A stage of learning, growth, and experience. A place to try, to fail, to learn, and to succeed. An opportunity to develop individual talents, while striving for common goals. These are the qualities that make The Blake Schools one singular sensation. Blake offers its students a unique environment in which they are encouraged to take full advantage of the opportunities available to them. The varied curriculum is designed to suit the needs of all the students, enabling each student to strive for his or her own spot on stage. Blake is able to concentrate on the education of the individual because of its small size. This allows faculty to work closely with students, sharing their professional knowledge, while offering friendship and support. Blake believes in a broad base of education, challenging each student to use his or her abilities to the fullest. This philosophy includes student involvement both outside, as well as within the school. Blake emphasizes the importance of community activities. By becoming involved in events outside of school, students gain experiences that may prove valuable later in life. Within the school, Blake continues to maintain its standard of excellence. 2 Opening SINGULAR SENSATION EVERY STEP 4 Opening WE TAKE Blake dedicates itself to providing the best education possible; therefore, Blake is continually trying to improve its facilities to meet the needs of its students. Every step, Blake takes, is a step forward in the pursuit of excellence. This goal became especially evident with the completion of the new addition and renovation of the old building in the fall of 1982. The new wing includes: a new library, improved science classrooms and laboratories, a new audio-visual department, and additional administrative offices. In the old building, both the studio arts and performing arts departments were expanded to better accommodate students. The physical education facilities also underwent extensive improvements. A new, enlarged gym accompanied by a weight training center and locker rooms now takes the place of the old gym. While advocating and benefiting from the many changes in its facilities and physical appearance, Blake consistently maintains a commitment to its traditions. This commitment can be seen in the measures taken to blend the architecture of the new wing with that of the old building. The new environment continues the Blake tradition of providing an outstanding education for its students. Opening 5 THE Over the years, Blake has experienced many changes, but has not lost sight of its goal to provide its students with a quality education. It is the combination of tradition and innovative ideas that makes Blake a unique school. Blake's success is due only in part to its facilities and physical appearance. It is not the building, but rather the combination of the fine faculty and students that make Blake so special. Whether it be cheering on a sports team, or working late at night on yearbook copy, students and faculty alike share a feeling of camaraderie. It is this feeling that motivates students and faculty to strive toward making Blake the best school possible. This opening section reflects our perception of Blake as one singular sensation. We believe that we can accurately represent the feelings of the entire school when we say WE'RE THE ONE! 6 Opening CNE! Opening 7 Dedication: Clint Knudson We, the 1983 Reflections staff, wish to dedicate this yearbook with respect and admiration to Mr. Clint Knudsen. Mr. Knudsen has been a member of the Blake community for the past twenty-three years. Affectionately known as K or Kootie, he has dedicated his time, energy and interest to his students both in and out of the classroom. White, Albert Einstein hair and a friendly smile characterize his presence. He is a quiet man with a big heart, whose generosity has touched the lives of many students. His warm sense of humor, combined with his patience and acceptance, creates an atmosphere in his classroom in which his students feel at ease. This atmosphere extends beyond the classroom. Students not only feel free to ask for special help with their classwork, but also just drop in to chat with him. In addition to teaching general biology and A.P. biology (a definite favorite among seniors), Mr. Knudsen has participated in a number of other school activities. He has been a faculty representative to the Forum, serving as co-chairperson for three years. ”K has chaperoned numerous class outings and has also been the faculty adviser of the High School Bowl team. Beyond his involvement in the life of the school, he has found the time to do volunteer work every week in the emergency room of Hennipen County Medical Center. Mr. Knudsen is truly an outstanding member of the Blake faculty. Through his warmth and understanding he has significantly contributed to making Blake one singular sensation. 8 Dedication Dedication 9 10 Division - Special Attractions SPECIAL ATTRACTIONS Division - Special Attractions 11 Give 'em the Bear Scare On Tuesday morning, October 5, the halls of Blake were filled with students clad in attire of nearly every conceivable design, color, and pattern. This bizarre scene announced to all that it was Homecoming Week. Clash Day was followed by a slightly chilly Tropical Day. The excitement heated up during Thursday night's bonfire as everyone participated in songs and skits. The skits were followed by the announcement of the 1982 Homecoming Royalty. Freshmen Brian Lucas and Shannon Kennedy, sophomores John Friedell and Karin Mesna, juniors Ruth Borgeson and David Ramsay, and seniors Ann Webster and Bill Heiam were proclaimed to be the attendants, while seniors Justin Whitlock and Emily Sahr reigned supreme as King and Queen. The excitement peaked during Friday morning's Pep-Fest as students and faculty alike anticipated the outcome of the afternoon's football game. All hopes were fulfilled as Blake crushed Esko 34-12. Other teams also held true to this year's slogan, Give 'em the Bear Scare. Swimming made a big splash by gaining an easy victory over Fridley, and soccer continued the streak with a thrilling 4-1 win over Totino Grace. Volleyball played well, but lost a close match to Minneapolis South. The festivities ended on a positive note, as the Crash Street Kids played at Friday night's dance. The crowd responded with enthusiasm - the product of a successful Homecoming Week. 1 Beach bums - Charlie Wagener and Scott Nordstrom 2. Seniors cheer at homecoming. 3.

The seniors were accompanied by faculty members who were also active participants throughout the weekend. When they arrived at Camp Warren, the seniors were divided into several groups for work detail. These projects ranged from garden work to chopping wood to replacing screens and windows. These projects allowed the seniors to help with unfinished work, to put a little of themselves into the camp, and to become better acquainted with one another. Each senior also took part in two diads, one-to-one discussions with other seniors. In addition, the seniors took time to set goals for the class and for themselves as individuals. There were meetings for both Homecoming and Senior-Nine Committees, and the college advisers met with their advisees in small groups. Along with the seriousness that accompanied Senior Weekend, there was also time for seniors and faculty to have some fun. They participated in skits, mini-olympics, a bonfire, and square dancing. Senior Weekend was a time for seniors to unwind and enjoy activities outside of school. It was a time for them to work, play, and reflect with each other. It was a time for seniors to work on becoming a more united class. 3 1. Todd Coniff and Bill Heiam lake part m the goal planning session. 2. Attack of the sea monsters! 3.

This year's show was a great success. Singers, dancers, musicians, and entertainers from all grades displayed an abundance of talent creating an evening of enjoyable entertainment and a productive fund raiser. The Talent Revue gave the audience its first glimpse this year of the Upper School's six singing groups: Concert Choir, Mixed Company, Women's Chorus, All That jazz. Men's Glee Club, and Blaker's Dozen. Although it was their first 1982 performance, the groups sang with confidence. Music Director Cinny Claessens led the groups, while accomplished composer pianist Severin Behnen accompanied them. In addition to the singing groups, the show included several individual acts. Some performances included: a rendition of Mockingbird sung by Seniors Mari Tankenoff and Adam Chase, a song and dance piece Are You From Dixie? performed by Sophomores Rachel Ratner and Laura Deikel, a contemporary dance by junior Dodie Askegaard, a skit performed by juniors Andrea Wallack, Debbie Farber, and Sophomore Sharon Fischlowitz, and a show tune So Long, Dearie sung by Junior Tori Bush. Concluding the evening's entertainment was rock band Tempus Fugit, which performed several original songs, as well as old favorites. Band members Tom Bergerson, Happy Cloutier, and Tim Francis played while students danced. The 1982 Talent Revue proved to be a success, both artistically and financially.

