A Benilde High School 2501 Highway 100 South St. Louis Park, Minnesota Editor: Michael J. O'Keefe Associate Editor: Lorry Guyer Copy Editor: Peter Cermak Photo Editor: Richard V. Novock POPE JOHN XXIII At approximately the same time that Benilde Seniors were looking forward to a new life outside of high school, the world was saddened by the news that Pope John had also gone on to a new life outside of our world. This pope, and the Ecumenical Council he established, will always be remembered by students of Benilde. 2 ARCHBISHOP LEO BINZ A second religious leader under which the Class of 1963 graduated was the Most Reverend Leo Binz, Archbishop of Saint Paul. This, however, was Bishop Binz' first year in office rather than his lost. We feel certain that Benilde students will serve His Excellency as well as he has served the people of our diocese. 3 Faculty Certainly Benilde would not be Benilde without the people it has teaching its students. The faculty of Benilde covers o wide ronge: Several are still in their middle twenties, others have enjoyed life for over a half century. We have brothers just out of college, and a lay teocher with his doctorate. Three faculty members have been teaching Brothers for over twenty-five years. This diversity, plus the fact that all these people hove one specified objective: to teach boys as much and as well os possible, helps to make Benilde the great school that it is. Not to be forgotten, however, are those faculty members who are not direct participants in the classroom, but nevertheless play an integral part in school life: The director, who supervises the entire community and school operation,- the principal, who handles all academic tasks,- the assistant principal, who has various duties including the not so pleasant task of discipline; the secretaries, the maintenance crew, the cafeteria director and cooks, the librarian, the chaplain, and all others who work behind the scenes to insure that Benilde will remain the best possible institution that its students could possibly attend. To these and everyone in any way connected with Benilde we owe a debt of gratitude which we can repay only by becoming the kind of citizen that would make anyone proud to say he was a student at Benilde. Brother Martin, Director What makes a job difficult? When Brother Martin assumed the job as director of Benilde High School, he found that the difficulty of this position lay not only in the functional responsibilities involved but also in the reputation associated with the position. Indeed, much was expected of the man who was to carry the responsibility of the director of Benilde. The policy at Benilde was to remain the same as in the past, according to the new director. Yet the fact re- mained that Benilde was due for a change in administration and attitude. The school had outgrown its enchantment for Benilde Firsts and now sought for ways to continue and improve those precedents that had been established. Brother Martin's efficient and dedicated efforts for the sake of Benilde and its objectives have been a constant encouragement to those who wish to see Benilde's spirit perpetuated though her form may change. 6 Principal For any organization to run smoothly and efficiently there must be capable and determined leaders. Benilde High School proves to be no exception to this rule. The task to regulate all academic functions at Benilde rests upon Brother Justin. This is Brother's first year at Benilde and already he has proven to be an invaluable asset to the school's success. His unselfish attitude towards his duties as principal account for his being the real impetus behind school spirit and school life in general. Assistant Principal No school is complete without a person to enforce the necessary disciplinary measures as the situation requires. Assuming the important position of Dean of Discipline at Benilde is Brother J. Patrick. However, Brother's duties are not confined to discipline alone. He keeps all the records of student attendance, is the Athletic director for the school and also has undertaken the job as Ticket Drive Chairman. Undoubtedly these duties require an unselfish and determined person to be efficiently handled. In this regard Brother has done a tremendous job. 7 Religion The ottitude each person has concerning- his relationship with God, and others will judge his actions in every day life. This idea receives no greater emphasis than in Benilde High School under the supervision of Brother Mark, Brother George and Brother Walter. All three have worked consistently hard throughout the entire year to fulfill the great responsibility which they had. The main task is to teach them their duties as a Catholic and to integrate these teachings in their daily lives. BROTHER MARK: Religion II. Latin I, CCD moderator. Religion Dept. hood. BROTHER GEORGE: Religion I. English I, Cross Country and Track coach, Froshman Bosketball coach. BROTHER WAITER: World History, Religion I and II, Booksforo moderator. 8 Guidance The newest addition to the guidance department is Father O'Connor. He came to Benilde last year to take the place of Father Knapp who hod to go to St. Louis. Father O'Connor is always ovailable to help out anyone, ot any time and in any place. Father has been here on the retreat days. First Fridays, and any time he may be needed. To add to his busy schedule he has been at school to hear confessions, talk over vocations, or just a friendly chat. We all hope that Father O'Connor will be in our guidance department next year and many years after. Not one student at Benilde can mistake the ready smile and willingness to assist of Mr. R. J. Eddy, the Guidance Counselor. It is his task to keep an accurate record of all aptitude tests that every student at Benilde takes, so that he might use it for further reference. Those especially helped by his work are seniors. Mr. Eddy's job here is to advise those boys who are unsure of their future life as to the vocation best suited for them. We can all attest to the fact that Mr. Eddy is definitely an irreplaceable asset to Benilde High School. 9 Library BROTHER JOEL: librarian. Accounting, Typing, Trock Moderator, Basketball Moderator, Sports Publicity. One of the criteria for the caliber of a good high school is an up-to-date and well equipped library. Anyone who has ever used the library for references or for recreation will testify to its quality and compactness. The man behind the scene is Brother Joel, the person responsible for the entire growth and advancement of the Library. Brother Joel has consistently kept an eagle eye look out for any new books which will be of use to the students. 10 English All of our learning ond all our experience, in short, all of our knowledge would be of little use if we could not express if to others. Knowledge is expressed through language and in this country the language used is English. These two obvious facts are what make the study of English so important. English, of course, is more than rules of grammar and vocabulary. It is more an expression of one's personality when he speaks. If one lacks the knowledge to properly express himself, then he will present a false picture of himself to others. When applying for a job or admission to a college or whenever proper expression and correct understanding are important, Benilde students can be grateful for the guidance they have received from Brother Hilary, Brother Arthur, Brother Robert, Brother Bruno, Mr. Duffy, Mr. O'Leary, and Mr. Murphy of Benilde's English Department.

