Gift-Publisher miNNeA.pouiS pUOLIC LlOttAttV MUSTANG 1962 breck school MINNEAPOLIS, MINNESOTA MR. CHARLES H. KRENZ DEDICATION Brcck is a school which has been formed and served by many dedicated people. Each year the Mustang attempts in its limited way to recognize one of these persons who has given much to Brcck School. We dedicate our 1962 yearbook, composed, we hope, in the Brcck tradition of All-American yearbooks, to a man exemplary of the Brcck tradition of fine teachers, Mr. Charles H. Krenz. Every student, faculty member, or friend of Brcck School who has attended any program or convocation in the past twenty years knows this man, who has so ably provided the music for these occasions. Lest our reader should think that Mr. Krenz's tasks end with his talented musical contributions, a few other of his many activities at the school should be mentioned. Mr. Krenz was a res- . (f4. 7' -Pf idem master in the dormitory at the old school for eight years. He has taught English in every grade from the fifth up as teachers were needed. Mr. Krenz has been active as faculty advisor to both the Bugle and Mustang in past years. Last year he rc-introduccd dramatics to the Brcck scene. Such is typical of this teacher — he is always ready to step in and make something solid come about — for the good of Brcck School and its boys. Always ready to play happy birthday for some squeamish student or restart an off-key attempt at grace, Mr. Krenz, with his smile and congenial ways, is a student favorite. Our hats arc off to you, Mr. Krenz. We dedicate this book to you in the same spirit you dedi-acted the past twenty years of your life to Brcck School. ... to a man exemplary of the Breck tradition of fine teachers. . . . who has so ably provided the music . . . EXPLANATION OF THEME A circle is a unique thing because it has no beginning and no end. It is the most versatile symmetric figure, for at no one point is a circle out of shape. One part is identical with that part across from it. A circle is also a design with a history. The ancient Chinese took their cosmic forces of good and evil and surrounded them with a circle. Thus, the circle symbolized all power and knowledge. Other symbols of the circle arc perfectness, completeness, simpleness, and oneness. The reference to a “family circle is not uncommon. But this same figure of speech can be applied to a smaller or larger group. In any case, the symbols of the circle remain the same. With this in mind, the theme for the 1962 Mustang becomes “The School Circle.” This book is divided into five sections. Prececd-ing each of these sections there is a division page of similar design. A circle with a segment missing has been drawn in the upper left hand comer. Within this circle is the Brcck crest which symbolizes religion, courage, honor, and knowledge. It symbolizes Brcck School. Rays come out of this circle from its missing segment. These rays focus upon a picture which is typical of the activity and a theme which explains the activity. This design attempts to show that the school circle is incomplete without the activity which the missing segment focuses upon.

The purpose was to provide a good well-rounded education for worthy children. Brock’s purpose is still the same today even though Breck has changed much since 1886. Breck first provided the well-rounded education to the sons and daughters of farmers near Wilder, Minnesota as a country day school. As times changed and public schools moved in, the need for Brcck on the prairie decreased and it was moved to St. Paul. Brcck opened in St. Paul in 1917 as a college preparatory school. Since then courses have been modernized and the school has passed through a period as a military school during and following World War II. Brcck has moved three times, first to a new site in St. Paul in 1922 and, after adding several buildings there, to Minneapolis in 1957, where it is now. “Brcck was founded to provide a well-rounded education for worthy children.” The well-rounded education may be called the complete education for it deals with ever)' phase of a boy’s life. Though basically an academic institution, Brcck puts a great deal of stress on religion and athletics. It tries to produce a whole boy who is intellectually, physically and spiritually ready for college and life after college. Breck docs this by requiring a stiff college preparatory curriculum. There is also a compulsory athletic program that requires each boy to participate in a sport each season. The boys have a choice of sport and they play with other boys of equal ability. Brcck also requires a Sacred Studies course. It is these last two points that make Breck different from most other schools and most people feel this is a worthwhile difference. 6 THE REVEREND CANON F. DOUGLAS HENDERSON. D.D. HEADMASTER Canon Henderson was bom in Sackville, New Brunswick, Canada on July 31st, 1916. In 1935 he graduated from Bridgewater High School, Nova Scotia, entering the University of King's College the fall of the same year. Ordained in May, 1941 he was placed in charge of the Parish of Georgetown, Prince Edward Island. He became Rector of St. James’ Parish in Port Hill in 1942. In 1945 he became Director of Christian Education at St. Peter’s Cathedral, Charlottetown, P.E.I. In December, 1946 he came to the United States to take the position of Director of Christian Education at the Church of St. John the Evangelist in St. Paul, where he remained until the spring of 1948. He was made a Canon of St. Mark’s Cathedral in 1948 by Bishop Keeler. From 1948 until December, 1952 Canon Henderson was the first Director of Christian Education of the Diocese of Minnesota. In addition, he started a camping program for the Diocese of Minnesota at Cass Lake, and taught at the Carle-ton Summer Conference for six years. On January 1st, 1953 he became Rector and Headmaster of Brcck School. In 1956 he led the school to establish a new campus at the present site on the River Road in Minneapolis. In May, 1959 he received a Doctor of Divinity-degree from Scabury-Western Theological Seminary-. Canon Henderson is characterized by leadership, sincerity and friendliness. 7 From left to right: Morrow Peyton. William Powell, Robert Giles, Jr., the Rev.

TRUSTEES Each member is elected to a three-year term, with the Executive Committee being exempt from this rotation. The Executive Committee is composed of the following: Bishop Kellogg; Mr. Anderson; Mr. Morrow Peyton, Treasurer; Mr. William Powell, Secretary; Canon Henderson, the Headmaster; and two members-at-large, Mr. Walter Andrews and Mr. James Binger. 8 SEATED, Irfi to right: Richard Hegentr (Fonn V prrfcct).