This was not to be this year. Due to problems that arose during the construction of the new wing, the fall play became the late-fall, early-winter, more end of November play. As added excitement, the usual month-and-a-half rehearsal time became the less-than-one-month rehearsal time. Through this darkness, however, a bright light did shine, being the play chosen by the Theatre Director Jeanne Blake The Crucible, by Arthur Miller. This play required complete devotion by its actors and also the ability to create the intense emotion that surrounded the characters. Sex, sin, and scandal make up the theme of The Crucible, in which eacn character is placed in an accurate reproduction of the major incident that began the Salem witch trials. Excellent performances were given by the entire cast, including first timers, Brandt Slosser, as Reverend Parris, Ann Marie White as Tituba, Justin Whitlock as Governor Danforth, and Tom Quaintance as Reverend Hale. The seasoned veteran actors turned in outstanding emotional performances: Adam Chase as the sinning John Proctor, Anna Goldstein as the adultress Abigail Williams, Debby Farber as the tearfully emotional Mary Warren, and Margie Trostel as John Proctor's pious wife Elizabeth. Excellent characterizations were given by rookie Juan Chanco as the devoted husband, Francis Nurse, Mari Tankenoff as the saintly Rebecca Nurse, and Eric Hetzler as the old, hardened, Scotsman Gile Corey. Memorable performances were also given by Michelle Conlin as Sarah Good, Maren Anderson as Ann Putnam, Paul Tiede as Thomas Putnam, Shawn Hayward as Ezekiel Cheever and Sharon Fischlowitz, Andrea Wallack and Juliet Nelson as Betty Parris, Mercy Lewis and Susanna Walcott, the three followers of Abigail Williams. Once again outside help was given by Music Director, Mark Peterson, Lighting Director, Dan Holley, Set Designer, Rick Polenek, and Costume Designer, Laura Sahr. Without the help of these people, the play would have been just a buncn of people standing in the dark on an empty stage. In the end, a group of people blossomed on stage into a magnificent production, making their favorite director, Mrs. Blake, proud. 1. Tituba redeeming her soul. Crucible 21 1.

The Art Department also exhibited several creative pieces of work, which were mounted on the walls of the first floor lobby area. Needless to say, the effort put forth by Music Director Ginny Claessens in order to make the concert pieces more varied and enjoyable, was evident. Each large singing group performed several pieces, ranging from traditional Christmas carols to Hebrew songs. Claessens also included several Scandana-vian pieces in each group's repertoire, due to Minnesota's tribute to Scandanavia Today. The small singing groups sang two to three songs each, including madrigal selections, as well as other light pieces. This successful evening with the arts ended on a high note, as the three large choral groups joined their voices together in song. Following the musical finale, a reception was held in the new wing, with both refreshments and rave reviews. 1. All That Jazz carols 2.

It is a never ending struggle for Minnesotans during the winter months in which they must do their best to fight off the onslaughts of cold and snow Old Man Winter is a crafty opponent who is not above using the lowest methods to gain his advantage It is not uncommon for his strategically placed icy spots along roads and sidewalks to send cars and pedestrians alike reeling into snow banks These snow banks seem to have an uncanny ability to immobilize cars, requiring a great deal of muscle power in order to extract the cars from their icy grip But Old Man Winter often does not need to lift a finger to start trouble. A well aimed snowball launched by some mischievous character can escalate into all out war from which no one escapes untouched Undoubtedly, winter's worst enemy weapon is the cold. One can layer on scarves, sweaters, coats, and mittens until one looks like an animated pile of clothing Nevertheless, one can hardly keep out the cold It wiH find you no matter where you hide After what seems like an eternity, spring finally arrives. Minnesotans begin the process of digging out. Despite the freezing cold and the tons of snow that has been dumped on them, Minnesotans survive. Now they are prepared to face the heat of summer and the sting of the mosquito or are they? 24 Special Attractions Special Attractions 25 Forum Meets Needs of New School The 1982-83 Forum successfully maintained its commitment to a smooth transition into the new school year. While most Blake Upper Schoolers were trying to hang on to tne last few days of summer vacation, Forum members were busy becoming acquainted with the new building and giving tours to the new students. On opening day. Forum members were stationed throughout the school guiding both new and old students to their classrooms. It is this type of extra effort that characterized this year's Forum. The 1982-83 school year challenged the forum with many traditional issues, while also presenting many new opportunities and problems. Some of the major issues dealt with were new organization regulation forms, reorganization of the Social Committee, the new parking lot cross walk situation, and exemption from freshman homeroom. The efforts made by the Forum include a one hundred dollar donation to the Phyllis Wheatley Foundation, the two hundred dollar sponsorship of a black history month, symposium featuring jazz singer Roberta Davis, and the invitation of guest speaker Earl Craig from Minneapolis Urban Coalition. The members of Forum were serious about their work, and in turn acted accordingly. They were successful in improving the quality of student at Blake because of their dedication to maintaining productive efforts. Front Row: B. Stock, L. Carrier, K Dolan. A. Townley. T.

Flash becomes something a little different than any other year. Vet a unifying thread runs through every issue. Flash provides an outlet and showcase for the creativity that might otherwise remain unrecognized in our structured academic and athletic community. Flash produced three issues this year, and in each issue it incorporated concepts such as contests, thematic sections, interviews with artistic leaders in the Twin Cities and essays on moral issues, to attract a wide variety of contributors and readers. Each issue featured a center spread of art or photography by some of the most talented artists in the school. The staff worked innovatively to generate new and appealing ideas for lay-out and covers, too. While communicating closely with English and social studies teachers and Mr. Teslow, Flash continued the positive evolution that began with its birth at the time of the merger in 1974.

Four members of the staff attended a five day Taylor Publications workshop held at St. John's College in Collegeville, Minnesota in August. The workshop included slide shows, lectures, layout labs, business planning, mock deadlines that kept them up until 2:0() am, and a final project that involved the development of this year's theme. Not only did they come away from the workshop with the knowledge of valuable yearbook techniques, but they also received numerous first place ribbons for layouts and won the First Place Theme and Development Award. This year's staff is a relatively small staff. Good things, however, come in small packages. They are a group of hard working individuals interested in and devoted to the production of this publication. The countless hours spent on photography layout, artwork, and copy are reflected in the quality of this book. Editor Jennifer Ebin and co-editor Catherine Owens concentrated on creating an innovative theme that would incorporate this year's memories. The change of cover colors, addition of sixteen pages of color, artwork, and an index are elements that set this book apart from any other. Front Row C Owens, J. Ebin, E Borgeson. A. Myers.

