Sturdy, determined pioneers hacked away at the edges of a raw continent and, with blunders and achievements alike, modeled a country with a spirited nature and a united commitment to individual liberty for every one of its citizens. Americans, great and not so great, have given us a heritage to carry on and improve upon. Farmers and soldiers, industri- alists and merchants, dreamers and leaders, are all there in two centuries of progress. But the maturing isn't finished. You'll find the boundaries of growth as endless today as when our forefathers first envisioned them. You can seek out your own destiny with the wisdom and judgement which comes with re-creation of the past. Your knowledge, dreams and industry will carry on through many more centuries of living history. 635512 mm IN CUNGRESS, JULY41776. xtimo1tQecfaratto1t U,-fs. flirfm-, ,M f5tafe5 ofcwnwricou, Gm 4a.4.,..,f4.,..,. ffl ..,4.,,f ,4.,.w4,4,,4a .4e..J,.c,,4x...W...Wz,,.4x:...,,4f.,...m1 tba dit-My -BK :,.

The colonists reacted in seething resentment which erupted into angry protestations. The first blood ol: the American Revolution was spilled during one such incident at Boston in 1770. Several Americans lost their lives over a snowball thrown at a British sentrv. In the fight to achieve commerce equality, the United States found itself in a naval war over shipping lanes. Fort McHenry was heriocally held during a British naval bombardment, and the stars and stripes still flew after a night of hard fighting. The next morning Francis Scott Key penned the immortal words of what would become the national anthem. :rf ' 2, t Hes s .e .-.- - ..,, X liittume , Settlers had to have permanent access to the new lands, so canals and bridges were built to carry stages and wagon trains loaded with machinery destined for settlements in the West.

Television became a part of every farnily's lite. National events were household topics - while they happened - thanks tothe new medi- um. Individuals and groups were seen on the tube as- they advocated new social reform, or jus-tice, or special causes of their own. TV gave individuals and political systems power greater than ever before. Audio-visual journalism had made its impact. Nearly L00 years of stiggling for civil liberties were realized when President Lyndon Baines lohnsun -signed the Civil Rights Act of 1064 into law, The Act outlawed segregation in any form. f , .V.

The worlds energy sources and natural re- sources were being used up faster than thev could be replenished Americans once again waded into a new frontier. The ' energy crisis and ecology were prominent words in the language. Ways to save nature from the neglect of mankind and ways of preserving precious fuel without damaging that balance of nature were the obiectives of Americans across the country.

Admitted to the Umor' In 1959 Admitted to the Union in 1959 Ownership of land had been just a dream to most of the colonists from feudal England. With the great expanse of cheap land opening up in the West, the dream became reality. The Louisiana Purchase of 1803 opened the first sizable frontier in the Midwest, but the nation was not ready for it yet. It took a growing market in the East, where land was getting high-priced and scarce, and develop- ment of good transportation, to really start the frontier movement. The Cold Rush caused hordes of settlers to take various routes to the Pacific Coast and its yellow riches. The railroads brought farmers and ranchers, along with the miners, who decided to stop all along the routes and build their homes. Railroads were instrumental in the quick civilization of the West, bringing people in num- bers so large that the resentful Indians were finally pushed back into unwanted and infertile areas. America became a haven for immigrants from every na- tion as freedom beckoned them to the teeming cities of the East, the plains, and the rich west coast farmlands. Sick of the Civil War and with their own lands divided up and lost, many Southerners set out to begin again in the virgin territories. Westering soon became the national tradition as North and South moved together toward a new life. Americanism was advanced socially, by the hard-working, bare-fisted types who settled the frontiers.