STUDENT COUNCIL The Student Council brings the voice of the student body to an organized focal point. It has its roots in the class meetings. The president and vice president of each Form are representatives on the Council. They bring their class’s ideas before the representatives of all the other Forms. Many times the procedure is just the opposite. The Council will submit one of its concerns to the student body via the Form meetings. The Prefects, also Council members, arc representatives of the Administration. Some of the matters which the Student Council dealt with this past year were candy sales. Homecoming button sales, the Homecoming Dance, the Mid-Winter Formal, the United Fund Drive, and a St. Barnabas Hospital Volunteer program. The officers elected were: as president, Peter Johnson; as secretary, Michael Mishou; as treasurer, Fred Junger; and as parliamentarian, Randy Schapiro. The Rev. Ernest Campbell was the faculty advisor. The Student Council met every Monday, its meetings following “Robert’s Rules of Order.” After the meetings the minutes were posted on the bulletin board for the student body to read. Ultimately then, the Student Council consists of the main elements of the student body, assembled in a small group which is a more organized seat for discussion. 9 From left to right: John Peyton, tirawier; Peter Johraon, vice-pre ident; Oakley Pearaon. lerrctary; Fred Jungcr, president. SENIOR CLASS Usually a senior class article expresses surprise that the hoys have reached their senior year. In this class, however, there was no surprise because every boy knew in the back of his mind that lie would make it. Perhaps this makes them sound like a “cocky” bunch but they aren't. They are proud and hold their heads high, but with a good reason. One has only to look at the record they have compiled in their years at Breck to understand this attitude. Academically, in College Board and other tests they have done better as a whole than any other senior class has done for many years. The ability they have shown on these tests has also been carried over into the classrooms. They have all compiled respectable records and they wouldn’t be here if they hadn’t lxxau.se the school stresses academic work. Athletically, they have contributed to varsity sports for three, and even four, years. Each year this contribution has grown because of the development of talent and even the discovery of new talent among their number. In football this year, for instance, nine of them started on the first team and gained the respect of all their opponents. They were told at the beginning of the year that they would lead the school and they have. Seven of them arc Prefects who lead the Upper Forms. These Prefects arc greatly aided by the example the rest of the class sets. Their future is also bright. They will be represented in colleges and universities from New England to California. There is not one of their number who doesn’t show great promise of entering a college and doing very well. They are proud of their accomplishments and prospects, but they arc also proud of their school and thankful to it for the help it has given them in their development. They will be missed as they will miss Breck but they will leave many things to lx- remembered by — for example, the footprints of some of their more infamous members present'd in cement for posterity ( or at least until the city tears up 42nd Street again). to Entered Breck 1961, soccer, v. 6, basketball: j.v. 6, tennis: v. 6. “Rudy” was bom in Cunco, a small city in the northwestern part of Italy. It is very near the first section of the Alps. Last year he won an American Field Service scholarship for a year of study and experience in the United States. In August, 1961, Rudy came to Minneapolis to stay at the Stanley Smith’s house and to attend Breck School as a senior. In Italy Rudolfo has already attended the first three years of the Liceo Scientifico, which corresponds to the American high school. When he returns to Italy, he will still have to study for two years in order to graduate. Rudy’s Italian school doesn’t have extracurricular activities so he spends most of his time at his favorite hobby, building and flying model airplanes. He also takes an active part in his Italian Boy Scout troop. Rudy seems to be a typical Italian in that he speaks more with his hands. His waving gestures and shrugs of the head added spice to any class discussion. Rudy has had only three years of English in Italy so his difficulty in communication is understandable. Nevertheless, he is a very naturalacting and frank boy. Not liking something he would come right out and say so but, as a gentle- man, he listened more than he spoke. Rudy was right at home on the soccer field since he had played it in Italy previously but he couldn’t understand football. He said the boys were standing around more than they were playing. He is used to action all the time. If Rudy is typical, Italy must be filled with some very nice people. li You can have this along with Max’s spaghetti.

There is rarely a situation which is not brightened by one of his humorous and ironical comments. No one is fooled by his mock-gruffness, often characteristic of his approach, because he gives it away with a smile. On the athletic field he is, however, much more in earnest. Dick was one of our most determined and spirited participants. He played end for the Mustangs, winning letters for each of his four years, and a place on the All-Confcrcncc team in his junior and senior years. Dick was captain of the basketball team, and his six foot four stature helped him to score an average of fourteen points per game. No one was abler than he, with his leadership qualities, to rally the team and say the cheering words that renewed its determination to win. In the spring, Dick was one of our most valuable point-winners. His stride in the 880 and in the mile relay drew everyone’s attention. If Dick is given a responsibility he accepts it seriously. He showed fine qualities of leadership in his actions as junior class prefect and Student Council representative. Rich graduates as a well-rounded, well-liked boy. 12 Well, that’s the last of the passenger pigeons. Entered Breck 1953, soccer: 5,6, basketball: fr. 3; j.v. 4; v. 5,6, dramatics 4,5, Bugle staff 4,5,6, Mustang staff 6. Gary is the only person who really sees eyes to eye with “Big Vem” Mikkelscn. In stature he stands six feet six, and in participation he stands just as high, if not higher. Whenever and wherever there is a job to be done Gary is only too willing to cooperate in getting it done. He proved an invaluable member of the Mustang staff this year, both as a copy writer and as a typist. Gary probably likes to be active in things because it gives vent to his wonderful imagination. Never will the German class forget his fine direction of their plays. Oh, the characters he could think up; Among his more infamous ones is Aunt Fanny, who wrote a regular article in each edition of the Bugle. Gary, because of his interest in plays and character sketches, has been a member of Breck's Drama Club. Gary likes “to while away his time” by himself. It's not unusual to find him reading one of Winston Churchills novels, listening to classical records, or even composing some of his own “tunes.” He also has an unusual ability to devour foreign languages. Whether it is Japanese, German, or English, Gary displays a fine grasp of each. His diction is wonderful, and he often makes tapes for the language laboratory. Garyr will reach great heights (no figure of speech intended!). 13 I’ve had quite a coughin’ spell today. John has been around Brcck ever since fourth grade and you can tell it; the qualities Brcck seeks to develop arc ground into John to the core. Scholastically, John achieves his grades through genuine effort. This quality follows him wherever he goes, especially out to the athletic fields. John is known as the “sparkplug” of Brcck's teams. His hustle and desire in football, for iastancc, have helped him overcome his size disadvantage and made him one of the best centers Breck has had in many years. This same hustle helps all the other members of the teams, too. In wrestling and golf John works just as hard. Along with gaining the respect of his opponents in athletics he has gained the respect of all his classmates. He is well known for his ability to give and take a joke. Many of these jokes concern his “roller skate” (Volkswagon), which the girls-think is “cute.” His fame is no less in the field of big game hunting. Week-ends could never come fast enough for “Big John” and his 30-30 brush rifle. A person with nicknames is a person people enjoy knowing. John's more notable ones are “Kooz- ic and “Fuss.” He is a joiner, participating with all the fellows and not just one group. John will recharge any gap with a spark. 14 Zat’s etc end of dat foose!

All the students of Brcck make themselves felt in one area or another in school, but no one has done as much in as many areas as Pete. It is only necessary to look at the list of his awards to see his worth. “Perfectionism in responsibility seem to be the key words in Pete’s mind. He has won a place of respect in the eyes of all his classmates because they realize his sense of responsibility. Pete has been elected president of his class for the past five years. (This year he was class vice president.) That he is Senior Prefect seems to say what the faculty and administration think of him. One of Pete’s outstanding achievements is in the field of journalism. He was a Bugle writer one year, became editor of the Bugle the next year, and this year was editor of the yearbook. This Mustang shows the quality of his work. Pete’s desire and determination arc evident in athletics as well. He was a keystone on the football squad, a topflight heavyweight wrestler, and a promising shot putter. When a boy is this outstanding, one of the best compliments that can be given him is to say that he is human. Pete is human and one of the best liked boys in school. It will be many years before Brcck finds a boy who will work as hard and accomplish as much as Pete. 15 Go cast, young man. go cast.

It seems that everything you say about some people is good. Such is the case with Fred. He is easy to get along with and one of the best liked seniors. Fred is a casual worker, but a dependable worker. This coupled with the class’s confidence in his leadership has made him the senior president. Academically, Fred has a very creative mind. He ranked highest in the Scholastic Aptitude Tests and was the only senior to qualify in the National Merit Scholarships. Fred is a very practical fellow. He has a “working” knowledge. You might think that Fred’s academic achievements have made him one-sided. But “Fuzzy” is very active socially, also. He attends all of Brcck's dances, his dates coming from near and far. Another big point to add to Fred’s list of activities is his athletic interests. For the past three years, his outstanding work on the football team have earned him the nickname, “Tank.” He is an All Conference offensive guard. Also, in hockey, Fred makes his team spirit and drive felt. Incidentally, Fred has earned 11 varsity letters. Fred’s amiable personality and wide range of talents have made him a success in whatever he docs. It is a compliment to Fred that he has kept so natural and unaffected by the things he has done. Breck is a loser because Fred is the type of person a school loves to see come and hates to sec go- J 16 So he thought that this would fox me. Entered Breck 1956, football: j.v. (mgr.) 3,4; v.