Issue 8 The Blake Schools Wednesday, January 19. 1983 What sane or insane group of people would put up with countless deadlines month after month? The answer is the 1982-83 Spectrum staff. The staff worked diligently to achieve its standard of excellence characterized by intelligence, talent, humor, and a bit of insanity. Under the leadership of Editor-in-Chief Lucy Nelson and Associate Editor Jeff Goldenberg, the newspaper became a source of information and entertainment with wider variety in content marked by consistency in format and design The tight organization of Spectrum allowed the staff to work cohesively and efficiently. The group consisting of a core of dedicated seniors accompanied by loyal, enthusiastic juniors learned to work together, creating unity as well as friendships as they labored through months of beats, copy, and paste-up meetings. The demands of late night meetings were balanced by the outstanding quality of the product. The enjoyment and sense of accomplishment always outweighed the frustrations and difficulties. Overall, it was a profitable and commendable year. Front Row: D. McAnnany. L Nelson, J. Goldenberg, M Mitchell. Second Row: 8 Goldfus, A Myers, S. Lieberman, T. Navin. Third Row: M.

One of the traditional functions of the club is to raise money for the International Flag. In addition to this activity, future plans for the club include raising money to send a doctor to Thailand, entertaining exchange students around the city, and inviting foreign speakers to speak on pertinent issues to members of the Blake Schools.

'arrow Social Committee The Social Committee is made up of thirty-four hardworking freshmen, sophomores, juniors and seniors whose function is to provide opportunities for fun and relaxation for Blake students. The committee planned three dances this year. The first dance was a Sadie Hawkins, run by a WLOL disc-jockey. The dance proved to be a tremendous success because of the large student turn-out Two other dances were held in February and May. Committee members are responsible for setting up the auditorium, selling refreshments at the dance, putting up decorations, finding chaperones, hiring a band, and cleaning up afterwards. The committee's hard work paid off, for the dances provided a casual, relaxed atmosphere for students to enjoy themselves and bop to the beat. Fun Committee Last year's Fun Club has become a legitimate school organization known as the Fun Committee. This year, the Fun Committee has grown in both size and prestige. Given the task of planning and promoting unusual, fun activities for students out of school, the Fun Committee came up with events including an All-Star Wrestling night, a movie bingo night, featuring Godzilla vs. the Bionic Monster'' and The Night of the Living Dead, and a trip to the Twin's Opener. Through these activities, the Committee has helped make Blake a more fun and enjoyable place for the student body. Front Row: M Shogren, $. Duncan - Vice-President, C. Lmdgren - President, M.

Thespians Sometimes one of the more often overlooked organizations, this year's Thespians pushed ahead to become an even more visible organization in the school community. Under the leadership of president Eric Hetzler and vice-president Margie Trostel, the Thespians participated in a wide variety of activities from doughnut sales to work on the locally produced film, A Better Place, A Better Time. With the new addition to the school, the Thespians had to help reorganize the theatre department by cleaning out and fixing-up the costume area. They also were involved in moving the set and stage materials from the old live room to the new storage area in the auditorium As usual, the Thespians also worked hard closely on this year's winter play. The Crucible. National Arts Honor Society The National Arts Honor Society is a club designed to increase the awareness of arts in the Blake community. Its members are highly motivated art students who receive a B or above in any arts department course. The club's main function is to raise funds for the benefit of the arts department while exposing its members to artistic opportunities not usually experienced in the classrooms. The Art Society is a regular supporter of and contributor to other organizations in the school such as Flash magazine, designer of flyers, and announcements for alumni and parents, and seller of the annual homecoming sweatshirts and t-shirts. The club co-sponsors public and school art events such as Blake choral concerts, and invites artistic members of the outside community to exhibit, perform, and lecture at Blake. One of the club's most successful efforts has been its involvement in the Spring Festival: making posters, painting faces, manning the pottery wheel, and above all setting the tone for the event.

Senior, Arie Struyk and juniors, Farzad Alvi, Jon Traub, and Henry Hale debated throughout the five state area with winning records. After seeing the strength of many up-and-coming debaters during this record breaking year, coach Gregory Dawson is optimistic about next season. Yet the unique flavor and pace-setting aggressiveness of this varsity squad will not soon be forgotten. Debate 33 Front Row A. Phillips, D Warner. M. Crossman. B Roback. A.

The leadership of this year's club was in the capable hands of president Tom Bergerson and vice-president Scott Downie. The club's major project. Kissing Elf Cards, went over with a bang, generating over six hundred dollars. This money was used to support other clubs and charity organizations. Zoology Club This year's Zoology club not only worked with animals, but also expanded into Botany. It was a year of transition for the club's members because of construction, in turn their main concentration was on the new greenhouse. Hopefully, next year's club will have more involvement from all grades. First Row: L. Mossier, J. Knutson, M. Harrison. Second Row: K Knieff. K. lackson, I. Sinks. Third Row G.

This group, with its twenty-eight powerful voices, is wowing audiences wherever they perform. Despite having only three senior members, the Glee Club possessed all the polish and confidence of an experienced group. Blaker's Dozen Blaker's Dozen, the Upper School's only acapella choral group, consists of thirteen male voices from the Men’s Glee Club. This select group, under the leadership of Paul Tiede, practices several times each week in the morning before school starts. The Dozen performs in both Upper School concerts, as well as for out-of-school functions. With their talent for acapella singing and showmanship. The Blaker's Dozen members continue to improve with each performance, while providing their audiences with good entertainment. Left to Right: M Rubenstein. C Schmidt. T Francis. D. Goldberg. D.

The group was a definite attraction in the Talent Show, and their piece New York New York was a huge success. In February, they traveled to Madison, Wisconsin, for an exciting and eventful '83 tour. Their spring musical selection On Broadway was the pefect way to end a productive and successful year. All That Jazz Each member of All That Jazz contributed something special to every practice and performance. Laura, a second soprano, managed to stretch her range and do a great job of singing soprano. Rachel always cheered up the practices with her friendly smile, and even though Anne never knew if we had practice, Sarah never failed to keep the group from starving with her caramel rolls and donuts. Shannon certainly took advantage of her senior privilege to be late, but Karin had to rise at 3:00 a.m. hoping to make it to practice on time. Laura never did find out who had rung the doorbell, but her voice added a lot to the talented second sopranos. Every Jazz member found out that Libby was definitely not a morning person, but her liveliness made up for all of that. Kim could never put the Tab can down, but Kathy and Robin proved to be more than just Frosh. They were the rookiest rookies of the year. Led by our fearless prez, Michelle, who made all those late night reminder calls, the group would like to thank Anne, Jazz’s own tinkler, and Gin-ny and Sev for their greatly appreciated help.

Composed of over thirty juniors and seniors and one sophomore, the Concert Choir is traditionally considered the most experienced of Blake's singing groups. In each of the group's three school performances — Talent Revue and the Winter and Spring Concerts - the Choir was warmly received by its audiences. The group also gave several performances outside of school, including a trip to St. Louis in May. The Concert Choir's repertoire contained a wide variety of both contemporary and classical pieces. The choreographed medley taken from the Broadway hit Hello Dolly provided an exciting finale, marking the end of this year's Choral Season. Mixed Company Mixed Company is a select ensemble singing group, consisting of eight members from Concert Choir. The group held rehearsals twice a week on Wednesday and Friday mornings before school. The group sang in three school concerts, on the Concert Choir tour, and gave performances for several out-of-school functions. Despite their small number. Mixed Company proved to be a spirited and dynamic group, and their enthusiasm was evident in their well-received performances. Left to Right: H Cloutier. M Tankenoff. B Heiam. M linvi, T Bush.

