo staff comprises two main departments. The editorial staff consists of page editors and their assistants whose job is to gather and interpret the school news and do the actual writing of the paper. Marcia Hildebrand and Nancy Nye led the stoff as co-editors of the Echo.

This is an informal gathering of page editors and their assistants held of the home of one of the staff members. Armed with cokes, paper, typewriter and wastebasket, the staff criticizes each others work, formulates new ideas, writes and rewrites many a story. The next step in the life of an Echo is sending the pages to the printer. Since proofs must be checked and returned to the printer, this is done one week before distribution. After the Echo has been checked and approved, the finished product of the staff's hard labor is distributed to be read and appreciated by the students of Park High. A total of sixteen Echos are published bi-weekly during the year.

On the outside if has the appearance of on ordinary book, but on the inside it becomes the personal story of the high school year of overy student of St. Louis Park High School. Within the pages of this book aro retold the excitement of basketball gomes, the glamour of the formal dances, the diligence of after-school committees, the grandeur of Homecoming, the aspects of a typical day, the warmth of friendships, the leadership of our teachers, the pride in being seniors or juniors or sophomores, the satisfaction found in working on worthwhile projects — in general, the things that make a high school year memorable, the things that aro important to each of us personally. How did this ECHOWAN come into being? The responsibility rested on the shoulders of the ECHOWAN stoff. This staff was composed of an advisor, an editor-in-chief, eight section editors and their assistants, a business manager, copy, index, and art editors, a photography coordinator, a director of printing, a subscription head, and on advertising manager. Photogrophy was done by Mr. Cliff Wilder of the David Bank Studios. During the summer, the staff met at Mr. Loegering's homo to make plans for the coming year. The theme was decided upon, pages were allotted, and new ideos were discussed. Members of tho staff met during sixth hour in room 335. During this time layouts were made, pictures were scheduled, copy and headlines were written, picture captions were composed, publicity posters were made, copy was checked, and names were indexed. The most vigorous activity, however, began about two weeks before deadlines when everyone suddenly realized how much there was left to do.

Some groups visited morgues, sponsored car washes, or held white-elephant sales. Others had joints with Hi-Y's, bowled with their chapters, had pot-luck suppers, or held rummage sales. During the year, eoch chapter shared a service project with onother chapter. This meant that a certain rest home, orphanage, or nursing home was put in the' care of the two chapters. Each month one of the chapters would perform a service for the establish-ment. They put on style shows, caroled at Christmas, mode troy favors for Thanksgiving, Halloween or Easter, and did any number of various things to cheer those who led on otherwise lonely life. 59 Hl-Y SEEKS TO AID COMMUNITY Following the lumborjock Ooy tradition or Rom Abvln ond Gene Erickson o� they � • � eoch other strength by arm wrestling.

Because of this, boys in Hi-Y were able to learn more obout government and legislation by actively participating in a model legislature assembled ot the Minnesota Capitol Building in April. In the beginning, delegates were chosen from each school in the state according to the population of the school. In March, senators and representatives were elected and sent to a pre-training conference at Mocaloster College. There they formed two political parties and held elections for the state offices of governor, lieutenant governor, speaker of the house, secretary, treasurer, and chaplain. After that, members of eoch party drew up bills which they would try to have enacted into legislation. The climax was in April with a two-day session held in the Capitol. The boys were allowed to use the Senate and House chambers, and here they conducted a model legislature where they brought up, debated and rejected, and passed or tabled the bills that had been previously devised. 61 Temporarily more interested in Co-ed than Sporti Illustrated are Hi-Y member!

HARRIERS POST UNDEFEATED RECORD, CHAMPS OF CONFERENCE, DISTRICT, REGION, AND STATE A state championship in 1961! This was the goal of the Cross-Country Team. As they began practice last August, they were blessed with two tremendous assets. One of these was Roy Griok, one of the sport's top coaches. The other was the foct that 28 boys were returning from the previous season, including Bruce Mortenson, Tom Longen, Charles Patterson, Howord Winer, and Brad Oman. With this nucleus, a promising year wos in prospect. The long road began on September 15, when the Orioles defeated Bloomington in its first dual meet. Following this victory. Park went on to score 8 more dual meet victories, place First at the Swain Invitational, win the District 18 Championship, Region 5 Championship, and finally the State Meet. This was the First undefeated season for o Cross-Country Team at Park, although predecessors had won a state championship in 1955. Dual Moot Record Sopt 15 Pork . ... .. 15 8 loom log for. ....