Ok oma± HooCin 3 jz[[ £.’Uj Tom is so valuable to Breck that they have kept him in the “cage” for four years, and many people have expressed regret that he will escape this year. In those four years he has been a team manager, and for the last two years, Head Manager of Athletics. This year Tom holds the post of Athletic Prefect. As a manager Tom has listened to many gripes, but he has taken it all in the stride of his job. He’s a hard worker, but never too serious to pass up a joke or two ... or three. A lot of his success can be accredited to his organizational ability. In anything from sorting athletic uniforms to guiding the senior birdseed sales Tom was a willing hand. Still much credit is due his V.W. bus. Tom’s route to the “butcher shop” would cure any casualty. Tom’s friendly greeting and smiling face in the halls has brightened the day’s of almost every student at one time or another. His readily offered assistance has many times come to the aid of students and faculty alike. For instance, he took over the pop sales at football games and a good pan of Homecoming preparations, just when it looked as if it wouldn’t get done. When Tom leaves, it will be very difficult to find a single person who would or could do the work that he did. I’ve just got to get out of that cage! 17 Entered Brcck 1956, football: j.v. 4, (mgr.) 5,6. basketball: j.v. 4, (mgr) 5,6, track: (mgr.) 4.5.6, class secretary 3, Master's Award: social studios 2. science 2.

Academically, Wade is among the leaders of his class, and will probably remain so throughout college. Having discovered that success comes not without hard work, Wade was rewarded for his fine work in the fields of government and English by being selected last year to represent Brcck at Boys’ State. Everybody is proud of what he added to “his party.” Give Wade an inch and lie’ll take a mile . . . but in the right direction. He always makes use of individual capacity. Not being especially skilled in athletic competition, Wade has kept close contact with the sports nevertheless In-being a very dependable manager. Dependability has also made Wade a reputable editor of the Bugle. Again hard work made his efforts successful. What’s more important. Wade puts his efforts toward supporting others. If you see someone in a red sports jacket “swinging up a storm,” telling some “punny story, or going mad over a set of drums, it’s just Wade. In English class he’s the “jargon master”; where’s there is a drum set he’s “Kruppa II ; at dances lie’s “Elvis Unlimited.” As an individual Wade emphasizes his own capacities, but supports others’. Drat! The window’s stuck and the turn signab don’t work.

Now that lie is about to graduate we know he .will go on to bigger and better things, maybe even a Volkswagen. “Len was always a mover, whether it was in cars, on dates, or in athletics. He was one of the “Three Horsemen’ on the varsity football squad and a member of the “Big Four” on the wrestling team. In the spring lA e is a mainstay on Breck’s baseball diamond. After a little prodding Lee really takes hold of a situation. Once he even claimed he was going to wrestle the heavy weight, 175, and 165 divisions all at once! “M.D.” is very active in things outside his studies. For several years now he has participated in the glee club and choir. He has spent his Saturdays working as a volunteer at St. Barnabas Hospital. No matter what he does, he really likes doing it. He shows this by his effort. Who will forget the frizzy little hair growing an unusually long way down Ia c’s neck, the thick rimmed glasses, and the munchcrs that give Lee the name of Beaver? You’ll never see Lee standing around. He’s a climber headed straight for the top. 19 Ya bctcha goorn!

Mike worked hard in everything he did, from athletics to academics. Last fall Mike often centered for the Mustangs. In wrestling and track as well, never was there a boy with so much determination. Hard work at the books also placed Mike frequently on the honor roll. What’s more, the second formers couldn't have had a better Prefect. The dance committees of the future will certainly miss Mike’s help and organizational abilities. And what is Mr. Owen going to do without Mike’s participation in the glee club? Remember the Homecoming poster contest? This was just an example of Mike's gimmicks for raising spirit in the school. Mike does have one fault though. He moved from St. Paul to Minneapolis! Brcck boasts a boy with an eagerness to learn, an ability to organize, and a capacity to work hard. Mike will long be remembered for his perfectionism and unyielding effort. 20 Your grade U 65!... 75?... 85?

J foxman. c Afzhon If someone yells “Nellie” and a fellow muttering about Swedes and Norwegians chasing through weeds answers, that boy is bound to be George Nelson. In looking at this big blond Scandinavian one might think he just came from the old country, but George’s personality and disposition would be a welcome sight anywhere and everywhere. “Nellie” is the most natural boy in the senior class. You can believe the things he says; and when he offers himself, you can be sure that there are no strings attached. He is honest and teachers need never expect involved excuses for the work he doesn’t complete. George is a refreshing individual, and no one could ever regret knowing him. George can be a hard worker whenever he desires to be, but he always appears fresh and untouched by the worries that plague many of the seniors. Many times students have responded with peals of laughter to the ridiculous predicaments he gets into. George doesn’t seem overly concerned about going along with the gang; he has helped foster music at Breck by his work in the glee club and band. In football “Limpy” has had a hard-luck season, being slowed down by injuries, but normally the ath- letic department receives much in efTort and results from this big boy. Every comer, hall, and classroom of Breck will miss the light of George’s smile and his good-naturedness. When he graduates, George will take with him a warmth and sincerity that will be difficult to replace. Once upon a time Rip . .. van . .. Win . .. 7.7.7! .

George always has ideas for any situation and isn’t afraid to voice his opinion. Vs captain of the soccer team, George showed his love of conditioning along with a great will to win. George’s name switched from “Frenchy” to “Turkey” after his jaunt to that country through the A.F.S. Now the walls of Brcck arc filled with George’s interpretations of Turkish politics and the nauseating smell of a water pipe. George was the boy who brought the piece of paper with Robert’s Rules of Disorder to school; thus he is responsible for the panicky situation in which the class presidents found themselves. As evidenced by all the awards listed above, George is also the serious student type. Many is the time when he can lx heard bellowing throughout the library to discuss such things as the date of the previous night. Along with this “Frenchy” is ever present at Breck so- cial functions, and it is always interesting to see whom he will bring next. Without a question George has been a very loyal member of Brcck’s community. 22 Ah! Smell that Turkey. Entered Brcck 1959, soccer: v. 5, 6, basketball: j.v. 5, wrestling: baseball: 4,5,6.

He was one of the two boys admitted to our class when we were sophomores, so he got a late start. He, however, wasted no time in making the Emeritus list and seriously threatening the Cum Laude list every marking period. He was one of the junior students admitted to the Cum Laude Society last year, and he has constantly proved that he was worthy of the award. Oak works very hard on school work, the Bugle, the Mustang, and as a student instructor in the chemistry lab. Athletically Oak is handicapped by his size, but he has found his place on the soccer team. He has lettered two years on the varsity soccer team. He is also a fierce competitor on the wrestling and j.v. baseball teams, and his assortment of basketball shots are a legend at Brcck. Oak has also added much to other athletics by his presence; he is one of the mast enthusiastic fans at Brcck. As a person. Oak is anything but small. He £p£aTio z is friendly and well liked — he was elected secretary of the senior class. Almost everyone has laughed one time or another at his sometimes odd jokes. He will be long remembered at Breck for his accomplishments and by the girls for what he didn't accomplish. 23 Think big Oak: it’s the little things that count.

In school no one does his homework more conscienciously than Dale; In athletics no one works harder in practice or is more dependable in games. Dale played tackle for the first string football squad, wrestled in the winter, and hefted the shot during track season. The caption for this picture, however, is not “All work and no play make Dale a dull boy.” Dale is involved whenever there is something just for fun too. Dale was known for his heroic adventures in wild duck ponds. His week-end hunting extravaganzas were the talk of the school. Dale has also gained a little fame because of the “car” he drives. It is a funny contraption called an “-csoto.” Approach Dale and his first response will probably lx “What? Where? Who? Me? Oh!” After a laugh that could only be Dale's, he'll get down to business. Dale is a very casual and nonchalant boy. The picture is now complete. Here is a boy who works as hard as he plays, with seldom a worry. It must be a Rembrandt.

