That is a definition that may have made sense to a student in Mr. Anderson's economics class but it didn't mean a lot to most people. It didn't answer “How does it affect me?” To each Islander it meant that tuition and fees increased about 14%. The approximately 20% increase in some MTC fares made getting home from school a more costly trip. Non school expenses also went up. Movies were $4-$5, non designer Lee jeans cost $25 and big name tennis shoes were in the $40 range. This year inflation was more than a classroom subject. It was something that affected everyone, every day. Costs 5 Paying the Bill$! Upper Right: Gray Pikkarine gives a sigh of relief at quitting time.

Expenses outweighed Dad’s cash reserve and Mom's cookie jar. Ideas tumbled about the student's mind in an attempt to solve this problem. Finally, a solution. Something drastic had to be done — they had to find a job! Jobs were scarce. Unemployment rose as work availability decreased. Teens had to demonstrate skill, initiative and responsibility in order to make it.” Acne was no longer the leading cause for teenage frustration, now finding a job topped that list. Where did one find employment? A number of students worked at school, employed in De La Salle's work program. Cleaning blackboards and sweeping eraser tips from the floor paid minimum wage to those crafty students and allowed them to deduct their earnings from their tuition costs. Other students found jobs through Mr. Evans, responding to the job offers he periodically placed in the daily bulletin. Restaurant and supermarket work dominated the teenage employment force. Babysitting and lawn mowing followed not too far behind. Tasks varied dramatically from job to job but for the most part the financial rewards made up for the effort. A minimum wage of $3.35 encouraged the teen workers to reach their money making goal. Jobs were sought throughout the city in an attempt to stay out of debt. Hours upon hours were spent on the job to pay for the hours upon hours that money was to be spent. 1983 placed another requirement on the high school student, the part-time job.

A room with a door that shuts out the daily hassles, provides a sanctuary filled with your familiarities and favorite “stuff.” Stuffed animals of long ago and not so long ago. Posters of heroes, old and new. A bulletin board of souvenirs: old play programs, flowers, awards, team pictures of friends. Your room is the place you display what’s important to you. And then there’s furniture ... A stereo (for listening), a desk (for studying?), a phone (to talk with a friend), a bed (for sleeping). Even though your room may never be in Better Homes and Garden. Jr. Miss, or Gentlemen's Quarterly, it’s still the best, because it's yours. The worst thing about a bedroom is your Mom is always telling you to clean it up!

If high school students were famous for only one thing, it would be for making the best excuses. For what? For anything and everything. In this feature, we will only deal with the excuses for being late to class and for not doing homework. Some of the excuses may be a bit far fetched, and some may seem a bit standard, but they were used. Whether they were accepted by the teacher, whose most common response was Where's your note?”, or not is a different story. Why are you late for class? I was talking to Mr. Lieske. Someone borrowed my book notebook pen and I had to go find them. I opened my locker and everything fell out! I had to go to the bathroom. I was talking to Mrs. Fraser. I got trapped in the bathroom. I never heard the bell ring! Honest! Whoops! Why do you not have your homework the proper utensils for class? You never assigned that 1 didn't hear you say that. My dog cat hamster pet snail had to eat something. The cat ate my gym suit. Dutch elm disease. My little sister brother used it to finger paint on. I just had it!