In our increasingly complex society, a knowledge of mathematics has changed from a luxury to a vital necessity. At Benilde, the Math department has given the students a thorough preparation for the mathematics they will need in their future lives or higher education. This year the math department took another step forward in revitalizing the progrom to the new methods of mathematical learning which is the beginning of a new field of mathematics. Headed by Brother Raymond, the department includes Brother Amedy, Brother Arnold, Mr. O'Reilly, Mr. Olson, and Mr. Carlson. BROTHER LEO RAYMONO: Religion IV. Physic .

This year Mr. Haben heads the Social Studies Department, as successor to Brother Denis. Brother Kevin, Mr. Joranger and Mr. Deinema share this department. Currently, World History is taught to freshmen,- American History is taught to juniors; and Sociology is taught to the graduating class. These three subjects are compulsory academic pursuits. The emphasis of these classes is not to learn facts only, but to associate with past events reasons why things have happened as they have. MR. WILLIAM HABEN: Social Studies IV.

Language The Language Department is divided into two sections: the classical language, which is taught only in the classroom; and the modern language, or Spanish, which is taught in the Language Lab as well os in the classroom. Through study of the classical language a student broadens his thinking powers in addition to increasing his understanding of all languages. Since Latin is primarily a language to be read or written, normal classroom methods are used. The advantage of a modern language lies in the ability to speak and understand the spoken word. The modern approach in teaching such a language consists of familiarization, oral pronunciation and association of sounds with meanings. A combination of classroom techniques and laboratory methods are used to accomplish these ends. 18 BROTHER ALAN BENEDICT: Religion I, Spon-ish I, World History, Freshman Football Moderator. MR. JAMES DALYi Spanish. Bond. 19 Business The Business Department of Benilde is playing o vital role in developing the business men of the future. The program starts in the freshman year with General Business taught by Brother Luke. With this as a base the student will go on to Business Math in his junior year taught by Brother Patrick and Brother Augustine. The culmination of the business course will come in the Senior year with one of several courses. For those who did not take Business Math in their junior year. Brother Luke will teach them. Bookkeeping, along with Business Law Economics, is taught by Brother Augustine. Modern Economics is presented by Brother Bernard, the head of the Business Deportment.

This goal has been achieved through the teaching of Brother Theodore, Mr. Short and Brother Steven. Courses are offered in General Science, as well as Biology, Chemistry and Physics. Both o practical and theoretical knowledge of these subjects is acquired through laboratory and class work. As a result, the product of the science departments is a student body who have an understanding of the science vital to our world today. AAR.

HENRY STEPHEN: Biology Physical Education Though not claiming to advocate fifty-mile hikes Benilde does heed President Kennedy's plea for youth physical fitness. Realizing that both the mind and the body must be well developed in order to produce good results, Mr. Karbo, Mr. Reichal and Mr. Charbonneau, have set up a stiff program in physical education. Those that take part in this program, freshmen and sophomores, will testify to the fact that they feel like a new and perhaps temporarily broken down person after a single day has been completed. MR.

Office The beauty of our school can be credited to the very hard work of Brother Louis and Mr. William Holmes. Together they have done very much to keep Benilde olways looking like it wos just built. Brother Louis also is in charge of the Maintenance Department and the Benilde boys who help clean after school and during the summer. Top: Mrj. Koch.- Bottom: Mry Blazing. May I help you? O wonder how many times a day a Benilde student hears these words as he enters into the academic office. But more important than the words are the actions and service which back them up. Neither Mrs. Koch nor Mrs. Blazing ever seem too busy to answer a question, fill out a form or perform any other service when colled on. Benilde students owe much to this championship team. 24 Under the leadership, but not cooking, of Brother Lucian, the cafeteria has proved to be one of the most popular activities at Benilde. Perhaps this is to be expected, since there is no place else to eat. Nevertheless, Brother has done a wonderful job during his stay at Benilde in providing the best possible meals for the students at the lowest possible cost. Another 35 j Cooks Another plato to woih. Activities Studies alone do not moke a student a well rounded individual. This situation, however, is taken care of by the many extra-curricular activities offered to students at Benilde. In addition to the immense variety of sports, which will be presented in another section of this book, many different types of non-sports activities are offered to the students; enough to satisfy even the most discriminating young man. For those religiously inclined the Legion of Mary is always ready to welcome new members. Other city religious groups are also available, though not connected directly with the school. For those interested in intellectual stimulation, or who simply like to talk, the Shield Club offers a chance to do both. The Student Council and its many activities ore available to the boy who wants to be of help to the school, learn about government, or simply have more than the average person to say about what goes on in his school. Anyone interested in publications work need go no further than the Lancer or Benilden offices. The musically inclined have the Glee Club and Band, while those with a desire to hove their talents appreciated by a larger audience will be given an opportunity to display their giftedness as a member of the drama club. The students of Benilde are very fortunate to have as great an opportunity for extra-curriculars as they do. Fathers’ Club Student pictured while moking use of various Fathers' and Friends' Club projects. The Benilde Fathers' Club is one of the -most helpful organizations connected with the school while at the same time it is one of the least appreciated. The desire of these fathers is to make Benilde the birthplace of high Christian ideals by aiding the teachers in every ' way possible. They have contributed their valuable time, effort and equipment to our school. One of the most beneficial to the students at Benilde is the Educational Fund, it is a fund mode up of the dues paid at the monthly meetings by the members. It is used for the payment of the remaining portion of the high school education for students whose fathers may die. Under the leadership of the President, Mr. Ray Korpi, and Moderator, Brother Martin, the Fathers' Club has nearly finished the football stadium and quarter mile track to add to the previous projects such as the present football field, the hockey rinks, and the warming house. All of these projects sponsored by the Fathers' Club has enabled Benilde to provide a better education for the young men that attend. Our gratitude to these wonderful men seems very insignificant to the great job that they have done for each student at Benilde. It's about time we extend to them a belated but very grateful.