Jofm Wfiitnsy 'J )s.ijton “Like father, like son” — John’s father is banker and John has been treasurer of his class for the last two years. There hasn't been a large discrepancy yet, so John is trusted with the finances. John is also trusted with part of the destiny of Breck’s hockey team this year. He has played on the varsity team for four years and each year contributed his “all” to gain the respect of his fellow players who elected him captain this year. This respect is found not only in hockey but also in football and track. In football John's size is his only drawback and he has more than made up for it with heart. Last year he was “most valuable” on the j.v. and this year to everybody’s surprise, he started on defense for the varsity and in the last game scored on a long, determined run. In track all he does is run, and he is said to be one of the best runners in the M.I.S.L. John has also added a bright side to the school with his clever comments in his column, “Morries Stories,” in the Bugle. No one has escaped his barbs, but on the other hand, no one has resented them. This has made John one of the most successful journalists at Brcck within recent years. John will leave a gap in the school when he leaves, but it is certain that it won’t be in the finances. Breck will miss the hot-rod Falcon, and the sharp wit of John Peyton. 25 Eat, drink, and be Morric. Entered Brock 1956, football: j.v. 3.4,5; v. 6. hockey: j.v. 3,4,5; v. 6. track: 3,4,5.6.

He could tell stories (and oh what stories!), turn a speech class into hysterics, and more important could take as much joking as he dished out. Rather than shooting for something by himself. Rollie usually liked to work with other people. But nevertheless he worked: sometimes he would start a project such as a class party, or at other times he would gladly help others in decorating a dance. Boys like Rusty are needed to unite a group behind a task. Anyone likes to work hardest at the things he likes best. Race taught a skiing club this summer. In other areas Roland ran as fullback on Breck’s second varsity squad, skated on the hockey team, and threw the shot in spring sport. But whether he liked something or not, he would participate, and he would work hard. Once Rusty was awarded a Master’s Certificate for Spanish. Rollie placed a girl as a Homecoming attendant and at other social affairs always added a laugh or two plus the company of some very nice dates. Race was a riot! 26 You load sixteen tons ...

More important yet, he has the ability to meet people and make friends. Though not an intellectual giant, John can sell himself with a wonderful “gift of gab.” Perhaps it is this gift that keeps him in the top third of his class! Participation applies to John in the athletic sense also. Last year on the track team, he found a latent power for hurdling and put this power to good use by winning the low hurdles at St. John’s Relays (no relation). Last fall John received an honorable mention on the all-conference M.I.S.L. football team. In basketball John is an asset in any game.

WifUiam Scott Twins arc often contrasts or have contrasting qualities. Many times one twin is a forward, outgoing person and the other twin seems withdrawn or at least quieter. In many respects the Reay twins follow this. Bill Rcay is the quieter of the two. However, Bill should not be discussed in contrast with John because he is a different type of person and a wonderful boy in his own right. As mentioned above, Bill is quiet; this quietness is the result of judgement, though. Bill does not charge into things with banners waving; he thinks over his decision and carefully proceeds from it. This self-confidence of Bill’s always shows up in his school work. He does good, sound work. What is more important, Bill is consistent in whatever he does. This is typical in his athletic activities. Bill is a fine wrestler, having wrestled varsity for four years. In addition to wrestling he uncovered a new talent by becoming the top scorer on the soccer team. Bill is a lasting friend to those who know him. Many people, teachers and students alike, appreciate his respect for others. In Bill Reay Breck graduates a fine boy.

Monks arc thought of as peaceful and benevolent men, kind to humans and animals alike. This makes Breck unique, because it has a “Monk” who is an enthusiastic bird and fowl killer. The reason for the nickname must be Pete’s haircut. Although not a big boy, “Renna” plays a big part in athletics; he is what Duke would call a Tiger. He has more “guts per cubic foot” than anyone at Breck and this really shows up in his performances on the ice. Pete has lettered in Varsity Hockey since he came to Breck. Pete is a friendly guy and although he is pretty quiet, everybody notices when “Renna” isn’t around. He is an active member of his class; Pete was elected class treasurer one year and just recently donated his dog to the Senior Room. In the class room, Pete is not a “goof-off”; Mr. Owen has been pleased with his performance in the Breck Manner-chor and the quality of his extra-credit 500 word themes. When Pete graduates, Breck will lose the nickname and quiet determination, the athletic depart- ment will lose a sport spitfire, but most of all the advisory room, the library, and the Senior Room will not resound with the sounds of thrilling hunting escapades at Rcnncbohm Pond. 30 I'll bet Samson was a Roundhead.

He is always amiable and friendly, and as is often so with persons of good breeding, quiet and not overly conspicuous. His actions seem always to lx governed by rock-solid good sense. Anyone that has followed him on the road can vouch for his meticulous driving; if not just at the speed limit, he is a little under it, but never over it; this meticulousness lie practices in other areas too, as his studies place him consistently on the Emeritus Honor Roll. In classes he usually picks the seat nearest the teacher so as not to miss anything that goes on. Randy’s three major sports are football, basketball, and baseball. He is a hard, willing worker in these, playing with determination and drive. Whenever something extracurricular, such as a dance, needs organizers and people to help, Randy is one of the first people to help. He can lx depended upon. None of these qualities has escaped classmates’ or faculty’s notice, as was evident by his election to Prefect. All Randy’s twelve years of school have been at Breck, and Breck is indeed proud to list him among its sons, in the fullest sense; with him goes a part of Breck School. . 31 No wonder I deep late in the morning!

He is always cheerful and has a rollicking sense of humor, but is not obtrusive nor overly conspicuous. He can lx relied upon to give unstinting help on class projects. This year Dave has been host to our Italian exchange student. He was himself among Brcck’s candidates for the AFS summer program, and had he been chosen, he certainly would have been a suitable representative. If you’re looking for him, and don’t hear his Monza, he may be in the Spanish room arguing with Mr. Uram, playing on the golf course, in the hallway or the library talking about his last dancing partner, or carousing at the Wayzata Country Club, but not studying. Not that he never studies, but only when it's unavoidable. Dave is not large of stature, but that has not prevented him from actively participating in football, basketball, and golf with a measure of success. Team morale has always bcnefittcd from his warm encouragement and buoyant spirits. Wherever he goes after graduation, he will un-doubtly live happily and amiably; making new friends and acquaintances will be no difficulty.

As co-captain of the varsity football team, he displayed an unusual capacity to lead and a driving will to win. These characteristics show what makes Lee a good athlete. Lee is also considered by any of his classmates as a good friend. He is a very modest person. Lee is not at all self-assertive, but when spoken to, he is relaxed and congenial. However, friendly Sutt turns into a beast when he gets behind the wheel of his “Black Buzzard.” No one has ever seen Lee drive through the obstacle course (commonly called 42nd Street) at 90 per and ever forgotten it. Besides being a football star and a crazy driver, Lee is also a hockey star and a very good pole vaultcr. “Meatball” is a natural athlete who threatens the M.I.S.L. records everytime he practices. 'Hie seemingly shy Sutt becomes a dashing casanova when the girls arc around (that is, if Lee is around when the girls are around!) Seriously though, Lee has added much to Breck's total scheme, both as an athlete and as a classmate. Breck is sure to lose a loyalty-plus factor in Lee. 33 Boy. I thought I was lost!

