Dr. Donna Jean Carter reunited our community with fresh ideas and programs. Our new superin- tendent was honored as one of the eight women to watch in the Twin Cities. In our 20 year history, Robbinsdale Cooper has evolved into an outstanding and communi- ty-oriented school. Having one of the largest enrollments in the state, we will manage to retain our identity. We are moving on, through our involvement and spirit in school activities, learning, and friendships. 5 Judith Geer French, Robbinsdale Cooperts first Homecoming Queen, speaks about traditions.

Time is budgeted between studies, part-time jobs, and extracur- ricular activities. However, nearly every student makes the move to participate in some school activities, from varsity sports to dramatic endeavors. It is through our in- volvement that many strong friendships are cultivated. b Fire eating is not one of the most common school activities.

Homecoming - 15 Cooper Salutes 20th Homecoming Homecoming week blossomed with creativity and tradition from beginning to end. Each day began with a new, original theme. Monday - 50is day Tuesday - Dress-Up day Wednesday - Hawaiian day Thursday - Western day Friday - Blue and Orange day The coronation ceremony took place on Tuesday morning, when Tim Rayford and Becky Byer graciously accepted the honor of being crowned Homecom- ing King and Queen. Along with other distinguished guests, Dr. Leroy Hood, Dr. Donna Jean Carter, and the 1982- 83 King and Queen attended the ceremonies. Special activities began Wednesday night with Casino Night, as eager gamblers roamed from table to table. The students played cards, rolled dice, shot craps, and afterwards headed out toward the bonfire. Thursday morning a continental breakfast was served in the school cafeteria. Friday morning classes ended early to kick off a festive and non-stop Homecoming day. The pep-fest began and ended with the band pumping out our school song, and the students scur- rying to and from their seats. During the day, entertainment never ceased. Members of the band Quasar amused the crowd with music, dance, and feats of fire. Next, students filled the auditorium for the talent show. Hosted by Peter Frantz and Becky Byer, the . variety show appealed to all. Jackie Smith and Bill Balfanz, the winners, each choreographed their own dances. Of course the football game excited everyone, as hopeful fans cheered on the team. Although Robbinsdalee Cooper lost 47-7 to Park Center, spirit lived on at the dance. Bobbi Jean and Cornbread, a school favorite, con- tributed to the major success of the dance, the final event of Homecoming. 16 - Homecoming AA The Cooperettes bop away. 4 Kirsten Logas celebrates Homecoming by dressing in 50's clothes.

Homecoming - 17 20 Year Anniversary Cooper celebrated its twentieth anniversary during February and March. A group of dedicated people formed the committee: the chairperson was Neal Luebke and assistant Chairpersons were Melissa Doerr and David Baumann. Other members were Elmer Kemppainen, Tom Gagnon, Caryl Bugge, Vern Hollister, Lois Yuzna, Jan Reinke, Patrick Billig, Liz Reid, Anne Marie Hennen, and the National Honor Society Officers. The kick-off for the celebration was an assembly on February 15 in which there was a parade of students bearing banners showing what they represented. Throughout the month there were many special activities. The musical Babes in Arms was celebrated as the twentieth anniversary show. Jerseys proclaiming the anniversary were available and were worn frequently by the staff and students. Displays in the show cases lauded the twenty years with style. The grand finale occurred on March 15 with an Open House-Activities Fair. Parents, students, and prospective students toured Cooper. There were ex- hibits in the cafeteria, in addition to birthday cake, entertainment in the auditorium and demonstrations in the classrooms.

J. COOperis more than a namesake for Robbinsdale Cooper High School. E. J. Cooper is a living legend. As the first superintendent of School District 11281, he was known as nthe builder ; and when he retired, the district was the fourth largest district in the state with 220 buildings, 22,000 students and 900 teachers. He developed an excellent curriculum for the district, with classes for slow learners, handicapped children, and gifted and talented students. E. J. Cooper was honored for his years of dedication and service to our school district by naming this high school after him. E. J. Cooper's 87th birthday was celebrated with a rousing pep rally organized by Neal Luebke and Patrick Billig, assisted by Tom Gagnon. Led by the flag twirlers, the ceremony began with a colorful parade of 56 students representing the academic areas and activities that make up our school. The students marched proudly as the band, directed by Mr. Thompson, played the Olympic theme. Master of Ceremonies Elmer Kemppainen introduced people who paid tribute to E.J. and the school. A tribute to Mr. Cooper, written by Communications teacher Phyllis Kromer, was read by senior Mark Kovach. Mark was followed by Mayor Ray Mattson of Robbinsdale, who pro- claimed February 15, 1984, as E. J. Cooper Day. The proclamation was signed by the mayors of five neighbor- ing communities. Mr. Cooper respond- ed by exuberantly thanking the students and staff, and saying HI feel I am a very lucky man. The students and staff contributed money to help purchase E.J.'s birthday gifts. These gifts were presented by the presidents of the senior, junior and sophomore classes. Senior Bruce Gutnecht presented E.J. with a year of Cable T.V. and ShowTime T.V. Dinner at the Bungalow was given to E.J. and his wife by junior Jenny Gorzycki, and a bouquet of roses was given to Ms. Cooper by sophomore Paul Steener- son. Following the ceremony, a special banquet was held for the invited guests including Superintendent of Schools, Donna Jean Carter Ph.D., some Central Office personnel, members of the pre- sent school board, some members of the school board of 20 years ago, former administrations; teachers and staff who retired, and RCPO officers.

Cooper Day 21 Dancing the Night Away The Jack of Hearts dance, based on the old Sadie Hawkins dances, was held on the tenth of February. This was the time when the girls got to ask the boys out. Students were mostly positive about the role reversal. Junior Annette Spence said, ttl like it! It gives the girls a chance to make a pass at the boys instead of the boys making a pass at the girls. To give a look at the other side, junior Mark Sawatsky said, It's great that they have to pay for new The boys, after being treated to a dinner at a restaurant ranging from McDonalds to Jax, were escorted to the dance by their dates. They wore conservative two and three-piece suits, and the girls wore new dresses and proud, Look-who-lim-here- with smiles. The music, playing until 11:45, was pro- vided by Ground Control. The dance concluded Snow Week and the reign of Jack of Hearts, Paul Norman and Snow Queen, Barb Biren. wt Hat N a w stiti mmmmggmmwm$ mmmatummmakm AA Rachel Benson and Scott Nadeau move to the music of Ground Control A Ground Control sets a dancing mood 4 A couple dances the night away 22 - Jack of Hearts Royalty in the Snow The most important day of Snow Week was Tuesday, February 7, when the coronation ceremony was held. Because the sophomores and junior royalty had been named earlier, the real suspense was in the crowning of the Jack of Hearts and Snow Queen. Willis Boynton. associate superinten- dent of School District 281 on special assignment, was the special guest. He offered a few welcoming words and his congratulations to all of the candidates. He then crowned Paul Norman as Jack of Hearts and Barb Biren as Snow Queen. Junior Royalty consisted of WW WWNW, prince Joel Konkol and Princess Jill Hansing. Sophomore royalty were Shannon Rice and Paul Steenerson. The chamber singers sang their con- gratulations to the royalty by perform- ing HSleigh Ride and were joined by the cross-country and downhill ski teams in singing ttLet it Snow. They added a special Minnesota affect by throwing white confetti. The jazz band also had a part in the coronation. Directed by Roger Thomp- son, they played HKnight Coach and ttNew Orleans Jazz Portrait? 4A Delighted surprise is shown by Becky Byer as Barb Biren is crowned by Willis Boynton.

All the Way Home t tWe come from people, and in time they fall away from us . . . But maybe if we keep going in the direction we think is right . . . maybe we cantt ever get all the way there, but at least we can make that distance less than it was. Everyone struggles with their beliefs; as they grow different things become impor- tant to them. This separates them from others, but maybe we will learn to com- municate better as life goes on. The fall play, ttAll the Way Homef' by Tad Mosel was based on James Agee's novel, A Death in the Family. It shows the Follet family in Tennessee in 1915. When Jay Follet, played by Andrew Dahlen, dies in a car accident, the family members are all deeply affected. The play deals with these reactions, but the joys and sorrows of being alive, whether young or old relate to all people. The show was directed by Gretchen Heath. Ms. Heath received help from John Elsen, Peter Frantz, who also played An- drew, Jayts brother-in-law, and Reenee Kempf, the student director. Mike Koski designed and built the set. Most of the action was in the Follet family's home. Three third graders made rehearsals more spicey. One of them, Rufus, played by Benjie McLaughlin, was Jayis son. Suzy Lee, who played Mary Follet tJayts wife and Rufus' motherl said, nBenjie knew everyonets lines. He would come up and recite them to you. On the November 5 performance Amy McQuade interpreted the show for the hearing impaired. Belinda Nitzkorski choreographed the prologue. This was slow movements to Barberis Adagio for Strings. It set the mood, involving the pursuit of a butterfly by the children in the neighborhood. The theme of a butterfly comes back at the close of the play when Andrew tells Rufus about the funeral. HThis perfectly magnificent butterfly came and settled on the coffin . . . the sun came out just dazzling bright, and he flew up and out of that hole in the ground, high in the sky - so high I couldntt even see him any more. Fall Play - 25 Behind the Scenes From set construction to costumes to makeup, props, lighting, and publicity, technical theater is constantly building toward the success of a production. nI think technical theater is everything necessary to mount a production? said Jeff Phillips, director of the one-act and the auditorium manager. They are very important? There are several different groups that are involved behind the scenes. The tech crew, directed by Michael Koski, builds the scenery for all the pro- ductions. They usually build the scenery from scratch, going as far as making their own wallpaper. For the production of All the Way Home , the tech crew gathered thousands of fall leaves, pressed them, and hung each leaf to create foliage for a tree. ltts a lot of work, said junior tech member, Beth Braden; but to make it yourself - itts worth it. This group of students often stays late at night, works on weekends, and sometimes even stays overnight. Director Gretchen Heath did the coor- dinating of the publicity crews for the pro- ductions she directed, making sure that there were posters and advertising, as well as the programs. The costumers suited costumes to character, personality, and time period. The behind-the-scenes people may not be the superstars of the show, but without them, the production wouldn't be even half as successful. Next time, observing a drama produc- tion, take a close look at the scenery, notice how the lights are used for effect, and look at how the costumes seem to be a part of the character. Get the whole pic- ture and appreciate technical as well as dramatic theater.

About 5,000 people attended the 2V2 hour musical production that originally starred Judy Garland as Susie Ward and Mickey Rooney as Valentine White. Cooper seniors Wendy Reid and Tony Frederickson took the roles in the current production. The plot involved young, striving ac- tors working at a summer theater. The playhouse season included The Deep North written by and starring the egotistical Lee Calhoun and a conflict- ing revue put on by the apprentices. In the end the apprentices find a way to produce their revue, and each couple finds romance. Producing a play requires hard work and long hours. Gretchen Heath and Frank Plut directed the cast. After six intense weeks of afternoon and evening rehearsals the acting, dancing, and singing was ready to be displayed to the public. Vocal director Dan Dressen, pro- fessor of voice at St. Olaf; Marvette Knight, Kudos award winner; and Janice Kimes, a member of the Min- nesota opera company, were among the professionals brought in to assist with the show. The set was constructed by Mike Koski with the help of Wayne Alstead. Marcia Arndt and Shirley Weiler provided the costumes. Famous songs from Babes in Arms include My Funny Valentine and The Lady is a Tramp. The production ran March 1,2,3 and 8, 9,10. DA Allison Levine and Rob Berdahl wish that they were in love again.

