THE 1965 BRECK MUSTANG Published by the Mustang staff Editor: James P. Norris Assistant Editors: Gene Beaulieu, Academic Charles Ncily, Sports John Larkin, Social Edward Chapin Jr., Richard Cole, Business Managers Jac k Takemoto, Photography Mr. John S. Nelson DEDICATION This year, the Breck Mustang attempts to honor in its small way the great achievements and untiring devotion of Breck’s Senior Master, Mr. John Nelson. To describe Mr. Nelson without the use of superlatives is impossible. He is the most be-Ioved master in Breck and has taught more years than any other master, having joined the Breck faculty in 1931. Indeed many students are sons of boys whom Mr. Nelson has taught. He coached all Varsity athletics from 1931 to 1949 and was Assistant Headmaster from 1938 to 1948. Mr. Nelson is really more a tradition than a teacher. His antics as unofficial cheerleader are as unforgettable as his miraculous speed at calculation. With Mr. Nelson here, the com- puter is merely superfluous. To lop these achievements, he also draws straighter lines and rounder circles on the blackboard than any other Breck teacher. His intuitive powers have earned him the name of “The Fox” from his students, who never cease to marvel at the way he knows who hasn't done an assignment. His mathematic genius is surpassed only by his love of teaching. Mr. Nelson himself says that the greatest excitement of his life is watching and helping boys mature. It is because of his sincere devotion to Breck that in this year of his official retirement, after 34 years of service, that we, the Mustang Staff dedicate the 1965 Breck Mustang to Mr. John Nelson. 2 3 COMMITMENT TO BETTERMENT Breck school is undergoing a period of exciting changes. Plans have been made lor the addition of several new buildings and the new chapel has already become a reality. Academic departments have increased in size and quality, and the academic life of the school is flourishing. Plans to change Breck from a completely boy’s school to a coeducational school have also gone into effect, with girls enrolled in the first five grades. Gradually the entire school will become coeducational. Breck School has made a “Commitment to Betterment” by which it is striving to improve the quality of its education and prepare its graduates more fully for college and for life. Canon F. Douglas Henderson, Breck’s Head- master. summed up the ideas with this statement: “You will notice that I frequently use the word ‘excitement’ in speaking of the current and future plans at Breck. and 1 can think of no better word. This is a time for excitement, a time of purpose, and a time of achievement. A school that sleeps is a school that will be dead. A school that commits itself to betterment in an ongoing program is a school that will Ik belter, and Breck knows that it can always be better. Thus as a theme for the 1965 Breck Mustang we, the Mmtang staff, likewise make a Commitment to Betterment and by it we will attempt to show the story of an exciting year of change and progress. 4 TABLE OF CONTENTS Dedication..............................2-3 Foreword..................................4 Tabic of Contents.........................5 Introduction to Brcck..................6-10 Faculty Administration..............11-23 English Department....................24-25 Mathematics Department................26-27 Science Department....................28-29 language Department...................30-31 Fine Arts Department..................32-33 Religion..............................34-35 Maintenance Kitchen....................36 UPPER SCHCXJL.........................37-82 Senior Class..........................38-69 Upper School Candids..................70-71 Junior Class..........................72-73 Sophomore Class.......................74-75 Freshmen..............................76-77 8th Grade.............................78-79 7th Grade.............................80-81 Candids..................................82 LOWER SCH(X)1.........................83-92 6th Grade................................84 5th Grade................................85 4th Grade................................86 3rd Grade................................87 2nd Grade................................88 I st Grade...............................89 Kindergarten.............................90 Lower School Candids.....................91 Missed Pictures Candids................92 EXTRA-CURRICULAR ACTIVITIES . . 93-102 Student Council..........................94 Saint Barnabas...........................95 Executive Board - Mothers’ Club...........% Women's Association......................97 Mustang...............