It seems that everything that the club does is a tremendous success. B tMew, B uM w Left to Right: EDITOR IN CHIEF: MICHAEL J. O'KEEFE, MODERATOR: MR. JOHN R. DEINEMA, PHOTOGRAPHY EDITOR: RICHARD V. NOVACK. These are the editors of the 1963 Benilden. They are the ones responsible for over ninety-five per cent of the work done on the yearbook. The Editors feel that this year Benilde High School really has a Yearbook to be proud of. We would like to thank our moderator, Mr. Jack Deinema for his PATIENCE.

The Benilden this year had a rather late start when the present staff took over publication task at the end of April. It had been decided previously that the book would appear in September of 1963 so that graduation, baseball, the State Basketball Tournament, etc. could all be incorporated in the publication. In addition, you will note that this year's Benilden has 32 more pages than previous years', for the same price. The editor would like to extend special thanks to Dick Novack and Larry Guyer, who, with help from Pete Cermak and Tim Regan composed virtually the entire working staff of this year's Benilden. 33 Left to Right, KNEELING: Photo Editor ; Dick Novock ond Lee Cog-ley FRONT ROW: Fourth Poge,- Rich Rosow; Sport , Pete Cermok; Co.-editor, Mike Sheo, Moderotor.

When one speaks about the school newspaper, he shouldn't forget to mention the Lancer. Although the Lancer has been frequently refered to as a storybook magazine instead of the newspaper, those who put together the Lancer know differently. The editors congregate monthly in the Lancer news room to give out, collect, rework, refine, and put together the various components of the Lancer. No one really knows or really appreciates the amount of work that is put out by the editors so that the students can read and enjoy the product of their frantic labors. This past year showed the excellent quality of our newspaper when it took the third place prize for photography in the state with a beautiful color photo furnished by the photo club. We wish to pay special tribute to Mr. Robert J. Eddy for his untiring efforts in the post few years of the Lancers' young existence. From Mr. Eddy, My constant insistence was, always that this is a paper by and for the students, and I was simply going to moderate it, NOT PUT IT TOGETHER. I think the students have done well by the Lancer, and its accomplishments are, THEIRS, solely. Thank you, Mr. Eddy for your Wonderful Job.

The Student Council in its first year hos done surprisingly well considering the fact that all year we were praying for the Success of the Council. It has done very much in organizing the school and supporting activities such as the Christmas Decoration Contest, The Food Basket Drive, The Christmas Party, The Student Loan Association, The Paperbock Bookstore, and organized handling of the Audio-Visual equipment. The Council itself is made up of o General Assembly and Executive Board. The General Assembly or main body is composed of two delegates from each homeroom. The Executive Board is the administrative part and contains five senior officers and four juniors who take charge of the various committees. The job of the Student Council is to teach good citizenship and the practices of governmental administration to the students. It is to serve the students and provide a voice for their views and advise the administration of their problems. The success of the Council depends on the cooperation of all the students and faculty. When each person does his job and cooperates to the fullest extent our school could hove one of the greatest student councils in the state of Minnesota. 38 Student Council C UMJC PlO$Mfo Scholarship Program Student Loon And Paperback Bookstore Christmas Food Baskets ond Decorations Photo Club FRONT ROW, Loft to Right' Mike O'Keefe; Proi.

PHOTO The Benilde Photo Club under the direction of Mr. Monty Carlson has proved itself to be one of the most valuable organizations in the school. Although it is only a young organization it has the quality of an experienced one. Through the guidance and hard work of Lee Cagley and Dick Novock; the Photo Club has built a good reputation. The club has a few outstanding members such as Tom Meyer, who is official photographer for the Mpls. Antique Car Club, and who won the Photo Club Award for outstanding achievement in the past year. Greg Stszemp and Paul Newman have shown remarkable promise for the future. Konstantine Karpovs has won a trophy for his bizarre c and white photography. Lee Cagley a mainstay of the organization has won a prize for sports photography. Dick Novack has won prizes and trophies for his night picture of the Capital, and other color shots including the violin photo which won the overall color prize. The service which this organization has provided the Lancer, Benilden, and the other numerous organizations of the school too much to even attempt to mention. We thank them for a job well done.

The Art and Poster Club is one of the varied extracurricular organizations that is open to all students at Benilde. The club has changed from a short of brushes, short of paper, and short of paints poster organization to one that can make neat hand painted posters and that charges for its work so it can support itself. While it may need some improvement, it is still doing a good job. - J SO fefOMQ = co i ✓ N TORWROW 1 e ruoh THP e n BfNdOe St uocut C lOAM A tow 1 s INr«Ric$T n sr r | i-mm 41 Shield Club BACK ROW: Bob Springer, Mike Bailey.

The Benilde Glee Club presented the picture of a constantly traveling group. During the First half of the year they toured many neighboring schools and churches presenting concerts. At Christmas time Christmas Concerts flourished including: A concert for the remaining students of Benilde (the Glee Club consists of approximately thirteen per cent of the student body), a concert for the parents, friends, and others interested in Benilde, and a special concert for the Sisters in the schools in the area. There was supposed to have been a concert at Southdale but that had to be cancelled because Brothers Robert and Hilary, Mr. Murphy and a majority of the members of the Club had colds. The Spring of the year saw a few more concerts (such as at St. Margarets) but mostly practice for the final concerts of the year. The Finale of the year came with a concert at St. Mary's College in Winona, a joint Concert, two nights running in the Benilde Great Hall, with the St. Margaret's Glee Club conducted by Sister Mary Vianney and the Regina Senior Chorus conducted by Sister Mary Kateri. Each of the Glee Clubs sang separately (Benilde occupied three-fourths of the time) and the combined chorus was conducted by Bro. Robert Daryl, and accompanied by Bro. Hilary and Mr. Murphy. Five Combined Songs were sung, they are listed on the opposite page along with some other outstanding numbers of the program. On the following pages you will find some information on the Chicago trip made after the Anthem for Spring Concert.