Musical e 29 ttHold the Show The RCHS one-act play, ttHold Me? by Jules Feiffer, peaked in the heart of the drama season with a star rating. Directed by Jeff Phillips, the nine-member cast por- trayed multiple roles in many comic storylines. The lighthearted humor had a definite significance. In dealing with com- mon problems of everyday life, the cast stressed the importance of basic needs for acceptance and approval. Tim Mortenson attributes the plays success to the direc- tor, saying, nMr. Phillips is a casual direc- tor who provokes the best from you. The best indeed! Sable and Hill, as well as Mortenson, received star performances. Not only that, but all three regional judges ranked them first over the other com- peting schools. RCHS took their show to the state festival, focusing mainly on keep- ing the energy level up.

One Act - 31 mix and match Fashions Partier Fashion, the ever changing phenomena, was nowhere more apparent than at Cooper High School. What was popular one year was often not popular the next. Jean fashion changed from the tight, straight legged designer jeans of the ms to the loose, baggy jeans of the early Bots and back to straight legs once again as the punk rockl new wave styles appeared. Fashion accessories also changed with the times. No longer does one see let's get physical. Headbands, and earmuffs were this year's cold weather rage. Another change came from the attitudes of the people. They don't always dress the same way as their friends do anymore. They tended to dress how they felt and not identify with only one style. There are still specific types of dress but not specific types of people who dressed that way. lndividualist Classic Look 32 a Fashion The Partierh e Note how the party dress of our kindergarten years has changed.

The first loss was goalie Eric Solberg with a rib injury. Back-up goalie Steve Durette filled in nicely, with Solberg coming back at the end of the season. Other injuries included a broken collar- bone to Captain Jeff Tracy late in the season. , The team was lead by Coach Randy Moselle and Captains Scott Kahney and Tracy. They kept team spirit up all year, even during the losses, according to Moselle. The team worked hard all season split- ting the two games with Armstrong, win- ning the first and losing the second. The season ended at the Region tournament, losing to Hopkins at Hopkins. Capt. Jeff Tracy described the loss as ttThe worst one of the season.

Accord- ing to junior Julie Lunberg, ttVlIe all felt badly after the region champ game; we really should have won. Although the team did not advance to the state tournament, they did take sec- ond place, with a record of 6-2-2, right behind the Wayzata Trojans whom the Hawks defeated their last conference game. HBeating Wayzata the last game of our season was one of the highlights, said Captain Becky Millard. The varsity team consisted of girls from ninth to twelfth grade. Some top players included sophomore Amy Arrell - for- ward, juniors Kellie McGuire e goaltender, and Lisa Rachwal - defense, seniors Jeri Gavenda - defense and Anita Dols - halfback. Not only was the team full of talent from all grades, but unity was also a major role. nA combination of team unity and skilled players made the season one of the best experiences of my life, said senior Jeanette Nyquist.

At the beginning of the season, coaches Ert- Jones Hermeding, Al Schober, Jeff Smith and John Lloyd believed this would be a very good season, because of the off-season weight program.

Winning Season HThe season was absolutely fan- tastic because of the new friendships made and our winning season? said cap- tain of the girlsi volleyball team, Vicki Fortman. The team had only three returnees and had to do a lot of rebuilding. They had a successful season. The girls on the team improved greatly as the season progressed. Their record was 15-10 overall and 8-4 conference. Armstrong and Osseo were the only teams they lost to in the con- ference. Most of the teams losses were in the tournaments at Columbia Heights and at Cooper-Armstrong. There were two sophomores on the var- sity squad: Sue Widmer, who played the whole season, and Michelle Wincek, who played the latter half. They helped to solidify the team with their ability to hit and block the ball. The team got along well together. HPatty Schik and Vicki Fortman showed ex- cellent leadership qualities? said Kellie Freberg.

Working with one another was one thing the girls and the boys cross country teams did this year as they ran together not only in practice but also at meets. The boys ran three miles and the girls ran two miles in their meets. Even though both teams were without victory, coach Randy Hanson feels the team overcame many obstacles. uThe beginning of the season started out slowly due to phantom ailments.

Cross Country - 53 What a Racket! TWe had fun and improved remarkably even though we didntt have a winning season? said Patty Stearns, captain of the girls tennis team. The team performed well con- sidering it was a young and inex- perienced team. The squad was com- prised of seven seniors, three juniors, five sophomores, and three freshmen. Freshmen and sophomores played an important role on the varsity squad. Becky Kopp, a sophomore, played third singles. Julie Culver played first doubles. Sophomores Renee Billey and Lisa Frey played third doubles. Terri Saboye, a freshman, also played ex- cellent tennis at fourth singles and some third doubles. The team had only eighteen members. They were not able to field a full junior varsity team for all matches. Their record was 5-13. A high rate of absenteeism due to personal conflicts and jobs frequently hindered their total performance as a team. In spite of this, team members worked better together as the season progressed.

Girls Tennis 55 Robins Reborn as District 281 Team An athletic team named the Robins still exists in District 281, competing in organized hockey, softball and soccer. These Robins are not yet under the um- brella of the Minnesota State High School League tMSHSLl, and the District doesn't fund them or provide buses or uniforms, although it might next year. This new team is an outgrowth of Adaptive Physical Educa- tion and a league that provides athletic competition for those with a physical handicap which prevents them from participating in a regular athletic program. Lloyd Olson, former Hawks gym- nastics coach, provided the impetus and the coaching. ttActually, Olson said, ttthe idea began when I was at Marshall twenty years ago. The hand- icapped kids, who couldn,t play regular sports, got sick and tired of being waterboys and managers. tWe want to play' was what they told me. Itts no different now. They want to play? After finishing a sabbatical year, get- ting certified in the development and the teaching of the physically handi- 5 Kim Philavanch listens intently as Lloyd Olson explains the rules of the game. 56 e- Feature capped, Olson returned to District schools. My job is to seek new pro- grams and new ways in the district for the handicapped. He teaches one period a day at Robbinsdale Cooper and moves on to other schools in the district. Olson belives that since federal and state law provide for equal educational opportunities for each student, competition should be one of them. Along with Assistant Prin- cipal Willis Boynton, who made the presentation, he went before the education committee of the district. He volunteered to coach; parents volunteered to drive. The Board whole-heartedly approved and with enough interest will fund floor hockey, indoor softball and indoor soccer. With Olsonls push, a seven team league was formed. In addition to Robbinsdale, the teams are from Bloomington, Osseo, Fridley Anoka and the Minneapolis and St. Paul School Systems - not the twenty they need for the MSHSL ttto take them over, but for a first season, sit: E:E ft V. g is $7 Olson feels, an excellent beginning. The initial season focused on floor hockey, the team composed of junior and senior high school students. They needed a name, of course, and Olson smiled and said, We picked the Robins. Now we have the Hawks, the Falcons - and the Robins. One Hawk who is a Robin is Khamsaone Kim Philavanch, a wing on the hockey team. Next year, Michael Anderson, another Hawk, will play. We red- shirted him? Olson laughed. uYou know, We been a head football, gym- nastics and tennis coach; and We never yelled and screamed so much as in our first floor hockey game. I was hoarse for two days. We got a great defense. They got their wheelchairs out there and shut out our last opponent Olson was delighted. Hels delighted with the enthusiasm and support of the district and the parents. Now, he's hustling to get enough teams for MSHSL sanction, perhaps envisioning a day when his District 281 Robins win a state championship.

They started off with a win over Park Center. They had a disap- pointing loss to Armstrong, losing by one point, and ended up with a 3-3 record. The team was led by Tri-Captains Kari Raasch, Katie Lyden, and Jenny Hanauska. The coaches were Dave Doten and AI Goodwin. Coach Doten described the team as tihaving unri- valed spirit in a competitive nature. The Region meet saw the team give a strong showing with 22 out of 26 best times. They sent their 400 freestyle relay to state along with diver Linda Pit- mon who took second at Regions. The team had many strong per- formers including senior Katie Lyden, juniors Terri King, Jill Lester, and sophomore Keliy Terrell. These people helped the team all season long. 4A Terri King warms up doing freestyle. 4 Marcie Tuominen swims her backstroke. A Lisa Sharbono does Freestyle at Regions.

The team had a stretch when at least one varsity swimmer was out for a week. Senior Gary Harma was out for two weeks with a respiratory in- fection. Everyone else seemed to suffer from at least one cold. One place that didn't suffer much was the diving. Seniors Mike Roll and Dave Nardini dove consistently all year and helped the team with many points. Mike Roll went undefeated in six meets. The team was held together by Cap- Varsity Team Park Center Eden Prarie Wayzata Fridley Osseo Armstrong Hopkins tains Greg Theringer and Paul DeMorett.

Boys Swimming - 61 Gymnasts Take a Final Tumble No more will the still rings sway, no longer will trained performers perform on the bars; never again will agile athletes do flying cartwheels, double somersaults, and other floor exercises. For the past twenty years, Cooper has had a gymnastics team, but after this year, no more. Due to cut- backs by other schools, limiting competi- tion, there are few teams other than the Hawks. For the 'past twenty years, the Hawks have been very successful. They have had three state championships, six region championships, three conference championships, and five other runner-up spots. The last state champion team was the Armstrong-Cooper team of 1981. Said coach Joe Quinn on the Hawks history, What we did last year was last year. This is this year. Captains for the twen- tieth and last team were Cully Orstad and Gary Hunt. The Hawks had a losing season this year; but being a successful team for seventeen out of twenty years, one year doesnt make a difference.

Boys Gymnastics 63 Injuries Hinder Team Although injuries continued to set back the girls gymnastics team all through the season, the team maintained the same level of scores. This showed that the alter- natives were strong, and they improved during the season. The team, which had twenty-six girls, ten being returnees, was the largest team in three years. The standouts on the team were Karen Atkinson and Jill Hansing. Atkinson averaged nearly 35 points a meet and won several events at the Faribault Invitational. Jill Hansing averaged almost 30 points a meet. Sophomores Kris Erickson and Kim Wickstrom, and juniors Dayna Little, who managed to score 8.0's with a broken wrist, and Cathy Walth, had great potential. The team had hoped to have a higher average score, but with some of the leading gymnasts out with injuries, this was hard to accomplish. The team had six seniors, eight juniors, and twelve sophomores. The large number of non- senior gymnasts showed a lot of promise. The captains of the team were Pam Polack and Marcey Eckert. Pam Polack summed up the season: nThe team got along well together and worked tremendously hard, which helped them overcome the injuries.