If there is any breed of human that can waste time all of the time, it is the high school student. What a student and a non student consider to be a waste of time is very different. Below are some things that students consider to be a waste of time, and some things that are not listed as a waste. What high school students consider to be a waste of time Doing homework. Going to class (you will fall asleep anyway). Cleaning (it gets dirty again 30 minutes later, so why bother?). Economics. Term papers (especially English). Things that would never be a waste of time to a student Eating lunch. Music tour. Partying! Gossiping in the Casanova room. Sleeping. Partying! Roaming the halls. Following heavenly bodies. Sleeping, a non waste of time becomes an art Thinking up new ways to cut down wilh Practice- lowans. Partying! Joseph Wallerius Christopher Wenthe Patrick Wickham Steven Williams Thomas Willman Kathryn Willner Seniors 21 This feature is dedicated to those people who thought life was over after graduation. As the years go by in high school; many people are asked the same question: What are you going to do after you graduate?” How many students have thought about that at the age of 15? Teen agers do not realize that there IS a life after high school, but you have to work at it as soon as possible to make it meaningful and worthwhile. Three of DeLaSalle's prominent alumni, Kelli Maroney. Albert Hofstede, and Brother Luke Herbert knew about that life, took a few chances, and ... look at them now! Kelli Maroney (picture at right): The most important thing I can say to the graduates of this year and the others is. Do Not Be Afraid To Believe In Your Dreams. Follow those dreams and you will never have any regrets or mutter words resembling 'If only ... or I could have...' 20 years from now. Kelli had a lifelong dream to become an actress, but she did not carry through right away for fear of being laughed at. Finally she realized that acting was what she really wanted to do with her life. Even though it was what she wanted, the career counselors tried to convince her to minor in theater and pursue a safer career. Who can change the mind of a restless Senior? Look at this restless Senior now. a regular on ABCs soap opera Ryan's Hope. Albert Hofstede: High school was the preparation for entering the adult life. DeLaSalle set up the Christian values and morals that help in everyday life. Is There Life After High School? Coming to De from the seminary in the middle of his Junior year, he spent most of the time involved in many different activities in order to sell himself. The Christian values were the main things that aided him in the political governmental career he has had. In the 1970s. he was elected the first Catholic mayor of Minneapolis. Never allow people to take your values away or walk all over you because of who you are. Look at him now, a partner in North State Advisors, a governmental assistance company. Brother Luke Herbert: Many years ago, Bruther Luke (William was his real name) was faced with the reality of his future. God and his strong beliefs made that decision for him. He felt he would be the happiest in a religious field, but which one? Time and lots of hard work later. William was given the honor to be a Christian Brother, with the ability to teach children about their faith and about music. He spent many years teaching in Winona, at a grade school and at Saint Mary's College, but the place he felt the most comfortable place to teach was at DeLaSalle. his own school. For many years, he taught music to the students and became a permanent fixture at De. Unfortunately, he had to move on. and ended up back in Winona. In the late 1970s Brother Luke died after visiting the school he called home. One thing he did leave was his words of wisdom. The music that you hear is your heart telling you what to do. Do not follow others, because we all march to a different drummer. Whatever you do as Seniors, remember.

Where were you? Admiring lockers? You have to be kidding. Try it. And you might see a jock locker filled with neat team pictures, game sheets, sweat socks and of course, the smell of hard work. If you've never seen one try and look at Tom McLauglin's. Rich Prewett’s locker shows another type, the rocker locker. This one can be recognized by the concert ticket stubs, tap tapes, mini-posters of stars and lots of buttons. But most lockers fit into the general category. They are filled with stuffed animals, pictures of friends, especially those of the opposite sex. mid-morning snacks, beauty aids and even a few books. Tom Dotray, Theresa O'Neill. Angie Gjerde.

Style? Birthstone? They are a few of the questions Juniors have to answer before they buy a class ring. The $80$ 125 price tag makes class rings a major purchase for most students, one that requires some thought and perhaps some budgeting too. Some people may ask themselves, ' Why buy a ring at all? Is it another expensive fad or just an old fashioned tradition? Class rings were first worn by the 1835 graduates of West Point Military Academy. They were later adopted by other colleges and finally became popular in high schools. While wearing a class ring may be an old tradition, it is not necessarily an old fashioned one, because the ring represents more than the ability to pay for it. Wearing a De La Salle ring marks the wearer as a proud Islander. Buying a class ring is a hard decision. Sue Eickhoff, Marla Parrott and Peggy Johnson try on some rings for size. Juniors 27 Where Has All the Money Gone Today's craze is video! Has it really hit De? IT HAS!! Three-fourths of students surveyed in this questionnaire play video games. They spend a weekly average of $10.25 and play for approximately three and one-half hours. This money spent and time employed develops favorite games. Donkey Kong was rated the big-time favorite video, with Centipede followed by Pac Man. Looking for a winning Christmas gift? Forty-one Quarters would be a hit with a lot of Islanders. This is one answer to the question: Where has all the money gone? Melissa Fries. Pat McGrath and Ann Pawlitschek with quarters in hand are ready to have some fun.