The Chicago Trip was probably the most interesting venture of the entire season as far as the Glee Club is concerned. While down in Chi-town (as Mike Myslajek calls it) all members stayed with one of the Chicago boys. According to the members descriptions the accommodations were all right. Previous to the arrival of our group there had been a list of the places not to go passed out (South Side, The Follies, South State St. etc.) Those are the places most every one went first. Many of the fellows had arranged dates for their visitors for just about each night. (Comments were varied on these). As far as the Concert goes, it didn't compare with ours at home. Comparing our parts in the program and theirs, Bros. Hilary and Robert both soy we far surpassed them. 50 W 0 Littfo BCfc ofr Wtn ubToO' Mony of our boys went to this church.

Under the leadership of Brother Lucian, it has enlarged and played at various occasions. The band is divided into three parts: The Regular band, the Dance band, and the Beginners band. This year the band performed at many concerts and events at places like. Immaculate Heart of Mary parish. St. Austin's, St. John's in Hopkins, and Annunciation parish, combined with the Spring Concert at Benilde. They also played at many of the football and basketball games, including the State Tournament.

For the past three years Benilde students have been teaching in the parishes they belong to and each and every one after the First class can not help but feel that sensation of warmth, joy and satisfaction of helping God's little children on the road to Heaven. 57 FRENCHY DESTRY .

Guided by the direction of Brother Harold Andrew, the players brought forth the third musical in the history of Benilde. Led by the acting of John Korpi and the singing of Mary McMahon, the cast portrayed the attempts of Tom Destry to bring low ond order to the wild west town of Bottleneck. Hindering him his work was Kent, his gang, and Destr s wife to be, Frenchy. When Kent ond his gang killed old sheriff Keogh, because how else could I get him to die, Wash called Tom Destry to Bottleneck to be the new deputy sheriff. Tom, who refused to carry a gun, (remembering that his father was shot from behind) showed the people of Bottleneck that he was well able to take core of himself by stopping the attempts of Kent's gang to crash the party welcoming Tom to Bottleneck. Later, Wash following Tom's advice, followed Gyp Watson and arrested him when he found him with the body of Sheriff Keogh. Kent, along with the two remaining members of his gang, tried to help Gyp escape from the joil while Frenchy reluctantly decoyed Tom at her house. Wash was shot and died in the arms of his wife Chloe, promising her that from then on he would be like her first husband. That night in the saloon, Frenchy turned completely against Kent by killing one of his gang. Kent made a Final attempt to get out of town but was killed by Bugs Watson. Law and order prevailed and Tom got his girl. 58 This fop picture 1$ one of the finest examples of all characters on stoge In charoctcr and rooctlog to stage situations.