The eligibility of goaltender Lars Kjaer was questioned, they had to forfeit some games, and team disunity created a mixed-up season. Lars is a native of Norway. He tried out for the team and won a goaltending position. The team had a 16-5 overall record and a 4-4 conference record, when Lars' eligibility was questioned. The team became split over the problem. The games Lars played in were forfeited. The record became 8-13 overall, with a 3-7 con- ference record. Lars was reinstated by the High School League, and the team became reunited as one. At the beginning of the season, the teams success was questionable due to the lack of goaltending and lack of returning letterman. Once the season began, the goaltending was superb and the 'team played well together. The team was having, nA better year than any other year? said Coach Ken Staples. After the eligibility problem was resolved, coach Staples said that he could only get the team ready for the play-offs. eAA Dan Arf skates back to help the defense.

THE BLUE LINERSP, said one of the leaders of the Blue Liners, Eric Webster. Webster, along with Chris McGinty led the pep squad, known once again as the Blue Liners. There were over one hundred students involved in the club, ranging from sophomores to seniors in- cluding both genders. They supported the hockey team at almost every game both home and away, although they did try to turn up at other winter sport activities. t Controversy played a major role with the Blue Liners as parents, not only b Eric Webster ham and egged it up.

A Enthusiasm ran high with the Cooper hockey fans. 70 - Blue Liners from opposing teams, but even from Cooper's teams complained about the groups usage of some words in their ever-so-abundant cheers. Athletic director, Stan Engstrom, said, They are a disgrace to the school. After much complaining, however, the Blue Liners and Engstrom compromised and had an enjoyable time rousing spirit. The Blue Liners, in their second year, were derived from the Rat Pack from Robbinsdale and the Dirty Thirty from Cooper, but was less exclusive on membership standards. Varsity hockey coach, Ken Staples said, nThe group was established to give moral support to the team, which is what they did.u g Cold Games Boot hockey, boot hockey, boot hockey. Boot hockey was a term heard during announcements before the winter break. What did it mean? It meant sixteen teams playing eight games during the cold winter months of January and February. The sixteen teams were not all men. There were three all women teams: the Strokers, the Maneaters, and the Stickhandlers. The games lasted approximately fifty minutes with twenty-five minute halves. There were four games a day, played Monday through Thursday. At the end of the season, there was a tournament with each team assured of three games. Brian Grott was the adult in charge. He watched two games at a time, calling penalties on undue actions that might cause an injury. 4AA A scramble for the loose puck. 4A Two boot hockey players battle for the puck during a bitterly cold game.

Senior captain Mark Beltz and junior captain Joe Gomez, led the team through a challenging and good season. Although the team was .500 during the regular season, injuries gave pain to many. Beltz was out with a serious thumb injury. Gomez was out with a neck injury, and illness among the squad occur- red quite frequently. The team had much to be proud, for many of their best efforts came at tour- naments. Senior Mike Moo Moo Moore took first place at the Cooper Invitational, Monticello Invitational and the Forest Lake Invitational. Beltz, Gomez, senior Garrett Towne, and junior Kraig Brink were among the wrestlers who always seemed to do well, both during tournaments and regular matches. Captain Beltz said, The team really learned a lot, and we seemed to get along pretty 900th Beltz along with Kraig Brink participated in the state tournament.

The team went from wins like 55-11 over Fridley, to losses by over 20 points. We had a problem with concentration sometimes? said Coach Miller. The team was held together by cap- tain Patty Schik. She helped keep up the team's morale during the slumps. The team didnit discourage easily, though, and were able to compile a record of 5 wins and 12 losses for the season. The coaching staff was led by varsity coach Jerry Miller, along with Judy White and Craig Young for the junior varsity and sophomores. The returning varsity players helped a lot, but didn't bring the team to their full ability. Coach Miller said, Wetre in one of the toughest conferences in the state.

Holding together is exactly what the boys basketball team did. Losing four games by just one point, including a one point loss to Jefferson who was ranked consistently in the top ten teams of the state, can be a big blow to many teams, not to mention being in one of the toughest conferences and regions in the state.

Boys Basketball - 81 Small Numbers Hurt Team The cross country ski team was small in number and plagued by injuries and sickness, which hurt the team. The number of returning letter winners was the smallest since the sport was started at Robbinsdale Cooper ten years ago. Theresa Enck said, nlli we would have had more people, we would have placed bet- ter as a team? While the boys team competed in eleven meets and had a 1-10 record, the girls team finished the season with a 6-8 record. Five of the six wins were in con- ference meets. In the regional meet, the boys placed sixth and the girls took third. Ten boys and eight girls participated. Commenting on the season, Coach Bob O'Hara said, nl thought we could have done better, but we did well considering the number of people who came out for the team. O'Hara, who has coached the team at RCHS for nine years, also said, ttlt was the first year that we didn't have anyone on the alI-conlerence team.

N A G R O Declamation Forges Ahead With New Ideas Declamation, an extra-curricular speech activity, stressed learning to speak in front of others rather than winning. Seventy-five people were involved in one of eleven different categories. The most popular divisions were creative ex- pression and prose. Competitors chose a piece and worked with their coaches to perfect it. They went to five festivals to gain experience in public speaking. Then they began rounds leading to state competition. A process of elimination determined who would compete. It was a special year for Cooper's declam because they hosted the Region finals. A region speech committee that met in the spring agreed that Cooper would host the competition. The coaches were an important part in the declam season. They worked with students any moment they had free ieven Iunchi. They were dedicated to help maintain their reputation of having a strong speech program. The thoughts of many of the coaches could be summed up by Phyllis Kromer, head declam coach. She said, nI enjoy work- ing with students and seeing the de- velopment of an idea. I enjoy seeing a personts capabilities expand and grow. A Anne Crampton does an extemporaneous reading wuth style. A Front Row: J. Almendinger, J. Taitt. Q. Nguyen, S. Bradford. Second Row: K.

Declam - 89 Four Qualities Honored The National Honor Society was not allowed to pass the flame to its new members at the induction ceremony January 30. That was quite a break with tradition. However, the ceremony was hot enough without the scandalous candles. Admission to NHS was a process of students applying and then being rated on scholarship, leadership, service, and character. President Scott Kahney; vice-president, Paul Norman; secretary, Anne Crampton; and treasurer, Julie Taitt spoke on these virtues at the in- duction ceremony of the new members. After the formal receiving of these newcomers and the honoring of the old members, the NHS vows were repeated following adviser Jack Thiedets lead. Elmer Kemppainen and Thiede spoke on the merits on being in the NHS. A lovely reception organized by the Robbinsdale Cooper Parent's Organization topped off the evening with a spark.

Though we communicate through writ- ten and spoken words, our body language is often a quick indicator of our thoughts and moods. We learn to speak with our bodies while young. Waving bye-bye is one of our first communication achievements. And remember hearing at recess, iiDonit point! Three fingers are poin- ting back at you! Our body language has become a bit more sophisticated through the years. While some gesturesare understood immediately, others are more am- biguous. Raised eyebrows, for example, A Bruce Gutknecht and Jim Hauck show their pleasure as Kim Heiland walks by. P Lisa Benson racks her brain for a math solution. FD Paul Stasica takes the senior stance. DDA Andi Johnson and Kyle Johnson indicate that they like each other. 92 - Feature may be interpreted differently in dif- ferent contexts. It means disgust after a surprise test is announced or perhaps shock, disbelief, or pleasure in other situations. A yawn may say, You are so boring! or nI worked until 3 am. A bowed head may indicate concentra- tion, depression, shyness, or un- consciousness. Referees have a body language all their own. Certain gestures are recognized at a glance. These include a flirt's wink, thumbs up, puckered lips, a tough guy's fist, tears. We use our body language, whether consciously or unconsciously, to com- municate with people around us. 4 Steve Durette's I don't care, stair slouch. -IV Amy Hogan flashes a look to kill.

Feature - 93 Hawks Quill Takes Flight The clicking of typewriters could be heard coming from room 238, the head- quarters for the Hawks Quill. It took much time and patience before they finally found a homeroom they all could be together in. Before many of us began the school year, the newspaper staff were busily preparing their first issue. They had to meet deadlines, and perfect their ar- ticles. There was a total of six issues which concerned the student body and school events. The ideas mainly came from the staff. Jackie Dubbe, the adviser, taught Journalism while she helped with the student newspaper. One of the reasons she advised the Quill was that she en- joyed seeing students' works being published. She said, ttlt is one of the few things for advisers in the extra- curricular program. I also like student writing? The editor, Lisa Blumb, did a lot of work organizing the paper. She typed all articles, corrected mistakes, and did layouts. Another equally important job was getting the funds for the paper. The money came from the district budget and advertisements. The staff had to apply for certain positions that they wanted. There was a total of twenty people that were picked for the staff this last year. DA Editor, Lisa Blumb relaxes in the staff room.

Editor-ln-Chief Helen Roberts and staff member Pam Schade attended yearbook camp at St. John's University in August. The theme On the Move was decided by staff editors during the summer. The new staff held a picnic at Lake In- dependence before school started, and the Talons tradition was kept when the editors, Helen Roberts and Rhonda Heise were thrown into the lake. The tension that accompanied deadlines was one of the biggest ad- justments for new staff members. Time was always in short supply, with last minute pictures and interviews sched- uled. Typing copy, planning a layout, cropping pictures and eating junk food often lasted until the late hours of the evening. Dedicated staffers sacri- ficed Halloween and braved a snowstorm to get to school to finish pages. When most students were in class, the Talons' photographers were taking pictures in school or traveling to locations, and when nor- mal people were sleeping, these dedicated photojournalists developed film. Constant confusion aptly describes the situation in Room 301. Although stress, hard work, long hours and sometimes hurt feelings were part of life on the yearbook staff, there were some good times to remember. A tribute was made to Oedipus and Jocasta in the happy days before the deadline, and the sudden appearance of the blue paint will never be forgotten. Many of the girls joined the Andy Dahlen fan club, and everyone had an opportunity to send a Claim to Fame to David Letter- man. A nearly disastrous car ride pro- vided a memorable experience for some staffers and half of the Homecoming Court. The money short- age faced by the staff added inches to their waistlines as they were the biggest consumers of their own fundraising candy. Other staffers worked at Dayton's Jubilee Sale, donating all of their wages to the yearbook. Despite all of the conflicts, busy schedules and near loss of their minds, the Talonsi staff gained some sense of accomplishment when the book was finally finished in March. Room 301 always provided a place to be with friends. A Rhonda Heise protests as Todd Johnson dumps her in Lake Independence. bA Jon, did you eat my talcum? Talons - 97 Everyone Needs a Friend The World Citizen's Club attempted to socially interact the foreign exchange students and willing American students into a group of internationally knowledgeable and friendly world citizens. According to Marti Reckdahl, World Citizen's Club's adviser, ttThs World Citizenis Club achieves an at- titude of international awareness and feeling. Hopefully, members will see that the entire world must work together as one. We must all stop see- ing the United States as an individual country. We are all a small part at one large country, the world. The club was the place where exchange students and American students made friends for the school year. Some may gain friendships with students of different cultures. Headed by president, Debbie Sarazin; vice president, Rhonda Heise; and secretary, Stephanie Smith, the W.C.C. set-up various events throughout the school year. The year began with decorating the gym for the Homecoming dance and ended with the showing of a film for the student body during Black History Month. The club also attend- ed the new City Center for early Christmas shopping and went on a sleigh ride in mid-December to celebrate the holidays. The club met officially every other Thursday after schooL The World Citizens Club actively supports the AFS tAmerican Field Servicel exchange student program, and used some of the money raised by the film to set up a scholarship for some lucky internationally interested American student to go to a foreign country this summer. The rest of the money was used to bring a foreign stu- dent to Robbinsdale Cooper. Zahra Haddass from Kenya, Africa, was given the scholarship and attended RCHS this past year. She was sponsored by the AFS. There were also six other foreign exchange students who attend- ed RCHS this year and were connected with the W.C.C. in some way. They are as follows: Regina de Castro from the Philippines, Ann Fackender from the land down under, Australia, Lars Kjaer from Norway, Anders lAndyl Lundsten from Sweden, Dan Randberg also from Sweden and Farhad Ahmed Sahlman from Saudi Arabia. All the students from the different countries were brought together as one to be a part of the World Citizen's Club.