With trade goods cut to a minimum, determined young leaders of the time set out to find ways of surviv- ing without support from the Mother Country. Agricultural methods and machines and labor saving devices were designed by our forefathers. As frontiers opened, Yankee genius had to conquer natural barriers in the wild new country, so suspension bridges were invented and methods of transportation were perfected for the purpose of opening the untamed areas. Later, they sought to section off the land with the revolution- ary and controversial invention - barbed wire. Cooper's 1-horsepower Tom Thumb train in 1830 and later, automobiles like the first Model T, and the 4-horsepower airplane g became American modes of travel from city to city and coast to coast. Americans knew that the fertile lands of this nation would produce unequalled harvests if machines were designed to take over for man. They knew also that trade 'routes were difficult to travel and manufacturing would have to be done close to home. The cotton gin, textile looms, drill presses and a reaper which could cut six times as much grain as a hand scythe were some of the tools invented. Protection for themselves and for their young country prodded inventors like Eli Whitney to perfect firearms and others to work on plans for the first submarine. Young inventors like Alexander Graham Bell and Thomas Edison fcalled the nation's most valuable citi- zenj visualized machines that would light the country and open up communication with those inthe far cor- ners of the nation. The telephone, telegraph, phono- graph and the first light bulb were discovered in the late 1800's and early twentieth century. This American way of doing for oneself inspired many to become inventors in their own right. Some sought to save labor and mass- produce for profit while others envisioned not only riches, but excitement and adventure as they discovered ways to defy nature. Throughout the past 200 years the American mind has been unleashed to take whatever paths necessary to ful- fill the needs. ln the last half-century, the pace of dis- covery has been overwhelming and inventions for the taming of the universe lie in the grasp of America while the habit of finding a way is ingrained in its people. The seeds of industrial America were sown by these inventors resulting in today's mechanized society. THEY MADE THEIR MARK Men and women who helped shape America's history THOMAS PAlNE, a bankrupt Quaker corsetmaker, some- time teacher, preacher and grocer wrote the most bril- ltant pamphlet of the American Revolution, Hts words rn Common Sense retllectedllorigrrrgs' and asprratronsllhat have remained part ol American culture to this day.

J 2 I i 2 X THE EFFECT OF GAMMA RAYS ON MAN-IN-THE-MOON MARIGOLDS The Effect of Gamma Rays on Man-in-the-Moon Marigolds is a powerful and moving study of an embittered vin- dictive widow and her two young daughters. Acid-tongued Beatrice supports herself and her two daughters by taking in a decrepit old boarder. One daughter, Ruth, is a pretty but highly strung girl subject to convulsions, while her younger daughter, Matilda, plain and very shy, has an intuitive gift for science. Encouraged by her teacher, Tillie undertakes a gamma ray experiment with mari golds. Proud and yet jealous, too filled with her own hurts to accept her daughter's success, Beatrice can only maim when she needs to love, and deride when she wants to praise. As TilIie's experiment proves, something beautiful and full of promise can emerge from even the most barren, afflicted soil. This is the timeless lesson of the play... -CAST OF CHARACTERS- Director ....... . . Debbie O'Malley Tillie . . . ...... . ...... Mary Kay Huber Technical Director . . . .

And a new day will dawn for those who stand long and the forests will echo with laughter...And, if you listen very hard, the tune will come to you at last, when all are one and one is all, to be a rock and not to roll.

A dance, with music provided by Wind, concluded the evening for all one hundred and eighty-seven students that attended. Before we realized it, prom was over. But it was a. night filled with many memories and times to be remembered YA by all. l .f -,gr ve l A New AY To 'AEA 116+ 4 Nl ik fl! ' W ST 'MI w 'I ' . f 'jig ,- , f ' xl .fn ,,,, ,Q Uk I ' 'JP .'

There was one fund raising project held during the year in which each member was given a box of ink pens to sell. Again this year they enjoyed a Christ- mas shopping trip and pizza supper in downtown Min- neapolis. The vending machines, which were pur- chased by the SAE in the past, were moved from the senior high to the junior high in January. A volleyball game was held after the March 8 meeting with the opposing team being the B.P.H.S. Student Council.

EXTRA WORK GIVES EXTRA CGVERAGE The 1975- 76 Tiger Topics staff continued with the same method used during the previous year -- the production of the paper during the school day and the course being offered as an elective English credit. This method gave more students an opportunity to work on the paper. The biggest change this year was in the technical improvement. The class strived for improved headline writing and coverage that included as many different people as possible. The extra work has produced a paper B.P.H.S. can be proud of!