Its classes range f rom Kindergarten through high school. Breck’s motto is “Honor God and Country” and these standards are taught from an early age. Breck has close faculty attention for its students. 6 Breck encourages exploration of the frontiers of education. Breck's theory of education makes learning as enjoyable as possible, with little sacrifice of hard work. Discipline is recognized as part of the learning process. Extra-curricular activities offer students a chance to develop talents which may prove both pleasurable and useful in later life. Social functions make the Breck’s Glee Club has several concerts during the year, providing a constructive musical activity. 8 Competitive athletics help to develop a strong body and a balanced character. Thus Breck strives to produce the well rounded individual who can use the knowledge he can obtain to serve him in later life. Since college is the next important step in life after Breck. the school prepares the student to face the pressures of higher education. Students learn what will be expected of them in college from the faculty and administration of Breck. College representatives also come to the school for interviews with Juniors and Seniors to acquaint them with college life. everyday school life less tedious. Possibly more than anything else, Breck asks its students to . . . 9 BRECK LOOKS TO THE FUTURE Time will pass quickly for this Kindergartener and sooner than many realize, he will become a member of the Breck Upper School. When this time comes, Breck will have changed radically. In its Commitment to Betterment. Breck is to become a coeducational school which will be unique in the Twin Cities area. Its facilities will be expanded and its educational advantages will become geared to the demands of a challenging future. Breck took the first of many steps towards betterment with the groundbreaking for the new chapel in November. 1964. The chapel will be finished for the 1965-66 school year, standing as a symbol of the Christian influence in Breck School. to The Faculty of a school help to mold the character of the students. They do this not only by introducing the ideas of great men, but also by setting the example for behavior and for academic excellence. The Administration of a school has the large task of managing the business end of the institution, solving the problems and conflicts, and making a path for tomorrow. The Faculty and Administration of Breck School meet the challenges of the field of education through hard work and knowhow. They are working for a better Breck and have joined in the Commitment to Betterment for growth and improvement. FACULTY AND ADMINISTRATION II MR REUBEN L. ANDERSON MR. WALTER G. ANDREWS MR. JAMES H.

KELLOGG MR. COLE OEHLER MRS. JAMES PEARSON MR. LEE H. SLATER MR. GEORGE THISS MR LEON F. TOZER BOARD OF TRUSTEES I he Breck Board of Trustees is the governing body of Breck School. The Board’s responsibilities partly consist of planning ihe financial program including operating budgets for the school, and establishing policies of the school. The entire Board holds meetings four times a year while the Executive Committee may meet at any time when the need arises. The Executive Committee members include: The Rt. Rev. Hamilton H. Kellogg, chairman; Mr. Walter G. Andrews, President; Mr. Emil Fronk, Secretary; Mr. George I'hiss, Treasurer; The Rev. Canon F. Douglas Henderson; Mr. Preston Haglin; Mr. James H. Bingcr. The past year the Board of Trustees made several important decisions. One such decision was the election of another president. Mr. Reuben L. Anderson was elected an Emeritus Member when Mr. Walter Andrews assumed his position. Secondly, a new set of by-laws was adopted early in the year which governs the entire Board. The ultimate objective of the Board of Trustees is the drafting of a policy for Breck .School in order to meet and maintain the highest standards of education. 