Zahra Haddass is a 16 year-old girl from Kenya, Africa. Zahra's name translates to mean flower, and her last name means hero. Zahra was an AFS student who enjoyed her first time in America and especially liked the mid-November snow. Zahra commented that All Americans are weight conscious, unlike people in Alrica. That was hard to get used to. Among Zahra's favorite sports were volleyball and softball. A Four exchange students at RCHS: Farhad Ahmed Sahlman, Ann Fackender, Regina de Castro and Zahra Haddass. Manila, Philippines, is the home of 16 year-old Ma Regina de Castro, affectionately called Queenie. Regina scouted the local shopping centers for the best buys. She was used to a private girls' school in Manila, so imagine the thrill of a school with boys in it. Regina was friends with all the boys. They are much nicer than girls! Ann Fackender hails from New South Wales in Australia. Ann was unsure of the United State before she arrived, but that soon changed. All my misconceptions ol the United States were cleared up once I lived here. Americans aren't such bad peo- ple. Ann stated that Americans eat a lot, and she gave into temptation. As a result she gained a few extra pounds. Seventeen year-old Lars Kjaer lives in Oslo, Norway. Lars was a star goalie for the RCHS hockey team this year. Lars discovered that being so totally immersed in the English language caused him to live, think, and eat'English. He had no regrets on coming to the United States and hopes to return. I didnit leel ditlerent or foreign at RCHS. I was accepted as a part of the whole student body. A Scandinavia is well represented by Lars Kjaer and Anders Lundsten. Anders Lundsten is a true Swede from Hassleholm, Sweden. Anders was a busy young man taking full opportunity of all classes and activities offered. He was an avid slalom skier and also participated in declam. Anders loved the American com- puters so much that he even took one home to Sweden with him. He liked the idea that 'tSchools in the United States em- phasized human relations, which is an attitude and a way at life in America. Dan Randberg is from Vasteras, Sweden. Dan had a definite purpose before he came to the U.S.: I wanted to grow up and learn to live on my own. I wanted to see what it was like to have to make new lriends and live in a strange country. Dan spent Thanksgiving scuba diving off the Florida Keys, while get- ting a Florida tan. Farhad Ahmed Sahlman came to FiCHS from Qatar Dotta near Saudi Arabia. Farhad was a name hard to pronounce so he soon became Sammy, taken from his last name. Sammy came to the United States to attend school and learn about our culture. One of his favorite activities was watching American football. nFootball in America is very different and very hard!' A Sweden native Dan Randberg.

One squad was devoted to hockey, the second squad cheered wrestling, and the third squad dedicated itself to basketball. Senior Paula Soderberg explained, Cheering only one event allowed us to pick the sport we liked the best. That way we have more spirit. Concentrating on just one team allowed the cheerleaders more time for school work and jobs, if they had one. The three squads also alternated performing at several of the girl's sports.

The Cooperettes devoted half of the summer and most of the school year to dancing. Performances at football, soc- cer, basketball and hockey games, as well as appearances at pepfests, were only a part of their grueling schedule. The line performed at six competi- tions, taking third place at the Stout competition, and were honored by an invitation to dance at the Winter Car- nival Pepsi Challenge. During the sum- mer they marched in many parades, taking second place in Whiz Bang Days and the Crosby parade. Jan Reinke, the line's new adviser, was responsible for helping with prob- lems and dealing with the principals. She showed up at practice every morn- ing to offer her opinions about the routines. Each of the different dances was choreographed by co-captains Michon Olson and Shawn Habbin. Numerous fundraisers, including car washes and selling Aquatennial pins, tickets for the Crystal Frolics, and Tup- perware, helped each girl to pay for her uniform. Part of the money was used to sponsor the Jack-of-Hearts dance and Snow Week Coronation in February. A Front Row: K. Montgomery, H. Bernu, S. Habben, P. Scoilard, L. Conner, J. Taitt. Second Row: S.

The squad practiced for 1V2 hours every day after school perfecting their new seIf-written routines. They then performed these routines to the music of the band at pepfests, halftime at football games, and at basketball games. The squad consisted of Co-Captains Teri Butterfield and Lisa Frohrip, both seniors, and newcomers Cindy Berg and Wendy Larson. Wendy, in addition to her regular routines, also twirled a routine at the Homecoming variety show. The squad was advised by Marching Band director Roger Thompson. Their operating funds also came from the Band Fund. Rifle Squad - 107 D Tammy Kenow twirls at the pepfest. V Flag twirlers march to the song When I'm 64. Twirling With Style Swoosh! Slam! Wham!

Many of the students would dodge the flags because of the fear of being skewered. The practices were conducted by cap- tains Colleen Connelly and Renee Larson. The entire squad made up the routines and performed them at basketball and football games.

Record snowfalls and bitter- ly cold temperatures hit the Twin Cities area. A crippling winter storm invaded on 'Thanksgiving weekend, and 29.8 inches of snow fell in less than two days, stranding travelers and putting a damper on the holi- day celebration. Because of this, the students and staff of RCHS were granted an extra day of vacation. School was closed Monday, November 28. December brought two more feet of snow, and icy temperatures. For over a week, the temperature remained at sub zero levels, and on December 19 the mer- cury reached an all time low of minus 29 degrees. Not even the unearthly temperatures were enough to slow down the true Min- nesotan, however. Many RCHS students shoveled their way out of the house and took advantage of the heavy snowfall to try skiing or sliding with friends. A few ended up enjoying the snow in their faces as they became involved in an old- fashioned snowball fight. 4 Jam Johnson, Tim Rayford, and Dawn Tilbury don't know when to come in out of the cold. 4A Tom Dick throws a snowball.

Db Marching Band 110 - Marching Band Moving on With Style When seventh hour approached, the Marching Band usually was going outside to practice and perfect their routines. Many people did not know what all was involved in Marching Band. To them it seemed like an easy task, but to the members it was a lot of tedious, hard work. The person who was mainly responsi- ble for the routines performed out on the field was Director Roger Thompson, along with the help of majorette Karen Atkinson. The combined efforts of these two showed in the half-time shows at the home football games. The show consisted of different formations and songs centered around one specific theme. Some of these themes were sports, music, and the fifties. The last football game, however, has traditional- ly been the senior show. The theme, which was food, formations, and direc- tions all were from seniors. Incoming sophomores managed to add a little humor to the band. Senior Cully Orstad said, It can be humorous when on the tirst day the band goes out and marches, the sophomores constantly turn the wrong way. After they had marched their last game, they moved inside and practiced their music for their first marching band concert. First Row: Roger Thompson, P. Raum, K. Helms, C. Orstad, 8. Nelson, P.

Marching Band - 111 Class 11A Music 2Real nice kids with excellent potential? was Concert Wind Ensem- ble and Concert Band I director Don Spanglerls description of the four bands. They performed concerts on Dec. 12, Jan. 25, May 7, and May 9, as well as the Marching Band Concert on Nov. 12. The Symphonic and Concert Wind Ensembles and volunteers from Concert Bands l and II combine to form the Marching and Pep Bands for fall and winter sporting events. As in past years, the band's funds came from the Happenings book and fruit sales. The students sold these items to raise money to pay for their spring band trip, traveling to spread their music to other schools outside of our area. Many of the students who take band have played their instruments in a band for up to eight years and will play all three years in high school band. Senior Lyn Morford said, I have enjoyed band and the music welve played these past three years. In addition to regular band, many students also take or give private lessons, and play their instruments in the Jazz Band, Or- CheStra, or Other.musw groups.

Jazz: A New Era Until approximately the 1960ts, Jazz Band was not allowed in the public schools. Since then the music cur- riculum in most schools has expanded to include jazz. Educators wanted to give students a chance to participate in a greater variety of music. In 1968, Roger Thompson began a jazz band that was called the Stage Band. Since then, the name has been changed to Jazz Ensemble. The content of the group varied greatly. Thompson said, HWe are work- ing on a wide variety of music from rock to swing to dixie which is really the purpose of the band. Some of the pieces they played were tiPurculator 114 - Jazz Band and New Orleans Jazz Portrait. All their hard work was evident at their performances. They played during the Homecoming breakfast and the January 25 and May 9 concerts. They also toured with the band on the annual bandtrip. Although those fifteen students did not receive credit for the course, they still practiced three times a week in a large group and two times a week individually. An overall reaction to the year was best said by junior Chris Betat: I think Jazz was a really neat class, and I am glad that I joined it? A Sophomore Dave Adair watches the director while the band practices. V Junior Dale Parr enjoying a practice. New Name, New Look The group, formerly known as the Madrigals, changed their name to the Chamber Singers. The reason for this was consistency between the two schools, and the fact that there are twenty-five people in the group rather than the traditional number. The group consisted of twenty-five voices: seven sopranos, six altos, five tenors, eight basses. They practiced second mod throughout the year. The members took this class for no credit. They were chosen through try-outs, and were the selected few to form the group. The Chamber Singers went caroling downtown, and performed at many dif- ferent restaurants, singing such songs as Mary Ann, and Silent Night. During Homecoming week, they per- formed at Coronation, singing The Prune Song, and iiMary Ann. The Chamber Singers performed at the two choir concerts and competed at the state vocal contest. They picked their own outfits, coor- dinating them to match. The girls decid- ed upon pink, long dresses, while the guys picked black tuxes, with pink bow ties and cumberbunds. Senior Tony Fredericksen said this about the group: iiI think Chamber Singers gives us a better variety of music to sing and lets us participate in a lot of fun activities. A Front Row: J. Olson, A.