Despite their commitment to their studies, Blake students manage to stay hip to the 1980s and in tune with the times. When they're not in school, Blake students entertain themselves with movies, music and television. We took a survey of a sample of students to find out the best of this year's entertainment and here are the results. Dominating the marquis this season were three of the nation’s most popular movies: Tootsie'', An Officer and a Gentleman and that lovable alien from outer space, E.T At home, Blake students turned their television sets to such evening classics as MmA S H, Dynasty, and Hill Street Blues. Students who don't receive their daily t.v. fix during prime time find comfort in the daytime soaps. All My Children and General Hospital. 1982 saw the arrival of many new pop groups on the music charts. Among the favorites at Blake were the Australian band. Men At Work, the rockable Stray Cats, and Duran, Duran, with their respective hits Down Under, Rock This Town and Hungry Like The Wolf. Students listened to these songs on their favorite radio stations, KQ92, WLOL, and K101, 101% music. Over the years, tastes will surely change, but these are the favorites of the Blake students in the 1982 83 school year J BEST SONGS Down Under Uungry Like the Welf AT THE MOVIES err THE Extfyl TEflKESTRML €f f icer and a Gentleman Tcctsie RADIO STATIONS 38 Special Attractions rues WLOL nci PCIME-TIHE TELEVISION M A S H Dynasty Dill Street Dines DAYTIME TELEVISION All My Children General Hospital 40 Division - DirectofS DIRECTORS Division - Directors 41 Mock Trials a Favorite in Constitutional Studies One of Blake's finest attempts to prepare its students for life on the outside is the Constitutional Studies class. The main purpose of the class is to provide its students with a basic understanding of America's justice system. In the process, students become very familiar with their own basic rights while studying the constitution in depth. Students participate in several projects and activities relating to judicial issues such as studying the book, Gideon's Trumpet and preparing for mock court cases. The mock court cases are considered by many students to be the favorite part of the course. Each student participates in two different cases. After approximately three to four weeks of research and preparation, the classroom becomes a courtroom and the experience begins. The first case is a criminal case, involving one judge, numerous witnesses, a respectfully silent courtroom, a nine-person jury, and four (two to a side) very emotional student lawyers ready to fight for blood for their clients. About one month following the criminal cases, the students are matched up w'ith new partners and begin to research for their appeals case. This case is different in that it involves only a three-judge panel and tw'O teams of lawyers. Although the court cases are exciting highlights of the class, students consider the day-to-day class discussions to be the best part. With both conservative as well as liberal students in the class, heated debates are not the exception, but the rule. Don't miss the Constitutional Studies experience! Med. Bio. Students Reach Out Have you ever worked in an emergency room at a county hospital? Have you ever taken a field trip to a mortuary? Have you ever tried being a target for a ninety-two year old bowler? The Medical Biology class has done a lot of the above and more. Med. Bio. is an unique year-long course for juniors and seniors taught by Greg Bartel. Students are not confined to the classroom, but rather have the opportunity to do weekly volunteer work at a nursing home and hospital. This year during the first semester the students volunteered at Park Nursing Home in St. Louis Park. The students filled their hours doing everything from eating with the residents to helping them make scrapbooks to one-to-one visits. Residents enjoyed these visits, as they brightened up ordinarily long and lonely days. During the second semester, the students worked at the Hennepin County Medical Center, where their volunteer shifts were each four hours in length. At the Medical Center, students helped out whenever they were needed; they manned phones, took blood samples to the labs, and visited with patients in the emergency room. This volunteer work required a bigger time commitment per week on a less lenient schedule. In addition to requiring volunteer work, the Medical Biology class met twice a week for class activities and discussions. Activities have included a CPR (cardiopulmonary resucitation) class, and all Medical Biology students are now certified rescuers. Discussions have included subjects such as aging, death, dying, and videos on these subjects, and a visit to a mortuary have given the students a better perspective on death. Although the students learned a great deal in the classroom, the only homework was to keep a journal to record volunteer experiences. Medical Biology is an unique opportunity for students to get out into the community and help others while learning in the process. 1. Kari Nilsen visits with Julie at Park. 2.

Student admissions to the school; the hiring and evaluation of the faculty; the formulation of academic requirements; the articulation of expectations for student behavior; course registration; the administration of exams; the maintenance of student records; support for student activities; academic, personal, and college counseling; and the maintenance and use of the facilities are some of the major responsibilities of this group. The underlying philosophy of the administrators is that their jobs exist only to help and encourage the faculty and students to realize their full potential and to carry out the mission of the school. The pleasures derived from being a member of the administration at The Blake Schools come from being part of an academically stimulating school in which every individual has a wide variety of opportunities to contribute to the strength of the community. 1.

Administration 45 Secretaries Although their efforts often go unnoticed, the office staff is essential to the successful management of the Blake Upper School. Dealing with worried parents, frenzied teachers, and frustrated students is part of the everyday routine for the office staff, whose ' responsibility it is to keep our school running smoothly. Each member of the office staff has a variety of specific tasks. For example, while Nadeyne Johnson of Student Services processes applications for about a hundred seniors a year, Dee O'Grady and Marilyn Hammer field various important phone calls for Blake president David Hersey and vice-president and Upper School director, Barbara Stock. Alumni secretary Gwen Kingman has the important responsibility of maintaining contact with Blake graduates. In the general office, secretaries Betty Helmbrecht and Bonnie Coon take care of school books and attendance. Together, the office staff works to help insure that a very busy Upper School functions well. i First Row: Nadeyne Johnson - Secretary to Student Services, Betty Hdmbrecht -Secretary to the Assistant Director.

Not Pictured: Anna Sheppard Talk about slaving over a hot stove, the kitchen staff does this and much more. Although no high school can pride itself on gourmet cuisine and a restaurant's setting, the Upper school's food and dining room atmosphere can both be considered excellent. The credit, of course, goes to our kitchen staff; without their thoughtfulness, concern, and patience, we would not have the kind of food and dining room atmosphere that we are so proud of today. The kitchen staff spends countless hours preparing both our food and the lunchroom so that our meals can be the best ever. Thank you to members of the kitchen staff for all that you do - it is appreciated by all. First Row: |im Lance. Calvin Welch, Dan Schleicher, Raymond Stafford. Not Pictured: Nancey Welch, Norbert Rhode. The Blake Upper School would be absolutely lost without the devotion of the maintenance staff. However, much of what the maintenance staff does is taken for granted: who lights fires in the lobby fireplace on those cold, winter mornings ? Who sets up the auditorium for assemblies? Who fixes everything from broken heaters to broken lockers? Who vacuums the third floor lounge? Who sweeps the halls and lunchroom? And who is always there, ready and willing to help with a smile? The answer is the maintenance staff. Thank you to the members of the maintenance staff from the student body and faculty for making this school a better place to be. Kitchen Staff Maintenance 47 New Facilities Enhance P.E. Dept. With the remodeling changes: the larger gym, new locker rooms, and weight room the Physical Education program will be upgraded in the coming years by adding new activities, and looking for much better overall school participation. The Physical Education program is committed to the development of the total student - physically, mentally, emotionally, and socially. It is our aim to provide each student with skills, knowledge, and information to facilitate this development. Our program emphasizes physical fitness assessments, fitness conditioning activities, individual lifetime sports, and team sports activities. Our goal is to develop an appreciation and understanding of one's physical being and a realization of the value of physical activity. Some of the major benefits of our program are: opportunity for hard, vigorous exercise, fitness assessment skills, development of individual sports skills, exposure to team play, knowledge of game rules and strategies, knowledge of equipment selection, use, and care. Finally, we stress the importance of good sportsmanship. 1. Teresa Schneider. 2.