12 THE REVEREND CANON F. DOUGLAS HENDERSON. D.D. HEADMASTER In 1953, Canon Henderson came to Breck 1'rom a position in the Diocese of Minnesota, where he was Director of Christian Education. At that time, Breck School was still located on its old St. Paul campus, and was involved in a military program. In this venerable institution. Canon Henderson saw room for improvement. He promptly set about acquiring an outstanding faculty and an equally faultless administration. He then began a detailed program of rejuvenating and reshaping Breck. His efforts have obviously not been in vain, for the present Breck, with its modern, functional building on its attractive Minneapolis campus, its academic, rather than military-centered program, and its extremely promising future, has become easily the finest college preparatory school in the upper Midwest. Far from satisfied with the present Breck. Canon Henderson is striving even more to fully round Breck's image and personality. With the assistance of Mr. Vonker. he has been a motivating force for the long range planning which has scheduled such improvements as a new' chapel, to provide our religious life a place deserved by so integral a part of Breck. and a new Science and Math building, to provide greater facilities for these courses. Also, through Canon Henderson’s guidance, the school is gradually becoming coeducational, along with increased enrollment and a more complete curriculum. Admired and respected by the students. Canon Henderson’s virtues are more than exemplary leadership and enthusiasm. Besides these, he possesses a wonderful sense of humor, and a warmth and friendliness which endear him to adult and student alike. We are sure that the Canon’s leadership will continue to produce an ever-superior Breck School. 13 THE REV. LLOYD R. CESNER ASSISTANT HEADMASTER I his year a new personality has taken over the position of Assistant Headmaster. He is the Rev. l.loyd R. Ciesner, who, with his six foot-three stature, is a man the Breck students can look up to. Mr. Ciesner, like Canon Henderson, is a native of Nova Scotia and. also like the Canon, is a graduate of the University of King’s College. Born in Digby, Nova Scotia, Mr. Ciesner, after graduating from Wolfville High School, attended Provincial Teachers’ College, from which he graduated at the top of his class. He received his Bachelor of Arts degree in 1951 at King’s College at Halifax, Nova Scotia. In 1946, Mr. Gesner took a position at Liverpool Junior High School. He went on to teach at Dartmouth Bicentennial Junior High School in 1951 and 1952. It was here where he met the woman whom he later married. From 1951 to 1954. Mr. Ciesner taught at Halifax County Vocational High School. In 1954 he became Headmaster of King’s College School in Windsor, a post which he held until 1960. In 1960, Mr. Ciesner was Senior Housemaster and Head of the Classics and Sacred Studies departments at Saint Andrews College in Aurora, Ontario. Besides his teaching record, the Rev. Ciesner has also achieved the rank of Captain in the Canadian Army; he is a Gilwell Scouter, the highest attainable position as a scoutmaster, and serves on the Canadian Foundation for Independent Boys’ Schools. He has two children. Susan and Steve, who are attending Breck in the Second and Fourth Cirades, respectively. In addition to his duties as Assistant Headmaster, Mr. Gesner is teaching Form II Latin. We wish the Rev. Ciesner all the good luck possible, and hope that he will be with Breck for many years. 14 MRS BEATRICE BROWN IN APPRECIATION For the past twenty years every Breck student who has gone through the Fifth and Sixth grades has been privileged to have had Mrs. Beatrice Brown for an F.nglish teacher. We use the word privileged because the students who have been in her classes have been taught by a truly extraordinary teacher. Mrs. Brown has the rare ability of being able to stimulate her pupils to great accomplishment and arouse in them an interest in the study of F.nglish. She is noted for her ability as a grammarian and with this skill she is able to give her students a Firm foundation in sentence structure which aids them greatly in later years not only in English, but also in foreign language studies. Her unique method of introducing grammar with its sentence “skeletons and “engine verbs will long be remembered by Breck students. Now, on her retirement after two decades of faithful service to Breck students, we wish to offer our sincerest thanks and good wishes to one of Breek’s finest teachers, Mrs. Beatrice Brown. 15 ADMINISTRATION MR.

