Promoting school leadership, good sportsmanship, high scholastic standards and bettering our education are among their chief duties. With his resignation this year Mr. Nordgaard leaves behind nine years of faithful service to the Brainerd School System. He was actively engaged in the supervision of the ten schools in the Brai- nerd system. His duties included supervision of the admsinstrative phases, representing the school in various capacities, making the school budget, and allotting expenditures. The superintendent is directly responsible to the board of education for the operation of the school system. Mr. Blackford has been principal of our high school for the past eighteen years. His busy iob of supervision includes the making of class schedules, checking attendance, organizing office and record work, and school discipline. In addition he is always ready to help and advise students. Both men take an active part in community affairs and are always striving toward coordinating school work and community activities and creating a better understanding of school problems. Mr. Stong assists the principal in maintaining order in the school and in handling the discipline of the school. His chief duty is to assist Mr. Blackford. tvlr. Helling is new this year to Washington High School. He is the guidance director. His duties include the administering at ci testing program, vocational guidance, student enrollment and coun- seling service. QL JOHN F. HELLING Guidance BS.

Class Colors Lilac and White September of i954 found us entering Washington High School's doors as sophomores. We gradually became accustomed to the school and the school to us. We ioined many of the school organizations. We tried to find the ones in which we might prove an asset and also benefit from, lt soon became necessary to elect our officers. Chosen to lead us thru our sophomore year were Denny Gartner, president, Ron Madi- son, vice-president, Norma Deal, secretary, and Joanne Doshan, treasurer. A cabinet of other students was elected to help them. Four teachers acted as class advisors. Many of our boys had interests leaning toward athletics. Our girls helped them along, acting as cheerleaders rooting from the stands. There is a time for play and a time for work. Although we were enthusiastic players we proved our mental powers, also.

Sophomore History This year, 1956-57, our tirst in high school, was exciting and enlightening. Our first days were spent wandering through halls where every door led to a new challenge. We had a few weeks to acclimate our- selves, and then we elected class officers. When the votes were counted, Tom Hawkinson was president, Larry Whitson, vice-president, Carole Swanson, secretary, and Bonita St. Marie, treasurer. The nominating committee became our class cabinet. They were Dianne Baiula. James Campbell, Penny Jo Engelhart, Sandee Gunder- son, Greta Gustafson, Jerry Halverson, Pat Lease, Beryl Moulton, Charles Peterson, Betty Schrom, Philip Sydney and Rudd Thabes. The class cabinet met with the class advisors, Miss Sara Nyiordet, Miss Ruth Preste- gard, Mr. Eugene Eastlund, Mr. John Solien, and officers and aided in making decisions of the class. We were active in the various school organizations- Art Club, FHA, FTA, FFA, GAA, Library Club, Movie Crew, musical organizations-band and choir, publica- tions-Brainonian and Pow-Wow, and Traffic Patrol, iust to mention a few. We feel we were well repre- sented in the athletic department, too. Many of our boys contributed their share in the various major and minor sports, and four of our sophomore girls were B squad cheerleaders. Three of our classmates, Tom Hawkinson, Beryl Moulton, and Bob Trask served on the Student Council. The year came to a close and we had made the grade as full-fledged members of Wash- ington High. Left behind us was a year filled with fun and learning, The things we've learned, the exper- iences we've had this past year, will leave many vivid impressions on our minds. The next two years we spend here, we're sure will prove even more eventful, but most of us will never forget our first year in Washington High.

THE MARCHING BAND Memorable Events The band did many different things this year, all of which will be remembered a lifetime. Pictured above is the band in one of its many marching formations. They spent many hours on the football field practicing for half-time performances at football games. The Pep Band consisted of all eighty members and they helped to arouse school spirit by playing their peppy yell songs. The basketball pep band is seen below with David Wagner directing it. David helped Mr. Campbell quite often and was in charge of a small band of about twelve players who went to many out of town games. The annual Band Clinic was held in Crosby-lronton this year Many neighboring towns participated. Our VI, , x' 8 .-'lg . Q vga! C' it , Y' ff' tx ga sf i nite band played The Finale from the New World Sym- phony for the judges and received an A rating. They presented a concert in February to the student body and one for the public. In April some of the players took part in a solo and ensemble contest. The Regional State Music Contest was held in Brainerd this year. Mr. Campbell's band also was chosen Band of the Week and had the honor of playing over radio station WCCO. And so another eventful year went by with all the kids putting all their efforts forward to make this year the most successful!