Chamber Singers - 115 Choir Sings in Perfect Harmony HCDh Come All Ye Faithful . . was the magical number that the audience heard by the Select Choir as they pro- cessed into their December 20 concert. The choir performed in two concerts, on December 20 and May 15. They also performed in the district festival, sing- ing iiRequiem by Gabriel Faure and Regina Colli by Mozart. Both Select and Concert Choirs competed in a large group vocal contest. Performing at the state vocal were seniors Tony Fredericksen, Michelle Saumer, and Heidi Zahn. Also performing were the Select and Concert Choirs. When joining choir, there is a choice of Select or Concert. For Select there are try-outs. Anyone may be in Con- cert. For the men, there is a menis choir and for the girls a treble choir. The new addition to the choir group is a small group consisting of voices, called the Madrigals. Director Dick Kioos created this group to enable the people in Concert choir a chance to perform in a small group. tiChoir is a great way to meet new people and prepare yourself for a career in music, said senior Michelle Saumer. The choir worked many long and hard hours to earn money to go on the choir trip. They did that by selling trash bags in September and cookies in mid-November. They raised this money so that they could perform at a festival at Gustavus College and also at Mankato College. : The choir has a tradition of every year selecting officers. They did this by nominating candidates from both choirs and then having both choirs vote. This past year the president was Tim Mortenson; vice-president, Jon Olson; co-treasurer, Wendy Moen and Michelle Saumer; and secretary; Tim Rayford. A Front Row: M. Keske, K. Atkinson, T.

Choir 117 Quality Music The orchestra directed by James Berg, was composed of sixty students who have had many years of musical experience. Besides being actively involved in or- chestra at school, some members par- ticipate in the Greater Twin Cities Youth Symphony. They were Petra Engen, Richard Pakonen, Jolene Selover, Alan Berggren, Maria Mimick and Adrienne Wester. The latter three belong in the symphony. It was composed of eight or- chestras, and auditions for them were held at the beginning of the year. They par- ticipated in the Midwest Music Convention in Chicago on December 12. Many times during the year the or- chestra played at school functions and outside activities. They performed at the December 12 and May 7 concerts. The music played would, nLean toward classical because it develops the player better. They also play lighter things. A big event for the orchestra was the Oratorio, with guest conductor Dr. Jones. The Armstrong and Cooper or- chestra and choir performed in that. Voluntary members received superior ratings on their performance at the Solo and Ensemble Contest. Traditionally, the orchestra has been an important part in the production of musicals. During the first two weeks in March they played in the musical Babes in Arms. The musical orchestra was voluntary and involved many after school and evening practices to perfect the music. AAb Junior Maria Mimick works intently on her music.

VVV4 Senior Jeff Oman is one who uses the smoking area. The Designated Smoking Area tDSAl has sparked heated conversations ever since it opened. The non-smokers of the school find the smoke offensive; but the smoking population needs somewhere to smoke. Originally the ttloungei' was created to avoid the problem of smoking in the bathrooms and other areas of the building. Mr. Stensrud said they were re-evaluating the need for the DSA because nsocietyts attitude toward smoking is changing, and the school reflects society. Ms. Breher said she feels it is a necessi- ty because she remarked, I have lived without it and there wasnit one bathroom that was fit for a non-smokerii It is a privilege that is not taken for granted by those members of the student body who use it. The complaints concern- ing the smoking area were few. Hl like it, but it would be perfect if they just opened a lunch hour. Three minutes for a cigarette isntt enough, Jeff Oman said. ttThe DSA shouldntt be closed; bathrooms would be overrun with smokers? Maggie Smith said. ttSmoking in the bathrooms makes me sick, too? Smith added that the name Designated Smoking Area is more appropriate than the Smoking Lounge, which is misleading because there are no chairs or even port- able space heaters in the area. 120 - Feature AA4 One of the all-time favorite brands.

Feature - 121 Checkmates and Pawns One group of intellectual com- petitors in the school was the chess team. The team consisted of seniors Joe Longen, Dan Storkamp, Dave Win- theiser, and sophomores Tim Rader- macher, Phil Mickelson, and Joselyn Shackelford. The outstanding players were first board, Joe Longen; second board, Tim Radermacher; and fourth board, Dan Storkamp. The chess team finished the season with a record of six wins and one loss. They were the division champions and went to the city tournament at the end of February. The winners of the city tournament then go on to compete at the state tournament. Most of the chess players have played for many years. They started in elementary school. Then they played in junior high and here on the senior high team. According to adviser Doug Andrus, nChess is an individualized sport, and it you learn to play as you are growing up, it will be with you tor the rest of your life. The season started with weekly meetings of the chess club for about two months. Andrus then picked the five or six best players, and they became the chess team. The chess team plays other schools including Armstrong, Brooklyn Center, and St. Louis Park. They won the state cham- piOnship and went to Philadelphia for the National Meet.

They traveled to other schools including South High, Osseo, Park Center, St. Fran- cis and St. Cloud Cathedral on Saturdays to compete in three or four round debates. The team consisted of Jim Mossey, Jon Zabinski, Dave Osberg, Dave Wintheiser, and Glen Hughes. They competed in five tournaments and one demonstration. The high point of the season was a victory over Blake. . The 1983-1984 debate question was Resolved: That the United States should establish uniform rules governing procedure of all civilian courts in the na- tion. The debaters then either bought evidence cards or went to the library to research their arguments for or against the topic. Since they learned about the same topic the entire year, they became very knowledgeable about the particular subject. Debate was divided into two levels. The novice category was for all first year debaters regardless of grade. The ex- perienced level was for all those that had been in debate before. Debaters were judged by impartial judges from schools not competing. The debater had to rely on the interpretation of individual judges which varied from time to time. According to adviser Don Blore. Peo- ple win even if they lose their debates, because they learn many things which they can use in college and later life. Some members of the team entered the VFW Voice of Democracy radio contest. The contest topic was My role in upholding the Constitution. Jon Zabin- ski took first place, Jim Peppe took sec- ond place, Dave Osberg took third, and Mark Kovach and Dave Gustafson got honorable mention. The winners all received monetary prizes.

Debate - 123 Standing Up For What They Believe in Student council was a group of con- cerned students who attempted to lawfully change certain rules and regulations within the school system. The council was headed by president, Frank Goodrich; vice president, Jim Peppe; secretary, Brad Lloyd; and ad- viser, Don Blore. The council tried to agree on needed changes within the school system. Mr. Blore hopes that government-bound students learn, Hthat if you follow law and good ideas, it leads to good results.u The entire student body saw this come true in the 1984 school year with the much wanted honor pass system. The honor pass had been in the mak- ing for over one year, and was finally enacted during the second semester with the extra help of honor pass committee members Jennifer Miller, Kathy Berry and Jenny Gorzycki. The system was supported by almost all in the council; and through the help of many more dedicated students, the system was implemented during the second semester on a trial basis. The system will be evaluated by staff and students to decide the future of the honor pass. Frank Goodrich worked closely with Superintendent Dr. Donna Jean Carter to help make the council more valuable to the students. Frank Goodrich said, nDr. Carter is very in- formative to us. She is a neat lady who wants to make the council worthwhile to all. If the council is A Don Blore speaks to the entire council. rA Stacey Fuller brings up an important issue as Paul Lentz and Bobbi Johnson listen. b Student council officers: Secretary, Brad Lloyd; president, Frank Goodrich; and vice president, Jim Peppe. 124 a Student Council not worthwhile, it will just be another small scale activity with no purpose. The council expressed their thanks to Dr. Carter and her help in achieving a better student council. Finally, adviser Don Blore expressed his concern over the students missing valuable class time in order to attend meetings rotating every other Wednes- day periods 1, 2, 3. Mr. Blore hopes to see the day when there will be special periods within the day for all extra- curricular activities. This would allow students to not miss valuable school time and enjoy activities too. Maybe the council can work on this one? As Don Blore said, itWhen you know something ainlt right, stand up for it. The 1984 student council did just that. .. .And a Half Pint of Milk. i iGood morning Robbinsdale Cooper. These are your morning an- nouncements. Such began the PA an- nouncements, which were read every day during homeroom. nlily first day as an announcer was so traumatic because I thought that I would make a mistake and the whole school would laugh at me, said Dawn Tilbury. The tradition of student announcers began some years ago at Robbinsdale as a way to demonstrate leadership and responsibility. Cooper had them, also, at one time. When the two high schools combined in 1982, students asked Mr. Kemppainen if the tradition could be continued. Working out the procedures with Ms. Kromer, he agreed. The announcers were selected at ran- dom on a volunteer basis, but many were in Kromer's speech class, Mr. Plutts drama or oral interpretation, or in declam. Two head announcers were in charge for each quarter. Assistants worked for two weeks under the responsibility of the head announcers. ttl built up enough confidence to do announcing, said Lucy Karels. It's like nobody is there listening, though I could hear the echo in the halls. We stress professional work. Sometimes there are negative reac- tions to off the wall jokes,u said Kromer. The announcers had the power to edit and change wording. Also, reading the announcements, which were ap- proved by principals, helped. ttl can't read thislt' and ttHow do you pro- nounce this? were comments made by Jon Olson while reading over the PA.

Announcers - 125 Cabinets Share Mutual Interests The Sophomore Class Cabinet was a tradition that ex- isted to select the class of 1986 rings. The Cabinet chose Jostenis as a representative and was headed by twenty-year Industrial Arts teacher John Youngren. The committee con- sisted of one individual from each sophomore homeroom. According to Youngren. sophomores were not as apt to get involved as seniors or juniors were, so as a result, very few sophomores actually participated on the committee. This was Youngren's first year as adviser. He feels, nStudents; have improved over the years because of the changing times!' More than likely, the sophomore ring committee will continue as a tradition at RCHS. Along with the sophomores, the seniors had a tough task ahead of them this past year. President, Bruce Gutknecht; vice president, Jim Peppe; secretary, Patti Schik; and treasurer, Paul Demorett helped to make the Cabinet a true success. The Cabinet had many noteworthy activities, that involved a lot of extra hours and unique efforts. Most of their activity focused on senior graduation, deciding what colors the tassels and ribbons would be. As always, graduation can hopefully take place outside at Mielke field; but just in case Mother Nature strikes, they planned an indoor ceremony to celebrate adulthood.

All planning, scheduling of events, food and decorations were selected and delivered by the Cabinet members and adviser. Headed by Addy Murtaugh, the Cabinet members met fre- quently after school in room 122, con- tinually planning the May 19th Prom ac- tivities. With the help of president, Jenny Gorzyckl; vice president, Bill Ayshford; secretary, Leanna Fahlin; and treasurer, Lori Cybyskl, the Cabinet made the Prom at Radisson South a success. The Prom didn't just happen. The planning started early at Homecoming with the selling of Kempwiches and pom-poms, and con- tinued with the February selling of the popular computer matches. All the fund raising together raised nearly $900! The money was used to supply decorations and finance the 2-year veteran Prom band, Quasar. This was Addy Murtaugh's fourth year as adviser, and she found it an enjoyable experience. Ms. Murtaugh said that the two main goals of the Cabinet were to pro- duce a better Prom and reduce the cost to the students. She also felt that the Cabinet helps to develop leadership qualities. Most of the planning was done beforehand by the adviser, and the students are assigned to develop the plans. Murtaugh feels that more school time is needed to meet with the students to take some of the pressures off the adviser and allow the students to really take charge. She said, The adviser has to take on some of the respon- sibilities because the students are hard to locate and are not at my disposal at all times? The Junior Class Cabinet remains high in the nucleus of Prom activities. 4A Adviser Addy Murtaugh explains Prom activities to Jenny Gorzyckl and Leanna Fahlin.