They started the year by having a pizza party. At Christmas time, they sold wreaths, went caroling, and had a sleigh ride. As a special activity, they attended Guys and Gals at the Chanhassen Dinner Theatre. In the spring, everyone ate well at the Parent's Banquet As if these were not enough, they had two dances and a slumber party in the junior high home economics room. Future Farmers of America were also active throughout the past year. Besides attending meetings, the members planted trees on Arbor Day as well as tree planting in the park. They donated 51000.00 to Camp Courage from the corn drive. At the State Fair, Belle Plaine placed third in the all day demonstration of sheep fitting. Many members received special awards. Bill Sirek received the American Farmer Degree in Kansas City at the National Convention. Not everyone has an award, but all members deserve special recognition for their constant efforts.

N.H.S. GROWS Each year students in grades ten, eleven, and twelve who have at least a scholastic average of B are eligible for National Honor Society recognition. In addition to this minimum academic standard, a gtu- dent must demonstrate highly favorable qualities of leadership, character, and service. In 1976, ninty- one students met the scholarship requirement. Twen- ty-nine of these were nominated for further consider- ation by at least three of the twenty-six teachers who participated in the evaluation. Finally the twen- ty-nine were rated on a four point scale. To receive National Honor Society recognition, a student had to receive votes from at least half of the evaluating teachers, and the point average in four criteria areas had to be at least 3.50. Twenty students attained this recognition. It is an honor which is the highest tribute our school awards to its very best students. Previous members of the National Honor Society were Kim Fogarty, Vicky Koenig, Mary Kay Huber, Terri Miller, Ger Eischens, and Margaret Fogarty. li - I I 6 ..- .ay 1 v -' V' 1 1 Y. l y C1954 f u I t v-L 1 l . lv .fs , l Q i K 'il' ' , -. 3 Lasg .tk Z 1N'e- 2 'sv 1 if? 4 . . - -,J 1 W' J t'!,'Z1Q g Q ll '21-1.

Their first performance was the annual Christ- mas concert. In March, they had a recital which was attended by band and choir members only. One week later, they went to contest at St. Peter and earned one star. For the schooI's enjoyment, the choir had the Ellis Street Singers from Mankato State University come perform for a lyceum. The concert choir finished the year with a spring concert entitled Old Fashion Love Song . Besides all the activities in the choir, the Madriguys and Gals found time to entertain at numerous other events. These events included performing at the FHA Banquet, church groups, the Boy Scout Banquet, and for the Jordan choir. One highlight was singing for the Ellis Street Singers at a contest at Mankato State. With all the great voices at B.P.H.S., the year was full of fun along with a little work!!

BANDS ENTERTAIN BELLE PLAINE The band was under the new direction of Mr. Irv Kuch this year. The band could be heard at all home football, boy's basketball, and even some girl's basketball games. In addition, they had two concerts. They entertained at the annual Christmas Concert and at the Sounds of Spring concert in May. The concert band earned one star in sight reading at the District contest at St. Peter. Flight Inc. started the year by playing for the Home- coming coronation. In March, they had a Let's Do It Again jazz concert with the Madriguys and Gals. That same month, they travelled to Sioux Falls for the second annual Jazz On The Upper Great Plains . The music department had two lyceums for the students body. The Belle Plaine groups presented a concert in honor of Music In Our Schools Day . The Sunbursts from Jackson visited our school and played some of their favorite songs. RIGHT: All of Margaret's practicing paid off when she starred at the District and Regional-State contests.

PHOTO CLUB IS KEPT VERY BUSY This year's photography club was made up of photographers from last year and new self directed research students from both first and second semes- ters of this year. They were responsible for taking and producing all the pictures for the Tigerian, Tiger Topics, Mr. Keohane's display case, and often times pictures for the Belle Plaine Herald. These students gave school time as well as many evenings to keep up with the demands for pictures. As you can see from the photos in this Tigerian, they did a great job.

Activities started in November with the initiation ceremonies being held at the home of Mrs. Wenisch, the advisor for the year. In December, the Quill and Scroll pub- lished a Christmas booklet -- the first booklet in at least four years. The activities for the year ended with the spring initiation ceremonies of the 1976-- 77 members. Let's hope they carry on the activities started this year.