Or Homecoming 1982 when Sandy Snyder and Nathan Carson won this honor? The class of '85 is close. And they share many experiences as well as some well-kept secrets. Where is the clock taken from the Freshman hall? Whose fist went through the school's basement wall? Who was always jumping out of the windows during Religion class? And, another question closer in time — Who signed the “F Petition during the first trimester 1982? Yes, this class has good memories shared by friends. They say “thanks to the upperclassmen as they look forward to broadening their own horizons, strengthening their friendship ties, and graduating as the class of '85.

This gave a look that was sometimes disarrayed, sometimes OK but mostly everyday. Always remember, though, to every rule there are exceptions. And they know who they are with their spiffy scarves, bright colors and their original sense of style. The time has come to look back at the fashion trends of 1982-83. Actually, there is not that much to look back at. It was sort of a boring year around the halls of De. In fact, one could probably say that the trend here was to dress as boring as possible, which was carried off quite well. The new” trend this year was a repeat of old trends. Oh sure, some pizazz” tried to sneak through the back door but it was toned down. Many old styles were mixed with each other to form a very comfortable look. In some cases so toned down it could put one to sleep. However there were some noticeable trends. The everpresent jock wardrobe was common. Everyone recognizes the look because it was around fifty years ago and will probably be around for fifty more. This half-dead style consists of half-dead clothes: old jeans, old football jerseys, old flannel shirts but new tennis shoes. A few Islanders modified severe Punk into their own style of quiet Punk. Miniskirts with matching shirts and little tennies. instead of motorcycle jackets and mohawks, characterized this style. Another look rejected by the fashion world but favored by some students is the preppie look. All that's needed for this super clean cut style is a few alligators, some red tags, and a sturdy pair of boat shoes.

The clock-radio awakens them, the ■’Walkman accompanies them to school; and after school the corridors echo with ’box sounds. Fifty-two percent of surveyed Freshmen chose WLOL FM. which mixes hard rock and soft, as their favorite. Hard rock KQRS FM and KDWB, were second and third respectively. In a tough DJ competition WLOL’s morning team Hines and Berglund took the trophy. Hines, overjoyed, said. Well, that sure is nice. Their counterpart on 101. Chris Edmunds was second and KQ's Lyn Wells was third. Sounds resound in the halls of De to the delight of all Frosh. 40 Freshmen William Mountain Hugh Mulloy Mary Murzyn Michael Nagle Jon Namyst Teresa Nemeth Minh Nguyen Edward Newton Stafford Norris Denise Novack Diane Novack Michael Orth Brian Paar Freshmen Suzanne Pedersen Lori Peterson Freshmen 41 Christopher Phelps Thomas Pitleck Thomas Pulling Amy Ranheim Mary Reeve Mark Reha Angela Reidner Jane Rider Michael Rider Rebecca Rodriquez Carla Roscoe Daniel Roth Christopher Roy Robert Roy Lloyd Ruffin Steven Sande A Date With . . . What could be more exciting than a date with John Stamos? Most Freshman girls responded, nothing.” But some argued that Sylvester Stallone, Harrison Ford or Mikhail Baryshnikov would be fantastic. The Freshman boys were asked, who would you like to be stranded with on a desert island, have a romantic candlelight dinner with, or just meet for five minutes? Cheryl Ladd was the most popular choice, with Jane Kennedy and Stephanie Powers not far behind. Obviously this year's Freshmen have great taste. It's sure hard to decide who is better 42 Freshmen Jacki Schlink Kimberly Schwengler Michael Sharp Richard Smith Joseph Soukup Sheila Stewart Tracy Stone Lara Sullivan Leslie Sykora Patricia Tabor Lisa Tangen Michael Taylor Troy Thompson Mathew Vien Julie Vosika John Wallerius Michael Warner Thomas Weiland Leah Welch Cherylyn Wieland David Wilson Renee Wojack James Zondlo Freshmen 43 Administrators Upper Left: Bro.