Football can get a bit rough at timos 62 Does that camera really work? Homecoming Dance One of the high points of the school year, especially the fall, is the Homecoming festivities. The first port is the football game,- this year we defeated Hill High School by the score of 21 to 0 in an excellent display of the talent on this year's football team. The stadium was decorated by the various floats and the Queen Candidates; Jan Henrickson, Carol Kornovich, Barb Bofenkamp, Jill Jardine, and Rita Finne. The prize of the best float went to room 107, whose advisor is Brother Andrew, for their good decorating and ingenious ideas. Brother Andrew also had very much to do with the dance and Coronation ceremonies held on November 10. The Coronation Ball was brought to on exciting climax by the crowning of 1963 Homecoming Queen, who was Rita Finne. Rita will reign until next year and will have the place of honor at the homecoming festivities next fall. 63 Red Knight’s Ball Good music and beautiful decorations highlighted the 1963 Knights' Ball. Brother Andrew and his crew did an excellent job with the decorations, while the Student Council did a good job of organizing the event for the first time. Clark Anderson's Band provided the music for the night. The high point of the evening was the crowning of Princess Barb Anderson out of Peggy Anderson, Mary McMahon, Sherry O'Donnell, and Pat Kadadec, who were the candidates representing the six junior homerooms. Barb was crowned midway in the evening at an impressive ceremony by last year's princess Carol Hallus-ka. The St. Thomas Drill team also added to the entertainment. Carol Halluska crowns Barb Anderson os Junior Princess. 64 Junior-Senior Prom A TtuHMtM l oj Aj Ok Nfgtife Ancient Persia was reborn in the Ben-ilde Great Hall on May 17. The event of A Thousand and One Nights was presented by the Student Council as this year's Junior-Senior Prom. Brother Andrew was responsible for this wonderful atmosphere of Persia. With Brother's ideas and the skilled hands of the people working on the Council project, the Great Hall was converted into a Persian Paradise. Upon entering the silken doorway, each couple was confronted with a Persian courtyard illuminated by lights made to resemble stars. In the midst of the yard stood an exquisitely decorated fountain surrounded by palms. Nomadic Arabs strolled about in the traditional robes while pleasant music was provided by the Franklinites. 65 Underclassmen Though many would not like to admit it, every Senior was once a Freshman. The reverse of this is also true: most Freshmen will eventually become Seniors. The three underclassman divisions of Benilde are not widely separated with regard to age, but in other ways they are miles apart. A Benilde student comes as a Freshman, wide-eyed with the enchantment of finally getting into high school. He soon learns that the main purpose of a school is study, and he had better think of this before anything else. By the time he is a Sophomore, the student may feel that he knows all there is to know. He soon learns differently. When finally finished with geometry, Marc Anthony's funeral oration, and frog dissection, the Benilde Junior is ready to become acquainted with the fact that education is not merely a matter of grades and years, but a continuing process that will last the rest of his life. During his underclassman days, a Benilde student grows not only mentally but physically as well. In phys-ed class he becomes proficient at games and exercises that he never knew existed before. Soon he is outgrowing his old clothes as well as his old Hardy Boy books. Direct participation and connection with his religion helps the Benilde student grow a third way too. Spiritually, many Benilde graduates are older and more advanced than many adults. Thus, during his undergraduate years, the boy becomes a man in three ways, and this is his real reason for going to a Catholic school. Junior Department 146 This year, homeroom 146 can honestly say they have accomplished many tasks throughout the year. Credited to this is the fact that homeroom 146 has always given 100% in class participation and homeroom spirit. To start off the year we had a car wash in which the whole class participated giving our treasury fifty-six dollars. In activities we have Tom Bartoletti in Varsity football, Jim Flick and Bill leiendecker in Varsity basketball, Jeff Grosscup, Tim Mahor, and John Twomey in Track, Joe LaBat and Pete Krieser in Shield Club, Chorles Lynch in Varsity golf, and John Twomey working on our Student Council. Plus we have many others in drama. Glee Club, intramurals and other activities. So, as you can see, our class is striving for the good of our school. Under the leadership of our class officers: Jim Flick, Tom McRoberts, John Linnihan, Tom Bartolletfi, and Joe LaBat and Brother Amedy, we feel our class is tops. 1 S Advisory 136 has distinguished itself this year by its many contributions to Benilde. We have an enviable record in the mission collections, having captured both the school and Junior Class banners throughout the school year. The generosity of the class does not end here, however, its members have also participated in many other school activities. Two members are on the executive board of the student council. Our teams placed high in the intramural program and won the basketball championship. Half of the class has made the honor roll four or more times so far this year. The class has tried to improve its moral tone by supporting First Friday services and devotions to the Blessed Virgin, one member of the class is studying to be a Christian Brother. All in all, we have taken a step forward this year under the leadership of Brother Theodore — a step we shall proudly recall in future years. 137 Homeroom 137 is beyond doubt one of the finest homerooms in the school. It is well represented throughout the various athletics and extra-curricular activities at Benilde. It has had many honors bestowed upon it. The class officers are: Gregory Simmer, Robert Maher, John Knight, James Kornstedt, and Lawrence Scherer. Our room has shown good spirit this year by coming in second in the mission collections in the school. We also earned a holiday by reaching 100% in the car raffle. Two of the young men in our room were bestowed honors: Robert Maher, National Honor Society member,- and Thomas Ambrose, awarded as the Best Actor of the Drama Club. Also we were well represented in sports: Football — Mike Perry, Ken Waldron, John Knight, Mike Welch; Basketball — Mike Perry, Robert Moher, Jeff Arnold; Hockey — Ken Waldron; Baseball — Robert Maher, Bill Gorrill; Swimming — Joe Honrehan; Track — Peter Gretz, Mike Knapp, Dan Bladoe; Wrestling — Larry Scherer. Also homeroom 137 represents three-fourths of the golf team,- Jim Selenski, Jeff Arnold, and Mike Terry. Many are in the Glee Club, Contact, and Drama Club. 68 Thornes Adcox Thomos Aherns Richard Akins Thomas Ambrose Martin Andresen Richard Antone Jeff Arnold Robert Babbitt Jerry Babcock Michoel Bailey Carson Baker Potrlck Barnett Tom Bartolettl Donald Batteen Dennis Beltrand Michael Bertrand James Blockey Pctor Blake Daniel Bloodow Roger Bolando Kenneth Booth William Borchert Bernard Bottemo Jomes Boucher John Bowor Donold Brager Lester Brener John Broback William Burks Thomas Burns Thomas Burt Michael Bykowski Lee Cogley Richard Caron Jim Corufel Robert Cassidy Craig Christensen Marty Christiansen David Clark Gene Coffman 69 Timothy Collins Gaylord Conser Patrick Coury John Curtis Ronald Cybyske James DeGonda Michael Dehulery Stephen Dlsch John Dole Patrick Doyle Daniel Durose Walter Eostmon David Eckman Michael Edwards Thomos Effertz Lawrence Etzel Richard Evans Wllliom Evans Jon Exworthy Don Fagot Edward Fishor Gene Fisher John Fitzgorald Mike Fitzpatrick James Flick Steven Forrey Paul Frank Who put the starch in this shirt? 70 Thomos Fulton Patrick Grahom Richard Gorlkk Robert Grotton Michoel Geyer John Gretz William Gilbreath Jeff Groucup James Gonley Ben Gudden William Gorrilll John Guider Stan Gulczinski John Hartig James Hahn Jim Haymaker Rodger Hall Robert Heath Joseph Honrehan Bill Heinrich Timothy Hansen Tim Helgesen Charles Hanson John Hersmon Dan Hertsgaard John Hungelmon Dovid Hertsgoard George Jensen Timothy Hey man John Jeppesen Karl Hipp Richard Jewett Walter Hirschey Michael Johnson John Holohan Thomos Juergens 71 Charles Lynch John MocKensie John Mognoy Robert Mahar Gerold Moher Timothy Maher Dan McGellan Mark McGee Thomas McRoberts John Meyman Bruce Miller Robert Miller Greg Mlekoday Thomas Mueller Kolth Kadlec Roger Kenealy George Korgle Kevin Keymer Jim Karnstedt James Kimbell George Karpous Michael Knapp Bob Kotchmork John Knight Robert Keeley Stephen Krakau Robert Kemper Donald Kreber Petor Kriescr John Unnihan Michael Kuhn Rick liszewski Joseph La Bat Michael Lotzer Michoel Lompe Poul Lotzer Richard Lang Thomas Lucas Dennis Lee James Lundin Bill Leiendecker John Lydiord Thomas Murphy Doug Nimerfroh Robert Nolon Bert Notermann Michael Nygoord Randy Okhefske Richard Pancratz Desmond Pratt Stove Prxymus Nicholas Punko Richard Rakow David Router James Richardson Thank you, subjects.