Jofm {ZcLvaxcl Brock seniors have many claims to fame — the things they do and say, the girls they know, the cars they drive. However John Walsh is the only senior who has a different car every time you turn around. Could this be because he is a member of the notorious Johnson-Schapiro-Walsh car pool? Aside from his driving escapades, the rest of John’s life rarely comes to the fore. He is usually the quiet, almost bashful type. Yet, this silence does not mean that John does nothing. He is a “silent partner” in the senior class, a person who does things and does them well with a minimum of fanfare. In athletics, he takes his silent characteristics and modifies them to give a silent but deadly impression. This especially shows up in the sport of wrestling in which John has participated for three years and of which he was elected captain this year. “Big John’’ was given the nickname of “H.B.” (Hard-Boiled Haggerty). In the classroom John is a hard worker. Here again, he is quiet, but he always gets his work done. When John leaves Breck, the school will miss the sense of his presence for no matter how he blends with the background he is always there. 34 John. John!! JOHN!!!

Though not athletically minded, Fred has participated in Brcck’s soccer program for the past two years. He is a consistent and reliable player. Fred is really a manager at heart: not only in athletics, but also in other school activities such as the yearbook, pop sales, and dance committees. His serious and businesslike air has made Fred some firm friendships around Breck. Though quiet on the outside, Fred is dynamic on the inside. He has an unusual capacity at financing. Fred was business manager for the Mustang, having to organize a candy sales drive and yearbook advertiscments. Fred is the life of every dance as a conversation piece with his snappy red vest and black suit. He has a quality of lx ing easy to know and to get along with.

UPPER AND LOWER SCHOOLS The school circle is not an imaginary thing, but it is shaped out of something. The basic material for this school circle is students. A school may have a beautiful building, exemplary faculty, and a fine administration but if it lacks a student body, its facilities are empty and useless. Therefore the students in the upper and lower schools arc the reason for Breck School. Breck has a physical plant unlike that of many schools. All the parts of its school circle arc in the radius of one building. Such an arrangement keeps the school a single community of relationships; it keeps the upper and lower schools close to each other. It is often said that one must begin at the beginning; the foundations must be firm. This is why Breck has a lower school. A child is impressionable and must be guided in the right direction. The lower school shapes a student into a rough mold. The upper school polishes this mold. Here a student breaks away from learning the fundamentals and learns the value of applying these fundamentals. He becomes a more independent member of Brcck’s school circle. Eventually, as a senior he graduates as a well-rounded boy. 37 • CLASS OF ’63 This year it would have been quite a trick to find an aspect of Brcck School life in which the junior class was not involved. They elected as their class officers: Bill Harley, president; Nick Goddard, vice-president; Judd Hess, secretary; and Fred Webber, treasurer. Tin-class advisors were Mr. Roth and Mr. Marr, and the fifth form prefect was Dick Hegencr. Academically, many of them received Cum Laudc or Emeritus nonors. Among the leaders of the class were Chuck Carlson, Bob Fronk, Dave Hancock, and Barney Steele. The junior class dared to break the Brcck tradition of only four dances a year by sponsoring dances of their own. In the field of sports the juniors were also outstanding. Blair Jenncss was awarded all-confcr-cncc defensive guard, and Bill Harley received honorable mention as halfback. Other juniors who shared the varsity limelight were Nick Goddard, Judd Hess, Rod Keith, Steve Kingsbury, Barney Steele, and Dick Yore. Be watching for this class in the future; they’ll make ’63 easy to remember. 38 Psst! It’s Potato Spuds by two lengths. 39 Officers: L to R Nick Goddard, vice pres.; Fred Webber, treas.; Bill Harley pres.; Judd Hess, see. CLASS OF ’64 This year as in the past, this class has been a success and an asset to Breck School. The class officers during the year were: Ken San-some, president; Richard Desnick, vice-president; Mike Tangcn, Secretary; and Dick Hecren, treasurer. The advisors were Mr. Krenz and Mr. Skari; the form prefect was George Pattison. The leadership of the sophomore class is worthy of note. Two of their number started the year right by playing on the varsity football team. Dick Hecren and Phil Heslcy both saw a lot of action. Other varsity sports also found fourth formers on their squads — Jim 1st as Dick Hecren and Bob Murphy in basketball, Judd Herrmann and Bob Mudge in wrestling, and Dick Hecren and Bob Murphy in baseball. Needless to say, the fourth form made up the bulwark of the glee club, choir, and dramatics groups. Also highlighted was the class sponsored Freshman-Sophomore dance in April. It was a well decorated dance and enjoyed by those in attendance. To them and to the school, the next two years should be highly profitable and enjoyable for the class of '64.

CLASS OF ’65 The freshman class proved its abilities for success in the many diverse areas of school life. Their role in various activities will increase as they move into higher forms, as will their knowledge, skills, and good sense. It is easy to predict a bright future for them. They were represented in almost cycry activity: in dramatics, journalism, glee club, choir, and in all sports. Prominent freshmen who were elected to po- sitions as class officers are: Walter Heustis, president; James Hayes, vice-president; Clarence Holt, secretary; John Ixx mis, treasurer. Fred Junger was prefect for the freshman class; Mr. Nielsen and Mr. Uram were its advisors. One of their most important contributions to the school sphere was a conjoined effort with the fourth form — the Freshman-Sophomore Dance. 42 From left to right, FIRST ROW’: Mark Partridge. Lam- Rom.

Many of the boys successfully made the honors lists. They also had many good athletes in their class who showed what they could do in football, basketball, wrestling, and baseball. Their social events this year were well planned and enjoyed by all. The class officers elected were: Anthony Harrison, president; Fred Lott, vice-president; Bill Pittman, secretary; and Steve Holland, treasurer. Their prefect was Mike Mishou, and their ad- visors were Mr. Heaser and Mr. Hovland. This year was a year of changes for. Breck School. Two new additions to the second form faculty were Mr. Neilson in biology and Mr. Sawdon in the language department. This class was distinguished by having as many foreign students as the senior class! Omcr Saygin from Turkey had no difficulty getting into the swing of things at Breck.

CLASS OF ’67 There were thirty-seven boys in the first form this year. All of them took the big step from the lower school to the upper school in stride. The ease of this transition was evident by the top grades achieved by many of the first form students. Paul Tietz lead the class academically; however, many students pressed him hard for that lead. There was a strong characteristic of leadership in the first form, on the athletic field as well as in the classroom. Dave Adcrly lead the seventh grade “green” team to a tic with St. James in a tough, well-played football game. There were also seventh grade players on the eighth grade team! These were Boh Flager, Rich Bauder, Vance Hartman, and Bob Musser. The class officers of the first form were John Cole, president; Clint Miller, vice president; Bill Cordingly, secretary; and Bill Brisley. treasurer. Randy Schapiro served as the first form prefect. The faculty advisors were Mr. Hardman and Mr. Sawdon.

They arc the directing force within the school’s program. Relating this to our school circle, the administration is the compass that draws the circle. They set the margins only as guideposts within which the students can strive as high as possible. The administration keeps the circumference in proportion while social events, athletics, and extracurricular activities fill the circle. Brcck’s faculty is a governing or supervising body. They choose the pen point with which to draw the school circle. In Brcck’s case, this is a very fine point. They are also concerned with the texture of the material this circle encompasses. The higher the grade of paper is, the better the circle stands out; the better the quality of the students, the more pronounced is the school. Faculty members communicate their experiences, both academically and personally, which will help the student round off his designs. The quality of the school depends on the quality of its faculty and administration. GOOD-BYE MISTER CAMPBELL Brcck School says a positive good-bye to Rev . Campbell. We are sad to see him leave but we are more happy to see that he has an opportunity to establish his own parish. Mr. Campbell’s most attracting attribute was his love of children. Inside Brcck he was a chaplain, a j.v. football coach, a wrestling coach, and a track coach. Outside Brcck he is the director of the Cass Lake Episcopal Camp in northern Minnesota. There could be no more accommodating gentleman in any of these activities. We all wish Rev. Campbell the best of luck, but with a faith such as his what more help does he need? ADMINISTRATION MR.