Their objective is to expose to Breck students traditions of American as well as English literature, and at the same time teach skills of language and writing. In his first two years in the Upper School the student is introduced to the novel, satire, classical mythology, and drama. It is in these years also that grammar and composition work is extensively concentrated on. As these young men become freshmen they study different writings such as short stories, both traditional and modern poetry, essays, and novels. As sophomores, they deal almost wholly with American literature —past and present. Y'ocabulary building is stressed. English literature becomes the important study for juniors while emphasizing English and American novels which are important to all Americans. Seniors deal with classics of various eras which are representative of their times. Speech has been emphasized and in many cases speeches are determined by subject matter discussed in either English or Sacred Studies classes. Also outside reading is necessary and helpful for all English courses. 24 Mr. Krcnz gives his students both barrels. Mrs. Brown prepares students well for Upper School English. Woof Not bad. IS out of 15 failing. The Head of the department does his homework. ThcG-15 (and friends) MATHEMATICS Perhaps the most exciting recent event in the Math Department has been the acquisition of a G-15 Computer. All Upper School students will learn to program and operate the machine. Computer programming has become part of every Upper School math class, and several Ijower School classes. Special Computer-Oriented Math Classes are being conducted for selected juniors and seniors. SMSG math is now being used in grades 4-10. Next year it will also lx? used in grade 11, and to a lesser extent in grade 12. The Minnemasi materials are now being used in Kindergarten and 1st grade. Next year the material will also be used in grade 2. The Minnemast project will move through the grades one year at a time, and will eventually replace the SMSG Math in the Lower School. The novelty of the “modern math has disappeared, but the faculty and students have retained their original excitement and interest. 26 Problems, problems, problems. . . . and these V4 inch long pencils arc 3c apiece. Mr. Nelson. Brcck’s first computer. WHAT??? Hmm. their figures are in excellent proportion!!! 27 SCIENCE Having already incorporated the PSSC and CHEM STUDY programs, Breck School further enriched its science curriculum with the addition of the BSCS materials. This program was begun in September by Mr. Nielsen, who had attended a rigorous NSF summer institute at the University of Iowa. The general rationale of the new biology” is to present science as a process of inquiry rather than as a statement of facts and conclusions. Laboratory work, stressing how theories have meaning to apparently unrelated facts, becomes an integral part of the course. New equipment purchased for this program included ten Bausch 8c Lomb Stereozoom microscopes with illuminators, fourteen A-O Spencer compound microscopes, four new balances, a centrifuge, and an additional supply of chemicals, glassware, and miscellaneous items. Another new feature of the school curriculum was the introduction of Earth Science in the eighth and ninth grades. This course, which involves astronomy, meteorology, and geology, was taught by Mr. Nielsen and Mr. Nicklcs. In the seventh grade Mrs. Petersen organized a new class in the Science of Living Things. Even on the Lower School level the curriculum changed to keep in touch with the ever-changing ideas of science. The Minne-masi program was introduced in Kindergarten-First Grade and a new science room was provided. Ixt’s see, sugar and spice . . . 28 This stew ought to be done soon Mr. Nielsen demonstrates the use of a mi croscope. Multiple choice? Brcck's Mr. Wizard performs an experiment. 29 Mr. Peter Johnson, alumnus, assists in the science department. LANGUAGE Breck School offers four languages to its students—French, Latin, Spanish, and German. The language studies begin in the fifth and sixth grades where Mrs. Janine Nelson teaches courses in French. When the students enter the Upper School they have a chance to continue in French, change to Latin, or take both languages. Mrs. Nelly Blackburn and Mrs. Nelson work with Upper School French and the courses include both grammar and conversational French with use of Breck’s fine language laboratory. Mr. Charles Krenz, Mr. Leslie Roth, and Mr. Lloyd Gesner have the courses in beginning Latin. Mr. Michael Cram, Head of the language Department, continues their work in Latin II and III. He emphasizes the effect of the classical literary styles on modern language as well as the basic Latin fundamentals. The Spanish Department is likewise under Mr. Uram’s direction and includes courses in Spanish 1.11,and III. Mr. William Neher, who has charge of the German end of the Language Department, is currently beginning a developmental program of audio-lingual instruction in the first three levels of German. And this switch bugs the Senior room. 30 French fringe benefits? 31 I think if you get a 200 in your next test you will pass for the marking period. Mr. Toombs upholds his viewpoint. HISTORY In a world of many varied and conflicting viewpoints, a student must be able to interpret and select the right facts to enable him to think critically regarding the history of his country and the world. The courses at Breck are set up in a way to enable the boys to develop the ability of selecting truths with an open and unbiased mind, selecting evidence, and organizing ideas into meaningful patterns. The Breck student starts his basic education in history in the fourth, fifth, and sixth grades. Here he is given an introductory background to the geography and History of the United States. Geography and the History of the United States are also taught in the seventh and eighth grades respectively. Modern European History is given to the Sophomores and a comprehensive course in American history is required in either the Junior or .Senior year. Open to Seniors is a class in United States Government. This course is designed to let the student realize the theory behind his government and also to help him to understand the many facets of political science. 32 The history classes have some interesting discussions. Dear Lower Slobbovian Ambassador . . . FINE ARTS T he fine arts can be an important part of any school and present plans propose a great increase and improvement in Breck’s program. The Glee Club is being expanded in size and in the scope of its performances. With the increased facilities of the new Chapel, with a ninety-seat choir stall, the organization has the opportunity for great growth. The Art and Music programs are to be more closely coordinated, with a chance for the Upper School students to paint to music for public display. Choral readings at the Christmas program showed the combined efforts of the Speech and Drama departments. The Speech and Drama programs will be enlarged and intensified in the future to provide greater opportunity for the development of the talent of boys with a dramatic or forensic bent. The addition of girls to the Breck community will provide the chance for great improvement in the Fine Arts department, since it will make possible a mixed chorus, with more serious dramatic productions, operettas, and operas. The Christmas program showed the combined efforts of the entire Fine Arts department. 33 RELIGION In its striving to produce the well-rounded student Breck has not neglected the spiritual aspect of life. Students attend Chapel three times per week and have a chance to attend Communion each Wednesday morning. The school offers classes in Sacred Studies to give the students an understanding of their Judeo-Christian heritage. These classes are taught by Mr. Huefner, Mr. King, and Canon Henderson. Throughout the year guest speakers and seniors have given the student body different views on ethical, social, and religious problems. Work was begun this fall on a new Chapel separate from the school. With the completion of the Chapel, slated for spring 1965, the spiritual life of the school will be greatly improved and the dreams of many for a truly worthy Breck Chapel will be realized. The religious, and with it the ethical, influence on the student body of the school’s religious activity has been of great import, and will become more significant as the school expands and as it enriches its religiously oriented programs. 34 Boy! Was thai a bad speech! The Rev. Ernest Campbell, former Breck chaplain, welcomed as a guest speaker. From left to right: LeRoy Aabv. Harry Hogan, Frank Moore. Tony Jahlonnki, Jim Sicvenson.