TEAM HAS WINNING WAYS, BUT LOSING EFFORTS The Oriole gridders seemed able to move the ball everywhere but over the goal line as they racked up a 3—6 overall record for the 1961 season. It was a season of frustration and disappointment, but with a few more breaks and a few less costly mistakes, this record could have been greatly improved. The squad got off to a rugged start os they were pitted against Richfield and Edina in their first two games. These two teams, which battled in the season finale for the conference championship and ranked among the top teams in the state, both set the Orioles down in defeat. The following week, however, the squad rebounded and pulled a real upset by defeating Wausau, a perennial Wisconsin powerhouse, in a closo and exciting game. The team now seemed ready to roll as they dampened Mound's Homecoming by staging a comc-frcm-behind victory and then by thumping Woyzata in our own Homecoming game. With four games remaining on the schedule. Park was apparently ready to move up in the conference standings. But now disaster struck. Through a combination of injuries to key men, costly penalties, and fumbles, all four of these games which could have been won were lost. The squad was able to move the ball well, for their total yardage was greater than thot for their opponents. However, they were oufscored by 146 points to 63. An important fact to be noted here is that the team had a total of eight touchdowns called back due to penalties which often occurred in key situations.

SWIMMERS TAKE 4 th INSTATE Under the cooching of Dick Woinio and Bob Erickson, the St. Louis Pork Swim Team went through the '61 -'62 season with their best record since 1959. After a successful 9—4 dual meet season, with their only losses to Rochester, Hopkins (2), and Edina, and with victories over such tough opposition as Austin, Edino, and Winona, the Oriole mermen went on to fake second place in the Lake Conference-District 18 Meet and fourth place in the State Meet. A number of Pork tankers broke records throughout the seoson. Teom marks fell to Jeff Freund in the 400 at 4:26.0, Mike Hamlin in the diving with 75.0 points, and to Bruce Argetsinger in the individual medley at 2:30.0. Both team and pool standards were tumbled by Captain Jon Klingel in the 100-yard freostlye at 52.2 and by a freestyle relay composed of Hamlin. Freund, Klingel, and Mike Bowen, at 1:34.9. Mike Mullaney established a new conference record in the diving by piling up 293.2 points. In the Conference Meet, boys who placed third or higher in Park's successful defense of second place were Freund, Klingel, Bowen, Tom 7anno, Mullaney, Hamlin, Argetsinger, and both relay teams. In the State Meet at tho University's Cooke Hall, five Pork swimmers qualified for the finals. There Jeff Freund and Mike Bowen took sixth in the 400 and 50 respectively.

WRESTLERS SHOW GREAT IMPROVEMENT IN SECOND Duo mainly fo the skilled coaching of Jack Willhite, a year of experience for the older members of the squad, and a talented group of sophomores, the Park Wrestling Team showed tremendous improvement over last season, which was it's first in sixteen years. The team's overall record showed nine victories and six defeats, which earned them a fifth place finish in the Lake Conference. The squad's steady improvement throughout the season showed especially when they copped third place in the District 18 Tournament, bettered only by Robbmsdolc and Hopkins. Outstanding wrestlers with their regular season records were Mike Campbell 12—1), Howard Winer (13—1), Dove Lehman (8—4), Bruce Langhus (6—7), Steve Braworman (6—6), Gordy Peterson (8—5), Glen Fefterley (9—6), and Bob Smith (11—2).

CO-CAPTAINS SPEARHEAD SUCCESSFUL SEASON Peter Zanno's icemen, led by the most powerful 1—2 scoring punch in the Lake Conference, namely, Tom Langen and Phil Reith, finished the season in third ploce with a respectable 10—5—1 conference record. Langen and Reith, with 35 and 34 points respectively, were the second and third greatest point-producers in the conference. The Orioles got off to a good start, winning their first six games and battling for the number one spot in the league. Unfortunately, the affock bogged down at mid-season, when the squad dropped four of five contests, ond was held scoreless in three of these. The team, however, rebounded from this slump and finished the regular season strong by winning five of its final seven games. Due to their high conference finish, the squad advonced to the Region V Tournament, in which they defeated Minnetonka 3—1 in their first game, ond in their second and final contest lost a heortbreoker to Edina by the score of 3—2.