I Junior Class Cabinet - 127 Helping Hands A group of very special people who contributed much to the school this past year were the student aides. They work in the main office, the guidance office, and in the A.V. Department. According to office aide Debby Peter- son, Itis fun to work in the office because I can get more into the running of the school. The main office aides' duties are to mark attendance cards, open and send mail, and to generally assist the office secretaries and principals. The guidance aides answer phones, take messages, make student ap- pointments, write out passes, and do other work that trees the secretaries to do other duties. Kim Hall Said, I work in the guidance office because I like to help people. The A.V. aides' job is to take care of the various audio-visual equipment, to set up equipment, and to deliver film projectors and other equipment to the teachers in the classrooms. A A.V. Aides: G.

Work Clubs Offer Unique Experience A unique experience was offered to career minded individuals through Cooperative Education. Through Cooperative Education students could participate in one of the three service type clubs offered. The three clubs are, HEART iHome Economics and Related Trainingl. DECA tDistributive Education Club of Americal, and CE iOffice Educationl. These clubs are a part of what is known as the Co-op education triangle. The triangle includes the in- class learning situation, on the job training, and the club was the place for the students to come together and share their experiences. The HEART club, headed by Sue Manikowski, was a service organiza- tion whose main purpose was to serve the community. Part of the ser- vice was collecting canned goods for the food shelf to be distributed at area churches for Thanksgiving. In the spring HEART was involved in a show put on for senior citizens at North Ridge. Not only did the club serve people, but the students within the club gained valuable work expericence in jobs related to Home Ec. such as Child Development. This allowed the students to get advanced placement if they decided to continue in their related job field. Another division of the Cooperative Education department was the DECA club, run by Mr. Gagnon. In the club, students also gained valuable work ex- perience in jobs related to Sales, Marketing, and Management. During the 1983-84 school year, DECA spon- sored Casino Night during homecoming week, and also participated in a pro- gram sponsored by Dayton's at Brookdale. In the program, the students in DECA offered their time to work as salesroom attendants. DECA was paid $3.35 an hour for each student's time put in. It was well worth it for DECA rais- ed nearly $600! In the spring DECA sold concessions at the musical and ran the school store. nIt's greatlt' commented Mr. Gourley, ?'?EWiig A Front Row: M.

Ex- perience with computer technology is also offered. In the fall, OE club members solicited Entertainment books to raise money to attend the leadership conference held last fall. All three of the clubs raised sufficient funds to attend the competitive events competition held in MinneapolislSt. Paul, in March, and even had extra to go out for breakfast together occa- sionally. In the competition students competed against each other for trophies in various job-related categories, such as Speech, Manage- ment, and Typing.

Work Clubs - 131 132 Division E ACADEMICS Division 133 The Principal Is Your Pal HWhat exactly do principals do besides yell at kids who get in trouble? You may have heard someone ask this. Its true that the most visible duty of principals is disciplining, but they do many other things vital to the running of the school as well. During a typical day, a principal might hold two or three parent conferences, talk to students referred to his office for one reason or another, supervise and evaluate one or two staff members, and patrol the halls during the lunch periods. Each prin- cipal is also responsible for a particular grade level and certain departments with which he maintains contact. The main goal of the administration was to provide the best learning environment possible. They did this by making sure each teacher had a room that helshe was comfortable in, and also by providing ade- quate equipment, facilities, and supplies. In general, the principals just kept the school running smoothly. Although nobody enjoys disciplining all the time, most principals enjoy what they do. Richard Stensrud said, ttThe best part of the job is when I see a kid come in as a sophomore with a lot of problems, and then help him along the way, and see him graduate as a mature, responsible, adult.u DA Elmer Kemppainen, Head Principal 5 Richard Stensrud, Assistant Principal 134 -- Administration 4 Jack Theide, Assistant Principal 4V Willis Boynton, Assistant Principal V Dr. Erv Garbo, Assistant Principal 4VV John Lloyd, Assistant Principal Administration - 135 Communications for All The Communication Department of- fered a wide variety of courses. They had twenty-nine courses taught by seventeen teachers who continued to prepare students for the future. Those writers who were college bound took College Com- position. With notecards and liquid paper in hand, they plunged into research books and card catalogs with intense investiga- tion. This research was an important part of the course, which as Carol Moore said, ttrespects clear thinking and honest writing - challenging both thought and linguistic powers. For those students who preferred a more imaginative approach to writing, creative writing was an option. In the course, students were encouraged to ex- press themselves creatively through poetry, essays, and short stories using their own experiences. Another class that explores creativity in depth is humanities taught by Mr. Luebke, who has been teaching ttlong enough to know that I shouldntt tell how long We been teaching? It began with the tradi- tional confusion of the Fat Hand Pac and assignment sheets, which, yes, are only for one quarter. When the initial shock sub- sided, the students soon learned the value of the course. ttHumanitiesit said Mr. Luebke, ttaffects how we look at things, and this creativity is the impulse that makes life worthwhile? This positive attitude is confirmed by department head, Pat Billig, who said, nWe have a strong staff who are good at what they do, and the diversity in the staff and the curriculum offers many op- portunities to students. Whether students are college bound, in- terested in creative expression, are dramatically inclined, or want to learn more about themselves, the Cooper Com- munication Department can provide the opportunities. w r 7AA Carol Moore helps a student with his theme.

All sophomores took American History, where they learned about Americats struggle for self-government and how the democracy has changed over the years. In World Area Studies during their junior year, students discovered that every different culture has a M x i Gar Holley Gene Huisken Glen Nord Gaylord Marti Reckdahl Steve Schmidt Marge Ferris Ken Staples Rasmussen Mark Welter Courtland Swenson unique way of meeting the basic human needs of food, clothing, and shelter. By in- forming the students that other cultures are not wrong but different, World Area Studies teachers hoped to reduce pre- judice. Jana Selover liked her WAS class with Dr. Welter because, tttherets no tests, we're paid to be there, and we get yuk-yuks every Friday. What a deall On the other hand, Tanya Soukup gave a tense, No comment, about her social class. In their senior year, students struggled through economics and government. Economics presented them with the basic problems of consumers, how an economy functions, and why inflation and recession happen. After taking government, students had a better idea of how the Con- stitution works. They learned how the two-party system operates at the federal level, and what their responsibilities are as a citizen of the United States. In addition to those required courses, the Social Studies Department offered two electives. World Religions helped students to understand and respect religions other than their own, through discussion and reenactment of different religious rituals such as the Jewish Passover Seder dinner. Michelle Sporna said, nClass discussion, rather than lectures, is what makes the course worthwhile. Psychology was an extremely popular elective. According to Mr. Boeddeker who teaches Psychology, the main goal of the course was to understand how com- plicated even the simplest act is. Students studied the behavior of all organisms, from single celled protozoa to rats, dogs, monkeys, and humans, because many behavior principles apply equally to all forms of life. One example of behavior analysis is to ask why people eat. The most obvious answer is because they are hungry, but people also eat because they are bored, because the clock says it is mealtime. or because they derive security from food. Through studying examples like this, the students gained a new insight into their own behavior. Social Studies - 139 WMW w ., A Sid Buffington gives individual help to Scott Kahney and Eric Solberg.

Individualized Math Courses The math department offered courses ranging from the completely individualized fundamental courses to the freedom of Advanced Math. Mr. Buffington said, nThe freedom of the Advanced Math class provided a new learning situation which prepared students for college. Although students were required to take only two credits of math, many hard- working scholars followed the program through Geometry, Higher Algebra, Trigonometry, an'd Calculus. Another popular choice was Computer Math. It was so popular this year that there were even shortages of computers. Cathy Michael said, Computer Math is almost a necessity in this day and age. Everyone should take the course.

Mr. Micheal Sparrow, an exchange teacher from England, spent the year teaching science here. Mr. Harry Dixon, one of RCHSis chemistry teachers, taught in England as part of this exchange program. Mr. Sparrow easily made the transition from switching to a large American high school from his middle school of eight hundred students. Mr. Sparrow thoroughly enjoyed his stay at Cooper. He found HAmerican students more mature and better able to accept criticismti than his English students back home. He believed that the students here at Cooper were Hvery pleasant and well-mannered? Mr. Schober summed it up best when he said that tiMr. Sparrow has been an in- teresting and valuable addition to the staff? Not only had changes in faculty oc- curred, but the science curriculum had been altered slightly. Placement of en- riched chemistry students was decided after performance evaluations after first quarter. In addition to the basic biology, chemistry, and physic courses, a new class called Future 2000 was offered.

A large number of them par- ticipated in the programs, which consisted of written and oral work. The Language Lab also provided students with other listening aids in the form of cassettes. From this work, language participants said that they have learned a great deal and have had even more fun. There were game days of bingo and scrabble to im- prove fluency. Some sold candles to aid class trips, and many others planned to visit Europe in the summer. The French students went to Lihotel Sofitel and the Walker Art Center, and even made foreign foods which helped develop new cultural interests. Foreign language not only developed new interests, it also created new oppor- tunities for the future. Stephanie Smith who took three language courses said, ttForeign language is almost a necessity today, because it opens doors to future careers.

For those who liked to sing, there were many choirs to choose from. The choirs included Concert Choir, Treble Choir, and Select Choir taught by Mr. Kloos. There were also special vocal groups of Chamber Singers and Barber Shop Singers. For those who enjoyed playing in- struments, Band and Orchestra were of- fered. The bands included Marching, Concert, and Symphonic Band and a special Jazz Band under the direction of Mr. Roger Thompson. Mr. James Berg directed the orchestra and also taught a very challenging Music Theory course. In addition to challenging the students' talents, the groups also gave the students a chance to travel. After endless sales of Happenings Books , oranges, and cookies, the Band, Or- chestra, and Choir piled on buses for their annual trips funded by their sales. This helped the students feel involved as well as gaining performing ex- perience outside of school. ttThese feelings of involvement are important in high school, said depart- ment head Mr. Spangler. ttBeing in- volved in music lets the students gain an appreciation for music, develop new talents, and teal a sense of belonging?

One of these is to try to stifle the stereotype that only boys are enrolled in LA. In- dustrial Arts classes are open to anyone who is interested in taking them. Terry Loushin, chairperson of the department summed up the Industrial Arts goals in one statement: nOur main goal is to provide a comprehensive program that meets the needs of as many of the students that is feasible!V Robert Marsh John Youngren Terry Loushin Don VanHeel Future Skills The Home Ec teachers have been at- tempting to gain approval for setting up a support group for single, teenage mothers and also a daycare center for their children here lat Robinsdale Cooper; They believe that many of the mothers drop out of school because they have to stay home and raise the baby. This new concept would not only help the mothers, but it would also be involved with child development and relationshipslfamilies classes. Besides the cooking and sewing classes, others, such as child develop- ment, relationshipslfamilies, housing, and consumer education, are also offered. In today's single-society, Home Ec courses are very helpful in teaching students how to prepare themselves with basic or advanced skills when they graduate from high school. Marie Rudolph, a junior who took the advanced clothing class said, ttThe class taught me how to sew my own clothes which can be a big help with expenses in the future. It also taught me to be creative in making my own patterns. For years Home Ec teachers have been trying to suppress the old stereotype that only girls take Home Ec. Although there still aren't many boys enrolled in Home Ec, there seems to be more than in other years.