Service to Readers Composed of students who render services to the librarian, Miss Lois White, is the Library Club. They are busy not only during free periods during school hours, but also before school, at noon, and after school. The members of this club do various things to make the library run smoothly, such as checking and shelving books, writing slips for overdue books, Hling cards, book repair, preparation of new books for circulation and making displays. Many other duties are also accomplished. While offering valuable service to the library these girls are helping themselves and others in using the library. They are gain, ing useful information on choosing books and magazines and in- crease their own ability in learning the functions of the library as the filing and reference work necessary for new books under the leadership of Miss White. Besides all their duties, the Library Club members take time out for a fall initiaion picnic and a spring picnic held annually at Miss White's home on Gull Lake. As o reward for their faithful work during the past year, the girls received special awards at the recognition program in the spring.

QQ 99 That Crazy Smith Family The iunior class play, presented on November i9-20, under the direction of Mrs. Francis Norgaard, was a tale of a typical American family. The Smith family is having more than their share of troubles.

Barbara, his girl friend, wants him to stay near home. Matters are complicated by Stewart Brandon and Julie Weston, two college sophisticotes who are trying to help Tony make up his mind. ln the process Tony seems to pay more attention to Stewart's girl friend and vice versa. Sally, Tony's sister, is insulted because no one appreciates her attempts at modern art. Dick Jones, a southern boy and commercial artist, becomes interested in Sally but fails to recognize the signihcance of her painting. Betty and Buddy, Tony's younger brother and sister keep the whole family on their toes trying to keep up with their mischievous antics, while Ma and Pa Smith try to keep peace in the family.

Work began early in the fall with the addition ot new members to replace the ones who graduated the pre- vious spring. An energetic subscription drive was then held. Working in co-operation with the printing com- pany, deadlines were set up for the ensuing year. From then on the staft was rolling along to meet their dead- lines. Supervising the entire Brainonian staff activities was the editor-in-chief, Lesley Dahl. Assisting her, and work- ing under her direction were the associate editors. The business statt, under the direction ot advisor Miss lrma Dell Adams, took care of the Hnancial undertakings. Mrh Don Adamson was the advisor tor the editorial sta . BUSINESS STAFF: T. Templeton, J. Groth, B. Potvin and J. Bates. The photographers were busy taking pictures of school activities. The better photos were sorted out and printed for publication. They also lent their assistance in supply- ing pictures for the school paper. Art work was an important feature in the yearbook. Credit was given to Peggy Bang, who put her artistic talent to work creating the cover design and various sketches throughout the book. As spring drew near, plans were made for the annual banquet. It was a big moment for the under- classmen on the staff. At this impressive occasion the name of the next year's editor and associate editors were announced!

Homemakers of the Future The aim of the FHA is to help members, as the name implies, become the future homemakers of America. The study of foods, meals, clothes, sewing, and interior decorating are all part of the curriculum. Under the leadership of Miss Ann Povaiba, head ofthe W.H.S. home economics depart- ment, the girls in the FHA learned much to help prepare for their future lives. Big money-maker of the year was the sale of stationery, napkins, and small manicure sets. The funds from this protect were used to finance a trip to the district meeting. Members boarded a bus in the fall and took a trip to Braham. Here they attended the annual district meeting of the FHA. On March 8 and 9 the state FHA convention was held in Minneapolis. Betty Soderman, this chapter's secretary, acted as recorder at the conven- tion. Others elected to represent the Brainerd chapter were Sharon Soderman and Phyllis DeRosier. The girls attended a beautiful and impressive formal banquet in the evening at the Leamington Hotel. .loan was given her annual bath. As in previous years, the FHA, armed with soap and water, gave the statue of Joan of Arc a cleaning.