The teacher practices reading fiery political speeches nonstop in a dead monotone and then, analyzes San skrit and other ancient characters in order to develop illegible hand writing. These are only two possible warmup exercises for a very challenging day. After arriving at school and going to their assigned mail slot (and depositing much ol its contents in a circular file) the typical teacher ad vances to homeroom. There he she reads the morning prayer, which is often translated ‘‘Lord, help me through this day. Then he she ad vances to the daily announcements. When asked what the daily bulletin contained, confusion mounts. When challenged, the teacher makes a facial expression even a baboon would understand. Attendance is also taken in homeroom, and all too often the wrong cards end up in the office. Teaching, the main activity of the day begins. Now the teacher's exper tise in dull monotone and in decipherable scribbling sets the stage. As the students enter the classroom, the teacher takes atten dance, raises his her voice, makes threats, and settles into his her prepared monotone. Students begin to drift into hazy, semicomotose states and are aroused only by another falling out of his desk. Of course, the bell sometimes jolts them back into action. They leave the room quickly and the teacher prepares for his her next class. This satirical look at the typical day was written by Mr. Leigh Anderson. Upper: Mr. Leigh Anderson.

Academics 63 The People to Ask Where does the school get all its ideas for different activities? From the people in the Student Union. Homecoming week was lots of fun. with every day bringing something different to do or wear. Publicizing all the events was done by the Union. Even though the posters were sometimes misspelled, the message came through. Who decorated the halls for Christmas and Sno Daze? The Student Union, of course. The Sno Daze Carnival, which raised money for charity and for various school clubs, was a new activity sponsored and organized by the Union.

In the Islander, the school newspaper, a prohibition poll found the school to be ‘ wet.” Editorial topics included “Backbiters, ' Thomas Edison, and “politeness, and the The Voice of the School” won first class ratings nearly every year. This year, the paper’s sixtieth, it tackled more controversial subjects, with editorials about draft registration and an article about the showing of a sex education film. Editor Brendan Downey said that the paper is free from censorship by the administration and may print “anything which is in good taste. The Islander won a third place award from the Quill and Scroll society. The newspaper was published monthly by a staff of forty members.

This workshop proved to be the incentive needed by the staff to start the many projects of the year with enthusiasm. These major projects included the two colored pages, and the four-color cover. But the staff also had fun. Besides two yearbook parties, the staff sponsored the Italian Village Booth at the Sno Daze Festival, using the profit to help pay for the cover. A goal of the coeditors, Juli Wolyniec and Shannon Oglesbee, and the whole staff, was to create a new and sharper look for the yearbook. A New Image Ut9S Upper Center: Dave Olmstead.

Delta 67 Dance — Dance The Dance Line which had been discontinued in 1979 80 was reestablished during the 1982 83 school year. The new Dance Line had some important differences. A group of girls led by Colleen Sullivan began working last year setting plans for the new group. An advisor. Libby Croteau was hired and her experience in choreography provided the expertise needed to start the group on the right track. Because the new Line was initiated by its members, they have shown their dedication and determination by attending daily one hour practice sessions and their performances at home games and pep assemblies. The practice sessions were spent in warm up exercises, practice of old routines and development of new ones. If Ms. Croteau wasn't present the sessions were led by cocaptains Colleen Sullivan and Karen Jespersen. Even though this was their first year, the Dance Line began setting a standard of excellence that they hope will increase their membership and perhaps lead to participation in state competitions. 68 Dance Line Page 68: Upper: Sara Bumgarner.

Where were you when you saw a gorgeous girl in a mini black and gold skirt, matching long sleeved sweater, black 'n' white shoes who was jumping around and shouting V I C T O R Y? Were you: (a) at a De Game, (b) in a mad house, (c) at a kinky party? While many may have answered “c” the correct response was at a De Game where the cheerleaders were performing. There was more to being a cheerleader than wearing the uniform. The varsity squad spent one week in Moorhead, Minnesota this summer at a cheerleading workshop they financed with the profit from a successful car wash. There they learned and practiced new routines to share with the school and to better show off their school. Before their performance at each game the cheerleaders put in daily practice time. They were also involved with decorating the school for Homecoming, fundraising and organizing Pep Assemblies. Cheerleaders 71 Center Left: DLS fights to a scoreless tie against Holy Angels.