This is Halsey Diegel with your play-by-play report of tonight's game.1 74 Sophomore Department 124 Homeroom 124 is under the direction of Brother Mark. As our class officer! we elected. Bob Dunn, John Word, Terry Blaylock, and Steve Sarkis. Homeroom 124 was octive in intramurals such os. broom hockey, basketball, and volleyball. Tom Quinn was a varsity wrestler, and Rick Johnson on the Varsity Hockey team. We had many members on B squod wrestling, hockey, bosketball, football, and swimming. About 50% of our room has mode the honor roll and Dan Doyle is now of Glencoe. In the car drive we mode 125% ond John Kodak was our top salesman.

Homeroom 124 has worked hord and accomplished a lot this year at 8enllde. 133 Homeroom 133 has shown its leadership during the post year in scholastics, athletics, and extra-currlculars. Under the direction of Mr. O'Leary, we have shown such achievements as high ratings in the mission collections and the only sophomore float In the Homecoming Parade. In athletics we have ranked high in intramural competition. Many of our students are odive in Student Council activities. Also, we have shown honor roll consistency on the part of many students. I I Though, to some, it may seem that homeroom 141 fs not the greatest homeroom in the school; we offer the following to prove it has an exceptional amount of participation and school spirit. We have finished second in broomball, and did well in other intro-murols. We wore over the 125% mark In the school drive and also done well in the mission collections. We have many In extra-cur-riculars and on the honor roll. Many are In such activities as Lancer, Legion of Mary, ond Glee Club. We were also the first to hove on outdoor hockey-broomball night insteod of a gym night. This Is just port of our room's unmatched record. Since one con’t do justice to it, in such a small spoce, it it necessary to have o student from 141 describe it to get a full picture of whot It is really like. 13 Class 112 has always been the vanguard of the Red Knight's tradition. Our students ore active In all that it Benllde. The clou officers hove mode a strong effort to unite the students, and the delegates to the Student Council hove mode o strong representation to the rest of the school. Many students have received rewords for achievement in athletics and other extracurricular activities. Intromural teams have placed high in all. Last but not least, they hove supported the missions well. We hope to repay Benilde for our fine education. 109 We the students of 109, under Mr. O'Rleley, are convinced that ours is the best homeroom ever organized in Benilde. 109 was one of tho two homerooms to gain on extra holiday due to our superior work in the drive. Ron Wilcox, a very able athlete, showed his talents in 'B' squod football, and varsity wrestling and boseball. John Solan ond Bob Hyett gained minor letters due to their football capabilities.

One of our delegates was second In the essay contest. Through our meetings we adopted a class in South America, pushed the miuions, and set up a Saturday clots for failing students. We also did very well in the clothing drive with six barrels. One of our dau motes from 130 is on exchange student from South Americo, Jose Borbato. We owe all our accomplishments to Brother Ignatius who led and organized us, to him we give our thanks. 13 5 125 Is one of the more active homerooms in the sophomore department.

Our treasury had financed two gym nights for the enjoyment of the members of the room. We have many players on the B squad activities and several on the varsity hockey and several on the varsity swimming. We have had on average of seven boys on the each time this year. 1 13 We the students of 113, have every reason to be proud of ourselves this post year. Not to be outdone by any other homeroom, we have consistently had over half our room on the honor roll. We did quite well In the ticket sales and the clothing drive. We were consistently near the top in all intramurals, and we have had a wide participation in school sports. Because of these qualifies developed under Brother Walter, we feel we have the best room at Benilde. 135 Homeroom 135, under the excellent guidance of Mr. Murphy, has averaged one half of its boys on the honor roll each marking period. We took first place In the school ticket drive by going over the 1,000 dollar mark. We did extremely well in our Christmas baskets for the poor. Our president, John Keiser, is in charge of the Audio-Visual equipment of the school. We won the football intramural championship and placed first in the Freshmen Track Meet. Every boy in our room is involved in extra-curricular activities, some even participated in four different sports. We also have members in the Glee Club. We are proud to be considered by all as the Number Homeroom at Benilde. 115 Our homeroom has functioned well this year under the direction of Brother A. Benedict and officers; Ted Kenedy, Gene Flick, Joe Wolf, and John Zerrul. We have participated in all inframurals well as drives and collections for the missions. 115 supplied the Freshman teams with: Flick, Dahmen, Klucas, — Football; Rainville — Basketball; Kenedy, Els-en — Hockey. 1 32 Benilde can be very proud of homeroom 132. This room has achieved their good in all tests put before them. Our OFFICERS ARE: Richard Jurek, Bill Bailly, Greg Hanson, and Jon Bushard. We have participated in intramural football, broom hockey, volleyball, and basketball. We have a very good scholastic record; all but a few have mode the honor roll at least once. Boys with outstanding records are Bushard, Morgan, Patrios, Theil, Taylor, Kubay, Stanton, Segren, Sherman, Se-bald, and Faue. 1 23 Our homeroom, 123, has been able to maintain a high scholastic level while at the same time rating high in intramurals and other activities. Our advisor, Brother Robert and officers: Mike Shaffer, Bruce Wright, Jim Brobock, and Terry Mahoney, has been able to lead us to numerous achievements. Among them are first places in football and broom-hockey and Christmas decorations. We sold over 25 tickets per man to the game with Cretin, and our room was the first to publish a Latin and Supplementary newspapers! A large number of our boys have participated in extra-curriculars, especially the Glee Club. We of 123 are proud to have such a high record and are sure that we will improve it as Sophomores. 124 'Welcome to Benilde, young men of the class of '66 ' was the introduction “we” received from Brother Luke, advisor of homeroom 134. That was the beginning of our freshman year at Benilde. The first thing we did was collect money for a class treasury. A few weeks after this we elected class officers. After they were elected we held a class meeting in which we set up a parliamentary procedure for future meetings. We also had campaigns, like auctions, and raffles, to raise money to give to the missions. We won the Mission Banner thirteen times because of this. We took sixteen dollars out of our treasury to buy a room statue. During the ticket drive we earned 114% of our quota giving us a holiday and raising the school total. We have participated in all intermurals set up by the Student Council. Even though we didn't do very well. Room 134 has participated in all freshmen sports and under Brother Luke's excellent guidance we hope we have made some contribution to our school in return for a rewarding year.