EXCITEMENT ON THE GRIDIRON The football season was tough again. In the non-con- ference games, Mankato Loyola and Prior Lake proved too strong for us to get a victory. Injuries seemed to be the main factor in a disappointing season. Homecoming saw Belle Plaine lose a hard fought game to Norwood. The highlight of the season was the victory over Jordan as the Tigers shut out their rival opponent. Selected to the All-Conference team was Jon Malin. Pat Fogarty and Dan Sullivan were given honorable mention. Next year we have many returning Iettermen and are looking forward to an improved football season. Greg Keup stretches for the O'Brien pass.

Belle Plaine participated in three tournaments -- winning two of them. In their own invitational, they defeated Waconia, Lakeville, and Watertown. At the Mankato Loyola Invitational, Belle Plaine emerged in first place with the following champions: Andy Buesgens, Keith Siemon, Pat Fogarty, and Jon Malin. At District 13, the boys finished fifth of eleven teams. Jon Malin placed first, Steve Plonski took second, and Keith Sie- mon, Ron Savage, and Pat Fogarty all placed third. The boys wrestled well but were eliminated in the Region. Two wrestlers, Jon Malin and Keith Siemon, both advanced to the semi-finals and were within one match of the State Tournament but were defeated. The outlook for next year looks encouraging. Only three starters will be lost at graduation and the under- classmen look promising to fill the vacancies. LEFT: Coach Clymer gives a pep talk and introduces his wrestlers before the big night.

Despite a season record of four wins and eighteen losses, the Tiger cagers played some excellent basketball and suffered a number of heartbreaking defeats. Highlights of the season were the back to back victories over Mayer Lutheran and Arlington. Then there was the exciting parent's night victory over Cleveland and finally the victory over Faribault Deaf in the first round of the District Tourna- ment. Greg Keup was named All-Conference with Mark O'- Brien gaining honorable mention. The team lost five seniors but will have three regulars and a number of other fine ball players returning next season. xx, The bench cheers on the Tigers as they defeat the Cleveland Clippers.

With nine holes to fill from the 1975 graduates, the replacement took time and ef- fort. Highlights for the squad included Jeff Geisler win- ning the 100 yard dash in both the Conference and the District with an excellent time of 10.5 seconds. Shel- don Busch ran a 10:23.0 two mile in the Region which gave him fourth place and represented our only points scored in the Region meet. In the Tiger Relays, Belle Plaine finished fourth with 69 112. Le Center won it with 88. The Tigers didn't win a big meet this year but with the majority of the squad being junior high boys, Belle Plaine can look for good things in the future.

The team had strong hitters and a good defense and won three out of five pre-Sea- son games. But the Conference record was three wins and five losses. The highlight of the season was when the Tigers beat Montgomery, after trailing 6-1, going into the sixth inning. The other win was a 7-5 victory over Norwood. In the District, Belle Plaine lost to Le Center. Senior Brian Hennen was named to the All Conference team. Honorable mention went to Greg Keup. Even though the Tigers lost seven senior lettermen, Coach Houle is expecting an experienced team next year. RIGHT: Coach Houle keeps his eye on third base.

VOLLEYBALL SAW FGUR VICTORIES The girI's volleyball team came back for the second season with a four and eight conference record. Two big wins came as Belle Plaine defeated Jordan and Le Sueur. The Le Sueur match being the last one of the regular season and also being Parent's Night, made the win even more exciting. The team also trounced Norwood twice during conference action. The Tiger's All-Conference selection was senior Captain Jean Riesgraf. Jenny Heitkamp received honorable mention. Though losing five senior play- ers, Coach Wilhelmi is optimistic about a success- ful season next year. LEFT: Jenny Heitkamp spikes the ball as the Mont- gomery opponent prepares to block it.