Cal Belden, Hugh Boeddeker, Arlie Bomstad, Sid Buffington, Caryl Bugge, Elmer Kemppainen, Iola Kludt, Betty Marcell, Glen Nord, John Youngren, and Fran Zabel were all given special recognition for working twenty consecutive years at Cooper. Charles Anderson, Richard DeGuise, William Driver, Carol Moore, Florence Mosal, Ken Staples, Richard Stensrud, Eugene Sullivan, Charles Tabor, and Mark Welter are teachers who currently work at Cooper who helped open the building twenty years ago. Many educational changes have taken place since Cooper opened. More Either Kemppa' Glen NO i courses are offered now than ever before. Requirements are less strict. Cooper has seen the transition from a traditional six period schedule to a flexible, modular schedule to the present eight period day. Focus upon special education is much greater to- day. Cooper's support staff has ex- panded to include many diverse per- sonnel such as in the areas of chemical dependency and job placement. In the past two decades, Cooper has experienced emotions along with the nation. The Viet Nam era brought hostility into the classroom. Feelings of anti-establishment, disregard for authority, escaping the draft, and in- creased use of narcotics plagued students. Some staff members still iota Kmu John Youngren remember the Iunchroom boycott for chocolate milk. Yet Cooper has always maintained a high level of school spirit. The first pepfest was held on the outside lawn. School unity peaked in 1975 when Cooper competed in the state basket- ball tournament. To show support dur- ing the infamous high school closing decision, Cooper students joined hands and formed a ring around the building. For the most part, students have re- mained the same. Principal Elmer Kemppainen feels that today's students are at a higher level of sophistica- tion than those of twenty years ago. He also believes that students have more open communication with the staff. Feature - 149 Getting Down to Business The Business Education Department offered skill subjects such as Word and Data Processing, Shorthand I, II, and Ill, Typing I, II, III, and Business Machines. In addition to the skill courses, related learn- ing subjects were also offered. These in- cluded Accounting, Records for Home and Business, Business Law, Sales, and Marketing. Another special addition to the cur- riculum was a business seminar for seniors using work related skills. The students became assistants in the library of the guidance office and put their skills to practical use. Also, an additional program was offered which taught keyboarding skills. The pro- gram taught the elementary students of Lakeview, New Hope, and Zachary Lane fundamental keyboarding skills, building foundations for future business study. The students in regular classes were ex- posed to a wide variety of material at the entry level. With the nine teachers who have worked in business, the classes suc- ceeded in simulating a business at- mosphere.

With its many tables and carrels, the library seats about 150 students. Some came for a quiet place to study, while others worked in the computer area or worked in conference rooms. Others came for recreational reading from the many books, magazines and newspapers. Also, a teacher-generated listening and view- ing service gave students a chance to check out filmstrips and sound tapes upon a teachers request. Others came for the reference ser- vices. Students could enjoy the advan- tages of microfilm, a pamphlet file and computer tapes. Many others used non-fiction books for research and had easy access to reference materials. Also, sophomores were taught media skills by the teaching librarian, Ms. Friedman. Other classes also made use of her experience after learning how to use the library. Knowing how to use the library and its reference materials, said the head librarian Ms. Yuzna, ttis a skill students can enjoy using all their lives.u The school's other media service, the Audio-Visual Department, is more related to production and equipment. The department underwent an expan- sion to provide more area for television and student productions. Hugh Boed- deker's psychology room was annexed to become the A-V office, which is where faculty members went to check out equipment and order films.

For beginning art students, the Foundation Design course was offered to begin technique experimenting. Other classes in which students explored art were Jewelry, Crafts, and Commercial Art. Special sections of the department were the Advanced Painting class and the ln- dependent Study classes for advanced students. Another special section was the Seminar course which provided independent exploration with a smaller class size. Another special feature of the courses is the broad spectrum of ability levels. Mr. Chagnon said, nBecause creativity and motivation are on different levels with different people, the curriculum gives everyone a chance tor consistent development.

They helped with registration twice a year. First, they gave advice to students who were having trouble deciding which classes to take. Then numerous registration forms were filled out and sent to the computer. Finally, the counselors had to change schedules that were incomplete or dissatisfactory to the students. The counselors also assisted many students in post-high school planning. If a student was confused about what to do after graduation, helshe could seek help at the guidance office.

Mr. Bob Barton, the teacher, said, nI want the students to be aware of how different the world will be in 30 or 40 years. The students worked in small groups and used creative problem-solving tech- niques to come up with solutions to prob- lems such as robotics, space colonization, future transportation, video games, and genetic engineering.

One such special lady, Irene Glass, has been on the job since the school opened twenty years ago. She said, ttWhat a compatible group the culinary artists are. Nobody will admit to any disasters in the kitchen and a catastrophe is regarded as the ex- ception to the rule. The food service per- sonnel love their work, and the students love the food.

Person 2: Seriously? Wow! Person 3: Aw, donit be so impressed, he drove on a date with me Friday night and he went over four curbs and drove down the middle of the road all night! Tenth grade, the year of change, the year 16 year olds get their license. Within a half an hour at the Plymouth Driver's Station, the sophomore changes from a child into an adult. All barriers seem to come tumbling down: never again to miss a special party for lack of a ride, or to experience the embarrassing moments of an intimate date to the movies with Mom in the front seat. The joy of a license is short-Iived, usually ending abruptly with the payment of the first tank of gas.

It means going from the big shots of the school to the babies, a very humbling experience. While in ninth grade, students enjoyed a feeling of superiority, a chance to act above everyone else and even look down on and tease the seventh and eighth graders. Sud- denly they are the ones being teased and looked down upon. Unfortunately juniors and seniors are often less merciful than ninth graders when it comes to humiliation. What sophomore could re- main calm at the thought of initiation? Oh my gosh, do they initiate all the sophomores? frightfully exclaimed one sophomore. Not officially. Only a few selected sports teams are initiated such as the girl's tennis, volleyball, and the B-squad cheerleaders. Actually, being a sophomore isn't as scary as itts cracked up to be. Itts an ordeal everyone must go through, and then it may be forgotten. Or, one can relive their sophomore year through the torment of others. w .. wt Scott Gardner Elroy Geislinger Nancy Gellerman Holly Germundson William Gianos Blaire Gillie Lucas Gleason Tara Goad Renee Godden Daniel Goettl Theresa Gooley Joseph Gorman Trisha Grages Kelli Granlund Scott Graves Lisa Grimes Bradley Gustafson Raymond Gustafson Richard Haapala Micheal Haase Joy Hacker Jeffry Haglund Thomas Halford Alan Hall James Hallaway Daniel Halverson Erik Hamre Rebecca Hanauska Sophomores - 173 James Hancock Shelah Hand Duane Hankey Bradley Hansen David Hansen William Hansey Cari Hanson Mi Wha Hanson Tracy Hanson Douglas Harmon Kristen Harris David Harrison Shannon Harvey Daniel Hassinger Robert Haupt Richard Havlik Douglas Hawkins Shannon Hegge Michael Heid Susan Heiskala Paul Heisler Kellie Helms Michael Herbert Charles Herlofsky Dawn Hess Daniel Hesse David Hesse Joseph Hettle Keith Hiljus Kimme Hillstrom John Hines Ellen Hogenson 174 - Sophomores Kurt Holkestad James Holmberg Lisa Hopkins Colleen Horbal Clinton Hotchkiss James Howard Kimberly Howe Bradley Huber Kristine Huber Daniel Hukriede Richard Hume Chris Hunt Diane Izzard John Jacobsen Roger Jacobsen Nancy Jacques Beth Jahnke Carrie Jensen Jill Jerdee Theodore John Andrea Johnson Andrea Johnson Brenda Johnson Brian Johnson David Johnson David Johnson Derek Johnson Erika Johnson Gary Johnson James Johnson Jay Johnson Kevin Johnson Marnie Johnson Matthew Johnson Michael Johnson Robert Johnson Ronald Johnson Scott Johnson Steven Johnson Sophomores - 175 Steven Johnson Todd Johnson Micheal Jones Tonia Jones Chad Jungers Robert Jurek Daniel Kaisershot David Kathman Kevin Kehn Susan Keiser Lorena Kempf Heidi Keske Robert Kiffmeyer Yalanda Kinchelow Brenda Kingsbury Amy Kinnander Chris Kinowski Amy Kitzman Todd Klipstein Eric Kloos Suzon Klucking Dawn Kluevein Marlene Knock Lisa Knutson Kathleen Kodalen Deborah Kolstad Rebecca Kopp David Kovach 176 - Sophomores Living Through High School Sophomores, if your thoughts ran something like this, this past year, HGosh, high school isnit that hard. In fact, the homework was pretty easy to handle, you had better watch out for the next two years. You will be com- pletely surprised as to how much your attitudes change towards homework the closer you get to graduation, even if your homework gets easier. Most of the time, sophomores are very ambitious when they get into high school. Even though tenth grade is harder than ninth grade, more freedom and wider choices of courses spurs the average sophomore to work harder and even hand in a little extra credit on the side. They find that high school is much more fun and satisfying academically than junior high is. Sophomoric attitudes change a little in their junior year, but the most change takes place in their senior year. Seniors have this unexplained urge to pro- crastinate. Many call this disease senioritis iinflammation of the Seniori. The number one cause of this disease is the fact that graduation is less than a year away, so they feel they have nothing to worry about. Homework should be a breeze after being in school for twelve years already. Then after they realize that it isn't going to be a breeze, they try to work harder. No matter how hard they try, they can never seem to get their work done. Instead, they end up watching every sit com that they have been missing for the past three years. It is a tragedy. Hopefully, some day, someone will find a cure. Be warned sophomores, your day is coming!

Cooper High School. Fran Zabel, Sid Buffington, and Mark Welter, each of whom were teaching here twenty years ago said that although Cooper had a name, it did not have a school song, colors, or a mascot, except for the kindergarten classes that attended this school. They did not have a Homecoming that year, but had a welcom- ing instead. Not unlike 1983-84, there were fads and fashions in the years 1963-64. Hard rock was first coming in that year. Girls had beehive hairdoes, full of hairspray, and horned rimmed glasses. Teachers' fashions were a tie, white shirt and dress slacks for men, never jeans, and the women teachers always wore dresses. Although 1963 may seem extremely dif- ferent than times are today, people today have much in common with the pioneer students of this school. They cared about how they looked and conducted their ac- tions responsibly, much as teenagers to- day do. In Buffingtonis opinion the attitude and social appearance of this school is closer to the way in which it was twenty years ago than it was ten years ago. He said, nl have to work harder today, but I like the swing back to the more conser- vative attitude?

Visable in their outstanding new school clothes, they clustered in groups with their junior high school friends, wondering what the new year would have to offer. Soon the bells rang sending them squealing in opposite directions through the halls, uncertain as to why this odd-shaped brick building was supposed to be so special. Turning a corner, a B-squad cheerleader comes to a sudden halt, eyes open as if she had seen a ghost and her heart races - was it . . .? Yes, it must be .. ., the man of her dreams! The tall beauty walked past casually pretending he wasn't aware he was superman. Still dazed she walked on in a blind stupor, feeling she had found true love. The next thing she realized, her books were scattered upon the floor and she stood face-to- face with a massive blond god. Her face became flores- cent as she fumbled for her papers. He winked at her as he helped pick up the folders. She thanked him, and raced down the hall, knowing now for sure the reason this school was so special.