It has made possible an improvement in service, especially in the area of assistance and guidance in the use of print and nonprint materials that support and enrich the educational programs of the school The space and structure of both the Library and the Audiovisual Media Area reflect, also, Blake's awareness of the information explosion. It provides more student and faculty space tor study, work, research, and leisure reading and exploration; more storage and display areas for materials, and more hands-on experience with computers, microform readers, video equipment and other instructional equipment necessary to bring to the student an exposure to the variety of learning avenues available today Blake has addressed the future, as well in its planning. It will be possible to add many technological advances, perhaps yet unknown, in the information science field. Technology in education and in the retrieval and presentation of both print and nonprint materials are certain to be part of Blake's educational programs of the future. 2 Firs! Row: A I.

Library Media 49 Students Show High Interest in Mathematics One way to determine if a program is successful is by looking at the number of students taking elective courses. The Mathematics department is very pleased with the high percentage of juniors and seniors taking elective math courses. Ninety-six percent of the juniors and eighty-four percent of the seniors are taking a mathematics course during the 1982-83 school year. Another measure of success is the high number of students who receive college credit for Calculus taken at Blake each year. Our Calculus, Statistics, Functions, and Analytic Geometry and Intro, to Calculus all use college texts, and our students are exceptionally well prepared for college mathematics. Our students are also becoming better prepared for college in the area of computer mathematics. We are very excited about the new computer room and increased number of micro computers throughout the Upper School. The freshmen will study computer mathematics during their algebra courses, and Computer mathematics will again be offered this year. The mathematics department realizes the importance of computer literacy in a society in which computers influence almost every field of endeavor. 50 Math First Row Joanne Robson Paul Vetscher, Maryann Dorsey, Charlie Seel Second Row Lots Nottbohm, Bruce Archibald, Lee Crotle, John Boufford. 1 Mrs. Dorsey protects. 2.

The department was not directly affected by the new construction, but expanded teaching and storage space, the new library, and the new media center definitely had an impact on course content and activities. Blake students are required to take three years of social studies courses; many choose to take more than this requirement. Ninth graders study World Culture. A special Human Awareness” unit focuses on issues and ideas relevant to adolescence. The required course for tenth graders is American Culture. A personal history, a book critique, and THE RESEARCH PAPER are projects which enable students to probe certain aspects of U S. history more deeply. Juniors and seniors choose from a variety of electives. The social studies department strives to maintain a balance of history and social science courses as well as a balance of American oriented courses and ones which deal with other cultures. Courses such as Western Civilization, Issues in American History, Women's History, and Three Wars enable students to pursue history at a higher level than the ninth and tenth grade courses. Social science concepts are emphasized in Economics, Constitutional Studies, Social Psychology, and Politics, World Problems, Communism, Comparative Religions, and Minority Studies provide students with information about different cultures, belief systems and groups. North American Rivers and Discovering Change take multidisciplinary approaches to their subject matter. The social studies department tries to involve students in the community through field trips, projects in community agencies, and guest speakers By presenting a varied and rich curriculum, the department has maintained a high level of student interest and enthusiasm in course offerings. 54 English We Like to Hang Around With Words The study of English is so continuous throughout the four years of the program that its purposes and content should be described generally ( tomorrow we will have a learning experience ). The study becomes more demanding with the increasing maturity of the students ( of course you've all read Aristotle's Poetics ). The purpose of reading is to increase the students knowledge of, and interest in, good literature and authors (“Mark Twain's batting average was ). The writing at all levels consists of themes and short class papers ( in the effort of communication ). Work is planned to increase the students' vocabulary ( Well, enough of that. Let's get back to our work ). The approach to grammar is the classical approach ( I don't want to influence you, but ). First Row Patricia Shnider, Wfl Fisher, Lee Wool man.

English 55 Science Department Committed to Maintaining Excellence The excitement of a new facility, one of the very best high school science facilities in the state, has been an inspiration to Blake's science staff and students. This addition has produced a renewed commitment on the part of the faculty to excellence — excellence in program and teaching, and to a continued innovativeness of curriculum. This commitment is evidenced in the development of new courses in physics and chemistry, extension of advanced placement opportunities in physics, chemistry, biology, and a sequence of special seminar speakers. The combination of a dedicated, competent staff and outstanding laboratory, classroom, and storage preparation space has helped to create a special atmosphere in the department. It is an atmosphere which combines intensity and rigor of study with support, special assistance, and warmth. It is an atmosphere in which learning and teaching are enjoyable and successful challenges. First Row Patti Soderberg. Kxty Sherman. Greg Bartel.

In addition to language training, the student will acquire an appreciation of the civilization and culture of the countries whose language one is studying. Well-prepared and dedicated teachers have developed a well-articulated and thorough four-skill curriculm in language, literature, and civilization which is presented with enthusiasm and with attention to individual differences. The study of a foreign language is a profound learning experience that does much to broaden the outlook of adolescents. Even for those who are not inclined to pursue our programs to the literature level, the experience of studying a language develops mental abilities which are of lasting intrisic value. Sensitivity to linguistic structure, capacity to memorize, attentiveness to detail, and self-discipline are of necessity developed in the course of learning the language. We feel that we are engaged not only in teaching the foreign language but also in helping the student toward maturity. First Row Annchen Gibbon-German. Franc cxse Antoine-French, Jamne Netson-French.

The Arts at The Blake Schools are both a body of knowledge and a series of problem solving activities designed to stimulate and enhance the development of the individual Students' goals are based on the concept of education for the whole person with a strong emphasis on promoting, facilitating, and nurturing a heightened awareness of the worth of the individual, his or her potential, and responsibilities in a democratic society. Be it Drama, Speech, Music, or Visual 2 Studies, the Arts contribute to the entire Blake Schools community. Fostered by caring, devoted, and talented instructors, supported by administration, parents, alumni, and friends, the continued positive contribution to Blake students through the Arts will grow. Innovative and traditionally strong programs in Visual Studies, Drama. Music, and Speech have developed an opportunity for a breadth of experiences for the Blake student. Departmental requirements direct students to experience the diversity of the two divisions: Speech and Fine Arts, while encouraging students to develop depth and commitment to excellence. 60 Arts 1 Mr Tesiow and his puppy dog eyes. 2.

The team did not give up - with work and discipline, skills were refined, and the attitude brightened. Led by co-captains Ken Schneider and Todd Nordby, confidence went up and a major change in team play was obvious as they compiled a 7-3-2 record in their remaining twelve games. Highlights of the turnaround included an overtime victory over tenth ranked Holy Angels, a 3-1 win over Breck, and a 4-1 Homecoming victory over Totino Grace. These victories helped bring the team to a second place conference finish, the best in seven years! Despite an early loss in the region tournament to Wayzata, the team enjoyed a successful season.