Rather than being extra activities. Homecoming, the All-School Christmas program, and the Mid-Winter Formal arc essential. Brcck strives to develop the well-rounded boy; academically, athletically, and socially. This last phase is so important because it spells the success of the boy communicating with the world around him. Be it a semi-formal or formal dance, a banquet, or a choral program the boy is faced with communication either from a talking or a listening point of The events are planned to be colorful and a change of routine. They are planned to be relaxing activities where the boy can give vent to the pressures that have built up within him. Likewise, the special events give color to the school circle. They take away the coarseness of the lead pencil and replace it with pastels. The circle is more appealing to the eyes with these social activities shading it. The student body is more wholesome, participating not in one-sided, but well-rounded activities. view. HOMECOMING CORONATION Dick escorts Barb to the dance. Queen Barb’s court applaudcs her Homecoming reign. Dick shows kingly hegemony. The royal court leaves the star? . An afternoon victory in the Homecoming game added extra merriment to the traditional coronation and dance festivities. The ceremony of crowning the Queen commenced with a march of the candidates down the central aisle, led by the previous year’s queen, Sandy Savage. Randy Schapiro was the master of ceremonies, and the varsity football team coach, Don Saat er, announced the new queen, Barbara Burns. At the dance, a varied program of music was played by Don Mau and his band. The decorations suggested autumn and football, and included cornstalks, pennants, and a fountain. Refreshments were purveyed by the Mothers Club. John awl Arlene show quick approval as queen is announced. 72 STANDING, John Walsh, John Peyton, lav Sutton.

Leonardo de Ccrati MID-WINTER FORMAL The Mid-Winter Formal which took place on January 27, had as its theme “An Evening in Italy.” The decorations were highlighted by a seventy-five foot mural of an Italian street scene, painted by Rudolfo Cerati. Pillars, a fountain, and a multitude of flowers were suggestive of an Italian garden. Rich Clausen and his Orchestra provided the music. The rituals of the receiving line, the Grand March, and the Senior Ladies’ Ceremony were executed according to long standing tradition. A debt of thanks is owed to the dance committee — Rudi Cerati, Wade Larkin, Lee McDonald, George Pattison. and Randy Scha-piro — and to the Breck Mothers’ Club for their provision of refreshments. 78 Cloud Nine had no vacancies following die ceremony. The senior ladies received a pendant as a remembrance of the dance. ’Hie Grand March is another well-taken tradition. 'Hie punch was a real knockout.

Yet it lacks the perfect proportion that the circle exhibits. In the same sense, a school filled with “egg-heads” docs not have a school circle but a school ellipse. To round out a school ellipse there must be an accent on something more than just academics and athletics. So Brcck has encouraged a wide variety of extra-curricular activities. These encompass choir, journalism, glee club, dramatics, and yearbook. In the geometric sense these activities keep the “squares” out of Breck’s school circle. Today colleges are interested not in “Joe Intel- lectual” or “Joe Athlete,” but rather in the well-rounded boy. This person, because of his broad background, will be much more interesting. But, more important, this person will have some depth to his character. The extra-curricular activities involve a great deal of responsibility. They arc meant to be enjoyed but they arc also meant to teach. Journalism and yearbook teach organization and preparation. The glee club, choir, and dramatics teach the value of rehearsal and the essentials of presentation. Herein lies the perfectness of our school circle. 87 Left to right, IN FRONT: Mike Mishou, Barney Steele, Randy Schapiro, Tim Kjcllberg.

It’s much more than a narrative, though, for this annual must show the personality of Brock School. Pictures arc the most important part of the book. They cannot be just any pictures, but rather must be typical and descriptive. It is very difficult for a portrait or a group picture to tell anything about the school so the Mustang this year has stressed candid pictures. The second most important element in an annual is copy. The Mustang staff realized that at first glance its subscribers will usually just look at the pictures. But eventually they will read the copy. The book intended its copy to be secondary to its pictures. This year the Mustang business staff sponsored a candy sale for part of the book’s finances. The remainder came from subscription and advertising sales. An annual is a very expensive book to publish, so its initial success depends on a hard working business staff. Peter Johnson edited the annual and worked with Michael Mishou on layout. Oakley Pearson, Bill Reay, Fred Junger and Gary Hoiby wrote the copy. Fred Yore way the business manager and his staff included John Reay, Randy Schapiro, Tim Kjcllberg and Dick Yore. Mr. Roth was the faculty advisor. The entire staff would meet on Tuesdays and Fridays for one period. Of course this was not sufficient time so a great deal of the work was done in students’ extra periods and on Saturdays. 88 STAN DISC: Wade Larkin.

The number of boys that joined these activities was encouraging but their Tack of experience was a problem. Thus a journalism class was begun. Mr. David Hardman, their advisor, taught the boys such principles as the elements of journalistic writing and page layouts. The class gained its practical experience by publishing the school paper, the Breck Bugle. This is a four page paper, coming out on the average once each month. In addition to the regular deadlines each Homecoming season the staff published a very nice edition covering the football game, the dance and the queen coronation. Wade Larkin was the editor-in-chief. Feature editors were Charles Carlson, Rober Fronk, Gary Hoiby, John Peyton, and Peter Rcnnebohm. The feature staff consisted of Michael Dobbs, Antony Harrison, Geoffry Harrison, James Hayes, Bruce Jacobson, William Pittman, and Roland Racine. David Hancock was sports editor. Nick Goddard and Michael Ruedy were the.sports staff. John Larkin was photographer. James Phelps, Leland Swanson, and Steven Rader were cartoonists. The Bugle and the journalism class were a “fun” part of Breck. 89 From left to right, FIRST ROW: Stephen Sinclair, Tony Goddard, Eddie Arenz, Jim Pcanon, Bill Cordingly, Frank Kinikin, Jim Robinson, Dick White, Vance Hartman; SECOND ROW: Greg Albare , Bill Brisley, Bill Lord, Dick Bauder, Peter Archer, Clint Miller, Jim Nordberg, Jay Schaber, Jack Sukov; THIRD ROW: Charles Kehler, David Johnson, Charles Neily, Da -id Nelson.

It proved so successful that this year the choir changed its name to the Chapel Choir and was a regular part of Friday services. They had their own seating section in the front of the chapel. Mr. GofT Owen, director of the group, used the soprano-alto-tenor-bass arrangement for the singing effects. The First Form music classes sang the soprano and alto parts. James Pearson, seventh grader, was the Chapel Choir pianist during rehearsals on Tuesdays and Thursdays. The Chapel Choir sang such anthems as “Imperial Salem” and “Holy, Holy, Holy.” Mr. Owen throughout the year tried to attain different effects with such anthems by having the sopranos and altos sing alone on alternate verses. This technique proved to be very enjoyable. Some of the special appearances of the Chapel Choir included the All-Saints Day Corporate Communion Sendee, where they sang the Episcopalian Communion Sendee from the hymnal, and the M.I.S.L. Choral Concert, where they sang “Ye Watchers and Ye Holy Ones and “O Sacred Head Now Wounded.” Mr. Owen and the Chapel Choir, after the success of this past year, arc more than confident about bigger and better things next year. 90 Front left to right.