The years which a student spends in the Upper School, on top of the Lower School background, form a foundation which serves the graduate in college and in the vocation which he chooses. The 1964-65 school year proved to be one filled with excitement and anticipation. Students took the initiative to go into areas of further study and individual development through the use of Breck’s facilities. The school likewise expanded its facilities and enlarged its staff to meet the demands of the future. Signs of improvement and growth were seen in the entire Upper School as it prepared to move ahead towards the “new Breck School. The steps Breck has taken in its Commitment to Betterment were reflected in the efforts of the Upper .School to further the goals of improvement and academic excellence.

Cooperative Member. SENIOR CLASS Every school must look to some group for leadership in student activities. At Breck this group is the Senior Class. These oldest members of the student body, by their actions and by their example, help to guide the rest of school. During the first weekend of the school year, the whole Senior Class met with representatives of the Faculty and Administration at Otis Ix dge in Grand Rapids, Minnesota, where plans were made for this year. Precedents were altered to meet the changing needs of the class. The formation of a Senior Advisory Committee and a Behavior Board enabled the class to take greater joint responsibility in student government. The Senior Advisory Committee consisted of the three class officers, Martin Lip-schultz, President, John Loomis, Vice-President, Spencer Kempf. Secretary-Treasurer, and two cooperative members. James Norris and Jeff- rey Stewart. This group was designed to discuss problems which the class as a whole could not decide. The Behavior Board served to institute disciplinary action and also to seek ways for the correction of disciplinary problems. Every member of the Senior Class served on the board in a rotating system consisting of groups of ten. This year’s Senior Class has been active in all aspects of school life from Athletics to Dramatics and from the Fine Arts to social functions. The Class of 1965 has aimed for class and school unity in hopes of utilizing to the greatest extent the opportunities presented to them. This year has been a valuable and productive experience for both the Seniors and the Underclassmen. The Senior class will be able to look back to these days as among their most interesting and rewarding. 38 Bong Entered Breck 1961.4 years.

In the present student body, the future is represented by the Lower School, for those students in Grades 1-6 will form the graduates of tomorrow.

In quest of this goal, Breck has a program of extra-cut ticular activities to supplement its academic and athletic programs. Boys may write for the two student publications, the Mustang or the “Bugle”, sing in the Glee Club, work on the Library Committee or the Radio Club, or they may join the Chess Club. If Breck has no activity, and there is an expressed desire from the students, the school will make every attempt to provide the best for all the students and thus give them the opportunity to broaden their knowledge.

Jeff STUDENT COUNCIL It would indeed be difficult for Breck's Administration to function satisfactorily without a reciprocal means of communication with the student body. To this end the Student Council has been established as a sounding board for student opinion. I he Student Council serves both to bring to the attention of the administration the feelings of the student body and to inform the students of the Administration’s wishes on corresponding issues in the life of the school. The Student Council does the planning for the year’s social d 94 events and thus they become student-directed. Certain decisions have been given over to the Student Council throughout the year which confirm its representative ability. From Forms I through V, Student Council representatives are the President and Vice-president from each class. The Senior Class contingent is the five members of the Senior Advisory Board. Officers of the Council this year were Martin Lipschultz, James Norris. Jeff Perry, and Tom Schuster, President, .Vice-president, Secretary, and Treasurer, respectively. From DJI to right.

The forty-two volunteers, under the direction of Mike Dobbs and Jim Hayes, perform various and sundry jobs. The boys take water, mail, flowers, and food trays to patients, help to admit and discharge patients, and transport them from their rooms to X-ray and Physio-therapy. This gives the boys good experience, while having fun at the same time. The boys volunteer quite readily for St. Barnabas work, since it is the major outside service project in which Breck participates. This year Breck Volunteers really did a good job. According to a hospital employee, “Breck boys don’t know how much good they do. They are really invaluable. At St. Barnabas the boys are each assigned to a station where they help the nurses with the routine tasks so that they have more time for the individual needs of the patients. There are also boys who work Central Service Supply and prepare equipment and medical supplies for use in the hospital. St. Barnabas is an Episcopal hospital, is served by an Episcopal Chaplain, and thus looks to Breck for its volunteer aid. The hospital has not been disap|X)inted and Breck has found one more way to serve its community. 95 From Lifl to Rigkl, FIRST ROW Mmn, Dokmo, Norton, Frurn. Chapin. Quen. Prarton, Schmtcr. Nones.