Daniel Storkamp, a junior, co-owned his own company until it merged with a larger company. The name of the company was Meldark Wreaths. He was co-owner and president with fifteen employees working under him. I started the company because I wanted a chance to earn money and enhance my future. lid highly recom- mend the experience.u The company grew rapidly, and he was soon overloaded with responsibility along with school, so he merged with another company run by his father. Along with the suc- cessful merger, he now holds the title of manager and accountant.

Bill Bellfanz won first place in the preliminaries for jazz dancing in the ; state of Minnesota and went on to the Symposium Na- t tionals to win sixth place. He became interested in dancing two years ago : through a brochure in the mail from the Dance Shoppe at 63rd and Boone Ave. He practices at the studio one hour a week and one-half hour a day at home during the other six days of the week. Before competition, he prac- tices for two and one half hours per day twice a week. The cost for this hobby is $22.50 for one and one-half hours of practice a week. His other interests include music and drama. The reason he gives for enjoying dancing so much is, ttBecause itts just fun. I meet a lot of interesting peo- ple, especially in competition.

So why is it that when we are forced to say goodbye, we feel the most childish? We cry, we feel sorry for ourselves, we are selfish and wish we could stop time. We want to keep everything the same way, the safe way, the way we are used to. Change is exciting, but also frightening. Leaving friends we love and are comfortable with, or watching them leave us, makes us feel helpless and alone. Promises are made to keep in touch and yearbooks are signed friends forever , but deep down there is that knowning feeling that things will never be the same. Although we may write letters and see one another occasionally, nothing can compare to the familiarity of seeing one another every day, the way we did in school. Of course some friendships have been formed very deeply and will re- main close, even through separation; but the majority of our high-school acquaintances fade slowly away over the years. New opportunities arise, new situations emerge, and new friendships are made. Memories remain, though they do fade sometimes.

For example, the sophomores get all the attention because they're always being teased, Soph-o-more! and being helped because they can't find a class, don't know what period it is, or just because they are a Sophomore, the same as the youngest child. Juniors are just there, the newness of high school has worn off, and graduation is still a long way off, much the same as a middle child. Seniors on the other hand, always come first and have the light at the end of the tunnel, graduation, to keep their spirits up, much the same as the eldest child. The junior year is the year of choices. It is the year when a high school student makes all of the decisions for his or her future and forms many of their adult values. It is the year when a person comes out of his or her adolescent shell. The junior year may be a person's most important year in a high school career. Thus it is evident that a junior year must be used to mature one's self so that the decisions made as a senior will be wise.

There are gradua- tion parties galore and celebra- tions of freedom for all students. Combine these with sleeping until noon, watching soap operas, lying out in the sun, and there goes the day. There's no problem yet. However, once August arrived, probably you were still sleeping until noon isome habits are hard to breakl, but the soap operas have become so predictable theytre hardly worth watching. The parties have Stopped coming so fast and furiously; and those who were hosting the parties are now packing to go off to college. There's still one month of vacation and one or two years left at R.C.H.S. So what do you do to combat this boredom and depression? How do you cope with the I dontt want to go back to school, but at least it would keep me busy feeling? Some students work during the summer, part or full time. This seems to be a good method to cure summer blahs and earn money. Hanging out at the area beach is also a popular way to spend a summer afternoon as well as a good spot to meet old friends and make new ones. If being sun- tanned and golden is one of your values in life, the beach is just the place. Anyone with a little creativity found something to interest them and keep them busy over the long summer.

Karen Jean Evans Rhonda Marie Evenson Jennifer Anne Fitzer Todd Arnold Floyd Vicki Joan Fortman Over the year, a favorite pastime of seniors was going to parties. Although there were all different kinds of parties, the main purpose was to have fun. One kind of party that was different from the rest was academic parties. At these parties, the main purpose was not only to have fun but also get the particular assignment finished. These parties were especially helpful to those seniors who didnlt understand a part of an assignment because they could ask their friends. The most frequent parties were from the Physics, Humanities and Calculus classes. These were the subjects that seniors found most troubling and therefore needed the most help in. Although this was only one kind of par- ty, these parties were different because they helped the senior to decide whether to do homework or to party.

MTV is a 24-hour station devoted to video rock. MTV has been showing videos since the ?;- .g x 5 summer of 1981. The videos that Melissa K. Klinkhammer Michele M. Klinkhammer Linda Jean Klipstein John Kennedy Knaeble MTV Showed ranged from hard rock to top 40 rock to new wave. Not only did MTV show the videos of the songs that were popular, but they also showed videos that date from the late 60's and the early 70ts. Videos were an easy way for groups to publicize an album or a single, since it was easier to get T.V. playing time rather than radio playing time. Although MTV was a , , . x . - t video rock station, MTV did more Karen Kathleen Knock Allen Bradley Knudson Julie Dee Knutson Marie K. Koerner than play Videos- Every ha hour, MTV had music news, which told viewers about concert dates, new groups and albums, and special music events. On Friday nights, MTV had video fights where MTV showed two videos, and viewers called to vote for the video that they pre- ferred. The video that received the most votes went against a new video the next Friday. Every Satur- m . a , .. . . I . day, MTV featured a different Mary K. Koerner JillMarie Kolles Timothy James Korsmoe Russel PauiKoshiol QVOUP in concert on the Sunday Special, MTV had interviews with rock groups. Every once in a while, MTV had a contest where viewers could win gifts such as a media room, a trip, or a car. Although MTV may not live on, it certainly started a musical revolution.

As the end of high school draws near, graduates-to-be find themselves faced with many deci- sions. Although high school does not seem easy - with all the madness of trying to keep a job, a social life, school, and numerous other activities balanced, the change from high school senior to high school graduate is a big change with many options. Many graduates choose to fur- ther their education. Whether through public, private, or com- munity colleges, these people have elected to stay in school. Although the basic choices have been made, there are many decisions that are still ahead. Which college or univer- sity to attend, how to afford further education, which field to major in, and whether or not to leave home, are questions that were in the minds of college-bound seniors. By talking to counselors, admissions directors, family, friends, and pre- sent college students, seniors are better able to make decisions about college. Some people aren't planning to go on to college, but they are going to leave home. Marriage, living with friends, having a job, or becoming an exchange student, are oppor- tunities that seniors have if they decide against college. Because of the high cost of colleges, many people will work for a period of time to make money for school. Some people are just tired of homework and want to take a break from schooling and start their career rightaway. The financial security that a life in the military offers also attracts some graduates. Becoming all that they can be is a tempting idea, as are the thoughts of serving our country and perhaps traveling. Leaving high school is a big step and also a very nerve-wracking decision. With the help of families, counselors, and friends, people are usually able to make this a very worthwhile and exciting change. It has been said that high school is the best time of a person's life, but hopefully it will only have been the beginning of an excellent life. .v Vie? .

That's the key word for a true senior. They put off any and all assignments until Al they lose it, Bl they can talk their best friend into doing the paper for them, or Cl they decide that it's too late to even begin thinking of the assignment. Although many sophomores and juniors live by the senior's sacred codes, the underclassmen can't be a true senior. The art of becoming a true senior is a special rite of passage in high school, and only seniors have the ter- ritorial right to be cranky, tired, and behind at least three days in all classes. The true senior wishes that homework was just a joke and either treats it as such or a t a , p else stares at it while hoping that it will disappear. After E? l t . f E? all, how can any teacher expect a senior to do EEEE E ' 1 g g V E homework when they haven't been able to get into their i ' locker since Homecoming Week? Dawn Renee Ross Michelle Marie Rossmeisl Madonna Maria Rumble Another sign of the honest-to-goodness senior is that they don't get too upset about anything. A real senior's motto is ttl don't care . . . and even if I did Itm too tired to do anything about it? Real seniors never make any noise in class lbecause theyire usually trying to do their government 'assignmentl, they never show off teverybody already knows that they are the greatest - so why brag?l, and they never bother anyone tbecause they are trying to think of an excuse for not having their government paper done.l The best part of being a senior is that, in early early June, these strange people transform into graduates and have a little more class. Wait a minute - then the juniors become seniors and the entire process begins again. Mew John Joseph Ryan Mary Lynn Ryan John Albert Sable mpg At Paul Joseph Sable Patrick Lynn Saice Kevin R.

The ACT lAmerican College Testl consists of verbal, mathematical, social studies, and natural science questions. These tests are used by col- leges for admission re- quirements, and certain scholarships also require a score from them. The deciding factor of which test to take depends upon which college a person plans to attend and which test that college requires JamesArthurTernus Gregory M.Theiringer Terry Beth Theissen PatriciaAnn Thoe for admission. However, some seniors took both tests. The booklet that students got before they took the test sug- gested getting enough sleep the night before; but if you were like some seniors and didn't start filling out the personal ques- tionnaire until the night before, you probably didn't go to sleep at the time they suggested. Also, some seniors wanted to study for the test. Therefore, they went out and bought a book with a title such as How to Beat the SAT. Then after they took the test, they had to wait weeks before the results came in the mail. Some people were satisfied with their scores, but some of those that were not satisfied took the test over. However, after all of this, seniors had to wait to find out if they were ac- cepted to the college they wanted to attend. Just think, almost all seniors go through this experience.

O 252 - Closing News Action in ,84 Hitting a Nuclear Nerve The made for TV movie, The Day After, opened our eyes to the poten- tial devastation of a nuclear holocaust. Carl Sagan predicted that all life would cease to exist due to a ttnuclear winter. Survivalists planned for post- bomb life by digging shelters, storing food, and learning survival techniques, Locally, Honeywell was the target of pickets and protest camps outside their building. Ericka Bouza, wife of the Minneapolis Police Chief, was arrested for protesting. Nationally, the controversy became a campaign issue. Abroad, the West German political party called The Greens con- demned arms build-up in Europe. They supported a human chain stretching throughout the German countryside and peacefully made their views known. The Soviet Union and the United States continue to build arms.

Closing e 253 Musical Notes Michael Jackson. Love him or hate him, there was no avoiding him or his music in 1984. Jackson was the biggest star in the music in- dustry with monster hits such as Beat ltit and Thriller? His album itThriller became the best selling album of all time, and Jackson won a record eight Grammy awards in February. Other artists besides Jackson made important musical contributions. David Bowie, the Police, and the Rolling Stones all had new releases, and newcomer Quiet Riot had great success with their album Metal Health. On the 20th anniversary of the Beatles ttinvasion of America, a new wave of British performers rose to the top of the US charts. Boy George and Culture Club, the Eurythmics and Def Leppard were among the most prominent of these new acts. Trends . .' . The most obvious trend of the 1983-84 year was the Cabbage Patch Doll. Mobs of shoppers literally rioted to pay the high price and adopt a Cabbage Patch Kid. Designed by computers, no two were alike. The world of computers became larger and more encompassing.