The team was picked to finish last ' in the conference, but through the superb coaching of John Boufford, who was named Tri-Metro coach of the year, the team won its first seven games and was ranked eighth in the state. The success was also attributed to the team's spirit and determination which was led by co-captains Justin Whitlock and Mark Mitchell. The highlight of the season came when Blake defeated this year's Class A state champions, Brooklyn Center, 21-12 at their Homecoming. Although Blake lost its last two games ending up with a 7-2 record, second best in the conference, the season was a tremendous success with many noteworthy individual accomplishments. More importantly, though, was the pride all of the team members shared. Not only was the team respected in the school, but also in the conference. First row. T. Kaufman, T. Mercer. C. Roehrdanz, D.

The team suffered its only defeat during the season, losing 3-2 in a very close match with archrival S.P.A. The team continued its awesome play by winning regions and proceeding to the state tournament. In stale team competition the women lost their first round match 3-2 to Staples. However, the two doubles teams composed of Ann Webster and Kelly Adams and cocaptains, Erin Borgeson and Lucy Nelson placed third and fourth respectively in individual state competition. Positive attitudes, strong unity, and the best fan support ever led by number one fan lohn Rowe contributed to the team's overall success.

Led by Head coach Patti Soderberg and senior captain Liz Wall, the 1982 Varsity Volleyball team began its season with spirit and enthusiasm. As a relatively young team, the beginning of the season was a time for the players to get used to playing with each other. The women quickly learned that volleyball is a team effort and each member of the team is as vital as any other. With this in mind, everyone worked to her ability and beyond which resulted in the extraordinary improvement of the team. Total concentration was also a goal of the team. The success of this was apparent when the team managed to look beyond the sometimes less than inspiring scoreboard and give the opposition a very tough match. First row: K. Knieff - mgr., I.

Tiina Karjallinen also earned these titles in the 100 yard backstroke. Aside from the hard work, members of the team found time to enjoy their season. The annual team trip up north, the movie-slumber party, and pre-meet meals are only a few examples of the out of the water activities.

L...A...K... E.! The 1982-83 school year was a very exciting one for the three squads of Blake cheerleaders; fall, hockey, and basketball. There were many positive changes made as well as excellent • squads of girls who all got along well. Though each squad had its own traits, together, they all fulfilled their main function: to bring about spirit. From the 4:00 a m. You made varsity wake up party, to the depressing loss against St. Anthony in football, the fall cheerleaders proved they knew what a cheerleading squad should be. Led by captains Kim Schmoker and Emily Sahr. the two squads of six cheered their hearts (not to mention their lungs) out at football and soccer games, as well as at some of the volleyball games and swim meets. There was also an effort made to get all twelve of the cheerleaders cheering at many of the games. The girls showed their cooperation and hard work by coming up with four new cheers and by developing new movements to old cheers. The hard work, including two or three games a week, pepfests, and practices payed off, allowing for before game dinners, parties and fun. C'mon Blake! , Yeah, rah rah Nnamdi! , Hey you guys. Nnamdi isn’t even out there. These are some of the familiar sounds one can hear coming from the basketball cheerleaders. The squad of six, run by captain Pam Baxter, was made up of girls ready to work hard and also have alot of fun. The spirit of the basketball cheerleaders was apparent around the school, with signs publicizing many of the games. The girls also kept up their sense of fun with the late night Poppin Fresh runs and the shopping sprees. The hockey cheerleading squad went through some changes this year as well as the other squads. The addition of pants to the wardrobe was controversial, but eventually was taken well There was also a great effort made to have new pyramids and cheers at each game Having two practices and one or two games a week kept the girls on their toes and the best they could be. Captain Shelly Heithoff kept the girls under control , but time was allowed for runs to the food counter for twinkies, popcorn, or licorice. The squad was excellent this year, and had a great time cheering the hockey team to many great victories, especially at the MET! The Blake community can be proud of all of the hard work the cheerleaders have put into their sports. They have aroused spirit and supported all sporting events. Bottom Row A LinviU. J Skramstad.

The team got off to a 2-4 start but with some line changes and determination to succeed, ran off a fourteen game winning streak entering regions. Head coach Ric Drill-Mellum and assistant coach Tom Byers did an outstanding job bringing together a group of individuals and turning them into a strongly united team. The team kept its reputation for fast skating, hard shooting and accurate passing thanks to agonizing practices conducted by the coaches. Despite having to come back time and time again, the young team composing of only four seniors, kept fighting to achieve its 16-4 record. By overcoming many illnesses and injuries that hit the team extremely hard in the middle of the season, the team kept on winning. They ended their season by playing at De Met and winning second place in the Regional championships. 1. Pat Kerr facing off. 1 Jefferson •1-7 SPA 4-3 Fargo.

The coaching staff of Tim Buckley and Bob Teslow was expanded to include a valuable new member-Bruce Yonehiro, a 79 Blake graduate. Together they added new dimensions resulting in great improvements in the whole team. With a large core of returning lettermen and some new talent, the boys' team began the season with optimum confidence. As the season progressed, there were high expectations to go to the State Meet. That hope died, however, when the boys' team fell to fourth place, just five points short of their goal. The performance of the girls' team was the antithesis of the boys'. Early in the season it was feared the girls' team would not perform as well as in previous years due to the loss of five of the six varsity lettermen. With determination, they proved this fear to be false. The girls' team, led by cocaptains Maren Anderson and Andrea Wallack, consistently improved gaining a victory at the section V Meet and a berth in the State Meet. The 1982-83 season was a season for development, and the team is looking forward to the 83-84 season.

Yet, through the leadership of cocaptains Nnamdi Okoronkwo and Mark Mitchell, the team finished with one of Blake's best seasons ever. The formula to their success was their spirit, unity, determination, and unlimited talent. The talent was so abundant that the starting line up changed with each game. Another unique aspect about this year's team was that it had no dominant superstars, yet it had no waterboys. From the coaches, brothers Steve and Rollie Johnson, to the managers, everyone had something significant to contribute. The highlight of the season came in Blake's 62-56 victory over state ranked Brooklyn Center. This victory demonstrated the team's full potential and talent Although Blake will be losing five varsity players next year, it will be returning many talented underclassmen. The future looks bright for the Bears. 1. Nnamdi Okoronkwo goes for the rebound 2 .Mark Mitchell shoots from the key.

The team spent seven weeks on dryland training. Once the foot of snow fell, however, the excitement among the team members rose. While half the team trained at the Telemark Camp, others were skiing down the streets of Minneapolis. The boys' team this year had alot of potential. Defeating a top ranked Richfield team was the highlight of the season. The boy's future looks very promising. The girls' ski team had their best season ever. They won all of their dual and tri-meets. They placed 11th out of forty teams in the Hopkins Relays and placed second in the region. The success of the team resulted from the hard work and esprit de corps which was demonstrated all season. 1. Coach Danielson giving practice instructions. 2.

Despite numerous injuries and close heartbreaking losses, the captains agreed that this year's team was one of the most enthusiastic and fun-loving teams ever. The road trip to Austin was a great team unity starter. After the trip, the team had its ups and downs but played well in carries, encouraged by inspiring'' shouts from the bench. These included don't do it... do it... the one who controls the boards, controls the game ... who ya' got ... get on your man ... shoot it, no -pass it, no — reverse it, Humma-Hiya! The most memorable game of the season was that against conference champions St. Anthony. It took an outside shot at the buzzer to send the game into overtime. St. Anthony eventually came out on top. All in all. according to coach Tom Palm, the season was sweet alright . 1.