EXECUTIVE BOARD-MOTHERS’ CLUB The objectives of the Breck Mothers’ Club arc to promote closer relationships among the mothers and to further such objectives as may seem desirable and beneficial to the Mothers’ Club and the school. 'Phis year, while some money has been set up lor various purposes, the Mothers’ Club is also waiting to learn from the school’s administration the most inqxirtant ways they can help Breck with the money they have earned last year and this year. Money has been put into the following f unds: The Organ Fund, The Colonel Wiggins Fund, the Biology Lab Fund, and the Library Fund. Contributions have also been made to the Music Department and to Breck’s Endowment Fund. The Mothers’ Club will always l e ready to donate money for athletic equipment or room furnishings in the school. In September, at the first of five meetings at school. Canon Henderson spoke and introduced the Rev. Lloyd Gesner and his philosophy of education. In October, Mr. Earl Clasen told of his experiences as a member of the Peo-ple-to-People program behind the Iron Curtain. At the January meeting. Canon Henderson and a panel of Breck teachers discussed various aspects of education. In May the traditional meeting which honors the seniors and their mothers is held. To become belter acquainted each grade had a meeting in November in a parent’s home. 96 From Is t o Right, FIRST ROW: Mmn. Drnrun. LrMoinc. Colic. Haglm, Vcrbtugghcn. SECOND ROW Mmrv Bmv.ii, Ncilv.

Kellogg- WOMEN’S ASSOCIATION The Breck School Women’s Association is composed of a group of women who are dedicated to Breck School and whose primary interest is in helping Breck. As in years past, the Women’s Association has been extremely effective in raising money for the Scholarship Fund and for furnishing the new Breck Chapel. Each year they hold a British Tea and some other project in the spring. l.ast year Peter Reich, Aerial Space Editor of the “American Magazine” lectured as a part of their fund raising campaign. The present officers are: President, Mrs. Preston Haglin Sr.; Vice-President, Mrs. E. E.

T he 1965 Mustang was financially sound through the efforts of Chip Chapin and his staff, who managed a profitable candy sale and sold ads to appear in this book. The photographic work for the publication was done largely by Jack Takemoto with the help of Greg Albares and JBR Photography. Through the efforts of these people, the staff had over 1,500 pictures to choose from in the making of the book. Many pictures, much thought, and countless hours of hard work have gone into this book. The effects of their labors have produced a yearbook in which they can take pride. Editon. utting John I arkin.

GLEE CLUB The 1964-65 Breck Glee Club consisted of 44 members. This all-male chorus participated in a program greatly expanded over last year’s. In addition to the M.I.S.L. concert, the Spring joint concert with Northrop Collegiate School's Choir, and the All-School Christmas program, the group made a concert trip to Winnipeg, Canada. The trip was made in early December and the entire Glee Club flew via North Central Airlines to Winnipeg where they sang at St. John’s Ravenscourt School. Such a trip marked a Breck “first” and its success may lead to future tours. I he Glee Club added a new dimension this year—a folk singing group made up of Jim Black, Jim Norris, Wils Tingle, Chuck Neily, Randy Beech, Jeff Perry, and Rick White. All the boys were Glee Club members and they performed frequently, to the delight of their audiences. The Breck Northrop Spring concert likew ise took a lighter turn with the performance of a one-act opera. Mrs. Elizabeth Tozer, the Glee Club directress, made many personal sacrifices to bring about the great improvements in the Glee Club. She looks to a future at Breck with increased choral activity. Jim Pearson, the able accompanist, likewise gave much of himself for the success of the concerts. 100 The Brothers Seven ride again Mr. and Mrs. Tozcr toast the Winnipeg trip...

BUGLE Co-editor, Mike Dobbs and “Bugle advisor Mr. Stockwcll The purposes of the “Breck Bugle are: 10 give the students experience with journalism through work on a school newspaper, to inform the school of news and events by reporting and editorializing, and to influence school policy by articles to and from the editors. The participation is open to everyone and anyone who is willing to submit articles or opinions to the paper is not refused. Approximately eight issues are printed throughout the school year. The 1964-65 Co-editors are James F. Hayes and Michael T. Dobbs. The subordinate editors are: Feature Editor, Paul Tietz; News Editor, Bruce Jacobson; Literary Editor, James Pearson; Sports Editor, Orrin Kessel; Circulation Exchange Editor, James Jacobs; and Make-up Editor, Antony Harrison.