DoRomor ORIOLES TAKE STATE CHAMPIONSHIP The Oriole cagers, through a tremendous team effort highlighted by o balanced scoring attack, a tenacious defense, and strong rebounding, compiled a 14 win-loss record, thereby capturing the Lake Loop title for the first time since 1957. With three starters returning from last season's second place squ-d — tri-captains Bruce Ackland, Bob Hill, ond Mark Zanna — the Orioles were rofed as the team to beat in the Lake Conference, ond one of the top squads in the stote, even before a game hod been playod. The Holmsmen proved the predictions true, as they defeated every team in tho conference twice except Hopkins who handed them both of their defeats In two close, hard-fought contests. The Parkers held at loost a share of first place throughout the season, but didn't nail down the championship outright until the final game when they met and defeated Bloomington by a score of 52—50 in one of the most dramatic sports events of the year. Balance was the key word to the Orioles this season. Although the squad showed no one outstanding scorer, throe of the storting five ended the season among the top twenty point-producers in the conference: Bruce Ackland, tenth; Larry Fundingslond, eleventh; and Mark Zanna, seventeenth. However, on any given night, all of the five starters showed the ability to score well in the double figures. Other than this, the squad showed great rebounding strength, both on the offensive and defensive boards. Leading in this category were Fundingslond, Hil, ond Jerry Orbeck. The team also showed good bench strength with Jim Bloomqurst, Jerry Brouwer, and Chuck DeRemer soeing the most action of the reserves. At the end of the season, three members of the team were voted to the All-Lake Conference squod; they were Ackland and Fundingslond at guards ond Zanna at forward.

B” SQUAD SETS PACE FOR CONFERENCE For fho second consecutive yeor the Pork B Squad Basketball Team captured the Lake Conference crown, as their A Squad brothers did. The team finished their victorious season with a record of 15 wins and losses only to Bloomington and Richfield. A predominantly sophomore squod, the hopes of Park's future varsity can stay high. The starting five of Bill Hill and Charles Grover of forwards, Ken Sandstad at center, and guards Steve Feinsfein and Al Gotkin showed that Cooch Griak Hod molded his boys into a well balanced, unified squad. This quintuplet was backed by Buzz Levitt, Jerry Kiernan, Steve Kinslor, Richard Tester, and Paul Grehl. 97 Orbeck awaits his chance to change trailing score. Now holding tho lead. Coach Holm keys his players tor second holf. Few of Park's students will forget the team's final game of the regular 1961-62 season, the contest in which they met the Bloomington Bears, who were tied with them for the top spot in the Lake Conference. A capacity crowd of 2500 assembled in the gym this night, for everyone realized that the conference championship and success of the seoson depended on the outcome of this gome. As the gome began. Park rooters saw to their dismay that this was not one of the Orioles' hot nights; they hit only 25% of their shots for the evening, and soon feel behind by eleven points os the first quarter ended. However, tho tide turned in the second period, and we led 29—22 at the half. Bloomington then came on strong, outscoring the Orioles 19—5 in the third period, and oppeored to have snatched the title away from us in this final game as they led by seven points with only 2:37 left to play. However, Park refused to give up. They applied a full-court press, stole the boll repeatedly, and scored nine points to none for Bloomington, tho lost basket a 25-foot jump shot by Zanno with 13 seconds remaining, to win tho game and the conference championship. 98 Zonno (for right) swishes the biggest two points of the year.

As Coach Holm said, after his team had run the gamut of District, Region, and State opposition, We played the toughest competition all the way, and the boys proved themselves worthy of the crown time offer time. Beginning with the District 18 Tourney, tho boys hod their job cut out for them; they hod to defeat Richfield, Hopkins, and Bloomington, their three toughest competitors throughout the Lake Conference season. They accomplished this feat by taking command of the start of each game and building up enough of a lead to insure victory. Tho first contest found Park triumphing over Richfield 54—47. Following this, the Orioles finally cut down the one team which had defeated them during the season, Hopkins. Like the previous contests against this arch-rival, this one wos close and exciting all the way, and on overtime period was needed to bring this revenge victory to Park, 51—46. The next night Park met Bloomington for the District Championship. Just two weeks before, the Orioles had snatched from the Bears what appeared to be certain victory, and with it the conference crown, in the final minutes of the game. However, Bloomington was not to find its vengeance, as hot outside shooting for Pork and a very effective defense of Denny Allaman, Bloomington's big gun. brought Park the final victory, 47—44, and with if Park's first District 18 crown in five years.