The first of these was, The Pie and the Tart, a slapstick French comedy where a baker wittlessly lets two rapscallions take a pic and a tart. Next the club acted out the cvcr-famous play of Charles Dickens, A Christmas Carol. The lead in the casting was of course Scrooge, played by Kenneth Sansomc. Another character that was very well presented was that of Bob Cratchctt played by Charles Prescott. This past year the Dramatics Club was con- cerned with the productions of two famous courtroom scenes. The club was divided into two sections, one presenting The Merchant of Venice and the other presenting The Devil and Daniel Webster. Mr. Krenz, their director, showed in these productions that importance of drama lies in the feeling of character rather than in costuming. He has emphasized facial expressions and gestures in his plays rather than dress or even scenery. He has left much up to the imagination of his audience, feeling that this will tic the audience closer to the action. It seems to be an effective method since his plays have been very well received. 91 FROST ROW: Charles Kehler, Dave Johnson, Ron Smith, Charles Prescott, Kit Chisholm, Steve Rader, Jim Norris; SECOND ROW: Dave Nelson, Mike Mishou.

GLEE CLUB Brcck’s Glee Club arose from a desire for a barbershop quartet. Some of the students wanted to sing college favorites in four part harmony. As more and more were intrigued by this, it was suggested that there be several quartets. In a small school such as Brcck, though, effort is more productive when united as possible, so the Brcck Glee Club was bom. It still held to the idea of singing college songs and to the idea of four part harmony. The club now has finished its second year of singing. It consisted of twenty-two members, most of whom have been with the Glee Club for the two years. Mr. Goff Owen, who once directed the freshman glee club at Yale, was their instructor. Dale Peterson, the president, and George Nelson, the manager were a great help to Mr. Owen. .Some of their appearances included the M.I.S.L. concert, the Christmas program, the Mid-Winter Formal, the Talent Show, and the Breck-Xor-throp concert. In addition the Glee Club was a regular attraction at all the Breck dances. The old favorites that they sang were: “Aura Lee,” “The First on My Charm,” (known to the students as the “Rabbit Song”), The “Wiffenpoof Song,” and “Drink to Me Only.” As the name implies, the Glee Club is an activity meant for fun. It is a tradition in the making. 92 Fair is Faul and fowl is fair. But of course, them Imperial Japs was much bipxrr.

ATHLETICS The fineness of Breck’s school circle by no means implies that it is fragile. The material that this circle is drawn upon is strong material. Likewise, Breck’s material, the students, arc meant to be physically strong. Athletics, just like any other activity, are more demanding of some students than of others. There is a tendency for those who aren’t natural, or at least promising, athletes to shy away. But Breck is not so much interested in producing athletes as it is in producing men. The athletic field is where men arc built or men arc broken. So Breck discourages the inactivity of the non-promising ath- lete and encourages the activity of the prospective man by its compulsory athletic program. The physical strength of Breck’s school circle lies in the durability, stamina, spirit, power, and guts that athletics ingrains in its student body. The competition of athletics also keeps the students from relaxing so that Breck’s school circle looks good in comparison to other school circles. Athletics promotes a loyalty to Breck. The students will fight for the reputation of their school. In this fight, Breck’s athletic program encourages teamwork which will bind the individual students into oneness. The circle meaas oneness. 97 From left to righi, FIRST ROW. Hailey (W), Kingjbury (S), (L), coach — Don Sat er; THIRD ROW. Rader (L), Heeren Kautcl (J).

This is a real compliment when their opponents arc considered. Breck played a league schedule which was exceptionally tough this year. Shat tuck, for instance, had a line which averaged 205 but was still fast and tough. Though the score was 26—0, the people who watched the game said there was at most one touchdown difference between the teams. Brcck’s non-conference schedule, which they swept, included Roscmount and Golden Valley, schools that went on to finish at the top of their respective conferences. Coaches Donald Saatzer and Pinky McNamara would actually participate in intra-team scrimmages, which produced a very close coach-player relationship. The Mustangs were ably captained by Fred Junger and Lee Sutton. Six Breck players were honored by the M.I.S.L. for their outstanding play. Receiving all-conference awards were Fred Junger at offensive guard. Dick Hegener at defensive end, Lee Sutton at defensive linebacker, and Blair Jenness at defensive guard. Receiving honorable mentions were end John Rcay and halfback Bill Harley. Lee Sutton also received the Most Valuable Player award, while Fred Junger was awarded the Fighting Heart and the Best Offensive Lineman trophev. John Reay was selected as the Most Improved Player.

JUNIOR VARSITY FOOTBALL The Junior Varsity football tram had a very successful season for 1961. Everyone on the team had great spirit and drive. The first game was with Saint Paul Lutheran. The final score was 20—7, in the Ponies’ favor. Dave Walthour and Denny Williams had a great day with a total of 14 points on passing. At Minnehaha Academy the Ponies defeated the Indians 32—6. Brcck never failed to make a first down during the game. Dave Walthour scored 21 points. The third game was played at Blake School under very poor conditions. Breck’s aerial attack was not possible and Blake’s power type sweep offense was keyed that day. Saint Paul Academy was the hardest fought game of the season. The game went right to the wire with S.P.A. holding a 7—6 edge over the Ponies. In the closing seconds of play. Bob Arnold took a pass from Denny Williams on the 10 yard line and ran untouched over the goal line. The final score was 13—7 in favor of the Ponies. Coach Campbell led his team to a 3—1 season with a final success at Concordia with the varsity football team. Dave Smith intercepted a pass and returned the ball for 35 yards during this game. The team elected Bob Arnold as its Most Valuable Player at the end of the season. 106 From left to right, FIRST ROW: Sinclair (S), Deste-•an (J). Goddard (N), llohman.

SOCCER This was Breek's second year with a soccer team and it proved to be a successful season with Brcck winning three, losing three, and tying one. This year soccer became a varsity sport at Breck. Soccer is fast becoming a popular sport in the M.I.S.L. Other teams included: Blake, Minnehaha, and Shattuck. The team was adeptly lead through the season by its co-captains. Bill Rcay and George Pattison. There was no one outstanding player, but several men who helped the team greatly were Bill Rcay, George Pattison, Rudi Ccrati, Oakley Pearson, Larry Hall. Mike Ruedy, and Chuck Prescott. If someone says that soccer is a “sissy sport, ask him how he would like to run for seventy minutes — the length of a game. The weather was not the best for running around in shorts and a T-shirt, but this did not stop the team from playing its best during a game. They trounced Blake 1-0. Incidentally, the soccer team was the only team to win on “Blake Day . Breck defeated Minnehaha twice by scores of 1-0 and 2-1. Blake, in their second encounter, managed to hold the Mustangs to a 2-2 tic. Shattuck handed Breck its only league defeat by squccking past them 1-0. 'This game was held on the gloomiest Friday the thirteenth yet. St. Thomas won over Breck twice by scores of 5-0 and 5-1. The team could not have done so well had it not been for its two coaches, George Truscott and the Rev. Donald Hultstrand. 108 I. to r. STANDINC: Randy Schapiro, Robert Murphy.