Yes, back in Vienna, and tomorrow I will go back to school. My teachers and classmates will ask me to tell about my experiences among you, and I will. There is so much to tell, I could talk forever. Just now I want to lean back and remember my year in Brainerd. Once again I am sitting in the Greyhound, heading for Brainerd. Here is that feeling again-nervousness, prob- ably fright. I have no idea what is waiting for me in W.H.S. Very soon I get used to the American way of living. I find out that people in Brainerd are no different from my family and friends in Austria. Then comes the first day in school. Everything is strange to me. I do not know what to do, where to go. Weeks pass. I can find my way around and I know people to talk to. There is one fact that seems a little strange because I am not used to it: the large number of extra-curricular activities. I like them though I feel that they take very much time from school subiects. You will probably remember me on hall duty, as a member of the Student Council. I also ioined the Pow-Wow, now I am writing little stories about my impressions of America. I belonged to the Foreign Student Committee. I argued with you in Current Event Club, and I spoke with you in German Club. The rest of the year went quickly, I am homecoming escort again. I can see our queen and remember the homecoming dance. Then came Christmas and the Senior Banquet, and the celebration of the Birthday of Jesus among the Fitzpatricks. The Basketball season, after the game dances in the cafeteria, and the excitement of the tournament games all go too quickly. The Junior-Senior Prom and Graduation left a permanent impression in my memory. My time in Brainerd was over. A wonderful year among wonderful people had gone by. I left Brainerd, as I would have left my home country. The bus trip took me through the South and East. This was one of my last experiences as an A.F.S, foreign exchange student. On July 24, I said good-bye to your country. The Waterman glided slowly out of New York harbor. The gigantic city on Manhattan Island became smaller and smaller. The Fair Lady waved her last farewell as she disappeared in the fog. We were heading homeward, but we left behind what had become a second home. I say good-bye once more to all of you. I hope you will remember me. I hope I gave you some idea of what we Europeans are like. Yours, Herbert Bammer Herb has gotten along just fine with the girls at W,H.S.

Once a week the members met to discuss the topic of the week. They did much reading and were always up to date on the latest world happenings.

Track Despite the return of only four lettermen, the cinder- men started the season off right by defeating the Little Falls Flyers in the first meet of the year. Leading the team throughout the year were Dick Fezler, and Merritt Linzie. The Warriors met with stiff competition at the St. John's contest as only a handful of entries took places. Early spring practice was held in the Franklin gym due to cold weather. Continuous drill provided for mild success in the Conference meet held at St. Cloud, as the Warriors placed third. Merritt Linzie set a new confer- ence record in hurdles competition, as did Dick Fezler in the 440-yard dash. ,Q 64 LQ.- 2 X .rf - '-I --.. QQ N x I .. . . f .Rex V .-ga.,.,,. ,.

Dick Fezler waits for the starting signal. District and Regional Track Meets The Brainerd cindermen went to New York Mills for the District Meet with a strong determination and came home with a well-earned second place and five entrants to the Regional Meet. Dick Fezler capped firsts in the 440 and the high jump while Merritt Linzie took first in both hurdle events to account for four of the Brainerd first places. The other first was contributed by the relay team made up of: Dewey Krueger, Merritt Linzie, Tom Lyscio, and Dick Fezler. Other point-getters were. C. Sears, second in the mile run, T. Lyscio, second in the half mile, D. Krueger in the IOO, S. Jelacic in the shot and discus, and F. Parker with a tie in the pole vault. Lack of depth was the only factor denying the Warriors the District Title. The five entrants in the Regional Meet were: Dick Fezler competing in the 440 and the high jump, Merritt Linzie in the hurdle events, Clarence Sears in the mile run, Tom Lyscio in the half mile, and Dewey Krueger competing with Fezler, Lyscio, and Linzie in the relay. Only Dick Fezler was able to qualify for the State Meet placing second in the 440. He competed in the State Meet and, although not placing, did a fine iob. Loss of such stalwarts as Fezler, Linzie, Sears and Krueger through graduation will leave Coach Miller with a big problem in filling their shoes. 44 W The Warrior relay team whose precision brought them top honors during the entire season. 113 K, ' Left To Right Cocch Wally Errebretson, Dick Avery, Gary Zech, Joe Karnowski, Ray Inigrund.