However, the team faced one of the toughest schedules in the state. Nine of the teams that Blake would swim against were ranked in the state's top twenty. But, with the innovative training techniques introduced by new coaches. John Thomas and Bruce Hunstad, Blake was prepared to meet these challenges. These new techniques included weights an hour before school three times a week and extensive use of surgical tubing. In addition to these exercises, the team endured two and a half hours of practice. Led by senior co-captains Justin Whitlock and Charlie Lindgren, the Men's Swimming and Diving teams llammded'' its way through yet another rewarding and fun season. No, the 1982-1983 Swimming and Diving team was not to be messed with. 1. Todd Poseley ready to spring off the blocks.

David Mortenson after a tough practice 98 Blood, Sweat, and Tears Blood, Sweat, and T ears Blood, sweat, and tears; these three words imply pain, a sensation the average person tries to avoid. To the athlete, however, these are the three main ingredients of success. Any athlete, whether a competitor in high school, college, or professional sports cannot deny that success is not merely a result of natural talent, but of hard work. As the saying goes, NO PAIN, NO CAIN”. What, then, drives the athlete to sacrifice so much of himself? Why do athletes endure the endless hours of punishing practice? The answer is the self-satisfaction derived from doing one's best. This can include winning a state championship or taking first place in a race, but it can also include beating a personal record, contributing to the overall team effort, or simply giving one's all. Competition is a vital and beneficial part of education. It leads us to a better understanding of ourselves. Through competition we learn how to bring out the best in ourselves by pushing ourselves to our physical and emotional limits. 6 Blood, Sweat, and Tears 99 100 Division - Company COMPANY Division - Company 101 r4Ncy,fLNi y f4C-€LT f4DS FASHION Sometimes controversial sometimes acceptable Each day the halls were tilled with a variety ot current styles and tads The tads that dominated the IM82-H school year ranged Horn lac y dresses to grubby sweats, trom black bucks to jean jac kets No matter how wild, c onservative or vogue one's apparel was it somehow tits in with the diversity among students For the past two years, novelty jewelry has een quite the tashion Gold earbands. long dangling earrings and quadruple-pieu ed ears were common spectacles The tx ys also pined in on the pierc ed ear craze by pierc mg one ear Other tads included the vogue cumberbun and sash look The Guess leans were also c ommonly adopted by many Blake girls Among the outdoor apparel tashions. duck shoes, trench coats and letter jackets were the most prominent Shoes were quite an item in the IMH wardrobe The pointy ballet shoe and the short leather boot were a hot tashion tor the girls while the boys preterred a hightop or mocc asm look Without a doubt, hairstyles ottered the students the most diversity as a current tad Hair gel and dye was commonly used among both males and temales Some I wore the naval buzz (which was to go as tar as a I mohawk), while still others preterred the curly I c ropped lcx)k Students used their imagination I inventing their own unique styles to reveal their I ditterent personalities I Fads come and tads go. but one tad seems never to I die. the undying plaid kilt tad Shetland sweaters kahki I pants and penny loaters remained in the tast lane ot 5 fashions Undetc MARK ALDRICH ANDREW ALTMAN BtTHAMXRSON TlOANDKttON Ai� RT ANDRIWS CHAR1K ASM CARD SARAH 8AXIR RANDALL BARRY SttPHANIBill robn etNMn KITTY 0IRCLRSON AMY BtRGQtfcT MW 8LUM UNYY BRADFORD RYTX BRIMXN IYMTTI BROOKS M «8UNN BOB BUSH MMCARIAN) TOMCASt DANE CLARK COWARD COfCN SKRRY COHtN IANCOMSOR STIPHAMI CORNWIU AM COUSON CRANT CURTISS TOBY DAYTON KEVKDELANIY CRECIBU KATHY IVIRIY BRIAN ft ID SARAH fTTZMAUWCI NORIIN FOSTIR ADAMfRlSCH 104 Freshmen WENDY NORDSTROM MARK ORERMEYER TEOOOONOGHUE ARTHUR PHELPS JOSEPH PRASS OAVDPRSST , UZ RASMUSSEN MM RREY OTARI ESROEHEDANZ MKE ROMAN ANDREW ROSEN RAOTH RUBENSTEIS MKE RUDE k n Sander doriscmampp HSASCHMOKER CI SCHOENWfTTER AMsE SCHULZE (ANESOTWtlTZER AMYSGAl IAN SISKS SUSAN SHOCREN 6AR6SIAOE TOOOSMLRLEN EVANSTIffEY ANN SUNORERG MERRY SUNOEIERC ALEX THOMPSON TIM THOMPSON TREYTUOM MEIBSA WALLACK DALE WARNER ERIC.

After a long and intense week of hitting the books, students always look forward to that paradise called the weekend. The ideal weekend includes fun, food, and friends. Take Bradley Blake's weekend for example. Too bad Bradley can't join the gang at the arcade; he has hockey practice. Poor Bradley just can't seem to keep his mind on the puck, for tonight is the Sadie Hawkins ... and he is looking forward to an evening out with Buffy. After showering, Bradley hops into his midnight blue Wagoneer and heads out to the lake. He arrives at Buffy's at 7:30. After the ritual exchange of corsages, Buf and Brad hop into the Wagoneer and are off to Windfield Potter's for dinner. They arrive at the dance and bop to the new wave beat with all of their friends. As usual, Bradley sleeps in on Saturday morning. After a full afternoon of skiing at Afton, Brad comes home and sacks out in a chair in front of the T.V. He is awakened by the phone. It's the gang wanting to know if he’ll join them for a movie at the Uptown. But first Bradley meets the guys at Mac Dons for dinner, after which they grab a dish of chocolate-chocolate chip at Haagen Dazs. Of course they are still hungry after the flick, so they buy the last of the day's croissants at Croissant Expres. They all pile into Bradley's Wagoneer, which is illegally parked, and head for Kenwood where a great party is supposedly taking place. Here they remain until their designated curfews. Bradley enjoys himself, never thinking of the fact that he must write two papers all during Sunday afternoon. Underclassmen 117 118 Underclassmen Simply Passing Time ... Unlike many other high schools, Blake offers its students a definite amount of free time each day. This time can be used for last minute cramming, but is generally used as an opportunity to relax, socialize and unwind. The front lobby is the center of activity in the school and students often congregate near the warmth of the fire to enjoy the company of friends and to discuss the day's events. Others find a corner or bench where they might rest between classes. Students enjoy relaxing and studying casually in the lobby. Weekly bake sales provide an added attraction on Friday afternoons. Some students, clad in tropical attire, use the lobby to try to suntan. The third floor lounge is often a convenient place for students to gather for a bottle of soda. Students enjoy the carpeted floors and the numerous work tables where they can sit and pass their time. Sophomores and Juniors populate this area, much to the dismay of many teachers. The hallways too are always filled with bodies sprawled out on the floor. Croups of students can be seen talking by their lockers. Some will tune into their Sony Walkman while tuning out the world. Others laugh with their friends while still others aimlessly roam the halls. When spring arrives, students empty the school to sit peacefully on the green grass and to bask in the noon-day sun. Students lean against the trees, and chew on blades of grass. Frisbees fly through the air and spirits are high. Blake students are fortunate to have this leisure time and each person has his or her own way of simply passing time.