This hurdle was, surprisingly enough, easier than the District. In the semi-finals, the Orioles racked up their only easy win of all the tournament games as they drubbed an outclassed Monficello five 76—55. In the finals Park met South, the City champion, in what was labeled a dream game — the Lake Champ against fho City chomp. Thus, there was more at stake than just a victory — Park was also fighting for the prestige of the Lake Conference. The Orioles Proved their superiority by soundly defeating South 62—49. The story of this game was, as usual, balanced scoring, defense, and rebounding. Four of Park's starters hit in the double figures, the team as a whole outrebounded South 57—30, ond South's two aces, Pautr and Newsome, were held to 12 and 11 points respectively. Thus, for the first time. Park won the Region 5 Championship, and earned the right to go on to the State Tournament. All of the Oriole starters received special recognition in these tourneys. Bruce Ackland, Larry Fundings-lond, Bob Hill, and Mark Zanna were named to the All-Tournament Team in the District, and Ackland, Fundingsland, and Zanna were joined by Jerry Or-bcck for this distinction in the Region Tournament. dTOPUWBS All-Stater tarry Fundlng� lan t drive In for another boilot.

In the first game the Parkers were opposed by a tall squad from Crosby-lronton. The first half wos dominated by the Orioles as they led 17—12 at the end of the first quarter, and by 36—29 at the end of the half after Bruce Ackland swished the shot from half court just as the period ended. During the third period the Orioles' shooting cooled off a bit, and the Rangers took advantage of this opportunity and took the lead by two points as the third period ended. Going into the fourth quarter the squad started well but being plagued at the gift line and by the loss of two key men, Jerry Orbeck and Bob Hill by fouls, the Rangers took the lead, and as the seconds ticked away the hopes of the state championship begon to fade. Trailing by two points with eight seconds remaining, Park called a time-out to plan their last shot. When play began, a screen wos set up and Ackland swished a twenty-footer to send the game into overtime. For the first two minutes of the overtime period, the Orioles and Rangers traded baskets on even terms. As the end of the three minute period approached, Ackland drove down tho court and sank a jump shot in the final three seconds to give Park a 75-73 win and the chance to go on in the tourney.

THE SEMI-FINALS: VICTORIES FOR ORIOLES On Friday night Park had to face Danube, and one of tho greatest players ever to come from the state. Bob Bruggers. The starting moments of the game seemed to be a shooting duel between Bruggers and Acklond. The Orioles and the Hawks exchanged the lead nine times during the first half, which closed with the Porkers trailing 36—31. In the third quarter the Orioles gained a lead of 42—36, but were overtaken and trailed at the end of the period by two points. In the final period, the Holmsmen drove within one point of Danube but again by the remarkable shooting of Bruggers, they fell behind by six points. But the Orioles came back again, and with 2:14 left to play Larry FundingsJand, another key man in the tourney, tied the score with a field goal. Fun-dingsland and Acklond both pulled the Orioles ahead by sinking vital free throws and Acklond finally copped the contest by converting two gift tosses with only 23 seconds left, bringing the score to 66—62. This victory gove Park a seat in the championship game the next night. Ill The OricVes worm up for the determining Stole Chompionihip gome. PARK BRINGS HOME FIRST STATE CHAMPIONSHIP Forword Jerry Orbock goe� high to pull a rebound off the boordt. In the final game the Orioles were pitted against the Packers of South St. Paul. The Packers took an early leod but by balanced shooting, the key to othor Oriole victories. Park took the leod and held it at 18—12 at the end of the first quarter and 34—26 at the half. In the third quarter the Orioles broadened their lead to eleven points. All looked promising until a few costly mistakes cut the Oriole lead to only one point with 1:32 left to play in the game.

A messy locker, whispering in doss, and the selling of Glee Club candy are only a minority of familiar things seen of Park. These sights which are often taken for granted will linger on and stand out the most in our minds after graduation. We dedicate these pages to sights which are everpresent in our halls, on our football field, in our cafeteria, and in our classes. Let us, therefore, proceed to look at these the familiar sights at Park. 112 No growing senior boy is content without hi customary two bottles of milk ot lunch, os evidenced by Jeff Dypwick.