Through the physical education classes, the student is given an opportunity to develop his abilities in the various sports and he is introduced to new ones. For the boy who takes an interest in a particular sport, and would like to specialize in it, the great variety of inferscholastic and intra-mural sports offered to the student gives him an opportunity to participate in practically anything. More important than this, however, the wide latitude of participation within most single sports gives every student an opportunity to participate, no matter what his ability might be in that particular activity. Despite the obvious problems presented by encouraging all students to participate in sports, Benilde has, at one time or another, provided champions in practically every sport; and has proven by their performance against public and private schools alike that the Central Catholic Conference is no pushover os any people would have the public believe. Through the more popular sports such as football and basketball, the Red Knight teams have brought the school to the attention of the public, but it is through all sports and all degrees of participation that the interests of the students are best served.

A lost conference championship, a victory in the regional game, threo consecutive wins in the stote tourney — these and many other things added up gave Benilde its first basketball crown. Going into tho rogional game, the Red Knights had lost two consecutive gomes to Do La Salle. Benilde come on strong, however, and gained the tournomcnt through tho front door os the Region 4 champs. Winona Cotter was the first team drown as on opponent by the Knights. Benilde defeated the Ramblers in the fastest moving, runningcst gome to be witnessed during the tourney. Led by Smith, Creighton, Warron, and leiendeckcr, 19,16.11, and 10 points respectively), the Red Knights tallied sixty points to Winona's forty-nine. This victory advanced them into the semi-final game with De La Salle. Tho De game was the rubber match of the entiro tourney. Benilde grabbed a 6—5 first quarter lead and mode it stick. Tho hero of the gome was guard Ron Warren who is a senior. Ron made six freo throws In the fourth quarter. These, plus 13 points by Smith and 9 by Creighton, enabled the Knights to starve off a late De rally and advance into the final game against St. Thomas. If Benildo thought St. Thomas wos to be an easy team, they were badly mistokon. Tho Red Knights jumped off to on 11—4 first quarter lead, but tho Tommies came back strongly to trail only 19—17 at the half. They went ahead in the third quarter but trailed at the end of it 27—25. The fourth quarter found both teams playing a very deliberate style of ball. Benilde, aided by two free throws from oiling Bill Leien-decker, hung on to win the defensive contest and gain its first state championship by the score of 32-—29. Steve Smith and Rick Creighton wcro honored by being chosen for the oil tournament team. Smith was furthor honored by boing selected as the most valuable player. Jim Flick, In addition to Smith and Creighton, had previously made the all-region toam.

The team went on to win the State Championship in a hard fought battle and pulled out victorious. With things looking better each year, Bro.

The greatest asset to the team was Chuck Lynch, who was medalist in four of eight matches this year, and got the titles of Jack Nicholas of the high school set.

The Red Knights were in the runner-up position in the Central Catholic Conference with a 3—1 record. In overall play for five seasons the Red Knights have a very enviable record of twenty-six wins, thirteen losses, and two ties, under the guidance of Coach Mike Karbo. The co-captains; Ken Rota, Ron Warren, and Bill Smock, showed their abilities by Ken Rota being one of the better Twin City football players as well as leading the squad in scoring. Ron Warren consistently filled in wherever and whenever he was needed and succeeded in scoring twenty-five points against De La Salle. Bill Smock another co-captain, proved his ability by playing consistently and excellently in the tackle position. Jim Tichich had an outstanding season, kicking nineteen of twenty-two extra points for an 86% average fulfilling his duty as Senior todcle and extra point specialist. Gene Coffman, Junior Quarterbock, proved equal to the challenge in stepping in as signal caller. Gene, a pass specialist, completed a tremendous twenty-one out of fifty-five passes for an average of 38%. Gene's rushing average wos four yards. The Red Knights gained 1,939 yards rushing, which about doubled the opponents 1,015 yards. However, the opposition doubled the passing yardage 672 to 330 yards for Benilde. The reason for the difference in rushing should be attributed to the fine job of blocking on the part of the line. Tim Gavin through his consistency at center should be especially singled out. Coach Mike Karbo and assistant coaches Tom O'Reilly and Mike Poseley felt that the keen spirit of the team in their desire to win, especially in the De La Salle gome wos indicative of team throughout the season. The coming of age of the junior reserves was likewise on important factor in the Red Knight's winning season. Since Cooch Mike Karbo is leaving Benilde for a new position next year, we would like to congratulate him for the tremendous job of coaching he has done for Benilde in his past years of coaching. We also wish our best to the new coaches for the coming year. Tom Bartoletti — End Brian Ro o — Center Denny Poteley Guard Tim Govin John Fitzgerald Center Center Bill Smock Tockle — Copt.