The biggest change was Coronation, held for the first time during school, on Friday, Oct. 8, at 9:45 a.m. While the band played, the football team formed an honor guard while the nominees processed to the platform. The ceremony proceeded until Tracy Cerisier and Brian Ellendson were crowned Homecoming Queen and King. The week continued, each day with it’s different activity. Monday was hat. tie and button day. Tuesday was punk day. Wednesday being 50’s day, Thursday was costume day, and Friday being black and gold day. All these events were building up to the Fun Day on Friday. Students had no classes, but participated in activities with their homerooms. Senior homeroom 306 came out on top. Immediately after school. October 15, a parade of cars left De'' to head for Benilde St. Margaret, where the game was to be played. As the spirited crowd, led by the cheerleaders, cheered, the football team played an exciting game, leading to a heartbreaking loss to Holy Angels 7 0 in overtime. The danceline and the band provided the half time entertainment. Homecoming week concluded with the dance, held on Saturday, Oct. 16, from 9 1:00. The band was Free Flight. This blend of old and new was so successful, perhaps the new will become tradition! Center: Teammates cheer on a strong defense.

This year the answer to that question changed three times. In fact, some people wondered if the annual Sadie Hawkins dance would ever happen. Because of numerous other events like the musical, midterm exams, games and the choirs' performance it was harder than usual to schedule the dance. Even though the Junior class took a lot of criticism for the seeming indecision they weren't discouraged. They managed with very few supplies and much work to put on a great dance December 11th. Costumed students began arriving at 8:00 and when asked What was it like? Was it worth waiting for? Most of them replied Really Great. Super sound system. Do it again. 74 Sadie Page 74: Upper: I do repeat Harry Kaiser and Kim Johnson. Lower Left: Chris Bertch and Lori Jablonski add the final touch. Lower Right: “Hey let us out” holler Paul Foster.

It was Greenwich Village during the early '50's and the setting for the fall musical. “Wonderful Town . In this play by Jerome Chadorov, Ruth and her sister Eileen leave the security of Ohio to make it in New York. These two young, attractive, talented, but very naive girls rent an apartment near a deafening drilling site and begin the process of conquering the City. Their lives are filled with new people; Helen and the Wreck, Frank Lippencott, Bob Baker, Chick Clark plus an assortment of dancers, sailors and Brazilian cadets. A fun jail experience, a wild conga line and romances that are on-again, off-again, on-again and a last minute save by Speedy Valenti keep Ruth and Eileen in New York. 76 Musical Enthusiastic audiences, totaling 800 clapped their approval for the three performances by the fifty member cast, the band and the crew. While the play may have seemed familiar to some of the audience who might have seen the play “My Sister Eileen the music by Leonard Bernstein. Betty Comden and Adolf Green made Wonderful Town” a uniquely enjoyable play. Top: Kevin Kennidy. tells Mary Bedor.

Music Tour 81 Wednesday Morning When the 9:40 AM bell rang on Wednesday, students went to Activity Period instead of their regular C period class. Groups in aerobic dance, creative stitchery. card club, model building, post high school planning and jazz guitar were added to the old standbys of driver education. hunter training, jazz band and study. Students responses to the activity period were mixed. Some students commented, good idea,” nice change from the regular school day while others thought it sort of dumb and boring. Faculty also had mixed feelings about it. One teacher thought it peculiar that so many students choose a study hall over an activity. But approximately three fourths of the student body participated in the activities making this a popular program. Upper: Peter Hames practices for jazz guitar. Lower: Dave Metty, Andy Dols.

Claiming victory over Benilde St. Margaret's 20-14 highlighted the potential of De's well trained offense led by quarterback Matt Kowles and halfbacks Dave Yan-tos and Jeff Cornell. Competitive performances flourished on the Islander football field. It was the defensive unit that allowed De La Salle to compete successfully. Coach Barry Lieske, and his staff guided the players through extensive weight training programs while focusing on a positive mental attitude. Led by Dave Olmstead and Tom McDonough, the defense held strong, holding Holy Angels to a single touchdown in a heartbreaking 6-0 Homecoming loss. Underclassmen fought enthusiastically as well.

The piercing shouts of 'l got it! , the three elements of the game and successful teamwork were carried out by our Volleyball team. The leaders of the pack were: captains: Carol Suek, Molly Hennessy and Theresa O'Neill. Coach Katie Irmiter, the instigator of this special teamwork. was proud of her team's spirit. Their success was greatly measured by an aggressively played season. Unfortunately, statistics and team records were not available. Volleyball is a dynamic sport. Talent is required in quickness, strength and in overall endurance in order to keep up with enemy attacks on the court. Our girls practiced long and hard during the first weeks of Fall to qualify six players for this task.