S Choi: Singing on to success was the sixty-member Washington High School Choir After only a few weeks of rehearsals the choir gave an early Autumn concert. With popcorn hot dogs and hot coFlee were sold at the games Through the eftorts of t this opener the school year began to move swiftly by. During football season pop , , . r ' F bass and tenor sections, a concession stand was built to accommodate the sales. T annual magazine drive was again a success. As winter drew near another concert was presented. The St. Olaf Orchestra wc sponsored and the Luther College Choir was invited to give oi concert here. The choir received top honors at the choir clinic, which was held in Brainerd With tiny flashlight candles flickering in the dark, the choir procession began the mid-winter concert. A Christmas theme was carried out in the music sung by all choirs and glee clubs. Los Angeles was the destination of a tape recording made in school. Here it was made into a twelve-inch record. Free records were given to all senior members of the choir. With the arrival of Spring came preparations for the spring concert which was directed by Paul Christiansen, director of the Concordia College Choir The choir went on a trip May T7 and l8. First stop was in Alexandria where they sang and then to Detroit Lakes where they spent the night. The next day the choir Director, Curtis Hansen. Piano players: SITTING are M. Anderson and S, Nyhus.

Concerts were given not only at the school but also for the Lion's Club, the Rotary, and Nisswa PTA. Smaller groups from the choir sang at many public functions. Credit goes to director, Mr. Curtis Hansen, whose work and encouragement made possible the success of each member of the choir. The Girls' Glee Club and the Choral Club consisting of mixed voices, may be termed as stepping stones to the Senior High School Choir. Assisting the choir in rais- ing funds was one of their aims. Selling at the concsesion stand during football season, working on the magazine drive, and helping to promote ticket sales for choir- sponsored concerts were some of the protects. They also ushered at choir concerts. Music was still uppermost in importance. At the music clinics both groups received high ratings. They performed at a fall concert, a Christmas concert, and also a concert in the spring. As a reward for her outstanding work, Lorraine Spillman, member of the Choral Club, was invited to accompany the choir on their trip to the May Festival. And so, with musical strains ringing clearly, another year drew to a close. As they sang their last concert together, graduation exercises made the grand finale!

Their booth at the County Fair took first place and they went on to the State Fair to win reserve sweepstakes. In the district contest they won lst place in land judging and cow clipping. In October seventeen boys went to the national con- vention ot the Future Farmers ot America in Kansas City, Mo. Also held in October was their eighteenth annual banquet. The principal speaker at the banquet was Dr. George A. Selke, state commissioner ot conservation, a very outstanding speaker. During Future Farmer Week the boys put on a pro- gram at W.H.S. This program told more about the FFA and what it does. To intorm the public about what they do the boys had window displays downtown. A climax to the weeks observance was a trzp to Minneapolis. While in Minneapolis they attended a Laker's game. At the district parliamentary contest this year in J. Exe. C. Blakemnn, and G. Miller. SECOND ROW: H. Cranquist, E, Mc c:-nb, A. Koeiing, E.

Their two toughest competitors were Forest Lake and Crosby-Ironton, who tried desperately to break the iinx. In 1948 the FFA set up a goal of 25 State Farmers by I96O. By I954 their goal was reached, six years ahead ot schedule. This year the total was raised to 34 when Duane Henningson and Harvey Peterson won this award. At the district meeting Larry Shultz was elected presi- dent. This also put him on the district nominating com- mittee. ln the public speaking contest Carl Kremer placed third with his topic, The Promise of Agricultural Research. Leading the group through their successful year with the help of their advisor, Ivir.

On Recognition Day, May l, there were thirty-three ot Vvashington High School's seniors named as honor graduates. The group ot i957 was the largest ever named in Washington High School. The students were given the honor strictly on a scholastic basis. Congratu- latory letters and other awards were presented by prin- cipal Mr. Glen Blackford. To quality for an honor graduate these people must have maintained a B , or better, average throughout their sophomore, iunior and the first halt ot their senior years. The students were very deserving of this honor because it was not easily attained. Many hours of long, hard, con- centrated study and Work go into making an honor CO-VALEDICTORIANS, E l a i n e Veit and Vvayne Olmsted, receiv - , ing their certihcates. 1 ' it W -, R ,455 V ax Rf a ' 4 t pf vf f Y . 128 student.