The Breck student must learn to be mature socially, as well as mentally, physically, and emotionally. For this reason, Breck offers numerous social activities throughout the year. Breck dances provide an opportunity for students, faculty, alumni, and members of the administration to meet socially and to get to know each other outside the everyday school world. A social life benefits all and is an important part of the school community. The special events, such as concerts by different musical groups, teas, dances, proms, pageants, and convocations, provide pleasant changes from school routine. These changes broaden the students’ horizons and widen their outlook on life. SPECIAL EVENTS 103 Queen Barbara Berk 1964 HOME Princess Jane Bergquist Princess Linda Baker At 12:35 on Friday October 30, the 1964 Breck Homecoming festivities began.

After a tantalizing lunch, the Breck Tech Sextet Plus One thoroughly entertained the school with their vocal dexterity. The student body then proceeded to the Reuben L. Anderson Auditorium for the Coronation Ceremony. At 2:00 the five Queen Finalists and their escorts were presented to parents, faculty, and the student body by the Master of Ceremonies, Randy Beech. The royal party consisted of Linda Baker escorted by Joseph Leemhuis.Jane Bergquist escorted by John Larkin. Barbara Berk escorted by Tom Schuster, Sheila Gray escorted by John Packard, and Karen Sharkey escorted by Salty Holt. Then at 2:10 Mr. Robert J. Aarthun, after walking back and forth in front of the candidates for a time that seemed like an eternity, crowned Miss Barbara Berk our Home- coming Queen of 1964. After a pep-fest, the Homecoming game started at 3:30. Breck got off to a quick start and steadily applied the pressure throughout the game. It was closely matched, but Breck prevailed with a score of 18 to 14 for a decided -victory over the Concordia Comets. At half time music was provided by parts of the Mac-alcster College Marching Band. This was followed by a parade of convertibles and John Larkin and his Mustang Marauders who blasted the crowd with noise and excitement. The 1964 Breck Homecoming Dance began at 8:30 with the music from the band, the Coronados, a Five-piece band from St. Louis Park. The refreshments, graciously provided by the Mothers’ Club, were consumed very magnanimously by the hungry dancers. The chaperones were kept running to supply their needs. Everything considered this proved to be one of the best Homecomings in Breck’s history. COMING Princess Sheila Gray Princess Karen Sharkey Oh Yeah? THE CORONADOS The Breck Tech Sextet plus One.

The dance was well-attended MID-WINTER DANCE The 1965 Breck Mid-Winter Dance was held at the school on January 23. A six-piece orchestra provided an interesting variety of danceable music. This year's theme was “A Caribbean Cruise” and in accordance with this theme, the Breck dining room was transformed into a tropical island. The atmosphere created by the music and decorations provided a wonderful evening of entertainment. Refreshments were provided by the Mothers’ Club. The reception line included: Canon and Mrs. F. Douglas Henderson, the Rev. and Mrs. Lloyd Gesner, Mr. and Mrs. Earl Hovland, Mr. and Mrs. John Braxtan, Martin Lipschultz and Miss Nancy Beaubaire. “But Prudence, baby you have that little painter! BRECK-NORTHROP PLAY This year a group of Breck students joined with the Northrop Collegiate Thespian Troupe in the production of Waiter Kerr’s comedy, Stardust, a satire of acting and acting schools. The show provided an enjoyable and benefi- cial experience to the actors and gave a pleasant evening's entertainment to the spectators. The Breck students who took part in the play were: Wils Tingle, Ed Serum, John Gant .er, John Larkin, Jeff Perry, Mark Katz, and Lee Swanson. “Can’t you see that guv front Wall Street isn't for vou.

This often cited quotation could well be the basis for one of Brack’s most important programs, that of organized athletics. In Brack's Commitment to Betterment, it must remember that its purpose is to develop well-rounded men. Thus Brack has an athletic program which includes all of its students. In competitive athletics a boy learns how to win, how to lose, and how to work hard. Through athletics he develops his body and bis character. ATHLETICS 117 f From UJt to right.

FOOTBALL On August 24, the 1964 edition of the Breck football team gathered at the school to begin practice for the eight game season which would start on the first day of school. Weeks later this same team, seasoned and experienced, finished the season with a strong Homecoming win over Concordia. In the intervening period there was a great deal of work and sweat and, although the won-lost record was not good, much was accomplished. Because of the work of our coaches, Mr. Aarthun and Mr. Thiss, our cocaptains, Chuck Neily and Spencer Kempf, and the entire team, the prospects for the future for Varsity football at Breck look bright. 119 Pitch-out Gang tackle Big Blue Breck Scores Loom plays after the whistle Look at my team play.