VARSITY BASKETBALL VVrn Mikkclscn’s varsity basketball team proved that spirit and desire mold a winning squad. The Mustangs lost their opener to experienced Mechanic Arts 54—36. Rut their next opponent. Burnsville, was a Pony victor)-. These were the only two games Breck had to prepare for a tough conference schedule. Concordia was Brcck’s first conference win. After a low scoring first half, Breck found itself four points down. Coming from behind and then hanging one in the last minutes Breck was able to win 33—30. In another close game Breck again found itself down at half time. Out-hustling the taller Blake team, the Mustangs were able to come from a 10 point deficit to win 44—42. Breck. still undefeated, in conference play, now played a highly rated Minnehaha team. Trading baskets in the first half both teams proved equal. Breck had a cold third quarter and fell eight points behind by the fourth quarter. Breck finally made their move and with two minutes left tied the score. Minnehaha went ahead on two free throws for a 46—44 victory. Breck next took the losing measure to a fine Shattuck team. Again one bad quarter found the Shads outscoring Breck 20- 4 and continuing to a 57—44 win. Except for this one lapse, the Mustangs played them on even terms. The Mustangs kept in the conference race by outscoring S.P.A. 67—46. The second round now began with Breck taking the measure over Concordia 45—42. Breck was tied with Minnehaha for second place with an identical 4 2 record. Luck ran out. however, and the Mustangs lost consecutively to Blake, Minnehaha, and Shattuck. They played S.P.A. into a sudden death overtime, but lost' 44—12. 109 Randy Schapiro guard Daw Smith guard BASKETBALL SENIORS Dick Hcgencr forward captain ■ “We want a basket” cheer Man- Burbage, Barb Bigelow, Sue McCormick, Karen Hegcner, Cindy Morris, and Ixiis Smith.

JUNIOR VARSITY BASKETBALL Its discouraging to work up a coordinated team from raw recruits with little practice in playing together, hut this unit nevertheless looked sharp in practice and executed some fine ball-handling. George Nelson, one of the men who returned from last year, was at the forward position. He had proved to lx effective under the boards in rebounds, but had a leg injury and was unable to play in some of the games. John Eliason, the other player who returned, also played forward. His knack for scoring from the outside made him high-point man. Fighting for top honors in the scoring column with “Eli’ was Steve LeMoine. He was new at Breck this year, and in his guard position scored well from the outside. Jeff Stewart was at the center position. His work under the basket aided the team much. John Strittmatter was a good ball-handling guard. Concordia managed to outscore the jay vees 25—17 in their first game, while Blake followed with a win 46—21. Defeats were also met at Minnehaha and Shattuck but at the time the team was heavily taxed by the flu. Nevertheless, the junior varsity had a thrilling come-back win over S.P.A. 3IL-16. Coach Vernon Skari is working hard to pull the group into a consistently winning team. Ii5 C” SQUAD BASKETBALL L.-R., FIRST ROW: D. Johnson, D. Nelson, ihr Rev. Hultstrand (coach), L. Ross. R.

Denny Williams, and Pete Anderson were the only rookies who played regularly. They combined with veteran Fred Jungcr to form an effective second line. The high-scoring first line had captain John Peyton at center with Pete Rennebohm and Dave Hancock at the wings. Lee Sutton and Bob Williams combined to make the most effective defense in the league. Yet nothing short of fantastic was goalie Bruce Shaw. By far, he was the league’s strongest net man. Unsung heroes of the third line were Billy Owen, Kit Chisholm, John Slater, defenseman Blcir Jenness, and goalie Roland Racine. Though these boys didn’t play much, their support from the bench and in practice cannot be measured. Brcck this year played many fine non-conference teams, among them Bloomington (3—5), one of the best in the Lake Conference and West (4—5 and 6—5), one of the best in the city. The M.I.S.L. league itself was the strongest it has been for many years. Brcck started the season with a loss to Blake that was “pugnacious.” They came back to beat Minnehaha 3—2, S.P.A. with a thrilling 1—0, and Shattuck 7—0. In the second round they evened Blake 3—2 in overtime and took Minnehaha 2—1 on a goal in the last 15 seconds of the game! They pushed Shattuck over for a second time 11—4, but met a close defeat to S.P.A. 3—2. Breck had tied Blake for first place in the league. In the tournament the Mustangs first drew Hill and beat them 2—I. Next they drew Blake and lost 2—0. In their final tournament game they played Minnehaha a record four overtimes but lost 3—2. As the season closed Captain John Peyton, Dave Hancock, and Pete Rennebohm became the top scorers of the league and Bob Williams was elected as the 1962-63 captain. 117 I.ec Sutton defense HOCKEY SENIORS Peter Kennebohm left wing Roland Racine goalie John Peyton captain center Fred Jlinger right wing 118 Everybody anxiously waits for the jwick in S.P.A. play-off.

JUNIOR VARSITY HOCKEY Lack of home ice on which to practice prevented the j.v. hockey team from organizing themselves completely as the season began. Their first game resulted in a 2—1 loss to St. Agnes. When the cold weather came, the necessary ice was obtained and regular practice began. This seemed to make the difference, for the Brcck pucksters defeated Blake 2—1. Mike Tangen and Jay Peyton turned in the winning goals, and Don Hill looked very good in the nets, as he did against St. Agnes, turning away shot after shot. John Loomis and Colt Baglcy were outstanding on defense. Brcck then journeyed to Shattuck and had a field day, walloping them 9—0. The score mounted quickly, as Jay Peyton and Mike Tangen scored soon after the game started. John Seeger made good a solo dash and Colt Bagiev found holes in the Shattuck goal with his slap shots, getting two for the afternoon. John Packard also lit the red light twice with a pair of goals, and Jay Peyton and Mike Ruedy added the remaining two. The defense stopped all Shattuck rushes, and Don Hill, with Sang Man Han getting some valuable experience in the third period, had to stop only three shots during the easy win. Mr. Nielsen, the j.v.’s new coach, expects a more quickly organized and more successful season next year. 123 7th 8th GRADE HOCKEY I. to r. STANDING: Jim Nord-berg.

This year 35 grapplcrs joined the team. As a result there was a scramble for the 12 first-place positions. There were 9 seniors who added strength and experience. At 95 pounds were Dave Hathaway and Gene Beaulieu, who should lx major point earners in years to come. Bob Mudge, representing Breck at 103 pounds, was one of the more consistent winners. At 112 were Jim Hayes and Judd Herrmann while Oakley Pearson and Harmon Cox wrestled the 120 weight division. John, co-captain this year, had a rough time against “Spider” Arnold’s black belt antics. The 133 pound division was loaded with the talent of A! Norton, Bill Reay, and Neil Stein. At 138 pounds Steve Kingsbury and Jim Norris represented Breck. Steve was the most improved wrestler on the team. Bill Harley (145 lb.) was high point man. Kirk Bachler (also 145 lb.) scored the upset victory of the season against Minnehaha. At 154 pounds Barney Steele, Ron Smith, and John Record represented the Mustangs strongly. Two seniors, co-captain Ix c McDonald and John Kausel wrestled in the 165 pound division. 'I'his was “M.D.’s” fourth year as a varsity wrestler. Lee scored a win oxer Minnehaha which enabled the team to win the match. Mike Mishou, Dick Yore and Dale Peterson wrestled 175 pounds. Pete Johnson and Chuck Neily wrestled heavyweight. Pete scored the determining pin which enabled Breck to defeat Minnehaha, last year’s M.I.S.L. champions. 125 John YValsh Lee McDonald co-captain co-captain 127 lb. 1651b.

Bradford Lamson came to raise Breck School into the sights of all American college standards. Since then, the placements of graduating classes mark well his successfulness. But XIr. Lamsonfs efforts reached from seniors to all underclassmen; his awareness in the current affairs classroom and his enthusiasm as a football and baseball coach brought his high standards throughout the school. Next year the Lamson Academic Trophy will continue to encourage these values. Coupled to Mr. Lamson s direction of studies came responsibility as Assistant Headmaster — another ‘challenge well met . As an echo of school life, Mr. Lamson. the Afus-tang extends its gratitude for your generous service and furthermore, wishes you and your family may enjoy a hope-filled life in Princeton.