The swimming team, coached by Mr. Charbonneau, completed a successful season with a 10 win and 4 loss record, and took second place in the St. Thomas Invitational. The team also finished third in the De La Salle Relays. Paced by co-captains Dennis Dale and John Ladd, the team's greatest achievement this year was a victory over St. Thomas, the first in Benilde History. In on overall look at the season, the swimming team received thirty-one trophys and eight medals. This was truly a successful year. Left lo Right.

The tournament was the highlight of the season and after the first game of the season things really looked good. In the first game the Red Knights played the hardest they ever had against Minnehaha, who was the conference champ of the Private School League, and beat them 4—3 in two overtimes on o goal by Gene Coffman with only fifteen seconds left in the period. But in the next game we ployed against a tough Cretin team and took a hard loss. We still had a chance to win third place in the tournament and a nice trophy when we went against Blake. After the first period we were winning 3—1 but a never say die Blake hockey team rallied for three goals and won 4—3, thus ending a most successful season but also the most heart breaking, for the coach and whole team wanted that trophy badly. The Hockey team was lead again this year with its line of Gene Coffman, Bill Suss, and Pat Walsh, with these three players accounting for 90% of the teams total goals. A 11 Conference honors were bestowed on Bill Suss, who was also named most valuable player on the team, and honorable mention was given to Gene Coffman, Ken Waldron, Pat Wolsh, and Dan McClellan.

These achievements take on new significance when one considers the unusually large number of underclassmen occupying prominent positions on the team. The matmen were paced all season by captain Rielly O'Halloran, who was undefeated in varsity competition, winning 14 times in 14 matches, scoring in them a mere 59 points to his opponents impressive 2 points.

Benilde's track team proved itself to be one of the strongest teams in the Central Catholic Conference by starting out the season by taking first place in the University of Minnesota Indoor Track Meet for Private Schools. Since then the team has concentrated on meeting strong public school teams to prepare for meets with other schools of the CCC. At the Rochester Invitational Meet, Benilde placed third among twelve schools, losing to Aquinas of Wisconson and Blake of Hopkins. John Twoney runs a strong half mile, while his brother Ed does an excellent job with the mile. The 440 is handled well by Dan Fazendin. Dave Nelson is very good in the 100 and 220 yard dashes, while Jon Samuelson has done well in the high hurdles. Rich Creighton has a first place nack for the high jump and Larry Rogers is consistently on fop in the pole vault event. The shot putters are Jim Tichich and Tim Igo who are both doing excellent jobs for the team. The half mile relay team is improving and has good hopes for future years. The mile relay team is very strong in the Conference with top runners including the four fop 440 runners: Dan Fazendin, Terry Williams, Jon Sam-uleson, and Bernie Baier. 125 Baseball THE 1963 BENIIDE A SQUAD BASEBALL TEAM A very young Benilde baseball team has completed the season with o record of 6—4. This puts the team in third place in the Catholic Conference. In baseball there have been some Benilde first to add to the ever growing list. Before the present season Benilde's ball clubs has never defeated De La Salle or St. Thomos, along with these wins we managed to knock both of these teams from first place, and helped us to get into the finals. The Highlight of the game was the one-hit pitching of junior Bob Mahar. As coach Reichel predicted, the team would have to hustle in order to be successful, the fine playing of Steve Smith, Gene Coffman, Kim Vogelsang, Bob Mahor, and all of the players is a very good example of this hustle.

Although it's a young team this year it has fine potential abilities for future years. We had a new coach this year in the person of Br. Bruno. Under the circumstances we think we did a fine job although we didn't have much to work with. We had only two returning players from last year's squad. The doubles teams all year were lacking the fighting spirit, but later in the season rallied to give the team on extra boot which came too late. Our singles were winning consistently, but due to the strong teams in the C.C.C. we ended the season close to the bottom in the standings. The team is losing only one player. Senior captain, Jim Misecik, so hopes are great for the next season. qc FRONT Left fo right; BACK ROW: Mike John� n, Mike Mo hooey. Mork Moorhead. Br. Bruno, cooc ROW: Jerry Bobcock.

Wood Tom McCaffery 129 Seniors By the time a Benilde student embarks on his fourth high school year, he has progressed a long way from his first day as a Freshman. Looking bock, he realizes that what seemed such a long way off three years ago has now come upon him with almost astonishing speed. He is wearing a red and gold ring on his finger to indicate that he is almost ready for the last step in his high school career. Nine months later, on a warm summer evening in early June, he will receive a small slip of inscribed paper, which will represent close to four years of his life, and well over a thousand dollars of his money. This slip of paper, however, means more even than time and money: it represents the man himself; and truly he is now no longer a boy. It represents what he is; what he has made of his life. The personality formed during high school years will be him for the rest of his natural life: the effects of that personality will remain throughout eternity. Though the process of education will continue throughout the life of the individual, the progress he has made in the three facets of the Benilde curriculum will determine the effect of all that is to follow. Academically, Spiritually, and Physically, the Benilde graduate has already determined what he is and will be. By simply living — and dying — a Graduate of Benilde High School in the best sense, the 185 1963 graduates of this institution can literally change the course of history on this earth and beyond. I guess they found that snake in my girl's purse. JOHN G. ADAMS. 151 Jock like: Baseball. Dislike: Long Haircuts. Ambition: To hove summer vocation all year.

For most of these boys, this was the last time they would ever set foot in Benilde High School. For many, this was the last contact they would have with formal schooling; the rest of their continuing process of education would be obtained from the school of Experience. For others, this night simply marked the end of one period, and they must look forward to four. Five, seven, or even more years spent studying and listening. Nevertheless, the little red diploma received that night represented over $1000, and four non-returnable years in their lives. We hope they were well spent. 175 176 177 A Benilde Groduofo School Scenery Maybe now I can find out what they say about the food behind my back. Why my daughters all date Benilde boys.