The team had a strong defense, but the offense lacked explosiveness. Mr. Isaaman coached them excellently, and some great improvements were made. YVils Tingle and Boh Hanson led the soccer players as the co-captains. Erie Nesset was a senior standout. Juniors Brian MacDonald and Fred Lott gave much to the team.

VARSITY BASKETBALL 1965 1965 was a rebuilding year for ihe Varsity Basketball Team. With only two starters returning from last year’s talented team, George Thiss, the new coach, was faced with a monumental task. As expected, the season was long and hard with little success in the win-loss column. However much experience was gained by the younger boys on the team who were pressed into action. Among the highlights of the season were excellent upset victories over S.P.A. and Minnehaha, the latter before an overflow Fathers’ and Sons’ Night crowd. Outstanding individual performances by seniors were a part of every game, with Captain Orrin K esse I, an all-conference selection, taking the Minnesota Independent School League scoring title. Spencer Kempf, always dependable, was not far behind Kessel with over two-hundred points in conference action. Center Ed Chapin had standout performances regularly. Congratulations should be in order to a team which never gave up and was always to be reckoned with by the opposition. 126 Orric Kcsscl, Senior captain, shoots a free throw.

The team had a winning spirit, determination, and. what is more important, good sportsmanship. Among the regular J.V. players, standouts were Tom Olson, Alan Staubly, Steve Sinclair, and Dan Freed. Mr. Frank Cervenka was the coach of the J.V. Basketballers. His dedication, help, and patience enabled the team to grow as the season progressed. The team worked with the Varsity Basketball team and developed many of the necessary f undamentals. 130 Future Varsity players learn the basics. “C” SQUAD From l.fjt (o Right, FIRST ROW: Coach Mark Clown.

Mr. Allan Blatherwick, received a new spirit. This “will to win led Breck to a second place conference finish. The first line combined the two leading scorers in the league, Pete Anderson and Tom Ring, with Jim Grewe to form the highest “scoring punch in the league. John Loomis, Dave Anderly, and Bob Musscr combined at the strong defensive spot. Tom Schuster proved to be one of the two top goalies in the league, never failing to come up with fantastic stops in every game. The second line combined seniors Jeff Stewart, John Packard and Junior Stu Ackman to form one of the hardest working second lines in the league. B reek's third line was made up of Tim Nordland. George May, Todd Haarstick, defenseman Rick White, and goalie Jim Robinson. Although these boys did not play much, their support in practice was unmeasurable. Breck started out its season by playing many non-conference teams such as Cretin, Roosevelt, West, Mahtomedi, and Henry. For the first time this year, Breck took a road trip into northern Minnesota and Ontario, Canada. The team played Rainy River H.S. in Ontario and Baud-ette H.S. in Minnesota. Because of the lack of ice time, Breck dropped the first game to Rainy River (1-4) and the second to Baudette (0-5). Breck started out the M.I.S.I..Conference against Shattuck with a 5-0 win. They skated past Minnehaha 4-2, beat S.P.A. 4-2, and dropped one to Blake 0-0. The second round found Breck whipping Shattuck 9-1, trouncing Minnehaha 11-3, and losing the last two to Blake, 3-1, and to S.P.A. 3-2. Breck ended the season in Second Place and with a gocxl season of hustle”. 133 134 Schuster scrambles for puck. 136 J.V. HOCKEY From Ufl to Right. FIRST ROW R Pearson. R. Fruen. S. Chapin. C. Dokmo.

VARSITY WRESTLING The Varsity Wrestling team, under the leadership of their new coach, Mr. Robert Aarthun, had a fairly successful season. In their first match against Highland High School, they were the easy victors. However, alter falling to Chas-ka, they whipped Minneapolis South. They finished their non-conference season by losing to Mechanic Arts and by beating Highland again. In their first conference tilt, they swamped Concordia by a score of 44-11. They lost their succeeding matches because of many injuries to valuable members. The team lost the two co- captains, Jim Norris and Chuck Neily, and they never quite recovered from the loss of morale. They beat Concordia a second time, but failed to win any oilier conference matches. On a happier note, one of next year’s cocaptains, Fred Lott, won the 133 lb. Championship of the league. Roger Tobin, Jim Norton, and Brian MacDonald took third place in their respective weight classes. This year’s Varsity team had only three Senior members.