Helen Keller. AMANDA MARIE McGovern To the Senior Class: Although I've only just arrived at Walthamston Hall, I can see the experience of being an exchange student will shatter the walls of my provincial world very quickly. The fright that went through me as I entered my first English class and heard my timid voice saying that I was sorry for being late, and that my name is Amy only can be understood when experienced. I realized that I was tne one with the accent, I was the minority, and this feeling of alienation and aloneness was an invaluable lesson in understanding other people around the globe. For when one leaves familiarity and is immediately forced to assimilate with the culture of the majority, one's security and identity can be very easily robbed. I have learned from the short time I've been here that it's not really a question of accepting foreign cultures, for 'to accept' implies that we are doing them a favor by it, ratner, it is a question of learning from them ... 150 Unvi McGovern Skip ...

Will I remember my High School years as the grandest of them all? Those years of excitement and mischief and those of frustration and competition. I tried so hard to touch everyone To be felt and leave a piece of myself behind Yes, I wanted to feel Before it was all over. Ninety-seven names will walk away And I will meet a new face everyday But it will never be the same. Will I be remembered as I hope? Will I see an old friend almost out of reach And then walk away because I know not what to say? We had so many good times Yes, we laughed alot But, not everything was grand We cried so many times, too And when I look through the yearbook I know the tears will flow For so long we were forced to come here together Now, we realize that we are only to be forced apart And when it's time to wear our caps and gowns I will smile, yet the tears will flow. I - Hour on hour, I lean back and wonder How many faces will I ever see again? And how many are forever gone? Cod I feel them flow. The rocket flies too fast now And my mind has become boggled It seems a time for dying But it's almost better than crying And when I look back to reminisce with an old friend Will life ever be so grand again? It scares me to question this. But I am sure that I know. Oh God the tears flow. Times change Suddenly we're grown-up with an entire life ahead of us But the pain is still in me As we must now say goodbye. And finally I will look in a future yearbook to see these memorable, meaningful parts of me. And wish to be back, but realize that I can't And then, yes, then the tears will flow. In the Spotlight Live From Minnesota — It's the Year at a Glance Minnesota's news events of 1982 ranged from Jamie Fisk's kidney transplant to a Scandanavian Celebration. News will come, and news will go, but there are some events of the 1982 year we will never forget. It has been a year of growth and change. While some of these changes brought positive results, others ended in disillusion. Minnesotans will remember, with sadness, the destructive Thanksgiving Day fire that destroyed the Northwestern Bank and surrounding buildings in downtown Minneapolis. Firefighters worked for approximately seven hours just to get the blazing flames under control. The following day, all that was left was a wasteland of smoldering coals and a skeleton scarcely resembling the First Bank building. In 1982 Minnesotans welcomed Governor Rudy Perpich and re-elected Senator Dave Durenburger. The senatorial race was especially exciting because of the millions of dollars spent by candidates Dayton and Durenburger. Increased DFL leadership in the state government will certainly result in new policies — hopefully for the benefit of the state. Not so hopeful were the many Minnesotans caught up in their state's record-breaking snowstorms. Shortly after Christmas Day, Minnesota became an immobilized winter wonderland. To some, it was a winter of hazardous travel, sickness and overall bad humor. However, to the true, lutefish-eating Minnesotans it was a winter of fun and play, of great skiing, sledding, hockey, and ice fishing. Cross-country skiers were not only limited to the park and lake areas, but were frequently found taking advantage of the excellent snow conditions on Hennepin Avenue. All in all, Minnesotans confronted the year's events with an open mind and a positive attitude. Maintaining this outlook, Minnesotans derived more pleasure out of the good that happened, and less disappointment from the bad. 176 Curtain The Final Curtain Is Lowered As the final curtain is lowered and the performers take their bow, they realize that yet another show'' has come to an end. Thus, we have completed another year in our high school careers. For most it is a time to reflect on the past year while looking forward to summer. For seniors it is a bittersweet event involving mixed emotions. There is a feeling of accomplishment for high school achievements, along with an anticipation of the future. At the same time, tears are shed, for these performers know that their show has come to an end. No one will ever forget their Blake high school memories; the excitement of homecoming activities, the time you fell off the risers at the choir concert, the first play audition, and that first BIG DATE! Memories of Blake's school spirit that can be shared by all of us include the blue and green crisco faces, the famous llama cheer , and of course our victory song Blake, Blake Forever . These are all examples of the unlimited opportunities available to each student to get involved in his own special way. Blake is not only a high school, but a chorus line of students and faculty, working together, testing their potentials and performing their best. With the effort put forth toward the achievement of personal growth, Blake students can truly say; we ARE the one! 178 Curtain r r Curtain 179 CURTAIN CALL Directed by: David Breeden — Faculty Adviser Produced by: Jennifer Ebin — Editor Associate Producers: Catherine Owens — Assistant Editor Emily Sahr — Layout Editor Starring: Copy Editors: Jono Gamson and Mari Tankenoff Business Manager: Steve Winikoff Student Life Editors: Julie Ebin and Julie Stoker Sports Editors: Justin Whitlock and Mark Mitchell Faculty Editors: Sarah Bishop and Mark Abramovitz Senior Section Editors: Elise Hanser and Jill Skramstad Underclassmen Editor: Amy Myers Photography Editors: Nnamdi Okoronkwo and Jay Golden With: Michelle Conlin, Tara Gallagher, Anne Linvill, Katie Heegaard, Alison Townley, Eric Hetzler, Erin Borgeson, Erik Beal, Paul F-Jyde, David Perlman, David Lyman, Mark Lucas, Bill Cullen, Tom Price, Andrew Fraley, Steve Hart wig, David Isaacs, Tammy Kaiser, Pam Baxter, Tracy Telander, Walter Barry. REVIEW “Mr. Breeden - please stop dancing on the tables; Emily, we al know you've seen Caddyshack 52 times and have got the gopher imitation down pat; Jono - stop drawing funny pictures of Mari on the copy sheets; Mark and Justin - no - we don't want to do a feature on the football captains; Catherine - sorry, but I axed your caption about the cheerleaders throwing up .the list could go on and on We've had some crazy times, some frustrating times, but we've most of all we've learned what it takes to create a very special publication like Reflections. I would hke to thank my entire staff for their time and devotion in making this book a success. We, as a staff, feel we have achieved our main goal m developing the dynamic theme from A Chorus line. We have created a book combining all of the positive aspects of the Upper School with the benefits brought about from the new building changes The new additions we have made to the book add to its overall quality, including an index, cover and revision page artwork, cover color changes, and an in-depth faculty and academics section. We also hope that our innovative features have fuHy captured the memories of the 1982 83 school year. A very special thanks to my two right-hand women Catherine Owens and Emily Sahr. to Alison Townley for her magnificent job on the cover and division page artwork, to everyone who put up with my yearbook hysteria , and last, but not least, to Mr Breeden We on the yearbook staff have discovered the real Mr B. Not only did he lose his mind around 9:30 p.m. every Wednesday night, but he was once seen stancfrng on top of a table preaching some sort of yearbook wisdom Seriously, thank you Mr. Breeden from the ent� e staff. Your patience and understanding always kept us calm through those intense deadhnes We could never have done it without you. I sincerely hope you enjoy Reflections 82-83.