Before we know It the cheerleaders are lined up for the Class Yelll Sophomores, Juniors, and Seniors, one at a time stand up and scream as loud os fb«y can.

INFORMAL DANCES Throughout the year many dances are held at Park. Dress varies from slacks and sweaters at the aftergame donees to formal dress at the Christmas Ball. The Sadie Hawkins Dance, sponsored by Blue Tri, was characterized by Dogpatch attire and the announcement of the Li'il Abner characters. Seniors Diane Parks and Chuck Patterson were chosen Daisy Mae and L'il Abner this year. The after-game dances always seem to be fun and full of excitement whether our teams win or lose. All forms of dancing can be found, particularly the Crystal and the Twist. But everyone agrees that no matter what type of dance it is, there is always fun and a chance to be with someone special. 116 Dom thii opply 0 vi� ? mli� |unior Jody Kobo of jonlor Dove Goy.

The new, the different, the exciting — the class of '64 answered all these challenges with on energetic burst of spirit. In the frenzy of the first doys of our sophomore year, we renewed old friendships and made new ones as freshmen from both junior highs joined together to form the class of '64. Election of our capable doss officers with Bill Hill os president. Dale Lapakko as vice-president, Kathy Kennedy as secretary, and Mike Soilowoy os treasurer started our first year at Park with a bong. Led by these officers, the Sophomore Board planned the year's activities. The complicated structure of the senior high baffled us at first, but we soon became acquainted with the school. We found ourselves caught up in a whirlwind of activities and homework. Sophomores joined clubs which dealt with their special interests and abilities. Before we knew it. Homecoming was upon us and with it our first floats, coronation, ond semi-formal dance. Sophomore homerooms showed school spirit as fhoy took second and third places in the float contest. We proved our true worth as sophomores contributed their muscles to help achieve Slave Day's goal. Sadie Howkins, the Christmas Ball, and the Tropical characterize the many dances we attended during the year. When spring came our classes become routine and wo joined the upperclossmen to make Jester-day a success. As we considered our future plons we realized that we soon would be treading the halls of Pork os mighty juniors. 123 Ricki Abroms Morlio Aksfoter Denise Allmon Albert Anderson Nancy Anderson Thomas Anderson Oaron Applequ.il Gerald Agin Susonne Alexander Thomas Amorton Judith Anderson Shirley Anderson William Andenon AnWo Arndt Nancy Agnesi Sherwln Alpert Betsy Andersen Kathleen Anderson Steven Anderson Cynthia Anton George Arnold ANEW SCHOOL Noncy Atlas Morion Bocklund Keith Atwood Arlene Bader Sharon Aibell Donald Baker Judith Baker Candace Barr Edward Bebermon Cheryl Beckey Helene Bellmon Steven Bolklnt Sandra Barry Mkhoel Becker Donna Beehler James Bengfson Bruce Barnett Gregory Bartels Alter five minutes ol pushing and shoving in the crowded halls, sophomores found their classrooms a welcome haven. 124 President Sim lindgren l� odt o homeroom discussion In Jock ANiHn’i enriched English eloa about their upcoming Oirl� tmo� pro|ect.

The Homecoming dance Romanesque brought in the first funds for the Prom, which we sponsored in the spring. The production of our first class ploy was a gratifying experience. Ah, Wilderness! by Eugene O'Neill was truly a success and our sincero appreciation goes to Miss Lee Ann Irgons for her directing talent, the cast, who put on two fine performances, and the unheralded helpers who made it all possible. To help us meet our financial needs, we sponsored on aftor-gome dance and sold concessions at football games. Under the supervision of the class officers. Junior Board, and our advisor. Miss Ann Isacson, we successfully accomplished the responsibilities of the Junior Closs that will odd to our high school memories. Wo were fortunate enough to have with us capable juniors who held key positions on the student council, while others represented our closs at meetings and on committees. Junior boys returned to work with our varsity football coach Rob Roy as we all roofed the team on to victory. The girls participated in cheer-leading, Parkeftes, Surfbelles, and G.A.A., while other juniors worked hard on ECHOWAN ond Echo, in the bands and in various other activities. For our second year in high school, we did our share to help surpass the goal set by the Student Council for Slave Day, 1961. As juniors, we realized the importance of Slove Day, for it would bring the A.F.S. representatives for our senior year. We no sooner had ordered our Junior Class rings, when suddenly we found ourselves preparing for our senior year. This made us aware of how quickly our high school days pass by. We looked forward to those too few ond for between vocations. 141 Nancy Sargeont. jecfetary, Jon Dolejil. treasurer; Dove Kuthner, prewdent, ond Charles DeRemer. vice president. d tcuu the oftairs of the Junior Clou. Concerts, carols, and the Christmas Ball ushered us into the Yuletide. Basketball filled the lull between Christmas and spring vacation. With the advent of spring come the elections of Student Council, class officers, and delegates to Boys' and Girls' State, the Tropical Canteen, Jesterday, and the spring sports. With the ending of spring events we realized the close of our junior year was near, but successful participation in the many junior activities ond the school spirit we displayed gave us fho positive answer . . .