Cross Country Goes Co-Ed Wonder why girls dressed in sweats were stretching out in the entryway? This year the guys on the cross country team were graced with the presence of FEMALES. It has been nine years since De had a ‘'co-ed” cross country team. Rain or shine, the girls ran through the Metro area with their coach, Angie King. Even though their record didn't show it, spirit and dedication were high. The guys' team did not do as well as expected. They placed fourth out of five in Conference. Coach Gary Myskevitz wondered, “if the poor showing was caused by lack of application, or were the guys distracted by the girls’ team?” Lack of statistics makes it impossible to answer this question.

According to Coach Joe Shrake, team unity, hard work and talent characterized the Varsity’s successful 17-8 season and earned them the District 17A and Region 5A championships. The front line led by captain Dave Peterson with Chris Mazurek, Jeff Baker and Eric Praml was one of the strengths of the team. Credit should also be given for the late season's contributions of transfer student Dave Johnson, in shooting and to Tom Dotray and Chris Dolezol for their floor leadership. Captain Dave Peterson was selected for the Minnesota All Star team and also received a scholarship from the University of Wisconsin at Green Bay. “We reached our team goal — we went to State! summarized Coach Shrake.

Coach Barry Lieske felt that their win-loss record didn’t reflect their effort and dedication to the game. The Varsity team opened with only one returning starter, co-captain Carol Suek. Much of the early season was spent getting needed experience and developing their “team playing skill. The JV team faced many of the same problems with a group of inexperienced starters. The coaching staff felt that this was a “growth year for both teams and that the players kept their positive attitude for the season. The Freshmen showed promise with a 14-5 record. 100 Girls Basketball Page 100 Upper: Peggy Johnson eludes her guard. Lower: Mary Shrake. cocaptain, drives for a basket.

His aggressive fighting proves victorious in winning a takedown. A shift in strength forces a pin. De La Salle executes skill on the mat, taking Brady in a shutout, giving away the six points due to a forfeit. Seniors Steve Williams and Tom Osgood wrestled as co-captains and dominated the middle weights. Demonstrating proper moves and an aggressive style of wrestling was their job. The team was young, made up of only six returning lettermen. “We have a tough schedule and aggressiveness is our only edge, Coach Steve Gothmann informed his squad during a pre-season practice. He, along with Tom Gothmann. encouraged the grapplers and secured a consistent, aggressive attack. Former Islander wrestlers Pat Osgood and Brian Durand also assisted in building the team. A strong finish found Andy Dols champion at 112 lbs. and Tom Osgood runner up at 133 lbs. at the conference tournament. Mike Daly and Bill Moore placed fourth at districts at 119 lbs. and 125 lbs.

Since the idea was formed in the minds of our staff, it is only fitting that they be living examples of it. ' What is it? , you may ask. It” is the everyday effort required in putting out a yearbook. Think of a rainbow in the sky. One doesn’t see the formation of it, nor the beginning and the end, only the result. So it is with the Delta. One doesn't see the formation, nor the hard work and dedication put in by the staff from beginning to end. Just as the separate colors of the rainbow form the look, each person that helped us formed our book of salvaged memories. These colorful people are . .. — Mr. Dave Santos and Mr. Ross Grotbeck for their many hours of picture taking. — Ms. Anne Mueller from Taylor Publishing for her guidance. — The Patroness Society for their donation of $500. — Mr. Johnson, Mr. Gothmann, Mr. Evans for their willingness to take pictures for us. — Ms. Jane Doyle for her inspiration and guidance in copy writing. — Mrs. Braithwaite for all her valuable time spent proofreading. — The Faculty for putting up with so many Delta members missing classes. — The Delta Staff for their many hours, and hours, and hours dedicated to putting out a good yearbook. — Ms. Lundin for writing the copy we didn’t feel like writing, for fixing our layouts that didn’t make sense, and for putting up with us as a whole, and dealing with us separately. We also would like to thank her for being a concrete person and putting up with our airy fairy ideas. For all these things we thank and remember these people.