PATRICK MICHAEL FOGARTY January 12, 1958 - June 7, 1976 One may ask how long is a lifetime. But our lives cannot be averaged. A lifetime is each second spent on earth to fulfill all dreams within reach and to accomplish all there is to be accomplished. This time for Pat Fogarty lasted only eighteen years but within these few short years, Pat did much to radiate smiles and spread laughter. We will remember him as an athlete. He was on the football and wrestling squads. His senior year, he was captain of the wrestling team and was named honorable mention to the all-conference wres- tling team. On June 7, Patrick Michael Fogarty was taken from this world, but his enthusiasm for life will long be remembered by all. BICENTENNIAL GRADUATION On May 30, 1976, at 2:00 p.m., the class of 1976 gath ered for the final time. They listened as Margaret Fo garty, Greg Keup, and Kim Fogarty made their speech es. The class memorial, a bicentennial flag, was pre sented by Carolyn Keup. Then the moment arrived, the presentation of the Class of 1976 and the diplomas The moment was brief but will be remembered for years. Yesterday is already a dream, and tomorrow is only a vision, but today well-lived makes every yesterday a dream of happiness and every tomorrow a vision of hope This was the motto for the Class of 1976. It is our hope that everyone will find whatever it may be that they are looking for in life. J L ,, --,...-,, .. . e,,.

It's also the year that the students played a softball game against the junior high faculty and lost. They also were the first ones to enjoy a day at Valley Fair.

They can handle anything from the distribution of net income statements to making the prom a success and building a great looking homecoming float. Even though juniors always have school on their minds, they realize the need to have a full social life -- What are you gonna do tonight? I don't know, but let's do somethin different tonight. Well, we could whip cream and toilet paper the cars. Na, raid a garden and put it in Keohane's yard. How about climbing the water tower and getting caught again. Na! We always do the same old things.

THE BOARD KEEPS B.P.H.S. ACTIVE One major change in the administration this year was the addition of Mr. Richard Clymer as Administrative Assistant in the Junior High School. Again this year, Mr. Keohane along with Mr. Clymer, extended an invitation to any interested parents to eat at the cafe- teria and view our schools. The Board very generously continued the mini course program. In the late winter, the administration organized six behavioral modifi- cation meetings which were attended by the entire faculty. Overall, the school year was again run very efficiently. RIGHT: Superintendent of Schools, Dr. John Bartholow. ag L. X-Ns -9 6, f 3 -ff!-I f kj!

TEACHING IN '76 . I REQUIRES TALENT This year the Tigerian staff is trying to characterize the faculty as individuals instead of groups in a spe- cific subject department. Our teachers in 1976 have expanded in subject areas, hobbies, interests, and extra-curricular activities. Todays typical teacher can take you through the Westward Expansion in class, advise you with Declam after school, and accompany you on an outing of skiing at Buck Hill in the evening. The faculty has a lot to offer if only you would take time to use it instead of abusing it. RIGHT: Mr. Perkins demonstrates another one of his many talents. VN, U Sv D N Q.

They are involved in seeing that the school is run efficient- ly. The secretaries, AV director, cooks, janitors, bus drivers, and lunch room servers deserve a thank you for a job well done. Another familiar face around school this year was that of Cathy VeIoso.Cathy, this year's Rotary exchange student, arrived here July 30,1975, from Zamboanga City, Philippines. During her stay in Belle Plaine, her host families were the Dale Pudlitzkes, Art Hubers, and the Roy Hendersons. She was an Honorary Princess for Homecoming, a member of the girI's basketball team, and an honorary member of the Quill and Scroll Society. We all hope Cathy's year in Belle Plaine was a happy one.

V' , -1 ,fl .. 12, fl As the 1975-1976 school year draws to a close and the yearbook awaits its delivery, we thought it fitting to make this volume of the Tigerian our salute to our founding fathers and the Bicentennial. We've come a long way. From the Atlantic in a sailboat to the moon in a spacecraft. This is no where better seen than in our curricula, teachers, and the students of the Belle Plaine Schools. Our special thanks go to our advisor, Mrs, Bevy Lou Wenisch , our editor, Eydie Hahn, the school photographers, and the students who helped until the yearbook was completed. Special thanks to Hix Studio of Montgomery, Josten's American Yearbook Company, and the business people who made this yearbook possible with their contributions. One final thought for us to dwell on: It's a fond farewell to the olden days and an enthusiastic hello to what lies ahead! s H Q1 WV Y',,v11 ' Tfjlzxlf' Xffjlwygf L ,p Qi J M, ffm ' f l 1 V.