The school doors ported for our teachers one week prior to their officiol opening. After exchanging greetings with their old and new colleagues, our faculty embarked upon their full schedule of events. The entire staff was welcomed by Mr. Robert H. Hill, chairman of the School Board, and Mr. Harold R. Enosfvedf, superintendent of schools, at a general meeting in the auditorium. During the following days our faculty members could be found in every section of the city conducting the annual census program. They were greeted by mothers, fathers, children, and even some frisky members of the onimol kingdom who were all very interested in whot their visitors had to say. The program completed, our instructors returnod to school to prepare for the coming year, rich in its intangible rewards for them as well as their students. Our feachors wero kept very busy for the remainder of tho week. They listened attentively to guest speakers who spoke on old and new aspects of education. There were schedules to be checked and books to be mode ready for distribution. There were department meetings to attend at which our instructors discussed plans for the coming year. Mr. Bertil M. Johnson, St. Louis Park High principal, gave the closing address which concluded a very busy week for Park High's faculty. Our faculty listens attentively as Bertil Johnson's concluding oddress closes off o busy week 218 Leo Rormon checks over hh books to ready them for distribution during the following week. A WARM WELCOME TO PARK’S TEACHERS Arlon Vollmer take lime off to relox in the lounge. Our instructor diicuM Ihe event of the day over lunch. The Science Deportment meet to decide on the yeor't curriculum. Our faculty leads a very busy life. They are nor only our instructors, but they are our advisors and friends as well. Their school day generally begins earlier and ends later than ours. But a teacher's work i$ not all joyless toil. A student's growth is his reward. Like us, our teachers often fake time off to catch up on the events of the day and relax in the lounge. At lunch they may talk about current nows, books, movies, and fashions over a cup of coffee. After school they have numorous tasks to perform. They are always on hand to help and guide a student with a problem. They join in with their students os advisors of one or more of the numerous extracurricular activities. And don't think they don't enjoy it! There are numerous department meetings to attend where major decisions are made about the year's curriculum. After the halls are emptied of the traditional noises of the day, a teacher may linger to chat with one of his colleagues before heading for home. But their work does not end when the school door closes behind them. Teachers hove homework to do, too. There are tests to be corrected, assignments to be prepared, and movies to be ordered. In addition, many of our faculty members are doing groduote work by attending night school or summer institutes. And so we can see that our instructors are more than disciplinarians. They ore our friends and as our friends they are deeply concerned about us and our future.

PARK SPOOFS ROARING 20'S IN ITS FIRST MUSICAL PRESENTATION, THE BOY FRIEND A musical satire of the roaring 20 s era, Tho Boy Friend, was presented by the Dramatic Arts class. The first musical ever put on at Park was a pleasant change from the usual Shakespearean play. The original scenery and colorful costumes helped make The Boy Friend an unusual and extremely enjoyable play. The setting is the French Riviera at Madame Dou-bonnet’s (Nancy Stesin) finishing school for wealthy young ladies. Polly (Kathy Berquist), the daughter of a millionaire, Percival Browne (Bruce Gendein), falls in love with Tony (Bill Spurlock) who is the son of Lord Brockhurst (Gary Gears). Tony pretends to be a delivery boy and Polly, afraid that he will lose interest if he knows that she is rich, pretends to be a secretary. Lord Brockhurst steals away from hit wifo to enjoy a few minutes of fun with the girls. Tho beach on the Riviera � oti the sccno for fun and romance.
